Version 3, 29 June 2007
Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
software and other kinds of works.
The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast,
the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to
share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
software for all its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, use the
GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to
any other work released this way by its authors. You can apply it to
your programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you
these rights or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you have
certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if
you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same
freedoms that you received. You must make sure that they, too, receive
or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they
know their rights.
Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:
(1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License
giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains
that there is no warranty for this free software. For both users' and
authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as
changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to
authors of previous versions.
Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer
can do so. This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of
protecting users' freedom to change the software. The systematic
pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to
use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable. Therefore, we
have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those
products. If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we
stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions
of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.
Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.
States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of
software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to
avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could
make it effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL assures that
patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
modification follow.
0. Definitions.
"This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
"Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
works, such as semiconductor masks.
"The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
License. Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and
"recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
on the Program.
To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
public, and in some countries other activities as well.
To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through
a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
1. Source Code.
The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
for making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source
form of a work.
A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
is widely used among developers working in that language.
The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
includes interface definition files associated with source files for
the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
subprograms and other parts of the work.
The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
same work.
2. Basic Permissions.
All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works
for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
makes it unnecessary.
3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
technological measures.
4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
it, and giving a relevant date.
b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
released under this License and any conditions added under section
7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
"keep intact all notices".
c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no
permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
work need not make them do so.
A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
parts of the aggregate.
6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
in one of these ways:
a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
(including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
customarily used for software interchange.
b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
(including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
with subsection 6b.
d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to
copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the
Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
charge under subsection 6d.
A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
included in conveying the object code work.
A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular
product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product
is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
the only significant mode of use of the product.
"Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must
suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
modification has been made.
If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
been installed in ROM).
The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a
network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
protocols for communication across the network.
Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
source code form), and must require no special password or key for
unpacking, reading or copying.
7. Additional Terms.
"Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions
apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
this License without regard to the additional permissions.
When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place
additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
Notices displayed by works containing it; or
c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
authors of the material; or
e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
those licensors and authors.
All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
governed by this License along with a term that is a further
restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains
a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
not survive such relicensing or conveying.
If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
where to find the applicable terms.
Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
the above requirements apply either way.
8. Termination.
You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
paragraph of section 11).
However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
prior to 60 days after the cessation.
Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
your receipt of the notice.
Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
material under section 10.
9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
11. Patents.
A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
this License.
Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
propagate the contents of its contributor version.
In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a
party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
patent against the party.
If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have
actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
country that you have reason to believe are valid.
If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
work and works based on it.
A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered
work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single
combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this
License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,
section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the
combination as such.
14. Revised Versions of this License.
The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
the GNU General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General
Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
version or of any later version published by the Free Software
Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the
GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
by the Free Software Foundation.
If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's
public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
to choose that version for the Program.
Later license versions may give you additional or different
permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
later version.
15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
16. Limitation of Liability.
17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
copy of the Program in return for a fee.
How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
{one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.}
Copyright (C) {year} {name of author}
This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
(at your option) any later version.
This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
GNU General Public License for more details.
You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
along with this program. If not, see .
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short
notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
{project} Copyright (C) {year} {fullname}
This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
parts of the General Public License. Of course, your program's commands
might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box".
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see
The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program
into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you
may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with
the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
Public License instead of this License. But first, please read

Smriti Mandana becomes the first Indian player to play in Kia Super League, England. The Indian opener will play for Western Storm in the upcoming season.
The 21 years old has really been in a great form right from her return from injury, especially this year where she even captained IPL Trailblazers in the T20 challenge which happened ahead of the IPL qualifier one.
Talking about this, Smriti Mandana said: "I am very excited to be playing for the Kia Super League champions. To be the first Indian player to appear in the tournament is a real honour and I hope that I can help Western Storm to more success."
Mandana has featured in Women's Big Bash League earlier where she played for Brisbane Heat.

"Precious Dens Animal Hospice"
Most of you already know that we are hosting our annual fundraiser Sunday October 16th from 4pm-8pm at Kobasic's Candy at 5324 Riverside Blvd Sacramento Ca 95822. The fundraiser will include 30's, 40's, and 50's Danceband music, Mexican Cuisine and refreshments all for the low donation price of $20 per person 16 yrs old older and free children entrance with adults (maximum one child per each paying adult please). We will hold a silent auction with hundreds of lovely donated items from gold and sterling to diamonds and costume jewelry as well as art, antiques, furniture, post cards, and household items to include useful animal needs like crates and costumes.
We hope each of you will consider donating a little something for our auction and if you are not certain you want to come to the fundraiser, at least send a small check or money order for the cause of animal hospice care of ESH PO Box 22213 Sacramento Ca 95822. The checks can be made payable to either Mitch Prefach (head of "Precious Dens Hospice") or to Estate Sales Help and we will forward the donation to the folks who will benefit from our fundraiser.
Please feel free to send a note as well. At the bottom of this page is a 'wish list' of all items she is in great need of to further her love, protection, and care of these older animals in such need of constant supervision and care…both financially, physically and emotionally. You may drop any of these off at the fundraiser next Sunday the 16th or we can have someone pick them up from your house if you email Jennie at this same website.
Not many of us can boast the history of detail or attention that Mitch can for spending the majority of her life making every second better for each animal she comes into contact with. She cares for not only feral cats and kittens, dumped dogs and puppies, elderly mutts, goats and roosters, she is one of the most compassionate women I have ever had the pleasure of meeting.
Our own Dr. John Menke and crew from Franklin Animal Hospital (who was to benefit from this fundraiser initially) got us into contact with Mitch who is simply adorable and fearless all at once. He felt that the monies made from this charity event would be much better suited going towards her hospice program than to anyone else. The others need help, but not the magnitude that hers does. Mitch's goals to keep every animal from suffering that crosses her path and to make each life a bit more palatable shows in waves of generosity and effort once you spend even a minute of your time with this lovely ex-police woman and ex-actress. She is truly a treat to behold.
Luckily for many of you who will be coming to our fundraiser, Mitch will be there with a couple of rescued animals in tow on Sunday night the 16th to meet with you guys and explain her cause further and answer any of your questions you may have. We are excited to introduce you all to her via our slideshow taken at her house just this morning.
Keep coming by the site to view new photos of the event and our silent auction offerings to be updated daily.
Below is the current wish list of this hospice foundation….bring them by the fundraiser if you like or simply call and we will arrange a pick up!
Extra BIG hopes and prayers…
23. Trees
24. Misc. lumber for barn repairs.
25. lawn tools
26. fencing
27. irrigation piping
28. mops
29. refrigerator
30. cargo van (to bring more doggies on doggie rides).
Many thanks for being there to assist us in our efforts to protect the critters.
Thanks for your help
Jen and crew
"A Man Only Has The Right To Look Down On Another Man, While He Is Helping Him To Get Up"
Gabriel Garcia Marques 2011
Our company and business model strives to help the less fortunate by way of assisting them in any way possible week after week and year after year. We opt to host an annual estate sale where all proceeds are donated directly to the needy and or a local charity.
In the past few years, we have succeeded with helping Loaves And Fishes with thousands of dollars going to help their mustard seed program and to feed and clothe the homeless. Our company has hosted a charity with all hours and items donated by our crew and clients that has assisted local feral kitten rescue programs to the tune of $6,000. We have raised money for schools, building parks, feeding, housing and clothing local homeless and also those simply less fortunate than you and I.
Just like you and I, these people want a good life. Not unlike you or myself, they want a decent life for their children, their loved ones and themselves. What is the main difference then, between these people who sleep on the street and ask for free food? Choices, luck, circumstance and heritage. If not for your choices, luck, upbringing and how it affected you or I, we too might fall short on our luck and be in their situation.
Once you find the realization that bad luck and circumstance could come upon any one of us, you may find it in your heart to be a bit more compassionate for these men, women and children who live amongst us, walk between us, beg before us. After you have come to accept and understand their plight, maybe see what you have in your life that you could give up to these people to make their lives a bit better place to be.
Whether it be food, clothing, blankets, sleeping bags, toiletries or any useful small household item (most live entirely out of a shopping or mobile book cart and their whole lives must fit inside it) you may feel free to drop it by the storefront any time we are open and we shall pass it on, free of charge to our neighbors. We also give free toys, baby clothes, formula, lotions, hotel soaps and bath items, and whatever they ask for, to the homeless and helpless people who come ask us for assistance. They are very grateful and gracious and we find it a privilege to have been of help to them.
When you do come to visit our sales, we ask that you bring along any extra hotel soaps or shampoos you may have sitting around, any paper products you do not need including plastic forks and utensils. The soup kitchen is always in constant need of these supplies. Also due to the fact that Loaves And Fishes reuses china coffee cups, any you can spare to be given to them will be greatly appreciated. Our goal then is to better the lives of the people we embrace daily and brighten the smile of even one of their small children.
If you should feel so inclined to share your abundance with any of our neighbors but don't have the ability to drop your items for charity at our sales, please feel free to e-mail or call us for a pickup whenever it is most convenient for you. Remember, "There but for the grace of God, go I."
Jennie, and Crew

I would change the local Admin password by using the chntpw utility.
Having changed from the domain to the workgroup it is now assuming the user is a local user and not a domain user. try putting your domain infront of you login name domain/name (or is it domain\name) try both.
There are several boot CDs out there that will allow you to change passwords – your IT dept should be able to point you in the right direction.
Using domain\username won't work now as it's not a member of a domain. Likewise, you won't have the option to choose a domain in the logon box either as Local Machine is the only option. When you finally logon, if you like, you can revert back to the fluffy logon buttons and fast user switching from the User Accounts section in the Control Panel.

Although Italian calzones are more famous world-wide, there exist so many more variation in the Arab world.
These Egyptian hawawshi (حواوشي) are pastry pockets filled with a simple meat mixture.
I adapted the recipe from Pretty Scraps, but I had my own leftover filling from a bourag so I used that.
Feel free to use your own filling, raw or cooked, but I have provided the original recipe below.
This makes a perfect contribution to an afternoon tea or snack.
For the dough:
3 cups flour
3 Tbsp powder milk
1 Tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
3 tsp instant dried yeast
1/4 cup vegetable or olive oil
1 cup warm water
For the meat:
1/2 kilo minced meat
1 big diced onions
1/2 cup chopped parsley
1 medium green pepper
1 medium tomato (optional)
1 tsp salt and black pepper to taste
To make the dough, put all the ingredients in a food processor and blitz until a dough is formed, then blitz for 1-2 minutes longer.
Remove the dough, form into a ball, put in an oiled bowl and let rise for about an hour until doubled in size.
Prepare the filling by mixing all the ingredients together.
Preheat oven to 500F.
Divide the dough into four balls; divide the filling into four.
Roll each ball of dough into a circle about half centimeter thick, spread a portion of the meat on one half.
Fold the pastry over the filling to create a pocket, and crimp the edges with a fork.
Poke the surface with a fork to create breathing space.
Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
Bake your pockets in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, then a couple more (1-2) under the broiler for color.
Cool for 5 minutes before eating.

Lilith Moon, also known as a hair guru on YouTube, decided to share some of her experience with Fameiva and its readers. Inspiring yet simple her story begins with her home town Kiev in Ukraine. She did her studies in Poland and Italy and currently she lives in Paris, France. She claims she fell in love with the majestic capital of France… But well, who wouldn't?
As one of the most notorious YouTube hair gurus it was natural to ask. How did it all start?
"When I have first discovered the entire YouTube beauty community, there were hardly any hair tutorials, only makeup and vlogs. I noticed that those very few hair styling videos were very well received by viewers and instantly felt like I could make my own contribution and share hair styling techniques that I learned modeling for hair shows in Milan and Paris. When I was a teenager, hair styling secrets were those best kept ones, and even though I dreamed about beautiful braids and updo's, I had no clue how to do them. I imagined how happy I'd be back then if someone would teach me their beauty tricks and felt that it was my call to share mine."
As a part-time model for hair shows she has an unique opportunity to learn many beauty tricks from the top international stylists and share them with her viewers. She started modeling in Milan, and currently does that in Paris and, since she has been participating in a number of workshops and shows where hairstylists try various hair techniques on her, she enjoys the opportunity to learn. Learning new hair trends from the first hands is a great boost for her own creativity and brings a lot of inspiration to all her work, encouraging her to move on and strive on her own.
Quality is the word of the day when it comes to Lilith Moon and she does not do thing half way- quality content – easy to follow videos which are straight to the point. She pays a lot of attention to every detail and spend a lot of time editing each single video.
"It is extremely rewarding to know that my videos are so well received. I always stay attentive to my viewers' requests and suggestions that help me to keep on improving my videos", shares Lilith.
Is it hard to execute certain braids on yourself as a pro? Have you ever given up on a braid because it was just too difficult?
"Funny enough, usually it works other way around. I take a look at a hairstyle and think it's impossible to do something that complex on your own hair, but then so many people keep on requesting a tutorial on this look, that finally I give it a go and find out that with a little bit of practice and patience it's actually doable! I still choose to focus on not-too-challenging looks so that the majority of my viewers could recreate them as well in a reasonable amount of time."
As words of advice to all girls/boys having the aspiration to open a YouTube channel and be successful Lilith Moon gives some good pointers:
"It's important to do something you're good at (not just something you want to do…personally, I'd love to be a singer (but I doubt I'd have many followers if I had chosen that instead of hair tutorials) and share it with the world in your own way. Then, just listen to your viewers and they'll tell you all you need to know ".
Lilith Moon is a great inspiration for many young women. Having more than 200,000 fans she is not planning to stop at this point and enjoy the fruits of her work and success: she wants more!.. Having experience and knowledge from the beauty industry, she is dreaming and planning to produce hair products and make her own brand. "It would be great to create my own brand and offer high-quality products. In my dreams I'd like to create a product that would magically thicken naturally thin hair like my own! Or a selection of beautiful toners to revive your hair color at home – there is a very poor choice of toners on the market and that's a pity since I'm sure many girls would like to change the shade of their hair every once in a while, or just keep it as vibrant as it was right after colorization. But for the time being I have so many hair styling ideas that I'd like to share with the world that in the nearest future I plan to stick to making videos, so fans keep waiting a bit because videos will come and come for a long time."
To her Fans: "I would like to thank my followers for all their support – you guys became a huge part of my life, a part that I truly love and am very passionate about! You are my greatest inspiration and your feedback is what helped my channel grow into what it is now."
See her Latest video here and if you too like what you see subscribe and who knows, maybe this will give you ideas to pursue a dream?

Drones Are Transforming News Media
Due to the evolution of drones and the drone cases for extra portability, the media now have a new means to approach and cover a story, providing consumers with new angles, both literally and figuratively, on the news as it's happening. A few stories from last year highlight this trend:
Drones Are Transforming News Media
The New York Times made extensive use of drones in media coverage and highlighted how the new technology made this reporting possible. A story on the impact of the Syrian Civil War on Aleppo captured using drone footage was featured on the front page, and, realizing the impact drones had on coverage, the newspaper put together a list of top stories it told through drone footage across the world.
CNN launched a team dedicated to flying and operating drones as part of expanded news coverage. The news network used drones as a way of augmenting its traditional television coverage, providing the benefits of traditional aerial vehicles such as planes and helicopters, and the improved vantage point they can provide, but for a fraction of the cost.
Drones were also the cause of governmental action, with police and local authorities imposing no-fly zones to forestall the possibility of media coverage using drones. During civil unrest in 2014 in Ferguson, MI, police requested that airspace be closed off to prevent media from gathering footage. Similarly, authorities instituted no-fly zones in the vicinity of protests at Standing Rock, ND, which protestors and journalists claimed were to prevent coverage of the protests and the acts of police.
Using drones is already transforming the media, and that will only increase as drones become more widespread and technically able. As authorities are forced to create regulations that permit more widespread use of drones, this trend will only increase moving forward. Drones are not just toys, but enterprise tools as well as part of a new wave in media.
Drones turned the corner in 2015 to become a popular consumer device, while a framework for regulation that legitimizes drones in the US began to take shape. Technological and regulatory barriers still exist to further drone adoption.
Drone manufacturers and software providers are quickly developing technologies like geofencing and collision avoidance that will make flying drones safer. The accelerating pace of drone adoption is also pushing governments to create new regulations that balance safety and innovation.
Safer technology and better regulation will open new applications for drones in the commercial sector, including drone delivery programs like Amazon's Prime Air and Google's Project Wing initiatives.
BI Intelligence, Business Insider's premium research service, has compiled a detailed drone report that forecasts sales revenues for consumer, enterprise, and military drones. It also projects the growth of drone shipments for consumers and enterprises.
The report details several of world's major drone suppliers and examines trends in drone adoption among several leading industries. Finally, it examines the regulatory landscape in several markets and explains how technologies like obstacle avoidance and drone-to-drone communications will impact drone adoption.

We have a West Highland Terrier (aka a "Westie") that we adopted through the Humane Society in Portland about 2 years ago. His previous owners named him Duffy and they worked with him very well to learn the right things to do, and what not to do. He is now about 7 years old.
Duffy is a spontaneous character, often barking before anything has happened, and dramatically exploding out of a sound sleep into an attack strategy launched upon one of his toys, shaking it to shreds while doing his best lion-with-fresh-prey imitation.
He is a fun dog… most of the time.
He does however have his days where his little heart and mind turn a few shades darker, and he becomes a rebellious little punk. A cute punk, but still a punk.
Here is a lesson from Duffy: when he is scolded and reprimanded for doing what he KNOWS is wrong (but he does it anyway!), he does not run away from us. Instead he walks right up to us, tail down and head down, and getting as close to us as he can, he sits right next to our feet. He leans into us, complete with a look of "sorry" on his face and his tail signaling an "oops, I did it again, didn't I?" kind of message.
Each time it reminds me of how many times in life I've had some days where my heart and mind were a few shades darker, and I became a rebellious little punk in God's eyes. Sure, He still loved me, He still thought I was cute (just like my Mom always thinks that I am cute too!), but I was also being a punk.
When we have those times in life when God has to scold us and reprimand us for our times of rebellion, how often do we experience the urge to run away and hide? Adam and Eve ran away and hid themselves from God after their rebellious day, and we have the same propensity.
God wants our response to be similar to Duffy's: He wants us to approach Him, not with excuses ("What's the big deal?") or distractions ("Oh look, God, a squirrel!"), but with a contrite heart, leaning into Him, snuggling up close to Him.
Sometimes I wonder if Duffy might be better at this post-rebellion routine than most human beings. We really appreciate his return after the fact. How much more does God appreciate our return in like manner!

It's been two days since the start of the NHL season and the biggest storyline seems to be goaltending. Four of the league's most elite goaltenders were pulled on opening day, including Henrik Lundvist, Jimmy Howard, Cam Ward, and the all-too-ironic Cory Schneider. In addition to the goalies that were pulled, Jonathan Quick let up five goals, something that only happened a handful of times last season, and Mike Smith gave up six to the Chicago Blackhawks, causing the following tantrum:
Via Puck Daddy
It's evident that goalies are the ones who suffered the most throughout the lockout. With no preseason, it will likely take a few games for them to get back into the swing of things. However, Josh Harding of the Minnesota Wild posted a shutout in his first game since being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. This is going to be an awesome storyline to follow this season, especially now that Minnesota has all the pieces it needs to be a Stanley Cup contender.
A few bold predictions (because it's two days into the season and over-analysis is at an all-time high):
- If everyone can stay healthy, the Edmonton Oilers will make the playoffs for the first time since 2006. Aside from the incredible young talent up front in Eberle, Hall, Gagner, Yakupov, and a healthy Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, the Oilers finally have some depth on defense with rookie Justin Schultz. Devan Dubnyk is the real question mark for this team. He was great in the shootout last night vs. the Vancouver Canucks, but needs to be consistent if he wants to take over the # 1 spot. Nikolai Khabibulin is a good alternative, but he's 40 years old… the Oilers need to know if Dubnyk can be the # 1 guy moving forward.
- Roberto Luongo will not be traded (but probably should be). Having two # 1 goaltenders is certainly not the worst problem to have, but when you're paying one of them close to $7 million for the 2013 season, it might be worth taking a chance on the other one. There are plenty of other teams that could highly benefit from the services of Roberto Luongo, but it seems as though the Canucks aren't as concerned with getting rid of Luongo as the media is. Canucks GM Mike Gillis told ESPN.com, "It's a completely media-driven notion that we have to do this quickly and it's going to be a terrible situation [if Luongo starts the season in Vancouver]. It wasn't a terrible situation last year and it won't be this year if he's here."
- The Red Wings will barely make the playoffs and lose in the first round. I want to predict that they will miss the playoffs altogether, but it wouldn't be very wise to bet against Pavel Datsyuk and Henrik Zetterberg. Jimmy Howard will need to have a career season in net and learn what it's like to play without Nick Lidstrom in front of him. He'll be seeing a lot more shots than he's used to.
- Sidney Crosby will suffer a career-ending concussion. Just kidding.
- Patrick Kane will stay out of trouble and have his best season yet. Everyone knows Patrick Kane to be one of the best
partiersplayers around the league, but we certainly haven't seen the best of him. Kane admits that he is more focused on hockey now than he was on Cinco de Mayo and at 24 years old, he will stop passing out in bars. At a press conference in July, Kane told the world, "I want to be somebody who can be a role model to kids and to everyone, for that matter."
- The Pittsburgh Penguins will win the Stanley Cup.

Growing up around Fayetteville, I can remember several places where we had apple trees growing in our yards. Those trees didn't produce the big pretty apples that you see in the grocery stores today, but they tasted much better than anything I can seem to find now.
The yellow Golden Delicious has always been my favorite. I can still remember picking one up off the ground and biting into it, juice dripping down my chin. That golden sweet goodness often came with a price though. You might find a worm that also thought it was a good apple. Worm holes and bruised spots were just things you ate around back then.
The very smell and taste of apple butter take me back to those days of my youth. Mama made apple pies for us sometimes. Daddy would often make apple hand pies when he was in the mood for cooking. Most of those old bruised and spotted apples were collected for drying, or making apple jelly and apple butter.
Apple butter is much easier to make than you might think. For this recipe, we'll start by picking out some apples from the North Carolina State Farmers Market. We'll basically make applesauce first. Then we'll wait until day two to cook it down into apple butter. Spreading the process out over two days makes it easier to manage for us old folks. We've got the recipe for making it here, plus you can visit Taste of Southern for the full step-by-step, photo illustrated recipe for making and canning some delicious apple butter of your own. It makes a great gift too.
So, if you're ready, let's bring back some memories in the kitchen, and make up a batch of apple butter for all of the family to enjoy. Let's get cooking!
What you'll need to make the dish:
- 5 lbs. apples
- 2 cups water
- 1 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 3 1/2 cups white granulated sugar, adjust as needed according to to instructions
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 teaspoon ground allspice
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 lemon, zest plus juice
Apple Butter Recipe (PDF).
You'll find a large variety of apples at the North Carolina State Farmers Market, or at many roadside produce stands around the area. North Carolina is blessed to have such a great selection of apples.
Some folks say you should use a variety of apples when making an apple butter recipe. I purchased a box of Jonagold "seconds" when I visited the market. They had a few spots, which were cut away, but they make great apple butter and shouldn't be overlooked when shopping. Don't be afraid to ask one of the vendors if they have any. They're not often left out on display.
I've won a couple of ribbons with this recipe. Just a few weeks back, I entered a jar from the last batch I made into the Lee Regional Fair. It won a blue ribbon, so I'm happy to classify this as "award winning apple butter."
You'll need to slice up the apples, removing any really bad spots. Toss the slices into a sauce pot, add some water and a little vinegar and cook the apples down.
This part will not take very long. Just cook the apples until they are good and soft. Really firm apples will need a little longer to cook, and you'll want to keep stirring them as they cook down.
Once cooked, run the apples through a food mill, or something similar, to remove the skins and seeds. The resulting pulp is basically applesauce at this point. If you don't have a sieve or food mill, you can still make apple butter. You'll find an alternate method that might even be a bit easier for you, over on Taste of Southern.
After the mixture had cooled, I wrapped it in plastic wrap and placed it in the refrigerator overnight.
After adding the spices to the applesauce mixture, it will need to slowly cook down to remove most of the water. This step could take 5-7 hours to complete, and you'll need to keep stirring it ever so often. The results will be worth the effort, so stay with it. Plus, your house will smell AWESOME while this cooks.
Once it's cooked down to your liking, ladle the apple butter into some jars and process it for storage. It could also be frozen if desired, or just placed in the refrigerator for use over the next couple of months.
Canning is a great way to preserve foods without using all of the chemical additives you'll find in the store bought varieties. You'll appreciate the taste of homemade spread, and enjoy the satisfaction of knowing that you made it yourself. I'll give you the step-by-step for the entire process when you click here. I do hope you'll try it, and I look forward to hearing your comments in the section below. Enjoy!

Another woman was killed,
here in my town.
By the person
who said he loved her most,
of course.
Where is the outrage?
It's like that slogan
about military bake sales.
There will be no need
for vigils or benefit concerts
when people stop
killing each other.
Stop it. Stop it!
We'll blow out the candles.
No one will hurt and cower
or spend each day in fear.
Only living and loving well.
We can organize that bake sale
to benefit the PTO.

The Best Michigan Cheeseburger is NOT in Caseville!
A Quest for A Great Bar Burger
A couple of years ago our ThumbWind blog published a post that rattled the establishment in Caseville by stating that one of Michigan's best burgers came from the Hitching Post in Elkton. At that time the locally famous burger chef, "Jewels" made a cheeseburger so tasty that local golfers defected from golfing at Century Oaks (which was close to Hitching Post) to Scenic Golf Club when she started cooking and tending bar at Scenic. Those were gentler and tender times. We miss Jewels and wish her well.
This morning, after hitting the Farmers Market in Port Austin and White Church Gallery in Grindstone City we stopped by Shelley's Bar. What a cool stop. Okay… I admit that the outside needs a bit more curb appeal. But stepping into this roadside tavern you can tell that the locals love this place. They had just finished a breakfast run and were shifting to lunch when we came in.
Clean, comfortable and friendly, are the first thoughts that came to mind as we settled in. Our server came in within a minute and we ordered an ice cold Molson drafts. "So cold your teeth ached.", one of us noted. The highlights of the lunch were their wonderful "Turkey Reuben, while the sage diner among us ordered a cheeseburger medium with mustard and pickles.
Cheery, Clean and Comfortable
As we were leaving, our cheeseburger connoisseur flagged down our server and asked to speak to the manager. Jackie came over and with a quizzed look ask if everything was OK. Our seasoned cheeseburger snob stated…."this is the best I've had all week, it's excellent!" No small feat has this guy is a known as a regular at the world famous Councils in Bradenton, Florida. Jackie was gracious and explained that they get a special grind from McDonald Food and Family Center in Bad Axe and that they searched several times before they settled in with this well known local grocer. She credited the team in the kitchen has where all the magic happens.
So we have a new Best Cheeseburger in Huron County tagged as coming from Shelley's Bar in Grindstone City. Their ice cold beer and fresh cut fries round out a great experience. It's also evident that Shelly's support local charities and sports teams around the Upper Thumb. ThumbWind will be back from time to time to ensure that they are the Best of the Upper Thumb.

London-listed gaming solution provider Playtech has agreed an €846.0m deal to acquire Italian gaming operator Snaitech.
The company has reached an agreement with Snaitech shareholders Global Games and OI Games to acquire their 70.6 per cent shareholding in the business, which will be followed by a mandatory takeover offer for the remaining shares.
The overall transaction is expected to complete in the fourth quarter or this year and will be funded by a combination of existing cash resources and new debt facilities.
"The acquisition of Snaitech represents the continuation of our strategy to invest in leading retail brands in fast growing, regulated markets," said Playtech chief executive Mor Weizer.
"The acquisition delivers the board's strategic objective to improve the quality and diversification of group revenue, whilst delivering exposure to high growth end markets, by utilising the strength of Playtech's balance sheet."
The acquisition values Snaitech at €846.0m, equivalent to an implied EV/EBITDA of 6.2x, and is expected to deliver annual cost synergies of €10.0m. The business, which merged with Italian rival Cogetech last year, generated revenue of €889.6m in 2017 with EBITDA of €132.7m.
Playtech said that the acquisition will create the first vertically integrated retail and online gaming business in the Italian market and enhance its regulated market revenue mix to approximately 80 per cent of the enlarged group's FY17 pro-forma revenue.
The acquisition of the initial 70.6 per cent shareholding is subject to Playtech shareholder approval and receipt of any relevant approval from anti-trust authorities, as well as the consent of the Italian gaming regulator.
Commenting on the agreement, Snaitech chief executive Fabio Schiavolin said: "This acquisition reflects Snaitech's position as one of the leading and best known brands in Italy and delivers meaningful value to our shareholders.
"The combination of Playtech's technology and experience in Italy with Snaitech's powerful brand mean we will be better able to capture the online opportunity in the fast growing and dynamic Italian market. We are pleased to be joining the Playtech team and look to the future with confidence and excitement."
"Playtech has always been at the forefront of its industry and the acquisition offers the opportunity to create a vertically integrated B2B2C operator in Europe's largest gambling market, delivering significant value to shareholders," Weizer added.
Shares in Playtech plc. (LSE:PTEC) closed in London Wednesday up 2.61 per cent at 761.40 pence per share, while shares in Snaitech SpA (MIL:SNA) closed down 3.90 per cent at €1.87 per share in Milan.

The Marmoset in Neuroscience
The fourth International conference of the Institut de Neurosciences de la Timone (INT) will be dedicated to The Marmoset in Neuroscience.
The marmoset monkey emerges as an increasingly promising model for fundamental as well as clinical neuroscience research. There is a large international development in this area with initiatives such as the Japan's Brain/MINDS project. The Institut de Neurosciences de la Timone is one of the leading primate research Center in France and is closely following this evolution.
It will be the first event of this kind to be organized in France with the aim of presenting the state-of-the-art in this area of exciting methodological and scientific developments. The Conference is open to all neuroscientists already working with non-human primates, as well as those interested in learning more about this model and his potentials.
Eighteen lectures by leading international experts will present over two days recent advances with this promising emerging model.
Lectures are organized in four sessions each introduced by a Keynote Lecture by a prominent expert: Cortical Network Structure& Function (Keynote: Marcello Rosa, Australia), Genetics & Pathology (Keynote: Hideyuki Okano, Japan), Social Behavior & Hormones (Keynote: Judith Burkart, Switzerland), and Vocal Perception & Control (Keynote: Xiaoqin Wang, USA).

A look back at 'summer'
Posted on September 18 2012 at 2:19:24 0 comments
Now that we're into autumn, it's a good time to take a look back at the "summer" of 2012 (June, July and August). Some statistics for those three months combined:
June, July and August 2012
Mean Max 19.2C 0.7C below average
Mean Min 11.3C 0.1C above average
Mean 15.3C 0.7C below average
Rainfall 387.5mm 224% of average
Sunshine 308.8hrs 70% of average
August 2012
Mean Max 20.6C 0.7C below average
Mean Min 12.5C 0.8C above average
Mean 16.5C exactly average
Rainfall 95.3mm 183% of average
Sunshine 106.5hrs 71% of average
August was a very unremarkable month with temperatures near or around the mean for the month. Again quite a wet month with 95.3mm of rain, i.e. 183% of the 20-year mean.
It was also a poor month for sunshine levels, following on from the rest of the summer – 106.5 hours, i.e. 71% of the 20-year average.
There were four days with thunder which is quite a high number for this area, the average being only five or six for the entire year, the last couple of years being even less than this.
September 2012 (to the 17th)
Mean Max 20.1C 1.9C above average
Mean Min 8.8C 0.8C below average
Mean 14.5C 0.6C above average
Rainfall 9.1mm only 15% of average
Sunshine 105.3hrs 86% of average
September so far has been divided. The first week was very warm for this time of year with temperatures well above average, with a change around the 10th to more normal September weather with brighter but cooler days.
The overall temperature has been staying above average so far, being very much drier than the last three months with only just over 9mm of rain so far. Sunshine has been more plentiful than during the "summer" with 86% of the entire month's sunshine already.
The outlook is for a similar type of weather pattern, with near-normal temperatures and slightly less rainfall than we have been used to during the summer. Further into the future, the computer models are too variable to be certain.

BY Dr Tomi Oladepo:
As much as we might like to romanticise about how digital media products and services bring "disruption" and upset traditional models of running everyday life as-we-know it, I'm here to say that Neflix and other screen streaming services will not be killing the Television anytime soon.
1. The need for LIVE
Television is more than entertainment. It today's media economy, it might appear that video-on-demand is all the rave. Gone are the days we waited for the next episode of a favourite show in the coming week. Now we just binge-watch House of Cards on Netflix and get over it. However, there has been no substitute for live news and reports yet. Some might say we make up for this through following live updates online. In fact, I have observed news premiere on Twitter before traditional news organisations caught on. Yet, until there's a substitute for live news reportage, the TV as a broadcast channel (not just a box to stream Netflix) will remain relevant.
2. Local news is still news
It is no news that CNN and the other media big boys underreport certain parts of the world except it's something catastrophic – a disease outbreak or war. Local television stations provide the perspective that is found missing on global media platforms. Yes, citizen journalists now churn local news on blogs and Twitter, especially reports that do not make it to traditional local channels. However, once again, access to live TV news on events happening locally is not a demand digital streaming services are meeting at the moment. For this reason, TV, especially local TV, is not going to bow to the new digital kid on the block (just yet).
3. The internet is not (affordable) everywhere
The Internet is not available everywhere, and where it is, it's not affordable for everyone. Video streaming services such as Netflix, thrive on a substantial chunk of data and a decent monthly fee. Without access to stable internet infrastructure, it's a bit far-fetched to imagine how the Television that "streams" with power supply at the minimum, will become extinct. The digital divide is still very much with us, and needs to be tackled first before we can imagine this scale of disruption of old media.
4. It is all converging
Whether you stream the BBC from the internet, or watch it via Sky Box (satellite), you are still tuned into traditional television. This convergence demonstrates that TV will not be left behind in any form. As the idea of media evolves, I foresee the Television (and radio) adapting with the times in order to remain relevant.
I believe that of all old media platforms, the paper book might be the worst hit with the introduction of eBooks. Yet even then, eBooks are not finding it that easy to disrupt, because of people like me who are loyal to both formats. I won't be quick to dismiss any medium of communication just yet. It might change gradually, but it's not likely to become extinct anytime soon. I'm glad Mashable (the inspiration for this post) also agrees.

How to treat PROBLEM FRIENDS!!!!!
For the friend who only brings misery, and refuses to be soothed, you have a couple of choices: The first is to be the model of a good friend. Be upfront and honest with your friend and tell her or him that they are bringing you down and taking the joy out of your friendship. If your words are ineffective and the complaining continues, you may have to make a tough decision. If you're at the point where being alone is preferable to this friend's company, you can disengage from the friendship. Be busy when the friend calls, be unavailable for future plans, and when interaction is unavoidable, listen politely as long as circumstances dictate, and make a get-away as diplomatically as possible. You probably don't want to provide any additional material for your friend's next rendition of the "bad life blues."
Friends tolerate an awful lot from one another, but there are some rules for which consequences must be enforced. Don't let a friend suck the joy out of your life just because that's how they add satisfaction to their own.
