Sure, everyone knows that money makes the world go round. But when you think about it, while it may be the biggest industry in the world it's been running things pretty much the same way since Columbus got a loan for that boat ride of his. So if you get excited when you hear about innovations in e-commerce, mobile payments, and finance, then listen up friend, cause I want to make you an offer.
Over Halloween weekend, Money 20/20 is throwing an epic hackathon full of so many goodies and big cash prizes that even the pit boss at a high rollers room would be jealous. Hundreds of super talented developers, designers and entrepreneurs will convene on the Vegas strip to build all sorts of FinTech and eCommerce innovations, using APIs and SDKs from names like PayPal, Mastercard, Mercury Payments and Modo Payments.
There will be up to 10 winning teams- one for each sponsoring company- with winners receiving up to five $20,000 and up to five $5,000 cash prizes. Wait...it gets better. Qualified participants can get up to a $250 travel stipend! Not. Kidding. They're literally gonna pay you to check this thing out.
You got this right? Pause here and reread if you don't believe it.
The overall winning team will get a chance to demo its creation in front of thousands of investors, media and other big time FinTech players as part of Money 20/20's exclusive Launchpad360 program. Last year's participants have gone on to raise over $40 million in venture funding. Not too shabby eh?
So yeah, this is one hackathon that is not to be missed. If you want to disrupt how payments, financial services and commerce is done, all while taking in the excitement of Sin City, then we'll see you in Vegas...if you can get a ticket before it sells out, of course.
So hurry up - you can get more info and your ticket here.

Beware bitcoin tax scammers
The ATO has issued a warning to beware of scammers impersonating the ATO and demanding Bitcoin or other cryptocurrency as a form of payment for fake tax debts, with over $50,000 already paid in Bitcoin to scammers claiming fake ATO tax debts.
Because cryptocurrency operate in a virtual world, once the scammers receive payment, it's virtually impossible to get it back (yes, pun intended).
Last year the ATO received over 80,000 reports of scams, with taxpayers reporting almost $2.4 million lost to scammers claiming to be from the ATO.
Other versions of fake tax debt scams that you should be aware of include:
- demands for payment via iTunes cards;
- or with a pre-paid Visa gift cards remain the most frequently reported.
- demands for direct deposits into third-party bank accounts;

Mount Vernon mayor accuses comptroller of not paying city billsPosted: Updated:
Mount Vernon Mayor Richard Thomas is accusing Comptroller Deborah Reynolds of not paying the city's bills.
Thomas insists the city has at least $1 million in unpaid bills that Reynolds has refused to pay. He says because of her inaction, a truck that the Department of Public Works used to fix street lights was repossessed.
The mayor also accused Reynolds of not cutting checks to city employees, including the planning commissioner and the city engineer and three fire inspectors, which he insists is putting residents in real danger.
Reynolds says Thomas is a liar, that there are not $1 million in unpaid bills, and if there are any bills that are late, it's because the mayor refuses to sign the checks so she can send them out.
Reynolds says she believes the mayor is attacking her to distract the public from his criminal case, which is now in the courts.
Thomas says he's considering calling for a change to the city's charter so that the comptroller's office could be abolished. He does admit that he doesn't have the authority to do it alone.

Blair parents gained helpful insights from a math presentation by then PUSD Math Coach (and former Blair teacher), Ms. Noemi Montaño Orduña. Ms. Orduña is now a PUSD principal but still a Blair parent. She encourages all parents to work at helping their children be successful in math, and emphasizes she cannot rely on her own background as a math teacher to stay on top of how her own two children are doing in math. All parents can stay informed and engaged, and use questions to build their child's problem solving skills.

Mine water applications require specialised pumping technology. Katrina Zlobich, business development manager, Grundfos, talks to Water&Sanitation Africa about Grundfos' holistic offering to the mining industry.
What are the challenges South Africa faces when it comes to addressing mine water?
KZ Mine processes create acid mine drainage – the acidic water that is created when sulfide minerals are exposed to air and water through a natural chemical reaction. Mine water effluent needs to be treated for reuse within the plant or safe discharge to the environment to avoid contaminating other natural resources.
The cost of energy means that water treatment technologies and associated products, particularly pumps, should be as energy-efficient as possible. For a long-term solution, sustainability is vital to any system and, as such, the selection of processes and products plays a big role in overall sustainability.
Which processes and stages of mining does Grundfos offer pumping solutions for?
Grundfos is a world leader in the supply of pumping solutions for mine water utilities, from raw water intake to water treatment, recycling and disposal. We offer mining companies a long-term partnership, which includes the expertise to meet their needs in every requirement for a reliable pump solution, be it for surface, open-pit or underground mining. Grundfos pumps are built to last, even under the toughest working conditions.
Apart from initial transport and slurry pumps, Grundfos can supply to all processes and stages at the mine, even if water contains abrasives such as sand or is in a low pH environment, for aggressive media, such as leachate solutions, or liquids used for cleaning and maintenance.
A partnership with Grundfos will offer an individual approach to each customer and a solution to any application. We offer great reliability and robust solutions, which ensure a high level of security for operations.
What products and solutions does Grundfos offer for mine applications?
Grundfos offers a variety of products for mine applications, such as:
Mine water utility and water treatment: There are several different methods for mine water treatment, including precipitation, reverse osmosis and ion exchange. Grundfos can supply pump solutions from submersible to end-suction pumps as well as our state-of-the-art vertical multistage centrifugal range (CR). This year, we are launching a larger Grizzly CR pump range, which offers a maximum flow up to 225 m3/h and up to 40 bar pressure.
Mine water treatment includes a variety of chemical dosing. Our complete range of dosing solutions can cover small to large applications in basic or advanced functionality, depending on customers' needs. To insure compliance with water-quality requirements, we offer the Grundfos DID online water analyser, which can be fitted with a variety of sensors, able to measure up to three different water parameters on single controller.
Open-pit drainage/dewatering: Grundfos dewatering pumps are designed to work in the toughest environments and can be found in mining applications and offshore industries worldwide. We can supply dewatering pumps for durable use and heavy flows that can be installed dry or submerged, available in higher-grade material and anti-corrosion versions for severe conditions. Surface-mounted axle-driven pumps are also available if the depth requirements are limited.
The solid cast iron construction and narrow design characteristics of the Grundfos DWK dewatering pumps range make this pump ideal for pits, temporary or permanent installations and offer high-pressure pump performance unhindered by sand, small stones or other abrasives.
In cases where more mobility is required, Grundfos offers its DW range of pumps, which are lightweight, providing extra mobility.
Peripheral dewatering: Peripheral dewatering and the maintenance of a constant water level typically involve a number of wells installed around open-pit mines. Grundfos can offer a flexible and effective solution for removing clean or dirty water with particles and adjusting water levels with boreholes from 30 m to 600 m. Higher-grade material and anti-corrosion versions for pumps and motors are also available for severe conditions with low or high pH and chlorides.
For example, Grundfos can supply SP pumps with an empty chamber that offers a fast and effective solution when greater depth and power are required by replacing the impeller in the chamber.
In situ leaching: In situ leaching is a process of recovering minerals such as copper and uranium through boreholes drilled into the formation, without the need for conventional mining. Grundfos can supply submersible and end-suction pumps that ensure effective pumping.
Leachate solutions vary according to the ore deposit. This places heavy demands on pump construction, and Grundfos offers customised pumps for in situ leaching. Pumps ranges are available built with high-grade steel or, in some cases, titanium, and with a magnetic drive or various kinds of shaft seal solutions.
With possible great fluctuations in demand for performance and multiple pumps installed, adding variable frequency drives will equalise the hydraulic load to the wells, automatically adjusting pump speed to the required demand with state-of-the-art controls.
How do you ensure your pumps can withstand the corrosive properties of mine water?
Correct material selection is the most important method of corrosion prevention, prolonging the lifespan of pump systems and insuring trouble-free operation. Grundfos can supply the specialist expertise to help meet your performance objectives, from the initial identification of needs to the selection, installation, operation, and maintenance of the pumping solution.
Do you utilise sensors and monitoring technology for early problem detection?
Automation is critical for mining applications. Grundfos' solutions include early warning notifications and logging systems for plant optimisation, energy savings and safe operation. Although the majority of our products are pumps, Grundfos focuses on developing in-house electronics and controls for optimal pump performance and protection (VSD, motor protection relays, motor controllers).
We also have our GRM (Grundfos Remote Management) program, which allows for full monitoring and control of systems remotely. Our communication modules can be linked to other available Scada or communication systems. We offer a wide range of sensors that can be adapted to these systems to prevent damage but also ensure that systems are maintained and serviced at regular intervals.
How do you ensure low life-cycle costs for your pumps?
Grundfos intelligent control units, if installed, ensure that the system always operates at optimal efficiency and performance, and even has functionality to request services on certain wear and tear items installed in the pumps. This leads to systems increasing their lifespan significantly.
What service agreements do you offer for mining applications?
Our service agreements recognise the greater requirements for maintenance in mining applications. A partnership with Grundfos focuses more on the pumping solution than the pump itself. We remain with our customers for the entire project and plant life cycle, offering pump performance witness testing, commissioning agreements to ensure correct installation, and service level agreements that cover all operational cases, from routine maintenance to spare parts and pump audits.

Block 7 began with First Mondays Event Series speaker Gregg Deal, a Native American painter, muralist, and performance artist whose work "squarely addresses racist language," as Director of the Butler Center Paul Buckley stated it in his introductory remarks. Though Deal's words would be important and enriching to students at any time of year, his message felt especially relevant in the wake of the anonymous email that was sent to members of the Colorado College community during Spring Break.
The email, which was received by a seemingly random selection of students, faculty, and staff members, was sent by what Buckley described as "a normalized, disturbed person," and manifested itself in "violence towards our community of learners and teachers." In addition to the usual introduction that a first Monday speaker receives, Buckley took time to make remarks on the email and how the community wishes to proceed moving forward.
While Buckley's speech received numerous standing ovations, the longest and most prominent one occurred when he directly addressed Deans Mike Edmonds and Rochelle Mason, the two CC employees who were personally named in the email. "We lift them up," Buckley said. "We lift them up for their excellence, their steadfastness, and most of all, their humanity."
Though Deal initially stated that he didn't know how to follow a speech as powerful as the one Buckley gave, his presentation, titled "Indigenous Identity & Existence: Fighting Erasure and Racism," fell nothing short of potent and moving. Deal began by introducing the audience to his wife and five children, emphasizing their importance to him and starting with a lighter tone before shifting to weightier subject matter. "They humanize me," he said. "There's a very specific way that my family interacts with one another. It's about reconciliation."
When Deal did delve into the darker topics, the audience was immediately able to recognize both the genuine nature of his words and their relevance to Buckley's. Deal went methodically through various projects of his, beginning with a mural of two young boys facing each other on the side of a building—one dressed in traditional Native American attire and the other in purely Western. The message—or the question, more specifically—that Deal was raising was "which is more Indian?" The answer was "both."
His works of performance art, which he introduced later on, dealt with similar issues, ranging from Columbus Day to racist sports mascots, such as the Washington Redskins and the Cleveland Indians. What Deal was able to do, however, was give the audience a colorful background behind those mascots, providing a detailed history to explain just how cruel and racist they really are while also emphasizing the "power of words." "This is the history that our country is built upon: a history of supremacy," said Deal.
Both Deal's presentation and Buckley's speech could not have been more suited for one another, even though Deal was chosen as a speaker before the email incident had even occurred. Buckley's message to the perpetrator was unwavering: "If they are students, they will be expelled. If they are current employees, they will be terminated." He even addressed the possible claim that sending such an email is within the rights of free speech, and shot down the theory immediately, stating that the "persistent questioning and distrust of minoritized persons … are not free speech issues."
From these sentiments, to Deal's emphasis on institutionalized racism, the blood quantum required for admittance to tribal roles, and the "forced assimilation" and "white education" thrust upon native children in boarding schools, the message of this powerful first Monday rung clear. Colorado College does not, and will not tolerate racism on any ground—and those who object to this policy are no longer welcome in our community.


text: HOX is a turn-based tactical game. The number of steps you can take is based on the opponent's square anti-clockwise from you. So if Green stands on 2, then Red can do 2 steps. Everytime you move, you leave a colored square behind. You can't land on these, but you can move over them. If it's your turn but you can't move to anywhere, you're dead.

Your Chromebook can get connected to a non-public network, like the network at the job or university, applying a Online Private Network VPN interconnection. Open the configuration record with OpenVPN Connect you actually can mail the document to your email address and open it up about your device, or you can easily send the data file to the OpenVPN file by means of LAPTOP OR COMPUTER with a third-party application including iTools designed for Windows» and enter your NAS account information to set-off the interconnection. PPTP VPN Server can be used to generate a VPN connection with regards to remote device. When finished using the cellular product in public places, toggle the text button off. See: Apple has got removed the native support and pass-through capabilities of PPTP VPN connections through IOS10+ equipment. VPNs essentially forward your entire network traffic to the network, which is certainly where the benefits — just like opening localized network methods remotely and skipping Net censorship – all arrive from.
Open up the Network Connections window and click Create a new connection. What you are over the internet is certainly your business, and using a VPN may help you keeping it that way by hiding a crucial number called your IP address. In Home windows 7, click the network icon in the program dish and choose the VPN interconnection. Normally, proceeding need to set up the router to work with one of the VPN expertise I said earlier. There really is Asus routers to be really steady with good performance, when also being easy to build. The stock software allows you to arrangement tailor made DNS and also obstruct IPv6. You will just need to front the proper vents out of your router for the pc working the server program.
You are that the VPN service should let you to hook up at least five devices at a period. And clearly, if your job relies upon being connected to your network or perhaps the internet, you're looking for Wi-Fi or perhaps Ethernet. In dialog, specific OpenVPN loss. Set semej.blog.free.fr Server: You can need to your IP or Hostname of your VPN server you wish to conenct to. Found underneath My Servers. Hi Troy, I method IPVanish on a an Asus AC86U router with the guidance and almost everything worked well there. Now My spouse and i will highlight just how to set up a VPN client over a desktop computer system using Tunnelblick. My spouse and i learnt a lot and you helped me to opt for up my own router and vpn program.
To put together an internet server to take HTTPS cable connections, the kurator need to create a general public primary certificate intended for the web storage space. 9) Following that, you definitely will see you can find new Inbound Connections icon created in Network Internet access window. I do think I'll simply stick with the IPVanish in the specific gadgets, seeing that it is not hard to switch on and off when needed and makes my laptop computer portable too. Go to Control Panel» > Network and Internet» > Network and Showing Center» and select Create a new interconnection or network». Setting up up a VPN-enabled router should be a fairly straight-forward procedure. Simply IPVanish, VyprVPN, and ExpressVPN do the job both on pcs and mobile devices in China.
The advantages you may get coming from a router VPN certainly outweigh the difficulty of having a single place up. And if you genuinely avoid need to have you a chance to do it your self, you can get a router which memorized. Occasionally you will possibly not wish to come to be coupled to the storage space the VPN application suggests. It will have a question about DNS Provider, be mindful here Security stage! as I said previously, I prefer the low bad, to hold my personal visitors only among me personally and my own INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDER, hence lookup your ISP's DNS computers, select tailor made, and enter in your ISP's DNS ips. Optionally click DNS Adjustments if perhaps you desire to switch the default DNS storage space your VPN clientele uses when linked to your VPN server.

Managing an event is straightforward, right?
Hire a space, order a few trays of sandwiches and get Neill from Accounts to do his Elvis routine – he even has a sparkly jumpsuit!
Ok, that is probably the worst possible situation, but at the same time, we've all been to that event – whether it is a product launch, a corporate away day, whatever – that has fallen completely flat, and left a bad impression.
Luckily, that is easy to avoid, and planning an event that goes smoothly and is still talked about for months after – in a good way of course – is easier than you may think, especially if you consider these 5 event management tips!
- Start Early!
The number one tip to take away from this article is to start effective planning early! Nothing has the potential to derail an event more than simply not leaving enough time to plan and having to rush.
Not only that, the more in advance you plan the cheaper you will find it to hire space, organise food, etc. Remember companies who supply to events can smell desperation, and if they know you are hiring last minute, they will be less likely to offer deals and discounts – why would they, if you're desperate?
- Budgeting
Set your budget early, be realistic and take that figure with you into every negotiation. If this is the first event you've planned, prepare to be a little more flexible with the budget. It's also a good idea to get multiple quotes so that you can compare prices effectively.
Whatever your budget is, don't go straight into meetings and negotiations starting at that figure. Start 15% or even 20% below your actual budget, so you have some wiggle room in negotiations.
- Plan B
If you go into the event assuming that everything will go smoothly, then you are going to be in for a surprise!
The bigger the event, the more pieces are in play that can fail. You can't have a backup plan for each and every element of the event. However, it will pay dividends if you take a little time to identify the key items of the event and have back-up plans should the worse happen.
For example, if you plan an outdoor event, do you have an alternative in case the weather turns against you?
- Put it in Someone else's Hands
Naturally, it will depend on the size of your event and the budget you have to work with, however sometimes the best advice is simply to take notes of your strengths and weaknesses – and pass the baton to a professional if that makes more sense!
Look for a company who will take over all large parts of the planning – in the case of a foreign-based event, you need a company who will organise the space, accommodation, dining, even flights – Prague Eventery for example have a comprehensive list of the services they offer which is a great place to start for event management that is smooth, straightforward and really makes a good impression.
- Learn from it!
Finally, the very best way to learn is by experience. However, during the event itself, you may be too busy to really take a wider view of what is going on, what is working and what isn't.
Therefore, to really get an idea of what is happening, consider a little post-event questionnaire. These could be small cards left on tables at the event, or it could be a simple email you send in the days after. Just a few simple questions, a comments box and a promise that it will all be in confidentially will get you a decent idea of the success of your event.

General Information
The Maths team consists of seven full-time specialist teachers with a wealth of experience delivering Key Stage 3, GCSE and A level mathematics to students. In addition we have two dedicated Teaching Assistants who provide excellent classroom support and intervention for students in need of extra help. There are six classrooms in the department each equiped with an interactive whiteboard to incorporate the latest technology and software into teaching and learning. The department also has a break out space which students can use as a quiet study area. Laptops, calculators and mathematical equipment are available for use by students.
Key Stage 3
On entry Year 7 students are placed into sets based upon Key Stage 2 results and a baseline assessment. Students are regularly assessed to measure progress and have the opportunity to move sets based upon their achievement. Across Years 7 and 8 students will build up a solid foundation of knowledge to prepare them for Maths GCSE. This will involve number skills, algebraic manipulation, geometry, using and applying statistics and problem solving skills.
Key Stage 4
Through Years 9, 10 and 11 students will be taught the GCSE syllabus. We currently enter students for the AQA GCSE Mathematics (8300) qualification. Depending on their prior attainment in Key Stage 3 students will be entered for either Foundation level (Grades 1 – 5) or Higher level (Grades 3 – 9). The course is linear and they sit the final exams at the end of Year 11. There are three papers all 1 hour 30 minutes long; one paper is non-calculator, the other two are calculator based. Students can resit the exam in the following November.
Key Stage 5
The A Level Mathematics course consists of: Core maths, Mechanics and Statistics in which students will develop an understanding in the fields of coordinate geometry, algebra, calculus, representation of data, probability, statistical distributions, Kinematics and Vectors.
To be accepted onto the A level course we ask for students to have achieved at least a grade 6 after following the Higher Tier course in Key Stage 4.
We currently enter students for the Edexcel (9MAO) A Level mathematics qualification. The exam consists of 3 papers; 2 Pure Maths papers and 1 Statistics and Mechanics paper. There is no coursework element to the course.
At Key Stage 5 students can also re-sit the GCSE Maths course

text: Warren Unveils Audacious Student Debt Plan She would wipe it out entirely for most By Newser Editors, Newser Staff Posted Apr 22, 2019 10:10 AM CDT 274 comments Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., speaks during a campaign rally on Wednesday in Salt Lake City. (AP Photo/Rick Bowmer) (Newser) – Elizabeth Warren is out with what might be her most controversial policy proposal yet ahead of the 2020 election: She wants to wipe out a large chunk of the student debt now held by Americans, reports HuffPost. "The time for half-measures is over," Warren writes in a blog post detailing the plan she says would be "truly transformational." The specifics: Her plan would wipe out $50,000 in student debt for those with household incomes under $100,000; relief would be scaled based on income after that, and those who make more than $250,000 would get no relief. An economic analysis cited by HuffPost estimates that 76% of households with student debt would see "total loan forgiveness," while 95% would see at least partial loan forgiveness. She would eliminate tuition at public colleges, per the New York Times. The plan calls for an additional $100 billion for Pell Grants to defray non-tuition school expenses, reports CNBC. She would pay for all this with a 2% annual tax on households with more than $50 million, per Business Insider. "This touches people's lives," Warren tells the Times, making the case that student debt is hurting not just individuals but the broader American economy in terms of things such as homeownership. "This is a chance to talk about what's broken and how we fix it. This is the American dream." (Read more Elizabeth Warren stories.)

There's more to the story, of course. The newspaper article you (hopefully) just read exists in large part because of the efforts of the Justice for Jeff blog, set up by his friends in the aftermath of his death and alleging that this incident is part of a much larger pattern of harassment at the show. If you're not thoroughly depressed already, I recommend reading it here.
I don't have anything to add here, really; I don't have any personal connection to Chicago, and don't know anybody in the cast who can offer any more information. And obviously, much of what's laid out here are still just allegations in any legal sense. But still, I wanted to make sure attention was on this frustrating, anger-inducing story. And sure, most of us in the performing arts have experienced some measure of abuse in our careers, without things escalating to the degree depicted here. But that's what's so infuriating, so awful - for most of us, theater was supposed to be the face that we'd found to escape from, to insulate ourselves from a world full of bullying and abuse.
Let's do better, everybody.

Imagine this: You're heading out on a long, beautiful hike deep in the backcountry, but instead of a full backpack, you carry a light daypack. You've avoided hassles with getting a backcountry permit. There's no camp to set up and pack up, because you're not backpacking, you're dayhiking. Yes, I love backpacking—living in the wilderness, getting into that mindset of not knowing or caring what day it is or what's going on in civilization. And I do it a lot. But sometimes, I prefer to knock off a weekend-length—or longer—hike in one big day.
A completely different way to experience a hike, walking 15, 20, or even 30 or more miles in a day feels liberating in how lightly you travel and how much ground you can cover. I've done it many times simply because I had just one day free and wanted to see as much as possible. But there are some long stretches of trail that, to me, just cry out to be hiked in a day—for aesthetic reasons, because the length and access are just right and the scenery top shelf.
The following list of 14 hikes represents the very best long—and huge—dayhikes I've taken over more than three decades of hiking all over the country. If you have a favorite long dayhike that you think belongs on this list, tell me in the comments section at the bottom of this story, and I'll try to get to it.

The Grand Canyon Rim to Rim to Rim
Arguably the granddaddy of ultra-dayhikes, traversing the Grand Canyon from the South Rim to the North Rim and back again constitutes not only the most demanding stroll on this list, but a double, top-to-bottom tour of one of Earth's most magnificent and unfathomable natural features. By its shortest route (depending on which trails you use), the r2r2r, as it's known, is 42 miles round-trip with a cumulative elevation gain and loss of over 21,000 feet.
Backpacking the route requires obtaining one of the most hard-to-get backcountry permits in the National Park System, so if you possess the fitness and skills to knock it off in a day, that may offer your best chance of actually doing it. Of course, the shorter (and perhaps saner) alternative is to hike across the canyon in just one direction, halving the distance, using available shuttle services to travel between the rims before or after your hike (depending on your lodging arrangements). I hope it goes without saying that this is an extremely arduous undertaking in an extreme environment and should only be attempted by very fit, experienced desert hikers.

Take one of the prettiest moderate-length dayhikes in the National Park System—Glacier's Highline Trail—and tack on waterfalls, a view from above a glacier, and a walk down a valley flanked by peaks, and you have the 16.4-mile, point-to-point traverse from 6,646-foot Logan Pass on the Going-to-the-Sun Road to Many Glacier, via Swiftcurrent Pass. This hike delivers uninterrupted views of the park's jagged peaks and cliffs, and there's a good chance you'll see bighorn sheep and mountain goats. The distance includes the optional but very worthwhile side hike—1.2 miles and a steep 1,000 feet—to the Grinnell Glacier Overlook, a notch in the long cliff known as the Garden Wall.
See my stories "The 6 Best Long Hikes in Glacier National Park" and "Descending the Food Chain: Backpacking Glacier National Park's Northern Loop," and all of my stories about Glacier National Park at The Big Outside.
Tenaya Lake to Yosemite Valley, Yosemite National Park
From the post-card view of the granite domes and cliffs flanking Tenaya Lake, to two of Yosemite's finest summts and two of its most spectacular waterfalls, this 21-mile traverse hits many of the park's best and most famous landmarks. After admiring the view from Tenaya Lake's southwestern shore, hike up 9,926-foot Clouds Rest, culminating with its gripping, sidewalk-width summit ridge, with a drop-off of several hundred feet on the left and a cliff on the right that falls away a dizzying 4,000 feet—a thousand feet taller than the face of El Capitan. Then comes Half Dome's thrilling cable route (lead photo at top of story)—for which you need a permit—followed later by a descent of the Mist Trail past 594-foot Nevada Fall and 317-foot Vernal Fall, before finishing at the Happy Isles Trailhead in Yosemite Valley.

Traversing Zion National Park
Few "dayhikes" on any list of ultra-hikes get as long and scenic as this, but the north to south traverse across Zion National Park has earned something of a cult following among uber-fit hikers and ultra-runners. From Lee Pass Trailhead to East Entrance Trailhead—with a short shuttle-bus ride in Zion Canyon from The Grotto to Weeping Rock—you'll navigate a 47-mile grand tour of some of the most amazing scenery in the Southwest: deep chasms with burnt-red and white walls, soaring cliffs and beehive rock formations, and edge-of-the-rim walks high above labyrinths of slot canyons. Throw in a few stunning, short side hikes along the way—Northgate Peaks, Angels Landing, and Hidden Canyon—and you log more than 50 miles on one of the most incredible days of hiking in the entire National Park System.
See my stories "Mid-Life Crisis—Hiking 50 Miles Across Zion In a Day" and all of my stories about Zion National Park.

Paintbrush-Cascade Canyons Loop, Grand Teton National Park
Probably the most popular backpacking trip in the park, the nearly 20-mile Paintbrush Canyon-Cascade Canyon loop from String Lake Trailhead, with a bit over 4,000 feet of elevation gain and loss, sees hikers and runners regularly notching it in a day. The scenery is classic Tetons: serrated peaks and deep canyons with rock walls soaring thousands of feet overhead, and waterfalls tumbling off those walls in Cascade Canyon. Plus, the loop crosses the highest point reached via trail in the park, 10,720-foot Paintbrush Divide, where the panorama takes in a huge chunk of the Tetons; and passes cliff-ringed Lake Solitude on the descent through the North Fork of Cascade Canyon, where you're looking straight down the glacier-carved valley at the towering north walls of the Grand Teton and Mount Owen.
See all of my stories about Grand Teton National Park, including "Ask Me: 8 Great Big Dayhikes in the Tetons."

and backpacking the beginner-friendly loop described above.
High Divide-Sol Duc Loop, Olympic National Park
Like the above hike, this 18-mile loop with over 3,000 feet of elevation gain is popular with backpackers, but a doable objective for many fit dayhikers—and a great day in a mountain range that's largely beyond reach to all but backpackers and climbers on strenuous, multi-day outings. Hiking counter-clockwise, you'll pass lovely Sol Duc Falls, with its triple columns, and climb through old-growth rainforest to higher meadows carpeted with lupine and other wildflowers. On a clear day, the High Divide Trail's long alpine traverse delivers views across the deep, lushly green trench of the Hoh River Valley to ice- and snow-blanketed Mount Olympus. After passing beautiful Heart Lake, set in another sprawling meadow, the loop makes a gentle descent below ancient, giant trees along the Sol Duc River. You're likely to see elk and mountain goats at higher elevations and black bear almost anywhere.

Crossing the Wind River Range
Huge vistas for much of the way, in one of the highest ranges of the Rocky Mountains, are the payoff on this 27-mile, east-west crossing of the southern Winds, from the Bears Ears Trailhead in Dickinson Park to the Big Sandy Opening Trailhead. With a cumulative elevation gain of about 4,500 feet, this traverse stays above 11,000 feet for many miles, with views of peaks rising above 12,000 feet on the Continental Divide. Don't pass up the 20-minute, off-trail side trip up 12,250-foot Mount Chauvenet, overlooking a row of peaks that includes Buffalo Peak, Camel's Hump, and Mounts Washakie and Hooker. But the hike's highlight is the Cirque of the Towers, a mind-boggling horseshoe of sheer-walled granite peaks standing shoulder to shoulder.

Mowich Lake to Sunrise, Mount Rainier National Park
From any angle, Mount Rainier looks impossibly big, rising 8,000 to 11,000 vertical feet above trails around its base—more relief than all but a few peaks in North America. Still, the best views of The Mountain are from its northern flanks, where you look up at the largest glacier in the Lower 48, the Emmons, and get close-up with the Carbon Glacier, the longest (5.7 miles) and thickest (700 feet) American river of ice outside Alaska. On a rugged, 22-mile hike from Mowich Lake to Sunrise, you'll also cross sub-alpine meadows like Spray Park, renowned as one of the Pacific Northwest's power spots for wildflowers like lupine, beargrass, phlox, goat's beard, and pink monkeyflower.

Lovely Wishes is a simple yet elegant stamp set from the 2018 Occasions Catalog! It is a two step stamp in Photopolymer and I have to admit I still used my Stamp-A-Ma-Jig to line up the stamps. Some of you may be able to do it without needing the Stamp-A-Ma-Jig!
Dapper Denim and Lemon Lime Twist just go together! The Lemon Lime DSP is from the Eastern Palace Specialty Designer Series inspired this card.
What inspires me to make a card?
First – I look at the Stamp Set and read the sentiments
Second – I look at my Designer Series Papers and at my Ribbons
Third – I like to stamp all of the pieces on Whisper White paper to see what they look like
Fourth – I start creating. I throw pieces in the trash because it's not pretty!
Lovely Wishes You Warm My Heart made me look for a way to add a Heart. So I pulled out my Sweet and Sassy Layered Framelits. Choose the smallest one that your sentiments will fit on then take the next size larger and cut out the Dapper Denim card stock.
As you can see by this view I added Stampin' Dimensionals under the Whisper White Heart and under the Dapper Denim Heart.
Lovely Wishes You Warm My Heart Measurements:
Dapper Denim Card Base – 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
Eastern Palace DSP – 4″ x 4 1/4″
Whisper White – 3 3/4″ x 4″
Scrap of Whisper White and Dapper Denim for the Hearts
Lovely Wishes You Warm My Heart Instructions:
- Stamp the swirl leaf outline with Lemon Lime Twist Ink, use Stamp-A-Ma-Jig to add solid leaves with Lemon Lime Twist Ink on the Whisper White Layer
- Ink up small heart looking stamp with Dapper Denim Ink, stamp off before adding the color to the small flowers
- Adhere the Whisper White layer to the Eastern Palace DSP (at an angle) with Snail Adhesive
- Stamp the long swirl leaf stamp on both sides of the Dapper Denim Card Base with Dapper Denim Ink
- Attach the DSP/Whisper White layer to the card base with Snail
- Stamp the sentiment on Whisper White scrap, cut out with Heart Framelit
- Cut next size larger Heart Framelit with Dapper Denim scrap
- Add Stampin' Dimensionals under the Whisper White Heart and under the Dapper Denim Heart and attach to card front.

As you look around your practice, you likely see many areas where you could invest in new resources: technology, infrastructure, new devices. But what about your human resources?
Your investment in your staff is arguably the one with that reaps the highest dividends on your office's productivity, patient satisfaction, and revenues. That's why, whenever a team member quits or retires, it's critical for you to take a long-term approach to hiring a new employee who will be a good fit for your team and make a strong contribution to your success – not to just get a new body in that empty seat as soon as possible.
The best bet is to look for an employee with the right mix of several qualities experience, teachability, enthusiasm, and commitment – that you can assess throughout the different phases of the hiring process.
Step #1 Resume Review: Experience
Often, once you post a job listing, you're inundated almost immediately with applications and referrals from friends and colleagues. The key to acing resume reviews is to focus on experience; candidates with a background in your field are simply more likely to succeed on the job.
There are exceptions: Do you have a capable staff that could train a 'blank slate' hire without medical practice experience? If so, don't discount recent graduates. If not, don't feel bad about holding out for someone with a health care background and saying 'no thanks' to friends and family members whose referred kin don't have the experience you need.
Step #2 Interviewing: Teachability
Once you've slimmed down that stack of resumes, it's time to get to know your applicants a little better. Phone screenings and first-round interviews are the point where experience starts to take a backseat to personality. Ultimately, a new hire's eagerness and ability to learn may be more valuable than their technical know-how.
Ask each potential hire questions designed to measure their openness to learning and growing, such as: "What was your biggest obstacle at your last job, and how did you conquer it?" "How do you respond to challenges?" "What's one thing you've done in the last 12 months to improve yourself?" Weed out the prospects who seem too set-in-their-ways to adopt new skills and learn by doing.
Step #3 Selection: Enthusiasm
As you narrow the pool further to top two or three candidates, consider which one has the keenest interest in working for you – as opposed to just working. Someone who is excited about the opportunity to be a part of your team is more likely to put in the work to succeed.
During first and second-round interviews, share what makes your practice unique among its peers and see how the interviewee responds. Don't forget that it's a two-way-street: Keep note of which candidates ask you questions to help them decide whether your practice is the right fit for them.
Step #4 Onboarding: Commitment
The most frustrating part of hiring is the threat of the 'perfect storm': finding the right candidate, offering him the job (and being thrilled when he accepts), training him for several weeks or months… and then watching him walk away from the job too quickly. Sometimes, there's nothing you can do to keep the exodus from happening, but you can do your best to hedge yourself against it by gauging a new hire's commitment up front and being as honest with him as possible.
When you've found the right person, be direct and straightforward about the job responsibilities and associated challenges, the salary, and the outlook for future wage growth and advancement. (That way, there's no chance your new hire can claim he "didn't know" any of the stipulations related to working for you.) Use a three-month probationary period to observe the hire's approach and commitment to becoming an indispensible member of your team. If it doesn't seem like he's in it for the long haul after 90 days, better to start the hiring process over again on your own terms than be hit with a surprise resignation a few weeks later.

Leinster Senior Cup Final Report: St Patrick's Athletic 4 - 0 Athlone TownSat, Nov 16 2019
Dave Donnelly reports from Richmond Park
St Patrick's Athletic were crowned Leinster Senior Cup champions for the first time in five years as a youthful side saw off the challenge of First Division Athlone Town at Richmond.
Shorn of all their senior players, a team made up of under-17 and under-19 players triumphed thanks to goals from Kyle Robinson, Brandon Holt, Jake Walker and Daniel Dobbin.
Walker, the only player in the Saints side with significant first-team experience, capped off the win 15 minutes from time as he latched onto a loose Gavin Kearney backpass.
It was no less than the young Saints side deserved as, coached by under-19s boss Jamie Moore, they dominated the game from the moment Robinson broke the deadlock just past the half-hour.
It was the first real action of a hitherto uneventful game that Athlone, boasting a more or less full-strength side despite finishing their First Division campaign two months earlier, edged early doors.
Aaron Brilly had forced a routine save from Brian Maher in the opening exchanges before the keeper was fortunate not to drop Jamie Hamilton's cross at the feet of an Athlone striker.
The visitors continued to have the better off the play and should have taken the lead when John Morgan's cross found Kealan Dillon, but the striker headed straight at Maher.
It was a costly miss as Pats went straight up the other end and, with advantage being played for Ciaran Grogan's foul on Cian Hughes, the number 10 fed Robinson wide on the left.
The winger cut into the box and curled his shot back across the helpless Aaron Myles, his second goal in two games after putting the Saints in front in extra time against Sheriff YC.
Robinson very nearly doubled his tally in first-half injury time as he dinked a shot over Myles but the retreating Kearney cleared off the line into his grateful keeper's arms.
Athlone arrived out early for the second half and signalled their intent when former Saint Darren Meenan shot over the bar from the edge of the box, but it proved a false dawn.
The Athletic soon reasserted control and it took an excellent save from Myles to deny Walker when the striker was slipped in ny Hughes.
From the resulting corner, Kearney cleared off the line but, as the Saints pressure continued, Brandon Holt was on hand to stab home Kevin O'Reilly's cross from close range.
Any danger of an Athlone comeback was snuffed out by Walker when he intercepted a short Kearney backpass and calmly sidefooted past a stricken Myles.
Dobbin added the fourth three minutes from time with a low shot from the edge of the box as the Saints rounded off a scintillating win.

Since launching in mid-November 2018, Betmarkets portfolio achieved a return of +4.40% until the end of January. This month saw the portfolio increasing in value much due to the performance of one only expert. And that's why you should diversify and follow several at the same time (we recommend 5+). After all, can you tell exactly who will have the best performance? No…? Thought the same as well. Time will tell what the rest of the year will bring. However, we are already seeing the effects of adding more experts to the portfolio: lower volatility! As everyone should know: slow and steady wins the race!
Betmarkets portfolio: slow and steady
We closed January with more than 1,500 active users with us (if you are one of them, you're the best!). Also, we launched an entirely new version of the platform. It was a month of hard, but gratifying, work. As promised in the last report, we added more experts to the platform. 6 to be more precise! This promise is still open. More quality experts will become available for you to follow as the weeks go by. On the corporate side of things, we are happy to disclose that we finally moved to an office of our own and that the team is growing. We are now 7 people devoting our work to turning sports betting into an investable asset for everyone.
The portfolio
The portfolio that we're going to report is built by dividing your balance equally amongst all experts available and by following each new one as soon as he/she is available. In this sense, if you were to follow this portfolio, you would be reallocating your balance everytime a new expert is added.
Please note the following amendment to the portfolio's performance against the last update: upon the implementation of the new layout, all information regarding the users' accounts had to be reset. We maintained all records of the experts' bets but lost the information regarding bets that were not entirely placed in the betting providers (lack of liquidity in the market or error on our side). By considering that all past bets were completely placed, past performance has been updated: November closed with +2.86% (from +2.11%) and December with +3.99% (from +3.29%).
January 2019: +0.41% (+4.40% overall)
This month's peak performance was achieved right at the start of it. Experts started the year firing on all cylinders and the portfolio achieved a +5.39% performance as of 02/01. This was followed by a series of negative results that saw the portfolio dropping to +2.35% as of 14/01, losing 1.64% since the beginning of the year. The experts then bounced back and closed the month with the portfolio showing a +4.40% gain.
Throughout the month, we added 6 more experts to the platform. Shrek and portugaltipster bet on football in the Portuguese first and second leagues. emurla is a basketball expert that mostly works with the Turkish league. Riku Pasalinen works in the Turkish leagues as well, but on the football ones. Diocletianus has a very diversified set of sports and tends to bet on leagues on Southeast Europe. Lastly, Elizabeto is a Spanish football expert that works with the country's top two tiers.
This has been the daily evolution of the performance of our portfolio since its inception. It has been amended by the same reasons presented earlier. The bolded figures represent the end of each month.
With the addition of more experts to the portfolio, its volatility has been decreasing steadily, as expected. We ended December with an annualised standard deviation of 19.18% and have now dropped to 14.97%. This figure will continue to run down as the contribution of the initial days – where we only had a handful of experts – diminishes.
For comparison, the S&P500 is usually in the 10-15% range. For the returns one might be able to get from sports betting, the risk level of the portfolio has been acceptable. Another thing that is interesting to add is that its behaviour is entirely independent from the one of the S&P500 (and of other indices).
Market Edge
We are also compiling information on the Market Edge, that is, the advantage of the experts against the overall market (measured by the comparison between the odds they bet on and the closing odds – statistically speaking, the best predictors of the true probability of the event). We are happy to announce that we closed January with a Market Edge of 2.21%. Given that the fees of the betting providers we work with are in the range of 1.7%-2.0%, even by picking randomly the bets (as to say, even without any "skill" at all), these experts will tend to profit in the long-term. This is just due to grabbing higher odds than what the market settles as fair.
What we expect for 2019
During 2019 we will continue adding more experts to our platform. With the increased number of bets, the portfolio will start to exhibit a steadier behaviour. It's standard deviation will decrease due to the independence between the performances of each expert. Winning runs by some will be compensated by losing runs of others. On average, the impact of being able to beat the market should start arising. That is the power of diversification and the main reason for you to follow several experts simultaneously.
We are aiming to beat the long-term risk and inflation-adjusted return of the S&P500 of 6% per year while keeping lower volatility levels.
If you would like to have a closer look into the portfolio of sports betting experts we are offering, register at Betmarkets. In this beta version we are giving you €20 to invest until the end of it. No deposit required. At the end of it, this amount is withdrawn. You get to keep all profits as credit towards future experts' profit-sharing commissions. In the case of a loss, it's entirely on us.

Services for registrars
DNS Belgium developed a registration system for registering and managing .be, .brussels and .vlaanderen domain names. Registrars that have concluded a contract with us can use the registration system with its central database.
The registration system can be accessed in two ways: through a web interface and through EPP. We also offer a test version to enable you to test all the functionalities.
Web interface
Our web interface gives you access to the DNS Belgium database to create, update or delete a domain name, to change the details of your own profile etc. Each registrar has access to the registrar web interface: one account for the production system and two accounts for the test system.
EPP is an international standard for registering domain names. The EPP interface allows you to automatically synchronise your registration platform with ours. E.g. a new registration requested on your website is transmitted to us immediately, the result promptly returns and you can immediately notify your customer. Of course, some knowledge of EPP and SSL is required. Building the EPP registration platform is the task of the registrar.
Production systemWe use a different registration system for .be and .vlaanderen/.brussels. How to reach the live registration system?
Test systemThe aim of our tryout system is to provide all facets of our registration system as part of a test set-up. How to reach the test registration system?
Transfer portfolioWhat you should do in case you want to transfer a part or all of your portfolio of .be domain names to another registrar.
Tasks of a registrar
The registrar stands in between the registry (DNS Belgium) and the registrant or end user. You register domain names on behalf of your customers and also manage them afterwards. Domain name holders contact you for the following transactions of their domain names:
- Registration
- Update of the details linked tot he domain name, such as name, address, email address, name servers etc.
- Lock/unlock of the domain name
- Transfer to a new registrar or a new registrant
- Domain Guard
- Deletion
- Undo deletion
- Reactivation of a deleted domain name
