How to Form Policies for Tattoos, Piercings, Body Art at Your Store
Some employers encourage piercings, tattoos and rainbow hair colors, believing that an employee's self-expression is good for morale and good for business.
Others prohibit visible tattoos, piercings outside of the ear and Day-Glo hair colors, insisting that such employee self-expression will drive off customers.
Regardless of where you fall, tattoos, piercings and bright pink hair are growing in popularity, with a 2012 Harris Poll showing that 21 percent of all American adults have at least one tattoo (7 percent of all adults polled had piercings somewhere other than their ears). And here in the West, 26 percent of all adults polled reported having at least one tattoo.
Finally, no matter how employers deal with these issues, applicable policies should be clearly stated in writing and readily available to all employees.
Like it or not, traditional dress code and appearance standards are changing. While employers still retain wide latitude to determine dress codes at work, practical, social and legal factors are requiring more careful consideration of requests that may have been readily dismissed in the past.
This article appeared in the Denver Business Journal on March 29, 2013.

Harriet Beecher Stowe was an abolitionist who wrote a novel about slavery that is credited with galvanizing national opinion, against slavery.
BBC Radio 4's "In Our Time" has an excellent program discussing the novel, its author Stowe, and the effect the novel had on American politics.
When Abraham Lincoln met the writer Harriet Beecher Stowe after the start of the American Civil War, he reportedly said to her: 'So you're the little lady whose book started this big war'. Stowe's novel Uncle Tom's Cabin, published in 1852, is credited as fuelling the cause to abolish slavery in the northern half of the United States in direct response to its continuation in the South.
The book deals with the harsh reality of slavery and the enduring power of Christian faith. It proved to be the bestselling novel of the 19th century, outselling the Bible in its first year of publication. Its fame spread internationally, Lord Palmerston praised it highly and Tolstoy reportedly said it was his favourite novel.
What impact did Uncle Tom's Cabin have on the abolitionist cause in America? How did the book create stereotypes about African Americans, many of which endure to this day? And what was its literary legacy?
You may listen to the program (about 45 minutes long) by downloading it here.

Become compliant -- without breaking the bank
Re-use your existing tools to meet regulatory demands.
It's a floor wax! It's a dessert topping! It's a compliance tool!
Vendors have tried to cash in on the compliance crush by promising a cure-all to regulation woes. But by now, you know there's no magic compliance tool -- no "SOX-in-a-box" or "HIPAA-in-a-handbasket" to solve all of your enterprise compliance needs.
Rather, the trick is to understand what these tools can and cannot do. From there, you can determine whether to fine tune your existing infrastructure or invest in new technologies to meet the ever-changing regulatory requirements.
Setting up frameworks
Before you decide on an approach, you need to fully understand the regulations and what they require.
Much of the regulatory legislation pertains to appropriate risk management and business controls, not to prescriptive security settings or systems. The lack of precise prescription is often by design. In the HIPAA Security Final Rule, for instance, a complete listing of the proposed requirements, public comment and the ruling response are included and provide transparency into the process. But the final rule is very general, lacking specific recommendations for implementation.
The lack of prescription means that companies must perform risk analyses and create their own actionable guidance. Reading through the actual requirements is a great place to start. Then you can review and adopt one of the commonly accepted control frameworks, such as COSO, COBIT, ISO 17799 and ITIL. Remember, more than one of these frameworks can be used. ITIL suggests using COBIT and ISO 17799 for defining "what" should be done, and using ITIL for the "how." The frameworks and legislation can help determine accountability paths, such as who will sign off on risk acceptance decisions. Use these as a starting point from which the key stakeholders -- executives, auditors, IT administrative staff and any other employees involved in the compliance process -- can obtain guidance and insight.
A word of caution: These frameworks are not entirely prescriptive, nor are they a replacement for decision making and self-definition within the organization. Creating policies and compliance rules for a business or entity is a collaborative process in which all stakeholders should participate.
Creating policies
For many administrators, the idea of working "top down" -- from risk assessment and business controls to technical security settings on servers -- may seem out of the ordinary.
Historically IT security has often been "bottom up." Technical IT risk decisions, such as which firewall to install and how to configure it, were made without input from business executives. Today, some IT professionals welcome having the business side more involved with risk assessment. However, the lack of technical knowledge of some business executives can cause frustration, even concern, for security professionals. But keep in mind that this is an opportunity to bring security out of the technical closet and make it a cornerstone of the business risk process. IT can help management understand how mitigating technologies work, how much they cost to run and manage, and what level of assurance can be reasonably expected.
Meanwhile, management is responsible for being part of the oversight process by setting acceptable levels of risk and communicating these to the IT staff. From there, the IT staff can determine what technical security policy measures are required and find tools that can meet those requirements.
Communication and collaboration are critical to a successful transition from regulations to control frameworks to technical policies and implementations.
Implementing technical solutions
Once the framework and policies have been set, it's time to build the security architecture. One way is to translate the control objectives into organizational and IT activities, and then into a technical security architecture.
Case in point: If your organizational objective is to protect personal information from unauthorized access, you'll need to initiate employee training and user awareness. On the technical side, you may need to implement network zoning, configuration management and content controls using a variety of products including firewalls, filtering gateways and vulnerability management software among others. (See Building Frameworks.)
While this process is still fairly high level, it will grow even more detailed as your organization makes additional decisions such as design choices about which firewalls or filtering gateways are selected. Technical security policies and configurations will need to be approved and applied to the various devices in the architecture.

Bitcoin Cash was the result of the fork in Bitcoin. The fork took place due to philosophical differences between the Bitcoin community over how to increase the scalability of the coin. When it was released, the coin took a very high price in the first few days and has now stabilised. This is what happens pretty much every time when the coin comes out, there's a huge price spike. Bitcoin Cash has been debated, many speculators said that the coin would crash, but it has been like a normal coin in the past few days. This goes to show that there's at least some community backing Bitcoin Cash and I think that the price will go through the roof in the next few years.
This is an indication for the future prices, as the community expands, the price could go much higher. So, it's definitely a rising cryptocurrencies to invest in for the summer.
Most people hear about Ethereum, or Ether, the currency which is now working wonders in the digital currency market. It's true, Ethereum has risen from $0.10 to around $400 and a lot of mainstream media is calling it a bubble. However, the currency took a serious hit in the past few months but has been gaining slowly in August. Speculators indicate that the price could go up to $400 again, but this time it will stay there for long. Some even bet that the price will go much higher this time. We can only hope for Ethereum to cross $500. The slow rise in Ethereum prices is also an indication that the price spike is due to the community slowly becoming bigger. However, Ethereum could be in a bit of a fix since the Chinese version of Ethereum came out. Therefore, it's definitely a rising cryptocurrencies to invest in.
The NEO coin is much like Ethereum in terms of how it functions and we might see a small competition between both of them.
As of June 2017, Dash is the 7th best-performing cryptocurrency in terms of volume. The Dash is quite trusted in the cryptocurrency industry due to its independence from power and full decentralization. That's why the Dash Coin has been known to be much more stable than some of its fellow contemporaries. Unlike Ethereum, the prices of Dash do not go down over rumours. It's been averaging about $150, growing from $0.10 per unit to $1.1 Billion market cap. In the past month, Dash has been gaining slowly and thus people have started to invest more. Their Reddit page has been flooded with stories of profits and much more. Nonetheless, the coin is a great investment for long term profits. Since the idea behind Dash forces the price to go up when the user base increases, we can be sure that the price will be quite high in the future.
Hopefully, we will be able to see Dash go from $200 to $500 in the next year. That's what the communities have been expressing about Dash Coin. It's definitely a rising cryptocurrencies to invest in.
The NEM Coin is one of the best performing coins in the market right now, it's been growing exponentially since it was first released. The founders of NEM believe in an economic revolution in many ways. It wants to make digital assets much more accessible whilst digitising every asset so that there's an unbeatable market access for buyers. The idea is quite revolutionary and thus we see a small growth in the community. However, the idea they present have a significant impact on how we could think of the economy. It also seeks to change many other things in how much a blockchain application can do. The NEM platform will store data, authenticate identities, stamp documents, build a domain registry system and create new digital assets. Thus, it's pretty much a great rising cryptocurrencies to invest in.
It's been gaining this past month and thus it could be profitable to invest in this rising currency for the summer.
NEO is a project based on Ethereum's idea but the final application will be able to do much more than what Ethereum was able to do up till now. The application addresses some of the drawbacks of Ethereum and thus it's a very interesting coin in rising cryptocurrencies. One of the primary reasons why the coin has been gaining value is the competition it poses to Ethereum. The community will be divided and I think that some of the investors who are leaving Ethereum will prefer NEO because they think that Ethereum could be outdated. However, Ethereum is a much bigger and developed cryptocurrency compared to NEO. For now, it's just an idea which is in development. Nonetheless, I'm sure we can see the price of NEO rising for the rest of summer.
For the past month, the price has shot up due to their popularity and should continue. For me, NEO is one of the rising cryptocurrencies to invest in for the summer for sure.
Michael is an engineer and a bitcoin evangelist. He has been involved in cryptocurrencies since 2013. His biggest wish? 1 billion users of bitcoin, ether and litecoin by 2020. In the last 10 years he has worked for various early-stage start-up as a back-end developer.

Taxes- In general, takes are broken down into two brackets. Second homes and investment property are taxed at 6% and primary residents are taxed at 4%. To be eligible for the 4% rate you must qualify and be approved for the 4% Legal Residence exemption. Primary residents also receive some additional tax credits that further reduce your tax bill such as the property tax relief credit, which discounts the school operating tax from your tax bill. Additionally, if you are over 65 years of age, or certified totally and permanently disabled or blind, you may qualify for the Homestead Exemption. Up to the first $50,000 of your home's appraised value could be totally exempt from taxes.
Research Taxes
Reverse Mortgages
Reverse mortgages are a unique tool for people over the age of 62 that may want to purchase a new home. We can recommend a loan officer experienced with reverse mortgages who can look at your specific situation and help you determine if a reverse mortgage would be a good fit for you.
Here are a couple highlights of the reverse mortgage:
- Loan does NOT require a monthly mortgage payment.
- With the required down payment you can expand your home price range, including homes you thought you could not afford; including your "dream home".
- There is no specified loan term or loan maturity. As long as you own and occupy the home as your primary residence, the loan remains in place.
- All you have to pay is the annual property taxes, and annual renewal of your Homeowners Insurance Policy.
- The Reverse Mortgage is a Government Guaranteed loan program.
- Eligible Borrowers 62 years of age and older. No maximum age limit.

What do you do when you travel but want to watch the channels you have at home? I was going to be out of the country for a month and would not have access to Scandinavian TV. Luckily there are services like NTV.mx which cater to travellers and expats in Spain, Cyprus, France and other popular vacation spots. With this service you can gain access to your home country's channels through IPTV technology. Here is my NTV.mx review for their 200+ channel Ultimate Package.
NTV Has Shut Down 🙁
NTV should only be considered a supplement to your existing cable or satellite package to fill the content gaps from your providers. It is also a great solution for expats whose favorite channels are not available in their new country of residence.
NTV.mx Review Budget IPTV
Expats in Spain will need to register with White Label
I stumbled upon the NTV free demo which requires no registration and was impressed with the Web Player's quality. I decided I had to see if NTV.mx was as good as it seemed. For less than €25, I was able to watch all of my Scandinavian channels including sports channels through the Kodi XBMC plugin. With the Ultimate Package I got more channels than from my own cable provider. The Ultimate package looked like it would suit my needs having all of the Scandinavian channels plus plenty of sports channels – overall cost is 9 cents per channel! As a bonus, when my girlfriend was visiting she could watch her shows in the Web Player while I watched football on the Mag250.
This is a sample of the available channels for the UK and Scandinavian packages. Registration and streaming may be blocked in the host countries as NTV was created to serve expats.
As of May 2015, NTV now caters to North American (US) expats as well, below is a sample of channels.
You can watch all of your NTV.mx channels in multiple ways
- Kodi (XBMC plugin – install guide)
- Web player on Laptops and Tablets (Android, iPad)
- Set top boxes like the Mag 250
|UK Premium
What is IPTV?
IPTV stands for Internet Protocol Television. Essentially, you are able to connect to a server and instantly stream any channel your provider streams. Many providers around the world are now making their live streams available on their web sites. Unfortunately, many of them block users based on their geolocation which you could workaround using a VPN (PureVPN costs $5/month). However, if you watch a lot of sports or other channels it is worth spending the extra $20 for over 200 channels. The quality of IPTV varies from standard quality to high definition. NTV.mx has both qualities which is useful if you have a slower internet connection. Normal IPTV services do not provide programming guide information, NTV has a TV guide built in through Electronic Programming Guide technology in the Web Player and XBMC plugin.
NTV.mx Channels
Sports lovers like me will never have to miss another Champion's league game, NFL or NBA game again. Even if you are on a business trip or visiting family or friends, you can login to NTV.mx and find your match. With 90+ channels you will struggle to find a sports event that isn't available live!
- UK channels
- US and North American channels
- Golf Channels
Kids can enjoy the following channels on a tablet or separate machine setup to run XBMC which will run on any laptop or Android tablet.
- Disney Channel
- Nickelodeon
- Nick Jr
- Cartoonito
NTV.mx Review of Stream Quality
If you have ever streamed sports through external sites you will have noticed choppy or laggy playback for the big games. I have yet to experience choppy or laggy playback with NTV. I did experience some random green blocks just like you do with cable TV. One other gripe I had was that the SD quality was not consistent across streams, some channels had a clearer picture than others. Nevertheless, NTV offers a huge savings in price and increased channel choices for a minor sacrifice in quality.
Standard Quality streams generally look like the screenshot below. I experienced channels as very acceptable quality on my laptop and 32 inch TV.
High Definition streams looks even better, perfect for enjoying sports. They are full 720p resolution so will look great on any TV set or laptop.
Read on to see the NTV.mx features
NTV.mx Features
NTV Mag 250 subscriptions allow 2 simultaneous logins: one for the Mag 250 and one for the Web player/Kodi plugin. This means you can watch 2 football games which is especially useful on football days where several matches air simultaneously. It is also useful if you and your partner want to watch different content while on the road.
Kodi XBMC Plugin
The Kodi XBMC plugin was very easy to install. I simply uploaded the zip file in XBMC, added my login information and had instant access to my Ultimate Package.
Here is what the NTV plugin looks like, sleek and professional. Here is my guide on How to install the Kodi XBMC plugin for NTV and integrating FTV Guide's EPG with it as well for a beautiful channel surfing experience.
Inside the plugin you get a menu of categories since there are so many channels to choose from. In yellow you get the current program that is on that channel. You cannot fully customize your channel list which was inconvenient, especially since there are so many channels. The plugin is open source though so it can be hacked with elementary programming knowledge.
If you right click on the channel and choose TV Guide you will get the full TV schedule for that channel
You can also record shows if you use krogbell's version of the NTV plugin linked to on the installation page.
The Electronic Programming Guide (EPG) information for the XBMC plugin auto updates but it was not always consistent. Sometimes there was no EPG information at all for channels, simply showing 'n a' for not applicable. I was told this is because the XBMC plugin is being updated so it should be fixed in the future. You can use a custom XBMC plugin to record shows though which makes it a proper Personal Video Recorder solution.
If you want reliable EPG and a sleeker interface you can use Ontapp.tv's XBMC plugin (but it costs $2/month).
Ontapp is considerably more beautiful than the regular XBMC plugin.
FTV Guide Plugin Integration
For UK and US channels you can integrate the EPG guide below with NTV which is free (unlike OnTapp)!
TV Guide Plugin Integration
For Scandinavian channels you can follow this guide for integrating with NTV also free unlike Ontapp.
Web Player
The web player is as simple as logging into your account. You click TV Online and you will see this intuitive interface.
Your channel list is on the left hand side and the full program guide for the channel is on the right hand side.
You can full screen the video and adjust the audio from the video player interface.
Set Top Box Mag 250
The set top box option is very cool. The interface closely resembles cable boxes. I was able to emulate the Mag 250 on an Android device. You can also search for a Mag 250 on eBay.
If you click on a specific channel it gives you a full TV guide overview and further information.
As you can see the Mag 250 NTV box solution is the most user friendly. If you have a relative living in another country who isn't so tech savvy, this is the perfect solution so they can see the channels they miss from back home. In the future you will be able to record channels from the Mag 250 making it a proper Personal Video Recorder solution.
Customer Service
One of my favorite features of NTV is that when I signed up it did not automatically renew my payment. Unlike cable companies there were no hidden charges. I didn't have to remember to cancel my membership within 7 days in order to not be billed the following month. I could just let my subscription run to the end of the month. Of course I keep using it because I travel but if you were going abroad for the summer you wouldn't have to worry about NTV trying to bill you for more months of service than you require.
If you have any issues with the service there is usually a Live Chat representative available to help you. I told them several problems I had with audio in some channels not working and the subpar quality on some channels. The audio was fixed within minutes and they assured me they were working on making the quality across channels consistent. Overall their customer service is very high quality.
- Standard quality streams watchable but not consistent (representative says they are working on improving them)
- XBMC experience needs some polish especially with the EPG information for both layout and updating properly
- Mag 250 cannot record shows yet
- I would also like to be able to customize my channel list for the XBMC plugin
- HD streams were beautiful
- Mag 250 experience is sweet: customize your channel list
- XBMC allows you to record shows
- Huge selection of Sports and regular channels
- Watch your home channels away from home
- Affordable
I have been more than satisfied with NTV. They offer serious value for money despite it not being perfect. They continue to add new channels and are developing their Web Player further. The XBMC plugin team are working on the EPG to make the interface even better. At the ridiculously affordable price of 9 cents per channel it can supplement your existing cable or satellite package. Give NTV a try next time you are going out of the country. Their refund policy is to provide a full refund if you are not satisfied in the first week.
When your first month is up you'll get a friendly reminder to extend your service. I like that I didn't have to go in and cancel an automatic recurring subscription.
Click to test the NTV quality for yourself. Trials are available Monday-Thursday through the contact form with the email address you used to sign up for NTV, subject NTV Trial and it will be activated automatically.

Sexual violence is a verbal and/or physical act that breaks a person's trust and safety and is sexual in nature. Behaviors range from sexual harassment to unwanted fondling to forced penetration. All are done without consent. Sexual assault is defined in Wisconsin Statute 940.225 (Sexual Assault); 940.32 (Stalking); 948.02 -948.11 Sexual Assault of a Child; 940.302 Human trafficking.
If you or someone you know has been sexually assaulted, go to the Wisconsin Coalition Against Sexual Assault website (www.wcasa.org) to find the sexual assault agency nearest you.
Data in Wisconsin
- From 2006 to 2010, about 4,960 sexual assaults were reported annually to law enforcement.
- 90% of victims know the person who assaults them.
- Two-thirds of the victims of reported assaults are less than 15 years of age.
- Over four-fifths of victims are female.
- It is estimated that 1 in 7 (14%) Wisconsin women are raped during their lives (Kilpatrick, D.G, Ruggiero, K.J., 2003).
Nationally, only 39% of sexual assaults are reported to law enforcement (Shannan M. Catalano, 2005). In Wisconsin, that would mean an estimated annual incidence of sexual assault of 12,672, the population of Two Rivers, Wisconsin.

Apis mellifera
Family Apidae
* Body thick, marked with yellow and brown.
* Eyes hairy.
* Body length: 1/2-1".
Natural History:
* Habitat: Manmade beehives or hollow trees.
* Range: Throughout the United States.
* Behavior: Honeybees emit a characteristic buzz and feed on the nectar
of flowers such as clover and apple blossoms.
Their social order is rigid and effective; each hive has a queen, who
lays eggs and is the largest bee, workers, the most abundant members
of the colony who harvest nectar, and drones, who serve the queen.
* Native.
* Honeybees are extremely valuable insects whose honey and beeswax provide
the livelihood for thousands of people. Orchard owners often introduce
bees to their orchards, because the insects increase the clover and
fruit tree seed yield and therefore the orchard's productivity.
* Honeybees have also been celebrated throughout history. Drawings
dating from 6,000 years ago in the Cave of the Spiders near Valencia,
Spain, show honey hunts. To ancient Moslem and Indo-Malaysian
cultures, and the Buriat tribe of Siberia, the soul is symbolized
by a bee. In certain African tribes the bee is also a symbolic
token; membership in a tribe confers the ability and power of
a person to control bees. And Napoleon adopted the bee as his
emblem - it can be see decorating all royal garments and products
of his era.
* Honeybees communicate through a language of dance, sound,
and smell. A worker returning to a hive can tell the others about
a new place to gather nectar; through a dance, he indicates the
direction of the place and its distance from the hive. By smelling
him, the other bees can determine the type of flower.

In our last 6 Premier League games we've gained a solitary point, scored one goal and conceded 14.
There's a few ways to look at those statistics, but one way to look at them is that Newcastle are due some goals and a win, and that's what we think will happen tomorrow against Middlesbrough at St. James' Park. The game has a 1:30 PM KO.
Middlesbrough have done reasonably in their last 6 league games, having won two, drawn 2 and lost 2 for a total of 8 points. They are certainly showing better form of late and are of course through to the 5th round of the FA Cup when they meet Sheffield United away on the 17th February.
Of course our last encounter at the Riverside in the second game of the season ended in a fairly even game finishing 2-2.
This is the 112th league meeting between the two teams. Newcastle have 43, Middlebrough have won 35 with 33 drawn. Middlesbrough are unbeaten in their last five games and have lost just once away from home since October.
Keegan has almost all the squad to choose, from except the injured Peter Ramage. Martins and Geremi, are also still on African Cup of Nations duty, until at least next week.
It also looks like Kevin will not use Faye or Beye tomorrow, after they have only just arrived back from the tournament after Senegal were surprisingly eliminated in group play.
They will both be available for next week's tough game at Aston Villa, when N'Zogbia will miss that game through gaining his 5th yellow card against Arsenal on Tuesday night.
Mark Viduka is back fit again and Emre is available after his 3 match ban. We think Emre has a good chance to start the game and this is the team we'd like to see Kevin play tomorrow:
Carr Taylor Cacapa Enrique
Milner Emre Butt N'Zogbia
Viduka Owen
Subs: Harper Edgar Barton Duff Smith
It will be interesting to see where Kevin plays Charles N'Zogbia tomorrow, because we think he wants to start Emre. We have Charles preferred to Duff on the left wing, but Kevin may see things differently since Damien has been playing quite well.
He may even start N'Zogbia in central midfield at the expense of Butt and play Duff on the left wing.
We really want a win tomorrow, and we think we can do it. We hope we play attacking play and take it to Middlesbrough from the very first kick of the ball.
Let us know what you think the team should be, plus any comments you have on the game tomorrow.
36 comments so far
the defence picks itself. i would not start with viduka but would play duff on the left wing and tuck zog in the hole just behind owen. we need duff. milner, zogs and emre all at their attacking best tmrw. i would drop butt and play barton too. i think all season long sam has been thinking too much about keeping clean sheets and he was all about defence. look at manure, ronaldo, giggs, tevez and rooney are not tacklers at all but christ that team looks good to watch (even if i do hate them). its high time we said bollocks to it and just go for all out attack after attack. tmrw is such as massive game and the recent team stats should say we loose in all honesty. i think though that our luck has to change very soon and with some tough games looming, we need these points. i am going for a newcastle win …. 9 – 1. owen gets his first hatrick for us, zogs will score two and then declare his undying love of us and keegan.
mine would def be this one..I think he will play barton and Emre from the interiews this week..Thank god..Please , please , please drop BUTT ..He bring nothing to the team…I hope he makes the big decision and drops milner aswell..Although he is a good player, if you were going to choose between Milner and Duff, it would be duff ever time ..
Beye Taylor Cacapa Enrique
Duff Barton Emre Zog
Owen Viduka/ Smith
Carr Taylor Cacapa Enrique
Milner Emre Zog Duff
Zog and Duff could be switched
Milner Emre Barton Duff
with Zog (unhappily) at LB
Owen and Smith up front
I also wonder if Zamblera is good enough for the bench.
I don't think anyone at 17 is too young anymore, it's just a question of being up to it. I think I read on here that he comes highly rated, if so let's chuck him in as a sub eh?
It'll be interesting to see who he goes with now that he has options. I suspect he'll leave Butt in unfortunately – managers seem to like him even when everyone else doesn't. Viduka HAS to come in Smith though, surely!
Here's how I see Keegan picking the side tomorrow (assuming Faye, Beye and Enrique are all out):
Carr Taylor Cacapa N'Zogbia
Milner Butt Emre Duff
Owen Viduka
Subs: Harper, Edgar, Barton, Smith, Ameobi
I'd personally give Barton a try along with Emre though.
I put this on another page and would like to know what people think. I don't want to be a Barton basher but I do want players we can rely on.
What's the crack with Barton? If he is put in the team then how long will he stay in it due to upcoming court appearances and not being able to behave himself?
I would have him in the team as I think the box to box play of Barton is better than that of Faye and Barton can also get stuck in tackling and breaking up play.
I just can't help thinking-
How long before we have to call on another CM who has been sitting out whilst Barton plays? Maybe we should just give another CM the run of games ,knowing we can rely on them to be both professional and available.
Id love it, just love it:
Carr Taylor Capaca Kadar
Duff Emre Barton Zoggy
Owen Viduka
Bench: Harper, Lualua, Edgar (can also play cm), Carroll, Zamblera
Faye and Beye wont be available and even if they are, bench at best (KK desnt know them). I would have said Edgar for LB but id like to see how Kadar does. Butt and Smith are shit, nuff said on that matter.
I'm hoping to see barton with emre in the middle. Zogs will more than likely play LB, which is a bummer but probably makes the most sense. Duff and Milner on the wings with the duke and owen up front. If things are going well or Milner is really sucking then I'd say put Lua Lua in. He's pretty enterprising when I've seen him.
Given; Enrique, Taylor, Cacapa, Carr; Duff, Emre, Barton, Zog; Viduka, Owen
then sub Carr w/ Edgar – we'll need him in defence at some point btw now and end of season anyway, with Ramage out n Roz gone. this lad can make at least Beye's cover in longer term given chance. Duff should focus on providing crosses and Zog shoots w/ his left foot on the right. ask Emre n Barton to play like Beardsley n Rob Lee when KK was here last time (show them the video!!). tactically n technically it's perfectly archievable. test LuaLua at expense of Duff later in the game – then Zog on LW n LuaLua on RW. we need to give Milner a break and serious competition in the next few months at least. if we r fortunate enough LuaLua may just provide the spark that may lift the whole team, like exactly what it's needed from a new signing. lastly Carroll in for Viduka when the Old Duke's legs r gone at 70th min or so.

Meet the Maker
Rachel Painter Artist
High quality art prints & products painted to inspire & share hope.
Hi I'm Rachel! I'm a Cornwall-based contemporary landscape painter & I paint unwritten melodies.
Behind the brushstrokes
As a landscape painter I seek beautiful scenery. You'll find me wandering the wide-open spaces and woodlands of Cornwall and Exmoor (and I have my sights set on Scotland and Wales too!) Aside from the luscious colour and play of light, I see landscapes mirroring the narrative that goes on within us.
'Your life is a story. Write well. Edit often'. I'm not sure who said that but it would describe the big picture of my creative process. It's an on-going conversation with the Father about finding and staying in a place of freedom.
People say my work is hopeful. For me hope and freedom are related. Without hope, it's hard to make room to dream. Without a dream, it becomes difficult to move freely in any direction.
A lot of my work centres on the courage and faith to become – looking ahead into the void and bravely making steps into the wide open spaces of your 'life's landscape'. It's about discovering a confidence and grace whilst watching God work all things work together for good for those who love Him. I see this echoed as I create- the unpredictable pathways forming within the paint creates a sense of vast space coming together in a celebration of colour and life!
Why are your paintings called unwritten melodies?
I call my paintings 'unwritten melodies' because like music fills a space
invisibly, I use colour, movement and the metaphor of landscape to sing a song
within my work that fills the 'not-yet written spaces' before us with the fresh
promise, hope and light that is found in Jesus.
You can purchase here high quality glicee art prints with colours as fresh & vibrant as the original paintings. I have new art products coming soon- you can follow me on Instagram at @rachel.painter.artist to keep up to date with the latest from my studio.
If you have any questions feel free to get in touch via the 'Contact Seller' button below or email direct at email@example.com.
Thanks for taking a look,

The Politics of Images: Bonani Photography conference
A couple of weeks ago I participated in a conference dedicated to photography in Cape Town dubbed the Beyond the Racial Lens: The Politics of South African Documentary Photography, Past and Present. As I was one of the last speakers at the conference I attempted in my talk, titled Circling sights of Trauma: Representations of Abjectness in Contemporary South African Photography, to address some of the issues that had dominated the three-day conference and comment on the photographic works on display in the adjoining Bonani Africa exhibition.
While judging the 60-odd essays for the competition a number of glaring commonalities became apparent to me. Perhaps the most obvious, and to a certain degree predictable, and one which dominated discussions at this conference was the photographers inclination to train their lenses on societies or individuals located on the supposed 'fringes'. During the conference Thembinkosi Goniwe rightfully lamented the fact that the more carefree and ordinary aspects of black life aren't given expression.
Referencing a photograph taken by Bob Gosani in 1954 which features a pair of untroubled lovers locked in an embrace I suggested that such representations had existed during the most difficult period of our history. However, they weren't innocent depictions; in that era they also functioned as "a political statement; a statement of defiance. By demonstrating that love continued to flourish in spite of oppression made clear that apartheid and the Nationalist government couldn't control every aspect of life. Thus such images implied that the system could be overridden. Depictions of love in our era carry a different message. I believe that they articulate a kind of erasure, a denial of a hidden truth. Thus it is no longer a visual motif of defiance but one of denial."

Good news, everyone!
Now there's a title that will inspire dread in every geeky heart…
On the plus side, I have steady work now, which means I no longer have to worry about starving to death on the streets. On the negative side, it's kept me so busy that I haven't had much time to devote to my all-important hobbies, like gardening or occasional blogging.
Hopefully I can manage to get more of those things in.

Well it has been a long awaited advancement for the SEO, SEM and SMO industry … but Google has finally added exact searches per month for keyword phrases to their keyword tool, Adwords Keyword Tool External.
Previously, the tool would return results for the targeted keyword in the form of a low, medium or high bar graph which really didn't help to quantify the value of a given search term. However, as with the previous major keyword tool Overture, Google Adwords Keyword Tool External provides the amount of searches for a given term per month and the average amount of the aggregate search volume for the search term …
The snapshot below shows the new results … That's it.

Developers On Call🔒 johnbarton.co
This is a good assessment of many of the angles of an on-call rotation in a technology team. I agree with the conclusions, and also agree with the premise that all team members for a service or set of services should be in the on-call rotation.
Teams where the people creating the software help support the software achieve better quality through aligned incentives and increased awareness.
I like that this article calls out the elephant in the room, that there is a general culture in many organizations that developers are "above" being on-call. That is crap and needs to be dispelled whenever it is brought up. If anything, I would highlight that there are a lot of developers are just aren't all that great at being on-call. The skill argument should go the other way. Great operations engineers know how their software behaves, and they know how to push it and make it do what they want. Often the developers that wrote it have no clue. Also, the general stress and pressure of incidents is something that you need to have the stomach for.Posted on November 6, 2018 →

Add this to your /etc/sysctl.conf to add emulation for button 2 and 3 to F10 and F11, if you would like them somewhere else, just use another keycode. dev/mac_hid/mouse_button_emulation=1 dev/mac_hid/mouse_button3_keycode=67 #F10 dev/mac_hid/mouse_button2_keycode=87 #F11
I added these to my /etc/sysctl.conf file but nothing changed.I checked the archives for this list and found a shell script that uses `echo` to insert the values directly into the /proc/sys/dev device files so I looked in /proc/sys/dev/mac_hid/mouse_button_emulation and discovered that emulation was already enabled!!! However, I'd like to change the configuration and I can't find the file that enabled/configured the emulation... I tried grep'ing recursively through the entire /etc directory but can't find anything. (In the mean time, I've written a small shell script that I run _manually_ every time I start KDE.)
When/Where is emulation enabled?

It was shameful.. It was pathetic.. It was ridiculous.. It was insulting.. It can boil any body's blood who is as patriotic as I am.. It can pierce through the heart like a sharp-edged arrow or like an AK-47 bullet of a person who is as proud being an Indian as I am..
He held the highest rank in the Indian Army.. He was the Field Marshal.. During India-Pakistan war in 1971, he motivated our force and shown some brilliant and mature strategy which ended the war with Pakistan's unconditional surrender, and the formation of Bangladesh.. I am talking about none other than great legend of India Field Marshal Sir Sam Manekshaw.. He took his last breath on June 27, 2008.. He died of complications from pneumonia at the Military Hospital in Wellington, Tamilnadu.. He was great.. He was a real Indian who cared about his life or his family while protecting our motherland from our enemies.. He was awake all night watching the border so that we all could sleep well..He was patrolling at the border so that we all could roam around in our cars and and bikes and can go for a long drive.. He was protecting the border so that we all could play cricket all day long.. He was making various strategy plans so that we could all write our exams and make brilliant careers..
But now this is India.. The worst thing this great man would have hoped for happened during his funeral.. Not a single so-called patriotic and loyal Indian politician was present for the funeral ceremony of this 'Ratna' of India.. Our president Mrs. Pratibha Patil who is also termed as commander-in-chief of the armed forces was missing.. Our Prime Minister Mr. Manmohan Singh was busy preparing a speech for G-8 Summit.. Indira Gandhi had a great respect for Manekshaw.. After all, he had won her the prestigious battle with Pakistan.. But her daughter-in-law Mrs. Sonia Gandhi was busy doing her maths so that she could remain in power a little longer and can rob the country more.. Defense minister and also the chiefs of all three staffs(air, navy and army) were absent too.. I don't know what they were busy in.. What was our so-called Hindu-Samrat and Opposition leader L.K. Advani doing?.. Was he busy preparing for early polls and day-dreaming the PM chair??.. Only he can answer this..
Well, my analysis says that ke these politician did not turn up for the funeral intentionally and deliberately.. They must have thought that this Manekshaw had defeated Pakistan and formed Bangladesh.. Hence if they show some gratitude towards this man then their Muslim-votebank might feel bad & insecure and they will turn to some other parties.. But they should understand that Indian Muslims are Indians first..They are not Pakistanis.. They love, respect and adore Manekshaw as much as we do.. They are no different.. They also feel that if someone invades our country then it should be kicked out immediately without any mercy, be it Pakistan or China.. Once our politicians start understanding Indian Muslims, we wont have any riots or other religious problems in India.. Also it would have affected their on-going friendship talks with Pakistan if any respect had been shown towards him..After all, Manekshaw was of no use for them..
Manekshaw's contribution, his grace, his service, his achievements all were arrogantly ignored as said by Shobha De in her this article in TOI.. A must read for every Indian.. Even common people turned up in impressive numbers to say their farewells to the man they adored and respected..
Thank God that Sam Manekshaw is no more to witness this latest act of shame from Indian Politicians..

Not the first time, is it?
I am not surprised.
sad indeed….but just do presence helps?
I agree with every word you have written. Karan Thaper's Sunday Sentiments also focused on this. This column appears in Ht.
yeah, we forget our heroes very fast! 🙁
You even hv a clue about Manekshaw ?? .. I seriously doubt it ..
It's not about presence, it's about showing some decency..some respect to the man who served our motherland all life long..
Thanks !!
hey u can write the answer to all the readers in one concise comment instead of writing it seperately! 🙂
just a suggestion! 🙂
don't want to repeat the sakhi's suggestion! 😉
Agreed that politicians do all things for their vote-bank!!! I give a damn to indian politics after the incident of Abdul Kalam Azad.
I hate myself/indians for doing nothing and always showing pity towards Republic India which lies in the hands of Democratics!
Well, it's my old gold habit .. Will be difficult to change.. I love doing that by the way ..
This way I can write longer comments..
What incident are you talking about??..
Well, the best thing we can do is to caste our vote to the right people..
No no clue about who he is but not surprised by how Indian leaders act.
very true….but politics is all about selfish motives anyways….which leader gives a damn about d country!!
I agree with ur opinion……n really very shamefull for all who think themselves as truely Indians…….N all are just playing Game of politics nobody is bother about Country…….
Hmmmm ..
If you dont know him, u just cant even blame our politicians..
Are you not a responsible citizen of India?? .. Dounch you think u should be aware about our war and freedom heroes??..
Life is way more than just Aamirkhan, tom cruise and ohio..
Everybody is selfish .. It's just easy to criticize politicians..
By the way, do u give any damn about our country??
@ Soham,
Actually I am NOT a citizen of India. I do not even have voting rights there. So why would I bother?
Hmmm !! .. Great !!
truly shameful.. very well written 🙂

Huffington Post article by Affiliate Scholar Marvin Ammori.
Next Friday, February 10, the Stanford Technology Law Review is holding its annual symposium, and this year's topic is an important one: First Amendment Challenges in the Digital Age. Of the three panels, one is devoted to privacy and another to copyright. The third is devoted to a long, ambitious law review article ... written by me. The panel participants joining me to discuss the article are two of the nation's great free speech scholars--Harvard's Yochai Benkler and the University of Virginia's Lillian BeVier. The article is called First Amendment Architecture. In it, I argue that the First Amendment plays an important role in ensuring adequate physical and digital spaces for speech, and that this role is not some exceptional outgrowth of First Amendment doctrine but is central to understanding what the First Amendment "means." While I submitted the paper for publication in February 2011, the subsequent events of the Arab Spring, the Occupy Movement, and the fight over SOPA/PIPA have all highlighted the significance to democratic speech of open physical and digital spaces.

When you have diabetes, sustaining a wound on your foot – no matter how small – can result in serious consequences. Because the disease compromises your immune system, in addition to inhibiting circulation and thus the healing process, even a tiny scratch can snowball into an infected ulceration. This is why diabetic wound care is of the upmost importance! Caring for wounds at the onset will allow you to avoid dangerous complications, including amputation, and live a full and active life despite living with diabetes.
Watch Out for Wounds
One of the main aspects of caring for diabetic feet is to be on the lookout for any type of wound that may occur. It's vital that you check your feet every day for signs of trouble – scratches, cuts, blisters, or anything else out of the ordinary. That's because nerve damage often associated with diabetes can allow an injury to happen without you even feeling or realizing it. Unnoticed and untreated, the wound can worsen and wreak havoc on your foot and overall health. Daily inspections are a must to catch problems early and get the prompt treatment you need!
Helping Ulcers Heal
When you come in with a wound on your foot, the first order of business is to clean the ulceration to protect against infection. This process is called debridement and entails flushing the wound with warm water and carefully removing any dead skin or debris. Medication is then applied to the ulcer, and a sterile dressing will be used to cover it. This dressing will need to stay clean and dry and will have to be changed regularly.
In addition, you will need to "off-load," or in other words, avoid putting any weight or pressure on the wound. This can be accomplished by propping your foot up on some pillows, using a scooter or crutches, or possibly wearing a special boot.
Advanced Techniques and Treatments
There may be times when advanced treatments are necessary, but rest assured, we can provide the expert wound care you need! Our Chandler Wound Healing Center offers a wide range of healing techniques, from dressings and compression wraps to skin substitutes and grafts. We even offer hyperbaric oxygen therapy, which immerses the wound in a 100% oxygen, high-pressure environment to speed the healing process.
Prevention Tips to Keep Feet Safe
As we mentioned above, one of the best habits you can have with diabetes is performing a daily self- foot check. However, there are other things you can do to protect your feet from harm:
Manage your glucose levels with healthy lifestyle choices.
Never go barefoot – protect feet with diabetic shoes and socks at all times, even at home (and make sure footwear fits properly)!
Check shoes before slipping your feet inside, to make sure there are no obstructions or irritating seams.
Don't try to cut away corns and calluses at home – let us help you remove them safely. We'll even trim your nails if you prefer to avoid any possible problems.
If you spot even the very beginnings of a tiny wound, call us right away before it has time to get worse!
If you need help, you can contact our Chandler or Gilbert office to schedule an appointment by dialing (480) 963-9000. We'll get you in as soon as possible and help keep your feet happy, healthy, and safe!

Effectively Planning For Divorce
The decision to end a marriage rarely comes in a flash. If you are considering a divorce, you should speak to a skilled Texas divorce lawyer right away. Careful planning can make a substantial difference in the outcome of your divorce when the time comes.
At The Parent Law Firm, we are committed to giving you the skilled advice and compassionate representation you deserve.

To schedule a consultation with our experienced divorce planning attorneys, call our office at 210-819-4111, or contact us online.
The Impact Of Your Decisions
If you have a fight with your spouse and move out of the house, will that impact the court's decisions regarding who gets the home and who gets primary custody of your children? What will your life look like after a divorce? Where will you live? What will your expenses be? Where will your children go to school? When children are involved, the court looks at numerous factors in deciding on a custody arrangement. The decisions you make before filing for divorce can greatly alter the decision of the court. If you do not understand the impact of your decisions before you make them, you can seriously jeopardize your chances of getting the outcome you want from your divorce.
I'm Not Sure If A Divorce Is Right. Should I Still Plan?
Divorce planning does not always lead to divorce. By carefully considering the matter, you will understand your options and have the confidence to pursue what you want and need from your marriage. If terminating the marriage is right for you, you will feel better about taking that step if you have planned ahead.

TrueSerial® is an innovative approach that delivers the most authentic serial connection across an Ethernet network.
Historically, serial based software applications and devices were implemented around a simple direct cable connection. Designers developed character oriented protocols for these legacy systems that were completely suitable for this type of communication scheme.
However, as companies begin replacing their direct serial cable connections with a modern Ethernet infrastructure using serial RS232 to Ethernet converter products, some will experience difficulties in making this networked connection behave as it did when directly connected. This can be attributed to the lack of raw processing power as well as how the data is handled across the network by the serial to Ethernet converters.
Perle IOLAN Terminal Servers, with TrueSerial® technology, now provides a solution to this problem. Software applications and devices can now seamlessly communicate across a network as if a serial cable were still there.
The TrueSerial® Difference
IOLAN Device Plug-ins
Backed with the experience of connecting hundreds of thousands of different devices to Ethernet over the years, using a Perle IOLAN you can rest assured that virtually any device with a serial COM port will operate in conjunction with your desired application exactly as it did when you had it directly connected. If the unlikely event occurs that the Perle Device Server does not enable this out of the box, Perle will make it work. Request a free engineering consultation now.
Perle IOLAN Device Servers utilize customer installable "Device Plug-ins" to successfully network devices where other solutions have failed.
Perle provides new "Device Plug-ins" for its customers every day. If you have a device that you are struggling to attach to your network, contact Perle immediately. In the rare event that our out-of-box solutions do not meet your unique requirements, we will match you up with an existing Device Plug-in, or tailor one for you.

A dry socket is a painful, but all too common complication that can arise after a tooth extraction. The socket that housed the tooth contains a blood clot which is a normal part of healing. If the blood clot becomes jostled and does not stay where it should, the bone and nerves in your mouth are exposed, causing considerable pain. Self-care measures can help kill the pain associated with a dry socket.
Irrigate your dry socket several times daily, as directed by your oral surgeon. Dry sockets can form, in part, from food that has become lodged into the open area where a tooth has been removed. Use a plastic syringe filled with warm water or a sterile saline solution to clean out the socket.
Pack the dry socket with medicated gauze pads. Medicated dressings are prescribed by your dental health provider and may contain antibiotics to fight infection, as well as anaesthetising drugs to kill the pain. Your doctor will explain how often your dressings should be changed. Use them as directed to speed healing.
Try a natural approach to pain relief by packing your dry socket with clove oil dressings. Saturate a gauze pad with the oil, a natural antiseptic and antibacterial agent, and apply to the open socket. Use herbal products only under the supervision of your health care provider.
Take pain medication to manage the pain. Let your oral surgeon know if over-the-counter naproxen, acetaminophen or ibuprofen is not killing the pain well enough. Stronger drugs may be prescribed, if required.

"Unbridled" a Duo Exhibit Sept.8 – Oct 12
Featuring Photographs from Julie Testwuide's "I am Free" series and Jane Cooper's "Spacious Skies" paintings and monotypes. Testwuide's search, through her lens, for the wild and unshackled and Cooper's exploration of atmospheric spaces between stillness and storm. Inhabited by sea, sky and land. Testwuide's extraordinary images were captured on remote Sable Island in Nova Scotia, Cumberalnd Island, GA, Assateague, MD, Chincoteague, VA, Iceland, and on her Icelandic horse farm in Katonah, NY. Her next round of wild horses photography will include capturing the Przewalski horses in Mongolia, which are truly one of the wildest horse breeds in the world. Cooper's works evolve from years exploring passages and coastlines. The Michigan lakes, Long Island Sound, South Carolina and the Atlantic Coast in Ireland. The two artists who have been friends for over 25 years, also completed a collaborative piece on canvas. Julie's eye and camera captured a scene where the water meets the sky. Jane used her brushes and talent to enhance the image with strokes of oil paint, creating a combination of the two artists views of the horizon at sea.
