Energy storage is marking some big territory.
Duke Energy, an electric power holding company headquartered in North Carolina, just made a huge move, investing $30 million in two huge battery storage projects in its home state. Duke Energy is a regulated utility, and this investment may give us a glimpse into the direction regulated utilities may be moving in the future.
Randy Wheeless, a spokesperson for Duke, said:
"We feel the technology has improved, the price has come down, and we think there are some niche applications where battery use makes sense for the regulated utility." We agree, Mr. Wheeless. The falling prices of battery storage have made it a much more popular choice in the commercial and residential sectors as well.
Many battery owners tapped into the technology because of the energy security it provides, as well as the ability to take advantage of time-of-use arbitrage in states like California, where prices vary greatly based on the time of day. But now that the cost of the technology has continued its downward slope, battery technology is more accessible than ever to the general public… and utilities have started paying attention, too.
"In a regulated environment, you have to justify these projects to a commission and usually least cost is an overriding factor there," Wheeless explained. In a conversation about battery storage, whether it's in a regulated utility environment like this one, or just a residential household, cost always comes up. Many homeowners, like the utility commission, want to see how their investment is going to pay off, and how fast. The conversation has been quickly simplified by the new, low price of batteries everywhere… but in California, government funding makes energy storage so economically viable, solar owners can't afford not to invest.
We're talking about the SGIP (Self Generation Incentive Program).
California's SGIP really is one of the best motivators in the country for homeowners who are looking at installing a home battery to store the energy generated by their rooftop solar panels. California is full of solar-savvy residents, with more residential solar installations than any other state in the country. These energy-generating homes are starting to get storage-smart as well, looking to home batteries to store up the energy their solar panels are generating during the day, so they can use it when they need it the most (usually, that's in the evenings after the sun goes down.) Fortunately, SGIP makes it easy and affordable for homeowners to install home batteries, thanks to the generous rebate offered by the program for energy storage.
Take, for example, Tesla's Powerwall 2.
Since the second-generation Tesla Powerwall has a energy storage capacity of 13.5 kWh, it qualifies for $5,400 in total SGIP funding. You read that right: $5,400. The Powerwall battery equipment itself is priced at $5,500, so the incentive covers nearly all of the cost of the battery. Yeah. Really. There are some additional costs involved in Powerwall installation, including the shipping, taxes, and the cost of installation itself, but the Tesla Powerwall is also eligible for the Federal ITC, another investment tax credit for energy storage purchases. The ITC can knock off another 30% off the bill, and make your home battery purchase even more of a no-brainer.
[Yes, we know that navigating the world of rebates and tax credits can be a little complicated. That' one reason why we're here--to help apply for funding for you, making sure you get all the incentives you can. You can thank us later.]
But Duke's huge investment says even more about where the country's energy future is headed.
The projects that Duke has invested in are a 9-megawatt project in Asheville, and a 4-megawatt project in Hot Springs. The technology they're putting to use? Lithium-ion batteries. Even though the price of lithium is currently spiking, battery prices have not followed suit. Duke's taking advantage of those low prices to create a project that will provide real-time support to the grid (in Asheville), and reliability of community power (in Hot Springs). Duke is considering adding a solar facility in Hot Springs down the line to complete the dynamic energy duo.
Duke Energy recognizes that the grid is seriously stressed out. In North Carolina, as well as many other areas around the country, the population is growing rapidly. This means that high-concentration areas have even higher demand than before, and remote areas need better delivery methods.
"Western North Carolina is an ideal spot to use [battery] technology to serve remote areas, or where extra resources are needed to help existing energy infrastructure," said Robert Sipes, the VP of Duke's Modernization Project in the Western Carolinas. This specific project has a $1.1 billion budget, which begs the question: Why isn't Duke investing more than $30 million in battery storage?
Though it sort of looks like a no-brainer to many in the industry, battery storage has yet to prove itself practically in the regulated utilities area. Only 35 megawatts of storage capacity have been deployed by non-public regulated utilities thus far, making Duke's storage systems the largest projects yet. As Duke's energy storage assets become more central to their services, proving their immense value in the sector, more companies are sure to jump on board.
"A lot of regulated utilities don't have them in their territory now, but have seen the promise of battery storage technology and may be looking at projects of their own," said Wheeless. "Seeing Duke move forward will cause them to look and see how it may benefit them." Duke Energy has gone from using coal plants, to a mix of gas turbines and energy storage in recent years, modeling a big shift in the way energy is used in the region. They're confident that the rest of the country is going to start showing a similar shift in the months and years to come.

Nashville, TN -- Renowned guitarist James Burton will be saluted on Saturday, July 23, as part of the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum's popular series Nashville Cats: A Celebration of Music City Musicians. The program, which will begin at 1:30 p.m. in the Museum's Ford Theater, is included with Museum admission and free to Museum members. The program will be streamed live on www.CountryMusicHallOfFame.org.
Hosted by Bill Lloyd, the program will include a brief performance and an in-depth, one-on-one interview illustrated with vintage recordings, photos and film clips from the Museum's Frist Library and Archive. Immediately following the program, Burton will sign autographs in the Museum Store.
With musical influences ranging from the blues and R&B to country, Burton's pioneering guitar licks helped shape popular music in the 1950s and 1960s. He performed on radio and TV shows like Louisiana Hayride, Town Hall Party, The Adventures of Ozzie & Harriet and Shindig. Burton popularized the "chicken picking" style of guitar playing and was instrumental in developing the "Bakersfield Sound." His iconic guitar licks can be heard on recordings by Dale Hawkins ("Susie-Q"), Merle Haggard ("Mama Tried"), Emmylou Harris ("Two More Bottles of Wine"), Jerry Lee Lewis ("Rockin' My Life Away") and Ricky Nelson ("Hello Mary Lou"). He also recorded and toured with artists like the Beach Boys, Elvis Costello, John Denver, the Everly Brothers, the Mamas & the Papas, Roy Orbison, Buck Owens, Gram Parsons, Elvis Presley and many others.
Born on August 22, 1939, in Dubberly, Louisiana, James Burton showed interest in the guitar at a young age, often pretending to play the guitar by beating on a broomstick. His parents bought him his first electric guitar, a Fender Telecaster, when he was 13, and Burton remained loyal to the brand and model throughout his career.
After winning a few talent competitions, the 14-year-old Burton began a year-long guitar gig on the Louisiana Hayride, where he played behind artists such as Roy Acuff, Johnny Horton, George Jones and Hank Williams.
Over the next few years, Burton's work on the Hayride and his sessions with local talent in Shreveport stirred interest in his music. However, his big break came when he co-wrote "Susie-Q" with Dale Hawkins in 1957. The song's signature guitar lick put Burton on the map.
While in Louisiana, Burton met and began performing with Bob Luman. As a member of Luman's band, the Shadows, Burton moved to California and regularly appeared on Town Hall Party. In Hollywood, Burton met Ricky Nelson and soon received an invitation to join the backing band for The Adventures of Ozzie & Harriet. While recording with Nelson, Burton honed his unique style of playing: He began to use lighter gauge guitar and banjo strings, which allowed him to stretch the strings and get more twang in his sound. He first recorded this new sound on Nelson's "Believe What You Say."
TV appearances and tours with Nelson gave Burton more exposure and made him a hot ticket for recording sessions. As a member of Los Angeles's Wrecking Crew—a group of first-call session musicians—he worked with the Beach Boys, Glen Campbell, Nat King Cole, the Mamas & the Papas, Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra. His string-bending, Telecaster twang recordings with Merle Haggard and Buck Owens helped define the "Bakersfield Sound."
In 1968, Burton turned down an offer to play Elvis's comeback special because he was booked with sessions, but Presley called him again a year later and asked him to play his International Hotel shows in Las Vegas. Burton recorded and toured with Presley until his death in 1977. During his tenure with Presley, Burton also recorded with Gram Parsons. After Parsons died in 1973, Burton joined Emmylou Harris's first Hot Band. Harris took great care in scheduling her tour dates around Presley's so Burton could play both gigs. Eventually, two tours and a rigorous recording schedule became too much for Burton and he stopped touring with Harris.
After Elvis's death, Burton toured with John Denver for 15 years. Beginning with King of America (1986), Burton recorded four albums with Elvis Costello over the course of a decade. Amid the tours and TV specials, Burton remained an in-demand session musician. In 2010, Burton released a solo album of gospel songs, The Spiritual Strings of James Burton.
In addition to his music career, Burton also created the James Burton Foundation, which provides musical instruments and scholarships to children and young adults. He also regularly hosts the James Burton Guitar Festival to raise money for the Foundation.
Burton was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2001. Named one of Rolling Stone's Top 100 Guitarists of All Time, Burton is the winner of seven Country Music Association awards and a Grammy for Best Country Instrumental Performance for Brad Paisley's "Cluster Pluck," a collaboration with Vince Gill, John Jorgenson, Albert Lee, Brent Mason, Paisley, Redd Volkaert and Steve Wariner.
Burton resides in Shreveport, Louisiana and continues to record.

Top 5 movie cars: legendary and extravagant
Some cars from famous movies have become real stars and have become cultural symbols of different eras.
Some cars from famous movies have become real stars and have become cultural symbols of different eras.
We are going to present you top 5 best expensive and very rare muscle cars ever! So let's see!
Today we are going to tell you about the most expensive crossovers that we only van see on the street.
Muscle cars appeared in the Golden Age of Mechanical Engineering – in the 60s in the United States. It was affordable cars with powerful engines (mostly V8), which was known only to a single command: "Speed" There is also an unwritten rule that the ratio of the mass of the muscle car to power should not exceed 6 kg per 1 hp.
Gradually, the world oil prices made the business – American muscle cars have become available and powerful cars in the luxury goods, settled in the garages of collectors.
Many prestigious auto shows are organized every year where manufacturers can demonstrate to the public their concept cars.
The concept car is a prototype of the car of the future, which should demonstrate the new style of design and represent tomorrow's technology. They are often put on the auto show to test the reaction of the audience, and already there determine which solution to implement, any need to modify, and from the public to give up. We have compiled for you a selection of the best, in our opinion, concept cars of the last two years.
During the preparation of our cars' rating for teenagers we considered the relative affordability, security, ease of management and the attractiveness of a car in the eyes of teenagers. So let's see the top list!
Top managers of big companies really need a car that looks presentable, because these people are first and foremost people of the company. We pick you up 5 cool executive cars so you would not need to worry when choosing such a car.

Getting conversions for your business online is hard work. Using SEO and social media are your main tools for doing it and a lot of it is about persistence and even just plain good timing. Both of which are acquired skills that are often learned through an arduous process of trial and error. But there are some things you can usually count on to be true. One of them is that when someone makes a business transaction on your website, or at least makes a dedicated effort to do so, the odds are good that they will be interested in doing it again, or finish what they started. In either case, there are some tools you can use to seal the deal or make an established customer a return customer.
Retargeting, which is similar but technically different than remarketing – and sounds like something the Terminator would say while he's scanning for Sarah Connor – involves attracting a user who has displayed an invested interest in making a purchase or becoming a client from your website. Remarketing is similar in concept, only it is exclusive to email campaigns. Most notably remarketing is similar to the abandoned shopping cart emails you get when you don't finish a purchase on a website.
The difference is that remarketing directly contacts the user to remind them to complete the transaction they started while retargeting simply places ads for your business on other websites they visit online. So if a user navigates to your website online and begins to make a transaction but doesn't complete it and leaves you can use retargeting to try to get them back by reminding them with advertising. When they view your website a cookie gets left in their browser which then stays with them after they've left. Retargeting providers will then follow the user and display your ads where applicable on other websites that they visit such as social media like Facebook.
There are different ways to implement retargeting for your business online but all of them essentially involve putting a JavaScript tag in the footer of your website. If you use WordPress this can be achieved by simply installing a plugin, which plugin will probably just depend on what retargeting provider you choose to use. Adwords, Retargeter, AdRoll and Perfect Audience are all top retargeting providers who can effectively display your ads across all platforms.
There are certain techniques you can use to amplify the effect of your retargeting campaigns. Creating groups that are retargeted differently is a smart thing to do and is similar in many ways to making audiences for Facebook ad campaigns. This is all very useful since depending on the product and the customer you may want to vary your retargeting strategy. For example users interested in vacations should be retargeted immediately since prices for booking or airfare are dependent on time whereas users interested in clothing may not need to be retargeted with such urgency. More so than timing, frequency is also an important consideration because of the intrusive nature of retargeting.
There is a controversial element to this sort of marketing, which can make for a potential downfall of using it. Essentially with retargeting you are stalking potential customers online with your advertising. According to statistics, which you can read about more in depth in this article, it is the repetition of the same ad that tends to have a negative effect on potential conversions. Also when retargeted ads are displayed on websites entirely unrelated to the topic of the advertisement users tend to have a negative response to the retargeting campaign. You could probably say that retargeting is the most intrusive form of digital marketing but when used with moderation it is proven to have a positive impact on your business' ROI online.
If you want to get started using retargeting for your business visit the contact us page, there's a short form you can fill out and we'll get back to you to see what we can do for you.

I have to admit this is one of my most favorite scenes in the entire Book of Acts.
There were some Jews who traveled around throwing out evil spirits. They tried to use the power of the name of the Lord Jesus against some people with evil spirits. They said, "In the name of the Jesus whom Paul preaches, I command you!" The seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, were doing this. The evil spirit replied, "I know Jesus and I'm familiar with Paul, but who are you?" The person who had an evil spirit jumped on them and overpowered them all with such force that they ran out of that house naked and wounded.
This is an absolutely ridiculous scene: seven Jewish men running out of a house, probably tripping over each other, bruised and naked. I know spiritual warfare is not a joke, but this strikes me as funny.
This scene also paints a very serious picture of our relationships with God. We know from the Gospels that there were Jewish exorcists who really could cast out demons (see here). But here is a completely different situation. Here are some Jewish exorcists who invoke the name of Jesus through the name of Paul. This is the issue.
During the exorcism they do not appeal to the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob as faithful Jews would do. Rather, they appeal to Jesus, in whom they have no faith since they do not fully appeal to him, but the Jesus whom Paul preaches. They have no relationship with God whatsoever. And as a result, they are beaten and humiliated.
It is a good lesson to learn. We cannot ever depend upon the faith of someone else or someone else's relationship with God for our own well being or salvation. We must have our own relationship with God. If we will ever hope to overcome the evil forces in our own lives, we must have a real connection to God ourselves.
And that connection to God is only possible through the Holy Spirit, who is made available to us through Jesus Christ.
If you do not yet have that connection, I strongly urge you to seek out a Christian you trust and ask for guidance and instruction on how to have a relationship with God the Father through Jesus Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit. Having a relationship with God, which is being a follower of Jesus Christ, is not an easy life. It is one full of sacrifice and totally dependent upon God for everything. Yet it also is a rewarding life as it brings us victory over the sin and evil in our lives.
When we have that relationship, unlike the seven sons of Sceva, we are victorious over the evil forces that confront us.

Keep It Light
Code is serious business. It's not always mission-critical, life-dependent stuff, but any programmer who's spent long nights furiously trying to extinguish an inexplicable bug knows that it's often no laughing matter.
Yet I, and I think many in our careers, suffer from a condition called codeaphilia, a love of coding. The practice of it. Despite the frustration, the harsh deadlines, the constant quest for perfection (never achieved) and the thankless rewards, this is what I love to do. But it's still serious business.
I think of programming as a creative pursuit. From issues as prosaic as how to position a text field, to a problem as vexing as how to properly manage data sync between client and server, I have to bring all my creative energies to bear. The rush I get from correctly solving a problem is why I keep doing it.
Still, there are a lot of long, difficult hours between start and finish. And as I've been coding for many years, I've developed coping strategies. One that I happened to post on Twitter yesterday went like this:
Ha ha, I thought as I typed that out. A pressure valve opened, and I continued on with my coding with renewed energy.
Then, my dear friend Farley responded:
Well, sorry Farley, but this is how I do. Yes, I later removed my reference to Chaotic Good Alignment… but only because I couldn't think of a clever enough implementation for that particular option!
As I thought about this rebuke from someone I respect, it occurred to me that, dammit, I think humour in code is a good thing! Obviously, you don't want to take it too far, but thinking back on the code I write, I know that I take pleasure in writing pithy comments and variable names that make my job a little more enjoyable.
Some examples:
- When building up a complex cluster of class objects, I like to quote the great Carl Sagan:
/* "If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe" */ - When doing some routine data setup tasks, inject quotes from Star Trek. This was a happy serendipitous discovery months after I wrote it:
/* "Good tea. Nice house." – Worf. */ - When naming variables or methods in Objective-C, remove the stuffy tie and breathe, dammit:
NSInteger countingKitten; // a simple incrementor
NSView * ninjaView; // a background view that slides onscreen after init
No, this is definitely not the behaviour of an adult professional. And yes, I definitely cut this stuff out when I'm working on shared codebases with other developers.
But when I'm working on my own projects, you bet I inject humour into the code. It reminds me that I'm building a thing for humans. And I think when you challenge yourself to be funny, you'll engage the part of the brain that will be more creative in problem-solving.
Back to coding! Ha ha!

Did you know?
Wimbledon has been inhabited since at least the Iron Age when the hill fort on Wimbledon Common is thought to have been constructed.
Aside from the word Wimbledon being synonymous with the tennis tournament, it's also the name of a small farming locality in New Zealand and was named after the district in the 1880s after a local resident shot a bullock from a considerable distance away. The shot was considered by onlookers to be worthy of the rifle-shooting championships held in Wimbledon at the time.

Tea is the most commonly consumed beverage in the world next to water. In fact, tea has been recognised as a "superfood" for nearly 5000 years. It contains many antioxidants with health benefits that range from promoting weight loss to protecting against heart disease and boosting immune system function
According to research, moderate consumption of green and black tea can reduce the risk of coronary heart disease and stroke by 10% to 20%.
Now, we all know about the powerful health benefits of drinking tea, but not many people are aware that used teabags can also be useful in many different ways. For eg. You can refrigerate the used tea bags and place these cold bags on your eyes to reduce redness, puffiness, irritation, and to help get rid of dark circles. Cold damp tea bags can also be used for sunburns, bruises, bee stings and mosquito bites. Dry tea bag also work as a "natural deodorizer", just put them inside your smelly shoes overnight and it will absorb any unpleasant odors.
So don't just throw away your used tea bags, there are many things that you can do with them.
Below video from The Savings Experiment will show you some exceptional uses for used Tea Bags

Thank you. I will buy more great bags from you in the future.
This bag is well organized and the size is just perfect for my back.
My friend was RAVING about her new venque camera bag, so I was pretty convinced before I purchased it that I would love it, and I do!
-Using both the top and main compartment, I am storing 2 Canon, Full Frame DSLR bodies, 3 prime lenses, 1 Canon 35mm Film body, two Canon 580exII flashes, and a Contax 645 with 80mm Lens. On top of that, I have batteries, chargers, memory cards, and misc. things in the smaller pockets. That is a heck of a lot of gear in one backpack, and for that, I'm super impressed.
-The bag seems really well made. The padding is quality in all of the compartments, so I feel like my gear is safe. Zippers work well, craftsmanship overall is great.
-I don't love the snaps. They're a little hard to get secured when you have items in the pockets. (I do like that they're magnetic, though.)
-Also, I do like that it has a chest and waist strap, but I don't like the metal tighteners on the chest strap. (These same metal tighteners are on the tripod holders as well.) It's not very practical, takes too long to get on and off, and the metal pieces all over the bag make it a bit noisy. I also wish that the waist strap was padded around the sides.
-The back and shoulder straps are padded pretty well, but I could use a little more padding there when carrying so much gear, because it just gets so heavy.
-I wish there were more small, organizational pockets. For a normal backpack, I think it has plenty of pockets. But for a camera bag, it would be easier to keep things organized with more pockets. (I love that it has its own pocket for the rain cover, though, and a laptop!)
Overall, I think this bag is beautiful. I'm so impressed with the size and quality, especially for the price. Most beautiful camera bags are unjustifiably expensive. Even though I feel like improvements could be made, I definitely don't regret my purchase, and will recommend this bag to others!
The backpack exceeded all my expectations! It is so beautiful and I will be using it as a regular bag as well as a camera bag. Going to Costa Rica next week and can't wait to try it out for real! Thank you for making such fine quality bags!!
Great quality product and excellent service

If you read any recovery-based literature, go to an Al-Anon meeting, or hang out in the rooms of Alcoholics Anonymous, you may have run across the term "dry drunk." If you have a loved one who has stopped drinking, you may be thrilled for a time. When someone you care about gets rid of a destructive habit, everybody wins. At least, that is the way it is supposed to work until you realize that just stopping drinking is not enough to create a positive long-term change.
What is a Dry Drunk?
A dry drunk is someone who no longer drinks alcohol but still exhibits many of the same behaviors that he or she had while in active addiction. Dry drunks may have put down the drink, but the misery and unhealthy behaviors are alive and well. In fact, by taking alcohol out of the equation, there is a good chance that some of those unattractive behaviors will be magnified without the substance to numb emotions and regulate actions. Some of the unhealthy thinking and behaviors that characterize a dry drunk include:
- Anger and Resentment. Many dry drunks are reluctant quitters and resent the people or circumstances that pushed them into giving up alcohol. Look for sarcasm, emotional outbursts, and the withholding of affection as a just a few signs.
- A Sense of Entitlement. Not much is ever good enough for dry drunks. They have had to give up their best friend (alcohol), so they feel as if they are entitled to negative emotions and behaviors.
- Self-Pity. Dry drunks are sure that life is over and they will never laugh or have fun again.
- Blaming. Dry drunks will blame others for their troubles, failures, and shortcomings, never taking responsibility for their choices or actions.
- Grandiose. Many dry drunks have an over-inflated sense of importance. You cannot win an argument with them, and they may want to tell you how to best live your life.
The Difference Between a Dry Drunk and Someone in Recovery
Fortunately, a dry drunk is not the same thing as a person in recovery. If it was, who would ever want to stop drinking? Recovery provides a new way to live that is free of the desire to drink as well as other negative emotions. People living a strong recovery program find freedom from anger, fear, jealousy, and other negative emotions. They are able to repair damaged relationships, manage finances, and find career stability and success.
Some people find recovery from alcoholism and then lose it without picking up a drink again. Essentially, they turn into a dry drunk and need help to get back on the right path. For either group, those who have never had recovery before and those who have, there is help available at a reputable Florida alcohol rehab.
Where Can Dry Drunks Go for Help?
Recovery from addiction is a process that is not meant to take place in isolation. Alcoholism in its most severe state tends to isolate you as does being a dry drunk. Just putting down the drink is not enough to make a lasting change. If you or any of your loved ones are exhibiting the symptoms of dry drunk syndrome, help is available. Contact us now to learn about how our Florida alcohol rehab program can help you begin a healthy and productive journey in recovery.

Calahonda Property
Calahonda is East of Marbella and almost central between Marbella and Fuengirola. Easy access via the motorway enables travel to anywhere on the Costa del Sol. Malaga s international airport is 25 minutes away and Marbella s large shopping centre can be reached in just 15 minutes.
The region stretches gently from the coast up to the undulating hills 300 metres above sea level, offering fantastic views of the surrounding countryside running down to the sea, and along the coastline to Gibraltar and Africa ; the African Mountains and African coastline are often clearly visible.
Sitio de Calahonda is the largest property development you will find between Marbella and Fuengirola. In fact, this neighbourhood has grown so successfully that it could qualify as a town. However, residents have been unsuccessful in their attempts to separate it from Mijas, the municipality to which it belongs - and to which they must pay taxes.
Rural flavour and coastal lifestyle are two of Calahonda's most attractive features, because, although the area is developed, its founder was keen on green areas, large plots and limits on apartment buildings. Thus, the area has grown in a generally peaceful and rustic fashion.
While the vast majority of Calahonda's 600,000 square metres is devoted to villas, townhouses and space for four golf courses, selected areas have been dedicated to providing residents with every amenity imaginable. There are, therefore, three commercial centres which house most of the development's 50 restaurants, cafeterias and pubs as well as seven banks, several supermarkets and a wide variety of other businesses including: hardware, furniture, garden supply, travel agencies, car hire, car repair, property management and much more.
Health care needs are provided for by a chemist and three medical centres, offering 24 hour service. Furthermore, the state-funded Hospital Costa del Sol is well known as the Coast's state-of-the-art medical facility and is just minutes from Calahonda.
Sports are easily incorporated into a Calahonda lifestyle. For starters, there are a total of 10 golf courses within a 10 kilometre radius of this urbanisation, which also has its own port, Cabopino.
Calahonda golf lovers view the Costa del Sol as an international meeting point. The fantastic spring weather all over the year, the large accommodation and amenities offer, together with the super quality of more than 5 golf courses, convert into one of Europes best golf centres
Calahonda is a great location to find a decent bar if you're staying in the area and don't want to travel too far out of your way. Like all services in Calahonda the majority of the action takes place in the multi-storey commercial centre, El Zoco where Key Estates are based.
Calahonda, surrounded by 27 kilometres of coastline and 24 different beaches to choose from, has something for everyone. Whether you're into jet-ski-ing, sailing, star-spotting, balloon flights, cable ski-ing or simply enjoying some of the best fresh seafood in the world you'll find it all at Calahonda and Marbella's seafront and watersports centres.
For the unitiated, a great way to learn the basics of water ski-ing is at the Cable Ski centre based at Parque de las Medranas in San Pedro de Alcantara to the west of Marbella.
Calahonda has everything from oriental cuisine, international food to the exotic tastes of Southern Spain. Typical dishes are seafood, particularly the "el pescaito frito" famous in this area. Enjoying and experimenting with Andalucian cuisine is a fundamental part of your stay in the Costa del Sol. What better than an alfresco lunch commencing with a chilled summer gazpacho soup. Freshly harvested Mediterranean fish and a salad dressed with the finest Olive Oil. Here are a few restaurants in the Calahonda area to get your taste buds watering.

Agency Killer
Nov 28, 2010 - by Andrew McMains. Ari Emanuel wants your lead agency status. With the launch of Lverage, WME Entertainment's latest venture into brand marketing, Emanuel, co-CEO of WME, has set his sights on replacing, not supplementing ad agencies, said sources who've discussed the venture with him. To that end, he has surrounded himself with partners like former Omnicom Group vice chairman Michael Birkin who knows the ad game and is well connected with marketers.
Birkin is chief strategist for Red Peak Group, a New York-based specialist in brand consulting and experiential marketing that WME acquired for Lverage, said sources. Red Peak's CEO is Jay Lenstrom, former CEO of Omnicom's Radiate Group. WME also acquired the Red Interactive Agency in Santa Monica, Calif., and forged ties with Marc Byron, founder of Trivergance Business Resources, a direct marketing firm in Fort Lee, N.J., that remains a separate company.
In conversations with other potential partners, Emanuel has positioned WME as "more connected" than chief rival Creative Artists Agency and its more established marketing arm, which opened in 1998 after CAA shocked the ad industry by (briefly) overtaking McCann Erickson as lead agency on Coca-Cola. CAA Marketing today operates largely as an added resource for marketers who already have lead shops. As one source put it, "It doesn't feel like CAA is trying to disintermediate advertising agencies. These guys (at WME), really their goal is to get some big accounts and be the AOR."
The broader ambitions represent a break from WME's past efforts in this space via Endeavor Marketing and its chief, Mark Dowley. While Dowley this summer helped introduce Emanuel to players in the ad world, he may not play a role in Lverage, said sources. Endeavor Marketing is now part of Lverage. Dowley could not be reached, and Emanuel, through a representative, declined to comment.
The simple reason, of course, why Emanuel's marketing goals are bigger this time is that his agency is bigger. WME is the product of last year's merger of the William Morris Agency and Endeavor, the shop Emanuel opened with three colleagues from ICM in 1995. Additionally, WME now has access to fresh capital via a $300 million private equity fund at The Raine Group, in which the agency has a minority stake. The fund will enable WME to make investments that, in turn, could aid efforts to link talent and brand marketers.
Marketers are particularly alluring to WME these days because their dollars represent a potentially sizeable source of revenue for the agency's clients. As WME co-CEO Patrick Whitesell said of his clients at Google's Zeitgeist 2010 conference in September, "We know what their value is to consumers. We know what they are to advertisers. So, the next step is for us is, how can they economically benefit from those things that are out there and happening?" At the same conference, Emanuel added: "We're having more conversations with advertisers every day, whether it be the P&Gs, the GMs of the world. Almost on a daily basis now, you're having those conversations."
To move beyond transactional deals with such marketers and build brands long term, however, WME will likely need more strategic and creative firepower, said sources. That may explain why Emanuel approached former JWT North American president Rosemarie Ryan -- a strategic planner by trade -- and ex-JWT chief creative officer Ty Montague before the duo launched Co: in September, according to sources.
"There's absolutely merit in finding a way to bring that kind of creative pool together with advertisers and marketing companies," said a source. "What that (also) entails is really understanding brands, how they get built and all of that stuff. I think they see it solely as a creative endeavor and not necessarily a strategic endeavor as well. And I think you have to do both."

About 150 students at Hopkins High School staged a walkout Friday afternoon to protest what they called unfair treatment of minority students at the 1,800-student school in Minnetonka.
"What do we want?" "Equality!" "When do we want it?" "Now!" they chanted during the walkout on the balmy spring day, which broke up as soon as school let out and buses arrived about 2:30 p.m.
The students said they were protesting a culturally insensitive learning environment, including what they termed excessive suspensions of black and Latino students. Statistics on such suspensions were not available Friday.
The protesters also cited a February incident in which some members of the school's ski team dressed like rappers, prompting some black students to put up protest posters. Two black students then were charged with misdemeanors after an altercation with administrators over the issue.
"That was the straw that broke the camel's back," said Malika Mousa, a junior who helped lead Friday's protest.
Citing data privacy laws, school officials declined to discuss the February incident.
Earlier Friday, Principal Patty Johnson held a "listening session" with the students about their complaints and asked them not to walk out.
The administration issued this statement during the protest: "Our high school has a richly diverse student body, and we are committed to teaching all students. We recognize our students' right to protest, but also invite them to come back into the building and share any grievances they may have with the high school administration."
Johnson will continue to hold listening sessions on the issues the students have raised, a school spokeswoman said.
Jae Bates, an Asian-American junior, said administrators are much quicker to punish students who are black or Latino than they are other students. "I feel like I could do something 20 times worse than them and I might not get in trouble," he said.
Two other schools, both in Minneapolis, have experienced protests or walkouts this school year. In March, students at South High School held a protest after a lunchroom melee that apparently was linked to racial and ethnic tensions. Earlier this month, Washburn High School's principal was reassigned in the wake of student protests over her discipline of a popular athletic director and a January incident in which a black-skinned doll was hung in a school hallway.
Hopkins High serves students in grades 10-12 from Hopkins, Minnetonka, Edina, Eden Prairie, Golden Valley, St. Louis Park and Plymouth. In 2011-12, its student body was 67 percent white, 22 percent black, 6 percent Hispanic, 5 percent Asian and 4 percent American Indian.

The Loop (Games)
Do you like this video?
Battlefield 3: Aftershock is an installment in the Battlefield series for iOS platforms. It was set to be released on the same day as Battlefield 3 but was delayed until February 8, 2012. It was released for free on the US App Store and was later pulled from the App Store with servers shut down on March 31, 2012 due to negative reception.
The majority of the Battlefield community that played the game were very disappointed by the game. Despite being in Beta, it had only five weapons, one map, and one game mode, with "irritating" controls, as described by most of the feedback in the iTunes Store.

Ready to sign up for the photoshoot? Just go to Genlighten.com, create a free account, and reply to the welcome message to let us know when you're available between 10:30 am and 2:30 pm on Friday. We'll put you on the list and reply with an arrival time. It's going to be fun!
Want to know more? Read on!
If you're a genealogy professional, a great headshot can help create a positive first impression as you work to market your research and/or speaking services.
Headshots are an important part of provider profiles on Genlighten, but they're also key to, say, Association of Professional Genealogists directory pages and the "about me" sections of business websites.
If you need a quality photo to help market your genealogy services, we'd like to help.
It's time for another Genlighten Headshot Extravaganza!
We've hired a professional photographer to take headshots at the Genlighten booth at the the National Genealogical Society conference in Grand Rapids on Friday, May 4, from 10:30 am – 2:30 pm. (There will be no conflicting classes or events between noon and 2:30 pm that day.)
The event is free and you do not have to be a research provider on Genlighten to participate–although, of course, we hope you'll consider that possibility.
Sitting for the photo will just take a few minutes out of your already-busy conference schedule and Sheryl will work hard to put you at ease. The resulting photo will be yours to use for marketing your business, no strings attached.
Here's how it works:
- Create a free log-in on Genlighten (user name, password, email address) and add your name to the account so we can match your photo to your email address when the time comes to deliver your headshot. (We won't spam you and we won't share your account information. This is just an easy way to make sure that we can get your photo to you.)
- Reply to the Genlighten welcome message to let us know you'd like to participate, and tell us when you'd be available between 10:30 am and 2:30 pm.
- We'll put you on the schedule for a 5-minute slot and reply with the time you should plan to arrive.
- Your photo will be ready approximately 2 weeks after NGS and we will email a link so you can download it. We'll also provide you with a release giving you permission to use the image.
So, why are we sponsoring this event? Because it helps us get the word out about Genlighten. Because it's a way that our marketing dollars can have a long-lasting, positive impact on the genealogy community. And because, quite frankly, it was a lot of fun when we did it at RootsTech and we're looking forward to doing it again!
If you have any questions, just email email@example.com.
See you at NGS!

Hello Love!
Breast cancer changed my life in the most positive way!
I was diagnosed aged 35 with no family history of cancer of any kind. It was an instant steep learning curve but one I embraced from the start. I had always been very sporty, ate well and lived very healthy or so I thought at the time. I had always been into health and healing through non conventional ways so it was a hard decision deciding to do Chemo, getting my eggs frozen and doing Radiotherapy. I decision I would no longer personally have taken.
The doctors told me I had no time to decide and I must start treatment instantly. I now regret putting my body through the overdose of toxic chemicals as I believe like a growing number of other people that I could have healed through non conventional western ways. But in going through chemotherapy etc I can now relate to others that go through the same and help educate them in my mission that is dedicated to NonToxic Practice(TM) and prevention of Cancer.
Five years on I run Hello Love. The Home, Studio and Dojo at 62-64 Southampton Row in Holborn London. I set up with Kevin, my Cancer Wingman and partner in crime. It is also the spiritual home of my breast cancer charity the Hello Beautiful Foundation.
Prevention is key! Prevention of a re-occurrence is also so important. At Hello Love the basis of this practice takes place on 3 levels:
Mindfulness and positive emotional awareness as a means to living freely without stress and anxiety.
Organic plant-based diets that are free from animal proteins, processed sugars and genetic modifications. This extends into natural cosmetics
and finding products that have not been laced with parabens, pesticides and other chemical compounds.
Qi Gong, Sound Massage, Meditation and other holistic forms to realign the spiritual center and unify our purpose.
Over the last 5 years I followed this practice and dramatically changed my lifestyle. Its not a quick win it takes time, dedication and commitment but the rewards are immense. The way my body feels and the energy I now have is greater than I have ever experienced.
I started by throwing away all of my cosmetics. I had hundreds of pounds worth of everyday brands like Clinique and Mac make up. So many cosmetics from shampoo, toothpaste, hair dyes and nail vanish contain harmful chemicals including Parabens, Sodium Laureth Sulphate and many harmful detergents. Sadly my hospital prescribed a lot of these to me during Radiotherapy. Instead of helping to release the radiation they suggested rubbing my breasts in Petrolatum laced cream that would not allow my skin to breathe. Luckily my constant research helped me to be knowledgeable not to use what they were prescribing. I'm now starting to make my own cosmetics as nothing is as pure and healthy than knowing 100% what is going into what you use. We even use NonToxic paint at Hello Love so we are not breathing in so many chemicals on a day to day basic.
My food regime has changed gradually over the last 5 years. 3 years ago I would say I was eating super healthy and I am sure in another 3 I will think what I am eating right now isn't that great. It's about constant learning and growing and not stressing over anything! If one day you are dying for a cake then have it.
I only buy organic food. I make my own organic muesli on a morning and add some berries. I cut out diary due to the estrogen levels in animal products and I make my own nut milks. Bought nut milks often contain cancer causing emulsifiers and everything you make yourself is better than buying as you know 100% what is going into it. I eat a plant based diet. My plate is always full of colour. There is so much choice, variety and my taste buds are so intense after getting rid of processed foods, preservatives, sugar and meat from my diet. I also love juicing. We have an organic juice bar, tea house and vegan cafe at Hello Love and follow Gerson therapy of cold pressed juices which are full of nutrients and healing qualities.
Finally I focus on my soul. These days I work more than ever but I make sure im never stressed about it. If the train is jammed full I will wait and get on the next one or wait for the next 6 to come before I stress to squeeze on. In other words I go around as stress free as possible.
Being in the moment is key. Not worrying about the past or the future but only concentrating on the exact moment you are in. At Hello Love we offer a range of holistic practices that I practice myself. Meditation, Qi Gong, Sound massage, Gong Baths, Reflexology, Aromatherapy, yoga etc. The more I practice the more I lead a healthy lifestyle to help not only prevent a re-occurrence but help prevent so many illnesses.
I can now say I love every minute of life, the good and the bad and I love all I am learning from my cancer experience.

BC Hockey will welcome a new high-performance team this spring.
On Oct. 23, the organization introduced a new U15 program and a restructuring of its U16 program. In a release, BC Hockey explained the changes were necessary because Hockey Canada was moving the U17 program to its jurisdiction.
The first run of the U15 program will be in April, when regional camps open across the province. Any player eligible to attend one of BC Hockey's provincial championships in Tiers 1 through 4 will be eligible to attend one of the regional camps. From there, the top 160 players will be selected to take part in a provincial tournament in May. More details on the regional camps will be released at a later date.
Meanwhile, there will no longer be regional camps for the U16 program, as players will be evaluated with their club teams. The top 120 players will take part in the Male U16 BC Cup, and from there, players will be invited to the Male U16 Provincial Camp in July.
In terms of the U17 approach, players in the running for the World Under-17 Hockey Challenge will be invited to a national camp over the summer. It's part of a major change for Hockey Canada, which had traditionally sent five regional teams to the tournament. This year, Canada is entering three teams with no regional divisions for the tournament, which runs in Sarnia and Lambton, Ont. from Nov. 2 to 8.
Whistler Minor Hockey Association administrator Sandi Wentzel said in an email the changes won't make any difference.
"These changes only refer to the U16 High Performance program, which takes the top U16 players in each zone and makes up a High Performance rep team," Wentzel noted. "No impact on WMHA."
RPM/Pacific Rim Hockey Academy founder Craig Millin, whose company runs the Whistler Secondary Hockey Academy and the Howe Sound Hockey Academy, said the changes won't affect his approach, as BC Hockey programs run outside school hours.

Assume you have in your arsenal a way to describe 3145 type hands over an opening notrump. A popular method is a direct jump to 3♥ or 3♠ showing the singleton; I happen to use 2♠ followed by 3 of a major for such hands. But my philosophy is that responder (to a 15-17 notrump) needs about 11+ hcp outside the short suit to employ the gadget; with 9 or 10 just gamble 3NT. This make the bid more slammish and completely game forcing -- no stopping in four of a minor. How many here agree?
For a specific example, I held as West Q64 9 K984 AQ843 on board 6 of Wednesday afternoon's Common game, and used our gadget. Demote the ♦K to the ♦J and I would've jumped straight to 3NT.

Alibaba's Jack Ma said to be in discussions to buy SCMP stake
[BEIJING] Alibaba Group Holding Ltd's founder Jack Ma is in talks to buy a stake in the publisher of Hong Kong's South China Morning Post (SCMP), according to people familiar with the matter, in what could make him the latest Internet-industry tycoon to pursue the revival of a traditional newspaper.
Discussions are at an advanced stage, two of the people said, asking not to be identified because the negotiations are private. A signing ceremony will be announced soon, one of the people said. Financial details of the deal weren't available.
Once the world's most profitable newspapers, SCMP has followed the path of other mastheads with falling earnings and shrinking circulation as readers shift online. Control of the city's premier English-language broadsheet has been unchanged since Rupert Murdoch sold most of his stake to Malaysian billionaire Robert Kuok in 1993.
The SCMP and Alibaba declined to comment. When asked whether he's interested in buying the SCMP, Ma said in an interview this month that he's "watching a lot of companies right now". Attempts to reach Mr Kuok's group that owns the SCMP were unsuccessful.
Alibaba's Ma would be following in the footsteps of Amazon.com Inc's Jeff Bezos - who bought the Washington Post in 2013 - among Internet tycoons snapping up storied brands at a time printed media struggles to compete with Web-based competitors for advertising. Chris Hughes, one of the co- founders of Facebook Inc, bought a majority stake in the New Republic magazine in 2012.
SCMP Group Ltd, which has posted three years of profit declines, has been suspended from trading since February 2013 after the company failed to have at least 25 per cent of shares held by minority investors, the minimum proportion required for a company to trade its shares in Hong Kong.
While the 112-year old SCMP newspaper is its most visible asset, the group also has operations in businesses ranging from recruitment to magazines and contract printing.
The China Daily reported earlier this month that rumours were circulating that Alibaba was in talks to invest in the SCMP Group.

Tristan Ozzy Jonathon!
Our Baby Boy!
Tristan was born on 9/11/02 at 8:56am! About 6 weeks before his original due date, Tristan spent the first month of his life in the NICU! It was rough, but we made it! So hopefully this is a consolation for those with Preemies still in the NICU! You will make it through! We did! :)
Tristan is our first baby, this page is under construction, but hopefully it will get a little more refined.. if we have time that is!
February 11, 2003, will be Tristan's 5 month old B'day! He's doing very well, and like they predicted he is a little behind schedule comparing to on-time babies, but they said he'll catch up! We're not worried! He's too cute to worry too much about him!
of baby Tristan.

By Jagdish
Price: 9,03,800
An adoring artistic piece with a sports car soul
Pros : Amazing looks, sleek design, smooth finish, easy to handle and an assurance of long term commitment of comfortable ride
Cons : Looks are pretty similar to Vento and Fabia; interiors are very simple for a car of luxurious segment
Finally I purchased the car I was waiting for the last six months and been taking test drives of the available models but found none of them alluring and soothing to the senses. I am bored of Honda's City that has nothing new to offer, Hyundai's Verna Fluidic is good but looks fragile and is not rugged enough to face our roads for a long time, Ford Figo is good but is not appealing and lacks in attractiveness then I took test drive of the beautiful mast looking sedan named Rapid. Car looks appealing and binds the eyes at the very first glance and I lost my heart to the broad wide headlights beautifully embedded fog lamps and smooth finishing. Car gives the luxurious feel at the very first touch however critics say it looks very similar to Fabia and Vento so if you look it from far it will look similar to them however a closer look makes all the difference.
Interiors are very classy and luxurious and make it a king of the 8 to 10 lac segment. It wins from City in style and elegance and is more rugged than Hyundai Verna, looks beautiful bombshell in comparison to Ford's Figo and all the above it has a fresh feeling of being new. It clearly wins the show and the availability of both the diesel and petrol variant gives a wide variety to buyers.
Rapid is awesome piece of French engineering and will surely do marvels in our economy who always welcomes a good easy on pocket wagon that assures safe and comfortable ride at a much reasonable price. It's a great car in a best price.

When Facebook acquired Oculus VR back in March for $2 billion, a lot of people were left scratching their heads — or flat out fuming. It seemed like an odd marriage at the time, but consider this: Oculus really wants to build a 1 billion person MMO.
That's according to CEO Brendan Iribe. He knows that it's going to take a massive global network to support, and there aren't many bigger than Facebook's in 2014. Facebook has already built a computing behemoth capable of supporting nearly 1.3 billion users, endlessly processing their status updates, photo uploads, surveys, and Candy Crush achievements with nary a hiccup.
It's quite possible that Facebook's infrastructure was what really got the crew at Oculus excited about the acquisition. Obviously, direct access to Facebook's entire population of 1.3 billion users is an exciting prospect, too. Particularly when Oculus knows that the 1 billion user MMO isn't going to happen overnight and that simple conversations are the first step on the road to get there.
Iribe told the audience at Techcrunch Disrupt in New York that Oculus wants to give people a way to engage in "real" conversations with each other online, saying "that's the Holy Grail we're trying to get to." Presumably that means much more immersive than merely using Facebook's Skype-assisted video chat feature with an Oculus Rift over your face
Don't panic. Iribe wasn't saying that the Rift is going to be drifting away from gaming now that they're plugged in to the Facebook network. Gaming remains a top priority, but the company wants developers to know that their aspirations go far beyond that.
As Iribe pointed out to the Disrupt crowd, there's a whole lot more profit potential with a billion users on a VR/AR platform than there would be on one that's focused solely on gaming and has 20 or 50 millions users as the ultimate goal.
What do you think, Geek readers? Are you ready to pick up an Oculus Rift and become one of the billion?

Individuals – Bankruptcy
Personal debt and bankruptcy
Although being declared 'bankrupt' will always carries some stigma, for many people struggling with personal debt it will be the best way forward and more appropriate for their financial and circumstances than an Individual Voluntary Arrangement or debt management plan.
For individuals battling with intolerable personal debts, bankruptcy can be the best to secure a debt-free future. It is a court-based procedure, where the debtor can either petition to be declared bankrupt or have it forced on them by a creditor. A Trustee takes control of the assets and will sell them to pay off as much of the overall debt as possible. The Trustee has extensive powers of investigation so trying to hide assets can have disastrous consequences, including bans from running businesses in future or even in the most extreme cases a jail sentence.
The bankruptcy process
Bankruptcy can be a straightforward way to reset the debtor's financial affairs and in most instances all debts and liabilities are written off when the bankrupt is discharged after just 12 months or sometimes even sooner. Debtors can declare themselves bankrupt by filing what is known as a Debtor's Petition if they are prepared to admit that they cannot repay their debts. Alternatively a creditor can file a Bankruptcy Petition if they are owed more than £5,000. In either case, the Court will then make a Bankruptcy Order.
Bankrupt individuals are under a legal duty to assist the Trustee in all respects. A Trustee has up to three years from the date of the Bankruptcy Order to realise any interest in the property in which the bankrupt lives and sell any other assets. If the bankrupt has any surplus income, they can be ordered to make payments out of their income to the Trustee for the benefit of the creditors for a period of three years.
Where the behaviour of the bankrupt justifies it, the Official Receiver can obtain a Bankruptcy Restriction Order or a voluntary undertaking from them which can last between two and fifteen years. The bankrupt will be subject to a variety of restrictions, most commonly they are not allowed to take part in the management of a business during that period.
Opus will undertake a free initial confidential consultation to assess whether bankruptcy is the best option for an individual given their personal circumstances. If we think that bankruptcy is the best route forward, our specialists will support the individual every step of the way through the process. Our partners can be appointed as Trustee and will act in the best interests of all parties.
