Crowd testing provider of the year — Applause
Applause, the Boston-based firm that specialises in crowd testing, teamed up with Santander to develop a mobile app for the Spanish market that will be fit for purpose in a new era of open banking. The success of Applause is based on the expertise of the many manual testers that it brings to the table -- a counterpoint to the dominant theme of automation in software testing.
The European Union's Payments and Services Directive comes into force in January 2018, and there's no doubt that it is already redefining the way financial services firm operate. Amongst other things the directive will force banks to open up their APIs to third parties -- the PSD2 rule -- which means they will be obliged to share customer account details to competitors, if that is approved by customers and regulators.
The EU hopes this will increase competition, allowing consumers access to new technologies that are dependent on access to that data. Naturally, many larger banks see this as a threat, as new challengers will be able to hitch a ride on established infrastructures for their new services.
Banco Santander, part of the giant Santander Group that has expanded rapidly through acquisitions both at home and abroad over recent years, says it sees the opportunity. It is building an app for its Spanish customers that will help them manage their money, partly by enabling the app to access information held for those customers at other financial services firms in Europe. The only condition will be that those third party firms have the open APIs.
In effect, says Banco Santander, it wants to be a fintech disruptor. It wants its customers to be able to use the Santander app to break down their spending in detail, to see where their money is going, and to better balance their budgets. All of which requires connectivity with the other online accounts they hold.
The app project is originated in Santander's Digital Area, a specialised group that is managing partnerships with technology companies working on new products for Santander customers in Europe and Latin America. And one aspect of that innovative approach is software testing, where Santander decided to engage crowd-testing company Applause.
Crowd testing works by using a geographically distributed network of freelancers to test customer-facing applications and websites. This allows real world tests in different locations, on different devices, to make sure that regionally-specific features work as they are intended. It also allows testing to be scaled up and down to according to requirements.
"We first started using our own employees to test the app on the Applause platform in the second quarter of 2016," said Victor Tavares, Madrid-based director at Santander's Digital Area and product owner for the project. "When we saw how useful it was, we decided to go ahead and use Applause professional testers."
According to Tavares, crowd testing was an effective response to the challenge presented by the proliferation of mobile systems and devices, allowing access to a pool of testers who personally own different mobile devices running different operating systems. These are professional testers who examined every detail of the new application to spot errors.
Another advantage is customer feedback early on in the development process. "Open banking is fundamentally customer-centric, and crowd testing is another step on that path," Tavares. "It allows us to get the opinions of testers on how the app looks and feels overall. We want to build an app that provides a good experience, not just one that works."
According to Rahul Shah, the Palo Alto-based senior vice president for global delivery and customer success at Applause, this granular level of qualitative analysis sets crowd testing apart from other methodologies.
"Testers can rate the quality of the sign-in process, for example, they can give feedback on the language that is used, whether it is straight-forward and whether it makes sense in the cultural context," said Shah. "This kind of feedback is crucial to design apps that are simple. If a customer gets frustrated or if their banking takes too long, they will delete the app."
It may be surprising that banks, notoriously and necessarily security conscious, are candidates for crowd testing. And indeed some do have reservations about the privacy and security issues involved in using freelance testing networks. Applause has a number of measures in place to stop information leaks, said Shah. "Security starts from our web portal, which is extremely secure. All our testers must sign non-disclosure agreements. We also have customer success experts that mediate between the community and the client, so that our customers can make sure that everything goes smoothly."
The relationship between Applause and Santander is set to continue into 2018. "We are testing a new version of the app that has many added functionalities, and Applause will help us with that," said Santander's Tavares.
And one sign of the growing status of crowd testing for financial apps: Applause successfully completed a $35 million funding round in October 2016 that included Accenture as a minority investor in the company.

I headed to this sitting wondering what kind of landscape I'd find. Living in Adelaide means that nowhere is really that far and if you head an hour in any direction you'll find something completely different. On this day I found silvery skies over the water, a forest of trees that looked like they had pom-poms on them, a carpet of pussy willow grass and the beautiful river grasses. I felt like I couldn't do it all justice in just a few hours of shooting, but we gave it a good hot go.
A huge thank you to this beautiful family who unwittingly invited me to the exact place I needed to be that day. xxx

Weekly Market Commentary - What Investors Should Watch this Earnings Season
- While macroeconomic data and events are likely to remain key drivers of the market this week, microeconomics will also garner investors' attention as companies begin to release first quarter earnings reports.
- In each of the past two years, as the last week of April unfolded, the S&P 500 Index peaked and began to decline 16-19% as the back half of the earnings season got underway. We will be watching developments closely to determine if a repeat of that pattern will emerge again this year.
- During this earnings season, we are paying special attention to the breadth of earnings growth, earnings guidance on upcoming quarters, and profit margins.
After a strong first quarter, the stock market, measured by the S&P 500 Index, got off to a weak start in the second quarter with a decline of -0.7% last week. Investors focused on the Federal Reserve's (Fed) lack of support for round three of quantitative easing (QE3) in the minutes that were released from the March Fed meeting. As we noted a few weeks ago in our commentary, this is one of the 10 indicators we are watching that might foreshadow another spring slide in the stock market.
While macroeconomic data and events are likely to remain key drivers of the market this week, microeconomics will also garner investors' attention as companies begin to release their first quarter earnings reports. While only a handful of S&P 500 companies report results this week, it is widely considered to be the start of earnings season with big, well-known companies like Alcoa and JPMorgan Chase due to report first quarter results.
Four times a year investors focus on the most fundamental driver of investment performance: earnings. The close connection between earnings and stock market performance can be seen in the fact that the S&P 500 Index and earnings per share have both risen about 80% over the past three years. A slowdown in earnings growth may indicate the same for the stock market.
Stock market momentum has stalled over the past few weeks during the period known as the pre-announcement, or confession, season—so called because business leaders often use this period to offer investors guidance on how the quarter's results are shaping up relative to expectations. This season, of the companies that pre-announced first quarter earnings guidance in recent weeks, the ratio of negative-to-positive news was 3.0, worse than the average ratio of 2.3 since 1995.
The first quarter earnings season runs about four to six weeks, starting around two weeks after the close of the quarter. During this earnings season, we are paying special attention to the breadth of earnings growth, earnings guidance on upcoming quarters, and profit margins.
Breadth of Earnings Growth
We believe first quarter earnings are likely to post a mid-single-digit percentage gain from a year ago as earnings growth continues to decelerate.* The fourth quarter of 2011 marked the first time earnings growth fell into the single digits since the recovery began in 2009. The slowing growth rate for S&P 500 company earnings reflects not only slower growth among individual companies, but also reflects the shrinking number of companies expected to post growth in earnings for the quarter with about 20% of companies expected to reveal declines.
Just like the recent performance of the stock market, earnings growth is being driven by fewer companies. In fact, just one company, Apple Inc., is expected to account for 1.4 percentage points—or about a third of the growth in earnings for the entire S&P 500. The same single company, Apple Inc., accounted for 15% of the performance of the S&P 500 in the first quarter.
The fewer the number of companies that drive earnings growth (and stock market performance), the more vulnerable the overall market is to disappointments and declines.
Earnings Guidance and Revisions
The first couple of weeks of the first quarter earnings seasons in April 2010 and April 2011 largely contained good news and drove earnings estimates higher. Earnings estimates for S&P 500 companies for the next year rose a greater-than-average 3-5% during the first couple of weeks of reports. But as the second half of the earnings season got underway in early May 2010 and May 2011, forward earnings guidance disappointed analysts and investors, and the pace of upward revisions declined sharply. This year, we will be watching to see how much earnings expectations rise as the initial reports come in and if they begin to taper off sharply.
The consensus of analysts tracked by Thomson Financial expects earnings growth of 3% in the first quarter of 2012 (compared to the first quarter of 2011). While the bar of expectations may be low for the first quarter of 2012, looking further out on the calendar to the fourth quarter of 2012, year-over-year earnings growth estimates for S&P 500 companies remain high at 16.3%, according to data from Thomson Financial. Earnings guidance may result in substantial downward revisions to earnings growth for coming quarters, undermining support for the stock market.
Profit Margins
The analyst consensus forecast of 3% earnings growth in the first quarter is the slowest growth rate since the recovery in earnings began in 2009. The weakness stems from the end of profit margin expansion. Analysts expect earnings to track revenue growth of about 4%.
Over much of the past few years, companies were able to post earnings growth rates that were several times the pace of revenue growth as profit margins expanded, granting more profit per dollar of sales. However, the ability to post faster earnings growth than revenue growth has faded; rising costs have contributed to slower earnings gains relative to revenue. In fact, nearly a quarter of S&P 500 companies are expected to report a year-over-year drop in earnings per share despite year-over-year revenue gains in the first quarter. Three sectors are expected to post earnings declines despite revenue growth. The most dramatic of these is the Materials sector, where 5% revenue growth is expected to accompany a -15% decline in earnings.
Earnings per share (EPS) is the portion of a company's profit allocated to each outstanding share of common stock. EPS serves as an indicator of a company's profitability. Earnings per share is generally considered to be the single most important variable in determining a share's price. It is also a major component used to calculate the price-to-earnings valuation ratio.
In this environment, those areas of the market able to sustain their profit margins are likely to be rewarded by investors. These sectors may include the Information Technology and Industrials sectors. Companies in these sectors are those that appear likely to generate higher-than-average earnings growth rates in the first quarter.
Importantly, the companies that report early in the season are most often not the bellwethers they are commonly thought to be. We may not really know how overall corporate results for the first quarter are shaping up until early May, when about half of the S&P 500 companies will have reported. In each of the past two years, as the last week of April unfolded, the stock market peaked and began to decline 16-19% as the back half of the earnings season got underway. We will be watching developments closely to determine if a repeat of that pattern will emerge again this year.

So I'm really thinking I want to take a trip to the country known as Asia. Of course I know it's not a country, but everyone else seems to refer to "Europe" as though it is a country so hell, why not me? Anyway I got a good look at this girl's asshole this weekend when we were 69ing. I was worried that it would be hairy etc., but it looked perfect and tight, just like in a lot of pornos.

SYDNEY, Sept 13 (Reuters) - The policies of India and Pakistan have contributed to an global glut in the world's sugar market, Australia's Minister for Trade Simon Birmingham told Reuters.
"It is clear that export subsidies introduced recently by the Indian and Pakistan Governments have contributed to a growing glut on global markets," Birmingham said in an emailed statement to Reuters.
" has expressed its concerns to the Indian and Pakistani Government at the highest levels in the clearest possible terms."
Raw sugar futures in New York slumped to a 10-year low of 9.91 cents on Aug. 22 as India and Pakistan both imposed price subsidies to boost local production.

The results are in for our third online coding contest; the 2016 Riot Games API Challenge. Back in April, we asked community developers to utilize Champion Mastery data to create a project in one of three categories: Entertainment, Usability/Practicality, or Creativity/Originality. We're very happy to present the winners of the 2016 Riot Games API Challenge:
We saw several games built around Champion Mastery each with its own merits, but our favorite was Mastery Duel. We've seen several card games based around League of Legends but this card game allows a player to utilize their most played champions based on their Champion Mastery.
There were a lot of entries that took a snapshot of a player's Champion Mastery, but we felt Mastery Profiler had one of the most usable implementations. Mastery Profiler covered all the bases with a quick statistical overview, a graphical breakdown by lane, and a way to search and sort through your own mastered champions.
In a unique take on Champion Mastery, this entry utilized a player's mastered champions as a unique "fingerprint." What better way to present this fingerprint to the user than through music?! Who wouldn't want a song tailored to their own champions?
League Mastery by Kingpool (EUW) and CrazyyCheshire (EUW)

Sprinkler repair tip #1: Install a manual valve first—and if you can, find a buddy you trust to stand by it. I do not recommend giving this job to anyone, particularly small children (or grown-ups that act like small children), who think it's funny to watch you get soaked.
Ever wonder where something like an iPhone 7 comes from before it winds up on the shelf? Sure they're sleek, but electronics are also notoriously complex to manufacture—because so many difference types of materials go into them. Of the 118 elements on the periodic table, at least 70 can be found in cell phones. The supply chain for electronics criss-crosses all over the globe. Now, a new game, called In the Loop, helps you unravel it.
It's the night before Christmas Eve and you're frantically stitching new PJs for Jonny, or maybe it's the day before the school play and you're working on Little Red Riding Hood's cape, or maybe you're enjoying a little quiet afternoon sewing, when suddenly everything stops—the needle, the hand wheel, your heart. You're in a jam—or at least your project is. Fear not, we've got some tips for you from our friend Rob Appell—host of Man Sewing and sewing machine repair expert.
Want to make sure you get the most out of your sewing machine as it ages? Then keeping it regularly maintained is crucial. Sewing machines are delicate, complicated creatures—but with a little TLC, your machine will last longer, sew better, and require fewer repairs. We asked sewing machine repair exert Rob Appell what owners can do to keep their sewing machines in tip-top shape.
Big Bird and the gang instantly transport me back to my childhood—in footie pajamas, singing along to Sesame Street's familiar theme song. Since its premiere in 1969, Sesame Street has taught millions of kids around the globe to count, read, and sing. But Sesame Street also teaches kids something that can't be taught in schoolbooks—the value of caring for themselves, their community, and the world. What better way to teach some of life's greatest lessons than through repair?
Without fail, zippers are the first thing to break on a much-beloved jacket. If you're living with a broken zipper, take heart. You aren't the only one. I once spent months with a giant box full of broken zippers—learning how to fix them all and creating some handy resources to fix your glitchy garments. Fortunately, zippers are actually pretty easy to fix—once you know the tricks.
My boots have been through a lot—weekend hikes, snowshoeing in high country, and dozens of backpacking trips. And it looked like they'd hiked their last. I feel like I owe it to them to have another chance. So instead of just hosing them off and tossing them by the door, I decided to have a second look. The damage wasn't really that bad. A bit of peeling in the left toe and some torn webbing that holds the laces on the right. Here's how I fixed it.
You can't miss the engineering marvels when you walk into the hangar at NASA's Armstrong Flight Research Center. When I was at the facility, I saw various vintages of aircraft scattered throughout the hangar. Cranes scuttled about. Staff hustled along marked walkways, running tests and preparing instruments—a beehive of activity. What you can't tell at first glance, though, is that these beautiful machines—new and old—aren't just marvels of engineering. They are also masterpieces of repurposing.
Today, my friends, is a holiday. A holiday for you. A holiday for me. A holiday for people who need to take a little mental breather. Today is No Brainer Day. No, seriously, it's a real holiday—or at least that is what the internet says. And you can't lie on the internet. How does iFixit plan on celebrating the day? With some no-brainer repairs. These fixes are so simple, anyone can do them. Check them out on the blog.

The area surrounding Fourth Amendment law and the use of certain tactics to gain evidence and insight as to what occurs within a home without a warrant has long been in debate, and recently further clarified by the Supreme Court in Florida v. Jardines. What constitutes a search and seizure within the rights of an individual is something that has been clearly outlined within the United States Constitution in the Fourth Amendment, or so the public seems to think. The rights are those that the people have to be free of such unreasonable searches and seizures in their houses, and persons, without a warrant that establishes probable cause. But understanding the actual concept of when you are being searched and if it is protected under the Fourth Amendment can be confusing. There are tests that have been developed by the courts to determine when a search under the Fourth Amendment has been conducted. If a "search" does not meet one of the tests that the courts use, there can be no violation of an individual's afforded protections under the Fourth Amendment. Understanding these tests and when to apply them based on certain criteria and facts surrounding a search would mean understanding the origin and development of the cases. One of the first cases to emerge a test to determine when a search under the Fourth Amendment was being conducted was Katz v. United States. Then, with United States v. Jones and later cases, the Court reintroduced the trespass rationale to the reasonable expectation of privacy test. What Jardines, the most recent of these Fourth Amendment cases to be decided did, was solidify the limitations that have been placed on police officers regarding when they have the ability to gather information about a person, or their home, without a warrant and/or probable cause.

You might have to transfer the ownership of your firearms including the 12(6) class. Assuming you take an R/PAL course to be able to acquire firearms in the future, you will never get a 12(6) at all. Years ago, my mentor gave his son a rifle. He forgot to renew his PAL and within the next few days, he has to transfer ownership back to my mentor for he is now in possession of a firearm illegally. As far as I know (I might be wrong), you cannot renew an expired license.

Have you ever watched "Whose Line Is It, Anyway?" and wondered how the actors create scenes and characters with just a few suggestions and get big laughs?
In a weekend that offers an improvisational comedy performance and workshop, RAAC Community Theatre will help pull back the curtain on improv — what it is, how it's done, and how to apply it in your own life.
On Saturday, Sept. 25, at 7:30 p.m. at the RAAC Community Theatre, Precipice Improv Theater of Washington D.C., and Face Off Unlimited from New York City will perform a show created from audience suggestions and local references. For 15 years, Precipice has presented cutting-edge comedy improv in Washington D.C., Maryland, and Virginia. Face Off, founded in 2002, performs one of the most successful and longest running comedy shows in New York.
"In improv, nothing is decided in advance. The actors discover their characters and the plot at the same time as the audience," says Gary Jacobs, Precipice's founder and director.
In a workshop the next day on Sept. 26 at the RAAC Community Theatre, Jacobs will lead participants through a series of improv games to introduce the principles of improv. The 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. workshop is open to people of all skill levels.
"You don't have to be an actor to attend or even be funny," says Jacobs. "For instance, many of my students use improv techniques to get in touch with their inner writer or artist, or just have fun."
Jacobs has been teaching, producing, and directing improv for 28 years. He now teaches internationally, as well as on both the East and West Coasts. In April, he taught workshops in Auckland, New Zealand at the Covert Theater and in Christchurch, New Zealand at the Court Theater. His last eight workshops in Bethesda, Santa Barbara, Santa Monica, and Ventura, California were sold out. See more at precipiceimprov.com.
The RAAC Community Theatre is located at 310 Gay St., Washington. Tickets for Saturday's performance are $15. The workshop is $50. For the workshop, please wear comfortable clothes and bring a lunch. For reservations and more information for both the performance and workshop, call RAAC at 540-675-3193 or e-mail email@example.com.

SOLON– The City of Solon is urging local parents to educate their children on the use of the Highway 1 pedestrian crossing.
During the Citizen Speak portion of a March 18 meeting, Solon resident Pam Landgrebe expressed concern to city council members about the number of young children who disregard the pedestrian traffic signal on Highway 1 between Short and First streets.
Landgrebe, a resident of the Windmill Estates subdivision, said she frequently walks in the neighborhood where the pedestrian stoplight is located.
SOLON– It's time to make some changes.
Solon City Council members were introduced last week to the consultants who will help forge the latest version of the city's comprehensive plan.
Shawn O'Shea and Jim Holz, of MSA Professional Services, were present for the March 18 council meeting to outline the initial steps of updating the comprehensive plan.
The plan serves as a guide for future development decisions and includes demographic information as well as planning recommendations.
SOLON– Solon school board members are hoping for the best but planning for the worst.
Board members met again with the district's architectural firm and construction manager during a March 10 meeting to continue the search for alternates and possible cost savings to bring a $25.5 million bond issue project in on budget.
Preliminary cost estimates indicate the two projects to be funded by the September 2014 bond issue– the construction of a new middle school and a performing arts center addition to the high school– are trending towards the high side.
SOLON– Guess who's coming to lunch?
About 10,000 bicyclists on their way to Coralville.
The City of Solon has accepted an invitation by the Register's Annual Great Bicycle Ride Across Iowa (RAGBRAI) to participate as a pass-through town Friday, July 24.
The decision was announced at a Feb. 18 city council meeting during City Administrator Cami Rasmussen's report.
The 43rd edition of the statewide bicycle race will begin in Sioux City Saturday, July 18, and end in Davenport Saturday, July 25, spanning a route of 462.2 miles.
SOLON– City council members and the mayor could receive a 33 percent increase in their pay per meeting beginning next year.
And they could be compensated for attending not only regular city council meetings, but for other meetings as well.
The city's elected officials gave their informal approval for the raise, which will be drafted into ordinance form and considered at a future meeting.
Solon City Council members currently receive an annual $375 stipend and $30 per meeting. The mayor receives $160 per month and $30 for each special meeting attended.
SOLON– The newest member of the Solon City Council sees himself as an average Joe.
At a Wednesday, Feb. 4, meeting, council members voted to appoint Dale Snipes to the seat vacated by Ron Herdliska, who resigned the post Jan. 1.
Snipes, 57, will serve out the remaining year of Herdliska's term, but has already indicated he will seek election in November.
With the decision, the council is back to its full complement of five members.
SOLON– A proposed zoning ordinance to allow for narrower lot widths and smaller setbacks for single family residences is going nowhere anytime soon.
During their meeting on Feb. 4, Solon City Council members declined to take action on a draft ordinance which would create an R1(B) zoning district.
"I rather feel rushed in making a decision right now," council member Mark Krall said. "I'm not ready to change things, I guess."
SOLON– Projected costs for a new middle school and performing arts center currently exceed the $25.5 million target set forth in a September bond issue.
But Solon Community School District (SCSD) board members were reluctant to make amenities like a $417,000 orchestra pit an alternate to the project, and representatives of the district's construction management firm indicated it's not yet time to hit the panic button.
Board members met with staff from Struxture Architects and Story Construction Jan. 26 during a special session for a progress update on the two major building projects.
SOLON– The Solon City Council wasn't quite sure about adding a new type of residential zoning to its code of ordinances.
Council members tabled the first consideration of an ordinance which would create an R1(B) zoning district to provide for smaller lot sizes in residential developments.
The draft ordinance, presented at the Jan. 21 meeting, came as a result of a joint meeting Nov. 25 between the council, the city's Planning and Zoning (P&Z) Commission and developers of Old Mill Creek Part 3 on the very west edge of town.
SOLON– Not so fast.
The Solon Community School District's Board of Education was expected to make a decision on the start and end dates for the 2015-16 school year last Monday.
No decision was made.
Board members tabled the lone action item on the agenda for the Jan. 12 regular session, although Superintendent Sam Miller was instructed to proceed with applying to the Iowa Department of Education for a waiver to start school prior to Sept. 1.
SOLON– Just as quickly as one vacancy was filled, another opened up for the Solon City Council.
The council welcomed new member Mark Prentice, who was appointed at the Jan. 7 regular session to fill the vacancy created when council member Brad Kunkel moved outside the city limits.
At the end of the meeting, it was announced that council member Ron Herdliska had resigned effective Jan. 1.
The city accepted applications from the community to fill Kunkel's spot, and received four: from Prentice, Dale Snipes, Steve Lee and Kristina Bevans.
SOLON– The cost of law enforcement for the City of Solon will increase beginning in July.
The city knew the $2-per-hour hike was coming, and has been planning accordingly heading into budget time. In the future, the city may even look at adding to the hours of coverage provided by the Johnson County Sheriff's Office (JCSO).
Johnson County Sheriff Lonny Pulkrabek made his annual pilgrimage to Solon Jan. 7 to meet with the Solon City Council about the city's contract for law enforcement services.

lol trust me this vegas team is defying logic the biggest frauds yet somehow they just keep winning
fluery has carried this team hes played outta this world all year.. its a bad look for nhl when a brand new team goes all the way imo maybe im just being a hater at this point
They were down to there 5th string goalie at one point and still winning. He didnt carry them all season .. No doubt hes keeping them in games now, but the team still has to score. There offense is effective, the team is solid all the way around
Whoever wins tonight will face a rested Vegas team
When and where is that game?
If its Friday, in LV...
the fact that you cant predict it is why no other sport comes close. there is nothing like the nhl playofffs and nothing like a game 7
I went to a knights game back in January and that place is rocking . The whole venue outside and in what a blast. Kind of a shame sports gambling not only going to stay in Vegas one hell of a destination. Can't wait to go again amazing fans good for them hope they win either way well deserved I put some money on caps tonight hope Ovechkin doesn't get screwed out of the White Russian hold the ice and no cup go caps
Looking forward to Stanley cup going to be exciting series could go 7 grease lightning vs Charlestown chiefs
Well I had Washington last night but didn't post it since I was not hitting them very well. Liked the hot goalie & defense and veteran scorers, bigger team, had significantly more hits and more shots on goal the whole series.
3-0 seems like a blowout but a few pivotal plays were the difference, how did he not score that wide open opportunity and those turnover fast breaks changed everything... great D and goaltending by Washington, though.
How many shots off the goalposts for both teams? Insanity.
Washington will get some rest since the game is not until Monday, I was going to jump all over Vegas 1st game if it was Friday or even Saturday. Now Vegas is -140 first game.
Need to see how the West and the East fared against each other, SOS, matchups, I do not think fatigue will be a factor 1st game but might help Vegas by the 4th game if they play every other day.
I don't buy the theory of the shooting having any effect.
Did these players have their lives entrenched in the community of a first year team? No.
Is the team full of Vegas natives? No.
Its just a coincidence. They are simply a well built team with many guys having career years.
Game 1 the cup going with over 5.5 laying 400 win 460. I am rooting for Ovechkin however my islanders not there so just want to be entertained. Think this series could go 7
West vs East? LV or Washington, who played the tougher playoff competition?
Washington should be refreshed for this game but LV should be stronger especially as the series progresses.
LV goalie the best but Capital's is hot. LV offense underrated IMO.
Capitals streaing but I lean to LV, goaltending, huge home game, fresher, decent offense.
Well done Serbone off to a good start
Game 2 the cup capitals +135 lay 200
Gotta go with Capitals this game + 140
Epic close game 1, 4 lead changes, LV 4th line scored often not gonna happen again I think.
Caps O should step up Vegas is for real but Caps beat some damn good teams.
Game 3 the cup tomorrow knights +117 and over 5.5 +105. Laying 200 on each and parlayed for 50
If Kuznetsov plays and they say he's 100% tomorrow, looks like Capitals game 3 for me. TBD. Waiting.
I will go medium/small on The Capitals -130, still have a top O (like there power play puck movement, it is superior), a hot goalie, a solid veteran team, Fluerry is possibly finally faltering a bit... and Capitals have a crazy crowd with all that pent up frustration, first FINAL in eons.
Leaning to the Caps again, sure LV will be desperate but at this stage of the playoffs both teams are giving absolutely everything they have... Caps want that Cup!
It appears at this point as though the Caps are better in most categories, they seemed to control the last game and the score was not indicative of their dominance.
Finalizing later but will probably go with Caps ML for a medium type play.

"I feel like some of my baby fat is going away, and that's not just physically, it's psychologically. I think that your body is in tune with your mind and your spirituality and your heart. If things are going better, I just think you look better." ~Drew Barrymore
No, this is not a post about diet and exercise! Diet and exercise had nothing to do with it.
So around March of 2013 I started to notice some weight creeping back on. I didn't freak out about it at first but over time it just kept coming and coming. Within a year, I had gained practically all the weight I had lost when I first went Paleo in 2011. It was so frustrating to see the weight creep back on. I had no control over it. Nothing I did had any impact. My diet hadn't changed. I was still very paleo and worked out regularly. I even got super strict with my diet but that didn't work. Nothing worked. I felt completely helpless and out of control. It was depressing.
I am happy to say that I am currently back into my XL shirts. (It was very depressing to have to go back up to XXL, by the way) I am almost back down to my pre March 2013 weight and the same goes for my waistline. I am getting both, compliments and "you are too skinny" complaints. I feel great and have more energy for training and, most of all, I feel better about myself which is reflecting in every aspect of my life.
So what did I do? I got rid of stress. That's it! And just like that, the weight came off, effortlessly!
Below are the five things I started doing to relieve stress:
1) Mineral Salt Baths
As a big tough guy, it's kind of taboo to have a soak in the tub. Recently, I was in on a conversation about how a guy was less of a man because he admitted to taking a bath. All the guys listening laughed but I kinda just kept my mouth shut thinking to myself, I love my baths. Soaking in the tub is very relaxing for me. Just the simple fact that I am taking time alone for myself is restorative, not to mention the benefits my body gets from absorbing the minerals in the epsom salts.
I usually soak in the tub once a week but my goal is at least twice.
2) Hot Yoga
This is something I did admit to and got a rash of shit for. I don't care though, it is doing wonders for my body. I actually used to practice years ago and loved it. So much so, that I actually got my teacher cert.
When I move to the city and saw the there was a hot yoga studio just minutes from my apartment, I knew it was time to start practicing again.
What I get out of one hot yoga class:
- two hours without my phone
- mobility training
- breathing exercises
- relaxation
- 90 minutes of sweating my ass off (purging toxins)
- the occasional peek in the mirror at how ripped I'm getting
3) Stopped Doing Work I Hated
Truth is, I was let go. I was a real estate agent and really hated it. So much so, that when I became debt free a year ago, I felt I had no real reason to continue working so hard in the field I hated. This caused me to do very little, if any work, and as a result my broker let me go. I don't blame him really. My lack of enthusiasm for the business caused me to actually be a bad real estate agent.
Although I was a little upset to lose my residual monthly commission, the fact that my heart rate doesn't jump up when my phone rings is well worth it.
4) Ate What I Wanted
This is a biggie! Once or twice a week, I let myself eat whatever I want, guilt free. It's awesome. This started when I went to Mexico in July and had practically no choice but to eat some non paleo foods. It was then that I realized I could eat foods I really loved and not die or worse, gain weight.
To tell the truth, my trip in July confirmed a theory I had before I even made the trip. In the height of my recent weight gain I weighed more than I did when I lived in Mexico in 2010. I hadn't even heard of paleo at the time. I ate what ever I wanted and drank beer everyday and didn't put on a pound the entire 5 months I was there. What was the difference between the 2014 paleo Dave and the 2010 pre paleo Dave? I was completely in love with my life. I was stress free and didn't have to worry about a thing and loved every minute of it.
Allowing myself to indulge here and there is causing me less stress. I used to be like, "better not eat that, fatty" and would stress out about it. If I did give in, I would stress out even more! Now, I'm like, "treat yo self" and it make me a much happier person.
5) Ended a Bad Relationship
Right off the bat, (is that the right saying?) let me say that the woman I was in the relationship with is a wonderful, beautiful, amazing and sexy person. I mean, I am eating a slice of pumpkin pie that she made for me as she proofreads this post. I have nothing negative to say about her. We just weren't a match, that's all.
The problem was, even though we weren't a match, we kept trying to make it work. When I explain it to people I use the square peg – round hole analogy. We were trying to force something that didn't fit! Forcing it and forcing it creating so much stress and that stress compounded our unhappiness.
The moment we made the decision to end it, I immediately felt a sense of calm and relief.

Great Cheaper Alternative than FTD/Teleflora POS
Likely Extremely
Pros: Its cloud based so I can use it at home as long as I have a working browser and login. There are no contracts. I am able to map out delivery routes and still print on floral paper from Teleflora. I can open up multiple browsers to do multiples at once. I can easily pull reports and see how I did during the day and it calculates taxable and non taxable items at the end of each month. It has Stripe Integration which I believe is safer than other payment processors.
Good news is that I have always been able to reach out to IT Support and have requested changes and they do listen and work on them. Some things that I have asked for they have fixed or implemented.
Cons: There are still a few UI issues that don't always make sense. I am not able to send out invoices (only email receipts). I cannot perform multiple delivery orders in one transaction. Sometimes the server is slow and transaction take a while or sometimes the server is down or something and I can't access the POS. Its not the end of the world but you can tell they are still working on the software.
Overall: Saves a lot of time for end of month accounting and multiple channels to be able to access the POS.
If they would just fix a few thibgs
Likely Extremely
Pros: Pretty user friendly- easy order entry. The proposals feature is awesome. I love that it's cloud based so I can access anywhere. The super ticket printing is also awesome. It also connected easily with my wix website which was really important to me.
Cons: does not integrate with quickbooks even though it says it does. I have paid a quickbooks certified bookkeeper over $4000 over the last year and a half to get this working and it just doesn't. Also, you can not send a house account customer a statement - well you can if you want them to call you completely confused and you want to look totally unprofessional. I literally have to create a month end statement in another software and send it to my customer. Good thing I don't have a ton of house accounts. There are a few other issues but I think you guys get the idea.
Overall: This product could be the absolute best if they could just work on these few issues. These very basic, core tasks are fundamental to running a successful business and without them it negates the other positives about the software.
Floranext's florist POS and florist website - The best there is!
Likely Extremely
Pros: Floranext POS is easy and user-friendly. Taking an order in the POS is a breeze. The websites are so wonderful, I am able to customize and design my own website, unlike my previous wire service website. I am able to add my own images of products and set my own prices with just a few clicks. My sales have soared because of Floranext, no hidden or extra charges, just one monthly fee.
Cons: There are no cons to the Floranext florist POS and florist website. Floranext understands the floral industry and florists.
Overall: After years of being with a wire service company, I made the change to Floranext. All I can say is that I should have made the switch earlier. Floranext's florist POS and florist website are made with florists in mind. They truly care about florists and making sure my business flourishes.
Recommendations to other buyers: If you are a new florist or been in the industry for years, Floranext's florist POS and florist website is a must have to run a successful flower shop.

For a floral oriented point of sale, FloraNext is a winner
Likely Extremely
Pros: Easy to set up, great customer support, works on multiple platforms. Makes routing deliveries much easier!
Cons: The reports leave a lot to be desired. They are only minimally customizable and don't necessarily focus on the things I want reported.
Pos and website built for florists
Likely Extremely
Pros: That everything works well together and I didn't need any added services to run a more profitable and easier floral business
Not much it's pretty user friendly. I would say it took awhile to get up and running but... it was fine like I wanted it to so it was worth the wait. Kailee was wonderful along with Ida and the rest of the crew.
Overall: So far it's been BLISSFUL.
Horrible Company
Comments: I have had nothing but problems with this company since I started with them. First, the system crashed on Valentines week, then the software was charging out of area fees on local postal codes, or not at all, now over a year with this company and they have no invoice history of why I am getting billed for what and what the charges are. The owner of the company "might" be in at some point to help but you never know. So now when I go to do my taxes for the past year I have no idea what I am being charged for, which by the way changes all the time. The customer service people have NO idea what is going on and usually can't help. After Christmas, this will be it for me. NOT another broken Valentines here. Do NOT Recommend at all! NOT for Canadian clients.
Vendor Response
by Floranext on January 01, 2017
Vanessa - we apologize for any issues you may have had with billing as a Canadian shop. My understanding is that the issue was we were billing you in USD and the price fluctuated based on the exchange rate. We have resolved this issue and apologize for any inconvenience it may have caused.
As an owner of a flower shop for 40 years, we pride ourselves on great customer service and an great florist point of sale, website, and software system. We apologize if we did not meet this high standard in this case.

Simple and straight forward florist system
Comments: One thing that always drove me crazy with my other system was needing to ask their permission to change the look of my website! Floranext eliminates that hurdle altogether. I like that I get to be in complete control of my website and that it doesn't take long to figure out for yourself.
Likewise, the point of sale (I got web and POS package) is fairly intuitive. They'll help you figure it out early on, and it's been smooth s ailling since. I have absolutely recommended Floranext to other Illinois Florists.

Love this program!
Comments: I recently bought Paper Flowers Boutique from another owner that was using Floranext as her florist POS system. At first I was going to try to look for other floral POS options but as soon as I started using this program, I was hooked! Even for a "newbie" like me, it was quick and easy to pick-up. Most of it is a matter of simply "filling in the blank". It is quick and functional and overall aesthetically pleasing. There may be other flowershop POS software out there with similar functionalities but I am 100% satisfied with this system and will be using it for a long time to come.
We recommend Floranext to every Florist!
Comments: "We recommend Floranext to every Florist, we love ours, their websites are very easy to setup, no down time when changing over, and there is no sales pressure. Our Floranext website has generated many orders for us in the time that we have switched over from a major wire service and is completely customizable. Please give them a try."

LIMPOPO Premier Chupu Mathabatha says his government is prepared to train, educate and cultivate a supportive environment to enable youth development. He was addressing the 42nd anniversary of the Youth Day Commemoration at the old Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane yesterday under the theme "Leaving the Legacy Towards a socio-economic empowered youth.
June 16 commemorates, annually, the 1976 student uprising by South Africans. It pays tribute to hundreds of youths who were brutally killed by the apartheid government over their objections against the imposition of Afrikaans as a medium of instruction in township schools.
The aftermath of the events of June 16, 1976 had dire consequences for the Apartheid government. Images of the police firing on peacefully demonstrating students led an international revulsion against South Africa as its brutality was exposed.
In his key note address, Mathabatha commenced the Youth Day Celebrations by putting emphasis on education for the youth and quoted Nelson Mandela's letter to his son, Makgatho Mandela encouraging him to respect education.
"As this ANC government we remain prepared to cultivate a supportive environment for you as young people to be educated, trained, and to be equipped with necessary skills for your own development.
"It is for this reason that as the government of Limpopo we have adopted the first-ever comprehensive Youth Development Strategy. As you would know, the adoption of this Strategy followed a province wide consultation process," said Mathabatha.
He said that the Strategy focuses on areas such as youth participation in the economy and job market, youth education and skills development, youth health, and the project of nation-building and social cohesion.
The commemorations saw artists such as Winnie Mashaba entertain the young audience that was in attendance.
Meanwhile in Gauteng President Cyril Ramaphosa led the country's official Youth Day celebrations in Soweto.
The president addressed cheering supporters gathered at the Orlando Stadium fittingly to commemorate the June 16 uprisings.
Ramaphosa, accompanied by Ministers Nkosazana Dlamini Zuma and Nathi Mthethwa as well as Gauteng Premier David Makhura, placed a wreath at the grave sight of Hector Peterson, the schoolboy who was killed on this day in 1976.
Residents in Soweto braved the cold weather earlier in the morning to join Ramaphosa on a Youth Day walk.
"South Africa should use Youth Day and Youth Month to give special attention to the challenges facing young people and also to unlock opportunities for young people to determine their destiny in honour of the youth of 1976," Ramaphosa said in a statement.

Senior Sports Reporter
LONDON, England — They took one more trip out in front of the cheering crowd at the Olympic Stadium. This time, on Saturday night, the Bahamas men's 4 x 400 metre relay team members proudly came out to collect their gold medals after upsetting the United States in one of the biggest showdowns in track and field over the years.
Champions of the 2012 Olympic Games, Chris 'Fireman' Brown, Demetrius Pinder, Michael Mathieu and Ramon 'Fearless' Miller combined to secure the only medal for the Bahamas and got the national flag to be raised while the national anthem was played during the medal presentation with the US and bronze medallist Trinidad & Tobago standing at attention and applauding them for their efforts.
The quartet hung the heavy hardware around their necks after the brief ceremony before they were escorted back to the Games Village.
"It's sweet. Who wouldn't feel sweet with a gold medal," said Miller, who stormed from behind in the final 100 metres on the anchor leg to pass and leave American Angelo Taylor behind. "We worked hard all year and this is the outcome of it. I want to thank God and hopefully more will come."
For Pinder, it was a bittersweet moment for him to reflect on.
"Just putting the medal around my neck, all I could do is remember my sister," said Pinder, who ran an exceptional second leg to give the Bahamas a sizable lead. "It's a blessing to come out here and get gold, so I'm very proud."
Pinder's sister, Claudia, passed away and was buried while he was in London preparing to run both the 400 and the 4 x 4 relay. He got into the 400 final with Brown, but finished seventh. But he said the victory in the relay more than made up for his disappointment and grief that he felt all during his stay in the Games Village.
Having had the most difficult leg to run on third with the huge challenge from American Tony McQuay, Mathieu said he's speechless.
"We won the gold. It was sweet," he said. "I'm really glad that we did it."
Brown, the senior man on the team, said he gave it all to God because it was his strength that enabled him to help the Bahamas to win a bronze and silver, but now the country can be proud of the boys because they have struck big with the gold.
"It's history. It feels good and I just want to thank the Lord," he said. "It's amazing. It's been a long journey and dreams do come true. I've been at it for a while and a lot of people would have given up by now, but it just shows that with patience and faith, anything is possible. I think the Bahamian fans, but we had to do this one for Leevan, who would have definitely won a medal if he didn't get hurt and to Demetrius for what he had to go through with the loss of his sister."
Brown said they represented the country very well but want their status to be changed from the "Silver Knights" to "Golden Boys" or anything that goes with gold.
Their performance left the Bahamas tied for 50th with Algeria, Grenada and Venezuela out of a field of about 202 countries that participated
in the biggest sporting event on the planet. Now they are scheduled to return home today when they are expected to be treated to a "welcome home" reception 6pm tonight at the Lynden Pindling International Airport.

Deed of sale: Witnesses need to give their full details now too
The role of a witness is to be able to attest to the authenticity of a signature. A witness does not need to be familiar with the content of the document which they are witnessing, but must be able to identify and confirm the authenticity of a party's signature in the case of a dispute.
In ABSA's recent "Minimum Supporting Documentation" communication, the bank requires that a witness on a deed of sale provide their full names and surname, their identity number and attach their full signature on the document.
All deeds of sale must contain the full details of the witnesses as of 1 May 2017. Estate agents must ensure that the full details of all witnesses and other relevant parties are included in the deed of sale before sending it on to the bond originator to prevent future delays in the purchaser's application for bond finance.

Medical researchers define the relationship between diabetes and depression as "bi-directional," which is science-speak for "vicious cycle."
A recent study, published in the Archives of Internal Medicine, found that women who had diabetes were nearly 30 percent more likely to have depression, and those who took insulin were more than 50 percent more likely to be depressed.
Living with any chronic illness can be demoralizing and stressful, but the particular challenges of diabetes—the daily monitoring and required changes in lifestyle, along with the guilt and shame some patients feel—make people with the disease especially vulnerable to depression, whose hallmarks include persistent low mood, lethargy, inability to concentrate, feelings of worthlessness and sometimes even suicidal thoughts.
Obesity, inactivity and poor eating habits are risk factors for both diabetes and depression and contribute to their tendency to overlap. Plus, if you're depressed and low on energy, you may neglect to take your medications properly or forget to test your blood glucose regularly, which can take a serious toll on your health. "It's a two-way street with depression and diabetes. They are highly interwoven," says Hillary Bogner, M.D., assistant professor of family medicine and community health at the University of Pennsylvania. "Fortunately, simply being aware of the connection between them allows you to take actions to stave off depression."
Master the Three Crisis Points for Diabetes and Depression
Depression is most likely to hit at one of the three classic crisis points during the course of diabetes. The first occurs when you're diagnosed. Maybe you've had symptoms and suspicions about your health, but the confirmation that you've got a chronic, potentially debilitating illness can send you reeling. "In addition to the shock that comes with any serious diagnosis, you've got to incorporate all kinds of new behaviors into your life," says Sherita Golden, M.D., an endocrinologist at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore. "You have to prick your fingers, think about what you eat and when, keep on top of your blood sugar and possibly give yourself insulin injections." The intrusiveness of all of that can make you feel overwhelmed, resentful and paralyzed.
Another predictable crisis point is when you experience periods of metabolic instability or changes in your medication regimen. Especially if you've been doing everything you can to stay healthy, these shifts can make you feel out of control and guilty. Finally, depression can take hold if you develop a complication, such as neuropathy or retinopathy.
The best way to maintain emotional equilibrium at each point is to be proactive, says John Zrebiec, LICSW, director of behavioral health at the Joslin Diabetes Center in Boston. "Learn as much as possible about diabetes and the natural progression of the disease, set realistic goals for yourself and seek support from your family, friends and health-care providers."
Defeat Your Enemies: Shame and Blame
More than other chronic conditions, diabetes tends to create feelings of blame, shame, guilt and low self-worth, all of which are often tied to how well you're managing the physical manifestations of the disease. "People with diabetes sometimes interpret their blood-glucose readings as a measure of their moral integrity," says Zrebiec, who suggests instead thinking of these readings as a compass to help you find direction rather than a pass/fail test that can result in bad feelings.
The fact is, no one thing causes depression; it's a complicated illness with emotional as well as physical components. What's critical for patients with diabetes is to realize that being depressed is not a sign of personal weakness. Imbalances in brain chemicals known as neurotransmitters—specifically serotonin, dopamine and norepinephrine—are known contributors, for example, but it's still hard to avoid thinking you could just "snap out of it" if you tried hard enough.
"You need to think of depression as just one of the many side effects of diabetes, like having protein in your urine, for example," says Golden. "And, as with other side effects, there are effective treatments."
Use the Right Tools
Ideally, your physician screens you regularly for depression symptoms, but not all doctors do this as a matter of course. While being depressed can make it difficult to take action, the sooner you talk to your doctor, the sooner you will get relief.
Psychotherapy, which can focus on thoughts, feelings, interpersonal relationships, day-to-day problems or issues from the past, is a mainstay of treatment, along with antidepressant medications, though a combination of both is currently considered most effective.
A well-trained therapist can help you look at the problems that bring on depression and help you find ways to relieve them, over the short term and the long term. Support groups can help you feel less alone and also allow you to learn which coping tools work for other people and might be right for you. Your doctor may already work with mental-health professionals on a diabetes treatment team to whom he can refer you; your local American Diabetes Association is another good resource.
Exercising for at least 30 minutes a day has also been proven to boost mood. While getting out of bed can feel like a monumental task if you're depressed, daily exercise will seem less daunting if you choose an activity that you truly enjoy, or once did. Take it slowly at first—even walking around the block is progress if you've been sedentary—and consider enlisting a friend or joining a walking group to stay accountable.
Bogner and her team encourage patients to socialize with friends and family and engage in activities that they used to find pleasurable. "Even though it can be hard to do these things when you're depressed," she says, "sometimes emotions respond when behaviors are changed first."

Objective To investigate differential atrophy patterns based on the presence of cortical superficial siderosis (cSS) and the role of cSS in predicting amyloid positivity in memory clinic patients fulfilling the diagnostic criteria for probable cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA).
Methods We retrospectively collected data from 44 cognitively impaired patients with probable CAA who underwent 3-dimensional, T1-weighted MRIs (cSS+, n = 27; cSS−, n = 17). Amyloid-positive patients with Alzheimer disease (AD) (n = 56) and amyloid-negative cognitively normal participants (n = 34) were recruited as controls. Among the patients with CAA who underwent amyloid-PET scans (75.0%), we investigated whether amyloid-negative cases were unevenly distributed based on cSS presentation. APOE genotypes, Mini-Mental State Examination scores, and cortical atrophy pattern along with hippocampal volume were compared across groups.
Results Ten patients with probable CAA presented amyloid negativity and all of them belonged to the cSS− group (58.8%). Compared to the cSS− group, the cSS+ group presented higher APOE ε4 frequency, worse memory dysfunction, and lower hippocampal volume. Compared with cognitively normal participants, the cSS+ group exhibited atrophy in the precuneus, posterior cingulate, parietotemporal, superior frontal, and medial temporal areas, a pattern similar to AD-specific atrophy. The cSS− group exhibited atrophy in the parietotemporal, superior frontal, and precentral regions.
Conclusion Our findings imply that the current version of the Boston criteria may not be sufficient enough to remove non-CAA cases from a cognitively impaired population, especially in the absence of cSS. Patients with probable CAA presenting cSS appear to reflect a CAA phenotype that shares pathologic hallmarks with AD, providing insight into the CAA-to-AD continuum.
