Success in investing doesn't correlate with I.Q. once you're above the level of 25. Once you have ordinary intelligence, what you need is the temperament to control the urges that get other people into trouble in investing.

If he had not been traumatized by this loss, Sir Isaac might well have gone on to discover the Fourth Law of Motion: For investors as a whole, returns decrease as motion increases.warren buffett

But maybe in a way I did need it so that I can decide once and for all that I'm not going to let people who try to stress me out stress me out. It's almost like they see your peace and they want to destroy it, but we have the choice to let them destroy it or not. It was an attack that hit me by surprise in many of my most vulnerable and soft spots, but if I really trust God, and I do, I'll ask Him how to handle it, handle it the way He says, and then go about my business. But that is sometimes easier said than done, and now I definitely understand why being angry can be a sinful thing – if we lose our temper that can mess things up worse, and if we don't lose our temper, it eats us up inside and keeps us from the rest we need to do our work for God with a joyful heart.I had been asking the Lord to help me with the anger – to help me not wish harm to the person who has been trying to do harm to me. She hasn't really harmed me, but she's been trying, and even though I see God's faithfulness over and over again and He keeps showing me that I can be still and know that He is God, I still have a problem with the anger. It's hard to bless someone who's out to get you every day in every way that they can, and it's hard to bless someone who is trying to oppress you. But that's what the Lord wants us to do, so I had to ask Him for help.
He kept telling me to just get some rest on Friday night and trust Him, which I didn't do, but when I finally arrived at the church on Saturday morning, the health fair was so nice! It was in the area where I first lived when I was born again – there are no coincidences with God – and so I was reminded of His faithfulness at that time and over the years, over and over again. That place is one of my altars, a place where I stopped to rest for three very strange months when I was newly aware of this God who was talking to me every day and helping me to get on a new path. So on my roundabout way to the church, He had already started talking to me, and then at the church when one of the speakers started talking, he said a word that started speaking even more to my heart. He talked about four balls that we can carry with us: our work, which is a rubber ball and if we drop it, it can bounce, another ball that is our family and another that is our health and another that is our integrity, and that those are glass balls and if one of them should drop, it would easily break and might even shatter and not be able to be repaired. The person who has been making me crazy always talks about their integrity, and one of the things that had been making me so angry is that what I see is the absolute opposite of integrity, and it's making me angry to have someone be so self-righteous, when they're not really acting righteous at all. But she is the one who has dropped that glass ball and shattered it, and I don't have to get cut on the shards of glass or let my own glass ball drop.Another speaker started talking about dementia and Alzheimer's, and there were some things that really started opening my heart up, the place where my compassion and forgiveness are. I started to understand that the person who is treating me so badly may be suffering from early onset dementia, and that the erratic behavior and actions she is displaying against me are something that, whatever the cause, are a disease of the brain. I felt like I was let off the hook somehow – I don't know how to explain it except to say that I really don't have to take it personally any more. It's still a rotten situation, but as with everything else, there will be an end to it sometime. After that presentation, I spoke with the woman who had given it about the situation I was dealing with and she said that the signs are there. She said that unfortunately it will most probably get really bad, that this person will eventually "reveal themselves," that right now they are trying to pretend that what they are doing is fine and that they are fine, but it's really not and they know on some level that something has gone wrong in their mind.
When I started to think about that, the compassion came immediately. What must it feel like to think that everyone around you is out to get you or that you have to attack people to be in control? What must it be to live inside this woman's head – it's so scary to think about that I knew I had to start to pray for her. I'd been praying all along, but my prayers had been mixed with the anger. Now I could just pray.When God tells us not to do something, He is doing it for our own good. When He says to not let the sun go down on your anger, it's because He knows that you won't get a good night's sleep. When He tells you to bless those who curse you, He's letting us know we can release the anger and everything and anything else we want to, and that we can give it right to Him. When we release the anger we can rest easy, we can be still and rest in Him, and watch and wait and let Him guide us on the path that He knows is best for us.

Hello to you all who are interested in high quality video playback on Linux! There is one very interesting project in development that allows perfect redraw synchronization when using AMD and Intel graphics hardware. I'm postin here to draw more attention to the project _and_ to make sure AMD hardware is not left behind. Main developer seems to work on Intel at the moment. Technical details follow.
Many of you probably know what causes tearing and unsmooth video playback, but I'm going to explain a bit anyway. The very problem is different screen refresh and video frame/field frequency and the problem that frame rate resampling is anything but simple or perfect. Current solutions are just to ignore it (by dropping or doubling frames) or do the resampling (NVidia Purevideo). The resampling works well if the source is already motion compressed, so motion vectors can be used for constructing frames at arbitrary times. For really high fidelity stuff the workload is very high as motion serach has to be done, just like mpeg compression, but in realtime. Even still, the quality suffers. More processing -> more errors.
Almost all of the above is unnecessary if screen and frame rates are the same. Television does just that. On PC hardware things get a bit tricky as apparently, is wasn't designed with such usage in mind. The project FRC or Frame Rate Control does those tricks purely in software and that makes it qute special. I've been trying to get some attention to the problem before and it may be of value to read a bit there too:
FRC, the _important_ part:
For testing the concepts I suggest a clip of _interlaced_ DV-video with plenty of motion and camera stutter or dvb grab of animated news tickers. Before heading to the FRC it is good idea to play a bit with "cvt" and "xrandr" commands to get proper display modes. You'll need 50 Hz capable monitor for European dvb or digitized PAL. Also cvt rounds framerates somewhat weirdly, but specifying a bit more will get you closer. Like "cvt 1600 1200 50.05" will get 50.01 Hz out. The error would result field jitter every 50/(50.01-50)=5000 fields so once per 100 seconds. Normally that close tolerance is not achievable bacause of the cheap clock crystals and no adjustment. Kaffeine has good controls for deinterlacing, so make sure you are using _one_ frame deinterlacers like linear blend. Otherwise motion is blurred away.
Last but not least I hope to see some developer comments here as this is definitely something to include to VA-API or some other video processing api specification. I remember Brigdman saying something like "frame locking is difficult to get working reliably" somewhere on phronix forums.
Have fun!
No announcement yet.
FRC, the ultimate tearfree video solution

Some suggestions:
- The code need to be made multi-head aware. The current patch assumes crtc 0.
- The current code only support pre-avivo chips (r1xx-r4xx). The code either needs to check and bail properly on newer chips, or support needs to be added for newer asics
- Drm version bump and checks for new ioctl
- Handle different monitor types properly. Digital monitors tend to be very picky about the mode timing. As such you'd need to be careful about adjusting the timing.
Another thing to consider is that modesetting is moving to the kernel in newer drms, so you may want to consider implementing this in the drm rather than in the ddx.

Originally posted by FunkyRider View PostI think the way to deal with it without compromising other windowed applications is to do a temporal re-sampling. We do spatial re-sampling all the time, why not do temporal as well? GPU should be able to handle it with ease. This we we re-sample the movie to screen refresh rate and show each new frame in each refresh.
Also, when properly implemented, it's just one configuration option in ones media player. Add some intelligence and FRC is enabled only when content frame or field rate is above half the refresh rate. Like everything in FLOSS, FRC is an _option_, not 'one size fits all' system. Usually those options do their designed work next to perfect (given time to iron out bugs).
CrystalCowboy, you don't have to use 7.5 Hz refresh Just pick 8*7.5=60 (Hz) and run that synchronously... I doubt it is worth it though as eight times 'oversampling' will result in very small jitter and no strong subharmonics.
The following points to a diagram about frame rate resampling:
If one really _really_ wants to understand and picture it all, Octave or Matlab model of square wave sampling will be needed. FFT analysis will show temporal spectrum components nicely. You more mathematically inclined will probably figure everything on paper and in brain too, but I'm not one of those
Any driver or hardware developers lurking here anymore? What do you think about the patches and what has to be done to get them included in the official driver tree?

I admit I cannot see how a 60fps-locked game can look better on a 60fps refresh rate than on a 120fps (speaking about CRTs, obviously.)
The stream was interlaced at first, but I de-interlaced and made a 50fps YUV stream, which I could frame step and see it was OK. Using yuv also relieved CPU for the high fps testing (though it's big so you need to have plenty of ram and run it a couple of timed to get it disk cached).
I tried different OSes, a different PC+monitor, different players sw/hw, different games and the results were always the same. The game results were forcing 30 on 60hZ and you have to be trying to see the difference - face a wall with vertical detail and sidestep left/right quickly while eye tracking the detail - 30fps on 60Hz = blurred, slight doubled or maybe tripled detail, at 60fps looks perfect.

@Kano: very interesting monitor, thanks! 3ms GTG is still on the high side (compared to CRTs, which are closer to 0.x ms), but it could actually be usable for stereo - as long as no color transition passes the ~8ms mark. I'll search for reviews.

Edit: personally, I think that motion interpolation techniques cause more harm than good on video. Film is shot on specific framerates (typically 24p) and any frame interpolation technique will invariably increase the error rate. Interpolation *can* look good (e.g. slow camera panning), but will introduce visible artifacts on any quick transition.
Edit 2: Xillen processors are pretty good, judging from high-end Samsung TVs, but they cannot work magic.

Originally posted by BlackStar View PostDouble-scanned output (100Hz) should be identical to 50Hz, only with less perceptible flickering. It's simple signal theory - CRT TVs have done this for years.
If 100Hz actually looks worse than 50Hz, it might be one of the following issues:
1. 100Hz driving the monitor to the absolute limit, resulting in degraded output (blur, geometric imperfections).
I could play the test @100fps and it was OK, play at 50fps with 50Hz = OK, 25fps with 50Hz - not OK. In fact I messed about with many refresh/fps combos and it never looked right until fps was with in about 10% of refresh.
2. The driving signal is not an exact multiple of 50Hz, resulting in judder (e.g. the monitor might be synced to 99.8Hz or 100.1Hz instead of 100Hz). This really is horrible, but can be usually fixed through custom timings.
3. Reduced flickering allows the eye to perceive imperfections in the video signal that would be otherwise hidden.
Maybe I need an AMD xilleon to interpolate the intermediate frames, I guess they do that for a reason...
Leave a comment:
Also when you think a bit longer you could use 72 hz for pal too, when you play the movies with 24 instead of 25 fps. They have been accellerated only match PAL, but bascially they are 24 with 4% speedup.

School Information
Aspiring pediatricians need to earn a bachelor's degree and a Doctor of Medicine before enrolling in a pediatrics-specific residency or fellowship program. These programs are available at top medical schools. Residency and fellowship programs in pediatrics can be found at universities nationwide, including Stanford University, the University of Washington in Seattle, the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill, and Baylor College of Medicine. The schools we'll review have medical programs that received recognition by U.S. News and World Report in 2017.
Stanford University
Stanford Medicine's Department of Pediatrics residency training program thrives on its diverse multicultural community. The school ranked #2 among the best medical schools for research, according to the U.S. News and World Report in 2017. Stanford's School of Medicine is home to several degree programs, including a Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) program in biomedical science. Students can also find master's degree programs in biomedical informatics and epidemiology, among other areas. Through the university's pediatric residency programs, students participate in general, intensive, or neonatal pediatric care rotations at children's hospitals, medical centers, and community clinics. A combined residency in pediatrics and anesthesiology is also available.
University of Washington
The University of Washington's medical school has 90 resident and 60 fellowship positions in pediatrics. U.S. News and World Report ranked the University of Washington (UW) the number one medical school for primary care in 2017. U.S. News and World Report also placed the medical school's pediatrics research program at #5 in 2017. The University of Washington's fellowship program includes over 20 pediatric specialties that provide training in areas such as endocrinology, infectious diseases, or rheumatology. Residents can also train in adolescent, neonatal, or perinatal medicine.
University of North Carolina
The University of North Carolina's pediatrics department offers 11 specialty divisions. In 2017, U.S. News & World Report ranked the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill as the number two medical school in the country for primary care instruction. The School of Medicine at the nation's first public university offers allied health and master's degree programs, as well as those leading to an M.D. or a Ph.D. Through the Department of Pediatrics, students will find pediatric clerkships and accredited residency programs for pediatric specialties. Pediatric fellowships are also available for professionals pursuing post-residency training.
Baylor College of Medicine
Baylor College of Medicine is home to the Baylor International Pediatric AIDS Initiative. The school offers general pediatric residency programs as well as more than a dozen specialized residency and fellowship options, including pediatric nephrology, pediatric endocrinology, and pediatric sports medicine. While most of the programs are offered at Baylor's main campus in Houston, a few are available at the Children's Hospital of San Antonio. For 2017, Baylor College of Medicine tied for #7 among the best medical schools for pediatrics per U.S. News and World Report.

It ought to be considerate, even supposing it's a complaint letter. Letters might be filtered through many individuals before they get to the individual concerned. Always be sure the letter you will create is clear and comprehensive. Letters which are for families and friends are deemed informal letter. In the event that you're planning to send an informal correspondence for your pals or close dear ones, then you always have the choice to seek the support of the friendly letter templates here.
When you think about a letter, then you immediately look at the arrangement. The Cover letter really shouldn't be in excess of a single page and addressed to a specific person and name. Your cover letter may be completely effective if you are going to state your desire to be thought about for your planned job position on the very first region of the letter. You should create a brand-new cover letter for every single job that you use to get, but in the event you have to do elect to utilize a pay letter to come across several of tasks, make sure you be sure to alter the current date to the date.
There is no strict arrangement to write an informal letter. The cover letter format is only 1 aspect. Observe that the following business letter format is set out so it's not tricky to read. Used in our everyday lives, an official business letter format has become really vital to companies in specific. For instance, John Doe Manager When composing a formal letter for organization, program letter for job, bank software, and other proper letters, it's essential that it must adhere to a suitable format. There's no typical worldwide-accepted format published by means of a government agency. There is a typical format which all official letters have no matter the subject matter.
Letters are among the earliest modes of communication employed by humankind. A company letter is a main kind of communicating in the market world. Considering all business letters aren't formal, an official company correspondence is written for a formal purpose only. Overall block design business letters have a formal appearance, however they might be used in informal small business situations together with formal ones.
Cover letters will help convince your prospective employer that you're the perfect match for the position they would love to offer to an experienced candidate. Informal letters may possibly be handwritten. On the flip side, casual letters are sent with the objective of communicating or imparting an info that is personal. In the event you're writing an informal letter, you're going to have to remember the approved format.

OEM Process at Advanced Diamond Technologies
At Advanced Diamond Technologies we are well aware that each water problem is a unique problem. We are dedicated to understand in detail the customer's requirements in order to provide the best possible solution.
During the first phase of project evaluation, an preliminary exchange of non-confidential information between the customer and ADT will allow the definition of the problem. Usually, at that point, a mutual non-disclosure agreement is set in place so to proceed into the evaluation to a greater extent. In the phase of the feasibility studies, the final applications and specifications are set and a technical evaluation is often performed with a bench scale study at the ADT facility. Evaluation of the actual real water is an important step in the process as it allows the quantification of the problem and a preliminary estimate of the capital and operational expenses. These latter will be further defined during the actual field trial. An NRE proposal is prepared in order to determine the time scale and deliverables for the realization of the project.
Once the customer has approved this proposal, usually under a joint development agreement or a regular contract, ADT will work with the customer and partners in order to deliver a field pilot system (usually in the 10% of the full scale). The pilot system will enable the estimation of the integration of a Diamonox water treatment in the current system (if already present) and provide a more accurate estimate of the capital and operational costs for the full system. Finally, the terms of delivery of the final system is then agree between ADT and the customer.

Giving 'hand-drawn' a brand new meaning.
Perhaps one of my favourite things about games journalism is seeing projects with a lot of promise blossom into beautiful and fully-realised creations over years of work. The Collage Atlas is one such creation. In 2016, I was attending EGX in Birmingham as press for the first time, and a very early build of developer John Evelyn's hand-drawn exploration game was on show. It was relatively barebones, but something about it really excited me. Two and a half years on, that excitement is just as strong having seen how far it's come at Rezzed 2019.
The Collage Atlas is entirely drawn in fineliner pen, with intricate detailing throughout every asset. It's composed of a mixture of 2D sprites and simple 3D objects that intertwine seamlessly, all on a static background texture of sketch paper that makes me feel like I've dived headfirst into John's illustrations. The style and attention to detail make a lot of sense when you discover the game began as a picture book. "I had self-published some picture book some years before, and I was going to make a second one. It wasn't going to be a game, I thought I'd done my game bit," Evelyn explains.
"But, I was going to make an app to accompany the book, and just had these scenes that you could stand in and not really interact with. The book was going to be about themes of agency and having a meaningful effect on the world around you. In one of the scenes I'd put a pinwheel flower, that when you gazed at it, it spun. All of a sudden I was like, okay, this is the best way of communicating the messages that I'm trying to get across, so all of a sudden it had to be a game. It can't be a book, it has to be a game."
The interaction you have with your environment in The Collage Atlas is relatively hands-off. It could be considered a 'walking simulator' of sorts, and while I've come to adore such games, I think describing it as that would be doing it a disservice. The Collage Atlas to me is all about soaking in the gentle beauty of the world around you. One section of the demo has me finding swirling, glowing orbs that all come together to repair one of a selection of paintings. Another has me do the same, but I'm whisked off my feet and soaring through patches of forest and ramping up in speed with every orb I collect.
The Collage Atlas has an interesting relationship with speed. The demo isn't awfully long and you can move quite quickly through it, but I found myself holding back on the analog stick to gently glide past the environment at a snail's pace. "I had thought about slowing down the pace and bringing it right back, but actually some people want to hurry between points and then moderate their speeds at other points," John told me. Agency in The Collage Atlas is key; moving at my own pace makes me feel a deeper connection with the experience that I might not otherwise have felt.
John has been making games since the age of 11, finding his start with Klik and Play, a piece of drag-and-drop game making software "which loads of developers seem to have started with." Later he found a home making flash games on Newgrounds, until putting down the controller and becoming a graphic designer. After serious illness landed him in hospital, he reassessed things. "I remember saying to my dad when he came to visit me, I was like, 'I need to be making games.' That was the thing that was still burning away in the back of my mind."
It makes sense, then, that what we can see of The Collage Atlas so far allows you to go at your own pace. You have the control to go as slow or as fast as you'd like – but if you rush through it all, you may miss out on the chance to stop and smell the roses.
On the booth art and the 'thanks for playing' screen at the end of the demo was the promise of a winter 2019 release. I asked John about it and he laughed, saying, "Yes, it does say that! If it was just a question of getting the content complete, then we'd be good for that." Ironically enough, it seems that the question of The Collage Atlas' release date is actually out of his hands for the time being.
"But the big questions really are around the business side and the publishing side of things. And that's very much like… it's just going to happen to me rather than me steering it. That's the only reason why that 2019 date might be slightly more elastic, but we are certainly talking months, not years."
Astrid is a formidable foe that has studied the art of the keyboard for many years. Her primary subjects of interest include labour rights in the games industry, really weird and artsy indie games, and adding "but Communism" to the ends of game titles as a means of coming up with ideas for what to write about.

Usability making products unusable
In several of the recent software, an emphasis on too much "usability" whatever it is seems to be making the software hopeless to the point that it is unusable.
Usability question
Features of a new commercial product are defined by product managers, not by the developers.
I agree: most people out there will find the cool toolbars and other things a pain. Developers sometimes tend to forget people are not so friends to computers as they are.
Dreamweaver is a developer's tool, and I like MX a lot. I don't see any reason MX's interface couldn't be cluttered.
Internet Explorer menu/toolbars and the Windows XP taskbar let you lock their position from the right click menu. This also hides the drag handle bars. I believe they both come this way by default.
Chris Altmann
In Opera and Dreamweaver I put the occasional thing at the bottom of the screen... Well, ok in Opera it's just the status bar, but in Dreamweaver it'st he whole proerpties window.
It should take a minute of thought, or a of moment testing, to see that the specific features you mention directly and negatively affect usability.
I don't think it's ever useful to reinforce a point by pointing to Microsoft, good or bad. Unfortuantely, Microsoft is an anomoly. Some of its good products fail and some of its bad products succeed. Many of the successful products are so because MS is everywhere. Some of its failures are due to general dislike of MS.
The DENIM application
UI Designer
Personaly, usually the first thing I do when I try a new piece of sofware is remove all the toolbars :-)
Frederic Faure
I have to agree with one anonymous poster above. What you're complaining about is not usability, but featuritis.
office has always had configurable menus. was always a pain. that's what modes are for, lock is the right way to go!
DENIM looks cool; pity the intelligence in the UI didn't go into the website - videos to show program functionality? What's wrong with screenshots?
I think another good example of this is NN/g's website. I personally find it hard to locate things at a glance there. I suppose that the large fonts with the simple colors makes it easy to read each specific item, but when you're just scanning through the site looking for one thing, it doesn't really pop out at you.
About a dozen years ago, I read an article in the New York Times about an exhibition of children's artwork. Fingerpaintings from a particular kindergarten class were prominent, which led many to draw the conclusion that the teacher of that class was brilliant. The teacher instantly gained this reputation and when interviewed by the Times about her techniques, she replied rather off-handedly that "I just take their pictures away before they ruin them."
Jim S.
Kent Design4Effect
Who is stupider, the company that "upgrades" its products by obfuscating their interfaces, or the customers who buy said "upgrades?"
Dan Maas
I tend to go for the tool that works the best for my needs no matter who makes it.
As for Japan wanting menu bars on the right, no they're quite happy with menu bars the way they are.
Joel Goodwin
To the topic originator:
He did mention his 60 year old father accidentally moving one, thus making the application unusable.
Yeah, it makes application unusable, but how it is related to the topic's caption "usability making products unusable"?
If they added this feature thinking they were making the product more usable, and it ended up being less usable becuase of it, then it has everything to do with the post.
Products would be more usable if developers provided tech support.

Despite acknowledging that Quebec is Canada's most indebted province, Finance Minister Raymond Bachand says it is on course to eliminate the deficit with a "responsible" budget that also contains several new measures aimed at appeasing irritated voters.
Helping to pay for those new measures: ambitious plans to cash in on its natural-resources sector, especially mining.
On Tuesday, Mr. Bachand released his 2012-13 budget with new programs to help the elderly and reduce greenhouse-gas emissions.
Not in the document: relief for university students. The government chose to ignore growing student protests, refusing to cave in to demands to reduce the 75-per-cent tuition fee hikes over five years.
With spending projected at $70.9-billion and revenue at $69.4-billion, the government will run a $1.5-billion deficit in 2012-13, but promises to eliminate the deficit the following year.
Opposition parties labelled it a pre-election budget, with the government proposing to invest heavily in resource-rich regions, where predominantly francophone voters have turned their backs on the Liberals.
But Mr. Bachand insisted that this was not a pre-election budget.
"This is a responsible budget. A budget that Quebec needs. I would prefer that we wait a year before calling an election. That would allow me to table a zero-deficit budget. But the Premier is the one who decides, not me," he said.
The budget will open the way for the government to take an equity interest in mining projects, as well the emerging oil and gas industry. Resources Québec is the new Crown corporation that will be set up to manage a $1.2-billion equity portfolio.
The government expects mining sector royalties alone to grow nearly tenfold over a half-dozen years – from an average of $42-million per year between 2006-07 and 2009-10 to $415-million in 2016-17. Mr. Bachand estimates that existing mining operations – and those currently being built – will funnel $4-billion in royalties into public coffers over the next 10 years.
He said cash from the province's natural-resources sectors has already started to flow, predicting total royalties in 2011-12 to hit nearly $1.2-billion, and climb to $1.5-billion by 2016-17.
But Quebec also wants a cut of the profits. According to the budget documents, the government will negotiate equity positions in all mining projects that call on its help for infrastructure needs or electricity rates. It will also define a similar strategy for future oil and gas projects.
"This is new in what we are going to do in Quebec," Mr. Bachand, stating that he borrowed the idea from former Parti Québécois premier Jacques Parizeau. "It comes down to what Mr. Parizeau said ... we have to make sure we get a share of the business."
Mr. Bachand announced that the government will support three multibillion-dollar projects – the building of a pipeline to supply natural gas to the North Shore region and the extension of a power transmission line to Nunavik to supply energy to mining operations. The third is a project by CN and the Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec to build a rail link between Sept-Îles and mining projects in the Labrador Trough.
Quebec is setting up with other jurisdictions in North America a cap and trade system financed by greenhouse-gas emission allowances, beginning on Jan. 1. Profits from the carbon market will mostly be awarded to improving public transit.
Reports of the mistreatment of elderly patients in nursing homes sparked an outcry that forced Mr. Bachand to increase funding for seniors. In the 2012-13 fiscal year, an additional $40-million will go to improving services. Over the next five years, $500-million each year will be devoted to health-care services for the elderly as well as home-support programs, housing needs and special assistance to caregivers.
Beginning Jan. 1, the voluntary retirement savings plans proposed in last year's budget will come into force. Companies with five employees or more will have three years to offer workers a pension plan. There will be no obligation to participate and contributions will vary. The plans will be managed by a third party and will be flexible if a worker changes employers.

For a guy who never had a chance to taste March Madness, Ater Majok's Connecticut career ended up much like the month's weather forecast: in like a lion, out like a lamb.
Majok's arrival in Storrs came with almost breathless anticipation, with hopes and expectations that the former Sudanese refugee would follow in the talented big man footsteps laid before him.
Instead Majok's career started late while his eligibility was cleared up, and finished with a whimper. In 26 games he averaged only 2.3 points and 3.0 rebounds. On Tuesday, the university announced he had withdrawn from the school.
His numbers might imply Majok won't be missed.
And ordinarily he wouldn't be, but these are no ordinary times at UConn. Already mired in a horrific offseason, thanks to a love note from the NCAA that penned the organization's notice of allegations, Majok's late decision is more salt in the wound.
The Huskies last year missed the NCAA Tournament and finished a pedestrian 18-16. Their biggest problem: scoring.
Now Jim Calhoun heads into the preseason down a big man in an already slim-pickings frontcourt that struggled to score even with Majok.
Whether Majok would have found the firepower to match -- he's blessed with great length and skill -- is impossible to know, but he did have promise as something more than just a rebounder.
Instead the Huskies are left with Alex Oriakhi and Charles Okwandu, who together averaged six points per game.
Do the Huskies need to beware the Ides of March again?

For anyone still doubting the effect of mobile devices on online gambling, then the latest report by Juniper Research should put any questions to bed. According to the research over $45 billion will be spent on wagers through betting exchanges and sports betting alone by 2017 via our mobile devices. This predicted rise is significant as currently "only" $13 billion was spent in 2011.
While many scratch card sites offer mobile scratch apps, there are still many people who are not aware of the convenience of simply pushing a button to scratch life-changing jackpots.
The explosion of high quality and affordable smartphone and tablet devices has changed the online gambling market in a short space of time. With smartphones and tablet no longer being exclusively for high-end users this has meant that millions of global online players are now choosing the convenience of mobile gambling.
While these figures from Juniper are mind boggling, the overall mobile online gambling via mobile devices is set to reach an estimated $100 billion by 2017.
The trend of controlling our online scratchies with a mobile scratch card app is becoming the choice for the intelligent online gambler. Gone are the days when scratch card choices were limited to tickets bought at a corner store. The combination of mobile devices has meant that scratch cards are the ultimate mobile gambling gateway to affordable and easy to play online games.
It comes as no surprise that the competition from all top online scratch card sits to deliver curing edge mobile scratchie apps is so fierce. Like other gambling sectors, the online scratch card has been taken to another level with the increasingly popular mobile scratch game apps.For millions around the globe, the chance to scratch at your own pace whenever you so decide has meant that mobile online gambling is quickly becoming the fastest growing sector in the gambling world.
The Juniper report also found that many UK based betting agencies like William Hill, Ladbrokes and Paddy Power have reported significant increases of up to 40% when it comes to customers who chose to place their bets via a mobile device . In fact overall the mobile betting industry is set to account for over 20% of all bets placed.More importantly the report also predicts that this figure will rise to over 40% within the next two years.

Chilly weather always makes me think of comfort foods that warm my inside. And when it comes to Korean food, Kalbi Jjim always makes the list since it's so nourishing. (If you want to skip to the recipe, click here.)
Most people know Korean BBQ beef, Kalbi, (also spelled 'Galbi') – a grilled meat dish that made Korean cuisine make its way into mainstream, way before kimchi became trendy.
It's kinda weird since beef is really REALLY expensive in Korea and only the "rich" can afford to eat meat. Most of us "common" folks eat 'meat of the earth', fermented soybean paste, Doenjang, as if it's the best food on the planet. And it is 'the best food on the planet' in many ways but let's face it; it's not meat. It wasn't until I came to the U.S. when I started eating Kalbi; maybe once a month. If at that.
Anyway, when I eat Kalbi, it's usually in the summer when outdoor grilling is easy. The smokey and savory aroma of grilling kalbi wafting through the neighborhood always makes my neighbors wonder why their steaks don't smell the same. Tee he he…
But when the weather gets colder, we take the same flavors "inside" because we need to nourish our bodies with good fats and protein. And I thank my Korean ancestors for coming up with this way to enjoy short ribs in the winter….even if I had to wait until I came to America to enjoy it. Oh the irony.
Isn't it called, "Braised" Korean Short Ribs?
I see a lot of recipes with titles that say "Braised Korean Short Ribs" and it's misleading because technically, it's not 'braised' since you don't brown the meat before cooking. It's simply simmered (definition of 'jjim') for hours to break down the protein to tenderize the meat and to lock in all the flavors until they are happy together. It's kinda how I make my fighting children make peace. Keep them in the same room until they work out their differences. It makes me a monster mom but it works. It's the same with Kalbijjim….being in the same pot for hours, the meat and spices have no choice but to get along REALLY well together.
The downside of making Kabijjim is the HOURS it takes to simmer on the stovetop. You can't leave the house and you go bonkers smelling the deliciousness for hours while your stomach growls.
Enter the pressure cooker.
Now I use a pressure cooker to simmer for less than an hour. And of course, making it in the Instant Pot (Amazon Affiliate Link) is even better since it's stainless steel and unlike my old stovetop pressure cooker, I don't have to babysit it. It is a game changer.
The beauty of making this dish in the Instant Pot is that you can use frozen meat! How great is that? It's a game changer.
But I get that some people still use the stove top pressure cooker or some people don't have a pressure cooker so I wrote three different ways to make this quintessential Korean style braised short ribs.
Kalbi Jjim (Galbi Jjim) – Simmered Korean Short Ribs
One note on the meat. You can use this sauce for any type of meat but make sure it has some fat on it. If it's too lean, the meat gets too dry and chewy even in the pressure cooker. That's why short ribs work really well for this recipe. Some people cut out the bony part of Prime Rib and save them to make this. I think it's brilliant!
If you don't have a pressure cooker, you can simmer for at least 1-2 hours in a heavy bottom pot. But seriously, you need to get a pressure cooker. You'll be a changed cook!
Ok, enough of storytelling and here is the recipe using three different methods.
Kalbijjim or Galibijjim - Simmered Korean Short Ribs in 3 different cooking methods
- 4-5 lbs Grassfed Short Ribs
- 1 C Bone Broth preferably homemade or water
- 1 large onion roughly sliced
- 8 Cloves of garlic smashed
- 1 Med to Large Apple cored and quartered
- 1/2 C White Wine or Rice Wine
- 1 Tbsp Molasses
- 1/4 C Tamari Coconut Aminos if Paleo or regular soy sauce if you don't have gluten issues
- 1 inch Ginger skinned and roughly chopped
Vegetables to Add
- 4 Carrots roughly sliced into chunks
- 1 C Radish or daikon in approx 2"x2"x2" cubes or chunks
- 1 C Raw peeled chestnuts optional
- 1 C Scallions cut in 1" length
- 1 Tbsp Sesame oil
To garnish
- 1 Tbsp Sesame seeds
- 1 Tbsp finely chopped scallions
Prep the meat
- Slice the meat in between the bones as pictured.
- In a large pot, place all the ribs pieces and cover with cold water and let them soak for at an hour.
- Drain the water and fill the pot, just above the meat.
- On high heat, bring the water to boil.
- Discard the water with all the brown scum and wipe down the side of the pot.
- Repeat until the water is relatively clear and set it aside.
- Blend all the ingredients listed under 'Sauce' until smooth in a blender or a food processor.
For Instant Pot
- Add the meat and the sauce in the Instant Pot.
- Make sure the silicone ring is in placed properly and the pressure release valve is closed.
- Close the lid tightly.
- Choose Beef/Stew setting and increase the time to 40 minutes.
- When the timer stops, use Quick Release (QR) and open the vent.
- When the venting stops, open the lid carefully.
- Add the vegetables and sesame oil.
- Close the lid tightly, make sure the release valve is CLOSED.
- Click on MANUAL and timer for 15 minutes.
- When the timer goes off, use Natural Pressure Release (NPR).
- When it stops, open the lid, and plate the ribs with sesame seeds and finely chopped scallions as garnish.
- Serve immediately with rice.
For Stove Top Pressure Cookers
- Prep the meat and make the sauce as per directions above.
- Put the meat and sauce in the pressure cooker and put it on the stove top on HIGH heat until the pressure release valve starts to move. It should take about 10-15 minutes.
- Lower the heat to medium heat.
- Cook for about 15 minutes.
- Release the pressure valve and open the vent.
- Open the pot when the pressure is completely released.
- Add the vegetables.
- Close the lid and put the pressure cooker back on the stovetop on HIGH for 10 minutes after the vent valve starts to move.
- Turn off the heat until the pressure is released naturally.
- Plate the meat and garnish with sesame seeds and scallions.
- Serve immediately with rice.
Stove Top Method
- In a heavy bottom pot - heavy bottom stainless steel pot, enamel coated dutch oven or cast iron pot - place half of the vegetables and meat on top.
- Add the rest of the vegetables, the meat, and the remaining sauce on top.
- Close the lid tightly and place the pot on the stove on high heat. Bring to boil
- When the liquid boils, lower the temperature and simmer for an hour.
- Check for doneness after simmering for an hour. Turn the meat and vegetables over and mix them gently. If the meat is still tough, simmer for another 30 minutes. The meat should fall apart.
- Garnish with scallions and sesame seeds before serving.
Slow Cooker Method
- Place all the ingredients in the slow cooker and mix.
- Cook for 6 -7 hours on HIGH or 8-9 hours on LOW.
- When the meat falls off the bones, plate the ribs, garnish with sesame seeds and scallions before serving.
After you've cleaned out the meat, save the bones to make bone broth! I freeze them until there are enough bones to add to the joint bones to make broth. No wasting food around my kitchen!

We were very excited for our London trip. As soon as we were settled in our hotel, we went out to discover the city. When we get off the tube at Westminster, the famous Big Ben was just in front of us. Most people think that 'Big Ben' is the name of the tower, but I have learned that it is actually the name of the big bell in the tower. The tower was named the 'Elisabeth Tower' in 2012, which was built in 1856 and is a part of the parliament building.
We continued our walk on parliament street Whitehall, among many statues. When we entered the garden of a building, we realized that it was Horse Guards Parade and the big park that ran alongside it was one of the oldest royal parks, St. James. It was the first time I saw those deck chairs that we would run into in most parks in the following days. It was possible to rent them for a reasonable price – £1.50 for up to one hour, £4 for up to 3 hours, £7 for all day, or £100 for the whole year, which may be reasonable for those who live in London and want to use the chairs often.
After a short coffee break, we walked through Trafalgar Square and arrived at the Thames. The Iconic London Eye seemed very attractive. I was a bit unsure about getting a ride on it, since I am afraid of heights, but Barış convinced me about how safe it was and how beautiful the view waiting for us up there would be.
The ticket queue for London Eye was extremely long. Luckily we realized that there was also a "Fast Track" queue, where you pay more and get into a quicker lane. Although I always support equal treatment, I found this useful for people who don't have much time to spend in London, and can prioritize a London Eye ride over eating an expensive dinner.
The London Eye is 135 meters high, and the view at the top is incredible. Especially for me who has no sense of navigation, it was a great experience to see London from above, from our hotel to the regions we had been to. There are 32 booths on the wheel, and each can take 25 people at a time. This helps a lot of people enjoy the view at the same time.
After this nice experience we discovered the South Bank. Waterloo Station was very interesting in this region. The station was built in 1922 and the first rails were built in 1848, and now more than 90 million people travel on it every year.
On our very first day in London, we had the urge to discover the whole city. In the evening we went to Soho, where was full of nice bars and restaurants. Seeing the increasing crowds made us very happy since we are not used to that in Sweden. People were enjoying their drinks outside the bars and they all seemed very happy and friendly (or maybe everything looked extra nice since we were on vacation).
Our first day was over, and we were very satisfied with London.
