With all of the added summer activity, your garage door is going to get a workout. It is essential for the safety of you and your family to inspect the door, top to bottom. You need to be sure it doesn't have any worn out parts that might snap when the door is opened.
Clean the Door's Surface
Be sure you don't use a power washer on the door or harsh chemicals because you could damage the surface of the door as well as the seals. Use a mild soap, such as car-washing or dish-washing detergent and water. The interior and exterior should be washed using a soft brush, sponge, or cloth.
If you see any signs of rust on a steel door, you could have moisture damage. You will want to sand the rust and apply a primer rich in zinc. Follow up with a high-quality exterior paint. It is also advisable to wax the door every six months for added protection. You can use a high-quality car wax for the job.
Lubricate all Moving Parts
You can prevent a lot of the rattles and clanks during the summer if you lubricate all of the moving parts of the garage door. You will want to lubricate the screws, chain, hinges, and pulleys.
You should avoid WD40 oil for lubrication because if can damage the moving parts. Not only is WD40 a magnet for dust and dirt, it also removes any other garage door lubricant you may be using.
Diagnose Door for Loose Parts
Check the entire door for any loose nuts or screws. However, if you see one with a red head, use caution because these are under tension. You should have a professional check the red heads.
Diagnose the Springs
The springs should be kept rust-free to help prevent breakage. The springs have high tension, and some come in a protective tube so you won't need to worry about them. You can pull the emergency release on the door while it is closed to check the tension on the springs.
Raise the door to waist-high to see if it closes. If it does, you need more tension. However, if it flies up on its own, the springs are too tight. Your goal is to keep the door at your waist. It is advisable to contact the professionals for garage door service if you suspect a problem with the springs.
These are a few simple tips you should perform to get your summer off to a good start. After all, you don't want to be in a hurry and have a door land on your car.Share

Despite differences with leading Democrat Nancy Pelosi, Rep. Al Green is vowing to impeach President Trump if the Democrats win back the House of Representatives this November.
The former head of the Houston chapter of the NAACP, a leading Congressional Black Caucus crank and a buddy of anti-Semitic hatemonger Louis Farrakhan has dismissed warnings that such threats could serve to motivate Trump's supporters to turn out at the polls and is going full speed ahead in planning what will be a public lynching.
The Congressional Black Caucus and it's extremist allies have never accepted the results of the 2016 election and in the case of the CBC, appear to be furious that Barack Obama was term-limited by the Constitution and want their blood vengeance.
Along with crazy old Maxine Waters, Green has been at the tip of the spear for impeachment efforts. Green has no use for the Constitution and the standard for impeachment of "high crimes and misdemeanors" because he just wants to string Trump up because of his alleged "hateful discrimination against Jews, Latinos, Blacks, Women, and the LGBTQ community" all of which is utter nonsense.
Green made his promise during an appearance televised on CSPAN during a chat with host Pedro Echevarria.
Dem Rep.: We'll Impeach Trump if We Win Back House… https://t.co/ia003ssxHx
— DRUDGE REPORT (@DRUDGE_REPORT) May 22, 2018
Via Grabien:
If Americans give the House of Representatives back to the Democratic Party this November, one of first things that will happen is the impeachment of President Trump, Rep. Al Green (D-Texas) said Tuesday.
"There's a good likelihood there will be articles of impeachment" brought against Trump, Rep. Green said. "Here is a point that I think is salient, and one that ought to be referenced. Every member of the House is accorded the opportunity to bring up impeachment. This is not something the Constitution has bestowed upon leadership. It's something every member has the right and privilege of doing."
Rep. Green, who has been one of the most vocal proponents of impeaching Trump, made the comments during an appearance on CSPAN.
Here's a transcript:
ECHEVARRIA: "If Democrats take back the House in November, what is the likelihood that Speaker Nancy Pelosi bring up an impeachment charge?"
GREEN: "I'll let Speaker Pelosi address her actions. But here is a point that I think is salient and one that ought to be referenced. Every member of the House is accorded the opportunity to bring up impeachment. This is not something that the Constitution has bestowed upon leadership. It is something that every member has the right and privilege of doing. I am not sure that there will be members who are going to wait for someone else if that someone else, doesn't matter who it is, is declining to do it. We can all do it. And I think there is a good likelihood there will be Articles of Impeachment."
ECHEVARRIA: "Have you heard directly from the Minority Leader about these efforts of yours, specifically asking you to stop or hold back? Anything along that line?"
GREEN: "Well, I don't think you have to ask me what I've heard. If you have read publications, it is intuitively obvious to perhaps even the most casual observer that she and I are in different places on this. I respect her position."
It's not only Green – who resembles a caveman with a ponytail – either but other Dems are busily hammering out charges more detailed than those of the CBC demagogue's crude rants.
According to a story in The New Yorker on the coming Democrat civil war:
In Congress, there's a surprisingly vigorous impeachment lobby expanding on the work that Al Green began. Steve Cohen, a Democrat from Tennessee and the ranking member of the Constitution and Civil Justice subcommittee of the House Judiciary Committee, has fleshed Green's bare-bones proposal out into a full impeachment resolution. Cohen's indictment has five counts. The first charges Trump with obstruction of justice, based largely on Comey's account of how the President tried to restrain the Russia investigation and then fired Comey when he would not oblige. The second count, referring to Trump's business interests, including his hotels, asserts that he violated the foreign-emoluments clause of the Constitution, which bars federal officeholders from receiving payments from foreign governments. In a similar vein, the third count asserts that Trump directed federal money to his businesses and hotels domestically. The fourth count charges him with abuse of power for his criticisms of federal judges and for his pardon of Joe Arpaio, the former sheriff of Maricopa County, in Arizona. The final count claims that Trump undermined the First Amendment by repeatedly attacking the news media. Like Green, Cohen is aware that there is not yet a consensus in favor of impeachment, even among Democrats, but he is determined to plow ahead. "It's a moral decision to do the right thing, regardless of the politics," he told me. "Sometimes going on the record against evil may not make you effective at first in stopping evil, but it can still contribute in ways you don't know."
Unless that "blue wave" fails to materialize, you can bet the far that these bitter freaks will impeach the legitimately elected president over trumped-up charges and it will be a media feeding frenzy unlke anything that we have ever seen before. Even bigger than the O.J. Simpson trial.

Had a bad day at work or tired of lying in your quilt due to the flu? There is a common solution to lift up your mood instantly; pizzas. However depressed you may be or weak due to a sickness, as soon as you see the pizza delivery boy you immediately start feeling much better. This Italian delicacy is customized by each country and yet retains its popularity worldwide. The time span between you placing the order and it getting delivered seems like a long wait. Pizza Hut intends to make this wait easier for you. The international food chain is investing in latest technology and more drivers to widen its reach and lessen the delivery time.
Pizza hut made an announcement on Tuesday stating that it aims to order around 14,000 drivers by the time 2017 comes to an end. It means that the food chain will not hire thousands of employees, but specifically drivers. This clearly signifies that the company wants to ensure faster and widespread delivery. Such services will help increase its consumer base as well. Apart from this, it is also adding a new technology system. This system will enhance the accuracy as well as the reliability of pizza deliveries.
Pizza Hut is all set for expansion
Yum! Brands, the parent company of Pizza Hut made this announcement which is related to a recent investment. A few weeks back, the company stated that it plans to invest around $130 million between 2017 and 2018 in order to upgrade the pizza chain. This upgrade is not only in terms of hiring more drivers but also aims to make its services technologically-driven. It is a sign that the company wants to stay updated and provide faster services with the help of technology. This step can be in response to a competitive threat imposed by another pizza chain, Domino's. Market analysts believe that by 2018 it might lose its dominant position in the market to Domino's.
Currently, Pizza Hut has more than 16,400 franchises in over a hundred countries. Domino's comes second in this context with 14,000 franchises in more than 85 countries. To make sure that Pizza Hut doesn't lose its position as a market leader, the investment will work on quicken the upgrades of restaurant technology, boost advertising, improve customer services along with digital and e-commerce capability. For faster services, the food chain will approximately hire 3,000 drivers every month. This is double the number of drivers it usually hires. Such efforts might pay off if conducted systematically.

That's right, there's a new conference focused 100% on conversion rate optimization taking place this May in San Jose California called Conversion Conference West.
The conference is being organized and lead by well known conversion rate optimization authority, Tim Ash of Sitetuners.com and includes a lengthy list of speakers, Â many of which are well known in web marketing and conversion circles.
The fact that conversion rate optimization can now support a full blown conference says something about the momentum its building as a legitimate tool in the Internet Marketers tool box.
Much like search engine optimization, conversion rate optimization is now a discipline unto itself with many people choosing to solely focus on helping companies increase the number of  leads and sales they generate with their existing website traffic. In the past the focus of the large majority of web marketing consultants had been on just getting traffic to a site in the first place. Now, it's about doing more with less – or more with what you already have. It's an interesting trend and one that is here to stay.

pipeline_sync - advanced version of the check_earlytalker plugin
This plugin checks if the remote host honours RFC 1854 (SMTP Service Extension for Command Pipelining), which we announce:
``The EHLO, DATA, VRFY, EXPN, TURN, QUIT, and NOOP commands can only appear as the last command in a group since their success or failure produces a change of state which the client SMTP must accommodate. (NOOP is included in this group so it can be used as a synchronization point.)''
The pipeline_sync plugin may be configure to check at EHLO/HELO, DATA, VRFY and NOOP. QUIT would be to late anyway and the other commands are not supported by qpsmtpd. Any data sent by the client before the configured timeout is a no-go and the hook returns with the specified action.
Arguments are key/value pairs. Setting the TIMEOUT values below to
0 disables the checks for the given hook. You may specify also an action, separated by a
,. Known arguments are:
- connect TIMEOUT[,ACTION]
Wait TIMEOUT seconds at connect before sending out the greeting banner, default timeout is
- data TIMEOUT[,ACTION]
Wait TIMEOUT seconds before sending the
354message to the client, default timeout is
- noop TIMEOUT[,ACTION]
Wait TIMEOUT seconds before returning
250 OKto the client, this check is disabled by default.
- vrfy TIMEOUT[,ACTION]
Wait TIMEOUT seconds before the other hook_vrfy() do something, this check is disabled by default.
- action DENY(SOFT)?(_DISCONNECT)?
This sets the default action: Sent (a temporary) error to the client and optionally disconnect, see docs/plugins.pod and Qpsmtpd::Constants for more info about the DENY, DENYSOFT, DENY_DISCONNECT and DENYSOFT_DISCONNECT constants.
Default action is
- defer BOOLEAN
If set to a true value, clients talking before the greeting banner will be punished after sending
MAIL FROMinstead of immediately. Default is NOT to defer pubishing.
hook_vrfy() does currently not support DENYSOFT* and DENY_DISCONNECT.
hook_noop() does currently not support DENYSOFT*.
Drop me a note if you want to use one of the above.
Based on the check_earlytalker plugin from the qpsmtpd distribution.

Kenny urges caution after near miss with a van
Six-time Olympic champion Jason Kenny has urged motorists to think about the potential consequences of their actions towards cyclists following a "scary" incident he and his one-year-old son Albie were involved in last month.
On February 17 Kenny posted a message on Twitter in which he described the incident he said saw him "almost run over by a van driver."
Kenny wrote: "On a nice Sunday afternoon I go for a ride with our 18 months old son on quiet country lanes only to be almost run over by a van driver who drove at us, then proceeded to angrily inform me it was my fault we nearly died.
"In his dense skull he believes he has right of way so he's willing to kill someone? What's wrong with people?! Seriously do we think that little of cyclists in this country? It's embarrassing, I'm ashamed to breath the same air as this man."
Talking about that "angry tweet" on Monday on BBC One, Kenny said: "Someone felt they had right of way and decided that gave them the right to kind of jump on the throttle and drive at us, which was a scary experience.
"I'm a bit annoyed at myself because I lost my temper at the time. We had a heated debate about the incident and then the person drove away.
"I think there seems to be a bad feeling against cyclists and it's really strange because they're only people.
"We met a young boy and young girl who recently lost their mum, and it's really sad when you see that side of it. She got hit by a car and that's someone's mum, not just a cyclist. It is really sad when you see the consequences of that.
"This person has obviously just seen red, 'I've got right of way, I'm going to go', and you might have right of way technically – whether you do or don't is often debatable – but it doesn't give you the right to smash someone and potentially kill someone, which is what is going to happen if you run someone off their bike.
"I think it's just taking a breath and think about the consequences."
Jason Kenny is looking ahead to TokyoPA Sport
The 31-year-old's wife Laura Kenny, the four-time Olympic champion, gave birth to Albie in August 2017.
As the couple target the Tokyo 2020 Games – where further success for Jason would see him eclipse Sir Chris Hoy as Britain's most decorated Olympian – they have been discussing the prospect of Albie making the trip with them, as he has done for the last two track world championships in Apeldoorn and Pruszkow.
"We want to take him for sure," Kenny said."

Nineteen Virginian chambers of commerce have joined forces to urge the state's U.S. senators to support the construction of a natural gas pipeline through the state.
The chambers recently co-signed a letter to Virginia U.S. Sen. Tim Kaine, who is also the Democratic vice presidential candidate, and Virginia Democratic Sen. Mark Warner to communicate their support for the Atlantic Coast Pipeline project to President Obama and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), which is charged with deciding whether to green-light the Atlantic Coast Pipeline project.
In the letter, the chambers wrote that they and other business organizations throughout Virginia "believe development of North American energy resources will create and preserve thousands of jobs and greatly benefit Virginia's economy."
The letter also said the project will create 8,800 jobs during construction and 1,300 after it is built.
"Virginia consumers will realize $243 million in savings annually once the pipeline is operational," the chambers wrote. "In addition, millions of dollars of much-needed new tax revenue will be generated that could be used for local projects and infrastructure, like schools, roads and bridges."
The chambers also cited the support of Gov. Terry McAuliffe, who said the project would be a game changer for Virginia's economy.
"The benefits will be both immediate and long-lasting," McAuliffe said. "In addition to the thousands of jobs and billions in economic activity that the construction of this project will create, the Atlantic Coast pipeline will lower energy costs for Virginia residents and businesses, and help reduce carbon emissions in our state and region."
U.S. Army Capt. James McCormick (retired), program director of Vets4Energy, told TI News Daily that the project also would benefit U.S. national security.
"Energy security is about more than just producing more of our oil and gas here at home; it's also about being able to transport it safely, securely and efficiently to our communities, homes and businesses where it is needed," McCormick said. "We absolutely need to maintain and expand our energy infrastructure to get energy to where it needs to be, and to keep our country safe — the Atlantic Coast Pipeline is a vital part of that."
Vets4Energy is an organization of U.S. veterans who advocate for policies that increase U.S. energy independence.
Dominion Transmission, a subsidiary of Richmond, Virginia-based Dominion Resources, is the Atlantic Coast Pipeline's main sponsor.
Oil and Gas Journal reports that the company applied to FERC to build the 564-mile interstate gas pipeline from Harrison County, West Virginia, to Chesapeake, Virginia, and Robeson County, North Carolina. The company anticipates FERC will issue a draft environmental impact statement (EIS) in December and a final EIS in June 2017.

Today is mother's day and I would like to acknowledge the two mothers in my life. One of my most important person for me is my mama. She's the one who gave us unconditional love and care. She's very unselfish and kind. If there is only 4 pieces of bread for five people, she will give us one of each and doesn't care about herself. I am a mama's girl every time I get sick. I love to have my mother beside me. Her mother's love and care will make me feel better even if she's not a doctor. She is very supportive and I would like to Thank her for making me who I am right now. For bringing us into this world and raised us with good manners. A word thank you is not enough to what she have been done to all of us siblings.
When I moved here in the US, one thing that I'm worried of is not to be with my family especially my mama with me. However, I am so Blessed that God gave me the greatest people in my life. He gave me a second mother and that is my mother-in-law. She is the most nicest person I know ever! She treat me like her own biological daughter. She's one of those person that I feel comfortable talking and sharing with. She's not also a mother but I consider her as one of my best friend and sister ;). She's one of those people that is really helpful to me as part of my adjustments to my new country.
Happy mother's day to my two special moms! I'm so Blessed that I have a two great mothers. I wanna be like them when the time I have my own kids. And to my sister, sister-in-law, granmas, and to all moms, mama, mommy, mamu, Inay, mothers, nanays, around the world...Happy mother's day...mwah!

Have a look at the picture above. What if, this huge jam was a result of a failing interface to or from the warehouse. Whether the root cause of the error is in communication, mapping, or anything else, you could quickly find out using the interface monitors, like the ones provided by SAP PI or SAP AIF. But on the other hand, from those monitors you would not see the implication that these errors have on the company's business processes. Yes, in this case probably looking out the window would be enough? But, it is not always that obvious.

Recently, during my last AIF project, we encountered a challenge and we wondered if it is possible to save the payload of the response message for the outbound synchronous proxy interface in SAP AIF. We found a solution, but since that time many of our colleagues working with SAP AIF encountered the same challenge and that was the reason why we decided to write this blog with our proposed solution. This blog is written in cooperation with my colleague, Krzysztof Łuka.
Imagine the situation when you have to configure the outbound synchronous proxy interface in SAP AIF and you have to save the content of the request and the response messages. If it comes to the content of the request message – there is no problem. You may encounter a challenge if you want to save also the response of the synchronous message.
In this blog we will focus only on the SAP AIF part – we won't describe how to create objects on SAP PO side. We will use the ABAP report to send the request message with the message ID from ERP system to SAP PO. We expect to receive back in the synchronous response the SAP PO message key that is related to the message ID we sent in the request.
This is how sample synchronous request message looks like (with the message ID):
And below you can see the synchronous response message with message key from the above request:
First, you have to generate and activate Service Consumer that will be used in order to send the request from ERP to SAP PO.
Then you have to copy the name of the class for the generated Service Consumer. In our case, it is /INT4/CO_SI_O_GET_MESSAGE_LIST.
This class is necessary in order to create SAP AIF interface.
In next step go to AIF Customization ( /AIF/CUST transaction ) and go to Interface Development -> Define Interfaces. We will have to create new entries: one interface for the request message and the second interface for the response message.
First, create a new entry for the request message. Type OPRGMSG001 as the interface name and 1 as the interface version.
Then Provide your Service Consumer class (in our case it's /INT4/CO_SI_O_GET_MESSAGE_LIST ) in the class Proxy Class Outbound field and choose the proper method that will trigger sending a message to PO.
Once you provide proxy class outbound – automatically RAW Data Structure and Record Type in Raw Structure should be filled. Please provide the same structure in SAP Data Structure as was filled into RAW Data Structure and mark Move Corresponding Structures checkbox, as it is visible on the screen below:
As a next step, we have to create another entry in Define Interface node. This time we have to do it for the Response Message.
Add a new entry with Interface Name: IPRGMSG001, interface version: 1. In Proxy Class Inbound provide the class of your Service Consumer. In our case, it is /INT4/CO_SI_O_GET_MESSAGE_LIST. Then click enter and again your Raw Data Structure should be filled automatically. Right now we are interested in the response message and because of this, we have to provide the type of the structure that is used as the exporting parameter of our class for the service consumer. In our case it is /INT4/MT_GET_MSG_LIST_RES as it's visible on the screen below:
Use the same structure in SAP and RAW structure and mark Move Corresponding checkbox. Please also make sure, that you have chosen specific proxy method as shown on the screen below:
Right now we have to make sure, that proper Engine is used for both of our interfaces. Go to AIF Customization (transaction /AIF/CUST ). Then open Interface Development -> Additional Interface Properties -> Specify Interface Engines node and set for both interfaces Proxy as Application Engine, XML as Persistence Engine, AIF Index Tables as Selection Engine and AIF Application Log as Logging Engine.
The last step is to create ABAP Report, that will trigger sending the message from ERP to SAP PO.
Create a new program in transaction SE38.
In order to make this program simpler – we will hardcode the message ID that will be sent to SAP PO. We are using function module /AIF/SEND_WITH_PROXY to send the data out from ERP. We have to provide a namespace, interface name and interface version of our interface we created in AIF. In this step, you have to provide an interface used for the request message ( 'OPRGMSG001').
In the RESP_SAP_STRUCT changing parameter we have to provide a structure of the response, that we used in the IPRMSG001 SAP AIF interface. Then in the SAP_STRUCT changing parameter, we have to provide filled with the data structure for the request interface.
In the end, we have to use method /AIF/IF_PERSISTENCY_ENGINE~UPDATE of class /aif/cl_persist_engine_xml in order to store the response payload in SAP AIF. While using this method we have to provide details of the second interface in SAP AIF, that will store the response message.
Please see the whole code snippet for this program below:

Right now we can run the report. If the proxy call was successful we should see a new entry in transaction /AIF/ERR with the payload in the outbound interface OPRGMSG001 with the request message and new entry in with the payload of the response message in interface IPRGMSG001.
Below you can see the request message with the content. Message text automatically contains the information in which interface the response was processed:
In order to make sure that the response is visible we'll go to the second interface for the response message. As you can see on the screenshot below – response message with the payload is there:
How do you like this approach to save the message payload? Please let us know in the comments!
PS. I have a big pleasure to invite you on SAP Teched at Barcelona that will take place in October. As the INT4 team we will be one of the exhibitors and we will be presenting our SAP certified automated regression testing and service interface virtualization software – IFTT.
If you want to learn more about this tool or if you want to ask me or Michal Krawczyk SAP AIF or SAP PO related question we will be available for you at our booth everyday from 13:00-14:00 everyday! See you there!
I can bet, that if you use SAP AIF you are familiar with AIF Monitoring and Error Handling (transaction /AIF/ERR ). Here, we can monitor and perform actions for specific interface. In addition to this transaction SAP AIF also gives us opportunity to monitor all interfaces in one place. In this blog we are going to set up interface in SAP AIF Interface Monitor (AIF/IFMON transaction). Let's imagine the situation, that you are responsible for monitoring several interfaces. Monitoring interfaces in /AIF/ERR transaction is very helpful, although it still can be time consuming if you just want to have a quick overview what is going on in all interfaces you are responsible for.

Nowadays, every single day we have to cope with many different interfaces and technologies. The number of the interfaces that we have to carry on is constantly growing.
When you use SAP AIF (SAP Application Interface Framework) you can monitor all interfaces from one place and that saves a lot of time!
That's the reason why some of our customers use very ofter SAP AIF only for the monitoring purposes. Today I would like to show you how quickly you can enable monitoring IDoc interfaces in SAP AIF in less than 3 minutes!
Please let us know if you like such short videos!
Hi there! In this blog I will show you can you can use SAP AIF multi index table and single index tables in your interfaces.
This blog is the extension of the previous blog: How To Create a Single Index Table in SAP AIF and therefore some steps will be explained in a more general way. You can always visit the previous blog in case you occur any issues with details, but I believe that you won't have any problems, as you mastered this knowledge last time reading the previous blog! 🙂

Almost all integration scenarios require some sort of mapping to be performed. SAP AIF offers a flexible tool called Structure Mapping to handle that. It's based on general concept of traversing the source structure from the root and drilling down to substructures and their fields. However it has certain limitations. One is that if in the source message at certain same level we have multiple structures, we can't indicate in what order SAP AIF should process them. To be more specific, they are always mapped in alphabetical sequence.
However there is a certain trick to specify for SAP AIF structures that should be processed ignoring the alphabetical order, at the very beginning. For that we use a mapping between dummy (blank) source and destination structures (marked in the picture below).
In this particular example for DEBMAS IDoc we would like to map fields of EDIDC structure before E1KNA1M and E1KNB1M so they can be used when mapping those two structures. Unfortunately standard processing will map it at the very end. Below is the dummy mapping that we'll use to address that.
Then in Define Field Mappings we specify any structures we would like to be processed before the rest. In our case this is EDIDC structure.
Don't forget to provide Sub-Table relevant to the mapped structure. In our case it is EDIDC.
Finally we can define our actual mapping for EDIDC structure (as Indirect Mapping) and for its fields.
As a result of this setting we make SAP AIF process the EDIDC structure at the very begging, before other structures. Now we can be sure that when we process the remaining structures they can use the already mapped fields of EDIDC.
Among SAP integration specialist and clients there is quite often a confusion about usage of tools mentioned in the topic of this article. The main reason for their confusion is the fact, that they don't know which tool should they use and what is more important how SAP PO and SAP AIF can be combined in order to make your integration scenario more robust. Let's start from the beginning and let me briefly introduce to you each tool.
SAP Process Orchestration (PO) is an integration platform. It is the middleware between different SAP and non-SAP systems and applications. PO in an easy way allows you to design, model, implement and monitor business processes.
Image 1 Source: https://tinyurl.com/yczgk58g
Thanks to SAP PI/ PO it is possible to:
Application interface Framework (AIF) is more like an integration add-on for your specific business applications. It allows you to implement and monitor an interface and then also handle errors in case of any troubles.
Image 2 Source: https://tinyurl.com/y9psmqls
AIF, as an integration add-on has the following advantages:
As you see both tools share a few features, however, each of them has its specific advantages.
Combination of these two tools allows us to separate business logic from integration logic in your scenarios. This is a general recommendation for all IT landscapes with both business applications and integration platforms. In such scenario, we can put all integration logic to PI and all business logic into AIF.
For example, if you have to cope with different kinds of connectivity protocols like FTP, RFC or SOAP you should handle that in PI. Process Integration is used very often for routing messages between different environments and technical systems. Structure mapping between different message formats can be also handled by SAP PI.
On the other hand, it is good to format, validate data and perform value mappings and put all business logic in SAP AIF. For example, you can easily enrich your data with relevant information retrieved from database tables or use a standard function module to check material availability. Also, the value mapping rules can be accessed and maintained by business users and they can participate in the error handling process.
With AIF it is not possible to connect many legacy systems directly if legacy systems don't allow to call web services. In such scenarios, we should use PI for connection with different systems and then let AIF perform all business logic.
The general rule is to have PI/PO handle the communication across the landscape with all its and take advantage of AIF to perform the business logic.
I hope, that right now you have the general overview of the purpose of Application Interface Framework and Process Orchestration. In next article, we will go through error handling and mappings in both tools.

SOTY 2017: award winning pianist Colleen Lee explains why there are no short cuts to success in the music industry
By Joshua Lee
With so many challenges facing aspiring musicians, it's no surprise that relatively few people end up pursuing a career in the industry. Music students at Renaissance College got a heads-up about what it takes to be a professional musician from award-winning pianist Colleen Lee Ka-ling when she visited the school last month.
The talk was arranged as part of this year's Student of the Year (SOTY) Awards School Tours.
Lee, one of the three judges for this year's Performing Artist category, won the Student Musician of the Year award back in 1995, when she was a student at Heep Yunn School.
Lee began playing the piano at the age of four, and went on to study music at the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts. She has won several international music awards, and also recorded recitals and chamber music programmes for RTHK.
SOTY 2017: Scientist and Mathematician candidates find beauty in STEM subjects
"My music career has taken me around the world, travelling a lot and performing a lot for audiences around the world," Lee told Young Post.
"I am very excited to be a SOTY judge this year. I think being a judge, I have to look for many different qualities of the candidates, and I'm sure all of them will be wonderful."
During the school visit, Lee talked about the challenges she faced pursuing a music career while studying both at a local school and overseas. She offered some valuable advice to the students who had yet to make a decision on their future careers, or what they would like to study at university.
Richard Cheung, 15, plays the violin and is interested in becoming a professional musician.
"I think the key takeaway from the talk for me is how broad music is, and how there isn't a concrete way of interpreting it," he said. "It also made me aware of the difficulties I may have to face should I pursue a music career."
Richard, a Year 11 student, said he would definitely continue to study music in the future. "[The talk] also helped me realise that the music world is quite intense, and that I would have to work hard," he added.
SOTY 2017: be positive, and do something unexpected, say Performing Artist judges
Chloe Chan, a Year 12 student, said Lee's advice was useful for everyday life, irrespective of whether you want to become a musician. "We need to learn from our mistakes and prepare for the next challenge," said the 16-year-old.
Although Chloe has mixed feelings about studying music in the future, she still hopes to play the flute for fun.
She said Lee has inspired her to continue to be involved in music, because it's a skill that can be useful no matter what career she follows.
The school talk reminded Lee of her own musical journey. "Speaking to students who are interested in music makes me think back to how I started my career in music and how I decided I wanted to be a musician," she said.
SOTY 2017: Community Contributor finalists explain why they love to help others
"My music career started after meeting all the wonderful teachers; they [helped boost] my interest in music and made me realise that my passion for music is an inseparable [part] of my life."
She had some tips for this year's SOTY candidates, too. "I want to see a high level of performance on their instruments, and very strong communication [with] the judges," she said. "Besides a wonderful performance, they should also think about their future, and also why they think performing arts is important for them."
Lee also had a message for students who want to pursue a music career. "There are no short cuts, especially in music. It is important that you have patience, diligence, perseverance and, of course, passion. These are all important elements that make up a wonderful musician."
The Student of the Year Awards competition is organised by South China Morning Post and Young Post and sponsored by the Hong Kong Jockey Club.

Trawsfynydd / Ceunant Llennyrch - Rhaeadr Ddu (Du)
www. Waterfalls of Wales. com
More pictures of this Waterfall
More Info.
Access: This is not easy to direct someone to this waterfall! But here goes. There are two villages immediately to the North of Llyn Trawsftnydd, Maentwrog and Gellilydan. So you will have to find your own way there as I want it to say unspoilt…okay, sorry. So you will respect this place?
Right take the A490 out of Maentwrog towards Harlech. After about three quarters of a mile, by the Power Station, just before the bridge turn left. It is a small, steep, turning as I recall, so be sure of what you are doing as it is off of a main road! Carry on up the steep hill. After half a mile, (if the trees haven't been felled!) there will be a wood on the left of the road. Within a hundred yards of this wood ending you will need to park. If you come across a huge pipe snaking across the country side you have gone too far by about three or four hundred yards. Yes I have stood on the pipe. Taken pictures of it, walked for ages through the interesting, wood. Where as the proper, quietly, signed footpath is back a bit. Better maintained and apart from the very last bit easily walked. It is a special place, please, treat it carefully!
Comment: Picture by: R.W. Underwood.
Love this fall.
The very first time we went there it was a very humid, thundery day. All week we had pushed ourselves hard as that is what I used to do, every day and couldn't stop! When we went there Sally, our dog, splashed in and out of the plunge pool retrieving huge sticks.
Hundreds of Dragons flew about and I couldn't catch one on my video camera but must have actually had something there? But no something was motivating these Dragon Flies and they would not sit still!
The next time, as shown by my son's photograph, someone had put up some pagan monuments in reverence to this rather beautiful place.
Still we had some fun filming it on two occasions and an impromptu makeshift, See Saw was fun too, using a boulder and a fallen tree! Simple pleasures that million's couldn't buy!
Please keep this place safe!

Yesterday at Mass, the resident priest told a story about our Bishop. He said that whenever anyone told the Bishop that they were open to a religious vocation, whether male or female, the Bishop would pull out a rosary (or have the priest-secretary obtain one) and offer it as a gift. The Bishop would then ask the individual to pray, asking the heavenly Mother for guidance. The Bishop would also add that person's name to a list and include those names in his own daily prayers.
First, let me say that I love Bishop Peter Jugis, and I think he's an awesome bishop. I was very impressed that he offers rosaries to those who are opening their hearts to God's will. In my own life, the rosary has been the tiller, the Holy Spirit has been the wind, and our heavenly Mother has been the boat who carries and guides me to the Lord.
When I first realized how much I needed the Lord, I didn't know (and I'm still learning) how to spend time with Him. My father (may the Lord bless and keep him) had spent years praying the rosary at home with a family who resisted the invitation to join him. Years later, I found this powerful weapon, which helped unite me to the Eucharist, fight sin, and teach me how to love women like a man should.
As a beginner to the rosary, I had found Fr. Peyton's reflections to be wonderful in their various contemplations of the mysteries. They helped me get past my initial aversion to the "monotony" of the beads; the reflections, pulled from Scripture, also helped me to remain faithful to the devotion. As I grew in understanding and in God, I purchased Fr. Peyton's Rosary Prayer Book, which allowed me to read them without having to go online. After five years, my superficial dislike of constant repetition has been replaced with an intentional longing to hold onto the words of each prayer. After five years, I finally feel peaceful in the arms of my mother, the Church.
In his encyclical Rosarium Virginis Mariae, which is often quoted, JPII delivers a beautiful teaching on the rosary and provides a better explanation of what I'm trying to say:
"In this process of being conformed to Christ in the Rosary, we entrust ourselves in a special way to the maternal care of the Blessed Virgin. She who is both the Mother of Christ and a member of the Church...continually brings to birth children for the mystical Body of her Son. She does so through her intercession, imploring upon them the inexhaustible outpouring of the Spirit." (15)Mary rocks! I turned thirty today and, taking a look at everything I've been given, I can only kneel before Jesus and adore Him. Then when my knees are sore, I climb up into my Mother's lap and hug her around the waist crying with tears of love. I'll graduate nursing school this year, I'm married to a wonderful and beautiful woman, and I'm living a life that keeps me close to God.
So I can appreciate why our Bishop chooses to entrust those souls to Mary. When I allowed her, she showed me the path to her Son, and I wish this for others. Finally, through the rosary, Mary reminds me how much I love my own parents, who chose to bring me into this world thirty years ago.
Thank you, my glorious Queen, for guiding me to your Son. I pray that others may turn to your gentle guidance so that they may open their hearts to glorify the Lord. Amen.

Help with Expensify Notebook
Mindyl posted a topic in Evernote IntegrationsHi! I am new to both Expensify and Evernote. I linked my two accounts, and added receipts to my Expensify notebook in Evernote, but they are not showing up in Expensify. I have contacted the folks at Expensify, but have not received any help yet. Does anyone have any suggestions/help/suffered the same problem?
Expensify Syncing
OperateLA posted a topic in Evernote IntegrationsThe way Expensify receipts sync right now you can only sync 1 expensify account with 1 evernote account. Part of my business is bookkeeping and I use evernote and expensify to manage receipt level reporting for my clients. The problem is I have multiple clients and therefore have to log-in and log-out of evernote depending on which client's receipts I am dealing with. I can just load all receipts into 1 evernote's "expenisfy" notebook because it will sync to just 1 companies expensify account... It would be easier if with a business level subscription to evernote I could sync multiple expensify accounts to multiple evernote notebooks all under my one business evernote account. Is this feasible?
windows [Resolved] Evernote and Expensify Doesn't Work
TasmanRay posted a topic in Windows ArchiveEvernote is a terrific product but the partnership with Expensify needs to be examined. Product doesn't work as represented and they do not respond to any support requests. I would not tarnish Evernote's great image by continuing with the partnership.
Hi, hoping someone can help me. I'm new to using Evernote, and trying to test out what I can, and can't do with it. I'm using IFTTT, and trying to set up a 'workflow' for a particular type of receipt that gets emailed to me, into my Expensify folder in Evernote. What I've set up is - Supplier automatically emails receipt to my Gmail account IFTTT recipe to copy emails with that subject line into an Evernote folder Expensify then picks it up from there It all seems to be working, except from the fact that the body of the email isnt coming across. The header is correct, and I can insert fields into the body of the note from the recipe no problem, but the email body itself doesnt come across. The recipe I'm using is Gmail Search for "Receipt subject" Create a note Title Receipt {{ReceivedAt}} Body {{BodyPlain}} Notebook Expensify Tags IFTTT,Expenses,Expensify,Uber Can anyone offer any suggestions?

After the 25th snowfall, the Salang Pass was opened
Kabul-Afghanistan (GSP):
Reporter: Imran Khorasani
Salang is the route that connects Kabul with seven provinces in the north of the country, which is open on traffic after two days of closed dinner on Thursday.
The presidential campaign for the preservation of the health of the Salang said to the media: In the next few days, the effect of the snowfall of 25 snowstorms has been flooded in different parts of the highway, with a snow thickness of 1.5 meters in these areas.
This is despite the fact that in the course of the snow several months late, nearly 100 snowflakes have been flooded in different dimensions in this passage. The thickness of the snow is also more than 10 meters in the same flow.

Adele recently frees her new song "Hello" on October twenty-third, 2015. Adele fans are going crazy concerning it for many reasons.
Adele has not freed the other songs from her new album, 25. it'll be out on Gregorian calendar month twentieth. She hasn't free Associate in Nursing album in 3 years, therefore it's abundantly anticipated to mention the smallest amount. Her song has become a viral smash; she stony-broke the Vevo record for many views in some unspecified time in the future, beating out Taylor Swift, with 27.7 million views.

Fans and critics of the singer are sharing their approval of Shawn Mendes unexpected transformation into Timberlake, and I, too, am an admirer of the shift. The 19-year-old singer was initially pitched to the general public because the "new Justin Bieber" largely because of their common Canadian heritage, however as Mendes hits his stride, it's clear that he's way more Timberlake than Bieber. And that's a decent factor as a result of the general public wants a possibility from the person of the Woods narrative that Timberlake is presently pushing.
Where Timberlake is horny, Mendes is tender. wherever Timberlake moonwalks, Mendes strums. Timberlake is "woke," and Mendes is simply a Canadian teenager. very similar to Timothée Chal
ABC is that the third of the massive Four networks to mount a live musical—NBC was 1st with 2013's The Sound of Music, 2014's Peter Pan, and this year's wildly no-hit The expert named Colt Prattes, that ranked in 11.5 million viewers, followed by FOX who slayed with its live version of Grease, prima Julianne Hough, Aaron Tveit, and Vanessa Hudgens.
It's been a troublesome road for revamps of the implausibly authentic diversion, that was therefore powerful that it sparked a worldwide dance craze throughout the late '80s and created the movie's creator, Kenny Daniel Ortega, a social unit name.
In 2004, the story was unsuccessfully reimagined with a Cuban setting in Dirty Dancing: Cuban capital Nights and a TV series tried to recapture the magic of the flick in 1988 however unsuccessful.
The star has recently been teasing new music on social media and was noticed picture taking a music video in European country towards the top of last month.
They were apparently confirmed on Monday via the Facebook pages of Live Nation Israel and sandstone amusement, that is co-owned by Madonna's manager Guy Oseary.
They superimposed she would "perform 2 songs, together with a brand new song from her forthcoming album".
The singer contains a long association with Israel and launched her MDNA tour in Tel Aviv-Jaffa in 2012.
But a look at Eurovision might prove arguably, as different musicians – together with Pink Floyd's Roger Waters – are the line of work for the competition to be boycotted on human rights grounds.
The group then did 2 viral stunts. First, that they had The March King get out of his automobile to assist a granny to cross the street—making it look like Bieber had stopped traffic to perform an honest deed. A star-sighting tour bus noticed the act and gave it even a lot of credibleness. Then, the cluster shot the photos of Bieber intake the dish sideways.

Forgiveness is a huge topic in the bible. LIKE REALLY HUGE! In fact, it's why Christ came-so we could be forgiven and come into relationship with God as His children.
I wanted to look at this topic because it's something that I (and I'm sure many others) have to confront daily. Forgive the guy who cut you off on the highway, forgive the person who wronged you in the past, or forgive your spouse who did something to offend you…again. It's a daily and continual issue that we must deal with.
In the book of Matthew (Matthew 18:15-35) Jesus tells the parable of the…let's call him "TheUngratefulServantWhoCouldRepresentUsatAnytime". There was once a servant who owed his master the millions of dollars. The master was going to sell everything he had including his family in order to pay the debt. But the servant begged for mercy and the master forgave him his debt. Later we see the servant go look for a fellow servant who owed him a few dollars and demanded his money. The second servant begged for mercy. The first servant forgot the mercy that was showed to him and had the second servant thrown into jail. The master of the first servant found out and threw him into prison to be tortured until the debt had been repaid…which would have meant he would be tortured until death.
Looking at this parable it's easy to see that the first servant was ungrateful and out of his mind for not showing the second servant mercy. But it can be us at any moment in time if we do not forgive others for offenses.
The greek word for forgiveness is aphiemi. It basically means walking around with the unforgiven one roped to your back. Why would anyone want to walk around with a body tied to their back? Or two or three or even a car load of unforgiven people? You see the unforgiveness will hurt you more than the other person. You will be broken down, tired, and unable to run the race of life effectively because you (or I) have a butt load of unforgivenss weighing you down.
Today ask God to help you let go of any unforgivenss in your heart (I promise I will do it too) and feel the freedom that God wants you to feel not only for releasing those people off of your back but also to know the gift of forgiveness we have been given by God Almighty!
Have a GREAT DAY!!
Please comment! I love reading them!

Hummingbirds and Cannabis
This site best viewed in
Google Chrome
The one type of my imagery that has brought me the greatest recognition is my hummingbirds and cannabis shots. Thanks to all of
you who have shared my images via the web.
These images take a great deal of patience as well as time and effort setting them up and getting that perfect shot. I spend hours and
hours in a lounge chair laid back falling in and out of sleep attempting to capture the wonderful little bird at just the right angle , with just
the right lighting; then add to that for them to be "in focus".
One myth that accompanies my hummingbird images when others post or share
them is that the hummingbirds are "feasting on cannabis"..they are not. I will not
reveal just how my cameras are set up or the technique or lenses used, but I feel
safe in saying the birds do not ingest cannabis. I know that takes some of the fun
or feel good out of my images for some of you, I'm sorry. In my many many years
of doing this, I have very rarely seen them ever come in contact with the plant,
although the lenses I used and camera angles make it appear as if they are.
I have a couple feeders around my home and grow and the birds are only
searching for food just as they do with all the other flower varieties in my garden.
They fly up to the flowers and insect them very closely, when they don't see, or
possibly don't smell? the nectar or bugs they are seeking they move on to another
The image to the right is a perfect example of a bird doing just that. One day
when shooting pics with my headband on I noticed them flying up to it over and
over again doing the same thing-searching for food. Seeing the red, I can only
guess, is what attracted them to it long enough for me to capture this self portrait.
...above self portraits with my hummer friends and
me in my lounge chair in the back ground.

Nowadays there is a common practice among people globally to make purchases online. Some of them choose to buy online for the ease of convenience, others because some online platforms offer competitive prices. Statista states that there are over 1.79 billion global digital buyers worldwide in 2018 and predicts 2.14 billion people will buy services and goods online in 2021. This tendency makes businesses more likely to think or behave in the way of online trading software development and implementation that will help to gain more profit.
Trading online is a great solution to buy and sell financial products through the e-trading platform. Currently, e-trading platforms are an alternative to using traditional brick-and-mortar trading firms and organizations. These platforms are normally provided by web-based brokers and are available to every person who wants to make money from the market. In today's high-speed trading environment, e-trading platforms offer a real-time solution with a full range of trading services.
What is an e-trading platform?
E-trading platform is also known as an online trading platform, comprehensive software solution providing an ability to place trades and monitor accounts, create portfolios through financial intermediaries for investors, traders remotely and in real time. With the advent of e-trading, the investors are actively rushing towards it. A growing number of active investors are bypassing conventional brokerage offices entirely and doing all their trading online.
Essential differences between traditional trading and e-trading
While many people value the traditional broker-client relationship, there have been technological changes in the trading industry that has left people to shift from the traditional method to the online trading methods. There are some significant differences between both the trading methods and the one that is best for you will depend on what you prefer the most. Here is the table in which you can see some of the top differences between traditional and web-based trading to reach an informed decision based on your needs.
|E-trading mechanism provides full control and immediate execution
|Traditional mechanism does not ensure that control is provided.
|Funds can be easily transferred
|There is a need to deposit and withdraw funds each time of trading.
|A wide range of additional services like live terminals can be provided to their clients through e-trading platform
|Live terminals and other additional services are not applicable.
|It is possible to get advisory services throughout the platform.
|Offline investors, traders cannot get advisory services in real time.

|There is no possibility to open a separate account to invest in IPO's, mutual funds offline.

Also, you can take a look at some of the major characteristic of e-trading platforms below:
- combination of demand and supply on one web-resource;
- inexpensive transactions;
- operational aggregation of goods/services in accordance with market trends;
- direct income from the first buyer (user);
- easy handling when working with the client base;
- high level of security.
Key features of the e-trading platform
Below, we have put a list of major features that any e-trading platform should include. However, the issue is how to turn these features into a great e-trading platform that will work correctly, or in a similar vein, how to develop an e-trading system effectively. Let's take a closer look at the feature list below:
- User authorization&user profile. Opening up an e-trading platform, users should find authorization as a user-friendly, highly secured process. Also, a wide range of options like to login with an email address, mobile phone number or social accounts should be offered. All users' information is kept in their profiles and can be updatable and editable.
- Search. With this feature, users can find relevant information they are searching fast and easy.
- Portfolio updates. Users can track and monitor their portfolios with a filtering option in a real-time mode.
- Deposits. This feature is in great favor. Users can access detailed deposits information in a convenient way.
- Newsfeed. This feature highlights information that includes the latest news within the e-trading platform.
- Notifications&alerts. With this feature, users are knowledgeable about the current news within the e-trading platform. Messages can be sent to them at any time to let them know if there is an event or they need to take some actions.
- Transactions. Users can view dashboards, monitor, run reports about their transactions in the online mode.
- Quotes monitoring. This feature allows users to view/monitor all their quotes flow online.
- Sorting&filtering. With these built-in features, users can better navigate within e-trading system and display data in a readily understandable format.
- Placing trades. This feature allows users to view/edit their financial data placed within the e-trading platform.
- Analytics. Dashboards, charts, graphs, gauges, reports, and other visuals are invaluable tools for presenting information in a quick and easy to digest manner. They really help to illustrate the key financial data, analyze them to make an informed decision.
How to build an e-trading platform
Whatever choices are made, trading is a specific area, but it might be very profitable for businesses. Let's take a closer look at these factors that should be brought to notice:
- UX design. It is extremely important to increase user acquisition and user retention. When designing a system, its structure and user flows you should think through in order to avoid mistakes, create the perfect and coherent visual identity and give extensive attention to the usability goals, user characteristics, environment, tasks and workflow processes, and so on. Navigation within the e-trading system should provide users with a better orientation to promptly reach the desired section, quickly direct to the desired section, find and access the data you need.
- UI design. It focuses on styling the structure and content that are easy to access, understand, and use to facilitate users' actions. It brings together concepts from interaction design, visual design, and information architecture. All the interface elements such as colors, typography, graphics, images should be harmonious and used consistently across the e-trading software solution to evoke desired emotions.
- Backend development. Refers to databases/servers the user cannot see in the browser, involves the communicating with the server that provides data on requests. All information, like user profiles, payments transactions are stored in the created database. Backend developers request the server to display required data stored in the database. The following technologies are used: Python, .Net, PHP, SQL-databases - mysql, postgres, sql server, and NoSQL databases such as MongoDB; RESTful Services, APIs, etc.
- Testing. QA engineers with a great knowledge of testing processes and a "customer-focus" vision who will work on assuring the quality and integrity of features&functionality, checking them to ensure the e-trading platform operates correctly before going live are required. QA engineers verify that all the operations perform according to specification and all internal components have been adequately tested.

Benefits of the e-trading platform
Below we have identified some aspects of why online platforms for trading are so beneficial. Let's read about them below:
- Applicability. The online trading market evolves rapidly, providing an avenue for businesses to profit. Nowadays, you can create an e-trading solution with a seamless user interface and quite extensive functionality that will help you build wealth at the very start.
- Profitability. E-trading platforms allow owners to reduce costs. There is no need to lease the premises or hire additional staff to run a business. You should just create an e-trading software solution and then promote it.
- Availability. E-trading provides a broad spectrum of available financial solutions. You can find exactly what you need whether you are a professional or individual trader.
- High level of control. Users can operate on the exchange, view all the actions, and control in a snap from their e-trading dashboard.
- Oriented on user needs. E-trading platforms can offer highly personalized services to users through an understanding of their goals, philosophy and risk tolerance that increases user engagement.
- 24/7 accessibility. You can access your e-trading portal whenever and wherever you are to perform the transactions or take any other actions.
- Lower transaction charges. Users conduct transactions within the e-trading platform themselves from their accounts thereby obviating the need to hire additional staff to handle orders, etc.
Bottom line
The more mature trading environment becomes, the more particular about the quality of the products and services consumers become. That makes businesses offer more specialized advisory and financial services to serve consumers better. We, at DDI Development, have proven experience in building a diverse range of web and mobile solutions for different business verticals. If you are thinking of e-trading platform, let us know and we can turn your idea into a real software.

How to Get to Heaven
We are all sinners"For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God" - Romans 3:23
"As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:" - Romans 3:10
You cannot get there your way"There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death" - Proverbs 16:25
God loves you and made a way for you"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." - John 3:16
Jesus is the only way"Jesus says, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." - John 14:6
Jesus is waiting for you"All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.." - John 6:37
Right now, you can receive Jesus Christ as Savior just by talking to Him.
In your own words, pray something like this from your heart:
God, I recognize that I have sinned against You. Please forgive me! I believe that Jesus Christ died and rose again to pay the price for my sin.
Jesus, come into my heart and cleanse me from sin. Right now I place my faith in you as my Lord and Savior.
If you prayed to God, and you were sincere, then according to John 1:12: (But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name) you've been "born again" into the family of God!

In his movie "Expelled," Ben Stein challenged Richard Dawkins about the remarkable phenomenon of life on planet earth: how could life arise given the sheer magnitude of its improbability? Dawkins suggested aliens possibly deposited life on earth.
Dawkins, we recall, is an atheist, a scientist directed only by provable facts. Yet he's willing to posit the source of earthly life to a concept lacking any evidence.
... So where are they?
Those were the conclusive words of physicist Enrico Fermi after quickly hashing out his own thought experiment one day at the Los Alamos National Laboratory. Evidently, Area 51 was the hot topic of the day, and he and some colleagues were talking about aliens on their way to lunch. Fermi went silent for a time, until midway through lunch he proclaimed, "Where are they?"
During the intervening silence, Fermi calculated the high probability that a vast number of alien species should exist. Also, statistically speaking, a high subset of them would have evolved millions of years ahead of earth's schedule. That means there should be a considerable number of alien species with a head start on things like cross-galaxy travel. The galaxy should be teeming with aliens. Yet there is nothing. Where are they?
Fermi's thought experiment is dubbed "The Fermi Paradox," a philosophically sterile phrase avoiding several very big and very pink elephants in the room.
... In the movie "Interstellar," wormholes, black holes, event horizons, particle theory, and the theory of relativity conspire to make a situation where someone talks to himself from the future through his bedroom wall. Theoretical physicist Kip Thorne signed off on the scientific merits of the movie, to the applause of pop scientist Neil deGrasse Tyson. Thorne is an atheist and Tyson insists faith and science are irreconcilable.
Or again, the recent release of "Arrival" presents a seven-legged, tree-trunk-like alien species with a highly advanced method of communication. As if from a Jackson Pollock school of design, the odd look and transmundane behavior of the aliens are about what we'd expect given the random workings of evolution.
Putting it all together, theoretical science grants that an extraterrestrial heptapod could work through worm holes and the other vagaries of physics to transcend time and space in its quest to help humanity, a humanity it perhaps brought into existence in the first place. One imagines Dawkins, Tyson, and Thorne would say, "Sure, why not? There's just so much we don't know about alien life and what's out there."
... we suspect Dawkins et. al. would grant any alien scenario so long as it doesn't involve a tri-conscious being making periodic manifestations among ancient Semitic peoples about 3,000 years ago, which in a rather singular case used as its avatar a first-century personage born in the days when Quirinius was governor of Syria.
... the aliens arising from the imagination of modern science fiction, because they have no affiliation whatsoever with the evidence at hand, have a little more than the whiff of blind faith associated with them. Unlike say, Christian faith, where powerful objective evidence creates an ongoing intellectual crisis calling one to abandon subjective thinking, blind faith in something lacking any objective basis leaves only the subject's imagination as the focus of query.
... in the end, the phantasmic reality of aliens on the silver screen only serves as an escape from facing the Fermi Paradox, reminding us to what extent people will go to prop up the delusions of modernity.
Where are the aliens? They don't exist, because if they did, they'd be all over the place. The fact they don't exist tosses a huge Molotov conundrum into modernist epistemology.

Trigger Finger
(Stenosing Tenosynovitis; Volar Flexor Tenosynovitis)
Tendons connect bones to muscles in the body. Flexor tendons of the thumb and fingers pull the fingers into a fist. The tendons are enclosed in a synovial sheath. When this sheath becomes inflammed it is called trigger finger.
Usually, tendons slide easily through the sheath as the finger moves. In the case of trigger finger, the synovial sheath is swollen. The tendon cannot move easily. This causes the finger to remain in a flexed (bent) position. In mild cases, the finger may be straightened with a pop. In severe cases, the finger becomes stuck in the bent position. Usually this condition can easily be treated. Contact your doctor if you think you may have trigger finger.
Trigger Finger
Often, the cause of trigger finger is unknown. However, many cases of trigger finger are caused by one of the following:
Overuse of the hand from repetitive motions
- Computer operation
- Machine operation
- Repeated use of hand tools
- Playing musical instruments
Inflammation caused by a disease
- Rheumatoid arthritis]]>
- ]]>Gout]]>
- ]]>Hypothyroidism]]>
Risk Factors
The following factors increase your chance of developing trigger finger:
- Age: 40 to 60
- History of repetitive hand motions for work or play
- Sex: female
History of certain diseases:
- Rheumatoid arthritis
- Gout
- Hypothyroidism
If you experience any of these do not assume it is due to trigger finger. Some of these symptoms may be caused by other health conditions. If you experience any one of them for a period of time, see your physician.
- Finger or thumb stiffness
- Finger, thumb, or hand pain
- Swelling or a lump in the palm
- Catching or popping when straightening the finger or thumb
- Finger or thumb stuck in bent position
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. The physical exam may include:
- Asking you to move the affected finger or thumb
- Feeling the hand and fingers
For severe cases, your doctor may refer you to a hand specialist.
Talk with your doctor about the best plan for you. The goal of treatment is to reduce swelling and pain. This will allow the tendon to move freely in the sheath. Treatment options include the following:
Stopping movement in the finger or thumb is often the best treatment for mild cases of trigger finger. A brace or splint may be used. Rest may be combined with stretching the muscle tendon unit.
Several medications are used to treat tenosynovitis. These include:
Severe cases of trigger finger may not respond to medications. In this case, surgery may be used to release the tendon from a locked position. This surgery is usually performed on an outpatient basis. It only requires a small incision in the palm of the hand.
If you are diagnosed with trigger finger, follow your doctor's instructions.

Global de-dollarization has been active for years as countries like China, Russia, Iran and others find ways to insulate themselves from US sanctions. This shift towards other assets and currencies for global trade will shape a new world order in the decades to come. Full time MBA student and CFA candidate, Yelian Garcia, analyzes the decline of the dollar, and how other countries are fighting back against dollar hegemony.
The United States is waging economic warfare against one tenth of the world's countries, who have a cumulative population of nearly 2 billion people and a GDP of more than $15 trillion; these countries include Russia, Iran, Zimbabwe, Cuba, Sudan, Congo, Venezuela, Myanmar, and more. The reasons for enacting sanctions on these countries is, from a U.S. perspective, extremely diverse. From human rights violations to nuclear trade and unfair trade practices, it seems like the United States has a diminishing list of allies. From Russia to the EU, as well as China, South Korea, Japan and Turkey, everyone is facing the unprecedented decision to apply tariffs on trade. In Trump's mind, this is the only way to balance a trade deficit that has now reached more than 500 billion dollars.
America's global supremacy has been made possible by its control over global finance and the acceptance of the dollar as the world's reserve currency; the status of which has anchored the global financial system since World War II. Yelian Garcia explains that any transaction done in US dollars, or using a US bank, automatically brings the trading parties under American legal jurisdiction. This power is useful leverage for the United States, as not many companies or banks can afford to give up on the U.S. market or be denied access to their financial institutions. In response to this hegemonic hold on the monetary system, both China and Russia are taking measures to reduce their reliance on the greenback and are urging trading partners to ditch the dollar in their bilateral trade in favour of indigenous currencies.
The Effects of De-dollarization
De-dollarization has been enacted for dozens of reasons and has had some interesting effects. For example, Vladimir Putin supports removing the dollar as he back a tentative de-dollarization plan to protect his country from future US sanctions. Putin explained that Russia cannot support the US dollar-denominated finance system due to violating WTO rules and imposing unilateral sanctions. Additionally, he explained that a dollar monopoly is unsafe and dangerous for the global economy. Once Russia clears its books of US dollarized debt, what country will be next to diversify their US debt exposure risk?
All that being said, the overall positive state of the US economy and the remarkable strength of the dollar still make it the most highly traded and valued currencies globally. However, given the global push towards ending dollar hegemony, thwarting their efforts should be Washington's top national priority.
