The SAS Certified Professional Program was launched by SAS Institute, Inc. in 1999 to recognize users who can demonstrate an in-depth understanding of SAS software. The program consists of five certifications across a number of functional areas. There are several SAS courses which prepare users for the certification exams. To date many programmers have taken these courses, some experienced users just take the exams, and there are many other SAS savvy professionals who are experienced but not SAS certified! This paper will review the benefits and limitations of the Certification Program for new SAS users as well as those who are more experienced and investigate whether it meets the needs of the user community. Why get certified? What's in it for you? The impact of the Certification Program on SAS jobs and its importance in industry vs. work experience and other SAS training courses will also be explored from an end user's perspective.
In the last decade there has been a dramatic increase in the number of companies (Microsoft, Novell, Lotus) offering certification as part of their business partner program. In line with this growing trend the SAS Certified Professional Program was introduced by SAS Institute at SUGI in April of 1999. Since being introduced over 6 years ago there have been over 5000 professionals certified across the globe in a number of different industries. Although most people know that SAS certification exists many are still unclear about the value of having this credential. This paper will provide a comprehensive review of the SAS certified professional program including the various training routes available to prepare for the programming exams. This review is based on my own personal experience as well as information obtained from other users. The benefit of the certification program will also be explored in terms of its current value to employers and employees and future impact on jobs. In the last few years there have been several very good presentations given by SAS Institute Inc. and there is also quite a lot of information on the web. This paper offers an independent review of the SAS Certified Professional Program (with particular emphasis on the Base Programming credential) from an end user's perspective.
As a SAS programmer or technical manager working in industry or academia you are probably aware of the available educational tools which would increase your SAS knowledge and enhance the career of your employees. SAS certification is one such qualification which is available to users today. Since its original inception the certified professional program has undergone several transformations. The exams were originally based on a particular SAS version however individuals are now evaluated at a job role level rather than a particular SAS release (1). The SAS certified professional program currently offers five globally recognized certification tracks which are designed to test the skill set and knowledge base of SAS users across a number of specific areas. There are two SAS programming certifications (Base and Advanced) and three specialty tracks which focus on Web Development and Warehouse Technology. Each track requires successful completion of one or more certification exams before a programmer can become fully certified. The following table provides a brief summary of the five certifications that are currently available along with the exams you need to take in order to complete a particular track:
|SAS Certified Base Programmer
|SAS Base Programming
|SAS Certified Advanced Programmer
SAS Base Programming
SAS Advanced Programming
|SAS Certified WebAF Developer: Server side
SAS Advanced Programming
SAS WebAF Server-side Application Development
|SAS Certified Warehouse Development Specialist
SAS Advanced Programming
SAS Warehouse Technology
SAS Warehouse Development Specialist Concepts
|SAS Certified Warehouse Architect
SAS Warehouse Technology
SAS Warehouse Architect Concepts
As you can see most of the tracks (apart from the Base Programmer certification) require completion of more than one exam. Completion of the Base Programmer certification is probably the best place to start as it is the easiest tracks. According to SAS you should have at least one year of programming experience before taking the Base Programming exam and a minimum of three years programming and data management experience before taking the SAS Advanced Programming exam. The three specialty tracks require more detailed knowledge in their specific functional area along with several years work experience. It is important to note that programming experience in the specific functional area is essential before taking any of the above exams. Full details of all the above certification tracks can be found on the following website http://support.sas.com/certify/. This site also contains a whole host of other useful information regarding SAS certification and training, and includes a full list of all the possible SAS Institute courses you can take to prepare for an exam. I would encourage readers who are thinking about taking any of the above certification exams to visit this site first.

BWW Reviews: Experience the Phenomenal Musicianship that is Equinox Theatre's COMPANY!
Equinox Theatre Company presents Sondheim's classic relationship musical, COMPANY (Book by George Furth, Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim) playing now through July 19th at the Bug Theatre. On the night of his 35th birthday, confirmed bachelor Robert contemplates his unmarried state. Through a series of hilarious vignettes, we are introduced to "those good and crazy people," his married friends, as Robert weighs the pros and cons of married life.
"The unexamined life is not worth living!"
Over the past several years I have been a loyal supporter and patron of the diverse talent that is Equinox Theatre. They have given their audiences a wide array of unique shows; some powerful and dramatic, others campy and fun, and a couple that needed a bit of improvement. I am proud to say that COMPANY is their finest production to date and a spectacular show of sensational talent that is a highlight of this summer season and should not be missed! This is my favorite Stephen Sondheim musical and his best work (in my humble opinion). This amazing ensemble elevated this classic with their thoughtful and passionate portrayals of their roles. The only two minor alterations that I observed during this fantastic show would be to tighten up the choreography a little bit (but that is easily forgiven with those fierce voices and memorable performances); and have an alternate, yet gratifying ending. Since she has already won over our hearts with Another Hundred People, I have always secretly wished that the final scene featured Bobby blowing out his birthday candles with Marta. This small change would bring a satisfying smile to all the audiences faces and leave them departing with a sense of hope. Outstanding musical numbers include - Company, The Little Things You do Together, You Could Drive a Person Crazy, Another Hundred People, Getting Married Today, Side by Side by Side, The Ladies Who Lunch, and Being Alive.
Remember - That's what it's really about -COMPANY! !! Believe me, this is one show this summer that you do not want to miss! Equinox Theatre's COMPANY is mesmerizing audiences now through July 19 on Friday and Saturday evenings at 7:30 PM. Performances will be at The Bug Theatre: 3654 Navajo Street in Denver and tickets are available online at www.EquinoxTheatreDenver.com or by calling 720-984-0781.

Spanish-language reporter released from immigration custody
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — A Spanish-language reporter who has been facing deportation since his arrest 15 months ago while covering an immigration protest in Tennessee was released Thursday from custody as his case proceeds.
Manuel Duran was released from an Alabama detention center on a $2,000 bail set by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Southern Poverty Law Center attorney Gracie Willis said.
"I feel like I'm reborn," Duran said in a statement released by the center. "I am happy for this day. It has been a very difficult time but thanks to God, this is the day I waited for."
The El Salvador native was arrested while covering an April 3, 2018, rally protesting immigration policies in Memphis. Protesters had blocked a street in front a downtown courthouse on the 50th anniversary of the Rev. Martin Luther King. Jr's assassination.
Protest-related charges were subsequently dropped, but Duran was picked up by immigration agents after he was released from jail and detained. He had been held in facilities in Louisiana and Alabama since his arrest.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has said Duran was taken into custody because he had a pending deportation order from 2007 after failing to appear for a court hearing. Duran has said he did not receive a notice to appear in court with a time and date on it. Immigration activists and journalism organizations have spoken against his detention.
The Board of Immigration Appeals reopened Duran's case this week. Lawyers are seeking asylum, arguing that conditions have worsened for journalists in El Salvador and he could be in danger if he returns. The immigration board acknowledged that conditions for reporters have changed for the worse in Duran's home country since his initial deportation order, Willis said
"We are certainly very excited for him to be released from detention," Willis said. "It's taken 15 months of very active litigation to get him here."
Duran is from El Salvador and he has lived in Memphis for years. He ran the Memphis Noticias online news outlet and reported on the effects of U.S. immigration policies on the Hispanic community. Duran's lawyers have said he came to the United States without permission in 2006 after receiving death threats related to reporting on corruption in El Salvador.
U.S. Rep. Steve Cohen, a Memphis Democrat, said he was troubled Duran was arrested while covering a "legitimate public protest."
"He was a well-known journalist and I hope he wasn't targeted for that reason," Cohen said in a statement.
Memphis police have denied that Duran was targeted because of coverage that had been critical of law enforcement.
The 11th Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta has granted Duran an indefinite stay from deportation as his case is argued. Willis said she will ask an immigration court in Atlanta for his next hearing to be moved to Memphis, where he was returning Thursday.

This paper is an attempt to identify and quantify the subsidies paid to Gunns and the logging industry in Tasmania. Drawing upon broad community input via the online newspaper www.tasmaniantimes.com , it was compiled by Andrew Bent and edited by TAP.
Summary of findings
1. Taxpayer funding diverted to support pulp mill and logging
One time capital costs = $399m (so far)
Ongoing taxpayer funding support = $360m/yr
Cost if mill operates for 30 years = $10.8bn (30 years x $360m/year)
Total over 30 years = $11.2bn
2. Costs to the community
Property prices - one time losses = $2bn
Opportunity costs to community = more than $1.1bn/yr
Total over 30 years = $35bn
It is pretty clear that the level of subsidies is very high, particularly for an activity that generates so few jobs per $million invested, and that produces such small returns from valuable resources. It has been pointed out that just the water for the mill alone, at 26 GL/yr, would be worth $2.6 bn/yr if it were cleaned to drinking standards and sold at 10c/litre, so that's an interesting point of comparison.
Overall, the forestry industry appears to remove resources worth about 10 units and return about 1 unit in exchange, such a poor return that they need major subsidies to keep going. This is played out each time they chip a celery top/myrtle/blackwood tree worth $1,000 and produce about $100 worth of woodchips from it.
Reliability of the estimates
Because of the lack of transparency by governments it has been necessary to make a number of assumptions about what each of the resources etc. are actually worth. In addition there are two major types of cost: direct and indirect. Estimated opportunity costs have been included in indirect costs to try to keep the job relatively simple.
It is not possible to distinguish the subsidies provided for the pulp mill from other subsidies provided to the logging industry in Tasmania. Prices are also difficult to calculate because the government is keeping the figures relatively secret and because much of the cost relief goes totally unreported e.g. costs of roads and bridges.
This is a due to the lack of reporting on the magnitude of the costs to the public, coupled with the division of subsidies into so many different categories, governments and portfolios. In addition the industry enjoys multiple exclusions from laws and regulations that apply to everyone else. Thus their costs are significantly lower in any case.
With those many caveats, this list is the best effort by the public in figuring out what the total subsidies to Gunns actually are. They have not been discounted in any way as they do represent something close to the amount of money being lost, foregone (no revenues collected) or provided directly to the industry. There are no complex formulae or economic costs eg. discounted cash flow, just a listing and totalling of everything going to forestry.
While some people when writing in the Tasmanian Times have included such things as the "Auspine Deal" in their list of subsidies it has not been possible to incorporate some of these suggestions without an idea of the moneys involved.
The production from forests and plantations has been calculated on the basis of an estimated 200 tonnes per hectare per year.
One-sided legislative support for forestry interests
Government exemptions give forestry a massive edge over all other industries competing for the same resources. Forestry industries are exempt from the:
- Land Use and Planning Act
- Environmental Protection Act
- Freedom of Information Act
Public services that the Lennon government has said they cannot afford include:
- health
- public housing
- education services
- disability services
- road & rail funding
- the environment
- nature conservation e.g. the devil tumours, Macquarie Island, chytrid disease in frogs, protecting threatened species like orange-bellied parrots etc.
The subsidies
1. Logging operations
Building logging roads and bridges via Forestry Tasmania - $30m/yr (est).
Maintaining public roads and bridges via local councils - $20m/yr (est).
Forestry Tasmania research and services that benefit Gunns - $15m/yr (est).
Diesel fuel rebate of 18% of their fuel costs – unknown.
Subtotal for logging operations
Annual cost = greater than $65m/yr.
2. Resource supplies & transportation
Lost value from forest trees - $80m/year. ($15/t ex Forestry Tasmania versus an estimated value as carbon sink of $35/t and as firewood at $50/t. Gunns plans to use about 4 million tonnes/yr).
Trees from plantations - no estimate. ($32/t ex Forestry Tasmania versus cost of $34/t in Gunns' prospectus').
Federal government Managed Investment Scheme subsidy for plantation land acquisition and management - $80 m/year. (About $3200/ha at 25 000 ha/yr).
Water used by tree plantations - $16m/yr. (Plantation estate of about 250,000 ha uses 2Ml/ha/yr more than native forest or grassland at a value foregone of $32/ML)
Water from Lake Trevallyn proposed for pulp mill operations - $182 000/year. (Gunns to use 26 – 40 GL/yr but at a cost of $7/ML cheaper than Esk Water; $25 ML to Gunns versus $32 ML to Esk Water. Note; the value of irrigation water is around $100/ML.)
One time cost of pine transported to Scottsdale - $4m.
Subtotal for resource supplies and transportation:
One time cost = $4m;
Annual cost = $176m/yr.
3. Provision of infrastructure
Federal government railways - $120m capital.
State government pipeline (to be confirmed) - $100 m capital. (Estimates vary from $60m to $200m).
Federal government East Tamar Highway upgrade - $80m capital.
Federal government West Tamar Highway upgrade - $60m capital.
Meander Dam construction component - $16m capital. (Gunns 40% share of total cost).
Maintenance of infrastructure listed above - $19m/yr (at 5% of capital per year).
Subtotal infrastructure:
One time costs = $376m;
Annual cost = $19m/yr.
4. Project promotion, planning and review
Pulp mill promotional bus - $1m. (Est one time cost)
Pulp M ill Taskforce - $6m. (Est one time cost)
Federal grant for IIS development - $5m. (One time cost)
State support for mill suppliers - $2m. (One time cost)
Federal/state RPDC costs - $3m. (Est one time cost)
MLC pulp mill tour - $70 000. (7 MLCs at est of $10 000 each. One time cost)
Gunns lobbyists fares/expenses to lobby MLCs - $50 000. (One time cost)
Sweco Pic 'assessment' - $500 000. (One time cost)
ITS Global assessment - $300 000. (One time cost)
Subtotal project promotion, planning and review
One time costs = $14m.
5. Direct grants to logging industry
Community Forest Agreement and other federal grants - $100m/yr. (Estimated total over 10 years of $1bn, ie. an average $100m/yr.)
Subtotal for logging industry grants
Annual cost = $100m/yr.
6. Damage and losses to communities and tourism
Health effects from overspray - cost unknown.
Health effects of toxins in drinking water - cost unknown.
Deaths and illnesses from micro-particulate pollution - cost unknown.
Costs to public of preparing submissions 600 submissions – cost unknown. (Est of $200 to $5,000 each).
Property devaluation suffered by community - $2bn. (One time cost, 40 000 houses worth an average of $250 000 each at 20% loss = $2bn).
Loss of agricultural production - $1bn+/yr. (Food production including downstream processing from 450 000 ha is worth $2.5bn/year so conversion of another 200,000 ha to plantations would cut income by over $1bn/year).
Loss to tourism - $100m/year. (10% of total Tasmanian tourism industry worth about $1bn/year).
Subtotal for damage and losses to communities and tourism:
One time costs = $2bn;
Annual cost = $1.1bn/yr.
7. Carbon trading losses
Carbon trading losses - $165m/year. ($30/t x 5.5 mt/year).
ML = Megalitre (1000 000 litres)
GL = Gigalitre (1000 Ml)
mt = million tonnes
ha = Hectare
bn = billion
m = million

It snowed - we got about 4 inches of fluffy dry snow. Not good for snowman making, just good for mud. I generally work by the school schedule on days like this. If school is two hours late, I at least wait for the sun to come up so I can see what is happening in front of me on the road. If school is closed, I take it under advisement, but usually go in, slowly. Well, today when school finally went from late to closed I couldn't see across the yard. The snow was coming down hard! I waited a while longer and it wasn't really clearing up, so I made the call to skip the work day. I have plenty of vacation time, nobody was relying on me for anything today, why get out on those roads?
Ok, so I do know how to drive on snow. I just don't trust the other people out there. Of course once I had committed to not going to work the weather cleared up and though it never warmed up, there really was no reason Not to go in to work, but since it was already 3 hours into my regular schedule and would be 4 hours before I got there, skip it.
Instead I pressed the fact that Fabulous Hubby needed new tires on his car and used my research skills to find some at Sam's that didn't have any negative comments. Michelin X Radials in case you are wondering. The GY Assurance series have great sounding features, but plenty of bad comments. Could just be that more people have them and most people only bother to comment on something if their situation turned out bad, but I went with theMichelins anyway. Of course while we waited we did some shopping. Glad we didn't have my truck, that treadmill would have fit in the back very nicely, but I can use the one at work. I am sort of afraid to buy one, I figure I would not use it as much as I should. So when we finally escaped that store we came home and I helped FH feed the animals. Well, I chased the cows away from the barn while the door was open and fed the dog. I took lots of pictures though!
Winters around here are not as much work as what I remember from Minnesota, Dad had a lot more animals for one thing, but what we have here is enough to keep us busy. FH would like more cows and land, but for right now we are good.
When feeding the animals the first thing he has to do it get dressed for the weather, and then get the tractor.
During the winter this tractor has a bale unroller on the 3-point hitch. It spears the bale from both sides and then you can pick it up and haul it out to the field.
Once the bale is in the field he cuts all of the strings off and collects the pieces so that the cows don't eat them. One long string could cause a lot of trouble in a cow's tummy.
Then he drives around with the bale unrolling from the spears. He has to make sure he has the bale picked up on the correct side though. It is like a roll of toilet paper, if he tries to unroll it from the wrong side it just keeps going around and around.
So you might notice the tractor is pointed to the left in the first pictue and the bale was unrolled to the right. He had to set it down and move around the other side to pick it up again. This was the second bale he put out today. Most of the cows are munching on the first one already.
The dogs took advantage of the time I stood still to start playing. They seem brutal sometimes, but they don't really hurt each other. Jake does try to stay out of the way though.
Unless he wants to beat up on Shadow anyway. The other three have a lot of hair that gets pulled on and he just doesn't fit in with that game. Jake is fast though. When he gets them chasing him, watch out! They are coming through.
Shadow is on the left, Poochy is in the back, Gabby (Shadow's mom) is in front, and Jake is on the right.
Next on the agenda was feeding the steers named Dinner (the big one) and Supper. They are on a hay and grain diet for a while before they meet the plate.
Yes we name them and crudely at that. These particular names get used every other year or so. No need coming up with something special.
Speaking of names - Gordy, Babe, Porky, Wilbur, and Miss Piggy - any idea what type of animal is getting fed in this lot?
Next were the weaned calves.
There are just a few of them right now so they get a couple of squares off of the four wheeler. Bales I mean, not the guys feeding them. haha.
Where was Jake during this part of the feeding?
Keeping his butt warm in the truck that's where.
Last but not least is Poochy. She was Grandma's dog and now I am her best buddy.
We like to know where she is at night, mostly to keep her from barking under our bedroom window, so she has her own yard over at the trailer. She doesn't usually put up too much of a fuss about being locked up. She gets her dinner and then pops into her cave under the porch. FH lets her out again in the morning on his way to work.
Some left over pictures show the winter scenes that I ran across.
I usually like to run that far field.
Looks a little chilly today.
I was trying to catch FH's shadow in the still water of the pond. I did, but the focus is on the fence. Kind of interesting anyway.
So that is my hooky day. Very expensive and cold.

Salmon Berry Travel & Tours recommends travel insurance provided by TravelSafe Insurance. Our recommendation is based on positive guest feedback. In particular, the experience of one Salmon Berry guest is instructive:
Our guest had booked the vacation of a lifetime and the ultimate Alaska package. She had to cancel the trip a week before it began due to unfortunate circumstances.
She later told us that within ten minutes of phone time her claim was processed in full. She was very pleased with TravelSafe Insurance's immediate and empathetic response. Getting a refund for her trip was the last thing she wanted to think about, and TravelSafe Insurance took care of her needs and concerns immediately.
Packing the proper clothing for your Alaska winter vacation is a big part of a great experience. Read more for Salmon Berry approved cold weather gear.READ MORE
No cars, no sounds of the city, nothing. It was a peaceful way to disconnect, even if it was only a one hour sled ride.READ MORE

Tulum nightlife has a fantastic array of experiences that goes well past the great restaurants and spots along the beach. Don't get us wrong, we love the options on the beach road but there is a lot more to consider.
Places like ZINE, Mojito Batey and Cantina Nawal are great options to consider on your next trip to Tulum!
One of our greatest recommendations for your Tulum experience is to visit the town at night. A short cab ride will get you to town from your condo or hotel. After you arrive ask where the best places are. Mojito Batey is very easy to find, and so are a number of options in Orion Street. But don't stop there! Great food, drinks and friendships await to be discovered in your Tulum visit.
Tulum nightlife is a lot more than sea and sand.
Fresh cane juice, music, and generous amounts of rum will take your trip to a whole new level! The prices are reasonable and are sure to provide you with more than just sun and beach.
Depending on how early you come, you can catch the Batey staff squeezing the fresh cane juice that will provide the authentic ingredients for their famous mojito.
Our favorite, is the ginger mojito, but passionfruit, original, or Mayan if you really like spice are all great!

For the 13th issue of Lone Wolf I wanted to explore diversity in all it's forms, giving a voice to women in all stages of life. Roxanne Gould is a successful model and entrepreneur, she was among the first models who embraced their grey hair in an industry that's obsessed with youth and upholding strict beauty standards. For this editorial, and corresponding interview, I wanted to present a modern, edgy and fashion-forward woman who commands the respect of everyone she meets. The clothes were kept simple and structured, while the makeup remained minimal. Photography by Dave Brown. Casting and creative direction by me.

America's premier author of provocave ficon delivers the dramac finale to a series set within the inner circle of glamour, sex and privilege.
When it came to playing games, my lover Jax was a master strategist. He pulled strings behind the closed doors of D.C.'s most powerful polical players, and somehow sll found me to nearly sideline my career. What he didn't know was that when I didn't like the rules, I threw them out and made my own. I wasn't going to let Jax get away with it. I wasn't going to let him get away at all.
I loved Jax enough that it was impossible to give up. Jax loved me enough that giving up was the only end he'd consider. He didn't think I could swim with the sharks. It was enrely my pleasure to show him that I'd already dived in…

PeopleNet Enables Increased Mobility with Video Intelligence Mobile App
PeopleNet Enables Increased Mobility with Video Intelligence Mobile App
MINNEAPOLIS — Dec. 20, 2017 — PeopleNet® (www.peoplenetonline.com), a Trimble (NASDAQ: TRMB) Company and leading provider of fleet mobility technology, today announced the release of Video Intelligence Mobile, a web-based companion app of its industry-leading Video Intelligence solution.
Compatible with both Android and iOS-powered devices, Video Intelligence Mobile gives users the ability to view accident footage immediately, as well as easily share specific videos with others in the organization.
"By creating a mobile app for our Video Intelligence solution, we aim to provide users access to valuable Video Intelligence data everywhere they go, every time they need it," said Jim Angel, vice president of PeopleNet's Video Intelligence Solutions. "At its core, Video Intelligence captures accident footage that could potentially exonerate fleets and their drivers, while also providing a streamlined process for recognizing and coaching at-risk drivers."
Video Intelligence Mobile fully integrates with the PeopleNet Fleet Manager (PFM), an online web portal for back-office communications and carrier fleet management functions to provide 24/7 mobile access to the Video Intelligence platform.
The Video Intelligence solution utilizes backup, forward-facing, and left- and right-view cameras to create a near 360-degree view around the cab and trailer of the truck. This unparalleled view gives fleets visual information in the event of an accident as well as provides enhanced visibility into driver behavior for coaching opportunities to avoid future accidents.
PeopleNet's Video Intelligence was the first solution on the market that is fully integrated with a fleet management system. PeopleNet's Onboard Event Recording (OER) allows video to be triggered by company-controlled settings, including sudden acceleration or hard braking.

Juicy, organic apples from the Arno valley are slow-cooked with sweet spices and Chianti red wine, becoming a dense, 'Chianti-style' chutney, tailor-made for beef, pork, lamb, or cheese plates. Great for freshening sauces and glazes as well. Exquisite painted on roasted chicken or holiday turkey!

Butter Chicken
3 tablespoons of Earth Balance margarine
1 onion
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
4 small cloves of crushed garlic
1 teaspoon ginger powder
1/4 teaspoon garam masala
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon red chili powder
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 package Yves veggie tenders, chicken flavor (or equivalent)
1/4 cup sunflower seed butter
398mL (14onz) can diced tomatoes with juice
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/3 cup Silk brand soy coffee creamer
Finely chop the onions. Heat a large saucepan or frying pan and melt the E.B. until it is frothy. Add the onions and the cinnamon to the pan and fry lightly. When the onions are soft stir in the crushed garlic. Then add the ginger, garam masala, turmeric, chili and coriander, and sauté over a medium heat. The spices are fried first to release their maximum flavor and this really enhances the dish. Add the chicken and sauté stirring constantly. Scoop in the sunflower seed butter, tomatoes and tomato paste. Mix thoroughly. Cover and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes (you may need to add a little water). Add the coffee creamer and heat through. Serve on brown basmati rice.
I would like to share that 'MOTI MAHAL' is a chain of resturants in India amd pakistan and they are considered as the inventors of BUTTER CHICKEN, they cooked it in 19th centurary. Thank you
Totally LOVE this recipe! It's insanely flavorful and has become one of my comfort foods.
Thank you for providing this recipe, it was awesome. My meat eating husband loves butter chicken so I decided to give this a try and he loved it. He thought it tasted just like the meat version. I have never had the meat version, all I know is this is now in my favourites list and I will be making it again and again.
This was amazing!!! The only change I made was substituting the creamer with 1/3 cup plain soy yogurt, as was suggested. Turned out great!!! I will most certainly be making this again, and again, and again. :)
This was absolutely delicious! I'm really surprised this recipe hasn't gotten more attention than it has, this is one of the tastiest things ever!
I made a few variations, nothing big enough to tell about. I had bhindi masala on the side, YUM!!!
Everyone needs to make this for real. Thank you for posting this, it is definitely going to be a regular in the CK household!

Big Ed's pizza in Oak Ridge Tennessee was investigated the night of 5-22-09. The following are EVPs which were obtained during that investigation.l Note that because of equipment such as exhaust fans running, the background noise was high. Thus the majority of these EVPs have had either/or hiss and noise reduction done on them.
Sean's EVPs
I'm Judy King - Marshall asked if Big Ed was there right now, and he got a response (picked up on Sean's recorder), "I'm Judy King".
Brett Hullaby - Sean asked, "Would you please tell me what your name is", and got this response, "Brett Hullaby".
Hey, Big Ed.. What? - Big Ed was the owner and founder of Big Eds pizza.. we were told he pretty much lived at the restaurant. It appears that he is still there.
Help Them (soft), Before ya'll caught up to me.. for a long time - Marshall asked, "How long have you been here", and picked up on Sean's recorder came the response, as best we can tell, "Before ya'll caught up to me.. for a long time.
I'm drunk.. that's good! - Are the spirits having spirits?
It's alright" - Don't know what this is about.
Open a check - Perhaps a residual from a waitress in the past saying to open a check?
We're on our honeymoon - Residual, or ghost couple?
Ya'll can read, stock room - I always love it when ghosts make fun of me.. lol. I said, "What is this, stock room stuff, and got the response, "Ya'll can read" from one spirit, and then another just said, "stock room".
Ya'll (or you all) look gray - Not sure if the spirit is saying we look gray, or if he is saying another spirit looks gray, or what.
Marshall's Spirit Mike
help him
where'd you put my jeans
say what, takes a long time
neg (that is short for negative, meaning no)
Roro give us an "f"
Let's go back
Spirit mike on table
Get Back - Mark Mark is most likely talking
I like this, or Alexis
they're back
tell her this, all right, mercy
I can't get off or trampoline - To Marhsall, the one who recorded this, it sounds to him like, "I can't get off". To me (Sean), I hear, "trampoline" with what sounds like someone bouncing on a trampoline in the middle of the word. We don't seem to be able to hear what the other hears, so you decide.. or perhaps you'll hear something else.
[laugh] - A ghostly laugh
Don't give up on him or 2 points to the nephew - Marshall hears, "Don't give up on him", Sean hears, "2 points to the newphew", with what sounds like a basketball bouncing in the middle.. see what you think.
good day
Gus, come back
Get me your bandagess
I'd rather not care
come back here
Donna's voice mike
nickel up
Quit that cheating
I'm hot or maybe "a lot"
I'm right here next to you
come back

Watch LeVar Burton Talk 'Star Trek,' 'Reading Rainbow' on Our Google+ Hangout May 21
You don't have to take our word for it that LeVar Burton is awesome. You probably grew up with the guy, watching his multiple iconic roles on TV as Kunta Kinte on Roots, Geordi LaForge on Star Trek: The Next Generation, and as the host of Reading Rainbow, which inspired generations of kids to fall in love with books. In the next couple weeks, Reading Rainbow celebrates its 30th anniversary. Add this to the fact that moviegoers are excited about Star Trek all over again with the release of Star Trek Into Darkness, and we have a good deal to celebrate.
In honor of these two momentous occasions, LeVar Burton is joining Hollywood.com's inaugural "Summer Movies: Burning Questions" Google+ Hangout, part of a summer-long series, for an interview on Tuesday May 21 at 9:00 p.m. ET/6:00 p.m. PT. You can watch the live YouTube video stream of the Hangout on our Google+ page here or in the video that will be embedded right here, below, on Tuesday night.
LeVar will take your questions submitted via Twitter, Google+, or Facebook using the hashtag #hollywoodburningquestions, so ask him whatever Trek or Reading Rainbow questions you've always wondered about. Be sure to join us at 9:00 p.m. ET/6:00 p.m. PT for our Hangout.

Thinking about doing business in China?
The Confucius Institute can help!
We are a non-profit organization affiliated with the University of Nebraska – Lincoln. We exist to serve the community in building ties, connections, and knowledge about China.
As a part of our mission, we provide basic services to help the business community to establish connections with partners in China, including basic language classes, advisement on social, cultural and living issues in China, and other services to help you work and live in China. Need a local Chinese translator? Don't know where to get a Chinese visa? Need some background information on a Chinese company? We are here to serve.
Why should my business learn more about China?
China might seem far away, but Nebraska is as connected to China as it is to Iowa. In 2016, China was Nebraska's second largest trading partner. In May 2017, the Chinese government announced that they would lift the twelve year ban on the import of US beef, which only bears good tidings for Nebraskan businesses.
Opportunities in China are boundless, but there are also considerable pitfalls and risk. A basic knowledge of the social, political, and cultural context can help you avoid some of the most common and costly mistakes.
Ways the Confucius Institute can help Nebraskan businesses:
• Low-cost Chinese language classes
• Provide free advice and consultation
• Office seminars and lectures on China
• Basic translation services or recommend professional translators
• Basic business intelligence
• Help with Chinese visa applications
• Recommend professional business services that specialize in China

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) recently released its proposed rule for next year's hospital inpatient payment schedule. Along with a pay increase, there are several other changes coming that facilities need to know about.
According to a fact sheet from CMS, the payment increase is one of the most significant changes in the proposed payment updates.
The agency's boosting payments for inpatient stays for facilities that successfully participate in the Hospital Inpatient Quality Reporting (IQR) program. That and other smaller payment updates will together equal a 1.7% increase. Payments will also increase for Medicare uncompensated care. Rates for payments distributed to Medicare disproportionate share hospitals will rise by about 1.2%.
That means, in all, inpatient hospital payments will increase by 2.9%. CMS plans to spend an additional $3.1 billion on inpatient hospital services in 2018.
Even with these payment boosts, the agency still plans to continue pay cuts for facilities that don't make the grade. Hospitals will continue to receive penalties for having high readmission rates, as well as a 1% pay cut if they're not meeting the requirements of the Hospital-Acquired Condition Reduction Program.
Payments will also be adjusted due to performance in the Hospital Value-Based Purchasing program, though these adjustments can either lead to an increase or decrease in payments.
Program updates
Other changes are being made to CMS' various initiatives and programs.
With the Hospital-Acquired Conditions Reduction Program, the agency is planning to:
- make updates to the time period being used to calculate performance for the 2020 fiscal year
- create additional measures
- account for social risk factors
- account for disability and medical complexity in certain measures, and
- update the Extraordinary Circumstance Exception policy.
The agency is currently seeking comments about these pending changes.
For the Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program, CMS plans to update the payment adjustment, penalizing hospitals based on their performance to other facilities who serve a similar proportion of dual-eligible patients who receive both Medicare and Medicaid. This will require the agency to create a new payment formula, as well as a way to accurately calculate the proportion of dual-eligible patients so hospitals can be grouped properly.
Changes will also be coming for hospitals who report quality measures via their electronic health records (EHR) system. The reporting period and number of quality measures submitted will change for both 2017 and 2018, depending on whether hospitals are also participating in the EHR Incentive Program or have met meaningful use requirements.
Additional updates include changes to questions on patient satisfaction surveys about hospital pain management and changes to penalties for providers at ambulatory surgery centers participating in the EHR Incentive Program. Further details can be found in the text of the proposed rule, which will be available on the Federal Register April 28.

Philosophy is like sex: sure you can get some interesting results, but that's not why we do it. Going one step beyond…why do you FEEL pain or pleasure? Do plants have emotions? How is possible that some people do not understand other's emotions? Emotions seem to be everywhere, giving meaning to all events of our lives. They are the backbone of social activities as well as they drive the cognitive processes of several living entities. Several animals, including humans, have emotions but…what about machines?...Do machine can have emotions?
バルセロナ自治大学(Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona)
The Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) is a public university located in the metropolitan area of Barcelona. International in its outlook, it is fully consolidated within its local surroundings, and offers quality education in close association with research activity, the transfer of scientific, technological, cultural and educational knowledge, the promotion of its human potential and the responsible management of available resources.
シラバス - 本コースの学習内容
Welcome to this amazing course on the nature of emotions. You'll see that emotions are everywhere. They are the true meaning of our lives and guide us all throughout our daily actions. There is a lot to discuss, to think about, to discover about them! Six weeks for a Course, one Course for new Knowledge!
Where do emotions come from?
At the very beginning of this course we will look at the basic definitions and concepts related to the emotional events. At the same time we will introduce basic philosophical ideas in order to make possible the understanding of the nature of emotional values.
How many emotions do exist?
After the clarification about the different aspects we can find in emotional analysis, we will look at the number and type of different emotions. There are several theories about their number, and all of them also contain a way to understand how emotions emerged and evolved. The debate will be fun!
What does a plant feel?
Not only humans do have emotions. Other mammals have also them. And even insects. But do plants have emotions? Even bacteria, a so small entity, have also these emotional mechanisms. An evolutionary reconstruction will understand to understand how emotions are spread among living entities.
A neuroanthropological approach to emotions: from neurons to societies
Emotions regulate several key aspects of our life. But they are fundamental for social cohesion. Cooperation or altruism are fundamental aspects of human socialization that must be understood from an emotional perspective. Neurons will show the path to the creation of societies.

Red Sox's Hart set for debut against red-hot Rays
When Boston Red Sox left-hander Kyle Hart learned he would be called on to make his major league debut against the visiting Tampa Bay Rays on Thursday afternoon, the message came in a highly peculiar manner.
The 27-year-old pitcher was summoned into the manager's office in Pawtucket, R.I., on Tuesday, and Red Sox vice president of player development Ben Crockett was one of four people in the room.
Hart thought the meeting would result in his promotion to the majors, but the tone took a turn for the worse.
"They told me that I was actually getting fined by Major League Baseball for not wearing my mask," Hart said during a video call with reporters. "That's kind of a real scenario that is going to happen and probably has happened. I was a little worried at first, but then they told me, 'You can pay your fine at Fenway Park tomorrow.' Luckily, it was just a prank and they were pulling my leg."
Hart now strives to pitch as well as the quality of the prank when he tackles a Tampa Bay squad that has won the first three contests of the four-game series and has recorded five straight wins overall.
Hart was a 19th-round selection in the 2016 draft and has gone 25-29 with a 3.13 ERA in 77 appearances (71 starts) in the minors.
Hart isn't a flamethrower but has flashed the ability to record outs and that has impressed Red Sox pitching coach Dave Bush.
"I don't expect any particularly big changes with him, but as he's done the last couple years, he's just getting incrementally better at each of those small things to allow him to be successful at each step along the way," Bush said. "No magic answers, no big changes. His command is going to be critical. It always is for him.
"The stuff is not going to light up a radar gun, but he's got multiple pitches (and) commands the ball to both sides of the plate."
Boston will be hoping for a solid outing from Hart after Tampa Bay piled up 25 runs and 40 hits over the first three games.
The Red Sox have dropped seven straight home games against the Rays and 12 of the past 13.
Tampa Bay slugged four homers in Wednesday's 9-5 victory. Brandon Lowe and Yoshi Tsutsugo slugged two-run homers and Willy Adames and Austin Meadows hit solo blasts.
Lowe went 3-for-5 with three runs, Yandy Diaz went 3-for-5 with one RBI, and Kevin Kiermaier went 3-for-4 to fuel the Rays' 15-hit attack.
Lowe improved his career average in Fenway Park to .444 in 27 at-bats, while the homer was his third. Meadows is 12-for-39 (.308) with three homers at Fenway.
"They enjoy it the most," Adames said of Meadows and Lowe playing in Fenway. "They always rake, and it's fun to watch."
Also finding Wednesday's offensive production enjoyable was Rays manager Kevin Cash.
"We had tremendous at-bats early on," Cash said. "We got runs, and the most impressive thing is we continued to add throughout the (middle) innings, and that helped us."
Hoping the series-long run support continues is right-hander Tyler Glasnow (0-1, 5.56 ERA), who will be on the mound for Tampa Bay in the finale.
Glasnow lasted just 2 2/3 innings while losing to the New York Yankees last Saturday. He gave up four runs, five hits, three walks and struck out five.
Glasnow, who turns 27 on Aug. 23, is 1-1 with a 3.32 ERA in four career outings (all starts) versus the Red Sox. Michael Chavis, J.D. Martinez and Mitch Moreland have hit homers off Glasnow.
Martinez hit a grand slam in Boston's Wednesday loss, his second homer of the season.

Manage Risk
Minimizing a company's exposure to risk is an important aspect for all businesses, which is why CTrax is so necessary. Another important aspect is ensuring that all risk exposures and lines of business are covered. Through automated workflow, the chance for human error is eliminated by the system autonomously updating and managing all information pertaining to certificates of insurance.
Certificates of insurance can be required for many reasons. To mark the occasion, the company decides to set up their warehouse with lighting and a stage, in addition to hiring entertainment. Due to numerous laws and safety codes, the company is responsible for maintaining certificates of insurance for the setup crew and any other hired persons in their building.
Normally, this would require a ton of extra time and effort to organize and manage. But, using CTrax employees will spend less time searching through filing cabinets and more time ensuring that your business is running. CTrax automatically mitigates user risk by removing the stress of having to manually manage certificate operations. In the case an incident does occur, coverage is only a click away. It's like having a personal assistant that you don't have to micromanage.
View all of your essential and critical information with a configurable, easy-to-use interface.
Effortlessly group COIs by project to conveniently manage and track vendors over time.
Batch Uploads
Instantly import all of your COIs and supporting documents into the CTrax database.

text: The state of Kentucky, like many other states, is caught between a historically vital industry and a sustainable future. Coal is the way of the past and the industry has been engrained itself in Kentucky's economy for centuries. However, with legislation like the Clean Power Act requiring a shift to renewable, sustainable resources, states are required to either comply with the new federal legislation, or come up with a tailored plan that helps the state to meet the required decrease in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030. When Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin indicated no intent in creating such a plan at the outset of his governorship last year, some locals took it into their own hands to come up with a plan that would allow the aspects of the past and the future to work in concert for a sustainable future. For more information on the Kentuckians for the Commonwealth, a grassroots coalition started to represent local special interests that is working towards this sustainable future, please visit: http://www.eenews.net/stories/1060044749

How do you stop Google listing your site?
What many people think the answer is:
Put a robots.txt file in the root of your website with:
User-agent: * Disallow: /
Job done!
What actually happens if you do this:
Your site may still appear in Google with a natty little "A description for this result is not available because of this site's robots.txt – learn more" message next to it.
(To be clear, just using this as an example. Not trying to pick on them at all.)
What just happened?!
Ok, some history. The robots.txt standard was started in 1994 and was intended to deal with the problems of bad robots causing problems for servers.
In 1993 and 1994 there have been occasions where robots have visited WWW servers where they weren't welcome for various reasons. Sometimes these reasons were robot specific, e.g. certain robots swamped servers with rapid-fire requests, or retrieved the same files repeatedly. In other situations robots traversed parts of WWW servers that weren't suitable, e.g. very deep virtual trees, duplicated information, temporary information, or cgi-scripts with side-effects (such as voting).
These incidents indicated the need for established mechanisms for WWW servers to indicate to robots which parts of their server should not be accessed. This standard addresses this need with an operational solution.
Note there is nothing there about SEO. That was not the original purpose of the standard. The original purpose was for web owners to have a way to indicate that robots should not go to certain pages.
So Google, it can be argued, is technically following the original intent and purpose of this. If you have a robots.txt file blocking robots, then the Google Bot will not visit your site*.
But – and this is the crucial bit – Google will still list your site with information from other sources, like links.
Ok, how do I actually stop Google from listing my website?
Go and read this official Google page carefully. It's short, I'll wait.
In effect, you have to add a tag to your page:
<meta name="robots" content="noindex">
And also – note the "Important" box on that Google page – you have to make sure the Googlebot is not blocked from seeing that meta tag by something, like, say, for the sake of example, a robots.txt file.
So wait, in order to stop Google listing my site …
… you have to make damn sure Google can crawl your site. Exactly.
That's Freaking Insane!
Glad I'm not the only one that thinks that.
The robots.txt standard was created for the purpose of stopping bots from accessing parts of your site, nothing to do with SEO. Over the years, this point got confused. Now Google, while arguably following the standard to the letter, has created a slightly insane situation in regards to what you must actually do to make sure your site isn't listed in Google.
* Really, Google do honour robots.txt. To the point that if you try and import a ics feed from a URL to your Google Calendar, and that URL is covered by a robots.txt file that bans robots …. Google Calendar will just point blank refuse.

Ask Fun Questions
Did you know that Nani has two pet miniature donkeys? Or that Dr. Bollenbaugh is learning to play the mandolin? One of the best things about NCU is the student to teacher ratio: 18:1. It gives us a chance to get to know our teachers. The Academics Committee wants to help make this even easier. We're creating surveys for gathering fun facts about the people who teach us every day. If there is something you've always wondered about one of our faculty members, take a moment to leave it in the comments. We are not looking for Donuts and Discussion type questions; we want the childhood memory/favorite color kind of questions. Results will be posted here in a few weeks, and maybe you'll learn something that you can talk about next time you run into your teacher at Starbucks.
