"The U.S. Government and the Federal Reserve are terrified of Bitcoin. It's classic disruptive technology .... Disruptive business models, new and better ways of doing things, always scare the daylights out of the old guard. Bitcoin, it's new. It is a huge game changer." (Scott J. Cooper, CEO and Creative Director of World Patent Marketing)
"The vast majority of Middle East respondents (93 percent in UAE and 86 percent in KSA) [to a recent Accenture study] believe that we have reached a tipping point in the talent shortage for IT skills that will require companies to look at emerging technology solutions to augment their workforces. … successful organizations will manage employees alongside intelligent machines, ensuring collaboration between the two. More than half the respondents (56 percent in UAE and 54 percent in KSA) said they are already using augmentation technologies, like wearables, to better train their workforce, and more than four in 10 (45 percent in UAE and 42 percent in KSA) said they are implementing training to improve human-robot collaboration."

We are thrilled to report that Peter & Wendy based on the novel Peter Pan by J.M. Barrie has been confirmed to air on Boxing Day at 8pm on ITV. The 2-hour special stars Stanley Tucci, pop star Paloma Faith and Breaking Bad's Laura Frasier alongside a cast of talented kids who bring to life this magical re-imagining of a timeless classic.
As reported by Den of Geek the drama opens in modern day Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) where twelve-year-old Lucy Rose (Hazel Doupe, who also plays Wendy Darling) is awaiting treatment for a serious heart condition. Her mother Julie (Laura Fraser, also doubling up as Mrs Darling) is distraught with the fear of losing her child, and surgeon Mr Wylie (Stanley Tucci, who also plays Hook) assures her he will do everything in his power to make the operation a success. The day before her operation, Lucy reads J.M. Barrie's novel of Peter Pan to a crowd of sick children in the hospital, and she goes to sleep with thoughts of the classic tale in her head. Lucy dreams this version of Peter Pan into existence and the story is retold through the young girl's imagination.
The magical story cuts back and forth between Lucy's modern day struggles and the fantasy land of Neverland, with the common theme being positivity and belief.
Peter & Wendy was was written by BAFTA-winning writer Adrian Hodges (My Week With Marilyn) and directed by BAFTA-winning director Diarmuid Lawrence (Little Dorrit). It was made in partnership not only with ourselves but with Great Ormond Street Hospital for children to whom J.M. Barrie gifted the rights to his much-loved classic as part of his will. Visit their website to Give To Gosh and support the amazing work they do, after all, Christmas is a time for giving.
And if you're in the UK this Christmas, we hope to see you all on the sofa this Boxing Day. Pass the selection box!

We recently looked at the process of foreclosure from the perspective of the homeowner and the lender. Neither are thrilled to be going through this process. The homeowner is losing a place to live and probably will take a huge hit on his credit. The lender will likely take a loss on the property after it sells at auction, if it sells at all.
But is a foreclosure a good idea as an investment opportunity? Not in every case. The house might be trashed but, if it's not, you might want to take a closer look.
The first step is pre-foreclosure. During this period you can offer to buy the property outright from the homeowner. You have time to research the title and condition of the property and could acquire it at a price 20% to 40% below market value. If there is no interest during the pre-foreclosure period, the property goes to public auction.
At the auction, the opening bid is set by the lender holding the mortgage and is usually equal to the outstanding balance on the loan plus any additional fees associated with the sale. If there are no higher bids, the attorney for the lender buys the property and it is considered bank owned. While public auctions can offer incredible bargains, you will be expected to pay cash at the time of sale (or within 24 hours) and will have little opportunity to research the title of condition of your prospective purchase.
Obviously, this is not an investment technique for beginners but, at some time in your career, you may be interested in taking a closer look at investing in real estate through foreclosures.

A friend convinced him that his talents would be wasted as a venture capitalist, especially since he was one of the few people in the nation with the skills to retool a lagging but complex organization like Aetna.
Williams admits he was drawn to the challenge. And Aetna found the prospect of signing the exec even more appealing. "There's Ron Williams and then there's everybody else," a headhunter told then chairman and CEO Rowe.
"We needed a very senior operation executive who understood health insurance at the molecular level," he explains, "somebody who could take apart the engine and put the 200 pieces on the garage floor, put it back together, turn the key, and it would start."
Rowe, a renowned gerontologist who joined Aetna in 2000, was a physician who had previously run Mount Sinai NYU Health in New York. He had never managed a for-profit business.
Williams and Rowe did share the same vision for what an HMO could become: an organization that would influence the quality of healthcare. The two, however, had wildly different management styles and personalities.
In outlining their differences, the talkative, playful Rowe explains: "If we are going to visit a customer, all I need is a one-page summary of our relationship and the current major issues. Hand it to me in the back seat of the car on the way from the airport to see the customer. Ron wants a report that's this thick, about everything, the customer's company and the industry, etc."
The chemistry worked. When Williams joined the firm in 2001 as the new chief of health operations, there were concerns about a hostile takeover, and the company suffered net losses of $279.6 million. "This was a company that looked like at one point it might even go bankrupt," explains Joe France, a healthcare analyst at Banc of America Securities. "It was really the low ebb of the company's 125-year history."
Part of Williams' turnaround strategy focused on targeting different customer segments and developing new products within various lines of business. He strengthened the dental company that had been losing market share for years. He also invested millions in the pharmacy business, opting to manage it internally rather than partner with a pharmaceutical company. Williams also stopped outsourcing behavioral health services — which includes wellness and mind/body treatments — and brought the unit back in house.
Mark T. Bertolini, executive vice president of Aetna regional businesses, helped Williams execute the bold strategy to resuscitate Aetna. "What we know is that customers who had more than three products with us had a much higher retention rate than customers who only had one product with us," says Bertolini.
A technology buff, Williams has applied new systems to advance strategic initiatives, such as centralizing patient data using a patented set of computer algorithms. For example, the system can identify incompatible prescriptions for a patient who may be seeing several different doctors. And Aetna was one of the first to offer a combined preferred provider plan, Aetna HealthFund, which gives members the

Pop Brixton is given two year lease extension despite making no profit
The site houses 16 food traders in shipping containers, including both street food stalls and sit down restaurants. Popular Indian restaurant Kricket was a previous tenant at the site, and Koi Ramen, Mama's Jerk and Donostia Social Club are amongst the vendors currently onsite.
The self-styled business park made the loss on top of receiving £100,000 in public grants and a £92,000 loan from Lambeth Council since opening in May 2015.
The company's accounts, filed in December, showed that the company's creditors are due £1.65m- a significant leap from the previous year's figure of £304,000.
The peppercorn rent deal for the site dictates that Lambeth Council, which owns the site, receives 50% of the profit made.
Last year, the company had predicted that it would break even in the summer of 2018, although the lease extension suggests that the council is not so optimistic.
It now seems that profit will not be seen until 2019, by which time Pop Brixton will have been trading for four years without returning profit to the landlord, or paying rent.
Pop Brixton was developed in reaction to high streets brands dominating the capital, and is home to more than 50 young, independent businesses, many of which were set up by local business people.

Ciarán Collins' debut novel, The Gamal, won the 2013 Rooney Prize for Irish Literature. It's one of the most-impressive debut novels in years.
The Gamal is narrated by a young man, Charlie, who tells us from the off that we won't like him. He's blunt, undiplomatic, and prefers to use photographs rather than describe places. He's writing the book unwillingly, as an account of a tragedy that occurred some years previously, at the behest of his psychiatrist, a man of whom he doesn't think very highly. Charlie is known as the gamal, a short form of Gamalóg, an Irish word for a simpleton, so we embark on the book understanding that Charlie is regarded as somewhat mentally deficient by his community. He's also undergoing treatment for some form of post-traumatic-stress-disorder, presumably as the result of the tragedy looming in the recent past. Read the rest of this entry »

Polyurethane - Polyurethane Foam
Polyurethane - Polyurethane Foam, AFPT produces polyurethane foam slabs in different densities for various applications.
Polyurethane - Polyurethane Foam
Rigid polyurethane foam has closed cell structure and has got better insulation properties then many other insulation materials. So it is widely used in building cold rooms and for insulation of piping and tanks in industrial / mining applications. Heat generated from curing fibreglass does not affect polyurethane foam thus enabling fibreglass lamination.
Polyurethane foam is widely used for marine buoyancy. One cubic metre of 35kg/M3 polyurethane foam would have a positive buoyancy of 965kg. Rigid polyurethane foam is used extensively by sculptors and artisans to create shapes as it can be easily carved, sanded in to difficult shapes quickly.
Foam Sheets
AFPT makes blocks of 1200mm x 2400mm and depending on the density usually blocks are made up to 600mm high. We stock 10mm to 600mm sheets in 35kg/M3, 60kg/M3 and 90kg/M3. Contact AFPT for any other densities required.
Profile Cutting
AFPT has a computerized bi-axle cutting machine to cut not only sheets of different thicknesses but also to profile cut different shapes. This amazing state of the art machine can cut letters for signage, wings for model aircraft, c-sections for piping insulation to name a few.
Foam Fill
Foam filling in buoyancy appliances require special skills to avoid any air pockets that may occur. AFPT has many years of experience in both on-site and in house foam filling. AFPT has skills to fill small floats to large pontoons.
Retail Kits
Liquid foam is supplied in both pour-in and spray on kits. Liquid foam kits are available in 2kg, 8kg and 40kg kits. Approximately a 2kg of kit can fill a cavity of 57Litres of volume.

From the hood, And I stood on them Houston streets
We stick together like cuban's links

I'm the rocker betty crocker cooking cookies and cakes
V-12 the blow it up as my coke inflates
Ima swanga Gucci on my hangar
Just bought my cousin on the ranch a ford wrangler
I like to ride horses like mustangs and porches
Pain is my producer leader of the dark forces
Striking like matches droppin like ashes
I only buy dances if they paying college classes muthaf_cka
I'm wrecking for my G's in Garza West
I'm wrecking for my G's in Garza East
I'm wrecking for my G's in T.D.C

75% of Marketers Optimize Mobile Sites
Mobile-optimized websites dominated in 2016, with 75 percent of responding marketers saying they invested in making their sites accessible to the devices, according to Target Marketing research. Indubitably, that number's grown in 2017, as even Google demands the mobile Web experience be flawless in order to rank in search results.
Natural language is a next step in Google's demands, as consumers are using voice to search and are having an impact on content marketing and SEO.
Returning to the findings in "Marketing Mix Trends 2010-2016," Target Marketing's analysis of six years of "Media Usage Survey" data includes examining this tactic from 2011 to 2016. The "Mobile-Optimized Website" section is part of a benchmarking of marketing media channels, technology and tactics included in the Target Marketing/NAPCO Research study. Both Target Marketing and NAPCO Research are NAPCO Media brands.
Mobile-Optimized Websites
Please find an excerpt from "Marketing Mix Trends 2010-2016" below.
Because most entities are on the Web, optimizing sites for mobile access is no longer a nicety: It's a price of doing business. The rate at which respondents indicate they don't optimize their sites for mobile has fallen during the past five years. Those saying their sites aren't optimized has plunged from 50 percent to 25 percent, as of 2016. Those who are optimizing their sites for mobile aren't doing so because it's cool: The Web-browsing experience is different on mobile. The smaller screens require a rethinking of the digital experience, including a stripped-down functionality, one which places ease of loading and navigation above the full-fledged browsing experience accessing via a computer offers.
Marketers who don't optimize for mobile risk frustrating a significant portion of their prospects: Early in 2016, eMarketer predicted that one in eight Web surfers would access the Internet exclusively through their mobile devices.

I believe, Elder Scrolls 3 Morrowind is hands down the best elder scrolls and overall best story in the entire franchise. Despite the technical aspects of the game, it is something that truly defined me as a gamer alongside games like Ocarina of time, Half-Life 2, Fallout 1,2 and New Vegas, and The Baldur Gate series. Morrowind did something that no other elder scrolls ever dude till this day, made you feel like an alien. The game had a very good sense of atmosphere and had a way, despite the actions you took, of not getting to comfortable in the world. I cannot say the same for Oblivion and Skyrim despite them being both great games in their own right. What Elder Scrolls defined your experience with the series?

Wall Street Journal adapts business model for online products
World Congress Blog | 06 May 2012
Perhaps the best way to adapt a business model is to listen to your audience.
That's exactly what Amy Leyh, director of digital circulation marketing for Dow Jones & Co., said Sunday at the 82nd INMA World Congress that The Wall Street Journal had to learn.
Wall Street Journal Professional, CFO Journal, and CIO Journal all were launched as separate entities operating independently while still operating under the WSJ umbrella.
The original plan was to charge $120 for access to each platform, in addition to a WSJ.com subscription. That model has since been replaced, Leyh said.
"We were able to reach somewhat of a broad audience but not entirely able to track the advertisers that we wanted," she said. "I think the product was just a little bit too raw. In thinking about that and changing our strategy a little bit moving forward, we wanted to focus on more specialised content and create more niche audiences."
Each product has a specific purpose.
WSJ Professional is geared toward a knowledge worker base. CFO Journal aims to appeal to senior financial professionals. CIO Journal, which utilises Factiva SmartSearch, similar to databases such as Lexus Nexis, is focused toward senior information technology professionals, respectively.
After assessing each platform's strengths, the next step was to create specialised content that Leyh said allowed the Journal to segment their audience and deepen engagement.
"The success really does depend on our marketing group and consumer revenue group," she said.
Now the idea is all of it can be streamlined into one spot and become a more appealing product to consumers and more importantly advertisers.
"What we're looking to do is to integrate these into our WSJ.com product moving forward for one price, allowing us to broaden our reach but still maintain a niche target and really focus in on the needs of these specific audiences," she said. "This will also allow us to create greater advertising dollars."

Deep Vellum & WordSpace are proud to present legendary singer/songwriter JOHN DARNIELLE reading from his debut novel, WOLF IN WHITE VAN, at The Wild Detectives on Sunday, October 5 at 7pm!!!!!
Darnielle's publisher, FSG, announced today the full tour itinerary for WOLF IN WHITE VAN, and it's impressive. He's basically doing a book tour like he would a band tour. Hitting so many cities. I love it. The novel drops September 16. Get it at your local bookstore. Or your online indie outlet of choice (*cough*Powell's*cough*). Or request your local library to buy a copy.
Darnielle himself posted the tour announcement on The Mountain Goats website, though he does make note he's leaving the guitar at home on this tour and focusing on the book, the reading, and being his normal literary self (he subscribes to Open Letter! He loves translated literature! He's my ideal reader!):
Dear anybody whose question "will there be a book tour?" I have seemed to ignore, please know that I was not ignoring you, but that there was a plan to tell people about the tour I'll be doing for Wolf In White Van. I am constitutionally predisposed to call this plan a dark and evil plan, but honestly I don't see how going places and reading from my book can really be thought of as dark and evil, though I will do my best.
I'm putting this up here on Mountain Goats Dot Com because it seems probable that a number of people who like our music will also be interested in the book, but for purposes of clarity be advised that I am leaving my guitar at home for this one and will play no songs on this tour, though I can't promise that Mr. Hodgman and I won't do an a capella chorus or two of "Sing a Song About Love", or possibly "We Bite."
See you out there!
Full reading information is below. Sign up to attend on the Facebook event page, and preorder the book online or, better yet, buy a copy at The Wild Detectives!

And speaking of Wordspace, don't forget that I'm hosting a discussion on July 24 at the Wild Detectives on the amazing DEFINITELY MAYBE by Boris & Arkady Strugatsky (recently re-released by Melville House in their amazing Neversink Library) as part of WordSpace's resurrected OffWorld Reading Series, where they delve into what makes sci-fi so damn interesting. I'll be discussing Soviet sci-fi in particular. The Wild Detectives have plenty of copies of the book in stock, grab one, read it quick (it's a slim 140 pages), laugh your ass off (it's a hilarious book, and weird, but mostly hilarious), and then re-read it and join us on July 24 for a night of book talkin' & sci-fi slingin'. See you there!

We help to protect the future of the industry by working individually and together on progressive approaches that accelerate sustainability.
The SSI operates in three distinct ways to achieve our Vision:
We identify areas where the SSI is best placed to act and apply a number of our tools in those areas. We currently have several methods of delivering our objectives which include are bi-annual face to face members meetings, our work groups which focus on specific topics and our wider industry engagement through involvement in workshops, think tanks and conferences.
The Sustainable Shipping Initiative supports the Sustainable Development Goals
The UN's 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development which consists of 17 Sustainable Development Goals officially entered into force in January 2016, these Goals set the UNs sustainable development programme for the next 15 years and unlike previous programmes these Goals are unique as they call for action from all countries to promote prosperity while protecting the planet instead of just the developed countries. These Goals, also encourage industry to play a vital role in achieving the targets, in light of this the SSI is taking a position that the shipping industry can help deliver specific targets and in doing so we are making sure our work going forward not only meets our vision for a sustainable shipping industry by 2040 but also contributes to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, we have also highlighted previous areas of work which align with these Goals.
Historically the SSI was founded in 2010 by Forum for the Future but has since grown into an independent charity led and managed by the industry members with support from its Secretariat and overseen by a board of trustees. This is a significant achievement, and reflects the renewed drive by the members to catalyse a sustainable industry.
Under Forum for the Future's guidance the SSI members worked with the wider shipping industry to develop a Vision for a sustainable shipping industry in 2040 and a roadmap showing how this could be achieved these are detailed in the about the SSI section of the website, however all our current work focuses on achieving this vision.

According to a report from Juventudes Libertarias (Anarchist Youth) dated June 17, 2001, about twelve thousand mine workers armed with dynamite occupied the city of La Paz demanding the expulsion of mining multinationals from Bolivia. Of course, the unions played their proper social role as "the vanguard of compromise", promoting the idea that negotiating with the national bourgeoisie is the best way for the workers to gain their demands.
At about the same time a truckers' strike closed down most of the country's highways for seven days. And more recently, factory workers began their own action in the face of a failing economy.
As is always the case, the unions and other progressives have been pushing a program of nationalist class collaboration, trying to convince the exploited that their interests are one with those of the Bolivian capitalist class, that slavery to a local master is better than slavery to a foreign master—the same old lie used over and over again to prevent revolution.
But a significant part of the Bolivian economy relates to the cultivation of coca, largely for traditional us in its unprocessed form. Using anti-drug policies as an excuse, the Bolivian government, with some significant assistance from the United States, is seeking to eradicate coca cultivation in order to appropriate these lands for multinationals. In response, farmers have formed self-defense committees. Government attacks and repression are pushing the farmers toward an armed uprising—a large-scale insurrection that could easily develop without forming a specialized military wing, since current developments are in the direction of a generalized arming of the rural population.
In the Yungas region, one of the main areas of traditional coca cultivation, the government recently attempted military invasion to eradicate coca plants. As soon as they heard of this, local farmers came together and drove the troops out to the border of the region.
On June 21, peasants of the Altiplano region set up roadblocks to protest their situation of poverty. The government sent in the military and two people were killed and several others wounded. The peasants have said that they are not going to back down in the face of such repression, but are prepared instead to arm themselves and move their struggle in an explicitly revolutionary direction. They proved that this is not just talk when they attacked power line towers with dynamite in response to the two murders.
On July 2, impoverished debtors took over three government buildings: the department of People's Defense, the office of the Catholic archbishop and the banking supervisory agency. The debtors, among whom were women involved with the anarcha-feminist group Mujeres Creando (Women's Initiative), were armed with dynamite and molotov cocktails. In the banking authority they took top-level functionaries hostage in their office tying bundles of dynamite to them. In addition to these occupations in La Paz, people also occupied an archbishop's office in the city of Sucre and there were a street protests in Tarija. A large number of these poor debtors are peasants who are already suffering from intense poverty and would find themselves starving in the streets were the banks to foreclose on their loan. Their immediate demands are the total cancellation of their debts, an end to the suits against them and an end to the impounding of the few things they have. Their method of struggle is that of direct action and attack. Their struggle has been going on for some time, starting as peaceful protests, but becoming increasingly intense as the method of attack proved increasingly necessary. Previous to this latest occupation, there have been attempts to burn banks. The situation of the poor debtors is desperate and many are prepared to take the most extreme steps necessary to end their misery.
The social struggle in Bolivia is intensifying. As generally happens in such situations, the true colors of everyone involved are being exposed. The unions and progressive groups attempt to pacify the exploited, but reality exposes the worthlessness of compromise. And in the face of the cowardice of their so-called representatives, the exploited of Bolivia are beginning to act for themselves. As the anarchist of Juventudes Libertarias say: "Violence is justifiable, insurrection is indispensable."

Cheney in '00: Invading Baghdad Would Make Us "An Imperial Power" [VIDEO]
Recently an unearthed CSPAN video of Dick Cheney (then a former defense secretary and considering a '96 run for the White House) from 1994 where he quite reasonably and intelligently argued that invading Baghdad following the Gulf War would have let to a "quagmire" has exploded on the web. The footage has gathered so much steam, and pissed off so many Americans, Cheney's press people were confronted about his inconsistency. The best defense Cheney's defenders could muster: "He was not vice president at the time." Good one guys. Of course they fail to acknowledge that more recently, in August 2000 to be exact, Cheney again repeated the logical position that invading Baghdad would not be worth the loss of lives, money and stability in the Middle East.
Was he lying? Did 9/11 really "change everything"? What is with this guy? John Nichols of The Nation chats with Keith Olbermann and he argues that Cheney's thinking on Iraq has never changed privately even if it has shifted publicly. In '94 he didn't want to seem to hawkish when he was thinking of running for president and in '00 he didn't want to expose his ideology too much when campaigning to be the vice presidential nominee. Nichols feels that this reflects a political cynicism that he hasn't seen since Richard Nixon or maybe before too. This goes back to college in the early 60's where Cheney's old professors say he had a simplistic view of the world and dreams of unchecked presidential powers. He was simply giving the safe answers at a time when the public wouldn't have tolerated an invasion.

Christmas Now
The most obvious thing to do in my mind at this time of year in order ot monetize my sight was to write a Christmas gift guide for anyone who might be interested in doing some indoor gardening.
I have affiliates on here, such as Amazon. When you link to Amazon from this site, and buy any products within 24 hours of doing so, I get a small commission. I will be adding affiliates as I go, because that is the only way I have to make a living at this time. If I can't make a little money, I can't continue this site. It would be nice if I got paid for my wonderful personality and unique writing style, but I don't.
So I spent a couple of weeks before Christmas trying to put together a list of items that could be considered gifts for the indoor gardener. You know the stuff……like food grade buckets if you're into Hydroponics, compost starter if you want to use soil, micro-rooters or Jiffy Pots for seed starting. Lights are a good thing if you are truly growing indoors or perhaps greenhouse kits if you are more the indoor/outdoor type of gardener.
All of these are good, but pretty common. Most of these things I've written about on other posts, so if you need some information about which to choose, check them out. Good reading.
Each and every time I went back to the gift guide post to add more stuff, all I could think was, oh no, not another gift guide. Surely I have more imagination than that.
Time For Change
As the last year has gone by, I find myself more and more interested in prepping and homesteading. My interest in prepping is more generic than what we usually hear about in the media. I think it only makes sense that if you live in an area where natural disasters are likely from time to time, you prepare for such. If you live in a tornado alley so to speak, you should have an underground shelter of sorts in order to ride it out, with of course some provisions for a couple of weeks in case your house is demolished. Insurance helps for rebuilding, but we all know how slow that can be.
The same is true of people most likely to find themselves in the path of a hurricane. Lower lying areas like the states on the Gulf of Mexico have to either build houses that can withstand the powerful winds and are far enough back from the shore or built high enough on stilts to keep from being flooded, or have a clear evacuation path planned out. Most people don't want to evacuate because they don't trust the police to be able to keep their house from being looted, and once the hurricane goes by or through, they won't let you back in to your house for about 2 weeks. Sometimes the hurricane takes a drastic turn at the last minute and ends up bypassing you all together. If you wait long enough for that to happen, the evacuation routes can be filled with bumper to bumper barely moving traffic.
In some places, forest fires are common and the people in that area should take all precaution possible to survive in such an event, but often the situation is much like a hurricane. The wind direction changes, and suddenly your plans change for the good or the bad.
Now this seems to be the most common fear among preppers, not zombies. I understand this concern, and to some extent, I sympathize with them. The problem I have with this theme, is some of these folks want to spur it on, facilitate the uprising. I'm against this, because it seems to be rooted in hatred. Hatred for the President, for Democrats or Republicans, and basically, hatred for anyone who doesn't think like they do. I hate that!
I do not want this to be a political site, so if and when I discuss being prepared, it is not meant to be a political statement. It's simply meant to help you turn the worse case scenario into a more than bearable experience so that you not only survive, but thrive.
Growing your own vegetables can aid you in this quest. Saving extra water can help and it wouldn't hurt to have a little extra gas either. In most disasters, your electricity will be cut off for some time. We had a tropical storm go through here around 2006. I lost electricity for 30 minutes, but my landlord, who lived on the other side of the river, did without it for 2 weeks. She was in high rise condominiums, so she didn't really have the option of a generator. Had she lived in a house she could have used one, provided she had saved some extra gas.
To Wrap It Up
In any case, I'm just letting you know what's to come in 2016. There is still plenty more to talk about when it comes to gardening at home, but I don't want to cover the same topics over and over. So I'll be diversifying to some extent.
Shameless Sales Pitch
So, here we are, fat and sassy. The holidays are over for the most part, and I don't know about you, but I've been eating quite a bit of stuff that could be considered anything but healthy. I make no apologies-I'm fat. I'm around 6 ft. tall and I'm small boned, but I weighed in day before yesterday at 200 lbs. I've been around 193 for the last couple of years, but most of those extra 7 lbs. I gained since Thanksgiving. Even I have to say enough is enough. It's just too much weight for me to carry. A few years ago, I took some advice from a guy named Mike Geary, who runs a site and business called The Truth About Abs. Mike is a nutritionist and very savvy when it comes to what you need to eat to cut down on the extra pounds. His ideas worked for me at the time, coupled with short exercises called High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT). I ran into a series of road blocks, such as my Dad passing, my Mom having dementia setting in, not being happy at work, etc., although I don't consider those acceptable excuses. I'm back at it now though, and the first person I turned to was Mike Geary. If you're interested in a little direction on this subject, check him out. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
So as always, be sure to leave any comments if you have something to say or just want to argue. I always respond.

COCHRANE—We're excited to celebrate another year with you at Canadian Global Response! Press on the download link below for a PDF version of our 2016 Annual Report, or press on the web link to view the file online. Our financial statements have been audited and are available upon request. In addition to the year's highlights, here's an update from our President:
As I look back over this year, one of the highlights for me is seeing the movement of CGR, especially the number of volunteers catching the vision to 'Live with A purpose'—like the teams who went to the Philippines to help rebuild homes, and the volunteers who had 'Christmas with a purpose' amongst the forcibly-displaced vulnerable minorities of Northern Iraq!
Not only did the volunteers go and get involved, but they've caught the vision themselves! They are telling their own stories of the refugees, individuals and families they met in person. And they are working towards sponsoring vetted cases of these refugee families to resettle in Canada! Radio Canada and other media outlets highlighted CGR's Quebec volunteers doing just that in Jordan at Christmas.
Thank you for your generous giving to enable CGR to touch the lives of many in Canada and around the world!
Looking ahead, we need to continue this momentum. The refugee situation is overwhelming, and it is not going away! We cannot turn a blind eye, thinking it's not our problem. Whether we like it or not, refugees are in our backyard, and more will come. It's up to us to make a difference!"
Abraham Shepherd, CGR President
What's next in 2017? We're excited to offer you new and continuing ways to show love in action! Get in touch with us to host a training event, to helping your group sponsor a refugee family. We've even had creative fundraisers like a cupcake and dumpling event!
Child sponsorship now exists for displaced Syrian children. We're also providing apartment space for 150 refugees in Iraq for safety and a healthy way to reintegrate into society.
Looking to help overseas? With your skills join us as we plan volunteer trips to assist in Iraq, Philippines, Nepal, Chad and beyond. Volunteer positions such as coordinating volunteers, grant writing, and social media are also available—please contact our office to get started.

Not only are these hackers using automated programs to guess login credentials, but they are also searching for outdated versions of WordPress, outdated versions of the theme being used, and outdated versions of plugins and other software. Outdated software will usually have an exploit that hackers use to gain entry to your website and/or server.
Why do hackers target your site? Hacks are usually random and are used for spamming on the site itself, or spam through a php mailer which will also ruin your IP reputation. So even after the hack is removed you may still experience bounced back emails in this case. Hacks are also used for political information, usually from oversea hackers.
Best advice for keeping your website secure...
- Keep your website software, theme or template, plugins, and all software up to date.
- Be sure to use numbers, upper case and lower case letters, and symbols in all passwords.
- Never use the same password twice.
- Never use words found in a dictionary as a password.
- use over 15 characters in a password.
- Never give out your password to anyone, even a tech support person, always create a new, temporary account for anyone who needs access. Be sure to delete the temporary user as soon as possible.
- Change your password often.
- Treat user names like passwords, never use anything like a name, or other dictionary word. Make user names just as random as a password.
Keep your website and email safe! Email us if you want us to check the security of your website, email and/or hosting server.

Want to catch a glimpse of HTC's thinnest Android smartphone ahead of Mobile World Congress? A YouTube video just appeared online which reveals the HTC Ville, a device that is rumored to feature a metal unibody design under 8mm thick.
Additional details that have been leaked so far include Android 4.0, Sense 4.0, 4.3-inch qHD Super AMOLED display, 1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor, 8 MP rear camera, VGA front camera, HSPA+, Bluetooh 4.0, and a 1,650 mAh battery.
The dual-core Snapdragon S4 will feature Qualcomm's new Krait CPU core that offers a 60% performance increase compared to the existing Scorpion micro-architecture found in the Snapdragon S1, S2, and S3. A new Adreno 225 GPU will also provide 50% faster graphics performance.
In the video we can see the performance lags quite a bit, but this is pre-production software. Hopefully HTC can achieve the same smooth performance that we have seen on the Transformer Prime.
HTC is scheduled to hold their MWC press conference on February 26th at 8:30 PM (Barcelona Time) and we will be on-site to check out whatever they announce. Be on the lookout for more details over the coming weeks.
Update: The video has been pulled at the request of HTC. We saved a copy, but don't want to piss off HTC by re-uploading it. A screen capture can be seen below.

Underwater delights surface in Cromer
PUBLISHED: 15:58 08 April 2019 | UPDATED: 16:12 08 April 2019
Two north Norfolk artists feature in the What Lies Beneath exhibition, which is at the Art House Cafe in Cromer until Saturday, May 11.
Underwater Vessels, inspired by the north Norfolk reef, features a range of bowls and dishes using different fused glass techniques by Susan Purser Hope, from Cromer.
She said: "The colours and forms of the creatures and plants living on the reef are magical and a real challenge to me to represent them in glass to their full advantage."
Meanwhile, Ultramarine: an artistic journey under the waves features work by Rainie Kay, who works from her studio on the coast near Cromer, and includes some photographic-based pieces, along with new prints and several ocean-themed paintings. The exhibition was previously at the Anteros Gallery in Norwich. The cafe was opened almost four years ago by Liz James whose ambition was to support and exhibit local artists.
