Egypt opened its latest overseas exhibition, 'The Sunken Cities: Egypt's charming world', in the Minneapolis Institute of Art (Mia) in the US. Moustafa Waziri, secretary general of the Supreme Council of Antiquities (SCA), inaugurated the exhibition, which runs for the second time in the US, after it lasted for six months in Saint Louis city. The exhibition will run until April 2019.
Waziri said in his opening speech that the exhibition attracted 113,000 visitors in its first city, which is considered a "huge success", adding that it is expected for this exhibition to attract the same number of visitors.
The exhibition displays 293 antiquities that were discovered submerged in the Mediterranean Sea, due to a severe earth quake that hit Egypt at the time. The relics belong to two main cities, located near Alexandria, that were once prominent trade centres in Egypt.
"These finds have deep scholarly significance, giving us a greater understanding of the intermingling of Egyptian and Greek politics, religion, and aesthetics, as well as ground-breaking insights on ancient secret rituals. Discovered and removed from the depths of the Mediterranean Sea, these objects transport the viewer to another time and place, with their grandeur, scale, sheer beauty, and the rich history they represent," said Jan-Lodewijk Grootaers, curator of African art and head of Mia's Department of Arts of Africa and the Americas, in a press release.
The exhibition includes giant statues of the goddess Isis and the sphinx, as well as relics of ancient Egyptian accessories and cooking pots.
The exhibition has been touring Europe for almost four years now. It started in France in 2015, before going on to the UK, then reaching the US, where it is planned to take place in four different states.

Groundbreaking Invention and Continous Improvement
Since 1887, Cummins Allison has focused on developing new technologies that promote speed, accuracy and efficiency in money-handling and document processing.
This concentration of effort and resources has resulted in a large number of industry-first product innovations. Some of the most significant of these appear in the timeline below:


text:
Researchers looked at income and unemployment in 24 different neighborhoods and what they found was troubling. The city's poor,x` mostly minority neighborhoods were suffering from much higher unemployment rates—up to 19% in some areas—while the wealthiest, and largely white, areas had only 5% unemployment.
When we saw those numbers we thought, "Huh? But wasn't it the rich guys in the fancy neighborhoods who supposedly lost their jobs?" Apparently, not so much. The Fiscal Policy Institute blames the city's financial sector—the rich Wall Street dudes—for the recession. But it notes that the finance industry is already recovering quite nicely. (If you don't believe it, google "Wall Street bonuses.") Meanwhile, the trickle-down effect of the recession has been that lots of low- and moderate-wage workers in the outer boroughs lost their jobs.
It seems like the areas that had less to begin with were more vulnerable to the recession. We decided to compare three of the neighborhoods included in the study firsthand. NYC reporters went to the wealthy Upper West Side in Manhattan; the moderate-income Astoria/Woodside area in Queens; and a low-income Brooklyn neighborhood, East New York. In each place, we observed our surroundings, talked to local teens, and researched economic statistics to see how the neighborhood is faring.
Median Income: $92,281; Unemployment rate: 5%
As we walked out of the train station, this felt like a normal, quaint area. But upon closer inspection, there were definitely a few things that proved the neighborhood was financially on the higher end. For one, the H&H bagel store, which had chandeliers inside, sold bagels for $1.40 each (though they were worth every penny). Flashy cars, including Infinitis, BMWs, and Mercedes were parked alongside more average cars, like Nissans, Toyotas, and Jeeps.
There were lots of healthy trees, flowers, and shrubbery, and the apartment buildings were lavish, with doormen and extremely detailed architecture. You could tell those places must have sky-high rents. Along the sidewalks people walked purebred or designer dogs, like the trendy Puggle (half Pug, half Beagle). The streets were relatively clean, busy with yellow taxis, and lined with specialty stores like wine shops, a cupcake shop, home décor stores, and gourmet food groceries.
We passed a couple of private schools, both of which charge more than $30,000 a year in tuition per student. We even witnessed a mother and daughter hop into the backseat of a luxurious Cadillac SUV driven by a man in a suit, a chauffeur perhaps.
Of course, with its Puggles, expensive bagels, flashy cars, and private schools, the Upper West Side feels prestigious to me, a middle-class teenager. But to the residents of that neighborhood, it must feel quite ordinary.
—Catherine Cosmo
Jack Smith, 16, Collegiate School
Has the recession affected you or those around you?
Kind of. We downgraded apartments from a 3-bedroom to a 2-bedroom. Not that big a deal. We were probably going to do that anyway.
How do you define "rich," "poor," and "middle class"?
I'd say the annual income of someone who is rich would be $250,000 a year and then middle class would be, I guess, $50,000-100,000, and lower class would be anything less than that.
Has anyone taught you how to manage money?
My dad. He works for The Wall Street Journal, in the finance section. I invest some of my own money in the stock market sometimes and he gives me good tips. A lot of investment bankers' kids go to my school and sometimes it's kind of awkward because my dad writes about [the bankers].
Do you think the American dream of going from rags to riches is realistic?
It don't think it's realistic for everyone, but there are definitely certain cases where it's true. It would take determination and really just a dream.
How do envision your financial future?
I'm sure I'll have some sort of struggle, but I doubt I'll be in too bad shape.
Jessica Davis, 13, The Calhoun School
Has the recession affected you or those around you?
It hasn't affected my neighborhood much, but I can tell there are not as many new buildings going up.
How do you define "rich," "poor," and "middle class"?
I don't really define people by that. But I guess if I think of a rich neighborhood, it's like big houses.
Has anyone taught you how to manage money?
My parents. They tell me you don't just buy to buy. You buy what you need.
Do you think the American dream of going from rags to riches is realistic?
It depends on how hard you work and what your background is. It takes a lot of work and you have to be really smart and able, and have a good education.
Median Income: $47,513; Unemployment rate: 9%
Astoria/Woodside screams suburbia. The quiet, residential streets are lined with homes that look like something from 19th century England. The residents are friendly and diverse—there were South American, Middle Eastern, and Eastern European people all on the same block, and the small restaurants reflect that diversity. The biggest commercial section is crowded with family-oriented chain restaurants and stores, including Applebees, Starbucks, Baby Gap, and a lot more.
Compared to some other parts of Queens, Astoria/Woodside is a class higher. One thing that stood out, for example, was PetLife, a "holistic" pet supply store located in the middle of a block of beautiful homes. You wouldn't find a store like PetLife in lower-income parts of the city, because it sells expensive organic dog food and fancy dog outfits. These products aren't usually a high priority among people with lower incomes. There are also several other high-end storefronts: gyms with jacuzzis, a hot yoga center, and a tanning salon. From these things it appears that the recession hasn't affected the neighborhood much.
On the other hand, we saw a big Rent-a-Center on the main shopping street, and as we heard from Herman De Jesus (see p. 15), these stores prey on poorer people. We also met a local student who said his school was forced to cut jobs and some after-school programs due to budget cuts.
—Johane Celestin
Billy Skamnias, 15, William C. Bryant HS
Has the recession affected you or those around you?
It affected my school a little. They laid off some teachers, and [we have] fewer supplies and after-school programs.
How do you define "rich," "poor," and "middle class"?
Poor would be $25,000-30,000 a year. Middle class, $40,000-50,000. Rich would be triple digits.
Do you have friends from significantly different financial backgrounds than you?
I have friends who are poor and live in worse neighborhoods; I have friends who are rich and live in better neighborhoods. I don't really think it affects the relationship.
Do you think the American dream of going from rags to riches is realistic?
Yeah, it is. I've known people who are maybe second generation, first generation whose families came here from Greece or Italy; they opened up a small business. Then it becomes a bigger business and a bigger business. They move and make more money. I think it takes hard work and people who support you, connections.
What do you think tax money should be spent on?
Not on tearing down buildings and building new ones, especially in a recession. There's been a lot of that around where I live, but I think [tax dollars] should be spent on hospitals, public schools, and safety.
How do you envision your financial future?
I think everyone has a struggle, especially at first. If you're coming from a lower-class neighborhood, you have to work a little bit harder.
Evelina Reyes, 15, William C. Bryant HS
Has the recession affected you or those around you?
Yeah, my aunt lost her job.
How do you define "rich," "poor," and "middle class"?
I would want to help the poor out if I had a lot of money. Rich would be like, over a million dollars. Middle class would be you don't have everything you want, but you have the things you need.
Has anyone taught you how to manage money?
Some of my teachers tell us not to waste money on things we don't need, because there are people out there that really don't have much.
What do you think tax money should be spent on?
I would use tax money to help out people who need housing, food, and clothing.
Median Income: $29,907; Unemployment rate: 19%
East New York is quiet. When we got off the train, the neighborhood didn't seem very populated at first, but then we saw a woman leading a group of little kids down the sidewalk and into a building with a beautiful, colorful mural. The kids looked like they were having fun.
I think one reason it didn't seem as busy as other parts of the city is because there are more family houses than big buildings or stores. Scattered through the well-kept rowhouses are also homes with broken windows and doors with graffiti. Just like many other neighborhoods, it has some garbage lying on the sidewalk, but in general it is clean.
As we walked through the neighborhood, we only saw Hispanic and black people. We saw several churches, both Baptist and Catholic, in just a few blocks. There are a lot of closed storefronts, as if the places went out of business a while ago. The only clothing store was a place called The Discount, which had a sign saying everything was 50% off. We didn't see many delis, and actually we didn't see any supermarkets at all.
Surprisingly, there was a small farm, which is where we met a big group of teens. They all had jobs working on the farm and told us that there was a farmers market there Wednesdays and Saturdays.
—Jan Nicole Garcia and Dan Costume
Sharnay Procope, 16, East New York Family Academy
Has the recession affected you or your neighborhood?
The little bit that we have, we make do on that. With the recession and everything, that's basically taking cuts from the little we have.
How do you define "rich," "poor," and "middle class"?
I say if you have support, family, food, things like that, you're rich. I'm considered rich like that. [In terms of income,] over $80,000 a year would probably be considered rich. Middle, I would say below $20,000. Poor, maybe below a few thousand.
Has anyone taught you how to manage money?
Yes, at my job at East New York Farms they teach us how to think about things we may purchase—things we need, things we don't necessarily need.
What kind of things do you think tax dollars shouldn't be spent on?
It shouldn't be spent on things we already have a lot of. If there's an empty lot, instead of building a McDonald's there—we have a thousand of those—make it a park or some type of open space.
How do you envision your financial future?
I think I'll do well. Matter of fact, I know I'll do well.
Suetanya Joseph, 15, HS for Dual Language and Asian Studies
How do you define "rich," "poor," and "middle class"?
If you're able to afford big houses and big cars and whatnot, I think you can be considered rich. Poor is if you can't afford much. Average income for a rich person [would probably be] a million a year.
Has anyone taught you how to manage money?
Yeah. When I'm going out to get a new pair of shoes or something, or if I just got my paycheck and I want to go spend it, my family will be like, "I don't think that's a good idea. Maybe you should save your money until you want something bigger than just a pair of shoes."
Do you think the American dream of going from rags to riches is realistic?
It happens maybe not every day, but probably every month. People are unique and once the right person notices that [uniqueness] then, instantly, it's like whoa. Like getting famous or inventing something new. Instantly, it happens.
How do you envision your financial future?
I don't think I'll have to struggle. Once I get a job as a vet, I'll be good from then on, definitely.
Cost of a plain bagel:
East New York: 45¢
Astoria/Woodside: 85¢
Upper West Side: $1.40
Teens' guesses on the local family median income:
East New York: Less than $20K per year
Astoria/Woodside: $20-50K per year
Upper West Side: $60-80K per year
Teens' perceptions about what seemed "normal" varied widely depending on where they lived. The interesting thing wasn't who got closer to the real number (it's actually $55,980 in NYC), but that we assume that what's normal in our neck of the woods is normal everywhere else, too.
What we do on school vacations:
East New York: "Work," "marching band," "homework," "stay in the city"
Astoria/Woodside: "Visit family in New Jersey," "hang out in Rhode Island," "practice with my band"
Upper West Side: "Visit family in Utah or Tennessee," "go to my country house in the Catskills," "chill in the city"
How we spend our money:
East New York: necessities, clothes, food, hair
Astoria/Woodside: music, clothes, games
Upper West Side: clothes, food, movies

How to Neutralize Humidity in the Pantry
Humidity in a pantry can cause mold or mildew and can make certain types of opened food items, like crackers and cereal, soggy, stale and unappealing. If there is a direct cause, like a pet's water dish, removing that will neutralize the humidity. However, if there is an underlying cause -- for instance, if the pantry is located next to the bathroom or laundry room -- more serious actions to neutralize the humidity must be taken.
Open the door of the pantry or an pantry window, if it has one, as a good first step. Using a fan that blows outward from inside the pantry sends the humid air out into the rest of the home, where it is more easily dissipated. A window-mounted fan aimed outward sends humid air out into the atmosphere and replaces it with non-humid household air.
Place a dehumidifier inside the pantry if simply airing out the pantry doesn't work. Dehumidifiers are typically adjustable to allow you to remove some or all of the moisture, and is the surest way to get humid pantry air under control.

Local Democrat to oppose Rep. Amber Mariano
PASCO COUNTY – Daniel Endonino is announcing his candidacy for Florida House District 36 this week. Dan, a 23-year resident of Pasco County, has decided to run to represent Florida House District 36 because he is tired of representatives ignoring the will of their constituents.
As a working-class resident of Port Richey, he knows what it's like for the majority of people in his district to live and work here every day, and he is committed to defending those needs and values in Tallahassee.
By not taking donations from big corporations or PACs, he is ensuring that he will be voting in the interests of the people of West Pasco and won't be bought by a party or corporation.
Platform points include:
Education: Dan is passionate about the public school system in Pasco. He is a strong supporter of public education and believes wholeheartedly in spending our funding on the public school system. According to the annual US News Public High School Rankings, District 36 doesn't have a school ranked above #300 (Anclote-#348, Hudson-#316, Fivay-#383, Ridgewood-#455). He strongly disagrees with the recent legislative decision to fund vouchers and charter schools while diverting funding from public education.
Environment: Dan grew up swimming in the waters of Hudson Beach every weekend. Now, due to pollution and bacteria, that is impossible. Last year, Florida saw the devastating Red Tide bloom. Because this algae is always in our waters (at a low rate), we need to be vigilant about our run off, especially from large developments and sugar farms that prevent the natural filtering of overflow through the Everglades. These businesses must be held accountable in order to protect the ecosystems off of our shores. Dan also believes that, as the Sunshine State, we should be leading the charge in solar power. In order for this to improve, we need to increase the incentives for solar. Since Dan will not be taking money from big corporations, he will not be bought by big energy companies like NextEra Energy and FPL.
Health Care: Health care is an issue that Dan holds close to his heart. Due to recent brushes with being uninsured, his family has faced many hard decisions relating to necessary surgeries. Dan believes that this is not an uncommon issue in an area like Pasco County. He believes strongly that we need someone in Tallahassee to fight for coverage for the people of not only West Pasco, but all the counties like Pasco in Florida, by expanding Medicaid.
For more information go to www.danforpasco.com. To schedule a meeting or interview with Dan, please contact his communications director, Kacy Vance.


text: Rising UK singer/songwriter Sinéad Harnett yesterday dropped her very beautifully soulful and sultry new single, Body. A record which finds the very beautifully talented singer over the delicate dense and soulfully sultry chords of the GRADES production, singing the very beautifully sultry lyrics with her very soothingly beautiful and soulfully delicate vocals that are very reminiscent of the late great Aaliyah, but you can tell are still her own. As she sings about a playful fantasy of inviting somebody to come touch and give her all, "her body", and the way her beautifully smooth voice just calmly puts you in a daze, while also soothing your soul and heart, is like no other. A voice that's so recognizable and such a signature sound, you can tell is hers as soon as you hear it for the very first time. Sinéad herself explaining the following in a statement about the new single, "I was inspired by finding myself in a situation I wasn't ready to leave, but that had to end. GRADES always seems to nr around when something dramatic like that is going on. He started playing the 'Body' chords & the song came straight away. Conceptually it was a fantasy but in reality it was a 'goodbye' song for me." The very sultry new song, is one of those classic soulfully sultry slow jams that as soon as you hear the densely delicate sultry chords and Harnett's beautifully sultry soothing vocals, you know is a timeless classic that will make many people either lose their virginity and/or get somebody pregnant.

Schools as Effective Learning Communities collaborative project
C-PEER is leading a first-of-its-kind collaborative learning project working with schools and districts in the Denver metro region. Doctoral candidate and faculty researchers from the University of Colorado Denver School of Education & Human Development and the University of Denver Morgridge College of Education have worked with Denver area schools and districts to co-design a study of effective learning community systems in schools. We are now recruiting schools to be co-participants in the 2015/16 school year. Aside from the collaborative design, the model is unique in the support of participating schools.
Schools that participate will receive their data trend analysis, created specifically in formats to help with the required completion of the state Unified Improvement Plan and to aid in annual strategic planning. At the conclusion of the project (February 2016), schools will receive a custom report of the project findings, which we will review with the leadership team to help ensure the information is useful to continued improvement planning.
Focus of the 2015 work:
This year we focus on understanding "effective learning community" systems. Effective school learning communities (in the classroom, among the staff, and in relationship to school leadership and to district supports) work together to support or hinder student learning growth and social-emotional growth. We will collect data to help schools understand how school structures and resources (e.g., time, curriculum/instructional programs, access, procedures), climate (e.g., trust, leadership systems), and personal aspects (e.g., teachers' efficacy, student persistence and motivation) intersect. In the initial phase of the project, a special focus will be on identifying effective supports for professional learning, creative and critical thinking (essential for new standards as well as for student intrinsic motivation), coaching for equity, and supporting English language learners. Some Denver Public Schools may also be able to opt-in to a deeper study of teachers' use of time, investigating ways to support teachers in being able to focus on the most important aspects of their jobs.
For more information about participation in the study, fill out the short request for information HERE

Reviews of Evidence
We'll be adding reviews of evidence on top-priority education-related topics here. Each will have a summary paper, but we'll also present each topic area with a graphical representation of the key issues relevant to the topic, in a "click-and-drill-down" style so that readers can go into depth if they wish. For now, we include the following draft version of a comprehensive review of research related. Check back for the more detailed reference version as well as additional topic areas (or, join our network to receive notices when new resources are posted).

From fat to fit!Credit: M McMaster
I am living proof that you can gain 22lbs in 8 weeks and lose it again in 8 weeks! I know it can be done because I have done it and have helped friends achieve the same results, without fail.
A few years ago while training for a multi-stage mtb event I took a heavy fall on a mountain trail and broke my collar-bone. And quickly discovered that if you carry on eating like your riding 2hrs a day you gain weight - rapidly! This is how I lost 22lbs in 8 weeks once I'd recovered.
You can lose weight if you follow this routine and whats more, lose weight quickly and consistently. I suggest before you follow any of these tips you visit your GP and have a check-up and run through your intended programme.
There are 5 basic steps you need to COMMIT to and follow strictly if you want to achieve these results. It is said it takes 21 days to make or break a habit, so the first three weeks will be your toughest, then you'll find it gets so much easier.
"You are what your deep, driving desire is. As your desire is, so is your will. As your will is, so is your deed. As is your deed is, so is your destiny" - The Upanishads
Step 1: Diet
No more sugar! Cut sugar out of your diet for the next 8 weeks, no sugar with your tea or coffee, no sweets, biscuits, doughnuts, fizzy drinks etc. You need to follow the plan. Your daily diet needs to consist of the following;
- Breakfast - a smoothie (you can vary the recipe daily)
- Snacks - a small handful of nuts or fruit or seeds (I mix these together and keep them in a canister on my desk and on the kitchen counter, and grab a small handful twice a day)
- Lunch - a low-fat, diet fuel, protein shake. There are many varieties on the market, choose one you like but check carbs and calories on the label. This should be mixed with water, not milk.
- Afternoon - a piece of fruit
- Dinner - a juice ( I'll give you a link to a great juice site www.juicemaster.com ) 5 nights per week. One night of grilled veg, chicken, fish and one night you can spoil yourself, within reason.
If you find you are still hungry you can supplement your daily intake with an extra serving of the protein shake but only on the days you exercise.
Step 2: Exercise
This can be the biggest stumbling block for many people so I have found a way to simplify things. I did 45 - 90 mins exercise 5 -6 days per week, but more because I enjoy riding and running and I live and work in an environment where its easy to do so.Â
You HAVE TO exercise! It doesn't matter if it's a brisk 45 min walk to start with but this step is not negotiable! No exercise, no weight loss. Start with two short sessions a day if you have to. But write out and exercise plan, stick it up on your cupboard or mirror and follow it!Â
There is also a great exercise plan detailed in the book PACE by Al Sears, the link is below.
Step 3: Supplements
This is a huge key to losing the weight you want to and I'll detail below how I took them and what the benefit is:
- Aminoliq - a great source if amino acids that your body needs and a very good fat burner. Take in the morning half an hour before exercise or breakfast and before lunch and dinner as recommended.
- Any good multi-vitamin - supplements a healthy diet. Every morning with breakfast smoothie.
- Protein shake - look for a meal replacement/diet fuel variety. Mid-morning and in the afternoon if needed and you are exercising for more than 45 mins.
- An Elixir - daily boost of energy. I always took this around midday or early afternoon.
Step 4: Tea
You might be frowning as you read this but hear me out. There are some amazing teas on the market and if you want to lose weight they are a great source of help. Get yourself a good detoxifying tea, there are many to choose from, find one you like and have a tall glass each day. When our bodies are toxic they do not process fat properly, a good detox tea will cleanse your system and enable your body to process efficiently and effectively - don't skip this step!
Step 5: Water
Natures miracle juice. Drink at least 2lt of water each day, when you awaken in the morning the first thing you need to do is drink 500ml of water, keep hydrated all day. Very often when we feel hungry we are actually thirsty, so drink water often during the day, cut out the coffee. Hot water with lemon is also a great detox drink and will help keep your vitamin C level up which will prevent flu and colds, you can add a few slices of fresh ginger to this drink.
Step 6: Sleep
Our bodies need rest, especially when we are detoxifying and exercising. Try and get a minimum of 7hrs per night. The other positive is that when you're sleeping you aren't tempted to cheat and eat.
Step 7: Weigh - in
You need to weigh in each day, at the same time. You can do this first thing in the morning (before pouring 500ml of water down your throat) or last thing at night. Put a chart up in your bathroom to check your progress, it's a great motivator. Some days you won't have dropped weight, that's fine because the next day you'll see a sudden drop, just keep at it! The rewards are fabulous.
Step 8: Equipment
Get yourself a good pair of running shoes, for walking or running. A heart rate monitor is a great asset too, for monitoring your exercise level each day. A good bathroom scale. A food blender or juicer.
Step 9: Follow the plan
Follow the plan, try to wake up each morning, drink your water and get your exercise done. Not everyone likes to exercise early but it is a great way of boosting your metabolism and heart rate for the day, get your body burning calories early. It is important to stick to meal times and eat your snacks regularly, this helps stimulate your metabolism, dont starve yourself that way your body holds onto fat for when it needs it.Â
I lost weight rapidly over the first three weeks and then it steadied and I lost about 2lbs per week until I reached my goal weight, once there I maintained a healthy diet, less stringent but no sugar rich foods and lots of water. I have maintained a healthy weight since then and am now a huge ambassador for "juicing" - it's a marvellous way to nourish your body.
Good luck and enjoy the new you in 8 weeks, even if you don't lose all the weight you wanted to, keep at it, the benefit of feeling healthy will be reward enough. All my friends who have followed these steps have reached their goal, and those that adjusted their lifestyle slightly are still looking and feeling great.
Good luck and have fun!

Liverpool legend and current Barcelona ace Luis Suarez will not be joining Manchester United, but in fairness, we new that anyway.
Stories which suggested the Uruguayan could quit Spain for a world-record fee did the rounds last week, but to us they made absolutely no sense – mainly because of how much the 29-year-old wanted to leave England when he was playing here for us…
Report names Liverpool's asking price for Coutinho, but we don't believe it
The reports emanated from Spain, but were picked up English journalists, such as here in ESPN, which got fans of United and Liverpool speculating over whether the biggest transfer in the history of football could happen.
"We read, we listen, we see this news, but of course, our interest in this particular case is that Luis Suarez is happy at Barcelona," president Josep Maria Bartomeu told Sky Sports, cited in the Mirror.
"We are trying to extend his contract with Barcelona.
"He is one of our big future efforts because he is still young, he has a vision, a lot of ambition."
Suarez is already at the club of his dreams and we hope this is the end of any pointless rumours, especially ones linking him to our most bitter rivals.
His parent club don't want him to leave, the player wants to stay and Manchester United are the last club he'd join.
Moving on!

Support – Synology – Network Attached Storage (NAS) DSM 5.0-4493 Update 5.
Synology has released another DSM 5 update. Only two fixes listed but one of them is a security fix:
Fixed a vulnerability that could allow servers to accept unauthorized access.
I updated my DS212J and DS1511+ without incident. While I do use encrypted folders I haven't had a problem so I can't verify that it fixed anything.
I'll update my DS212+ at the end of the day and post an update if I have any issues. The update of my DS212+ also went fine.

This week my guest is Carly Davis, Missions Coordinator for South East Asia Prayer Center. SEAPC works among the people in the platform that the Lord creates, such as healthcare, parenting, microeconomic development, and education while praying the Lord's blessing upon the Nation.
[00:01:39] SEAPC overview, and a little of the story that started it all.
[00:05:58] Carly talks about her role as Missions Coordinator, helping people use their gifts and talents. She shares about a woman who thought her job was holding her back from ministry, only to find it was preparing her. That's often how it is, but God is in control.
[00:11:54] How prayer paved the way for schools in an entire province of Cambodia to be renewed.
[00:18:52] SEAPC is known for prayer, and particularly prayer walking. It's just what it says. Walking and praying. Praying and walking. "Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you, as I said unto Moses." (Joshua 1:3, KJV)

JCU Alumna Anna Bottinelli Discusses Her Work with The Monuments Men Foundation
John Cabot University's alumna Anna Bottinelli (Class of 2010) is a young, committed and passionate art scholar who works to preserve the memory of the Monuments Men as she explained in her talk to the JCU community on March 6th.
The well-known movie The Monuments Men starring George Clooney, Matt Damon and Cate Blanchett has brought attention to a hidden chapter of WW2: the enormous amount of art works stolen all over Europe by the Nazi during their occupation.
The small group of scholars, architects, and archivists that during WW2 decided to join the army to preserve churches, monuments and museums and bring back the stolen pieces was unfortunately not able to complete its work. There are still paintings, old books and sculptures that have not been found.
Anna, with Robert Edsel's researching team of the Monuments Men Foundation for the Preservation of Art, daily researches all over Italy to return the missing works of art to the rightful owners. As she says "we want to preserve the memory of the Monuments Men who risked their lives to save art and to complete their mission."
Anna has not been directly involved in the research behind the book The Monuments Men: Allied Heroes, Nazi Thieves and the Greatest Treasure Hunt in History published in 2009 but has contributed to the launch of its translation into Italian, in May 2013. She has extensively researched on Italy since 2010 contributing to the writing of Saving Italy: The Race to Rescue a Nation's Treasure from the Nazis (2013) a sort of sequel of The Monuments Men but focused on what the Monuments Men did in Italy. She also continues in helping with the restitution of stolen artworks and pieces such as eight books from the University of Naples found by an American soldier in the bombed city of Minturno on the Gustav line.
Anna joined the Monuments Men Foundation when still a JCU student thanks to an email forwarded by her Art History Professor Lila Yawn. As Anna said "without such close relationship with professors I wouldn't have had such an opportunity."

Now in full disclose you are you are going to see me struggle a bit with this and wanted to share so you can learn from my mistakes as one of them was tapping above the horizon in Tapfly. As the camera needs to lock an "object" so it needs (or at least what it seems to be asking for).
Also notice how quick the battery runs down on RTH as that surprised me so expect about 8min functional time with about 4min or less for RTH.

Press Release
From: Langley Research Center
Posted: Thursday, June 8, 2017
Eight teams of university students will take part in a NASA challenge to come up with ways of extracting water from ice on Mars so that humans can survive there for a long time.
June 14 is the media's opportunity to cover the challenge, which is being held at NASA Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia. News media are invited to the event from 10 a.m. to noon in Langley's research aircraft hangar.
The teams will work on drawing water from simulated Martian subsurface ice stations. Each station will consist of solid blocks of ice covered in a mix of clay and rock about three feet deep.
Students, faculty, and other subject-matter experts will be available for interviews. News media should contact Michael Finneran at 757-864-6110 or email@example.com for access to NASA Langley. The event also will be the subject of a Facebook Live broadcast from:
https://www.facebook.com/FollowNASA360/ and a story on the 'NASA' Snapchat and Instagram accounts.
NASA's Mars Ice Challenge is part of an effort by the agency to enable a sustained human presence on other worlds by taking advantage of the resources on them. This will be a focus for NASA over the next few decades, and the challenge offers a unique way to engage students and faculty as partners in the efforts to send humans farther into space than ever before.
The Mars Ice Challenge is being held in conjunction with NASA Langley's centennial celebration activities and is supported by the National Institute of Aerospace in Hampton.
The teams are: Colorado School of Mines, University of Pennsylvania, University of Tennessee-Knoxville, North Carolina State University, University of Texas at Austin, Alfred University in New York, and two teams from West Virginia University.

Find Out: Are Cub Scouts Part of Boy Scouts?
If you're a parent new to Cub Scouting or even in the beginning phases of learning about Scouting in general, we're here to answer the questions you may not want to utter aloud. First up: Are Cub Scouts part of Boy Scouts? Let's get right to the point – Yes, Cub Scouts is one of the Boy Scouts of America's youth development programs. But the Cub Scouts program is distinct from the Boy Scouts program. As Bryan of Bryan on Scouting explained, "The difference between Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts encompasses critical categories like group structure, leadership, parental involvement, earning awards and camping." Cub Scouting is tailored to boys 7 to 11 years old. When boys finish fifth grade, they can enter the Boy Scouts program. Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts are part of what you'll often hear referred to as the Scouting movement.
A Brief History of Cub Scouts
Officially launching in 1930, Cub Scouting came to the U.S. from Lord Baden-Powell's U.K. pilot program (called Wolf Cubbing). The program's mission was to introduce boys to Scouting's value at a young age without introducing activities developed for the older boys. Instead, the program created activities to wholly engage and develop the youngest of men. While Cub Scouts simply enjoyed fun activities with friends, the program stealthily helped them learn. In fact, a recent Tufts University study showed boys who spent time in Scouting had higher positive character attributes. That means they were more cheerful, helpful, kind, obedient, trustworthy, and hopeful than boys outside of Scouting. Right from the start, Cub Scouting relied on parents who volunteered and guided their sons' adventures. Women immediately took a very active role launching the program, hosting Cub Scout dens, and leading activities. Many men joined in volunteer roles, as well. Since then, Cub Scouting's aim to build strong, smart, kind boys has remained unchanged, while program specifics have evolved with each generation. One example of this is the entry age. Some areas around the country are opening up Cub Scouting to Kindergarteners via the Lion Pilot Program. Age-appropriate activities have been developed for Lions to ensure fun and awesome experiences, while introducing the concepts of character and leadership.
Learn More About Scouting
The Boy Scouts of America has a long tradition of delivering values-driven programs that build character and leadership skills. Sometimes, understanding the depth of the program takes a little time. If you have questions like, "Are Cub Scouts part of Boy Scouts?" let us know. And if you're interested in getting your son involved in Cub Scouting, visit beascout.scouting.org.

Leasing a Car
What to watch for when leasing a car.
Our Work It Out pages offer in-depth, step-by-step guidance for dealing with a legal problem from start to finish.
Easy-to-read Need to Know pages offer tips and highlights.
What to watch for when leasing a car.
What to do if you have problems with a car repair.
Steps to avoid being ripped off when buying a used car.
"When I bought a car privately last year, my sister suggested I do a lien check. I laughed. I had no idea what a lien was; why search for one?! I had found a Mazda on Craigslist. I took it for a test drive, my mechanic inspected it, the price was good. I bought it. It wasn't until the car was towed by a bailiff that I learned the seller had used the car as collateral on a loan. The bank seized my car under the lien it held. I had no idea they could just tow away my car even though I didn't owe them a cent."
– William, Richmond
Each year, British Columbians buy more than 400,000 used vehicles, double the number of new vehicles purchased. Of the used vehicles bought in the province, a third are private sales, where the risks of fraud can be greater than when buying from a car dealer.
Whether you are buying privately or from a dealer, here are seven steps you can take to reduce the chances of being a victim of fraud when buying a used car.
When you're buying a used car, it's always important to give the inside and the outside a thorough inspection and take a test drive to make sure the car is in the same condition as the seller is advertising. Arrange to view the car in daylight, preferably when it's dry. It's harder to spot damage to the car if it's wet.
ICBC has a checklist of what to look for when inspecting a used car and taking it for a test drive.
Make sure the vehicle identification number on the car—known as the VIN—matches the number on the vehicle registration form. The most common places to find the VIN are on the dashboard identification plate or the inside door panel on the driver's side.
Check that the VIN has not been tampered with. Signs of tampering include loose or mismatched rivets, scratched numbers, tape, glue or paint. If the VIN has been tampered with, it's a sign the vehicle may have been stolen.
Look at the actual odometer.
Particularly if you're buying a car from a private seller, it's important to check for liens. A lien is a legal claim made on someone else's property to make sure they pay a debt. Liens are attached to a vehicle, not to its owner. If you buy a vehicle with a lien on it and the previous owner fails to pay a debt, the lien holder can take the vehicle from you as payment.
In BC, liens are registered in the Personal Property Registry in Victoria.
For $10, you can do a lien search on the car yourself:
Alternatively, you can also use a private company that searches titles or provides vehicle history reports. For example, CarProof provides Canada-wide lien information—including BC results—as part of its vehicle history report.
A vehicle history report can tell you if the car has previously been in an accident, reported stolen, or written off and later repaired and returned to the road. Some vehicle history reports will also tell you if the seller still owes money on the car.
You can order a vehicle history report through ICBC (for $20) or a private company such as CarProof (for $40 to $70).
Get an independent, licensed mechanic to give the car a detailed inspection. An independent inspection usually costs around $100 to $200, depending on the mechanic and the extent of the inspection.
If the seller is resisting having an independent inspection done ("the car's in great shape, I just had it fully checked out!"), that's often a red flag. Insist that you get an inspection done. As a consumer, it's your right to have an independent inspection.
The seller may ask you to provide a deposit or sign an offer to purchase prior to having the car inspected. You can insist that any deposit you make be refundable and that any documentation you sign say that you are not bound to go through with the sale until you approve the results of the inspection.
Never agree to pay for the car upfront or send money via wire transfer. While a small deposit can be a great way to let the seller know you're serious about purchasing the car, don't hand over the full amount to the seller until the day the car is ready to go home with you.
If the seller requests an escrow service (a third party that acts as a go between you and the seller), investigate the service to make sure it's legitimate and secure. Many online escrow sites are fraudulent.
Learn more about how to protect yourself when buying a used car, and the steps to negotiate and finalize the sale.

I am a travel agent from Malaysia, and this is my 4th trek with Mountain World Treks, and as always the guides, porters and every arrangement made by the company has and gone beyond my high expectations. My first trip with MWT was in 2017, and since then i have always chosen MWT as my trekking company in Nepal. I just had 2 of my company trips this year with them (EBC-Chola Pass & Mardi Himal Base Camp trek), and all my clients/trekkers had fun-filled, pleasant, and most importantly safe and comfortable trip. Personally, what i like most about MWT is their number of years of experience. Saligram Aryal, the founder and MD of Mountain World Treks, has years of exposure to various roles within the mountain guiding industry since his younger days. His knowledge on the preparations, conditioning, honest guidance on day to day energy distribution needed for mountain treks/climbs always came handy to all my teams. And i have seen all this plus points translated very well to every guides/staff of his team. Specifically for my April 2019 EBC - Chola Pass trip, MWT Guides Suresh and Dinesh were fantastic, and had high level of professionalism and the trip was very successful. Thank you MWT! I will continue to engage MWT and Sali's team for all my upcoming trips. Keep up your good work.[ Back ]

Things this year have been anything but normal, but one thing has thankfully is consistent: Nordstrom still wants you to save an excessive amount of money this summer. The department store giant is back with their semi-annual Anniversary Sale and the savings are worth taking a look.
If you are looking to upgrade your summer workout or Work From Home apparel, our picks are a great place to start. Ahead, we listed some of the most affordable threads hiding in the promotion, which are already selling out fast. From leggings to transitional outerwear, scroll on to see what we found. We also included helpful reviews in case you're having seconds thoughts or need an extra vote of confidence.
"I've had these for almost a year now and I cannot day enough good things! I live in the Rocky Mountains in Colorado, and I mostly do outdoor activities in these. I rock climb, hike 14'ers, scramble over ridges, run trails, and more in these and I they never fail. They're never too hot, they truly do swick sweat away. And NEVER ride down, 12 mile hikes and I don't have to pull them up once. They're better than my Lululemon Wunder Under leggings, and they constantly go on sale so you can get them for a great deal."
"So good I immediately ordered a second pair in the other color. These were a great price during NSale! The fabric is so soft, buttery and warm but still feels quality and definitely not see-thru. Love the large pockets and the stitching. I am 5'4' with a long torso and short legs and am thrilled that I will not have to get these hemmed. I typically wear a small in leggings and I found the Zella Restore Soft Pocket Lounge Leggings to be true to size."
"This was my first time purchasing Zella yoga pants. I've always bought Lululemon. The quality of these pants are awesome. I love the fit and support. I am very happy with my purchase!"
"Great jacket. Comfortable, soft, love the thumb holes! Fit was expected - slightly fitted - so sized up to a Medium for more room and comfort. Will be perfect for the cooler weather and to wear running. I also love that it isn't a boxy fit and gives you shape."
"This is my favorite workout top and top to wear with jeans and skirts. I first bought the black one. Then I got the heather midnight at the sale and I just bought the white. Yes, it DOES run very small. If you have a larger frame and are bigger busted, this probably isn't the top for you. I'm a 34A and can wear the XS or S. The ribbing dresses it up and the fabric is stretch and substantial. I love the cute back!"
"This tank is perfect for summer. Goes great with leggings or shorts. It's slightly over sized as the picture shows, but looks perfect with the Free People Adella bralette underneath."
"This is way cuter in person. It's cotton and woven tight. Full cut so if you are in between sizes, go down."
"This is my favorite workout top. So soft, comfortable, and flattering. I can't wait to get more colors!"

Audinate and Bose Professional will launch the AV Networking Roadshow, a new series of training events focussing on Audinate's Dante audio-over-IP networking technology, at InfoComm MEA in Dubai. The first one-day sessions, entitled 'Introduction to AV Networking', will run on 15 and 16 October from 11am to 5pm, with support from Atterotech and Digital Audio Labs.
Intended for AV (and IT) professionals who have "a novice or intermediate understanding of AV networking", the sessions will discuss "the current state of audio networking and control for AV systems, emerging technologies and trends in AV networking". The instructor-led training will use a variety of components from Bose and other participating manufacturers, and provides an opportunity to learn audio networking theory, design and implementation through interactive, hands-on sessions using Dante technology.
Presenters include Kieran Walsh, senior technical solutions manager at Audinate, and Biju Abdul Majeed, design engineer, for Bose. The sessions are eligible for InfoComm RU credits.
Darryl Bryans, product line manager, DSP, at Bose Professional, explains: "The AV Networking Roadshow is a great way to quickly come up to speed on the latest information regarding audio networking and to get some hands-on experience using Dante audio networking technology and a variety of products. We're pleased to be working together with Audinate and the other participating manufacturers to offer these sessions in Dubai and beyond. By the end of the day, participants should be able to confidently implement and install a Dante-enabled system."
"As the market leader in media networking, Audinate believes that one of the ways people can fully appreciate just how easy Dante is to install, integrate and use is to support our OEM partners in educating their customers," adds Ervin Grinberg, director of marketing for Audinate. "Dante is the most requested networking technology, and we are pleased to showcase the benefits regionally to present this hands-on, comprehensive, well-thought-out programme."
Each day's session, which includes lunch, is limited to 50 attendees, and can be enrolled on when registering for the show. Future AV Networking Roadshow events are being scheduled for Germany, Britain, Japan and the US (New York City, Los Angeles and Chicago).
InfoComm MEA will take place from 13–16 October at the Dubai World Trade Centre, UAE.

(NewsUSA) - Attacking weeds without doing your research could lead to some unsightly brown patches. So, how do you rid your lawn of pesky weeds without harming your grass?
The following tips can help you defend your lawn against weeds:
* Choose the best herbicide to kill the weeds. Most herbicides fall into two categories: selective and non-selective. You'll need a selective herbicide to kill the weeds in established lawns or on small patches around trees, shrubs and flower beds.
Choose a non-selective herbicide for large jobs or where you don't want any plants to grow, like on concrete and brick walkways, driveways, patios and around fences.
Take a few minutes to read labels carefully. Labels should clearly tell you whether a herbicide is selective or non-selective. Remember, non-selective kills any vegetation it comes into contact with, while selective herbicides control only the weeds listed on the label, and do not harm non-target plants.
* Consider the size of the area that you'll be treating. Selective and non-selective herbicides typically come with three choices for application: concentrate, ready-to-spray and ready-to-use. For large areas, use a concentrated formula, mix it with water and apply with a tank sprayer, or use a ready-to-spray bottle with a hose-end attachment. For spot treatments, a ready-to-use spray bottle will suffice.
* Time your attack wisely. For optimal results, apply herbicides on a sunny day when temperatures are 60 degrees or higher. If there's any chance of rain, hold off until a drier day. Always read and follow label directions carefully. Different products have different usages and application rates.
* Know what to expect. Once the herbicide dries, you don't have to worry about the rain washing it away. However, because many herbicides only kill what's there -- they aren't preventative -- you'll have to deal with new weeds as they appear.

1. This will probably be a scripted event with NPCs.
2. Can someone verify that this event is on EU servers too.
3. Will we actually listen the songs?

Ireland hooker Rory Best has said that the Lions must go all out if they want to beat the All Blacks next month.
Being one of the men who beat the All Blacks with Ireland in the November internationals, he looks to have the experience; along with the other Ireland players, that will be key in overturning the All Blacks. Best has said to Euro Sport that; "This modern-day All Blacks side is so difficult to beat. They have so many attacking weapons, and they will always score tries,".
He continued to say; "You have to put pressure on them…" if you want to win, which was evident when Ireland beat the All Blacks with a score of 40-29 at Solider Field, after a valiant display of attacking Rugby.
Who thinks that Best's theory could lead to another All Blacks defeat next month?

President Trump said on Thursday that he would "certainly" invite North Korean leader Kim Jong Un to the United States if their upcoming summit in Singapore on June 12 goes well.
While taking questions from the press during a joint press conference with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, Trump replied to the Daily Caller's Saagar Enjeti: "Maybe we'll start with the White House. What do you think?"
Trump also said he hopes to be able to normalize relations with North Korea, and that a formal agreement to end the Korean war is "absolutely" possible. The war has technically been active since a 1953 armistice.
"Normalizing relations is something that I would expect to do...There are a lot of good factors lined up for North Korea. ... It has tremendous potential because the people are great, and we would certainly like to see normalization," Trump said.
To that end...

Well that was interesting! @POTUS tells me if the meeting in Singapore goes well that he will inviting Kim Jong Un to the White House!— Saagar Enjeti (@esaagar) June 7, 2018
Trump and Kim are set to meet at the Capella Hotel in Singapore on June 12. While many details remain shrouded in mystery, the White House has sought to downplay the summit - describing it as the first step in a "process" towards full denuclearization.
Following a visit to the White House by North Korean envoy, Kim Yong Chol, President Trump announced that the previously canceled summit was back on.
Trump said that a letter hand delivered by Former North Korean spy chief Kim Yong Chol was "very nice," and "very interesting," and that it would be a big mistake if the summit did not take place.
The letter from Mr. Kim was described as fairly basic, according to one foreign government official who was briefed on the contents. It expresses the North Korean leader's interest in meeting without making any significant concessions or threats. The Kim lieutenant delivering the letter, Gen. Kim Yong Chol, who is under U.S. sanctions for his role in cyberattacks against American companies, is expected to remain in the U.S. until Saturday, the official said. -WSJ
On the topic of denuclearization, Trump said "I think they want to do that, I know they want to do that. They want other things along the line. They want to develop as a country."
In comments to reporters last Thursday before boarding Air Force One, President Trump said that talks between US and North Korean diplomats were going "very well."
They better go well if Kim wants a trip to the White House and that McDonald's...

In clicking over to read this post, you're probably wondering what the difference between an A/B and a B/A is. I'll start by saying it's more than simple word order.
I had an epiphany a few weeks back whilst discussing blogging with another author. He was telling me how blogging felt like a chore, something he only did because it would promote the sale if his book. I, on the other hand, love to blog. It's fun for me. My first experiences in writing for public consumption came by way of my humor blog, which I started a year before I even considered writing a novel.
My epiphany was this: my friend is an author/blogger, whereas I am a blogger/author. Realizing this took a lot of stress – stress I didn't even know I had – off my shoulders.
I released my first novel just over four months ago…

I'm doing a simple Oneway Analysis, ~10 groups each with # of data points ranging up to 20.
I noticed that there are 2 95% CIs that are calculated:
1. One set for each group in the Means and Std Dev report below the chart, where CIs are calculated off of the Std Dev of each individual group
2. One set for the Anova, where the Std Dev of all groups are assumed to be the same (calculated off of the Std Dev of the entire population).
The chart shows the mean diamonds, which shows #2 option above.
However, 2 of my groups have significantly higher std dev, and I'd like that to be reflected in my chart and CIs.
My questions are:
1. Is there a way to get the Upper/Lower CIs from the "Mean & Std Dev" report to show up on the graph?
2. Is there a reason not to do this?
Thanks in advance.
There are no labels assigned to this post.

History of Esports
In 1972, students at Stanford University got together to play in a video game competition for the 1962 video game called Spacewar. Dubbed as the Intergalactic Spacewar Olympics, 24 students competed in matches for the ultimate grand prize: A 12-month subscription to Rolling Stone Magazine. Almost five decades later, this event is looked back as the world's first esports tournament.
Esports continued to grow through the 80's, and saw its first boom in the 1990s with the growing popularity of PC gaming. Games like Quake (1996) and Starcraft (1998) saw thousands of players competing in tournaments each year. Esports growth exploded into the 21st Century with games like League of Legends and the livestreaming service Twitch, both of which remain hugely influential to this day.
Esports Goes to College
In 2014, Robert Morris University became the first college in the United States to offer esports in varsity athletics. Other colleges quickly followed suit, and in 2016 the National Association of Collegiate Esports (NACE) was established at the nation's first Collegiate Esports Summit in Kansas City, MO. What began with seven institutions now features more than 170 NACE institutions set to compete in 2020-2021 academic year.

Torture Time in Tinsel Town.
This shocking photograph released today shows the recent torture of a Santa prisoner of war in a Snowman labour camp. Evidently, The Santas are forced to stand for days in a window and listen to country music christmas songs on strange devices that light up and cause involuntary checking of email. When asked about the Frosties, the Santas said "they are cold so cold". 7 news has also uncovered that The Frosties and The Snowmen are actually part of the same terror cell and aim to rid the world of alliteration. This is an aim that we at 7 news strongly object.
