Prince Harry officially opened the Field of Remembrance yesterday at Westminster Abbey. In a small ceremony, Prince Harry placed a small wooden cross with his Royal Emblem in the ground alongside thousands upon thousands of other crosses. Uniformed members of The Royal Navy, the Army and the Royal Air Force were out in force for this solemn occasion with individual plots for each group to pay their respects for comrades from their own units.
Nick Booth and David Wiseman were invited as guests of The Poppy Factory to represent the Endeavour Fund and The Royal Foundation of The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Harry. The Poppy Factory has been in existence for over 90 years making poppies, crosses and wreaths for The Royal Family and The Royal British Legion's Poppy Appeal. In recent years, The Poppy Factory has transformed itself into a thoroughly modern charity. As well as providing work for disabled veterans at its HQ in Richmond, The Poppy Factory uses its unique expertise to help its clients find work with many commercial organisations all over the UK.
At a lunch following the ceremony David was honoured to speak alongside Her Serene Highness Princess Marie-Therese Von Hohengerg. Her Serene Highness is the Great Granddaughter of Archduke Franz Ferdinand and she spoke about how her family history and the murder of her Great Grandparents are intertwined with that of the Great war.
David spoke of the present and looking to the future saying that: "It is right that we remember the past. But it is also right to remember those who return. Do not to feel pity for their scars and never write them off. As damaged. As broken. As fragile. Because many of them draw from their experiences, good and bad in order to have futures that shine."

I rescued my dog, Kylie about a year and a half ago and decided to purchase pet insurance for her since she had full blown staff infection when I got her and vet said that she was likely to have multiple health issues down the road given her breed (Beagle and Cocker Spaniel mix, we believe) being prone to ear infections as well. Lucky I did purchase this insurance, because it turns out she's also got Pica where she is prone to eat non-digestible items requiring multiple vet visits involving x-rays and radiographs (luckily no exploratory surgery yet). I live alone and off of a relatively low income, so I cannot say how wonderful it is to have peace of mind about taking her to the vet when she starts showing symptoms of having ingested another item knowing that I will get all but fifty dollars of the bill back (I have a $50 deductible per incident). Pet Plan has always been wonderful about sending me a check within 2 weeks of faxing claim and they have refunded me everything but cost of food vet has prescribed thus far. I looked at several different insurance policies before deciding on Pet Plan and could not be happier with my decision. Their customer support is wonderful too, everyone has always been very friendly and helpful on the phone. You will not regret the peace of mind that comes with choosing Pet Plan to insure your beloved pet.

Clarissa Cupéro's debut ep starts with the confident rocker "I've Got Your Number" which puts the emphasis on her stunning vocals. She reminds me
of a young Alanis Morrissette or a feistier Sheryl Crow.
"La Sombra" sung in Spanish is passionate and poignant while reaching the high energy of the previous number. "Life is a Moment" is a sensitive ballad that
also brings out the best in Cupéro's vocals. Her passionate delivery really nails the songs message of hope. It's a stunning debut and Cupéro
should go far on this evidence.

Example of good ethical practice in the industry
Good practice in dealing with Modern Slavery
The CIOB is calling for greater industry collaboration to eradicate unfair labour practices. Clients and tier one organisations need to take greater responsibility for their supply chains. Priority should be given to tackling illegal recruitment fees, according to a new report Building a fairer system: tackling modern slavery in construction supply chains.
The report, produced in consultation with a number of businesses and NGOs, including Amnesty International, Verité, Engineers Against Poverty and the Institute for Human Rights and Business, examines the root causes of slavery, and sets out priority actions for moving the industry towards greater transparency.
Slavery remains a problem hidden in many sectors. The International Labour Organization estimates that there are 21 million people in forced labour around the world, generating profits in the private economy of $150 billion. Interpol estimates that only 5 to 10 per cent of cases are ever reported.
With its fragmented supply chains, opaque procurement processes and high demand for migrant labour, the construction sector faces a unique set of challenges in tackling human rights abuses. It is a priority area for the UK's first Anti-Slavery Commissioner, Kevin Hyland OBE, who writes a foreword for the report.
It is crucial to remember that the UK Modern Slavery Act 2015 doesn't just affect businesses in the UK, but actually relates to supply chains extending across the globe. The wording of the Act is such that any company with a footprint in the UK that provides or contracts goods or services in the UK has to comply, regardless of where their Headquarters are.
While the UK are leading the way with this Act, other regions are now following suit with efforts to combat modern slavery, and a number of countries are now passing or attempting to pass similar legislation of their own.
Two major UK construction companies with significant shares in companies operating in Qatar have been in the public eye for alleged modern slavery offences. This demonstrated a lack of due diligence and the UK construction companies could not offer a defence of not knowing. Going forward, fully investigative and rigorous auditing will be carried out.
In addition, Qatar, are being held to account by Global initiatives. In March 2016, the International Labour Organisation (ILO) filed a complaint concerning the non-observance of the Forced Labour Convention. In response, Qatar is proposing to introduce a new law to end the kafala system. Under this system, workers can only work for their sponsor and cannot change employer or leave the country without their employer's approval. The ILO has asked to see proof these law changes are working, otherwise, a commission of inquiry could be launched in March 2017. Real transformation will take time but it is encouraging that so many countries are actively taking steps to address the situation.
Now discuss below, your views on Modern Slavery. Does it happen? Are you aware of it? What will it mean for people in your country?

I will always have the honour of having been the Celebrant for Patria and Julian.
They married on Saturday, 10 February 2007, at the Band Rotunda
(damaged by the earthquakes unfortunately). It was a lovely outdoor ceremony with family and friends present.
It was also very sad for the Laplanche family, as Julian's Mum, had passed away two months before the wedding.
The bridesmaids in black dresses with oriental parasols made it a very pretty
wedding as you can see from the photos.
Life for this happy young couple has been very challenging.
They lost their house in the earthquakes; had a daughter and also twin boys.....
Such a lovely family and one of those couples that are happy to see you.

Travel is something that is so diverse as there are many destinations that you can see as well as activities that you can get up to. For the nature lovers especially, there are vast lands, mountain peaks, and sunsets to feed your love for nature all around the world. One activity that you should consider doing at least once if you haven't tried it before is camping. You may be thinking about planning your first camping trip and be unsure regarding where to start. You should find this article useful on that note, as it's going to tell you how to plan the perfect camping trip.
Choose a Location
When you make the decision to embark on a camping trip, one of the first decisions to make is where you want to go. There are endless destinations to choose when it comes to where to camp so you should take your time to decide which will be most enjoyable for you. Some of the best places to go camping include Herkimer Diamond in New York, Bend-Sunriver RV Campground in Central Oregon, or Lakedale Resort in the San Juan Islands. You can also try going to Fort Yargo State Park in Georgia which is a good destination if you want something family-friendly. The goal should be to look at what amenities they have as well as what activities you can get up to before choosing a destination.
Take the Right Equipment
When going camping, you're going to need to take several things along with you. Some essential items you're going to need are a tent, campers toilet paper, waterproof tart, paper plates, plastic storage bags, a camping cooler, and roasting sticks. These are just a few things amongst many others that you may need to make your camping trip comfortable. Some other equipment that you should get is camping tools, a first-aid kit, a comfortable backpack in case you're going hiking, toiletries, and the right clothing.
Decide What Food to Bring Along
In addition to the mentioned, you should also decide what food you're going to bring along to sustain you on your trip. Some of the best food items for camping include salmon, spaghetti and meatballs, shrimp scampi foil packets, steak potatoes and pulled pork. You should also find a way to bring more than enough drinking water for you to avoid dehydration. Don't forget to take cutlery such as Benchmade knives along with you, forks, and spoons as well as any other cutlery that you might need. Non-perishable items are also a good idea as they won't easily spoil and can use them for a couple of days.
Planning the perfect camping trip takes a great deal of organization as well as time. You should think about all of the essentials you're going to need as mentioned above and see how best you can meet those needs. The tips above should help you do so and you can also seek advice from any expert campers that you might know. Overall, your goal should be to have the time of your life and enjoy every new experience that camping throws your way.

By Wendy Rhein
I often feel like I'm living in a social experiment. I am witness to the circle of life every day with a 2 1/2 year old, a 7 year old, a 43 year old and a 72 year old sharing a relatively small space. I really should carry a notebook for my observations but I think my family would only grow more annoyed with me stating the obvious and then smugly writing it down.
I am seeing more and more similarities between my 2½ year old toddler and my 72-year-old mother. I was sick last week, incredibly put on 'vocal rest' by my doctor who gleefully told me I should stop speaking for 48 hours. I swear she was laughing when she left the exam room. While ill, I had the chance to study my toddler and septuagenarian mother from the vantage point of the couch and made the following comparisons:
1. Toddlers and the elderly both need a nap in the afternoon if you expect them to stay awake through dinner without a meltdown.
2. They talk on the phone the same way. There are lots of "hello, hello, hello?" at increased levels of volume until they just hang up.
3. One is growing taller and one grows smaller at the same speed.
4. Neither likes to be told they can't do something.
5. Neither can get passed the Safari icon to find Pandora and both will yell for help when they can't find their music.
6. When either has to go, they have to go. Get out of the way. Now.
7. The singular focus to achieve a new task like operating the Wii Fit or climbing stairs is inspiring.
8. Both would be happy with cookies and milk for dinner, especially if they missed a nap.
9. Both need shoes with Velcro and preferably with lights.
What I find most interesting is the bond they have. There is a connection, a tenderness, between my mother and my youngest son that is unparalleled. She adores my elder child but there is something about these two, whether they're sharing a cookie, curling up on the couch hip to hip, or struggling to reach down and get their shoes on, they are co-conspirators in taking on the challenges life is throwing at them.

Andrea Alati
Andrea Alati has been obsessed with computer graphics ever since he was little. He describes himself as being a bit of a nerd back then. He loved spending hours on his computer. It wasn't just a hobby, though - he was good at it. A friend of his father's gave him a summer job in his office in Sora (FR), the town where Andrea lives. And when the summer was over he stayed on, and his training began. After finishing high school, he enrolled at the IED in Rome. He graduated at 21, with the idea of applying everything he'd learned to the small reality of his hometown. He started off working by himself, until he realised that he needed to extend his competences, and so together with two programmer friends and future partners – Luca Catallo and Claudio Corridore – he created Fulminelab, a laboratory offering a range of services in the digital production and brand identity field.
Andrea finds all these classifications a bit suffocating: "I'm basically somebody who runs between one place and another" he jokes. On occasion, he's even been called in to handle the refurbishment of a club. Fulminelab displays the same resistance towards labels: "We can do many things with fucking passion" says their website. But passion often comes into conflict with the laws of the market, a slow-moving economy, the sluggishness of local entrepreneurship, a fear of taking risks and the shoehorning of communication strategies into pre-defined logics at the expense of healthy creativity.
Andrea was disappointed by his experience with the big Roman advertising agencies – so much so that it convinced him to go back to Sora and invest in Fulminelab. From his point of view, the world of start-ups provides more stimulating vitality, and today he is happily working with Luiss Enlabs, a startup accelerator. Among the projects of which Andrea is fondest – in part because of the visibility and recognition it has given him – is WeEats, a social network that allows you to create or join culinary events in private homes, a sort of Web 2.0 "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?".
The story of Andrea Alati has been written by Christian e Veronica Raimo, writers

mastered for vinyl by Patrick W. Engel at Temple of Disharmony
Midlands outfit Cloven Hoof must rate as one of the most legendary bands of the entire New Wave Of British Heavy Metal movement. The origins of the group go back to the year 1979, when they first formed under the name of Nightstalker. In 1981, however, the band switched to their new moniker: Cloven Hoof. Original vocalist David Potter, guitarist Steve Rounds, drummer Kevin Poutney and main man Lee Payne on bass adopted the stage characters of 'Earth', 'Fire', 'Water' and 'Air'. A very interesting concept which was far ahead of its time. After recording demos of songs such as "Return Of The Passover" and "Nightstalker" Cloven Hoof issued their debut vinyl 12" EP »The Opening Ritual« on Elemental Music in 1982 (today a precious collector's item). In 1984, the self-titled Cloven Hoof album was released, followed by »Fighting Back« in 1986).
Officially, »Fighting Back« was issued as a "live" album. In the decades after its original release a lot of people wondered how "live" the recording actually was? According to Coven Hoof mastermind Lee Payne, there is no simple answer to this question: "The main problem whilst recording the album was Kevin, the drummer, insisted in using midi drums. He wanted to embrace new technology and believed in the possibility of getting a good sampled sound consistently in a live environment. Good in theory of course, but this technology was in its infancy in those days and the drums didn't quite cut it like today. He played to a click track brilliantly and synth sounds like keyboards were supposed to be triggered but guess what? Most of the stabs didn't work! Computers are fine when they work but back then they were very unreliable. This was before Priest with the »Turbo« album, so bravo to Kevin being at the cutting edge I suppose. The guitars and bass fared better of course they were close miked and the bass was DI'd through the desk with a single mike to the cabs also. The trouble was apart from some crowd spillage through the vocal mikes it was hard to hear the audience. I don't know what the producer did to boost the crowd noise, maybe he just boosted it through one of the backing vocal mikes left on. Certainly when I heard the initial mix, I remember commenting we may as well have played in the rehearsal room and recorded that! The external crowd miking was non-existent, I don't think the stage technicians considered it for a moment. If they had put mikes dedicated purely to picking up the audience, it would have been much better. The stage hands will have to hold their hands up to that one… they fucked up big style. Whatever happened, I was very pleased with the playing. The band sounded very tight indeed. Therefore I am very forgiving about the hotch-potch crowd mixing, and the band didn't do any overdubs whatsoever."
After the EP and the first album Cloven Hoof decided to release this "live" record. There were no previously released songs on the album whatsoever, so that made it even more odd for a "live" album... "We wanted to try out new material, so we thought the best way to air the new songs was by taking it out onto the road and see what the people thought of them," explains Lee Payne. "OK in theory but when a crowd hears songs for the first time they react differently to the old classics. Even so the tunes got a good reaction, so that boded well for a re-recorded studio version of the tracks. 'Eye Of The Sun' and 'Reach For The Sky' actually did make it back onto later albums, but others were so good we felt that they didn't' need reworking as they were perfect as they were. It was very original to play a set of entirely new songs and record them for a live album and we were all for taking risks and breaking new ground. Ah for the braveness of youth! We were unafraid to do anything in those days, we were naive, I guess."
And where did the idea to cover "Daughter Of Darkness" by Tom Jones come from? "Great question!," muses Lee Payne. "We decided that like many bands such as Rainbow, it would be cool to take an obscure song and metal it up for a possible single release. In the end my mom's suggestion of a Tom Jones song that she liked would prove to be the perfect one to tackle. The Sensational Alex Harvey Band did a great job with 'Delilah' previously and Tom has a very powerful vocal delivery, he would have made a great metal singer, I feel. So all we had to do is arrange the piece for guitar and give it fresh dynamics. I thought it worked well and Kerrang! magazine called it 'inspired', so that can't be bad, can it? Later on, however, this choice of artist would lead to our undoing as Russ North decided to imitate the Welsh singer to an alarming degree after the »Dominator« and »A Sultans Ransom« albums, unfortunately."
Would it be fair to say that "Heavy Metal Men Of Steel" was the centrepiece of the record? "Yes, 'Heavy Metal Men of Steel' is my favourite," confesses Lee Payne, "and it would be good to re-record the track one day. I have written a concept album piece around it, too. Watch this space! We decided to adopt the superhero 'Heavy Metal Men of Steel' concept costumes on the back cover. Because of this we got the offer to do a photo session for Kerrang! magazine with the famous metal photographer Ray Palmer. The band W.A.S.P. were in the morning session and Tina Turner and us were in the afternoon. When we got there, Ray was walking as if he had lumbago. We told him he should visit the doctors with his back then he revealed every time one of W.A.S.P. went past him they slapped him hard between the shoulder blades as they went past. His back was red raw like chopped liver… it was their sense of humour, I guess! We were no trouble at all, except our vocalist tried to steal the chair Tina Turner had used before we got there… Hmm, I wonder why? He was a very bad man!"
Did this number also influence the choice of the cover artwork? I mean, when I hear the title "Heavy Metal Men Of Steel", instantly the name Manowar springs to my mind. Were Cloven Hoof aware of Manowar back in 1986? Did they influence them in any way? (Or maybe even the other way round, Cloven Hoof influenced Manowar, who knows?). Lee Payne: "The title »Fighting Back« definitely made me think of Conan. I was obsessed by the Robert E Howard books and the character was my favourite hero of all time. I bought all of them after at first liking the Marvel comics incarnation. Howard was a genius at telling tales of high adventure sword and sorcery. I was always drawing pictures of Conan in my school books and when I got to illustrate a book cover in art college, well, it was obvious what subject matter I would draw on. The cover painting was done by me at 18 and I guess I was pretty pleased with it. Without the album »Fighting Back«, Cloven Hoof would not have existed because of all the legal troubles surrounding the band. I saw it at a time to sink or swim and the album was our lifeline to keep on going. The fans bought it thank goodness and supported us. It sent a message across the metal world that Cloven Hoof would keep 'fighting back' and survive against all odds. This notion made me think back to the painting I had done, it symbolises the spirit of the album perfectly. I love Manowar of course and admire their music and imagery, but they were not an influence on me regards »Fighting Back«. Many of our fans like Manowar too and some got into Cloven Hoof because they bought the album drawn in by the album cover art. Both bands play true metal from the heart and the fans know that. Wish we had done a tour together, it would have been an incredible bill. I remember when the debut Manowar album was offered to Heavy Metal Records back in the day, and I told Paul Birch, the record company owner, to sign them as well as Accept for the »Restless And Wild« album. He didn't, and I bet he regrets that decision now. I thought Manowar were great then and I still do now."
»Fighting Back« was issued on Moondancer Records, a very obscure label. "It was set up by a Birmingham business man in order for Cloven Hoof to put out a live album free of the restraints of record companies," stresses Lee Payne. "The label also enabled us to put out an album free of the legal contractual issues that were hampering us at every turn. When David Hemmings, our previous manager, died, some of the people he had done deals with claimed they owned a piece of Cloven Hoof. David Hemmings had worked as road manager for Black Sabbath and had managed Judas Priest and the Pat Travers Band. We were getting sued on a regular basis and for a time no label would take the risk of signing us, even a major label such as CBS. We are eternally grateful to the owner of Moondancer Records as he saved the band for sure. I can't name him here unfortunately, for legal reasons."
Rob Hendrick is singing on »Fighting Back«", how did this change of singers influence the direction of the band? "Rob Kendrick was a pretty good fit," says Lee Payne, "because he was previously in the bands Trapeze and Budgie. He joined Trapeze at a pretty young age because he was a kind of prodigy on the guitar. His voice was excellent and he modelled himself a little on Glenn Hughes, that was another reason Trapeze hired him. Glenn had left of course to join Deep Purple. Rob sent us a demo tape and we were immediately impressed by the quality of his voice, the guy certainly knew how to sell a song. We saw the potential to use his guitar skills, too, particularly on twin lead parts, before that we were strictly a four piece musically. Two guitars really made everything sound fatter and filled out the rhythms nicely. Having the facility to do two guitar parts definitely influenced me to write 'Reach For The Sky', for example. Rob was really keen on having strong melody lines so he pushed me to be more creative with vocal parts using harmonies to enrich the chorus parts. The previous singer Dave Potter was an all out metal singer and he didn't care much for harmonies, he wanted to keep it hard hitting as we could. It is important to not overdo the harmonies though because they can soften the song up too much and you lose the attack. American AOR bands do that so well but they lose out on raw power and energy, I feel. I think Cloven Hoof have a good medium combining aggression with classy sounding chorus sections that the audience can sing along with live. Mr Kendrick definitely was instrumental in getting me to think about these things in earnest."

A four week extension request can be granted with WATR staff approval within five working days of the due date. Upon returning the equipment at the end of your trial period, we ask that you insure the equipment with the carrier in case of loss or damage during transit.

Countdown To September 1, 2012
I've joined a Block of the Week and the real fun kicks off in two weeks.
The Flickr group is up and running, old friends greeted, new friends introducing themselves, color selections made, fabric stashes shopped, and last minute fabrics purchased to fill in as needed. Barbara Brackman is the woman driving all of the activity, and for at least 49 weeks I'll be trying to keep up the pace. This is the spot where I'll attempt to keep track of my progress.
The theme of this year's quilt along is Grandmother's Choice: A Quilt Block Of The Week to Recall The Fight For Women's Rights.
My Inspiration Piece: I spied this poster on Barbara's blog, way down at the very bottom near the end of a discussion about period appropriate color choices. It grabbed my attention immediately. For me it has it all, the yellow-gold and ivory contrasted with black to represent the American Suffragist campaign, beige and a beautiful gray, but perhaps best of all… would you take a look at that orange.

Should You Adopt A Dog?
There is no denying that a great many oldsters do live alone and may pass several days without seeing anyone, especially during the winter. The children are grown and have lives of their own to get on with and your friends are less mobile too. Television is your constant companion, and you can talk to it, but it is at best a one way conversation.
Why not talk to a dog instead? Now I know what you are thinking – too much work! But honestly, just between us, couldn't you use something to do? I thought as much.
A dog is a constant, loyal companion who will never argue about which TV show to watch and will ask for nothing more than food and a walk. A dog always has something to do and his favorite thing to do is whatever you are doing now. Dogs just want to be included – they love doing laundry and cooking dinner. They are not too keen on vacuuming; but that's OK, I bet you aren't either!
So I suppose the real question is not "should" you get a dog; but rather what kind of dog "should" you get? There is no wrong answer to this, but I suggest you give it some careful thought and seriously consider not getting a puppy unless you really like potty training.
- The many other considerations include:
- What is the state of your own health and where do you live?
- Do you have any allergies?
- Would you benefit from a large dog that needed two walks a day?
- Would a small dog that was paper trained be a more realistic option?
- Would you like a high energy clown or a cuddly couch potato?
- What sort of physical characteristics would you like?
- Would you be happy with a 15 pound mutt in good health?
- Would you prefer a registered breed?
- Can you afford a dog that requires professional grooming?
- Do you have the time and the patience to do some basic dog training?
Sorting this out might take a while but it will give you something to do. Descriptions of most breeds are listed in Wikipedia.com and it is a good idea to read about the character traits of various breeds even if you intend to adopt a mixed breed so that you can figure out what sort of temperament would suit you best.
Once you have an idea what sort of dog you would like you can begin your search for a companion. You have two obvious choices – the local animal shelter or searching online. Dogs in animal shelters are in urgent need of alternate accommodation so at least go to see what is available. Many shelters will take your name and number and call you if a dog of your preference becomes available.
Searching online is daunting but worth the effort. There are so many dogs available for re-homing that choosing is almost a daunting task. Take your time and don't let this put you off – ask lots of questions (especially about health and why the dog needs a new home) and if feasible go and see the dog in person before making a commitment.
Remember you are searching for a friend for life not a prize-winning show dog – character counts! If it is not love at first sight, it is OK to go home and think it over for a day or so. The perfect dog for you is out there waiting patiently to share a life with you.

That is correct, the world is being assumed control by robots and the most recent interruption is in the realm of budgetary administrations. The innovative advances in robotics have influenced the money related industry in unforeseen ways.
Robo-advisors are advanced stages that give computerized, calculation driven budgetary arranging administrations with almost no human supervision. At the point when associated with a robo-advisor, the customer will take an online review, uncovering information on their current monetary circumstance and future objectives. At that point, the robo-advisor will register where the customer ought to contribute his or her cash. Most guidance depends on present-day portfolio hypothesis.
Vanguard Individual Advisor, Schwab Wise Portfolios, and Advancement are driving in this field, as per a current Moody's Speculator Administrations report. Robo-advisors are headed toward a decent begin with retail financial specialists.
In spite of the fact that Robo-advisors are turning into an important apparatus in a money-related advisory position, there is still a lot of perplexities encompassing them. A portion of the perplexity can be attributed to an absence of very much characterized wording. The term robo-advisor alludes to innovation-driven stages that are customer situated. These stages were not intended for use by advisors, yet rather to sidestep them and contend with them.
Robo-advisors may supplant a portion of the elements of a human advisor, however, they could likewise be a major help in a help limit, expanding the specialist's profitability, as the expert won't need to center as much around subsidize choice or the errands that could be computerized. The specialist could invest a greater amount of their energy focusing on higher esteem included administrations.
These robo-stages are intended to be utilized by autonomous monetary counsels while they work with their customers. What separates a robo-stage made for counselors from a retail one? One noteworthy contrast is the capacity for advisors to private-mark the stage with their own particular marking. Another is, the capacity to tailor the speculation determination and the customer experience to the necessities of the individual firm. However, another differentiator between counsel stages and the early robo-advisors is that the previous is intended to enable advisors to team up with customers and prospects carefully.
Robo-advisors will request that a customer round out a survey. The reactions will figure out which show portfolio will best suit the customer. Robo-advisors will utilize different models that depend on financial specialist age, chance resilience, and execution desires. Most Robo-advisors will put resources into Trade Exchanged Assets to limit speculation costs.
Customary advisors will get point by point data and utilize it to build up a customized speculation technique. The best autonomous advisors in this classification can give moderately boundless speculation decisions that incorporate Trade Exchanged Assets, isolate records, and dynamic portfolio administration.
IBM Watson, the processing framework sufficiently brilliant to give specialists suggestions for treating malignancy, is currently prepared to help budgetary organizers to give an exhortation. Watson is an inquiry noting PC framework equipped for noting questions postured in characteristic dialect. It is the reproduction of human points of view in an electronic model, which includes self-learning frameworks that utilization information mining, design acknowledgment and normal dialect handling to imitate the way the human cerebrum works.
Studies demonstrate that identity impacts a person's hazard taking conduct in budgetary choices. IBM Watson utilizes identity experiences to decide a person's identity from the accessible substance the individual has written. The induced identity is then used to decide the person's hazard inclination and help the advisor in the choice of reserve suggestions.
Once a hazard appraisal in view of identity is accessible, Watson can be utilized to adjust various money related targets alongside identity match to enable the advisor to decide the best finances for the person. Learning about a person's identity can be utilized to coordinate him or her to a specialist who is well on the way to close the business and drive an incentive out of the relationship. These bits of knowledge can likewise be utilized to give suggestions to the advisor in building up the ideal commitment system.
Directly, riches administration lean towards the high total assets customers, as far as possible up to private investors. By taking the aptitude of riches advisors and building it into robo-advisors, individuals could communicate with the robo-advisors, taking the riches advisor to scale. There would be more customer collaboration that doesn't need to be up close and personal or on the telephone.
The advantages of utilizing a robo-advisor are the simplicity of online access as a central element of online speculation stages. Well informed financial specialists like the capacity to set up and store a record through the straightforwardness and practicality of a PC or cell phone. The way toward building an enhanced venture portfolio is a considerable preferred standpoint for robo-advisors. The record setup process as a rule takes minutes and learned financial specialists with a do-it-without anyone's help attitude welcome the simplicity of executing exchanges.
A standout amongst the most imperative advantages of utilizing a robo-advisor is the capacity to put resources into a differentiated portfolio that depends on present-day portfolio hypothesis explore. Robo-advisors give a lower cost other option to customary resource administration firms, and they can help wipe out the potential for advisory firms to suggest their own items or let self-serving inclinations impact venture proposals.
At the contrary end of the scale, a robo-advisor with a human part isn't given, leaving access to ensured monetary organizers a missing component. There aren't any robo-advisors that can completely evaluate whether it bodes well to put something aside for crises, pay down obligation, or contribute for long haul objectives, for example, retirement. There are various segments of hazard required with the speculation procedure and no single hazard estimation instrument exists that can assert 100 percent precision in surveying hazard.

Problems are deepening for Japanese electronics companies suffering from a global economic slowdown. Matsushita and NEC are the latest firms to feel the sting of dropping demand.
Matsushita, the world's biggest consumer electronics maker, announced a sharp loss of more than $300 million in the second quarter. The company blames a slowdown in sales on plunging worldwide demand. In response, Matsushita will expand an early retirement plan, so that it can trim its workforce.
Rival NEC also announced plans to restructure. It will slash 4,000 jobs, and close some production lines. The head of the company's semiconductor division says the current business climate is the worst the company has ever experienced.
Alan Bell covers Japanese equities for Credit Suisse First Boston. He says that it is vital for electronics makers to adjust to the global slowdown, because, in his view, it will last for several years. "What we are going through now is a process of rationalization. The capacity that has been built has to be brought in line with the likely level of demand we will see over the next few years or so. These are going to be somewhat lower than what we have enjoyed during the year 2000 and 2001," Bell said. Meanwhile, Japan's top carmaker, Toyota, and Universal Studios of the United States have unveiled a global marketing alliance. Under the deal, Toyota will sponsor Universal movies and theme park attractions around the world. It will pay Universal $100 million to link its name with the entertainment company. The carmaker will also be able to use characters from Universal movies in its advertisements.
While temperatures in Japan have been soaring, so have sales of beer and malt liquor. Brewers such as Sapporo and Asahi are reporting record sales. Japanese electricity companies are also experiencing a similar boost, as people use more air conditioning.

Listening Training:
The Joya Centre is open seven days a week.
For those who live relatively close we generally advise the following schedule.
Phase I: Twelve to fifteen consecutive days of two hours of Listening a day, followed by a one to three week rest period of integration.
Phase II: Eight to ten days of Listening for two hours a day, followed by one to three weeks of integration.
Phase III: Usually another eight to ten days of Listening.
Throughout this entire period six or seven Listening Tests are done, to monitor progress and adjust the individualized protocol every client receives.
Parents/caregivers of children under 16 always listen for free!
For those who come from other parts of the country or from outside New Zealand, there is the possibility of doing an 'intensive' Listening Training programme. This generally lasts between ten days and three weeks.
Accommodation is discounted, sometimes up to 50%. This is done to make it more affordable to experience the benefits of doing Listening Training in a relaxed and comfortable holiday like situation.
Any length of time is beneficial, as changes can occur even after a few days.But those generally won't last. Some of the clients who wrote testimonials for this website only did 45 hours of Listening. However, to ensure an optimal,and LASTING effect, most protocols end up being between sixty and ninety hours in total.
Unsure whether this is for you? This is what we advise:
- Check yourself out. Complete the Listening Checklists.
- Check yourself in – for a consultation. This generally that takes between 1 ½ and 2 hours, and most of the time we can tell you whether and how we can help you by the end of this consultation.
For more information, come to one of our Open Days or contact Paulina directly – see contact page.

Fifth Grade Happenings
As we progress to the closing of our first rhythm unit, fifth grade brainstormed a list of criteria that they would like in their fellow musicians, as we rehearse and perform in class. Students will progress to more difficult music, with things like melody and harmony being added in coming units, where they will get a chance to play songs with a greater number of parts and musical elements. Ms. Feldman's class came up with this great list which gives us some food for thought on how to help each other achieve as we musically progress throughout the year.
Correspondence should be arriving home with your children this week in Friday folders which contains information regarding the upcoming third grade performances in November. Please note that classes are separated into two nights of shows, with each class performing one time, in hopes of accommodating our large number of students and parents in the most safe and productive way possible. Thanks for your cooperation in advance ogetting your students where they need to be, dressed in the requested attire, at the designated time.
Third Grade Composition Fun
Third grade students used ipads to research various American landmark locations, about which they would later compose. Students made eight beat compositions inspired by places like Mt. Rushmore and the Grand Canyon.
Essential Questions for this Week
K: What would movement be like without steady beat?
K students continued to add animals to their "Listen" song. We experienced singing with body percussion in order to prepare for our cowbell experience this week. Please ask your K students what other instruments we have learned so far this year!
1st Grade: It is SLO or Student Learning Objective week in music this week for first grade.
2nd Grade: How do you know you performed a quarter note, two eighth notes, and four sixteenth notes correctly?
Students read and performed "Rumble in the Jungle" with Ms. Weingart and learned how to figure out the rhythm of a saying/poem.
3rd Grade: What kinds of rules are there when creating rhythms?
Students played a Chris Judah Lauder drumming piece called "Three Plus," using quarter notes, paired eighth notes, and quarter rests. They then began the composition process by determining America/Georgia words that correspond to the value of each notes.
4th Grade: Can you read quarter notes, paired eighth notes, quarter rests, four sixteenth notes, half notes, and whole notes? How do you make the sound you read come out of your instrument?
Students played "Ding Dong Diggidiggi Dong" on hand drums with a partner. I'd like to give a special shout out to one of Ms. Reed's students who was able to match a whopping FORTY TWO notes in a row to their correct duration value as we wrapped up class yesterday!
5th Grade: What do you do to the beat in order to come up with a rhythm?
January 2017

Eolas Technologies, a company that ground through a years-long patent infringement lawsuit against Microsoft, now has sued a large swath of corporate powers for infringement of that same patent and another related patent concerning interactive programs on Web sites.
The list of defendants includes many high-profile companies inside and outside the tech world: Adobe Systems, Amazon, Apple, Blockbuster, Citigroup, eBay, Frito-Lay, Go Daddy, Google, J.C. Penney, JPMorgan Chase, Office Depot, Perot Systems, Playboy Enterprises, Staples, Sun Microsystems, Texas Instruments, Yahoo, and YouTube.
Eolas' suit is not to be taken lightly. Although the earlier Microsoft case took many years to resolve, and Eolas by no means won a complete victory, the patent involved did overall withstand heavy legal challenges despite many on the Web rallying to Microsoft's aid. Microsoft and Eolas won't describe terms of their 2007 settlement of the patent case, but Eolas did say it expected to pay its shareholders a 2007 dividend afterward.
"What distinguishes this case from most patent suits is that so many established companies named as defendants are infringing a patent that has been ruled valid by the Patent Office on three occasions," said Mike McKool, head of the national law firm McKool Smith and Eolas' lead attorney.
The U.S. District Court suit, filed in the eastern district of Texas, seeks preliminary and permanent injunctions prohibiting the plaintiffs from using the patented technology; payment for damages from infringement, including treble damages because the alleged infringement was willful; attorney's fees; and a jury trial.
Eolas conducts research and development but also has a separate licensing department. "Eolas seeks to return value to its shareholders by commercializing these technologies through strategic alliances, licensing and spin-offs," the company says of itself.
The earlier Microsoft case involved U.S. patent 5,838,906, "Distributed hypermedia method for automatically invoking external application providing interaction and display of embedded objects within a hypermedia document," which involved browsers launching a helper application such as Adobe Flash.
In the new case, that patent is joined by a newer one granted Tuesday, No., 7,599,985, with a very similar title: "Distributed hypermedia method and system for automatically invoking external application providing interaction and display of embedded objects within a hypermedia document."
"The '985 Patent is a continuation of the '906 patent, and allows Web sites to add fully-interactive embedded applications to their online offerings through the use of plug-in and Ajax (asynchronous JavaScript and XML) Web development techniques," Eolas said in a statement about the lawsuit.
Ajax caught on midway through the decade as a way to endow Web pages with interactive features based in part on the JavaScript programming language. Ajax is used in many Web sites including Google Maps and Yahoo Mail.
The '985 patent, originally filed Aug. 9, 2002, involves a program embedded in a Web page--or "hypermedia document," as the patent language calls it more generally. Here's an excerpt from the patent abstract's description of the technology:
A system allowing user of a browser program on a computer connected to an open distributed hypermedia to access and execute an embedded programming object. The program object is embedded into a hypermedia document much like data objects.
The user may select the program object from the screen. Once selected the program executes on the user's (client's) computer or may execute on a remote server or additional remote computers in a distributed processing arrangement.
After launching the program object, the user is able to interact with the object as the invention provides for ongoing interprocess communication between the application object (program) and the browser program.
And later, in a bit more detail:
The present invention allows a user at a client computer connected to a network to locate, retrieve, and manipulate objects in an interactive way. The invention not only allows the user to use a hypermedia format to locate and retrieve program objects, but also allows the user to interact with an application program located at a remote computer.
Interprocess communication between the hypermedia browser and the embedded application program is ongoing after the program object has been launched. The use is able to use a vast amount of computing power beyond that which is contained in the user's client computer.
Apple, Google, Yahoo, Texas Instruments, and Office Depot each declined to comment on the suit. Staples, Playboy, Sun, Blockbuster, Citigroup, eBay, Frito-Lay, J.C. Penney, JPMorgan Chase, Adobe, and Perot Systems didn't immediately respond to requests for comment.
Elizabeth Driscoll, vice president of public relations for Go Daddy, said in a statement, "We have not seen the lawsuit and, therefore, cannot comment on it. However, we are unaware of the basis for any such claims and we will defend the case vigorously."
Updated 1:26 p.m., 2:09 p.m., 2:35 p.m., and 4:08 p.m. PDT with comment from companies.

Summary of Week 5
This week, we studied various phrases that one can use when going shopping in Korea.
First, we learned how to ask for the price, right? After that, we saw the expression used when asking a clerk if we can try on an outfit we like.
Let us know what you think about it, and if there are other things that you are curious about or want to know, feel free to ask any questions in the comments section.
Keep practicing what we learned this week, and if you come to Korea, try to use them in these situations. If you see something you like ask for the price and then ask if you can try it on!
During the next lesson, we will keep studying some expression you can use when shopping in Korea. We will learn how to express what you think about the clothes you tried on. Another interesting lesson is waiting for you, be sure not to miss it!
See you next week.

The Verizon iPhone was finally made available very early this morning – at 3:00 a.m. EST, in fact -- but for some who stayed up late (or woke up early) to take the plunge were left unsatisfied when they experienced ordering delays on Verizon's website servers.
However, Verizon is calling these issues "account-specific."
"The system performed beautifully through the night, but most people that received error messages had to do with their individual account," said Brenda Raney, a spokesperson for Verizon.
"For Verizon, if you are on a family plan and the account is not in your name, you may have received an error message while trying to preorder the Verizon iPhone, Raney added.
Verizon said it will change the verbiage on the site to make the process more clear to customers. Although this was the most common reason for errors on the site, Raney said other issues occurred, but were still account-related.
"It's important to note that the issues only affected a small amount of people," Raney said.
However, the early-morning problems left some eager Verizon subscribers feeling frustrated. Many took to their Facebook and Twitter accounts to spread the news.
"Dear Verizon: You have the worst customer service/website ever! It took me 4.5 hours to pre-order my iPhone," said one Verizon customer in a Facebook post.
Verizon said they will reach out to everyone who experienced difficulties to make sure their orders are placed.
"We want everyone who wants to preorder a Verizon iPhone [to be able to] do so," Raney said. "Anyone who had problems on the site should contact us directly and we'll try to get everything resolved quickly."
As expected, Verizon said it experienced a lot of traffic right out of the gate, but didn't reveal how many orders were placed.
"We planned for a lot of traffic and high use on the site, and that is exactly what we got," Raney said. "It was nothing we couldn't manage."
Raney noted that there was a high-traffic spike early on after the 3:00 a.m. EST, but it eventually leveled off through the night.
"As people started to wake up, though, more orders were placed," Raney added. "We are expecting more and more as the days go on."

We helped write the book on laneway housing in Toronto, and there is no better option for turn-key laneway solutions whether your focus is on accessibility, beauty, sustainability, or all of the above.
Laneway suites are secondary dwellings constructed behind traditional street-facing homes on lots abutting a public laneway. Laneway suites increase quality of affordable rental housing, intensify existing neighbourhoods, utilize existing infrastructure and animate underutilized urban space.
Lanescape's approach to design and construction is founded on critical analysis, technical comprehension and a relentless enthusiasm for creating exemplary urban environments. As we continue to reshape Toronto's urban fabric, resourcefulness and contextual sensitivity is engrained in both our process and our product.
As designers and builders, Lanescape's role transcends the traditional relationship between architect and general contractor. We act on your behalf to effectively manage all aspects and parties involved in bringing your new laneway suite to reality. Our team effectively straddles the divide between concept and realization from the day pencil hits paper to the night of your house-warming party.
Lanescape operates at the intersection of advocacy and implementation. Our expertise in the by-laws' development and on-site experience informs our workshops, lectures, and information sessions. Whether you are a homeowner, realtor, design professional, or laneway housing enthusiast, our events offer information valuable to all laneway housing perspectives.

There are only a few more weeks left in 2017! The year is almost done and its time to start a new planner. I designed this pretty Floral and Pink 2018 Printable Planner that is loaded with so many resources. I Hope you love the designs as much as I enjoyed making them. The florals images I got from Gold and Berry another blogger who does stock images that are super cute and feminine. The layout I've used in my Bullet Journal system and they are useful and productive.
When Is The Best Time To Start Using Your Planner
With a planner, it's best to start planning today. start writing down special dates like birthday, anniversary, family vacations and so on. Get ahead and start thinking about gifts or outings and outline the procedure to a particular task.
Printables are a must have for a few reasons. Have you ever heard the saying "write your dreams down and watch them happen" that's the premise of why I use printable? I have a smartphone, laptop and tablet and somehow I never seem to use them and always gravitate to my notecards or loose sheets. it saves me a ton of money on planners and I print the days weeks and months I need.
What Is Included In The Floral & Pink 2018 Printable Planner
There was a lot of thought that went into this The Floral & Pink 2018 Printable Planner. I chose sheets that would be used frequently and that would be most important to the daily organization of your life. My biggest activity is meal planning, sitting down with pen and paper to see what can be had for a month….augh ordeal, but when finished it's super productive and makes my life so much easier. If you want to see how I meal plan and what ideas I use, leave a comment below?

Why You Need a Planner
If you're a stay at home mom like me, with one or more kids, you need a printable planner or some kind of organizational tool, that's a given. Organizing your days with things to do, meal planning, grocery shopping list and activities for the kids, you can grab an activity sheet here, you have to find some way to get your life organized.
Why Do You Need Your Life Organized
Is that really a question. My life uses to be like a tornado in full motion, picking up trees, houses, cattle and spinning them around with strong winds and rain a circular motion, and I would be of the centre of all that chaos hanging on for dear life. Then one day I started writing down everything, my thoughts, plans, ideas and got into the bullet journal system. Here are a few customisable sheets and a starter kit.
Now with that same chaos, I am in the centre walking in slow motion, swatting away anything that may come my way because I have planned ahead and know whats coming. Planners help me organize my life from dusk till dawn

I am writing my thesis using a template provided by the university. It requires using the report class. To format the headings in the front matter, it uses the
titlesec package and redefine the format (
\titlespacing). However, this also changes the format of chapter headings in the main matter, which I don't like. I have tried using
\newenvironment to define an environment
preliminary to wrap the front matter and to only redefine the headings' format locally. However it did not work.
My questions are: is it possible to change the headings' format locally? if not, how to save the default format and restore it after the front matter?
I guess I can always redefine the format after the front matter, but I want to keep the default.

Presbyopia is a naturally occurring vision condition which typically begins in or around your forties. It develops gradually over time and affects the elasticity of the eye, making it difficult to read print up close. It's nothing out of the ordinary because it happens to everyone. You typically notice it when you read something and move it further away from your face to bring it into focus.
Multifocal contact lenses help you see clearly at all distances– near, intermediate and far4. That means you can read your text messages, see road signs or spot far-away objects.
Some people have several pairs of reading glasses laying around. Contact lenses are easy because you don't forget them, they're on the eye and you don't need to start fumbling in your bag every time you cannot read something. You also have the option of keeping a pair of reading or multifocal glasses at home for the times when you don't have your contact lenses in.

Merida From 'Brave' Now Appearing at Disney's Magic Kingdom
Posted on Wednesday, May 16th, 2012 by Germain Lussier
The movie is still a month from release but Merida from Brave has invaded Disney's Magic Kingdom in Orlando, Florida. The rebellious red-headed princess is the highlight of a new corner of the park devoted to the upcoming Pixar film and, after the jump, check out some photos and a video of the experience that's sure to be super busy come June 22.
Thanks to The Disney Blog for these images.
And here's a video of the experience.
It's located in a spot that used to be Belle's Story Time and was then occupied by the Tangled crew. Do you think Brave will serve as a more permanent part of the park?

Curiosity Creates Opportunity
I was thinking about the phrase "curiosity killed the cat" today as one of my cats climbed up on a pile of empty cardboard boxes that were piled high on a work table to see what was going on and everything came down in a huge, yet rather quiet crash – except for the startled yelp of the cat as he was propelled into the air.
Most of us know what curiosity killed the cat "means." Poking around can have dire consequences. But I was curious as to it's origin, so I did some Googling and found this info on Wikipedia. It started out as "care killed the cat."
Ben Johnson, an English playwright in 1598 used something like it one of his plays – followed by Shakespeare in 1599. It evolved into the […]

The Fabienne Colas Foundation (FCF) wants to promote culture and the arts in all their forms in Canada and elsewhere. It hopes to showcase more culturally diverse artists on the international scene but, above all, to encourage, recognize and celebrate the outstanding achievements and works of artists through film festivals, multi-disciplinary festivals, workshops, internships, contests and excellence awards.
The Foundation would also like to give audiences access to artists and their works outside the festival period by hosting film screenings, exhibitions, debates, round-tables, etc. all year long, this, with a view to giving people the opportunity to exchange points of view, broaden their knowledge and discover new works. This will also provide artists with a new window for gaining new audiences.
It is for the above reasons that the FCF has created, in collaboration with ZaZa Production, various large festivals that draw thousands of festival-goers each year, put hundreds of artists in the limelight, and attract exceptional media coverage. These festivals include :
