About the Documentary Film
A Thin Wall is a documentary about memory, history and the possibility of reconciliation. It focuses on the partition of India in 1947, but derives lessons that remain urgently relevant today. Shot on both sides of the border, in India and Pakistan, A Thin Wall is a personal take on Partition rooted in stories passed down from one generation to another. It is written and directed by Mara Ahmed and co-produced by Surbhi Dewan. Both filmmakers are descendants of families torn apart by Partition. The film is also a work of art infused with original animation, music and literary writing.

A geoportal represents a target area for the presentation of geospatial data, its review, editing and search. The geoportal application of the Republic administration for geodetic and property affairs was created in such a way that on one hand, it allows the presentation, distribution and charging of fees for distributed data under the jurisdiction of the Administration through services and applications, and on the other provides interoperability with data from other institutions of the Republic of Srpska which together with data of the Administration form the SDIRS (Spatial Data Infrastructure of the Republic of Srpska), all in accordance with the INSPIRE directive and other international standards in this field.
The network services and technologies available within the Geoportal are: search, preview, download, transformation and connectivity.
e-Cadastre is an application for the preview of cadastral data through the internet (through the Geoportal of the Republic administration for geodetic and property affairs of the Republic of Srpska).
All data represented here is unofficial and cannot be used for any personal or business needs.
Metadata Catalogue
A metadata catalogue is a web application whose main purpose is the viewing and creation of metadata in accordance with the INSPIRE directive (2007/2/EC)1 and the INSPIRE Metadata Regulation (1205/2008)2. A metadata catalogue allows the description of a set of geospatial data or spatial services in accordance with the standards ISO 19115:2003 and ISO 19119:2005iii.
Metadata is related to the attributive information that describes spatial sets of data. Metadata allows users or information systems to access and assess wheter the requested information is suitable for the desired application.
Metadata describes the scope of selected materials, the responsible organization, method of classification, keywords, geographic position, quality and validity, conditions and restrictions for public access and other aspects related to data usability. Metadata can be divided into general descriptive metadata, which can be useful when searching the resources and products related to geoinformation, and detailed metadata that allows a closer evaluation of data and products.
Metadata is useful for mechanisms for finding and providing information about spatial data and services, to both providers and users of that data. There are the following levels of metadata:
• Finding: Which data sources contain the required information? It allows the users to search and locate information on available themes, theme categories, keywords, geographic locations, data coverage.
• Research (or estimate): Is it possible to find the right information within the source that meets the needs?
• Exploitation (access and use): How to access and use a source of information? This is a more detailed description of data needed for the use of geodata, quality, conditions and restrictions and structure (data model and vocabulary).
Object Catalogue
The object catalogue serves as a table of contents of object types or classes that can be found on the Geoportal. Within the catalogue a search can be executed as well as access to the data that is in the possession of the Republic administration for geodetic and property affairs.

Lumin's Workshop Textured EVA Foam
$11.38 CAD + shipping
Lumin's workshop textured EVA foams are the perfect way to add fine detailed textures to your armour or props.
To use, simply cut out a piece of textured foam for the size of your project, heat the back side with a heat gun and then form to the required shape.
For best results, we recommend building a base with a thickness of foam thinner then you require your final piece, then layer on the texture foam as a skin. Since the texture foam is made from our Form-Lite EVA Foam, it can be stretched to create a skin over formed curved pieces without the need for a seam.
Note: Heating the front (textured side) will result in a loss of texture definition.

Young people globally are challenged with opportunities to have the required space and platforms to initiate, discuss, propose and implement youth friendly policies especially around Sexual and Reproduction Health Rights (SRHR) and Education. Decisions including policies and laws that affect young people are designed for them and in most cases, do not meet their expectations.
A high percentage of young people as confirmed in most studies including the 2008 and 2014 GDHS, are engaged in sexual activities with a mean debut of 17 years. They do not have access to contraceptives in some cases or knowledge on their usage, or simply choose not to use them altogether. Young People who have access to SRHR services feel intimidated by some Health Professional with numerous questions, lack of confidentiality and secrecy.
Reflections and learning's from the above, NORSAAC, an empowerment for change organisation in partnership with RFSU (a Swedish based organization) has scoped out all relevant policies and laws that seek to protect the interest of young people especially around SRHR in Ghana and validated the scoping studies with all relevant stakeholders.
The diversity in discussion has influenced this activity where the organization and its partners will organize the first ever Northern Young People SRHR conference dubbed "Northern Ghana SRHR Conference for Young People" to enable young people develop their own abstracts especially around the policies and practice.
The conference is expected to document the disconnect between policies/laws and practice and create space for the young people to present their case to policy makers and make follow up demands for review or enforcement of these policies.

The ONE Championship event featuring former UFC champions Eddie Alvarez and Demetrious Johnson on Oct. 13 in Tokyo will be the Asian promotion's first to be televised live in the United States, Alvarez told ESPN on Monday.
Alvarez (30-7), who held the UFC lightweight belt in 2016 and also was a two-time Bellator champ, will face Saygid Arslanaliev (8-1) in the final of ONE's lightweight grand prix. Appearing on Ariel Helwani's MMA Show, Alvarez said his fight will be televised in prime time in the U.S. on Oct. 12 on TNT.
Johnson (29-3-1), who owns the UFC record for consecutive title defenses after successfully putting the flyweight belt on the line 11 times during a reign from 2012 until last year, faces Danny Kingad (13-1) in the flyweight grand prix finale.
Alvarez and Johnson both have competed twice before for ONE Championship after joining the promotion this year. Johnson won both of his fights; Alvarez lost his debut in March before scoring a quick win earlier this month.
The October fight card at Ryogoku Kokugikan arena has five title bouts scheduled and is dubbed ONE Championship: Century because it will be the promotion's 100th event.
A ONE representative confirmed that the fights are on TNT and said details on the broadcast time are forthcoming.

Congress finally passed the most sweeping financial reform measures since the 1930s, but what we have here is a bill that's been so watered down that it doesn't do many of the things it was supposed to.
In fact, Wall Street may scream and put on a good show, but overall, it can't be too upset. The doesn't, for example, address in any meaningful way, the problems of institutions that are too big to fail nor does it force banks to separate investments from federally insured deposits. Glass-Steagall remains quite dead.
Most of the provisions that would have forced Wall Street to change its ways were compromised out of this law weeks ago.
The law creates the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, but places it within the Federal Reserve, rather than making it independent. Expect a watchdog born on a short leash.
The law gives regulators the authority to seize and break up troubled financial institutions without taxpayer bailouts if their collapse could pose a threat to the stability of the financial system. This would be paid for by a fee levied on other big banks.
So, the government basically needs a certain number of banks to stay large to keep its funding mechanism intact.
Some of the benefits of the law: it imposes new oversight on derivatives and adopts the Volcker Rule, which limits proprietary trading by big banks. The increase of federal deposit insurance to $250,000 is now permanent.
It also sets up new mortgage underwriting standards designed to eliminate some of the predatory practices from the real estate bubble and provides new oversight of credit rating agencies.
The Fed gets additional powers under the law, but it also must submit to a one-time audit of its emergency lending programs from the financial crisis. That's long overdue.
There's a lot more, and a lot of its good. In fact, maybe there's too much. The law is so broad, it may have been too easy for lawmakers to trade away the measures that really mattered given a crisis of the magnitude we just endured.
But that all seems like so long ago now, doesn't it? Was it really a problem?

Vivus Faces Turning Point in Obesity Drug Battle Tomorrow With Arena, Orexigen
(Page 2 of 2)
on a high dose, compared with less than 2 percent on a placebo in a pair of trials after a year of observation. The FDA typically likes to see at least a 5 percentage point advantage for obesity drugs over a placebo, so that beat an important FDA benchmark. The most common side effects were dry mouth, tingling, constipation, altered taste, and insomnia, Vivus said at the time. FDA staff reviewers, in briefing documents posted yesterday, said Qnexa helped people lose weight, but, as noted by Reuters, the FDA also pointed to the drug's possible effects on heart rate, depression and pregnancy.
It's the FDA staff's job to look as hard as they can for the fly in the ointment, and when the briefing document came out, Wall Street generally exhaled. Cory Kasimov, an analyst with JP Morgan who follows Vivus, wrote yesterday that FDA staff were "far more benign" in their questioning of the Vivus application than most investors were expecting. Vivus stock shot up 17 percent yesterday on five times the normal trading volume to close at $12.44, heading into tomorrow's panel meeting.
Besides tomorrow's panel, the next most important date to watch for Vivus followers is Oct. 28, the FDA's deadline to complete its review of its application.
The agency has its hands full reviewing this current crop of obesity drugs. Arena, which was the first to sign up a Big Pharma partner, is gearing up for its appearance before an FDA panel on Sept. 16, followed by its FDA review deadline of Oct. 22. Orexigen's big days on the calendar are a little further behind—Dec. 7 for the advisory panel, and Jan. 31 for the FDA deadline.
As Leerink Swann's Yoo says, each of these drugs has advantages that it will use to try to persuade physicians that its drug is the best-in-class. There is going to be fierce jockeying in the marketing world over how to position these products in the minds of physicians and consumers. As I pointed out in this feature story last September, the companies were already rehearsing their TV commercial lines then. Vivus was positioning its product as the one likely to help people lose the most weight, Orexigen is hoping to say it helps treat related illnesses that stem from obesity (like diabetes), while Arena wants to pitch itself as the safest option for the masses.
I am not planning to cover the blow-by-blow of tomorrow's FDA advisory meeting, what with a bunch of other deadlines, and the fact that all the major newspapers and wire services will be sure to keep you informed about what the FDA panel has to say about the Vivus drug. I will plan to write a wrap-up story shortly after the wires move their headlines tomorrow afternoon. But this will be a major ongoing story we at Xconomy plan to watch in the months ahead, so stay tuned.

|Independence 2011 have installed 2 stairlifts for us. We received helpful, practical and timely advice about the types of stairlift we should install. The installation was carried out very professionally and efficiently. Any subsequent queries about the operation of the stairlifts have been positively and promptly dealt with. Overall their service has been excellent. We are also comforted by the fact that they are readily available to attend to any future maintenance needs.
Mr Johns - Wellington
My original plan for my stairlift installation was for it to be used for emergencies and elderly visitors. But I find myself using it constantly to carry myself and various items which are awkward to carry up my narrow stairs.
Mrs Alyward - Auckland
The installation of our stairlift saved us from having to shift into a single level home.
Mr and Mrs Peader - Tauranga
My old Stannah Stairlift had serviced me for almost 30 years so why change to another product. I am extremely pleased with my stairlift, it is helping me stay in my home and is a great help, almost a friend.

Any surgery involves risks, but the hazards for the youngest patients going under the knife may be more lasting than doctors had thought.
In a study involving 5,357 children born in Rochester, Minn., scientists found that children who had had two or more surgeries by the time they were 2 were twice as likely to be diagnosed with ADHD by the time they were 19, compared with youngsters who had had only one surgical procedure.
"It's not the finding we wanted," says the study's senior author Dr. David Warner, professor of anesthesiology at Mayo Clinic. "When we started the study, we hoped we could say there was no evidence of any problems. But unfortunately that's not what we found."
The results support an earlier study he and his colleagues conducted looking at the effect of multiple surgeries on children's learning disabilities. In that investigation, they also found that youngsters who had had more operations by age 2 were more likely to have problems with reading, writing and language, as well as behavioral issues in school.

General lists can be used to ensure incoming leads are validated based on conditions that a marketer has required. General lists are flexible, with the ability to accept or reject leads based on a range of user-created criteria, such as states, countries, job titles, etc.
How To
There are multiple ways to create a general list. The first is by accessing the Lists menu.
- Click the 'Campaigns' tab, click the 'Lists' subtab, which will show all lists associated with your account. In the upper right of this page, click 'Create List' and choose 'General List.'
- In the modal, you can name your list and manually enter values or choose to upload criteria from a spreadsheet. You also have the ability to enable case sensitivity on validation, as well
- After creating the list, you will be brought back to the list menu, where you can manipulate your newly created list by clicking the ellipsis on the right. Here, you can edit, map and download lists. If the list is no associated with a source, you also have the ability to delete it.
The other option is to create a general list when creating a campaign/source.
- While in the 'Fields' section of a new campaign or source, certain fields require a list (such as state/province, country, etc.). Clicking on the field will allow you to either assign an existing general list or create a new one. Creation steps are identical as shown above via the Lists menu.

From our colleagues at Gadgetwise:
In 1984, I was all set to buy my first computer: a Kaypro 4. It came complete with Wordstar, dBase II, MicroPlan, Microsoft Basic, S-Basic, SuperCalc, and the CP/M operating system.
It also had all the design charm of an empty gasoline can.
That's one of the reasons I opted instead to make the first Macintosh my first computer. Not only was I enthralled with the graphical user interface, but, for its time, the computer actually looked good; it was typically described as "cute."
Which is one reason that Apple has little to fear from the two companies that are currently selling unauthorized clones that run Mac OS X: Psystar in the United States, and HyperMegaNet, a newcomer from Wolfsburg, Germany. Read more…

Green Awards 2007 Honorees
When we announced our plan to honor local eco-innovators, your nominations poured in. Here are the eight individuals we singled out for their vision. PLUS: How can Chicago become the most environmentally friendly city in America? Join us for a panel discussion with our inaugural class of Green Award honorees at the Green Festival on April 21st.
(page 5 of 5)
Ori Sivan and Joe Silver, Greenmaker Supply Company
The Budding Entrepreneurs
Joe Silver remembers his reaction when Ori Sivan, his best friend from Niles North High, pitched him on the idea of a one-stop green building supply shop. "Green building supplies? I'd never heard of them," says Silver (right), whose family runs Remodeler's Supply Company, a local behemoth with five area locations. Sivan, an environmental engineer, believed a series of green building initiatives put forth by Mayor Daley would create demand for items made from nontoxic and renewable resources. But he needed a partner like Silver, who understood the construction industry.
By 2005, the two had opened Greenmaker Supply at the Remodeler's Supply complex at 2500 North Pulaski Road. Last year, revenue from sales of items such as solvent-free American Pride paint, recycled glass tiles, and flooring from renewable bamboo totaled $1 million. With plans in the works to expand, the two 30-year-olds have decided they don't just want to peddle "green" products; they want to engineer them, too-hence their new line of cabinets made from recycled wood dust and nontoxic glue. "Until we change the way we do business, it's not going to have an impact," says Sivan, whose biggest coup has been the conversion of his business partner. "Now that I have a baby," Silver says, "there are no conventional supplies I would put in my house."

Police said a then 21-year-old Patricia Esparza met the victim, Gonzalo Ramirez, in a nightclub. She allegedly later told her ex-boyfriend, Gianni Van, that Ramirez assaulted her.
"They go to a bar here in Santa Ana, where she points out our victim as being the individual that had committed the assault," said Cpl. Anthony Bertagna of the Santa Ana Police Department.
The bar, which once stood on the corner of McFadden and Grand avenues, is where investigators say Esparza and Van, along with friends Kody Tran, Tran's wife Diane Tran, and Shannon Gries, waited for Ramirez to leave. They allegedly then followed Ramirez and bumped his truck, forcing him to pull over to inspect the damage.
According to investigators, the plan had been to kidnap Ramirez and bring him to Kody Tran's transmission shop in Coast Mesa. But they say at some point it changed to murder.
"Our victim is tied up, beaten and eventually murdered," Bertagna said.
Detectives started honing in on Esparza and Van with the help of phone records and DNA evidence, but then the investigation hit a wall when the suspects married each other.
"Obviously, she was not obligated to testify in the case against her husband," Bertagna said.
The case stalled for 15 years until Esparza filed for divorce from Van, got re-married and moved to France.
"Unfortunately, for our detectives, there is no extradition from France," Bertagna said.
Detectives caught a break in October when Esparza, a doctor who had been a professor of psychology working for Webster University in Geneva, Switzerland, flew to Boston for work and was arrested.
Just recently, a witness stepped forward, allowing police to gain enough evidence to arrest Van and Diane Tran. Tran's husband committed suicide during a SWAT standoff in Irvine in July. Police say Gries, whose last known address was in Colorado, is being sought.

Worster June 2002 General Switch Management Protocol (GSMP) Packet Encapsulations for Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM), Ethernet and Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) Status of this Memo This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the "Internet Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited. Copyright Notice Copyright (C) The Internet Society (2002). All Rights Reserved. Abstract This memo specifies the encapsulation of GSMP (General Switch Management Protocol) packets in ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode), Ethernet and TCP (Transmission Control Protocol). Specification of Requirements The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [7]. 1. Introduction GSMP messages are defined in [1] and MAY be encapsulated in several different protocols for transport. This memo specifies their encapsulation in ATM AAL-5, in Ethernet or in TCP. Other encapsulations may be defined in future specifications. Doria, et. al. Standards Track [Page 1] RFC 3293 GSMP Packet Encapsulations June 2002 2. ATM Encapsulation GSMP packets are variable length and for an ATM data link layer they are encapsulated directly in an AAL-5 CPCS-PDU [3][4] with an LLC/SNAP header as illustrated: 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | LLC (0xAA-AA-03) | | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ + | SNAP (0x00-00-00-88-0C) | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | | ~ GSMP Message ~ | | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Pad (0 - 47 bytes) | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | | + AAL-5 CPCS-PDU Trailer (8 bytes) + | | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ (The convention in the documentation of Internet Protocols [5] is to express numbers in decimal. Numbers in hexadecimal format are specified by prefacing them with the characters "0x". Numbers in binary format are specified by prefacing them with the characters "0b". Data is pictured in "big-endian" order. That is, fields are described left to right, with the most significant byte on the left and the least significant byte on the right. Whenever a diagram shows a group of bytes, the order of transmission of those bytes is the normal order in which they are read in English. Whenever a byte represents a numeric quantity the left most bit in the diagram is the high order or most significant bit. That is, the bit labelled 0 is the most significant bit. Similarly, whenever a multi-byte field represents a numeric quantity the left most bit of the whole field is the most significant bit. When a multi-byte quantity is transmitted, the most significant byte is transmitted first. This is the same coding convention as is used in the ATM layer [2] and AAL-5 [3][4].) The LLC/SNAP header contains the bytes: 0xAA 0xAA 0x03 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x88 0x0C. (0x880C is the assigned Ethertype for GSMP.) The maximum transmission unit (MTU) of the GSMP Message field is 1492 bytes. Doria, et. al.

PMI Agile ACP Certification
Agile methodology is a general approach to project management and product development, which has mainly been utilized in software development. However, Project Managers everywhere are finding they can apply Agile principles and practices to virtually any knowledge worker project in a variety of industries and organizations.
As opposed to the more process-oriented, sequential, predictive structure of traditional Project Management as defined by the PMBOK® Guide, Agile methodology is more adaptive, people-oriented and focuses on constant input and cyclical change, which opens the door for more continuous improvement during the project. Agile methodology creates opportunity for the project team to continually assess the direction of the project throughout its life cycle fostering more consistent, relevant results. Those who practice Agile on a regular basis promote constant effective communication, customer and stakeholder collaboration throughout the project, and rapid response to change.
The PMI –ACP certification recognizes an individual's expertise in using agile practices in their projects, while demonstrating their increased professional versatility through agile tools and techniques. Certification carries a higher level of professional credibility as it requires a combination of agile training, experience working on agile projects, and examination on agile principles, practices, tools and techniques.
PMI -ACP certification may be right for you if:
- You already use agile practices in your projects
- Your organization is planning to adopt an agile approach
- You wish to become a more versatile project manager
- You need to adapt more quickly to basic business needs
- You would like to take a more value- and people-driven approach to projects
- You want to advance your career as a project manager
The workshop will explain what is the exam about and why it is that important nowadays. It will tell you how to prepare for the exam and show you the value which gives you the certificate.
It will present you how to prepare for the exam:
- Understand the knowledge and experience requirements for passing the PMI-ACP sm certification exam
- Identify where are the most difficulty passing the exam
- Develop a Personalized Study Plan or Coaching sessions for preparing for the PMI-ACP sm certification exam
:: Anyone involved in a project;
:: Project Managers who wish to extend their skills to manage teams more effectively;
:: Any project stakeholder with an interest in maximising team works and result orientation;
:: Prior experience of project risk management would be helpful though not essential.

|Mito-Kids is the story of four teenage sisters who have grown up with disabilities that stem from mitochondrial disease, a chronic, genetic disorder that occurs when the mitochondria of the cell fail to function properly. This is an intimate and personal story that aims to increase the understanding of mitochondrial disease and its connection to epilepsy, diabetes, ALS, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, Heart Disease and many other neurological disorders. In addition to the family footage, interviews with medical experts and original animation break down the role of mitochondria in producing cellular energy and explain what happens to the human body when these cellular powerhouses fail. The incidence of mitochondrial disease is estimated at 1:3000-4000 individuals in the US and yet the disease is relatively unheard of in the public sector and poorly understood in the medical community.

Finding Indian voices for 25 years
It's not about survival, but about being original, says Lilette Dubey as her Primetime Theatre Co. completes 25 years
"MY aim when I started the company was to find the Indian voice, be it Marathi or Gujarati," says Lilette Dubey as her theatre company, Primetime Theatre Co., enters its 25 year this year.
The company, which is known for its productions such as Aadhe Adhure, Dance Like a Man and Where Did I Leave My Purdah, is known for pushing the envelope.
"We have tackled issues like sexual abuse or Gandhi's out-of-the-box thinking, or even done plays about two Bharatnatyam dancers talking about their craft — these are not popular themes," she says, adding, "It's not just about survival but about doing what you want, and combining it what people would appreciate.
It's about 90 per cent of our work being original." Next on Primetime's agenda is planning new shows, and reviving a few old ones. "I am doing a play called Death and the Maiden, and also reviving a play called Jaya, which is a rock opera about the Mahabharat."
When: Jan 15 to Feb 21

UK: Metro Mayor of the Liverpool City Region Steve Rotheram buried a time capsule on May 16 to mark the ongoing construction of new depot facilities on an existing site at Kirkdale, where Stadler is to maintain the 52 electric multiple-units which it is to supply for Merseyrail services around Liverpool.
The depot is being built by BAM Nuttall under a £20m contract awarded by Stadler Rail Services UK last year. It is scheduled for completion ahead of the delivery of the first of the new EMUs in June 2019, and the full fleet is expected to be in service in 2021.
The contract also includes refurbishment of the existing Birkenhead North depot, which will be retained for overnight servicing and cleaning.
Kirkdale depot is being designed to minimise the movement of stock. The site will feature a maintenance shed, washing and stabling facilities, a modified wheel lathe building, office space and a driving simulator suite. The four-car EMUs will be 65 m long, but the site will have provision to accommodate the EMUs should they be lengthened to 80 m.
Speaking at the groundbreaking ceremony, Liam Robinson, Liverpool City Region's portfolio holder for transport, said the new EMUs would 'set the standard for the rest of the UK'.

AdCommunal / AdMobix Uses QR Codes to Help Transition web Marketers into Mobile Marketing Space
Christiana, DE (PRWEB) May 31, 2012
Affiliate programs, although a dime a dozen in a culture governed by internet usage and social media, need to remain current and on the very cutting edge of technology to ensure that products are appealing to marketers as well as the end consumer, and that programs are not just carbon copies of pre-existing, saturated campaigns.
Although QR codes have typically been associated with offline marketing, AdMobix has recently implemented this method into classic web marketing. This ensures that mobile marketers can monetize all users, and so that desktop marketers can test the waters of mobile marketing without leaping straight into the lions den. Offline marketing has been previously discounted by advertisers, as tracking the source and method of promotion is far less straightforward, and an e-trail is not readily available. AdMobix, however, guarantees that the advertiser need not relinquish control over a particular campaign as a result of introducing the QR code into the equation. If anything, this additional step and capability allow the agency to qualify the user based on factors beyond just their web credentials.
The process is astoundingly simple. The user clicks on the provided banner or link, and the offer landing page presents a banner of the campaign – this reassures the user that they are completing the correct offer, and reinforces the nature of the offer they will be scanning. Below, a QR code can be found, at which point, the user may pull out a readily available mobile device. Upon scanning the QR code on their desktop, the screen redirects to the offers mobile optimized landing page. The offer is now conveniently available for completion via that mobile device, and the end user has now visited the campaign both via a web page and a mobile page. This allows the affiliate marketer to evaluate the number of users that visit a given Web 2 WAP offer that also use mobile devices, and consider mobile marketing as a subsequent next step in their online marketing endeavours.
For those consumers that might not have a QR code scanner available on the device, fear not. AdCommunal has not forsaken these users. The landing page includes a link to a proprietary QR code scanner, which allows the user to download a free scanner for Android, iPhone, Blackberry,or Symbian devices.
A number of the companys recent changes including the Mobile Redirect Tool and Carrier/Phone Detection capability – are reflective of an ongoing quest to stay avant-garde and ahead of the tech curve. Says VP of New Business Initiatives, Neil Raj, AdMobixs tracking platform is a proprietary one, which gives us the liberty to try out all types of campaigns, and recalibrate campaigns based on what consumers want, and what theyre more likely to be interested in.
About AdCommunal
AdCommunal Inc. is a performance-based online marketing provider for advertisers, publishers and online affiliates in the United States, Canada and the UK. The company hosts one of the most progressive affiliate programs in the industry, providing some of the greatest return on investment for advertisers and highest payouts for publishers, with access to ad placements on various websites, blogs and social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter, all on a performance basis.

Nokia Gives Selfie Addicts Something to Smile About
For the past several months, Nokia has focused a lot on flagship phones such as the Lumia 930 and the, shall we say "budgetary conscious" part of the market with affordable models such as the Lumia 530 and Nokia X.
With the Lumia 830 and 730, unveiled today at the IFA 2014 technology show in Berlin, Microsoft's devices division has something shiny and new for the middle of the market. Not to mention its own version of the selfie phone.
Touted as an "affordable flagship," the 5-inch Lumia 830 carries over a lot of the "high end" design of the Nokia 930 and Icon models, with a metallic trim on the edge that makes the phone easier to hold. The removable back is colored polycarbonate, and it's colored on the inside, too, meaning if you scratch it, it won't ruin the color.
In back you have a 10-megapixel camera that carries Nokia's PureView label, so, in addition to good optics, it has some features to get the most out of your photos. It can capture so-called "living" photos, which are sort of like interactive GIFs.
More accurately, a living photo is a still photo captured with a few seconds of video. When a viewer clicks or taps on it, they see the video play before it freezes on the still image. You can share those via the Nokia Storyteller app and, with a Lumia software update that's debuting today as well, on Facebook.
The Lumia 830's AMOLED screen is 1,280 x 720, and the phone packs a 1.2GHz Snapdragon 400 processor and 1GB of RAM. It'll be available in September for 330 euros (about $435).
The Selfie Lumia
For the Lumia 730, Nokia is aiming for the selfie obsessed. Clearly, with its midrange specs and souped-up front camera, the phone is meant for younger users, and it's got features and a design that are teen-friendly.
First is the glossy polycarbonate exterior, which comes in four different colors and can be swapped out easily. It lacks the metallic edge of the 830, with the backside curving over the edges, making the sides one with the rear of the phone.
The front-facing camera is the scene stealer here: a wide-angle camera that can capture a lot with its 5-megapixel sensor. Once you snap your pic, the camera will use face detection to automatically correct the exposure to ensure you (and your selfie peeps) will stand out.
You like filters? Nokia built several right into the camera app, including a creative magazine-cover filter, complete with cover lines. You can get the higher-quality (6.7MP) rear camera involved in your selfies, too, with the phone beeping at different rates to let you know when your face is in the frame, then automatically snapping the pic for you.
The Lumia 730 has a 4.3-inch 1,280 x 720 display, and since it's a tad smaller than the 830, the strip of system buttons (home, back, menu) at the bottom of the screen can be hidden with swipe. The phone comes in two models: an single-SIM LTE design, called the 735, for 219 euros and a dual-SIM 3G version for 199 euros.
U.S. prices will be set by phone carriers, which may offer subsidized pricing with a contract, excluding T-Mobile.
Nokia is also launching two new accessories that work with any Lumia phone. First is a $59 wireless charging plate that plugs into any USB port. Nothing new about that, but the plate includes a couple of perks: First, it glows! While your phone is charging, a bright neon glow emanates from the bottom as it charges (you can disable the light if you want).
Second, you can pair the plate to your phone via Bluetooth. Why would you want to do that? In order to get a visual alert when your phone starts to get dangerously low on juice — as soon as it drops to 20%, the plate's light will blink.
The Microsoft Screen Share ($79), a small Apple TV-like device that you connect to an external TV is also available. Then, once you pair your phone via NFC, you can mirror your phone's display at the touch of a button.

Watch as leopard dives from tree to strike unsuspecting prey
Watch a leopard achieve an amazing kill as she strikes her unsuspecting prey from several feet in the air.
Watch a leopard achieve an amazing kill as she strikes her unsuspecting prey from several feet in the air.
While enjoying a safari with her family, Yasmin Tajik managed to capture a truly incredible moment from the natural world.
The 41-year-old from Las Vegas had her camera at the ready after her guide pointed out a female leopard perched on the branch of a nearby tree.
Hidden by the leaves, she was patiently waiting for a herd of impala antelope to graze closer to the base of the huge tree.
After biding her time for around 10 minutes, the leopard was satisfied with the impala's progression towards the kill zone, and decided to make her move.
This could end badly
The one that got away
Spot the difference!
In a daring sneak attack, the leopard leapt from the branch like lightning and sank her teeth into the unfortunate antelope that broke her fall. The rest of the herd scattered in fear, leaving their friend to its grizzly fate.
Having successfully made her kill, the leopard attempted to drag the carcass back up the tree, but this proved to be quite difficult, so she settled down on the ground to dig in to her meal.
Once she'd devoured a portion of the impala she decided to head back to the tree, however the combined weight of predator and prey caused the branches to collapse beneath her!
After polishing off what remained of the antelope, the leopard took a well-deserved nap in the shade.
They say cats always land on their feet, but apparently leopards land on their lunch!
What's your favourite big cat. Tell us in the comments below…

Registered Trade Clients Can Now Purchase Products Online
Innovative New Features Allow Seamless Communication About All Aspects of Design Projects.
New York – May 12, 2015 – Stark today announced the launch of its completely reimagined website, StarkCarpet.com, which puts new emphasis on collaboration among interior designers, their clients, and Stark account managers via an innovative new tool called Stark Boards. The company has also launched a specially tailored, trade-only e-commerce experience for registered members of the trade community.
Stark Boards are interactive, customizable mood boards that designers can use to show inspiration for a room or design. The Boards are Pinterest-like in their ability to save images, but are more engaging. Not only can images of Stark products be easily collected, shared, viewed, compared and commented on, but any digital image from any source can be uploaded, and all images can be resized, rearranged and layered, allowing designers and Stark sales staff to create true mood boards and collaborate on room schemes. Designers have the option to add their clients as users of the Boards, too, giving everyone the opportunity to discuss colors, patterns, textures—all aspects of the project. The Stark Boards are accessible exclusively through Stark's new trade-only Dashboard, which also allows registered users to track projects, bookmark favorite Stark products for easy access later, check on order status, contact Stark Senior Vice President Chad Stark through a concierge messaging service, and more.
The addition of e-commerce for registered trade clients is another major enhancement to the site. Now, designers can purchase Stark's new and antique rugs, fabrics and wallcovering online. They can also request samples for a wide array of products on the site as well as request an "in-home trial" for area rugs.
Other new features on StarkCarpet.com include a dramatically improved and expanded Products section with enhanced searching capabilities. New and antique area rugs, wall to wall carpet, fabrics, furniture and wallcovering can be filtered by type, size, color, pattern, and collection.
With a refined focus on content, Stark has added a team of writers and editors who oversee the new World of Stark section where users can find content from the company's social media channels like Instagram and Pinterest, as well as new features including:
- Ashley's Window, a new blog by Stark Senior Vice President, Design, Ashley Stark-Kenner, who will cover design trends and inspirations from her point of view as the company's creative director
- Design Showcase, a new series of profiles on designers
- Behind the Scenes, an insider's view of Stark happenings and special events
- Find a Designer, a new link to the American Society of Interior Designers' (ASID's) referral service that connects clients with North America's most talented designers
- About Us – Heritage, a timeline of milestones across Stark's more than 75 years in business
Chad Stark commented, "Our goal was to develop tools for the trade industry, rather than just upgrades to features and functionality. We have created the most responsive and intuitive experience for our clients to make browsing and shopping our assortment as enjoyable as it should be. Our Trade Dashboard that consists of Stark Boards among many other trade-only features is truly innovative and promotes the creative process. This is what sets our site apart within the industry. These innovations are the result of several years of listening to what our clients want. Increasingly, they want to be able to collaborate with us, and their own clients. We have also added responsive web design that makes the site easily viewable on mobile devices, which will be a huge benefit for designers who are always on the go. And we have completely redesigned our product listings to have an increased focus on visuals. Over the next few months we will be uploading all of the tens of thousands of products available through our showrooms as well as supporting room setting images. We are very pleased that our trade clients can now engage with our company and shop our inventory from their offices, job sites – or wherever they are, using their phones and tablets."

Most of the men and women at the top levels of business and government share a common skill. In addition to the specialised experience in a particular business or function, they have developed the ability to effectively present their ideas to a group.
In a recent survey 1500 executives, who had been promoted to the position of Chairman of the Board, President, or Vice President of leading American corporations, were asked to identify which course they considered most important in preparing them for their management careers. Seventy-two percent responded with communications.
In a broader survey three thousand people were asked to name their greatest fear. What was the most frequent answer? Speaking before a group.
A sound understanding of finance, law or marketing will make you effective on the job, but the ability to present your conclusions, insights and recommendations to your colleagues will set you apart, give you an advantage.
Faced with the need to make an effective presentation, we often become our own worst enemies. Instead of directing our attention where it can provide great benefit, too often we focus on the uncertainties of the speaking situation:
- How will I come across?
- Will my message be accepted?
- Will I forget something important?
- Will I achieve my purpose?
The first critical step on the road to Presentation Excellence is placing the spotlight on the source of your anxiety: the audience.
An audience is not a faceless entity. It is comprised of individuals who have a variety of characteristics. Understanding their particular needs, interests and attitudes relieves much of the anxiety you've come to expect when giving a presentation.
Your purpose is not only what you want to accomplish, but what you can reasonably expect the listener to think about or do, after your presentation.
This addresses the first two steps on the rewarding journey to Presentation excellence:

Bossip has learned that Rih-Rih has moved on from Chris and Janero to a better man. According to sources, Justin Timberlake has been "Running the Town" with Rihanna lately.
Apparently, Rihanna has been seen getting closer than close with Justin Timberlake, who she had a crush on years ago. Justin is working with Rihanna on her next album has had major chemistry with Rihanna and even got a couple of lap dances from her in the studio according to a source. The source says the two have been inseparable since the VMA's where they got it in on the dance floor at a VMA after party:
"Rihanna and Justin have been talking and texting on the phone nonstop since the VMAs. She asked him on the phone, 'Are you still with Jessica?' And he hinted that things were cooling off between them."
Justin was spotted going to Rih-Rih's hotel room that night, which didn't sit too well with Justin's on again, off again girlfriend, Jessica Biel. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that Jess has more cake to offer than Rih-Rih, but maybe it's not the cake he's interested in…
We are glad to see Rihanna moving on, but we hope she doesn't abandon brothers all together on the strength of Chris Brown and a couple of free tracks for her album.
