Lead assignment rules allow us to automatically assign Leads to the appropriate queue or user. A Lead assignment rule consists of multiple rule entries that define the conditions and order for assigning cases. From a Salesforce User interface, a user can trigger assignment rules by simply checking the Assign using active assignment rules checkbox under the optional section. The problem arises when you need to insert or update the Leads from Process Builder and wants to trigger assignment rules. Using the Process Builder, a Lead will be inserted or updated but assignment rule will not be triggered as there is no check box to use the organization's assignment rule or a prompt to assign using the active assignment rule. Let's start with a business use case.
Business Use Case
Pamela Kline is working as System administrator at Universal Containers (UC). She has received a requirement a to update few Lead fields when Lead Source changed to Partner Referral. As data changed by the process, she wants to fire the assignment rule as soon as Process update the lead record.
Solution for the above business requirement
There are few possible solutions for the above business scenario, but I'll use Apex and Process Builder to solve this. Before proceeding ahead, you have to understand Database.DMLOptions in Salesforce. When no other process action can get the job done, add customized functionality to your Salesforce processes by calling an Apex method. To call an Apex method, add Apex action to your process and select an Apex class with an @invocable method Annotation. It allows us to extend the Process Builder by writing Apex code that meets certain criteria and then invoking the Apex from our Process. If the class contains one or more invocable variables, manually enter values or reference field values from a related record. @InvocableMethod Annotation support bulk operations.
Apex Method
Now, we have to understand a new Apex annotation i.e. @InvocableMethod. This annotation lets us use an Apex method as being something that can be call from somewhere other than Apex. The AssignLeadsUsingAssignmentRules class contains a single method that is passing the ids of the Leads whose Lead Source changed to Partner Referral. Create the following class in your organization.
public class AssignLeadsUsingAssignmentRules
public static void LeadAssign(List
Database.DMLOptions dmo = new Database.DMLOptions();
dmo.assignmentRuleHeader.useDefaultRule= true;
Lead Leads=[select id from lead where lead.id in :LeadIds];
update Leads;
The above class will work in all the scenarios, so don't modify it. Follow the below instructions to create a Process for the above business requirement.
1. Click on Name | Setup | App Setup | Create | Workflows & Approvals | Process Builder and click on the New button, Enter Name, API Name and then click on the Save button.
2. The next step is to add entry criteria. For this click on Add Object, select Lead object and for the entry criteria, Select when a record is created or edited, as shown in the below screenshot, once you are done click on the Save button.
3. The next task is to add Process Criteria, To do this click on Add Criteria, enter Name, Type of action and set filter conditions (In this case set [Lead].LeadSource Equals Partner Referral as shown in the following screenshot.
Make sure to select the checkbox Do you want to execute the actions only when specified changes are made to the record?
4. The next step is to add an Immediate action to Process. Click on Add Action (Under Immediate actions), Select the type of action to create (In our case Record Updates to update the Lead fields), and then fill out the fields to define the action, as shown in the following screenshot.
5. Because of trigger and order of execution, the next task is to set the time for scheduled action (Apex). For this click on Set Schedule available under Scheduled actions. Set time for scheduled actions as shown in the following screenshot.
6. Now we have to add a Time-based action into the Process to execute Apex. For this select action type Apex, Use Field Picker to choose the field [Lead].Id, as shown in the following screenshot.
Under Apex Class section, It will list out all the classes that contain methods annotated with @InvocableMethod Annotation.
7. Once you are done, click on the Save button, it will redirect you to Process canvas. Finally, the Process will look like the following screenshot.
Don't forget to active the Process by clicking on the Activate button.
It's time to test this feature
1) Navigate to the Lead tab, identify the Lead record and click on Lead Name to open record detail page, as shown in the following screenshot.
2) Now update the Lead Source to Partner Referral, as shown in the following screenshot.
Once you are done, click on the save button.
3) Now check out the Lead record, Lead Status and Rating field has updated by process builder, and there is no impact on Lead Owner, as shown in the following screenshot.
4) Wait for some time to let the execute the time-based action, and refresh Lead record again.
Note: – I will suggest you implement this first on your developer org, test it and then move it to production. The same approach will work for case assignment rule. Download Apex and Test class from GitHub.

It was getting moved around the schedule every week and it was on at so many different times. The changing of time slots all the time lost the show viewers, which resulted in the axe falling on it I think. I know by the time it was axed though, viewers were complaining that storylines were getting too far fetched and ridiculous - maybe that was part of its downfall? But I personally feel that Channel 4 ultimately killed it.

Thinking of a place at Whitehall Park School?
It's fast approaching that time of year when parents and families are considering their options for school places for Reception in 2015. At Whitehall Park we have been hosting a number of events for parents and families including guided tours, Information sessions and individual meetings. Our final event in 2014 is our Open Afternoon which is intended as a drop-in session for families who didn't get the opportunity to visit us for a tour or for one of the Information sessions. The school will be open to visitors between 2pm and 3.30pm on Friday 5th December, so drop in and take a look around. We also still have some availability on our tours and a place can be booked by contacting Sylvia Lefever-Jones on email@example.com.
Why choose Whitehall Park School?
At Whitehall Park, we are passionate about ensuring the very best educational experience for every child. Our small, community school has highly qualified staff who are dedicated to providing a rich, balanced and broad curriculum within a positive and collaborative learning environment. Blending the best of the independent and state sectors, we have unashamedly high expectations for every child academically, socially and emotionally by ensuring that children, staff and families work actively in partnership to enable all children to realise their full potential. In addition, our extensive Extended School day which is available for Reception children upwards and is available from 7.45am until 6pm means that we offer a solution for many working parents who need the flexibility and support with child care. Take a look around our website to find out more about us and are hopes and dreams for every child.
We want every child to:-
Develop a love for learning
Our curriculum is broad and balanced with a focus on reading, writing and maths. Linked to a half-termly theme, lessons are always delivered in a fun and engaging way and our personalised approach means that we can tailor learning to each pupil's requirements. Whilst we focus firmly on the core subjects, children experience a wide range of sporting, creative and stimulating experiences and sessions. This term alone children have had the opportunity to welcome many visitors into school including music producers, members of local community groups and specialist teachers. Children also have the opportunity to undertake visits within the local area and also to museums, galleries and other relevant attractions.
At Whitehall Park School we pride ourselves in ensuring our accurate observations and assessments enable us to develop precision teaching for each child to ensure they are effectively supported or challenged. Whilst we ensure that every session has highly differentiated quality first teaching, we also provide additional support and challenge for children throughout the school day. Our small teaching and intervention groups provided by our additional teaching and support staff means that children can be supported in a range of areas of extended through specific groups that identify and nurture particular gifts or talents.
It is wonderful to see our current children establishing friendships, growing in confidence, developing core skills and a love for learning so quickly. Come along and see what Whitehall Park is really like for every child.
We aim to:-
Create an active partnership with families
We believe that education should be an active partnership between the parent and the school. As such, parents and carers are encouraged to build a deep relationship with the school and its staff and all parents are invited to join the Friends of Whitehall Park PTCA.
Parents meetings, held once a term, give parents the opportunity to find out how their child has settled in, how they are achieving in all areas of their learning and what they can do to support their child at home. Weekly reading sessions also give parents the opportunity to learn about the structured but fun way we teach reading and phonics. We also regularly hold information sessions so that parents can find out about the ways in which we teach and the strategies we use.
The BBC have produced a really useful guide for parents and families. Take a look at the link below:-

Our shoe trees are made out of Eastern Red Cedar, a wood recognized for its beauty, durability, moisture absorption and aromatic properties. This unique species of cedar has exceptional cutting qualities and is highly valued for its pleasing odor. Cedar oil in the wood is commonly considered an effective moth deterrent and cedar chests were about the only way early settlers could protect their woolens. Common names for this wood include aromatic red cedar, savin, red juniper and Virginia juniper.
In recent years, there has been increasing concern about environmental issues, particularly in regard to the depletion of the earth's natural resources. Easter Red Cedar is actually a Cypress species, which is common only to North America and is most abundant in the southeastern region of the United States. Aromatic cedar is a prolific tree, which grows faster than associated species because it is sun-adapted, drought-resistant, and has a long growing season. It is adaptable to diverse climactic conditions and adverse soil conditions. In addition, its range of distribution has been considerably extended by natural regeneration. Seeds, spread randomly by both the wind and animals, will sprout quite literally where they drop. It is not uncommon to see cedar growing in sporadic clumps along major highways and in fields. According to an USDA Forest Service Report, only 40-60% of the net annual growth of Easter Red Cedar is being harvested each year. Thus, the supply of this product is increasing. Other studies also conclude that the supply is expanding faster than the trees are being harvested.
Aromatic cedar is not an endangered species. From an environmental point of view, the world's forests are not in jeopardy because of cedar shoe tree production.

Learning From Small Samples: An Analysis of Simple Decision Heuristics
Part of: Advances in Neural Information Processing Systems 28 (NIPS 2015)
A note about reviews: "heavy" review comments were provided by reviewers in the program committee as part of the evaluation process for NIPS 2015, along with posted responses during the author feedback period. Numerical scores from both "heavy" and "light" reviewers are not provided in the review link below.
Conference Event Type: Poster
Simple decision heuristics are models of human and animal behavior that use few pieces of information---perhaps only a single piece of information---and integrate the pieces in simple ways, for example, by considering them sequentially, one at a time, or by giving them equal weight. It is unknown how quickly these heuristics can be learned from experience. We show, analytically and empirically, that only a few training samples lead to substantial progress in learning. We focus on three families of heuristics: single-cue decision making, lexicographic decision making, and tallying. Our empirical analysis is the most extensive to date, employing 63 natural data sets on diverse subjects.

I never liked the saying, "All good things must come to an end," especially when it applies to me. But I think the time has come to end our monthly social media meetups.
Things change, and while social media was still fairly new, a forum like our monthly meetups was needed. But most of you who are interested in learning or talking about social media have forged ahead and no longer need our help.
It was a great run for nearly four years, and I appreciate all of the input I received from those of you who attended. I am also grateful to the many new friends I made because of the meetups.
It is sad to say that this Thursday will be our last meetup. I hope all of you who have attended before (and those of you who always wanted to but couldn't make it) will be there to celebrate the occasion.
We will meet at 7 p.m. Thursday at T-Bone's Records and Cafe on Hardy Street. I hope to see you there.

Of all the players during Advent, I believe the season really belongs to Mary. She said 'Yes' to God, with no guarantee as to how it would pan out, so I wanted to pay tribute to her courage and generosity with this painting. Many artistic interpretations of Mary render her in a submissive and passive role, with eyes downcast or meekly looking at her baby. My interpretation affords Mary much more agency and thus I have her break from demure tradition and engage the viewer boldly and directly. I also have her holding her baby in such a way as to acknowledge that the child is not just hers, but that she is consciously "offering" the child to us, the viewer.

Chickpea Salad (aka Fake Tuna Salad)
One of my favorite, easy to make, go-to meals is this fake tuna salad recipe. I often make a big batch of this the night before, using a portion for dinner and bringing the leftovers for lunch at the crag the following day. It's super versatile – you can eat it as a salad, make cold sandwiches with greens and tomato, or (my favorite) make a grilled "tuna" melt sandwich. Chickpea Salad (aka Fake Tuna Salad) 15 oz. garbanzo beans (mashed) 2 tbsp. mayonnaise 2 tsp. spicy brown mustard 1 tbsp. pickles (chopped) 1/2 onion (chopped) In a medium bowl, combine beans, mayonnaise, mustard, pickles, onions, and add salt and pepper to taste. Mix well. *I make variations of this recipe depending on the ingredients I have available. I will leave out pickles and add in diced tomatoes, as I often have a can of those on hand. Dirtbag Tip: Save mustard and mayonnaise packets from restaurants to use in this recipe!

Plot / Synopsis
Quantum of Solace
continues the high octane adventures of James Bond (Daniel Craig) in
Casino Royale
Betrayed by Vesper, the woman he loved, 007 fights the urge to make his latest mission personal. Pursuing his determination to uncover the truth, Bond and M (Judi Dench) interrogate Mr White (Jesper Christensen) who reveals the organization which blackmailed Vesper is far more complex and dangerous than anyone had imagined.
Forensic intelligence links an Mi6 traitor to a bank account in Haiti where a case of mistaken identity introduces Bond to the beautiful but feisty Camille (Olga Kurylenko), a woman who has her own vendetta. Camille leads Bond straight to Dominic Greene (Mathieu Amalric), a ruthless business man and major force within the mysterious organization.
On a mission that leads him to Austria, Italy and South America, Bond discovers that Greene, conspiring to take total control of one of the world's most important natural resources, is forging a deal with the exiled General Medrano (Joaquin Cosio). Using his associates in the organization, and manipulating his powerful contacts within the CIA and the British government, Greene promises to overthrow the existing regime in a Latin American country, giving the General control of the country in exchange for a seemingly barren piece of land.
In a minefield of treachery, murder and deceit, Bond allies with old friends in a battle to uncover the truth. As he gets closer to finding the man responsible for the betrayal of Vesper, 007 must keep one step ahead of the CIA, the terrorists and even M, to unravel Greene's sinister plan and stop his organization.

Mississippi freight rates Mississippi freight rates are higher in the summer months, especially outbound freight shipping, due to the agriculture and produce markets. When produce comes into season, trucks can be hard to find. A better time for shipping freight to Mississippi is during the summer. Mississippi has some under-populated areas that make LTL prices average to high in the state. The ease and cost of shipping into or out of Mississippi can be heavily based on proximity to major metro areas.
Hawaii freight rates Freight shipping to Hawaii is one of the most expensive of any state. Air freight and ocean freight transport are key to shipping in and out of Hawaii. Normal truckload rates will be calculated on the road for part of the way, and over air or ocean the rest of the way.

Outstanding Nourishment Tips For A Healthy And Balanced Life
Getting proper nutrition is one of the best ways to get in good health and stay that way. However, many people do not know what proper nutrition is. In the following article, you are going to be provided with advice that will you get on the road to good health via proper nutrition.
If you care about someone who needs to improve their nutrition, you have a challenging road ahead, but you can make progress and you should try. If you live with someone who is overweight or otherwise unhealthy, you can approach the subject in a loving way. You can introduce weblink small changes, like substituting Splenda for the sugar, in the sugar bowl. You can gradually work down from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eating_disorder whole to 1% milk and you can switch from white to whole wheat bread. Even if these changes don't change your loved one's weight, that person will be getting more solid nutrition and will be in better health.
Try not to buy into the fact that fruit juices and vegetable juices are a healthy beverage option. Many store bought varieties are riddled with sugar, sodium, and other additives that make them no better than something like a soda. It is best to stick to whole fruits. However, if you do desire fruit juice, the best way is to make your own with a juicer and fresh fruit and vegetables.
Quinoa is an option to consider when trying to reduce your red meat intake. Quinoa is a rare food that is not meat but still contains amino acids. It's also chock full of vitamins and free of gluten. Because Quinoa has a mild and nutty flavor, it also tastes great, so you're certain to enjoy it.
Eliminating junk food from your diet can be difficult, but it is very rewarding. Old, died-in-the wool, junk-food eating habits make it difficult for a person to embrace a healthier way of eating. You may continue wanting these foods for weeks after giving them up. You should know what the cravings feel like and use that to want to eat good foods.
Make sure that your digestive system is functioning properly. Make sure you stay hydrated, take fiber, and get probiotics in your diet.
To ensure that you always have some high-quality protein readily available, pick up some frozen boneless and skinless chicken breasts to keep in the freezer. They're easy to defrost in a covered skillet over low heat, and you can finish cooking them in the same pan. Add some instant rice and fresh vegetables for an easy nutritious dinner.
Don't eat anything with microwave directions on the package. Any food that is packaged for microwave use has tons of preservatives in it which can cause you to gain weight.
Eating the right diet that supports exercise levels and gives the body the required materials to rebuild itself, is a key component to physical fitness. Having the right amount of protein will allow for muscle growth. Providing enough carbohydrates will give the body fuel for the day. The right diet makes a big difference.
Many people run into problems when they eat simply out of boredom. Remind yourself that hobbies and activity cure boredom; eating is not a hobby. What's more, boredom eating is generally mindless. In other words, you can eat, but there's a pretty good chance that you will still be bored... even with your mouth full of food.
Salad is one of the best things that you can put into your body, and can limit the amount of fat that you consume. Instead of eating a hearty meal that is filled with calories and carbohydrates, eat a salad. This will go a long way in your quest for the perfect body.
To ensure that you always have some high-quality protein readily available, pick up some frozen boneless and skinless chicken breasts to keep in the freezer. They're easy to defrost in a covered skillet over low heat, and you can finish cooking them in the same pan. Add some instant rice and fresh vegetables for an easy nutritious dinner.
Tape your goal to your bath room mirror, to your refrigerator, your computer monitor, and even your television remote. Whenever you look in the mirror, you will be reminded of how you are bettering your life. When you go to open the refrigerator, it will remind you that you need to eat healthy.
A great nutrition tip if you're pregnant is to consume a little bit of fluoride. Fluoride is very important because it will help your baby's teeth develop. Their teeth tends to develop early on, in the first trimester. Another way to consume fluoride is by eating kale.
You can track meals with an easy to use online diet tracker. Tracking your diet can help you identify the reasons behind weight gain. If you are fairly inactive and/or eat foods high in carbohydrates or fats, these facts may be contributing to your gain. If you track your meals, you will begin to make healthier choices since you have to see exactly what you eat and how much.
As was stated in the beginning of this article, nutrition is what can make the difference between you having good or bad health. If you use the advice that this article has provided, you will be able to begin the path to proper nutrition and be in the greatest health you have ever been in!

Hello! Welcome to An Interview With. This used to be a regular segment for Sounds Good before taking a little snooze, so I'm super happy to say that interviews will be making a return to proceedings! Our first interview back is with Lisabel, an artist we featured at the start of the month with her superb live performances of the songs 'My Mister K' and 'No More Blues I'm Free' as part of her Home Live Sessions. In our little chinwag we discuss Lisabel's influences, her upcoming debut album and what's next for her and her career. Enjoy!
Hey Lisabel, how's it going? Hi Adam, I'm great, how are you? (I'm great thank you)
You're pretty brand new to the music world, so what's the story behind why you wanted to create music of your own? I've been playing and singing for a while now but I was caught up in my musical studies until recently so in the meantime I was enjoying songwriting and experimenting with different projects before releasing original music. I started writing when I was 16 but I only started to feel confident and satisfied with my music a couple of years ago… It's that type of inspiration that feeds your creativity and you just follow every bit of it without doubting it; I trusted my instincts.
You've recently dropped a video of your Home Live session performance. How was that? and are we to expect the two songs on it to appear on your forthcoming debut album? The songs 'My Mister K/No More Blues I'm Free' will be on the album with a different vibe! They are very special songs for me, they talk about an important moment of my life where I felt awaken by love. I did a live acoustic video to showcase the songwriting without a big arrangement and I decided to do it in my home because I could create the right atmosphere to represent the songs and myself. I was really lucky to have on piano Nikola Kovacevic who I'm also working with on producing my album.
Speaking of your debut record, what details can you give about it? The album is in the making…I have a strong vision for the sound I'd like to get out of it, but I think things can always change while in the process. It will definitely be a collection of my life's stories but…I can't tell you just yet what the title will be but it will be released some time in 2018. I really can't wait for everyone to hear the things I have to say and the sounds I love.
So you're originally from Italy, but are located here in London. What made you decide to make the jump to the UK? How are you finding life here? When I was little I was exposed mainly to international music. I never sung in Italian simply because the music I was listening to was always sung in English and the style of music that I liked wasn't necessarily played by Italian artists. When I decided to continue my musical studies I chose London because I knew it was a great city to pursue music. Life here is great, the city brings satisfaction in terms of music but it's very demanding and difficult to live in…I love nature and quiet places!
Your bio states that your songwriting is often inspired by personal experiences and stories. Do you find it's easier to write songs based around intimate details? Definitely…I'm inspired by everything around me that catches my eyes or connects to my soul…I write about love, friendships, society, my beliefs and the power of nature is also a big subject in my writing.
What's next for Lisabel? More new music, live shows etc? At the moment I'm concentrating on the production of the album but I've had the pleasure of working with great artists and friends this past year. I enjoy taking parts of other people's projects and visions, it makes me grow.
I've done a live show last month with my original music but there's nothing planned for the next couple of months…I'm doing my best to resist the temptation of gigging with my music because I want to play it live when everything is in the right place, including all the sounds and arrangements.
Finally, if you could close out this interview with one final thought, what would it be? My final thought is…Thank you for the opportunity to speak with you, I'm very happy you've enjoyed the live video and some of my previous recordings! Grazie!

Any tennis fans? Since Justine Henin's abrupt retirement, the womens field is wide open. Although I would say Serena, Ivanovic or Jankovic are the 3 faves. On the men's side it's probably gonna be Nadal winning it. Federer should make it to the final. Wouldn't be suprised to see Djokovic in the mix either.

Chloroquine was hugely successful in combating the disease when launched in the 1950s - but the malaria parasite gradually became resistant.
Now Australian researchers have found combining the drug with another preparation, Primaquine, seems to restore its effect.
New Scientist magazine reports that new malaria drugs are needed badly.
The parasite which causes the disease - Plasmodium falciparum - has proved extraordinarily adept at evolving to combat many of the drugs currently on the market.
And those that are in use, known as artemisinin-based combination therapies, are expensive - and thus not readily available in the poorest countries where need is greatest.
Last week UNICEF, the United Nations Children's Fund, warned that 6 million people in Ethiopia, many of them children under five, were at risk of contracting malaria.
Toxic compound
Chloroquine - which is far cheaper than more modern malaria drugs - works by blocking the way the parasite breaks down human haemoglobin contained in red blood cells.
If the haem molecules remain in an uncrystallised form, they are toxic to the parasite, and kill it.
However, to be effective chloroquine must reach a high concentration in the digestive apparatus of the parasite.
Research by the Liverpool School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine showed resistant forms of the parasite can effectively neutralise the drug by developing a mechanism that drains chloroquine away from the key area, preventing it from reaching the necessary concentration.
This means that while the drug may ease malaria symptoms, it will not cure the infection.
A team from La Trobe University in Melbourne tested the effect of combing chloroquine with primaquine, a drug normally used to treat a less severe form of malaria.
On its own, primaquine has no effect on P. falciparum, but it is structurally similar to chloroquine.
The La Trobe team believes that primaquine acts to block the pores on the surface of the parasite's digestive apparatus - thus preventing chloroquine from leaking out.
Researcher Dr Leann Tilley said: "If you put chloroquine and primaquine together at the right concentration in the lab, it's as effective on chloroquine-resistant parasites as chloroquine is on sensitive parasites."
Dr Tilley, who presented her work to a meeting of the Australian Society for Microbiology in Canberra, plans to start field trials of the drug combination soon, perhaps in Indonesia.
Possible complication
Professor Ron Behrens, of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, said primaquine was not suitable for all patients, as it could trigger the break down of red blood cells in people with an enzyme deficiency.
He said testing people for the deficiency before administering the drug combination could push costs up.
Professor Behrens said: "It is an interesting biochemical process that they have uncovered, but my anxiety is that primaquine is not an easy drug to use widely.
"However, it may be that now they have found a mechanism, they will be able to find other safer drugs to use in combination with chloroquine."
Dr Tilley said cheap tests for the enzyme deficiency were available, but agreed they would add to the cost of treatment.
"Any trial which we set up to test the efficacy of the treatment will also need to assess the potential risk to the patients with this deficiency."

The Sixth Annual SMPI Snowbird workshop concluded after three days of shooting in Snowbird's amazing terrain and dynamic conditions. Everyone had a great time, and produced a ton of awesome skiing and snowboarding imagery. The workshop consisted of on-hill instruction, where attendees worked with a highly talented group of skiers and snowboarders while learning about composition and camera techniques. Daily classroom sessions provided image processing tutorials, and helpful feedback about each image captured each day. Phase One Cameras generously donated several of their high-end medium format camera systems for workshop attendees to use. They also provided a classroom demonstration of their powerful image processing software, Capture One. Hensel Lighting supplied a professional-grade lighting setup for attendees to learn how to effectively use strobes in ski and snowboard photography. Access to such new and innovative photo equipment for the weekend was incredibly exciting, and was an opportunity that would be difficult to come by outside of the workshop. The workshop was a huge success, and many incredible images were produced throughout the weekend. A big thank you to all the athletes and photographers who participated. A huge thanks goes to Snowbird Ski and Summer Resort for providing an incredible venue and support to make this workshop possible. Thank you as well to the workshop's sponsors: Zeal Optics, Discrete Clothing, GoalZero, Pictureline, Izm Apparel, Snocru, Coola Suncare, Stance Socks, Gu Energy Labs, and F-Stop Gear. See you there next year! What attendees said about their experience at SMPI Snowbird Workshop 2015: "He (Scott) was down-to-earth, easygoing, and patient with the constant three-day flow of questions directed at him." " If I had to pick out a couple of really meaningful things to me I'd point to 'the little things' and 'confidence'. You can certainly learn a lot from books, videos, and traditional classroom instruction, but the little things that come from years of experience are special." "The workshop improved my skills as a photographer on and off the mountain." "Now knowing what to do in the context of an on-hill shoot means I no longer hesitate to ask an athlete to go out and shoot, knowing that I can deliver something I'll be proud of." Stay tuned for upcoming workshops! Contact Scott Markewitz directly at firstname.lastname@example.com for any inquiries.

The U.S. government has granted an encryption export license to one of the biggest thorns in its side.
Pretty Good Privacy says it has won approval to export strong encryption technology overseas. The license allows PGP to export technology up to 128 bits without a key recovery plan; the government's regular licenses limit exports to 56 bits.
Key recovery means that the cryptographic keys used to decode encrypted information must be available if a law enforcement agency has a court order for access to the data.
PGP's founder, cryptographer Phil Zimmermann, became something of a cause celebre when his technology was posted on the Net in defiance of laws prohibiting international distribution of encryption technology. Zimmermann came close to being charged before the government dropped its case.
To date, the government had only approved 128-bit encryption exports for technology that protects financial transactions. But PGP technology can encrypt any kind of digital communication, including its email product, now called Personal Privacy. The company said that more than half of Fortune 100 companies use its email software.
The export license does not cover foreign offices of U.S. firms in embargoed countries, namely Cuba, Iran, Iraq, Libya, North Korea, Sudan, or Syria.
PGP said it still opposes export controls on encryption products but welcomed the permission as a boon to encryption needs of U.S. firms overseas.
The company still has another old foe to worry about. Encryption software firm RSA Data Security earlier this month filed a lawsuit against PGP over royalties RSA wants to collect. The suit alleges that PGP is using RSA technology licensed to Lemcom before its merger with PGP in 1996. PGP representatives say the dispute should be arbitrated as stated in the contract and that RSA's claims are without merit.

Advertising a Crowdfunding Campaign on TV – A Cautionary Tale.
I was a first-hand witness to crowdfunding history this morning. What is usually a lazy Sunday morning turned into a scramble-for-my-phone and record-something-fast moment. That's because I saw the first-ever TV commercial advertising a crowdfunding campaign.
Yes indeed friends and neighbors! I was a witness to the next evolutionary step in crowdfunding promotion; a TV commercial for a crowdfunding campaign.
What does this mean for you? The stakes on promoting a crowdfunding campaign just got higher. Not necessarily better. Or more effective. But higher. And a lot more expensive. Check out the GoFundMe crowdfunding campaign and you be the judge of how effective these commercials are.
My initial impression? I was impressed at this new high water mark for advertising a crowdfunding campaign but totally unimpressed by the result. Not a single dollar was raised within 45 minutes of that commercial airing. It aired during the 8 AM hour on the local Fox channel. Not a little channel and it didn't air in the middle of the night. In other words, lots and lots of people saw the commercial yet nobody decided to act on it. What's less impressive? This campaign is nine months old and has only raised $6,910 of a $250,000 goal. The last donation was over three weeks ago – on July 7th. Ignoring all other considerations for just a moment — it's a shame that such a noble project hasn't raised much more money in far less time to help our veterans enjoy a quality life after leaving the service.
What can we learn from this? The strategies for advertising a crowdfunding campaign should be carefully considered not only in terms of cost but also effectiveness. We see all too often the stunning amounts of money people waste on ineffective crowdfunding marketing. Too frequently, crowdfunders operate under the mistaken notion that crowdfunding success is guaranteed if they just spend enough money on advertising, public relations, etc. This myth is dangerous as too many people burn through lots of cash on all kinds of crowdfunding promotion only to find out that everything they tried failed to make the mark.
Effective crowdfunding marketing is not determined solely on the amount of money you spend. Many of our clients spent no more than $799 on our Pro promotion plan, lined up lots of articles and interviews and did an impressive job at grassroots promotion and ended up hitting – and in many cases exceeding – their funding goal while saving themselves bundles of cash.
There's much to learn from this crowdfunding campaign – and not just about advertising a crowdfunding campaign. I encourage everyone to study this project very carefully from every angle. And make a contribution of any amount. Veterans put their life on their line for us. The least we can do is make a tax-deductible contribution to help a veteran live their life with dignity — https://www.gofundme.com/veteransvillagelv

Reg Presley, singer of the Troggs and the voice on one of the true rock and roll anthems, 1966's "Wild Thing," passed away late Monday night at age 71. Friend and publicist Keith Altham told Fox News that Presley, who fronted the Troggs until retiring in January 2012, had been battling cancer for some time.
Written by American Chip Taylor, "Wild Thing" became one of the cornerstones of what was rapidly developing into garage rock, with a few simple chords and a plodding beat - a song that virtually anyone could play, and thousands upon thousands did. Less than 100 words long, its lyrics were easier to understand but no less suggestive than "Louie Louie," another fraternity-house standard.
Part of the famous British Invasion that sprang up in the wake of Beatlemania, the Troggs' primitive approach to rock and roll was reflected in their name, an abbreviation of "Troglodyte." Hailing from Andover in the southern English county of Hampshire, the band was signed by Kinks manager Larry Page in 1965. After its exposure on the British pop television showcase Thank Your Lucky Stars, "Wild Thing" reached No. 2 on the UK charts in July 1966.
It did better in America, reaching No. 1, and Yanks took to "Wild Thing" right away. Jimi Hendrix performed an early definitive version at the 1967 Monterey Pop Festival, and when punk rock reared up about a decade later, the song's simplicity made it an anthem all over again after it was picked up by bands like the Runaways and X.
But the Troggs were no one-hit wonders, either. The band hit the UK Top 10 with "With a Girl Like You," "I Can't Control Myself," and "Love Is All Around," which also appears on the 1992 album the Troggs recorded with R.E.M., Athens Andover. The song also topped the charts for 15 weeks a couple of years later, after the UK band Wet Wet Wet's cover was featured in the 1994 Hugh Grant film Four Weddings and a Funeral.
The Troggs originally split up in March 1969, but reformed with a lineup that included Presley shortly thereafter. Although other members came and went, the singer remained with the band for the next 40 years.

Auto Insurance Reviews Matter a Great Deal
Insurance on your vehicle is necessary. These are among the periodic expenses incurred at keeping your vehicle. A variety of insurance providers are available in the insurance market. The discounts that they present range intimately but all in all offer coverage on your automobile. In consideration of the fact that a lot of insurance providers are out there, getting the most suitable one among many will get many confused. It is an open air industry, and sales persons will hijack you, subscribe you to their company if you don't know what you're seeking. At the end of it all, you could realize that you entered into a package that you will be not that more comfortable with within the first place.
The huge issue here is how you would create a comparison between your available insurance policy vendors so that you may land on the perfect one by tastes and requirements. Review of posts is the way to go. In today's contemporary business environment, obtaining information is very straightforward. All you have to do is get access to the internet and voila, a myriad of text displays from which you can do your selection. Also, on the other hand, all business directories are on the internet nowadays and so are the insurance companies. People who have dealt with insurance companies create blogs whereby they share information on the best and worst service providers. Also, each site has that feedback portion that one may employ to view those reviews. Viewing this information is the first step in getting to compare the insurance companies that are available at your fingertips.
The benefits that you gain from searching through reviews are many. First of all, you will be made aware of the perks they offer beforehand. This shows you that you do not have to have a direct interaction with a sales agent. It would be good for you to get feedback from people who've experienced their solutions if you narrow down on a selection of an insurance provider. It is also crucial that you observe the deal of care the insurance carrier you're involved presents its customers. The reviews from those other customers can give you a clear insight on this matter. The ones that have a good reputation are swift to act in the event a bad situation happens.
It is a proven point that most of the first insurance deals end up being undesirable just because they were improperly informed and went right away to the first sales agent they came in contact with. Do not end up in this type of condition, make a comparison between numerous insurance agencies by going to critiques and make that ultimate educated view. You will not regret this undertaking.

ostas Sousoulas, a sophomore in the entrepreneurship and small business management program, believes that people would eat healthier if nutritious food and drinks were more conveniently available—perhaps as quick and accessible as a smoothie from a food truck.
So, he created a business that does just that. His company, Yimello Smoothies, sells pre-packaged gourmet fruit smoothies—in South Beach, Berry Good Breakfast and Strawberry Banana Blast flavors—from a food truck. He is currently developing partnerships with grocery retailers to sell his all-natural products in area stores.
"Ever since I was a kid, I've been intrigued with health and food. My family is in the food business and I wanted to make it more convenient and more affordable for people to eat healthy," said Sousoulas, from Branford, Connecticut. "The product caters to people on the go."
He's developed a pretty good business plan—so good, he won the Global Student Entrepreneur Awards competition held in Norwalk in November. On March 6, he'll head to Kansas City, Montana, to compete in the GSEA national competition. The winner in Kansas City will be one of 50 student entrepreneurs from around the world who will compete in the global finals in Frankfurt, Germany, in April 2017 for prizes worth about $400,000.
"I feel inspired and humbled to have this opportunity to share my product with the incredible judges of the Global Student Entrepreneur Awards and to represent my school and state," Sousoulas said.

The label's name precisely outlines what today's theoretical analysts should study and practice before daring to type a single sentence about sound, particularly at this level of outside-the-canon noncompliance. That the first release submitted by this imprint encloses dissected waveforms, nonfigurative fantasies, blotchy partials and lucid dreams by two veritable specialists is therefore entirely fitting. For decades now, Obermayer and Ross have been involved in the transformation of acoustic nuclei via self-designed generators. A deeply individual experimentation that puts an improvising artist in an enviable condition, being able to conceive with considerable sureness a starting frame for a given concept to evolve according to aleatoric principles influenced by manual intervention. In Time Probe this happens within innumerable stages of multiplication and refraction, more infrequently repetition. The outcome is informed by a soft-spoken anarchy vaguely reminiscent of Tod Dockstader's awe-inspiring soundscapes, but still in a class of its own.
Every pulsation, hyperbole, flash, chance meeting and infinitesimal fragmentation collected by the ears may recall, to retrieve an old stereotype, a microscopic view of ever-moving cells. However, distinguishing legitimate research – this – from the mediocre laptop allurements that get dispatched nowadays as "abstract electronica" could not be so easy for the gullible segments of the listening population. The artistic veracity is in this case ascertainable through a simple process of parallel correspondences; the experts will automatically connect the dots and the lines of malleable structures shaping Obermayer and Ross' cosmos and, at the same instant, attributing various degrees of nobility to their textural juxtapositions. Unfortunately, the inherent repercussions of complexity prevent many people from learning to welcome the disfigurement of tradition. Or, if you will, dissonance – namely, the best teacher of acceptance at large. But it is never too late to start investing in auditive incentives against metaphysical empty-headedness; in that regard, this music will generate abundant profits.

I discovered a rendering problem of my website while viewing it on Internet Explorer 7 (IE7): floated images were leaving big chunky "holes" in otherwise normal blocks of paragraphs. Fortunately, I've discovered a solution and am posting it here to help jog my memory the next time I run across it. This bug has likely been documented already and probably has some really cool name like "Phantom Floated Image Bug" but just in case it hasn't been named, that's what I'm calling it. Before you read any farther you need to know this: I don't pretend to be a master of Cascading Stylesheets (CSS) and I can't possibly take a look at your site's code (I'd probably screw it up for you anyway). I just post the solutions that I've found here for my own benefit, if they help you then feel free to leave a comment telling me that I saved you some time!

So today, I'm happy to announce my newest invention: the cardboard briefcase.

Tornado Damage to GWCC!
On our way to the hockey game on Tuesday evening we passed by the Georgia World Congress Center, which was hammered by the tornado that plowed through downtown back in March. Looking like the sort of modern architecture rarely executed in Atlanta, this video shows how the west wall of the building is virtually sheathed in a layer of plywood. Counting the filled-in panes it looks like there could easily be more than 500 pieces of glass to be replaced on just the west side of this, Atlanta's largest convention center. Near the end of the video you can see some of the damage to the towers downtown. Amazing!
Update: For those who might be worried, I was a backseat passenger when I shot this video.
Hosket Redux
This past Tuesday, April 1st, I returned to Philips Arena with the Sharps to thrill again to the fantastic game of hockey. As I detailed in my post of May 25th, the hockey girls use big scoops to collect shaved ice from the rink. While I haven't figured out exactly where it goes yet, I have managed to capture video of the game itself!
