Topographical & Setting Out Survey Previous Project at the Port of Monrovia, Liberia, Africa
Learn about our topographical and setting out surveys at the Port of Monrovia, Liberia
Article By: Tom Ayre
Last Update: August 2019
Client: Pharos Marine / Port Of Monrovia
Project Duration: October 2016
Location: Port Of Monrovia, Monrovia, Liberia, Africa
Project Scope
THS Concepts were appointed by Pharos Marine to undertake an existing survey of 2 navigation towers at the Freeport of Monrovia, and the setting out/realignment of the navigation towers, which had been built incorrectly. The Freeport of Monrovia is an important freight terminal in Liberia, West Africa. This busy port handles over 90% of the imports into Liberia, so it's an important piece of infrastructure!
Navigation towers are an essential element of port operations: they allow ships to safely navigate into the port at night. The port's towers are built approximately 250m from each other and the principal concept is that the towers should align when a ship is on the correct course travelling into the port. Our problem was that the existing towers had been built at an incorrect angle. As a result, the ships travelling in would have had to travel through the port's breakwater – which obviously could not happen. In fact, the navigation tools were so flawed that no ships entered the port at night!
Undertaking the Topographical Survey
To start with, Chris and Tom surveyed the existing, incorrectly-built towers. They were approximately 8 degrees off of the line they should have been on. 8 degrees may seem insignificant, but the port stretches 1.5 km so it equated to a big error. Looking over the previous surveying companies' notes we discovered that the company had used hand-held compasses to set out the works! We weren't filled with confidence in the integrity of the previous surveyors!
Undertaking the Setting Out Survey
Following the topographical survey, it was time to prepare suitable locations for the realignment to take place. Calculating where the new towers were to be placed involved surveying the existing navigation buoys as well as the extent of the harbour opening. This was an interesting experience, traveling on a boat that looked like it could sink at any moment… Once the existing layout of the port had been established it was time to start setting out the new foundations. The port employed a Liberia-based building company to dig out, construct the shuttering and pour the new foundations. As you can expect, the health and safety attitudes we adhere to in western Europe hadn't yet appeared in mainstream Liberia… No shoes, employees cutting and binding electricity cables themselves, working 18 hours a day, etc…
Once the foundations were dug, it was time to orientate and level the tower base that was concreted into the foundations. It was crucial that this too was set to the correct orientation and level to ensure that the triangle points on the towers aligned with each other correctly. We worked right up to our limit and worked within minutes of having to leave as our plane back home was about to leave! Luckily with about an hour to spare we managed to get the towers aligned and level. We left it up to the Liberians to finish the foundations!
Overall the project went very well, it was carried out on time and the essential task of aligning the towers was done correctly.

I recently won two contests in hogwarts_elite and placed in two more. Yay!
Here's my entries.
First, and I have to say this is the most fun I've ever had entering an H_E contest, svimmelhet had a karaoke contest where you were supposed to rewrite a song and karaoke it. I...misread the rules and thought I was supposed to karaoke as a character, which brought about the following:
Grawp Just Want Bang Stick.
I really, really want to do more Grawp karaoke. Any requests? If you can supply the karaoke .mp3, even better.
Then, I have two art entries. The first one just got third place, and the second one didn't place, but hey, they are some of my first art using my tablet. So!
Finally, my fics. The first one placed first-- it's a fic where the prompt was to write part of a whodunnit starring canon characters.
Poughkeepsie, New York, August 20, 2008.
It was raining as I left the house on Raymond Avenue in my beat-up 1998 Jeep Cherokee, the smell of the fried food emanating from the Acropolis Diner enough to clog my arteries from five hundred feet away.
A kid from one of the local colleges tried to beat the light. I slammed on the brakes just in the nick of time-- that was the last thing I needed, to kill a college kid. Probably from Vassar. Probably a fag, and wouldn't that be just my luck; they'd probably try to pin in on me as a hate crime. He was wearing Birkenstocks. Damn hippie.
It was still raining as I reached my dilapidated office, the kind of thick, heavy, grey rain that pelts you like rocks and leaves bruises if you haven't got an umbrella. I'd seen the last of my umbrella three weeks prior, chasing that small-time donut crook who was having an affair with the mayor's wife. What a case that had been.
But that's what it was coming down to. Donuts and marital infidelity. There's not much work for a private eye in the Mid-Hudson Valley. And that's what I am. The name's Dursley. Dudley Dursley, Private Investigator. Fortunately, there were still enough dames who hired me just to listen to my sexy English accent.
Anyway, on that particularly rainy day, as I headed up to my clunky little office, the last thing I expected was that a ghost from my past would walk through the door.
Well, not so much walk. I suppose she had walked through the door, but she was already sitting there, ass as tight as Michael Phelps' swimsuit and twice as slippery. I didn't recognize her at first, not all those years later, and sure as hell not in that slinky little black dress that didn't leave a thing to the imagination.
The first words out of her mouth? "Duddles!" Nobody but my mother calls me Duddles. Nobody. So imagine what I'm thinking when I hear it out of the lips of some kinky dame.
"Mum didn't write the dating service again?" I asked her, as I divested myself of my wet coat.
"What? Oh, no," she replied, lighting up her cigarette.
Without a lighter.
"Shit," I said, even though I knew better than to swear in front of a dame. "Pardon my French, lady, but I--"
She grinned, flashing a whole mouthful of the pearliest pearly whites this side of a poster of the cast of High School Musical II and held out a hand. "You don't remember me," she said.
"I sure as hell want to," I said.
"Nymphadora Tonks. But shh--" and she held up one perfectly-manicured finger to her lips. "I'm supposed to be dead."
"Don't worry," I assured her. "So am I. And anyway, living in Poughkeepsie almost qualifies. What can I do for you, N--" I hesitated. I wasn't sure how the hell to pronounce her name, even when she'd just said it to me not thirty seconds before.
"It's Tonks," she answered. "And I'm here for a friend. We've got five thousand dollars cash for you if you can retrieve a particular...item."
"If this is about somebody's wand being left in a whorehouse, you can take it down the road to Archer's office," I informed her, stepping forward to get the door.
"Oh, no, nothing like that." She took a long, slow drag on her cigarette, and blew a smoke ring in my direction.
The thing about wizards? Their smoke rings don't stay rings. They turn into hearts, moons, stars, clovers, diamonds, and purple horseshoes. And don't even get me started on the smell. She had the Lucky Charms marshmallow smell down, too. If there was ever a reason to pick up smoking...I tried to keep a clear head, though, but this dame was messing me up, bad. And I never thought I'd say that about one of them.
But I was still waiting for her answer.
"It's an eye," she said. "A glass eye. Originally crafted in Malta in sixteen-eleven by the great wizard Edaps Mas, and stolen from him shortly thereafter, the eye has left a path of destruction in its wake. It was seen in Marat's bathtub in seventeen eighty-nine, and at Waterloo in eighteen-fifteen. It was nearly burned at Atlanta during the American Civil War, and can be seen in the background of publicity stills from Teddy Roosevelt's third presidential campaign under the Bull Moose party. And now..."
She paused again. For dramatic effect.
"Let me guess, you're going to say it's here in Poughkeepsie."
"Better," the woman said. "It's here in this office."
"A Maltese eyeball? Lady, I don't know--" I was going to tell her I didn't know what the hell she was talking about, and break my rule about swearing again, but before I knew what was happening, she had one of those goddamn sticks pointed at me. You know. Wands.
"One false move, and I'll give you back that cute little piggy tail," she warned, extinguishing her cigarette on the centerfold of my nudie magazine. "Stay where you are."
I did what I was told. With my hands in the air, I backed up against the door to my office. She opened up my desk drawers, dumping out back issues of Playboy and Sports Illustrated onto the carpet, then moved onto the file cabinet, where she found my secret stash of Little Debbie snack cakes.
And ate two of them, before she located the safe behind the cheap framed print of Whistler's Mother. Me, I thought it loaned an air of dignity to the place.
"Look, lady, I'm the only one who's got the code to that safe, and there's confidential information in there. My clients have a right to their privacy, and I already got my phones tapped for eating at the Afghani restaurant."
The broad poked her damn wand at the lock, said something in Hawaiian, and bang! The safe popped open like a cheap whore who's just been handed a twenty.
And there it was. The eye.
But it wasn't so much the glass eye that got me. It was more the hand that was holding it. And the gruesome remains of the mauled corpse attached to the hand.
"Shit," I said, forgetting that I wasn't supposed to move as I stepped up to the body. It had...half-moon cuts all over it. Real, big gouges. Like toothmarks. "Who the hell did that?" And there I was, swearing in front of a lady. Again.
"I don't think it's so much a who as a what," said Tonks, as she took the eye and gave it a casual toss.
"Look, lady, I don't know who you are, but number one, I don't think you should just be walking around with that...thing...in your pocket. And number two, I don't believe you're giving me five thousand dollars for something you just plucked outta a hole in my wall."
"That's right, Duddles," she answered, looking cheerful enough you'd think she'd just won at the slots. "I didn't. I'm giving you five-thousand dollars to help me figure out who's after the real one."
"And who killed that poor sap. This one..." She gave the eyeball another toss and held it up to her own eye. "Is a decoy."
"You're forgetting one more question, Sister," I reminded her gravely.
"Oh? What's that?"
"What the hell are they doing in Poughkeepsie?"
The second one didn't place, it's supposed to be a fic about a character on the other side of death.
"Look…at…me…" he whispered.
The green eyes found black, but after a second... Severus' vision began to swim, and he tried to hold onto the image, tried to focus on Lily's eyes...
His last thought before he died was the brutal reminder that those eyes didn't belong to Lily.
There might have been a brief moment of blackness, of nothing, of simple and unadulterated peace, no consciousness, no thought, no guilt or bitterness, but then, slowly and surely, his vision returned, first whiteness from black, and then pale blurs, shadows on light, that bled into blues and greens and browns.
"Lily, don't do it!" came an all-too-familiar, high-pitched shriek, and it was just at that moment that Severus recognized the scene.
The playground.
The little girl flew from the swing, red hair flying in the air even as she hovered so slightly and game down in a graceful ballerina landing.
She frowned at him, warily, looking up at the pale-faced man.
"Time has not been good to you," she informed him.
He laughed, bitterly, and covered his face with one of his thin, bony, calloused hands, spindly fingers reaching for his temples.
He could not answer her.
The girl tipped her head from side to side, eyeing him solemnly with the same eyes he had stared into only moments before.
She sighed, huffed, blowing a strand of orange hair from her freckled face. "What, are you just going to stand there?" she asked him. "Isn't this what you've been waiting for all these years?"
This was some kind of trick. It must be. The snake's venom...
He dropped his hand from his face, fingers curling into tight fists, a sneer turning up his mouth. "What is this?" he demanded hotly, hearing the virulence in his own tone, aching even as he spoke to direct it at that face.
But she was still serene. "This is it, Sev. Eternity. I mean, not Eternity eternity, but...you're dead. Kaput. Sprung off the mortal coil. And I hear you got it pretty bad. Snake, huh? But the really sad thing is that even after almost twenty years, I'm the only person you've got to greet you."
She was a teenager now, those Muggle tooth-braces glinting silver in the sun, a rubbed-red acne scar on her nose, her hair pulled back from her face with a wide headband. Her two pale, red-headed eyebrows arched upward as she inspected him with a chastening expression, walking a narrow circle around him. "I really hoped you'd change."
"Change?" he demanded, stiffening in defense at the accusation. "I spent the last seven years taking care of your stubborn, intolerable ass of a son, and--"
"Oh, so imagine that," said Lily, twisting a lock of hair around her finger. "I didn't even marry you, and he still took after you! How did that happen?"
"ME? He's just like his father," Severus answered, hissing the words as he spoke. "I still don't understand why you ever had anything to do with that ass."
Lily gave him a rather dry look. "Because he didn't call me a mudblood, Sev," she answered. She had grown older still, nearing the age she had been the last time he'd seen her, just out of school, shortly before she died. "You think I haven't been watching my own kid? We can do that from here, you know. He doesn't listen, he says things he regrets, he's always certain he's right, he acts like a royal prat...he's got more in common with you than you think. He just made better friends than you did." Her tone and expression softened with the words, her eyes washing sympathy over him.
And he let his hands relax finally, but he looked at the ground-- he couldn't look her in the eyes now. "I didn't need friends," he said. "I had you."
"Everybody needs friends, Sev."
He raised an eyebrow at her. "I'm dead, aren't I?" he demanded. "Is it absolutely necessary that I spend the rest of my otherwise remarkably pleasant afterlife hearing a lecture on all my terrible and countless shortcomings?"
Lily grinned and laughed at him. "Hey, I don't get to choose what you get. It's your subconscious. C'mon," she urged, starting up the hill. "Swing me. There's no Petunia in your afterlife."
"Thank god for small blessings."
And finally, one about motherhood. This one placed third.
Monica Wilkins had a hole in her stocking. It was one of those distresing holes that forms right at the tip of one's toes, and sort of pops up around the toe over the course of the day, so it itches and tickles, and no matter how one adjusts it, it creeps right back up the moment one's shoe is back on one's foot.
It was one of those sorts of days. Monica had had to put braces on a rather nasty little boy who kept biting her fingers, and had to sing the "Brush your teeth, round and round" song sixteen times over the course of the afternoon-- three times to the same four-year-old patient who kept clapping and squealing "AGAIN, AGAIN!" until Monica's voice had started to go hoarse from the repetition.
She was looking forward to nothing more than a nice cup of tea and a hot bath to take the edge off-- and, of course, to kick off those shoes and tug off those annoying stockings the moment she entered the house.
But in the process of kicking off her shoes, she kicked right into a thick, yellow envelope that was waiting for her just inside the front door to the Wilkins home.
She knew immediately what it was, and almost squealed for joy as she forgot the stockings and picked it up, hefting it lightly in both hands. She wondered if heavy was good. She hoped heavy was good. She began to tear open the seal, and then stopped, letting out a resigned sigh. She couldn't, couldn't open it without Wendell.
A moment later, she had him on the line from the office. "It's come," she said, her voice barely a whisper, as if saying it too loudly might make it vanish.
"What's come, dumpling?" Wendell asked. "No, no," he said suddenly, and then she realized he must be talking to a patient, "none of your actual wisdom will be extracted along with the tooth."
"The envelope. From the adoption agency."
"It has?" he asked, suddenly rapt.
"Oh, Honey, I can barely contain myself. I-- I don't know why we never did this before. A baby!" Monica exclaimed, trying hard not to let her voice break. "They're going to give us a baby! And we're-- Oh, love, we're both past forty. Are we too old?"
"Monnie, honey, we've had this conversation a hundred times," Wendell said, reassuringly. "You're not too old. I know the doctors said we're too old to have one of our own, but you'll make a perfect mother, I promise."
"Promise," Wendell answered.
She smiled, softly, and stroked the envelope lovingly, as if it were a baby itself. "I love you, darling," she told him.
"I love you, dear. And our baby is going to have perfect, perfect teeth."
"I was thinking, I've always liked names from Shakespeare. Or Greek mythology. Do you think that's too obscure?"
"Of course not, sweetheart. We-- can we talk about this later? I've got to get back to this extraction."
Monica hung up the phone and put the envelope down on the kitchen table, wondering again to herself why it had taken them so long. She'd always wanted a baby...hadn't she? But then dental school had gotten in the way, and then their careers, and...well, now they were finally going to have a little boy or girl of their very own, just so long as the results of their application-- oh, her heart was beating so quickly.
She looked back at the envelope, tapping her fingers. Wendell wouldn't be home for another two hours yet, and...could she wait that long? She was impatient already, and to think just five minutes ago, the most important thing on her mind had been her stockings. In the next year...why, with a baby, one could hardly worry about holes in stockings. It seemed so inconsequential now.
She laughed at herself, and went to fix tea, but she could feel it, the power of that envelope behind her...she couldn't help but look at it over her shoulder.
The water was set to boiling...now what? She looked at the clock. She had an hour, fifty-seven minutes. This was too much.
With one hour, fifty-one minutes left to wait, the suspense finally drove Monica Wilkins to distraction. She tore into the envelope.
But instead of a sheaf of papers tumbling into her lap, there was a poof of pink smoke, and suddenly, there in front of her was a strange-looking young girl with a mass of frizzy hair, large teeth, and something terribly, terribly familiar about her.
Monica Wilkins let out a scream of terror.
"Hi, mum," said Hermione.

The Bank has warned lenders it is considering changes to the way bonuses are measured to make it far harder for big-hitting investment bankers to justify their multi-million pound awards.
The threat follows the central bank's decision last week to force British lenders to "limit" bonuses this year in order to shore up their balance sheets against the looming eurozone crisis.
According to the Centre for Economic & Business Research, City bonuses last year came to £6.7bn and are expected to be £4.2bn this year. At their peak in 2006 and 2007, £11bn was paid.
The threat of a bonus crackdown was made in the Bank's Financial Stability Report. It said the Financial Policy Committee (FPC), which has the power to set new rules, had "noted that performance metrics, such as return on equity targets, that take little account of the risks taken to achieve them could be distorting incentives".
It added: "Given the importance the committee attaches to this issue, it agreed to consider it in greater depth at a future meeting. It would consider, among other things, the extent to which such performance metrics influence …remuneration."
The disclosure appears to be an early warning that reform is coming. At least two leading members of the FPC have been campaigning for change for some time, endorsed by the Bank.
Robert Jenkins, an external member, said earlier this month: "Return on equity is the wrong target. Over the last 10 to 15 years it has helped to make many bankers rich and loyal shareholders poor."
Although technical, the reform would have far-reaching implications. Return on equity, or RoE, rewards bankers for taking risk that in the recent crisis was ultimately borne by taxpayers.
Instead, both Andy Haldane, the Bank's executive director of financial stability and a member of the FPC, and Mr Jenkins believe that bonuses should be measured against return on assets, or RoA, which adjusts for risk.
"While the risks have typically been borne by wider society, the returns have been harvested by bank shareholders and managers," Mr Haldane has said.
According to his analysis, the effect on bonuses from switching targets would potentially be huge. Between 1989 and 2007, in which time there was "increasing focus on RoE as a performance target", the average pay of the top seven US investment bank bosses rose from $2.8m to $26m. If their performance had been linked to RoA, it would have increased to just $3.4m.
"Rather than rising [from 100 times] to 500 times median US household income, it would have fallen to around 68 times," Mr Haldane said.
The difference can be illustrated using a mortgage. If a house price rises in value from £100,000 to £110,000, the RoA is just £10,000, or 10pc. But if it was bought with a £10,000 deposit and £90,000 debt, the RoE on the £10,000 of equity is 100pc.
However, where homeowners bear the risk of a fall in house prices, bankers do not. According to Mr Haldane: "In effect, RoE is skill multiplied by luck."
Robert Talbut, chief investment officer at fund manager Royal London Asset Management, which manages £40bn, said: "This is something shareholders have been talking about with management for about 12 months.
"RoA would lead to reducing the size of the overall bonus pool because it is a harder target for them to meet. It is a more risk-averse measure of how banks are actually performing."

Initially I wrote off Masterforce as just being Menard's cheapo brand, but after looking at it, I'm not so sure in the case of this saw. I'm trying to get over my bias! There's not a whole lot of information to find on the web – I haven't been able to find a single review of it. For more info on the saw, see http://www.menards.com/main/tools-hardware/power-tools/saws/masterforce-10-jobsite-table-saw-with-gravity-assist-stand/p-1724748-c-12931.htm. You can download the pdf of the manual there and see that it has a lot of good features – easy to remove blade/riving knife and blade guard system.
It seems to be targeted as competition for the Ridgid R4510 given the list price and gravity rise stand. In the store, it seems to be well built. It takes a 3/4" 8" dado stack, so the motor is probably pretty powerful (it doesn't state the HP in the manual).
I was thinking about buying the Bosch 4100-09, but I am only a weekend warrior so I don't need the top of the line saw and don't want to pay for the best if something like the Masterforce will work well for my needs. It seems to be the only one in the $300 price range (it's on sale for $349) that takes a 3/4" dado. I don't have a garage, so I'll be hauling this thing up from the basement to use it outdoors most likely, so portability is important. Another one I've looked at is the Porter Cable PCB220TS, but it only takes a 1/2" dado and the fence doesn't seem great (it does have good reviews though). Craftsman doesn't have a mid-level one with the stand and 3/4" dado either. I've also looked at the DW745 and GTS1031, but it seems like a better idea to get one with a stand, 24" rip capacity and dado if I'm already going to invest $300+ for one of those?
Does anyone have any experience with the Masterforce jobsite saw? I partly just want to buy one and write a review about it to get some information out there, but I don't want to throw away $350 :)
Anyways, I'll stop babbling on…thanks for your help!

Joe Batt's Arm - Wedding Customs
A popular wedding custom in Joe Batt's Arm involves shooting guns off into the sky to salute the newly wed couple. This custom is hard to miss as the gun blasts can be heard throughout the community. The Penton family took part in this wedding custom when one of their family members got married.

Signs that indicate that your child should see the family doctor include:
A child with a temperature under 38.5 C (101.5 F) usually does not have a bacterial infection and so does not need an antibiotic. Fever over 38.5 C may be caused by bacterial infection such as strep throat, ear infection, or urinary tract infection. In this case, your child likely needs an antibiotic.
If your child is not urinating well or tearing up, treatment for dehydration may be needed.
Constipation can result from not eating well, a blockage in the bowel or something else. A lack of bowel movements along with vomiting can be caused by something worse than constipation alone. Your doctor should investigate.
Diarrhea can be caused by a viral or bacterial infection, food poisoning or food that does not agree with your child. If the diarrhea does not stop within 24 hours, see your family doctor. If you breastfeed your baby, keep nursing. If your baby no longer breast-feeds and has diarrhea, try a soy based formula. A BRAT diet (bananas, rice, applesauce and toast) is a good choice for children who eat solid foods. Make sure your child is getting enough to drink!
If the crying or crankiness won't stop, the problem may be something you cannot see – a headache, pulled muscle, broken bone or something more serious. Try your regular comfort measures, such as giving pain medication, using ice or heat. If you cannot soothe your child, it's time to see the family doctor.
Suspect a problem if your child is playing less or not at all, is not eating or drinking as usual, or sleeps badly or too much. Does crying come when you drive over a bump in the road? Watch to see if your child is limping or favoring a body part, and visit the doctor if this is the case.
Falling for no reason, poor coordination, or limping could suggest seizures, tumours or infection. Please have your child checked by your family doctor.
If you are ever worried or unsure of what a child's behaviour or symptoms mean, see your family doctor. It is always safer to get medical help sooner than later.

NEW YORK (Reuters Life!) - Four out of 10 Americans say they don't need a marriage certificate to prove love or commitment, according to a new online survey.
Overall, 44 percent of the 7,113 Americans aged 20 to 69 who took part in the poll by Zogby International and AOL Personals said they didn't need marriage to validate their relationships.
"Across all age groups, you just don't need a marriage certificate to mean love," AOL Personals Director Keith Brengle told Reuters.
"People are coming online to find that special someone but that special someone doesn't necessarily translate into a marriage, and more so with the folks in their 60s."
Half the respondents between the ages 20 and 29 said marriage wasn't necessary.
A majority of respondents also said they would prefer to live together first before marriage and most said marriage should truly be until "death do us part," especially those in their 30s (73 percent).
Trust was ranked highly important to most singles polled, especially for those in their 20s.
Although 20-somethings said they were more open to experimenting with sexual relationships, they were also more willing to end a partnership over infidelity when compared to respondents in their 50s and 60s.
"Trust is still extremely important for the 20-somethings -- they wouldn't work through any infidelities, they'd walk away," Brengle said.
However, older respondents were more interested in companionship, didn't feel the need to be married and were more comfortable accepting infidelity "as a part of life."
"They've probably been tested so they're much more accepting of things that traditionally you would think they wouldn't be," Brengle said.
"As such they're going to be less likely to have to snoop through a partner's things to try to find indiscretions."
The survey also found that as people age they are more likely to believe that more than one soulmate exists.
A majority of those polled said they would date someone their friends found unattractive, were willing to date someone with different political or religious beliefs, a different race or a person with a physical disability.
However, the poll showed people were less willing to date someone with a life-long sexually transmitted disease or someone with poor hygiene.
The poll was conducted between Nov 9 and 12, 2007, and has a margin of error of +/- 1.2 percentage points.

A Southeastern United States' Department of Transportation (DOT) had a major landslide on a major interstate in the eastern part of their state. The DOT's geotechnical group designed the repair and the DOT's Regional Engineer's team led the project that included a 100-foot-high excavation on a 1:1 slope to key in a rock buttress.
Once the Regional Engineer decided that their excavation should be temporarily shored, it was estimated that due to site constraints that shoring the excavation with traditional soil nails would delay the project by a month. Instead, the DOT elected to use Launched Nails, which in contrast to traditional nails assume load immediately. GeoStabilization International® completed the shoring in four days and within the active excavation; while the general contractor reported no delays. The regional engineer estimates the use of Launched Nails saved the state hundreds of thousands of dollars.
In the Mid-Atlantic Region of the United States a rockslide occurred that presented a variety of problems for the state's Department of Transportation (DOT).

One Response to "Browsera | Testing Web Browser Compatibility for Free"
Great software! I found the importance of browser compatibility when I had to access several sites at work. It's such a hassle when you get to open one site with a particular browser, but not with another which you usually use. It's better to know a site's browser compatibility first before starting anything.

Mysticism is the language of images. The Trilogy uses such images and imagery to enable to reader to read between the lines to find the real meaning of the story. These are just some of the images in the books.
God standeth in the Congregation of God (El)
In the midst of gods (elohim) He judgeth
All the foundations of the earth are moved.
I said: Ye are gods,
And all of you sons of the Most High (Elyon)
Nevertheles ye shall die like men,
And fall like one of the princes (sarim).
Psalm 82:1, 5-7
Waking God presents the stereotypical "vampire" and "werewolf" in a new and more faithful way. In the excerpt below, Niliahah clearly explains the nature of Vie-pyres and Dogs of Isis, collectively known as the "Watchers," to the main character. In the Bible, the Watchers are connected to the fall of the "day star" or "morning star" after an apparent revolt (Isaiah 14). For centuries, the Watchers were associated with Lucifer, and hence, evil and wicked deeds. This could not be further from the truth....
* * *
"I am a Watcher, but some call us the Vie-pyre. The term means life-fire or altar."
"You mean you're a vampire, a B-movie bloodsucker?" He became immediately aware of how bold and offensive his statement was, and stiffened his back for fear of retribution.
Smiling, she said, "That is what they would have you believe." Though she spoke softly, there was contempt in her voice. "We do not suck blood. The Church invented this myth to frighten the young. And since they claimed to have the weapons to defeat these bloodsuckers, those who scare easily went running into their folds. We are great healers. The blood contains the life-fire and we can both give and take that fire. There is life-fire in the air; it permeates all. We can use that force to heal a wound or disease, or to extract defective fire. It is the extraction that gave rise to the blood legends."
Andrew was not sure how to pursue this line of discussion, or whether it was even wise to do so. In some curious way, it was almost comical.
"And Moloc?" he asked.
"Moloc is a Dog of Isis. In the beginning time, words had meanings that differ from the words of today," she explained. "The term means 'those devoted to Eve or Isis.' Before Paradise was lost, we were as one being. When the Veil formed and duality permitted the physical, our nature was separated as we entered the illusion. Consciousness separated into the higher and the lower. Moloc is the lower, and he, too, is a healer on the gross physical level. He and those like him take the form of the wolf, for it is closest in meaning to those who practice undying devotion and loyalty to the Goddess. Those of the collar took to hunting the Molocs of the world because of their ties to the female rather than the male creative force. It is the Moon that guides Moloc's path, but he is not controlled by it. I am fire and air; Moloc is water and earth."

HIVE Strikes In First Look Images From Next Week's Episode Of Arrow
After a string of what could be described as "filler" episodes of Arrow, it's nice to see that next week's instalment is going to be shifting the spotlight back to Team Arrow's battle against HIVE as Damien Darhk and that villainous organization look to put Star City's heroes down for good.
For more details on what's to come in "Code Of Silence," here's the official synopsis:
Oliver (Stephen Amell) and team uncover HIVE's plan to take out Team Arrow once and for all. With HIVE's next attack imminent, Lance (Paul Blackthorne) wonders if Donna (guest star Charlotte Ross) is safer without him in her life. Meanwhile, with the wedding fast approaching, Oliver begins to feel guilty that he hasn't told Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) about his son. James Bamford directed the episode written by Wendy Mericle & Oscar Balderrama.
It definitely sounds like this episode of Arrow is going to move season four's overarching story on a fair bit, but will we get any closer to finding out which character is lying in that grave? That's been a major talking point since the premiere, and as great a villain as Darhk has been so far, he desperately needs to hurry up and do something to get viewers to really hate him.
To check out the promo for this upcoming episode of Arrow, be sure to click right here, and as always, drop a comment below letting us know what you think is going to happen.

Is AA Free?
Alcoholics Anonymous is a program that does not require payments or insurance for enrollment. This group is based solely on peer involvement and discussion, so there is no need for dues or fees of any kind. If you would like to find treatment call 800-839-1686Who Answers? today.
AA is Free of Charge
AA is free to anyone who wishes to attend meetings, practice the 12 steps, and become part of the program. There are many reasons why this option is without cost for its members and why it is of particular benefit to those who may be considering attending a meeting in the future.
- Substance abuse and addiction can be extremely difficult on someone financially, whether it is because the individual loses their job as a result of their behavior or spends all their money on alcohol. Having a free treatment option is especially helpful to people in this situation, of which there are many.
- Some people will not seek out treatment at all because of the cost factor, believing it will be better for them to go through their recovery alone. This can save many individuals from this often dangerous decision and make it less likely for the person to experience relapse and other issues.
- A person can begin AA right away without having to wait for a payment to clear or insurance companies to get involved. There are many meetings available, often once or multiple times a day in larger cities, and individuals can focus on finding immediate help instead of waiting for payments to go through.
While there is often a collection taken up at the program, members are free to contribute as much or as little as they like. There is no mandatory payment expected.
AA is Flexible
This is only one of the reasons why AA is such a flexible program, which makes it very attractive and beneficial to many recovering alcoholics. According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, "One reason for the popularity of MHGs [mutual-help groups, of which AA is one] may be their inherent flexibility and responsiveness. People can attend MHGs as frequently and for as long as they want without insurance and without divulging personal information."
The flexibility of the program also makes a person more likely to use it when they need it and move on when they no longer do. You can attend AA for as long as you like without ever paying a cent and then leave the program when you are ready. If you feel later on in your recovery that the program could benefit you again, you may decide to attend another meeting or go to them on a regular basis, picking up right where you left off. Whatever your situation, you won't be asked to pay for the program.
Will AA Help Me?
Attending a meeting won't cost you anything, and you can find out if the program would be helpful to you by doing so. You can also call 800-839-1686Who Answers? to learn more about AA or to find meetings scheduled near you. Call now to find out if AA might be helpful to you.

A 21-year-old is going viral after sharing the weirdest things about teaching kids just a few years younger than herself.
Megan Diskin is a college student at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. She's also a student-teacher who works with high schoolers each day.
According to her, that can create a pretty weird dynamic in the classroom, as Diskin explained in a TikTok video that now has more than 110,000 views.
"What it's like being a 21 year old student teacher to high schoolers," she captioned her clip.
What it's like being a 21 year old student teacher to high schoolers ##fyp ##teachers ##highschool ##studentteacher♬ Renee – Sales
Although she's not the main teacher in her classroom, it seems like Diskin has encountered plenty of weird issues.
For one, her clip says that students are constantly telling her she's "hot," and finding her social media pages.
The 21-year-old adds that she's "extremely uncomfortable" in class at times. She also said that the students are constantly asking if she's "old enough" to be their teacher.
Diskin's video drew plenty of comments on TikTok, with many users sharing similar experiences.
"Girl yes, I got hired at 20 … to each seniors," one user wrote.
"I understand completely. I started teaching high school at 22 and this still happens. Don't be discouraged," another wrote.
"About to run a lab for undergraduates at 22 and I'm terrified," another added.

Hello you gorgeous bunch of humans!
I can hold on the suspense any longer so I'm gonna dive right in! I got a gorgeous eyeshadow brush in today's door!!
I love love love makeup brushes especially when you find ones that are really good quality. Ones that are soft and don't shed there bristles ha! I have a few different brands of makeup brushes which I love, including Real Technique and some Mac brushes. They are all really good but as you can guess I also have some No7 brushes which I am literally in love with.
They are such good quality so I was over joyed when I opened today's door and found that I had an eyeshadow brush that I don't yet have and it's in a beautiful gold colour.
I'm thinking this is more of a blending brush than one you would apply straight onto yours lids. Super fluffy brush which makes it so much easier to blend. I just can't get enough of it.
I just thought I'd add another picture featuring some of the No7 brushes I have along with some eyeshadows, just because they are gorgeous and I love them and really wanted to share with them you.
I would really recommend these brushes especially if your after some of good quality that are gonna last you a very long time.
Can't wait to see what tomorrow's door is hiding! Come back and take a look with me!
Speak tomorrow lovely ones ♥

Chart Your Clients' Treatment Journey Using Tetra Outcomes
We do more than collect data . . . we help you convert it into action!
Great Data Lead To Great Treatment Outcomes
Without proven monitoring systems, providers miss opportunities to improve individual care and have difficulty showing the efficaciousness of their program. The lack of these tested monitoring systems is one of the main reasons that behavioral health and substance abuse treatment are chronically underfunded.
The Compass system, powered by Tetra Outcomes, includes the required software, assessment questions, administration approach and frequency to measure the critical four conditions for successful treatment.
The Four Conditions For Successful Treatment
Assessments That Make A Difference
Whether you are reviewing a report for an individual patient or the entire organization, the reports in Tetra Outcomes are succinct and understandable. They're as easy to follow as a compass pointing to the pole.
Colored markers indicate whether the patient and the prescribed treatment is on-track or if changes should be made. Green is all clear, orange is cautionary, and red indicates some intervention is usually warranted.
Monitor Your Facility: Know More. Do More.
In addition to the four conditions for successful treatment : expectations, skills, recognition, and relationships, each Tetra Outcomes report provides a multidimensional look at treatment, including:
- Client Progress
- Client Outlook
- Program Efficacy
- Effectiveness of supporting structures
- Success of individual and group interactions
Recommendations in the reports help you tailor treatment plans, assess and predict the duration of treatment, identify new behaviors and routines that will help with treatment, and improve the four conditions for successful treatment.

Recently flagged for using the software commercially. I have teamviewer installed on 3 computers, all mine. I have logged in with my account on each to remote access throughout the day. I only connect every couple of days for a few minutes at a time.
How can I get this flag removed? I now can only connect for 1 minute every 12 minutes.
The same exact thing has happened to me!
Trying to help my Grandmother make a card on her computer. So painful to try and help her over the phone. Teamviewer helped out so much being able to see her screen and help her. So much that I got it installed on my friends and aunt/uncles computers. 12 computers in total.
Now I can connect to my Grandmothers machine for like 5 seconds before I get booted off for 20minutes, and I am not exaggerating, it's not 30seconds, it's 5 seconds.
Now, I know I could go to a different free service, but I'd prefer to just keep using teamviewer since it's all installed and ready to go. I am not opposed to paying some money to be able to use the service to connect to my friends and family. However, I can't afford $50/mo to help them out once every few days... Do they have a plan that's $20/year that is for non-commercial usage? Maybe not so many features?
Any advice?
I am wondering how many people over the last couple of month expirienced the disconnects and the claim you are using the program comercially. Lets give credit to the company that they created a good product and ther commitment for none comercial fee usage. Thats said there is 2 reasons so many people complain, either your programmers **bleep** and cant detect comercial usage reliable or your marketing department decided it is worth **bleep**ing of the free usesers if you can convert 10% of them to paying customers. Neither is an acceptable practice. As they will ignore or brush people off who complain the best way is to force the issue. If you feel that you are wrongly prohibited from using the non comercial version, reply to this treat and if we have enough intrest we can look for a law firm who likes to take on class action cases. The profit they made from converting those free users will be gone faster then they think.
Yeah, Im leaving. I cant stand this. I use teamviewer to shut off my pc's and do updates on them. Im not going to pay for this. The way im using teamviewer, IS NOT COMMERCIAL. SEE YA!
Have also used for years. Have submitted forms & logs to 'certify' non compercial use a couple times. I use it solely to access a couple of PC's that push CWOP (Citizen Weather Observer Program - operative word "Civilian") weather data to the web from our residence and a cottage a couple states away. Oh and to support my wife and her home computer. Was fine a week ago, but now get connections shut down after a minute. If I wasn't sketchy last week (and twice TeamViewer verified personal user), why am I starting this morning? Love the product, but enough is soon to be enough...
I am as frustrated as anyone with the situation, but I have had success in filling in and submitting the forms noted on page one of this subject. If you have not tried the form, I suggest you do so. I have 13 IDs that I use - some are local on my home LAN and some are in friends' homes, reached via the Internet. I submitted a form for each ID and 12 of the 13 are working correctly. The 13th has been an on and off issue. See my post, below (search for FORM WORKED!), for more details and EDITs as the situation changes.
To those looking for an alternative product, I have no specific recommendations, but I did a comparison and found most of the competitors are lacking in features that TeamViewer Free has (contact list, notification of logon, for examples). For that reason, I will not change unless TeamViewer becomes completely unusable for me.
Good luck!
It happened again. I have a computer that switched to insider builds (on its own and then said trial has expired) When I did a full settings uninsall and reinsall everything was normal. But today once again it is on Insider and trial has expired even though it says free in the interface. What is going on and how to stop it?
Same here. How can we fix it?
Just this morning, I am receiving the following in a dialog box.
Connection blocked after timeout
Your license limits the maximum session duration to a partner, immediate reconnects are blocked. Please try later or upgrade your license.
Connections to this partner will be blocked until (time shows here)
What is going on. I have a free license and have been helping my girlfriend with her computer and phone. Have not had this problem until this morning.
Any help would be much appreciated.
I have used TeamViewer to access my phone from my school which is at a remote location for personal use, and it has worked just fine up till this point. Yesterday it began thinking I was using TeamViewer in a commercial enviroment, and now times me out after 5 minutes, and makes me wait 10 minutes before re-establishing the connection. I hope this can be fixed.
I am having this same problem as of this morning. I'm using TV from work but TO my home, with only a few computers listed on my account. Please fix this. I stopped using TV a while ago when the site was breached and only started using it again recently. Would hate to have to find another solution.
If Teamviewer is detecting your use as commercial, and you're actually only using it for personal reasons, you need to fill out their form here: https://www.teamviewer.com/en/support/commercial-use-suspected/
Then hope they get back to you in a reasonable time and believe you.
Yeah, I've done so, but this is stupid. I'm looking for a replacement.
Agreed, and same.
I wonder if I tripped a security mechanism or something because I think I fell asleep waiting for it to something. In anycase It's not like I do much with TV, mostly It's to maintain mom's PC. She has problems getting the telephone on and off of loudspeaker so the computer can be a bit of a challenge for the luddite in her.

I only ever use teamveiwer for my own personal use. and this website just keeps redirecting me in circles not letting me send a ticket and just taking me here. so im making this post in hopes of getting my account unflagged, because its extemely annoying
I'm a free user for 3-4 years. Recentlly, I started getting the 'suspected commercial use' popup and after a sort use, the system timed me out and went into a 10-15 minite hold.
Have submitted request to unblock followed by a completed and signed 'Declaration of Private Use" on 9/10/19 to which there is no response.from Teamviewer or the Community.
My use is personal to remotely access my main desktop and occassionally to assist family members and a few friend.
What can I do as it seems I am being ignored and maybe this is Teamviewer's way of pushiing away 'free users'>
After years of using teamviewer to help my elderly parents with PC problems, I started using the QucikSupport app last week to help them with their Android smartphones. Now my account is blocked for "Commercial Use" after a single use of the QuickSupport app.
Just be warned, people. You use the QuickSupport app, you lose your free license.
Everyone should file an FTC complaint here: https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/GettingStarted#crnt
TeamViewer is claiming to be offering a free personal license, but based on the volume of comments here, they are no longer actually doing so. They are not responding to requests to fix the problem, and just leaving everyone high or dry.
File a complaint with the FTC - I did, and will continue working to resolve this issue.
Your form does NOT work. I have been trying to resolve this issue with Tech Support for MONTHs now (and yes, I filled out the form, emailed it, and got confirmation the account was reset (BUT over a month after that email, the account continues to be frozen with the same commercial use suspected. Useless support. This product is CLEARLY not free.
I ONLY use it to access my home machines within my internal home network.
Never for business use and only for helping my daughter once every couple of months (or at least I used to until a few months ago. Countless emails to TeamView and calls were a wasted effort. Never have they replied except once several weeks ago saying the account was reset when in fact it still has not been done.
It's a joke. I love that it tells you 5 minutes and the connection is terminated in 30 seconds or less. I barely have time to connect before it kicks me out. I am literally just trying to install a competitor product so I can access my home computer away from home; I'll need to do it over about 20 sessions distributed every 15 minutes or whatever the lockout period is.
I am trying to EDIT a prior post to keep the information up to date. The EDIT command no longer shows up. How can I EDIT this post?
Thank you.
Same problem.
Both side are using the latest version.
Nothing Sloved!
Okay, so I used the form to request a review of my account over a week ago, and have gotten *ZERO* replies.
Here's the situation:
I have an IBM x3550 m3 server at home, it has Dual Xeons, and approximately 10tb of attached storage. It runs Windows Server 2012 R2. (Apparently the fact that I prefer to run a SERVER OS on SERVER hardware is the issue, here? **bleep** nonsense is this?)
I use this machine as a media storage server, a PLEX server for the TVs in my house, and for myself and my partner when we're traveling, and as a Minecraft server for my friends and I to play on together.
NONE of this is for commercial/monetary use. NONE of it.
I need to log into the server to update PLEX and apply an update to the Minecraft server, but you guys keep kicking me off after 2 minutes, and won't allow me to reconnect for 11 (who picked that number?) minutes.
Can this *PLEASE* Be fixed?
It seems that a lot of people are reporting this issue in the last week. is there a problem with teamviewer that is causing this?
Got a similar situation myself. I got a home server for personal game hosting with friends and family. No income at all comes in from this server. Not even donations. Flagged awhile ago and have yet to get a response from the review request. Honestly the lack of contact and the instantenous punishment for using their product for personal use is driving me to use literally anything else.
I get a message that commercial use detected when I use it on my own personal computer, but not my wife's. It seems to think it is used in commercial environments. Wont let me use it more than 5 minutes, and wont let me reconnect until after a certain time has passed. How do I fix this?
Of course I find https://www.teamviewer.com/en/support/commercial-use-suspected/ after i submitted this. This should be more evident somewhere and not had to jump through so many hoops to get stuff settled.
For the past several months, I have been using teamviewer without a problem to help my son and my grandchildre with school and family issues. A few days ago, I began getting messages that I will be blocked because of commercial use. Since I began using Teamviewer nothing has changed in the nature of my use of teamveiwer. 3 days ago, I did a Teanviewer reset. Yet, the commenrcial use message persists. I am retired and have no commercial interests.
I have the exact same issue. I tried contacting them, but they never got back to me.
Same boat here. I do use my corporate PC to access my home PC. For any work related items I use my work services like **Third Party Product** or **Third Party Product**. I can see where they might be confused, but in this case it is totally legitimate personal use.
I am a retired guy running a non-commercial license to use TeamViewer to run a remote telescope. I was recently kicked off TeamViewer as a suspected commercial user so I appealed and was reinstated. Now I have a month-long trip coming up and I'd like to leave my PC at home and run the telescope using an iPad Pro. Will simply installing and running TV from my iPad kick loose another round of being kicked off of TV again? The first time I was kicked off was for no good reason and now I'm skitish about doing anything that's going to restart another unnecessary hassle. It seems that the trigger for suspending service is extraordinarily sensitive so I've mostly switched to using Chrome Remote Desktop most of the time but that might not work for the iPad.
Thanks for whatever guidance you can provide.
Can I please have my account reset? I have submitted the form.
It may take a few days. I subbmitted the form three days ago and just got my free acount back today.
I got classified as commercial because I used the Quick-Support Android app to help my dad get uber rides on his phone while traveling. I submitted the for and after three days I got my free status back.
I think everyone must understand that TeamViewer is a for-profit company and we do not have a RIGHT to use their software for free for private use. I am actually very impressed and grateful that they do offer it for free for personal use. Very few other software companies that produce professional software do this. I wish Adobe would stop charging private users, professional prices for their software like TeamViewer does.
I suggest that you submit the form and explain your case.
I turned in a Declaration of Private use form today. How long does it take for it to be reviewed?
I use Teamviewer to monitor my son's laptop as he attends online public school. His ID was flagged for commercial use and we are trying to get it set back to a free account.
But I am not!
Today for the first time it happend to me when I was helping my wife. What is the name of the form we need to submit? Please share...
Thanks in advance...
Thansk @Johnhoward28
For some reason the form is not responding when entring teamviewer ID. I am trying to type but it does not accpet any characters and continues to show the "______". Even if I blank out the field it does not work and keeps showing the message that "This is a reqauired field." which I understand.
CORRECTION / UPDATE: Figured out that I have to give numeric TeamViewer ID of the remonte device I was helping with. I have submitted the request and hoping that it will be resolved in next three to four days...
Currently TeamViewer determines commercial vs Non-Commercial usage based solely upon the source and or destination IP Address. I suspect it's a simple check to see who the IP of the Source and Destination is assigned to and if it's not assigned to a residential service (Like Shaw, Telus, Verision or AT&T) it simply considers it as a commercial IP and shoots out the five minute warning or simply drops the connection.
And fair enough. However, Universities and other educational establishments fall afoul of this as they also seems ot be considered "Commercial" for whatever reason. Perhaps someone needs to look at and or update the Algorithm to take into consideration that Students attending a University (Living on Campus) are NOT commercial.
<<Currently TeamViewer determines commercial vs Non-Commercial usage based solely upon the source and or destination IP Address.>>
Well, their algorithm can't be that simple. I have 13 TeamViewer IDs and 12 of them are OK. One gets the commercial warning. They all use the same IP address outbound from my location (and they all go to private home on the other end). Why would only one of my IDs trigger their warning? In fact, it is one of 7 IDs that are used within my home that has a problem. There is no difference among the 7 at home.
In my conversations with the "TeamViewer Sales" guys that's how they informed me it works. They split IP Blocks into two seperate categories, Home and Commercial, which IMHO is a pretty narrow view of things as Internet Cafe's, Libraries, Schools, Colleges and Universities, Hospitals even, all seems to fall under the umbrella of "Commercial".
And with over 37,000 Students at the University I work at, it seems a bit of a stretch to be asking them to fork over $500+/year to be able to use TeamViewer.
The real question here is how and why do they consider such institutions as "Commercial" and block TeamViever usage on campus?
And try as I might there's no real way to open a ticket, or speak with TeamViever 'proper' to address the issue either.
I think the issue here is that we are talking about a free service and expecting paid level support. Customer support is extremely costly to maintain. I am glad there is any kind of support and quite surprised that I was able to get my case handled in as short amount of time as it did (3 days).
Another issue is that, as advanced as we are, technology is not nearly as precise and standardized as it needs to be in order for industry-wide simplification to be a reality. I am sure that TV does not want to wrongly classify a personal user as commercial, but the system to determine the difference between them is just not standardized or simple enough for them to be able to 100% accurate all the time. That is just a reality of a rapidly and ever-evolving techno communication system. Things are just changing too rapidly for any sort of industry-wide standard to get a foothold long enough. And about the time things start to smooth out, a new technology arises to throw the whole industry in havoc again. Just think of 5G for example. It is just the nature of the ravenous beast that is technology. To survive, it must and needs to feed on constant innovation. It's all part of the waste and churn economy of technology.
I believe that TV cares about its free users. But it also knows that TV is an extremely powerful tool that can be made to make good money and that some people are dishonestly claiming to be personal users but are actually making money with it. So, they have to have a system in place to keep honest people honest. Unfortunately, that means occasionally personally users might get caught in their net. So, they have provided a form you can fill out to have your case looked at by a person to determine if you are legitimate personal users. But that human person that is looking at your case manually does not work for free and needs to earn a paycheck. So, the reality is that each time you file that form to have your account loked at, you are cost TV money for a service you are not paying a penny for.
I am just grateful for the service at all, and also grateful they even have a human CS department that handles request from FREE users. I own PAID software that does not even have that level of service.

Hamilton wins Bahrain GP ahead of Raikkonen and Rosberg
Mercedes Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton of Britain celebrates on the podium after winning the Bahrain's F1 Grand Prix at Bahrain International Circuit, south of Manama April 19, 2015. (Reuters)
Lewis Hamilton's bid for a third Formula One title is gathering momentum after another convincing win in Sunday's Bahrain Grand Prix, while his Mercedes teammate Nico Rosberg's status as his main challenger is under threat from a resurgent Ferrari team.
Hamilton won the race from pole position to strengthen his overall lead in the standings with his third win in four races, and 36th of his career. He is already 27 points ahead of Rosberg and 28 clear of Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel – the only driver to beat Hamilton so far.

In latest online casino news; live casino company Evolution adds perfect pairs and 21+3 to live platforms. Evolution Gaming has long been seen as the spearhead of live casinos for over a decade, with the company providing feeds to many of the most prestigious online casinos in the world including William Hill and Paddy Power.
The live casino scene, meanwhile, has been growing at an astonishing rate, with the demand for more live casino services so high that new broadcasting studios are currently in the works. The two new betting options, however, Perfect Pairs and 21+3, are what currently have the internet in a buzz. For those who don't know, Perfect Pairs and 21+3 are betting options for the game of blackjack. They don't change the core game rules in any way, but what they do allow is for an added level of strategy that greatly increases the interactivity of blackjack as a live game. In short; the live feeds of blackjack offered by Evolution Gaming just got a whole lot more interesting. Let's take a closer at the betting options in this brief overview of the Evolution adds perfect pairs and 21+3 to live platform headline.
Perfect Pairs
First in our overview of the Evolution adds perfect pairs and 21+3 to live platform headline, we'll explore the Perfect Pairs bet. This betting option revolves around players placing bets on which two cards will make up a blackjack hand. First, keep in mind that these rules apply to games using a certain number of decks for the game, namely six. Evolution Gaming, of course, only streams six deck games, so this goes without saying.
A Perfect Pair bet may be placed on if the bet maker thinks the hand is going to be mixed colour pair, one red, and one black. It is a straightforward bet and a relatively easy one to achieve, and the payout is likewise a modest 5 to 1. Another option would be to bet on a same colour pair of red, but with the cards being different suits. Or the well paying betting option of 30 to 1, a perfect pair, which is the same colour and the same suit. These betting options will be available on Evolution Gaming live streams now, and may be placed before each hand gets started.
21+3 Betting Option
Next in our overview of the Evolution adds perfect pairs and 21+3 to live platform headline, we'll take a look at the 21+3 online betting USA option. The 21+3 betting option is perhaps a bit more obscure then the Perfect Pairs option, with a lot less to do with the actual game of blackjack. It involves placing a bet on the player's two cards, plus the dealer's single showing card, upon the time of the initial deal being made. If these three cards form a straight, flush, straight flush, or three of a kind, the player wins the bet. Its' as simple as that. This betting option is now also available for Evolution Gaming streamed blackjack, with the bet option given prior to cards being dealt.

Over the weekend, the New York Times reported that President Trump has repeatedly questioned the authenticity of the "Access Hollywood tape" in which he can be heard bragging about groping women and kissing them without consent.
"He suggested to a senator earlier this year that it was not authentic, and repeated that claim to an adviser more recently," the Times reported.
On Monday evening, one of the Times reporters bylined on that piece — Maggie Haberman — went on CNN and said she had just talked to "another person close to him" who said Trump questioned the tape's authenticity yet again.
"He has said, he's not really sure that was him," Haberman said. "What he said to this senator earlier this year — it was in January — was that he was looking into hiring people to ascertain whether it was his voice, that he and his people didn't think it was his voice, and that has tended to be what he has honed in on."
But Access Hollywood isn't having it. During Monday's edition of the show, hosts reminded Trump and the public at large that the recording of Trump bragging to then-Access Hollywood co-anchor Billy Bush that "when you're a star they let you do it. You can do anything… Grab them by the pussy" during an appearance on the show in 2005 is all too real.
"We wanted to clear something up that has been reported across the media landscape," host Natalie Morales said. "Let us make this perfectly clear — the tape is very real. Remember, his excuse at the time was 'locker-room talk.' He said every one of those words."
TRUMP: The "Access Hollywood" tape might be fake
ACCESS HOLLYWOOD: What you talkin' 'bout Willis? pic.twitter.com/EOFtO26czr
— Judd Legum (@JuddLegum) November 28, 2017
Access Hollywood weighed in on the same day that Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders repeatedly dodged questions about whether Trump still acknowledges the authenticity of the tape.
During Monday's news briefing, Sanders refused to directly answer a question about Trump's position, but said, "the president addressed this, ah, this was litigated and certainly answered during the election by the overwhelming support for the president and the fact that he's sitting here in the Oval Office today."
Another reporter circled back on the topic later during the briefing. But Sanders again refused to answer a straightforward question.
"Look, I said that he already addressed it, and that we didn't have any updates to that," Sanders said. "I said what he didn't like and what he found troubling were the accounts that are being reported now."
"But what accounts are being reported now that weren't reported last year?" the reporter followed up.
"The ones that are current that he's questioning," Sanders replied, unhelpfully.
During her appearance on CNN, Haberman pointed out that Sanders' remarks "was not actually an answer to the question."
Trump's flirtation with denying the authenticity of the Access Hollywood tape is remarkable, given that he acknowledged that the tape was real and apologized for his remarks when it was first published by the Washington Post on October 7, 2016.
In a video posted to his social media accounts later that night, Trump said, "Anyone who knows me knows these words don't reflect who I am. I said it, I was wrong and I apologize… I never said that I'm a perfect person, nor pretended to be someone that I'm not."
Here is my statement. pic.twitter.com/WAZiGoQqMQ
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 8, 2016
During a presidential debate two days later, Trump infamously characterized his comments on the tape as "locker room talk."
"I'm not proud of it," Trump said. "I apologize to my family. I apologize to the American people. Certainly I'm not proud of it. But this is locker room talk."
Haberman traced Trump's interest in questioning the authenticity of the tape to the public embarrassment he experienced following the tape's publication.
"I think that episode is one of the very few times I can think of that this president has been truly and identifiably humiliated in a public way, and felt a lot of shame, and he made that clear during the second presidential debate with Hillary Clinton that he found this to be very embarrassing," Haberman said on CNN. "And I think he has tried to wash away that embarrassment however he could."
Both in the aforementioned Times report and on CNN, Haberman connected Trump's renewed interest in the Access Hollywood tape with his support for Roy Moore, the Alabama U.S. Senate candidate who has been accused of child molestation and sexual assault. Even though Moore has been accused of sexual misconduct by numerous women, Trump has publicly indicated he accepts Moore's denial that he did anything untoward, and has indirectly urged voters in Alabama to vote for him.
In the weeks following the publication of the Access Hollywood tape, more than a dozen women came forward to accuse Trump of sexual assault and sexual harassment. Sanders recently indicated that the White House's official position is that all of Trump's accusers are liars.

Sealbys make it to 100 days on the road
THIS week the Sealby family notched up 100 days on the road.
In July they packed up their lives to hit the road for a year to travel around Australia.
"Today marks 100 days on the road travelling Australia," they posted to Facebook.
The family of six with two teenagers have travelled 14577 kilometres in those 100 days.
"We left Brisbane at the beginning of July and we are currently camped on a beach on the Dampier Peninsula."
That's about 175 kilometres north of Broome in Western Australia.
So far the family has spent $6055 on fuel, about $60.55 a day.
They've paid $3237 for food, an average of $32.37 a day.
Accommodation has cost $2615, about $26.15 a day and they've splurged $850 on alcohol about $8.50 a day.
They've stopped at 16 caravan parks, 11 free camps, four you camps and six low cost camps.
So far they've travelled through three states, from Queensland, into the Northern Territory and to Western Australia.
They all have their favourite spots, for dad Corey its El Questro, Uluru and Lawn Hill.
Mum Ally's top pics were Kings Canyon and El Questro.
Mackayla, 15, liked Darwin and Townsville, Chloe, 13, also enjoyed Darwin and the Burdekin Cane Farm.
Cody, 10, said the Burdekin Cane Farm and El Questro was his favourite spots and Ava, 8, loved Broome and Darwin.
"Useless info - we've spotted only 17 Kombi's on the road," the family posted.
While Queensland has been pelted with rain, while they've been on the road the Sealby's have had zero rain days.
"With the six of us and limited space in our home on wheels not every day is harmonious," they posted.
"We are still learning about each other every day and adapting to our current travelling situation. It's just like normal home life but in some wonderful locations.
"We have met some amazing characters, families and fellow travellers on the road.
"We travelled the entire Northern Territory with a legendary family we met at the Burdekin Cane Farm.
"It's these friendships created on the road and the memories being made that make all the sacrifices well worth it."
