We're kicking off this month's Contributor's week by interviewing my friend Kerry Dexter. She's your friend, too, if you read A Traveler's Library Great American Road Trip last year, because she provided the musical accompaniment for each and every place we visited. I enjoyed that partnership with Kerry so much and also am always delighted by her thoughtful posts at Music Road. Even before we partnered on the road trip, I had picked her brain about music while traveling, so it seemed only natural to ask her to use her music travel expertise and contribute Music Travel Monday to A Traveler's Library. Last month she took us to Nova Scotia for the Celtic Colours Music Festival at Cape Breton Island.
Kerry Dexter: Are we not all born travelers? As I was growing up, there were people in my family and in my neighborhood from other parts of the world I always knew there was a wide world, and that it was made up of real people with real lives.
I could talk about hours and days and years immersed in the music in various ways, about academic study in history and visual arts, about time spent in Ireland and Scotland. The truest and best way to answer, though, is through Irish American musician Cathie Ryan's words: "In my tribe, music is blood memory."
ATL: You mention poetry as being part of your travel kit. Who are some of your favorite poets? What poets would you recommend for travelers to read?
KD: Robert Burns wrote widely on all sorts of subjects with command of language and insight that always offers something new for travelers and armchair readers. Two of my favorites are Westin Winds, which is a reflection on nature, and a gently funny one about marriage, The Plooman. I'd also recommend the Bible. Whether it represents any part of your faith or not the language will get you seeing the world in new ways. King James version for me, but this idea works in many translations. Though it is not strictly speaking a book of poetry, I'd also recommend The Fireside Book of Folksong, for the same reason.
Works by early Christian Irish poets, and also the ancient Irish cycles of myth, which mix poetry and prose are eye openers for the traveler, too, whether or not you're going to Ireland. Shakespeare. Walt Whitman. Robert Frost. Coming up to more recent times, Wendell Berry, whose work is based in American landscape. Carrie Newcomer is better known as a musician, but she is a very fine poet as well.
ATL: Anyone reading Music Road can see that Ireland and Scotland are your favorite destinations, but in your bio on the Contributor's page, you mention that you'd like to go to Moscow, Salzburg and Ann Arbor Michigan. A wide range of places. Why does each appeal?
KD: Your question was about places I have not yet been, after all.
Moscow: do you remember that scene at the end the movie Dr. Zhivago where Lara disappears in to the streets of Moscow? Moscow — all of Russia, really — has always struck me as enigmatic and very far away. There's the sound of the balalaika, too.
Ann Arbor has, I'm told, a great food scene, and I know it has a top folk music venue, The Ark. There's the university as well. I've a number of friends in the midwest and we don't get to see each other often enough. Ann Arbor would be a good crossroads for us all to gather together and explore all that.
Salzburg: the music of course, both Mozart and the traditional music of that region of Austria. I also have to put some of my interest in Salzburg at the doorsteps of Julie Andrews and Samantha Brown. Julie, because how could you watch the opening sequence of Sound of Music and not want to explore those mountains? Samantha because on an episode of Passport to Europe she went to Salzburg in the middle of winter. It looks wonderful and intriguing then too.
ATL: How can travelers get the most out of the music of a place they are visiting?
KD: Listen — to the music, and to the speech of the people you meet, the sound ofwind and water, to sounds of street and countryside, the stories people tell. All these are part of the sound of place and people as much as is the music. As I am also a photographer, I'd add that you can often hear the music of a place through what you see.
Be aware that every country and every culture has more than one sort of music. And that every person hears music differently.
Allow time for what you hear to sink in.
What lovely ideas to take with us as we travel. And a good reminder–"allow time for what you hear to sink in"–that could apply to words as well as music, I think. Thanks so much Kerry for your thoughtful replies. And please note, Kerry Dexter owns the copyright to all photos here. Please do not reuse without express permission.
My most special musical moment when traveling came when I went to the New Zealand Biennial Arts Festival in Wellington. We attended a Maori sing at their old wooden-floored town hall, and the audience was nearly all Maori who chanted and stomped along. Then we went to a jazz concert and I found myself filled with pride that this native American music was so popular so far away from our shores. What special musical experiences have you had while traveling?

Below you will find my top prospects at every position for the 2017 NFL draft. The number of players below far surpasses the total number of players who will be drafted; there are only 253 picks, but I have more than 750 prospects ranked.
What I have done, however, is list every player I can see as either being drafted or making a roster or practice squad. It's important to remember that only a sliver of players on NFL rosters were drafted, and undrafted players take up a significant chunk of 53-man squads.
Reminder: Not all prospects will end up at the positions in which they are listed here. Some defensive ends will end up listed at outside linebacker, some tackles will become guards, and so on. With that in mind, check out my full rankings below.
Note: Ohio State cornerback Gareon Conley has been accused by a woman of raping her in a Cleveland hotel earlier this month. He has not been arrested nor have charges been filed against him as Cleveland police investigate the allegations. He called the claim "completely false" in a statement sent to ESPN. But because of the uncertainty around Conley's status, I have moved him from down in my Big Board and position rankings. I'm not sure a team will draft him if there is no clarity regarding the allegation.

1 Global Journal of Management and Business Studies. ISSN Volume 3, Number 8 (2013), pp Research India Publications Undersatnding Development and Current Issues Related to Internet Marketing Communication with Respect to Local Business in India Vineeta Singh 1 and Atish Ranjan Srivastava 2 1 Lucknow University 2 Assistant Manager, Dena Bank Pune, MAHARASHTRA. Abstract India is among the top three fastest growing Internet markets in the world after China and the United States. With increase in demand for information, access to knowledge, data acquisition and transaction reaching out on business levels, Websites and commercial portals help and equip traditional means and techniques of media, (print, radio, cinema, television, exhibitions & events etc.) in marketing of products and services. E-Marketing in India has seen unprecedented growth in recent years as an efficient distribution channel to reach out to the consumers, offering a unique value generating proposition for all stakeholders. With focus shifting from computers to other devices like tablets, I Pads and smart phones it becomes important to understand the current status and development of Indian online marketing communications for local businesses. This research paper introduces two primary aspects: media types and subject placement. It also continues to explain major issues in internet marketing and how an effective internet marketing strategy led to a local business success. A finding of the research papers also brings out how success of business is related to online visibility of the company. Data was collected from Internet users among students, business owners, retailers and advertisers in India. A purposive sample was recruited which is considered a representative of the population. The large number of internet population of this country also gives this research a greater generalizability and acceptance.
2 912 Vineeta Singh et al Keywords: Online Marketing, Advertising, Website, SEO, Google search, Local small business. 1. Introduction Internet increasingly has integrated into people's everyday life. The amount of time that Indian Internet users devote to surfing the Net continues to increase. The Internet has become a key platform for communication, information, and entertainment in Indian peoples of all ages, incomes, education levels, and occupations, such that it represents an ordinary, typical tool of everyday life. Among the Bric nations, India has been the fastest growing market adding over 18 million Internet users and growing at an annual rate of 41 per cent. Hence Indian Marketers need an effective strategy to satisfy shoppers and compete in today s competitive market. A complete 360-degree view of every customer is needed to deliver personalized service, build customer loyalty and increase revenue. One needs to track and segment customers to deliver personalized marketing at physical points of sale or over a desktop, Smartphone, tablet or call centres. Examples of web marketing include contextual ads on search engine results pages, banner ads, blogs, rich media ads, social network advertising, online classified advertising etc. 2. Literature Review According to a report jointly published by the Internet and Mobile Association of India and IMRB International, the online advertising market is expected to reach Rs 2,938 crore by March 2014 in the country. The online advertising market, comprising search, display, mobile, social media, and video advertising, has grown by 29 per cent year-on-year to Rs 2,260 crore by March, The online advertising market on an average has expected to grow by 40 per cent annually in four years to Search and display advertising forms a large portion of the overall pie in Their percentage share has, however, declined somewhat in , owing to the rise in the mobile, social media and video advertising Spends on mobile advertising have doubled from Rs 115 crore in to Rs 230 crore in , primary reasons being the proliferation of mobile phones in India. Advertisements on mobile phones and tablets grew from a 7 per cent share in FY to 10 per cent of the Indian online ad market in FY , totalling to spend of around Rs 230 crore. Social media, and video advertising constitute 13 per cent (Rs 300 crore), 3 per cent (Rs 68 crore) and 7 per cent (Rs 150 crore) of the online advertising market, respectively. 2.1 Shift from Computers to Smart Phones, I Pads Internet marketers are aware that the focus is shifting from computers to other devices like tablets, I Pads and smart phones. No other device has managed to capture the
3 Undersatnding Development and Current Issues Related to Internet 913 consumer s imagination and interest as the mobile phone has. It has managed to stay ahead in terms of technology as well as utility. They have become the new shopping tools. Smart phones are coming with apps to help the consumers have a better shopping experience like book my show, make my trip etc. 2.3 New Trends for Online Marketers 1. Mobile Friendly Web Design: Web site are designed that will respond to different sized browsers on mobile devices such as smart phones or tablets, and still look great on desktops. 2. Easy Navigation and slides shows: One can reach any page of the site from any other page, thus making navigation easier. Slides shows too give the option of awesome transition effects between the slides to have a good look of the product or services. 3. Rotating Testimonials, Forums and Blogs: Rotating Testimonials are used to pull customers by providing views of satisfied customers. Marketers create a forum where clients or web visitors can ask questions, get tech support, or post comments. 4. Pay per Click Advertising: One of the fastest methods of online marketing today is pay-per-click advertising, utilizing Google Ad Words, Microsoft Ad Centre, and Face book. 5. SEO: SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization. The purpose of SEO is to get web site to rank well for certain specific keywords on search engines, so as to get more traffic to the site from those search engines. 6. Google Maps/Places: Google has changed the search landscape with the introduction of Google Maps/Places. When someone enters a search that Google determines is local in nature, it puts up a map in the right hand column showing businesses nearby. 7. Social Media Marketing: Social media accounts for business are set up on the web sites like Face book, Face book fan page, Twitter, LinkedIn etc. and in addition few websites also allows hooking up of all other social media accounts from one place. 8. Video Production: It explains what the business does and show their products or services to sell them. These are usually 2-5 minute videos, placed in strategic places on the company s web site and uploaded to online video sharing sites eg. You Tube. 9. Marketing: The biggest area where marketing is effective today is sending to own in-house lists, i.e. lists of customers and prospects that have been build up over time. 2.4 Strategy for Successful Internet Marketing Define business objectives. Provide information, gather leads, receive phone calls and sell products Target the right customers. What and why do they need, why where, when and how will they be access your content?
4 914 Vineeta Singh et al Decide on technical resources and platforms. What device or devices will your target customers use to access your information desktop, tablet, phone or all three? Who will create and maintain your site? Determine your website content. What content do you have, what needs developing, and where are you going to use and reuse it? Content must meet the needs of your customers and prospects, and help achieve your business objectives. Develop a plan. How will you disseminate your content so you can attract traffic? Determine how you will measure success. How will you measure success? Use analytics to measure basics, goals, conversions and eventually segmentation, behaviors, and attribution. Claim and update your profiles on the local search directories, engines, and aggregators. 2.5 Internet Marketing in India Challenges 1. Governance, laws and regulations: When it comes to online businesses, there are stricter money transaction rules. Law enforcement and protection against cybercrime requires review. Widespread corruption is another big issue. Many people don t want to set up online shops to escape taxes and do things unaccounted. 2. Cultural issues: Most people believe that shopping online can prevent them from getting the best deals. This gives them excellent F2F opportunity to do maximum negotiation and receive other freebies. 3. Online shopping worries: A lot of computer literate people are still hesitant to consume online shopping facilities that are available out there in India for the following reasons. 1. Fear factor: A lot of people still do not believe things that are not tangible. 2. Unreliable delivery mechanisms: Postal service or the most expensive courier companies may not be able to guarantee prompt delivery 4. Lack of technical infrastructure: The backbone of any reliable online service or sales is a strong supply chain. In volume business, this has to be at its best and this is exactly what many online services in India lack. 5. Marketing philosophies & channels: Television, hoardings and cinema ads are still way ahead of the Internet when it comes to preferred marketing channels. This also results in poor quality affiliate networks and online ad services. Moreover, there are a lot of inconsistencies and dishonesty prevailing with the networks as well. This has further decelerated the affiliate marketing penetration in India. 3. Research Methodology The findings of the research paper have been arrived at by conducting primary and secondary research. The paper carries information for the Indian financial year Primary Research has been done with Internet Users, Industry and various local
5 Undersatnding Development and Current Issues Related to Internet 915 business owners and retailers. Structured Face to Face interviews were conducted with them. In Depth interviews were conducted with industry experts of the Internet Advertising Industry in India. Respondents for the depth Interviews also include local business owners, retailers and Advertisers. Secondary Research was done to understand the structure and dynamics of Indian Internet Advertising industry. Information from various published resources has been used. 4. Local Business Success Problem 1: Online visibility of a local offline business A local offline business had very limited online visibility in their local market when consumers did search for them online. Problem 2: Sales of the local offline business This caused their local competitors to take away market share and become dominant in their market. Problem 3: Number of people who searched the local offline business on Internet
6 916 Vineeta Singh et al The same local offline business was not listed in Google s local business centres & Google Maps. Many local consumers did search for local business phone numbers, hours of operation and address on Internet. Problem 4: Online Visibility and branding of a local offline business The same local offline business had poor online visibility & branding when consumers did search for the business s name on Internet. Many consumers do search on the search engines for specific company names in order to get information. 5. Finding and Conclusions Company s visibility online led to huge gains in visitors to their new locally optimized website & local Google business listing. 5.1 Website Statistics after Adopting Successful Internet Marketing Strategy Increase in visitors: 150% increase Overall increase in search traffic: 300% increase Increase in visitors finding website by searching for the company by its name: 250% increase. Increase in visitors to website by searches this company s services: 190% increase References [1] IMRB International & IAMAI (2013), Digital Advertising in India [2] IMRB International & IAMAI (2012), Digital Advertising in India [3] Octane Marketing Pvt.

Aspirin More Successful Than DAPT For Reducing Events After TAVR
Aspirin alone was more successful in reducing the occurrence of major adverse events following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) compared with aspirin with clopidogrel, according to research published May 17 in JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions and presented at EuroPCR in Paris.
Josep Rodes-Cabau, MD, et al., examined 222 TAVR candidates, with half randomized to receive dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) and half to aspirin alone. There were no differences between groups in baseline and procedural characteristics.
At three-month follow-up, the incidence of death, myocardial infarction (MI), ischemic stroke/transient ischemic attack or major bleeding events tended to be higher in the DAPT group (15.3 vs. 7.2 percent, p=0.065). Aspirin alone decreased the risk of major or life-threatening bleeding post-TAVR while not increasing the risk of MI or stroke. All MI and stroke events occurred during the first 30 days following TAVR. All bleeding events also occurred within the first 30 days after TAVR, and most (56 percent) were related to vascular or access site complications. Clopidogrel was stopped temporarily or definitely in 21 DAPT patients because of adverse events.
As this was a small, open-label trial, the authors caution that these results should be interpreted as hypothesis-generating and should serve to design a definitive trial for determining the optimal antithrombotic treatment in TAVR candidates.
In a related editorial comment, Davide Capodanno, MD, and Dominick J. Angiolillo, MD, PhD, FACC, add that "Because life-threatening or disabling bleeding remains a substantial cause of morbidity in elderly patients who are currently offered TAVR, further investigations of strategies that positively affect the efficacy-safety trade-off of antithrombotic therapy are needed in this fragile population."
Clinical Topics: Cardiac Surgery, Invasive Cardiovascular Angiography and Intervention, Interventions and Imaging, Angiography, Nuclear Imaging
Keywords: Angiography, Aspirin, Follow-Up Studies, Hemorrhage, Incidence, Ischemic Attack, Transient, Myocardial Infarction, Stroke, Ticlopidine, Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement, Deoxyadenosines

"Our spa experience was particularly ... stressful, which frankly defeats the purpose of going to a spa. Staffers were disorganized (didn't reserve the treatment properly, charged more money than I was quoted, mixed me up with another passenger, then gave me a hard product sell afterward). Ultimately the spa manager did refund the disputed amount but she was snarky and unpleasant. I was so disgusted I decided to skip other treatments I'd planned to book."
"I have been subjected to the hard sell in some form or another every time I have used the Spa services on any cruise ship. now I avoid them like the plague. They are not interested in making you look better. it's all about the sales figures. They prey on people who have a hard time saying "No Thank You" and I have never left the Spa without a really bad taste in my mouth. They take what should be a pleasant experience and destroy it."
"On boarding day, I got caught up in the excitement and booked two spa treatments on two different days. The pedicure I got during the first one was wonderful and fairly priced, so no complaints there. However, the therapist was sooooooo aggressive with the hard-sell on the products that it really took away from the whole relaxation vibe of being in a spa. I ended up cancelling the second treatment scheduled two days later because I just didn't want to be bothered having to find 20 different ways to say "no thank you" again."
"On a Carnival Cruise recently my wife WON a 1/2 price facial at one of the talks on the ship. She booked it and was given a nice facial, then came the hard sell on skin care products she MUST have for her skin. She was polite and told them no thanks, when she was pressed more she tried to tell them she would have to check with her husband first before commiting to this purchase (about $200 more!) . The spa girl told her that is NOT fair to her to be restricted by me like that , it was my wifes vacation also. That made my wife mad and she left quickly. She did not want $200 worth of over priced lotions to start with."Since I had committed not to spend hours in line this year, I thought I may hit up the spa for the specials they had advertised in the daily newsletter. But getting a hard sell doesn't sound like a fun way to spend a few hours, so I'll skip it. Anyone have similar (or dissimilar) cruise spa experience to share?

What do we mean by intelligent security? Today's threat landscape has never been more sophisticated, so we must assume a great deal of intelligence in our adversaries. Successful defence must be equally intelligent and that means taking a threat-led approach.
Intelligent security requires an agile and focused defensive posture, designed to optimise both human and technical resources. Our adversaries use sophisticated techniques, so our defences need to be equally sophisticated – addressing the most likely lines of attack with a properly tested and relevant response.
Well-informed threat and risk analysis, professionally conducted with the right intelligence, can be used to design simulated attacks, known as Red Team exercises. These exercises test our protective controls and our incident response capability, as well as providing exciting and relevant storylines for awareness education, helping to strengthen our human firewall.
This is a relatively new discipline for many organisations, who remain uncertain how to implement it in a practical and pragmatic way. Fortunately there is a simple process for the identification, analysis and prioritisation of risks that can be implemented without the need for significant investment in time or money.
Workshops focused on the following three key questions, informed by professional threat intelligence, can kick-start the process quickly and relatively painlessly:
- Who may wish to steal or damage your assets, why and how?
- What are your key information assets, where are they and who owns them?
- Who has legitimate access to these assets and how are they protected?
A roundtable on these topics, led by an experienced information security practitioner, can deliver some highly relevant scenarios for a red team exercise.
Beginning by identifying threat sources and threat agents – the adversaries who want to steal or damage your assets – can encourage productive and educational debate. Threats may include organised crime, competitors, disgruntled employees, activists, foreign governments and many others, as well as non-hostile threats such as untrained or reckless employees and business partners.
The discussion around threats quickly broadens into an exchange of views on known vulnerabilities, and which information is sensitive and valuable to the business, thus also addressing the other two questions. Within a few hours, you will have a flipchart full of potential scenarios, and the individuals in the room will begin to think quite differently about threats and their potential impact.
The likelihood of a particular scenario taking place is determined in debate between security professionals and business managers, taking into account threat intelligence on the one hand and sector-specific experience on the other. The anticipated motivation of each threat agent, their respective skills and typical methods inform the discussion and allow the group to assign a risk level to each.
For example, a legal practice involved in a high-profile case may consider organised criminals to be a threat, perhaps attempting to coerce or deceive an employee into sharing information. The motivation for this type of attack would be substantial and the necessary skills well honed, making this a high-risk threat for the law firm. The criminals' objective would be to steal sensitive information pertaining to the case, and the most significant vulnerability may be revealed as untrained or unaware staff. In response, the business may decide to conduct a review of where case information is stored, the access controls in place and who has permission to access the data. An audit of the access controls would be conducted to ensure that they are working as expected, and staff would be reminded of their responsibilities to safeguard the information against a data breach. Finally a red team exercise would be commissioned to simulate this threat scenario, testing both the technical controls and human factors for vulnerabilities at each step of the attack. This process is then repeated for each threat premise, allowing resources to be applied to the highest risks that have the most significant potential impact to the business.
Thus a red team exercise reinvents the traditional penetration test as a threat-led, intelligent attack simulation. Rather than examining individual components of the security model in isolation, red teaming replicates every stage of a criminal attack under controlled conditions.
This threat-based approach highlights vulnerabilities that would otherwise be missed or perhaps not even considered during a more traditional 'due diligence' exercise. Red teaming should not be seen as an alternative to traditional testing, but as a very valuable additional activity.
There is also the opportunity to use the results of a red team exercise as the basis for highly effective awareness training. Because the audience follows a story, and because that story is genuinely relevant to their organisation, it becomes possible to effectively address that perennially challenging security control – the human firewall. Security awareness at all levels can be increased significantly and staff members become security evangelists in their own right. Further red team exercises can build on this exciting precedent and provide more engaging stories to continue the education of everyone in the organisation.

Right Helps Obama With Left
WASHINGTON -- President Barack Obama has disappointed liberals in his party on a range of issues, from union organizing to indefinite detention of terrorism suspects to gays in the military.
But relations between the president and his liberal base appear to have strengthened in recent weeks. The reason: As attacks on Mr. Obama grow stronger from the right, his left flank has circled the wagons round the White House.

Rajkot: India's middle order batsman Cheteshwar Pujara has been appointed as the 'brand ambassador' of the Gujarat state Election Commission.
The district authorities had sent a suggestion to the Election Commission of India (ECI) in this regard, Rajkot district collector Rajendra Kumar yesterday said here, adding that the ECI accepted the suggestion.
"Pujara is popular among cricket lovers and the youth of the state. He would appeal the people to caste their votes in coming general election," Kumar said.
"I am happy to be associated with the noble cause of creating awareness among the people about the importance of voting," said Pujara, who arrived here this morning from New Zealand.
"Awareness about voting rights is needed in India and I will try to reach maximum number of people and appeal them to caste their votes in the coming elections," he said.
The young cricketer himself has yet to exercise his franchise.
"Due to busy cricketing schedule I could not spare time to vote in the past, but in future I will try and caste my vote," he said, answering a question.

A Comparison between Oral Reading Miscues of Readers with Normal Intelligence and Educable Mentally Retarded Readers. Technical Report No. 469.
Smith, Mabel G.
The oral reading miscue patterns of 26 normal students in grades one, two, and three were compared with those of 26 educable mentally retarded students from primary, intermediate, and junior high school classes. Intelligence quotients ranged from 94 to 137 for the normal students and from 50 to 80 for the retarded students. During the testing sessions, pupils read three selections they had never seen before; their oral reading was tape recorded, and miscues were later recorded and analyzed according to reading miscue inventory criteria. Among the results were that mentally retarded and normal readers displayed similar abilities to utilize sound and graphic cues in decoding unknown words, and that the two groups substituted single words of the same grammatical function to a similar degree. Normal readers, however, appeared to correct more miscues than did retarded readers and to be more proficient in producing grammatically and semantically acceptable structures when reading, while mentally retarded readers showed a tendency to make a greater number of meaning-changing miscues. Normal readers showed a greater tendency to use meaning-based and grammar-based cues and to correct miscues efficiently, while retarded readers tended to use grammar-based cues while often ignoring meaning factors.

Dear new puppy owner on my floor,
I'm so happy you decided to adopt or buy a dog. Good for you! However, when it whines and barks (more like chirping. Charking, perhaps.) it's really fucking annoying to listen to. Trust me. I should know. Because I'm listening to it right now. Do you have a megaphone attached to its collar by any chance? Because, seriously, these walls and doors are pretty thick and I can still hear the charking. And that makes me hate your dog. And I don't even know it. But I hate it. And I hope it gets loose from you when you eventually walk it, and a Chinese food restaurant finds him and cooks him for special #5 for lunch.
Cat lover,

Renzo Mongiardino. Edited by Fiorenzo Cattaneo. New York. Rizzoli. 1993. First edition. Cloth-bound hardback, dust jacket. 208 pages. Illustrated throughout in colour and b&w. 305 x 235mm (12 x 9¼"). 1.4kg. 0847815536. English. Near fine; light shelf wear to the dust jacket; a good copy with no marks or inscriptions.The scarce first monograph on the Italian architect and interior decorator Renzo Mongiardino (1916-1998). Written towards the end of Mongiardino's life the book provides an overview of his career and his most celebrated interiors, with commentary and advice provided by the designer himself.'On the international design scene, Milan-based architect Renzo Mongiardino is renowned as the consummate creator of spectacular, atmospheric spaces. His dramatic, theatrical approach to design has produced elegant period interiors that have influenced many other designers. This handsome monograph, the first complete presentation of Mongiardino's work, explores his philosophy of space, design, and life itself. Extraordinary colour photographs illustrate the brilliant arrangements of objects, art, and antiques and the rich array of textiles and painted effects - faux wood, marble, and other materials; extravagant full-scale trompe l'oeils - that epitomise his style... ... Practical considerations of design are discussed in Mongiardino's own words. He shares insights into particular spaces - small or large, study or grand gallery - and traces the solutions he originated to create them. Through early sketches, impressionistic drawings and watercolours, and detailed photographs, he unfolds the story of each space.' (from the blurb)

I'm back playing tenks after a 6 month hiatus and I'm really enjoying the game again. I spotted this thread and decided i was going to drop all my grinds and concentrate on getting the 430. I had to start at the A43 and I'm now up to the 416( holy shit what a tank! I almost rage sold it at the start but instead rage free xp'd the top gun, that was a fantastic decision. A big thank you to the chap in the closed 416 thread who said "it's the best T8 TD" as that was the key for me in figuring it out) . Anywho, so I'll have the 430 II unlocked this evening as I only need another 20k xp. So here's my problem/ question. I'm not sure when the patch will drop in Feb. I only get to play for a few hours per evening so I'm not sure if I'm going to get through the 300k xp grind required to get the 430 in time once this 48% Christmas bonus finishes and we're back to normal levels of xp accumulation. I'm thinking maybe I should free xp a lump of the 430 II grind. But to do this I'll need to build up free xp and credits on prems. My plan was to power grind my good credit earning prems in parallel with the 430 II to accumulate the xp and the credits I'll need for the 430 as I'll need to keep the 430 II in my garage. Does this sound like the correct strategy to get the 2 tier 10's for the price of 1? So what I have on the lines. IS7 in garage T10 in garage with 100k that I don't want to convert as I want the new T10 heavy too. 60k free xp already 7k gold I have hundreds of boosters ( I actually never noticed them before so they were just sitting in there unused) Loads of T8 prems. So does this sound like a good strategy to get to the 430 before the patch drops? Does anyone have an alternative one maybe? The crucial thing forcing me to do it this way is I don't get a lot of time to play each day and I'm not very good. Sorry for the text wall. Not only am I shit at tanks I'm also shit at posting so sorry if none of this makes sense :-( 1 Archaic_One reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Women in Industrial Research (WIR)
So far, women and science activities have concentrated mainly on the public research sector. In order to develop effective strategies to ensure the full participation of women in industrial research the European Commission's Research DG established a High Level STRATA-ETAN Expert Group: Women in Research in the Private Sector, on January 22, 2002. (This is action n° 26 of the new Science and Society Action Plan.)
Industrial research plays a leading role for research, innovation and development: more than two third of all research in Europe is undertaken by industry. Using the full potential of women is a key to the realisation of the European Research Area (ERA).
In most European countries, the proportion of graduate women below 30 years of age has overtaken that of men. But in European research, women are still underrepresented, especially in senior positions. In the public sector - universities and research institutes - the proportion of female researchers varies between about one quarter and one third; at the top level of full professorships it is only one in nine. In industrial research the situation seems to be even worse.
In order to meet the challenges - European Research must adapt changes and fully use the high potential of women and men - the Research DG has established a high-level expert group. This will promote scientific excellence and competitiveness.
The group will provide strategic guidance to the Commission, the Member States, and industry by outlining options for supporting measures, new co-operation schemes, and their connection to existing network structures and on-going activities, and by discussing the impacts and benefits of the different options suggested with respect to the European goals of sustainable development, economic competitiveness, and European identity.
Without making the most of all human potential, Europe's lag in economic and innovative competitiveness, especially compared to the US, can not be reduced. Up to now, however, little research has been done on the participation and role of women in European industrial research.
During the last decade, some industries have implemented specific strategies to raise their attractiveness for high potential female researchers and engineers. Their success stories for changing working culture, recruitment and career development, and addressing gender diversity as a business issue, can contribute to the modernisation of the research culture in the European Research Area.

Sunday night marks the 70th anniversary of the German bombing raid which obliterated Coventry. Between 7pm and 5am the next morning, Luftwaffe aircraft laid to waste 80% of the city, including the medieval cathedral; 568 civilians were killed and 863 seriously injured.
The future England cricketer Tom Cartwright was five years old and (according to his standout 2007 biography by Stephen Chalke) all he could recall in adulthood of that incandescent night was his van-driver father calming the family's terrors as they cowered from the hours of fulminating blasts all around them with the reassuring: "Don't worry, you never hear the one that hits you." On emerging from their makeshift shelter Tom's mother exclaimed: "Look, dawn's breaking" – at which Dad corrects her: "That's not the dawn, it's the whole of Coventry on fire."
Coventry's demolition had come nine weeks after Germany's cataclysmic opening salvo on London on the night of 7 September when 350 bombers swept up the Thames in successive deadly waves to drop 335 tonnes of explosives which, in 10 hours, killed 436 people and seriously injured 1,600. It was the start of the 246-day Blitz, which would target all parts of the British Isles until the middle of May 1941 at the cost of more than 43,000 civilian lives.
Earlier this year, the Times printed a graphic entry from the 1940 diary of a young Londoner which had been discovered by his daughter, Vivien Sellers, at the back of a sock-drawer more than three-score years after it had been written: "Saturday 7 September – This afternoon went to see Arsenal v Fulham on Spurs' ground. It's a lovely ground too. Arsenal played a magnificent first half and all five of their goals were snorters. At 4.55pm, 15 minutes from time, the air raid came and the game was called off. Five minutes later I watched a formation of Junker bombers, protected by fighters, attacked by two of our planes. There were at least 50 planes and two came crashing down before they went out of sight. Boy, what a thrill it was."
That 5-0 victory of Arsenal's was the second game of a new season in which all senior competition was redrafted on strictly regional lines. Arsenal and Tottenham had been sharing Spurs' White Hart Lane since the previous winter when Highbury was requisitioned as a first-aid training centre and (in readiness for bombing strikes) HQ for all north London's ARP (air raid precautions). After 7 September, White Hart Lane's East Stand was closed, commandeered as a mortuary for bomb victims. Other English League grounds were put to different uses at various stages of the conflict: Preston's Deepdale and Swindon's County Ground were prisoner-of-war camps, for instance, while Exeter City's St James Park became a training centre for US troops.
Serious bomb damage was suffered by League grounds all across England – from Plymouth's Home Park to Sunderland's Roker, from Southampton's Dell to Sheffield's Bramall Lane. Birmingham's St Andrew's took more than one battering. Both Nottingham clubs took direct hits, for example; so did Ipswich and Norwich's respective Portman and Carrow Roads, and Everton's Goodison Park. London's dockside grounds such as West Ham's Upton Park and Millwall's Den obviously took a regular series of bombardments.
I was only three in February 1941 but my elder sister reminds how Dad woke us in north Gloucestershire and took us up to the attic "to watch Bristol burn" 25 miles away. That was the raid which obliterated Bristol City's main stand at Ashton Gate. By the summer of 1949 I was 11 – and walking, tingling with expectation, to my first cricket Test match: England v New Zealand in Manchester on 23 July. On the way, friends pointed out United's Old Trafford football ground, which had been badly bombed on the night of 11 March 1941 – and now at last United were about to finish all of eight years sharing with City's Maine Road; rebirth and fresh baptism was just a month away (24 August: 3-0 v Bolton Wanderers).
Mind you, those 1940 raids were nothing new. This month marks the 94th anniversary of Hartlepool United's two wooden grandstands on their Victoria ground being burnt to ashes on 27 November 1916 when a first world war Zeppelin airship pilot mis-aimed as he came in over the docks to toss out a handful of primitive firebombs. For the following quarter of a century the Hartlepool board conducted a lengthy correspondence with the German government, demanding £2,500 in compensation. They gave up bothering once new German bombers had returned to Teeside on 8 December 1940 to drop a more explosive cluster on the rebuilt and homely riverside stadium.

Sunday's Silly Sign (Photo)
I decided to start posting a sign a week and Sunday sounds like a good day to do it. It should help me keep my eyes open and I'll have to make sure I shoot a new photo of a sign, somewhere, at least once a week.
There are interesting, funny and even hilarious signs all over Japan and I think you could make a fortune correcting the English on some of them.
But, you never know. Many of them could have been misspelled deliberately. I do things like that, right here on my blog just to let that Spelchek Dude know who's the boss around here, sometimes.
This sign is at the top of a stairway on the Zakimi Castle wall in Yomitan Okinawa, Japan. It lets you know, if you don't pay attention, you could fall all the way back down the stairs, I guess.
Or, it could be a warning to people who might want to lean too far over the wall once they reach the top. They could fall outside the castle walls and the UNESCO folks probably don't want to get involved in a bunch of lawsuits.
Are there silly signs like this at UNESCO Castles anywhere else in the world or only in Japan, I wonder ?

He made this known in a goodwill message at the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) National Convention in Abuja on Saturday.
Aliyu, who spoke on behalf of former PDP governors, said come 2019, the party would ensure that agriculture was given the kind of subsidy required.
"We will ensure that agriculture becomes commercialised and mechanised. Naira has depreciated. Importing any food in Nigeria will be a waste because you will not make any profit.
"Our importers are not importing food and therefore we must understand that it was not a deliberate plan; it was a plan by devaluation."
Aliyu commended the National Caretaker Committee Chairman Ahmed Makarfi for holding forth during the party's trying moments.
"We will live more united, stronger and ready to take over in 2019, PDP governors have done beautifully well and there is no alternative to the PDP," he said.

Logos work by triggering people's memories of previous messages, experiences, and impressions with a company. They leave a greater impact than words alone and serve as the lynch pins that fuse a company's communications into an integrated whole. Logos dramatically increase awareness and visibility in the marketplace, which in turn leads to more sales.
Personal logos have their roots in ancient Greece. Typically, they consisted of one or more initials of a ruler, important person or place. By the thirteenth century, this simple letter form had evolved into trademarks for merchants. Early examples of logo design were personal symbols or marks for individual masons, goldsmiths and paper makers. By the 1700s, the stamp or logo on an item reflected the quality of its maker, and this quality reflected the maker's value. The industrial revolution moved the focus of logos and trademarks from reflecting the individual craftsmen to reflecting companies and products. Today, logos are the faces of businesses and a visual representation of a product or company. They form the identity by which a clientele can easily and definitively identify a company or product.
As a real estate professional, your personal logo helps you accomplish the same goal as the master craftsmen of hundreds of years ago. Your logo reflects your reputation and value as an agent and distinguishes you from other agents. In turn, it triggers your target audience to conduct business with you instead of your competitors.
What Makes a Good Logo?
According to designer Paul Rand, "A logo should embody in the simplest form, the essential character of the product or company being advertised." I absolutely agree. However, most agents forget they are the product being advertised, not the real estate they represent for their client. Knowing this, you can easily understand why your logo should reflect your very personal characteristics and your deeply held personal values and beliefs. Your logo will differentiate you in a very powerful, emotional manner and attract clients who value and respect you as a person.
The worst personal logos do not reflect a real estate agent's character but are instead a reflection of real estate. Logos with houses, sold signs and other trite real estate symbols are ineffective—they miss the point of having a personal logo. However, when done well, an agent's personal logo accomplishes four critical aspects. First, the logo identifies and distinguishes an agent's personal brand. Second, it creates a strong, positive emotional resonance between an agent and his or her clientele. Next, it ties together marketing materials so they work in unison to more effectively build name recognition and brand awareness. Finally, a personal logo creates a professional presence that produces instant credibility in the mind of your prospects.
Five Key Ingredients
Recently, I had the privilege of attending a training session conducted by Hobbs/Herder Advertising Art Director Joe Oesterle. In the session, Joe discussed with his design staff the expertise and finesse of logo design. He emphasized five key ingredients necessary to create an effective logo for real estate agents.
The first key ingredient is immediate impact. A logo must catch the viewer's eye and hold the viewer's attention. Consider the logo of Apple Computers: the graphic apple with a stylized bite taken out of it has immediate product and corporate identification with consumers. The Apple logo clearly illustrates that an effective logo must both grab and demand attention.
The second ingredient is creating a positive emotional response in the target market. Branding is the key that differentiates one agent from the hundreds of other agents from which a prospect can choose. Remember, a good logo accurately portrays the agent's unique personality, values and character. This is exactly why logos with houses and sold signs tend not to work as effectively as personal branding tools. They wrongly evoke images of houses or the real estate industry and neglect the individual agent. To stand out, you must project a more intimate and personal image than the average real estate agent. Your logo needs to project and amplify an emotional resonance to you as an individual.
An effective logo must also have the look and feel of "art." Art is timeless; a logo, to be true to its very nature and purpose, should also be timeless. Creating an effective logo and using it throughout your career is critically important. In addition, a logo that is artistically designed instantly establishes a higher level of credibility and professionalism for you as an agent. It shows that you care about details and serves as a reflection of your business professionalism.
Next, a great logo must be elegantly simple. Logos that attempt to include too much information and try to represent too many aspects of a business or agent are ineffective. Logos should also avoid fashionable styles and typefaces that will quickly become dated. Today, a logo created in color is essential, but remember that the same design must also look professional in black and white. Your logo reflects who you are and what you represent, so it should be presented in a professional manner at all times.
Finally, your logo must be used every time you market yourself as an agent, not just in your ads and flyers. Your personal logo should be on your business card, letterhead, personal brochure, Web site, print ads, TV ads, house flyers, services materials, folders—on virtually everything that represents you. Many of today's top agents place their logos on shirts, hats and blouses and ask their staff members to join them in wearing them. This simple step keeps the identity of an agent foremost in the minds of prospective clients.
A word of caution when using a personal logo: once established, your logo sets a standard that must be reflected in all your marketing materials. A good design firm can assist you in creating a professional logo and offer guidance in using complementary colors and graphic elements so all your marketing materials work together to communicate your brand identity.
Personal Logos and Company Logos
Agents often ask how a personal logo works in conjunction with a company logo. First, in all your marketing materials, be sure to follow the laws in your state. For example, seven states require that the company name be as large or larger then the agent's name. In the other states, agents have to include the company name large enough on marketing materials to be readable. These state laws do not address logos, however. I suggest you include your personal logo prominently in all your materials and include your company name in accordance with your state's regulations. Remember, placing the focus on your personal logo will help prospective clients understand the value of working with you as opposed to other agents.
Finally, agents often ask me if using a personal logo prominently will create conflict with their company. The answer is definitely not. In fact, a company logo/name and a personal logo can successfully complement each other. A company logo is critically important in building a brand identity for the company. It helps owners recruit and retain their target real estate agent base. Think about it this way—if you work for the strongest real estate company in town, your strongest competitors are sitting in the desks around you. Surrounding yourself with the best agents at a highly successful company creates a win-win situation for everyone—most importantly, for you. Companies like these, enlightened to modern practices and thus far ahead of their competition, also know that personal marketing is essential for agents to become the top producers. More and more of these companies are encouraging agents to use personal logos in all their materials because they understand the win-win result created by the combination of personal and company marketing.
