2017 Toyota Highlander First Review
The Highlander is a solidly established family hauler, slotting in at the bigger end of Toyota's growing SUV lineup with seats for seven or eight, lots of small object storage, lots of family-oriented features, lots of safety technology, the only hybrid option in its class, and attractive styling—at least by the utilitarian standards of this two-box vehicle class.
While this Toyota mainstay isn't due for a major makeover until model year 2019—the current generation bowed in 2014—it gets some significant updates for 2017: freshened styling, more safety features, interior updates, and, tops on the list, a new V-6 powertrain.
The 3.5-liter displacement is familiar, but a new intake system, combining direct and port fuel injection, raises V-6 output from 270 horsepower and 248 pound-feet of torque to 295 and 263, respectively. Similarly, the new engine raises combined output of the hybrid model, which uses a milder version of the new V-6 with synchronous AC electric motors front and rear, from 280 to 305 horsepower. Another update for both versions of the V-6 is the addition of stop-start technology.
Front- or all-wheel drive
Standard V-6 Highlanders and hybrid versions send power to either the front or all four wheels via a new 8-speed automatic transmission, replacing the previous 6-speed. The 6-speed lives on in the basic LE trim mated to the familiar 2.7-liter 4-cylinder (185 hp, 184 lb-ft), which is offered only with front-wheel drive.
EPA fuel economy ratings make the revised V-6 option a real win-win, gaining 2 mpg—21 mpg city, 27 highway for front-drive models, one mpg less on the city cycle with all-wheel drive. Tangentially, it's worth noting that the updated V-6 and 8-speed automatic will also propel the 2017 Sienna minivan.
Styling updates are typical of a mid-cycle refresh—revised front and rear fascias, revised lighting, more use of LED lighting, new colors and new wheel designs. The most readily discernible styling distinction between 2016 and 2017 is the Highlander's grille, which is distinctly bigger than the current version, and reminiscent of the so-called spindle grille of Toyota's Lexus luxury division. The fascia trend—a bigger grille is better—extends to most Toyota redesigns and freshening.

Infotainment options
Inside, the Highlander continues to provide owners with plenty of infotainment options advancing through the many trim levels (six for the regular Highlander, four for the Hybrid), as well as plenty of places to stash small stuff. There are two center dash touch screens—6.2 inches in lower trims, 8.0 in the fancier models. There's also a 4.2-inch LCD multi-info display tucked in between the tach and speedometer on all models.
Available features can take the Highlander into the luxury realm, with leather, navigation, and several audio options baked into Toyota's Entune system.
Of even greater interest, given the Highlander's role as a family vehicle, Toyota's Safety Sense system is standard across the entire range. The suite includes pre-collision with pedestrian detection and automatic emergency braking; lane departure warning and steering assist; and adaptive cruise control.
One of the interesting elements of lane departure system is Vehicle Sway Warning, which warns the driver, audibly and with a message on the LCD screen, that he or she may not be giving sufficient attention to operating the vehicle and suggest taking a break.
Quiet Comfort
The Highlander's dynamic strong suits have always been quiet operation and creamy ride quality, two traits that carry forward unchanged into the 2017 model year. The down side of this is leisurely responses in situations where the driver might prefer quicker zigs or zags, accompanied by substantial body motions.
However, this is not uncommon among vehicles in this class—comfort is the priority—and like most of its competitors the Highlander is certainly competent, devoid of unpleasant dynamic surprises.
And of course there's the bonus of increased power from the V-6. More power is always welcome in urban traffic and two-lane highway passing, and it's also an under-appreciated safety asset, giving the driver an extra resource in emergency situations. The 8-speed automatic makes the most of the power increase, and is an exceptionally smooth operator, although it lacks a really tempting manual operating feature. Then again, this is not the sort of vehicle that drivers take out for exercise on a challenging back road.

Tough Segment
Originally introduced in 2001 as a five-passenger SUV, the Highlander led the way in the trend to crossover sport-utilities based on front-drive passenger car architecture. In the decade and half and two generations that have come along since, it's grown considerably, pitting it against some tough competition, notably the Honda Pilot, Mazda CX-9, Dodge Durango, and Ford Explorer, to name just a few.
The updated V-6 and new 8-speed transmission options for 2017—along with a number of interior refinements and styling updates—give the Highlander more traction in its popular and intensely competitive market segment. Expanded trim levels may help as well. Pricing for the 2017 Toyota Highlander ranges from $31,570 for a front-drive 4-cylinder LE model to $47,200 for a Limited Platinum AWD V6. The Hybrid side of family has gotten more affordable thanks to two new entry level value variants, the Highlander Hybrid LE and XLE AWD models that start at $32,210 and $42,240, respectively. The existing Limited and Limited Platinum Hybrid AWD trims also see their stickers sliced with the former now opening at $45,700 and the latter kicking off at $48,820, figures that are 6.5 percent and 5.2 percent below their 2016 counterparts.

text: Hey Mac friends, earlier this year I posted a search for an application to extract audio from a DVD. The best application turned out to be OSEx, an application that works well, but I'm having trouble extracting AC-3 files now. I'm trying to make a Demo DVD for my showroom at work, and I'm extracting certain scenes from certain DVD's. With a bunch of current movies to choose from, so far the only two that have worked is Top Gun and the Matrix. All other AC-3 files import and have proper files sizes, but are not selectable in DVD Studio Pro or APack, which is my primary application to make this demo dvd. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. Bmode.

Discussion in 'Leicester City' started by SJN-Fox, Nov 22, 2016.
I not sure my Sunderland supporting father-in-law, who was at the game with me, would agree
It's a shame that management and team didn't stay together for a couple of more years. I always rated Collymore and O'Neill was probably the one manager who could have got the best out of him.
Can't be that long ago. I remember being in school a few days after and writing all sorts of shit on my GCSE geography teacher's blackboard as he was a mackem.
Been watching the highlights on YouTube. The text commentary is fucking fantastic
The second and last time we saw Collymore and Heskey together. If only we hadn't been a selling club then!
Or at least had transfer windows three years earlier.
Oh wait, Collymore was signed in February. Never mind then.
What about transfer windows 3 weeks earlier?
Arbitrary but yes.
The last game I saw with my old Dad -we were behind the goal to see Collmore's hattrick and the Oakley strike. Out of all the games we saw together over the years I'm glad we were there to witness this one and end on a real high!
But we sold Heskey for £10millon, at least twice what he was worth at the time.
Probably the best game I've ever been to.
More than Man Utd could do last night
I agree. The Everton game was the best occasion I've ever been to, but that was the greatest game.
A comeback, an incredible atmosphere, a battling performance to hold on and players that cost next to nothing providing the match winning moments. Just summed us up brilliantly. Like Everton the year before it was just a perfect day/evening.
It still makes the hair stand up on the back of my neck, watching those highlights. What a time we got to experience.
This time last year
Separate names with a comma.

From Lecture 32 (and Thesis XX), I have quoted more than usual. It kind of falls into two parts; a curiously Baptistic denial of "visible church" in favor of "invisible", and an argument that although the Lutheran church may be the only church with pure doctrine, it is not the alone-saving church. But instead of dividing the material into two weeks, I press toward the mark… just gotta get to week 39!
In the sixteenth place, the Word of God is not rightly divided when a person's salvation is made to depend on his association with the visible orthodox Church and when salvation is denied to every person who errs in any article of faith.
It seems strange, indeed, that after such a long time during which Rationalism and the greatest religious indifference were prevalent, men should have hit upon the doctrine that the visible Lutheran Church is the Church κατ᾽ ἑξοχήν [par excellence] outside of which there is no salvation. However, although this seems to be incomprehensible on first blush, it is easily explained by the prolific nature of error. The mother of the awful error which we are studying is the doctrine that the Church is a visible institute which Christ has established on earth, differing in no way from a religious state.
The apostle calls the Church the body of Christ. This has prompted many even of the most faithful Lutherans to say that, since a body is visible, the Church, too, must be visible. But that is an abominable piece of exegesis. The point of comparison (tertium comparationis) in the aforementioned phrase is not the visibility of the Church, but that, instead of being composed of many dead instruments, it is a vital organism of members in whom one faith and one energy of faith is pulsating. This proves beyond contradiction that the Church is not visible, but invisible. Only he is a member of the Church who experiences the constant outflowing of energy from Christ, the Head of the Church.
The objection is raised that Christ compares the Church to a field in which wheat and tares are growing. But the objection is owing to a wrong interpretation of the parable. Christ has given us the key that unlocks its meaning. He does not say: "The field is My kingdom." In that case the Church would be a society composed of good and evil members. But He says: "The field is the world." Matt 13, 38. The Apology of the Augsburg Confession emphasizes this fact. The Savior likens His Church to a field in which tares grow together with the wheat; to a net in which good and bad fishes are caught; to a marriage feast to which foolish virgins come with others; and to which, according to another parable, one gained entrance who is not dressed in the proper wedding garment. By means of all these parables Christ does not mean to describe the essence of the Church, but the outward form in which it appears in this world and its lot among the men of this world: although it is composed only of good sheep, only of regenerate persons, still it never presents itself in the form of a congregation that is made up of none but true Christians. In its visible form the Church can never purge itself of hypocrites and ungodly persons, who find their way into it. Not until its consummation in the life eternal will the Church appear triumphant, entirely purified, and without blemish, separated from those who were not honestly and sincerely joined to it, but only sought their own secular interest in an outward union with the Church. While hypocrites and sham Christians profess Christ with their lips, their heart is far from him. They are serving their carnal lusts and not the Lord alone. In Luke 14, 26 the Lord says: "If any man come to Me and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple." In this passage Christ passes judgement on all who do not want to renounce what they have. But not until all are gathered before the judgment-seat of Christ will these people become known as hypocrites. We may see people going to church, but we cannot see whether they belong to the Church. It is impossible to declare regarding individuals that they are true members of the Church. No man, but only God, knows whether thy are. To the eyes of God alone the Church is visible; to the eyes of men it is invisible.
Now, the Lutheran Church, as a visible community, is called a "church" in a synecdochical sense. It is, therefore, an awful mistake to claim that men can be saved only in the Lutheran Church. No one must be induced to join the Lutheran Church because he thinks that only in that way he can get into the Church of God. There are still Christians in the Reformed Church, among the Methodists, yea, among the papists. We have this precious promise in Is. 55, 11: "My Word shall not return unto Me void." Wherever the Word of God is proclaimed and confessed or even recited during the service, the Lord is gathering a people for Himself. The Roman Church, for instance, still confesses that Christ is the Son of God and that He died on the cross to redeem the world. That is truth sufficient to bring a man to the knowledge of salvation. Whoever denies this fact is forced to deny also that there are Christians in some Lutheran communities in which errors have cropped out. But there are always some children of God in these communities because they have the Word of God, which is always bearing fruit in converting some souls to God.
From the fact that men may be saved in all the sects and that in all sectarian churches there are children of God, it by no means follows that one can remain in communion with a sect. Many people cannot comprehend this; they imagine it is an utterly unionistic principle to hold that a person can be saved in any of the sects. But it is true, and the reason is that we are saved by faith, which some members of sectarian churches may have. However, if I perceive the error of my heretical community and do not forsake it, I shall be lost because, though seeing the error, I would not abandon it.
Let me show you that this is indeed the doctrine of our Church. In the Preface to the Book of Concord, we read, "it is in no way our design and purpose to condemn those men who err from a certain simplicity of mind, but are not blasphemers against the truth of the heavenly doctrine, much less, indeed, entire churches, which are either under the Roman Empire of the German Nation or elsewhere; nay, rather has it been our intention and disposition in this manner openly to censure and condemn only the fanatical opinions and their obstinate and blasphemous teachers (which, we judge, should in no way be tolerated in our dominions, churches, and schools). … For we have no doubt whatever that even in those churches which have hitherto not agreed with us in all things many godly and by no means wicked men are found who follow their own simplicity, and do not understand aright the matter itself, but in no way approve of the blasphemies which are cast forth against the Holy Supper.
You may cite this fine passage if you meet with such as reproachingly say that the Lutheran Church claims to be the alone-saving Church. True, the Formula of Concord has condemned the doctrine of the Reformed, but this condemnation does not apply to those who err in the simplicity of their hearts, but only to obstinate false teachers and blasphemers.
The preface continues: "Wherefore, by this writing of ours we testify in the sight of Almighty God and the entire Church that it has never been our purpose, by means of this godly formula for union to create trouble or danger to the godly who to-day are suffering persecution." The Lutheran confessors here refer to a rumor that was being spread by the Calvinists that the Lutherans in Germany would imitate the Romanists in France and institute a St. Bartholomew's night of their own. The Lutherans asseverate [assert] in this passage that they are not planning to persecute anybody. The blood of the Huguenots will be only on papists' hands. In general, the Lutherans condemn none but those who condemn themselves by resisting the known truth.
To this day the papists seek to keep the people with their Church by telling them: "You know that we are the true Church. No matter what the Church teaches, if you want to be a true disciple of Christ, you must hear the Church. If the Pope decrees that he is infallible, or that Mary was conceived without sin, or that the saints must be adored, you must accept these dogmas. You may not consult your reason. The true Church has set up these dogmas, and it cannot err. If you fall away from the Roman Catholic Church, you fall away from the true Church." This is the bait with which they hook the people.
Luther [writes]: "When I had disproved all the arguments against me with Scripture and thus overcome them, I scarcely succeeded, by the grace of Christ, in overcoming, with great anxiety, trouble, and labor, this one final argument, that I must hear the Church. For with all my heart I was much more in earnest and much more reverent in regarding the Pope's Church as the true Church than these abominable and blasphemous perverters, who are now opposing me boastfully with the Pope's Church. If I had despised the Pope as those despise him nowadays who are praising him highly with their lips, I should have been afraid to see the earth open and devour me as it did Korah and his mob."
Luther had already discovered the untenableness of nearly every papistic teaching, except this one point, which, he says, troubled him greatly at the beginning and kept him from becoming really assured of the truth and being cheerful. The papists themselves cooked the soup which they had to eat later. God's hour had come for revealing the Antichrist.
May God keep you from becoming entangled with this false teaching concerning the Church, viz., that the Lutheran Church is the true visible Church of Jesus Christ in the sense that one can be saved only in this Church! The Lutheran Church is indeed the true visible Church; however, only in this sense, that it has the pure, unadulterated truth. As soon as you add the qualification "alone-saving" to the Lutheran Church, you detract from the doctrine of justification by grace through faith in Jesus Christ and confound Law and Gospel. May God keep you from this error for the sake of your own soul and those that will be entrusted to your care!

A fire broke out in the basement of 33-35 South 5th Ave. (now West Broadway) and swept through the entire structure, including Tesla's laboratory, which occupied the entire fourth floor of the six-story building. All of his hundreds of invention models, plans, notes, laboratory data, tools, photographs, valued at $50,000, were destroyed. Tesla is quoted by "The New York Times" as saying, "I am in too much grief to talk. What can I say?"

Röntgen Discovers X-Rays
Tesla had originally noticed what he described as "a very special radiation" years earlier when working his "carbon-button" lamp. He produced pictures he called "shadowgraphs" and had performed numerous experiments with them up until the fire at his lab. Upon learning of Röntgen's discovery, Tesla wrote him and sent some of the pictures recovered from the fire. Röntgen replied and asked Tesla how he produced them.
Lab Opened On Houston St.
After fire destroyed the 5th Ave. lab, Tesla was allowed to use Thomas Edison's workshop at Llewellyn Park, New Jersey, but this was only a temporary solution. Within a few weeks, Tesla had rented a laboratory below Greenwich Village, near Chinatown, at 46 and 48 Houston St. This building is now the home of Soho Billiards.

I so enjoyed these photos! A part of the world I'll never see in person. Happy Birthday by the way. My dad's was on the 6th. So you are a Scorpio - very deep...ReplyDelete
Love your childhood nick name - and just found your story so cute - how your mom would call you pappy but it meant poppy. Adorable.
Oh I don't know about being deep but I do love nature and find a lot of inspiration from it.ReplyDelete
Hi Sashi, you made it – well done! Your photos are lovely, thank you for sharing them. Its ages since we visited Canary Wharf. Maybe we need to make that our next trip. I love days in London, but it is tiring so we tend to only go three or four times a year.ReplyDelete
Poppy is such a pretty name. My family called me Bobbie (because as a baby, I looked like a boy!) I like the name but over the years it got shortened to Bob, and that is what stuck.Replies
Hi Barbara it is very tiring to walk in any city, but you must go to Canary Wharf sometime in the summer when it is pleasant to walk. Otherwise it can be a bit blustery and cold to hang around near the docks. We drove down there and it was very confusing to find parking because of road blocks and road works. At one point we had to stop at the police check point, they asked me if I knew where I was going had to say yes even though I had no clue where I was going. Soon after that I came to a dead end so had to turn round. I hoped I would pass the same check point otherwise the policeman would have thought I was upto no good going round and round:-)Delete
Hi Shashi..The pics are lovely and I knew about this 'Poopy sea' through the Indian Media and the lovely Barbara's beautiful blog.ReplyDelete
I am glad you visited. It must be an emotional experience for you and all those who were connected to the WWII in one way or another as I, who do not have any direct connection to it feel moved every time I see the images... Real Heroes and a real good remembrance.

"Avengers: Infinity War" will soon be wrapping up with those involved jumping right into work on the fourth "Avengers" film immediately after.
Talking "Spider-Man: Homecoming" with some press this week, Marvel Studios' Kevin Feige has teased that not all of Marvel's heroes will live to see the fourth film or beyond. Asked by JoBlo if there will be any MCU heroes killed off in "Avengers: Infinity War" he says:
"Yes… We have another two years of hard work to even finish these movies, and they [the actors] have a lot of hard work to do, so that's all we're thinking about, is completing those and delivering on the promise of those. Where it goes beyond that, we'll see."
The most likely actors headed for the chopping block are Robert Downey Jr. (Tony Stark) and Chris Evans (Steve Rogers) who've both finished up their contractual arrangements and have in the past indicated a willingness to exit.
In other MCU talk, "Ant-Man and the Wasp" director Peyton Reed has teased an announcement of some sort related to the film is on the way very soon. Reed dropped the hint on his Instagram account. At the same time he's also confirmed Christophe Beck is returning to score the sequel like he did the first "Ant-Man" film.

Celebrated country music superstar Miranda Lambert will be the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum's 15th artist-in-residence, performing two one-of-a-kind shows in the museum's CMA Theater on Wednesday, Sept. 19 and Wednesday, Sept. 26.

She writes her heart and sings her truth, and her truth resonates," said museum CEO Kyle Young. "We are honored that she is this museum's 15th Artist-in-Residence, the latest in a line of greats that includes some of Miranda's own musical heroes, like Guy Clark, Tom T. Hall, Kris Kristofferson, and Buddy Miller."
Ticket prices for each show range from $59.50 to $150 (plus ticketing fees). Tickets will go on sale to the general public on July 13 at 10:00 am CST.

Dedication to Customer Service
"Job hunting can be a particularly stressful process for even the most experience professional, but Select's efficiency and dedication to customer service shone through from the second I made contact with them. Helen really took her time to get to know me and my individual job hunting needs. She put my CV forward for positions she knew would work for me. I was well-prepped for interviews and was kept informed at every stage of the process, from job hunting to interviews, from being offered a job to successful placement."
Select Job Seeker
Always go the extra mile
"I have been working with Select for the past few months and they have helped me to fill key support roles in my team with high quality candidates. The company is a real pleasure to work with, the team always go the extra mile and are very effective in matching the right candidate to the role. I highly recommend working with them."
Select Client
Went the Extra Mile
"Great service provided by everyone at Select Appointments. Personally, Helen was very supportive throughout the whole process. She was available on the end of the phone at any time and went to extra mile, even helping with interview preparation. I'm sure I wouldn't have got the job without her assistance!
Overall, I couldn't recommend Select Appointments highly enough."
Select Job Seeker
Extension of our own operation
"The team spirit and customer focus prevalent at the Select office in Crawley is clearly obvious to all and my team now see Select Appointments, simply, as an extension of our own operation. It is a pleasure doing business with Select Appointments."
Select Client
Looked After Very Well
"Select were pro-active in finding me temporary work and, as a result of one of their short-term assignments, I was called back by the same company for five weeks and then offered a six-month contract by that company. I was looked after very well by Select, administratively and in finding me work, and I am most grateful for their efforts on my behalf."
Select Job Seeker
Bent Over Backwards
"I felt that Select bent over backwards to ensure that our vacancy was filled by the most suitable person; thank you!"
Select Client
I Absolutely Love My Job
"I just wanted to pass on my sincere thanks to you and your team. I absolutely love my job and have now been made a permanent member of staff because it was such a great match to my skills. I am so glad that I came into your agency!"
Select Job Seeker
Cannot Thank Him Enough
"I am very thankful for what Select have done for me. At first, I was getting no interviews and literally no hope for any jobs. I applied to Select for an advertised job, which was in my area of expertise and my Consultant thought I was highly suitable for this job and he gave me a chance, so he put me forward. He sorted out all the interviews, communicated well with me and never left me out of sync. I cannot thank him enough for the high standard of customer service and perseverance to get me the job that I am in now!"
Select Job Seeker
Completely Understand Our Requirements
"We have been extremely happy with the service Select has given us. Our Consultant seemed to completely understand our requirements and saved us a huge amount of time putting forward the right people for our vacancies. We will definitely be using Select again!"
Select Client
Changed My Life
"I am so happy you have no idea! You have helped change my life and I can now start a fresh and long lasting career. I cannot thank you enough for considering, helping and guiding me all the way through.
I will certainly be recommending you and Select recruitment to anyone I know. Thank you for everything!"

It arrived in a cardboard box with a lot of packing and the box looked like it had been through hell. I figured it would be destroyed but surprisingly it was in good shape. There was a dent in the door at the top of the left side and when the door is closed you can\'t see it.
Good valve for the money. (Posted on 9/18/2015)

Uniting your client's instincts with actionable data from social media, keyword research, content analysis, and analytics creates a hyperlocal strategy to reach their most interested clients. There are four key strategies for marketing companies that want to take their clients beyond mere traffic increases to high ROI and conversion rates.
Foursquare Analytics, a Dashboard for Location Intel, Debuts
Today marks the public debut of Foursquare Analytics, a dashboard that puts location intelligence in the hands of brands the company works with. The dashboard, he says, leverages Foursquare's location tech capabilities for restaurant chains, retailers, and others who need deeper consumer analytics.
Is There an SMB Analytics Market? And If So, What Should It Measure?
"I'm not convinced small businesses without a full-time in-house marketer really care about analytics," David Mihm tells Mike Blumenthal in their bi-weekly chat. "They certainly don't have the time or expertise to dive in each week and change their marketing or customer service behavior based on what a dashboard is telling them."
State of Hyperlocal Report: What's Hot in Local Marketing and Commerce
social media, data and analytics, and mobile—especially geotargeting—are the hot technology investments for marketing and commerce. The investment in data and analytics is in part driven by the biggest overall industry challenge, online-to-offline attribution measurement, and one of the most difficult issues facing individual companies, proving ROI to customers.
Street Culture: Why Lunch Is a Big Deal at Euclid Analytics
At six years old with about 40 employees, the company is currently in a growth phase, and will likely grow considerably in the next year. Euclid's director of product, Alexander Reichert, says that the daily lunch hour has been a kind of string that ties the team together.
Street Fight Launches 2nd Annual 'State of Hyperlocal' Executive Survey
In last year's State of Hyperlocal report, over half of our survey respondents said they were investing in mobile. Respondents also deemed their own company's brand awareness as their biggest challenge, even more than proving ROI to customers. What investments will make sense in 2017? With your help, we'll find out, and present the results at our upcoming Street Fight Summit NYC next month…

The company aims to help editors and reporters make decisions that can go right to the bottom line, leading to higher revenue.
Survey: Some National-to-Local Marketers Still Need Convincing on Digital Effectiveness
Street Fight surveyed over 200 managers and decision makers at big companies in retail, financial services, and other industries. We asked them about spending patterns, perceived effectiveness, pain points, etc., around their local marketing and advertising efforts.
Survey: Many National-to-Local Marketers Use Home-Grown Management and Analytics Tools
Relatively few of these sophisticated companies make use of a common tool for managing and coordinating campaigns. That's the case even though a third of respondents said various local programs were centralized at headquarters.
Survey: How National-to-Local Marketers Plan to Grow Their Digital Budgets
Street Fight recently surveyed decision makers at over 200 national-to-local marketers and found nearly half of them spend a third or more of their digital marketing budget in support of their franchises, branch offices, and distributors.
National-to-Local Marketers' Top Pain Points Center on Integration
Nearly half of those who responded said they spend 1/3 or more of their digital marketing dollars to support their branch offices, franchises, and distributors — and 40% of them expect that budget mix to increase.

Here are five tools that retailers large and small can use to make more strategic operational decisions based on the data they gather from video surveillance cameras…
6 Ways to Improve Business Operations Using Indoor Location Data
In many cases, indoor location analytics platforms take the guesswork out of operations management. Rather than guessing whether expensive in-store displays are increasing conversions, and wondering how dwell times influence sales, retailers can look at the data being spit out by their analytics platforms to find their answers. Here are six ways that businesses can use indoor location tools to improve in-store operations…
6 Ways to Use Analytics to Fine-Tune Mobile Campaigns
Mobile marketing is transforming the path to purchase, as consumers rely more heavily on their smartphones when making all types of purchasing decisions.

Been a great month for the team here at DSAD.com. I sold a name at Flippa that I bought privately and got a nice return on. Travis got a good BIN at Sedo on a name he bought for under $15. And Josh, well Josh is always killing it. He has the buy low, sell high thing going pretty well this year. On a personal note, I hike the 8 mile trip to see Hanakapiai Falls on Kauai yesterday. It poured rain before we set out which made the trail super slippery and on the verge of dangerous. The family took a few cuts and bruises but we made it to the falls. Because of all the rain it was about as spectacular as it could be. Something that is hard to describe in words and pictures. You can see why people chase waterfalls. And the dangerous trail is also why they tell you to stick to the rivers and lakes that you're used to. Sorry 🙂 (a few photos from the hike in the list) Here is today's list. Click for current prices

Whats is ID Fraud?
The types of personal information used for identity fraud include name, address history, date of birth and national insurance number. Personal information can be compromised in a number of ways, often by criminals taking documents from rubbish bins or by making contact with individuals and pretending to be from a legitimate organisation.
How can I avoid becoming a victim?
Your personal information is extremely valuable and you should take as much care to protect it as we do. The industry advise that you:
Destroy (shred, if possible) documents, including envelopes and junk mail, before you discard them
Keep important documents such as your passport or driving licence and/or financial policy documents safe
If you move house ensure your mail is redirected. Inform all of your financial providers and other organisations (such as the DVLA) of your change of address immediately
If your passport or driving licence has been lost or stolen contact the issuing organisation immediately
If you stop receiving mail contact Royal Mail for an explanation
Review your financial statements for unauthorised activity
Be suspicious if you are unexpectedly contacted by telephone, email, post or fax asking you for personal information like a password or policy number
If you are a company director, consider using a company AND private signature
Ensure your financial provider has your current contact details
Regularly obtain a copy of your personal credit file
If your plastic cards are lost or stolen, cancel them immediately
Beware of 'phishing scams' – do not access email links from product providers and do not provide login information for online accounts
Do not use the same password for more than one account and never use banking passwords for any other websites
Keep your passwords safe and never record or store them in your purse or wallet.
What are the signs of ID Fraud?
There are transactions missing on your bank statement, for example, direct debits to your investment. Fraudsters have been known to change direct debits to investments then close that investment and steal the assets
There are transactions missing on your annual statement. A fraudster may have cashed part of your investment
You stop receiving routine performance information concerning your investment, for example, your annual statement. A fraudster may have changed your address
You are unexpectedly refused credit or a personal loan.
Who can help me more?
If you think you are the victim of identity fraud contact your bank, investment company and/or your financial provider as soon as possible. Consider contacting CIFAS – the UK's Fraud Prevention Service – to apply for protective registration.

Potential of food drying
Food drying has significant development potential in the fast-growing formal and informal food processing sectors of Africa and other developing countries.
To help prospective entrepreneurs setting up projects, GERES, a French non-governmental organisation (NGO) which has been working in the field of food drying for over 10 years, has published a step-by-step-guide.
A chapter of the book is devoted to the setting up of projects and covers market identification, technical choices, quality processes and economic analysis.
Another chapter includes technical notes on the main dryers available. Also discussed are possibilities for improving the profitability of drying and adapting dryers.
Extensive appendices provide document templates, sample business analyses and vital reference information with names and addresses of technical and training centres, support consultants and research institutions in African, Caribbean and Pacific countries; and equipment suppliers.
The book provides sources of technical information on dryers in its bibliography. It says the range of dryers adapted to small-scale enterprise is limited, as a result of the relatively short history of small-scale drying.
Most drying units still use open-air drying on tiles or matting. This has many disadvantages such as no protection, uncertainty in the wet season, large ground surface area, and low productivity.

Research Paper
Association between the frequency of class II HLA antigens and the susceptibility to intrauterine infection of hepatitis B virus
1. Institute of Disease Control and Prevention, Academy of Military Medical Science, Beijing, China
Multiple factors determine the susceptibility to intrauterine hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. These factors include the HBV structure, HBV mutation, HBV DNA level, placental barrier, the immune status of the mother, and the genetic make-ups of the newborn infants. Since HLA system is an integral component of the immune response, we hypothesized that the highly polymorphic HLA genes are the key determinants of intrauterine HBV infection. In this study, we selected newborn infants of HBsAg-positive mothers, and divided the infants into 2 groups: intrauterine infection group and non-intrauterine infection group according to the status whether or not they were infected at birth. Each infected infant was compared with 2 controls from the same birth cohort. HLA-DR allele typing was performed using a PCR-sequence specific primer (PCR-SSP) for 24 subjects with intrauterine infection and 48 controls without infection. We found that, among the fifteen (15) HLA-DR alleles assessed, HLA-DRB1*07 was the one, and the only one, significantly in excess (OR = 6.66, P = 0.004) in the intrauterine infection group compared to the non-intrauterine infection group. Our findings thus suggest that high frequency of HLA class II molecules, e.g. HLA-DRB1*07, is associated with the susceptibility of the infants to intrauterine HBV infection.

If Detonated, Bomb Would Have Cost Many Lives
According to Commander Jones, the lethality of the device should it have been detonated in proximity of civilians, would certainly leave a body count.
Brig. Gen. David Jones, Explosives Expert
"The charge is complete, is intact. There is a battery that is used as a power source to set off a detonator that would actually initiate that explosive. All that was missing is the detonator which is the last thing that you would have before you set that particular explosion of."
Isani Cayetano
"From a technical perspective what is the blast radius for such a device?"
Brig. Gen. David Jones
"Well the blast for such a device, you would create injuries up to about two hundred meters with something like that, injuries. If you are within ten to fifteen meters there could be fatalities or even a bit more."
"Okay, so compared to the grenades that were taken off the street that were found, and the ones that were detonated. If you were to compare those and those were described as defensive explosive devices, if you were to compare those with this one, what would you say in terms of lethality?"
Brig. Gen. David Jones
"Well the difference with the grenades is that the grenades have a secondary effect, apart from the explosives inside, the grenade also has fragments which creates that extra lethality because it has some metal fragments in there that will tear your body apart. So those fragments from inside the grenade are not present here. It's just the raw explosives, so the danger from this is the blast. So that blast that comes out will create that damage on to the body because it creates that powerful gas that provides that push. So for someone standing close to it, it can break off your limbs or tear your body in two."
The explosive charge remains in the presence of the Belize Defense Force until it is disposed of.

Peter Coombe Mandolins and Guitars
Firstly the outline of the fingerboard is marked on the blank from a fingerboard template
I buy my fingerboards already slotted from Randy Allen. First they need to be trimmed to size. Cut one end
Then the other end.
Plane the fingerboard edges to shape.
Mark down the centre of the fingerboard.
View of centreline.
Mark the position of the dots.
Punch a hole where the dot positions have been marked. This is to prevent the drill bit from wandering.
Drill out the holes for the dots on the drill press.
Mark position of the side dots with a sharp point.
Drilling the holes for the side dots.
Here everything is ready for gluing. Fresh epoxy is mixed up with ebony dust to make up the glue. The side dots are made from white plastic rods. I use Paua Abalone for the marker dots.
Here I am gluing the dots with a toothpick.
Here I am gluing a side dot in (plastic rod).
Trim the plastic rod.
Now we wait for the epoxy to set. I use the high strength epoxy, after a dot came loose after gluing with the 5 minute epoxy, I will never use the 5 min stuff again.
After the epoxy has set, the fingerboard is sanded flat (or to a radius) on the linisher.
The side dots are trimmed with a chisel.
And then sanded flat on the linisher.
Here the fingerboard is radiused and I am sanding the radius to the final shape.
The back of the fingerboard is sanded flat.
The top is checked for straightness
The back is also checked for straightness.
As final preparation for fretting the fingerboard is sanded with 1200 wet/dry sandpaper.
Now we are ready for fretting.
First the fret slots are lightly filed with a triangular file
Frets are hammered in the slots with a dead blow hammer while the fingerboard is on a solid base (in this case my sawbench).
Each fret in turn is nipped to length as it is hammered in.
Frets are now all in and ready for dressing.
The fret ends are sanded level with the side of the fingerboard and rounded off with the finest sanding belt I have.
The slot ends are filled with melted lacquer with a soldering iron and then sanded flat on the linisher.
Sanding the ends of the frets leaves sharp edges which are rounded off with a fretting file.
Final step is to polish off the fret ends with 1200 wet/dry sandpaper.
And then glue the fingerboard to the mandolin. A few steps have been missed out here because I forgot to take the photographs.

Pennsylvania Lottery: Keno ready to launch
in Lottery
Keno ready to launch in Freeport, elsewhere
How to play Keno
Players choose up to 10 numbers, or spots, from 1 to 80. A computer randomly draws 20 winning numbers. The more spots players match, the more they can win.
Where to play Keno
Players can visit the PA Lottery website and enter their city, county, and/or ZIP Code to see where nearby lottery retailers are, or which locations have Keno monitors. https://www.palottery.state.pa.us/About-PA-Lottery/Retailers.aspx
You may be able play the popular, fast-paced lottery game Keno at any of the 9,400 lottery retailers across the state, but how many have monitors that allow you to watch the drawing results in a cool, entertaining way?
The Clubhouse on the Hill bar in Freeport soon will be a destination for Alle-Kiski Valley residents who want to enjoy Keno drawings via the big screen every four minutes.
About 600 lottery retailers in Pennsylvania have such monitors.
"In our facility, between our big screen TVs, the state installed three monitors," owner Mike Graff said. "Every four minutes or five minutes, you can bet on Keno."
The PA Lottery started offering Keno at the beginning of the month. Play starts at $1, and there are drawings every four minutes.
Players choose up to 10 numbers, or spots, from 1 to 80. A computer randomly draws 20 winning numbers. The more spots players match, the more they can win.The response from the public as well as retailers in regards to Keno has been positive, lottery spokesman Gary Miller said.
"We've received a lot of good feedback from players — 'Thank yous,'" Miller said. "The one thing we hear consistently is, 'We've been waiting for this game.' Retailers also are enthused to see their sales grow."
The PA Lottery previously wasn't allowed to offer Keno because of a clause in state law, but the Legislature nixed that as part of the Act 42 gambling legislation that was enacted last fall, Miller said.
"The provision in the law that banned Keno is no longer in existence, so we took advantage of that and introduced this new game," he said.
Other states that offer Keno include Ohio, West Virginia, North Carolina, Maryland and Massachusetts.
Keno launched in Ohio in August 2008. Danielle Frizzi-Babb, spokeswoman with The Ohio Lottery Commission, said the state has more than 9,800 lottery retailers and all offer Keno, which generated more than $396,000,000 in sales in Ohio from July 2016 to June 2017.
Miller said Keno is popular in large part because it's a social game.
"I call it a 'stay and play' kind of game," Miller said. "It's a kind of game you might want to play while you're hanging at a restaurant with friends. You can play one drawing, you can play multiple drawings at a time. Play starts at just $1, and you can win up to $100,000 on a $1 wager."
The Clubhouse is owned by Mike and Virginia Graff, who also own Graff Trucking in Fawn.
The restaurant and bar is open daily, but the rainy weather has postponed plans for an adjacent nine-hole, PGA regulation-length golf course.
"We were hoping to get it up and running by mid-July, but that is definitely out," Graff said. "We are just on hold with that right now, which is another great reason for Keno. It's just another revenue generating tool that we can use."
Keno isn't the only game the Clubhouse will offer, though. Guests also will be able to bet on virtual football and auto racing and buy lottery tickets, Graff said.
Keno should be ready to go in a couple of days. The virtual football and auto racing are expected to be ready to play by summer.
"You can sit there like a casino," Graff said. "Instead of you going to the casino, if you like this Keno game, you can go to my place and sit there and gamble all day long."
