MyLeague has one of the simplest ranking systems ever used for competitive play. The concept was adopted from the ranking system used on the official Case's Ladders. We call it a "Ladder" because each member holds a unique rank or "rung" that represents their standing among other members. The highest-ranked member holds the #1 Ladder position; for example, someone ranked #2 is ranked below the #1 member. The goal is to "climb" the Ladder all the way to the top!
- When you first join, you are placed in an "Unranked" category on the League.
- You become "Ranked" after winning your first League match. (Unranked members may play each other, and the winner becomes ranked at the bottom of the League.)
When you defeat a higher-ranked member, you move up in rank
100% the distance between their rank and
your own.
- Example: If you are ranked #50 and you beat the #1 ranked member, then your new rank would be 50.
Your rank on the League does not go down if you lose a match
unless your opponent is ranked DIRECTLY below you.
- Example: If you are ranked #5 and the #6 ranked member defeats you, then your new rank would be #6.
When members ranked below you are victorious against members
ranked above you, it's possible the member will jump over you in
rank and you will move down one rung. This depends on the ranks
- Example(per 50% rank gain): You are currently ranked #7. If the #10 ranked member defeats the #1 ranked member, then #10 will advance to the #5 rung and you will fall to the #8 rung.
Account Rules
League Names
- If your League name is deemed offensive or contains profanity, your account may be removed.
- If your League name is deemed abusive towards another member, your account may be removed.
- You can edit your League name by using the 'My Account' tab and choosing the 'Edit Username' option. If you have problems changing your League name, please use the 'Contact Admin' link, located on the 'Support' tab.
E-mail Address
- Your E-mail address must be kept current at all times, in case you need to be contacted. You can use the 'Edit E-mail Address' link on the 'My Account' tab to edit your E-mail address.
Password Security
- You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password.
- You are not permitted to share your password with anyone for any reason.
- In order to keep the League as dynamic as possible, your account will be automatically deleted if you are inactive for 365 days. However, one of the features of our Premium Membership Program is never being deleted for inactivity. Information regarding our Premium Membership Program can be found here.
Multiple Accounts
- Only one account is allowed per person. There are no exceptions to this rule.
- It is forbidden for more than one person to use or share the same account.
- Multiple accounts from the same location will be investigated and possibly removed.
Note: Please consult the Admin staff regarding whether or not League challenges are permitted for this League.
A challenge is defined as a request for a match with a higher-ranked member. Whether you are the challenger or the one being challenged, there are some rules that must be followed. Violating these rules may result in penalties. If you notice anyone violating these rules, please contact the Admin staff.
- The best way to find League matches is to announce in chat that you are looking for a League match so that other members will know you are interested in League-play. You can also directly challenge a specific member in chat.
Formal Challenges
- Most Leagues permit the use of Formal Challenges. A complete overview of the Formal Challenge system can be found here.
1 time(s) Per Day
- You may play the same member 1 time(s) per day. However, you may play as many different members as you would like on any given day. A "MyLeague" day begins at 12:00 a.m. Pacific Time.
Verify Information
- We recommend you ensure a potential opponent is also a member of the League before starting your match. You can do this very easily by searching for your opponent using the 'Search for Players' tool.
Playing a Match
Once you are ready to start playing a League match, there are some guidelines governing game play that you should keep in mind.
- You are not allowed to report losses to another member that also plays from the same computer as you. Our security software will detect this activity if it is attempted, and participating accounts may be penalized or removed.
- The same rules that apply to behavior in chat (covered in a later section) also apply during matches.
Reporting the Match
Once your match is completed, the loser of the match is responsible for reporting the loss immediately. You can report your matches using the 'Report Loss' button located on the 'Standings' tab. Please note the 'Report Loss' link should only be used for League matches and not for tournament matches; you should consult the TD with any questions regarding reporting tournament matches. If you have any problems reporting a loss, you should contact the Admin staff and request assistance.
Reporting the Loss
- In one-on-one matches, the loser of the match reports the loss to the winner.
- In partner matches, each member of the losing team reports a loss to both partners of the winning team. At the end of the match, you would either gain two wins or report two losses.
- In "free for all" matches (matches in which multiple opponents are competing against each other without partners), each loser of the match must report a loss to one overall winner.
- When playing matches with more than one opponent, it is important for losses to be reported in the proper order if rank will be affected by the order of report. You must report to the better-ranked opponent first in those cases. It is your responsibility to make sure you report in the correct order when necessary. Not doing so may result in penalty.
Unreported Matches
- If your opponent does not report their loss within one hour after completing the match or prior to starting another match, you should click on the "Contact Admin" link and then use the "Unreported Match" form.
The rules for a Tournament are determined by the Tournament Director hosting the event. You will find a summary of each individual Tournament, including a Rules page, if you follow the link for that specific Tournament.
League-Specific Rules
BROY League Rules
First of all, to join the BROY, you must be from a participating league. Please check with your Head Admin before signing up to make sure your league participates.
In order for your league to be eligible to participate in BROY, it must meet the following requirements:
Your league must be established for at least 1 month.
Your league must be established in a lounge either by itself or in a share agreement. As a common courtesy if you have a share agreement with another league make them aware that BROY will be hosted in the lobby on such and such a date. Nobody likes suprises.
Your league must also have AT LEAST 6 active and experienced TD's on staff. This is to ensure that should your league win the battle, you will have enough TD's to host the next monthly event. The BROY admin staff will take care of adjusting the tourney stats, but it is necessary to have TD's to watch the actual game tables.
Active TD's means a td who has had at least 10 or more completed tourneys and hosted one week prior to BROY.
The TD assigned to host a game table will conduct the match as if it were his/her own tourney and make sure that all rules are followed and make any decisions accordingly. The BROY admin staff reserves the right to overrule any decision made by the hosting TD should they deem it necessary.PROPER SIGN UP
BROY monthly tournaments are played in a 2 vs 2 format......i.e. your league will send a TEAM of 2 players to participate in each tourney. The ONLY acceptable team names are to be in the following format:
Example: Team members from "anyleague" participating in Tourney #1 would name their team "anyleague"_team1. Team members from "anyleague" participating in Tourney #2 would name their team "anyleague"_team2.
Teams participating in the Battle of the Sexes should name their teams in the following manner. Ladies teams should be made as follows: "anyleague"_ladies. Men's teams should be made as follows: "anyleague"_men.
Failure to sign up in the proper format could result in your being removed from the tourney.TOURNEY REGISTRATION DEADLINE
Deadline for registration for BROY tournies is 8:30 pm the night of the tourney!!
Failure to have your team completely registered (i.e. only one player signed in) by the deadline, will result in your team being removed from the tourney.TABLES
All game tables for the regular BROY and the BOS will be made by the hosting TD and are to be RATED,STD, and protected. All game tables for the Reverse BROY will be made by the hosting TD and are to be UNRATED, STD, and protected. Tables should be open for the public to allow anyone to watch. Please pay attention to the pairing announcements and wait for your invitation to the table.
Should there be circumstances warranting it, the hosting TD may make the decision to declare the table private so as to ensure fair and uninterrupted gameplay.
In the event there is an issue at a table, the BROY Admin in charge must be invited to the table.TD'ING AND PLAYING
No Broy Admin, HTD, or Hosting TD themselves will be permitted to play in the very BROY Tourney they are involved with!LONERS
Calling alone on 8 is acceptable in BROY as some feel including your partner would detriment your teams chances at taking all five tricks. However, calling on 9 is unsportsmanlike conduct and is unacceptable. If a team calls alone on 9 the hand shall be skipped back to the original dealer with a warning to be issued. If at anytime for the remainder of the BROY tournament that teams calls alone on 9 again that team will be disqualified from continuing in the tournament.BEHAVIOR
Abusive behavior and unsportsmanlike conduct will ABSOLUTELY NOT be tolerated!! This is a very simple concept: if you have nothing nice to say or feel compelled to act childishly, then DON'T PLAY!!!!
Spamming by non-hosting leagues is NOT permitted during BROY events.
Only the Td's hosting are allowed to use caps.
It is strongly suggested that if the hosting league continues to run tourneys while hosting BROY that they host from a table. The Hosting League has the right to spam for TOURNIES ONLY should their league have scheduled a regular tourney at the same time as the BROY event.
All other leagues are permitted to cheer for players participating in the BROY, but not to spam or advertise their own league.
Indirect swearing is permitted....i.e. Player 1 misclicks and orders trump when he/she didn't mean to and immediately says, "Oh shit!" We've all been there, done that and understand where they are coming from.
However, FOUL and ABUSIVE language will NOT be tolerated!!!! There will be no badgering of any player or visitor at a table.
ALL BROY members are permitted to watch any game. There will be no booting of a BROY member from any game table. Non-BROY members may be booted from a table at the discretion of the hosting TD. HOWEVER, if a visitor at a table is causing a distraction, the players have the right to request of the TD or any BROY admin that the table be cleared so that they may continue the match without further distractions.
If you have a problem with another member, DO NOT BRING IT HERE!!!! Any player creating unnecessary drama at a BROY event will not only find themselves being penalized, but their league as well!!! You are participating as a representative of your league, therefore any penalties issued will extend to your entire league.
If a player kibitz's during a game and they are a member of the league playing , they will be asked to leave the table. The game will continue after they have left. They will not be allowed at the team tables for the rest of the tournament. If they do not abide by these rules, their league has the possibility of being dq'd.
Any problems should be directly taken to BROY Admin. Players should contact their league representative which in turn would contact a BROY Admin. Do not discuss problems in the lobby. Should problems be discussed in the lobby a warning will be issued, if talk continues that league will be suspended from BROY for 2 months.SUBBING
This is a league vs league competition. If at anytime one of your team members gets booted or goes MIA for any reason, another member from your league may sit in as a substitute. Once a substitute takes a seat and commences game play, they will continue for the remainder of the tournament as the player for that team. Having at least 2 subs on stand by is strongly suggested.
It is the leagues responsibility to have subs on hand and in the room ready to step in as needed. Leagues should have subs ready at the individual game tables to step in at any given moment.
ALL SUBS MUST BE REGISTERED MEMBERS OF BROY. If there is a need to check on the status of a member of BROY this must be done within allotted time of 5 minutes.TIMERS
Players should watch lobby for pairings and know when and who will be inviting them to the table. All players are to make sure their computer is in good working order BEFORE the tourney starts.
A 5 minute timer will apply to bootings, freeze ups and things of this nature. As soon as it has been determined by the TD that a player is froze, booted, or what have you, the TD will commence the timer.
If at all possible, if you are booted or unable to get back to the game table in a timely fashion, please contact your Head Admin or Admin Rep to make arrangements for a substitute. As previously stated, once a substitute commences game play, they will continue playing for the remainder of the event.
If a player cannot return to the game table, a substitute must be in place prior to the end of the 5 minute timer, or the team will forfeit the match. At no time do we hit the CANCEL or FORFEIT buttons prior to the end of the allowed 5 minutes. Use the WAIT button. Only the hosting TD will give you the go ahead to CANCEL a match....... we do not force a forfeit in BROY matches.GLITCH RULE
There is no set glitch rule for BROY. We have all faced a Yahoo! glitch and to date, it has not been the end of the world. Please be fair and sportsmanlike when attempting to resolve a match where a glitch has occurred. The BROY Admin will have the final say in how to proceed.CHEATING
Cheating of any kind will NOT be tolerated in BROY events!!! This includes the use of any type of program which aids you in card counting and things of this nature. We do have ways of determing if programs of this nature are being used.
While it may not always be possible to determine 100% if cheating is going on, please be assured that even the APPEARANCE of cheating will be thoroughly investigated by the BROY staff and penalties doled out if we deem necessary.COACHING
Coaching of players by visitors at a table is strictly forbidden.
Conversation and the cheering of players is permitted and encouraged. We are all here to have fun as well as play a mean game of euchre.
The BROY Admin will determine whether or not coaching is going on.WINNING THE BROY
The winning league of the BROY event will host the following month's battle and provide a minimum of 6 TD's to help with watching tables.
Monthly winners will be listed on the main page of BROY and will jump in rank to 1st and 2nd. If a sub plays more than half the tourney they will jump rank to 3rd. If the sub plays the entire tourney they should be listed 2nd and the original player won�t jump in rank.
A trophy will be given to the winning league each month for them to place on their main page if they choose.FORUM
The BROY forum is to be used for pertinent questions and as a means to issue congratulations. If you choose to use the forum for thrashing, bashing, or the like, your post will be promptly removed and you will not be permitted to participate in a BROY event again!!OTHER PENALTIES
All other penalites will be made on a case-by-case basis by the hosting TD and/or the BROY staff. The Head Admin of BROY reserves the right to override any decisions made.EPILOGUE
This is a once a month event that a lot of people like to participate in. We encourage a healthy spirit of rivalry and competition. If you have never won the BROY, always remember there is next month!
Taking defeat can be hard at times, but knowing you did your best and can say, "Wow! That was one helluva game!" makes you a winner. .
Top Ten
The purpose of the League is to climb to the top and the competition for the rungs in the Top Ten is high. As such, we have special rules that apply for members in the Top Ten.
- Members in the Top Ten must play a League match at least once every 255 days; otherwise, you will be automatically dropped five rungs and your inactivity counter is reset. There are no exceptions to this rule.
Expected Behavior
As a member of MyLeague, you are representing the League, the Admin staff, and all other members when you are participating on a MyLeague. It's part of your responsibility as a member to act in a respectable manner within your League community.
- The rules of common decency should be followed when uploading images to use as avatars. Inappropriate avatars may be removed without warning or notification.
- If you believe your opponent is cheating, then you should contact the Admin staff.
- It is forbidden to abuse or harass another League member.
- It is important to remember that two wrongs do not make a right. If you are being harassed by another League member, contact the Admin staff for assistance. Do not take matters into your own hands or return the abuse, or you could be penalized as well.
Nice Guy Rule
- Please note that behavior guidelines govern all methods of communication. This includes chat, E-mail, message forums, instant messenger services, etc. Treat other members with respect!
Fill in the Blank
Although we have tried to be as detailed as possible, we can't cover every aspect of gaming in our rules. Please be advised that just because something is not stated in our rules and policies, then that does not mean it is allowed. Use common sense. If it is something that will adversely affect other members and you might think twice about it, then it's probably against the rules. The Admin staff will have the final say in such matters. If you have a specific question please feel free to contact us via E-mail.

I can't hide the fact that when I wrote the last entry Longing for a Place to Call Home, I was gripped by fear. Fear of change as I was embarking into the unknown. Today, I realise that I was too attached to an ideal state of happiness. As if there's a particular location which guarantees one's happiness. I was also afraid of change and a transition that appeared to threaten the very core of who I am.
Even if I still feel a strong need to be in silence and for contemplation, the fact is that it was a mistake to think that a particular place can guarantee my peace and happiness. I realise that I can be in that place of peace in the present, wherever I am. Happiness, I am reminded, isn't something that can be bought or attained by external objects. While objects we desire might give us momentary happiness, the feeling quickly fades away. And we find ourselves longing, wanting and craving for another object which appears to hold the promise of happiness.
Now that eight days have passed since I moved in to my new house, I am hopeful that it'll become my home as well. I have learned a lot from my own self and in relating to the others who are sharing in this experience. I know that I may still be scared of change. I learned that when it feels I'm isolated, instead of reaching out to people, I tend to distance myself more. And, most importantly, I have realised that the more we hide from what seems to be an oppressive reality, the more problems and challenges appear insurmountable - until the only reaction is for us to escape or deny ourselves the chance to explore other possibilities or solutions.
This post appears to be a happy ending to a tale that appeared to end on a tragic note. However, these last hours have opened my mind to the possibility that, maybe, if I wasn't so resistant to change, I could make things work. I can always find a place of peace and refuge in my heart. I recognise that there can be no lasting happiness in a material world that remains impermanent, prone to a cycle of entropy. I can't even be sure of a reality beyond this life. However, what I am sure of is that as long as I remain aware of the present moment and appreciate its preciousness and uniqueness, I can be truly happy.
Life may be hard or draw us in moments of sadness and melancholy. We may be robbed of all our possessions and denied our friends. And, still, we can be happy. Yes, this is a tall order and I'm still far off from achieving such kind of happiness. For one can be rich or have all the things one desires and still be unhappy. Indeed, happiness isn't simply an emotion or a feeling.
Happiness is a state of being...

Microsoft has launched its Azure data center in Brazil's Sao Paulo state, promising to provide fully secured cloud computing services to Brazilian companies concerned about cyber spying. The new data center will store data within the country and provide customers with better performance through reduced latency.
Microsoft Azure, formerly Windows Azure, is a cloud computing platform and infrastructure for building, deploying and managing applications and services through a global network of Microsoft-managed data centers. Internet security has become a sensitive issue in Brazil after news emerged that the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) spied on its President Dilma Rousseff and the state-owned oil company Petrobras...

The word 'cloud' refers to an informal expression used to describe a network of computers which are joined together in real time by a single computing network. This whole system of communication is called a cloud computing technology. Cloud computing technology is used today by the help of the internet. The medium of the internet helps in maintaining a real time or live communication forum for cloud computing technology.
In this, large quantities of computers are connected via the internet. The term cloud computing technology does not indicate or represent the scientific term for such a network. In computer science studies, this term, cloud computing technology is used to simply describe the ability or capacity for people to be able to operate a single program over many connected computers all at the same time...

Few trends have gained as much mind share and momentum as the rush to move all our data and computing to the cloud. The fever for the cloud runs high — and it runs largely unchecked. Some, including AppZero CEO Greg O'Connor, believe that the move to the cloud is only going to accelerate. In this vision of the future, all information will be stored in centralized services and your computing devices (laptop, phone, tablet, etc.) will all access storage in the cloud.
In the more than 15 years I've spent in the data protection, storage and networking spaces, I've witnessed firsthand the benefits many companies — and users — have reaped from this trend. In the eyes of the consumer, the internet has morphed into a group of centralized services that many of us use on a daily basis...

Cloud computing has quickly become a driving force of unprecedented change across the IT and business landscape. Organizations are adopting the potential of the cloud to reap the benefits of business innovation and agility, and to enable new processes and insights that were previously impossible. Business and IT are transforming into "everything as a service." Those companies that do not adopt the cloud will fall behind the pace of change. What can we do today to prepare for tomorrow?
To find the answer to this question, I interviewed Sven Denecken, VP of Strategy for Cloud Solutions at SAP and speaker at The in Cloud 2020 Forum at SAPPHIRE NOW next week in Orlando, on a Google+ Hangout last week. Sven provided valuable insights on the impact of the cloud, what businesses can do prepare and what cloud will look like in 2020...

Companies today are facing a torrent of digital opportunities – a CIO's dream come true if properly tamed. A 2014 Gartner survey reveals that cybersecurity –once the number one concern for enterprise cloud adoption – is becoming a lower strategic priority among CIOs. This is a shocking fact, considering that just two years ago most IT departments approached cloud computing with a huge degree of apprehension.
According to James Staten at Forrester, 2013 was the year enterprises got real about cloud computing. 2014 will be the year the cloud is integrated into existing IT portfolios. This shift in priorities is fueled by some major changes that have been transforming the cloud industry over time...

How can using and working with "the cloud" be like Las Vegas? You're probably thinking I've lost my mind, but bear with me! At a recent conference, while I was looking out of my hotel room window, I began to see some similarities between Vegas and what is happening in business and IT as we all move to the cloud.

If you have been to Las Vegas over the last decade or so, you have seen large transformations in how the city runs. Now, I've had the "opportunity" to be in Vegas many times over the last few years, and there is always something new. For most people that "consume the services" of Vegas, these things just seem to appear...

"It's become the phrase du jour," says Ben Pring, former Vice President of Research at Gartner, of the term cloud computing. "The problem is tvhat everyone seems to have a different definition." So let's start out with the simple question: What is cloud computing? According to Oxford Dictionaries, it's the practice of using a network of remote servers hosted on the Internet to store, manage, and process data, rather than a local server or a personal computer. Now, instead of using a personal computer to run an application, individuals can do this from anywhere in the world.
With easy access to information, automatic software integration and fast deployment, cloud computing is here to stay and it's growing. Companies like SciQuest, who provide products which are completely cloud-based, can provide significant advantages to their customers compared to on-premise solutions that other business automation software providers offer. As more and more organizations adapt to this technology – and get used to the cost and efficiency benefits – new trends have emerged and here are the ones we think are most noteworthy:..

Nearly half of the world's population will be using cloud computing services in some fashion by 2018, according to a new study by Juniper Research.

But that number is expected to rise to 3.6 billion according to the study.

text: Mostly a vent. Angry and frustrated. Our daughter is 30. diagnosis'd ADHD and bipolar in elementary school. Then suffered a brain aneurysm at age nine. Had brain surgery. She is medication compliant. Had many many years of therapy. She is crazy jealous of her brother, who is biological. He is successfully employed, happily married etc. She is adopted. Can be very bizarre at holidays. This started from the beginning!!!! A year or so ago, we had to talk with her , which is very tough, because she often becomes hysterical if you mention that she did something that upset you. This is one of her "traits" I loathe. She was doing better, but upset many folks at Fourth of July with her oddball behaviors. Note: She will say things to extended family that aren't even true like "my brother liked hamburgers and so my mom made all of us eat hamburgers six days a week!!!!" We now live in separate cities. So, we pay for her to take the train to stay with us and attend any holuday functions. She was miserable this holiday. But, we didn't say much of anything. We bent over backwards to be helpful and calming. Our son was the same. He even took her out to a place he knew she would like. She was weird, rude and didn't thank him. Then when she got home, we get an email letter from her. This is the gist of it...much actual verbiage: I'm sorry I'm not perfect and don't have a job. I'm sorry I am not thin or look like a model. I'm sorry I'm not more independent...but you are the ones that insisted on a payee. You wanted to adopt a girl , so you picked me, I did not pick you. Ok. I'm ticked. Cry me a river. I'm tired of this same song and dance. This adoption card. Enough. Husband said this all came about because she wanted to borrow money and he said no. The day before he gave her $20 for something and that wasn't enough. She is hideous with money. Almost scarey. We looked at our expenses last month and were blown away at how much we inadvertently loaned her. We budget her money and try to stick to that and usually do but sometimes understand unusual things come up. But, lately she seems to have many "unusual" things come up so NO. Hence the weirdo letter. She is so obese, she now breathes heavy when she walks. She is a smoker. Diabetes runs in her bio family. Of course I'm concerned about her overweight. I rarely mention it anymore. She almost goes out of her way to get heavier eating large fries, double cheeseburgers and extra large cokes. She gets significantly more from us than her brother in so many ways...# 1 is time. I'm sooooo tired of this I could scream. Enoughhhhhh. After begging my husband for money today and Both of us saying noooooi, she gave up. Tonight she called (all sweet) and said she needed money for a new shirt. Doubtful. Said she had an event coming up and most of her shirts don't fit. Husband said if she apologized for that nonsense letter, he would get the shirt. She said she shouldn't have to apologize for her feelings. She has a small point. But these feelings are based on what? yes, we would like things to be better but accept her. We only ask that she is polite and do better with money. WTH? I think that is loving and fair. This is her baggage. Enough. We are sick and tired of her song and dance about how we do this that and the other thing to her that is either blatantly false or grossly exaggerated and beyond sick and tired of her ruining holidays. Also tired of this bizarre over reaction with her brother. I thought she was improving, but she wasn't. I'm a little intimidated by her because if you try to point out anything to her she might fly off the handle...even in the presence of children. Of course, that would permanently end her holiday trips. And other oeople found her loud, peculiar and she made them uncomfortable with her bizarre stories insinuating that her parents were so awful. Any suggestions? Maybe separate holidays? She will be ok for awhile, but is not to be trusted...especially (big time) around her brother who she is insanely (literally) jealous of. We visited her where she lives last month and she was fine. Omg. But anywhere near her brother and she goes nuts. Oddly, although her brother is doing very well, he has quirks like everyone and we are all aware of them. Sadly, she likes telling everyone too. He keeps his mouth shut about her, but she is a walking advertisement for strange all by herself (goes triple if he is nearby) .

Apologies 24 Apr, 2006
Dealing with a number of recent comment spam attacks whilst in a considerably frazzled state of mind (no thanks to bloody work!) has finally bit me on the bum: I deleted my last weblog post! For the first time in four years! Doh!
Sorry about that. For what it's worth, it was nothing special anyway. I just cannot be bothered to reconstruct it, so if I've broken a cardinal rule of permanent URLs / weblogging / whatever, please forgive me!
Returning to the site—specifically dealing with these dumb-arse attacks—I started a re-design a long time back. But I also have the next version of DominoWiki on the stove too. And stacks of tedious work. And stacks of tedious documentation. And a presentation to write. Oh Lordy… Back to it!

The reason why? Because it's so very vague and, at the same time, it's this kind of a monstrously large concept. The fact is, the particular idea of new has always been an issue within talking about writing and doing actual writing. New has simply already been a HUGE, black, mysterious box that could hold just about anything plus everything in it-and performed! -because, up to today, we've never had a reliable, helpful, across-the-board approach for telling one sort of newness from another.
You need to know the different High Description televisions currently available.
But old is equally as vague as new, isn't it? What's missing? Response: Two insightful sets regarding categories to fit Every thing.. One thing we do know is that something wouldn't end up being new unless there was something old to compare this to.
The 1080i carries an incredibly high pixel rating. Typically the 720p offers lower pixel rating, but provides progressive scanning making fast paced pictures, like sports in addition to movies smoother. Guarantee you be sure to contact a cable service provider to know what they broadcast and then acquire your high definition television in order to work with this transmission. The 1080 p will combine high cote ratings and progressive deciphering. Whilst high-priced, it's deemed as the best high quality HDTV to buy.
This will be a good television to get a master bedroom where one or maybe two individuals will enjoy it. The trunk projection or DLP varieties are inexpensive with excellent picture, but you will certainly have to view the photo straight on to find it. This is certainly not a good option for the living room where numerous people will gather to be able to watch the super bowl games.
Here are some of the things you should understand about HDTV's when an individual are shopping:.
EXAMPLES: you looked forward in order to Junior Prom, thinking that would be very intimate, but it was a new yawner because your date was so shyyou expected dad to be strict regarding getting home early right after dates, but he's actually been very lenient concerning itexpecting your rich brand new friend will be generous with money, you locate, instead, that he's usually seeking to bum some money off of a person.
If you do not really have one of typically the HD ready televisions, after that the ones with built-in Freeview HD will likewise be available soon. With this particular, you can also accessibility as much as 50 SD digital channels and also radio stations for free.. This is a television service which is offering HD channels that you can access from your current TV high free of charge. This is obtainable in a setup container and you can catch it up to some TV SET that is HD Prepared.
Given the numerous choices on the market nowadays, your purchasing experience can be overpowering. When you are buying a HDTV or high definition television, this particular would be a fair balance between typically the size, features and typically the best available price. But, when you have some understanding of the functions that you want this could make your decision much easier. These days, you furthermore have a chance to get Freeview HD, so you can explore this particular option as well.
We aren't say anything without making use of these in basic, everyday communication-especially in essays. Let's appearance at some examples of these kinds of five oldies which are worth their weight in gold:.
Okay, smarty pants–now go and do likewise.
NOTE: I've place the items in the lists of the new view choices and the old see categories in their current order based on just what I have observed as their frequency of use within essays, short stories, in addition to novels. Old view Values and new view Verso are at the best of their separate lists because they occur more often than the rest regarding the items within their provides, and the rest are usually in descending order of frequency, so the least regular is last in each list.

"Substantial amounts of corn and some soybeans remain in the field in the eastern Corn Belt," USDA says. In the West, USDA reports mild, dry weather prevails in most areas during a lull between storms. "However, scattered rain and snow showers linger from the Pacific Northwest to the northern Rockies," USDA explains. On the Plains, USDA says a few patches of light rain and drizzle are confined to southern portions of the region. "Throughout the region, mild weather favors some late-season winter wheat development," USDA reports. "In the South, warm, dry weather favors late-season fieldwork, including winter wheat planting and cotton, peanut, and soybean harvesting," USDA says. In its outlook, USDA says during the early- to mid-week period, a plume of moisture will result in as much as 1 to 3 inches of rain from eastern Texas to the Mid-Atlantic States. "In contrast, dry weather will prevail for the remainder of the week across much of the Plains, western Corn Belt and Southwest," USDA says. Elsewhere, USDA reports significant precipitation (1 to 4 inches or more) will occur from the Pacific Northwest to the northern Rockies. "Meanwhile, early-week warmth across the eastern half of the U.S. will be replaced by a short-lived cold snap," USDA adds. Toward week's end, however, temperatures will begin to rebound across the South and East, while some very cold air will arrive across the northern Plains and the West, USDA says. Back to news

That is until I figured out DUH. You can just convert your already awesome recipes into jar mixes. BIG FAT DUH!
Say you've got a killer chocolate chip cookie recipe. Just layer the dry ingredients in the jar, stuff that won't go bad, sugar, flour, chocolate chips, and attach a tag (or not if it's for your own use) for what to add to it to turn it into cookies. DERP! I never thought of that before. I'm an idiot. Mind you you don't HAVE to make these into jar mixes, but it's an option.
But, anyway, a few years ago I ran across this recipe for White Chocolate Cranberry Bar Mix. It's actually REALLY good, not that I can eat it because it'll send me into, you guessed it, a diabetic coma. But I have taken nibbles and DAMN, it's good.
Now, traditionally you layer the ingredients in the jar all nice like. Mostly because you are giving them as gifts. But this was for my cabinet. I made it probably about a year ago and totally forgot it was in there until I dug it out of the back. Not so pretty, but still works:
Then grease up your pyrex. I used cooking spray. The picture came out kinda weird, but it's cool so I'll show you.
Now you go ahead and dump your mix into a bowl and add the wet ingredients like eggs, vanilla, etc. Whatever the recipe calls for.
Then you mix the hell out of it and pour it into the pan. Well, for this recipe it's not pouring, it's more like "pressing" cause the batter is kind of thick.
And now you bake the hell out of it. After you stuck your fingers in the batter and tasted it of course.
As you can see, these don't last long. At all. Not in my house anyway.
They are REALLY sweet and REALLY rich so be prepared. Even if they didn't send me to blood sugar hell, I doubt I could eat a whole bar of these because they are so rich. They're evil. And they are SO worth making!
White Chocolate Cranberry Bar Mix
Layer in a quart mason jar:
1/4 cup white chocolate chips
1/2 cup sweetened dried cranberries
1 cup buttermilk biscuit mix
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup regular brown sugar
To Make You'll Need:
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 tsp vanilla
1 large egg
Dump jar mix into a bowl and add the butter, vanilla and egg. Mix well. Spread into a greased 8×8 pan. Bake at 350 for 25-35 minutes until toothpick inserted near center comes out clean.

"If you go to Milan [ Design week ] you see what will be in stores tomorrow; if you go to Dutch Design week in Eindhoven you will see what will be in stores in 5 years."
– Tim Vermeulen, Program Director of the Dutch Design Foundation
Dutch Design Week (DDW) is the second largest design-week event in Europe, centered in the city of Eindhoven, which is about 125km south of Amsterdam near the Dutch border with Belgium. Organized by the Dutch Design Foundation, it focuses is on designs of the future, showcasing amazing works of hundreds of designers in pavilions across the city.
The event was started in 1998 with the purpose of bringing together entrepreneurs and designers and has grown every year since then with the support of the City of Eindhoven, the Dutch Design Counsel and of course many partners and creatives.
2017's theme was "Stretch", applied by exhibitors in a variety of ways – from the literal stretching of component materials to doing more with less via eco-friendly initiatives. One of the largest exhibits in 2017 was an entire building of "borrowed" materials, constructed for the event in under two weeks. The façade of the structure was comprised of 9500 colourful recycled-plastic tiles, the raw materials for which were donated over time by the citizens of Eindhoven and surrounding towns. Other parts of the structure were standard building materials that were "on loan" from their owners – with the interesting twist that when something is loaned to you, you cannot damage it – so no sawing, drilling, gluing or similar that you'd normally do when building a structure.
Of course, with an event this successful you need to plan your visit in advance – the event regularly attracts over 300,00 visitors from around the world to a city whose population only numbers 225,000 so flights and hotels book up quickly! The 2018 dates for this year's event are October 20th – 28th.
The event programme from 2017 can give you a deeper insight into what to expect: http://www.ddw.nl/en/programme

Its figurative use dates from the first half of the 1800s.

LONDON — "Everyone has the right to nationality."
Kimberly Karseboom's presentation on citizenship rights last Monday began with a review of the relevant legislation. Ms. Karseboom, a third-year law student at Georgetown University in Washington, then summarized a 2005 ruling by the Inter-American Court of Human Rights against the government of the Dominican Republic, which had refused to issue passports to two girls who had been born in the country but had Haitian parents. Even after the court ruled against it, a discouraged-sounding Ms. Karseboom told the class, the Dominican Republic had refused to comply.
"That happens frequently in the Inter-American system of human rights," said Francisco Ibarra Palafox, head of the Institute for Legal Research at the National Autonomous University of Mexico and the class teacher. "Decisions can take many years to produce effects. But don't forget, at the end of the day, moral sanctions are very important."
Ms. Karseboom was not convinced. "What can be done to enforce this ruling if the Dominican Republic don't really care?" she said. "I would never bring a case in this court — ever."
Up until this point, the discussion, which took place in a classroom just off Chancery Lane in the heart of London's legal district, had remained relatively abstract. Then another student spoke up, and the dispute suddenly came alive.
"I was born in Jerusalem," said Nardine Jildeh, a recent graduate of Al-Quds University in that city. "I have an Israeli travel document. I also have a Jordanian travel document. It looks like a passport, but I don't have the right to live in Jordan. So I'm basically stateless."Continue reading the main story
Such encounters across cultures are among the main reasons students come here to the Center for Transnational Legal Studies, a unique honors program that this semester draws 60 students from 15 countries to classes taught by legal scholars from Australia, Canada, Israel, Italy, Mexico and the United States. Set up in 2008 and administered by Georgetown, the center's 12 founding partners include the Free University of Berlin, the University of Fribourg, Hebrew University, King's College London, the National University of Singapore, the University of São Paulo and the University of Toronto. But another dozen universities in Chile, China, Colombia, India, New Zealand, Russia and South Korea regularly send students.
Naomi Mezey, the center's academic co-director, explained that although Georgetown had a spacious campus in Washington, the decision to locate the center outside the United States had been deliberate — and set the program apart from other law schools, like that of the University of Pennsylvania, which has a clinic in transnational law, a growing field that studies the way laws apply to individuals, corporations and governments across national boundaries.
The center was the brainchild of Alexander Aleinikoff, formerly dean of the Georgetown law school who resigned to become United Nations Deputy High Commissioner for Refugees. "There are 15 different legal systems in the room, starting from 15 different assumptions," said Scott Foster, the center's executive director.
Ms. Mezey, who teaches courses on law and culture at Georgetown, said, "Nobody is on their home turf here. That really pulls students and professors out of their comfort zones."
Kerry Rittich, a professor at the University of Toronto and the other co-director, pointed out, "CTLS is a place where everyone is a stranger. Globalization is a legal project — it's based on laws. We want students to think about what the institutions that govern globalization should be. Who's in control? And how do you get political input and democratic accountability?"
Students can spend one or two semesters at the center, and they typically come toward the end of their studies. Students at founding partners pay tuition to their home universities; other partner schools pay $10,000 a semester for each student they send. Founding partners are also required to send faculty members for one semester, and the academic co-directors serve one-year terms.
For Liron Mark, who was at CTLS last semester, the main benefit of the program "was that I fell in love with the law again." Ms. Mark, a graduate of Hebrew University, said by telephone that many of her fellow students "had never heard of Israel. For the first time, I had a chance to hear from people who live under different kinds of justice systems. In Israel comparisons are usually made with Germany or Britain or the U.S." I was really fascinated by the Malaysian system."
Alice Ollino, a fifth-year from the University of Torino, was struck by "the stark differences between civil law countries like Italy and common law countries" like Britain and the United States. Education in common law countries "is all about cases," she said, while her own education had been focused on "statutes, articles, texts." She said it was also important to meet other students interested in human rights. "Most law students are interested in economics," she said. "They don't say human rights are pointless — just less important."
But Wei Zhen Lim, from King's College London, needed no convincing about the importance of human rights — or the relevance of the discussion in Mr. Palafox's class. "I'm Malaysian, so the comparisons are really interesting," she said.
As might be expected among law students, there are dissenters. "I think that if you bring together people with diverse experiences and you don't set clear expectations, you end up with a 'lowest common denominator' situation," said Corey Prachniak, a Georgetown second-year, in an e-mail. "So if some students aren't used to reading before class, and they aren't told to do so, pretty soon no one is. I've been told that this confusion is all part of the experience here, but it's surprising to me that we learn more about other students' study habits than their opinions relating to law."
Ms. Mezey, the co-director, said, "He does raise a genuine issue in the sense that the very strength of the program — diversity of nationality, language and legal and cultural perspectives — is also one of its key challenges. But most participants experience the strengths as far outweighing the challenges."
For Ms. Jildeh, whose stateless condition made it harder to get the visa that enabled her to attend classes, the program was "a dream." She enjoyed her classes, but was especially pleased to find her fellow students "respected me and were so eager to know more about my culture, my language, music, food and last but not least the political conflict."Continue reading the main story

Girlfriend of tenant refusing to leave property.....

0 Thanks
my tenant has contacted me in a bit of a state. His girlfriend who has been living with him for several months with her 10 year old son is refusing to leave our property now their relationship has ended. He has suggested we transfer the tenancy agreement over to her to avoid any further upset between them and he will move out but ideally he wants to stay on at the house and we definately want him to stay as he pays all bills by standing order and doesnt hassle us for anything. The agreement is in his name only so does the girlfriend have the right to stay there because she has a young son and no where else to go?? We havent spoken with her yet but would be grateful for any advise on how we best approach the situation.

Mr. Clay Kohlhagen
Don-Martin Heating, Cooling & Geothermal
3500 Newville Road
Janesville, WI 53545
Dear Clay:
My husband and I would like to extend a big thank you for all the work, technical support, and help that you and your crew have provided us over the past several months.
In the fall of 2009, we installed two separate geothermal systems at our residence; one system for our house and another for our workshop which utilizes radiant floor heating. We began the process by obtaining numerous quotes. After extensive research and consideration comparing cost, technical knowledge and reference checks we opted to utilize Don-Martin Heating for our project and have no regrets.
Clay and his staff are "top-notch" responding to all our needs and requests. They continue to work through situations eliminating any concerns and meeting all expectations. They always get back to me timely and keep me abreast of the schedule. As part of the full service support, Clay also helped complete local rebates and information for tax incentives providing a complete turn-key service. Clay has demonstrated through his work to be very professional, courteous, knowledgeable and trustworthy. He has provided much needed advice at all stages throughout the entire process (initial quote, installation, and post installation).
I would highly recommend using Don-Martin heating for all your heating and cooling needs. Their service is great and we know we can count on them at any time and into the future. I have already recommended Don-Martin to family, friends and colleagues. Just recently my brother utilized Don-Martin services to install an air conditioner. This also proved to be another cost-effective job well done.
Thanks again,
Julie Mosley
Just to let you know how pleased we are with our geo thermal Water Furnace. After 1 year of use the unit has used $274.06 worth of electricity over the previous year. This is for heating and cooling. With our old system we would have used 700-800 gal of propane at $1.44/gal ($1000-$1150) plus the cost of air conditioning ($120). Our total savings for the first year is close to $1000.
With cost of propane going up every year, our Water Furnace will pay for itself in 8-10 years.
We actual kept the house 2 degrees warmer in the winter and 3 degrees cooler in the summer then we did with our old system, so the savings could be even greater than this. The heating and cooling is more even with fewer cold spots next to windows or walls in the winter. With an older house like ours this is a great improvement.
We were also pleased with the installation of the Water Furnace. Everything was neatly done and looks great. It fits in the footprint of our old furnace without looking like an add on unit.
I am attaching actual usage of electricity and graphs showing average temperatures over the first year.
