You don't get much recognition for running a Strider fansite. It is, almost by definition, a solitary task. Half the time you don't even know if anyone's reading your site anymore, or if anyone cares. The series seems to be that dead, despite the insinuations of various wankers at gaming magazines worldwide.
So when you do get an award, of any kind, it tends to stand out.
The LSCM was awarded the Organization for the Preservation of Classic Forms of Gaming's Award of Excellence back in 2002. At the time, I was kinda unsure of where to put it on my site (because I didn't have an awards section), and unsure of whether I should put it on my site or not (because I just happened to be friends with the guy who runs the OPCFG, Rob Strangman). I didn't know how it would look, considering how he and I go way back, so I did what I always do in those kinds of awkward situations. I ignored it.
Months went by. Rob, being the great sport that he is, politely emailed me and reminded me that they'd sent my site an award and, it was linked on their own awards page. I realized I was being a jerk and put the award up on the LSCM. I shouldn't have worried, because hey, it wasn't the Strider Army's A-Class Award. This is actually a decent award, from a guy who knows classic games in and out. Go check out the OPCFG's homepage sometime. It's a veritable shrine to nostalgia.
I think, though, that my biggest reward came when Rey Jiminez over at Capcom USA emailed me. He was looking for information about the series, because he was gathering information for Capcom Classics Collection, Vol. 2. No one currently working at Capcom was working back when they developed Strider, the way Rey told it, and we spent several emails batting back and forth factoids and half-truths about the series. Ultimately, my contributions wound up making it into the collection, as part of the bonus features. I contributed all of the Hints and the bit about Strider being based on a manga, in the Summary (which I also got to pass approval on). It was a very cool moment for me, because I am the first Strider fansite webmaster to get his name in a videogame associated with the series. The only way to top it would be to work on an ACTUAL Strider game.
If you have the game, check the "Special Thanks" section. You'll find my name there: Sam Roberts. For helping him out, Rey sent me copies of the PSP and PS2 NTSC versions. It was a very, very sweet moment, and I'm truly grateful he emailed and asked for help. It's not like he had to do that. Technically, all the information on the LSCM is Capcom's anyway. He could've just taken the info from my site and never said anything. But he didn't.
Sorry Rob, but I think that tops your OPCFG award. Hey, at least I've got it up here now, though. Right? | 2019-04-18T14:31:58 | https://lscmainframe.kontek.net/awards.html |

Are we about to see a change of focus from the Tories regarding the use of these cash generators?
This morning on breakfast news (Kate Silverton looked hot as, BTW) there was a repeating hourly report on Swindon 1 year after removing their fixed speed cameras. Guess what, there was no rise in accidents – surprise?
They then went to the email bit where they read out the viewers comments. After stating that the views were fairly evenly split All the emails were anti ‘safety’ cameras???
They then went on to say that the budget for this area of ‘policing’ had been cut from £76 million to £50 million leading to some local authorities, such as Devon & Cornwall to question the viability of these units.
Is this the beginning of the end of ‘safety’ cameras?
Don't get me wrong, I think they probably do work to some extent but I think the places they do are pretty few and far between. The current use of them is nothing more than revenue raising in the vast majority of cases.
I like sabotaging the cameras near home.
The bit I like most was the woman from the scamera partnership who prattled on about increased accidents when it was obvious that what she was worried about was her P45.
The initial arguments by my fellow law breakers at the course was " Speed cameras are mainly to generate cash".
At anyone time only one quater of speed cameras will have film loaded and are active. If this was a money making operation why would you just operate at 25%.
Speed cameras are mainly installed in areas where there have been x-amount of serious injuries or deaths and should be viewed as big orange tomb stones.
I was snapped outside my childrens primary school (Duel carriageway ). I sat on the fence and took my punishment.
I think as mentioned, in some areas they work but for example, every 200 meters on the M25 is just not cricket.
The speed limit is there for a reason and motorists should be made to respect it in the interests of road safety. Having said that, I agree that speed cameras should never be used primarily as a means of generating cash. Personally if the government want to make money out of motorists they should come down hard on those driving without road tax or insurance - ideally by confiscating their vehicles.
The problems with this are..
- Even if accidents were distributed perfectly randomly, you could still pick out 'blackspots' from normal clustering. Put a speed camera at these 'blackspots' and from sheer randomness, you expect your 'blackspot' to have a normal number of accidents - which looks like the speed camera has an effect. It's called 'reversion to the mean' and it is a statistical artifact. Strangely enough, camera partnerships don't bother correcting for it..
- Fixed cameras need a straight bit of road with enough viability to catch people. Accidents are more common on low visibility bends.
- There is little correlation between strict observance of speed limits and car safety. It is far more dangerous to do 70 on a motorway in heavy rain and fog with dense traffic than 85 on a clear, bright day with little traffic. Driving to the conditions is more important than driving to a number.
- And finally.. average speed cameras in roadworks on motorways are frankly scary. I'd love to see the impact they have on accidents, but surprisingly the data is hard to track down..
Its effectively a matter of taking responsibility for ones actions. Anyone who has insufficient self-control to observe a speed limit has no business complaining about being fined - irrespective of whether the purpose of the fine is revenue generating or not..
You've only yourself to blame if things go wrong for you.
The problem is that the speed limit cannot be set by someone who knows the current actual road conditons or the capibility of the car or driver.
I hate speed cameras with a passion but I've got no problem with average speed checks. What's your issue with them?
With speed cameras people just slow down and speed up when passing them. I think the Average speed check cameras really do deter speeding. They are often used during long strecthes of roadworks. This protects the workforce and other road users especially when using contraflow.
It will be highly unlikely that I will ever be caught by these as I feel compelled to stay within said limits. I have no issues with these at all but would object if they covered every single road in the uk.
... and generally the driver doesn't know those things either.
Generally the fact that it takes a fair amount of concentration to remain at an exact speed for an extended length of time, and since everyone is doing the same speed you can get very unpleasantly boxed in. If someone could point me to the numbers showing significantly reduced accidents as a result, of course, I'd stop whinging..
The speed cameras are there to promote the safety of pedestrians, not cars. Most speed cameras are located in areas where cars and pedestrians mix (ie not on motorways) and there is a very clear correlation between pedestrian survival rates and the speed of the vehicle that hit them. In many cases the collision is entirely the pedestrian's fault (such as a child running out into the road) and even the most alert and competent driver may not be able to avoid them, irrespective of their speed. The vehicle's speed is incidental to the accident but entirely relevant to whether the accident is fatal or not.
The speed limits on the motorways are there to protect workmen repairing the road (which seems entirely reasonable to me) and to regulate the flow of traffic. It is the constant accelerating and decelerating of vehicles that cause many traffic jams - along with the rubbernecking of mangled wreckage left by over-confident drivers. Sometimes the faster everyone tries to drive the longer it takes for them to get where they're going. I know the UK is never going to be like Switzerland but there everyone drives at the same speed and I've never encountered a motorway traffic jam. The Swiss enforce their motoring regulations with eye-watering fines that make our speed cameras look like a slap on the wrist.
Personally id rather have speed humps outlawed. At least you know where you stand Scameras - although i will admit many are in places with nothing other than revenues in mind. But with speed humps you never know just how severe they are. Some (in a 30mph i might add) you only need slow down to 20mph, some 10mph, some walking speed. Surely the aim should be to keep you under 30mph, not to get down to walking speed. Numerous times ive damaged my car because theyll put one pretty tame hump first, then the next one will be many times worse, but look the same. I dont have a low profile car or anything, so id guess many have had this happen.
Either get rid of speed humps or mandate a specific design so we know what to expect.
So you are OK with the government setting arbitrary limits on people's behavior and fining them for breaches, when there is no evidence that setting this limit improves the general good?
The problem here is that if people say 'They are there to improve safety' then they have a duty to demonstrate that safety is improved; if you are saying 'They are there to enforce an arbitrary rule' then I think that many people would have a philosophical problem with that.
Yes, but the question I'm asking is 'Do speed cameras actually protect workmen/pedestrians'?
You are assuming this to be the case. Yet I have never seen the stats that would back it up.
Speed humps are there encourage the use of off-road vehicles, in areas where you didn't need them before!
A recent road safety advert spells it out. 80% of children are killed when hit by a car travelling at 40mph. This figure falls to 20% if the car is travelling at 30mph. Even if speed cameras do not reduce the number of accidents a small reduction in vehicle speed can dramatically reduce pedestrian fatalities.
That's not answering the question, though.
10% of all road users are said to have no insurance so if you do survive a collision as a predestrian you then stand a one in 10 chance of not being able to claim compensation if you have genuine life changing injuries. On the news last night.
au contriare. I have a problem with people whinging about the fines being a tax, revenue generating, unfair etc.
If people believe speed limits are an unnecesary/arbitrary limit on thier behaviour they can, and should, campaign for speed limits to be abolished or reformed. When the complaints instead focus on the method of enforcement it leads me to suspect they might be self-serving rather than principled.
IMO any argument that amounts to 'people ought to do X but I should be free to get away with it' has no merit, and it seems to me lots of the complaints about speed cameras fall into this category..
I feel your pain! I've had vehicles which are a bit on the low side! Tends to be the older vehicles. Modern ones are high and egg-shaped, or a truck shaped!
The driver will have more of an idea than some PS worker sitting in an office counting his days to his pension.
Yes speed humps are barbaric. As you say either get rid of them or a specific design, far too much variation. | 2019-04-23T08:56:14 | https://www.housepricecrash.co.uk/forum/index.php?/topic/147723-death-of-the-speed-camera/ |

1 Remind them to be subject to rulers and authorities, to obey, to be ready for every good work, 2 to speak evil of no one, to be peaceable, gentle, showing all humility to all men. 3 For we ourselves were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful and hating one another. 4 But when the kindness and the love of God our Savior toward man appeared, 5 not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, 6 whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
9 But avoid foolish disputes, genealogies, contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and useless. 10 Reject a divisive man after the first and second admonition, 11 knowing that such a person is warped and sinning, being self-condemned.
12 When I send Artemas to you, or Tychicus, be diligent to come to me at Nicopolis, for I have decided to spend the winter there. 13 Send Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their journey with haste, that they may lack nothing. 14 And let our people also learn to maintain good works, to meet urgent needs, that they may not be unfruitful.
15 All who are with me greet you. Greet those who love us in the faith. | 2019-04-23T02:58:40 | http://www.messageofchange.com/lessons/Titus/titus3.asp |
MUMBAI (Reuters) - Foxconn Technology is in talks to manufacture Apple’s iPhone in India, government officials said, in a move that could lower prices in the world’s No.3 smartphone market where the U.S. firm trails Samsung Electronics and local players.
India could help Foxconn mitigate accelerating wage inflation in China, where it makes the majority of iPhones, and base production sites closer to markets where its key clients want to grow.
Lower production costs could also help Foxconn keep hold of Apple orders amid intensifying competition with nimble manufacturing rivals such as Quanta Computer Inc.
“Foxconn is sending a delegation of their officers to scout for locations in a month’s time,” Subhash Desai, Industries Minister of India’s western state Maharashtra, told Reuters.
Foxconn has said it is aiming to develop 10-12 facilities in India, including factories and data centers, by 2020, but had given no detail.
The Taiwan-based tech giant, the world’s largest contract maker of electronic products, declined to comment on detailed plans on Thursday, citing commercial sensitivity.
Apple representatives in India did not respond to a request for comment on Thursday.
Apple’s iPhone 6 with 16 GB sells for around 44,000 rupees ($687.82) in India, versus Samsung’s Galaxy S6 with 32 GB which sells for around 40,000 rupees ($625.29).
It has 10 percent market share in India, trailing Samsung and local manufacturers such as Micromax, which dominate the market, according to Counterpoint Research Market Monitor.
A return of Foxconn — which was forced to shut up shop in India last year after client Nokia closed — would be a major victory for India, which badly needs to turn its tech boom into a manufacturing and employment boost.
India, under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, has sought to reboot manufacturing, but the country is yet to rival China, particularly in technology where most factories will likely be assembly units to begin with.
Apple is among the biggest clients for Foxconn — the trade name for Hon Hai Precision Industry Co Ltd — which also makes components for companies such as Xiaomi, Acer and Sony.
“The smartphone boom in India indicates the time is just right to focus on expansion plans and increasing volume in India to a comparable level with the China market in the next five years,” said Sky Li, vice president of phone manufacturer OPPO.
India has the second-highest number of mobile phone accounts behind China. According to networking solutions company Cisco Systems, there will be 650 million smartphones in the country by 2019. The number of tablets will rise 9 percent to 18.7 million by then. | 2019-04-26T08:32:56 | https://www.reuters.com/article/us-foxconn-india/iphone-maker-foxconn-in-talks-to-build-first-apple-plant-in-india-idUSKBN0OR1M720150611 |
What's a Good Headset for Skype?
Whether for pleasure or business, making Internet calls is quite common and Skype has become a popular and effective communication tool. You can get more out of your Internet calls if you choose a good headset for Skype. There are several factors to consider and this guide can help.
A quality headset delivers superior sound, is comfortable to wear and built to last. It should also have the features you want. Price isn’t always indicative of quality.
That’s why it’s a good idea to start your search by deciding what features you want and need. There’s no reason to pay for features you will never use.
Check that the headset is going to work with Skype, your computer and/or whatever device you are going to use for Skype calls. There are some headsets that will indicate if they have been certified by Skype.
You also need to ensure that the headset is compatible with the operating system on the Skype device you are using. Mac users will find there are fewer options than PC users.
Design is not just about looks, but about how the headset works. Look for the latest headset technology such as noise cancellation, dual-mic, multi-connection, auto pairing, digital signal processing, and battery life. These are all features that a Skype user needs to focus on to get the best results from a headset specifically designed for Internet phone calls.
Noise cancellation works on two levels. It cuts down on background noise making it easier for you to hear the caller and the caller to hear you. This helps improve the quality of your conversations and keeps distractions at bay. Dual-mic helps with noise cancellation. With a multi-connection a user can connect to multiple devices. For example, a user can connect to both their phone and computer using the headset with the ability to jump between the two without hesitation.
Auto pairing is important for ease of access with a wireless headset. It saves time by automatically connecting a headset to the device being used. Digital signal processing is most important because it is what keeps an echo from interrupting phone calls.
Another thing to consider is the range of the headset. There are wireless headsets that allow for up to 450 feet or more between the headset and the device. Wired headsets can have different lengths, but will always be a tether between user and device. A wired headset, however, will not have any connection delays that a wireless headset may have.
The ultimate headset for Skype will not be cheap, but, it should last for quite a while. Consider what materials are used to make the headset; are they cheap plastic or a protective titanium covering?
If you are accident prone, check what type of warranty is available. The microphone features are just as important as the speaker when it comes to using Skype.

Luxurious Edwardian villa with stunning views, polished floors, cosy fire and child-friendly garden a short walk from lovely Portmeirion.
If you have any questions or want to enquire about dates, use our form to contact Claire Bookings or see their website for more information.
You approach from the back, down the bumpy track, over the cattle grid… but the glory of the house is the front and the view. Overlooking estuary and hills, this handsome villa sits above the Italianate fantasy village Portmeirion. Hafod Cae Maen was built in 1919 for the botanist who planted the estate’s subtropical woodlands, and it is within easy reach of the village (restaurants, cafés, a deserted beach). The house’s terraced gardens, part-overrun, are heaven for children to hide in, while adults have long lawns and a barbecue for dining. Inside, all is as luxurious as it is possible to be. Edwardian windows and polished oak floors, wood-burners in fireplaces, local art on white walls. Toys, games and DVDs invite children to settle in, there’s a panelled library with an open fire, a hamper waits on the slate worktop, warm towel rails gleam, and bedrooms – heritage colours, seagrass floors – are enticing. The master room flourishes a balcony for sunsets and champagne, and well-behaved pets will be happy to sleep downstairs. Best of all, you could spend two weeks here and leave the car untouched.
Short breaks available. Pets welcome (downstairs only).
Our family stayed here for the first time in June 2017 for a long weekend and family reunion. we completely fell in love with the home and the truly amazing relaxing location and we just couldn't resist returning again this June 2018 for 10 days. Set on a hill overlooking the estuary the panoramic views are simply stunning with beautiful surrounding gardens the peace and quiet is simply bliss. We met Paul the owner this year, truly first class gent and host, he even popped down to the local chemist when one of our guests was feeling a little worse for wear after the parting.
Beautiful house in a very tranquil spot. Had everything you need to keep a toddler happy, and there are lots of places to visit nearby for toddlers and older children. The large garden was very well fenced so it kept our rascally dog in- a bonus! We especially liked having a piano and the big library and log fires, and that it was only a short drive to a great dog walking beach. All in all a lovely holiday home.
Hafod Cae Maen surpassed our (high) expectations. It has so much character and has been lovingly put together to feel like a home from home- but a luxury version. Staying here was a real treat. We loved sunning ourselves in the garden by day and sitting in the cosy library in the evening. Our 4 year old son was thrilled to discover the play cabin in the garden and games in the sitting room, the house has something for everyone! There was loads to do on the doorstep- walks along stunning coastline, Ffestiniog railway and an ice cream in Portmerion! Hope to come again soon!
A beautiful house in a beautiful setting. The house is very well equipped, attention to detail is outstanding, comfortable home from home. The garden is lovely and the views are stunning. Lots to do locally and Portmeirion is only a walk away for cafes or fine dining. The beach is also only a few minutes walk.
Truly stunning property with an impressive exterior and equally beautiful interior. The views were magnificent and utterly uninterrupted. Inside the house we found the spec to be of a high standard with all amenities in check and beautiful furnishings. Our favourite room was the library where we enjoyed a warming log fire after a lovely long walk. Overall we would highly recommend this property and will be returning next year!
The house is absolutely lovely, just the right size, tastefully decorated, with a corner to suit every mood and every time of day. It sits on top of a hill, above Port Merion, with superb views to the coast and to the hills when the weather played ball. The gardens are a child's delight and an adult gardener's unadulterated envy. There was plenty to do up and down the coast. A glass of port in front of a log fire in the panelled lounge made for a perfect evening.
Absolutely perfect country house in an idyllic location. We were a party of eight adults looking for somewhere better than usual to relax for four days and go walking. An excellent blend of original character (Edwardian?) and modern comforts. Very well equipped kitchen (even a coffee machine) with plenty of space and a lovely dining room next door. We barely needed this as the weather allowed us to eat out at the high quality garden table on the front lawn each night. Then as dusk came on - to the cosy sitting room with its log fires and bookshelves worthy of Miss Marple. Fantastic views.
A superb place to stay- a beautiful house in a spectacular location! Wonderful views from the house and garden with so many places to visit locally. The house has everything you could wish for (and more) with lovely extra touches which made it a very special holiday home. We enjoyed relaxing in front of a roaring fire in the library or playing games in the elegant sitting room. With its well appointed kitchen, large dining area, child-friendly garden, very comfortable beds, spotless bathroom and separate shower room, this is a perfect place for a large gathering. Very highly recommended!
It's difficult to put into words how amazing this house is! It's in an area of breathtaking scenery and the house is as comfortable as you could wish for, with every mod con catered for. I went in October but it was extremely cosy and the perfect place to return to after a long walk in the neighbouring countryside or nearby beaches. The house itself is set in extraordinary grounds and although not too far from the local shops and landmarks, it's also nicely isolated so you can relax comfortably and enjoy the peace and quiet. I can guarantee that if you go you'll want to return!
I'm just back from the most amazing holiday in Hafod Cae Maen. The house is just fantastic - it felt just like home (except nicer!); everything you could possibly need was there. Every room was beautifully decorated, the kitchen was amazingly kitted out, the playroom and the outdoor playroom (!) were full of toys and games for children (and adults!) and the garden was the perfect location for the children to explore and run freely. And I can't begin to describe how spectacular the view from the house is. If you have the chance to visit, just GO!
Hafoed Cae Maen is all you could want from a country house - and the photographs don't do it justice. Beautifully decorated, with 5-star bedrooms and bathrooms, the villa is a perfect hide-away retreat in the Snowdonia mountains but yet is also only a short walk into Portmeirion, to the delightful steam railway, and to the coast. I cannot wait to return!
Fabulous house, great location and beautiful views. The whole family including the dog loved the place. The library is something very special and the house has everything you can wish for. a fabulous choice if visiting Portmerion and Snowdonia.
Unbelievable place, been back three times! Remote, in the sense of being well away from everybody/everything, with fabulous views, but a top class home-from-home, convenient for neighbouring local attractions Portmeirion and the Ffestiniog Railway, and peaceful dream beaches on the beautiful estuary below. Wonderfully roomy and well-appointed house, with big rooms (lovely library!) and terrific garden - so restful, so private, great for kids to do their own thing! Loads of parking space, but why use your car when you’ve got everything in the house, or within healthy walking distance?
A beautiful house in an idyllic location. Kids played endless hours of hide and seek in the amazing garden, toys in playhouse all great. Steam train rides another hit, also going to the underground slate mines. Beautiful beaches walking distance from the house. The house itself is very specious, loved the library where we escaped at times from the kids, who were more than happy in the family room with the board games provided.
A ten minute walk through woods to Portmeirion village. A truly unique place where there is plenty to look at and lovely woodland walks. Also two good restaurants and a fantastic ice-cream shop!
Take a picnic and walk through the sub-tropical woodlands of Portmeirion to a deserted beach.
Boston Lodge halt for the Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland narrow-gauge steam railways is ten minutes by footpath. Steam enthusiasts can also book to go on Snowdon Mountain Railway.
Ideal base for walking in the Snowdonia National Park and visiting stunning local beaches including Harlech and Morfa Nevyn.
Adrenaline junkies can experience an extreme zip wire ride or bounce on a gigantic underground trampoline at Llechwedd Slate Caverns while their non-adrenaline junkie friends visit the historic slate mines! | 2019-04-26T07:54:00 | https://www.sawdays.co.uk/britain/wales/gwynedd/hafod-cae-maen/ |
Over the years, SEO has gone through several transformations. Starting from simple keyword targeting through to complex website optimization processes, to the ever-dynamic tactics to optimize content across multiple devices, SEO rules are ever changing.
Nevertheless, the basics like keyword-rich and consistent content, optimized links and meta tags, are still around and other crucial factors like user experience, user interface, customer journey, mobile search, voice search and social media marketing have gained prominence in getting SEO right.
In parallel to these changes, no space has been untouched by AI. In this feature, we delve into how AI is going to impact the future of SEO, with an eye on Google RankBrain’s starring role in this transformation.
As new and intelligent technologies are evolving with AI at their center, SEO is witnessing more readers-centric strategies introduced by Google for better search experiences. For Google, the primary focus is always the ‘user.’ Whether it’s the penalty systems or investing in semantics-savvy AI, Google takes all efforts with the sole purpose of improving content relevance for better search experience.
In 2016, Google launched RankBrain - “a machine-learning algorithm that identifies patterns and buckets data.” In an interview, Google confirmed that along with links and content, RankBrain was the third most important factor in its search ranking algorithm.
What is RankBrain and its role in search?
RankBrain is Google’s one-year-old game-changing machine learning algorithm, which was introduced to augment Hummingbird (Google’s overall search algorithm). Its primary aim is to help identify and interpret the searcher’s intent and to show result pages that don’t necessarily include the keywords that the searcher has used, while still ensuring that the content consists of information related to the query’s category.
RankBrain’s job is to understand the core algorithms existing within Google and applying the best mixture of these algorithms for each type of search result. For example, for specific search results, RankBrain might find META title as the most critical signal, which can lead to a better search experience.

I’ve got a great word for you the next time you play Scrabble. It’s “otosclerosis.” And what is “otosclerosis”? The dictionary says it is hearing loss resulting from hardening of the bones in the inner ear. The “crowd” in today’s Scripture seems to have spiritual otosclerosis resulting from hardening of heart. They hear the very voice of God speaking to them from heaven and think it is thunder!
Last week in the eVotional we looked at Jesus’ warning about protecting ourselves from this kind of hearing loss “Then pay attention to how you listen, for to those who have, more will be given; and from those who do not have, even what they seem to have will be taken away” (Luke 8:18). Jesus is saying that if we do not pay attention to how we listen to God we stand to lose our spiritual hearing. We might end up hearing His voice and mistaking it for thunder.
Knowing the dangers of a loss of spiritual hearing takes us to a crucial story about a young Solomon. It is told in 1 Kings 3 that God appears to Solomon in a dream saying, “Ask what I should give you” (v.5). Before Solomon answers he acknowledges his inadequacy: “I am only a little child; I do not know how to go out or to come in” (v.7). Solomon uses military language here about a king knowing how to lead an army in and of battle. He doesn’t feel up to wearing the mantle of leadership. He recognizes the enormous challenge leading “a great people, so numerous they cannot be counted” (v.8).
So when told by God to ask whatever he wants, Solomon asks God for “an understanding mind” (1 Kings 3:9), as translated in the New Revised Standard Version. The New International Version translates it “a discerning heart”, and the King James renders it “an understanding heart”. But in his Hebrew language Solomon asks God for shema lev, that is, “a hearing heart”. More than anything else, Solomon wants a heart to hear God. He wants to be open and receptive to whatever God wants to say to Him.
God is pleased with Solomon’s request for a hearing heart. The Lord commends Solomon for asking for a hearing heart rather than asking for long life, riches, and defeat of his enemies. God then granted Solomon’s request such that “People came from all the nations to hear the wisdom of Solomon; they came from all the kings of the earth who had heard of his wisdom” (1 Kings 4:34). And the rest is history as Solomon is acclaimed for a wisdom that comes only from hearing God.
Today, in our nation and in our communities, churches, and homes, we are in dire need of people who can hear God. Like Solomon, we are not up to the task before us to renew our churches, transform our homes, and be salt and light in the world. We need to hear from God!
For me personally, hearing God has to begin with repentance. Before any fancy formulas or methods, I need to repent. I need to repent for the many times I have not listened to God speaking — through Scripture, reproof by a friend, sermon, circumstances, prayerful reflection, or, even the heavens declaring God’s glory day and night! God has been speaking and I have not been listening. I must first acknowledge hearing loss, that spiritual otosclerosis has set in. This isn’t easy for me to do, but something I must do! If I am not already listening to what God has said, He has not committed to saying anything more (Luke 8:18).

It’s the main remaining bit of typically the puzzle to help fulfilling the factories aspirations of automating their packaging line. End of Tier, also acknowledged as tertiary packaging, is precisely what them means — end to a packaging lines.

Exclusive: DFI's fabled LANParty motherboard range is no more. Here's the story behind why.
It's teeny, it's tiny, it's DFI's MI P55-T36 mini-ITX motherboard! Performance P55 meets small form factor, and we compare the MI P55-T36 to its full size ATX brothers to see if keeps up with the big boys.
All too often we take for granted how long it takes to make something very personal. Mike Krysztofiak forges his acrylic cube over two years as he manually cuts, sands, drills his masterpiece of LEDs, watercooling and classic style.
DFI's latest LANParty board is built on the 790FX platform for AMD AM3 CPUs is a yellow and black update to the AM2+ M2RSH. Has DFI changed anything underneath to make it a better buy? Or is it in the same mould with the same limitations? Read on to find out.
LANParty OC contest "Project Europa"
We've got photos straight from DFI Taiwan of one of its next generation P55 motherboards.
DFI's 'dark' 790FX motherboard features the latest SB750 southbridge from AMD and promises the usual crazy DFI overclocking and shenanigans. We drop the new Phenom II X4 940 CPU in to see what it's truly capable of.
In a step away from the norm for P45, DFI has made a cute little micro-ATX motherboard that it dubs its "Junior". Except, this JR model still supports CrossFire and has a DFI belly - do good P45 motherboards come in small packages? Let's find out. | 2019-04-18T10:51:56 | https://www.bit-tech.net/company/dfi/ |
Tony Blair gave Kazakhstan’s autocratic president advice on how to manage his image after the slaughter of unarmed civilians protesting against his regime.
In a letter to Nursultan Nazarbayev, obtained by The Telegraph, Mr Blair told the Kazakh president that the deaths of 14 protesters “tragic though they were, should not obscure the enormous progress” his country had made.
Mr Blair, who is paid millions of pounds a year to give advice to Mr Nazarbayev, goes on to suggest key passages to insert into a speech the president was giving at the University of Cambridge, to defend the action.
You know what’s really sad? The night it became clear that Blair was going to be prime minister I was in Trondheim working with a bunch of Labourites and we all went out dancing to celebrate.

An online precision crop protection resource from Adama Agricultural Solutions UK will give arable growers and their agronomy advisers up-to-date advice on how best to protect barley and wheat crops from key disease threats this spring.
The new Precision Crop Protection knowledge hub will carry useful information that has been designed to help arable growers deal effectively and efficiently with the key diseases that affect barley and wheat.
The hub will provide weekly crop management advice and seasonal updates on a range of topics including the prevention and cure of key barley diseases such as rhynchosporium, ramularia and net blotch. It will present the latest industry thoughts on how, when and what to use at the key crop protection timings. A key message will be that growers need to use a diversity of modes of action in their spring spray programmes, not only to provide robust protection against disease threats, but also to prolong the effective life of key SDHIs, azoles and strobilurins, which are under increasing pressure from sensitivity shifts and resistance.
In addition, the hub will focus on the importance of taking an integrated approach to disease management. It will present advice on how to use cultural techniques, disease resistant varieties and the latest disease forecasting tools to reduce the initial risk of infection, and how existing disease stresses can be managed in a sustainable manner. There will also be regular updates and input from Andy Bailey, ADAMA’s fungicide technical specialist, and the Precision Crop Protection spring hub will also provide useful information and video guides from a selection of third-party organisations, agronomists and farmers.

Happy New Year! School/work has finally started again and I am back into my usual routine. I had a lovely two-week vacation from my students where I got to spend some time with my family in Key West and then headed over to the Exumas in the Bahamas with my boyfriend where we stayed on a sailboat, relaxed on the beach, and caught up with some old friends of mine. Not too shabby….
Fresh conch salad, so good!
NYE dinner on the sailboat!
Obviously I really haven’t done much cooking, my kitchen hasn’t even seen me in a couple of weeks! But here I am, once again, to shower you with some new, healthy recipes for the new year and for those new year’s resolutions! I can tell you’re ecstatic!
As you may or may not know, I receive organic veggies bi-weekly from a buying club/co-op called Annie’s Buying Club. Every two weeks I receive a big box of veggies along with a myriad of recipes. It’s great!
In a dutch oven or deep sauce pan over medium heat, pour your olive oil and saute your garlic. Careful not to burn it!
Add the bok choy and cover. Cook the bok choy for about 5 minutes and add the mushrooms. Cook for another 3-5 minutes. You want to wilt the bok choy leaves and make sure the stalks are tender, but still have a light crunch to them.
The Exumas sure were great! Great company, too! | 2019-04-24T08:31:08 | https://thefoodieteacher.wordpress.com/2013/01/09/asian-sesame-shiitake-mushroom-and-bok-choy/ |
IMAGE: Honey bees fed a diet of sunflower pollen show dramatically lower rates of infection by a specific pathogen.
Sunflower pollen is low in protein and some amino acids, so it should not be considered as a standalone meal for bee populations, Irwin said. “But sunflower could be a good addition to a diverse wildflower population for bees,” she said, especially generalists like bumble bees and honey bees.
“We don’t know if sunflower pollen is helping the host bees fight off pathogens or if sunflower pollen does something to the pathogens,” Irwin said. Future research is aimed at figuring this out.
Co-lead author Lynn S. Adler, Jessica Leslie and Evan C. Palmer-Young from the University of Massachusetts Amherst co-authored the paper, as did NC State’s David Tarpy. The study was funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (grants USDA-AFRI 2013-02536 and USDA/CSREES MAS000411), the National Science Foundation (grants NSF-DEB-1258096/1638866, REU supplement NSF DEB-1415507), the N.C.

Houston, Texas (April 27, 2010) – A free workshop for energy executives detailing how to move process improvement closer to the CEO’s office is scheduled for May 24 at the second annual Energy Forum for Process Excellence.
The workshop is a complimentary session within the four-day energy forum produced by iSixSigma Live! and presented by SSA & Company. The conference runs May 24-27 at The St. Regis Houston.
The good news is that many energy companies are utilizing process improvement designed for today’s competitive and complex business environment – they’re applying fewer resources and providing faster results than in years past, with global operations rapidly aligning around a central strategy. The bad news is that most business improvement senior executives are still too far away from the CEO’s office – literally and figuratively – to allow PI to deliver fully on its promise. If process improvement isn’t a core component of a CEO’s strategic plan, then it is under-serving the corporation and its shareholders.
Handpicked Content : Excel Partnership's Six Sigma program drives your organization out of the box to new levels of performance excellence.
In this session, attendees will learn how to embed business improvement more deeply into their company’s overall strategic plan, and what the exponential returns will be for their CEO and corporate shareholders when they do. In reviewing these case studies and processes first-hand, attendees come away with an understanding of the transformational potential of locating process improvement in the corner office (or at least closer than it is today).
If you are interested in attending the four-day Energy Forum, see the complete agenda at: http://live.isixsigma.com/events/forum/houston/2010/agenda.html. The Forum features master class workshops, two days of conference sessions and a half-day of site tours, as well as two networking receptions.
The Energy Forum’s presenting sponsor, SSA & Company (http://www.ssaandco.com), has shown some of the world’s leading corporations how placing process improvement in the strategic plan at the CEO level improves culture, performance, margins and returns. | 2019-04-23T01:57:41 | https://www.isixsigma.com/press-releases/free-workshop-process-improvement-energy-company-professionals-2/ |

Employees have begun driving the use of consumer technology in the workplace—bringing their mobile devices, Web apps, and social networking experience with them from home—but the trend goes even deeper than that. It's a fundamental shift away from IT creating and managing the organization's IT assets to accepting that employees now own significant swaths of technology and will lead the enterprise march to the future. Noted IT thought leader and enterprise strategist Dion Hinchcliffe has watched organizations large and small struggle with this convergence of mobile, social, cloud and big data, and has helped them prevail in their quest to harness it for innovation to transform the way the enterprise does business. Dion will explore the new IT landscape and share his consumerization experiences in the field to set the stage for the CITE 2012 program by showcasing real-world companies that represent the new generation of IT and business.
Don Stockslager, VP of Boarding Tools, Strategy and Support, First Data Corp.
Credit card processor First Data Corp. addressed a pain point with its first mobile development effort for tablet computers: that of on-boarding new customers from the field. Join Don Stockslager as he demonstrates the new user experience for First Data’s sales team and describes the work that went into getting customers up and running 60% faster than before.
The world’s largest biopharma services company, Quintiles, may turn 30 years old in 2012, but it is an organization transformed by technology, one that embodies what a next generation company needs to be. Over the past few years, the 24,000-employee, global firm has completely changed out its IT infrastructure and transformed the way employees work, the way customers engage with the company, and the way the company is advancing its competitive advantage through IT. Join CIO Richard Thomas as he shows you not only what this looks like but how the organization had the vision and the acumen to become a leader in its space, with IT leading the way.
Innovative groups in your organization want to exploit the new tablet form factor and use their smartphones at work—without giving up their favorite personal apps. That means policy, mobile device management (MDM) technology and governance. But with 50 MDM solutions and 10 tablet and smartphone vendors on the market, where do you start? Meet a leading IT architect, who conducted a thorough evaluation of all the options in 2011 before arriving at his recommendations for a 50,000-employee company. In this session, you will get a glimpse into his analysis of the MDM market, discuss the corporate vs. personal ownership model and foster group discussion around what has worked—and what hasn't—in mobile management for both the enterprise and end users.
When it comes to mobile device strategies and policies, one size doesn't fit all. In this interactive panel discussion, hear how a range of organizations with varying needs developed their approach to equipping their workforce with mobile technology while also accommodating requests to put corporate data on personal devices. Use cases include decisions to remain with corporate provisioning; equipping a global workforce in a highly regulated industry and more.
Providing mobile access to enterprise applications is a key part of application strategy today. Yet doing so can have implications from both a licensing and contractual standpoint. Join Microsoft licensing expert Cynthia Farren for a look at key considerations when providing mobile access to Microsoft systems from various devices. She will provide a high level overview of the most common solutions and their implications on your Microsoft agreements and budgets.
What is Gamification, and Why Should It Be on My Enterprise’s Priority List?
Gabe Zichermann, CEO, Gamification Co & Dopamine Inc.
Gamification doesn’t mean Xbox or Angry Birds. It means using game mechanics and features of game design to boost the effectiveness, friendliness and engagement of your digital properties. Never has this been more important than in this era of consumer technologies, where the instant gratification of collecting points, tweeting and friending have become a part of daily life. Join expert Gabe Zichermann as he demonstrates why companies need to understand gamification and how some are already using it to obtain great results with customers and employees alike.
Beer distributor Ben E. Keith’s tablet deployment isn’t just about sales reps conducting store inventory and placing new orders for the dozens of items available. It’s about turning the company into a next-generation business. See the tablet technology that’s driving impressive sales growth and allowing the company to keep up with changing consumer tastes – and retail expectations.
As consumerization overtakes the enterprise, the proliferation of mobile devices threatens to overwhelm the enterprise network. Building a strategy for a network that can meet the exploding needs of users and their devices and software apps while remaining secure is a growing challenge for IT leaders today. This presentation will look at the ways enterprises can shape a strategy for a network that can manage the needs of the consumerization trend without being overloaded and without creating undue risks for the enterprise.
Customers and employees alike are hungry to interact with your business using mobile apps. But how do you decide what apps to build, how to engineer them and where to make them available? This session will show you how to approach the prospect of mobile apps and how to proceed with a secure, business-savvy strategy.
Roman Benko, Associate Director, Systems Development, CME Group, Inc.
Frank Fieseler, Associate Director, CME Group Inc.
CME Group is the world’s leading derivatives marketplace, formed by the combination of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, the Chicago Board of Trade and the New York Mercantile Exchange. It is well under way with a tablet deployment for its auditors, who need enterprise-level performance, security and access to company resources. Come see its custom-designed mobile apps, which pull data and logic from legacy applications, and learn all about its deployment of ASUS Windows-based slates.
As the consumerization trend marches onward in IT, more and more end users are choosing their own software apps in lieu of using the IT sanctioned business tools. This is increasingly happening for online file sharing and collaboration applications as users tackle issues like shared data, data portability, and end point device access. This is creating a conundrum for IT as it balances business enablement, end user ease of access, and collaborative capabilities with the need to maintain control and security of information assets. This presentation will look at the on line file storage and collaboration landscape and available solutions.
It's no longer a Blackberry world in corporate America. But it’s not an iPhone- or iPad-only world either. When it comes to deploying corporate devices, how do you choose which smartphones and tablets to issue? What’s better for information input vs. consumption alone? What criteria should you use in navigating the many offerings? This panel of practitioners has been down this path and will share their experience in assessing a market where Android, Microsoft and many device manufacturers have joined the mobile landscape.
What criteria should your team look at when considering a corporate device rollout? In this workshop, the group will work in teams to break down the question of what kind of tablets or other handhelds will provide the features, security, interoperability, ruggedness and other factors that make for a wise corporate investment in 2012. Then we’ll regroup to see what everyone came up with. Don’t miss this chance to compare your thinking with that of your peers for this important purchasing decision.
In this workshop, the room will break out into teams charged with developing a BYOD policy. Each group will compile a list of terms it considers essential to allowing company employees to access corporate email and/or applications and data on their personal devices. Each group will then report in on their findings, for an important discussion on the best ways to assess risk, scope policies and win acceptance among users.
Have you ever faked a restroom trip to check your email? Slept with your laptop? Or become so overwhelmed that you just unplugged from it all? In this funny, eye-opening, and inspiring film, Director Tiffany Shlain takes audiences on an exhilarating rollercoaster ride to discover what it means to be connected in the 21st century. From founding The Webby Awards to being a passionate advocate for The National Day of Unplugging, Shlain’s love/hate relationship with technology serves as the springboard for a thrilling exploration of modern life…and our interconnected future. A personal film with universal relevance, Connected explores how, after centuries of declaring our independence, it may be time for us to declare our interdependence instead.
Consumer social media tools such as Twitter and Facebook have become the place to see and be seen for B2B and B2C companies alike. They’re also top destinations for social listening – keeping abreast of what customers, analysts and others are saying about your company or product. Come hear the latest innovations and best practices for using these channels to shape your business, corner the competition and connect with the right stakeholders.
The CMO and CIO: Friends or Foes in Consumerization?
IT and Marketing are the new partners in a consumerized enterprise. Smartphone apps and social CRM and fall into both their domains. But what Marketing thinks is a simple request, IT knows involves data, storage and policy—and needs a little ramp-up time. Join top executives on each side of the fence as they discuss their perspective and how they have built a partnership that meets the business’ needs for agility - but also risk and information management.
Companies at the forefront of creating compelling consumer applications are often not ready for the impact these same applications and devices have inside the business. Sesame Workshop, the producer of Sesame Street, had developed for the iPhone, iPad, Android, XBOX Kinect and other platforms, and had leveraged social media among its customers. Yet it wasn't prepared to exploit these types of consumerization inside the enterprise and was overwhelmed by demand. Learn how Sesame got control of consumerization and established a pipeline of new initiatives to keep the ideas and consumer energy flowing.
Lilly’s social business story is one of emergence. The emergence of people passionate about working in new ways, the emergence of new social capabilities putting the people’s expertise and passion on display, and the emergence of real business problems being approached in ways never imagined. It’s not a story about a social platform, it’s a story about Lilly’s people entering the stage to become the platform by which knowledge and expertise come to life. Bryce Williams will share a few business success stories that owe their outcomes to social business emerging at Lilly.
Distribution of iPads at a corporate executive meeting focused IT on the customer desire for increased endpoint diversity at Yum! Brands, the world's largest restaurant company with over 38,000 KFC, Pizza Hut and Taco Bell restaurants in more than 110 countries and territories. Despite a mature IT infrastructure securely managing multiple devices and platforms, IT leadership set its sights on "any application on any device, anywhere," for both employees and franchisees. In this session, two IT leaders from Yum will share their progress on their consumerization of IT and move to a mixed IT environment, including what's worked, what hasn't and what they wish they'd known going in.
Many organizations launch a social initiative or platform with a big bang and high hopes for employee engagement and innovation – only to watch adoption trail off after the excitement wears off. But failure can be the best teacher. Join our practitioner speakers for a look at what went wrong in their deployments and how they plan to employ lessons learned in future rollouts.
Learn how B2B and B2C companies alike are using the latest public social media tools to achieve business goals and deliver on their mission.
No industry serves more consumers than health care. So when insurer CareFirst launched two programs aimed at improving health outcomes, it built them in a consumer-friendly way based on technology-enabled communication, collaboration and engagement – for use by members, physicians and staff. Using a range of the latest technologies, including unified communication, rich web interaction and information sharing, it rolled out Primary Care Medical Home (PCMH) and Healthy Blue with great success. Come learn how the organization built programs requiring and incentivizing behavior change on both sides of the firewall, with sustained participation by more than 4,500 doctors and close to a million patients.
Don't miss this discussion with some of the Valley's best known venture capitalists as they reveal what's in the pipeline for consumer IT and what that means for your enterprise strategy.
Social Business Isn’t Rocket Science – Or Is It?
ExplorNet - NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center's enterprise social technology platform - has experienced successes and failures, and Kevin D. Jones has seen them all. Join Kevin as he shares lessons learned in the social deployment involving administrators, rocket scientists and others in the 7,500-employee space center. You’ll learn what was adopted, what wasn’t and why. He’ll also show a framework to predict the rate of adoption for these type of projects.
Lost in the discussions about technology is the issue of human capital and organizational change. What allows the IT organization to transition from an IT-driven technology services platform to a consumer/employee-driven suite of offerings? Attend this presentation, led by an award-winning former CIO, to learn the necessary steps to prepare the IT workforce to make the transition to these new modalities and offerings.
Following the keynote of the same name, we’ll invite some additional speakers to the stage for a conference-wide dialogue on the organizational challenges wrought by consumerization. From changing employee expectations to shifting roles, business processes and more, we’ll tackle the real issues of managing change across a multi-generational workforce and fast-changing technology. | 2019-04-22T22:14:48 | http://www.citeconference.com/ehome/CITE2012/sessions |

Edward West, a retired international civil servant living in a village in the west of England, is the central character in a novel about Alex von Kierich, hero of the failed 1944 attempt on Hitler’s life and now living quietly in northern Germany. For much of the time, von Kierich is ‘the man who isn’t there’, but his presence is rarely far away, rather like one of those planets that astronomers cannot see but know exists because of its effect on other, visible, heavenly bodies.
Sometimes he speaks of the tragedy of 1944, the failure of the plot to kill Hitler, his arrest and incredible good fortune in not being strung up like so many of the others in Plotzensee Prison. That crushed part of his right hand shows the torture he had to endure during interrogation.
After Germany’s defeat, von Kierich was put in charge of a quintessentially worthy post-war institution, an aid/development agency called the Survey, based in Washington with West on his staff, ‘rather like a private secretary or close confidential aide’. West and his wife Jane, along with von Kierich, palled up with two other ex-pats, British military man Martin Riley and his wife Nancy, and enjoyed life in the American capital.
Some days I look at the photographs I have here of our time together when we were in Washington and doing such important work. They remind me of happy times, and this is also why I am writing as it would be tragic to lose oneself in bad memories and forget about so much that was good as well.
The ‘bad memories’ in question refer to the unravelling of von Kierich’s career at the Survey. From old copies of The Times, it emerges that, initially, various governments were rumoured to have threatened to withdraw support from The Survey unless he resigned.
Questions were to be asked in the House of Commons. Was it a plot led by the United States and its allies to get rid of someone who often had harsh words for the way the rich countries ignored the needs of what Dr von Kierich called ‘the South’?
He duly resigned, but matters took a more sinister turn, as the press reported.
The article mentions several strange gaps in the history of von Kierich’s war which may be behind his departure. The report says that friends of von Kierich and members of the Survey’s staff believed these new suspicions were a plot themselves: lies concocted by enemies to get rid of him. His part in the 1944 conspiracy against Hitler was well-known, as was his opposition to the Nazis.
Von Kierich was hired as consultant to an international trading company based in Munich, but his problems did not go away.
On subsequent days, The Times reports further rumours from Washington. Then the question of von Kierich’s involvement in wartime atrocities in eastern Europe is raised openly for the first time.
Jewish investigators turned the case over but found no evidence of von Kierich having been complicit in war crimes. The German magazine Der Spiegel, however, publishes a report written and signed by von Kierich after a visit to the Russian front.
In 1942, von Kierich had apparently travelled by air to a remote district of the Ukraine with an officer of the SS. Der Spiegel had a photograph of his signature on the report of the trip. The place described had been the scene of a series of notorious massacres at that time.
Von Kierich had answered the accusation … He had been sent to the eastern front by his superiors in the Foreign Office, who had wished to find out the truth behind rumours … Von Kierich’s mission was to separate truth from lies. That was why he had gone, to return in disgust and horror.
Spoiler alert – his account of events was accurate and he was probably right to suspect the hand of the US in the spate of allegations. But to no avail – we learn from a later edition of The Times that von Kierich ‘has left his job in Munich, insisting that his resignation is not an admission of guilt. Recent protests and a vicious campaign against him had made work impossible’.
His career destroyed, von Kierich retreated to his small town in northern Germany and worked as a tour guide. In the English village, where West, now widowed, lives alongside Martin and Nancy Riley, von Kierich seems something of an embarrassment, other than to West himself.
Edward West says the words loudly to defeat any possible interruption.
Martin Riley takes a different view.
West flies to Germany to visit von Kierich for what will probably be the last time, taking with him Rose Finch, undergraduate daughter of a local landowner. The visit is far from an unalloyed success, but West and Rose sleep together in what West assumes is a doomed May-to-December fling.
Back in the village, West receives a letter from von Kierich thanking him for the visit and offering advice.
[F]orgive me for saying that you should be careful with Rose … Remember what we used to say: the most important thing is not to hurt people. This lay at the back of our work together, I like to think.
Please go forward now. I have my life, as you have seen … For you there is more time. Use it well. Goodbye.
The narrative ends with West heading off to Scotland to find Rose at her university. We wish him well in his quest for what he hopes will be the second spring of the title.
Haunting but never melancholic, this is a wonderful book, and the perspective of reading it in 2019 adds a layer to its elegiac structure that would not have been apparent in 1993. Nobody uses a mobile phone, although the service had been in operation for eight years, or a computer, although we would have been less than two years away from the madcap flotation of Netscape shares and the launch of Windows 95.
There are times when the day before yesterday can seem more impossibly far back in time than do centuries past. The experience of reading Second Spring is one of them.

On Jan. 12, detectives in Montgomery County received a video depicting a 65-year-old day-care operator interacting with a 2-year-old girl. By the end of the day, the operator, Christina Dhanaraj, was under arrest and charged with second-degree child abuse, officials said Tuesday.
In arrest records, detectives described what they saw.
"The video starts with the victim sitting quietly in a room inside a residence," they wrote, relating then that the suspect walked up and scolded the child. "Dhanaraj then proceeds to deliver approximately eight open-hand slaps to the victim's face. While she was being repeatedly and violently slapped, the victim was loudly crying."
Dhanaraj, who is free on bond, could not be reached for comment Tuesday. Her attorney, Patrick Hanifin, declined to discuss the specific police allegations. "Our team is still investigating the matter in its entirety," Hanifin said. "Ms. Dhanaraj has the full support of her husband and two adult children."
Dhanaraj has been operating the day-care facility out of her Silver Spring home for about 10 years and was licensed to have up to eight children there, according to county and state records.
Police said they are not identifying the person who shot the video, which may have been taken in November or December, because the person is a witness.
Detectives spoke with the girl's parents after receiving the video. "There were no apparent injuries that the parents remembered seeing," said Sgt. Rebecca Innocenti, a county police spokeswoman.
In the video, according to arrest records, Dhanaraj also can be seen shoving the victim to the floor while she was still crying, grabbing her by the head and jerking her body.
Officials at the Maryland Office of Child Care (OCC), who were shown the video by police, issued an emergency suspension of the facility. In a letter to Dhanaraj, an OCC official wrote that "you seemed to be upset that the child soiled her diaper" and yelled at the child for doing so.
The Office of Child Care had no history of complaints or reported problems with the day care before this case, according to regulators.
On Aug. 23, 2006, Dhanaraj was issued an "initial family child care registration certificate to operate" out of the Winding Waye Lane home. Of the capacity for eight children, she was authorized to have two under the age of 2. Eventually, the operation was permitted to accommodate four under the age of 2.
In their suspension letter to Dhanaraj, regulators reviewed her licensing history and listed several recent problems.
On Jan. 12, according to the letter, two day-care licensing specialists went to Dhanaraj's home with Montgomery detectives. They noted 14 compliance issues, including a lack of attendance records before January, missing barriers on several stairs, and cleaning agents and kitchen knives in drawers and cabinets children could reach.
The letter also cited the video and Dhanaraj's arrest.
"You must close your family child care home immediately," the letter stated. | 2019-04-19T07:48:32 | https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/public-safety/day-care-operator-charged-with-slapping-2-year-old-girl-eight-times-over-soiled-diaper/2018/01/23/83b03ece-0061-11e8-8acf-ad2991367d9d_story.html |

The active ingredient in Hübner’s ImmunPRO Infection Blocker, has been shown to create a physical barrier in the mouth and throat against viruses.Cistus villosus is naturally rich in tannins (polyphenols), which, due to their large molecular structure, are not reabsorbed, but instead form a protective film that prevents viruses from penetrating the mucous membrane of the mouth preventing a virus docking with host cells.ImmunPRO Infection Blocker tablets when dissolved in the mouth create a physical barrier in the mouth and start to work immediately as a preventative or at the very onset of illness, such as the first scratching signs of a sore throat. A particular benefit of the product is that because it works on a physical level there is no possibility of a virus mutation creating resistance which is typical with antibiotics overuse.They are ideal for use during the colder seasons of the year, before and during typical flu periods and of course when travelling by plane, train or underground, where close contact with other people is unavoidable.
Active ingredient- 1 lozenge contains 73.5 mg Cistus Villosus extract with 50mg polyphenols. - Isomalt, cellulose, xylite, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, gum arabic, magnesium stearate, silicon dioxide, Acesulfam K, natural flavours, modified starch. | 2019-04-25T04:54:55 | http://www.beanfreaks.com/95039/Hubner-ImmunPRO-Infection-Blocker-30-tablet/ |

This week's trip through New England takes us to Maine and arguably it's most famous attraction, Acadia National Park. Acadia is the only national park located in the northeastern US and is a very popular tourist destination. The Maine coastline is extremely rugged and Acadia contains some of the most breathtaking scenes on the Atlantic Ocean. As I was setting up the shot on Otter Beach, I could hear the crashing waves on the rocky beach and knew I was in a race before the clouds moving east would extinguish the beautiful warm glow of the rising sun. I was able to take this long exposure image as the light from the rising sun was still hitting the adjacent cliffs. It was a very short time after this shot that the clouds covered the golden light for good. | 2019-04-21T00:11:06 | https://www.lensaltiel.com/blog/rugged-coast |

How To Have a Dental Crown In Just One Visit!
CEREC® in Arizona is an acronym that stands for Chairside Economical Restorations Esthetic Ceramic. This technology utilizes 3-D CAD/CAM software to fabricate your ideal tooth restoration in minutes, creating high quality dental ceramic crowns, fillings, and veneers.
Why Does the Same Day Dentist Use CEREC®?
• CEREC® allows our cosmetic dentist to easily craft several fillings or crowns in one session. This is especially helpful for patients who have multiple problem teeth or patients who feel a great deal of anxiety when visiting the dentist. In both cases, our patients appreciate having to schedule fewer trips to the dentist.
• Temporary crowns can be uncomfortable and some may not adhere properly because they are meant to be easily removed. With this technology, there is no need for temporary crowns or the additional visits for placement. Your dental crowns can be performed in just one (1) convenient appointment with our same day dentist.
Our same day dentist will prepare your tooth for the filling or crown much like he would in any other procedure, but instead of taking impressions of your teeth, he takes an optical impression by taking a digital picture of your tooth after applying a unique powder. This optical impression is then converted in to a 3-D image that Dr. Chang can manipulate to design your restoration.

Mini-b's sprint motor nearly done.
Its amazing that this beautiful casting was hiding underneath all those fins. It was not easy to dig it out but it was worth it, adds a real knuckle head feel to it.
With the motor coming out so nice, its making me question the street tracker decision.
Still plenty of time to go back b, what do you think?
I like the street tracker look but was never in love with it. Seeing as how that's what the fans wanted and being at a loss for another design, I figured let's do it. I'm up for anything because no mater what we do, it'll be Bitchin! | 2019-04-23T01:56:37 | http://www.rasmotodetroit.com/2012/02/mini-bs-sprint-motor-nearly-done.html |

London is one of the most historical cities you will ever visit and being the history buff that I am, I need to know the stories behind each buildings, alleyways and all the other iconic places around the city. The more obscure it is, the better. I guess I’m nosy like that.
I came across Hidden London Tour while I was looking for unique tours in London which promised a journey into the depths of the old City to discover the more extraordinary stories and locations which are often overlooked. I was hooked right away, I always love exploring off-the-tourist tracks and the best way to do it is to have a knowledgeable guide with you.
On the day of the tour, I met our tour guide Matt at 1:30pm in front of Temple Street tube station. We were a total of 10 in the group including two other bloggers who I dragged along with me (Hello Katy and Angela). The size wasn’t that big and also not that small, an ideal group tour size so it won’t feel too crowded and also not boring.
During the tour, we discovered an authentic hansom cab shelter which offered cheap refreshments and a place to take a break for hansom cab drivers during the 18th century. When I passed by it on my way to the Temple Tube station, I thought it was a garden shed. Makes sense really because there was a garden nearby but this is the reason why I love taking tours like this, you discover the real purpose of things around you.
We also discovered a closed underground station which served as a bomb shelter during WWII for civilians and also to protect some of British Museum artifacts including the Elgin marbles. “Don’t tell the Greeks!” said one of the men in our group, good thing The Greek Mister wasn’t with me during this tour. Lol.
We also saw a Roman bath in the middle of the city which turned out to be NOT a Roman bath, we passed by beautiful courtyards which I wouldn’t have known to be accessible to the public if not for this tour, we saw the church which inspired the wedding cake, we saw one of the remaining buildings which endured the bombings of the war and shows its painful past through its cracked and uneven walls and from the same building, I learned how gruesome children’s songs really are.
My favorite discovery of all is Sweeney Todd’s barbershop. It wasn’t the barbershop itself which is my favorite, it was how our tour guide delivered the story – giving us a chance to decide whether or not Sweeney Todd is real or a fictional character. Having said that, our tour guide Matt was absolutely wonderful. I love how he shared his own personal opinion about each places we visited apart from his knowledge of it. He was very informative and kept the group interested throughout the tour.
If you’re not into history or not really interested in discovering off-the-tourist tracks of London, this tour isn’t for you but if you’re like me who’d like to learn stories which makes London more interesting than it already is, it’s a highly recommended tour. Hidden London Tour does deliver to its promise and probably even more.
I am on a hunt for other interesting and unique London tours, the Churchill War Rooms might be the next place I’d explore.
Have you found Clink Street? Coming from the land down under, any reference to the last home on English soil of the many convicts, Clink Street is vitally interesting. Then Vine St and Carnaby Street were interesting. Love your story telling and the photos are smashing!
Thank you Erin. I understand, teenagers might be a bit bored with this kind of tour. They’re the toughest audience. Lol.
I need to watch the Harry Potter movies first before doing that tour, I never watched any of those. I know, sad. Lol.
I have been to London three times and didn’t realise all this hidden history! I think I got lost in the markets and shopping! Can’t believe there was a bomb shelter there for WWII! Wish I had this guide for when I went! The Sweeney Todd barbershop would have been interesting!
Shopping is a good distraction. Lol.
There should be one in Edinburgh, I bet there are a lot of hidden gems around that place.
I agree with you, a group tour shouldn’t be too big or too small. If its is a guided tour, the best thing that can happen is having a not only a knowledgeable tour guide but an interesting one too! Nice trip you had there. The medieval buildings .
I love interesting tours like this one! You learn so much more than you would just exploring on your own. Once, I took a “Jack the Ripper” tour in London and it was great fun, too. Thanks for sharing! I’m going to pass it along.
What a great idea of a tour! I have explored the Temple area not long ago and noticed those Roman Baths myself, I had no idea that they are actually not what they seem to be. I would love to see Sweeney’s Todd barbershop, I remember the movie and the creepy London atmosphere surrounding his shop. I love the idea of out of the box tours especially in London, which has so many amazing hidden spots.
Lol. Having a roman bath when you’re technically not having a roman bath. Lol. Sounds about right.
How interesting! This would be such a fun way to discover London and some of its hidden gems. So what was your conclusion in the end – is Sweeney Todd real or fictional?
These are great pictures, I love walking tours as they allow you to see so much during the walk. The only thing I don’t like though is the fact that I don’t have the time I always need.
I love history and I love discovering off the beaten path places, so this tour would be perfect for me! I’m going back to London in March and was just trying to figure out what else there is to see, and this would be the perfect tour to go on. I wonder if this tour company hosts these tours in other cities as well because I’m sure a lot of major cities have some interesting history that I don’t know about.
I love tours like this because you’ll learn things that guidebooks just can’t teach you!
Hahhhahahah was I very obvious?
When I was assigned to work in London a couple of years ago, I passed by a “Jack the Ripper” tour. Was intrigued but didn’t have the time to do it – there’s always something to do in London! It is nice to find hidden travel gems in each city. Makes you appreciate the place a lot more, especially if you are a local, apart from the touristy destinations!
This is so good and helpful! I will be in London this December and refer to this.
Just read Angela’s post. Interesting to read about how you both experienced the tour (from your reviews it seems that you both liked it a lot). PS: What’s that thing about Mummy Travels?
Yes it was really informative. I’m taking another tour with them this Saturday and hopefully I’d be able to take all of their tours in the future.
Wonderful! I’ve started adding guided tours to my trips because they can offer a bit of extra history and trivia that I wouldn’t otherwise know about the area. How fun!
Love this! I live in Scotland and I take a lot of trips down to London for work. I usually try to make the most of those visits because I love to explore, but I’m starting to run out of things to do (as a tourist anyway). I may try this out!
I lived in London for three wonderful years and they def took you on a great tour! There’s so many fantastic hidden gems in the city, especially when it comes to history and such. I’m glad you had a great time, your photographs are lovely!
Living there now you will get all the opportunities to scratch beneath the surface that most visitors only get to when they see London. No foodie trip post yet?
I do love walking tours – and what a wonderfully eclectic selection of facts this one had! I knew about the taxi cafes, but I didn;t know that an actual church inspired wedding cakes! Where was that?
Wandering around London finding hidden stuff is one of my favourite things to do! | 2019-04-21T20:06:57 | http://pinayflyinghigh.com/hidden-london-tour/ |

First of all, you need to know how to set up a good outdoor train system. Outdoor model trains should always be placed in a secure location, and should be as level as possible. You might want to consider adding your outdoor train system to your garden, or designing a garden around your toy train.
You will only need a single track railway, one locomotive and three or four pieces of rolling rock to get started. Dig a trench about two or three inches deep that your train track route will follow. Fill it with sand and set your track in place, then place more sand in the track to make it even with the ground. This will help provide you with a level ground to operate your train system. Now that you’ve got the construction aspect complete, it’s time to choose your outdoor toy train!
The Lionel Silver Bell Express by the Lionel Corporation is a beautiful addition to your outdoor Christmas display. This gorgeous locomotive is sure to be the center of attention at your next holiday party or gathering. The toy trains shimmers in a frosty blue and silver color, and is complete with a musical caboose that plays a pleasant version of “Jingle Bells,” “Silent Night”, and “Santa Clause is Coming to Town”. The Silver Bell Express is controlled by a transformer that allows you to move the locomotive forward or reverse.
Hand-painted detail and realistic decals make this outdoor toy train look like it just came from Santa’s Workshop! The gauge is large scale and 51″ in diameter, making it large enough to complete any outdoor decoration. The Silver Bell Express can be purchased new for around $200 or you could try your luck at an auction to try to snag this beauty for a cheaper price. | 2019-04-23T23:49:34 | https://modeltrain.gtrexpert.com/outdoor-toy-trains-bringing-the-fun-outside/ |

The BK virus is very common and most children will catch it in the same way as a cold. The virus is carried in the body for life but a healthy immune system keeps it inactive and it usually causes no symptoms.
After a kidney transplant, drugs are taken to suppress the immune system and prevent rejection of the new kidney. Because of the suppressed immune system, the BK virus can become active and affect the transplanted kidney. This is known as BK Nephropathy (BKN).
BKN causes inflammation and a fall in kidney function. It can also cause the tube between the kidney and the bladder to narrow (ureteral stenosis). This is less common.
BKN occurs in about 1 in 20 people who have received a kidney transplant. It usually develops between 6 and 12 months after a transplant, but can occur earlier or later.
The BK virus can be controlled with a healthy immune system. Urine and blood tests after transplantation can test for the virus.
If BKN develops after a kidney transplant, the drugs that are normally prescribed to suppress the immune system are likely to be reduced.
For example, tacrolimus may be changed to a similar drug, ciclosporin.
Specific anti-viral agents may also be prescribed, such as cidofovir, ciprofloxacin, leflunomide or intravenous immunoglobulin.
If the virus is detected early, treatment changes may be able to be made before kidney function changes.
My kidneys failed due to nail patella syndrome and I also have diabetes. I had a transplant in August 2015. After some early complications my best creatinine was 120.
In July 2016 I was feeling unwell with flu-like symptoms. My creatinine was 143, then 167. The Consultant told me he was doing a test for BK virus. This was the first time I had heard of this virus. It takes time for the result to come back and when I went back to the transplant clinic I was told the virus level was 10 million. When it was checked again it was 25 million – a big jump.
The MMF was reduced and stopped. I started leflunomide. My Consultant told me this was anti-viral and would also suppress my immune system, but on balance the virus level should reduce. I then started ciprofloxacin. The virus count was still very high and it was decided that the leflunomide was not doing its job.
I had high dose IVIg in February 2017. The first dose gave me a splitting headache. The second dose was better because I took paracetamol beforehand and knew what to expect.
In April 2017 I started cidofovir. Before then my creatinine was hovering between 180 and 190, but it shot up to 260 then 340. I stopped cidofovir after about 5 doses. I had a biopsy which showed there was BK virus in the kidney but there was no rejection.
So it was back to the drawing board. I started low dose IVIg and the tacrolimus was changed to ciclosporin. To begin with I had IVIg every week, then every two weeks, then every three. It’s now every four weeks.
It took a while but the virus started coming down. I don’t know if this is due to the IVIg or ciclosporin. A couple of weeks ago was the best result ever, a few thousand.
My kidney function is getting worse. I’m prepared for another transplant but I don’t know how that would go. I am prepared to go back on dialysis and I’ve looked at the possibility of the tube going back in or having a fistula. The GFR is hovering around 18 so I’m just holding off.
I’m feeling OK. I’m able to do routine things most days. I walk and use the exercise bike, and my diabetes is under control. I don’t know how long the GFR will hold on at the current level. The future? I don’t know.
It is not currently known why some people are more likely to develop BKN than others. It may be due to some donor kidneys containing more virus than others, changes in the virus that make it more likely to cause disease, tissue type matching between the donor and recipient or other genetic factors in the recipient.
The BKN Rare Disease Group (RDG) is registering patients in the National Rare Kidney Disease Registry (RaDaR). The registry will be used to gather evidence to write guidelines for the recommended treatment for patients with BKN. It will also be used to find out how effective current treatments are and to identify suitable participants for future research studies of risk factors and new treatments. If you are interested in finding out more about RaDaR or the activity of the RDG please visit the BK Nephropathy RDG page.
The results of a survey on the management of the BK virus by UK transplant units will be available shortly. | 2019-04-19T18:14:14 | https://rarerenal.org/patient-information/bk-nephropathy-patient-information/ |
My mother, my father and I – basically my entire family – have become amateur photographers. We didn’t take a huge amount of pictures in the Polaroid era, but now that all our phones have cameras, we’re hooked.
But just because we’re talking a lot of pictures doesn’t mean we’re all good at it. That’s what makes the new Krome Photos service so compelling – it offers professional editing of your photos, which you can download and/or use to create prints and gifts. Don't have an iOS device? You can use the .
Here’s how the service works. Download the free iOS-only Krome app from iTunes or browse to the Krome Photo site. Then choose the shots in your Photo Roll or on your computer that you want to send in for editing.
All retouching is handled by real people – nothing is automated. Basic color-enhancing, cropping, red-eye removal, exposure compensation, sharpening and noise reduction cost $4.99 per photo. The most advanced level of retouching runs $9.99 per photo, offering the removal of skin blemishes, swapping backgrounds, the removal of people or objects – you tell them what to do, and they do it. The least expensive option, the color-enhancing Krome Treatment, runs 10 cents per photo. Photo gifts like framed prints are also available.
Krome is currently offering new customers $10.00 in free credit when they use the iOS app, so you can try the service out for free. To learn more about Krome, visit the company’s website or check out the promotional video below.
I am writing on behalf of the editors who have worked a long time in company Krome photo. We saw all the work from the inside and I want to tell you the truth and warn you!!!
The company positions itself as professionals in retouching personal photos but it’s not like that. For the most part, the company employs low-skilled editors from Pakistan of Bangladesh and India (all editors freelancers).
It is necessary in order to not pay money to good editors, not hire good and professional editors, as a result, you get horrible edited images. There are a lot of complaints from customers they are not happy and ask for money back.
But the company will not return the money back to them. They can return intrasystem money and the client again makes an order or asks for redit and again gets a poorly edited image.
The purpose of the company is to take your money, hire a cheap and low-skilled editors and they would edit images.
With every day of orders, fewer and fewer customers are leaving. Good and experienced editors leave the company themselves or the company’s management fired them for different reasons (no loyalty to the company, work outside the company and other reasons).
Ideal editor for the company - editor loves the company and ready 24 hours a day waiting for the order and this editor does not need to pay money.
I, as well as several other editors, were dismissed for working outside the company, despite the fact that no contracts that prohibit work outside the company, we did not sign.
The management of the company did not even begin to talk to us, they simply sent out letters of dismissal and closed the accounts in the system. One editor was pregnant girl from Ukraine.
Do you know how much money the editor gets for retouching one of your images? If you paid for editing a personal image $5 -10$ and more the company will pay the editor 0.8$ - 2$. On average, with your payment of $ 7, the editor will be paid $ 1.2.
And now consider what quality you get for $ 1.2 !!!!
1) The company says that keeps secret the personal image of customers and ensures safety but it’s not like that. You can see your personal picture anywhere and especially on personal pages and editors portfolio and also in social networks.
2) Paid App Krome + is a fraud, they mislead people. People think that this is an automatic application and no longer need to pay but they are wrong. The price of the app simply includes a discount and the customer will still pay money again and again.
3) Project managers and support do not work properly with customers. Very often the original image has a poor quality the selected background does not work with the original image but no one will tell you about this. Because the main goal of the company is to take money from the customer and do the job anyhow, no matter the quality of.
I can tell you a lot more about the company Krome but I think that this is enough information to what you have learned the truth. Do not trust this company your photos. Otherwise, lose your money nerves and time.
If you want a beautiful image and creativity is better to find another company with experienced editors where they will communicate with you and give advice how to make your images beautiful. This kind of creativity is an individual process. | 2019-04-23T04:22:34 | https://www.techlicious.com/blog/krome-app-affordable-photo-editing-by-professionals/ |
Winthrop Niles Kellogg was a psychologist in the field of behaviorism.
Just like all behaviorists, he believed that man is just an animal defined by external factors and is “programmable” the way we wish to.
But Winthrop held the view that a chimpanzee as well could act like a human, if trained so.
For this reason, he conducted an experiment known as “the ape and the child”.
In 1930, Kellogg “adopted” Gua, a female chimpanzee, at the age of 7 ½ months and reared with his son Donald, who was ten months old at the time.
He was dressing Gua with clothes, putting her to bed, teaching her to eat with a spoon and a fork, talking to her and he was tickling her.
In the beginning everything worked out nicely.
Gua was pretty much like her human brother. She had learned to feed herself, she played with toys for humans and she could grab her nose, if you asked her to do so.
But when Donald became 16 months old (and Gua a little over a year old), some differences between the two species made their appearance: Donald had started to speak, something that Gua – unsurprisingly – was unable to do.
A few months later, Kellogg was forced to terminate the experiment. The reason? Instead Gua acting more like a man, it was Donald who behaved more like a chimpanzee!
Kellogg inadvertently proved that man mimics more than any other animal.
“It stands to reason”, I can hear you say, “because a child copies the other’s behavior. This is how it learns”.
The thing is that another experiment proves us that man does not only mimic for learning reasons, but also to “fit” somewhere.
Because as a social being (Aristotle had said that man is a “political animal”), it is too hard to realize themselves as a cast out.
The experiment was conducted in 1951 by the American psychologist J.E. Asch.
Asch showed a line to six individuals and asked them to point its equal among three others displayed on another card.
There was no mistaking the right answer since the other two were clearly shorter or longer.
Five out of six “volunteers” were hired by the scientist. They were given directions to choose unanimously a wrong line, showing no doubt whatsoever for their decision.
The five individuals who were in the know would choose first and then, after having heard them, it was the turn of the actual subject to take their pick.
While most of the subjects were seeing that the line chosen by the previous individuals was clearly the wrong answer, they were choosing the same (wrong) line!
What is most inexplicable, and perhaps most important, is that when the subject was informed about the conspiracy, they did not admit that they chose the wrong line because they succumbed to the pressure of the… “public opinion”, but they would rather say that it was their fault, an oversight, a misjudgment.
They would rather believe that they did wrong instead of admitting that their behavior was sheep-like.
Asch proved (or at least indicated because, as we have said before, there is no proof in social studies) that man’s spiritual independency is but a myth.
People want more than anything to belong to a group – or, at least, a subgroup.
To achieve this, we are willing to sacrifice any idea we might have that deviates from the norm in order to become likeable to the others.
You must be courageous to tell the truth (what you think that is the truth).
When everybody tells you that the line you see is the right one whereas you see that it is the wrong one, it takes courage to stand up for what you believe.
Not only because you might lose your job, but –mainly- because you might find yourself ostracized – by your family, your friends, your fellow-citizens.
If you choose to stand alone, you could be tagged as crazy. That is man’s biggest fear: to stay alone.
Truth, just like freedom, takes virtue and courage.
This is the reason why people with such a high IQ level adopt such wrong views so airily.
It is not stupidity, it is cowardice.
Because man would rather walk with people whose thinking is flawed and come round to their point of view than stay alone by sticking to their own take of things.
It is very difficult, mentally speaking, to stand up against public opinion. And, most of the times, it is also dangerous.
Because the status quo is threatened much more by thinkers than killers.
The only true revolution will come when we start to think freely, without succumbing to the fear of the public opinion because, as Rigas Feraios said: “Only free thinking results in reasonable thinking”.
“How much truth could a spirit bear, how much truth could a spirit dare? … that became for me all the more the real measure of value… Error is not blindness; error is cowardice… Every acquisition, every step forward in knowledge is the result of courage and integrity towards our own self”.
Integrity to ourselves. This is how everything we dream of begins. | 2019-04-20T00:19:36 | https://sanejoker.info/en/2017/06/asch-experiment.html |

One of by far the most typical electrical wiring inquiries is regarding how to wire a swap. Though employing switches in your house is sort of simple, wiring a person might not be that straightforward for everybody. An ON-OFF switch is actually quite simple to wire. You will find various kinds of switches, but for this example, let us say you are setting up a single-pole toggle switch, an exceptionally popular swap (along with the most basic).
You can find 3 colors of wires inside of a usual single-pole toggle switch: black, white, and eco-friendly. Splice the black wire in two and connect them within the terminal screws - 1 on top as well as other about the base screw with the switch. The white wire serves to be a supply of uninterrupted electricity and is also usually connected to some light coloured terminal screw (e.g., silver). Connect the eco-friendly wire into the ground screw of the change.
These steps would commonly be ample to create a normal change perform with no difficulty. Nonetheless, should you are certainly not confident that you can carry out the task properly and securely you greater permit the professionals do it alternatively. After all, there is a purpose why this activity is probably the most common electrical wiring issues asked by a lot of people.
For many rationale, tips on how to wire a ceiling fan can be considered one of by far the most prevalent electrical wiring issues. To simplify this undertaking, you may use one switch for a single ceiling fan. To wire the fan, it truly is simply a subject of connecting the black wire with the ceiling fan into the black wire of the change. If there is a light-weight, the blue wire needs to be linked towards the black wire from the switch too.
There are actually reasons why these are typically by far the most normally questioned electrical wiring thoughts. One, numerous imagine it is really simple to perform, and two, these are typically the popular electrical responsibilities in your house. But then you really must not put your protection in danger in the objective to save cash. The stakes could even be a great deal better when you try and save money and do an electrical wiring task without enough knowledge or expertise. | 2019-04-22T06:50:45 | https://4unauthorized.me/post/31710/ipcc-report-graphics-fig7-03-how-to-wire-an-electric-fence-diagram.html |

The Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) began in 1969 to bring technical information about offshore activities to Houston, Texas. It was more successful than anticipated with 2,797 registrants, 112 papers presented and 368 exhibit spaces. OTC has been held in Houston ever since.
Today, OTC is the largest global event for the oil and gas industry, featuring approximately 2,000 exhibitors and attendees from across the globe. The 2018 event will begin the celebration of 50 years of OTC. The celebration will culminate in 2019 and is a recognition of the commitment to the people and companies who have helped the conference be successful over the years.
The conference will feature special events to commemorate the anniversary, including an opening ceremony, legacy luncheon and chairman’s panel on energy transformation.
OTC features leading-edge technical information, the industry’s largest equipment exhibition and industry professionals from more than 120 countries. The conference will include presentations on insights by global experts on technological advances, safety, environmentally focused solutions, and economic and regulatory impacts. Energy professionals will meet to exchange ideas and opinions to advance scientific and technical knowledge for offshore resources and environmental matters.
The technical program will reflect on OTC’s history to commemorate the anniversary year, the current state of the industry and what is on the horizon.
This will include topics such as solutions to reduce the development timeline and create project-ready technologies that meet current industry challenges; ways to decrease costs and improve overall value while maintaining high standards for safety, operability and reliability; how advanced software, nanotechnology and the digital revolution are integrating disciplines and triggering a historic transformation in the offshore energy sector; meeting the energy needs of fast-growing economies while reducing carbon emissions and carefully considering the impact of digital technology; and the latest on landmark projects that have resulted in breakthrough technologies in a low oil price environment.
Service company executives and operators will share accomplishments from projects in Canada, Malaysia, the Gulf of Mexico and the North Sea.
Each year, OTC recognizes innovative technologies with the Spotlight on New Technology Award. Exclusively for OTC exhibitors, the awards program is held to showcase the latest and most advanced technologies that are leading the industry into the future.
New — The technology must have been offered to the marketplace in a ready-for-commercialization state fewer than two years prior to the application date. If previously advertised at OTC, it must not have been displayed for more than one conference. The technology cannot infringe on any known patents or other intellectual property rights.
Innovative — The technology must be original, groundbreaking and capable of having a major impact on the industry. For example, an improvement in the efficiency of an existing motor would not be considered unless it had the potential to change the way the motor could be used in the industry.
Proven — The technology must be proven, either through full-scale application or successful prototype testing. For example, a proposed new type of software in the development phase would not be considered applicable.
Broad interest — The technology must have broad interest and appeal. A new type of valve would not be considered new technology or of broad interest if it were simply a replacement of a previous valve at a lower cost. However, the new valve might be considered to have broad interest if it had the potential to change the way in which valves impact or are used in the wider system that utilizes the valve.
Significant impact — The technology must provide significant benefits beyond existing technologies. Environmental impact is an important judging criterion.
OTC is sponsored by 13 industry organizations and societies that work cooperatively to develop the technical program. OTC also has endorsing and supporting organizations. These sponsoring organizations use revenue to provide many other important programs for its members, such as training and technical journals.

There are new requirements being put into place for Public Safety Divers. Based on the Scuba Shack’s method and style of training we are at the forefront of helping set those standards. There are always options in terms of training, but considering the inherent risks and liability involved, it’s imperative for Public Safety Divers to actually be able to dive and perform their tasks without putting themselves or team members at risk.
Initial Consult – we take the time prior to getting started with training to understand each team member’s equipment. This enables us to make recommendations and square away each diver’s equipment prior to getting started with classes. We also learn about the ability of each diver so we know how to tailor the training.
Lecture – we believe it’s important to bring the entire team together and talk about each diver’s training experience to date as well as how comfortable they are in the water. It’s important to get everyone on the same page mentally prior to getting into the water.
The Diver Equation – we make sure everyone on the team understands The Diver Equation. The Diver Equation has numerous factors (both dynamic and static) that make a fundamentally sound diver. Some of the dynamic factors include: body positioning, breathing, BCD, and propulsion. Some of the static factors include: weighting, tank selection, lights, hardware and positioning of all equipment. It’s imperative that Public Safety Divers understand each element of the Diver Equation and how it pertains to them in terms of equipment selection as well as in the water.
Foundation & Fundamentals of Diving – it’s important for all team members to understand the following: pre-dive planning, equipment selection, gas management, physics over equipment, physics over physiology, pre-dive checks, team diving and the importance of surface support/surface setup.
Public Safety Core Principles – we put all our Public Safety Divers through our Core Principles class. In order to perform task’s in the water, divers must be able to control their buoyancy in the water column. This class allows us to evaluate each diver’s in water capabilities with the goal of bring all divers to the same level of buoyancy control. This class is the foundation for all divers and types of diving and is usually taken at various course levels a few times each year.
The Training Environment – Scuba Shack has year round access to Brownstone Exploration & Discovery Park, a 29 acre quarry. This facility enables Public Safety Divers to train in they type of environment that they will actually encounter. The quarry is equipped with platforms submersed at various depths, navigation courses, and various objects submersed in the water (car, truck, bus, boat, plane, etc…). From ice diving classes in the winter to navigation, rescue, search and recovery and buoyancy courses throughout the year, this environment enables real world scenarios to be re-enacted/performed underwater as well as on the surface.
Style of Training – Scuba Shack is a PADI and Global Underwater Explorer (GUE) certified training center. The Scuba Shack instructors combine their levels of training to create programs that are unrivaled by any other training facility.
In summary, combining the capabilities of the Scuba Shack staff’s PADI and GUE qualifications, with the various training environments utilized, Scuba Shack has raised the bar in terms of Public Safety Diver training. | 2019-04-22T13:16:29 | https://scubashackct.com/public-safety-dive-training-division/the-key-difference/ |
Tech Blog with latest tech news CopyShould MESSAGE OF SHRI GURU GRANTH SAHIB JI Tech Blog with latest tech news CopyShould!!
The God-conscious being is always unstained, like the sun, which gives its comfort and warmth to all. The God-conscious being looks upon all alike, like the wind, which blows equally upon the king and the poor beggar.
Guru Nank Dev Ji said "Sikhi does not teach you to raise your hand on a women it teaches you to respect them"
In the earth and in the sky, I do not see any second. Among all the women and the men, His Light is shining.
Besides its monotheism, Sikhism also emphasizes another philosophical idea, which is known as monism, a philosophical position which argues that the variety of existing things can be explained in terms of a single reality or substance. Furthermore one of the tenet of the religion is the belief that the world is only a "vision" or illusion (Maya) and that God is the sole "Continuing Reality" so that selfishness, egoism and hate are meaningless.
He Himself is all-in-all. Who else can we speak of? God Himself grants His gifts, and He Himself receives them.
Pleasure and pain, liberation and reincarnation, O Nanak, come according to one's pre-ordained destiny.
The Sikh religion emphasizes several other virtues: Truth (Sat), contentment (santokh), Love (Ishq), Compassion/Mercy (daya), Service (seva), Charity (dana), forgiveness (ksama), humility (nimrata), patience (dheerjh), non-attachment (vairagya) and renunciation (taiga).
These believers attempt to avoid anger (krodh), egoism (ahankara), avarice (lobh), lust (kama), infatuation (moha), sinful acts (papa), pride (man), doubt (duvidha), ownership (mamata), hatred (vair), and hostility (virodh). In the Sikh religion, freedom from these vices, or Sahaj, is attained through tension-free, ethical living, grounded in spirituality avoiding self-mortification and other religious rites of cleansing. | 2019-04-22T15:55:26 | http://copyshould.blogspot.com/2015/10/message-of-shri-guru-granth-sahib-ji.html |

Subject: Professor X, Trainer, Uncanny X-Men #109 using his ability multiple times during the same step of an opponent's turn.
Global: Pay [Mask]. Move up to 2 Sidekick dice from your Used Pile to your Prep Area.
If during my opponent's turn, there are 3 Sidekick dice in my Used Pile, can I use Professor X's ability twice? If yes, and I pay using Sidekick dice each time, will it let me move 4 Sidekick dice or only 3?
ANSWER: Yes, and 4. You perform as much of Professor X's card text as possible after paying all costs. The first instance of the ability would resolve completely, at the end of which the Sidekick die you used to pay its cost moves to your Used Pile (it is your opponent's turn). Even though you've already declared that you are using the second instance of Professor X's ability, it now resolves when there are 2 Sidekicks you may move to your Prep Area. | 2019-04-19T16:28:20 | http://wes.mfv.com/bb/viewtopic.php?f=9&p=3898 |

MILTON, Mass. – Junior Zel Kerkel (Loudon, N.H.) made a career-high 19 saves but Plymouth State University fell to Curry College, 11-7, in a non-conference men's lacrosse game at Walter M. Kratz Field on Thursday afternoon.
With the setback the Panthers fall to 1-2, while Curry evens its record at 2-2.
In a back-and-forth game, the Colonels struck for six straight goals between the third and fourth quarters to take control. PSU had pulled in front, 6-5, after freshman Connor Delea (Manchester, N.H.) notched his second of the game, and sixth goal in the last two games, with 4:20 left in the third. Curry responded with the next six tallies, three each in the third and fourth quarters, before PSU tacked on a final goal in the last minute of play to account for the 11-7 final.
The Colonels took the lead midway through the opening quarter when junior MJ Urbano (Wakefield, Mass.) scored at the 7:39 mark. PSU countered with a pair of goals to take a 2-1 lead after the opening 15 minutes. Junior Paul Luongo (Northborough, Mass.) scored his second of the year to tie the game with 3:00 left in the quarter, and junior Jake Burns (Salem, N.H.) added his second of the year to give the Panthers the lead.
Curry scored twice in the first five minutes of the second quarter to pull back in front, 3-2, but Delea tied the game with his first goal of the afternoon with 4:08 left in the half. Urbano gave the Colonels a 4-3 lead at the break when he scored with just under three minutes left in the half.
Sophomore Griffin Jacobson (Windham, Maine) tied the game for the Panthers 4:55 into the third quarter, but sophomore Jake Stebbins (Colchester, Vt.) gave the home team a one-goal advantage five minutes later. Luongo netted his second of the game to even the score once again, and Delea's goal 12 seconds later gave Plymouth State the 6-5 lead, setting up Curry's run to pull away.
Jacobson and Luongo each tallied a pair of goals, while Delea added two goals and an assist. Burns chipped in with a goal and an assist. Sophomore Charlie Harrington (Walpole, Mass.) and senior Kyle Stockman (Ballston Lake, N.Y.) led the Panthers with four ground balls each, while senior Lucas McCue (Brunswick, Maine) scooped up three. Junior Casey Elkins (Stow, Mass.) forced a team-high three Colonels' turnovers. Kerkel made a career-high 19 stops but suffered the loss to fall to 1-2.
Urbano led all scorers with three goals for Curry, as senior Tom Cashin (Boxford, Mass.) added two goals and two assists. Cashin also led all players with six ground balls. Junior Josh Teller (Milford, Conn.) made 13 saves.
Curry outshot the Panthers 41-29 for the game, with most of the difference coming in the second quarter as the home team fired 15 shots to PSU's five.
Plymouth State travels to Castleton University on Sunday (Mar. 18) for a 1:00 p.m., non-conference game with the Spartans. | 2019-04-22T19:15:43 | http://athletics.plymouth.edu/sports/mlax/2017-18/releases/20180315spi6z1 |
Isn’t this time of year exciting? We are learning all about the 2019 models and Chevrolet does not disappoint! They made some big changes to the Silverado for 2019. Here are just a few of the exciting changes, you can learn about all the changes for the Silverado and all of Chevrolet’s models at Len Stoler Chevrolet.
The 2019 Silverado 1500 is bigger and lighter than its predecessor, with a wheelbase that’s 3.9 inches longer than the 2018 version. Overall length is up as well, with the new truck being 1.6 inches longer than before.
Passengers rejoice! The Silverado’s larger footprint improves rear-seat comfort in the four-door crew cab, legroom grows from 40.9 inches to 43.8 inches. Along with the additional leg room, Chevy also added two large storage bins in the rear seatbacks, as well as storage space under the rear seat bottoms.
A new roll-formed, high-strength steel bed floor is 1.5 times the strength of the previous one and has 12 stationary tie-downs that are double the strength of the ones on the previous truck. Another set of nine removable tie-downs will be offered as an accessory.
The 2019 Silverado will have a choice of six different powertrain combinations. Two new gasoline V-8 engines, a 5.3-liter unit and a 6.2-liter, all this means improved efficiency by way of General Motors’ new Dynamic Fuel Management system, which can cut fuel flow to between one and seven cylinders as conditions permit.
With a steeper windshield and roof spoiler, the new Silverado has an aerodynamic efficiency despite riding an inch higher than previous models.
Custom trims are available on all models of the 2019 Silverado making it easy to customize your new ride and give it a little personality!
These are just a few of the changes you’ll see in the 2019 Chevy Silverado. For a complete list of changes and for all the custom trims and accessories connect with Len Stoler Chevrolet.

From very simple beginnings in early 1913, the Millane family has enhanced New England’s trees. Millane expert tree pruning, cabling, cavity & pest control abounded from the 1920’s through the 1970’s. By the 1990’s our small local Nursery grew and expanded to over 400 acres (in 5 towns) ~ growing top-quality trees, shrubs and evergreens for both commercial sites and residential properties. Besides providing diverse varieties and a vast selection of quality trees for almost a century, Millane was known and highly respected for extensive tree knowledge, large tree moving and specialty planting throughout the Northeastern US.
In late 2016 we closed our Field Growing operation; but our tree knowledge and expertise continues with CONSULTING as a licensed Tree Arborist/Grounds Supervisor and Landscape Designer.
We still import & sell high quality Okatsune pruners to maintain beautiful, healthy trees & shrubs.
We still provide durable outdoor labels for use in laser printers to many Nurseries & Garden Shops.
Please call Michael or Laura Millane for your tree & landscape concerns. | 2019-04-25T14:56:27 | http://millane.com/ |

This is an all embracing legal document setting out the terms and conditions for a club, group or society as an unincorporated association. By that, we mean any association of two or more people, who have come together to form a club to pursue a common social or recreational purpose. Mutual rights and responsibilities arise from the rules which members agree to – that is, this agreement.
This document provides for how the club will be constituted, who controls its structure, administration and funds as well as setting out its purposes, aims and goals. In law, this type of group is called an ‘unincorporated association’ because, unlike a company, it has not been ‘incorporated’. Thus, it has no legal identity of its own, beyond the identity of the individual members. These members of course, require rules by which to regulate their association in the pursuit of their common goals. So if you organize a society, club, group or association of any kind, you will need a document such as this.
Whether you wish to improve the building structure, staffing, services and facilities of any hospital or similar care home, provide a team of volunteer drivers to enable patients who do not need an ambulance to travel between their homes and the hospital free of charge, lend help and support to families of persons in the hospital or promote a healthy lifestyle to those living in a particular area, or have any other similar cause, this document is suitable. | 2019-04-23T12:15:55 | https://www.netlawman.com.au/d/hospital-lobby-group-constitution |
I was delighted to. Then I drove her 1,000 Klms home to the Outpost.
Moshi the cat is less thrilled. She has, since Pili’s arrival yesterday evening, worn an expression of outraged ‘What the F***??!!‘. She has spat alot in Pili’s direction, stalked about the house bearing a demeanour that says it all, ‘Who the hell is that?’ and hurled feline abuse that makes my hair, and hers, stand on end.
Not Pili’s though, she thinks it’s all part of the fun; that she has discovered the back door is safely mosquito meshed heightens her enjoyment: she can torment Moshi by hurling herself at the mesh and barking without the slightest risk of getting her eyes clawed out.
She would love to chase Scal around the garden, Scal who isn’t as outraged as Moshi but is a little nervous of the newcomer so not ready to be chased, she hasn’t bought me back any of the flamboyant pods I throw for her but my, she makes me laugh.
Somebody said to me this week, ‘you’re too quiet’.
Afraid that if I do, start saying, I might revert to default: tediously Minding Gaps.
But I have. Let go.
That’s the easier, not to say easy, and inevitable bit.
It’s the ratting-around-void that’s hard.
For so long children have dictated and directed my day that in their absence it is difficult not to flail, not to wonder what to do next.
So I find shape to long hours in the tiniest things. I rescue a startling turquoise – and startled – kingfisher from the pool which he mistook for a tropical swamp such is its pea-greeness. He was cold and shivered and gasped so that I worried he might die. I fished him out and lay him in the sun to warm and locked that cats up so that he was safe from lurking predators.
And an hour later he was gone. Flown. I rejoiced.
Yesterday I watched him swoop into the same swampy depths. He was more careful this time.
I found a hedgehog one morning, valiantly swimming in circles, tiny feet paddling to keep him afloat. I fished him out too, and he curled instantly into a tight ball until he thought I wasn’t looking and then he scuttled – Mrs Tiggywinkle like – beneath sunbaked stones to slumber.
And then blessedly the rain came down and washed the spiders out of the flamboyant (and into the peagreen pool so that I fished them out as well, but too late for they were stiff and upside down) and rinsed the world clean so that the flamboyant blossom was ruby red again and bled damply onto the lawn, so that the leaves were glossy green.
Retired and Crazy wants to know what a Sallyworm is. I built my first with an old friend when I was younger than my youngest is now – and boarding school incarcerated. Sally is maniupulated to give context to time, let you think you can manage it, which is very important when it stretches overwhelmingly and loosely in front of you. Sally’s made of segments, each accounts for a single day. You can cruelly rip her segments off at bedtime or – more gently – strike a line through the relevant day’s circle. I have not constructed one for some time; the last I counted days down on was the one Hat drew for me, in my 09 diary, when she went away to England 3 weeks ahead of me.
I think I might make one now. Give some structure to my day.
Some definition to my weeks. | 2019-04-25T06:45:58 | https://reluctantmemsahib.wordpress.com/2010/11/ |
These September 11, 2001 photos were sent to me by Tim Powers, a very old and dear friend. After I reviewed them, I was moved to add them to my web site.
Let's please not forget the men and woman that were lost in this despicable act of violence, including the 100's of individuals that were NOT in harms way and unselfishly rushed into hell to help . . . many never came out.
The outrage we feel should also apply to the continuing escalation of domestic terrorism we have experienced by radical hate-mongers with no tolerance for other views.
Just as international terrorism is supported and encouraged directly and indirectly by the fringe of religious, social and political groups, so is our home grown version of terrorism. They teach hate and radicalize their children . . . and the cycle continues.
We have the good fortune to live in a free society and that freedom does present challenges when dealing with this type of hate bating . . . but we need to keep trying and not give up.
Let's all work harder to be more vocal in condemning these disturbed perpetrators and those using the airways and the internet to give them direct and as well as more subtle encouragement. We will not like the social consequences of doing nothing and allowing this behavior to continue.
"Osama Bin Laden is dead" President Obama announced Sunday night in a televised address to the nation. The mastermind of the 911 attacks was killed by a small team of Navy SEALs as the result of a U.S. operation launched in Abbottabad, Pakistan against the compound where Bin Laden was hiding. The SEALs took possession of his body and buried him at sea.
The word SEAL is an abbreviation for SEa, Air and Land. They are part of the Naval Special Warfare Command (NSWC) and were formerly referred to as SEAL Team 6. They are based in Dam Neck, Virginia (outside of Virginia Beach, Virginia).
SEALs are considered the most highly trained counter-terrorism force in the world. SEAL Team 6 is comprised of the most elite of the SEALs (so, they are the elite of the elite).

Recognition of prior learning (RPL) in South Africa is critical to the development of an equitable education and training system. Historically, nursing has been known as one of the professions that provides access to the training and education of marginalised groups who have minimal access to formal education. The advent of implementing RPL in nursing has, however, not been without challenges. The purpose of this study was to explore and describe the experiences of RPL nursing candidates related to a 4-year comprehensive nursing training programme at a nursing education institution in Gauteng. An exploratory, descriptive and contextual qualitative research design was undertaken. The research sample comprised 13 purposefully selected participants. Face-to-face individual interviews, using open-ended questions, were used to collect data, which were analysed using Tesch’s approach. Recognition of prior learning candidates experienced a number of realities as adult learners. On a positive note, their prior knowledge and experience supported them in their learning endeavours. Participants, however, experienced a number of challenges on personal, interpersonal and socialisation, and educational levels. It is important that opportunities are created to support and assist RPL candidates to complete their nursing training. This support structure, among others, should include the provision of RPL-related information, giving appropriate advice, coaching and mentoring, effective administration services, integrated curriculum design, and a variety of formative and summative assessment practices. | 2019-04-21T06:50:27 | https://hsag.co.za/index.php/hsag/article/view/1080 |

After a couple of weeks in review with Apple they have now given Zuulite Miner their approval and the latest version is now available for download via their App Store.
This version brings iOS 8 compatibility as well as a graphical over-haul. A couple of things have been removed… there is no portrait view (for now) and the reset button is gone (temporarily).
I have had an idea for another game, which I have started working on and is going very well. If you have any ideas for the development of Zuulite Miner I would be pleased to hear them!
The web player build of Zuulite Miner will be updated shortly and it will also be published for Android just as soon as I figure out how! | 2019-04-22T22:28:04 | http://after-ice.com/zuulite-miner-v0-500-released-on-the-app-store/ |

Peaceful and quiet, this suburbs are the perfect place for the outdoor lovers. | 2019-04-22T19:01:37 | https://www.uniplaces.com/neighbourhood/madrid/ibiza-retiro |
In the eighteenth century, not all craftsmen were equal. There was a definite hierarchy amongst them, based on a number of different factors: the amount of skill or artistry required to do the work, the nature of the materials used and whether or not the work was laborious and dirty. For example, goldsmiths and silversmiths came at the top of the hierarchy. The amount of skill and artistry required was significant; the materials used were extremely expensive; and although working in metals has a certain amount of dirt associated with it, it was also seen as highly artistic, especially in the design and decoration of the final object.
Even within a particular craft, there could be significant gradations in the esteem given to various aspects of the work. I’m going to take making furniture as an example.
Mere carpenters made simple wooden objects or did repairs; nothing that demanded particular skill beyond the basics; nothing that contained an artistic element. Roof timbers, wall timbers, floors and things like that. Next in esteem came the joiners. They constructed windows and door frames, doors, window shutters, book presses and shelving, and panelling; not furniture, especially fine pieces, Joinery is skilful work, of course, especially if the customer was the owner of a fine house, but it’s still mostly a matter of cutting and fitted together pieces of wood accurately. At the time, this caused it to be seen as somewhat less skilled and more laborious and dirty than the work of the more esteemed craftsmen in wood. Next in hierarchy were cabinet-makers.
Cabinet-making developed to handle more skilled and complex work than joiners undertook. For a start, a cabinet-maker worked with the more exotic woods suitable for the finer, lighter and more highly finished furniture required by aristocratic customers, the gentry and the most prosperous of the middle class. This type of fine furniture, making its way from France and Holland, required additional techniques that had not previously been in use; techniques such as veneering in rare woods or tortoiseshell, marquetry or the use of highly decorative metal or similar inlays. The actual construction of the object, especially the precision of the joints, the overall design and highly decorative interior fittings, might also require extremely advanced skills in the cabinet-maker.
Oddly enough, once, say, a chair had been made, those who applied the decoration to it were seen as engaging in more ‘genteel’ activities. Upholsterers, for example, often worked with expensive and luxurious fabrics. They were considered superior to almost any other craftsmen involved in making furnishings, save for the very finest wood-carvers.
As demand for fine furniture increased, even the most famous cabinet-makers had to resort to the very first kinds of ‘mass production’. Those who produced cheaper furniture went even further down this path. In earlier centuries, a cabinet-maker would produce a complete object, from basic frame to final decoration. By the 1760s — and to a still greater extent after then — we find different craftsmen specialising in specific stages of constructing and decorating the more complex kinds of furniture. This led to companies being formed, which could preserve quality while increasing the output of goods for sale. The days of relying on a single, individual master-craftsman, supported by one or two journeymen and a few apprentices were coming rapidly to an end.
To make this number of individual items must indicate several craftsmen producing similar objects. It made sense. Each table or chair required four legs and their feet, so the making of table legs and feet would have been a repetitive, routine job; while their generally similar design and decoration made them suitable for the production of a large quantity of similar items to be stored, ready-made, for future use. When the number of items ‘in store’ was especially large, it may also have represented items for use in the production of cheaper lines of furniture.
By the end of the century, some workshops clearly operated with a high degree of specialisation, employing craftsmen to concentrate on particular aspects of the overall task. This made sense in the ‘mass production’ of cheaper items. However, it was equally applicable to some specialist work, such as inlaying or, in the case of billiard tables, the preparing of a special slate, baize-covered top to ensure the table was absolutely level.
The same steady move towards specialisation and the introduction of a rational division of labour within a workshop could be mirrored throughout many of the craft activities of the 18th-century. By the early nineteenth, the introduction of machinery to undertake more routine tasks caused even greater changes in the status and the training of craftsmen. It wasn’t until the Arts and Crafts Movement of late Victorian times that an emphasis on handmade and craft furniture, as opposed to machine-made items, attracted the interest of wealthy customers; and by then, the finest exponents of furniture design and construction were seen as artists, not ‘mere’ craftsmen.
Aren’t we lucky to have some of their work still around? Gorgeous craftsmanship!
The marquetry furniture was inlaid with bright coloured/stained woods. The flowers would have green leaves and the flowers would have the right coloured woods, so it would have looked much brighter and more “blingy” than we see nowadays.
Thanks. I should have pointed out the fading effects of time. Occasionally you find a decorated interior to a cabinet which preserves the wonderfully fresh colours. | 2019-04-19T18:39:33 | https://penandpension.com/2018/03/07/georgian-workers-in-wood/ |

Turkey on Friday said Syrian government forces should not be allowed in Manbij as US troops withdraw, as proposed by a US-backed Kurdish militia which is viewed as a terror group by Ankara. “The YPG’s efforts to stick the regime in Manbij must absolutely not be allowed,” Turkish Foreign Ministry spokesman Hami Aksoy said during a press conference in Ankara. Aksoy said Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu would go to Washington for a meeting of the US-led coalition against Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS) on February 6, AFP reported. One day before Cavusoglu’s visit, a Turkish delegation led by Deputy Foreign Minister Sedat Onal will go to the US for discussions on Syria. | 2019-04-23T04:45:29 | https://www.rt.com/newsline/449114-turkey-syria-manbij-us/ |

People who suffer headaches after a spinal tap might have a relatively simple way to ease the painful throb: a caffeine tablet.
Postdural puncture headaches, or spinal headaches, are the most common complication of lower back punctures, lasting from a few hours to a few days. The puncture can occur intentionally—when drawing a sample of cerebrospinal fluid for a diagnosis, for example—or unintentionally with anesthesia or a medication injection at the lower back.
Researchers led by Xavier Basurto Ona of the Hospital de Figueres in Catalonia, Spain, now show that caffeine treatment can decrease the number of patients with persistent puncture headaches, when compared to a placebo. Both oral and intravenous caffeine work, with the IV form especially helpful in lessening the duration of the headaches.
Other medicines, including the prescription painkiller gabapentin, the steroid hydrocortisone, and the asthma drug theophylline also can lessen the pain of the headaches compared to placebo.
“Numerous medications are used in clinical practice to treat postdural puncture headache, so the aim of this review was to assess the effectiveness of these drugs,” Basurto Ona explained.
The new review appears in the latest issue of The Cochrane Library, a publication of the Cochrane Collaboration, an international organization that evaluates medical research. Systematic reviews draw evidence-based conclusions about medical practice after considering both the content and quality of existing medical trials on a topic.
The constant headaches usually start within 15 minutes of the puncture, and grow worse when a person stands or sits up. Researchers are still debating their exact cause, but many believe that the headaches are the result of a small leak of cerebrospinal fluid at the puncture site.
“Approximately 50% of patients with the headaches get better within the first 4 days after the lumbar puncture,” said Sait Ashina MD, director of the Headache Program at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York.
The Cochrane reviewers analyzed 7 studies including 200 patients, which compared treatments for the headaches. The patients underwent treatment in the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, Turkey, and Iran, and were mostly women who received regional anesthesia during labor.
Ashina said patients seeking relief have also used alternative therapies such as rest, hydration, and abdominal compression binders. “Conservative nondrug therapies for lumbar puncture headaches always need to be considered prior to starting aggressive therapies with drugs,” he said.
Since most of the patients in the Cochrane studies were women in labor, the results might not have wide applicability, Basurto Ona cautioned. Larger and more diverse studies could help confirm whether caffeine is a good choice for treating most postdural puncture headaches. | 2019-04-23T02:01:57 | http://www.medmerits.com/index.php/public/article/caffeine_can_ease_a_spinal_tap_headache |

When we last left disclosure of “Trump risk” just after the November 8 presidential election, only a few brave filers mentioned the victory of Donald Trump in their risk factors. Prompt as they were, those disclosures were predictably vague because nobody knew what a Trump Administration might portend.
Now fourth-quarter 2016 reports are hitting the streets, with many more citing the arrival of Trump and what that might mean for their businesses. Have no fear: the disclosures are still vague.
According to Calcbench, nine companies cited Trump as a risk factor in their third-quarter 2016 statements. The first post-election disclosure came from TPI Composites, a manufacturer of components for wind power generation. TPI filed its third-quarter report at 4:41 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 9.
Most of the disclosures talk about possible consequences of tax reform or trade policy. Healthcare and pharmaceutical companies mention healthcare reform; energy companies cite possible loss of support for renewable energy or relaxation of environmental rules. Here’s a sampling.
U.S. President Donald J. Trump, certain members of the U.S. House of Representatives, and key U.S. administrative officials and policy makers have suggested renegotiation of NAFTA and the implementation of tariffs, border taxes or other measures that could impact the level of trade between the U.S. and Mexico. Any such proposal or measure could negatively impact KCS customers and the volume of rail shipments, and could have a material adverse effect on KCS’s consolidated financial statements.
Legislation has been proposed in the U.S. Congress to treat portions of incentive income as ordinary income rather than as capital gain for U.S. Federal income tax purposes. Furthermore, President Trump expressed support for such legislation during his electoral campaign as it relates to certain management activities.
U.S. President Donald Trump and other U.S. lawmakers have made statements about potentially repealing and/or replacing the ACA, although specific legislation for such a repeal or replacement has not yet been introduced. While we are unable to predict what changes may ultimately be enacted, to the extent that future changes affect how our products are paid for and reimbursed by government and private payers our business could be adversely impacted.
Lions Gate Entertainment cited tax reform, specifically the prospect that interest expenses might no longer be deductible. Varonis Systems named import-export regulations. CMS Energy said Trump’s opposition to the Clean Power Program could harm future growth. You get the picture.
Reams of literature exist to help companies understand what they should disclose as a risk factor. The default, of course, is to be as non-specific as possible, and all the disclosures above certainly fit that spirit.
Two of the more useful pieces of guidance are SEC Financial Reporting Release 36 (originally written in 1989), and Financial Reporting Release 72 (published in 2003). Both are intended more to help filers understand what to disclose in the Management Discussion & Analysis, but the principles at play are just as useful to weigh what you should disclose in your Risk Factors. You may want to give them a fresh read if you haven’t filed your 10-K yet.
The chief obstacle for disclosure of Trump risk is this: Trump hasn’t done much yet. Nor have Republicans in Congress, for that matter. We have no solid plans for tax reform, none for healthcare, none for trade policy, none for infrastructure investment. The only concrete action Trump has tried was his Muslim immigrant ban, which backfired and added even more uncertainty to many companies’ economic plans.
When (if) Trump presents a coherent policy agenda, disclosures might change. The key is that the Trump Administration would need to provide enough of a plan for companies to anticipate how they might change course based on that plan. For example, a company might say something like, “Because of the Trump Administration’s new infrastructure spending program, we expect to increase investment in capital equipment by an additional 5 to 10 percent in the next year.” That’s a good, useful disclosure.
Alas, Trump (and Congress) has done nothing to let companies provide anywhere near that dreamy level of detail. Yes, companies can disclose in the MD&A that they plan to invest more in capital equipment next year, but big deal—many companies would be doing that regardless of Trump.
Those on the downside of Trump risk—healthcare, pharmaceuticals, alternative energy companies—perhaps can disclose more now, albeit as a risk factor rather than an MD&A item. They may not know precise amounts of damage Trump’s supposed policies might cause, but they can articulate that damage is likely. How they might respond to ensure future growth (that is, what they might put in the MD&A) would be speculation, and probably best left unaddressed.
Regardless, your outside counsel will presumably give you the recommended boilerplate. Those third-year associates have to earn their $210,000 salary somehow, after all.
It remains unclear what specifically President Trump would or would not do with respect to the initiatives he has raised and what support he would have to implement any such potential changes.
I suspect the whole country feels that way. Moscow too. | 2019-04-22T22:24:44 | http://www.radicalcompliance.com/2017/02/15/trump-risk-disclosures-rolling/ |

While waiting for the long weekend to end so we can go to Newfoundland, we decided to take a day trip to Fort Louisberg.
Started out foggy but soon cleared up. We had a good time touring the fort and had a nice lunch of mussels, bread and cheese in a recreated old town inn complete with old fashion dishes.
Nova Scotia is stuffed with history and we have spent the week touring the historical places like where Marconi sent the first telegraph message to England. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marconi_National_Historic_Site_of_Canada and Miners Museum about the coal mining history of Cape Breton. | 2019-04-23T04:03:41 | https://www.loveyourrv.com/fort-louisberg/ |
