Dreams become a reality for Tzouanakis at Indianapolis
INDIANAPOLIS -- It started out as a little thing for little John Tzouanakis.
His father, Mike, was an elementary school principal in Greencastle and when he retired, the school was named after him.
But in May each year, his father did some "moonlighting," wearing the yellow shirt of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway's Safety Patrol at the Indianapolis 500. And John got to go with his dad to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
John Tzouanakis
Fast forward to today. John has been with Newman/Haas, now Newman/Haas/Lanigan Racing, since its inception in 1982 and has been a team manager for the last eight. He'll be calling the shots from pit road for rookie Justin Wilson when the field rolls off Sunday for the 92nd Indianapolis 500.
His father will be working for the Rahal Letterman team's hospitality operation. And his brother is working on a truck racing team for Shelby Howard.
"I started as a mechanic and worked my way up," John recalls. "I came back in '04 when Bruno (Junqueira) ran and in '05 when we had both drivers (Junqueira and Sebastien Bourdais) in the race. In the early '70s, my brother got a job with Vel's Parnelli Jones' team. I joined Chaparral cars in 1980 and then moved to Newman/Haas."
The team has two rookie drivers in Wilson and Graham Rahal, but a seasoned team can help a young driver.
"The two series needed to come together but the timing wasn't all that good for all the people of Champ Car, Tzouanakis said. "We're still behind the 8-ball to running with the 'Big Three.'"
He was referring to the Andretti Green, Team Penske and Ganassi operations that will start eight cars from the front of the grid. Still, Rahal won at St. Petersburg earlier in the season.
"Justin and Graham have both adapted to oval racing," Tzouanakis said. "I'd like to see both cars running at the end and both in the top 10. We have a lot of engineers who have been with the team many years.
"In ROP (Rookie Orientation Program), we had to hold the drivers back a bit, ease into things and just get them comfortable. They did a very good job and were cautious -- slowly and methodically -- and kept their noses clean.
In all the years, with drivers such as Mario and Michael Andretti and Nigel Mansell among others, the team has never won at Indy.
Victory Lane….a long road for a former Greencastle youth who first went with his dad to Indy.

The speculation for Marvel Vs Capcom: Infinite's release date has now come to an end and we have a solid date to look at now. Before we only had a few timelines to go by based on words from Capcom and the mere thoughts of all those mere mortals out there. None the less the date has been set and we can all look to pick up Marvel Vs Capcom: Infinite on the PS4, Xbox One and PC on September 19th. Roughly the timeline that was speculated on for a while but never actually pinpointed. Thankfully we have it and now we can start the pre-ordering process. At least if you are into that kind of thing and not just a gamer who aims to pick everything up on day one.
On top of getting a release date for Marvel Vs Capcom: Infinite, it also looks like we have a new story trailer for the game to give us a bit of a clue as to what is going on the in the game. Not only that, but it also looks like we have a plethora of other fighters being added into the mix from the story and little post-trailer scene. Leave it to Marvel and Capcom to make us watch an extra few seconds for a small little thing for Marvel Vs Capcom: Infinite. Thankfully it is a whole other character added in but I know I would have rather seen the characters in action and not just being snarky. Here's the trailer as well as a list of the new fighters for those who may not be as eagle-eyed as others.
Pre-order this bad boy and you're gonna be the proud new owner for Make some room on your desk before you pre-order!
How do you feel about the story that we have here for Marvel Vs Capcom: Infinite? Do you think that it will be an epic one or will Capcom focus more on the fighting instead of the story here? What are your thoughts on the Collector's Edition of the game that we have here and will you be going for it or aiming for a different versionof course discuss. As we learn more on Marvel Vs Capcom: Infinite, from the fighters to the storyso you can be completely up to date on all of it as I know we have a long way to go until September 19th.

Chapter 6: Ownership of legal services
6 This chapter considers how to ensure that owners of alternative business structures ( ABS), who are not themselves legal professionals, do not pose a threat to the core values of the legal profession.
6.3 The Society considers that this could have implications for obligations under the Money Laundering or Proceeds of Crime legislation and other co-regulatory regimes. 32 However, the Society also points out that existing business structures do not in themselves prevent solicitors succumbing to a range of influences, whether as a result of financial pressures or powerful clients.
Fitness to own
6.5 Having considered the proposals of the Law Society and the provisions in part 5 of the LSA 2007, our proposals are outlined below.
Anyone owning all or part of, or operating as a principal in, an ABS, would be required to satisfy the ABS regulator that they pass a "fit to own" test. The details:
Where the owner is a corporate body such as a limited company, it would be open to the regulator to require not just that corporate body but
A requirement to demonstrate fitness when requested by the regulator - it would be open at any time for the regulator make such a request and to determine that a person was no longer "fit to own" and to require the interest in the ABS to be given up.
Outside owners would not be allowed to interfere in individual client cases or have access to client files or other information about individual cases.
22 Do you agree that there should be a "fit to own" test specified by the ABS regulator which should apply to anyone owning, or acting as a principal in, an ABS as proposed in paragraph 6.5?

raymondu999 Absolutely,so the drainage channel will be in effect an aero device which could be argued is unneccesary. They have gotten the all clear from Charlie Whiting so their interpetation is clearly well thought out but the other teams may have a different view and challenge it with their own interpetations. A complicated aero innovation that costs a lot of money just to simply ensure the driver has cool toes smells and if more air is being directed towards other critical areas than to the driver, it should be banned unless they can show otherwise. But it needs to be banned now because I'mhave an alternative solution which they can develop. Plus it is an ugly feature. What do you guys think?
Personally I believe it´s some sort of F-duct for the fron wing…. There must be some kind of internal channeling of the air in order to make it "flex" a bit more…I am no expert and am totally oblivious about aerodynamics…
Mercedes was already trying it before!And if you look at the slot…it´s not as BIG as the sidepod openings so i don´t think it would create that much drag and besides the "bubble" mentioned before would be a solution to that "drag" if there was any…

ranky than the other, but it didn’t have any major effect and they still stayed approximately on schedule.
We used the “2-3-4” schedule at that point: they wake up, stay awake for 2 hours, then go down for a nap. After that nap, they stay awake for 3 hours, then go down for the second nap. After that nap, they stay awake for 4 hours, then go to bed. All the times were approximate, and we just kind of went with the average for the two.
I hope this helps! Mainly, just wishing you the best of luck with sleep training in general. It WILL get better ❤
I can’t thank you enough for your words of wisdom! They are doing 2 naps (that are only an hr. Sometimes I can get 1.5) and sometimes a cat nap at the end of the day.
All the best! </s> Last weekend I had the chance to go back to college! It was the five-year celebration of when I technically graduated from UVA undergrad (even though I stayed an extra year for my master’s). Many of my close group of friends were able to make the trek to Charlottesville, which was exciting because it had been two years since the last wedding in our group. Six of us stayed in the dorms on Grounds, which was an experience. I’d never lived in that area while at school, and man was it conveniently located! A little chaotic to share one bathroom between us, especially when we were all on the same schedule, but we worked it out.
In the morning, we met at Bodo’s for a traditional send-off breakfast and then all headed off in our various directions. While seeing UVA and the random people we ran into was great, we all agreed that getting our group together and just having fun was the best part. Like many of us said throughout the weekend, it was like a wedding that none of us had to plan and without one couple being busy/the center of attention all weekend. We already can’t wait for 2016 and our 10-year reunion! </s> The title statementlly know me. I’ve lived 25 miles outside Washington, DC my whole life and while there are cool things to do in the city, I tend to avoid it like the plague. However, I am moving to Cali soon so I’ve made a list of a few things I want to do in the “DMV” (DC, Maryland, Virginia) before I leave. This means facing my hatred of the city head on.
I decided since I had trekked all the way in, might as well get half a dozen cupcakes 🙂 I got two Red Velvet (one for then and one for later!), a carrot cake, a “hummingbird”, a peanut butter chocolate, and a strawberry. Then I knew to ask for the Mystery Flavor of the day, which you get free if you know to ask! It was Peanut Butter Swirl that day and isn’t shown below as it came in it’s own secret bag. As I say in the corner of the store, I immediately ate a red velvet and the carrot cake. Both had a cream cheese frosting which was awesome. The “hummingbird” was essentially a banana nut, and all were amazing… although I gave Mom the mystery and strawberry so you’ll have to ask her.
Doesn’t sound so bad, right? Here’s the problem: getting there and back. I left home at 5:20 for a 7:30 game. Crawled all the way in, which I expected, and parked at 7pm. After spending $15 to park in a nearly empty lot. Insane. But whatever, I knew all that going in. After the game, while merging out of the parking lot the two cars directly in front of me hit each other. Luckily I wasn’t involved and drove around, but they were blocking my exit to 395, so I took 295. This took me over the Woodrow Wilson Bridge for I think the first time since I’ve been driving, which was fine.
The last thing, and I couldn’t make this up, a cop has pulled over a teenager in the middle of the road leading to my house, so I have to go to the next turn and drive the whole mile loop around. Seriously? And people wonder why I loath going into DC… but at least I’ve done some new things and I plan to explore here a

Short clones or long clones? A simulation study on the use of paired reads in metagenomics
Suparna Mitra1Email author,
Max Schubach1 and
Daniel H Huson1Email author
BMC Bioinformatics201011 (Suppl 1) :S12
https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2105-11-S1-S12
This paper addresses the problem of taxonomical analysis of paired reads. We describe a new feature of our metagenome analysis software MEGAN that allows one to process sequencing reads in pairs and makes assignments of such reads based on the combined bit scores of their matches to reference sequences. Using this new software in a simulation study, we investigate the use of Illumina paired-sequencing in taxonomical analysis and compare the performance of single reads, short clones and long clones. In addition, we also compare against simulated Roche-454 sequencing runs.
This work shows that paired reads perform better than single reads, as expected, but also, perhaps slightly less obviously, that long clones allow more specific assignments than short ones. A new version of the program MEGAN that explicitly takes paired reads into account is available from our website.
Taxonomical Analysis
A number of facilities provide dedicated computational resources or services for metagenomics, including SEED [3], IMG/M [4] and CAMERA [5]. A number of publications have described new computational approaches (see [6] for an overview). However, many of these are of limited practical use because the authors make little attempt to provide robust and user-friendly implementations of their methods.
Many important metagenome projects are based on Sanger sequencing, for example [10, 18, 19]. The main advantage of Sanger sequencing is that the reads can be up to 1,000 bp in length. Such long reads are desirable for a number of reasons. First, longer reads usually give rise to longer and better matches to reference sequences, and so such reads can be assigned to specific taxa with higher confidence. Second, reads of this length can contain whole open reading frames and thus are very useful for finding new genes. Finally, the problem of assembling the most abundant species in a metagenome, when desired, is easier for longer reads. The main draw-back of Sanger sequencing is the high price per base pair.
The paired reads are sequenced from the two ends of individual fragments, which we will call clones. Using two different protocols, Illumina sequencing supports the paired-end sequencing of two different lengths of clones: short clone libraries of an average length of 200 bp, say, and long clone libraries, of an average length of 2,000 bp of [22].
Taxonomical analysis by homology and gene content
An attractive feature of this "LCA-gene content" approach is that it is inherently conservative and is more prone to err toward non-informative assignments of reads (to high-level nodes in the taxonomy) than toward false-positive assignments (placing reads from one species onto the node of another species). In particular, genes that are susceptible to horizontal gene transfer will not be assigned to any of the participating species, as long as more than one is hit in the reference database.
Short clones or long clones?
Indeed, in the simulations reported below, we observed that whenever the two reads of a short clone (≈ 200 bp) matched the same taxon, then this is due to matches to the same gene in over 80% of the cases, whereas for long clones (≈ 1,900 bp) this is true for just under 12%.
Reads from metagenomic datasets are usually processed in isolation (unless an assembly is attempted). MEGAN has a pre-computational step where each read is blasted against a reference database such as NCBI-nr. MEGAN filters the matches obtained for a read by bit score. First, only matches that exceed a minimal bit score of 35, say, are kept (this is called the min score filter). Second, the hits are filtered further so that only those that attain a score that is within 10% (say) of the best score seen for the given read are kept (the top percent filter). For each hit that passes these two filters, MEGAN determines the corresponding species and then assigns the read to the LCA of the species of all hits, as outlined above. A third filter, called the min support filter is then applied which removes all taxa from the reported result that were not hit by a specific number of reads.
To accommodate paired reads, we have implemented a new paired-reads mode in MEGAN. After importing all reads, MEGAN processes each pair of reads in turn. In more detail, matches to the same organism from the two different reads are treated as one match. To give one of these paired matches more weight, we propose to combine the bit scores s1 and s2 from the two reads using the following calculation:
with r = 2, k = 0.041 (database parameter reported by BLAST), gap size g = 50, effective length of the query m' = (For BLASTX m' = ), query length m, effective HSP h, effective length of the subject n' = and subject length n. For more details on these parameters, see [25].
Because Illumina sequencing is much cheaper than Roche-454 sequencing, it is clear that future metagenomics projects will use Illumina sequencing, as well as Sanger and Roche-454 sequencing. To support the analysis of such datasets, we have modified our program MEGAN explicitly to make use of paired reads in taxonomical analysis.

In total, we produced nine files of simulated reads:
Roche-454 reads: LC-454, MC-454 and HC-454;
To be able to estimate the robustness of the results reported below, we additionally produced five replicates for each of the described datasets. Due to time constraints, in these replicates each Illumina datapoint was simulated using only 10,000 clones.
Analysis of Roche-454 reads
The MEGAN analysis of the three different Roche-454 datasets, LC-454, MC-454 and HC-454, using the full NCBI-nr reference database, produced very few false negative species. Less than 6% of all species present in the synthetic metagenomes were not detected. Because of the low number of reads in each of the datasets (6,000 each), it is not surprising that some species of low abundance were missed. The false positive rate was zero for the LC-454 and HC-454 datasets, and less than 2% for the MC-454 dataset. Of courseboth depend on the parameters applied, and the usualcan be observed. For these datasets, the best settings are min score = 50, top percent = 10 and the min support = 3. See Figure 2 for the distribution of bit scores for each of the three Roche-454 datasets.
Note that this analysis addresses only the problem of detecting specific species in the dataset, not whether individual reads have been correctly assigned. To obtain an indication of how well the individual reads are assigned to the correct species, in Figure 3, we compare the number of reads assigned to specific species against the number of reads actually simulated for each species, for the seven most abundant species. We have normalized the data for this comparison. (The corresponding values for the five replicate datasets differ by between 10% (LC dataset) to 25% (HC dataset).)
Assignment of Roche-454 reads to taxa. Blue bars indicate how many Roche-454 reads were assigned to seven different taxa, for each of the synthetic datasets LC (a), MC (b) and HC (c). Red bars indicate how many Roche-454 reads were actually simulated for each of the taxa. For ease of comparison, we have normalized the counts to a total of 100,000.
Assignment of Illumina reads to taxonomic ranks. The number of reads assigned to nodes at different ranks of the NCBI taxonomy, from the phylum level down to the species level. These numbers are reported for Illumina single reads (yellow), short-clone reads (blue) and long-clone reads (red),. All datasets normalized to 100,000 for ease of comparison.
When we remove the genus of Rhodopseudomonas from the reference database, the percentage of reads assigned to species drops by a number roughly proportional to the number of reads that were actually sampled from the genus. In this case, the number of false positive assignments rises to about 2.5%, while most of the reads that were sourced from the "unknown" genus are classified as unassigned and are thus considered false negatives. This confirms that the LCA-gene content method for taxonomical analysis is indeed quite conservative in that unknown sequences are much more likely to produce false negatives than they are to produce false positives.
For paired-reads, Figure 4 suggests that using only those BLAST matches whose bit score exceeds 50 should perform very well. With this setting, for any pair of reads that has combined matches, only the combined matches will be used, as the bit scores of single-read matches will not pass the top percent filter. In cases where a pair of reads does not give rise to a pair of combined matches, then only very high-scoring single-read matches will be used.
To determine a recommended setting for the min support filter for Illumina paired reads, we studissignments for both short-clones and long-clones for a number of different settings. All three synthetic metagenomes, LC, MC and HC, gave similar results, and so we only show the results for the HC dataset in Figure 8. Our studies suggest that min support = 50 is a good choice, as it minimizesMin-support settings. For the synthetic HC metagenome, we report the number of false positives for the short clones (red) and long clones (green), and the number of false negatives for the short-clones (yellow) and the long clones (brown), as a function of the minimal number of hits required for a species to be considered detected.
How do reads of length 250 bp compare against paired reads of length 75 bp? In Figure 9, for each of the three synthetic metagenomes, we report the number of reads that were correctly assigned on the species level, for Roche-454 sequencing, and Illumina single reads, short-clone reads and long-clone reads. In all cases, the number of falsely assigned reads is close to zero. Our study suggests that a higher percentage of Illumina paired reads than of Roche-454 single reads are correctly assigned to species.
Comparison of correctly assigned reads. The percentage of correctly assigned reads (dark blue) to nodes at the species level of the NCBI taxonomy, averaged over the five replicate datasets, with error bars indicating the range of all five values. These numbers are reported for Roche-454 single reads (labeled 454), Illumina single reads (ilm), Illumina short-clone reads (ilm-S) and Illumina long-clone reads (ilm-L).
How mRoche-454 and the Illumina long-clones sequences is due to the different types of errors produced by the two different sequencing technologies? To investigate this, we generated an additional dataset covering all read lengths and clone lengths described above, but without applying any sequencing error models. For these error-free reads, an analysis analogous to Figure 9 exhibits a slightly different ranking of protocols by increasing performance, namely first short single reads, then short clones, then long single reads, then long clones. The gain of long-clone data (75 bp paired reads) over long single-read data (250 bp reads) is still significant at ≈ 4% (not shown).

Blood type not a Covid-19 risk factor in U.S.; inhaled asthma drug may keep mild illness from worsening

Blood type not a factor in COVID-19 risks in U.S. patients
Blood type does not affect susceptibility to COVID-19 in U.S. patient08,000 people from Utah, Idaho, and Nevada who were tested for COVID-19 and whose blood type was listed in their medical records. None of the blood types – A, B, AB or O – was linked with their risk of becoming infected, need for hospitalization or intensive Smaller studies from China, Italy and Spain have linked type A blood to higher COVID-19 risks and type O blood to lower risks, and a large study from Denmark tied blood type to COVID-19 severity. Studies from New York and Boston – like this new study – found no such links. Study coauthor Dr. Jeffrey Anderson ofsaid in a statement that the effects of blood type can vary across populations. “Weand…Anderson said.

Within a week of developing symptoms, 73 twice a day, and another 73 were assigned to receive only usual care. On average, patients used budesonide for 7 days. Ultimately, 15% of patients receiving usual care needed an urgent-care visit or hospitalization, compared to only 3% of those treated with budesonide. Patients who got budesonide also had fewer days with fever, fewer days of taking medicines to prevent fever, and recovered on average one day faster. “To our knowledge,” the researchers said, this is the first trial of inhaled corticosteroids in early COVID-19 illness, and it “potentially provides the first easily accessible effective intervention” for patients with mild symptoms. They said larger trials to confirm their findings are urgently needed, “e.” (https://bit.ly/3e6p2K1)
Compared to people infected with less contagious coronavirus variants, those infected with the variant identified in the UK, known as B.1.1.7, are more likely infect their household members, according to new data. During three weeks in February, researchers in Ontario, Canada, monitored people living with a COVID-19 patient in more than 2,500 roughly-comparable private households. During the two weeks after patients were diagnosed, the so-called secondary attack rate – the rate at which infections occurred among household members – was 31% higher when the patient was infected with the B.1.1.7 virus variant than when COVID-19 was caused by a less worrisome variant. When the original infected person never developed symptoms, the secondary attack rate was 91% higher with B.1.1.7, And when the original patient had no symptoms at first, and then became ill, the rate at which household members became infected was more than 200% higher when the patient carried the B.1.1.7 variant. Since emerging in the UK, B.1.1.7 has spread to more than 100 other countries. Ibit.ly/32lfTHT)
A wearable “sweat sensor” might someday help monitor patients with COVID-19 and other illnesses for the onset of a cytokine storm, a surge of inflammatory proteins heralding a potentially fatal over-reaction of the immune system, researchers said. Cytokines are typically measured in blood. They can also be measured sweat, but only in “passive” sweat – not the kind produced during exertion. “T Shalini Prasad of the University of Texas at Dallas said in a statement. In the wristwatch-like device her team is developing, minuscule amounts of passive sweat diffuse onto a sensor strip attached to an electronic reader. The reader detects any inflammatory proteins and wirelessly sends the data to a smartphone app. said Prasad, who was presenting the work on Frid plan to initially test the device in patients with non-COVID respiratory infections, such as influenza.

Electioneering communications law: necessary restraint on campaign finance or chilling of free speech?
The Saint Report June 4, 2009 Politicians and Planning, saintblog0 Comments
By Jeffrey Gould
On May 26 the U.S. District Court struck down Florida’s “Electioneering Communications Law” as a sweeping regulation of political speech. The Court wrote that “while it is true that the Leg The ruling is an important, and leaves citizen groups free to comment about candidates and issues in Florida without registering and making onerous disclosures to the government.
Florida’s “Electioneering Communications Law” prohibited groups of people from even mentioning a candidate or ballot issue, including zoning and land use measures, without registering and reporting all of their expenditures and donors, causing a clear chilling effect upon their right to free speech. Those who failed to comply would be fined and sentenced to jail time.
Florida’s law was drafted on the heels of the U.S. Supreme Court’s 2003 McConnell ruling that upheld the federal “electioneering communications” ban in the McCain-Feingold law. The BCRA banned unlimited “soft”the national political parties. In an effort to further curb the influence of corporate and labor money on federal elections, the bill’s sponsors included restrictions on radio and television broadcast ads.
The U.S. Supreme Court’s blessing of the BCRA, propelled Florida to regulate far more speech in more areas by more speakers than the federal law. Under Florida’s law, even ordinary citizen groups who support or oppose zoning and land use measures would have to register and disclose their expenditures and donors. Hopefully, the U.S. District Court’s decision to strike,” will be the first of many decisions across the nation to reaffirm the right to free speech that is threatened by overly expansive campaign finance regulation.

2 reviews for Aloha Board Shop
Review from Murray B.
Whether you are a beginner or an veteran surfer, this is a great place to buy a surfboard. Not only does Kareem run a great shop but he's an avid surfer himself. On separate occasions, he listened carefully when I described my skill level and how I surf and than successfully matched me up with great surfboards. Here's the kicker though. When I made my most recent purchase, Kareem realized the right board for me was in his used section. He didn't even try to steer me to one of the newer, more expensive ones. He just wanted me to find the best board. How cool is that?! Some of the shady car salesmen I've met could learn a thing or two from Kareem about good sales techniques!
Last time I checked, the used section had a mix of epoxy and fiberglass boards. He also carries a line of surfboards designed specifically for women. Validated parking is available at Puck's Alley.
Went in casually looking for a rashguard and to check out their selection of boards. Was quickly met by a youngish salesperson who tried to sell us a good "starter longboard" for $450...when we specifically said we were not looking to buy a board.
Salesguy kept walking back and forth from the front counter to see how we were doing, but didn't seem interested after we made clear that we were not buying a board. Maybe they work based on commission? I won't be heading back there, thanks. </s> "We have had discussions about divesting small portions of equity in selective profit making public sector enterprises other than the Navratnas," he said.
The fall in Rupee is not a cause of concern for the government at the moment, he added. "We have always said that orderly movements in both ways is acceptable. It is only disorderly movement which should cause concern," Chidambaram said.
The rupee has over the past few months depreciated against the Yen, Pound and Euro. It has only appreciated against the dollar and that is because the Dollar has appreciated very strongly against the Euro, he added.

The Gili Islands are known for being some of the most beautiful islands in Indonesia, having managed to preserve their pristine beaches and authenticity despite growing tourism to Bali and Lombok. And by authenticity, I mean the only form of land transportation is horse carriage or bicycle!
Gili Meno is the honeymoon island, and naturally where we decided to settle down for a couple of days. We’re suckers for all things mushy and romantic, so how could we possibly say no to candlelit dinners on secluded beaches?It is definitelyis—there isn’t any fresh water on the island, and you can circumnavigate the whole thing by foot in an hour!
On a sidenote, Meno Dream didn’t compensate us to say any of this. We just loved them that much!

Santa Barbara/Solvang California Wine Tour
Never been on a wine-tasting tour? Below, you'll find everything you need for your wine adventure in the Santa Barbara/Solvang area Angeles area. Better yet, drive up and stay overnight in Santa Barbara or Solvang.
This is super fun! You will drive through wineries and see all sorts of nature - horses and cows! Don't feel weird about the tastings - the folks that conduct them are gracious workers for the wineries. And don't worry about buying wine - lots of people don't and they expect you that you might not. You will have paid for the wine-tasting, so no worries. So you can buy a bottle of wine if you'd like or just say "Thank you!"
Origin of This Hub
This Hub is actually a Christmas present that my daughter gave to me! A Christmas present, you say? Well, yes. My daughter had a short, wonderful trip from her apartment in Los Angeles to the Santa Barbara/Solvang area several years ago. Because she had limited time, she researched the area carefully and mapped out the wineries that she wanted to see and which were close to each other. Because my husband and I moved to California only a few years ago from the mid-west, my daughter knew that we had never been to a winery before. So for Christmas that year, she simply typed all of the information she had and put it into a nice little booklet for us. None of us have any connection to the wineries chosen; they are merely listed because they were in close proximity to each other, making for an efficient and hassle-free trip. (Added note: I think this is a great idea for a gift to someone you know would enjoy a trip you took. Just type up your the googlemaps or mapquest maps you used, add your own tips and some lovely postcards, and slap it into one of the slide type binders with the transparent covers from your favorite office supply store, and there you go - a present that is thoughtful and meaningful!)
So I raise my glass and toast to your joyful trip.

Edoardo Chiatto is an Italian fashion blogger who appreciates the wilder side of style, combining edgy rock ‘n roll trends with classic flair. He grew up in Italy, where he discovered a love of ‘out there’ fashion, and has continued to follow his passion into adulthood. We talked to him about his recent shift from creator to blogger and his opinions on social media in the fashion world was 13, I had the most colourful and strange clothes in the school, I always stood out. Over time, I pursued this passion, setting up my own page on Instagram to promote my business creating accessories with silver and stones. Recently though, I’ve left this project behind to concentrate more and work harder on my blog.
What made you choose blogging as a career?
I think that I have a particular style, different from other bloggers, that helps me to stand out the same way I did at school. Following this thought, I decided to show my fashion sense to the people who follow me.

Muskets at the Movies #1: Glory
Newline Royal Horse Artillery
Wargames Illustrated: The Death of Nelson
Thinking about film
French Horse Artillery
It's been a very surprising year and I can't begin to list the things we have to be thankful for. I've weathered another year professionally, without being found out as the fraud I sometimes feel myself to be. Mrs Kinch (mainly her and her father to be honest) and I have managed to turn what was a real fixer upper into a home. Admittedly, a home that has some way to go - but a home nonetheless. There are a hundred and one other things, but I won't go into them now.
Firstly, Christmas is a wonderful time, but not for everyone. If like me, you're bad with money, I recommend thinking of a small discrete unit of money. For me it is the price of a gin and tonic, it could be the cost of a cup of coffee or a packet of chewing gum. Try and think of something that you buy everyday. There are twelve days of Christmas, try to give that much every day of Christmas. I won't advise you where to give it, there are plenty of homeless shelters, charities and other organisations that could find a good use for those few coins. There are some sacrifices so small, that it is shameful not to make them. Pick something different everyday. It's a good feeling.
I guarantee you'll get greedy for it by the end.

“I’m in search of a robust solution provider that will provide the dynamic synergies we need to make a paradigm shift as we visualize and try to decouple from the uncertain landscape of an hyper-competitive environment.” Said no one ever.
If our prospects don’t talk like that, why do we?
It’s a valid question, even if the quote above is a bit of an exaggeration. Why don’t we simply use plain English to better communicate why prospects should pay attention? The fact is, business buzzwords are the clip-art of the marketing world. You and your prospects deserve better.
Buzzwords are a problem everywhere – from taglines to web copy to white papers to presentations. And we can’t just blame business school or hearing too many presentations from big five management consultants. Buzzwords have crept into general business and marketing vocabulary for the last few decades. Like ivy growing up a brick wall, if it’s not cut away it will keep happening. People think it sounds smart and strategic. Younger team members will model it if management uses it. If the sales team is doing well, they may think their success is due – in part – to decks full of multi-syllabic business-babble.
Far from being a hallmark of success, buzzwords can get you in trouble before you even get to the table. It can keep prospects not noticing you because they have no idea of the value you provide. On the other end of the sales cycle, it could be one of the reasons why you came in second on what would have been a game-changing deal. Let’s explore why.
First, we’ve discussed the concept of the sales moment and that people think in pictures. It’s a simple but important concept to sales and marketing: people visualize concepts in their brains, and when they are shopping for anything from camping gear to a new accounting system they are playing what brand marketing expert James Connor calls “a movie of unmet needs” in their head. They have an idea of the solution and they are searching for a match.
The problem is, buzzwords are rarely part of that movie of unmet needs. They are just words, jumbled together and incapable of helping prospects truly understand or visualize the solution. We can’t agree on the definition of some, let alone visualize anything if they are strung together or overused. They certainly don’t communicate with clarity.
The list is long, so here are a few examples – particularly relevant to tech companies.
Innovation – It sounds great because everyone loves innovation. That’s the problem, the world is full of innovation and everyone’s talking about it. Because of that, it’s more effective to describe or show how it’s innovative. Otherwise you’re just one of the crowd.
Synergy – Never use this. People cringe inside when they hear the obvious, overused buzzword. You can describe what you mean without using this word, and people will have a better visual picture.
Scalable – Everything is scalable these days. You need to describe this in more detail for people to understand what that truly means.
Disruptive – Use this only for investor pitch decks if your product is actually, demonstrably disruptive. Prospects don’t start shopping with the idea that they want something disruptive. Prospects have a mental picture of the solution and need to see your product as a match.
Solution – When everything is a solution, nothing seems unique. Best to consider the problem you solve, or what the end state is like so you can be more specific in your marketing material.
Enhance, optimize, holistic – these are overused and not visual enough.
Some words are important, but the concept is lost if not presented properly and visually. Here are some examples.
This is one of the most important words in business, but it’s overused and misused all the time. Strategy is defined as the plan for how a business will gain a competitive advantage. Don’t use the words “strategic” or “strategy” if you don’t specifically intend to talk about competitive advantages. Be able to justify your thoughts on it based on. The bottom line is, your can’t simply say something is strategic to make it sound good – you have to explore that idea.
It’s better to illustrate this with specific numbers than simply describe it. One company I know tracks ROI over all customers and can reasonably say that their clients earn $1.73 for every $1 spent on their services. That’s approaching 75% ROI, and it’s the kind of ATM machine you would use every single day if you could.
This means that money was saved within a process. It could involve costs related to time or people, but ultimately it’s about saving money. It’s another concept that is best illustrated specific examples rather than just a single word.
Quality, Cost-Effective, Expertise and the like. There is a whole set of words that get used over and over again, so the challenge is, at what point do you look exactly like your competition?
Said another way, what does quality achieve for your prospect? How does it make them feel? How do you make something cost-effective? What does your prospect gain from your expertise? These kinds of questions get you to where you can have marketing messages that are more specific and compelling.
If you read to this point and thought, “Ruh roh!” you are probably realizing your company has a problem with buzzwords. The good news is, we’re here to help craft messages that make sense to your prospects and help you make valuable connections.

game. My friend and I were talking about learning iOS development, and I decided to use the iOS platform to do my final project. My hope was to keep the game play simple enough to learn the basics of iOS development but also make it intriguing and fun to play. It started as an idea to shoot just one cowboy. My final project was just one cowboy and the player had 10 seconds to shoot him.
Do not be afraid to try something… just start. Tyou along the way. A lot of things I learned came from blogs, stackoverflow.com, and other iOS Developers. Also, ask for help. There are a lot of people with different skills that have developed apps or want to learn more about the iOS platform. At WIU, Jacob Thurman has also developed apps for the App Store and was always willing to help. Toward the end of the development, I was getting help from a graphic artist, Jeff Barbee, and a musician, Lyndon Perry. Both were just dying to get into the iOS space. The more we collaborated; the more excited we became; therefore, the game just got better and better. </s> Print a histogram report. (The "activity" command).

Big Island Area information
O, seaside villas, and surf cottages. The large selection we offer allows you to make the most of your time in Hawaii. Treat yourself with a visit to a local jewelry maker in Hilo or grab your camera and snap photos of scenic Waipio Valley before an entertaining luau. It’s all there for you to experience on the magical Island of Hawaii.
If seeing a live volcano is on your bucket list, plan a visit to the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. There you’ll discover 333,000 acres of volcanic park with 150 miles of hiking trails, volcanic craters, and a walk-in lava tube. Not to be missed is Kilauea, the famous volcano that is still erupting with lava flowing every day. Many Hawaiians believe Pele, the volatile volcano goddess, lives deep within the magma inferno.
Vacationing in Big Island isn’t complete without a visit to the Hamakua Coast and the magnificent Akaka Falls and Kahuna Falls. The coastline stretches along the Hamakua Heritage Corridor from Hilo to Waipio Valley Lookout with historic towns and lush tropical gardens along the way. Once you arrive at the final lookout, you’ll take in “The Valley of the Kings” and its black sand beach and jagged cliffs that soar up to 2,000 feet high.
Watch the Best Hula Dancers in the World
The Merrie Monarch Festival held every year in Hilo is the world championship of hula dance. From its oceanic moves and lilting ukulele melodies to the wild beating of the Hawaiian drum, hula is one of Hawaii’s greatest and most important cultural traditions. This week-long event is extremely popular, so plan far enough in advance to reserve one of our Big Island vacation rentals in Hilo—they’re likely to be sold out.

These guys were amazing. Ram responded to our desperate emergency call with the best rate by far, Angel and his helper came right away, and worked hard through the night to dry everything and sanitize it. Left the place spotless. Had to call them back to remove mold and they were fantastic with this too. Reliable, knowledgeable, thorough and well priced. Look no further. We tried another company that was more expensive once earlier, and they weren't half as good or thorough.
Farid responded fast with a quote, came to measure and installed within a few days. On time delivery and excellent work. Fair quote too. With this quality of work and customer service, Nav. We appreciate your positive feedback and we're glad you're satisfied with our servicesGail and Gilles were wonderful, sincere and great at their work. I found them through homestars and was not disappointed. They came on a very cold night and gave us a fair quote. Scheduling was difficult since they were very busy and ours was a small but time consuming job requiring multiple visits. Yet, they agreed to do it, and they did a very thorough and good job too, just as discussed. I will definitely hire them again for small jobs around the house.
Navili and Family-thank you for your review. Sometimes the small jobs take longer but you and your family were patient. Will be speaking with you in the new year regarding the next project which is dounstairs laundry area you asked about. Thank you again and have a great Christmas and all the best in 2015.
We contacted Sunder after reading the reviews on HomeStars on a Saturday. He only had time on the Sunday (next day) so he came early morning ith someone to help. They worked dilligently throughout the day (Sunder did anyway, and worked hard to keep his not-as-hard working assistant on his toes). He did a good job. Our project was very complicated, with a lot of wires to be fished, but Sunder finished everything. He must have worked for a total of 9 hours and provided all the mounting devices as well. The work was done to satisfaction, and Sunder patiently exlplained how to operate the system before leaving.
I was looking for a plumber for some jobs, and after a very expensive quote from another plumbing company, I found Steve through a Beach area classified section. He came on time, ensured that the repairs were completed thoroughly and with minimal fussgave good advice. The cost was much less than half what the other company quoted, and Steve is a very senior plumber with many decades of work under his belt. He owns the company. The only thing is, I think he operates in the east end of Toronto only, so he's more of a neighbourhood plumber.
I was wary of ordering from here, given the reviews, but I'm glad we decided to order our chairs here. Decent price for the styles you're getting, some may find it a tad expensive, but really for real wood and these styles, where are you getting cheaper? We knew we didn't want to get into custom options because they're always late, so we selected something in stock at that US warehouse. Within 5 days, the chairs were delivered problem free and look beautiful. Dom at their store helped get things done smoothly. I'm thrilled with my purchase.
I found Brent through Homestarwanted to know what we were getting into. Bryant was so thorough and pointed out a couple of things outside the house that violated city code but could easily be fixed. He checked everything in the house thoroughly and explained everything so well. He also didn't nickel and dime with the thermal camera like some people do, and explained the features of the house. We are really breathing a sigh of relief thanks to him. Excellent eye for detail and would highly recommend!
Thank you soooo much Nav for taking the time to leave me a review!!! You don't know how much I truely appreciate it! First off, enjoy your beautiful home. There several things that I would like to comment on, first off, you see that prelisting inspection report that the listing agent provided? Throw it in the garbage. If a home inspector can't tell the difference between 100AMP service to a 200AMP service I wouldnt put too much faith into him for the rest of the home. Second, you make a very interesting comment, "", whats odd. I have no idea why people are paying home inspectors a lot of extra money for this service. Even better I can't believe that a home inspector has the nerve to ask extra. It's just another handy tool in my belt that I use to give the most accurate inspection I can provide to people. Thank you so much again Nav! A!

Anders Breivik – The face of sanity?
By Christopher M. Watson on 24/08/2012 in Current Affairs, Worldwide
By Rødt nytt, via Wikimedia Commons
The Norwegian gunman who killed 77 people in July last year has today been declared sane and sentenced to a minimum of 21 years in jail, following a long and controversial court case. Anders Breivik, who claimed to be acting against the ‘Islamisation’ of Norway and the growing ‘threat of multiculturalism’, repeatedlyand insisted that his sanity could not be questioned. After the verdict was read out, Norway’s most notorious criminal spoke only to express the wish that he had killed more ‘legitimate targets’. As the world has followed with interest the proceedings that have taken place behind closed doors in Oslo, is it right that such a man can be declared of a sane and sound mind?
As in cases such as these, passions run high. Despite the restrictions placed on the reporting and televising of the high-profile trial, Anders Breivik found numerous opportunities to expound to the global audience his reasons and motives behind the actions that turned the media spotlight onto Norway.
Clearly an educated individual, Breivik was fully aware of the impact that strong, well reasoned arguments would have on an enraged public. Throughout the trial, his face remained largely impassive, his actions assured, and his voice and language confident. He did not acknowledge the charges against him, yet nor did he deny that he had committed the crimes. His reasoning for choosing the victims focused on the Norwegian Labour Party, with their ‘promotion’ of multiculturalism representing a threat for both Norway and Europe. His actions were calculated in the movement of emergency forces, and his executions were deadly in their accuracy and speed. This was a man who knew that he would be infamous, and thus was not willing to die for his cause. This cowardliness was a sign of the rationality of a man who wanted the chance to take to the media stage and explain his brilliance to the world. Dead, he would simply be another fanatic madman on whom only posthumous attention would be focused. Alive, he could act as a beacon to the nationalist militants who he claimed to represent the world over. However, the sanity of a man believing he is acting on a higher duty has to be questioned.
Intelligence, mental strength and a strong verbal propensity are dangerous weapons for a man who knows he is doomed. Norway does not hold the death penalty as a judicial punishment; indeed, it says a lot about Norway’s history of crime that the maximum punishment for homicide is a paltry 21 years. Breivik was confident that a jail sentence would vindicate his actions as those of a rebellion against Norway’s government. His greatest fear, shown at times by the urgency which accompanied his assurances to the court that he was of a sound mind, was that the court would dismiss his actions as those of a madman, and certify him to be kept indefinitely in a mental institution. In his mind, this would dismiss his complex political theories, tarnish his image as a political freedom fighter, and consign him to the lists of lunatics who had killed people for no reason at all. It showed an untouchable belief in himself, convinced of his divine purpose. To this extent, two sets of psychiatrists disagreed on his mental condition. Breivik was so sure of his actions, that not to recognise the extent of the wrongdoing was a sign of his insanity. Yet it was his ability to reason this out over many prolonged conversations that persuaded the court of his sanity.
Public moods demand the worst possible punishment for crimes of this nature. Doubtless many onlookers (myself initially included) hoped for Breivik to be discredited, to see his confident, assured demeanour break down under a sentence of insanity. However, this trial was not about punishing the one individual who caused so much hurt and anguish in Norway. This was about bringing closure to the families of the victims, albeit a painful experience for all who faced Breivik either directly or indirectly. To declare insane a man who had ruined so many families would have been to dismiss the effect of the actions, and allow the man responsible to be covered by a claim of diminished responsibility – a result that neither party wanted.
The maximum punishment of 21 years is not what all would have liked to see handed down to Anders Breivik. It is almost beyond doubt that this sentence will be prolonged, through public pressure and memory; Breivik is unlikely to experience freedom again. By recognising this self styled saviour of Europe as representation of the growing threat to Western values and society, Norway has elected to place in the spotlight the real, serious problems that face the modern world today. ‘Home-grown’ extremists are one of the emerging challenges to civilized values, democracy and safety. Today, this outcome is a mark of how seriously Norway, and the rest of the world, should take the threat to domestic terrorism.

European Union: Is Travelling Time Working Time?
Article by Karen McGill and Paramjit Kaur
Th.
It is a question that is relevant to compliance not only with the Working Time Regulations 1998 but with National Minimum Wage (NMW) legislation. The Advocate General in has given hishis decision is that in the case of peripatetic workers, tcustomer, and from their last customer back to their home, constitute. Peripatetic workers are individuals and for whom travelling is a key element of their role.
The rationale behind the Advocate General's opinion is that for those who travel to visit customers, and who do not have any fixed place of work, travelling is an essential element of their role and that the travelling is fundamental in terms of providing the customers with the service.
The Advocate General's decision is not a binding decision and the case has still to be heard in the European Court of Justice. It is unusual, however, for the Court not to follow the Advocate General's opinion. The Court's decision is now eagerly awaited!�
The time spent travelling to and from home does not normally countLegislation. For more details on compliance with the NMW please click here.��

What's to stop the next Republican president* from walking into the oval office and using executive fiat to immediately close the EPA, defund and/or cripple Obamacare, and phase out the foodstamp program, among other things?Or at least make the requirements insanely strict for foodstamps and disability to make sure it's only used by the truly indigent?Is it just that he/she would become insanely unpopular among 47% of people?Or is there some legal reason he/she couldn't?
Uh....because Republicans are weenies?
In other words, why didn't we elect Ron Paul?
What makes you think a republican president would want to make those changes?
"Can't happen. Won't happen. Politically untenable."
I'm still wondering why Boehner and the Republicans are not using the initiate all appropriations. The President can't spend a dime on Solyndra, czars, aid to the Muslim Brotherhood, or other giveaways without the money being appropriated by the House Republicans. Why do they continue to enable the spending?

There WILL NEVER BE another Republican president. Conservative or otherwise. The libs have sewn up the 50+1% of the moocher class. It's over "Johnny"!

Quite the opposite. Because Republicans have honor and respect for the law - things you will find in no Democrat...

Our finding that the reliable commitment of one ISC daughter at each cell division relies on high-level Notch receptor activation is somewhat surprising in light of previous work suggesting that different levels of Notch signaling dictate the terminal fate of EBs (Ohlstein and Spradling, 2007). How then can a level-based Notch signaling be used to instruct the terminal differentiation status of the same cell that has received a high level of Notch signaling to exit self-renewal?
Interestingly, the 'mistakes' in commitment seen either in the Gmd mutant or in the rumi mutant at 21 and 22°C did not occur at each and every ISC division, but the EB cells, when produced, could appropriately terminally differentiate. What might be the source of this variability and is it inherent to the commitment decision?One possibility could be stochastic cell-to-cell variability [such as in gene transcription, chromosomal domain replication, protein expression, signaling network and/or cell cycle kinetics (Colman-Lerner et al., 2005; Chang et al., 2008; Spencer et al., 2009; Gilbert, 2010; Raj et al., 2010)]. Thus, in a stochastic manner, individual daughter cells with weakened Notch pathway activity maybe able to reach levels of pathway output required for commitment or not depending other components of the Notch signaling network. Could the commitment decision be inherently more susceptible variation to signaling levels?

In June 2019, I started as the new Director of Admissions in Santa Fe. Having fallen in love with St. John’s three years ago, I was thrilled to be a part of this community. My excitement and passion for this school has grown over the past eight months as I find my footing in this new world. I am beginning to understand the Johnnie way of life, I am reading more of the books from the reading list, I am connecting with outstanding future students, I am planning my trip to Annapolis for the famous croquet match, I am attending campus events and classes, I am building relationships with tutors and staff members…and then COVID-19 descends on our world.
Now I find myself in constant meetings and email chains with leaders from both campuses as we decide the best way to move forward in these difficult and constantly changing times. How do we best serve our current students? How do we help them to travel home or find a temporary home? How does our unique curriculum translate into an online world? What happens if someone on our small team gets sick? How do we host campus visits with an empty campus? How do we help students finish their applications? What happens this summer? What happens this fall? I have seen the heartbreak and concern from our leaders, our tutors, our staff, our students, our parents, our alumni, and the outside world. This level of personal and professional panic is not what I expected in my first year, but here we are.
Despite this chaos, I have found reasons to love this school even more. When we come together with a mission to help our students, great things can happen. This is a campus which greatly values books and in-person conversations more than technology – but they have moved quickly to find online solutions for classes that won’t take away from the personal connections we seek. We have alumni and staff opening their homes to students who don’t have a home to travel to or donating to student emergency relief funds. We have staff who are bringing groceries to students on campus or taking care of fish or plants when our students leave. We have teams who are finding ways to connect to each other virtually and finding the humor where they can.
We also know that this will end. We will be able to go back to the rich conversations around the seminar tables, we will shift away from virtual meetings, we will welcome our students back with hugs instead of elbow bumps, and we will introduce the Johnnie life to a new group of freshmen. Until then, I am grateful to be part of a campus community who can act quickly to protect our students and find the best ways to educate them despite the barriers. On the other side, we will be a stronger team.

We had an assistant up for this, maybe Schwartz? So it appears he will be back.
Probably not the best decision for him as he still has some things to work on, but I hope he's successful.
Makes sense to declare and get feedback. Sounds like he's intending to stay, but I hope he changes his mind and comes back if he doesn't get a first-round grade (which I don't really expect him to get). Either way, best of luck to him. We're going to have a tough time replacing him though.
Imo Bone knows topping this year would take a miracle, and he can take time to develop in under the NBA and not have to deal with college stuff.
Crazy to think 3 years ago this would be a discussion.
He better show out at the combine. There’s not one mock draft that has him being drafted, let alone in the first round.
But will we? This decision may be largely driven by the fact that we have a 5 star combo guard coming in next year. If Bone thinks he will lose minutes to the new guy, last season may have been as good as his production on the court in college will get.
What's he supposed to say? "I expect to underperform and get a poor draft grade, then return for my senior season"?
He's going to approach it with that mind set and hope for the best.
We will see if that happens or not, but if he's not projected to get drafted, I can't imagine he stays in. If he's projected 2nd round, that could be enough for him to stay in, but we won't know until we get there.
I feel like he’s been gone for awhile. I don’t see him coming back, and wouldn’t advise him of such, no matter what grade he gets.
Admiral went into last year saying he was testing the waters. Bone is saying he intends to stay in. There is a substantial difference.

So my stepdad, mom and I were waiting for the bus on our way to visit the newly opened Tokyo Sky Tree (which I will blog about later) when I asked my mom to take my photos. That was the first time I asked her to do one of the most critical duties of fashion blogging so I was having doubts if she could do it. After looking at the pictures, I immediately appointed her as my new photographer. It’s definitely time for me to do blogging ala Jane Aldridge.

In 2014 EVOL was invited by the curator Hugo Vitrani to join the Lasco Project where selected Graffiti artists were asked to paint the inner belly of Palais de Tokyo (the structural and technical parts of the museum, inaccessible to the public).
Two of his interventions nonetheless happened to be in the public part of the museum, and remain to be so since (or 'ever since'?!).
One is the mural "Wheel of Fortune", where the egalitarian facades of a collapsed socialist utopia ironically meet a TV gameshow set-up, showing a puzzle of "Home Sweet Home" in german language, which - in its half solved state - talks of a "rough home" instead.
EVOL is now returning to Paris with his monographic exhibition "Façade Sociale", presenting his most recent artworks. On the occasion he also created a new limited edition of the BlockPrint series, referencing the mural at Palais de Tokyo. Technically challenging hence made as 9 colour screenprint on recycled grey card as an numbered edition of 120. Each sheet is manually pre textured.
The print also kept the half-buffed remainings of a SAEIO tag on the original wall to commemorate this highly innovative and influential parisian artist who unfortunately died in 2017. R.I.P.

She or he haTwelfth grade training will continue to go far from tests with one term responses and towards pupils being forced to show up with paragraph or also complete essay responses. And there’s a reason that is good this.
The world-wide-web happens to be therefore extensive and thus available, that having a collection of singular facts kept in the head is not any longer helpful. The typical mobile phone can now access Bing or Wikipedia anywhere. Key in your concern and growth, there’s your answer.
Essays require more than simply a memorization of facts. They might need students to own an understanding of exactly exactly exactly what they’re dealing with. In addition they require pupils to understand exactlyon paper.hen you look at the world that is real. It’s also necessary in most topic courses at university, and absolutely in almost any expert ability.
Essay writing is unquestionably a learnable ability, although not necessarily a hassle free one for a number of pupils.
A.
1. Every essay should have a structure that is proper really make it readable. It is terrible reading a page that is full of text. Deteriorating an essay into various parts is really what enables it to move in a manner that is logical.
At senior high school all essays should follow a straightforward formula. She or he he points you’re likely to make in your essay into the purchase you’re likely to reveal them. In the event that essay is supposed to argue point, your child should inform you within the introduction just exactly justn essay will usually have 3-5 paragraphs at high school. Each paragraph contains a unique point that is main plays a role in the general theme or argument regarding the essay. (These paragraphs follow their structure that is own tip # 2)
2. Each human body paragraph must-have a appropriate framework
Not just does the essay being aneeds.
S = Statement: this is actually the point that is main of paragraph. just exactly What area of the movie will be discussed and just what made it happen suggest into the movie? The thing that was crucial about an event that is historical exactly just exactly how made it happen impact subsequent occasions?u said in your declaration. Inexcatly what way did the elements impact the outcome associated withof this paragraph.
X = instance Offer a good example! a estimate, an illustration, a well known fact. One thing tangible that gives evidencee produced in this paragraph essential? So what does it suggest towards the tale, or even the movieat one may not often be applicable, but if you’re able to then do it.
3. Every essay requires an essay plan
You’dn’t continue a road journey with out a map and essays are only exactly the same.
Before she or he begins writing an essay they ought to produce a fast plan of exactly whata big thing. Generally not very. It takes only a couple of minutes but helps you to save offer an essay framework, they stop you from forgetting to add any points that are important plus n may be quickly scribbled in a margin, or the very first web page of a exam guide that is not marked.
Here’s a compensate ‘SEXI’. We havenstress why this aspect h time she or he writes an essay, whether it’s only for practise or in an exam, they have to make note of the points that will fill their ‘SEXI’ for every single paragraph. Tvaries according to just just what situation the essay has been written in.
It cg im. You realize once you get back to check one thing you’ve written and also you see most of the little errors you didn’t notice before? This is the reason.
Your child should be sure the paragraphs are printedsound right or within their mind) for them to observe how it moves (or does not as it can be).
In the event that essay has beenessay help the time. Therefore the true number one guideline the following is: rehighschool pupil, exams aren’t actually that long. And some momentell worth staying straight to the finish.
Composing essays couldwhich they had been forced to complete). They could understand previous exams and with them to practise isay require a grown-up eye to get a thing that’s maybe maybe no of were to think she or he would reap the benefits of exam recommendations, including simple tips to compose fantastic exam essays, it may be wellthe

Thethe behavior of influencers, creators, and brands, forcing them to adapt their marketing strategies check now These are the tools you can utilize to adjust to the changing corona reality.
Coronavirus causes businesses as well as everyday people to suffer. Perhaps that’s why everybody wants to read about and comment on nearly every article about the illness. Use the opportunity to spread awareness. It’s unnecessary to include the word “coronavirus in your marketing materials or captions. A small sign like a face mask or gloves or even the house can accomplish the job and attract the attention of those who need it. For instance, the software development firm 4K Download uses recognizable symbols on its products’ logos.
But keep in mind that this issue remains controversial, and If you don’t get the facts in place, negative remarks and criticisms are bound to happen.
It is also important to follow trending Instagram hashtags to stay abreast of the latest challenges and emerging trends.
This is not the time to be greedy, and you must help others instead. The most effective way to do that is to help others with discounts, coupons, promo codes, or even products and services at no cost.
Marvel Comics, for instance, is offering access to their top comics for two months. In two months, you will be able to download Marvel’s best comics for free.
Another illustration is Pornhub. At first, they provided Premium Access to Italians after being shut down by the coronavirus. However, they now allow everyone accesses after signing up on the website and establishing an account.
Suppose you have the money and the means to achieve this. In that case, You can also begin selling products that are highly sought-after currently, including facial masks, sanitizers, disposable gloves, and anti-bacterial wipes.
Marketing influencers can be leveraged to increase sales.
The new world is tough for influencers too. Particularly those whose jobs are dependent on sponsored travel, excursions, attending events, and creating content outside of the comforts of their homes. They are mostly travelers and fashion bloggers.
So why shouldn’t we help each to help each other? According to the latest Influence Central report, influencers are seeing significant growth in engagement and views, which means they regularly scroll through social media. However, they cannot get requests for partnerships or new partners and can experience revenue declines. Find a relevant influencer for your company and reach out to them.
The metrics to look at the influencer’s engagement rate about reach, quality, and reputation. But one measure isn’t available until you have begun partnering with a blogger. It is the trust of the influencer’s followers.
Influencers produce content they aren’t familiar with during pandemics, so be aware of what bloggers post. For example, if a fashion blogger’s content is a compilation of street-style photos or images of runways at fashion shows and runways, their grid shifts to something else. They cannot walk the city’s streets and produce the same polished content now. Be aware of this before making outreach.
It would be best to reduce your rent or wages and other expenses. However, if you don’t run advertisements, how can you get new customers? The trick is to modify your ads to make them relevant given the circumstance — use fewer photos and videos that feature kissing or hugging, holding hands, or touching.
If you were planning an event but were canceled, why not make it online? Platforms such as Zoom, Skype, or HouseParty permit guests to stream live video content.
If you’re still not planning an event, or are putting off it, t via a virtual conference.
Your social media posts are how you communicate to your followers and your beliefs and opinions. So, now more than ever before, your message must be honest, clear, and informative.
COVID-19 social distancing and other issues we’re experiencing are a new reality. Therefore, talk about it, but don’t try to make it appear as if nothing is going on. You can acknowledge the issue by sharing healthy tips or a pertinent, inspirational, or motivating quote and your goals or wishing good luck to your friends and families.
If your company is affected by the current circumstances, Be transparent and open to your clients. If you want, you can get personal, even.
Let them know what you’re doing differently.
Let your audience know about the new routine you’ve created.
You can also share your #workfromhomelife. The current trends on Instagram are sharing photos showing your workspace or office set up at home and wearing pillows as dresses (even in the case of a man).
Give your thoughts, insights, tips for cooking, recipes, useful applications, resources, health tips, life hacks, and everything else your imagination can offer.
What we see now are our current norms. Therefore it’s better to change and demonstrate it rather than remain ignorant and pretend that nothing happens.
In your Instagram posts or Instagram stories about how you’Everything from cooking and cleaning up to exercising from home or posting photos of your pet or cat. Also, you can share some ideas for maintaining the importance of personal hygiene, take a picture of the process of washing your hands (or washing the hands of your kids) and work from home life or your self-care routine, and what you do to maintain your mental health or simply a photo with a mask on.
Content planning dramatically streamlines the strategy for Instagram’s content. Even if you’ve already written the captions of your Instagram posts without changing them to reflect the current situation, you can rewrite them to be more relevant to the current situation.
Additionally, you can alter the description of your products to suit the market’s needs better. Tpeople in the present and the problem that you can aid people in solving.
Social media is used by people not just to find the latest information or gain information but also to stay entertained. To make it more fun, include memes in your strategy of content.
Are you looking to make things more enjoyable? It is possible to share memes related to the topic or even create memes to fit your particular industry/business. The most popular apps to help develop memes include Memetic, Meme Generator, and Memedroid.
Customize the entire Instagram marketing strategy: utilize real-time advertising, leverage influencer marketing, and provide more discounts.
When you reach out to influencers, keep in mind that they’re forced to alter their methods of producing content as well. It is important to think about this and not expect the same approach from them.
Don’t cut budgets for specific ads. Utilize them even when your competitors aren’t willing to employ them. This will allow you to increase your impact and draw more leads.
Make your content relevant to the current environment, do not pretend that you’re in the dark about what’s happening. Bring some clarity, insight, and humor to your articles and tales.

Hi! I had to share a couple of pictures of my Rex (y’all know him by Lucky - we gave him a new name because my mom who lives across the street has a dog named Lucky); I adopted him November 21 from you. He has adjusted to his new home very well and is having a blast being a part of our family! He especially loves his big sister “Sissy”. She is the black dog whose picture is also attached. His favorite place to sleep is on one of my dining table chairs. I have to keep one pulled out from under the table because he would hit his head on the bottom of the table jumping on the chair. That is a bit funny! Once we looked over towards him and he actually made it on the top of the table-we had to laugh but we do not encourage that activity (I wish I had a picture of that though). Rex has been taken to the vet and is in great health. He has an appointment January 26 with Dr. Ned Fruge in Eunice for the “surgery”…….wish him luck!
Thanks for letting me share my joy with you! Hope you all have a Merry Christmas and wonderful New Year’s holiday!!!!!!

The cemetery was previously the location of persistent anti-social behaviour, and at one stage tyre tracks were being left on graves as a result of people driving around the gravestones.
The LEA with the fewest cameras is Rathfarnham-Templeogue, with 28, and Ballymount Depot is the location within that ward with the most CCTV, with a total of 10.

This was announced at the third edition of ‘Premios Excellence En El Sector Cruceros', taking place in Malaga, Spain earlier this month. The event was hosted by Cruises News Media Group. Winners in different categories have been chosen by more than 5,000 passengers in a survey through the website and cruise users' forum. These are the only international awards for the cruise industry in Spain, which annually recognise the work of the companies, ports and destinations through the cruise customer opinion. Dr. Anton Micallef, Chairman of VISthe Sea Passenger Terminals commented, "This Prize is a call sign for achievement as it is a wake-up call for constant vigilance. It is a milestone on the road to setting standards at the Valletta Port. We need to achieve business growth steadily and prudently as not to be misled into replacing our relentlessness with complacency". Valletta was declared co-winner along with Venice, both Ports obtaining the same number of points. Whilst in Malaga, representatives from VISET Malta plc attended a cruise forum organised by Cruises News Media Group.

Starsky rolled up his Racing
Form and batted it repeatedly against his leg as the field of nine
horses pounded out of the turn and approached the grandstand. "Come
on, Little Sister!" he cried. "Come on, come on, come on!"
Looking at the field head-on from the ground floor of the grandstand, he
could barely see his and Hutch's selection, but it appeared that the brown
horse -- filly, Hutch had corrected him, for it was a female -- with the
jockey wearing the purple silks, was making a big move on the outside.
"She's catching up,
Hutch," Starsky chattered to his partner, then returned to slapping
his leg and calling encouragements.
Hutch didn't reply, and lowered his
binoculars as the field approached.
The hoof beats grew louder as the
horses passed them, sharp whips slapping against sturdy hides. Starsky
could see that Little Sister looked to be fourth, only a half length
separating her and the horse in front of her. "Yeah, baby, gogogo!
She's doin' it, Hutch." He turned again and batted the blond in the
ribs with the Form. "She's doin' it! She's doin' it!"
"I don't know, Starsk,"
Hutch finally commented, eyes following the field as it continued up the
stretch, now only hindquarters in view. A roar went up from the crowd as
the horses approached the finish

I really enjoyed my time rehabbing with Masa. He is very intuitive and listened to what I was saying to find my problems. He instilled confidence with just enough drive to get me back in shape. After two Hip surgeries I returned to play Professional soccer at the age of 38.
Masa was my athletic trainer at University of Illinois at Chicago. He did unbelievable work for our Basketball team as well as many other teams over the course of my four years of athletic eligibility. His knowledge andmethods of training and recovery are outstanding. His constant drive to learn more and better himself has really shown in his knowledge of performance and recovery in sports. I was very lucky to have Masa as an athletic trainer through my college career. He has helped me through concussions, shoulder injury, hip pointer, knee pre-hab, broken finger recovery and many other sports injuries. I am to this day grateful for the great work he has done, as I continue to play professional basketball in Germany with a healthy body going into my fourth professional season.
It is a privilege for me to write a testimonial for Masa, a great mentor and a close friend of mine. He guided me from the beginning of my career as a novice athletic trainer to where I am now. I have faith in his professionalism as well as his honest and sincere personality. It is without a doubt that his outstanding skills and in-depth knowledge of human body shall yield the best result for the clients. I strongly recommend Performance Integration to anyone who is looking to improve/restore their body function for better sports performance or quality of life.
Masa is a talented and passionate practitioner. I have had the opportunity to both work with him and be a patient of his. Many times in the past, Masa helped me complete my running goals even after injuries occurred during the training process. He used gentle manipulations and muscle activation techniques to correct my imbalances. He also spent much time and effort teaching me postural exercises that improved my everyday life, including breathing education and pelvic floor activation. As a co-worker, he was someone I always looked up to for his knowledge, his dedication to professional development, and his passion towards the field of sports medicine.
It’s such a pleasure training & working with Masa. He’s helped me tremendously in dealing with an injury that took me out of training for several months, and I know I’m working from an even stronger foundation now as I start back up again. I really appreciate his diverse background and he draws on so much great experience from his experience as an athletic trainer, he understands the human body and he understands athletes. I can tell Masa is paying attention to my individual needs & issues, and progressing or adapting as appropriate for ME rather than simply following a formula. I can’t recommend Masa enough not just for rehabbing post-injury, but dealing with compensations or imbalances to prevent future injuries from happening. Plus, he always greets me with a big smile and is a great guy to be around!
Masa is very gifted at what he does. I was injured in 2009 with an ACL tear and it was the worst experience of my life. After multiple surgeries, Masa helped rehabilitate my knee and complete my collegiate goals of becoming the player I was again before my injury. He used creative techniques to improve gain my muscle mass and strength back in my legs again. I will forever appreciate him for that and will definitely will be back. I have to pain in my knee at all today. Thanks Masa!

I knew before the end of the day Monday that I had made a mistake in stopping out. But I followed my rules, at least. I did get back in Tues and am still long (… and a slight bit uneasy over the weekend). After stopping out, I found an uptrend line connecting the tops of 3/19/2012 and 9/14/2012. Check it out and you’ll see that we bounced from there. Overall, I would like to see an a-b-c higher to above the May 22 highs. We’ll see. Thanks for your spiral date charts and good luck.

Few filmmakers have struck the balance between art and commerce as brilliantly as Peter Weir. He's led the way, with spellbinding movies that make strong political statements, probe human behaviour and rarely play it safe. And while those films tend to have mass appeal, no one could ever accuse Peter Weir of selling out.
Now in his 60s, Peter is as unpredictable as ever. His latest film is based on real-life events and follows a group of soldiers who escaped from a brutal Siberian gulag in 1940. It comes seven years since his last film - and is appropriately called The Way Back.

Our annual Plywood Regatta event celebrates the craft of boat building in a fun and competitive weekendin our industry. This event would not have the success it has had for its 25 years of existence without the support of our community and marine businesses. This year, as the event returns to its traditional format, we are beyond excited to have received more than a hundred life jackets donated to the event by Sea Tow Fort Lauderdale. Keeping all students safe on race day as they test their boats in the water is extremely important to the event and our current inventory of life jackets were getting worn down.

He first used the old mechanical DeArmond tremelo unit that personified his haunting and bold instrumental songs, so thats what inspired the shape of the trem sound I was after. For ease of use and road worthiness though, a solid state unit is what I set out to produce. To add to this I really wanted to stay true to vintage Gretsch vibe, and the old Valco trem in those early Gretsch amps was very unique.. I built this to bubble and throb nicely with single coils like dynasonics to humbuckers especially tvjones filtertrons. This is a transistor LFO circuit that responds like the old Gretsch by Valco era tube tremolo circuit. This pedal design also uses a NOS Fairchild JFET based amplifier stage that can add tube-y gritch to the throb or natural pulse of the trem effect.
Simple controls; Speed Knob on the left & Depth knob on the right, "Speed" stomp switch turn on/off the effect and its LED indicator when on pulses to the speed of the tremelo.
One final bonus, a trem pulse bypass switch that turns the pedal into a really great transparent boost w the slightest bit of texture. Did I mention this is extra killer when you switch from an electric to an acoustic and need to quickly grab the same level out of that woody kleenex box as your electric honey. yep it does.

The older I get, the more I'm starting to appreciate truly valuable things and good literary works are in my opinion one of mankind's greatest achievements. And what would be more suitable for highlighting the greatness of literature, than owning special collectors editions, signed copies or rare books?
I still see acquiring rare books (or in my case – "just" limited editions) as an investment – investment to my personal happiness and satisfaction. I can imagine myself, lets say in 20 years, sitting in armchair and looking at my bookcase, where at the 3rd shelf is a fine line of beautiful, leather-bound editions of my all time favorite books and maybe there is even a locked shelf, where behind glass you can see those two really rare books with autographs…Wouldn't it be nice?Now this is an investment!
Maybe rare books are not an option for everyone, but I think it is an interesting topic for any book lover and VeryFineBooks.com is a good place to start your exploration. As with any purchase – compare the prices, think it through and buy wisely!Just don't waste your time too long, if you see something good as I did while preparing this article. There was an affordable collection available, but by the time I familiarized myself with the prices and general issues concerning rare books and limited editions, it was sold. Luckily they have the option to sign up for sold items, so when another copy becomes available, I'll be notified via e-mail and I will be prepared!

Managing ordering and purchasing processes seamlessly in SAP, from order confirmation to incoming goods inspection to the incoming invoice, can offer a high potential for optimization. With EASY P2P for SAP® Solutions, you take advantage of SAP-certified software solutions and exploit this potential for your purchase-to-pay process. This way you can transform many fragmented, mostly paper-based processes into a digital P2P system.
Keep all partial process under control with digital solutions
EASY P2P for SAP Solutions supports the procurement process in SAP – from contract management to order confirmation and incoming goods inspection all the way up to Accounts payable automation. And your employees will love how it works in SAP Fiori®.
Advantages: EASY P2P for SAP® Solutions
Automated release processes replace time-intensive clearance and approval procedures. The approvers receive automatic notification of the situation requiring approval. This enables you to minimize processing times and reduce overall process costs. This is a significant advantage, and not only for businesses with several locations. In addition, you can reconcile, validate and process your master data by making precise use of workflows with master data and movement data from the incoming documents.
Keep all deadlines in view at all times: With EASY Contract Management for SAP Solution this becomes child’s play. EASY Contract Management sorts meta-data automatically for the contract process, e.g. contact person and deadlines etc. Thus electronic contract management supports the objective of digitization of procurement management. The specialized departments profit especially from the simple and intuitive operation of contract management for SAP, as well as from rapid access to all the company’s contracts and reliable observance of the compliance guidelines.
Digital purchase-to-pay creates competitive advantages due to cost savings from better collaboration with suppliers and also due to savings on transaction and process costs thanks for automatic procurement.
Purchasing in and of itself poses significant challenges in companies: increasing cost pressure, rapidly changing procurement markets, increasing globalization, interrupted supply chains etc. The time have come for digital procurement management! With EASY P2P for SAP® Solutions, you can take a right step in the right direction – toward greater transparency and efficiency.
In digital contract management, all information from SAP® converges with the digital or analog documents. EASY Contract Management for SAP Solutions permits you to bypass the typical stumbling blocks of paper-based contracts.
EASY Order Confirmation for SAP Solutions handles the automatic collection of order confirmations, extracts quantities, prices, delivery deadlines and other data, e.g. Incoterms. Seamless integration into SAP ERP systems makes EASY Order Confirmation for SAP Solutions as a crucial link for the digital purchase-to-pay process.
Order Confirmation in SAP
EASY Delivery Note for SAP Solutions is one of the smart solutions for efficient collection and collation of delivery slips as an important building block for a consistent purchase-to-pay process. Fully integrated into SAP®, digital incoming goods management makes logging of delivery slips easy and reliable.
What would a digital procurement process be without automated processing of incoming invoices in SAP®? You are right: it would be impossible without it. EASY Invoice Management for SAP Solutions provides you with this essential partial process.
Accounts Payable in SAP
Learn in our whitepaper how to avoid stumbling blocks and optimize the incoming invoice process in a short time with digital incoming invoice processing in SAP® .

The holidays are in full swing and while you're enjoying your pumpkin spice desserts and drinksbreak. The two weeks kids are off school are a great time to go traveling with the family. But vacations during the holidays can often be expensive and costly. So, how do you have a fun winter trip? Here are 5 tips to help you plan.
It should be no surprise to anyone that traveling in and around the holidays can be expensive. Flights are through the roof, accommodations are marked up. One way to avoid this is to plan early and utilize the extra time to look for deals. Price comparison sites are great tools for looking at flights but it's important to keep checking.
Ultimately, if your destination is less than 4 hours away, it is best to drive. Anything more than that and you should look at flight options.
Staycations are a great way to keep your budget in check. Odds are, you probably haven't done everything where you live and there might be things you've always wanted to get done. Find accommodation in town or an hour or two away and explore your local area. You can do things together as a family and less time will be spent traveling and less money is spent overall.
If you really want to get out of town, it might be a good idea to see where you have friends or family living that you could stay with. If you are spending money on the travel itself, this will help keep accommodations costs down. Maybe one of your siblings lives in another state you've always wanted to go to. Or perhaps you have a friend in another country to visit, so you can enjoy some new experiences? You also get the added benefit of a built-in tour guide!
Well, there you have it! 5 ways to keep your vacation on a budget without having to take out a cash advance! Happy Travels!

You may never feel safe, believing every stranger to be a threat. It may cause you to spend most of your time alone because you’re scared of being around people – even people you know. You might be afraid to go to sleep or close your eyes, or experience sudden physical symptoms like adrenaline rushes and hyperventilation in response to an unpleasant memory, or seemingly out of the blue.
If this sounds like you, you’re not alone – 24 million people in the US have PTSD. Each one of those people deals with a disorder that is downright debilitating. But the bright side is that even though at times it feels like hope is lost, with the right treatment and support, there’s plenty of potential for a happy and fulfilling future.
PTSD occurs when someone is unable to . Some of its most common causes are war, child abuse, rape, and assault. Symptoms of PTSD include:
Excessive guilt, fear, and shame
Emotional numbness, dissociation
When you suffer from PTSD, your body is in a constant state of stress, because your limbic system floods the body with stress hormones every time memories of the event surface. Trauma also damages the organizing memories. That’s why traumatic memories keep resurfacing and feel fresh, as opposed to being filed away in your long-term memory.
Needless to say, continuously being under stress in this way is also experience PTSD symptoms as a result of vicarious trauma – bearing witness to a traumatic event experienced by someone else.
Because of the extremely uncomfortable state of fear, anxiety, and depression trauma victims live in, it’s easy to see why people would do anything to escape it – and why so many turn to substances to do so. But that self-medicating can easily lead to dependence and addiction, creating a dubious downward spiral that requires professional treatment to escape. And unfortunately, this is even more common among service members (one-third of veterans with substance use disorder also have PTSD) and women (up to one-half of women in treatment for substance abuse have experienced rape or sexual assault). The likelihood of co-occurring trauma and addiction also has to do with factors like how well-developed your natural coping mechanisms are, and your genetic pre

, , and sections can be used to set the configuration based on per-request criteria.
A new expression parser allows to specify complex conditions using a common syntax in directives like SetEnvIfExpr, RewriteCond, Header, , and others.
It is now possible to Define variables in the configuration, allowing a clearer representation if the same value is used at many places in the configuration.
FastCGI Protocol backend for mod_proxy
Formerly a third-party module, this supports fixing of HTML links in a reverse proxy situation, where the backend generates URLs that are not valid for the proxy's clients.
An advanced replacement of mod_substitute, allows to edit the response body with the full power of sed.
Enables the use of session state for clients, using cookie or database storage.
Embeds the Lua language into httpd, for configuration and small business logic functions. (Experimental)
Allows the addition of customizable debug logging at different phases of the request processing.
Provides for buffering the input and output filter stacks
Convert response body into an RFC2397 data URL
Provides Bandwidth Rate Limiting for Clients
mod_macro (available since 2.4.5)
Provide macros within configuration files.
mod_proxy_wstunnel (available since 2.4.5)
mod_authnz_fcgi (available since 2.4.10)
Enable FastCGI authorizer applications to authenticate and/or authorize clients.
mod_http2 (available since 2.4.17)
Support for the HTTP/2 transport layer.
mod_proxy_http2 (available since 2.4.19)
HTTP/2 Protocol backend for mod_proxy
mod_proxy_hcheck (available since 2.4.21)
Support independent dynamic health checks for remote proxiy backend servers.
mod_brotli (available since 2.4.26)
Support the Brotli compression algorithm.
mod_md (available since 2.4.30)
Support the ACME protocol to automate certificate provisionning.
mod_proxy_uwsgi (available since 2.4.30)
UWSGI gateway module for mod_proxy.
mod_socache_redis (available since 2.4.39)
Support Redis based shared object cache provider.
mod_systemd (available since 2.4.42)
systemd integration. It allows httpd to be used in a service with the systemd Type=notify.
mod_ssl can now be configured to share SSL Session data between servers through memcached
EC keys are now supported in addition to RSA and DSA.
Support for TLS-SRP (available in 2.4.4 and later).
Support for Unix domain sockets to the backend (available in 2.4.7 and later).
More runtime configuration changes for BalancerMembers via balancer-manager
Balancer settings can be persistent after restarts.
The mod_cache CACHE filter can be optionally inserted at a given point in the filter chain to provide fine control over caching.
Where possible, mod_cache directives can now be set per directory, instead of per server.
The base URL of cached URLs can be customised, so that a cluster of caches can share the same endpoint URL prefix.
mod_cache is now capable of serving stale cached data when a backend is unavailable (error 5xx).
mod_cache can now insert HIT/MISS/REVALIDATE into an X-Cache header.
mod_cgi, mod_include, mod_isapi, ...
Translation of headers to environment variables is more strict than before to mitigate some possible cross-site-scripting attacks via header injection. Header names containing invalid characters (including underscores) are no longer converted to environment variables. Environment Variables in Apache has some pointers on how to work around broken legacy clients which require such headers. (This affects all modules which use these environment variables.)
Advanced authorization logic may now be specified using the Require directive and the related container directives, such as .
mod_rewrite adds the [QSD] (Query String Discard) and [END] flags for RewriteRule to simplify common rewriting scenarios.
mod_authnz_ldap adds support for nested groups.
mod_ldap adds LDAPConnectionPoolTTL, LDAPTimeout, and other improvements in the handling of timeouts. This is especially useful for setups where a stateful firewall drops idle connections to the LDAP server.
mod_info can now dump the pre-parsed configuration to stdout during server startup.
New generic mechanism to fake basic authentication (available in 2.4.5 and later).
New FastCGI daemon starter utility
Allow explicit deletion of individual cached URLs from the cache.
File sizes can now be rounded up to the given block size, making the size limits map more closely to the real size on disk.
Cache size can now be limited by the number of inodes, instead of or in addition to being limited by the size of the files on disk.
May now invoke a custom post-rotate script.
Support for the bcrypt algorithm (available in 2.4.4 and later).
The mod_ssl documentation has been greatly enhanced, with more examples at the getting started level, in addition to the previous focus on technical details.
The Caching Guide has been rewritten to properly distinguish between the RFC2616 HTTP/1.1 caching features provided by mod_cache, and the generic key/value caching provided by the socache interface, as well as to cover specialised caching provided by mechanisms such as mod_file_cache.
Check Configuration Hook Added
We now have a general-purpose expression parser, whose API is exposed in ap_expr.h. This is adapted from the expression parser previously implemented in mod_ssl.
Authorization modules now register as a provider, via ap_register_auth_provider(), to support advanced authorization logic, such as .

I’m a pretty big fan of road trips, and I’ve done a number of them in my travels. Back in 2010, my friend Joel and I drove down the Great Ocean Road in a camper van to see the Twelve Apostles. In 2012 my mom and I drove through beautiful New Hampshire. And in 2013 my aunt, mom and I took a road trip to Newfoundland on one of the greatest and most challenging road trips of our lives.
While there are quite a few similar adventures on my shortlist, there is one road trip in particular that I need to experience pronto!
For a country that I didn’t really take notice of in the start of my travels, lately I can’t get it off my mind. sharing a photo or video of their visit to the Atlantic Ocean island. Iceland road trips are where it’s at.
And here’s the thing. These photos, aren’t just pretty. They are some of the most outrageously beautiful and captivating sceneries and landscapes I have ever seen.
As the capital is most likely where we would fly into, it’s naturally the best place to kick off the adventure. The buildings of Reykjavik have such an array of colours and I’m a sucker for a city on a lake with mountains in the distance. Zurich is another favourite.
My friend’s Captain and Clark stopped in this cute village on their own road trip through Iceland and their photos had me instantly sold. The setting of the little white and red church with the massive cliffs on the water is truly breathtaking. Vik, like so many other villages I’ve seen photos of, is absolutely postcard perfect.
One of the most popular road trip routes, it is also known as Route 1 or Iceland Circle. Waterfalls, beaches, fjords, forests. The Ring Road is the most popular route and brings you to so much of what makes Iceland one the best places on the planet.
Relaxing in the geothermal water of the lagoon has a lot of benefits for the body, not to mention the setting is like everything else in Iceland, gorgeous. A lot of people stop there on the way from the airport, on the way back to the airport or if they have a short layover. I’m thinking all three sounds about right.
I’m confident that no matter how I plan out my adventure to Iceland, it will be a blast. The hardest part will likely be deciding which of my many travel pals I will take along with me. No doubt my mom and aunt will be vying for this road trip and after 50 hours of driving through the wilderness of Labrador, I know we can handle multiple days of Icelandic nature.
I’m also quite torn as to whether to visit in the summer or winter. While the summer boasts warm weather and long days of sunlight, the winter brings snowy vistas and a chance to see the northern lights.
Have you been to Iceland? Is it on your list of places you’d like to visit? Whether you’ve been or want to someday, .
