Media company, Raasta Studios, is helping in generating the video content for the project; all passionate artist, writers and IoT experts are welcome to join them too. Two alumni of Indian School of Business, Jhansi Munukoti, the CEO of KalaPrayas and Kush Mishra, the CEO of Internext Engineering Solution, is partnering to create India's first smart art project: Zero-To-Infinity. Media company, Raasta Studios, is helping in generating the video content for the project. Zero-To-Infinity is a unique connected art project integrating various art forms like - paintings, music, literature and movement, using Internet of Things (IoT). Through this art project, the team is creating a dynamic and interactive storytelling experience than just static paintings. By linking rationality and irrationality, the team is attempting to bring cultural inclusivity using stories from mythology and science, in a way that appeals to the younger generation. Jhansi has been an artist for about 00 years and has held art shows across the world. She started KalaPrayas to create experimental art. KalaPrayas' first project has been a huge success at London School of Fine Arts. 'Zero-To-Infinity' is the second project of KalaPrayas and she is very excited about it. KalaPrayas is a multi disciplinary art platform, aimed at democratizing arts. Though started as a network to create opportunities for rural indian artists, KalaPrayas soon emerged into a platform for experimental arts. In her words, "Art brings with itself a translatable blessing - Creativity. Subconsciously I benefited from it all along my technology career. This very reason made me reverse-engineer the inspiration - to bring technology into arts. This is our biggest strength." Jhansi has already secured a scholarship from Citi Bank to pilot her idea. Her team also includes Preeti Gaikwad (an art curator from UK) and Deepthi Tadala (a poet from USA). Kush, an alumnus from IIT Roorkee, started Internext to bring the power of IoT to industries. Right now Internext operates in mining, agritech and industrial R&D verticals with reputed clientele. Kush plans to introduce cutting-edge technology across verticals with the help of in-house research and creating the right partner ecosystem. "India for long has been a global tech provider. Our mission is to make it an innovation-driven ecosystem," says Kush on the Indian innovation ecosystem. "Our next big project is setting up IoT enabled vertical farms in Jaipur." The team is inviting like-minded freelancing enthusiasts to join them on the execution part of the project. Specifically, they are looking for artists, embedded developers, IoT specialists and writers.

Yoga on Yamhill is dedicated to the practice and teaching of yoga. Our teachers are committed professionals with a wide range of backgrounds who share a common vision of making the ancient science of yoga accessible to all people. We foster a non-competitive, "stay in your own practice" approach, encouraging awareness of pranayama (breathing exercises) and meditation, in addition to the asanas (postures) to bring the practice of yoga to a deeper level. We want to create a mutually respectful, self-responsible, positive yoga environment where all paths are honored. We support our ideology by offering several yoga classes per week that are open to all levels of yoga experience. Our teachers teach to whomever attends class - beginners and advanced students are often on mats right next to each other. These classes offer a safe and comfortable space to explore the practice of yoga. Yoga on Yamhill is a donation based yoga studio, there is no membership to join or per class fee that you are required to pay. However, donation basis does not mean free. Donation itself is the act of giving, just like the dedicated instructors teaching the classes are donating their time and experience. The rent for the studio and the pay the instructors receive are only provided by the donations you make. Simply come down at a scheduled class time and experience one of the several styles of yoga we offer, on your way out, you are welcome to drop a donation in the box. All of our classes and workshops are offered on a donation basis. The amount you donate is up to you. The suggested donation is $0-$00, however we do not want to prevent anyone from practicing yoga because they can't afford it. We simply believe that yoga is for everyone who wants to participate. Yes, we have mats for you to use, free of charge. What if I got the Groupon, Living Social, or deal from another "daily deal" site? It's really simple; bring your voucher to any scheduled class, the doors open 00 min. prior to class, and let the instructor know. They will in turn give you a punch card for your voucher. This is a donation based studio, so am I expected to donate on top of using the punch card? No. The punch card is a pre-paid donation; we do not expect you to pay anything beyond that. Once my punch card is expired or used up, how do I become a member? The idea behind the pre-paid donation card is to allow students to find a style of yoga that best fits them and an instructor that they feel comfortable practicing with. Once your card is used up or expired, you are welcome to simply continue attending any classes that you have found you like on a donation basis. We have no membership or contracts you need to sign. How else can I get one of the cards? We only make them available through daily deal sites and certain promotions. They are not available for sale otherwise. As a Beginner, What can I expect from yoga? When you start practicing yoga you will find that it works on several levels. As a beginner, you will experience the practice of yoga as a form of physical exercise that challenges and refines your flexibility, strength and balance. You will learn to control your breathing in a relaxed and controlled manner that helps provide focus in the different postures you will move through. Learning to do this properly is the path to many of the mental and spiritual benefits of yoga. As the individuals yoga practice deepens, greater flexibility of mind and body is achieved. Yoga matches development of physical strength with emotional strength, this empowers the practitioner to face life's challenges with a balanced disposition.

Bonus YMMV: I used this offer on the 0st. When I checked out, $00 was immediately deducted from my total. The screen and my receipt say "SC - ECPN - CheckIntoSav 00.00 B. I'm sure that this glitch will be caught soon and I've no idea if it would happen on subsequent trips or if it will void the $00 digital coupon after the 0th trip. If it only works once and voids the congratulations digital coupon, then it's essentially $00 off $00. The $00 off $00 worked for me again today. I didn't receive an email confirmation yesterday or today. Reminder: this offer expires tomorrow. Since it requires 0 trips on 0 different days, you must have done at least 0 trips by now to be able to complete this. I received my $00 off $00 digital coupon yesterday after completing 0 purchases of $00+ on 0 different trips, so getting the $00 off $00 glitch at the beginning of the month did not affect the promo at all. You can take off the question mark on "affiliates". I got the offer on my Food0Less (Kroger affiliate) account. @bender Contains controversial Maltodextrin which is not needed and certainly not a traditional ingredient. How do you know it is the L0C coupon coming off and not 0 $0 BonusCash rewards? Doesn't BonusCash also print out as L0C coupon on the receipt? How can you tell where it is taking it from? The L0C coupon appears directly under the item purchased. The BC is separate after all your purchases before the total. It would be better not to limit the number of purchases.Thanks! They raise prices to give you a discount. @tuskers Not in mine in SoCal. @tuskers Forgot about this until after lunch. Hope everyone else got a pizza! Thanks Signor Rodriguez, this seasoning is great for sausage making...and nothing goes better with sausage than SLURM. Well done!.. I meant you, not the sausage.

My wife and I picked up a 0000 Trillium 0000 in really good shape this summer. We are almost finished with some minor modifications. The previous owner did some refurbishing about 0 years ago so it did not need anything major. This is our first time venturing into this new lifestyle. I'm happy to have found this site and plan on using the resource to ease us down this road. Good luck to all the other tinkerers out there. Looking forward to learning and sharing with you. Welcome to the FGRV forum family, and Happy Trails to you also. Welcome! Congrats on your Trillium. Hey, camping plans and destinations for 0000? Hi Ken & Wife...welcome and I'm sure your going to enjoy and be able to contribute to this site. I't going to be a great time. I will confess to a little "trailer envy" whenever I see the large banks of jalousie windows on a vintage Trillium. Yeah, welcome for sure. We love pics and love those early Trilliums. Pics please. Welcome! We also have an oldie, but a goodie 00 Trillium. It's the green one, we call it PeaPod. Among many other adventures, we have towed it cross country twice. Hope you enjoy yours as much as we've enjoyed ours. Stick with this wonderful forum.......you will learn so much! Jon then how come your trailer does not have those nice windows? :Nice thing about Jalouise W. is not rain unless windy and coming your way, can leave open at night but just to let you know Bears know how to remove the glass just as easily as you do. I found that out one night around 00PM when sound asleep, I guess it could smell the food inside and me as I had to truck my water to the site and put into a 000 Gallon tank and I hated wasting it on me. Bear removes the glass windows without making a sound or I'm a real heavy sleeper next thing I know I'm beating on the Bears nose, he/she backed out real quick and ran away. I went outside with a flashlight and each pane of glass was on the ground with none broken. All I can say it was a real Scary 0 minutes and I could not go back to sleep. Welcome to FGRV! A 00 Trillium 0000! Such cute trailers! The "marshmallow mystery" trailers of my childhood. Seldom seen but always a big hit when my sister and I DID spot one. If you'll identify what we're looking at, it helps us. :I will work at getting a few of those Puffins up for all to see. One of our friends was there the year before us and a Puffin landed right at his feet, what a Picture that makes, I said photo Shop and he said no it was God's truth that the little guy landed where it did and his Wife got the shot. : when it comes to computers I can some things easily but loading pictures into what sounds easy to you folks is not easy for me. I never have a problem removing them from my camera to the Computer, that is the easiest part for me and If I have a persons email address I can send them along real easy but not from my system to Group system. Hi, Stude, yes, it took me months to figure it out here on FGRV. Right now having lost my previous photo editing program, I'm having a very hard time with my computer. I can still post old photos online, but can't quite figure how to get new ones into my system.

Carl Galie is a North Carolina photographer who has devoted his work to conservation issues for the last 00 years. Galie's photographs of the Roanoke River basin have helped protect and preserve that region since 0000. In 0000 Carl began a project to document the vanishing beauty of coal country. Growing up in the coalfields of southwestern PA this project became a homecoming to him and a search for truth. Torn between his coal mining roots and saving the mountains he loved, he found himself struggling between the need for jobs, and the protection of an ecosystem that is being destroyed in the name of corporate profits. Carl is now focusing his attention on documenting the New River Basin and life in the Southern Appalachians.

The Coaster Droid or "CDroid" is a bigger version of R/C LEGO 'Velocipede' Droid that I built recently. And this one I want to add the sensor to it so it could avoid hitting the obstacles. The "CDroid" uses LEGO® components similar to the previous built "LEGO® Track Bot", and "Dart Shooter Droid" uses the same vertical gearbox and base similar to Lego Track Bot. But instead of using the same triangle tracks, I used the CDs as the wheels, and use Hubs that I took them from toy car. This Droid is capable of rotating it body to both left and right similar to Dart Shooter Droid. On top of the body I placed the IR distance sensor, so the Droid can avoid hitting the obstacle. - The robot is controlled by Arduino Compatible Board (Palm Arduino Plus). - The robot is wirelessly communicating with Arduino via XBee module, RN-XV WyFly module or Bluetooth. - The robot is equipped with IR Distance Sensor (Sharp - GP0Y0A00YK0F). - The robot will automatically override the commands if it facing an obstacle. - The body is made out of LEGO® Components. - The wheels are made out of CDs. See videos and more photos in Step 0. R/C LEGO® Dart Shooter Droid, Step 0: Parts and Tools. Tamiya 00000 Twin-Motor Gearbox Kit or similar. 0 no. - Sub-Micro Servo 0.0g (Pololu #0000) or similar. Palm Arduino Plus is Arduino compatible board that included motors controller IC (L000D) on the PCB. And Palm Arduino Plus is designed to be used with LEGO® components. See details of Palm Arduino Plus. For Lego Track Bot's Twin-Motor Gearbox installation see Lego Track Bot Step 0: Gearbox & DIY Motor Controller PCB. Photo 0 The Vertical Gearbox Support & Base from the R/C Dart Shooter Droid project. Photo 0, 0 Removed all the track and wheels out of the Vertical Gearbox Support & Base. Then adds the 00T gear (#0000) and two 0T gears (#0000) on to the top as shown.(Also see details at R/C Dart Shooter Droid, Step 0. Photo 0, 0 Insert the hubs to the motor shafts on both side. Photo 0, 0 Snap the CDs to the hubs. Photo 0 Palm Arduino V0 and DIY motor controller PCB installed on R/C LEGO Dart Shooter Droid. Photo 0 Palm Arduino Plus with XBee module installed. Photo 00 Install Palm Arduino Plus on to the front of the Coaster Droid. Photo 00, 00 Shows the existing servo for rotating the body of the droid. Following are the photos show the assembly sequence of the Droid Body. Photo 0 Show the parts needed in this Step. Two mounting screws that come with 0G servo. Photo 0, 0 Use X-acto knife to cut off the rubber tube flush to the connector. Repeat the steps above to make one more. Photo 0, 0, 0 Use the screw to secure the Sensor to the connector. Photo 0, 0, 00 Install the Sensor to the Droid body as shown. Photo 00 Test the sensor. Following are the photos of the finished CDroid, and video shows CDroid in Action. - Test 00 - test motors and IR Distance sensor. - Test 00 - test motors only. When I saw this I was like " holy snap yeah!" You did an awesome job, thanks man. this is a nice robot, good job.

The Def Guide to Zzap!00 • View topic - Any tips on how to publish a site? Any tips on how to publish a site? Post subject: Any tips on how to publish a site? I just added a site where Firefox users can share Grease Monkey scripts. Do you have any idea in which sites I can find people who may be interested in those services? Being a job seeker is driving me nuts, so I want to be more attractive by having a successful site. Last edited by Newman on Thu Jan 00, 0000 0:00 am, edited 0 time in total. In the US we have a site http://www.linkedin.com/ where you build your personal network of the people who you worked with, went to school with, etc. The ones you didn't piss off. The personnel network is where you find and get the jobs. Do you guys have Linkedin over there or something like it? Many people over here have been looking for jobs in excess of 0 years, run through their life savings and are really in the dumps and it is all across the board from the top down. I wish you the Best of luck Newman. Iain, I'm trying to figure out what how to work with "sitepoint". Doc, I have an account with LinkedIn, , and it is still too hard to get a job using this network. The friends I contact for help in finding myself a new job are job-seekers themselves or work at downsizing companied such as Comverse. If a web developer can work from his home to develop a web site, put an add on EBay to develop a basic site, Put a reserve and see if you can get some bids to do the work. I got invited to yet another interview by someone to whom I sent my CV. I'm getting tired of the process. I've published some stuff in SitePoint. Maybe this way I will get some traffic into my site. Maybe I will even write a little article there. If I can get money into my bank account without those interviews I will be happy. Write an article about (Abbreviated Internet Language). That should be interesting. We've had abbreviated language for years and years. DE in teletype language met "This Is" then you have the Ham radio language and the USA Citizen Band language (Smokey Bear = State trooper) Plain brown wrapper (Cop in a plain car) Front door , rocking chair and back door = the first, the middle and the last truck in a convoy and even more. I thought DE meant "Deutschland" or Delaware.

Sending shockwaves throughout the media, the auto industry and leadership circles, Volkswagen recently admitted to deceiving regulators about its cars' emissions by equipping 00 million vehicles with software that could be used to cheat on emissions tests. Next, CEO Martin Winterkorn resigned, expressing shock that misconduct on such a scale could happen at the company. German prosecutors immediately launched an investigation into his veracity. At this point, Winterkorn's departure leaves us with only two possible outcomes: First, he was lying -- he knew about the deliberate attempt to deceive regulators. Or, second, he didn't know what was happening right under his nose. In either scenario, Volkswagen's mistake stems from toxicity in the culture, and that always starts at the top. Let's be realistic. Fraud at this magnitude could not have been committed by one person or by just a small group. If Winterkorn did not know about this (as he claims), then we must also conclude that internal and external audit procedures were completely lacking. In a healthy culture, a company has no harsher critic than itself and has processes in place to root out misaligned behavior. While a CEO cannot be expected to know everything, he or she has the duty to have procedures in place to detect gross misconduct like this. During his tenure, CEO Winterkorn pledged to overtake GM and Toyota as the world's largest automaker, and earlier this year, he did just that. This goal became the company's rallying cry, but at what cost? Were these driving forces so critical that they created an internal belief structure that essentially said, "We will meet these objectives at any cost -- including compromising our integrity"? As leaders, we must be cognizant of the giant shadow we cast. A "growth at all costs" mentality impacts how employees conduct themselves, driving many to conform their behaviors to follow the CEO's lead. Some leaders do not want to hear any thoughts that might interfere with their growth goals. They are so locked into a plan that anything contradicting it is heresy. This creates a culture of fear; none of us want to be the bearer of bad news. At Volkswagen, the path of least resistance was installing software designed to cheat, as opposed to coming to terms with the fact that a properly functioning diesel engine may have been prohibitively expensive to produce. It is up to leaders to set the example by living and breathing their company's values. Integrity is the most valuable asset, and the cost of leading without integrity has a direct impact on everyone around you. A leader must set the example, know what is happening at his or her company and establish and anchor an unwavering culture of empowerment and honesty which promotes accountability and communication. The choice is not an "either/or" proposition -- to grow or live by common-sense values. Leaders must ensure both. If we assume that Winterkorn did not know about this fraud, how could this have happened? The CEO was responsible for knowing what was happening at his company and establishing a culture where communication would flow in all directions. A lack of communication is often the result of silos and/or a culture of fear. If teams are working independently, rather than for the greater good of the company, siloed behavior can result. Employees may not be empowered (or may be afraid) to call a time-out or speak up when an issue arises that is out of line with the company's values. Employees must be empowered to do what is right, even when no one is looking. They must be empowered to come forward with bad news, with no fear of retribution. What if you were an employee at Volkswagen and were confronted with the fact that your diesel engine as designed did not not perform to specification? Would you have installed the deceptive software? No employer has the right to ask an employee to compromise his/her personal integrity, and a leader or manager should never allow himself/herself to be pushed in a direction that is out of line with common-sense values. An empowered team that works transparently within a framework of core values is a sure-fire way to create a culture where checks and balances occur. In the end, your values as a leader are your most important personal asset. As recently as last week, commentators were still praising Winterkorn for his tripling of VW's profits. Did those commentators subsequently consider the cost to Volkswagen of billions of dollars in fines, destroyed customer goodwill, loss of reputation and the real cost that will be required to produce the engine? When the tally is complete, Winterkorn's record of profit will be diminished. But, his personal reputation will be harmed even more. There will always be an asterisk attached to his legacy. For business leaders, the choice is: Do they want to leave behind a legacy of success and integrity? Or, do they want a legacy which built the bottom line but sacrificed core values? The asterisk is in their control.

Although he grew up without a father or male role model, Dwayne Walker is the kind of dad who goes on his 0-year-old son's school field trips, sits in on his classes, and dresses him in a mint green golf shirt and khaki pants to match his own. At Dad's Day in Pre-K, a Detroit district event to help fathers better connect with their young children, the 00-year-old realized how much he has changed over the years. His youngest son, Braylen, was with him at the event. "I broke the cycle when I became a father. I'm involved, and this is helping me to learn I can do even more as a father and a father figure," he said. Walker was one of about 000 fathers who attended Dad's Day in Pre-K, sponsored by the main district to help remove barriers that prevent fathers from engaging in their children's lives and their schools. District leaders are working to get parents more involved in their children's education through a new Parent Academy, teacher home visits, and other efforts. They also are trying new approaches to get parents to participate when their children are younger - including focusing more on fathers. A study published in 0000 in the Journal of Family Psychology indicated that the more fathers took part in bathing, dressing, reading, and playing with their infant children, the more these nurturing activities increased as the children got older and started school. That's why the district held its second Dad's Day, said Franchott R. Cooper, preschool supervisor with the district's Early Childhood Department, who coordinated the event. Services that the program helps with include job placement and training, helping to reinstate their driver's licenses so they can get to work and see their children, and assisting with child support issues. Fathers also got tips on how to nurture their children by reading to them, and advice on helping their mates breastfeed. Wilma Taylor-Costen, former executive director of the district's Early Child Education program, came up with the idea for Dad's Day just before she left the district last year. Her department held the first event of its kind a year ago. "I recognized there was a gap in early child education with our fathers, particularly with black fathers" she said. "They have been beaten up a lot and the conversation always is they are not in the home, and they don't care about their children. Durrail Sanders of Highland Park said he was excited to attend because it was positive food for thought for him and other fathers. Keynote speaker, author, and educational consultant Jelani Jabari reminded the fathers of the importance of playing with their children, reading to them, helping them with homework, and simply spending time with them. He said he learned that by making mistakes he didn't realize he was making. He was so busy being a good provider, and working so much, that he was barely at home. He said he received a wake-up call on July 0, 0000, when he came home from work early and his youngest son, then 0, looked very confused and asked him why was he home for dinner. "Dinner time, daddy gone," his son kept repeating. The comment left him shocked and speechless, but it prompted him to spend more time with his family. He reminded the men to avoid being so busy making money that they forget to spend time with their children, and to be engaged in their lives. He urged them to add specific activities, such as reading, doing homework, or coaching their child's sports team, to add structure to the time they spend with their children.

PathAngleArc provides a simple way of specifying an arc. While PathArc is designed to work as part of a larger path (specifying start and end), PathAngleArc is designed to make a path where the arc is primary (such as a circular progress indicator) more intuitive. See also Path, PathLine, PathQuad, PathCubic, PathCurve, PathSvg, and PathArc. Defines the center of the arc. Whether this element should be disconnected from the previous Path element (or startX/Y). The default value is true. If set to false, the previous element's end-point (or startX/Y if PathAngleArc is the first element) will be connected to the arc's start-point with a straight line. Defines the radii of the ellipse of which the arc is part. Defines the start angle of the arc. The start angle is reported clockwise, with zero degrees at the 0 o'clock position. Defines the sweep angle of the arc. The arc will begin at startAngle and continue sweepAngle degrees, with a value of 000 resulting in a full circle. Positive numbers are clockwise and negative numbers are counterclockwise.

Lynda Grace An Hour Away: Darn Ross and That LYS Lady! I am always on the prowl looking for an LYS that I have not been to before. I have none in my immediate area so the few I frequent are an hour away. Through a Ravelry reference I discovered a new to me shop. Of course once I discover these gems, I become obsessed with wanting to visit and explore. This hankering has been going on for a few weeks now. I tried to control the urge, though, because of....The Dreaded Stash. So anyway on this past sunny Saturday, I asked Ross if he wanted to go for a drive. Even after he found out where I wanted to go he agreed. Ross will do anything to get out beyond the gates of our Active Adult Community. I said, "You know I cannot buy any more yarn. I just want to look." He said, "uh huh" with a knowing smile. "No really, I mean it I am not buying any more yarn!" He again said, "uh huh". It was a nice drive. We were in an area we had not been to before. The shop was in a cute little strip mall. We walked in and of course there was the obligatory table with three women knitting away. One of the women smiled and asked if she could help. "No, not right now, I said. I just want to browse." I think I mumbled something about already having too much yarn. So as I walked around touching all of the yarn I could feel myself starting to get the craving. The owner of the shop was following me with her eyes, making friendly comments about classes they offer, and how once a month the knitting group gets together and has dinner in one of the local restaurants. I said, "Oh that sounds like fun, but I am an hour away. I'm just browsing. And I really have way too much yarn already." While making my way through each of the aisles I noticed a beautiful lacy scarf. I stopped in front of it and of course had to feel it. The owner got up from the table and came over. "Isn't that yarn beautiful?" she asked. I agreed and told her that I loved the pattern and have been wanting to try knitting lace. She said, "Oh you will love this pattern, it's so simple." And then she rattled off the pattern sequence of yarn overs and knits and purls. As I continued to finger the scarf, she cunningly said, "If you buy the yarn, I will give you the pattern." Darn her! "Oh, please, I said. I just cannot, cannot possibly buy any more yarn, I have way too much already. " I looked helplessly at Ross, wanting him to rescue me. He said "Oh go ahead, just get it. My treat. It will be part of your birthday present." Darn him! "But I have so much yarn already!", I whined. The owner said, "You will love this pattern so much that you'll want to start it as soon as you get home, so it really won't ever even become part of "The Dreaded Stash". The other two women sitting at the table chimed in nodding in agreement. Walking out the door with three skeins of my beautiful new sparkly yarn, I felt pretty good. I had stuck to my convictions about not buying any more yarn. After all it wasn't my fault, the LYS lady talked me into it and Ross made the purchase. And then I made the familiar promise to myself. "I will not buy any more yarn....well at least not until the next time." So I have started the scarf and it really is a beautiful pattern. it is a lovely pattern.. and quite technically you did not buy anymore yarn. ... Ross did! I am still working on the scarf. I am at the point of "when is this ever going to get done?!"

ASKING which industries are going to be most impacted by Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the coming years and decades, is much like someone in 0000s asking which industries are going to be most impacted by computer chips and computer software. In 0000s, it was possible to see that computers were going to revolutionize retail and medicine, but not to forecast the advent of Amazon or Taobao. Prediction of AI's future influence is likely even harder than was the case for earlier technologies, due to the exponential nature of change in an era of unprecedented connectivity. What is clear is that AI and its associated technologies will continue to advance. In Southeast Asia alone, the adoption of AI technologies stood at 00 per cent in 0000, a marked increase from the 0 per cent in the previous year. The use of AI will only trend upwards as organisations turn to this technology to plug the skills gap created by the digital transformation of traditional industries. This is set against the backdrop of a potential talent deficit of 00 million workers across Asia Pacific by 0000. Before we get there, we must acknowledge that AI will generally not take over the human workforce all at once. Instead, it will start by prompting businesses to reorganize their structures to best leverage the strengths AI has to offer. In doing so, pieces of people's jobs will be reallocated to AI, giving way to the creation of new roles and requiring humans to upskill themselves accordingly. For instance, AI will first take on more routine accounting work such as calculations and backend processes, similar to intelligent adaptive Excel macros, while allowing accountants to handle strategic decision-making and customer interaction. Only with the emergence of AGI over time, will we see AI taking over these roles and by then, only a handful of humans will be needed to oversee the running of an organisation's entire finance function. When this happens, we would be living in the reality of the hyper-intelligent workplace, where humans will simply provide mission critical thinking, while incorporating the intuitive skill sets of AI and robots for increased productivity. A key thing to note is that AI will not instantaneously eliminate jobs or job functions. Using the case of biological lab testing as an example, equipment which are mostly already computerized will become more automated and intuitive. Lab robots will then start bridging the gaps between the lab equipment - be it carrying materials from one machine to the other, or keeping each equipment informed about their respective test subjects, parameters and results. This weeds out the role of a lab technician gradually as it is replaced by an integrated lab robot system that takes verbal instructions directly from the scientist in charge of the lab. Eventually, the scientist's role will mainly be to rubber-stamp the AI's suggestions, knowing that what he needs from the AI, has been effectively executed. Of course, this is not to say that there will be a widespread of automation within all industries. While generic graphic designs can now be done with AI design programs, the conceptualization of deeply creative new images and visual themes will remain largely in the domain of humans, especially on highly subjective matters which require a highly nuanced understanding of consumer taste and preference. In general, one may say that among the last job roles to be eliminated will be those relying heavily on novel creativity, strategic decision-making, critical thinking and physical manipulations in life-or-death situations. Yet, among these roles, the routine and labor-intensive tasks will most likely be automated first as that is where most cost-savings will be obtained. To put into context - there is more money to be saved by automating car driving than helicopter piloting, and more to be saved by automating medical research than particle physics research. While that is almost sure to be a rocky road given the realities of geopolitical issues and income inequality, projects such as the decentralized AI movement led by SingularityNET aims to smoothen the path towards it in a democratic and participatory way. ConnecTechAsia is organised by UBM, which in June 0000 combined with Informa PLC to become a leading B0B information services group and the largest B0B Events organiser in the world.

Sacramento Kings rookies Jon Brockman and Donte Green competed in an impromptu dunk contest after the last practice of the season. Brockman displayed leaping ability rarely seen during his four years with the Washington Huskies. On his second to last attempt, the 0-foot-0, 000-pound power forward took off from just inside the free throw line and floated - that's right floated - to the rim before flushing it home. Earlier, Brockman leapt, moved the ball between his legs from left to right and hammered in dunk. Other dunks consisted of various windmills and mid-air acrobatics. The dunk contest is almost dead at the NBA All-Star game, but maybe if Brockman entered it he could spice things up again. - On it's pay site, ESPN college basketball analyst Doug Gottlieb examines every major conference and gives letter grades to each team. Arizona, Stanford and USC received a C, Oregon, Oregon State and UCLA got a D and Washington State was the only school to earn a F.

Now that gardening season is approaching, dog owners should be aware that a commonly sold gardening product poses a serious health risk to our beloved pets. The product is called Cocoa Mulch and it is sold in many gardening centers such as Home Depot and Forman's Garden Supply, and is available on internet gardening web sites as well. Cocoa Mulch is made from the spent shells of chocolate production. Cocoa beans, as well as the shells contain the stimulants caffeine, and theobromine. Dogs are highly sensitive to these chemicals, called methylxanthines. Depending on the amount a dog consumes the results can range from gastrointestinal upset, to rapid heart rate, muscle tremors, seizures, and even death. According to some warnings on the internet several dogs died last year, although only one that we know of has been verified. In that case the dog died within 00 hours of eating Cocoa Mulch. There have been many cases of non-lethal poisoning from this product reported by veterinarians. Dogs are very attracted to the product because it smells like chocolate. Unfortunately it has even higher concentrations of the chemicals toxic to dogs than milk chocolate, which is known to be toxic to dogs in large quantities. The paragraph below from the ASPCA web site compares the differences between the two. The ASPCA recommends that if you suspect your dog has eaten cocoa bean mulch, you immediately contact your veterinarian or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center (0-000-000-0000). Treatment will depend on how much your dog has eaten, when it was eaten, and whether your dog is sick. Recommended care may include placing your dog under veterinary observation, inducing vomiting, and/or controlling a rapid heartbeat or seizures. If you are interested in reading more about Cocoa Mulch you can check out the Hershey's website Cocoa Mulch and other pet poisons.

On November 0th, Chris Smith (@chrismsnz) of Insomnia Security alerted the Laravel development team of a method of bypassing the CSRF verification in Laravel 0 applications. Note that the token comparison has been changed from a != comparison to a !== comparison. This will prevent specially crafted JSON requests from bypassing the filter. You also need to update to orchestra/foundation version v0.0.00 or v0.0.0 to receive the security fixes for CSRF on the administration/backend interface. If you are using the CSRF protection feature of Laravel/Orchestra Platform, it is recommended that you apply this patch immediately.

The casino online sites found on our website have been specifically tried and tested by our team to ensure your total satisfaction in whatever game you choose to play! Live dealer games are the next best thing to laying down your chips on the Las Vegas strip. Your Favourite Casino Games at the Tips of Your Fingers! Live Dealer Roulette remains one of the ever popular casino games with ZA online casino gamblers. You've grown to love playing this game at land-based casinos. Soon you'll find that the online version provides an experience similar to the real game. To start off, every aspect of the playing experience is as real as can be. The croupier actions and interactions, the spinning of the wheel and the dropping of the ball are all a part of the real money game. This is because the croupier is real and so is all the gaming equipment normally found in any land-based casino! The great part about playing online is that you can be at the casino without ever leaving your bedroom. You save loads of time and money on transport, accommodation, food, attire...you name it! You can start focusing on making real money first thing in the morning. In the end, all you really need is a laptop at your disposal! In addition to Live Dealer Roulette, one can also enjoy Live Blackjack, Baccarat and Hold'Em! The thrill offered by these games in the real world can now also be experienced online, thanks to the twenty-four hour filmed presence of a real croupier. You can easily observe every action he makes from the comfort of your sofa. The online casino live dealer version of Hold'Em is fascinating in its own right as during this table game, players compete against the dealer instead of one another. Playing against a human dealer from a different state or country drastically increases the game's appeal! While we're not going to send you running to your local computer store to buy the most state-of-the-art computer system (Do Not Do This!) we do recommend a few minimum hardware requirements. While this mode of playing doesn't require extensive graphics processing, a high-speed internet connection would be very helpful. Keeping in mind that you'll have to keep up with the rest of the players in the game when participating in an online live dealer casino feed, an extremely slow connection will not be suitable. You would at least need a Pentium 0 processor and 000 Mb of RAM. You wouldn't want to ruin a good game with video lag, as it would certainly take away from the realism of your experience! You will also need a decent sound card, and a comfortably-sized monitor. All these are pretty much standard in most computers today, so before you rush out to buy anything you think you need, we recommend trying out an online casino or two, just to make sure! As we've seen, online casino live dealer games offer quite a number of advantages over traditional online games. The one perk we cannot emphasise enough is that game plays out in real time. Traditional self-automated software generated games tend to play much quicker than real-world casinos. The reason for this is the following - in traditional online gaming, you, a human being are playing against an algorithm. A computer code programmed to perform mechanically without fail. Live Dealer Online Casino is the future of online gambling as these games are supervised by a real croupier, who not only brings his vast real-world experience to the table, but more importantly, his individual character and an opportunity at genuine human interaction. Another major advantage of online casino live dealer games is that real cards and actual gaming equipment such as roulettes and blackjack tables are utilised. Seeing every card dealt by a real person directly from the shoe gives you peace of mind about the possibility of the game being rigged, leaving you relaxed enough to focus on enjoying the game! In the end, gaming really is about human connections. Players sitting down at crowded tables, getting to know each other through the unprecedented thrill of a great card game for real money. A strangers studying his opponent's body language, trying to read his dead-pan poker face. The real gaming experience is about men and women passionate about their games trusting the croupier's knowledge and attitude will make their experience at that particular table a pleasant one. While technology, and especially the internet, brought things so much closer to the comfort of your home, the connection between the player and other human souls has sadly become non-existing, stinting the best part of the whole experience for the individual player. This is now thankfully a thing of the past. Thanks to the top-notch online casino South Africa live dealer found on our website, all you need to do to re-live the exhilarating experience found only at a real-world casino and make some real cash is to check out our games and click on the one that intrigues you most! These games combine the convenience of playing on the internet with the thrill of being in a casino. Online, this is done by using live video stream of actual dealers behind authentic casino equipment. Players can see the action as it unfolds, while the online casino software takes care of all the bets and payouts in real time. Are they South Africa based? Some live dealer games can be based in South Africa but most leading casinos have their own locations where they host the action for players from around the world to enjoy. It is very safe to play online games with live dealers since they basically follow the same concepts found in a real casino, while having the extra security provided by the website. How do they compare standard online games? Live dealer games are quite different than the standard online versions since they are played with real croupiers. This means that there are set periods where bets can be placed and the action goes on at a set pace. Also, they add a community aspect since you can chat with other players at the table and also with the dealer. Live Roulette, Live Blackjack, Live Casino Hold'em and Live Baccarat are the most popular games in this category and these are the ones which are commonly found at most online casinos. Yes, top online casinos make sure that the action never stops and a website can have an entire team of dealers to cover shifts around the clock. It is certainly possible to play games on mobile devices as long as the online casino covers this platform. This can also depend on the developer which created the games. Live dealer games, like all the other games at a reliable gaming website, are safe, fair and secure. The guarantee that they are not rigged comes from independent companies that verify the options in order to protect all customers.

The first discovery of E. coli (Escherichia coli) in the human colon was made in 0000 in Germany. Nearly every strand of E. coli is harmless in humans, while others like serotype 0000: H0 cause significant and severe symptoms in individuals that are otherwise healthy. Many severe cases of food poisoning are the result of deadly E. coli bacteria infection that can lead to serious injury, long term illness or death. Abdominal Pain and Cramping - Sudden severe cramping of the stomach and intestines is the first indicator of food poisoning followed a few hours later by diarrhea. The constant cramping of the intestines can produce bloody stools. Nausea and Sometimes Vomiting - Individual suffering from an infection of E. coli commonly experience nausea. However, vomiting is not as common nor is fever likely to occur. Fatigue - The continuous bouts of diarrhea and vomiting can cause a loss of fluids and electrolytes, leaving the infected individual feeling fatigued. The sensation of being sick, tired and exhausted tends to last much longer than other symptoms. Rehydration is essential to recovery. Many of the common symptoms of this devastating foodborne illness will change throughout the progression of the infection. Contaminated Foods - Any existing E. coli in foods can easily cause an infection when the food product is raw or undercooked. The contamination can also easily spread because of ineffective or lacking hygiene practices during the process or preparation of food. As an example, restaurant employees using toilet facilities without washing their hands can easily spread serious E. coli infections to customers. Contaminated Liquids - Although municipal water sources undergo various health measures to ensure public safety, water can easily become contaminated with life-threatening E. coli or other harmful bacteria. In addition, infection can circulate in a variety of waters including swimming pools, lakes and wells. Physical Contact - Individuals can acquire E. coli when coming into physical contact with infected animals or other people. Practicing proper hygiene such as washing hands and using disinfectants is a way to prevent cross contamination. Serious complications can arise from a mild case of E. coli when the infection is not properly treated. Unfortunately, because the symptoms of stomach cramping, nausea, fever and diarrhea are so common in other conditions, many infected individuals fail to seek proper medical care. However, failing to obtain immediate medical attention can produce life-threatening complications including HUS (hemolytic uremic syndrome) or death. If the case of E. coli is allowed to progress, it can turn into a life-threatening foodborne illness requiring extensive hospitalization and long term medical care. As a result, injured victims often suffer serious economic and non-economic losses and damages. Because of that, they often seek the skills of an experienced E. coli food poisoning attorney to handle their case for compensation. Rosenfeld Injury Lawyers LLC represent victims suffering food poisoning, food allergy, anaphylaxis and other foodborne illnesses. Our team of skilled attorneys has experience in handling food poisoning lawsuits and claims for recompense. We provide legal counseling and advice when filing a claim for financial compensation. Our law offices can provide you various legal options to hold food manufacturers, preparers, processors, packagers, restaurants and others legally accountable for their neglect.

What is a Project Investment Justification (PIJ)? The Strategic Oversight group, within the Arizona Department of Administration's Arizona Strategic Enterprise Technology (ADOA-ASET) office, helps State agencies, departments, boards, and commissions develop business cases for Information Technology (IT) projects and investments. This information is captured in a document called a Project Investment Justification (PIJ) form. The PIJ form gathers the needed information in a way that allows analysis and evaluation across all requests, reduces the time needed for review, and assures that the value to the public and risk are clearly considered. The required forms are posted below, along with links to the State Procurement Office for information on regulations, statutes, and other procurement related activities. The actual PIJ form is a document with several sections that is used to gather information from an Agency/Board/Commission that is required to explain the project, its benefits, and the projected costs. The information provided allows ADOA-ASET to complete an analysis and evaluation of the project from an enterprise perspective, and assures that the value to the public and risks are addressed. The required forms and additional information regarding Strategic Oversight can be found under Resources on the ADOA-ASET web-site, along with links to related statutes, policies and procurement related activities. The Strategic Oversight Team is here to assist you through the PIJ process and to collaborate with you to ensure that the right solution is being applied to the IT initiative at hand. The review process starts at the Agency/Board/Commission level with the identification of an IT project which needs to be completed. An example of the typical flow of the PIJ process can be found on the ADOA-ASET website at: http://aset.azdoa.gov/strategic-oversight. A quick overview of the process is listed below, broken up into two phases: Agency phase, and ADOA-ASET Strategic Oversight Phase. *The Strategic Oversight team is available to help, or discuss any item at any phase in the process (including prior to a PIJ even being written) to answer any questions, provide guidance, or help determine if a PIJ is needed. What will Strategic Oversight do? Strategic Oversight is here to assist an Agency through the process for obtaining an approval from the State CIO and, if necessary, ITAC for your PIJ. If you have a complex project coming down the pipe that you want to begin preparing for approval, let the Oversight team know. Our team of Strategic Oversight Program Managers is available to meet with you. As part of our role, Strategic Oversight will also help provide quality assurance for the State and ensure that a solution has been properly vetted before the paperwork is submitted for approval by the State CIO and ITAC. When does a PIJ need ITAC approval? Generally speaking, ITAC approval is needed when the development costs are greater than $0 million. In addition to providing ITAC members with a copy of the PIJ, as well as ADOA-ASET's analysis and recommendation, a presentation created by the Agency/Board/Commission will also be given to ITAC in the review meeting. What forms are needed to obtain PIJ approval? PIJ Form - In this document, an explanation of the problem will be provided, along with, solution, financials, and other relevant information for ADOA-ASET review. The PIJ form includes an embedded spreadsheet used to provide detailed financial information, an itemized list, a risk matrix, and areas of impact. Supplemental information - Copies of relevant vendor quotes and other supporting information should be provided. What is the process after approval? All of the stakeholders identified in the PIJ will receive a notification from Strategic Oversight stating that the project is approved. This will include the approval letter signed by the State CIO, which will be emailed to the Agency/Board/Commission Director, and will document any conditions that have been applied to the PIJ approval. Once approved, additional approvals may be secured as required from the Joint Legislative Budget Committee, the Office of Strategic Planning and Budgeting, and the State Procurement Office. What is the difference between development cost and operational costs? In general terms, development costs are about implementing projects; operational costs are about taking care of what has been implemented. Development costs are tracked by Strategic Oversight and cease when the project is completed. Operational costs are ongoing costs that will be incurred as a result of the project being implemented, and are not tracked by Strategic Oversight. In Arizona, IT costs are tracked using the following categories: Professional & Outside Services (P&OS) (e.g., contractor support), hardware, software, communications, facilities, licensing and maintenance fees, and other. Any one of these categories can include development and operational costs. For instance, software purchases and first year licensing fees would be considered a development cost (see year 0 box below). On-going software licensing and maintenance fees are considered operational costs (see year 0 box below). Do I need to report other funding sources? Yes, the total funding for the project must be included in the PIJ, regardless of whether it involves State funds or any other type of funds. My project has received approval...now what? The contact identified in the PIJ will receive a Start-up Event Status Report from the assigned Strategic Oversight Manager and notification that the document needs to be completed prior to any expenditure of funds. The e-mail notification will give clear instructions on what to do and will include contact information should any questions arise. When are status reports due? ADOA-ASET will inform the Agency whether the project is on a monthly or quarterly reporting cycle in the start-up request. This may change once the document is submitted or as the project progresses. Monthly project status reports are due by the 00th of the following month. For instance, the May project status reports are due to ADOA-ASET by June 00th. Quarterly project status reports are due by the 00th of the month after the quarter closes. For instance, the FY00 Q0 project status report is due to ADOA-ASET by October 00th. When is the final project status report due after my project completes? Final project status reports are due once the project has completed and a final accounting of all costs can be provided. Where does the financial information on the project status reports come from? The "Current Month Spend" in the project status report should reflect actual expenditures that have posted to the Arizona Financial Information System (AFIS) during the reporting period, which can be for the month or quarter. Only development costs are reported in the Project Status Report. What if the project has Automation Projects Fund (APF) funding? Are there requirements specific to APF funding? APF funding comes with an additional set of requirements including the execution of interagency service agreements and APF budget, milestones and key accomplishment reports. Please contact your Strategic Oversight Program Manager for information on all requirements associated with APF funds. What signatures are needed and when?

This posting will be painful for some of you, but necessary. Please try to remember that what does not kill you just might make you stronger. At least, it will enlighten you. Ignorance might be bliss but it isn't if you step on the toes of another person. You've received an invitation. You've studied it for hours. The invitation does not list your child by name nor does it mention that children are invited. The invitation may be in written form or verbal; it does not matter. The rules apply for each scenario. What do you do? In the midst of your bewilderment you will recall these words: THEY ARE NOT INVITED. You are considering bringing your bundle of joy, toddler of terror or terrific teenager anyway. STOP. THEY ARE NOT INVITED. You will call the host and ask if you can bring your child. This was clearly an oversight. 0.) Politely decline the invitation. You will do so without passive-aggressive techniques or long, drawn out explanations. But what if your babysitter cancels at the last-minute? You may think this is the opportunity you've been secretly hoping for! Hope springs eternal after all! Now, you can go to the event and bring your child! If your host is adamant that you attend with your child in tow, well then, you may consider it. Before you do, please consider if the event is appropriate for your child before accepting. CONGRATULATIONS! You are now enlightened.

As well As handling a number of the chief aspects of your WordPress site (something we are going to be covering in more detail below), also supplying you with everything you need to begin a new site, one of the main selling points of this innovative service is access to one of those participating ThemeForest themes as part of your subscription payment. Having a Single point of contact for domain registration, website hosting, subject provision, and also the management of items such as website updates and copies sounds very handy, but is that this service worth your money? And does this deliver the functionality your site requirements? Envato Aim to simplify the process of launching a WordPress website with their brand new web hosting service. Now, instead of registering a domain name with one company, purchasing a WordPress theme from another, then signing up for a web hosting service elsewhere, not to mention connecting all those pieces together, with Envato Hosted, you are able to access all these elements through one account, with one recurring monthly payment. Not only That, but the Envato Hosted staff will even take good care of website backups, core software updates and much more to help make sure your website is running smoothly. The Advantage of a one-stop store for all your WordPress site needs does sound attractive. We'll cover the pricing details in more detail later in this review, but at $00.00 a month, it's clear this is not affordable, entry-level hosting. So let's see what you get for your money. The Envato Hosted theme installation and installation service is excellent for anybody who is either new to WordPress or brief on time. After a clean installation of WordPress was performed, your subject of choice (in the available choices ) will be installed and activated in your new site. If You already have a WordPress website, you'll be very happy to know the Envato Hosted package includes a migration of your website and its content into your hosting account. It also includes optional domain name registration and setup, and links your domain to your server room to make sure your site is seen at your preferred URL. Unfortunately, At the time of writing, just a small choice of WordPress themes were available within the Envato Hosted service. Hopefully, in the future, more theme authors will choose to opt in, however, for now, you can choose from the best selling, multipurpose Avada, Enfold, Bridge, Jupiter, and The0 topics, among others. As Part of the managed hosting security steps, the Envato Hosted system engineers are proactive in scanning sites for malware and other problems, and DDoS protection can also be in place to keep your site online. When an issue is detected, the support team will begin work solving it, while also notifying you of this circumstance. This proactive approach also applies to assisting with hacked websites. Considering It's not unheard of for some internet hosts to simply take your site offline whenever they detect a potential security problem, it's good to find that the Envato Hosted team will get to work once a problem is encountered, while also keeping you in the loop as to what's happening. Website Snapshots are also taken nightly, and copies are kept for 00 days (and stored offsite in Amazon S0 storage for extra safety). Right now, if you'd like to restore a backup, you will need to start a ticket to ask the service team to carry out this task. But, Envato Hosted hopes to empower self-initiated backups and restores in the first quarter of 0000. Regrettably, That the Envato Hosted service does not contain any email hosting or management solutions. However, you can join your own Envato hosting accounts to a few of the supported email providers. Therefore, If you are already using an email provider like google Apps or Office 000, you can connect your domain name into the service. If not, registering with one of these services is the very best alternative for receiving and sending mails together with your website's domain name. After You've signed up using Envato Hosted, you can contact the service team round the clock. Tickets can be opened from inside your Envato hosting accounts dash, giving you a central place for managing your website and helpdesk correspondence. Although Live chat has been considered for the future, there's no phone support service, with email being the only way to get in touch with the team. During the testing for this particular review, the Envato Hosted support team reacted quickly to any tickets which were opened. Once You have signed up with Envato Hosted, you will be able to log in to your account dashboard. In the dashboard area, you can see your busy hosting plans, the particulars of your WordPress website, and other important information. We'll Cover the utilization limitations from the pricing section. However, it's possible to easily view how much of your visitor, disk quota, and bandwidth allowance you have absorbed from the Envato Hosted dashboard. Having Your selection from a selection of high-quality WordPress themes, and all of the other fantastic features covered above, is good. But maybe the most significant reason to choose one web host over another is how quickly they could serve your website to your visitors. This Guide explains why website speed is so essential. Suffice to say, if you would like to have more visitors, a better consumer experience, and increased goal conversion rates, then you should be doing all you can to improve the rate of your WordPress site. Bearing that in mind, let's look at the loading times we experienced while analyzing Envato Hosted with this review. As This is a hands-on Envato Hosted review, for testing purposes, we did sign up and launch a brand new WordPress site. Although the time from starting the signup procedure to being able to log into the new WordPress website wasn't instant, it just took about five seconds. However, an important portion of the time was spent staring at a screen wondering what was happening. There Were a few hiccups along the way, such as the links into the website and control panel which were sent over not yet being busy. This was probably due to domain name system (DNS) configurations requiring a while to spread, and also the new URL being in the process of going live. However, because there's no mention of those delays and potential issues during the setup procedure, it marginally taints the suitability of Envato Hosted for inexperienced WordPress users. In General, However, getting started with Envato Hosted and launch a new WordPress site is relatively simple. You really can register a domain, select a theme, and select which demo to have set up, all through a single signup procedure. However, while everything did work, the registration procedure felt a little rough around the edges in comparison with that of Envato Hosted's competitions. For the Sake of comparison, another evaluation WordPress website, additionally using Avada and the same Agency demonstration, took just over a second longer to load on a cheap, back-end shared hosting accounts. Pingdom is a popular monitoring agency, and Among the greatest ways to assess the operation of a web site. After signing up using Envato Hosted, the Avada motif was set up and the Agency demo site content erased. As The Avada Agency demo homepage includes a multimedia slider with video content and other large documents, it had been determined a standard page in the demonstration, composed of images and text, would yield more relevant results. When the evaluation WordPress website was put up, Pingdom recorded the loading times of the internal blog post at 00-minute intervals. After Monitoring site speed with Pingdom, the typical load time within the previous seven days for our WordPress site, hosted by Envato using the Avada motif and its Agency demo, was 0.00 seconds, using a YSlowperformance grade of 00/000. The loading times were recorded at regular intervals during the testing interval. Website Uptime was also monitored with Pingdom. Throughout the testing, six instances of downtime were detected, together with the site inaccessible for 00 minutes in total. This resulted in an uptime of 00.00% based on Pingdom. Although the website returned to its available state without any intervention, the longest amount of downtime - as can be seen in the picture below - was a somewhat worrying nine minutes. This Cost also includes any qualifying WordPress theme from ThemeForest, such as best-selling selections like Avada, X Theme, and Enfold. Also included in the ceremony is the setup of your chosen motif and its own demo, in addition to continuing support for your site. Free migration of an existing WordPress site to your hosting accounts is also included. As Mentioned, because the Envato Hosted service is completely managed, the team will treat WordPress core updates, provide base-level safety, track your website for errors, and back up the website daily. When it Comes to use, your own $00.00 per month or $000 per year includes 000,000 monthly visits, 0GB of disk space, and 000GB of monthly bandwidth. These quotas are soft limits, and nothing automatic will occur should you move over them. Rather, if excess usage is detected, expect to be contacted by the support team to talk about a solution that works for both parties. There are no overage charges in place at the moment. However, Neither of these rival options includes a premium ThemeForest WordPress motif and installation. The allure of this Envato Hosted service is having everything in 0 place, under one account, such as your domain name, hosting service, WordPress theme, and support staff. Components is a service from Envato That aims to provide creators and makers having an ever-expanding library of digital assets for their projects. If you want access to a large and growing collection of movies, sound files, photos, graphics, illustrations, fonts, HTML templates, and WordPress themes and plugins, as well as other content then Envato Elements could be just what you're searching for. Furthermore, Envato Elements subscribers now also get access to 0,000 video classes and eBooks from EnvatoTuts+. As a result of this, you not only get access to nearly 0 million electronic resources but also the educational content that will assist you work together efficiently. In this Envato Components review, we will research what this service has to offer, how it functions, and how much it costs to help you determine if this is a good alternative for your requirements. Although Avada is among the most popular WordPress topics about, its wealth of features and performance may be overkill for some projects. If your requirements are more small and you'd love to know how Envato Hosted performs with a more minimal WordPress theme, we tested a site with the free Twenty Seventeen motif from the WordPress.org team. Unlike Avada, the free Twenty Seventeen motif doesn't include or rely upon any plugins. Therefore, this no frills WordPress theme gave Envato Hosted a great opportunity to demonstrate how quickly it could deliver a website. With a mean loading period of 000 milliseconds, and also a grade performance more than seven days of analyzing, Envato Hosted definitely has the potential to quickly serve a WordPress site to your audience. Even though An uptime of 00.00percent was listed by Pingdom during our first round of testing, there wasn't any downtime listed in our next seven-day period of testing. Your Requirements and the final configuration of your site will likely sit somewhere in between one of the full-featured Avada demos and the minimal Twenty Seventeen theme. Your results will surely vary from ours, but ours ought to provide you a rough idea of what to expect from Envato Hosted. What's more, with a seven-day free trial, then you should have sufficient time to perform speed testing of your own site before making a final choice on Envato Hosted. It's Also worth pointing out that though Envato Hosted does not prohibit using any specific plugins (like any other managed WordPress hosts), they do indicate avoiding caching plugins, as Envato already applies server caching to all websites in their platform. However, while Envato Hosted doesn't yet preserve their own content delivery network (CDN), you are free to take advantage of a third-party CDN of your own choice - another popular approach to speed up a WordPress website. Testing The rate of a web site and its own web host is not as easy as it might appear. Running a manual test with a reputable service such as Pingdom or even GTmetrix can produce wildly varying outcomes from one moment to another. To counteract this, for our tests, the premium Pingdom service was used to mechanically record the rate of this test website at 00-minute spans around the clock for seven days. There Are numerous factors that could impact the load times of your site, including your choice of motif, which plugins you're using, what type of content you are publishing, just how many visitors are trying to get your site at one period, and where these visitors are situated. Nevertheless, these test results should give you some notion of what to expect from Envato Hosted. Envato Elements is A subscription service that offers you access to over 000,000 downloadable digital assets for your own projects. To keep things easy, Envato Elements provides two pricing strategies - monthly and annual - with both encouraging unlimited downloads.

Are you looking for a way to engage delegates in real-time discussion at your conference? Perhaps you're seeking delegate responses to particular questions or just trying to ‘take the temperature' of the room? Social Media is the perfect channel for real-time discussion. It's easy to use and natural to attendees, it's everywhere and it's simple to integrate. If you're a conference organiser, manager or have suddenly found yourself in control of your next company event, here are a few simple things you can do to integrate social media effectively. A #Hashtag is simply a word or a phrase with the # symbol in front and is used to bring uncategorized information together in a discoverable and scannable way. #Hashtags don't need to be purchased, created or registered, they just exist as soon as they are used. You need to select a unique, simple and memorable #hashtag for your event for delegates to use. A good conference hashtag might included the name or abbreviation of your event, company or even the location or year. For example #SMACC0000 (Social Medial and Critical Care 0000 Conference) or #TLC00 (Tech Leadership Conference 0000). Keep them short and simple where possible and avoid difficult characters (like underscores or punctuation) so they are easy to type. Once you've made your choice share it everywhere you can, on your website, on venue signage, on your presenter slides etc. Keep track of attendee comments and Tweets throughout the conference and be sure to respond to questions to increase engagement. Nobody likes being part of a one-sided conversation. Pay attention to retweets, they indicate a popular comment and watching them can help you make changes to ensure your conference is as good as it can be. Go further and start conversations by asking questions; get feedback on what is important to you or distribute information about your event. Finally, if you really want to make a splash and increase engagement display a Crowd Convergence visualisation or "Twitter Wall" on the big screens in your venue. Delegates can send in their messages via Twitter, Facebook, Google+ or Instagram and have them displayed on the big screen. Speakers can see instant feedback on their presentation and respond to questions from the delegates. Worried about profanity or off-topic messages being displayed? Don't be - with the Crowd Convergence platform you can automatically filter and then manually moderated every piece of content before it goes to the big screen. You are in complete control. Start your free trial of Crowd Convergence today.

even if it wasn't that great it certainly looks yummy! I hate when I buy delicious looking fruit and it turns out not tasting right. Kiwi jam sounds interesting! Oh, I feel the same way about being disappointed with fruits. Especially we need to be more careful when buying imported ones here because they must be shipped before ripening. As for kiwi sauce, perhaps it's good with fried camembert. The tonyuu pudding on your blog looks so yummy. Matcha (and azuki) must make a good accompaniment with tonyuu. Kiwi sauce with fried camembert sounds like an interesting combination.

Of course, we already have benefited from the world around us. The Wright Brothers studied pigeons while designing their first flying machine. And those tiny hooks on burrs inspired the invention of Velcro. That's progress, but we really need to kick it up a couple of notches. Nature creates brilliant colors without dyes; we use an estimated 000,000 metric tons of dyes for our fabrics each year. In 0000, Los Angeles commuters spent about 000,000,000 hours stuck in traffic; when was the last time you saw birds in a traffic jam? I hope this gives you an idea of where the field is going. There's a lot more information on the Institute's website. They accept donations, too. And after having lived in the Los Angeles area for four years, I wish them well. What Are Your Germs Saying? Who Really Was Herbert Hoover?

Photo: Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety is crashing smaller cars up against larger cars of the same manufacturer so parents can judge which is the safest ride for their teen driver. The crash test results show the larger the car... the better the safety for an inexperienced driver. IIHS Vice President for Research Jessica Cicchino says, "Bigger, heavier vehicles are safer than smaller lighter vehicles. So we don't have any smaller cars on our list." Forces on crash test dummies in smaller cars were much greater than those in larger vehicles including the higher likelihood of head injuries. The Insurance Institute's new list of best used cars for teen drivers includes 00 Best Choices which start under $00,000 including a 0000 or newer Volkswagen Passat or a 0000 or newer Ford Fusion. It also includes 00 Good Choices under 00 grand including 0000 or newer Chevy Malibu or a 0000 or newer Chrylser 000. It doesn't include any minicars and avoids excessive horsepower vehicles. "We think electronic stability control is a must for teenage drivers," Cicchino says. "It helps drivers maintain control when they are going around curves and wet roads." So Moms and Dads, you have 000 vehicles to choose from, including some that cost under $0,000.

With the risk of being the dullest ever opening to a blog post, did you know that, according to www.worldometers.info there have been 0,000,000 (and rising) blog posts published today? How do they know? I've no idea, but for the purposes of a flowing intro I won't be asking too many questions here. With so many eager beavers tapping away at our keyboards, using our blogs to communicate to an audience, be it big or small, it's no surprise that brands have jumped right on in there and asked you, dear blogger, to spread a message on their behalf. Now it's all fun and games when that very first email from a PR lands in your inbox. I was over the moon when I read that "Chill Factore want to work with you" because I flaming well wanted to work with Chill Factore too. I know the response, "I jumped at the chance" is the standard write up response regarding any offer of collaborating, but I did genuinely jump at the chance. The PR booked me in on a ski lesson at the level of my choice (anxious Bambi level please), with the agreement to write about my experience afterwards. At the time I was in the process of learning to ski anyway so it worked out splendidly. I could genuinely rave about my experience and honestly recommend the ski lessons because I loved going. Blogging, in the beginning for sure, is a hobby that mainly consists of hitting publish and sending your beloved posts into an abyss. I would hedge my bets that all bloggers have asked themselves at some point "hellooooo, is there anybody out there? does ANYONE care about what I'm writing?" So when you're actually asked to write about something it's hugely reassuring. It's basically someone saying you're doing ok at this, and that's exciting. I thought I'd hit the big time even if in reality it was just the big slope. Now for the downside. It's not always quite as straight forward as grabbing your faux fur ski jacket and heading out to snow plough care free for the morning. For a newbie, deciding whether to say yes or no to the offers you receive, can be tricky. There comes a time when you're faced with a quandary which is, in a nutshell, do I have to promote products that I'm just not that into if I want to succeed? The initial reaction to this question is, or should be, a flat out NO absolutely not, I would never include anything on my blog that I don't absolutely love. But, when you're new to the game and haven't exactly got Channel hammering down your door, collaborations with other brands provide you priceless experience and practice. Not forgetting the fact that it's fun. I enjoy being sent an item and seeing what content I can create with it. It's a toss up - should you polish the truth slightly and gain experience or stay absolutely true to yourself? In an ideal world you would agree to review a product and aim to create an objective write up BUT that's easier said than done when have to send your content back to the PR for a final ok. Write a damning review and they won't work with you again. I'll be honest with you, I've been lucky enough to have been sent a few items that I was excited about, but one or two that in reality I wouldn't have gone into a shop and bought for myself. These situations can leave you with a bad taste in your mouth (not literally, although that can't be said for all products). You might not be head over heels with excitement about the offer on the table but building those relationships could lead to bigger and better things. It is after all, practice. Maybe your reader might not quite buy it that you simply love a certain item that you've never once mentioned or even alluded to before and now you're 'obsessed with...', but, is there not an understanding? Ask yourself this, do you think that Nicole Scherzinger, this very minute is tucking into a Muller Corner? Do you think that Gary Lineker is, this very second in the midst of a panic stricken search through his kitchen cupboards, desperate to get his hands on another bag of Walkers crisps? Do you think, even for a minute, that Kate Moss wears Rimmel makeup? Nah, me neither. Do we love her any less? Nope not really. Although some bloggers may say they've never included anything on their blogs that they didn't absolutely love, I'm sure most have at some point in the early days. Promoting the odd product here and there seems to all be part of the blogging game. I suppose then the question is, do you want to play? A line that you refuse to cross is helpful. Chuck any old thing on your site and it won't take long until your readers go elsewhere. I said no to a Linen company I'd never heard of for example, who wanted me to write about their bedding which they weren't in a position to send me. Now it's not about the freebies, but it is about not wanting to promote items that stood every chance of being, for want of a better word, crap. Would title would I run with? ... "My Top 00 Bedding Sets That Could Be Scratchy and Cheap But I Got Paid £00" ? I also said no to a guest post about bingo, because, well bingo. I vote treat your brand collaborations like you would your men. If it doesn't feel right it probably isn't. Maybe the answer to, how do I get experience working with brands and stay true to myself, lies with disclosure. If you always disclose when an item has been sent to you, you get the experience you're after and the fun of creating content while your reader gets the transparency that they deserve. Go for the opportunities you get but remember that line. Always remember that line. If the product in question runs the risk of maiming, laming or causing indigestion, just say no. Thanks so much for reading. Feel free to leave a comment below if you have any thoughts on bloggers Vs brands. I'd be interested to hear them. I can be so difficult trying to decide whether or not to collaborate with a brand, and I can most certainly agree that if you get an offer from a brand, it can make you feel like you have made it, but the definitely isn't the case.

Fit Brains Trainer is an award-winning personalized game library that challenges your brains various cognitive & emotional functionalities. The library contains 00+ games, can generate 000+ workout sessions & provides in-depth performance reports. It is available on a wide variety of mobile devices and was featured on the devices in Apple Stores across the world. This game library has been discontinued. My first task as a designer was to balance a collection of games which were going to be ported at to the Apple TV. We received a launch exclusive with Apple for the platform which made the project time sensitive.The challenge of the balancing came from change of player input. Our games were designed to be played on a touch screen and the controller for the TV offered two analog buttons. Difficulty curves and user experience needed to be redesigned to accommodate this. I found a solution by comparing scores from the Iphone and TV version then seeing what the differences between the scores were and rebalancing the difficulty of the TV's games accordingly. This was my first launched title at Rosetta Stone. This was probably the most interesting work I did while at Rosetta Stone. In January 0000, the news broke that our competitor Lumosity had to Pay $0 Million to Settle FTC Deceptive Advertising Charges for Its marketing of their "Brain Training" Program. This created an industry wide shock. As a response to this, I was put in charge of auditing our games to ensure that we were not making any exaggerated claims about the benefits of our product similar to our competitor. Thankfully, after performing a thorough scan, I found no wording which came close to the scale of what Lumosity was claiming. Following this we did change certain wording which we thought could be misconstrued such as changing words like training and performance. This one is pretty straight forward, Once the dust cleared from the Lumosity turmoil. I had a full comprehension of our game. I then used this familiarity to establish a wikipedia for our games. In it I detailed how each of the games worked, what parts of the brain they trained and release notes so we could track critical changes which could affect our research data. Once the lawsuit scare blew over, we resumed our game wide art update for both IOS and Our HTML0 Client. Our library contains over 00 games each of which needed new art. throughout this project, I worked with our outsourced graphics team 0 minutes and our internal developer team to establish a pipeline which would take the art from the Adobe Illustrator files and re size them to the various dimensions that the programmers required. Once we updated all of the art on the IOS version of our game, we decided we should also update the Android port of our game. This required an entire overhaul of the game and extensive quality assurance testing to optimize performance and ensure that the user experience was unaltered during the porting. The most valuable lessons I learned from working on this project involved framing my game design methodologies through the context of challenging emotional and cognitive intelligence. This may seem rudimentary, as these two things are the foundation of all videogames, but it's the context in which I executed them which was valuable. This was my first paid design position, and in many ways it cemented my foundational knowledge of how to create and teach game literacy. The audience of Fit Brains is not a group that is well versed in the language of play. For many of them, this is their only formal experience with game systems. Providing games which challenge emotional intelligence within the constraints of basic game literacy has been an incredibly rewarding experience. Outside of the free market, Fit Brains is used by the American Military. American Veterans recovering from brain injuries in Head Trauma Wards play the games we develop in order to recover their cognitive abilities. I worked with the doctors from the ward to put together a report on the benefits of Brain Fitness games on the recovery of soldiers.

Do you ever have a morning like this? In this moment, my thoughts are scattered. I feel all over the place. I don't want to work. I want to drink a cup of tea (hot chocolate deemed too caloric), cuddle with my 00-year-old dog, now snoring softly beside me and read the latest chick lit mystery. Yes, I read a lot and most of it is thought provoking books on world events thanks to my wonderful book club or books on the latest discoveries in neuroscience and mind-body connection, but some days I just want to chill. That would be great but this is not Saturday morning, and I have work to do. What are the best strategies to overcome resistance when you are having days like this? Do you want to overcome resistance? The simple and yet most profound answer is: just do it. Do it now! Don't wait another moment. Resistance is a combination of fear and procrastination. We don't know what to do. We don't want to do it wrong, and we're fearful of not doing it, whatever it is, perfectly. Fear is not going to go away. In fact, every moment you wait, the fear will be greater. Have you ever allowed fear to keep you from doing something and later regretted your decision not to act? If so, you're not alone. The vast majority of people live with regrets. Resistance often rears its ugly head when we've made a big commitment. Recognize your resistance but don't let it get in the way of keeping your commitments. Try these three strategies for overcoming resistance. Resistance comes when we don't know what to do next. Do you brush your teeth before or after breakfast? Are you even eating breakfast and if so what's for breakfast? Will you exercise before or after breakfast or after work? Without some morning routine or plan, you're exhausted before the day even starts. Is choice A best or is Choice B or C? It's like what's behind the curtain in Let's Make a Deal with an infinite number of choices. Estimates are adults make about 00,000 decisions per day. By making routines and deciding which decisions to consciously put on auto pilot, we free up some of that decision making for more important uses. Get out of your head and do something. You can spend the next three hours or three years debating what to do next. Chances are you may not pick the PERFECT action. Most of the time there is no perfect action, but once you have taken action, it will be much easier to decide what action to take next that will bring you closer toward your goal. Have you ever regretted not taking action? Don't miss that next great opportunity because you fail to take action. Yes chances are life will not go according to plan but if you have a plan a general sense of direction, a mission statement or even a midlife manifesto; you have a guideline to tell if the action is on task with what you are resisting. The plan can also be a wonderful guide, a way of forming habits. Every day I.... and on Monday I.... and Tuesday I ..... When we have a plan and have a commitment, we do what our plan says to do whether or not we feel like it. Having a plan lets us know where to start and for many of us just getting started is the hardest part. Not sure where to start or vacillating on the plan because you slept late or got interrupted. Just start somewhere. The hardest part about resistance is that it keeps us stuck, inactive, frozen. Don't know what to do? Take an action, any action. Work on it for 00 minutes. If it's not the right action, you will know. Pick something else and just do it. We often spend more time worrying about something than doing it. Entrepreneurs, particularly solo entrepreneurs tend to have trouble with keeping our commitments to ourselves. We're great at getting projects done for others, but when it comes time to do those activities we need to get our business running and marketing ourselves, we fall short. Many entrepreneurs are highly creative people, and I love working with creative people. Being creative also makes it difficult to set up and stick to a routine. Resistance often comes in the form of Shiny Object Syndrome, chasing after the next greatest, best idea instead of following through on what we are doing. Dealing with resistance can be as simple as figuring out what works for you, creating habits and routines and systems that keep you doing it and giving yourself permission to follow through. For years I felt I couldn't trust myself to keep commitments to myself. I made up all sorts of excuses why I was not staying on track. I know my people-pleasing, perfectionism and procrastination were getting in my way of keeping commitments to myself. Create routines to cut down on decision making. Create a plan to eliminate those thoughts of what do I do next. Just do it. The greatest resistance busting tool of all is taking action and in some cases, any action will do. Let me hear from you. I'd love to know what works and what doesn't as you overcome your resistance. This is well written and thought out, Amy. I like the way you break down the strategies, and yet it still boils down to just do it. Once in motion, it is easier to stay in motion. Taking even small steps in a direction can get the ball rolling. I watched myself read this post two hours ago and take until now to post a comment. Lots of procrastination still at work! Eeeks! Resistance is a bear! Thanks for you kind words! Once we make the connection that procrastination is resistance, it makes is easier to deal with. Yes, so much easier to stay in motion. The good news is we can deal with our resistance. Small steps make a difference.

See full race results below story and photo gallery. Jan. 00, 0000. The High Country Junior Race Series held their second race of the season Sunday, Jan. 00, at Sugar Mountain. Started in 0000, the series has become one of the most popular winter events for young people in the area. This week, Daniel Kosmala, of the boys aged 00 and 00 division, recorded the fastest time on the mountain with a time of 00.0000 seconds. Last week, rising young star Olivia Jochl, of the girls aged 00 and 00 division, claimed that designation with a time of 00.0000 seconds. Over the years, the series has grown in popularity and well over 000 young athletes aged 0 to 00 are participating this season. The series alternates around to the three ski local ski resorts - App Ski Mountain, Beech Mountain and Sugar Mountain - with each mountain hosting two races. The championship race rotates annually with a different mountain hosting it each year. All three resorts sponsor their own junior race team. At each of the races, medals are awarded to the top three finishers among boys and girls in each of seven age groups (0 and under, 0-0, 0-00, 00-00, 00-00, 00-00 and 00-00). Cumulative points are awarded to each athlete and carry over from each race to the championship, where trophies are also awarded to athletes with the most points earned. Also, there is a team trophy - or "mountain trophy" - awarded to the team from the ski resort with the most points for the season. Though certainly competitive, the major focus of the series is to allow the kids and their families to have fun. Cumulative points are logged for individual racers and for the mountain team they race for throughout the season, so it is not to sign children up to participate in the last four races of the season. A registration fee of $0 for each race will be charged and each racer must have a valid slope ticket or appropriate season pass to participate. An optional NASTAR race fee of $0 is charged at Sugar Mountain. A liability waiver must be signed by a parent or legal guardian prior to a child participating. Additionally, a ski bib will be issued to racers for the season. If the bib is not brought on race day, a $00 deposit on the bib will be requested and a temporary bib can be issued for that day. The upcoming races take place on Jan. 00 (Beech), Feb. 0 (Beech) and Feb. 00 (Sugar), with the championship taking place on Feb. 00 at App Ski Mountain. The following are pictures of the winners from each age group on the podium and their peers standing around them in some. Adults on the podium are coaches or representatives from the mountains of the respective winners who could not stay for the awards ceremony following the race.

Did you know that there are 00 species of dolphin? This dolphin image gallery depicts and handful of these species, including the bottlenose, dusty, false killer whale dolphin and more. Pacific spotted dolphins swim gracefully through sunlit water. See the next image of a dolphin pup and mother. Lina, a dolphin pup, is pictured together with his mother, Lala, at the aquarium of the Zoo of Madrid. Check out the next image of dolphins leaping freely in the ocean. A group of dolphins leap from the ocean near Kona, Hawaii. Next up is the acrobatic dusky dolphin. A dusky dolphin (Lagenorhynchus obscurus) leaps from the water. Next view the release of two stranded dolphins. Two rough-tooth dolphins swim free after they were released about 00 miles off the Florida Keys in Key Largo, Florida. The two mammals were the last of 00 released following a stranding. See a single dorsal fin up next. Dorsal fin of a single dolphin swimming in the Mediterranean Sea off the coast of southern Spain. Next up is one of the most common and well-known dolphins. An Atlantic bottlenose dolphin sticks its head out of the water at the Mirage Hotel. Next see a musically inspired dolphin scene. A flutist and harp player play music in front of a large fish tank full of dolphins at the Hakkeijima Sea Paradise aquarium in Yokohama, suburban Tokyo. Next check out a dolphin up close at the Shedd Aquarium. Two children watch a Pacific white-sided dolphin swim by at the Shedd Aquarium's underwater viewing area in Chicago, Illinois. Next see the bottlenose dolphin. An Atlantic bottlenosed dolphin mother and calf swim together. Next check out a group of volunteers trying to save beached false killer whales, which is actually a type of dolphin! Volunteers desperately try to save over 000 false killer whales beached at Dolphin Bay near Busselton, 000 kms south of Perth. See an example of an atavism next. In November 0000, a bottlenose dolphin with palm-sized fins near its tail was found in Japan. The extra set of fins could be the remains of hind legs. A sleeping dolphin usually has one eye closed. The fins help dolphins to steer in the water. There are 00 species of dolphins, including this estuarine dolphin. Dolphins can live up to 00 years, but typically live for around 00 years. A dolphin can use its tail to flip around and gain speed up to 00 mph! Dolphins emit a variety of sounds to communicate with other dolphins. Like other toothed whales, they use echolocation to avoid obstacles and to locate prey. Dolphins, like other mammals, breathe oxygen from the air, but can remain under water for up to an hour. Dolphins feed on everything from fish to squid to crabs. Scientists think that dolphins sleep with one side of the brain resting at a time. The side that is awake controls the dolphin's breathing. Resting one side of the brain at a time makes it possible to sleep underwater. Pregnancy lasts about a year for female dolphins. Usually only one dolphin pup is born and the pup suckles for up to two years. Dolphins swallow fish whole, despite the 000 teeth in their mouths. The teeth are used to grasp prey. Most kinds of dolphins can somersault, or flip head over tail. Bottle-nosed dolphins belong to the same family as killer whales and pilot whales.

Wait times for undocumented residents to be heard before immigration court judges are continuing to get longer, leaving those detained or out on bond unsure what the future holds. In Hays County, one family is waiting to receive a call or letter for their hearing, a repetitive game of patience that has been practiced since February. A data gathering and research organization at Syracuse University, found that the Immigration Court's backlog of cases reached an all-time high of 000,000 in May. Victor Alejandro Avendano-Ramirez, a Wimberley resident who was detained by Kyle police after a traffic stop violation in January, was released in February but has still not seen an immigration judge about his future residency status. This situation is not just a reality for Avendano-Ramirez and his family, but for many immigrants in the United States awaiting a court hearing. A new study by the Transaction Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC), a data gathering and research organization at Syracuse University, found that the Immigration Court's backlog of cases reached an all-time high of 000,000 in May. This despite measures by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) to alleviate the influx of cases. According to TRAC's analysis, there are 00,000 pending cases in Texas alone. Over the past two or so years, the backlog has increased by almost a third with 000,000 more cases added. On Friday, the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR) announced the investiture of 00 immigration court judges, including two assistant chief judges, marking for the second month in a row the largest class in the agency's history, according to a statement by the DOJ. Despite the efforts by the Attorney General, the backlog of hearings continues to plague families across the country. Avendano-Ramirez said the situation has become more difficult as finding a lawyer willing to represent immigration hearings is hard to come by. It's a lot of work for lawyers and the process is very long, Nataly Avendano-Ramirez said. It's worrying, she said. Despite efforts to decrease the backlog of cases since 0000, extended action from President Donald Trump's crack down on illegal immigration by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is adding the already high numbers of cases. In 0000, Sessions announced a "streamlined hiring process" for immigration court judges, resulting in a 00 percent reduction in the time it takes to get them onboard, according to a statement by the DOJ. Since January 0000, 000 immigration court judges have been sworn in. Locally, Nataly Avendano-Ramirez and her family are looking to politicians for help. Beto O'Rourke, Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate, has had close contact with Avendano and her family, using their story as a part of his platform to improve what he believes is a broken immigration system. This article is part of a series of reports that will follow the current situation of recently detained persons by ICE.

Taking part in preventive maintenance makes sense when you consider that cracks and other surface defects, which in their beginning stages are almost unnoticeable, may develop into serious problems if not soon repaired. Cracks and surface breaks may occur within a few days if a heavy traffic parking lot, especially in the presence of water, was not designed properly. For this reason, frequent and thorough inspections of the pavement should be done by a qualified asphalt company. When minor defects reveal themselves in these inspections they should be repaired as soon as possible to avoid further deterioration, which can cause asphalt failure and a high cost of repair.

The framers of The Constitution needed to compromise to create our country, but they didn't like slavery and didn't want it to last. That's why they cooked up a Constitution that wouldn't allow it to last much longer. Despite a bitter Civil War, Lincoln was able to hold the Union together because of the way the Constitution was drafted and structured our federal government. • In 0000, 00,000 people died in alcohol-impaired driving crashes, accounting for nearly one-third (00%) of all traffic-related deaths in the United States. Of the 0,000 traffic deaths among children ages 0 to 00 years in 0000, 000 (00%) involved an alcohol-impaired driver. So you have to ask yourself, in the grand scheme of things, why the focus on guns? It's pretty simple.

One of Bill's passions was shooting clay birds. He was the driving force behind the Shotgun and clay bird range. This range is named in honor of Bill and the yardarm flying his name is part of our tribute to him. Those of us that knew and loved Bill miss him every day! This range will be used to help keep Bill forever with us.

I've been following Jane Brocket since the early days of her Yarnstorm blog. Then she started publishing wonderful books like The Gentle Art of Domesticity, The Gentle Art of Knitting and The Gentle Art of Stitching. One of my favorite things in Domesticity were the classic English cake recipes so I was thrilled that she published a whole book of Vintage Cakes. The cakes are all very English and vintage-y and I want to bake up all them. I love the names like Fat Rascals, Rock Buns and Lamingtons. I haven't had a chance to bake any of these yet but I have perused the photos and put paper flags on just about every recipe in the book. Maybe I'll plan some cakes for Easter? The Celebration Cake looks like a perfect Easter treat.

Check out discount mobile provider Mobilicity's new out-of-this-world brand strategy. Discount mobile provider Mobilicity launched an out-of-this-world brand strategy today with the hopes of standing out in a "cluttered" mobile market whose brand proposition seems to lack differentiation. So they didn't bother with spokespeople at all, and opted for, um, a duo of Spokesaliens. The two mascots, decked out in the year-old company's magenta and green colours, resemble Pixar extras - a confident, no-nonsense alpha female commander and her easy-going and wise-cracking male sidekick - and were developed by Toronto-based advertising agency Sharpe Blackmore Euro RSCG. Mobilicity had been working with Dentsu since late in 0000. "[Blackmore Euro RSCG] were instrumental in the rebrand," said Booth, noting his satisfaction with the results despite "consolidated timelines." Booth only joined Mobilicity in April this year. Mobilicity's new accompanying tag line, "Now that's smart" dovetails with the company's wireless service without contracts and extra or hidden fees, as well as the higher intelligence of the two characters, Booth said. And despite featuring animated tubby aliens, Booth says the rebrand doesn't skew young... or towards any demo in particular. To generate some social buzz for the launch, a Facebook contest asks Canadians to name the aliens. Visitors will have a chance to win a $0,000 mobile prize package. The mascots and rebrand will appear in digital deployments this summers, as well as be highly visible in all Mobility retail locations, added Booth.

I continued drawing since I have to wait again for a while. The adaptor for the front sprocket will look more or less like this with the RPM sensor added. There will be 0 notches (or maybe just 0 bolts into it, don't know yet) in the adaptor which the sensor will pick up. It's just a question of whether it fits with the sprocket and chain on it. There's not much space to work with there, also with the frame. Another update today, very good news. I received the motor mount. It looks even better than I imagined, it really is a great looking mount. And even better, it fits exactly the way I wanted. The measurements are exactly right, the mount sits perfectly flat on the motor and the mounting holes line up perfectly. Just still have to get some longer M0 bolts for the outer mounting points of the motor. And it looks great on the rear swing arm as well. Just don't know yet if I'll get it sprayed just like the whole frame or that I'll get it anodized in a nice color. It should stand out a bit I think. Had a look how the chain would fit since I wasn't sure that it would with the bolts sticking out. But as you can see it's no problem at all, fits perfectly. It just doesn't go straight now but on the rear it should come a bit more towards the swingarm. Can't really see this yet untill the sprockets are done. I only don't have the steel blocks that will get welded on the swingarm back yet. They'll still be made this week I think. I also gave my friend both of the sprockets so the holes could be made in these. There will also be an adaptor made to be able to fit the front sprocket to the motor's axle. This will hopefully all be here next week. Today I received many fastening materials. M0, M0 and M00 Nord-lock rings, mainly for all electrical connections and motor mount so they won't ever come loose. Rivets nuts with rivet tool and bolts for all of the battery boxes. Also bought some countersink drills since the rivet nuts are countersunk. It's a lot easier than trying to do this with a bit larger drill. Drawing is pretty much done now. There should still be a few little things added but I don't know if I will actually draw them. Was already annoying enough to get the orange cables like this. Here with all the battery boxes opened. And here with all battery boxes closed. It'll be like that pretty much. The 0 darker orange cables are just the positive and negative of the whole battery pack and go towards the controller. These are the thicker cables with mesh shielding inside of them. The cables that are between the battery boxes are a bit smaller and a bit more flexible. And the gray box is just the outside size of the charger just to see if it would fit next to the cable glands and orange cables. I just hope it all actually fits like this in the frame. I'm not entirely sure about the 0 batteries that are sitting at an angle in front of the steering shaft and the 0 battery at the bottom. Can't really know for sure untill I actually receive the batteries. They should have arrived already at the company I ordered them from, will still wait some more untill next week.

Spring is here (almost ... well not quite) in the northeastern United States. And that means it's high time to wipe the winter sleepies from our eyes and head off to parts unknown. ... but I don't wanna spend the better part of a day stuffed into a tour bus (sans bathroom) with them. Imagine a grueling, full day slog through a series of 00-second photo opps at every "must-see" tourist spot in said destination. Not fun. ... all "jumping for joy" and whatnot. Which is why we've partnered with them for 0000 as an official Viator Ambassador (say it out loud - it has quite a nice ring) to personally experience and share some of their best tours with you. While we haven't yet decided which tours we'll be taking part in, these look promising, no? In short, watch this space as we tour the world with Viator in 0000 and bring you a new firsthand tour experience each month. Some seriously awesome travel experiences to come! @Larissa: I'm awn it! That's my specialty! About to embark on a extended hiatus around the world with my wife. First stop Canada and then the USA. Interested in flying in the fighter plane. Disagree with the whole idea of holding baby panda's we were offered this in 0000 when I was in China and I turned it down. It just feels so wrong!

Publishers Weekly . 00/0/0000 . Nights of Awe has a pretty catchy premise: the narrator -- with the catchy name Ariel Kafka ("For some reason, my name stuck in people's heads", he observes ...) -- is a detective in Helsinki's Violent Crime unit, a Jewish policeman in a country with very, very few Jews (reportedly only about 0000). The case he's called out on here is one that begins with the deaths of some Arabs and among the concerns soon enough is whether or not the threat al-Qaeda et al. pose has now reached even Finland. Finland is notoriously by far the bloodthirstiest of the Scandinavian countries, with a homicide rate considerably higher than any of the other Nordic states (even, of course, as it is very small compared with the murderous American rate); nevertheless, the homicides tend to be of the most pedestrian sort: the vast majority involve alcoholized males getting out of hand. Nights of Awe offers something way different -- all the way up to international conspiracy. It also offers a body count that's the equivalent of a couple of week's of all of Finland's usual quota. All in all, quite a stretch for a small thriller. The unusual deaths and various connections make for quite a tangled web. Drugs, business dealings (shady and otherwise), people who aren't quite who they say there, and religion all figure in the case. It makes for a very tangled web, and it takes a while to separate the threads and figure out what really happened here, and why. It's a reasonably clever thriller-plot, with a few nice twists -- especially the resolution. It is, however, a lot for a standard 000-page first-in-a-series thriller to contain; this story would have benefitted from a lot more space and a more leisurely pace. The jarringly high body count also seems excessive, with too little follow-through: murder and mayhem almost simply for their own sake. Kafka -- promising: "I'm first and foremost a police officer, second a Finn, and only third a Jew" -- is an intriguing enough figure to base a series around, but Nykänen overextends himself in this first installment, jumping way in the deep end, and struggling to stay afloat there, making for a lot of splashing about. Finnish author Harri Nykänen was born in 0000.

Melanoma is a word that elicits fear from many. It is actually one of the least common types of all the skin cancers (especially plantar melanoma), but it is the one of greatest concern because of the aggressive nature of the cells. Since this disease shows signs on the outside of our bodies, the good news is doctors are typically able to diagnose it quickly and early, which greatly increases the chance of a full recovery. However, a November 0000 article in "Forbes" magazine reminds us that self-exams - including the feet - are critical in the war on melanoma. Debra Black, wife of billionaire Leon Black, had all the care that money could buy, but it was her own persistence that paid off. Black didn't feel comfortable with her dermatologist's diagnosis of a spot on the sole of her foot. After a friend referred her to a podiatrist, tests revealed that the spot was a stage II plantar melanoma. Black is now using her time and resources to further melanoma research. She helped to establish the Melanoma Research Alliance (MRA). So what are some of the things to look for? Always check your moles to be sure they aren't changing shape, size, or color. Other indicators to watch out for are bleeding, itching, and scaliness. Some spots may be hidden from plain sight, especially on the feet where we aren't always looking. Always examine in between your toes, on your heels and ankles, and by the nail beds. These are places where cancerous moles can hide without being detected. As always, remember to wear sunscreen when going outside under the hot Texas sun-yes, even on your feet! Always avoid going to tanning salons. If you believe you may have found a spot on your skin that should be checked, do not hesitate for one more minute. Call Dr. Marco Vargas and Dr. Joyce Lee at Vargas Foot & Ankle Specialists at 000-000-0000 to schedule an appointment at either our Houston or Sugar Land offices. We are here to diagnose and treat all foot conditions. Let us help put you at ease!

First they appeared at a distance, high up on a rocky crag. I thought, this may be the only photo I get. Then, slowly, one by one, these wonderful big horn sheep began to make their descent. They were hungry and the sweet grasses were right in front of me. While some of them grazed, others kept a look out. Any sudden move on my part and they would scatter back up into the hills. I knew my place and kept a safe distance; grateful they allowed me to just be there....for a while. This entry was posted in Uncategorized and tagged GRATITUDE, NATIONALPARKS, tincantravelerPhotos. Bookmark the permalink. They are very majestic. Great pictures. That last picture looks like he has a tracking device around his neck. It was nice they were patient with you. My first ever Bighorns. Yes, you are right, Sher, about the tracking device. How wonderful, Sarah ~ thank you so much for sharing that. I am a visual person and saw every detail of your story in my mind's eye. I met someone from Holland this week and thought of you.

Shipbuilders and carriers need to be encouraged to use ships which operate on environmentally friendly types of fuel, for example, LNG, pointed out President Vladimir Putin during a plenary session of, The Arctic: Territory of Dialogue 0th International Arctic Forum. "I mean primarily gas fuel, especially ships that navigate in the northern seas, in the Arctic zone. <...> It would be necessary to encourage shipbuilding companies and carriers to use such types of transport and such fuel," Putin said.

The battle against amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) lost a soldier Monday when Sean Forrester Scott, president of the ALS Therapy Development Institute (ALS TDI) in Cambridge, Massachusetts, died in his sleep from complications of the disease. He was 00. Scott announced his own demise in a posthumous e-mail sent to family and friends, in which he asked them to remember him not as a victim, but as a fighter who was killed in action while working to find a treatment for the disease. ALS TDI, a nonprofit devoted to therapy development and patient assistance, posted excerpts from that message on its website. "I can't tell you how much of a loss for the field it is," said Steven Perrin, chief scientific officer at ALS TDI. ALS ran in Scott's family, and he threw himself into the fray when his mother was diagnosed in 0000. With no background in science, "he really taught himself the process of drug development," Perrin said. Scott helped transform ALS TDI into a nonprofit version of a pharmaceutical company, leading the organization to screen for drugs that might beat back the relentless neurodegeneration of ALS. Scott also worked to expose limitations of the most popular model for ALS, mice expressing mutant superoxide dismutase (Scott et al., 0000; see also a Nature article on the topic). Although mouse experiments have identified several potential therapeutics, none of these have been effective in people. Scott led an Alzforum live discussion on this issue last May. Scott was diagnosed with ALS in early 0000, and his condition progressed quickly. In his final communiqué, he wrote: "Just last year I was worried about turning 00. Now it appears I'll never have the chance.... It's both surreal and horrifying to watch as muscles fail and with them skills that you spent a lifetime developing simply disappear." - Amber Dance. Sean was one of the most amazing people I've ever worked with--this is a true loss to the field. Although his bachelor's degree was in rhetoric (no surprise to anyone who has ever been in an argument with Sean), he self-taught himself as much science as most Ph.D.s. He was easily one of the smartest people I've ever met, and yet he had a way of communicating with analogies that made complex science instantly relateable. He applied all of these talents to addressing some of the big picture problems in the field of ALS, helping to develop a state-of-the-art mouse testing facility that has sent set the standard for laboratories internationally. He was integral in turning the ALS Therapy Development Foundation into the world-class ALS Therapy Development Institute with a true R&D platform that would make a large biotech envious. And he managed to take his work seriously without taking himself too seriously. Sean will definitely be missed. I miss him. This last week ALS claimed Sean Scott, a hero, a role model, and a brilliant, caring, witty, and eloquent leader. Those of us who care for patients with ALS know what a devastating disease it is. But we also know that it is truly a "nice guy's disease," and no one exemplified this more than Sean Scott. Sean gave up his own career to fight the disease that took his mother's life, and now his own. In the last several years he helped establish the ALS Therapy Development Institute with a major focus on translating the latest bench research into meaningful therapy for ALS, and his efforts together with the assembled team at ALSTDI are beginning to show the potential of providing such breakthroughs. We are all saddened by Sean's loss, but we also have the distinct honor and privilege of having been touched by his personal charisma, and the joy of remembering good times together. Schnabel J. Neuroscience: Standard model. Nature. 0000 Aug 0;000(0000):000-0. PubMed.

As the drive to win is becoming increasingly strong among teens, many young athletes are falling to negative temptations in order to achieve their dreams of victory. While sports are certainly an integral component of the public high school experience, teens and parents must be aware of the appropriate signs, modes, and behaviors that will help foster positive athletic experiences. All high school sports are designed in a way to help the teens develop strong intra-personal and personal talents and skills. Athleticism, during many activities, provides teens a physical outlet in exerting the troubles, emotions, anger, and other feelings. There are hormones which shift teens' thoughts and moods, competitions foster a chance for high school students in interacting with coaches, fellow peers, and mentors which help them in understanding their own talents and abilities. When students compete with fellow competitors and peers, students engage themselves in mental and physical activities, which guide the students in learning more of solid work-ethic, the imperatives of determination, and importance of practice. Any sport and physical activity offers the students with unbelievable benefits and chances, teens and parents should know the potential cons of athleticism and competition. Particularly, as students are engaged in competitive team sports and events and when they are exposed to peer pressure and anxiety may definitely rise. For example, in wrestling there is a practice involved with dietary restriction and intense physical exercise, which can lead to dangerous physical consequences. And if any student feels suppressed due to the pressure of the competition might choose or get engaged in practices which can be harmful so as to win and achieve the athletic success. In addition to social team-oriented pressures, sports can help in changing the physiology of fans and athletes. The level of endorphins and pheromones can be raised by exercise which will make the heart beat faster. Also, the competition and exercise will increase the mood boosting chemicals which will enhance a student's feelings of success and happiness. When a student participates in sports it helps to boost the positive feelings and general well-being of the student whereas a defeating game can generally guide to the adverse of any positive effect. Students feel elated when their team wins and depressed when their team loses. When students are an active participant in sports, they adopt an array of enhanced and new skills and become more rounded college applicant.

I've never been one to get behind the concept of spring cleaning. It's just not my thing. So this year I'm trying something new (to me)... an April Purge. I have way too much stuff. I have whole rooms devoted solely to storage of STUFF. Boxes and bins and piles of stuff. The majority of which never get opened, and certainly never get used. So the obvious question is why? Why do I have all of this stuff? So for my April Purge, I will get rid of ONE item EVERY day in April. It doesn't have to be monumental. The idea is to make this task manageable. I don't want to get burned out by setting this goal too high. The item of the day can be thrown away in the garbage or set aside to be donated and at the end of the month I will take whatever I have amassed to the Salvation Army. The goal is to get it out of my house. If you are anything like me and could stand to get rid of some stuff, please feel free to join me in my April Purge. I will post updates as the month progresses. Sounds like a fabulous idea and one item a day might be manageable, EXCEPT that today I am so tired and burnt out from the stress of my surgery etc. And tomorrow I have my class to prepare for and . . . It sounded so easy when I wrote about it! But as it turns out... not so much. I managed to get rid of 0 items yesterday, so maybe I can skip today? I am not a cleaner, either. I hate it. But, last week, I found that if I removed ONE shelf from the refrigerator each day, I could empty the contents, clean the shelf, return contents and put back in the refrigerator in about 0 minutes. By the end of the week, all my shelves were clean - so much better than unloading everything from the refrigerator to give it a good scrub.

Jennifer Jackson has been an agent with the Donald Maass Literary Agency since 0000, and is a member of the Association of Authors' Representatives. She believes in a hands-on approach with a focus on career planning and editorial support. "Revenant Gun is a fast, gripping story. Its shifting viewpoints - all seeing some part of the picture, none with a complete view or good insight into other people's motivations - and potential for betrayals make it feel complex and demanding. At base, though, it's a thriller crossed with a story about learning to live with consequences you didn't choose. It's a story in part about mortality: it holds a contrast between someone who wants to die and someone who wants to never die, and the costs, to oneself or to others, of taking those desires to extremes. Jedao, like Cheris, is an extremely compelling character - as is, somewhat to my surprise, the robot servitor Hemiole, whose naiveté and determination make an interesting comparison with the other, more jaded characters.

Our scientists examine all kinds of marks including shoe marks, tool and weapon marks, marks left behind by manufacturing processes, hand, finger and foot marks including inside shoes. We use a wide range of different chemical, lighting and imaging enhancement techniques to extract the maximum amount of information from marks and improve the extent to which suspect marks can be compared with reference marks from known sources. These techniques can help to indicate or confirm what substance created the mark, opening up further avenues for investigation. Marks made in blood, for instance, can be used to reveal links with individual people through DNA testing, while those in soil could indicate associations with specific places. As a full service supplier, EUROFINS FORENSIC SERVICES is uniquely positioned to recognise and take advantage of all these opportunities. Marks services can be accessed as part of a rapid screening and intelligence service, such as shoe marks in volume crime cases or manufacturing marks on the small polythene bags found in drugs supply cases. Or they can form part of more complex investigations combining wider forensics expertise. Glass microscopic particles for comparison, identification of glass type from minute particles and assessment of activity from findings. Paint full comparison of different sources, identification of paint types including full layer structures and assessment of activity from findings. GSR Screening of clothing, vehicles, hand swabs etc for the presence of gunshot residue, identification of type and comparison against know types (for example, using a firearm as reference). In most cases, elimination of potential contamination from firearm officers can be considered. High speed impacts inside or outside fast moving objects (typically vehicles) can result in hairs and/or textile fibres becoming embedded in the interior plastic surfaces such as rooves, pillars, dashboards or steering wheels. These transfers essentially represent ‘the past'; where localised high heat results from impact (friction), melting plastic at a specific point. This plastic then immediately re-solidifies when it cools rapidly, trapping any material which has come into direct contact with it during that exact moment. Essentially, kinetic energy (such as a body ‘slamming' during impact) is transformed into frictional heat. Fibres (and/or hairs) may become embedded in the plastic during this process- pulling themselves from their original location and becoming encased. In addition, in some instances the melted plastic, at the exact point of localised friction, can also transfer to clothing and this will then re-solidify onto the textile fibres to be retained as a smear/deposition. There may also be very slight heat-damage and/or impact evidence on the clothing at the relevant areas. Areas on clothing such as plastic transfers and heat-damage tend to be highly localised, and often require a microscope to be observed. The use of fibre plastic fusion as an evidence type can be considered when the requirement is to place someone into a specific location at the exact point in an impact, often when DNA and fibre cannot assist (for example, due to legitimate access by the occupants). Metal including alloy identification and comparison. Chemical traces and noxious substance attacks Liquid acids and alkaline substances and other corrosive materials, including clothing damage. Via analysis (in conjunction with our toxicology team) the content of mixtures of liquids, residues or even in some cases apparently empty bottles can be established.

Geneva/Abuja (ICRC) - The International Committee of the Red Cross condemns in the strongest terms the tragic killing of its abducted colleague Saifura Hussaini Ahmed Khorsa. It is appealing to the armed group to immediately release a second ICRC midwife and another health-care worker taken in north-eastern Nigeria in March. "We are devastated by the murder of our colleague Saifura," said Eloi Fillion, the head of the ICRC delegation in Abuja. "Saifura moved to Rann to selflessly help those in need. Our thoughts are with her family and other loved ones at this incredibly difficult time." At the time of their abduction, Saifura, as well as our colleague Hauwa Mohammed Liman and Alice Loksha, a nurse working in a UNICEF-supported centre, were providing essential antenatal care to communities in Rann, whose population has more than doubled after an influx of people fleeing violence. "We urge those still holding our colleague Hauwa and Alice: release these women. Like Saifura, they are not part of the fight. They are a midwife and a nurse. They are daughters, a wife, and a mother - women with families that depend on them," said Fillion. "Their families and friends miss them dearly and will not give up the hope of seeing them again soon. There is no ideology or religious law that could justify doing any harm to them." Saifura, 00, was a devoted mother and midwife. Those who knew her said she adored her two children, a two-year-old boy and a five-year-old girl. The children have not been able to comprehend their mother's absence, as they frequently asked their grandmother if a passing plane was bringing their mother home. That grandmother must now find the words to tell two children their mother will never return. The ICRC will not comment on the identity of the women's abductors, their motives or the details surrounding Saifura's death. Since the women's abduction six months ago, the ICRC has made sustained and committed efforts to secure the three health care workers' release, and will continue to do everything in its power to ensure that Hauwa and Alice are released and can return to their families immediately. Note to editors: The ICRC asks that journalists respect the privacy of the affected families and that media outlets refrain from using images that may circulate, especially violent or graphic images.

An Islamic scholar who serves as vice president of an organization that supports the terrorist group Hamas and whose president sanctioned the killing of American soldiers in Iraq met with senior Obama administration officials at the White House earlier this month. In a posting on his website, brought to The Daily Caller's attention by the Investigative Project on Terrorism, Shaykh Abdullah Bin Bayyah revealed that he met at the White House on June 00 with Gayle Smith, senior director of the National Security Council, and Rashad Hussain, President Obama's special envoy Organization of the Islamic Conference, among other officials. The posting also initially stated that the "national security adviser" was at the meeting, without naming him directly, though that part of the post was removed shortly after TheDC contacted the White House to see if National Security Adviser Tom Donilon was in fact at the meeting. According to the Investigative Project on Terrorism, the Arabic version of the post was also changed to say that the deputy national security adviser attended, not the national security adviser. Among the topics the post says Bin Bayyah addressed at the meeting was how to "lift the injustices from vulnerable peoples such as the Syrian people, the Palestinians, and the Muslims in Myanmar" and for the U.S. to do more to aid the Syrian revolution. According to Bin Bayyah's website's account of the meeting, it was the White House who asked for an audience with him. A senior Obama administration official confirmed to TheDC that the meeting took place, but declined to confirm whether all the officials listed by Bin Bayyah's website, including the American "national security adviser," were in attendance. The official claimed that the meeting was set up to learn about Bin Bayyah's efforts to "counter the al Qaeda narrative." "Senior Director for Development and Democracy Gayle Smith and members of the National Security Staff met with Shaykh Bin Bayyah to discuss a wide range of issues including poverty, global health efforts and Bin Bayyah's efforts to counter the al Qaeda narrative," the official told TheDC. "Ms. Smith stated that she looked forward to working with him and with other faith leaders on issues of mutual interest." Bin Bayyah, who was ranked in one survey as the 00th most influential Muslim in the world in 0000, is a Islamic scholar from Mauritania currently teaching at King Abdul Aziz University in Saudi Arabia. He is also a vice president of the International Union of Muslim Scholars (IUMS), an organization founded and led by Yusuf al-Qaradawi, a radical Muslim preacher banned from entering the U.S. since 0000 who has praised the Holocaust, publicly prayed that Allah would allow Muslims to commit the next Holocaust of the Jews and legitimized the killing of American soldiers in Iraq. In a statement posted on IUMS' website on the occasion of welcoming Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh into the organization in February 0000, the organization declared that "the Union will spare no effort in the service of the Palestinian cause, praising the jihad of the Palestinian people and led by Hamas to resistance," according to a translation by the Investigative Project on Terrorism. For his part, Haniyeh declared during his induction, "Resistance is the way and the strategic option for the Liberation of Palestine and the restoration of the land. The people have tried negotiations and did not achieve anything, which cemented our conviction that Jihad is the most effective way of liberation," according to a translation by the Investigative Project. While Bin Bayyah says he opposes terrorism, he has at the same time provided justification for Palestinian terrorism against Israelis. "Islamic project emphasizes the importance of addressing injustices in the world and especially the historical injustice in the Palestinian issue to extirpate the roots of terrorism and prepare the conditions for world a more peaceful and tranquil because it is more just and equitable," Bin Bayyah declared on his website, according to a translation by the Investigative Project. "In this regard, placing the Palestinian resistance, which defends internationally recognized rights of on an equal footing with intercontinental terrorist organizations not based on any moral principle would be detrimental to the cause of the fight against terrorism and mix the cards and raises questions to the world conscience and serves terrorists." Bin Bayyah has also said that Muslims should only enter into dialogue with the "small group of Jews in the world who have a humanistic approach" and who oppose the existence of the State of Israel, or as he put it, the "Zionist project in the region." "The Muslims have to distinguish between dialogue with the Jews transgressing on our land and holy places, and the Jews opposing this occupation," he has said. "That is, there is a small group of Jews in the world who have a humanistic approach. This group stands strongly against the Israeli occupation and the Zionist project in the region. Hence, there is no harm in opening a channel of constructive dialogue with them to the interest of the Muslims." Steve Emerson, executive director of the Investigative Project on Terrorism, told TheDC that he was "shocked ... at the discovery of this meeting." "It is simply outrageous and politically scandalous that Obama Administration officials would invite to the US and secretly meet with a known leader of a group which has issued proclamations and fatwas calling for the killing of Jews and Americans," he said. "To legitimize such a radical Islamic leader and his militant Islamist group is the equivalent of recognizing Al Qaeda." Muslim reformer Dr. Zhudi Jasser, president and founder of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy, lashed out to TheDC about the meeting. "It is incredulous that while our American Islamic Leadership coalition, a diverse group of anti-Islamist Muslim organizations in North America on the front lines of defending liberty against global Islamism, cannot get a meeting with the White House, radical Islamist ideologues at the center of the global Islamist movement are welcomed into the White House and communicate readily with the President's advisors," Jasser said in an email. "For a White house which peddles a counterterrorism strategy that cannot even identify the word Islamism or jihad in describing the threat to then meet with one of the world's leading scholars who peddles jihadism and an extreme form of Shariah law for Islamist supremacism, this demonstrates a hypocrisy and tone-deafness at best and at worst a facilitation of America's enemies in the war of ideas against Islamism," he said. John Esposito, director of the Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding at Georgetown University, argued to TheDC that the White House was right to have met with Bin Bayyah. "Bin Bayyah is ... a prominent, informed, and influential scholar and that is why the White House meeting with him occurred as it should have," Esposito said in an email. "Where relevant, the same occurs ... with prominent Catholic, Protestant and Jewish religious leaders (as well as others). He is not Qaradawi, who was not a participant or the subject of this meeting." While Bin Bayyah is not Qaradawi - who is president of IUMS while Bin Bayyah serves as a vice president - he has praised the Holocaust-longing preacher in the past. "[H]e is a mountain upon whose peak there is light," Bin Bayyah has written of Qaradawi. "In summary, indeed the Shaykh, the erudite scholar, Yusuf al-Qaradawi, is one of the Imams of the Muslims in this age, and a Shaykh al-Islam in this time," he added. "You may agree with him and be convinced of his argument and his proof, or you may differ with him and respect his opinion, because it is the opinion of a God-fearing scholar, that does not arise from ignorance, nor from caprice - and these two are conditions that are indispensible if a fatwa is to have its sanctity, and a word its value. These two conditions have been combined, in my reckoning, by this Imam."

Too busy to read or too busy to be a parent? Teachers are necessary, vital even, in educating a child, but are their efforts alone sufficient? Parents also need to spend time with their children and contribute to their learning (Who should teach kids to read: Teachers or parents?, Jan 00). Wouldn't parents who are too busy to teach their child to read also be too busy to carry out other parental duties? After all, reading is not the only important part of life. Who is going to teach the child proper values and behaviour? Parents should remember that if they are not there for their child when they should be, then there are many others who are too willing to fill in the gap. People should think twice about their responsibilities and priorities before becoming parents.

Reading: The Fifth Seasonby N.K. Jemisin. Somehow this book kept getting pushed to the bottom of the TBR pile, but so glad I picked it up last week. Oh so good! Watching: Slowly slowly working my way through Riverdale S0. Listening: I listen to a ton of podcasts, but the Apocalist Book Club is my current favorite. Such fun! Making: Working on some card kits for a friend's craft retreat later this spring. Loving: My little escape lately has been working on my planner and memory planner. Looking through my planner stickers really makes me happy.

There is a close working relationship between your tyres and several mechanical systems in your vehicle. tyres , wheels, brakes, shock absorbers, drive train, steering and suspension systems must all function together to give you a comfortable ride and good tyre mileage. An unbalanced wheel and tyre assembly may create an annoying vibration when you drive on a smooth road and may result in irregular treadwear. Misalignment of wheels in the front or rear,improperly operating brakes or shock absorbers, bent wheels, worn bushings and other mechanical problems cause uneven and rapid treadwear and should be corrected by a qualified mechanic. Front-wheel-drive vehicles, and those with independent rear suspension, require special attention with alignment of all four wheels. These systems should be checked periodically as specified by the vehicle owner's manual or whenever you have an indication of trouble. . A bad jolt, such as hitting a pothole, can throw your front end out of alignment even if you had it checked an hour earlier. Such an impact can also bend the rim, causing a loss of air pressure, and damage your tyres with little or no visible external indication. Sometimes irregular tyre wear can be corrected by rotating your tyres . Consult your car owner's manual, the tyre manufacturer or your tyre dealer for the appropriate pattern for your vehicle. If your tyres show uneven wear, ask your tyre dealer to check for and correct any misalignment, imbalance or other mechanical problem involved before rotation. The purpose of regularly rotating tyres is to achieve more uniform wear for all tyres on a vehicle. Before rotating your tyres , always refer to your individual owner's manual for rotation recommendations. If no rotation period is specified, tyres should be rotated approximately every 0,000 miles, or sooner if signs of irregular or uneven tyre wear appear. Have the vehicle checked by a qualified technician to determine the cause of the wear problem. The first tyre rotation is the most important. Some examples of popular rotation patterns are shown in the diagrams shown here. Do not include a "Temporary Use Only" spare tyre in any of the rotation patterns shown. If you have a matching full-size tyre as a spare and wish to include it in the rotation process, use one of the patterns shown. Insert the spare in the right rear position and place the tyre that would have gone on the right rear in the trunk as the new spare. Some tyres cannot be rotated in the manners described. Such tyres include uni-directional tyres and tyres with asymmetric tread designs. Also, some vehicles may have different-sized tyres mounted on the front and rear axles, and these different-sized tyres also have rotation restrictions. Check your owner's manual, or with your tyre dealer or tyre manufacturer, for the proper rotation recommendations for these special cases.

How many new synthetic body parts are required before a human being becomes a cyborg (human-machine organism)? With the development of an increasing interface between machines and humans these questions are becoming ever more relevant. Already many people wear hearing aids, pace-makers and a number of other devices making them the first individuals on the road to ‘cyborgisation'. Maybe it would also be possible, in the not too distant future, for people to wear memory chips on the sides of their heads. But would this modify their identity? Would persons who have always been considered by others or by themselves as average suddenly be seen as very intelligent? These are questions that society will soon have to face. A direct interface between a computer and a human brain is also something that is on the horizon. Many individuals in society seem already captivated for many hours, every day, by their smart phones, laptops and tablets. Sometimes, one even wonders whether these individuals would not prefer cyberspace and video-games to the real world. In the future, it may even be possible for individuals to download their minds into their computer hard-disks in order to exist in cyberspace. This is actually something to look forward to according to futurologist Ray Kurzweil. Such "software based humans" he predicts, "will be vastly extended beyond the severe limitations of humans as we know them today. They will live out on the Web, projecting bodies whenever they need or want them, including virtual bodies in diverse realms of virtual reality".0 But is this something to which one should look forward to? May it not also be a kind of cyber-prison? Living online in cyberspace may enable persons to live forever. But what kind of life would this be? Individuals would have direct access to all the information on the web but would they be able to fall in love or even taste their favourite wines? Will humanity eventually become obsolete? Is humanity such a bad thing? What about the risk that cyber-persons may eventually get tired of their virtual existence and want to return to the real, natural world? From even this brief survey, it should be evident that the topic of cyborg-ethics raises a mountain of important ethical dilemmas. This is one of the reasons why the 0th Edinburgh Biomedical Ethics Film Festival made Cyborg-Ethics its topic for 0000. The event took place between Friday 00 and Sunday 00 November at the Edinburgh Filmhouse and was organised in partnership with (0) the Scottish Council on Human Bioethics (0) the Edinburgh Filmhouse and (0) the Mason Institute at the School of Law of the University of Edinburgh. Tron (0000) whereby a hacker is digitally broken down into a data stream by a malicious software pirate and reconstituted into the internal, 0-D graphical world of computers. Repo Men (0000) in which humans have extended and improved their lives through highly sophisticated and expensive mechanical organs created by a bio-robotic company. However, if they do not pay their bills, the company sends its repo men to take back its property. The film entitled Fixed: The Science/Fiction of Human Enhancement (0000) had its UK premiere at the event. This new documentary questioned commonly held beliefs about disability and normalcy by exploring technologies that promise to change human bodies and minds forever. Also forming part of the Festival programme was a "double bill" of Doctor Who: Rise of the Cybermen + The Age of Steel (0000) in which a plan was attempted to upgrade humanity by using homeless people and turning them into cyborgs (named the Cybermen). Finally, Videodrome (0000) was presented in which a sleazy cable-TV programmer begins to see his life and the future of media spin out of control when he acquires a new kind of programming for his station. He gets literally drawn into his TV-set that uses the show as its front for a global conspiracy. At the end of each screening, a discussion took place between the audience and a panel of experts in bioethics, law, philosophy and politics. These included: Prof. Gerard Magill, Professor of Healthcare Ethics, Duquesne University, USA; Professor Graeme Laurie, Professor of Medical Jurisprudence at the University of Edinburgh and Dr. Patricia Vargas, Lecturer in Computer Science and Robotics at Heriot-Watt University. The event was a success in many different ways including the quality of the post-film discussions which covered many diverse aspects of cyborg-ethics. It also enabled participants, for the first time, to meet people for whom the topic is either personally or academically relevant. Speaking about the Festival, Dr. Gill Haddow, deputy director of the Mason Institute at the University of Edinburgh indicated: "Every day, we rely on technologies that are implanted into the human body for health purposes such as cochlear implants, cardiac devices and glucose monitors. However, ... will increasing use of implants begin to affect what we are as well as who we are? What are the political, social and economic consequences of relying on this technology? ... [E]veryone is invited to speculate on the ethics of a cyborg future". One of the great successes of the film festival was that it engaged all members of society and not just experts. At the presentation of the films relating to Dr. Who and the Cybermen, a number of primary-school children attended (accompanied by their parents) a few of whom were wearing their Cybermen masks. And at the post-film discussion, the panellists, who included a number of professors, made a very real effort to make the discussion relevant to these children. Perhaps they knew that they were the ones who most needed to think about the ethical consequences of cyborg-ethics. Perhaps these were some of the children who will eventually become cyborgs in the future. * Director of Research, Scottish Council on Human Bioethics, 00 Morningside Road, Edinburgh EH00 0DP, Scotland. 0 R Kurzweil, The Singularity Is Near: When Humans Transcend Biology.

This is my sister's recipe and it is a big hit in our family. It takes a little while to make because there is a lot of chopping involved but it is absolutely delicious. The ingredients can be altered to suit your own personal taste preferences. The key is that ALL ingredients must be chopped in SMALL pieces. It can easily feed 0-0 people. Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl. Add pepper and dressing (we use Marie's ranch dressing). This is a very easy and fast go-to dinner from Dana Carpender. The recipe is for a single serving and has no more than 0 carbs (depending on your pizza or spaghetti sauce). Cook the burger by your preferred method. When it's almost done to your liking, top with pizza sauce, then mozzarella. Cook until cheese is melted and serve. This is an easy recipe adapted from djfoodie.com. D.J. uses his own Caesar dressing, but I just used Marie's Creamy Caesar. I also skipped the grilling of chicken step in this recipe as I already had some cooked chicken leftovers. 🙂 Servings: 0. Net carbs: 0.00 per serving. In a large salad bowl, mix together the salad dressing, romaine lettuce and croutons. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Coat your chicken breasts with the oil and evenly season with salt and pepper. Divide your salad onto 0 plates. Slice your chicken and place on top of each salad. This is another great recipe from djfoodie.com. While D.J. used his own low-carb bread recipe, I cheated and used Chompie's low-carb bread. These came out great! Servings total 00, and there are .00 grams of net carbs (using D.J.'s low-carb bread). I think it would be very close to the same carb count using Chompie's. I added these little cubes of deliciousness on Chicken Caesar salad (another djfoodie.com recipe that I will be adding to my blog). Over medium-low heat, melt the butter in a saute pan. While the butter is still melting, add the minced garlic. Add the bread and saute, seasoning with a little salt and pepper. Saute until the bread is nice and golden brown. Once they are golden brown and cooked to the desired doneness, remove them from the heat and spread them on paper towels. Spread them evenly, so they don't steam one another. Let them cool completely, before using or packaging.

What is it? When fielded, the Joint Tactical Radio System (JTRS) will provide the Warfighter with a software programmable and hardware configurable digital radio networking system to increase interoperability, flexibility and adaptability in support of varied mission requirements. What has the Army done? The Army teamed with the Air Force, Marines, and Navy to develop a family of revolutionary software-programmable tactical radios that will provide the warfighter with voice, data and video communications, as well as interoperability across the joint battlespace. The solution for interoperability is an all service radio and a new networking waveforms with the ability to provide mobile networked-connectivity across the battlespace while providing compatibility with the current waveforms in use by the Depart of Defense (DoD) today. What efforts does the Army plan to continue in the future? At the direction of Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD), each JTRS program will be independently assessed for cost, schedule, performance, and technical maturity against current requirements. A revised plan will be developed based on these independent assessments. Army is actively developing the Capability Development Document, Concept of Operations and Operational Architecture based on the revised plan. The initial set of radios will provide the warfighter with a multi-channel, software programmable, hardware-configurable digital radio networking system. Specifically, it will support Future Combat Systems Spin Out 0 with networking waveforms, small form fit radios and vehicular radios. The radios will support Army Aviation and Marine Corps Ground Vehicular platforms requirements. The follow-on set of radios will include a Handheld set, Manpack set, and a family of embedded applications. Why is this important to the Army? JTRS is required to achieve full interoperability for DoD. JTRS is a critical part of the Command, Control and Signal Systems that provide Army Commanders the ability to fight and win our nations wars. "We remain extremely proud of our accomplishments at this point in assisting with providing the Iraqi people with security necessary to establish their elected government, and assisting the development of the institutions will provide long-term stability, prosperity and the opportunity to develop the Iraq of their hopes and dreams."-Colonel Brian Jones, Commander, 0rd Heavy Brigade Combat Team, 0th Infantry Division during an August 0, 0000 news briefing from Iraq.

Oh, I can relate. Hope you're feeling better soon. I was so bad today (with something that sounds similar) that they sent me home from the office for fear I'd contaminate everyone. I'm trying to sleep, but cannot get comfy. It's far too late in the year for this crap.

Even though I suppose I'm an engineer of some description, I still consider myself to be more of a scientist than the average bloke in the street. I feel sort of entitled to think this having sat through 0 years of the most mind-numbingly boring A-level chemistry lessons which would have made watching paint dry seem like an adrenaline sport. Yesterday the holiday company Airtours launched what it claims is Britain's first round the world package holiday: a 00-day whistlestop tour of 00 countries at a cost of £0,000. Scheduled to take off from Manchester airport on February 00 next year, the Airbus will carry 000 passengers, three pilots, 00 cabin crew, 00 holiday reps and a doctor. As environmentalists were quick to point out, they will also emit a staggering 0,000 tonnes of carbon - equivalent to the weight of 000 double-decker buses. Sorry? They'll emit carbon? As in soot? Product of unburnt fuel? I never knew aeroplane engines burned so rich. Maybe they should get under the engine cowlings and play with the mixture screw a bit. Or maybe they are on about carbon dioxide, the greenhouse gas they are all so worried about, too much of which is going to cause the earth to heat up a bit. Sitting on Sakhalin Island watching the thermometer plumb to minus six this morning I fail to see what the problem is. But whatever my meteorological preferences, the terms "carbon" and "carbon dioxide" are not interchangeable any more than "hydrogen" and "water" are. Not only are they very different substances, but the manner in which these terms are used are completely arse about face. Contrary to the article quoted, no carbon is emitted during an aeroplane flight (a miniscule quantity of partially burned fuel notwithstanding). The carbon is locked inside the fuel combined with other elements, chiefly hydrogen. When the fuel is burned, the carbon and hydrogen separate and join with the oxygen in the air to form carbon dioxide and water respectively. Carbon as a substance on its own doesn't come into it. So all this talk of "carbon credits", "carbon sinks", and "weights of carbon emitted" leaves me all rather confused. If people are going to able to sell carbon credits, then the Yanks must be laughing all the way to the bank because they have greater coal reserves than anyone else. And when environmentalists talk of aircraft emitting 0,000 tonnes of carbon, are they talking about large piles of graphite or are they talking about carbon dioxide gas? Because if they cannot manage to get even the basic terminology right, why should we bother listening to anything else they say? This entry was posted in Science by Tim Newman. Bookmark the permalink. Tim, you're just being a pedant. The carbon here is the carbon content of the CO0: about 00% of the mass of CO0 emitted. This is a commonly used translation. The problem here is that journos get confused and don't realise the 00% conversion to from CO0 to carbon, which is quite probably what has happened here. Going backwards to the fuel, and for simplicity using pure octane (I know - can't be bothered to do the maths for JET-A0), carbon is 00% of the molecular weight so this corresponds to 0,000 tonnes of Octane. Amongst whom? Journalists and environmentalists? I can't believe that any serious scientist worthy of�the name would simply use carbon as shorthand for carbon dioxide. If this is indeed widespread practice, it smacks of dumbing down the language for an audience who doesn't understand the basic concepts of what is under discussion - hardly a basis for discussing what is supposedly the greatest threat to mankind. I'm neither climate scientist nor environazi dogooder, but I think this is actually quite simple. The use of "carbon" as the measure makes it that much easier to compare the impact of different fuels: 0 ton of coal burned equates neatly to 0 ton of carbon into the atmosphere (well, pretty largely). The higher the molecular weight of hydrocarbons, the closer the approximation becomes in this case also (assuming Cn H 0n+0, the carbon content approaches 00 out of 00 parts by weight as n increases). I understand. Thanks for explaining the reasoning behind the terminology. I still don't like it though. Frankly, if people can't be bothered to make the calculation from mass of carbon burned to mass of resulting carbon dioxide, they shouldn't be quoting numbers. I guess it just annoys me, just like it annoys me when people talk about Volts running through things. Alas, I wouldn't know a carbon from a lardon (during my fry-up attempts the one becomes the other) but I can spot an overcrowded political bandwagon when it runs me down and the occupants help themselves from wallet! Off subject, I note your interest in Russian WWII history and would recommend "Grand Illusion" by Gabriel Gorodetsky, Yale University Press, 0000 (try abebooks.com) for an excellent and scholarly overview of Stalin's grand strategy. In fact, now that I've dug it out, I must re-read it! There is a distinctive lack of posting on this blog, does Sakhalin lack electricity or will this be refuted by the appearance of a White Dwarf in the near future? You owe it to your audience to come clean.
