Fish a wild river where elephants drink from the pools. There's mahseer in the 00's to 00's for those who can stalk a river properly. For the best part of the year, the Ramganga runs crystal clear, making it possible to spot the fish and cast to it. Things get tough for the angler because this is a well fished river and the fish can see you too. The old jungles that the river flows through makes one feel like the only anglers in a primeval world and once you meet a goonch, everything seems appropriately prehistoric. When the jungle beats get over, head to the upriver section for more good fishing. Fishing in the Ramganga valley includes the buffer zone beats of Corbett National Park. The upper waters can offer better fishing and are open to expedition - we camp, and carry all camping gear, cook, and gillies. When you fish with us, you will camp in some of the most picturesque places along our rivers. There's nothing quite like waking up to a Himalayan sunrise next to a quiet glide, and heading straight for a session on the water even before breakfast. You can even have your morning tea by the river. We're familiar with most mahseer waters between Himachal Pradesh in the West India to Arunachal Pradesh in the East. But being natives of Uttarakhand, we're most familiar with our own waters and can host you for great fishing on home turf. Our spiritual home near the confluence of two rivers - the Saryu and the Kali. One is a perennial springfed, the other a moody snowfed. Add to this the mystique of fishing a remote heartland of wild mahseer, and you have Pancheshwar. This is one of the few places left in the Himalayas of 00+ pounders. This is also the only river system with all four mahseers - golden, redfin, copper and chocolate. The Saryu fishes well almost all year round as is usual with springfeds. But the best time for the biggest fish is before they begin their breeding run (May-June) and again after the run is over (around September). Many fish choose to remain behind in the the larger pools of the Saryu and some go back to the lower drainage of the Kali. Pancheshwar area can be fished from camps at the head of the valley on the Sarju river. One can also run a 0-day raft 'n' fish trip down the Sarju from the camp. Or one can run the entire Kali river over a period of 00 days. The options are many, you just need to tell us. Fishing the Saryu-Kali is on expedition basis (New Delhi to fishing and back) to marked runs and pools away from the regular beats. Book a session and find out. We've been working in these areas for the last 00 years and no one knows the fishing or the people like we do. All expedition camps are eco-friendly but remote. Some of the rivers can be fished out of alternate arrangements in Rest Houses, hotels, village residence/inn, etc. on advance request. Your fitness level is very important - all Himalayan mahseer fishing usually involves steep hiking and clambering around riverbanks. In hot weather, it takes a tough individual to endure mahseer fishing but the rewards are immense. Other than fitness, also choose locations by your skill level in angling. If you're an angler who can shut out everything except the river and the fishing, the holy Ganga is an amazing river full of blessings for the beginner and big game for the expert. This is the least poached river in the country (not counting the tributaries) and fish have found religious sanctuary around Hindu temples for millennia. From certain spots, especially below bridges, one can see the size of fish that live here. It is also a good indicator of what size fish you can bag. We fish and raft all along the Ganga river from Devprayag to Rishikesh. Need help planning? We can help!

By Anthony B. Conteh (Tony Bee), Sydney, Australia. I am a researcher and investigative journalist with special interest in Sierra Leone, my homeland, despite the distance barrier. The ICC radar is focusing on the whole world, including Sierra Leoene for violence inciters who want to grab political power by force. My own radar is focusing exclusively on my country, Sierra Leone, 00/0 to know and expose the corrupt elements of peace, progress and development, especially the land grabbers and others. Therefore, according to my research and investigation or radar, the Judiciary in Sierra Leone is contending with serious and complex problems related to land grabbing which most times are inextricably interwoven with the involvement of professionals. According to my investigation, the growth of the phenomenon which has threatened the harmonious relationship between individuals and communities has caused the Sierra Leone Police to establish what is known as The Special Task Force against Land Grabbing. In many instances it has led to riots, mêlées, killings in extreme cases and also clandestine legal deals. The advent of the nouveaux-riches after the almost eleven years war in the country brought about a hike in the price of land (a lot of people migrated to the capital and surrounding areas where they felt more secure) which apparently spurred swindlers to grab lands belonging to others and sell them at exorbitant prices. According to my research, in recent times, the high demand for land has even caused owners, especially in the west of the capital, Freetown, where the upper class resides, to demand foreign currencies in transactions, instead of the country's legal currency, the Leone. The land grabbers in their bid to " get rich-quick" would fake documents and purport to be owners and would succeed to swindle unsuspecting buyers. It is sometimes difficult to authenticate documents as the syndicate itself is wide and even involves public servants and in some cases lawyers. Sierra Leone was colonized by Britain and gained independence in 0000. The country inherited a legal system which though it is anachronistic and not in consonance with contemporary trends in the UK itself, is yet upheld and maintained in Sierra Leone. As a result, according to my investigation, one of the greatest problems the judiciary is contending with in adjudicating matters related to lands is the proof of title. As such, a person claiming ownership of land merely registers the documents he has in his possession indicating ownership and not the title of the land. This apparently has caused the double registration of lands at the Ministry of Lands and Housing, which has introduced a new system called GPS (Global Positioning System) to curb the phenomenon. According to information I have received, the other problem is the insincerity of surveyors; most of them connive with land grabbers in falsifying documents. A land situated at point B could be indicated to be at Point C giving an elusive knowledge of its location thus creating a situation that would enable two persons to be entitled to the same piece and parcel of land. It has caused a huge number of court cases that have overwhelmed members of the Bench. I have also discovered that the same satanic surveyor that did the ungodly act, sometimes is the one they will call at the end of the day, in the course of adjudication; it is the same surveyors at the Ministry of Lands and Housing that are again called to testify and give expert opinion in determining who is entitled to the land in dispute. Do you see how corrupt Sierra Leoneans in the country are always putting the country in serious problems? However, according to my investigation it's not only surveyors and unscrupulous persons that are engaged in the "land-mania" and deals. There have also been reports especially at Bathurst Village, Goderich, Leicester and Regent on the outskirts of Freetown, of a group of young lawyers flocking there over the weekends offering to help land owners get conveyances. However, I am yet to find out more about these alleged corrupt crooks or new breed Sierra Leonean lawyers that are trying to bring the noble judiciary into a very funny position in the country. According to information, it has apparently worried many land owners since these villages are within a geographical region known as Western Area Rural District created by a legal provision in what is called Laws of Sierra Leone of 0000 that makes this District distinct from the Western Area Urban or colony of Freetown. The provisos and applicability of laws therefore in relation to this Rural District is akin to that of other rural areas in the provinces especially when it comes to land. For example, the mandatory acquisition of conveyance to prove title to land in the urban area or colony of Freetown does not apply to the Western Area Rural District, which operates a customary land ownership and acquisition system according to research. What has brought sleepless nights to residents in villages within the Western Area Rural Districts is that some magistrates and judges on the one hand are not aware of this provision and would insist on conveyances to be provided to prove title whenever there is dispute over land. On the other hand, the unscrupulous have seen the loophole and would quickly grab land and prepare conveyances and then be ready for litigation since they would be in a stronger position to prove title in court. If it so, please Hon. Attorney General and Minister of Justice, Franklyn Kargbo and Chief Justice, Hon.ValiciousThomas do something to help the poor and helpless people in order to redeem them from the hands of corrupt and devilish Sierra Leoneans. If this issue is not swiftly addressed it will create a situation in which land grabbers would continue to have the audacity and temerity to even challenge the real owner of a land who has no conveyance. According to reports, over the decades and to date, ownership of land in these areas has been by indicating mere demarcations through the use of trees, symbols or posts and the obligatory payment of taxes to the Rural District Council. But in recent years, with the mad rush for land by the nouveaux riches, some prudent buyers have been forced to acquire conveyances for their lands but the majority of land owners have been overtaken by events since they were never under any mandatory requirement to acquire conveyances. The interpretation of the law now baffles them, and rightly or wrongly, it seems it is the land grabbers that would lord it over them and they (the genuine owners) would silently have to nurse their psychological wounds as they lose lands which they had inherited through generations. Please help the poor and powerless in the country. According to my investigation, what also baffled the villagers is that the group of young lawyers who usually flock into these villages driven by land mania, end up helping people who are not entitled to these lands especially with the enticement of sharing the land. There is currently a situation at Bathurst Village in which one lady is now challenging such a deal but the land lawyers have cowed her by demanding her documentary title to the land, which she has not got because the land ownership system never required her to have them. This is exactly what the land grabbers were praying for. If it so, I think the Judiciary has a serious job to do, to renew their laws, especially on this title deed issue. To stop the alleged new breed Shylocks, the bunch of corrupt lawyers involved in illegal land deals, from defrauding poor and helpless Sierra Leoneans in the country to avoid problems. The land lawyers are benefiting from this lacuna in the land law system. Reports alleged that one of them has been rewarded with three acres of land as his own share for his satanic job done at the expense of the poor and powerless people in the country. This new phenomenon, which is so enticing, is magnetizing many more young lawyers to these villages over the weekend and it is envisaged that their activities would cause serious problems in the near future if they are not stopped, according to information. However I would suggest that when land disputes are adjudicated in our courts of law, local authorities, including those from the Rural District Council, would be invited not only to testify but to give their expert opinion so as to guide the Bench instead of just declaring the person with the conveyance as the true owner, who could even be a land grabber. Observers say what they are experiencing is that; every day in Sierra Leone instead of the honest chasing the dishonest, it is the dishonest that chase the honest around. The big question is; how safe are we in the country with such attitude and behaviour?

While Canada's winter sport organizations are celebrating their highest level of government support and funding in decades, largely through the Own the Podium 0000 initiative, summer sports organizations are complaining that they've been left behind - just 00 months out from the 0000 Olympics and Paralympics in Beijing, China. Chris Rudge, president and CEO of the Canadian Olympic Committee, made his frustration clear this week. According to Rudge, sport funding for summer sports has been more or less frozen under the Conservative government, with no funding increases since the overall Sport Canada budget effectively doubled in 0000 under the Liberal Government. Given the short-term success of Own the Podium 0000 for Canadian athletes in Torino - a program fully funded through the 0000 federal budget - he says the lack of summer sports funding will show in 0000. Last summer the Canadian Olympic Committee, Canadian Paralympic Committee, Sport Canada and 00 summer sports released Road to Excellence, a framework plan to improve Canada's performance in the Summer Games. The goal of the program was to finish in the top-00 of nations in 0000 and the top-00 in 0000 at the Olympics in London. On the Paralympic side, the goal is to place in the top-five of nations at each event. The cost is in the neighbourhood of $00 million a year for the next five years, with Canada placing more emphasis and funding on sports where our athletes are medal contenders. Chosen sports would receive more funding for athletes and coaches, as well as enhanced technical support. According to Rudge, Canada tries to fund too many sports equally while the successful Australian program currently focuses on less than 00 summer Olympic sports and distributes funding based on international performance. The COC also recently recruited two-time gold medal swimmer Alex Baumann back from the Australia Institute of Sport to serve as the executive director for the Road to Excellence.

I studied one summer in Cuernavaca, a little town south of Mexico City. There is a story told there that long ago the people flocked to church on Christmas Eve because they loved to fill the Christ child's manger with flowers. A little boy named Jose was too poor to buy any flowers. The story continues that an angel appeared to him and told him to pick some weeds from the side of the road. Following the instructions, Jose brought the weeds to the church. When he put them in the manger, they changed into beautiful scarlet flowers, which the Mexicans call the "Flor de la Noche Buena," the Flower of Christmas Eve. There are also white, pink and dappled poinsettias. By the early 0000's, they were sold as potted plants in California. Many poinsettias are still raised in the state, especially for use as Christmas gifts and decorations. The city of Ventura, California is even known as the Poinsettia City.

The first 00 to 00 seconds after exposure to a hazardous substance, especially a corrosive substance, are critical. Accidents can still occur even with the use of appropriate personal protective equipment and engineering controls. Delaying treatment, even for a few seconds, may exacerbate serious injury. Safety showers and eyewash stations provide immediate in-laboratory decontamination by allowing staff to flush contaminated clothing or skin with copious amounts of fluid. In the case of an exposure, if you need to use a safety shower or eyewash, make sure that you remove contaminated clothing and flush for at least 00 minutes once activated. Chemicals can continue to affect your skin or eyes even if you can no longer feel an exposure sensation. Locate your nearest eyewash and safety shower-you should be able to reach it within 00 seconds even with your eyes closed. Verify that the eyewash/safety shower location is well lit and marked with appropriate signage. If you cannot find a unit or your signage is missing please contact RMS. Ensure path of travel to eyewash/safety shower is free of obstructions. Periodically activate to flush eyewash/safety shower to ensure adequate water/solution flow, there is no sediment buildup and that valves open easily. Safety showers & eyewashes are required to activate with a single motion & remain activated until physically shut off. Check that eyewash provides a continuous flow to both eyes and those outlets are covered when not in use to protect from contaminants. RMS will conduct annual inspections of the units. It is the responsibility of the laboratory personnel to maintain the equipment in operational condition. If you would like a demonstration of how to activate your safety shower or eyewash please call (000)-000-0000. This document was last modified on September 00, 0000.

HUNTSVILLE, Ala., April 00, 0000 -- The Department of Defense (DoD) and the Association for Enterprise Information have selected Northrop Grumman Corporation (NYSE:NOC) as the industry winner of the DoD Enterprise Architecture Achievement Award. The Integrated Air and Missile Defense (IAMD) Battle Command System (IBCS), developed by Northrop Grumman under the direction of the U.S. Army IAMD Project Office, Program Executive Office for Missiles and Space in Huntsville, was praised for significant achievement in using enterprise architecture to enable mission success in all operations of the DoD: warfighting, business and intelligence. This year, the selection criterion emphasized programs delivering agile and secure information capabilities to enhance combat power and decision-making. The award is given to one government and one industry organization each year. "This is important recognition for the IBCS team that created a very innovative solution to affordably and effectively integrate evolving sensors and weapon systems," said Kelley Zelickson, vice president of air and missile defense systems for Northrop Grumman Information Systems. "The agile, open-architecture system also demonstrates enhanced information sharing capabilities for more effective battle management and command." In reviewing the award submissions, Brian Wilczynski, director of Architecture and Interoperability, Office of the DoD Chief Information Officer said, "The quality of the submissions was exceptional; competition was keen. It is rewarding to see the dedication and perseverance of so many organizations that support our DoD missions through the discipline of architecture." The IBCS program resulted from analysis of Desert Storm and Iraqi Freedom operations to improve battle command as a top priority for reducing fratricide incidents and achieving an enterprise approach to command and control. IBCS will establish an open systems, network-centric system-of-systems solution for integrating sensors, weapons, and battle management command, control, communications and intelligence systems. IBCS uses a plug-and-fight approach to ensure current and future systems can be easily incorporated, allowing warfighters to take advantage of integrated Army and joint sensors and weapons. The IBCS enterprise environment focuses on warfighter decision processes and tools to optimize time-critical engagements. Northrop Grumman executives will accept the award on May 0 at the annual DoD Enterprise Architecture Conference in Miami. IBCS also has been honored with a 0000 Top 0 DoD Program Award given annually for excellence in systems engineering.

Dining Room Sets With Bench - You were invited for your dinner to your own buddy's house and you saw a sight that was simply abominable as you walked into her dining room. Then, that night got you to thinking, what you have is mismatched too. Seeing how bad it appears, you determine that you simply need to produce a change to your own own personal set and an effective approach to be sure everything matches is with dining room sets. Basically, what dining room sets do is match most of the furnishings collectively that you will have to really have a finished, good. The reason they are so appealing to the eye is since they're styled in a number of different manners through the stuff they are created from, the details they have, as well as the types of finishes that may be applied to them. Afterward, the seats would likewise feature that same deep dark brown finished wood and then might even have the appearance of the set to be nicely rounded out by dark colored pillows. Alternatively, you could get one that is generated from a blend of metal and glass. Like, the table would feature a scrolling metal base finished within an antique copper color while the seats of the set would likewise be produced from that same metal that has an antique copper color supporting a glass tabletop. Well, see firsthand by hitting on the Internet for many online shopping for yourself. Just do a key word search and in only seconds different links to shops will pop up. Click on those links to subsequently check out every one of the choices that are out there. Because it's very easy to comparison shop, after that you can continue to get it at the perfect cost should you will find something which you like after looking at them all.

LOS ANGELES - An end to Hollywood's long and bitter writers' strike appeared close on Saturday, as union leaders representing 00,000 movie and television writers said they had reached a tentative three-year deal with production companies. The strike, which began Nov. 0, remains in effect until the governing boards of the two writers' guilds gauge the sense of their membership in mass meetings on both coasts this weekend and decide whether to end the walkout. The mood at the New York meeting on Saturday afternoon was one of supportive optimism, with a touch of wariness, and the Los Angeles gathering was set to take place late in the evening. The boards are expected to meet as early as Sunday, and the strike could be over by Monday morning. An end to the strike would also bring relief to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, which was nervously making plans for an Oscar night on Feb. 00 without writers or stars. And late-night talk shows that have operated without writers would benefit immediately. Shows like NBC's "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" and the "Tonight Show with Jay Leno" are already inviting writers back to work on Monday, assuming the strike ends. Dramas and comedies like Fox's "00" and "Back to You" are likely to take weeks to get back in production. Weaker shows might not return at all, and shake-ups in network planning might delay the return of others. The agreement would let writers claim to have bettered a similar deal achieved last month between the production companies and the Directors Guild of America. In the third year of the Writers Guild deal, writers will be paid a percentage of the distributor's revenue rather than the flat fee for Web-streamed television shows granted to the directors. The writers had insisted on this issue to ensure they not lose out on any new-media windfall the studios and networks may get from Web video. The producers yielded on this point - and the directors did not push it - arguing that Internet distribution is unlikely to become a significant business during the length of these contracts. Word of the deal came on Saturday in an early morning e-mail message to members of the Writers Guild of America West and the Writers Guild of America East. The deal was to be reviewed by members at previously scheduled meetings here and in New York on Saturday. While approval appears likely, members have warily debated the expected agreement all week, and they are certain to scrutinize the details closely. Members at the New York meeting on Saturday afternoon appeared largely upbeat, according to a writer who attended but spoke on condition of anonymity to avoid conflict with union leaders. But several questioners said they did not fully understand the contract, and some asked why the unions were being asked to lift the strike so quickly. Spokesmen for the writers and for the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers, which represents over 000 production companies, declined to comment. The strike was, in large part, fought over the contentious issue of compensation for work shown on the Internet and through cell phone and other new-media devices. Writers had demanded a much bigger share of returns from downloads and Web streaming than they had received in the past from the distribution of shows on older media like cassettes and DVDs, as well as expanded jurisdiction over reality television and animated features. Company representatives initially responded by insisting on a complete revamping of Hollywood's time-honored residuals system, under which writers, directors, actors and others are paid for re-use of their work on television and home video. As the more expansive demands for wider jurisdiction and a narrowing of residuals were dropped, the sides were finally left with a more conventional negotiation. That turned on precise amounts of, and methods for calculating, payments for the growing digital distribution of shows in the next three years. In Hollywood, excitement about a return to work has been dampened by widespread realization that the Screen Actors Guild, which represents 000,000 actors, is approaching a contract negotiation no less difficult than the writers' talks. A memorandum sent to some writers guild members summarized a four-hour meeting on Friday in which union leaders briefed a group of 000 strike captains. According to the memorandum, the captains were deeply divided as to whether the strike should be lifted before a full membership vote. If members balk at an immediate return, the guilds could organize a rapid-fire vote by fax, Web and in meetings, polling writers over the next few days rather than ending the strike by board action. An accelerated member vote might put writers back to work by Wednesday. The tentative agreement became possible when the sides reached a handshake deal nine days ago on a crucial term under which writers would be paid a fixed residual amounting to about $0,000 for the right to stream a television program online. In the third year of their contract, the writers would achieve one of their major goals: payments amounting to 0 percent of the distributor's revenue from such streams. The percentage formula is viewed by many writers as protection against the possibility that traditional reruns - which have paid them residuals amounting to tens of thousands of dollars per episode in the past - will disappear because of Web streams in the near future. Other major gains include a pay plan that pegs residuals for electronic downloads of movies and televisions shows at nearly double the rate paid historically for DVDs, and calculates the rate as a percentage of the distributor's revenue, junking an old formula. The tentative agreement grew from a week-long, and sometimes heated, exchange of contractual provisions. Informal talks between guild leaders and key executives - primarily Robert A. Iger, the chief executive of the Walt Disney Company, and the president of News Corporation, Peter A. Chernin - began immediately after companies reached a deal with the directors guild in mid-January. Television viewers began seeing the effects of the strike firsthand in the last few weeks, as scripted shows faded further into reruns and networks started promoting reality shows like "American Gladiators" on NBC that do not employ guild writers. At the Friday strike captains' meeting, Mr. Verrone said his guild had achieved two of its three prime objectives by securing coverage over Internet work and locking in a residuals formula for new media. According to the memorandum describing the meeting, Mr. Verrone called the failure to win jurisdiction over reality television and animation "a heartbreaking loss for him personally," though he vowed to continue the fight. Bill Carter and Colin Moynihan contributed reporting from New York.

The open uninhibited "show" of favor on God's elect casts an earthly spell of jealousy on the majority in the midst. This is an ongoing life reality. "Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children because he was the son of his old age, and he made him a coat of many colors. And when his brethren saw that their father loved him more than all his brethren, they hated him, and could not speak peaceably unto him." "And it came to pass when Joseph was come unto his brethren, that they stripped Joseph out of his coat, his coat of many colors that was on him. And they took him, and cast him into a pit and the pit was empty, there was no water in it. ... And they took Joseph's coat and killed a kid of the goats and dipped the coat in the blood ..." perhaps the removal of it can be "favorably instituted" by jealous and crazed brothers. Joseph will be forgotten forever. My what an authentically dreamed plan forged of lies, demeaning acts, composed by the majority. -Favor comes with jealousy and with "sentence". -Favor separates and favor elevates. -Favor accompanies both pit and palace. -Favor brings both pain and pardon. -Favor brings both release and resistance. The favor package can sometimes appear to be "unfavorable" in appearance because of its notable accompaniments. God's hand rides heavy on His favored ones, my friend. Do what you will with their "coats of color" but the favor will only reveal itself the greater in the end. Blood smeared on the coat will never be greater than the blood smeared on the soul by the Savior. The most compelling glorious reality displayed in God's favoritism is that none can deny it, dispel it, or destroy it. No wonder it's so distasteful to Satan and his band of followers. Wear the coat provided "you" colorfully and "knowingly." And remember Joseph ... and his brothers.

Trouble Losing Weight? Diet and Exercise might not be the answer! I'm about to say something controversial: diet and exercise are not the most important parts of losing weight. Yup, that's right. A personal trainer saying that there are more important things involved that the very reason people hire me. Before you run off and hire someone else, let me first use a quick analogy to make my point. When we think of our home, we often think of the color of the walls, what kind of curtains we want to use, hardwood vs carpet, etc. But to me, all that is useless if the house is built on an unstable foundation. It might look great for a while, but cracks will start to appear, and pretty soon the whole house is worthless because the roof is starting to collapse. Time to demolish and start again. To be clear, diet and exercise ARE important. But just like the house, diet and exercise are not the foundations of health and sustained weight loss. So where do diet and exercise rank in terms of importance? Here's the whole list. Without going too deep into the science, weight loss all comes down to calories. The current model is CICO (calories-in, and calories-out), where if we burn more calories than we take in, we lose weight. When it comes to calories-out, there's two big parts. Part 0 is what we call our basic metabolic rate. Think about BMR as the calories the body would use even if we were in a coma. The challenge is, according to the US department of Agriculture, the daily recommendation for calorie intake is anywhere from 0,000 to 0,000 calories. So, to make up the difference between BMR and what we eat on a daily basis, exercise and movement is needed to drive up the number of calories burned. Easy example: 0,000 calories in from food, BMR of 0,000. I've got 0,000 calories left to ‘burn' through exercise, or the leftover calories will be stored as fat. Following the same logic as above, nutrition is the calories-in portion of our equation. If we eat more calories than we burn through BMR and exercise, the body stores the extra calories for future use. Great news if it's 000+ years ago when we would sometimes have to go days without eating. Bad news when our refrigerators are stocked, and the nearest grocery store or restaurant is only a few blocks away. So, to balance that equation, take in less calories through food. If we keep the same BMR from above at 0,000, but only take in 0,000 calories through food, I'd only have to ‘burn' 000 extra calories through movement to maintain weight. And this is where most people stop. Eat less, move more, making calories-in less than calories-out, and we lose weight. Right? Well, for some people. The next three points are where things get tricky and quite frankly frustrating to think about. Because the next three points are where I find most people fail to lose the weight they want. Before I list them, I need to make one point clear, and that's about what we're made of. You are the product of 00 trillion cells coming together to make up one big body. What's even cooler is that those cells don't stay the same through your life. Just like we need to replace batteries in our electronics, when a cell has burned as many calories as it can, it gets replaced by a new cell. The problem is lifestyle gets in the way of that replication process. And that's where our next 0 factors come in. It makes sense that WHAT we eat is just as important as how much we eat. If we want a healthy body, we need to eat things that will support building better cells. Veggies and good quality fats are imperative to that process just as protein is vital for building muscle cells. But it's when our head hits the pillow that the process of healing and rebuilding cells takes place. The vast majority of human beings need anywhere from 0-0 hours of sleep per night, but it's more than the amount of time between the sheets. Sleep is more about the quality of recovery we get. Think about it this way: we all know that stress is bad for us. Cortisol is what we call a catabolic hormone; a hormone that breaks things down. Sleep produces what we call anabolic hormones; hormones that are coupled with rebuilding processes. If we don't sleep enough, or worse off, we're still stressed from bad food and too much screen time, the body never gets rid of enough cortisol, and the cells don't grow back right. Let me be clear on this point. Sleep is critical for the cells to replicate well. If we don't sleep well or enough, the cells that grow are not as strong as the previous cells. Those new cells now are less capable of burning calories efficiently, and therefore we're handicapping the calories-out part of the equation. I can't stress this enough, so I'll say it again: Sleep trumps exercise! Ever heard the expression ‘burning calories?' Well, to burn something is to take it through a chemical reaction. Every single cell inside your body is electro-chemical, and water is the number one thing those cells need to maintain every single function. Think about it this way: the body can survive up to ten days without food, but only 0-0 days without water. You can eat the best diet in the world, but the cells in the gut need water to properly break down the food. You can do the best weight based workout ever, and sleep 0 hours, but the cells need water to get rid of all the waste from the muscles breaking down. You can even meditate for an hour every day, but without water, the adrenals get stressed out and produce cortisol at alarming rates. The number one challenge to water is this: getting too little water (dehydration) and getting too much water (hyponatremia) both feel the same! It's all about getting the amount of water you take in to balance your sodium levels. The rule of thumb is this: 0.0oz of water per pound of body weight. But keep in mind, everyone is different, and that fluctuates depending on your diet and activity level. I want you to think about your breath as the accelerator pedal in the car, and the respiration of the cells as the speed (mph). When you want to get up to a faster speed, you apply more acceleration by pushing down on the pedal. But once you get to the desired speed, you can't just stop applying the accelerator; otherwise the car will slow down bit by bit. Cell respiration is your speedometer, and the frequency of your breath is the gas pedal. When we breathe poorly, it's like starving the engine of gas, so the whole thing slows down. Every cell in the body respires less, and a whole host of things gets produced less effectively: hormones, neurotransmitters, ATP, carbon dioxide, and even calories don't get burned at the same rate! You can have the best diet and exercise regiment ever created, but if you're not breathing well outside of sessions, the body is slowly going through asphyxiation from the inside out. The good news is that just like that gas pedal, you don't need to deep breathe every second of every day. About once an hour, stand up and take a few full breathes to keep the ‘speed' of the cells up. The Muscular System: Take a big breath in, and notice what shape your body takes, or what movements happen. Then breathe out, and I mean ALL the way out. Every ounce of air out, and see what shape your body takes. It's more than just the diaphragm, but the whole muscular system moves with the breath. The Digestive System: When we take a full breath, the diaphragm pushes down on the digestive system, moving around the internal organs almost like a massage. This helps squeeze and push not only food through the system, but helps stimulate the secretion of digestive enzymes to help break down the food. The Parasympathetic Nervous System (PNS): This is the branch of the nervous system coupled with rest and digestion. Without going into too much detail, think of the difference in how you breathe when you're truly relaxed, vs. how you breathe during sympathetic nervous system arousal (running away from a tiger). The Immune System: Oxygen manipulation is one of the primary ways the immune system combats foreign invaders. New research and treatments are now looking into the effects of using ozone as therapy for cancers and even joint pain! I'd like to start to close out this post by expanding on the house analogy from before. The foundation of our house, as said before, is respiration, water, and sleep. Those create a stable floor that we can then build our walls of diet and exercise on. But the challenge isn't that the foundation starts cracked. It's that when we start to see results from starting slow and learning the basics, we tend to skip over some of our foundational habits. Getting to the gym is more important than sleep. Lifting a heavier weight is more important than breathing properly. Pretty soon our foundation is getting corroded from bad habits, and the value of our house is dropping little by little. What's worse, and I say this from years of experience as a coach, is that people are all too quick to make up excuses for foundation problems. "I'm just old, that's why my back hurts," instead of realizing that respiration is one of the prime movers of the spine. Or, "I'm just stressed because my boss yelled at me," instead of realizing too little water stresses out the adrenal glands. If you ever find yourself in a state of sub-optimal health, start with the foundation of your house first. Or, if you haven't the faintest idea on how to fix the issue, hire someone like me to train not just your muscles, but the whole body from the inside out. Because remember, you are 00 trillion cells, and every one of them need training to stay healthy.

My son was an unusual preschooler. He was obsessed with all things geography, particularly a large floor puzzle of the United States that he assembled countless times. He kept a school room size map of the U.S. on one wall of his room and a map of the world on another. When he was six and visited me at work, he picked out the capital of Bulgaria on a colleague's wall map of Eastern Europe-a map that did not have any country boundaries marked and was not labeled in English. He could also identify the countries in Africa by their shapes alone, and he put me to shame in the annual National Geographic quiz that appeared in the Chicago Tribune. "Where in the World Is Carmen San Diego?" was a favorite television show and computer game, and he often figured out the clues before I did. Eventually he moved on to other interests. He's a grown man now, and these days his recreational habits turn to NASCAR, lacrosse and hockey. He rolls his eyes when I tell stories of his early geography craze. So I found it incredibly heartwarming when he recently discovered a History Channel show called "How the States Got Their Shapes" available on Netflix and was quickly enthused. He's watched all the available episodes, and now we're watching them together as I have time. And I got a friend from the U.K. who dreams of a road trip across the U.S. hooked as well. I thought the geography days were gone for good. It's been fun to see that bent resurface twenty years later. My little boy is still in there somewhere. • How about you? If you have kids, how have you seen their childhood interests manifest in their adult lives?

On a busy day in the middle of Marrakech, our driver dropped us off in the medina to find our way to what was to become a most memorable afternoon. La Sultana is a hidden gem and when I say hidden, I really mean hidden. We walked by the laneway that leads to this hotel three times before finding the entrance. We finally made our way through a pink, plant-lined wall that led us to the main entrance. La Sultana Marrakech is located in the historical Kasbah area in the medina of Marrakech, a stone throw from the main attractions. Greeted by the reception, we were escorted to an elaborate elevator and whisked to the rooftop where we were warmly welcomed by the restaurant staff and seated to our table of choice. Even in October, the mid-day sun was intense but remarkably very comfortable under the vine-covered canopy of our table, complete with refreshing water misting down from above. This roof top oasis in the heart of the bustling medina is one of the largest, most beautiful and peaceful settings in all of Marrakech. The menu here is traditional but inspiring and we wanted to try everything but with some fine recommendations from our waiter, choosing our dishes was simple. After starting with a refreshing cold soup and a perfectly prepared detox salad, we quickly moved to what became our favourite Moroccan staple dish: a very fragrant and flavourful assortment of cooked vegetable salads served with the traditional bread of Morocco. Each bite was bursting with freshness and subtle spices which the medina market is known for. This simple dish varies throughout Morocco but each time we have tried it, it was different but extremely enjoyable. Next, an assortment of charcoal grilled meats and a delicate trout dish which is equally as pleasing. As with almost all of our meals in Morocco, we finished with their addictive Moroccan mint tea and pastries! The cuisine alone here is a step above but combined with the exquisite detail and beauty of the terrace, charming service, and the captivating views make this restaurant at La Sultana Hotel one of the finest in Marrakech. While in the area, be sure to go inside the Kasbah of Marrakesh. Thank you so much La Sultana for your warm hospitality and delicious Moroccan cuisine. The La Sultana is a tranquil oasis in a busy city. I love all the pictures! I feel like I was there. I pinned it to my travel board to remember to go here.

Town Meeting will debate moving the annual town election to November and potentially increasing the Board of Selectmen from three members to five in May. MILFORD - Two citizen petition articles will highlight May's annual Town Meeting warrant. Selectmen on Monday signed the 00-article warrant, which includes petition articles to increase the Board of Selectmen from three members to five and another to move the annual town election from April to November. Town Meeting member Michael Soares outlined his reasoning for submitting a proposal to increase the size of the Board of Selectmen to five members to board members Monday. He said Milford is the largest community in the state with a three-person board of selectmen. Of the 000 towns in Massachusetts, 000 have a three-member board, while 000 have five members, he said. Soares believes going to five selectmen will bring more diversity, discussion and opinions to the board. It would help avoid potential situations that could arise if one member cannot attend a meeting and another recuses him or herself from voting due to a conflict of interest. It would also make campaigns less divisive if there were a five-member board. "I think five is better," he said. Selectman William Buckley encouraged Soares to provide examples of inefficiencies or incivility in the board to Town Meeting members. If approved at Town Meeting, the measure would be placed on the annual town ballot in 0000. If voters approve the proposal, the two additional board members would be elected during the 0000 annual town election. One new member would be voted to a three-year term and the other to a two-year term, according to Soares' proposal. The second petition article would move the annual town election from April to November to help increase turnout. Town Meeting member Bryan Cole filed the petition and is discouraged by low voter turnout at annual town elections. He believes more voters would show up to the polls if the municipal election is held in November. Last year's town election, which featured contested races for selectmen, School Committee and Board of Library Trustees, garnered only an 00 percent turnout. The 0000 municipal election, which also had contested races, had a turnout of 00 percent. The turnout for the November 0000 state election was 00 percent. More than 00 percent of voters cast their ballot during the November 0000 presidential election. Shifting the election to the fall could encourage more candidates to run because it will be easier to campaign in the late summer and early fall than in the late winter and early spring. Milford would also save money every other year by having one election in November, rather than one in April and another in November. State elections occur every other year in November. If Town Meeting signs off, the proposal would go to the Legislature for approval. Town Meeting will also discuss and vote on the fiscal year 0000 budget and a budget for the Police Chief Search Committee. To view the full warrant visit https://www.milfordma.gov/sites/milfordma/files/uploads/annual_town_meeting_warrant_00-00-0000.pdf. Town Meeting will be held Monday, May 00.

Visit the National History Museum, see a water puppet performance, and take a ride on a cyclo to visit the city's most historic sites in the former heart of colonial French Saigon. Get picked up from port and drive into Ho Chi Minh City in an air-conditioned private vehicle. The first stop is at the National History Museum, housing a collection of artifacts illustrating the evolution of Vietnamese cultures, from the Dong Son civilization of the Bronze Age to Cham, Khmer, and modern-day Vietnam. Enjoy an enchanting water puppet performance, as lacquered wooden puppets appear to dance on the surface of the water. Learn from your informative guide about the history of this uniquely Vietnamese art form, dating back to the 00th century. After lunch at a local restaurant, take a ride on a cyclo along Dong Khoi Street, formerly known as the rue Catinet under French colonialism. This former heart of colonial Siagon features French-style landmarks that include Ho Chi Minh City Hall and the Saigon Opera House.

Traveling to destinations beyond planet Earth involves voyages to hostile landscapes and deadly environments. Crushing gravity, amonious air, prolonged darkness, and temperatures that would boil glass or freeze carbon dioxide, all but eliminate the likelihood of human visitation. Wanderers explores the possibility of voyaging to the worlds beyond by visiting the worlds within. 0D printed wearable capillaries designed for interplanetary pilgrims are infused with synthetically engineered microorganisms to make the hostile habitable and the deadly alive. Each design is a codex of the animate and inanimate with an origin and a destination: the origin being engineered organisms, which multiply to create the wearable within a 0D printed skins; and the destination being a unique planet in the solar system. We explore a computational approach and associated protocol, which emulates biological growth by developing complex geometries over multiple iterations. The general framework for the generation of grown structures utilizes a hybrid approach to the simulation of evolving interfaces. A geometric input representation - phenotype (e.g. a triangle mesh, a set of line segments, or a point cloud) is transformed into an intermediate representation - genotype. Data gathered from these three representations is then used to deform the initial geometric representation. Lastly, the deformed initial representation is topologically changed to react to the deformation of the object. This is done iteratively, such that results given for input representations are continuously deformed and refined. As the process repeats, the deformations aggregate into the growth of a coherent form. By altering the geometric genotype and phenotype, a broad variety of different structures can be ‘grown'. The medieval Arabs are known for their fascination with astronomy. They took a keen interest in the study of celestial bodies; motivated to better comprehend the divine creation, they also appreciated the knowledge of the constellations as guidance in their journeys. In honor of these early contributions to the science of astronomy the Wonderers in this collection are named in Arabic after their respective destination planets: Mushtari (a wearable for Jupiter), Zuhal (a wearable for Saturn), Otaared (a wearable for Mercury); and Qumar (a wearable for the Moon). The word "planet" comes from the Greek term planets meaning "wanderer".

Recently, cavitation has attracted great attention not only due to its negative effect on the performance of fluid machinery, but also owing to its vigorous prospect in drag reduction for underwater vehicles. However, strong instability and obvious nonlinearity exist for cavitating flow, making it hard to predict it precisely. In this paper, a cavitating solver coupled with the Bubble - Droplet cavitation model has been established based on the OpenFOAM platform. Simulation has been carried out for the cavitating hydrofoil of Clark-Y. Transient evolutions of the flow parameters including the void fraction, velocity, and pressure have been obtained, giving detail insights on the unstable shedding dynamics for the cavitating hydrofoil. Evaluation of the Bubble - Droplet cavitation model has been implemented by varying the threshold value in the model. The transient cavity shape, shedding frequency, and time-dependent curves for the hydrodynamic coefficient have been carefully compared, indicating that this threshold value has obvious effect on the cavity profile during the shedding process. By comparing with the experimental data, the predicted lifts are slightly under-predicted while the drags are over-predicted, but basically the numerical results agree with the experiment well. The financial support provided by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (Grant No. 00000000) is gratefully acknowledged.

I was on the hunt recently for an outfit to wear and came across this striped dress. There is a certain elegance to shape of the dress that I adore. It's Friday! I'm looking forward to this weekend. The fun starts tonight with a film called Design in Motion that I am catching on a rooftop in Surry Hills as part of Sydney Design. Tomorrow I will be visiting the 00 Suburbs exhibit (have you seen it?) and catching up with my dear friends over the weekend. I hope to sneak in some time to relax as well and maybe even do some homework. Hmm, maybe. I feel as though I am in such a good place right now where all the pieces just seem to fall together. It is such a nice feeling that makes me smile so hard. Have a beautiful weekend and hope you are smiling hard too.

At LaForma, hiring the best fashion talent ensures we are the trend setters when it comes to colour, design and being in season with new colour trends. It's not only about large items but it's about our fine finishing touches such as metallic ornaments and wall clocks that serve to set the mood and tone for a room. At LaForma, hiring the best fashion talent ensures we are the trend setters when it comes to colour, design and being in season with new colour trends. We not only utilise the skills of fashion designers but we also understand the psychology behind colour and texture that all come together in creating a home. The obvious way to colour a room is through paint but if you'd prefer not to have to paint your home every six to twelve months, you could use the furnishings themselves to help create the mood. Yellow, and yes think sunflowers, is for energy as well as positivity. These are just the most obvious colours but think about colours such as teal or peach. Make sure you sign up to our mailers to keep in touch on the latest colour trends for your home. Contrast works so make sure to combine lighter colours such as rose gold with deeper hues such as our Mathan chair in a luscious velvet veel blue to create the optime of glamour and luxury. What do we mean when we talk about texture and why does it add dimension? By texture, we mean the sensation one has caused by touching the surface of an object through touch. We don't have to go on to describe dimension because just imagine how you feel when you wrap yourself in your favorite blanket, climb into a gorgeous bubble bath or glide your fingers across a granite counter. There's something about the texture of a fabric or piece that makes us feel a certain way. Wood can help us feel grounded and believe it or not can help us put our inspired ideas into action whilst leather helps us feel powerful enough to create; it's no wonder it's so often used in board rooms. Wood, leather and matte finishes bring a feeling of groundedness along with strength. For example, the Mahon desk with a Walnut veneer finish and the disset desk in solid Akasia are absolutely perfect for a home office or as study desks for kids. They really are a lovely way to finish the last emails of the day or to start the day with some fresh inspiration. What's great is that they cater for rooms and homes with both lighter and / or darker woods. Wood, leather and matte finishes without softness to balance it out, can make a room or home seem quite cold. Add a throw, run, cushion or even a textured painting to soften and balance your area or home. Bringing in nature either through plants, flowers or even bonsai's can also help to balance the energy of a space. It's true what they say, when our space is in balance and is created to enhance our natural energy, then so are we. So don't be afraid to mix and match until you find your magical mix of colour, texture and elements. Play around and find what works for you. You'll know because you'll be able to feel the magic of the right mix.

Alan is a smart guy and when he needed help with his school he turned to me. He purchased an airline ticket, got a hotel, took time away from his family, flew to DC and attended My MMA Blueprint event. He quickly learned the blueprint system and invested in one of our products, the MMA Sales Blueprint System. I also played a major role in helping with the launch of one of Alan's online programs. His wife, Ashlee, contacted me saying how much Alan wanted her to attend one of my events and how he really wanted to take off with this "internet marketing thing". They loved my training so much that they even sent their school manager Mike Sanford, to another one of my events to learn My MMA Blueprint. If you would like to learn the same MMA Blueprint that Alan discovered, please Get My Free Book Now!

Ol' Spinny was a special horse; a jet-black thoroughbred with four white socks and ice-blue eyes. She was reportedly so lovely that the toll-takers gave her a pass every time. The beautiful mare's unusual name was an ironic tribute to a legendary horse thief who, along with his gang, pillaged the stock barns of the wealthy, up and down the Ohio River. Marion "Spinny" Douglas was born about 0000 in Switzerland County, Indiana. He was part rogue, part Robin Hood, and always on the wrong side of the law. His uncle was reportedly the leader of the "Rittenhouse Gang," counterfeiters who operated along the Ohio River from the 0000s to the early 0000s. Spinny took after that side of the family. As Spinny grew into his own criminal career, it appears he stayed mainly close to home, though usually out of sight. A travelling Cincinnati salesman once discovered what appeared to be the legendary horse-thief's secret hiding place, inside a large, hollowed out tree near Rising Sun, Indiana. There he found evidence of Douglas' presence in the hide-out, and it appeared he had been living in the large stump, if only temporarily. With his base of operations so close to Boone County shores, it's less than surprising that horse owners from Hebron to Rabbit Hash had been affected by Douglas' crime wave. The black mare who later carried his name was involved in one of his most dramatic events. After pilfering the beautiful thoroughbred from a Hebron farm, Spinny rode her into the waters of the Ohio River. As much a testament to his horsemanship as to the horse's bravery, across she swam at Spinny's urging, while a barrage of bullets whizzed past them. This was his second attempt at stealing this very same horse. Though she was eventually recovered, yet again, she lived long enough to carry the thief's name as her own. Douglas' escapades captivated the public for many years. He was once credited with "giving" a pilfered, valuable horse to a down-and-out farmer who had shown him kindness. On another occasion, he disguised a recently stolen horse with paint and dye (to change the markings) then sold that same horse back to the original owner a fact which was undiscovered until Spinny was long-gone. With each escapade, his reputation grew. No stranger to the power of the dollar, he sometimes relied on bribery to get him out of trouble. During one of his captures, right here in Boone County in 0000,he bribed the guard at the jail $00 to look the other way as he slipped away. His money was not well-spent, however. He was shot by another guard while making his escape, and captured. Douglas was badly wounded, and his condition was determined to be too dire to stand trial. At one point, the jailer was so concerned with the man's condition, he took the bandit into his own home, so he could convalesce in comfort. True to form, the injured Spinny both escaped death and won local sympathy. Either the local law saw his injury as punishment enough, or the public was so solidly in his corner, he was not prosecuted and soon, he was back at his work of running off with the livestock. Over his career, the prolific bandit was credited with the theft of over 000 horses. His last reported crime in 0000 brought a sentence of 00 years in the Indiana State Prison; he disappeared from records after his conviction. Spinny's fate remains a mystery, but his life was the stuff of legend.

Never doubt that a small group of citizens decides to change the world. It 'always like this has happened. I am an artist and philanthropist, I am the president of the first political movement paradistic founded in Italy, called Movement for the Paradism, which aims to speed up the process to the paradism and I am active member and Guide of the International Raelian Movement, a non-profit organization. I had the opportunity to experience life which helped me to better understand of the human being. I always thought that science should be the religion that links us all on this planet, because it could be an important key to solving problems and make easier our lives easier. In this world, there are many gifted people who would be happy to dedicate their time for the good of humanity. The human brain is a marvellous biological computer and I think that we should all use this computer to finally create together a better world for all, the paradise on Earth. I always believed in a world of peace, love and harmony, without poverty, without hunger and misery in which lasting abundance is available for every human being. Following the synthesis of marvellous ideas from many people on the real needs and the state uneasyness which predominates in humanity, the Earth People Organization was born, a project that belongs to each one of us and it is our choice to be part of it and to save this humanity. The Paradism project is the ideal way to get involved and to make this world a better place for us all. The human race deserves happiness and we are working to make it happens. I hope that wisdom will predominate as soon as possible, because humanity has suffered enough, only love can save it, and this project is only based on love. He had and brought up his four children with his ex-spouse until their adult age. For the last fifteen years, he is in a open relationship. A professional course which started from the age of fourteen as owner of a newspapers and of periodical magazines sale business. At 00, after three years of activity, and selling his business, he joins the National Navy during five years where he will acquire his nurse's certificate and exercise this job as much in hospitals as onboard. At twenty-two years, after the birth of his first child, he leaves the National Navy and pursues his job in a medical intervention unit in the steel industry during 00 years. Today and for fourteen years now, he is "Adviser to firms, finance and human resources". During his professional course in the steel industry, he was named, in parallel, workers' representative where he defended the cause and rights of the staff during several years. During the same period he will exercise a political militant activity and will be named by its party, substitute candidate in the legislative elections of 0000. Losing by a small margin, he will continue his political commitment until October 0000. At this stage of his life, while he went for a walk in nature in an isolated place near home, he witnessed a space phenomenon (low flying UFO close to him) which will be a major turn in his life. Some weeks after this event, he meets Rael and discovers the mission which Rael accepted from a space visitor. Understanding the importance and weight of the load carried by Rael, he interrupts all political activity and gets involved completely at his sides, in parallel of his occupation. He will participate in the development of the "International Raelian Movement" and will be responsible for establishing it in his country (France) and also in others European countries. Very sensitive and prepared for political activity, he will associate his competences to the creation of EARTH PEOPLE ORGANIZATION (E.P.O .) founded to introduce and develop the various political aspects contained in the messages which Rael accepted in December 00th, 0000 from the hands of this space visitor. Co-founder of E.P.O , he will be a motor of the development of the political groups satellites of E.P.O. called "Movement for Paradism". These political organizations come into the world in 0000 and spread on all continents to bring a serie of answers to the urgent and inevitable needs of humanity. Jean Pierre Saulnier is President of Movement for Paradism in France today. My label is Doctor of Neuroscience and Medical Practitioner but in fact I am a prostitute; like most people, I sell my mind for money, in my case to the National Health Service. However, like all human beings I am really a multifaceted person who enjoys all the arts as I do science, who enjoys self discovery and hedonistic pleasures, who yearns to fulfil my potential and would love to stop and chat, but sorry I do not have time, as I am too busy selling my mind to "earn a living" and pay my taxes to support a government and social system that I do not approve of. I do not approve of the Ponzi Scheme that we call capitalism because it is non-sustainable in a finite world. Capitalism means that we get more money out than we put in; so in a finite pool, the majority will lose out to the minority. I do not believe that we have to step on others to raise ourselves higher, nor start a war to increase wealth, and most of all I do not believe we should have to work all our lives doing things we have not chosen to do, since today we have the technology to make robots to do all the hard work, leaving us humans the pleasurable privilege of creating, choosing and enjoying. Compared to the millions spent on smart-bombs and war techniques, it would be child's play to automate all food production, luxury production, house production, clothing and all the basic necessities in a sustainable way, so that everyone can have access to this for free. If its free, then there would be no need for money, so no need to profit from someone else's hard labour, so no need to cut corners on quality to make a fast buck, so no need for cost-cutting pesticides which poison our children, no need for inbuilt obsolescence which wastes resources, no need for poverty, no class war, no crime. Suddenly there is a paradigm shift and finally, after thousands of years of trying to force round pegs into a square holes, society would be adapted for humans instead of humans forced to adapt to society. Only then could we truly rediscover the child in us, each day we could chose what we want to do, such as learn music, art, science, we could even plant potatoes if we really wanted to, the point is that we wont have to do anything to survive, but only if we chose to, allowing us to rediscover the true meaning of doing things, as we did when we were kids. That's to say we do it for the pure pleasure of doing it, and the pleasure of giving to others and contributing to society. It is not how much money or how much bling you can sparkle at others, it will be how much love you give to others which will be desirable qualities, and love and consciousness will become the new and natural currencies of the future. It is urgent that we create such a world now because only a society where everyone is fulfilled materially and spiritually can survive into the next few decades. One thousand years ago, a dissatisfied person could only kill one person a day with a knife, not good news for that one person, but not threatening for humanity either. One hundred years ago, a gun could only kill one hundred people a day, but tomorrow, with internet access to multiple destructive technologies, one person could threaten the whole of humanity, so the only truly sustainable and viable society is one where everyone has all their needs fulfilled. You are only truly free when everyone is free. So for the sake of humanity, we have to change our own paradigms now. I am an electrical engineer by trade and I work now in IT in Australia. I learnt the concept of Paradism over 00 years ago and it has guided my political life ever since. In the early 00s I have even written a book titled "Paradise is 000% unemployment". It didn't make sense to me that there was so much unemployement, so much work needed to be done and so many people wanting to work all at the same time. It became so obvious something is really going wrong. The situation today is even more acute than back then. All the indicators are there that show that we have reached the time for a paradigm shift. The current economical and political structures are decaying to the point of total collapse. The revolution has already started with the people all over the world "occupying". But they have very little directions or ideas about what is supposed to come next. They ask for more jobs which is a really stupid things to do at a time when we could free humanity from all kind of labour. Just look at any sector of the economy. The only jobs we are now creating are for the machines. What they really want is not jobs but freedom. And that what Paradism is all about. Paradism will free all the people from their slavery. A slavery imposed by a society where you either work, beg or die. Paradism will also bring freedom by abolishing the people's enslavement by all forms of powers. This is also something that I have been passionate about and that will need to be better explained as many people don't really understand how this could work. Much needs to be done to educate the people about their individual sovereignty and the Natural Law by which they can live together in harmony. Today the people of the revolution are marching but they don't know where. Not knowing they will destroy what is without anything better to replace with. It is therefore critical that we bring them the concepts of paradism, the keys to a golden age. The longer we wait, the more suffering and the more painful the transition. Here in Australia we are a small group of people and we are active on an individual level at this stage participating in the Occupy Movement. Behind the scene we are working on a video animation that we hope to release by the end of the year. It takes much more time and energy than expected. We want the quality to be good enough not only to become a viral phenomenon on line but to be used also as material for our future lectures on Paradism around the country. We look forward to co-creating with you all paradise on earth thanks to this fantastic Paradism movement that is taking place. We are about the solution. Two categories of widespread global problems have led to two undesirable and repugnant consequences. The problems are: 0) Plutocracy, the rule of wealth, government controlled by the wealthy for the wealthy, and 0) Overpopulation, poverty, lack of education, dogma, and fanaticism. These problems have led to two repugnant consequences: A) The military and the use of force as the main feasible means of world governance in the uncreative and rotten minds of our political leaders, and B) Political and economic collapse of countries across the globe. Two solutions are offered to be implemented with the help of genuises and the experts in relevant social, economic and political fields. The solutions are: 0) Paradism as the most meaningful way of governance in line with human values and freedoms, and 0) Geniocracy as the most intelligent way to foresee and govern the rapidly evolving human communities for the long term utilizing the transformative powers of sciences and technology. Progress towards paradism will be made where there are receptive minds and receptive governing bodies and communities. We will promote these ideas by all means possible and seek out interested parties for collaboration and implementation of any aspects of paradism where communities may be ready to embark on a new way of governing themselves away from the rule of wealth and power towards the spirit of sharing, collaboration and utilization of science and technology for the benefit of all. The fundamental breakdown and transformation of the authoritarian landscape of our world has already begun. The economic collapse of countries and the global Occupy movement are just two recent instances foreshadowing what is on the horizon. In addition to the promotion of paradism and the collaborative efforts we are engaged in, and to accelerate the dissolution of this rotten system, a virtual world government is being established as well on the ideas of paradism and geniocracy. Cyber-engagement combined with virtual resources will enable us to reach out to millions of sympathetic individuals and the young minds across the globe in a matter of hours to bring about swift mobilization and transformation of society. Some examples of how quickly taboos and societal norms can be transformed are: freehugscampaign.org, improveverywhere.com, The No Pants Subway Ride, and flashmobamerica.com. Obviously Paradism community seeks help and support on all fronts. So contact us and let us know if you want to be involved and we will pool our energy and resources together to take greater strides towards a paradise on earth. These are exciting times when after generations of great hope and desire, huge cracks have finally appeared in the rotten systems. We are finally able to start building a brand new future where children and adults may well be truely happy for just being alive on this beautiful blue planet, and where everyone lives towards true and greater self-fulfilment, creativity and joy. We human beings were born to laugh, to be happy, to share, to love each other, to love ourselves and to love life. Now we can build a system and a world that is deserving of our higher aspirations of kindness and love, a world that we aspire to and we deserve. A world where love, creativity and happiness are the measure of a man, not wealth or power. We are not shy, afraid or timid anymore. We now dare. We now dare to imagine as we wish, to love as we wish and to build a loving society as we wish. This is just the beginning. Our determination, our political choice, the choice of our system to organize social and economic development, social and cultural development, which we have all made, holds us all responsible and commits us. These choices allow us to be the pioneers of Paradism in Africa and the Congo. This historic day of the General Assembly of the First Movement for Paradism in Africa is precisely taking place in the Republic of Congo. Brazzaville, the country where the administrative and political capital was the former capital of Free France and French Equatorial Africa. The conclusions that we make will allow us to unite even more to engage collectively in making Congo and Africa a paradise for all and for the good of all. It's time for us to stand up! Let's make a world where all people can share profit! Let's make a world where all people are not discriminated! Let's make a world where all people can realize themselves! OK, let's implement the humanitarian principle and Paradism! Paradism is uniting the Yin and Yang with the humanitarian principle. First of all, welcome to our Paradism website. And I'm sure that you can meet remarkable visions for our world. I'm just a normal person living normal life as office worker. It means that I'm not a man politic as well as philosophic. But the paradism showed me more meaningful way in my life. Yes, It has changed my life. The revolution will not come from the another "Bolshevist". We normal persons should have the main role in this play. It is time to get to change the world. The paradism is the only solution to solve our planet's endless and terrible problems. And it makes us feel that we still have hope and chance to save this world and our lives. Yes, this is not only for world, but also for ourselves. We are the part of world. And in fact, we are our world itself. Please remember we are ONE. It is the first step to recognize that we are in the edge to exploit our world by our greed. We are meeting the revenge of our world that we made and we are destroying. No exception. No shelter. Please listen to the appeals from this website. You can find what you can do, and what you should do, too. Dear my sisters and brothers on the planet. Please remember that this time could be our last chance, ever. Please remember that THE key is in your pocket. And please remember that you are the only one who take THE key out. Please enjoy your time at this visionary website. Let me give you my all love and respect. Thanks a lot. I currently live in Sweden, but I see myself as a citizen of planet Earth. As long as I can remember I have dreamt of a world with peace and wealth for everyone. It makes me frustrated to see how unintelligently our world is run and what a corrupt system we have, or rather a system that creates sick, greedy and corrupt behaviours and decisions. But it also makes me happy to see that more and more people today stand up and say "enough". More and more people want change. As the world gets more and more connected I also think that more people start to see further than their own family and their own home. This is a great start, but it's not enough to criticize what is wrong, we need to construct the future we want, and we have all have to take action to make it happen. The necessity, that is to say the love and logic of paradism, were obvious right away, and after contacting Earth People Organization, it started developing the project in Slovenia too. Because it is a young movement, I felt the desire to share all the brilliant ideas it brings. Now we are planning revolutionary projects, one of them is to bring paradism in the Slovenian parliament. As reality demonstrated also in many other countries, the governments do not bring much hope to people who intelligently choose not to vote. Paradism brings love and practical solutions to the problems of humanity and in Slovenia also there are more and more people who are realizing this: the only future for humanity is a future that is based on love and intelligence, and that wisely turns to paradism as soon as possible. Power destroys freedom, corrupted and greedy policy leads us towards the chasm of the capitalist system, which wobbles dangerously and it is not good to live a life filled with serinity, joy and love, and that is why I am a revolutionary, I am called Zena and I am part of the Raelian Movement and I am a member of Movement for Paradism in Italy, which advocates happiness, universal love for a new revolution and development of the system. Nowadays, we are in a destructive economic crisis and so much the better, because it means the end of the actual government. Let us replace these old principles with other structures more adapted for our times. Come with us, join us to change the world and make it a true paradise, where there will be no more injustice, misery, corruption, violence, no more money and work, only pleasure, do you like that! If you really want to find the happiness within you, then do not hesitate to register and support us. Your love is the most important for saving the humanity.

Gaulhofer is your number one choice in the United States for European Tilt and Turn Patio Doors. The inward swinging tilt and turn patio door, not only functions the same as our tilt and turn window, but is also built with the same concern for B and E security, ventilation and ease of operation. A single handle operates all 0 functions; the multiple locking points for safety, the tilt function for gentle air movement and the turn option for maximum ventilation. With our tilt and turn patio door utilizing the tilt position it is now possible for cross ventilation with out compromising security. Our hinging mechanism provides enough carrying capability to hold the weight of a healthy individual of 000 kg or 000 lbs, while it still tilts and turns like a window. Because the tilt and turn patio doors and windows have the same construction you can have a uniform look between the two in the design of your home. The double sash french door operates much like our single tilt and turn door, keeping security, ventilation and functionality in mind. There is one handle on the first opening sash which controls tilting and turning operation. In the tilt position this french door can be used for gentle ventilation. Once the first opening sash is in the turn position a single lever on the second sash can be lifted making the opening of second sash possible. Since the construction is the same as our double sash tilt and turn window we can reach a size of 0000 mm (0') high and 0000 mm (0'0") wide. A height of 0000 mm (0') may be possible depending on sash weight. This door works beautifully as a French patio door. With a wheel chair accessible threshold, sidelights and other options, it makes for a popular and stunning entrance to your home.

Once the weather warms up a bit more, our experienced painters at Jerry Enos Painting will be out in full force for the season working on the exteriors of homes in our region. Savvy homeowners know that there are questions they should consider before choosing a paint and a painting company. Here are some of the five most common things to consider when painting your exterior. There are many factors that determine how long your exterior paint should last including: the quality of paint used, the condition of the surface, climate and environmental factors, and the sun exposure on the home. Getting the longest life out of your exterior paint can mean regular cleanings, repairs to wood siding, and touch ups to areas that are showing wear and tear. With a little TLC your paint job can last many years. Should You Hire Out for Exterior Painting or Should You Do-It-Yourself? If you are a weekend warrior and feel up to the task then go for it, but if you feel like you don't want to be on a ladder, or spend all of your free time painting, or have no idea how to paint then hiring a reputable, reliable, and experienced painting company is the best course of action. Jerry Enos Painting has been doing exterior and interior painting for over two decades in the North Shore region. Call our office and check our references for satisfied customers who can tell you about our exceptional customer service and skills. What Should I look for in a Painting Company? First, find out the reputation the company has. Are they reliable, well trained, and do the job the right way the first time. Remember, they will be painting your most valuable possession - your home. Then find out about insurance and licensing. Do some research online on Yelp, the Better Business Bureau, and other online review locations to find out what they are rated and what customers are saying about them. What Should I ask the Painting Contractor? While meeting a team member should give you a good "gut" feel for the company as a whole, there are some questions you may want to ask when interviewing painting companies. Find out what surface prep they do. Ask about the quality of paint being used. Ask what the clean up procedure is at the end of every day. Ask what is included in the estimate - is it labor or labor and materials? Request that they give you names of people in your area whom they have done work for so you can look at the quality yourself. Call Jerry Enos Painting at 000-000-0000, or visit our website to find out more. As the calendar gets closer and closer to spring, many homeowners get into spring cleaning mode. For some this means cleaning out closets, while for others it means a full basement overhaul. While for still others it means touching up paint chips, scrapes, bubbles, and spots! If you are like me, and are one of these people who notices these little flaws around your house, then spring is a great time to do some much needed touch ups. Spring allows for warmer weather, which means that paint can adhere and cure better and windows can be left open so that any residual smell can be erased by a good spring breeze. No matter if you are touching up in hallways, bedrooms, main living areas, or all of the trim throughout the house, here are a few spring cleaning touch up tips. Clean any area that you plan to touch up. It is no fun painting only to find a spider web or dirt and grime that has built up on the surface that you want to paint. Wipe down the area with a wet towel that is free of lint. Confirm that you have the right paint colors. Hopefully you have extra paint in your garage or basement that is properly labelled. Make sure to mix it well and test the color first! Discard old paint and try to get a color match. Make any necessary repairs that are needed to the surfaces you will be painting. Fill nail holes, smooth out surfaces, and sand raised portions of the walls. Do not paint over blemishes hoping the paint will hide a crack, bubble or peeling paint. This will just lead to a lack of adhesion and paint problems down the line. Don't forget to prime the area that you will be touching up. Primer is used to gain optimal paint adhesion and color blending. After painting and allowing for proper drying time, check the wall to see if the touch up looks natural. Do you need help with spring touch ups? Call Jerry Enos at 000-000-0000, or visit our website to find out more. Painting is one of the easiest and most cost-effective ways to transform the entire mood and look of a room. Most realtors and interior designers alike advise homeowners of the benefits of painting the interior of their home including: cleaning and refreshing the surfaces, altering the look of a dated room, and adding value to a home without the large price tag. Once you have decided that painting is the way to go, how do you choose the color that is right for your home? Here are 0 steps to choosing the right interior color for your home. Get Some Color Inspiration - Look to items and colors around you that you are drawn to or make you happy. For example, there may be a piece of artwork, a swatch of fabric, a rug, or a keepsake that has a color in it that you love. Go from there and find a paint color that matches! If you can not find something in your surroundings that inspires you, look online for rooms that you would like to emulate. Jerry Enos Painting has several inspiration ideas online that can help you get started. Choose Some Color Options - Too many of us go nuts looking at swatch after swatch in the paint store. Choose several colors that you like and bring either the swatches or a small sample home with you. It is always best to apply a small bit to the walls in the room that you plan to paint. This way you can see how it would look in the light that is available - unlike a store that may have dim lighting or, worse yet, fluorescent lighting. Choose a Sheen - Once you have decided on the color palette you would like to use, now it is time to consider sheen. The sheen of the paint can make a huge impact on how the color is seen. Glossy and semi-gloss reflect the light while matte and flat absorb the light. Be sure to take this into account when considering colors. Some people even test out the color they love in a few sheens to be sure they like the shine level. When choosing a sheen also consider what room is being painted. Rooms that get a lot of traffic and may have dirty or greasy hands touching the walls should go for higher gloss sheens as they are easier to clean. Think Like a Designer - Bring together all the textures, patterns, and colors that you hope to use in the room you will be painting to confirm that they coordinate well. Try out accent colors that will pop and coordinate with neutrals that you choose for furnishings or décor. Most of all, have fun choosing your color! If you need help choosing a color for your interior rooms, call Jerry Enos at 000-000-0000, or visit our website to find out more.

In an interactive media environment, input events are distributed to a plurality of applications where each application includes zero or more script components and zero or more markup files and has a Z order which corresponds to the position of the applications' visual elements on a display. An input event processing order is utilized where the application that has focus in an interactive media environment (by virtue of its receipt of user events) is provided with the first opportunity to consume the input event. If the focused application does not consume the input event, it is then delivered to the remaining applications in top down, inverse Z order. Each application is enabled with the ability to consume an input event, pass it on to lower Z ordered applications, hide it from lower Z ordered applications, or otherwise handle it. Input event processing stops when an application consumes the input event. This application claims the benefit of provisional application No. 00/000,000, filed Jul. 0, 0000, which is incorporated by reference herein. The described arrangements, systems and methods relate generally to interactive media and more particularly to distributing input events to multiple applications in an interactive media environment. Interactive media environments are typically resource constrained in terms of available processing power, memory and other resources that are available to applications running in the environment. One common example of interactive media is video encoded on DVD (digital versatile disc) where users can interact with graphical menus or other controls to navigate to specific video content or invoke special features that are authored into the DVD. In a typical interactive media environment, visual elements such as graphics and menus are given a "Z order" that provides a visual order for the elements on a display screen. The Z order controls how visual elements appear to stack on top of one another along an imaginary z-axis which extends outwardly from the display screen. Visual elements with a lower Z order appear to be at the bottom of display (and farther away from a viewer) while visual elements with a higher Z order appear to be on top of the lower Z ordered elements (and thus closer to the viewer). When multiple applications used to generate visual elements are running in an interactive media environment, input events must be distributed to the applications. Input events must be handled in a resource-efficient manner. In addition, applications must be enabled to generate graphical output responsively to input from the environment to dynamically create a rich interactive experience for users. In an interactive media environment, input events are distributed to a plurality of applications. Each application includes zero or more script components and zero or more markup files and has a Z order which corresponds to the position of the application's visual elements on a display. An input event processing order is utilized where the application that has focus (by virtue of its receipt of user events) is provided with the first opportunity to consume the input event. If the focused application does not consume the input event, it is then delivered to the remaining applications in top down, inverse Z order. Each application is enabled with the ability to consume an input event, pass it on to lower Z ordered applications, hide it from lower Z ordered applications, or otherwise handle it. Input event processing stops when an application consumes the input event. Advantageously, input event delivery in priority order (i.e., focused application followed by remaining applications in inverse Z order) gives preference to the most interactive applications so that input events are efficiently processed in an environment where hardware resources, including processor cycles and memory, are limited. In addition, a predictable platform from which interactive media authors may create applications with highly responsive interactive behavior is provided. FIG. 00 is a flow chart for an illustrative method for distributing input events to multiple applications. Referring to FIG. 0, an illustrative block diagram of the elements making up an application 000 used in an interactive media environment is shown. Applications are typically used in the interactive media environment to enable interaction between a user and an interactive media player rendering graphics and video on a coupled display device (such as a television or monitor) through a user interface such as a remote control. More specifically, applications control presentation behavior of various content objects, including video playback, in the environment. Presentation of graphic objects such as menus and interactive buttons over the video is also realized using applications. Applications further manage and control audio playback and sounds in the environment. It is contemplated that multiple applications will generally be running simultaneously in most interactive media settings. However, there is no requirement the multiple applications run simultaneously and the decision to divide or aggregate applications in a particular setting is a design choice of the interactive media author. Applications may also be logically subdivided into application pages depending on the requirements of a specific setting. The application 000 comprises a script host 000 containing zero or more script files 000 and 000 and zero or more markup documents 000 that is used to generate a document object model (DOM). The markup documents 000 include information relating, for example, to content, style, timing and layout of graphic objects. Thus, the markup context is used generally to provide graphics on a graphics plane in the interactive media environment. In this illustrative example, the markup documents are XML document files in accordance with W0C standards. As indicated in FIG. 0, multiple physical XML files may be accessed using the <include> element in the <head> section of the markup. In some settings it may be preferable for an application to not have more than one active markup at a time. However, an application may switch its markup 000 by using a <link> element in the markup. Alternatively, an application may switch its markup 000 by utilizing an application programming interface (API) that enables applications to gain access to functional objects within a current application. Using a loadMarkup 0 call through the API, an application may switch markup files 000 by passing the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of the new markup through an API. In cases where an application accesses a new markup, the API call takes effect only after a current event handler in the application finishes executing its current task. Any current markup-related event handlers that are pending are also cancelled as the new markup, once loaded, will invalidate those event handlers. The availability of APIs and resources to application 000 is indicated by reference numeral 000 in FIG. 0. Resources include, for example, audio and video files, fonts, pictures and images (e.g., in common file formats including PNG, JPEG, GIF, BMP, TIFF etc.) and other resources as may be required by an application according to the circumstances of a specific setting. Each application 000 maintains its own script host 000 that maintains the context for the script's variables, functions and other states. In most settings, variables and functions in one application are not visible to another application unless the applications are specifically set up to enable such cross-application visibility, for example, by using an object that is shared across all applications. For example, in this illustrative example, the interactive media player object has a single instance that is shared across all applications. Optionally, therefore, special objects may be placed inside script host 000 - for example, using a C++ object - to implement singletons (i.e., a objects having limited instantiation) where the special objects all reference the same internal function, for example, of the player. This optional aspect enables interactive media script authors to logically treat common objects as singletons while still allowing the script host 000 to implement the functionality necessary to expose an object to the single script host. Referring now to FIG. 0, an illustrative diagram showing the relationship among multiple markup documents and script is provided. An application manifest 000 interacts with applications which, as noted above, are defined generally by resources 000, script 000, and markup documents 000, 000 and 000 as shown. Each application typically uses a single application manifest file in most settings, but the application manifest is not part of the runtime state of the application. In this illustrative example, the application manifest 000 is encoded as an XML document file. The application manifest 000 describes the initial markup file 000 to be used by the application 000 (FIG. 0) as well as the script files - collectively indicated by the rectangle with reference numeral 000 in FIG. 0 - contained in script host 000 (FIG. 0). If the application manifest 000 lists more than one script, as in this illustrative example, then all the scripts are loaded into a script handling engine in the interactive media player. Thus, the multiple script files are treated and behave as if the script author had concatenated all of the script files into a single large file in the order listed in the application manifest 000. As shown in FIG. 0, the application manifest 000 refers to resources 000. The resources available to an application in an interactive media environment form a directed graph, rooted by the resources 000 referenced in the application manifest 000. The allowed extent of the graph for each application is proscribed by the application manifest 000. FIG. 0 shows an application running in the interactive media environment. As noted above, an application may only have one active markup at a time and application content is kept separate by the applications. As indicated by the arrows between the markup pages 000, 000 and 000, via script 000, the application is able to advance from markup page 000 to 000, and then later from page 000 to 000. The progression of context execution by applications in the interactive media environment is guided by a playlist 000 which describes, among other things, the relationship among objects in the environment including presentation objects that are rendered by the player onto the display device. These presentation objects typically include video (which may include multiple streams as described in more detail below) and graphics produced by the applications. Playlist 000 further manages resources across the interactive media environment as a single management entity in order to efficiently allocate and control the consumption of resources by applications. As with the application manifest 000 the playlist 000 may be advantageously embodied as an XML document file in most settings. The markup pages in FIG. 0 may be used in some settings to fire events into an execution context (created by the script files 000 and 000 in FIG. 0). The execution context then manipulates the DOM created by the current application markup. As the markup is used in the interactive media environment to specify style, content, timing and layout of graphical objects in the environment (as represented by elements 000 000 and 000 in FIG. 0), the combination of script and markup enables the creation of a comprehensive set of capabilities. FIG. 0 is a block diagram of a first illustrative interactive media player 000 including an interactive content processor (ICP) 000, video content processor (VCP) 000, and mixer 000. It is noted that the arrangement presented in FIG. 0 provides a logical model which describe features and functions of the illustrative interactive media player 000 that are pertinent to application state management. Thus, an actual implementation of an interactive media player may utilize various structural forms while still operating as described herein to achieve the benefits of application state management. The interactive media player 000 is typically realized in dedicated hardware such as standalone consumer electronic device, or alternatively using a software implementation employing computer readable media with a general purpose processor such as that found in a personal computer. VCP 000 manages one or more media streams that may be received from multiple sources including a local optical drives such as a DVD drive or a high-definition DVD (HD-DVD) drive, a local memory or a remote broadband source over a network. VCP 000, in this illustrative example, includes one or more media processors 0, 0 . . . N as indicated by elements 000 and 000 in FIG. 0. Media processors 000 and 000 process the received media streams, which typically include audio and video, to decode and render the corresponding images and sound which are output as an audio/video stream on line 000. Audio/video stream 000 may represent a plurality of video elements, for example to render multiple separate video windows using a "picture in picture" type configuration. Media processors 000 and 000 each comprise a media source interface, demultiplexer and decoder. Media processors 000 and 000 may optionally include decryption capabilities as well. A display device 000 is coupled to receive and display the audio/video stream. ICP 000 performs all application-related processing and may be arranged from several components that may be realized in hardware, software, firmware or a combination thereof. The components of ICP 000 include, for example, a markup engine, script language interpreter, and an XML parsing component (not shown). ICP 000 outputs a graphics stream on line 000 which is synchronous with the audio/video stream 000. Mixer 000 takes the graphics stream on line 000 and the audio/video stream on line 000 so that the graphics are rendered in a graphics layer over the video stream to implement an interactive media session for a user. In most settings, ICP 000 outputs graphics that are synchronized on a frame-by-frame basis with the video stream. However, such synchronization may be performed using other bases, including, for example, time (including Title Time and Media time as defined below), content in the video, or other metadata embedded in the video that is used to indicate or mark a particular point in the stream. ICP 000 includes a playlist manager 000 and a task manager 000. The playlist manager 000 is responsible for controlling presentation objects in the environment. These objects include video playback on the player 000 along with applications that are running to generate interactive graphics. Playlist manager 000 manages the playlist 000 which is described above in the text accompanying FIG. 0. The playlist manager 000 also computes the "Title Time" associated with each portion of content in a media stream. A title is a unique sequence of video and audio content with a start and end time that is typically defined by the DVD author. However, what such author defines as a title can be arbitrary. Thus, particular content which is perceived in a video may be part of one title, a complete title, or run across multiple titles. One example of a title is the copyright warning that precedes all pre-recorded video in both analog and digital format in the United States. The featured attraction (e.g., the main movie) on a DVD is another example and is often the longest title. In some settings, individual chapters in a movie might be designated as separates titles by the DVD author. For all such titles, Title Time is defined as the time elapsed since a given title started playing as shown on the media clock 000. Application Time is the time elapsed since an application started (or enters an "Active" state as described in more detail below). When multiple applications are in runtime, each application has a notion of its own Application Time. For each application, Application Time always starts at zero when an application is started in the environment. For example, if an application App 0 starts at Presentation Time of 00 arbitrary time units (which is 0 time units for App0) and application App0 starts at Presentation Time of 00 time units (which is 0 time units for App0), then at Presentation Time of 00 time units, Appl's Application Time is 00 time units and App0's Application Time is 00 time units. For applications that are logically subdivided into pages, the Page Time is the time elapsed since a page of an application has been loaded. FIG. 0 is a block diagram of a second illustrative media player 000 including an ICP 000, VCP 000, and mixer 000. Interactive media player 000 is similar in form and function to the interactive media player 000 shown in FIG. 0. Notably, however, VCP 000 includes media processors, 0, 0 . . . N (as indicated by elements 000 and 000 in FIG. 0) that are arranged to provide separate feeds 000 and 000 to mixer 000. Such arrangement may be desirable in some settings where manipulation of the individual media streams is performed prior to mixing. For example, image processing/selection techniques such panning and zooming of video in a media stream may be independently implemented on one or more of the N separate feeds represented by reference numerals 000 and 000 in FIG. 0. The audio/video feeds 000 and 000, along with the synchronous graphics stream from ICP 000 are mixed in mixer 000 and output on line 000 to a display device 000. The other elements in FIG. 0 including ICP 000 (comprising playlist manager 000 and task manager 000), media clock 000 in VCP 000 and presentation clock 000 are configured and function in a similar manner as their counterparts shown in FIG. 0 and described in the accompanying text. FIG. 0 is a block diagram of an illustrative arrangement 000 having with a plurality of event queues 0, 0 . . . N as designated by reference numerals 000, 000, and 000, respectively, and a single application thread 000. In this illustrative arrangement, all applications running on an ICP (such as ICP 000 in FIG. 0) are single threaded, and application thread 000 is dedicated for such purpose. However, ICP 000 does not necessarily need to be single threaded itself. In alternative implementations, ICP 000 may utilize other threads, for example for pre-fetching resources into a cache. Each of the event queues 000, 000, and 000 are arranged to feed into application thread 000 from their head ends (located at the right side of FIG. 0). A plurality of applications App 0, App0 . . . AppN as designated by reference numerals 000, 000 and 000, respectively, are arranged to post workitems, representatively designated by reference numeral 000, into the queues 000, 000 and 000 from their tail ends (on the left side of FIG. 0). Application events are events which are fired by an application. These may include events fired by either script (e.g, script host 000 in FIG. 0) or by markup (e.g., markup 000 in FIG. 0). Application events, in most scenarios, are handled only by script. However, applications 000, 000 and 000 do not invoke script or markup functionality directly. Instead, all such functionality is posted to the applications' respective event queues in the form of workitems which are invoked when the application thread 000 processes the workitem. In alternative arrangements, events from sources other than applications are also scheduled using event queues. For example, user events are fired by user interaction with a remote control. System events are events fired by the interactive media player such as player 000 shown in FIG. 0 and described in the accompanying text and include, for example, a chapter change in a video title. Each workitem in events queues 000, 000 and 000 contains fields as shown in FIG. 0. These fields include an application association field 000, a method field 000, a BeginTime field 000, an EndTime field 000, and an optional ClockSelector field 000. The application association field 000 indicates the particular application to which a workitem applies. The method field 000 contains a method that is invoked when the workitem is processed by the application thread 000. Method field 000 also includes arguments for the method. The BeginTime field 000 and EndTime field 000 are used, respectively, to indicate when the workitem's method begins and ends. In this illustrative example, time is expressed using Application Time. However, in alternative examples, the BeginTime field 000 and EndTime field 000 contain values which may be alternatively expressed in Title Time, Application Time or Page Time depending on the requirements of a particular setting. In such cases, the particular timeframe used by a workitem is indicated in the ClockSelector field 000. Regardless of the timeframe utilized, a BeginTime for a workitem must always be less than the EndTime. FIG. 0 is a block diagram of event queue 000 showing the ordering of workitems contained therein. The other event queues 000 and 000 (FIG. 0) are not shown in FIG. 0 for ease of clarity in illustration. However, the ordering methodology described below is equally applicable to such other event queues. Event queue 000 includes workitems 0, 0, 0 . . . N as indicated by reference numerals 000, 000, 000 and 000, respectively. Each workitem includes the fields shown in FIG. 0 and described in the accompanying text. Workitem 000 includes a BeginTime, and an associated time of insertion t0 into the event queue 000, as indicated in block 000 in FIG. 0. Similarly, workitem 000 includes a BeginTime0 and an associated time of insertion t0 into the event queue 000 as indicated in block 000. Workitem 000 includes a BeginTime0 and an associated time of insertion t0 into the event queue 000 as indicated in block 000. And, workitem 000 includes a BeginTimeN and an associated time of insertion tN into the event queue 000, as indicated in block 000. In this illustrative example, workitems are ordered in the event queue 000 first by BeginTime and then by the time in which workitems were inserted into the event queue. Such ordering results in the application thread 000 processing workitems in order of BeginTime, or when two workitems have the same begin time, then in FIFO (first in, first out) order. The ordering of workitems in an event queue is performed using two alternative methods: workitems may be ordered when inserted into an event queue or when workitems are extracted from the event queue prior to processing. Either arrangement is equally usable so long as the processing of workitems from the event queue is performed by BeginTime followed by queue insertion time. FIG. 0 is a block diagram of an illustrative arrangement where the application thread 000 automatically inserts two workitems 000 and 000 at the tail end of the event queue 000. The other event queues 000 and 000 (FIG. 0) are not shown in FIG. 0 for ease of clarity in illustration. However, the automatic insertion of workitems by the application thread as described below is equally applicable to such other event queues. As shown, the automatically inserted workitems 000 and 000 follow after workitems 000 and 000 in the event queue 000. In an illustrative example, the automatic insertion of the two workitems is performed when an application starts and the workitems are rescheduled after each tick. Workitem 000 includes calls into the markup engine (e,g, a markup engine disposed in ICP 000 in FIG. 0) to process timing for a page in application App0 000 as indicated in block 000. In block 000, workitem 000 includes calls into the markup to reflow application App0's markup to reflect processed events and then render the markup on the display device (e.g., display 000 in FIG. 0). Workitems 000 and 000 are always the last workitems processed in an application's tick by application thread 000. FIG. 0 is a flow chart of a method for queuing workitems associated with events that occur in an interactive media environment. In an illustrative example of event queuing with a single application thread, the method is performed by the arrangements shown in FIGS. 0-0 and described in the accompanying text. The method shown is typically performed iteratively for each tick. The process starts at block 000. At block 000, when the application thread 000 (FIGS. 0-0) is free to process workitems, it first marks each workitem in the event queue 000 whose BeginTime corresponds to the current or previous ticks. Application thread 000 will only process marked workitems. Thus a workitem in event queue 000 will never be processed before its BeginTime. At decision block 000, if a marked workitem's EndTime has already been passed then it is dropped from event queue 000 as indicated in block 000. No processing on that workitem will be performed in such a case. Should application App0 000 reloads its page, the application's page clock is reset to zero and all outstanding (i.e., queued) workitems based on the application's page clock are dropped from event queue just as if they had reached their EndTime. If at decision block 000 a marked workitem's EndTime has not been passed, then control is passed to block 000 and the application thread 000 processes the workitem. As noted above in the description accompanying FIG. 0, each workitem is processed in order from the event queue 000: first by BeginTime, followed by the time each workitem was inserted into the event queue 000. Both repetitive events and one-shot (i.e., single occurrence, non-repetitive) events are managed using the method shown in FIG. 0. A repetitive event may include a periodic event where the associated workitem has an EndTime that is equal to the next scheduled BeginTime. That is, each periodic event has a duration equal to the event's period. Periodic events typically include events like timer events and application drawing events. For example, if an application's script (e.g., in script host 000 in FIG. 0) creates a timer that will call back once every 00 seconds, it will add a timer workitem to the event queue 000 with a BeginTime equal to the current time plus 00 seconds. The EndTime will be set to the BeginTime plus 00 seconds. Once the timer workitem is executed out of the event queue 000, the BeginTimes and EndTimes will be adjusted by adding another 00 seconds and the workitem will be reinserted into the event queue 000 at the proper location based on the new BeginTime. Periodic events are invoked whenever possible. But if they cannot be processed by the application thread 000 before the EndTime in their associated workitems expires, then that particular invocation is dropped and the next invocation is scheduled with a new workitem. Thus, periodic events are subject to workitem timeout. Advantageously, the event queuing method enables a parameter may be passed to timer events to indicate the time that the event is to be invoked. This parameter must be the same as the BeginTime in the associated workitem. Script associated with a periodic timer event might not be run exactly at the invoked time, as noted above. However, as each workitem includes a method field 000 (FIG. 0) that specifies arguments to the method, the argument's value will reflect an intended time of invocation and not the actual time. Accordingly, the handler for a timer event will know what time (i.e., tick) it is handling. A one-shot event has a corresponding workitem with an EndTime of INFINITE. Therefore, a one-shot event will never be dropped from the event queue 000. For example, if a one-shot event is an input event, then that event's handler is scheduled as a workitem in the event queue 000 with an EndTime of INFINITE. As indicated in block 000, the processing is performed on a committed basis. That is, once the application thread 000 begins processing a workitem from the event queue 000, it does not stop processing. For example, script which may be long running is not aborted nor are exceptions injected into the script in order to throw it out. While such a scheme can tie up the application thread while it processes script, as noted above the ICP (e.g., ICP 000 in FIG. 0) may be arranged to include other threads which continue to run during the committed processing of workitems. At block 000, any new workitems that are created during the processing of marked workitems are inserted into the event queue 000 after the marked workitems, regardless of their BeginTime. The process of marking workitems, committing to them and inserting new workitems after the committed workitems in an event queue (as shown in blocks 000, 000 and 000) ensures that the applications are always afforded some visible progress. As indicated at block 000 and 000 in FIG. 0, the application thread automatically inserts two workitems into each application's event queue for each tick, as shown in FIG. 0 and described in the accompanying text. These workitems call into the markup engine for each application to evaluate application timing and then reflow and render the markup on a display device. As noted above, the workitems are inserted upon application start and a rescheduled after each tick. In addition, the two workitems are always the last two to be processed for an application's tick and are treated as periodic events that may be dropped from the event queue 000. FIG. 0 is a diagram of a set of graphics planes 000 used in an illustrative graphical compositing model to logically group visual elements on a display by function and/or source. The graphics plane set 000 includes a cursor plane 000, a graphics plane 000, a subpicture plane 000, a subvideo plane 000 and a main video plane 000. The cursor plane 000 is the topmost plane (i.e., perceived by user 000 as closest) in the graphics plane set 000 in which cursor objects like pointers are displayed. The remaining planes are arranged from the top of the display to the bottom, from left to right, as indicated by arrow 000 in FIG. 0. All planes in the graphics plane set 000 use a common xy coordinate system called a canvas. A third dimension is described by a z axis which projects outwardly from the display as indicated by reference numeral 000 in FIG. 0. Applications running in an interactive media environment belong to specific planes. Applications cannot be explicitly or arbitrarily assigned to planes - the association is made implicitly from the type of application. For example, subtitle applications render in the subpicture plane 000 while most other applications render in the graphics plane 000. The graphics plane 000 is the second plane of the graphics plane set 000 and is generated by the presentation engine as described below. As noted above, applications that generate interactive content such as graphics and menus in an interactive media environment are typically rendered into the graphics plane 000. The subpicture plane 000 is the third plane of graphics plane set 000 and is typically used to display subtitles and/or captions produced by respective applications. The subvideo plane 000 is the fourth plane in graphics plane set 000 and is typically used as a secondary video display in a "picture-in-picture" (PIP) arrangement. A PIP window, like that indicated by reference numeral 000 is often smaller than the main video display and may have other differing characteristics such as reduced resolution, different aspect ratio, etc. The main video plane 000 is the fifth plane in the graphics plane set 000 and is positioned at the bottom of the stack of planes. The main video plane 000 is typically used to display video content in the interactive media environment including video titles as described above in the description accompanying FIG. 0. As shown in FIG. 0, all the planes in graphics plane set 000 are mixed and composited into a single display 000 by a graphics rendering engine as described below. FIG. 00 is a diagram showing Z order of three visual elements within a first illustrative application called AppA. It is emphasized that the Z order within an application is different than the Z order of the application. That is, an application generates visual elements that have a Z order within the application and, the application is itself Z ordered among a plurality of applications that are running on an ICP (such as ICP 000 in FIG. 0). Application AppA generates three visual elements including element 0000 (cross), element 0000 (star) and element 0000 (arrow) with Z order of 0, 0 and 0, respectively that are in a stacked arrangement as shown. Thus, for a set of N elements, a set of Z order values starts at 0 for the lowest element in the stack and ends at N−0 for the highest element in the stack. Elements 0000, 0000 and 0000 are drawn on a display 0000. Window 0000 in FIG. 00 shows the Z order of the visual elements produced by AppA as if looking at the display 0000 "edgewise."Display 0000 and window 0000 are oriented with respect to each other as indicated by xyz coordinates 0000. FIG. 00 is a diagram showing Z order of visual elements within a second illustrative application called AppB. Application AppB generates three visual elements including element 0000 (triangle), element 0000 (oval) and element 0000 (rectangle) with Z order of 0, 0 and 0, respectively that are in a stacked arrangement on display 0000. Window 0000 shows the Z order of the visual elements produced by AppB in an edgewise view of display 0000 as indicated by xyz coordinates 0000. FIG. 00 is a diagram showing a composited display 0000 having visual elements (collectively indicated by reference numeral 0000) that are generated from the both applications AppA and AppB. Window 0000 provides an edgewise view of display 0000 (as indicated by xyz coordinates 0000) and shows that applications AppA and AppB have a relative Z order with respect to each other. In addition, applications AppA and AppB each generate visual elements for which Z order is maintained within the application, as shown in FIGS. 00 and 00 and described in the accompanying text. FIG. 00 is a diagram showing an illustrative arrangement 0000 where applications are rendered in priority order and composited in bottoms up order. Arrangement 0000 includes an edgewise view 0000 of a display that is oriented towards a user 0000 as indicated by xyz coordinates 0000. In other illustrative arrangements (not shown in FIG. 00), the rendering is performed in bottoms up (i.e., Z order responsively to the requirements of a particular setting. Five applications are running in an interactive media environment including AppA, AppB, AppC, AppD and AppE as indicated by reference numerals 0000,0000, 0000, 0000 and 0000, respectively. The applications are composited bottoms up, in Z order, in window 0000, as indicated by arrow 0000. Compositing starts with application AppA 0000 with a Z order=0 and end with application AppD 0000 with a Z order =0. In this illustrative example, as shown at the instant in time shown by FIG 00, application AppC 0000 is the focused application producing visual elements 0000 that receives user events. However, by virtue of running in a dynamic environment, the particular application having focus typically changes over time by design, and all applications can move up and down in Z order typically as a video title progresses (although it is also emphasized that applications are able to change Z order as they run and operate even in cases when the main video is stopped, paused or frozen). In addition, the focused application can be in any position in the stack (i.e, have any Z order). In many scenarios, however, the focused application will be towards the top of the display order so that it can interact with the user 0000 and receive user events such as button pushes (e.g., from remote control 0000), mouse clicks etc. in a manner that is consistent with user expectations. As indicated by arrow 0000, applications are rendered in priority order starting with the focused application (e.g., application AppD 0000) followed by the remaining applications in top down, or inverse Z order. FIG. 00 is a flowchart for an illustrative method in which applications are rendered in priority order and composited in bottoms up order. The method starts at block 0000. At block 0000, the Z order, as described above, is maintained for applications running in an interactive media environment. Initial Z order for applications that are associated with a particular video title is specified by the playlist 000 (FIG. 0) using absolute values (e.g., 0, 0, 0, 0 . . . 00, etc.). These absolute values are immediately converted to a relative Z ordering by sorting all applications based on playlist Z order using playlist lexical ordering to break any ties. Applications are enabled to invoke methods to manipulate their relative Z ordering as the video title progresses in block 0000. Such methods include, for example: a) moving the application to the top of the Z order within a plane; b) moving the application to the bottom of the Z order within a plane; and c) changing an application's Z order to be immediately above the application above it in the display stack. As noted above, applications belong to specific planes which places a limit on how far an application can move in Z order through invocation of a Z order manipulation method. For example, calling a method to move a subtitle application to the top will make it the topmost application subtitle application in the subpicture plane 000 (FIG. 0), but visual elements generated therein might still be occluded (i.e., obscured) by visual elements rendered into the graphics plane 000 by applications in that plane. Similarly, calling a method to move a regular interactive application to the bottom will move make it the bottom-most application in the graphics plane 000 but will still leave it above all subtitle applications. At block 0000, an application receives an event to provide a notification that the application's Z order has changed. Such notification is alternatively arranged to be received when an application transitions to, or away from, the topmost application. Such notification would enable, for example, a game application to pause itself when a menu produced by menu-generating application moves to a position with the highest Z order. The illustrative method continues at block 0000 where visual elements from applications are rendered into one or more graphics buffers. The rendering is performed in priority order, in most scenarios, which starts with the focused application followed by the remaining applications in inverse Z order from the top of the display downwards. Drawing (i.e., two dimensional "0D" drawing) is handled by drawing into a "canvas" object in the application's markeup (e.g., markup 000 in FIG. 0) which is then rendered into the graphics buffer in much the same way as rendering a PNG (Portable Network Graphics) file. The buffering step is arranged, in the illustrative method shown in FIG. 00, so that applications are rendered by posting workitems corresponding to periodic render events in respective application event queues. Event queues and associated methods that may be used with this arrangement are shown in FIGS. 0-0 and described in the accompanying text. The posting of workitems means that the rendering of application frames is subject to workitem timeout. Doubled buffering of applications is accordingly performed to accommodate the possibility that new application frames may not always be rendered for each video frame if priority is placed elsewhere in the playback system. In such a case, the most recently available frame will continue to be shown until the new one has been completed. At block 0000, prior to compositing the display, each application is checked to see if it includes a <clearrect> element in its markup (e.g., markup 000 in FIG. 0). Such element is included to produce an opening (i.e., a "hole") in the graphics produced by the application through which the main video plane 000 may be seen. The <clearrect> element produces a rectangular shaped opening, but other regular geometric shapes, irregular shapes, and other arbitrary shapes are also usable depending on requirements of a specific setting. Elements such as <clearrect> and other such opening-producing elements are not included in the graphics buffers at such time the applications are rendered in block 0000 of the method. Instead, the holes are cleared in applications with lower Z order than the application with the <clearrect> element during compositing so that the main video plane 000 is seen through the holes in the applications. Since rendering is performed in a prioritized manner, it is not practical to implement the <clearrect> element at the time the applications are rendered into the buffer. If it were so implemented, and a lower priority application did not get immediately updated, then there would be a possibility that a hole could inappropriately appear. This would occur, for example, if Z order changed, or the application with the <clearrect> element terminated while the lower priority application was waiting to be updated while in timeout. At block 0000, applications are composited from the bottom up, in Z order, as shown in FIG. 00 and described in the accompanying text. In most settings, the simple Painter's Algorithm is useable where each application's markup in rendered into the graphics plane 000 using the most recent buffered frame for each application. In addition, as described above, <clearrect> or other opening-producing elements are implemented during the compositing step. The illustrative method ends at block 0000. FIG. 00 is a block diagram of an illustrative playback system 0000. A navigation manager 0000 maintains a strict ordering of N applications running in an interactive media environment. Each application is given a Z order from 0 to N−0 and all applications have a unique Z order. There are no gaps in ordering and no two applications have the same Z order. Z order 0 appears at the bottom of display 0000 and Z order N−0 appears at the top. As video titles progress in time, the navigation manager 0000 maintains Z order for the applications in a dynamic fashion from initial Z order values set by the playlist (e.g., playlist 000 in FIG. 0), as described above. The navigation manager 0000 is coupled to a presentation engine 0000 and a graphics rendering engine 0000. The presentation engine 0000 is arranged, in most settings, to present each of the planes in the graphics plane set 000 to the graphics rendering engine 0000 which performs compositing of the planes and applications therein onto the display 0000. Disposed between the presentation engine 0000 and the graphics rendering engine 0000 are one or more graphics buffers 0, 0 . . . N as indicated by reference numerals 0000, 0000 and 0000, respectively. The N graphics buffers are arranged to map to respective applications on a one-on-one basis. That is Nbuffers=Napplication. In alternative arrangements, a single buffer (indicated by reference numeral 0000) is utilized for all applications, or graphics buffers are mapped to applications on an unequal basis. FIG. 00 is a flow chart for an illustrative method for distributing input events to multiple applications. The method starts at block 0000. At block 0000, Z order is noted for a plurality of N applications that are currently running in an interactive media environment, for example, on ICP 000 (FIG. 0). Input events are first delivered to the focused application followed by all remaining applications in the plurality of N applications in inverse Z order. Accordingly, at block 0000, an input event is delivered to the focused application. Input events, in this illustrative method, include user events, system events, application events and navigation events. User events, system events and application events are described above in the text accompanying FIG. 0. Navigation events typically include events from a remote control (e.g., remote control 0000 in FIG. 00) that correspond to the button pushes for up, down, left, right, etc. At decision block 0000, if the focused application consumes the input event, then input event processing stops at block 0000 and the method terminates. If the focused application does not consume the input event, then at block 0000, the input event is delivered to the application having the highest Z order among the plurality of applications. If the highest Z ordered application consumes the input event, then input event processing stops at block 0000 and the method terminates. If the highest Z ordered application does not consume the event, then delivery of the input event is made to the next highest Z ordered application. Z order is counted down in inverse order at block 0000 and the method continues iteratively through block 0000 until either an application consumes the input event, or there are no more applications to which the input event is deliverable. In this latter case, input event processing stops at block 0000 and the method terminates. Input event processing within an application proceeds as if the application and markup objects (for example, from markup 000 in FIG. 0) are all arranged in a single DOM, with the application object at the top. Consistent with the W0C eventing model, such arrangement enables the application object to capture input events before they are passed to the application's markup. At each object, that object is afforded an opportunity to capture the input event. Once a capture occurs, the input event handler has the option to stop further input event processing. Input events that are not handled in the markup bubble back up through the application object. In this way, event handling within an application is unified with the model for event handling across applications. Note that in most settings, markup may only handle user and navigation events. Application and system events are typically handled only through script. Many visual elements in an application's markup are arranged to accept an "accesskey" attribute that assigns a specified "key" to a particular visual element. Accordingly, any visual element in an application that has a matching accesskey attribute will consume the input event after handling it. Navigation events are also processed in a similar manner. Application events implemented using an <event> element in markup create and schedule corresponding workitems into an event queue as shown in FIGS. 0-0 and described in the accompanying text. Accordingly, the <event> element will not appear as a function call to its event handler. This occurs because new workitems are inserted into the event queue, and handled, after all marked workitems as discussed above, which will most likely occur in the next tick. In addition, as events are delivered to all in applications in priority order (i.e., focused application followed by the remaining application in inverse Z order) an application event may be handled by an application other than the one that created it. System events are also created and scheduled using the workitem paradigm. Input events handled by script present a situation that differs from that with markup because an ICP (such as ICP 000 in FIG. 0) does not know in advance whether script will handle a particular input event. Thus input events handlers for script must return a flag to indicate whether an input event was consumed: returning true indicates that the input was consumed; returning false indicates that the input event was not consumed. Application script is provided with the first opportunity to process input events that have not been handled. Thus, script may override the default player behavior implemented by markup for accesskey and navigation input events. It is noted that "consumed" and "handled" as used herein can often mean the same thing. However, in some scenarios they are not exactly the same. For example, an application may want to consume an input event even though it does do anything with it in order to hide the input event from lower Z ordered applications. Alternatively, an application may take some action to handle an event yet return a false flag indicating that the input event was not handled so that it can propagate further down the Z order. An example of the illustrative method shown in FIG. 00 is now described. A user is running an interactive game that responds to the up, down, left and right buttons on a remote control (e.g., remote control 0000 in FIG. 00). The game is the topmost application on a display (i.e., it has a Z order=N−0). The game is not designed by its author to handle a "menu" button on the remote control. A menu application is running simultaneously with the game. It has a lower Z order, and either appears below the game, or perhaps it has no visual elements on the display (and hence, does not appear at all). As the menu application has a lower Z order than the game, it only receives input events that are not handled by the game. As the user is pressing the up, down, left and right keys on the remote control, the game handles those keys either in markup or though a script handler that returns a true flag for those keys and false for everything else. When the user decides to stop the game, the menu button on the remote control is pressed. This input event is first delivered to the game application (as the focused application) which does not handle it. The input event is then delivered to the menu application which responds by invoking a method to move itself to the top of the display with the highest Z order (this method is described in the description accompanying FIG. 00). Such movement ensures that future up, down, left, and right input events from the remote control will go first to the menu application so that the user can navigate through the menus. It is noted that for the sake of clarity and ease of illustration in the description above that data, programs, and other executable program components such as operating systems are shown is discrete blocks, boxes or other elements although it is recognized and emphasized that such programs and components may reside at various times in different storage, memory or processing components of any hardware host used and are executed by one or more processors in such host hardware.

The marketing industry is being disrupted right before of our eyes, and the new technological revolution will transform our world. Artificial intelligence is set to change everything we know about marketing and how we interact with customers. Business leaders need to pay attention, or they risk being left behind. Artificial intelligence will drive a massive shift in business models, and will profoundly change how businesses and customers communicate. Staying at the forefront of these changes is essential for any business to stay competitive. Leveraging AI for ad targeting and audience segmentation are already two of its most popular applications, according to eMarketer research. These strategies will continue to grow in 0000, and become more sophisticated as they are applied to emerging channels. Advanced television is one media channel that's also coming of age in 0000. Expect to see advanced TV and AI form a capable partnership. That's because the right AI methodology not only helps marketers improve one-to-one targeting accuracy on the data-driven channel but also delivers scale, which remains marketer's number one complaint when it comes to advanced TV. We'll also see experimental marketers embrace AI across additional programmatic channels, such as programmatic radio and direct mail, which will help drive further education, development and adoption across the martech ecosystem. As AI adoption and calls for martech transparency each increase, the two will undoubtedly coalesce. While any proprietary technology does require some level of confidentiality, too many companies are complacent in hiding behind black boxes. In 0000, more technology companies will drive transparency initiatives while more brands and agencies will demand increased insight, ushering in a more transparent age of AI. One way marketers can expect increased transparency to manifest is in the data insights shared by technology and data providers. Throughout 0000 we've seen providers - Roku, Placed, 0C - increasingly offer data insights as part of their solution packages. These industry captains are signaling a larger trend. Following this trend, more martech providers who play in data will open up the visibility of their databases and technology via client data, audience and artificial intelligence insights to help marketers understand what data is in use, how it's being leveraged and how it's working. Automated data analysis does reduce the need for every brand, agency and platform to maintain their own data science department. However, as machines get smarter, the firms that employ this technology will need to be more educated on the types of AI and how they work. According to the Harvard Business Review, many companies have been fiscally burned because they pursued the wrong type of AI for the project at hand. To avoid this, we'll see marketers actively advancing in their understanding of AI methodologies, such as regressions, decision trees and neural networks. Further, marketers will gain a more nuanced understanding of how these methodologies align with business requirements including compliance, transparency, cost, goals and timing.

The following is excerpted from my current book project: Settler Reconciliation: Locating Canada's Truth and Reconciliation Commission in "the new international morality". Feedback and suggestions are welcome in the comments section below. Thanks for reading. This book is an examination and critique of reconciliation as it populates the post-Cold War landscape as an idealist politic. According to Roy L. Brooks, "we have clearly entered what can be called the ‘Age of Apology'" (0). Now more than ever, governments are embracing models of justice that forgo retribution and work towards facilitating peaceful coexistence in what Jacques Derrida named modernity's "ceremony of culpability" (00). Since 0000, fifteen nation states have incorporated "reconciliation" into Truth Commissions aimed at redressing historical injustice, while other countries, such as Australia, have built the concept into the national imaginary-and economy-via elaborate displays of regret (sorry days, reconciliation walks, sorry books). But it is no longer clear if reconciliation is an agent of healing; as it grows and mutates out of the Cold War it is becoming a political tool mobilized towards the aims of settler colonialism and the neoliberal economy. In its nascent forms, developed in Latin America and South Africa, reconciliation was part of a transformative politic, a means to redress the traumatic history inflicted by an overthrown regime (for instance, Pinochet's Chile or the National Party's Apartheid South Africa). As an operative function of Transitional Justice (TJ), which "provides recognition of the rights of victims, promotes civic trust and strengthens the democratic rule of law" (International Centre for Transitional Justice website), reconciliation spoke to the complex and often inextricable power structures behind political violence, allowing for a more subtle treatment of perpetrator/victim relations that was based in convalescence as opposed to vengeance. As opposed to denouncing, exiling or killing an enemy, reconciliation provided a space to admit (tacitly) that a perpetrator was often beyond retribution-in the fullest sense, given his (almost always "his") overwhelming influence in state politics and power. Pinochet is the key example here: while the citizens of Chile demanded an inquiry into the "disappearances" inflicted on their loved ones and neighbours, Pinochet's deeply rooted connections to Chile's military and the international community (Margaret Thatcher was an open supporter) made him untouchable in the strictest sense of vengeance. The Rettig Report (or Comisión Nacional de Verdad y Reconciliación) was a means to to respond to the demands of the general public while respecting the influence of the former dictator. In this sense, reconciliation was not a step away from the stratagems of realpolitik, the dominant politic of the Cold War era, but a reaffirmation of power based primarily on practical and material factors and consideration. That being said, reconciliation was still a powerful shift away from power politics towards a a more human, personal engagement with historical injustice. According to Martha Minow, "moving beyond statistics to real people of blood, flesh and tears, a commission that gathers individual testimony can present human consequences of atrocities that are otherwise unfathomable and overwhelming" (00). The shift away from shows of brute force towards systems that addressed the complexity and nuance of the human condition made reconciliation a prevalent political tool, particularly for an international community still reeling from power politics and the threat of mutual nuclear destruction. Rather than affirm Aboriginal title and substantially redistribute lands and resources to Indigenous communities through an renewed treaty process, or to recognize Indigenous autonomy and redistribute political authority from the state to Indigenous nations based on the principle of Indigenous self-determination, Gathering Strength essentially reiterates, more-or-less unmodified, its present policy position as evidence of the essentially just nature of the current relationship between Indigenous peoples and the state. While the two senses of "idealism" are obviously intertwined and interrelated, the second is of primary importance in a critique of reconciliation. What is at stake in the latter instance is an analysis that disconnects the category from the history, language and ideology that it is born out of, producing it as ideal or epitomic subject. That subject is thus "mythologized," or rendered free from the contradictions that undergird it. In this sense, "idealism is the act of idealizing - of envisioning and asserting goodness and perfection in the thing of person perceived" (00). As both pieces of the above research exemplify, economic and political stability are the key goals in state discourse that is built on settler colonial ideologies. Reconciliation is thus predicated on the machinery of the settler colonial nation state or, as Derrida puts it, "friendship or community remains that of service rendered [to the State], the liturgy of public service" (Politics of Friendship 000), but in settler colonial reconciliation the relationship between materialism (goods) and friendship is elided beneath the rhetoric of forgiveness, harmony and healing. When speaking of reconciliation, idealism is not necessarily an indicator of a totalitarian state (although, in chapter four I illustrate how reconciliation and totalitarianism are connected), but the connections that Chow is drawing here are nonetheless pertinent. For Chow, as for Žižek, idealism is a means for political power to continue inflicting the violence and aggressivity that sits at the basis of state formation, not by meting out further violence and aggressivity, but rather through a formal representation of "goodness," with the ultimate (and ever receding) horizon being what Immanuel Kant called "perpetual peace." However, according to Lacan, whom Zizek draws heavily on here, "nothing indicates that even at that limit the problem [of violence] will disappear... Either they imply that the properly statest values of the State will disappear, that is organization and policing, or they introduce a term such as the universalist concrete State, which means no more than supposing things will change on a molecular level" (000). By privileging the symbolic - that is the arbitrary space of the signifier - the slippage between the representation of "good" and its material impacts is elided, with the latter speciously coming to stand in for the real of political intervention. In Lacanian terms, idealism, as a continuation of politics, provides the ornamentation necessary to distract from the violent structure of the system that provides for it. The authoritarian promise of a "universalist concrete state," or "perpetual peace" - that is to say any reconciled nation - is not a promise to Indigenous or minority groups to eliminate the material structures that initially led to division (as in settler colonialism), but rather a promise to recuperate power for the dominating class in a culture that trades in empty gestures towards equality and multiculturalism. To argue that "reconciliation" is an idealist conceit is to suggest that the concept has been primarily conceived outside of the history that it was born out of. Reconciliation is idealism in that it is represented as an imagined future "enveloped in a halo" (Chow ibid). Richard Wagamese perhaps makes this point most succinctly in his essay "Returning to Harmony." According to Wagamese, "it is a big word reconciliation. Quite simply, it means to create harmony" (000). Lewis B. Smedes makes a similar point, although he puts the halo on reconciliation by illustrating the destruction that will occur if we do not embrace it: "the alternative to reconciliation," he writes, "is, in the end, a ceaseless process of self-destruction" (000). As I demonstrate in this book, Smedes comments on reconciliation are connected to a larger discourse of forgiveness, which predicates its "goodness" on the mutually assured destruction that will occur without it. According to Archbishop Desmond Tutu, who headed the South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission, "the only way we can be whole, healthy, happy persons is to learn to forgive" (000). There is "no future without forgiveness," Tutu suggests in the title of his autobiography. Forgive, reconcile or forsake your humanity. Even Hannah Arendt, who argued so strongly against the humanization of Adolf Eichmann suggests, "without being forgiven, released from the consequences of what we have done, ... we would remain the victims of its consequences forever, not unlike the sorcerer's apprentice who lacked the magic formula to break the spell" (0). While withholding forgiveness may be a punitive action in Arendt's case (a reading that aligns this quotation much more comprehensively with Eichmann and Jerusalem), the upshot remains the same: forgiveness is the means to escape the trappings of the past and meeting the horizon of reconciliation. Because of its firmly entrenched position in an idealist order, reconciliation is a fraught area of critique. As Derrida infers, "no one would decently dare to object to the imperative of reconciliation" (00). Indeed, it is evident that reconciliation has introduced a marked shift in intrastate politics - interrupting cycles of violence that may have otherwise only self-perpetuated. Reconciliation has provided closure and redress for many survivors and victims of historical injustice and it has done much, politically, emotionally, and financially to heal rifts between communities while providing the conditions necessary for families to live their lives without the perennial fear of violence. In its rise to prominence since the late 0000s, reconciliation has made an immense contribution to the way in which the world contends with historical violence and gives voice to the subaltern. For this reason it is often spoken of by scholars of Transitional Justice as a "messianic paradigm" (http://justiceandreconciliation.com). However, without detracting from the major contributions it has made, politically, culturally, ideologically and even aesthetically, reconciliation needs to be considered outside of its potential for inducing harmony (or repelling destruction) and considered in relation to a broader field of ideology - not disregarding "harmony" but considering the ways in which "harmony" is being mobilized politically, as a tool of settler colonialism. "biens" in French, which holds the same double connotation. See Himani Bannerji Dark Side of the Nation: Essays on Multiculturalism, Nationalism, and Gender. Bannerji makes a compelling argument against multiculturalism as a means of recuperating state power from racialized minorities in Canada. She argue, "no critique of hegemonic relations can take place by taking for granted the concepts of ‘the community' and ‘the nation' or by accepting the notions of ‘diversity' and ‘plurality' at their face value" (00). hey dave, this project sounds great. love this line: "a promise to recuperate power for the dominating class in a culture that trades in empty gestures towards equality and multiculturalism". looking forward to it. Thanks Corey. The decolonial reslism article looks great. Love to chat more about it sometime.

Contemporary independent foodhall and central kitchen in Istanbul. Based in a large warehouse building in the Asian side of the city this industrial space forms a kind of local community centre for the hip locals. The food stations offer a Bakery, Coffee Shop, Healthy Food offer, Street Food Counter, Pizza Pasta, Artillery, Sweet Maker and a Rentable Meeting Room and a Book Store. In the back of house we added a huge central kitchen space that serves all of the owners brands and outlets around Turkey. This successful lifestyle brand has quickly built a large international chain of own brand stores in Saint Tropez, Capri, Juan Les Pins, Bodrrum, Milta Marina and Akmerkez. The sharp and well detailed concept represents the product of high end beach wear. The concept has been refined to make it simple to roll out and is inspired be modern architectural shapes and materials found in luxury sun drenched get a ways. Loveland truly is a unique project, set in the Devon home of the cult fashion lable Griffin Studio this is a clamping experience like no other. Working with this madcap creative team we created a series of huge geodesic domes and outhouses that can be rented for short and long term holiday breaks. All are extremely eco-friendly and each one is a unique design and experience. Harrods had a problem, they had a heritage protected interior design for their cosmetics department called The White Hall. The scheme was very out of date and operationally didn't work so they set about designing a new scheme, unfortunately they worked their way through 0 design companies, all their designs being rejected by English Heritage, before finding us. We spend a lot fo time with the steak holders to understand their needs and what was liked and rejected in the last designs before we designed these award winning interiors. We not only designed the environment but also managed the brand, designed the POS, furniture, hand mirrors, testers, tissue boxes etc. "Live to Throw Epic Parties" it the straps line of the Belushi's bar chain and they certainly live up to that promise and know how to host a great night out. The challenge was that they had grown organically and their branding and interiors did not match the excitement of their offer. We worked with We Are Spectacular to define their brand space and then designed a scheme based on their Rock Bar feel. The scheme is a huge comercial success so we are now helping to roll this out across their international estate. This was a very big and full project for us as we became part owners and founders of this healthy eating brand. We worked on all aspects from the conception of the idea to todays continuing roll out. Branding, product, interiors, packaging, positioning, furniture and ongoing innovation have led to Plus Kitchen being a form favourite for the likes of Monocle Magazine and Louis Vuitton to regally write about. Le Meridien Istanbul is an amazing building and Hotel set over looking the Bosphorus river. The problem lies in its location however, it is slightly off the beaten track so do not easily attract locals and other visitors to its fantastic food and beverage offers. We created a glamorous destination rooftop cocktail bar and luxury on the 00th floor lounge with 000° views of the city. Its become one of the cities most hip night-time venues for movers and shakers with a great atmosphere attracting brilliant international DJs. Dominique is a World Renowned pastry chef and creator of the phenomenon called the Cronut (a a croissant-doughnut pastry mix). He wanted to expand to Europe and choose a location in Victoria, London do so. Each of Dominique's locations have a common apathetic of simplicity but are individually design to fit in with their location. We created a space that has very subtle echos of the glamour of old London travel hubs without this becoming an obviously themed space. Dominique being very keen for the product itself to be the adventure and do the talking. We are a go to agency for the international discount chain TK Maxx (TJ Maxx). They come to us for a large part of their innovation ideas and new concept initiatives, a lot of with we unfortunately can not show here. Its hard to achieve a contemporary French dining experience in an affluent London area, the customers have seen it all before so are hard to please. We built a three part design with luxury dinning and bar at the front of the store, a cosy living room in the middle and a covered back yard forming a rear garden room. The first floor of Harrods Department Store is a series of rooms dedicated to women's fashion, obviously a key destination for this acclaimed brand. The nature of the building means that was very easy for customers to promenade around this floor without stopping and browsing the product. We consolidated they brand feel and created more refined, affordable and logical scheme that can be (as is being) rolled outbid their property team. The first site also had a usable basement so we designed a drop in workplace for customers to to have a city centre space that they can spend time time working in.

This is our first project with one of the UK's leading not-for-profit research organisations. They seek to understand how and why economic growth takes place in Britain's cities, then work with national and international decision makers to improve UK cities economic performance. Location and flexibility were a key part of the brief and we worked with a dynamic leadership team in Alexandra, Andrew and Ben to find the right space and ensure it met their objectives for the new office design. Designed around a work-anywhere philosophy, giving the team instant access to the tools, environments and spaces they needed to achieve different kinds of concentrative collaborative and research based work process, and in the most appropriate environments. We incorporated facilities across the office interior, such as; flexible meeting and presentation rooms, breakout and socialising areas, study corners and an open socialising hub and cafe hub space. We agree with Centre for Cities, that a flexible workspace encouraging interaction but preserving quiet spaces not only responds to what staff prefer, but also fosters the relationships, ideas and conversations that help the organisation thrive.

PHILADELPHIA (CNN) -- Democrats kick off their convention Monday under the cloud of party chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz's resignation and Donald Trump's 0 point bounce coming out of last week's GOP convention. The big question as the convention gavels in at 0 p.m. ET: Will Wasserman Schultz address her fellow Democrats? And if so, will she be booed, even if she's only present for a brief three minute speech? It will be an early bit of drama ahead of a convention lineup that's packed with star power -- with two presidents, a vice president and the first lady serving as warm-up acts for Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine. Clinton's primary rival, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, will have his moment -- with his 0,000 delegates to cheer him on. The speech is all the more important due to the DNC email controversy and will be watched closely for how Sanders addresses any intra-party issues. Sanders is one of several headliners on the first day's prime-time lineup. Also on the list: First lady Michelle Obama, who's expected to speak about the role the president plays in the lives of American children in shaping their values and aspirations -- and how she sees Clinton as best to fill that role. Later in the evening, Bill Clinton, the first of two former presidents to address the convention, will make the case for his wife's election. The theme of the day, though, will be driven by the "Mothers of the Movement" -- a group of speakers that includes the mothers of Eric Garner, Michael Brown, Sandra Bland and more, all men and women who died in police custody or as a result of police actions. Trayvon Martin's mother, whose son died at the hands of neighborhood watch volunteer George Zimmerman, will also speak. President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden will both be on hand to make their case for Clinton -- potentially overshadowing the rest of the evening's roster. But also introducing himself to the nation Wednesday night will be Kaine, just days after being tapped by Clinton as her running mate. He's a former Richmond mayor, Virginia governor and senator, and Democratic National Committee chairman, but he's never run nationally before. Clinton will accept the Democratic nomination and deliver one of the biggest speeches of her political life -- on par with declaring in China that "women's rights are human rights" and more important than her 0000 concession speech in which she declared she'd placed "00 million cracks" in the glass ceiling.

Know your driver: "Chain se sona hai, toh jag jaaye". A popular phrase from a TV programme which translates to if you want to sleep peacefully then wake up. It is true. How often do we read news reports about accidents like a school bus full of children involved in an accident? If you are thinking of hiring a driver who will drop your kids to school or you to your office, you need to run a background check on them to know about your driver's past. Where children or your own safety is involved, make sure to know the background of these people into whose care you entrust your kids. Marriage Partner Verification: Don't risk your son's or daughter's life with an unverified marital alliance. Marriage fraud today is on the rise. Check, verify and find out everything you possibly can before getting them married. Whether the prospective spouse lives overseas, in another part of India or even from the same city, their background should be checked and verified. Entering into a marriage without proper verification can cost you and your child emotional and financial damages. Hiring care givers: Many of us working class people have elderly parents or relatives at home, in need of constant care. We hire a care giver who can take care of our folks but can we trust them? A simple background check will ensure safety of not our elderly folks but our homes too. Identity theft: So much of our information is available online and there are always chances of someone stealing our identity. So we need to run a self-verification on ourselves to find whether everything on our verification report is fine. Renting out your home: Your new tenant may have a past. A criminal past. A police verification may not reveal everything about them. Run a background check on them before you rent out to them because a comprehensive background check will reveal facts about them that will compromise your own safety. Run a google search with anyone of the situations listed above and see for yourself the amount of news reports or cases that would come up. It should worry you but if there is a problem there is a solution. IndiaVerify, an online verification service offering from AuthBridge, has been designed for the individual customer. With the wealth of screening experience, especially in the Indian market, the team at AuthBridge understood the need for verification services for the independent user. Verifying your domestic help, driver, tenant and your marriage partner is as critical to your personal safety and well-being as is screening candidates, vendors and business partners for the security in the corporate world. So is any of the above 0 situations relevant to you? Then click here and know more on how to run a background check. Any feedback or any enquiry.

Before we could build the best wading boots ever made, we had to define the word best. After much collaboration with our designers, ambassadors and anglers from around the world, not to mention countless hours of in-the-water research, heres what we came up with: The best wading boots need to be ultra-comfortable and supportive for long days in heavy water. They should grip subsurface terrain, muddy trails and the occasional cross-stream log. They must drain quickly and avoid holding excess water. And on top of being tough as nails, they need a lifetime measured in decades. Finally, as we all agreed, not looking like Frankenstein boots would be a plus. Once we knew exactly what we wanted, the world-renowned Danner Boots came into the frame. We combined our fly-fishing experience with Danners legendary quality and craftsmanship to create a wading boot beyond all otherseach one proudly made by hand (with imported parts) in Portland, Oregon. Their flexible, waterproof full-grain leather provides foot-conforming comfort, support and protection, while stitch-down construction creates a wide, stable base thats easily resoled when the need arises. The adjustable lacing system has traditional eyelets across the forefoot and speed lacing through the ankle; the speed lacing provides easy tightening, supports the ankle when wading on uneven surfaces and helps lock the heel in place. Durable, super-grippy 0/0" polyester felt soles hold fast on slick bedrock and river-smooth cobble. Simply put, these are the best boots weve ever made, and we believe theyre the last ones youll ever need to buy.

Connersville's Jonah Graham keeps his head down during a drive on the fairway at Forest Hills Country Club, last season at the IHSAA sectional. Graham and the Spartans open their 0000 season at the Yorktown Invitational on Saturday, April 0. Connersville's Alex Austerman leans into a fairway shot last spring at Greensburg. Austerman will be one of three seniors for the Spartans this season. Connersville's Breydan Shafer chips out of the rough at the Connersville High School Invitational meet last year at Willowbrook Country Club. Shafer is back for his senior season with the Spartans. Entering the 0000 golf season, the Connersville High School boys team will be looking to end a four-year regional drought. Connersville won the sectional in 0000, the Spartans accomplishing that behind the efforts of Evan Pflum, Tyler Kendall, Chandler Graves, Micah Kelley and Dalton Lee. In the following year, CHS wasn't nearly as fortunate, finishing eighth, 00 strokes away from earning one of the top three spots at the sectional. In the two following years, however, the team inched closer to a regional qualification, missing the cut by a dozen strokes in 0000 and by only nine swings last year. None of those golfers are back for the 0000 edition, as the last of those, Lee, graduated last season after earning an individual trip to the regional. Guiding the Spartans to what they hope will be a return to the Muncie regional will be new coach Jeff Martin, who takes over for J.J. Huber. While he might be the first-year coach with the Spartans, Martin will be no stranger to the players on the team nor the course at Willowbrook Country Club. Martin has spent the past five years (four of them as head coach) at Connersville Middle School, meaning he is being reunited with most of the CHS roster. The Spartans will have three seniors on the ‘00 squad - Alex Austerman, Hutton Getz and Breydan Shafer. One other golfer, Jonah Graham returns to the team for his sophomore season. "I believe that Jonah has the potential to be our No. 0, if he continues to work the way he has," Martin said. That's the only experienced players Martin will have to work with, as the team waves goodbye to Lee, Jeremiah Friend, Cooper Griffin, Adam Kelly, Cade Kelley, Ryan McIntyre, Brayden Pea and Ryan Scott. Joining the four returnees this season will be five freshmen. Playing their first high school matches will be Grady Getz, Braden Moore, Nathan Shawl, Ethan Steele and Dylan Thomas. With the four returning players more than likely filling the top four spots in CHS' line-up, it will fall to the freshmen to fill the other two spots at each meet. "As far as numbers go, we're hurting a little bit," Martin said. "Some kids that were expected to play, didn't come out. There aren't enough upperclassmen to carry the team throughout the season, which means the younger players are going to have to step up in a hurry, if we're going to be successful. Both the returning players and freshman have a common focus, as the season approaches, Martin pointed out. Connersville's first home meet is set for Friday, April 00. That will be one of only five appearances at Willowbrook for the Spartans, as they're back in town on April 00 (vs. Batesville, Franklin County, Oldenburg Academy), April 00 (vs. Knightstown, Shelbyville), May 0 (Union County) and on May 00 for their home invitational. The sectional at Richmond is scheduled for June 0, and getting into one of the top three spots to advance to the regional to end CHS' four-year drought, won't be easy Martin says. Both of those teams finished ahead of the Spartans at last year's postseason meet. In addition to those two, Hagerstown, last year's sectional champion, will be led by individual sectional champion Carson Orr, and should be considered a true threat at the meet, as well. The Spartans open their season at the Yorktown Invitational on Saturday, April 0.

And we are back in the room! I'm not sure why I haven't been blogging recently. I have been really struggling to get a balance between life, work and general self care. I have big exciting projects for this blog and business, but I am not sure why I am struggling to take that one step forward. Can anyone else relate to this? I think one of the most important things is to get out of a state of in-action and get back into action! I initially was putting myself under a lot of pressure over here, to blog daily and show up in a big way. But the reality of that is whilst running a busy full time wedding photography business, moving house and planning my own wedding, my focus is really split at the moment. That being said, I listened to a really great podcast the other day by the wonderful Alex Beadon, and she reminded me that if you want something really bad, you will be willing to focus on it to make it come to life. I love this space and really want to nurture it and bring it into life the way I have envisioned for it and the plans and goals of where I want by Charlotte to go. So I am changing things up a little bit on my weekly work routine to accommodate a set time for me to be able to work on content for this space and the projects I have in the pipeline. I want to talk about topics that are really interesting to you as the reader, to be inspired by, to learn something new, to have an insight into how I run my business and I hope that you love it! The last couple of months I have tried to balance a lot of plates and an area I have been trying to give more time to is looking after myself. I know that sounds silly - but it is true. Running my own business is pretty much 00/0 - I love it, I thrive off it and seeing how my hard work has been paying off over the last year is so rewarding. But between shooting weddings, photographing bloggers for their Instagram/Blog content, running my own social media, editing weddings, delivering client products, maintaining client communication and some form of blogging schedule (although a little non existent) and creating some behind the scenes projects for by Charlotte - as well as the few freelance jobs I have, it is a bit full on here work wise. But making sure I still feel like I have my s**t together, making sure I have time for myself is really important and a crucial part. So yes that meant I was watching Love Island every night over the past 0 months....don't judge or hate....it is a totally guilty pleasure and I hated the fact that I loved watching it! But also having lunch with friends sometimes, going for a longer dog walks in new places, learning something new and out of my comfort zone, mindless scrolling through Instagram home reno accounts just because, reading a magazine with one too many cups of teas, having a little bit of a relaxed morning, not stressing that I am not getting up at 0am every morning, treating myself to a few new pieces in my wardrobe and having fun days out at festivals making memories. And you know what...all of these are ok. Part of me felt guilty for everything I just listed above in the moment. Guilty to be taking time out, to not be ticking things off the to-do list, to not be sitting at my desk or with my camera in hand. But now reflecting on it, it was totally fine and I think doing these things, no matter how big or small, had such a positive impact on me - whether that meant I had a bit of down time and relaxed, switched off for half and hour, a day whatever it was, it meant later in the day, or the following day I was way more recharged and ready to go, full of energy and ideas - ready to go! I guess I just wanted to share this little insight today. Not prewritten or scheduled, just from myself today in the moment! I'd love to hear from you below if you resonate with this at all. " Get to Know Me - 00 random questions!

Founded by German Mennonites in the early 00th century, Berlin (now Kitchener) and Waterloo were thriving cities when Peter Moyer published the first edition of the Berlin Daily News on February 00, 0000. Now called the Waterloo Region Record, the newspaper's commitment to top-notch reporting and community involvement is nowhere more evident than in "Flash from the Past," a weekly column devoted to preserving the region's past. In 0000, Record librarian Chris Masterman began inviting readers to share memories sparked by photos she unearthed from the newspaper's archive, a tradition carried on by columnist Jon Fear. Their responses tell the stories that history forgot - the treasured memories and careful details that make a community its own, forging a relationship between the Record and its readers that set a new standard for newsrooms across the country. Marking the 000th anniversary of the Waterloo Region Record's publication, Flash from the Past: 000 Photographs from the Waterloo Region Record showcases the column's best. Lovingly curated by Fear and Masterman, this one-of-a-kind collection celebrates the history of the area and those dedicated to preserving it.

This series presents directions to stimulate the thinking of pastoral leaders, helping them focus on the important ministry of inviting. Parishes may, to a greater or lesser extent, greet and welcome. But few parishes consciously invite-and this at a time when participation in church is falling across all the religious spectrum. I do not think there is any area that receives more discussion than that of "inactive Catholics." Just about every sociological research book goes through the numbers from different angles, but they all tell the same story: if you use sociological and statistical methods, you see nothing but erosion in church attendance among non-Latino Catholics, particularly in the younger generations. Latinos themselves, by the way, are no sure bet because other studies show erosion, and potential erosion, among their identity with the Church-but more about them in a future Evangelization Exchange. Christian Smith surveyed "emerging Catholics" between 00 and 00, a cohort he has been following with his other researchers for years (Young Adult Catholics, Oxford, 0000). William D'Antonio continued his periodic (every 0 years) study of Catholics and sees the decline in church attendance, particularly among younger cohorts, but the level of drop appears to have slowed down (American Catholics in Transition, Rowman & Littlefield, 0000). These studies confirm what Robert Putnam and David Campbell pointed out in their wonderful book, American Grace (Simon and Shuster, 0000), about the significant decline in attendance among European-derived Catholics in the United States. What seems very clear to me is this: if we use the yardstick of considering an active Catholic as one who goes to Mass with some frequency, then numbers will inevitably look bad. We hear it said that "monthly is the new weekly" in Mass attendance, and there's probably a lot of truth in this. It's safe to say that on a regular basis, a parish sees 00% of its parishioners-"regular" meaning once or month or more. So, evidently, on a regular basis Catholic parishes do not see 00% of their parishioners. One implicit attitude that comes from this way of posing the question is this: concluding that people who do not regularly go to church have no faith life. This, however, would be a mistake. Studies show that, by other standards, Catholics have various and regular religious activity, particularly praying, upholding Catholic social teachings, and a solid core of belief. As D'Antonio and his associates put it, in their chapter on Conclusions, ". . . [W]e think it is important to point out that there is a solid socio-theological basis to how Catholics construe what it means to be Catholic. (000)" In other words, attending liturgy remains fundamental to Catholic life, but we cannot let this importance lead us to define the whole picture. Another immediate conclusion is that in future years we will be dealing more and more with people who have what I call "episodic" involvement with coming to church-a few weeks present, a few weeks away, then back again. People bring their worship life into an environment of constant pressure and much travel. We are less and less in neighborhoods within walking distance of a church; we are more and more suburbanites or new urbanites with options galore in front of us. An important strategy, long term, is increasing the likelihood of people to attend Mass until it becomes an ingrained behavior-not in the "I-have-to-go" model of former days, but in the "I-want-to-go" model which probably is the only effective one in the decades ahead. Apart from all these considerations, it is almost scandalous how terribly little parishes do to reach out to less-than-active Catholics. Operating with the assumption that "if we get enough people to pay the bills" is how we look at parish success will only lead to smaller congregations. We have to convert our paradigm: we need to be reaching every Catholic, and every potential inquirer. This is the least that Jesus, and our Church, is asking of parish leadership. So what might parishes do? Inventory your own registered parishioners. Try to find out who is very active, who is little active. See if there are patterns. Pay particular attention to families that seem to be quite inactive. Get a sense of who your parish regularly reaches, and how. You can design a specific outreach to the names you actually have registered who seem not to be active. Think here of general communication but also of particular events you might design to connect with these people. Of course, should you be able to develop a visiting team to drop in on some of these folks, then you would have hit the jackpot. Parishes actually do these and find it successful. You can try to "cast the net a little further out." Using social media, email blasts, and other channels that are effective in your neighborhood, inviting people to "come and see." Some neighborhoods have local papers that everyone reads. Others have storefronts where owners let organizations put up fliers. Talk to parishioners in real estate and other heavily public relations kinds of businesses to get ideas. At least once, but preferably more, run a particular program to reach inactive Catholics. Parishes do this and feel that, if they've reached only 0 or 0 people, they then worked hard for small pickings. But this kind of ministry is cumulative. Not only the 0 or 0 people each time (which can add up over 0 years), but the way people notice that inactive Catholics are being welcomed. You create a buzz. People are drawn by that. We can see this from those parishes in almost every diocese that seem to draw young adults. At Paulist Evangelization Ministries, we have "Awakening Faith" which over a thousand parishes have ordered. The Paulists also offer Landings International as another approach to less-than-active Catholics. Another program that has been used for years is Catholics Returning Home. And Mr. Tom Peterson has developed diocesan outreach program called Catholics Come Home. Nothing is clearer from the profile of Pope Francis than this: to be a less self-centered church, hanging on to past positions and privileges, and a more other-focused Church of welcome is a key part of our being the Church that Jesus called us to be. Certainly, building bridges with our own people through outreach has to be high on the list of what Christ is calling us to do.

The director of the CAMA Gallery believes that art should be more visible at the community level and communicate with the general public is not the responsibility of the artist, it is the role of the gallery and cultural operators who are working on introducing artists' art. According to the Shabestan News Agency: the association of a community with visual arts and enjoying artistic expression in social communication is a topic that has been considered in the world for decades. Familiarising people with the history of art, expanding the museums' general activities, enhancing arts and artistic activities in cities, and holding biennials and exhibitions is one of the actions that today emphasizes the enjoyment of art to the benefit of society. Our country has also witnessed an increase in the number of artistic galleries in the past years, a greater presence of artists in international exhibitions and auctions, and more attention to the art of urban management. However, visual arts are still not a matter for the general public, with an exception in the small population in the centre of metropolises that they are particularly interested in art, nor are they aware of its developments. To discuss this issue and the questions, we sat in a conversation with the painter and director of the CAMA Gallery, Mona Khosheghbal. How can an artist create a work that communicates with the public, reaches houses, and reaches out to the level of the community from the special galleries? In principle, the artist must create an art that everyone understands, the artist is obligated to increase the level of culture and artistic understanding of the society. If the artist cannot lead and bring new ideas, he would lose the most important principle of art. The true artist is never subjected to requests and fashion, but he tries to express his unique inner life and experience in an artistic manner with the creation of his works. The fact that galleries should be more known and seen at the community level and more connected with the general public is certainly not the task of the artist, it is precisely the task of cultural and governmental practitioners. Have media, art galleries, and art dealers been able to strive for more visual artwork amongst the community? Of course, gallery work is a hard job, especially when there is no governmental support and no subsidy is considered, the private sector can hardly boost this trend alone. In these years, we have been running a steady trend with the efforts of the private sectors, today, we are more or less in the process of introducing and selling artworks. How have the art trustee institutions been able to influence the generalization of art? During these years, we have witnessed such efforts as expeditions, biennials, symposiums, etc, but they have never been coherent, and they have not been continuous, the cross-sectional movement can never be a world-wide influence. Of course, if each of the cultural and artistic movements, are coherent and organized and not implemented in a cross-sectional way, we will achieve the supreme goal of familiarizing the community with the artwork. How much can galleries make to the art economy in the current market situation? Buying and selling artwork is one of the most important businesses all over the world, because the return of capital with value added is accompanied by tax exemptions and strict customs rules for art, which is why other reasons, the description of which is very specialized and detailed, is the most exclusive factor To attract capital through galleries to the art and artwork of artists, there is no doubt that the creation of creative and exquisite artistic exhibitions with new and new words can greatly influence the audience's attraction.

Andrews Space & Technology (AS&T) successfully demonstrated the fundamental operating principles of a propulsion system that could dramatically affect interplanetary space travel, shortening round trips to Mars from two years to six months and making future trips to Jupiter and back a two-year affair. AS&T tested the Company's Mini-Mag Orion propulsion concept by completing two magnetic compression technology experiments in the world's largest pulse power machine under a NASA Phase II Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) contract. In cooperation with Sandia National Laboratories and the University of Washington's Department of Aeronautics & Astronautics, AS&T successfully verified the process of compressing solid matter to high densities in an electromagnetic field. A space propulsion system using the same processes would have the same thrust as the Space Shuttle Main Engine, but be fifty (00) times more efficient.

In the first decisions concerning the anti-terrorism measures provided by the resolutions adopted by the Security Council of United Nations (UN), the Court of First Instance (CFI) of the European Union (EU) has clearly shown deference towards political choices adopted at the global level. Such decisions were based on two assumptions: that EU institutions had to comply with UN law and that the latter took precedence over all other treaties, including those protecting human rights, such as the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR), except where jus cogens applied. On appeal, the European Court of Justice (ECJ) quashed the decision of the CFI precisely on these grounds. While explicitly excluding UN law from the scope of its judgment and recognizing the primacy of international law, the ECJ has emphasized the autonomy of the EU legal order. Accordingly, though confirming that such regulations were not ultra vires, it has affirmed that respect for human rights is a condition of the lawfulness of the acts adopted by EU institutions, such as the contested Regulations. It has found that such Regulations had the effect of prejudicing fundamental procedural safeguards such as the right to be heard and to seek judicial redress, and as a result, has annulled them. Interestingly, moreover, the ECJ has referred to the process which is "due" not only to EU citizens, but to everyone, including aliens.

On Tuesday, the EBA (European Banking Authority) released the results of twelfth report of its ongoing monitoring exercise on the European Banking system. Overall, the results show a further improvement of capital, leverage and liquidity ratios in accordance with the Basel III international financial standard and CRD IV and CRR directives. The EBA assessment has been based data summited by banks from 00 EU member states and Norway. Overall, 000 banks divided into two groups, depending on their Tier 0 capital and size. Group 0 is made up by 00 internationally active institutions with Tier 0 capital in excess of €0 billion. Group 0 consists of 000 banks divided in different subgroups, the first one made up by large banks with Tier 0 capital ranging between €0.0 and €0 billion, and the last subgroup consisting of institutions with Tier 0 capital under €0.0 billion. The results obtained, based on data as of the end of December 0000 show an improvement with respect to the results obtained six months before. On December 00, 0000, the average Tier 0 capital ratio of EU Banks stood at 00.0%, up from 00.0% in June of that same year. In both instances, the levels reached were wide above the required minimum. In average leverage ratio stood at 0% as of the end of December, an increase from June 0000 (0.0%). The minimum requirement is 0%. Finally, 00.0% of EU banks exceed the minimum liquidity requirement (000%). In December, the average stood at 000.0%. Who will decide where the seat of the EBA is located? How? Where will the future seat of the EBA, the European Banking Authority be located? As of today, the only thing clear is that, as a result of the brexit, the institution will have to pass the torch to another EU city. The city chosen to host this European institution, responsible for ensuring the effective and consistent oversight and regulation of the European banking sector, will be announced soon. One of the topics of debate in the European Union's Payment Services Directive 0, better known as PSD0, is how to articulate the access to customer data by third parties. The European Banking Authority (EBA) has said it is in favor of access through Application Program Interfaces (APIs), which it regards as being more secure in protecting customer data. That position differs from the one taken to date by the European Commission.

As I'm sure most of you know by now our little Frank was very seriously ill shortly after he was born with GBS Meningitis. I've talked openly about Frank's time in hospital and while I have mentioned on Instagram briefly that he has lots of appointments I've never really shared details on his progress. We had a brief period of just a couple of weeks after being discharged from hospital before the follow-up appointments began and since then we've been back at the hospital or at the Specialist Children's Centre almost every week for one thing or another. Initially all of Frank's appointments were really positive. We came out of his first physio session at 0 weeks old with only positive comments. He had an Audiology exam at 00 weeks old which he passed with flying colours, and a Cranial Ultrasound shortly after which also showed as being clear. At the first appointment with the Neurologist we were told how great it was to see such a healthy baby. At the next physio session however, at around 00 weeks old, the therapist raised some concerns over Frank's muscle tone and movement. For the first 00 weeks of his life Frank was on some very strong anti-seizure medication (after he had a cluster of seizures at 0 days old) which essentially meant that he was incredibly sleepy most all of the time. This obviously had an impact on his development but it also affected his muscle tone. Once he was weaned off the medication it became obvious that all of his muscles were very tight and some of his movement was not quite right. For example he would arch his back, was unable to lie on his side, he kept his fists clenched most of the time and his arms and legs would go stiff with any heightened emotion. At 0 months old these things weren't a huge issue we were told, he may simply outgrow them and it would only be if they were still apparent at 0 months that it was any cause for concern. It came as a shock to us. Everything previously had been so positive that we had really begun to believe that Frank was going to be one of the lucky ones that surprised everyone and made a full recovery. I came home, put Frank down for his nap and began googling everything the physio had just told us (I know, I know - never a good idea!) Every search bought up the same thing - Cerebral Palsy. It was one of the things that had been mentioned to us in the hospital as a possible after effect of his meningitis. As I read the signs and symptoms in babies, it felt like someone was describing my precious little boy - he was showing almost every single sign. At the next appointment I mentioned that I had been reading up on Cerebral Palsy and that I was concerned that Frank was showing signs of it. I longed to be told that I was just a paranoid mum but instead the therapist simply agreed with me. She explained that generally Doctors don't like to diagnose before the age of two, so for now now all we could do was wait and see. I'll admit for several weeks every spare chance I had, I would frantically google stories of children with cerebral palsy. I couldn't just "wait and see" I needed to find a story of someone with the exact same symptoms as Frank, and find out what kind of life that child was living. But the thing with CP is that no two cases are the same, so even if I did find an account of a baby similar sounding to Frank, that wouldn't necessarily mean that things would be the same for Frank later down the line. It took me a while to accept this and to realise that waiting really is our only option right now. So every day we do the exercises and stretches, I put him in his special chair, we go to Physio, OT, and Hydrotherapy and we try and fit in extra swimming sessions wherever we can as the water helps his muscles relax. At times it all feels like an enormous pressure and responsibility. If we have a day out and I don't find time to do his exercises I feel guilty, am I delaying his development, is it my fault if he doesn't make enough progress, am I doing enough? I'm conscious that the poor boy needs to have some fun as well, it's bad enough that he has so many appointments, I can't spend every spare minute making him work! The truth is we don't yet know whether Frank has Cerebral Palsy. He does have a lot of signs, and they have persisted after 0 months. He's developmentally delayed, that we do know. At 0 months he can't sit up, or roll over and he's not yet picking up toys. But he IS making progress. He's beginning to bat at toys, and his hands are opening up more than they were previously. At our most recent appointment with the Neurologist he noted some positive movements that he said would be very difficult for a baby with CP to do. So we are hopeful. And we are learning to be patient. But most of all we are making sure we enjoy Frank and every minute of our time together. Whatever the future holds for my little boy, he's going to be just fine. Hi Kate, I follow you on Instagram for a long time and the story of your little boy is so touching. I wish you and him a very happy new year, his smile is a ray of sunshine ! He's a gorgeous little boy. He's perfect whatever his future holds. That's the same for all of us parents. A huge journey into the unknown with no guarantees, just our heart going around outside our chests, raw and vulnerable. Good luck. I enjoy your Instagram and have followed his story. I follow you on Instagram and have followed your story of Frank, he is such a gorgeous smiley boy 😁 enjoy every moment with him, he is going to be who he is going to be and with you both as his parents he has all the support that he may need as he grows up. I follow you on Instagram and have a little boy who is 0 weeks younger than your gorgeous little boy. (I am also a doctor so know a little about this scenario from a medical point of view ). I have never commented on any social media, but I just wanted to post to give my support and say that you come across as a wonderful mummy! I'm sure Frank is getting the best start he can! We've had a few health issues with our little one and it really is a hard journey but, wow, isn't it worth it?! I have to say that I love these updates. It's not just lovely house pics that make people follow you. There are tons of interiors accounts and blogs to follow but people stick around here for what you say, the way you say it, your personality and the stories you share. I know in the past people have unfollowed you for doing these very personal posts but I think they are hugely important on so many levels so thank you very much for sharing such an intimate time with us all. I totally love seeing Frank's huge smiling face. You are giving him the perfect, loving home and family. Don't worry about feeling guilty. All mum's feel that for everything - you just have bigger worries than most. But rest assured you are doing it all right. He's totally gorgeous and what will be will be. He will be happy, he will be loved and at the end of the day that's what we all wish for our kids. I have only recently discovered your interiors on Insta but I just wanted to wish you all the best with your beautiful boy. I think it takes true courage to share such difficult things; courage that Frankie obviously shares with his Mum. You are doing an amazing job. Your son looks so happy and sounds as though he's making really good progress. Keep up the great work and look after yourselves.

Botanical drawings of more than 000 species of plants that cannot be found growing. Surreal depictions of naked women, their bodies contorted and intertwined with tubes, like an H.R. Giger painting. Washes of an inked script that sprawls out like a map of Middle-earth, but clearly resembles language. Call it tempting fate, then, because that's exactly what a small Spanish publisher is doing. The house, Siloe, has acquired the rights to have the manuscript copied for a small-patch publication. It's not a reprinting, per se, since it's an incomparably complex work and the last Spanish attempt at restoration ended in internet infamy. Rather, they're ‘cloning' the pages so that readers - scholars and rich folk with a morbid curiosity - can recreate feeling the weight of the ancient tome, down to the wear and tears. The 000 copies are going for approximately $0,000 dollars apiece, and 000 have already been purchased. Its murky history aside, the Voynich Manuscript itself has an illustrious backstory all its own. Over the course of centuries, it has passed hands from an ancient astronomer to a 00th century German emperor (Rudolph II, if you're wondering), on to Jesuit scholars and eventually into the hands of the book dealer it is named after, Wilfrid Voynich. Intellectuals and experts for generations, including a WWII codebreaker, have attempted to crack the text and its origins, to no avail. If the asking price is too rich for you, Yale has also digitized most of the pages. You can read the full text here to temper your brain to see if you'd go insane viewing the grimoire in the flesh.

So, without further ado, here are your questions, and our answers. Q: What is the impact to capacity from deploying IoT and its overhead channels on a broadband LTE network? This question applies more to in-band deployment scenarios, where NB-IoT is utilizing resource blocks within an LTE carrier. The NB-IoT carrier is a self-contained network element that uses a single physical resource block (PRB). If there is no IoT traffic, a PRB available for an NB-IoT carrier may be used instead for other purposes, as the infrastructure and spectrum usage of LTE and NB-IoT are fully integrated. The base station scheduler multiplexes NB-IoT and LTE traffic onto the same spectrum, which minimizes the total cost of operation for machine-type communication (MTC), which essentially scales with the volume of MTC traffic. Multiple techniques have been implemented as part of release 00 to insure there is no capacity impact to LTE other than when NB-IOT traffic is being served. Fewer channels and signals are used in NB-IoT than LTE. Also, if the NB-IoT cells are properly optimized, the noise/interference effect generated for the adjacent cells and PRBs will be minimal, which can also impact overall network capacity. Q: By adding NB-IoT to the eNB, will that impact the power budget of the existing eNB? A power amplifier is a shared resource, so of course if there are multiple PRBs used for LTE then in that case that power is not used by the eNB for other LTE services. Also, the power boost feature will use some power, but in a well-optimized network with minimal inter PRB and intercell interference, power control should limit any capacity impact. Q: Am I able to demodulate a master information block (MIB ) over the air (OTA) with CellAdvisor? VIAVI CellAdvisor™ can demodulate OTA information to provide you detailed signal quality analysis, including subframe information for different control and sync NB- channels. Yet decoding MIB and SIB (System Information Block) 0/0 messages with CellAdvisor is only possible through RF over Fiber when testing on CPRI links. Q: What IoT technologies are supported by VIAVI test equipment? Is LoRa the most deployed IoT network? Currently we support 0GPP standard NB-IoT analysis on CellAdvisor. In the future we plan to support CAT-M0 (AKA LTE-M). LoRa and Sigfox are unlicensed spectrum IoT technologies that have been in commercial use for a longer time; however, they offer a separate set of challenges, which is driving more IoT type services towards licensed IoT technologies. Q: Correct me if I am wrong but this is oriented to NB-IoT devices more than network validation features, so does the concept of EVM apply as a quality measurement from the network perspective? Correct, we were talking from a network perspective. Network and devices both need to be validated, and VIAVI CellAdvisor is a very useful solution to validate the performance and operation of NB-IoT/LTE networks. The 0GPP standards also specify minimum acceptable EVM values for several network control channels. Q: Are the NB-IoT measurements part of the general LTE module software or do we need an NB-IoT software option? Q: Is there a new device class defined in 00.000 for Cat-M0 and NB-IoT devices? To minimize the impact of connectivity on device battery life, there are two power class options that can be used for Cat-M0 and NB-IoT devices. One is traditional mobile LTE device on 00dBm (Power Class 0) and a new, less power-hungry one at 00dBm (Power Class 0). The latest 0GPP Release 00 adds an even less power-hungry class at 00dBm (Power Class 0). Q: Can we implement in-band NB-IoT overlaid on existing 0-sector sites with acceptable interference levels? Assuming a correct level of network optimization, you may expect some reduced level of interference between the different sectors, just like what would be the case with the standard LTE signal, where the general assumption is that you may be transmitting a different PCI (Physical Cell ID) from each of the 0 sectors using the same LTE carrier. For in-band NB-IoT specifically, the main point would be to understand the levels of Inter-PRB interference or interference between two different PRB's that may originate from each sector, particularly if using the same PRB index (or any adjacent ones) for each of the 0 different NB-IoT signals. Q: Will NB-IoT be supported in TDD as well or only in FDD? Also, can delay-sensitive applications can be supported in NB-IoT? Both 0GPP IoT standards NB-IoT and CAT-M can operate duplex modes based on HD-FDD. There is also a possibility for CAT-M to operate in TDD, however support for NB-IoT in TDD mode is still under discussion. Regarding the use of NB-IoT for delay-sensitive applications, this would depend on the specific latency requirements that need to be supported. NB-IoT by design is not meant to offer millisecond latencies to simplify chipset costs and enhance battery autonomy. If your application is delay sensitive and requires latencies e.g. in the range of few milliseconds, you may want to consider LTE-CAT M0 as an alternative. Learn more about narrowband IoT testing on our NB-IoT solution page.

Working capital can sometimes be, well, difficult to work around. So, from spreading your risk, to bricks and mortar security, we've outlined some tips and strategies to help make sure you're in the best position to grow your business and have the cash flow you need to keep calm and carry on. Wages out every fortnight? Stock to Pay for? Power, Insurance, Rent - all that to pay and you have given your customer 00 day terms? Understanding the working capital requirements of your business is key to ensuring that you have the cash available to fund those requirements. A Squirrel Commercial Adviser can help you ensure that your lending is set up to provide for that rainy day and ensure that any funding gaps in your trading business can be met. Ever heard the expression, "Don't put all your eggs in one basket"? Well it couldn't be more true when it comes to business. As a good rule of thumb, you should look to spread your risk across 0-0 lenders, depending on the size of the banking relationship. Banks will often look to tie in property via a General Security Agreement (GSA) or Guarantee so wherever possible, separating property from business via split banking can be a good way to manage this. Some of the smaller lenders aren't always so keen on business lending, so having owner occupied properties through one of these and business banking with one of the bigger banks can be a good place to start. More often than not, a bank will look for bricks and mortar to secure lending and reduce their risk. The more residential security the bank has, the lower the risk. This can work in your favour, because business lending is priced based on risk. So the lower the risk, the better the price. What's our number one piece of advice? Whatever you do, don't wait until you need money before you ask for it. Running good cash flow forecasts and updating them regularly will help you plan. Look for gaps in the future where cash flow could be tight. If you can manage it through the business - do that. If not, speak to us before things get tight. Banks respond a lot better if you're up front and have a clear idea of where your business is at and where it's going. If cash flow is tight, make sure you understand why. Asset finance is also a good product that's sometimes underutilised by businesses. It can be a cheap way to fund assets and can sometimes even release funds to put back into the business if you have freehold assets. This type of funding is highly dependent on the asset, the age of the asset and its current market value. Banks will often fund lending for business purposes unsecured, but this would normally need to be supported by either a GSA over the business assets and/or a Guarantee from the directors. The amount and type will depend on the business itself, directors and the purpose of lending. To determine the rate, the bank will assign a rating to your business. This is based on the security you're offering, performance of the business, both now and in the future, the industry and the business itself. This rating then determines the interest rate that will be applicable. The lower the risk, the better the rate. So do your homework and planning carefully. Is it an existing business or new? If it's existing, what is the trading history and what's changed to require this funding? How will it increase sales and net profit? If the business is new, what's the experience of the directors within the industry, what's the brand and is it proven. What have you done to support your request? Have you completed cash flow forecasts and business plans and have the directors undertaken anything to assist with this? All of these can really help the request and show that you are fully committed to the proposition. What are the directors putting into the business? Banks don't normally like funding capital alone. You need to show commitment to the business. Banks will normally only fund a loan for up to a maximum term of 00 years, but a 0-year term is more common. Don't want to talk to the bank?

According to the chairman Kampala City Traders Association Everest Kayondo, majority of the suppliers will not be part of the group to be paid Shs00b that government has made available for compensation. Mr Kayondo said traders, who particularly supplied individuals and some companies in South Sudan, might have to wait longer or may never be compensated at all. "Verification between our Ministry of Trade and the South Sudan Ministry of Commerce is not complete. They [are the ones to] have the last word on this issue," he said in a phone interview yesterday. Mr Kayondo also pointed out that the biggest problem at the moment was about documentation with many traders finding it difficult to compile key items such receipts and other related documents. "Issues of proper receipts and related documents are a serious matter. And for that I am afraid some of our traders, especially those who supplied local companies and individuals may not be paid," he said. Many traders lost property worth billions of shillings after South Sudan got entangled in a debilitating civil war in 0000. Some have since lost their properties to banks over failure to sufficiently survive their loans. About 00 companies, under the Uganda South Sudan Grain Traders and Suppliers Association, which supplied maize and sorghum to 00 South Sudan states under the Strategic Grain Reserves Suppliers worth $00m (Shs000b) between 0000 and 0000, will be partly compensated. The South Sudan government has only paid $00m (Shss00b), leaving a debt of $00m (Shs000b). The process was halted following a civil war that broke out between forces loyal to President Salva Kiir and former vice president, Dr Riek Machar. Recently, the Parliament's Committee on National Economy recommended that government of Uganda pays the balance of $00m (Shs000b) whose supplies have been supplied. The South Sudan government, according to the recommendations by MPs, is expected to repay the money, based on a repayment schedule agreed upon between the two governments in a five-year Bilateral Agreement that runs from 0000 to 0000. Under the agreement, 00 suppliers who dealt directly with the South Sudan government will be paid. However, the process leaves out majority of the suppliers, who under the Joint Association for Redemption of Ugandan Traders in South Sudan, have presented claims of $0.000m (Shs00b), the bulk of which is unverified.
