Garryowen Traditional Irish Songs [ Garryowen is known to have been used by Irish regiments as a drinking song . The name is derived from Gaelic meaning Owen ' s garden , and is nowadays part of Limerick city . That was where the 5th Royal Irish Lancers made their home , and soon the song became associated with the Lancers ' drinking . The Irish poet Thomas Moore wrote the words around 1807 . The tune is first documented as Auld Bessy in 1788 . General George Armstrong Custer reportedly heard the song among his Irish troops and liked it . Lieutenant Colonel ( Captain ) Myles W . Keogh and several other officers with ties to the Fifth Royal Irish Lancers and the Papal Guard , two Irish regiments in the British Army , were believed to be instrumental in bringing the air to the regiment . The tune was then played so often the 7th Cavalry became tied to it . In 1867 it was adopted as the official marching song of the Seventh Cavalry . It was the last song played for Custer ' s men as they left general Alfred Terry ' s column at the Powder River and rode into history by being defeated by the warriors of the Lakota , Cheyenne and Arapaho nations on the morning of 25th June 1876 at the Battle of Little Bighorn ] Let Bacchus ' sons be not dismayed But join with me each jovial blade Come booze and sing and lend your aid To help me with the chorus Chorus : Instead of spa we ' ll drink brown ale And pay the reckoning on the nail For debt no man shall go to gaol ( jail ) From Garryowen in glory We are the boys that take delight in Smashing the Limerick lamps when lighting Through the street like sportsters fighting And tearing all before us We ' ll break the windows , we ' ll break the doors The watch knock down by threes and fours Then let the doctors work their cures And tinker up our bruised We ' ll beat the bailiffs out of fun We ' ll make the mayor and sheriffs run We are the boys no man dares dun If he regards a whole skin Our hearts so stout have got us fame For soon ' tis known from whence we came Where ' er we go they dread the name Of Garryowen in glory Johnny Connell ' s tall and straight And in his limbs he is complete He ' ll pitch a bar of any weight From Garryowen to Thomondgate Garryowen is gone to rack Since Johnny Connell went to Cork Though Darby O ' Brien leapt over the dock In spite of judge and jury

Ichiban no Takaramono ( English translation ) Artist : LiSA ( 織部里沙 ) Song : Ichiban no Takaramono English translation Most Precious Treasure All those times , the days that we ’ d met We would always fight , lie and scream But still it ’ s one of the days I hold dear If not for you , I would not be the person standing here so proudly And you taught me how to fight my fears That I can make my dreams come true at will If I try … Even though my heart is aching And my weakened spirit breaking I will find a way a way to keep it The memories we made along our dreams And I know you wo n ’ t be coming Though to God , I kept on wishing So when I wake up to morning I wo n ’ t cry , though you ’ re not here with me Whenever I look at the past There is only one thing I see That we were so young , full of life , and naive And now I wonder if this life we hold is nothing more than fleeting dreams . But those thoughts , they only hold me back from becoming all that I can be . I ’ ll move on . I ’ ll go anywhere , just watch me . Never stopping , always growing . Oh , this happiness I ’ m longing I know one day it will be with me . Though our distance may grow further Our circle of friends larger Our love will just grow stronger Proving that we ’ re meant for each other I can feel myself I ’ m losing And the pain in my heart growing But I heard a voice inside me Telling me I should stand and live Every night whenever I sleep I dream that you ’ re laughing here with me And my tears never stopped flowing Never dries , showing the pain I feel So today , I ’ ll take my last chance Waking up from this painful trance I will pick up myself once more Drying the tears that threaten to fall When I close my eyes I can hear Someone laughing with me loud and clear To this day , I held that right here Cause you ’ re still my most precious treasure Submitted by GxCoud on Wed , 23 / 07 / 2014 - 03 : 48 Author ' s comments : This is my translation for Ichiban no Takaramono - Yui ver ~ For more translations , visit : https : / / gxcoud . wordpress . com / translations / Translation source : https : / / gxcoud . wordpress . com / translations / most - precious - treasure - english - transla . . .

Chapman to Yanks ? You better relieve it ! Deal potentially sets up dominant trifecta in back end of New York ' s bullpen NEW YORK - - The Yankees now boast the makings of what could be the most imposing bullpen in baseball , having acquired hard - throwing left - hander Aroldis Chapman from the Reds on Monday in exchange for four Minor League prospects . Chapman is set to join left - hander Andrew Miller and right - hander Dellin Betances in the late innings , giving the Yankees the top three strikeout relievers in the Majors and setting up a trio that could significantly shorten games next season . Bauman : Trade gives Yankees lockdown bullpen trio " The intent is to have an exciting bullpen , as we did this past year , " Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said . " It would be pretty exciting if it was even better than it was last year . " Cincinnati received right - handed pitchers Caleb Cotham and Rookie Davis and infielders Eric Jagielo and Tony Renda in the deal for the 27 - year - old Chapman , who posted a 1.63 ERA in 65 appearances last season . MLBPipeline . com had Jagielo ( No . 6 ) and Davis ( No . 10 ) ranked among the Yankees ' top 30 prospects Chapman was a National League All - Star in each of the past four seasons , but his trade value significantly decreased this month after a pending trade to the Dodgers was called off when allegations of domestic violence surfaced . " Certainly there are some serious issues here that are in play , " Cashman said . " I think it ' s certainly reflected in some of the acquisition price . There ' s risk , and I understand that . " Cashman : Yankees intend to keep Miller It remains unclear if Chapman will face discipline from Major League Baseball regarding an October incident in Davie , Fla . , during which Chapman admitted to police that he fired eight gunshots into a garage after an argument during which his girlfriend alleged that he choked her . His free - agent status could also be affected , as players do not accrue service time during a suspension for domestic violence . Chapman was neither arrested nor charged with a crime . Major League Baseball has yet to complete its investigation under the new domestic violence policy , but Cashman said that the Yankees conducted their own internal investigation , which satisfied them enough to move forward with the trade . " We ' ve done as much due diligence on the subject at hand as we possibly can , and we ' ve completed the transaction based on a lot of that due diligence , " Cashman said . Reds president of baseball operations Walt Jocketty said that four teams were in the final running for Chapman , and that discussions with the Yankees sparked at the Winter Meetings and heated up on Christmas Eve . The allegations and subsequent collapse of the Dodgers trade lowered the Reds ' return . " Given the circumstances that currently exist , I think the price point on acquisition has been modified , " Cashman said . " We felt this was an opportunity for us to add a big arm to our bullpen , even though there are some things that are unresolved and we will respect that process as it plays out . " After earning $ 8.05 million in 2015 , Chapman is due for another sizable raise this winter , as he is eligible for arbitration for a third and final time . However , if Chapman should serve a lengthy suspension in 2016 , it may delay his service clock long enough that he would remain under team control in ' 17 . Hot Stove Tracker Of the four players sent to Cincinnati , only the 28 - year - old Cotham has appeared in the Majors , having compiled a 6.52 ERA in 12 appearances this year . Davis , 22 , finished the season with Double - A Trenton and had been mentioned as a depth rotation candidate for the upcoming campaign . Jagielo , 23 , was the Yankees ' first - round selection in the 2013 Draft and was an Eastern League All - Star this past season at Trenton , but he missed the team ' s final 78 games due to a right knee injury . Renda , 24 , hit .270 in 73 games with Trenton after being acquired by the Yankees from the Nationals on June 11 in exchange for right - hander David Carpenter Chapman is the only pitcher in Major League history with four seasons of at least 30 saves and 100 strikeouts , having done so in each of the past four years . Only Eric Gagne ( 2002 - 04 ) and Billy Wagner ( 1999 , 2003 , ' 10 ) have had as many as three such seasons in their careers . Over six Major League seasons , Chapman has gone 19 - 20 with 146 saves , a 2.17 ERA and a 1.02 WHIP in 324 relief appearances . Since 2010 , he leads all Major League relievers with 15.40 strikeouts per nine innings , and his 546 strikeouts ranks second only to Craig Kimbrel ( 563 ) . " We feel , if Chapman is healthy and is the Chapman that we all have seen over the years , an opportunity exists and we ' ll be served well by having him here whenever he ' s given the ball , " Cashman said . Fantasy spin | Fred Zinkie ( @ FredZinkieMLB The structure of the Yankees ' immensely talented relief corps may be unclear for quite some time . The organization could choose to tip its hand in the coming days about how it will utilize Chapman , Miller and Betances , or it may opt to wait until Spring Training to reveal its plans . Either Chapman or Miller should emerge as the team ' s ninth - inning man , and both have the skills to be a top - tier fantasy closer . Chapman has posted a stellar 2.17 ERA with a 1.02 WHIP and a 15.4 K / 9 rate during his big league tenure . By moving from the rebuilding Reds to the more competitive Yankees , the native Cuban has the potential for his first career 40 - save season in 2016 . Meanwhile , Miller has recently been as effective as virtually any reliever in baseball , recording a Back in Cincinnati , the search will be underway for a new stopper . After posting a 2.94 ERA with a 1.17 WHIP across 64 1 / 3 innings in ' 15 , J.J. Hoover may be the favorite for the ninth - inning gig among the Reds ' current relief corps . But the club may also opt to add a bullpen arm with more closing experience to compete with Hoover , who has just five career saves . Bryan Hoch is a reporter for MLB . com .

Are weighted baseballs a wave of the future ? Research from new study finds they can make a pitcher more effective On baseball ' s biggest stage , one of its best pitchers broke out one of its most controversial training methods . Aroldis Chapman , he of the 105 - mph fastball , was seen throwing off the mound in the Cubs ' bullpen prior to each of his World Series appearances with - - insert audible gasp here - - a 10 - ounce weighted ball . It ' s not a new thing for Chapman . Really , it ' s not a new thing for baseball . Dr . Mike Marshall , who pitched in 106 games for the Dodgers in 1974 , began throwing weighted balls ( a standard ball is 5 ounces ) into a mattress hung on the fence in the early 1970s . Indians pitching coach Mickey Callaway used a 5 - pound ball beginning when he was 14 years old , and he remembers teammate Jeff Sparks using a 15 - pound ball while with Tampa Bay in 1999 ( Working with that ball to strengthen the arm actually is n ' t as crazy as it sounds . For reference , Relievers Mariano Rivera and Armando Benitez warmed up with weighted balls before each of their appearances , and former Yankees pitching coach Mel Stottlemyre says nearly every Cuban pitcher he saw while with the Yanks from 1996 - 2005 used weighted balls as part of their training program . Currently , weighted balls are used - - regularly and openly - - by Chapman , Seattle ' s Felix Hernandez , Cleveland ' s Corey Kluber and Trevor Bauer and Baltimore ' s Zach Britton , among others . A new study by Dr . Glenn Fleisig at the American Sports Medicine Institute in Birmingham , Ala . , which is the research wing of Dr . James Andrews ' practice , advances the cause of those who believe using weighted balls is , indeed , the wave of the future . " The force on the elbow actually goes down as the weight of the ball increases , " Fleisig said . " With a heavier ball , the arm moves more slowly . Newton told us that ' force equals mass times acceleration . ' A heavier ball has more mass , but the arm is moving a lot slower , so throwing a heavier ball actually correlates with decreased arm forces and torque . " Fleisig concluded that throwing slightly underweight and overweight baseballs is not only a reasonable exercise for baseball pitchers , but also that the variation from the normal routine of throwing a 5 - ounce ball serves to increase awareness in the nerves and muscles and can make a pitcher more effective when he returns to the standard baseball . " It makes sense to vary things a little , " Fleisig said . " Mechanics with the lighter and heavier balls are similar enough not to learn anything bad , and tweaking is good for training . It ' s a wake - up call for the body to pay attention . " Perhaps the study will change the mindset of wary big league clubs . Kyle Boddy of Driveline Sports in Seattle uses the balls extensively as a training method . He works with Bauer and more than 80 other professional pitchers who all have a very different experience when they arrive at Spring Training with their weighted baseballs . " When players show up at camp with their weighted balls , I ' d say one - third of teams are openly excited and say , ' Great , here ' s a place to throw them , " ' Boddy said . " Another third would be wary , tell them , ' OK , but please do n ' t get hurt . ' And another third would just take them away . Some clubs are still very , very restrictive . " The Phillies , Marlins , Royals and Pirates are among clubs that have been wary of using this method , with the fear that training with weighted balls - - both underloaded and overloaded - - creates too much stress on the elbow and can cause injury . " The Phillies are not promoters of the weighted balls , " Phils Minor League pitching coordinator Rafael Chaves said . Eric Cressey of Cressey Sports Performance in Jupiter , Fla . , has been using weighted balls to train pitchers since 2007 , and he has been training ' 14 American League Cy Young Award winner Kluber with them since ' 11 . Cressey also gets varied reactions from big league clubs . " Some teams are very alarmist and fly their staffs down here once a month to check on their pitcher and measure their range of motion , " Cressey said . " Others are very open - minded and are totally fine with it . " The Orioles are in the latter camp . Britton started with weighted baseballs as a teenager , when Flint Wallace of Ron Wolforth ' s Texas Baseball Ranch was his coach at Weatherford High School . Britton - - and subsequently , many of the Orioles ' other relievers - - can be seen warming up in the bullpen before every outing with a green 32 - ounce baseball . During the offseason , for most of December and January , Britton uses a full weighted baseball program in which he throws heavier baseballs - - 6 , 8 , 10 , 12 and 32 ounces - - " Shoulder strength and arm speed is what I ' m looking for , " Britton said . " I think the drills where you have to control a little bit more weight have helped with my shoulder stability , and using the lighter ball makes me feel faster and more flexible . For me , it ' s definitely a piece of the puzzle . " It ' s a piece at least a few teams are incorporating . The Dodgers conducted their own experiment with Driveline , and they sent a group of Minor League pitchers who had struggled with injuries and loss of velocity to train with Boddy and his weighted baseballs for 10 weeks last spring . Nearly all of them - - including David Reid - Foley , Andrew Istler and Corey Copping - - returned to pitching off a mound and saw an increase in velocity . " We ' re bullish on any programs that encourage us to train with great intent and intensity , which many weighted ball programs do , " Dodgers director of player developent Gabe Kapler said . " Our pitchers have responded admirably , and our coaches are enthusiastically supporting . " The Indians bought in full - sail long before Bauer and Kluber came on the scene , but those two are certainly the poster children for Cleveland ' s program . Take a walk through their Spring Training facility in Goodyear , Ariz . , and you ' ll see thick , green pads hanging from the chain - link fences of the back fields and pitchers regularly thumping multicolored weighted balls into them . Callaway and Minor League pitching coordinator Ken Knutson say every Indians pitcher uses the weighted balls in some capacity . In 15 years of using weighted balls , Knutson has never had a player say he did n ' t feel good using them . And the reason is very easy to imagine : Give a pitcher a 20 - ounce baseball - - that ' s a pound and a quarter - - and have him shake it around , lift it over his head , mime his throwing motion for 15 or 20 seconds . Then put a baseball in his hand . It feels like a dart . " You always get a smile , because the ball feels so light you feel like you can throw it 100 miles per hour , " Knutson said . " And even if that ' s all you get out of weighted baseballs , I ' m in . " The Indians , though , have had more success than that . After he began using weighted balls , Kluber saw the significant jump in velocity - - and his ability to sustain it as his innings wore on - - that led him to the 2014 AL Cy Young Award . In ' 16 , Bauer , who struggled with command at the start of his career and has used underloaded balls to hone his accuracy , saw his walk rate per nine innings hit a career low and had a zone percentage ( percentage of total pitches in Stottlemyre , who tinkered with weighted balls while rehabbing a rotator cuff injury in the early 1970s , is surprised they have n ' t caught on in a bigger way . " I believe in it , " Stottlemyre said , " and I know one thing for a fact : If I was sitting in the bullpen with Mariano Rivera and I saw him using a weighted ball prior to all of his appearances , I would have me a weighted ball , too . " Lindsay Berra has covered a variety of sports , from baseball and hockey to tennis and the Olympics , since 1999 . She joined MLB . com in 2013 .

March 5th , 2012 , 12 : 14 AM 4 Dodgin ' The Reaper Join Date : Nov 2008 Location : Montana Posts : 8,817 My Pictures Probably 168gr A - max since that ' s my main bullet right now , but if I can get my hands on some bulk cheap 147gr FMJ I ' ll get some of those too . Most of the military ( U.S. Army TM 43 - 0001 - 27 , Dtd April 1994 ) ammo that used the WC 846 powder used 145 - 150 grain bullets , except for the M118 special ball ammo . They specified that either IMR 4895 or WC 846 be used with a powder charge weight of 44 grains and using a 172 grain bullet . WC 846 is reputed to perform very similar to Hodgdon BL - C2 powder . All the powders in this group are well known to perform very well with the 168 grain bullets . I ' ve never used WC 846 myself but I have used the other two powders and they will perform very well so I assume that WC 846 will perform about the same , assuming that that lot of powder is n ' t odd in some way . My normal precision load using IMR 4895 is 41.5 grains under a 168 grain Hornady A - Max . If you were using the same cartridge components as I am with the exception of using BL - C2 powder , the equivalent powder charge weight would be about 43.5 grains of BL - C2 . The muzzle velocities for these loads should be around 2570 fps . The military ' s claim of 46 grains of powder is right up to the high end of what I consider to be the hottest loads that I will use in my rifle I would recommend starting a little low , maybe around 42.5 grains and then go up in half grain increments to no higher than 46 grains . I would bet that you will find your best groups somewhere between 43 and 44 grains of powder . If all you want is speed , then a little more than 44 grains of powder should push that 168 grain bullet to just about 2600 fps . All the normal warnings apply , take it slow and easy , watch for pressure signs . Thanks from tonyben and March 5th , 2012 , 05 : 54 AM 5 nicholst55 Lifer Join Date : Nov 2004 Location : Daegu , Korea Posts : 2,511 My first question is , IN WHAT CARTRIDGE ? March 5th , 2012 , 09 : 22 AM 6 nicholst55 My first question is , IN WHAT CARTRIDGE ? .308 , and possibly .30 - 06 if I can look up some loads people have been successful with . I just want some bulk powder to make bulk ammo . At such a low price I ca n ' t resist the urge to get a few cases . I will keep my 168gr A - max / Varget load as my go - to precision load , but 8 # of Varget or 4895 is $ 130 and the WC846 is $ 90 . RAMMAC , thanks for the info , always great to get your take on March 6th , 2012 , 06 : 37 PM 7 win308 Designated Marksman Join Date : Jan 2005 Location : Parkersburg , WV Posts : 689 With stick powder , like 4895 , you have a bit of latitude on charges . 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 grains with 168 MatchKing will almost always group tightly . . . .though in some guns the 168 likes to be pushed a little hard . With ball powder like WC846 , you almost always have to run " full speed ahead " to get proper ignition and good accuracy with any bullet in a .308 . Your range is much narrower for accuracy with WC846 . . .and the load will be different by I prefer 4895 . . .but if I were buying surplus ball powder , I ' d get the WC844 . . . .good for .308 and .223 . Jeff Bartlett has the WC844 , as do a few others . Let us know what you decide . ( P.S. You can only get 6 jugs of 8 lbs each on 1 HazMat sticker . . .more than that requires another HazMat . . . . . at $ 20 ea . ) .

Franklin Platoon Sergeant Join Date : Feb 2005 Location : Ewa Beach , HI Posts : 332 Better question is how much prolonged bump firing can an AK barrel take ?

They said the barrels were good for the life of the reciever which , IIRC , was 80k - 100k rds . That is for the stamped AKM variant though . I ' d think the milled recievers might last longer . However , the Russians were not all that concerned about accuracy . I would n ' t worry about replacing an AK bbl unless it wo n ' t keep all its shots in a 8 " group at 100 yds . Some AK ' s shoot like that when new , though , lol . Most AK ' s should average anywhere between 3 - 6 inch groups at 100 yds . ETA : Maybe an 8 " group is too strict a standard though . I think you should deceide when it is not accurate enough for you , and then replace the bbl if you want ; ) August 4th , 2005 , 07 : 49 PM 7 Texas Patriot Fire Team Leader Join Date : Aug 2004 Location : S . E . Texas Posts : 177 Seems to me that even if the barrel becomes a smooth bore with too much firing that it wo n ' t change the " accuracy " of an AK that much . Might be best not to clean it too much so that the built up copper and carbon deposits can help protect the lands and grooves in your barrel . That way the barrel last lots longer .

Health Rusks by Danielle on 2012 / 07 / 17 in Kitchen It has been so cold this past weekend and it does n ’ t seem to be letting up just yet , especially for the Cape area , so I decided that Rusks would be an ideal recipe . I make these rusks in winter and they are a real favourite , especially with my husband . Our tea time at night would n ’ t be tea time without one of these rusks plus they are fantastic for grab and go in the mornings when you are in a rush . Maybe I should just say they are FANTASTIC These Health Rusks are really easy to make , the drying time is the only long process in this recipe . INGREDIENTS Ingredients 1 kg self - raising flour 2 tsp ( 10ml ) salt 2 tsp ( 10ml ) baking powder ( optional ) ( I have tried the recipe with & without and works well both ways ) 2 cups ( 500ml ) brown sugar 2 cups ( 500ml ) rolled oats 3 cups ( 750ml ) all bran flakes 2 cups ( 500ml ) sunflower seeds 2 eggs 2 cups ( 500ml ) buttermilk 500g butter , melted METHOD 1 . Mix all the dry ingredients together . Use a large bowl ( I have made the mistake once before , make sure it is a large bowl ) Dry Ingredients 2 . In a separate bowl beat the eggs and buttermilk together . Add to the dry ingredients . Buttermilk and Egg Mix 3 . Melt the butter over the stove or in the microwave . Add to the dry ingredients .

Understanding MACSec ( 802.1AE ) Monday , 9 July 2012 Why MACSec Media Access Control ( MAC ) Security , often known as MACSec is a IEEE standard based protocol for securing communication among the trusted components of a 802.1 LAN . This function is an integral part of and provides security to MACs defined in IEEE standard 802 , 802.2 ( LLC ) , 802.1D ( Bridging ) , 802.1Q ( VLAN ) and 802.1X ( PNAC ) . Before we delve into more details , let ' s investigate why this is required . A LAN is a confined domain of networking components where all MACs can listen to broadcast messages sent by any MAC . In a switched LAN , a MAC sitting on a segment can listen to any messages transmitted by a MAC , regardless of the intended destination of the message . It is therefore obvious that a rogue MAC can use the information contained in the transmitted messages for harmful acts or purpose . These include but not limited to , Denial of service ( DoS ) attack The rogue MAC can simply not follow the backoff rule when collision happens and keep on transmitting on the LAN , thus blocking the entire network . The rogue MAC can transmit as soon as it detects transmission from some other MAC , causing intentional collision Misuse of the information A MAC can always be in promiscuous mode , accept all messages that it sees on the medium and pass on to upper layer , making all information subject to be misused . These information can range from non - encrypted user traffic to network configuration protocol messages . The DoS is easy to detect . Any networking monitoring service will detect that the collision in the network is too high and finally detect the rogue MAC and remove it from the LAN . It is the misuse of information that is most important to tackle . It is very hard to detect a MAC who is attached to a LAN in promiscuous mode , with the intention of stealing and misusing information . User Data protection can be handled by the end to end , application level security protocols ( eg . IPSec ) , but the network configuration is highly desirable to be protected by any eavesdropping . For example , ARP protocol can be very easily compromised . Any MAC can claim to be associated with any IP address . Taking a step further , A MAC can impersonate another MAC and also claim association of an IP address it is not actually associated with . The spanning tree protocol can be disrupted by transmission of malicious information , for example claim of new root bridge , causing it not to converge efficiently or not at all A good compilation of VLAN attacks , including the ones descried above , are explained in this Cisco white paper . http : / / www . cisco . com / en / US / products / hw / switches / ps708 / products_white_paper09186a008013159f . shtml Of course , solution for some attacks is to have physically separate network with trusted components . But in most cases that is practically impossible . MACSec is designed to provide the next possible solution by securing messages present on the physical media . This prevents any rogue node to interpret the message and make use of the information contained in the message . It is important to note that MACSec itself can not operate in itself to provide the promised services . It has to be used in conjunction with appropriate policies for complimentary and higher level protocol , and authentication and authorization framework and network management . IEEE 802.1af provides authentication and cryptographic key distribution framework . Posted by Kishalay Haldar at 05 : 14 2 comments : Email This BlogThis ! Share to Twitter Share to Facebook Share to Pinterest Introduction In this blog I will attempt to explain MACSec from purely technical angle . The IEEE Standard can be a bit confusing if you do not have through knowledge of MAC architecture and misinterpreted , causing non - productivity . By no means it is an attempt to replace the reading and thorough understanding of the 802.1AE standard itself . You can use this blog as a resource that attempts to explain and simplify some concepts and overall architecture , as depicted in the standard . It will be explained step by step over multiple posts , each focused on a specific subject / topic / concept . I hope to conclude the series in 2 week ' s time . Given that time frame , I wo n ' t be able to produce good quality pics for explaining things . I will use pics to explain concepts wherever required , But those pics will likely be hand drawn .

Machine Design brought to you by Technologies > Mechanical Drives Hydrostatic Drives Nov 15 , 2002 Hydrostatic drives are widely recognized as an excellent means of power transmission when variable output speed is required . Typically outperforming mechanical and electrical variable - speed drives and gear - type transmissions , they offer fast response , maintain precise speed under varying loads , and allow infinitely variable speed control from zero to maximum . Unlike gear transmissions , hydrostatics have a continuous power curve without peaks and valleys , and they can increase available torque without shifting gears . But despite the superior performance of hydrostatics , a major drawback has been higher cost compared to their mechanical counterparts . Download this article in .PDF format This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable . Manufacturers , however , continue to boost performance levels , produce smaller and lighter packages , and offer advanced electronic controls . These factors now make hydrostatics an economical choice for many applications . A basic hydrostatic transmission is an entire hydraulic system . It contains pump , motor , and all required controls in one simple package . Such a system provides all the noted advantages of a conventional hydraulic system - - such as stepless adjustment of speed , torque , and power ; plus smooth and controllable acceleration ; ability to be stalled without damage ; and easy controllability - - with the convenience of single - package procurement installation . Early hydrostatic transmissions were intended primarily for low - cost applications such as farm equipment and garden tractors . But improved designs - - particularly in controls - - have made these transmissions suitable for a broad range of applications . As a result , light - duty units ( less than 20 hp ) are being used on equipment such as lawn tractors , golf - course maintenance equipment , and small machine tools ; medium - duty units ( 25 to 50 hp ) on skid - steer loaders , trenchers , harvesters , and other such vehicles ; and heavy - duty transmissions ( approximately 60 hp and higher ) on agricultural and large construction equipment . Part of the reason for the increasing attractiveness of hydrostatic transmissions is improved design of pumps and motors - - particularly higher flow and pressure ratings in a more compact package . For example , several years ago , most pumps could be expected to deliver about 0.125 - gpm flow per pound of pump . Currently available pumps deliver about 0.5 gpm / lb , a 400 % increase . Similarly , older motors provided about 0.5 hp / lb of motor ; new motors provide about 2.5 hp / lb . Performance : Hydrostatic transmissions are commonly available with at least three standards of output performance : Variable - power , variable - torque transmissions are based on a variable - displacement pump supplying a variable - displacement motor . They can provide a combination of constant torque and constant power . These units are adjustable , flexible , and expensive . Constant - torque , variable - power transmissions are based on a variable - displacement pump supplying fluid to a fixed - displacement motor under constant load . Speed is controlled by varying pump delivery . This is considered the best general - purpose drive , with wide speed ranges , up to 42 : 1 , and simple controls . Constant - power , variable - torque transmissions are based on a variable - displacement pump with a power limiter , driving a fixed - displacement motor . The forte of this unit is efficiency , but speed range is usually limited to 4 : 1 . Drive configurations : Hydrostatic transmissions usually take one of two general configurations , split or close coupled . A split transmission consists of a power unit with the hydraulic pump , heat exchanger , filters , valves , and controls mounted on a reservoir . The hydraulic motor is remotely mounted and connected to the power unit through hose or tubing . Split transmissions are typically used in heavy - duty applications because they offer wide flexibility in configuring a system for the most efficient use of space or best weight distribution . Integrated , or close - coupled , transmissions have a hydraulic pump and motor that share a common valving surface . This arrangement provides an extremely short oil - flow path , eliminating high - pressure oil leaks either to the reservoir or to the environment . A cast casing or housing provides a self - contained oil reservoir , structural support for the rotating elements , and heat dissipation . They are usually bolted directly to a mechanical differential axle to form a hydrostatic transaxle . Close - coupled transmissions are typically found in light - duty applications , Transmission sizing : Hydrostatic transmission size normally is based on the corner horsepower of the work function . Corner horsepower is the product of the maximum force and maximum speed required by the function , even though these two conditions rarely occur simultaneously . Corner horsepower for vehicle propulsion is Hc = ( Ft * V ) / 3,600n where Hc = corner horsepower , kW ; Ft = maximum vehicle tractive force , N ; V = maximum vehicle speed , km / h ; and n = final drive efficiency , % . Transmission corner horsepower , Ht , is the product of maximum output torque ( generally at a specified maximum pressure ) and maximum output speed : Ht = ( Tt * N ) / 9,550 : where T = theoretical torque at maximum system pressure , N - m ; t = torque efficiency , % ; and N = maximum transmission speed , rpm . Initial transmission selection is made by comparing the results of these calculations . Selection is refined by considering the effects of duty cycle , final - drive ratio , rolling radius , primer - mover speed , and design life . Electronic controls : Control capabilities for hydrostatic transmissions have advanced from simple remote electrical actuators to packages that offer complete optimization of machine performance . For example , electronics on paving equipment not only controls the transmission , including speed and rate of acceleration and deceleration , but also steering , paving height , rate of material flow , road crown , slope on curves , and so on . While not currently economical for every application , proportional controls offer a reasonable payback in most traction drives and propel systems through fuel savings and increased productivity . Acceptance will quicken when the added benefits in addition to primary control are recognized . One such feature is performance monitoring , another is system diagnostics - - relating when servicing is needed , when failure is imminent , or where a failure has occurred . Such features are relatively easy to add into software because many of the variables needed are already measured for control . Publish our articles on your site . Learn how . . . comments

Thermal expansion Coefficient of superficial expansion Posted on April 19 2015 by admin Leave a comment Coefficient of superficial expansion The amount by which unit area of a material increases when the temperature is raised by one degree is called the coefficient of superficial ie area expansion and is represented by β Greek beta If a material having an initial surface area A 1 at temperature t

Eastern Hemlock Eastern Hemlock ( Tsuga Canadensis ) Background : Although common in a few areas , hemlocks are quite rare across PEI . Many older barns and homes were sided with hemlock boards , but the wood is not as valuable as pine or spruce . No other plant in the province is as rich in tannin , and so hemlock bark was much in demand for tanning leather . Hemlock has a life expectancy of between 300 - 400 years . When large trees fall down , they take a long time to decompose and provide both nutrients and moisture to young seedlings . 1 2 ► Identification : Hemlock is one of our largest native trees , reaching a height of over 22m ( 70 ′ ) and a diameter of 1 - 1.3 m ( 3 - 4 ′ ) . The small , flat needles resemble those of balsam fir , but are smaller and attached to the stem by a small , string - like stalk . The ends of the branches and leader also droop , unlike the balsam fir branches which grow straight out to the end . Because of this characteristic , older hemlock trees have a very round profile when seen Habitat : Often found along streams , hemlock flourishes in areas of high humidity but without standing water . It grows best in rich , well - drained land , growing with yellow birch , sugar maple , red maple , white pine and red spruce . Propagation : Cones can be collected from the tree when ripe in late September and treated the same as red spruce . An easier method is to find a 4 - 10 year - old forest road that has been bulldozed through a stand containing good hemlocks . You will usually find healthy seedlings growing on the roadway . These transplant easily and can go into a shaded nursery bed , at 15 - 30 cm ( 12 ″ ) spacings depending on the size of the seedlings . In a few years you can use these transplants for your forest , Wildlife uses : Hemlock seed is a preferred food for American goldfinch , boreal chickadee , ruffed grouse , pine siskin and red - winged and white - winged crossbills . Many other species of birds and mammals also eat the seeds , and snowshoe hare browse young shoots . Large , old hemlock are used by raccoon for dens and provide cavities and nesting sites for a wide variety of birds . Hemlocks also offer great cover and protection for both small and large birds and at Macphail Woods the largest hemlock contains a hive of honeybees that has overwintered for many Conservation : All efforts should be made to conserve this species , since it has been so heavily harvested on the Island . While it could be selectively harvested from areas that have sufficient amounts of hemlock , these types of woodlands are few and far between . Since it is our most shade tolerant conifer , hemlock is an excellent species for underplanting . After thinning a hardwood or mixed wood stand , plant hemlock at rates of 12 - 25 per hectare ( 5 - 10 per acre ) . The high humidity levels and slightly - opened canopy make Additional Information : Hemlock , like White Pine , at one time was one of the principal species of our native trees but due to fires and cutting , this tree now exists in small isolated areas principally in gullies formed by brooks or rivers . It is one of the largest trees reaching a height of 70 feet or more and a diameter of up to 2 feet . Its best growth is attained mixed with sugar maple and yellow birch , but occurs in pure stands . Around here it is generally mixed with white pine , red and white spruce Historical Information : Although we can not go back in time to see the forests of PEI at the time of settlement by Europeans , we can acquire a reasonable picture by analysis of the written records of that time . This has been achieved by Dr . Doug Sobey in his work “ Early Descriptions of the Forests of Prince Edward Island ” . Many describers of the time indicate that hemlock was a significant component of the island ’ s forests occuring either as single - species pure stands or in association with the island ’ s principal hardwood trees .

Rohan Marley On Losing Lauryn Hill : ‘ I Loved Her So Much and I Faltered In Expressing It ’ February 28 , 2013 | By Jazmine Denise Rogers Former professional football player and son of musical icon Bob Marley , Rohan Marley recently sat down for a very candid interview with OPEN magazine . During the interview , the 40 - year - old entrepreneur spoke very transparently about his relationship with the mother of five of his children , hip hop songstress Lauryn Hill , in addition to his most recent break - up with ex - fiancé and Brazilian model , Isabeli Fontana . Although their 10 - year relationship has come to an end , when it came to discussing his preferences in music , Rohan revealed that he still loves Lauryn ’ s music . He also expressed his regret for not showing Lauryn how much he loved her prior to their split in 2011 . “ I feel sad that I loved her so much and I faltered in expressing it to her somehow . It was my fault that she did not understand how I felt , and it was sad that we did not work out in that relationship sense . I was heartbroken for a long time . ” Rohan , who has remained rather quiet about his relationship with Lauryn over the years , also spoke about the former couple ’ s split in an interview a few months back . “ As a man , there are certain things I do n ’ t accept , and it just so happened that I did n ’ t accept certain things [ in the relationship ] . It does n ’ t mean she ’ s a bad person or I ’ m a bad person . It just did n ’ t work out , ” he said “ [ Our relationship ] is good as in … in terms of being a mother and father to our children , it ’ s good , ” he said . “ It ’ s not as perfect as one might want it to be . It ’ s just the way the road went , ” he continued . During his interview with OPEN magazine , Rohan briefly touched on his recent broken engagement to Isabeli Fontana as well . “ That too did not work out . Now , I am just engaged to myself , ” he says with a laugh , “ It is tough , but we are not to ask ourselves , ‘ Could you be loved ? ’ but to say , ‘ Yes , I am loved ’ . ” While break - ups can be rough , it ’ s great that Rohan is n ’ t all down on himself about them . You live , you learn . What are your thoughts on his explanation regarding his split from Lauryn ? Trending on MadameNoire

Hair Woes : Why I Have Sworn Off Keratin Treatments November 13 , 2013 | By Ezinne Ukoha Exactly a year ago today , I was immersed in a dilemma that involved my overly dry and unruly tresses . I had just released my hair from seven months of braiding after a disastrous affair with a texturizer that involved mismatched Paul Mitchell products and unrelenting breakage . It was time to face the music and dedicate myself to nursing my fragile strands back to health and so I immediately called up my trusted stylist who was back in New York . During my consultation , she announced that she had a remedy and as I took in the Despite the high price point , I gave in because I was desperate for a reprieve and I needed a solution to a problem that was infringing on my ability to function daily . The first time I received the keratin treatment , my hair felt like it had been substituted for someone else ’ s blessing . To illustrate , the process involves working in the treatment into your hair and then flat ironing it in order to for your hair strands to bond with the formula . Then you have to ensure that you keep your hair straight The miracle happened almost immediately for me . My hair was 100 % softer and literally obeyed the wind when I stepped outside and it had a certain amount of luster that I had n ’ t seen in years . As the weeks went by , things only got better , and I was mesmerized by how manageable my hair had become . I was able to rock a wash and go without worrying about frizz or shrinkage . Fast - forward 12 months later and I am singing a very different tune . I got my last keratin treatment this past August and weeks later I noticed that my hair was literally disintegrating before my eyes . It was shedding profusely and my texture had become disturbingly brittle . So I did my research and unearthed some disturbing facts . I found out that keratin treatments are not all natural , they actually do alter your texture and most importantly it contains a key ingredient – formaldehyde . I was absolutely horrified by this fact because formaldehyde is a chemical used to embalm the deceased and even the most limited exposure can increase your risk of cancer . I had this treatment done 3 times , and I did suffer the symptoms associated with exposure and they included , eye irritation , burning sensation in my throat and stuffy If I had known that formaldehyde was involved in this process , I never would have agreed to get a keratin treatment . And yes , some of the salons claim that they have a very small percentage of this deadly chemical but believe me even a drop of it is enough to increases your chances of getting cancer . There are also salons that swear the keratin treatments they offer do n ’ t contain any trace of formaldehyde , but the truth is that you will never know for sure and according to my research , formaldehyde is a vital and active ingredient , and without it , you do n ’ t get the best results . I was forced to undergo the big chop in order to rid myself of the dead hair and coincidently , I am meeting more and more women who have had similar experiences and they are also outraged that they were not privy to how dangerous the keratin treatment can be to your health . The stories start off great because it takes almost a year for your hair to fall apart and then it ends dramatically . If you are considering this treatment please be mindful of the hazardous consequences and tread lightly . As for me , I plan on finding a way to get the word out so that salons are held accountable and forced to warn their clients of the dangers that lie ahead because nothing is worth sacrificing your wellbeing .

MAKE A GROMMET - TOPPED SHOWER CURTAIN September 24 , 2014 by madincrafts 14 Comments This is a sponsored post . I was given free material from Online Fabric Store in exchange for my work , but the opinions are 100 % my own . I did quite a bit of in - store and online shopping for a new shower curtain for our bathroom , and I ran into the same problem I do with most shopping . The curtains that I liked were way too expensive , and the curtains I could afford were kind of ugly . I was a little scared to try making my own grommet - topped shower curtain , but in the end , my cheap nature conquered my fears . MAKE A GROMMET - TOPPED SHOWER CURTAIN Choosing the Right Fabric for a Shower Curtain MY LATEST VIDEOS At the end of June , I asked my facebook fans which of these fabrics they thought would look the best in our upstairs bathroom . The colors in the center square represent the paint color on our new bathroom wall cabinet and the wall paint itself . All of the patterns were slightly out of my comfort zone , which was exactly what I wanted . I wanted the bathroom makeover to have a little bit of punch ! While I got a wide range of responses , more people mentioned liking the bottom right pattern the best . It is probably the safest choice out of all of the fabrics , but it still had enough wow factor to make a visual impact in the room . The fabric is Premiere Prints Feathers Canal slub duck from OnlineFabricStore . net . The fabric is the same weight cotton duck that I used for the window treatment , and it has similar colors . The turquoise , navy , chartreuse , and grey colors ended up being my color scheme for the whole room , even though the wall paint is none of those colors ! How Much Fabric Do You Need to Make a Shower Curtain ? I was very nervous going into this project , not so much because of the sewing but because of the scale of the project . Normally I am a person who likes to be able to lay my projects out on the floor to visualize what I need to do before I do it . I ordered 6 yards of the fabric to make a 78 ” x 80 ” curtain for the shower . That ’ s a lot of fabric . I was petrified that I would cut the fabric wrong and then the whole thing would be ruined . I had to piece two sections of the fabric together to make the curtain wide enough . What if I could n ’ t match the patterns ? What if the whole thing ended up crooked ? I actually put the project off for almost a week because I could n ’ t work up the nerve to start it . I found this tutorial on Good Housekeeping that helped walk me through the steps of sewing the curtain itself . The first thing I did was roll the fabric out and cut 88 ” off the roll . Then matched up the patterns at the top of the fabric and rolled the fabric out again , cutting it slightly longer than the first piece . I wanted to be sure I would be able to match the feather pattern without coming up short at one end or the other . How Do You Sew a Shower Curtain ? After various pinning strategies and some ironing , I was able to line up the pattern fairly well . I sewed the two pieces together , ironed the seam open , and then sewed up and down the seam on either side to make sure the curtain was sturdy enough to be yanked open and closed a few times a day . I measured and cut the fabric 40 ” from the seam on each side of the curtain , placing the seam in the middle of the curtain . Then I created a 1 ” hem on the bottom How Do You Add Grommets to a Shower Curtain ? This is when I realized that I was going to have to do math if I wanted the grommets on the shower curtain to be evenly spaced . I even reached out to my facebook friends to help me with the math , and it took lots of smart , college educated people a good 45 minutes to figure out what the heck to do . So you do n ’ t have to repeat my struggles , here is the formula for spacing your grommets : ( Width of your shower curtain – 2 ” ) / 11 The grommets on either end of the curtain should be spaced 1 ” from the edges of the curtain ( hence the minus 2 ” ) . Shower curtains typically hang from 12 hooks with 11 spaces in between those 12 hooks , so you will divide your “ width minus two ” amount by 11 . For example , my curtain was 78 ” wide . 78 ” – 2 ” = 76 ” and 76 / 11 = slightly less than 7 ” . I spaced my grommets slightly less than 7 ” apart . Finally , I I hate math so much though . I checked out home improvement stores and big box stores for silver tone grommets , but I found the best selection at a craft store . Weird thing though : I found the grommets in the section with the other window treatment supplies ( curtain rods , tie backs , etc . ) BUT I found eyelets in the sewing notions aisle . They are the same size , same materials , same price , just a different name . Oh , and the eyelets were on sale . So , I bought those . Setting grommets is very easy , but you need a grommet kit to do it . A grommet kit comes with 4 different pieces : the setter , the anvil , grommets , and washers . You will need to provide the hammer . Before I could drive the grommets through the fabric , I needed to create a small slit in the fabric where the grommet would be placed . First place a piece of scrap wood on the ground or a very sturdy table , then place the anvil on the wood . The grommet sits on top of the anvil with the small , center tube pointing up . Slip that center tube through the slit in the fabric and slip the washer down over the tube , pointy parts down . Hold the setter in the hole of the grommet and give the setter a few good whacks with your hammer . The grommet should now be fastened together with the fabric in the middle . Repeat with the other 11 grommet holes . Hang the curtain and curtain liner on your shower curtain hooks and admire your work . PS If you do n ’ t use the ball bearing style shower curtain hooks ( affiliate link ) in your bathroom , get on it . They are worth the few extra bucks they cost . Even though there are several other patterns in the space , the shower curtain is the main graphic statement in our bathroom . I am glad I made the decision to make my own curtain , rather than settle for something that I would not have been 100 % happy with ! I ’ ve gathered links to the materials I used in this tutorial . If you purchase after clicking one of these links , I will receive a small commission . Thanks !

http://madisonhardy.com/blog/ArtMID/1469/ArticleID/201/Are-your-invoices-payment-claims
Blog Are your invoices payment claims ? The Construction Contracts Act 2002 sets up a payment scheme for construction projects . 3 December 2015 Author : Sarah Anderson Number of views : 3958 0 Comments By now many builders will have heard of payment claims and are using them . There has been some recent law on payment claims , so whether you ’ re a payment claim newbie or veteran , read on for guidance . Section 20 of the Act says that if you submit a ‘ payment claim ’ ( which really means invoice in a certain form ) , and the client does not respond to it within 20 working days ( unless you have a different timeframe under your contract ) then the amount claimed in the payment claim becomes payable . Similarly , if the client does provide a ‘ payment schedule ’ ( response to your claim which states how much they dispute and why ) , then the amount that is not in dispute becomes payable . What does this mean in practice ? If you have a dispute , the client still is n ’ t likely to pay just because the Act says they have to , however , it does provide you another legal avenue for obtaining payment . At adjudication or in court proceedings if it ever became necessary , the first argument you would make would be that the Construction Contracts Act says payment must be made . For this reason we recommend turning all of your invoices into payment claims . It is essential to get the payment claim perfect , however . The Act is rigid in saying what must be included and recent cases have shown that being attentive to the detail is important . REQUIREMENTS FOR A PAYMENT CLAIM Be in writing Contain sufficient details to identify the construction contract to which the payment relates Identify the construction work and the relevant period to which the payment relates State a claimed amount and the due date for payment Indicate the manner in which the payee calculated the claimed amount Unfortunately it is not as straightforward as stating that a carpenter spent 10 hours at $ 45 / hr during February . This requires a level of detail that allows the client to fully understand exactly what construction work is covered in the payment claim , and how the claim is broken down . A good rule of thumb is to think about an independent person , maybe a judge or your own lawyer . Imagine this person has all of your payment claims for a project , in order , one year after the project is finished ; they State that it is made under the Act For example ‘ this is a payment claim made under the Construction Contracts Act 2002 ’ . There is one other requirement . You must also attach the set form ‘ information that must accompany all payment claims ’ . This used to be a requirement for residential occupiers only , but as of 1 December this year , it needs to be served with all payment claims . If you are using the old form , you will definitely want to update it as there have been some big changes . If you would like some guidance on your payment claim templates , we can assist by reviewing them for you and pointing out any required changes . Assuming that takes no more than an hour , the cost would up to $ 220 + GST . Print Categories : Blog Tags : Sarah Anderson Other posts by Contact author Please login or register to post comments .

in : Vehicles Mad Max : Fury Road vehicles The Gigahorse View source Comments ( 34 ) Share The Gigahorse In a world where there ' s barely one of anything , to show you had power , he ' s the man who ' s got two of everything . – Collin Gibson , production designer is a custom vehicle driven by Immortan Joe Contents show Technical spec The Gigahorse Production Design by Jacinta Leong The vehicle is built from scratch with a powerful and sophisticated drivetrain and highly modified body . The car is built on a custom chassis , with a body made of two 1959 Cadillac Coupe de Villes sitting on top of each other . Body The film ' s original designs called for a turret installed on top of a single Coupe de Ville but , as the production designer Colin Gibson explained : “ In a world where nobody had one of anything , it seemed a fait accompli that he would have a pair of 1959 coupe DeVilles , ” and so the design was changed . Peter Pound - concept artist explains the reasoning for having Coupe DeVilles as the body of The Gigahorse : It ' s the king ' s vehicle so it had to be quite spectacular . That ' s why the ' 59 Cadillac which I always thought represented authority and status . – Peter Pound , Fury Road concept artist The earliest concept of The Gigahorse , then called Warlord Warchariot Very early concept of The Gigahorse aka Warchariot The Gigahorse concept 2001 Gigahorse concept still with a turret Gigahorse concept 2010 , two Coupe DeVille bodies . The Gigahorse final design concept . The bottom shell is widened and equipped with a custom windshield . The upper Cadillac is stock width but has been fabricated to function as a turret with a harpoon gun and a flamethrower in the back . To signify Immortan Joe ' s power and wealth both those guns have wooden finish . The front end is standard 1959 Cadillac equipped with a custom heavy duty plow . The Gigahorse is approximately 4 meters high without the flags and weighs in at 10.5 tonnes . It also appears to have bulletproof glass in the movie . Gigahorse donor car Gigahorse donor car 2 Gigahorse prior to building . Painting The Gigahorse Building the engine bay and front end . Candid production photo Engine and drivertrain That ' s two V8 engines locked together into one shaft . It seriously rocks . When you hear that thing come through . . . Hugh Keays - Byrne The Gigahorse is powered by two Chevrolet 502Cid ( 502Hp ) Big Block V8 crate motors with fabricated manifolds and functioning 8 / 71 superchargers . Both engines are connected through a custom gearbox . Anthony Natoli of Natoli Engineering designed the straight cut gear system joining the two engines . The gearbox adapter was then modeled by the movie ' s art director Jacinta Leong in AutoCAD , all the components were waterjet cut , assembled and originally connected to a Turbo 400 automatic transmission . This transmission had to be rebuilt after each day of filming by the film ' s main mechanic - Mark McKinley . Because of this inconvenience the Turbo 400 was eventually replaced with Allison automatic truck transmission . The engine setup is fully functional generating approximately 1200 horse power . The vehicle also has a non functioning set of turbochargers with their rotors removed and feeding into superchargers . Originally the two engines were supposed to be dummy motors Gigahorse with engine exposed Two V8s joined together . Engine control box Insterting the engine Insterting the engine 2 Adjusting Wheels and suspension The vehicle is equipped with tractor tyres , the rear ones being 70 " in diameter . The rims and hubs are custom made . The differential and reducer systems were taken from a pair of Terex four - wheel drive front - end loaders . The massive hubs gave a 16 : 1 drive ratio for a 95km / h top speed , but according to Collin Gibson The Gigahorse managed speeds up to 125km / h . Appearance on screen When you ' re at the front of your armada in that , there ai n ' t no stopping you . Hugh Keays - Byrne The Gigahorse is first seen in a flashback running over Glory the girl . Then it is seen again shortly after Immortan Joe notices the War Rig went off road with his precious cargo . It is brought on the ground via human - powered elevator platform and ready to pursue Furiosa . The vehicle is driven by Immortan himself , on board is his son - Rictus , his Prime Imperator , a History Woman - Miss Giddy and several other high ranking officers . Final chase * SPOILERS * The vehicle , however is not seen directly engaged in road battle until the final scenes of the movie where it plays part in Immortan Joe ' s demise . Furiosa , approaching the canyon on her way back to The Citadel , tries to ram The Gigahorse off the road ; however , Joe engages the superchargers of The Gigahorse and gets ahead of her . He then brakes hard which further damages the already fatigued engines on the War Rig . Furiosa decides to get on the back of The Gigahorse and throws an explosive javelin into the back door of the vehicle , but it does no damage . Rictus emerges from the back of the vehicle right after and jumps onto the War Rig to snatch Cheedo , who is begging to be taken on board of The Gigahorse . Cheedo then helps Furiosa , who is hanging from the side of the vehicle , to get on board unnoticed . She grabs a harpoon chained to one of the harpoon guns in the back and tries to attack Immortan Joe through the open back door , but she has to face the Prime Imperator first . After defeating him with help of Nux , Furiosa is seen hanging from the side of The Gigahorse with a harpoon in her hand as she tries to make her way towards the driver ' s door of the vehicle . Immortan Joe notices her , rolls down the window and tries to shoot her , but Toast grabs his arm . He punches her in the face , but Furiosa rams the harpoon through the window and knocks the gun out of his hand , then hooks Joe ' s mask and his jaw . " Remember me " she says and drops the chain onto the back wheels of The Gigahorse , which spools the chain and swiftly rips Joe ' s mask off , along with most of his lower jaw . The Gigahorse is then driven by Toast through the passage and by Max into The Citadel with Immortan Joe ' s body wrapped in cloth and put on the steaming hot engine of the vehicle . It is then let on a platform into The Citadel driven by one of the Vuvalini . Trivia Early concept art reveals The Gigahorse with standard tank - like turret , which was later replaced by another Cadillac body . Joining two engines together with custom gearbox was quite an engineering feat , and was proven to have issues with cooling . A total of four Cadillacs were shipped from the US and used for building the Gigahorse and its duplicate . One of those Cadillacs was a sedan , as opposed to three coupe ' s . The sedan was used as bottom Cadillac in one of Gigahorse ' s . The easiest way to spot it is by the rear wing , which is smaller when compared to coupe Cadillacs . The Gigahorse ' s size proved to be problematic in transport . Shocks had to be lowered and wheels replaced each time the vehicle was transported . Among many vehicle badges found on the dashboard of this vehicle there is an MFP police badge .

MadSci Network : Medicine Re : How much semen does a average man can produce in his lifetime Well Andrew , talk about world record requests ! There is a relatively good website on questions such as yours . This is http : / / www . sexualrecords . com . 1 ) Seminal volume : Human males produce approximately 0.4 ml of seminal plasma each day of abstinance . The average ejaculate measured in 1300 volunteers is 3.2 + / - 1.4 ml as reported by Dr . Aquiles Sombrero in The Journal of Fertility and Sterility . Maximal volumes of 10 - 11 ml have been recorded . As abstinance continues , seminal volume will be resorbed by the male reproductive tract . This insures that the semen is of good quality at ejaculation . There is really no definitive way to answer the question of how much Try the links in the MadSci Library for more information on Medicine

MadSci Network : Anatomy Re : PSI needed to break the weakest bone in the body ? Dear Hannah , According to BBC science and Nature ( http : / / www . bbc . co . uk / science / humanbody / body / factfiles / leg / leg_and_foot . shtml ) , " Your leg bones are the longest and strongest bones in your body . When you stand or walk , all the weight of your upper body rests on them . Each leg is made up of four bones . The three long bones are your femur , your tibia and your fibula . The fourth bone is your small patella , which is better known as the kneecap . " Your femur , or thighbone , is the largest bone in your body . The head of your femur fits into your hip socket and the bottom end connects to your knee . The two bones beneath your knee that make up your shin are your tibia and fibula . Your upper and lower leg are connected by a hinge joint . Your patella , or kneecap , rests on the front of your femur . " The bones of your leg have roughened patches on their surfaces where muscles are attached . When your muscles contract , they pull the bone they ' re attached to , making your leg move . " This is confirmed by a book on forensic Anthropology ( http : / / www - personal . une . edu . au / ~ pbrown3 / skeleton . pdf ) , which took its sources from , Warwick , R . and Williams , P . 1973 .

The strength of a bone is proportional to its size as all bones are made of the same material . Therefore the femur ( thigh bone ) being the longest is also the strongest and the tiny ossicles found in the inner ear ( the stapes being the smallest , are the weakest . The strongest material in the human body , however , is tooth enamel ( Ross et al . p245 ) . The force needed to break a human femur is about 1700 PSI or over 1 million kilograms per square meter ( according to emedicine http : / / emedicine . medscape . com ) which agrees with numerous other sources around the internet . Note that it is the force per unit area that is quoted so it depends on how much the force is spread out . A sharp edge would need a much smaller force than a blunt one . Assuming we can scale the force down to the size of the stapes which is about 3mm wide , with the typical femur width of 3cm , this would mean a pressure of 170 PSI ( 100,000 kilograms per square meter ) would be enough to ' break ' the stapes . Assuming the stapes to be about 10 square mm in One newton is equivalent to the force of a small apple when dropped . Luckily our stapes is encased inside our skull and is very rarely broken , even in head injuries . Using similar estimations it would require a force of a thousand Newtons to break a femur , thats about the weight of a small car . Please look at the websites quoted , some of them are very interesting and I enjoyed looking through them very much . I hope this clears up your confusion !

Ranking Ixalans Mythic Rares Adam Yurchick 9142017 110000 AM Ixalan is well on its way to being completely spoiled and beyond the pirates and dinosaurs what sticks out to me is the high power of the mythic rares weve seen so far Its important to figure out how to best use these cards whether it is in Standard Modern Commander or beyond Today Ill work on doing that by analyzing what exactly these cards do where they fit and how we might make the most of them Ive ranked them in order of their likelihood to see Standard play but more important is the details behind the rankings 14 Boneyard Parley Mid Low Boneyard Parley 070 020 Store QTY Price GamersOnlyCharleston 1 020 OGREs Cards 1 020 Ye Olde Spells 1 021 Fast Paced Trade 1 023 Exiled Games 5 023 Tabletop Game Swap 3 024 Glory Bringers 3 025 Tabletop Game Swap 2 025 EJdistro 1 025 BlackLotusGo 4 025 Boneyard Parley can Reanimate creatures from both graveyards so it has a lot of power and its always going to at least Reanimate one creature you really want but the seven mana to play it is hardly better than just casting a creature in the first place The biggest draw to reanimation historically has been cheating on mana cost and getting a huge creature into play ahead of schedule and Boneyard Parley doesnt really accomplish that Its a suitable replacement to the Ever After that is rotating out of Standard but that card didnt see much play in the first place It looks like a fun card for casual play but its not going to cut it in competitive formats 13 Overflowing Insight Mid Low Overflowing Insight 062 010 Store QTY Price EZ Collectibles 1 019 NW Games 1 025 Bears in Fayettville 1 038 The Game Shoppe 2 039 OmahaMTG321 2 040 Atomic Hobby Shop 1 040 Multiverse CG 1 040 Good Games USA 1 042 The Rogue Games 1 045 OldSchoolGaming 1 045 I have a hard time seeing Overflowing Insight making an impact in Standard when blue already has two other very good topend cards Pull from Tomorrow and Torrential Gearhulk Both of these options are more flexible throughout the game especially as instants compared to the sorcery Overflowing Insight so I think that leaves it out in the cold Overflowing Insight does seem strong in Commander play and its the the perfect kind of card to abuse with effects that can play spells for free like Narset Enlightened Master but I dont see much competitive potential 12 Tishana Voice of Thunder Mid Low Tishana Voice of Thunder 156 085 Store QTY Price JAF Comics 2 085 OGREs Cards 1 095 Good Games USA 1 098 Tier Zero Gaming 1 099 The Loaded Die 1 099 Math n Stuff 1 100 PageThreesGamezone 1 100 Wonderland Market 1 100 Academy 2 100 Zulus Games 1 101 Tishana Voice of Thunder has a lot of abilities but none that make it look like a great Standard card It would be a good topend in a deck that floods the battlefield with creatures and can generate a lot of mana possibly as a payoff for a Growing Rites of Itilmoc deck but that doesnt scream competitive In Modern and Legacy Tishana Voice of Thunder competes with Regal Force but it could be reasonable alternative in a deck that can easily make blue mana because it can hold onto extra cards past seven and potentially be larger than a 55 and triggering from nongreen creatures as well means its better in decks that arent monogreen Its most likely home is in Commander as a payoff for creature decks and possibly as a Commander itself 11 Admiral Beckett Brass Mid Low Admiral Beckett Brass 075 025 Store QTY Price Tier Zero Gaming 6 033 The Magic Corner 1 034 The Rogue Games 1 034 Ronson Big Card 1 035 RandB Games Inc 1 035 Brush Sales 3 035 Exiled Games 2 035 Good Games USA 1 036 Chicagoland Games 1 036 Chicagoland Games 1 036 Admiral Beckett Brass is useful as a lord creature for Pirates but its ability to gain control of permanents seems a bit winmore since any game where you have the card plus three Pirates hitting the opponent is likely to be a victory anyways Theres also the issue that threemana decks become much more difficult with Ixalan so its likely the best Pirate decks will be restricted to two colors which leaves Admiral Beckett Brass on the sidelines I see the legendary creature as being tailormade as a Commander for Pirate decks where it will enable Commander players to include all of the best Pirate cards across three colors 10 Star of Extinction Mid Low Star of Extinction 941 450 Store QTY Price Game Haven St George 1 104 Chillzone 1 450 BlackLotusGo 4 688 ChaosMtG 1 700 IMP Gaming 1 780 Brighthearth Cards 1 780 Wights Lair 1 784 Boardwalk cardstore 1 790 The Eternal Squirrel 1 800 Hero Comix 1 800 Star of Extinction is an effective battlefield sweeper that should destroy every creature in play but its seven mana cost means its not really competitive compared to cheaper options like Hour of Devastation or Fumigate Destroying a land as well is certainly nice but creature lands leaving Standard means the best targets for this will be either lands enchanted with Gift of Paradise or ideally the new cycle of legendary enchantment flip cards that transform into lands The power of this new land cycle means that Star of Extinction could have some potential use in Standard so I am not completely counting it out but the burden is on it to prove itself Star of Extinction does seem fun in Modern where it could combine with Boros Reckoner or Stuffy Doll to kill the opponent and well certainly see these combos come up in more casual play 9 Dire Fleet Ravager Mid Low Dire Fleet Ravager 079 025 Store QTY Price Fair trade tcg 1 025 mccaslin 1 027 Battlegrounds Games 1 027 Cards N MO 1 030 OmahaMTG321 1 035 The Game Shoppe 1 038 The Gypsies Den 1 041 Mulligans Gaming 4 044 Showtime Cards 4 045 Good Games USA 2 047 Dire Fleet Ravager generates value when it enters play by taking a large chunk of the opponents lifetotal but the ability being symmetrical is a liability if playing against another aggressive deck Beyond that its a large threat with Menace and difficult to profitably stop because of deathtouch so its going to take both blockers down with it I could see it being played at the topend of a Pirate deck but weakness against cards like Glorybringer and Chandra Torch of Defiance and it generally being a bit too small for the cost means its a longshot 8 Jace Cunning Castaway Mid Low Jace Cunning Castaway 281 126 Store QTY Price Quick Cards LLC 1 126 ElfMage 1 137 mtgmintcard 8 149 LegacyGamingAndMore 1 195 Big Daddy Games LLC 2 198 Optimum Cards 4 199 Psycho Turtle Games 1 199 GamersOnlyCharleston 1 199 Mystic Minotaur 1 199 Hero Comix 1 200 Jace Cunning Castaway is one of the most highprofile cards in Ixalan but its not as obviously powerful as its predecessors The 1 ability of turning creatures into looters for the turn is useful but its not overwhelmingly strong because its never really going to amass card advantage just an increase in card quality What seems like the primary ability on the Planeswalker is the 2 ability to generate a 22 Illusion Token 22 creatures with a drawback for three mana arent exactly constructed playable but leaving behind a Planeswalker is a nice upside if the opponent cant immediately destroy it A couple turns later the Planeswalker can generate another token so eventually it will generate the advantage necessary to make it a strong play but a lot has to go right I can see Jace Cunning Castaway as a roleplayer in Standard but it seems that Wizards made an effort to ensure this Jace isnt as broken as some of its predecessors One place that it looks very fun and potentially powerful is with Anointed Procession which can double the effect of the ultimate ability and then double the effect of each of their 2 abilities so it will convert into eight 22 tokens 7 Huatli Warrior Poet Mid Low Huatli Warrior Poet 299 115 Store QTY Price FuriousFishSells 1 115 ElfMage 1 186 Zombrick 1 200 Untap MTG 1 200 The Next Level Games 1 200 Game On BD 1 200 Zulus Games 2 204 Good Games USA 2 209 The Gypsies Den 1 211 Immortals Inc 1 212 Huatli Warrior Poet has a lot of potential in a dinosaur deck where all of its abilities will be useful Creating a stream of 33 dinosaur tokens is a very solid goto ability even if it doesnt generate loyalty The 2 ability to gain life will often be weak but against aggressive decks in racing situations it will be great and that could be relevant given that the top deck initially is likely to be the very aggressive monored deck Whats really interesting is the X ability which not only can destroy opposing creatures or turn off blockers but can be cashed in Enrage ability on dinosaurs like Ripjaw Raptor and Raging Raptors 6 Vona Butcher of Magan Mid Low Vona Butcher of Magan 298 150 Store QTY Price quacktcg 1 150 CatacombCards 1 200 Good Games USA 1 215 Game Haven St George 1 222 GreyTest Games 2 224 Black Tigers 1 230 WBG Dungeon 1 230 Kingdom Geekdom 1 234 Huscarl Hobbies 1 236 Gamers Guild 1 241 Vona Butcher of Magan looks like the kind of card that can completely take over a game if its unanswered Tapping to destroy any nonland permanent is extremely powerful and while seven life is quite the expense Vona Butcher of Magan helps pay for it itself by being a fourpower lifelink creature that will gain back over half the cost Adding vigilance to the mix allows the card to attack and use its ability on the same turn so once any relevant blockers are cleared out it will effectively be destroying permanents for just three life all the while killing the opponent Being a Vampire makes it even better because of the tribal implications but Vona Butcher of Magan looks effective in any deck that can cast it I like its Standard prospects and while Modern is probably a stretch its going to be a casual favorite and a card to build around in Commander 5 Wakening Suns Avatar Mid Low Wakening Suns Avatar 129 068 Store QTY Price The Midwest Kai 1 074 ElfMage 1 082 PairADice Games 1 092 Good Games USA 1 092 Snapcasters Gaming 3 097 Frankobaby 1 099 thefunkyfruitstand 2 099 thefunkyfruitstand 2 099 CompGamingUniverse 1 099 Midnyte Mythics 1 099 Wakening Suns Avatar has a very powerful effect of sweeping the battlefield and it reminds me very much of Myojin of Cleansing Fire which destroys everything else while remaining in play itself Like the Myojin Wakening Suns Avatar has to be cast from hand to activate the sweeper ability and thats very restrictive especially when the most obvious place to put the card is next to Gisath Suns Avatar That said Wakening Suns Avatar could find a home in the same deck as Gisath Suns Avatar as an additional topend card to cast especially because it would leave the rest of its controllers dinosaurs in play and theoretically only sweep the opponents side of the battlefield if they arent playing dinosaurs themselves 4 Rowdy Crew Mid Low Rowdy Crew 077 015 Store QTY Price The Perfect Hands 1 015 Great Lakes Games 1 015 Ronson Big Card 2 020 RagnarokWolfe 1 020 Roland CCGs 1 021 Tier Zero Gaming 5 021 Fast Paced Trade 1 022 Omega Card Games 1 023 Omega Card Games 4 024 Groggs Club 4 024 Rowdy Crew hasnt seen much love but I see a lot of potential for this mythic pirate Its ability to gain counters is going to win games but I think its best analyzed without this ability and the assumption that it will just be a 33 with occasional upside Drawing three cards and discarding two comes with card advantage locked in so its somewhat like a Rogue Refiner but the loot ability can potential upgrade a weak card in hand to a better one With careful play and deckbuilding Rowdy Crew will often effectively generate two new cards and thats a big deal for a red deck thats hungry for them Rowdy Crew is poor when holding powerful cards like Glorybringer so it will be best suited at the topend of a lowcurve aggressive deck Its also potentially excellent alongside GodPharaohs Gift as a way to fuel the graveyard and power up Gate to the Afterlife and that could be relevant given that the deck almost completely survives rotation It does compete with Hazoret the Fervent and Chandra Torch of Defiance so its not really ideal for the current build of MonoRed but it will find a home somewhere 3 Gisath Suns Avatar Mid Low Gishath Suns Avatar 306 125 Store QTY Price Sportsamerica 1 150 Carbon Based Games 1 175 thefunkyfruitstand 1 199 thefunkyfruitstand 1 199 Exiled Games 1 199 Cards N MO 1 199 Good Games USA 1 213 BlackLotusGo 4 215 ChaosMtG 1 225 ElfMage 1 225 Gishath Suns Avatar is the king of Ixalan s dinosaurs Sitting at the topend of a dedicated dinosaur deck will allow it to generate a massive advantage if it connects with the opponent so its the sort of card worth building around Eight mana is certainly a lot to pay but its worth the cost if it can connect It has been discussed as a possible replacement for Ulamog the Ceaseless Hunger as the new best thing to ramp into and with plenty of strong cards to ramp into dinosaurs I Foresee this being the case Dinosaurs seem pushed in power level and are slated for competitive Standard play and Gisath Suns Avatar is going to play a role in that 2 Vraska Relic Seeker Mid Low Vraska Relic Seeker 986 539 Store QTY Price JAF Comics 1 539 Ryans Comics 1 549 InsomniaTCG 1 549 Grenmasters Goods 1 575 Zombrick 1 575 Showtime Cards 2 599 Bees Games 1 600 LegacyGamingAndMore 2 625 Funkatronic Rex 1 639 Good Games USA 2 640 Theres a high bar set for sixmana Planeswalkers in Standard but I believe Vraska Relic Seeker sits somewhere between Elspeth Suns Champion which defined Standard during its tenure and Sorin Grim Nemesis a competitive Planeswalker that was at various times part of top decks during its run in Standard One advantage Vraska Relic Seeker has over those Planeswalkers is its higher loyalty and it gets even higher over time with its 2 ability compared to their 1 Creating one 22 token isnt as good as three 11 tokens from Elspeth Suns Champion but on the flipside its 3 ability is more efficient and effective than the X ability of Sorin Grim Nemesis The potential to be cashed in to destroy two cards in a row over two turns is strong as seen with Karn Liberated in Modern and the ability even has the upside of creating a treasure token Its ultimate ability isnt extremely appealing but it will almost beat an opponent by itself and will likely win the game so it comparable to the gamewinning ultimate of Elspeth Suns Champion It all combines to create a very competitive Planeswalker that looks like it will be a part of Standard if it can find the right home 1 Carnage Tyrant Mid Low Carnage Tyrant 3013 2436 Store QTY Price Got Games OKC 1 1400 Game Haven 1 1600 Good Games USA 1 2326 The Eternal Squirrel 1 2500

Its abilities jump off the page being an uncounterable hexproof threat that leaves the opponent with little recourse besides casting a sweeper or deploying blockers Its stats a massive 76 body even avoids the Hour of Devastation that is one of Standards most important sweepers and its going to take quite the defense to actually stand up to it in combat It even comes with trample so chump blocking isnt an option Carnage Tyrant also benefits from being a dinosaur so you can be certain it will be at home in all sorts of Dinosaur decks It will fight with Savage Stomp be given haste by Regisaur Alpha ramped into by Otepec Huntmaster and put into play by Gishath Suns Avatar Carnage Tyrant is a perfect way to fight against control decks so it could be in the sideboard of any sort of green deck I could even see Carnage Tyrant making its way into Modern as a bigger and badder Thrun the Last Troll It would be a great tutor target for Summoners Pact for example in an Amulet Titan or Titan Breach deck Ixalan s mythics bring a handful of great cards to Standard and plenty to look forward to for the casual crowd When mythic rares were first created they were said to be intended as big splashy cards and not focused on competitive staples Wizards went against that by making many of the most important Standard cards mythics and created Standard formats with decks much more expensive than anything that had seen before It looks like things have started to come in the other direction so hopefully Ixalan is a sign of things to come There are still a few more mythics left to be spoiled so stay tuned to TCGplayercom for details Adam

I AM LIVING A PURPOSEFUL LIFE How to Verify and Check Windows 8 , Windows 7 or Vista Activation Status ( Retail , KMS or MAK ) by mahaar92 Posted by Muhammad Ahmad Thursday , 22 November 2012 Image via CrunchBase All versions and editions of Windows 7 , windows 8 and Windows Vista has to be activated , including copies of Windows 7 and Windows Vista licenses acquired through either retail or volume licensing channels . Although by default the Windows operating system can run for free for 30 days ( extendable to 120 days with rearm ) as evaluation or trial period , however without proper activation , end - users will be kept reminded with frequent messages to activate the system , and the system may be unusable if not activated post activation - free period expiry date . Thus , it ’ s important to ensure that the Windows 7 or Vista is activated , especially for machine that requires repetitive activation tokens at regular interval , such as Windows operating system activated with KMS ( Key Management Server ) for large corporations on volume licensing agreements . In case you want to check and verify the activation status of Windows 7 or Windows Vista , here ’ s the way to check and see the Windows Vista or Windows 7 activation status . The trick works on any versions of Windows 7 and Vista , regardless of activation method , including retail product key , KMS or MAK ( Multiple Activation Key ) . Type cmd or Command Prompt in Start Menu , then right click on the first result ( cmd . exe or Command Prompt ) and select Run as administrator to open a Command Prompt window in elevated privilege mode . Alternatively , go to Start Menu - > Accessories and locate Command Prompt Click on “ Yes ” if the User Account Control prompts for confirmation . Enter one of the following commands , and hit Enter to execute : slmgr - xpr slmgr - dli slmgr - dlv The resulting dialog box will display the activation status of the system , with either a text description such as “ The machine is permanently activated ” or via License Status entry , where “ Licensed ” means activated . SLMgr ( or SLMgr . vbs ) is a VBscript built - in with Windows 7 and Vista as Software Licensing Manager , a tool that manages product activation , license and product key . It ’ s a command line utility , and hence the need of DOS console . Alternatively , user can just check on the System Properties in Windows ’ s GUI ( graphical user interface ) by following these steps : Open Start Menu , and right click on Computer Select Properties on the right click context menu .

Maharishi has organized the thousands - of - years - old scattered Vedic Literature into a perfect science and has revealed that Veda and its literature is not a collection of ancient books or man - made philosophies , but rather is infinite knowledge with infinite organizing power . Its source is the most fundamental level of Nature ' s intelligence , identified by quantum physicists as the Unified Field of Natural Law , which Maharishi has brought to light as the Unified Field of Consciousness . The Unified Field of Consciousness is an infinite field of pure intelligence — ' one unbounded ocean of consciousness in motion ' , moving within itself , creating a dynamic structure within its eternal silence . This structure is vibrancy of Supreme Intelligence in the form of sound , expressing itself in the forms and phenomena of the universe throughout all eternity of time and space . It is these sounds that are the most basic value of the Laws of Nature administering creation . The discovery of the Unified Field of Consciousness and its structuring dynamics within every man represents the most significant finding of our time — indeed of any time — for as Maharishi points out , through proper use of the sounds of the Veda and Vedic Literature , the total potential of Natural Law and the total potential of human life is available to us . Maharishi ' s Technologies of Consciousness : Maharishi ' s Transcendental Meditation and TM - Sidhi Programme Maharishi ' s Vedic Science includes technologies to bring individual and collective life in harmony with Natural Law and raise every area of life to perfection . Foremost among these is Maharishi ' s Transcendental Meditation and TM - Sidhi Programme including Yogic Flying — the most direct way for the fulfilment of the supreme philosophy of life , where the individual lives life in enlightenment and breathes life in Cosmic Reality . This profound technology enables the awareness to effortlessly and naturally settle to its least excited state , the transcendental field underlying all of creation — and thereby to actualize the highest Vedic ideals of life . Over 600 scientific studies , conducted during the past forty years at more than 200 independent research institutions in 30 countries , validate the immense benefits of Maharishi Transcendental Meditation and TM - Sidhi Programme for the individual and all areas of society , including health , education , business , industry , rehabilitation , defence , agriculture , and government . Now , if progress in science is to continue , research has to be in the field of consciousness , the field of pure subjectivity , and the approach has to be subjective or self - referral . My Transcendental Meditation and TM - Sidhi Programme offers that desirable subjective approach to research in the field of consciousness , the field of pure subjectivity , the self - referral Unified Field of Natural Law , whose scope ranges from point to infinity . ' Infinite is the scope of possibilities for everyone individually , and every nation collectively , through my Vedic Science and Technology , which is the science and technology of the self - interacting dynamics of consciousness — the Science and Technology of the Constitution of the Universe . — Maharishi Celebrating Perfection in Education — Dawn of Total Knowledge ( 196 - page publication ) Maharishi ' s Vedic Mathematics , Mathematics of the Absolute Number — the field of Unity , taught in Maharishi ' s schools and universities throughout the world and adopted by other institutions of higher learning in many countries , is a major contribution to the field of knowledge which immeasurably enriches all approaches to gaining knowledge — ancient and modern : All streams of knowledge studied today in modern science must be studied in terms of Vedic Science in order that the knowledge of modern science can be spontaneously utilized in all the different aspects of daily life and living . ' Modern Mathematics is the field of steps , whereas Vedic Mathematics is the field of pure intelligence that gets what it wants instantly without steps . It is the field of infinite correlation , the field of simultaneity of all steps , because it functions in the frictionless field of infinite correlation — the field of self - referral intelligence . ' Vedic Mathematics is a field completely beyond mistakes , because it is the display of absolute , fully awake intelligence , the state of enlightenment . Its cosmic status is displayed in the absolute order of the infinite creativity that spontaneously maintains diversity of the universe . — Maharishi Maharishi ' s Absolute Theory of Defence ( 668 - page publication ) Download PDF Version Read More about Maharishi ' s Vedic Science and Technologies of Consciousness Scientific Research Maharishi ' s Books Links for Maharishi ' s Vedic Science : • India ' s Timeless Vedic Heritage : Meeting the Challenges of Our Modern Age by Dr John Hagelin : download PDF file — on pages 8 – 12 of Maharishi in the World Today : Six Articles • Institute for Science , Technology , and Public Policy : www . istpp . org • Journal of Modern Science and Vedic Science : http : / / mum . edu / msvs • ' Maharishi ' s Absolute Number : The Mathematical Theory and Technology of Everything ' , published in the journal of Modern Science and Vedic Science , Vol . 7 , No . 1 ( 1997 ) : http : / / www . mum . edu / pdf / msvs / v07 / number . pdf • Modern Science and Vedic Science : An Introduction by Kenneth Chandler , ( Originally published in Modern Science and Vedic Science Volume 1 , NO . 2 , p . v - xxvi ) : www . mum . edu / msvs / Chandler1 . html • Maharishi University of Management - B.A. in Vedic Science : www . mum . edu / mvsba / • Maharishi University of Management - M.A. in Vedic Science : www . mum . edu / mvsma / • Maharishi University of Management - Ph .

History of Sri Lanka About Mahavamsa | Mahavamsa Chapters | Mahavamsa Simplified Sri Lanka , officially the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka . known as Ceylon before 1972 is an island nation in South Asia , located about 31 kilometers ( 18½ mi ) off the southern coast of India . Originally known as Heladiva , it is home to around twenty million people . Sri Lanka is a strategic naval link between West Asia and South East Asia and has been a centre of Buddhist religion and culture from ancient times . Today , Sri Lanka is a multi - religious and multi - ethnic nation , with a fifth of the population following faiths other than Buddhism – notably Hinduism , Christianity and Islam . The Sinhalese community forms the majority of the population ( around 78 % ) , with Tamils , who are mostly concentrated in the north and east of the island , forming the largest ethnic minority . Other Island has a pleasant tropical climate and average temperature of the low lands ranges between 25 - 30 degrees Celsius . Famous for the production and export of tea , coffee , rubber and coconuts , Sri Lanka boasts a progressive and modern industrial economy . The natural beauty of Sri Lanka ’ s tropical forests , beaches and landscape , as well as its rich cultural heritage make it a world famous tourist destination . Sri Lanka ’ s Per Capita GDP is presently US $ 900 – the highest in South Asia and the Literacy rate is 92 % – the highest in South Asia and second highest in Asia . According to the Economic Intelligence Unit ( EIU ) Forecast 1998 , Sri Lanka ’ s Business Environment ranks 11th in the region , and 42nd in the world , ahead of India , China , Indonesia , Vietnam and Pakistan . After over two thousand years of rule by local kingdoms , parts of Sri Lanka were colonized by Portugal and the Netherlands beginning in the 16th century , before the control of the entire country was ceded to the British Empire in 1815 . During World War II Sri Lanka served as an important base for Allied forces in the fight against the Japanese Empire . A nationalist political movement arose in the country in the early 20th century , with the aim of obtaining political independence , which was eventually granted by the British after peaceful negotiations in 1948 Naming of Sri Lanka Known as Lamka , Lankadeepa , taprobane . . etc In ancient times , Sri Lanka was known by a variety of names : ancient Greek geographers called it Taprobane and Arabs referred to it as Serendib ( the origin of the word “ serendipity ” ) . Ceilão was the name given to Sri Lanka by the Portuguese when they arrived on the island in 1505 , which was transliterated into English as Ceylon . In 1972 , the official name of the country was changed to “ Free , Sovereign and Independent Republic of Sri Lanka ” whereas the island itself is referred to as lank ? va The current name is derived from Sanskrit word lamk ? , meaning “ resplendent land ” , which was also the name of the island as described in the ancient Indian epics Mahabharata and the Ramayana . Brief History Paleolithic human settlements have been discovered at excavations in several cave sites in the Western Plains region and the South - western face of the Central Hills region . Anthropologists believe that some discovered burial rites and certain decorative artifacts exhibit similarities between the first inhabitants of the island and the early inhabitants of Southern India . Recent bioanthropological studies have however dismissed these links , and have placed the origin of the people to the northern parts of India . One of the first written references to the island is found in the Indian epic Ramayana , which described The earliest - known inhabitants of the island now known as Sri Lanka were probably the ancestors of the Wanniyala - Aetto people , also known as Veddahs and numbering roughly 3,000 . Linguistic analysis has found a correlation of the Sinhalese language with the languages of the Sindh and Gujarat , although most historians believe that the Sinhala community emerged well after the assimilation of various ethnic groups . Dravidian people may have begun migrating to the island from the pre - historic period . From the ancient period date some remarkable archaeological sites including the ruins of Sigiriya Since ancient times Sri Lanka was ruled by monarchs , most notably of the Sinha royal dynasty that lasted over 2000 years . The island was also infrequently invaded by South Indian kingdoms and parts of the island were ruled intermittently by the Chola dynasty , the Pandya dynasty , the Chera dynasty and the Pallava dynasty . The island was also invaded by the kingdoms of Kalinga ( modern Orissa ) and those from the Malay Peninsula . Buddhism arrived from India in the 3rd century BCE , brought by Bhikkhu Mahinda , who is believed to have been Sri Lanka had always been an important port and trading post in the ancient world , and was increasingly frequented by merchant ships from the Middle East , Persia , Burma , Thailand , Malaysia , Indonesia and other parts of Southeast Asia . The islands were known to the first European explorers of South Asia and settled by many groups of Arab and Malay merchants . A Portuguese colonial mission arrived on the island in 1505 headed by the Lourenço de Almeida the son of Francisco de Almeida . At that point the island consisted of three kingdoms , European colonists established a series of tea , cinnamon , rubber , sugar , coffee and indigo plantations . The British also brought a large number of indentured workers from Tamil Nadu to work in the plantation economy . The city of Colombo was established as the administrative centre , and the British established modern schools , colleges , roads and churches that brought Western - style education and culture to the native people . Increasing grievances over the denial of civil rights , mistreatment and abuse of natives by colonial authorities gave rise to a struggle for independence in Following the war , popular pressure for independence intensified . On February 4 , 1948 the country won its independence as the Commonwealth of Ceylon . Don Stephen Senanayake became the first Prime Minister of Sri Lanka . In 1972 , the country became a republic within the Commonwealth , and the name was changed to Sri Lanka . On July 21 , 1960 Sirimavo Bandaranaike took office as prime minister , and became the first female head of government in post - colonial Asia and the first female prime minister in the world . The island enjoyed good relations

Successful major giving efforts result from collaboration among an organization ' s management , its professional development staff , and leadership volunteers . If any one of these three elements is missing , the program will not reach its full potential . Thus , it is critical at the outset that all three players understand their roles and responsibilities and respect those of the others . Roles and Responsibilities Attributes of Successful CEOs Attributes of Successful Major Giving Officers Attributes of a Successful Development Program Defining Success Importance of Volunteers Volunteer Organization — Community Licensees Volunteer Organization — Institutional Licensees Identify , Recruit , and Evaluate Leadership Volunteers Strengthening the Station ' s Firewall Roles and Responsibilities The CEO , Board volunteers , and senior development staff work together to strategize , design , implement , and evaluate the major giving program . Like most aspects of station operations , all staff share responsibility for their pieces of the puzzle that make the program successful . Each staff member shares the responsibilities of championing the case for support for the station , stewardship for the services provided to the community , and engagement with the listeners , members , community partners , and donors . An additional aspect of this responsibility , in line with philanthropy and major - giving cultivation , are opportunities for engagement with prospective listeners , members , community partners , and donors who are intentionally engaged . The General Manager / CEO : Personifies the organization and , through stewardship activities , gives donors the assurance that their gifts will be wisely spent . In partnership with the Development Team , the CEO sets the overall vision and strategy for the major - giving program . As part of LFP , the CEO receives coaching , support , and access to resources to help them frame their vision , invest resources , shape , infrastructure , and begin the early stages of implementation of the major giving program . Leads the process of building the case for support for the station , framing not only the broadcast programming and services for which the station is known , but the broad range of services and value for the community uniquely offered by public media and the station . Actively participates as the senior development officer , helping to identify , cultivate , secure , and steward gifts . Through stewardship activities , gives donors the assurance that their gifts will be wisely invested in service to the community and responsibly and ethically managed . Leads the board volunteers in developing strategy for identifying , cultivating , and securing gifts , and developing metrics for evaluation and assessment of philanthropic efforts . Volunteer Leaders : As board members — review and approve all major and planned giving policies , make sure that they are carried out , and protect the donor ' s investment in the station by ensuring sound financial management . As board members and outside volunteers — take ownership of the organization as a community resource , ensuring that it reaches its full potential . As board members and outside volunteers — extend the station ' s circle of friends by helping to identify , cultivate , secure , and steward gifts from others in the community . Assist in identifying philanthropic objectives aligned with the strategic plan . Evaluate major gift and other philanthropic progress as components of overall fiscal accountability for the station . New Hampshire Public Television Granite Society Advisory Committee job description ( PDF , 17KB ) WFYI Donor Relations Subcommittee job description ( PDF , 98KB ) KPBS Advisory Council job description ( PDF , 24KB ) Development Director : Advocates for sound , ethical development practice within the organization . Creates a donor - centered environment that emphasizes the mission of the station and service to the community . The development director has an additional duty , to coordinate development activities and resolve conflicts among them to ensure that donors with greater potential are promoted to greater levels of investment and involvement . This role is vital to identifying and upgrading those with major gift potential , and it is essential during a capital campaign , during which the " best donors " are usually asked to make a special gift . In coordination with the major gifts officer , facilitates the activities of the CEO to assure that time spent with current and prospective major donors is a quality contact that reports on stewardship of gifts in service to the community and develops partnerships to further those services . Development / Major Giving Officers : Advocate for , establish , and maintain the major giving as well as all fundraising , philanthropy , and development programs . Conduct planning , donor research , and strategy to enable leadership volunteers to assist in the major giving effort . Play an active role in donor stewardship to promote the relationships on which major gifts are based . Provide expertise as a fundraising professional to assist the CEO in setting continuous goals and objectives for the development program and overseeing daily operations , record - keeping , etc . Thus , development officers primarily facilitate the work of others , though they can and do make actual gift asks , if volunteers are uncomfortable doing so . The CEO serves as the public face of the station , the person to whom donors entrust their gifts for stewardship . Volunteers extend the reach of the organization into the community and serve as visible endorsements of its service and integrity . Station Professional Staff : Stewardship of professional responsibilities as a vital community service worthy of philanthropic investment . Identifying potential partners and donor prospects to the CEO and Development Team . Recognition that all broadcasts , programs , events , and interactions with the listening and broader community may be philanthropic moments to deepen relationships . Attention to the sound and brand of the station and programs on - air , on - line , in print , and other station materials . . . .back to top . . . Attributes of Successful CEOs The CEO is essential to success in major gift fundraising . This individual sets the tone of the organization , establishes the vision , and exemplifies the station in the public mind . In interviewing a cross - section of CEOs for this site , we identified the following shared characteristics : Champions the mission of public radio and the station , and has a vision for what the station can become . Puts good systems in place to monitor daily activities . Hires talented senior staff and empowers them to manager their functional areas . Promotes a sense of teamwork within the organization . Encourages strategic planning and managing to the plan . Spends substantial time ( 40 - 50 % , by some estimates ) in active community networking , cultivation , and stewardship . Listens to key constituents , seeking their advice and incorporating the best of it . Assures the openness and transparency of policy and financial information . Brings sufficient management experience to the position for sound decision making . Identifies and develops community partnerships . Communicates well with staff , management colleagues , board and / or licensing authority . Understands the technologies that drive service delivery . . . .back to top . . . Attributes of Successful Major Giving Officers Major giving does not just happen . Like any fundraising activity , someone must be specifically charged with the activity or it will not take place . Ideally , that person will have major giving as his or her primary activity . This is an expense that many small and mid - sized stations feel they can not now afford , but it is not a luxury . Success at major giving is partly a function of the resources the station is willing to invest in it . The ideal major giving officer has several characteristics , calling for a mix of left - and right - brain characteristics that few people possess . A " people person , " not just comfortable meeting others , but genuinely interested in them . An active listener , who not only takes in what is being said , but signals understanding to the speaker . Is knowledgeable in a broad range of interests and therefore able to comfortably converse on many subjects . A facilitator , comfortable with empowering others to succeed and willing to stay behind the curtain , when necessary . At the same time , a leader , fearless about closing the gift , when needed . Is passionate about public broadcasting and able to convey that zeal . Is detail oriented in such areas as event planning , file analysis , and record keeping . Possesses a keen ability to discern the readiness of prospective donors to progress toward deeper engagement with station in service to the community , and in some cases to make a major gift . Some knowledge of the local community is often helpful , but stations should also resist the temptation to hire those who have worked for several local organizations , as donors may perceive them as being hired guns rather than representatives of public broadcasting . For stations that feel they can not afford a major gifts officer , responsibility for major gifts is often added to the portfolio of the development director . Depending on that individual ' s experience , skills , and workload , this is sometimes not the best solution as the development director is tasked with running a comprehensive set of fundraising programs . The major giving program alone warrants a significant amount of time to reach its rewarding potential . Because they regularly deal with the public , corporate support representatives may also be good candidates , though the station This Model Job Description ( PDF , 20KB ) may be used as is or can serve as a starting point for stations seeking to recruit a major giving officer . A job description for a planned giving officer is also included , and the two descriptions may be easily combined . Clear job descriptions and effective staff organizational structures improve the development performance of any station , large or small . WLJT , Martin , Tennessee , one of the smallest stations in the MGI program , shares its organization chart and the job descriptions for its three development positions . WLJT Organization Chart ( PDF , 21KB ) WLJT Director of Development & Marketing ( PDF , 33KB ) Manager of Individual Giving ( PDF , 33KB ) Development Associate ( PDF , 29KB ) For information on conducting a performance evaluation of your major giving officer , see Measures of Success on the Evaluation and Improvement page in the Expand Your Program section . Attributes of a Successful Development Program As discussed in other sections , major giving is just one component of a comprehensive ( well rounded ) development program . The goal is to establish varied streams of revenue so instability in one stream is minimized by stability in others . Like other aspects of station operations , it is important to distinguish and clarify roles for professional staff to avoid confusion and to identify appropriate goals for each position . In addition , the organizational structure of the department can be used to overcome any gaps in positions or skill - sets or to align staff under Defining Success A major giving program takes time to be developed and implemented . Gifts in early stages of the program are likely the result of relationships that have been developing prior to the establishment of the program . Over time , the number and value of gifts will increase as time is invested in the cultivation of strategic relationships . Measuring early success , progressive success and growth of the program are addressed in the section on Evaluation and Improvement Importance of Volunteers It is taken for granted that volunteer leadership is critical to major gift fundraising . But why are volunteers so important ? Volunteers : Extend staff resources . A volunteer network provides more hands and more minds than the station can provide on its own . Expand the station ' s philanthropic network . Volunteer leaders expand the circle of friends and bring a more personal set of relationships to the table . Provide knowledge beyond the station . Volunteer leaders know the community and , through their service to other organizations , often know what works and what does n ' t in local philanthropic efforts . Are more likely to make meaningful gifts . Those who invest their time are more likely to invest their treasure . Provide selflessness and credibility to the ask . Because volunteers derive no financial benefit from the station ' s fundraising efforts , their involvement provides a compelling endorsement . Here are two examples showing how volunteers can make a big difference in a station ' s major giving effort : At WYES , volunteer network and solicitation has built what is , for its size , one of the largest major donor organizations in public broadcasting . The Producer ' s Circle Committee consists of members of the WYES Producers Circle who also provide volunteer leadership . Each year , a committee chairperson leads a prospect identification session in which members identify potential major donors from their personal lists and agree to invite them into membership through direct contact , phone call , or personal letter . The KLRU Producers Circle was established in 1992 with a core group of thirty charter members whose original goal was to recruit 100 members . A couple co - chairs the identification and solicitation effort each year , and former chairs , called " chair emeriti , " remain involved . Through this system , KLRU volunteers have produced more major donors than the station ' s own file research . Volunteer Organization — Community Licensees A New Role for Most Boards Most fundraising professionals agree that the ideal volunteer organization to lead major giving efforts is its own board of directors . Some governance experts see fundraising as an optional board responsibility , but to fundraising executives , it is usually seen as a core board task . The advantage with community licensee boards is that volunteers are recruited and selected by station leadership ( GM & other Board Volunteers ) . The disadvantage is that the role of fundraising as an expectation of board service is a fairly new concept for community licensees . It is important for station leadership to be purposeful about Engaging Board Members in the fundraising process — strategic , in who they approach and how . Recruiting a volunteer who is comfortable with fundraising and is a champion of the mission will inspire others and reduce resistance . Resistance to fundraising can be avoided if expectations are clear at the time members are recruited . Many organizations provide a Job Description for Volunteers ( PDF , 22KB ) such as this from KQED , that is discussed with the individual at the time he or she is enlisted . WCVE has created an outline of expectations in its Development Committee Objectives ( PDF , 2MB ) , and KUED has a formal job description for its Development Committee Chair ( PDF , 78KB ) . ( See more on expectations under Identifying and Recruiting Board / Volunteer Resources below . The expectations and responsibilities of board members should be further spelled out through a new member orientation program . This introduction to the station should include both written materials , and in - person presentations from a board leader and key staff . The Checklist for Board Orientation Materials ( PDF , 67KB ) outlines the items that stations should include in their board orientation materials . Another useful resource is the thorough Board Orientation Packet ( PDF , 496KB ) created by OPB . Nevertheless , many boards remain resistant to playing a role in fundraising . Here are some Board Engagement Tips ( PDF , 19KB ) to overcome this reluctance . If a board remains resistant , the station has two challenges . The long - range challenge is to assess whether it has the right board and the right board leadership . Changing the direction of a board is a long and time - consuming process . A case study in the sidebar describes how WCVE in Richmond managed this transition . The short - term challenge is to make certain that board reluctance does not stall the major giving process . In these situations , here are some Volunteer Leadership Strategies ( PDF , 17KB ) stations have used to secure volunteer leadership . Volunteer Organization — Institutional Licensees Stations licensed to government entities and universities have a different set of problems . Their governing boards are either elected , and therefore not selected for fundraising skills , or are so remote from the station that they are not able to devote time to it . Here are some successful Volunteer Organization Models ( PDF , 19KB ) now in use in public broadcasting . The sidebar contains some examples , including by - laws . Whatever model your station uses , it is important to provide clear goals , adequate support , a measure of status and recognition appropriate to the job at hand . Iowa Public Radio was formed in 2005 to bring together the public radio services of three state universities . Having completed the operational transition , it is now working to combine the three Friends groups into a statewide organization , and to add new Friends groups that cover all metropolitan areas of the state . CEO Mary Grace Herrington outlines the process ( PPT , 96KB ) and provides three important documents being used in that transition : Statement of Purpose and Objectives ( PDF , 158KB ) Mission and Statement of Responsibilities ( PDF , 156KB ) Duties and Responsibilities of Friends members ( PDF , 154KB ) Also included is the letter of invitation ( PDF , 236KB ) to community leaders and major donors to Iowa Public Radio to participate in a series of discussion about the network ' s civic and cultural engagement opportunities . IPR has used this process to allay fears of a loss of connection to local stations and to explain how the network ' s distributed broadcast centers will maintain and strengthen these local ties . An increasingly important consideration for an institutional licensee is the relationship with its parent , be it a university , school board , or state authority . Key issues in this relationship include : Editorial independence Financial challenges facing the licensee Licensee willingness to permit leadership volunteer involvement and input Cooperation / obstructionism by licensee funds development officers The University Station Alliance ( USA ) has prepared a Peer Review Assessment Tool ( PDF , 125KB ) that can help a station to pinpoint these issues . While the tool is designed to be used by an outside facilitation team , using the tool internally can be a useful first step in identifying problems and seeking solutions . For more information , contact the University Station Alliance The operating agreement ( PDF , 146KB ) between the University of Washington and Puget Sound Public Radio , which operates Seattle ' s KUOW , is one of the more innovative and productive institutional relationships in public broadcasting . Identify , Recruit , and Evaluate Leadership Volunteers It is prestigious to be recruited as a Public Radio board member , resulting in many eager candidates to fill the role . Potential volunteers are more reticent about being recruited to assist with development functions . The best candidates can be found among your current and past board members , donors , members of advisory groups , corporate underwriters , and even newcomers brought in by other volunteers . The most important qualifications for fundraising volunteers is that they be active in the community , excited by your mission , and willing to make a meaningful gift themselves . If they are already close to your organization , the CEO , Chief Development Officer , or major giving officer can approach them directly . If their relationship is not that close , the best person to approach them is another volunteer . The rules for recruiting volunteers to your organization are to be clear in what you need , what is required of them , how you will support them , and what constitutes success . Rather than simply asking them to serve on a fundraising committee , answer the above four questions for them : " We hope to expand the Leadership Circle by 10 % this year and to increase revenue by 20 % . We are asking you join the steering committee that is taking on that exciting challenge . ( What you need . ) " As a member , you will be asked to help us identify five individuals who are capable of giving $ 2,500 or more each year to this station . Some of these may be on our files ; others may be individuals you bring to our attention . We will also ask you to host a small reception — in your home , at your club , or at the station — where we can begin to tell them about the station , and to help us follow up with personal visits . You do not have to ask " We will provide lists of suspects , train all members of the committee in cultivation and solicitation techniques , provide staff support for the reception , arrange follow - up appointments , and accompany you to all prospect meetings . ( How you will support them . ) " We hope some of these contacts will result in gifts , but if you introduce us to five new friends who may eventually support us , you will have done your station a great service . " ( What constitutes success . ) Then , it is important to follow through , to give them what they need to succeed and recognize them when they have succeeded . Jeff Wright , former campaign director at Oregon Public Broadcasting , cautions against initiating volunteer activities that you can not adequately support with staff . By doing so , you will not only fall short of your goal , but risk leaving a legacy of disaffected volunteers and donors . Martha S . Richards , Executive Director of The James F . and Marion L . Miller Foundation , has a checklist of opportunities she invites clients to present to every volunteer , no matter at what level . With Martha ' s permission , we have adapted this Volunteer Self Assessment Checklist ( PDF , 30KB ) for use in public broadcasting . The Ronald McDonald House Charities of Oregon and Southwest Washington has developed a Board Member Nomination and Orientation Process ( PDF , 14KB ) that all stations with governing boards might study and , perhaps , emulate . Tom Soma , Executive Director of the charity , reports that prospective trustees are interviewed by a member of the board development committee before they are nominated , then formally voted on and , if accepted , invited to join the board . Successful nominees sign a Trustee Agreement ( PDF , 22KB ) that spells out specific roles and responsibilities . At the end of each year , every trustee fills out a Trustee Self - Evaluation ( PDF , 44KB ) . Soma says that the process has improved the rate of board giving and participation and has produced resignations of those members who can not meet the standards the charity sets . KNPB in Reno uses a similar tool that incorporates a point system . Board members use this system to conduct an Annual Self Evaluation ( MS Excel file , 18KB ) of their own performance . Strengthening the Station ' s Firewall The firewall serves to protect stations from undue influence . CPB is charged with acting as the firewall between stations and political influence through federal funding . Each station needs its own firewall to insulate its content decisions from local and state public funding sources , from corporate underwriters , and from donors . Major giving adds a new level of complexity to firewall protections , for donors are invited to have a much deeper relationship with the station than is possible or practical for most members to enjoy . In high level philanthropy , donor are even asked for their advice on the institution ' s projects and programs . This type of donor relationship is new to public media and it is uncomfortable for many stations , but it is essential to success in major giving . The way to manage this delicate relationship is by establishing a set of ground rules and guidelines that are understood at the outset by both the donor and the organization . A new , CPB funded website rich with resources and discussion on topics of editorial integrity , funders and firewalls and ethics in fundraising is available to those taking the step of engaging donors more deeply in the station . To help determine where the trouble spots may be in the continuum of engagement , Ross Papish discusses how to develop your firewall alarm system ( PDF , 337KB ) .

The board voted to launch the campaign and then refused to support it . Station management realized that its current board was stagnant and uninvolved and that it would be able to reach the campaign goals . It filled three open board positions with movers and shakers . One became a catalyst for change and formed a task force , composed of outside volunteer board restructuring process ( PDF , 137KB ) . Circle of Friends : The informal name for the human connections an organization has into its community . Leadership Volunteer : An individual who devotes time and talent to a station whose position in the community allows him to influence the giving and volunteerism of others .

ABC ’ s of Voice Degrees A young singer exploring college voice degrees will find a veritable alphabet soup of degree options including BM , BA , BME , BFA , and BMT . Knowing the differences can help a high school singer choose the right degree for his or her career path . by Cynthia Vaughn BM ( Bachelor of Music ) in Vocal Performance This is typically a degree in classical vocal performance with an emphasis on opera , oratorio , and art song . Several schools offer BM degrees in Vocal Jazz Studies and a few schools are now offering a BM in Popular Music ( rock , pop , R&B , country ) or Contemporary Commercial Music . BA ( Bachelor of Arts ) in Music With an emphasis in voice , the BA in music may offer liberal arts majors a secondary emphasis such as business , theater , or foreign language . The secondary track is more than a minor and less than a double major . In some states , such as California , a BA performance degree may be equivalent to a BM at other schools . BME ( Bachelor of Music Education ) This is a music degree for elementary or secondary vocal music teachers and choir directors . BFA ( Bachelor of Fine Arts ) This is a degree offered in Music Theater and is usually housed in either the music or the theater department . BMT ( Bachelor of Music Therapy ) Voice majors in this degree often have music skills and an interest in the science and medicine . Future vocal music majors are often the top singers in their high schools . It is not unusual for talented teens to sing a variety of vocal styles in high school . They sing in select school choirs , All State Choir , jazz choirs , glee clubs and show choir . They play leading roles in school musicals ; take private voice and piano lessons ; compete in and win NATS ( National Association of Teachers of Singing ) Student Auditions Some Questions to Ask As You Explore University Vocal Degree Programs : What kind of music will I study and perform ? Can I sing classical and contemporary styles ? Are freshmen allowed to audition for select choirs and stage shows ? Who will be my voice teacher ? Will I study with voice faculty or with a graduate student ? Will I have 30 - minute or hour lessons ? Do I get to choose my voice teacher ? ( Usually not ! Freshman are usually assigned to faculty . ) In some large music schools , music education voice students are not considered voice “ majors ” , but rather voice emphasis . How large is the graduate program ? The larger the graduate program , the fewer opportunities there may be for underclassmen to perform in the top ensembles or play leading roles in operas and musicals . How important are piano skills ? Very ! The smartest thing a potential voice major can do to ensure success as a music major is to take piano lessons and learn the basics of music theory . Dance and acting skills are also critical for BFA music theater majors . What are the solo recital requirements for undergraduates ? BM performance majors may be expected to prepare and perform a junior and senior recital or just a senior recital . Music Education majors may perform a solo senior recital , or no recital . BA majors may have an option of performing a recital or preparing a paper or presentation . Music Therapy majors may have vocal assessments as part of their practicum , but may not be required to perform a solo recital . At some schools BME , BMT , or BFA students have an option to pursue a concurrent Performers Certificate , which implies a level How long will it take to earn my degree ? Many vocal performance and music education degrees require so many credits that it is nearly impossible to complete in four years without taking summer courses . What kind of job can I get with a voice degree ? BME graduates are prepared to go right into classroom music teaching and secondary choral conducting . Jazz and contemporary music grads can become free - lance performers and recording artists . Classical BM voice majors often go directly to graduate vocal performance degrees to build skills and allow their voices to mature for the opera stage . BFA Music Theater voice majors start auditioning as soon as they graduate and may be hired by regional theater companies , touring companies , cruise ships , theme parks , and perhaps Broadway and Off - Broadway . Upon graduating , BMT voice Cynthia Vaughn ( BA and MA in Music Vocal Performance ) co - authored with Meribeth Dayme , PhD , THE SINGING BOOK , a leading college voice textbook and song anthology ( 3rd edition 2014 , W.W. Norton ) . She taught voice at the university level for ten years ( Colorado State University , Cedarville University ) and prepares many young singers for college auditions . Vaughn is an active NATS ( National Association of Teachers of Singing ) member who has performed across the country in professional classical and music theater productions , and studio recording . She is a frequent adjudicator for vocal competitions , teaches masterclasses , and is founder and director of Magnolia Music Studio in Fort Collins , Colorado . Audition Pointers What to Wear to the Audition You ’ re best off dressing as a “ daytime professional . ” Guys : dress slacks and dress shoes ( no athletic shoes ! ) , button up shirt . Tie and jacket are optional , but a good choice . A tux is too formal . Jeans are too informal . Girls : skirt or knee - length dress , stylish but somewhat conservative . Dress shoes ( midheight heels with hose ) . Avoid short , short skirts and low , low necklines . Audition Notebook Use a solid colored ( preferably black ) 3 - ring binder , with clean , complete photocopies of your audition repertoire . Clearly mark where you are beginning and if there are any cuts . Tabs are helpful .

Make : Projects Robot Halloween Costume Make a robot costume from a cardboard box using Krylon Premium Metallics Original Chrome spray paint and some supplies from the hardware store . By Brookelynn Morris Time Required : 2 hours Print this Project I know a little girl who has wanted to be a robot for as long as she can remember — a dancing robot , to be precise . The best thing about being a kid is letting your imagination run wild . The best thing about being a grown - up is being able to make a child ’ s dreams come to life . Introducing the BoogieBot 5000 , the best robot Halloween costume ever . After deciding to build my base from two cardboard boxes covered with Krylon Premium Metallics Original Chrome spray paint , I took a walk through the hardware store for inspiration . When you let yourself think from the perspective of a child , everything becomes something — dryer ducting for arms , faucet handles for ears , and cycling reflectors for flashy buttons . The finishing touches were two big blue eyes . I drew them on with a Krylon Short Cuts paint pen , then taped LEDs to watch batteries to make them glow . The shiny chrome paint brightly reflects the light , and really brings the costume to ( artificial ) life .

Star Wars : The Force Awakens ’ Huge Spoilers About Luke Skywalker ’ s Involvement ! In some ways , this is as big as the BIG rumor we ran earlier in the week . Its pretty much pertains to the end of the film . So you might want to check out at this point . If you ’ re a spoileraholic like I am , then let me indulge you . Oh yeah , I ’ m also going to talk about the big rumor from earlier in the week too , so it kind of goes hand in hand . I ’ m not going to elaborate on everything but what ’ s important is in here , trust me on that . This is very general . I was going to sit up on this for a little while but today our friend Da7e at Latino Review mentioned that Luke is very inactive in the film . I ca n ’ t disagree with them . Since the conversation has begun , lets get to it , there is no reason to save it . Really quickly , let me discuss past Luke rumors . The things we heard about Luke in the past came from pretty good places . I think they were legitimate ideas and / or deliberate misinformation . Drawing Kylo looking like a Star Wars : The Force Awakens . It might be an Episode VIII issue for all I know . But like I said , I doubt it . I ’ ve kind of struggled with this recently because I have a hard time imagining Luke Skywalker is barely in this film since I ’ ve learned of this truth . But when I read the entire film and the way it unfolds , I trust the choice . It just feels right to me when it unfolds . I have wondered if it was a trick or something else . I want to think there is stuff being hidden . But I gotta go with what evidence there is . I really truly believe this evidence I have is very accurate . The evidence is that Luke Skywalker is not really in this film . Two different documents from the production show Mark Hamill as only having one sequence in the entire film . Blocked But if you want to know exactly what Luke does in the film , read on . Okay . Stop reading . You ’ re still here ? You sure ? The heroes suffer a great blow when they lose their mentor figure . But after a great duel with Rey and Finn versus Kylo Ren , the heroes return back to the base as heroes . At this point , it becomes clear that their current adventure together has come to an end . We follow our main hero , Rey as she says goodbye to the important players in the film , Leia , Poe , and so on . Meanwhile BB - 8 , Artoo - Detoo , and See - Threepio decode a puzzle . Rey makes a special stop to say goodbye to Finn in the medical bay . Rey , Chewbacca , and BB - 8 then get into the Falcon and take off . Chewbacca playfully messes up her hair in an endearing gesture . Things are going to be alright , is what the Wookiee is trying to say , as far as I can tell . I imagine like all Star Wars films , the end is silent with music playing . That ’ s just my take though . But it seems likely here . They fly away to a new planet and the Falcon lands . Rey walks up the stone steps . She comes up to a figure and puts the Lightsaber in his hand . Its Luke Skywalker . The End . That ’ s what Luke does . He gets his lightsaber back . He apparently finds an apprentice . It appears Luke Skywalker is very much an artifact being saved for Star Wars : Episode VIII . Did they really have Mark Hamill on set all that time just to hang out and obscure his place in the film ? Is that why Hamill was able to attend all of those events and stuff like that when need be ? It would be good for that and good for letting the cast bond and it might explain why we never have any pictures of Luke Skywalker as he only filmed for a short amount of time . Please do n ’ t get mad at me for not telling many of you want you wanted to hear . Structurally , there ’ s really no place for him in the story I ’ ve read . The documentation we have seen only states Hamill has this one sequence and they ’ re the final scenes in the film for sure .

← Property Valuation Malaysia – How accurate is your property value ? Malaysia Property Sector to remain resilient → What is Bonded Warehouse ? Posted on June 3 , 2014 by What is bonded warehouse ? A warehouse authorized by Customs authorities for storage of goods on which payment of duties is deferred until the goods are removed . A Bonded warehouse is a building or other secured area in which dutiable goods may be stored , manipulated , or undergo manufacturing operations without payment of duty . It may be managed by the state or by private enterprise . In the latter case a customs bond must be posted with the government . This system exists in all developed countries of the world . Upon entry of goods into the warehouse , the importer and warehouse proprietor incur liability under a bond . This liability is generally cancelled when the goods are : Exported ; or deemed exported ; Withdrawn for supplies to a vessel or aircraft in international traffic ; Destroyed under Customs supervision ; or Withdrawn for consumption domestically after payment of duty . A bonded warehouse is a duty free zone , akin to a port . It is usually fenced and has high security . The warehouse operator normally gives a ‘ bond ’ or more usually nowadays a bank guarantee ( instead of a cash deposit in the old days ) to customs to guarantee that there will be no loss of revenue to customs should any of the goods stored within be inadvertently released from the bonded area . In Malaysia , a license from customs is required before a public bonded warehouse can begin operations . What are the benefits of Bonded Warehouse ? The advantages of Bonded Warehouse : 1 . By storing goods in a bonded warehouse , traders can enjoy substantial cost savings through the deferment of payment of tax if the goods are not immediately required when they arrive in the destination port . 2 . Duty need not be paid on imported goods which are intended for reexport . 3 . Duty need not be paid on goods which are produced in a Free Industrial Zone pending export if they are stored in a bonded warehouse . Normally , when goods are imported into the free circulation of the European Union , Value Added Tax ( VAT ) and customs duties should be paid before the goods can be stored , waiting to be sold . However , it is also possible to store the goods in a customs bonded warehouse , which results in a postponement for an indefinite period of customs duty / VAT at import . In this case , customs duties and VAT at import only need to be paid when the goods are actually imported into the free circulation of the EU . If the client is located in a non - EU country , the goods can be transported under customs bond from the warehouse to the country where the buyer is located . Then , customs duties and VAT at import are subsequently paid in the country of destination . Because the majority of the customs bonded warehouses in the Malaysia are administratively controlled , the number of physical checks by the Customs Department is reduced dramatically . For example , the import can be carried out via EDI or via a diskette . Supplying customs with information this way allows them to do more detailed checks on the clearances as well as the mutations of the inventory . Physical checks are carried out at random and basically each logistics service provider is checked extensively only once every three years . Under this type of scenario , it is possible to operate a Regional Distribution Center 24 hours a day , 7 days a week , 365 days a year . While foreign companies can apply for a license to operate their own customs bonded warehouse , many companies outsource this type of storage to a logistics service provider .

Home : : Growing Poplar Growing Poplar Hybrid Poplar is easy to grow and extremely fast growing . In four years reaching up to 30 ft . Planting Poplar from unrooted cuttings is common practice and has a high success rate .1ft cuttings are placed in a 9 inch per made hole . ( the same process as planting willow cuttings ) Poplar can be planted as 1.5m + rod cuttings . Planting large rod cuttings is an affordable way of creating an instant screen or coppice with immediate impact . The larger the cutting the slightly deeper in the ground it should be planted and 1.5m cutting - planted approx . 40cm into the ground . Many Poplars suffer spread problems with rust diseases .The two varieties which are rust resistant are Trichobel and Gaver . Hybrid Poplar VS Hybrid Willow grown for wood fuel . Poplar initially grows with a single trunk rather than willows multiple branches . The Hybrid Poplar is a very tall growing tree , whereas the Hybrid Willow maximum height is between 6 and 9 m depending on variety . The first coppice of Poplar will result in large logs than Willow , but the overall weight of dry wood is similar over a four year growing period . Poplar is coppiced in the same way as Willow and will after its first coppice multiple stems with grow from the base . We advise plating Poplar with a planting space of 1m rather than the 75cm with willow if plating to form logs . Both the planting of Poplar and Willow need some preparation to the ground first to eliminate competition form weed and grass . There are two methods .1 To plough and spray using a chemical herbicide such as roundup .This must be done three months before planting and kept weed free around the base of the trees for the first two years .2 Using a groundcover mulch / membrane rolled down on to grass or weeds this can be pegged down . It can be removed at a later date and recycled .

In many cases , everyone in your organization will have a different view of the same change . A CEO may see change in terms of organizational structure & strategy . A manager in operations may see change in terms of processes . A manager in technology may see change in terms of systems & tools . In some cases a change is so complex that no one person has a true end - to - end view of it . It can be a significant challenge to align the different types of change across an organization . The following ten types of organizational change endlessly overlap . It ' s rare to have a change that impacts just one area . 1 . Mission & Strategy In theory , all changes in an organization are aligned to the organization ' s mission and strategy . In reality , changes may be difficult to map to strategy or may even contradict it . When mission & strategy change the impact may reverberate throughout the organization . 2 . Organizational Structure Organizational structure refers to the objectives , roles and responsibilities of departments , teams and individuals . Major changes such as mergers & acquisitions are considered structural changes . However , structural changes may also be relatively minor ( e.g. establishment of a small new team ) . 3 . People Hiring , turnover , roles & responsibilities , training and other individual changes . People changes may seem minor but taken as a whole they represent a critical focus for change management . For example , training is critical to the acceptance of change . 4 . Culture Changes to the principles , expectations , norms , working habits and symbols of an organization . Culture is important to strategic objectives such as productivity , innovation and compliance . 5 . Knowledge Changes to the knowledge assets of an organization . Knowledge supports every program , project , initiative , process and product . Organizations increasingly identify knowledge as a important asset and target for change . 6 . Policies & Legal Agreements A change as minor as a new rule or policy can have a big impact on an organization . New rules ( or changes to legal agreements ) are n ' t always popular with employees and customers — implementation and acceptance can be a change management challenge . 7 . Processes Changes to business process and tasks represent amongst the most common type of change . Many organizations have implemented continuous improvement programs that change processes on a regular basis . Processes also need to change to support new strategies or to leverage new technologies . 8 . Technology Changes to technology infrastructure , systems , automations and tools . Some firms focus on technology change — letting it drive other change within the organization . It ' s common for change management to be highly focused on technology changes . 9 . Products , Marketing & Customer Relationships Changes to products , marketing and sales are a critical focus for many organizations . For example , new product development is often key to strategy execution . 10 . Integration Processes need to work with technology . People need to work with processes . Rules apply to processes . Rules align with cultures . Most changes require integration . Integration is aligning things so that they support , compliment and add value to each other . It ' s often the most complex type of change . Related Articles Change Management Managing the chaos called business change . more »

What are Values , Morals , and Ethics ? By Carter McNamara on January 2 , 2012 Guest post from Jack Hoban What are Values ? According to the dictionary , values are “ things that have an intrinsic worth in usefulness or importance to the possessor , ” or “ principles , standards , or qualities considered worthwhile or desirable . ” However , it is important to note that , although we may tend to think of a value as something good , virtually all values are morally relative – neutral , really – until they are qualified by asking , “ How is it good ? ” or “ Good to whom ? ” The “ good ” can sometimes be just a What are Morals ? Moral values are relative values that protect life and are respectful of the dual life value of self and others . The great moral values , such as truth , freedom , charity , etc . , have one thing in common . When they are functioning correctly , they are life protecting or life enhancing for all . But they are still relative values . Our relative moral values must be constantly examined to make sure that they are always performing their life - protecting mission . Even the Marine Corps core values of “ honor , courage and What is Ethics ? A person who knows the difference between right and wrong and chooses right is moral . A person whose morality is reflected in his willingness to do the right thing – even if it is hard or dangerous – is ethical . Ethics are moral values in action . Being ethical id an imperative because morality protects life and is respectful of others – all others . It is a lifestyle that is consistent with mankind ’ s universal values as articulated by the American Founding Fathers – human equality and the inalienable right to life . As warriors it When you must kill protecting life it is still hard , but it is moral . Those who kill those not observant of their narrow relative religious , ethnic or criminal values – in other words , kill over relative values – are immoral . A dedication to protecting the life value of self and others – all others – makes the Ethical Warrior different and moral . The Definitions in Action — Sample Story : “ The Bully ” If all of that is a little too philosophical , we also created this vignette to explain the terms in a more down - to - earth way . We call it : You are a kid in the schoolyard . You see a bully . He thinks he is the “ top dog . ” That is fine . That perception is a relative value . But when his relative value supersedes the life value of another kid – in other words , when the bully picks on and / or punches the other kid – this is wrong and must be stopped . Here is the rule : relative values , no matter how “ great , ” can not supersede the life value . You see the bully picking on the other kid . You feel – in your gut – that this is wrong . Congratulations , you are moral . ( By the way , most people are moral – they know the difference between right and wrong ) Now … you see the bully picking on the other kid . You overcome the “ freeze , ” you overcome the embarrassment , and you go tell a teacher . Congratulations ! You are ethical . ( Ethics are moral values in action ) .

What Do You Call The Officer / Staff Person In - Charge of Raising Charitable Contributions ? By Hank Lewis , MA , CFRM on April 30 , 2013 This posting by : Hank Lewis There are two steps to take in answering that question . The first is asking , “ Who cares ? ” Is n ’ t what we call that person largely irrelevant ? Is n ’ t that person going to do what has to be done , no matter his / her title ? Definitely not ! ! We are greatly affected by how we are labelled . Titles are important to people because they impact both self - image and how others see us . With the “ wrong ” self - image and / or the “ wrong ” face to the world , our effectiveness must suffer . The second step involves defining / understanding that person ’ s role / job . So , here we start with the concept of development – the process of identifying potential donors , sparking their interest in the organization , identifying the needs of those individuals , determining how giving to the organization can satisfy those needs , helping to build a bond between them and the organization , and growing that relationship . Bottom line , development is about creating , maintaining and enhancing the relationships that lead to charitable contributions . Fundraising is merely the end result of the development process . Without the relationship building and the satisfying of donor needs , there can be no real / substantive fundraising . Now , having gotten that out of the way , let ’ s look at some of the titles commonly used by nonprofit organizations : The title to which I object the most is Director of Philanthropy . Aside from that being a really pompous designation , the reality is that you do n ’ t / ca n ’ t direct philanthropy . Philanthropy comes from the individual . Philanthropists give because of their desire / need to help other people … or society in general . Those feelings are internally generated , not such that someone can direct them . Director of Charitable Giving : I ’ m sure that everyone has heard the expression , “ Charity Begins At Home . ” Well , the organizational staff person can show potential donors possible places / programs where they can put their money . S / he can show them how their giving can make a difference , how it can help others , but , as with philanthropy , you ca n ’ t direct charity . The word , “ charity , ” is also so very passé . Of all that I ’ ve heard , I like “ Director of Development , ” because the focus is on the building of relationships , but that ’ s become a euphemism for “ fundraiser . ” The Staff Person In - Charge of Raising Charitable Contributions can ( personally or through others ) show a potential donor how making the gift will not only help other people but will satisfy the needs of the donor . The key to successful fundraising , however , is getting the donor to want to make the gift . So , what do we call that staff person whose job it is to get the donor to want to make the gift ? Not somebody who directs fundraising ; not someone who directs philanthropy , not a director of charitable giving ; maybe not even a director of development . There ’ s also “ Director of Community Relations , ” “ Director of Donor Relations , ” and “ Director of Constituent Relations . ” The first seems so very broad , even encompassing institutional marketing ; and the second and third seem to come after the fact . Finally : Sophisticated ( potential ) donors know that a nonprofit organization has to raise the funds to run its programs … to help the people it serves . And , they know that , whatever the title , that the person “ cultivating ” them is working to move them toward a specific end result . The answer to the question , therefore , is that the Staff Person In - Charge must have a title that is comfortable for ( prospective ) donors , unpretentious , and satisfying to the Staff Person . What do you think it should be ? ? Why ? ? = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = Have a comment or a question about starting , evaluating or expanding your fundraising program ?

http://managementstudyguide.com/cost-sensitivity-customers.htm
Cost / Price Sensitivity of Customers Price sensitivity can be defined as the consciousness of the customers to cost windows or range within which they make dealings . All the customers are always cost sensitive and concentrate basically to buy products on cheap rates . However , cost sensitivity of a customer substantially depends on condition of the market . For example if a product becomes extraordinarily famous and demanding in market and every company is tending towards capturing this product then it becomes necessary to focus on technological aspects rather than focusing on the cost . If they do so then the cost sensitivity of these customers is least . Similarly if a product becomes common in market due to emerging competitors coming up with similar It is important for the suppliers to understand how cost sensitive the customers are ; so that they should focus on some strategies always to keep their customers falling under least price sensitive stage . For example , reducing one dollar on a towel ’ s price could put that towel on sale and everybody rushes to buy it , but reducing one dollar on a car will not make any difference and will not attract customers by any means . Hence the primary challenge for all the organizations should be making certain that the change in price is perceptible Price sensitivity strategy for suppliers also depends on customer usage of products . Their can be two categories of customers as per the buying aspect ; heavy buying users and light buying users . Take an example of an organization which consists of 30 % heavy buyers and 70 % light buyers . Now if the organization cuts off the price of the product to some extent only for heavy users , then a substantial growth in percentage from 30 % to 40 % is probably possible . And obviously 40 % heavy buyers and 60 % light buyers will be more productive for the organization rather then 30 % heavy buyers Hence , knowing about the customer ’ s price sensitivity always helps suppliers to entertain and satisfy them . If the customer is highly competitive and perceives short term projects , then it is not worth for suppliers to convince them for high end or expensive products . The customer will anyway supercharge to reduce the cost or cut the related frills as it may not be affordable or is out of budget for them to purchase . So it is important for suppliers to sacrifice on cost or else he may leave the customer unsatisfied , in worst case Making fruitful strategies and positive analyzing cost sensitivity is one of the most important challenges that an organization could face . On the other hand it is desirable to deal efficiently with it . The best practice is to pre - evaluate the customer needs and make a fair offer to them according to their requirement and budget . ❮ Previous Article Next Article ❯ Authorship / Referencing - About the Author ( s ) The article is Written By “ Prachi Juneja ” and Reviewed By Management Study Guide Content Team .

Retail Pricing - Different Types of Pricing Models The sale of goods from fixed points ( malls , department stores , supermarkets and so on ) to the consumer in small quantities for his own consumption is called as retail . According to the concept of retailing , a retailer does n ’ t sell products in bulk ; instead sells the merchandise in small units to the end - users . Retail Pricing Cost Plus Pricing Mechanism Every organization runs to earn profits and so is the retail industry . Cost plus pricing works on the following principle : Cost Price of the product + Profit ( Decided by the retailer ) = Final price of the merchandise . According to cost plus pricing strategy the retailer adds some extra amount to the actual cost price of the product to earn his share of profits . The final price of the merchandise includes the profit as decided by the retailer . Cost Plus Pricing Cost plus pricing strategy takes into account the profit of the retailer . Cost plus pricing is an easy way to calculate the price of the merchandise . The increase in the retailer price of the merchandise is directly proportional to the increase in the cost price . The customers however do not have a say in cost plus pricing . Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price ( Also called List Price or Recommended retail price ) According to manufacturer suggested retail pricing strategy the retailer sets the final price of the merchandise as suggested by the manufacturer . MSRP The retailer sells his merchandise at a price suggested by the manufacturer . Condition 1 The retailer sells the product at the same price as suggested by the manufacturer . Condition 2 The retailer sells the merchandise at a price less than what was suggested by the manufacturer - Such a condition arises when the retailer offers “ Sale ” on his merchandise . Condition 3 Retailers initially quote an unreasonably high price and then reduce the price on the customer ’ s request to make him realize that a favour has been done to him . A condition of Bargain - where the customer negotiates with the retailer to reduce the price of the merchandise . Competitive Pricing The cut throat competition in the current retail scenario has prompted the retailers to guarantee excellent customer service to the buyers for them to prefer them over their competitors . The price of the merchandise is more or less similar to the competitor ’ s but the retailers add on certain attractive benefits for the customers . ( Longer payment term , gifts etc . ) The retailers ensure that the customers leave their store with a smile to have an edge over the competitors . He tries his level best to offer better services to the customers for a better business in future . Pricing Below Competition According to pricing below competition policy The price of the merchandise is kept lesser than what is being offered by the competitors . Prestige Pricing ( Pricing above competition ) According to prestige pricing mechanism , the price of the merchandise is set slightly above the competitors . The retailer can charge higher price than the competitors only under the following circumstances : Exclusive Brands at the store . Brand image of the store Prime location of the retail store Excellent customer service Merchandise not available at any other store Latest Trends Psychological Pricing Certain price of a product at which the consumer willingly purchases it is called psychological price . The consumer perceives such prices to be correct . A retailer sets a psychological price which he feels would meet the expectations of the buyers and they would easily buy the merchandise . Multiple Pricing According to multiple pricing , the retailer sells multiple products ( more than one ) for a single price . The retailers combine few products to be sold for a single fixed price . 3 Shirts for $ 100 / - or 3 Perfumes for $ 20 / - and so on .

http://managementstudyguide.com/types-of-sales-professionals.htm
Different Types of Sales Professionals A sales professional in a workplace is responsible for meeting the sales targets of the organization and maintaining relationship with the existing and potential clients . He plays a central role in generating revenues for the organization . Following are the types of sales people in organizations : The Diplomat As the name suggests , a diplomat is one who always tries to play a safe game . He hates taking risks in life and accepts things as they come . These people tend to have a casual approach towards work . A diplomat never believes in putting pressure on the customers . If he fails to convince the client in the first attempt , he would never try to do it again . He would simply ignore and try with the next client . Such sale professionals are calm , have an easy going attitude and are never under pressure . The Rejection Dreader Such sales professionals fear rejections and failures at work . They find it very difficult to accept failures at the workplace . They depend more on cribbing and complaining rather than working and getting results . Such kinds of people fail to motivate themselves and tend to develop a laidback and negative attitude after a single failure . The Militant Closer As the name suggests such sales professionals are extremely aggressive and can go to any extent to get results . They are only concerned about their targets and results and hardly think about the needs and expectations of the clients . For them the only thing which matters is closing the deal . They hardly bother whether a customer requires a particular product or not In most cases they make the client ’ s life hell just to sell their products and earn revenues . The Sales Scholar Such sales professionals believe in lots of research and planning before going for a sales call . They spend their maximum time browsing internet , reading books and newspapers , checking various articles on sales rather than going out in the field and meeting people . Sales scholars put more emphasis on theoretical knowledge as compared to practical exposure . They have an eye on even the minutest details . The Phony There are certain sales representatives who simply pretend to be client ’ s best friend . Such people fall in this category . They always speak good and appear to be sugar coated . The Overcooked Casualty This category involves people who do sales just to earn their bread and butter , not as a passion . Such people chose sales as a profession because they feel it is an easy way to earn money as there are huge incentives involved . Their main motive is to close deals and earn incentives . They do not care much for the customers . The Professional As the name suggests the professionals are the ones who look forward towards providing the right solution to the clients . They enjoy interacting with people and suggest only what is right and best for them . Professionals ensure clients are satisfied with their service . For them client relationship is of utmost importance . They never get impatient or hyper while attending customers instead suggest them the best available options . ❮ Previous Article Next Article ❯ Similar Articles Under - Sales Management Motivating the Sales Team Responsibilities of a Sales Manager Qualities of a Sales Professional Role of Communication in Sales Role of Attitude in Sales Management View All Articles Authorship / Referencing - About the Author ( s ) The article is Written By “ Prachi Juneja ” and Reviewed By Management Study Guide Content Team .

Print Career Advice > > Browse Articles > > Resume , Cover Letter & Interview Tips + 1 How to End a Job Interview Tweet 0 Comments Margaret Steen | for HotJobs In preparing for a job interview , you ’ ve probably practiced a firm ( but not too firm ) handshake , rehearsed answers to tough questions about your background , and polished up your lucky interview shoes . But many job hunters overlook a crucial part of the interview process : the very end . As you finish an interview , you have one last chance to sell the interviewer on your skills — and get the information you need in order to follow up . Experts offer these tips for successfully closing an interview : Do n ’ t leave empty - handed . To be sure you can follow up later , do n ’ t leave the interview without getting the names , titles , and contact information of everyone you met . This includes people you may dismiss as unimportant . “ You do n ’ t know who has pull , ” says Laura DeCarlo , president of Career Directors International , a global professional association of resume writers and career coaches . Know the next steps . You should also ask what the next steps are in the process : Will the most - promising candidates be called back for another interview ? Is the company about to make a hiring decision ? How soon does the hiring manager expect to move to this next step ? Quiz : How Does Your Hand Shake ? You can tell a lot about a person from their handshake . From flimsy , sweaty palms , to bone - crushing grips , find out what your handshake says about you ! TAKE THE QUIZ > > “ It ’ s totally appropriate for a candidate to ask this , ” says Peggy McKee , founder of career - confidential . com . Lay the groundwork for a follow - up . Once the interviewer explains how the process will unfold , DeCarlo explains , “ you say , ‘ Thank you . Is it OK if I call you if I have n ’ t heard from you ? ’ ” Although you do n ’ t need the interviewer ’ s permission to follow up , having the interviewer say it ’ s OK will likely make you less apprehensive if doing so becomes necessary . Close the sale . After you thank the interviewer and briefly summarize why you think you ’ re a good fit for the job , McKee suggests asking straight out , “ Based on this interview , do you feel that I could be successful in this position ? Will you move me forward in the interview process ? ” A positive response does n ’ t mean you ’ re guaranteed to get the job . But the interviewer will likely remember you as a stronger candidate . “ When you answer yes , you cross a line mentally , ” McKee says . What if the interviewer expresses reservations ? “ That ’ s the big fear , ” McKee says . But even though it may be disappointing , it ’ s better to know . “ This is your only really strong opportunity to find out what her objections are , so you can overcome those objections . ” For example , if the interviewer says you lack experience in a particular area , you may realize that did n ’ t emphasize your relevant experience enough . You can now clarify , either on the spot or in a follow - up letter . You may get a noncommittal answer — the interviewer may say simply that there are more candidates to interview , for example . If that happens , use this as an opportunity to ask for more information about how the hiring process will play out . Remember the details . Your thank - you notes will be more effective if you can mention specifics about your interviews . The best way to do this , DeCarlo says , is to write down everything you remember — good and bad — as soon as you can after the interview . This article was originally published on Monster . com

http://manageyourheartburn.com/aerophagia.php
Aerophagia Symptoms Aerophagia ( air swallowing , excessive or constant burping ) is defined as a condition when a person swallows too much air . This air is usually goes to the stomach . People with Aerophagia are believed to have excessive belches due to air swallowing . You probably also heard terms like constant or excessive belching or burping . These conditions are closely related to aerophagia but not necessarily caused by it . Since excessive burping ( or some called it chronic belching ) happened to me a lot of times I always was curious why the heck it happens . Recenlty I spent some time reading through forums , internet sites and books and wanted to share several ideas on its causes : Aerophagia causes You ' re too anxious or nervous . Yeah - it sounds quite usual . But this is the most common reason why it happens . If you burp all the time - try to conciously control yourself for 20 minutes and make sure that you ' re not swallowing air . If this was the main reason for your burping then in several minutes you should get rid of it completely . Though note that some people swallow air unconciously even without thinking about it - so it may be quite hard to stop doing it . Consider looking to these lifestyle guidelines to reduce symptoms . Consumption of milk and milk products . Large percentage of adults have lactose intolerance . So consider stopping milk consumption for some time and results may surprise you . For lactose intolerant people milk could cause lots of gas bloating and excessive burping . Carbs . Lots of carb containing products could cause belching . It does n ' t mean that you have to cut on carbs . All you have to do is try to find which carb products cause symptoms you experiencing . Try to isolate them one by one by having meals where you consuming only one specific carb product and checking whether it increases your symptoms or not . Use food acidity list to determine which foods can cause heartburn and burping . Also take a look at database of user opinions about different foods . You may find something helpful for yourself there . Or you can just share your opinion to help other people . Aerophagia Treatment Eat smaller meals more frequently . Also do n ' t rush your meals and chew thoroughly . This will minimize stress on your stomach and reduce burping and belching symptoms . Also eating small meals may help with indigestion problems . Try not to swallow too much air when you ' re eating . This usually happens when you speak too much when eating . Also some people tend to swallow very frequently when eating which causes additional air in the stomach . Consider cutting on carbonated drinks . It is natural cause of burping and belching . It is fine for most people to drink it but for people with chronic belching and burping it may make sense to cut on those for a while until symptoms disappear . - Since aerophagia is a very close friend of acid reflux and heartburn it make sense to check if Wedge Pillow could help . Incliner Sleep Wedge is an innovative sleep solution . It was scientifically designed just to help acid reflux sufferers . It relieves acid reflux by elevating your head , shoulders and upper body as doctors recommend . It helps you to sleep in a natural position for controlling heartburn , respiratory problems and digestion ailments . An alternative to sleep wedge pillow is Mattress Genie ™ Slippery Elm . Over the course of living with heartburn and acid reflux I found only one herbal treatment which is very effective . It is Slippery Elm . I mostly use it in the form of the powder and make a tea out of it . Tea is n ' t very tasty but it covers stomach and esophagus with gel like liquid which protects them from acid . Usually one cup of tea is good enough to have zero heartburn through the night and in the morning . Make sure that you have enough good vitamins in your diet . This will help your body to relieve stress . Try simple yoga asanas or even consider going to yoga classes . Yoga brings balance to your body and mind and gives relief to lots of stress related symptoms . Treatment of aerophagia is quite tricky and lots of different methods were attempted before . Here is a short list of them : differential reinforcement of alternative behavior , differential reinforcement of other behavior , reprimands , response cost , time - out , positive - practice overcorrection , squirts of food extract or lemon juice into the mouth , visual screening , auditory cuing , and gentle nose presses . You can search internet for them to get an idea on how they work . I think the most effective method is self control . Just try to control your air swallowing for 10 minutes . Every time you ' re trying to swallow do something . In one paper it was recommended to guide your hand over your mouth to following each attempt to engage in air swallowing .

1 . Food : Along the world ' s miles of coastline , man has always had a very available food source - high in protein and trace minerals , because of the many kinds of molluscs to be found there . Mussel and oyster beds , clam - flats and other abundant shellfish have always provided an easy source of food . Today , fisheries in Europe , Japan and the US alone produce over 1 billion pounds of oyster meat each year . Abalone , a great delicacy , can fetch up to three hundred dollars per pound . Could you imagine a world without Clam Chowder ? * One problem does exist ; however . At certain times of the year , ( usually the warmer months ) many species of salt - water molluscs become very poisonous ( L ) due to an algal bloom ( Note : The algae include many unusual organisms which are one - celled and can swim like animals , and all the many different kinds of seaweed . ) known as " red tide . " The molluscs filter feed on these tiny creatures ( called " dinoflagellates " - no relation to dinosaurs ! ! ) that produce the toxins . Eating shellfish during " Red Tide ' can cause serious illness and even death to humans . This could be one explanation why in the Jewish and Muslim cultures , shellfish are considered unclean and forbidden . Tastes in molluscan food vary tremendously from one person to the next and from culture to culture ; however , when it comes to a question of survival , most molluscs are edible . Some are considered delicacies such as oysters and escargot while others such as the clams and mussels of fresh water ponds and streams are less likely to be consumed due to taste , but none - the - less are very edible . Terrestrial molluscs ( the ones that live on land , i.e. . ) are also eaten . France alone consumes 5 million pounds Here are some more examples of molluscs commonly eaten : clams : particularly honored in the New England States of the USA , ! ! Protothaca staminea Little neck Clam Argopecten gibbus Atlantic Calico Scallop scallops : There are many different kinds ( " species " ) of scallops eaten in many parts of the world . ( Note : The " scallops " you purchase in the supermarket are in fact the muscle which the animal uses to close the two halves of its shell tightly together - called the " adductor " muscle . ) oysters : When eaten raw ( something i personally ca n ' t imagine doing ! ! ) , are often thought to be an aphrodisiac . Oysters can get expensive , which is probably why there is a recipe known as Oysters Rockefeller ! Crassostrea virginica Atlantic or Eastern oyster Perna viridis Green mussel Mytilus edulis common blue mussel mussels Note : These are especially prone to poison people ( L ) with " Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning " , which is caused by a tiny , one - celled animal called a dinoflagellate which infects mussels and other bivalves from time to time . They produce a strong poison that affects your brain and nerves , and which has made millions of people sick over the years : NEVER eat mussels or any other bivalve when you do n ' t know if the area has a problem with this deadly kind of food poisoning ! ! ! In a long - term survival situation , you could perhaps eat a very small nibble , then wait a day or two to see if you get ill , but even this is not advised . ) whelks : VERY big in Japan , and the French pickle them for winter eating ! ! Buccinum undatum Common Northern Whelk Cerastoderma edule Common edible cockle cockles : ( Europe & Malaysia ) - as in Mary Molone , who cried " Cockles and mussels , alive , alive - o ! " conchs : produce a large amount of meat , and are especially treasured in the Caribbean region , where the giant Pink ( or Queen ) Conch is farmed extensively , in man - made ponds , or sheltered bays . Stombus gigas Giant Pink or Queen Conch Loligo spp , Illex illecebrosus California or Market squid squid & octopus : Particularly popular in Japan , but is catching on in parts of the Western World . In Newfoundland ( Canada ) , they are used by the ton as bait for several kinds of fish . ( Note : Some octopuses and squid are incredibly smart ! ! They are capable of learning to solve problems and do mazes - pretty clever for a mollusc ! ) pen shells : ( Japan and the Mediterranean ) Pinna nobilis Pen or Fan Shell Bathybembix bairdii Baird ' s topsnail top shells : ( These are shaped like old - fashioned tops - pointed on one end , flat on the other . ) - Caribbean especially , where the West Indian Top Shell is considered a delicacy . abalone : a well - known delicacy in many parts of the world . Some rare species can sell for up to $ 300 a pound ( $ 760 per Kilo ) ! ! Haliotis corrugata Pink Abalone Littorina angulifera Angulate or Mangrove Periwinkle periwinkles : These , once again , are much loved by the French , who really like their seafood ! coquinas : ( Caribbean ) - Tiny clams , for chowder ! Donax variabilis Southern or variable coquina Cellana exarata Hawaiian Opihi limpets : Called " Chinaman ' s hats " for their shape , they hold onto rocks very tightly . Example : " Opihi ” , which lives in Hawaii . Chitons : Example : Pacific Northwest Native Americans ate the Giant Pacific Chiton , which gets up to 300mm ( 12 " ) long ! ! Cryptochiton stelleri Giant gumboot chiton Turbo cornutus Spiny top shell Turban shells : ( Entire Indo - Pacific , but especially Japan , where if it comes from the sea , they will eat it ! ! ! ) helmet shells : These can grow very large indeed : a 300 - 350mm ( 12 - 14 " ) Horned helmet from the Philippines could feed a whole family ! ! Cassis cornuta Horned Helmet Tridacna gigas Giant clam giant clams Although they are rare and protected today , just imagine the amount of meat a fat , 1300mm ( nearly 4 feet ! ) Giant Clam could produce ! ! The Bear Paw clam is still commonly eaten in the Philippines . Busycon carica : This is an important ingredient in the Italian dish called “ scungilli marinara ” and the Busycon is more commonly referred to as the Bulot shell . Busycon carica Knobbed Whelk Very few molluscs are actually poisonous , and a huge variety of them end up in cooking pots around the world - The animals that once lived in most ornamental shells sold in stores probably ended up that way ! Man and Mollusc now has a Data Base under construction : I am attempting to list as many edible mollusc species as possible . You can also find a lot of information on specific shells being consumed , whether or not they are commercially harvested , being raised by aquaculturists and in a few instances , I ' ve even included recipes . This is a bit advanced if you are under the age of about 12 years ; but feel free to visit the data base . I hope you enjoy this new project . Avril

in Mancala Mancala Mancala Czech Dutch Finnish French Galician German Hungarian Italian Norwegian Polish Portuguese Romanian Spanish Swedish Turkish Vietnamese Bao players in Zanzibar Mancala is a family of board games played around the world sometimes called sowing games or countandcapture games which describes the gameplay The word mancala comes from the Arabic word naqala meaning literally moved No one game exists with the name mancala the name is a classification or type of game This word is used in Syria Lebanon and Egypt but is not consistently applied to any one game Nobody knows the exact number of mancala variants More than 800 names of traditional mancala games are known which are played in 99 countries and almost 200 invented games have been described However some names denote the same game while some names are used for more than one game Some of the most popular mancala games with regard to distribution area and numbers of players tournaments and publications are Bao la Kiswahili widespread along the east coast of Africa and an integral part of Swahili culture one of the most difficult games to learn because of its rather complex rules Congkak close variants in South Asia from the Maldives to the Philippines known by many different names eg Dakon Ohvalhu Sungka Kalah the only modern game which has become a popular pastime mostly played in the USA where it is simply known as Mancala and Europe Oware close variants are played in the Caribbean and throughout western Africa also in immigrant communities in North America and Europe Toguz Kumalak extremely important in Central Asia where it is considered a sport superior to Chess Mancala games vary considerably in size The largest are Tchouba Mozambique and En Gehé Tanzania Tchouba employs a board of 160 4x40 holes and needs 320 seeds En Gehé Tanzania is played on longer rows with up to 50 pits a total of 2x50100 and uses 400 seeds The most minimalistic variants are NanoWari and MicroWari created by the Bulgarian ethnologue Assia Popova The NanoWari board has eight seeds in just two pits MicroWari has a total of four seeds in four pits Contents show General Gameplay Most Mancala games share a common general game play Players begin by placing a certain number of seeds prescribed for the particular game in each of the holes on the game board A player may count their stones to plot the game A turn consists of removing all seeds from a pit sowing the seeds placing one in each of the following pits in sequence and capturing based on the state of board This leads to the English phrase Count and Capture sometimes used to describe the gameplay Although the details differ greatly this general sequence applies to all games Equipment A swanshaped Malaysian Congkak board in the National Museum of Malaysia Equipment is typically a board with a series of holes arranged in rows usually two or four In the Horn of Africa boards with three rows are widespread one example Selus In Yunnan China a game is known Laomuzhuqi which has five rows and in Madagascar a game with six rows was described Katro Several modern games eg 55Stones Sowing Atomic Wari are played on onerow boards The number of holes per row may range from 1 NanoWari to 50 En Gehé Often the holes are just dug in the earth especially among nomadic people Sedentary groups usually prefer wooden boards Other materials are also used such as clay metal cardboard or even feces The holes may be referred to as depressions pits or houses Sometimes large holes on the ends of the board called stores are used for holding captured pieces Playing pieces are seeds stones dung balls or other small undifferentiated counters that are placed in and transferred about the holes during play Nickernuts are one common example of pieces used Board configurations vary among different games but also within variations of a given game for example Endodoi is played on boards from 2 6 to 2 10 With a tworank board players usually are considered to control their respective sides of the board although moves often are made into the opponents side With a fourrank board players control an inner row and an outer row and a players seeds will remain in these closest two rows unless the opponent captures them These games are good for getting children interacting and used to counting Children can even be encouraged to make the game themselves as follows Take two half dozen egg cartons tear the tops off them both and arrange them in a long line lid base base lid You can staple or tape them together if you wish and you can use pebbles or beads as seeds Object The object of mancala games is usually to capture more seeds than the opponent sometimes one seeks to leave the opponent with no legal move in order to win Sowing Oware players in Kumasi Ghana At the beginning of a players turn they select a hole with seeds that will be sown around the board This selection is often limited to holes on the current players side of the board as well as holes with a certain minimum number of seeds In a process known as sowing all the seeds from a hole are dropped onebyone into subsequent holes in a motion wrapping around the board Sowing is an apt name for this activity since not only are many games traditionally played with seeds but placing seeds one at a time in different holes reflects the physical act of sowing If the sowing action stops after dropping the last seed the game is considered a single lap game Multiple laps or relay sowing is a frequent feature of mancala games although not universal When relay sowing if the last seed during sowing lands in an occupied hole all the contents of that hole including the last sown seed are immediately resown from the hole The process usually continues until sowing ends in an empty hole Many games from the Indian subcontinent southern China and Vietnam use pussa kanawa laps These are like standard multilaps but instead of continuing the movement with the contents of the last hole filled a player continues with the next hole A pussa kanawa lap move will then end when a lap ends just prior to an empty hole Capturing Depending on the last hole sown in a lap a player may capture seeds from the board The exact requirements for capture as well as what is done with captured seeds vary considerably among games Typically a capture requires sowing to end in a hole with a certain number of seeds or ending across the board from seeds in specific configurations Another common way of capturing is to capture the contents of the holes that reach a certain number of seeds at any moment Also several games include the notion of capturing holes and thus all seeds sown on a captured hole belong at the end of the game to the player who captured it The history of mancala is unclear The first evidence of the game is a mancala board from the 4th century AD found in Abu Shaar a late Roman legionary fortress on the Red Sea coast Egypt A fragment of a pottery board in Aksumite Ethiopia in Matara now in Eritrea is dated by archaeologists as of between the 6th and 7th century AD The similarity of some aspects of the game to agricultural activity and the absence of a need for specialized equipment present the intriguing possibility that it could date to the beginnings of civilization itself however there is little verifiable evidence that the game is older than about 1300 years Some purported evidence comes CountandCapture Games never gained much popularity in Europe except in the Baltic area where once it was a very popular game Bohnenspiel Mancala boards were also found in a remote castle in southern Germany Schloss Weikersheim on the island of Hydra Greece and in Bosnia where it is still played and Serbia now extinct The USA has a larger mancala playing population although many of these players are descendants of enslaved Africans A traditional mancala game called Warra was still played in Louisiana at the beginning of the 20th century where numerous mancala artifacts were found at former plantation sites Perhaps the unfamiliarity with mancala games in the West is in part due to historic prejudice against primitives the assumption being that Gorens Hoyle which itself ascribes an Arab origin to the games perhaps expresses a common sentiment upon discovery of the games depth The anthropologists have not undertaken to explain how it happens that the universal game of primitive peoples is one of pure intellectual skill Mancala is wholly mathematical akin to the game of drawing pebbles from a pile in an endeavor to win the last but so complex as to remain a real contest Sowing games can be analyzed using combinatorial game theory see Jeff Ericksons article Sowing Games Even on slow hardware computer programs can easily defeat strong human players in many mancala games However this is not true for Toguz Kumalak the national game of Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan and for most fourrank mancala games such as Bao and Omweso Psychology Just like other board games mancala games have led to psychological studies Retschitzki has studied the cognitive processes used by Awale players Some of Retschitzkis results on memory and problem solving have recently been simulated by Gobet with the CHREST computer model De Voogt has studied the psychology of Bao playing See also Mancala Portal Traditional mancala games

( See http : / / www . neighborhoodarchive . com / music / songs / wont_you_be_my_neighbor . html and https : / / youtu . be / zMUGJZrR9Jg Gremlins character ( movie ) – Spike or Stripe ? The only reliable sources say it was always Stripe , not Spike . ( But , as of November 2016 , Gremlins has caved to popular memory . They actually licensed a t - shirt , calling the Gremlin “ Spike . ” ) Hand gestures in movies – Do you recall different hand gestures in movies ? For example , a more elaborate hand gesture by Antonio Banderas , with a candle , in Interview with the Vampire ? See the YouTube clip from the movie , around the 2 : 03 point . I ’ m looking for very specific descriptions of the alternate gesture . Independence Day ( movie ) — Characters now missing from a major scene ? ( This has been reported privately , twice , and we ’ re looking for confirmation from others . ) Interview with a Vampire , or Interview with the Vampire – Actually , both titles were used on published book , in this reality . So , this is n ’ t a clear Mandela Effect issue . It ’ s the Great Pumpkin , Charlie Brown , and related topics – Did the Great Pumpkin appear near the end of the holiday special , or was it just Snoopy ’ s shadow ? Was the cartoonist Charles Schultz or Charles Schulz ? ( In both cases , it was the latter in this reality . ) Jurassic Park – Original movie : Some recall a now - missing scene .

Sex and the City – Some are sure it was “ Sex in the City ” when it first aired . Star Trek memories , including : Chakotay character killed , then returns — several episodes later — without much explanation . ( I ’ ve talked about this — in person — with Robert Beltran , who played the character . He ’ s sure that version was never written or filmed . ) Star Wars – Was the iconic line “ Luke , I am your father ” or “ No , I am your father ” ? Also a missing scene . ( Not just “ deleted . ” ) Terminator ( and other movie ) variations , “ remembered ” the deleted scenes were available on DVD . Alternate late scenes and endings reported , as well . Who Framed Roger Rabbit ? ( movie ) – Different ending after initial release ? Different title ? X - Men – Some reports of alternate abilities for Professor X . Movies remembered before they were released The following movies have been “ remembered ” by people , months or years before each movie was actually released . When each person saw the film he or she reported , it was like deja vu . ( Year noted is when the film was released in reality . ) Flushed Away 2006 More news reports Twins … that are n ’ t – Reports of people who look exactly like someone ’ s twin ( not just “ somewhat like ” ) but are n ’ t actually twins .

Ronald Reagan — Varying memories about when he was president , and when and how he died . More pop culture Brian Williams ’ memories – A high - profile example of Mandela Effect , a blunder , or something else ? Gaming – Alternate Versions … ? Several reports related to different games , online and off . Life cereal commercial ( 1970s ) – Did Mikey like everything , eat everything ( or “ eats anything ” ) , or hate everything ? ( In this reality , it was “ he hates everything . ” ) See Comment thread Music – lyrics , tracks , videos , and more – All music - related topics are discussed at this article . Sara Lee products slogan / jingle – Some recall “ Nobody does n ’ t like Sara Lee , ” ( 1960s ’ commercial : https : / / youtu . be / Iirw147LHkQ ) but others recall it as “ Nobody does it like Sara Lee . ” And , they ’ re clear that they did n ’ t just mis - hear it .

Even FB pages lists Western Sizzler ( ref : https : / / www . facebook . com / pages / Western - Sizzler - Auburn - Alabama / 183908811678962 ) . ( In every case , the latter spelling is correct in this reality . ) More spelling ( dictionary ) Definitely or definately ? Apparently , it ’ s the most misspelled word in the English language , but where did “ definately ” come from and why do people remember being taught that spelling in school … ? Dilemma or dilemna ? A lot of people seem to recall the latter ( the version with an N ) , but — in this timestream — it looks like that was never the correct spelling . Other topics Disney theme parks Disney World – Some people remember entering the Magic Kingdom through the castle . A second , alternate memory : Everything else matched the current timestream , but the castle was much closer to the end of Main Street . ( At Disney World , not Disneyland . ) Disney World – Some people recall taking a monorail from the Orlando airport directly to the Disney World property . The Orlando airport has a train , not a monorail , and it does n ’ t take people to Disney World . Disney World – A separate theme park in the Orlando ( Florida ) area .

My Wonderful Life Tuesday , July 26 , 2011 The Good Life of an Olive Garden Server So many people I know or read about on the Internet often complain about their job as servers more so than talk about the positive things . I am going to let you know what I like about being a server . Now this does not mean that I love what I do , and obviously this is not what I want to do for the rest of my life . I could write a book about what irritates me to the very core of my being about serving people , but this is going to be alllll positive ! 1 . First and foremost my favorite part of being a server , well at least at Olive Garden anyway , is flexible scheduling . My managers are most amazing at working with my availability . I pick exactly what days and hours I want to work and they work with me and give that to me . If I want to take a vacation for a week or two , they let me have it ! ! ! I think being a server is a perfect job for a stay at home mom that wants to make a little extra money . She would n ' t have to work long hours , and can pretty much pick out her schedule . I can 2 . The money is pretty good . ( Tips , not hourly . Which by the way is only 2.13 an hour ) Sometimes I am there for maybe three hours , and make $ 30 - $ 50 . That ' s around 10 to 16ish dollars an hour . Not bad . Of course there are times I make more . A double , well a good double with a hour or two break in between , I can make up to almost $ 100 . So it ' s not bad . 3 . I meet a lot of interesting people . Enough said . 4 . Uniforms . The great thing about wearing a uniform is that I do n ' t have to think all night what I am going to wear to work the next day . It ' s the same thing everyday , and that ' s ok with me . ( Even though jeans would be nice . Staying positive . ) I do n ' t have to spend a bundle of money buying clothes that I would if I worked somewhere that did n ' t require uniforms . I work 4 days a week , one day being a double 5 . Serving keeps me mentally alert ! ! If you think just anyone can serve , that a monkey could do my job , well you are wrong ! So wrong ! ! ! It ' s all about multi - tasking . I ' m back in the kitchen making 3 salads ( because I got triple sat ) , one being with ranch dressing instead of the standard Italian , the next having no onions with extra olives and one tomato , to a salad with Romaine lettuce instead of the iceberg mix with ranch and italian on the side ( one person want ranch ) 6 . Shifts are easily covered or picked up . This kind of goes along with my number one , flexible scheduling . If at last minute Dan and I decided to go out of town the day after tomorrow , I can find a server who will work it for me . If I am running low on money because I just blew all my money while out of town , I can most of the time find someone who wants to give their shift away . Another one of my favorite things about being a server . 7 . Exercise . As I said in number 5 , serving keeps my brain ticking and my feet running . I am constantly walking back and forth , carrying heavy trays of food and drinks . I keep my phone which has a pedometer in my pocket during my shifts , and on a busy day I have walked 6 - 8 miles . Even on a slower day I walk alot ! 8 . Discount on food ! With all that walking , I get hungry ! ! I get a 50 % discount within an hour before and / or after my shift . And I get 25 % off up to 7 friends and family when dining in . Not only that but I get a discount at other Darden restaurants like Red Lobster , Longhorn Steakhouse , Bahama Breeze , The Capital Grille , and Seasons 52 . YUM ! 9 . Our beloved bussers who work their little butts off . I can really appreciate our bussers here at Olive Garden , because they do alot , and to me they get little recognition . They of course clean our tables , help bus our tables , grab dirty plates out of my hand before I can make it back to dish , & set the tables . They do all the side work that at other restaurants servers would normally do like get ice , make teas and lemonades , clean side stations , supply clean dishes . They even help out with the tables sometime by providing refills ! 10 . I can make people happy ! I love to make people happy , to see them smile , to enjoy themselves . So when my guest tell me what a great job I did in serving them and how wonderful the food was , it makes me feel good . A little sense of accomplishment . Even the little things like when I leave them a little note with their check . I had a sweet elderly couple that was so happy that I left them a note saying how much I enjoyed waiting on them and to have a wonderful day . She told me So this is the top 10 reasons I love being a server at Olive Garden ! ! I hope I did n ' t bore you too much ! ! ! Thanks for reading ! ! ! Yummy Olive Garden Posted by mandy06 at 3 : 24 PM Email This BlogThis ! Share to Twitter Share to Facebook Share to Pinterest 3 comments : OG Server March 31 , 2013 at 10 : 25 PM Thanks ! Very inspirational & positive . I just started working at OG & it ' s so easy to forget the positive things when it ' s tough . Thanks so much for the confidence boost . Reply Andrew Lindley December 2 , 2013 at 11 : 58 PM I am just starting at OG and your blog has given me a lot of positive insite . thank you for your positive attitude and willingness to share . : ) Reply Kevin Ellis January 7 , 2014 at 9 : 46 PM Thanks alot ! ! I am a few months in at OG as a busser and I love it . I should say loved it as next week I will begin training as a server . Which is what brought me to this blog . Thank you very much , very refreshing to hear ! Also here in CT I was frowning at the server minimum wage being $ 5.35 , but I ' m guessing it wo n ' t matter much after I get the hang of it .
