There are certain tools in the VoIP industry that help VoIP providers manage and secure their networks using a variety of available softwares and hardwares. These tools help ensure the smooth running of your operations and cutting of costs.
With the rise of VoIP businesses, software that ties in all things VoIP for the customer has become critical for VoIP providers. Services that help manage billing, invoicing and everything else in between can help your VoIP business stay ahead of the rest. A single solution to managing all aspects of cloud services that allows users to sell, deliver, manage and invoice is a great way to satisfy customer needs. Below are things to consider in choosing the most appropriate tools to ensure your customers get the best service.
To help monitor your VoIP network, you need specialized software that analyses network strength, call conditions and other issues, allowing you to ensure call quality and reliability.
Management tools are offered as a standard part of PBX systems features and handle a variety of tasks designed to help VoIP providers with the running of their business. However, standard VoIP systems are limited in what they can offer, so VoIP providers are increasingly seeking additional network management tools to enhance existing capacity. This is despite some businesses choosing to stick with PBX systems management tools, even with the evidence suggesting that adding extra IP telephony management tools to your system actually saves costs.
The ability to monitor the capacity of WAN infrastructure to handle VoIP calls allows you to continuously measure the quality of VoIP services, providing insights into VoIP network performance including packet loss, delay, and jitter. Other features offered with monitoring include performance reporting, where analyses of the source provide you with statistics on packet loss, delay, and jitter values, which, in turn, help you understand which side of the call experienced poor VoIP quality and why.
Other VoIP analysis tools can track key metrics like call control and signaling, VoIP call status and caller details. This information can be helpful to you in many ways.
A variety of tools exist to help manage and maintain your VoIP system, the three above are a great starting to point to ensure your operation are smooth and reliable.

TBTB Adventure Camp is a full week of fun and activities created especially for your dog. In addition to chaperoned leash walks, your dog will be taken to the beach daily. Homer beaches are extremely dog friendly and our canine friends are free to run, romp, swim, sniff, and dig until their heart’s content.
These basic doggie activities satisfy their natural instincts. There will be a weekly field trip across the bay for a trail adventure in the national park. Your dog will be transported on a chartered dog-friendly boat along with two chaperons. Weather permitting there will be shorter hikes on the trails in Homer during the week.
Your dog will be served two delicious meals per day; the evening meal will be served in a Kong. Kong dining provides your dog a fun challenge and daily mental stimulation that house dogs often lack. With only 5 dogs permitted in camp per week, we have lots of time to pamper your dog.
Homemade training treats will be given throughout his stay to reward your dog for good behavior. He will also have a pup tent of his own for private napping, or if he prefers he may sleep on the couch. Your dog will be drinking Pup-Pop filtered water treated onsite.

In an organized classroom setting your dog will learn to sit, stay, down and come through repetition and rewards. The daily one-hour class will introduce him to focusing on the task at hand with the distraction of other dogs in the room. Practicing what is learned is essential and will be an ongoing focus for your dog while he is involved in other activities at camp.
He will receive five basic lessons and will present what he has learned to you when you return. You will receive a review of your dog’s progress and continued recommendations to follow at home.

Frigola Hotel, Lloret de mar...we stayed here in May 2011 and it was truly awful!. It was very cheap and so we didnt have high expectations, I do understand that generally you get what you pay for but this place was appalling.
Run down and dirty with staff that were resigned to a summer of abuse from the very young, noisy guests...its a problem.
The reception staff were fine with us because we didnt complain, we are older and I speak Spanish, in fact they even offered us a room at the top of the hotel as it was less noisy but the thought of being in a lift with any of the youngsters was enough to persuade us to stay put on the first floor.
When you return to the Frigola at night, there are TWO guards in reception watching for trouble, which is fine downstairs, unfortunately they dont stop the 5am football games upstairs or the door slamming or shouting, there is never a minute of the day or night that is quiet in this hotel.
The Frigola hotel is too run down to attract family tourism and of course the 'cheap' youngsters often forced to stay 3 or 4 persons to a scruffy room designed as a twin, have no respect for the place/people at all...its a problem.

I have written before about synaesthesia and how it effects me personally, and relates to my experience of music, both playing and listening to it.
Synaesthesia is a physiological ‘condition’ (I hesitate to use this word, as I am in no way disabled by it), which literally means “a fusion of the senses”. Its incidence is considered to be about one in every two thousand people, though it may be far commoner, since its “sufferers” do not regard it as a condition for which they should seek help from a psychologist or neurologist. It is more common in women than in men. Musical synaesthesia is “one of the most common [forms], and perhaps the most dramatic” (Oliver Sacks). It is not known whether it is more common in musicians or musical people, but musicans are more likely to be aware of it. I have always had it, and until quite recently, I assumed that everyone else had it. It was only at dinner one evening, when I revealed that Monday is always red, Thursday is a brownish-mauve, and the key of B-flat major is sea-green, and my friends looked at me slightly askance and declared “You’re nuts, Fran!”, that I realised I was one of the one in two thousand….
A quick browse of the internet threw up some interesting articles, including colour analyses of some of Beethoven’s music, including the Kreutzer Sonata and the Pathetique. However, these are not the work of a synaesthete; rather a means of mapping the music in a more visual, easy-to-follow way.
The most common form of synaesthesia is the experience of colours linked to letters and numbers (‘grapheme-colour’ synaesthesia), which is what I have.
Synaesthetes are often highly intelligent, ambidexturous, creative individuals, with excellent memories.
Synaesthetes are not mad! Nor is true synaesthesia a form of hallucination (though the drug LSD can induce temporary synaesthesia): for each synaesthete, their particular experience is unchanging.
Aristotle wrote that the harmony of colours was like the harmony of sounds. This set the stage for a later connecting of specific light and sound frequencies, as Aristotle’s works were translated and incorporated into European scientific study. From the late 15th century, academics, scientists (including Isaac Newton) and musicians were assigning colour schemes to notation, intervals, and the musical scale. Musicians who were genuine synaesthetes include Franz Lizst, American pianist and composer, Amy Beach (1867-1944), who had both perfect pitch and a set of personal colours for musical keys, Rimsky-Korsakov, and Olivier Messaien. Scriabin claimed to have synaesthesia, but it is more likely that he was simply responding to the then salon fashion for “colour music”, and the writings of Russian mystic Madame Blavatsky, founder of the Theosophical Society. Founder of the Futurist movement in art, Marinetti, aspired to have all the senses (he counted five) employed in “interactive synesthetic ecstasy”, and The Futurist Manifesto includes suggestions as to how colours, shapes and sounds combine, which has influenced composers and musicians, as well as artists. English composer Sir Arthur Bliss wrote a Colour Symphony, but this is not the product of a synaesthetic mind. Like Scriabin, he was influenced by the idea of “colour music”, though it was not a mystic association for him but rather a response to the symbolism usually associated with the colours of the English heraldic tradition.
Messiaen’s music, for me, vibrates with colour. The fourth Vingt Regard, which I am studying, is full of chords with rich layers of colours stacked atop one another, flashes of bright gold, orange, royal blue, deep red. Combinations of colours were very important in his compositional process. “I see colours when I hear sounds, but I don’t see colours with my eyes. I see colours intellectually, in my head.” He found that raising a note an octave produced a paler shade of the same colour, while lowering the note produced a darker hue. Only if the pitch altered would the colour change (my experience is identical). His colour associations were very consistent (as mine are), and so to help musicians understand his particular colour schemes, he annotated his scores with the precise colours he perceived. The piano part, in the second movement of his extraordinary and moving Quartet for the End of Time, written in a German PoW camp in 1940-41, contains the instruction to aim for “blue-orange” chords, a difficult concept for a non-synaesthete to grasp, perhaps.
I have yet to meet a fellow synaesthete who is also a musician. The subject fascinates me, in a non-scientific way, and I would be delighted to hear from other musicians who also see colours, either when they listen to music, or when they read it off the score. My experience tends to be more intense when I am actually reading music.
A friend (and lover, as it turned out) of my mother, who fancied himself as a unreconstructed hippie and who used to smoke hand-rolled joints in the back garden of our house in the leafy commuter town of Rickmansworth, gave me a new compilation tape every birthday during the years that he and my mother enjoyed an association. For my 18th birthday, it was a collection of songs from the year of my birth, 1966, which was quite inventive. I used to play it a lot, and it included tracks like ‘Paint it Black’ and ’19th Nervous Breakdown’ (The Rolling Stones), ‘Summer in the City’ (The Lovin’ Spoonful), ‘Shapes of Things’ (The Yardbirds), and ‘Sunshine Superman’ (Donovan). At the time, I was deeply into late 60s bands like The Doors and Jefferson Airplane, and female protest singers such as Joan Baez, Janis Joplin and Joni Mitchell. The compilation tape, made for a friend, or, more significantly, a boyfriend, became a vehicle for unexpressed or inexpressible emotions and barely-concealed longing.
On a radio programme I caught the other day, one of the guests was lamenting the demise of the compilation tape, now that we don’t have cassette players any longer. But with the advent of iTunes and similar music programmes, it is possible to create compilations and “mixes” once again – and it’s a whole lot easier these days because you simply “drag and drop” the tracks into the new playlist. Newer versions of iTunes have a neat function called ‘Genius’ which will create compilations for you, based on a highlighted track. It looks clever, as if the artificial intelligence of iTunes is able to match certain tracks with others to create a coherent playlist, but in reality all it is doing is using some kind of techie ju-ju and searching by genre and tempo. It copes less well with classical music, for example, pairing a Bach Cantata with a Chopin Prelude.
I still make my own mixes, mostly for listening in the car. I do not have a CD player in the house any longer: when it finally gave up the ghost last year, I didn’t bother to replace it. Instead, all my music is stored on the main house computer and is streamed to a high-quality sound system in the sitting room via the magical gadget that is Apple TV. I also have a very old, now very collectible first generation iPod, on which almost my entire music library is stored. The iPod is so old (barely 10 years!) that its battery no longer charges, but it works off the mains and can be plugged into the hi-fi. So I make ‘mixes’ for long car journeys, a trio of CDs especially for the campervan (when I had it), or for 8-hour drives down the autoroute to the Alps when you need stuff you can sing along to to keep you awake (‘Hallejulah’ by K D Lang was popular at Christmas!). I also keep a CD of my current repertoire for listening to when I’m driving. Then there’s ‘Chopin Favourites’, ‘Schubert Favourites’, ‘Shorter Beethoven’ and ‘Oddments’, a collection of mostly piano music ranging from Bach to John Adams which just seems to fit together nicely. and is enjoyable and stimulating to listen to.
One of the best features of iTunes is that you can purchase a single track, rather than a whole album. So I bought Sheila Chandra’s ‘Ever So Lonely’, hit the Genius button, and hey presto! there was an hour of mostly ‘ambient’ music which seems to suit the late evening when everyone’s had one too many glasses of wine and wants to chill on the sofa. Brian Eno’s ‘An Ascent’ (from the ‘Apollo Atmospheres and Soundtracks’ album) threw up an even more laid back mix via the power of Genius.
I’ve found a truly charming and very unusual venue for my Christmas concert – and it’s only 10 minutes from where I live.
There are many hidden gems in and around London which serve as music venues. Last summer, I discovered Sutton House, a fine Elizabethan building in Hackney, managed by the National Trust. It boasts a charming, intimate and friendly recital space, and in the interval you can enjoy drinks and strawberries and cream in the pretty courtyard. I was impressed not just by the space but by the audience when I visited last summer: a very different crowd from the Wigmore, and one sensed a great deal of support and enthusiasm from the audience throughout the performance.

The place we stayed, Yukawa Onsen, is an excellent place. They provide ice climber reduction, and in fact on that evening only ice climbers were there.
Dinner and breakfast was excellent, and Masumi and I even got our meat-free diet. During the dinner we chatted with other ice climbers, got lots of good tips, and made new friends.

Great things and people that I discovered, learned, read, met, etc. in 2012. No particular ordering is implied. Not everything is new.
A short lesson in perspective — easily the best post of 2012 in my mind.
The personal analytics of my life — Wolfram’s dogged drive to collect data on his life, day in, day out, over the course of decades.
A Yesod tutorial — I had great plans to create something with this post as a basis, but alas… still a great post though.
APL is more French than English — I had never read this before this year and loved it.
How to Host a Dungeon — A highly addictive game that I found this year.
Engelbart’s Violin — A beautiful post about keyboards and chording and enhancing the human potential.
10 Technical Papers Every Programmer Should Read (At Least Twice) — My most popular post of 2011 was also my most popular of 2012 — go figure.
Warren’s Abstract Machine: a tutorial reconstruction by Hassan Aït-Kaci — I’ll need to go through this a few more times to truly get it, but it’s clear that it’s something special.
Real World Haskell by Bryan O’Sullivan, Don Stewart, and John Goerzen — I’m not sure why I waited so long to read this, but I’m thankful that I finally did.
The Recursive Universe: Cosmic Complexity and the Limits of Scientific Knowledge by William Poundstone — A beautiful book about cellular automata that I learned of via the inimitable Reginald Braithwaite.
Bootstrapping: Douglas Engelbart, Coevolution, and the Origins of Personal Computing by Thierry Bardini — a wonderful book about one of the true pioneers of computing, his philosophy and his dismissal that I found via Stanislav Datskovskiy.
Mindstorms: Children, Computers, And Powerful Ideas by Seymour Papert — I’ve read bits and pieces of Papert’s works, but I finally had the pleasure to read his most famous work.
Electronic Music Review — a long dead journal, but still a compelling read.
Borges: A Life by Edwin Williamson — an account of the life of one of my favorite authors who was less messed up than I thought.
In Patagonia by Bruce Chatwin — I’ve wanted to read this for years, but could never find an affordable copy. It was well worth the wait.
The Idiot by Dostoevsky — through some odd confluence of events I’ve never read Dostoevsky, so it was very nice to finally read this tense, yet approachable work.
Botchan by Natsume Soseki — written in 1906 in Japan this book has a surprisingly modern feel.
The Machinery of Life by David Goodsell — learned of this through Alan Kay and was blown away by it. Amazing illustrations and understandable explanations are a humbling inspiration for someone who’s tried to teach a technical topic.
The Star Rover by Jack London — in American high schools many kids are made to read London’s Call of the Wild. A truly progressive school would assign this gem.
The Rings of Saturn by Sebald — falls right in the vein of House of Leaves, Kafka, Ovid and the works of Borges.
My wife, my kids, Chris Houser, Rich Hickey, David Nolen, Stuart Halloway, Russ Olsen, Peter Seibel, Sam Aaron, Brenton Ashworth, Craig Andera, Brian McKenna, Outlaw Vern, Jim Weirich, Jeremy Ashkenas, Oleg Kiselyov, Dave Herman, Mahmud, Carin Meier, Ambrose Bonnaire-Sergeant, Phil Bagwell, and Reginald Braithwaite.
More Ruby — I pulled this off while working at Relevance but have scaled back since leaving. I do miss it from time to time.
Make my way through the core.logic README — My trip through the README turned into an enormous yak shave. However, I think the core.logic plan was satisfied in other ways.
Holy smokes, man. How do you get all this stuff done? Reading all this gives me the impression that you do little besides read and code.
I’m soooo happy for you. And envious. The moment when one first discovers Klaus Nomi is magical. The wondrous consternation, the disbelief, and then its utter suspension.
And Ulysses is overrated. Don’t sweat it.
I’d skip Snow Crash. Long story short: Online game is used as a trojan horse to deliver a virus to the brains of hackers themselves; it’s mutating virus that crosses from the virtual to the bio. And then the samurai swords come out. Very creative and cutting edge (written in ’92, it predates 2nd Life & WoW by at least 10 years). However, not Stephenson’s best writing. I think Cryptonomicon (the usage of “computers” in WWII to crack code) is a better subject and is better written.
I’ll have to do some serious reading before I can comment on much else that you posted here. Thanks for links!
Great selection, but my bigger question is how on earth do you find all this time for reading with kids? My wife and I have our first, now one year old, and my reading has ground to a near-halt.
find all this time for reading with kids?
My kids are older. It’s definitely easier to find time now then it was when they were 1.

Xiaomi launched the Redmi Y1, a budget smartphone under the new ‘Redmi Y’ series in India earlier this month. This introduced in China recently as Redmi Note 5A. This comes after a successful Redmi 4 that was launched earlier this year. This also comes with a 16-megapixel front-facing camera that you rarely see in smartphones in the price range. Specifications of the phone look impressive for the price, is this one of the best in the price range? Let us find out in the review.
We recently unboxed the Redmi Y1, check out the video below.
The Redmi 4A has a 5.5-inch HD 2.5D curved display with a resolution of 1280 by 720 pixels and a pixel density of about 267 PPI. It has 1000:1 contrast ratio, 72% NTSC color gamut and 450 nits brightness. The phone also has Corning Gorilla Glass protection. The display is bright, colors are vibrant and the sunlight legibility is good as well. Even though the pixel density is less than the 5-inch HD screen on the Redmi 4 and 4A, the display is good for the price.
There is a black border around the display, which might look weird for some. It is 153 mm tall, 76.2mm wide and has a screen-to-body ratio of about 72%, which is similar to most of the phones with a 5.5-inch screen.
Under the display options there are different options to adjust colors and contrast based on your preference. There is also reading mode that lets you reduce the display’s blue light emission so it doesn’t cause eye strain when you are reading at night.
It has a 16-megapixel camera above the display, next to the earpiece and there is also an LED flash light on the right side, next to the usual set of ambient light and proximity sensors. There is also a notification LED next to the camera, which is hardly visible when it’s off. It also has a gyroscope and a magnetic sensor, otherwise known as a magnetometer.
The usual menu, home, and back buttons are present below the display. These are not backlit but offers haptic feedback when pressed.
Xiaomi doesn’t miss out the Infrared sensor on the top for Remote function. 3.5mm audio jack and a secondary microphone are present on the top. Micro USB slot is present on the bottom and the loudspeaker is present on the right side of the USB slot, while the one on the left just houses a microphone. On the right side, volume rockers and the power button are present and the SIM and microSD slots are present on the left side.
Unlike its earlier phones, Xiaomi has finally added a dedicated dual SIM and microSD slots arranged in a single tray. This is a welcome move.
The phone has a 13-megapixel rear camera with LED flash on the back. There is also a fingerprint sensor below it. Even though the phone has a large 5.5-inch screen, the fingerprint sensor is easily accessible when holding the phone on a single hand. The back has a brushed metallic finish and the phone has an aluminium alloy frame to reduce the heat, according to the company. The back is a bit slippery for one-handed usage. It has a 3080mAh built-in battery. It weighs 153 grams, which is good considering the huge battery.
The Redmi Y1 comes with a 13-megapixel rear camera with LED flash, PDAF and f/2.2 aperture. It also has a 16-megapixel front-facing camera with LED flash, 5-element lens, 76.4-degree wide-angle lens, OmniVision sensor and f/2.0 aperture.
The camera UI is familiar with other Xiaomi smartphones with flash and HDR toggles on the top, front camera toggle on the bottom along with option to select modes (Panorama, Timer (3 to 10 seconds), Audio trigger, manual mode to adjust white balance and ISO (100 to 3200), Straighten, Beautify, HHT (Hand held twilight), Scene and Tilt-shift to blur a part of an image. It has image preview window, camera and video buttons on the right side. For the front camera, it has beautify mode, pro mode and smart mode that guesses your age using facing recognition algorithm.
Coming to the image quality, daylight shots are good in bright conditions and some images are dull when it’s cloudy, HDR shots better, macro shots are good. Low-light shots have a lot of noise as usual. Images with flash are good and the flash is not overpowering. At the launch the company said that the front camera uses pixel binning to reduce noise and for clearer and sharper final image. Daylight front camera shots are good, but in low-light you can see a lot of noise in the image even when LED flash is on. Overall the phone has a good selfie camera, but the rear camera is just average.
It can record videos at 1080p resolution at 30 fps. Video quality is decent and the audio is crisp, thanks to the secondary microphone. It has time-lapse, but doesn’t have slow-motion video recording. Check out the Full HD video sample below.
Unlike most of the budget Redmi smartphones that run Android 6.0 (Marshmallow), this runs Android 7.1.2 (Nougat) out of the box with MIUI on top. Our unit was running MIUI 9 Global Beta. The company has already started testing stable ROM and should push out the final update in the next few days as it had promised.
MIUI 9 adds a lot of features including improved notifications, split screen, improved apps like Mi Drop to transfer of files between any Android device without requiring an internet connection. It also has new App Vault feature that shows shortcuts to access apps quickly by when you swipe left in the homescreen. You can add up to 8 shortcuts. There is also App lock that lets you protect your apps with a password and the dual apps feature lets you run app like WhatsApp with two different accounts at the same time.
Out of 3GB RAM, you get 2.8GB of usable RAM, and 1.5GB of RAM is free when default apps are running in the background. Out of 32GB, you get 23.49GB of free storage since OS and apps take over 7GB of space. The built-in Cleaner inside the storage lets free up space by clearing cache and obsolete files.
Apart from the usual set of utility apps, Google apps and Xiaomi’s own set of apps, it comes pre-loaded with Amazon Shopping, WPS Office and UC News apps. You can easily uninstall these apps.
Since the phone has an infrared sensor for remote function, it comes with Mi Remote that lets you control your home appliances easily. It worked flawlessly with Airtel Set-top box, Samsung TV and AC. It also supports A/V receiver, DVD Player, Projector, Camera and more.
The phone has a fingerprint sensor on the back. It immediately unlocks phone just by keeping your finger on the home button so that you don’t have to press it. You can add up to 5 fingerprints.
The Mi Music Player is the default music player. There is also equalizer. It also has FM Radio with recording. Audio through the speaker is decent. Since the speaker is present on the bottom, audio doesn’t get muffled when the phone is on a flat surface. Audio through earphones is good as well.
It has the usual set of connectivity features such as Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.2, GPS + GLONASS. It also has USB OTG support that lets you connect external drives. It has 4G connectivity and also has Voice-over-LTE (VoLTE) support for Reliance Jio. Both the SIMs support 4G, but you can enable 4G only in one SIM at a time, while the other goes to 3G. You can set preferred SIM for a voice call, text and data from the SIM card manager. It also has LTE band 1 (2100MHz) for Vodafone 4G in some circles, unlike some Redmi phones that lack it.
The dialer and messaging UI are similar to other Xiaomi smartphones running MIUI 9. Since this is a dual SIM phone, you get the option to select either SIMs when calling or sending a text message. There are no call drops and the earpiece volume is good.
Coming to the performance, the phone is powered by an Octa-Core Snapdragon 435 Mobile Platform with eight ARM Cortex A53 cores clocked at 1.4GHz per core and has 3GB or 4GB of RAM depending on the model. The performance is good without any lags. It get a bit heated on intensive gaming and 4G data use, but it doesn’t too hot to handle. It also has a Adreno 505 GPU that offers good gaming performance. Since the phone has a HD display, the SoC coupled with up to 4GB is more than enough to power the phone. That said, check out some synthetic benchmark scores below.
It scored 45551 points and topped the AnTuTu Benchmark 6.
It scored 675 points in Geekbench 4 Single-Core benchmark and grabbed the second spot.
It scored 2573 points in Geekbench 4 Multi-Core benchmark and grabbed the second spot.
It scored 9932 points and topped the 3D Mark Ice Storm Unlimited GPU benchmark.
Coming to the battery life, the 3080mAh (typical) / 3000mAh (minimum) built-in battery offers decent battery life, even though the it doesn’t have a huge battery like a Redmi Note 4 or the Redmi 4. It lasts for a whole day even with heavy use

In just a few days it will be time to celebrate one of the diciest holidays of the year: New Year's.
New Year's (well New Year's eve) can be fun, but can also be miserable because the parties are often bad, transportation is usually scarce, and there are expectations about staying up late.
Exactly 100 years ago today, someone named David Epstein wrote this great letter to the New York Times slamming the celebration. Hilary Sargent dug it out of the archives and tweeted it yesterday.
UPDATE: And here are some more letters from the same date, which show that the more things change, the more things stay exactly the same.

Have a Jennings Victory Chief. Have to manually return handle after each play. Took pump apart. Large rubber gasket around front of the push rod looks good. Small rubber (?) gasket on inside of cap is worn. Several questions. What do I replace the small gasket with & should it be glued to the inside of the cap? Is this an air cylinder only -- no fluid? After cleaning the cylinder should the rod be oiled or greased? Anything else to know? Thanks!
The pump head is not rubber. It is made of leather. Very hard to find a replacement, Usually go buy some leather scraps if you have a leather store or buy a pair of cheap leather gloves a cut them up to the size your original pump leather is. The plunger side should not have anything around it, it should be free moving.
Thanks mechanic. Neophyte here. So I cut the leather to fit snugly around the push rod & glue it to the back cap? The plunger looks good & moves freely. Anything else to know?
No glue !! Just screw the new leather to the rod and ease it into the tube. Clean tube and all other parts first. A little oil on the rod 3 in one or 30 weight just with a cloth or use your finger. That should be about it.
Thanks again. Will do & post result. Just 1 more question as the leather was totally deteriorated. Should I cut it the size if a nickel or as large as the cylinder?
Take the original leather off and flatten it to get your diameter. It should fit over the brass spokes. then you carefully slide it into the cleaned tube. Suction should be right away. Then reassemble.
Thanks to both of you. Just bought 2 just in case. This forum is so great! Nice to know help & support is just a few clicks away.

Santa Monica, CA, July 8, 2016 – Skydance Television today announced that award-winning producer-writer Marti Noxon, who has a multi-year overall development deal with the Company, has named Maria Grasso to the newly created position of President of Tiny Pyro, effective immediately. Grasso will report to Noxon and in her new role will oversee all development for Noxon’s production company, including Skydance’s Dietland, an adaptation of the novel by the same name written by Sarai Walker. Set against the backdrop of the beauty industry, this part character drama and part revenge fantasy will explore society’s obsession with weight loss and beauty in a bold, original and funny way. Tiny Pyro was founded in 2015 and in addition to its current production of CBS medical drama Code Black, has multiple projects in development.
“As our priority development slate with Skydance Television rapidly expands, I am thrilled to have found in Maria a new creative partner to help shepherd Tiny Pyro’s efforts in bringing a diverse slate of high quality series to the screen,” commented Marti Noxon.
“Maria is an extremely accomplished creative executive whose depth and breadth of experience will serve as a strong extension to Skydance Television’s already highly productive working relationship with Marti and the Tiny Pyro team,” added Marcy Ross, President of Skydance Television.
“I have long admired Marti’s talent and taste in material. At the same time, I am so impressed with Skydance Television’s deep commitment to storytelling and the outstanding reputation it has earned among writers, so joining this team is an incredibly exciting next step for me and I cannot wait to get started,” said Grasso.
Grasso has vast experience as a television executive running development and programming departments at a number of networks and studios, including Lifetime, The WB, Warner Bros and Universal. She has developed and overseen production of such hit series as Supernatural, Army Wives, One Tree Hill and Everwood. At Grasso’s own production company, One-Two Punch Productions, she oversaw projects at such premium outlets as HBO, AMC and Amazon, and also executive produced Finding Carter for MTV. Deb Spera, Grasso’s partner at One-Two Punch, will continue to run the production company under a first look deal at ITV Studios America.

Music directors—traditionally known as conductors, are the artistic leaders of musical theater productions, operas and symphonies. Their job duties may vary depending on the place of work and include the selection of music needed to be performed, ensuring the musicians or cast are well-acquainted with the music, supervision in the interpretation of the music and organization of the orchestra.
Music directors have a great role to play in the casting of musicians. They are the masters of music, and without them no artistic performance is complete. The idea of music in our lives is more or less inspired by the wonderful scores these conductors create.
Music direction is among the most popular freelance options currently. With the progressive expansion of the freelance community, especially with the advent of the Internet, there is a dramatic increase in the number of work opportunities. One can establish a rich career as a music director in the freelance community by keeping in mind certain pointers. Well, now, you may wonder what those pointers are, and how to go about them.
There are hundreds of disciplines in music direction, and you will have to decide what kind of music you will be comfortable with. For example, not everyone is comfortable with orchestral music or jazz, and therefore, you will have to keenly research in this area before actually planning to become a freelance music director.
Let us just presume you know what kind of music you want to learn, then follow whatever is written in the following paragraphs and implement them with due consideration.
In addition to that, you must possess knowledge of musical instruments and other basics. While you may have acquired it through training, certificate courses or music-related degree courses may help you a great chunk in this regard. Keeping that in mind, we shall enumerate a few music schools in India, which offer a myriad of music courses.
VisvaBharati University, Shantiniketan, West Bengal is a reputed autonomous university, which offers a range of courses in music; The University of Delhi offers post-graduate degree courses in music and Ph.D. in Music; Delhi School of Music is a prestigious music school in the country, having a tie up with a number of internationally renowned music schools such as Trinity College of Music, London; KM Music Conservatory has been established by none other than A.R. Rahman and provides two globally recognized degrees in collaboration with Middlesex University, UK, etc.
In case you wish to learn music direction in a foreign institution, you may go for Royal Academy of Music, England; Berkeley School of Music, Boston; the Julliard School of Music, New York; Radcliffe Institute of Advanced Study, Massachusetts.
Formal education is important and so is the experience. The portfolio of skills must highlight your list of experiences, and to ensure you have the best of them, you will have to gain performance experience. Become an apprentice to professional music directors in the region or country, and study the art of direction more closely. Find out about orchestras in the country and work in them. In India, the Symphony Orchestra of India is a prominent symphony orchestra founded by the National Centre for the Performing Arts, Mumbai. Outside India, there are a number of orchestras such as Vienna Philharmonic, Cleveland Orchestra, Saito Kinen Orchestra, Leipzig Gewandhaus, Russian National Orchestra, etc.
Music direction is a tedious job, requiring a lot of patience, hard work, and coordination. Thus, without considerable skills, you will not be able to come up with a composition.
Interpretative skills: You must work on your interpretative skills and instincts. For that to happen, you must engage in different types of direction experiences such as a soloist, orchestral musician, chamber musician, conductor, etc. You must frequently attend musical performances and learn from them.
Communicating the thought: There is always a purpose in music. When composing a musical piece, you are trying to give melodious contours to the idea behind it. This skill is extremely difficult to explain, but those who know the overtone in the statement must have already understood.
Creating emotional responses: The music director must have the capacity to evoke sentimental, dramatic and powerful imageries. The audience must feel the message being communicated to them through music.
Deep understanding of instruments: You must be well-acquainted with all the instruments being used in the performance.
Conducting skills: There are a number of techniques involved in conducting a musical performance such as the Baton technique, which involves the ability to sustain the continuity of line, rhythm, structure and interpretative integrity throughout the performance; rehearsal techniques, which require the ability to diagnose, recognize, correct music, identify intonation problems, etc.
Inter-personal skills: You must be able to communicate your thoughts and suggestions to the musicians working along. Without injuring their dignity, you must express your disappointment but also ensure they are not discouraged in playing music.
Administrative skills: Music direction involves the interplay of a number of administrative matters such as fundraising, governance, public relations, business operations, etc. Thus, administrative skills are important for handling the operations effectively.
You can start your own orchestra and become its conductor, or become a conductor for an already established orchestra.
You may start a career in the film and music industry and offer music direction in related projects.
There is a lot of scope as a music director in religious organizations, dance troupes, opera companies, etc.
Becoming a music director is not that simple, but keeping tabs on job availability has become relatively easy. There are a number of websites that offer the convenience of finding all kinds of jobs in one place and only a few clicks away. To secure the benefits of these websites, create profiles, update a properly drafted portfolio of skills and submit applications. When creating profiles, the website will usually create a database of your preferred skills and will, accordingly, send emails whenever a job related to any of the preferred skills is posted. Examples of these websites are freelance.com, worknhire.com, letsintern.com, and linkedin.com.
The pay scale varies depending upon a host of factors such as the educational qualifications and work experience of the music director, the status of the workplace, the degree of direction involved, and whatnot. While in freelancing the freelancer often quotes the price, but if the freelancer is fresh in the field, he may not necessarily enjoy much discretion in this respect; on the other side, an experienced music director knows his value and will name the price accordingly. Thus, a lot of research is needed to be carried out.

I just want to voice my disgust at the way Joseph Kennedy, the third candidate for Massachusetts� U.S. Senate seat, was totally ignored. He was the one who had anything to say that made sense. People should listen to what he has to say, but I guess that is hard to do when you aren�t given a chance to speak as the other two were.
It was supposed to be three candidates debating, but the time that was given was not anywhere in the realm of even.
The newspaper was just as bad, because in a half-page article there is only one paragraph indicating that Mr. Kennedy was even in the race (Telegram & Gazette, Jan. 12).
I�m sick of only hearing the side of the candidates who have money. It�s supposed to be a country where everyone is equal to pursue their dream, but just remember: You can only do that if you have the almighty dollar to back you up.

This SAP Version is currently not available in the management tool. We have a pretty actual Patch level, so the question is do we need a new patch or can we use the 7.4 template? Do we need a "Sonderfreigabe"?
My apologies for the long delay, we had an outage here. The problem has been forwarded, and we expect to have an answer for you soon.
Your assumption was correct. You'd have to contact your account manager to open a Sonderfreigabe.

Your sponge STINKS! Ours DON’T!
The Problem: Standard kitchen sponges begin to smell foul within a few days use. That awful smell comes from the 10 million bacteria per square inch found in the typical sponge, making the kitchen sponge the dirtiest thing in the typical home. And you use that filthy sponge to “clean” things in your kitchen then throw it away because you can’t stand the smell. That’s gross!
The Everest™ Solution: The NoStench™ Utility Sponge is GUARANTEED not to stink for 90 days! NoStench™ technology prevents bacteria from living on / in the sponge for 90 days without using poisons! No more stench – no more spreading of those nasty germs. The non-toxic protection resides throughout the entire sponge material - it doesn’t wash out and doesn’t fade. This is the perfect utility sponge!
Each NoStench™ Sponge is unconditionally guaranteed against stench caused from bacterial growth for a full 90 days from the date of purchase. If at any time during the 90 day period the NoStench™ Sponge stinks, it can be returned for a full refund.
Ultra High Quality: NoStench™ Sponges are made with the highest quality materials and construction for the height of effectiveness and durability. Simply the best kitchen sponge available. Each sponge is 5.25 inches x 3.5 inches of fantastic cleaning and NoStench wonderment!
Detailed Science: The amazing NoStench™ Sponge is factory treated with the same revolutionary long lasting Everest™ antimicrobial that uses a physical kill of microbes NOT poisons. The factory treatment forms a nano-scale biostatic layer throughout the sponge materials. This protection is invisible and can’t be felt. It consists of millions of carbon-based nano-spikes that self-assemble in layers (see Fig 1) and bond covalently and intertwine with the sponge structure. Each nano-spike is made up of a carbon shaft with a nitrogen molecule at it’s base. The positively charged nitrogen interacts with the negatively charged germs/mold/mildew/fungus like a magnet that draws it down onto the carbon spike. The result is a physically ruptured or “stabbed” germ that can’t survive – or adapt to become resistant. Bacteria cannot get established within the NoStench™ Sponge. That is how it remains free of the foul odors germs cause! The nano-spikes are very durable and will remain viable and safely protect the sponge from bacterial contamination for at least 90 days – no matter how many times it is used or washed.
Fig 1. Self-assembled layers of the active ingredient attaches to all available bonding sites, leaving a ‘forest’ of molecules that extend from the surfaces and intertwine throughout all voids, preventing adhesion of microbes at interface, and causing a physical disruption of membrane function which causes bacterial cell death.
A recent study by an independent research lab confirmed that our treated sponges were able to kill 99.9% of 22,000,000 colony forming units (cfu) of live e.coli bacteria in 1 hour. By the 4 hour mark, our sponge had killed 99.99999% of the e.coli. And this protection lasts day after day, use after use.
* This treated item does not impart pesticide or antimicrobial properties to other surfaces.
HOW TO USE: The NoStench™ Utility Sponge is very simple to use. Use in the same fashion that you would use a traditional kitchen sponge. Use it to clean kitchen / bathroom surfaces or dirty dishes. The only requirement is that it be RINSED very well after each use. Then simply set it aside to let it dry. It will be ready to provide stench free service whenever you need it! Sponges can be washed in dishwasher or laundry without losing their antimicrobial properties.
NOTE: if food debris / dirt is not completely rinsed from the sponge, then bacteria could possibly survive ON the debris and cause odor - all that is needed to return your sponge to it’s odor-free state is to completely rinse it out and let it dry.
The Sponge That Doesn't Stink!

On Monday, the company is announcing a global research and development consortium that will tap brainpower from Samsung, China Mobile, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and other participants. The goal of the consortium, called Green Touch, will be to demonstrate dramatically more efficient wired and wireless network gear within five years.
Recognizing that networks, like data centers, don't run on good intentions alone, the head of research at Alcatel's storied Bell Labs wants telecom's top scientists to start with a blank slate and reinvent telecommunications infrastructure to use less power. If Green Touch hits its targets, the new equipment will run for three years on the power that current systems use up in just one day, said Gee Rittenhouse, vice president of research at Bell Labs and the head of Green Touch.
"What we're trying to do is really think about it afresh," said Rittenhouse, a longtime researcher at the lab. Whereas vendors today design products for high performance while also considering power requirements, Green Touch is going to design them for efficiency first while also keeping performance in mind.
"Normally, the research done today is about taking today's network and refining it ... instead of erasing the board, starting from an open mind, and building up from there," Rittenhouse said. The power-saving technology available today, even if it were applied throughout all networks, would only keep power consumption flat over the coming years, he said.
"We've never said, 'Stop. If we were to design a network that was optimized for energy, what would it look like?'"
The minimum power consumption for today's Internet and carrier networks around the world would be zero, which would be achieved by turning them all off, Rittenhouse said. Assuming no one wants to do that, the theoretical minimum power for actually running those networks would be lower than today's energy use by a factor of 10,000, he said.
Green Touch intends to achieve just one-tenth of that, but even for this effort the group wants to bring in experts from throughout the industry. In addition to Samsung, China Mobile and MIT, the consortium will include Freescale Semiconductor, SwissCom, Telefonica, Stanford University, the French National Institute for Research in Computer Science and Control, and other entities. But many other key players, such as Ericsson, Cisco and any major U.S. carrier, were not listed as members.
The most efficient parts of the global infrastructure are fiber-optic networks, which transmit streams of data as wavelengths, or colors, of light. They are nearly 100 percent efficient, according to Rittenhouse. But at the ends of those fiber networks are usually older copper wires or wireless systems that don't work as efficiently. The most waste comes from cellular systems, because they have to send a signal out over a wide area just to reach the one subscriber it is meant for, Rittenhouse said.
Though a clean-slate approach may deliver fresh ideas, it's likely to take a long time for the revolutionary products that come from Green Touch to start saving energy. Between standardization, product development and trials, it typically takes between five and 10 years after the first lab demonstrations for a totally new technology to be deployed, Rittenhouse said.
The Green Touch initiative is critical for the long-term future of communications, though it faces some challenges, according to analyst Kneko Burney of Compass Intelligence.
"There is no other objective more pressing than to ensure that the demand for energy does not exceed the limitations of our ability to generate it," Burney said in an e-mail interview.
"There does not seem to be a clear plan for Alcatel in this consortium, and the list of members is still quite modest. But, this is to be expected. It will take time for Alcatel to pull in more members and really make some scientific and technical breakthroughs," she said.
"The big question is, how long can the scientists in Alcatel do their science thing in this highly competitive market without the wolves of capitalism requiring profit-generating activities from them," Burney added.
For Rittenhouse and Alcatel, Green Touch is an aspirational as much as a practical effort.
"This allows us to set an ambitious goal, a very high bar, with an exciting possibility at the end," he said.

Today I was finally born. I’m sorry you went through so much pain, but I’m here now, and all that’s over. Now we both need to rest. Because there’s an exciting world out there for me to explore with you and Daddy!
I’m so glad to finally be out, because there just wasn’t any more room for me. But those first few minutes outside were a bit scary. It was cold, and the lights were so bright! There were people everywhere, and I didn’t know who they were. And I needed to be wrapped up really well. Those warm blankets felt so good, and my little hat with that bow on it made my head feel so warm (even though it messed up my hair)! I love bows, by the way, Mommy. I was exhausted from all of the stress of being born, and I couldn’t keep my eyes open.
But when the doctor put me in your arms, I immediately knew who you were. You see, I heard your heartbeat, and the rhythm of your breathing; I smelled your scent, and heard your voice. I managed to open my little eyes for a few seconds, and as soon as I saw you, I fell even more in love with you! And Daddy, too! I’m the luckiest baby in the world to have you two as my parents! I know you two will love me and care for me and keep me safe.
And my grandparents…I got to see them in the hallway on the way to the nursery, you know. I opened my eyes, and there was my grandmother. She’s beautiful. Just like you. And she reminded me so much of your own grandmother. I tried to smile at her, and I think maybe I did, but I was so tired. My grandfather was there, too. He looked like he was getting ready to cry. That was so cute.
Daddy never left my side while they were taking me to the nursery in that little crib, and he stayed right there until I got settled. He was making sure I was comfortable and warm, and he just couldn’t stop looking at me, and telling me how much he loved me.
After he left, the doctors kept examining me and not letting me sleep; that did get a little old after a while. But I guess it was for my own good. After giving me a quick warm sponge bath, which tickled, by the way, my nurse put a little shirt on over my head to help keep me warm before she wrapped me in the blanket. I think it’s going to take a little while for me to get used to wearing clothes, because they feel a little strange on my skin. But I know I’ll get used to them, and I know you have lots of pretty ones waiting for me at home. There was just so much going on all the time, no wonder I kept sleeping! It was exhausting!
Finally they brought me in your room. I just wanted to be with you! I love how we have those matching bracelets…you and me and Daddy! Not that you’d ever not know it was me, but it made me feel good to know they were being so careful. But that sensor tag on my ankle was a bit much, wasn’t it!? I’m sure we’ll laugh about that later.
It wasn’t easy getting the hang of that bottle either; those first few times with it I wasn’t real sure what to do. But my little tummy was rumbling so I knew I had to learn! After a few tries I caught on, and that formula tasted pretty good! You and Daddy are really good at feeding me, too. It’s such a special time together, isn’t it??
My grandmother and grandfather enjoyed feeding me, too. Grandmom holds me and talks to me, and sometimes she just looks at me and smiles and smiles! I bet she did that when you were first born, too. I can’t tell you what she was talking to me about, but I’m sure she’ll tell you one day.
Now in case you’re wondering how I’m still writing to you even though I’m finally born, and no longer inside of you, it’s really very simple. God wanted to surprise you, so He’s letting me do this for a few more days. I don’t know exactly for how long yet, so we’re just going to enjoy it while we can. I don’t think you mind, do you Mommy?
And I’m really more tired now than I was before I was born. You notice I’m sleeping most of the time, right? I have to get a lot of rest right now, so I’ll be sleeping a lot for the next few weeks. And when I get more energy we’ll have so much fun together!
What an exciting day it’s been though, right!? I’m so excited to finally be out and meeting you and all of my family! And I’m so looking forward to my new life here!!! I love you!!

CIM300 is a family of integrated products that provide the software development tools for implementing the GEM 300 SEMI standards. CIM300 is generally purchased by the semiconductor equipment supplier. It can be installed either directly onto the machine’s computer or onto a front-end computer. To implement the controlling and data gathering functionality, software developers must integrate the software with the equipment control software.
CIMConnect products provide an efficient, cost-effective method that enables equipment manufacturers to supply SECS/GEM communication interfaces to their customers. CIMConnect also offers the inherent ability for a single equipment to provide information to multiple host interfaces.
CIMPortal Plus is a software product that enables equipment suppliers to implement high speed data collection for EDA, a historical database, and other applications. CIMPortal Plus primary customers are equipment suppliers that integrate the product within the equipment control system.
SECSConnect is a software development kit for implementing either host or equipment SECS-II messaging in a software application. The communication protocol can be either SECS-I or HSMS. As a COM based library, SECSConnect is appropriate for both Factory and Equipment Supplier projects that use the Windows operating system. Software development teams can use SECSConnect as a communication driver for station controllers and/or test systems to manage and validate equipment GEM, SECS-II, and 300mm interfaces.
CIMControlFramework™ is a complete toolkit of software utilities, documentation, examples, and guidelines that enables companies to design and build equipment control software quickly for the production floor with full factory automation.
Cimetrix HostConnect is a software development kit for creating host-side applications that connect to GEM (SEMI E30) equipment over HSMS-SS (SEMI E37.1). As a native .NET library, Cimetrix HostConnect is ideal for creating traditional hosts, QA software, and factory monitoring applications.
The EDATester software is part of the complete Cimetrix EDA connectivity suite that supports both the equipment-side and the factory/client-side implementations of SEMI Standards.
TestConnect is an easy-to-use graphical point-and-click testing tool that can be used for generating and logging host or equipment SECS-II message scenarios. It can also be used to verify and characterize station controller designs or emulate equipment behavior without the need for the actual equipment or coding. The graphical user interface allows test scripts and SECS messages to be created using click, drag, and drop techniques.

Geotechnical engineering is an art and a science and can have significant project performance, safety and cost consequences. Due to the technical nature of our business, all of our geotechnical engineers have graduate degrees in the specialty, unlike many of our competitors. We understand and apply, as appropriate, the latest engineering design and analysis techniques. However, we understand the intrinsic variability of soils and resultant limitations in the application and use of theory. Therefore, we also rely heavily on our most important asset – experience. We understand construction related to earthwork, foundations, and pavement, and our influence on cost. Utilizing our technical skills, significant experience with area soils, and understanding of construction, we continually strive to provide pragmatic, cost-effective geotechnical solutions. Our clients and our business depend on it.
High quality data is critical to engineering decisions in the office and in the field. Our laboratory is accredited by A2LA (American Association for Laboratory Accreditation, Certification # 2718.02) allowing a comprehensive range of geotechnical and construction materials tests. Laboratory operations and equipment calibration are conducted in strict compliance with A2LA and the GES quality manual. Laboratory personnel undergo extensive and continual training. Testing is performed in accordance with ASTM, TxDOT, or other appropriate standards.
GES is also accredited by AASHTO (American Association of Highway and Transportation Officials). Results are reviewed and assessed daily by engineering staff for accuracy. The AASHTO Accreditation Program (AAP) is the largest accrediting body in the construction materials industry. In addition to being an AASHTO-accredited laboratory, GES has proven their commitment to quality and can set themselves apart from their competitors.

Closed parks will likely be reopened. Direction of the Department of Natural Resources will be reviewed. And $16 million in federal funding for conservation that hangs in limbo will be promptly addressed. Those are among the reasons many members of Illinois’ conservation community are optimistic about Lt. Gov. Pat Quinn replacing Rod Blagojevich as governor.
Closed parks will likely be reopened.
Direction of the Department of Natural Resources will be reviewed.
And $16 million in federal funding for conservation that hangs in limbo will be promptly addressed.
Those are among the reasons many members of Illinois’ conservation community are optimistic about Gov. Pat Quinn replacing Rod Blagojevich as governor.
“I think given Quinn’s past performance over the last six years conservation will finally have a friend in the governor’s office,” said Claudia Emken, associate director of conservation for The Nature Conservancy in Illinois. “That’s something we haven’t had in six years.
That type of advocacy is not lost on Eric Schenck, Illinois biologist for Ducks Unlimited.
“Quinn has taken genuine interest and leadership on the Illinois River Coordinating Council and has tried to set up something similar for the Mississippi River,” Schenck said.
As another example, Schenck noted Quinn’s appearance at the 2004 dedication of a restored 400-acre wetland near Spring Lake in Tazewell County.
In regards to the DNR, Quinn said he would “promptly review the DNR director’s position.” That may be bad news for former state representative Kurt Granberg, whom Blagojevich appointed as DNR director on Jan. 16.
Even so, Granberg said Quinn will be better for conservation and the DNR than Blagojevich.
Quinn also has taken an active role in attempting to head off the possible loss of $16 million in federal funds for fish and wildlife projects. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said it will withhold money if Illinois does not restore $9.25 million to six funds that receive money from hunting and fishing licenses and related fees.
The Illinois House and Senate have passed supplemental appropriation bills that have not yet been sent to the governor’s office for a signature. Quinn has said he will sign the bills upon taking office.

As a retired educator, I’m supporting Paula Stepp for Garfield County’s board of commissioners this fall because of her proven management skills, and her years of community volunteer service.
Paula has lived in Garfield County for nearly four decades, much of that time working in circulation, marketing and management for the Carbondale-based national outdoor magazines Climbing, Rock and Ice and Trail Runner. She also has worked in real estate marketing and ran her own marketing, event planning and database management consultancy.
Despite such challenges, Paula always found time to share her energy and talents with the community. Over the years, she has served on the boards of Healthy Mountain Communities, the Cooper Corner elder day care program and the local chapter of Junior Achievement. She’s mentored students in the RE-1 school district’s pre-collegiate program, served as an ESL teacher for Literacy Outreach, and volunteered at the Glenwood Springs soup kitchen, as an educator at St. Stephen’s Church, as a DJ at KDNK radio and as support staff for various races, fairs and events in the valley.
Garfield County voters have a great opportunity this fall to take a big step forward in choosing our next District 1 county commissioner. Please join me in voting for Paula Stepp, and remember to return your mail-in ballot by Nov.6.

According to Statistics Estonia, the GDP of Estonia in 2014 increased 2,1% compared to 2013. The GDP at current prices was 19.5 billion euros. The year was characterised by a slow steady growth of the Estonian economy. Trade contributed significantly to the increase in the GDP, mainly due to an increase in value added in retail trade. In addition, manufacturing and professional, scientific and technical activities contributed the most to the GDP growth in 2014.

The Irizar i8 is a luxury tourist vehicle for long journeys and other special services, equipped with the most advanced technology on the market. Travelling in the Irizar i8 is a unique experience.
Only two vehicles of this model are in Europe, one of which was made for Real Madrid.
The début of the new bus, on 27 March 2017, was marked by the arrival of the Portuguese National Team, 2016 European Champions. Photo Courtesy of Ruben Câmara.
This is the first Irizar i8 made for Portugal. Irizar Spain stopped production to get this bus ready in time for Portugal-Sweden 2018 FIFA World Cup football friendly match. The National Portuguese Team, 2016 Champions of Europe, made its fine début on March 27, 2017.
The best player in the world, Cristiano Ronaldo, travelled in this bus. Cristiano Ronaldo was born in Madeira, owns CR7 Museum and Pestana CR7 Funchal Hotel in Madeira and is one of RC TRAVEL Team sponsors, along with Galp, Ageas Seguros, RC Travel and Lux Madeira Travel Agencies.
The choice of colours for this bus, was based on the colours of VIP RC, black with gold letters and above all, because MADEIRA IS GOLD! We wanted to honour the titles that the island achieved in the World Travel Awards: The Best Island Destination in Europe (2013, 2014 and 2016) and the Best Island Destination in the World (2015, 2016 and 2017).
And because our instinct led us to the idea that a sober exterior demanded an exuberant and festive interior, we’ve created a design that would cause passengers a surprise impact, such as the Jesuits Church in Funchal. It wouldn’t be the first time that someone is inspired by our monuments. The International Airport of Madeira, renamed Madeira Airport – Cristiano Ronaldo, got its inspiration from the Gothic columns of Funchal’s Cathedral.
The gold in the corridor in straight lines conveys an air of sophistication and a modern, innovative and futuristic design, which is VIP RC brand image.
This bus offers an exceptional comfort to the Passengers, Drivers and Tourist Guides, guaranteeing an unforgettable stimulating experience.
Independent suspension to reduce the step access height.
Adaptive Cruise Control with approach sensors that help keep up a safe distance from other vehicles.
Laminated-glass windscreen and lateral windows, which crack, but remain intact when broken.

1. Entitlement to service connection for a knot in the stomach and back causing leg paralysis.
2. Entitlement to an initial rating in excess of 10 percent for peripheral neuropathy of the sciatic nerve in the left lower extremity prior to August 16, 2010, and in excess of 40 percent on and after August 16, 2010.
3. Entitlement to an initial rating in excess of 10 percent for peripheral neuropathy of the sciatic nerve in the right lower extremity prior to August 16, 2010, and in excess of 40 percent on and after August 16, 2010.
4. Entitlement to an initial rating in excess of 20 percent for peripheral neuropathy of the femoral nerve in the left lower extremity on and after December 5, 2016.
5. Entitlement to an initial rating in excess of 20 percent for peripheral neuropathy of the femoral nerve in the right lower extremity on and after December 5, 2016.
6. Entitlement to an initial rating in excess of 10 percent for peripheral neuropathy of the nerves, all radicular groups, in the left upper extremity prior to December 5, 2016 and in excess of 30 percent on and after December 5, 2016.
7. Entitlement to an initial rating in excess of 10 percent for peripheral neuropathy of the nerves, all radicular groups, in the right upper extremity prior to December 5, 2016 and in excess of 40 percent on and after December 5, 2016.
The Veteran served on active duty from January 1969 to January 1971.
These matters come before the Board of Veterans' Appeals (Board) on appeal from rating decisions entered by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Regional Office (RO) in Cleveland, Ohio.
In July 2007, the Veteran was afforded a hearing with the undersigned Veterans Law Judge via videoconference technology. The transcript has been associated with the record.
Issues considered herein were remanded by the Board for additional development in October 2007, March 2010, and May 2012. Substantial compliance with the Board's prior remand has been achieved and remand of this appeal is not required. See Stegall v. West, 11 Vet. App. 268, 270-71 (1998) (remand by the Board confers upon the Veteran or other claimant, as a matter of law, the right to compliance with the Board's remand order).
In Rice v. Shinseki, 22 Vet. App. 447 (2009), the United States Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims (Court) held that a TDIU claim is part of an increased rating claim when such a claim is raised by a veteran or otherwise reasonably raised by the record. The Court further held that when evidence of unemployability is submitted at the same time that a veteran is appealing the rating assigned for a disability, the claim for TDIU was considered part and parcel of the claim for benefits for the underlying disability. Id. An April 2017 rating decision granted the Veteran entitlement to a TDIU; thus, this issue will not be considered herein by the Board.
1. The Veteran does not have a current diagnosis attributable to a knot in the stomach and back causing leg paralysis which is related to service.
2. The preponderance of the evidence indicates that the Veteran's left lower extremity peripheral neuropathy of the sciatic nerve is no worse than mild prior to August 16, 2010.
3. The preponderance of the evidence indicates that the Veteran's right lower extremity peripheral neuropathy of the sciatic nerve is no worse than mild prior to August 16, 2010.
4. The preponderance of the evidence indicates that the Veteran's left lower extremity peripheral neuropathy of the sciatic nerve is no worse than moderately severe on and after August 16, 2010.
5. The preponderance of the evidence indicates that the Veteran's right lower extremity peripheral neuropathy of the sciatic nerve is no worse than moderately severe on and after August 16, 2010.
6. The preponderance of the evidence indicates that the Veteran's left lower extremity neuropathy of the femoral nerve is no worse than moderate on and after December 5, 2016.
7. The preponderance of the evidence indicates that the Veteran's right lower extremity neuropathy of the femoral nerve is no worse than severe on and after December 5, 2016.
8. The preponderance of the evidence indicates that the Veteran's neuropathy of the left upper extremity nerves, all radicular groups, is no worse than mild prior to December 5, 2016.
9. The preponderance of the evidence indicates that the Veteran's neuropathy of the right upper extremity nerves, all radicular groups, is no worse than mild prior to December 5, 2016.
10. The preponderance of the evidence indicates that the Veteran's neuropathy of the left upper extremity nerves, all radicular groups, is no worse than moderate on and from December 5, 2016.
11. The preponderance of the evidence indicates that the Veteran's neuropathy of the right upper extremity nerves, all radicular groups, is no worse than moderate on and from December 5, 2016.

Sigh it seems that I suffer too from this plague: some info here how to recover https://michaelkummer.com/technology/mac-bluetooth-issues-affect-keyboard-trackpad/ but nothing really working for me (yet).
Note that I did went through multiple PRAM SMS resets, full reinstalls of the OS without success. I checked also that bluetooth received signal strength was ok (RSSI -47dBm).
Only the magic keyboard and pad were connected and no Wi-Fi/BT perturbation was noticed around the iMAC.
10:41:18.868326 +0200 kernel [[0xE000] OpCode 0xFC34 (Broadcom VSC -- Enable Radio) from: bluetoothd (104) Synchronous status: 0x00 (kIOReturnSuccess) state: 2 (BUSY) timeout: 5000] Bluetooth warning: An HCI Req timeout occurred.
Disappointed, I decided to switch back to wire usb connectivity for a long time before trying to migrate to an external BT dongle.
I picked a kinivo BTD-400 bluetooth 4.0 (supporting BLE) adapter (https://www.amazon.fr/dp/B007Q45EF4/ref=pe_3044141_189395771_TE_dp_1) that is claimed to be compatible with macOS (this is not a given...).
Note that change is applied at next reboot.
In oder to undergo more advanced bluetooth debugging use bluetooth explorer program available in additional tools for xcode after registering for free as an apple developper via https://developer.apple.com/download/more/.
So far I have not been exposed (as of yet) to BT disconnectivity hell.
What can I say: it is sad that Apple has not fixed or recognize this epidemic BT failure happening for their iMAC users.

Regional Capitals Australia (RCA) has today welcomed the release of the Government’s Faster Rail Plan that will connect more regional cities to faster rail.
The announcement comes two days after the Government released details to further grow regional cities as part of their National Population Plan.
Today’s announcement was made by Prime Minister, the Hon Scott Morrison, Deputy Prime Minister, the Hon Michael McCormack, Treasurer the Hon Josh Frydenberg, and Minister for Cities and Population the Hon Alan Tudge.
A National Faster Rail Agency: which will develop a 20-year plan for a fast rail network. The agency will be supported by an Expert Panel which will oversee future opportunities for fast rail business cases, including from Melbourne to Bendigo and further work on the Ballarat line.
Sydney to Parkes (via Orange).
Faster rail business cases from Melbourne to Ballarat and from Sydney to Canberra are being funded by the Victorian and New South Wales State Governments respectively.
Geelong to Melbourne Rail Funding: $2 billion for upgrades to the Melbourne to Geelong rail line which aims to travel an average speed of 160km/h, cutting the commute from Geelong to Melbourne down to 32 minutes.
Regional Capitals Australia (RCA) Chair Cr Samantha McIntosh said the plan was very welcome, as the alliance had been strongly advocating for more investment in regional rail and for more to be done to develop businesses cases so more rail projects could be assessed and funded.
“Investment in regional rail is a key part of RCA’s objectives to ensure our member cities are better connected to metropolitan markets, while also making our cities more liveable for existing residents and those that are thinking of escaping the congested capitals,” she said.
“We congratulate the Government on their commitments to invest in this important infrastructure and the initiative to create an agency that will investigate more options for regional cities in the future,” she said.
“Regional cities are the liveable alternative and we know that today’s announcement will continue to ensure our member cities remain so,” she said.

For the past six years, my primary career emphasis has been service. Secondary emphases have been teaching and research. I transitioned to a career emphasis of service after doing mostly clinical research for over ten years. I discovered that I missed providing clinical care in general and assessment and treatment of Substance Use Disordered (SUD) patients in particular. I therefore changed my career trajectory to make better use of my clinical skills while continuing to use insights from my research experience. A career goal is to provide and continually improve effective treatments to SUD patients in the Veteran?s Health Care System. My recently completed implementation science research and ongoing teaching are designed to improve delivery of effective SUD treatment within the VA while training prescribers and other healthcare providers to effectively treat this population.
In preparation for my career path in Addiction Psychiatry, I earned undergraduate degrees in Biology and Zoology (graduating Phi Beta Kappa) and a medical degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I chose Psychiatry because for me this medical specialty was the most interesting and rewarding. After my father died from alcohol-related health problems when I was a young teen, I asked myself how I could make a difference by preventing and treating Alcohol Use Disorders. Through my graduate medical training, I have found that the best psychiatric care requires a developmental focus. This realization led to Adult Psychiatry training followed by Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Addiction Psychiatry training, after which I obtained board certification in each of those specialties.
For the past six years most of my efforts have been as Medical Director of the South Texas Veterans Healthcare System Substance Abuse Treatment Program (STVHCS SATP). I ensure that Substance-Use-Disordered (SUD) Veterans who are admitted to SATP (residential and outpatient services), are medically and psychiatrically stable at admission to our specialty programs. My daily clinical work includes doing psychiatric admissions, consults, and follow-up visits for SUD patients. This clinical care is delivered within a continuum of care that includes inpatient, residential and outpatient services. My clinical and administrative responsibilities include facilitating and coordinating interdisciplinary inpatient and outpatient treatment planning and delivery of care. Our team works hard to increase Veterans? access to SATP services, and we promote continuity and transitions in care to other Mental Health programs. I also have leadership responsibilities to help coordinate care to ensure SUD Veterans have access to ongoing primary care. I have clinical and administrative oversight responsibilities for all prescribers at SATP, including two physician assistants and an adult psychiatrist.
My love for teaching and mentoring has grown throughout my career and has led to training clinician-researchers to better assess and treat SUD populations. For the past three years, I have served as Co-Director of the VA Office of Academic Affairs sponsored STVHCS Advanced Fellowship in Addiction Treatment. This Advanced Fellowship is designed to produce clinician-researchers in Addictions Treatment. I have had major leadership and teaching roles in local curricula development for the Fellowship, as well as administrative responsibilities for recruiting, evaluating and mentoring Advanced Fellows. In addition, I teach, precept, and mentor Psychiatry residents from the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio (UTHSCSA) and other trainees, many of whom rotate through our SATP. Some of these Psychiatry residents have career interests in Addiction Medicine and Addiction Psychiatry.
My primary research and quality improvement interests focus on improved access to and transitions between SATP levels of care. Prior to becoming Medical Director of STVHCS SATP, my training prepared me for a clinician-scientist career studying adolescent and adult populations who have or are developing substance use disorders. I have been the recipient of a Mentored Clinical Scientist Development Award from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) examining developmental trajectories of children of substance-use disordered parents who are at high risk for developing substance use disorders. I have been Principal Investigator and Co-Investigator on clinical and prospective cohort studies funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), examining relationships among impulsivity, substance use disorders, and suicidal behavior in adolescents and adults. I have research experience in conducting clinical trials in SUD adolescents and adults. For the past several years, I have been doing quality improvement coaching using collaborative care models in primary care settings designed to increase prescribing rates of medications to treat Veterans with Alcohol Use Disorders.
- I am currently Site-PI for a VA funded multi-site study designed to do Screening, Brief Interventions, and increase capacity of primary care prescribers to treat Veterans Alcohol Use Disorder in primary care.
Developed local curricula and didactics for Advanced Fellows in Addictions Treatment; Topics include: twice monthly readings in Addiction Medicine (6 months duration, twice monthly for 12 sessions, 1 hour each session), and Implementation Science (6 weeks duration, meeting every other week, 1 hour session) with focus on practice facilitation in Primary care. Initial preparation: 20 hours for each topic; updates take about 10 hours each year.
Didactics on assessment and treatment of opioid use disorders; Screening, Brief Interventions, and Referral for Treatment; Case material for assessment and treatment of dual diagnosed patient (SUD and severe non-SUD psychiatric disorders); Lectures occur on each Fall and Spring. I currently teach 5 lectures, across Psychiatry PG1 and 2 SUD lecture series. Individual lectures are 30-60 minutes. Initial preparation time: 4-5 hours per lecture.

Great to have another month full of dividends! Also, this is my highest dividend income month ever. I enjoy publishing these monthly dividend income reports as I have gained a much better understanding in how much of my passive income is coming in every month and how much it is growing over time. For the month of March I have received a total of 22 diversified direct deposits in the form of dividends straight to my brokerage account.
When statistically comparing last years dividend income total from March 2018 to March 2019, it represents a positive 8.6% for a year over year increased dividend income growth.
I will DRIP the following upcoming month: VNQ & VYM.
The dividend income page has been updated accordingly.
Thank you! Sometimes its hard to perceive if you are going in the right direction and then months like these come around and shows that I am.
Thank you, the quadfecta: dividend + dividend growth + capital appreciation + inflation is doing the heavy lifting for wealth building. Very slow, but steady!

Kerstin Hörlin-Holmquist (1925-1997) was a Swedish modernist architect and designer. She is remembered today, for her ability to create designs for the modern home in the 1950’s without worrying about short lived trends and what other people thought – to stay true to her own unique and humanistic design vision.
Her timeless and iconic ‘Paradiset’ collection was created during her employment with NK – Nordiska Kompaniet in 1956-57 and holds a soft simplicity, they are unique in their appearance – light, clean lines and gracious with an air of romance. Today her designs are highly treasured collectibles and rarely to be found on auctions.

Officials in the Californian resort of Carmel-by-the-Sea, famed for its European flavour and thriving art scene, are clamping down on what they claim is a threat to its prosperity and tourist appeal - its art galleries.
The city council has decided that Carmel has too many galleries. It has imposed an emergency ban on any new studios in the 100-year-old town on the Monterey peninsula.
The resort has a population of 4,081 and 120 art galleries - one for every 34 residents.
With the number of galleries doubling in the past five years, the council fears that the glut is deterring tourists seeking leisure less high-brow than oil paintings and sculptures.
It is also concerned that essential services for local residents are being squeezed out because of the high rents some galleries can afford, in some cases up to £14,000 a month. An "urgency ordinance" was passed, temporarily barring new galleries from Carmel's business district until a law came into force this month.
The law now demands that new galleries either focus primarily on the work of one artist or have an "artist in residence" working on the premises.
Officials say the move is vital financially. The profusion of galleries has resulted in a major drop in sales tax, which is not charged on art shipped out of California. Partly due to this, the city dipped £400,000 into the red and had to lay off 20 staff.
But gallery owners say the move unfairly penalises them and ignores the significant revenue they bring in by attracting tourists.
Sue McCloud, a retired CIA agent now in her third term as mayor of Carmel, a post held by Clint Eastwood in the 1980s, said: "We felt we had too many galleries for business diversity.
"You can't get your hair cut or your shoes repaired here. We're down to one drug store for a town where the average age is 55."
Some two million tourists visit the city each year, she said. But many complained about the uninterrupted windows of art.
"Hopefully this law will, over time, reduce the number of art galleries and allow us to bring in other types of businesses that will appeal to a broader range of visitors."
Jennifer Walker, who runs the Hanson Gallery, one of Carmel's largest, has formed a group to fight the law. She said the new rule would destroy all but the biggest, commercialised galleries.
Instead of freeing space for other businesses, it would enable landlords to raise rents further.
"Like New York and Santa Fe, our village is a recognised destination for fine art," she said. "Limiting the variety and scope of art galleries would knock Carmel off the map of art destination cities.
"I don't think the town realises how much revenue the art galleries bring into the economy that other businesses would not. This is a naive decision."
Carmel, with its picture postcard views and £1 million homes, was founded by bohemian artists and writers from San Francisco. Traditionally quirky - Carmel has no house numbers or postal deliveries - the city has a history of idiosyncratic laws.
Wearers of high-heeled shoes, for example, need a permit from the city clerk to walk its uneven, unlit streets.
The permit absolves local authorities of any responsibility should the person in heels fall over.
In 1986, Mayor Clint Eastwood successfully fended off a move to outlaw ice cream cones on the street.
Carmel also has a cap on the number of jewellery shops - only 32 are allowed.

Piraeus Marine Services S.A. would like to inform you about the latest news, requirements and dates regarding the installation of the Ballast Water Management Systems.
USCG published a Policy Letter (CG-OES Policy Letter No. 13-01, Revision 1) and an associated Marine Safety Information Bulletin (MSIB 13-15) that provide revised guidance to vessel owners and operators seeking to extend compliance dates for implementing approved ballast water management methods.
The original compliance date of a vessel is determined by the following table, which reflects the implementation schedule as listed in 33 CFR Part 151.1512(b) (Subpart C) or 151.2035(b) (Subpart D).
All new vessels (constructed on or after 1 December 2013) must use an approved ballast water management method on delivery. Existing vessel’s ballast water capacity and is set as the first scheduled drydocking after 1 January 2016 or 1 January 2014.
MSIB 13-15 clarifies the term ‘first scheduled drydocking’ for the purposes of compliance with the BWM implementation schedule. In all cases, a vessel’s first scheduled drydocking date is the date the vessel enters a drydock.
If that happens sometime during 2015 and the vessel goes not leave drydock until after 1 January 2016, this drydocking is not considered the first scheduled after 1 January 2016 for purposes of compliance.
You can also visit the webpage of our BWT Unit, the ‘BlueZone BWMS’, where you may find all the necessary information you need regarding this system, which is based on the use of OZONE MICRO BUBBLES. By that, all harmful aquatic organisms and pathogens in ballast water are disinfected. The micro OZONE bubbles reduce the power consumption substantially. This method is unique and has been patented.
Here you may find all the necessary information regarding the Policy letter (CG-OES Policy Letter No. 13-01, Revision 1), the associated Marine Safety Information Bulletin (MSIB 13-15), as well as the video for the BlueZone BWMS system.

We’re nearing the end of the year, and many people are already in open enrollment for next year’s health coverage, which means it is a great time to plan ahead for your 2010 drug expenditures. No, you can’t know every medication you are going to need, but if you are on a popular, patented maintenance drug such as Lipitor or Cozaar, you’ll be pleased to hear that their patents are expiring in 2010, opening the field for more-affordable U.S. generic versions.
In the meantime, as you do your research, you will see that many are already available as generics, manufactured outside of the U.S. There is usually a considerable cost savings.
Here are all the details of some of the highest-profile drugs that have expiring patents as of the end of 2009, or during 2010 and how and where to get the generic versions.
ARICEPT (donepezil). Pfizer makes the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor Aricept for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Aricept is scheduled to lose patent protection in the U.S. in 2010, but generic versions are already available.
COZAAR (losartan). Merck’s Cozaar is an angiotensin II receptor antagonist, used to treat hypertension. Cozaar‘s patent protection in the U.S. will expire in 2010. In the meantime, generic losartan is available here.
LEVAQUIN (levofloxacin). Johnson & Johnson’s antibiotic drug Levaquin will outlive its patent protection in 2010. However, until that time, you can purchase generic levofloxacin here.
LIPITOR (atorvastatin). Pfizer has the best-selling drug in the world in Lipitor, which treats high cholesterol. In the US, the basic patent for Lipitor expires in March 2010, while the second patent covering the calcium salt of atorvastatin expires in June 2011. It is not yet clear exactly which date will see widespread availability of generic Lipitor in the U.S., but it is coming. In the meantime, generic atorvastatin is available here.
VALTREX (valacyclovir). GlaxoSmithKline’s Valtrex is a treatment for herpes simplex and herpes zoster (shingles). Valacyclovir was recently approved for generic production, and so generic versions will be on the U.S. market by the end of 2009. As of this writing, generic valacyclovir is available here.
If you’re interested in the business ramifications for the pharmaceutical companies, CNN ran a good article on the topic, and so did Chemistry World.

As you most likely already know, Woods of Ypres frontman David Gold was killed in a car accident a few days before Christmas. I'd just like to say a few things.
I only became aware of Woods of Ypres last year. I listened to Woods 4: The Green Album and became and instant fan. Later than day, I tweeted a couple thoughts about the album and before the screen had faded on my phone, David had responded to my thoughts. We had a little back and forth that day and that was it. That one brief conversation with him was the only time we ever "spoke" but it left a mark. See, I didn't initiate contact. He did. He was actively seeking out comments about Woods of Ypres and willfully interacting with the fans. I said to myself, "Wow. That's cool." This is but one small example of the dedication David had for his band and its fans.
I enjoyed following the progress of the making of Woods 5: Grey Skies and Electric Light. I was very excited to see how it turned out. I wasn't the only one. The buzz surrounding the band seemed to be growing. It was looking like 2012 was going to be big for Woods of Ypres. Then the hammer blow.
I was on break in the middle of a night shift when I heard. I was stunned. My eyes grew big as saucers and my jaw hit the floor. I didn't believe it at first. I didn't want to believe it. I wanted to find out it was a hoax. Soon enough it became apparent that wasn't the case. In the words of Gold himself, "Only death is real." I can't say I was 100% surprised that Gold met his end before his time. He didn't appear to be a happy man. Optimists and happy-go-lucky souls don't write that many songs about death. But with all the recognition and what not the band was getting, I had hoped that other kind of tragedy would be a non-issue. If you take my meaning. Although, if he believed what he sang about in "Death is Not an Exit", he realized that suicide is never the solution. It's a very small consolation that this was an accident, but nevertheless, a tremendous talent was taken away far too early.
Earache Records released a digital promo of Woods 5 shortly after Gold's death. Whenever I listen to it, I feel like it's being sung by a ghost. As if the album wasn't haunting enough. I was singing along to it on my drive to work this morning and I could hardly see for the tears. It doesn't make any sense why I should grieve so much for a man I didn't even know. I've been more upset these past few weeks about Gold's passing that I have been for some extended family members. Perhaps the tragic nature and the age of the deceased played a part. More than likely, my grief is born of selfishness. Woods 5 will be the last WoY album. I will never meet David. I'll never get to see him perform live. All those things are now denied to me. Of course, I also have the deepest compassion for his family, close friends and most rabid fans. The road to enlightenment is paved with compassion, and as a Buddhist practitioner, that's my ultimate goal. So deep down, most of those tears are shed for them.
I didn't feel this bad about any of the metal figures that have passed recently. Not for Dio, nor Cory Smoot, nor Paul Gray, nor Peter Steele. All in bands with bigger profiles than WoY. Bands I've been fans of for years. I don't even think I felt this genuinely sad for Cobain. And I was a huge Nirvana fan. (I was more angry than anything.) Even though I've only been a Woods of Ypres fan less than a year, this hurts more than any of those. So much potential, lost in the blink of an eye.
I will leave you with a chilling thought. In the song "Alternate Ending" on Woods 5, there are the lyrics "Back on the highway, under the moon. My final moments, still wondering about you." It's like he knew.
Return In Peace, David. May your next life bring you happiness.

Following last year’s mass slaughter of Prospect Park geese, the Department of Environmental Protection is trying to appease its numerous critics. Not by emphasizing its concern for animal welfare, mind you, but by touting its dedication to recycling. This summer, instead of being left to rot in a landfill, the geese will feed Pennsylvanians.
Because Pennsylvania already has “established protocol for processing and distributing slaughtered geese,” City Room reports, the birds will be sent to a slaughterhouse there and then distributed to various food banks. New York has been busy putting its own protocols into place, so next year the culled geese will be destined for local food banks.
Incidentally, there are many recipes for Canada geese to be found on the Internet. The Atlantic even wrote a whole story about it last fall, complete with a recipe for goose mortadella. Making it only a matter of time, we suppose, until some enterprising locavore decides to start lurking around Prospect Park, shotgun in hand.

Millions of readers of National Geographic would no doubt have been impressed by this ‘proof’ of evolution and not given the matter any further thought. But what does this evidence really show?
Clearly, the one fact that is ‘verified’ is that three-toed and one-toed horses both existed at the same time. Both specimens were trapped in the same volcanic eruption, in the same locality, ‘frozen in time’. This hardly supports the idea that one type was the ancestor of the other!
Creationists have long pointed out that the arrangement of the fossils in ‘horse evolution’ exhibits has been a contrived sequence, and that there was every reason to believe that the various types of horses lived at the same time. Had these two fossils been found in separate localities, they would no doubt have been displayed showing the three-toed one as ‘older’ than the one-toed.
Finding them together like this is in reality an embarrassment to the idea of evolution. It most certainly does not verify any sort of ‘transition’.

The U.S. Postal Service uses a variety of strategies and media – including direct mail, television, radio, and sponsorships – to advertise, market, and promote its products and services. These efforts also help to build brand awareness for the Postal Service. Some campaigns have succeeded, such as the Priority Mail Flat Rate box campaign, “If it fits, it ships®.” Other efforts have been less successful.
Matching workforce to workload has been a long-term struggle for the U.S. Postal Service. In its banner years, when volume was increasing, the Postal Service often found it difficult to quickly reduce workhours to offset seasonal dips in mail volume. Over the past 6 years, as volumes have steadily declined, the Postal Service has done a better job of matching its work hours to its workload. It has its lowest number of career employees in 25 years and productivity has seen steady cumulative improvement.
The U.S. Postal Service is in the middle of a difficult transition to position itself as a 21st century communications provider. The Postal Service sees new opportunities, but its current cash shortage makes it difficult to invest in modernizing aging facilities and vehicles, or developing new products to serve changing communications and delivery needs. Public-private partnerships (PPPs) are an increasingly popular way for governments to achieve policy goals and develop infrastructure, while shifting short-term financial burdens away from taxpayers and strained government coffers.
Charging for a New Address?
The U.S. Postal Service adds more than 600,000 new delivery points each year, mostly in the form of new residential homes. While most new residences include cluster boxes rather than to-the-door delivery to reduce costs, delivery remains the Postal Service's largest cost center. Canada Post, which has suffered losses recently after years of profits, has introduced a $200 per address charge that it is assessing housing developers for installing community mailboxes.
Imagine if customers didn’t have to wait at home for a package delivery or have to rush home from work to retrieve a package off their front porch. Or, what if they could avoid paying a fee to receive packages at another address? With 24-hour parcel lockers, their prayers are answered.

Unusual design that blends deduction with logic.
Very hard to figure out thanks to no tutorial, dreadful help and badly translated rules. Poor art and sound. Minor technical issues. Game is of limited replay value.
In a dark and baroque castle, a curious assembly of people have gathered together. How such diverse characters as a Duke, an Augur, a Scholar and someone’s pet cat have come together in this sinister place is never revealed. All we know is that amongst them is a deadly assassin who means, for equally obscure reasons, to murder five victims and then escape into the night before he or she is unmasked.
There are two sides to the game: one player take the role of the diabolical Mr. M and secretly chooses one of the ten characters in the game to be the murderer. All the other players are cast in the role of investigators and have to try and figure out which character is doing the killing over five rounds of secretive slaughter. Players are not tied to a character, and can move any of the characters during their turn, giving an oddly disconnected feel to the game.
When everyone has moved, Mr. M secretly selects a murder technique, which differs based on the proximity Mr. M’s character has to potential targets. Some have to be in the same row, others the same column, another the opposite gender and so on. The target dies and the investigators try and reach the room to discover the murder technique and thereby eliminate some of the characters as suspects.
Although set in a castle, and featuring named characters with vaguely relevant special powers, the whole thing feels fairly abstract. There’s no story or logic behind the theme of all these unrelated characters assembling for no apparent purpose other than to be killed, and some of the murder methods such as “fishing pole” are just bizarre. That immediately creates a barrier to getting to grips with how the game works. But it’s not the only one.
Mr. M’s Code of Murde: The Byzantine Assassin is an English translation of a 2009 Chinese board game, and the translation is absolutely atrocious. There’s no tutorial, the in-game help screens are useless, and you’ll have to read the supplied rules and stumble repeatedly over the laughable grammatical errors to learn the game. Thankfully, they’re not overly complex. But even when you’ve done that, differences between the in-game text and the rules will confuse and frustrate although, as far as I could tell, everything is enforced in-game as it should be.
There are technical and presentational issues too, although thankfully no showstoppers. The app is prone to crashing occasionally and the touchscreen interface is clumsy and unresponsive. The graphics aren’t terrible but some images seem to be surprisingly low resolution. The music is cheesy and repetitive, and the catchphrases characters repeat when selected are low quality and hard to understand.
If – and it’s a big if – you can get past all these issues and play the game the way it’s supposed to be played, it’s fairly unusual. Deduction games tend to have a heavy social element of looking for secretive or suspicious behaviour in players and don’t translate well to computer play. But Mr. M’s Code of Murder is different because the various constraints of the murder cards means investigators can logically work out who could be responsible and who must be innocent, and the app tracks the results automatically, although I’m not convinced it does so with perfect accuracy.
It also means that a capable AI can be designed to do the investigating. Right now the app supports hotseat play for humans, and has a reasonable investigator AI. An AI for Mr M. is promised but currently a person has to fill that role so that’s what you’ll be doing if you play solo. And it’s very difficult: trying to bunch potential victims together to spread suspicion and stop investigators discovering the cause of death is tough. But there does seem to be one strategy which ensures the computer always has more than one suspect, so its final pick will give you a random 50/50 chance of a win. The design might be unusual, but it seems imbalanced and badly flawed.
That’s not to say there’s no fun at all in playing. It’ll take you a few games to work out how you can win, and if you really enjoy the mechanics you can always play “properly” and try to work toward winning odds better than half. And at five to ten minutes to complete a session, it’ll serve as a quick filler. But given the sizeable barriers the game puts in front of players before they can get any enjoyment from it, and the generally limited appeal once you’ve put the effort in, this is a weak design by any measure.

Despite what you may hear from the liberal media, the Clinton email scandal is far from over. In fact, I think we’re in the middle of the scandal.
Even though President Obama and his troops left town with a number of critical issues unresolved, Judicial Watch recently announced that we put key members of his administration on notice and that we intend to sue if necessary to get an official damage assessment of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s scandalous email practice. And if it means that the Trump administration won’t enforce the rule of law, we may go to court as we would have against the prior administration.
In fact, we have taken a two-pronged legal action to force the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) to conduct a full-scale damage assessment of Hillary Clinton’s use of an “unsecure, unofficial email account” and to explain why it failed to do so when information about the former secretary of state’s use of a private email server to transmit classified information first surfaced.
The demand for a damage assessment was contained in a January 10 certified letter sent to the Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, former Secretary of State John Kerry, and Director of National Intelligence Counterintelligence Executive William Evanina. The request for an explanation of why the Office of the Director of National Intelligence failed to act earlier was part of a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit filed on January 11. The lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia (Judicial Watch v. Office of the Director of National Intelligence (No. 1:17-cv-00053)).
In the January 10 letter informing Clapper, Kerry, and Evanina that we are “prepared to file suit” to force a damage assessment, we first cited an assessment by FBI Director James Comey revealing that 110 emails Clinton returned to the State Department contained “classified information,” while others contained “Top Secret,” “Secret,” and “Confidential” information.
Intelligence Community Directive (“ICD”) No. 732 requires a damage assessment be conducted when there is “an actual or suspected unauthorized disclosure or compromise of classified national intelligence that may cause damage to U.S. national security” or “an actual or suspected loss, misuse, or unauthorized access to or modification of classified national intelligence that could adversely affect national security. The National Security Act of 1947, as amended, mandates that the Director of National Intelligence “shall protect intelligence sources and methods from unauthorized disc1osure” (50 U.S.C. § 3024(i)(1)), and ICD No. 700 requires that agency heads “within the Intelligence Community, including the Department of State, [p]rotect national intelligence and intelligence sources, methods, and activities from unauthorized disclosure.” Assessing the damage from actual or suspected, unauthorized disclosure plainly is an important part of protecting intelligence sources, methods, and activities.
A damage assessment such as the one required by ICD No. 732 is a quintessential type of record that Judicial Watch would request and obtain under FOIA, analyze, and then make available to the public in carrying out its educational mission.
Should the required assessment not be undertaken, we are prepared to file suit in an appropriate federal district court seeking to compel compliance with ICD No. 732, so that we might seek and obtain access to the assessment…. Please advise us no later than February 10, 2017 if an assessment will be undertaken. If we do not hear from you by that date, we will assume no assessment will be undertaken and will act accordingly.
All records that form the foundation for the decision by ODNI not to conduct an assessment of the damage to national security resulting from former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton sending and receiving classified national security information on a private email server.
All records sent to or from ODNI officials regarding the decision not to conduct an assessment of the damage to national security resulting from former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton sending and receiving classified national security information on a private email server.
Two days before we filed our FOIA request, Joel D. Melstad, a spokesperson for the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, released a statement saying, “ODNI is not leading an [intelligence community]-wide damage assessment and is not aware of any individual IC element conducting such formal assessments.” Melstad would not answer questions about the reasoning behind the decision.
The Office of the Director of National Intelligence has a legal obligation to assess the damage done by Hillary Clinton’s illicit email practices. Therefore, the American people have a right to know the basis of that decision. And they have a right to expect the Office of the Director of National Intelligence to follow the law and determine how badly Mrs. Clinton’s actions compromised national security and put our nation at risk.

Posters are spread for miles across Corpus Christi as the Manka family continues to search for their therapy dog.
“Her name is trinity and we miss her very much,” said Louis Garza.
Garza is a 37 year old man who lives with foster parents, and is now missing his English bulldog.
“Her smile, her licking,” said Garza.
He suffers from anxiety disorders, which his dog Trinity helps him cope with.
“She was not just a dog, she was like a person,” said Garza.
His foster mom, Linda Manka says without Trinity, Louis becomes distant and occasionally unresponsive.
“It’s just an empty feeling, it’s a loss for our family for sure,” said Manka.
Trinity is currently on medication and the family fears if she’s wandering the streets she may not make it through the wintery weather.
Louis is also needing her and wanting her really bad and I know that our dog needs us also,” said Manka.
The dog was last seen near Stages and Alameda Street.
The family is offering a $300 reward for the return of their dog, no questions asked.

On my way to a nut flush!
I'm only shooting to pony up 25 books in 2008. Please don't think less of me.
Re: I'm only shooting to pony up 25 books in 2008. Please don't think less of me.
That was probably my favorite book that I read for my children's lit class last semester. It's awesome!
It was SO totally awesome. I hope I don't seem like a shmuck for having my first book be a "young adult" novel but I found it while Christmas shopping for my nephew and just HAD to read it. I also read The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane just before the holidays. I'll need to go through the kid's section more often.

A bill that’s being considered in the New Jersey legislature could have a direct impact on many services that connect individuals in need with home care and other service providers. Currently, referral services for home care and other types of support are not required to register as a health care service firm.
In other words, these organizations, many of which are websites that allow people to enter personal information and then receive a list of prospective care or service providers, are increasing in popularity, but do not fall under the purview of certain oversight and may not offer enough protection to those individuals or families utilizing their services to connect them with care providers.
If this bill passes the legislature and is signed into law, it would completely change the business model and landscape of many of the top services that essentially connect residents with prospective caregivers.
This effort to further regulate the industry as a means of helping protect New Jersey residents from potential harm in an unregulated sector could have significant repercussions throughout home health care itself. It is unclear how much support the bill has garnered or whether it could be passed as currently written.
If it passes and the governor signs the bill into law, several popular referral websites may no longer be able to serve New Jersey residents.

The search covered more than 33 hours and saturated a 646 square-mile area before it was called off, the Coast Guard said.
Also on board the plane was Krupinski's wife, Bonnie Krupinski, 70; grandson Will Maerov, 22; and the pilot, Jon Dollard, 47.
Newsday reports that inside the plane was Ben Krupinski, 70, who has built homes for wealthy and famous clients, including Martha Stewart and Billy Joel.
Private fishing vessels, the United States Coast Guard, and East Hampton Town Marine Patrol units joined in a search and located a debris field about 1.5 miles south of Amagansett's Indian Wells Beach a short time later, police said.
The cause of the crash remains under investigation, but locals told The Post on Saturday that a nasty storm was spotted off the coast just before the small craft went down.
Bernard Krupinski grew up in East Hampton before starting his business, Ben Krupinski Builders, there. "I can't confirm that was the cause", he said on Saturday afternoon.
A twin engine piper navajo lost contact with air traffic control at East Hampton Town Airport.
The Coast Guard reported that one person was recovered from the plane and a search was on for three missing people.
Originally, 3:56 p.m.: A plane crashed into the water off Indian Wells Beach in Amagansett Saturday afternoon.
The plane has not been recovered, however, debris has been found in the surrounding areas, Mr. O'Hare said.
Search crews on Sunday continued to scour the eastern edge of Long Island after a plane carrying a prominent homebuilder and his family crashed a day earlier.
Shortly before the G-7 meeting ended, Trump tweeted that "the United States must, at long last, be treated fairly on trade". We believe in the G7, it's an important group", Mr Mnuchin said at his own news conference.
The EU has already issued a 10-page list of tariffs on USA goods ranging from Harley-Davidson motorcycles to bourbon. He estimated that the economic impact of the tariffs would amount to "a very small part of trade flows as a whole".
The match is a repeat of Nadal's straight-sets victory at the same third-round stage the last time they met in Paris back in 2005. The Williamses dropped the first set and then trailed 5-4 in the second with Klepac and Martinez Sanchez serving for the match.
Fortnite's availability on the Nintendo Switch should only add to the hordes of cash that Epic Games is pulling in from the title. In contrast, PUBG is only available on PC and Xbox One, and the Xbox One version has yet to reach parity with its PC version.
In the game against Congo, we didn't play our best team, but we will change things against England and play our best players. Nigeria's next game is against the Czech Republic in Austria before they depart for Russian Federation .
Brazil coach Tite said Neymar's return was "above the expected standard". It was only through Neymar's introduction that this was addressed.
DeChambeau rolled in a 20-foot birdie on the par-3 16th, and he hit 9-iron to 5 feet on the toughest hole, the 18th. That was still better than Jordan Spieth, who finished bogey-bogey for a 72 and missed the cut by three shots.
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp would have no interest in the vacant Real Madrid job, according to Christian Purslow. I want to thank the fans, who always supported me both as a coach and a player.
The persistent Knights earned a power play and cut the Caps' lead to 3-2 late in the second on Theodore's shot through traffic. With extra space, Washington strung together several sharp passes culminating in Eller's sixth goal of the postseason.

What a smooth and stunning track, a pleasure to stumble upon – released by the one and only Eye’z, host of CA’s Live Action Music.
The music in Go For It has a beautifully mellow and soulful vibe to it, and what’s more; all the elements with which it has been crafted are superbly connected by that gorgeously expressive leading vocal. There’s a beautiful tone to the voice, and alongside this – there is some really impressive and creative production from start to finish.
Everything shines brightly in this one – the work put into it has clearly been thought through, looked over, and essentially made to count. Later on, as you get further into the track, the vocal performances are sensational. The key change adds this whole new dynamic, bringing the track smoothly but surely forward from the peacefully mellow to the passionately massive. The outro builds and builds, then appropriately fades out as it rides along on a pretty incredible vocal note; one that blends so very well with the end of the music.
It’s such a strong track, even with all the technical details aside; genre, style, direction – the fact of the matter is, it’s a track you can turn on, turn up, and get completely lost in. It’s a beautiful performance, woven stylishly into a lush sounding piece of music. There’s a whole lot about it that feels brand new – she’s an artist you’d want to do well, purely because of that something special that’s been created through the sound and the performance.
Bringing genre back into the mix, there’s a delightful bit of soul featured throughout, fused in with a whole lot of everything that is modern and new about chilled out electronic music. It sounds great, the voice is truly quite stunning, honest sounding, and the style is fresh and easy to get involved in. Furthermore, at it’s very core – the song writing is right up there with the best of them. It’s a brilliant combination of elements and skills, making for a quality listening experience. This is undeniably an artist to get on board with.
You can check out everything that’s happening in the world Eye’z over on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, listen to Go For It over on Reverbnation, and find out more about the artist on her official Website. If you’re anywhere near Albany, CA, this August, you can catch Eye’z and friends at Live Action Music – Sunday, 28th August, at The Ivy Room. Get involved.
