How do I manage jet lag?

I don't have any problem with an editorial writer taking a position on an issue regarding non-competes. But when you present your position from the vantage point of giving purportedly unbiased guidance, you then assume the obligation to lay out the pros and cons of the position objectively.
The following paragraph from a February 23 editorial reveals that Ms. Curry completely - and transparently - failed at this elemental task, because she inherently assumes that honest employees, even if unencumbered by a non-compete clause, should refrain from competing with their former employer in their chosen profession for an undefined "reasonable period of time."
While I certainly understand and appreciate her sentiment, she paints this as a black and white issue, and does not acknowledge the employee's vantage point, i.e., "Why should I forego making the most money I can - where I have all of my experience - if I'm not being paid to sit on the sidelines?"
"Sometimes the budding entrepreneurs decide against running their own businesses and remain employees. Often these entrepreneurs-in-the-making sign and comply with non-compete agreements because of their own innate integrity. At other times, individuals agree not to start their own businesses for a reasonable time after leaving without intending to keep their promise.
Her ideas don't comport with the law or public policy in most jurisdictions, and therefore, at least in my view, lead readers down a wrong path of thinking - if they're looking to protect their business from a rational, grounded perspective. | 2019-04-24T22:26:44 | https://www.jonathancooperlaw.com/blog/editorial-dubs-employees-who-violate-non-competes-worse-than-pirates.cfm |
Former traffic warden Grace Williams took it in her stride when she found herself on the receiving end of a ticket.
For the ‘ticket’ was an airline pass for a journey half way round the world to see a grandchild she had never met.
The incredible journey was arranged by Grace’s son Midge as a surprise gift to mark her 70th birthday.
And as well as meeting her 21-year-old granddaughter in South Africa, Grace - who lives in Southwater - went on with son Midge to visit her home town of Bulawayo in Zimbabwe for the first time in 40 years.
“It was a marvelous, fantabulous, incredible, wonderful, exciting surprise holiday of a lifetime,” said Grace.
Grace makes an annual trip to see Midge and his wife Gina at their home in Switzerland and thought she was on her way there when Midge sprang the surprise on her.
“He said he had a meeting at Heathrow and said he would meet me there and I could travel with him,” said Grace.
“When I got to the airport we went and had dinner and then went to board the flight. We got to a sign saying ‘Johannesburg.’ Oh my God, I couldn’t believe it.
But the celebration was only just beginning. As well as meeting her granddaughter - Storm Jarvis - who is the daughter of Grace’s other son Shane - in Johannesburg, Grace was also reunited with one of her best friends in Durban whom she had not seen for years.
And while there, she also met up with her nephew Denzil whom she last saw nine years ago.
“It was such an incredible experience, I cried half the time,” said Grace, who used to work as a traffic warden for Sussex Police before joining Horsham District Council as a civil enforcement officer until her retirement in 2010.
She said Midge had planned the whole trip in meticulous detail with help from his wife Gina who kept the holiday a surprise.
“I thought I was going to Switzerland to see them,” said Grace. “She had to fool me into bringing some clothes for the heat. She said she was going to take me to a spa so I should bring sandals, a swimming costume, three pairs of light trousers and sunglasses.
Apart from her two sons, Grace - whose 70th birthday is on October 31 this year - also has family nearer to home.
Her daughter Crystal lives in West Chiltington with her partner Justin and two children, and her sister Val lives in Roffey. | 2019-04-19T21:06:16 | https://www.crawleyobserver.co.uk/news/people/it-was-such-an-incredible-experience-i-cried-half-the-time-1-8492234 |

My son and my nephew were both expecting baby girls mid-January. Well, my granddaughter arrived on the 3rd, and my grandniece is due any moment. AND the quilts, of course, are not done!
The quilt top of one is done. Green and purple and cute prints. It will have a deep purple border.
And baby quilt 2 is in progress, I have all the large squares done, working on the partials (it will be set in a border on the diagonal. But I ran out of yellow, so fabric store trip this weekend.
Now I have to decide whether to have professionally quilted, saves me work, adds time.
Update pics, I am still waffling on final quilting.
Quilt 1 with new border and back pictures.
Quilt 2 front and back. My nephew had a baby girl Jan 24th. So two brand new baby girls in the family. Yay!
Sally's cat appears briefly in several scenes in NBC. Seems to be a free-spirited alley cat, with big gold eyes.
My partner in a recent stuffie swap liked cats and NBC. Guess who came to play. My cat was kind enough to pose for me for the initial sketch.
I did end up making the body and head separately as the first head was too small. They are joined at the neck with a concealing festive copper bow. The fabric was a piece of black suede cloth and was moderately difficult to work with, I had to pay close attention to the nap of the fabric. The eyes are reverse applique. She was fun and though she turned out about an inch taller (minus the ears) than I had planned for, she promised to crouch down to only 5 inches (a requirement for the swap) whenever anyone looked at her.
I love prayer flags, simple, thoughtful, beautiful. So the lastest mini prayer flag swap was fun. A new size, another chance to send love out into the world.
We were to make 3 flags, keep one and send the other two to our partner. Our partner is to keep one and abandon the other out in the world.
I grabbed her bird theme and captured a trio of cardinals on cloth. They came out looking very vintage Christmas cardish. It was hard picking out which to keep and which to send. Since polka dots was another theme element, polka dot wing cardinal got a chance to travel, and I just randomly picked another.
They were stitched down by machine and then trimmed. I roughed the cut edges a bit and added white beads for snow. The words were stamped on last.
I make a Pumpkin King or Grandfather Pumpkin for @joyfulclover to keep an eye on her Halloween festivities. He may just hang out for Thanksgiving as well.
His head is a heat gun squished plastic pumpkin with paper mache and paper clay additions. A lot of paint, a little eyeshadow contouring, a spritz of hairspray to set it all and he was ready to have his head filled with candy corn. He did eat way too much himself, but I managed to save a bit for Joyfulclover. He also has a little friend Cornicopia.
Our church does a craft fair the weekend before Thanksgiving. This year they are having a Rainbow booth. All things rainbowish. Last year I did tutus (very popular and someone is making more for this year) and rainbow fleece hats.
This year I decided to make some quick rainbow wands. Only to be used for doing good in the world and very needed these days. I did full rainbow and pastel rainbow. These were very quick to make and should be a fun little gift for the stocking.
I cut the ribbon to 12" and then stapled in threes, red/orange/yellow and green/blue/purple. This held the ribbons together.
I used white duct tape, but any good sticky tape would work, and added the two groups of three ribbons side by side on the tape. Excuse the funky coloring...camera played tricks with me.
Then wrapped around the dowel.
The foam shapes were peel-n-stick, but the sticky part did not hold well, so I had to peel, add glue and place one on each side of the top of the dowel. handling sticky items and trying to put more glue on them was a bit...well....sticky.
They went fast, I was happy with the results and should bring in some $$$ for our church. | 2019-04-20T07:16:51 | https://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=303012;sa=showTopics |
The Jaguars advanced to Class 3A state championship game for the second consecutive season with a 56-51 win over Manning on Saturday in Florence.
RHHS was without Class 3A Co-Player of the Year Rashamel Butler, who was suspended after picking up two technical fouls in Tuesday’s win over Marion, and the Jaguars were out of sorts early without their leader.

Manning led 28-19 at halftime and 39-31 after three quarters before the Jaguars began chipping away. RHHS took its first lead since the first quarter on two Devin Butler free throws that made it 49-48 with 2:38 to play and closed it out.
Ny’Gel Boozer scored 22 points — 12 in the fourth quarter — to lead the Jaguars, who will play in the state championship for the third time in five years. Rashard Baker added 17 points and Devin Butler had 11 for RHHS, which has won 16 straight games.

We attended the funeral service of a dear sister in Christ who was suddenly taken home at the end of August. She was only 55 years young and was full of life. She had a conversation with her brother the night before she passed and everything seemed normal.
She leaves behind a humble and wonderful husband and two grown daughters who are just beginning their lives in the world. Nothing prepared them for this unexpected loss. I was very shocked to hear this news (as many were as well) and could not wrap my mind around the finality of the situation.
The funeral service was amazing and celebrated her life in a beautiful way.
We arrived early so we had the privilege of finding seats in the middle of the church. When the service was finished, the caretaker announced that the viewing would take place and due to the large crowd, it was best to allow those outside to come in first to pay their last respects.
Streams of people walked down the aisle to view the open casket, then turned to acknowledge the family members standing in the front. I was amazed at the multitude of people who were impacted by her life as the viewing took an extra hour to finish.
We were in the caravan of cars as we drove slowly to the cemetery site. I have never seen so many people show up for a burial proceeding. As we stood on the grass looking towards the casket, my eyes were fixated on Peter and his girls. In particular, I found my heart drawn to him as I felt deep sadness in my heart for his sudden loss.
He stared at the casket and shed his tears. His gaze never broke until the casket was finally lowered into the ground.
He and the girls stood up to toss their flowers into the dark pit; everyone followed thereafter with their flowers.
Why was I focused on Peter’s reaction?
That moment took me back eight years ago when we placed Diana’s ashes into the urn and settled it on the shelf (as the funeral home referred to that space).
As Christians, we understand that their souls are no longer here on earth yet one cannot help but feel that sense of loss. I cannot speak for Peter’s emotions that day but I do recall that, until the burial took place (or in my case, the ashes placed into the urn and sealed behind the glass), there was that last bit of unexplained “closeness” I did not want to let go.
If only this moment could last a bit longer I thought to myself. That was the familiar look I saw in Peter’s face as he stared at his precious bride’s casket when it was above ground. In those moments, I felt a deep connection to Peter and his loss. It was his last moments with his lovely wife on earth.
When the casket was lowered, or in my case, the glass plate was sealed eight years ago, a man’s heart must evolve and deal with the next question in life – How do I move on without her?
Just as I have been blessed with a beautiful wife a few years later, I am sure God will help Peter cope with this deep loss and fill his heart again with joy.
After all, that was what they would have wanted for us. Pray for Peter and his girls as they transition into a new life.
Rest in peace Shirley – we will see you again in Heaven.

Despite increasing pressure from supermarkets and fuel stations, demand is still good for traditional newsagents stores in the region, say commercial property agents Christie & Co.
With many outlets branching out into newsagents’ core products, some traditional shops have been forced to close.
Christie & Co, which has an office in Newcastle, was instructed to market Finlays (North-East) Ltd’s stores in 2013. The businesses were around Newcastle, Gateshead and Cleveland and five shops were sold and completed successfully.
The move came after the company, which was based in Whickham, near Gateshead, suddenly ceased trading in October.
It had also raised concerns over the long-term future of the newsagent industry, with its financial report for the year to March 2012 revealing operating losses of £188,903.
Andrew Birnie of Christie & Co said: “During the marketing period the company went into liquidation.
“At that time, a quantity of shops were under offer. We were instructed as joint agents with Cottam & Co by the liquidators to market the remaining estate of 15 shops.
One new owner was Sandip Patel who took over the former Finlays (North-East) Limited store in Prebend Row, Darlington. He is re-branding the store and has re-employed former workers.
Birnie added: “A group of five stores which had off-licences and formerly traded as Bargain Booze at Finlays were sold to a national retailer.
“Even though the shops were closed, the leases attracted a premium for goodwill and some attracted multiple bidders. | 2019-04-25T13:52:00 | http://www.thejournal.co.uk/business/commercial-property/christie--co-claims-demand-6480830 |
November newsletter: Thanksgiving, and some email tips!
We are just a week away from Thanksgiving and I’d like to take this time to thank you for being a subscriber to my newsletter. I am grateful for your readership and I hope that you continue to find useful information here.
And speaking about newsletters, did you know that email marketing is still one of the best marketing tactics out there? According to eMarketer, email marketing was the most effective digital marketing channel for customer retention in the United States in 2014. And BtoB Magazine reports that 59% of business-to-business marketers say email is the most effective channel for generating revenue.
And yet, there’s room for improvement. Below are some email marketing best practices.
Are you planning your 2016 marketing and communications? Let’s schedule a time to discuss how I could help you develop your marketing materials. Just call me at 240-803-3262.
Best wishes for a very happy Thanksgiving, and a wonderful holiday season.
P.S. The statistics about email marketing came from Hubspot's The Ultimate List of Marketing Statistics.
We all get tons of marketing emails, most of which we signed up for, or from organizations with which we have done a transaction. In other words, we’ve opted-in and that makes us more likely to read the email or at least not unsubscribe. The opt-in is exactly what makes email marketing so valuable.
Be careful about images. Did you know most email clients don’t automatically download images? Often, emails will show up with an "x" where the image is supposed to be. This means that if all you send is an image with no text, the reader can’t see anything at all. The solution is to use both text and images, and to use tags on the images.
See how your email renders on different platforms. Email can appear differently on different platforms and email services (Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook, etc.) There are paid services like Email On Acid to show you how the email looks across platforms but you can and should test it yourself by sending it to different email addresses and accessing it from different devices (use friends if you have to!).
Make sure it’s readable on mobile devices. I receive countless emails that can’t be easily read on my smartphone and this is a problem since Hubspot reports that more than 80% of readers are accessing email on mobile devices. Your email should be mobile-friendly. If it isn’t, look into the coding or change email marketing providers.
Test what you can and always check your statistics. If you have a large enough list, you can run tests. For example, you could check what subject lines increase open rates by sending one subject line to half your list and another subject to the other half. You could do the same type of test to check what day of the week gets a better response. Most email marketing platforms provide statistics, which allow you to see data such as open rates and click-throughs. Use the data to inform your next mailing.
Do you have words and phrases that show up over and over in your writing or your speech? They are most likely your go-to adjectives, adverbs and descriptive phrases. The problem with using the same word or phrase multiple times is that it becomes boring or even meaningless to your reader or listener. Take the time to read or listen to your work carefully. What words or phrases are your crutches? It’s easy to use clichés or popular phrases (e.g., sweet spot, low hanging fruit, etc.). It may be harder to come up with an alternative, but doing so could add some zing to your communications. | 2019-04-23T06:13:45 | https://madmimi.com/s/987fe6 |
I feel privileged to have been accepted into this community of modern alchemists.
My journey with alchemy started just over a year ago now when I first encountered Sendivogius's New Chemical Light. Before then I was always sceptical about alchemy as is to be expected, seeing as alchemy has always been a hidden science which most people rejected as false even in ancient times. Sendivogius's text is really what made me realize there could be something more to alchemy, and the more alchemical texts I read, the more I realized that alchemy is really a true experimental science just like modern physics and chemistry. This really fired my desire to start studying alchemy seriously.
Fast forward to the present time, I am now at a stage where I have read several alchemical texts and am ready to start learning practical alchemy in order to really understand these texts and the three principles. In my opinion the experimental knowledge of the three principles is really the basis of alchemy, rather than Aristotelian natural philosophy as some people claim. Thus, I feel that practical alchemy will allow me to gain a deeper insight into alchemical texts.
I hope to benefit from the more advanced users on this forum and contribute what I know in return. When I am more advanced I will also help less advanced users. He who has been saved should help his brothers. I admire modern alchemists such as Jean Dubuis and Rubellus Petrinus for their generosity and hope that we can all share our understanding with each other in this difficult science.

O'Kelley, Patrick, "Nothing but Blood and Slaughter" The Revolutionary War in the Carolinas", Vol.3. Pp.174-176.
O'Kelley, Patrick, "225 years ago today - Fort Nashborough, Tennessee"
On the morning of April 2nd a handful of Chicamauga Indians appeared at Fort Nashborough, fired off a volley, and then withdrew. Colonel James Robertson and twenty mounted riflemen gave chase, only to be ambushed by 200 warriors under Dragging Canoe.
When Robertson’s horsemen dismounted and fought on foot a second group of Chicamaugas appeared at the riflemen’s rear, and began firing. Luckily the horses stampeded and turned the battle around for the Patriots. Many of the Indians set off in pursuit of the precious stock. The horses crashed through the line of Indians that separated the riflemen from the fort, allowing them to escape.
Colonel Robertson’s wife, Charlotte, threw open the stockade gates and let loose their hunting dogs that had been trained to attack Indians. The riflemen raced back to the safety of the fort, and were able to drive the Chicamaugas back into the woods. The frontiersmen lost five men killed and two wounded. The Indians continued their sporadic sniping until the next day, when the residents of the fort had enough and loaded their swivel gun with rocks and shards of iron. They fired it at the nearest Indian, not doing much damage, but the noise was impressive and scared away the attackers.

Mark Warburton believes he retains the backing of 95 per cent of Rangers supporters and insists he remains fully committed to the task of restoring the Ibrox club to the summit of Scottish football.
The Rangers manager, who labelled speculation linking him with the vacancy at English Championship club Wigan Athletic as “nonsensical”, feels criticism of his team’s start to the season is largely confined to what he describes as “rogue comments” on radio phone-ins and newspaper hotlines.
Warburton’s side have dropped 14 points from their first 10 Premiership fixtures, leaving them in fifth place in the Ladbrokes Premiership. Their 1-1 draw at home to St Johnstone on Wednesday night was greeted by jeers from their own fans.
But, while Warburton accepts the level of Rangers’ second half performance merited that reaction, he is confident the vast majority of the club’s support still have faith in his ability to create a team ultimately capable of challenging for the title.
“We have spoken to enough genuine Rangers supporters and we are not listening to the five per cent minority,” said Warburton. “We are not listening to them at all. The feedback we get from the rest is positive. They understand that we are trying to play. The second half against St Johnstone wasn’t good enough. Why did I say the boos were understandable? Because it wasn’t a good second half. You pay your money to be entertained. I know I wasn’t entertained in the second half, I didn’t enjoy watching my team. So I understand the boos, absolutely.
“But I know the vast majority of Rangers fans have been first class, they’ve been fantastic. There are rogue comments in papers or on radio stations. We don’t listen to that.
“If the board come and speak to me, that’s different. If you listen to certain comments, you’d think the pressure comes from the board because we have won four out of 10 in the league. If we had won on Wednesday, where would we be in relation to Aberdeen and Hearts? We are just 10 games in, it’s still very early in the season. We still have players gelling and settling in.
Warburton was quickly installed as one of the leading candidates for the Wigan job after the sacking earlier this week of former Celtic and Scotland defender Gary Caldwell.
“No disrespect to Wigan, they are a very good club, but I have got to ask where did that come from?,” said Warburton.
“Does it really warrant being on the back page, Warburton being linked to the Wigan job? I can’t control that, but it is nonsensical.
“We are more than committed to Rangers and I hope the Rangers fans know that. They see the project we are doing here.
Warburton was speaking before Joey Barton reported to Ibrox for talks with Rangers officials in regard to his ongoing suspension from the club following a training ground bust-up in the aftermath of the 5-1 defeat by Celtic on 10 September. Barton declined to make any comment as he made his way into the meeting which lasted for two hours. The 34-year-old’s suspension remains in place as the disciplinary process continues. | 2019-04-18T22:15:31 | https://www.scotsman.com/sport/football/competitions/premiership/mark-warburton-95-per-cent-of-rangers-fans-back-me-1-4271242 |
Within a collection there may be many examples of fossils of the same species. These are not “extras” or “spares”; series of specimens are essential for research and are one of the most important reasons that institutions hold collections.
It is rare that a museum will want to dispose of a specimen simply because it is one of several examples of that species. However, there are some circumstances in which an institution may feel that it is no longer appropriate or necessary to hold onto a particular fossil, and may choose to remove the specimen from its collections. This process is called deaccessioning.
Deaccessioning is carried out when a specimen has been damaged beyond recovery or repair, or is no longer relevant to the scope and purpose of the collections. There are a number of different methods by which deaccessioning can be carried out, including exchange, donation, sale, or destruction.
Why might my institution decide to deaccession something?
The institution is unable to provide sufficient care, and another repository has been identified that is more suitable and is willing to accept it.
Preference should be given to placing material that is part of the historical, cultural, or scientific legacy of a particular region, state or country at institutions within that region, state or nation, respectively. Alternatively, the specimen can be transferred internally within the holding institution (e.g., from a scientific collection to an education department for use in public programs).
Deaccessioning a specimen is an extremely significant step for an institution or individual, because by accessioning the specimen you accepted responsibility for its long term housing and care. For this reason, it is important that the decision to remove or dispose of an object from a collection is considered carefully, and that the process of deaccessioning takes place in a responsible and ethical manner.
If you are an individual with a fossil collection you might want to ask yourself why you are dropping the responsibility for a particular fossil? What are you going to do with it now? Would having a more thought out collection plan prevent this problem in the future?
What do I do with the specimen after it has been deaccessioned?
In general, ethical issues tend to weigh against the sale of objects from museum collections; however, selling of specimens may be an acceptable method of disposal under certain circumstances. Nonetheless, the sale of specimens can be a very contentious issue and should not be undertaken without consultation with all appropriate institutional staff.
If the object is offered for sale, it is preferable that the sale take place via a public auction or the public market place in a way that best protects the interests of the museum. The proceeds from the sale should be used for acquisitions to the collections or for direct management, care or preservation of the collections as specified by the institution’s collection policy.
If a specimen has lost all of its value to the collections because of alteration, replication, deterioration or other compelling reason(s) and has no value for education, exchange, sale, or donation, it can be discarded or destroyed.
To prevent ethical conflicts of interest, it is best to avoid giving or selling specimens privately to museum employees, or to other people with a professional association with the institutions, such as members of the board of trustees or committees. Because these ethical issues can be so sensitive, this course of action is preferable even if it seems like a less drastic solution than destroying the specimen. | 2019-04-26T10:12:49 | http://collections.paleo.amnh.org/32/de-accessioning |

Alqueva, in Portugal, is the first site in the world to be certified by the Starlight Foundation as a “Starlight Tourism Destination”. This certification, awarded by the Starlight foundation is supported by UNESCO, UNWTO and IAC. Nowadays Dark Sky® Alqueva includes a Portuguese and Spanish council areas, making it also the first cross-border Starlight Destination in the World, proving that the sky has no boundaries or limits of any kind.
Starlight destinations are places which have very low light pollution where visitors can enjoy unique and unparalleled opportunities to view the night sky. In much of Europe fewer and fewer people are able to view the galaxy clearly because of increasing light pollution but in Alqueva the excellent atmospheric conditions and clarity make it possible for visitors to enjoy stargazing for most of the year. In addition Alqueva is a unique region very rich in cultural and natural heritage. Its megalithic remains provide a link with past civilisations who observed and responded to celestial movements. It is a region of small picturesque village which provide the visitor with a range of activities to fill the days and nights. The Alqueva Dark Sky Route initiative provides a focus for such activities providing opportunities for bird watching, hiking, horse riding, wildlife watching, canoeing, lake side dining, children activities and, of course, stargazing. It is a memorable place to enjoy all the visual delights that the galaxy can offer stargazers at whatever level of knowledge. Telescopes and binoculars are made available as part of the route together with practical courses and guidance in stargazing.
Accommodation provided through the Dark Sky Route has been tailored to meet the special needs of astro tourists including late meals and take away food packs. Reservations can be made via our website or contact form.
The certification covers an area of 10,000 square kilometres around Lake Alqueva, including Portuguese and Spanish council areas. With the quality of the sky already certificated in nine Portuguese municipalities – Alandroal, Barrancos, Moura, Mourão, Reguengos de Monaraz, Portel, Évora, Mértola and Serpa – Dark Sky® Alqueva offers a diversity of daytime and night-time activities. Alqueva Dark Sky® Reserve is coordinated by Portuguese Dark Sky Association.
The Reserve Dark Sky alqueva has an average of 286 nights clean, ie, without the presence of clouds.
The Dark Sky Reserve Alqueva records in some places measurements of 21,60 mag/arcsec2.
“The Starlight Foundation includes among its objectives the management and promotion of the Starlight Initiative. The Initiative is designed as an international action in defence of the values associated with the night sky and the general right to observe the stars. The final aim of the initiative is to strengthen the importance of clear skies for humankind, emphasizing and introducing the value of this endangered heritage for science, education, culture, technological development, nature conservation and tourism.
Starting from the proposal of IAC, the Starlight Initiative was launched in 2007 with the support of UNESCO, MaB Programme, UNWTO, IAU, and the collaboration of other international conventions: UNEP-CMS, SCBD and Ramsar Convention.
*Dissemination and diffusion of science and, in particular, astrophysics and other sciences related to this branch of knowledge.
*Promote tourism activities related to the night sky as an effective way to seek a rapprochement between science and tourism.
*Promote training programs for guides and communicators on scientific and technological knowledge related with astronomy and associated values.
*Cooperation with international agencies and related organizations in the dissemination and defense on values and heritage associated with astronomy and the night sky. | 2019-04-25T22:27:03 | http://darkskyalqueva.com/en/starlight-certification/ |

A Georgia county commissioner and his wife have been charged with multiple counts of insurance fraud and violating the state’s insurance code.
Bob Coleman, a Glynn County commissioner and insurance agent, and his wife, Sherry Coleman, have been charged with 15 felony counts of violating the Georgia Insurance Code, according to a report by The Brunswick News.
Bob Coleman is serving his third term on the Glynn County Commission, according to The Brunswick News. He is also the former owner of Coleman Insurance Agency, which he sold to Family First Insurance in August.
Family First owner Jeff Guest said he was unaware of the investigation into the Colemans when he purchased the agency.
“Because they did not disclose this to me, when I was made aware of this, I severed my relationship personally and professionally with them,” Guest told The Brunswick News. Guest said he wasn’t made aware of the investigation until October – but that he now believes the Colemans knew they were being investigated when they sold him the agency.
“Because it was not disclosed to me, I am in the middle of this mess,” Guest said. | 2019-04-21T10:53:48 | https://www.insurancebusinessmag.com/us/news/workers-comp/georgia-county-commissioner-wife-charged-with-insurance-fraud-122269.aspx |

Here is your 60-car grid for the 2016 24 Hours of Le Mans. The big test day before the 84th running of the race kicked off Sunday, giving teams a chance to shake down their cars on the full 8.47-mile Circuit de la Sarthe before the race in two weeks.
The test day has become mandatory this year due to the jump from 56 teams to 60, per Crash.net. Today, the WEC notes that the No. 8 Audi R18 set the fastest time of the morning session with a 3:21.375, followed by the No. 1 Porsche 919 and the No. 2 Porsche 919, and with Toyota not far behind.
Of course, because it is a test day, teams are finding out what’s wrong ahead of the race, and some cars, such as the two LMGTE Pro-class AF Corse Ferrari 488s, are spending lots of time in the garage accordingly. It’s always hard to tell who will really be the fastest during for qualifying and the race based on testing data, but it’s always fun to guess anyway. The 24 Hours of Le Mans website has been putting detailed notes on every practice session here, for the curious.
There’s something about the big group photo of the cars that just does it for me every year, though. The front is manned by ground-bound spaceships as the field eases into cars that look a bit more normal at the back.

In this review, we will be comparing S3700 and W830, two Ultracompact cameras from Nikon and Sony. Both Nikon S3700 and Sony W830 cameras have 20.0MP 1/2.3" sensors.
Let's have a brief look at the main features of Nikon S3700 and Sony W830 before getting into our more detailed comparison.
Below you can see the front view size comparison of Nikon S3700 and Sony W830. Sony W830 is 3mm narrower and 6mm shorter than Nikon S3700 but it is also 3mm thicker.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Nikon S3700 and Sony W830.
Weight is another important factor especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day. Nikon S3700 is 4g lighter than the Sony W830 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Both Nikon S3700 and Sony W830 have 1/2.3" sized 20.0 MP resolution sensors so sensor size and resolution is not a differentiator between these two cameras.
Below you can see the S3700 and W830 sensor size comparison.
Nikon S3700 and Sony W830 have sensor sizes so they will provide same level of control over the depth of field when used with same focal length and aperture.
Nikon S3700 features a 25-200 mm F3.7-6.6 8× zoom lens whereas Sony W830 features a 25-200 mm F3.3-6.3 8× zoom lens.
Both cameras have a wide angle coverage of 25mm. On the other hand, with a max aperture of f3.30, Sony W830 is faster than Nikon S3700 at this focal length. Both cameras have a tele angle reach of 200mm. However, with a max aperture of f6.30, Sony W830 is faster than Nikon S3700 at this focal length.
What types of Photography are Nikon S3700 and Sony W830 Good for?
In this section, we rank and compare Nikon S3700 and Sony W830 for five different photography types in order to make your decision process easier in case you are specifically interested in one or more of these areas.
You may have already made your decision about which camera suits better for your needs and your budget so far but in case you wonder how we rated Nikon S3700 and Sony W830, below you can find their scores in five different aspects. Our Decision Algorithm dynamically scores cameras using 63 different specs, current price and DxO Mark scores (where possible) in order to make a more objective and consistent comparison.
Nikon S3700 has a higher Overall Score than the Sony W830 and would be our choice if we have to decide between these two cameras. | 2019-04-26T14:12:01 | https://cameradecision.com/compare/Nikon-Coolpix-S3700-vs-Sony-Cyber-shot-DSC-W830 |
Stumped for something to wear to the Dubai World Cup? Give an old dress a makeover inspired by high fashion – at a fraction of the cost of a new outfit.
On the racecourse, the pressure is exceedingly high – for the men behind the reins, yes, and for the women in the crowd, maybe even more so. Aside from sourcing the perfect hat for the occasion, much stress goes into finding the perfect dress. Simple strapless numbers repeated from previous affairs and humdrum high-street halter buys aren’t easily disguised, and are quickly forgotten. They’re not viable options for those seeking to take away “best-dressed” trophies, and many women would rather stay home than be dragged out wearing attire that’s plainly unremarkable.
This poses quite the challenge for female race attendees, and can lead to last-minute, late-night shopping trips to the mall where, in sheer desperation, dresses are purchased that are neither very loved, nor within budget. After they’re worn, photographed and perhaps published in the social pages of magazines, they’re hung in the backs of closets, boxed up and put in storage or given away to charity. What a waste.
For those on the brink of succumbing to the social pressure of buying a new dress for every ritzy occasion, there is a solution, both fashion forward and cost-efficient. It will require some imagination and willingness to let go of the old, but could result in a truly one-of-a-kind, custom-made, couture-inspired masterpiece.
With a bit of rejuvenation, even a decade-old prom gown or bridesmaid’s dress can be made into an entirely new creation, consistent with current runway trends, and perfect for an outing such as the Dubai World Cup. New dresses can cost up to Dh1,000 on the high street, and Dh25,000, or more, if they’re designer wear. But any existing dress can be chopped, lengthened, panelled and pleated to create something fresh and as good as new, costing anywhere from Dh100 upwards, depending on the design.
Sara Al Dimachki is the managing partner of 800 Tailor, which is a personalised, contemporary tailoring service that offers pick-up and delivery from and to clients’ doorsteps. She suggests why the idea of redesigning dresses may not appeal to all women in the UAE. “They always like to be seen in the latest collections, and some might see going to the tailor as a hassle,” she explains.
Another off-putting factor for women may be the fact that many tailoring shops in the UAE lack fashion-forward proficiency and are skilled only in making simple garments or copying existing cuts. The team behind 800 Tailor, on the other hand, is style savvy and experienced in high fashion, offering mass production and sampling services for established fashion designers, too.
Once on board with the project, hacking up an old dress shouldn’t be too emotionally challenging, especially if it was a one-time wear. The DIY craze has hit women worldwide for a reason: it’s fun. There’s a sense of pride in being innovative and achieving an end result that’s tailor-made (literally) to your own style.
Al Dimachki predicts that “romantic dresses with delicate fabrics and lace details, mix-and-match prints with bold colours and lots of trims such as feathers and fringes” will be the big trends at this year’s races. They echo many elements seen at spring/summer couture week in Paris. Collections from the likes of Christian Dior, Elie Saab, Giambattista Valli and Chanel can help you decide which cutting-edge couture trends to replicate in your redesign.
It’s almost every woman’s dream to dress in Dior, and at Raf Simons’ recent couture show for Christian Dior, we saw a fresh take on the floral dress. Bodices were angled downwards at the midriff, creating triangular peek-a-boo cut-outs under the bust line. This look can be replicated with any old dress – the more fabric, the better. It’s a great way to salvage an outdated design, and the hemline can be brought up to your liking. Style it like Simons did on the runway, with a thin belt or sparkly brooch at the waist.
Elie Saab’s designs are always ethereal and usually seem like an unattainable dream. His luxe laces with embroidery and beadwork are the basis of inspiration for countless wedding gowns every year.
For his latest couture collection, many of his signature silhouettes were spruced up with ostrich feathers. Stepping into the world of animal embellishments is dangerous territory, as there’s a fine line between being embellished and an over-the-top mess. But if you do have a lace shift dress hanging in your wardrobe, consider adding a touch of feathers or fringing to the skirt, cuffs or neckline.
The couture collection from Giambattista Valli made social-media waves after Rihanna donned one of the dresses straight off the runway at the Grammys last month. Many termed it “the cupcake dress”, and lots of Valli’s designs did feature a cupcake effect, with full-tiered skirts.
Keep the upper portion of your dress intact and give it new life with a different skirt piece. Take the dress with you to the fabric stores, and see what combination excites you. Don’t feel pressured to find an exact match; mixed-print dresses are on trend this season. Ginghams go great with florals, for instance, and textured textiles, such as eyelets, laces and leathers, will make the dress even more unique. For added drama, buy some tulle to attach beneath the skirt to give it that Valli couture cupcake look.
Chanel couture, meanwhile, comprised a collection of separates, with skirts and blazers or overcoats made from matching fabrics. If you feel you’ve outgrown the style of one of your dresses, but can’t bear to part with the print, try breaking it up into two pieces. While Chanel’s style of choice paired midi-length skirts with jackets and button-down blazers, a crop top will give a look that’s younger and fresher, and will also be easier (and cheaper) to construct. Alternatively, you could have your initial piece made into a simple slip dress, and make an overcoat for it from a lace or cut-out fabric – a design shown by Chanel in tweed-like sequins.
Once you’ve decided which couture trend will influence your redesign, find the fabric and embellishments to bring the vision to life. Scour the streets of Satwa in Dubai or browse through the textile shops in Abu Dhabi’s Madinat Zayed Shopping Centre and the fabric souq behind Hamdan Centre. Then, before setting out to the tailor, gather your inspiration materials, such as magazine cut-outs, runway printouts and sketches, showing as much detail as possible.
With the abundance of tailoring shops and fabric outlets in the Emirates, there’s no reason to shy away from attending an event because of a lack of new clothes. Neither is there a need to incessantly repeat outfits or waste unreasonable amounts of money buying new dresses every month. Wear a dress once, twice, three times or more, and a few years later, when it begins to bore you, pull out your scissors and sketchbook, and begin revamping – keeping the latest couture creations in mind. | 2019-04-21T10:16:31 | https://www.thenational.ae/arts-culture/dubai-world-cup-fashion-out-with-the-old-in-with-couture-1.51594 |

Skim the title of Kimberly A. Francis’s new book and you could be forgiven for assuming that Igor Stravinsky had at one point been a student of Nadia Boulanger. And why not? La grande dame of 20th century French music pedagogy taught basically everyone: Aaron Copland, Elliott Carter, Daniel Barenboim, Philip Glass, Astor Piazzolla — heck, Quincy Jones. But she never taught Stravinsky, who was five years her senior and already on the brink of international stardom when she was first knocked sideways hearing his music (the Paris premiere of The Firebird) aged 23 in 1910. Two decades later, now a revered teacher at the École nationale, she did teach his son Soulima and thereby became Stravinsky’s friend, advisor, ardent champion, sometime surrogate family member, maybe more. Theirs was a shifting and not-always-clearly-defined relationship, and in Francis’s hands it makes for engrossing reading.
The book’s subtitle is Nadia Boulanger and the Consecration of a Modernist Icon, full of enticingly loaded terms. The degree to which Boulanger came to consecrate Stravinsky as the 20th century’s most important composer has provided plenty of musicological gossip and gender prejudice over the decades, and Francis rightly smarts at some of the more belittling epitaphs including Virgil Thomson’s “musical midwife” or Robert Craft’s “prodigious proof-reader”. She laments what she sees as sexist sidelining in standard Stravinsky literature of a woman who threw her considerable cultural clout behind the composer’s neoclassicism, crafted his public image, taught his works to generations of influential students and provided robust creative feedback.
We get ample glimpses of Boulanger’s intellectual fierceness. Clearly she had a better mind for nitty-gritty than Stravinsky did, and it shows in her fastidious corrections of the Symphony of Psalms, Dumbarton Oaks, Persephone and other drafts. But Francis also gives Boulanger credit for shaping Stravinsky’s life choices as well as his artistic ones. She attributes his religious swing in the 1940s to Boulanger’s arrival in California and infers that the rise of Robert Craft as close advisor to Stravinsky in the last two decades of his life filled a vacuum left by Boulanger’s departure from the United States after the Second World War. While Craft encouraged the composer towards serialism, “Stravinsky needed to distance himself from tonality — and, by extension, one can only assume, from Boulanger”.
Francis declares her own colours early: “This is first and foremost a feminist account of Boulanger’s professional interactions with Stravinsky, his family, and his music,” she tells us, with due doffing-of-hat to feminist musicologists like Marcia Citron, Annegret Fauser, Ellie Hisama, Carol Oja and Judith Tucker. It’s hard to know what gender meant for Boulanger herself. Certainly her relationship to feminism wasn’t straightforward: she believed a woman should only pursue a profession if absolutely necessary and that a career should never jeopardise the responsibilities of mother and wife — seemingly at odds with her lifelong pursuit of status and success. She never married, never had children.
Francis’s broader point that Stravinsky relied heavily on the movers and shakers around him is hardly a new one, but she brings Boulanger closer into the fold than ever before. He needed her as much as she needed him. She secured commissions and promoted his music, bolstering his career and her own status as cultural taste-maker. It’s a convincing case. The book ends with a more general plea that we shift musicological narratives away from the cult of the individual toward a more Bourdieunian acknowledgement of the interdependent people who make art happen. “There has yet to be a large-scale use of Bourdieu within the historical musicological literature,” Francis points out, which maybe isn’t surprising given collective attribution is an uncomfortable fit for an industry that likes to promote the myth of creative genius. By readdressing the Boulanger-Stravinsky dynamic, Francis has done her bit.

The patented PALFINGER "AOS" oscillation suppression system cancels out vibrations and blows that occur during crane operation. Any "post-oscillation" is prevented through rapid braking or load changes. The result is a decisive increase to safety in crane operation for employees, the load and building.
The electronics receive signals from pressure sensors on both sides of the elevating cylinder and interpret them as arm vibrations. The signals for the counter-movement of the elevating cylinder are handled by the control valve. The incurred vibration can be cancelled through the exactly determined frequency and wavelength. The result is damping of the arm to just one or two short vibrations so that the arm comes to an immediate standstill.
The High Performance Stability Control (HPSC) is a fully proportional system for monitoring the stability of the crane vehicle. Sensors for proportional path measurement in the stabilizer supports permit completely variable support positioning. Hence, the permissible, safe working range can be calculated for any support situation.
The HPSC system calculates the permissible working range for any slewing angle of the boom system and for any support situation. The position of the stabilizer support is detected by means of a cable extension transducer or magnetostrictive position sensor. Based on the intelligent calculation algorithm developed by PALFINGER, it works more efficiently than comparable systems that are available in the market.
P-Fold is a new PALFINGER assistance system. It makes folding and unfolding an easy job for the operator. The P-Fold system also works in combination with the innovative RTC (Rope Tension Control). Both systems perfectly support the crane’s set-up processes and thus reduce set-up times to a minimum. The operator will be guided safe and clearly thanks to the intuitive menu navigation of the new PALcom P7 – a major benefit also for inexperienced operators. In addition to the significant increase in operator comfort, the prevention of damage on vehicle, load and rope is another important point.
PALFINGER has continued development of the well-proven stability control system HPSC and is offering additional application-orientated functions in a modular system. Three modules which are available on their own as well as combined, turn HPSC into HPSC-Plus. In this way, the stability control system can be adapted to the current situation and ensure an optimal performance.

As a global coffee grower and producer, we are at the forefront of engineering elevated taste experiences for consumers through our innovative processing methods. We are committed to fixing a broken farm model, leaving coffee better than we found it, with guiding principles of taste, humanity, and ecology.
Ninety Plus believes in the power of taste. In our beginnings, we hunted among existing specialty lots for coffee that tasted extraordinary, and when our pursuit failed, we knew creating meaningful coffee was our destiny. Taste quickly became our vision, and we began developing the first scientific coffee production operation driven by the discovery of flavor. To this day, we aren’t afraid to take risks or break boundaries, and we continue challenging the traditional practices of cherry and coffee processing with the intent of upgrading the industry’s status quo. However, through experience, we’ve realized that we can’t create new flavors without having a fundamentally collaborative work ethic, a humanistic communal culture, and an outstanding relationship with the land. We’re driven to elevate taste with the knowledge that coffee can be treated better, and we’re proud to say that we’ve successfully established a menu of memorable experience, rather than simply coffee.
For centuries, traditional coffee farm workers have lived impoverished lives and suffered from low wages and belittlement in the workplace. Ninety Plus challenges these standards by making humanity a priority, providing fair pay and living conditions for its growing workforce, and establishing a culture built on taste, education, and collaboration on its farms. With education at the center, we create new opportunities, incentives to advance, and competitive compensation for our employees. Subsequently, our workers gain ownership over their work, their quality of life and happiness improve, and our coffee excels. With this structure, we’ve constructed an expanding community of farm workers who are united and inspired by the common objective to improve coffee.
Ninety Plus recognizes the importance of reforesting and preserving agricultural lands. When we first launched our operation, we knew that we could become an example for the rest of the world by shattering the boundaries of traditional commodity coffee farming. As a result, we set our sights on formulating a distinctly unique coffee experience, entered into a relationship with nature, and put the spotlight on ecology. Presently, we’re dedicated to growing long-living, heirloom varieties that thrive under 100 percent natural management techniques, conserve biodiversity, and maximize the health of the ecosystem and its inhabitants. We cultivate shade-loving plants at low-density areas with native forest canopy trees and consistently achieve exceptionally flavorful coffee varieties. Yet, the reward goes beyond the coffee itself. Today, the vegetation and animals are flourishing, and what were once overgrazed farms are now prosperous forests that are sustained by restoration, topsoil and water retention, increased environmental variance, and a community of residential and seasonal workers.

The unique design gives the Sony Tablet S tabletop advantages, but the lack of 3G or 4G connection speeds can be a little annoying. This is a good tablet with just a few limitations.
The design is a unique selling point for the Sony Tablet S. Most tablets are completely flat, but you usually need to set the tablet at an edge to avoid any glares. The Sony Tablet S has a bevel in the back that puts it at a slight angle when placed flat on a table or lap. This makes it much easier to see the tablet, and hands-free usage is much more intuitive.
The rest of the tablet looks very sleek. The back of this tablet is somewhat textured to help keep it in place. This is much better than smooth tablets, as this will ensure that the tablet is not moving all over the place when put on a table.
The features are basically identical to those built into the Android 3.1 OS, but the Sony Tablet S does have a few unique features. You get Sony’s Video Unlimited Service, but there aren’t many videos up there right now.
The tablet can also automatically function as a universal remote. The remote quickly integrates with devices, but the controller itself is limited by basic commands.
Since Sony built this tablet, the Tablet S is PlayStation certified. The only bad thing about this is that you need to buy the games from Sony before you can play them.
The hardware for the Tablet S isn’t bad, but it isn’t groundbreaking. You get a 1GHz processor, and you also get 1GB of RAM. You can also choose between a 16GB or 32GB hard drive. The rear camera is five megapixels, but the front one is one 0.3 megapixels.
The hardware is rather standard, but there is one place where the Tablet S excels: battery life. The battery should last about eight hours on a normal charge. This is longer than most of the other modern tablets, so that should give you a good amount of time to work or have fun.
The Tablet S is loaded with the Android 3.1 OS, but it really only comes with the pre-installed apps common to that OS. There are a few Sony specific apps that were covered in the “Features” section that can be nice.
You do have access to Google Play, so that enables you to buy from the many apps there. The software is good just starting out, but it’s really nothing out of the norm.
The resolution and screen size are both very good for this tablet. The resolution is a crisp 1280-by-800. This should make all the games and videos look great when you play them. The screen size is also 9.4 inches. That isn’t huge, but it’s still a good size that will do very well with the Internet, or anything else you plan to use this tablet for.
One interesting thing about this tablet is that it has TruBlack technology. This technology is used more often in Sony’s TVs, but it really works with this tablet.
TruBlack technology is a new way of displaying black that makes it richer. This causes better contrast on the screen, and this makes the colors really pop. Everything looks more vibrant, and it all comes together beautifully.
Some people have complained that the screen is too dark. There are brightness controls, but even the brightest setting can sometimes look dark. This problem usually isn’t too bad, but some darker games or movies may be a little difficult to watch.
While the Sony Tablet S is limited in a few areas, it is still a very powerful tablet that has some interesting features, and it comes with a useful design. The Tablet S doesn’t differentiate itself much from the basic Android OS, but you can still customize your software by just buying a few apps.
This is a good tablet, and it is definitely worth the money. Try it out, and you will see how good the Tablet S can be. | 2019-04-20T20:57:11 | http://tablets.top10reviews.co.za/sony-tablet-s/ |

Maemo, known as the "Internet Tablet OS," is a software platform developed by Nokia for their line of Internet tablets. The Maemo platform , with an operating system and the Maemo SDK, is based on Debian Linux and Gnome (Figure 1).
In 2008 Nokia announced the acquisition of Trolltech, makers of the Qt application framework. The easily extensible Qt provides all the necessary functionality for building applications with state-of-the-art graphical user interfaces, I/O, and networking. Applications written with Qt range from the KDE desktop, to computer softphones such as Skype, to the Opera web browser, to applications such as Google Earth and MythTV.
After the Trolltech acquisition, Nokia said that Qt would "accelerate its cross-platform software strategy for mobile devices and desktop applications and develop its Internet services business." In the beginning of 2009, Nokia released a set of packages enabling support for Qt in Maemo .
Another result of the acquisition was the recently announced Nokia N900, a fully Qt-supported Nokia device. Although only the Nokia N900 Internet Tablets provide native Maemo support, many applications are already written for the Maemo platform based on previous Nokia tablets, such as the N800 and N810. In addition, Qt provides some support for the Nokia Symbian platform. In both Maemo and Symbian, platform developers can implement Qt applications in C++ or Python. The latest stable version of Qt is 4.5.
In this article, I describe how to start developing Qt applications for the Maemo platform . First, I'll show you how to set up Qt with the Scratchbox embedded development toolkit on a Nokia N810, then I'll take you through some examples, starting with a simple Hello World application and ending with an app that displays city maps using the Qt WebKit and the Google Maps API.
The latest versions of Qt provide a complete mobile and embedded development platform based on the open source Qt toolkit. The modular Qt architecture offers building blocks for assembling a Linux-based software stack for various embedded devices, ranging from phones to set-top boxes. The Qt Extended platform comprises 19 separate components that span a broad range of functionality, including messaging, multimedia, and productivity.
The underlying telephony stack of the Qt Extended architecture (Figure 2) supports GSM, GPRS, and VoIP and supplies reference implementations that hardware makers can replace or extend. These pieces are wrapped with an abstraction layer that gives developers access that is consistent across Qt Extended devices. The Qt Extended messaging component spans the full range of mobile communication technologies, including SMS, MMS, email, and instant messaging. It is built on top of Telepathy, a modular communication framework that is also used on the Maemo platform and is increasingly being adopted on the Linux desktop. The platform includes a messaging library that provides developers with a high-level API for composing messages and manipulating the system's message data store. It also exposes Telepathy-based services, including XMPP communication, via Telepathy's Gabble connection manager.
In addition to including an audio and video playback infrastructure, the multimedia framework in Qt Extended also offers a set of common widgets for building multimedia applications. The top layer of the multimedia stack is the Phonon abstraction library. Qt Extended supports Helix and GStreamer back ends for Phonon, but adopters can also make their own back ends to plug into the stack. The multimedia stack also supports a DRM implementation that is compatible with the Open Mobile Alliance DRM standard.
The platform's built-in personal information management (PIM) layer, constructed on top of the SQLite database library, is fully extensible and can be accessed by multiple applications simultaneously. The toolkit includes synchronization APIs and widgets you can use to develop new PIM applications. The platform even comes with a reference implementation of a very basic PIM suite.
Qt Extended is distributed under the same kind of dual-licensing model as the desktop toolkit – that is, with a commercial and an open source licence under GPL. For more information about Qt in the Maemo platform, check out the Maemo Qt4 website .
Scratchbox is a cross-compilation toolkit designed to simplify embedded Linux application development. The Scratchbox toolkit also provides a full set of tools to integrate and cross-compile an entire Linux distribution. Nokia has adopted Scratchbox to facilitate the process of developing those applications in the desktop and to compile it for the ARM architecture that is used in Maemo devices.
First, you need to install Scratchbox and the Maemo Diablo SDK on your host machine . After installing Scratchbox, there are two possible targets: ARMEL, used to emulate applications for Armel-based platforms, and X86-based platforms. For both cases, Qt4 development support is not installed by default, so you must install Qt4 as well as the libraries for both targets. To start, you need to add the extra and extra devel repositories to Scratchbox apt-get sources and install the Qt libraries. See the box titled "Installing the Qt Environment."
Then open the /etc/apt/sources.list file with vi.
Press Esc when you are finished, and type the command :x plus the Enter key to save the changes and quit vi.
Now you are ready to developing Qt applications for the Maemo platform.
Next, you need to install Qt4 and PyQt4 on a Nokia N810 Internet Tablet. Although I will use the N810 for this example, you should also be able to follow these steps using a Nokia N800 device. PyQt is a set of bindings that allows programmers to access a Qt library through Python. To install Qt4 and PyQt4 on an N810, you must be running the Maemo OS2008 system with the Python environment installed on your device.
The first step is to enable the extras-devel repository in your N810. Open the web browser on the N810 and go to http://qt4.garage.maemo.org. Scroll down the page until find something similar to Figure 3, and click on the link Click to install DEVEL, which will open the File Download dialog box.
Click on the Open button to open the file after it downloads. This will launch the maemo application manager application. You will be asked if you want to add the Qt4 repository in the sources.list file. Click on the OK button to add the Qt repository.
Clicking on the Browse installable applications option and typing Qt4, as shown in Figure 4, lets you search for the Qt packages available in the Maemo Application manager. A list of the Qt4 packages will appear. Install all the Qt4 packages you consider important, but at the very least, install the packages libqt-core, libqt-gui, python2.5-qt4-core, and python2.5qt4-gui. | 2019-04-24T13:55:59 | http://www.linuxpromagazine.com/index.php/layout/set/print/Issues/2009/109/Qt-for-Maemo |

Analog Devices, Inc. today announced a transceiver series that enables high-definition (HD) video over existing Unshielded Twisted Pair cables and unshielded connectors. This allows OEMs to upgrade easily from standard-definition cameras to HD cameras and provide the superior resolution and image quality required for today’s automotive camera applications. The new ADV7990 and ADV7991 transmitters and ADV7380 and ADV7381 receivers use ADI’s Car Camera Bus (C2B™) technology to enable significant savings in weight, bulk, cost, and reduce cable-routing constraints when compared to other automotive link solutions.
The ADV7990/91 and ADV7380/81 transceivers feature negligible latency along with uncompressed transmission; the bidirectional control channel uses the same cable and thus incurs no additional costs. These devices support a 75-MHz pixel rate (75 MHz Y, 75 MHz C) “frozen frame” detection while the bidirectional control function supports I2C, interrupt/status and general-purpose I/O (GPIO). | 2019-04-22T04:14:33 | https://www.theengineer.co.uk/supplier-network/product/analog-devices-transceivers-bring-high-def-video-via-existing-vehicle-cable-and-connector-infrastructure/ |
Finnish phone maker Nokia this morning announced that it has expanded its existing partnership with social gaming giant Zynga to bring hit games like Zynga Poker and Draw Something to Asha Touch devices in the third quarter of 2012.
Nokia says that means “over 100 million” consumers will get to play the games by fall this year.
The partnership between Zynga and Nokia, which was originally announced in June 2012, will also bring Zynga’s hit games to Nokia Lumia smartphones and Windows Phones during autumn 2012, including Words With Friends and Draw Something.
Nokia Asha Touch devices include the Asha 305, Asha 306 and Asha 311.
The announcement reinforces Nokia’s commitment to delivering must-have app and gaming experiences to consumers of Nokia Series 40 devices, including the Nokia Asha Touch range. Nokia Asha Touch users already enjoy a variety of mobile gaming experiences enabled by global partners such as EA, Gameloft, Rovio, NAMCO BANDAI and now, Zynga.
Zynga’s Draw Something and Zynga Poker will both be free to download from Nokia Store, which Nokia claims has seen 5 billion downloads to date.
The company also asserts that, from January to April 2012, 42 percent of all content downloaded from the Nokia Store was delivered to Series 40 devices, including the Asha Touch range. | 2019-04-20T23:23:59 | https://thenextweb.com/mobile/2012/08/17/zynga-nokia-expand-partnership-bring-poker-game-draw-something-asha-touch-devices-q3-2012/ |

How people live and how quickly that changes throughout our lives is quite crazy when you think about it. For many years most of us thought of IKEA as products that we all just use for a short period and then discard, but Ikea is certainly doing everything right to change this habit.
Last year they launched first part of their collaboration with Tom Dixon; the DELAKTIG sofa series, which could be personalized and transformed throughout its lifetime with changeable backrests, armrests, and covers, you could even add a lamp. The frame itself is made out of 50 % recycled aluminum, which is 100% reusable over and over again.
Now they have taken the collaboration a step further, launching the new DELAKTIG bed and new colors for the sofa cover. As the sofa launch didn’t excite me too much and my initial thought about the IKEA and Tom’s collab was very unexpected, but still intriguing. I was curious to get a closer look on the new bed and to have a chat about the further collaboration. I sat down with Tom & James Futcher, Creative Leader at IKEA, at the launch in Lisbon last week, definitely answered some of my question. IKEA wanted to bring some coolness factor to the table, and who better than one of the most known designer name right now. Tom, on the other hand, wanted to work with the biggest, and that’s definitely IKEA. They also have knowledge about their consumer, which is literally all of us, that no other interior design company have, which is pretty unique, with world-wide sales, they just know so much about what’s going on in our homes.
The sofa isn’t for me, which mostly is because I think it mostly works for a very young target group, which doesn’t change the fact that it’s a product that will only be used for a shorter period of time. The new bed, however, I find MUCH more long-lasting, it somehow seems to fit into any household, which was certainly also shown at the event in Lisbon. At the event, which was build-up as a hotel with 5 different rooms; the everyday fabulous room, the green room, the family room, the minimalist room, and the comfort room, where the bed and the entire DELAKTIG really came into its own. It’s easy to see how versatile the bed really is. Dare I say, I really loved the everyday fabulous room, I wonder why?
Where I don’t get why you would want to change your sofa all the time, other than the cover, I get it with the new changeable bed. I have had my bed for about 4 years now, and while the frame is the same, I wouldn’t mind having a headboard and side tables I could just change depending on my mood.
The bed frame is made on the same principles as the sofa, with a frame made out of 50 % recycled aluminum, headboard, side table and lamps all flat packed, and finally a mattress after your choice, delivered in a vacuum seal to take up as little space in transit as possible – from a sustainable point of view, it works. And to be quite honest, I really like the overall look of the bed, very aviator sleek. So, IKEA & Mr. Dixon, job well done, I am happy you evolve the sofa into a bed that I really see a great market for.
The entire new collection, including the bed, will be available in stores and online from Friday, February 8th.
Paid partnership with IKEA Danmark. Thoughts and opinions are 100% my own. Thanks for supporting collaborations that I am excited about and that have kept Bungalow5’s doors open.
Beautiful bed! Really liked how they showcased it in different styled rooms. Thanks for sharing this post Allan. | 2019-04-19T10:14:17 | https://bungalow5.dk/get-a-sneak-peek-of-the-new-hackable-ikea-bed-designed-by-tom-dixon/ |
Part of our 12 Pokes of Christmas. Look out for more throughout December.
With the holiday season upon us, it’s time to ask the tough questions. Like, who gets onto the Christmas card list this year? The nice cab driver who returned your iPhone last week. Or Julie from Personnel, who was definitely a bit snippy in the elevator this morning. It’s a significant task, sharing the seasonal love, but fortunately help is at hand. A robot hand, to be precise.
Heineken’s ‘Spark Your Holidays’ campaign allows people to send personalised greetings to loved ones, hand-written by a robot. Visitors to the campaign site enter a 400-character message along with a destination address. This is then transcribed by a robot arm moving a pen across the page, mimicking personalised script. Finally, the message is physically mailed to the recipient. | 2019-04-20T16:35:30 | https://www.elmwood.com/daily_pokes/seasons-greetings-by-robot-hand/ |
House of Prayer Lutheran has had a partner parish in Ifunda Tanzania for over 15 years. We stand “shoulder to shoulder” (Bega Kwa Bega in Swahili) to proclaim the gospel and to support each other through prayer and relationships, offering each of us the opportunity to expand our worldly horizons and grow in our faith.
We have helped our partner parish purchase bicycles for Evangelists and a motor bike for the Pastor. We have provided funds to roof and cement eight preaching point churches, scholarships for education and much more. Our latest project is helping our partners improve their crop production through the Ag Project.
Dozens of our members have traveled to Ifunda, Tanzania on mission trips to strengthened our relationship.
Each year the Ifunda mission group hosts the Community Christmas Breakfast to support our companionship with Ifunda.
Since 1998, the St. Paul Area Synod of the ELCA has been involved in a partner relationship with the Iringa Diocese (synod) of the ELCT, which is the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Tanzania. Over the last 11 years, this relationship has linked local St. Paul congregations with parishes in the Iringa area (central highlands) of Tanzania, and over 60 such sister congregation relationships have been formed.
House of Prayer began its sister connection with the Ifunda parish in 1999, and we have enjoyed an ever-expanding relationship during the last 10 years. We support one another in prayer and care, and HOP commits $1,000 each year to help the ministry efforts of Ifunda. In ’01, ’03, ’05, ’07, ’09, ’11 and ’14 HOP has sent groups of travelers to Ifunda, where our “missionaries” were graciously welcomed into the incredible excitement and love of the believers at Ifunda. In ’06, we provided the opportunity for the pastor and others from Ifunda to travel to St. Paul to share life with us. These visits have strengthened and cemented relationships by enabling the travelers to better understand the culture, faith, and life of our sisters and brothers in Christ across the world.
Over the years, we have supported the Ifunda parish in various special ways, including monies to purchase coffee plants, fertilizer, insecticides; bicycles for the evangelists and a motorbike for the pastor; roofing materials and cement for the various “preaching point” churches; equipment for new wells and clean water; a new home/parish office for the pastor and his family; and generous ongoing support for secondary school scholarships.
For most Tanzanians, life is an enormous struggle for water, wood for cooking fires, adequate food for the family, school fees for children and medical care. Subsistence farmers, who make up the majority of the population, face periodic droughts.
The Iringa Diocese is divided into two main areas, the highland zone and the lowland zone. Our companion church, Ifunda is in the lowland zone. This area consists of mainly tall grasses and bushes. Most of the parishes are connected with rough and seasonal roads. Travel during the rainy season is very often difficult. The rainy season starts in November and ends in May. The remaining period of the year is the dry season. People in the Ifunda area grow corn, beans, tobacco, fruits, coffee, and trees (for timber). They often keep animals like cattle, goats, sheep and chicken. | 2019-04-18T22:19:17 | http://www.houseofprayerlutheran.org/ministries/tanzania/ |

Xi Jinping has said China's friendship with Russia guarantees "strategic balance and peace" in the world, on the second day of his trip to Moscow.
Mr Xi, on his first official overseas trip as leader, has already met President Vladimir Putin.
He described the Russian leader as a "good friend".
On Friday, Russia's state-owned energy firm Rosneft agreed to triple oil supplies to China in return for a $2bn (£1.3bn) loan.
The two countries also agreed a preliminary deal for a gas pipeline to be built, although analysts say they are still a long way from agreeing terms.
Russia is one of the world's biggest energy producers, and China is the world's top energy consumer.
Bilateral trade reached a record $88bn last year, but the figure is still a fraction of China's trade with the EU and the US.
In recent years, the two nations have also been closely aligned on global political issues.
They have vetoed attempts by other members of the UN Security Council to authorise tougher action against Syria's government.
And they have been largely in agreement over North Korea's nuclear programme.
Mr Xi told students at the Moscow State Institute of International Relations that China would continue to oppose interference in the internal affairs of other countries.
"We must respect the right of each country in the world to independently choose its path of development," he said.
"Strong high-level Chinese-Russian ties not only meet our interests, but serve as an important, reliable guarantee of international strategic balance and peace."
During the Cold War the two countries, while both nominally Communist, were bitter rivals.
But both sides have been full of praise for each other during Mr Xi's visit.
"We can already say this is a historic visit with positive results," Mr Putin said.
Mr Xi was confirmed as China's president last week, concluding a lengthy transition process that saw him assume the Communist Party leadership in November 2012.
Commentators say he is much more charismatic than his predecessor, Hu Jintao.
On the first day of his trip to Russia, Mr Xi stepped off the plane with his wife, well-known singer Peng Liyuan.
Ms Peng's appearance was widely reported in China's state media, and caused an outpouring of debate on microblogs.
One message on the Sina Weibo website said: "China's quest for a graceful first lady is over." | 2019-04-21T16:08:16 | https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-china-21911842 |

There has been much debate over the use of tablets in the classroom. A good portion of that debate involves the costs involved in and supporting the use of the actual devices themselves.
Yes, tablets are a big investment. But recent research has shown that they are a great equalizer in the classroom. Regardless of a student’s capabilities, there are things that can be done with a tablet that can’t necessarily be done with other technology.
In a recent essay published by Amplify Education, Michael Mills, an assistant professor at the University of Central Arkansas, writes that the investment in tablet devices is well worth it.
Beth Holland, a doctoral student at Johns Hopkins University and instructor at EdTechTeacher, writes that tablets have the ability to create a least restrictive environment in the classroom.
“By leveraging the capabilities of mobile devices, teachers can support their students in creating a personalized learning environment with the least number of barriers,” she writes (http://www.edutopia.org/blog/least-restrictive-environment-mobile-devices-beth-holland).
Here are just a few examples of how tablets can help students — with disabilities or without — learn more effectively.
For students who either have some sort of visual impairment or a movement disorder, reading for long periods of time can be difficult, if not impossible. One of the great things about tablets are they offer a way for students to listen to text instead of reading. Text-to-speech functionality on tablet devices can really change a student’s life.
“Think about the benefit of allowing students to experience text through more than one modality, providing them even more opportunities to connect with the written material,” Holland writes.
In an article on Gizmodo, Matthew Lynch, dean of the School of Education at Virginia Union University, points toward mobile modules as a key aspect of integrating tablet devices into the classroom.
But one of the strongest arguments for using tablets int the classroom, especially with students with varying levels of ability, is the motivation they help create for learning.
An article on EdTechReview specifically addresses the importance of motivation and classroom success.
So, yes, tablets are an investment. But for students with special needs or a physical disability, tablets can transform their educational experience. | 2019-04-20T02:59:24 | https://tablettable.net/2016/08/15/benefits-tablets-classroom/ |

As a real esate professional, I spend a lot of my working hours in my vehicle. I'm in many different houses, working with many different people, shaking a lot of hands throughout the day.
Now I have to admit that I'm a slight germaphobe. My hands are so dry from the amount of times I wash them throughout the day. But when I'm out and about working, I'm not always close to a sink.
This is where hand sanitation wipes come in handy. But have you ever read the ingredients on those things? Which is worse - dirty, germie hands or chemical soaked hands? I'll choose neither, thank you.
So after some research, I've come up with a great homemade hand wipe recipe that's super easy and super inexpensive to make. These are great for washing on the go and they fit right into the console of my vehicle...no more dirty hands for me.
You don't need a lot of ingredients for this recipe and to make it easy for you, I've listed the ingredients below the video.
You may need to play with the soap portions. The first time I made this recipe I used 2 tbsps of Castile soap and found the wipes way to sudsy.
Also, you want to use a very strong paper towel brand. Otherwise, they'll just become sloppy towels that fall apart.
I'd love to know how you like this recipe so be sure to leave me a comment below...I read every single comment.
1 Tbsp of Liquid Soap - Castile Soap, Baby Wash, Hand Soap, Shower Gel, whatever you'd like to use. | 2019-04-25T00:02:05 | https://www.foothillslistings.com/blog.html/blog.52894,52349,50924,49974,45704,42318,42313,42248,42243/how-to-make-homemade-hand-wipes-3665944 |
Open vSwitch (OVS) is a programmable software switch that can execute actions at per packet level. This document explains how to use the tracing tool to know what is happening with packets as they go through the data plane processing.
The ovs-vswitchd(8) manpage describes basic usage of the ofproto/trace command used for tracing in Open vSwitch. For a tool with a goal similar to ofproto/trace for tracing packets through OVN logical switches, see ovn-trace(8).
If you can’t use a “real” OVS setup you can use ovs-sandbox, as described in Open vSwitch Advanced Features, which also provides additional tracing examples.
The first line adds a rule in table 3 matching on TCP/IP packet with destination port 80 (HTTP). If a packet matches, the action is to output the packet on OpenFlow port 2.
The second line is similar but matches on destination port 22. If a packet matches, the action is to output the packet on OpenFlow port 1.
The next two lines matches on source IP addresses. If there is a match, the packet is submitted to table indicated as parameter to the resubmit() action.
The first line is the trace command. The br0 is the bridge where the packet is going through. The next arguments describe the packet itself. For instance, the nw_src matches with the IP source address. All the packet fields are well documented in the ovs-fields(7) man-page.
The second line shows the flow extracted from the packet described in the command line. Unspecified packet fields are zeroed.
The second group of lines shows the packet’s trip through bridge br0. We see, in table 0, the OpenFlow flow that the fields matched, along with its priority, followed by its actions, one per line. In this case, we see that this packet matches the flow that resubmit those packets to table 2. The “resubmit” causes a second lookup in OpenFlow table 2, described by the block of text that starts with “2.”. In the second lookup we see that this packet matches the rule that outputs those packets to OpenFlow port #1.
In summary, it is possible to follow the flow entries and actions until the final decision is made. At the end, the trace tool shows the Megaflow which matches on all relevant fields followed by the data path actions.
In the second group of lines, in table 0, you can see that the packet matches with the rule because of the source IP address, so it is resubmitted to the table 2 as before. However, it doesn’t match any rule there. When the packet doesn’t match any rule in the flow tables, it is called a table miss. The virtual switch table miss behavior can be configured and it depends on the OpenFlow version being used. In this example the default action was to drop the packet. | 2019-04-24T06:52:12 | http://docs.openvswitch.org/en/latest/topics/tracing/ |
Yesterday Luke Baldock was elected to serve as a Conservative Councillor on Snodland Town Council. Up until recently Snodland was one of Labour's safest areas but following the local elections last May, the area now has 5 Borough Councillors and a Conservative controlled Town Council. Luke's victory yesterday demonstrates even further how fed up local people are with Labour. Ironically, this election need never have happened. As I have previously written on this blog, since it was a Town Council by-election, the Conservative administration were very happy to follow usual practice and co-opt a Councillor but a Labour Councillor insisted on an election at the expense of local taxpayers. This result is therefore the right result. Luke will make an excellent Councillor and I am looking forward to working with him in the future.
Good result -- shame about the cost!
This is a big blow to Labour and to Jonathan Shaw who lives in Snodland and has taken our support for granted for too long.
Snodland East is the safest Labour area in the area. It has been Labour stronghold for 40 years. Labour threw everything at this campaign. If they cannot win here it shows just how much trouble they are in. With a year to go before the General Election I think the writing is on the wall for Labour.

This is where you recommend one book as you drop by, old, recent, middle aged – it doesn’t matter. All that’s needed is a title, nothing more nothing less. Think of it as the old oak tree of the blogosphere on which instead of carving your name you leave a book to read.
“Really? That good?” & Go back and reread ’em. A pretty good read. (& Reread).
That sounds fascinating. Another tremendous suggestion.
That’s a great mix of books. I’ll keep an eye out for them.
The Art of War, Sun Tzu, something everyone should read…….
Glad you dropped by. The book sounds intriguing, I love travel and good travel books are always nice to come by.
I’ll check that out – sounds compelling, and the jazz theme is right up my alleyway.

Here at Hotels Fairy we are committed to helping you find the best deals on hotels from around the web. But just how good a deal is it possible to find? Could you stay in a hotel for less than £10 per night? Here is a short list with the world’s cheapest hotels.
If you’re travelling around China on a shoestring, then you’ll be glad of a clean, safe room (even if very basic) at the Super 8 Jia He Hotel.
It may not be the world’s most stylish or luxurious hotel, but with double rooms from just £15 per night including free broadband Internet, you can’t really complain.
Located in one of the city’s most traditional areas, and with a beautiful entrance courtyard, Hostal de la Boca is the perfect place to stay if you want a real taste of colourful Argentinian culture.
Beds in dormitories start from £5, and they also have cheap double rooms from £14 and triple rooms from £18.
You’ll have to share a room with people you don’t know, but Hostel 639 offers you a warm welcome and a clean, safe place to stay the night, right outside Kensal Green tube station, giving you easy access to London’s many attractions.
Girls can stay in a female only dormitory for only £9.90 per night, but men have to fork out an extra 10p for a bed in a mixed room. Despite being one of the most expensive cities in the world, it seems that you can stay in London for less than £10.
Travel to the centre of Europe and you can get even better value, with private double rooms at the Judit Apartments from just £18.50 per night. It may be a bit 70s, but it’s just a short walk from the river Danube and the immense WestEnd shopping centre.
It’s also only just outside the main city centre, and being apartments you can save even more money by self-catering in the basic kitchen facilities provided. Guest reviews range from excellent to awful, but in reality, it depends on whether your expectations are realistic.
The name of this hotel sounds far too grand to be on this list, especially when you hear that you can book double deluxe rooms for less than £12.
This 3-star hotel isn’t exactly luxury in practice, and it is outside of the main tourist centre of Bangkok, but it does have decent guest reviews, and if you’re looking to cheap place to stay in Bangkok, you won’t get much better than this.
Set in a peaceful location just 1 km from the popular beach resort of Calangute in Goa, India, this is probably the cheapest place in Paradise.
The hotel is basic and quite dated, but the staff are reputed to be helpful and it does have its own pool. It’s a little worrying that the hotel claims to be an ideal retreat for “mature travellers” and its postal address is a nursing home, but hopefully that’s just a strange coincidence.
Forget staying for under a tenner, at the Hotel Sayang Maha Mertha in Bali, you can stay for less than £4 per night, making it one of the cheapest hotels in Indonesia, if not the entire world. The hotel is walking distance from Kuta Beach and the staff are generally found to be friendly and helpful, but don’t expect too much for this price. If a cheap bed for the night is all you need, then go for it.
Also in Bali is Nick’s Pension, which is much more comfortable and located close to many of Bali’s main attractions in Ubud, but it is more than twice the price with double rooms costing around £20 per night so it just depends how thin your shoestring is.
A short taxi ride away from the attractive historic city centre of Kraków is a pleasant four-star (yes 4 star!!) hotel with double rooms available for less than £20 per night.
Some guests have reported that some of the hotel’s facilities such as the swimming pool and gym are not always open, which may explain the low room rates, but if you want a comfortable hotel in Kraków then you won’t get much better value than this.
Easy to reach from the main highways and just a few miles from the many famous theme parks and attractions in Orlando, Sunstyle Suites is ideal for anyone seeking a cheap holiday in Florida. The rooms are pleasant and well equipped with cable TV and free wireless Internet, and kitchen facilities are available for those who want to self cater.
The El Cortez Hotel in the historic downtown area of Las Vegas is a convenient place to stay and has excellent reviews from guests, with the general consensus being that it’s not just good because it’s cheap, but that it is actually good. In fact, it’s won many awards including 2009 Best Downtown Hotel from the Las Vegas Review.
Like many hotels in Las Vegas, the El Cortez Hotel clearly hopes that you’ll lose a lot more money than the £14 you’re playing for a double room, with plenty of gambling tables and slot machines within the hotel helping to fund their US$25million renovation project.
So it’s clear that you really can travel the world on a shoestring, with plenty of hotels for under a tenner available if you look hard enough, and what’s more, they’re not all smelly hostels in dubious parts of the world, but genuinely decent and in some cases really good places to stay.
Obviously, room rates vary depending on what you book and when you book, but Hotels Fairy’s hotel price comparison search tool is always here to help you find the best rates on hotels for your travels, so do check at the time of booking.
Whether you stay at any of the hotels listed above, or choose to stay at any other cheap hotel around the world, it’s always a good idea to look at other guests reviews to find out if it is a genuine bargain or if there is some less attractive reason why it’s cheap.
If you found any other cheap hotels that are unbelievable value or if you’ve been caught out by a budget nightmare then please do share your experiences in the comments below.
Yes please. Please review our website and write a review on our blog. Our Website is http://hotels-fairy.com & the anchor text is ‘hotel price comparison’.

Before CALABRESI and CABRANES, Circuit Judges, and PRESKA, [*] District Judge.
Appellant Hallwood Realty Partners, L.P. ("Hallwood") brought this action asserting a violation of § 13(d) of the Securities and Exchange Act, 15 U.S.C. § 78m(d). Specifically, Hallwood alleged that the defendants formed a group to purchase and amass Hallwood units for the purpose of effecting a take-over of Hallwood and substantially altering its business and operations, without disclosing their group, its activities, or its intentions in public filings, as required under § 13(d). Hallwood sought (i) various forms of injunctive relief; (ii) a declaratory judgment that the defendants, by forming a § 13(d) group, had become an "Acquiring Person" under the terms of Hallwood's "poison pill"; 1 and (iii) an award of monetary damages. Hallwood also requested a jury trial.
The district court struck Hallwood's demand for a jury trial after holding that § 13(d) provides no cause of action for money damages and that Hallwood was not entitled to a jury trial on its injunctive and declaratory claims. Following a bench trial, the district court dismissed these equitable claims because it concluded that Hallwood had not proved the existence of a group of investors under § 13(d).
Hallwood appeals both decisions, arguing (1) that the district court improperly rejected circumstantial evidence in determining whether a § 13(d) group existed, and (2) that the court erred in denying Hallwood's jury demand. We affirm the judgment and order of the district court.
Hallwood is a limited partnership that acquires, owns, and operates commercial real estate. Hallwood units are traded on the American Stock Exchange. The various defendants in this case 2 were purchasers of Hallwood units.
The defendants began acquiring Hallwood units in the early to mid 1990s. Each individual defendant claims to have made an independent decision to purchase units, based on due diligence and a common understanding among knowledgeable investors that Hallwood units were undervalued.
Defendants Gotham Partners, L.P., Gotham Partners III, L.P., and Gotham Holdings II, L.L.C. (collectively, "Gotham") started buying Hallwood units in 1994. In December 1995, Gotham filed a Schedule 13D 3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") in which it stated that it had acquired 5.05% of the outstanding Hallwood units "for investment purposes." It continued purchasing units (and updating its Schedule 13D) over the following ten months, amassing 14.82% of the units by October 1996. In June 1997, Gotham amended its filing to say that it was seeking to remove Hallwood's general partner. Soon after, Gotham sued Hallwood and certain of its affiliates, officers, and directors in the Delaware Chancery Court, alleging, inter alia, breaches of fiduciary duty and of Hallwood's partnership agreement.
Defendant Interstate began buying Hallwood units in mid 1995. In November 1998, Interstate filed a Schedule 13D disclosing that it had acquired 5.7% of the outstanding Hallwood units. Interstate filed amendments to its Schedule 13D on March 25, 1999 (7.0%), August 30, 1999 (8.0%), and July 28, 2000 (9.0%). At no time did it disclose any plan to act in concert with other unitholders to change or influence the control of Hallwood.
Defendant PMG started acquiring Hallwood units in 1992. By January 2000, PMG had amended its Schedule 13G 4 to disclose an aggregate holding of 6.5%. PMG consistently reported that it acquired these units "in the ordinary course of business and ... not ... for the purpose of ... changing or influencing the control of the issuer ... and ... not ... in connection with or as a participant in any transaction having such purpose or effect." Defendant EFO allegedly bought at least 2% of Hallwood's units. EFO filed no 13D or 13G schedules.
At trial, Hallwood put forward direct and circumstantial evidence supporting its allegations. It provided evidence of meetings and other communications among the defendants beginning in 1994-95 and continuing through 2000, as well as evidence that Hallwood was discussed in these communications. It demonstrated that the defendants each had purchased Hallwood units during the relevant period, and it emphasized in particular a "burst of purchases" by Gotham and Interstate starting in the same week. Hallwood submitted a magazine article that described similar tactics used by Gotham to take over another company.
Hallwood also had hired a private investigator who, disguised as a potential investor, had met with certain defendants and was allegedly told by them of a coordinated plan to gain control of Hallwood. Specifically, the investigator testified that Dennis Reiland, a representative of PMG, conveyed to him the existence of a Gotham-led group designed to take over Hallwood. The investigator submitted an audiotape of a conversation he had with Christopher Mahowald, a representative of EFO, and a copy of EFO'S "Investment Recommendation" with respect to Hallwood, which Mahowald had given him. The "Investment Recommendation," Hallwood argued, could be read to imply that EFO was part of a Gotham-led attempt (involving the Delaware litigation mentioned above), to take over Hallwood and to "realize value" (i.e., to liquidate, sell, or recapitalize the company). According to Hallwood, the recommendation could also be taken to indicate the involvement of both Interstate and Roth in the plan.
These allegations were contested at trial by the defendants. On February 23, 2001, the district court rendered an oral decision, concluding that Hallwood had failed to prove that a group, as contemplated by § 13(d), existed, and entering judgment, dismissing the plaintiff's claims.
Hallwood first argues that the district court refused to credit circumstantial evidence in its determination that Hallwood had not proved the existence of a group for purposes of § 13(d). Hallwood contends that this was a legal error subject to de novo review. | 2019-04-19T03:11:39 | https://case-law.vlex.com/vid/286-f-3d-613-594921310 |

If your winter boots are lined with a waterproof material, check to make sure they're waterproof on the surface, too. Weblog Refinery29 notes that even if the liner is waterproof, water can become trapped between the liner and the outer material. This can cause water spots to mark your boots.
You can quickly check your boots by wetting them and making sure the droplets slide right off. If they aren't, you can easily waterproof them with beeswax or Rust-oleum, depending on the material. For more tips on winterizing your boots, check out the full post linked below. | 2019-04-22T02:47:39 | https://lifehacker.com/why-you-should-waterproof-your-boots-even-if-they-say-1671105795 |
This photo shows a three colour composite of the well-known Crab Nebula (also known as Messier 1), as observed with the FORS2 instrument in imaging mode in the morning of November 10, 1999. It is the remnant of a supernova explosion at a distance of about 6,000 light-years, observed almost 1,000 years ago, in the year 1054. It contains a neutron star near its center that spins 30 times per second around its axis (see below).
In this picture, the green light is predominantly produced by hydrogen emission from material ejected by the star that exploded. The blue light is predominantly emitted by very high-energy ("relativistic") electrons that spiral in a large-scale magnetic field (so-called synchrotron emission). It is believed that these electrons are continuously accelerated and ejected by the rapidly spinning neutron star at the centre of the nebula and which is the remnant core of the exploded star. This pulsar has been identified with the lower/right of the two close stars near the geometric center of the nebula, immediately left of the small arc-like feature, best seen in ESO Press Photo eso9948. Technical information: ESO Press Photo eso9948 is based on a composite of three images taken through three different optical filters: B (429 nm; FWHM 88 nm; 5 min; here rendered as blue), R (657 nm; FWHM 150 nm; 1 min; green) and S II (673 nm; FWHM 6 nm; 5 min; red) during periods of 0.65 arcsec (R, S II) and 0.80 (B) seeing, respectively. The field shown measures 6.8 x 6.8 arcminutes and the images were recorded in frames of 2048 x 2048 pixels, each measuring 0.2 arcseconds. North is up; East is left. | 2019-04-21T16:57:12 | http://earthspacecircle.blogspot.com/2014/02/the-crab-nebula-in-taurus.html |
YAMAHA exhaust valve servo eliminator aka "YAM.EE" is a digital solid-state electronic device that is designed and manufactured 100% right here in the US of A by vizi-tec! This product comes with a factory warranty of 10 years! This device allows for the replacement of the servo actuator assembly as factory installed on some Yamaha motorcycles as part of the exhaust system integrated with the ECU (Electronic Control Unit). The unit allows you to get rid of the servo setup giving your bike a cleaner look, leaving more room under the seat, saving weight, improve performance and sound. It also allows removal of the servo cables to the exhaust butterfly valve that have been known to fail or cause problems. A lot cheaper than having it serviced by the dealer or constantly replacing the mechanical motor assembly!
WORKS ON ALL YAMAHA WITH FACTORY EXHAUST VALVE INSTALLED!
3. Use the provided tie wraps or optional double-sided tape/velco to secure the YAM.EE.
4. Plug the YAM.EE into the factory wiring harness using the stock connector.
5. Turn on your ignition and verify your Check Engine Light (FI) message is off. Done!
Unlike the other less robust plastic and analog products out there, the YAM.EE is controlled by a micro-processor that guarantees a constant servo position regardless of voltage fluctuation. The physical device is machined CNC from a single block and epoxied using automotive/marine grade products which makes this the best quality servo eliminator you can get for your Yamaha. 100% water/grease/dirt proof. And because of this we offer a 10 year warranty!
We try to be very competitive and do regulate our prices to reflect the market. And we'll pass on any savings in terms of reductions in our production cost. If you see that our prices have dropped within 30 days of your purchase, we'll match it.
Good work, no more 17 and 18 codes in the ECU. Much better than others that only have a resistance and condensor that not work properly. | 2019-04-22T08:35:54 | http://www.vizi-tec.com/yam-ee/ |

Whenever Taipei is mentioned, many immediately think of the iconic Taipei 101, bustling night markets and mouth-watering small bites. With various hot spots to visit, food to eat and activities to undertake, here is our Taipei fun guide.
Lungshan Temple is located in the district Manka of Taipei. Founded in 1738 and dedicated to the Buddhist Goddess of Mercy (Kuan-in in Chinese, or Avalokitesvara in Sanskrit), Lungshan Temple is a masterpiece of traditional Chinese architecture and a well-established Buddhist temple. The Taiwanese government designated it a historical site on 19 August, 1985. Within walking distance from the temple is the well-known Snake Alley located on Huaxi Street & Mengjia Night Market. This place is a night market with an interesting history and a unique character. In the early years before becoming a tourist destination, it was a red light district where gangsters hung out.
Ximending abounds with youthful energy and rightly so. It has been called the “Shibuya of Taipei” and is youngsters’ territory. Occupying a few blocks along Chunghwa Road, the area is filled with shops, cafes, restaurants and food stalls. Ximending features the country’s first and largest pedestrian area and is a bustling, energetic place. Before movie theatres exploded all over Taipei, people used to go to the main “theatre street” in Ximending to watch the latest films or shows. The Red Theatre (www.redhouse.org.tw) is one of the oldest in the country and now hosts cultural art events and live performances. On the weekends, you’ll find college students selling handmade jewellery and other handcraft items at the many stalls occupying the theatre plaza.
You cannot leave the island without trying a bowl of thick soupy vermicelli noodles with oysters and/or braised pork intestines, topped with black vinegar, minced garlic and coriander. This classic Taiwanese dish can be found in night markets all over the country, but I highly recommend Ay-chung (MRT Ximen Station Exit 6), which is located in Ximending. The store is impossible to miss, since you’ll see a lot of people queuing outside. Tables and seats are not offered here so be prepared to stand and slurp.
One of Taipei’s best feature is the ease of getting around the city and offers a variety of transport modes including its highly praised MRT system. However, accessibility really shoots up at ground level with YouBike which is officially Taipei’s Bike Sharing System. It is made up of a large network of bicycle rental kiosks in Taipei City. There are now over 160 YouBike posts throughout the city. You can rent a bike from place A and return it at place B. To rent a one, simply buy and top-up an EasyCard from any convenience store, such as 7-Eleven or FamilyMart, and register on the official YouBike website (www.youbike.com.tw). The website is helpful because it also tells you where all the YouBikes are parked, whether there are still YouBikes available or free parking space. Upon leaving the country, just return the card at any MRT station to get back what is still left in the card.
Slurp A Bowl Of Beef Noodle Soup.
You’ve not been to Taipei if you leave the island without having slurped a bowl of beef noodle soup! Taiwan’s version of the beef noodles soup is made with cubed braised beef and sour vegetables in clear beef broth. The trick to locating a good, authentic bowl is to search for a restaurant that doesn’t look like much. Try Yong-kang Beef Noodle (MRT Dongmen Station Exit 4), which is only a 10-minute walk away from the Memorial Hall. I would suggest going during non-meal periods to avoid having to queue for too long. Stroll around the streets; Yong-kang street itself is a lane packed with foodie attractions.
Moving towards the commonly known “east area”, the busy region off Zhongxiao East Road, the many SOGO Department stores are attention-grabbers, while numerous self-owned boutique shops occupy the lanes and alleys creating a minor buzz as well. In this neighbourhood, you’ll also be welcomed to all sorts of restaurants, cafes and diners. Taiwan’s pearl milk teas are must-haves, but it is difficult to find freshly made pearls; a large batch for a day tends to be made in the morning. Ten Ren Tea (www.tenren.com.tw) (MRT Zhongxiao Fuxing Station Exit 8), located near the intersection of Dun Hua South Road and Zhongxiao East Road, remains one of the city’s most adored tea escapes despite its higher price.
Taiwanese style breakfast is a must-have without a doubt. The typical breakfast combo people is a deep-fried strip of dough known as “youtiao” with rice congee, a baked sesame flatbread with rice milk, or an egg pancake with soy milk. You can easily find breakfast vendors in the morning all over the city, but there are also many in town that serve breakfast 24 hours a day. Chiang Family’s (MRT Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall Station Exit 3) offers a large range of quality tasty items on their menu.
Traditional shaved ice with three or four choices of toppings is one of the most well-liked, mainstream desserts in Taiwan. The choices of toppings would usually include the infamous pearls, of course, red and green beans, peanuts, taro balls, sweet potato, jelly and local fruits. Many stores featuring traditional shaved ice have been affected by newcomers; however, some have survived unscathed. East District Pearls (www.efy.com.tw) (MRT Zhongxiao Dunhua Station Exit 3) is one of these.
New architectural additions like Taipei 101 (www.taipei-101.com.tw) (MRT Taipei 101 World Trade Centre Station), have placed the city firmly in the international spotlight. Designed like a bamboo, the building represents growth – the bamboo – and double prosperity – the two number eights. Go up to the observatory on the 89th floor from the fifth floor via the world’s fastest elevator; takes only 38 seconds. You’ll be vowed by a 360-degree view of the entire city.
There are many options when it comes to accommodations. Low costs hostels and youth camps are available all year round. For a more luxurious holiday, there are many international class hotels that will cater to every need. Whatever your budget, check out http://www.travelmatrixz.com for the best deals in hotels accommodation. | 2019-04-18T21:23:30 | https://ladiesclub.sg/10-must-do-things-in-taipei-city-taiwan/ |

Sept. 24 Update: Apple's released the first version of macOS Mojave! Here's our review and guide to downloading the major update.
The final version of macOS Mojave isn't even out yet -- it's still just a public beta -- but we've found plenty of new tricks during our short time with the new version of Apple's desktop and laptop operating system.
For example, Dark Mode and the Dynamic Desktops may look cool, but Continuity Camera is a major time-saver. Also, Safari can now show favicons in tabs, provided you enable that feature. Here are the major new macOS Mojave features you need to know about. | 2019-04-20T00:11:47 | https://www.laptopmag.com/articles/how-to-use-macos-mojave |

Education is critically important in a child’s development. For children around the world, getting an education is a gateway to a better life and future. In a school setting, children are also provided safety, psychosocial protection, and a sense of normalcy by engaging in recreational activities. However, the opportunity to get an education is not available to all.
In Lebanon children with disabilities are often denied an education. The issue of denying children with disabilities an education has caught the attention of the international community. The right to an education is universal as international organizations such as Human Rights Watch (HRW), United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund (UNICEF), and the World Health Organization (WHO), work to protect this human right.
Parents of children with disabilities remaining vocal about the discrimination their children experience is a positive step forward. International exposure to Lebanon’s public education system also raises awareness and strives to protect the right to education by government adhering to laws already in place. | 2019-04-18T14:17:29 | https://internationalchildwelfarenews.com/education/ |

If you’ve got been quite considerably anyplace on the world wide web in the final pair of weeks, you are going to have no doubt arrive throughout #10YearChallenge on social media.
If not, the premise is basic – put up a 2009 photo of oneself next to a current just one, to display how substantially you’ve transformed.
Hundreds of thousands have taken aspect, but some have criticised it for staying – among the other points – narcissistic, ageist and in some cases a little bit sexist.
In this tweet, footballer Mesut Ozil compares what appears to be a massive iceberg on the remaining, and a melted iceberg on the ideal.
Though the meme is just not solely precise – the image on the still left, of the Getz Ice Shelf in Antarctica, was taken in November 2016 rather than in 2008 – you can find no denying that shrinking ice sheets go on to be a key situation.
In accordance to Nasa, Antarctica is dropping about 127 gigatonnes of ice mass every yr, even though Greenland loses 286 gigatonnes per year.
This, they say, is mainly down to mounting world wide temperatures getting absorbed by oceans. The planet’s ordinary floor temperature has risen by about .9C because the late 19th century – and about a 3rd of that has took place in the final 10 years.
Environmental activist teams are also making use of the hashtag to highlight this concern.
This put up from Greenpeace bends the obstacle a bit, by comparing archival pics from 1928 with images taken by Swedish photographer Christian Aslund in 2002.
And Martin Kobler, the German Ambassador to Pakistan, tweeted out an post about weather alter in the Pakistani region of Balochistan.
According to the most up-to-date World-wide Local climate Possibility Index, Pakistan has been the eighth most-influenced by local weather alter over the previous two many years.
The calendar year 2018 was when the entire world genuinely woke up to the truth of plastic pollution as properly as local weather change.
Experts work out that about 10m tonnes of plastic waste finish up in the oceans each individual 12 months – and that some of that can acquire hundreds of decades to biodegrade.
So some campaigners are turning the #10YearChallenge on its head to clearly show that, even though we may possibly have adjusted a great deal in the final decade, the plastic we throw absent continues to be nearly exactly the identical.
On seventeen December, 2010, a Tunisian avenue seller identified as Mohamed Bouazizi refused to pay out a bribe to neighborhood officers, so experienced his fruit and vegetable cart confiscated as a outcome. Confronted with an unforgiving bureaucratic process, he established himself on fireplace.
This act, a lot less than ten a long time back, was the catalyst for what was later on identified as the Arab Spring – a wave of protests throughout the Middle East and North Africa that, in some conditions, led to bloody civil wars and a refugee disaster that observed a file variety of people today compelled from their homes.
To replicate on this, then-and-now photos of conflicts in Syria, Libya and Iraq have been posted on Twitter – with thriving street scenes contrasted with stark pictures of crumbling properties.
People are also submitting images of Yemen, exactly where a a few-12 months civil war has led to the world’s worst humanitarian crisis right now.
Individuals are also sharing some of the points that surface to have improved more than the final ten years.
According to statistics from the Globe Bank and the UN, serious poverty is at present at its least expensive in general level in recorded background, boy or girl mortality and youth illiteracy are both down, and international typical lifestyle expectancy has amplified.
But, unfortunately, this won’t display the complete picture.
Although extreme poverty is at its most affordable stage globally, it is even now getting promptly worse in Sub-Saharan Africa – the place the common extraordinary poverty amount is now about forty one%.
And whilst youth literacy has greater overall, it is really still lowest in fewer produced nations – and it impacts youthful females extra than men. According to the most the latest info, 59% of all illiterate youth are girls.
Whilst environmental injury is continue to extremely considerably an problem, there is no doubting that recognition of it has elevated, major several folks and nations around the world to check out and swap to sustainable sources of electricity.
The Global Electricity Agency suggests that renewables surged in 2016, many thanks in no compact portion to a boom in photo voltaic panel set up in China. | 2019-04-20T21:03:19 | http://eastofthesun-asia.com/10-year-challenge-how-the-world-has-changed-in-a-decade-bbc-news/ |
UK PM Theresa May as rebuked speculative tweets of US President Trump on the latest London train blast that left at least 22 people injured.
May said that speculations aren’t helpful for anybody. “I never think it’s helpful for anybody to speculate on what is an ongoing investigation,” she said, speaking after an emergency cabinet meeting.
In the latest incident, a bomb detonated on a packed London Underground train on Friday, setting off a “wall of fire” that burned commuters in Britain’s fifth terror attack in six months. Witnesses saw passengers with facial burns and hair coming off at the Parsons Green station in west London after the explosion on the train during the morning rush hour.
“At 8:20 this morning at Parsons Green station there was an explosion on a Tube train. We now assess that this was a detonation of an improvised explosive device,” police counter-terror chief Mark Rowley said. He added that most of the injuries were due to “flash burns”, while others were wounded by the stampede as passengers ran out of the station in panic.
London Mayor Sadiq Khan said a “manhunt” was underway.
US President Donald Trump said that “loser terrorists” were behind the attack, adding that they were already “in the sights” of British police.
London’s Metropolitan Police dismissed the tweet as “unhelpful speculation”, and Trump was also rebuked by Prime Minister Theresa May.
May also said the device was “clearly intended to cause significant harm,” condemning it as a “cowardly attack”. | 2019-04-24T00:42:28 | https://xnewspress.com/news/2017/09/15/uk-pm-asks-donald-trump-to-refrain-from-speculations-as-22-injured-in-london-train-blast.html |

“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you.” (James 4:7).
Submission is a foreign principle to most people. We have been poked and prodded so much through injustice, inequality, disenfranchisement, etc., and have had to fight for our rights for so long, some of us cannot even fathom the concept. And worse, there are many who are just naturally proud. Yet, this pride and fight have become impediments to spiritual growth. Human beings naturally believe that we know so much more than we actually do. We often believe we have more control of our lives than we do. This is why so many believe they can stop drinking whenever they want to and quickly realize that the habit is stronger than their will to quit without intervention. This is why some people believe they can have just one more secret liaison with that person other than their spouse, only to realize that there are invisible handcuffs and leg irons restricting their ability to return home to the ones they vowed to love and cherish ‘til death.
The blessing of submission in the context of today’s devotional thought, is the One to whom we have the privilege to submit. As we said earlier this week, Jesus overcame the devil on his own turf, not to mention that there was a heavenly war that the devil lost too. We also mentioned that the Lord stands ready to give us new hearts and right spirits. Therefore, when we submit ourselves to the Lord in humility, we are consenting for Him to pervade all areas of our lives and thoughts. We are consenting to yield our proud, self-deceptive thoughts of being in control, to the One who has already conquered the devil in every way. It is when we surrender to Jesus that we receive the infusion of the Spirit into our lives, who then gives us the power to resist the devil. With the Spirit in control of our lives, we are armored from head-to-toe to resist the wiles of the devil (Ephesians 6:13-17).
So the key to our victory is surrendering our thoughts, will, actions, and intentions to Jesus who has defeated the devil. It is in this submission that we may have His victory applied to and superimposed upon our lives for spiritual insulation until Jesus returns. | 2019-04-19T10:16:57 | https://www.messagemagazine.com/grow-your-faith/daily-devotional/close-god-free-satan/?shared=email&msg=fail |
