On Sunday, October 30th, the first Regional Rhythmic Gymnastics Strength Screening took place in Los Angeles. With the help of National Team coach Tatyana Itkina of California Rhythms, a group of physical therapist and athletic trainers, lead by Kristen Traina, performed the rhythmic gymnastics strength and flexibility screen on 24 Region 1 gymnasts.\nThe screen assessed flexibility, strength and muscular endurance with the goal of identifying and addressing weaknesses to improve performance and prevent injury. Following the screen, the gymnasts were given exercises tailored to their performance on the tests. In addition to the screen, local physicians were present to answer questions and discuss injury history. Parents and gymnasts were excited to participate in the screen and make connections with local medical professionals specializing in dance medicine.\nWe are hopeful that we will be able to conduct the screen on an annual basis to show progress and help the gymnasts as they continue to excel. Kristen Traina works closely with the U.S. Rhythmic National Team in preparation for major international competition, including the Pacific Rim Championships, World Championships and Olympic Games. Kristen works closely with Elizabeth Darling, a member of the USA Gymnastics Medical Task Force, on developing, implementing, and maintaining treatment and further strength, fitness and injury prevention programming for the Rhythmic Program.
Two organizations offer safety ratings for vehicles in the United States. They are the NTSHA and the IIHS. Each organization uses its own rating system and tests to perform their independent assessment. The best performing vehicles will score well in both rating systems.\nThe NTSHA rating system uses stars to designate the crashworthiness of a vehicle. It goes from one star to five stars, with more stars being better. The NTSHA puts each vehicle through three crash tests to test the front and both sides. They also use a formula to determine the vehicle's rollover risk.\nThe IIHS provides their rating in four categories: Poor, Marginal, Acceptable, and Good. Good is the best rating. The IIHS puts each vehicle through five crash tests to determine the vehicle's rating. If you are looking for a vehicle with a top safety rating, come by Dyer Mazda in Vero Beach, FL to test drive one of them for yourself.

Unlike viral loops, which are actions users take in the normal course of using a product to invite new members, viral oops rely on the user ‘effing-up.\nA classic example of a viral loop can be found in a product like Paypal. If one user wants to send cash to another, the receiver generally opens a Paypal account to redeem the funds. Conceivably, when the new user wants to send money themselves, they’ll usher-in more new members and the loop continues.\nHowever, in the case of a viral oops, the user doesn’t realize what they’ve just done. A viral oops isn’t necessarily a deception by the company — in the way sending messages without the user’s permission might be — rather, it is more of a digital sleight of hand. Like a magic trick, when retracing the steps to figure out what just happened, it’s obvious how the viral oops occurred and the user most often blames themselves rather than the company for allowing the misstep.\nIn the case of Kim Kardashian: Hollywood, the game begins innocently enough. The Kim Kardashian game is a classic role-playing game where players take the part of an up and coming Hollywood celebrity determined to climb the ranks up to “A-List” status. To get there, players must pass through lower levels of stardom on the E, D, C, and B-Lists. Moving through these levels requires completing tasks like posing for magazines, going on dates, and as best as I can tell, shoplifting for Kim Kardashian.\nFinishing a task requires repetitive thumb tapping that uses-up energy points. Energy is replenished by waiting for a period of time or by paying real dollars to get back into the game. This is how the millions are made, but that’s not the sneaky part.\nHere’s how the viral oops works: The Kim Kardashian game features a “feed update,” which pops-up occasionally to provide news and gossip like a Twitter account. Fictitious characters in the game like Paris Hilton lookalike @WillowPape update their feeds with hashtag-filled 140-character bursts — just like on Twitter. A constant count of “fans” hovers on screen, further giving the impression that the game has it’s own version of Twitter.\nWhen the game asked me to follow a news reporter named Ray Powers by his handle @StarNews_Ray, doing so felt like part of game play. Naturally, I assumed that the Twitter in the game isn’t the real-world Twitter. How could it be?\nIn the screen shot below my avatar reads tweets between @WillowPape and @StarNews_Ray, both fictitious characters in the game, right? Not exactly.\nUnbeknownst to me, when I followed @StarNews_Ray in the game, my real world Twitter account also began following @StarNews_Ray and apparently I’m not the only one. The real-world Twitter account of fake @StarNews_Ray has racked-up over 400,000 followers.\nNow the trap was set for the viral oops. During my first session of play, the app offered points for sharing news on (what I assumed was) in-game Twitter. However, what I thought was fake Twitter turned out to be real Twitter and the tweet was sent to thousands of my followers’ streams.\nThe game automatically posted, “I’m now an E-list celebrity in Kim Kardashian: Hollywood. Come join me and become famous too by playing on iPhone!” and included a link to download the app.\nA search on Twitter revealed multiple similar tweets posted every minute. It is unclear how many of these tweets were sent by people unaware of what was happening but in the month of July over 396,000 similar auto-populated tweets were sent. One of those tweets which was certainly not intentional was from the Environmental Protection Agency’s Office of Water, which quickly deleting the post after realizing the error.\nDe Masi was quick to point out that, “this is the best reviewed game in the app store” and that the company has not heard significant complaints from players. He credited Kardashian’s celebrity and massive social media following for the game’s popularity.\nGlu Mobile insists there is no intent to deceive but De Masi would not comment on what percentage of installs came from Twitter. De Masi believes the game is growing through word of mouth — people just want to tell others about it.\nRegardless of whether the tactic is something the company is doing consciously or not, it appears to be benefiting from all the tweeting. De Masi said, “Glu as a company doesn’t spend as much money as competitors [on user acquisition] … We spend 15% whereas our competitors spend 40%.” As is often the case with the viral oops, I wasn’t sure if even the game maker wasn’t fooled into thinking all that tweeting was authentic.\nClearly, the 2.8 billion minutes players have spent in the Kim Kardashian game is a testament to its appeal. However, how much of the game’s growth is a result of real player endorsements versus a technological sleight of hand called the viral oops, is still an open question.
Spousal Maintenance for an estranged Defacto Partner!\nRecent changes in the Family Law Act enable a defacto partner to successfully claim maintenance from their partner. In Vine & Carey The Court found the parties had lived in a defacto relationship for more than two years and as the relationship had broken down after the new legislation took effect from 1 March 2009 the female partner could claim maintenance from her now estranged former male partner.\nThe male earnt a salary of $789 per week & had investment income of $641 per week. he alleged his expenses were $2220 per week. His assets were $2,350,000. The Court Ordered he pay $500 per week maintenance to his former partner. The claim for property settlement is continuing.\nThis is one of the first cases under the Family Law Amendments (Defacto Matters & Other Measures) Act where a Court has ordered maintenance.\nYou can avoid this outcome by entering into a Binding Financial Agreement with your partner, but you will need a lawyer!

This article is designed to walk you through VMware VM backup best practices using the Virtual Dashboard available within NovaBACKUP software. Using the native “Change Block Tracking” (CBT) feature available through VMware, NovaBACKUP will allow you to do daily Differential or Incremental backups of VMware-based virtual machines. This technology detects what blocks of data are required to be backed up based on what changes were made to the virtual machine, that way you do not have to do a “Full” backup each time it executes.\nIt’s important to note, that if backup jobs are not created properly within the NovaBACKUP Virtual Dashboard for VMware VM backups, the backup retention function may not work properly. As a result, if you tried to setup VMware VM-based Differential or Incremental backup jobs using the NovaBACKUP Virtual Dashboard (NVD) in the past, and discovered that you were unable to setup your retention jobs, this article will help you get your retention working properly for these backups so that your destination storage device for your VMware VM backups do not fill up and leave you without adequate storage space.\nThis article assumes that you are starting from scratch in the NovaBACKUP Virtual Dashboard (NVD) as a new user and do not have anything set up currently. If you already have configuration data stored in the Virtual Dashboard, such as NVD backup jobs and Hypervisor settings, go ahead and do the following to remove that configured data to start from scratch as far as NVD configuration are concerned.\nStep A. Exit out of the Virtual Dashboard and NovaBACKUP application if it is running currently.\nStep B. Delete the NVD configuration data file: “C:\ProgramData\NovaStor\NovaStor NovaBACKUP\ClientStorage.xml”.\nStep C. Load NovaBACKUP software and launch the Virtual Dashboard function from the Home screen and the Virtual Dashboard will act as though it is the first time you have ever executed it to start from scratch for these instructions to pertain to you.\nYou will be prompted to add your VMware Hypervisor into the Virtual Dashboard. You will then see a list of all VM’s on that vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi/vSphere Server). Select all of the VM’s you would like to create VM backup jobs for. In this case you will need to create two backup jobs for each Virtual Machine, one as a Full Backup and one as either a Differential or Incremental Backup.\nIn the Virtual Dashboard area select the VMware virtual machine that you would like to setup your first backup job on. This first backup job that you create will be a “Full” backup. This is the backup job that you intend to utilize most likely on a weekly, bi-weekly or monthly basis to perform a full backup of the entire VM. Select the VM as one of your VM’s to back up by clicking on the name of the virtual machine. You will be taken to a screen which has a “Backup” button at the top and a “Replication” button to the right of that, this is your backup configuration screen for this one VMware VM that you selected.\nAt the bottom of this screen, click on the “Enables CBT” button, which stands for “Change Block Tracking.” You will need to have CBT Enabled to move forward. After clicking the button you should see the slider at the bottom of the screen showing that CBT is Enabled.\nNow just click “Backup” at the top of the screen to create your first backup job. The first backup job you create will need to be a “Full Backup.” To setup a “Full Backup” job just specify the backup job type as “Full”. You will now set the “Destination” storage location for where this Full backup will be stored. It is important that you remember that path because we will re-use this exact same setting in Step 4. Below the Destination field you will see a choice for Retention. Turn on Retention, as this will allow you to specify how many “Generations” (which is a count) of these “Full” backups to keep in place on your destination storage device before the oldest iterations are deleted automatically, in order to reclaim disk storage space.\nIn the Virtual Dashboard, select the same VMware virtual machine as previously used and create a second backup job. This time we will be creating either a “Differential” backup or an “Incremental” backup. This is the backup job you would most likely utilize on a daily basis to only backup the changed or newly added files inside of this one VM.\nClick the “Backup” button at the top of the screen and then fill in the details for this job. Be sure to specify either “Differential” or “Incremental” for the backup type. Set the “Destination” field, which is the folder path for where this Differential or Incremental backup will be stored in to the same exact Destination folder as the “Full Backup” job utilized when you were in Step 3. After setting the Destination field you will see the choice for enabling Retention, DO NOT enable the Retention feature. The reason that we are not enabling Retention here is because it will not work here (keep reading as this is handle automatically for you based on your retention settings in step 3). You can then set up how this job is to be scheduled on the last screen of the “Backup” job creation, most people want this type of job to be executed daily.\nNOTE: Keep in mind that only one backup job can run at a time in NovaBACKUP and in the Virtual Dashboard so be careful with your scheduling. If setup properly your Differential or Incremental job should be quite a bit faster than a Full backup. The log will show how long each type of job took so that you know how to best set up the scheduling for VM backup jobs.\nIn the Virtual Dashboard, select the same VMware VM again and then select the “Full Backup” job that you created in Step 1-3 of this guide. Tell this “Full Backup” job to run right now by clicking on the “Run Now” icon at the top of the screen. Allow this “Full Backup” job to complete. You will get a completion status in the main logs area of NovaBACKUP as well as in the Virtual Dashboard by looking at that VMware VM’s actively running jobs screen. NOTE: This “Full Backup” job is 100% required to complete successfully in order to continue to the next step.\nIn the Virtual Dashboard, select the “Differential” or “Incremental” backup job that you created in Step 4 and click “Run Now” to start and complete that job. Allow the Differential or Incremental job that you created to complete.\nThe next time that your “Full Backup” job executes and completes, either by the scheduled time or when you run it manually with the “Run Now” function it will complete a new “Full Backup”, then delete all stored Differential or Incremental backups in one action (this is why a separate retention is not needed for this type of backups), and then deletes the oldest Full backup that existed based on the Generation (Count) that you specified in the “Full Backup” job’s “Retention” setting. The Retention setting was specified in Step 3 of this guide.\nIf you would like to test NovaBACKUP to backup your VMware virtual machines, download NovaBACKUP Business Essentials now.

All over America, at this very moment, people are peeling, chopping, roasting and baking, busily preparing traditional Thanksgiving meals. But one person in Brooklyn is seeking an alternative to expending all that time, effort and money via a Freecycle Thanksgiving.\nFreecycle, if you are not familiar with it, is a simple, rather noble concept: those who have things they can’t use give them freely, as gifts, to those who need them. The object is to reduce waste, save valuable resources and ease the burden on landfills.\nFreecycle members contact each other online using message boards operated by the Freecycle Network. While most members post messages describing the items they want to give away, a few request items they want but don’t have.\nThis “wanted” listing, posted the evening before Thanksgiving, struck me as particularly ambitious and audacious, and I can’t help wondering what type of response it will generate.\nIn any case, however you choose to celebrate the day, I wish you a happy Thanksgiving.\nToday, as I emerged from the Clark Street subway station onto Henry Street, my eye was drawn to a bright spot of color beyond the doors. Moving closer, I saw that the vibrant hues were actually candles and bouquets placed on the sidewalk. The location, just outside a college dormitory, is a stop for a private bus that shuttles students from their Brooklyn residence to Manhattan.\nFeeling dread, I approached the man working in the coffee stand adjacent to the spot and asked whether he knew anything about the flowers. Sadly, he told me that early yesterday morning a student had committed suicide; he’d leapt from an eighth-floor window. “My boss,” the man said, “was here when it happened. He didn’t see the boy fall, but he heard him hit the sidewalk.” He pointed out that the pole of the bus stop was covered with handwritten notes carefully taped to the steel.\nAs we spoke, a young woman came out of the building and knelt at the makeshift memorial, arranging a box of sweets among the flowers. The boy who fell, she said, was a close friend, only 19 years old. He jumped to the cold, dark street at 2:15 a.m.\nI later read more about the tragic death in the newspaper, including the name of the young man who died, Michael Simmons. He was a talented actor who had recently arrived from Tempe, Arizona to study at the New York Conservatory for Dramatic Arts. My heart goes out to his friends and family.\nYou are currently browsing the Blather From Brooklyn blog archives for November, 2010.

WaterTower Music hat weitere Informationen wie die Trackliste, das Cover und Veröffentlichungsdatum der Special Edition zum Soundtrack von Der Hobbit: Eine Unerwartete Reise The Hobbit: An unexpected Journey veröffentlicht. Wie schon bei der Herr der Ringe Trilogie hat der dreifache Oscargewinner Howard Shore einen großen Anteil an der Filmmusik. Für die Filmmusik zu Die Gefährten (Der Herr der Ringe) erhielt Shore seinen ersten Oscar und einen Grammy. Im Jahr 2004 kamen dann ein Grammy, zwei Golden Globes und zwei Oscars hinzu. 2005 erhielt er erneut zwei Grammys, dieses Mal für die Filmmusik zum dritten Teil der Trilogie. Daher ist auch bei dem OST von Der Hobbit: Eine Unerwartete Reise ein musikalisches Meisterwerk zu erwarten. WaterTower Music kündigt die Veröffentlichung des Soundtrack für den 11. Dezember 2012 an. Der Soundtrack wird digital und als 2-CD-Set in den handel kommen. Für echte Fans wird es ein weiteres 2-DISC Special Edition Set geben. Die Extras sind 6 exklusive Bonus-Tracks, 7 erweiterten Tracks (Extended Versions) und Deluxe Liner Notes (Begleitende Anmerkungen von Doug Adams). Beide Sets enthalten den von Neil Flinn geschriebenen und eingesungenen “Song of the Lonely Mountain”.\nWaterTower Music has announced the release of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey Original Motion Picture Soundtrack at all retailers on December 11th. The soundtrack will be available both digitally and as a 2 CD set. A Special Edition of the soundtrack featuring six exclusive bonus tracks, seven extended score cues, and deluxe liner notes will also be available December 11. The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey features original score by Academy Award® winner Howard Shore recorded at famed Abbey Road studios by the London Philharmonic Orchestra. Additionally it includes an original song entitled “Song of the Lonely Mountain,” written and performed by Neil Finn (Crowded House). The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, the first of a trilogy of films from Oscar-winning filmmaker Peter Jackson (The Lord of the Rings Trilogy), will be released in the U.S. on December 14, 2012.\nShore’s music for The Lord of the Rings Trilogy has been performed in concerts throughout the world. In 2003, Shore conducted the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra and Chorus in the world premiere of The Lord of the Rings Symphony in Wellington, New Zealand. Since then, the work has had over 140 performances by the world’s most prestigious orchestras, and has even been the subject of a book, Music of The Lord of the Rings Films.\nOne of today’s most respected, honored, and active composers and music conductors, Howard Shore previously worked with director Peter Jackson on The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, which stands as his most towering achievement to date. He won three Academy Awards for his music for those films, two for Best Original Score, and one for Best Original Song. Shore has also won numerous other honors for his film work, including four Grammys and three Golden Globe Awards.
I saw this tag going around YouTube this past month, and since people like to ask for palettes for the holiday season or treat themselves to something nice, it seemed like the perfect time to share some of my favorite palettes!\nBefore I start, I have a few things to clarify: I’ll be focusing just on gift-sized (or priced) eyeshadow palettes, and as many different palettes as I can fit in this post while still answering honestly. Some of these palettes contain blushes or other products in them, but the primary focus is on the eyeshadows. But if you’re looking for a great blush palette, check out my review of Tarte’s Holiday Blush Palette.\nPeople seem to go two ways with this answer: functionality or creativity. I think this palette covers both. It’s very small and thin, about the length and width of my hand (which is tiny), with a strong magnetic closure and a substantial mirror inside. I took out the sponge-tip applicators it came with, leaving room for a travel-sized eyeshadow brush or eye liner when I’m traveling.\nAs for creativity, I love the mix of felt and foil in the pattern, and the foiled pattern borders the mirror as well. I also really like the design, and the eyeshadows are a good size. The color selection is really varied with this one, too, unless you don’t like glitter shades. I tend to skip the glitter shades myself, but I can still use most of the palette, so that doesn’t feel like a huge loss to me.\nNo surprise here – I love this palette, everyone loves this palette. And one of the reasons why it’s so popular is that these eyeshadows are amazingly pigmented and blendable.\nThe Shady Lady palette was one of the very first eyeshadow palettes I ever bought. I was looking for something with a lot of different color options but nothing over-the-top, and this palette is it. You get nine good-sized eyeshadows, all shimmer or satin finish (except the black, which contains noticeable glitter).\nI bought this NYX palette a few months ago when they were on Hautelook, and while I haven’t used it enough to write a full review yet, I would say it’s definitely versatile. You get a good range of nudes and a couple colors, as well as two highlights, a bronzer, and four blushes. Some of the shadows don’t have great color payoff, and a few of the mid-tone shades look really similar, but overall it’s a great amount of products for the price.\nI think this was a limited-edition palette, but Stila comes out with palettes like this all the time, so it should still be relevant. This palette is once again about the size of my hand and very thin. The mirror is an OK size, but it’s smaller to make room for a little tutorial, which I don’t mind.\nYou get 6 eyeshadows, a shimmer powder, and a lip/cheek color in this palette. The eyeshadows are separated into “looks,” but they are all in the same color family, so you can mix and match depending on your preference. The shimmer would be a good highlight, but can also be used as an eyeshadow, which gives even more versatility to the palette. The lip and cheek color is a great color, but I’ve only used it a couple times, and just on my lips.\n5) Biggest Regret: I regret nothing!\nThis would have won for best packaging if it weren’t so large, because it’s so adorable. There’s a “nice” version with the same shadows that doesn’t contain the pinup girls on the inside, if that’s not your style. The names of the eyeshadows are all adjectives starting with S, which I think is cute. I really dislike when companies use puns or bad jokes in their names, but these are simple while still keeping up with the whimsy of the packaging.\nThis is a great concept for a palette, but I was hoping it would be more than just a supplement to other palettes. I’ve tried using it on its own, but the shadows fade so quickly that I don’t reach for it on its own very often. I do, however, love W.O.S. as a brow highlight, Naked 2 as a transition shade, and a blend of Naked 2 and Faint for my brows, so it has turned out to be pretty useful in the end.\nYou can see in the photo that the black shadow broke! Despite the sturdy case, it broke during traveling somehow. Luckily I use the black shadow the lease, but unluckily, it makes a mess every time I try and use it.\nIf I could only have one palette, it would be this one. I honestly thought it was over-hyped when I got it, but it quickly became a must-have for me. This would be an awesome gift for someone who’s just getting started with makeup or who loves makeup and somehow missed getting this one.\nI’m not going to tag specific people this time, so go ahead and do this post if you want to! Make sure to comment below with a link or link to this in your post so I can see it.\nThanks for reading! What are your favorite palettes? Any gift recommendations?\nIf I ever get stranded on a desert island, please give me my Naked palette lol.\nI finally gave in a few weeks ago and treated myself to my first ever “real” makeup and bought the Naked 2 palette. I’ll never go back!!\nSo glad! My sister loves that one. I have my eye on the Naked 3…you’re stuck now haha!\nI know… It was like a gateway drug. Somehow I’ve ended up with a brush set, Urban Decay foundation and Benefit mascara.\nAmen to Urban Decay being a gateway drug!\nAmen! I always recommend the Naked palettes to anyone just getting into makeup, but with a warning!\nAfter a few days of wearing Benefit’s They’re Real mascara I am absolutely smitten!\nI’m so glad! Thanks for the update 🙂 That mascara took me a good few tries because of the pokey wand, so I’m glad it worked for you straight away.
What is the biggest reason that your customers buy from you? What are several reasons, any reasons why your best customers buy from you? You've heard me ask that before. It's important for you to know because it gives you the language to speak to other customers who could be your best customers. There's nothing quite like getting the language to find new customers from the ones who are already really good customers. BUT...that goes without saying and it goes without saying because you've heard me say that before. I want to take a different spin on that today.\nThe Why and The Buy is part of the Sell or Die Podcast Network. Subscribe to these other amazing network podcasts!
Women are badass coders. True story.\nTech jobs are the future, and women are no longer content to stay in traditional 'female' roles.\nThe number of women employed in technology has been traditionally poor, but it is slowly becoming more common thanks to the efforts of networking groups, educators and the proliferation of a wider conversation.\nOnly 28 percent of employees in information and communications technology are women, according to figures released last year from the Australian Computer Society and Deloitte's digital pulse report.\nThe stigma of tech roles being reserved primarily for men have stopped women in the past, says Monique Brasher, Melbourne Regional Director of tech-focused education institution General Assembly, but the barriers are breaking down as more women are exposed to potential careers.\n"Companies need women web developers but women might not necessarily know how to enter into the workforce and how to find those roles," she told The Huffington Post Australia.\n"Probably the perception is that men code, so it's about breaking down that perception that no, women are amazing coders and they are landing amazing roles."\nMonique Brasher, Melbourne Regional Director of the Melbourne office of tech-focused education institution General Assembly.\nGeneral Assembly is a US import, with the Australian arm earning a solid reputation from the work within the tech space in its New York headquarters and global branches have done over many years.\nIt actively encourages women to its events, hackathons and Meetup groups as well as its long and short courses. Its 12-week immersive web development course is one with a low percentage of women, so Brasher says it is offering a $15,000 scholarship for one female student (applications close September 12) to encourage more to consider it as a potential career.\n"We find that every woman who has gone through this course has an amazing story to share and they get employed really fast," she said.\nBrasher said General Assembly courses are well known for intensive, accelerated learning, where course curriculums can be adjusted within a week to reflect changes in real-life industries.\nIts students were varied but caters a lot to women who have considered tech a second choice -- they either land in a role and need to upskill or they belatedly find they have a passion for the digital sphere and they want to transition their careers or launch a startup.\n"We have had lawyers, nurses, tradies, different people from all sorts of backgrounds who recognise that they have a passion for this digital space whether it be user experience design or full stack web development and this is their stepping stone into a tech role," she said.\nGeneral Assembly is in good company. US group Girl Geek Academy has stretched it wings to Australia and has partnered with General Assembly on networking and coding events to encourage more women into the space.\nIts latest initiative is a social media campaign and Melbourne event called #Ilooklikeadeveloper to encourage women to post pics of themselves to dispel the male-dominated stigma.\nGirls in Tech is another female-led San Francisco export that has just launched a chapter in Melbourne.\nIt promises to deliver workshops, panel discussions, networking functions and social engagements to its members including Amplify Pitch Night, Catalyst Conference, coding and design bootcamps, and hackathons.\nPranati Vyas was a full-time mum for 10 years before completing the Web Development Immersive program to get her own startup idea off the ground -- now she's a Software Engineer at Sanctuary Digital.\nShe said the key to encouraging more women was to start with younger children.\n"When young girls are good at math and science in school, they are not encouraged enough to pursue a tech career," she told HuffPost Australia.\n"So when the time comes, they tend not to pick STEM careers. This also leads to the fact that girls did not have many female role models to look up to, propagating the same cycle.\n"It has been a male-dominated industry for many years, where men were always thought to be better programmers. But I think it is getting better now."\nGA student Pranati Vyas used a 12-week intensive course to land a job as a software engineer after being out of the workforce for 10 years.\nVyas says the proliferation of online courses and tech-specific hubs is making it easier for women.\n"Previously, the only options available for a computer science education was university," she said, "(These programs) are more affordable than university, and the courses are three to six months, where you learn industry-relevant technology.\n"It makes them an attractive choice for women like me, trying to re-skill and return to the workforce."\nAs Director of Product with THE ICONIC shopping site, Zoe Ghani is a leader in the tech space -- but, like Vyas, rather than pursue it as a first choice she fell into it after studying and working as a journalist.\nShe worked on her newspaper's online version before falling in love with the internet and then actively pursuing product development roles with a co-op, then Yahoo, Spreet and finally moving to THE ICONIC.\nNow she heads a team of more than 50 tech engineers and leads the company's tech engagement strategy, design and user experience functions across THE ICONIC, including product innovation.\nZoe Ghani, Director of Product at THE ICONIC, says tech jobs are there for women who want them.\nShe says the barriers to entry for women in tech are not industry-specific, and that her experience is that if you want that tech role, you can have it.\n"As a woman I can say I went from sports radio to a portal to an education site for a coop which was a book retailer to a media company to fashion, so I feel like as long as women have an idea about what they want, I'm not certain industries are actually going to be deterring them," she said.\nGhani says no matter what industry, companies are selling themselves short by not employing women in tech roles.\n"One thing that businesses gain is a viewpoint diversity," she said. "What businesses will miss out on is a voice at the table that represents that audience that they are trying to service with their product.\n"So diversity breeds better problem solving within businesses and better products and services to be created."\nAs an employer herself, she would like to see more women -- even though THE ICONIC has several very senior women in its ranks.\n"If I am looking for a product manager I will have more men apply than women for the role -- and we find the same with engineering and user experience design," she said.\nHere are Ghani's top tips as a woman to rise within the tech sector as a startup founder or employee.\nWhether it's launching a startup or changing jobs within your firm, Ghani said you should move first and think about your skillset later. "Research out there shows that women always underestimate their abilities," she said. "It's about putting your hand up and then figuring out if there is a development area and working on it. Don't be afraid."\nWhether it's seed funding for your newfound digital marketing business or a promotion, you have to be a bit, well, ballsy. "The worst thing is they will say is no," she said.\nGhani said men are so much more confident in an interview or funding pitch situation, and women need to take that on board.\n"If women were more gutsier, it would make a huge difference," she said. "Know what your strengths and your blind spots are but really play for your talents."\nGhani said that, as a woman from a Afghani background, she was taught to respect her elders and found it challenging to disagree with colleagues older than she. But she had to learn to move past that.\n"I had to figure out that disagreement doesn't necessarily mean disrespect. Do speak up, regardless of whatever is holding you back. That's where your confidence is coming from and where you will create value for the business as well."

And what he made of the three finalists from the first Workplace of the Future Design Competition.\nEarlier this year, six knowledgeable and opinionated people gathered in our small conference room at Metropolis to judge the Workplace of the Future Design Competition we co-sponsored with Business Interiors by Staples. I moderated the lively discussion that stretched through the day and ended with a celebratory toast of prosecco to all 218 entrants, and the three projects that rose to the top.\nThe experts on our panel of judges included an industrial designer (Jonas Damon, creative director for frog), a workplace strategy and design specialist (Nona Gross of Siemens Corporation), an interior architect (Tom Krizmanic, principal at STUDIOS Architecture, NY), corporate real estate expert (Paul Darrah of Bridgewater Associates), and a magazine editor (Paul Makovsky, our editorial director at Metropolis). But the judge who was the most reserved among this rambunctious group, and who had the most interest in the competition’s outcome was John Michael, a 25-year veteran in contract furniture, and vice president, general manager of Furniture at Business Interiors by Staples. So I decided to get him to break his silence, talk about his impressions of the competition, and what it revealed about the future of work as this future relates to the world-wide sales organization that is Business Interiors by Staples.\nSusan S. Szenasy: You, John, more than the other judges, had a real business agenda when you decided to sponsor the Workplace of the Future Design Competition. What were your initial hopes for the competition and what did you come away with after that intense day of judging earlier this year?\nJohn Michael: From the start, our entire organization was really excited about the competition sponsorship. We have great respect for the longevity of Metropolis and the role that the publication has played in the support of Architecture, Culture, and Design over the years. In terms of a business agenda, Business Interiors by Staples has a unique and compelling story to tell. And our business has evolved and matured significantly over the past several years. We need to do a better job of sharing our message, and we viewed the competition sponsorship with Metropolis as a way to demonstrate our appreciation for the work that architects and interior designers do each and every day.\nThe day of judging was, as you said, quite intense…but it was also an absolute blast! The combination of the quality of the submittals and an outstanding panel of judges made the day enjoyable and inspiring. My big take away was that you can really begin to see a number of key design themes converging like never before…and the result is truly innovative thinking and great design.\nSSS: Does Business Interiors by Staples have some sort of post-occupancy study in place, in other words, do you find out what works and what doesn’t work after the space has been occupied for a year or so? If yes, can you give some examples of lessons learned. If no, would it be useful to work with more knowledge about how workers use their spaces?\nJM: Successful projects are the result of highly detailed programming efforts and strategic plans that embrace a broad range of team players. We have in place a process to manage post occupancy surveys and the lessons learned are shared both internally and externally with the customer.\nBusiness models change and design solutions must be flexible and fluid to adapt to the business evolution. It is very common for our customers to tweak the second-generation design based on the lessons learned. As a result, better standard, “typical” solutions evolve that simplify the design process while making it easier for the facilities and real estate decision makers to manage furniture assets.\nSSS: Your collaborators at Allsteel do some very revealing work-pattern studies, which help them design the next generation of office furniture. In your 25 years of watching the office market, what do you see as the biggest catalyst to change today? I mean the kind of change that is forcing a reassessment of 20th century ways of furnishing for working.\nJM: I believe that the biggest catalyst is the explosion of mobile technology over the past five years. Combine those mobile technologies with the influx of ‘digital natives’ entering the workforce and you have a real recipe for frame-breaking change in the nature of work and the environments that support work.\nSSS: Many Business Interiors by Staples clients are aware of the current trends in office design: managers in workstations, collaborative areas, small-group conference spaces, telecommuting options, etc. In light of all these concepts, now commonplace in workplace design, what struck you as the most innovative move you saw while judging the Workplace of the Future competition?\nJM: First of all, I thought the quality of the submittals was outstanding. The creativity, talent, and critical thinking that went into many of the entries were inspirational. I was most intrigued by one of the themes that emerged…that being the creation of shared workspaces in urban settings open to workers from different organizations. That one theme seemed to combine elements of urban renewal, environmental stewardship, collaboration (perhaps even with someone unrelated to your project!), and leveraging mobile technology.\nSSS: The most interesting solutions in the competition took a look at the buildings themselves, not simply the furniture. This kind of systems thinking is in the air. What, in your estimation, will this shift to include the container, not just the content, in office design mean to the way Business Interiors by Staples works with its clients?\nJM: I think it reinforces the notion that all of the disciplines involved in creating effective spaces need to be collaborating much earlier in the process, which needs to become less linear and more parallel. In an ideal setting, clients would select all members of the project team at the same time, eliminating the arms-length relationships we often experience today, given that the competitive selection processes for the spots on the project team take place at various times during the project timeline.\nSecond, I think including the buildings themselves in the thought-process greatly expands the possible solutions for clients…it provides a much larger canvas on which to create optimal work settings.
"1971 saw the release of the first album by this Mexican rock legend, one of these albums you must own. Probably the best acid rock album ever made in Latin America and among the best worldwide, plenty of fuzz guitars and excellent compositions. A real classic in all senses.

Premium mix for Mexican Butterworts. Now the only mix we use at Cascade Carnivores. Last year we began testing this mix for our Mexican Pinguicula. We like the fact that this mix doesn't contain any peat moss, and is therefore environmentally friendly. And we love the fact that our Pinguicula plants develop superior root systems in this mix.\nContains an aquatic planting medium based on arcilite, a common clay-based mineral used in soil-less planting mixes. Also includes horticultural silica sand and a very small amount of iron oxide. There are no seeds in this mix. It is a soil-less potting mix only.\nPlease note: These potting mixes are heavy! If you do order mixes, please don't complain about the high cost of shipping. To help reduce these costs on this, our heaviest shipping item, we will now ship this item via Priority Medium Flat Rate, separately from the other items in your order. A Medium Priority Flat Rate box will allow up to 6 quarts for one rate. Currently that rate is $14.35 for shipping one quart, or six quarts (which would only be $2.39 each!).\nShipping weight 2 lb 8 oz.

Are you looking for a pro quality sewing machine at a reasonable cost?\nIf you deal with a lot of projects which involve complicated stitching and a lot of difficult areas, you’ll know how time-consuming it can be to get through what seems like a relatively small amount of work.\nOf course, time is the one thing that most of us don’t have enough of. It’s important to try to find ways to get things done more efficiently.\nBut, while we want to be more efficient, we also need to be careful not to compromise on quality. You need to find a sewing machine that can cope with difficult and awkward stitching easily and quickly, and still give you professional quality results.\nOn top of all that, you need to make sure you don’t go in over your head and end up buying something that’s going to be difficult to use and tedious to understand. You need a straightforward and simple-to-use machine that you can put to work right away.\nTo some people, this machine can appear a little daunting at first.\nIt’s heavily computerized, which can give it the impression of being complicated to use. In fact, it’s not at all – the computerization actually makes it a lot easier to understand and operate than it otherwise would be.\nThe way the Singer 9960 runs is often a big surprise to those who try it for the first time. It is impressively quick while being pleasantly quiet. For those who have recently gotten into sewing and have recently upgraded to this machine, it goes a long way towards helping them feel like they’ve bridged the gap between being a beginner and an accomplished sewer.\nIf you have a lot of projects to get through, projects which require difficult stitching, or require a wide variety of different stitches, you’d better take a look at the Singer 9960.\nIf you get through a good amount of work, but using your current machine leaves you feeling beat, this machine could make a world of difference to you.\nThis machine comes with 600 built-in stitches. That knowledge may leave you wondering how you’re ever supposed to remember which one is which and worried that you might waste a lot of time agonizing over which stitch to use.\nWell, fear not – on the upper lid of the machine, there is a chart which shows you what each stitch looks like and makes it easy to select the one you need.\nIt has all the features you would expect of such a machine, such as the drop-in bobbin, automatic needle threader, extension table and so on.\nIt also has a ‘Digital Information Advisor’, with an LCD screen which gives you information about, and allows you to adjust things like stitch width, length and type and gives advice about things like which presser foot to use.\nIt comes with eighteen different presser feet and has thirteen different automatic buttonhole styles. In fact, it’s difficult to think of features it doesn’t have that you might need.\nOne characteristic of the Singer 9960 that is particularly reassuring is its heavy duty interior metal frame.\nIt ensures that, when dealing with difficult fabrics or difficult designs, you can keep sewing without any danger of skipping, as the frame adequately counters the tension and motion between needle and fabric.\nThe hard frame also means that, unlike some other machines, you really don’t need to handle it with kid gloves.\nIt’s sturdy and strong enough to handle thick fabric without breaking easily, which means you can rely on it to deal with both intricate and heavy duty sewing.\nWhat stands out most about the Singer 9960 is just how smooth and fast it runs.\nIf you’ve spent time using more basic machines, you may not realize just how much easier sewing can be. That’s where this machine puts a big smile on people’s faces.\nSuch a feature-rich, computerized machine may seem, at first, to present a challenge to traditionalists: it looks complicated to use.\nI know – I was that person with those very same thoughts. I worried that I would be wasting time every time I sat down with the machine, trying to figure out what every little button and lever did.\nWhat reassured me was the well-written handbook which comes with the machine. It makes everything much more straightforward.\nI recommend sitting down with the machine and the handbook the first time you use it. Go through the different functions and see for yourself just how simple it is to use.\nOnce you’ve gotten that out of the way, you can put the handbook away and get on with your sewing.\nForget struggling to try to stitch through tough fabrics, having to use the same stitches over and over again in all of your projects, struggling with machines that make you do a lot of work before you even start to sew.\nThe Singer 9960 is a machine which opens up doors which were previously locked.\nNow you can handle difficult designs and difficult fabrics without having to worry about damaging the machine or making a mess.\nAnd you don’t need to study for a degree to use it either – even youngsters who are just starting out with sewing can get to grips with it in a couple hours.\nP.S. Now you’ve read about the features and advantages that separate the Singer 9960 from its competitors and addressed concerns about its ease of use, you might want to read through some more information to help you make your choice. In order to compare it with the other top models on the market, you can read through the other reviews here.

RICHMOND \| Corporate titans, well-connected lobbyists and staunch conservatives share Republican Gov.-elect Robert F. McDonnell’s transition team with some Democrats.\nSome who now sit on McDonnell transition work groups even held senior positions in the administrations of Democratic governors present and past.\nThe number of people advising the conservative Mr. McDonnell in 13 different policy areas before his Republican administration takes over Jan. 16 stood at 300 as of Thursday afternoon, with additions still coming.\nPolitically, they range from Delegate Adam Ebbin, Alexandria Democrat, Virginia’s first openly gay legislator, to Victoria Cobb, president of the socially conservative Family Foundation. Also on the list is Ben Marchi, Virginia coordinator for Americans for Prosperity, which organizes “tea party” rallies against Democratic initiatives such as the federal stimulus program and health and energy reform bills still before Congress.\nCorporate power is represented. Thomas F. Farrell II, chief executive of Virginia’s dominant power utility, Dominion, is a transition team leader. He and Mr. McDonnell are childhood friends. Other notable names from the business world include former Landmark Communications chief executive John O. “Dubby” Wynne and Black Entertainment Television co-founder Sheila C. Johnson.\nMr. Wynne and Ms. Johnson were generous campaign donors to Mr. McDonnell, but both have also given to Democratic candidates or committees, illustrating how business and corporate donors can drift between parties depending on the nominee.\nThis year, Mr. Wynne gave Mr. McDonnell’s campaign $50,000, according to the Virginia Public Access Project, a nonprofit and nonpartisan tracker of cash in Virginia state politics. But he also gave $25,000 to Moving Virginia Forward, a Virginia political action committee controlled by Gov. Tim Kaine, the Democratic National Committee chairman. And in 2002, Mr. Wynne served on a government efficiency study group appointed by former Democratic Gov. Mark Warner and headed by former Gov. L. Douglas Wilder, also a Democrat.\nJames W. Beamer, who lobbies for Dominion Resources, serves on Mr. McDonnell’s natural resources work group.\nStephen A. Horton, whose clients include Verizon and multinational health care and personal services provider ResCare, advises Mr. McDonnell’s health and human services work group.\nMichael Woods, whose clients include insurers, Carmax and beer brewer Anheuser-Busch, advises the transportation work group.\nMay Fox, who represents health care clients, the Chesapeake Bay Foundation and a major liquor manufacturer, is on the administration work group.\nThe transition team is a who’s who of important GOP names.\nMr. McDonnell, attorney general from 2006 until this winter, included his two immediate predecessors, Republicans Jerry W. Kilgore and Mark L. Earley, on public safety work groups. Unlike Mr. McDonnell, they fell short in their efforts to jump from attorney general to governor.\nThe team also includes Frank Atkinson, a veteran Republican strategist and author of two books on the GOP ascendancy in Virginia, and Ken Hutcheson, who managed Mr. Kilgore’s 2005 gubernatorial campaign.\nMr. McDonnell had named 28 current Republican state legislators and half that many Democrats to his work groups as of Thursday.
In 1911, Ray’s “secret” was discovered by a frontier doctor, Mary Canaga Rowlands, when Ray was committed to an asylum under Dr. Rowlands’ care. On Ray’s medical chart the doctor noted that the patient experienced “hallucinations and illusions of…hearing people trying to get into [the] room.” The medical records also listed him as a “widower” but gave no information about his wife.\nAccording to the doctor’s account, “the authorities made her [sic] wear dresses, but she confided to her friends that she wore pants below her dress because her legs got cold.” Ray clearly identified as male, asking the doctor, who continued to treat him when he was ill, “Look at me… do you think I have one feminine feature?” Finally, he died in 1921 – and his newspaper obituary referred to him as a woman.

New Scientist (not a great site, but often interesting) has the story of the accidental discovery of a material that is both super-hard and far slipperier than teflon, the old standby.\n"Its hardness was discovered by accident. We had a terrible time cutting it, grinding it, or polishing it,"\nSounds promising, if you want your next CZ to cost $3000.\nI find it interesting that fan blades were the only idea these guys came up with. That kind of tells me that there are other not-so-beneficial properties we're not hearing about.\nIf the heat resistance is there, I'd think priority #1 would be putting it on pots and pans. There are too many people like me who are sick and tired of not being able to use a thin metal spatula on his frying pans. And I'll have to go through an awful lot of slide oil to get as mad about my rails as I am about my frying pans.\nAnd Yes, before Cz gets it into a nice dunkable-bucket form, I realize there are aspects of materials science left unaddressed by that article. Still, if high-speed drill bits are a reasonable application, I think gun slides could be on the same list, wrt durability and heat resistance.\nAluminum has been tied to Alzheimers.\nSo, no matter what you cook with, it'll kill you.\nIt'll cause cancer! (A lot of people think that of the various Teflon-and-branded-derivative coatings; I have no strong opinion, but have seen a lot of abused non-stick pans and do wonder whether I've injested much of the stuff.\nI seem to recall someone being assassinated when they put Teflon paint in his cigarette.\nHow do you know it wasn't the cigarette that killed him?\nContains a reference to cermet, an additional information URL, and an eddress for Dr. Bruce A. Cook at the Ames lab.\nThe purity and initial particle size of the precursor materials have been shown to strongly influence the hardness and wear resistance of the final product. Similarly, the type and configuration of the mechanical alloying equipment employed in the production of the nanophase powders also affects the quality of the product.\nBe nice if they could vacuum-deposit it, like TiNi.\nOr maybe electrophoretically coat the substrate with the precursors and then bake it all together.

Aga Khan, spiritual leader to Ismaili Muslims, in Canada for eight-day visit - 2008-11-22 \| Ismaili.NET - Heritage F.I.E.L.D.\nHe will head west next week, first to Calgary to meet with Alberta Lt.-Gov. Norman Kwong and officials from the University of Alberta, followed by a stop in Vancouver to meet British Columbia Premier Gordon Campbell and Burnaby, B.C., Mayor Derek Corrigan, whose city is home to a sizable Ismaili community.\nThe Aga Khan will also meet and address gatherings of the Ismaili community to discuss the nature of the work he is doing with Canada, how the community has evolved and where he sees it going, said Amir Karim, a Montreal volunteer with the Aga Khan Council for Canada.\nBorn in Switzerland and now residing in France, His Highness Prince Karim Aga Khan became the 49th hereditary Imam of the Shia Imami Ismaili Muslims - generally known as the Ismailis - in 1957 at age 20 following his grandfather's death.\nBeyond his role as spiritual leader, he is known for his work helping to improve the lives of those in developing nations through the Aga Khan Development Network, which he founded more than 40 years ago.\nThe network has forged a long-standing relationship with Canada, which has seen AKDN, particularly through Aga Khan Foundation Canada, a charitable organization, collaborate with universities, government departments, civil society organizations and the private sector to help developing nations.\nOne such example involves Hamilton's McMaster University, which worked with the Aga Khan University in Karachi, Pakistan, to bring the first international standard school of nursing to that part of the world, said Khalil Shariff, CEO of Aga Khan Foundation Canada.\nThe Aga Khan will preside over the signing of a memorandum of understanding between McMaster and AKU during his visit to Toronto.\nIn October 2006, the Aga Khan and Prime Minister Stephen Harper announced the Imam and Ottawa would each contribute $30 million to a new Global Centre for Pluralism, a think-tank and research facility to be housed in the old Canadian War Museum.\n'I think he understands that all the work he does in international development and addressing the great issues of our day as part of the mandate of his office,' Shariff said.

Genre classification is common task in music data mining. However, classification of drum grooves is uncommon and little research has been done in this area. This paper describes an algorithm to model and classify drum grooves. The algorithm is based on music data mining research in areas other than genre classification, specifically musical melody information retrieval. The genre classification results achieved, while promising, are inconclusive and additional research is needed to validate this approach. However, the approach described shows great facility as a new method of drum groove search and retrieval.

Cyber risk is far from static. It’s ever-evolving, erratic and completely at odds with the traditional insurance model.\nThe risk changes so quickly that accustomed year-long policy periods suddenly become a bit of a gamble. There’s nothing a carrier or broker can know upon policy issuance that will give enough confidence that cyber exposures will not evolve within the course of the policy. A vulnerability crops up two months into the policy period, and many companies simply have to carry that bad risk on their portfolio for another 10 months.\nCalifornia-based cyber insurer At-Bay is working hard to counteract that problem. Its cyber security research and modeling approach predicts future risks based on emerging threats. The company is always scanning for new vulnerabilities to help its customers close security holes quickly and avoid loss.\nThe broker channel is a key gateway of communication and education about cyber risk. At-Bay partners with brokers and gives them security and financial exposure insights that they can pass on to their client to help them design a proactive, comprehensive risk management program.\nAt-Bay recently introduced two new features to its portfolio of cyber risk assessment products that will act as key tools for intermediaries: Security Score and a Data Breach Cost Calculator. The Security Score gives customers tools to benchmark their security and understand their top vulnerabilities, while the Data Breach Cost Calculator allows risk managers to model loss scenarios to understand potential financial exposure.\n“Our guiding principal is that if we generate insight internally about a client, we want the broker to have access to that insight. Cyber’s not a figured-out space, so there’s lots of room to provide brokers with tools so they can best serve their clients,” Iram told Insurance Business. “Our new Security Score calculator generates security reports about companies that brokers can share with clients in order to have more focused cyber risk management conversations.\nBusiness is going “incredibly well” for At-Bay after only four months in the market. Yesterday, the company announced a $13 million Series A funding round co-led by Keith Rabois of Khosla Ventures, Yoni Cheifetz of Lightspeed and Shlomo Kramer. This brings the company’s total funding to $19 million. Shlomo Kramer, former founder of Check Point and Imperva, as well as CEO of Cato Networks, will join At-Bay’s board.\n“We’re really excited and honored to have the support of Keith Rabois, Yoni Cheifetz and Shlomo Kramer. We’re proud they’ve selected to back us up and we will do everything we can to deliver the high standards they expect,” Iram commented.\nDoes a soft cyber insurance market harm consumers?
Just days ago I posted images of my favorite house and promised more when the home would be in festive mode for a wedding celebration. (here) That is still to come. In the mean time, it turns out I've completely fallen for another house. I feel a bit unfaithful about it, but wait until you see the charm... it's another good one, I assure you.\nCoincidentally, this favorite house is all dolled up entertaining the first favorite house as they celebrate the special wedding this weekend. Needless to say, I promptly called this favorite house and invited myself over to take photos. Thank goodness she was an easy sell. SO NICE!\nIn case you haven't noticed, I'm in love with these green shutters.\nPleaching! Remember my post on pleaching? (here) I've never seen it in person in my life, and it's right here in this backyard.\nSee the pleaching? It goes all the way around the yard - you can see the wire where it will continue to grow. Even with our horrible summer weather, SCORCHING HOT weather, the pleaching seems to have survived.\nThe kitchen is open to this lovely dining area with a grand view of the courtyard.\nThey bought this table in Florence!\nI snuck upstairs in the midst of party-preparation-chaos while the gracious hostess remained relaxed and calm.

African eggplant, or Solanum aethiopicum, is a locally loved perennial vegetables crop found throughout tropical Africa and South America. One of the most commonly consumed fruit vegetables in tropical Africa, parts of India, and tropical Brazil, its fruits are usually picked immature. It can be used in cooked stews, pickled, and in a variety of medicinal applications. This crop has significant importance for New Americans of the African diaspora with small businesses in Vermont shipping the fruit as far as Arizona, Texas, Utah, Michigan and Idaho. Since there has not been any commercial African eggplant production or marketing in the US in the past, the market for African eggplant presents an entrepreneurial opportunity for New Americans that are trying to establish profitable businesses and expand the diversity of Vermont crops available to its residents. Barriers to these businesses include a lack of supply in available cultivars adapted to Vermont’s growing environment and lack of demand as many mainstream American consumers who may find the bitter fruit unpalatable. The barriers to supply could be overcome or drastically reduced by breeding new cultivars that are both better adapted to Vermont’s growing conditions and stakeholder practices. Additionally, a cultivar with a lower level of bitterness could generate demand in non-traditional consumers within the American markets. Our initial breeding efforts at UVM in collaboration with the Association of African Living in Vermont are beginning to adapt this loved tropical fruit to Vermont by making crosses among the four market classes of this crop.

The Devil Wears Prada have announced their return to Rise Records and their next release, a conceptual EP entitled Space, coming in summer 2015. The Space EP marks the band's first concept release since Zombie and the first on Rise Records since their sophomore release, Plagues, in 2007.\nCommenting on their return to Rise Records, vocalist Mike Hranica noted, "We're all very confident in working with Rise again. The label has grown tremendously since our first release back in 2006, nonetheless we know their intention is still the same as ever and we know it's a model that will compliment us well. We're persistently hands-on and love to do exactly as we please, and they're a great place for us to be able to continue that path while supporting our visions. Rise can be commended, deservedly, for their wholehearted drive at releasing albums they believe in; and it's that enthusiasm that is both welcoming and exciting for our band moving forward."
In May of last year (hey! we can officially say “last year” now!) the New York Times published an in-depth look at the opioid epidemic in Eureka. The article featured talks with local officials, drug users and, of course, the Humboldt Area Center for Harm Reduction (HACHR) which operates Eureka’s Syringe Exchange Program.\nNow, HACHR Executive Director and founder Brandie Wilson is featured on the NYT’s “18 Memorable People We Met Across the Country in 2018,” posted late last week.\nBut Wilson says she cares less about the personal glory and more about what the attention means for HACHR and the community it is trying to help. Wilson was happy with the initial NYT article and the attention it brought to problems of homelessness and poverty in the area, issues she sees as at the root of the needle problem.\n“The article helped elevate our work in harm reduction, helped put a spotlight on the way that we organized here and the way that we value the voices and experiences of people who use drugs,” she said.\nWilson also said that the initial article helped bring more support and resources to HACHR and the community. After the article was published HACHR was contacted by Gilead Sciences, which provides “invitation only” funding towards groups that help with Hepatitis C. Wilson was also contacted by Senator Dianne Feinstein, asking what the community needed and how she could help.\nOn a broader level, Wilson feels that any exposure which keeps people talking about the issues of drug addiction and homelessness is a good thing. “As long as we keep talking about it, solutions will keep coming,” she said.
Kentucky contains four schools that offer diagnostic medical sonography programs. West Kentucky Community and Technical College, the highest-ranking diagnostic medical sonography school in KY, has a total student population of 7,464 and is the 4269th highest ranked school in America.\nOf the 4 diagnostic medical sonography schools in Kentucky, none have a student population over 10k. After taking into account tuition, living expenses, and financial aid, Saint Catharine College comes out as the most expensive ($13,793/yr), with Bowling Green Technical College as the lowest recorded at only $5,864/yr.\nDiagnostic Medical Sonography students from Kentucky schools who go on to become diagnostic medical sonographers, sonographers, etc. have a good chance at finding employment. For example, there are 51,630 people working as diagnostic medical sonographers alone in the US, and their average annual salary is $63,640.\nAlso, within the diagnostic medical sonography schools in Kentucky, the average student population is 2,555 and average student-to-faculty ratio is 16 to 1. Aside from diagnostic medical sonography, there are 2859 total degree (or certificate) programs in the state, with 2,477 people on average applying for a school. Undergraduate tuition costs are normally around $4,117, but can vary widely depending on the type of school.
Marine special forces moved in on a condo complex in the heart of the pacific resort city and captured Mexico's most wanted criminal. Guzman was arrested along with a female collaborator. According to authorities, not one shot was fired.\nNine hours later, the arrest was officially announced. Speaking to reporters at Mexico City Airport's Marine base, Attorney General Jesus Murillo Karam said doctors and federal investigators wanted to confirm Guzman's identity first, to be 100-percent certain they got the right guy.\nSuch caution is understandable given the mythical status Guzman has gained. He eluded capture for more than a decade. Thirteen years ago, imprisoned and nearing extradition to the U.S., Guzman escaped a maximum security prison by hiding in a laundry bin. Sightings of him are frequently reported, and his operation is said to be active in four continents, including Africa, Europe and Australia, with annual profits of more than $3 billion a year.\nThat's plenty of money to bribe officials and build a security detail that has long left him several steps ahead of arresting authorities. Guzman's trafficking network extends to hundreds of U.S. cities and in at least eight, he is named in federal indictments. Last year, Chicago's Crime Commission labeled him Public Enemy Number One.\nIt was last weekend when Mexican marines began to close in on the drug lord, Karam said. Unfortunately, Guzman was able to escape through a complex series of tunnels connecting as many as seven safe houses.\nThe doors in some of the houses were made out of steel, and Karam says in the time it took the Marines to knock them down, Guzman slipped away through the tunnels. Out of concern for local residents, Karam says, forces waited several days for the best opportunity before making the arrest.\nPresident Enrique Pena Nieto, who has been in office for 14 months and has routinely downplayed drug violence in the country, is not one to parade captured drug traffickers in public. But given Guzman's status — and that the last picture seen of him was taken 13 years ago — Guzman got a grand perp walk.\nImmediately following the press conference, two camouflaged army soldiers marched Guzman — one with his hand clutching the back of the drug trafficker's neck — past reporters and live TV cameras to an awaiting helicopter. His hair was dyed jet black and he wore a bushy mustache.\nGeorge Grayson, an expert on Mexico's cartels, said the arrest was a big success for the Pena Nieto administration, but will unlikely damage the powerful trafficking organization.\n"The takedown of El Chapo is a thorn in the side, but not a dagger in the heart of the Sinaloa Cartel," he says.\nGuzman's second-in-command, Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada is expected to seamlessly take over without contention from lower lieutenants. In the central park of the Sinaloa capital of Culiacan, however, residents are bracing for violence.\nAmado, a 53-year old shoe-shiner who would only give his first name, says he's been listening to clients all day worrying about what was going to happen if rival drug cartels come in and take over Sinaloa.\nEl Chapo is feared here, Amado says, but at least he kept Sinaloa relatively peaceful all these years.

The other day my friend Carly and I were shopping, and Carly mentioned that the places she used to buy her activewear have been seeming a little boring (and a little yoga-mom-ish) lately. I immediately thought of Carbon38 and told her she needed to check out their site – it’s like athleisure fashion with an edge, but still functional pieces for working out. And they’ve got all my favorite fitness brands in one easy place. After that conversation, I decided to throw up a blog post for anyone that’s feeling the same as Carly and I. Carbon38’s stuff is so good that I’ll wear it to work out, run errands, AND go out – I swear.

Rhabdomyolysis is a relatively rare, but potentially serious complication of various diseases. Muscular injury and resultant release of electrolytes, myoglobin and other enzymatic proteins e.g. creatine kinase (CK) into circulation may result in multi-organ failure requiring an extensive treatment. Non-traumatic causes of rhabdomyolysis, like poisonings, appear to be much more frequent than traumatic causes. We present the case of a patient who developed exceptionally massive rhabdomyolysis, with CK up to 516 455 U/l, after ingestion of a relatively small dose of a novel psychoactive substance known as “Alice in Wonderland”. Laboratory quantification was performed using a validated LC-MS/MS method in a whole blood sample.\nAbbreviations: 25I-NBOMe, 2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodo-N-(2-methoxybenzyl)phenethylamine; HS/GC-MS, head-space gas chromatography mass spectrometry; HPLC-FL, fluorescent high performance liquid chromatography; LC-MS/MS, liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry; LOD, limit of detection; LOQ, limit of quantitation; NPS, novel psychoactive substances; CT, computed tomography; CVVHD CiCa, continuous venovenous hemodialysis with citrate calcium; iHD, intermittent hemodialysis; CK, creatine kinase; LDH, lactate dehydrogenase; AlAT, alanine aminotransferase; AspAT, aspartate aminotransferase; CRP, C reactive protein; INR, international normalized ratio; APTT, activated partial thromboplastin time.\nCompound 25I-NBOMe was created in research laboratories as a potent serotonin (5-HT2A) receptor agonist, but because of its high hallucinogenic properties it has been used as an alternative to other drugs such as lysergic acid diethylamide. This has been associated with severe toxicity and fatalities. Prevalence of 25I-NBOMe use and acute toxicity for the years 2010–2015 are given by Wood (Wood et al., 2015).\nRhabdomyolysis is a condition characterized by damage of muscular tissue with resultant release of electrolytes, myoglobin and other enzymatic proteins, such as CK, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), alanine aminotransferase (AlAT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AspAT), into circulation. This may lead to hypotonia and renal failure due to complex process of fluid escape from circulation to the injured muscles (Huerta-Alardin et al., 2005; Bosch et al., 2009).\nRhabdomyolysis may be of traumatic or non-traumatic origin. The former is associated with crushing, burning, stenosis or occlusion of blood vessels with resultant ischemia, strenuous physical exercise, prolonged seizures or immobilization. The non-traumatic rhabdomyolysis, which appear to be at least 5 times more frequent, may be a consequence of toxic injury caused by medications, illicit drugs, plant toxins, animal poisons, electrolyte and metabolic disorders, infections, neuroleptic malignant syndrome, dermatomyositis and polymyositis. It is usually the result of multiple contributing factors. (Efstratiadis et al., 2007; Keltz et al., 2013).\nIt is noteworthy that despite the fact that rhabdomyolysis can result from exposure to at least 150 various medications and toxins, it is usually a consequence of toxic injury caused by illicit drugs and alcohol (Melli et al., 2005).\nMost patients do not show the classical triad of symptoms associated with rhabdomyolysis, i.e. swelling, muscle pain and discoloration of urine.\nThe individuals with rhabdomyolysis typically present muscle weakness, pain in isolated muscle groups and/or poor general condition. Biochemical abnormalities include increased activity of CK, observed as early as 4-6 hours after the exposure to an etiological factor of rhabdomyolysis. According to Sharon (Sharon, 2005), the activity of CK in patients with massive rhabdomyolysis ranges between 10 000 U/l and more than 100 000 U/l.\nWe report a case of a 20-year-old male who developed massive rhabdomyolysis with a maximum serum concentration of CK exceeding 500 000 U/l (normal limit: < 200 U/l) and multi-organ failure after a recreational use of a party pill known as “Alice in Wonderland”.\nAccording to the best of our knowledge only Luckoor (Luckoor et al., 2017) described such an extreme increase in CK activity.\nToxicological studies have detected 25I-NBOMe alone as a substance responsible for the clinical picture and the course of intoxication. Laboratory quantification was performed using a validated LC-MS/MS method in a whole blood sample.\nA 20-year-old Caucasian male patient with no significant past medical history was admitted to a hospital after a seizure episode he experienced during a party. According to the witnesses, just before the attack, the male took an illegal psychoactive agent of unknown name. No traces of opiates, amphetamine, methamphetamine, cocaine, phencyclidine and tetrahydrocannabinol were found in routine toxicological screen of the urine sample. Due to unclear etiology of the patient’s condition, comprehensive differential diagnostics were implemented, including computed tomography (CT) of the head and lumbar puncture. None of these tests revealed any significant abnormalities. The most important abnormalities in physical examination, main treatment strategy and biochemical results were shown in Table 1 and Table 2.\nThe muscle swelling gradually resolved beginning on the 14th day of the hospital stay, and a pulse could be determined on both radial arteries. The status of the patient stabilized during subsequent days, and then gradually improved. Also, normalization of fluid, electrolyte and metabolic balance was observed, along with the return of a spontaneous lower limb mobility in response to touch and acoustic stimulation. After discontinuing the mechanical ventilation, the rehabilitation was intensified, which resulted in a gradual normalization of the patient’s motor function.\nReagents and materials. 25I-NBOMe and mephedrone-D3, used as an internal standard (IS) were purchased from Cerilliant (Round Rock, Texas, USA). Acetonitrile (MeCN) (HPLC-grade) and formic acid (98–100%) were bought from Merck (Warsaw, Poland).\nBlank blood samples used for validation of the method and preparing controls were obtained from a regional blood donation center. The blank blood samples were screened for common drugs of abuse, including 143 NPS (Adamowicz et al., 2015), and results were negative. Biological material was stored at –20°C before the analysis.\nStandards, calibrators and controls preparation. Stock solutions of 25I-NBOMe (1 mg/ml) were stored at –20°C. Calibrators were prepared in 0.2 ml of drug-free blood samples by spiking them with 25I-NBOMe to the concentrations of 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, and 0.5 ng/ml. Control samples of 25I-NBOMe at 0.1 and 0.5 ng/ml, negative blood controls and mephedrone-D3 as IS at the concentration of 50 ng/ml were also prepared.\nDetection, identification and quantification of 25I-NBOMe. 25I-NBOMe was detected and identified in blood of the patient using LC-MS/MS multi-analyte method developed by Adamowicz (Adamowicz et al., 2015). This method fulfilled the requirements for screening and qualitative methods as advised by Scientific Working Group for Forensic Toxicology (SWGTOX) (SWGTOX, 2013), where the limit of detection (LOD) for 25I-NBOMe was set at 0.09 ng/ml in the experiments performed in this article. For quantitative analysis the method was validated as follows. Five microliters of 2 μg/ml methanolic solution of IS were added to the blood samples (0.2 ml) and placed in Eppendorf vials to obtain a final concentration of 50 ng/ml. For all calculations, the ratio of areas of analyte to IS was used. The samples were precipitated with MeCN. To this end, 600 μl of MeCN were added to each sample in 200 μl portions, and after each addition, the samples were vortex mixed for 10 s. Next, the samples were mixed for 5 min and centrifuged at 13 000 rpm for 5 min, followed by the transfer of the supernatant into 2 ml glass vials. Next, supernatant was evaporated to dryness under air at 37oC. The dry residues were dissolved in 100 μl of 0.1% formic acid in water (v/v) and transferred to inserts placed in autosampler vials. The compound was quantified using five-point blood calibration curves.\nThe blood extracts were analysed using an Agilent Technologies 1200 series liquid chromatograph coupled to a 6460 Triple Quad mass spectrometer. Separation was achieved on a Zorbax SB-C18 (2.1 mm × 50 mm, 1.8 μm) column (Perlan Technologies, Warsaw, Poland) maintained at 25°C. The mobile phase consisting of 0.1% formic acid in MeCN (v/v) and 0.1% formic acid in water (v/v) was composed under the following gradient conditions (shown in relation to MeCN content): 0 min – 10%, 6 min – 100%, 7 min – 10%, and 14 min – 10%. The flow rate was 0.3 ml/min. The injection volume was 10 μl. Dynamic multiple reaction monitoring (dMRM) with positive ion detection was applied. In targeted assay the precursor and three fragment ions of 25I-NBOMe 428.1 → 121.0, 428.1 → 93.0, 428.1 → 91.0, and of mephedrone-D3: 181.1 → 163.1, 181.1 → 148.1, 181.1→ 91.1 (the quantifier shown in bold) were selected for monitoring. Retention time of 25I-NBOMe was 6.28 min, relative retention time – 2.92 min, total analysis time – 14 min. The mass detector parameters were as follows: capillary voltage: 3000 V, gas flow (N2): 10 l/min, and gas temperature: 325°C, sheath gas flow: 10 l/min, sheath gas temperature: 325°C, nebulizer pressure: 40 psi, cycle time: 500 ms, minimum dwell time: 38.17 ms, maximum dwell time: 246.50 ms, and retention time window: 2 min. The fragmentor voltages and collision energies for 25I-NBOMe were: 118 V and 20, 36 and 56 V, and for mephedrone-D3: 87 V and 8 and 20 V, respectively.\nTargeted method validation parameters. Results of validation of LC-MS/MS method for a quantitative assay for 25I-NBOMe analysis in blood were as follows. The direct method was found to be selective for 25I-NBOMe. No interfering peaks were observed in the extract of analyte-free blood collected from five persons. Interferences with common drugs typically taken in combination by the drug addicts, and other 141 NPS, were tested and could be excluded due to different retention time and MRM transitions. The LOD was estimated as signal to noise, S/N=3, and it was 0.09 ng/ml for the transition with the lowest intensity (Adamowicz et al., 2015). The five-point blood calibration curve was prepared (number of replicates for each level, n=3) in the range of 0.1–0.5 ng/ml. The value of limit of quantitation (LOQ) was assumed to be the lowest point from the calibration curve, and it was 0.1 ng/ml. The assay was linear in the range of LOQ to the highest calibrator, which was 0.5 ng/ml. The matrix effect at the concentration of 0.5 ng/ml (n=3) was calculated by comparing the response (analyte area/IS area) measured for 25I-NBOMe and blank blood extract samples. Matrix effect for 25I-NBOMe was 76% on average, and showed moderate signal suppression.\nCarryover effect should be always considered when working with sub-nanogram quantities. Two main actions were taken to monitor it. First, we analyzed a blank blood sample before the case sample, since the injection of solvent is usually ineffective, and second, we compared the quantitative results of two consecutive case samples. The routine handling of the case samples was separated from the calibration samples.\nThe reconstituted extracts were stable for a period of more than 24 h at room temperature.\nThe MRM chromatogram of the blood sample of the patient, obtained by the targeted method, is presented in Fig. 1. The concentration of 25I-NBOMe in blood of the patient, determined by direct analysis using validated LC-MS/MS method, was 0.24 ng/ml on admission to the hospital. Initial toxicological screens and analyses were performed on the blood samples, including volatiles by head-space gas chromatography mass spectrometry (HS/GC-MS), immunoassay for several classes of drugs, and a screen for other pH-dependent (acidic and alkaline) extractable drugs by GC-MS. Additionally, a targeted analysis for LSD, using fluorescent high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC-FL), was also performed. No volatiles, drugs, or LSD were detected.\nRecently, numerous cases of severe poisonings and fatal intoxications, especially in teenagers and young adults who have consumed blotter papers containing 25I-NBOMe and/or ingested or smoked other new psychoactive substances (NPS), have been reported all over the world. (Wood et al., 2015).\nUse of 25I-NBOMe in both liquid and powder form has been described, with many potential routes of administration, including inhalation of vapor, nasal insufflation, oral ingestion, sublingual/buccal administration, and intravenous injection (Weaver et al., 2015).\nThe most common clinical presentations were sympathomimetic toxidrome (tachycardia, hypertension, mydriasis, agitation, and hypokalemia) plus hallucinations, bizarre behavior, and persistent seizure activity likely associated with serotonergic toxicity (Rose et al., 2012).\nAmong others, rhabdomyolysis is a relatively common complication of severe NBOMe toxicity (Halberstadt. 2017). One of rhabdomyolysis markers is high activity of creatine kinase in blood (exceeding the normal upper limit 10-25 times, Linares et al., 2009).\nA small active dose of 25I-NBOMe and its analogs leads to low concentrations of the compound in the organism, therefore analytical methods to detect and quantify this substance in bio-samples must be highly accurate, sensitive and specific. The most suitable method for this purpose is high performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) (Johnson et al., 2014).\nUp to now, limited data have been published concerning concentrations of 25I-NBOMe in intoxicated and fatally poisoned persons, especially after just a single ingestion of this drug. Hill et al. identified, but without quantification, 25I-NBOMe in plasma samples from seven patients (Hill et al., 2013). In the serum specimen drawn from an 18-year-old male admitted to an emergency department, 25I-NBOMe was detected in concentration of 0.76 ng/ml (Rose & Poklis et al., 2013). In 2014 Poklis presented first postmortem case of 25I-NBOMe intoxication documented by toxicological analysis of tissues and body fluids (Poklis et al., 2014). Hermanns-Clausen described a case of a rapid degradation of 25I-NBOMe metabolites in serum after mistaken intake of its concentrated solution. At 50 minutes and 13 hours after the drug ingestion, the concentrations of 25I-NBOMe in serum were 34 and 4.2 ng/ml, respectively (Hermanns-Clausen et al., 2017). In the postmortem heart blood taken from a 16 year old male, who was partying with friends and used a drug that was spotted on blotter paper, the toxicological analyses revealed 25I-NBOMe present at concentration of 19.8 ng/ml (Shanks et al., 2014).\nValidated LC-MS/MS method is the effective tool to measure the concentration of 25I-NBOMe in blood.\n25I-NBOMe appears to be potent with a reported concentration of 0.24 ng/ml in blood and can result in life-threatening overdose.\nThe use of new psychoactive substances containing 25I-NBOMe may result in massive rhabdomyolysis associated with multi-organ failure, sepsis, and severe coagulopathies.\nEarly CVVHD CiCa seems to be efficient in normalizing disorders associated to muscle injury and treating complications of severe rhabdomyolysis.
We look forward to helping you find your forever friend. To help you through this process we have provided some Frequently Asked Questions. Please contact us at 217-223-8786 if you have additional questions.\nIf you are interested in adopting an animal, you first must fill out an application. An adoption counselor will look over the application and verify any information with landlords, past/present veterinarians, and also do a background check. In most cases, we will require any potential adopters to meet and interact with the animal before putting it on hold. Adoptions generally take approximately 24-48 hours. We rarely allow an animal to go home the same day. It is important to remember that we may have multiple applications for one animal, and our goal is to match the animal with the best fit for them.\nWhat does it mean to put an animal on hold?\nIf an application is approved, we can place an animal on a temporary hold. This will give potential adopters the opportunity to think about the big decision to adopt an animal, purchase supplies, or travel to Quincy. While on hold, the animal is “reserved” for the approved adopters. We may continue to accept applications for an animal that is on hold, but he/she cannot be adopted by another family until the hold has expired. An animal can only be placed on hold after an application is approved. Generally, an animal is placed on hold for 48 hours.\nWhy do you charge so much for animals from the “pound”?\nThe Quincy Humane Society is NOT a pound. We are a non-profit, privately funded, no-kill animal shelter. Our animals stay with us until they get adopted. The adoption fee we charge offsets the services we provide for the animal. Animals adopted from us are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and seen by a veterinarian regularly. In most cases, we spend hundreds of dollars on each animal that stays with us. We do not make money off of adoptions.\nWhy are all your animals spayed or neutered?\nIt is a state law in Illinois that all animals adopted from an animal shelter are spayed or neutered before leaving. If it was not a state law, we would do it anyway. The country is facing a severe animal over-population problem, and spaying or neutering the pets that leave our facility ensures we do not contribute to that epidemic.\nWhy do so many of your dogs have age restrictions?\nAge restrictions are assigned to certain dogs to help protect the safety of both the dog and the family that may adopt it. Our animal care staff have closely examined the personalities of every dog, and any age restrictions assigned to a dog are meant as a guideline to help adopters determine which pet will best match the needs of their household.\nAt this time, there is no official waiting list for certain breeds. However, the variety of dogs we have available for adoption changes regularly and often includes many purebred dogs. We recommend checking our “Available Pets” page regularly to see what we have available each day. We encourage all individuals and families to adopt… not shop! If you are ready and anxious to invite your new furry friend into your home, websites like Pet Finder are a great tool to help you locate that particular breed that you are looking for.\nCan I fill out paperwork online?\nYes, we now have an online application available through the “Adopt” page on our website. You must have a Google account in order to fill it out. Once you have submitted it, the application will be emailed to our Adoption Manager and is processed like a regular application. Please make sure it is filled out completely in order for us to process it.\nAt the Quincy Humane Society, we love all of our animals. However, we know that some animals are more desirable to the public: small breed dogs, puppies, fluffy kittens and some popular breeds. Having a higher adoption fee for animals we know will go home quickly, enables us to care for the animals that become long-term residents.\nI live out of town. Can you ship an animal to me?\nWe do not ship animals. If you live out of town, we are more than willing to allow you to adopt if you can make the trip to Quincy to meet the animal. In some cases, you may fax your adoption application to us and we can complete an interview over the phone so we may place an animal on hold to give you time to travel.
Understanding the relationship between landscape and the dynamic nature of wetlands is essential to the assessment of wetland functions and values. Wetlands are constantly adjusting to disturbances occurring within them and within the surrounding landscape. It is important to recognize to what extent various disturbances affect wetlands when assessing disturbance and impact, and when considering wetland protection options (Clearwater et al., 1998).\nDirect impacts result from disturbances that occur within the wetland. Common direct impacts to wetlands include filling, grading, removal of vegetation, building construction and changes in water levels and drainage patterns. Most disturbances that result in direct impacts to wetlands are controlled by State and Federal wetland regulatory programs.\nIndirect impacts result from disturbances that occur in areas outside of the wetland, such as uplands, other wetlands or waterways. Common indirect impacts include influx of surface water and sediments, fragmentation of a wetland from a contiguous wetland complex, loss of recharge area, or changes in local drainage patterns. Given that most indirect impacts are beyond the authority of State and Federal wetland regulatory programs, wetland protection can be provided by a watershed management plan under local implementation.\nCumulative impacts are those impacts resulting from combined direct and indirect impacts to the wetland over time.\nHuman influences have caused significant changes in the function and quality of many wetlands. These changes have resulted from alteration of the physical, chemical and biological components of wetland ecosystems. Widespread land development and clearing have caused increased erosion in uplands areas leading to increased sedimentation in lowland wetlands. This increased accumulation of sediment can alter the chemical and hydrologic regime of the wetlands in a relatively short time. Other human acitivities which can have lasting effects on wetland ecosystems include stream channelization, dam construction, discharge of industrial wastes and municipal sewage (point source pollution) and runoff urban and agricultural areas (non-point source pollution). These activities contribute to changes in the flood regime of wetlands and the input and cycling of nutrients.\nMaryland's wetlands have been traditionally used for hunting, trapping, fishing, berry and timber harvest, bird watching and livestock grazing. Most traditional uses of wetlands do not impose permanent impacts, with the exception of livestock grazing and timber harvest which can affect the functions such as water quality and habitat. Human uses of wetlands, such as drainage for agriculture and filling for industrial or residential development, can impose irreversible impacts to wetlands. In the past, the societal and ecological value of wetlands were not widely recognized and many wetlands were destroyed. (from Wetlands of Maryland, Tiner and Burke, 1995).\nHowever, recent trends in federal and State laws governing wetlands have provided for preservation, protection, restoration and creation of wetlands throughtout Maryland.\nIn Maryland, the gradual rise of sea level, approximately 3 to 4 millimeters per year, has the potential to both increase wetland acreage by periodically flooding low-lying uplands and to destroy vegetated wetlands by increasing water depths.\nCoastal marshes and swamps are particularly vulnerable to rising sea level because they are mostly within a few feet of sea level. As the sea rises, the outer boundary of these wetlands will erode, and new wetlands will form inland as previously dry areas are flooded by the higher water levels. The amount of newly created wetlands, however, will be much smaller than the area of wetlands that are lost. The amount of dryland within a few feet above the wetlands is much less than the area of wetlands that would be lost if sea level rises a few feet. Moreover, developed areas will often be protected with bulkheads, dikes, and other structures that keep new wetlands from forming inland. Along sandy beaches, like wetland shores, property owners often erect these structures to halt erosion. Although these structuress protect property, they can eliminate beaches, particularly bay beaches, which are usually less than 10 feet wide. Beaches are used for fishing, recreation, transportation, and landing small crafts, in addition to their environmental importance in the evolution of coastal wetlands. (from: www.epa.gov).\nThe dry land, or uplands, within a few feet above high tide includes forests, farms, low parts of some port cities, parts of deltas, and the bay sides of barrier islands. Some of the most economically important vulnerable areas are the recreational resorts on the "coastal barriers" of the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. In many cases, the ocean-front block of these islands is 5 to 10 feet above high tide; but the bay sides are often less than two feet above high water and regularly flooded. Erosion threatens the high ocean sides of these densely developed islands and is generally viewed as a more immediate problem than inundation of their low bay sides. Many ocean shores are currently eroding 1 to 4 feet per year. Coastal engineers generally estimate that a 1 foot rise in sea level will cause beaches to erode 0.5 to 1 feet from New England to Maryland, 2 feet along the Carolinas, 1 to 10 feet along the Florida coast, and 2 to 4 feet along the California coast. Because many US recreational beaches are less than 100 feet wide at high tide, even a 1 foot rise in sea level would threaten homes in these areas. (from: www.epa.gov).\nMore information about Sea Level Rise in Maryland.\nChanging climate also increases the vulnerability of coastal areas to flooding and erosion. A higher sea level raises the flood level from a storm of a given severity. A 3-foot rise in sea level (for example) would enable a 15-year storm to flood many areas that today are only flooded by a 100-year storm. The Federal Emergency Management Agency has estimated that a rise in sea level of one foot would increase the size of the 100-year floodplain in the United States from 19,500 square miles in 1990 to 23,000 square miles, and increase flood damages (and hence flood insurance rates) by 36-58 percent. Coastal flooding is also exacerbated by increasing rainfall intensity. Along tidal rivers and in extremely flat areas, floods can be caused by storm surges from the sea or by river surges.\nA Method for the Assessment of Wetland Function, Fugro East, Inc., 1995, for Department of Natural Resources.\nMaryland Department of the Environment.\nGovernments, Clearwater et al., 1998, for Maryland Department of the Environment.
The aim of the Network of Excellence on Digital Libraries (DLs) is to provide an open context in which an international research agenda for future research activities in the digital library domain can be developed and continuously updated. It will constitute a reference point for all DL projects funded by the 5th FP-IST, stimulating the exchange of experience and know-how in this multidisciplinary domain, and will also establish close contacts with relevant application communities. It will make testbeds available, facilitate their interoperability, and provide mechanisms for the evaluation of models, techniques, approaches, and the exchange of open-source software components. It will contribute to the definition of relevant standards. Appropriate take-up models will be studied to facilitate the exploitation of the new DL technologies in the industrial/commercial environment. A network of links with the international DL research community will be created.
Florida authorities were recently tasked with handling an extremely tragic hoarding case in Highlands County. A former animal control officer is being charged with 72 counts of animal cruelty after several pets were found in unsafe, unhealthy conditions in her home.\nThe animals have been removed, and those that were healthy enough to be adopted have already found new homes!\nA few of the dogs have even found families with the rescuers who helped save them from their nightmare. Highlands County Sheriff’s Office employees have adopted a few of the pets and taken them home to live happier lives.\n“Several of the dogs rescued from the animal hoarding case in Avon Park earlier this month have found new homes with HCSO employees!\nDeputies serving a search warrant at the home in Avon Park described the situation as a horrible tragedy. There were 72 pets found in the home, but only 49 of those animals were still alive. Cages were stacked throughout the home, and some were left wandering. Officers said the smell was so bad they needed to take breaks and use respirators to breathe. The home had no running water and the pets were malnourished and dirty. Fortunately, none of them will ever have to live in those conditions again.\nThe pets have been taken in and are recieving medical care at the Hardee Animal Rescue Team in Wauchula, Florida. You can help by donating, fostering or adopting with HART – learn more about HART at hardeeanimalrescueteam.com.\nThe woman who owns the home has not been living there since November. She is currently in jail with her bond set at $72,000.

From very early in my academic education, I have been interested in natural sciences, especially mathematics. As a student interested in solving problems, I enjoyed being a member of the school’s math and physics contest team.\nUpon recommendation from my teachers, I applied and got selected into the most prestigious high school in former Yugoslavia – ‘Mathematical Gymnasium’. Following my passion for natural sciences I found myself at a highly recognized technical school in my country – the Faculty of Electrical Engineering at the University of Belgrade (www.etf.rs) where I earned a MS degree in Applied Physics.\nAlong with my academic education I discovered another passion – teaching. I started tutoring with strong belief that math can be accessible to all students if presented in a suitable format that matches the student’s way of accepting logical thinking.\nSince moving with my family to the US I have continued working with my own children and their school friends helping them understanding deeper math concepts which require serious logical thinking. It has been a rewarding experience seeing their progress and how they were able to connect with real life math problems and have fun at the same time!\nThis accomplishment inspired me to go further and share my passion at Archimedes School where I want to get young students excited about solving problems while developing critical reasoning and analytical skills, fostering self confidence and motivation.
NOIDA :– Its that time of the year where every school is organizing its Annual Fests before the annual exams. Billabong High International School in Noida, organized its Annual Science Festival and Club Culmination “MATRIX” today.\nMATRIX is a two days event, that will be taking place from Friday, February to Saturday, February 9, 2019.\nTo inaugurate the Science Fest, Swami Shantatmananda from RamaKrishna Mission, Delhi,was present as one of the Chief Guests.\nToday, the annual day was graced by exhibitions from students on various topics and themes.\nBillabong High International School’s principal, Sharmila Chatterjee said “that the event is a platform for the children to showacase their talents in the area of their interest. Students from preschool to 11 standard took part in this function and will present their work which they have been doing from last 1 year”.\n“As we know, a healthy mind, body and soul is the key to success. One of the Sustainable Development Goals established by the United Nations is ‘Health and Well- Being”.\n“Today we have organized an exhibition and tomorrow there will be proper stalls for food, games and fun activities for the children as well as the parents”, she added.\nOn Saturday, February 9, 2019, the Annual Fest will be open to all, with number of stalls present for food, drinks, health, hand moulds, games etc.

Most applications should use the Permission Manifest to manage permissions.\nHowever, some applications may have an unpredictable structure which makes the normal Permission Manifest difficult to use. In this case, a rule-based approach using the Permission Manifest Manager may be more suitable.\nThe Permission Manifest Manager node type creates one or more manifests for nodes in the application. Each manifest is generated by a node known as a permission root, and manages the permissions of that node and all the nodes within it, except for nodes that are themselves permission roots.\nCreate one or more roles.\nCreate one or more permission manifest rules.\nIndicate what nodes you want to act as permission roots.\nCreate a permission manifest manager.\nIn your application library, create roles using Permission Manifest Role.\nEach role has a name and a description, and a list of users, user groups or user lists of people with that role. See Role user specification for a description of how to specify users.\nIn your application library, create permission manifest rules using Permission Manifest Rule.\nRule Tag List that lists tags any of which will trigger the rule.\nRule applicability which describes which nodes the permissions should be applied to, relative to the tagged node.\nPermission types which lists the permission types that should be granted.\nRoles which lists the roles to which the permissions should be granted.\nTo make a node a permission root, add the field Make permission manifest root to the node type. During derivation, this field will search for a manifest for the node, and if none is present will create one in the permission manifest manager identified by the binding "permissionManifestManager".\nWithin your application structure, create an instance of Permission Manifest Manager. Link to each of your permission manifest rules.\nMake it available using the binding "permissionManifestManager".\nSet Rule Tag List to Permission manifest manager.\nSet Rule applicability to Apply the rule to the tagged node.\nSet Roles to identify all the users who may create permission root nodes.\nA permission manifest manager does not automatically create a manifest for itself. Create an instance of Managed Permission Manifest within the permission manager and set its Permission manifest root to the permission manifest manager itself, to action the above permissions.\nIt usually makes sense to create a prototype Permission Manifest Manager in your application library code which lists all the rules, and inherit from that in each application. This allows you to change the rules without modifying the application structure.\nIf you change the rules after creating a permission manifest, you need to execute the permission manifest manager with the "action" parameter set to "refresh" to force each of the manifests to pick up the changes. You can do this programatically, or by using the button on the permission manifest manager.\nA typical packaged application will need a couple more areas of setup.\nIf the application creates user groups during setup, you will need to refresh the permission manifest manager (by executing it, setting the "action" parameter to "refresh") to pick up the new user groups. You can do this in a post-install script.\nYou are likely to need manifests for your own library code. You can do this by creating a Permission Manifest manually. Holding the permission manifest inside the permission manifest manager means it will be refreshed when the permission manifest manager is refreshed.\nYou can also use the feature in the installer to inherit from the subscription manifest, and then set a rule to grant use of that manifest to the appropriate users.\nThe Make permission manifest root processing creates manifests of type Managed Permission Manifest. The manifests link back to the permission root, and use the rules defined on the permission manifest manager to derive the required permissions.\nYou can use Managed Permission Manifest without Make permission manifest root. For example, you could use a node of type Package Synchronization to maintain a set of manifests within a manifest manager. This can be useful to add permissions to an existing structure without modifying the node types.\nIf you do this, you need to be cautious of node ownership. Make permission manifest root always creates manifest nodes under the ownership of the permission root, and the managed permission manifests have additional logic to delete and recreate themselves to make sure ownership stays the in line if ownership of the permission root changes. This logic doesn't apply if Make permission manifest root isn't used, and you will need to make sure that the manifest are owned by users who have the necessary authority to grant permissions.
Appreciate the edit, no trolling intended. I guess the guys took a long weekend. Thanks for the clarification. Have a good day all!\nThe "upkeep" is part of the "rest" of the changes isnt it? I feel like this guy was just online yesterday.... and he has no home now. If im wrong and the 3 day is in place and I read it wrong, thats another story, but im fairly sure this guys active.\nOnly thing protecting them was being offline on the claim, they have had the claim for months, well over the 3 day protection. Thats my point, the activity timer isnt in place yet.\nWe have also, simply because we have more people on more hours and had a neighbor or 2 we didnt get along with so they would def be doing it to us if they woke up first. Before we were at an standoff and forced to deal, now we were able to slip in this window of change and likely chase someone out of the game...under the guise of doing it before they did it to us.\n*Edit I misunderstood the upkeep timer, I still think my overall point is valid, but not in this case. Thanks for clarification. *** Why the insistence on releasing half finished mechanics? Why not release mechanic changes at once? Half finished aging mechanic making the 1 way to deal with it entirely broken to deal with in which you count on the lag to slow down ai to sneak by as you gauntlet run to the finish line ( not engaging game play). Now a half modified claim system that means alot of people are waking up in a few hours or getting off work to find out they no longer have bases.... but dont worry the "rest" of the changes to fix that are coming "soon". Meaning they wont be able to get their land back when you release the changes. These "windows" of carelessness are where the problems happen. Especially in a pve environment, you are creating holes that allow the trolls and grief driven pvers chance to cause havoc. The full picture of changes sound great, releasing it in pieces is going to, and has already, only made things worse. Love the game, I love the work you all do, I just dont understand half finished mechanics. Could be a very good reason and im happy to be educated. Outside looking in though, seems like a bad habbit. Happy Wednesday!\nSays the one that laughs at an explanation to their issue and drones on making other pointless request? Go play minecraft. I care about you!\nFigured out the issue, SOMEHOW, they claimed one of our water claims, and it magicly claimed our small ship yard, thats within 3 of our claims. p.s. paint arrows are hard.\nWe are now unable to build in our unfinished base, the territory is directly behind the base, so theres no question its in our territory, We can access doors and everything else, we are just unable to place things. Example attached. Apparently last night noticed a bunch of guys standing on the roof of our unfinished base, they wandered over and the group took off. When they opened the small gate to go back inside, tons of undead spawned in the base (or were already spawned.. not sure). Once they were dispersed, we noticed this issue. Is there a chance the other peoples chest is buried under our base and acting as a foundation preventing us from building? I quickly scanned through forum and didn't see anything that looked related.

Sound morphing is a sound synthesis from two source sounds. The result possesses features of both of them.\nOne signal is supposed to have wide spectrum. Let's call this signal a bearer.\nThe other signal applies its features upon the first one. Let's call this signal modulaton.\nSelect Bearer tab and load the first signal from existing wave-file.\nSelect Modulation tab and load the second signal.\nPress F5 or select corresponding menu item to morph these signals.\nClick Play button to hear the result.\nChange the functions that control the influence source signals have on the result, simply by drawing on the Balance and Compress graphs.\nNote, that the duration of the result is equal to the one of the bearer. Modulation is stretched to match it.\nYou can save and load the mix control functions in a *.mix file.\nThis was implemented in a couple of days. I think it's been too fast to become good. Still I hope it's better than nothing.
I’ve been contemplating for a while now on getting an interactive mirror for myself; till now i haven’t found the right one with the features and specifics i want. This has led me to potentially design an interactive mirror for myself that i hope to create this summer or when i have some free time. On that note; below are some interaction modalities that i considered and pros and cons associated to each.\nTouch(multi-touch) – Touch is an important method of interaction as it allows for physical tactility of interactive objects. Furthermore users have become accustomed to interacting with digital object with touch.\nHowever i see a couple of issues with touch interaction.\nMirrors are notorious for getting finger prints and oils on them cleaning them regularly can potentially be a problem.\nTouch interaction adds breaks to your morning routine you physically have to touch a button or open an app etc.\nThis is not to say touch interaction shouldn’t be present, it should and it’s a must for reasons i’ve outlined above. But what i mean is that touch interaction shouldn’t be the primarily interaction method.\nGestural Control – Gestural control is something that isn’t seen quite as often as modality for HCI, however it could it potentially be useful as a method of interaction it would eliminate one of the problems with touch.\nHowever its lack of precision for interaction with buttons and other UI components it may not be the best method of interaction.\nAnd it still affects your routine as you have to wave your hands around to interact with the display.\nVoice Recognition – Voice is something that really unique and has recently started to become really accurate in recent years and could potentially serve as a primary method of interaction with an interactive display which could be complemented by the precision of touch interaction.\nIt would circumvent the problems associated with touch and should serve as a fluid method of interaction.\nHowever like with gestural control it lacks precision, touch interaction could supplement the precision aspect of this interaction modality.\nOne thing to note here is the primary use case i’ve selected for this interactive mirror is the morning getting ready routine. However in different use cases one or the other methods of interaction may prove to be a better solution. One such example that comes to mind is in a dressing room at a clothing boutique, where gestural control can be used to swipe through various styles of clothing.\nYou are currently reading Thoughts on Interaction Modalities for Interactive Mirrors at Interactive IO & More.

The marina of Mikkeli celebrated in 2014 its 150 anniversary. At the same time when the six steamers honored the anniversary of the marina, there was hold also the traditional fish market in the marina. Those steam ships which arrived to Mikkeli, were called Warkaus, Ahti, Lalli, Satu, Puhois and Toimi 2. My personal favorite is the smallest Lalli. It is so cute. Which is Yours?\nEl puerto deportivo de Mikkeli celebraba en 2014 su 150 aniversario.

Ao mesmo tempo em que os seis barcos a vapor honravam o aniversário da marina, tinham lugar também o mercado tradicional de peixe na marina. Esses navios a vapor que chegaram a Mikkeli, chamavam Warkaus, Ahti, Lalli, Satu, Puhois e Toimi 2. O meu favorito é o menor Lalli. Ele é tão bonito. Qual é o seu?\nIt is a difficult choice, but I would choose AHTI. Excellent record of the day.\nVery nice to read Your comment and Your choice. Thank You.\nThank you. I am glad that You loved my photos.\nLively views and splendid photos my dear Matti!\nA big hug to you and Anja…..\nThank You Anna. I am glad you love my photos from my hometown.\nA number of steamboat, it is great to feel history.\nIt is a good photo of the harbor, which is last to up.\nYes, these present history indeed, although there was not so many steam ships. We have so many big lake areas that to visit to Mikkeli was not possible.\nI like Mikkeli, beautiful place.\nThank you. Because You said Lalli, I can teld that the owner told to me that it took for him about one year to build it! I think that he is quite a fantastic steam ship builder.\nEach steam ships looks great.\nMy personal favorite is … maybe SATU.\nThank you visiting my post and telling You favorite in you kind comment. Satu is beautiful indeed.\nThese steam ships are producing a kind of cosy atmosphere. A bit of slowness, of comfort and more. To see them on your beautiful lake makes it something very special! I like the boat “Lalli” a lot! But how tiny in comparison to the other boats! ^^ I first recognized it, when I compared your photographs showing the different boats underpassing the bridge. What a difference in size! Whereas the first boats seem to be old ships I wonder whether the “Lalli” is a new one? Or did they rebuild it completely?\nI can’t decide which one is the most beautiful but apart from the funny little “Lalli”. Different choice … but I really like the hulk (form) of the one called “Warkaus”.\nThanks for showing again such exceptional subjects on your photo blog, Matti!\nThank you commenting so nicely my steam ship post. I am very happy that you saw my photos and the place where I photographed them is quite near my home and one of our many walking routes pass there. Lalli – the owner told to me that he has built is and the Project took about one year. My hat off.\nExcellent picturing of the visit! The steam ships are so colorful and bring us back to the “good old days” 🙂 My favorite is the tiny steam boat, Lalli.\nThank you Tiny. It was a great pleasure to red Your kind comment. Thank You.\nmais les anciens bateaux à vapeurs le sont encore plus.\nCroisière de la Saint-Jean .\nLe bateau S/S Suomi est de l’an 1906. Merci beaucoup.\nThey are all so great, it is hard to choose a favorite. The Lalli is so cute! But I like the colors of the Puhois a lot. It must have been so fun to watch them go by!\nVery nice comment. Lalli was made by the owner in one year! S/S Puhois is from the year 1925. It was indeed great fun and what was the best in my home town. Thank You.\nMade in on year- what a beautiful project!\nChissà quanto è stato bello vederli tutti insieme e poi fare tante foto.\nBravissimo e grazie per la condivisione.\nGreat photos! I love your close-ups of the Lalli!\nThank you for Your kind comment. Lalli is cute!\nThis looks like such a lovely day, they all look like fun! I like to get out on the water as often as possible. In Norfolk we have the Norfolk Broads where you can hire days boats but nothing quite on this scale!\nHow nice comment You wrote here. Thank You. To get on the water sounds great. In my home town, there are during summer cruises and we love them.\nTes visites sur mon blog sont toujours un plaisir pour moi.\nPasses un très bon week-end! Bisous.\nWhat a great event and perfect weather. Very well captured.\nI am glad that You saw my photos from my hometown and this event. Thank You.\nI give my vote to the steamboat “Ahti”.\nThank You. Ahti was built in 1892!!! She is a real old Lady!\nI like mini steam engine.\n↓This is my steam engine.\nI am glad that You visited my blog and left Your kind comment. Thank You.\nThe Marina of Mikkeli is beautiful… I live close to the river as well and it looks lovely, but it is cold now to enjoy as much as I do when I go to walk in summer!\nAll these ships are so cute, but my favorite is the Lalli. Lalli is pretty.\nThank You commenting so nicely. I agree that Lalli is cute.\nJe suis ravi que mes photos vous plaisent.\nVotre si gentil me réchauffe le cœur.

Thank You commenting so nicely.\nJ’aime la plus petite aussi!\nJe vous remercie vivement pour votre si gentil commentaire. Merci beaucoup.\nQué maravilla vivir esta experiencia, muchísimas gracias por compartirla y hacer que disfrutemos también con esta fiesta de los barcos. Todos ellos son mis favoritos.\n¡Cuán maravilloso comentario! que comenzó mi día tan bien.\nWonderful comment. Thank You. Think that the small one is self-made! The owner must be very skillful.\nSounds great Andy. 🙂 Thank you commenting. Have a great day!
Real estate is one of the most misunderstood business functions for a retail chain.\nFundamentally it underpins your entire trading operations, will be your second largest expense after wages, and physically represents your brand statement to consumers.\nSo why do so many retail businesses misunderstand its importance?\nThe first step in answering this question is to understand what exactly is ‘retailer real estate’, then we can look at how to measure it and determine what success looks like for your business.\nRetailer real estate primarily includes five key disciplines – negotiation/broking, lease accounting, lease administration, construction, and legal.\nEven a small chain (less than 50 stores) should have resources in these areas, even as consultants. Medium and larger retailers should have at least one person in each of these five roles within the real estate department.\nThe majority of small and medium sized retailers I’ve seen don’t understand the value of these roles or sometimes even the need for a department at all. They think it costs too much, but without this expertise it’s costing them more than they even know.\nLet’s take a look at this in some detail.\nIn order to quantify the value, we need to formulate a method for measuring real estate performance, and for most retailers this is where the challenge begins. I recommend the following areas of real estate performance management.\nMany retailers confuse the cost of occupancy with what they’re being charged, however, the two are not entirely the same.\nOccupancy cost calculations should only include charges based directly on the premises, not on consumption. Commonly, in a shopping centre, this would include base rent, outgoings, statutory charges and a promotion levy. Charges like electricity, air conditioning and security are consumption based and thus an operational expense.\nI would also argue that storage rent and extended trade are operational costs as they often fluctuate on performance and are as a result, not under the control of the real estate team.\nHaving established a measure of occupancy, let’s look at what analysis should be undertaken. It is common to measure occupancy cost as a snapshot figure, i.e. the cost today, the cost per square metre, or costs versus previous.\nTo enable a comparison across the portfolio, occupancy cost should be represented as a ratio of turnover performance, calculated as a percentage of the sales over the previous year of trade (i.e. Moving Annual Turnover).\nCreating benchmarks is the best way to measure your real estate team’s management of occupancy. Based on dollar per sqm and Moving Annual Turnover (MAT) percentage, an occupancy cost report should highlight an acceptable performance range and the relative performance of each store.\nBy further analysing these benchmark reports, more detailed real estate telemetry can then be delivered, built to highlight and track occupancy performance by inputs such as landlord, location type, region, expiry profile and sales volume.\nValues can vary greatly between different retail business models, however the method of analysis is consistent.\nIn addition to analysing the affordability of real estate through occupancy cost benchmarking, measuring the productiveness of your floor space is just as important.\nThrough inferior design, mismanaged construction, and poorly negotiated agreements a retail chain can be overpaying for excessive space. In reverse, if a retailer has too little floor space store performance will be constrained.\nThe best measurement for tenancy productivity is MAT divided by the trading area of the store – commonly referred to as sales/sqm.\nSimilar to occupancy cost you should be able to report on what an optimum productivity level is for your retailing business and measure the relative performance of each store within the portfolio.\nA productivity level below optimal will often identify a store which is an under trader and potentially could benefit from a reduction in floor space, whereas a high level of productivity commonly results from an over trader where either there is not enough floor space and sales are being lost, or where an additional site opportunity may exist.\nShopping centre landlords actively track the productivity of your store and will understandably use it to their advantage in negotiations – you should be ahead of the game in measuring and analysing real estate performance this way.\nA strong real estate team will add significant value in negotiating lease deals and renewals. In addition to base rent, negotiation should be undertaken for other charges, lease incentives, fee reductions, and trading rebates.\nOften the provisions of an agreement negotiated by your real estate team will have a significant impact on costs over the term of a lease.\nIf, say, a percentage rent clause is wound back or a rental rebate or kick out provision is included, then costs can be significantly reduced in both strong and weaker trading periods.\nTo ensure you measure the transaction value of your real estate team effectively you should not only analyse the upfront value of the deal in terms of base rent savings or incentives, but also the full impact of all commercial clauses over the lifetime of an agreement.\nFor a chain retailer, real estate underpins every offline sale it makes – without it there are no sales.\nEach lease is finite and the expectation of renewal a luxury you should not assume.\nEven small retail chains should have an active schedule of real estate agreements expiring or with an option in the next twelve months, even longer for free standing or strip locations. Negotiating a new lease with a month or two left is dealing in the red zone.\nIf your portfolio includes multiple sites with the same landlord it is also a smart tactic to have the complete picture of what else you could be negotiating at that time, so your expiry profiling should also be by landlord.\nIn assessing the performance of a real estate team, local or operational matters aside, triggers can be based on the number of expired leases, leases in the red zone (expiry period will vary by business) and the proportion of renewals completed early.\nIn terms of occupancy, outgoings are probably your largest cost next to base rent. Australia boasts some of the most expensively run shopping malls in the world and I strongly believe it’s due to the lack of questioning by specialty tenants.\nOutgoings are a charge unlike other real estate charges. It is a recovery of expenses to operate a building based on the proportion you occupy of that building.\nThroughout each budget period the size, composition, and costs of the centre will vary and your real estate team should know if the landlord’s reconciliation at year’s end is accurate for the entire year.\nThere are numerous examples in Australia and New Zealand of landlords inadvertently or otherwise including non-recoverable expenses or simply miscalculating a tenant’s proportion.\nTo measure your real estate team you should seek an annual audit of at least 10 per cent of outgoings statements in the portfolio, at a minimum. Using this schedule, over an average life cycle of a lease, one in two will have had an outgoings audit completed.\nThis story originally appeared in Inside Retail Magazine.
