UK financial advisers are encouraging clients to turn to multi-asset investing as their sentiment towards the asset class hits an all time high, according to research from Baring Asset Management.
Barings' study found that more than a third (36%) of 114 UK financial advisers are recommending multi-asset products to clients as a response to market volatility.
More than a quarter of intermediaries say they are 'very favourable' towards multi-asset products, the highest number since Barings began the research in 2010.
Barings' latest Investment Barometer also shows a particular interest in multi-asset growth and income funds. Nearly half (46%) of the advisers surveyed reported plans to increase exposure to multi-asset growth funds – a 16% increase compared to research by the firm in 2014 – and two in five intermediaries said they intend to increase client exposure to multi-asset income funds over the next 12 months.
Rod Aldridge, head of UK wholesale distribution at Barings, says the increasing popularity of multi-asset investing in the UK is driven by the fact that multi-asset strategies aim to deliver equity-like returns with less risk than holding an equity-only portfolio.
Aldridge predicts an increasing need for products that are designed to provide a regular income while minimising risk in light of UK pension reforms. A rule change means retirees from defined contribution funds can drawdown their pensions in different ways, including by leaving their fund invested and drawing an income from it.

I like the way I can combine Geo-spatial mapping with CAD.
I think that when editing shape files to create new amended data it is not as intuitive as other GIS packages (like QGIS or Global Mapper).
AutoCAD Map is an excellent solution for working with GIS Geo-spatial information in a CAD environment,
The ability to create Geo-referenced solutions and then to be able to add AEC CAD data to them is very beneficial from a business perspective.
I use this software for 10+ years. Very intuitive tools and relativity easy to use.
Software has limitation of flexibility as ArcMap which I also use. If customer need dwg files I can convert mxd to dwg and back. AutoCAD crashes without reason relatively often. Better safe your edits consistently to avoid loosing data. Can not make profile for wastewater lines or any - you need to buy AutoCAD Civil 3D, because AutoCAD Map 3D is a part of Civil 3D.
I am using this software for utility data such as water, wastewater, street, transportation, irrigation, storm water and other infrastructure purposes.
I have been in drafting and design for 25+ years. I have used other platforms such as Microstation. The company I currently work for, also uses ESRI products for our GIS mapping. However, out of all of the drafting products that I have tried, ACAD is the most user friendly and easiest to use drafting software on the market. The interface is very logical. It is easy for even a newbie to figure out. like other AutoCAD products it is used friendly
The software crashes sometimes without any warning making it risky to lose data.
Great Product, as with most other AutoDesk Products
We use Map for Civil Engineering Projects, Using imported backgrounds for exhibits
Now Autocad has everything in it. This makes me excited. This is the first software as a mechanical engineer/designer i learned and from then AutoCAD has transformed in a better way.
It has become more versatile.
The software has model-based GIS mapping capability that provides access to CAD and GIS data to support planning, design, and management.
The software crashes sometimes without any warning making it risky to lose data.
AutoCAD Map 3D is a must recommendation for the factory, plant layout for industries.
Access and manage GIS imagery, point cloud, and other data.
Helps in creating or modify data with powerful modeling tools.
Can create maps, and build topologies, factory , plant layouts.
The relative simplicity, as opposed to Civil, which has gone off the deep end, in my opinion. Sometimes it's just good to be able to create and edit drawings, and communicate them, without knowing everything in the universe about everything in the universe.
Map3D bridges the gap between a more complex 3D software I use; Vulcan, and the world of printing and sharing nice maps/diagrams.
The near impossibility to understand any of the 3D solid functions? I make 3D solids left and right and have no idea to translate them into Map3D. The "jargon used" for solids involves "rendering", "extrude faces" (wholly cow!), meshes, "faces-and-edges", NURBS (lol, again).
A solid is a solid or a triangulated set of faces, yes? A single face is not a solid, nor are several faces unless they have coincident points (triangles at least, eh? I noticed the meshes are triangles, eh?
If it stops now and avoids the "train crash" that Civil has become. Please leave a single, useful, simple ACAD for those of us who need a drawing and mapping medium to accomplish real world tasks.
Transferring real data between software to get it to software that can be used, QUICKLY, to solve real world problems. I work in mining.
I like that I can do most GIS activities and import SID, shp files to my existing Autocad files. Without needing an ESRI package.
It seems to crash and lockup sometimes, when loading large SID files. A few bugs in the 2017 version.
This is a great resource, in lue of ESRI products and a much lower cost. It will enable you to merge your GIS datasets into your exisitng Cad models, without relearning a new software.
Autocad GIS usage for an International Airport. Were behind the curve in implementing GIS, and this will suffice until we can on-board the ESRI products.

I recently read a good post about how to develop your own black & white film at home, and that set me thinking. I develop all my own film because if you really want to understand the photographic process you have to be involved in the whole process.
Tripping the shutter is half the battle and some of the most important decisions affecting the final look of an image take place in the processing stage and so, I think, are too important to be left to Boots or Snappy Snaps, or whatever your local lab is called.
I started to develop my own film after having taken a photography course at night school many years ago. The teacher recommended I buy a Mamiya C330 medium format TLR, if I was serious about landscape photography, so I did.
A month later I set off to Corsica to walk the Haute Route du Corse which is one of the toughest long distance hikes in Europe - two weeks of magnificent scenery but killer climbs and descents. So I packed my ruck sack with tent, food, stove etc., etc., heavy camera, even heavier tripod, quite abit of film, filters, spare lens and spent the next two weeks sweating blood lugging the camera around, but taking what I hoped would be great photos and my first adventure in medium format landscape photography.
On my return to London I hobbled off to Jessops to get my film developed and two weeks later I picked the films up. You can imagine how pleased I was when I tried to print from the negatives only to find that all of them were covered with scratches - some negs looked as if a cat with very sharp claws and ice skates had been dancing on them.
That was over ten years ago and it wasn't until I invested in Photoshop a couple of years ago that I was able to get anything useable from those films
At that point I realised that I would never again let anybody else touch my film again.
The excellent blog post I alluded to above got me thinking and I decided to write down why I feel so strongly that, if you want to be serious about your landscape photography, you should develop your own film. You can read the full article here.
Finally, here's a picture of Corsica
I walked up to the highest point in the photograph, down to the lake and up the other side, where I took this photo, and then down into the next valley - which took a long, back breaking day with a camera that weighed as much as a small car. Lovely view though!

So here's my list of what I want to achieve:
- I want clear and even textured skin
- I want to be able to walk a mile without being knackered
- I want to improve my back pain by increasing my core strength
- I want to sleep well and wake up refreshed
- I want to feel more healthy and eat more nourishing food
- I want to improve my general wellbeing and mental health
I'm not gonna put a time frame on this as I feel like that's not the purpose of it. It's about permanent change and living life in a way that is good for me. There will be a separate post for each of the items on the list, detailing my plans and any specific products, techniques, recipes or whatever I use to help get me there. I will also give regular updates for those of you that are interested and I would love to hear any tips or opinions in the comments!

Do your friends and family need last-minute holiday gift ideas for you? Time is ticking! No matter what your holiday traditions, the season always has an air of festive fun. And, no, the fun is not limited to children. In fact, our 3D mice have some of our Twitter followers acting like kids playing in a candy shop.
See what we mean? (It's OK you got our name wrong, Chiel, it's the holidays so we forgive you!)
If you need a little extra help to ensure you get what you really want this year, we created the following email template that you can customize and send a family member or friend.
It covers all of the bases, including benefits and a list of reasons why 3Dconnexion 3D mice are a gift worth giving. Now there's no excuse not to give or get a 3D mouse!
Navigate the New Year in 3D Style
I've made my [INSERT HOLIDAY] list, and checked it twice. What's at the top? One of 3Dconnexion's 3D mice.
There are five different models to choose from, but the one I want to unwrap this holiday is [INSERT MOUSE]. With a 3D mouse, I can dominate my 3D designs in 2013, which will have me caroling all year long. Plus, we all like to feel a sense of well-being, especially around the holidays. Here's how a 3D mouse can help.
What makes a 3D mouse a great gift?
It works with my 3D applications, giving me the assurance I need (I know this because I checked here).
A 3D mouse enables me to simultaneously pan, zoom and rotate, intuitively and naturally, so I'll feel enlightened and more connected to my 3D content.
I won't need to move or click my standard mouse or tablet nearly as much, which will provide me with comfort, and reduce the risk of injuries like RSI.
Assimilating a 3D mouse into my daily activity doesn't take long, and will leave me content. I'll soon wonder how I ever worked without one.
All of the above add up to a fast, comfortable and enjoyable 3D experience so I'll have more time to spend with friends and family—and gain peace of mind.
See what some 3D mouse users had to say about what it would be like working without their beloved 3Dconnexion 3D mouse.
Don't wait until the night before Christmas! Take a look at the 3Dconnexion Shop today to place your order. Make sure to order by December 21st if you want me to receive it before January!
Happy holidays,
Which Mouse Fits Your Style Best?
If you're not sure which mouse fits you best, be sure to check out our full line of products, or contact us for advice, so you can let everyone know which one you want to unwrap this year.
Cheers to You and Yours This Holiday Season
From the entire 3Dconnexion team, we wish you happy holidays, and hope that all through the house, not a creature will be stirring, except a 3Dconnexion 3D mouse!

Swimming in Grace
Without program I would think that people's outsides are their insides, that my best thinking is very good and that self-will can get me whatever I need.
What's good about today is I have a fresh chance every moment of my life.
9 comments:
I really like what you said about how without a program, you would think that peoples' outsides were their insides.ReplyDelete
Thank you for sharing this magical and powerful and uterly genuine gem with us today, Carol.ReplyDelete
Aloha, Sister

"Would never have believed it was possible to have a spiritual fellowship that runs on people power, higher power and service."ReplyDelete
PLUS, look! My computer is named "Highr Power IV". We've only a keyboard, monitor, and a box of little bitty parts to share all we have with others who do the same. We don't even SEE one another! What has god wrought????
This resonates with me. Being on a program helps me stay in the moment and focus on myself. It is easier to let others go their own way and live their own life. I would not go back to how things were for anything.ReplyDelete
This is how life is meant to be lived.
People power, higher power and service.ReplyDelete
I LOVE that!
Good to know we actually can get a do-over in this life isn't it?ReplyDelete
I agree. I agree. And for me - to take it a step further - without program I WOULD BE DEAD.ReplyDelete
Thank God I found recovery and people just like you.
I like so much what you said about what would happen without the program. How true. I am so glad to be part of a group who is trying to live life to the fullest in peace and harmony.ReplyDelete
Thank you everyone!ReplyDelete
To Steve, it is amazing how some pieces of metal bring us together, it's a small jump of trust to believe that absolutely anything is possible.
To Ginny, a do over is exactly what I feel like I got. Who would think that I would be handed a new pair of glasses in my 40's and 50's that would allow me to see everything differently?

Workshop Programme
Our workshop sessions are deliberately designed to help executives, technology leads and operational specialists adapt to market-led changes and overcome a realm of typical challenges that they will face as they look to either upskill or grow their departments. Whether the focus is delivering financial inclusion through payments, driving automated know-your-customer compliance through regulatory technology or a step by step guide on the path financial institutions should apply to adopting cloud-based technology, the FinTech Connect Live workshop hosts are there to help you achieve your departmental goals, and will explore the following issues in-depth through 8 workshops over the 2 days. Lasting between 45 minutes to 1 hour, workshops give you an opportunity to really get to grips with a subject and fully consider what it could mean for your businesses' day-to-day operations.
Day One: Wednesday 6th December – Exhibition Floor
10:00 – 11:00 A simple guide to eliminating risk – how #regtech can safeguard your brand's reputation
After consulting firms specialised in Financial, Banking, Legal, Insurance and Gaming markets, Kristoff will be sharing the findings of what is leading to such markets being highly exposed to risk, not only regulatory risk but most importantly reputational risk. Issues that are currently being taken for granted, "a necessary evil that we have to live with". Issues that #regtech is addressing through automation. Throughout the workshop we shall be addressing how such technology is solving these issues and also asking participants to challenge us with other aspects that we haven't encountered to date!
Host: Kristoff Zammit Ciantar, CEO, Aqubix
11:15 – 12:15 Lessons learned from the Development and Deployment of a Mobile Payment Service based on HCE and tokenisation
Crédit Agricole is one of the first European banks to have launched a commercial version of a mobile payment service using a cloud-based payment/HCE solution. This solution is integrated into the application Ma Carte (My Card) and launched on April 4th 2017. It interfaces with 'Paylib', the French interbank proximity mobile payment brand.
This workshop will provide the opportunity to share feedback with the audience on business,
technological, innovation, and use case aspects on the project of developing a mobile payment service based on dejamobile HCE solution.
The following topics will be discussed:
- An outline of the technical architecture and challenges related to the implementation of a HCE solution at the heart of a big banking group payment system
- Overview of the security evaluation process and formal compliance requirements for HCE based mobile payment applications
- First feedback after the service launch
- R&D and Innovation i.e. wearables and blockchain
Hosts: Houssem Assadi, CEO and Ahmad Saif CTO, Dejamobile, Xavier Vaslin, Payment Lab Chief, Crédit Agricole and Barry Gilbert, Business Development Manager, UL

- Insight from NetSuite – the cloud industry pioneer
- Cloud software has become the de facto platform for businesses of all sizes. It frees organisations to innovate, grow and respond to change. It lets you focus on tomorrow, not today
- Cloud business software is helping businesses transform themselves and how can prepare to cope with – and drive – change, growth and innovation
Host: Bal Jutley, Strategic Sales Enablement, EMEA, Oracle Netsuite
15:00 – 16:00 Biometrics Decrypted: Using smart authentication to win the payment race
In five short years, biometrics has jumped off the pages of science fiction and into the pockets of millions of consumers everywhere. It's advanced as a convenient tool for millions of smartphones and bank cards, enabling everything from online payments to money transfers has raised awareness of the potential for friction-free authentication to drive conversion online, and increase transaction volumes in-store. Join us to discuss the findings of new research analysing the leading players in biometric authentication for banking and payments, what's driving acceptance and get the latest insight on the winning strategies that will turn a step toward biometric technology into a great leap forward in payment authentication.

The workshop will cover best practices in setting up a cross platform strategy, using SEO, Inbound/Content and Paid Activity to drive qualified traffic and leads to your product and services. We'll outline structure and process needed for maximum effect and success. These processes apply to a range of company sizes and focuses.
Host: Sheila Mitham, Founder and CEO, Inbound Marketing
11:15 -12:15 Arista Networks AnyCloud – breaking the chains of traditional hybrid cloud networking solutions
In this session, Arista will demonstrate how we can help financial service providers and fintech organisations achieve new levels of responsiveness with their private, public and hybrid cloud networks, thus supporting the changing dynamics of their respective businesses. Building on proven Arista technology, we will demonstrate how rapid, network-wide, automated provisioning ensures the network will deliver for the business, seamlessly and securely utilising private and public cloud resources. We will also review the mechanisms for obtaining deep insight into current and historical network status and performance.
Host: Gareth Flook, Systems Engineering Manager – UK, Ireland and South Africa, Arista Networks
12:30 – 13:30 How to manage KYC as you expand internationally
As a result of ever-evolving and siloed approaches to international regulation, the absence of global know-your-customer registries and a plethora of thin-layering risk management solutions on the regtech market, it can be difficult for established financial services providers and fast-growth fintechs alike to know where to begin with KYC compliance. One thing is for certain, non-compliance harnesses inherit reputation risk and costs firms an untold amount of value on a re-sell. As such, a bespoke approach which carefully straddles the 'fin' and 'tech' divide is needed. Representatives from TMF Group will be on hand to provide guidance on the strategy needed to help your compliance team avoid hiccups in compliance by day and sleep sound at night.
Host: Steffen Ruigrok, Director of Investor Compliance & Regulatory Services, TMF Group
13:45 – 14:45 PSD2 – Finalising strategy and enterprise-wide readiness
Rather than focus 100% on the technology, the workshop will first provide an overview of PSD2 and the overall flow of PSD2 transactions in a non-technical manner. This part of the workshop will appeal best to managers and non-technical executives who wish to get a better understanding of PSD2, followed by a full demonstration of the PSD2 implementation, which will discuss APIs, integration, etc. and demo the product in a live-environment. The second part of the workshop will be more technical but can still be followed by managers and stakeholders nonetheless.
Host: Dan Rao, Senior Solution Architect, Fiorano Software
15:00 – 16:00 The Incumbent's Revenge – a practical guide to cloud and digital transformation
Medium and large financial services firms often have the advantage of incumbent status, but their legacy systems can present some real challenges to cloud and digital transformation. This workshop will explore how firms such as these are approaching the adoption of cloud and devops in the real world. We'll be addressing such topics as: Who's doing what in the market? How and with whom? What's working, what's not? What are the barriers? What are the incentives? What are the key risks and how are they best mitigated?
Host: Ray Bricknell, BEC Chairman, Cloud Industry Finance Forum – Financial Services and Phil Bindley,
Managing Director, The Bunker

British Columbia is Canada's most westerly province, and is a mountainous area whose population is mainly clustered in its southwestern corner. BC is Canada's third-largest province after Québec and Ontario, making up 10 per cent of Canada's land surface. British Columbia is a land of diversity and contrast within small areas. Coastal landscapes, characterized by high, snow-covered mountains rising above narrow fjords and inlets, contrast with the broad forested upland of the central interior and the plains of the northeast. The intense "Britishness" of earlier times is referred to in the province's name, which originated with Queen Victoria and was officially proclaimed in 1858.1
Tundra, which comes from a Sami word meaning "barren land," refers to a treeless arctic region characterized by permafrost. Canada's tundra is known for its freezing temperatures, lack of trees, low-growing vegetation and abundant rock outcrops. The southern boundary of tundra in Canada extends from the Mackenzie River delta to the southern reaches of Hudson Bay and northeast to the Labrador Peninsula. The term "alpine tundra" is often used to describe any area above the treeline in mountainous areas. But "alpine tundra" and "arctic tundra" are not interchangeable. (While the two regions share some similarities, the differences are significant.)
The Rocky Mountain Trench is a long and deep valley extending approximately 1,500 km from the Bitterroot Valley in northwest Montana through British Columbia to the Liard Plain just south of the Yukon Territory. Its predominantly flat floor is 3–20 km wide and ranges in elevation between 600 m and 1,000 m above sea level. With walls made of sedimentary, volcanic and igneous rock, the Trench is sometimes referred to as the "Valley of a Thousand Peaks" because of the towering mountain ranges on either side: the Rocky Mountains to the east and the Columbia, Omineca and Cassiar mountains to the west. Humans have relied on the rich resources provided by this distinctive landscape from pre-colonial times to the present.
The Aroostook War was a confrontation between British and Maine authorities in disputed territory known as Madawaska. During the Napoleonic Wars, Britain was in dire need of wood and the region's pine forests became an important commodity. Claimed by both Maine and New Brunswick, Madawaska became fertile ground for confrontations between the two. The war peaked in 1838‒39 when the governor of Maine, John Fairfield, sent a group, led by Rufus McIntyre, to stop "provincials" from entering territory that Fairfield believed was Maine's. McIntyre was captured and accused of invading the colony. The conflict ended in 1842 with the Webster-Ashburton Treaty, which divided the territory along the Saint John River.
A continental divide is a ridge or natural boundary of elevated terrain that separates the drainage basins of a continent. Each drainage basin contributes its water to river systems, which in turn flow into distinct larger bodies of water, such as oceans. The main continental divide in Canada follows the ridge of the Rocky Mountains.
The Arctic Circle is a parallel or line of latitude at approximately 66°33' N that marks the border of the Arctic, the northernmost region of Earth. The geographic point at the centre of Arctic Circle is the North Pole. In Canada, communities located close to this cartographic boundary include Old Crow in the Yukon, Fort McPherson in the Northwest Territories, and Repulse Bay and Qikiqtarjuaq in Nunavut. The latitude of the Arctic Circle shifts slightly depending on the tilt of the Earth's rotational axis.

Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray met cousin and Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray at the latter's residence in Mumbai on Friday amid speculations that the parties could join hands, if not outright merge, before the upcoming elections to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) elections.
Theirs was a closed-door meeting, with aides of neither attending the meeting, which has only further fuelled the speculations. With the MNS' stress on the welfare of the "Marathi manoos" and anti-North-Indian stand petering out, and the Shiv Sena being reduced to little more than a mute spectator in an alliance with the BJP both in the state and the Centre, this new political equation could end up helping both parties.
Uddhav Thackeray has been at the helm of the Shiv Sena since 2004, well before his father and party founder Bal Thackeray died in 2012. Raj Thackeray, Bal Thackeray's nephew, had separated from the right-wing outfit and had formed his own party, the MNS, in 2005 with equally right-wing ideologies.
Since then, the Shiv Sena has turned out to be less and less of a political force both at the state and the Centre, despite its divisive views on a gamut of topics. It has come to a situation where it has been entirely snubbed for ministerial posts at the Centre, and has had its request for more minister in the Maharashtra Cabinet denied by Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis.
The MNS, which had also played a lot of divisive politics in an effort to form a loyal Marathi vote bank, has been at its wit's end over losing key bastions in the state.
It was probably to reverse these very losses that the cousins came together. Whether they buried the hatchet is not known yet, but it is more than clear that right-wing politics could be looking at a new front in Maharashtra.

GIANT'S NOTEBOOK / Familiar faces in next two weeks
Published 4:00 am, Monday, April 14, 2003
Though Jeff Kent's return to San Francisco tonight is a big deal, he was merely one of five important Giants to leave after the 2002 season. In a quirk of scheduling, the Giants will see all five within 15 days.
After their three-game series against Kent's Houston Astros, the Giants embark on a nine-game trip that includes stops in Pittsburgh (Reggie Sanders and Kenny Lofton) and Philadelphia (David Bell). They then come home to take on Dusty Baker's Chicago Cubs.
A sweep through the Giants' clubhouse finds a lot of players who don't want to rehash all the old relationships.
Rich Aurilia was polite but firm when he said Sunday, "I have only one thing to say: I think it's unfair to the new guys on this team that there's a big to-do about guys who aren't here anymore. They were all good players. They made this a better organization, but for the guys here now to not get the attention, it's really not fair."
PITCHING TO KENT: One interesting question is whether Kent will have an advantage facing Giants pitchers he knows after playing six years here, or vice versa. Actually, the question is mostly moot because Damian Moss and Kurt Ainsworth, two of the three starters in the series, are new. Kirk Rueter, who throws Wednesday, is an open book anyway.
Manager Felipe Alou suggested the advantage depends on who's pitching.
"I played here for six years and I had to come back the seventh year," Alou said. "I had to face Juan Marichal on Opening Day here. I got one hit. The next day, I had four or five hits. That answers your question."
MEDICAL REPORT: Closer Robb Nen threw on flat ground for the second consecutive day as he continued his slow return from a strained shoulder muscle. Head trainer Stan Conte, taking a conservative approach with Nen, won't speculate on his return but said it's at least two weeks away.
Left-hander Jason Christiansen (elbow surgery) allowed a run on two hits over 1 2/3 innings in his second rehab game Saturday, pitching for Triple-A Fresno at Salt Lake City. He is headed for Arizona to throw in good weather and might pitch again for Fresno on Saturday.
Ryan Jensen (back strain) might pitch in a rehab game that day as well.

Was suppose to do 12 but thought doing the 10k course twice and adding a .1 would be better. Was suppose to do 8 x 3 mins. But I just didn't have it in me today. It wasn't there. Not sure why or what happened. Did manage to do 4x 3 mins and one 10k loop added .3 miles to make it 6.5..... Crappy Day. i quit and gave up. should have pushed through whatever it was. knee is still hurting though. But I shouldn't have gave up.
It's hard to think positive at the time, but sometimes bagging it is the best thing. I hate it when that happens, but I find it's always the best decision. What a difference a day makes--the next run will probably be 10x better, and you'll feel great!

Yesterday I had one of those sweet moments with Zhaina over lunch. I had cooked us a special New Year's Day meal. Grilled chicken breast, bacon, avocado and lettuce. Zhaina had hers A la Cart and I had mine wrapped in a whole wheat pita. YUM! ....anyways.. we were sitting together eating our (may I say delicious) lunch when Zhaina looked at me and said, "you're the best cooker ever, Mommy." Now doesn't that just melt your heart...
And so then today when I got home from work (like most working mothers I'm sure) the last thing I felt like doing was cooking dinner. But as usual, I did it anyways. I even cooked one of Zhaina's favorite meals, tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches. double yum. So we're sitting there eating together, just the two of us (duh) and she says, "How was your day at work, MaMa? what did you do there?" I didn't think my heart could grow and bigger! I mean, she's 3! I wanted to jump over and scoop her up and tell her how very special she is to me. I mean it's lonely being a single mom sometimes, but the fact that I have her to share my life with is just such a blessing. But I resisted my urge to smother her with kisses and praise and instead simply said, "well today I fixed some people's glasses." to which she replied, "how did you fix those people's glasses MaMa?" and our conversation went on as I explained what I do at work and she listened, she really listened.
And so this year I may not have a New Year's resolution, but I do have a wish...... to keep those sweet times coming!
And may you have many sweet moments in 2010 as well!
Happy New Year!!!

Spoiler warning: Plot or ending details follow.
Cooking with Koko is a side quest in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. It is the second Cooking side quest given by Koko in Kakariko Village which becomes available after Link completes "Koko's Kitchen". Koko wants to cook some Hot Buttered Apples but her lack of Goat Butter has left her stymied so she asks Link to bring her some. Link can purchase Goat Butter from High Spirits Produce near the outdoor Cooking Pot Koko is using. Link can also purchase Goat Butter from Agus who travels between Hateno Village to Dueling Peaks Stable and back. Goat Butter is also sold at the Slippery Falcon branch in Rito Village. Link only has to bring Koko one stick of Goat Butter to complete the quest and she will reward him with a Hot Buttered Apple. Additionally, the "Koko's Recipe Corner" recipe for Hot Buttered Apple is added to the Completed Adventure Log entry for Cooking with Koko. Completing this side quest unlocks Koko's third cooking side quest, "Koko Cuisine".
Spoiler warning: Spoilers end here.

Today I'm showing you a card that I made for Pyssloteket some time ago:
I've used a lot of different stamps from Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous, mask from Crafter's Workshop and then I decorated with flowers and bling. :) It's so much fun to challenge yourself to stop thinking so much when creating - when I craft in company with my friends, we usually tell each other to "DO - don't THINK" when we just sit there and turn our beautiful patterned pappers over and over again. ;-)
If you haven't tried it already - DO! Don't think so much - CREATE!
Take care!

The Holes in the Stock-Market Rally
Despite the market's recent climb, several technical indicators are flashing a warning light.
In Aesop's Fables, the boy who cried wolf met with disaster: When a wolf really did appear, the townspeople did not believe him and thus they did not come to his rescue.
In the stock market, the bears, yours truly included, have done a lot of wolf-crying, too. But unlike the boy in Aesop's fable, market bears have plenty of evidence to back up their claims.

The top 3 risks affecting luxury brands on social media
For retailers selling luxury goods, social media is an essential tool to reach their audience – in fact with 70% of luxury purchases now preceded by at least one online interaction, a robust social strategy is critical for high-end brands today. But this niche market is at risk of a unique set of threats online.
G7: Making the internet hostile to terrorism
Terrorist-related content online has become a major issue, on a global scale. At today's G7 meeting in Italy it was agreed that internet companies will continue to take a proactive role and ensure decisive action in making their platforms more hostile to terrorism. They will also support civil society partners to develop alternative narratives online.
Crisp Announces U.S. Launch of AI Technology Used to Detect Terrorist Propaganda and Illegal Content on Leading Social Networks
How do we keep community spirit alive online?
Hate speech has become one of the darkest aspects of our social media lives. Even the most innocuous-seeming posts can quickly descend into foul-mouthed, offensive, hate-fueled threads. Why this is the case is the subject of much research, but no matter what the cause, the result is that the extent of hate speech posted online is starting to have real-world consequences.
Leaving terrorists no place to hide online
Terrorist videos have come a long way from a camcorder in a cave. Today extremists can be sophisticated and savvy. They know where and when to upload their material to get maximum views and shares online. In fact, their steady stream of propaganda, recruitment material, and violent videos depicting beheadings can resemble a well-oiled marketing funnel.
News release: Hundreds of new items of extremist content being created online daily
- 27% of content includes violent, distressing or incitements to commit terrorist attacks
- Spikes in activity seen around key acts of terrorism
- UK company behind the artificial intelligence technology used to detect illegal content for leading social networks
The amount of terrorist propaganda and extremist content being posted online, especially on social media platforms is a growing global issue. Now, a UK headquartered company has been identified as being behind the technology that is being used by global social networks to detect hundreds of pieces of new terrorism-related content created online each day.

I found &q...I found your sight by stumbling around. I found "pale moon" in a poem (Arthur O'Shaughnessy's 1874 poem 'Ode', from his Music and Moonlight collection.):
"We are the music makers,
And we are the dreamers of dreams,
Wandering by lone sea-breakers,
And sitting by desolate streams;
World-losers and world-forsakers,
On whom the pale moon gleams:
Yet we are the movers and shakers
Of the world for ever, it seems."
I have been searching for two days to find a new domain name for an umbrella company I have in mind. I'm going to use Pale Moon in some way to reference back to Movers and Shakers because I felt the following interpretation expresses exactly the mentality I want for the business I am creating, "People of energetic demeanour, who initiate change and influence events."
I can see that you are one of those people. I enjoyed your short story about the pink haired girl and your dialog about empathy. Not to mention lightly your fabulous flora pics on Flicker and your wedding. Your website is lovely, the background is one I have been toying with as my career history is in Interior Design. I love the fish. I will be coming back to check in on you! Thanks for sharing. I will link you in a blog of my own, soon. And analyzing just how you accomplished the links the way you have.
Thanks again.

A/C compressor & line seals and oil
View Single Post
Posts: n/a
Same Oil
Brother of The Benz, can do,
First, there are no seperate oils, the compressor oil is in suspension in the freon and circulates with the freon.
To check the oil level you close both service valves(if you have them) and remove the oil fill plug at the rear of the compressor. Using a probe, gauge the oil level. Remember if you have been running with a low freon charge then the majority of the oil will be trapped in the evaporator resulting from the freon not boiling over to the return line and back to the compressor.
This is why we always charge the system before we add oil for the oil of the fully charge unit will be circulating with the freon.
Refrigiration oil can be purchased from any reffer supplier.
The weights I referenced are unique to A/C oils.
If you are charging an empty unit freon and oil combined in the same container is available.
Good Luck it really is simple.
Happy Trails Beep Beep from The Spiderman in Houston!!!

SOURCE: installing windows on acer notebook help
The problem most likely - the laptop is old and the BIOS most likely cannot support a hard disk with a capacity of 120Gb.
Check the capacity of the old hard disk, most likely it is about 10 to 20Gb in size and you cannot buy one these days with these capacity.

If you created your system restore CDs when you purchased the system, insert your first CD into the CD drive and boot your computer. This will restore your computer to factory settings. ALL DATA WILL BE LOST.

Insert your restore CD if errors are found and not fixed by the checkdisk function listed above. Turn your computer off and then back on.

On this cuisine2, we have been taught of classic italian cuisine by Chef Francois, our menu will be Stuffed calamari , Veal , Gnocchi and mascarpone tart as our dessert :D
Well, as I said before I have been team up with Ling and Charlotte as my teammate. We were the only team that have three people, while others only two people. They have three teams so it means that there were seven people on this course. From my knowledge, three from Indonesia (incl me), one Philippines, one Thai-Taiwanese, two Singaporeans and only one guy in our course.
Ok, let's jump to the cooking…
Instead of using pancetta (similar to bacon), we can use parma ham. The challenge for this menu is stuffing one, it's quite hard to hold still the calamari and close it with toothpick…fiuhhh…anyway the combination of nuts,herbs and mushroom inside are just nice and go very well with the calamari. But ours' calamari was quite chewy,seemed like we are undercooked them LOL :P
2. Veal osso buco with gremolata
Beef is a big NO NO for me so don't ask me about its taste hehe, but my friend, who I gave this veal to, said that it was nice and perfect (come on…who's the teacher lol…a French chef and he has this menu on his restaurant if I'm not wrong).
At the beginning of the class, we cooked this first as it took two hours . It is really a slow cooker recipe haiz…and the most exciting part was when Francois did the deglaze.
I love gnocchi and it is healthy, easy to make and of course yummy :). Gnocchi is just like a smashed potato but coated with semolina and plain flour and just boil them on boiling water (sounds like noodle hehe..) After that stir them with butter (use salted one so that it has a salt taste) season and serve it with parmesan cheese..absolutely yummy…
I have tried a lil bit twist on this gnocchi which I used purple sweet potato haha..
Just a usual tart and fill with lemon plus mascarpone. Mascarpone is a italian cheese and usually use it for tiramisu. Seems like I forgot to take the picture of this dish…poor me…so sorry guys…I only have the making picture and only one >.<My thought…
I don't really get into calamari stuff especially not a deep-fry one hahaha…so maybe what I'm going to try is only the filling which I think it will goes well with rice or maybe as salad side dish.
Making a twist on what we have learnt is quite interesting…I always think of doing some twist on this and that but never do it hahaha…lazy and hate the Ntuc Tiong Bahru which it is too small, long queue, etc and etc… (am I complain too much hahaha…) well I know Ntuc is sometime more into Chinese supermarket…so if I need to go to Carrefour, Giant or maybe Cold Storage to get more westerns' stuffs haiz….Previous…Myday: International Cuisine1 - canapés
Next…Myday: International Cusine3 – Classic French cuisine

It's All About Audio Engineering Schools In Philadelphia
by: Carmina Joson
So your s degree down the road. Earning an Associate's degree online is a flexible, convenient, and innovative way to advance your career and improve your education. Traditionally, going to college requires a student to physically attend. This often requires relocating, or settling for a college because it is close to home. The advantages of technology now afford students the opportunity to attend college outside the confines of a traditional college, and earn a degree online. As the popularity of earning a degree online increases, more traditional colleges are joining online-only colleges in offering educations over the Internet, presenting students with broader educational options, not to mention flexibility and convenience.
In order to land that promotion you've worked so hard for, or attain the career of your dreams, it's often necessary to have some type of secondary education. There are many advantages to earning your Associate's degree online. Receiving your Associate's degree online allows you to achieve your career goals at your own pace, without interfering with your current work commitments. You need not live locally to attend the college of your choosing. Attending courses and submitting coursework online eliminates the need for commuting or relocating. Convenience is another plus in earning a degree online. A college may offer more sections of popular courses at many convenient times, including nights and weekends, allowing you more options as to when to attend class. This allows you more flexibility, and is ideal if you work full time and/or care for a family. In addition, who wouldn't find it appealing to attend college from the comforts of home?
There are many types of Associate's degrees you can learn online. There is certainly a degree to suit every educational and professional need. Some of these programs include General Education, Information Technology, Paralegal Studies, Business, Healthcare, and various professional certificates. These are but a few of the programs available to study online. Most of these programs are offered at fully accredited colleges that are recognized by the U.S. Department of Education, which is a necessity if you have prior college credits that you wish to transfer, if you intend to continue at another college in order to receive a Bachelor's degree, or if you want your degree recognized by your employer and any professional organizations you are affiliated with.

|Goal Setting Information
Breaking Goals Down To The Basics
One of the primary reasons why people fail to execute their goals is they set forth unrealistic or overly complex goals. Most of us have the tendency to look at the finish line without paying much consideration to the distance between the end point and us. Here are a couple examples to illustrate this point:
Or how about this one?
The majority of us lay out our goals in the general manner exhibited by the first statement in each of the two examples above, but unfortunately they are so aimless and expansive that unless you are particularly motivated and disciplined chances are good you will give up long before you reach the goal.
On the other hand, if you break down your expansive goals into an assortment of smaller goals that are easily achieved, you will find yourself far more focused and motivated. Each time you reach a milestone (the conclusion of a smaller goal), you will experience the jubilation of success and be one step closer to your end goal.
Breaking large goals up into manageable pieces also plays a bit of a trick on the mind. What would be your natural answer to the following question?
The thought of losing 80 pounds is horrifying? that's a lot of weight. Two pounds is much more manageable. Right? But if you break the numbers down, you'll find that two pounds a week for 10 months will result in the loss of 80 pounds, which is exactly the same as your expansive end goal.
By breaking up your large goals, you allow your mind to focus on the easily achievable midpoints such as two pounds a week. At the end of each week if you see that you didn't reach your goal of two pounds, you'll know something needs to be tweaked if you are to succeed with your end goal. On the other hand no matter how frustrated you become with your diet, if you see that you are losing just two pounds every week you'll know that you are well on your way and as such you will remain far more motivated throughout the process.
No realistic goal is too great as long as you break it down to easily achievable and detailed interim goals.

A Rock Hill man is accused of trying to steal overalls and bed sheets from Walmart and then injuring two workers as he fled.
Frank Delano Porter III, 22, was reportedly seen Sunday afternoon putting a pair of overalls on, then placing bed sheets down those overalls at the Walmart on Dave Lyle Boulevard, according to a Rock Hill Police report.
When confronted by Walmart employees about the sheets, Porter allegedly charged at them, injuring both employees' knees and shin. They were able to detain Porter until Rock Hill Police arrived.
Porter admitted to shoplifting but denied to police that he injured the employee. Police reportedly found a 4-inch buck knife in a sheath on Porter's right hip.
Porter was a conviction of shoplifting from 2011, the report states.
He was cited for carrying an unlawful weapon, shoplifting second offense, assault and two citations for battery third degree, police say.
The overalls and bed sheets were returned to Walmart.

Ok, so I'm officially back home in Portland! YAY! The flights were soooooooooooooo long! Wow!
So, I didn't get a chance to update my blog yesterday after visiting Nice. Basically, we got up early and decided to play "The Amazing Race" by catching a train into Nice not knowing how to speak a lick of French. Rather interesting! We made it just fine, though, and wandered through the streets checking out all of their stores. We also made it down to the beach...um, the nude beach! LOL I think it was optional because there were a few that were topless but not everyone was...and not a pretty sight either. ;) But on the other hand the scenery surrounding the beach was gorgeous!
After we got back on the ship we headed to the spa. I laid on the hot stone beds and fell asleep for a couple of hours...man that felt so good and relaxing! We then hooked up with our friends and went to the CTMH closing banquet where I was able to steal a picture with Jeanette (founder and CEO). I also got lots of comments on my shirt that read in french... "I'm always right" on the front and "even when I'm wrong" on the back. LOL Everyone thought it was cute! I even had it verified by an elderly man in the elevator that it truly said what I thought it did. ;) As for the glitter...OY! I have it freakin' everywhere! LOL How am I going to wash this thing?
So we went to dinner at the Magenta (one of the main dining rooms) with some friends so we could see our favorite waitress one last time. We laughed with her alot and got a picture, too. She was so much fun! Then it was off to pack for departure. :( I was so sad to be coming home because I was having the time of my life but so ready to come home, too, because I missed my family and friends so much - and STARBUCKS! ;) LOL
So, anyways, that was our journey through the Mediterranean. Now to leave you on a FUNNY note! *hehehe* About 45 minutes into our 10 hour flight I needed to get up and go to the bathroom. When I opened the door I saw that someone had missed the toilet and there sat a softball size of poo just next to the toilet. *hahaha* What's even worse is that it look like someone had stepped in it too. LOL! So I told the stewardess and she said that in all her 26 years of flying this is one thing she had never seen before. LOL Poor lady! ;) About 6 hours later when I needed to go again she stopped to tell me that she was the one that had to clean it up and that she made sure that all her co-workers knew that they owed her BIGTIME! Ha! Can't say I blame her for that one. *hehehe* Anyways, just thought you would get a good laugh out of that. I know I do! :)

I assure you we are open...
Now, on to the music. Today, going through my library, I noticed that a lot of the songs I like are covers. Which makes sense. A good cover works because it's like a two-for-one, especially when you have sentimental attachment to the original version. Of course, the band doing the cover also has to add their own seasoning to the mix, without spoiling the original flavor. Too often a band simply "punks" up a song by stripping it of unique qualities, reducing it to three chords, and playing it faster than the original (I'm looking at you Me First and the Gimme Gimme's, you cookie cutter bastards). So, I put together a collection of some of my favorite covers, and titled it, simply enough, "Covered Up". There's a variety of styles on display, from the simple, acoustic, campfire vibe of Aeriel M's rendition of the Misfits "Last Caress",to Charles Bronson spitting out a Hüsker Dü in under thirty seconds, to the industrial clanging of Rosetta Stone paying tribute to Nirvana's "Territorial Pissings". Most of the tracks should be familiar, and even sentimental to you. Please, let me know what you think, or talk about some of the covers you enjoy.
This is just a picture of my little sister and her dogs. It doesn't have anything to do with this post:

Hey Ry,
You're definitely not doing anything wrong here. It takes a while for people to catch on, and most are pretty lame about commenting (shit, I'm often guilty of that too). Big shiny pictures at the top do help, although I hate to admit it. Nowadays, people need the visual stimulation or they lose interest fast. The problem with that is you're just going to attract leeches who may not even read and certainly won't comment... so it depends on what you're looking for. Anyway, keep up the great writing/posts. I'm liking the variety quite a bit.
As far as the music goes, I'm downloading your covers collection now and WCS after that. I have a WCS 7" that I think I only listened to, like, twice. I remember liking it, but it was different than what I was expecting to hear. This post is a good excuse to get back into it.
I made a couple of hardcore cover song collections a while back; not sure if you checked 'em out or not...

Thanks for your continued support. I get a bit jealous when I see some of the more established blogs getting, like, 15+ comments on their posts. It's not that I'm seeking fame, and yeah the people that don't comment are a bummer, but it sucks to see that no one is even downloading the tunes. I really am doing this to get people stoked on some of the music I love, you know. As far as the variety, I thought it might turn some people off, but I listen to a lot of different shit. I love bands like Aus Rotten and Amebix, but sometimes I just don't want to be fucking screamed at. Sometimes its nice to listen to some Donovan and have a cup of Chamomile tea, haha. Thanks, again.

Personally, zshare bugs me. Too many clicking and things to navigate. So that could be turning people off from downloading.
In terms of comments and appreciation, from my experience posts often take a while accumulate comments. As long as the downloads don't go anywhere, people will eventually get to them. I don't really pay attention to the stats on my blog, but I'm pretty sure that I get an okay amount of reads and downloads (but my expectations are really low anyway)... but in comparison I get very little feedback. I feel like blogging is a one-sided conversation. So when I'm downloading, I like to comment nearly each time I grab something.

So its been awhile sense the last time I have posted. What have I been up too? Well I have completed some runs outside… and let me tell you its A LOT harder then working out on the treadmill for me at least.
So last weekend we dog sat, it was so much fun. We dog sit for Jon's brother and his wife's dog sometimes, his name is Enzo and he is adorable, and also afraid of everything.
We wanted to run around the Charles River on Saturday (It was so nice out this past weekend) but the surrounding area was a little to busy with people for Enzo, so instead we went to the dog park and we had a great time with him.
We did an 3.03 mile run on Saturday in 48 minutes. I KNOW but we had a dog with us and running outside with a dog is not an easy task.
Anyway here are some pictures from the run…
Enzo waiting for his run in the car.
Jon didn't want Enzo to be alone in the back, so me made me play chauffeur…
Enzo found a look alike friend!
The green line was a "Healthly Heart Trail" we followed throughout the park. It was just about a mile long at .75 miles. I looked this up I guess there are a bunch of "Healthy Heart Trails" in Massachusetts I have to visit more of these.
Trails are the heart of our parks and DCR wants them to be the heart of a healthy lifestyle. Statewide, over 70 trails will be designated in the hope that Massachusetts residents will make them part of their regular exercise routine. Healthy Heart trails will be identified by a green heart symbol, will measure approximately 1.5 miles or less in length, and are easy to moderate in activity level. The program offers a great way to have fun and get exercise in a low cost way!
If you live in MA check them out!
Enzo walking Jon… (yes I do mean the dog walking the human)
I am in love with my shoes, what can I say…
Running with Enzo… (Jon always gets his figures in the way of pictures!! GRR him)
This dog was in love with Enzo, he kept coming up to Enzo to play.
Enzo making friends…. lol he is quite confused by this dog.
Tuckered out after a long day at the dog park. His thoughts in this picture are "Man I wish I wasn't so tired, I would really like to chew up this blanket right now"
On Sunday we did a 3.02 mile run in the same park in 51 minutes. Its not easy running on the road two days in a row, let me tell you that!
Do you find it easier to run on the road or treadmill?

I woke up with sticky eyes. The super sets the thermostat at 75, and refuses to do otherwise. but at least we have heat, and I can turn down my own radiators. not that getting the heat on didn't involve threatening to report the landlord to the city.
it's been a weird couple of weeks. autumn always feels like more of a new beginning than the dead of winter, when westerners celebrate the new year. after returning from our summer vacation, we had three weeks to get my fall line going, before out of town guests arrived, followed by a weekend trip to see my mom and sister. the visit with my friend and her mate turned into sort of a disaster, as I started growing weary of her shenanigans. (indecisiveness, imposing on us do things for her she could have done at home) by the time they left (although they didn't stay with us the whole time) she knew something was up. I sent her an email, and all hell broke loose. now she's cut me off, saying that I'm not a "safe" friend. whatever.
the weekend after our delightful visitors left, we headed down to south jersey. a few months back, I realized that my 25th high school reunion was coming up. being a late bloomer, high school was unmemorable for me. my visits home were infrequent for many years, as I explored other possibilities and places in life. somehow after 25 years though, I started getting sentimental. the organizers of the reunion had set up a website, and I found myself visiting it, as classmates fleshed out their profiles with updates and photos. I told b I wanted to go to the reunion, and we registered.
but as the date got closer and I found out more about my former classmates, the less interest I had in attending the event. My mom was already expecting us and my sister was planning to come up from Richmond to visit. so we went to cherry hill anyway, and explored philadelphia as I had stated earlier. we ate dinner at ponzios that night, the local hangout diner. don't you know as soon as I saw the photos people posted from the reunion, I wish I had gone. okay, who's indecisive?
now b's in california, doing some work. the other night while poking around on flickr, I found out some bad news about one of my favorite teachers and just an all-around cool guy. if you are so inclined, read here about ezra and his fight with cancer. the site has a donation page to help with ez's medical expenses. and if you want to be awed by his awesomeness, look here to see his beautiful photography. it will make you want ezra's life. except for the cancer.
