Ambassador Bill Taylor on the Alleged Russian Use of Chemical Weapons
The alleged Russian use of a chemical weapon against a former Russian spy turned double agent in the United Kingdom led to scores of Russian diplomats being sent packing from the United States and Western Europe. Ambassador Taylor discusses the strong showing of unity among Western nations, and its effect on Russian intelligence gathering efforts and additional U.S. and international economic sanctions.
Ambassador Bill Taylor on the Escalation of Conflict in Ukraine
Ambassador William Taylor updates us on Ukraine's efforts to upgrade its military with U.S. assistance to defend eastern Ukraine from Russian-led militias. Taylor weighs in on U.S. efforts to find a diplomatic solution to ease Russia's withdrawal from Ukraine, the effect of U.S. and European sanctions on Putin, and the recognition of the U.S. National Defense and National Security Strategies that Russia is a top threat.
Ambassador Bill Taylor remembers the Arab Spring
Ambassador Bill Taylor reflects on the significance of the Arab Spring and the changes brought about by the movement, including the democratic transition in Tunisia, the major political changes in Egypt and the role of the United States in these type of events.
Bill Taylor on Russian Elections and Putin's Longevity
Earlier this week, Russia's Vladimir Putin began his fourth term. Ambassador William B. Taylor explains that Putin's political longevity is a combination of Russia's desire to feel important in the world again, Putin's power over the media, and the support of powerful, wealthy friends. Nevertheless, Taylor says harsh U.S. sanctions combined with those from the international community have isolated and punished Russia for Putin's provocations in Ukraine and elsewhere, meddling in elections, and cyberwarfare.
Tunisia: Democratic but Precarious
Amid central Tunisia's dry farmlands, the city of Sidi Bouzid bustled one recent day under warm autumn sunshine. Street vendors and shoppers jostled under the roof of a new, open-air market, selling and buying produce or cheap clothes. Seven years after an impoverished street vendor in this city immolated himself and ignited the Arab Spring revolutions, his homeland has achieved a precarious stability. By many measures the Arab world's only democracy, Tunisia remains hobbled by corruption, unemployment and violent extremism.
Violent Extremism: Muslim Democrats as Part of Solution
The White House account of President Donald Trump's first phone call with Tunisian President Beji Caid Essebsi is a good sign that the U.S. might continue to work cooperatively with moderate Muslim political leaders who can contribute to global stability and aid in reducing violent extremism.
Tunisia and Ukraine: Linchpins of U.S. interests
The Obama administration's announcement this week that it plans to quadruple military resources devoted to deterring Russia in Europe highlights how seriously U.S. and NATO leaders view the threat posed by Russia. Ukraine is struggling to save its young democracy and stave off public disaffection with the new government's valiant but halting reforms, even as Russia continues its campaign of military and economic goading.
Action, Not Words, Needed to Improve Ukraine's Investment Climate
Ukraine must not remain a country of great but unrealized potential. The International Monetary Fund package and other foreign assistance are helping stabilize Ukraine's economy, but only an attractive business climate can result in the level of investment that will truly transform the country for the long term.
2015: War and Tide of Refugees Multiplies Urgency of USIP's Work
As the world this year saw its highest tide ever of people displaced by war, violence or persecution, the U.S. Institute of Peace has reinforced its work in the field to help reduce violence and its threat to U.S. and global security. "Our mission has never been more urgent," says USIP President Nancy Lindborg in a video that highlights USIP's work worldwide.
Ukraine's 'Invisible Crisis': 1.5 Million Who Fled War With Russia
When 5,000 people flooded into a city of 500,000 in one night with little more than the pajamas on their backs, they were greeted by the mayor and an assemblage of churches and civic groups ready to embrace them with shelter, food, clothing and moral support. The scene might sound like something from Europe's west, where refugees are flooding in from the Middle East and Africa. But this is Ukraine in the midst of a war and an economic crisis, and two years into upheaval, the strain is beginning to show.

Odell Beckham Jr. says he 'love-hates' the Patriots
Giants wideout Odell Beckham Jr. has never played against the Patriots. The second-year receiver arrived well after tension over Super Bowl XLII and XLVI had subsided. And yet, he's already got polarizing feelings about the New England franchise.
"I've loved-hated the Patriots for a long time,'' Beckham Jr. told Newsday.com Thursday. "I respect everything that they've done and everything they do year in and year out as far as being one of the top teams in the league. They get the job done, they win championships. But on the other end, they've beaten all the teams that I like.''
Since the Giants selected Beckham in the first round of the 2014 NFL Draft, the Patriots have won 23 games, including Super Bowl XLIX.
"You hate them because nobody was really beating them, and you love them because no matter what they go through, even what they've gone through this year [with DeflateGate] to see how they've come out, they play football,'' Beckham said. "There's something about it I admire. But it's still one of my least-favorite favorite teams of all time.''
Beckham has 59 receptions for 759 yards and seven touchdowns, and is well-known for his effortless one-handed grabs. Bill Belichick acknowleged Beckham's propensity to make highlight-reel plays, but also touted his "quickness'' and "open-field running ability.''
Belichick, as always, has done his homework, as the 23-year-old wideout is 11th in the league with 271 yards after the catch.
"It makes me wonder, like, how much has he really watched?'' Beckham said. "For someone to pick me and put that characteristic as the thing that they notice most means they're probably watching a lot of film. I'm sure he does.''
It's not necessarily good news for Beckham Jr., as Belichick's defenses have made a habit of shutting down the opposition's best offensive weapon. For the Giants, that player is likely Beckham Jr.

Skip Bayless says Dak Prescott has to win Super Bowl to keep job
One of the nation's biggest Dallas Cowboy fans is worried about Dak Prescott's job security.
Fox Sports' Skip Bayless said Wednesday that he believes if the rookie quarterback doesn't win the Super Bowl this year, Tony Romo will be the starter in 2017.
"Dak Prescott is going to have to win this Super Bowl to keep his job." — @RealSkipBayless pic.twitter.com/JMbk1fd2ee
— UNDISPUTED (@undisputed) January 4, 2017
Bayless pointed to Tony Romo's play against Philadelphia on Sunday as the reason for the possible change. Romo went 3-of-4 for 29 yards and a touchdown against the Eagles, and Bayless said that performance will push Jerry Jones to go back to his old starting quarterback.
"Because the owner so badly wants to go forward with Tony Romo," Bayless said. "And Jerry got to see, 'There he is. There's what I love.' And it's the perfect setup because Dak is going to go back on the back burner again as the backup quarterback."
The Fox Sports host is on record saying he doesn't think Dallas should go away from the first-year passer from Mississippi State. He said during another segment that he trustsPrescott more than Romo.
"I just can't ever trust [Tony Romo]. And I trust this kid with all my Cowboy-loving heart." — @RealSkipBayless on Dak Prescott pic.twitter.com/102e3BcKnV
— UNDISPUTED (@undisputed) January 4, 2017
Prescott completed 67.8 percent of his passes this season for 3,667 yards and 23 touchdowns with 4 interceptions. He helped lead the Cowboys to a 13-3 record the No. 1 seed in the NFC.

Tropical fruit like coconut benefits your health more than most of the fruits you've been eating out there. On top of that, coconut can be produced into coconut cream (or milk) and coconut oil to serve different dietary needs for you, so you can gain more health benefits in various ways you eat.
Health Benefits of Coconut Cream / Milk
Coconut cream adds a savory flavor to curries, desserts and cakes. That's because it enhances the aroma and taste of the dishes. You can obtain it easily and cheaply. It bears a thick, paste-like consistency. When diluted, it becomes coconut milk.
However, people avoid coconut cream due to its high fat content, particularly those overweight people who are trying to slim down.
But do you know that it actually bears good saturated fat which your body can easily metabolize and convert to energy fast? That means, it won't transform into bad cholesterol which clogs up your arteries.
Moreover, the principal fatty acid in coconut milk is lauric acid, which is the same fat found in abundance in mother's milk. After it turns into monolaurin, it strengthens your immune system and protects you against various illnesses like hepatitis C, herpes and even HIV! It also protects your brain and bones. On top of that, it holds important anti-carcinogenic and anti-pathogenic properties which help to prevent cancer.
Health Benefits of Virgin Coconut oil
Extracted from fresh coconut meat and coconut cream concentrate, virgin coconut oil bears such a fragrant and appetizing taste that you can use it to whip up delicious meals effortlessly. But that's just a small benefit about coconut oil. Like coconut cream, it can help reduce your bad cholesterol level and improve your good cholesterol level. Polyunsaturated vegetable oils such as canola, sunflower and safflower oils can't achieve that.
Oh, one more difference between coconut oil and other oils - one gram of its fat carries only 6.8 calories whereas the fat in all other oils carry 9 calories per gram. And together with its metabolism-boosting effect, coconut oil helps you lose weight too.
More Coconut Oil's Benefits
Are you suffering from high blood pressure and thyroid dysfunction? Coconut oil helps you regulate both of them effectively.
If you have damaged hair, try using coconut oil on your hair and scalp. It's been proven to be a more effective treatment for damaged hair than mineral oil and sunflower oil. That's because coconut oil is the only oil among the three which effectively reduces protein loss in hair.
Looking for a cheap yet useful facial care product? Virgin coconut oil is your choice. Here are some benefits:
1. It penetrates and moisturizes your skin.
2. It minimizes your skin damage from sun exposure that causes sagging, wrinkling and blemishes.
3. It removes dead skin cells, producing an even texture and glow.
4. It heals damaged or diseased skin.
What other benefits do you think coconut can bring to you in terms of its coconut oil or coconut cream? The list of benefits can go pretty long, but I'd rather you go discover yourself by start eating any of these 2 coconut foods. I'm sure you'll be able to benefit more from just what you're seeing here.

Question about Dryers
Posted by David Jeffrey on
It could be the flame sensor. This is designed to shut off the gas supply if it does not sense any flame so there is not a gas flow if the igniter malfunctions. Even though you replaced the igniter the flame sensor could be malfunctioning or just dirty from a build up of burnt gases - this is easy to tell because it will have a coating of powder-like residue. Clean it if it's dirty and retry the dryer. You can clean the igniter with a very fine sandpaper, you don't want to mar it, but I generally just use a dollar bill from my wallet. The texture of the currency will be sufficient to remove the residue yet gentle enough not to harm the sensor. Just wrap it around the sensor and rub it up and down while flexing your wrist. Be firm but gentle, it is a somewaht fragile piece.

HI thanks for the question. well ,you changed all the parts you needed to. but clean the venting from back, to the outside. thanks. please rate my answer. thanks.
Posted on Oct 11, 2008
the flame going out is normal. the heat cycles on and off as called for by the thermostat. If the heat doesn't come back on i would start by changing the gas coils.

Posted on Sep 12, 2008
SOURCE: dryer will not heat up
Take off the cover from the front, bottom of the dryer. You should see the burners. Take this opportunity to clean lint from the area. Start the dryer and watch this area. You should see the igniter begin to glow. If it doesn't, you could have gotten a bad replacement. If it does glow, either the gas coils are out or the temperature sensor is out. You could check them if you had an ohmmeter or replace them both as they are relatively inexpensive. I have experienced gas coils that will get so weak that even though they pass the ohm test, they still won't open with the correct voltage applied.
Posted on Jul 20, 2009
SOURCE: Thermal cut-off blows and high limit thermostat is
in this case we put the lower temp thermostat in the oven at 170 degrees till it was hot and measured with ohm meter and it was open. After it cooled down some it went back to being a short. Now with this part in the dryer and the new high temp thermostat
and it blew shortly after being turned on. A possiblity is that there is a short by passing the 150 degree thermostat and the element keeps being on and causes the 350 degree thermostate to blow.

Cuomo cannot let New York State lose money from the feds
Under Cuomo's heavy hand, talks resume on city teacher evals

The tense standoff between the city and the teachers union appears to be thawing in response to pressure from Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who has stepped forward in recent days to demand resolution to the conflict.
A United Federation of Teachers spokesman confirmed today that "informal talks" with the city have started up after nearly a month away from the negotiating table. Talks broke down in late December [6]over whether a third party should judge the appeals of poorly rated teachers. As a result, the state cut the city off from $58 million in federal funds for struggling schools.
Last week, Cuomo issued an ultimatum [1] to local school districts to settle their teacher evaluation issues within 30 days. "If they can't do that then we'll do it for them," he said at the time.
Today, UFT President Michael Mulgrew — who along with other top city education officials met with Cuomo in Albany on Monday — lauded the governor's "intervention."
"We are happy that the governor's intervention over teacher evaluations has led to communication between New York City and the UFT," Mulgrew said in a statement.
The Department of Education declined to comment and union officials were mum on additional details, including whether the negotiations would affect the status of 33 schools that the city planning to close through a federal improvement model called turnaround. An agreement could potentially take the turnaround plan off the table and allow these schools to stay open and revert back to their previous improvement models, "restart" and "transformation."
Cuomo ratcheted up his criticism of teachers unions [7] two weeks ago after the federal government warned New York State that it was at risk of losing millions in Race to the Top dollars. [8]
The state education department and NYSUT also have yet to come to terms on a statewide system, even though last week the two sides seemed ready to announce a settlement [1]. A settlement is unlikely to happen until at least next week, a source said today.
In fact, a final statewide settlement might not come until New York City settles its own issues of the third-party mediator. Cuomo's heavy-handed presence in the dispute, which has been recognized as uniquely stubbor [9]n, is a sign that he wants to see all districts ready to implement teacher evaluations by the end of the 30-day deadline.

NY seeks to ban sugary drinks from food stamp buys
NEW YORK (AP) - New Yorkers on food stamps would not be allowed to spend them on sugar-sweetened drinks under an obesity-fighting proposal being floated by Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Gov. David Paterson.
Bloomberg and Paterson planned to announce Thursday that they are seeking permission from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, which administers the nation's food stamp program, to add sugary drinks to the list of prohibited goods for city residents receiving assistance.
If approved, it would be the first time an item would be banned from the federal program based solely on nutritional value.
Black judge rejects plea deal for 'white boy'
Says three months of probation for fighting with a cop is 'ridiculous'
PITTSBURGH — A black judge from western Pennsylvania rejected a plea agreement for a man accused of fighting with police during a traffic stop, saying it was "a ridiculous plea that only goes to white boys."
The plea agreement was for a sentence of three months probation. Allegheny County Judge Joseph Williams said on Tuesday that a black defendant in that situation would not have been treated as leniently.
In court, Williams told Assistant District Attorney Brian Catanzarite that he "for some reason comes up with I think ridiculous pleas whenever it's a young white guy," according to The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. "I'm just telling you what my observation is. If this had been a black kid who did the same thing, we wouldn't be talking about three months' probation."

POLL: Race Relations Deteriorating Sharply Since Obama Elected...
Is Obama a Jackass?
"it fits in a lot of people's minds that he really doesn't know what he's doing, so, "You jackass, you're an economic illiterate" happens to resonate I think a lot better than saying, "You sly dog, you're getting away with doing this on purpose."
******Rush Limbaugh
Obama's a Lock in 2012 - The Daily Beast
Sure, things look grim for the Dems this fall. But the base will rally, the economy will turn up, and the GOP will shoot itself in the foot—ensuring the president a second term.You know I could rant and say this dude is an idiot and that American's are not that stupid that they would reelect this retarded jackass to another term, but as of today I still have no faith in the Republican Party. The notion that the party will indeed shoot themselves in the collective foot is very real.
Arnold Schwarzenegger made headlines this week by declaring that "Obama will get a second term in office," especially if Republicans win the House. You've got to hand it to the grand Teuton. Even when he says something blindingly obvious, he makes news.
Of course Barack Obama is likely to be reelected. For starters, American presidents usually get reelected. In the last 75 years, incumbents have lost a grand total of three times: in 1976, 1980, and 1992. And what did Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, and George H.W. Bush all have in common? They had serious primary challenges within their own party (from Ronald Reagan, Ted Kennedy, and Pat Buchanan, respectively). The last president who lost reelection without a major primary challenge was Herbert Hoover in 1932.
We can only hope that the Republican Party is not as incompetent as their recent track record indicates.
For example....
Casting Call for West Virginia GOP Ad Called for "Hicky" Actors
A casting call for a Republican West Virginia campaign ad called for actors with a "'Hicky' Blue Collar look."
The ad "Stop Obama," produced for the National Republican Senatorial Committee, features three men in plain clothes and trucker hats sitting at a diner, complaining about President Obama and West Virginia Gov. Joe Manchin, the state's Democratic Senate candidate.
Manchin is locked in a tight race against Republican businessman John Raese. CBS News is calling the race a toss up.
According to material provided to CBS by a Democratic source, the ad was shot at the Oregon Diner in Philadelphia. A casting call for the ad reads, "We are going for a 'Hicky' Blue Collar look. These characters are from West Virginia so think coal miner/trucker looks."
The casting call also includes wardrobe suggestions such as jeans, work boots, flannel shirt, denim shirt, "Dickie's type jacket with t-shirt underneath," "John Deer hats (not brand new, preferably beat up)," and "Trucker hats (not brand new, preferably beat up)."
See what I mean…

Hollywood, CA (PRWEB) December 28, 2007
Outspoken prison minister and author, Marty Angelo released an Open Letter today that he sent to hotel heiress, Paris Hilton dated November 19, 2007. The letter was sent as a reminder to Hilton of her comments made on Larry King Live on June 27, 2007.
Hilton was interviewed on Larry King Live a day after being released from Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood, California where she served 23 days of her 45-day jail sentence for violation of probation. She informed King at that time, "I want to help set up a place where these women can get themselves back on their feet. A place with food, shelter and clothing and programs, kind of a transitional home. I know I can make a difference and hopefully stop this vicious circle of these people going in and out of jail."
It has been six-months since Paris Hilton was released from jail and she still has not announced plans for opening a women's ex-convict transitional home.
"I would love to see Paris Hilton live up to her word," stated Angelo who once offered to serve Hilton's jail sentence in return for her enrollment into a faith-based residential treatment program.
"Hilton needs to remember where she comes from," Angelo continues, "Paris Hilton is no longer 'just' a high society hotel heiress but also an 'ex-convict' who God helped through her jail sentence. She should now give back by living up to her word."
Angelo informed Hilton in his letter that he knows people who are willing to help her with her vision to open a transitional home for women. So far, Hilton has not responded.
"Paris Hilton also stated in her King interview that she felt God gave her 'a new beginning' and things were going to be different once she was released from jail. What is so different?" Angelo questions. "Where is Paris Hilton's new beginning? All I see her doing is running in and out of nightclubs, taking long luxurious vacations, and attending various social events. What is so new? It sounds to me like the same old 'party hardy' Paris Hilton."
Marty Angelo is the author of the powerful life-changing autobiography, "Once Life Matters: A New Beginning." The book is offered free to prisons, substance abuse rehab programs, and troubled celebrities.

This is a very simple shield for SMD in-line filter with SMA connectors; just my two cents worth.
Make sure to use full length threaded connectors (i wonder why this type is not used all the times). I purchased them on Ali at $2.50 for 10pcs. At least one coin should be fully soldered; the other one can be soldered in a couple of points only. I did not do it yet but i will do it soon because leaving them free everyting comes loosen easily.
Total cost of the enclosure: 0.20€ including the two coins. Actually i have spent 5€ for one meter bar but i estimated the cost dividing, according to the pieces that i can make with it.

Help Your Customers. Help Yourself.2
March 14, 2012 by thatsocialmediathing
According to eMarketer, 46% of customers want to solve a problem when they engage with a brand via Social Media and 39% are looking to give feedback.
There are loads of advantages for a business to use Social channels for Customer Care, the main ones being:
- Cost savings (it's cheaper to answer a tweet than a phone call)
- Customer satisfaction (customers can carry on with daily life while they tweet you about their issue rather than being tied to a phone)
- Social Customer Care is scaleable and measurable
There are a few ducks you need to have lined up before you embark on this noble cause though (according to this article on the Hubspot Blog)
- Get your messaging right
- How to deal with sensitive information
- Scaling your Care team across the business
- Communication style
- Measuring the ROI of Social Customer Care
The article also gives some great examples of companies who have done all of the above.

Hi Andy,
we have been doing this for a couple of years now with great success!
I think it's important to take a baseline measure of metrics such as:
* number of calls coming into your call centre
* main drivers of calls (billing, outages, etc)
* sentiment
That way, you can begin to measure the impact of your initiative. If you can then relate these metrics back to a cost/call or something like that….you're winning!
Good luck with it!

Each generation may grow wiser but they will also be more powerless.
Why is the UAW Convention in Las Vegas?
So I ask again, why is the UAW Convention in Las Vegas and not in a city that represents hard working people earning money through labor? Why is it not held in a city where a major corporation keeps downsizing, cutting benefits and adding stressors to the workers every day life?
Why is it the same old headlines come out of these meetings (they really do)? Here are a few:
- Delegates are confident union can grow
- We must keep battling management
- We must unionize other industries
- We must have a long term plan with new solutions to the problems
- We have the passion, look around this convention here in beautiful Las Vegas
- These challenges we face today are unlike any in our history
qualityg says/asks …
- Grow? Ask the textile workers.
- Management ranks are shrinking as fast as union workers.
- Since you are in Las Vegas and your members have the passion why not unionize the
- I believe you would gain more trust and respectability if you actually brought a short-term
- Perhaps you should start thinking global unionization just like the companies are making
- Try reading your union history books, most of the problems you are facing are the same.
If you want public support get the Hell out of Vegas. It's true what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas and so do the empty promises.
Mr. G, did you ever respond to this letter?
Dear Mr. Gettelfinger, August 3, 2002
At our June 9, 2002 union meeting, it was brought to our attention by a member of our New Administration that there was a misappropriation of Union funds by the Past President and Officials of Local 239.
The membership elected 4 Delegates and 4 Alternates to attend the 33rd UAW Conventions in Las Vegas. However, 5 ex-officials and 2 of their wives also went to Las Vegas at our expense. The membership of Local 239 did not approve of the $19,000 in Airfare, Hotel accommodations and spending money paid out of our Union funds to send the 5 ex-officials and their wives. http://www.disgruntledautoworker.com/obs/22.html
How much did the convention cost?
NOTE - I am not, nor have I ever been an employee of the UAW or an Auto Company. I did belong to the CWA for a few years in the 70s and my father was a Teamster (50s - 70s). What bothers me most about the Unions is their lack of "Interdependence" among their own groups and other industry groups (UAW, CWA, AFL-CIO, etc). http://www.uaw.org/links/link03.cfm?sec=2&subsec=3
Following is an interesting site http://www.soldiersofsolidarity.com/. I need to visit this site each week.
qualityg says ... SOS --> Be Agressive, Be Smart, Stay Agressive
As you know when I mention a person or organization I try to send an Email or comment on their web page to let them know. 99% of the time I hear nothing back. Below is the message on the UAW site (http://www.uaw.org/contact.cfm) if you want to ask a question.
Geez, get in the 21 century boys, and I'm not a Union Member.
To contact the UAW International, write us at:

This web site is not a substitute for the procedures outlined in collective bargaining agreements, the UAW's Constitution or Local Union by-laws.

SEE POSTS # 9, 10 and 18.
Each generation may grow wiser but they will also be more powerless.
I understand a large portion of the approved $60 million dollars will go to organizing new members.
Why not $40 million or $100 million?
Is it possible to see the cost/benefit analysis breakdown that came up with that amount of money? Could you post it on your web site or perhaps in the papers?
You see Union Leadership is wise, the members are powerless.
I did not find out how much the Convention in Vegas cost, but the Detroit Free Press provided some other costs.
Wow! Sad to say, Union Leadership follows the city of Detroit's management style. Declining population of members (citizens), but increased spending and same amount of administrative positions.

Drone Volt: New Version of Intelligent Camera
Aerialtronics, a brand from Drone Volt Group, officially launches the new version of its Pensar camera-computer driven by artificial intelligence.
A true technological feat, Pensar is one of the world's first platforms with dual spectrum digital vision that allows real-time analysis of images or data. Infinitely customizable, it can be mounted on professional drone, mobile robot or used as an independent camera.
Dual Spectrum Digital Vision Platforms with Real-time Analysis
Pensar, developed in Aerialtronics' artificial intelligence laboratory, is one of the world's first dual spectrum digital vision platforms dedicated to real-time data analysis using a miniaturized Nvidia embedded processor with 1.5 teraflops of power. Its computing power, accelerated by the Nvidia Jetson GPU processor in the Nvidia Jetson module, enables it to detect, recognize, analyze and classify objects or people in real time. Simultaneous data acquisition and processing allows for immediate decision making.
Its integrated camera with a 30x optical zoom makes it possible to spot very small details. Another FLIR thermal camera is used to identify heat sources and determine their temperature. The streams from these two cameras, recorded simultaneously, help optimize image analysis in day and night time and bad weather conditions.
Unlimited Potential for Multiple Applications
Infinitely customizable, this camera-computer offers unlimited potential and can be designed and adapted for multiple applications: surveillance, inspection, public security and anti-terrorist operations, search and rescue, etc. It can be used in a wide range of applications.
It's equipped with a system for facial recognition, object recognition such as license plates, animal recognition animals and similar tasks. A digital "privacy mask" can be integrated into the images to guarantee confidentiality and anonymity.
The intelligent platform comes with an Ubuntu Linux Open Source operating system that allows you to customize it to suit your needs. Pensar is compatible with open source libraries such as Google's Tensor Flow.

..or "printing money" as it's called in the media, which is not completely accurate, but close.
Today the Bank of England lowered interest rates to 0.5% - almost the practical minimum (a negative interest rate doesn't make a lot of sense, although as commercial banks don't normally lend at base rate but something above base rate (quite a lot above base rate at the present time), I guess you could have a negative base rate but maintain a positive interest rate for lenders in the real economy.)
But the interest rate cuts seem to be doing very little to reflate the UK economy (although they are drastically reducing the amount of savings in the UK, which raises the question - where are all these withdrawn savings going? Under mattresses) so the B of E is going to use quantitative easing (hereafter known as QE) to expand money supply directly.
What the B of E will do is to buy up bonds (probably some mixture of corporate and government bonds) with money it has created out of thin air. This expands the amount of money in the economy whilst reducing the supply of bonds. The idea behind QE is that the addition to the money supply makes banks more likely to lend money.
Will this work? It depends crucially on whether the factor limiting bank lending at the moment is a lack of availability of funds to lend. I would argue that it isn't - they have already had billions of pounds of bailout money injected to lend with. The main factor inhibiting bank lending is that banks think they will make a loss on any funds lent out because the economic situation is looking so grim. QE is not going to change that. So it's not going to reflate the economy.
Having said that, QE may have a role to play in preventing a very bad situation getting even worse. That's because it should prevent deflation (i.e. general falls in the price level) by expanding the money supply. Deflation is bad news because it makes consumers less willing to spend - because things are likely to be cheaper in future, so you might as well save your money now (even if you've got it under a mattress!) and buy later. This removes more demand from the economy and can depress the economy still further.
QE directly increases the money supply and so should increase the price level. This is not a cast-iron relationship but the basic 'quantity theory of money' is an accounting identity which states:
M x V = P x Q
where M is the money supply, V is the rate at which money changes hands in the economy (on average), P is the price level, and Q is the real volume of transactions (e.g. real output).
Now, QE clearly increases the money supply. So will it increase P? It depends on Q and V. Assume that Q - real output - at least isn't lowered by QE more than it would otherwise be falling. In that case everything depends on V. If banks just sit on the extra money created by QE that could decrease V and offset the increase in M, leaving P unchanged. But a full offset is unlikely. Therefore, increased M should feed through to P.
However, as the monetarists discovered in the 1980s, there is a catch. The previous paragraph assumes that M can be clearly and uniquely identified as a quantity, which just isn't the case. M isn't just notes and coins in circulation. Equally important in M, if not more so, is 'wide' money - what used to be called "M3" and "M5" in the days of monetarism in the 1980s - which includes the supply of credit and various liquid assets (indeed, 'credit creation' is really 'wide money creation'). The 'credit crunch' has massively reduced the supply of 'wide money'. So QE will only have an impact on 'wide M' (as opposed to 'narrow M') if it gets the banks lending again - which, as I indicated earlier, doesn't seem that likely to me. Having said that, the direct impact of increasing narrow M should be enough to avoid deflation in itself if pursued vigorously enough.
(An interesting side issue here is that the impact of deflation on spending only occurs because money can be held as cash, which by definition has a zero nominal change in value over time. If cash was abolished and the government decreed that we had to have our money in various types of bank account, the interest rate on which could go negative, then the incentive to hoard money in deflationary periods would disappear.)
So the overall verdict is that QE looks a bit dodgy. What's the alternative? Well, the basic problem is that banks don't want to lend. So take 'em over and MAKE them lend! It's all about restoring confidence - at (metaphorical) gunpoint if necessary. But the govt doesn't have the willpower to nationalise large chunks of the financial sector - so we're left with the current mess. Expect little or no impact on the real economy from QE - meanwhile, zombie banks continue to drag us all down with them...

Plenty of prospects set to shine at Young Starsby Aaron Vickers / Calgary Flames
CALGARY, AB -- Prospects of the Calgary Flames will look to shine at the Young Stars Classic.
But they aren't the only ones looking to leave an impression on their respective NHL clubs.
The next wave of Edmonton Oilers, Winnipeg Jets, and Vancouver Canucks will descend on South Okanagan Events Centre in Penticton from Sept. 16-19 with the hopes of leaving a lasting impression on their future employers.
And there is plenty of potential to keep an eye on.
Including Jesse Puljujarvi, the No. 4 pick from the 2016 NHL Draft, and potential headliner of the tournament.
"He's a neat story for me," said Peter Loubardias, Flames radio colour analyst. "I had a chance a few years ago, before everything exploded for him and (Patrik) Laine and (Olli) Juolevi in the sense that I watched all those kids at the Mac's Midget tournament when they won that in Calgary.
"At that point you could tell, that maybe not all were going to be selected in the top-5 of the 2016 NHL Draft, but those kids excite me for the simple reason that in some ways I feel like I had a great look and a preview of those kids before anybody else had a clue who they were.
"To see their progression … and Puljujarvi has great size, explosive, great skater … all three are different, but even in the final of that tournament against Switzerland, he was arguably the best player that day in that 7-1 win.
"He was absolutely dynamite."
Puljujarvi helped Finland to gold at the 2016 IIHF World Junior Championship, posting five goals and 17 assists in seven games to lead the tournament. He was the highest-scoring under-18 player at the tournament since Jaromir Jagr recorded 18 points in 1990, and became the youngest player to earn tournament MVP honours.
He will be joined by Tyler Benson (No. 32), and Markus Niemelainen (No. 63) at the tournament. Benson had nine goals and 28 points in 30 games with the Vancouver Giants of the Western Hockey League last season.
Puljujarvi will also have a connection to Vancouver's entry in the tournament. He and Juolevi were teammates at the World Juniors.
"Juolevi, to me, he's so smart … reads the game so well, sees it well," he said. "He isn't the most physical guy, but I think he's going to be a heck of a pro when the time comes. I don't know if it'll be this year. It's hard to play in the NHL, for most people, at 18, on the back end.
"I like his game. He's calm. He's very composed. The only element for me that I don't think he's fabulous at is the physical side. But the way he reads it, sees it, makes first passes, can help you on your power play potentially, he's a really, really good player."
Juolevi was selected fifth overall, one pick ahead of London Knights teammate and Flames prospect Matthew Tkachuk.
As a rookie, Juolevi had 33 assists and 42 points with London, and along with his gold medal from the World Juniors, also captured the J. Ross Robertson Cup as OHL champions, and the Memorial Cup as Canadian Hockey League champions.
Juolevi will play alongside goaltender Thatcher Demko and defenceman Jordan Subban. Demko went 27-8-4 in 39 games with Boston College last year, with a 1.88 goals against average and .935 save percentage.
He'll see former NCAA standout Kyle Connor represent the Jets in the tournament.
"Connor is probably first for me," Loubardias said. "I'm still astounded he didn't make the United States World Junior team last year. He had an outstanding year at the University of Michigan. He played at the World Championship for the United States.
"The first time I saw him was at the World Junior A Challenge in Kindersley a couple years ago. You could see he had elite level skill. I was absolutely astounded that he didn't make the World Junior team last year."
Connor had 35 goals and 71 points in 38 games at the University of Michigan last year, and added two assists in five games at the 2016 IIHF World Championship. He signed a contract to turn pro in April.
Patrik Laine, the second overall pick in the 2016 draft, will not be in Penticton. Laine is representing Finland at the World Cup of Hockey 2016. Logan Stanley, selected 18th overall, will be.
Stanley, a 6-foot-7 defenceman, had five goals and 17 points in 64 games with the Windsor Spitfires of the OHL in 2015-16, and represented Canada at the 2016 IIHF World Under-18 Championship.

If there is a positive spin one can put on the energy market, it is that it is predictable. October is traditionally the month that suppliers raise their rates, unfortunately coinciding with when many will be turning their thermostats up to combat the cold winter weather. The industry is holding its breath waiting for the first supplier to go public with a price hike – and where one goes the rest will follow.
The current average annual dual-fuel bill is a record-breaking £1420. From speaking with suppliers, we're predicting that all the major players will shortly announce rises of between five to ten per cent. At worst this will push this bill well over £1500.
At the same time, Ofgem's new regulations are set to limit the number of tariffs that suppliers can offer. Where suppliers used to offer limitless variations of tariffs, now they will only be able to offer four types – most likely to be a standard tariff and short, medium and long-term fixes.
Ofgem's bid to simplify the market is beginning to have the unintended consequence of cheap discounted variable tariffs being scrapped. The number and variety of great deals on offer will soon vanish.
Despite this grim outlook, there are ways of keeping bills to a minimum and making the best of a bad situation.
Quite simply, loyalty doesn't pay. The first step for anyone is to compare the tariff they are on to the competition. The savings to be made from switching can be as much as £320 per year.
We would advise consumers to switch to a fixed tariff so their bills will be fixed for up to three years.
By switching to a fixed tariff, consumers can benefit from average dual bills of £1170 and most importantly, price certainty.
First:utility iSave Fixed v9 tariff is fixed until April 30, 2015, with a typical saving of £250.
For even longer certainty EDF Energy has announced a price fix until 2017.
It is up to you how you play the game. You can take a gamble and switch to a cheaper discounted variable tariff, but there is a high chance these will shortly be pulled and you will be transferred to a higher rate tariff.
With winter approaching and the energy market about to erupt, consumers need to look ahead and ensure that they will not be burned by price rises.

I feel like I don't even know what to tell you about this week. It has flown by!
On Wednesday, we had to catch a train at 6:37 a.m. -which is a terribly gross hour to be awake and running around, especially since we had to be out of the apartment far earlier to try and catch the right bus and tram to get us to the train station on time! Soeur Thompson had to renew her French legality. So we had ;) to spend the day in
. The only problem was that we were exhausted. So neither of us had a ton of energy to really do anything, but it was still neat. Paris
When we first got in, we had to wander around for awhile until it was time for her appointment. So we strolled around Notre Dam. That building is amazing! I have officially decided that we have gotten extremely lazy in our building ha ha. The details of the buildings here (like that one) are just incredible.
After her appointment, we went to the church's visitor center. It's right next to the chapel in
and the missionaries run it. While we were there, Elder Liao and his companion walked in (they serve in Paris .) And Elder Liao kind of freaked out when we saw each other. To be honest though, it really was great to see him. =) We were chatting for a bit while Soeur Thompson was talking to his comp. He was feeling almost exactly like I had been all week. It was so nice to feel like I wasn't totally off base and that we were normal in our shared stress, homesickness and in missing our MTC district a lot. And, it was just nice to see a face I recognized. If for no other reason, and despite how tired we were, I'm SO glad we went into the city, just so Elder Liao and I could catch up. Paris
Knowing we had a few hours until our train would leave for
, and not wanting to spent all day in the visitor center, we went out exploring. So we walked and walked and walked. Again, just like Notre Dam, the buildings everywhere are amazing! We finally ended up at the Louvre. We didn't go in, but we hung out on the grounds for about an hour, people watching, and eating French pastries. So...it was a good day ;) And technically we saw the Brussels too...just from a really long ways away ha ha. Eiffel Tower
One of the absolute best parts of that day was right after leaving the Louvre. First off can I just say I love hearing the police here speaking in French? They just can't sound tough and speak French! So, my feelings towards them got about 1000 times better after seeing two Parisian cops, outside the Louvre, speaking French, wearing gold painted roller blades!!! ha ha ha I absolutely died when I saw them! =D I really want to see them running after somebody. Especially with the cobblestone roads all over. It would be EPIC! =)
On Thursday we had a dinner appointment with an American member named Jan Noyes. Oh my heavens, her house is gorgeous! I seriously am in love with it. It used to be an old farm house, but it doesn't even kind of look that way. It's been super modernized and it honestly looks like a model home. It's incredible. However, the trip to her house was a bit...interesting. I'm so glad we weren't alone though. We went with the two companionships of elders in our ward and we got SO lost. And even worse, we ended up on the Dutch speaking side of the city. So we couldn't even get help easily. Wow, it was a crazy night, but SO much fun. We were seriously just laughing the whole time. I love elders. =)
On Saturday, we went to the ward house to play basketball and soccer for a few hours. Soeur Thompson and I ended up on the same train as the elders on the way. So we were all laughing and talking for the entirety of the ride. There was a woman sitting in the middle of our group just watching us the whole time. Once we reached our stop and got off, she exited as well and walked up to me and said, "Excuse me, but are you from some sort of church?" I told her that we were and which church it is. She told me her name is Claudia, and that she's from
Transylvania and is "normally" Catholic, but disagrees with their teachings and would like to find a new church, took our number and gave me hers. I am absolutely certain, I would never have the guts to walk up to random strangers, ask what church they belong to and immediately want to go with them. I don't care what church it is, that's a huge leap of faith into the unknown. However, I'm glad there are people like her that are so willing to give it a go. We didn't want to be creeping and call her right back. So we've given it a couple days, and are planning on contacting her today. So keep your fingers crossed that it goes well. =)
Once again, I'm running short on time. So until next week, have an awesome week, and try to stay drier than we are here! ;)
Love you!
I keep forgetting to tell you to tell Cayden happy birthday. I realize it was last week, but I forgot to say it in my email last week, this week, and the letter I sent you. Ridiculous, no?!
Happy Valentines Day!
Love (again)

Why Didn't I Think of That?
Once again, I ask myself "Why didn't I think of that?" Remember that little exercise trampoline you had and never used? Looks like I should have kept mine and made it into a coffee table. This coffee table by designer Alberto Bonomi is a hot new item and will set you back $4,500! Yeah, I should have kept my $30 exercise trampoline!
