Positive pay is a system established between a bank and a bank customer to help catch or reduce check fraud. The system works by matching the checks that may be delivered or presented for payment to the bank against a list of checks that have been written by the bank customer. Bank positive pay is offered by almost all large commercial banks. The system protects companies and banks against losses from altered checks and check fraud.
The bank customer, which is usually a good size business that produces a fair amount of checks on a regular basis, sends an electronic file to the bank identifying the checks that have been written with the check number, payee and amount.
When a check drawn on the bank customer's account is presented to the bank for payment, the bank uses the electronic file to compare the check or checks presented against the list of checks that customer has produced. In the positive pay system, the bank will usually compare the check payee, the amount, the check number, and date the check was written before authorizing payment on the account.
The positive pay system should flag or expose cases when the check being presented to the bank doesn't match do to alterations or fraud. Instances of suspect payments may include differing check amounts for the same check number, a counterfeit check with a different check number, or a payee name that does not match or is not in the file.
Of course, this is all done electronically to expedite the process and avoid manual intervention until the system finds an error or discrepancy. When the bank customer prints their checks, the electronic file is automatically transmitted to the bank with the list of checks and all the relevant data which is then compared with any checks presented on the list at the banks electronic reader.
Check fraud causes a significant amount of financial loss for banks and banking customers and both parties have an incentive to use these types of systems to reduce losses. While positive pay can be very effective in fighting check fraud it does not protect us against all fraud.

Police arrested 53-year-old Lisa Barreca after she shot her husband Monday night in their home on Aspen Leaf Drive. According to police reports, Eric, Lisa's husband, said they got into an argument in the kitchen over homeowners association complaints. Eric said he followed Lisa into the garage during the heated argument and that's where she pulled out a 380 Ruger from her car. Eric said the gun is Lisa's but it is registered to him. According to reports, Eric stated that he tried to slap the gun away and that's when Lisa shot him multiple times including his back and arms. Lisa also had a gunshot wound in her right thigh. It's not clear as of yet whether her gunshot wound was self-inflicted or the result of a ricochet. She had told police she was in fear of her life and that she had the right to legal counsel and to remain silent. Reports said the gunshot wound was found in Eric's back, which indicated he was running away from Lisa and not in an attack position. Police found seven spent shell casings from the scene. Officers said Lisa did not try to call 911, it was Eric who called the police. Both husband and wife are hospitalized and injuries are not expected to be life threatening. Authorities are in the process of trying to obtain home surveillance video from the property. Lisa was charged for attempted murder. Police said she showed no emotion and stated that she wanted to get home to her dog.

In the very short description that the blogger gave for his blog entry, he said:
Why GOP won't challenge Voter Fraud.
It's not my fault that the blogger misrepresented his blog entry. The consent decree doesn't keep the GOP from challenging voter fraud. It doesn't even keep them from pursuing it.
I based my comments on what the blogger excerpted, since the excerpt should contain the meat of the article.
Having wasted my time reading the blog, I found nothing to change my opinion about what the blog was trying unsuccessfully to argue.
I don't care if people pimp blogs. I don't have to click the link, and I rarely do if they excerpt. And if they aren't smart enough to put good excerpt information in their threads, that's their loss when I comment on what they excerpted.
If the blogger wants me to comment on his entire thought, he can post it here.
"In the very short description that the blotter gave...he said: 'Why GOP won't challenge voter fraud.'"
Which is what the article was about, only before or during, not after elections.
"It's not my fault that the blotter misrepresented his blog entry"
Not misrepresented, just incompletely explained. But then headlines never tell everything. You say it's misleading because you got the wrong idea. I did not share your experience. If the blog pimp is at fault, at least you can admit your fault was not reading the article and commenting on it anyway. Which doesn't necessarily matter unless you guess wrong.
"I found nothing to change my opinion about what the blog was trying to argue."
But at least now you know what it was arguing.

TE Connectivity Introduces New Video Distribution System
Enables Users to Distribute High-Definition Video Across Existing Cabling infrastructure
GREENSBORO, N.C.--TE Connectivity has introduced a new Video Distribution System (VDS) that enables network managers to deliver true high-definition RF and IP video over an existing data cabling infrastructure without the need for coaxial cabling or any RF tuning.
"High-definition RF and IP video are becoming commonplace."
VDS enables the delivery of video signals such as cable television, satellite, in-house video, digital signage, electronic bulletin boards or any other service normally delivered over coaxial systems - over a Category 6 or higher twisted-pair infrastructure. The VDS eliminates the need for a separate coaxial infrastructure or the need for an RF technician to install it.
"We're finding that simultaneous access to data, video and other high-bandwidth services is becoming a necessity for many of our customers - especially in the financial services, healthcare, and education industries," commented Kam Patel, product management director for emerging technologies at TE Enterprise Networks. "High-definition RF and IP video are becoming commonplace."
Delivering rich content in the form of high-definition video has often been a challenge for network managers as it typically means overlaying their twisted-pair infrastructure with an additional, coaxial infrastructure.
Patel continued, "Now, with TE's new video distribution system, we have effectively eliminated the time and expense associated with this additional layer of infrastructure. VDS allows anyone to access these services, including high-definition or IP video, wherever they have a network outlet."
The TE Connectivity VDS solution is TIA-568/ISO 11801 compliant and delivers broadband RF signals over an existing structured cabling infrastructure. It supports full-spectrum video (862 MHz) for up to 295 feet or 550 MHz for up to 328 feet. VDS is a true "plug and play" system for greater ease of installation and maintenance and features automatic gain control. Using self-adjusting baluns to provide amplification and equalization, output and input levels are adjusted to provide perfect HD video at the TV set. The system automatically adjusts the head-end signal for proper system operation and thereby eliminates the need for manual tuning by solving equalization and balancing issues traditionally associated with coaxial systems.
Patel adds: "This is a significant addition to TE Connectivity's Enterprise Networks portfolio. It solves one of the biggest headaches for network managers who are trying to integrate video distribution across an existing twisted pair infrastructure - and it provides a future-proofed solution for the longer-term migration to IPTV."

Bowl Kebap (Tas Kebabı)
Bowl kebap is one of my mom's specialties. Although I have been very picky about red meat dishes all my life, bowl kebap is something that I never said no. I have been craving it recently and noticed that I had never made it here. Almost four weeks ago I was on the phone with my mom getting the details of her recipe. The same day one thing let to another and I ended up buying plane tickets to Turkey and a couple of days later I was there having bowl kebap for dinner with my parents. My trip was not for bowl kebap, of course, but I definitely asked my mom to make it a couple of times in two weeks before I flew back. After green plums (something I cannot find here) of which I ate one pound a day, bowl kebap was the food of my short trip to Turkey.
Bowl kebap is a very simple recipe. Preparation time is approximately 15 minutes, but you need to cook the meat over an hour for tenderness and deliciousness. Since you cook this dish in a bowl that sits in a pot, make sure you have the right utensils before you start chopping.
serves 4-5 people
1-1.1 or 1.2 lb stew beef or lamb
2-3 potatoes, peeled and diced
2-3 onions, diced
1 tsp or more black ground pepper
1 tsp salt
2-3 tbsp tomato or red pepper paste
3 tbsp olive oil or 2 tbsp olive oil + 1 tbsp butter
2 cups of boiling water
-For this dish find a bowl that is resistant to heat and would hold all the ingredients. Next find a pot that the bowl would fit upside down, as in the pictures.
-Place potatoes at the bottom of the bowl.
-In a different bowl mix meat, onion, salt, pepper, olive oil, and tomato or red pepper paste with your hands. Make sure meat gets coated with all.
-Add the meat mix to the bowl, on top of the potatoes.
-Place butter on top.
-Put the pot on top of the bowl. Securing both the pot and the bowl with your hands, turn the pot upside down so that the bowl will be sitting in it upside down.
-Since this is how we will be cooking the bowl kebap and we don't want the bowl to move, place a heavy container on top to seal or stabilize it: a pitcher, teapot or a pot filled with water.
-Pour 2 cups of boiling water in the pot, between the bowl and the pot.
-Start cooking on high. Once you see bubbles on the sides of the bowl, turn it down to low and cook between 75 to 90 minutes.
-When you turn it off, you need to move the pitcher, teapot or whatever you placed on top, and slowly remove the bowl leaving the ingredients in the pot to mix with the water which has turned in to delicious juice now. If you do not remove the bowl when it's still hot, it will be sealed to the pot and almost impossible to move.
-Serve bowl kebap with any kind of rice, although white is my favorite, and/or bread.

Recovering from your Tummy Tuck
It's important that you take care of yourself after your Tummy Tuck so that you give your body the best chance at healing properly
Plan enough time off
It's essential that you have enough time to recover from your surgery. And not just time off work, it's important that you take time away from household chores and grocery shopping, and if you have children, it's especially important that you have another adult in the house that is able to take care of them. You need time to heal properly, the more time you take to care for yourself early on, the better the healing process will be.
Your diet is paramount
It's vitally important that you eat a healthy diet filled with fresh fruit and vegetables and lots of protein. You need to eat properly to heal properly. You should try to avoid packaged foods and drinks in general as they are often high in sodium, which will cause your body to swell from water retention. You should also try to reduce your sugar intake as it can suppress your immune system and elongate the healing process.
Flex your feet
You will be spending some time lying down after your surgery, so it's a good idea to consistently flex and extend your feet and ankles to activate your calf muscles and pump blood around your legs. This will help to reduce the risk of complications like blood clots, and your body will welcome the gentle movements.
Stay hydrated!
Make sure you drink a good amount of water throughout the day. The human body is made up of approximately 70% water and although drinking a lot of water seems like it would make swelling worse, it actually helps to flush out your system and assist with bowel movements. Avoid sports drinks like Gatorade as they are loaded with sodium and will make you swell, and avoid sugary drinks as sugar will suppress your immune system. You want to give your body the best chance at healing.
You've gone through a big procedure, don't try and snap back to regular activities too soon. The general rule is that it will take at least six weeks to feel like your normal self again. Because a lot of our patients live fit and healthy lifestyles, they are keen to get back to their exercise routines. You should avoid any strenuous activity for quite some time, and stick to gentle walking just to get the blood pumping around your body. Activities you should avoid include:
- Bending over
- Reaching above your head
- Lifting anything heavier than five kilograms
- Doing sit-ups
- Jogging
Your surgeon will discuss your post-op care routine in more detail.
No Smoking
Smoking can severely inhibit your ability to heal properly, and can sometimes result in improper healing and infection. You should try to avoid smoking several weeks before your surgery, and ideally try and stop smoking permanently afterwards.
Don't hesitate to call
We're here for you, and we know that it is a long but very exciting road towards your new body. Our experienced surgeons will take extreme care with every minute detail of the surgery to make sure the process is as smooth as possible, however don't hesitate to call us if you are concerned or anxious about your condition. We want to make sure you're as comfortable as possible.
Your Tummy Tuck journey is an exciting one, and your surgeon will go through your post-operative care instruction in greater detail with you. Our surgeons are caring and meticulous in their process and will not only perform your surgery, they will also help you learn how to take care of yourself afterwards as well.
If you are considering a Tummy Tuck, contact us for more information.

The idea is simple. It is to look at current events and compare them to events spoken of in the Bible. .
I hope to build up a picture of God's hand working in the affairs of this world. God is bringing about a day when all nations will be gathered to Jerusalem to battle. At that time God will send His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, back to this earth. Jesus will then establish God's kingdom on earth.
This kingdom will last for ever. This is our hope and the reason we watch.

Britain leads fight to stop EU-Russia talks
David Miliband, the British Foreign Secretary, warned his Italian, German and French colleagues, over Russian trade talks
Daily Telegraph, October 16, 2008
Britain, in alliance with Poland, Sweden and the Baltic States, has narrowly prevented the European Union from reopening trade and aid talks with Moscow, frozen because of Russia's occupation of Georgia.
EU "partnership and co-operation" negotiations were halted last month following the Russian invasion of Georgia in August and Moscow's occupation of the breakaway regions of Abkhazia and South Ossetia.
After Russia pulled back some troops last week, Italy and Germany have pressed for the resumption of "business as usual" on building trade, energy and political ties with Moscow.
Britain, already at odds with Russia over the 2006 murder of the ex-KGB defector Alexander Litvinenko, is taking a hawkish line towards Moscow along with former Soviet countries.
Britain is not as dependent on Russian oil and gas as other European nations are.
Therefore the UK can afford to take a far tougher line with Russia than say Germany.
Heavily dependent on Russian oil and gas, Germany has been traditionally reluctant to risk offending the Kremlin even though Miss Merkel has been slightly more willing to tackle Moscow than her Social Democrat predecessor Gerhard Schroeder.
On Wednesday the Italian Prime Minister, Silvio Berlusconi, even went as far as calling for Russia to be given EU membership!
With Bible in hand we can see how these events fit Bible prophecy very accurately.
Ezekiel 38 speaks of Russia (Gog) and Europe (Gomer) on the one side (fighting against Israel) with Britain (Tarshish) and America (young lion) on the other.
(Ezekiel 38:6 & 13)
Iranian Air force exercise simulates attack on Israel
Debkafile, October 15, 2008
DEBKAfile's military sources report that the drill beginning Thursday, Oct. 16 in northern Iran, is Tehran's rejoinder to Israel's big aerial manoeuvre last June.
Then, more than 100 Israeli fighter-bombers went through their paces over the Mediterranean and Aegean Seas, roughly the same distance from Israel as Iran.
Tehran's media claim the exercise will test its air force's ability to fly to Israel and back without refuelling.
The exercise will also test the US-made FBX-T band anti-missile radar system delivered in September and installed at the IAF Nevatim air base in the Negev. The Iranians say they will be practicing their "state-of-the-art military equipment and flight tactics," meaning an attempt to jam US and Israeli electronics and radar.
According to Iranian media, the entire range of Iran's fighter fleet will take part, including US-made F-4, F-5, F-7 and F-14 fighters and domestic Saegheh fighters. Mid-air refuelling will be provided by Boeing 707 aerial tankers.
We are watching the nations practising for the final war. Israel last year had a dry run in simulating a massive attack on Iran. This week Iran has begun a dry run in simulating a massive attack on Israel.
These so called "war games" are not games at all. They are needed to prepare for war.
It helps military planners increase their understanding and knowledge and test their equipment. It also enables them to see how their enemy reacts. Finally it increases the tensions and the nations take another step forward towards conflict.
This is precisely what God says will happen. The verse below speaks of Gentile nations preparing for war. The preparation will soon lead to action.
(Joel 3:9)
Cold shoulder for Iceland allows rival to court new ally
The Times, October 10, 2008
Declining to offer Iceland a quick €4 billion loan is one of the worst decisions the US and European countries have made in the financial turmoil. It is a false economy that will prove diplomatically expensive.
Not that Iceland is the world's most attractive credit risk, it hardly needs saying. The chance that it will lack resources to repay a foreign currency loan would be a conventional reason for saying no (although its Government says firmly that it will be able to meet the terms). But the collective refusal, including, it seems, a rebuff by other Nordic countries, has allowed Russia to offer the deal.
It doesn't take much to work out what Russia is thinking. A former superpower, in search of territory and allies, which planted its own flag last year on the seabed of the North Pole – what better prize could it want than a Nato member that has just been rebuffed by fellow allies?
Russia is taking advantage of the financial turmoil.
Iceland is in huge financial trouble as a nation. It needs cash and quickly.
America and Europe refused to give a a quick loan and so Russia stepped into the breach. Not because it is generous and likes Iceland but because it can extend its sphere of influence into a Nato nation.
Note the sentence above that says that Russia is "in search of territory and allies".
Iceland's mid-Atlantic location makes it a hugely desirable ally. Russia has its eye on oil and gas below the North Pole (the point of the flag-planting stunt). Those will be easier to reach if global warming melts the ice cap.
The Bible says that Russia will be prosperous at the time of the end. It also implies that Russia with use this wealth to further its great ambitions. These ambitions result in war.
(Daniel 8:24)
Russia calls for Europe to join anti-US pact
Daily Telegraph, October 10, 2008
The Russian president, Dmitry Medvedev, has called on European leaders to create a new world order that minimises the role of the US.
Confident that a spat with Europe prompted by Russia's invasion of Georgia in August was over, Mr Medvedev arrived in the French spa town of Evian determined to woo his fellow leaders into creating an anti-US front.
Gone was the kind of war time rhetoric that saw Mr Medvedev lash out at the West and characterise his Georgian counterpart Mikheil Saakashvili as a "lunatic". Instead Mr Medvedev spoke of a Russia that was "absolutely not interested in confrontation".
Yet there was little doubt that Mr Medvedev was playing the divide-and-rule tactics of his predecessor Vladimir Putin by seeking to pit the United States against its European allies.
We can surely see God's hand behind this financial crisis. The angels are very busy bringing about the situation required for the final judgement of mankind.
The fallout from this crisis is yet to be fully felt. The ripples of the collapse of capitalist principles are spreading out and beginning to enter the political arena.
Russia is now trying to use this turmoil to create "a new world order"!!
It sees America's position as being drastically weakened. Suddenly, almost overnight America's standing in the world has declined and Russia wants to "capitalise" on this.
There is growing concern that Russia could actually destabilise the whole financial system. It is one of only 3 countries (Saudi Arabia and China), that sit on a massive amount of cash that could actually influence the system. So far the cash has been seen in order to stabilize and secure Russia domestically. In fact Russia is holding talks with China later this month to discuss reducing their dollar holdings! The crisis will get worse
(Ezekiel 7:12)
Financial crisis dents America's strategic standing
Debkanetweekly, October 17, 2008
Moscow, which has not for a moment halted its military provocations of Washington, is coming round to the conviction that state regulation of market forces, abandoned when the Soviet empire collapsed in the early 1990s, is the right way, compared with the American free market culture which has brought the world to catastrophe.
Beijing, just three months after flaunting its admission to the worldwide global village during its successful Olympic event, is now congratulating itself on applying the brakes to market freedoms and refraining from expanding the Western financial enclaves of Hong Kong and Shanghai.
The most violent reactions have come from the Muslim world. In the Arab Middle East, there is frank talk of the need to break away from the American economy and establishing an international Islamic financial system. Iran's leaders gloat over the Western economic meltdown as indicating the end of capitalism, the failure of liberal democracy, marking the superiority of the Islamic republic's political model.
Continents and nations are going their own way, addressing their troubles and seeking cures without reference to the United States.
This weakening of the world's only superpower is necessary. When Israel is finally surrounded by armies one might have expected America to come to their aid.
However we know that America (and Britain) will NOT be able to stop Israel from being overrun. Why does God want this to happen?
Ultimately God wants Israel to turn to HIM not to some other "super power".
When Christ returns Israel will be its knees – two thirds in the land will have been killed.
Their only hope will be to accept him. They will do so… and he will accept them.
(Zechariah 12:10)
Israeli youth seek Judaism
Israel National News, October 12, 2008
A powerful trend has been noted at the Beit El Yeshiva website: Dozens of teenagers tenaciously overcoming family and other obstacles to become religiously observant.
The decade-old Beit El Yeshiva website provides thousands of Torah classes in various formats by leading rabbis, and features a popular "Ask the Rabbi" section. Among the 100,000 monthly visitors are those who are not religiously observant, but who want to learn more about Judaism.
In recent months, the website administrators say, "the wave of requests for spiritual direction - particularly from young readers who have not been formally exposed to Judaism - has been increasingly strong. We sense an undercurrent of a tremendous process of awakening and desire to return to authentic Judaism among young people"
There is an incredible number of Jews that do not believe in God at all. Israel has become a mainly secular nation. HOWEVER, this is beginning to change.
One example is given above. Another example is an organisation called Aish HaTorah ("Fire of the Torah"). Aish HaTorah is an Orthodox organization and yeshiva (Torah study). The organization's stated mission is "providing opportunities for Jews of all backgrounds to discover their heritage." Its headquarters are in Jerusalem. A key Aish HaTorah program is the Discovery Seminar. It explores the authenticity of Judaism and its relevance to modern times. It attempts to answer questions such as, "Why Be Jewish?" "Does God Exist?" and "Is Torah True?" More than 100,000 people (mainly Jews) worldwide have attended the seminars! They are very similar in approach to the seminars we run as Christadelphians. The Bible speaks of a time BEFORE Christ returns when SOME Jews do look back and believe again. It is the work of Elijah.

- change linker option for all projects from /NODEFAULTLIB:"LIBCD" to /NODEFAULTLIB:"LIBC".
- add a new cpp file(for example, vs2008.cpp) to the client project with the following contents :
extern "C" { int __mb_cur_max; int errno; }
- add /force:multiple linker option to the client project.
- define M_PI in ac3dload.cpp,trackdata.cpp and osspec.h:
#ifndef M_PI #define M_PI 3.14159267 #endif
- fix errors in type-casting ,such as from sqrt(…) to sqrt((double)…)

Sponsored Fun Run - Friday 23rd June 2017
On Friday 23rd June The Friends of Smannell & Enham Primary School are holding a Sponsored Fun Run to take place during the school day.
The sponsorship money raised on this day will go towards our ongoing project to raise enough money to provide the children of our school with a play structure suitable for all their ages.
This will give every child the opportunity to receive sponsors from family and friends on the attached form and have fun with their friends completing the run, gaining badges for their hard work and a medal for crossing the finish line.
The children in Robins will complete 1 lap of the school field.
The children in Puffins will complete 3 laps of the school field.
The children in Kingfishers and Swallows will complete a course consisting of a lap of the school field and then take them up the lane to the woods and back.
We hope you all agree this project is a very worthy one and will benefit each and every one of the children of Smannell & Enham School and we will continue to arrange ongoing events until we reach the end goal.

Figuration in Artistic Research Practice, April 2009
The Power of Deconstruction in Artistic Research, 2008
The paper discusses the use of deconstructive methods in artistic research. It highlights the fact that practice-based research very suitably complements such methods, while deconstruction on its own is seen as self-limiting and generalising exercise. The paper argues that the supplemental relationship between theory and practice that is set up in the Arts and Humanities Research Council's definition of research is an invitation to deconstruct precisely this relationship in order to gain a proper artistic definition of research, which the council in its definition is deferring to the individual research itself.
The AHRC's definition of research, which is essential for academic artistic research in the UK, describes neither practice nor theory alone as suitable site for artistic research at the same time as it does not give a clear enough indication of how their relationship should be negotiated. What can be perceived as a failure in the official definition of research, however, may be seen, by interpreting it in the context of deconstructive philosophy, as the definition's particular strength, which can allow for an arts-driven notion of research to emerge.
In the first part, the paper explains the concept of deconstruction by looking at some of Jacques Derrida's and Jean-François Lyotard's writings. The question whether deconstruction can be called a method is also discussed. In the second part, the paper shows the limits of deconstruction, by questioning if deconstruction can principally leave the discourse behind, which it deconstructs. Regarding art, the paper argues that although some works can be called 'deconstructive,' deconstruction is not what gives these works artistic, that is, visual coherence. In the final part, the paper proposes to look at artistic research as an option that becomes available only after a deconstructive procedure when the relationship between theory and practice can be reconfigured. This is also seen as the site for interpretation.

Artistic Research and the Role of Critique
In: van Koten, H. (ed), Proceeds of Reflections on Creativity, 21 and 22 April 2006.
Dundee: Duncan of Jordanstone College, 2007. ISBN: 1 899837 56 6.
The proposed paper argues for a close relationship between artistic practice and its reflection and contextualisation through a process of critique as not only a necessary component of research but also of art itself.
The paper approaches the question of critique from a philosophical angle basing the relationship between theory and practice on Walter Benjamin's dissertation 'The Concept of Criticism in German Romanticism' (1919), which foregrounds criticism as a function of art. In arguing that the Romantic definition of modern art is still valid, the paper then moves on to speculate on some of the themes. It claims that an artistic definition of research that moves across the divide between theory and practice has been a fact during much of modern art's history, a fact, however, that only now in the context of practice-led research can claim its proper status.

George Hanson Critical Forum 8, The Photographic Image, 13 May 2004
The George Hanson Critical Forum is a series of seminars organised by the School of Communications at the Royal College of Art in London. I was invited to structure a discussion about the 'photographic image' based on my paper The Digital Image: Photography and Photographics.
The text is the transcript of the session, in which the main points of my argument concerning photographics become clear. The transcript was published as part of a reader on the George Hanson Critical Forum in the autumn of 2004 by the Department of Communication, Art and Design at the Royal College of Art, London. The book can be ordered here.

The Digital Image: Photography and Photographics, April 2004
This paper was given at the PixelRaiders 2 conference in Sheffield in April 2004. Click here for more information on the conference.
The first part of the paper discusses Tate Modern's recent show 'Cruel and Tender' and with it the emergence of a specific understanding of photography, which I term the 'photographic style'. Understanding photography in terms of style rather than medium enables to include digital photography. The paper proposes to use the term 'Photographics' to acknowledge the matter of fact shift of the photographic to the graphic. The second part discusses the function of rasters and grids in computer graphics and argues that the grid allows information to be represented. This process is different to the chemical process of photography where information is presented. The final part traces the emergence of grids in the history of modern art and asks with Rosalind Krauss if grids do not represent an mythical but invisible centre that applied to photography eradicates the medium's link to history.

The paper discusses Heidegger's position on nihilism by following his line of thought against Jünger's and Nietzsche's philosophy. Whereas Heidegger's comments towards Jünger appear to successfully counter Jünger's advance, his identification of Nietzsche's philosophy with nihilism remains questionable. The paper argues, looking at some primary sources in Hölderlin, that Heidegger's use of Hölderlin against nihilism falls short of an understanding of Hölderlin's quest towards the singular that brings Hölderlin much closer to Nietzsche than Heidegger's analysis allows. Both thinkers show a perspective against nihilism that questions Heidegger's premise of a necessary relation to Being.

Early Computer Art and the Meaning of Information, April 2003
This text discusses the computer as Universal Machine. It gives examples of early computer art and groups these into 4 different categories (Algorithmic Art, Generative Aesthetics, Image Processing, Paint Programs). It highlights the importance of randomness for the understanding of 'information' following Shannon's 'A Mathematical Theory of Communication' and Arnheim's critical engagement with its application to the theory of art. The final chapter discusses the relationship between Conceptual Art and information technology.

Strong Demand for Both Rental and For Sale Housing Reinforcing Each Other in Chicago Area, RE/MAX Reports
May 21, 2015, 01:18 ET
CHICAGO, May 21, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- The metropolitan Chicago real estate market is experiencing "a positive feedback loop" in which demand for rental and "for sale" housing are reinforcing each other, according to an analysis by RE/MAX.
"It's a complex situation, but the net result is that a rising number of residential rental units are returning to owner occupied status, making rentals harder to find. That, in turn, encourages rents to rise and renters to become buyers," said Jim Merrion, regional director of RE/MAX Northern Illinois. "We believe that cycle will be playing out over the next several years."
Here and in the housing market nationally, home sales activity and home values rose through the first four months of 2015 even as demand for rentals remains strong, and those two trends are definitely related, according to RE/MAX.
The cost of buying a home in the Chicago area has compared favorably to the cost of renting over much of the last two decades, in part because rental construction has previously lagged in this area, keeping rents relatively high. Development of new rental properties is beginning to accelerate.
From March 2010 to March 2015 the average rent for a two-bedroom apartment in Chicago increased 41 percent, according to the website Rent Jungle. During the same period, the median sales price of a Chicago-area home rose 11 percent.
The housing slump of 2007-2012 expanded the supply of rentals but also boosted demand. Many former homeowners had to rent, and established renters often chose not to buy, but that has changed, according to the RE/MAX analysis.
"We see a shortage of rentals because home values have increased enough that the owners of many rentals want to sell," said Rachel Hausman of RE/MAX Experts in Buffalo Grove, Ill.
"Fewer rental units lead to higher rents, so more young renters are looking at buying. I've converted several people in the last few weeks from renting to buying. It really can be the less expensive option, especially with the low-down-payment mortgage programs now available."
The rental shortage isn't limited to Lake County. On Chicago's North Side, "we're seeing a small supply of units both for rent and for sale," reports John Kubacki of RE/MAX Signature in Chicago.
"One factor contributing to the shortage of rentals is that condo associations are taking steps to limit that option," he said. "Several large homeowners associations recently said that new owners can't rent until they have occupied their unit for two years. Many renters are finding their only choice right now is to stay where they are and pay more or buy something. I expect a lot more first-time buyers as this year moves along."
Paul Ayers of RE/MAX Central in Roselle, Ill., is seeing similar steps taken by suburban homeowners associations, especially in townhouse communities.
"Many associations now bar rentals, and that can negatively impact property values by putting the community off limits to investors," he said. "At this point, the rental market is fairly solid. A few years ago, we were seeing many rental evictions triggered by job loss, but today there's much less risk for investors and for the communities. Tenants are more credit worthy."
Where purchase prices are attractive and rentals permitted, investors remain active, according to Nicholas Calabrese of RE/MAX Premier Properties in Chicago.
"Knowledgeable investors see a reliable pool of renters, people 35 and under who aren't ready to buy even if they can afford it," he said. "They don't want to tie themselves to a purchase quite yet, but buying can be quite attractive. Real estate agents just need to educate young renters about purchasing because even if they have the financial wherewithal, many are put off by the big numbers and the unfamiliar process."
Christopher Hoelz of RE/MAX Showcase in Gurnee, Ill., reports that in his market area many current renters are considering buying.
"I'm getting two or three times the number of inquiries as two years ago from potential first-time buyers," he reports. "Landlords have been able to raise rents 5 percent a year for well maintained units, and there has been a lack of new rental construction in our area. As a result, this is still an attractive market for investors."
Dave Shalabi of RE/MAX Synergy in Orland Park, Ill., sees the economics of purchasing as compelling in his south suburban market area.
"We recently sold a home that could have rented for $1,350. The cost for the buyer was only about $700 a month (after the down payment)," Shalabi said. "Quite often, owners of rental properties got there not as investors but because they wanted to move to a larger home and refused to sell at a loss, so they rented the property for a few years. Now, values have rebounded some, and many are ready to stop being landlords. They have other things to do with that capital."
The result, according to Shalabi, is a reasonable supply of homes for sale and attractive values to be had.
"If renters take time to investigate the actual costs of ownership right now, they may be pleasantly surprised," he said.
RE/MAX agents consistently rank among the most productive in the industry. In the United States, RE/MAX agents averaged 15.6 years of real estate experience and 16.0 transaction sides in 2014. RE/MAX has been the leader in the northern Illinois real estate market since 1989 and is continually growing. The RE/MAX Northern Illinois network, with headquarters in Elgin, Ill., consists of 2,200+ sales associates and 105 independently owned and operated RE/MAX offices that provide a full range of residential and commercial brokerage services. Its mobile real estate app, available for download at www.illinoisproperty.com, provides comprehensive information about residential and commercial property for sale in the region. The northern Illinois network is part of RE/MAX, a global real estate organization with 100,000+ sales associates in 90+ nations.

It was at exactly 5.30pm on April 23rd that Indian chef Vishnu Manohar, held on to his ladle and a spoon, and raised both his hands to the air to mark an incredible record-breaking challenge for cooking non-stop for 53 hours.
Manohar is a well-known celebrity chef in his hometown of Nagpur in India and regularly puts in long hours filming for tv or in the kitchen cooking for others. But this was a rather alternative challenge he set himself… and successfully achieved!
He started the cooking marathon on Friday, April 21 at 8am. And all the way until his final mouth-watering dish was cooked and delivered to the jury for the official recording of the final time, he had accomplished his mammoth goal. His family and friends all cheered and in the traditional Indian custom, placed a huge garland around his neck.
"I had no doubt about my husband achieving this record," Manohar's wife told the Media.
"The only time I was a bit nervous was Friday night thinking he still has two entire days and one whole night to go!" she also added.
But Manohar had his mind on the world record status and he carried on despite the tiredness creeping in, with a huge crowd of supporters cheering him on at the venue.
To maintain his focus, and as you will see in the above video… the Indian Chef sang to the audience alongside a female voice also accompanying him to keep him from falling asleep.'The Singing Chef' is what he is being called, and now the 'record-breaking singing chef' to be precise.
The Chef carried on his singing, and his cooking and a whole lot more. When asked how he felt during the marathon cooking-fest, he said:
"I still have energy to go on for 10 more hours,"
He dedicated the stunt to the Indian Goddess Annapurna and also to the local farmers of Vidarbha in India. Though he had completed 52 hours at 1.30pm and had already beaten the previous world record of 51 hours, he decided to continue for another hour to cover for some short breaks he had taken every 8 to 10 hours and also to ensure that the bar was raised a little bit further for any other chefs around the world who may be tempted to take away his brand new record title.
Chef Vishnu Manohar… you are a legend, and I must also add: that's quite the singing voice you got there!!!
Special Thanks: Sandeep Kumar (Newsivity India)

Course structure
To gain a Graduate Diploma (Global Competition and Consumer Law) you must complete 50 points comprised of:
- One core subject, and
- Three elective subjects.
|Core Subjects
|Foundations - Competition Law & Economics
Foundations - Competition Law & Economics
Understand the history and spread of competition law across the world over the last century and the range of objectives that have informed its development in different places and at different times. Be introduced to the major features that are either common to or vary between competition regimes and institutions globally. Ensure that you are well-versed in core economic vocabulary, concepts and frameworks and the ways in which they are translated into categories of legal prohibitions and enforcement approaches across all competition systems.
Detailed Information LAWS90065
|Elective Subjects
Critically examine the main prohibitions that apply to cartel conduct, including approaches taken to and challenges arising in the definition and proof of collusion, the different standards of liability that apply to various categories of conduct, and the range of exemptions or defences that are available. Explore who should be held liable and what approaches are or should be taken to detecting, investigating, sanctioning and deterring cartels.
Detailed Information LAWS90064
|Unilateral Conduct
Unilateral Conduct
Explore various approaches taken to dealing with anti-competitive unilateral conduct. Analyse what is meant by unilateral market power and the conditions that enable such power to be used to implement anti-competitive strategies, such as refusals to supply, intellectual property licensing, and predatory pricing, as well as vertical restraints such as bundling or tying. Examine how the competitive effects of such conduct are best assessed and proven.
Detailed Information LAWS90066
Develop an in-depth understanding of the legal rules and economic principles that underpin the review of mergers and acquisitions and the types of information and analyses used to assess the competitive effects of these transactions. Examine how 'special' cases, such as joint ventures, failing firms, strategic and minority stakes, and creeping acquisitions are dealt with. Learn about the procedures used by competition authorities and the strategies employed by merger parties in the review context.
Detailed Information LAWS90072
|Competition Law in a Globalised World
Competition Law in a Globalised World
Consider the origins of modern thought about trade and competition that originated in the 18th century and developed as the organising mechanisms of both domestic and international commerce through the 19th and 20th centuries to the present day. Examine and analyse the evolution and spread of modern competition policy and law in key jurisdictions and regions and contextualise these development through the lens of global shifts in the political economy environment. Explore the relatively recent spread of competition law to developing and small economies. Investigate the impact of new technologies on competition law. And finally consider how the globalisation of competition law affects international legal practice in this field.
Detailed Information LAWS90069
|Asian Competition Policy & Law
Asian Competition Policy & Law
This subject will provide valuable in-depth insights into the political economy surrounding competition policy, law and enforcement in the Asia-Pacific region. Concentrating on the experience of key Asian jurisdictions including Japan, China, Philippines, Singapore and India, students will learn about the major features of the law and institutions in this region, the extent to which the regimes in the region conform to prevailing global competition norms, and the challenges facing practitioners and enforcement agencies in the Asia-Pacific. Relevant examples will also be drawn from other Asian jurisdictions such as Indonesia, Hong Kong and Malaysia.
Highlights of the subject include:
Detailed Information LAWS90067
|Consumer Protection
Consumer Protection
This subject will examine the policy objectives underpinning consumer protection laws, including the intersection between consumer and competition policies. Student will develop a clear understanding of the key areas of regulation, including various forms of misleading and deceptive conduct, unfair practices and contract terms regulation, consumer guarantees and warranties, and product liability and safety regulation. They will examine key enforcement tools and mechanisms for consumer redress, focussing particularly on the challenges posed by e-commerce, and explore the often complex institutional arrangements involving national and international bodies, as well as non-governmental organisations, in this field. This subject is international and comparative in its scope and draws on examples from a wide range of jurisdictions around the world, but with a particular focus on consumer policy, law and enforcement in the Asia-Pacific region.
Highlights of the subject include:
Detailed Information LAWS90070
Immerse yourself in the challenges and dynamics influencing institutions that administer competition and consumer laws – principally competition authorities, but also central prosecutorial agencies, tribunals and courts. Think about a range of institutional issues including agency models, governance structures, enforcement, compliance and advocacy tools, performance incentives and limitations and evaluation of effectiveness. Undertake an in-depth case-study on a competition or consumer-related body and critically analyse its experience in dealing with a major institutional challenge relating to its development, operation or the performance of its functions.

|Edit Paste Special
The Edit Paste Special command also pastes the selected contents of the clipboard in a specified worksheet location. Use this option for copying formats from one location to another or for switching the contents of a row to a column. Keep in mind that if the Windows Clipboard is active, the Paste Special option only pastes the last item copied to the clipboard. The paste selections are specified on the Paste Special dialog shown in Figure 4-3.
Select the option in the Paste section that indicates how you want to paste the selected information into the worksheet. If you select the All radio button, the entire contents of the selected cells will be pasted into the new location, just like selecting Edit Paste. This includes not only the value of the cell, but also any formatting, comments, or data validation that have been applied to the cells.
If you indicate that you want to paste only the comments, data validation, or formats, the existing values in the cells where you are pasting will not be modified. If you paste the formulas, the values will only change if a formula is pasted in the cell. For example, if you copy cells A1 through A4 and cell A4 contains a formula, when you paste into cells B1 through B4 only the value in B4 will change.
If you select the Values radio button, only the values of the selected cells are pasted into the new cells. Any formulas, comments, etc., will not be copied. For example, if you copied cells A1-A5 and A5 contains a formula that calculates the sum of A1-A4 only the value, not the formula, in A5 will be pasted.
The Column Widths radio button does not affect any values in the cells. It changes the column widths of the selected cells to match the widths of the copied cells.
If desired, you can perform a mathematical operation on the pasted information by selecting one of the radio buttons in the Operation section, as outlined in Table 4-1.
|Multiplies the pasted data by the existing data.
|Adds the pasted data to the existing data.
|Divides the existing data by the pasted data.
|Subtracts the existing data by the pasted data.
Figure 4-4 provides an example of each of the Operation options on the Paste Special dialog. Column A shows the values that are being pasted. Column B indicates the contents of columns C-F prior to the selection of the corresponding operation on the Paste Special dialog. For example, if cells A1-A9 are pasted into Column C and the Multiply operator is selected, cell A1 is multiplied by C1 and the result is placed in C1; this is repeated for all cells in the selected range.
You can transpose the pasted data from row to column, or vice versa, by selecting the Transpose checkbox. For example, if you copy cells A1-A4 and select to paste in cell B1, the values will be pasted in B1, C1, D1, and E1.
If you don't want to paste blank values into the pasting range, select the Skip Blanks option. When Skip Blanks is selected, Excel does not paste a blank value into another cell; the cell maintains its original value. For example, in Figure 4-4, if cell A4 had been blank and the Skip Blanks option was selected, when A4 was pasted into cell B4 the cell would have retained its original value of 6.

William Gibson Quotes About RealityQuotes about: Reality

I think that one of the visions that is closest to reality is the cardboard city in the subway station in Tokyo, which is based very closely on a series of documentary photographs of people living like that and of the contents of the boxes. Those are quite haunting because Tokyo homeless people reiterate the whole nature of living in Tokyo in these cardboard boxes, they're only slightly smaller than Tokyo apartments, and they have almost as many consumer goods. It's a nightmare of boxes within boxes.

It should be noted that in theory if one was to consistently suppress your natural estrogen levels for a long period of time, this would negatively impact your health, including your cholesterol. Due to the ability of Letrozole- to inhibit estrogen so much, this should definitely be a concern to most users. However the research that has focused on the relationship between use of letrozole and cholesterol levels is rather inconsistent in it's findings. Many studies have concluded that the compound is detrimental to both a user's HDL and LDL cholesterol levels, while other research has found no link. Obviously individuals are best served to monitor their cholesterol while using any compound via blood tests however barring that, letrozole should simply not be run for extended periods of time if at all possible. Doing so could cause serious medical complications.
Along with the issues related to blood lipids is the fact that many users complain that their libido is dramatically reduced when using the compound. This is related to the fact that estrogen is partly responsible for the regulation of an individual's sex drive. Since Letrozole- is so potent it can often drive estrogen levels too low and this inhibits a user's libido. To avoid this users can lower dosages, but some anecdotally report that even extremely low doses of the drug can cause problems. If this is the case a less potent compound such as exemestane or anastrozole may be a more appropriate option.

There are multiple drivers of the costs of negligence. These include the level of activity undertaken, the type and amount of harm caused, how incidents are handled and the legal environment and framework by which compensation is determined. We have a unique insight into these drivers. There are some we can control, such as how claims are handled. There are some where we can work with others to deliver improvement, such as the response to an incident. Finally, there are some where we can inform solutions but cannot deliver change, such as legal reform.
Both the healthcare and legal systems are undergoing rapid change. The ambition of the NHS Five Year Forward View for the integration of health and social care provision means that new organisational structures will emerge. Consultations on costs reform and the small claims limit will influence future trends in claims volumes and values.
The impact of the historic volume and value of clinical negligence claims, together with a growing Periodical Payment Order (PPO) liability, means an increasing financial pressure on trusts. This will sharpen the focus on what can be done to contain the position and there will be a growing appetite for data analytics to support this effort.
In the meantime, improved technology will open up opportunities to undertake analysis in ways which have not proved possible before. Sharing of data across the healthcare system, within legal constraints, in order to learn and improve safety will need to increase.

I am a reader. I an artist. I am a friend, sister, dog-lover. I am an introvert with so much to say, with so much going on inside my head… this is just one outlet for me to express myself and share what I love with others who might love the same thing. I'll probably start with posts about books and reading, but who knows? It might turn into something more – down the road I may start with artwork or photography. We'll see where it goes. What about you? Tell me about you.
