WILL Forum @ Wharton : Why Wharton Shines!
Download Membership Form...
Participating at The Wharton School Advanced Management Program ?we come to understand why Wharton is a
"living laboratory" of the finest minds of key executives from global industry and the distinction and rigour that academia brings to business and innovative thinking.
It also brings home the reality that the Wharton School has the deepest commitment to building a better society that will nourish future business leaders for future markets, who will find ways to be �cooperatively competitive and take responsibility for the common good and bring high performance to their business goals.
Clearly, Wharton is not engaging its advanced management program participants in a series of traditional workshops and management principles but it is it pushing the limits of their minds to leverage their deepest energies and potentials to visualize the forces that will shape the future leadership-- and that each of us should be able and willing to make a substantive contribution to it.
At the same time, Wharton tends to build and encourage a critical process of reflective listening, an understanding that there is no linear-line -- but that each culture, each country, each company, and each organization will define the future business scenarios differently -?and that it important to bring a collective thinking to the mission for best rewards to business and society.
In fine analogy to the discourse in the classrooms, Wharton takes us on a
"river-boat-experience" that reminds us that unless the high momentum and energy created by those who are leading in front-positions of the boat is well balanced by the last person on
the "bow of the boat" - the boat will continue to rock on unsteady waters. The �High Performance team" will always be the one that will �get its rhythm right" and not just have the high energy and skills.
So, when did we last hear the terms �en-noble?, �collaborative competition? �vicious cycle to virtuous cycle? �active learning? �intelligent failure?, �discovery driven planning? �creativity not hyperactivity? �network based thinking,"
- Law of Requisite Variety,- �peripheral vision"
- social glue for structural holes and
"meta-thinking"? These will be the �jewels" that we will take back with us
-if we know how to treasure them.
And, when did you last feel that you are truly a part of an on-going �larger story"
-that is larger than yourself and your current goals
- which if recognized well on time, will make you the authentic leader you want to be?
This is what spending time at the Wharton School can help to redefine-- for your life and thought-leadership

Style and it happens all the time when loan words and Japanese words meet.
Watch more movies with subtitles and you'll see tons of it.
You see, gentlemen, a pimp's love is very different from a square's...
The little words across the top are called furigana, and they indicate how a word is pronounced if there's any ambiguity. Most kids' manga have them for every kanji to help the younger readers.
In your case, it's a stylistic thing. The character is actually saying the English word "shotgun", but since many Japanese readers don't know what that is the kanji "sandanjuu" is written underneath it. Just remember that the furigana is what the character actually SAYS, and the main text is what the character MEANS.
I don't even know the Japanes word, maybe something like 王国 and the furigana for it was "キングダム"
And in one movie I watched their was an English song that rhymed the words KENTUCKY and UNLUCKY. Kentucky, of course, was written in katakana, but unlucky was written 不幸 (ORWHATREVER) with アンラッキー as the furigana.
I think it's sometimes also used not just for a rhyme but do something similar to how you can make up totally sci-fi or fantasy words in English that the audience has never heard before but which they can pretty readily guess the meaning of by their components.
For example, "lightsaber". You know what light is and you know what a saber is. It's not that hard to put two and two together and figure it's some sort of laser sword.
If I said "aquasaber", you'd probably be able to guess that it's some sort of sword that probably has something to do with water: maybe the blade is somehow made of water or maybe it's a sword meant to be used underwater.
Now, I could say 水刀 and gloss it as a newly minted Japanese word (みずがたな or すいとう, perhaps, though that latter is apparently a homophone for "waterbottle") but I might also be hip and write 水刀 furigana'd with アクアセーバー.
I saw the new Harry Potter movie in English with Japanese subtitles recently. Horcrux was 分霊箱 which was furigana'd not as ぶんれいそう or whatever but as ホークラックス. I figure doing it this way lets them use the special word while also giving the audience a good idea of what it means. (Actually, more so than "horcrux" does for most English-speakers.)
There are also cases I've seen in song lyrics, where different furigana is used to give the word a double meaning. For example, the singer says "kimi" - that's what fits the meter or sounds good in the song. But, the lyric writer wants to specify WHO the "kimi" is referring to - so they'll write a more specific kanji with a totally different reading, and then just put furigana over it that says "kimi." It's pretty clever, I think!

16-year-old model and actress Lily-rose Depp graced the cover of the 15-th of the British magazine LOVE.
Lily looks up from the cover with his big beautiful brown eyes. Makeup for the heroine's room is quite bright: blue and orange eye shadows, lip color fuchsia, pink blush to the temples. The room is decorated in the style of a girl's diary - the title of the publication and the title as if written with colored pens.
A new edition with the gorgeous Lily-rose will be on sale from 8 February.
Recall that the 16-year-old daughter of johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis is not the first time is photographed for glossy magazines. Also, she wants to act in films. Lily-rose has already been approved for the role in the film by Kevin Smith "Yoga Horses", where she will play together with his father johnny. We also know that Lily-rose will embody Isadora Duncan in a French movie "La danseuse".

Have you tried wearing a tunic with a skirt? Will you try it?

Lovely outfit ! I really like the color of the skirt ! And I think it looks really good on you !ReplyDelete
I don't have a tunic...So I have to say no to both your questions...My skirts are all modest so I don't think I'm going to buy a tunic AND a not so modest skirt just to try the look ! But thanks for sharing this kind of tips, it's always helpful !
And I'll try to get to your email tomorrow ! Hope you're not too busy with school !Replies
Hahahahaha...I wouldn't go out and buy it either....everything you see me wearing I have been gifted...and so I try things out. ☺ School has been normal but health wise I've not been doing to good. Can't wait to get your email! ☺Delete

Looks great! I would never be able to pull off the look (even if I had those items), but it looks awesome (and modet) on you! Love the cute shoes too!ReplyDeleteReplies
Thank you so much!Delete
I love wearing tunics with skirts, it's even nicer with a full layered skirt :-) if you are busty like me, try one with an empire waist, or even one of those tunic-y maternity tops......ReplyDeleteReplies
Thank you for stopping by. I will have to try it with a full layered skirt sometimes.Delete
No, I am far from busty...but maybe a reader will be helped by your comment. ☺

Discussion in 'NDS - Console and Game Discussions' started by t3hree6ty, Feb 7, 2009.
I just got a question about it please bear with me here what does it do and how do i use it
you can create pokemon codes for an AR.
You can find all you need to know there.
No, you can edit your pokemon and their levels and attributes. And other stuff like what pokemon appear where.
Pokesav is a program that allows you to change virtually all aspects of the save data. If you have a sav for pokemon you can make direct changes to the sav, while if you just want to make codes it also works as an AR Code output machine. It allows you to make up almost anything, except new pokemon(You know like made up pokemon that aren't in the game) though you can make pokemon that have abilities that it normally cant have..

Our long term-goal is to investigate novel approaches to prevent HIV transmission by the use of topical microbicides. For this purpose we have developed and implemented a small animal model where human stem cells are used to reconstitute the hematopoietic system of immunodeficient mice (47). In these humanized mice (designated BIT to represent the fact they are generated from a bone marrow transplant of mice previously implanted with a piece of autologous human fetal liver and thymic tissue) there is systemic reconstitution with human hematopoietic cells in all hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic tissues tested. Like non-human primates, these humanized mice are susceptible to infection with X4- or R5-tropic HIV-1 administered either intrarectally or intravaginally (13, 65). Infection results in plasma antigenemia, development of anti-HIV specific human antibodies, and progressive depletion of human CD4+ cells from the peripheral blood. Furthermore, infection can be efficiently prevented by pre-exposure prophylaxis with antivirals (13). In this grant we will use this system to test the hypothesis that topical administration of microbicides can effectively prevent rectal HIV-1 transmission.
Specific Aim 1) To determine the potential protective effect of UC781 to prevent rectal HIV-1 infection.
Specific Aim 2) To determine the efficacy of topically administered tenofovir (TFV) to prevent rectal HIV-1 transmission.
Specific Aim 3) To determine the protective effect of a combination of TFV and UC781 to prevent rectal HIV- 1 transmission
With almost 5 million people becoming infected during the past year, the global HIV-1 pandemic continues to spread rapidly. Anal intercourse is practiced by both heterosexuals and homosexuals and HIV-1 transmission has been shown to be more efficient through anal intercourse than through vaginal intercourse. Rectal microbicides have the potential to slow the spread of HIV-1.

Because it's the 21st century, everyone can broadcast live. It's pretty wacky!
I've been setting up my phone at some shows and shooting "live" feeds on Periscope. (I tried Facebook, but it didn't do "landscape" mode and my head was sideways.)
You can watch them here:
It's interesting knowing that there are people watching and the successes and mistakes could be spread around the world.
My goal is to always put the live audience first, but strange how it affects the performance just a little. In the most recent one, I noticed that I was "cheating" toward the camera. I have frequently found it necessary to turn off the live feed so that I can focus solely on the people who are actually showing up in person.
One of these days I'll figure out how to make it an "event." If you have ideas let me know.

Showcasing Security Entrance Integration at ISC West 2018
Las Vegas, April 2018 – Our American colleagues will, this week, be exhibiting at ISC West in Las Vegas from April 11 – 13 2018. If you are in the area, make sure you visit and learn more about our integrated access control solutions. Find them at booth #8037 at the Sands Expo Centre. Helping Security Professionals Manage Risk and Liability Security entrances with both integrated access and anti-tailgating technologies are helping security professionals manage risk and liability by preventing infiltration into their buildings. The following solutions will be on display in our booth: Lifeline Speedlane Swing: The industry's slimmest speed gate will feature a custom, integrated pedestal that incorporates the MorphoWave™ touchless fingerprint technology from IDEMIA. This solution enables high throughput with the enhanced security of rapid biometric identification, all in a stylish, cohesive design. Circlelock: Offering the highest level of security available in an entrance, the Circlelock security portal prevents intrusion into the most sensitive areas such as data centers. The portal will be configured to demonstrate two-factor authentication: an AMAG Symmetry card reader on the outside of the portal conducts the initial authorisation, followed by an iris scanning technology inside the portal from Iris ID called the iCAM7S Series reader, to confirm identity. Circlelock Combi*: The Circlelock Combi half portal is the newest entry solution by Boon Edam. This clever solution transforms an existing swinging door into a high security entrance that prevents piggybacking. It also enables organisations to save on both space and renovation costs. In the booth, the half portal will demonstrate a two-factor authentication scenario: initial authentication using an AMAG Symmetry card reader to enter the portal, followed by facial scanning technology from StoneLock Pro® to open the second door. Tourlock 180: The industry's best-selling security revolving door will feature an AMAG Symmetry card reader to demonstrate access control integration paired with the door's uniquely high, bi-directional throughput and its ability to prevent tailgating and piggybacking without manned supervision. StereoVision: A proprietary technology in Boon Edam's Circlelock and Tourlock, StereoVision prevents piggybacking by using a combination of near infrared and optical sensors to determine if someone is entering the door alone. Visitors to the booth will be able to see how they can calibrate the technology to obtain the mathematical probability of successful piggybacking prevention, thereby justifying their investment in high security doors and portals. All Entrances to the Exhibit Hall to Feature New Speed Gates For the 11th year in a row, Boon Edam has been named the official speed gate sponsor of ISC West. For the first time, we are excited to have installed 34 lanes at all the entrances to the show. The model is our Speedlane Open. These speed gates feature a barrier-free design, ideal for deterring casual tailgating attempts. The Open turnstile is part of the sleek and modern Lifeline Series launched in 2015, which has helped propel Boon Edam to the market leading position for security entrances, according to "Pedestrian Entrance Control Equipment" by IHS Markit® for the 2014-2016 period. *The Circlelock Combi is currently only available in the USA.

Boon Edam Launches the Slimmest Single Wing Access Gate
Edam, The Netherlands – Today, Royal Boon Edam International B.V. announced the launch of the Winglock Swing, an intuitive, elegant new single wing access gate. This gate is specifically designed to either coordinate with the contemporary Speedlane Lifeline series (as an additional specialised lane) or serve as stand-alone single installation. The Winglock Swing offers the user an effortless passageway with carefully thought-out, intuitive LED lights to guide even the most inexperienced visitor through to their destination. A combination of green, orange and red colours displaying static, pulsing and flashing signals effectively guide traffic through without any delays. Energy Saving at its Best The product's developers have engineered sustainable operation on the lowest energy output possible so as to reduce the carbon footprint. Just 9W of energy is used in standby mode and 20W while in motion, a huge accomplishment considering the industry standard is an average of 200W. Secure, Stable and Customisable A new and substantial floor plate design alleviates the need for an additional supporting side post, which notably simplifies installation into the flooring. The gate comes standard in brushed stainless steel, but also has the option for a wide range of finishes or colours based on the trendy Business, Elements or Expressions series. Glass, colours and finishes can also be largely customised to suit your business and brand requirements. Daan van Beusekom, Product Manager, Royal Boon Edam International B.V. says: "There has been a gap in the market for a product which is affordable and accessible, and we have responded by introducing our sleekest access gate. We strive to provide simple and effortless user experiences through our products and are extremely proud that the Winglock Swing meets those requirements, and more." Elegant Disabled and Wide Lane Access Boon Edam is committed to comfortable and safe access for everyone. Free and easy passageway is guaranteed for wheelchairs, large luggage and trollies, making this lane a flexible solution to almost any space.

Turnstile 100 to Feature on Discovery Science Channel This Week
The accredited Discovery Science Channel will be featuring our Boon Edam Turnstile 100 model on an upcoming American episode of 'Machines: How They Work' later this week. The Full Height Turnstile is one of our heavy duty security access control products ideally suited for perimeter security. Discover The Show The 30 minute episode will air this week Thursday 28th April 2016 at 10pm (EDT). Each episode delves into the intricate and fascinating ways in which everyday machines work. Using exceptional photo-realistic CGI animation, the show explores the intricate components of various machines and helps the audience understand how they are manufactured and ultimately operate after installation. Security is a Hot Topic This episode is set to answer the question: How does a turnstile allow authorised people to enter, but stop intruder in their tracks? The topic is hot in the world right now, with all eyes on security and helping people feel safe in public environments. The building and assembly component of the segment was shot in North Carolina at Boon Edam's Lillington manufacturing plant, and the turnstiles in operation are at Cree Research in Research Triangle Park (NC). The location's primary reason for having this turnstile installed is to prevent intruders from entering their secure area. "What an honor to be selected by Discovery Channel to be featured on this program," said Mark Borto, Boon Edam, America CEO. "For many, a turnstile is nothing special, but the way this program explains the manufacture and use of the humble turnstile demonstrates there is a lot more going on than meets the eye." We look forward to hearing your feedback on the segment.

The TravelSky certification reassures airports working with the TravelSky information services that Boon Edam's Airport Swinglane meets the high international standards of the industry. This includes the guarantee that it will work flawlessly with the software systems they have installed to deliver reliable operation and optimal passenger experience. Aligned Vision for Global Aviation Standards TravelSky aims to be a leading provider of information technology services and become a world-class company with international competitiveness.

Self-service solutions such as self-service boarding gates and pre-screening security gates give back control to the passenger and therefore reduce stress levels. The certification of Boon Edam's Airport Swinglane ensures these advantages become available at Chinese airports as well.

Design Meets Security: Boon Edam Launches Revolutionary Access Control Barrier Series Worldwide
Edam, The Netherlands - The business world is ever changing. With people passing through all day long, the security of sensitive areas of buildings, as well as the personal safety of the people visiting must be guaranteed. Recognising this, Boon Edam has created a brand new security product range to manage the flow of people in and around a building. But how can a secure entrance environment be achieved whilst still being inviting? The Ultimate Entry Experience The ever changing business world has seen traditional 9-5 working days being replaced with a twenty-four seven culture. With this, a new view on building security is required as it becomes increasingly difficult to keep track of who is in the building, where and when. Using new technologies and premium materials, Boon Edam has developed the New Speedlane Lifeline Series. An innovative and highly customisable security barrier for access control, which launches worldwide this June. On their journey to determine the requirements for the new product range, Boon Edam studied the behaviour of pedestrian mobility and listened to architects, building managers and tenants alike. This insight opened up a whole new world of possibilities for the company to create something truly unique. "As work environments become increasingly dynamic, the need for increased security measures within buildings grows. Knowing this, we started seeing things from a new perspective to step ahead and meet changing demands." explains Product Manager Daan van Beusekom. "As the name 'Lifeline' indicates, the product is alive and living. A sophisticated entry management system, we have designed the Speedlane Lifeline Series to be intuitive, interacting with all who approach it and guiding visitors through a secure gateway to their destination." Intuitive, Interactive, Innovative Taking into consideration their findings, Boon Edam has launched the exquisitely designed, Speedlane Lifeline Series. The new product range, which includes the slimmest security barrer in the industry, consists of three models, the Slide, Swing and Open, each of which are available in a variety of options. Whether it's for a higher security level or disabled access, numerous combinations are possible. Recognising that each installation is different, the modular systems mean the product is highly customisable. Customers can accentuate their chosen product by selecting from an array of different colour options and finishes. Whether making a statement, fitting with corporate identity colours or creating a harmonious interior design.

Boon Edam Takes Revolving Doors to the Next Level
Dubai, United Arab Emirates - The Burj Khalifa broke numerous records when it opened in 2010. The tallest building in the world boasts the tallest free standing structure, the highest number of stories, highest occupied floor and the elevator with the longest travel distance. Recently it has added another record to its resume: 'At the top - Burj Khalifa Sky' is now the highest outdoor observation deck on Earth. Boon Edam has its own share in this newest record and installed the highest revolving door in the world to access to new viewing platform On Top of the World The UAE are renowned for their record breaking structures, with the Burj Khalifa a highlight on the list. Opened in 2010, it has been the tallest building in the world for the past five years and is likely to maintain this record for some time. When it opened, the highest outdoor observation deck was on the 124th floor. The new 'At the Top - Burj Khalifa Sky' is not quite literally at the top of the building, but on the 148th of 160+ floors, comes close. This new outdoor viewing platform gives visitors who don't have a fear of heights a stunning view over the city 555m below them. Technical Feat Having installed the revolving doors on the 124th floor observation deck as well, Boon Edam were contacted again to provide the entry to the new deck. At these incredible heights, the demands placed on the entry are more extensive than in your run of the mill building. They have to be able to withstand winds of up 3000 Pascal, or an F3 class Tornado, more than 4 times as much as a normal revolving door would be able to handle. For the deck on the 124th floor, Boon Edam were the only manufacturer able to meet this challenge. With these revolving doors functioning to full satisfaction for five years already, Boon Edam were the obvious choice to provide the new door as well. Another Challenge Boon Edam installed the same specially engineered Tourniket revolving door on the 148th floor as they have done on the 124th floor. This new project however posed an additional challenge: moving all materials from the basement to the 148th floor. All materials first had to be taken up to the 111th floor in one lift, then transferred to a second lift that would take it up to the 149th floor from where everything had to be manually brought one floor down to the 148th floor where the door was to be installed.

Use oil and gas for plastics, not electricity
Here's a thought: let's stop dumping fossil-fuels into power grids, and instead pump oil and gas into industries that need it to make goods like plastics and fertilizers. It's not our thought, but the stance of Ignacio Sánchez Galán, executive chairman of Spain's Iberdrola, a leading electric company globally, and the world's largest renewable energy operator.
As Galán told the Financial Times:
"Can we live in the future without things like fertilisers, plastics and certain types of polymers?" he said in an interview with the Financial Times. "How is urea going to be produced and most industrial goods going to be produced without oil? We do not currently have alternatives for these products. However, we do have alternatives for energy production." His remarks add a new element to the debate about high oil prices and their impact on the economy and companies. Industries such as chemicals, plastics and tyre-making use large amounts of oil in manufacturing processes.
Mr Galán said he was also concerned about oil reserves, which he described as "scarce and getting scarcer". He said: "Do we want to be responsible for burning out in our generation, or this century, resources created over millions of years?" He underlined the increasing attractiveness of wind and solar energy, adding: "We must do everything possible to reduce dependence on oil, regardless of the cost."
It's just the kind of sentiment we like hear from an electric company head honcho.
Iberdrola's based on the other side of the pond, but expect to hear more about the company over here. Last month the company committed to investing $8 billion in renewables in the US over the next two years. The plan is to more than double Iberdrola's wind power capacity in the states, where it already has some 2,400 MW of power.

Board Chair Message
At the NSLC, we've gone from being a place to buy beverage alcohol to a place where our customers enjoy an exceptional shopping experience. This transformation was made possible by the strength and experience of our employees and leaders, by investing in innovative technology that allows us to work smarter and more efficiently and by good Board governance.
The talent and experience of the teams we have in place across the organization coupled with the vision of our Board support our success in being a responsive and responsible retailer. I believe strong and effective governance leads to better business decisions and that effective Board oversight is vital to our success.
Members of the NSLC's Board of Directors are maintaining their commitment to best governance practices by continuing to upgrade their skills through such initiatives as membership in the Canadian Institute of Corporate Directors and Governance Professionals of Canada and by conducting an annual review of our committees and Board Charter. I am pleased to report this commitment to best governance practices resulted in our movement to Third Party Compliance Reporting. Ethical behaviour is a critical component of the NSLC's Code of Business Conduct and corporate values. We want to ensure we operate transparently and continuously make improvements to the business.
We had a very successful year, delivering a strong dividend of $239.2 million to our shareholder, the Province of Nova Scotia. One hundred per cent of the NSLC's profits are returned to our Shareholder to fund key public services. I'm proud to see our efforts to cultivate the growth of local products are working as evidenced by across the board market sales growth in all Nova Scotia product categories. We are deeply committed to continuing and building upon our support of the local breweries, distilleries, cider makers and farm wineries invested in communities across Nova Scotia.
Several factors contributed to our success last year. We continued to diligently control expenses, made technology improvements that drove efficiencies and cost savings and offered our customers value in all product categories. I am pleased to report that these efforts resulted in a $4.3 million increase in sales and the average dollar value of each transaction grew by 0.7 per cent, putting us more than $5 million ahead of our net income target for the year.
Ours is a business that touches upon the lives of most Nova Scotians - directly through our product offerings and indirectly through the investments we make in communities and organizations. We are accountable to our customers and our Shareholder so it's important that Corporate Social Responsibility is integral to the way we run our business. It's ingrained in everything we do.
I am pleased by our efforts over the past year with The Port by NSLC in Halifax and our NSLC Express stores ensuring our stores reflect what our customers want in the varied markets that we serve. I am happy to report we are continuing to move forward, investing up to $6 million in refreshing more than 30 of our small stores across the province in the next three years.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank our more than 1400 employees who work so diligently to serve our customers. They are working to exceed our customers' expectations, committed to ensuring each trip through the doors of our stores exceeds their expectations.

Attract birds to your yard with home-made environmentally friendly gourd bird houses. You can make several in an afternoon and have fun doing it. You can keep it simple or you can tap into your playful side.
How to:
Getting the gourd
Ask around at local farms and farmer's markets. There is a good chance that you will find some already dried. If so, you can start making your birdhouse right away.
If you plan ahead, you can grow your own gourds. How cool would that be?!
Drying the gourd
The easiest way to dry your gourds is to spread them out in a box and place them in the garage for the winter. They are going to mold on the outside a bit no matter what you do: no worries. Check on your gourds: if a gourd is rotting (i.e. the shell is getting soft), you should discard it so it won't spoil the others.
Cleaning your gourd
Some people soak their gourds in a bleach solution to remove the mold. I don't like to use bleach more than necessary and I find it isn't necessary here. Either way you will need to scrub and wash and even scrap your gourd clean. It takes a bit of elbow grease. Don't you like the patterns left on its skin?
Drilling the holes
Use a drill bit for the size you want your birdhouse hole to be. You can find suggested birdhouse hole size for specific birds online. I used a two inch (diameter) hole for the birdhouse seen here.
I also drilled small drainage holes in the bottom of the gourd just in case rain should get inside.
Finished birdhouse has linseed oil applied.
Finishing the birdhouse(s)
Find salvaged paint (your own or someone else's leftover paint). I found a small container of exterior paint at the Restore and used that to paint one of my birdhouses. I also used the two hole pieces, from the door openings which I painted white, for the eyes of this amusing birdhouse. I used Gorilla glue to attach them.
For my other gourd, I applied linseed oil. Linseed oil is a natural oil used as a wood preservative and is made from flax seeds. Use a rag to rub on a thin layer of oil. If using multiple coats, allow to dry between applications. The linseed oil will give the gourd a polished look and will help repel the rain. Linseed oil doesn't preserve your birdhouse for as long as other products but you can compost the old and make a new.
Hanging the gourd birdhouse
Use a piece of scrap rope/ string or even an old shoe lace to hang your finished birdhouse. If you want to be fancier, you can bend an old coat hanger into a hook. First drill two holes to slide the wire through.
This purchased birdhouse has an orange stain on it. Stain is nice because it gives the birdhouse a color but the natural look of the birdhouse shows through. The diameter hole for this birdhouse is 2 inches. I placed this orange gourd birdhouse outside my front door where it is sheltered by our house roof. It is hanging on the wall of our house. Despite the fact that wren birdhouse hole sizes are recommended to be much smaller, a pair of wrens moved into our gourd birdhouse and successfully raised six chicks last summer (2009).
I hope they will be back, I do love wrens. On a side note, I've seen wrens go in/ out of our gourd birdhouse in the winter. I assumed that it or they were seeking shelter from the cold. This is one of the baby birds that left the nest that day. So cute!
This is a snapshot of the mother or father wren that worked tirelessly feeding all those babies!

List entry Description
Summary of Monument
Motte castle 120m south west of Glanarrow.
Reasons for Designation
Motte castles are medieval fortifications introduced into Britain by the Normans. They comprised a large conical mound of earth or rubble, the motte, surmounted by a palisade and a stone or timber tower. In a majority of examples an embanked enclosure containing additional buildings, the bailey, adjoined the motte. Motte castles and motte-and-bai1ey castles acted as garrison forts during offensive military operations, as strongholds, and, in many cases, as aristocratic residences and as centres of local or royal administration. Built in towns, villages and open countryside, motte castles generally occupied strategic positions dominating their immediate locality and, as a result, are the most visually impressive monuments of the early post-Conquest period surviving in the modern landscape. Over 600 motte castles and motte-and-bailey castles are recorded nationally, with examples known from most regions. Some 100-150 examples do not have baileys and are classified as motte castles. As one of a restricted range of recognised early post-Conquest monuments, they are particularly important for the study of Norman Britain and the development of the feudal system. Although many were occupied for only a short period of time, motte castles continued to be built and occupied from the 11th to the 13th centuries, after which they were superseded by other types of castle.
Despite tree growth the motte castle 120m south west of Glanarrow survives well and will contain archaeological and environmental evidence relating to its construction, development, longevity, social, political, economic and strategic significance, domestic arrangements, abandonment and overall landscape context.
See Details.
This record was the subject of a minor enhancement on 26 May 2015. The record has been generated from an "old county number" (OCN) scheduling record. These are monuments that were not reviewed under the Monuments Protection Programme and are some of our oldest designation records.
This monument includes a motte castle situated in the valley of the River Arrow close to its southern bank. The motte survives as a circular mound measuring up to 44.8m in diameter and 4.8m high with a smooth profile and flat top surrounded by a water-filled moat which is up to 3.6m deep. Access to the mound across the ditch is via a low bridge. The moat or ditch has been regularly cleared since the 1800's. It is also known historically by the alternative name of 'Twyford Castle'.
Further archaeological remains in the vicinity are the subject of a separate scheduling.

As this endless election limps toward its last days, while spiraling into a bizarre duel over vote-rigging accusations, a deep sigh is undoubtedly in order. The entire process has been an emotionally draining, frustration-inducing, rage-inflaming spectacle of repellent form over shallow substance. For many, the third debate evoked fatigue. More worrying, there was again no discussion of how to prevent another financial crisis, an ominous possibility in the next presidency, whether Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton enters the Oval Office—given that nothing fundamental has been altered when it comes to Wall Street's practices and predation.
At the heart of American political consciousness right now lies a soul-crushing reality for millions of distraught Americans: The choices for president couldn't be feebler or more disappointing. On the one hand, we have a petulant, vocabulary-challenged man-boar of a billionaire, who hasn't paid his taxes, has regularly left those supporting him holding the bag, and seems like a ludicrous composite of every bad trait in every bad date any woman has ever had. On the other hand, we're offered a walking photo-op for and well-paid speechmaker to Wall-Street CEOs, a one-woman money-raising machine from the 1 percent of the 1 percent, who, despite a folksiness that couldn't look more rehearsed, has methodically outplayed her opponent.
With less than two weeks to go before E-day—despite the Trumptilian upheaval of the last year—the high probability of a Clinton win means the establishment remains intact. When we awaken on November 9, it will undoubtedly be dawn in Hillary Clinton's America, and that potentially means four years of an economic dystopia that will (as would Donald Trump's version of the same) leave many Americans rightfully anxious about their economic futures.
None of the three presidential debates suggested that either candidate would have the ability (or desire) to confront Wall Street from the Oval Office. In the second and third debates, in case you missed them, Hillary didn't even mention the Glass-Steagall Act, "too big to fail," or Wall Street—while in the first debate, the subject of Wall Street came up only after she disparaged the tax policies of "Trumped-up, trickle down economics" (or, as I like to call it, the Trumpledown economics of giving tax and financial benefits to the rich and to corporations).
In this election, Hillary has crafted her talking points regarding the causes of the last financial crisis as weapons against Trump, but they hardly begin to tell the real story of what happened to the American economy. The meltdown of 2007–08 was not mainly due to "tax policies that slashed taxes on the wealthy" or a "failure to invest in the middle class," two subjects she has repeatedly highlighted to slam the Republicans and their candidate. It was a byproduct of the destruction of the regulations that opened the way for the framework that allowed "too big to fail" to thrive. Under the presidency of Bill Clinton, Glass-Steagall, the Depression-era act that once separated people's bank deposits and loans from any kind of risky bets or other similar actions in which banks might engage, was repealed with the Financial Modernization Act of 1999. In addition, the Commodity Futures Modernization Act was passed, which allowed Wall Street to concoct devastating unregulated side bets on what became the subprime crisis.

Thanks for the notice.
For others:
Check your delrin hardware on your Domke bags. Each of mine had broken plastic hardware on the strap.
That's interesting. I've been using them for years and never had an issue. I currently carry the f1-x with about 35 lbs. in it. I keep an eye on it, but no issues so far. Appreciate the heads up.

Despite rumors that he'd be filming quite a lot of "Star Wars : Episode VII" in the IMAX format, director JJ Abrams tells Variety that it's really only one sequence that was captured with the IMAX cameras.
The benefits outweigh the headache of shooting on IMAX cameras. The opportunity to have an action sequence for this movie done in IMAX's natural format was too delicious an idea to pass up. As a filmgoer, it's something I want to see.
No word on what sequence Abrams has shot in IMAX but the cameras were spotted on the 'Tatooine' set earlier this year, so chances are it'll be for something spectacular in the sands.
Abrams' installments in the "Mission : Impossible" and "Star Trek" series also integrated IMAX sequences.

Pilates was originally developed by Joseph Pilates in the 1920's.
Pilates is a conditioning exercise programme that targets the deep postural muscles of the abdomen and spine to improve overall central core stability and posture. Pilates can help improve and maintain good posture, flexibility, strength and a balanced peace of mind.
Clinical pilates is a series of mat based exercises in various different body positions which have been adapted by Physiotherapists to make them more suitable for patients with back and neck pain, those recovering from injury and ante and post natal ladies.
Clinical Pilates is a relaxing and gentle form of exercise. My 1:1 approach ensures that the exercises are being performed correctly and can be adapted to the person's individual needs.
Evidence supports the use of the Pilates method in the prevention and rehabilitation of back injuries. By retraining the deep abdominal and spinal muscles, Pilates can help to prevent the recurrence of back pain in combination with correct back care and advice, and gentle aerobic activity.
I provide an ante and post natal clinical Pilates service, which is a 1:1 approach, based in the clinic. I will assess you for weaknesses and tight areas and then create a Pilates exercise programme tailored to your individual needs. This will be monitored and progressed during your pregnancy and post natal period.

A computer is essentially a physical machine or system which can perform predefined actions via receiving input and then outputting useful information/results. For example a modern-day computer can receive input (such as words typed into a word processing software such as Microsoft Word), and then it will process that information and output it in a useful format (i.e. as a document which can then easily be edited and added to). As a result, the first ever computer was the abacus; the physical counting system which allowed people to perform basic arithmetic operations (such as addition and subtraction):
The first ever computer is an abacus and the first abacus was thought to be created in around 2,700-3,000 BC - so around 5,000 years ago! This was the earliest record of a relatively substantial physical system which allowed for something (in this case, arithmetic operations) to be computed - at least, at its time it was a substantial invention! And as a result, the abacus is often regarded as the first ever computer system. In the subsequent millennia there were numerous other mathematical systems invented and/or produced, such as the Babbage Difference Engine (proposed in 1822) and Ada Lovelace's computer system in 1843. The first mechanical computers those are the ones which are most similar to modern-day computers were seen throughout the twentieth century.
For example, KonradZuse started work on the Z1 Computer in 1935/36, and it was completed in 1938. Reading instructions in from a punched tape, the Z1 was mechanical and could be programmed to some (albeit minor) extent. In 1981, Microsoft released MS-DOS (not a graphical user interface ['GUI']).
Hence because it was mechanical, could be programmed, and receive input (via punched tape) and then give out output (that is, the solution to the inputted problem) it is classed as the first modern day computer. Unfortunately the Z1 Computer was destroyed just 5 years later during World War II. General use tends to include word processing
The list below covers the history of computers via a timeline from 1938 onwards: Time - Event/Creation - Description of event in 1939 - Hewlett-Packard - HP is founded in Palo Alto, CA, USA (near Stanford University), and HP is currently one of the largest computer companies in the World. The 70s and 80s (along with the internet being launched) laid the groundwork which led to the massive rise in computer popularity.
In the year 1943 - Colossus - Using vacuum tubes, the programmable Colossus was used during the war to help British code breakers decrypt German messages and in year 1944 - Harvard Mark I - Also known as the IBM Automatic Sequence Controlled Calculator, the Mark I was shipped to Harvard in 1944 and was used by the US Navy, it was heralded as one of the most reliable and stable computers of its time.
In 1946 - ENIAC 1 Computer - The Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer was like the Harvard Mark I which is another big leap forward in terms of computational power and in the year 1950 - Games - Alan Turing writes the first computer program to simulate chess, whilst America started using computers to simulate military operations via 'war games'.
In 1951 - UNIVAC - the Universal Automatic Computer was the first computer designed with commercial intent and was delivered to the US Government to help calculate and tabulate the 1950 census and this year 1950s there are many developments - including Fortran (the first general use programming language) being created by IBM.
In many ways the 50s was the "software" era; this term (which refers to programmed computer software programs) became an understood term throughout the industry. The year 1961 - Space war and this was the first well known digital computer game, created by Steve Russell and others, followed by 1969 - ARPANET - The USA's Department of Defenselaid the groundwork for ARPANET, the initial internet.
In 1970s - Many developments - including Intel producing the first RAM chip in 1970 along with the first processor (CPU) in 1971, IBM and Alan Shugart creating the floppy disc (also in 1971), Robert Metcalfe and Xerox creating the first Ethernet computing network in 1973, IBM releasing the first consumer computer in 1974 and then - a couple of years later in 1976/77 - Apple releasing the Apple I and TRS-80, along with the Commodore.
In the year 1980s - Even more developments came up as can be seen; the 1970s (above) were somewhat of a turning point for technological advancement. The T1 line is invented (which later becomes a source for high speed Internet) for large quantities of simultaneous digital voice communication, ERMA (the first banking computer) being created, MICR (used for reading checks automatically) being invented and Silicon Valley slowly being recognized as a technological area.
The 80s continued on this with mainly Apple and Microsoft battling it out by starting to release the first graphical user interfaces (i.e. operating systems which can be used in a user-friendly manner). But after Apple released Apple Lisa in 1983 (which was a computer with a GUI operating system), Microsoft released Windows (also a user-friendly GUI) in 1985. IBM also released a few noticeable computers throughout the 80s. Thanks to Apple and Microsoft, these user friendly computers started to see a relatively fast rise in personal computer's popularity.
The Internet In 1990, Sir Tim Berners-Lee et al was officially launched and (like personal computers in the 80s) started to see a fairly sharp rise in popularity and 1990-Present absolutely loads. Throughout the 1990s and 2000s (the 'naughtiest'), computing power kept growing massively and computer prices kept falling. So many different things happened in the computer industry over this 20 year period that this article would turn into an essay if every event was listed here! In short, computing turned from a million dollar industry in the 70s and 80s into a trillion dollar industry in today's day and age!
