We couldn't have bought this colt two or three years ago, but we're hoping to take advantage of the changes in the market, because this is the type of colt that can take you to the big dance. He's a big stout colt, but a little more refined than most Dynaformers, representative of the better mares he has gotten since Barbaro won the Kentucky Derby(G1).
Dynaformer's legend as one of the great stallions of our era grows stronger every year, and 2010 is no exception with the likely champion two-year-old filly in England White Moonstone, American Oaks(G1) winner Harmonious, and group or graded winners Bearpath, It's Tea Time, Americain, Rainbow View, Le Grand Cru, Temple City, and Haka carrying him into the top 15 on the sire list again.
Dynaformer has sired 119 stakes winners, including champions McDynamo and Rainbow View and classic winners Barbaro, Lucarno and Wiener Walzer, and a total of 19 Grade 1 winners. Dynaformer has already sired Grade 1 winner Purim out of a Lord At War mare, and this colt is closely related to two of Lord At War's good runners and one of his greatest broodmare daughters.
His dam, Must Be a Lady, by Lord At War, won four races and earned $150,707, and had plenty of speed, winning allowance races at Keeneland (2) and Gulfstream Park at six and 6 ½ furlongs. She is a full sister to $682,462 multiple stakes winner Warleigh and Grade 3 winner Must Be War, and half sister to stakes winner Temperalles, by Temperence Hill, dam of another good stakes winner in Tempered Appeal, by Valid Appeal. The second dam is half sister to three stakes winners, including the great broodmare Primarily, who is also by Lord At War, dam of champions Primaly and Poetically and Grade 1 winner Citronnade.
This is a colt with a classic pedigree, inbred 4x5 to the powerful classic influence Ribot. Dynaformer gets two-year-olds, classic horses, dirt and turf Grade 1 winners, so the sky's the limit with this colt. He has a dosage of 1.6. He screams Classic contender.

Since the departure of Luis Suarez and Steven Gerrard, Philippe Coutinho has emerged as the new Liverpool sensation.
His invaluable contribution for the Reds' has made him a subject of interest among several top European sides for quite sometime now. Although he was brought by former boss Brendan Rodgers, the Brazilian midfielder has been equally successful in Klopp's style of display and proved to be the game-changer as well as match-winner in several occasions.
But a few questions have been raised since Liverpool's 4-1 victory over Premier League champions Leicester City where their fluidity in attacking third was applauded by 'The Tinkerman' Claudio Ranieri and his custodian Kasper Schmeichel. Surprisingly, Klopp rested Coutinho against the Foxes and the fans witnessed a new dimension of Liverpool attack with the trio of Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and Adam Lallana behind striker Daniel Sturridge.
Klopp will definitely be in dilemma whether to field the winning squad against Chelsea this Friday or to start Coutinho, who proved to be the game-changer last time at Stamford Bridge.
So let's have an analysis of his strength, weakness and what he is capable of :
How he strengthens the Reds Line-up:
Coutinho, popular as "little magician", has all attributes to be considered as a superstar of football. He can single-handedly turn the momentum of a game with his majestic dribbling skills, shooting ability and long range efforts. For example, Liverpool have already seen his best during this campaign in their opening fixture against Arsenal, when his breathtaking free-kick left the Gunners custodian Petr Cech spellbound completely against the run of play. Coutinho changed the fate of the game and the Reds eventually won 4-3 as he netted a brace. Although he started as a number 10, Klopp shifted him to left hand side and since then he has terrorized the defense of all big guns – Manchester City, Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United.
His weakness and limitations:
Coutinho has to improve a few things as soon as possible. He has proved himself a big game player, but his performance against smaller sides is not yet up to the mark. Also, his defensive work-rate is minimal and does not track back to help his defense to deal with counter-attacks. Burnley switched to ultra-defensive tactics and Coutinho failed big time to break the defense and wasted way too many opportunities unnecessarily with long range efforts.
Daniel Sturridge, however, has been more effective in such kind of scenario with his intelligence, ball skills and off the ball runs to break the opponent defense. Since the arrival of Sadio Mane who has been in stunning form along with Adam Lallana and Roberto Firmino, who started the campaign equally impressively, Klopp now has a big task ahead how to rotate his attackers and although it might sound improbable, Coutinho's place might be jeopardized if he does not fix his deficiencies.
How he can evolve:
Klopp prefers those who are capable of playing in different positions to suit in his 'heavy-metal' style of football. He has used Daniel Sturridge much wider than his usual position, Georginio Wijnaldum and Jordan Henderson as defensive screens instead of playing them box to box. Roberto Firmino has adjusted to it and has been effective in several roles: False 9, centre forward, winger and also as a number 10. Coutinho needs to explore and start seeing himself as an all round footballer who will be efficient enough to play in multiple roles. Also, he should try to play more centrally in order to contribute further against sides who usually park the bus.
However, Coutinho is one of the biggest stars of Liverpool as well as Premier League. The ongoing competition among the Reds' attackers will improve his quality and help him to overcome his limitations and deploy his mastery.

When I started at Citrix 7 years ago, the question I seemed to get the most was "How many users can I get on each box?". Of course, we were talking XenApp back then, but that's not really the point – the point is my answer was almost always "It depends!" (which is what any Consultant who's been around the block might say…). If they demanded a number, I sometimes said 2-400 users depending on the hardware, use case and application set. 😉
Once we started virtualizing desktops a few years ago, I started getting a new question from customers – "How many VMs can I get on each box?". And then maybe a year and a half ago, we started figuring this stuff out a little better and began asking more specific and pertinent questions like "How many VMs per core?" and "How many IOPS per VM"? And of course, the answer still depends, but I wanted to take a minute out of my day and tell you why it depends and then give you 2 real-world examples with some actual numbers.
Before I get into the nitty-gritty, a little background. I've picked these 2 deployments on purpose – one represents (almost) the optimal scenario when it comes to design/configuration and minimizing IOPS. The other represents almost the worst-case scenario in terms of IOPS. I think it's important to see the range and what factors play into it. I've also picked these 2 customers because the users utilizing these virtual desktops are "medium-ish" workloads in my eyes and they are both running on similar hardware – UCS blades. So it's almost apples to apples in terms of the use case and hardware.
Customer A:
- Stack: XD4 + PVS561 + XS55
- VM Config: Win7 w/ 1 vCPU, 1 GB RAM and 3 GB wC drive (20 GB vDisk)
- Hardware: 2×6 w/ 96 GB RAM
- App Delivery: XA and AppStreaming for 99% of apps (only 2-3 apps installed locally!)
- Profiles: UPM w/ folder redirection
- AV: None
- Monitoring: ES enabled and redirecting monitoring data to the wC drive
- Optimizations: Yes (according to our best practices)
- Other: XS DMC enabled
- Storage: 100 GB LUNs in RAID10 (~33 VDIs/LUN)
- Density: 120 VMs/box (10 VMs/core)
- Bottleneck: Memory
- IOPS: 7 total average IOPS/VM
Customer B:
- Stack: XD5 + vSphere41 (with TP at the VM layer)
- VM Config: Win7 w/ 1 vCPU, 2 GB RAM and 42 GB image (only using ~29 GB on average due to TP)
- Hardware: 2×8 w/ 256 GB RAM
- App Delivery: All apps installed locally
- Profiles: Local profiles
- AV: McAfee (not "optimized" according to our best practices)
- Monitoring: ES enabled
- Optimizations: Some (definitely not all)
- Other: No VMW memory over-commitment features enabled
- Storage: 1 TB LUNs in RAID5 (23-34 VDIs/LUN depending on how you look at it with over-subscription/TP)
- Density: 110 VMs/box (6.875 VMs/core)
- Bottleneck: CPU
- IOPS: 24 total average IOPS/VM
Pretty interesting, huh? It just goes to show you how widely things can vary, even with similar hardware, use cases and application sets. And while 24 IOPS/VM might sound high, it's really not if you've got a bloated image with everything locally installed and configured incorrectly (storage optimized for reads as opposed to writes, no AV exclusions, missing Win7 optimizations, etc.). It all adds up!
Flip it over to the other side and they are doing everything right. A tiny, optimized image with essentially an online and offline plug-in installed and that's it! And in my mind, a mature application virtualization strategy and the utilization of XenApp is the key. They are abiding by the layers of cake, which means management is a cake-walk and the system is much more predictable and flexible.
Hopefully this sheds some light on why we say "It Depends!". I also hope you enjoyed some of the other stats I provided above, such as the # of VDIs or VMDKs per LUN and the density figures.
And lastly, I'm not going to tell you who these customers are and why we made certain design decisions, so please don't ask me. 😉 I will tell you that "Customer A" engaged Citrix Consulting, however, and "Customer B" did not. 😉

Thadani, C.J.
1. This in an appeal by one Jatindranath Bardoloi who was convicted by the learned Sessions Judge, L.A. Districts, under Section 363, I. P.C. and sentenced to 2 years' R. I. at a trial held with the aid of a jury which brought an unanimous verdict of guilty against the appellant Under Section 363 I.P.C.
2. The case for the prosecution was that on 13-6-1949, at about 8 A. M. the kidnapped girl, Musst, Sarumai, said to be some 13 years of age, was going with her mother to a jute field for weeding. On the way, the appellant who was apparently hiding behind a clump of bamboo trees on the road-side, seized Musst. Sarumai and forcibly dragged her away. Musst. Samurai's mother intervened, but she was overpowered. The appellant then disappeared with the girl. They were joined by 3 other persons who have been acquitted by the jury. One Mohiram and Motirara pursued the appellant, but abandoned the pursuit when they were threat ened by the appellant. The following day the girl's elder brother, called Maheswar Bora, lodged a first information report at Nowgong Police station. A flay later the police secured the girl from the house of the appellant. She was taken before a Magistrate to whom she made a statement. On the completion of the investigation, the appellant and his 3 companions were sent up for trial. At the trial, three charges were framed against the appellant — one under Section 363, another under Section 363, and a third under Section 376, I.P.C. The Jury acquitted the appellant of the charges under Sections 366 and 376, I P.C. but convicted him of the charge under Section 363, I.P.C.
3. Mr. Medhi for the appellant has contended that the learned Judge erred in law in framing a charge against the appellant both under Section 363 and Section 366, I. P.C. and misdirected the jury on the law involved in the two offences, — a misdirection which, according to Mr. Medhi, has led to an erroneous verdict. Mr. Medhi further contended that the learned Judge should have directed the jury that if they disbelieved the prosecution evidence as to the use of force, they should bring a verdict of not guilty, even under Section 363, I. P.C. In support of this contention, Mr. Medhi has relied upon a case reported in 'Krishna Chandra v. Emperor, 45 Cal. W. N., 27. But it is plain from the body of the judgment that in that case there was only one charge Under Section 366, I. P.C. framed against the accused. No separate charge had been framed in that case under Section 363, I. P.C. The learned Judges interfered in that case on the ground that the charge to the jury was for a verdict of a charge under Section 366, I.P.C, upon both heads of abduction and kidnapping, i.e., the charge directed the jury to find whether each of the accused was guilty of the offences of both abduction and kidnapping, which, according to the learned Judges, was a complete misunderstanding of the law.
4. In the case before us, a separate charge was framed against the appellant under Section 363, I. P.C. The jury was clearly within its rights, upon proof of taking away a minor girl from lawful guardianship, to hold the appellant guilty under Section 363, I. P.C. Apparently the jury did not accept the prosecution case that the appellant took the girl away with the intention described in Section 366 of the Indian Penal Code. No authority has been cited to us showing that, where two separate charges have been framed against an accused person — one under Section 363, I. P.C. and another under Section 366, I. P.C. and he is acquitted of the charge under Section 366, I.P.C, he cannot be convicted Under Section 363, I. P.C.
5. We have read the charge to the jury in so far as it relates to the commission of an offence under Section 363, I. P.C. We have been unable to detect any misdirection, whether on facts or on law. There was ample evidence before the Jury to enable it to come to the conclusion that Musst. Sarumai was below the age of 16 years at the date of offence. The Jury had the advantage of seeing the girl, and were in a position to form their own estimate as to her age. Ex. 3 contains an entry as to the age of the girl when she was admitted to the H. E. School on 20-2-47. The girl's age was stated to be 9 years. No objection was taken to the reception of Ex. 3 at the trial. The jury, therefore, had two-fold evidence before it, namely, the evidence of Ex. 3 and the presence of the girl herself in the witness-box. The learned Judge in his summing up brought all the material discrepancies in the evidence as to the age of the girl to the notice of the jury. According to the evidence of the mother of the girl, the girl was about 13 years of age when she was taken away by force by the appellant from her. The jury was entitled to accept this evidence, and apparently they did so. The girl undoubtedly was taken away, whether by force or otherwise, from the lawful guardianship of her mother.
6. The evidence of the mother is corroborated by the evidence of her son who lodged the F.I.R. Musst. Sarumai herself gave evidence as to the circumstances in which she was taken away while she was going to the field with her mother. Witness Tikhai Saikia is an eye-witness to the occurrence. He saw the appellant emerge from a 'bari' catch hold of the girl by force and disappear with her. it was this witness who took the girl's mother home after the offence. P. W. 5 was one of the witnesses who pursued the appellant, but gave up the pursuit on being threatened by the appellant. The prosecution evidence is further corroborated by P. W. 6, officer in charge of the Police station, who secured the girl from the house of the appellant. There was, therefore, ample evidence before the jury to enable it to find the accused guilty Under Section 363, I.P.C.
7. At the conclusion of the appeal, Mr. J, C. Medhi pleaded for a reduction in the sentence on the ground that the appellant was a college student. Mr. D. N. Medhi who appeared for the prosecution stated that if the appellant was still a college student, he would have no objection if the sentence, in the circumstances of this case, was reduced to the period already undergone. We accordingly directed Mr. J. C. Medhi to produce a certificate from the Principal of the College stating that the appellant was still a College-student. A certificate has been produced before us which, however, shows that the appellant was a college student up to the end of May, 1949. The silence in this case was committed on 13-6-49 when the appellant was not a college student. The appellant was on bail during the trial and was also on bail during the pendency of the appeal. Both during the trial and the appeal, the appellant did not re-join the college. We, therefore, decline to reduce the sentence. The conviction and sentence are maintained and the appeal dismissed.
8. Ram Labhaya, J.: I agree.

In the District 34 state House race, one issue overrides all others: Rep. Carl Selph's accident in Tallahassee in the early morning of May 13. The problem is that Mr. Selph refuses to say what happened that night after his car hit a parked car outside the Tallahassee Hilton and then he left the scene.
We agree that everyone has lapses of judgment. But this case appears far more serious than that. There have been conflicting stories since the accident, which was followed by a party at the Hilton attended by Mr. Selph and some fellow legislators. In fact, there have been conflicting stories from Mr. Selph himself.

DIY High-Low Asymmetrical Skirt
Taking inspiration from Geneva over at A Pair and a Spare, I made an asymmetrical, high-low hem skirt using skirt I picked up at my favorite local thrift store. I opted for a more subtle asymmetry than the inspiration tutorial, which is a little less daring and more wearable for me. The fabric is a full-on Monet (Clueless, anyone?) -- it's abstract and watercolor-like up close, but a rose pattern from afar. I cannot wait to wear this while I'm in Puerto Rico this week. In fact, as you read this, I'm en route now! I'll be sure to share photos of this DIY (and others!) in action.

Cute skirt! I love the way you changed it up.ReplyDelete
Puerto Rico! I've never been there, but I've heard it's wonderful. I hope you have an awesome time!
I love this - you did a great job!!ReplyDelete
Have a great time in Puerto Rico!!! That skirt is perfect for it.ReplyDelete
This is a fantastic result! Been wanting to try this to a few old skirts.ReplyDelete
Have a lovely day ahead!
love this! i have been wanting to tackle this DIY too! need to pull out the sewing machine and get busy already!ReplyDelete
It looks fantastic, I LOVE it <3ReplyDelete

Artist support is central to everything we do at CPT. We're not a theatre that does a bit of artist support on the side. It's our priority, and our public programme of work springs from it.
By artist support – aka artist development – we mean supporting early-career artists to make innovative work, helping them establish themselves artistically and structurally, offering them advice, programming their work creatively and finding them an audience – and (not least) giving them a community to be part of and a place to call home. The types of development support we offer include:
- structured schemes in which to develop new work to full production
- seed commission funds, including several for artists of colour
- free rehearsal space
- dramaturgical support and mentoring
- fundraising support
- discount or free tickets to CPT shows
- opportunities to become involved in the life of our theatre
- associate artist scheme
- fees for performances and contributions towards travel and accommodation
Any donations, large or small, will go directly towards our work with emerging artists, and are, of course, hugely appreciated!

Figuring this would be a long day, we got an early start. We left the Marble Canyon Lodge, our home for the night, before 8.
Our first stop on this long and exciting drive was at the cliff dwellings under the Vermillion Cliffs. The location was not far from that rustic restaurant at Lee's Ferry Lodge where we had a delightful birthday dinner the night before.
What a difference the light makes, though. You can see on the left a shot I took that evening showing the Vermillion Cliffs above the restaurant. And again, the same cliffs in early morning above the cliff dwellings. Here's more…
We actually had no concrete itinerary for the day. Our intention was to drive to Kanab, Utah (see the above map) and see what we can find about the Wave hike and lottery. And then depending on what that turns out to be, we thought we might go up to Bryson Canyon or Zion or maybe even both.
When we got to Kanab, we found out that we would have to spend two days there just to find out if we would win the lottery for the Wave hike. And the odds were 1 in 6 (10 slots for about 60 people who show up every morning).
"Forget that," I said. "Let's go up to the Bryson Canyon" (about a two-hour drive from Kanab (see the map). "The picture I posted should suffice," I added.
Boy, was that ever the right thing to do. You'll see in a minute the fabulous scenery that we encountered there. But first, check out this roadside breakfast scenery we picked for ourselves randomly just a few miles north of Kanab. It was a side road, just off Hwy 89.
It was very peaceful and relaxing.
We were unprepared for the beauty that awaited us even before we got to the Bryce Canyon. Check out this pictures we took in the Red Canyon, which is sort of a gateway to Bryce.
"This is eye candy," I told Elizabeth as I was snapping the shots, some from the car.
We even passed through some cute tunnels along the way.
And then, finally, we entered the spectacular, awe-inspiring, unforgettable, one-of-a-kind Bryce Canyon. This description of it from the National Parks website fits it to a tee:
Hoodoos and forest mixed together
There is no place quite like Bryce Canyon. Hoodoos (odd-shaped pillars of rock left standing from the forces of erosion) can be found on every continent, but here is the archetypal "hoodoo-iferous" terrain. Descriptions fail. Cave without a roof? Forest of stone? Even photographs strain credulity. When you visit maybe you'll come up with a better name. In the meantime "Bryce" will have to suffice.
Here are some panorama shots of the Bryce Canyon from the Sunset Point. As we marveled over this vista, we had not idea that it took God 50 million years to create this wonder of nature out of limestone.
That's almost three human development cycles (each cycle is about 18 million years long). To put things in perspective, two million human generations had lived and died while the Bryce Canyon was being created.
At the 8,000-ft+ elevation, the temperatures were in the 60s F. During the day they ranged from 64F to 69F. There was also a steady breeze. Not as strong as on the North Rim the day before, but enough to cool things off a bit more.
"Let's go now," Elizabeth surprised me when we reached the trailhead of the 1.3-mile Navajo Trail.
I was delighted to see that she was so keen on doing it even though it looked rather foreboding from the top. Elizabeth generally does not do well on uphill slopes. But I guess the beauty of the place distracted her enough to overcome the physical challenges of the trail.
Navajo Trail begins at Sunset Point and travels down into the main amphitheater at the bottom of the canyon. Here are the trail stats:
|Total Distance:
|1.3 miles
2.16 km
|550 feet
167 m
|550 feet
167 m
|7479/8000 feet
2279/2438 m
But the stats cannot describe the joy and the beauty of doing the trail. And the elation at the end, after we had climbed down and up about 1,100 ft on switchbacks and even some stairs.
Along the way, about half way down the Navajo Trail, there was a little tunnel. Subconsciously at the time, we took two photos – one from each side. Afterward, I realized why. It was the Yin-Yang point of the trail., the point of perfect balance.
I was also delighted to see some very old and decrepit-looking people on this trail. They went from switchback to switchback, from shade to shade, taking a break and resting at each point. But they kept going. And going.
"It's all a matter of mind over matter," as I have said many times before. "If you don't mind, it doesn't matter."
And then, we had to start climbing back up again…
But it was all worth it. Take a look at some of these panorama shots taken from the trail.
And then, finally back up at the top of Sunset Point.
"Yeah! I've done it!" Elizabeth exclaimed at the end of the trail.
I was also impressed that she did so well, especially considering the trail's 8,000 ft elevation. Back to "mind over matter"…
After a short pit stop and water break, we continued our drive down
the Bryce Canyon for another 15 miles or so to its farthest and highest point (9,100 ft) – poignantly named the Rainbow Point. It seemed like the place especially named for two people who hail from the Rainbow Shower in Maui. 🙂
Here are some pictures from the various points at which we stopped along the way (see the map – right).
And finally, the Rainbow Point …
"Rainbow Bob" at Rainbow Point
On our way back up the canyon, we stopped to look at a Natural Bridge.
That's where we encountered a Raven, coolly posing on top of rail post. He stayed there for us for several minutes. And then he fluttered away, as if saying, "okay, you've had enough. The show's over." 🙂
It was the third sacred animal that showed up for us in physical for on this trip (for two other sightings, see BIRTHDAY AT THE NORTH RIM, RUSTIC DINNER, DEER, CONDOR SIGHTINGS, June 3). Little did we know that there was going to be one more later that afternoon.
Here's more on the spiritual meaning of Raven…
Raven as Your Totem
If Raven is your Totem animal you are very playful and creative. You have no fear of the dark, or the underworld and understand that there is a divine balance between the light and the dark. You find comfort in solitude and enjoy your own company. Raven seeks stillness and quiet, and prefer it to the constant onslaught of chatter and noise in our daily lives. You are wise and often are used as a messenger for others. The spirit world uses you as a bridge to the physical world to bring forth its messages (Source: http://www.spirit-animals.com/raven/).
Spot on again, I would say. I am sure Elizabeth would also second that summary.
On our way out of the National Park, I received another gift from the spirit realm. Not more than 100 yards from the gate, we were stopped by flashing lights and the siren of a Park Ranger SUV.
It turns out I was speeding – driving 45 mph in a 30 mph zone. The 45 mph was the normal speed in the rest of the Park. But it had apparently dropped to 30 mph just before the exit.
After the usual preliminaries and a driver's license check, the park ranger decided to let me off with just a verbal warning,
"Thank you, Spirits," I said as we drove away.
I knew right away that this was my final birthday gift.
Here's also a "kulla" I brought home from the Red/Bryce Canyons. Most of the rocks there are Limestone. But this one seems to be a well polished Quartz. Polished by what? (given that there was no water nearby).
And that's all she wrote from our first visit to the Bryce Canyon, unquestionable the best part of our four-day adventure.
TO BE CONTINUED… at the ZION NATIONAL PARK.

A New Elimination Game: ESPN Sued Over Fantasy Sports Game
On Thursday, June 25, Suicide Fantasy Sports LLC filed a lawsuit in a California federal court over alleged patent infringement with respect to one of ESPN's fantasy sports games. In the complaint, Suicide alleges that ESPN's "Gridiron Challenge" uses an elimination-based or "suicide" fantasy sports model that infringes on its patent from 2013.
According to the complaint, Suicide reached out to ESPN in 2013 regarding the patent and a potential license. ESPN declined, explaining that it would be discontinuing the elimination part of its game. However, Suicide alleged that ESPN again launched the "Gridiron Challenge" in 2014 and "recanted on its previous position and did not indicate an intent to cease use.
Suicide seeks an injunction to prevent ESPN from continuing to infringe on its patent and asks for damages enhanced and/or trebled for willful infringement. ESPN has not yet been reached for comment.

SOURCE: Innotas
January 14, 2008 07:00 ET
Emerging as a "Must Have" Application for Mid-Size and Large Enterprises
SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwire - January 14, 2008) - Key trends emerging in late 2007 and 2008
include the increased need for collaboration inside and outside the
enterprise; the desire for deeper real-time resource management and analysis; and
the continued and explosive growth of software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications. These trends place
the spotlight on on-demand Project
Portfolio Management (PPM), which is emerging as a must-have enterprise
application in 2008, says Demian Entrekin, founder and CTO of on-demand PPM provider Innotas (www.innotas.com).
On-demand PPM applications are changing the way organizations approve, plan
and deliver projects inside and outside the enterprise, and are
significantly increasing and improving ROI on project investments.
"PPM has followed in the footsteps of CRM and ERP by transitioning from a
'nice to have' into a 'must have.' In the private sector, PPM has become a
competitive necessity, especially within industries where time-to-market,
quality and cost control are key success factors. In the public sector, PPM
improves financial accountability for programs and projects, and gives
management a new level of visibility into project and resource status,"
continued Entrekin.
For 2008, Entrekin identifies seven key trends that will drive the
continued growth of on-demand PPM applications in mid-size and large
1. Team Collaboration: SaaS PPM applications are designed from scratch to
operate securely over the web, which means that teams within and across
different organizational boundaries can easily access their application and
real-time information. PPM applications also provide appropriate levels of
user visibility and controls without sacrificing security -- important
advantages of using a PPM solution instead of a traditional Project
Management solution.
2. Collaboration across Organizations: Projects often require the
participation of different organizations with different reporting
structures. This can create significant challenges to a project, and to the
project portfolio. SaaS PPM is ideally suited to solve these challenges
because new team members can be added easily, and can be assigned unlimited
hierarchy levels to support both simple and complex organizations and
reporting requirements. Moreover, PPM solutions are beginning to drive more
and more collaborative capabilities that are fully integrated into the work
plan and reporting systems, so that the solution captures knowledge and
information and makes it available to broader audiences in real time.
3. PPM Domains and Standardized Implementations: Similar to the fact that
there are best practices for configuring a chart of accounts for financial
accounting, best practices are now emerging for implementing PPM
applications that mitigate both risk and cost. One emerging best practice
is the ability to break down PPM into "domains" that enable organizations
to manage, prioritize, and deliver projects more efficiently.
4. Deeper Analytics: PPM applications now provide more meaningful analytics
to all layers of management. In 2008 look for SaaS PPM to incorporate push
automation so that all team members will have access to the PPM information
that is most meaningful to them.
5. Web Services: PPM applications need to integrate with other applications
in order to house and communicate all project information -- status,
financial, resource, etc. -- to key project constituents. Web Services
provide a compelling alternative to traditional integration approaches
because they enable new applications to be connected to PPM apps via a
single API, they are publicly available over the Internet, and they are
highly standardized. Web Services style integration over the public
Internet will remove a great deal of the idiosyncratic nature of
point-to-point integration that exists today, reducing cost, improving
reliability and accelerating the ability to connect applications in a
meaningful way.
6. The Web as a Service: With more and more services coming online every
day, the web offers a wealth of opportunities to complement PPM including
search, best practices, blogs, wikis, content management, and much more.
This is a marriage made in heaven because these services can be easily
wrapped within, and integrated into the on-demand PPM experience.
7. Continued growth of SaaS: SaaS applications are extremely appealing to
the new breed of business users who demand that their application software
matches the simplicity and delivery of web tools like Google; can be
quickly and easily deployed, and are accessible anywhere, anytime.

It wasn't pretty (except for that first 8 minutes) but we have 3 points on the road for the first time since 2015(!) and start off the season with 2 wins for the first time since… USL? The downside is that Ridgewell is still out, Vytas is still questionable, and we may have lost Guzman for the next match. and meanwhile Ridgewell. Silver lining? Farfan seems up to the task, and the LA Galaxy social media team gave us a video that was supposed to be snarky, but has the unintended effect of making Timbers fans smile like Chara… MLS is not very happy about it, although you'd think they'd spend more time worrying about consistency of the refs. We're lucky we didn't get a man sent off ourself.
Month: March 2017
Let's do it again!
Some sights and sounds from the opener, including footage of the Minnesota away support group, whom I assumed were all members of the Dark Clouds, until I recognized the capo and learned they had another group called the True North Elite in this article.
Opening Day Tifo
I had chance to help pull up the tifo for the first time. Glorious! How, you ask? In the chaos before the opening day kickoff, I was walking back to my section and I overheard someone say they are short handed. What luck! This year I also got back in the swing of volunteering at the tifo painting sessions. Somehow I went the entire 2016 season without helping, and I missed it. If you've got an extra hour or two to help out, I highly recommend it.
It's time!
2016 hangover is officially over. What happened in the off season? Not so surprisingly, we learned that Nat Borchers and Lucas Melano would not be returning, while Rodney Wallace's return to MLS did not go as many hoped. We raided Saprissa for David Guzman and Roy Miller. An all too familiar preseason, season-ending injury to Gbenga Arokoyo sealed the fate of Jack McInerney. We managed to keep Darlington Nagbe off the Celtic roster, and saw him return to the USMNT after Klinsman got fired. We added a former teammate of Diego Valeri in Sebastián Blanco, a player who in preseason already looks like he's been with the team for a year. Meanwhile, completely unexpected Superdraft acquisition Jeremy Ebobisse has been quietly tearing it up in the CONCACAF U-20 Championships. Developing talent or developed talent? It's an odd numbered year, so we're already in a good spot, but things sure are looking rosy! Bring it on!

Defensive SEO & Reputation Defense— December 29, 2011
So I was reading a post on the Geeks On Steroids website.
This is run by a Webproworld.com user I used to interact with a lot. A smart lady with a great site and super strong branding skills. While I am a fan of their work, I am not affiliated otherwise.
She wrote a blog post about how she protects the top 50 spots in Google for her brands name. She uses the power of the anonymous internet to be many people. All the people she is, all love Geeksonsteroids of course.
This is very similar to the strategy we use when affiliate marketing products, building sites and earning affiliate commissions online.
This is also a key aspect of SEO we offer to Miami area slients who need to take charge of "who they are" in the eyes of the internet.
I had once heard a story about people getting paid to stand in bus terminals, subways and shopping malls and talk about how great a movie that just came out with. The concept is that people overhearing this will value what they heard even more because they don't suspect they are being sold to.
Every customer, in every market hears the pitch or commercial and their mind evaluates the product, salesperson and of course how reliable the information must be based on if it's a pitch or not.
Nobody trusts the slick car salesman, but if it's just two young hip girls or guys talking at the mall, well they can be trusted cause they aren't trying to sell me anything.
Or are they?
Janeth from Geeksonsteroids says:
I've already gone through the top 50 results and made a list of the number of sites I currently control that rank for Geeks on Steroids.
I will now start building back links to those sites using Geeks on Steroids as the anchor text for the back links. Of course I will mix in a variety of different anchor text like click here, Geeks On Steroids and so on and so on. At the same time this is happening I will start creating profiles on sites like Tumbler, WordPress, Squiddo, Blogger, YouTube, HubPages, LinkedIn, and Facebook. Each account will of course use the name Geeks on Steroids as its profile name and Geeks on Steroids logo as its profile photo.
The neat thing about people, is that we all have personas. I can even make personas of the person I wish I was, when I was around a particular person.
By doing this I can create 10 different blogs that are all run by me. I'll have total control of all the personas and blogs that those personas post on. We will create profile pages for each persona on Tumbler, WordPress, Squiddo, Blogger, YouTube, HubPages, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Facebook. All these will link back to one profile page for each website that says something about Geeks on Steroids and explains about the website and who it was designed for.
Just 50 strangers on the internet, interacting perhaps. How could 5 pages of Google results all with different people all with great things to say be wrong?
This type of reputation defense and defensive SEO is essential to any professional who lives off his or her reputation. You can do much more than protect yourself online like services such as "reputation defender" advertise. By purposely building pages, spaces and social accounts for your brand or personal name you are laying claim to the real estate online that will shape your reputation.
Spend 20- minutes every week to visit a social site and build your name and brand. Use outlets like article sites to write about your business. Get clients to provide testimonials to include on their online pages.
And use the casual word of mouth approach of building personas and 3rd party sounding references to your accomplishments to create a more convincing salesperson.

World Water Day 2015
by Big-Jump-Team EN
Raise your voice in solidarity for some of the last remaining wild rivers of Europe
Balkan rivers are some of the wildest rivers in Europe – like the Balkan music they are wild, lively and bring joy to people. And yet, they are currently under severe threat from hydropower projects. The three main areas of the Vjosa River, Mavrovo National Park and the Sava River are particularly vulnerable. We can ensure their continued existence as natural, free-flowing rivers through acting in solidarity with the local people of these Balkan regions by writing letters in support of their preservation (sample letter at the end of the article).Below, the Big Jump Challenge provides you with background information, introduces Save the Blue Heart of Europe - a coalition for the health of Balkan rivers - and above all invites you to commit to a small act of solidarity. To find out more, read on below…
What is "Save the Blue Heart of Europe"?
They are a coalition of NGOs - headed by an international team from EuroNatur (Founder for the European Nature Heritage) – and RiverWatch (Society for the Protection of Rivers) - who aim to raise awareness about dam projects and construction plans in the Balkan Peninsula, on some of the wildest, most biodiverse and most natural rivers of Europe. Local partner NGOs who are in league with this awareness-raising campaign to save these rivers from anthropogenic destruction come from Albania, Macedonia, Croatia, Slovenia, and more. According to new analysis, there are more than 630 medium-sized projects officially on the way. But including the smaller scale projects, there are about 2000 projects underway. This enormous amount of dam-building and hydropower activity will undoubtedly have dramatic and irreversible impacts on the health of freshwaters in the area.
Why are Balkan Rivers important for the ecological integrity of rivers in Europe?
At the moment, the danger facing rivers in the Balkan Peninsula from dam-building projects is high, and yet this fact is still relatively unknown in Europe and internationally. Not only that, the vast biodiversity and varied pristine riparian landscapes are unique in their wildness and excellent level of structural and biochemical integrity. In fact, although most of the Balkan Peninsula's freshwater bodies are not included within the protection of the Water Framework Directive (WFD), the structural intactness and biodiversity of rivers in the Balkan Peninsula is exactly what is being aimed for through the WFD this year, for all rivers and lakes in Europe. We can consider the freshwater here to be geographically and symbolically part of a "Europe of rivers".
For example, Save the Blue Heart of Europe studied the physical structure and biochemistry of rivers in this region and it turns out that 80% of the 35, 000 km of rivers, which were assessed are still in good or very good condition, as would be measured by the WFD. Nonetheless, dam building and hydropower projects are being considered even within national parks in the area, like the Mavrovo National Park in Macedonia. It goes without saying such activities would prove disastrous to the many indigenous species of molluscs, fish and other wildlife this peninsula is home to, and therefore its current status as a biodiversity hotspot would be severely compromised.
What are their main activities?
Of course, all hydroelectric projects in the area can't be banned, because energy needs must still be addressed and met. Save the Blue Heart of Europe's goal is to focus on saving the most unique, biodiverse, and ecologically important rivers in the Balkan Peninsula. They've identified three areas that are particularly worth saving to be part of Europe's natural heritage: the Vjosa River in Albania, the Mavrovo National Park in Macedonia, and the Sava River which flows through Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Serbia. Their stated goals for the next few years are the following:
- to raise public awareness about Balkan Rivers, their ecological values and vulnerability
- to stop dam projects in the 3 key areas
- to coordinate the development of a master plan with no-go areas for dam construction for all Balkan rivers
- to improve knowledge about the biodiversity of those rivers playing a crucial role in terms of biological connectivity and endemism in the region.
Local teams in these three main areas work to develop grassroots initiatives to address specific needs of the area. This includes not only blocking big dam projects which would destroy the ecological integrity of rivers in the Balkan Peninsula, but also developing alternative visions for sustainable development in the area.
What is so important about these three areas and what is being done there?
Let's get to know each of these areas in turn and find out why they're particularly worth saving:
The Vjosa River flows through Greece and Albania and is a not only an example of a wild, living, free-flowing river, but is also home to spawning fish and migratory birds as well as many other species. Due to its level of structural health and lack of obstructions, it's a meandering river with many features associated with wild rivers: braided river sections, islands, oxbow lakes, and the riverbed contributes to a wide watershed area. The Vjosa discharges 204 m³/s into the Adriatic Sea.
Although 37 big dam projects are being planned there (with four currently under construction), the current level of scientific knowledge of this river is quite limited aside from knowing that this is one of the biodiversity hotspots of Europe. Certain species close to threatened or endangered elsewhere in Europe are still thriving here, not to mention there is also a number of endemic species in this area, not found anywhere else. These include otters, the European eel, fish species such as the Ohrid loach and Pindus stone loach. In addition, endangered endemic plant species are still fruitful here.
People living on the banks of the Vjosa engage in crop production, livestock farming and fishing as livelihoods, due to the river supporting fertile land and an abundance of fish species. The area is increasingly becoming a magnet for tourism as well, since many activities such as rafting, canoeing, kayaking and swimming can be enjoyed there. Eco-tourism is certainly a viable economic activity that can be pursued here instead of hydropower. Save the Blue Heart of Europe demands that the projected dam projects in this area be banned and that the area be designated the first wild river national park in Europe.
Mavrovo National Park in Macedonia is already one of Europe's oldest national parks, and its landscape includes beech forests, alpine meadows and pristine rivers and streams. Aside from supporting a variety of rich wildlife such as wolves, bears, otters and rare species of trout, it is also the last remaining refuge for the Balkan lynx – a critically endangered subspecies of the Eurasian lynx. The park also supports more than 1000 species of flora.
Unfortunately the park already has two operating hydropower plants within it, an additional one under construction, and 20 more projected to be built in the coming years. Since many of the dams are considered "small" according to Macedonian law, no environmental impact assessments are needed. Needless to say, such projects not only threaten the riparian ecosystems of the park but also the status of the park itself.
According to Dr. Urs Breitenmoser of the IUCN's Cat Specialist Group, "Mavrovo hosts [...] the last source of population with reproduction of the Balkan lynx [...]. Putting any additional stress on this source population may lead to the extinction of one of the most threatened mammal populations in Europe." In the case of Mavrovo National Park, Save the Blue Heart of Europe demands that no new hydropower plants are built inside the park, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), World Bank, and other investors retract their funding for these projects, and that Macedonian government abandon any future projects in the park.
Finally, the Sava River is important like the others, not only for its pristine condition and biodiversity, but also for its flood protection capacity. Yearly flooding cycles in spring drain water into the ample floodplains of the Sava, which can store 2 billion m³ of water. These floodplains in turn provide a rich habitat for a variety of migratory and endemic bird species such as the Sand Martin, Common Tern, White Storks, several species of heron and rare European Spoonbills. These species, who are able to nest and feed in these productive floodplains, are often rarer or not even present in other parts of Southern Europe, and hence this area remains an important area biologically. Furthermore, the rare Danube Salmon, or Huchen, which is the largest salmonid species, can also be found here. Finally, alluvial forests found in this area support English oak and ash trees, increasingly becoming rarer in other parts of Europe, as well as breeding populations of Lesser-spotted Eagles, White-tailed Eagles and one population of the Black Stork. How much longer can these species safely thrive here if hydro projects inundate the area? The oxbow lakes, meander plains and floodplain forests are currently classified as Ramsar sites, but how much longer? Not to mention that the flood protection capabilities of the Sava affect settlements and cities further downstream – like Sisak, Slavonski Brod, and Belgrade.
Additionally, many traditional cottage industries still exist in the area around the Sava, and practices such as local honey production, cow cheese making, and pork products still abound here, as does local traditional agriculture and forestry as sources of income for the people populating these areas. Ecotourism has also been developing and could also turn into a main sector in the region if given time to do so.
The Sava is under threat from not only current and further hydropower developments, but also pending plans for this area to be used as a navigational route for shipping. The main demands that Save the Blue Heart of Europe has for this region are: no additional hydropower dam construction here, and in particular not in the Natura 2000 or lowland area sites, restoration of the Sava in Slovenia to bring back the Huchen, implementation of erosion mitigation measures in Slovenia, disallowing shipping traffic to navigate through the area, the EU must no longer finance projects here that violate EU directives, and restoration of the main river section flowing from Slovenia to Serbia.
What can I do?
If you come from this area, you could consider setting up a local Big Jump or joining an existing group (Link for adults: Big Jump, link for youth jumps: Big Jump Challenge).
If you are from another part of the Europe of rivers: why not make use of your voice? Let the authorities responsible know that people elsewhere also care about these precious rivers and ecosystems, and that they are willing to express their solidarity. To this end, Save the Blue Heart of Europe proposes the following addresses that all of us can send letters to. Below you will find a sample letter that you can use at your convenience, or even better adapt to your ideas and questions.

Dear Prime Minister,
We are writing to you to raise our voice in solidarity with the Balkan peoples and their precious rivers. The biodiversity and varied riparian landscapes are unique in excellent level of structural and biochemical integrity. In fact, although not all of the Balkan Peninsula's freshwater bodies are included within the protection of the Water Framework Directive, the structural intactness and biodiversity of rivers in the Balkan Peninsula is exactly what is being aimed for through the WFD this year 2015, for all rivers and lakes in Europe. In short, they are a paradigm for the preservation of water as our cultural heritage that is important for all of Europe and the world. We all can learn from and draw inspiration from these rivers and the preservation of them that had so far been achieved by the people of this region.
It is for this reason that we would like to express our concern with respect to the now booming hydropower development in this region. We urge you to explore ways for a clean and sustainable energy future that does not come at the cost of losing the biological-cultural heritage.
With respect to the Sava river, we ask you to consider:
- A stop of additional hydropower dam construction here, and in particular not in the Natura 2000 or lowland area sites,
- Disallowing shipping traffic in this area
- Promoting restoration of the Sava to bring back the Huchen,
- Promoting the main river section flowing from Slovenia to Serbia.
- Implementing of erosion mitigation measures.
With respect to those Sava areas that are part of the European Union, we would welcome information about the implementation of the Water Frame Directive (WFD), and whether the EU financial support of projects in the area correspond with the WFD.
These letters are part of European wide campaign for river preservation in the goal year of the WFD 2015. In particular, the Big Jump Challenge 2015 is the youth campaign for water conservation (http://en.bigjumpchallenge.net/home.html). Water conservation is a long-term issue that goes across the generations, and is done also for future generations. We therefore would very much appreciate to hear from you, and will also take your responses to a European Rivers Parliament of Youth from all over Europe in July 2015. Europe and the world are looking to your part of the world, and we hope that there will be joint ways to preserve the biological cultural heritage and find sustainable futures together.
Yours sincerely,

One of the reasons why my role as a health educator is so difficult is that I constantly spend time exposing bad information when I'd rather be sharing good information. This blog post is a prime example of that dilemma.
A member of the Natural Healthcare Center team forwarded me an article from an extremely popular media outlet that suggested a gluten-free diet could have "unintended consequences." The article was based on a study that found people who ate gluten-free had higher levels of toxic metals in their systems than people who ate gluten.
False. Or, at the very least, extremely misleading. Here's why.
Suppose you replace food that contains gluten with highly processed foods that are marketed as gluten-free replacements or substitutes, such as gluten-free breads, pastries and pastas. All you're doing is replacing something inflammatory with something that's slightly less inflammatory – but still inflammatory. Continue reading

PANAJI, India — A plan to open a Playboy club in Goa is facing stiff opposition by local lawmakers — one who is even threatening a hunger strike.
Michael Lobo, a state legislator in India's ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), is opposing the club proposed on Candolim beach, claiming it will foster prostitution.
Lobo called the Playboy club a "glorified dance bar" and worried that the establishment would promote sex tourism and vulgarity.
"I will resort to hunger strike until death if the Playboy club is allowed in Goa," Lobo said.
Although no nudity is planned and the hostess sari-inspired "Bunny Girl" costumes are tame by Western standards, Lobo said it was "obvious" nobody would pay for membership "just to sit and eat groundnuts." "They will try to get value for money. Government will not be able to control the happenings inside the club once it is granted permission," he said.
If the clubs open, "families won't come here," he added.
According to Goa's Tourism Minister Dilip Parulekar, the application for the first club, planned for Calangute — Lobo's constituency — is under consideration, but warned that "vulgarity" would not be tolerated.
A license for the club has already been delayed for several months by the tourism board.
"Anything which affects the morality and culture of Goa will be opposed by the party. If this Playboy is the same Playboy which is abroad, then we will definitely oppose it," Wilfred Mesquita, a BJP spokesman told the Wall Street Journal India.
The rival Congress party is reportedly also opposed to the clubs.
But Sanjay Gupta, chief executive officer of PB Lifestyle Ltd., the Mumbai-based company that has an exclusive license to market Playboy merchandise and run the clubs is confident the club will go forward.
"We filed an affidavit to the government categorically stating that as far as our club format goes, there is definitely no vulgarity," Gupta said.
Plans call for the opening of 120 clubs, hotels, fashion cafes and shops in India over the next 10 years.

Massive metropolises like San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego or Seattle are best experienced from vantage points that offer the best views in town. If you're searching for picturesque pockets that overlook a city skyline, local landmark or natural wonder, you've come to the right place. If you own a vacation rental property in one of these locations, share these tips in your guest guidebook.
Situated at the top of Hotel Erwin, a boutique hotel that overlooks the Pacific Ocean, High is Venice Beach's only rooftop lounge and bar, and it provides striking vistas of this Bohemia-by-the-beach. Come here at dusk for romantic views of the rocky coastline as the sun sets over the ocean. Comfortable sofas await you on High's sun terrace; grab a cocktail and take in the view. From here, observe the patchwork of towering palm trees and landscaped lawns that line the boardwalk.
This small, elevated park provides breathtaking views that encompass the Golden Gate City's soaring downtown skyscrapers and Lake Merced, located southwest of the city. Climb the twisting trail to the top of the enclosure for a stunning view of San Francisco. You can enter the park to the east side via the mosaic-covered steps at 16th Avenue and Moraga, which consist of thousands of handmade tiles, inspired by the Selaron Steps in Rio de Janeiro.
Head to Cabrillo National Monument, located at the southern end of Point Loma, for a pretty panorama of America's Finest City. In the winter, you can view the snow-capped mountains in the distance; in the summer, scores of ships land at nearby Coronado Island. Nicknamed the "Plymouth Rock of the West", the statue, which commemorates the arrival of explorer Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo at San Diego Bay in 1542, provides colossal views of the San Diego region and beyond.
With its Parisian decor and burlesque shows, The Pink Door is an independent restaurant that lures hungry diners who want affordable Italian-American grub in downtown Seattle. Come here for lunch and sit down at a table on the restaurant's outdoor deck, which will wow you with views of Puget Sound. Thirsty after a long day sightseeing? Sip a glass of wine and watch Seattle-Bremerton ferries travel across Elliot Bay.
Coit Tower's observation deck yields unparalleled scenic lookouts of San Francisco. The 210-foot Telegraph Hill tower, guarded by a statue of Christopher Columbus, faces the city's dense skyline and was inducted into the National Register of Historic Places in 2008. Comprising three concrete cylinders and encompassed by trees, the art deco monument offers perspectives of Bay Bridge, Russian Hill, the Golden Gate Bridge, and Alcatraz.
In a city full of superstar landmarks, Griffith Park is a must-see attraction. Nestled in the hills that overlook Los Angeles, Griffith Park provides 360-degree views of the City of Angels, taking in downtown skyscrapers, the Santa Monica Mountains, and the Griffith Observatory.
You don't always have to travel across town to find the best city vistas: Pillow properties come with pretty epic views, too. In fact, the living room in your short-term rental might offer a better view than a century-old skyscraper or national monument.

I heart baseball.
Ryan Franklin, one of our pitchers.
Ned and Mimi, Josh's cousins
"Which one of these is not like the other? Which one of these does not belong?" I always knew San Francisco was different.
The Stealth Bomber. This was seriously Josh's favorite part of the game. He was shaking for a couple innings afterward.
All Stars. If you look carefully on the top-to-mid right of the picture, you can see Stan Musial. He was bringing out the ball for the first pitch.
Mom jeans? You bet. Check those puppies out.
At least he's not a Cubs fan.
Josh's cousin Johnston caught the first ball of the game thrown into the crowd. Here it is on display.
Me and the hubby, shiny and happy.

Borrow Online Loans From Licensed Lenders In Singapore
An online loan is nothing but a loan that you apply for on a lender's website. The entire application process is carried out and completed online. The biggest advantage here is that you won't have to stand in long queues or endure the cumbersome process of filling out various forms. Another benefit of an online finance is that it doesn't have a complicated interview process. Your lender simply performs a credit check and you're good to go.
However, keep in mind that online loans are generally short-term and unsecured. This means that you won't be able to avail a very large amount. So how do you know if an online loan is what you need?
When planning to apply for an online loan, may it be a business loan, payday loan or foreigner loan, it's essential to choose only the licensed money lender in Singapore Credit Excel Capital Pte Ltd – Homepage. There are many online scammers who want to con you hence it's your obligation to differentiate between scammers and genuine lenders.
The lender you choose must have the necessary credentials and the license number should match that in Registry of Money lender's website. Other than License, the lender should have a good reputation. You should opt for the one with the lowest interest rates.
Every online loan differs on factors like the amount of money that you can borrow, and the repayment tenure. To find a loan that suits your requirements, you'll have to assess your finances and determine whether you can afford a loan.
Furthermore, you have to consider the occurrence of additional expenses that could crop up at any moment. For example, you may be charged an additional fee for making a late repayment.
You also have to keep an eye out for offers that could help lessen your financial burden. Are the repayment dates flexible? Are there any easy prepayment options that you can avail? Figure these things out so that you can get the best out of the loan that's been granted to you.
Another possible cost that you have to keep in mind is the prepayment penalty. You'll be charged this fee in case you decide to pay back the loan before the end your repayment tenure. That's why it's imperative that you read through the list of charges and penalties associated with the loan that you're taking. It'll help you stay on the safe side and you can save a whole lot of money.

How To Find The Best Full Body Shaper For You?
To be attractive it is always nice to have a perfect body shape. We all want to look good and we all want that feeling when we walk on the street and everyone's eyes are hooked on you. And although I am sure you are already very attractive, a full body shaper will help you enhance your looks to the next level.
What is a full body shaper?
You may have seen ads on television where a beautiful young woman would be telling you to buy this year (usually comes in black or skin colour) that can help you get the perfect shape and the desired figure like she did. Although I don't suggest buying from them, a full body shapewear for women is that product.
It is made of elastic materials that can make your body slimmer by pressing the unnecessary fat and give you the perfect shape. Body shapers are comfortable and not too expensive as well, provided that you know how to and where to purchase (No, not from TV commercials!)
How to find the best body shaper?
While purchasing a full body shaper, always try to find out if the product description matches the features below.
- Material
The material is a very important aspect of body shapers. Because it is directly in touch with your skin, you want it to be comfortable and not to make you feel exhausted. Therefore, check the material of body shapers before buying.
- Quality and comfort
You want to buy a full body shaper that provides a long-lasting quality and wearing comfort. Make sure that the body shaper is not very tight, always check the sizes and instructions for a comfortable body shaper.
- No-sweat shaper
Wearing a body shaper in the warm days is not an easy thing to do. Most of the body shapers increase the heat in your body and make you feel hot and sweaty. Hence a better body shaper is one that provides air to enter and doesn't make you feel unnecessarily warm.
Where to buy?
If you want to buy good quality full body shapers with affordable price and long lasting quality, Burvogue is the best online site to buy. However, there are many other online websites to purchase good quality body shaper, but as per customer reviews and recommendations, you should definitely visit Burvogue first to make sure you don't lose a great deal!
So what are you waiting for? Just order the perfect body shaper for you and call Pizza Hut for a home delivery. After all, body fat is never an issue from now on!

The third installment in the Power-Up Webinar Series features Dan Calvisi, Jen Grisanti, Lee Jessup, David Misch, and Jennifer Van Sijll. These industry-leading educators will provide instruction through 20-minute segments, live at the Relativity School Studio in LA.
Dan Calvisi - Write Great Description Paragraphs – Learn From The Masters!
A lot is written about the art of dialogue, but what about the equal challenge of writing great description/action? Citing examples from modern masters like Christopher Nolan, Vince Gilligan, Shonda Rhimes and Quentin Tarantino, Dan Calvisi will explore the mechanics, formatting and execution of this crucial element of the screenplay. Dan will also lead the class in writing the introduction of a famous movie character, to be compared to the actual text from the original screenplay.
Jen Grisanti - Writing A TV Pilot That Sells: Setting Up The Series And Season One Through The Arc Of The Wound
In this talk, Jen Grisanti will go over how to set up the series and season one arc by creating a strong arc of the wound for the central character. It is when the personal dilemma links to the professional pursuit and the pilot arc is one step toward healing the wound that we root for the outcome and emotionally connect to the story. Jen will discuss the season arcs for FLEABAG (Amazon), RIVER (Netflix) and HAPPY VALLEY (Netflix).
Lee Jessup - Representation Rundown
This will cover everything you ever wanted to know about agents and managers, including how to get the right representation, what to expect from your agent vs. what your can expect from your manager, how much you should pay them, what they will expect from you, and what you can do to motivate them.
David Misch - How "How Comedy Works" Works
My seminar "How Comedy Works" makes a unique guarantee in the world of screenwriting seminars: it gives you absolutely no help with screenwriting. HCW, as we in the office like to call it (Note: There is no office), is about comedy as an art form; what it is, what it means and how it works. Why take time with that instead of figuring out why your 2nd act sucks?, I hear no one asking. Because learning how comedy works will help you do it better. Anyway, that's my story and I'm sticking to it. This talk will show how looking at comedy not screenwriting can help your screenwriting; how contemporary comedy goes back to ancient Greece (and yes, I'm looking at you, fart and vomit jokes); and the precision, skill and ingenuity that comedy requires. Most of all, this talk explains why everyone who says examination kills comedy is not only wrong but should be killed, and shows how comedy principles translate into actual laughter. So, y'know, forget that stuff about no help.
Jennifer Van Sijll - Cinematic Storytelling
This webinar discusses the power of cinematic storytelling and how to move away from a talking heads script to create a truly cinematic screenplay.
