Open Today
The apartment guide it's a big help
I loved living here Manager Stephanie was great from my move in to my move out. Wish i was able to stay here but my job is relocating me :(. i highly recommend Imperial Palms Thanks for everything and maintenance guy is awesome.
Earlier this week I visited these apartments and the manager of the property, Stephenie Tirado, was very attentive to my questions and concerns while also making me feel very welcomed. Although there was nothing available immediately, I cannot wait to receive a call back and make this place my new home!
I like Apartment Guide. always I find everything I need !
Convenience to all shopping and freeways is a big plus. Downside- infested by roaches/water bugs. Manager seems to always do things that are not "allowed", ex. laundry is until 9pm, i saw her washing at midnight. She takes naps when she is supposed to be working (knocked on her door and the son answered and told me). She lets her family park in the staff parking lot, but God forbid someone parked in mine, she will have something to say.

AGASTACHE 'Black Adder' (Giant Hyssop, Bubble Mint)
North America
The blue-green foliage of this aromatic plant is aniseed-scented. From June to first frosts its BLUE-BLACK spires are covered with LAVENDER BLUE flowers. In well-drained soil the Giant Hyssop will grow to over a metre in sun or part shade.
Bees' favourite.
The small tubular flowers of Agastache 'Black Adder' are much visited by honeybees & bumblebees. This plant appears on the internet in its own youtube video, looking fabulous in an apparently shady location. Also recommended for growing in containers.
The City Planter, the magazine for urban gardeners, rated this one of summer's best bee plants:
'Agastache 'Black Adder' – a great all-rounder which attracts many insects'
…"the honeybee population in London has doubled in the last four years and we now have about 5000 colonies in the Greater London area – by contrast, New York has only 600 colonies. This is despite the fact that the vegetated areas of urban back gardens, which cover 24% of the City, have declined, with almost 70% of those garden spaces now made up of hard surfaces such as decking or pavement or short cut grass. Only 11% of private back gardens have flowering plants and shrubbery which may be useful to pollinators."
July 8 2013
The London Beekeepers Association (www.lbka.org.uk/) has their own list of recommended pollinator plants. Agastache 'Black Adder', they say, is especially good for honeybees:
"Giant Hyssop 'Black Adder': Recent research shows this plant is the favoured source of nectar for Honey Bees. The plant produces an abundance of sweet nectar which bees make a bee-line for once discovered by the hive."
This photo is one of a number taken by writer and blogger Elizabeth Hawksley on her August visit to Kew Gardens. The Kew gardeners have obviously given Aga 'Black Adder' a fine expanse to itself, & Elizabeth can attest that bees have found the spires.
"Broad Walk: the bees love this"
"I love the way that the planting has plainly been designed with bees in mind – there is a constant buzzing around the flowers – and butterflies dance around."
Elizabeth, a friend and gardener, has eclectic tastes which she likes to share. Her other recent blogs have included the Secondhand Bookshop Boat on the Regents Canal, The Importance of Left Handed Mugs, and a visit to the Kings Cross Development Site (which includes The Skip Garden & the restored gasometers.)
In 2015 we ordered two Giant Hyssop plants from the Specialperennials website (specialperennials.com). One we grew here in Highbury soil, while friend Mimi trialled the other in a container on her balcony in Shepherdess Walk. Our plant, on a south-facing slope, got full sun for six hours a day. Two flower spikes were broken by heavy rain; another stem broke lower down, victim of possible squirrel damage. A cage was built round the plant with sticks & string. Nipping off spent blooms made our Aga Blackadder bushier, with many flower stubs rather than spires.
Honeybees Discover Highbury's Agastache 'Black Adder'
In nearby Plimsoll Road, we have been told, there is a hive of honeybees. When our first Aga Black Adder stub came into bloom, a passing honeybee must have found it, buzzed back to the hive & waggled the news to the others. The photo (left) shows the early bees jostling for position on the stub.
Honeybees & bumblebees came to the Aga Black Adder for the rest of 2015. Small snails nibbled away at its lower leaves; any birds or frogs who ate them could surely taste the licorice. The flowers, untouched by pests, bloomed on till November in that mild London autumn.
Agastache 'Black Adder' Blooms on Shepherdess Walk
Mimi's balcony faces east, where it gets morning sun. Her Giant Hyssop had to contend with its new provider going away on holiday, & relying on a neighbour to water it. Even in these quite different conditions, it too was a success. 'It brought bees for the first time in years – which is terrific!' said Mimi. Her photos (below) are from mid-September, after the plant had had its best blooming moments.
We can both recommend the Aga Black Adder to you. We have each had success, with local bees buzzing to our blooming beauties. Seeds of our plants may be shared with friends, in a yet-to-be-formed club called the 'Fans of Agastache Black Adder' (FAB). If more of us could find a place for it in our lives and manage to grow it, we could help bring the buzz back to Britain.
Spring 2016: No sign of Aga Black Adder growth on Shepherdess Walk or here in Highbury, where wildlife will have eaten any seeds.
Autumn 2016: Neither of us replaced our plants this season, owing to circumstances… But there is no shortage; we see them on offer on the internet. Roll on 2017.
On this North American website, the Agastache Black Adder page has 34 positive reader reviews and 4 that are neutral (each referring to its prolific self-seeding). Readers say that their plants return in spring after winters of snow and ice. Our wet British winters are different, and the Giant Hyssop does not like to stand in waterlogged soil.
Dave recommends putting a paper bag over the spent spires, so the seeds when dry have a place to fall. Some of his readers have let their plants self-seed, leading to 'groves' of Agastache Black Adder.
Here is one review:
On Nov 29, 2006, Rotegard from Minneapolis, MN wrote:
"Our anise hyssop patch is 2 years + in the Minneapolis LaSalle Community garden and very hardy here in zone 4. The flowers and leaves have a black licorice odor that is unrivaled for bees and butterflies. In 2005 we harvested much of the foliage for a fine melissa/agastache tea served at the Barebones Halloween festival. Mixed with chocolate mint it is the basis for a pungent licorice cordial."

This Agastache Black Adder was ordered from Coblands and delivered to the front door by courier. It spent a successful year in the garden and brought in many pollinators:

Disney's Animal KingdomA theme park, zoo and safari park, with a strong emphasis on animal care and conservation.
Discovery Island
Discovery Island is the hub of the park – you'll end up here several times during the day, unless you're very disciplined in your park touring. The main feature of this the Tree of Life – also the symbol of the park, and a truly impressive sight. It is 145 foot tall, 50 foot wide and the trunk has 325 animals carved into it. You can't help but be awed at the amount of care and attention that must have gone into creating it. The main attractions in this area are:
It's Tough to be a Bug – located beneath the Tree of Life, this is one of Walt Disney World's best 3D movie attraction. Join Flik from 'It's a bug's life' to learn about different bugs in a really fun way. Keep a look out for various animals on the way down to the theatre and get a closer view of the Tree of Life. Make sure you have a read of the film posters in the waiting area too – they're fun.
Discovery trails – these are walkways that walk you round the base of the Tree of Life. Usually fairly quiet, they are generally overlooked, but these are a great way of getting a closer look and some great photos of the tree.
Africa features animals form this continent and African themed merchandise. It has two major attractions:
Kilimanjaro Safaris – this is one fo the key attractions of the park – climb aboard a safari vehicle to be driven around the savanna at the back of the park where you can see numerous animals roaming freely. These include hippos, giraffes, elephants, lions, zebras and white rhinos among many others. It is probably the closest that you'll get to going on a real safari without actually visiting Africa. They don't guarantee that you'll see specific animals, as the animals are free roaming, but they obviously position food to attract them and the ride is such a way that you will almost always see everything. Go early in the morning, or just before the park closes – the animals are more active than in the warmer parts of the day.
Pangani Forest Exploration Trail. This is a walking tour through the 'forest' where you can see birds, gorillas and hippos. The gorillas are particularly impressive.
Festival of the Lion King is a live show, telling the story of the Lion King and featuring all of the best songs from the movie. It features acrobatic monkeys, aerial acrobatics, a fire eater, stilt walkers and some fantastic singers.
Rafiki's Planet Watch
Asia is accessed from either Discovery Island, Africa or DinoLand USA. The major attractions are:
Expedition Everest – The Legend of the Forbidden Mountain is one of the other big players in Animal Kingdom's attractions. Try to avoid the yeti as you explore the Himalayas on this rollercoaster. It's a really fun ride, with a few twists and turns, and very popular.
Kali River Rapids – a traditional rapids ride. This can definitely help you cool off in the hot Orlando weather, but be aware you're very likely to get wet and if you're unlucky, this can be head to toe soaked!
Maharajah Jungle Trek is another walking style tour that lets you see more animals, including tigers.
Flights of Wonder – a bird show featuring a number of species, focussing on their behabiour in the wild – not trained tricks.
DinoLand U.S.A
DinoLand focuses on prehistoric animals – although really just dinosaurs. You can get to it via Discovery Island or from Asia. Here's what it offers:
Finding Nemo – the Musical. Having said that this is DinoLand, this is the one attraction that has nothing to do with dinosaurs. Located at the entrance to the land, as you enter from Asia this is a stage show that uses puppets, the dark and reflective clothing to tell the story of Nemo. It features some really lovely music, that isn't in the film and is a popular, fun show.
DINOSAUR is a dark ride that takes you back in time to save a dinosaur. A little bit 'Jurassic Park', it would probably be too scary for little ones, but its a great ride and quite popular.
Primeval whirl – this is a small coaster, but the seats spin you round as well as move forward – a bit like the tea cups but on a coaster. Its made to look old and a bit rickety, which just adds to the fear factor.
Triceratop Spin – ride in a flying dinosaur, 'Dumbo' ride style
The Boneyard – a kiddies adventure playground
Pandora – The World of Avatar
Pandora is Animal Kingdom's newest land, which opened in 2017. It is said to be Disney's most compelling and immersive development so far, with every detail thougt through so you feel like you've stepped into the world of Pandora, from the Avatar films, including waterfaks and the famous floating mountain.
The biggest attraction here is Avatar Flight of Passage, a flight simulator that sees you flying on a Pandoran banshee. The technical and visual effects that accompany this attraction are state of the art and get you as close to feeling as if you are actually flying, without actually doing so, as is currently possible. Absolutely not to be missed, but as with any new attraction, queues are expected to be heavy, so FastPass it if you can.
Na'vi River Journey is a boat ride through night-time Pandora, viewing its wildlife in plant and animal form, with stunning visual effects.

Resort Vacation SavingsInsider Tips for Visiting Keystone, Breckenridge, Copper Mountain & Summit County on the Cheap
There's No Rule That "Resort Vacation" = "EXPENSIVE"
…or if there is a rule, we all know rules are made to be broken!
True, there are certain unavoidable expenses for your visit to Summit County resorts like Breckenridge and Keystone – like airfare, lodging and lift tickets – but start by checking out the hottest deals from Priceline for all your reservations.
For everything else, from activities, to shopping, to entertainment expenses, some budget-saving strategy will take your dollar a lot farther!
Your best bet for saving money on your vacation in the Colorado Rocky Mountains is to plan ahead!
Don't wait until the kids are starving to decide where to eat. (You'll end up buying a $20 hamburger just to avoid a meltdown.) And just wandering into the closest bar for your Apres-Ski might not land you the best Happy Hour Specials. Why pay full price for expensive activities like snowmobiling or horseback riding when many tour guides are offering discounted rates? A little advance preparation (or on-the-spot decision-making with your Smartphone) using WhatToDo's incredible vacation planning resources will go a long way!
Become a "Coupon Clipper"!
WhatToDo has the largest selection of coupons for Summit County resorts around. Save money on horseback rides, rafting trips or marijuana shops. From our website, you can print, email and share coupons – and find significant savings on some often-pricey vacation expenses! Just a few examples…
Ski Rental Discounts? No problem check out the great coupons to help you save money this winter vacations! If you're looking for ski & snowboard tunes or repairs or gear to buy, check out the complete listings of local service and retail shops!
Eating out is a big expense – and nightlife costs can be even worse…. But how does 10% off your meal at Michael's Italian Restaurant sound? Or FREE Twisted Sticks at Extreme Pizza? Or a FREE BEER from Boatyard Grill? Or save $3 on dinner and family entertainment with a chuckwagon dinner and wild west show!
Is a massage or spa treatment "too expensive" to justify? Pamper your wallet and your nerves with $10 off a 90-minute massage, or a 60-minute massage for $65 or a Thai Facial for $50!
Happy Hour Specials and Daily Deals Calendar
Yes, one of the best things about being on vacation is forgetting what day it is…but – when each day is packed with the different restaurant deals and happy hour specials – it pays off to keep to a schedule. At least a little bit 🙂
All-You-Can Eat Crab? Champagne Sunday specials? All-You-Can-Eat Ribs (& Football Bingo)? And while you're kicking back and enjoying yourself, get your skis tuned with Alpine Sports' special OVERNIGHT Service Discounts! There's probably a special on our Specials calendar for every day you're here, so why not plan your trip around the discounts?

Family Trusts with Corporate Trustees face huge WorkCover accounts in relation to Deemed Premiums.
Recently a client was audited by CGU Insurance and they have received an account on the basis that they had a Corporate Trustee and the family members involved in the business were deemed to be employees. The account was for:
i. Additional premiums resulting from wage audit $19,835.04
ii. Auditor's fee 1,252.85
iii. Penalties $13,752.47
iv. Total $34,850.36
WorkCover has advised Kim Cull, President of The Law Society of NSW, as follows:
"Where the trustees are individuals, the trustees themselves would, generally, not be entitled to workers' compensation coverage. If the trustee is a proprietary limited company, workers' compensation insurance would be necessary to cover any working directors. (This situation is no different to the position of working directors of other proprietary limited companies where the directors are considered to be employees of the corporation.)
All workers employed by the trustees must be insured for workers compensation. This includes any beneficiaries of the trust who are not trustees, but who are employed by the trustees.
Family members working for the trustee, who receive trust distributions but no other form of reasonable remuneration, would be likely to be considered workers. Where employed beneficiaries are not paid a reasonable wage for the work performed but are instead paid through trust distributions, these distributions may be considered wages. The wages component assessed for premium calculation purposes is based on the hours and type of work performed."
If desired, you can contact me for copies of the following correspondence:
1. Letter from The Law Society to WorkCover of 20 March 2002.
2. Letter to The Law Society.
Bill Thompson of Commins Hendriks recommends that if you are involved in a Family Trust with a Corporate Trustee it is crucial that you review the following:
i. Whether you replace the Corporate Trustee with individual Trustees. You must carefully examine the advantages and disadvantages including the Stamp Duty consequences, Capital Gains consequences, tax consequences and the limited liability issue.
ii. Whether you retain the Corporate Trustee and arrange for the family members who are directly involved in the business to be paid a salary upon which Workers' Compensation is paid at the rate of approximately 11-12 cents per dollar. A question that you need to clarify is whether the salary actually has to be paid which would give rise to Pay As You Earn Tax and Superannuation or is it sufficient for WorkCover purposes that a premium is paid on the basis of a deemed salary without the salary being paid?
iii. Whether you should retain the Trust with Corporate Trustee but have a Partnership Agreement between the Trust and individual family members working in the business. This would mean that the individuals as partners would be employing themselves and therefore not be entitled to Workers' Compensation coverage. (Please refer to paragraph one of the quote from the WorkCover letter.)
iv. Arrange to see your Accountant and have your Accountant liaise with your Solicitor to review the above.
Accountants throughout the Riverina are concerned that in some areas where farming trusts have distributed profits of hundreds of thousands in the last few years, families could face huge WorkCover bills if they are audited.
Our firm is attempting to coordinate a test case in conjunction with the NSW Farmers Association, The Law Society of NSW, The Institute of Chartered Accountants and the CPA's. We are working in conjunction with Rodney Parsons who is a representative of The Institute of Chartered Accountants Rural Issues Committee.

Question about Computers & Internet
Posted by machecafamil on
How about trying this software:File undelete.?
It might help you..
Posted on Apr 02, 2009
To avoid losing the file forever, do NOT save any more files on your computer until you can get software from Norton (or another company that makes Undelete software. This software finds and restores files that have been deleted. (Have you checked your Recycle bin to see if your computer just happened to put the deleted file there? If so, you're home free--the file can be easily restored.)
On the other hand, if it's been truly deleted. you have a chance of restoring it with Undelete software. Here's what happens: When a file is deleted, it doesn't really go away. Files are put in boxes called "clusters" and when the file is deleted, the computer puts a mark (such as a "$" sign telling the computer that that cluster or group of clusters can be used for future use. That's why it's so important that you don't ask your computer to file a new file so you avoid the computer possibly overwriting the new file over your old one. If the new file is short and there are several "open" clusters before your photo file, the new file will likely go into one of the sorter, earlier clusters first.
Best luck!

Let's say right up front that these studies are currently only applicable to the Dutch and the Swiss. Those are some decent human beings that manage to keep their shit together. Good for them. Regardless, a study by the Swiss government found that piracy did NOT affect the budget people spent on entertainment.
Piracy was EVEN found in some cases to lead people to spend MORE money on entertainment stuff. Downloading more music led to buying more music, downloading games actually meant spending the most money on games.
Crazy I know, but maybe all those organizations with an army of lawyers could learn something from a similar study in America.

Our Forté
We have always been a midwife-owned company, so we know maternity care. We recognize the complex billing scenarios surrounding midwifery and maternity billing. Whether a patient receives straightforward care or transfers care after a long labor, you can rest assured that we will bill accurately and for greatest reimbursement.
In-depth Benefits Verification
All maternity clients are provided with an in-depth review of their benefits. Verification of benefits, authorizations, and exceptions are completed by our experienced staff. Assisting patients partially or wholly in this process often reduces their out-of-pocket expense, allowing them greater access to midwifery care.
Estimated Out-of-pocket Expense
You may also choose to have our benefits verification staff complete an estimated out-of-pocket expenses letter for each patient, which can be used to collect the patient's expected portion up-front. Maternity care presents a unique billing situation in that there is a predictable prolonged period of care, and collecting the anticipated patient contribution during the prenatal period is a huge step toward improving reimbursement—after all, it's much harder to remember to pay the bill for your medical care when you're busy taking care of a new baby!
Facility Billing
The average medical biller is trained to use procedure codes and diagnosis codes—the information needed to complete a CMS-1500 form—but that training and those processes only suffice for billing professional services. What happens when you want to bill for the use of your facility and supplies? That's UB-04 territory: a different form that uses special code sets and requires special setup in many medical billing systems.
We have a lot of experience billing facility fees. We know about the special code sets needed to complete a UB-04, and our billing system is setup to accommodate them. This experience and preparedness is key to proper reimbursement for facilities like birth centers and ambulatory surgical centers.

DUETTE -- For more than 25 minutes, the next-door neighbors of a Duette couple whose mobile home was picked up by a tornado early Sunday detailed the terrifying scene in a 911 call, made just moments after the home was dropped about 100 yards away.
Stephen Wilson, 58, and Kelli "Kade" Wilson, 51, their son Stephen Wilson, 38, and four grandchildren were all inside the mobile home when the tornado hit early Sunday morning. The elder Wilson, who had just celebrated his birthday Thursday, died instantly when the mobile home was dropped, while his wife managed to get out from under the debris. She later died of a heart attack at Blake Medical Center.
The younger Wilson, his two sons, daughter and niece were all hospitalized for their non-life threatening injuries.
At 3:58 a.m. Sunday, a 911 call came into the Manatee County Emergency Communications Center from a man who identified himself as the Wilsons' next door neighbor.
"We just had a tornado out here in Duette. We have a mobile home knocked off its blocks and one woman that is injured," the man states. "The neighbor's son just came walking down here with his head all bloody."
The 911 call dispatcher asks exactly what had happened. The caller says a tornado had hit, hurting the family and knocking down all the power lines in the area.
"These people have a double-wide and it's decimated," the man says. "We are pulling up now and there is nothing there. It's leveled...
"We have the man's son in the car with us. He can't find his dad."
The younger Stephen Wilson then briefly gets on the phone. The dispatcher asks him about his mother.
"She can't breathe," Wilson says. "A tornado blew the house over."
He confirms that she is awake but then hesitates. The dispatcher lets him know help is on the way.
"I'm bleeding all over the place," Wilson says. "I'm trying to find my dad right now."
As she cautions him not to put himself in danger, the neighbor gets back on the phone.
"Kade don't move. The lady said don't move. Don't move," the man urges.
The plea is immediately followed by distant groaning or shouting. The neighbor continues to plead with her not to move.
"I think he just found his father," the man says to the dispatcher. "No, it doesn't look good. Just tell the cops and the ambulance to hurry please."
The dispatcher assures him help is on the way.
"He ain't awake or breathing," he says. "Oh, no! Poor Steve."
He shouts over to his wife and passes the phone to her.
"The house is in the road," she says. "No, we aren't in the house, we're in the ditch, that's where the house is now. The whole house is gone."
She also pleads, asking where help is and tells the dispatcher that Kade Wilson keeps trying to get up.
"Her husband is laying next her. He's dead," she says. "There's kids screaming at the barn and I don't know."
The dispatcher questions her about who else might have been in the home. She tells the dispatcher that she hadn't known the son had been there, but that often the couple's children and grandchildren spent weekends with them.
"My husband is walking across to the kids now. They're screaming," she says. "This is just, horrible."
The woman continues to describe the scene of terror as the rain and strong winds are intermittently starting up and stopping. She tells the dispatcher that the entire area has lost power so she can't see any other damage. The couple's son had managed to get the children to the barn.
"I can get back to my house, but I just don't desire to go back to a mobile home after this," the woman says. "This is scary, their whole house is gone. There is nothing left.
"He's buried and she's on the ground."
The dispatcher tries to reassure the woman, keeping her on the line in case anything changes.
"I just don't know what's taking them so long, we have the Duette fire department," the woman says.
Duette Fire Rescue, the Manatee County Sheriff's Office and paramedics are on their way, the dispatcher tells her, adding that they are likely encountering lots of debris trying to get there.
The dispatcher whispers to someone else that the caller is in a vehicle with its flashing hazard lights on, next to the patient.
"I don't see her but I see him. He's holding a blanket over her, with a flashlight. They're sitting up," the neighbor says, her voice becoming more noticeably fearful. "Now this is just unbelievable, now the winds are picking up again. This is scaring me to death."
As the dispatcher continues to try to comfort her, the woman spots headlights, and then the flashing emergency lights. After the 25:30-minute call, help is in sight, but she says they are slowly coming down the road.
"Winds are picking up again. Surely a second one is going to hit? Now the kids are running out with my husband. Something is going on here, my truck is rocking," the woman says. "They are running to the fire truck."
The woman tells the dispatcher her husband is coming back to their truck, but then he returns to the ditch where Kade Wilson is, because the responders have not gotten to her yet.
"I'm going to let you go so you can talk to -- " the dispatcher starts to say as the line is abruptly disconnected.

Eggs are something we take for granted.
But did you know that most eggs come from chickens that are kept in terrible conditions?
One way we can all protest against these conditions is to only buy free range eggs.
As someone who cares about animal rights, when Valley Park Farm approached me about writing their website copy, I jumped at the chance.
Valley Park Farm is Australia's largest producer of free range eggs. If you shop at Woolworths, you've probably seen their packaging in the free range egg section of the supermarket. The great part is that the people at Valley Park feel so strongly about free range, that that's all they do. No cage hens at all. Most egg producers are mostly cage, with a little free range on the side. Not these guys though…
The website was a lot of fun to write because we got to play around with all sorts of chicken jokes…
My sacred vow: To leave no chicken or egg pun unused!
When writing this website, we did a lot of research around the benefits of free range vs cage eggs. The results are really interesting.
One cool thing about the Valley Park website is their "hen cam". This is a section on the website where you can see video of the chickens out and about exploring, in real time.
To see the Valley Park Farm website for yourself, click here. And remember to support better conditions for chooks – buy free range!

Grant Gustin Wants Joss Whedon To Direct "The Flash"
"The Flash" will race back onto TV sets on Tuesday, October 4, and the season premiere of the CW superhero series will see the debut of a new timeline. But as the series progresses, there's one specific event "Flash" lead Grant Gustin would like to see occur offscreen; he wants to see Joss Whedon direct an episode.
While speaking with the press at Comic-Con International in San Diego, Gustin fielded a question about other directors he'd like to see direct an episode of "The Flash." After all, season two saw fan favorite director Kevin Smith take over for an episode. "Yeah actually," said Gustin, with a director already on his mind. "I met Joss Whedon last night. Yeah, that'd be really cool. He was a really nice guy and he loves the show. He's seen every episode of the show."
SDCC: "Flash" Cast Reveals Spoiler-Filled Secrets Of Flashpoint Timeline
Whedon most recently directed the two Avengers films, 2012's "Marvel's the Avengers" and 2015's "Avengers: Age of Ultron." And he's definitely no stranger to directing television shows; he directed dozens of episodes of his series "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," "Angel," "Firefly" and "Dollhouse." He's also directed episodes of "The Office," "Glee" and "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D."
And Kevin Smith, whose involvement behind the camera in season two of "The Flash" inspired the question, will also return to direct an episode in the third season. Smith is slated to helm episode seven of season three.
"The Flash" returns to the CW on Tuesday, October 4.

An unusual bug
Some of our QA people recently came across some unexpected behavior that took them a while to explain. They were testing format-preserving encryption with an Oracle database. They encryped a date, stored it in Oracle, read the encrypted value back out and then decrypted it. When this failed, they started trying to figure out what was going wrong, which took a while.
It seems that the ANSI date is only defined for dates from January 1, 1601 forward. Something like February 12, 1523 isn't a valid ANSI date, for example. But if you use FPE to encrypt a date and you don't define how the format is being preserved carefully enough, it's possible to get a valid date mapped to an invalid date.
It seems that if it's configured a particular way, Oracle doesn't like ANSI dates that are before 1/1/1601 and will automatically change them to 1/1/1601 if they appear. In most cases this works just fine because the vast majority of business data is from the past several decades. But when you FPE-encrypt a date and get an older date, this can actually cause trouble.
Yet another example of why IT is almost always harder than you first think it's going to be.

Northern herds
The results of satellite tracking and genetic studies done between 1996 and 2003 showed three distinct herds using different seasonal ranges (calving and, especially, rutting) in an area once thought of as one "Bluenose" caribou herd.
These genetically distinct herds are the Cape Bathurst, Bluenose-West and Bluenose-East herds. Since 2000, these animals have been surveyed and managed as distinct herds.
Barren-ground caribou herds in Alaska and Nunavut are also declining. The declining trend in Bathurst and Bluenose-East caribou herds is consistent with generally declining trends in migratory tundra caribou herds in North America including the George River and Leaf River herds in Quebec/Labrador; Qaminirjuaq herd in Nunavut; and Teshekpuk herds in Alaska. The Porcupine herd is one of the few exceptions with an increasing trend.
Cape Bathurst herd
The Cape Bathurst herd was estimated at about 19,300 animals in the early 1990s. Recent estimates for the herd were:
2005 2,400 animals
2006 2,600 animals
2009 1,900 animals
2012 2,400 animals
2015 approximately 2,260 animals
All harvest of the Cape Bathurst herd has been suspended since 2007. The herd's calving grounds on the Cape Bathurst Peninsula are protected through the Community Conservation Plans and provisions in the Inuvialuit Final Agreement. The area is also recognized as a Critical Wildlife Area between May 15 and June 15.
Bluenose-West herd
The Bluenose-West herd was estimated at about 112,000 animals in 1992. Following a decline since then the most recent population estimate in 2012 indicates the herd in stable at minimum. Recent estimates of the herd are:
2005 20,800 animals
2006 18,000 animals
2009 18,000 animals
2012 20,000 animals
2015 approximately 15,000 animals
Resident, outfitted and commercial harvest of the Bluenose-West herd has been suspended since 2006. Aboriginal harvest of the herd is limited with a current quota of 345 animals for the Inuvialuit, 345 animals for General Hunting Licence holders in the Sahtu Region and 22 animals for the Gwich'in. An 80 percent bull harvest is recommended.
Bluenose-East herd
The Bluenose-East herd was estimated at 104,000 animals in 2000. The herd has declined except for a brief increase between 2006 and 2010 followed by another decline. Population data indicates the number of breeding cows in the herd has dropped by 50 percent from 34,000 in 2013 to 17,000 in 2015.
Recent estimates of the Bluenose-East herd are:
2005 66,600 animals
2006 66,200 animals
2010 between 103,000 and 122,000 animals
2013 68,000
2015 estimated between 35,000 and 40,000 animals
Resident, outfitted and commercial harvest of the herd has been suspended since 2006.
There are no restrictions on Aboriginal harvest but a voluntary restriction of four percent of the estimated 2006 herd size was recommended by both the Sahtu Renewable Resources and Wek'eezhi Renewable Resources Boards.
A Management Plan for the Cape Bathurst, Bluenose-West and Bluenose-East herds has been finalized by the Advisory Committee for the Cooperation on Wildlife Management.
The Management Plan addresses the need to: develop a cooperative approach to managing for the herds; protect the habitat in the herds' range; and, make decisions on the shared harvests in an open and fair manner. It was developed in consultation with most of the communities that harvest from the three herds.
The Bluenose Caribou Management Plan Community Report is a companion document to the Management Plan. It provides further community knowledge. A Technical Report provides recent scientific knowledge and status of these herds as well as gaps in knowledge and research suggestions are presented for consideration by the co-management boards responsible for managing for these herds.
Dolphin and Union caribou
The Dolphin and Union caribou look similar to Peary caribou but are larger and slightly darker with grey velvet covering their antlers. The population was considered as Peary caribou in the past but recent genetic studies indicate the animals are distinct from both barren-ground and Peary caribou.
Dolphin and Union caribou are restricted to Victoria Island and the nearby mainland coasts of Nunavut and the NWT. They cross the frozen sea ice between Victoria Island and the mainland twice a year.
Population estimates from 1997, 2007 and 2015 show the population was above 30,000 in 1997, but has declined to about half that size as of 2015. Mortality of Dolphin and Union Caribou due to drowning (breaking through sea ice), as well as predation and hunting, is relatively high.
Dolphin and Union caribou are listed as a species of 'Special Concern' under both the federal Species at Risk Act and the territorial Species at Risk (NWT) Act. In 2017, COSEWIC re-assessed the status of Dolphin and Union caribou as Endangered in Canada.
A management plan for Dolphin and Union caribou in the NWT and Nunavut has been completed.

Timothy Taylor's is an independent, family owned brewery based on the Knowle Spring in Keighley. We have over 150 years of brewing experience and are renowned for the quality of our award-winning beer. Our cask conditioned beers consist of Landlord, Boltmaker, Golden Best, Dark Mild, Ram Tam and we have recently launched Knowle Spring Blonde .
We can't put the unique taste of Timothy Taylor's beer down to any single thing. It's the result of years of hard work, skill and doing things the hard way because we think it makes the difference.
Taking extra time, care and pride in traditional, hands-on brewing, and making no compromises when it comes to ingredients. Our 5 highly trained brewers still brew all our beer by hand and taste test every batch at least three times. Our Knowle Spring brewery sits on a natural artesian well, which provides a constant water, unique to Taylor's, that has been filtered through layers of limestone and black rock. Knowle Spring water is naturally soft and very pure.
Its consistency is one of the reasons we are able to produce beers of such reliable quality and flavour. We only use Golden Promise barley. It's the highest-grade barley you can use for brewing beer.
We're one of the last brewers in Britain to still use whole leaf hops. They cost more and take more looking after but we think they're vital to the flavour of our beer. Our unique strain of yeast is over 1800 generations old and combines perfectly with our water and barley. It's appropriately called Taylor's Taste.
It's quite rare these days, but we still use a hop-back stage. This allows us to extract the most subtle flavours and aromas from the oils of the hops.
All for that taste of Taylor's.

Ivanka Trump announced today in a Facebook post that she would be stepping down from the Trump Organization and from her own brand in order to "take time to settle our three young children into their new home and schools" in Washington D.C. We assume that means she has to buy a lot more artwork to decorate her new house with.
Ironically, Ivanka noted in her Facebook message that one of the issues she was "deeply passionate about" was "unleashing the potential of women in the workplace," which sounds rather different than her plan to hang around the house all day while her husband, Jared Kushner, performs his new job of Senior Advisor to the President.
Don't worry, though, because Ivanka isn't finished working forever; she also promises in her message that she will "determine the most impactful and appropriate ways for me to serve our country."
We can't wait to find out what that means…

Last Sunday was a nice warm summer day, Clapham Common was packed with picnickers, families and people playing football. What better to do than head eleven stories underground for a tour of Clapham South deep-level shelter??
The excellent London Transport Museum operate several tours as Hidden London: 55 Broadway (London's first skyscraper) and Euston station's lost tunnels are now sold out for the foreseeable future but there are still tickets for Down Street (Churchill's secret station) and for Clapham South.
It was in 1940 as the German bombing campaign intensified that the British government made the decision to look into building the deep-level shelters. The public had taken to using tube stations as substitute shelters of their own volition, and it wasn't really safe to have so many people sleeping on platforms etc. As well as Clapham South there were another nine shelters planned, though a couple were shelved due to flooding. The other shelters were built at Belsize Park, Camden Town, Goodge Street, Stockwell, Clapham North and Clapham Common. Basically, all along the Northern Line as the original plan was to use them after the war as part of a Crossrail type project of high-speed rail (the post-war depression put paid to this). Each was designed to hold 12,000 people, though this was decreased to 8,000 per shelter before they opened, and in reality they never housed anywhere near this number.
Although the shelters were ready by the end of 1942 they did not see real use until the summer of 1944 when the V1 and V2 flying bombs were unleashed on the city. The Clapham South shelter opened that July, yes with the aim of saving lives, but this was also propaganda. The London public was terrified and the government had to be seen to be acting in the best interests of the population. There are cheery photos that went into papers: happy mothers and children setting up their bunks; volunteers serving in the canteen; even people dancing underground!
Our group was assembled outside the tube station(group size is max 22) before walking from the main entrance to a nondescript door two minutes walk along Balham Hill. It may look a lot different these days but this is one of the original entrances, now redeveloped so it looks just like a normal part of the street. From here it is 180 steps down a spiral staircase into the shelter. Back in 1944 if you needed to shelter from the air raids you would make your way to one of the two concrete 'pillbox' entrances, one of which we used. We also saw an exit leading up to the station which wasn't in official use but there is anecodotal evidence that mentions parents using it to leave the shelter for work.
Once in the shelter the scale of the project is striking. There are two levels with connecting stairs at either end. On arrival each temporary guest would have been allocated a bunk in a particular section – these sections were named after naval officers at Clapham South. Our first stop was at the medical post. The tiles from the sink splash-back are still visible which help indicate the room's use. People with medical conditions had priority and there was no charge for treatment which, in this pre-NHS era, was a big draws. We then moved into one of the tunnel sections, the lights turned off until we were all gathered at one end. When the lights were turned on we saw the view below (more impressive when you're suddenly confronted with it from darkness).
The bunks were pretty crammed in and bedding was not provided. People had to carry everything they needed overnight down into the shelter and then be back up 180 steps by 7am the next morning, most of them with kids in tow as families were given priority.
So people had beds and medical supplies but what about food and drink? What about the basic necessity of a toilet? Well, there were canteens set up, mainly by volunteers. The canteens were outside of rationing so you could buy as many sandwiches or cakes as you wanted as long as you had the money to pay for them. Generally prices were around twice those of above ground but once in the shelter people had little choice if they had not brought their own supplies. For the loos the situation was considerably sophisticated. We went into one of the gents' and could see where the urinals were by marks left on the walls. Behind those would have been stalls. Human waste was emptied into a hopper at the end of the room and then hydraulically pumped up to a sewer near the surface.
The shelter was only open for a brief period during the war but that was not the end of its use. After the war when Jamaicans came over on the Windrush, enticed by the promise of guaranteed jobs, many had nowhere to stay when they first arrived. A labour exchange was set up at on Coldharbour Lane in Brixton and so it was fairly convenient for men to stay in the deep-level shelter for a few days until they found proper lodging. Conditions were not ideal and jobs were plentiful so the longest tenant was a week, most only staying a night or two.
The Festival of Britain in 1951 marks the last occasion that people stayed overnight in the shelter. On the centenary of the hugely successful Great Exhibition of 1851, a moral boost to a country that had survived years of war and depression, the Festival was a huge event with millions of visitors arriving from all over. There weren't enough hotel beds in London, and with austerity still in full force many people couldn't afford such luxuries. At Clapham South one could stay underground for a low price.
There was a fire in the Goodge Street deep-level shelter in the 1950s and it was decided then that the tunnels were not safe enough to house people overnight. For a long time Clapham South was used as an archive, but after the contract ran out a few years ago it has been possible for the public to go down and explore. This is a fascinating tour and there are still available dates for this summer.
Check out the London Transport Museum website for more details.
Clapham South tours operate five days a week until 21 August, then 2-26 March 2017 and cost £35 per person (ticket also gives you half price admission to the museum if presented within one month of taking the tour).

A licensed medical marijuana grower who had his mortgage pulled by Scotiabank is a good lesson for clients who do unauthorized renovations, say brokers.
Rate sites may be inevitable, but if third-party sites are left unchecked there is a real danger that they will one day gain irreversible pricing power over brokers, cautions one broker.
Brokers may not like it, but this is the reality of the industry today.
The opening keynote message for brokers at today's Mortgage Summit was the need to balance creativity, technology and profit to define success.
One broker remembers the expensive lesson learned by brokers a few years ago in opening storefront locations in high traffic retail centres, and sees the BMO micro-branch model succeeding if costs can be controlled.
CREA membership recently rejected a Rate Your Realtor proposal – a concept that would be unworkable and unfeasible if applied to the broker channel argue some brokers while others are ready to embrace it.
Sure, brokers may have lots of dark feelings about these comparison sites, writes industry vet Ron Butler, but here is exactly how they can turn that foe into friend
Thursday's federal budget could have been a lot worse, say some brokers while others are anxious about any potential fallout for BFS clients and monolines.
The battle for renewals is a fight that brokers are gonna lose, says a leading mortgage broker.
In the fall, lenders came bearing the gift of advertisements promoting mortgage brokers to consumers. Verico broker Ron Butler reads between the lines of those ads.

120 g Boiling water (Coffee works great too)
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp salt
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Grease and flour 2 cake pans of 12 cm or 5 inches diameter.
3. Whisk buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, egg yolk and vanilla until smooth. Set aside.
4. Sift dry ingredients (flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder and baking soda). Stir in salt.
5. Pour buttermilk-eggs mixture over dry ingredients using a hand mixer or blender, starting from low speed and increasing slowly. Add hot boiling water and beat 1 or 2 minutes maximum or until you see no lumps. You can do this manually too using a whisk.
6. Pour mix evenly among two cake pans and take them to the oven for about 25-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
7. Cool the cakes in their pans on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Place a wire rack on top of the cake pan and invert, lifting off the pan. Let cool and freeze 30 minutes at least.
Chocolate Ganache
400 g Dark or Bittersweet Chocolate Best Quality coarsely chopped
350 g Cream / 35% minimum fat
20 g Unsalted Butter
1 tp Vanilla
1. In a small saucepan mix Cream and butter. Bring pan over medium heat stirring ingredients to dissolve completely and until almost boil.
2. Pour hot mixture over over crushed chocolate. Let rest about 1 minute moving the bowl with your hands.

'Everything good is coming my way': Rafferty
The day Tori Stafford disappeared, Michael Rafferty changed his Facebook page to read, "Everything good is coming my way."
On April 6, 2009, just hours before the eight-year-old disappeared, he posted the status message on his Facebook page.
OPP Det.-Const. Leslie Waldron, a specialist in social media investigations, testified police were able to access Rafferty's activities through Internet service providers and Facebook even though his Facebook account was deactivated shortly after his arrest May 19.
Rafferty has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder, kidnapping and sexual assault causing bodily harm in the Stafford case.
In the Facebook profile, Rafferty spells his first name "Mychol" and professed his love of life, family and friends.
Rafferty claimed he was from Toronto and graduated from culinary arts at George Brown College.
Rafferty wrote that he liked camping and dancing, and a wide variety of music.
In a long, rambling self-description, he talks about "slowly becoming somebody" and having "many layers." He also writes about the value of friends, but also about pain and sadness in his life.
"Life has given me some short straws and I have let down people I have cared for," he wrote in the profile.
Waldron said Rafferty was on Facebook for 22 minutes at 10 a.m. on April 8, 2009, the day Tori disappeared on her way home from school in Woodstock, Ont. He spent most of that time looking at the profile of Alexis Lane, a childhood friend he told others he wanted to marry.
Earlier Wednesday, court heard Rafferty seemed fine after being questioned by police about the disappearance of Tori.
Jessica Meloche was one of a number of women Rafferty dated in 2009.
She told the court she met Rafferty on April 12, 2009, on Plenty of Fish, an adult dating website, and they quickly became am "exclusive" couple.
Meloche said Rafferty spoke of helping a troubled teen named Terri-Lynne who was being targeted in Tori's investigation, a reference to Terri-Lynne McClintic, who has already pleaded guilty and was sentenced for murder.
Meloche said Rafferty was texting on his BlackBerry constantly and suspiciously vague about his past.
She said Rafferty's car was a mess and there were was no back seat.
They cleaned out the car in late April and there were empty pill bottles with no labels. Meloche said Rafferty took pills for "anxiety."
Meloche said Raffery often stayed over at her house in the days before May 19, 2009, when he was arrested.
Rafferty had called her on the prior weekend, saying he had been questioned by police about Tori's disappearance but he seemed "fine — not stressed out," she testified.
Meloche couldn't reach Rafferty on May 19 and found out later he'd been arrested.

Siemens Large Drives motor factory in Norwood, Ohio recently made an investment to upgrade their manufacturing capabilities at the 117-year old facility. A new and highly advanced machine from WFL has aided in the manufacturing of steel rotor shafts. In turn, Siemens Norwood has been able to provide a new product to fill a major gap in the market.
The key advantage of the Norwood factory's new WFL 5-Axis CNC machine is its ability to save time and utilize less manpower.
So what does this new CNC machine actually do? Bores, taps, turns, mills and drills. All are performed on 5 axes!
When shafts arrive in the facility as raw material, several modifications including full-penetration welding must be made before they can withstand the extreme torques inside a motor. The welding procedure for full-penetration welds requires three or four weeks of time-intensive, internal and external labor and quality checking.
Almost all shafts require turning, milling, drilling and tapping procedures which were historically performed on separate machines. The transitioning between those multiple machines immediately adds setup time, creates transportation waste and increases risk of scheduling conflicts.
In addition to those concerns, many of Norwood's existing machines are over 30 years old which typically leads to increased maintenance over the lifetime.
The WFL M80 mill turn is 52 feet long, weighs 58 tons and contains a 72 tool magazine that automatically connects and calibrates to the turning, boring and milling (TBM) unit.
With the new CNC machine, all of those procedures can be performed sequentially in a faster time and with less supervision, also eliminating former waste and potential risks. The new process coined as "fluting" is subtractive manufacturing that mills out material from a larger starting radius versus the previous additive manufacturing that welds more material from a smaller radius. This process takes less than one day versus several weeks in the previous process.
Meeting Customers' Needs
The need for this new CNC machine follows the recent market change that has required larger frame sizes, higher speeds and, thus, larger and stiffer rotor shafts.
Traditionally, the volume for larger rotor shafts -- the size which is best suited to run on this new machine -- has been low, but increased customer use of variable frequency drives has shifted industrial motor business to invest in new manufacturing technology.
A capital investment team at Norwood discovered a profitable estimation to acquire this new mill turn and the team launched its research on three different mill turn machines in Winter 2013. WFL's M80 mill turn was selected as the best investment in Spring 2014 using a complex decision matrix of both core needs and auxiliary functions. The transportation of the mill turn, the installation into the factory and training by the designers occurred over months, finishing in Fall 2015.
The WFL mill turn is controlled by Siemens Sinumerik 840D controller and HMI, located directly in front of the machine doors.
Impressive Size and Capabilities
The sheer size of the WFL M80 is impressive, not to mention its vast capability, 20 different machining operations and precise, high-speed tooling. The WFL M80 mill turn is 16 feet wide, 13 feet tall and 52 feet long, weighing in at 58 tons! In fact, the machine is so large that it could not fit through the existing door to the facility, so part of the garage frame had to be removed and then replaced once the machine was inside.
The new CNC machine utilizes 72 unique tool heads, each of which is automatically selected and calibrated by the internal tool measuring system and software. The CNC controller on the machine is a Siemens Sinumerik 840D.
The mill turn does more in less time; it removes 60 percent more material with each pass, than the previous machine. In addition, the length of the capable shafts for CNC milling has increased to 220 inches, over the previous machine's 117 inch maximum limit. All of these aspects make the new mill turn a highly valued asset to Norwood's rotor manufacturing process.
The turning, boring and milling (TBM) unit arm can perform 20 distinct CNC operations across 5 axes. (in the right: one of the two programmable steady rests)
Improving Lead Time and Reducing Costs
With great technologies also comes great challenges. The Norwood team was faced with learning a WFL proprietary coding language to operate the new machine, requiring intensive training to overcome a steep learning curve.
Not only is the programming new to Norwood, but the logistics of installation and the release to production demanded constant cross-functional teamwork. There were several weeks of preparation and manual labor to finish the installation, followed by machine calibration and training that had to take place before the first production part was created and released.

WildStorm Productions, or simply WildStorm, (often rendered Wildstorm) published American comic books. Originally an independent company created by Jim Lee and further expanded upon in subsequent years by other creators, WildStorm became a publishing imprint of DC Comics in 1999. The WildStorm imprint is editorially separate from its DC parent, with its main studio located on the West Coast. The imprint takes its name from the combining the titles of the Jim Lee comic series WildC.A.T.S. and Stormwatch.
WildStorm publishes common American comics as well as independently created content and licensed properties from other companies, covering in total a wide variety of genres. Its main fictional universe, the Wildstorm Universe, features typical costumed heroes in various scenarios — though this direction has changed somewhat in recent years to a darker treatment of the superhero genre.
The publishing activities of WildStorm have varied, with changes in ownership affecting the ongoing publication of some of its titles. Peaking during the 1990s, WildStorm maintained a number of its core titles from its early period (such as WildC.A.T.S. and Stormwatch) and has since continued to publish material expanding its core universe. Essentially WildStorm's main titles include WILDC.A.T.S, Stormwatch, Gen¹³, Wetworks and The Authority, though it also produces single-character-orientated series like Deathblow or The Midnighter, and secondary titles like Tranquillity published at times.
