The Council of Commanders, 1990-92
In 1990 the political disarray at Peshawar spawned an attempt by commandersinside Afghanistan to develop a coordinated command structure among themselves.Led by Abdul Haq, an outspoken commander affiliated with Yunis Khalis, a seriesof increasingly larger meetings was held, climaxing with one in Massoud'sPanjshir valley in September. It was widely representative of the majorcommanders and drew up a set of understandings on mutual support andcooperation. But it was not able to create a comprehensive command structurethat could solve logistical difficulties or coordinate a nationwide strategy.The commanders did not build a workable political system.
Dependence on the parties and Pakistan for supplies was too pervasive. Theirjealousy regarding their own hard-won autonomy was also a factor. They sharedthe same territorial mentality that had kept the party leaders from uniting.

charlie hebdo and the hivemindRemember a little more than a week ago, when we were all cheering on the looming new year, happy to put a stake through the heart of 2014? Well hello, 2015.
No need to link anything concerning the murders in the offices of "Charlie Hebdo" as if you've not heard of them then you are deliberately avoiding the news. Just horrible horrible news to wake up to, first for the meaninglessness of the loss, and second for the implications.
And then we had a day of social media, and it was bewildering, even as it settled into camps. There were those that took the murders to be yet another incidence of some world conflict between faiths, and there were those who, out of excusable outrage, took to mocking of the faith of the murderers, and then there those who made self-serving stands for alternately freedom of speech and the freedom of the press. I have differing levels of problems with all of those, but, as they say, who cares? The most poignant, perhaps, were the scores who posted simply, "Je suis Charlie", which is about as simple a declaration of support and sympathy as you can imagine, and used in the public vigils in cities across the globe. Of course the cynic in you can argue that, actually, no, you are decidedly not Charlie, but nice job making it all about you, but intentions being what they are, etc.
And I'm not even talking about the trolls, who have settled into the discourse like shabby furniture, predictably lumpy and smelling of cat piss. I mean, technically, Chuck Johnson actually is Charlie, and yes, France has a troubling history/present concerning the freedom of religion (i.e., anti-semitism is banned, but so is wearing a burqa), but maybe the time to bring that up is not while families are still IDing the corpses. But even everyone else, the saddened, the earnestly upset, and ultimately, the vocal, are hobbled by the constraints of their own personal hiveminds. It's a tapestry of confusion and self-righteousness, with small chairfights breaking out in the interstices. You want desperately to gaze upon this and be filled with a swelling love of humanity and its resilience and compassion and that's all kind of in there somewhere. You keep telling yourself. As you stare down a road paved with best intentions.
And it's not just intentions just contribute to this, but rather the tenor of our age. Let's accept that the world we live in now requires us to first have an opinion, and then immediately find the affinity group to join in solidarity over this opinion, and then fav each other to death. It's almost as if no tragic event with enough resonance to circle the planet can be said to have happened unless enough people feel the need to take to the streets over it.
But ultimately, it was a terrible day to be on the Internet, as the majority of users inspired to comment on the tragedy were hammers mistaking a variety of things as nails. Personally I think that terrorists have exactly as much power as you give them, which is why I choose to call them murderers, because they ain't nothing but.
It was a day of bringing out the worst in the best of us. And ultimately, the murderers got what what they wanted: to catch the attention of the world, and to be thought of as something bigger, something greater, than murderers.

post-internet art is dumbThis entire piece is worth a read (if a bit stingy with the details) about this modern-day disruptor of the art world. It is morbidly fascinating to see members of my generation take the Move Fast and Break Shit credo to its logical and vulgar conclusion. In this case, one idiosyncratic and voluble person is trying to upend the fine art market by cornering the market in young talent. How so? Well, identify hot, social media friendly Millennial artist, buy their entire inventory, and then snag them in a 21st Century version of patronage — dude pays for materials, overhead, living expenses, etc., and dude owns future output.
(This is where the story gets a bit hazy. There is much winking and nodding to this patronage relationship, but there is not much in the way of reported facts. We are left to surmise, which may be a mistake.)
But mostly I'm sharing this because, in it, I learned of what is being called "post-Internet art," which I'll just let the speculator/patron in question, Stefan Simchowitz, explain himself:
Simchowitz uses the term as a generational marker to describe how art history has been "flattened" for artists of a certain age. "When they typed in 'tree' " in a search engine, Simchowitz explained, "they got a thousand pictures of a tree: a picture of a tree made in the 18th century, a tree made last year, a cartoon of a tree. You have this flattening of time." To the extent that "post-Internet" sometimes defines a sensibility, you could say that it's characterized by positivity, the melding of satire and admiration, an emphasis on popularity over exclusivity and an uncomplicated reverence for fame and success.
Now I know that this sounds silly to you and me — describing an artistic movement on the terms of the availability of reference — but then again we all remember post-Encyclopedia-Britannica art, in which all the art was of things from foreign countries, and in alphabetical order.
Plus also this concept of post-Internet art is as lazy and muddle-headed as every single other little dingleberry of jargon that has found shelter in the mouth of someone disrupting something or otherwise begging a bro-VC for some seed capital that I thought I'd dump it out on the carpet here so we call all stare at it in awe.
I mean, it's not even a mild misuse of an existing word or phrase, like innovation or inflection point. It's like they're not even trying.

What if you could dream while you were awake? That's the question that inspired our new collection, which features fashion basics made of the softest sustainable fabrics.
Your clothes and your (home) accessories define your style, they express the way you feel and what you stand for. This power is the mean reason we only work with materials such as organic cotton, modal, tencel, linen, wool, silk and organic leather.
Triple Pink is a high-end womenswear brand founded in Haarlem, the Netherlands. The first collection we launched was AW14/15 and during our second collection (SS15) we added some clothes made of cotton and tencel. This season (AW17/18) we will take Triple Pink to the next level by adding fashion basics and home accessories.
Soon we present a beautiful collection tops, shirts, blouses, sweaters and sweatpants, made of the finest fabrics.
We already have a beautiful collection leather bags, belts, wallets and fine jewelry, but we will add more fashion accessories.
Soon we present a beautiful collection pillows, plaids, hockers and more, made of organic leather, linen and silk.

Hi all,
You may have noticed the lack of activity over the last 6 months. I have no excuse for that, we just didn't have any time. Life gets busy sometimes, suck it up.
But we are hard at work preparing to get this place rolling again. We have been busy thinking of new way to promote, and find new people to help us write. So there should be some fresh content very soon and coming at you regularly for the rest of the year.
Personally, I am having some financial questions in my own mind that I am trying to answer. It is very easy to tell someone else what to do, but much harder to make the decision for yourself and stick to it.
You see, my girlfriend is done school and is now working. Our household income has increased quite significantly. I am also working hard on my own career track and expect a larger income this year as well.
Our problem is that I am not sure what to do with this money. I keep flip-flopping on what I want to do, sometimes daily. Here is my shortlist of what I want to do with our new income.
- Throw it at our mortgage. These dream interest rates are not going to last forever and I want to get it as low as possible before they go back up.
- Throw it at my car loan. It is higher interest and a much smaller amount than the mortgage.
- Buy new insulation for my attic. The stuff up there is very old and there it not much. I know we are losing a ton of heat in the winter and it is not doing a good job of keeping it out in the summer. I think this would be a good investment in the house. We are not planning on staying here much longer than 3 years (what to do with the house then is another disscussion/post for later).
- Buy a water softener. The water in my town is hard and I want one of there. I think this will also add value to the house.
- Finish the basement. My basement was finished, but it was old fake paneling and no insulation and crappy lighting. I ripped it all out, and framed a room down there for my oldest son. I now need to frame the rest of the basement living area, insulate and drywall. Plus floor and carpet. Again, should add value to the house.
- Shed and deck in the backyard
- New windows on the main floor. They are the original windows and are in bad shape. Value to house and save on energy costs.
- Dishwasher. It washes dishes for me. Awesome. Need water softener first.
- New TV. My personal favorite. New big tv for living room.
- Invest more in RRSP's. Smart, yet boring.
- Invest more in RESP's. Make the kids smart so I don't have to support them later on.
As you can see, the list is big and I want to do them all, but our income does not yet allow for that. I need to prioritize but that is very hard some days. Any thoughts? I am really leaning towards insulating the attic first, but that tv would look very nice.

Crook County fails to win at Capital City Classic
The Crook County Cowboys dropped their final two games in the Capital City Classic basketball tournament, to finish 0-4 in the two-day event.
After being blown out by Woodcreek, California, and Clackamas in the first two days of the tournament, which was held at Willamette University, the Cowboys continued to struggle offensively on the final two days of the event.
Thursday, the Cowboys fell to Stayton 61-41, before being defeated by North Salem 62-43 Friday morning.
The Cowboys fell behind early in Thursday's game against the Stayton Eagles and could never recover as Stayton steadily increased their lead.
"Stayton was really big," Crook County head coach Darin Kessi said. "They had three kids that were big. When we watched them against Corvallis they weren't that effective, but when they played us they came out with really good energy and they jumped on us early. Their bigs were pretty impressive against us."
Kaleb Anundi, a 6-8 junior post, was unstoppable against the Cowboysn scoring 26 points. Many of those points came on offensive rebounds as Anundi and the rest of the Eagles pounded the glass.
No other information about the Stayton game was available at press time.
The North Salem game was a totally different story. The Cowboys hung close for much of the game.
The Cowboys were in Friday's game until midway through the third quarter. Crook County fell behind 13-6 after one period, and still trailed 24-17 at the half.
However, the team rallied early in the third quarter to close to within three points at 28-31.
That was as close as they would get. Foul problems ultimately proved disastrous. Guard Chase Bales fouled out and Devin Bishop sat on the bench for much of the second half with four fouls.
North Salem took advantage of the Crook County foul trouble and pulled away, finishing the third period with a 9-0 run to pull away to a 40-28 lead.
North Salem kept pushing the advantage, outscoring Crook County 22-15 in the fourth quarter.
The Vikings shot 23 free throws in the game, converting just 12 of them.
However, the Cowboys were able to get to the free-throw line just eight times in the contest, making just three of their attempts.
Thaiden Mullan kept Crook County in the game early on, hitting three 3-point shots en route to a team high 13 points.
Bishop also finished in double figures with 10, while Will Combee added six and Bales five.
North Salem's Jayden Meade led all scorers, putting up 19 points, while Braden Vasquez added 13 for the Vikings.
"We were just off defensively all day today," Kessi said. "Missing assignments — missing rotations. We just we weren't good enough defensively. We have to be a team that brings our best effort for 32 minutes. Right now we're not that team."
With the loss, the Cowboys have now dropped six consecutive games. After starting the season 2-2, the team is now 2-8.
"I honestly thought that we would respond better from a competitive standpoint" Kessi said of the four-day tournament. "I thought that we would rise up to that level of competition and just go out and really compete with them and say 'Heh, we are here and even though we may not be as good as you, we are still going to come at you.' We really didn't see that develop, but we did expose some things that showed that we need to get better."
The win was the first win of the year for North Salem, which improved to 1-9 on the season.
"We have to come out of this," Kessi said of the four losses in the tournament. "We have to work harder in practice and bring better intensity. We have to work on our weaknesses and have a better sense of urgency and I feel like there was some good processing of that."
The Cowboys do not play again until Friday, Jan. 5, when they host the Sweet Home Huskies (5-4) in a 7:15 p.m. matchup. Then, Wednesday, Jan. 10 the Cowboys host The Dalles in a 7 p.m. contest.
"We are a team that has pretty good team chemistry and I think they are going to build off of that," Kessi said. "We have some practice time before the Sweet Home game and I think that they are going to figure it out and they are going to keep getting better. Sweet Home and The Dalles will reveal a lot about how we responded."

Home Windows of All Shapes and Sizes for Your Home in Arlington, TX
Home windows come in a vast array of shapes and sizes. In Arlington, Texas, where popular housing styles range from the sleekly modern to the quaintly historic, window selection is usually dictated by architectural traditions. Craftsman-style houses with their low-pitched gable roofs and decorative beams tend to favor double-hung and casement home windows, while ranch-style houses are often fitted with bay and sliding windows.
Whatever their style, size, or placement, the vinyl home windows Woodbridge Home Exteriors can install will perfectly complement the existing décor of your Arlington, TX, residence. Every one of the windows in our exclusive Woodbridge Classic line are custom made to ensure a precisely tailored fit. Expertly assembled by local Texas craftsmen, these windows are durable, impact resistant, easy to clean, and guaranteed to never crack, fade, warp, or rot for as long as you own your home.
Some of the many types of windows we offer include:
- Picture windows – As the name suggests, these large windows are designed to frame expansive views and provide a showcase for the beauty outside your home.
- Bow windows – The graceful sweep of these gently curving windows lend a touch of elegance to dens, kitchens, bedrooms, or studies.
- Specialty windows – Custom shapes and accessories such as transoms and awnings can help accentuate the unique spaces in any house.
In addition to great looks and exceptional durability, all of our Woodbridge Classic home windows use triple-paned glass, which improves a home's insulation and helps reduce heat transfer, making them some of the most energy-efficient products in the industry.

• Cllr Hough reported that the County council were looking to consult with the public on the proposal to decriminalise car parking offences. Cllr Hough suggested that this would be a good opportunity for local residents to request designated resident parking spaces on Little Lane and Mount Pleasant if this was thought to be desirable.
• There being no other business the meeting closed at 8.45pm.

Supporting business-unusual and
So your business strategy is defined and now you need to translate that into a strategy for Marketing to deliver against. The marketing strategy directly supports the business strategy (business-unusual) and must also support business-as-usual. Both are essential for a complete marketing strategy that drives your business towards its vision and maintains (and strengthens) your market position by addressing all elements of the marketing mix (including brand) and thereby empowering a reinforcing effect between these elements. For example, if you have a strong brand that would likely not be a business-unusual strategic focus for your business. However, at a marketing strategy level brand strength is strategic; the business-as-usual activities, such as advertising, reputation management and PR, which generate that brand strength must be included (and updated and even improved) in the marketing strategy.
What is involved in having your marketing strategy facilitated…???
The process below describes the steps that are involved in formulating a marketing strategy. To some extent they are modular; certain steps can be expanded or contracted and they can be done at agreed dates/ periods and with varying degrees of involvement.
1. Briefing to understand the business strategy, current stakeholders and current service providers.
2. Review of the current marketing strategy if that is in place, marketing activities and rationale.
3. Interviews with key participants (existing team members and applicable service providers) to glean insights and inform the structure of the strategy session.
4. Preparation for the strategy workshop, according to needs identified.
5. Strategy workshop.
6. Post workshop summary of outcomes.
7. Presentation for approval according to the applicable governance structure of the business.
8. Translation of the strategy to an annual plan for implementation.
Implementation requires change and programme management competence
Implementing a marketing strategy is fairly similar in process to any other functional strategy, involving communication, co-ordination, operation planning, resourcing, monitoring and improvement. This can become highly complex due to the number of activities, timing thereof and often the number of stakeholders and service providers involved in executing a marketing strategy. Strong change management and programme management skills are required.
What is involved in having your marketing strategy implementation facilitated…???
To facilitate the implementation of your marketing strategy we work closely with your applicable marketing related management (brand, product, comms, PR, marketing) to craft the implementation plan and set it up in an activity table that can be monitored and tracked.
Often there is a hand-holding phase to get momentum on the implementation and ensure that all stakeholders and service providers are aligned. During this time, implementation skills and techniques are shared with applicable marketing related management team members.
We are also often required to fulfil a continuous guiding oversight role to compensate for particular inadequate implementation skills, insufficient time or people.
I'd really like to chat to you about how you could get the most out of your marketing strategy and implementation thereof.

So you're finally seriously considering understanding how to play a guitar! Congratulations! Maybe you have a classic piano you want to start playing otherwise you such as the sound of the guitar. In order to play and share music is a beautiful thing to be capable of do plus it is simply fun! Listed here are 5 tips to placed you on your journey to learning to play a guitar. Well, technically it is just 5 tips, but you'll find tips within tips!
1. Have a great time!
Learning how to play an instrument is a good experience in addition to, often, an issue. Do not be scared! It's fun! It is cool if you study a song or you discover how to play something yourself. Don't fret about nowadays instrument the very first time! Have patience - learning how to play a guitar or sing needs time. And, just think, you've (mostly likely) been playing at least hearing music all your life. You will want to give it a try? You don't need to have perfect pitch (that's when a person might hear a pitch and will tell you the name of the pitch) as a way to pick a device or sing (I certainly lack it, however i know people that do - it seems like to make it have their own pros and cons; relative pitch is obviously valuable though). And do not be worried about finding out how to read music. I've a degree in music and possess taught piano and bass and I think that finding out how to read music is extremely valuable and not necessarily for everyone. Do what works for you! Don't allow unsure how you can read music prevent you from giving music a shot!
2. How to Choose a Musical Instrument
There's a chance you've considered playing music, along with determine what instrument to learn. Instrument choice will surely have some factors that you may want to consider however, you should, naturally, pick something you like or see as relevant. Maybe we have an instrument that you have always wanted to learn how to play. Perhaps you just want something to look at along on camping trips. Or, on top of that is actually there exists a sort of music that you dig some much that you want to join! No matter the reason, here a couple of thoughts to consider prior to you making ignore the: Although we're on what's comfortable in your case, the size of the instrument, one's body size, the weight from the instrument etc are facts to consider.
Some instruments could possibly be bigger, heavier, smaller or higher fragile than you may think. Again a vacation in any local music store to get a closer look is going to do you good. - Would you like a moveable instrument which can be easily transported? Does one mind when it requires electricity and/or batteries? What's any room like? Can it accommodate the instrument of your choosing - for example, it likely wouldn't review well if you reside in a condominium and decide that you want to play drums.
Of course I'd rather not leave out my technology friends! I realize a great deal of you need to learn to make a music track and record your beats. Others of you may want to acquire more into the sound design aspect. I propose doing all your research. My affordability is usually pretty tight so, many of the time, I start with less costly software and work my far. I've found it helps my focus and learning curve to master basic principles first before diving into all of the features greater sophisticated software has.
Hardware. When the time comes to get hardware, I spend the amount of money if needed. I like well make instruments that feel safe inside my hands.
3. How much cash when you devote to a whole new instrument?
Check at instrument retailers online to acquire a sense of the cost of the instrument you want. If this describes the initial time playing an instrument, you may not want to invest big inside your first instrument for several reasons - you will probably find another that you like better, you can choose that you never prefer that instrument - you get the idea. However, you most likely wouldn't like to go that's so cheap and poorly crafted who's falls apart. In any case, you don't need to invest big money in your first instrument. Do not do a genuine investment unless you know you're going to be playing the instrument. When you have any friends who are musicians, allow them to have a shout and get what their brain is on price. Check out several of the local independent instrument stores and strike up a discussion with many one there. While you're at the shop, hold or play a number of the instruments, if you can.
This might help to provide you with a sense of what's comfortable for you personally. For those who have any friends who will be musicians, attempt to acquire one of them to tag along (you usually won't have to twist any arms to get a musician to attend a music store!). If you live instrument is just not their instrument, they will often consider things to ask that you may not consider or attractive various ways. It isn't an awful to obtain a report picking folks on the local music shop if you really get into playing. It is possible to find some great stuff on Craigslist . org if you decide to obtain a used instrument route. If you possibly could, please take a friend along so you have another set of eyes to think about the instrument that you can buy.
4. Get yourself a teacher
Even if you just plan on noodling around, it can't hurt to adopt a least a few lessons - you can likely find the crooks to be worthwhile. Again, places like Craigslist have all forms of postings of music instructors. In the event you ask, you might probably get a break on lessons if you spend on several beforehand. You can even commence with software that coach you on to understand to sing or play piano/keyboards, bass, drums and guitar normally, nevertheless, you may also find this sort of software for violin, cello, sax, etc. you'll simply have to dig a little deeper to get it. These generally is a good summary of the instrument possibly at roughly $20 - $60 per course it isn't really so bad (based on the instrument and the instructor, lessons vary from $30 - $125 per lesson, give or take) plus there is an reference material. In spite of this, nothing ever replaces a real live teacher.
5. Lastly, there is one device that you will need to acquire whatever the instrument you choose: a metronome. It'll be annoying and drive you crazy in the beginning, but it is a must-have. Maybe you have seen or heard one - commonly a little box which makes a clicking or beeping sound. A metronome will assist you to develop got time - keeping.

The Gujarat government had established the Ahmedabad Urban Development Authority (AUDA) in February 1, 1978, with the prime objective to carry out sustained planned development of those areas, which do not fall under the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation. AUDA aims at developing the infrastructure at the outskirts of Ahmedabad in a planned manner. It provides the residents of those areas the access to basic infrastructure facilities and services such as roads, water supply and sewerage systems, among others.
To achieve this successfully, the authority carries out several functions. The two major functions of AUDA are as follows:
The officeof AUDA is situated at Usmanpura in Ahmedabad. The authority has a well-defined constitution and is led by the chairman, Gauri Kumar. However, at present, the scope of AUDA has become constricted due to the merger of the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation with the 18 gram panchayats of the Ahmedabad district.

Recently an article was published in the Health Journal section of The Wall Street Journal regarding new ways of helping those with colorblindness see color differently, and new thoughts on gene therapy. Could it be that there are phone apps and videogames that will help people with colorblindness? Is there a cure available through gene therapy? This article addresses these new aids and gene therapy, and how they could possibly help those with colorblindness have a new lease on life.
The Facts on Colorblindness
According to this article published by The Wall Street Journal, 1 in 12 men suffer from some degree of colorblindness, while only in 1 in 7 women carry the gene that is linked to colorblindness. While many researchers agree on these statistics, there is still some mystery about what testing methods helps identify the degree of colorblindness and therapies that can be used to aid in improving one's ability to see color.
The reason it's a hot topic? Simply put, colorblindness can interfere with one's ability to accept certain jobs including:
- Airline pilot
- Police officer
- Air traffic controllers
- TSA officer
- Railroad engineers and more
Imagine for a moment, if you had a lifelong dream of becoming an airline pilot and you couldn't because you were colorblind. It's hard to imagine if you are not, but there is plenty of new research that has come to the forefront that gives hope to those with colorblindness, according to Melinda Beck from the Wall Street Journal and Dr. Jay Neitz.
Melinda Beck shares in her portion of an interview on Lunch Break, that it's more prevalent than we think, while Dr. Jay Neitz explains that for most folks it's red-green colorblindness. What is interesting about this article is that it elaborates on research that was done in 2009 by Dr. Jay Neitz, which was documented proof that he was able to restore red-green vision into two squirrel monkeys. This was done by inserting the missing gene into a virus that was then inserted into the monkey's retinas.
While the monkeys are still given vision tests to prove that they can identify colors on a computer screen, this gene therapy has not been perfected for humans at this time. There is no doubt that these hurdles need to be overcome, and hopefully in the near future, Dr. Neitz will have his answer on whether or not it's safe and effective for humans too.
So, what about new aids for helping those with colorblindness see color better? Just when you thought technology couldn't get more involved the article shares that there is now a DanKam augmented-reality app for iPhone and Android that were developed using the principle that reds and greens are more vivid and bright, that the user can see when looking through the camera. In fact, some have referred to this app as "magic eyes". While the apps don't force them to view the color as they are, they are more vivid, so that the user can tell the difference between the two. In addition, the article is thorough in covering online tools that those with colorblindness can use as well, like Color Name and Hue to help them identify colors, and the Colorblind Avenger app for smartphone cameras. Videogames like PopCap's Peggle and Zuma Blitz include a gamer switch, so that colorblind gamers can see shapes to identify with color codes.
The article was great in that it covered a lot of research and information on colorblindness, but even better, it talks about real solutions for helping everyone see a more colorful world.

What is Kids Village Arts Preschools doing about mosquito control?
In case you haven't heard, mosquitoes have been big news in Miami lately. This summer has turned into the worst summer on record for mosquitos in our City.
Now with a new school year starting up we are taking additional measures to keep your kids safe from mosquito bites.
Steps we are taking:
- Source Reduction – Perhaps the most important single thing we can do is to make sure that school grounds are not contributing to local mosquito problems. It's especially important to check water catchment basins, storm drains, low areas, and equipment storage yards and playground equipment for places where water might be caught and held.
- Treating Mosquito Resting Sites – Mosquitoes are primarily active in the evening and morning. During the day, adult mosquitoes typically rest in vegetation or other shaded sites. We can use this information to reduce mosquito numbers. Treatment of mosquito resting sites can dramatically reduce bites and biting rates in the immediate area of treatment.
- Low Volume Treatments – We are diligently working with the City of Doral to be included in community-wide spray actions.
- Education and Awareness – One of the most important messages that Kids Village Arts Preschool can send is the importance of wearing insect repellent DAILY. Please, use a good repellent EVERY morning.
Not all people are equally attractive to mosquitoes. Body chemistry differs from person to person and some of us smell more attractive to mosquitoes than others. Don't assume that because you aren't noticing bites that mosquitoes are not active.
Remember the 4 D's
DUSK/DAWN- Stay indoors at Dusk/Dawn. This is the time of day that mosquitoes are most active.
DEET-Use insect repellents that contain Deet when going outside, especially at times closer to dawn or dusk when mosquitoes are most active.
DRAIN – Remove all areas of standing water. Examples are pet dishes, birdbaths, and water dishes under potted plants. Repair faulty French drains. Remove debris from rain gutters. Mosquitoes will breed in this debris since it is normally damp under the debris. Remove all piles of dead leaf material from under trees and shrubs. This also is a breeding site.
DRESS– Avoid being bitten by mosquitoes by wearing light colored long sleeved shirts and long pants when going outside.

Know the Probioslim ingredients before purchasing
The consumers must always be aware about the benefits and ingredients of the product and supplements that are being purchased by them. This certainly helps them to stay free from the troubles after getting started with the consumption. Same is the case with those who have been looking for options to invest over Pro Bio Slim weight loss supplement. The Probioslim ingredients count in extracts prepared from papaya, figs and leaves of green tea. Besides this there are some added ingredients as well that effectively help in burring the accumulated fat and prevent further accumulation of fat cells. Since the product is prepared from most of the natural ingredients, the consumers can stay free from worries linked with side-effects from the products.
Digestive problem solutions with ProBioslim
The list of Probioslim ingredients also includes LactoSpore technology and Kiwi extracts. You can certainly depend over these ingredients to eliminate the extra accumulate fat and bring your body back in shape without waiting for too long. Besides just helping in weight loss, the product is also useful for those who are struggling with problems like diarrhea and digestive issues. You can depend over this weight loss supplement to escape from constipation and gas. However, makes rue that you are consuming the right dosages of this product in prescribed directions.
Buying Guidelines For Your Frying Pans
Below are the guidelines one should follow when buying a frying pan. In a recent electric skillets reviewed, info on how to choose the right skillet it is quite clear that the metal used to make the frying pan is very important. You must get a frying pan that is made of a metal that conducts heat evenly. This way, food gets evenly cooked. You may check out the reviews on the same in order to know the right metal that should be used to make a frying pan. Well the issue on whether to choose the stick or non stick pans is still on. Debate on whether coating interferes with cooking is also underway but the good news is that coating makes it possible for one to clean the pan easily after heating.
Well, another important feature one should watch out for is the handle. Well though wooden handles are the best, they are not dishwasher safe. That is why most people do not prefer such handles. It is highly recommended that you opt for a metal handle that is also hollow inside. This will not overheat even after prolonged heating of the pan. Reviews show that most pans that have metal handles also last for a long period of time.

Pictures speak louder than words. Therefore, we are always proud of successfully completed projects and the impressions that result from them. Here are some of our success stories!
Premium mobility subscription
CARE BY VOLVO is a car subscription model created by Choice and Volvo, following the saying "time is money" and the concept of "sharing, not owning". For a fixed monthly rate, we offer an all-inclusive package and take on any vehicle-related efforts, leaving customers more time to focus on what's important in life. For this we have created a website with a configurator for ordering online and set up the back-end. In addition, we provide second-level support, run the operational handling and create screen designs.
The Privilege Program is aimed at the staff of Jaguar Land Rover Germany. It offers all employees the opportunity to rent young used cars of their own brands for a year at very attractive prices. The booking is made via an exclusive portal provided by Choice. We also take care of the entire operational process including registration and handover of the vehicles. Jaguar Land Rover employees have unrestricted access to the portal and can even invite family members to the program. Employee satisfaction and brand loyalty increase without any taxable monetary benefit.
Eat your own dogfood – true to this motto, Choice GmbH operates the Noris Campus carsharing at its Nuremberg location. We believe in electromobility, autonomous driving and the concept of "on-demand usage instead of ownership". And because carsharing should be enjoyable, we operate a corporate carsharing project on our doorstep with Tesla's Model S and X, sharing the vehicles with the surrounding companies. In doing so we put our own services to the test, try out beta versions of our apps (and autopilots) and motivate employees and colleagues to follow up with "new" mobility concepts.
For further information on Noris Campus Carsharing please click here.
The mobility services of CC Rent a car include carsharing as well as short- and long-term rental. Customer proximity is particularly important to us, achieved through personal and individual care at your local rental station.
Whether for business or private use, CC Rent a car will make sure you get the most out of your trip. We will take care of your mobility so you don't have to worry about it. You can choose your desired car from a wide variety of vehicles. From compact cars to station wagons, from convertibles to family vans and SUVs, from trucks to luxury cars, the CC Rent a car fleet is both modern and eco-friendly. Book easily and conveniently online to rent your desired vehicle.
The brand "CC Rent a car" includes about 100 rental stations in Germany. About 1,000 employees are working under the roof of CC Rent a car. The total fleet includes about 10.000 cars and about 5.000 utility vehicles. In addition to the large population centers, CC Rent a car deliberatley operates in regional and local areas – from Bad Segeberg in Schleswig-Holstein to Rottweil in Baden-Wuerttemberg.
Uniform and transparent damage claims settlements at 7 autarkic locations of Germany's largest private Peugeot trading group, implementation of a nationwide 24/7 hotline, extensive marketing packages, increase in customer satisfaction while doubling the claims business volume – all within one year? No problem!
With "Addea" we have developed an internal open innovation tool enabling our employees to quickly and easily collect and publish ideas. Through a simple voting and bonus system these ideas can then be rated and rewarded. Since this is a white-label tool, it can be tailored to any corporate identity visually as well as content-wise.
We believe in the fundamental role of the electric motor in the mobility of tomorrow. But does the energy always have to be stored in batteries? Linde believes in hydrogen as a storage medium and came up with the idea of proving its suitability for everyday use in a public carsharing in Munich. And we did that together. We equipped the cars with our carsharing technology, programmed an app and corresponding website, set up the right back-end, answered calls and mails, sent invoices, processed payments and – last but not least – fueled up the cars with hydrogen and washed them when necessary.

I feel so honored and blessed when other photographers ask me to take their pictures! Kristen's husband is deploying soon and she wanted family photos taken before he left, and I'm so glad I was able to help them out. I've actually photographed Little Kailyn and her mom before at local photographer meetups, and it was fun to see the whole family together. The Stoltenbergs are not only super adorable and super fun, they're also some of the sweetest and friendliest people I've ever met.
We went to the K-State Gardens for their session, and I love it there! If you haven't made the visit yet, I highly recommend it. The gardens are peaceful and beautiful and, of course, a great spot for photo shoots! :) We also went over to the Old Stadium for some fun football-themed pictures... but you'll have to come back for Part 2 to see those!
Oh yeah, and don't forget to check out Kristen's website here. :)

Selected Attraction
"Arbeit macht frei" (Work gives freedom) is written on the old gate of the Auschwitz concentration camp.
The silence shouts here. Over a milion people were killed here during the second world war. Treated with cruelty, they were working and dying under inhumane conditions, mainly in gas chambers. Nowadays few buildings and a museum in this calm place only remind what happened nearly seventy years ago, what was the tragedy directed by German Nazis.
Auschwitz is one of thirteen UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Poland. In 2007, the World Heritage Committee of UNESCO officially declared the camp at Oswiecim as the Auschwitz - Birkenau German Nazi Concentration and Extermination Camp (1940-1945).

Watch your step! Fire ants are on the move
While you're standing there enjoying the breeze, the tiny but vicious insect predators will be climbing up your leg, which they're viewing as a gigantic threat to their survival, and preparing to attack.
The first sting will set off a barrage of others.
Fire ants bite your skin with their mandibles, hang on tight, and then jam the stingers on their abdomens into your flesh. (See an animated video here.) The site of the sting hurts — a lot — for several minutes. It then swells into a bump that eventually turns into a pustule that can last for days, sometimes becoming infected and requiring further treatment. The venom can lead to severe allergic reactions in some people, occasionally resulting in death.
Throughout the Southeast, as well as Texas and even parts of southern California, fire ants are annoyingly plentiful. And they're not going away any time soon.
"There's no silver bullet out there," said Tim Davis, a Clemson University senior Extension agent based in Richland County. "There's no eradication program for fire ants that has worked anywhere in the world. In the United States, they inhabit about 325 million acres. The majority of the country — whether too cold, too dry or both — does not have fire ants, but there are a lot of people in the areas where fire ants do thrive."
South Carolina is a haven for fire ants, especially in open and disturbed habitats. Where tree canopy cover exceeds 60 percent, they typically are not present.
With summer-like temperatures already baking the ground, this is the time of year fire ants become active again, wreaking havoc not just in yards, but also in gardens, pastures and farmlands. In addition to stinging humans, they prey on beneficial insects, worms, bird eggs and even small mammals.
"Fire ants are voracious predators," Davis said. "They will also tend aphids, herding them like cows. They'll prey on newly hatched chicks. They'll out-compete birds for their food sources, forcing the birds to forage farther for food, which exposes them to other predators. These kinds of impacts are hard to quantify, but they are probably a larger issue, ecologically, than just the human health issue."
About the only good news is that controlling fire ant populations is relatively simple, if you follow proper procedures. Many fire ant baits recommend spreading the product around the mound, but Davis said that for every mound you can see, there might be a dozen you can't. Therefore, he recommends broadcasting the bait over your entire yard with a hand seeder while being careful to avoid sensitive areas, such as ponds and gardens.
"We recommend that homeowners use about a pound to a pound-and-a-half per acre," Davis said. "This allows the ants to pick up the bait and bring it back to their colonies where it will kill the queen and the rest.
"But the key to success is to do this while the ants are foraging. So first you should put out test bait, like a little piece of hot dog, and then wait 20 to 30 minutes. If you see ants on the hot dog, then it's the perfect time to put bait on your yard. If you don't see ants, then you'll most likely be wasting time and money, because the baits contain oils that go rancid relatively quickly, and once they've lain on your yard for awhile and gone bad, the ants won't be interested."
Davis said following this procedure will usually kill between 85 and 95 percent of the fire ants in your yard. If you have mounds that continue to be a problem, then you can do individual mound treatments after that.
Less than a century ago, there were no imported fire ants in the United States. But since that time, red imported fire ants and black imported fire ants have been unintentionally brought into the country from their native South America via soil used as ballast in cargo vessels.
Fire ants live in colonies in the soil, and the mound you see above ground represents just a portion of the entire nest. The intricate web of tunnels below ground is extensive, including foraging tunnels that can extend dozens of yards from the main colony. The foragers use these tunnels — as opposed to holes in the mound itself — to enter and exit the nest.
Fire ants form new colonies when winged males and females soar hundreds of feet into the air and mate while in flight. The males die soon after, but the females land and then go in search of a place to start a new home. There will always be new queens looking for fresh starts, and they can re-infest from long distances. This makes it virtually impossible to eradicate fire ants permanently from your yard.
Fire ants cannot eat solid food, so they carry it back to the nest and feed it to the oldest larvae, which are able to externally digest solids and turn them into nutritious liquids. The worker ants then share this now-edible byproduct with the queen and the rest of the colony.
"I tell people, 'The only way to get away from fire ants entirely is to move up North,' " Davis said. "But with the technologies now available, the problems they create in your yard can be minimized with regular treatments."

Drake White feels like he's at the "tip of the iceberg" in terms of what he can achieve in his career.
The country singer was snapped up by Dot Records in 2015 and has enjoyed chart success with singles It Feels Good and Livin' the Dream since then. While this isn't his first time at the rodeo, it's the first time Drake has really felt as though he has good things in his future when it comes to his music career.
Speaking to Billboard magazine about his relationship with Dot, Drake explained: ""It is a great feeling. I think it lends itself to my attitude and just staying positive. Everybody's got their path and their own story. There's plenty of opportunities where I could have quit and gotten an engineering job, but I really feel like we are just beginning.
"We're just at the tip of the iceberg of what we're going to be able to do, and I'm just glad that God has given me the opportunity. I developed some fans in my early relationships with radio, and it's those people that I thank for giving me that chance. I feel like everything happens for a reason, and this is our time."
Drake will be taking to the stage at the New Faces Show on Friday night (24Feb17), as part of Nashville's 2017 Country Radio Seminar. He will be joined by stars including Jon Pardi and Grammy winner Maren Morris, and is thrilled to be given the opportunity to mix with so many big talents.
"To work as hard as everybody works, and to be a part of this class, that's all I have ever wanted - just to be in the conversation," he smiled. "To grow up in a CJ7 Jeep, sitting on a cooler, and listening to country radio, then having an opportunity to do it - grateful is the word that I think of."

"Corporate India realized the business potential of sports "
Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce & Industry (FICCI) is the largest & oldest apex business organisation in India. FICCI is India's only apex chamber of commerce with a dedicated sports division and full time sports experts. Bureaucracy India had a detailed conversation with Mr Rajpal Singh, Director – FICCI & Head, Sports & Youth Affairs, Labour & Employment.
Mr Rajpal Singh is an alumnus of Shri Ram College of Commerce and Delhi School of Economics, University of Delhi. Thereafter, he finished his LLB and MBA from Birla Institute of Management and Technology. He is a national level judo player, black belt 3rdDan from International Judo Federation and has represented India in Judo.
Here are the excerpts:
Our readers would like to know the genesis of the formation of Sports arm of FICCI.
FICCI's association with sports dates back to 2002. We were the first industry chamber to talk about business potential of sports in India. Our role is to "Corporate India has already started realizing the business potential of sports beyond CSR and cricket" create awareness about the sports development and business of sports. We are also closely working under the guidance of Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports (MYAS) on several policy issues which are going to be milestones in helping sports get its due place in the economy.
Compared to other Chambers of Commerce, FICCI has been very active when it comes to Sports in India. What prompted FICCI to take Sports so seriously?
Corporate India has already started realizing the business potential of sports beyond CSR and cricket. Many international sports championships are happening in India, domestic leagues are getting started. Real estate developers are investing in multipurpose sports infrastructure development in residential establishments to attract home buyers. Elite private schools promote their schools' sports infrastructure as USPs. Today, parents encourage their children to take sports as a career. Sports have huge
entrepreneurship and employment potential. According to a FICCI study, on "Sports as a Full Time Career" India will require a 0.3 Million sports personnel (support staff) by 2017. It says it all about burgeoning sports industry and business potential it has and hence FICCI's focus on Sports.
What services can companies expect from FICCI when it comes to investing in sports?
With the help of our associates FICCI is equipped to act as a facilitator and provide platform, advisory services and handholding to international or national organization interested in launching business and services in sports. Besides, we have market intelligence available with us and are networked with the right stakeholders including states. We have resources available with us in terms of FICCI Sports committee members to facilitate ideation and development of projects that support our vision of profitable promotion of the game.
All this is in addition to FICCI's USP of having Invest India and other direct connect with Sports World and most importantly market understanding and knowledge.
Turf is a flagship event by FICCI. What has been the response so far?
FICCI was first chamber of commerce to start "TURF" annual international convention on business of Sports. This is so far the biggest convention being held in India on business of sports. Year on year the convention is becoming bigger and better with exhibition, B2G and B2B networking sessions. Till date we had more than 2000 participants and more than 75 exhibitors and sponsors who join us for TURF every year.
There is a considerable increase in number of international delegates coming to India to attend TURF. We have had delegations from various European countries, Middle East besides participation from Australia, Singapore and SAARC nations.
What are the plans related to Turf in future?
In future, we would like to get more and more international delegates with their business plans to invest in India or other countries along with Indian sports enterprises. We want to show case India Sports Industry's potential not just in sports goods manufacturing but also in sports business expansion and who can play a critical role in bringing developing
countries potential to world stage. We would like to scale up TURF to project it not just as Destination INDIA but also as Destination SAARC and Destination ASIA in the future.
Kindly give a small note of your personal journey to being the Director of such an important portfolio.
I have been with FICCI for the last 18 years and have had the opportunity of representing FICCI on various policy and regulatory matters across sectors and in forums like WTO. I also have been a part of 9th-11th five year plan of various
ministries of Government of India. I represent FICCI in committees constituted by Government of India which includes committees on
• Infrastructure status to sports sector
• Promoting PPP in sports
• National committee to award
individuals and organizations for
encouraging sports development
I have been actively involved in important task forces and committees of Indian Olympics Association, Sports Authority of India, CWG-Organizing committee and National Sports Federationin in both individual and
organizational capacity.
Can you briefly summarize your business interests as Director Sports?
We are here to interact with individuals and organizations interested in launching business and services in sports sector in India. We have provided consultancy and launch pad to sports business development projects in India through our marquee events, network and reach with Government, industry and academia. We would be glad to connect with stakeholders with interests in being part of Indian Sports industry growth story.
