Should you select to turn into a web designer, most important benefit is that you simply use your inventive abilities to the best of your capability, try and come up with all modern concepts and show your expertise. Net design companies are one main supply of vacancies for internet designers, but there are others. I really like your viewpoint can't restrict our abilities underneath one big area round us is barely getting greater and we have now to work more durable to realize something.I've this dream ever since my childhood till now to turn out to be a prime graphic designer.(smiles) Now I must study browser scripting and server scripting sides.
Along with skills, a portfolio of relevant work to point out potential employers will likely be important. Most employers desire that candidates for web designer jobs have not less than a bachelor's diploma in net design or a related field, but some could also be tremendous with one who has an associate's diploma in internet design. Those that work in internet designer jobs should bring the consumer's vision for the website to life.
An online designer have to be educated about writing code, programming, and graphic design. As a result of based on Thek1ngsway he had learn this hub elsewhere on-line and subsequently condemned my unique work as a cut and paste job. Whereas at college a very good possibility is to hitch clubs or societies which embody computing, internet design or multimedia and the place the opportunity for creating websites may come up.
Actually, the information of Vector graphics and programming languages, you mentioned within the hub is actually necessary in net designing. Ram – it depends the place on the planet you live and it will depend on whether you decide to go it alone or be a part of an internet design /development firm. Glassdoor has thousands and thousands of jobs plus salary information, company critiques, and interview questions from folks on the inside making it simple to find a job that is best for you.
Along with the degree, a web designer should stay current on tendencies and apps that assist websites look their best. My comparison to artwork only matches the creativity aspect of internet design, there should even be a utility side. Thats why I feel that's the proper manner for me. A good friend of mine and I simply began to create a web site for my church (SDA) with a joomla's template, but we still have a lot to do. But I suppose that's simply the way you start.

Design Tips
Learn the art or skill of combining text and pictures through the art of graphic design. Graphic design is used in all aspects of the visual world and includes everything from the text you read, the brands you believe in and other visual elements of the known world. Many people in the general public do not fully realize the vast scope of graphic design or its vital role in the world.
At the heart of Design is visual communication where all good design lives. A good design properly communicates exactly what is necessary without over complicating the message. A great design is memorable well beyond the viewers initial interaction with the design and may stick with the viewer for longer than anticipated.
These tips do not cover the entire scope of graphic design and visual communication but they do at least cover some basics. Select each subcategory and read through the content to learn more. In the end you will have a solid grasp of graphic design. This information will help you develop a strong design on any of our custom printed products.

Do I have to be PCI Compliant?
Yes, all merchants are expected to be compliant with in the requirements of PCI Data Security Standard. In addition to being a good way to protect your business, you will save money by being compliant. Our staff is ready to help. Just give us a call at 937.522.0032. For more information, see "Security is everyone's responsibility. Everyday."
Does NPS process anywhere in the US?
Yes, National Processing Solutions is registered in the US and handles processing in the US and around the world. While we pride ourselves on friendly, local service, we are happy to help merchants all over the globe.
What card types can I accept?
Your National Processing Solutions merchant account supports all major networks: Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, JCB, Wright Express, along with all pin based debit networks. We can also help you with gift and loyalty cards!
What should I look for when choosing a payments processor?
As with any other facet of your business, you want to work with true professionals who know their business and make it their job to understand your needs as well. Every day our staff of former bank employees comes to our professional office space in the Key Bank building in downtown Dayton, Ohio, ready to provide exceptional service to our merchants. It is important to know where your data is being housed. Many salespeople in this industry work out of their homes or cars. Do you want your critical personal information (address, date of birth, social security number, and bank account information) driving all over town, or left out in someone's home? Our clients can trust that their sensitive information is housed in secure filing cabinets in a secure office in a professional office tower.
It's important to know what you are paying for and how you are paying it. It only makes sense to pay for what you use, but some companies will charge you a monthly minimum fee or early termination fee if you decide to leave them. NPS believes we have to earn your business every day and sticking you with exorbitant fees or holding you hostage with an early termination fee isn't a very good way to inspire your loyalty.
When you need help with something, it's important that you are able to get face to face assistance. Most people would never hire an accountant from out of state, so why would you trust your cash flow to someone states away who has no real interest in your business? We live in the Dayton region, we work here, and we shop here. We want to help you be successful and we know sometimes that means we may need to sit face to face to talk about your equipment needs, or other ways we can support your business.
How do I get free equipment?
While some competitors offer free equipment, we do not. The reason for this is simple. If we give you free equipment, we will charge you more on your processing to recoup our expense. Anyone who says otherwise is likely lying, or won't be in business long enough to worry about it.
Don't see your question answered above? Feel free to ask NPS!

Bring Your Own Rake at Jordan Park
Wednesday, June 21, 2017
4pm to 8pm
Please join Townscape for our second annual "Bring Your Own Rake Event!" This year, Townscape will be working at Jordan Park to get it ready for fall recreational use. On Wednesday, June 21st, from 4 PM to 8 PM at Jordan Park, volunteers will be working to cut back the brush area immediately surrounding the soccer fields, remove brush and branches that may make it hard to retrieve errant soccer balls, clean up fallen branches, and remove trash from the general area. There is much work to be done to help get this recreational space ready for use by the town's children during soccer season!
Volunteers can RSVP to the event by using Sign-Up Genius to select their "shifts".
It would be very helpful if volunteers could bring rakes, tarps, shovels, gas-powered weed whackers, and other equipment they might use to clean up their own yards. The newly-opened Capital One Café in Lynnfield's MarketStreet has kindly offered to provide staffing and some food and beverages for volunteers as part of this event. Individuals with questions can contact Townscape at 617-680-2728 or via email at: email@example.com
Many thanks to local residents who have continued to support Townscape's efforts to maintain the character and quality of the town through their work!

Skyrim's 'Hearthfire' expansion is available to download for the PC.
Costing £3.49/$4.99, the add-on, which enables users to buy land and build homes from the ground up, can be purchased through Steam.
Gaming: Skyrim Hearthfire screenshotsOnce a plot of land has been purchased, users can design anything from a simple one-bedroom cottage to a sprawling mansion.
Homes can be fitted with armouries, alchemy labs, stables and gardens, and populated with mounted trophies, display cases and furnishings.
Users can also own animals, adopt children and hire stewards to work as personal bards or medieval taxi drivers.
A PS3 release, meanwhile, is reliant on the launch of the 'Dawnguard' DLC, which was delayed earlier this year due to technical difficulties.
Bethesda has previously updated Skyrim to provide improved kill cameras and to add Kinect support to the Xbox 360 version.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim was released for PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in November. It was named as the fastest-selling PC game on digital distribution service Steam.

I'm in awe that I don't have a job. Like scary, amusing awe. It's almost as if I am watching someone else live their life and have yet to realize it's actually mine.
On December 18th, I left the corporate world to launch a full time speaking, training and career coaching business.
So while I don't have conventional "go into the office and clock in" job, I do in fact have a very real un-job that is this grand adventure into solo-preneurship. This very first week has been a bit surreal (I have a vague memory feeling like this while out on maternity leave wondering what to do all day).
Granted as this is last week of 2015, a vacation week for most, I'm not the only person in the world who didn't set an alarm and go be productive somewhere. Lots of people are enjoying this holiday break while their office is closed. But still, it's been a wondrous feeling knowing I have a clean slate with which to craft every single day.
These first five days have been a fascinating study of my discipline and focus. I mean really, with no actual "work place" to go to, the main thing standing between me and the welfare line is my ability to stay the course and be effective with my time. Here's how the week panned out:
Get up on my own before 7 - check (I tried setting a 6 am alarm and promptly snoozed it, which in fact now sounds like a fail)
Change out of yoga pants - fail (but they are soooo comfortable!)
Go for a run - check (mir-a-cle)
Work on work - check (oh yea, that's the whole point)
Limit Facebook - half-check (it's considered networking right?)
Minimize going down the rabbit hole of online distractions - fail (endless clicking through)
Go out to lunch with anyone who asked - check (which actually means fail)
Clearly my planning needs to be up-leveled. With 8+ hours to fill each day, I started making lists of what had to be done each day.
I have project lists in Asana, I have scribbled lists on paper, I have notes on my iPhone, I have middle-of-the-night mental lists that evaporate by sunrise, all of which have yet to be seamlessly joined into a concerted "what the heck am I doing next?" list.
Lists = 4, Cecilia = 0
In order for this leap into the great unknown to have any chance of succeeding, obviously I've gotta work a few of these kinks out. This is what I have found after 5 days of working my un-job:
1. The wide-openness of a day is daunting - Making lists is a start, following them to an absolute T is critical.
2. Distractions are called distractions because, well, they distract - The evil king Facebook and his nasty twin brothers Twitter and LinkedIn sucked up hours I can't get back. I had more success with my to-do list later in the week when I scheduled an hour to troll social media and work it on behalf of my business.
3. I don't miss much about my old job (yet) - Besides a few stellar co-workers who brightened my life, the drama and politics of my previous position I'm happy to leave behind. I'm sure if you give me a few more months of working from home, I might feel differently about not going into an office every day. For now, it's a breath of fresh drama-free air.
4. Having my feet to the fire is exhilarating - I never in a million years thought I could own my own business. I like steady. I like secure. I like having a paycheck. Solo-preneurship has quite a bit less of all that. But knowing that my success is tied to what I am doing every minute of the day is exciting. Stressful, yes but exciting too.
5. I am here to learn - Every single day, my job is to find the lessons in what I am doing, so that I can tweak, finesse and work to get better. Did I send an email that didn't get the reply I anticipated? Well then, review how I wrote it and see what I can do better next time. Did I lose out on getting a training gig? Well then, ask questions of the client to see why. The more I learn and the faster I do it will be the ultimate game changer.
Clearly I don't know much after 5 days of working for myself. But, what I do know is this is quite possibly the best decision I have ever made.

The DOMS set in from yesterday's back squats. It was hard to stretch with all the soreness. Today we did a pretty long WOD:
400M Run
15 overhead squats 45 lbs
10 tire flips
4 rounds
Time: 19:14
The overhead squats were hard today! I am pretty sure it's because of the sore legs.
Then it was work and then home again and then swim lesson at 8 pm. We progressed to the freestyle stroke and I was able to swim halfway up the length of the pool without pausing. I had problems keeping my feet parallel and kicking above the water until she told me to keep my chest down, it helped but I need to work on it. My eyes got irritated (I really need to find my goggles before the next class) but overall fun and tiring!

Two days ago, I wrote about how to appropriately respond when a friend publicly shares her story about harassment, assault or rape. But, in the natural way of things, appropriate, loving, sympathetic responses have their nasty counterparts: inappropriate, hurtful, mean responses.
It's unfortunate that so often it's well-meaning people who give these responses. They may use tropes from popular culture as a guide to how to respond, and popular culture doesn't deal with sexual violence well. They sometimes overgeneralize from their own experiences. They may simply have just not considered how their comment will come across. I want to make it easier for these well-meaning people of the world to respond helpfully to their friends.
Here, then, is a list of what responses not to give when someone you know has been brave enough to share her story, along with explanations. If you recognize your own past comments in this post, I ask you not to react defensively. I am not attacking you; I know you were doing your best. I am sharing my understanding of how you can do even better.
If curious, see my note from last time on my use of feminine pronouns.
How Not to Respond to a Publicly Shared Story about Harassment, Assault or Rape
1. Don't Apologize for or Defend the Perpetrator: Your friend has just invited the entire internet to peer into an incredibly private and hurtful event in her life, something awful that someone did to her. Please, please, please do not respond to her by defending what was done to her. You may think she has a bad read on the situation. You may know the person she's talking about. But if you are trying to be a friend, know that there is essentially nothing more harmful you could do. You are defending harm that was done to her, an unwanted sexual experience of some kind. You are placing yourself on the side of someone who did her wrong. That's not what friends do.
2. Don't Question the Experience, or Her Interpretation of Events: Let me be careful about this one. I do not mean that your friend could not be wrong about how certain events transpired. I do not mean that she could not have interpreted an action or behavior in a way different than was meant. What I mean is, the fact that your friend is hurting should be enough to warrant sympathy, not interrogation. This holds even if you know that the thing that made your friend uncomfortable is something you do sometimes and you don't mean anything by it. Even you know the person in question and you know he or she didn't mean to make anyone uncomfortable. Even if you think your friend is being kind of sensitive.
Because none of that erases the fact that she was made to feel uncomfortable, or violated, or hurt. When you question that, you make it seem like you don't particularly care that she's hurting, or worse, that it's her fault she's hurt. Even simple factual corrections take the focus away from what happened to her and how she felt and put it on whether she got the order of events right. It's not the point, and it's not the time.
If you really feel that you must give a correction (and really, do so with care), here's how to frame it:
Original comment: "Michael always puts his arms around people. It's not a big deal"
Better comment: "This doesn't make it ok, but just for the record, I happen know Michael, and I know he doesn't mean harm when he puts his arm around girls. But he should have asked you before he did it, so it really sucks that you were made to feel uncomfortable." [Addition in italics credit to Ami]
2b. Corollary: Don't argue that the experience was actually a good one: If your friend doesn't feel like the harassment, assault or rape was a compliment (hint: usually not), then it's not. It's not good that "at least [she] can get a date," as Ami points out. If your friend tells a story about something unpleasant that happened to them, and you play it like it was some blessing in disguise, it comes across like you're not really listening, and also that you don't really care about how your friend says she feels. Please, listen to your friend. Trust her. Credit: Ami
3. Don't ask about irrelevant details: What your friend was wearing, how drunk she was, whether she was alone and anything else she has chosen not to share with the world, don't matter. Just as in #2, whatever the answers are, your friend has still experienced discomfort, violation and/or pain at the hands of someone else. That's the most important thing. Focusing on the details again makes it seem like you don't much care about the event itself, or how your friend feels. And when you specifically focus on details like the ones I used as an example, you come perilously close to implying that if she were wearing a short skirt, drunk, or alone, that it is her fault. That's not fair to your friend, and it's extremely hurtful. Just don't.
The examples I used above are pretty specific to the post-sexual violence questions addressed at women, and especially cis-women. If your friend has a nontraditional sexual violence narrative, all the analysis still holds. Don't ask about irrelevant details. Don't pry if your friend doesn't share. Even if you're just curious. That last part holds especially when your friend doesn't have the standard story, because they probably already feel different. So if your friend has a penis, don't ask if they got hard. If your friend is trans, "don't ask about their genitals, or …how they could have been raped with the genitals or body that they have." It's nosy and blame-y and unsympathetic. Let your friend tell what they are comfortable with. Credit for the ideas in this above paragraph: Ami
4. Probably the most important: Don't tell your friend how she could have done better, or what she should do in the future:
Part A: I know you're trying to help. I know you're sure it's good advice, that it's helped you before. But remember that to have experienced something frightening or traumatic and then to be told that if only you had done something differently, it wouldn't have happened, hurts. It hurts a lot, and it comes off as blame, even if you don't mean it to.
Consider telling a story to your friends about how a boss yelled at you all day for no reason and you were really upset about it, and their response was, "Well, you should always try to have a good relationship with your employer." Even if it's true, it's incredibly unhelpful now. Also, it changes the subject from the mean boss and the awful day to whether your friend is a good employee. That's mean, and it tends to imply that they deserved what they got.
Now imagine how much harder it hits when you call into question not whether your friend is doing their job correctly but rather whether they are living their life correctly. And because we're talking about a publicly shared story, other survivors and victims will see what you've written, and see that your first thought was to correct the behavior of the victim, and they will know that their story will likely be met the same way. That hurts.
Part B: Further remember that women are constantly told about all the ways that they can avoid sexual violence, which means that the odds that you will say something your friend has not heard before are vanishingly small. Don't walk alone at night? Heard it. Always watch your drink? Heard it. Don't engage with strange men? Heard it. So even if your advice is good advice, it's just not the time.
Remember that the time right after going public with a story of sexual violence is a sensitive and scary one. If your friend hasn't asked for advice, you are more likely to hurt her than help her by giving it. If you are close friends, and you really think there's something you can say that will make your friend safer in the future, there might be an exception, but please give your suggestion privately, sympathetically, and in a thoroughly unblaming way so as not to fall into this category.
Part C: Finally, please remember that your friend is not the only person in her story. There is a perpetrator, a harasser, assaulter or rapist. And if your comment, or even a part of your comment, ignores the rapist's wrongdoing in favor of the victim's wrongdoing, that hurts immeasurably. I realize that it seems like the perpetrator's wrong could go without saying, and yet it so often does not. Rape apologetics is everywhere. So by focusing on what your friend could have done better, you are telling her that she has not lived her life rightly enough that people will not correct her behavior before correcting her attacker's.
I will continue to add to this list based on the ideas of my wonderful commenters, with credit always given.
5. Don't say how you would have made it better had you been there: I know this one seems really supportive ("I totally would have beat up that guy", etc.), but it's another one to be careful with. It takes the attention from your friend and her story and makes it about you and your (rightful) anger at what happened to her. This makes it harder to tell stories, since it feels like no one is really paying attention. As Ami says, "I'm really tired of guys trying to make me sharing something like this into some heroic fantasy of theirs where I'm the damsel to be saved. :\" Credit: Ami, Ellen
6. Don't tell your friend she's doing it wrong: Kind of a corollary to #2, and also #4. These experiences are hard, and people respond to them in all kinds of ways. The only people who are really qualified to decide whether your friend is reacting "correctly" are her and the people she most trusts to talk to about it (including possibly a professional of some kind). This all holds double if you yourself experienced something similar and have reacted differently. That's great for you, especially if the experience didn't cause lasting harm. But your experience isn't universal, and it's not fair to assume that it should be. Let your friend respond how she needs to. Again, trust her. Credit: Miriam
Too many people experience harassment, assault and rape every day. Some of them manage, through the pain, to tell their stories. It is unconscionable not to respect that brave decision. So if it is your friend who has endured that pain, please consider this list. Please think about not contributing to a culture that blames women for the sexual violence aimed at them. Please think about what has happened to them instead of what they may have done wrong. Please think, first and foremost, about what they need, and what you can give them. Remember that your words have power; be careful with them.
Anything else you think should be on the list? Any responses you've given or would like to give or have seen given that you want my take on? Put it all in comments.

Another birthday entry. This year I broke my "rule" about celebrating Birthday out of the United States. As we recall, 2000 was celebrated at the boardroom at Alliance Bank in Germany, 2001 was celebrated in a restaurent in Tokyo. I almost arranged 2002 to be in London, but all the flight connections was getting a little crazy due to the late planning. So I just took a "me" day. Indulge myself in doing pointless fun things for the day. Local weather turned out to be beautiful 80+ degrees and sunny. I aways wonder whether one should take these special days that seriously. I think they mean more to one's friends and family then to one self. Maybe I just feel guilty to take advantage of these special days. Susan B. Anthony has a more profound way of saying this:
Sooner or later we all discover that the important moments in life are not the advertised ones, not the birthdays, the graduations, the weddings, not the great goals achieved. The real milestones are less prepossessing. They come to the door of memory unannounced, stray dogs that amble in, sniff around a bit and simply never leave. Our lives are measured by these --Susan B. Anthony (1820-1906) American reformer

Hey, pro athletes: STOP DRIVING DRUNK! Seriously, what is it going to take to get you guys to stop getting loaded and then hopping behind the wheel of a car?
Less than two months ago, Dallas Cowboys backup nose tackle Josh Brent was charged with involuntary manslaughter following a night out on the town after he got into an accident that killed his passenger and teammate Jerry Brown . And, now comes the news that yet another Cowboys nose tackle Jay Ratliff got popped for DWI early this morning after he was involved in an accident with an 18-wheeler. Police say his blood-alcohol content was more than twice the legal limit when they tested him shortly after the accident.
The saddest part about all of this is that if Ratliff of all people can't stop himself from driving drunk, athletes may be doomed. The guy literally just saw one of his closest friends on the Cowboys go through hell because of an incident involving drunk driving. So, if he can't steer clear of drunk driving, is there any hope for other athletes?

Last night, the City Mission, Church on the Rise and the Land Bank cut the ribbon on a new project called Hope House. This is a partnership to provide homes to families coming out of Laura's Home who are ready for the responsibility of owning a home. City Mission manages the Laura's Home family homeless shelter and found a property worth saving from the Cuyahoga Land Bank. They went to Church on the Rise to provide the funding and volunteer base to make this project work.
Michelle (pictured here on her new back porch) and her five kids will be moving into the property. She has seven children with two adult children living on their own. Michelle was beaming last night showing off the work that she did on the house. She has put in the sweat equity with the other members of the congregation to help put this house together. She helped scrape off old paint and cleaned up the backyard. She carried building materials and assisted all the craftsmen who helped put this house back together. There were so many who donated materials and labor in order to return this dilapidated house that will help with the effort to heal this neighborhood.
Councilman Tony Brancatelli said that he was honored to be at the ribbon cutting, and Gus Frangos of the Land Bank said that this is the exact project that the Land Bank was created to do. Both felt that Michelle was going to be a wonderful neighbor as she has overcome so many obstacles to get to this place. WEWS-TV5 attended the festivities and interviewed Michelle. It was an uplifting day to see a family move from the shelter into a renovated house. It has new windows, fresh paint, a new porch, brand new floors and a newly renovated kitchen. The house was cut up and beat up and eventually abandoned. Michelle will raise her family in this beautiful home after a slight interruption of instability. They are right on a busline in a recovering neighborhood. People brought welcome baskets from throughout the community. They brought food and towels and household items to welcome her to the neighborhood.
This is a new venture for the City Mission called Hope House and we hope that this is the first of many similiar projects to move families back into housing. It is a great project that is the subject of almost every gathering of homeless people. "Why can't we rebuild all those abandoned properties in the community to reduce the homeless population," is what we hear at almost every meeting of more than three homeless people. This house is the answer to those questions. It takes a partnership between the homeless providers, government, and religious organizations to make this work. We hope that more churches and synagogues will step forward to help. Congratulations to Michelle and the staff of City Mission for making this work. Thanks to the the Church on the Rise Congregation led by Pastor Paul for stepping forward to be the first congregation to purchase the house and contribute the volunteers.

On Beauty's Loom A Healing Art is Woven
For Baldur, the Fairest and Wisest of them All
Say, pain's resolution in beauty is woven,
And on that loom the clashing forces find
Their transcendent harmony at last, as fairest
Judgements settle strife, returning frith
To those forgotten of their kin- or kithship.
Beauty no less wise is, and such wisdom
Is, at heart, for knowing how to bring
To concord what discordant strained or ripp'd
The weeping heart to woe, and hope restore :
And all these precious benefices beauty
Gives, if we will seek sincerely for it.
Beauty blends, and order gives, restores
To shape misshapen forms, and finds what fits
The all-around equation of the heart ;
And thus returns proportion to the world
Where it was lost, and lays the firmest ground
For good to prosper, that each being might
Its own fair ratio to the world discover,
Thriving thus, and giving thrive in turn
To all that good surrounds it. So our soul
The storm of what awry is tossed may take
And turn it on the wheel of wisdom, form
Replenish full, and thus give heal to that
Which ill did threaten scatter balanced form.
And in that balanced concord we may find
Such sheer adornment, and a blessed salve
Assuaging what did tug and tear the heart
That we may beauty call it truly – more :
The genius of the resolution praise
As most creative might, imagination
Wild and beneficent, to find
A way to contradictions midwife, giving
Birth to something new and lovely. This
With reason we may call creation. Thus :
There is no art a healing art is not.

File this under, "What are you thinking?"
Terry Jones, a pastor of a church in Gainesville, FL made national headlines by hatching a plan to burn 200 copies of the most holy book in Islam, the Koran. Book burning evokes images of Fahrenheit 451 and the Nazi book burnings in Germany.
Jones planned it in order to commemorate 9/11.
President Obama called it a "recruitment bonanza" for Al-Qaeda and other extremist groups.
Angelina Jolie, visiting the flood-impacted regions of Pakistan was at a loss for words as well.
Sarah Palin tweeted and Franklin Graham intervened. Jim Daly from Focus on the Family blogged about it. Pat Robertson even offered a voice of reason (remarkable considering the firestorm his words caused immediately following the 9/11 attacks).
Even Muslim leaders reached out to Jones.
The American Bible Society ran a full page ad filled with signatories of major religious groups under the Burning the Qur'an does not illuminate the Bible.
Perhaps all of this worked, and that's why Jones and his church reversed course. Now, the media may have made a mountain out of a molehill on this one. But I have to stand back and wonder at how Jones let this unloving, unChristian, and unJesus idea get so far that the condemnation is near universal.
The Chinese have a proverb: Let a bird fly over your head but don't let it nest in your hair. It is meant as a caution against ideas that are dangerous or ill-conceived.
Jones let this bird nest in his hair long enough to attract international attention to his church in Gainesville, FL and his "idea" to hold "Burn the Qur'an Day."
Pastor Jones, What were you thinking? How did you think this idea was consistent with the love of Jesus as lived out in his earthly ministry?
Perhaps most are uncomfortable because it violates that most basic of rules–the Golden Rule–"Do unto others as you would have them do to you." I would prefer to not see the Bible–which I regard as the Word of God–burned in protest of my religious beliefs.
What do you think? Can Jones' idea be defended on any grounds other than "free speech?" Can you think of a better way to commemorate the 9/11 attack that reflects the height, and breadth, and depth of Jesus love for us?

ACR 2017 RFS Meeting Highlights
This year's third edition of The Crossroads of Radiology, which included the 25th RFS meeting, may have been the most stimulating and event-packed meeting that I have had the pleasure of attending yet.
Our new RFS Chair, Colin Segovis, MD, PHD, kicked the meeting off with a welcome address and introduced our first speaker of 2017, Keith Dreyer, DO. We had to pleasure of hearing from Dr. Dreyer as our keynote address because of his role as the chair of the ACR Commission on Informatics and the perceived threat many radiologist and trainees are concerned about with the advent and maturation of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning. The idea of saving the best for last was obviously not in the works this year, as Dr. Dreyer's address was more like starting things off with a bang. It was a motivating and enlightening address for the future radiologists in the room by one of the champions for the ACR in preparing our field for the future. This turned out to fit perfectly with this year's meeting, as it was later announced that the ACR would be implementing a new Data Science Institute.
A final chance to hear from last year's RFS Executive Committee (EC) members kicked off the business side of the meeting. We were updated on the goals and objectives that the EC achieved over the past year in office. Reports covered the broadening of a social media footprint, diversifying the RFS base, and strengthening resident educational programs. The RFS RADPAC representatives wrapped up this portion of the meeting with the yearly update. RADPAC continues to be the second highest physician-funded PAC, with nearly 300 residents contributing every year. With the continued support from those who contributed, RADPAC had an extremely successful 2016 election season, with 98 percent house race success and 89 percent senate race success.
An intriguing panel session comprised of several newly branded attending radiologists sparked a well-received discussion highlighting the typical pros and cons for academics settings, private practice radiology, and teleradiology. The last presentation of the day featured Zeke Silva, MD, FACR, chair of the ACR Commission on Economics. He provided the RFS with a very helpful explanation of the future impact of MACRA and process of an RVU becoming a dollar.
In with the new and out with the old. The 2017 RFS elections came down to the wire with many of the positions as well as a record turnout in nominations. We welcome our newly elected RFS EC team Daniel Ortiz, MD, Christopher Mutter, DO, Monica Wood, MD, Kimberly Beavers, MD, Michele Retrouvey, MD, and Meghan Macomber, MD. Christopher McAdams, MD, and David Mihal, MD, well serve as our new Intersociety Committee representatives. Our Nominating Committee team includes Yayone Rivaud, MD, Jamie Williams, MD, and Tucker Fischbeck, MD. Specific position and election information can be found on the ACR RFS webpage.
The day is not complete without a guest appearance by Harry Jha, MBBS, and Kay Vydareny, MD, FACR, associate executive director for diagnostic radiology at the American Board of Radiology for an open-microphone session to discuss the current ABR core exam, which is in its fourth year. A thorough presentation on the history of the ABR was followed with a somewhat heated but overall enlightening question-and-answer session between the audience, Dr. Jha, and Dr. Vydareny. The gist of the session resulted in the realization that the core exam isn't going anywhere, so start preparation, you rising R3s. Your turn will be soon right around the corner.
As a recent tradition, the second day opens with the RFS caucus, which is typically led by the previous year's chair (McKinley Glover, MD). The session began with a refresher describing the ACR governance structure and the policy-creation process. It is important to remember that there are only a total of five councilors to represent the whole RFS body, so this session allows for the councilors to stand as a unified front on certain issues in order to maximize our representation.
Out of the 45 total resolutions that will be legislated during the 2017 session, the RFS councilors felt two resolutions needed to be focused on during the RFS caucus. Under resolution 34 undergraduate students would be added to the member-in-training category. The resolution would also mandate that the ACR Commission on Membership and Communications would develop criteria for extending memberships to these undergraduate students. Resolution 23 would establish an exploratory fact-finding mission to explore the possibility of increased patients and patient stakeholders roles in ACR conference attendance and presentations. It would also include patients in the ACR membership or as participants in the Board of Chancellors.
The JACR staff Bruce J. Hillman, MD, FACR, JACR editor-in-Chief, and Ruth J. Carlos, MD, FACR, JACR deputy editor, were greeted with open arms for their second guest appearance in just as many years to discuss the day in the life of a JACR editor as well as a plug for the yearly Hillman Fellowship opportunity with the JACR. Naturally, one of the 2016 Hillman Fellows, H. Benjamin Harvey, MD, JD, was then introduced in order to share his experiences working side-by-side with the JACR editors for a one-week period followed by one-week with the journal's publisher, Elsevier. Interested in becoming the 2017 Hillman Fellow? The deadline to apply is August 31, 2017.
A yearly staple is the ACR Workforce Update for members-in-training, where the chair of the ACR Commission on Human Resources is invited to update the RFS members on what to expect when we attempt to find a job upon completion of training. This year's update was another positive one, as a large contingent of more seasoned radiologists is set to retire within the next five years due continued economic prosperity and financial stability for those older radiologists who may have put off retirement previously.
The session also highlighted the ACR's efforts to narrow the gender gap, as diversity is another issue that is important to stay ahead of the curve. A recent JACR articles, "Radiology as a Career for Women: Influences and Recommendations," further explored this issue.
Finally, we capped off this year's meeting with a presentation by Lawrence R. Muroff, MD, FACR, CEO and president at Imaging Consultants Inc., as part 2 of the Career Kickstarter session. Muroff discussed the topic of employment contract. The important takeaway points from this session: First, you should have a lawyer go over the contract with you so that you are aware of language that may discuss future financial obligations, the non-compete clause, or what your role will be in that new group. Second, there may be very little to no negotiations for the contracts of today, as each group will most likely have a single contract to eliminate infighting or ethically questionable practices. Lastly, Muroff underscored that though a practice or group can verbally promise you things all day, if those promises are not reflected in the paper contract then the group is not legally bound to honor them.

Weather threatening area Fourth of July attractions
DelGrosso's Amusement Park announced on Facebook that today's Summer Thunder 2016 is postponed to Friday or Saturday due to inclement weather.
Central PA 4th Fest Executive Director Karl Libhart, standing under a barely noticeable light rain, said there is no indication that the fireworks show on Penn State's campus would have to be delayed. The rain date for 4th Fest, on the unlikely chance it is pushed back, is Tuesday.
DelGrosso's said low visibility played a role in the decision. The annual Summer Thunder 2016 VIP Dinner Reception will be carried out as planned.
"We want our guests to have the most enjoyable Summer Thunder experience as possible, and unfortunately that is something that today's weather will not allow," DelGrosso's said. "We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your understanding."

Building RESTful API shouldn't be time-consuming and difficult, though it is. There are a few factors that can cause delays, like wrong technologies, understanding gaps, lack of communication, and much more. To facilitate the implementation process our team's created LoopBack-PostgreSQL generator, using current widely-adopted technologies and tools.
The npm package enables quick deployment of a new REST API project and obviates the need to worry about security, endpoints, and other parameters. LoopBack-PostgreSQL pack significantly reduces the development time and takes the pain of API scaffolding.
The yeoman package compiles:
- Loopback — Node.js framework for fast and convenient method for building REST API;
- Winston — universal and prompt logging library enables data storing in files and databases, coupled with data output to console;
- DB Migrations — package.json includes script for working with node- db-migrate;
- .env — library for environment variables management;
The project also includes configurations for working with S3 component and mailing via SMTP.
LoopBack-PostgreSQL generator benefits
LoopBack-PostgreSQL generator combines the advantages of both techniques and offers them in a convenient and simple way. LoopBack is renowned for rich toolkit, accurate security system, easiness of use, availability of performance stats, and much more. While Postgre is an extensible, cross-platform database that easily deals with bulky environments, offers strong community support, saves staffing costs (by lowering configuring and maintenance requirements), ensures stable and reliable performance, and so on.
Detailed installation guides can be found at npm Inc. and GitHub.
What is more, DA-14 contributes to LoopBack community on a regular basis and lately our team members borne away IBM LoopBack Developer and LoopBack Advocate badges.


text: Mishcon de Reya advised UK focused property investment and development company Helical plc on the disposal of its retirement villages portfolio to Legal & General for £102million. As part of the transaction, Helical has transferred the £46 million of debt secured against the portfolio to the purchaser and will receive 50% of the total net sale proceeds of £51m on completion, with the remainder deferred for 12 months. The portfolio comprises four retirement villages located at Liphook in Hampshire, Faygate in West Sussex, Exeter in Devon and Great Alne in Warwickshire. The villages are at varying stages of development but on completion, the four schemes will deliver 694 units in total. Gerald Kaye, Helical CEO commented: "We believe firmly that now is the right time to sell our interests in our retirement villages portfolio so we can focus solely on our core sectors where we expect to be able to generate stronger shareholder returns. Mishcon de Reya has been instrumental in the smooth completion of this large and complex transaction, capitalising on all the necessary expertise within its business. We continue to benefit from the extensive experience the firm has to offer." Corporate Partner Richard Tyler and Real Estate Partner Simon Hart led the Mishcon team acting for long-standing client Helical plc. Richard Tyler and Simon Hart commented: "This transaction shows the Corporate and Real Estate departments at Mishcon de Reya once again working closely together with input from other experts across the firm to deliver a comprehensive service to our clients. We're really pleased to have worked with Helical plc on another deal, having worked together for over 20 years.

It's hard to believe that Billy Gibbons (guitar), Frank Beard (drums) and Dusty Hill (bass) have been playing together as ZZ Top for almost forty years now. The trio formed in Houston, Texas in 1969 and has been going strong ever since. Although they hit their commercial peak in the late seventies through the mid-eighties, they've still got a pretty rabid following and their blues based, guitar heavy rock and roll still holds up really well, decades after it was recorded. Don't believe me? Then give ZZ Top - Live In Texas a spin on your Blu-ray player.
Shot entirely in high definition in 2007 at the Nokia Theater in Dallas, Texas, the eighty-five minute live set contained on this release is fantastic from start to finish. There isn't a lot of crowd interaction - just enough to let the audience know they care - instead, the three musicians concentrate not on working up the audience but on letting the music do the work for them. Gibbons' guitar playing remains as sharp and fluid as ever and he doesn't miss a lick while the solid rhythm section from Hill and Beard compliment the fuzzed out 'guitar up front' sound that the band is famous for. The stage show is flashy enough to make you take notice, but the giant hot rod styled LED display behind the band isn't so over the top as to take the attention of what matters most - the music.
With Gibbons and Hill clad in their trademark hat and shades, crazy beards blowing in the wind, and Frank Beard happily buried behind his drum kit, ZZ Top look just as they always have. The sexual innuendo and tongue in cheek lyrics that populate most of the band's music are still fun, and the music still makes you want to shake your ass.
The track listing for the concert is as follows:
Got Me Under Pressure / Waitin' For The Bus / Jesus Just Left Chicago / I'm Bad, I'm Nationwide / Pin Cushion / Cheap Sunglasses / Pearl Necklace / Heard It On The X / Just Got Paid / Rough Boy / Blue Jean Blues / Gimme All Your Lovin' / Sharp Dresses Man / Legs / Tube Snake Boogie / La Grange / Tush
All in all, it's a nice 'greatest hits' show with all the tracks you'd expect to hear at a ZZ Top show represented nicely. Completely deserving of their 2004 Rock 'n Roll Hall Of Fame induction (courtesy of host Keith Richards), the three men who make up ZZ Top continue as an active, important, influential and respected musical force and the performance on this disc stands as testament to why and how they band have lasted as long as they have.
ZZ Top - Live From Texas arrives on Blu-ray in a 1.78.1 anamorphic 1080i AVC high definition transfer. For the most part, the image is very strong. Shot entirely on HD in 2007, this picture is colorful, crisp, and very detailed. Black levels are strong and deep while color reproduction is very natural and authentic looking. All of the stage lighting and background effects look fine and even when the entire set is bathed in red hues, the picture stays clear. There's a little bit of aliasing but there aren't any problems with edge enhancement or mpeg compression artifacts. Skin tones look dead on and detail is very strong in the foreground and the background. Ever wanted to count the hairs on Billy Gibbons or Dusty Hill's face? Now you can!
Eagle Rock Entertainment has supplied three English language audio options on this release:
-48 kHz 24-bit DTS-HD 5.1 Master Audio
-48 kHz 24-bit LPCM 2.0 Stereo
-640 kbps Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound
The DTS track on this disc is the clear winner as it does a great job of using the rears to fill in audience response while keeping the front of the soundstage kicking along nicely. Bass response is excellent and the clarity of the mix is quite impressive, particularly in the guitar playing. Everything is balanced well and sounds great. The LPCM mix is the second best track and while it lacks the rear effects heard in the 5.1 mixes, it does contain some great clarity. The Dolby Digital 5.1 track is solid but it lacks the punch that the other two tracks bring to the table and doesn't sound quite as natural as either of the other mixes.
Eagle Rock has rustled up a few decent supplements for this disc, and they're all presented here in the same 1080i high definition quality as the feature. Things start off with a six minute featurette entitled Dallas Show Day where through the wonders of time lapse photography we get a quick look behind the scenes of the concert from the construction of the set to the fans lining up. There are some brief interview snippets with all three band members in here as well. Up next is the eighteen minute Poker Game, which is a strange pseudo history of the band where the three members talk about their time together over a game of poker. There are a few fun stories in here and you could argue that the poker playing is in keeping with their image even if it probably would have worked better as a standard history of the band featurette. A third documentary is the five minute Photo Shoot which is literally a look at the band having a good time at a photo shoot out in the desert. Last but not least, there's a bonus song included! The band do a pretty solid version of Jimi Hendrix's Foxy Lady and while it would have been nice to see it included with the main concert, at least it's here.
Interestingly enough, while there aren't any subtitles for the concert, there are subtitles for the supplements provided in French, Italian, Spanish, German, Portuguese and Dutch. Inside the case for this release is a six page booklet that provides a nice history of the band and some keen pictures as well.
ZZ Top has stood the test of time and remains a powerful musical force. Their music has aged well and their stage performance is still a lot of fun. They might be getting on in years a bit but the guys can still play like the Dickens and the great performance coupled with the very nice quality of this Blu-ray release earns ZZ Top - Live In Texas a very solid recommendation.

Argentina is the largest producer of wine in South America. They produce about the same amount of wine as the United States produces. The favorite grape of the region is the Malbec variety. This variety came from France, where it is used for blending. In Argentina it is used both as a varietal as well as for blending. Argentina has also imported Pinot Noir, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot from France. While Argentina is most well known for its red wines, it also grows Chenin Blanc, Chardonnay, and several types of sparkling wines.
Argentina grows many grapes other than the French varieties. One of the popular Argentinean grapes is Criolla, which was popular in California in the 1800s, where it was known as the Mission grape. Argentina also has a wide range of Italian grapes, brought there by Italian immigrants. These include Barbera, Lambrusco, Sangiovese, and Nebbiolo. Argentina has a good climate for any grape that flourishes in the cool arid climate found at higher elevations.
Chile has an exceptional climate for wine, and yet its wine was nearly unknown before 1980. This is in a large part due to the combination of a lack of effective marketing and political instability. Even though Chilean wine was only recently "discovered," many French varietals have been flourishing in Chile for quite a long time. Chile is also known for its red wines, such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. And Chile produces some credible whites, such as Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon, and Riesling.

In this second in an occasional series, Khalid Muhammad, author of Agency Rules—Never an Easy Day at the Office, talks about something as important as writing your book—marketing it. Brand is crucial to an author's success, and so is how you price your book. So who do you want to be?
Macy's or Wal-Mart—which are you?
There is a reason that marketers get paid the big bucks—we know how to position and market your product for the highest return. There is also a reason that 99% of us hate to compete based on price—because the next guy that comes along at 10 cents cheaper is going to steal our customer. That is capitalism at its finest. It doesn't matter if the product is better or not, if the price fits, the consumer will buy.
Why do they buy? Because you haven't given them a reason to stay with your product, in this case your book. And therein lies the rub …
When we spend months writing our book, detached from family, losing sleep, and inhaling more caffeine and nicotine than our bodies know what to do with, we are doing it because we have a story to tell. We want the readers to be absorbed, engaged and interwoven into the words that we put on the page. We want them to escape into the lands that we create, feel the emotions of our characters, and savor the experience until our next book comes to market. So why do we price our books so low that real readers don't touch them?
For most authors, they never think of the marketing side because they are too busy working on writing the actual book, which is much more important, nor do they have the capital to go out and hire someone to do the marketing for them. So they take on the task and find themselves competing for the Wal-Mart customer rather than catering to the Macy's loyalists. Let's stop for a second and talk about what that means.
I am a big fan of Wal-Mart. It's a great place to shop, and wonderful people work there, but we all need to be clear—we don't shop there because of the great quality, we shop there for the price. Because Wal-Mart buys in indecent quantity, they are able to offer a significantly lower price to the consumer so they don't need to worry about quality. They just need to keep the shelves full. Now, look at Macy's. They don't care about price. They focus on quality and the experience of the consumer. The Macy's shopper doesn't spend their time waiting for the flyer, they just go and buy. Price is not the decision point for them, it's quality and experience. So, you have to ask yourself, which one are you? Are you a price point or do you give the reader a fantastic experience? That's a tough question because it affects your entire marketing strategy, book positioning, and sadly, your book sales. So let's ask the question.
As an author, do you deliver a fantastic experience to the reader? Do you want to have loyal readers that send you emails, post on your Facebook page and hound you on twitter wanting to know when your next book will be out? If the answer to either of these questions is yes, then you need to think about the experience and forget the price.
Now, I'm not saying that you should jump your price to over $8 an e-book like the traditionally published authors, because you don't carry the same expenses nor do you have a publisher that is hungry to generate obscene revenue from your hard work. This is your baby. This is your money and only you know how best to price it, so price it that way.
I know there are a bunch of authors out there who believe the best way to sell their books is to drop to a .99 price. But can I ask you a question—what do you think when you walk into a dollar store? Are you there because you want the best quality or are you there because you want to get some inexpensive things? Yeah, I thought so. The same applies to when you give something away for free. You got something for nothing, so what is it really worth to you? I should be clear this does not apply to the books you give away for reviews because that is also a marketing activity and good reviews sell books. But if the reviewer sees that the price of the book is below the price of a McDonald's meal, they don't take it with much value.
So I leave you this week with this question—as an author, are you Wal-Mart or Macy's?

They talk about a teacher, who is dedicated to his students, both inside and outside the classroom, and they return the dedication tenfold.

Born in Pakistan's troubled Swat Valley, educated and raised in the United States, Khalid returned to Pakistan almost 17 years ago and fell in love with his country.

Dawn of a New Day (In More Ways than One)
OK. Two months shy of two years since Katrina, and I finally have internet service at home. Someday, I'll have enough distance to find the humor in the long road to here...but for now, I am just happy to have service.
Of course, it did come at a price. Rather than getting to sleep in at all on a Saturday morning (and my apologies to all the parents who don't ever get that luxury), I had no choice but to accept their earliest appointment - 8AM today.
No complaints. I have wicked (for you Allison) high speed connection and the privacy of my home. Ahhh....
Let the blog-barrage commence!!

The influence of submarine groundwater discharge on carbon, nutrient and greenhouse gases dynamics in coastal waters
Document Type
Publication details
Sadat-Noori, S.M 2017, 'The influence of submarine groundwater discharge on carbon, nutrient and greenhouse gases dynamics in coastal waters', PhD thesis, Southern Cross University, Lismore, NSW.
Copyright S.M Sadat-Noori 2017
This thesis documents the use of mass balance modelling combined with a multi-tracer approach, to quantify, interpret and manage coastal groundwater discharge. The dynamic characteristics of groundwater discharge requires intensive and multifaceted sampling strategies to constrain its effects on surface water quality. This thesis highlights that dissolved carbon, greenhouse gases and nutrient export from estuaries are strongly coupled to groundwater discharge therefore, should not be neglected in coastal carbon and nutrient budget studies. Results presented here indicate that even small volumetric groundwater discharge fluxes occurring on large scales play a major role in the hydrology and biogeochemistry of coastal ecosystems.
