F5 Container Connector - Marathon¶
This document provides general information regarding the F5 Integration for Marathon. Please refer to the guides below for deployment and usage instructions.
The BIG-IP Controller for Marathon (
marathon-bigip-ctlr) configures BIG-IP objects for Applications in a Mesos cluster, serving North-South traffic.
The BIG-IP Controller is a container-based Marathon Application that runs within the Marathon cluster. It configures the BIG-IP device as needed to handle traffic for Apps within the cluster. You can launch the BIG-IP Controller in Marathon via the Marathon REST API or the Marathon Web Interface [1].
The BIG-IP Controller watches the Marathon API for special "F5 Application Labels" that tell it:
- what Marathon Application we want it to manage, and
- what BIG-IP LTM objects we want to create for that specific Application.
When the BIG-IP Controller discovers new or updated Marathon Applications with the F5 Application Labels, it dynamically applies the desired settings to the BIG-IP device.
You can use the BIG-IP Controller to:
- create BIG-IP LTM virtual servers
- assign IP addresses to BIG-IP LTM virtual servers using IPAM
- create unattached BIG-IP LTM pools (pools without virtual servers)
- deploy iApps
General Prerequisites¶
The F5 Container Integration for Mesos Marathon documentation set assumes that you:
- already have a Mesos cluster running;
- are familiar with the Marathon Web Interface ;
- are comfortable using HTTP methods to make REST API calls;
- already have a BIG-IP device licensed and provisioned for your requirements; and
- are familiar with BIG-IP Local Traffic Manager (LTM) concepts and
The BIG-IP Controller requires Administrator permissions in order to provide full functionality.
|Per the Marathon documentation, the Marathon Web Interface is no longer actively developed. Use the Marathon REST API to access the latest Marathon features.
BIG-IP High Availability and Multi-tenancy¶
If you want to manage a BIG-IP device pair or cluster with the BIG-IP Controller, you should run one Controller instance per BIG-IP device.
The basic deployment steps are:
- Set up RBAC.
- Deploy a JSON Application file for each
- Provide a unique name for each Controller instance.
- Use a different BIG-IP IP address/hostname for each Controller instance.
- Use the same BIG-IP partition for each Controller instance.
Key Apache Mesos/Marathon Concepts¶
Application Labels¶
In Marathon, you can associate labels with Application tasks for tracking/reporting purposes. The custom "F5 Application Labels" notify the BIG-IP Controller that it has work to do. When the BIG-IP Controller discovers Applications with new or updated F5 Application Labels, it dynamically creates BIG-IP virtual servers, pools, pool members, and HTTP health monitors for each of the Application's tasks.
See the marathon-bigip-ctlr reference documentation for the full list of F5 Application Labels.
You can download the code example used in the following sections and modify it to suit your environment.
iApps Application Labels¶
You can use the BIG-IP Controller to deploy BIG-IP iApps using a special set of customizable iApps Application Labels. The iApp you want to deploy must already exist on the BIG-IP device (can be in the
/Common partition).
A few of the key iApp Application Labels depend on the iApp you want to deploy, as well as your environment and needs. See the marathon-bigip-ctlr reference documentation for more information about the Application labels required for iApp deployment.
Port Mapping¶
In Marathon, container-based applications using Docker BRIDGE mode must have port mappings configured. [2] For Applications proxied by the BIG-IP Controller, these port mappings make it possible for the BIG-IP device to route external traffic to service ports inside the Apache Mesos cluster. You can define multiple port mappings for a Marathon Application.
Most F5 Application Labels let you specify an index into the port mapping array, beginning at
These parameters include
{n} in the label key; simply replace
{n} with the port index to which you want the setting to apply.
For example:
The code sample below defines an Application with three (3) port indices.
"id": "server-app4",
"cpus": 0.1,
"mem": 16.0,
"instances": 2,
"container": {
"type": "DOCKER",
"docker": {
"image": "docker-user/node-web-app",
"network": "BRIDGE",
"forcePullImage": false,
"portMappings": [
{ "containerPort": 8088,
"hostPort": 0,
"protocol": "tcp" },
{ "containerPort": 8188,
"hostPort": 0,
"protocol": "tcp" },
{ "containerPort": 8288,
"hostPort": 0,
"protocol": "tcp" }
In the
labels section, we specify that we want to create HTTP virtual servers on the BIG-IP device for port indices
0 and
In this example,
0 refers to the first mapping defined above (
"containerPort": "8088") and
1 refers to the second (
"containerPort": "8188").
"labels": {
"F5_PARTITION": "mesos",
"F5_0_MODE": "http",
"F5_0_BALANCE": "least-connections-node",
"F5_1_MODE": "http",
|See the Docker Networking documentation for more information.
Marathon Health Checks¶
The BIG-IP Controller provides compatibilty with existing Marathon Health Checks. For ports configured with Marathon health checks, the BIG-IP Controller:
- creates corresponding BIG-IP health monitors;
- checks the specified port's health status before adding it to a BIG-IP pool. [3]
"healthChecks": [
"protocol": "HTTP",
"portIndex": 0,
"path": "/",
"gracePeriodSeconds": 5,
"intervalSeconds": 20,
"maxConsecutiveFailures": 3
"protocol": "HTTP",
"portIndex": 1,
"path": "/",
"gracePeriodSeconds": 5,
"intervalSeconds": 20,
"maxConsecutiveFailures": 3
"protocol": "HTTP",
"portIndex": 2,
"path": "/",
"gracePeriodSeconds": 5,
"intervalSeconds": 20,
"maxConsecutiveFailures": 3
|Occurs when
F5_CC_USE_HEALTHCHECK's value is "True".

Matthew 13:1-9 Jesus gave this parable explaining the main responses people have when hearing the Gospel of the Kingdom.
Matthew 13:11 Jesus' gospel was the Gospel of the Kingdom. Matthew 9:35; 4:23. Jesus, the great prophet, made known the mysteries of the Kingdom, but only those who had a genuine heart for God were able to understand. If the preachers and teachers of our day are an indication, the knowledge of the Kingdom is still a mystery.
Matthew 13:12 The granting to know and to understand the mysteries of the Kingdom of God has never been given in an arbitrary, capricious, or unjustly discriminating way; rather, this knowledge is given in direct relationship with the heart of the person. Those who hunger and thirst after righteousness have always been filled.
Matthew 13:13 Just showing up is not enough. God knows our hearts.
Matthew 13:18 Jesus always spoke the Gospel of the Kingdom.
Mark 4:23-25 Take heed to what or whom you hear. Matthew 7:14-20
Luke 8:16-18 Take heed to how you listen.
Galatians 1:6-10 The gospel that is taught today in the name of Jesus has little to do with the message that Jesus and his apostles (including Paul) taught.
Matthew 13:18 This parable is about how people who hear the message regarding the Kingdom respond and not those who hear a false message.
Matthew 13:19 In Matthew, he is called "the evil one;" in Mark, "Satan;" and in Luke, "the devil." Everyone who hears the Gospel of the Kingdom will be attacked by the devil (1 Peter 5:8&9). He is a supernatural force that works through lies and deceptions. He causes people to think their problem is with other people, when in reality we wrestle not against flesh and blood.
Matthew 13:20 and 21 Jesus warns his disciples that there will be affliction or persecution because of our faith. John 16:33
Matthew 13:22 The worry of the world and the deceitfulness of wealth; Mark says - "the worries of the world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the desires for other things enter in and choke the word;" Luke -- "they are choked with worries and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to maturity."
Matthew 13:23; Luke 8:15 We must remain faithful to receive the fruit. Perseverance is required.

Vapour Pressure Testing of Gasoline and Crude Oil - Regulatory Changes and Resulting Possibilities
Oct 16 2015 Read 14581 Times
Regulatory changes and increasing safety concerns in recent years led to extensive adjustments in process and laboratory vapour pressure testing. In the past it was required to determine the RVP - Reid Vapour Pressure according to the ASTM D323 standard. However, due to the sample preparation required by this standard, process analysers were never able to comply with it, but can only offer correlating measuring methods. Additionally, with ASTM D323 it is not possible to address the actual situation during transport of live crude oils. Developments
for crude oil measurements according to the advanced standard ASTM D6377 as well as recent Tier 3 regulatory changes for vapour
pressure testing of gasoline lead to changes that for the first time allow using the same measurement principle for process as well as laboratory measurements.
Vapour pressure is one of the key parameters measured in the gasoline blending process. Due to the increased use of ethanol in fuel the measurement of the Reid vapour pressure (RVP) is replaced by ASTM D5191 in the EPA "Tier 3 Motor Vehicle Emission and Fuel Standards", because "…ASTM D323…is not applicable to ethanol-blended gasoline. It is being replaced with an automated ASTM D5191…, which is appropriate for ethanol-blended gasoline" [1].
While most process vapour pressure testers, which use their own methods, can be correlated to RVP (ASTM D323), it is nearly impossible to perform process measurements exactly to this standard. With the piston based ASTM D5191 it is possible to perform high quality measurements according to the standard, but again the sample preparation as described in the standard cannot be done correctly. When performing a measurement according to ASTM D5191 it is necessary to cool the sample to a temperature of 0 °C to 1 °C and saturate the liquid with air. In between the multiple saturation steps it is required to let the sample cool again for approximately 2 minutes. These steps are necessary for reproducible measurements. During the measurement a single expansion is performed, thus just the total vapour pressure (a combination of the partial pressure of the dissolved air and the vapour pressure of the liquid) is accessible. This can lead to uncontrollable deviations caused by the user when the sample preparation is not performed as requested by the standard.
The solution for this is the use of ASTM D6378, which is based on the same measurement principle. However, this standard is based on a triple expansion step, which allows calculating the absolute vapor pressure of the liquid, as well as the partial pressure of the dissolved air. Cooling or air saturation is not necessary, thus making it the ideal solution for process measurements. For samples with a vapour pressure of ≤ 82 kPa ASTM D6378 has an even better repeatability than using ASTM D5191. For the reproducibility this value even increases to 92 kPa. This covers a large area of gasolines which have a common vapour pressure range of 48 kPa to 103 kPa [2]. Formulas are available in the corresponding standards to correlate the measurements according to ASTM D6378 with ASTM D5191 results. This formula was determined in an interlaboratory study (ILS) by ASTM.
When dealing with the vapour pressure of crude oils recent incidents showed that the currently used measurement methods are not sufficiently reflecting the conditions that occur during transportation or storage. This is especially true when using a vapour / liquid (V/L) ratio of 4 compared to more realistic values of e.g. 0.02 which would equal a tank filled to 98%. The Crude Oil Quality Association (COQA) and the Canadian Crude Quality Technical Association (CCQTA) are currently working on an extension of ASTM D6377 to express these conditions. With the "Mini Methods" it is possible to measure more than one V/L ratio within a single curve measurement thus combining multiple measurements in a single step. Current discussions indicate that these curves measurements should cover a V/L range of 0.1 or even 0.02 up to 4. The temperature will be kept at 37.8°C, but additional measurements at other temperatures might be necessary to cover changing ambient conditions during transportation or storage.
Within this publication we want the show the advantages using the "Mini Method" based ASTM D6378 and ASTM D6377 in terms of robustness and flexibility when analysing gasoline and crude oil.
Piston based "Mini Methods"
The "Mini Methods" for vapour pressure testing of gasoline and crude oil are based on a piston inside a thermoelectrically stabilised measurement cell (figure 1). The piston is used to introduce the sample into the measurement cell. It incorporates a pressure sensor and is used to create the vacuum above the sample to determine the vapour pressure. This eliminates the need of a vacuum pump before or during the measurement. Depending on the sample volume and the position of the piston after the expansion a wide range of V/L ratios can be selected. This allows to measure at realistic conditions e.g. when looking for vapour pressures that can be reached during transport and storage. The measurement cell is temperature controlled to allow measurements at a wide temperature range reaching from -20 °C to 120 °C independently from ambient temperature.
Figure 1: Measurement principle of the piston based vapour pressure analysers ERAVAP & ERAVAP ONLINE
Instruments & Samples
The gasoline measurements were performed using a typical Austrian gasoline blend. At the beginning of the measurements an infra red (IR) spectrum of the gasoline was recorded using eralytics FT-IR spectrometer ERASPEC. The spectrum is shown in figure 2 and some properties and parameters based on this spectrum are listed in table 1.
If not indicated otherwise the measurements were performed using the ERAVAP ONLINE (figure 3) process analyser from the Austrian manufacturer eralytics. During the measurements of gasoline ERAVAP ONLINE sampled one stream every 10minutes for 50 hours. For comparison a sample was taken every hour (during daytime) and measured with eralytics laboratory vapour pressure tester ERAVAP (figure 4).
The online and laboratory vapour pressure measurements of gasoline were performed at 37.8 °C. A triple expansion was used as mentioned in ASTM D6378 to measure the vapour pressure of the sample, the partial pressure caused by dissolved air and the total pressure. For a comparison of repeatability and reproducibility according to ASTM D5191 and D6378, the results of ASTM D6378 were converted to DVPE (dry vapour pressure equivalent) as described in the standard.
The crude oil measurements were performed with a Zarzaitine crude oil (density: 0.815 g/cm³). Typical compositions for crude oils of this region can be found in the literature [3] [4]. Due to transport and storage some of the light ends possibly were lost before the measurement, thus lowering the resulting vapour pressure, compared to literature values. When measuring the vapour pressure, the measurement cell was moved by a shaker as required by ASTM D6377. Curve measurements were performed with changing V/L ratios from 0.02 to 4 within a single measurement. Fresh crude oil was measured at various temperatures ranging from 0 °C to 75 °C.
Vapour Pressure Testing of Gasoline
During the measurement campaign with the process analyser the recorded vapour pressure remained in a stable region around 57.7 kPa. When comparing these results with the laboratory measurements an offset of 0.3 kPa can be seen (figure 4). When performing reference measurements using pentane, this effect was not visible. This shows that a small loss of volatile content happened during sampling. However, this offset was significantly lower than the reproducibility or even repeatability of ASTM D5191 and D6378, as indicated in figure 4.
This proofs an easy and direct comparison between the process and laboratory vapour pressure tester. The process monitoring of the vapour pressure during blending is capable of performing trustfully measurements without the need of ongoing sampling for laboratory measurement. Additionally the triple expansion of ASTM D6378 eliminates the influence caused by different air saturation levels of gasoline during the process measurements.
Vapour Pressure Testing of Crude Oil
The results of multiple V/L curves at different temperatures are displayed in figure 5. For simplicity, just 2 states are indicated in the line plots showing the correlation between vapour pressure and .temperature as well as vapour pressure and V/L ratio, respectively. Knowing the relation of V/L ratio, temperature and vapour pressure of different crudes is vital to judge the crudes behavior during transportation and storage at different conditions. When blending crudes of high viscosity with e.g. condensates for transportation the combined vapour pressure can be easily measured at the desired conditions.
The vapour pressure of the measured (dead) sample crude at standard conditions (V/L = 4,
T = 37.8°C) was approximately 40 kPa. Considering the V/L ratio found in a tank increases the vapour pressure by a factor of approximately 2.5. Adding bright sunlight (T = 60 °C) into the equation increases the vapour pressure by a factor of 3 or more. Dealing with light crude oil containing high amounts of dissolved volatile hydrocarbons will increase the vapour pressure
even further.
"Mini Methods" for vapour pressure testing like ASTM D5191, D6378 and D6377 are ideal to reflect current regulatory changes and safety concerns during transport and storage of petroleum products. For the first time the methods required by authorities, as well as the methods available for process (and laboratory) instruments are the same, allowing an easy comparison between laboratory and online measurements. This reduces the need for manual control measurements and allows higher automation for processes where vapour pressure is a key parameter.

Documentary on Mayans explores hidden secrets of the ancient civilization
A new documentary about the Mayan people reveals an ancient landing pad for UFOs and explosive new evidence of human-alien contact, according to its producers.
The Hollywood Reporter reveals that Revelations of the Mayans 2012 and Beyond will explore the hidden secrets of the Mayan people, including an unbelievable city built entirely underwater.
"It is the most important archaeological finding in the history of mankind," says producer Raul Julia-Levy, son of late Hollywood star Raul Julia. "It's going to open the eyes of humanity and elevate the consciousness of every human being on the planet. I guarantee it."
Shooting on the doc is set to begin in February, deep in the darkest jungles of Mexico. Julia-Levy says the picture will be shot in 3D and will, for the first time, feature footage of "a city that was built under water, and not a sunken city."
The doc will reportedly also reveal a 3,000 year-old tarmac for spaceships as well as "the mother of all secrets" which will be unveiled at the Calakmul archaeological dig.

The W.I are serving Bacon Butties (£3.50 with drink) at the Dry Drayton Village Hall on Saturday 1st July from 10.30.a.m. so please come along and enjoy. There will be a Sweetie Tombola for the children.
It's Open Garden Weekend at Caldecote Sat 1 / Sun 2 July – sixteen open gardens, details at http://www.caldecotechurch.org.uk/caldecote-open-gardens/
It's also weekend one of Cambridge Open Studios: https://www.camopenstudios.co.uk/
On Tuesday 4th July, the annual Feast Week Fun Run and walk starts in Dry Drayton at 6.30pm. There will be a barbecue and Lord Conrad's brewery will be at the school field serving the local brew from 6.45pm – the first of several 'pop up pub' events. The Black Horse Steering Group will also be there, sporting their "Save The Black Horse" t-shirts. Entry form for the run/walk page 10 of the July Dry Drayton Village Newsletter.
3. SAVE THE BLACK HORSE – Meeting Thursday 6 July, 8 pm, Dry Drayton School.
From The Black Horse Steering Group
Dear All,
Thanks to all who completed our survey. To date we have over 190 responses, well above what we hoped to receive. The response to our statement "Many pubs in the UK have been lost over recent years. We should save the Black Horse" was overwhelmingly positive at 95%. Response to other questions was equally encouraging of the BHSG's efforts. The comments you added are also much appreciated. We'll give you the full results of the survey at the public meeting on 6th July.
Following the closure of the Black Horse Pub in Dry Drayton late last year, a group of enthusiastic individuals has formed the Black Horse Steering Group (BHSG) with the aim of saving what is the last remaining pub that used to be one of five others in the village. The aim is to buy the Grade II listed building which has operated as a pub since 1780, renovate it and install a suitable tenant to run it as part of a community based Social Enterprise. The initiative from the BHSG has already met with widespread approval from a variety of organisations such as the Plunkett Foundation, Pub is the Hub, CAMRA and local breweries. It is intended that the community owned venture serves the need of Dry Drayton above and beyond that traditionally offered by a "pub" and will potentially include a café, small store for essentials etc.
Awareness and feedback
Thus far the BHSG has organised various activities to raise awareness for the cause including presence at the recent Beer Festival in Cambridge. In order that a rejuvenated Black Horse can serve the local villages and communities effectively, we would encourage everyone from surrounding villages to take part in our survey and subscribe to our newsletter which can be accessed from our website http://www.savetheblackhorse.co.uk/survey/
Investment Opportunities
A Public Meeting will be held in Dry Drayton at the School Hall or adjacent marquee on Thursday 6th July 2017 at 8.00pm where the business plan for the pub will be presented along with details of very attractive opportunities for the people of local villages and communities to make investments or loans into the Social Enterprise. The BHSG would like to encourage anyone interested in such investments to attend the Public Meeting or register their interest through the website or email details shown below.
Non- Financial Contributors
You can certainly help by becoming a Black Horse Customer.
In addition to very helpful and informative meetings with the Plunkett Foundation and Pub is the Hub we have met up with some of the Steering Committee in Harlton who have been giving us the benefit of their experience. We were pleased to hear that they have just reached their target to purchase the Hare and Hounds. Harlton is half the size of Dry Drayton.
If you have further ideas for the pub, would like to help or have any other questions or thoughts please email us at firstname.lastname@example.com
Please help us to serve local villages and communities and save the Black Horse. All welcome at the Public Meeting on Thursday 6th July at 8pm.
Yours sincerely, The Black Horse Steering Group (Adrian Bennetton, Andrew Henderson, Ash Bavalia, Ed Fleming, James Adams, Judith Bennetton, Liz Callis, Rob Lunn and Robbie Hawkes) http://www.savetheblackhorse.co.uk Twitter/Facebook: @SaveBlackHorse firstname.lastname@example.com

Ingnet join a consultant-led approach at Addisons Auctioneers
In recent years, our regular customers will have noticed that we have been adding more and more specialist events to our auction calendar, including the popular Vintage Fashion and Furniture, Garden and Sporting sales. Specialist sections have also been introduced to the fortnightly Antiques and Interiors sales in order to showcase rising numbers of themed items such as high-quality jewellery, vintage clothing and militaria.
To accommodate this trend, we have decided to introduce a more consultant-led approach to our services that not only encourages existing staff to further develop specific areas of expertise but also uses more of our specialist contacts. This will give clients increased access to some of the top antiques experts in the region whilst at the same time continuing to provide the efficient and personal service for which the saleroom has become known.
Richard Edwards, who was previously a specialist with Sotheby's and Doyle New York before moving to Addisons in 2003, will be taking on a consultancy role within the business with particular responsibility for the quarterly Fine Art and Antiques Catalogue sales. These sales have a reputation for showcasing an extensive range of high-quality items and attract strong global audiences.
Auctioneer William McNab will concentrate on the fortnightly general sales that regularly attract up to 800-900 lots, assisted by Marella Darvill who will also continue to develop the Vintage auctions. Simon Nixon will focus on growing the sporting sales, which cover shooting, fishing and other country sports.
Henrietta Graham one of the North's leading antiques and fine arts experts who has previously worked for both Sotheby's and Bonhams will carry on with her existing role in the business sourcing and cataloguing a wide range of lots and representing Addisons at specialist valuation days. Paul Ing, a well-known specialist in Arts & Crafts furniture and decorative arts, including Yorkshire oak by craftsmen such as Robert `Mouseman` Thompson, will provide expertise for all sales in this popular area.

A hit-and-miss oral history of the "youthquake" year, from a predominantly British perspective.
Former Sunday Times Magazine editor in chief Morgan and Leve (It Could Be Worse, You Could Be Me, 2010) show how the advent of the birth control pill, the ascent of youth-oriented designers and models and photographers, the sex scandals that rocked the British government (but barely registered in the States), and the general feeling that life as well as youth were short were all integral elements of this seismic shift. Maintains Andrew Loog Oldham, former manager of the Rolling Stones, "It wasn't the Beatles and it wasn't the Rolling Stones, it was Vidal Sassoon, it was Mary Quant, David Bailey, the models, they were the start of it." All are represented here, along with musicians who have covered this period more colorfully in their own books (Keith Richards, Bill Wyman, Eric Clapton) and a smattering of Americans, including journalists Robert Christgau and Gay Talese, both of whom could undoubtedly write books on the topic with greater depth and insight. "If I write my book, if it will be about anything, it will be about the Beatles and the Stones and the Supremes in '64," says Christgau, referencing the year that much of what is detailed in this book had more impact in America. He also testifies to his part in the sexual revolution: "I was having sex at least every two weeks throughout that entire period." The authors mostly disappear from the text after proclaiming that "[i]n just one year, the landscape of our lives, loves and looks changed forever." However, there's no indication of when these interviews took place, whether they were all for this specific book or why these particular people were selected (Stevie Nicks in a book about 1963?).
Whatever the nuggets of interest, this reads like an endless magazine article in need of editorial shaping and some kind of organizing principle.

Have you been told by a creditor that your debt is about to "charge-off"? Did the bill collector make it sound like you will be ruined financially if you allow this catastrophe to happen? If you're behind your bills, unable to keep up with payments on your credit cards and other debts, sooner or later you will hear a credit representative represent you with the dreaded "charge-off." So what is a charge-off anyway? Should you be worried? What are the consequences of this mysterious event?
I'll start by explaining what a charge-off is NOT. Because the term includes the word "charge," many people mistakenly think it has to do with cancellation of the account by the creditor. In other words, you can not "charge" anything on your credit card anymore. But it's not the same thing at all, and most banks will revoke charging privileges around 2-3 months before the deadline we're talking about here.
What banks and bill collectors call a "charge-off" is the point at which the creditor writes off the account balance as a "bad debt." It usually happens after six months of non-payment. After that, they no longer count it on their books as an asset. You still owe the money, of course. And they will certainly make continued requests to collect it from you. But the creditor has been forced by the rules of accounting to zero out the debt on their financial ledgers. For causing this loss, they will penalize you by placing a derogatory mark on your credit report. A "charge-off" is a serious negative mark, to be sure, but it is not the financial ruin that debt collectors would like to have you believe it is.
Should charge-offs be avoided if possible? Certainly. Does the prospect of a charge-off mean you need panic if you have no way to pay the bill? No! Is it the end of the world if the account has already charged off? No! Too often, bill collectors make a charge-off sound so bad, and they apply so much pressure, that people cave in and make payment commitments that they can not keep. Collectors usually demand payment via post-dated checks, and this frequently leads to bounced checks and even worse financial problems. Most of us are brainwashed by the banks and media on the subject of credit. Sure, good credit is important. But committing to payments you really can not afford just to reserve your credit is like watering the lawn while your house is burning down.
Here are a few simple rules to follow when trying to avoid a charge-off that has not happened yet:
* Do not be intimidated or threatened by pre-charge-off collection tactics. Keep a cool head and do not take it personally when collectors try to get under your skin.
* Call your creditor to find out the minimum payment necessary to avoid the charge-off, and subsequent payments to keep the account current going forward. Do not commit to this payment (or series of payments) unless you're sure you can follow through.
* Negotiate a lump-sum settlement at 50% or less if you have the resources, or a workout plan for monthly payments that you can live with.
* Do not allow bill collectors to talk you into using post-dated checks, or providing your checking account details over the telephone. Instead, make payments via cashier's check or money order.
* Do not make payments based on a verbal arrangement. Get the deal in writing and signed by a creditor representative who has authority to approve the exercise plan.
What should you do if you simply do not have the money to rescue the account from charge-off, or if the account has already been charged off by the creditor?
* Take a deep breath and relax; The sky will not fall on your head just because you had a charge-off.
* Realize that you still have an opportunity to resolve the matter by dealing with the original creditor or the collection agency assigned to the account.
* Negotiate a lump-sum settlement with the creditor or collection agency. Again, aim for 50% or less, and ask for the charge-off to be deleted from your credit report as a condition of the settlement. (Most creditors will not agree to this, but it's worth asking anyway. Do be sure that they will update your credit report to show that the matter has been resolved and the account has been satisfied.)
* If you can not work out a deal with the collection agency assigned to your account, then wait until it goes to another agency! Occasionally, it will either be assigned or sold to an outfit that you can deal with to get the matter cleared up.
To sum up, a charge-off is not the end of the world. It should certainly be avoided if possible, but not at the risk of making things worse by committing to payments you're not sure you can keep up with. Just remember that the creditor does not want to see a charge-off any more than you do, so use that knowledge to your advantage in working out a mutually acceptable arrangement. Get everything in writing, do not discern your checking account details, and follow up to make sure the credit reports the matter correctly on your credit report. You'll find that it's easier than you think to resolve a charge-off situation before it happens, or clean it up if it's already taken place.

The past couple of years, I found myself setting the same resolutions which I'm glad to say were all partially achieved or not, so I thought I'd mix it up this year. I saw this Resolution Generator (two years ago) and thought I'd choose 13 random goals for the year. Fight.
This was the first one that I got and though at first I didn't think I needed to imagine anything more, I realized I'm actually pretty stumped for creativity right now and a lot of what I do or think is restricted by me doubting the feasibility and possibility of it all. But then I realized, if eight years ago, I didn't think I'd make it to London in 2012, it probably wouldn't have happened. So here's to imagining up more crazy things.
Contrary to popular belief, I do like listening to others. I'll try to be better at it this year. And I'll try to listen more to people I'm not too fond off. I tend to close off when I'm not talking to my favorite people, but that's just mean, so I should be nicer and listen to everyone regardless of what I think of them.
My friend, Lou tells me that I overthink everything and am too uptight and just generally too stiff. Though I tried loosening up last year with #landian2012, something tells me I can lighten up a little more about everything. As much as taking things seriously is a hobby, I know there are some things I can just chillax with.
I was pretty bad with this this year and though we do live in a tropical country, my skin is terrible these days thanks to a whole gamut of reasons but it's no excuse to not take care of it. So yes, let's go dig up the bottles and jars gathering dust (I exaggerate) on the counter. I'm already aging, I might as well help myself.
So not really jump rope. I was thinking this was more suggesting a physical activity and since I failed at that in 2012, I'm really going to try to be better at this this year. I was thinking of doing yoga. Seriously and I already have the mat anyway, so I might as well just do it. I'll start with once a week because realistically, even this will be hard. But I'll try. I really will.
More like resuscitate the bank. Yes I was successful in traveling last year but it really drained the account. So as much as I'd like to do more of it, I think this year calls for rehabilitation of funds. Eating out? Sure, but not too often. Gadgets? We'll have to see. Cab money? NO NO NO. More than anything, this probably drained me most. Let's suck it with the MRT again.
I wasn't as religious about it this year. And that addiction to Mountain Dew didn't help. I don't want to let go of my soda all together (I might go nuts), but I'll try to cut down more and drink more water. Now that I think of it, this is probably the hardest task.
I have a terrible posture and find that my back always hurts and my stomach is totally pouched out because of the terrible core I own. So perhaps some of the yoga will help but I'll need to consciously think I have a rod up my ass (which won't help the lighten up bit) just so I can have less aches and pains. This one sounds impossible.
The four alarms I set don't really wake me up, but maybe I'll need to sleep earlier to wake up earlier, so this sounds like a lifestyle change, which will be difficult but we can try. I like getting to work early anyway so I shall try not to snooze too much.
I had a really good weekend, meeting up with high school and college friends and I was just telling them that I can't stand only seeing them on their birthday (if ever) and on Christmas (or after it). So I'm going to try and up the socialization quota for the year to more than twice. I was thinking every quarter. If I need to calendar this shiz, then I better.
I miss LJ. And though I wasn't totally absent last year, I miss catching up with the flist. I'm not going to pressure myself too much on this, but I like this scheduled spontaneity that I established in the last quarter of the year. No pressure entries and just really rambling about life again. Let's do this.
No, there isn't anyone to tell this to, but I'll take this as, "don't put your walls way too up." What's the worst that could happen? Rejection? We can deal with that. So here's to taking more chances even if it all blows up in your face anyway. Regrets are for suckers.
Which brings me to being more positive. I'm a terribly negative person (despite the sunshine and roses this LJ emits) so i'm really going to try my hardest to look at the positive things and be more +++ about everything. Let's hope 2013 proves to be a positive in the grand scheme of things.
And though I'm totally late to this, if you have time, could you fill it out? It closes on the 8th and it's on Dreamwidth (the girl hosting on LJ moved it) so it would be nice if I saw you. And link me to yours if ever!

Yep... big news!
I signed a contract with the US based label Dot Time Records!
Dot-Time Records is a new Jazz and World music label. The label releases feature exciting viruoso artists, both established and newley discovered from around the globe. The branding of the label can be found in the creativity, artistry, passion and energy of these artists.
The contract is for my new yiddish album, on wich new songs of Michael Felsenbaum and new compositions of myself will appear.
For me it's very exiting to have a international (worldwide) label, who presents my CD. And I'm very proud to be amongst such great other musicians and artists.
My new yiddish CD was recorded in april. It was about time to make a new CD, but I'm very aware of the fact that a creative product conducts itself.
When I met Michael Felsenbaum and when he started to write beautiful lyric yiddish songs for me, I knew it was about time to think about a new CD. Later, much later, encouraged by my good friend and guitarplayer Reinout Vrijhoef I also decided that it was about time to record some songs of my own.
My new CD is about longing and friendship. Written by my dear friend Michael and recorded with wonderful musicians, whom also are good friends. I'm blessed. That's for sure.
This week, the artwork for the CD and booklet (also made by a wonderful designer and good friend) are ready for printing and next week the 'master' will be send to the CD factory.
Good times, exiting times..!

Written by Student Assistant Sofia Huerta '15
SantaClaraBroncos.com (SCB) had time to catch up with Breezy Bernard (BB), a junior on the softball team. Bernard is second on the team in hitting and plans to finish strong gearing towards the end of the season. She talks about her season so far, the team's mentality and how having the new softball field changes the teams mentality.
SCB: How would you evaluate your team's season so far?
BB: This year has definitely been a season of growth. We have a young, athletic, driven team this year and that has really made the difference in our play. Although our record may not show it, our team has proven so many people wrong this year and we have competed against some really tough teams. I couldn't be more proud of all of us.
SCB: As season is approaching towards the end, what is the team's mentality?
BB: Right now we are just focusing on finishing strong. We have fought all year long and worked hard to get to where we are, so now we just need to close the season on a positive note. Going into this weekend against USD, we really need to continue competing. I think we can have a great chance of surprising some people this weekend.
SCB: What has been your favorite game so far?
BB: We have had some amazing games this year; I really don't think I could choose one. I can say though that last weekend against LMU was a great weekend for our team. Sweeping LMU in the three game series was awesome for us. It was a complete team effort and is something we will always remember.
SCB: Are you happy with the year you've been having individually?
BB: I have grown this year as both a catcher and a hitter. Coming off my sophomore season I wasn't performing as well as I knew I could, so this year was about laying it all out there and taking the mental aspect out of the game. Fortunately, softball is a team sport, and I know the girls always have my back even when I'm not having the best day.
SCB: Tell us something we don't know about the softball team.
BB: Our team is absolutely crazy in every aspect. We find a way to have fun in any situation we are put in. Also, most of us are terrible swimmers.
SCB: How has having your own field on campus changed your team's season?
BB: Having our own field is amazing. Playing on our own turf really makes a difference mentally and gives us an upper hand that we didn't have before. The field is still progressing, but we are just so happy that we can play at home and get support from both students and administrators.

Lawrence (Kansas)
There is no denying the overwhelming wealth of history Lawrence has to offer. The history of Lawrence dates back to 1855, when the newly-founded town was caught in between the North and South during the Civil War. Tensions were high between the new settlement, which was intent on remaining a Free State, and the state of Missouri, which was pro-slavery. Lawrence sustained Quantrill's Raid, numerous fires, and guerilla attacks, but always rebuilt and kept fighting.
Lawrence is rich in history, full of quirks and charms, and overflowing with arts, culture, academia, sports, and music. Many unique characteristics draw people from all over the world visit, learn, and live here. Lawrence is a blend of casual Midwest kindness and proud, liberal tendencies. The streets running north and south are named after the states in the order they were admitted into the union, and it takes no time at all to remember which are which. Massachusetts Street was selected to be the main drag as a nod to the original settlers that came from Massachusetts. Today, Mass St. is line with boutiques, bistros, bookstores, coffee shops, restaurants and live music venues. Friday night sees the street abuzz with students, visiting parents, families and basketball fanatics. Take Saturday afternoon to walk up and down both sides of the street-stopping for lunch and then dinner, of course.
The University of Kansas is known for it's beautiful campus on the hill that not only includes academic buildings, but also the Museum of Natural History and the Spencer Art Museum. If you're lucky, you can score tickets to see the legendary Jayhawks basketball team play in Allen Fieldhouse, the loudest college basketball arena in the country. If you are a basketball fan, or just want to experience what a game in historic Allen Fieldhouse is like, you cannot pass up the opportunity. Don't forget to check out the Booth Family Hall of Athletics and the original rules of basketball in the DeBruce Center, which is attached to the fieldhouse.
If you go to Google Maps and zoom in as far as you can, you will find yourself in Lawrence, Kansas, because the co-inventor of Google Maps was born here. His childhood home is the center of Google Earth, and the people of Lawrence tote this as just one of many lovable quirks this town has to offer.

Segregation is known as the physical separation of the people based on their social custom and ethnicity. This is historically applied on Mexican Americans and African Americas. The racial attitudes which support the segregation have arrived in the state of Texas with slavery and peculiar institution.
The Expansion of Anglo-Americans
Even Anglo-Americans started to extend their segregation to Americans and Mexicans past the Texas Revolution. At the end of the Civil War, the segregation has developed into a group control. For minority groups, it has existed in residential districts, churches, schools, and public places like barber shops, theaters and restaurants. At the late year in the nineteenth century, segregation has flourished lawfully in places with black population. Most of the cities and towns have Mexican quarter and Negro quarter.
Somehow, the Hispanics are segregated although they are blended with the whites and they looked whites. They have their cheap reputation because they are known as kept laborers. They are not valued and they are trusted in helping people win on the war in opposition to the Italians.
Due to the reason that they are segregated, the social roles, faiths, customs, atmosphere, and society of the Hispanic students are affected. There is a cultural gap between the financial status, habits, surroundings, lifestyle the between the Hispanic students and American students.
As a result, the Hispanic students are performing academically poorer. There are also programs that worked well only on the progress of the Whites and not for Hispanics. Students are segregated into group that results to oppressed classes. Hispanics are placed in the lowest level of strata. The underlying policy of the school was seen as Afro-Americans and Hispanic are classified into one group.
Segregation Among the Hispanic Population
Based on the new research, it was clearly shown that Hispanics that are being segregated from the whites have declined. The analysis showed that there is a decline in the segregation for different Hispanic groups, but not with Mexicans.
Mexicans are known to be a huge force in the Southwest and California. They predominantly established their own generations and attracted more of them. The concentration even leads to a deeper and more segregation. It was also noted that there is a lower rate on Mexicans becoming immigrants. Almost third of the five point four million Mexican immigrants are eligible on citizenship. Not only Mexicans, but Central Americans and Dominicans are living in highly-segregated places.
Dominicans also suffered from intense segregation but, so far, they have moved a bit. According to the recent research, there is a sense of difficulty on reaching to Hispanics as a solid and homogenous group. This is an issue which influences the politics of the country. With the republican senator that represent the state of Florida, Marco Rubio, is known to appeal to many Hispanics. Cubans are very different from Hispanics with their high income.
According to the report, it shows that Hispanics are living in the neighborhoods are less educated and are poorer residents. Mexicans are educated less and are known to suffer from high poverty and low incomes. Panamanians and South Americans are the most educated. Puerto Ricans, South Americans and Cubans are earning more than the average as compared to other Hispanics. Central Americans and Dominicans are earning less and suffer from extreme poverty rates.

The costs of U.S. President Donald Trump's trade strategy are no longer theoretical. During the 2016 presidential campaign, economists warned that Trump's aggressive approach—threats to abandon the United States' formal commitments and introduce new trade barriers—would alienate key U.S. partners. Now, the escalating dispute over Canadian and British subsidies of Bombardier, the multi-billion dollar aerospace company with operations on both sides of the Atlantic, is turning the possibility of a trade war into a reality.
In late September, the U.S. Department of Commerce issued a preliminary finding against Bombardier. The investigation found that the company benefits unfairly from the subsidies it receives from Canada and the United Kingdom. These subsidies allow it to sell its jets in the United States at artificially low prices. Under U.S. statutes, such behavior constitutes "dumping," which means that certain Bombardier imports could be subject to duties totaling almost 210 percent. To put that number in perspective, the current U.S. trade-weighted average tariff is two percent for industrial imports.
The decision against Bombardier evoked harsh replies. Referring to Boeing, the firm that initiated the investigation, Canadian Prime Minster Justin Trudeau stated that he "won't do business with a company that's busy trying to sue us." Moreover, both Trudeau and British Prime Minister Theresa May threatened to cancel pending orders for new Boeing military aircraft.
The White House claims that it is reasonable to defend U.S. economic interests with targeted trade remedies. Trump asserts that American firms suffer from discriminatory policies abroad—including foreign government subsidies like those paid to Bombardier. In the past, the U.S. government has often increased duties when it believes that foreign subsidies provide competitors an unfair advantage. In fact, the United States is one of the world's most frequent users of anti-dumping and countervailing duties. But Trump is taking things a step further. His solution to any act of protectionism is to respond in kind. Most recently, he raised the

UWA scientists have explained the photochromic behaviour of the pink diamond in an attempt to uncover why they possess their pink colouration.
Published in the journal, Diamond and Related Materials, the paper shows that the photochromic behaviour of the pink diamond can be explained by 'competing photoionisation processes at multiple defect centres in response to an applied optical pump'.
Lead author and PhD student Keal Byrne says the team focused on why diamonds change colour under light.
"We have pumped these diamonds with various wavelengths of light and measured the response in both time and absorption intensity," Mr Byrne says.
"What we've seen is that the diamond colour—the amount of absorption that gives it the pink colour—is dependent on both the wavelength and intensity of the light, and what that is consistent with is a model of electron transfer between the unknown pink defect and other defects in the lattice," he says.
This research has shown the defect centres responsible for many diamond colours, do not explain how pink diamonds get their colour.
"Colouration in diamonds is due to crystalline defects in the crystal lattice, which are also known as colour centres as they induce colour," Mr Byrne says.
"The colour centre responsible for pink colouration is unknown."
The team investigated photochromism, modelling the pink diamond photochromic process as 'an optically-driven electronic transition between two (or more) separate defect trap states, one of which acts as a ground state for the 390nm and 550nm absorption bands'.
The paper identifies that the pink coloration arises from 'absorption bands centred at 550nm and 390nm. The depth of these bands can be reduced (the diamond can be 'bleached') under ultraviolet illumination of the diamond and can be restored with longer-wavelength light'.
"Defects introduce energy level transitions into this band gap that absorb invisible frequencies," Mr Byrne says.
"So we're trying to work out what these new energy levels are that are unique to the pink diamond and by that way we can work out what properties it has and what use it might have."
Mr Byrne says he is still interested in furthering this research to discover why this pink colouration exists and where it comes from.
"I'm happy that we've managed to describe its behaviour, but some big questions still exist and hopefully we can answer them," he says.

Gooch, D., Hulme, C., Nash, H. M & Snowling, MJ. (2014). Comorbidities in preschool children at family risk of dyslexia. Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry,55(3), 237-246. United Kingdom: Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Ltd. Retrieved from https://doi.org/10.1111/jcpp.12139
Background: Comorbidity among developmental disorders such as dyslexia, language impairment, attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder and developmental coordination disorder is common. This study explores comorbid weaknesses in preschool children at family risk of dyslexia with and without language impairment and considers the role that comorbidity plays in determining children's outcomes. Method: The preschool attention, executive function and motor skills of 112 children at family risk for dyslexia, 29 of whom also met criteria for language impairment, were assessed at ages 3½ and 4½ years. The performance of these children was compared to the performance of children with language impairment and typically developing controls. Results: Weaknesses in attention, executive function and motor skills were associated with language impairment rather than family risk status. Individual differences in language and executive function are strongly related during the preschool period, and preschool motor skills predicted unique variance (4%) in early reading skills over and above children's language ability. Conclusion: Comorbidity between developmental disorders can be observed in the preschool years: children with language impairment have significant and persistent weaknesses in motor skills and executive function compared to those without language impairment. Children's early language and motor skills are predictors of children's later reading skills.

A couple thoughts.
1. Sammy Watkins made a couple of beautiful blocks, otherwise not a lot of action. Makes sense, in hindsight. Inexperienced QB who has been around knows that traps are laid around the most talented receiver. Probably take a few weeks before opportunities arise away from TE, RB, and slot.
2. Darby has good hands for a CB. Way better than Gilmore (who could be elite if he could catch, dropping three picks today.) that said, Luck under threw his man by ten yards on that interception. The ball does weird floaty things on the visitor sideline at the Ralph.
3. Mario Butler subbed for an injured Darby, got picked on, and was outstanding.
4. Luck is outstanding under pressure, but the rush wasn't getting there consistently in the second half, and the Colts line ain't allthat good.
5. Karlos Williams reminds me of Steven Jackson. He doesn't have Fred Jackson's vision and patience. Bryce Brown didn't dress. I am still frustrated.
6. Taylor is a super smooth runner, a lot like Fred. That said, he has a quarterback's musculature and treating him like a running back five times a game will bite them in the ass at some point. Escaping is great. Intrntionally sending himouttherealone is an unnecessary risk.
7. It was good to see Nigel Bradham yell at Preston Brown for being an idiot with a super obvious late hit on Luck in the fourth quarter.
8. I fear that Ryan and Roman might have a little of the Jauronian tendency to site a second half lead and hope it stands up to the slow burn.

RBI raises interest rate by 50 bps
The RBI has also revised its fiscal-end inflation projection to 7 per cent from 6 per cent earlier.
With today`s increase of 0.50 per cent, the short-term lending (repo) rate has been hiked to 8 per cent and the short-term borrowing (reverse repo) rate has also been increased by a similar margin to 7 per cent.
It, however, has retained the cash reserve ratio (CRR) at 6 per cent.
"Notwithstanding signs of moderation, inflationary pressures are clearly very strong… inflation continues to be the dominant macroeconomic concern. On the basis of this assessment, it has been decided to increase policy repo rate by 50 basis points from 7.5 to 8 per cent with immediate effect," RBI Governor D Subbarao said while announcing the quarterly review of the monetary policy.
This is the 11th time since March, 2010, that the RBI has raised the interest rate to check inflation, which is currently ruling at over 9 per cent.
The RBI`s unexpected decision led to a sharp decline of over 300 points in the BSE Sensex. The 30-share Sensex fell to 18,570 after announcement of the policy, although it had opened in positive terrain. .

Sony Mobile Communications
At Sony Mobile we believe listening to feedback from our users is key in creating great experiences – so we're starting to look at ways of building this more tangibly into our business and process design, with the simple aim of ensuring our products and services are as good as they possibly can be.
As part of this, we're launching a new initiative in Sweden to give 500 Xperia Z3 users the chance to try Sony's Concept for Android – a concept operating system with a fresh take on our user experience based on Android 5.1, Lollipop. It has some significant differences compared to our current commercial releases, with a stripped back, vanilla Android look and feel, with native Sony features and apps we find most popular amongst our users.
It's a chance for us to listen and act upon bug reports, opinions and experiences, so we can acquire feedback to improve the experiences based on what you like and what you don't
This trial will help us assess the potential of running wider Android operating system concept initiatives for more markets, devices and users in the future – as we look to shift towards a model that allows for the creation of experiences with real user input, whilst adopting more transparent and open workflows. We believe this will eventually enable us to respond to your needs quicker and easier.
If you're an Xperia Z3 user based in Sweden and want to get involved, check out the Xperia Lounge application to read full details, terms and conditions and register. But, hurry! As the initiative is limited to 500 places, users will be selected on a first come, first serve basis – successful applicants will be notified over the coming weeks.

Ethernet is a popular way to connect sites in an existing Ethernet-based LAN service. Ethernet has essentially replaced DSL for low cost and versatility. It can be utilized by residences and businesses of all sizes. While DSL lines have always been shared, Ethernet transmissions can be shared (repeated) or dedicated through switches, packet technologies, and other protocols.
Ethernet lines originally stemmed out of coaxial cables, but technology has allowed Ethernet cables to adapt and change to accept more bandwidth than coaxial cables can supply. Now, we find even the largest companies utilizing Ethernet technologies to connect to their Wide Area Networks (WANs). Packet technologies are allowing WANs to be comprised entirely of inexpensive, widely installed Ethernet cables. Laying and burying thick, expensive new cables is now only a concern for data centers and prominent cloud servers.
Since Ethernet cables are not buried they can easily be upgraded to accept the latest packet technologies and even wireless transmissions. The latest cables are twisted pairs of wires that can not only accept higher transmission speeds, but can accept the latest packet technologies like Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS). This means that a business can have dedicated, secure data and voice transmissions though a shared Ethernet network, saving even more money. As technologies change, Ethernet cables can either accept them, or be replaced by cables that can accept them, at a minimal cost.
Many carriers have stopped offering T1 installations because they can offer the same bandwidth speeds through existing Ethernet lines, at a much lower cost. Ethernet service providers can pass their savings on to their customers, and growing competition will insure this. Businesses can now have dedicated Ethernet LANs, giving them the lowest price for bandwidth, accessibility, and adaptability for years to come.

Coordinator of Students for the Salish Sea
On Monday 16th, in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, 40+ volunteers gathered to pick up litter from Semiahmoo Spit. The weather was clear and warm for the beach clean up, organized by RE Sources and WWU's student club, Students for The Salish Sea. As we walked along the beach, we could see the city of White Rock, BC approximately four miles to the northeast of the tip of the spit.
The clean up was organized in solidarity with Friends of the San Juans, a grassroots conservation organization, who coordinated similar clean ups on San Juan, Lopez, Shaw, and Orcas Islands to show that the Islanders oppose the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion, which, if built, would increase tanker traffic transporting crude oil in BC waters sevenfold. Looking out into Semiahmoo Bay and the Straight of Georgia, we all felt a collective need to speak up for the voiceless; for the water, the orcas, and the salmon of The Salish Sea.
Check out this short video of the day.

Len Wiseman Is Directing New Sci-Fi Film Called 'Black Chapter'!!by Gumbercules9000 on Apr 23rd, 2014
Rebecca S., Here…
Director Len Wiseman (the terrible remake of 'Total Recall' and the 'Underworld' films) has signed on to direct the new sci-fi thriller Black Chapter. Wiseman came up with the original idea along with script-writer Zak Penn (X-Men: the Last Stand). The film is being co-produced and co-financed by Skydance Productions, Wiseman is also producing and financing via his production company Sketch Films.
Black Chapter is the story of an FBI agent drawn into a top secret military program where spies train in paranormal abilities. In an interview, Wiseman says, "Black Chapter is a science fiction story that draws from our own history. I've always been fascinated by the mysteries surrounding the CIA's astral projection program during its MK-ULTRA era. What if those experiments had actually worked? Would we even know?"
The idea sounds promising and could provide a great roll for Wiseman's wife, Underworld's paranormal, ass kicker herself, Kate Beckinsale. But seeing his previous work and Beckinsale's blank performances, I don't have too high of hopes for this. Your thoughts?

See The Reason Why Adams Adams Oshiomhole Is Planning To Sack Dogara
Adams Oshiomhole, national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), wants Yakubu Dogara removed as speaker of the house of representatives.
A source told TheCable that Oshiomhole has been meeting with party members, particularly lawmakers in the lower legislative chamber, in a bid to remove Dogara.
The source said the APC chairman intensified efforts to oust the speaker after news broke that he would seek re-election on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Some constituents of Dogara presented PDP nomination form to him on Thursday and urged him to leave the APC.
Dogara has not publicly announced his defection from the ruling party though he has not been participating in its activities.
He was absent at last month national executive committee meeting of the APC in Abuja.
During the Bauchi south senatorial district bye-election, the PDP won in Bogoro local government area of the state where the speaker hails from.
The nation's number four citizen told his supporters on Thursday that he was asked to beg for the ticket of APC.
After Senate President Bukola Saraki left the APC, Oshiomhole moved against him, asking him to either resign or be removed.
Another source told TheCable that the party appears divided over the move to remove the speaker.
"Ever since the news of Dogara's defection, Adams Oshiomhole has been meeting with representatives and top APC chieftains to see how they can impeach Dogara," the source said.
"But they are at an impasse now, because some of them are saying that there will be chaos if they attempt to impeach Saraki at the same time.
"We don't know what their final decision will be but they are not agreeing, and the party chairman seems to be the one who wants them gone, but the lawmakers believe that they do not have the required numbers to pull off such a feat."
Reacting to reports of Dogara's planned exit on Thursday, Yekini Nabena, acting spokesman of the APC, said the speaker's political future is bleak.
Simon Egbebulem, spokesman of Oshiomhole, neither answered calls nor replied a text message sent to him on the allegation.

To be updated with the latest in the beekeeping industry to can check out our apiculture latest news. On the other hand in case you are starting apiculture and would like to begin professional apiculture today download a copy of our beekeeping for beginners ebook.
Beekeeping can be a full time profession or a hobby that is simple. However, more often than not, what started as a hobby would become a profession. But you cannot only tell and determine yourself that you will begin to do beekeeping. You need to have sufficient knowledge and understanding on the subject that you are going to enter, before starting on any avocation or profession. Then it's about time to indulge yourself if you really have been putting off your curiosity about beekeeping for quite a long time. Bee farming may look simple; learning the fundamental beekeeping lessons can allow you to get off to a good start.
What does a beekeeper have to understand?
First, you should have interest that is total on beekeeping to begin at the right foot. You should have consented to share your house space. There are possible risks in beekeeping that can harm you but your family too. If you decide to allow the bees inside your living space, then you certainly must know equipment and the supplies you will use for beekeeping. Your focus is not just to make money by selling honey; a great beekeeper should have a keen interest and fire in rearing bees.
An apiarist ought to know the right place for the beehives. The place must have adequate sources of nectar for the bees to get. You have to make sure beekeeping is enabled in your town if you decide to put your beehives at your backyard. There are several places confined to beekeeping; you need to get permission concerning this.
Beekeepers must understand whether beekeeping supplies are offered in the place where the beehives are situated. When you need to attend a nearby beekeeping shop you may never know; it is best that a nearby beekeeping store is reachable.
Equipment and protective tools may also be important for beekeepers to know. Beekeepers are prone to bee stings; the correct ensemble must be worn during beekeeping sessions. Understand the right kind of suit to select to keep you from any potential danger in beekeeping.
If you are not able to harvest honey all the efforts that are beekeeping would be ineffective. A beekeeper ought to know the approaches in collecting the honey from your comb; beeswax is also part of the yields in beekeeping.
