Bo'ness land sale
IME Property is delighted to confirm the sale of 0.71 acres of land to the housing developer Springfield Properties for an undisclosed sum.
Land where once a Royal British Legion building stood on the outskirts of Bo'ness has been sold by IME Property to the award winning housing developer, Springfield Properties plc.
The Elgin-based firm has acquired the site on Cadzow Avenue in a six-figure sum deal for close to the asking price of offers over £200,000. The land was sold with the benefit of planning consent for 30 units.
"Springfield are experienced house builders and their product will be a welcome addition to Bo'ness," said IME Property's managing director, Iain Mercer.
"It was also pleasing to conclude this transaction in a tight timescale leading up to Christmas," he added.

The jalapeño pepper is a small pepper that packs a big punch. The average jalapeño is about 2 inches long and has a vibrant green colour when ripe. The skin is thick and leathery, and the inside contains tiny yellow seeds, which are the heart of this little pepper's heat. Jalapeños are one of the most popular chiles grown in Mexico and a common pepper found in salsas and other Mexican dishes. For some people, the powerful spice of the jalapeño is too much to handle, or they cannot find a fresh jalapeño locally; therefore, they need a substitute.
Serrano Pepper
The Serrano chile is a milder substitute for the jalapeño. The walls of this chile are thinner than the jalapeño and therefore easier to digest in fresh salsas or sauces. You can serve it raw, and it does not require prior steaming or charring for recipes.
Fresh Cayenne Chile
The cayenne chile pepper, also known as a finger chile, is popular in Cajun culture. Unlike the dried powder, fresh cayenne chile peppers pack a lot of heat and are listed as a four on the heat scale, which is hotter than a jalapeño. Green cayenne peppers are common during the summer season and deep red cayenne peppers are more abundant during the fall. No matter the colour, the pepper will pack more heat than a traditional jalapeño.
The poblano pepper is the bell pepper of Mexican cuisine. This pepper is wide and deep; therefore, chefs often stuff it with items such as cream cheese, grated cheddar or rice. A poblano is mild in flavour and registers as a one on the heat scale. A fresh poblano is deep green and has a heart-shaped body and very waxy skin. It is best to char or grill a poblano before stuffing because of its thick skin.
Anaheim Chile
The Anaheim chile is most commonly used in chiles rellenos. This chile pepper is mild in flavour and chefs often serve it raw or cooked in a variety of recipes. Anaheim chiles can be substituted for jalapeño peppers in sauces, casseroles, salsa, soups and purées.
Fresno Pepper
Many Spanish recipes call for the use of jalapeños in salsa. If you cannot find fresh jalapeños locally, seek out a Fresno pepper instead. These small, red and waxy peppers are similar to jalapeños on the heat scale, but the hottest varieties are common during the fall season. The wall of the Fresno pepper is thinner than a jalapeño's wall; therefore, you can dice it thicker in salsa recipes.
The habanero chile has fruity undertones, but is extremely hot in flavour. In fact, the habanero is one of the hottest chile peppers a consumer can purchase. The hottest varieties are common in the summer and are up to 2 inches long with bright orange skin. To reduce some of the heat of a habanero, remove the seeds and ribs of the inside of the pepper --- but be aware that even the skin is extremely fiery.

The Ohio Renaissance Festival returns for its 27th season.
"I've heard the things they say," says Cheryl
Bucholtz, vice-president of marketing for the Ohio Renaissance Festival.
You can hear the frustration in her voice as she recounts some of the
mockery she's heard over the years.
"They say we're like a flea market, that we're just a
bunch of weirdos dressed up like . . . well, I hate to tell you how
rude some people are," says Bucholtz. "They just don't understand what
we do here."
Fortunately, there is no shortage of people who are
huge fans of the Ohio Renaissance Festival, which opens its 27th season
Sept. 3. Bucholtz estimates that more than 4 million people have
attended the annual eight-weekend extravaganza since it made its first
appearance in Harveysburg, Ohio, in 1990.
The goal of the Festival is simple—to recreate 16th century England.
Is it a historically accurate recreation? Not
really. If you want that, you'll probably have to hop a flight to
England, where there are several living history museums that recreate
the minutiae of everyday life in a time that hasn't existed for more
than 500 years.
"What we're offering is escapism," says Bucholtz.
"You come out here and you can leave the modern world behind. With the
election coming up, this fall will be brutal for everyone. You come out
here for a day and you won't have to deal with any of that. We're like a
time-traveling adventure."
There's an element of fantasy mixed in, too, as if
Princess Bride had suddenly come to life in rural southwest Ohio. There
are some aspects of steampunk, too. And yes, an attempt at historical
There are two schools of thought about how accurate
gatherings like this should be. Some people prefer the English approach.
But for all their historical accuracy, those sorts of events tend to be
dry and rather subdued.
Then there are the gatherings like the ORF, which
takes place on 30 acres located about a half mile from the eastern edge
of Caesar's Creek State Park. There is some history, though you
shouldn't take an exam based on what you learn there. Wander around for a
while and you may bump into Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth I. Or Sir Water
Raleigh. Or Sir Francis Drake. (Remember him? The first Englishman to
circumnavigate the globe in a single expedition?)
But what's most important at this gathering is the entertainment: rowdy, very physical and sometimes a tad bawdy.
"We are similar to Kings Island in what we are
offering," says David Smith, ORF's director of entertainment. "Except
that we're much more interactive and we engage people one-on-one."
Modern Medieval Times
It wasn't long ago that there was speculation that the Ohio Renaissance Festival might not be long for this world.
In January 2015, Peter Carroll, the founder of the
festival who is approaching 90 years old, sold the Festival and 144
acres of adjacent land, a total of 287 acres, to a trio of Dayton-area
developers. That same trio created Caesar Creek Properties to oversee a
planned housing development next to the Festival site.
Some saw the idea of the commercial development as
sacrilege. But Carroll himself already had a plan to develop some of
that land, with the first phase being 28 homes next to the Festival
Thus far, though, the developers have shown no
inclination to dismantle the Festival, which, by all reports, is
something of a cash cow. In fact, they have stepped in and made several
major improvements to the Festival infrastructure.
Last year, they created a new field for the jousting
and added a much-improved viewing stand. And this season, according to
Smith, they've added flush toilets.
"I know—that sounds amazing, right," says Smith, who
came to the Festival as a staff-swinging Robin Hood 20 years ago.
"We've always been a Port-o-Let-sort-of place. But the new ownership
listened to people's comments and that was a big one. So was the idea
for our new restaurant."
It's called the 1572 Roadhouse Bar-B-Q and it opened
June 17 during the Celtic Fest Ohio, which the new owners hope will
grow and become a staple of the Festival season. The menu is decidedly
21st century, filled with pulled pork, smoked sliced beef and grilled
chicken breast sandwiches, along with baby back ribs, tamales, peach and
blackberry cobblers and, of course, a broad selection of microbrewed
beers. It even has its own website at 1572roadhousebarbq.com.
And don't worry. There will still be plenty of
places where you can still purchase the trademark dish of every
Renaissance Festival—the turkey leg.
Entertaining the King
Smith recruits performers—up to 150 every year—from
all over the country. There are some performers who follow a national
circuit of Renaissance Faires and Festivals. Some are actors. There are
semi-pro wrestlers, too, and wranglers for the horses used in the
"I even have one performer who is a college
professor from Chicago," says Smith. "It's like a small city of people
here. And they all have skills in things that you just don't expect.
That's what makes it so fun, I think."
Auditions were held back in late June. Those who
were selected went through an intensive training process, working on
everything from hand-to-hand combat to improv, depending on what jobs
they'll be doing when the Festival begins.
There are bands of roving street performers. And musicians. And jesters.
"I think they're all great," says Smith. Asked to pick his favorites, though, he offers this handful of suggestions.
- "You have to see a full-armor joust," says Smith.
It turns out that the ORF is one of the few festivals that features
them. For one thing, they're expensive. Riders do occasionally get
injured. And the upkeep for their horses is pricey, as well. "But there
is nothing as exciting as a full, hard-hitting joust."
- "There's also nothing quite like The Mudde Show,"
he says. Three actors give trimmed-down versions of great works of
literature while performing in the Theatre in the Ground. Yes—they stand
in mud and share zany adaptations of stories like Beowulf and Dante's
- "If I were you, I wouldn't miss the Kamikaze
Fireflies," says Smith. "They do a little bit of everything," he says,
rattling off a list of specialties like fire-breathing, juggling,
balancing atop a tower of chairs, twirling, mass hula-hooping—you name
- "There are The Swordsmen," says Smith. "They are
an amazingly quick-witted pair of gentlemen who balance comedy and the
manly art of sword fighting." They don't drag out the swords until
they're on the stage. But when you meet them on the Festival grounds,
you may just get a lecture on the other manly arts, like the proper way
for a man to stand or how best to present yourself.
- "I'm a real big fan of the pirate comedy stunt
show," says Smith. "I especially like the human combat chess match."
It's exactly what it sounds like. A full chess set made up of human
beings, except that when one piece moves into another's square, they
fight for the space. Invigorating.

The Biggest Breakthrough Stars of 2012
List Rules Film, TV and/or musicians who had breakout careers in 2012.
The hottest breakthrough celebrities of 2012 include a wide variety of actors, actresses, musicians and TV stars who, for whatever reason, became all the rage during the year. Who do you think deserves the honor of biggest breakthrough celebrity of 2012? Time to vote! Be sure to vote down anyone listed here that you don't think really broke through in a major way this past year.
In some cases, an artist made this list because he or she hit it big with a breakout film performance. Examples of this include Quvenzhané Wallis ('Beasts of the Southern Wild'), Ezra Miller ('We Need to Talk About Kevin') or Suraj Sharma ('Life of Pi'). In other cases, the only reason a person is listed here is because he (or she) got super famous for oh, say, they starred in a certain TLC reality show and have the nickname Honey Boo Boo (just for the record, her real name is Alana Thompson).
Reality television stars aren't the only TV stars considered among the hottest breakthrough celebrities of 2012. It's hard to argue that Maisie Williams shouldn't be at or near the top of this list for her role as Arya Stark on HBO's 'Game of Thrones,' for example. Damian Lewis is phenomenal as Nicholas Brody on Showtime's 'Homeland' (he also won a 2012 Emmy for the role). And, with emphasis on the word "hottest," shouldn't 'Arrow' star Stephen Amell (Oliver Queen) also get some votes?If you know of a celebrity who had a huge breakout year in 2012, be sure to add them here.

What Our Students Are Saying
"If we are to serve effectively in a multi-faith, multicultural Australia and we need to understand the rich diversity that can be expressed by adherents of any one faith system. That's why I value CSIOF classes such as: Islam - History and Institutions, and Christian Ministry in Islamic Contexts. I highly recommend these, (and the other CSIOF subjects) for anyone who is committed to thoughtful and productive engagement. These subjects have helped me to avoid unhelpful stereotypes and given me, not only a heightened assurance in my own Christian faith, but the ability to confidently engage and minister to Muslims as individual people – right here in Victoria!"
"Studying with CSIOF has benefited me greatly both in the academic sphere, and in the sphere of practical ministry. I have deepened my knowledge of Islam, gained a better understanding of the close connections between the early Islamic history and various processes taking place in the contemporary Muslim world, and acquired important skills in bringing the Good News to Muslims."

From Autoblog
Source: Autoblog ( http://www.autoblog.com/2012/09/12/next-golf-r-sheds-lots-of-camo-still-looks-stealthy/ )We're waiting to see the genuine Mk VII Volkswagen Golf in the steel so that people can decide which side of the fence they're on regarding its design, but we're pretty sure the Golf R will, as usual, improve upon it. A prototype of the hot version of VW's hatch was spotted in a wild camo party dress a few weeks ago, and now the snappers at CarPix have caught it again without the camo and in basic black.
The adjustments we'd expect are there, in unfinished form, such as the larger intakes in front and quad pipes in back, and the cruise-control radar gets a prominent spot in the middle of the lower intake. The all-black low-profile routine certainly ups the stealth quotient, and perhaps it's just our eyes, but the five-door seen here doesn't look as intense as the outgoing model. We'll know for sure when we get a look at it at the Paris Motor Show later this month. In the meantime, there's a high-res gallery of spy shots to enjoy.

Hot Mulled Cider #1
Mixing instructions:
Dump cider, cinnamon sticks and a couple of teaspoons of nutmeg into a pot over very low heat. Slice oranges (after washing them well!!), and stick whole cloves into the rind, then float in cider as it warms. That's it. Drink when it gets warm. You can dump more cider into it up to a point when the spices get old - then just start again with a new set of spices, and a new orange.
How do I pour? What is 'cl', 'oz' and 'pt'? How should I handle glassware?.

This is a junior job for all of you that want to get started in KDE development and don't know what to do, kdesdk/poxml is a set of tools used to convert KDE xml-based documentation to po (translator friendly format) and back. They are still using Qt3Support, that is not bad per se, but is not good either.
Doing the port should be straightforward if you have some Qt experience and read the docs on porting form Qt3 to Qt4.
Of course i'll be there to help and review the final diff, so what are you waiting for?

According to the Canadian Government report on the terrorist threat to Canada, at least 60 "extremist travelers" who have returned to Canada after leaving to join what it refers to as "terrorist groups", are planning attacks at home.
The Free Beacon condenses some of the highlights of the report, which is linked above, and published the following:
The Canadian government is warning its citizens that it knows of at least 180 people who have traveled abroad to join terror groups and is tracking another 60 "extremist travelers who had returned to Canada," according to a new government report that provides further evidence of the Islamic State's migration to North America.
Terrorists returning to Canada after fighting abroad in hotspots such as Syria "raise serious security concerns," says the report, which warns that "a violent act of terrorism could occur in Canada."
Canadian authorities, like those in the United States, have continued to monitor a number of Western individuals who have traveled abroad to join terror groups. A number of these individuals have made their way back to North America, raising concerns that ISIS and its affiliates are planning attacks on the continent.
Canada's finding is similar to warnings by some current and former U.S. officials, who have said that ISIS affiliates are already living in America and other Western countries.

I don't often write these conversational pieces. Sometimes I do, but they're generally more informational. Recently, I was told (by my dear and loving mother) that I need to write these conversational/personal posts. I'd considered it before, but dismissed the idea quickly. I felt that I needed to write up more story-oriented, and much more serious posts. However, since I'm trying many new things, I decided to give these posts a try. Hopefully, I won't lose followers or push potential followers away due to my horrific grammar and spelling skills.
With all of that out of the way, I suppose I should actually write something worth reading, or rather, something I think is worth reading. Yes, that is my bulletproof confidence shining through. Today, I want to discuss music. Simple enough, right? Everyone should be able to relate to it and whatnot. Awesome.
I've been very "into music" for several years. I was musically awakened around the same time I started writing. Naturally, writing and music are intertwined for me. I find beauty in the story telling that occurs with lyrics or instruments. I see stories and themes unfold in pieces written in the Romantic era. I really do enjoy music from this era. Think Beethoven and Tchaikovsky, it's full of passion and thick sounds. I also see stories unfold in heavy metal songs or punk rock tunes. Sometimes the stories are told with lyrics and other times they are told by sway of the music and emotions it invokes. I love looking for some gorgeous string of notes hidden among the brutal complexity of a guitar riff. These gems are like the dainty raindrops bouncing off the window during a storm. Their melody glows, and add this realm of innocence to the burly clouds striking the world with lightening.
I could go on and mention a few bands I listen to or composers I like. This would be an embarrassing addition to my blog, since it would show everyone just how much of a "fan-boy" I am. I could also go on with examples of how much this song or these lyrics mean to me, but again, I would be showing the world how much of a fan boy I really am. Plus, if I listed either of things, this post would be unbearably long. So, to close out this first rambling, I think it's best to ask for forgiveness if you hate reading these conversational pieces. I will still post other, storyish writing! Don't leave. However, if you enjoy them, I plan on doing more, so follow along please.

I started a new job on Monday and my brain is so stuffed full of new information I physically haven't been able to write a blog since Sunday. But today is the day! I'm making an extra effort and finally getting something down on paper…well, screen. It's quite a small effort though, to be fair, because this is a bit of a throw back post.
Month: June 2015
Chorizo Chicken, Dukkah Sweet Potatoes, Buttered Spring Greens and Chimicurri Sauce.
It's another recipe folks! I know I've been posting a lot of recipes recently, but you seem to be enjoying them so I'm just going with the flow.
Roots and Fruits, Leeds.
Just a quick post about the lovely Roots and Fruits in Leeds. I'm starting a new job on Monday after a few months of unemployment, and having never worked in an office before, I desperately needed some 'work' clothes. So I went to Leeds with my wonderful Mum 🙂Read More »
Coffee Cream Bars.
Oh. My. God. I just discovered these slices of heaven yesterday and made them immediately. It was the best decision I have made all week. If you do nothing else this weekend, make these amazing coffee cream bars. This is literally one of the nicest desserts I have ever tasted, and get this – It's gluten free and vegan!! If you have read any of my recipe posts recently, you will know that I am attempting a paleo diet, but the cravings were really kicking in yesterday so I began trawling Pinterest for something to fill the hole. And boy did they!!!
Vang Vieng, Laos, January 2014.
I recently had a disagreement with a stranger on facebook. This isn't something I make a habit of, I'm definitely not one of those girls who airs her problems or fall outs on social media…in fact, I don't really have fall outs. Anyway, I follow a group that anonymously shares backpackers confessions. When I first started following a year or so ago, the confessions were funny and I could relate to a lot of them – stories about toilets with no flushes, showering in plain sight of a road, bad smells on sleeper buses etc. etc. But recently the stories have only been documenting the very, very seedy side of travelling.

Jake and I recently spent a really lovely day walking near Malham. For anyone who hasn't heard of Malham before, it's a beautiful little village in North Yorkshire. It's famous for the limestone pavement and Malham cove. We took a picnic and enjoyed a day of walking before spending the night in Harrogate. The weather started off pretty damn miserable, but as the day went on it got warmer and warmer until we arrived back in Malham to wonderful blue skies. I took a bucket load of photos so I thought I'd share some of them with you lovely folk. Read More »
Slow Cooker Chilli
My signature chilli has received so many 'Ooohs', 'Aahs', 'Mmms' and 'Oh my gods' that it really should have some awards to its name by now…if I do say so myself. This is a recipe I have guarded closely for years, I secretly wonder if it's the main reason Jake is marrying me. When it's cooking it fills the house with the most amazing smell, by the time it actually touches down on the table everyone is drooling with anticipation.Read More »

1) A lie is like a bead in a pearl necklace once the thread is unfastened, one falling bead will lead to the fall of others in the same way one lie will pave way to many lies.
2) A man's heart is like a puzzle, any woman can do it provided that she puts the right piece in the right place.
3) Women always fall in the love of their friends because they're always find what they're yearning for in a lover in that friend; never misspell their names, smile on their silly jokes, and tell them stories of his childhood.
4) Heart is a temple where the soul dwells so never tarnish it with hatred, grudge.
5) Muster your courage and tell the world you're in love, because once you sing that song you will hear it everywhere, the world is just waiting for someone to beat the drum for the song of love.
6) Never hesitate to confess your love, who knows you doing that in that timing to that person might save his life. The people who love us are that thin thread hanging us to life.
7) My heart have been sick for years but lately I can hear his beats, it's like he's reshuffling his cards with death to make a space for your love, I won't die today nor tomorrow.
8) Love and death play with the same rules, when it's time to the game to start, age, place, religion do not matter.
9) Why do we speak out our hatred while we just whisper our love?

Phil Rogers of the Chicago Tribune brings us the latest player that the Rays may be kicking the tires on. And this time, the Rays may be getting serious (via Twitter)…
Rays appear to be getting serious about Brewers' Corey Hart. TB has pitching to trade with Futures starter Jeremy Hellickson ready.
Some have interpreted that to mean the Rays are willing to trade Jeremy Hellickson for Corey Hart. We read the tweet differently. Rather we read that to mean the Rays are willing to trade a starting pitcher (Wade Davis?), because they have depth at that position.
Hart is a solid right-handed bat from the Brewers that would fit in nicely at DH for the Rays. 2010 marks his fourth full-season in the big leagues and he is off to a career-year, hitting .288-21-65 with a .349 OBP.

HVAC systems are so essential in the home, but often we don't think about them much at all until something goes wrong—and then we really realize just how much we need them and you have to call in someone like willardductcleaning.com to help you get it fixed.
There is nothing worse than your HVAC system breaking down in the middle of the summer or winter, and routine maintenance is often the best way to prevent this from happening. When it comes to DIY, there are some things that you can do on your own with HVAC systems, but sometimes you will need to call in the pros – someone like ac repair Gilbert AZ.
Routine Maintenance You Can Do Yourself
Some routine maintenance you can do yourself, and in fact it is a very good idea to do so because you can make some significant savings. For example, check the air filter once every one or two months for dust and dirt. Hold it up to the light, and if the light struggles to get through, it's time to replace it. The problem with air filters is that when they get clogged, they can really have an impact on the system's efficiency, so it is well worth checking your filters regularly. Check the Energy.com site for more details on DIY projects that can save you energy.
In addition, you may want to clean the condenser coils, add lubricant to the motor, and clean the evaporator, which are all jobs that you may be able to do on your own depending on your abilities.
When to Call the Professionals
One of the times when you should call a professional is simply to go over your system once a year. For your annual check, call out a service and maintenance professional who can check over the entire system so that you know everything is running smoothly. They will check the capacitors, the indoor and outdoor coils, the compressor, the level of refrigerant, and more, and they can fix any problems they find to keep your system in top condition. The ENERGY STAR website provides some more information on the thing stat a technician may check.
Other Technical Problems
There are other problems that are considered more technical, and for which you may want some extra help. If you notice that your fan keeps on running, the heat pump gets stuck in a mode, the system is making strange noises, the unit is not shutting off properly, the thermostat is playing up, or anything else where you do not understand the cause of the problem, it's best to call a professional.
Replacing the System
If you decide that you want to replace your system, this is not something that you will want to attempt on your own. If your system is 15 years old or more, it could well be worth replacing it, and a newer system can be more energy-efficient and therefore help you to cut your bills. This is not something you can learn on your own without years of experience, so a professional is needed.
Always Call An Expert If Unsure
DIY is great, especially when it can help you to make some significant savings. However, when something goes wrong with your HVAC system, always be realistic. Can you really fix it yourself? If you are unsure, always call a professional. If you are unsure about which professional to use, then you can always check out a company like AnytimeHVAC – HVAC in Alpharetta, GA. However, the decision is up to you and you need to make sure that you use a company that is close to where you live. It's a good idea to make sure that you use a professional though, as not only is it safer, but they may help to prevent you making the problem worse, which will cost you more money.

The process of developing our new brand the "Wolds Way Lavender Collection" needed the expertise of a professional photographer to show both the products and the lavender farm off to its best advantage. We think its fair to say that our website, the new tearoom and our new visitor brochure, have come alive through the pictures taken by David Chalmers Photography.
I can also add that it was an enlightening day in the studio watching an artist at work. We took along a selection of the products not really knowing what we would need. Here they are all lined up awaiting their turn to be photographed.
We discovered on the day that David is one of the few photographers in the country to have been commissioned to photograph the Crown Jewels. The picture below shows our products brushing with royalty with the very brush that he used to clean the Jewels of the nation!
And finally a selection of the pictures from around the farm now take pride of place within the tearoom! A gallery to David's artistic eye!
So to concluded; if you are looking for a product or location photographer we can sincerely recommend David. His contact details are

Positive Genetics: The Nature and Nurture of Wellbeing in Adolescence
Dr Claire Haworth's British Academy Postdoctoral Fellowship project.
British Academy Postdoctoral Fellowship
The award
Dr Claire Haworth's Postdoctoral Fellowship was awarded to invesigate 'positive genetics' - the genetic and environmental origins of human success, wellbeing and flourishing.
The project
Focusing on adolescent twins, Dr Haworth explored how nature (our genes) and nurture (our environmental experiences) create individual differences in mental wellbeing and whether this wellbeing can be improved.
Dr Haworth's research showed for the first time that genetic heritage is not a barrier to improving wellbeing, and that environmental factors can make a difference to all.
She was invited to present her research at the Department of Health, which lead to a collaboration looking to study how her research could be turned into policies that might improve mental health in the UK.

Consider POS Virus Protection from Comodo
A POS virus is different than traditional viruses because it is tailored to the point-of-sale system and traditional antivirus solutions can't help much. At Comodo, we believe that POS security is essential as part of any business plan, but we also know that most companies don't understand the differences between traditional and POS virus protection. Therefore, we make it easy to handle these situations because our product can thwart a POS virus, unlike many other commercial products on the market.
What We Do
Our product can help you by:
- Creating policies to prevent unauthorized software from running
- Detecting advanced malware and threats
- Providing device control
- Eliminating the need for other software
- Lowering your overall costs
- Helping you keep PCI DSS compliance
- Extending the life of the system
- Reducing your efforts
You need to have policies in place to prevent unauthorized software from being used. Our whitelisting capabilities allow you to do that. A whitelist just means that if it isn't on the list, it can't be opened or used, and it will be logged that an attempt was made and by who. This gives you more administrative control over employees.
However, the primary benefit of our product is that it detects advanced threats that other solutions can't handle. Most Anti-virus use signature-based detection, which can't lp with zero-day exploits and some other versions.
Device control is also important, because if employees insert thumb drives, iPods or CDs that have malicious code, you could get infected. You can prevent data leakage and the loading of malware, either unintentionally or intentionally.
Our product can also help extend the life of your system and keep costs lowered. Because you aren't using multiple software solutions and can keep everything together in one bundle, you'll save money. Contact us today for more information.

Adult TV Online on Pc- Adult Online TV Action for Peanuts
Which internet sex TV software is best for my computer
There is a wide selection of computer softwares that can be downloaded from the internet. Some of these softwares, besides featuring adult rated content and movies, also have a wide selection of other TV shows. The most respected online TV software is the PC 2007 Elite Edition. This software comes with over 3000 TV channels among them the adult TV stations from across the world.
The 2007 Elite Edition is respected for its high quality picture and sound. The biggest huddle with most online TV softwares is the quality of the picture. Most will have over 5,000 TV channels which include a respectable number of internet adult TV stations but will hardly have any legible transmission. It is therefore advisable to consider quality of any PC TV software when looking for a good internet TV software for your pc. The elite edition despite being a fraction higher in cost than the rest will at least deliver quality, and quality is good for adult TV stations on your pc.
Why watch adult TV on the internet from your PC
A lot of reasons come to mind when you consider why you need to watch all your adult TV movies, films, and shows from your computer. In most cases, getting absolute privacy when watching adult sex movies from the TV is an elusive luxury. If you have a young family and want to watch porn TV from your living room TV, then I wish you lots of luck.
You either have to wake up in the dead of the night when everyone else is sound a sleep or get a TV set installed in your bedroom for that. Both these options are expensive in terms of time and actual cost of paying for an extra room satellite TV installation.
What if you could watch your adult TV channels from your computer? This is simply the ultimate in terms of getting your privacy guaranteed. Nothing beats locking yourself up in your home office and watching world adult TV from over 100 channels.
The variety is simply astounding. You will get to watch adult TV stations from around the world including Chinese adult TV online, Russian adult TV online, German adult internet TV, French online adult TV and yes all the Asian kamasutra adult TV from the internet.
You may want to read more on how you can get yourself connected to one of these adult TV pc softwares that guarantee privacy in your home office. Follow the links to see reviews of one of the best pc TV softwares in the market.

"Holy talking fish on the walls!"
Flying Fish offers a relaxed lakefront atmosphere and simple, hearty fare.

It boasts the World's First Billy Bass Adoption Center and gives every customer that enters a free basket of catfish when they add their singing Billy Bass to the wall. Flying Fish has five locations in Texas, including Arlington, Fort Worth, Addison, Dallas, Garland, as well as in Little Rock, Ark., Memphis, Tenn., and Bentonville, Ark.
I mean, come on! Have you ever been to a restaurant with nothing but "Billy Bigmouth Bass" on the wall? The decor alone is hilarious. The fish... darn good too!

The Relative Regressivity of Seven Lottery Games
Date of this version
Document Type
Lotteries, tax incidence
We study the implicit tax incidence of raising state revenue through a monopoly state-run lottery using a new dataset on individual Minnesota lottery game sales by zip code. We use the bootstrap to compute SEs and construct confidence intervals for Suits Indices of seven lottery products. We conclude that the implicit tax on each product is regressive, and find statistically significant differences in regressivity between some products. Minnesota's newly introduced G3 instant scratch product, printed at time and place of purchase, is also the most regressive lottery game.

Arizona Matsuri
By Alessandra Luckey
Phoenix families came to Connect2STEM for their children to learn more about careers in science, technology, engineering, math and medicine.
This is the largest STEM event in the Phoenix area and was expected to host almost eight thousand people.
Allison Otu, with the University of Arizona, hopes the event will inspire children to consider a future career in the STEM field.
"So we are hoping that by this event it can be that switch that turned on in a young person's mind to say 'You know – bio-science – I'm kind of interested in that. I'm gonna learn more," Otu said.
Two of the more popular exhibits are the eye ball dissections and the physics bus where people can have their hands lit on fire.
Medical students from the University of Arizona taught children how to conduct an ultrasound and check a patient's blood pressure.
First year medical student Kelby Schaefller spent the day teaching children how to perform CPR. Schaefller didn't know she wanted to pursue a career in medicine until she worked at a hospital in Africa.
"It is so cool that there could be a kid out of this group that latter saves their grandpa or someone that they find on the street because the stuff that we have taught them," Schaefller said.
A new exhibit this year is the Da Vinci surgery system. People could control the machine and try to hook small hoops onto little spikes.
Whether 3 years old or 60 there is an activity everyone can participate in.

1) Sun damage:
Sun is one of the biggest threats to skin aging. Everyday when our skin exposed under sun, it will speed-up the process of aging. Over time, the sun's ultraviolet (UV) light damages the fibers in the skin called elastin. When these fibers break down, our skin begins to sag, stretch, and lose its ability to go back into place after stretching. Thus, it is important for every women to use sunscreen everyday to prevent premature aging, wrinkles, and age spots.
2) Dehydration:
Water is the life essence. According to scientific research, 60% of our body is made of water. It sustains our life as well as our skin appearance. Thus, it is strongly recommended to drink enough water everyday (2 litters) and not just when you are thirsty. Dehydration can lead to dry skin and make your skin looks prematurely old.
3) Pollutants & Daily chemicals:
Nowadays, the issue of air pollution, and daily chemical products are threatening our skin life. If you have oily skin, it is much easier to stick some pollutants on your skin. Thus, it is important to wash your face morning and night to avoid pollutants and bacteria build-up and excessive oiliness to promote a more youthful appearance. However, please avoid over cleansing, it may cause negative result.
4) Tiredness:
Tiredness is definitely a big threat to aging. As most doctors' suggestion, at least 7 hours of beauty rest a night to let skin restore, renew, and re-balance is crucial. It can eliminate all the possible dark circles, puffy eyes. Tired skin can make you look older.
5) Stress:
Pressure is a double-edge sword, it not only can boost your work efficiency, but also can boost your skin aging. Thus, it is important to learn to manage stress and take time to relax. Stress and decrease moisture and firmness and promote skin aging.

The drought remained "unchanged" in California over the past week despite rain in the southern part of the state.
"Across California and the Great Basin, drought remained unchanged as the region continued through its climatologically dry summer season," according to the U.S. Drought Monitor released Sept. 24.
The Drought Monitor intensity levels are Abnormally Dry, Moderate, Severe, Extreme and Exceptional Drought.
The report shows 92 percent of California in severe drought, 71 percent in extreme and 46 percent in exceptional drought.
"Some showers associated with the remnants of Hurricane Linda were noted along the coastal regions of southern California, though the totals (mostly less than 2 inches) were not sufficient to warrant any reductions to the Extreme (D3) to Exceptional (D4) Drought," the report noted.
In Nevada, 76 percent of the state is in severe drought, 37 percent is in extreme and 15 percent is in exceptional drought.
The U.S. Drought Monitor did indicate some slight changes in other parts of the Western U.S.
"The overall trend toward drought persistence continued, though pockets of beneficial rain were noted in the northern Rockies, Pacific Northwest, and lower Four Corners," according to the weekly update. "The west was generally cooler than normal, easing stress on pastures, crops, and livestock."
In the Pacific Northwest, "most of the region's core Extreme Drought (D3) areas were dry" with 100 percent of Oregon and Washington in moderate and severe drought. Extreme drought covers 67 percent of Oregon and 68 percent of Washington.
But unlike Southern California, rain in Washington state helped.
"Moderate to heavy rain on Washington's Olympic Peninsula (2-4 inches, locally more) staved off D3 [Extreme drought] expansion. Farther east, 1 to 3 inches of rain eased drought intensity and coverage over central and southern Idaho, though northern portions of the state remained dry."
The U.S. Seasonal Drought Outlook predicts some improvement in the drought for parts of California.
"Likely persistence for the broad area of drought in the northwest and much of California, with some development expected in concert with the favored dryness in the northern Rockies,"according to the report from the NOAA/NWS Climate Prediction Center.
"Along the central and southern California coast, and in a broad swath from the Southwest to the Southeast, abundant precipitation, especially later in the period, is expected to bring widespread improvement."

The signing of Roy Halladay in the off season last year was one of the hottest topics of Phillies baseball in a while. Ruben Amaro traded off a very capable Cliff Lee, even after Lee turned in a superior performance in the few months that he was on the team. The Halladay era started this season, and now it appears that he is on the doorstep of doing something that the Phillies haven't done since 1982. The Phillies haven't had a 20 game winner on the pitching staff since Steve Carlton did it way back in the early 80's.
Steve Carlton pitched 20 games or more winning seasons on 5 occasions for the Phillies. That feat will probably not be broken anytime soon. Here is a list of the most wins by a Phils pitcher in the last 5 seasons:
- 2009 – 12 wins -(tie) Moyer, Happ, Blanton
- 2008 – 16 wins – Moyer
- 2007 – 15 wins – Hamels
- 2006 – 12 wins – Myers
Let's take a moment to remember this date in history, Sept. 11th. The day changed America just like the bombing of Pearl Harbor did many years before the events that took place on September 11th, 2001. Let's pray for peace and remember those who lost their lives on that sunny morning in the World Trade Center in New York City now 9 years ago.

Top of the league in August, Ards arrived at Windsor Park on a run of three defeats in four matches. Just over ten minutes into the game, they were on their way to four defeats in five games as Linfield turned on the style.
Linfield were straight on the attack, Paul Smyth forcing Ards goalkeeper into a save from a header. Once again, Smyth was involved in most of Linfield's attacks. He wasn't the only one, forming an attacking trio with Ross Gaynor and Kirk Millar. When Linfield were attacking, at least one of them was involved.
A goal for Linfield wasn't long in coming, and it came on 7 minutes when a Paul Smyth cross wasn't properly cleared, it fell to Stephen Lowry who played a simple pass to the unmarked Aaron Burns, who fired home.
As soon as Burns got the ball, there was only going to be one outcome.
Within a minute, Burns thought he had made it 2-0 when he fired home from close range from a Paul Smyth cross, but the goal was disallowed for offside..
A quick free-kick set Paul Smyth free out wide, and his cross found Stephen Lowry, who fired home.
The last time Ards visited Windsor Park, Linfield blew a two goal lead to draw 3-3 in a game that let Cliftonville back into the title race in 2014. There was no danger of that happening today. There weren't even fifteen minutes on the clock, and the game was won for Linfield. The only question, was how many?
After that, Linfield eased off for a while. All Ards could offer was a speculative long-ranger shot. After easing off, Linfield stepped up a goal, with Stafford and Burns having attempts on goal.
It was only a matter of time before Linfield made it 3-0, and it came when Paul Smyth and Chris Casement toyed with Ards before setting up Kirk Millar to finish.
The waves of Linfield attacks continued, with Aaron Burns hitting the side netting from a wide angle after being played through, while Mark Stafford hit the woodwork from a corner.
Natuarally, the second-half wouldn't be as intense as the first-half, but Linfield still had chances, Paul Smyth having a weak shot saved in the opening minutes of the second-half.
Just after the hour, Linfield made it 4-0 when Ross Gaynor's cross was put into his own net by Emmett Frairs. If he didn't try to cut out the cross, Aaron Burns would have had an easy finish from a few yards out.
A start today was Burns reward for goals off the bench in his last two games, with Andrew Waterworth being dropped.
4-0 up, it was the perfect time to bring on Waterworth and Kris Bright. Waterworth forced Ards keeper into a save, but when the game is long won, the attacking intensity isn't the same.
Today marked the opening of the new bar at Windsor Park, in the corner of the South Stand and The Kop. My own impression was that it was underwhelming.
The thing that stood out, was no TV. When the old viewing lounge was there, I would pop in to check half-time scores in England and Scotland. I was hoping to go in today and watch the United match today. I doubt I was the only one thinking this.
It's quite a basic thing and not having it is going to turn people away from the bar long-term if they can't watch football on TV before the game, or have Soccer Saturday on while watching the match.
By the way, there is an excellent view of the game from the bar. Bit of a pity that you can't watch the game from the balcony though.
Next up for Linfield, is a domestic double header against (barring any recruitment activity in BT4) two former managers, with the Scottish Challenge Cup tie against Queen of the South.
I'm always nervous going into games against Glentoran, but even more so given their form and league position. I've been more confident going into games against them when they've been top of the league.
A repeat of today's performance, and we'll be fine.
Some curious stats around today's game, it was the third time in the last four home games that Linfield have scored four, and it was Linfield's fourth clean sheet in eight games.
Long may this continue at both ends of the pitch.
Upon return from Dumfries, is a League Cup tie away to Ballymena, a competition we're rarely still in come November. Would be nice to win it for the first time in, whisper it, eight years.
The League match against in-form Ballymena has been postponed due to the Challenge Cup, as has Crusaders match against out of sorts Glenavon. It's fair to say those postponements have worked in Linfield's favour.
The situation regarding postponements is one to keep an eye on. We're only one game behind and there's a date confirmed for it, Tuesday 18th October at Solitude. So it's not that bad.
It's been a good weekend for the club, with the Women's team winning the Irish Cup and the Swifts getting through to the Quarter-Final of the Steel and Sons Cup.
The way the calendar falls this year, the final will be on Christmas Eve, which is a lot more convenient to attend. Hopefully, they can get to the final this year.
You may or may not have seen it this week, but Linfield got an apology this week from the Belfast Telegraph for a story printed in July about Linfield fans causing trouble in Dublin.
Unsurprisingly, this turned out to be bullshit.
I remember seeing it on the news stand when it was published and instantly dismissed it.
That was on the front page. I'm led to believe this apology was on page six.
If you want to read it, you can find it here.
If you don't want to give them a hit, don't worry, here's a screenshot of it.
As you can see, it's a C minus of an apology, just about scraping the basic requirements, apologising for "any inconvenience suffered".
Obviously, "We were wrong", "We lied" or "It wasn't true" was too much of an inconvenience for them to publish.
The decline in standards at Belfast Telegraph in recent years can be addressed elsewhere. Possibly in a viral video. That's the only type of story they do these days. A few weeks ago, they did a story about a video of a baby farting "going viral".
Elsewhere, the corporate launch of Euro 2020 was this week. I know, Euro 2016 has already been consigned to history.
This tournament will have no host country but will take place all around Europe. An utterly farcical idea.
However, i'm a total hypocrite, and i'll be keeping an eye on the schedule, to try and see what games in Dublin or Glasgow I can try and get to.
And finally, i've launched a series this week looking at the Windsor Park redevelopment from start to finish. You can find a link to it here.
The next time Linfield play a match at Windsor Park, against Ballinamallard on October 15th, the redevelopment will be complete.
Hopefully, there'll be TVs in the bar by then.

Video Review
Discjunkie's Comments
This is an exclusive box set only available through the DavidLynch.com store. It looks very nice but could've been sturdier and overall better made. The paper sleeve around the case is thin but glossy.
Turning the box upside down will cause the disc to fall out of it's sleeve inside the case and rattle around. with this in mind it becomes difficult to transport or take with you. However, the overall artwork and the booklet looks very nice. In short; it's a box set that suffers technical problems rather then appearance issues.
I guess one would have hoped for some more diversaty when it comes to the extras. The main prize here is of course the Stories feturette. This is pretty simply put just a long black and white film of Lynch talking about his film infront of a simple microphone, mixed with some archive footage and still photos. All in all it's a very informative whatcha-call-it (documentary?) but it does tend to get a bit long even for a Lynch fan due to the monotone nature of the piece. Still, a pretty well deserved seven for this disc even if the subtitles are non-excistent and the audio is only 2.0.
The packaging incorrectly states the audio being in uncompressed PCM format.

These are the guides. Six to choose from.
choose wisely
Camino Francés
The original wise pilgrim guide and the longest in the series. At 500km (800 miles), the Camino Francés is among the longest routes to Santiago. For the last 1000 years it has also been the most popular.
San Salvador
A detour from the Francés, or a journey all of it's own.
Once upon a time the devout would break from the Camino Francés in Leon and turn north to Oviedo to visit the Camara Santa at the cathedral of San Salvador. Today you can do the same if you have a few extra weeks to spare.
Camino de Invierno
The Camino de Invierno, or Winter Route, is steadily becoming a viable alternative to the final stretch of the Camino Francés. It begins in Ponferrada and follows a more Southern approach to Santiago. In so doing the Camino de Invierno bypasses the snowier mountain passes in favor of a warmer climate. These days it is actually more popular during the summer, as accommodation along the way has yet to fully mature.
Camino Primitivo
Or as the locals call it, the knee wrecker.
This camino begins at San Salvador in Oviedo, the capital of Asturias. The going is tough but rewarding. It joins the Camino Francés near Melide before ending in Santiago de Compostela. Don't let the name scare you away.
Camino Aragonés
An alternate start to the Camino Francés
Not so much a camino of it's own, this route is an alternate beginning to the Camino Francés. It begins in the mountain pass of Somport to the Souttheast of St. Jean, and rejoins the French route near Puente la Reina.
Caminos to Finisterre and Muxía
Following in the footsteps of sun worshippers.
It is not uncommon to arrive in Santiago with an itch to keep moving. For those not quite done with their journey the road continues to Finisterre, and from there to Muxía. And from there back to Santiago.

Of the estimated 814 million citizens eligible to vote in India's general elections that began on April 7, some 150 million are first-time voters between the ages of 18 and 23. How they vote may well determine the results, scheduled to be announced May 16. But will a new government be able to fulfill the aspirations of India's young citizens?
India is experiencing a youth bulge. Nearly two-thirds of Indians are under 35; half are under 25. By 2020, India will be the youngest country in the world, with a median age of 29 years, compared with a median age of 37 years in China at that point. India's large youth population, often called a "demographic dividend," could potentially make India the biggest consumer market and the biggest labor force in the world.
India's youth came of age in the late 1990s and early 2000s during a period of relatively high economic growth, which put a television in the majority of Indian homes and made cellphones ubiquitous. Young Indians have grown up more connected to the world — beyond their village, their caste, their co-religionists or their income level — than any previous generation. They can see on their televisions how the rest of the world — and India's privileged classes — live.
Unfortunately, most do not have the remotest chance of acquiring the skills and education that would raise their living to those levels, even assuming enough jobs were created to employ them. India's education system is simply not delivering: A recent report from Pratham, a nonprofit education advocacy group, found that half of India's 7-year-olds cannot identify letters, and one in five 10-year-olds cannot read sentences. Manufacturing is not expected to generate enough jobs; a recent report indicates more people will be working in agriculture in India in 2019 than in 2012.
The new government will need to act quickly to demonstrate that it can do better than its predecessors. It will have to jump-start the faltering economy, provide access to affordable, improved education for boys and girls in all regions and help the private sector create tens, if not hundreds, of millions of decent-paying jobs. Unless it can do that, India's youthful demographic dividend could turn into a demographic liability.

Heads up information related to SCR/DEF on ISX15
I thought everyone might be interested in some information that I've found out about the ISX15 in the 2012 KWs, not sure if the following is true for other model trucks with this motor as I have only been talking to two people I know who have a 2012 KW T700.
Both friends have been having severe issues with their DEF/SCR system causing problems, including two or three derates each. They've spent the majority of this year so far in the shop.
My one friend finally got tired of the problem, drove it to his local dealer and told them "I'm not picking it back up until you can tell me why this keeps failing" and then called both corporate KW and Cummins to let them know what was wrong and get some help getting the problem fixed.
My other friend got in touch with a contact at the KW in Green Bay (should tell you who we're lease purchasing trucks from) and they have been working to resolve his issue.
Both kept getting DEF/SCR codes indicating the system needed cleaned.
One found out that the three heated supply lines to the system have an active recall on the parts, however his VIN has not been released in the recall campaigns (they've only released 2 of 3 sets of VINs) but he was assured his VIN will be in the last set of VINs.
The other found out his SCR Catalyst was bad and this is a known issue for this truck so much so the part has as many as 70 on back order. His small KW in Terre Haute told him they do about one replacement a month it's such a common issue. He was told however, this does not seem to be a recall issue, yet. He has been working with the regional service manager for his shop (I believe he covers IN, IL, WI, MI)
Both had work done on this system that was erroneously billed as non-warranty work so they are both having to try and get reimbursed for the funds they were charged.
I'm posting this to let anyone may be having similar, frequent, issues know which direction they may be able to point a shop in.
These systems should not fault out that often so if they keep doing it, there is an underlying issue. A few of the shops my buddy with the bad catalyst went to just followed their flow charts that told them to clean the system and sent him on his way. He broke down less than 48 hours later in one case of this happening (was the final straw). Also, if a component of this system fails during the power-train warranty, it should be covered by the warranty.
I'm not sure how they managed to figure it out, but my friend with the bad catalyst, the dealer was able to determine it was bad without any fault codes. This may be due to the fact that he get the regional service manager involved and he required they actually troubleshoot the issue not follow the flow charts they're required. I'm not sure and my friend didn't ask.
They've both lost a lot of revenue due to this system failing on them. Hopefully this info will help save other people some time and money if they're having the same problems or start to experience this system faulting/derating.
Is this a worthwhile discussion?
My 2013 isx15 is in the shop getting an in-frame at 475000 miles. The truck burnt a lot of oil and this ruins the dpf system. The service manager stated that this was one of the years prone to oil consumption due to poor piston/ring/liner design. Lots of shops over the last year have charged me for "regen's". But the problem was not so. If they tell you that a Regen is needed ask why before they start. The truck should always do regens without them charging you. There are several fuel treatments on the market that help the dpf function better. p.s. The Detroit motors aren't any better.
