This paper examines the dynamic properties of a two-stage flow control valve of the "Valvistor" brand. There are several benefits to this: the valve ha a high closed loop bandwidth, the design allows big flow capacities etc. An attractive feature of this two-stage valve is that the pilot flow contributes to the total flow giving higher steady state flow efficiency. This paper presents an analythical model of this particular type of valve. A simplified model with relevant approximations is also presented. Measurements on the valve were made to validate the valve model. The paper also includes a further discussion about the pros and cons of the valve in open and closed loop applications.
This thesis presents a solution enabling lower losses in hydraulic actuator systems. A mobile fluid power system often contains several different actuators supplied with a single load sensing pump. One of the main advantages is the need of only one system pump. This makes the fluid power system compact and cost-effective.
A hydraulic load often consists of two ports, e.g. motors and cylinders. Such loads have traditionally been controlled by a valve that controls these ports by one single control signal, namely the position of the spool in a control valve. In this kind of valve, the inlet (meter-in) and outlet (meter-out) orifices are mechanically connected. The mechanical connection makes the system robust and easy to control, at the same time as the system lacks flexibility. Some of the main drawbacks are
The fixed relation between the inlet and outlet orifices in most applications produce too much throttling at the outlet orifice under most operating conditions. This makes the system inefficient.
The flow directions are fixed for a given spool position; therefore, no energy recuperation and/or regeneration ability is available.
In this thesis a novel system idea enabling, for example, recuperation and regeneration is presented. Recuperation is when flow is taken from a tank, pressurized by external loads, and then fed back into the pump line. Regeneration is when either cylinder chambers (or motor ports) are connected to the pump line. Only one system pump is needed. Pressure compensated (load independent), bidirectional, poppet valves are proposed and utilized.
The novel system presented in this thesis needs only a position sensor on each compensator spool. This simple sensor is also suitable for identification of mode switches, e.g. between normal, differential and regenerative modes. Patent pending.
The balance of where to put the functionality (hardware and/or software) makes it possible to manoeuvre the system with maintained speed control in the case of sensor failure. The main reason is that the novel system does not need pressure transducers for flow determination. Some features of the novel system:
Mode switches The mode switches are accomplished without knowledge about the pressures in the system
Throttle losses With the new system approach, choice of control and measure signals, the throttle losses at the control valves are reduced
Smooth mode switches The system will switch to regenerative mode automatically in a smooth manner when possible
Use energy stored in the loads The load, e.g. a cylinder, is able to be used as a motor when possible, enabling the system to recuperate overrun loads
The system and its components are described together with the control algorithms that enable energy efficient operation. Measurements from a real application are also presented in the thesis.
This work deals with innovative energy efficient fluid power systems for mobile applications. The subjects taken up concern to what extent and how energy losses can be reduced in mobile working hydraulics systems. Various measures are available for increasing energy efficiency in these kinds of systems. Examples include:
Flow controlled systems The pump controller is switched from a load sensing toa displacement controlled one. The displacement is controlled in an open loopfashion directly from the operator's demand signals. This reduces energy consumptionat the same time as dynamic issues that are attached to LS systemscan be avoided.
Individual metering valve systems Flexibility is increased by removing the mechanicalcoupling between the meter-in and meter-out orifices in directionalvalves. An overview of this kind of system is given in the thesis. A designproposal that has been implemented is also presented. Initial test results areshown. Patents for this particular system have been applied for.
Displacement control Metering losses are reduced by removing the directional valves.One pump is used for each load in such systems. This hardware layout involvesconsiderable changes compared to conventional systems. Displacementcontrolled systems are not studied in this work.
In mobile applications, overall efficiency is often poor and losses are substantial. The measures listed above can help improve this significantly in such applications. A flow dividing system can decrease energy consumption by about 10% and an individual metering system by about 20%. Losses in pump controlled systems are difficult to give a figure for; the losses are rather attached to the pumps and motors and not to the system layout. However, the losses for these systems are presumably even lower than for individual metering systems. The main focus in this work is on individual metering systems but questions about which components and so on are also treated. For example, the Valvistor valve concept has been studied as part of this work.

Email Marketing Automation For ECommerce
With Easy-SMTP's email analytics, our customers can understand exactly how their clients respond and interact with their emails. This article is adapted from Email marketing: Think inside the new inbox," which originally appeared on Copyright © 2013 McKinsey & Company. It has a single and integrated marketing platform that engages customers and therefore increases sales. To avoid barking up the wrong tree, it's important to learn the difference between email marketing and marketing automation — and when to opt for one over the other. You'll be able to execute your email content marketing strategy in a way that saves you time, money and generates more revenue for your business! Live Chat, Feedbacks, Notifications, E-mail marketing & automation, analytical dashboard etc.
One way to build a bond with customers is to segment the email list into smaller groups so that people are only receiving content that is important to them. The term 'inbound marketing' is something that you'll likely hear about in tandem with marketing automation. Your email subscribers, though, they have other things to do. Do not write long paragraphs updating about how you just got a new office or are working on growing. General Assembly – Informative email campaign to spread awareness of events and bolster following.
Under its Basic plan, it allows 5 users to send emails up to 5000 contacts and cost Rs. 10,000 ($149.89) per month. You can use your newsletter to promote blog posts on your website as well as blog posts you contribute to other industry publications. Solutions for Growth is unique in providing a full program of email marketing services that you won't find with other marketing agencies. But there's so much more to email marketing than sending out a mass email blitz hoping something sticks. When comparing email marketing's future budget (Figure 57) and ROI for each sector (Figure 58), we see lots of missed opportunities. From a contact clicking a link in an email all the way to viewing a page on your blog, the sophisticated software touches your prospects at just the right time in the digital journey.
Marketers in the education sector claim that improving sales (21%) and generating leads (20%) are the greatest benefits of email marketing (Figure 11) with 64% saying they plan to increase their email marketing budget in 2016 (Figure 57). Some of the email marketing companies we tested offer flexible pricing plans that allow you to pay for email credits as you need them. Let's assume there is one admin for every ten client-facing employees in the agency. It customizes your thank you page to include a bonus" incentive for them to share on social media and email. A question that I continue to mull lately is about the definition of marketing automation. What he has found is the results of email marketing are more tangible and with better ROI if you are looking for leads or sales.
SparkPost can be used to send transactional emails, integrate big-data and personalized content and manage one-to-one marketing programs. Symbolically promote your Manager of Email Marketing to a title and job that's a more worthy fit, like Director of Essential Engagement. I would even say that culture (of permission mktg), along with transparency and relevancy are three core pillars for email success. Basecamp : Helps your team get more organized, a must-do for complicated content marketing campaigns.
I'm working with a non-profit that has very heavy email views on mobile, but not donation conversions. In general, companies have no reason to try and increase their open rates above the average for their industry – doing so sounds like it could be good for business, but it's so difficult that most companies will never see a return on their investment. According to Movable Ink's U.S. Consumer Device Preference Report: Q1 2014," 66 percent of brand marketing emails were opened on a mobile device (smartphones and tablets) during the first quarter. Unlike some of the overcomplicated all-in-one marketing cloud solutions, our Visual Journey Designer brings the power of marketing automation to our customers in a simple, easy-to-use way. At this frequency, companies enjoy a median open rate of 32.4% and median click rate of 6.5%. The marketing strategy that is employed by a retailer is related to the type of business. Use email polls and online surveys to find out what your subscribers really want.

Subscribe To Alex Trebek Shaved His Mustache Again, Here's Why Updates
I've already subscribed
For years, Alex Trebek was known as the heavily mustached host of Jeopardy!. Then in 2001, he decided to shave off his facial hair, instantly looking younger and more modern. The man kept the clean-shaven look for 13 years before popping back up with a mustache when Jeopardy premiered in September. It wasn't to last. Recently, Trebek gave in and resumed the clean look, cutting out the mustache. He says the Jeopardy audience was influential in the decision-making process.
"At the beginning of the season, we asked our audience to let us know whether I should keep it or shave it, and the people have spoken: I am now clean-shaven. One voter in particular is relieved by the outcome – my wife – though I always say I can grow it back whenever I want if I am feeling adventurous."
There are definitely pros and cons to sporting any sort of facial hair, and even more so for a person's partner, who has to constantly deal with the tickling and rough feeling of the facial hair on his or her skin. His wife has spoken and the audience has spoken, and Jeopardy's Tumblr just gave us a professional photo highlighting the before and after, seen above.
Now that we know what Trebek looks like once again, here's a look at how his mustache has evolved over the years. Here's how he looked early on in his Jeopardy career.
He later opted for a mustache as well as thick glasses, which totally transformed his face and began to make him look older in the 1990s.
By the time Ken Jennings was crushing records and making plenty of money on the show, Trebek had long since shaved his facial hair.
Here's Trebek at the start of this season. The mustache he opted for is a lot thinner than the one he sported in the good 'ol days, and we're not sure whether the choice was made for fashion purposes or out of necessity. Even though the audience voted to get rid of the mustache, it will be missed by some.
So, have we seen the last of Trebek's mustache? I'm sure his wife would say yes, but the Jeopardy! host does note that he could theoretically always grow the facial hair out again. Would you rather see the man with or without the mustache? Let us know your favorite look in the comments, below.

Easter Sunday in Brooklyn
I got around yesterday but not over to "Ch'uch" which I guess was just as well that I didn't because none of my clothing even comes close to the finery that families were styling all over the borough. I caught up with one of those families after making a painful dash in search of a B45 bus stop (resulting from another Atlantic Yards failure, which I will be raising the ruckus about soon) anyway once I was on the bus, and basic levels of oxygen returned to my mind I met the Vann family, fresh from Church full of the Eucharist Spirit and they were kind enough to pose for this picture.
Apparently sunday was also an unofficial day of 花見 meaning Hanami" which means "cherry blossom watching". Even though the official Hanami is a month away and the dense grove of cherry trees which produce near firework like bouquets were not in bloom there was still a lot of color to see.
(My apologies for this post being up without photos, I tried to blog it from a moving subway train on Manhattan Bridge, and it worked, but not so much.)

Nakhon Ratchasima, Thailand, August 3, 2013- USA booked a spot in the FIVB Girls' U18 World championship final for the first time after beating Brazil in an Epic five set semifinal 3-2 (16-25, 25-14, 20-25, 25-17, 15-12) at Chatchi Hall in Nakhon Ratchasima, Thailand on Saturday.
This is the best result for the winners, No 5 in the Youth and Junior world ranking in their tally of 8 participations till now. Their best performance was the 4th position in 2003 and 2005.
Brazil lost the chance of their 8th final and now they are playing for the bronze medal match.
With her 5 successful blocks Audriana Fitzmorris played a crucial role in USA win beside a tally 13 points scored throughout the matches making her as second scorer after USA's big gum Mikaela Foecke who scored 16 points.
Brazil's opposite spiker Lorenne Geraldo was her team machine of points as she contributed 22 points for her team.
The blockers beside the backline defence make the difference throughout the match as Brazil led in the first set due to these factors before again USA deployed their well known block of Fitzmorris to win the second set making the score 1-1.
Brazil regained the dominance in the third set through the extra ordinary performance of Lana Conceiç¦o and Lorenne, before USA blocked all the ways to win the fourth set and the tiebreak with a lot of exciting moments

Hello Blindkilla,
If you mean 2009, then activating Windows 7 with a product key number will stop it.
If you mean 2010, then only purchasing and installing the retail version will stop it.

Correct. By default, you have a 30 days trial before having to activate Windows 7, or Windows 7 goes into a reduced functionality mode on the 31st day.
If you have a free Windows Live ID or Hotmail account, then you can get a Windows 7 RC product key number for free directly from Microsoft at the link below. After you select the language and version of Windows 7 to download and fill out the form, you will get a product key number.

Windows 7 expiring
I acquired a computer running windows 7 beta 7100 copy. I was reading a few threads on the OS expiring on the first of July. Also that some the the tattletale signs of the OS expiring will be the water make at the bottom, and the sendfeed back link at the top. Well I do have the watermark at the bottom but I don't have the sendfeed back link at the top. I saw that there was a way to remove it throught the regedit.exe I checked in the reg and I do not see that fix made. I all so did not see any patch installed to remove that feature. Since that link is not there was was wondering if the "timenuke" from windows was disabled. can anyone help?

Hey there!
Our names are Chris and Stephanie and we created this blog to document our journey from consumerism suburbia to self-sufficient homesteading.
Both being born & raised in big cities (Chris- Indianapolis and Stephanie- L.A.) you wouldn't expect homesteading to be something close to our hearts. You'd expect us to thrive in big noisy cities filled with steel buildings, large crowds and food available at the swipe of a card…I mean doesn't that sound great? Actually the complete opposite. After tiring of only dreaming about a world in which we were living surrounded by nature, producing our own food and not contributing to the mass consumerism we decided to make it happen.
Chris took a job working remotely so we could leave Indiana and head out West, to North-Eastern Washington to be exact. There we will search for the perfect land to put our Permaculture and homesteading ideas into action. We've decided it would be a fun adventure to document and share with others. Follow us as we make our way from the suburbs of Indianapolis to our homestead dream across the country.
We will document our trials and error from picking out the perfect home, growing and producing our own food, creating a permaculture design and farm animals. We will also talk about our steps to create a natural & non-toxic home including personal care and you will definitely see a lot of primal/paleo posts as well!
Aside from our love of homesteading and self-sufficiency we are Paleo/Primal enthusiasts, introverts, nature lovers and a bit crunchy! We are also dog lovers and will be dragging our 1 1/2 year old boxer along for our adventures!

Forum discussion on international student recruitment and retention
Nadia Korobova (left), Upper Iowa University Assistant Vice President for International Education, and Ramila Verdiyeva, an EducationUSA advisor from Azerbaijan, were among the global education and government leaders to discuss international student recruitment and retention strategies at the recent EducationUSA Forum in Washington, D.C.
FAYETTE, Iowa (August 10, 2017) – Upper Iowa University (UIU) Assistant Vice President for International Education Nadia Korobova recently participated in the U.S. Department of State's eighth annual EducationUSA Forum in Washington, D.C. More than 570 U.S. university representatives from 46 states, 60 EducationUSA regional coordinators and advisers from around the world, and U.S. and foreign government officials convened during the event to discuss international student recruitment and retention strategies.
The Forum, organized in partnership with the Institute of International Education, featured sessions on traditional and virtual recruiting strategies, comprehensive campus internationalization, student visas, maximizing recruitment resources, and partnering with EducationUSA advising centers around the world to develop comprehensive and innovative strategies for recruiting international students.
"Rather than having to travel to dozens of countries, the Forum provided an opportunity for EducationUSA advisors from around the world to network together from one location," Korobova said. "I was able to personally communicate to individuals the top reasons for why their students should attend UIU. The most important insight I received was meeting with Eurasia EducationUSA tour advisors from Russia, Ukraine, Georgia, Armenia, and Azerbaijan. I will be traveling there in October as a part of a recruiting trip and the detailed information I received about the tour, students and cities will be critical to its success."
Upper Iowa University is among the colleges and universities playing an important role in strengthening ties between the United States and countries around the world.

Hosted by: The Misadventures of Super Librarian.
January 1, 2014 – December 31, 2014
That's right kiddies - we're doing it again! In another continuing bid into deluding myself that I'm actually making progress up the mountain, I will host a TBR Challenge for 2014.
What is the TBR Challenge? Simply put, it's where readers pick up a long neglected book from their TBR pile, read it, and comment on that read on the3rd Wednesday of every month. The idea is to read those long neglected books that you just had to get your hands on at the time, but have been languishing in your pile, all lost and forgotten.
Commentary on your chosen TBR read can happen anywhere online (your blog, Facebook, GoodReads, Twitter, a message board etc.) just provide me with a link when you sign-up so interested readers can follow all the challengers!
This is a voluntary challenge and I want this to be fun. Hey, life happens. If you have to skip a month, there will be no ridicule. Likewise, while there will be bragging rights for those that complete the challenge without skipping a single month - there is no pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
Since some readers like a little guidance, I will also be keeping with tradition and providing themes. These themes are totally voluntary. If you don't have anything in your TBR that fits, the theme doesn't appeal, or you just want to read something else - go for it! Again, this is meant to be a fun challenge.
Monthly Review Dates And Theme Suggestions
January 15 - We Love Short Shorts! (Short stories, Novellas, category romance)
February 19 - Series Catch-Up (pick a book from a series you're behind on)
March 19 - New-To-You Author (an author you've never read before)
April 16 - Contemporary romance
May 21 - More Than One (An author who has more than one book in your TBR pile)
June 18 - Romance Classics (classic book, classic author, classic trope/theme etc.)
July 16 - Lovely RITA (past RITA winners or nominees)
August 20 - Luscious Love Scenes (erotic romance, erotica, a "sensual" read - leave those "just kisses" books alone this month!)
September 17 - Recommended read (a book recommended to you by someone)
October 15 - Paranormal or romantic suspense
November 19 - Historical romance
December 17 - Holiday themes (Christmas, Thanksgiving, Valentine's Day, it's all good!)

This two-disc set features selections from concerts the Grateful Dead performed on February 23rd and 24th in Lake Tahoe in 1968.
The year 1968 was the year the Grateful Dead released their most psychedelic-sounding and experimental record, Anthem Of The Sun. They played all of the songs from that album during their three-night run at Kings Beach Bowl in Lake Tahoe, California, in February of that year. Selections from the second and third nights are included on this two-disc CD.
Anthem Of The Sun was the second studio release from the Grateful Dead, and the first to feature Mickey Hart on drums, and Tom Constanten on piano. Though it's a studio release, the band mixed in elements and snippets from live concert recordings to some of the songs, particularly "Alligator" and "Caution."
The audience at Kings Beach Bowl, however, had not yet heard that album, as it wouldn't be released until July of that year. And in fact, portions from these concerts would make their way onto Anthem Of The Sun.
"Viola Lee Blues"
The first disc begins with "Viola Lee Blues." This is the longest track on the entire CD, which is surprising considering this album includes "Dark Star," "Turn On Your Lovelight" and "That's It For The Other One." But this "Viola Lee Blues" clocks in at more than nineteen minutes.
Only two minutes in, the band is already getting a bit crazy. But this is basically a good steady rock jam - not stretching into any Weird territory yet. Nevertheless, it's one of those great 1960s intense rock jams. And Jerry Garcia does some impressive wailing on his guitar. There is a short drum solo in the middle.
"Viola Lee Blues" is a song included on the band's first studio album, and was written by Noah Lewis.
"Hurts Me Too"
"Hurts Me Too," better known as "It Hurts Me Too," is a blues tune written by Elmore James and sung by Ron "Pigpen" McKernan. It's a shame the vocals weren't raised a bit in the mix - for this song, as well as "Viola Lee Blues." Pigpen also plays harmonica on this one.
"Dark Star"
This "Dark Star" has the fast intro it had in those days. "Dark Star" was always an interesting song, but at this time it had all that extra percussion, which was wonderful. The tempo was quicker and the instrumentation was low-key. This version is pretty short, especially by "Dark Star" standards, at less than seven minutes.
"China Cat Sunflower"
"Dark Star" leads directly into "China Cat Sunflower," a song about an acid trip. This was in the days before "China Cat" led predictably into "I Know You Rider." This jam is when the band really starts to cook,and it leads right into a really good rendition of "The Eleven."
It's with "The Eleven" that the jam starts getting good and messy. "The Eleven" is a loud, raucous piece of music, driven by Phil Lesh's bass (he co-wrote the tune).
"Turn On Your Lovelight"
"The Eleven" leads into Pigpen's signature tune, "Turn On Your Lovelight." Though he didn't write it, Pigpen really made this song his own, breaking it down in the middle, riffing vocally, with the band answering him. This version has the band repeating, "Shine on me" and then "A little bit higher" while Pigpen improvises. Then the song begins to build again, and it's just fantastic. This is one of the highlights of this release.
"Born Cross-Eyed" Into "Spanish Jam"
"Born Cross-Eyed" is a short, yet intricate (and totally cool) song written by Bob Weir and included on Anthem Of The Sun. The version included here leads into "Spanish Jam," and it's then that the band heads into Weird territory. Combining rhythms and dissonance, exploring and improvising within a very loose structure - more of a feel or temperament than a formal construct. The Grateful Dead were skilled at making temporary homes within the Unknown, and that night they were on top of their game.
"Morning Dew"
The second disc begins with the always-moving "Morning Dew." Jerry Garcia always poured his heart into this one, and gave it his all, especially in the vocals. Listen to the emotion in his voice as he sings, "I thought I heard a baby cry this morning/I thought I heard a baby cry today/You didn't hear no baby cry this morning/You didn't hear no baby cry today." Is there a better song about the end of the world? In this version, there is anger as well as sadness in his voice as he repeats, "I guess it doesn't matter anyway."
"Morning Dew" was written by Bonnie Dobson, and was included on the Grateful Dead's first studio release.
"Good Morning Little School Girl"
Another song that Pigpen always shines on his "Good Morning Little School Girl," written by Sonny Boy Williamson. Pigpen was always more comfortable in the blues than in the rock, and this song really plays on his strengths. He also adds harmonica to this one.
He sings, "Good morning little schoolgirl, can I come home with you?/Tell your mama and your papa I'm a little schoolboy too." In the band's later years, Bob Weir sang this one. The older he got, the less likely it was that those lines would work on the girl's parents. But whatever, this is a great tune.
"That's It For The Other One"
"That's It For The Other One" is the full song, as it is featured on Anthem Of The Sun. Later on, it would be split into two songs - "Cryptical Envelopment" (Jerry's section) and "The Other One" (Bob's section), which was originally called "The Faster We Go The Rounder We Get." It's that section that contains the reference to Neal Cassady.
The rendition included here is excellent, and it leads into "New Potato Caboose" (which also follows it on the album). "New Potato Caboose" was written by Phil Lesh and Robert Petersen, and include some interesting lyrics: "When the windows all are broken/And your love's become a toothless crone/When the voices of the storm sound/Like a crowd/Winter morning breaks, you're all alone."
"Alligator" and "Caution"
Pigpen sang lead on two tracks from Anthem Of The Sun - "Alligator" and "Caution (Do Not Stop On Tracks)." Both of those songs are on the second disc of this release.
The first, "Alligator," is split, with "China Cat Sunflower" and "The Eleven" in the middle. These versions of "China Cat" and "The Eleven" are even better than those on the first disc, with a fantastic jam. As they go back into "Alligator," there is a wonderful percussion section.
The jam in "Caution" is just incredible, coming right out of "Alligator." And there is some great work on percussion in this one too. This song also has fun some call and response, with the band echoing Pigpen as he sings, "All you need."

A new study published in the British Medical Journal has suggested food fortified with vitamin D could reduce the risk of colds, flu and other respiratory conditions.
The researchers found daily or weekly supplements of vitamin D would mean 3.25 million fewer people having at least one respiratory infection a year.
In the US, milk is already fortified with vitamin D to help prevent bone disorders.
The NFU's chief dairy adviser, Sian Davies, said: "We agree with these initiatives to add value and new markets to milk through reformulation.
"Arla's Big Milk is fortified with vitamin A and D and they launched another last month with Asda – vitamin D enriched fresh milk.
"Milk is a healthy, natural product and we need to keep promoting it rather than quibbling about different farming systems.
"While the industry falls out over grazed or housed we are losing focus on telling the consumer about how great our product is. Let's focus our energies on supporting and enhancing the work of DairyUK, the Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board, Dairy Council and individual milk buyers on the overall goodness of dairy products."

In 1896, Luigi Fatti opened the doors of his tiny grocery store to do business with the citizens of a young Johannesburg. To cater for the many Italians in this roaring and hard-drinking community, the little shop sold specialities such as macaroni, olive oil and wines from Italy.
Ten years later, in 1906, Pietro and Giacomo Moni established Moni Brothers Limited, which catered to the rising demand for Italian beverages and delicacies. Business flourished so much so, that soon the Monis established an Italian Club, with a membership of 500 people.
In 1914, World War I began making the importation of goods impossible, persuading the Moni brothers that it was time to manufacture their own goods locally. In 1915 the Italian Warehouse Company was registered in Johannesburg, and the Monis installed their first machines at the back of their premises.
By 1917 Fatti's business had grown to such an extent that he had a staff of 31 people and rivalry between Luigi Fatti and the Moni brothers grew stronger until, 1925, a peace treaty was signed between the two families which resulted in the formation of the United Macaroni Factories.
In 1930, despite difficult times due to the Wall Street crash, the Monis opened their first wheat mill in Cape Town to safeguard the supply of their raw materials. By 1953, the Moni brothers secured the controlling Fatti interest in the business and in 1967 they built a large wheat mill and pasta complex in Isando.
In 1982, Tiger Oats took over the controlling interest and the United Macaroni Company became known as Fatti's & Moni's. Today Fatti's & Moni's is part of Tiger Food Brands Limited, South Africa 's largest food company, and continues to make the fine quality pasta that South Africans have always loved.

One of the goals that I set for 2017 is to read more. More being almost 4 times what I've done in previous years. On average I read about 5-6 books per year. This year the commitment is to read at least 20.
Six weeks in and the book count already stands at 4 with 3 others currently being read. Based on this it should not be too hard to hit the target by mid-summer.
Most of the books that I read are non-fiction, but every now and then I slip in the occasional legal thriller. Reading quickly is not my forte as I cannot skim and need to read most every word. But that does not stop me from reading more than one book at a time.
My reading patterns are fairly predictable. In the morning I read while on the train to work. The evening sees me read for 20-30 minutes before bed. Occasionally I will slip in some weekend reading or lunchtime reading during the week.
For those of you who are really into reading, I found a great site called GoodReads – check them out.
There is no shortage of material that I want to read. In fact, there are about 30-40 books waiting for me. You see I have always loved buying books with the intention of reading them, but have never made it a priority.
So now instead of sleeping on the train or playing video games on the weekends, I am investing a little more time into my reading. I know there are benefits to reading like increased vocabulary, better writing skills, etc.
And in case you are wondering I prefer a physical book over an e-book. I have both, but I like to turn real pages, feel it in my hands and take in the distinct smell of printed pages.

How can you design an outdoor kitchen? Or first, what is an outdoor kitchen? An outdoor kitchen can simply mean a grill, table and some chairs. Or it can mean a fully equipped kitchen complete with fancy seating. The size and style is completely up to the available space, and also your family's needs.
A good outdoor kitchen should be functional, welcoming and entertaining. It should be a place where the family can hang out together to cook and eat.
We have gathered here some of the best expert tips to help you design an outdoor kitchen.
Build your way up
Proper flooring will add durability and value to your kitchen, as well as complete the design.
Thus, the floor is the first element you should consider. Try to choose materials that meet safety criteria, stay away from flooring that may be too slippery or too rough, something that can endure food spills and grease.
Also consider the different weather changes year round in your area, as well as the weight of the appliances you will be installing.
Stone for example is an excellent choice, it is very durable and it adds a beautiful rustic look.
Measure everything
Deciding the size of your outdoor kitchen depends on several factors.
First, the size of the whole backyard, you do not want the kitchen to take up the whole space.
Second, the size of the appliances you want in the kitchen, and how many of them will you need? You need to leave space for the appliances, as well as sufficient space between them.
Experts' say that the most practical design in any given kitchen places the sink, cooktop (like the stove or grill) and food storage (like the refrigerator) in a triangle setting, with the legs of the triangle no less than 4 feet and no more than 9 feet.
Just as an indoor kitchen, having diverse work surfaces and various counter heights can allow for different functions within the outdoor kitchen. Just make sure the diversity flows naturally in the design.
Do not overlook the value of storage
Just because a kitchen is in the open air, it does not mean that you can overlook storage!
Storage is an integral part of any kitchen; it prevents clutter and also allows you to find everything you need within reach.
When you design an outdoor kitchen though, remember that any cabinets or storage units you add should be waterproof and durable to temperature changes.
Do not go overboard though and keep in mind how much storage you will actually need and really use for your kitchen.
Do you plan on using this kitchen only in one season when the weather permits or year round? Do you plan on hosting a lot of guests outdoors or is it just for family?
Carefully planning how you will use the space will help immensely with designing the space.
Keep the look coherent
Try to keep the overall look coherent, why not coordinate the floors, the cabinets and the countertops? Keep in mind also the beautiful backdrop of the garden, it provides you with a beautiful canvas on which to draw. So do not waste this canvas with a mismatched look.
Think of the outdoor kitchen as a place to cook, eat, relax and entertain.
This is a great opportunity to enjoy the outdoor weather while gathering around a nice meal. So, incorporate features that will help you make the best out of the kitchen.
Choose the furniture carefully, maybe a large table that you can use to entertain or as a buffet if you have many guests, and chairs that stack so you can store the extra ones when not in use.
If maintaining the view you have from inside the house to the outside is important to you, then place the outdoor kitchen to the side or at an angle that does not obstruct the view.
Choose quality appliances
While this may not be your primary kitchen you still need to buy the best kitchen appliances you can get. You need the appliances to be durable and stand up to different kinds of weather, and also to complement the look rather than ruin it.
For example stainless steel appliances would most probably stand all weather conditions, are extremely durable, and also require very low maintenance.
You do not have to go grand
You do not have to include all kitchen features when designing an outdoor kitchen if you have a limited space or a limited budget. Just include the most important aspects to you.
Consider what do you really need to include in your outdoor kitchen.
If you have limited space, just stick with the basics. Less can be more. Maybe just build a BBQ island, which offers a grill and countertops, you can even fit some high stools around the countertop for eating.
Stay close to the house
Keep your outdoor kitchen close to the house, even if you have a spacious backyard.
First, if you stay close to the house you will not have to carry heavy trays of food and supplies for a long distance. The best location would be between 15 and 20 feet from the indoor kitchen.
Second, it will cost less money to run utilities a shorter distance from the house. It will also be less of a hassle.
Moreover, you can extend an overhang from the house to create a nice large shade.
You have to be careful though, make sure that smoke from the grill or stove does not drift into the house. So try to find the general wind pattern in your garden and orient the appliances accordingly.

10 Psychological Tricks Everyone Needs To Know
1) Group Laughter
When you're in a group and laughter breaks out, people will instinctively look at the person they feel closest to in the group. This is a handy way of spotting secret liaisons…
2) It's All in The Feet
Watch people's feet. If they turn towards you when you speak, they're interested. If they stay in the same spot, they'd rather be left alone. If they turn to the opposite direction, they want to escape!
3) Don't Be the Middle Man
People only really member the first and last things that happen, the middle becomes more blurred. If you're competing for new business etc. Make sure you're the first or last person in there.
4) The Power of Silence
If someone doesn't give you the answer you're looking for, stay silent while keeping eye contact. It pressures them to keep talking and give you an answer closer to what you want.
5) The Mimic
Subtly mirroring a persons body language when you're talking to them makes them like you better and builds trust. Don't be too over the top however.
6) The Romantic
Plan a date that involves adrenaline – Horror Movies, Extreme Sports etc. It stimulates arousal in the brain and the person will associate that arousal with you.
7) Keep Your Enemies close…
If you know someone's going to try and have a go, especially in a meeting, sit right next to them. They'll feel less comfortable with aggression when you're that close.
8) The Favour
Ask people for small favours. It makes them like you and feel in control when they feel like you had to come to them for help for such a small thing.
9) The Name Game
Use someones name frequently while talking to them. It makes you remember it and they'll feel like they're being acknowledged and trust you more.
10) Make Them Warm To you
Don't shake someones hand if yours are cold, it makes you seem untrustworthy. Make sure they're nice and toasty and you'll come across as being a warm person.

The diversity of Latin American trade agreements established since the mid-1980s reflects a broadening range of strategic perceptions and orientations. The argument of this volume is that this increasing divergence among the arrangements reflects fundamental and growing differences among their broader strategic perceptions and political and economic objectives. These, in turn, are grounded in each country's economic profile, the institutional configuration of its trade policy process, and the constraints and opportunities policymakers perceive at the domestic and international levels.
The opening chapter in this volume provides a theoretical framework that highlights the political-economic tradeoffs entailed in different trade strategies. The remaining chapters in sections I and II focus on domestic and international constraints involved in the formulation, pursuit, and implementation of trade policies. The last half of the volume contains detailed, empirically grounded studies of Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Mexico, and the dynamics of Mercosur.
Vinod Aggarwal is professor of political science, affiliated professor of business and public policy in the Haas School of Business, and director of the Berkeley Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation Study Center at the University of California, Berkeley. Ralph H. Espach is a doctoral candidate in political science at the University of California, Berkeley. Joseph S. Tulchin is the director of the Latin America Program at the Woodrow Wilson Center.

Forrester outlines top tech trends – from now till 2018 February 7, 2013Posted by Mark Hillary in Current Affairs, Internet, IT Services, Outsourcing.

As decision-makers get blindsided about how and when to use emerging technologies, Forrester analyst Bryan Hopkins recently provided some helpful insight into what's next in his blog.
Grouped in four major blocks, he outlined the top 15 major trends in tech that will be shaking up business models over the next five years.
It is easy to fall into the crystal ball-gazing trap, especially when you are talking about what will happen in technology between now until 2018. But a clear thread can be identified across Hopkins's predictions.
In the end user computing group, advanced collaboration and computing tools will continue to be of major importance to companies worldwide. This is crucial because of the increasingly dispersed nature of businesses and the war for skilled personnel – you need to get the right people to work effectively together and also retain as much as possible of their knowledge when they move on.
The sensors and remote computing technologies theme refers to the external, customer-facing side of technology. Here, the Promised Land is that of smart machines performing the collection and processing of data, then contextualising it to generate the nuggets of gold that can inform brands on what to offer to consumers, where and how.
But that information doesn't just appear by magic. So tools that provide advanced analytics capability as outlined in the process data management topic outlined by Hopkins – that is, digesting and making sense of structured and unstructured information quickly and cheaply – will be very useful to companies focusing on understanding their audience.
Finally, there needs to be a robust platform holding that glue of knowledge together. So, as described in the analyst's infrastructure and application platforms topic, big data platforms to handle large volumes of data, elastic storage capability and everything-as-a-service will continue to be the talk of the town for the years to come. Are you ready?

No chance of getting caught November 26, 2012Posted by Mark Hillary in Current Affairs, Internet.
Tags: hacker, hacking, information, mastercard, paypal, protest, security
add a comment
A computer hacking group caused losses totalling millions to financial service companies such as Mastercard and PayPal according to this news report of an ongoing case at Southwark Crown Court.
What is striking about the case is that the defendants believed in the concept of safety in numbers – if many people made an attack together then it would be far harder for the law enforcement authorities to prosecute individuals – and there was no gain to be made from the attacks. It was really just a protest.
This stemmed from actions such as making anti-piracy statements, or organisations that had failed to support Wikileaks and therefore became targets for the hackers.
Taken more broadly there is a very serious risk for any business here that the tabloid news coverage fails to mention.
If a company can so easily be prevented from trading by loosely affiliated hacking groups with a very low chance of them being caught and punished then there is a serious commercial risk. Any business stating a view on piracy or freedom of information that upsets someone can be targeted easily. Even crude methods such as flooding a website with hits or messages can take down and disrupt a business.
Information security has long been an integral part of the business strategy for companies such as retailers taking online orders, but it seems now that almost any firm engaging in any online transactions needs to take this seriously – or face a sudden loss of business if they attract the attention of hackers.

Who is the customer? February 24, 2011Posted by Mark Hillary in IT Services, Outsourcing.

Possibly the most important discussion I had at the Nasscom event in India recently was around the changing role of the CIO, and how this changes the whole relationship between the client and the service supplier.
The CIO is an evolving role. It is becoming more strategically significant and is focusing more purely on information use and flow – which means that there is less emphasis on the purchase of IT systems.
At the same time, services are getting easier to buy. Companies are offering complete solutions that can be delivered using a web browser so absolutely no infrastructure or software is required – beyond Internet access.
So business heads are getting far more involved in specifying what they need and even going to the market and purchasing it without any involvement from the IT department. In fact, if there is no IT infrastructure requirement then why would the IT department need to know what is being purchased or used by the business?
This has always been the case in BPO. The person buying a new HR system was the HR director – not the CIO. They might purchase a system in communication with the CIO, but ultimately the decision was that of the business line head.
Now the same is applicable for a wider variety of systems – even technical systems that would previously have needed agreement from the CIO.
Does it make the CIO redundant as a function? I don't think so as there still needs to be a strategy around infrastructure and security, but this does signal a complete change in the way companies use IT. The business user not only has the budget, but the power to buy, install, and maintain their own systems without any IT department interference.

Here are a few tell-tale signs that it's time to replace your bra:
- Any obvious physical damage to the bra: stains, tears, and holes.
- The underwire is misshapen, digging into your skin, or has punctured the fabric.
- Straps that used to stay put all day now fall off your shoulders. The straps are adjusted to be as tight as they can be, and they are still slipping.
- The hooks are bent or twisted. These can dig into your skin and cause discomfort.
- The elasticity of the band is worn out - most of the support you get from a bra comes from the band. If the band on your bra is stretched out, you're not getting the support you need.
- Molded cups or padded linings have lost their shape.
- Your body has changed. Fluctuations in weight and/or pregnancy can cause changes to your shape.

Due to limited resources and the increasing demand for more energy, engineers are always looking for sustainable and renewable energy sources. Energy engineers are working to improve the technology to create sustainable energy. These energy engineer jobs include positions like renewable energy engineer, solar energy engineer, and energy optimization engineers.
Renewable energy engineers are needed to develop and implement a sustainable energy future. Through financial incentives and grants, governments and corporations attempt to advance research and testing in the areas of photovoltaic power systems, advanced fuel-cell technology, wind power, green building, and geothermal heating energy systems. Applicants for these energy engineer jobs need a solid foundation in mathematics, physics, chemistry, and electrical and mechanical engineering. These jobs require a Bachelor of Science degree in a field of renewable energy engineering or similar degree for entry level positions. Some type of postgraduate degree in a similar field of study may also be required.
The earth receives more energy from the sun in one hour than is needed to power the entire earth for one year. The discovery of more efficient ways to harness solar energy is the main focus of solar energy engineer jobs. Solar power is used to heat water, create steam, turn turbines, and produce electricity, but engineers need to improve the amount of energy collected. Those who aspire to these engineering positions will require a master's or doctoral degree in energy engineering, applied physics, energy conversion or similar field.
Energy corporations and municipalities are always looking for ways to get more for the money spent on energy and future energy conservation. The energy optimization engineering specialist is one of the newer energy engineer jobs in this area. This position requires extensive working knowledge and experience in optimization and simulation applications. Such engineers audit and review existing power utilization in power plants, gas plants, and oil refining facilities, looking for opportunities for potential improvement. This kind of job may require several years of related experience and a bachelor's degree in chemical engineering or an advanced degree in a similar field. These engineers will likely also be required to perform economic studies and cost analyses, to collaborate with foreign energy companies, deliver presentations, and publish technical papers.
One of our editors will review your suggestion and make changes if warranted. Note that depending on the number of suggestions we receive, this can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days. Thank you for helping to improve wiseGEEK!

Get this straight: I am extremely grateful for the recognition my books have received. Blessing's Bead was a Junior Library Guild Selection, was named to the International Reading Association's Best Books for a Global Society, was on the Booklist Top Ten Historical Fiction for Youth list and was nominated to the American Library Association's Young Adult Library Association's Best Fiction for Young Adults list. This is heady stuff!
That said, there is a ghetto for books of color. You've seen it, yes?
Case in point: I've had several reviews for Blessing's Bead that were riffs on, "this is a great book for people who like Eskimo books."

Orchard Street Health Centre, Ipswich, Suffolk, IP4 2PZTel: 01473 213261
You can see your doctor during surgery times by making an appointment with reception.
The Medical Centre is open from 8.00am to 6.30pm Monday to Friday. Please contact the receptionist either by telephone on 01473 213261 or by calling into the Surgery.
We are asked by the Department of Health to offer appointments for a health care professional within 24 hours and a doctor within 48 hours. Whilst we do continue to offer booking beyond 48 hours this requirement does mean that the options are more limited than before.
A health care professional will see and assess you within 24 hours if you feel this is needed. However, you may not be able to see your usual doctor. Timing for routine appointments does not include Saturdays, Sundays or Bank Holidays. Should you find it difficult to attend a weekday appointment, you maybe able to book for a Saturday morning clinic with a Doctor.
GP+ Appointments Suffolk GP+ is for people who urgently need a doctor's appointment or are unable to see their GP during normal GP hours.
Appointments can be made via Reception during our usual opening hours. Please note cannot refer themselves to this service.
The service is staffed by local Suffolk GPs and Nurse Practitioners in Ipswich, Felixtowe, Stowmarket, Leiston and Wickham Market and is an NHS service delivered by the Suffolk GP Federation.
You will be given a booked appointment and will be seen by a suitable local GP or nurse who will have access to your medical records (once consent is given).
We take urgent calls at any time; otherwise we will phone patients back at a convenient time or after surgery. Very often a telephone consultation with a doctor can avoid the need for a trip to the surgery.
Please leave your telephone number and brief details about the call with our receptionist and a doctor will phone you back.
There may be times when you would feel more comfortable with a chaperone in the room during your consultation with the doctor. If this is the case please do not hesitate to ask, your doctor will be happy to arrange this immediately.
Those unable to speak and understand English are encouraged to come in with an English speaking friend or relative to translate; when this is not possible the surgery has access to interpretation services through Language Line (www.languageline.co.uk). Please advise reception that you need a double-appointment if your appointment will require a translator.
If you are unable to keep an appointment please let us know so that it can be made available for another patient. If you are late for your appointment you may be asked to rebook for another time in order to minimise waiting for other patients. For training purposes telephone calls to and from Reception may be monitored.

Studio Indigo is a design studio specialising in architecture and interior design, working on prestigious projects within the UK and across the world. Our national and international portfolio extends across a diverse range of sectors including luxury residential, commercial developments, yachts and aviation. The studio of 50 full-time professionals is comprised of an experienced and talented mix of architects and designers who work closely with its clients to create a result that is both personal and beautiful.
Architecture, Interior Design
Architectural and timeless, classic yet contemporary designs that will stand the test of time – set off by eclectic furnishings and a sense of fun.
We were appointed as architect, interior designer, landscape architect and project manager for a 'turn-key' project in Notting Hill. The existing house was in a state of disrepair and in need of re-planning as well as refurbishment. The remit was to re-plan the interior accommodation to provide a classic yet contemporary home, while maximising light and spaciousness. The client wanted memorable and characterful interior spaces and were as keen as we were to retain the character of the original 1840s building. To achieve the brief we stripped the existing building back to the shell and re-designed the layout from top to bottom. We wanted to create a 'wow' when you first enter the house and achieved this by adding a double-height entrance hall with a cantilevered stone staircase. This, together with large glass skylights and a glass infill in the kitchen, made the house much lighter. The addition of a full width rear extension provided the space to create everyday living on one level with a multi-function family kitchen, with large sliding doors closing off the dining room and drawing room for formal occasions. Increasing light at the lower ground level was achieved by creating large light wells to the front of the house and inserting arch windows in the family/games/media room. To ensure the living space felt cosy and comfortable, despite 15ft ceiling heights, we used wall lights and lamps instead of spotlights to create mood lighting and a greater sense of intimacy. The interior style was a mixture of antique and contemporary furniture and art, blended together to create a comfortable yet stylish interior within the framework of strong, identifiable architectural spaces. A celebration of bold colours, fabrics and materials bring life, vibrancy and joy to the house.

While researching the least-obtrusive substitute for pine nuts in pesto (I know you can add walnuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pepitas—but I wanted something that would be quiet about its presence), I came across a Serious Eats discussion on the very question.
The forum has no shortage of pesto opinions and information (did you know sunflower seeds produce a grayish pesto?) and I was nodding my head along, amassing ideas, until I got to this answer (reminder of the question: "Pine nuts substitute for pesto?")...
..."Dude, anything"?! Can anything really be the answer to this question?
I admire the can-do attitude. I welcome recipe experimentation. I'm all about doing things "any which way" and "subbing in what you've got" (see: my path to this online discussion in the first place; see: this article I wrote a long time ago called "11 Ways to Get Creative with Pesto")—but within reason.
Forget about tradition, that's fine (I'm all for bucking tradition! I throw tradition to the wind! I eat lentil bolognese, happily!). But (often more important to the eating experience), don't forget about taste. Personally, I'm having a hard time conceptualizing how candied almonds or oven-roasted peanuts would, you know, taste good blended into a pesto—unless you doctor that pesto in many, many other ways and use it for a completely different application. And at that point, its relationship to pesto is tenuous at best. I'll add walnuts, almonds, even—at the expense of the color—sunflower seeds. But when the substitution completely alters the flavor profile, the texture, the way it can be used, is it still a substitution? (May I remind you of pea guacamole, a controversy stirred up one year ago this month?)
You cannot add honey-roasted peanuts to basil leaves, olive oil, and cheese and expect pesto (same goes for Yahtzee dice or chocolate-covered macadamia nuts).
I ask you: Where does creativity end and madness begin? When have we gone too far? With experimenting and playing and running around, screaming "WOOOOOOOOO!" with our arms in the air, waving wildly back and forth, like we're at some sort of underground rave, adding literally anything to our precious basil leaves?
Could this actually be a very good idea? I invite your opinions in the comments below.
EDITOR'S NOTE: This story originally ran in July of last year. We're republishing it because, well, it's always a good idea to reignite some healthy, vigorous discussion!
