I was recently asked to assist some clients from Russia who approached me having found a property in Westminster they wanted to purchase. This would be as a second home to stay in when in London. The high value apartment they wished to purchase was valued at £6 million. They wanted to borrow as much as was possible against the property and thus needed a mortgage as a non UK resident.
As the director of a vastly successful business in Russia, my client was personally wealthy. He wasn't employed or affiliated with the Russian government, but the majority banks I spoke with regarded him as a PEP (Politically Exposed Person) due to the fact that he had been involved in parliament several years ago. This meant he was generally restricted from opening the bank account and mortgage he would require in order to make this purchase.
However, I managed to persuade one private bank who had a Russian department and they were able to put me in touch with a Russian speaking banker. I was able to persuade them to do a more comprehensive compliance check than tends to be the norm. Not only did they do the necessary in-house compliance checks but they also instructed a third party check, after which they were happy to take the clients on board.
They realised they would in fact be comfortable lending £3 million if the client was willing to place £3 million on deposit.
The proposed terms were finalised as a 2.3% + 3 month LIBOR and it was not necessary to put any assets under management in this particular case. Under these circumstances this rate is impressive, especially with a private bank.
The entirety of this process was not as fast as the majority of the cases that I settle as the complex nature of the client's Russian nationality means that the bank has to be particularly vigilant from the compliance side. However, the fact that it's been settled is a great success and the client was very happy as they had lost all hope of purchasing a property in the UK up until now.

Read the text below about Learning Disabilities:
A learning disability is a neurological disorder. In simple terms, a learning disability results from a difference in the way a person's brain is "wired." Children with learning disabilities are as smart or smarter than their peers. But they may have difficulty reading, writing, spelling, reasoning, recalling and/or organizing information if left to figure things out by themselves or if taught in conventional ways. A learning disability can't be cured or fixed; it is a lifelong issue. With the right support and intervention, however, children with learning disabilities can succeed in school and go on to successful, often distinguished careers later in life.Parents can help children with learning disabilities achieve such success by encouraging their strengths, knowing their weaknesses, understanding the educational system, working with professionals and learning about strategies for dealing with specific difficulties.(http://www.ldonline.org/ldbasics/whatisld)
1. Dyslexia
2. Dyscalculia
3. Dysgraphia
4. Auditory and Visual Processing Disorder
5. Nonverbal Learning Disabilities
6. Attention Deficit Disorder 7. Autism
( ) It is a developmental disability characterised by impairments in social skills, language, and behaviour. However, these difficulties occur at different levels so some individuals have no verbal communication or eye contact with others, while others have limited speech and cope in a social setting. It is neurologically based and has been shown to be strongly genetically determined.http://www.open.ac.uk/inclusiveteaching/pages/understanding-and-awareness/what-are-specific-learning-difficulties.php
( ) a writing disability in which a person finds it hard to form letters or write within a defined space.
( ) a language-based disability in which a person has trouble understanding written words. It may also be referred to as reading disability or reading disorder.
( ) sensory disabilities in which a person has difficulty understanding language despite normal hearing and vision.
( ) a mathematical disability in which a person has a difficult time solving arithmetic problems and grasping math concepts.
( ) a neurological disorder which originates in the right hemisphere of the brain, causing problems with visual-spatial, intuitive, organizational, evaluative and holistic processing functions.
( ) it is characterized primarily by inattention, easy distractibility, disorganization, procrastination, and forgetfulness.

Evolution crusader Olivia Judson has written yet another excellent op-ed piece in the New York Times on the importance of teaching evolution in school classrooms. She breaks it down into three main reasons:
- Understanding of the evolutionary model that can be applied to other changing systems.
- Immediately relevant to the understanding of diseases and the ecosystem.
- Provides a philosophical understanding of the way science works.
I can't find fault in any of those and could probably add a few of my own. Although the heart of the article is the non-debate over the teaching of evolution vs. biblical creationism, Judson intelligently steers clear from making it the main focal point. As The Friendly Atheist points out, "Teaching them that there is an accepted or debated alternative just makes the problem worse." I couldn't agree more. There is no real debate. Its a non-issue. Intelligent Design/Creationism is not a scientific theory and therefore not an alternative to evolution. Its just religion trying to stick its nose where it doesn't belong.
…since the science classroom is where a contempt for evidence is often first encountered, it is also arguably where it first begins to be cultivated. A society where ideology is a substitute for evidence can go badly awry.
You'll get no argument from me. You can read the whole article here. It's short and well worth your time.

Rory McIlroy finally got his game in order and made short work of Hideki Matsuyama to roll into the quarterfinals of the Match Play Championship on Saturday at San Francisco.
McIlroy, who made only four birdies in narrowly getting out of group play, ran off four birdies in eight holes for a 5-up lead, and the Japanese star could never recover. Next up for McIlroy was Paul Casey, who held off a late comeback by Charl Schwartzel.
"Definitely the best I've played scoring-wise," McIlroy said. "I was able to take advantage of some of the good shots I was hitting today."
McIlroy would be cutting it close to get to Las Vegas for the Manny Pacquiao-Floyd Mayweather Jr. fight. He teed off at 4 p.m. and needed to end that one perhaps even sooner than the Matsuyama match to get there on time.
And if he were to win, the semifinals start Sunday at 6:45 a.m.
"Two tickets there. There's a plane waiting," McIlroy said. "Whether I get on it, we'll have to see. But this takes priority."
McIlroy and fifth-seeded Jim Furyk were the only players from the top 35 still around at the TPC Harding Park.
Furyk overcame an early deficit to J.B. Holmes for a 5-and-3 victory to reach the quarterfinals for the second consecutive year.
Other round of 16 winners were Louis Oosthuizen over Rickie Fowler, Danny Willett over Lee Westwood, Tommy Fleetwood over Branden Grace, John Senden over Hunter Mahan, and Gary Woodland over Marc Leishman.
Lexi Thompson finished a round of three-under-par 68 with a birdie after a fortunate ricochet to share the third-round lead with Inbee Park in the LPGA Tour's North Texas Shootout.
The approach by the long-hitting Thompson at the par-five 18th was a screamer well left of the hole. But the ball struck the front facing of a temporary grandstand and ricocheted onto the green, skimming just over the top of a bunker. That set up a long two-putt birdie to get to nine-under 204.
Park, the 2013 North Texas winner, had a more conventional closing birdie, hitting her approach inside a foot for a round of 69.
Brooke Henderson, the 17-year-old Canadian who had the second-round lead, shot an even-par 71 to drop into a tie for third at eight under with 40-year-old Karrie Webb (64) and Angela Stanford (67).
Lydia Ko, the 18-year-old from New Zealand who is the No. 1 player in the world, shot a 70 to get even for the week.
Michael Allen birdied the final two holes for a four-under 68 and a one-stroke lead after the second round of the Insperity Invitational at The Woodland, Texas.
Allen had a 10-under 134 total at The Woodlands Country Club. He has seven victories on the 50-and-over tour, winning twice last season.
Joe Durant was second after a 68. He had a double bogey on the par-four 17th and rebounded with a birdie on the par-four 18th.

Fortunately for the human race, we are a very adaptable species. We are able to adjust to new circumstances without many major lasting implications; we are able to condition our bodies to acclimatize to a variety of challenging and adverse conditions. It is what allows us to run marathons, and climb mountains; our adaptability is what has enabled us to continue to persevere and overcome adversity. These are miraculous feats that have resulted in our ultimate evolutionary success as a species. But when we are talking about modern day fitness goals, this amazing adaptability can be a major problem to overcome in order to continue making physical progress and achieving new results. Growing research indicates that the key to achieving fitness goals is through a variety of fitness strategies. It is important to mix up exercise routines regularly in order to keep making progress, surprising our muscles, pushing our limits, and avoiding a discouraging fitness plateau. Many fitness industry professionals recommend changing up a fitness routine every 5-7 weeks, though it can be different for each individual as there can be numerous attributing factors to a perceived fitness plateau. It is for this reason that we recommend a variety of fitness and exercise options in order to keep things fresh and mix it up. This can be especially true when looking for targeted fitness and cardio goals for ladies, particularly ab workouts for women. Perhaps the old saying still rings true — After all is said and done variety is still the spice of life.
In this case, here is a collection of a few excellent ab workouts for women taken from a variety of tried and true workout regimes and fitness disciplines.
While many people have tried are aware of the fitness system known as Pilates (named after its German-born developer Joseph Pilates), fewer people understand how it works or what makes it such a great ab workout for women and men. Pilates puts the focus on building flexibility and muscle endurance as well as emphasizing the importance of developing a strong core. In addition to being an excellent way to tone muscles including the abdominals, Pilates can also be helpful in balancing musculature, improving balance and alleviating back pain. While there are Pilates studios that use machines, there are also many isolated Pilates exercises that require no equipment at all. In fact, Pilates is an excellent fitness system to be used in tandem with and individual's yoga practice. Another reason to add Pilates or some Pilates exercises to your fitness regimen is because it's designed with all fitness levels in mind. This also means that it is a great strategy for continually challenging yourself with more difficult exercises as core strength is improved. Ab tip: when performing an exercise, focus on pulling your bellybutton inward towards to the spine. This will ensure that your core is as engaged as possible and is a secret to eventually achieving flatter looking abs.
We can all recognize and appreciate the notion of swimmer's abs. The reality is they aren't necessarily as unattainable as they initially may look. Swimming continues to be one of the most highly recommended forms of physical exercise by physicians and physiotherapists. It is a no-impact, aerobic workout that tones muscles while shredding calories and can be a great addition to any ab workout for women or men. To maximize the ab working benefits, try a combination of the freestyle swim (front breaststroke) and the butterfly swim. Just 10 minutes of freestyle swimming burns 100 calories. Ab Tip: Be sure to be consciously engaging your core in order to stabilize your body, keeping it as straight as possible and maximizing your speed.
Exercise/Fitness Ball
While it can be difficult to accommodate for gym equipment, a fitness ball can be a very worthwhile investment. Unlike expensive machinery and many other home-gym accessories, a fitness ball is an inexpensive alternative that delivers a big bang for small bucks. Fitness balls work by forcing the muscles of the body to work harder than they normally do during a typical flat-mat or floor exercise regimen. This is because the muscles have to respond to the instability of the ball. Exercise ball workouts deliver great ab workouts for women and men especially as many of the core-building exercises focus on working the especially tricky lower abdominal region. Ab tip: consider replacing your desk chair or office chair with an exercise ball to engage your core muscles all day long and improve overall posture and balance.

Their children

She's glad she has that verse
leaning against a wall,
she reads it

I'm sorry for not getting a post up on Monday. Well, not really. I was out of town meeting my baby nephew and taking care of my nieces while my sister was in the hospital.
I admit, I've barely done any writing this week. I haven't had a chance. I've barely been able to keep my head above water with school and work. And that was before going out of town. Things have been chaotic, let me tell you.
I haven't heard anything else from my beta readers for Days of the Kill. They have twelve days… They had better get back to me. Oh, I guess my anxiety is getting back up again. Moving on now…
The Path to Biological is getting harder and harder to edit. I'm starting to notice more and more plot changes. Once I get to the third draft, it will be a little bit easier, I hope. I'm not sure how much easier, exactly, but easier. At least I'll be done with trying to make the beginning of the story the same plot as the end. I've already seen one thing that I'm going to have to change…
The Child of Fault is coming along fairly well. I have a little over 10,000 words. I was hoping to get there last week. Instead, I got there this week. Oh, well. Things happen. Life happens. Maybe I'll get about 10,000 words in this week. Or not, since my laptop is at my sister's place. I managed to forget it. Joy.
I'm not too thrilled with the fact that I haven't done much, but things happen. Meeting my nephew was a happy occasion. Taking care of my nieces was a chore, but still fun. Sometimes.
I won't be doing a vlog this week due to not having my laptop, but I'll get back to it next week. I'm looking forward to getting back to it. Wednesdays are fun for me. Most of the time. Check out my other two. The link to my YouTube channel is on my contact page. 🙂
Here's to hoping to a better week writing-wise!

Nutfield Priory
Half an hour from either London Victoria or London Bridge and you're in Redhill Surrey. Think blackberrying along the hedgerows, wandering along narrow country lanes and taking tea at Nutfield Priory. The name is slightly misleading – this wasn't a priory at all, but built as a private home in the nineteenth century. Not that … Continue reading

We Are A Ministry of Compassion and Peace
Grieving loss is a normal response and a very individual one. Whether you are dealing with human loss or pet loss, we are here to help. The truth is that all losses, animal or human, can plunge you into despair and may signal the beginning of a profound spiritual-emotional journey. Like grief for humans, grief for animal companions can only be dealt with over time and in stages.
Goodbye Is Never Easy: Pet Grief Workshop is an on-going pet grief support gathering which meets on the 4th Monday, at 6pm, in Covington, Louisiana at PJs Coffee on Hwy. 190 at Three Rivers Road. The manual used is not required and meditations, therapeutic journaling and pet memorial ceremony.
Pet Memorials: Many religions tell us we need to be compassionate. We need to be kind. We need to provide unconditional love to all. If that is the standard by which we are to be judged – pets must be the role models for us to follow. Typically, a pet memorial is held at the person's home and in the backyard. Often, the pet has been pre-buried or has been cremated and this is a ceremonial time to inter the pet's ashes. There is a formatted funeral that is followed which can include family pet remembrances and a memory candle lighting.
Pet Memorials are serious and very healing for the bereaved loved ones especially children. Donations are appreciated, but not required. As pastor, I can offer you a sacred service for your beloved pet. For more information, please contact me below.

Caffy was found one very hot August day as a teeny kitten. I picked her up and looked to see if there were any other kittens - there were none. I took her immediately to a veterinarian who warned me to not get attached, she will most likely not pull through. The vet started an IV drip because she was so incredibly dehydrated. The next morning, I called and Caffy was still alive. Again, the vet warned to not get attached because a teeny kitten that young out in the dreadful heat with no means of fluid will certainly have kidneys that are taxed and damaged. Euthanasia was mentioned. I picked her up and brought her home.
For seventeen years, Caffy slept on my head every single night. For seventeen years, Caffy was my meditation partner. For seventeen years, Caffy was my companion, my cat, my confidante. For seventeen years, I was blessed with her life and love. Caffy did die due to kidney failure - 17 years after her rescue. How do I thank a precious cat for giving me so much in that short amount of time? Seventeen years was not enough.

New York Recently passed the Child Victims Act. This important law extends the statute of limitations for child abuse victims and it opens a window for victims to bring claims. This window will not stay open long, though, so if you have been a victim of child sex abuse, you need to act fast. Call an attorney from our firm today to get the justice you deserve. Learn more about our experience helping victims of child sexual abuse.
Do not wait. Contact our lawyers today to discuss your case in a free consultation. 212-235-1197.
Based in New York City, Edelman & Edelman, P.C., represents clients throughout Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, Bronx, Staten Island, Long Island & New Jersey.
We do not accept standard answers to complex questions. We dig deep for the truth and work hard to ensure that all negligent parties are held accountable for the harm you have suffered. Other lawyers have told us we go far beyond what they would do in search of victory, but we don't know how to do it any other way. You may not know it yet, but you're lookin' at your lawyers.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim?
The statute of limitations for many personal injury claims in New York is three years, but that time limit can be significantly shorter in certain situations, including when the case involves negligence by a government employee. Don't wait until it is too late. Contact us right away to learn how long you have to file your personal injury claim.
What should I do after suffering a serious personal injury?
Whether your personal injury was caused by a motor vehicle accident, a bike crash, a defective/dangerous product or anything in between, there are four important steps you should consider:
1) seek necessary medical attention;
2) call 911, whether you need police or an ambulance;
3) gather evidence and information, including photos of the injury/accident and names/contact information of any witnesses; and
4) contact one of our attorneys to learn your legal rights.
What should I NOT do after suffering a serious personal injury?
First, DO NOT forget to complete the four steps already mentioned:
1) get necessary medical help for your personal injury;
2) call 911;
3) gather evidence; and
4) contact an attorney.
In addition, you should never admit fault or speak to the other side, including the other party's insurance company or their lawyer. They will use what you say against you, so have your own personal injury lawyer communicate on your behalf. Lastly, never accept a settlement offer for your injury without first discussing it with an attorney.
What are the most common causes of construction accidents?
Otherwise known as the "Fatal Four," these few construction hazards cause well over half of all fatal construction accidents every year:
1) falls from heights;
2) hit/struck by objects;
3) caught-between/in accidents; and
4) electrocution.
What is New York's Scaffolding Law, and why is it important?
This law requires all property owners and general contractors to provide construction workers with proper safety equipment — including scaffolding — when work is being done to a building. If they fail to do this and a worker is injured, the owner or contractor will be legally liable. In many cases, this law provides injured construction workers with the most effective legal remedy.

We all know you've got to limit your offers right? It cuts down on procrastination and gets folks to buy now, not later.
But many times people get stuck on how they can limit their offers
How can you make it sound believable in an ordinary, everyday small business?
Well here's a story that will help.
I was in the newsagent the other day, buying pens, checking out the magazines, and generally taking in what's new.
When I was paying at the register, I happened to notice the Lifesavers to my left. Now my kids love Lifesavers, so I went to grab their favourite ones (musk) when my hand stopped.
I looked down and there, right before me, was a new flavour, Raspberry Fizz.
But that's not what caught my attention.
What caught my attention were two little words on the packet. Two little words that can have a BIG impact on your sales. The words?
Limited Edition
Wow! I nearly laughed out loud.
Think about it.
If you can have a "Limited Edition" of Lifesavers, you could just about do it for anything couldn't you? So how can you apply this to your business?

I Love the Holidays Each Year!
We always leave the dining room decorated for Fall until after Thanksgiving, and we host a full 3-course Thanksgiving Dinner for our guests that are interested. We will do the same for Christmas Day Dinner, since most restaurants are closed for the holiday.
This past Thanksgiving was wonderful. We had 6 repeat guests and 12 new guests for dinner--we are always welcoming new guests to become a part of our Abbington Green family!
The dinner this year was amazing! We served 2 turkeys, ham, mashed potatoes and gravy, green bean and sweet potato casseroles, Steve's Mom's stuffing recipe, salad, cranberry relish, and rolls. To finish off the meal, we had an amazing assortment of desserts.
My compliments to Zack and Carey in the kitchen for helping me prep for days ahead of Thanksgiving. Also to Steve and our friends Ivy and Ken who helped on Thanksgiving Day by serving our 18 guests.
I thought you all might want to see a few photos from our Thanksgiving Dinner:
We have so much to be thankful for. The holidays are always busy, but it is really important to take a moment and stop to think about how fortunate we are. I'm extremely thankful for my family and great friends. I'm thankful that I believed in myself and that Steve believed in me so much that he'd be my partner in taking steps to achieve my dream of owning an Inn. I'm thankful for the wonderful staff and great guests I get to meet each week--all of them with interesting lives and stories to share.
Abbington Green allows me to experience so many wonderful things and people from all of the world. I've truly been blessed with a great life!

More F-15 Tricks
A week ago, I posted a video showcasing some of the features of the new radar being installed on F-15E Strike Eagle aircraft. Today, I've got another one, this time showcasing the AESA radar's somewhat niftier air-to-ground capabilities – tracking moving targets, automatically identifying and classifying targets, and even a rudimentary BDA ability after the weapons have impacted (in this video, it's WCMDs). It's pretty slick eye candy, courtesy of Raytheon, who designed and manufacture the AESA system.
As with the previous video, it's big – A ten-minute WMV file with 1024×768 pixels resolution, and about 200MB in size. Don't even think about trying to stream it, it just isn't going to happen. Instead, do the right-click, save-as thing, and wait a few minutes for your daily fix of CGI goodness. The link is right here, on a server of mine; you may or may not also be able to use this Coral Cache link.

Conquer Low Platelets
Avian influenza viruses have caused a spectrum of disease in humans, including typical influenza-like illness, conjunctivitis and severe respiratory disease. More recent outbreaks, and the H5N1 virus in particular, have been more severe and more frequently associated with fatal illness. In general, avian influenza virus infections in children have been no less severe than in adults.
Mild respiratory disease was reported in 2 Dutch children due to reassortant human-avian influenza viruses in 1994 [6]. In 1997, a 3-year-old boy in Hong Kong died of acute respiratory failure and multiorgan system dysfunction due to an H5 influenza strain. Genomic sequencing and analysis of the virus showed that it was an H5N1 avian strain [36]. During that outbreak, 5 other children under the age of 18 were infected. A 13-year-old girl died of acute respiratory failure and multiorgan system dysfunction, a 2-year-old boy was hospitalized for 3 days with pneumonia and 3 other children experienced uneventful upper respiratory infection. The children who died were previously healthy. A total of 12 cases were reported, with more severe disease and higher fatality rate in the adults [37].
Outbreaks of avian influenza have continued since 1997, and have spread to broader geographic areas, particularly H5N1. There were 2 confirmed and 1 probable H5N1 cases in Hong Kong in February of 2003 [38]. A 33-year-old man developed fatal progressive respiratory failure and his 8-year-old son recovered from respiratory disease after a prolonged hospi-talization. Both had profound lymphopenia, hypoxia and consolidation of chest radiographs. The family also had a 7-year-old daughter who had died of a febrile pneumonia 1 week prior to the father and brother's illnesses, but she had not been tested for influenza.
Two cases of H9N2 avian influenza infection of humans occurred in Hong Kong, one a child, with typical influenza symptoms of fever, rhinor-rhea and cough [39]. Both patients fully recovered. There was also a large outbreak of H7N7 in the Netherlands in 2003 on poultry farms, with infection of both pigs and humans [40]. There were a total of 89 human cases, primarily among poultry workers. Most of the illnesses were conjunctivitis, with only a few typical influenza-like illnesses. There was one fatality, a veterinarian who visited one of the farms and developed acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Most of the cases were attributed to direct contact with infected poultry, although there were three possible instances of person-to-person transmission.
During 2003 and 2004, there were 34 cases of confirmed human H5N1 infection in Thailand and Vietnam [41-43]. Seven of the 12 laboratory-confirmed cases in Thailand were boys age 2-13, all of whom presented with fever, cough and tachypnea. Lymphopenia and elevated transaminases were noted in most. All 7 boys had abnormalities on chest radiograph consisting of focal or multifocal consolidation, and all required mechanical ventilation. Five of these 7 children died, and overall mortality in the Thailand outbreak was 8/12 (67%). In January 2004, 10 human H5N1 infections were reported in Vietnam. Seven patients were less than 18 years old, with a mean age of 12 and the youngest 5 years. All patients presented with fever, tachypnea, cough, and hypoxia. Five also had diarrhea, but none of the children had myalgia, rash or conjunctivitis. Similar to the Thailand cases, the most common laboratory abnormalities noted were lymphopenia, thrombocytopenia and elevated transaminases. All had extensive consolidations on chest radiographs, which progressed despite aggressive therapy. All developed respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation, and 7/8 children died, despite aggressive supportive care and treatment with oseltamivir, ribavirin and/or steroids for ARDS.
Two other children were identified with probable or confirmed H5N1 infection during the same outbreak [44]. A 9-year-old girl presented with fever, watery diarrhea, shock and lethargy. Initial laboratory tests including cerebrospinal fluid were normal. She had fulminant shock, became comatose and died within 24 hours. No influenza tests were performed. However, 8 days later, her 4-year-old brother presented with fever, headache, vomiting and profound watery diarrhea. His initial laboratory values were remarkable only for elevated transaminases. However, he developed pneumonia and lethargy, progressing to coma, and died of respiratory failure 5 days after admission. During his hospitalization, he developed lym-phopenia, thrombocytopenia, and bilateral infiltrates on chest radiograph. Cerebrospinal fluid was remarkable only for elevated protein. He was diagnosed with unexplained encephalitis, but postmortem testing detected H5N1 influenza by RT-PCR in cerebrospinal fluid, serum, throat and rectal swabs, and culture of cerebrospinal fluid grew H5N1 influenza virus. Thus, it is highly likely that his sister had been infected with H5N1. Notably, neither child initially presented with respiratory symptoms and the sister never had respiratory disease. Both had had frequent exposure to ducks and chickens at home and there were no other cases in the family.
As of April 30, 2006, a total of 205 cases of human H5N1 infection had been reported to the WHO [45]. One-half of these occurred in patients less than 20 years old, with a range from 3 months to 72 years. Twenty-one cases (10%) were in children < 5 years, 32 (16%) were in children from 5 to 9 years, and 49 (24%) were in 10-19-year olds. There was a male predominance in the younger cases, with a male:female ratio of 1.5 in the 53 cases < 10 years old. The sex ratio was equal in all other age groups. It is not known whether this finding reflects gender-specific epidemiological risk factors or biological differences.

Patcher: MS and Sony desire belief in Kinect and Move shortages
Michael Patcher has said Sony and Microsoft are both bending the truth when it comes to the availability of Move and Kinect, in order to great a demand for sales.
Speaking in an interview with IncGamers, the Wedbush Morgan analyst was particularly damning of Sony.
"I think both companies would very much like for consumers to believe that their devices are highly sought after and difficult to obtain. That usually works to spur demand.
"Sony shipped 2.5 million units in the US and Europe, and their sales are nowhere near that level, so I'm not sure how they can reconcile the fact that units shipped far exceed units sold."
Pachter was a bit kinder to Microsoft.
"I do think that Microsoft is managing supply a bit better, and keeping standalone Kinect supply tight to make sure that there is a steady supply through Christmas.
"They've shipped a lot of console bundles to ensure that the eBay price doesn't get above $300 for the standalone unit, but supply of the standalone remains tight."
"Sony is trying the same strategy as Microsoft with Kinect, making sure that there are plenty of bundles, but controlling supply of the standalone controllers."
Kinect launched in November, following a Move launch in September.

Segmenting and Tagging Text with Neural Networks

Segmentation and tagging of text are important preprocessing steps for higher-level natural language processing tasks. In this thesis, we apply a sequence labelling framework based on neural networks to various segmentation and tagging tasks, including sentence segmentation, word segmentation, morpheme segmentation, joint word segmentation and part-of-speech tagging, and named entity transliteration. We apply a general neural CRF model to different tasks by designing specific tag sets. In addition, we explore effective ways of representing input characters, such as utilising concatenated n-grams and sub-character features, and use ensemble decoding to mitigate the effects of random parameter initialisation.
The segmentation and tagging models are evaluated in a truly multilingual setup with more than 70 datasets. The experimental results indicate that the proposed neural CRF model is effective for segmentation and tagging in general as state-of-the-art accuracies are achieved on datasets in different languages, genres, and annotation schemes for various tasks. For word segmentation, we propose several typological factors to statistically characterise the difficulties posed by different languages and writing systems. Based on this analysis, we apply language-specific settings to the segmentation system for higher accuracy. Our system achieves substantially better results on languages that are more difficult to segment when compared to previous work. Moreover, we investigate conventionally adopted evaluation metrics for segmentation tasks. We propose that precision should be excluded and using recall alone is more adequate for sentence segmentation and word segmentation. The segmentation and tagging tools implemented along with this thesis are publicly available as experimental frameworks for future development as well as preprocessing tools for higher-level NLP tasks.

I feel sorry for the lack of posts this month, but I had to carry out some important things and take some measures for the website. Besides, June is the exams month for those who study at the university. You know on June, when the weather is ideal for endless strolls in the park and there are many festivals or activities for free all around the city, I have to stay home and study. But it usually goes like that: I start studying syntax and phonetics but a flashback of some moments on a Greek island passes through my mind, I give up on learning and look at summer pictures. Then I return to my books because some things need to be done, whether you like them or not.
I have many exciting future plans for the world of the Viennese girl, which will not only continue but grow more and more, little by little.
"Vienna in June" is a photo project that I would like to bring to this blog starting this month. Here are some photos of the city, photos that I took during the month of June, photos without any Photoshop, special filters or other editing. Different spots of the city that I hope you enjoy.
"What I like about photographs is that they capture a moment that's gone forever, impossible to reproduce."

When you think about Mardi Gras the first place that usually comes to mind is New Orleans. While it's hard to imagine a bigger or better celebration than in NOLA (there's not and we promise the author is not biased) take a look at our list of places that hosts their own carnival celebration!
They say in Texas everything is bigger! If this is the case, then Texas is at the top of our list of places you didn't know had a Mardi Gras celebration! Every year Galveston hosts a twelve day carnival that attracts upwards of 250,000 people. It began in 1867 since then the Texas Gulf Coast Mardi Gras has become a popular destination for families and friends. Like NOLA, Galveston hosts morning and nightly parades and has nearly fifteen krewes (private social club, think people on the float throwing the beads). Not to mention its annual golf cart parade and Jolly Jester 5K. In a true New Orleans style, the Texans even eat King Cake a round cinnamon-roll with purple, green, and gold icing! (Yum) We'd say, if you can't make it to NOLA for the festivities, Galveston Texas is the next best thing.
Keeping things in the south, Pensacola is next on our list! The festivities begin in early January and peaks on February 12, 2013, this year's Fat Tuesday. Remember, Mardi Gras is the day before lent. Besides the weather, one great thing about their celebration are the krewe balls which are open to the public! In NOLA, balls are the social event of the season, some by invitation only, with debutantes being introduced at the Ball Tableau. There are as many as one hundred floats in Pensacola. Floats are usually elaborately decorated and have a large number of krewe members riding on them tossing trinkets into the crowd. If you're in the Pensacola this year, be sure the check out the Krewe of Lafitte's parade of lights the Friday before Fat Tuesday, it's a hometown tradition.
Mobile, Alabama and Biloxi Mississippi both host their own carnival celebration in the Gulf Port region. The great thing their celebrations are the number of family friendly events that are held throughout the month. If you're with your children be sure to find the designated family friendly parade routes, it's an alcohol-free area.
Surprisingly enough, Saint Louis Missouri has made it to our list of places! And if you love pets then you're in for a treat! Every year nearly 70,000 people, along with hundreds of animals attend the city's annual pet parade. Participants walk with their adorable balls of fur and man best friends before the crowd avec costume. In addition, St. Louis hosts its annual Wiener Dog Derby, a three division race that honors the fastest dachshund.
If you don't live in or near any of these states, here's a quick and easy way to throw your own Mardi Gras celebration. Decorate your space with the traditional colors of the season: purple, green, and gold. Encourage your guests to wear masks and dress up using the traditional colors. Scour the internet for some upbeat jazz music and create a play list, it's a must. If you're adventurous in the kitchen, serve a NOLA favorite like po-boys for appetizers. It's just French bread, lettuce, tomato, pickle and the meat of your choice! For a party like this, a king cake is a must have! Make mini cinnamon rolls and use food coloring to dye the icing! Have fun and as they say in New Orleans, laissez les bons temps rouler (let the good times roll)!
