The positive feedback this episode has gotten astounds me. I did not like "Mad Mod" AT ALL. I think it is the weakest episode of Teen Titans yet and served as nothing more than a "look at how freaky we can be" instance. The humor was dull, the Titans were practically automated robots, and the constant black-and-white swirls were just plain annoying. One gets the strong impression that the minds behind "Mad Mod" were under the influence of some powerful drugs. Nothing else could explain the random and un-funny scenes which were stringed together to make this. An episode of the Powerpuff Girls has loads more interest and intelligence than this installment.
"Mad Mod" doesn't even bother to give you an introduction or backstory. There are certainly times when dropping the viewer in the middle of the action is a good idea, but with the lack of plot or substance throughout, it's just another example of the creators being lazy. Why has Mad Mod kidnapped the Titans? Because they're "bratty do-gooders" of course. Isn't that reason enough? Apparently, the viewers shouldn't exercise that organ referred to as the brain when watching cartoons.
Robin was the deus ex machina element to this episode. He just happens to have a key that fits his locks...he just happens to be there in time to save Starfire (ever notice he's the only one who does?)...he just happens to fall through the tear Starfire inadvertently made in the funhouse. This isn't the job of a superhero. It requires someone with dumb luck.
Starfire is increasingly annoying with her attempts to make Beast Boy laugh. Cyborg takes the role of the idiotic jester since Beast Boy is out of commission for most of the time. As for Beast Boy himself, this is the most insulting episode to his character. Not only was he made out to be the only one weak-minded enough to fall under hypnosis, but his sense of humor now appreciates such words as "boogers" and "beeeeeeeeeeelch." Hilarious, I'm sure.
Raven might as well have not been there.
To further the drug theory, there is a Scooby-Doo reference. However, even the most yawn-inducing episode of Scooby-Doo is more interesting and coherent than this mess. The song that plays during the chase is nice and upbeat, but nothing memorable. They also manage to recycle every single over-used and cliché "funhouse chase" technique.
Mad Mod is the central problem. It's fine and good when a one-dimensional, slapstick villain shows up for a cameo or supporting role (Mumbo was a good example). But basing an entire episode around one leads to nothing but awfulness. If he never shows up again, it'll be too soon.
One star. And I don't think I'm being harsh or unfair at all.

Is your home a 10-minute (or less) walk from a park? One-third of Americans have a much longer trek than that to get to their nearest park, according to research by the National Recreation and Park Association, Urban Land Institute and, The Trust for Public Land.
Recently, Rachel Banner, a senior program manager at the NRPA, wrote a piece for the National Association of Realtors' Spaces to Places blog about a year-long initiative to make more public spaces and parks available — within a 10-minute walk from every person.
Banner also talks about the Emerging Trends in Real Estate report, which revealed that while residential and commercial developers may create amenities within their buildings or spaces, that's not necessarily what creates a lifelong resident of a city.
"The report talks a lot about the growing demand for amenities in both office and residential development. In the discussion about the report Owen Thomas, CEO of Boston Properties also remarked that while each year a new set of cities may be pegged for growth, we must look at how long those cities will remain "hot spots" and the places people stay long-term," Ballard said. "While including amenities within a building may initially attract owners or tenants, it is the amenities outside of the building open to all that will get them to stay." (more…)

A Peru travel adventure
In search of the Incas
Machu Picchu is definitely a must for your Peru travel experience. The famous Inca city is without a doubt a highlight of a trip to Peru. You can get to Machu Picchu by bus, but you can also walk there via the Inca trail, the Salkantay trek or the coffee route. The last option was developed by our local travel expert, and it is a wonderful alternative to the busy Inca trail. On the way you get to visit different organic coffee and cocoa plantations, plus you get to sleep at the coffee farmer's home. If you are not tired after Machu Picchu, you should explore Cusco and the Sacred Valley. Inca cities such as Pisac and Ollantaytambo are also well worth a visit.
Peruvian Jungle: Trek in to the Amazon
Are you looking for extra diversity during your Peru travel adventure? If so, you should definitely spend a couple of days in the Amazon. You will find all sorts ecosystems in the Amazon, so it has something to offer everyone – whether it's your first time in the Peruvian jungle or if you've been before. In the jungle of Peru, you will find beautiful parrots, frogs and other unique flora and fauna. You can also choose to stay in special jungle lodges spread across the Amazon. Our Peru travel expert Saby will gladly advise you on the best routes, sights and accommodations.
Peru Homestays: Get to know the locals
During your Peru travel holiday, you have the possibility to be accommodated by people from the local community. A beautiful place to do this is at the Colca Canyon. You can also stay with a family at the high altitudes of Lake Titicaca. This place is very special and has welcoming host families, beautiful beaches and great views over the lake.
Off the beaten track
If you are going to Peru, you must visit the South. You will find the beautiful cities of Arequipa and Cusco, as well as famous Inca ruins. If you have more time you should also travel through the north of Peru. Huaraz and Cordillera Blanca are great examples of pilgrimages. During your Peru travel, you can participate in multi-day mountain treks where you won't encounter other travellers. In the northern region of Chachapoyas you will find one of the highest waterfalls in the world and impressive archaeological sites.
Peru travel by car: Discover the country at your own pace
Travelling by public transport is pretty straight forward in Peru, but travelling by rental car allows for a more adventurous trip. For example, in the south of the country you can rent a car and drive from Arequipa to Cusco. With a rental car, you can simply enjoy the country at your own pace. The perfect way to have a Peru travel adventure!
Peru with children
Do you want to visit Peru with your children? That is not a problem at all. Our local travel expert Saby has a lot of experience in organizing family trips in Peru, and she will gladly help you tailor your itinerary to include all your requests for a memorable Peru travel experience for the whole family.

Know Before you Go
General Information and Insider Tips
Residents of the US, UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand do not need a visa for travel to Peru of up to 183 days. For other countries, check visa requirements here. Your passport must be valid for at least six months prior to arrival in Peru. It is your own responsibility to ensure that you are in possession of valid and correct travel documentation.
Insider Tip: Always carry a copy of your passport on you (leave your original locked in your luggage). You may be required to show ID for credit card purchases.
There are no particular requirements for Peru, but make sure all routine vaccinations are up to date (MMR, polio, tetanus, etc.). Hepatitis A and Typhoid are recommended, and Zika is currently a risk in Peru. Check the latest information about Zika warnings. We recommend all vaccines be completed at least six weeks prior to travel. The quality of medical care in Lima is pretty high with 24-hour clinics and some doctors speaking English. You may, however, be required to pay cash for your services so familiarize yourself with your travel insurance process for making reimbursement claims. Altitude sickness can be a problem above 8,000 feet (2,500 meters), so inquire about altitude sickness pills before you arrive. They are often only available by prescription. With or without pills, be sure to stay hydrated.
Tap water in Peru is NOT safe to drink. If using your refillable water bottle, we recommend combining with a Steripen.
The safety of our clients is of the utmost importance to us, and our local experts are always well-informed about the current situation in Peru. For up-to-date information about safety, security and travel warnings, please refer to the US State Department, UK Foreign Travel Advice, or your local government resource.
Insider Tip: Don't carry large amounts of cash, and put your wallet in your front pocket or hold your purse in the front when in crowded areas.
Insider Tip: Taxis in Peru don't use meters so ALWAYS agree on the price in advance. Ask your hotel what a reasonable fare is between point A and point B so you know the going rate. Also, take a photo of your taxi vehicle number in case there are any issues. If there is no number, take a different taxi.
Most sockets use the US-style two-pronged (Type A) or European-style two-pronged (Type C). Power outages are not uncommon, especially outside of bigger cities, so a torch or flashlight is recommended.
At Better Places Travel, you book your own international flights. Your travel expert will gladly advise you on the best option. Read here for more information and tips.
When to go
Weather in Peru can vary dramatically depending on where you are; it may be freezing in the mountains and roasting on the coast. June to September (winter) is high season overall as it's the driest, so the mountains and jungle are best during these months. Lima gets very little rain year-round, but there is a dense fog (La Garua) that descends from about May to September, so January is a better bet for the coast. The jungle receives heavy rain from October to April, making it difficult to visit.
The official national language is Spanish. Here are some common phrases to get you started:
Hello = Hola
Goodbye = Adios (formal)
Chao/Ciao (informal)
Please = Por favor
Thank you = Gracias
Excuse Me = Perdón
Insider Tip: Peruvian Spanish has three regional dialects – Andean, Coastal and Amazonic (or mountain, coast and jungle).
Peru is a beautiful mix of Spanish and native cultures, known for their fine arts and crafts, from wood carvings to textiles to jewelry. Food also plays a large part with ceviche (raw seafood marinated in lime and chili) as one of its signature dishes. Lima is particularly known for its culinary excellence. Locals are not immune to tourists and it is very common for them to pose for you in colorful outfits, expecting a tip in exchange for a photo. Some even set up shop with baby goats, sheep and llamas to further tempt you. Be advised that if you do take a photo, they will expect some Soles in return. As with much of Latin America, Peruvians aren't exactly punctual, so arriving 30 minutes past the arranged time is often expected, and an hour isn't unheard of.
Insider Tip: Hora inglesa (English hour) is used to mean actual time, so if you're meeting a tour guide and you don't want him/her to be 30 minutes late, confirm the meeting time in hora inglesa.
The local currency is Peruvian Nuevo Sol (PEN).
Peruvian Soles are divided into 100 centimos. Counterfeit bills are a problem so always exchange money at a casa de cambio (money exchange) or bank, never on the street. Taxi drivers and street vendors don't often have a lot of change, so keep small bills on-hand and break larger ones whenever possible. ATMs are plentiful, and Peru is a largely cash-based society, although credit cards are accepted at many hotels and restaurants. US dollars are accepted in some places and easily exchangeable, so it is advisable to carry some with you. Other currencies may be more difficult to exchange.
Insider Tip: Don't accept torn or written-on bills as change; they will likely be rejected by vendors. If exchanging money, check each bill before you leave and ask to have any damaged ones replaced.
- Restaurants – At higher-end restaurants, 10% is standard; 15% for exceptional service. A 10% service charge is sometimes added, so check before tipping. At smaller restaurants, a tip isn't generally expected, but a few Soles is always appreciated.
- Cabs – No tipping, but you can round up the change if you want.
- Hotels – Tip bellmen 3 Soles per bag, and housekeeping 1-3 Soles per day
Read more about the Peruvian tipping culture here.
Insider Tip: If using a credit card in a restaurant or shop, make sure they bring the machine to your table. If the server takes your card from you, either ask them to run it at the table or follow them. Credit card fraud is not uncommon.
What you pack will depend on which region you visit. Casual clothes and comfortable shoes are appropriate for Lima and the coastal region, although you'll want something nicer for evening wear. Peruvians are generally conservative and don't show a lot of skin, so shorts, tank tops and flip flops are best saved for beach areas, although Lima is more forgiving. In the jungle, lightweight long sleeved shirts and pants are best to protect from the sun and mosquitoes. You'll also want a light jacket or poncho for the rain. In the mountains, including Machu Picchu, a sweater or jacket is a must; bring layers.
Insider Tip: Pick up some cold-weather necessities in Cusco—alpaca sweaters, gloves, ponchos and scarves are not only practical for the mountainous region, they also make great souvenirs.
Must-pack items countrywide:
- Comfortable shoes for city walking (closed-toe or sandals)
- Trail shoes or running shoes for the mountains and jungle
- "Going out" clothes for dining out in the city
- Sunscreen
- Mosquito repellant
- Sunglasses and hat
- Daypack for trekking
- Microfiber towel or sarong for beach-going
- Dry bags if taking electronics into the jungle
- Simple medical kit with over-the-counter drugs and first aid (including anti-diarrheal and stomach meds)
- Rehydration salts for possible altitude sickness or stomach issues
- Hand sanitizer or wet wipes
- All prescriptions
- Flashlight/torch for possible power outages
- Tissues in case toilet paper is unavailable
Insider Tip: Consider a solar USB charger for walking the Inca trail if you use your phone's camera or want some tunes to listen to on the way.

Most people are surprised to hear that I'm interested in things like computer games, and often even more surprised to find out I'm a sci-fi fan too. My favourite childhood shows were Star Trek and Deep Space 9 and I'd much rather watch Battlestar Galactica than a rom-com. When negotiating who got what after the break up of an old boyfriend I didn't mind if he got the TV and the furniture just as soon as I got the DS and all the games with it too.
It's funny that being interested in these kind of things is usually considered a bit surprising because I'm a girl.
Click below to read on (and win an iPad Mini!)
I suppose in the past few years my interests in games have been taken over quite a bit by blogging and being immersed in this world, which I think probably makes me just as geeky. I've had less time to play games since becoming a mum but I have to confess to owning a couple on my iPad.
I'm interested in girls in technology especially gaming as it's a world that is usually dominated by men. I was recently asked to play a new game on the market called 'Bake Escape' (I know, I have such a tough job right?). The idea behind the game is that the character 'Victoria Sponge' needs to get to Paris by completing puzzles. By moving and matching sugary cakes you can score points and complete levels to get you closer to your goal. I have to warn you, it's highly addictive!
The artist behind Bake Escape is 24 year old Becky Smout and I was interested in hearing what she said about the process and about being a girl in gaming.
You can download and try the game out here and you can win an iPad Mini by entering the below!

The culture war over abortion continues to heat up as a Planned Parenthood clinic in Columbia, Missouri, on Monday ceased providing abortion services. The clinic discontinued non-surgical abortions, which are induced using a pill, because one of the clinic's doctors is losing a crucial hospital privilege on December 1. According to state law in Missouri, doctors or clinics providing abortions must maintain agreements with local hospitals for patient care. The move now leaves just one clinic in the entire state that provides women with surgical and pill-induced abortions. It's in St. Louis. Women in the western part of Missouri who are seeking abortion services will now have to travel out of state to a Planned Parenthood clinic in Overland Park, Kansas. Supporters are planning a protest on November 30. This development is the latest skirmish in the war over abortion. Earlier this week, Planned Parenthood sued the state of Texas for blocking Medicaid reimbursements for Planned Parenthood services.

"Meanwhile, the three lumps under my arm were still there, and another little mass grew on my abdomen. I kept covering them with Swedish Bitter and cabbage leaves. The mass on my stomach disappeared after 2-3 months, but those under my arm didn't vanish.
Taking showers and feeling the mass growing was frightening. But I didn't want to talk about what was going on and I went on with my life the way it was. When I was feeling too tired, my body was just lingering on the bed and waiting to get some rest. After that, I would continue to write. Now when I look back, I see that writing was an engine from the Lord to keep me moving on and give me a sense of purpose.
God's humor was so unique to call me into a field where I was far from being perfect since English was my second language.
When I shared that "the Lord called me to write books in English," I was told that I should work what other people work and keep the writing as a hobby. That could have been a wise advice for many, but I knew I was called to do more than that.
I stumbled over this quote, "Follow your dreams. Or you'll spend the rest of your life working for someone who did."(1) What a statement! I knew I was doing what I was called to do.
Since I was young I had two passions: writing and teaching. I was an elementary and junior high teacher for many years and had already published a few books. My careers didn't pay much at that time and that's why so many can't afford to follow their passion like this. It involves somebody else's help, and leaning on God and not on your own performances while you have to pay your rent and bills. It involves wisdom, timing and the assurance that you do what you are called to do. I had no idea why I wasn't called to fit in a common box, because that would have been easy, instead of standing against the norm, like others said.
Some considered that trying to make a living as an author was too out of the line, and that was why I had to conform to society's norm the way everybody else did. That expectation was
pretty confusing for me because, growing up in a communist country, I was punished for using my gifts and talents. That society didn't even let me finish my education during the regime.
Now when I look back, I really believe that when some people tell you that you can't do something and that you would not make it, they are actually afraid that you would indeed make it."

In nearly every ERP Implementation Project, there is a sense of urgency to go-live. And why wouldn't there be? You just made a major capital investment in purchasing a new ERP Software System, and the sooner you use it, the sooner you will see results.
One of the main reasons that there is urgency to go-live is because 'Normal Business Flow' is interrupted during an implementation. The business needs to continue to operate, yet valuable time must be dedicated to the project, processes need improvement, operational efficiency is desired and you can't wait to get your new ERP system up-and-running. Perhaps, more importantly, management does not want to spend a penny more on consulting or on their own team's valuable time. Sometimes, even the implementation consultants want it to go-live sooner due to other projects that need their attention.
While these may all seem like reasonable motives to finish the project sooner, this mindset could be disastrous for your organization. The tendency in this situation is to take short cuts and deal with it later, and many have created a mountain of issues by succumbing to this temptation. All I can say is, "take the time to do it right, or don't do it!"
Over the years, I have seen several companies make this mistake and create a disaster. A few years ago, our company sold an ERP system to a Metal Stamping company. From the onset of the selection project they were disorganized and in a hurry. "We're growing," said the CEO, "and we need a new ERP system yesterday." They made a fairly quick decision to buy the ERP Software, and when they returned the signed agreements, they announced that they were going to 'Go Live' in a month- and they would do it themselvesbecause they had a few people that had implemented ERP systems before.
Do I even need to finish the rest of the story? Ever hear the phrase, 'Don't try to automate chaos?' Well it's true, you get out of it, what you put into it. After a couple months of partial system use, bad inventory numbers and no financial statements, they reverted back to their old ways and gave up on the new ERP software. "We were too busy to fix the issues and people stopped using it," commented the CEO. Well, 2 years later, yesterday is gone and this company continues to struggle to be competitive. The results of their implementation- and many others- is why you must take the time to do your ERP Project right.
Doing it right means that you should: ensure the project has a sufficient budget; a committed internal team; a realistic project schedule that includes ample time for prototyping and piloting; and finally, take the time to test, test, & test again before go-live.

Americans have made it clear: They don't want a lot of gimmicks in their TVs.
In an effort to improve sales, though, television makers have tried gimmicks anyway. They have praised 3-D TVs. They have promoted voice controls. And they have highlighted Internet-streaming interfaces.
None have really moved the needle. The latest big selling point — ultrahigh-definition displays, also known as 4K — also faces an uphill climb.
But unlike many of the gimmicks and features that have been tried in years past, 4K is one we will probably adopt. And with one name-brand 4K television available for $1,000, this could be the year that starts happening.
From a technical perspective, the term 4K refers to displays with twice the vertical resolution and twice the horizontal resolution of high-definition TVs. The UHD designation combines the higher pixel count of 4K with improvements to on-screen colors that make the on-screen picture brighter and more realistic. The terms are used fairly interchangeably, and most TV manufacturers tack on both.
There is no doubt that with the right video playing, 4K simply looks better than an HD TV. And history shows that better-looking televisions with bigger displays will win us over, as long as the price is right.
"Pretty simple message, right?" said Stephen Baker, head of hardware analysis at the retail research organization the NPD Group. "This is a better picture. Everything you watch, without your having to do anything, is going to look better."
He added: "I think it's clearly a sales catalyst, if only because it gives the TV brands and the retailers something to talk about that doesn't require them to explain a whole bunch of other weird things."
Ultrahigh definition, like high definition before it, seems to be the natural evolution of TV technology: a quality improvement that is prohibitively expensive at first and limited to televisions of unusual size but that soon becomes mainstream in smaller sets at lower prices.
According to the Consumer Electronics Association, it took six years of high definition TVs being on the market — from 2003 to 2009 — before 50 percent of American households had them. Now, nearly 90 percent of households have one.
The C.E.A. estimates that 800,000 ultrahigh-definition TVs will be sold in the United States in 2014, out of the 38.5 million total television sales. Mr. Baker said he did not expect big sales numbers anytime soon because 4K TVs will be large and expensive in the immediate future.
"The real revolution comes when we get better quality products in smaller screens," he said. "It's all dependent on, obviously, the costs."
For the last two years, electronics makers like Samsung, LG and Sony have been selling 4K televisions with huge screens and matching price tags.
Samsung has made the most aggressive push into ultrahigh definition. The company made headlines with its 85-inch TV with built-in stand, which retailed for $45,000 (it has since come down to $40,000). Smaller UHD TVs started at $5,500.
Sony announced 4K models in 2013 that cost $5,000 for 55 inches and $7,000 for 65 inches, and LG's prices have been similar.
But those prices have come down significantly in just a year. A 55-inch Sony 4K TV can now be found for $1,800; Samsung's feature-filled 65-inch 4K TV with a curved design and next-generation LED is a surprisingly tempting $2,800.
And Vizio, the budget-price electronics maker, has just introduced its P series line of ultrahigh-definition TVs that start at $1,000 for a 50-inch model. The TVs contain impressive display technology and do not represent a huge quality compromise despite their lower prices.
Mr. Baker said an offer like that is likely to have an effect.
"Vizio will change the market because people have a lot of trust in Vizio," he said, "and they're in a range of outlets that range from Walmart to Costco."
The adoption of 4K TVs will also depend on the programming available in the higher definition — a sort of chicken-and-egg situation. Without extensive 4K programming available, people have less incentive to buy the sets. And if few people buy them, there is less incentive to make videos in 4K.
So far, no channels are broadcasting in 4K, and very few DVDs come in 4K quality.
That means if you have such a television now, the video will probably have to be "upscaled" to match the higher resolution, a software process that tries to fill in missing pixels by guessing what they should look like. The results can be choppy.
Mark Coxon, a former high-end audio-video installer who writes about television technology, said upscaling often leads to blurry on-screen images, especially in scenes with a lot of movement.
"Obviously, more resolution is a good thing if we have the content to follow," he said, "but scaling has never been something that's been pretty."
More expensive 4K TVs will contain better technology for upscaling picture quality, he said, and some third-party manufacturers make expensive set-top boxes that can provide better scaling. But until more 4K programming is available, consumers may be in for a rude surprise when they watch high-definition TV on ultrahigh-definition sets.
More 4K programming is being made, though. Some movie studios are shooting films in 4K. And Sony is pushing video makers to 4K with its devices, selling professional and semiprofessional cameras that shoot in the higher-resolution format. The company has also released a $700 set-top box that stores and plays back 70 movie and TV titles to owners of next-generation sets.
A start-up, UltraFlix, is scanning older movies from 35 millimeter film and remastering them into 4K digital movies that stream on its app. The UltraFlix app is included on Sony and Vizio ultrahigh-definition TVs.
And Netflix streams some of Sony's movies and TV shows, and it is shooting some of its original series in 4K, including "House of Cards" and coming series like "Marco Polo."
"This is going to be the first format that will become popular first online, as a streaming format, versus a physical media format," said Cliff Edwards, a Netflix spokesman.
But streaming 4K has its own next-generation requirements. It requires Netflix's most expensive $12 a month plan and a pretty fast broadband connection — the movies have about twice the file size as regular high-definition movies. Consumers streaming a lot of those big files will also want to watch their data limits, if they have them.
As for that upscaled HD content, Mr. Coxon offers advice for shoppers who will face a wall of TVs this holiday shopping season, each showing crisp, perfect photographs, slow-moving images or animation.
Look at an HD TV and a 4K TV side-by-side and ask the store to put the same channel on both, he said. "If you like the 4K TV better, you'll like your choice."
And of course, wait for the holiday sales price, too. You will like your choice a lot more the less you have to pay.

Coreg Uses
Coreg uses include the treatment of congestive heart failure and high blood pressure. The medication can also be administered immediately after a heart attack to help improve survival and decrease the chance of another heart attack. Off-label Coreg uses include migraine prevention, hyperthyroidism treatment, and the relief of alcohol withdrawal symptoms. It may also be used to slow down the progression of aortic dilation in children with Marfan syndrome.
Coreg® (carvedilol) has been licensed to treat a number of conditions. These Coreg uses include:
- Treatment of high blood pressure
- Treatment of congestive heart failure
- Treatment following a heart attack to improve survival.
Coreg Uses for High Blood Pressure
A blood pressure reading consists of two numbers (for example, 120/80). The top number is known as the systolic blood pressure, and the bottom number is the diastolic blood pressure. High blood pressure (hypertension) is defined as an average blood pressure higher than 140/90 with multiple blood pressure readings.
Based on clinical studies, Coreg has been shown to significantly lower systolic and diastolic blood pressures. The higher the dose of Coreg, the greater the drop in blood pressure is expected to be. By lowering blood pressure, Coreg can also decrease the risks that often occur with long-term high blood pressure (see Effects of High Blood Pressure). Coreg does not, however, cure high blood pressure.

text: Trans Europe Express (TEE) was the name for a network of luxury domestic and international express trains in Europe, which started in 1957. The concept was devised by F.Q. den Hollander, former president of the Dutch Railways. For use of the trains was a special surcharge verschuldigd.De design was a network of fast, cross day trains to create, that the head should provide the emerging competition from aviation. Profit rate would be achieved by handling of border controls and customs formalities in the train, and by the use of trains, thus setting back to headend took less time and the changing of locomotives at borders was not necessary. The TEEs had only first-class coaches. Some trains have special facilities such as secretarial services, a hairdresser and a shop. These facilities were usually short-lived. There was to obtain a uniform color in red and yellow. However, there have also driven carriages in blue and light yellow color. A number of countries had special services for the TEE trains build. Netherlands and Switzerland did this together. The head shape of these trains was designed in 1954 by Elsebeth of Blerkom.

Our industry is starting to go through a transformational shift and we intend to lead it. As talent becomes the main differentiator between failure and success, organizations must attract, engage and develop their people more than ever. To do so, they need powerful and sophisticated tools that take the pain out of HR management and empower employees & people leaders. That is where we come in.
As our Application Architect you are going to lead multiple teams building applications on top of our state-of-the-art platform, as well as influence the future direction of the platform. It's not a classic R&D leader role, but more of a cross-functional mix of Business Analysis, Development, Product and UX with people leadership and technology curiosity at its core.You should join if you are:
- High velocity and hands-on:
The type of person who can't sit still and instantly goes after the next idea or opportunity, brings it to the team or does it themselves, as long as it gets done quickly and with high quality.
Love getting product to market more than any specific technology:
We use the Lifion platform to build applications (think rules-engine on steroids), which allows us to create applications with extreme pace and limited code, but also comes with some limitations that we can improve by coordinating with the platform teams.
An energizer & people leader:
We are a fast growing team and are looking for leaders who will help us energize and lead--not from authority, but with inspiration and knowledge.
- A product delivery leader and strong problem solver:
We are building applications while developing our next-gen platform. We are basing the way we architect and build applications on CS fundamentals, but are innovating to continue to accelerate and allow for federated development across the globe.
- We are building ADP's next big business and have the agility of a startup with the resources of a fortune 500, which you can leverage and grow based on our compelling applications and vision that you will help define and execute.
- Our industry is changing and so is how we build applications. Together with Lifion's leadership team, you will have the ability to shape your role and your team; the opportunity for growth is only limited by your ability to execute and drive results.
- Architect and oversee the foundation of HCM applications and their development
- Ensure software and solutions are stable and scalable
- Coordinate with teams across the entire program to ensure alignment with developers' needs
- Mentor and train application developers
- Act as a focal point for best practices
- Collaborate with UX and Product on cross functional teams
- Gather and present requirements for new features
- Break down barriers to development progress
- Present progress to stakeholders
- 10+ years of experience with full cycle application development (Full SDLC experience: architecture, design, development, delivery, etc.)
- Hands on experience with modern JavaScript (I,e, node, react, redux) is preferred
- Experience managing at least one product development team (several preferred)
- Experience in an iterative, Agile environment
- Cross-functional familiarity with Product Management and UX
- Strong CS and product development fundamentals (design patterns, database schema design, data modeling, API design and considerations, design by promise, quality concepts including TDD & BDD approaches)

Hello lovely! Reading this has inspired me to write my own how much is my face worth and I'm glad because my current ideas just weren't wowing me! I'd love to ask how you take your photos? Like what you're using and are you using a marble sheet or is that just a really nice table??? - Maria | BeautyMattersReplyDeleteReplies
Oh girl I wish I could afford a marble table! It's just a sheet of sticky back plastic from eBay, only cost me a fiver! xDelete

Effective 1 August 2017, Jörg Seyffart (49) will be appointed to the Messe Frankfurt Extended Board of Management as Chief of Finance. He will take over this position, together with overall responsibility for all financial areas, from his predecessor Klaus Münster-Müller, who is to retire after 29 years at the leading trade fair organiser.
As Chief of Finance, Jörg Seyffart will be responsible for the Group's financial controlling worldwide. As a member of the Extended Board of Management, he will – in addition to Subsidiary Management / Mergers & Acquisitions and the research functions – assume responsibility for Finance & Accounting and Corporate Controlling. Seyffart, a trained bank official and economics graduate, has been with Messe Frankfurt since 2010.
In addition to relevant knowledge about Group companies, he has many years of international experience to his credit.
Effective 1 September 2017, Dr. Guido Kaupe (54) will be at the helm of both the Finance & Accounting and Corporate Controlling divisions within the area of Finance at Messe Frankfurt. He has a wealth of experience in a variety of positions in Controlling and Finance & Accounting, particularly with regard to developing and implementing efficient accounting structures and processes.
Dr. Kaupe, who has a doctorate in business administration, previously worked at Fraport AG, where he held a number of managerial positions in the area of Accounting from 2000 onwards, most recently as Head of Controlling in one of the company's operational divisions. Between 2006 and 2011, he was also Managing Director of Energy Air GmbH, Fraport AG's energy procurement and distribution subsidiary responsible for serving Frankfurt Airport. Prior to this, Dr. Kaupe held positions at Mannheim University and Mainz University and at Deutsche Post AG.
In his functions, Dr. Kaupe will report to Jörg Seyffart. The Chief of Finance will report to the Messe Frankfurt Executive Board, namely to President and CEO Wolfgang Marzin.
With regard to the new appointment, Wolfgang Marzin commented: "We firmly believe that we have made excellent choices. With his many years of experience, Dr. Guido Kaupe is ideally suited to assist us with forthcoming decisions about the future orientation of the Group. And with Jörg Seyffart, we have a proven expert who is capable of taking the highly successful work of his predecessor to the next level. During his decades of service for Messe Frankfurt, Klaus Münster-Müller performed sterling work in structuring financial processes in line with the internationalisation of the Group."
Background information on Messe Frankfurt
Messe Frankfurt is the world's largest trade fair, congress and event organiser with its own exhibition grounds. With some 2,400 employees at 30 locations, the company generates annual sales of over €640 million. Thanks to its far-reaching ties with the relevant sectors and to its international sales network, the Group looks after the business interests of its customers effectively. A comprehensive range of services – both onsite and online – ensures that customers worldwide enjoy consistently high quality and flexibility when planning, organising and running their events. The wide range of services includes renting exhibition grounds, trade fair construction and marketing, personnel and food services.

About Build House
The Build House is an innovative community based home in Berkeley for children and teens with significant developmental disabilities. We believe that every person, regardless of ability, has the right to make choices in their lives. We model an alternative to institutional care.
The Build House came about as a collaboration between family members of young people with developmental disabilities, professionals who serve them, and interested community members. We received our 501(c)3 designation in 1997. After almost 10 years of start up fundraising and grass roots organizing, we opened our doors in 2001. We worked with a local architect, himself a person with a disability, to retrofit a 1880's West Berkeley Victorian cottage into a universally accessible home for 6 residents, complete with 2 full wheelchair access restrooms.
Who We Serve
All our residents come from very low income backgrounds and historically minority populations in the East Bay: several have single parents, elderly parents, or are wards of the court. Our children and young adults are primarily non-verbal with significant developmental delays, including impaired vision, hearing, and behavioral and emotional challenges. All also have health conditions that include paralysis, spastic quadriplegia and seizure disorders that require 24 hour trained care and monitoring. Despite their challenging disabilities, Build's residents are commonly seen shopping on 4 St, using the Berkeley public library, swimming at Berkeley pools and the YMCA, eating at local restaurants, seeing movies, and generally utilizing community resources and enjoying the various activities available in our wonderful city.
Our Community
Since opening, we have overcome numerous challenges as our state continues to place low priority on care for people with disabilities. Build House is primarily funded by Medi-Cal, however, in recent years, budget cut after budget cut has forced us to rely even more heavily on fundraising. Since we cannot afford a professional development director, volunteer board members are responsible for raising funds. Last year, we raised an astounding $64,000 in private donations and grants, and secured a $15,000 grant from CDBG, federal block grant money (the City of Berkeley). We have been able to grow and maintain our facility while many private facilities are closing their doors. And we have continued to provide ever changing care to our youth as they transition to adulthood- adapting and increasing staff ratios, forming relationships with UC Berkeley to grow our volunteer program and help with fundraising, and finding creative solutions to the long standing problem of caring for our most needy with the least amount of resources developed by the state upon their behalf.
The Future
Currently, we are still the only East Bay non-profit providing residential care as a licensed Intermediate Care Facility-Developmentally Disabled Habilitative ICF-DDH (a State of California Dept. of Health Services designation.) Our organization's 5 year plan to open a second home for adults has been delayed by the current economic crisis, however, we are looking forward to growing our program and giving more children and adults (and their families) with severe developmental disabilities the option to direct their own life and live freely in their own community.

And by "Lab Rats" I mean generous, heroic, courageous individuals (of course). If that sounds like you, or embodies characteristics that you aspire to, read on…
I'm looking for approximately 10 helpful people who are willing to read up to the first 5 chapters of Vengeance Will Come, my first novel.
All I'm looking for is an answer to 1-3 simple questions:
- 1) "Did you make it?" Under normal circumstances (i.e. you just picked this book up of a shelf) would you continue reading, or did you put the book down in boredom before reaching the end of the 5th chapter?
- If you didn't make it to the end:
- 2a) Where did you stop?
- 2b) Any particular reason why?
Easy, right?
Ideally I'm looking for people who enjoy reading (adult level). In terms of genre, it's a 'light' fantasy/scifi adventure. (* Previous beta readers exempted; I need fresh blood, and, hopefully, a consensus).
At an average reading pace I can tell that will be approximately 30 minute reading time. You could help me realise my dreams in spending a morning commute reading. I'd be very appreciative, especially if you're willing to answer any follow up questions I might have (not required).
If you're interested please contact me on [my-first-name].[my-last-name]@internode.on.net (after replacing the bracketed bits), or post a comment below with your contact details.
Naturally I'd request that you don't send it onto anyone else. (Under Australian law the mere fact I wrote it makes it copyrighted, which is nice).
I'll fire back an email, and then all you need is a cup of tea or coffee and somewhere comfy to sit…

This includes the rental of a specially designed river tube, a personal flotation device (life jacket), a shuttle bus ride from the take-out point to the starting point, and all the sun and fun you can pack into your ride. You can tube again the same day for an additional $10.00.
Always call the day you are coming for hours, times, conditions.
Days, hours, times, subject to change without notice.
The daily hours do change depending on many factors including but not limited to; weather conditions, river conditions, and the time of year.
The daily hours are the earliest and latest times you can enter the river to start. There are no exceptions. Allow yourself enough travel time to get here with enough time to sign up, pay, and start by the designated latest start time.
A deposit is required for rental. Your car keys are preferred so you don't lose them in the river and we have numbered key hooks to hang them on. You can also leave a drivers license, I.D. or something similar that will fit in a snack sized bag and hang on our numbered key hooks.
