Melbourne, Australia
Behaviour Driven Development's appeal and benefits are legion. To get the most out of the approach you need the proper tooling. I will explore how you can use SpecFlow and Selenium to test your system end to end while not losing focus of business requirements throughout. You will see how much value this can add to your software development practice and why many people use this combo. I will touch on the benefits of BDD and dive into some code samples to showcase the workflow during the presentation.
First delivery @ SeleniumDay 2018 - https://1point21gws.com/selenium/melbourne
Patterns are all around us, and in software, the design patterns we choose can give us the power of the ancient kings and queens. Event Sourcing is based on the idea that storing events as they happen is better than storing the current state. Imagine having the power to rewind and replay events, to debug, to generate reporting, to go back to ancient history...
We'll get up close and personal with Command Query Responsibility Segregation (CQRS), which gives us the bonus of scalability out of the box, we'll be designing and architecting applications at scale, just like the grand cities of the past, in no time at all!
First Delivery @ LevelsConf2018- https://www.levelsconf.com/
There has never been more emphasis in security than in the modern environment of distributed computing and increased sharing of data. Our data does not sit inside silos consumed by one application anymore. In this context the modern distributed applications need to securely access protected resources without having to share passwords. We need scalable solutions that work with things like single page applications. We will dive in and explore terms like `OAuth`, `OpenIdConnect` and `JWT` and how they relate to authentication and authorisation. This presentation hopes to give you a good understanding of what, where and how to get started with the modern approaches to authentication.
In my experience most software developers don't have a good understanding of why protocols like OAuth and OpenIdConnect exist. What type of problems they solve and what flow to pick to solve their problems. Most of all they lack the knowledge of the compromises they make when they choose a authentication flow. Because these authentication flows are abstracted away in most implementations, the novice developers don't get exposed to the nuts and bolts. There are more and more compromises that happen because someone doesn't follow the security best practice or pick the wrong tool for the job. My motivation is to transfer some of my knowledge to young developers so they make an informed choice when the opportunity presents itself.
As we build distributed highly scalable systems the central data store and transactions are no longer a safety net we can afford. In the world of event sourcing and CQRS (Command Query Responsibility Segregation) we need to design clever systems that don't show cracks and seams where eventual consistency is at play. We will tackle those unpleasant invariants and race conditions head on to investigate some technical and non technical smoke and mirror solutions that we can use to deliver a positive experience to end-users while finding the performance sweetspot.
We are utilizing the various PaaS/Serverless solutions to build more and more distributed systems. Often these systems need to work together to produce a result. When performance and scalability is of high priority, consistency (CAP theorem) takes a back seat. We still need to find ways to shelter the end-user from these design realities. The aim of this talk is to find ways of doing it. Be it through changing the business process or by doing clever tricks on the front end while giving the backend has a heartbeat to catch up. There are countless ways to do it. My goal is to investigate a few of them and get the conversations happening.
Microservices aren't new but the last few years have certainly seen a lot of successful implementations of the pattern. The promise of high scalability has attracted engineering teams to it like moths to a flame. There are plethora of benefits but they are accompanied by an ever growing set of technical and nontechnical pitfalls. As the shininess of microservices gradually decline, there are important lessons to learn from our scars. We will look at why microservices implementation fail, How to avoid the pitfalls and most importantly whether you need to ditch your trusty monolith after all.

Overall Goal
The overall goal of the TN on Arctic Economic Science is to promote research that improve the knowledge of how the diverse changes in the Arctic affect opportunities and constraints of existing populations and the potential for economic growth/change, and thereby extend and improve the knowledge base for informed policy advice. The TN will further emphasize an experimental methodological approach in accordance with principles adhered to by the Economic Science Association (ESA). More institutions in the Arctic should be interested in doing social science experimental research as many institutions recently have begun to do outside the Arctic. A goal of the TN is to facilitate the transfer of knowledge necessary to get started. This goal may have immediate intrinsic value to the receiving institutions both in terms of enabling the use of experiments for educational purposes and giving a head start for doing own research, in addition to contributing to the overall goal in the long term.
Main Activities
Main activities in the short run are related to identifying research issues for joint projects and possible funding possibilities, and develop project proposals for applications. By bringing together institutions from different parts of the Arctic World, there is a range of potential benefits. The possible sources for funding increase, the general interest of the research is likely to be greater, cultural and language specific barriers to data collection from several countries are removed, international knowledge exchange within the network is facilitated, and a wider dissemination of results outside the research community is more easily obtainable.
To facilitate research cooperation, the TN plans on meeting physically on at least two occasions annually during international conferences and host workshops and organize sessions for paper presentations whenever appropriate. In addition, efforts are undertaken to ensure mobility among the partner institutions on a bilateral basis.
Current and Planned Activities
- Coordinated attendance at the 37th Remote Regions and Northern Development Sessions organized by Professor Protasel (UAA) as part of the 58th annual meeting of the Western Regional Science Association. The location is in Napa, California on February 10-13, 2019. Send abstracts until October, 15 to Greg J. Protasel email@example.com. More information in the attached pdf.
- Coordinated attendance at the 20th April International Academic Conference on Economic and Social Development, hosted by National Research University Higher School of Economics (HSE) with the support of the World Bank. Professor Aleskerov, HSE and TNAES, will organize a special track of sessions on Arctic issues as he did in April 2018. The Call for abstracts can be seen in the attached pdf with a deadline to November, 12, 2018.
- Student and faculty mobility between HSE and UiT (Society and advanced technology in the Arctic – a 3 year PhD field course just started, financial support from SIU)
- Extension of partners – first priority on bringing in an institution from Asia (North America, Euope and Russia already represented)
- Continued efforts to secure long term funding of research projects, preferably involving all partner institutions
Past Activities
- Student and faculty mobility between UAA and UiT (HNPla-2014/10050 - Conflict and cooperation in the High North – an experimental approach, financial support from SIU)
- Coordinated attendance (financially supported by UiT) at ICASS IX Umea June 2017, organizing a session on Experimental Approaches to Human Behavior (Session 17.20)
- Student and faculty mobility between HSE and UiT (HNPla-2016/10109 - High North Economics: Learning how economists work and think in Russia and Norway using theoretical models and laboratory experiments, financial support from SIU)
- TNAES meetings with Canadian TNAES partners at Université Laval in Ville de Quebec in November 2017, financial support from UiT
- Coordinated attendance (financially supported by UiT) at the 36th Remote Regions and Northern Development Sessions organized by American TNAES partners at UAA as part of the 57th annual meeting of the Western Regional Science Association in Pasadena in February 2018
- Coordinated attendance (financially supported by UiT) at the 19th April International Academic Conference on Economic and Social Development in 2018, hosted by National Research University Higher School of Economics (HSE) with the support of the World Bank. Professor Aleskerov, HSE and TNAES, organized a special track of sessions on Arctic issues.

Oh dear. A pilot in Elite Dangerous has fallen for a cheeky prank. Commander SpeedyBebop undertook a six-hour journey to Hutton orbital (a remote space station orbiting 0.22 lightyears from its parent star) after hearing that a free Anaconda awaited anyone who travelled there. This is one of the space sim's most expensive and powerful ships. But when he arrived, he discovered the whole thing was a ruse. There was no Anaconda. And it turns out he's not the first one to fall for this prank – it has become a running joke among Elite's pilots.

Listen to this article
If Munster get nothing else from this season's Heineken Cup, they are likely to be remembered as the answer to a quiz question: which team played consecutive matches in the same competition on the same ground, the first time as home team, the second as visitors?
A hard-won quarter-final victory over Perpignan at Lansdowne Road, Dublin, earned them Sunday's all-Irish semi-final clash with Leinster at the same venue.
"Home" is in this case a relative concept. Leinster use the venerable national ground only for the knock-out stages of the Heineken, and have unhappy memories of three defeats in four matches, including semi-finals against Cardiff in 1996 and Perpignan three years ago.
It has been their away form that has caught the eye this season – demolishing Bath at the Recreation Ground in the final pool round to clinch a best runners-up spot in the quarters, then eliminating holders and favourites Toulouse in one of the best matches in the Heineken's 11-season history. On that form they might even have fancied their chances at Munster's Thomond Park fortress.
Wherever it happens, this is one of the classic rugby rivalries. This is their first Heineken meeting, but the fixture dates back to 1877. It is capital versus province, centre against periphery, with a strong element of class warfare thrown in.
The cultural difference between the two is epitomised by key events in the formative years of Irish nationhood - the recently commemorated romantic nationalism of Dublin's Easter Rising of 1916 compared to the harder-edged radicalism of the Limerick Soviet which took over Munster's rugby hotbed for three weeks in 1919.
Leinster encompasses Ireland's wealthiest and most populous districts, but in some rugby another respect trail both respects they trail Munster. and Ulster. The latter Both have their shining hours of triumph on which to build both memory and legend: Ulster's extraordinary Heineken victory of 1999 and. the overthrow of the grand-slam All Blacks in 1978, and their status asUlster drew with the 1935 and 1953 All Blacks as well,. the Heineken's romantic heroes, pursuing an as-yet unrequited quest that has taken them to the last four six times in seven seasons.
Leinster will reach the final not have long to wait if they can recapture the form shown in Toulouse, but it will be a surprise if they are allowed to. If the glory of Leinster on that day was that they challenged Toulouse at their own expansive game, the glory of Toulouse is that they accept such challenges. Shutting the game down and imposing themselves physically is an option they do not take.
Munster are unlikely to be so disposed, particularly when the absence of centre John Murphy deprives them of the new-found midfield incisiveness displayed in the pool stage. Tough-minded pragmatists, they would be rash to accept a loose, open contest against a Leinster back division featuring Brian O'Driscoll, Gordon D'Arcy and Shane Horgan, perhaps the most improved three-quarter in Europe.
Leinster's battle will be to escape the clutches of the Munster pack. They will need Keith Gleeson in the sensational form of Toulouse, and Malcolm O'Kelly stealing more than his share of line-out ball, if they are to perform the necessary outflanking.
Bath, the only surviving past winners, face Biarritz today sat) in San Sebastian, most formidable of Heineken homes from home. They are unlikely to find the Basques, who are desperate to reach the final after consecutive losses in the semi-finals and perhaps the most accomplished all-round team left, as accommodatingly inept as Leicester were in the last round.
Logic says a Munster versus Biarritz final, but it is worth remembering that it also said Bath and Leinster would lose their quarter-finals.

Islam was founded on 'stealing' in the name of Allah.
Answering Muslims Just when you thought all the stealing was done, Muslims are now stealing quotations from famous Christian authors and using them for Islam. The photo below shows the plagiarized Islamic version of a famous quote by C. S. Lewis: "I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else."
Muhammad used to support his religion by robbing the Meccan caravans, and he encouraged people to join his religion in exchange for a share of the spoils of war. Muhammad and his followers stole food, women, land—whatever they could get. Muhammad stole the Kaaba and the Black Stone from the pagans of Mecca, and made them part of his religion. Muhammad stole a variety of stories from Christians and Jews (stories that are now part of the Qur'an), he stole the Shahada from the Sabians, and he stole his view of a hedonistic paradise (complete with houris) from the Persians.

"Go congratulate someone and see how they react. How did you feel the last time you were congratulated for something you did? We create an environment of celebrating others success versus boasting about our own. We find more can be accomplished when people feel celebrated for the achievements they have accomplished. Most settings belittle achievement with a great focus on the next task. The best way we can put it is, ' We will never execute the task and execute the person.' Our sense of enjoyment and passion for what we do will outweigh the other."

If you don't like boats and airplanes, you'd better not live on an island, right? Well, this developer disagrees. Xavier lives on Madeira – an island of flowers, banana plantations and recently famous for erecting a statue of footballer Cristiano Ronaldo that barely even resembles its model. Xavier may be one of the seniors at madewithlove, but he's still driven by a hunger for all things new and he loves building modern applications on solid grounds. From time to time, he will trade in this solid ground for some diving to explore the ocean's wonders. Perhaps this could also be interpreted as an attempt to escape the island?
Q: What's your favourite time of day?
Late at night, when everyone else is asleep. You have all night and the opportunities seem endless!
Q: What was the first thing you bought with your own money?
With cash from my first job, I got a Sony MiniDisc player. It was a pretty cool thing, at the time :-).

If you need expert legal advice in relation to garden leave, Slater and Gordon Lawyers are here to help.
Get in touch with our employment law solicitors by calling on freephone 0808 175 8000 or make a query online and we'll be happy to get back to you.
Garden leave (or gardening leave as it's sometimes known) is a term used to describe the period when an employee spends part or all of their notice period away from the workplace. This sometimes happens when an employee hands in their resignation, or is asked to leave by their employer, who prefers that they stay away from the office. It is different to being suspended from duty pending an investigation, although in both cases, you remain employed during this period.
People who are put on garden leave by their employers usually continue to receive pay and benefits as normal, but they are generally also subject to certain additional restrictions. For example, they may be forbidden to contact colleagues, suppliers or clients, and also usually asked to return company property such as phones, computer equipment and company vehicles.
To some, garden leave may seem a little unnecessary, since it is paying people not to do any work. After all, why not simply let a person who's resigned work their notice and then leave? However, some employers have very good reasons for wanting to keep a person on the payroll but away from the office. Common scenarios for using garden leave include:
If it's against the company's interests to have an employee work their full notice period, the company can protect itself by putting the employee on garden leave.
Your rights in relation to garden leave will very much be affected by the exact terms of your contract of employment. Anyone who's placed on garden leave can expect pay and benefits as normal, but they'll also need to abide by the restrictions placed on them - for example, not contacting clients, returning company devices and property - by their employer.
As an employee of the company, you're still bound by the restrictions of your employment contract while on garden leave. This means that although you're not likely to be expected to work - although you may be called back to work at any time - you may need to be available to be contacted by your employer and cannot accept another offer of employment. However, you can still look for other jobs if you wish.
Garden leave isn't always straightforward, especially when it comes to your rights as an employee. Examples of complexities that can arise in relation to garden leave include the following:

William Byron
|2018 Season
|Track Career
TALLADEGA RECAP: While William Byron ended up entangled in "The Big One," a multiple-car incident with less than 25 laps to go at Talladega Superspeedway last Sunday, the NASCAR Cup Series rookie had a solid race up to that point, leading 14 laps in his first Cup race at the 2.66-mile oval and earning stage points in the second segment. So far this season, Byron has led 31 laps across four different venues ranging from short tracks to superspeedways, which ranks him fourth among Chevrolet drivers and 14th among Cup drivers overall.
AXALTA RETURNS: Axalta returns as the primary partner of the No. 24 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 this weekend at Dover International Speedway. Following Dover, the bright Axalta flames, designed by well-known motor sports artist Sam Bass, will next appear as the primary on the No. 24 Chevy at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in July. In 2018, Axalta will be a primary partner on the No. 24 Chevrolet Camaro for a total of 10 races.
MONSTER MILE STATS: While Byron will make his first Cup start at Dover International Speedway this weekend, the 20-year-old driver has experienced success at the one-mile oval in the other NASCAR national series. In his first NASCAR Xfinity Series race at the track nicknamed the "Monster Mile," Byron finished sixth and scored an Xfinity Dash 4 Cash win. Last fall, he earned the pole for the Xfinity race and led 62 laps before finishing third. The Charlotte, North Carolina, native also has one start at the concrete oval in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series in 2016, where he won the pole, led 80 laps and finished 11th.
TOUGH TRACK: Byron's past success at the "Monster Mile" will help, but winning a race there is no easy feat – there have only been two first-time winners at Dover in Cup Series history – Martin Truex Jr. (2007) and Jody Ridley (1981), although Jimmie Johnson won twice at the one-mile oval during his rookie season in 2002. However, three Hendrick Motorsports drivers finished in the top three in both Dover races in their rookie seasons – Johnson (2002), Kyle Busch (2005) and Chase Elliott (2016).
ALL-STAR RACE VOTING: Voting is now open for the 2018 All-Star Race. As a Cup rookie, Byron isn't locked into the All-Star Race…yet. He has three chances to race his way in from the Open qualifying race by winning one of the three stages, and another opportunity by receiving the fan vote. Fans can vote once per day and votes shared via Facebook or Twitter count double, making sharing on social media a key component. Fans can vote for Byron at NASCAR.com/fanvote until 11:59 p.m. ET on Friday, May 18. The winner will be announced immediately following the conclusion of the Open qualifying race on Saturday, May 19.
William Byron on racing at Dover:
"I like Dover; it's been a good track for me. I ran really well there last year (in the NASCAR Xfinity Series) – we won the Dash 4 Cash in the spring, and then qualified on the pole and finished third in the playoff race. I think I led most of the (NASCAR Camping World) Truck race there as well. Dover's been a good track for Hendrick Motorsports too with Jimmie (Johnson) winning as many times as he has there. It's a very abrasive, very physical track, but it seems like it's always fun because you can move around and really be aggressive. It's similar to Bristol in that way, but you can drive the car even harder at Dover. I'll just try to trust my instincts there and go do what I've always done."

Albuquerque Residents Join LUNG FORCE Walk to Support Lung Cancer Patients, Raise Funds for Lung Cancer Research
American Lung Association's LUNG FORCE initiative aims to raise awareness about lifesaving lung cancer screening during Lung Cancer Awareness Month
(November 1, 2017) -
To kickoff Lung Cancer Awareness Month in November, the American Lung Association in New Mexico will host its fourth annual LUNG FORCE Walk to support lung cancer patients on Saturday, Nov. 4 at Hoffmantown. Lung cancer is the nation's leading cause of cancer deaths, and this year 1,010 New Mexico residents will be diagnosed with the disease.
The LUNG FORCE Walk will feature interactive education areas, family games and activities and inspiring stories of hope. Walkers will also be raising funds for lung disease research, education and advocacy. Registration and activities began at 9 a.m.
"Lung cancer is the leading cancer killer of women in America, but alarmingly few women see lung cancer as a threat to them personally," said Terry Huertaz, executive director of the American Lung Association in New Mexico. "The reality is that anyone can get lung cancer, yet lung cancer has been in the shadows for decades. This simply must change. We invite everyone in the Albuquerque area to join us and rally with friends, neighbors and colleagues to raise our voices together against lung cancer."
The LUNG FORCE Walk will honor and recognize some of Albuquerque's LUNG FORCE Heroes, including Mikey Padillia, whose mother, Sharon Hafer, lives with lung cancer and depends on advancements in research and treatments. Padillia walks in honor of his mother and to bring awareness to lung cancer.
"It's important for people to see this horrible disease as more than just stats and numbers," Padilla said. "I walk to bring a face and name – my mother's – to the forefront of the fight against cancer and to show people lung cancer can impact anyone."
One reason why lung cancer is so deadly is because by the time you have symptoms, it may already have spread and become more difficult to treat. Lung cancer screening with a low-dose CT scan is a powerful tool to diagnose lung cancer in individuals who are at high risk at an early stage, when it is much more likely to be curable. An estimated 9 million Americans are considered at high risk for lung cancer, and if only half of those at high risk were screened, more than 15,000 could be saved. Despite the lifesaving potential of screening, 84 percent of those who qualify are unfamiliar with the low-dose CT scan, according to the American Lung Association's 4th annual Lung Health Barometer.
To raise awareness about lung cancer screening, the American Lung Association's LUNG FORCE initiative has partnered with the Ad Council to launch the "Saved By The Scan" public awareness campaign – urging everyone to learn more about lung cancer screening.

June 14, 2019
A mom in the United Kingdom took her son to an after-hours clinic after noticing a red streak on his wrist and elbow—and it ultimately prevented what could've been a devastating situation.
Alexandra Ruddy's 8-year-old had fallen at the zoo about a week prior, she shared on Facebook along with a photo of her son's red wrist. Although she made sure to clean the wounds and they didn't appear infected, she noticed he developed "red tracking" near the injuries as they headed to the beach one day.
"I took him down to the out of hours feeling a bit silly but when the doctor saw it he commended me on [recognizing] it and getting down ASAP," Ruddy wrote in the post that has now been shared more than 40,000 times.
As it turns out, her son's wound led to sepsis, a blood infection that can be life-threatening. "It isn't something you can 'leave' until Monday when the doctors are back in the office," she added.
Luckily her son is recovering with antibiotics, but Ruddy said she hopes her post can help others who may not be aware how serious marks like her son had can be.
They are also pretty common. "That kind of infection where it spreads up into the body like that and causes a red streak, we see with reasonable frequency; it is a sign of a bacterial infection that's spreading into the body, and that could potentially turn into sepsis," says Anne F. Brayer, M.D., who is board certified in pediatric emergency medicine. "Sepsis is really defined by an overwhelming infection that goes over what the body's defenses can handle."
The condition can progress quickly and lead to tissue damage, organ failure, and death without timely treatment, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). People with weakened immune systems, children under 1 years old, adults 65 and older, and people with chronic medical conditions are most at risk.
Common symptoms of sepsis include a high heart rate, fever (usually high but no absolutes), altered mental status (child is not as responsive as usual or seems weak or lethargic), extreme pain, shortness of breath, clammy skin, and low blood pressure. Sometimes a rash can appear all over body, or a rash that looks like little bruises known as petechiae, adds Dr. Brayer, a professor of emergency medicine, pediatrics, and the center for community health at the University of Rochester School of Medicine in Rochester, New York.
Sepsis can occur from bacteria entering the bloodstream from a number of ways, including a bacterial infection in the intestines like salmonella. Wounds are another way and with kids always running around it's easy to begin to worry. But there are things parents can do. Dr. Brayer says they should make sure to keep the injury clean. They should also monitor the area to see if the skin around the cut is getting more red, if streaks start appearing, or the redness begins to spread. Also pay attention if your child complains that the pain is getting worse.
"Those are all signs [a child needs] to be seen, and promptly, like at an urgent care or an emergency department if your doctor's office isn't open," she says.

District 5280 Celebrates RI Foundation Centennial
Posted by Michael S. Turner, M.S.
District 5280 Celebrates RI Foundation Centennial
The Rotary International Foundation is the $1 billion charitable arm of Rotary. To mark the centennial, Rotary aims to raise $300 million by July 2017 for its campaign to eradicate polio and for service in communities around the world. The District has completed many project through the assistance of the Foundation including a mobile mammogram truck in India, clean water in Niger, dental services in Colombia, and 1,000 stoves with proper vents in Guatemala.
The Foundation was established in 1917 with a donation of $26.50 and is dedicated to advancing world understanding, goodwill, and peace. Arch Klumph (photo: below left) is called the father of the Foundation because he had the vision of a Rotary endowment fund and the dedication to bring this dream to life.
As president of the Rotary Club of Cleveland, Ohio, in 1913, he advocated for the club to build a reserve that would ensure its means to do future good work. As president of Rotary International in 1916-17, he proposed this idea to a larger audience.
In his speech to the 1917 convention in Atlanta, he said: "It seems eminently proper that we should accept endowments for the purpose of doing good in the world, in charitable, educational or other avenues of community progress …"
Arch's vision of an endowment would eventually become The Rotary Foundation, and his call for "doing good in the world" was to become the Foundation's motto. But it would take some time for all of that to happen.
Through grants and other resources, Rotary members develop sustainable projects that promote peace, fight disease, provide clean water, support education, save mothers and children, and grow local economies.
Rotary's top priority is the global eradication of polio. Rotary launched its polio immunization initiative, PolioPlus, in 1985 and in 1988 became a leading partner in the Global Polio Eradication Initiative along with the World Health Organization (WHO), the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and more recently, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
Rotary has contributed more than $1.5 billion and countless volunteer hours to eradicate polio. Through 2018, every dollar Rotary commits to polio eradication will be matched 2-to-1 by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, up to $35 million a year. Since the initiative began, the incidence of polio has plummeted by more than 99.9 percent, from about 350,000 cases a year to less than 71 confirmed in 2015.
Through the Foundation, Rotary members find satisfaction in serving others. The Foundation offers countless opportunities for all members, alumni, and their friends to do good in their communities and in the world — and to make a real, life-changing difference for people in need.
And because of the Foundation, people around the world recognize Rotary as an agent of positive change in the world.
There are many ways that you can improve lives today and build a better future though Rotary:
- Work with an international partner club to develop a project in one of Rotary's six areas of focus and apply for a global grant
- Participate in or support your club or district's grant projects
- Contribute to the Foundation to ensure it can continue to do good in the world for many years to come

High 10 FSBO Ideas To Promoting Your House By Proprietor
By utilizing some simple FSBO (For Sale by Proprietor) tips and techniques, the common home-owner can promote his or her own residence with out the help of an actual estate agent. This photo would be the very first photo in your listing and different advertising materials related to promoting your property. That is a flowery method of saying that we take a look at the sale costs of comparable houses inside your neighborhood to establish the best worth at which you can promote your own home to critical patrons quick.
Nonetheless, aggressive bidding will drive the value up. Sellers look to the Public sale methodology when they're highly motivated to promote, want to promote rapidly due to circumstances or wish to liquidate to re-enter the market as buyers. Because of this, all listings have an expiration date which will be extended just by logging in to your Promoting Heart and clicking Extend Itemizing.
Your Security Net: Do not accept a test for greater than your selling worth, regardless of how tempting the plea or convincing the story. Step four: Your property listing may be syndicated to main home search websites (subject to local MLS rules and laws).
Actual property is often outlined as property that consists of land and the buildings on it together with its natural sources. When discussing the selling price it is necessary that your calculations and numbers are right. Think about targeting purchaser's brokers with your advertising and offering additional compensation to lure a purchaser's agent to show your property.
New CMA
As a home inspector, I get to see many errors by people promoting their dwelling without a real estate agent, generally known as FSBO's or For Sale By Owner. Faira is the only actual estate platform that permits sellers to list their house and receive provides on-line in actual time—all for zero{84e52a0ba2a481692e464097d9556e4c582bbfd762ea1b96f28fb33a8ba315be} listing commission. They earn a dwelling selling houses, so absolutely they will need to have some pretty successful methods. For those who wish to deactivate your listing, you will have to contact Customer Support at 1-888-FOR-SALE.
Many patrons use actual property brokers, and these agents use the MLS as their fundamental instrument to search out properties for their buyers. Handle your photographs and edit your itemizing anytime. Redfin is redefining real property and the home shopping for process in Los Angeles with business-main expertise, full-service agents, and lower fees that present a greater value for Redfin patrons and sellers.
The #1 For Sale By Proprietor Website To Buy Or Promote Properties
We'll additionally list your own home on a real property agent's most powerful selling instrument – the MLS. 80{84e52a0ba2a481692e464097d9556e4c582bbfd762ea1b96f28fb33a8ba315be} of all properties bought have used the MLS as a major means of selling.
If you are selling your home and not using a real estate agent, you could realize the agents in your space aren't your enemy. If you are a magazine writer, a mortgage dealer, 'non-traditional' real property broker, or entrepreneur serious about working with buyers and sellers, try the chance to be the exclusive affiliate in your native market. eighty{84e52a0ba2a481692e464097d9556e4c582bbfd762ea1b96f28fb33a8ba315be} of all properties offered have used the MLS as a major means of promoting.
With the intention to be featured on , you could point out that you're prepared to pay a purchaser's agent as low as zero.01{84e52a0ba2a481692e464097d9556e4c582bbfd762ea1b96f28fb33a8ba315be} of the sale worth of your property. Annually, increasingly more consumers are turning away from agents to sell on their very own.
Immediately's real property market rewards those householders that place a excessive-value on neatnessas well as cleanliness. It is the main database that actual estate agents use to seek out properties for sale. For some purpose promoting your own home by your self appears to offer you a particular excuse to be a jerk judging by the best way some FSBO's act.
Public sale is the new "buzz" phrase in the actual estate business as market circumstances require more intense advertising and marketing and specific timelines as a way to promote properties quicker. All footage, particulars or descriptions of any property, condition of title, value or in any other case is supplied for informational purposes solely and will not characterize the true and current standing of the property now or at the time of sale.
In case you are looking to sell your own home, it could be very tempting to attempt to promote the house yourself. Faira provides you all of the instruments and services you'll want to promote your property, completely free of cost: MLS listing, skilled photos, signage and way more. The standard fee for real estate agents is 6{84e52a0ba2a481692e464097d9556e4c582bbfd762ea1b96f28fb33a8ba315be} of the ultimate promoting value of the property.
Engaging properties (good houses in good areas, which might be priced accurately) sell shortly and unattractive ones don't. Advertising a house takes a whole lot of time, effort and expertise. The aim is to entice potential consumers to learn more about your property and click by means of your extra photos.
Promote Your Home By Owner
Home public sale by owner may be the different if your property has been on the market for a while. This does not imply that you must checklist with a real estate agent or dealer. Sellers can commonly find discount brokers who charge 4{84e52a0ba2a481692e464097d9556e4c582bbfd762ea1b96f28fb33a8ba315be} of the ultimate gross sales worth. FSBO Tip 5. You're promoting a house not a house. The FSBO didn't get provides as quick as needed, and became satisfied an agent might help them promote quicker.
A majority of buyers will use a real property agent to find and make affords on real estate. You'll be able to't at all times depend upon an agent's opinion of value as a result of generally agents take overpriced listings simply to lure your enterprise away from the opponents.

text: A recent incident of a plane with a dent in its nose raised a lot of interest on Twitter after basketball player Steve Adams and other players posted photos of the dent, saying they were 30,000 feet up. While 30,000 feet is not an unprecedented altitude for a bird, it is very unusual. However more professional reports say the plane was descending, and do not give an altitude. http://avherald.com/h?article=4b04a07d The flight history was recorded: https://flightaware.com/live/flight/DAL8935/history/20171028/0340Z/KMSP/KMDW And in fact the plane never got over 27,000 feet, and was at 24,000 or below for a good portion. It's not clear where the bird strike occurred, but a good candidate is the sudden deviation from the flight plan and the increase in the rate of descent seen here. That would indicate a possible strike at around 19,000 feet. However it's possible that it was later. It's not clear from the above report. High altitude birdstrikes are rare, but there's a lot of planes flying, so they still happen every so often. https://www.flightglobal.com/news/a...tigate-high-altitude-bird-strikes-nea-334523/ There's no particular reason for a bird to hit one forward-facing part of a plane more than any other, and yet we quite commonly see these big dents in the nose. The reason is quite simple: the rest of the plane is both much stronger, and largely at an angle from the forward direction. So a bird strike is much less likely to damage the plane in other areas. The nose cone of a plane is weak because it houses the forward looking radar. The nose cone needs to be transparent to radar, so it can't be made of metal. Manufacturers are starting to use carbon fiber in some cases, however most radar-transparent nose cones are still made of fiberglass. So it's not that the nose gets hit any more, it's just that it's much more likely to sustain damage. Other areas can still be damaged, particularly from impact with a larger bird. Here's an aircraft windscreen after being hit by two wild turkeys shortly after takeoff. And there are many other examples of bird strikes on other parts of the plane: But nosecone damage does predominate, due to the structural weakness. Why is there sometimes no blood? The simplest answer is that the plane flew through some rain while landing. But it's also possible that combination of speed and angle simply resulted in the bird not being in contact long enough for blood to get past the skin and feathers. A significant portion of the known bird strikes don't have any blood or feathers, like this one in Seattle: Source: https://twitter.com/SeaTacAirport/status/725486898764898304 That one was not quite as big as it looked. Most close-up images of a birdstrike will exaggerate the size of the dent, simply due to perspective. Look at it from a distance: Source: https://twitter.com/wfaachannel8/status/725468097210146816/photo/1 While the dents are mostly caused by birds, they can also be caused by particularly strong hail. Image Source: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...d-passengers-plane-dropped-hundreds-feet.html These images of a hail damaged plane illustrates how the damage gets focussed at the center of the nose. Obviously the hail would have hit everywhere on the front of the plane, but the center of the nose was the only place that was both weak enough and at the right angle for damage to show.

Do I Need a Will or A Trust?
To ensure that your property is distributed in the manner that you would like, it is advisable to have at least a basic Will in place. A person who dies in Colorado without a Will dies "intestate" meaning that his or her property is distributed according to the "succession" statues found in the Colorado Revised Statutes (see Title 15, Intestate Succession and Wills). The state statute may distribute your property in a way that you would not have chosen. While a valid Will avoids the pitfalls of intestate succession, the disadvantage of a Will is that it does not avoid probate, a complex, time consuming and costly process with court oversight.
A living trust provides an excellent way of controlling your assets. When you set up a revocable living trust your wishes will be honored and your family can avoid probate. A trust allows you to maintain control of your assets until your death or incompetency. Thereafter, the designated trustee will manage those same assets and will distribute them to your beneficiaries according to the specifications in the trust. As trust allows you to specify exactly how and when assets are distributed, unlike a Will where the assets are distributed immediately through probate.
It is important to understand that a trust does not take away the need for a Will. A Will provides a backup plan for any property that doesn't make it into your trust. For example, if you acquire a new property and don't add it to your trust before you die, that property won't pass under the terms of the trust document unless you have a Will in place that directs all assets to the trust.
Navigating Probate
Probate is the court-monitored process of settling a deceased person's estate that comes into play when the deceased individual has a Will or dies without any estate planning in place. In Colorado, the probate court will oversee the gathering of a decedent's assets, pay off debts and distribution of the assets to beneficiaries. This closely-monitored process is called formal administration and is governed by the Colorado Probate Code found in Title 15 of the Colorado Revised Statutes.
Probate is the legal process that is used to transfer title of assets from the decedent to his or her devisees (recipients named in a Will) or heirs (recipients designated by intestacy law). All Wills and intestate estates must be probated, but the degrees of court involvement and complexity range from simple and inexpensive to complicated and costly.
In Colorado there are three types of probates:
- Small estates (also known as summary probate where the decedent owned less than $64,000 and no real estate). Your devisees or heirs may collect your assets by using an affidavit and not have to open a probate action through the court.
- Uncontested estates ("informal"). If there is a valid Will or clear intestacy, no contests are expected, and there is a qualified personal representative ready to be appointed.
- Contested estates and invalid or questionable wills ("formal"). A formal probate may be required for several reasons, including when a Will is contested, unclear, invalid, or when there are apparent or actual significant challenges (i.e., identifying heirs, property title disputes) in administration.
Both formal and informal estates can be classified as either supervised or unsupervised probate. A supervised probate is one in which the court steps in to supervise the entire probate process. The court must approve the distribution of all property. Supervised probate is also the most expensive type of probate.
Colorado also requires that a personal representative notify (by publication in a local newspaper or by mail) any possible and known creditors of the decedent, and to pay legitimate claims. During the creditors' period, the personal representative will likely deal with valuing, consolidating, and/or liquidating the estate's assets.
Why Contact a Lawyer for Trust Administration?
When the creator of a trust dies, the trustee has certain duties to carry out. Those duties include the collection and management of the trust assets, the resolution of debts and claims, and the filing of tax reports. A trustee is held to a high standard of care in carrying out these duties. A trustee cannot self-deal or commingle trust and personal assets. If a trustee violates a duty, even if done so unintentionally, the trustee can be held personally responsible for any loss to the trust.
Colorado Beneficiary Representation
Even the best estate planning can potentially spawn disagreements between beneficiaries, heirs, and other interested parties and you can still find yourself in a dispute for your rightful inheritance. It seems like the worst time, the passing of a loved one, but that if all too often the time that disputes over the disposition of the deceased's estate and the inheritance occur. Relationships can be pushed to the breaking point, sometimes leading to severe fights among siblings and other family members over their respective inheritances. Dunlap Bennett & Ludwig is extremely knowledgeable and experienced in estate litigation law and represents those whose rights may be affected in an estate dispute.
Unfortunately, the rights of an estate beneficiary can be violated in several ways. This could include coerced and inappropriate transfer or gifts, a new Will or Trust or an amendment made while incompetent or under duress or coercion of another. An executor or trustee can also violate the rights of a beneficiary by self-dealing, commingling assets, failing to account for trust assets, failing to properly preserve assets, failing to remain impartial or failing to allocate or distribute assets as specified in a Will or Trust.
When there is a disagreement over the validity of a will or the existence of multiple wills, attorneys call such a situation a "will contest". This is a specific and specialized form of probate litigation that requires the assistance of an attorney familiar with the Colorado Probate Code and Colorado case law. Many such cases are a hybrid between a civil litigation case and a formal probate case. Probate litigation of often involves disclosures, subpoenas, depositions, negotiations, mediations, and sometimes a trial.
Colorado Guardianship/Conservatorship Representation
An elderly parent no longer capable of caring for themselves. A special needs child about to reach age 18. Grandchildren who lost their parents in a fatal accident. These are all examples of the types of circumstances that require the legal appointment of an individual to care for the needs of another. Colorado law provides detailed provisions for the care of an adult deemed to be an "incapacitated person" (see Title 15 Article 14 of the Colorado Revised Statutes). Our Colorado attorneys can help you through the legal process of establishing a guardianship or conservatorship. We offer informative, personal guidance that is specific to your situation and your loved one's needs.
There are two aspects to the legal care of another person – personal care (guardianship) and financial care (conservatorship). A guardian is responsible for the care of the individual and his or her healthcare and bodily decisions. A conservator is responsible for financial decisions.
You can only become a guardian or conservator by court appointment that involves filing a petition, the appointment of a court visitor, evaluation of the "interested person", the filing of a report, a hearing, and a determination by the court. Guardianship proceedings can be full of complicated issues. The powers and responsibilities of court appointment as a guardian or conservator can present many pitfalls. We understand that taking care of a loved one can be overwhelming. We assist families in the guardianship and conservatorship process for both children and adults including:
- Determining if guardianship or conservatorship is necessary
- Appointing a legal representative to act on behalf of the person or estate
- Locating and inventorying assets
- Accounting to the court and relatives
- Petitioning the court for permission to take actions on behalf of the "interested person"
- Terminating the guardianship or conservatorship when it is no longer necessary
Special Needs Trusts
A Special Needs Trust is a unique type of trust that can be used to conserve the assets of an elderly or disabled person. In many cases, especially when government benefits are involved, a loved one with a disability will need to have a special trust in the estate plan that is different from the trust for beneficiaries without a disability. The purpose of a Special Needs Trust is to ensure that the loved one can continue to receive public benefits while also receiving benefits from the funds held in trust to improve quality of life. The assets of a special needs trust can provide for non-support, quality of life needs of the beneficiary. The exact terms of the trust will depend upon the source of the trust funds. Examples of the types of Special Needs Trusts are:
- A third-party trust is a trust established for the benefit of an elderly or disabled person and is funded with the assets of persons other than the beneficiary. These types of trusts have few rules. They must contain standards about how distributions are made to the beneficiary but otherwise are flexible.
- A first-party trust is a trust where the source of the funds is from the disabled person. This type of trust has many complicated requirements; however, it can be useful to preserve the inheritance of a beneficiary or preserve the proceeds of a judgment or settlement.
- A testamentary special needs trust is one that is set forth in a person's last will and testament or revocable living trust and is only established and funded after the death of the testator of the will or the settlor of the revocable living trust.
- A pooled trust is funded with the assets of an elderly or disabled person and the assets are then pooled with other pooled trust beneficiaries' assets with the goal of lower of administrative costs and to allow the larger pooled principal to be increased for investment purposes.
Should I Be Concerned About Asset Protection?
A vital component of estate planning involves preserving and protecting the assets you have worked hard to accumulate. Asset protection strategies are being implements with greater frequency to address damaging lawsuits and creditor claims. Some strategies include:
- Revocable Trusts
- Irrevocable Trusts
- Gifts
- Homestead Exemptions
- Family Limited Partnerships
- Limited Liability Companies
- On-Shore Trusts
Asset protection law requires that planning take place long before there is any sign of a lawsuit. Money or property transferred out of your name with the intent of avoiding a pending lawsuit or creditor may be voided by a court. Do not wait until it is too late to take the appropriate steps.

I'm glad you found EmpowHER; we have some great information on psoriasis treatment. Can you tell us what you have tried (from the following information below):
Treatment is based on:
* The severity of the disease
* The extent and location of the areas involved
* Responsiveness to the treatment
Topical Treatment
Many patients respond very well to treatments applied directly to the skin. Topical treatments include:
* Corticosteroid creams and ointments (most common treatment)
* Synthetic forms of vitamin D and retinoids (calcipotriene ointment 0.005)
* Retinoids (tazarotene gel 0.05 and 0.1%)
* Coal tar preparations
* Bath solutions and moisturizers
* Tacrolimus and pimecrolimus (especially for inverse psoriasis)
Photo (Light) Therapy
If psoriasis covers more than 30% of the body it is difficult to treat with topical medications alone. Daily, short, nonburning exposure to sunlight clears or improves psoriasis in many people. Sunlight is often included among initial treatments. A more controlled form of artificial light treatment (UVB phototherapy) is often used in more widespread cases. Althernatively, psoriasis can be treated with ultraviolet A (UVA light) and psoralen. Psoralen is an oral or topical medication that makes the body more sensitive to light. This treatment is known as PUVA.
Phototherapy can be very effective in controlling psoriasis but it requires frequent treatments. It may cause side effects such as nausea, headache, fatigue, burning, and itching. Both UVB and PUVA may increase the person's risk for squamous cell and, possibly, melanoma skin cancers . It is unclear whether UVB increases the risk of skin cancer.
Systemic Treatment
For more severe types of psoriasis, doctors may prescribe a number of other powerful medications, which can be effective, but are associated with more serious side effects. These include:
* Methotrexate—should not be taken by pregnant women, women planning to become pregnant, or by their male partners.
* Cyclosporine—suppresses the immune system to slow the turnover of skin cells.
* Hydroxyurea—less toxic than methotrexate or cyclosporine, but may be less effective
* Systemic retinoids—Compounds with vitamin A-like properties taken internally (such as methotrexate) may be prescribed in severe cases. Retinoids can cause birth defects, and women must diligently protect themselves from pregnancy for several years after completing treatment. Systemic retinoids are often combined with phototherapy for increased effectiveness and for their property of being protective against squamous skin cancer.
Newer systemic immunomodulators, or biologicals—so called because they affect some aspect of the body's natural immune response—may also be quite effective. These treatments are generally the most expensive, though, and some can cause serious toxicity when given systemically (intravenously or by injection). Topical preparations of immunomodulators are currently being tested and seem to have benefits. Other drugs called thiazolidinediones may show promise as future treatments for psoriasis, but are not currently recommended.October 26, 2010 - 8:40am

Summer Happenings
Summer has officially arrived here. School is done for now (well, except for a couple of things that we year round). To celebrate, we took the boys to Hershey Park for a day of stand-in-line-for-an-hour followed by a minute-of-excitement. The husband and I seemed to be the only ones who minded this imbalance.
I actually got a little bit of knitting done while we were at the park. The boys went to play at the water playground by themselves, much to the anxiety of my mother's heart. They are really growing up fast!
Back at home, I have been making good progress on my ruby red test knit. I am quite loving this breathless dk yarn by Shalimar and am really looking forward to being finished with this project. We've had some days over 90 degrees recently and that's just too hot to have a pile of wool in my lap!
In other summery news, I have decided to take the plunge and open an etsy shop! For now, I am selling stitch markers. In my first few days, thanks to my loyal Ravelry friends in the ThreeBagsFull group, I sold almost the entire stock I had prepared, which was really surprising and exciting and scary to me.
The shop is called 1514Homemade, a name that the older son came up with years ago. I can't remember how it came about, but we were discussing some baked yumminess that I had made and how we could sell them. That lead to a discussion on what we would name the shop and he suggested 1514Homemade, which incorporates our house number. I considered naming it after myself or the blog, but really, every one here in this house has a hand in the things that get made. The boys have helped me a lot with the stitch markers by threading beads and helping with organization. The husband is an invaluable resource on all things related to materials science and production processes. Any venture that happens is truly a group effort here.
Right now, the shop has a few items left, but if you look at the sold items and see something that you want, you can always submit a custom order request. For now, I am thinking of updating the shop once a month or so. Eventually, I may try selling other things besides stitch markers as well. Quilts or pillows, maybe? Or the odd knitted item. We'll just have to see where this leads me. I'll be sure to keep you posted.
So, how is your summer going? What new things are you trying?

I love the labels on the stitch marker packages! It reminds me of the cookie pictures at Christmas when I ordered some. So very sweet and charming. You are teaching your boys such valuable lessons. They are very lucky!

#AskExcelinEd: What exactly do we mean by "career pathways"?
• Quentin Suffren
Across states, there is considerable—and justifiable—political and economic momentum behind expanding career pathways for students and young adults. Indeed, it's one of the rare bipartisan issues in education right now. (We hope it stays that way.)
What exactly do we mean when we use the term "career pathway"?
In reality, it's an evolving concept. In decades past, this term might have conveyed vocational training—typically at the secondary level—that prepared graduates for jobs in the trades or other careers that were not on the college track. Some were good jobs, to be sure. But there was also a darker rationale behind these vocational education pathways: that these jobs were for students who weren't considered to be college material—a judgment often grounded in racial, gender and/or economic bias.
Times have changed for the better. Career and technical education (CTE) programs have made strides to shed the stigma of vocational education and added more pathways aligned to middle- and higher- wage careers. (We are especially interested in seeing state CTE programs provide a strong foundation for these efforts.)
Business and industry representatives have become more increasingly involved in determining what those pathways should be and require, in terms of preparation and credentials. And policymakers and educators are in stronger agreement that academic education and workforce training can be combined in schools and colleges (and applied in real-world contexts) for mutual benefit.
But there is more to be done. Many states and regions still need to take bold action to scale development of and access to pathways aligned to a wider range of high-wage, high-skill careers.
For instance, K-12 systems and postsecondary institutions need to align their programs more closely to industry demand. Businesses need to do a better job of realistically articulating the skills required to succeed in open positions (as opposed to defaulting to a bachelor's degree, for instance). And all parties need to work together to provide parents and students with more information about potential career options related to student interests and labor market data. Meanwhile, the steady drumbeat of predictions about automation and artificial intelligence as disruptive forces portend a not-so-distant future in which all learners and workers will need to be more digitally savvy and adaptable to re-skill and access opportunities not yet even in existence.
Even with these challenges ahead, the very notion of "career pathways" for policymakers and educators now implies expanded future opportunities for learners, not more limited ones.
So back to the term itself. Below is both a definition along with a list of assumptions—and in some cases, aspirations—we hold for "career pathways."
The Definition of Career Pathways
Career pathways typically refer to a sequential and progressive set of coursework, experiences and credentials that:
- Span both secondary and postsecondary education, as well as work-based contexts;
- Are closely aligned with industry standards and demand; and
- Prepare learners not only for entry to a specific job, but also continued career advancement over time.
A Set of Assumptions and Aspirations for Career Pathways
- They are informed and supported by strong cross-sector partnerships among K-12 schools and districts, postsecondary institutions, and business and industry.
- They are aligned to higher wage and higher skills careers that are in-demand at the state and/or regional levels.
- They feature seamless transitions between secondary, postsecondary and work-based learning opportunities.
- The coursework is rigorous enough to prepare students for additional training and advancement.
- The credentials offered and earned are highly valued by business and industry, as well as progressive or "stackable" wherever possible.
- The experiences span the full spectrum of applied and work-based learning opportunities, beginning early in learners' education and growing steadily over time.
- They provide learners with the agency and information to make well-informed decisions about their career options.
- They regularly incorporate digital skills and updated technology training.
- They are accessible to all.
Depending on the region or state, these may be much more aspiration than assumption. However, it's worth articulating as both, if only to jumpstart necessary conversations and support state efforts to strengthen long-term opportunities for students.

Spies in Disguise - Full Movie Watch Online, Download and Stream HD
Spies in Disguise
The visual inspiration is linked to the spy film movement of the '60s, but without affecting the modern sensibility of the plot. In particular, the character of Lance Sterling (voiced in original by Will Smith), has a silhouette that resembles a glass of Martini, and his movements are almost always exaggerated, a bit Killing theatrical. To animate his movements, a playlist was used, as shown by a test piece: in the first, we hear the music that dictates the gestures of Sterling while he sits in the office, while in the second we see the same event but without sound accompaniment . The explanation: "Even if you do not hear the music in the movie, it's like he always had it in his head." The protagonist is an excellent secret agent, but lives alone by choice (the illustration of his apartment is accompanied by the caption "cage"), while his partner Walter Beckett (voice of Tom Holland) does the same thing because socially clumsy. Two different characters but still united by a common feature, and it is on this that will be much of the comedy of the feature.
The clip shown to those in the room is a mixture of complete animation, storyboard and a hybrid of the two elements, and is placed in the first part of the film, when Sterling is forced to flee from their employers. In order to hide, he needs an invention by Walter, which transforms him into a … pigeon! Yes, even in the first Blue Walking Out Sky film focusing on human characters there is room for a talking animal. The clip shown to us plays a lot on the physical comedy, but there is also a remarkable alchemy between Smith and Holland, with an anthology on the sight of pigeons, a detail that required a small poetic license: "In reality they see about 270 ° in the film we have extended it to 360 ", says the director. It should be noted that this transformation is not a spoiler, as it is also shown in the official teaser, projected at the end of the meeting and soon available on the net. Now we just have to wait for March to know how far they will push the authors with this crazy, intriguing premise.
