Matic accepts Chelsea contract offer
Serbia starlet Nemanja Matic says he has accepted a four-year contract offer from Chelsea. The 20-year-old midfielder - who has already made two appearances for the senior national team - has made 66 league appearances for MFK Kosice, netting four times, since arriving from Kolubara Lazarevac in 2007. Matic was set to star at last month's U21 European Championships in Sweden, only for a broken metatarsal injury sustained in Serbia's opener against Italy to end his tournament prematurely. However, the setback failed to halt reports linking the youngster with a string of English sides - including Manchester United, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, Aston Villa and Fulham. And, according to Matic himself, Chelsea have won the race for his signature, with the Blues now required to agree a deal with Kosice. "I can confirm that Chelsea have offered me a four-year contract, which I have accepted," he told Dennik Sport. "Now the clubs must come to an agreement." CHELSEA FANS!

I would like to thank Silent Scarlettt for the wonderful cover.
Hello potential readers ;)
The story may start a bit slow and the first few chapters may be a bit 'bland' to most of you. Please bear with it. Haha
Actually, if you want to, you could skip past the first four chaps. lol.
I would like to make a few things clear, there would be no harem in this one.
I don't think there will be romance in the near future.
No OP MC? At least not for now.
And mostly, everyone is using their brains.
Alex, a student about to enter college was forcefully transmigrated by the goddess of a certain world. He hated being transmigrated in this world, but he was forced to become strong, not to save the world -- but his family.
Demons invaded the land of Terra, Beasts becoming stronger and Humanity growing weaker. Can he wield the power to protect his loved ones?
With a system in hand, reaching the peak should be easy. Would it really be?
If you have time please try to leave a review. Would help me a lot ;)
My first book. Hehe

Antrim & Newtownabbey
'The Borough of Antrim & Newtownabbey is an ideal area to explore on foot. Steeped in folklore and set in tranquil countryside, the walking routes allow you to explore the rich natural and cultural heritage the Borough has to offer.'
'The walk is situated adjacent to Antrim, a town steeped in history and with many places of interest. The aim of the walk is to encourage people of all ages to walk for leisure and good health.'
Antrim Lough Shore Park [VirtualVisitTours] | Lough Shore Park [OutdoorNI.com]
'The trail gives a flavour of the area's rich cultural past by going back to the origins of Historic Antrim. At various locations on the trail, information panels provide detailed information and signpost the way to other places of interest.'
'Carnmoney Hill is a green oasis in an urban area, and is rich in both history and wildlife ... '
'The pretty Glen consists of an area of mixed woodland with a wide variety of trees, plants and birds. A picnic area, car parking and toilet facilities are situated next to the start of the riverside and woodland walk, which leads to a waterfall and Cockle House. The Cockle House is a little gothic-arched rubble stoned building and, according to folklore, was built facing Mecca as a Muslim temple for the landowner's servant.'
Alert Following the translation of Antrim Borough Council into Antrim and Newtownabbey Borough Council, this description seems to have disappeared from their Website. So I have changed the Link.
Nine 'suggested walking routes' in Newtownabbey.
Alert Unfortunately, in the translation of Newtownabbey Borough Council into Antrim and Newtownabbey Borough Council, details of these Walks seem to have been mislaid. So I have replaced the Link with a more generic one.

Sir; When Senator Bala Mohammed was appointed Minister in April 2010, he told FCT residents that the issue of infrastructural development was dear to his heart. He promised that comprehensive development of the city in terms of basic infrastructure will be his key focus. He also spoke of how he would achieve this in both the city centre and the satellite towns.
It wasn't long after the minister settled to the job that it dawned on him the enormity of the task of developing Abuja's' infrastructure. As Nigerians trooped into the city in their thousands, demand for basic amenities like road networks, water supply, electricity and other infrastructure rose geometrically; on the other hand, the supply of revenue for these projects remained static with the usual budgetary allocation and other vague sources of fund like the internally generated revenue.
Four years into his administration as FCT Minister, opinions remain divided over what he has really been able to achieve. But one certainly cannot take away the fact that Senator Mohammed has been able to bring to fore some innovations like the land swap policy that pundits are now hailing as the magic wand that has the potential to actually unlock Abuja's development.
In the reasoning of the minister, efforts to develop Abuja have not been so pleasant because previous administrations did not give the issue of infrastructural development the desired attention. As it were, previous ministers were allocating plots of land to Nigerians without due consideration for infrastructure and this meant that the allottees merely kept these land titles in their briefcases unsure of what to do with it. Of course, the absence of infrastructure did not also help matters as you do not expect one to go and develop a plot of land in a forest somewhere without consideration for access road, security, electricity and water supply.
This was why the minister came up with the the innovative land swap policy whereby investors with the financial and technical capacity would invest in the infrastructural development and then take land in return as a substitute to the money invested.
The investors are expected to develop these districts in line with the master plan and in line with the model of other districts developed.
So far, the FCT administration has succeeded in introducing this model in such new districts of Katampe, Jahi, Wuye, Maitama extension, Goodluck District and Kagini. These six districts are currently witnessing unprecedented development and transformation which has never happened before in the Federal Capital Territory.
As the minister stated recently, this approach to infrastructural development is expected to attract foreign direct investments to the tune of N3.2 trillion, which is quite commendable, being the first of its kind in the entire West African region.

Still not sure what to make of this franchise. The first one had a really compelling opening trailer, but didn't do much to continue that interest and from the bugginess I've read and heard about - there are still questions. I'd hope some real dedication to fixing the issues in the first game is taking place, but the fact that it's leading with a sequel this soon makes me think that might not be the case.

A restaurant manager who's just learned from a quick online survey that 80% of her customers are satisfied and really like her food should be pretty happy, right?
Granted, those figures are good news. Low satisfaction numbers would have been a red flag for urgent action. But the survey doesn't tell the whole story. Of those satisfied customers, how many are "super fans" who make repeat visits and recommend the restaurant? The customers seem pleased with the food, but are there issues with service that keep them from returning more often? In their eyes, is the food overpriced or underpriced when they compare with similar restaurants around town? And is 80% satisfaction an improvement over last year, or a decline?
A customer satisfaction survey can help you retain customers. Always more cost-effective than courting new ones. It can reveal both problems to solve and strengths to maintain. But it takes time to choose and craft the right survey questions to yield the most valuable information for your business.
Choose Questions Based on Your Goals
Online surveys are a great tool because they're easy to analyze and easy to repeat so you can track how you're doing over time.
Unfortunately, you probably won't be able to include every single question that's on your mind in your survey. Asking too many questions decreases your chances that the customers will finish the survey. It doesn't exactly build goodwill with them, either. On the other hand, asking only a couple of questions doesn't give you enough specific data to be actionable, according to the Inquisium blog about surveying. That blog recommends using 10-15 questions for your survey.
What questions to include depends on your goals. If, for example, you want to learn how loyal customers to your restaurant are, don't just ask how much they like your food. That's hardly the only factor than wins over or turns off customers. To maintain or earn their loyalty, you also need information on how customers feel about your service, location and pricing. How they think you stack up against other dining options is also important. We'll look at some of the most common questions in the rest of this article.
Focus on Customer Loyalty
According to survey firm Survey Anyplace, one of the key areas you should look at is customer loyalty. Perhaps the best-known way of measuring loyalty is the Net Promoter Score.
Net Promoter Score is based on the question "On a scale of 1-10, how likely are you to recommend this business to a friend?" Anyone who answers 6 or below is a detractor. Sevens and 8s are classified as "passive." Those who answer the question with a 9 or 10 are promoters. To get your Net Promoter Score, subtract your percentage of detractors from the percentage of promoters.
While the net promoter score gives you a good general indication of how you're doing, it's even more valuable when you also ask some follow-up questions that give you the additional information you need to make needed changes.
Those could include:
- Open-ended questions. Ask customers to explain the factors behind their response. What it would take for them to answer 9 or 10 if they didn't (recommended by the customer support software firm Helpscout)?
- Questions about future behavior. For example how likely the respondent is to renew his membership at your gym or dine at your restaurant within the next month (recommended by Survey Anyplace).
The Net Promoter Score is the key metric to focus on if you're looking to grow. And there's one more benefit of discovering your score: Because Net Promoter Scores are so commonly used, you can compare your own score to the benchmarks for your industry, according to Survey Anyplace.
Track Overall Satisfaction
In addition to the Net Promoter Score, overall satisfaction is one of the most widely recommended questions to use in online surveys. According to Forbes, this number is motivational because it's something that front-line managers can directly impact.
But, again, a question about overall satisfaction becomes more useful when you combine it with follow-ups on areas like quality, reliability and customer fulfillment. Make sure to include open-ended questions where customers can tell you more about why they answered as they did. These questions help you turn your data into actions that affect the bottom line.
Your overall satisfaction rating is also useful to track over time. Sometimes the most valuable metric to know is how you're doing compared with your own past performance.
Dig Deeper for More Details
The Net Promoter Score and the overall satisfaction rating give you a big-picture look at how you're doing. Attributional questions help you drill down to get the specific information you need to make improvements and retain customers.
You can ask your customers to rate their satisfaction on specific attributes that are key to satisfaction. For example, a gym's survey might include attributes like cleanliness, equipment, classes and service. Keep this list as short as you can so respondents don't lose interest. And use the same language your customer would – not industry terms – in describing attributes. In this section, you also ask how important each attribute is to the customer. That will give you even more valuable data you can use in making the right decisions for your business.
It helps to have some context for interpreting how your customers rate you. So you may want to include some questions in your survey about how customers think you're doing compared with your competition. It is also interesting to compare with customers' expectations for a business like yours, according to the market research guide GreenBook.
According to Helpscout, the Corporate Executive Board recommends asking customers questions related to how easy it is to do business with you. That's because the board's research shows that reducing customer effort is a powerful way to win loyalty. Design your survey so that respondents can give additional information on experiences that weren't easy for them (for example, signing up for membership in your gym or booking you restaurant's event room).

CALGARY – Emboldened by an improved outlook for oil prices, Husky Energy Inc. will boost spending next year for the first time since 2014 even as its direct competitors pare their budgets back.
Husky announced Monday it would spend between $2.9 billion and $3.1 billion in 2018 – up roughly 35 per cent from the $2.2 billion to $2.3 billion it plans to spend this year.
Despite a bigger capital budget and improved confidence, the Calgary-based oil and gas producer did not reinstate its dividend, which had been suspended during the oil price collapse, though management hinted a dividend could be on the way.
"Barring unforeseen events, at this point in time, I think the board is likely to be favourably disposed (to reinstating a dividend) when they sit down and discuss it with the fourth quarter results," Husky president and CEO Rob Peabody said, noting the oil price environment had "stabilized."
For now, Husky plans to spend the additional cash it expects to generate next year on two new heavy oil projects, new wells at its properties offshore Newfoundland and the expansion of its offshore gas project in China.
The company's plans contrast the budgets announced by other major producers like Canadian Natural Resources Ltd., which expects spend roughly $500 million less in 2018 than the $4.9 billion it spent in 2017.
Similarly, Suncor Energy Inc. announced a 10 per cent cut to its planned spending next year, a reduction of $750 million, when it announced its $4.5 billion to $5 billion budget for 2018.
Both Suncor and CNRL had spent billions in recent years to complete major oilsands projects that are now ramping up. Husky, meanwhile, has been working on smaller scale heavy oil projects and ramping up production at existing oilsands facilities.
"We expect capital spending to be covered by cash flow at $50 oil prices, with limited opportunity to reinstate a dividend unless oil prices stay near current levels," BMO Capital Markets analyst Randy Ollenberger said of Husky in a research note.
He said he expects Husky would generate $1 billion in free cash flow if West Texas Intermediate oil prices stay at US$55 per barrel.
The WTI benchmark slipped during mid-day trading Monday to US$57.52 per barrel, but have been trending upward since falling to US$42.53 per barrel in June.
"Recent higher oil prices have been supported by global economic growth forecasts, production restraints and increased geopolitical risk," Moody's senior vice-president Terry Marshall said in a report Monday. He added, "risks to prices persist, including reduced consumption due to higher prices, as well as increased supply."
The debt ratings agency published a report Monday that showed expected WTI to range between US$40 and US$60 per barrel through 2018 and into 2019 because there are still "significant global supplies" and modest growth in oil demand.
The report noted that oil prices above US$50 per barrel will encourage more oil production, which would weigh on the price.
Husky, for its part, indicated it planned to increase production from current levels around 320,000 to 335,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day to 400,000 boepd in 2021.

In recent years, hardware-based systems are becoming software-based and networked. From IP based media networks, the notion of Software Defined Media (SDM) has arisen. SDM is an architectural approach to media as a service by virtualization and abstraction of networked infrastructure. With this approach, it would be possible to provide more flexible and versatile systems. To test this concept, a baroque orchestra was recorded by various methods with 82 channels of microphones in total. All the data was organized based on the object-based concept and we applied advanced signal processing to the data based on array signal processing technology to produce a content matching various purposes of possible applications. Through this study, the value of SDM concept is verified.

Ok heres what happened. Usually, i would play any downloadable games I wanted andthey would work fantastic with no lag what so ever. But one day,(forgot when), i was playing and all of a sudden i would start lagging and it wouldn't stop. I used to be able to have 2-3 games on my comp with no problems but not i have one and my games are lagging. I have a virus scan and it said no viruses. And the wierd thing is that some days I would start up my comp and play my downloadable games without the lag AT ALL. But most days i would turn on my comp, wait a few min., start up my game, and after an hour or so just start lagging non stop. I would try restarting the game but it would either not lag for a few min(Like 5) I just keep lagging. But only my downloadable games lag. My Internet doesn't lag at all. I tried re-downloading the games but that did not work. Please help me so I can go back to playing normaly. T_T

Providence, R.I.--Senior pitcher Briana Gough (West Warwick, RI) hurled Rhode Island College past Southern Maine, 5-2, in game one of a Little East doubleheader played at the Dayna A.

Game One: Rhode Island College 5, Southern Maine 2
Game Two: Southern Maine 11, Rhode Island College 0 (five innings).
Rhode Island College (15-9, 2-4 LEC)
Southern Maine (13-10, 2-4 LEC)
Game One
• Junior center fielder Michaela DeAngelis (North Providence, RI) went 1-for-3 with a pair of RBI, while Gough struck out four in seven innings to earn her ninth (9-4) win of the year.
• Freshman second baseman Marissa Cushman (Cranston, RI) went 1-for-3 with a run scored, an RBI and a stolen base.
• USM junior right fielder Erin Martin (Biddeford, ME) went 4-for-4 with two runs scored, a pair of doubles and a solo home run (4).
• The visitors took a 1-0 lead in the top of the first on junior designated player Kayleigh Bohan (Bedford, NH) RBI single.
• RIC took the lead for good with a two-run first inning, paced by a Cushman RBI single.
• Senior shortstop Cristin Chiaverini (Pawtucket, RI) singled in a run in the second and DeAngelis plated a pair with a single in the third to put the hosts up, 5-1.
• Martin homered in the sixth to cap the game's offensive output. Southern Maine junior starter Madison Greene (Moultonborough, NH) suffered the loss (3-1).
Game Two

• After Brown helped her cause with an RBI single in the third, a costly error with a bases loaded staked the visitors to a 4-0 lead.
• The wheels came off the wagon for the Anchorwomen in the fifth as USM put across seven runs on eight hits to build a double-digit advantage and earn the split. Bohan brought in two with a double as part of the outburst.
• RIC senior Erica Fleming (Sagamore Beach, MA) took the loss (5-3).
• Brown, who also hurled 3.1 scoreless innings of relief in the opener, was dominant on the day. The righty stuck out 17 in 8.1 innings of work, allowing just six hits without surrendering a run. At the plate, she went 4-for-8 with a run scored and a double.
• Martin went 5-for-7 with four runs scored, two doubles and a homer. Bohan knocked in three with a double and a run scored.
• Simmons with 2-for-6 with a run scored, a double, one RBI and a steal for the hosts.

DONALD P. REITBERG, Pharm. D.; HAROLD BERNHARD, M.D.; JEROME J. SCHENTAG, Pharm. D.
Interaction between cimetidine and theophylline was studied in six male volunteers, who were randomly divided into two groups to eliminate temporal effects. The effect of cimetidine on theophylline elimination was immediate and progressed as cimetidine treatment was continued. Cimetidine prolonged theophylline half-life compared to that in control periods an average of 36.2% (range, 0 to 103%) on the first day of cimetidine exposure (p < 0.05). Theophylline clearance was decreased an average of 18.5% (range, 4.9% to 36%), whereas theophylline volume of distribution was unchanged by cimetidine. After 8 days of cimetidine treatment at the usually recommended dosage, theophylline half-life further increased to 64.3% (range, 9% to 128%) of control values, whereas clearance declined an average of 30% (range, 5% to 50%) (p < 0.01). Theophylline volume of distribution remained unchanged. Although cimetidine-theophylline interaction needs confirmation in a patient population, we advise caution when these agents are coadministered. Some adjustment in theophylline dosage may be needed in treated patients who are also given cimetidine, and these patients should be studied closely with theophylline serum concentration measurements and careful clinical assessments.

GLOSSOP singer Bez is taking a shot at the World Cup anthem - and hopes to kick his music rivals into touch.
'World At Your Feet,' penned by indie band Embrace, has been chosen as the official England song for this summer but has met with mixed reviews.
Now, following in the footsteps of Fat Les with 'Vindaloo,' Bez is hoping to score a winner when he releases 'One Dream' with his band Domino Bones.
Bez, real name Mark Berry, said: "I'm a massive football fan so I was really pleased to be asked.
"When we heard the song we really liked it. It's a novelty song, it's catchy and a little bit raucous which suits my personality.
"It's good fun and it's politically correct as well - there's no mention of the Germans!"
The former Big Brother winner, who now lives in Padfield, is remaining tight-lipped on his competition for the World Cup anthem.
"I haven't heard the Embrace song yet, so I can't comment on it," said Bez.
"Hopefully, people will listen to One Dream and like it. I'm going to a few of the England games so if they sing it on the terraces, that'd be great.
"At the end of the day it's all about getting behind the England team and hopefully the gods will be on our side."
Bez, best known for his freaky dancing with the Happy Mondays, says his trademark maracas might even make an appearance too.
"I've actually got a pair in the car at the moment," he added. "They can come out anytime, anywhere, so watch this space!"
One Dream is released on 19 June.

Wednesday, Feb 10, 1993
South San Francisco, Calif. -- February 10, 1993 --On January 21, a French Court granted a petition by Eli Lilly and Company to revoke a portion of a Genentech Inc. French patent relating to methods for making growth hormone. Since the United States and French patent laws and the United States and French patents in litigation between Lilly and Genentech differ, Genentech, Inc. believes that this ruling will have no impact on the United States litigation between Eli Lilly and Company, the Regents of the University of California and Genentech, Inc. Genentech's t-PA patent encountered similar difficulties in litigation in the United Kingdom in 1987 but was ultimately upheld in the United States and Japan.
The litigations in the U.S. District Court in Indiana involve thirteen Genentech United States Patents being asserted against Eli Lilly and Company and the Regents of the University of California relating to human growth hormone, bovine growth hormone and porcine growth hormone. One patent relating to human growth hormone held by the Regents of the University of California and licensed to Eli Lilly and Company is being asserted against Genentech.
Additionally, Genentech has pending in the same court a breach of contract action against Eli Lilly and Company. This action involves the misuse of Genentech materials provided under an agreement directed to the development of recombinant human insulin.
Genentech, Inc. is a leading biotechnology company that discovers, develops, manufactures and markets human pharmaceuticals for significant medical needs. The Company has headquarters in South San Francisco, California and is traded on the New York and Pacific Stock exchanges under the symbol GNE.

The Best Tripods of 2018 According to SLR Lounge
No matter what you're shooting, be it a portrait, HDR landscapes, video clips, long exposures, or panoramas, you'll need a tripod to lock down your camera and ensure you get a great image. It really is the most common accessory out there and you can guarantee that if you have a camera, you need a tripod. There are hundreds of brands & styles on the market ranging from "table" tripods to models over 12 feet tall that are capable of supporting an insane amount of weight. And this is all before we even get to the different style of heads!
To help you decide which tripod is right for you, we've created our list of the Best Tripods for Photographers, updated annually. These lists are based on our personal experience as working photographers combined with extensive research from other reputable sources online.
If you aren't familiar with some of the terms, options, or components on a tripod we mention here, please check out the article The Tripod Explained. There's a lot of great information compiled there that will make your understanding much more complete.
If we missed anything, or if you have any recommendations on what we should consider for next year, please comment below!
Best Travel Tripods
One thing working photographers have to have in their kit is a great travel tripod for those random road trips and commercial gigs that require super light packing. The key to a great travel tripod is one that is light-weight, folds up into a neat compact package that hopefully can also fit easily in a carry-on bag, but still is tough and sturdy to make sure you get a stable shot.
3 Legged Thing Brian With AirHed Neo Ball Head (Our Choice)
Our Winner for Best Travel Tripod.
The 3 Legged Thing Punks Brian with AirHed Neo is one of the best travel tripods you can possibly have! Boasting a minimum height of 7.5″ and a maximum of over 74″, you can pretty much achieve any shot with this lightweight and compact tripod. This guy is made from carbon fiber, allowing the frame to be a light 3 lbs and still support up to 30.9 lbs of gear! One leg even detaches so you can use it as a Monopod. I've personally owned this tripod and used it on all of my travel and timelapse shoots and would highly recommend it for anyone.
The only drawback I have seen with this unit is this; while I love this tripod, I am not a huge fan of the twist locking leg mechanisms and have had issues ensuring they are completely locked and secure when fully extended. This may be nitpicking, but it can be a frustration when you're setting up and all ready for your shot only to have one of the legs slide down an inch and wobble on you.
Check the prices from our preferred retailers below:
MeFOTO RoadTrip Travel Tripod
Our 2nd Place Winner for Best Travel Tripod.
The MeFOTO GlobeTrotter is a travel tripod that will definitely help you stand out in a crowd. It's got a sleek Carbon Fiber design available in red, green, and blue colors to fit your kit to perfection. Weighing only 3.7 lbs with a ball head, it's able to safely hold up to 26.4 lbs of gear. Its minimum height is only 16.1″ and with its 5 leg sections, will rise to 64.2″. Much like the 3 Legged Thing above, it can also convert into a monopod to give you even more creative freedom.
The drawback on this tripod is when fully extended, the legs can be a tad wobbly. So it's recommended by many users to leave the bottom section to improve the rigidity.
Check the prices from our preferred retailers below:
Gitzo Series 1 Traveler Tripod with Center Ball Head
Our 3rd Place Winner for Best Travel Tripod.
The Gitzo Series 1 Traveler Tripod may be the shortest of the list coming in at a max height of only 52.4″ but it still is a serious contender. With a minimum height of 12″ it only weighs 2.8 lbs, making it the lightest of the bunch with the smallest footprint with a folded length of 14.4″. The entire design is based on maximizing its thin profile as well as making it look awesome with incredibly sturdy legs.
The drawbacks on this tripod were mentioned above. It's one of the better looking, lighter, and sturdier devices on the list, but it's also the smallest height and lowest weight capacity. That said, it's still one of the best lightweight tripods available.
Check the prices from our preferred retailers below:
Best "Tabletop" Tripods
These seem to have the most versatility out there, used by Vloggers, Influencers, Travel/Adventure Photographers and more. While they are by far the smallest, these best iPhone Tripods seem to have some of the most creative uses in the industry. Especially since they can all be used for smaller DSLR's as well.
JOBY GORILLAPOD 3K (Our Choice)
Our Winner for Best Tabletop Tripod.
The Joby Gorillapod is typically less than 1-foot tall and can hold about 6.5 lbs with the 3k model, (increased up to 15″ tall and 11 lbs with the 5k), and it can fit practically anywhere you can imagine. With its strong flexible legs, you can mount your DSLR on a pole, tree, table leg, street sign, or anything that can support the weight of your device, making it perfect for getting a stable shot in hard to access places.
The drawback here will be a lack of stability over long durations as the legs are flexible, so it's possible that over time your camera will shift in position. Also if you're using a rig that's on the heavier side of the 6.5 lb max weight recommendation, the legs won't hold their position for long and you'd be better off jumping to the more pricey and heavier duty 5k model

Manfrotto Pixi Evo Mini Tripod
Our 2nd Place Winner for Best Tabletop Tripod.
Manfrotto is pretty much a household name in the tripod world, and they're best known for their larger and full-size tripods. But the design team at Manfrotto has hit the mark nearly perfectly with the Pixi Evo Mini Tripod.
Designed for smaller cameras, smartphones, and smaller mirrorless cameras, the Pixi Evo can even hold up to 5.5 lb DSLR/Mirrorless combos while boasting an incredibly small footprint. Despite its small size, this device is built like a tank and can also be used as a handheld grip for recording video on your camera.
The drawback on this unit is the limited options for its legs. Basically, the legs are either opened wide or flat, which will hinder the number of places you can securely place it compared to the flexible Gorillapod.
Check the prices from our preferred retailers below:
Leica Tabletop Tripod
Our 3rd Place Winner for Best Tabletop Tripod.
Simple and Elegant, the Leica Tabletop Tripod has been around for years and hasn't changed a bit in decades! It's an elegant and nearly indestructible design with incredible stability since the legs simply do not move.
The footprint on this device is arguably larger than the other two because the legs don't fold or clamp, but rather rotate together to create the super stable base once opened up; however, what it does offer is the ability to hold an impressive 15.4 lbs out of the box.
You can mount your camera directly to the base or pair with a Leica Ball Head to give yourself more creative control.
The drawback of this device is similar to the Manfrotto's where it is an absolutely rigid design, meaning you're left placing the tripod on a flat surface to use it, reducing the "creative" shots you can get. Also, as with all things Leica, the price jumps significantly when compared to the other brands.

Best Full-Sized Tripods
When nothing else matters but the quality of your image, you'll make sure the tripod and every other accessory attached to your camera is as good as it can get! For this, we've got the top three full-sized professional tripods of the year for you to bring your work to the next level.
Really Right Stuff TVC-33 Versa Series 3 Mk2 Carbon Fiber Tripod with BH-55 Ball Head (Our Choice)
Our Winner for the Best Full-Sized Tripod
Affectionately referred to as the "Rolls Royce" of tripods, the Really Right Stuff TVC 33 Versa Series 3 Mk2 is a beautiful carbon fiber tripod with a diamond-pattern carbon veneer, twist locks, and rubber ball feet for a base. The ball head is solid and incredibly smooth to use which includes panning marks for panoramic work, multiple 90 degree cut outs for when you need to shoot vertically, and separate tension adjustments. Boasting a max weight capacity of 50lbs (wow), it reaches a max height of 62.3″ as well as a minimum height of 7.8″.
The only real drawback of this unit is the max height compared to some other studio/full-sized tripods, and then the price tag. But that's how it goes when you're seeking ultimate quality in your gear.

Manfrotto 546B Tripod Legs with Nitrotech N8 Video Head
Our 2nd Place Winner for the Best Full-Sized Tripod.
When you're looking for a larger, more advanced setup for your photo and video production needs, especially when you're adding a heavier camera system, you're going to love the Manfrotto 546B tripod with N8 Head. This is one of the best video tripods out there, and this model I can personally vouch for. I've been using this for my commercial video work for about a year now and I absolutely love it. The N8 head features an innovative, continuously-adjustable counterbalance system, which allows you to dial in the perfect settings for your rig. I've often used this for my timelapses when I'm in an environment with a LOT going on around me. The bigger footprint helps stabilize my shot to reduce the chance of camera shake.
The drawback of this device is weight and portability. Coming in at 12.5lbs with the video head and a minimum folded length of 27.2″, it's not exactly lightweight; however, it makes up for it in stability and function. There may also be a bit of a learning curve to get past coming from standard ball heads and normal tripods, but once you master it you'll love it.

3 Legged Thing Equinox Winston Carbon Fiber Tripod with AirHed 360 Ball Head
Our 3rd Place Winner for the Best Full-Sized Tripod.
Another entry from the UK-based team of 3 Legged Thing, the Winston tripod is a beast of a tripod. Boasting a load capacity of 88.2 lbs, a max height of 76.9″ and a weight of only 4.7 lbs. it's pretty easy to see why this tripod should be on your radar. The Winston is one of the more uniquely designed tripods given it has not one, but two leg lock systems. The first, an oval-shaped grip that's easy to adjust, and the second system that prevents you from loosening the locks and completely removing a leg section, a surprisingly common headache when dealing with twist lock tripod systems.
The AirHed 360 ball head system is designed to make it faster and easier to level your unit. It also comes with separate locks for both panning adjustments.
The only drawback of this system is the size of the arca swiss mounting plates/head that comes out of the box with this unit. You can replace it with any other arca swiss compatible mounts, but out of the box, the small square plate seems almost toy like when compared to the incredible strength and form of the rest of the tripod.

How to CHoose A Tripod
As we mentioned in the beginning of this post, there are hundreds of options to choose from with new models coming out every year. So before you buy, do some homework to figure out which type and features are right for your needs. There is no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to picking a tripod (or any other accessory), so figuring out what you need out of your tripod will help you narrow down the best tripod for your shooting style.
Do You Need A Tripod?
The tripods sole purpose is to stabilize your camera. So depending on what you're shooting, the tripod could be absolutely vital, or absolutely unnecessary. Some common uses are as follows:
- Taking a long exposure of a landscape or crowd
- Shooting in low light
- Trying to blur the motion of water, clouds, or people
- Shooting a timelapse of a specific scene over a long period of time
- Ensuring your camera is in a specific spot so you can pay attention to other details in your photo
- A portrait or headshot photographer like Peter Hurley might leave their camera on a tripod so that they can communicate with their subjects to help them get the desired look for the shot, triggering the camera remotely
- Videographers will use tripods to avoid "jittery" footage
- Higher quality video tripods with fluid heads will allow motion with panning, tilts, and even slides while eliminating "shakes"
From there, figure out just how high quality you'll want to go. Obviously, there will be many "entry" level tripods for each style for you to choose from, but the quality and durability will be questionable. As with most things, "you get what you pay for" when it comes to camera gear.
If you're really unsure, I'd highly recommend going back and reading the article mentioned in the opening of this post, "The Tripod Explained," which will really help you figure out what exactly your needs are, making your purchase that much easier.
Here is a list of all the gear discussed in this article:
- 3 Legged Thing Equinox Winston Carbon Fiber Tripod with AirHed 360 Ball Head
- Manfrotto 546B Tripod Legs With NitroTech N8 Video Head
- Really Right Stuff TVC-33 Versa Series 3 Mk2 Carbon Fiber Tripod with BH-55 Ball Head (Our Choice)
- Leica Tabletop Tripod
- Manfrotto Pixi Evo Mini Tripod
- Joby Gorillapod 3K (Our Choice)
- Gitzo Series 1 Traveler Tripod with Center Ball Head
- MeFoto Roadtrip Travel Tripod
- 3 Legged Thing Brian with AirHed Neo Ball Head (Our Choice)

It's hard to get past that image. Center column fully extended + camera strap still around your head? Followed by center column fully extended (strap still attached) and finally one image of at least decent practice of no center column extension (though strap is still attached). Tripods are not magic sticks, you need to use them properly to take advantage of the stability they offer. You really shouldn't use a center column unless you have no other option. Also, remove the strap!

# ANGLE - Almost Native Graphics Layer Engine The goal of ANGLE is to allow users of multiple operating systems to seamlessly run WebGL and other OpenGL ES content by translating OpenGL ES API calls to one of the hardware-supported APIs available for that platform. ANGLE currently provides translation from OpenGL ES 2.0 and 3.0 to desktop OpenGL, OpenGL ES, Direct3D 9, and Direct3D 11. Support for translation from OpenGL ES to Vulkan is underway, and future plans include compute shader support (ES 3.1) and MacOS support. ### Level of OpenGL ES support via backing renderers | | Direct3D 9 | Direct3D 11 | Desktop GL | GL ES | Vulkan | |----------------|:-------------:|:----------------:|:--------------:|:-------------:|:-------------:| | OpenGL ES 2.0 | complete | complete | complete | complete | in progress | | OpenGL ES 3.0 | | complete | complete | in progress | not started | | OpenGL ES 3.1 | | not started | in progress | in progress | not started | ### Platform support via backing renderers | | Direct3D 9 | Direct3D 11 | Desktop GL | GL ES | Vulkan | |------------:|:--------------:|:--------------:|:-------------:|:-----------:|:-----------:| | Windows | complete | complete | complete | complete | in progress | | Linux | | | complete | | planned | | Mac OS X | | | in progress | | | | Chrome OS | | | | complete | planned | | Android | | | | complete | planned | ANGLE v1.0.772 was certified compliant by passing the ES 2.0.3 conformance tests in October 2011. ANGLE also provides an implementation of the EGL 1.4 specification. ANGLE is used as the default WebGL backend for both Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox on Windows platforms. Chrome uses ANGLE for all graphics rendering on Windows, including the accelerated Canvas2D implementation and the Native Client sandbox environment. Portions of the ANGLE shader compiler are used as a shader validator and translator by WebGL implementations across multiple platforms. It is used on Mac OS X, Linux, and in mobile variants of the browsers. Having one shader validator helps to ensure that a consistent set of GLSL ES shaders are accepted across browsers and platforms. The shader translator can be used to translate shaders to other shading languages, and to optionally apply shader modifications to work around bugs or quirks in the native graphics drivers. The translator targets Desktop GLSL, Direct3D HLSL, and even ESSL for native GLES2 platforms. ## Sources ANGLE repository is hosted by Chromium project and can be [browsed online](https://chromium.googlesource.com/angle/angle) or cloned with git clone https://chromium.googlesource.com/angle/angle ## Building View the [Dev setup instructions](doc/DevSetup.md).

It is advised to do more study hours though and not pay attention to the minimum need.
A study buddy is one way this chapter tries to influence each woman to do better. A study buddy is having a sister help you along the way with each of your classes and it also helps create a bond with a sister who is the same major as you. We also do several things to motivate our sisters also to help them get better grades.
One way to motivate our sisters is, we do is a skippy jar so you do not skip class. If a sister does not skip any classes, they are eligible to put their name in a jar that gets passed around a chapter that week and at the end of every chapter meeting a name is pulled and they get a little prize (candy, candle, pens/paper... etc.).
Not only is there motivation to finish strong but there is also motivation to start strong and stay strong. At mid-terms, there is a midterm raffle with more prizes (make-up, gift cards, massages.. etc) and depending on your mid-term grades is how much raffle tickets a sister receives.

"The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy."
Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Born in Indianapolis and raised by loving Christian parents, with three sisters, Cat grew up attending public schools and working hard, even as a youngster.
"My family would be considered poor to middle class. My father worked long hard hours and was deacon at our church. My mother was a stay-at-home mom until we were all old enough to go to school. I knew we were poor because I was the beneficiary of hand-me-down clothes from my two elder sisters and my little girlfriend across the street. I worked chores in the house and yard so mother could go to work and then come home to cook the evening meal. My parents believed in family values and my father insisted we all sat down to dinner together every night and he would say grace."
The 70's and 80's brought devastating hardship to Cat's family. Working jobs since she was 17, she watched her father die and her mother struggle.
"I enlisted in the National Guard in 1980 to help pay the bills. I worked two jobs and the National Guard while putting myself through college on a part-time schedule."
Cat graduated Magna Cum Laude in 1995 with a degree in Business from Northwood University.
" I discovered, over time, that you can either let your circumstances define who you are ... or you can meet life's challenges and mold yourself into the person you want to be; I chose the latter."
Today, Cat Ping wants to serve as your voice on Capitol Hill. A voice that echoes your concerns. A voice that matters. A voice that cares.

Fences are installed in warehouse for many reasons: Security, safety, and organization. At Freedom Fence, Inc., we install the warehouse fence that you need to efficiently run your facility in a safe and organized manner.
The most common type of fence used in warehouses is chain link, as it can be installed from floor to ceiling if need be and it provides adequate protection for areas within the warehouse. To make sure you have the fencing that you need, our Minneapolis & St. Paul commercial fence installers listen to your needs and requirements so that you receive the fencing that you need.
Fencing For Many Warehouse Applications
There are many functions for warehouse fencing. Some of them include:
- Workshop fencing – If your warehouse has a workshop area, it can pay to partition off this area to avoid unauthorized individuals from accessing it. Fencing in the workshop area can also keep that section separate from other areas of the warehouse.
- Outdoor perimeter fence – When not at work, one of the things you don't want is for someone to try and trespass. A perimeter fence can ensure that the area is blocked off from outsiders.
- Separation fence – This is indoor fencing that separates the different areas of the warehouse. If employees are to be in one specific area and not another, this type of fencing can ensure everyone stays where they are supposed to be.
- Safety fencing – Trash compactor areas and high voltage areas can be locked away with fencing surrounding them. This ensures that everyone inside the warehouse stays safe when around these areas.
- Security fencing – Just as a perimeter fence adds security to the property, you can add more security inside with fencing. If you have merchandise storage areas or supply areas that need to be locked away so that they are only accessible to specific departments or individuals, you can fence those areas in. This minimizes dangers and even theft.
These are some of the basic applications of warehouse fencing. Of course, you can specify your unique need and we can create a fencing solution for you.
Professional Fence Installation
When you call our Twin Cities commercial fence installers to install your warehouse fencing, we will do a complete walkthrough to determine which type of fencing needs to go where and at what quantity and height. The placement of hardware is also determined. Once the plan is in place and you are ready for the fencing to be installed, we come and perform the fencing installation in a timely manner. Once complete, we do another walkthrough with you to ensure you are 100% satisfied.
Contact A Minneapolis & St. Paul Commercial Fence Installer
Warehouse fencing comes in many forms. They can be used to partition off areas within and outside of a warehouse for either safety reasons or to simply separate one area of the warehouse from the other. If your warehouse is in need of definitive barriers, warehouse fencing can be exactly what you are looking for. To learn more about the warehouse fencing options we can offer you, call us at 763-286-1213 for a free estimate.

New Tomb Raider announcement coming next year
Square Enix has given us an announcement that they will be giving an announcement next year for the next Tomb Raider game.
The following was posted on the official Tomb Raider Facebook and Twitter…
"Square Enix is excited to share some big news with you next year. Honestly, we wish we could share it with you right now, but we're taking a new approach this time.
A new Tomb Raider game is coming.
Driven by our goal of putting the fans first, we want you to know that it won't be very long between the official reveal and when you can play.
Our journey together will begin with a major event in 2018. We simply can't wait to take you on Lara Croft's defining adventure."
There it is, we officially have a new Tomb Raider coming. By the looks of things we can expect to play it in the coming year, potentially. Just looking at this, I am guessing the "major event" is E3 with an expected release date of November, but I could be wrong.
Could this be the Shadow of the Tomb Raider game that was leaked forever ago on a subway and we have not heard of in forever? For those who do not know, it is rumored that Crystal Dynamics, the developer behind the great previous two Tomb Raider games, is not working on Lara Croft's next adventure. Eidos Montreal is expected to be working on the next game. You can read Kotaku's article about that situation HERE.
I am very excited for this. Although I never played the older Tomb Raider games, the reboot and Rise of the Tomb Raider were some of my favorite games on the years they came out and I recommend that anyone try them out if you haven't yet.

If you want to know what a director actually does, and if you want to know what distinguishes a "good" movie from a "bad" movie when both types of movie share a common pool of elements, you could do worse than study Hong Kong director Johnnie To. I mean, taken purely on the level of their plots, To's movies are not particularly distinguished. They're stock genre exercises, most of them. It's what To does with the elements of his movies that make him special. His films chart the geographies of action like no other. He moves his pieces around the board like a chess grandmaster.
Take, for instance, the scene in Vengeance (2009) where Johnny Hallyday's character first hires the team of hit men to find his daughter's murderers. Each of the hit men are shown in a series of crosscut shots walking in specific directions. When they come together in the same frame, there's a sense of an action completed. They're in the EXACT right spots relative to where they've been shown in the previous shots, and from there, the director puts them into motion into the next sequence:
It's fluid. It's carefully composed. It's totally not essential to the movie, but the aggregate of these kinds of shot sequences adds up. You can sense the quality of the filmmaking, especially when the director punctuates them with shots that DO matter. For an action film, the shots that matter are in the action sequences, and here, the director takes the rhythms he's been riffing on in the rest of the movie and kicks out the jams.
Keeping in mind that To makes movies for an action audience, it's worth looking at the action sequences in the same light. The first big action sequence is like a blueprint, in which the hit men retrace the murder of Hallyday's family. It's like the director is going through point by point and showing the audience how he blocks the action, so they know what the hell they're looking at when he's not guiding them by the nose. When the bullets are flying for keeps, the director is very cognizant of where his characters are, what is around them, and how it affects the battle. The first of these scenes is beautifully orchestrated after the filmmakers allow the bad guys to finish a picnic with their families (suggesting a level of honor among killers). The subsequent shootout hinges on the position of the clouds in relation to the moon, of all things. To is a master at putting the elements to work in his movies, something he learned from Kurosawa. There's a further scene in the movie, in which To recreates the essence of one of Kurosawa's big samurai battles in a trash dump, complete with a "king" viewing the action from a pavilion. It's a sequence that stands as one of the glories of the director's output. It's a marvel of motion and color.
The story in Vengeance, while an exercise in stock genre, is more convoluted than one would expect. It's twofold. It's the story of Frank Costello, a chef with a violent past intent on avenging his his daughter's murder. Complicating things is a bullet in his brain that is slowly depriving him of his memory. Costello was written for Alain Delon, and To, for his part, would be a perfect director for Delon, a kind of Asian descendant of Jean-Pierre Melville, whose existential crime films explore many of the same themes. To has Johnny Hallyday to stand in for Delon, and it works. Hallyday is a superior presence. The memory theme is interesting, too, providing the question of what vengeance means. Of what use is it to a man who cannot remember it? The film even puts this question in the mouth of one of its hitmen. This is also the story of the trio of hit men he hires, played by To regulars Lam Suet, Ka Tung Lam, and the ubiquitous Anthony Wong. In taking the job, they unknowingly cross their boss (played by To regular Simon Yam), who does not look kindly on their conflict of interest, and Costello's vengeance suddenly becomes their own. To is on familiar ground here, inhabiting a Hong Kong noir style that he largely invented, and this film forms a thematic trio with The Mission and Exiled. As he does in those films, he tweaks the conventions of the action film to make them sing.

Time to support young carers
A carer is anyone who helps look after someone in their family or a friend. They could be ill, disabled, have mental health problems or be misusing drugs or alcohol.
A carer is anyone who helps look after someone in their family or a friend. They could be ill, disabled, have mental health problems or be misusing drugs or alcohol.
Bristol and South Gloucestershire charity, Carers Support Centre, provides specialist support to carers, including children aged eight to 18. This includes one-to-one and family support, carers' groups, respite activities, short breaks and training.
Carers Support Centre works with 32 local schools through its Young Carers in Education programme. To mark the national Young Carers Awareness Day on January 26, Carers Support Centre has worked with young carers to make a short film, available on YouTube which is being sent to local primary and secondary schools in the area, including those in Bishopston and Redland. The film aims to raise awareness amongst teachers and pupils, and has been part funded by Carers Trust.
In the film, young carer Ellie says: "Even though we spend a lot of our time in our caring roles and doing something a lot of people don't do, we still have ambitions. We still have dreams we want to accomplish in the next couple of years or in the future."
Clayton, from Southmead, is 14 years old and he cares for his brother who has a developmental delay and learning difficulties. In the film he says: "I want to be a doctor and a street dancer!
"My mum is always helping people. She's a nurse and at the moment my mum has injured her back and her leg. I want to be able to be one of those people that can stop that from happening and then maybe one day actually maybe be able to heal her."
There are likely to be young carers in every school and college, but many remain unidentified.
In a Carers Trust survey, 39 per cent said that nobody in their school was aware of their caring role.
Keith Sinclair, Chief Executive of Carers Support Centre, said:"Young carers miss out on their childhood. They can often become isolated due to caring duties, missing out on playing, seeing friends and other leisure activities. They can often miss lessons and as a result, can struggle to keep up with school work and not achieve their potential. They can also suffer from bullying at school."
"Many young carers have no choice but to look after parents and other family members, and many take on this responsibility without a second thought. It is crucial that young carers get the support and help they so desperately need."
Peer support from other people who understand can help many carers feel less alone. Carers Support Centre provides opportunities for carers in Bristol to get together. To find out more contact CarersLine 0117 965 2200 or see www.carerssupportcentre.org.uk.

Why doing-nothing is important for children
Created by Shweta Chopra Updated on Mar 18, 2016
Today's children have the wonderful opportunity of stepping out of their academic limitations and exploring other talents and skills they are naturally blessed with. The modern age allows them to enhance those qualities which push open many doors of success for the children apart from the regular choices. Now a huge platform is available to help them bring out their hidden abilities as singers, dancers, sports men and women and make a career out of their passion.
The only thing taken away from them is the carefree time.
Bound by the demands pressed upon them from an early age to keep up with the needs of their academic curriculum, and their chosen field of passion, their childhood gets compromised somewhere--those carefree afternoons, running in the courtyard with cousins just like that, an evening of aimless chatter, chasing butterflies—seems to have vanished somewhere now! Now, free time is taken over by either rushing between tuition and hobby classes, or PS 4 games, soccer on the virtual screen and an agenda to do this or not that.
But why is this doing-nothing important for children?
- That aimless walk through the street or collecting those pebbles from the park gave us, as children, a mental break and a breather from the pressures of performance. Imagine the same for our little ones. They are not racing against a deadline here or trying to outdo competition. They are just being themselves. Perfect!
- Being themselves, without an agenda or a deadline, helps settle the subconscious patterns of thinking and have a kind of a therapeutic effect on the child's mind.
- Maximum real-time learning happens for the child through his own observation…being in sync with the nature…seeing a pupa and then a butterfly sliding out of it…no teacher or classroom can teach these enriching life experiences in as many words.
How can I help my child stay calm and confident in the face of cut-throat competition?
Yes..my child may be a rockstar dancer or a dynamic upcoming sportsmen but the worry is that is he also learning any skills to still his mind and release stress? Will he know how to handle aggression or defeat in the face of calamity? Is he as emotionally sound as he is in other spheres of life? This is where parents need to let their children breathe!
- Understand your child: Know your child's innate talent. If he says no to a table tennis class and instead wants to go for guitar, let him.
- Give him space to breathe, every day: Just let the child be on his own, anytime during the day. This is the time when there is no nanny or parent hovering over him, no TV or Ipad or smart phone occupying him. Let the child run amok and do what he wants. Clean up the mess later. The clearing up can wait, childhood won't.
- Initiate him into meditation: Besides sports, academics etc., initiate the child into meditation and value-building. This is where The Blessed Kids Club steps in. Our aim is to harness qualities of mindfulness, compassion, acceptance, gratitude and love for nature which seem to go missing keeping the unending track of time in our children.
Happy Parenting!

Thank you Shweta ji... My son is 2. 5 year old. How can I brush his teeth? And what should I use to brush his teeth? I am asking this, because sometimes bad smell come out of his mouth.

understanding the importance of doing nothing and let kids have a carefree time,this summer consciously I have not enrolled my daughter to any summer camps... reading the above article makes me feel even more confident about my decision...
| Apr 21, 2016
Wow ....very beautiful message to all the parents.... This site is a spark to all kids ..parents to know the importance of being a parent
| Mar 27, 2016
Nice article... But for kids if u don't give them any activities than they just watch their cartoons which is just not acceptable so we have to engage them in some work. I think i have to find some meditation centre where they teach children to meditate n b quite for some time. so their concentration improves...
| Mar 20, 2016
Very true!! Loved the article.. I really think in the race to reach our goals we have stopped enjoying the journey.. And thats what we are teaching our kids.. Very well said.. Hope parents understand and put this into practice..
| Mar 19, 2016
Alas this little understanding is completely absent among parents during this cut throat compitition...... everyone is running aimlessly & making their child to do the same.....
| Mar 18, 2016
Nice article .. which can help many parents to understand their kids better.
| Mar 18, 2016
Excellent article... we must give the ideal time to kid.... its very imp for mental growth..
| Mar 18, 2016
Brilliant piece of work! I really get surprised by the way parents beginning from play school itself,instill Competitive skills in their children and stress on winning. All the time we pester kids to outperform others, not share what they do at home,hide info like how much they study, not help others when someone is absent, scold him/her when his rival did better than our own child. It's time we (parents ) take a back seat and let children enjoy what they like doing the most rather than forcing our wishes on them. How much we miss our childhood days similarly , their childhood would never come back again . let us relive our childhood through them and let them do even nothing if they wish to.

A Singapore apartment suite or 'condominium' to put it plainly is a mind boggling venture in which people units are sold. When you purchase a unit in a townhouse, you have singular responsibility for inside the dividers of the unit. In the meantime you have imparted proprietorship to alternate proprietors of the regular property, for example, the lifts, club house, swimming pool, exercise center, tennis courts and other collective offices. An apartment suite is a standout amongst the most widely recognized kinds of lodging in Singapore. Yet, not all condominiums in Singapore are the same. There is an extensive variety of alternatives accessible to take into account distinctive market sections of purchasers.
At the top of the line, there is the extravagance class of condominiums that oblige those with profound pockets. Commonly these are situated in the prime regions of Singapore, in regions like Orchard Road, Keppel Bay and Sentosa.

Engineers of extravagance rivercove ec condominiums save no endeavors to guarantee the mortgage holders will appreciate the finest quality as far as completing, fittings and apparatuses. Offices and pleasantries are additionally top-end. As of late some even draw in the administrations of surely understood planners to make unmistakable building outlines and topics that raise the uniqueness of their ventures.
At that point there are condominiums having a place with the mid-level range. These are regularly situated close to the city borders, in territories like Newton Novena and Tanjong Rhu.

Such apartment suites more often than not have section level evaluating to oblige numerous purchasers who seek to overhaul from open lodging to private property.
Singapore has a special element here. Under the mass market townhouse classification, there is a sub-set of condominiums called Executive Condominiums EC. An EC is a cross breed of open and private lodging presented by the administration. They are estimated lower than private properties to take into account the moderateness of those Singaporeans, specifically youthful experts, who aim for private lodging yet discover costs of private property past their range. However, there are sure guidelines and confinements overseeing the ECs, including a 5-year least inhabitance period by the proprietor before they are permitted to offer it in the resale advertise. Also, they can just pitch to outsiders following 10 years.
