text: Bluefin significantly reduces spend on expenses through tighter controls. Reduces time to approve valid claims and return inaccurate claims from hours to minutes. Challenge: Reduce the paper mountain and gain tighter control of expenses. Solution: Selenity Expenses Results: Reduction in expense claim spend, greater policy support, reduction in claim processing time from hours to minutes. Bluefin is a UK insurance broker with 1450 staff working across 61 branches in 48 locations, supporting thousands of clients with insurance that protects their assets, revenues, people and lifestyle. With a strong focus on providing local service, Bluefin operates nationally with offices from Southampton to Edinburgh and Glasgow. Paper-mountain Back in 2011 the company was facing an expenses 'paper mountain' – at least 500 staff submitting expenses on paper, with supporting receipts, and with the company processing and reimbursing once a month. Every staff member was able and permitted to submit expense claims so at any time the workload for the admin team could increase. The team was responsible for manually reviewing each claim for legitimacy and to ensure they were signed off by a branch manager before manually entering each expense item into its Sage accounting system. Understandably, each claim could take up to an hour to process [longer if follow up calls and emails were needed]. Duplicate claims, and problems with accurate mileage payments were difficult to control. Linda Aikman, Expense Management Team, Bluefin says: "We had no formal expenses policy in place. Understandably, our process was open to human error – staff could unintentionally overstate mileage claims by rounding-up journey distances, they might pay tips on food bills above a reasonable level or possibly submit excessively high subsistence rates. With no formal policy in place, expense claims were hard to control." At the end of 2011, Bluefin decided to overhaul its expenses and finance tools and procedures, implementing a new expenses system and an accompanying staff expenses policy. The team reviewed four expenses software management providers wishing to automate its expenses processes and procedures. One provider offered a purely mobile-solution, which would not work with some of Bluefin's less tech-savvy team members. One provider offered a mixed software and paper-based solution, which Bluefin did not feel would reduce its admin burden. From the two remaining providers, Selenity Expenses was chosen because of its advanced reporting capability, sophisticated rules, the high value-to-cost ratio, and the support, experience and approach offered by the team. Leading Online Employee Expenses Solution The deployment process for cloud-based Selenity Expenses started with a face-to-face 'kick off meeting' in Jan 2012 during which Selenity worked with Bluefin to identify employee data which could be entered into the system, for example employee details, addresses, line managers, etc. Once imported to the system, a second onsite configuration workshop and training session was held for Bluefin's administrators. User acceptance testing followed with Bluefin's project management team, where they could enter dummy expense claims to test out the system. After this, full access was rolled out to Bluefin's employees. The entire system was live by the second week of April. Linda adds: "The transition was very smooth and did not impact on our operations at all." Selenity Expenses is available to Bluefin's staff via the internet, whether that be in the office, in a coffee shop, or in an airport lounge on a mobile phone, PC or tablet. Its employees do not need to purchase additional software or hardware. They just need access to a web-browser and the internet. Making an impact In the first few months of employment, all staff members at Bluefin require a company induction, which takes place in London. All staff travelling to London will submit a travel claim and will therefore use the Selenity Expenses system at least once. On average though Bluefin is processing around 500 claims per month. Selenity Expenses works hand-in-hand with a new expenses policy developed by Bluefin around the same time. The software is helping to manage expense claims in line with the new policy. Linda says: "Staff submit expense claims electronically, scanning receipts to support each claim. No paper is kept. A local branch manager will review claims; depending on the policy, the claim can be approved for payment instantly or flagged for review by the admin team. For example, a claim over £5000 pounds would be automatically sent by the system to COO for approval." Many staff use Selenity's mobile application, Expenses Mobile, to submit claims. The organisation is moving to an Apple mobile environment, but the application is flexible and works with a range of devices including Apple, Blackberry and Android. From an admin perspective, Bluefin has configured the flexible expenses system to give five named people access to the system to create intelligent expense management reports. The system includes unlimited standard report formats. Reports such as spend by department or total subsistence claims are automatic, but the software has also enabled Bluefin to create custom reports using the reports wizard, for example total mileage claims, individual journeys, spend on Christmas parties, travel booked personally versus travel booked through the company's official supplier. The reports are created with drag and drop functionality, which are being exported to Excel for interrogation. Selenity Expenses can also let users view reports on screen or pivot chart for graphical interrogation. Company wide benefits The software is supporting Bluefin's expenses policy. It helps Bluefin enforce agreed expense allowances – for example approving only up to 10 per cent tips paid on lunches or flagging expenses over £100 spent on entertainment. It enables flagged expenses to be sent for review to finance, HR or line managers or even the COO It enables expense claims to be reimbursed twice per month, up from once per month, direct by BACS to the employees bank account The software helps to flag repeat 'offenders' or staff making repeated mistakes It reduces accidental duplication of expense claims by staff Bluefin is reducing money spent on mileage claims because the system can check start and finish postcodes to provide a more accurate distance calculation It is storing detailed information for auditing purposes – either internal or by HMRC. The software benefits employees too: "The software for submitting expenses claims is easy to use and the claims process is now so simple," says William Gillis, Financial Risks Development Director, Bluefin. "If we're working in the office or out with clients, we can submit the claim there and then, scanning and submitting receipts as we go. This is really helping me to keep track, submit and reclaim money owed on time." Reducing costs Despite considerable company growth and an increase in team size, Selenity Expenses is helping to reduce Bluefin's spend on expense claims. Linda adds: "The time taken to approve an accurate claim has reduced from around an hour to just 5-minutes. It's really only claims with flags that take any time, but even processing these has reduced considerably. The software continues to be a key part of the Bluefin's operations in 2014 and plans are in place to expand use of features such as mobile submission of claims.

Canada web hosting
Опубликовано: 08.08.2017
If you are looking to start business online, there are some ways to go about it that will bring the best results. Though you can start working on your website's design, you must choose a company that will allow others to see it. There are different questions that shoppers ask about the matter.
What do you think is a Web hosting provider? Web hosting is the service of maintaining files for one or more Web sites. Additionally, without website hosts, you'd have to learn how to manage server and keep it up to date. Whereas the problem with starting a new project is that you don't really know what your specific needs are going to be in the future. Hosting providers are responsible for the internet connection and making sure the server is available all the time. At present, as technology has progressed different types of web hosting have appeared to meet the some needs of websites. Because shared web hosting is very popular type of web hosting, most hosting companies usually call it as website hosting. Such hosting is a perfect platform for those that have modest hosting needs, particularly blogs. VPS hosting divides a server into virtual servers, where each websites is like hosted on their own dedicated server, but they are really sharing a resources with a few different clients. There was only few examples.
Looking for a good web hosting solution is a big hassle. In essence, if you are thinking about own web-site, or searching for the perfect service to host your web-site, canada web hosting is one of the best choices available. Also with canada web hosting, you pay a price for space and providers on a web hosting company's server. There were just few examples. However, there are divers of companies for you to choose where to sign up for hosting. Additionally, don't disregard the importance of using the WEB. Additionally you will also notice that most web hosts have sundry plans, each at different prices. Surely it isn't all. We can be talking the matter after.
In summary, if you desire to be booming, you have to identify your main objective in advance. Once you've chosen the web-hosting, take a time to think about domain for your site.

For as long as I can remember, the holiday season means more than just family, friends, and goodwill toward men; it means James Bond marathons on remote cable channels. TNT and then Spike TV used to pick either Thanksgiving or Christmas and bombard the week surrounding it with nothing but 007. The resulting days-long fever dream of different actors and different eras, scheduled hopelessly out of order and interrupted by commercials and punch breaks, leaves one with a hungover appreciation of James Bond as an uneven, unchanging and ever-adaptive whole.
But good luck keeping the movies straight if you don't already have them committed to memory. Perhaps this is why, to this day, my favorite Bond movies are routinely the most reviled in the franchise, a fact my brother and I joke about every year when we voluntarily watch A View to a Kill, The Man With the Golden Gun and Diamonds Are Forever. Seeing a revolving door of Bonds dance to twenty-plus melodies that hit the same notes yet all sound slightly different blurs the line from one mission to the next, from Connery to Craig.
So I've put together this handy guide to the franchise to help you and yours identify, appreciate and — should the situation call for it — avoid your way through the entire James Bond series.
Dr. No (1962) — The Budget Bond. In 2017 dollars, the inaugural 007 adventure cost about as much as a single episode of Stranger Things. Sean Connery manages to cement the character into modern legend, despite only getting to run around a beach and a prototypical evil lair. The iconography doesn't date. The yellowface villain does.
From Russia With Love (1963) — The Pivotal Bond. The critical darling that turned a fluke into a franchise. Everyone and that movie guy their brother knows lauds this as the high-water mark, which is why half of all other Bond movies riff on it. Perhaps the most grounded espionage of any entry. A game of cat and mouse on the grim and gritty streets of Istanbul, with one of the best cats the franchise ever had in Red Grant (Robert Shaw).
Goldfinger (1964) — The Blockbuster Bond. The one that made the mold, for better or worse. Eccentric villain with a walking gimmick of a right-hand man. Half-fanciful, half-absurd gadgets like ejector seats and cigarette-size tracking devices. Needlessly but deliciously drawn-out death traps like the infamous groin laser. An over-the-top grand finale set to the beat of a literal ticking time bomb. Between Russia and Goldfinger, the two extremes of the franchise were set: the gritty and the gonzo.
Thunderball (1965) — The Slow Bond. These movies are never short – only six out of 25 come in under two hours – but few feel as slow as this. Goldfinger 2, for the most part, with sea substituted for sky and the languid pace to match. Trying to spot Bond in the half-hour of underwater fights is harder than a Where's Waldo and half as fun. A familiar flavor of overblown adventure, but it's hard to get past the scene of Bond blackmailing his nurse for sex.
You Only Live Twice (1967) — The Parody Bond. Freshens the formula with space-age lunacy. Almost every ingredient is grist for the parody mill; Austin Powers pulled most of his tricks from Twice, down to the exact appearance of Dr. Evil. Giant spaceships that look like up-ended coffee pots. The gold-standard of evil lairs, hidden within a fake volcano. But if you look too hard, you can see Sean Connery get bored in real time, even under the regrettable prosthetics that "turn" him Japanese.
On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969) — The Hip Bond. Formerly the black sheep, now the one-hit wonder. George Lazenby's first, last, and only mission has aged considerably better than its contemporaries. Ahead-of-its-time action courtesy of series editor-turned-director Peter R. Hunt. A Swiss location that doubles as a breathtaking travelogue. And the surprise that changed the franchise – Bond gets married. Considering he'd never acted before, Lazenby does a better job with the newly vulnerable Bond than he has any right to.
Diamonds Are Forever (1971) — The Campy Bond. The first Bond of the 1970s, and boy does it show. Sean Connery returns with bushier eyebrows and slightly more enthusiasm for what should've been a Roger Moore movie. Homosexual hitmen, an attempt to get with the times, land like cast-offs from Adam West's Batman without the knowing wink. The moon landing is casually confirmed fake just so Bond can steal a floppy-armed buggy. Country singer and sausage czar Jimmy Dean appears. Worth it for the trip to old Las Vegas.
Live and Let Die (1973) — The Blaxploitation Bond. Not as racist as you might think. Subtly implies the black villains use stereotypes to fool the profile-happy CIA, but doesn't do much with it. First in a stretch of Bond movies contorted to cash in on cinematic trends. Roger Moore's refreshingly light touch and inability to pronounce "Kananga" without adding an "-r" at the end keep everything from getting too murky. Yaphet Kotto's performance and one of the greatest vehicular stunts of all-time make it a must-see.
The Man With The Golden Gun (1974) — The Kung-Fu Bond. Almost as racist as you might think. While Bond's martial artistry stops at Moore's signature neck chop, every Asian character would put Bruce Lee to shame. A big, sloppy mix of energy crisis paranoia, fake nipples, underwritten women and a beguiling villain, Christopher Lee's Scaramanga, that deserved a better movie. Still more fun than its reputation suggests.
The Spy Who Loved Me (1977) — The Platonic Ideal Bond. Stuck between derivative entries, a true original. Everything you'd want in a Bond movie if you happen to be me. Exotic locales. A leading lady every bit his equal. A tastefully grand evil lair. The first (and, to date, last) submersible Bond car. Rogerly wit in top form. About the only thing it steals is the name Jaws, but only to create the series' most memorable heavy. Moore's best and no slouch for the franchise.
Moonraker (1979) — The Star Wars Bond. Says enough that the producers rushed this to theaters instead of For Your Eyes Only, the movie promised in the end credits of the last one. As silly as Bond gets. When 007 pilots a hover-gondola through Venice, a pigeon double-takes through the magic of terrible editing. Jaws falls in love. The laser-tag finale is what everyone remembers, but most of the action on Earth is good enough to make you think they belong to other Bonds.
For Your Eyes Only (1981) — The Sober Bond. After a clumsy opening that starts with Bond visiting his wife's grave and ends with him gleefully dropping a wheelchair-bound bad guy from a chopper into a smokestack, it gets pretty heavy. Most Bonds get a revenge-minded mission. This is Moore's, and it remains a potent reminder that he was more than just an arched eyebrow. Taut, grounded and occasionally chilly. Come for the change of pace and nail-biting mountainside finale, stay for the funky synth score from Rocky composer Bill Conti.
Octopussy (1983) — The Saturday Matinee Bond. The first produced after Raiders of the Lost Ark, though by no means a rip-off. A jewel-encrusted MacGuffin. A safari for the most dangerous game in a jungle lousy with man-eaters. A breathless chase over, under, and around a circus train that beat Last Crusade to the punch by six years. The cliffhangers come fast and ludicrous, but the stunt work sells every minute of it. Maud Adams plays a great Bond woman with a terrible Bond name.
Never Say Never Again (1983) — The Cannon Films Bond. The infamous company that gave us Chuck Norris and Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo had nothing to do with this, but it sure smells like it did. A knock-off with a lurid edge on its source material. Special effects that only sometimes are. Sets left over from that week's MacGyver. A bankable star slightly past his prime and paid well for the privilege. But Sean Connery is having an obvious blast and Empire Strikes Back director Irvin Kershner builds a better Thunderball. The late, great Bernie Casey deserved another go as Felix Leiter.
A View to a Kill (1985) — The Bond Too Far. A just-shy-of-60 Bond wouldn't be so painfully noticeable if the story were tailored to him. Instead, he's made to charm a 20-something Tanya Roberts, seduce a forever-ageless Grace Jones, and physically best a spry-for-Christopher-Walken Christopher Walken atop the Golden Gate Bridge. John Barry's unexpectedly moving score belongs in a better movie. Moore admitted he should've stopped at Octopussy, and when he snowboards to "California Girls" by The Beach Boys, it's hard to disagree.
The Living Daylights (1987) — The 1980s Bond. Cold War defections under cover of night. An AIDS-conscious lack of frivolous sex. The Russians are evil. The Taliban is good. There's an A-ha song. For better or worse, Bond took a hard look at the world around him and grew up. The difference between Timothy Dalton's take and Moore's is the difference between a hitman and a game show host. An engagingly grounded and politically dated tangle of faked assassinations, delusional arms dealers, and refreshed stunts that haven't lost any punch.
License to Kill (1989) — The Miami Vice Bond. Good guys and bad guys alike sweat through loud suits in the tropical heat, chasing money, narcotics, and each other in a tale of greed, betrayal, and red-hot revenge. Guest starring Wayne Newton. Besides the split-second appearance of ninjas, License remains a gritty and aggressive Bond adventure. It's more than satisfying watching Bond tear down a drug lord's empire brick by cocaine brick. Dalton does almost too many of his own stunts, especially in the staggering tanker chase. Q almost makes off with the whole movie.
GoldenEye (1995) — The Revolutionary Bond. Few things could derail James Bond like the Cold War ending. Fortunately, GoldenEye made a blockbuster case for 007's continued employ. Pierce Brosnan brings back a welcome dose of boyish levity just in time for Judi Dench's M to have no patience for it. Smart script. Smarter direction. Not a bad character or forgettable set-piece in the bunch. The Cradle finale is a perfect marriage of jaw-dropping location, unbearable tension, and ferocious choreography. An exemplary Bond adventure.
Tomorrow Never Dies (1997) — The Bland Bond. GoldenEye was so successful that the sequel was given a hard release date and one directive – beat GoldenEye. The resulting mad dash turned out an almost movie. Almost interesting villain. Almost interesting plot. Even the stunts feel standard. The only bright spot on this generally dim stage is Michelle Yeoh as Wai Lin. Best watched while you're also doing something else. The too-good gif of Bond playing Mario Kart in the backseat of a swerving car comes from Tomorrow, and the original scene is a highlight.
The World is Not Enough (1999) — The Comic Book Bond. Pushes everything a wary inch past plausibility. The villain this time isn't just crazy – he can't feel pain. The gadgets aren't just practical – they let him see through people's clothes. The Bond woman isn't just a rocket scientist – she's Denise Richards. A low blow, but even the action sequences, including a chainsaw-wielding helicopter, toe the line of believability in the same pulpy way. The plot's collateral damage, but it's some kind of fun.
Die Another Day (2002) — The Video Game Bond. Pierce Brosnan and Roger Moore's least favorite Bond movie. That should say plenty. Combines ham-fisted darkness (North Korean torture) with dim-witted fun (CGI windsurfing) to ruinous effect. You know your Bond's in trouble when the most creatively loaded name they can come up with is "Mr. Kil." All the fun and hollow imitation of playing a lazy video-game tie-in. You'll tolerate the cutscenes to play the fun parts, but when they still look rendered by a Playstation 2, you'll wish you'd skipped it altogether.
Casino Royale (2006) — The Cold Bond. The unexpected one-two punch of Austin Powers and 9/11 forced Bond back to basics. Daniel Craig's 007 is a walking hair trigger that doesn't enjoy going off, even as he fears that's all he's built for. Casino Royale isn't without its moments of levity – Bond electing to break through drywall instead of parkouring his way through an air duct comes to mind – but it's really a gritty thriller with a dark heart. The Madagascar foot chase should be studied in film schools.
Quantum of Solace (2008) — The Sloppy Bond. Cut off at the knees by a writer's strike and forced to crawl, Quantum of Solace is the shortest Bond of the bunch and still feels an hour longer than Thunderball. Even the simplest fist-fight feels overshot and fed to a blender. Its angle as a direct sequel chokes it in the monumental shade of its ground-breaking predecessor. At best, it feels like rightfully deleted scenes from Casino Royale. At worst, it's a headache.
Skyfall (2012) — The Arthouse Bond. In time for the 50th anniversary of Bond on the big screen, Skyfall provided a visceral treatise on its hero's impossible endurance by breaking as many rules as it followed. What begins as a standard mission brilliantly deconstructs 007 until he's running down the halls of his childhood home with a double-barrel shotgun trying to save the only family he has left. Award-winning direction and cinematography. Judi Dench's finest hour. Everything a modern Bond should be.
Spectre (2015) — The Modern Bond. Everything a modern Bond shouldn't be. Retroactive ties to past movies are gracelessly shoehorned in by a villain who's connected to Bond's barren past for no other reason other than that's what worked in Skyfall. And of course said villain planned for every little thing that happens to Bond, even if time, space, and logic would suggest otherwise. I haven't named the villain because his identity is naturally a big twist that's one quarter surprising and three pointless. 007 by way of the Cinematic Universe.
Twenty-five movies, six actors, 227 units of alcohol and a partridge in a pear tree. Happy Holidays. Hope you get a little Bonding in.

Wow, Its been a long time since I have been part of fiber art friday. This season for our family has been a busy one. I am still working on getting into more o f a rhythm with everything and squeezing in more time for fiber work. My hubby is still battling with chronic migraines and the botox injections seem to help for the most part expect for the weeks leading up to the next dose and about a week after. (36 shots in his head and neck - no wonder he isn't feeling well after) Our youngest is now 2 and getting into everything. He loves to climb on top of everything keeping us all on our toes. Today was a no nap day for him. Oh boy. He is wild today. Not looking forward to no more naps. That is my best time to get caught up. My other 3 kids have been helping out with the farm chores and enjoying homeschooling. They also have been keeping little man entertain so I can try to tackle my large fiber stash. I have so much to wash still and shearing day will be here before I know it.
It feels so good to finally carve some time out of my busy schedule to play with fiber. I really enjoy dyeing it and creating beautiful colors on these gloomy days of winter. We had another frigid couple of days this week -29 with wind chills of -45. Between all the the farm chores and breaking ice and refilling the water buckets four times a day (the heated buckets could just not keep up with the temps and alpacas drink more water when its cold) I was able to find some time to dye and card.. And Isabel made a pair of wet felted jingle balls. She loves making them. :)
The month of January I have also been working on getting our Etsy Shop setup as well as giving our website a little makeover still more to come. Let me know what you think..
Want to see more of the fiber I dyed earlier this week click the picture below :)

Mariners Mini Morsels: January 5
"He's [Logan Morrison] lost weight," general manager Jack Zduriencik said. "He's in great shape. He feels better than he's felt in the last couple of years, but he's coming off an injury. We have to be careful on how we handle that." Source: Bob Dutton at The News Tribune
Potential Logan Morrison bonuses on top of $1.75M base break down as follows: $75K for 450 PA, $100K for 500, $100K for 550, $75K for 600. From: Jeff Passan at Yahoo! Sports
"A lot of positive developments and influences," Zduriencik said. "The players see that we're doing it right and it makes them think positively. It has impact." Zduriencik thinks of the Seahawks' success, but recognizes the reality of the situation. "Of course, I'm not foolish enough to say we'll have the same results," he said. But he also notes how he had been urged to deal Hernandez a few years back. "The way I saw it, teams are always looking for a starting pitcher to get them to the World Series … We already have one." Just in case. Source: Marty Noble at MLB.com

How much is overpaying? From:Bob Dutton at The News Tribune
I'd say anything north of 2/16 is probably a waste. He'll get more than that, I'm sure. From:Dave Cameron at FanGraphs
My guess is he lands 3/36 or something in that range. Not catastrophe that 5/75 would have been, but still not good. From: Dave Cameron at FanGraphs
AL West Commentary
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson still plans to appear at the Texas Rangers' spring training, according to his baseball agent Mark Rodgers. The Rangers start spring training in Surprise, AZ on Feb. 16 when the pitchers and catchers are scheduled to report.
Wilson played baseball in high school and was selected by the Baltimore Orioles in the 41st round of the 2007 MLB draft before going to North Carolina State to play quarterback. Wilson was drafted again by the Colorado Rockies in the fourth round of the 2010 MLB draft and played second base in Single-A ball for two seasons with Tri-City and Asheville. The Rangers acquired Wilson from the Rockies in December in the MLB Rule 5 draft. Jon Morosi at Fox Sports

A federal bankruptcy judge Tuesday placed the parent company of Comcast SportsNet Houston under Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, clearing the way for the start of what could be a contentious, complicated path to make the troubled regional sports network a financially profitable concern. U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Marvin Isgur's order came at the conclusion of a day-long hearing at which attorneys for Comcast and the Rockets asked that the case remain under bankruptcy court jurisdiction and the Astros asked that the case be dismissed.
Dismissal would have resulted in the almost certain demise of the 16-month-old network owned by the Astros, Rockets and Comcast, which is owned by a limited partnership known as Houston Regional Sports Network. Isgur's order assures that the network will remain in operation while the three network partners work on a reorganization plan. A key to that plan will be arranging the carriage agreements that management has thus far been unable to arrange with such major carriers as DirecTV, Dish Network, AT&T U-verse and Suddenlink. CSN Houston at present is available to no more than 40 percent of the Houston area's 2.2 million TV households. Source: David Barron at the Houston Chronicle
Mariner's potential off-season targets
Mariners seem very much in mix for Fernando Rodney. M's were 19-29 in one-run games and a league-worst 6-15 in extra inning games. The Orioles also are a possibility.
"Apparently you didn't watch Rodney pitch last year. Finding the plate is somewhat essential as closer. Thank God you're not making the decisions." —From blog commenter ramman at CBS
(Rodney walked 4.86/9 last season, in 2011 he walked 7.88/9 and struck out 7.31/9 for the Angels, they didn't want him back, why should we want him?)

Two pitchers who were expected to land big-dollar free agent deals this offseason – Ubaldo Jiménez and Ervin Santana – remain unsigned. While some have speculated that the Masahiro Tanaka sweepstakes held up deals for other front-end starters, there's also the possibility that teams are simply afraid to commit significant resources to pitchers with such an inconsistent recent track record. Both Jiménez and Santana were below replacement level within the last two seasons; in 2012, Santana was worth -1.3 WAR, and Jiménez was -0.6 WAR. Last season, Santana was worth 2.9 WAR and Jiménez was worth 2.7 WAR. This recent track record of sub-replacement performance bodes poorly for their ability to land a lucrative free agent deal – in the history of free agency, only four starting pitchers have signed free agency deals with an average annual value of $10 million or more after posting a below-replacement level season in at least one of the two preceding seasons. Source: Justin Havens at ESPN [Insider needed and recommended]
Santana is said to have dropped significantly, perhaps to a three-year deal. Was over $100 million in November. From: Buster Olney at ESPN
It has been more than a month since any free agent who turned down a qualifying offer has signed, with five remaining on the table — Ubaldo Jimenez, Ervin Santana, Nelson Cruz, Stephen Drew and Kendrys Morales. The players scheduled to hit the market next fall can draw an important lesson from this group: Don't get caught in the "Dead Zone."
If you're traded during the season, as Matt Garza was last winter, then your team can't extend a qualifying offer, and you avoid draft-pick purgatory. If you have a great season, as Shin-Soo Choo did, then you shift out of the Dead Zone. But if you are a good veteran who has a solid season — but not a great season — well, then you might get stuck.

Sources:Dodgers remain in active talks with free agent starter Bronson Arroyo. From: Jon Morosi at Fox Sports
Draft, Prospects & Farm News
The Mariners still have a pressing need for an impact right-handed bat, preferably one they can stash in their outfield. And, yes, they remain linked in the ever-grinding rumor mill to free agent Nelson Cruz. But if a Cruz deal, or something similar, fails to materialize, well, again … why not [Stefen] Romero? "We've talked about Stefen all winter," Mariners general manager Jack Zduriencik agreed. "This guy could really be a player for us. He gives you power. He gives you the ability to hit. It's up to him." Romero was among the handful of "future stars" the Mariners brought to Safeco Field in late January for their two-day FanFest. If nothing else, that suggests he is in line for a long spring look.
"We were awfully left-handed last year," new Seattle manager Lloyd McClendon said. "So we need some balance. We've talked about right-handed bats and where we get that from." It's a pivotal year for Romero, who at 25 is at that age where evaluations tend to shift firmly from potential to production; i.e., from being a prospect to a player. A year ago, Romero entered camp as a top prospect after a breakout minor league season in which he batted .352 with 23 homers and 101 RBI while splitting 116 games between Class A High Desert and Class AA Jackson. He then flexed some early spring muscle before suffering a strained left oblique injury. Shortly after he returned to active duty in mid-April, the Mariners shifted him from second base to left field at Class AAA Tacoma. Source: Bob Dutton at The News Tribune

The Baltimore Orioles and Texas Rangers are the leading contenders among four or five teams interested in Korean pitcher Suk-min Yoon, reports the Korean JoongAng Daily. Andrew Rickli of SportsReel Boston reports the Rangers are showing interest, especially following Derek Holland's surgery for a knee injury.
The 27-year-old right-hander, considered the Korean league's best pitcher, threw in a tryout for the Orioles and Giants on Saturday in California. Yoon reportedly was out to show MLB teams he is healthy amidst questions of his durability.
In nine seasons in Korea, Yoon has pitched 11 complete games and six shutouts in 1,129 innings, with an ERA of 3.19. He injured his Achilles' tendon and right shoulder in 2009 following his second season as a starter. His career best — 17-5 record with a 2.45 ERA and 178 strikeouts in 2011 — earned him the league's Most Valuable Player award.
By The Numbers
Since 2000, its first full season, here is how Safeco Field has ranked among the 30 major league parks in slugging percentage: 28, 29, 23, 28, 25, 27, 25, 20, 22, 26, 30, 28, 30, 17. (The park did play slightly fairer last year because the fences were brought in.) Measured by its effect on home runs, rather than raw numbers, Safeco Field in the past decade has ranked 21, 29, 13, 29, 24, 20, 16, 18, 26, 14. Source: Tom Verducci at Sports Illustrated

Opened in 1987 and then the northern tip of the rapid transit line running south to Atlanta, the Chamblee MARTA Station is bounded by New Peachtree and Peachtree Roads on the east and west, and Chamblee Tucker Road to the south. Rail stations such as this, which are serviced by bus routes, are vital cogs in MARTA (Metropolitan Atlanta Transit Authority)—the ninth-largest of the county's interurban transit systems designed to alleviate traffic congestion.
Bird's-eye view of rapid transit facility at 5200 New Peachtree Road, showing some of its more than 1,700 parking spaces.
Authorized by the Georgia legislature in 1965 and founded in 1971, MARTA began as a bus system after purchasing the old Atlanta Transit Company. Five Points became the hub of the subsequent MARTA rail system, opening its East-West line in 1979 and the North-South in 1981.
Like nearly all MARTA stations, the one at Chamblee has a boldly designed roof and serves as a highly visible civic monument. The superstructure is generally uncluttered by billboards and deliberately has little public seating, to discourage loitering. Chamblee Station has an elevated island platform with a good view, and from here many commuters begin and end the fastest part of their daily treks.

I am so excited to share these songs with you. Whether you are someone I love dearly, or someone I am yet to meet, I pray that these songs would be a source of encouragement and would bring healing where it is needed.
It was only a couple of years ago that I came to the realization that I had a story to tell and a song to sing – not just a voice to be heard. We all have stories to share, and I am blessed to do this through music. These particular songs are about experiences and life lessons that I have encountered, all with one theme running through them. God created you and me in His image and no matter how we feel on any given day, the one thing that doesn't change is His undying love for us.

After officially joining the band 'Sons of Korah' as a support act and a backing vocalist in 2016, I decided to record a CD. This had always been the plan in previous years but I felt really led to record it after having a conversation with a stranger after the end of a Sons of Korah performance. He had expressed his desire to be able to take the songs that I had sung home with him and show them to a loved one who would benefit from hearing them. After leaving him, I felt a great responsibility and desire to be able to use my songs and music as a vehicle for others to use for their own personal encouragement and healing.

Special Education
The Special Education program area at Wayne State University is located within the Teacher Education Division (TED) of the College of Education. The various special education programs prepare teachers to work with young children, youth, and young adults with disabilities in public and private school settings.
The special education programs are designed as endorsement programs that meet the Michigan Department of Education Special Education Rules for teacher preparation in the areas of:
- Cognitive Impairment (CI)
- Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)*
The goal of the Special Education program is to prepare teachers to use current research-based and recommended practices while providing research-to-practice opportunities to broaden their knowledge and scholarship. We believe that special education must function as an integral and complementary component of best practices in the education for all students. We support the movement towards inclusive education for students with mild to severe disabilities, and see best instructional practices in general education as supporting the growth and development of students with disabilities. We believe that special educators have important roles to play in building a unified system of schooling that supports learning of all students. Leadership is needed to make these goals a reality. It is the purpose of our program to provide one important avenue of leadership development.
The CI program is offered both for undergraduate, initial teacher certification and as a graduate endorsement program. The ASD endorsement is a cohort only program offered at the graduate level.
*Note: The Autism Spectrum Disorder concentration is offered solely as a cohort program.
On April 14, 2016 the Special Education program for the College of Education hosted a School Symposium on Belonging below is the video of this very special event.

In this article we study organizational learning with respect to environmental management or corporate greening in six UK water and electricity utilities, concentrating on information acquisition and dissemination. We find that companies make use of a variety of information acquisition strategies, including learning from experience, e.g. environmental incidents leading to prosecution; learning by observing other organizations (bench-marking); by importing environmental knowledge through outside experts and management systems and by building up an information searching and collecting system. Environmental managers play a heavy role in acquiring and disseminating information. We feel that, while organizations try to rationalize environmental learning and make it as efficient as possible, a lack of redundancy of information, heavy reliance on a limited number of outside sources of expertise and the use of environmental management systems may also bring with it the danger of institutionalizing environmental management and closing environmental questions prematurely.

It's OK, Josh, I swear
I once heard locker rooms for professional sports teams described as life with the volume turned up. And it's no different on the sidelines.
It's a surreal existence, pro sports, and never is it more surreal than during those three hours on NFL game day. No other sport in any other league at any other level is as violent and emotional as the NFL. It makes men who are otherwise cool, calm and collected act like, to quote a famous NFL Films sound bite, a bunch of crazed dogs.
Which brings us to Josh McDaniels. He's normally cool, calm and collected. But not on game day. All bets are off on game day, so to speak. On game day, J-Mac can be just as enraged and outraged as the players. He just doesn't slam into other players at full speed.
And so it was that, when an NFL Network microphone ventured too close to the Broncos' bench on Thanksgiving night, it came as little surprise that it caught McDaniels spewing blue to the players after three had been flagged for false-start penalties on the same drive.¶
Had it been, say, a sunny day in August, McDaniels probably would have barked a little and let it go. But it wasn't. It was game day. There are only 16 of them, 16 passion plays that comprise a team's season. So yes, with so much at stake, the participants wear their emotions on their sleeves. Even if one happens to be wearing a hoodie with only virtual sleeves.
We shouldn't hold McDaniels' infamous sound bite against him. It came in the heat of battle, in the emotion of the moment, in a fit of frustration. We shouldn't congratulate him, certainly, but we shouldn't condemn him, either.
Stuff happens on game day. Always has, always will.

Marvelous Mudrooms With Style and Function
With so many functions to perform — and so much stuff to corral — it can be hard to make your mudroom a thing of beauty. But function doesn't have to trump style. Efficient, cozy and bursting with color and natural light, these 10 marvelous mudrooms will make you rethink how you use your own. They may even inspire you to give this tiny room its biggest upgrade yet.
Top 14 Kitchen Storage Ideas
A crisp white palette with pops of colour helps keep this mudroom looking neat and tidy. Built-in shelving that reaches right to the ceiling lets this tiny room max out on storage.
Designed by Brian Gluckstein, this classic country mudroom comes equipped with a small built-in bench and supersized storage closets. An umbrella basket offers a decorative element that's also functional.
This mudroom may be small, but it's certainly hardworking. With both open and closed storage, the tall cabinet is perfect for storing shoes and hanging coats, while a couple of shallow drawers keep odds and sods out of sight.
With its mix of simple breadboard panelling, bubbly turquoise flooring and summertime accessories, this hardworking nook is cottagey without being too sweet.
Dramatically painted chocolate finishes and deep grey flooring bring character to this spacious mudroom. Windows on every wall create a natural light-filled oasis.
A practical flooring option for mudrooms, stone does a good job at hiding dirt from the great outdoors. The rustic tile is contrasted with creamy white panelled walls and a painted chest with hidden storage.
A miniature desk/vanity perched between two tall storage units brings even greater function to this back entrance. Wall hooks placed right next to the door ensure that little ones don't leave without their belongings.
Equipped with a standstill shower and catch-all wicker baskets, this mudroom is just the place to stop dirt in its tracks. A skylight brings light to the otherwise closed off space.
Designed by our very own Lynda Reeves, this modern mudroom is lively and uplifting thanks to varying shades of blue and green. Laundry appliances are tucked beneath the countertop, creating a double-duty space that still reads as sleek.
The clever addition of a removable bench facade keeps a hose down shower area out-of-site in this vibrant mudroom. Pops of red and orange are tempered with white walls and neutral flooring.

When it comes to time for a birthday party, I love pulling inspiration off of Pinterest. Why recreate the wheel is my opinion. This year, Aspen requested a Unicorn party. Or rather, I prompted Aspen to pick a unicorn party. I guess you can see who's idea won out? There were just so many fun party ideas to pull from.
Since I've done all the research, I wanted to provide you with the top five tried and true pins to help you recreate your own Unicorn party.
Here are the top five pins I used to create Aspen's Unicorn Third Birthday.
1. Unicorn Wall
The first place I start with any party design is a fun backdrop. Often times you can find an easy and affordable piece that takes your party set up from plain to fabulous. For the unicorn party, I loved the unicorn cut-outs like this one that Angela sales on her Etsy page. If you have a cut machine like cricuit or silhouette, then you can easily make this yourself just like I did.
Thanks to these five Pinterest Unicorn party ideas, this party was a breeze to set up and looked totally adorable. The birthday girl was so excited for her unicorn party and still talks about it today.
Three-year-old party approved!

How much money do you need?
Car title loans are a great way to leverage the value of your paid-off car in order to quickly get access to cash, while registration loans can get you the cash you need without having to own your vehicle's title outright. However, you might have a few questions in mind before getting started. If so, take a look at our most frequently asked questions below or feel free to give us a call.
A car title loan is an easy way for people to get money quick in times of financial need. You receive a loan based on the value of your car, truck, motorcycle, RV, trailer, ATV, etc. We place a lien on the title to your vehicle as collateral during the duration of the loan. Once you finish paying off your loan, we will release the lien. Learn more about how it works.
With a registration loan, you can get the cash you need fast, and without owning your vehicle's title outright. This is useful if you're still making payments on your car, or do not own it outright.
At Southwest Title Loans, car title or registration loans can take as little as 20 minutes.
If you're still making regular payments on your vehicle, a registration loan offers the same quick and easy cash process without the need for a title. You'll simply use your vehicle's registration as collateral.
If you're only a few payments away from paying off your vehicle, we can sometimes roll those final payments into your new car title loan. Give us a call at 623.266.9163 to determine if you qualify.
We can help you move from your current car title loan company to Southwest Title Loans by refinancing your vehicle. Give us a call at 623.266.9163 to see how we can help.
At Southwest Title Loans, we do not charge any fees for loan origination.
Title loan payments generally start 30 days after you've accepted the loan. Registration loan payments are due the date of your next paycheck.
If you miss a payment on your car title or registration loan, we make every effort to work with you. However, by accepting our auto title or registration loan, you place your vehicle as security for your loan. Therefore, Southwest Title Loans may seek to obtain possession of the vehicle if you default on your loan.
No. At Southwest Title Loans you only pay interest on the loan amount left on your title loan.
No, applying is free. We do not charge any fees to see if you qualify for an auto title or registration loan.
We've accepted a wide range of vehicles that vary in year, make, model, and condition.
Southwest Title Loans does not charge a fee to find out how much your car is worth, so you can always see how much your vehicle is worth for free.
You can borrow as little as $300 and as much as $50,000.
Yes. At Southwest Title Loans, you never have to wait for someone in another office to approve your car title or registration loan. For a title loan, we'll fund you the money after coming in for a vehicle inspection. For a registration loan, the money will be credited to your account after going through our online application process.
For title loans, we do require an Arizona Certificate of Title. However, converting an out of state car title to an Arizona title is possible. Give us a call at 623.266.9163, and we can help you.
If you are still making payments on your car, a registration loan can be an option. You can leverage your car's registration in place of a title to get you the cash you need.
If you have a newer car with few payments left, we can sometimes work those payments into the car title loan. Give us a call at 623.266.9163, and we can help you.
In the state of Arizona, all titles and registrations with liens are held by the AZDMV. With Southwest Title Loans, once your loan is paid off, we file an electronic lien release. This allows you to get your title or registration back free and clear, and efficiently as possible. This method also frees you of any fees that you would normally incur from the AZDMV to get a title back.
Applying for a loan is easy. For a title loan, you'll first need to complete our online form or call 623.266.9163. After, we'll meet at one of our many locations throughout the Valley. For approval, you'll need your ID, vehicle title, and vehicle. For a registration loan, all you'll need to do is apply online and wait for a call back. For both loans, the entire process can be completed in as little as 20 minutes. Apply now online, or call us at 623.266.9163.

So would I recommend the BISSELL Vac & Steam? Yes I would. If the majority of your floors are hard it is a brilliant peice of equipment, the power of a cyclone vacuum cleaner and a powerful steamer combined into one has to make sense. You lose nothing by combining the two functions and it is light and easy to use. I personally have more carpets than hard floors so for me the Lift-Off Floors & More cleaner would be more suited.
The BISSELL Vac & Steam 1132E is available direct from the BISSELL website for £149.99 with free delivery.
I had the use of a steam cleaner for one week for the purpose of review, all thoughts and opinions remain my own

|Scientific classification
Desv. (1809)
M. coliforme
|Binomial name
|Myriostoma coliforme
Myriostoma is a fungal genus in the family Geastraceae. The genus is monotypic, containing the single species Myriostoma coliforme. It is an earthstar, so named because the spore-bearing sac's outer wall splits open into the shape of a star. The inedible fungus has a cosmopolitan distribution, and has been found in Africa, Asia, North and South America, and Europe, where it grows in humus-rich forests or in woodlands, especially on well-drained and sandy soils. A somewhat rare fungus, it appears on the Red Lists of 12 European countries, and in 2004 it was one of 33 species proposed for protection under the Bern Convention by the European Council for Conservation of Fungi.
The fruit body, initially shaped like a puffball, is encased within an outer covering that splits open from the top to form rays. These rays curve down to expose an inner papery spore case, which contains the fertile spore-bearing tissue, the gleba. The fungus is unique among the earthstars in having a spore case that is supported by multiple stalks, and is perforated by several small holes suggestive of its common names salt-shaker earthstar and pepperpot. It is the largest of the earthstar fungi, and reaches diameters of up to 12 cm (4.7 in). Its spherical spores have elongated warts that create a ridge-like pattern on their surface. The spores are dispersed when falling water hits the outer wall of the spore sac, creating puffs of air that force the spores through the holes.
The species was first mentioned in the scientific literature by Samuel Doody in the second edition of John Ray's Synopsis methodica stirpium Britannicarum in 1696.[2] Doody briefly described the mushroom like so: "fungus pulverulentus, coli instar perforatus, cum volva stellata" (a powdery mushroom, perforated like a colander, with a star-shaped volva), and went on to explain that he found it in 1695 in Kent.[3]
It was first described scientifically as a new species in 1776 from collections made in England by James Dickson, who named it Lycoperdon coliforme. He found it growing in roadside banks and hedgerows among nettles in Suffolk and Norfolk.[4] Nicaise Auguste Desvaux first defined and published the new genus Myriostoma in 1809, with the species renamed Myriostoma anglicum (an illegitimate renaming).[5] Christian Hendrik Persoon had previously placed the species in Geastrum in 1801,[6] while Samuel Frederick Gray would in 1821 describe the genus Polystoma for it.[7] Myriostoma coliforme received its current and final name when August Carl Joseph Corda moved Dickson's name to Myriostoma in 1842, replacing Desvaux's name.[8]
In North America the fungus began to be reported in the late 19th century, first from Colorado by Charles Horton Peck, and later from Florida, collected by Lucien Underwood in 1891; both findings were reported by Andrew Price Morgan in April 1892.[9] In 1897, Melville Thurston Cook also reported having collected it the year before from "Albino Beach".[10] Curtis Gates Lloyd described Bovistoides simplex from a South African specimen in 1919,[11] but in 1942, William Henry Long examined that specimen and concluded that it was a weathered spore sac of M. coliforme that had become detached from the outer star-shaped exoperidium.[12] This conclusion was confirmed in a later study of the material.[13]
Myriostoma had been classified in the family Geastraceae until 1973, when British mycologist Donald Dring placed it in the Astraeaceae[nb 1] based on the presence of trabeculae (stout columns that extend from the peridium to the central core of the fruit body) in the gleba, and the absence of a true hymenium.[15] In his 1989 monograph, Stellan Sunhede returned it to the Geastraceae.[16] Molecular analysis of DNA sequences has confirmed the traditional belief that Myriostoma and Geastrum are closely related.[17][18]
Czech naturalist and mycologist Václav Jan Staněk proposed a variety capillisporum in 1958,[19] which has been sunk back into synonymy with the species.[1] M. coliforme is the sole species in Myriostoma, making the genus monotypic.[20] Because the original type material has been lost, in 1989 Sunhede suggested that Dickson's illustration in his 1776 publication (tab. III: 4a & b) be used as the lectotype.[16]
The specific epithet is derived from the Latin words colum, meaning "strainer", and forma, meaning "shape"—Berkeley's vernacular name "Cullenden puff-ball" also refers to a colander.[21][22] Gray called it the "sievelike pill-box".[7] The generic name is from the Greek words μυρίος, meaning "countless" and στόμα, meaning "mouth" (the source of the technical term stoma).[23][24] The species is commonly known as the "salt-and-pepper shaker earthstar"[25] or simply the "pepperpot".[26]
The fruit bodies start their development underground or buried in leaf debris, linked to a strand of mycelium at the base. As they mature, the exoperidium (the outer tissue layer of the peridium) splits open into 7 to 14 rays which curve backward; this pushes the fruit body above the substrate. Fully opened specimens can reach dimensions of 2–12 cm (0.8–4.7 in) from ray tip to tip. The rays are of unequal size, with tips that often roll back inward. They comprise three distinct layers of tissue. The inner pseudoparenchymatous layer (so named for the resemblance to the tightly packed cells of plant parenchyma) is fleshy and thick when fresh, and initially pale beige but darkening to yellow or brown as it matures, often cracking and peeling off in the process. The exterior mycelial layer, often matted with fine leaf debris or dirt, usually cracks to reveal a middle fibrous layer, which is made of densely packed hyphae 1–2.5 μm wide. The base of the fruit body is concave to vaulted in shape, and often covered with adhering dirt. The roughly spherical spore sac (endoperidium) measures 1–5 cm (0.4–2.0 in) in diameter, and is supported by a cluster of short columns shaped like flattened spheres. It is gray-brown in color, and minutely roughened with small, lightly interconnected warts. There are several to many evenly dispersed mouths, the ostioles, mainly on the upper half of the endoperidium. They are roughly circular with fimbriate edges.[27][28] The inedible fruit bodies have no distinct taste, although dried specimens develop an odor resembling curry powder or bouillon cubes.[29]
Like many earthstars, the fungus uses the force of falling raindrops to help disperse the spores, which are ejected in little bursts when objects (such as rain) strike the outer wall of the spore sac. The gleba is brown to grayish-brown, with a cotton-like texture that, when compressed, allows the endoperidium to flex quickly and create a puff of air that is forced out through the ostioles. This generates a cloud of spores that can then be carried by the wind.[30] There are columellae (sterile structures that start at the base of the gleba and extend through it), which are usually not evident in the mature gleba, but apparent at the base of the spore sac. The columellae are not connected to the ostioles, but rather, terminate within the gleba at some distance from them. The capillitia (sterile strands within the gleba) are long, slender, free, tapering, unbranched, and 2–5 μm thick, with thickened walls. The spores are spherical, nonamyloid, and are ornamented with irregularly shaped flaring protuberances up to 2 μm high. They measure 3.9–4.8 μm in diameter (without ornamentation), and 5.4–7.0 μm including the ornamentation.[28][nb 2]
Myriostoma coliforme is a distinctive species easily characterized by its size—being the largest earthstar fungus—as well as the multiple openings on its spore sack and stalk supporting the sack.[30] Historically, it was thought that the holes might have been a result of insects. This was discussed and rejected by Thomas Jenkinson Woodward in 1797:
It has been doubted whether these mouths might not be accidental, and formed by insects after the expansion of the plant. But this (not to mention their regularity, and that each is furrowed by its border of cilia) is clearly disproved, from the marks of the projections formed by the mouths being seen on the expanded rays, when freshly opened ... I have likewise found an abortive plant, in which the seed did not ripen; but which had numerous projecting papillae on the head, where the mouths should have been formed.[31]
Myriostoma is saprobic, deriving nutrients from decomposing organic matter. Fruit bodies grow grouped in well-drained or sandy soil, often in the partial shade of trees.[27] The species occurs in deciduous forests and mixed forests, gardens, along hedges and grassy road banks, and grazed grasslands. In the Northern Hemisphere, it tends to grow on well-drained south-facing slopes, while it prefers a similar habitat on north-facing slopes in Australia.[16] In Europe, its major habitat is riparian mixed forests dominated by Salix alba and Populus alba along the great rivers.[26] In Hawaii, it has been collected at elevations above 2,000 m (6,600 ft) where it appears to favor the mamane (Sophora chrysophylla) forest.[32]
The species is widespread,[nb 3] being known in its natural habitat from all five continents,[47][50][51] but is not found in abundance. Myriostoma coliforme is rare in Europe, where it appears on the Regional Red Lists of 12 countries, and is one of 33 candidate species for listing in Appendix I of the Convention on the Conservation of European Wildlife and Natural Habitats (the "Bern Convention").[26] Although originally described from England, it was considered extinct in mainland Britain until it was found again in Suffolk in 2006 near Ipswich, one of its original localities[30]—it had been last reported in the country in 1880.[53] The fungus is considered extinct in Switzerland.[54] Its most northerly location is southern Sweden,[55] although it is generally rare in northern Europe.[30] It is similarly widespread but rarely encountered in North America, although there may be isolated localities, like New Mexico, where it is more abundant.[56] In Australia, where its range is limited to the central New South Wales coast, it may have been introduced from exotic plant material.[28]

Kurt.powers needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 112 designs submitted by 26 freelance designers.
space division
I am an independent photographer who is starting a small business to sell his work. My products will be my images and prints.
I would prefer to keep the name/logo all in lower case. The name is inspired by how people in the U.S. in the 1950's/60's saw the future during the space race. Almost Mad Men in a space/technology kind of way. I prefer clean, modern designs that have a retro twist to them. I am looking for a few versions: a color one to be used on a white background, a black and white version to be used on a white background, and a "reversed" version that would be used online against a black or dark background. If possible, would like the word "photography" or "photo" incorporated into the design, but definitely in a smaller, more muted way than the text for "space division". Would like it to incorporate a simple symbol that evokes space but is not too busy. I attached an image of the book that inspired the name.

Police are for it. A lot of lawmakers are for it. This week, leaders in the county where Dustin Ledford's family lives put the full weight of their approval behind a bill that would make it easier for Tennessee authorities to bring the law to bear more harshly on individuals suspected of causing a fatal accident while driving impaired.
Members of the Bradley County Commission in Cleveland unanimously approved a resolution calling on the General Assembly to pass the bill dubbed Dustin's Law, and for the governor to sign the measure into law. It's one more piece of evidence that acknowledges the outrage society feels about drunk driving and the need for someone charged under the state's drunk driving laws to enlist the help of an experienced attorney.
Many readers may be familiar with the background on the bill. It's named for Dustin Ledford who was killed in July 2010 in a head-on collision on a Tennessee highway. He was 24. The 29-year-old woman who was arrested and eventually convicted for driving down the wrong side of the road and causing the accident reportedly had three times the legal limit of alcohol in her system and drugs.
Under current state law, a person cannot be charged with aggravated vehicular homicide in circumstances where the suspect doesn't have a prior DUI conviction. Under the new law, a first-time offender causing a fatal accident could be charged with aggravated vehicular homicide if their blood alcohol concentration measures 0.20 percent or higher, or if the BAC level is 0.08 percent and a presence of methamphetamine. The penalty for conviction would also essentially double from the current 8 to 12 years in prison.
At last check, bills were progressing through both the Tennessee House and Senate and are currently before various committees.
This post is offered not as a position piece on the merits of the bill. Rather, it is simply a reminder that pressures to counter drunk driving are rising. When that happens, individuals, who are supposed to be presumed innocent until proven guilty, often are painted with a broad brush of guilt before they've had their day in court. That being the case, it's all the more important for those facing DUI-related vehicular homicide charges to have the benefit of experienced counsel.
