BRITAIN will have to get used to years of "persistently low growth" as it is forced to reduce its reliance on debt and cope with the fallout from the eurozone, the Governor of the Bank of England has warned.
• UK growth forecast for 2013 downgraded to 1%
• Inflation to fall, but not until second half of 2013
• Bank of England warns economy may shrink again
Publishing the bank's quarterly inflation report yesterday, Sir Mervyn King said that Britain and other deficit countries could not avoid a lengthy spell in the economic doldrums as they come face to face with new realities.
In a stark warning, Sir Mervyn said the growth pattern would continue to "zig-zag", with the economy in danger of shrinking later this year following the post-Olympic bounce, but unable to muster the strength to get back to its pre-crash peak in the short-term.
The news came as latest figures showed unemployment continued to rise in Scotland, but fall across the rest of the UK.
The bank's report revised down growth for next year to just 1 per cent, and said inflation would stay above the government's target of 2 per cent until the second half of the year, longer than previously thought.
For households, Sir Mervyn warned that a continued squeeze would be felt on incomes, with inflation likely to cancel out any real terms pay increases people may receive.
Yet, he warned, governments of indebted nations could do little but maintain a path to reduce borrowing, to show they were on a credible financial path.
His comments came as striking workers in Spain and Portugal halted transport, businesses and schools, and clashed with police, as they protested against rising unemployment and austerity policies, causing flights from the UK to be cancelled.
In the UK, Chancellor George Osborne is expected to signal a fresh round of cuts to welfare programmes next month in the pre-Budget report as ministers seek further to shrink the size of the country's borrowing.
Both Labour and the SNP yesterday repeated their attacks over the cutbacks, but Sir Mervyn told a press conference that the UK could not "simply ignore" the need to "reduce the scale of borrowing".
The only question facing the country, he said, was "how long will people protract the agony" by putting off decisions to cut back on debt, and to "rebalance" the global economy.
He said: "The entire world is going to have to change its pattern of growth and that is proving very difficult to bring about," he warned. The task was being made far harder, he said, by the global situation, particularly in Europe. He said: "We face a difficult challenge in our biggest export market. The euro area plus the countries around it account for one half of our trade. The prospects there look pretty bleak. This is a very difficult environment in which the UK economy is trying to rebalance."
The consequence, he added, was a gloomy medium-term economic future for the UK.
He concluded: "We face the rather unappealing combination of a subdued recovery with inflation remaining above target for a while."
The bank also published new estimates for growth from a range of external forecasters. Their average figures put GDP growth at 1.2 per cent next year, 1.9 per cent in 2014 and 2 per cent in 2015.

Espadrilles are light summer flats, which are generally made of some natural materials and have specific flexible soles, which are made of rope or rubber as a rule. In order to create some successful combinations with espadrilles, you need to know some basic things about them for the beginning. For instance, you need to know that they are worn exclusively barefoot and no way else and that espadrilles may be both flat and on wedges.
So here are few style tips 🙂
How to Wear Flat Espadrilles
Starting with the espadrilles having flat forms which are the most comfortable and great variants of all. And most of all they are suitable for styles like casual, military, street, the navy, and safari. They are ideal to be used for adding some chic, accentuating the uniqueness and, of course, securing the comfort.
Espadrilles are also ideally compatible with any type and shape of denim pieces, be that skinny jeans, shorts, shirts, skirts, or jumpsuits. Picking bottoms with natural fabrics for matching them with espadrilles is also a good idea.
Coming to dresses, we may also recommend them as nice play pairs with flat espadrilles, since they will accentuate your charm and beauty.
How to Wear Wedge Espadrilles
As for the espadrilles on wedges, we may say that they really look chicer and more elegant. Accordingly, the pieces they come matched with should also be chic and feminine and in this respect you may try out the dresses and skirts made of linen and cotton. Because they nicely combine the peculiarities of the casual comfort and chic, many ladies, including the popular celebs pick them for their everyday looks. All types of pants and jeans are recommended in this case, too. Dresses with sporty inspirations may also be matched with wedge espadrilles.
When picking shoes for your everyday looks the factor of comfort should not be neglected. So if espadrilles become your choice, you are sure to have all in one!

Turn $300 into $30 Million!
From Uruguay to Hollywood
Now first off, good for him. Any story of newbie signing a huge deal sets a precedent that can only be good for us other indy filmmakers.
However, three things pop into my mind:
1) I can understand hiring the guy as a special effects supervisor or something, but a director? Puh-leeze. Take the robots away and what do you have? Story? Human interaction?
2) Even if he is a director, does hollywood really need another Roland Emmerich or Michael Bay?
3) I'm sick of these ridiculous budget numbers - $300 - really? Like how about the cost of your computer, or Maya, or After Effects, or Final Cut, or the stolen music? It's still micro-budget, but to make that clip from scratch is at least $10,000.
that's all for now - get back to work...

This is a very impressive video. I've seen plenty of "student films" in my time, and this one ranks high for visual style, efficiency, and energy. I wouldn't fault him for lacking a story -- it's a short, it doesn't need a story. And if they hired him as a director, that doesn't mean they didn't hire a writer too! :)ReplyDelete
I have some respect for Sam Raimi, I imagine he'll make sure he gets a decent product out of this guy... Personally, I'm elated that someone was able to vault straight from YouTube poverty to Big-Budget Director!
You're right, though, no one ever factors the cost of the computer or camera or software into the "indie" budget -- that would totally kill the low-budget street-cred! On the other hand, you buy this stuff for a more general purpose than making one particular movie... So how would you factor those "capital costs" into the "budget" of just one of perhaps many projects that are produced using that same equipment over a period of probably years?
(Not to mention, he might very well have begged, borrowed, and stolen to get it done. People do what they have to do. For example, my guess is the software he used was pirated.)

Just a quick post today... Did you know that there is a way for students to do a Google search and get them sorted by reading level?? Yep, and it's easy!
Step 1: Go to www.google.com
Step 2: At the top, there is button that says Search Tools (click on it).
Step 3: Click on the tab that says All Results and go to Reading Level.
Step 4: Click on the reading level that you want. For my first graders, I would click on Basic.
Step 5: The posts that will come up at the top will be the easiest to read and most kid-friendly.
I searched Bats and I got websites such as:
Bats for Kids
National Geographic
Animal Discovery
It at least makes research a little easier:)

If Predator and a Rhino Had a Baby, It'd Look Like One of the Villains in 'Thor: The Dark World'
You're scrolling through a gallery of 30 new images from Thor: The Dark World, and then all of a sudden you spot a character who looks kind of like Predator, if the alien beast had sex with a rhino. What the what? Who the hell is this badass with horns and where can I buy the action figure, STAT?!
First, let's back up. No, unfortunately Thor does not fight Predator in the sequel even though fans would totally love to see that happen just because... why not, right? This character is interesting because he's actually two characters in one. Portrayed by Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, the pre-Predator-looking version of this character is named Algrim the Strong, and he basically acts as a "number two" alongside the film's central villain Malekith (Christopher Eccleston).
Here's what Algrim looks like before he turns into a beast with horns.
Now without spoiling anything, at some point during Thor: The Dark World Algrim becomes Kurse, or That Guy Who Looks Like a Predator-Rhino. Malekith then uses Algrim to just wreak havoc everywhere... because if you had that thing as your bodyguard, you'd wreak havoc everywhere, too.
And then they were best friends forever and ever... well, that is until the mighty Thor entered the equation. But we'll leave the rest of the story for you to discover yourself when Thor: The Dark World hits theaters on November 8. You can scope out several more images from the movie over at CBM.

Maturing Toward Wholeness in the Inner Life
Why Is George Writing in Tweets?
1 – I too was surprised to find myself beginning to write this book in tweets. What brought me to do this? It was a journey that I backed into.
2 – For Christmas 1998 my mother gave me Dallas Willard's The Divine Conspiracy. Shortly thereafter I started reading.
3 – Half-way through I began to make notes in the margins. Then I began to underline. My next thought was: I need to read this book again.
4 – I read that copy of The Divine Conspiracy five times. I made more notes. I underlined. The spine broke. I still have the book on my shelf.
5 – I have gone through seasons of life when I thought wisdom was to try to read as many books as possible. And I have read a lot of books.
6 – The Divine Conspiracy changed all that. Here was something deep—enduring. It would be treasured long after most books had gone out of print.
7 – It transformed my orientation. Now I wanted to unearth the author's thought processes. How did he arrive at his understandings?
8 – What was the essence, the core insights, the conceptual foundations? I began slowly to key the entire book into a word processing document.
9 – It took me a year. I was in no hurry. I did a couple of pages a day during my early morning study times. I highlighted the key insights.
10 – I deleted all explanatory material surrounding each key insight. I bolded the most important phrase in each one. I gave them each a number.
11 – I kept going over the key insights during my morning study times. Understandings took root in my subconscious. A study method was emerging.
12 – I studied other authors this way—Leanne Payne, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Richard Foster, the Desert Fathers, Robert Webber, Henri Nouwen, et. al.
13 – My study was transitioning from reading widely to meditating deeply. I focused on classics—writings that have endured the test of time.
14 – I was on a hunt for essence. What are foundational understandings upon which a house of wisdom can be built that will survive and flourish?
15 – I knew such understandings must be 1) expressed in few words and 2) rooted in the concepts of Jesus, the greatest Teacher ever to live.
16 – Our 21st century lives are submerged in a tsunami of words. Many words generate trivial words. Trivial words obscure insight, dilute wisdom.
17 – Just prior to starting this book our co-worker Cheri assigned me the job of writing 40 tweets to post on twitter, Facebook, and our website.
18 – Creating 40 tweets felt like writing poetry. This had become my style! I would write Maturing toward Wholeness in the Inner Life in tweets.

During the beginning of this year I was coding a lot of PHP and classes at that, some stuff that would put my previous projects to shame (inheritance and all that jazz) and I was on the look out for a PHP IDE that would allow me to be able to speed up my development without having to memorize all the functions that I was creating. Happening to fall, as I often do, onto a seemingly great application, Zend Studio was at the same time the worst and greatest moment of my life. The best because they are a PHP development company so they obviously would be trying to ease the development of PHP applications, and worst because its written in JAVA! Fuck. I cant explain how irrational my hatred of java applications is except to show you a list of possible java application outcomes:
- Crashes
[thirty minute cool down break]
Well I have cooled down now from the recollection of memories associated with that poor excuse of an application. The ZS app was developed (probably) as an extension of another FANTASTIC JAVA fucking app called eclipse, which is an all around great IDE, except for the lack of support when it crashes and the enormous numbers of people telling me that I just don?t know how to use it, which is irritating in its own right. Not to mention that PHP is a web development language, so it would make A LOT of sense to have Eclipse have something like FTP Support, which it ?has.? It may have a plugin for it, but that doesn?t mean it works or that its intuitive.
So this project would be all about developing a C/C++ driven IDE damn near identical to its java brother, the main thing I would like to remove from it would be the crashing, because that?s a great way to get your day ruined.

Great recipe! Although, if you are a garlic lover don't be stingy! I added 3 cloves and it was just the right amount for flavor and not too over powering!

Nothing seems too much trouble for this Company, excellent service, brilliant guides and transport.
We booked with them before we travelled via the internet, well worth it. Great value for money!
This tour company is brilliant from ease of booking, to being picked up at your hotel and being dropped off back there. The guide I had was very friendly and informative, I would certainly use them again, the transport provided was of a high standard. Very very reasonable prices.....check them against other tour organisers.

In our visit during December to Madeira, we decided to take a Levada walk with this company - they pick you up at your hotel, and the walks are reasonably priced.
The Rabacal walk starts high up on the north-west of Madeira, and the last part of the route to get there is a steep, single-track track. The views at the top are of lush green jungle on steep slopes. At first you walk down a narrow road for 1 km, and then go along Levada tracks, with water rushing past. At least one of the trickles of water cascading into one of the Levadas is OK to drink. The best sights on the walk are a high waterfall and a smaller waterfall, still quite high, and the pool that it falls into. Most of the walk is under trees, so there are not many opportunities to get good views - that disappointed me a bit. The pick-up at the hotel was fine and the guide was excellent. I would go with this company again and recommend it.
Hi Alice,
Thank for providing us with the private island tour - the driver was brilliant and deserves a special mention.
Thank you
As posted on Trip Advisor (5 star review!):
Our first trip to Madeira and it was amazing thanks to Marco of Madeira Happy Tours.
We arrived in Madeira on the 20th of December and the first thing we did was walk the streets of Lido and Funchal, scoping out the possibility of guided tours and/or walks.
We knew we wanted to participate in activities and "see, experience, and feel" Madeira, but with WHOM should we choose to arrange our activities with. As we had never been to Madeira before, we really didn't know who to go with. Big company, or small? it can very much be overwhelming with all the offers that are out there.
After much walking and pondering, we happened to come across "Madeira Happy Tours" in the Lido area (within a 5 to 10 minute walk of our Hotel, the Pestana Promenade).
On the store's window, there listed many bus tours, but one caught my eye. A half-day tour to Nun's Valley - 12 Euros each.
I said to my husband, a half day for 12 Euros?
Good opportunity to test this company out and if a wash, we are only out 24 Euros (12 Euros each). He whole-heartedily agreed. So, we entered the store and that's when we met Marco, the owner/proprietor of Madeira Happy Tours.
Marco was very enthusiastic and friendly and welcomed us into his store. He seemed genuine and honest, but of course - we were still skeptical, as there were so many offers and companies out there, you don't know who to trust. Again, the thought of booking a half day for 12 Euros was a good test for this company.
The next afternoon (21st December) we were picked up promptly (on time) at our hotel and taken to Nun's Valley.
The tour was excellent and satisfied beyond our expectations. We returned that evening to Happy Tours and began planning our next adventures.
I just want to say thank you agin for a wonderful time. The kids loved the trip and so did the adults. The lunch was amazing as well. Patricia was a great guide. If we ever get back to Madeira, we will definitively book with you guys again :)
Dear Patricia,
Thank you so much for the two trips, we really enjoyed them.
We felt very safe with your really good driving.
We will certainly tell everyone about Happy Tours, because you really made ours happy.
Emma and Mark
Dear Alice & Marco,
I thought i needed to send you a mail to let you have some feed back about our trip to the Nun's valley on 12th December.
I am a coach driver and tour guide in Tenerife and thought the whole trip was excellent and very professional, the driver Miguel was five minutes early at the pick up point, which is always a good start, he was very friendly and knowledgeable and took us on a wonderful excursion, he is a great ambassador for the company.
We will be back to Madeira in the future and will definitely use your company again and will be recommending your tours to our friends and on cruise web sites.
Thank you for making our short stay in Madeira so enjoyable.
Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year.
Chris O'Connor
Thanks to Alice Scherlies, Bruno Telo and Patricia Freitas for their excellent service.
I went on the East tour with Bruno, October 14th and on the West tour with Patricia on October 15th, both very interesting excursions and a special thanks to Alice for her efforts!
I will be back in spring 2012 with my wife and some friends. Sure I will contact Madeira Happy Tours on beforehand to decide about new trips...
Curt Björkquist, Linköping, Sweden
Dear Madeira Happy Tours Team,
You gave us a wonderful day on your South Tour.
Bruno, our driver, was so well informed and gave clear commentaries in both English and German.
The visited scenery was spectacular and very interesting.
Thank you very much Happy Tours.
We´ll certainly travel with you again and recommend you to our friends.

Dynamics of the Volatile Defense of Winter "Dormant" Balsam Poplar (Populus balsamifera)
- 127 Downloads
- Citations
6-Hydroxycylohex-2-en-1-one (6-HCH) has been reported as a major chemical defense of the winter-dormant internodes of balsam poplar (Populus balsamifera) against feeding by herbivores such as the snowshoe hare (Lepus americanus). We report that the concentration of 6-HCH in the fall internodes is triggered by a single hard frost, and then undergoes an exponential decline through volatilization over the winter that results in barely detectable quantities by early spring. We conclude that the role of 6-HCH in the defense of mature balsam poplar is more complex than simply acting as a toxin. Rather, 6-HCH's role as a defensive agent must evolve over the course of the winter from being a co-toxin to a cue for a conditioned flavor aversion (CFA) to finally having no role by late spring.

Oxfordpsych Mock CASC Exams
Day one: 11th January 2020
Day two: 12th January 2020
Venue : English Institute of Sport, Sheffield
Register with Oxfordpsych and join in discussions on our forum.
Since 2007, Oxfordpsych have been helping psychiatrists prepare for the Royal College of Psychiatrist CASC exams, both in the UK and overseas. Over the past twelve years, we have worked with many doctors who are now senior psychiatrists both across the UK, and in many countries overseas. You are most welcome to join us!
The aim of Oxfordpsych training is to enable every psychiatry trainee appearing for the CASC exams to demonstrate the clinical and communication skills needed to pass well, with confidence. We offer intensive, personalised training, focusing on both the clinical and communication skills and competencies being assessed in CASC, which are then applied across the range of stations in the RCPSych CASC blueprint, including those in the new station format. Our teaching techniques are rooted in adult learning theory, and as a team, we are passionate about supporting you and enabling you to do well.
We offer a range of training opportunities including:
For more information, please see the relevant pages, and feel free to get in touch if you have any questions - we are always happy to help!
What participants say about Oxfordpsych courses:
"Absolutely brilliant - thank you so much. When I booked I was at a loss to know how to effectively prepare for this exam, but now I feel like it might be possible to pass!" Oxford 2017
"Very well structured; good teaching of clinical core skills and methods to approach stations; exam orientated; lots of practice." Oxford 2017
"Excellent course. I didn't expect to learn so much that was also relevant for my general clinical practice... I feel calmer, unparalysed, safer" Oxford 2017
"What was done well? The breakdown of the interview, core skills for tackling scenarios, good feedback, no overload of information" Oxford 2017
"The teachers were not afraid to demonstrate or put themselves in our position." Oxford 2014
"Very well organised. Good balance of circuits and presentaitons. The small number of delegates meant that feedback was more individual which I think is a real strength" Oxford 2017
"Staff were approachable and helpful; very constructive feedback from consultants; excellent actors who gave very helpful and personalised feedback; small group sessions - interactive and useful; good food!" Oxford 2015
"Highly competent and helpful actors/examiners; great enthusiasm, well taught; well organised; excellent course - learning for a lifetime." Oxford 2015
At Oxfordpsych, we believe that working overseas should not reduce your chances of passing the CASC exam, so we are bringing our Comprehensive CASC Courses to you!
Our Comprehensive CASC Courses overseas - recently held in Dublin, Egypt, Abu Dhabi, Singapore, Malaysia and India - focus on the skills specifically needed for psychiatrists working in countries other than the UK. In addtion to looking at differences in communication and interview styles, there are specific sessions focusing on UK Mental Health legislation and sevices, and how this knowledge particularly impacts on management, in line with the new CASC circuit format.
For more information, please visit the Oxfordpsych Overseas page.
Oxfordpsych Mock CASC Exams take place at the English Institute of Sport in Sheffield, twice a year, ten days prior to the real CASC exams. The Mock CASC Exam is a great opportunity to experince what the real CASC exam is like, in the same venue, in the same booths and under the same exam conditions. You will undertake 16 stations individually, interview actors with experience of the real CASC exam and receive written feedback from experienced examiners. The range of stations will match the CASC Blueprint from the Royal College, and will include a circuit of stations in the new circuit format. This will help you feel more equipped and confident and reduce anxiety for the day of your exam, as you will be familiart with the environment, the exam format and know what to expect.
For more information, please see the Mock CASC page.
Oxfordpsych Online CASC Tutoring
Oxfordpsych Online CASC Tutoring offers an opportunity to fine tune your skills and get personal feedback from experienced consultant psychiatrists and CASC experienced actors. Online CASC tutoring is offered on an individual basis by arrangement, in one-hourly sessions, using a digital audio-video portal, which can record your sessions to improve reflection and thereby enhance your performance.
For more information, please see the Online CASC Tutoring page.
"I found the Mock CASC Exam very useful - it really helped to reduce my anxiety and have an idea of what to expect. I passed the same number of stations as in the real exam, so I think it is a good reflection of the real thing. I would recommend the Mock to everyone." Sheffield 2016
"I am writing to thank you because I passed the exam, at the first attempt! Your insights and advice have been very helpful. I'm really grateful for your training which changed my mindset and approach towards the exam, such as focusing on he things I can improve and not in the fact that I'm from overseas."

Gsm 3 V Transceiver If Subsystem - Analog Devices
The AD6432 IF IC provides the complete transmit and receive IF signal processing, including I/Q modulation and demodula- tion, necessary to implement a digital Wireless transceiver such as a GSM handset. The AD6432 may also be used for other Wireless TDMA standards using I/Q modulation. The AD6432s receive signal path is based on the proven archi- tecture of the AD607 and the AD6459. It consists of a mixer, gain-controlled Amplifiers integrated roofing Filter and I/Q Demodulators based on a PLL The low noise, high-intercept variable-gain mixer is a doubly-balanced Gilbert-cell type. It has a nominal 13 dBm input-referred 1 dB compression point and a 0 dBm input-referred third-order intercept. The gain-control input accepts an external control voltage input from an external AGC detector or a DAC It provides an 80 dB gain range with 27.5 mV/dB gain scaling, where the mixer and the IF gains vary together. The I and Q Demodulators provide inphase and quadrature baseband outputs to Interface with Analog Devices AD7015 and AD6421 (GSM, DCS1800, PCS1900) baseband convert- ers. An onboard quadrature VCO externally phase-locked to the IF signal, drives the I and Q Demodulators The quadrature phase-locked Oscillator (QPLO) requires no external compo- nents for frequency control or quadrature generation, and de- modulates signals at standard GSM system IFs of 13 MHz, or 26 MHz with a reference input frequency of 13 MHz; or, in general, 1X or 2X the reference frequency. Maximum reference frequency is 25 MHz. By Analog Devices, Inc.

In the wake of a 2005 study by the IASC Task Force on Training, the IASC authorized the development of the Emergency Team Leadership Programme (ETLP) to promote cross-organisational participation and inter-agency leadership development in order to support the development of competencies for team leaders. UNHCR was selected to administer the training and the first course kicked-off in 2006.
ETLP Overview:
The ETLP enhances the effectiveness of participants in inter-agency leadership roles or as emergency team leaders. Because of its unique inter-agency participations, the workshop focuses on leadership, self-awareness and interpersonal skills, rather than on emergency technical (e.g. emergency operations, sectoral planning, logistics, staff security, etc.) or managerial skills. Each ETLP accommodates up to 20 participants and sessions are held 2-3 times yearly.
Key themes addressed in the programme include "emotional intelligence," "situational leadership," "collaborative negotiation," "decision-making in emergencies," "team care/trust building" and "coaching." All ETLP learning activities, discussions and presentations are contextualized to reflect humanitarian emergency environments, challenges and scenarios.
Designed as a blended-learning programme, the ETLP consists of:
- pre-workshop phase with self-assessments, peer feedback and relevant readings
- week-long face-to-face residential workshop
- post-workshop learning activity including facilitator coaching.
Expected outcomes of the ETLP:
- strengthen the quality of leadership in humanitarian operations
- support stronger coordination among agencies
- foster development of best practice in emergency leadership and management
- contribute to the expansion of a larger cadre of experienced team leaders proficient in emergency leadership competencies
Target Audience:
Participants in this course come from IASC partner agencies dealing with humanitarian emergencies and disaster response. The desired profile of participants include individuals with emergency experience who are either currently in the field serving in a team leadership/coordination role (eg. at the UN P4-P5 level), or who might be deployed by their agency over the next 12 months as leaders of humanitarian response teams, heads of sub/field offices or cluster/sector coordinators.
- have a minimum of 5 years of field experience in humanitarian/emergency operations with responsibility (six months minimum) for leading staff and/or inter-agency groups;
- are able to commit the time required to do the pre-workshop learning activities (about 10 hours), attend the workshop (4.5 days) and complete a post-workshop activity (5-15 hours), and,
- exhibit the ability, potential and/or desire for leading, and possess a positive disposition towards humanitarian work, lifelong learning and leading teams.
Since March 2006 to March 2017, nineteen ETLPs have been conducted. A total of 330 participants from some 25 different organizations, including UNOCHA, UNICEF, WFP, FAO, UNFPA, OHCHR, UNHCR, IOM, ICRC, IFRC, WHO, Oxfam UK, Mercy Corps, Care, CHF International, IRD, LWF, Danish Refugee Council, World Vision International, Caritas, the Refugee Consortium of Kenya, the Kenya Red Cross and the IASC Secretariat amongst others have attended these ETLP courses.
At the request of the IASC, UNHCR serves as the programme's administrator and institutional home. Since the programme's inception, InterWorks LLC has served as the lead instructional designer and training facilitator.
For additional information about the programme, registration and logistics please contact email@example.com at UNHCR's Global Center (GLC). For additional information about the ETLP design and content, please contact Charles Dufresne at email@example.com.

Toy Fox Terriers are truly a big dog in a small package.They love chasing squirrels and are expert lizard hunters, but are calmer than other toy terriers and take their job of family couch potato very seriously.
The breed's colors are white, chocolate and tan; white and tan; white and black; or tri-color.
They require an owner that can keep up with their high energy life-style. They excel at many activities such as obedience, agility and long walks in the woods. Older kids love them because of their endless sense of play but they are too small to do well with very young children.
This is a true American breed and was created by crossing various terrier and toy breeds including Miniature Pinschers, Italian Greyhounds, Chihuahuas and Manchester Terriers. They are a mix of terrier and toy -- neither as active as the one nor as soft as the other.
By the Numbers
Size: 8.5" to 11.5" at the shoulder. He is square in proportion.
Coat Care: 1 – Very low; . Requires an occasional bath
Trainability: 8: quite willing and eager, though is very easily distracted.
Energy level: 7 They are active and happy dogs that require an owner that can keep up with them.
Good with Children: 6 but only children older than 6; they can be delicate as a puppy.
Noise level: medium -- 6
Low Shedding/hypoallergenic: 3 -- low Despite the short coat, they do shed and are not hypoallergenic.

For better or worse, the current generation of consoles has been rife with remastered editions of last-gen hits. A good chunk of the top-rated PlayStation 4 and Xbox One games are, more or less, shinier versions of PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 games.
But don't lump "Ratchet & Clank," the latest release in the series of the same name, in with those titles. This is a full-bore remake, from the ground up, of the 2002 PlayStation 2 original that spawned its own empire of games and, at the end of April, its own feature film. Wisely, the series' evolutions over the past 14 years also made their way into the new edition.
The new "Ratchet" captures fun in a bottle and lets its world sparkle. The bulk of the 12-hour campaign puts an armory of zany weapons in the heroes' hands, allowing for all sorts of cartoonish mayhem in dispatching the alien and robotic minions of the maniacal Chairman Drek.
There's no wrong way to play. It's easy to find a favorite weapon — the classic Groovitron shoots a disco ball that makes enemies harmlessly dance, making them ripe for bashing with your wrench. But "Ratchet" rewards experimentation by using multiple weapons concurrently.
Each weapon levels up as it is used, hitting its maximum and receiving a new name at Level 5. The system further motivates players to check out the other, varied weapons available to level them up as well. On top of that, each weapon can be upgraded in a honeycomb-styled skill tree. It's a deep, yet simple, system that takes almost no time.
Another passive upgrade system comes in the form of collectible cards, which can be found in hiding spots or acquired at random from dispatching enemies. Forming sets of three similar cards buffs, for example, how many bolts (currency) enemies drop when subdued. Again, this doesn't take much time away from actually playing the game.
All the better, given the kinetic skirmishes that Ratchet and Clank encounter in their journey that retains a similar framework to the 2002 original — with some twists. These sequences are gorgeous and smooth, which is impressive given the amount of on-screen chaos.
Intermittently mixed in are starship battles, rail-grinding, hoverboard races, puzzles and chase sequences. Some work better than others, but on the whole it's a nice diversion to break up the monotony of baddies of similar types.
While its replay value is questionable, there's no denying that "Ratchet & Clank" maximizes the time spent with it by simply being a humorous, fun alternative to its super-serious action peers.
"Ratchet & Clank," published by Sony Interactive Entertainment and developed by Insomniac Games, is out April 12 for PlayStation 4. $39.99

The Eagle Creek Cargo Hauler 45L is a lightweight and durable duffel that packs down into it's front-end zippered compartment for compact storage.
Eagle Creek says:
Ultra-light and constructed with leading-edge Bi-Tech Armor Lite, Cargo Haulers are equipped with gear pockets, grab handles, and tie-down daisy chains. Built resilient for big adventures, they are just itching to hit the backroads. The 45L is carry-on sized.
The 45L Cargo Hauler Duffel is a great size for weekends away. It's big enough for all the essentials but still small enough to fit as carry on luggage on most flights. What I really like about this bag is that it packs down small when empty and stuffs into its own side pocket, creating a handy carry case that you can't loose. Bags that stuff into their own pockets can sometimes be a challenge to get back inside due to stiff fabrics, but this one didn't take much effort at all.
You've also got multiple carrying options - it can be worn as a rucksack or you can remove the straps and just use the top or side padded grab handles. In terms of storage there's one main compartment, big enough for clothes and accessories, and two large side pockets which is large enough for shoes and toiletries.
The fabric feels pretty tough and durable and the zips have large pull's which makes accessing it while wearing gloves easy enough. The main compartment can be secured with a lock (lock not included), but the two side pockets don't have the same lockable zipper, however there are small fabric loops at each end that you could use to lock to the zips.

On Saturday 17th of September over 120 rebuilders were gathered to learn more on a variety of transmission subjects at the 19th Choice Tech Seminar.
Bob Warnke from Sonnax showed some practical steps in working with valve bodies. The day was concluded by a presentation of Markus Hofmann from ZF. The participants were introduced to the Hybrid ZF 8 speed transmission. He stated on the importance of awareness; better make sure to be prepared because it is a development which is bound to literally arrive into your workshop.
Next to this the ZF 9 speed 9HP was discussed. Markus had brought several parts with him and gave tips on (dis)mantling. The presence of the camera made it possible for the entire room to see his steps in detail.
Overall we can look back on a successful seminar; the room was filled with serious participants; the reviews were positive and useful in comments and we were able to share technical knowledge once more.
With this enthusiasm in mind we are already looking forward to the next Choice Tech Seminars, which will take place on Saturday 20th of May, 2017 in Bristol and on Saturday 17th of June, 2017 in Amsterdam. Keep an eye on our website for more details shortly.
We like to thank our wonderful guest speakers and our valued customers for another successful Choice Tech Seminar!

Took a little trip to the mountains this week to visit Winter Park, Colorado - one of our favorite places in Colorado! For years we have enjoyed mountain biking their vast trail network, however, this year we decided to try a new twist and trail run some of our favorite bike routes. We thought it would give us new perspective on familiar trails, and at the same time, provide some altitude training to our running regimen. Most of the trails start around 9000' and go up from there.
Since this was our travel day, we did not have a scheduled Doggie Daycare for Sage, so we did a nice hike on the Givelo and Creekside trails with her. We also needed to rest our legs from Sunday's race!

Press Releases
Genie unveils world's tallest self-propelled boom at Bauma 2013
Friday 12 April 2013 @ 14:56
Genie unveils world's tallest self-propelled boom at Bauma 2013
BRISBANE, AUSTRALIA (April 19, 2013) – Breaking through all industry records at 54.9m (180 ft), the revolutionary new Genie® SX-180 self-propelled telescopic boom lift was introduced this week at the Bauma 2013 tradeshow in Munich, Germany. The largest of its kind in the market, the boom lift is suited for applications in the oil and gas industries, commercial construction, industrial construction and maintenance, and general maintenance. The SX-180 may be seen publicly for the first time at the tradeshow.
The Genie SX-180 is designed to be productive, reliable and easy to transport. "Customers are always looking for new and innovative ways to carry out their work more efficiently and more effectively. In concert with customer input, our engineers have been able to reach new heights for this next generation of Genie telescopic boom lifts," said Scott Krieger, Senior Product Manager, Booms and Telehandlers, Terex Aerial Work Platforms (AWP). "We have pushed the limits of innovation in the aerial industry by successfully producing results beyond expectations."
According to Brad Lawrence, General Manager of Genie in Australia, the Genie SX-180 is a remarkable new product with particular relevance to the Australian market. "The SX-180 delivers a clear benefit to Genie customers," Brad Lawrence said.
"The landscape of the Australian AWP market may not be unique, but we do have a wide range of challenging height applications which will drive high demand for the SX-180. We are committed to servicing the specific height requirements of building maintenance, construction, telecommunications and mining with the Genie SX-180."
The Genie SX-180 is built to safely and quickly lift operators higher than any previously offered self-propelled boom lift. With a 54.9 meter (180 ft) vertical reach and 24.4 meter (80 ft) horizontal reach, the Genie SX-180 provides a working envelope ideal for the most extreme access jobs. The 2.44m (8 ft) by 0.91 m (3 ft) platform has an unrestricted capacity of 340 kg (750 lb). The 3.05 m (10 ft), 180 degree, rotating jib positions workers and gear exactly where they are needed.
The machine is designed to be driven at full height. Travel speeds vary based on boom position and range from 4.02 km/h (2.5 mph) with the boom in the stowed position, 0.65 km/h (0.4 mph) below 38.1 m (125 ft) and 0.17 km/hr (0.1 mph) above 38.1 m (125 ft).
The newly designed X-chassis extends and retracts to provide both stability on the job and a narrow profile for transport. The boom lift's stowed dimensions are 3.05m (10 ft) in height and 2.5 m (8 ft 2 in) wide. With a stowed length of 12.98 m (42 ft 7 in), the 24,494 kg (54,000 lbs) machine requires no over width or over height permits allowing it to be easily transported on a truck. "This X-chassis design is also used on our new Genie® ZX™-135 articulating boom introduced earlier this year," said Krieger. "This allows our big booms to share many design features providing parts and operating commonality."
The Genie SX-180 is designed with reliability and serviceability in mind. There is easy access to important systems and components, robust hose and harness routings and access to slew bearing bolts from topside. The rotating jib offers a robust slew bearing and worm drive arrangement.
New platform controls consist of toggle switches and fully proportional jib and boom controls. The ground controls offer an updated function diagram layout and tactile membrane switches. A 50 gallon fuel tank for longer run time and a 7.5 kW generator are standard equipment.
See video interview with Scott Krieger, senior product manager at Terex AWP about the launch of the Genie SX-180 telescopic boom at bauma 2013.
Worldwide availability will begin in the second half of 2013.
