Microsoft to update Surface Type Cover and Touch Cover
Microsoft to update Surface Type Cover and Touch Cover as part of June update
Microsoft has been exceedingly good about providing monthly updates to the Surface tablets ever since their respective launches. This month's update will bring improvements to the Surface Type Cover and Touch Cover via a software update. "Surface is great and only getting better," Microsoft's Brian Hall wrote.
The updates will come next week as part of June's monthly updates for the Surface tablets. The changes are rather minimal, but still important as it shows Microsoft's dedication to the Surface line of tablets. Microsoft is adding the ability to toggle the functionality of the top row of keys between their primary and secondary uses. Users currently have to hold down the Fn key to access the secondary function. To toggle between users, simply press Fn + Caps.
Microsoft is also adding a few extra commands to the keyboard, which are below in bullet form:
- Fn + "spacebar": Print Screen
- Fn + "spacebar" + Alt: Print Screen for the in-focus window only
- Fn + Del: Brightness Up
- Fn + Backspace: Brightness Down
- Fn + "left": Home
- Fn + "right": End
- Fn + "up": Page Up
- Fn + "down": Page Down

Fun with Time and Date (dot com)
I use this handy-dandy little website every once in a while, and it's nice to see that an old stand-by gets more useful with time by adding new applications and goodies.
It started out with basic things like time zone maps, a service to look up the time in major world cities (very handy when making overseas phone calls and you're too jet lagged to remember if you're ahead or behind of your loved ones' time - and too tired to read a time zone map), and another to build custom monthly or yearly calendars. Of course, it still does those useful things, but you can also look up sunrise and sunset times, count down to the New Year (also available as an iPhone app!), figure out meeting times across times zones (nice for webinars with people from the East Coast, West Coast, and Midwest altogether), calculate the distance between two cities, such as Minneapolis, MN and Albequerque, NM, and look up the phases of the moon.
So if you and your learners are working on geography, calendar reading, learning about time zones, or any of the other functions on this site, you might find it useful - even if it's just to print out a monthly calendar for your class.
Here's the website again: www.timeanddate.com. Enjoy!


text: The University of Houston-Downtown Animal Rescue Club is a student community service organization. The Club adheres to the national "No-Kill" philosophy, best exemplified by such organizations as Austin Pets Alive. Our belief is that no cat or dog should ever be killed unless they are terminally ill and in pain; if they are severely incapacitated to the point that life becomes too great a burden to bear; or if they are behaviorally, irredeemably dangerous to humans. We strive to convert "kill shelters" to "no kill" shelters; to trap-neuter-and return community animals to their outdoor homes; and to provide a minimum of care to community cats. Through these means, Houston can join other cities and other parts of the country in preventing the birth of any cats and dogs not desired as pets. To us, all cats and dogs should have loving homes.

Next week, new female group The Shindellas from the Nashville-based collective Weirdo Workshop, will be performing on Sunday, July 8 in New Orleans at the 2018 ESSENCE Festival and featured with Louis York at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.
Band members Stacy Johnson, Tamara Williams, and Kasi Jones describe themselves as "Three women who have come together in sisterhood to sing songs about self-love, self-worth and self-respect," and they have just released their debut single "Reconsider."
Written and produced by multi-Grammy nominated songwriting-production team Louis York a.k.a. Chuck Harmony and Claude Kelly (Janet Jackson, Rihanna, Bruno Mars, Fantasia), "Reconsider" is catchy mid-tempo, old-school-meets-new-school song with contemporary lyrics such as "Don't let anyone tell you who you should love / baby this is your life / it's okay to like / the whole rainbow / I don't care who you love / as long as / he or she fills you up / and never drags your heart / through the mud / so if you don't feel like a winner / reconsider" packed in retro doo-wop, Motown-style beats.
Watch them perform the single on Today In Nashville below to get a taste of their considerable chemistry and style:
"Reconsider" is available on all digital platforms (click here) and you can purchase Essense Festival tickets to see them at www.essencefestival.com.

World: Europe
Analysis: Britain tests the Franco-German axis
The European Union: Is Britain one of those in the driving seat?
By European Affairs Analyst William Horsley
Ever since the Elysee Treaty of 1963, France and Germany have deliberately formed an exclusive partnership, which they like to call an axis, or "engine" of European integration.
This claim to joint leadership faces its greatest test yet with two recent events - the arrival of Tony Blair's more pro-European government in Britain last year, and the election in September of Gerhard Schroeder as German Chancellor.
In fact, the existence of these two rival German agendas - for special relationships with France and with Britain - is causing new confusion as the EU faces critical decisions in three big areas: economic union, political union and the idea of a common European defence.
Budget tensions
That is the financing of the EU budget from the year 2000 on. Germany is fighting to cut its huge contribution. France is fighting to keep as much as it can of the present support for farming. Britain insists on keeping its special rebate.
The arguments may overshadow both Franco-German and Anglo-French talks. And the tough job of reaching an accord acceptable to all is in the lap of the Germans, who hold the EU presidency in the first half of next year.

Johnnie Walker Dear Brother
Students at Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg, in Ludwigsburg near Stuttgart, Germany, have produced "Dear Brother", a moving spec commercial for Scottish whisky Johnnie Walker. Filmed largely on the Isle of Skye, Scotland, the film shows two brothers walking the roads of their youth, enjoying a glass of Black Label together in an abandoned house before heading to look out over the sea for a final farewell. "Keep walking", the classic Johnnie Walker tagline, connects the film to the rugged future. The heart-moving film, released on the directors' YouTube channel on December 14, 2015, has had over 3.6 million views.
Johnnie Walker Dear Brother – The Poem
Dear Brother
Walking the roads of our youth
through the land of our childhood, our home and our truth
Be near me, guide me
always stay beside me so i can be free, free
Lets roam this place
familiar and vast
our playground of green frames, our past
We were wanderers
never lost, always home
When every place was fenceless
and time was endless
our ways were always the same
Cool my demons and walk with me brother
until our roads lead us away from each other
and if your heart's full of sorrow, keep walking, don't rest
and promise me from heart to chest
to never let your memories die, never
I will always be alive and by your side,
in your mind
I'm free
Johnnie Walker Dear Brother Credits

WoW..... amazingly REAL !!!!
Thanks Robin!
Robin Lamarche said:
WoW..... amazingly REAL !!!!
Hello Lizzie and thank you :). I used marker to get such a solid black though I could have achieved it with colored pencil alone by filling in the tooth with Prismacolor Premier Softcore Pencils.
One of the cool things about Prismacolor markers is they match their markers to their colored pencils...while in this case its somewhat irrelevant in regards to the black....its still nice to know that it matches up. I did use marker underneath the frogs as well so that if I missed filling in some of the paper tooth it was still covered in the base color.
Thanks for asking and I hope that helps!
Allen, thanks so much for sharing your work with us! The realism in your drawings is truly amazing. I enjoy seeing the "undone" images in your portfolio because it's sort of surreal to see the artwork in its half-finished state. It's like magic, seeing the images come to life!
I also appreciate how you include some tips and info about how you created each piece. For instance, I never would have guessed that you use marker in your drawings, and then draw over top with colored pencils. Interesting technique - I'll have to experiment with it someday!
Thank you Thaneeya :)
It's my pleasure...I actually would have never thought anybody would be interested in seeing my incomplete work but I have seen some interest lately.
The frogs look so real. Excellent job. I am finding I like color pencils more and more all the time.
Thanks so much Rose! I appreciate it :)
Brilliant work Allen, Just started in pencil and good to know a few tricks of the trade :-)
Great stuff - you can really see you've perfected your skill - I too love color pencil - actually I use water color pencils - I noticed you use markers too - great idea to mix the two mediums!
Awsome work Allen. I have just recently started working with colored pencil and I'm loving it. your work is an inspiration.

Call 0800 138 0458 or
Email the team
Find out more about David
The thought of legal fees can be worrying for many people considering claiming compensation for childhood abuse. The good news is, Switalskis can usually help you to secure funding for your claim.
We will talk to you about the options for funding the legal fees for your claim during your initial consultation. Most cases are funded in one of two ways:
Legal aid funding
Many child abuse claims are eligible for legal aid. Whether or not legal aid will be available to fund your claim will depend on two factors:
- whether you meet the criteria for financial eligibility; and
- the likelihood of your claim being successfully concluded.
We are very experienced in handling legal aid applications and will assess your eligibility as part of your initial consultation.
No win, no fee
Legal aid isn't available for every claim, but if it turns out that you are not eligible for legal aid, we may still be able to help you with your claim on a no win, no fee basis. We can assess whether you qualify for our no win, no fee scheme at your initial consultation.
If you would like to talk to a specialist solicitor, in confidence, about making a claim for compensation, call us on 0800 138 4700, or complete our contact form and we'll call you back.

The budget will be depleted when a unique visitor clicks on your advertisement; the depletion will be no more than the maximum budget set, and in most cases, it is less. The cost per click is dependent on the relevancy of the advertisement, the relevancy of the landing page, and the price competitors are willing to pay for the placement.
A good Google Ads campaign requires time and knowledge; the difference between spending time on writing good advertisements, good landing pages and well-thought-out key phrases is the difference between a successful campaign and an expensive exercise. Like all success in life, you either do it right or don't do it at all.
Google has over 90% of the search engine market in New Zealand; it is where Kiwis go to find your products and services. The easiest way to place your website in front of your audience is by utilising Google Ads. Google Ads means you are in front of your target audience within 3 days of your campaign being approved by Google.
Google Ads provides one of the most effective ways to position yourself efficiently in front of an audience who are specifically searching for products and services your business provides.
The Google Ads platform is highly flexible, can be tailored to almost any budget, and boasts incredible targeting capability, ensuring you are not paying for irrelevant clicks and increasing the likelihood of a conversion or action deemed valuable by the advertiser.
If you need more customers, more sales, and more visitors, you need Google Ads.
Good question!
With Google being the first online port of call for many searching for products and services online, it only makes sense to be placed directly in front of your audience.
For example:
Sally owns a flower store in the Auckland suburb of Mt. Eden and would like to garner more phone calls and leads through her website.
Weka Online will set up a targeted campaign aimed at relevant search queries in the Central Auckland area.
John is looking for an anniversary gift for his wife and types in 'Flowers Mt. Eden', which triggers Sally's ad, which is then served in Google's sponsored listings.
John clicks through and finds a bouquet that he wants.
John makes a call to order and Sally has the flowers delivered that night.
While this is a very basic overview of the lead generation process in action, Google Ads is just as powerful for online sales through a website, such as a pharmacy or a toy store, selling medicines or the latest Star Wars toys. The potential is almost limitless.
Some businesses are completely reliant on Google Ads for generating customers and clients.
Customers are the lifeblood of any business and Google Ads has proven to be a very effective tool in the art of customer acquisition. Potential customers need to know where to find your products or services and the best place to advertise is where your customers are searching for your products or services.
|A Weka Online consultant will sit down with you and plan out what key phrases we want to target.
|1 Day
|Weka Online will create a series of text advertisements designed to target your audience.
|1 Week
|Weka Online will launch the advertisements and monitor the initial results.

TED Talk: Ancient Climate Mysteries Unveiled By Ice and Corals
Photo via christine zenino (chrissy575) via Fickr Creative Commons
How much of the mystery of past climates can be revealed by prehistoric ice? Rob Dunbar, an expert at reading the sagas told by ancient corals and sediments, is studying the ice of the Antarctic to find out how our climate has changed over the past 12,000 years. His work contributes to how we decide the maximum amounts of greenhouse gasses our atmosphere and earth systems can handle, and what we need to dip down to to stabilize the planet. In a powerful TED talk, Dunbar discusses how of all the problems we face with CO2, it's ocean acidification that scares him the most. But check out what sediment samples taken from the floor of the Antarctic ocean and centuries-old corals reveal about the ebb and flow of global temperatures.
Using evidence from sediments and corals reveals what is natural and what isn't about past and current temperature changes. It's incredible -- and startling -- to learn how today's temperatures and earth system chemistries vary from those of decades, centuries, and eons ago.
Dunbar is also a very talented nature photographer -- check out his awesome photographs of arctic animals.

The Morning Edge Of Crystal, Beyond Diesel, Angels of Spring
Sheering light uncovered the truth beholden we are upon the failure screaming see me essence spoken empty no trust. Impassable paths conquer thoughts
to the one the only you solid ground ripped speak upon the flowing breeze forgiveness edge of crystal feared my heart
sound to the mind melting to soft rhythms shutting down emotions we can be star vapour in goodness walking embrace my life equal no divisions we are upon the same
Motions travelling thoughts to wake bound by emotions tearing visions
sound upon the sound of tears falling dry my bones crack foretelling
futures breathing easy no more grasping empty
angelical essence stare my core
burning deep the blood runs beyond diesel heart upon
heart thrown pierced eaten alive save the light save soul dusk falls
Save me angels of spring I believe in you take me from disaffection
as I light another cigarette slow death of age this hurts bounds suffocation of the heart
walking the path of disadvantage placed words bound bondage to the core
crying sounds of the lost clawing stone undeserving light evaporation darkness
warm caress of seasons change dew drops fresh unique flow
found fallen naked lifted from soil
release from pain time as the flame burns
answers to the light given.

Interset Named a Top Emerging Cybersecurity Company of 2014 by Security Innovators Network (SINET)
Winners of Prestigious Technical Award to Showcase Cutting-edge Technologies Addressing Cybersecurity Threats and Vulnerabilities at National Press Club in Washington
Ottawa, ON, Nov. 6, 2014 – Security innovator Interset has been selected a winner of the annual Security Innovation Network™ (SINET) 16 Innovators competition, a prestigious technical award for cutting-edge technology companies addressing cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities. The competition is supported by the Department of Homeland Security, Science & Technology Directorate. Interset was selected from a pool of 180 applicants worldwide and will showcase its highly intelligent and accurate enterprise threat detection solution at the SINET Showcase to be held Dec. 3–4 at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C.
Interset has developed a cutting edge approach to security behavior analytics using multi-level, predictive mathematical models and unsupervised machine learning integrated across a big data neural network. This approach reduces noise and removes false positives, while increasing accuracy and timeliness of threat detection. Unlike first generation analytics tools, Interset not only extracts metadata from security, network and SIEM products, but uses standalone, lightweight end point sensors and revolutionary enterprise layer application connectors to offer greater visibility into where high risk events occur. This combination of risk visibility and advanced math delivers early and accurate detection of high risk threats, insider attacks, compromised systems and account takeovers, coupled with actionable forensic data giving even small security teams the tools to stop data compromises.
"Organizations simply cannot protect the sensitive data within their businesses — headlines prove that almost every week. DLP and SIEM tools may detect evidence of an attack, but lack the intelligence to surface and connect that evidence, so it remains lost in the noise of thousands of alerts. Gateway and network systems detect only a limited threat surface, and when bypassed, offer no defense in depth across an organization," said Interset CEO and President Dale Quayle. "By applying predictive math and the science of behavioral analytics to the events captured by these systems and our own specialized sensors, we capture more data and use computing intelligence to analyze, connect and surface actual attack events across an organization quickly and accurately. With big data, greater context is available so surfaced attack events include actionable forensic information. We're very pleased to be recognized for our contribution in this important area."
About the SINET Showcase
SINET Showcase provides a platform for the business of Cybersecurity to take place as emerging technology companies are able to present their solutions and connect with a select audience of nearly 400 venture capitalists, investment bankers as well as industry and government buyers. The program, which is supported by the Department of Homeland Security, Science & Technology Directorate, also features commentary on the latest investment and Cybersecurity trends from the industry's foremost experts. The program includes educational workshops, panel sessions, an interactive luncheon hour and a networking reception.

The Paper Players PP258-A Clean-and-Simple Challenge from LeAnne
This is a one layer card with just stamping and sponging.
I used a stamp set from Seaside Stampin' Ink-Beach Stories, Stampin' Up Tip Top Taupe and Very Vanilla card stock, Stampin' Up Inks-Soft Sky, Crumb Cake, Pear Pizzazz, and Delightful Dijon. I even used a Stamp-a-ma-jig to get the sentiment straight, hmm, that would be a user error. Even with tools to get my lines straight I still live life at a slant. LOL
The Paper Players is another one of those sites that I used to play at on a regular basis and I'm revisiting them. They've always had fabulous Design Teams and nothing has changed.
Click on the link above and enter, I actually got this entered on the first day of the challenge so there is plenty of time to play.
Happy Creating--

All nuts have different nutrition credentials and will offer various health benefits. Frequent nut consumption has been associated with better metabolic status, decreased body weight as well as lower body weight gain over time and thus reduce the risk of obesity (1). Moreover, nut consumption has been linked with reduced risk of certain cancers (such as colorectal, endometrial, and pancreatic neoplasms) and protects against depression, mild cognitive disorders and Alzheimer's disease.
Here's a rundown of a couple of our favourite nuts:

Do you find yourself chasing "something more"?
We are people seized by longings we can't seem to satisfy. It's built into us—in our very bones. We were created with an innate desire to be a part of a world and a story bigger than ours. Sadly, however, most of us spend our lives blind to the fact that this story and this world are right in front of us, beckoning to us to come and play our part. We keep on with our focused, relentless pursuit of everything else and find ourselves dissatisfied.

Steve Will, chief IBM i architect for IBM, sits down with Dave Perco (Director of Power Server Sales at Able-One Systems) to discuss where the IBM i has been, where it is today and his thoughts on the future of the platform.
0:52 – Back in 2013, IBM celebrated the 25th anniversary of the introduction of the AS 400 and the predecessor to our current Power server. Looking back what was in that original design you feel that created the Power servers longevity?
3:42 – All those features, and components in the original design are they still in today's Power systems running IBM i?
5:02 – Elaborate on that a little bit, a lot has changed in the last 28 years, what has been done to keep Power systems running IBM i, current?
7:06 – Today, what research & development investment is IBM making in Power systems and IBM i?
9:38 – (Strategy) Explain IBM's roadmap today for Power systems and IBM i?
13:50 – Do you see IBM i marketplace growing worldwide?
16:28 – So IBM has a roadmap for future Power systems and IBM i and the marketplace is growing… do you see this being a viable solution for the next 10, 15, 25 years?
In 2013 IBM celebrated the 25th anniversary of the introduction of the AS 400 and the predecessor to the current Power server. Since its inception, several architectural elements of the AS 400 were, and still are, revolutionary. Even throughout the years where the hardware architecture has changed, you didn't need a full recreate with IBM i. The reliability, and the longevity of IBM i, remains an everlasting investment protection with a consistent low total cost.
The consistency of IBM i is reflected in the fact that all the features, components and preceding architectural elements in the original design are still there in today's Power systems running IBM i. As Power moved to having AIX and Linux run alongside IBM i, client server solutions required more components that were incorporated into the operating system. These new capabilities were added over time without disrupting the client base (i.e. the cloud environment in the 2000's).
To keep IBM i current, IBM has regularly pinpointed what solution providers and what partner channels are demanding. For instance the current trend towards flash storage, a single level storage system, integrated database, open source software and newer applications that look towards virtualization and the cloud.
Today, IBM is making significant investments in research & development for the future of Power systems and IBM i. On the hardware side, modifications are market responsive and necessary for the future of IBM's reshaping as a solutions based company. IBM's is currently branding itself as a cognitive/cloud based organization with one of the most important services being Watson. Watson is built on top of much of the same Power hardware that IBM clients use, therefore it is important for IBM to continue investments in order to maintain/update capabilities of Power hardware for current (and future) Watson workloads and IBM i workloads. On the software side, Steve Will describes the global collaborative effort from IBM i teams in Toronto, China and the main base for IBM i in Rochester, Minnesota that are working together to continue to retool IBM i for the future user.
IBM outlines much of its future plan for IBM i in its white paper titled "IBM i Strategy & Roadmap" (link). Major releases for IBM i are planned through until 2027 and ongoing support continues to exist for each major release for 7 year periods, respectively. Furthermore, IBM i teams work on "technology refreshes" on new and the immediately preceding release, twice a year, to incorporate new functions. The IBM i global marketplace continues to grow. On the hardware side, growth is expected to maintain despite the cyclical nature of the marketplace (i.e. platforms depreciate, leases expires and buying occurs simultaneously from many channels). On the software side, growth is expected to last a long time. The marketplace continues to need solutions that the future of organizations depend on; mobile interfaces, cloud and analytics lead the charge for future expenditure and its these areas that future growth is expected as people continue to reinvest in the IBM i platform.
When asked about IBM's roadmap for the next 10, 15, 25 years, and whether IBM sees Power and IBM i as continuing to be viable solutions for customers, Stevel Will describes how his 31 years at IBM have shown IBM i resilience in the marketplace and how he expects that to continue for the next 31 years and beyond. Investments in IBM i are being made to have the operating system last at least as long as then, with current investments revolving around maintaining scalability, cloud and virtualization.

The Running Dream by Wendelin Van Draanen
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
Book Title: The Running Dream
Author: Wendelin Van Draanen
# of pages: 332
Genre: Sports Fiction
The Running Dream took place in an unnamed American town set in modern day. The main character, Jessica Carlisle, is one of the most inspiring characters I've ever read about. She is resilient and tenacious, a character who is easy to love, as she undergoes her triumphant recovery. Jessica's drive and determination to return to the track after the tragic loss of her right leg was both as trying as it was heartening. Jessica possessed many an admirable quality, overcoming a seemingly-endless battle with depression, pain, and grief, to become a mentally and physically stronger person.
The Running Dream follows Jessica Carlisle, a track star at her local high school, whose promising running future has been cut short due to a tragic bus accident that caused her to lose her right leg below the knee. As she slowly and painfully leaves her hospital bed and returns to the limited amount of normalcy left in her life, Jessica discovers that her wishful dreams to run again are only $20,000 out of reach. Throughout the course of eight months, the reader joins Jessica as she returns to school and her sympathetic track team takes on the hefty task of raising the money to purchase Jessica a prosthetic running leg. Ultimately, through extensive pain, angst, and frustration, Jessica finds herself running again, only this time, she has incredible new friends beside her and a newly-earned sense of profoundness and wisdom to carry with her.
From start to finish this book felt like a beautifully written and painfully honest journey that forces the reader to open their eyes and be thankful for what they have. As I followed Jessica over the course of eight painstaking and emotional months, I felt as though I was right there with her. She inspired me to try to become a better person and a better runner, and now, in both my life and on the cross-country course, I will think of Jessica and her tireless fight to earn her life back and push myself the way Jessica did.
I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in running, self-improvement, or even someone who would just enjoy reading a heart-warming story about overcoming personal obstacles. Check it out; I think you'll agree, it's worth your time!

We checked in with Nivedita ShivRaj for more insight into her artistic endeavors.
What are some highlights of the past year?
Leading a veena ensemble concert with ten veenas at the Flushing branch of the Queens Library for Make Music New York, and an individual grant award from QCA for 2013. In 2011, a really momentous year of my career, I led my world music band Charanams to victory at WNYC's Battle of the Boroughs contest. My band was the winner both in the Queens battle and the Ultimate Battle among the five boroughs. We performed my compositions 'Himalayan Queen' and 'Hudson Ride.' I also performed at Central Park SummerStage and Lincoln Center during the Mayor's Arts Awards ceremony.
Can you walk us through your creative process?
My compositions are inspired by the beauty of nature. Every raga (a melodic tune) has a unique character and beauty. My compositions reflect the beauty of the raga on the broad landscape of nature that I experience. I compose pieces that do not have lyrics; they have only music solfèges called swaras based on Indian ragas. The pieces are not set in any language and have no words or story to tell. The emotions are conveyed in a manner akin to sign language. The compositions are woven with solfèges to create a tapestry in such a manner as to give the listener a unique experience, giving them an opportunity to perceive it from their viewpoint.
What are your secrets to finding balance between your work and home life?
Scheduling and multi-tasking. I schedule my errands and all my chores just like the way I schedule my classes, performances, and all other music-related work. My calendar is my most efficient tool. Next to that I always try to do more than one thing at a time. For example, my phone conversations—especially the lengthy ones with my family in India—are mostly when I am cooking and cutting vegetables or ironing clothes while watching TV at night.
Describe how you feel when you are composing and performing.
Composing is a very positive feeling. I am expressing the joy of life, beauty of the world, and humans as I see. It's a learning experience, learning to appreciate and express it in the form of music, and also express my thanks for the blessings I receive. Performing is a very humbling experience. Every performance is a test, an exam where the audience is the master. There's this challenge to give our best, to connect with the audience through compositions without lyrics and a story to tell.
What are you looking forward to?
I am now composing new pieces for my world music band Charanams and for my veena ensemble. I will be presenting them in my upcoming concerts in August—veena ensemble at Langston Hughes Library in Corona—and in the fall, Charanams at the Langston Hughes Library and the Queens Central Library in Jamaica. While the pieces for the veena ensemble are Carnatic-South Indian classical, the compositions for Charanams are multi-style.

Planners of the East River Houses laid out plans for Playground 103 in 1940 with the names East River Drive Playground and F.D.R. Drive Playground. Designed by Voorhees, Walker, Foley, and Smith, the ten-story, 12.5-acre complex was one of the earliest housing projects, initiated after the 1936 founding of the New York City Housing Authority. Mayor Fiorello H. LaGuardia (1882-1947) was on-hand for the East River Houses' 1941 opening. Currently 4000 people live in the Houses.

Direct experimental determinations of the birefringences of quartz in the 0.6–2.6μ region were made by means of channeled spectra. Up to 2.0μ, the experimentally determined birefringences of quartz were found to agree within experimental error with values obtained by subtracting from each other independently measured refractive indices,n0 and ne, as listed in the International Critical Tables. Beyond 2.0μ, the experimentally determined birefringences gradually became appreciably smaller than the corresponding (ne−n0) values. The variation appears to be associated with the moderately strong absorption band of quartz, which occurs at about. 3.0μ, and suggests the possible existence of two sets of birefringence values near such a band.

Fabsugar Interview With Model Cameron Russell
Model Cameron Russell Doesn't Pull Together Outfits, She Lets Them Collapse!
We have a few major model crushes here at Fab: Lara Stone, Daria Werbowy, Lindsey Wixson, Natasha Poly — and now add to that Eva Mendes look-alike Cameron Russell! Not only does she have major sex appeal, but even better, she's a brainiac, too. Cameron attended Columbia University, majored in economics and math, and also writes her own blog, Funny and Interesting. We recently caught up with the American beauty to discuss Fall trends, her personal style, cheap thrills, and upcoming philanthropic projects. Read it all below.
FabSugar: How do you approach dressing/styling day-to-day. Do you plan the night before, stick to a certain go-to style, or do you dress according to your moods?
Cameron Russell: I usually decide what to wear in the morning, but sometimes, I'll have a favorite coat or sweater or shoes, and I'll wear them everyday for a week!
FS: How do you deal with "I have nothing to wear" moments?
CR: Instead of trying to pull it together, I just let the whole outfit collapse. Usually this means I end up in these crazy MC hammer pants and black hoodie, or baggy men's jeans and an old t-shirt. Then, since I live in NYC, I pull on a giant coat and cover up the whole fashion disaster.
To hear more from Cameron, and to see some hot photos, read more
FS: What do you think of Fall's ladylike and military trend? Have you embraced them? Do tell!
CR: My style is definitely not ladylike — frills and bows kinda scare me — but I like the military look because I love that olive green khaki color.
FS: It's a common misconception that all models and celebs dress in strictly designer pieces, especially with chains like Forever 21 and H&M making such cool collections. Are there any places you shop that might surprise our readers?
CR: A couple of my favorite things came from used clothing stores, and H&M is great. My favorite jacket in the world is this black silk-lined baseball jacket with embroidery all over it from Vietnam. I found it in a vintage store in Tokyo. Unfortunately, it's getting really fragile with age, so now I'm afraid to wear it all the time.
FS: What are your top online shopping destinations, and why do you love them?
CR: Amazon because of my Kindle addiction, and their incredible used book collection (you can find anything!) Ebay, obviously. Etsy; I found some really cool vintage stuff and love seeing how creative all those people are.
FS: What are some styling tips or advice you can share with our readers?
CR: I like it when getting dressed is easy, so my advice is to buy things you really like and work with most of your clothes. Having a couple really great basics makes it easy to dress well every day. For me, this is a good miniskirt, one good pair of blue jeans, and one good pair of black skinnys, good boots, flats, and heels, and a few good coats (because I'm always cold!). I think it's cooler when girls have favorite pieces of clothing rather than an entirely new wardrobe every few months.
FS: Any upcoming projects you can get us excited about?
CR: Yes! After creating this ad for 350.org last October, I got really inspired to leverage new media and fashion to educate and promote civic engagement. Now I'm working on a big project hopefully launching right before Fashion Week. It won't just be about awareness and learning what's going on in our world, it will also introduce and facilitate opportunities for engagement in our communities.

Zoning Bylaw
The Zoning Bylaw is a regulatory document that facilitates implementation of the City of Saskatoon's Official Community Plan. All land in the City of Saskatoon is assigned a zoning district and subject to development standards associated with the zoning district. Parking, permitted uses, and setbacks are included in these regulations. In the event that a property owner wishes to change the use or form a building and the proposed changes do not fall within the applied zoning district or Official Community Plan land use designation, applications to amend the Official Community Plan and Zoning Bylaw can be submitted for review. Applications are reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
Bylaw No. 8770, the Zoning Bylaw, was enacted in July 2009. Related inquiries and requests for confirmation can be directed to the Planning and Development Division.
Development Portal
The Development Portal is a publicly-available tool that allows the public and development industry to see more detailed information regarding land use and servicing components. It is intended to let interested individuals perform their own research. Over time additional functionalities will be added to this resource.
Zoning Bylaw Review
The City of Saskatoon is currently undertaking a comprehensive review of the Zoning Bylaw.
Zoning Bylaw Review
Why are we reviewing the Zoning Bylaw?
The Zoning Bylaw last underwent a review from 2007 to 2009. To align with identified strategic priorities and current trends, a range of amendments will be considered, including business-friendly and economic-development initiatives, environmental initiatives and other current trends in planning. Amendments will also align with other strategic City initiatives, including the Plan for Growth, the Culture Plan, the Saskatoon North Partnership for Growth Regional Plan and the redesigned Official Community Plan (to be completed in 2019).
What do we hope to achieve?
This project will undertake a review of the Zoning Bylaw to ensure that it meets current and desired trends in commercial, residential and community developments. The review will include amendments that fall within the following themes:
• Review of Commercial and Mixed-Use Zoning Districts, including all commercial zoning districts from Neighbourhood-level commercial to City Centre, as well as the Direct Control Districts for regional retail areas;
• Regulations to accommodate new forms of development;
• Environmental initiatives, including green roofs and alternatives for hard surfacing;
• Review of parking requirements throughout all zoning districts;
• A review of residential infill regulations;
• Clarifying amendments to respond to issues identified by the development industry, design professionals and Civic Administration;
• A range of minor amendments to address housekeeping items; and,
• Revisions required to implement recommendations from the new Official Community Plan and other civic plans and studies.
The Review will also include the development of a digital platform for the Zoning Bylaw.
What is not included in the review?
The Zoning Bylaw project will not consider specific zoning requests - these are better handled through the development review process.
The project will also not include a review of the organization and basic structure of the Zoning Bylaw.

I'm a product-oriented developer working mostly with web and mobile applications.
Zebra 2.0 (Android)View on GitHub
Boletos are a popular way to pay for things in Brazil, more commonly used to pay bills (rent, utilities, etc). Zebra is a boleto manager that allows you to scan a barcode and store the boleto in the app, create reminders to pay boletos and also get the boleto information whenever the user needs by opening a link.
This is the Android (and updated) version of the app I released in 2014. I worked on this app mostly to improve my React skills, and because of that it doesn't have any limit to use it's features.React Native TypeScript Redux Redux-Saga
Split (iOS)View on GitHub
The main goal of Split is to help in those awkward situations when you're out dining with friends and the bill arrives, but not all of you ate the same thing (and some even shared among themselves.) To fairly split the bill, you'd have to divide correctly each item between who consumed them, and that's where Split shines by offering an easy and fun interface to do that.
The app not only allows you to split the bill, but also you can add the tip and tax, both of which will be slipt according to each person share of the bill.Swift ReSwift Firebase Analytics
Payleven (iOS)
Payleven's business is processing credit/debit card transactions and the app works as the interface between the card reader and the servers. t has the same basic functionalities as the Square app.
I built the app from the ground up and it's been the most successful project I worked on so far, being used by thousands of user everyday. It reached the Top 10 most downloaded financial apps during it's launch week.Swift ReactiveCocoa Crashlytics MVVM
Bigger Leaner Stronger (iOS)
BLS is an e-pub reader with more features, such as allowing the user to subscribe to the book newsletter. The app is provided free with an in-app purchase of the full book.

This was the first personal project that I developed and released. It didn't attract much interest during launch but nowadays it gets about 10 downloads per day.Objective-C Storyboard GCDWebServer
Quimio (iOS)
Improving communication between cancer patients going through oral chemotherapy and their doctors is the main goal of Quimio. The app is a helper for the patient and/or the caretaker, allowing them to schedule reminders to take pills while also giving options to save the patient's mood. All of this data can be sent to the doctor or shown to them during an appointment, to help them know how the patient felt.
I developed most of this app, including the home screen where there were some challenges regarding the clock and humor graphics.Objective-C Core Data Core Plot Auto Layout GCD
Diálogo Mobile (iOS)
Serving as reference for physicians, Dialogo Roche helps professionals by offering information about medicines, calculators to find out about right dosages and opens a communication channel between the community and the company.

Trivandrum: The Thiruvananthapuram centre of the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC), a premier R&D organization under Government of India, has launched VarthaMozhy, a Malayalam voice enabled news reading system.
VarthaMozhy was launched at TecX13, a three day Technology Expo organised by C-DAC as part of the National Technology Day celebrations at Technopark, Trivandrum.
VarthaMozhy is intended to download news from the specified Malayalam news websites and reads it out according to user input, along with the display.

Interacting with the media, P M Sasi, Associate Director, C-DAC said, "The voice activated and voice enabled news reader VarthaMozhy will help the visually challenged read news websites. Others can also use VarthaMozhy for multi-tasking as they can listen to the news from websites while doing something else."
The user can interact with the system in three modes such as keyboard, mouse or speech.
The keyboard mode can function as beginner mode and advanced mode. Beginner mode is intended for first time users, supported with audio instructions which give every details of operation. Advanced mode intended for experienced users, supported with speech assistance for basic instructions. Both modes are supported with keyboard shortcuts so that even a visually challenged person can operate the system with ease.
In Mouse mode the user can operate the system with just two buttons of the mouse. This mode is very useful for physically challenged persons, since it involve only minimum physical movement. The speech mode enables the user to operate the system through voice commands. Audio feedback facility is provided for recognized commands so that even a visually challenged person can operate the system though speech. In addition to these facilities, menu and icon driven navigations are also supported in this system
The other features supported by the system are Selection of news topics, Increase / decrease volume, Increase / decrease Font size, Navigation facility such as details, previous and next news, and News archiving facility.
