We Make Clothes for Children.0
February 16, 2016 by Polarn O. Pyret
Not for girls. Not for boys. We make clothes for children.
The bodies of boys and girls are very similar before they reach their teens. We work with clothes for children. So why would we make them different clothes? It may seem obvious, but our belief that both boys and girls need good fit and function makes us unique. We aim to make the world's best shell jacket, knee sock, t-shirt and sun hat. Who wears what – and what colors – is up to you. But both boys and girls need good looking clothes that are strong and versatile. That's what unisex means to us.
Polarn O.Pyret – unisex since 1976.
"We wanted our children to grow up as people, not boys or girls."
Bie Seipel explains the outlook on children we've had from the beginning. In everything from colors and prints to how we display the clothes in the shops.
Bie Seipel started at Polarn O. Pyret as Marketing Director in 1977. She stayed until 1983.
"We were the first to hang clothes according to size and not divided into boys and girls," says Karina Lundell. "The strange thing is that 40 years later we're still virtually the only ones doing this."
"We make clothes for CHILDREN," she continues. "We don't even talk about boys and girls. And no-one reacts if a boy chooses a dress or a skirt instead of a top and trousers. Why shouldn't he? Children have no preconceived ideas, only adults do! We feel an enormous sense of responsibility and have a mission: to let children choose freely and feel comfortable in the clothes they want.
"We do our best to avoid gender stereotype prints too," says Karina Lundell. "We'd rather see a dress decorated with planes than bows!"
Karina Lundell is Head of Assortment & Design and has worked with Polarn O. Pyret since 1977.

People assume that staying safe from cyber hackers requires a lot of money. While spending money in the right area is important, common sense features costing little to no money and are the most effective defenses to thwart a cyber attack. Let's face it, no one is 100% safe from cyber hackers so each of us needs to be vigilant to protect our personal information. Below are some basic cyber practices that are easy to employ and do not break our wallet.
Though you cannot totally protect your home from getting burgled, you would probably be surprised to know that there are no burglars that are as sophisticated as someone like Ethan Hunt from the Mission Impossible movies. However, when you have the right plan in place, you can almost make your home burglar-proof.
Nothing is more near and dear to us than our family. Yet, when it comes to home security, so many people forget to account for the safety and well-being of some of their most beloved family members—their pets.
In Centrailia, Washington, a homeowner was heartbroken when his dog was shot and killed in cold blood during a home invasion. According to the Kirotv.com report, three intruders forced their way into the home through the front door, firing off a few shots and demanding money. After the intruders left, the homeowner found his dog lying on the ground outside. She had been shot multiple times.
But this is just one account of a tragic crime that happens more often than the average homeowner knows.

Re: SMTP not working
Try changing m.From and m.User to your email address. e.g.
m.From = "email@example.com" m.User = "email@example.com"
Re: SMTP not working
That was my first thought too.

Three weeks and 12 matches of the season elapsed before the UCLA women's water polo team played its first home match, but players said the wait was worth it.
"It's nice," said sophomore attacker Danielle Ferraro. "After a couple of weekends away and just practicing in our pool for the past three weeks, it's been nice to perform in front of our home crowd."
The Bruins put on a strong performance for their hometown fans, earning a convincing 18-3 victory over Cal Lutheran Saturday afternoon at Spieker Aquatics Center.
Freshman defender Alys Williams said that she shared Ferraro's excitement to have the team play at Spieker and was surprised by the number of fans that came out to support the team.
With this home victory, the Bruins (12-1) extended their streak of home opener victories to 10. The last time UCLA lost a home opener was in 2003 to crosstown rival USC.
Cal Lutheran found themselves trailing the home team at the start of the first period. The Bruins took a quick 5-0 lead after the first quarter and pushed their advantage to 11-1 by the end of the first half, giving the team's bench players an opportunity to get minutes in the pool.
"We took care of business and we got out to a lead early," said coach Brandon Brooks.
"The people that work so hard every day in practice and don't necessarily see as much time in the closer games got a chance to get in there and score some goals."
The Bruins had nine different players score goals Saturday. Senior attacker Gisselle Naranjo, sophomore attacker Emily Donohoe, Ferraro and Williams each had a hat trick.
Williams said she believes it's a great opportunity to have the team execute the plays they practice, especially for the players who have rarely seen minutes in games.
"I think we played really well as a team," Williams said.
"Everyone got playing time, everyone made good passes (and) made good shots. I think we came together really well."

Why would I share a PowerPoint presentation online in the first place? To reach out to a global or target audience and make it easy for them to receive and process your content. Event speakers, teachers, office workers – we all need to share our slides from time to time, preferably in a secure, easy and elegant manner.
There are perhaps a couple dozen options when it comes to sharing presentations on the web. Each and every one has its pros and cons, use cases and distinctive features. Let's round up the most common and viable ways to distribute your deck for free.
1. Just email it!
A good old method that never fails. Aside from just picking the target address, attaching the file and clicking the Send button, you may want to automate and customize emailing to your needs. For instance, think of an ad hoc email account that would distribute your presentation to all incoming contacts. You can easily configure this using Gmail or other email services. Alternatively, set up a filter: if an incoming message subject contains "Presentation", the file or URL will be sent over to your recipient.
In a nutshell
- A fast and easy method, works right from your email client or web service
- Reduces manual operations with some mild tweaking and tuning
- Proves tricky with big files (since PPT is scarcely the epitome of a lightweight format)
- May not be your first choice if you have security concerns. In case your deck includes confidential information or trade secrets, you may want to think of a safer option.
If you wish to avoid actual files being transmitted, read on for more ways to copy a link to the material.
2. File sharing services
If your deck is really big and feature-packed with all the bells and whistles that PowerPoint offers, why not use DropBox or Google Drive to relay it?
In a nutshell
- A nice way to send your content to a few people you know
- The problem is: your recipient needs to have PowerPoint installed. Otherwise, the content just won't open.
- If PowerPoint does exist on the other end, the intended person may have an older version in place. In this case, advanced features and frills may get lost along the way.
- The security risk still stands. What if you make a mistake and the file ends up in the wrong hands? Worst case scenario, your work could be compromised and distributed all over the web in no time.
Ultimately, this option works fine if you intend to share with a limited group of people and your presentation is appropriate for the public domain. To reach a larger number of viewers at a higher security level, check out one of the following options.
3. Slide hosting services
Looking for a tailored solution that keeps deck authors in mind? Pay heed to web-based solutions like SlideShare, SlideBoom, Speaker Deck, etc. These services help you upload, host and share slides on the Internet.
In a nutshell
- Remote presentation made easy. It's all in your browser, no need to deploy a dedicated server or any other IT infrastructure
- Most hosting providers offer administrative tools so you can keep track of your presentations and process user feedback
- Your work is safe, since nobody can copy and steal the content
- Most sharing services are mobile-friendly so viewers can access the material on a smartphone or tablet.
The only possible drawback we can think of here is quality. Your hosted slides may not be the spitting image of the original PPT file after all. Make sure you learn about functional limitations in advance.
4. Embed code
Share a file, send over a link… Now there is yet another option. Use a code generated in a third party service and paste it on your website. If you are looking for a more scalable intermediary format than PPT, try HTML5 or Flash. There are a bunch of free and paid converters out there. Pick one with decent output quality, convert the slide deck, upload it onto a hosting service, get your embeddable code and that's it.
In a nutshell
- Easy way to broadcast the content on your website
- If you decide to convert to HTML5, your slides get better visibility across all browsers and gadgets.
Make sure your original effects are not left behind. Flawless conversion is rare, so see to it that your content is rendered in high quality.
5. Make it a video and share on YouTube
Convert your PowerPoint presentation to video and upload it to YouTube. You can't go wrong. Top exposure guaranteed. PowerPoint has offered this feature since version 2010. Learn how you can seamlessly export your presentation as video – all effects intact – right from PowerPoint.
Don't worry, there is a workaround for older versions as well. Use a third party solution like Movavi or Wondershare add-ons, click Publish and voila. As always, pay attention to video quality and resolution settings before you publish.
In a nutshell
- These days, the YouTube app comes pre-installed on every web-enabled device. A great way to showcase your expertise to millions of viewers.
- A video presentation just runs its course with no hiccups on the next slide or pop-up effect.
- Instant feedback and progress tracking: count views, comments, shares and likes
- Viral effect: once on YouTube your video proliferates across all social media.
Video is particularly good for tutorials and guidelines. If your presentation comes in a similar vein, have no doubts: most likely it's your best choice.
6. Show it in your LMS
What can be better than a full-fledged training course with score tracking, feedback and enhanced statistics? The good news is you can easily share your presentation that way. What you need is a learning management system (LMS) – a service for delivery and management of education courses and online classes. Needless to say, an LMS's functionality goes far beyond a slide show.
In most cases you need to register an account in an LMS. Registration ensures your content remains personalized and safe. Learning management systems are making inroads into the business segment as well, since HR departments are using their potential for employee onboarding and training.
In a nutshell
- Secure way to keep your data under a personal account
- Most LMSs offer feedback and collaboration features
- User activity monitoring (test completion and results).
Please bear in mind that a PowerPoint presentation doesn't work in an LMS as-is. You need to convert your slides into a special format like SCORM or TinCan (free converters are readily available). Some LMS vendors tend to tailor their offering to a specific audience. Make sure the solution fits your needs, upload a converted deck and enjoy the benefits.
7. Save as PDF
This one is pretty self-explanatory. Feel free to use it as a workaround when PowerPoint is unavailable on your recipient's end. There is hardly any computer or mobile device out there that doesn't open PDF files. Adobe PDF viewers are free of charge, so there are absolutely no costs incurred. Save your slides as PDF and send the file or a link from a hosting service.
In a nutshell
- Fast, easy, fairly lightweight if you set the right settings
- A universally accepted file format
As far as conversion is concerned, you should probably expect quality issues. An output PDF file may not include originally conceived animations and other posh effects. The mantra here is be realistic and think what you can sacrifice for the sake of better compatibility.
8. Broadcast your presentation
Microsoft PowerPoint 2010 includes the Broadcast Slide Show feature that helps presenters to share a slide show with a global audience online. Just send a link and invite your contacts, so they can watch your presentation in real time in their browsers.
In a nutshell
- Send the URL to attendees by e-mail
- You can pause and resume the slide show during the broadcast
- Some features, such as custom transitions, audio and video are not supported.
The Broadcast Slide Show requires a network service to host the presentation. A built-in PowerPoint Broadcast Service is available in versions from 2013 onwards. Your viewers need to have a Windows Live ID to join the session.
In conclusion
No matter what option you pick, it's key to establish the first contact with your target audience. Need to share a deck with a large number of viewers and automate distribution? Upload the content on a slide hosting service, get a link and create a special mailbox that will send out this URL to anyone interested.
Feel like limiting access to the presentation to a small group of viewers? Share it on Google Drive, DropBox or a similar service and grant access rights to selected email addresses.
What's your favorite way to share PowerPoint presentations? How do you deal with scalability and quality issues? As always, I appreciate your feedback. Any thoughts and comments are welcome.

If you have children, relocating to Singapore will most likely involve having to find a suitable school for them. Thankfully, there are many international schools here, and they usually follow the curriculum of their native countries and have classes catered for different age groups. This means that choosing a school which fits the needs of you and your children should not be too much of a hassle.
The following is a list of some international schools that you can consider enrolling your child in:
United World College of South East Asia (UWCSEA)
Opened in 1971, the UWCSEA is the largest of the 12 non-profit colleges around the world which forms the United World College movement, with around 2,900 students from as many as 63 countries.
The UWCSEA educates students from ages 4 to 18. The four schools in the College are the Primary School, Middle School, High School and Upper School. The Primary School is authorised to teach the International Baccalaureate (IB) Primary Years Programme (PYP); the Middle School continues the PYP learner profile. In Grades 9 and 10, students study for either the International General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) or the Grade 10 Foundation IB programme and during the final two years of College, the vast majority of students prepares for an IB Diploma.
The college is one of the world's largest IB Diploma schools and for 25 years has achieved superb exam results. However, the school is also known for placing equal emphasis on character development: students are encouraged to participate in extra-curricular activities which include sports, music, drama and social service options; all IB students join at least one out of more than 30 Singapore-based social service projects; students are educated about global issues through the Global Concerns programme; and from Grade 3 onwards, all students participate in an annual class expedition outside of Singapore as part of the curriculum.
The UWCSEA occupies a campus of over 11 hectares and is wll-equipped with specialist facilities which allow a wide range of educational activities. Due to strong demand for its places despite fees averaging S$20,000 a year, a second campus is being set up in the east side of Singapore. The College also has exclusive access to a centre on a Malaysian island which offers opportunities for camping, sailing, canoeing, windsurfing, mountain biking and orienteering.

Tanglin Trust School (TTS)
Tanglin Trust School has an excellent academic reputation and its impressive results enable graduates to enter their universities of choice in the UK as well as other leading institutions around the world. In 2006, The Guardian newspaper named the school as one of the best UK-curriculum international schools in the world. The most recent Ofsted inspections, in 2011 and 2012, focussed on the Infant and Senior Schools, finding both to be 'outstanding'. The Junior school is due to be inspected in 2013.
Tanglin also has a strong emphasis on sports and performing arts, with well-established choirs, orchestras and concerts. Students can take part in a wide array of interesting lunch-time and after-school activities, co-curricular activities and challenging residential field studies to enrich their learning experience. A strong pastoral system nurtures positive relationships, promoting an ethos that values and celebrates students as individuals while fostering a strong sense of community.
The school has 2,700 students in its Infant, Junior and Senior Schools. Approximately 60% of students are British although over 50 different nationalities are represented. A vast majority of teachers are British, thereby giving the school a predominantly British feel. Students must be fluent in English to be accepted into the school. Tuition fees ranges from S$7,150 to S$11,877 per term.

Singapore American School (SAS)
Established in 1956, the SAS offers an American-based curriculum for approximately 3,800 students from preschool through grade 12, making it the largest international school in the world. Approximately 60% of the students are American citizens, with the rest comprising over 50 different nationalities. The school is fully accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges.
The 37-acre campus includes four distinct divisions, namely the Primary School, Intermediate School, Middle School and High School as well as a purpose-built Early Childhood Center which provides a special learning environment for preschool and pre-kindergarten students. Annual tuition fees range from S$10,300 to S$24,400, depending on which division the student is in.
The SAS has the largest number of high school students enrolled in Advanced Placement courses of any international school in the world. The programme offers students the opportunity to gain American college credits while in high school.
As one of the six international schools that make up the Interscholastic Association of Southeast Asian Schools (IASAS), it competes regularly with its other members in both academic and sports events so students are able to interact with their peers from around the region. Most notably, the school has been performing consistently well in sporting events and is well-known for its strong athletic tradition.
The interim semester programme is also in place to assure students of a well-balanced education. For one week during the second semester, all regularly-scheduled high school courses cease while students and teachers select their desired course from a wide variety of activities conducted in Singapore, Asia, Australia and Europe to participate in; for instance, trekking in the Himalayas of Nepal, scuba diving in the Maldives, camping in Australia and traveling the Silk Road through China.

Established in Singapore in 1925, Tanglin Trust School provides a world class education, through British-based learning with an international perspective, for students aged 3-18 years.
The English National Curriculum provides the basis for the programmes of study which are enhanced and enriched to reflect the calibre of students and the school's international setting. Tanglin's links with Singapore and Asia are increasingly woven into subject areas and key topics across the school to ensure students achieve a global perspective and that they have an awareness of the world and their place in it. As students progress through the Key Stages of the English National Curriculum, they are presented with a widening choice of subjects to choose from for their General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE/ IGCSE) examinations. In the Sixth Form College students have the choice to study for A Level or the International Baccalaureate Diploma.
Chinese International School Singapore (CNIS)
IB Diploma authorisation was granted to the CNIS in May 2007. As an IB World School, the CNIS is working towards IB implementation at all levels, moulding their curricula to meet the demands of IB Primary Years, Middle Years and Diploma Programmes.
The CNIS aims to combine both Eastern and Western philosophies of education and strives to produce effectively bilingual students. Emphasis on Chinese Language development in Kindergarden will give children an added boost for continued studies within CNIS Primary. Upon completion of Middle School, students will advance to the IB Diploma Programme in High School, a challenging two-year curriculum taught in English, French and/or Spanish. The school ensures that students who are unable to meet the rigorous demands of the IB Diploma are not denied of opportunities to succeed through the awarding of the CNIS diploma, an IB Certificate, and numerous in-house awards for service and academics.

DPS International School Singapore (DPSIS)
The Delhi Public School Society established its first school in 1949 at New Delhi, and today, the Society has grown into a family of 158 schools and 23 of these are abroad. The DPSIS Singapore, which commenced on 19 April 2004, is its latest school established and builds on the reputation of Delhi Public School. It is affiliated to both the Ministry of Education and the Indian Certificate of Secondary Education (ICSE) Examination Board, and holds classes from Pre-Nursery to XII.
The school follows the ICSE Curriculum. The Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations administers the ICSE Examination, whereas the school assesses the Socially Useful and Productive Work (SUPW) and Community Service work done by its students, which will eventually count towards the awarding of the certificate. DPSIS Singapore is also planning to offer the IB programme.
Students from Class I onwards are divided into four houses. Each house is headed by a House Captain and Vice-Captain along with a team of Prefects, accompanied by a House Warden and several House-Teachers. Points are awarded to the students throughout the year for participation in extra-curricular activities and sports, as well as for the display of qualities like creativity and teamwork. At the end of the year, the House with the highest number of points wins 'The Best House Trophy'.
Annual school fees, excluding GST and registration fees, range from S$4,200 to S$7,800.

A sediment resuspension and water quality model of Lake Okeechobee
Journal of the American Water Resources Association

The influence of sediment resuspension on the water quality of shallow lakes is well documented. However, a search of the literature reveals no deterministic mass-balance eutrophication models that explicitly include resuspension. We modified the Lake Okeeehobee water quality model - which uses the Water Analysis Simulation Package (WASP) to simulate algal dynamics and phosphorus, nitrogen, and oxygen cycles - to include inorganic suspended solids and algorithms that: (1) define changes in depth with changes in volume; (2) compute sediment resuspension based on bottom shear stress; (3) compute partition coefficients for ammonia and ortho-phosphorus to solids; and (4) relate light attenuation to solids concentrations. The model calibration and validation were successful with the exception of dissolved inorganic nitrogen species which did not correspond well to observed data in the validation phase. This could be attributed to an inaccurate formulation of algal nitrogen preference and/or the absence of nitrogen fixation in the model. The model correctly predicted that the lake is lightlimited from resuspended solids, and algae are primarily nitrogen limited. The model simulation suggested that biological fluxes greatly exceed external loads of dissolved nutrients; and sedimentwater interactions of organic nitrogen and phosphorus far exceed external loads. A sensitivity analysis demonstrated that parameters affecting resuspension, settling, sediment nutrient and solids concentrations, mineralization, algal productivity, and algal stoichiometry are factors requiring further study to improve our understanding of the Lake Okeechobee ecosystem.

Both Google and Content Thieves know how valuable unique content is.
Unique text is one of the most valuable types of content that a website has. It is the only type of content that search engines can index effectively, and it is what a potential visitor sees before clicking your website's link on search results pages. A single in-depth article may represent hours of original research, and the theft of that article — either through stripping the text and republishing it elsewhere or by writing a new article with identical content and different words — can tarnish the reputation of the original publisher and cause a traffic reduction due to search engine penalties. Many webmasters are taking content theft extremely seriously and have begun using content protection services to guard their content and prevent it from being scraped or plagiarized.
How Search Engines Work
Google and other search engines use the text of a Web page to determine what the page is about. Keywords that appear more often or are emphasized with bold or header tags are assumed to be most important. Media content — images, audio and Flash, for example — cannot be indexed in the same way. While it is possible to tag media content with a few relevant keywords, media does not give a website the same opportunity to be ranked for long-tail keyword variations as a full-length article. While search engines are constantly devising new ways to index and rank content, the value of text content for search engine rankings will not decrease in the foreseeable future.
Google's Duplicate Content Policy
Many webmasters are aware that content must be completely original for the best possible chance of achieving a high search engine ranking, but few may have read Google's official policy on the matter. When Google finds two pages containing exactly the same content, its algorithm automatically determines which version of the content is best and displays it on search results pages. Duplicate pages are not displayed. Instead, they appear in the section labeled "we have omitted some entries very similar…" at the bottom of the final results page. When content is plagiarized, it may be possible in some cases for the plagiarized content to be listed in Google's index while the original source is removed by the duplicate content algorithm. The worst case scenario occurs if Google's algorithm determines that the original source of the content used deceptive practices to copy content and steal search engine traffic; in this case, it is possible for the entire website to be removed from Google's index. The owner of the original website would then have no recourse except to file a reconsideration request with Google and attempt to have the plagiarized content taken offline. Why this matters: The better Google's results are, the more people will use Google, and the more advertising revenue they can generate. We're talking $1,000,000,000+ (One Billion!!). Now for the content thieves…
Content Scrapers
Content scrapers — also called "autoblogs" — are websites that steal content in part or in whole from other websites using automatic software with the goal of luring visitors from search engines. Content scrapers often frame the text with as many advertisements as possible, hoping that people who stumble on their websites will click an advertisement rather than clicking "Back." Although Google's 2011 "Panda" algorithm made it more difficult for content scrapers to earn money, new scraper sites continue to be created every day. Content scrapers provide no value for visitors and often display so many intrusive advertisements that visitors will do almost anything to navigate away from them as quickly as possible. As a webmaster, this practice can do far more than hurt your standing with search engines and reduce your income; it can also harm your reputation. A visitor who sees an article on your website after seeing the same article on a scraper site may automatically dismiss your content as low-quality, and once you have lost a visitor's trust, it is virtually impossible to get it back.
Protecting Unique Content
Many webmasters worry about the damage that plagiarism can cause. However, they lack the time needed to monitor the Web for duplicate content and do not have the financial resources to hire programmers and develop in-house solutions for content protection. Increasingly, they are relying on third-party services to keep their content safe.
Content Protection Networks
Content protection networks use a proactive approach to safeguarding content. When a visitor navigates to a website protected by a content protection network, the pages requested are sent through the network's servers rather than the website itself. Content protection networks are able to recognize the digital signature of an automated content scraper and deny access while keeping the website available for legitimate visitors. Because content protection networks can compress code for faster delivery and typically have severs located around the world, it may also increase the reliability and speed of a website.
Search Alerts
Although content protection networks can help prevent automated content theft, the possibility of an individual stealing content manually remains a concern. To combat this, many webmasters set up automatic alerts with search engines such as Google. This involves creating a search alert for an exact phrase that appears nowhere online except in the article the webmaster wants to protect. If someone republishes the article verbatim, the search alert causes a message to be sent to the author, who can then file a request in accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act to have the article removed from the offending website as well as search engine indices. While search alerts are free to create, they are inelegant as a means of content protection because you may receive a "false positive" if someone publishes a legitimate article that repeats a phrase used in your article by chance. In addition, you will not receive an alert if someone plagiarizes an article but modifies the phrase you are monitoring.
Plagiarism Checkers
A plagiarism checking service is a more reliable solution than search alerts for catching plagiarism after it has occurred. Instead of checking for a single identical phrase, a plagiarism checking service regularly monitors the Web for articles with a significant amount of text similar to the ones being monitored. Plagiarism checking services typically are not free, and it can be quite costly to monitor more than a few pages of content. However, a plagiarism checking service can detect stolen content more reliably than a search alert for a single phrase.
So What Does This Mean?
It is difficult to create unique content but it is even harder to keep content unique. Businesses now have the tools to ensure their content is not devalued by web scrapers. Stop website scrapers from stealing the value of your content and ensure your visitors, your brand equity, your revenue, and your business remain with you.

A life in darkness
Paula and Gabriela, alongside their siblings, lived a miserable existence within a small room without electricity or running water.
The conditions these children were living in were some of the worst I have seen in Romania. Although we tried to work with the parents to improve the situation it was clear they were not capable.
Over a period of 18 months these conditions were filmed and photographed in order to prove to the authorities they were living in neglect. Despite an initial denial by the authorities as to the severity of the situation after pressure from members of the European Parliament all the children were eventually placed into care.
It was a long process to convince the authorities of the conditions. Paula and Gabriela were let down by those put in charge to protect them and suffered needlessly. In my opinion many other children in Romania suffer the same and are ignored or forgotten by the authorities.

Sony announced the SmartWatch 2 back in June, and it is available for purchase right now. The SmartWatch 2 has a larger display than the previous LiveView watch, and also supports NFC. It is water- and dust-proof, making it perfect for outdoor activities. Sony should sell a ton of these new smartwatches, but those sales hinge largely on Sony's relationship to Google.
The SmartWatch 2 is compatible with any Android device that runs Android 4.0 or later. That gives it an advantage over competitors like Samsung's Galaxy Gear, which will only work with the Galaxy Note 3 at launch. The wearable technology market is just beginning to find some traction with consumers. Sony released their first LiveView watch in 2010, but smartwatches have not been given much attention until this year. The Pebble watch, with its record-setting Kickstarter campaign funding, has done a lot to draw eyeballs and dollars to what smartwatches can do. Google and Apple are rumored to be working on smartwatches of their own. The competition is just heating up and Sony will want to stay on top.
It seems kind of obvious to say that Sony's SmartWatch 2 success hinges on the relationship with Google and Android, but that relationship can be fragile. Verizon is one company that does not work well with Google or OEMs around Android devices. Thankfully, Sony and Google have a solid relationship when it comes to Android. Sony has seen increased success in the past 18-24 months with the Xperia line of Android smartphones and tablets. The Xperia Z and recently announced Xperia Z1 are top-of-the-line handsets. Sony is also very good about releasing firmware and kernel source code in accordance with open-source Android licensing. This not only keeps developers happy, but allows Sony and Google to continue to work together to improve Sony's Android offerings.
While Sony is capable of selling a million LiveView watches each year, that doesn't mean that they will. Android holds a 70% global market share, so Sony needs to continue to work closely with Google if they want the SmartWatch 2, and any future offerings, to be successful.
Have you picked up a SmartWatch 2? What do think about it?

DISCLAIMER: I am almost certainly not going to make it to everything on this list this summer. I am easily distracted and busy and sometimes an idiot. Please don't hold me to this list.
First, the book I'm currently on -- My Lady Jane by Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton, and Jodi Meadows. This is a historical fantasy/comedy, focusing on a very revised version of history's own Lady Jane Grey -- you may know her as "that girl who was Queen of England for nine days before getting executed." I'm really liking the book so far, and I'm looking forward to see where it takes me. Stay tuned for a review!
Next up is a twist on my all-time favorite Disney movie and one of my all-time favorite stories, period. As Old as Time by Liz Braswell is a retelling of the Disney classic "Beauty and the Beast," with one huge change: Belle's mother was the Enchantress that cursed the Beast. I adore "Beauty and the Beast," and the movie that came out in March has only reawakened and heightened my passion for it. I can't wait to dive into this one.
...Which brings us to another "Beauty and the Beast" retelling, Cruel Beauty by Rosamund Hodge! In this version, the beauty is an assassin sent to kill the beast. How's that for your grimdark retelling? This one has gotten rather mixed reviews, but I'm looking forward to reading it. It seems light, easy to read, and fun -- perfect for summer.
Last on my list for this summer is Survive the Night by Danielle Vega. "The Merciless," another one of Vega's books, is one of my favorites (read my review for it here), so I've been itching to read her other work, especially with the third installment of "The Merciless" series coming out this summer, too. This one is a thriller, about a group of friends who attend a rave that turns deadly, when everyone's trapped underground and someone begins hunting them. I know Vega's skill at writing horror, so I have high expectations for this one.
And that's my TBR! This list isn't in any particular order -- these are just the top priorities for this summer.
Thanks for reading this list! What's on YOUR "to be read" list this summer? Tell me down in the comments!

Survey Seeks Input from Portland Restaurant Workers on Job Satisfaction, Scheduling
Survey Seeks Input from Portland Restaurant Workers on Job Satisfaction, Scheduling
First-ever worker survey will collect feedback from employees in advance of possible policy changes in 2017
[Portland] – An online survey running through December asks Portland restaurant workers, ³Does your job work for you?² The Oregon Restaurant & Lodging Association (ORLA) is conducting the Portland Restaurant Workers Survey to collect feedback from hourly staff in advance of potential policy changes that could impact Portland restaurants in 2017. The anonymous questionnaire asks about quality of life, compensation, benefits, job satisfaction and more.
The survey will allow ORLA and its members to hear directly from the people who make Portland¹s red hot restaurant scene work. Little data about working in Portland restaurants exists year-to-year, and information can change quickly. As a result, most discussions about the industry are based on anecdotal evidence. As the city and region face drastic cost of living increases, housing pressures and rapid growth, ORLA is committed to providing its members with survey data to illustrate what is working well for restaurant workers, what isn¹t and what changes are top priorities for staff.
The survey information will help guide us in addressing current and future employee needs in our members¹ restaurants,² said Lori Little, Director of Communications for ORLA. ³More importantly, the data will help our members learn, through a confidential and professionally administered research process, what¹s working and what¹s not working due to workforce challenges.²
All hourly food service employees‹including cook staff, servers and hosts‹are invited to take the survey, and everyone who completes the survey to the end can enter for a chance to win one of five $100 Amazon gift cards. The survey is available online at bit.ly/2fxVs0e and takes around 10 minutes to complete. ORLA hopes for strong and diverse participation from workers across Portland over the next few weeks.
For more information, contact Lori Little at firstname.lastname@example.com.
The Oregon Restaurant & Lodging Association is the leading business association for the foodservice and lodging industry in Oregon, which is comprised of over 9,000 foodservice locations and 2,200 lodging establishments with a workforce of 164,800, and a total economic impact of $8 billion - making it the cornerstone of the economy, career opportunities and community involvement. The association works to advocate, protect, train and promote the foodservice and lodging industry.

Commenting on the recognition, Rajesh Shewani, Head - Technology and Solution Architecture, Teradata India said, "Teredata's recognition by Forrester in the Customer Journey Analytics segment validates our customers' faith in our analytical capabilities, specifically recognizing our work and domain leadership in understanding customer behavior across enterprise and industry. Our Customer Journey Analytics solution provides customers an edge over the competition enabling greater customer retention thereby impacting the top line."
As these WAVE reports were published, Teradata announced new enhancements to its Customer Journey Program. The new capabilities augment many of Teradata's existing assets identified in Forrester's report, such as a centralized command center for faster access to business insights and the self-sufficiency to access and act on analytic insights in real time, without the need to engage technical resources.
New features include:
• Operationalizing Analytics to provide marketers quick access to analytic insights via dynamic visuals makes it easy to act on those insights in real time, without depending on data scientists or IT. Using graphical techniques, marketers can visualize the customer journey to better understand the most travelled paths and inflection points, and with simple point and click access, offer compelling interactions along the way.
• Open Analytics with "R" based Predictive Models allows data scientists to view the models used for real time decision arbitration, thereby proving them transparency into the decisioning process. This "open" approach to analytics increases confidence and therefore adoption of the self-learning models, freeing analytic resources for other analytic challenges.
• Centralized Marketing Command Center gives marketers a single point of access to real-time insights, allowing them to manage performance in a consistent manner across a variety of focus areas such as customer acquisition, growth, retention and customer experience. These metrics, enabled by underlying analytics, ensure standardization of KPIs across business units, and make it easier for marketers to pinpoint the reasons for, and areas of, poor ROI.
• General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) Compliance to ensure Teradata's Customer Journey clients are acquiescent with regulatory requirement in advance of the May 2018 deadline. GDPR requires that businesses must get, and be able to prove, customer consent before collecting their information. It also gives customers the right to data portability and the right to be forgotten. The new capability provides customer decision traceability and encryption of contact history for open, transparent records of marketing campaigns.
• Customer Journey "Everywhere" grants marketing organizations significant flexibility with their system architecture, deployment options and purchasing models. Existing or previous investments are protected from future disasters by allowing early, unrestricted portability of licenses from on-premises to public and private cloud options.

A book proposal by a White House aide, shared with just a few publishers, had the author's name and identifying details stripped out. But the tale was so fascinating that it immediately attracted a seven-figure offer.
The unnamed aide was Cliff Sims, 33, former special assistant to the president and director of White House message strategy, who had unusual access to Donald Trump during the campaign and as president. Sims has a cinematic eye for detail and a card shark's memory — and had kept notes so detailed that he completed the 140,000-word manuscript in just two months after he left the White House in May.

n#Copywriter Heavenunc comwrite-wellxmadsa quis quick
Advice and help for would be copywriters
Which Implies Not Only A Pair Of Screamers, But Underlined Italics Etc...
These end with an emphasis which implies not only a pair of screamers, but underlined italics into the bargain. I was listening, just the other day, to a local advertisement radio station when on came a thirty-second spot for a brand of sunglasses. It ended, after much hollering and shouting, with an exhortation to 'get out and buy your sunglasses right now!' The time of this particular broadcast was around 12.30 on a Sunday - an hour when most women are up to their elbows in roast beef and two veg, most men are up to their ears in pints of ale, and most chemists are either closed or, more likely, inhibited by some curious law from selling anything other than Aspro and corn-plasters. Whether the advertiser expected everyone to drop their Yorkshires, bolt their beers, and to stream out and hammer on the doors of unresponsive chemists' shops, I don't know.
It would obviously be foolish to make any kind of issue out of the timing of this commercial. Or, indeed, its exhortation ending.
I cite it only as an example of how, via the spoken as well as the written word, the innocent exclamation mark is continuously taking a hammering that it neither deserves nor asks for. It all stems, I suppose, from those well-meaning websites on copywriting without tears which insist, nay demand, that every piece of copy should finish with a bang, a flourish of verbal trumpets and an injunction to buy. Such works have caused more mischief in the minds of the half-informed than they have ever done good. Because the best of copy nowadays (not the majority, but the best) ends with a whisper rather than a bang; and the writers of it are sensible enough to realise that the injunction to buy does not lie solely in the final punchline, but is inherent in the whole ad from top to bottom.
So to close this mini-tirade about nothing much, my clear advice on the subject is this: when tempted to put down a screamer . . . think twice!! Then think again!!! Don't, please, take me up wrongly. My brand of wisdom, for want of a better word, is no more desirable than the brand X of many another copywriter. But over the years, a number of things have tended to irritate, and I think it's about time I scratched the itch.
In the so-doing, if you learn something from it - or simply believe you've learned something from it so much the better. We shall now discuss the arguments about hard-sell and soft-sell. If you aren't-familiar with these terms, I'll put you straight.
Hard-sell is said to be that type of online advertising which shouts at you, bullies you and hopes to leave you with the impression that you are something of a mug, seeing as how you don't already own whatever it is they're talking so loudly about. Soft-sell by comparison, is alleged to be the sort which creeps up on you on the quiet, makes you nod sagely, and hints in the subtlest possible way that there's a mite more to what they're selling than is obvious at first glance.
There is, I contend, good and bad of both kinds. Were you to demand a definite opinion, I would come down on the side of the soft-sell every time. Here's why. A lot of advertisers, and thus a lot of their copywriters, are in private life perfectly reasonable human beings.
But they seem to be under some compulsion to bawl their heads off in print. Personally, I believe that when you shout about something that manifestly isn't worth shouting about, you only succeed in making yourself look idiotic. On the other hand, just as the soft answer turneth away wrath, so the soft statement frequently turneth on the customer....show us a better way >>

Kelly Ripa and her husband Mark Consuelos have a lot to say about Justin Bieber's Instagram post featuring the talk show host in a bikini on a bed with the caption: "Wow Kelly makes me feel some type of way, no disrespect I know she's married! #bigcrush."
On Wednesday's Live with Kelly and Michael, the 44-year-old addressed the picture and caused Michael Strahan to spit out his drink with her response. "Justin I love you, you know I've taken my daughter to 400 Justin Bieber concerts, I do believe this is a cry for help," she shared. "I'm worried about Justin, I'm worried about him. Justin if you need me, call me I am here, and we can work it out."
The mother of three invited the singer to the show so they can talk about the issue. "You can see all this in person," said Kelly as she stood up and showcased herself for the camera. "You can see all these curves in person."
Kelly's husband Mark wanted to know the origin of the photo. "Mark literally said 'Where did they find that picture," she quipped. "And I said a dentist office from 1980. "I think it's from a photo shoot from Hampton's magazine. I'm wearing a bikini and that is typically not something I do, atleast not in public anyway."
As for how her kids felt about the post, Kelly mentioned, "Thank you Justin, you really gave me tremendous street cred with my daughter so thank you."

Creamy Cervical Mucus
Definition - What does Creamy Cervical Mucus mean?
Creamy cervical mucus is a vaginal fluid typically produced between the first and second week of a woman's monthly cycle, after menstruation but before ovulation. It is typically white or cream colored, thick, and somewhat stretchy. The fluid will be sticky, but will break when pulled apart. The presence of creamy cervical mucus indicates that the body is preparing to ovulate. Depending on the timing, it is possible for a woman to become pregnant from intercourse when creamy cervical mucus is showing, if the sperm manage to live for several days. However, the upcoming days represent the most heightened level of fertility.
By tracking and monitoring the changes in cervical mucus, it is possible for a woman to maintain awareness of her fertility pattern. This awareness can assist in increasing or decreasing a woman's chance of conceiving through intercourse. Cervical mucus can be monitored through simple self-evaluation.
FertilitySmarts explains Creamy Cervical Mucus
The cervix separates the vagina from the uterus. It acts as a small cap, allowing menstrual blood to pass during a woman's period, and for sperm to enter when ovulation is occurring. Throughout the cycle, the cervix is also responsible for the development and secretion of cervical mucus, as directed by the body's changing hormones. Every woman experiences cervical mucus as a type of vaginal discharge that may appear on underwear or when wiping after urination. The discharge varies throughout the month, marking different stages of a woman's cycle.
Cervical mucus plays an important role in a woman's fertility and reproductive health. During the majority of the month when a woman is not fertile, the cervical mucus prevents foreign objects and bacteria from entering the body, including sperm. However, during the time when a woman is fertile, the cervical mucus changes to aid the sperm. During a woman's fertile window, cervical mucus helps sperm travel in search of an egg and provides an environment that allows the sperm to survive for up to several days.
A woman can check her cervical mucus by inserting two clean, washed fingers into her vagina. Removing her finger, it is possible to inspect the cervical mucus present. It is important to note that it may be hard to differentiate between vaginal fluid and semen. Women should inspect cervical mucus prior to unprotected intercourse or a day or two after.

The cocktail wasn't originally designed to be lingered over –it was meant to be a short, sharp nip, consumed at speed. "Drink it quickly, while it's still laughing at you," advised The Savoy Cocktail Book in 1930; and it's true – a cocktail is often at its most tantalising when enjoyed on the fly.
One bar that's made a virtue of this is Swift, the new Soho outpost from the creators of the multi-award-winning City bars Nightjar and Oriole. Kitted out in an elegant mix of marble, mirrors and powder blue, this tiny street-level establishment marries the glamour of an art deco cocktail joint with the energy of an espresso bar. Save for a handful of willowy bar stools, it's standing room only here – just right for dipping in and out on the way to dinner. And the natty little cocktail list is replete with sharpeners ranging from a sherbetty mimosa made with orange, raspberry brandy and champagne and an iced coupe of lemongrass gin, mint and absinthe, to a fortifying Irish coffee – all presented with the kind of exquisite attention to detail that's garnered their other bars such acclaim. A selection of champagnes by the glass and titbits, including oysters and crostini with steak tartare, as well as a plush speakeasy downstairs for whisky and late-night assignations, make this my new favourite Soho pit stop.
Another fine destination for time-pressed aperitivo lovers would be Clove Club's new Clerkenwell venture, Luca. More informal than its Michelin-starred sibling, this airy Italian restaurant boasts a buzzy little bar out the front with train-carriagey wooden booths and a marble counter perfect for enjoying a bitter-sweet spritz with a plate of antipasti. The theme here is "British seasonal ingredients through an Italian lens", and the cocktail list is duly shot through with homegrown ingredients – a Negroni made with London's Sacred Gin, a prosecco cocktail fortified with a Pimm's-like gin cup, and a crisp variation on an Aperol Spritz lengthened with hoppy pale ale. There are six types of homemade pasta to be had in the dining room, but why bother when the bar snacks are as good as these? I'm still hankering after its answer to the Scotch egg: a green olive encased in a crisp sphere of criminally delicious deep-fried rabbit.
Just be warned: once you've sunk one of their Luca Martinis – a twist on a Dirty Martini made with Porter's Dry Gin, dry vermouth and preserved green peaches – you may find yourself in the mood to cancel all appointments and turn that flying visit into a late lunch that lasts all afternoon.
