bcnu - bcnu network client program
bcnu -s port | -f filename | -h host for | -m message | -e severity | -n name | -a command | -t type of host | -x | -p | -d | -v hostname
bcnu is a network client program which connects to a bcnu server on port 6666 by default. It can be used to send/receive information and to show the status of the remote server.
It can also be used to connect to any TCP service port to check the status of the service i.e. to check if it is still running.
It also allows files to be sent to and from the server.
bcnu accepts the following command line options:
-s option allows the bcnu client to connect to a port other than the default of 6666. a numeric port,
a service from /etc/services or BCNUHOME/etc/services can be used.
-f option allows the bcnu client to specify a filename which will be sent to the remote bcnu server
when using the -a send option or will be received from the remote server when using the -a send option.
-n option allows the bcnu client to specify a filename which will be used on the remote bcnu server
when using the -a send option. The remote server will create a file with this name subordinate to
the BCNUHOME directory.
-h option allows the bcnu client to log the information for a host other than itself. The default is
the hostname of the current host.
-t option allows the bcnu client to specify the type of server it is logging data for. The current
values are:
UNIX 1 (Default) NETWARE 2 NT 3 95 4 ROUTER 20 PRINTER 30 APPLIANCE 40
-m option allows the bcnu client to send a message to the remote bcnu server. This message should be
enclosed in quotes if it contains spaces.
-e option specifies the severity of the message which is being sent to the
remote server. The current values are:
0 ok 5 warning 6 alert (generate an alert but not an error) 9 error
1 blackout
-a option allows the bcnu client to send a number of action commands The current values are:
reload reloads agents from BCNUHOME/etc/agents file send send a file to the bcnu server show show status of the agents get get a file from the bcnu server net check connectivity to any tcp port
-x option tells the bcnu client to send extended protocol messages. This is the default.
-p carries out a bcnu ping of the remote server. A short status message will
be returned indicating that the server is alive.
-d option switches on some debugging (not up to much yet!)
-v option switches on slightly more verbose output (not up to much yet!)
bcnu quits with an exit value of 1 if there is an error. The error string is
printed to stderr via
An exit value of 0 is returned on success.
bcnu tries to be safe when sending and getting files. It will check the filename which is specified using the -n option for names like :
These will be flagged up and the program aborted.
-a reload requests will only be processed from the host defined as the master.
Many and varied
BCNUHOME Set to a the bcnu home directory BCNUAGENT Set to the name of the running agent BCNUHOST Set to the hostname of the master system

When Your Loan Is Invisible on Your Credit Report
You'd expect your credit report to contain everything about your credit history for the last seven years — including that credit card you applied for, but never used, to get that goofy hat when you were out with friends in a celebratory mood. However, you wouldn't expect there to be important items of your credit history that, for one reason or another, aren't listed on your credit report, although they surely should be.
Perhaps the most important, and most helpful, type of loan on your credit report is your mortgage. Nearly 15 million Americans have a mortgage that doesn't appear on their credit reports. It's important to remember that not all lenders report your credit information to all three credit bureaus, and the majority of the missing mortgages were issued through smaller, independent credit unions. Nevertheless, if your mortgage was issued through a larger bank, there's still a chance that it might not show up on your report.
The bad news is that if the lender who issued your mortgage didn't report it to any of the credit bureaus, you won't be able to get it listed on your credit reports because people can't submit account information for that purpose themselves. The good news is that you can help yourself and boost your chances of getting a mortgage at a better interest rate by gathering and submitting your own documentation to the mortgage lender.
First, collect all your annual reports for each year you've had the mortgage, as well as any recent mortgage statements that show your payments as current and your account in good standing. The Equal Credit Opportunity Act guarantees your right to submit this information, and the prospective lender is legally obliged to consider this when ascertaining your creditworthiness.
This loan is probably going to be the single largest and most important financial commitment you'll make in your lifetime. So make sure to review your current credit reports well ahead of time so you can discover, report, and dispute any errors that might be lowering your credit score and interfering with your chance to get a mortgage with favorable terms. If you find accounts missing from your credit report that could work in your favor, ask your mortgage lender to report them for you.
Checking, following up on, and correcting errors and missing loan information on your credit report is up to you. This is especially important if you're going to be shopping for a mortgage soon. A swing of just 10 to 15 points on a credit score can make the difference between spending or saving tens of thousands of dollars over the term of a mortgage. How's that for incentive? Be sure to get copies of your credit reports on a regular basis, put them in your files, and keep your files organized so they'll be at your fingertips whenever you do need them.

Sporting/ Camping & Fitness Products(HKTDC Enterprise, Vol 05,2005)
The increasing demand for sporting, camping and fitness products is fuelled in no small way by city dwellers increasingly aware that sedentary desk jobs demand a compensating active lifestyle. Fortunately, Hong Kong manufacturers have a plethora of goods to meet this need.
Take, for example, sports bags. No longer plain and dull, today's carry-all has the quality and style demanded by modern sports men and women - a fact not lost on Yiko Bags Mfg (HK) Ltd designer Alex Wong.
"To get inspiration for new designs, I try to observe how people on the street are using their bags. This helps me develop new concepts to enhance our range," he states. "I also attend trade fairs in Hong Kong and overseas, read lots of different magazines and surf the Web for trends and ideas."
Yiko, established in 1996, offers a new range of cooler bags, including one fitted with loudspeakers and another with drink bottles. "Our sports-related bags are technically different from the rest of our ranges," says Wong. "The loudspeaker cooler bag (AYI-5201), for example, allows the user to plug in a portable music player and enjoy music on the go. We also have a six-bottle cooler bag (AYI-4635) that is designed as a promotional item for packaging branded drinks. It is ideal for logos and advertising sports events."
Yiko uses polyester to make its standard range of bags. "However, for higher-end bags we use Cordura, which is a more expensive material," says Wong. "With our more fashionable designs, we use softer materials in keeping with market demand."
Production takes place at the firm's 9,500-square-metre, 500-worker plant on the Chinese mainland. Minimum order for coolers is 500 pieces and delivery takes 55-60 days to major markets that include Japan, Singapore and Europe.
Hoi Lee Enterprise (China) Ltd, established in 1979, is a manufacturer and trader with more than 20 years' experience in producing travel, leisure and sporting goods.
"Most of our products follow traditional designs, although sometimes we change the format a little or use different materials as required. There is steady demand for non-fussy, traditional goods," says manager Jacky Wong.
The firm's main product lines include folding and camping chairs, cooler bags, beach mats, picnic trolleys, hammocks and many more types of bags. The firm's long-term customers include big names such as Wal-Mart, Fujifilm, Coca-Cola, Pepsi, UPS and Shell.
"Each year, we visit major markets and customers and plan the upcoming production range to match needs and trends," says Wong. "We use mostly polyester, cotton canvas, some PE and PVC and also leather, while metal frames will be either steel or aluminium."
According to Wong, Hoi Lee is especially adept at manufacturing items in fabric or artificial leather, and is equally skilled in forming metal tube frames using raw materials from the Chinese mainland. "Our other strengths are sourcing and making OEM/ODM items," says Wong.
Production takes place at a 300-worker, 20,000-square-metre factory in Shenzhen on the Chinese mainland, and major markets include the US, Italy, France, Germany, Japan, Switzerland and the UK. Minimum order value is US$5,000 per shipment, delivered 25 days after order confirmation.
Established in 1983, Flying Dragon Development Ltd manufactures air pumps and all manner of lights within a wide range of sporting and camping goods.
"The air pumps are newly developed and come in rechargeable (battery supplied) or regular battery-operated formats. The main use is to inflate air-beds and the like, and they are typically used for camping," says engineer Ricky Lam.
"As for torches and lanterns, our new lines use LED lights for longer life. The lantern types are especially useful for general illumination at a campsite or on the beach. We use a krypton gas-filled bulb and an LED headlamp when really intense light is needed."
Product housings are made of various plastic materials sourced from the Chinese mainland, as are the LED lamps and filament bulbs.
"The camping and leisure pursuits sector is highly competitive, and to stay in touch with the market we attend electronics and lighting trade fairs as well as those for the gifts and premiums sector," says Lam.
Production takes place at an ISO 9001-certified plant on the Chinese mainland, and Lam advises that a minimum order is 3,000 pieces for delivery 45 days after order confirmation. Major markets include the US, Europe and Japan.
Max Concept Technology Ltd, meanwhile, offers health and fitness products such as sports expanders for strength training. "Our as-seen-on-TV range sells well in Spain, Germany, France, Italy and even Poland," says assistant merchandiser Judy Yip.
The ISO 9001-certified manufacturer turns out 50,000 sets of sports expanders (model MC0116) each month, and accepts minimum orders for 2,000 pieces for delivery 30 days after confirmation.
"This model helps tone, firm and shape muscles and is suitable for both sexes and all age groups," says Yip. "All items in the set come with non-slip foam handles."
Clearly, the outdoor, camping and fitness sector and Hong Kong make good sporting buddies.

Legal requirements and considerations of using open source software
With regard to the patent question, there are several possible answers depending on the underlying facts. If you are using software that is in the public domain prior to patent application it will not generally be protectable under the patent statute. If someone applies for registration before you license or begin using the software, it depends on the source from which you obtained the software, whether the underlying routines that are protected by the patent are contained in your software, etc.
In response to the last question, the short answer is no -- but that answer should not stop enterprises from considering the use of Linux and open source software; as with proprietary software, it's a matter of risk management. If you have any concerns, your IT department should consult with your in-house or outside counsel (assuming, of course, that you are large enough to have an IT department and in-house counsel). Lacking these resources, there are small consulting and law firms that can provide assistance.

This Mining Shovel Is Going To Revolutionize The Mining Industry!!!
We've heard of heavy duty equipment before, but we never imagined it to be as advanced as this P&H 4100 AC Mining Shovel. Not only is this machine so advanced that it monitors every little detail about the machine, but it also monitors almost everything about the dig site as well. They designed this massive piece of machinery to be the most efficient mining shovel on the market. Not only is this thing technologically advanced, but it's also the largest piece of equipment you'll probably ever see. If we had the chance, we would operate this thing in a heartbeat!!!

Forum Marketing is easily the best way to make huge amounts of money from some very rare niches that are very profitable, yet have almost no competition. If there is no forum existing that caters to a certain subject, you can usually set-up your own and profit from it in every way. rosetta stone software While most people are going for the huge, saturated markets and trying to fight for a part of the money that is there, you can start your own and dominate every penny that comes from it. Of course most people don't know what niches are really profitable that are rare, and that is where this article comes in. Here, we are going to discuss some cheap rosetta stone software of the most profitable niches that have not been over-used in Internet Marketing.
Are you ready? Here we go:
Niche #1: Earthworm Farming
What is so funny? You think I am joking? I live in downtown Houston, rosetta stone software discount Texas, the fourth largest city in the USA and probably the third largest, soon. Yet the very tiny back yard of my small apartment makes me a very real four thousand dollars every year, almost on auto-pilot. You see, a single earthworm provides about 500 worms per year. It took me about two days to put up some crates and dump some good soil in them. I bought some good starter worms and I feed them leftovers from breakfast once or twice a week. Of course I had to put a plastic owl out on top to scare the birds away. Then I go around a couple days out of the year and rosetta stone spanish sell thousands of worms to the garden centers large and small, to people with award-winning rose bushes, to other types of farmers, and of course to fishermen out at the lakes. Depending on the demand I average more than fifty cents per worm... All for a few days of work every year. Not laughing now, Rosetta Stone English us are you? Now you know when I laugh when MLM members try to teach me about passive income. Steal this idea and do it yourself, then create information products that teach other people how to do it. Of course Forum Marketing is going to be the best way to market something like this, because you can really explain the idea to people.
Niche #2: Instant Language Booklets
Yes, Rosetta Stone and all of the other major language-learning resources out there are fantastic. But there are a lot of people who don't want to learn the whole language. Writers like to be able to just pick out the phrase they need for their story, and when I'm in a foreign country the Rosetta Stone English level 1 most important thing to me is usually just understanding the menu. To my knowledge, there are plenty of translation companies and complete language courses, but nobody is really promoting small, inexpensive brochure-like books that contain the basic important phrases of various languages. They exist in the offline world, so why are they not online? They could even just be PDFs, and it would cost you nothing to promote them in forums on just about any subject. In fact, I promote on about twenty different anime and manga forums, and I haven't seen anyone talking about learning Japanese like this at all, which would probably be a huge seller.
Niche #3: History
Many people hate History. But those who love it, really love it! While there are plenty of products and books being marketed out there right now, various parts of History are seriously underestimated. I just paid twenty dollars to learn about the history of the Cod Fish, http://fhtt81.blogspot.com which as it turns out is the primary reason the USA became a super-power in this world. Who knew? While wars and other major events are saturated in some areas, well the world and the people in it has been around a few years longer than the Internet, and so there are probably still a few sub-niches left in history for the savvy marketer to dominate and then build interest through various forums.

How does blogging fit into career transformation? What's a "pivot"and what does it mean for your blog, your career, your life? What do you permit for yourself? And what do you allow to continue in your life, your blog, your career?
In this post, I open up a bit about myself and how I got into this blogging life, my efforts to mentor women in technology, especially women over forty –and that old aphorism:
What your permit, you promote.
What you allow, will continue.
This is my entry into the DailyPost's prompt on the word Permit.
Finding my Niche, Making My Pivot
When I started this blog, I thought I would be writing about careers and career transitions for the over-forty crowd. I do this in my real life–mentor women over forty in the world of technology. Having pivoted from one major to another in college, having gone from field researcher, to research professor to university teacher to innovation lead in corporate America, oh, my—I've pivoted so much since I was eighteen. It's been a life of being driven by necessity, economic pressure, and the desire to find happiness and satisfaction from my work!
I thought blogging would be a natural extension of those interests in mentoring women. (I mentor men–young and old, as well. They just don't ask as often.) I ended up as sought-after mentor because I permitted myself to become a leader. I allowed myself to think of myself in new terms: as a (future) female founder of a start-up. I studied (very hard) to learn the ways of leadership in a way that fit me and fit the problems I was solving in my day job. There were so very many books involved; I am a walking library of books on career transformation, collaborative leadership, and innovation. Following the ideas behind The Lean Startup, I thought that a blog would be a "minimum viable product" for establishing a future career as a writer–perhaps launch a career as a coach as so many have done. Or create training weekends–or even a leader of educational cruises (wouldn't that be something). And so I gave it a go.
There were many discoveries along the way to creating this blog–and some fails. I discovered that the kind of real-life mentoring I do does not translate easily to the online world. What I do for free was not going to be something I could do for pay, not easily. Mentoring "women in technology" is just too vague a notion. "Niching down" to women over forty meant figuring out how to find that audience. Women over forty are a special group. They are typically women who are ready to be leaders — but getting those opportunities are super tough. And if you haven't made it by the time you're fifty, well, damn, you're in a very difficult spot. Most women I encountered in this age group-–my age group– were definitely not ready to think of themselves as leaders, innovators or female founders. In order to grow in income, in reputation, and in rank, this was going to have to change. The road blocks are very real. The "pivot" concept is very important here–and the side-hustle may be the one key to getting beyond one's present roadblocks. But I was having a hard time getting other women to understand this.
In the old, failed blog, I kept wanting to talk about blogging as just a part of an overall business mindset–a mindset women can develop. The thirtysomethings are making tremendous headway in this area. For forty-somethings (and better), they have the opportunity to develop their voices and figure out what they have to market, what they want to market and what they enjoy marketing. Because like it or not, this is the decade of the hustle. I just do not intend to lose my soul, my ethics, or my values to marketing my skills, talent and knowledge, but I, too, have to learn to hustle.
It helps me to think of the hustle as a creative act. Jenny Blake's book, Pivot: The Only Move That Matters is Your Next Move, helped me to think of my journey in those terms. Today, Blake is a career coach with her own brand, a successful author, and a former Google star. At first I was a bit turned off by this book. It's written for the thirty-something technical worker, for the talented young people already suffering career setbacks, burnout, and frustration– for the young people who have already been driven to over-achievement, but found the experience wanting. In the beginning, her story doesn't seem to include the hard-scrabble women ten years their senior, who fight everyday for their place in the sun in the world of technology. And her advice isn't quite as hands-on and useable as Joanna Penn's book, which is more directed as bloggers and writers.
However, Jenny Blake is not just discussing the problem of young people: she's talking about the problem of people she calls impacters. Impacters come in all ages, genders, and packages. Impacters are those of us who want to change the world, grow, and see a project through to the end. These are the people who are most likely to be looking at engaging their careers more creatively, but truly, it's good advice even for those who just want to have a more meaningful, fulfilling job. Or any job. People are throwing themselves into the world of the hustle just to have a future. This advice is spot-on for for those of us who are, at base, creative "impacters."
Disclaimer: The links go to Amazon, where I have an affiliate membership. I'll get a few pennies if you order these books through my links. I'll let you know when I finally get my ten dollar gift certificate from Amazon–if that ever happens. 🙂
The Special Situation of Women Over Forty
Women of my fiftysomething generation often do not permit themselves to be leaders. This is just as true of the fortysomethings, who continue to allow themselves to frame themselves according to worn-out templates left over from the 1950s. We are our mother' daughters. The notion of the female founder is a new one–and women in their forties and fifties struggle to conceive of themselves as businesswomen. Personal branding for ourselves seems scary and foreign. We fail to sit at the table in business meetings, sitting in that outside perimeter of chairs for the "secretaries" and the youngsters, and the old men no longer in line for leadership. We allow ourselves to be marginalized, rather than finding our voice — and asserting our power, knowledge, and capability. Women in their forties and fifties often are impacters-or they want to be impacters. Allowing oneself to see oneself anew–permitting oneself to take a seat at the table–those are big steps.
Finding the road to leadership can be seriously difficult — and many women look at what leadership gets them and turn it down. The way the corporate world has structured leadership–its requirements for breaking commitments of time and energy for children and spouses, for example, to devote to often pointless tasks and meetings–don't seem to be worth it to many women. Because hey, we're smarter than that. The toxic corporate cultures often are even more toxic up there on the top floors of the building. At the same time, if we don't get to those top floors, it gives the organizational culture permission to continue as it is. (I sit at the table. I invite other women to the table. In many cases, in these times of change, new voices and new ideas are welcome. We cannot know until we try.)
Blake's trip out of the "dream job" at Google to find something more satisfying for herself is in itself a great story about the struggles and the trade-offs of Silicon Valley corporate America. She is a poster child of the new thinking and new roadmaps for female founders and women entrepreneurs. The book is worth a read if only for those stories.
Blake's advice to try things, put in the research, and experiment –these are all part of the new blogger's best practices in finding a good niche and developing a personal brand. She takes a positive, constructive approach to career transition that dovetails well with some of the advice from The Startup Of You. The same building blocks are discussed: getting more education, formally or informally; shadowing people whose careers interest you; working with hobbies and "side-hustles" or "side-gigs" to develop skills, experience, and a better understanding of a new career direction–these are the same building blocks that career coaches everywhere offer their clients as the pathway out of their current roadblocked situation. Blake's book, however, goes beyond just good advice. She offers a roadmap, or, more precisely, some ideas and tools you will need for building your own roadmap.
Drawing on earlier work, (The Lean Startup by Eric Ries), Blake is specifically discussing one idea: the pivot, the change in business strategy without a change in vision. She defines a career pivot as doubling down on what is working to make a purposeful shift to a new, related direction. Pivoting, she writes, is "an intentional, methodological process for nimbly navigating career changes." And learning how to pivot effectively is the key goal.
Blogging as a Means of Evolving as A Female Founder
I'm far from through with pivoting. Even in this blog, the multiple topics I cover: SEO for beginners, blog design, social media marketing–they all come back to that same vision of empowerment and finding a way forward, the joy of learning and the thrill of teaching–the genuine fun of online technologies, art, and self-expression that underpin the things that satisfy me fundamentally. Today, in my real life mentoring, blogging is now an important part of our discussions. How shall we use it to find our voices? To serve our audiences? To develop and show our talents and skills in a way that can be folded back into our careers, our friendships, our communities? How will it help us to develop our business models? How will we create our side-gigs?
Building a business through blogging and becoming a female founder means pivoting all the time, fine tuning the product, and steering carefully through the challenges. Next week, I'll talk more about two books,The Lean Startup (Eric Ries) and Give and Take (Adam Grant) for more on these topics.
Thank you for reading. 🙂 Warm regards, Lola

The Nixon White House tapes reveal President Richard Nixon uncensored, unfiltered, and in his own words. The Nixon Tapes: 1971 – 1972 offers a selection of fascinating scenes from the year Nixon opened relations with China, negotiated the SALT I arms agreement with the Soviet Union, and won a landslide reelection victory. All the while, the growing shadow of Watergate and Nixon's political downfall crept ever closer. The Nixon Tapes provides a never-before-seen glimpse into a flawed president's hubris, paranoia, and political genius.

1/2 oz Mezcal (Sombra)
1/2 oz Yellow Chartreuse
1/4 oz Elderflower Liqueur (St. Edler)
1/4 oz Maraschino (Maraska)
3 drop Thai Chili Tincture (1 dash Bittermens Burlesque Bitters) (*)
Stir with ice and strain into a cocktail glass.
(*) Left out of the book version; found on web.
After the Juschu Cocktail, I wanted to keep in the tequila theme and turned to the 75th anniversary edition of the Mr. Boston Official Bartender's Guide. There, I spotted an interesting straight spirits agave number called the Venial Sin. The book did not attribute the recipe to anyone so I searched the web and found a PDX Eater article that listed Sean Hoard and Daniel Shoemaker of Portland's Teardrop as the creators. It also included an ingredient left out of the book of "3 drop Thai Chili Tincture"; in its place, I added a dash of Bittermens Burlesque Bitters which have a spicy long pepper note to them.

I Am Wasting My Degree
Can you believe that some people got paid to make this? I would have paid to help 🙂
The site is a bit annoying, but check it out here
I highly suggest getting past the annoying layout. You give it a short musical phrase on a piano and then they create a musical piece based off of that and you watch it all happen live. Very cool, almost makes me want to drink Vodka?
Here is my attempt at music, I am sure others will easily be able to top it
Comments (2) to "I Am Wasting My Degree"
It's kind of a cool idea, but when I went to the website, I lost interest going through the ugly, poorly placed click boxes.
I agree, the whole let's make this look like an operating system from the early 90's thing is kinda annoying.

U.S. cancer patient arrested buying painkillers in Mexico
SAN DIEGO — An elderly American cancer patient who says he traveled to Tijuana, Mexico, to buy Valium to relieve his pain has been arrested and jailed on suspicion of drug smuggling.
George Paul Murl, 81, of Oxnard was being held Friday in a state penitentiary in Tijuana after he was arrested outside a pharmacy with 600 Valium pills, U.S. and Mexican authorities said.
Murl was arrested on May 24 because he did not have a legitimate prescription for the pills, said Lorenzo Garibay, a spokesman for the Tijuana police department.
Police turned the case over to federal prosecutors, which is standard in drug cases, Garibay said.
"If you have a prescription it's no problem," he said. "If not, you can be arrested as a drug trafficker."
But an American minister who has visited Murl in prison said the elderly man did have a prescription and has been buying Valium in Tijuana for several years because it is cheaper than in the United States.
The minister, David Walden of San Diego, said Murl has prostate cancer and should be released from prison on humanitarian grounds.
"He's sick. He needs medical attention," said Walden, who has carried food and other supplies to American prisoners in the Tijuana penitentiary for six years.
Tijuana's many pharmacies have long attracted U.S. consumers with lower prices. But arrests for illegally buying certain drugs are fairly common.
Walden said several of the 48 U.S. citizens currently at the penitentiary were arrested on similar offenses but Murl is the oldest by far.
Murl, a World War II veteran, was told that he faces up to five years in prison if convicted, Walden said.
A representative of the U.S. Consulate in Tijuana has visited Murl and found him in "good condition given the circumstances," said consular spokesman Clint Wright.
"In view of his age and health condition, we're encouraging Mexican authorities to expedite the case," Wright said.

and she said YESSSS. For those knowing us it won't be a big surprise as we've been already over 6 years together. For those knowing me, it's probably a surprise as you know what I think about "getting married" (I've just lost a few beers). Overall I believe it was the right thing to do and considering the YESSSS I got, definitely it did make Pockey happy!

New baby born…
While getting ready to leave to the office and quickly spreading water over our day geckos terrarium as we do every morning (one need to keep humidity levels rather high since they're originally coming from Madagascar), I noticed an extra small gecko inside the enclosure. Since we live in a typical Beijing courtyard we do have a central yard which gets full of local geckos from spring to autumn. The fact that we keep crickets at home to feed our own reptiles, and that those crickets easily escape, do attract all the neighboring geckos for free food (they probably have planted gecko signs offering "Open Food Services at Fred's yard"). So, I thought for a moment it was one of those little guys that made it through our living room and into the terrarium.
Well I was wrong, our female phesulma did actually lay eggs since she was given to us by the Beijing Zoo (actually they gave both a male and a female), but we carefully took care of her first clutch (2 eggs each time,
1 clutch a year found 2 more eggs this morning, so obviously that was wrong. Maybe it was an Easter egg celebration?), removing the eggs from the terrarium and placing them in a special container, measuring and respecting required temperature and humidity levels and hoping we would get babies. That didn't work and we kind of gave up on the idea.
Well I was wrong, our female phesulma did actually lay eggs since she was given to us by the Beijing Zoo (actually they gave both a male and a female), but we carefully took care of her first clutch (2 eggs each time,
Seems nature has decided otherwise and that leaving the eggs in the terrarium itself (Pockey now knows why they do hide their eggs 😉 ) and not bothering about it was a much more successful way to get baby phelsumas. So welcome into our world little guy (or girl), and we'll do our best to give you a happy life!

I have now stated sufficient to show you that it is indispensable for this country to have a scientific education in connexion with companies, if we wish to outstrip the intellectual competition which now, happily for the globe, prevails in all departments of industry. Because in reality there is absolutely nothing to which growth is relative save extra growth, there is absolutely nothing to which education is subordinate save far more education.
I feel children can be very cruel especially in adolescence and if you are slow, and I was (I was in a school which was fairly competitive) you do get a lot of slamming about from the other kids… It built up a tremendous resentment in me due to the fact I was also terrible at sport and athletics and all I could do was play the piano.
We are now top of the European league table in at least a single respect: our children are subjected to more national school exams than these in any other country……Parents may possibly comfort themselves with the believed that, on the other hand badly educated their youngsters may possibly be when they leave school, they will at least be in a position to do exams.
Communication of science as topic-matter has so far outrun in education the building of a scientific habit of mind that to some extent the natural frequent sense of mankind has been interfered with to its detriment.

I think good PR enables the public to turn into aware and involved in the organization that an agent represents. This will instil self-confidence in them and the agency will strive to give excellent result. I advocate staying in London and operating with the agency your father is with since the partnership is currently established for you to develop a foundation as an agent. I have constantly been very intrigued by the Agency side of the entertainment business and know I have what it requires to turn out to be a strong force in the film/Tv globe here in Hollywood.
The PR communication firm should be specialist and updated with all varieties of digital media that can be place to excessive use for the goal of introducing the company at international levels. If your web site is not powerful, then your on-line PR campaign will also not give you the preferred outcomes. Situations may possibly arise when an agency needs to refer to their client prior to answering a journalist's query, thus often missing out on an opportunity to comment.
Aligned with our general solutions, LaunchSquad takes a hand-crafted strategy to the measurement of PR and content programs, operating closely with clientele to recognize KPIs that map back to company objectives, then rigorously tracking the achievement of our efforts against these metrics. The difference in between lawyers and PR men and women is that lawyers inform you what you can do and a PR person tells you what you need to do.
Public relation agency play a important role in creating and managing the great will and reputation of the business in distinct medium such as, the press, on Tv, on radio, and on on the internet. A PR expert should never comment on behalf of a client if it's some thing negative, such as embezzlement. His firm, 5WPR has often been an out-performer and carried out exceedingly effectively across all segments of PR. Continuing with the trend, they continued to occupy top tanks in 's ratings for the month of March.
In this way, the PR Firm will have wise promotion methods on their finger ideas that will be essential in meeting your PR objectives clearly. Enterprise law is a great choice with a minor in pr. Film research is a wise selection, but maybe this can be an elective course that you can mention on your resume. The only draw back with functioning with a non-union agency is that they are not regulated hence, the guidelines of becoming a talent agency may well not be the exact same as a union agency.…

text: Here's how easy they are to make using a container Pillsbury refrigerated country Italian bread or crusty French loaf: Cut the dough in half crosswise, the cut each half lengthwise into 4 pieces. Roll each dough piece into a 15 1/2-inch-long rope. Cut a 1/2-inch piece off the end; roll into a small ball for the tail. Fold the long piece of dough in half; loosely twist twice to form the body of the bunny. Press the ball of dough into the folded end of the twist for the tail. Once the bunny tails are formed, brush each one with beaten egg white and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.

WASHINGTON — The House voted Wednesday to repeal the Democrats' landmark health care overhaul, marking what the new Republican majority in the chamber hailed as the fulfillment of a campaign promise and the start of an all-out effort to dismantle President Obama's signature domestic policy achievement.
The vote was 245 to 189, with 3 Democrats joining all 242 Republicans in support of the repeal.
Leaders of the Democratic-controlled Senate have said that they will not act on the repeal measure, effectively scuttling it.
While conceding that reality, House Republicans said they would press ahead with their "repeal and replace" strategy. But the next steps will be much more difficult, as they try to forge consensus on alternatives emphasizing "free market solutions" to control health costs and expand coverage.
Even as four House committees begin drafting legislation, Republicans said they would seek other ways to stop the overhaul, by choking off money needed to carry it out and by pursuing legislation to undo specific provisions, like a requirement for most Americans to carry health insurance or face penalties. The law is also under challenge in the federal courts, with the individual coverage requirements fueling a constitutional battle likely to be decided by the Supreme Court.
The House vote was the first stage of a Republican plan to use the party's momentum coming out of the midterm elections to keep the White House on the defensive, and will be followed by a push to scale back federal spending. In response, the administration struck a more aggressive posture than it had during the campaign to sell the health care law to the public. With many House Democrats from swing districts having lost their seats in November, the remaining Democrats held overwhelmingly together in opposition to the repeal.
On the House floor, the resulting debate was a striking reprise of the one that engulfed Capitol Hill from the spring of 2009 until March 2010, when Mr. Obama signed the health care law.
And while the tone was slightly subdued in the aftermath of the attempted assassination of Representative Gabrielle Giffords in Arizona, the debate showed that the divisions over the law remained as deep as ever.
The three Democrats who crossed the aisle to support the repeal were Representatives Dan Boren of Oklahoma, Mike McIntyre of North Carolina, and Mike Ross of Arkansas, all of whom opposed the law last year.
Ms. Giffords, who had supported the law, remains hospitalized in Arizona and was the only House member who did not vote.
Republicans denounced the law as an intrusion by the government that would prompt employers to eliminate jobs, create an unsustainable entitlement program, saddle states and the federal government with unmanageable costs, and interfere with the doctor-patient relationship. Republicans also said the law would exacerbate the steep rise in the cost of medical services.
"Repeal means paving the way for better solutions that will lower the cost without destroying jobs or bankrupting our government," the House speaker, John A. Boehner of Ohio, said. "Repeal means keeping a promise. This is what we said we would do."
Democrats, eager for a second chance to sell the law, trumpeted the benefits that have already taken effect. These include protections for people who would otherwise be denied insurance coverage based on a pre-existing medical condition, the ability for children to stay on their parents' policy until age 26, and new tax breaks for small businesses that provide health coverage to their workers.
Representative John Lewis, Democrat of Georgia, said, "It is unbelievable that with so many people out of work and millions of people uninsured, the first act of this new Congress is to take health care away from people who just got coverage."
The health care law, which Congress approved last year without a single Republican in favor, seeks to extend insurance to more than 30 million people by expanding Medicaid and providing federal subsidies to help lower and middle-income Americans buy private coverage.
Republican leaders said they had not set any timetable for the four committees drafting alternatives to the law. "I don't know that we need artificial deadlines for the committees to act," Mr. Boehner said. "We expect them to act in an efficient way."
Republicans said their package would probably include proposals to allow sales of health insurance across state lines; to help small businesses band together and buy insurance; to limit damages in medical malpractice suits; and to promote the use of health savings accounts, in combination with high-deductible insurance policies.
Republicans also want to help states expand insurance pools for people with serious illnesses. The new law includes such pools, as an interim step until broader insurance coverage provisions take effect in 2014, but enrollment has fallen short of expectations.
Representative Paul Broun, Republican of Georgia, said that allowing people to buy insurance across state lines would "expand choice and competition." And he said businesses could negotiate better insurance rates if they could join together in "association health plans," sponsored by trade and professional groups.
But state insurance officials have resisted such proposals, on the ground that they would weaken state authority to regulate insurance and to enforce consumer protections -- a concern shared by Congressional Democrats.
Some Republicans seemed sensitive to accusations that repeal would strip away new patient protections and leave millions of Americans without insurance.
Representative Joe Heck, Republican of Nevada and a physician, said he supported some goals of the new law: "making sure people don't lose their coverage once they get sick; letting dependent children stay on their parents' insurance until they turn 26; making sure anyone who wants to buy insurance can purchase a policy, regardless of pre-existing conditions."
Representative Joe L. Barton, Republican of Texas, said, "There are some things in the new law that we think are worth keeping," including a procedure for approval of generic versions of expensive biotechnology drugs.
But Mr. Barton and other Republicans returned to a core objection to the law, which they said extends the reach of government too far.
"We believe that you shouldn't have the federal government mandate that an individual has to have health insurance, whether he or she wants it," Mr. Barton said. "We want to repeal today so that we can begin to replace tomorrow."
Representative Allyson Y. Schwartz, Democrat of Pennsylvania, said she doubted that the Republican alternatives would be effective in expanding coverage or controlling costs.
"Many Republicans want to repeal the law, but are not serious about replacing it," Ms. Schwartz said.

Many great bands have recorded here like:
Solander, Vit Päls, This is head, MF/MB, Dipper, Yast… among many others.
Who sleeps at your feet?
My old friend Rasmus. 12yo weiner dog.
What made you choose that name?
I don't really remember to be honest. I guess I thought it was cute and fitting. It can get complicated though because by now I have friends and clients whos name is Rasmus.
What do you love about him? Any hidden talent? Superpower? Strange routine?
Well, he's my old friend for starters. We are pretty much synced in our routines and I like having him around. Talents? Not really, but he can crawl in under the bed sheets and out again without messing up the bed. That might qualify as talent, superpower and strange routine?
What do you love doing together?
I like walking and he likes sniffing stuff for AGES. You can't walk him if you're in a hurry. He also seems to like watching TV with me.
What makes him your best friend?
To be honest I have human friends that I'd rather consider best friends but he's been around for almost as long as I can remember so maybee… I can't imagine spending my days without him and he puts a smile on my face every day.
Do you want to dedicate Rasmus a song?
"My Buddy" by Chet Baker from the album Chet Baker Sings.

By Kristina Schneider, Executive Assistant
Writing a business letter seems somewhat common knowledge or perhaps common sense to most people; however, it's sometimes shocking to see how many administrative staff members – – even those with a college education – – are completely incapable of writing business letters.
In this article, we will walk you through each step on how to properly write a business letter so that you can quickly and easily write correspondence on behalf of or for your boss without too much editing.
Company Letterhead
The first step to writing business letters is to make sure that you have official company letterhead of some kind. Whether your company has pre-printed letterhead on linen paper or some other header which includes your company's name, return address and phone number, having company letterhead not only makes the correspondence seem much more formal and official, but it's an easy way to ensure that the recipient has easy access to your company's contact information in order to respond.
The date is probably one of the most important items that you could have on your letter. Dates on correspondence are probably one of the most frequently referenced items on a business letter, because it may demonstrate timeliness (or lack thereof) in your correspondence. It may also help keep the timing and chronological order of events for a particular matter. The date is typically centered or indented towards the center of the page, a few lines below the company letterhead (about 1/3 the way down the page).
Recipient's Name & Address
Following the date, you will skip two to three lines and enter in the recipient's name aligned to the left of the page. With business correspondence, you should be more formal and address people as Mr., Ms., Mr. & Mrs., Dr., etc. (Bonus Tip: "Ms." is a good default honorific or title for any female recipient when her marital status is unknown. And, if you don't know the gender of the recipient – – such is the case for gender-neutral names like Lindsey or Tracy – – it's okay just to put their first and last name.) Following the recipient's name, if you're sending it to a business address, you will want to include the company name. And the next line should be the address line. You can appropriately abbreviate both directional and street names (e.g. N., S., Dr., Blvd., St.) or you can be more formal and spell everything out. Just make sure that if you do abbreviate that you use the proper abbreviation. We tend to put apartment, unit and suite numbers on the same line as the street address, following the street address with a comma. The last line will include the city, state and zip code. See below for a few samples.

Malibu, California 90265
Delivery Medium (Optional, but Recommended)
The next feature of the business letters that we write is not necessary or required, but is recommended, and that is to include some kind of line about the delivery medium. The reason why it's a smart idea to do this is because, again, you may need to reference your correspondence and be sure that you were clear and had records for how the correspondence was sent.
Here are some common delivery medium options:
Subject (Optional, but Recommended)
Another important and recommended part of our business letters which is not required or always necessary, but is recommended, is having a subject line (similar to what most people do with e-mail). This subject line will help you (and the recipient) differentiate your letter of correspondence from other letters that you may have sent in the past. Eventually, your letters will look the same and this subject line will help prevent them dismissing your letter, thinking they already received it or that it may not be important. The subject line doesn't have to be super detailed, but if you do have further details that will help identify the purpose of your letter, the better.
Depending on the culture of your company and your relationship with the recipient, you can vary the formality of the greeting to your recipient. A more formal greeting would be to reference the recipient with Mr., Ms., Mr. & Mrs., Dr. and then the last name. If you have a close personal relationship with the recipient, you can address the recipient by first name (e.g. "Dear Philip,") and if you have an even more informal relationship with the client, you can address them by their nickname or shortened version of their name, assuming you're close enough to them to call them by their shortened name (e.g. "Dear Phil,"). If you are unsure if a more informal greeting may offend the recipient, you are better off being more formal than not. And, as a tip for being an assistant or member of the support staff, it may be a good idea to keep all of your correspondence on the more formal side. It also demonstrates a level of respect to the recipient as well and you can never go wrong with a more formal approach in your correspondence. Also, there are times where you may not know the name of your recipient, such as if you were sending in correspondence to the IRS or some other governmental agency. In this case, you can use "Dear Sir or Madam," as your greeting. (This will be greeted with a much more positive response than "To Whom It May Concern"!)
The body of your e-mail should be pretty straightforward. Like your other forms of communication, it should include an introduction as to the purpose of your letter, paragraphs that communicate your message clearly and a concluding paragraph. We typically do not indent our paragraphs (so we can more easily indent sub-items, if necessary) and we have an extra break between paragraphs to separate paragraphs. See below.
Multiple Pages
If you have multiple pages, your second page typically does not contain any company letterhead or logos. However, it is important to keep correspondence with multiple pages in order with some kind of pagination. Our firm utilizes a header at the upper left of the page which not only includes the page number, but the total number of pages, the date of the correspondence and the recipient's name. It's laid out as follows:
Page 2 of 2
November 1, 2013
Mr. Philip J. Kavesh
This way, if this page were ever to get lost (or any other pages, if you had more than 2 pages in your correspondence), it would be very easy to locate and/or identify what the correspondence goes to. Especially in the legal and tax business, you may have a lot of clients with written correspondence and this is just one more way to help you keep yourself much more organized.
Concluding Paragraphs
All letters of correspondence should include some kind of concluding paragraph. In this concluding paragraph, it typically should include an offer for the recipient to contact you (or instructions on whom they may contact) if they have any questions. This should also include any contact information so that they may easily have that accessible if they do wish to respond to that letter by phone and/or e-mail. Here are a couple of standard concluding paragraphs that we use in our letters of correspondence:
Thank you, in advance, for your time and attention to this matter. Should you have any questions regarding the above, please do not hesitate to contact me at (310)324-9403 or by e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Thank you, in advance, for your time and attention to this matter. Should you have any questions regarding the above, please do not hesitate to contact my assistant, Kristina Schneider, at (310)324-9403 or by e-mail at email@example.com.
Signature & Title
Contrary to what we were taught about signature lines in business letters, we actually indent our signature lines about halfway through the page. This is more of a personal preference of Phil's for his letters. However, whether you left align your signature line or indent it towards the center of the page, you should include some kind of salutation. In business correspondence, "Sincerely" is the most common. But, again, depending on your company's culture, the nature of your correspondence and your personal preference, you can also use "Best Regards", "Yours Very Truly", or "Best Wishes". Following the salutation, you should allow 3 line breaks for a signature and then print the sender's name and title.
Here are some samples of what we use:
Kristina K. Schneider
Executive Assistant to Philip J. Kavesh
Yours Very Truly,
Philip J. Kavesh, J.D., LL.M. (Taxation),
California State Bar Certified Specialist in
Estate Planning, Trust & Probate Law
Typist's Initials
If you wrote the entire letter, this part of the letter is not needed. However, it is not uncommon for professionals to dictate and/or have someone else type up correspondence on their behalf. If that is the case, then you should capitalize the sender's initials and then include a forward-slash and your initials in lowercase. For example, if Phil were to dictate a client letter that we were to type up for him, we would left-align "PJK/kks" or "PJK/med" a few lines following his signature line.
Carbon Copy & Blind Carbon Copy
Last, but not least, you may wish to carbon copy (CC) and blind carbon copy (BCC) someone on the correspondence. Much like what most people are aware of with respect to e-mail, carbon copies are individuals that you intend to give a copy of the correspondence and the recipient is aware that you're giving them a copy of the correspondence. A blind carbon copy is someone that you copy on the correspondence and you don't let the recipient know that you copied them on a matter. To CC someone on your correspondence, you would simply skip 2-3 lines below the signature line and left align the notice: "CC: [insert individual's name]". You may be more formal in your correspondence by adding the titles of those you're copying as well. Also, if you have enclosures included with your correspondence, you may not need those that are copied on the correspondence to have a copy of the enclosures so you may add "(w/out enclosures)" after the individual's name. To BCC someone on your correspondence, you may wish to add an additional page to the correspondence that simply lists those that are blind carbon copied (e.g. "BCC: [insert individual's name]"). The recipient will not receive that additional page and that BCC is really for your internal record or internal copy of the correspondence.
It might all seem elementary and, hopefully, all of the above letter-writing tips are ones you're already aware of and using (or will be soon)! It honestly means that you'll be ahead of the game, particularly having seen the kinds of letters produced by other administrative and executive assistants over the years. For those interested, we are pleased to share a letter template that we created for ourselves to help us in putting together correspondence quickly and easily.
As a reminder, it's not "our way or the highway" either. We know that some of the above guidelines are also personal letter-writing preferences that we have (as well as our boss). So, if you have (or your boss has) another way of putting together correspondence that works and is professional, then don't fix what's not broken!

Window Testing:
Water penetration testing of glazing assemblies or walls assists in determining specific leakage paths and provides insight into the potential cause of an envelope failure. Our testing equipment and procedures are in strict compliance with testing standard requirements for various assemblies.
Infrared Thermographic Testing:
Infrared imaging is an exceptional tool for determining the sources of building envelope problems. The process provides an image which helps to determine heat loss, moisture in assemblies, material absence, and material defects. Our staff includes certified and professionally trained thermographers with extensive experience in collecting appropriate data and interpreting findings.
Second Opinions:
Second opinion assessments are often required to confirm previous findings or to provide support for litigation. Our opinions can verify or substantially deviate from opinions previously encountered. Second opinions are often obtained in order to consider possible economically beneficial avenues for envelope repairs.
Budget Expectations:
This is the development of cost estimates for various material and construction options. Generally several options are presented to clients depending on their requirements. Items that are taken into account during the preparation of budgets often include:
- Construction costs, including an appropriate deterioration contingency fund
- Contingency allowance for code deficient issues
- Consultant Fees
- Legal Fees
- Applicable Taxes
- Permits
- Third party warranty costs
Repair Recommendations:
Based on the findings of the condition assessment, we provide various options for repair taking into account energy consumption, maintenance, aesthetics, cost, and other affected categories. Recommendations often reflect current available technology, anticipated service life of components, and the cost effectiveness of proposed solutions.
