What is the Internet of Things?
The Internet of Things, or IoT, refers to billions of physical devices around the world that are now connected to the internet, collecting and sharing data. Thanks to cheap processors and wireless networks, it's possible to turn anything, from a pill to an aeroplane, into part of the IoT. This adds a level of digital intelligence to devices that would be otherwise dumb, enabling them to communicate without a human being involved, and merging the digital and physical worlds.
Pretty much any physical object can be transformed into an IoT device if it can be connected to the internet and controlled that way. A lightbulb that can be switched on using a smartphone app is an IoT device, as is a motion sensor or a smart thermostat in your office or a connected streetlight.

The following is a guest post by:
Melanie Salinas –www.MommyMentionables.com
She is a full-time mother of now, 2 little girls. When she is not spending her time blogging, she is having fun with her kids, doing crafts and projects at home. She has one crazy busy life, but she would not have it any other way.
I'm 38 weeks this week and now that the baby is about the size of a Watermelon – AHH! I think it's about time to start packing the hospital bags. I've been so busy lately that, it's just now setting in that I will have another tiny baby in my arms in the next week or so. My doctor said there's a possibility she may come before her due date so time is of the essence.
My first go around, I had no idea what I needed to pack. I found myself scouring the baby forums trying to figure out what I really needed. So of course, to be safe, I packed practically everything. I would definitely say I over-packed last time as I did not even use half the stuff I took with me. Surprisingly the hospital I delivered at provided pretty much everything the baby needed. So I put together a list of hospital bag MUST HAVE'S for mom & baby to share with all the new moms out there.
So here is my list for the top 10 items you cannot forget to pack.
1. SOCKS with some grip – The hospital is a cold cold place, and although the hospital may provide you with some complimentary socks, they may not be the ones you need to keep your feet warm. I suggest some with grip because when walking on the cold hospital floor, the thin socks just won't cut it.
2. Slippers – I love my house slippers. You want to make sure you feel comfortable, you will be there for a minimum of at least 2 day or longer. So take your favorite pair of house slippers.
3. Toiletries – Don't forget your toothbrush, and if you're like me where your skin may only like a specific type of soap or face wash, bring your own if you don't want to settle and use the hospital brands. Make sure to also pack your hair ties, headbands, combs, brushes, deodorant and makeup if you plan on taking some pictures.
4. Change – Seems like the simplest thing, but if you're like me, I use debit cards for everything. You will be needing some change after hours, when the cafeteria closes and you need a snack from the snack machine. Make sure to take a few dollars in change.
5. The Boppy – I could not have done without " target="_blank">Aden & Anais swaddlers. We will definitely be bringing a few of these with us.
7. Go home outfit for baby – Take a few outfits just in case baby is bigger or smaller than expected. When little one was delivered she was only 6lbs, but from our last ultrasound they thought she was going to be well over 7. She actually fit into a premie outfit, although she was full-term. So take a few of your favorite baby outfits. I recommend something comfortable. No fufu outfits. Keep in mind that baby will have just had the umbilical cord cut and will be sore. You will need a onsie of some sort, no pants or shorts because that will just irritate the area.
8. Phones & chargers – You probably won't forget your phone, but what you may end of forgetting is the charger. Also, make sure you have all of your relatives and friends phone numbers stored for quick access when you want to make the birth announcement. I am bad at this. Last time not everyone got notified right away. I still have relatives phone numbers written down in different places that I never put into my phone.
9. Extra Pillows – Sure the hospital will have pillows for you but they won't be YOUR pillows. I am a picky sleeper and need several pillows to get comfortable at night. Don't forget to take a few extra that you're used to sleeping on. After the baby's born, you will need to try to get as much good sleep as possible.
10. Go home outfit for mom – Yoga pants to go with it.
Those are my top 10. Do you have your own MUST HAVE'S that I didn't mention?
If so, please share!

New Bethel Hosts Annual Breast Cancer Luncheon-The Orlando Times

ALTAMONTE SPRINGS - As part of a historic Black section of Altamonte Springs which featured the original Rosenwald School for Black Children and the historic Marker Street, where many of Altamontes Black residents interact and intersect, the street and section is home to New Bethel AME Church.
New Bethel stands on the northwest end of Marker Street, and has been a haven for worshippers since the present sanctuary was rebuilt by then pastor, Rev. Eugene Orr, in 1966. The road was originally named Market street in honor of the businesses that surrounded the area.
The John Bridges Community Center has been a part of South Apopkas history since 1987. The Center hosts HeadStart programs, community action talks and the annual Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. parade, also co-hosted by the South Apopka Ministerial Alliance.
These two histories, from Altamonte Springs and Apopka, will meet on Saturday, Oct.21, for the Annual, Faithful Fays Breast Cancer Survivor Luncheon, hosted by New Bethel AME Church and facilitated at the John H. Bridges Community Center.
2017 marks the sixth year that the church from Marker Street will host the event, which has honored the story of member Fay Cohen, for the last two years.
Fays been a member of our church for a long time. The church provides assistance for her as an active member and our Missionary Society takes an active role in this endeavor as well. said Rev. Arnold Porter, pastor of New Bethel AME.
Porter said the church assists, but Fay and her daughter Shayla work in gathering all of the speakers and the educational resources for the event.
Hes served as the ministrys pastor since 2012, and in that time, has worked to increase membership of the Christian Education Committee, adopt a more youth oriented outreach for the ministry and convene annually with the aforementioned survivor luncheon.
Pastor Porter was first ordained a Deacon in the African Methodist Episcopal Church in September 1997 by Bishop Frank Curtis Cummings and an Itinerant Elder in October 2000 by Bishop John Hurst Adams. He is currently the Dean of Institute for ministerial studies of the Orlando District and a member of the Central Conference Board of Examiners.
Porter also serves as Hospital Chaplain for Orlando Health Systems.
Cohens daughter, Shayla, is a principal organizer of the event. We started with this activity in 2011, originally in the churchs annex. She said.
For two years, weve hosted at John Bridges and the turnout has been amazing. People are educated and survivors give hope to women that may have received their diagnosis.
Her mother, Fay, hopes the event will offer hope to survivors that a diagnosis is not a death sentence. Just as it happened to me, it can happen to any other woman. Cohen said. We have to keep living. The luncheon is to encourage these women that its not over until God says its over.
Cohen is an eight year Breast Cancer survivor. She recalls the very moment she heard the words, you have breast cancer. I was initially discouraged, but I kept going to treatments, kept fighting, kept praying. I didnt forget where my help comes from. She said.
During her diagnosis, she continued to worship at New Bethel, where she has been an active member for fifty-two years.
Her parents before her were also members of the church for decades.
Today, cancer free, Cohen still serves as part of the Missionary Society, Christian Education Committee and as a mother in the church, which offers mentorship and advice to younger women.
She hasnt slowed down Sheryl Blaine, assistant secretary to the Mass Choir said. Fay is positive, cheerful and places joy into your life. She convinces you that you can do anything.
Blaine has been an active member of New Bethel for twenty-one years. She migrated from Denver, Colorado, prior. Her husbands grandfather was a founder of New Bethel and one of the churchs early pastors.
This years luncheon will feature a fashion show, comedy by Ken Miller and keynote speaker Lisa Hornton. There will also be three mini-speakers, one of which is Margaret Gispon, who is a fifteen year survivor, and keynote speaker from the first annual event.
The luncheon will be hosted between 11:00am to 2:00pm on Saturday, October 21, 2017. Tickets can be purchased by contacting either Fay Cohen or Sheryl Blaine. Same day tickets are $20.00 at the door.
Those that are unable to attend the luncheon can still make donations. All donations are tax deductible.

Even the most energy conscious among us often run into one major obstacle: we need computers. And smart phones. And TVs. We just can't seem to stay away from our energy-sucking electronics. But what if we could tweak microprocessor chips so that they use one million times less energy than today's computers? It would be a world of nearly guilt-free electronic use–energy-wise, at least. What you do on your computer is your own business.
Today's microprocessors are powered by electric currents, which generate a lot of waste heat. Researchers at the University of California, Berkeley have discovered that microprocessors using tiny magnets (pictured below) for logic, memory, and switching operations would dissipate just 18 millielectron volts of energy per operation at room
temperature. That's a very small amount of electricity. In fact, it's the smallest amount of electricity possible to transmit information–a number known as the Landauer limit.
"In principle, one could, I think, build real circuits that would
operate right at the Landauer limit," said Jeffrey Bokor, a UC Berkeley professor of electrical engineering, in a statement. "Even if we could get within
one order of magnitude, a factor of 10, of the Landauer limit, it would
represent a huge reduction in energy consumption for electronics. It
would be absolutely revolutionary."
There are still obstacles to overcome before magnetic microprocessors can be used en masse. One major problem: they still lag in reliability, speed, and performance compared to today's microprocessors. And in a world that expects fast and reliable electronics, that won't sit well. But as computers become ever-more prevalent over the coming decades–and energy consumption grows–we can use all the help we can get.

There should have been CGI gophers.
Those cute, digitally-generated creatures that provided a furry audience for the first of several unnecessary openers to the fourth "Indiana Jones" flick sadly didn't appear in Brendan Fraser's third "Mummy" effort, "The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor."
Nor did anyone escape a nuclear explosion within a lead-lined refrigerator.
But they should have.
They would have fit in perfectly, because this CGI-mad flick could have been a brilliant, over-the-top spoof of everything "Indiana Jones."
Instead, Rob Cohen and company got cold feet halfway to shooting the moon.
The Indy reference wasn't obvious, but it was there. There was a diamond that pointed the way to Shangri-la reminiscent of the mechanism that pointed Indy to the Ark of the Covenant in "Raiders of the Lost Ark." Fraser's Rick O'Connell developed a mysterious affection for the fedora. And the temple where his son dug up the Dragon Emperor's terra cotta army came complete with all the death traps strangely absent from El Dorado in "Kindgom of the Crystal Skull."
The primary difference between O'Connell and Indiana Jones as characters is that Indy is actually a hero in the mythological sense. He confronts his internal demons. He faces his father. He rejects the call of absolute power.
O'Connell is just a normal guy stuck doing the hero shtick. Adventurer, yes. Hero, no.
And that works to a point.
The problem with this latest "Mummy" installment is that it seems to have forgotten effective parodies require nods and winks to the original material. It can't be so subtle that almost everyone who watches the movie misses it.
Fraser, Maria Bello et. al. should have been overacting their parts, much as the cast did in the first installment. In that film, Fraser was a gun-toting convict who barely escaped a hanging and Rachel Weisz (Bello's predecessor as Evie O'Connell) was a goody-good librarian who clumsily sent an entire room full of bookcases into a domino-like chain reaction of collapses.
If Indiana Jones would have raced back to retrieve his hat from under a closing wall, Fraser should have raced back to retrieve his hat while heaven and earth moved in a futile attempt to stop him and Bello yelled at him for risking his life for a stupid piece of clothing.
Instead, all the film includes is the hat, and then only for a few short seconds.
What summed up the film to me was the scene in which Brendan Fraser, who has been stabbed through the gut somewhere high in the Himalayas, is carried on a gurney by two CGI Yetis up to Shangri-la. Everyone else follows along in procession.
No one — not even the comic relief — makes a comment about how ridiculous it all is.
In other words, the filmmakers badly needed to nuke the fridge, but all they managed were a couple of fake-looking, helpful abominable snowmen.
I would have preferred the gophers.

That is what we have when we raise children.
Days that seem so long and difficult are really just moments that are gone with the blink of our eyes.
You feel like you are going to be in the thick of it forever, but actually it ends too soon.
You wake up and the kids are grown up.
What of traditions? What will your children relish and remember most of those days?
Will it be the clean house? The new car? The organized closets?
They will cherish and carry with them the traditions.
It will be the birthday meals and the games played outside in the summer.
It will be the blueberry picking and the lightening bug catching.
It will be the Harry Potter movie marathons with popcorn and smoked gouda and frosty punch.
It will be the swim days and the times the baby belly laughed while getting lotion on after his bath.
It will all the times crafts were done together at the kitchen table. It will be the chores done side by side as a family.
It's the family cookouts and days spent visiting.
Traditions are not elaborate schemes carefully put together. It is the small and repetitive occurrences that make your family a family.
It's the chance to snuggle the youngest sibling while he sleeps.
It's those fleeting moments.
Hang on to those. Hold on real tight. It's those moments you will carry with you always.
Happy Wednesday Ya'll.

We admit, with only Reverend Justito hitting Coachella from our tribe this weekend we will be missing the Kaiser Chiefs. Can you blame him, they are playing at the same time at The Buzzcocks and he has yet discovered how to be in multiple places at the same time. So to apologize for our lack of Kaiser Chiefs Coachella coverage, we will share with you their performance on Late Night with David Letterman from the night of April 11th 2012. Well, we will share it till CBS has it kicked off YouTube for copyright violation. Oh and is Dave drunk here? Sure sounds like it. I will shut up now, enjoy Kaiser Chiefs rocking "On The Run."

Scofflaw. It means what you might think: a person who scoffs at, or flouts, a law (particularly a law that's hard to enforce). Starting New Year's Day, 2012, a new California law offers amnesty to all those scofflaws with unpaid traffic tickets dated before January 1, 2009. SB 857 will open a six-month window in which the state will forgive 50% of the scofflaw's debt, as long as he or she pays the other half.

I've been at university for about six weeks now and it's already feeling like a second home. My course is great and my flatmates are lovely. It's funny how quickly you can become close friends with somebody when you live with them.
We talk about everything – from the Scottish independence vote to how many pairs of socks we brought with us (not enough!); from what we bought at Aldi this week to if there really is a god; from who's caught our eye in our lectures to what songs we used to sing in primary school… anything goes.
Apart from one thing.
Mental health. And it's not just at uni that this is a problem. I've noticed it everywhere. At school, at church, with my friends, and with my family. Why is it that mental health has become such a taboo?
'I think I'm coming down with a cold' or 'I've got such a headache' – we don't seem to have a problem with talking about our physical health. But when it comes to the wellbeing of our minds we decide to keep our mouths shut and deal with it alone. We open a new tab online and Google 'I'm feeling really down' and try to make sense of it through cyber doctors and medical forums. Then someone knocks on our bedroom door and we quickly exit the window, making a mental note to delete our internet history later – as if it's something to be ashamed of.
Someone very close to me back home is going through a difficult time and has just been prescribed anti-depressants. As I sit here in my uni room, 100 miles away from my home town, I feel helpless. I'm worried about them and I wish I could keep them here with me, to look out for and to love. But I'm here, and they're there.
I felt I couldn't tell my flatmates about my concern. People don't talk about that kind of thing. I thought they'd think I was paranoid or overprotective and wouldn't understand.
But one day I mustered up the courage to express what I'm feeling – that I'm worried about someone back home. And they didn't mock, they didn't laugh, or tell me to get over it. They understood – because they're going through the same thing.
Each one of us sat at that table had a mum, friend, brother or boyfriend back home who had a mental health issue. Naturally, we were all worried about them, but we'd kept it to ourselves.
This is half the problem, we're too scared to talk about these issues so they never get dealt with. They're left to build up until we feel we might explode with emotions, words and tears. Maybe if we weren't so reluctant to talk about it, people could be more open about how they're feeling. They can be supported sooner, and receive help if they need it.
So if you're worried about your own mental health, or that of someone close to you, don't be afraid to talk about it. Find a friend, someone you trust, a mentor, a family member and talk. The likelihood is that they'll have gone through something similar.
Maybe we can also be more careful with the way we use our words. We throw around phrases like 'Kill me now' and 'FML' as if they mean nothing when really we're underestimating the precious value of our lives. We don't know what those around us have been through and these words might spark painful memories.
Let's show a little more respect and a lot more understanding – and let's talk about mental health.

vag-ar-y [noun]
(a whimsical, wandering journey; an unpredictable instance and existence)
Hi Guys, and welcome to ToV!
A little bit about me – I'm 26 and living in London, with restless feet, a love for photography, and a bucket list that is never-ending. Born and raised in India, I left home at 15 to live / study / work in Singapore, Boston, Jordan, and New York, eventually flying across the pond to London. Needless to say, I love exploring new places and find it incredibly difficult to stay put!
I've created this platform as a way to share my travels, bring together like-minded travelers, inspire, and be inspired, to make everyday a little (or a lot) more adventurous.
I'm always planning the next trip, so stay tuned for travel ideas / food recommendations / trip details / and quite literally everything in between.
Happy Exploring!
Love A x

With the Mets first Spring Training game officially underway it is now time to see the Mets top 5 questions for Spring Training. While the Mets look improved, they still have plenty of issues for Terry Collins and company to work out.
1. Who plays first base?
Obviously the Mets expected this issue to be solved before Spring Training started. They were deep in talks to deal Ike Davis elsewhere to the point where even he was surprised that he was in Port St. Lucie. He probably has the advantage over Lucas Duda to this point but the first base job is still pretty much wide open. Josh Satin should play every day against lefties anyway at first base. Barring a trade, both players should still be on the Opening Day roster.
- What does the outfield look like?
It appears that all four of Curtis Granderson, Juan Lagares, Chris Young and Eric Young Jr. will play a lot this season. The Mets don't really have another outfielder that is currently pictured to make the Opening Day roster. I believe Juan Lagares deserves to play every day which would free Young Jr. to be a pinch running weapon off the bench, kind of like what the Reds did with Billy Hamilton last September. This outfield has the potential to be very special. "Runners are going to be very hesitant to take the extra base on us." Eric Young Jr. told Kevin Burkhardt during the SNY Mets telecast Friday. While Granderson and Chris Young are expected to play every day, Young Jr. and Lagares will compete for a starting job in Spring Training. If Eric Young Jr. wins a starting job, then he would play left and Chris Young would move to center.
- Who is the Mets 5th starter?
If Jenrry Mejia is healthy he should be the Mets 5th starter. He has #2 starter upside but with his violent delivery and injury history, there is no reason to think that he can make it through a full season healthy. Dice-K and John Lannan will also compete for the job and the best performance in camp should win the 5th starters job. It is possible that one of these veteran guys end up as a long man in the Mets pen.
- How does the bullpen shape up?
Pretty much everyone in this bullpen is coming to camp with major questions. Bobby Parnell is coming off a major injury, Vic Black, who is expected to be the Mets set-up man, has less than 20 big league innings under his belt. The Mets didn't bring in anyone on a major league deal to add to the bullpen and winded up losing LaTroy Hawkins. The Mets hope is that Jose Valverde and Kyle Farnsworth can regain some lost velocity and they can be the bridge to Parnell. Young guys like Jeurys Familia, Josh Edgin and Gonzalez Germen will be crucial for this questionable Mets bullpen.
- What do the Mets do at shortstop?
This is the one question that Terry Collins likely doesn't have control of. Reports of Ruben Tejada still being overweight have continued to pop up throughout camp. Wilmer Flores has lost so much weight that he is now being considered for shortstop reps in spring training. Stephen Drew is still on the market somehow which should continue with no true suitor emerging. His agent Scott Boras speculates that Drew could wait until after the Drew draft so he wouldn't be tied down to draft pick compensation. Nick Franklin has also come up in Mets trade rumors but the team is unlikely at this point to trade one of their top pitching prospects when they are unsure if he could handle shortstop on an everyday basis defensively.
Which Mets question are you most concerned about?

Only code at work? That doesn't make you a worse programmer
At the end of the day you're done with work, you go home—and you don't spend any of your free time coding. And that's fine, you have other things going on in your life. But your coworker does spend another 20 hours a week coding, and all that practice means they'll end up better programmers than you, and so they'll get promoted faster, and they'll get paid more. And that's not fine.
It's also not true.
That inadequacy you're feeling is based on false assumptions, a misunderstanding of the skills it takes to be a good programmer. Enthusiasts who love coding as a hobby are valuable, yes, but so are you: even if extra hours of coding result in better skills—often a very doubtful assumption—their approach is not inherently better.
All but the smallest of programming projects are team efforts, requiring a variety of skills, knowledge, and mindsets. The mindset of someone who view programming as a tool to do their jobs—let's call them pragmatists—is just as useful as the mindset of enthusiasts.
To understand why, let's go through the lifecycle of the enthusiast programmer, see how their skills evolve, and compare them to the pragmatists' approach. As you'll see, enthusiasts and pragmatists start out with different strengths, and software teams can benefit from both.
The enthusiast's path
The enthusiast's starting point is a love of programming: they love to code. They take joy in writing software, and understanding the intricacies of the technologies they use.
Over time, as they become more skilled and experienced, they expand their point of view. Instead of just wanting to write code, they want to write good code, high-quality code: they want to be proud of their work. So now they focus not just on the joy of coding, but also on less enjoyable but important disciplines like testing.
If they continue to grow in skill and experience, they will eventually hit a point where they see code as a tool: a means to an end. Software is still fun, yes, but it also needs to be written to achieve certain goals. At this point quality becomes less of an obvious objective criteria: every situation is different, and what works in one situation doesn't work in another.
Strengths and weaknesses: Enthusiasts often have a strong grasp of the tools and technologies they use. On the other hand, they are sometimes prone to holy wars and zealotry (they feel it's important to choose the very best tool), and until they finally realize software is a means, not an end, they have a harder time working towards goals that aren't about writing software.
The pragmatist's path
The enthusiast's weaknesses are the pragmatist's strength. Pragmatists start out seeing software as a means to end: they will tell you "I like writing software, but mostly I care about what the software lets me do." So what can take the enthusiast years to learn—a focus on goals—comes naturally to the pragmatist.
Of course, if they're not deliberately focusing on learning, pragmatist can sometimes suffer from less understanding of tools and techniques. This can be mitigated by learning on the job, and making sure to build awareness of available technologies.
Software is not a competition
With time and practice, the strengths of enthusiasts and pragmatists can converge. Even so, different people will typically end up with different skillsets, different approaches, and different ways of building software.
This is how it should be. Software projects are too big to be built by one person, too complex to be encompassed by one view point.
When you compare yourself to your peers, you shouldn't ignore your weakness, but you should also value your own strengths. You can and should learn from your colleagues, but chances are there's something you can teach them.

Today, the BBC is ending the so-called 'iPlayer loophole', which an estimated 500,000 viewers have enjoyed to-date. From now on, people will be expected to pay for a TV licence, even if they only consume content via iPlayer.
All over the internet, stories of detection vans that would give James Bond a run for his money are causing people to break into a heated frenzy of Orwellian narratives about the Beeb invading our privacy. Not to mention the unpleasantly termed WiFi 'packet sniffing' technology.
Most of this, it seems, is over-exaggerated, especially when some experts suggest that it would be very difficult to tell the difference between a user furtively watching an episode of Eastenders under their duvet and those using similar services from commercial players. Currently, it's unclear how the BBC plans to police this, but let's get onto the meat of the matter – is it ok to charge people who only use the BBC's catch-up service online a full fat licence fee?
In my view: philosophically 'no', but practically speaking 'yes'.
In a world where IP-linked services like Netflix and Amazon Prime can connect individual users to a tailored subscription model, it seems incongruous for the BBC to charge a blanket £145.50 to users who only use an online content platform. These users, assuming they genuinely do only use iPlayer, will be getting far worse value for money than everyone else; when compared to the other on demand services, the licence fee is very uncompetitive.
However, without shifting its funding model and then redefining some of the very precepts of the BBC, it doesn't really have a choice. The reality is that legislation is always late to the party when it comes to technology, so it seems fair that after a long window of free content (which would not exist without the licence fee), the small number of people only using iPlayer should be asked to contribute.
Of course, some people are angry about this, and this sentiment is understandable. Nevertheless, those up in arms can't realistically hope to indefinitely be excluded from a marketplace that is founded on the fundamental equation of money in, content and distribution out.
In an environment where people expect to access content as widely and quickly as possible, it's too simplistic for anyone to assume that the licence fee is only linked to the specific platform they consume their content from. Therefore, to feel aggrieved just because they don't use a box in the corner of their sitting room to watch the latest episode of Great British Bake Off is to undervalue the wide scope of the BBC's varied content and multi-platform offering.
This move is particularly interesting when we start to think about just how much the digital economy is changing the viewing landscape. Increasingly, people are moving to customised packages and on-demand subscription models, and levels of non-linear, online and mobile consumption continue to grow. It's possible that slightly further down the line, the BBC will need to do something more profound to recognise that the expectations of the viewing public are segmenting.
Perhaps in the future a 'one-size-fits-all' approach to the licence fee may not be sustainable but, until that point, this latest move seems reasonable if the BBC is to do all it can to continue to fund high quality content.

(Reuters) - U.S. drug contract manufacturer Catalent Inc (CTLT.N) said on Tuesday it will buy Juniper Pharmaceuticals Inc JNP.O for $11.50 per share in cash.
The offer price represents a premium of about 32 percent to Juniper Pharmaceuticals' closing price of $8.70 on Monday and values the company at about $127.7 million, according to Thomson Reuters calculations.
Catalent has a market value of about $5.58 billion, according to Thomson Reuters data.
Juniper Pharmaceuticals shares are up more than 22 percent since January, when the company said it was exploring strategic alternatives.
The deal includes Juniper Pharmaceuticals' U.K. business, Juniper Pharma Services, and is expected to close in the first quarter of 2019, Catalent said in a statement.
Catalent said it would continue to support Juniper's Crinone franchise, a progesterone gel which is its single largest revenue source and marketed by Merck KGaA (MRCG.DE) outside of the United States.
Juniper Pharmaceuticals separately said its board had unanimously approved the deal which represents a total equity value of about $139.6 million on a fully-diluted basis.

BPL commentary
For Shata-taraka births of a masculine valence, the disposition of mesmerizing, hypnotic, shadowy, exciting, passionate, ambitious, opportunistic, privilege-seeking Professor Rahu may considerably affect the outcome.
For those born into the Rahu-ruled paradigm of Sadabija, exotics, ethnic mixers, opportunists, fascinators, mesmerizers, privilege-seekers, impostors, rogues, intensifiers of passion and desire, self-proclaimers, self-promoters, agents-provocateur, charlatans, masters of smoke and oils, and entrancingly ambitious persons may be especially influential.
Instructional guidance provided by emissaries from the civilizations of Sadachbia* Tabernacles. Their purpose is mixing of systems.
Mixed-Order Systems
Rahu-ruled fellows who are born into Sata are often found in fascinating roles that boost mass consciousness. Sata births are somewhat rare. Sadachbia work with large regulated systems such as mathematics, scientific theories, and sacred cosmology ++ with formalized psychic sciences such as hypnosis.
Sadabija gentlemen may display principled methods of inquiry, and they may hold dignified social positions, but their personal lifestyles are often unorthodox. Their work often overturns an outdated social paradigm of scientific theory or religious belief.
Themes of over-reaching, charlatanry, entrancement, expedient linkage, hypnotic appearance, and connections between contradictory systems may contextualize Sata's terrestrial experience. Applies also to Chandra in Shata-taraka
QUOTATION from: Shil-Ponde.(1939). Hindu Astrology Joytisha-Shastra. p 88.
"a quiet and unassuming person,

Lives in the mental world rather than in the physical.
Prefers solitude to the company of others.

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Visit Gulf County for IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine.
My husband and I both love going to warm locations for our vacations. We enjoy the beach and being outside. The last 6 years we have gone to the NJ shore in the summer since my parents rented a house for a week. However, I'd like to go someplace warm and sunny during the fall or winter. A nice getaway from the cold weather here in Pennsylvania.
Making new vacation traditions
I really like the idea of having a tradition when it comes to vacations – someplace you visit as often as possible and spend time with one another alone, or with family. Today I am going to share 3 fun adventures I think would become traditions if we made Gulf County Florida (GCFL) our traditional vacation destination.
Horseback riding on the beach
This would combine two things my husband and I love: the beach and horseback riding! It seems like such a fun way to relax and take in the views. Imagine going at sunset and how beautiful the sky would be over the water. A package for couples would be perfect for us.
Camping on the beach
Speaking of the beach at night, GCFL beaches allow campfires and tent camping. I'm not a huge fan of camping, but this looks amazing, doesn't it? Seems so romantic, and an adventure my husband and I would never forget.
Kayaking through the Dead Lakes
I'd love to get a local guide to take us on an tour through the winding habitat of the Dead Lakes. Mossy cypress trees and stumps of trees forgotten cover the lakes making it feel like a different world. There is also a park with fishing, hiking and more.
Get more information about GCFL
Do these ideas sound good to you? Want to build your own traditions in Gulf County? Check out the Gulf County Adventure Guide for ideas, stories, insider tips, and connections.
You can also follow the hashtag #gcflnofilter on Instagram and Twitter to see more fun adventures from visitors just like you. And make sure to enter the Gulf Coast Florida Weekly Contest where 10 winners each week win a $50 gift card! Hurry, the giveaway only runs through October 25th, 2015.
What adventures would you like to do in Gulf County Florida?

So ye be wantin' to read about the biggest movie of all time to feature a buccaneer in mascara. Then ye be talking about Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest.
"Arrr," Davy added, "Why would ye want to be searchin' fer a dead man's chest when Keira Knightly's be close at hand?"
What would you expect from a swab with a lobster claw for a hand. "When I run ye through, yer last thought be o' vat o' melted butter."
"Avast, matey, where's the scurvy eye shadow at?" said Johnny Depp. "'Tis a wee known fact that Pirates on th' high seas generally resembled a high Jerry Hall at Studio 54 in 1978."
"Help!" yelled Keira Knightly, "I'm in terrible danger, I'm terminally pouty, and worst of all, I'm getting more tan as the movie goes on."
"A bonny lass," said Depp.
"Did you say she has a bony ass?" asked Orlando Bloom.
"No, but if ye doubloon fits."
Captain Depp rules his crew with an iron fist. "Swab yer teeth, ye…swabs! I haven't seen ye dental hygiene so deplorable since Ye Bridget Jones's Diary."
As our adventure begins, Orlando Bloom is in shackles and condemned to death. But unlike the dream I have every night, it's only a temporary scrape.
Said Johnny, "Woe unto ye scurvy heartys who questions which damsel be prettier, th' Knightly one or th' one whose first name be th' homeport o' Disney World, savvy?"
"Who are you referring to?" asked Orlando, whose stockings were bunching around his dainty heels and big buckle shoes.
"If my puffy sleeves and dandyish physique fail to intimidate you, then – like many men before you – you will meet my sword!" Orlando warned.
"I know men who've met your sword and they're unimpressed by its girth and foppish swagger," said Captain Depp.
"Kneel before my girlish gams, dog!" replied Orlando in a hissy-fit.
"Not until you hoist them breeches up past yer wee buccaneer to yer treasure trail, wench!" spat Depp.
Stellan Skarsgård has a starfish embedded in his head. Has this always been there, because it's the first time I've noticed it?
Amongst the surly natives Johnny Depp is worshipped like a God – "Ooga ooga ooga ooga" – which translates roughly to: "On the red carpet with Johnny Depp, I'm Joan and Melissa Rivers. Who are you wearing? And who are you eating?"
"Is it true we're seeking a man's chest?" asked Orlando.
"A dead man's chest," said Depp.
"Any port in a storm," replied Orlando.
Beware the mysterious Haitian fortune-teller with her mystifying speech impediment: "I know you're 'tinking t'at I cannot pronounce t'e letters 'T' and 'H' toget'er in one word….and about t'at you'd be right!"
"You will set sail to 'de ends of t'e Eart' and beyond!" she warned.
"But how do you go beyond the ends of the Earth – isn't that why they call it the ends?" asked Orlando.
"I'm speakin' metaphorically ye literal-minded twit," she said. "Come kiss me on the lips, blackened wit' t'e dark souls of a 'tousand shooting days wit' Colin Farrell on Miami Vice."
Arrr, yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum, a pirate's life for me. 'Tis a rollickin' good time at the cinema for parrots and peg-leg brutes, all.

Thirumalai Nayak Palace
Thirumalai Nayak Palace
, or the
Thirumalai Nayakkar Mahal
, is one of the major
tourist attractions of Tamilnadu
. This palace was built by the 17th century ruler of Maduri,
Thirumalai Nayak
. In fact the Thirumalai Nayak Palace was the living place of the Nayak Kings of Tamilnadu. The construction of the Thirumalai Nayak Palace was supervised by an Italian architect; and as a result the Thirumalai Nayak Palace exhibits an excellent combination of the Dravidian, the European as well as the Islamic schools of architecture.
Statue of Thirumalai Nayak
Unfortunately, most of the original
Thirumalai Nayak Palace
has been ruined or destroyed by now. What is there today as the Thirumalai Nayak Palace is only a mere quarter of the original Thirumalai Nayak Palace. Today's Thirumalai Nayak Palace is that part of the original Thirumalai Nayak Palace where the
Nayak Kings of Tamilnadu
used to live. The original Thirumalai Nayak Palace was actually one of the wonders of South India in its time. In the independent India, the
Thiruamalai Nayakkar Mahal
Location of Thirumalai Nayak Palace
The Thirumalai Nayak Palace is located more or less 2 kilometres south east of the world famous
Meenakshi Amman Temple
of Madurai. The
Thirumalai Nayak Palace
is a major landmark of the city and the tourists will have no inconvenience in reaching the Thirumalai Nayak Palace.
Auditorium, Thirumalai Nayak Palace
History of Thirumalai Nayakkar Mahal
Nayak Kings of Tamilnadu
ruler over Madurai from 1545 to 1740.
Thirumalai Nayak
(1623-1659) was undoubtedly one of the greatest Nayak Kings of Tamilnadu. Thiruamalai Nayak constructed not only the
Thirumalai Nayakkar Mahal
or the
Thrirumalai Nayak Palace
but also many more buildings around the city of Madurai. Thirumalai Nayak was a Hindu ruler but in those days the masons were mostly Muslims. Also, Madurai in the 17th century was a leading trade centre and a rendezvous spot of Indian and European merchants, missionaries, travellers and citizens. Since Thirumalai Nayak, the greatest of the Nayak Kings of Tamilnadu, employed an Italian architect to design the Thiruamalai Nayak Palace, the Thirumalai Nayakkar Mahal exhibits a beautiful blend of the Dravidian architecture, the Indo-Saracenic architecture as well as the European architecture.
Design of Thirumalai Nayak Palace
Madurai was the capital of the
Nayaka Kings of Tamilnadu
, and so of
Thirumalai Nayak
as well. He wanted his palace, the
Thirumalai Nayakkar Mahal
, to be a major landmark of his capital city Madurai as well as one of the most exquisite palaces of the whole of South India. The
Thiruamalai Nayak Palace
has a grand architectural style and design. The Thiruamalai Nayak Palace was constructed in 1636, and is an exclusive blend of the Indian, the Islamic and the Europeans schools. The interior design of the Thirumalai Nayak Palace outwits almost all of its contemporaries in terms of detailing and style. Nevertheless, the exterior part of the Thiruamalai Nayak Palace is more simple in comparison to the interior of the Thirumalai Nayakkar Mahal.
Architectural Excellence in the Court
Courtyard of Thiruamalai Nayakkar Mahal
The courtyard of the
Thiruamalai Nayakkar Mahal
is a pleasant place. After crossing through the gates of the
Thirumalai Nayak Palace
, the verdurous panorama of the courtyard of the Thiruamalai Nayak Palace mesmerizes the visitors to the Thirumalai Nayak Palace. The central courtyard of the Thirumalai Nayak Palace measures about 41,979 sq. feet, which, indeed is a vast piece of greenery. The central courtyard of the Thiruamalai Nayakkar Mahal is a circular garden. The central courtyard of the Thiruamalai Nayakkar Mahal is surrounded by colossal pillars which are very majestic at the same time.
Interior of Thiruamalai Nayak Palace
The original
Thirumalai Nayak Palace
was bifurcated into two sections -
Swarga Vilasam
or the Divine Abode and the
Ranga Vilasam
or the Mundane Abode. The Swarga Vilasam consisted of the royal residence, the court, the shrine the armory, and the royal bandstand. Other things like the theatre, the apartments, the quarters, the garden etcetera were in the Ranga Vilasam.
Ceiling of the Throne Chamber
Unfortunately, only one fourth of the original
Thirumalai Nayak Palace
survives till date. There is a beautiful arcaded octagon, covered by a high dome, in the central Throne Chamber. It is approximately 60–70 feet high. The central dome is supported by ribs of stone and titanic pillars and scalloped arches, which exhibits the aforesaid blend of the three different styles and schools of architecture. The pillars are 13 metres tall and are conjoined together by a foliated brick-work. The entablature rises up to 20 metres. The decoration of the
Thirumalai Nayakkar Mahal
made use of shell lime, blended with egg white, to give it a smooth texture coupled with a glossy furnishing.

Question, Meet Answer.
Any man looking to increase the size of his penis is a viable candidate to use a penis extender. They're a proven way to add penile tissue and make the penis bigger. Penis extenders are also a good method to straighten a bent or curved penis.
Are they safe?
Penis extenders are safe, provided you follow the instructions and use a quality product made of durable, medical grade plastics and metals (to avoid getting a rash if you're prone to allergic reactions). Do your research before you purchase a device; look for client testimonials and for a doctor-approved product, such as the ProExtender™.
How long does it take?
This depends on the user. Generally speaking, most men who use a penis extender see the most dramatic results between three to six months. Having said that, some products work faster than others. The ProExtender™, for example, has shown substantial penis growth among users in less than a month.
Is it uncomfortable?
Again, this depends on the product. Most products are advertised as "painless", and considering that many men wear them longer than ten hours a day for months at a time, they're comfortable once you're used to wearing them.
How often should I wear it?
Results are proportionate to the time they're used. The best results have been shown by men wearing the device for eight to ten hours a day, from three to six months. Many men wear the device at work, provided they have a non-physical job. Others wear it while they sleep.
So if I use a penis extender even more I can grow a huge penis?
Penis extenders use traction to grow penile cells. This technique is medically proven to increase penis size up to 22 inches. Most men, however, will see growth up to a maximum point. You can safely expect several inches using a penis extender. Two feet, however, is pushing it.

Hey everyone!
This week's Celebrity focus is Blake Lively aka Serena Van der Woodsen of Gossip Girl. She has been a style icon as the 'IT' girl on the show with her glamorous dressing style. I've rarely seen her go wrong with her makeup – be it nude lips, bronzed sunkissed look or a deep rich red lip, she carries everything effortlessly!
Blake Lively experiments quite a bit with her lip colors and finishes, she can be seen with matte nude lips, glossy natural pinks as well as rich deep reds/berries. She is most often spotted with a glossy natural pink lip but on occasion, she sports a brilliant rich berry or matte red lip as well. She carries nude matte lips with equal ease!
She wears a signature eye most of the time- blackest black kohl and jet black mascara which gives a sharp defined black outline to her grey-blue eyes and the contrast looks gorgeous! I would love to know what mascara/falsies she wears, it looks dense and black without looking too unnatural.
I've not seen her experiment much with different colors when it comes to the eyes. She sports blue liner+kohl like in the image below which goes beautifully with her eye color. I've also notices a haze of champagne gold eye shadow in some of her looks. She always wears plenty of highlighter on the inner corners of her eyes which further contrasts with her black kohl/lashes, giving a very glamorous look.
Her skin is generally matte and if she uses a bit of highlighter, its probably a powder based one. Her skin has a gorgeous warmth to it, like she has just returned from a beach holiday! She is most often spotted with a peachy warm blush which goes beautifully with her skin tone. If its something I absolutely love about her look, its the way her blush is blended. It always goes a little deeper towards the nose giving it more of a natural rather than contoured look. The final effect is a very natural healthy flush that adds a lot of warmth to her face.
If I had to pick my favorite Blake Lively look – it would be the first one from the top, its a quintessential Serena Van Der Woodsen look – the peachy warm blush, natural glossy lips and sharp focus on the eyes with black kohl. jet black mascara and highlighted inner corners! My second favorite is the one I couldn't find an image of but I took a still from the show which is shown below. She is wearing a rich purplish berry lip which look so lovely on her! The lip color reminds me of MAC Rebel lipstick. She has paired it with her signature eye makeup.
Do you like Blake Lively's style? Which look of hers is your favorite? Share your thoughts in the comments below!

Fine Tools by the Chest Load archive
Friday 20 December 2013
John Adamson brings us details of some lots that recently went under the hammer, many of which were snapped up by American buyers with an eye for British and Continental European items
Tradesmen among the early British settlers in the United States brought with them their tools in tool chests.
At the lively auction held by David Stanley Auctions on 28 September, history almost repeated itself with many of the 1,157 lots being bought by American dealers and collectors. At the end of the sale boxes and cases of tools were to be seen being readied for shipment to America. But, although two fine tool chests had been on offer in the sale, neither of them ended up in American hands.
The next international David Stanley Auction is on Saturday 29 March, 2014, at the Hermitage Leisure Centre, Whitwick, Leicestershire LE67 5EU. For more information click here. More information about David Russell's collection is in his book Antique Woodworking Tools: Their Craftsmanship from the Earliest Times to the Twentieth Century - click here to find out more.

Sec 4(1) and Sec 85(2)(a) of the Act provide that the form and manner of making application and fee payable for registration of a real estate project are to be specified by regulations to be made by the Regulatory Authority. On the other hand, Sec 9 (2) and Sec 84 (2)(b) state application and fee payable for registration of real estate agent are to be prescribed by rules to be made by appropriate authority.
In a letter to the central government, MGP said, "It is difficult to conceive that parliament, which empowered the appropriate governments to prescribe rules as regards the form for making application for registration and fees payable by real estate agents, would sub-delegate the important power to specify the form and fees payable for registration of real estate projects to the regulatory authority by way of regulations.''
It added, "Such inadvertent depriving of state governments of the important financial power is likely to be strongly opposed even by all state governments. It is therefore necessary to rectify this legislative inadvertent error and restore to the state governments power to fix the fees for registration of real estate projects.''
MGP suggested that fees should be prescribed by the rules made by the appropriate government whereas form and manner of application may be specified by the appropriate commission.

For example, if college students don't attend classes for lengthy durations of time and may receive passing grades as easily as students who've attended lessons frequently, one might wonder the place the level of fairness comes in. One could ponder whether it will be extra beneficial to have most of the last mark/grade of a course based on the assignments and quizzes carried out in school throughout the year as a substitute.
However his tune on that exact reform has modified since he turned the idol of that very same schooling establishment. Now Kozol has little curiosity in enhancements outside the current system, similar to vouchers and charters. Why? As a result of, he says in Disgrace, it opens up a gate of kinds for a small fraction of poor people." By no means thoughts that the physique of empirical proof suggests that choice helps not solely the children who depart failing public colleges but also those left behind. Research of voucher programs in Florida, Milwaukee, and San Antonio all discover that vouchers not only have not harmed public faculties; they have improved them.

Teaching in a marketing main may open up more decisions.
The promise of the nationwide government of instantly having jobs after graduating from the program is a lie. Even without the addition to the labor pressure, unemployment is still rampant. There isn't a actuality in the assurance of jobs to Ok-12 graduates; thousands and thousands of Filipinos are nonetheless unemployed. To add to this, the government is selling the export of labor by means of working in jobs overseas for cheap wages. The Okay-12 program will additional topic the Filipinos, particularly the youth, to exploitation by overseas companies as low cost slave labor.
At present, on-line business house owners and eBay sellers are usually not required to collect gross sales taxes on gadgets which can be sold and shipped to customers in one other state. If the state the eBay seller or enterprise is situated in has a state or native gross sales tax, then you're supposed to collect gross sales tax on objects sold and delivered to the same state, however you should not have to gather gross sales taxes on gross sales to prospects positioned in another state.

"Subjectivity as inevitably caused by lack means one can give up enforcing a meaning on one's life as a make-or-break way of compensating for lack" – Andre Vantino
"I've known you for years. Everyone says you were beautiful when you were young, but I want to tell you I think you're more beautiful now than then. Rather than your face as a young woman, I prefer your face as it is now. Ravaged." – Marguerite Duras, The Lover
"This..object of identification,..as love object,..is..what tears away this lover metaphorically,..in proposing himself as lovable,..by making of him..the subject of a lack" – THE SEMINAR OF JACQUES LACAN, BOOK X, ANXIETY 1962-1963
Translated by Cormac Gallagher from unedited French typescripts
"[He] goes on and on..how his [mum]..did this to him,..giving an account of..dissatisfactions. ..What if the ultimate trauma is not the "cause", but that there is no cause, that the conflicts of the symbolic..are constitutive, that there isn't a grand story [to] explain it all?" – "What if any talk of causes is simply a way of minimizing anxiety and horror by suggesting the possibility of an alternative timeline where this dissatisfaction didn't exist? I confess that I find this thought horrifying. If every master-signifier or narrative I present is ultimately a mythological, fantasmatic frame designed to cover over the impossible real haunting my situation, how is it possible for me to act at all? Lacan liked to say that the idea of the world is a fantasy:" "The world is symmetrical to the subject– the world of what I last time called thought is the equivalent, the mirror image, of thought. That is why there was nothing but fantasy regarding knowledge until the advent of modern science" (Seminar 20, 127). levipaulbryant – Larval Subjects – levi bryant
"This lack of the subject is productive since the subject tries to fill it, to close it with identifications." – The Lacanian Thing – Mario Vrbancic

I was going to make a list of ten of my favourite words over the last ten years, but thats ridiculous. I have hundreds of favourite words, and I have better things to do than try and whittle that down.
They include, this week, the words Malevolent, Nefarious, Mellifluous and Fucknugget. But there are lots of other words I could call favourites. Favourite swearwords, for example, could take up several different lists all on their own. Sweary swearwords, Non-sweary-swearwords, Half-sweary-swearwords, Variations on the word cunt, there are literally a WORLD of lists out there. Which I will not be narrowing down for this one post.
I like the word Yes. And I like the word Takeoff.

Presbyterians are Christians who trace our roots to the Protestant Reformation of the sixteenth century. We are part of the larger Reformed tradition, and our forefathers John Calvin and John Knox emphasized the beliefs that still identify us 500 years later!
The Word "Presbyterian" comes from the Greek New Testament word meaning "elder." In Presbyterian churches, spiritual leadership and oversight of the congregation is entrusted to elders. Ruling Elders are laypeople who have been elected by the congregation to work alongside the minister in providing for the worship, growth, nurture and outreach of the congregation. All active members are eligible to be considered for the office of Ruling Elder.
Teaching Elders (also called Ministers of Word and Sacrament) attend seminary and are trained to carry out the responsibilities of preaching the Word and leading in the sacraments of Baptism and the Lord's Supper. The Teaching Elder along with the Ruling Elders who are currently in service make up the church's governing board, which is called the "Session."
Local Presbyterian congregations are connected to other Presbyterian congregations through a series of higher governing bodies called presbyteries, synods and the General Assembly.
If you would like to learn more about the Presbyterian Church and our beliefs, we invite you to join us as we worship, study and fellowship together!
