By making fast accurate decisions on your customers whilst complying with best practice and legislation and managing your exposure to risk and fraud
According to research by insurance group LV=*, Direct Debit payment fraud accounts for around 10.6% of all identity fraud cases and is increasing.
With the introduction of Chip and PIN, fraudsters have moved away from cloning payment cards, and are now targeting individuals' account details and identities to acquire goods and services.
Fraud has the potential to damage your reputation, your customer service levels and ultimately your bottom line but protecting your business from fraud can be a challenge.
We can help you minimise fraud and risk in your payments by allowing you to make fast, accurate decisions about your customers whilst complying with best practice and legislation.
Minimise fraud and avoid theft of your goods and services
Fraudsters posing as legitimate customers either steal someone else's bank details or use a fictitious account that doesn't exist in order to obtain goods or services from you.
Research by insurance group LV= has revealed that over 97,000 Brits have fallen victim to criminals setting up fraudulent Direct Debits from their accounts, with this figure expected to escalate over the next three years.*
The result is lost stock, loss of income and wasted time in cancelling invalid Direct Debit instructions. We can help you reduce payment fraud by identifying fraudulent Direct Debit set-ups before you process them.
Bank Wizard Absolute makes the connection between your customer and their bank account details in near-real time to help you identify fraudulent payment details up-front.
Improve efficiency and minimise risk in your payments
Increasingly, best practice guidelines advise you to take measures to 'know your customer' and ensure that the bank account details given are those of an account that does actually belong to them.
Over the last four years, the number of criminals gaining access to victims' bank accounts directly in order to set up regular payments has risen by 288% - (LV= research) *
So the process must be secure but at the same time efficient so as not to impact your customer service.
We can help you make the connection between your customer and their bank account without the need for paper-based authentication.
Bank Wizard Absolute reduces the need for time- consuming, manual verification measures by making the connection between your customer and their bank account details up-front in near-real time.
Make risk-based decisions on your customer acquisition
In the financial services sector the FCA stipulate that Know Your Customer (KYC) checks should be carried out on all new customers.
Not all customers will have the same value to you, so your business processes should reflect this.
We can help you make risk-based decisions on customer acquisition and effectively manage exceptions, while at the same time demonstrate best practice on fraud prevention.
Bank Wizard Absolute allows you to make risk- based decisions about your customers by matching your customer and their bank account details up-front in near real-time.

[UPDATE] The Sustainability of the Avant-Garde, SAMLA November 7-9
In a 2005 essay entitled "Why Experimental Fiction Threatens to Destroy Publishing, Jonathan Franzen and Life as We Know It: A Correction," American fiction writer Ben Marcus suggests that by catering to the masses, authors have willingly diluted their literary works. For Marcus, this is frightening because it means that novelists are "selling out" to readers who crave easy reads in exchange for the author gaining some economic stability. Even worse, he attests that the publishing world is squeezing out those experimental writers whose works are not necessarily economically viable precisely because they do not appeal to a wide audience. This panel explores the sustainability of the avant-garde author in a world where readers are reading less and the publishing world will not publish them. The panel welcomes any papers that discuss how sustainability then becomes a reoccurring issue in contemporary avant-garde literature. Possible topics could include, but are not limited to: How do fears of sustainability shape the work of the avant-garde? What methods have avant-garde novelists adopted in order to remain relevant and somewhat viable? How has the digital age helped or hindered this sustainability? How do these concerns shape the way authors envision their readers? How is the "future" of the novel, avant-garde or not, facing its own struggles with sustainability? Paper proposals should be no more than 300 words and include your name, affiliation, and a short bio; these can be sent to Emily Hall at firstname.lastname@example.com by June 15, 2014.

Honored by hall
By LANCE MIHM
Staff Writer
Three of four high school graduates returned to Wapakoneta this weekend as the guests of honor as the newest members of the Wapakoneta City Schools Distinguished Alumni Hall of Fame.
Bruce Campbell, Elizabeth Madigan and Jack Earl attended a dinner ceremony Saturday as they were installed as the newest members of the school district's Hall of Fame. Shawn Flarida could not be in attendance.
School district administrators and area residents honored these four people Saturday and they hope this will spur people to nominate more people in the future by highlighting their accomplishments.
"We started out in October with 30 applicants to consider," said Wapakoneta High School Principal Scott Minnich, who headed up the organization of the event. "It wasn't easy, and everybody on the committee agreed they were all impressive. It is a a way to show kids the potential they can reach."
Madigan, who was a 1976 graduate of Wapakoneta High School, is a professor at the Frances Payne Bolton School of Nursing at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland. She also is the head of the World Health Organization Collaborating Center at the university.
Madigan, who is considered a national home health content expert and provides workshops and consultations internationally, said her humble beginnings in Wapakoneta helped shape her into what she is today.
"Most people don't know where Wapakoneta is," Madigan said. "At the college, when Neil Armstrong died, they said 'Oh yeah, that's where you are from. He was a humble man.' I said 'that's how our people are."
She said without many of the things she learned in Wapakoneta, she wouldn't be where she was today.
"I wanted to be a nurse and I was going to go to Lima Tech," Madigan said. "A guidance counselor at Wapakoneta told me 'No, you need to go to a four year school."
She said the school is number one in the state in receiving government research funding.
Jack Earl was a pioneering ceramic artist in the 1960s and was one of the first artists in America to use porcelain in a studio setting. He has become renowned for his sculptures, many of which depict everyday life in rural Ohio.
Earl, who was a graduate of the Blume High School class of 1952, said attending a high school in a town like Wapakoneta helped prepare him for the future.
"I wasn't a student, I was an attendee," Earl said, explaining his grades were not where he would have liked early on in his education. "I was here because I had to be. When I came to high school I had a choice, I chose to be dumb, but I learned humility and belief. That is the road that knowledge is built on."
Bruce Campbell, who was a 1950 graduate of Blume, worked 20 years in management at Superior Credit Union. He helped it grow from near closure to a vibrant cooperative with 10 offices in five communities, including Wapakoneta.
Campbell got a job building school buses at Superior Coach in 1951 and his journey to management began there. He joined the Superior Credit Union board in 1972 and became treasurer in 1974 before becoming general manager approximately 20 years later. Campbell helped rescue the company from a 33 percent delinquency rate.
"I had a vision of how a credit union should operate," Campbell said. "It should enable everyone to become a member."
Flarida, who was unable to attend the event, sent a video saying thank you to people throughout the community for his nomination. Flarida was competing in an event and could not make the ceremony.
Flarida is a three-time National Reining Horse Association Futurity Champion and is the only rider to win both an individual and a team gold medal in the World Equestrian Games. In his 19-year career as a professional rider, he is only the second person to win in excess of $2 million. He has now pursed more than $4 million.
Flarida was a 1988 graduate of Wapakoneta High School
All of the inductees felt they owed much of their success to their humble beginnings in Wapakoneta.
"One of the most important things is you are being honored by the people you would most want to be honored by," Earl said.

|Family File Folders
North Platte Genealogical Society
While I did most of the copying, a good crew of volunteers prepared files, cross-checked and filed them. There were lots of laughs along the way. In the category of frustration, we soon realized that we were spending society money for the copies, paper, files and rental of the machine. However, it was that or ignore the access given us to the files. Working diligently we were able to finish the last file on March 1st, turned the copy machine off and closed the last file drawer.
The five drawer file cabinet is full of great information ... pedigree charts and family group sheets, copies of marriage records, death certificates, photographs and more. I first moved to North Platte in 1976 and consider myself a transplant. Can you imagine my surprise when I discovered an old cousin from Indiana had moved here and is buried here? I found her information in a family file I was copying.
When I wasn't copying at the library, I was here at home scanning records such as marriages of Lincoln County, WPA interviews and church records. Eventually we hope to have those on a web page. It takes time, but it is worth the effort.
It is time the You Go Genealogy Girls start thinking about travel. YGGG #2 is coming to visit me in 1 1/2 weeks. She is presenting the program, Antique Photos and Cherished Reflections, for the North Platte Genealogical Society meeting on March 21st. The next day we will load up 'Lil Red and head to Broken Bow, Nebraska. We plan on staying in an old, renovated hotel and using the Custer County Historical Society museum/research center for two days. They also have file cabinets of family files. We will be scanning the files. This is our first excursion together since May/June of last year.
You Go Genealogy Girl #1 .... Ruby
PS If you are interested in the North Platte Genealogical Society family files, they are on the second floor of the North Platte Public Library, 120 West 4th Street, North Platte, Nebraska.

One girl's twistedly fantastic interpretation of what the hell is really going on in those tribes.

Stacey: Sheppard, That Is
Stacey is a 44 year old mortician and I like her already based on that fact and that fact alone. The freakiest of the freakies are morticians so I'm expecting all sorts of weird facial tics and disturbingly morbid stories around the campfire from Stacey. Maybe she could disembowel Sophie. Give her a night or two. It could happen.
Stacey's personal claim to fame is that none of her kids have ever been in trouble with the law. I'm not sure how that's a "claim to fame" as it's NORMAL for kids not to be in jail, but whatevs. I've got to hear from the lady herself. Let's check out her video:
Is her last name Sheppard?
I love her! I told you she'd be a freak. Meet your entertainment, folks. I have no idea what she just said, but I'm eating it up with a spoon.
Oh, oh, oh... her new name just came to me - SPACEY. Beauteous.

Ugh. Her eyebrows moved up each time she started a new phrase on the first 4 to 5 phrases. Annoying. I hated her right then.ReplyDelete
According to her game playing theory, it sounds like she's going to try to play like Boston Rob. No way is she good enough to make people think her ideas are theirs, and so forth. She bugs!
The head roll is annoying already.ReplyDelete
Oh no. Spacey ain't ready to sleep outside. I weep for what might have been with this one cuz I don't see her making it.ReplyDelete

Gotta love someone who speaks in the third person.
She's either going to be REALLY annoying or very endearing...time will tell.
OMG! She will be fun to watch. I don't see her giving up tho. I'm not saying I like her, just that she will be fun to watch. Hope she's on Coach's team! LOLReplyDelete

Indiana Pi
Dr. Edwin J. Goodwin, M.D., a physician in the community of Solitude, Posey County, Indiana, was one of a long line of mathematical hobbyists to try to square the circle. Dr. Goodwin thought he had succeeded, and, apparently a loyal Hoosier, decided that the State of Indiana should be the first beneficiary of this "new mathematical truth."
In 1897, Dr. Goodwin wrote a bill incorporating his new ideas, and persuaded his State Representative to introduce it. Taylor I. Record was the Representative from Posey County to the Indiana General Assembly. Representative Record was a farmer, timber and lumber merchant. The session of 1897 was in his first and only term in the legislature. During the debate on the bill, he was quoted as saying he knew nothing of it, but introduced it at the request of Dr. Goodwin.1 Representative Record submitted the bill, House Bill 246, on January 18, 1897.
Dr. Goodwin had copyrighted his solution to squaring the circle, and his idea was to allow Indiana to use these new facts in its schools free of charge. People in the rest of the country and the world would have to pay him a royalty. The preamble of the bill outlined this generous offer:
A Bill for an act introducing a new mathematical truth and offered as a contribution to education to be used only by the State of Indiana free of cost by paying any royalties whatever on the same, provided it is accepted and adopted by the official action of the Legislature of 1897.
The bill itself is crammed top to bottom with 19th century mathematical jargon. It seems likely that few members of the General Assembly understood it (many said so during the debate). They were right not to understand. Petr Beckmann, in his History of Pi, wrote that the bill contained "hair-raising statements which not only contradict elementary geometry, but also appear to contradict each other" (p. 175). Click here for the full text of the HB 246, 1897.
Even for the mathematical novice, though, one statement stands out. Towards the end of the second of three sections of the bill, it says "the ratio of the diameter and circumference is as five-fourths to four." Pi is the ratio of the circumference to the diameter of the circle, and the ratio 4 to 5/4 is 3.2. A nice, round, wrong number.
The House Bill 246 was referred to the House Committee on Canals, also known as the Committee on Swamp Lands. Perhaps the leadership thought the bill had something to do with surveying. Representative M. B. Butler, chairman of the Canals Committee, recommended that it be referred to the Committee on Education, and this was done on January 19.
The newspapers followed the debate. The Indianapolis Sentinel, on January 20, reported that the bill was "not intended to be a hoax." The article also reported that Indiana Superintendent of Public Instruction Geeting believed that Goodwin had found the solution to the problem of squaring the circle.
The House Education Committee, chaired by Representative S. E. Nicholson, reported the bill out of committee "with the recommendation that said bill do pass." It was taken up by the full House on February 5, and passed unanimously, 67 to 0.
Most of the local newspapers merely reported this action, but the Indianapolis Journal wrote the next day that "this is the strangest bill that has ever passed an Indiana Assembly."
Now in steps our hero. On February 5, the head of the Purdue University Mathematics Department, Professor Clarence Abiathar Waldo, was in the Statehouse lobbying for the University's budget appropriation. Professor Waldo had been an instructor of mathematics (and Latin) at several seminaries, institutes and colleges in the Midwest for more than 20 years. He had also been in administration, as a Registrar and Vice President at other institutions, which may explain why he had been given the task of keeping track of the University's appropriation. He was the author of a book titled Manual of Descriptive Geometry.2
He was astonished to find the General Assembly debating mathematical legislation. Naturally, he listened in. Naturally, he was horrified. He heard a Representative speak for the bill:
The case is perfectly simple. If we pass this bill which establishes a new and correct value of pi, the author offers our state without cost the use of his discovery and its free publication in our school textbooks, while everyone else must pay him a royalty.3
After the debate, a Representative offered to introduce him to Dr. Goodwin. Professor Waldo replied that he was already acquainted with as many crazy people as he cared to know.
That evening, Professor Waldo "coached" (as he put it) the Senators about the bill. Still, on February 11 the bill was introduced in the Senate and referred to the Committee on Temperance. With a speed we can only admire, the committee reported the bill favorably the next day, and sent it to the Senate floor for debate.4
This time its reception was different. According to the Indianapolis News report of February 13, quoted by Edington (p. 209),
...the bill was brought up and made fun of. The Senators made bad puns about it, ridiculed it and laughed over it. The fun lasted half an hour. Senator Hubbell said that it was not meet for the Senate, which was costing the State $250 a day, to waste its time in such frivolity. He said that in reading the leading newspapers of Chicago and the East, he found that the Indiana State Legislature had laid itself open to ridicule by the action already taken on the bill. He thought consideration of such a propostion was not dignified or worthy of the Senate. He moved the indefinite postponement of the bill, and the motion carried.
The Indianapolis Journal had Senator Hubbell saying that "the Senate might as well try to legislate water to run up hill as to establish mathematical truth by law." The Journal noted that
...no one who spoke against it intimated that there was anything wrong with the theories it advances. All of the senators who spoke on the bill admitted that they were ignorant of the merits of the proposition. It was simply regarded as not being a subject for legislation (Edington, p. 210).
Senator Hubbell moved to postpone further consideration of the bill indefinitely, and the motion passed. According to Beckmann, the bill "has not been on the agenda since" (p. 177). The official history of the Indiana General Assembly (p. 429) gives the credit to Professor Waldo
Thanks mainly to this alert professor, who convinced the Senate not to tamper with "unsolvable mysteries . . . above man's abilities to comprehend," the Indiana General Assembly failed to do in 1897 what no one before or since has done, i.e. square the circle.

3. Here's Professor Waldo's account of what happened, quoted in Edington (p. 210):
As the session of the Legislature was drawing toward its close it chanced to be the duty of the writer to visit the State Capitol and make sure that the Academy appropriation was cared for. When admitted to the floor of the House, imagine his surprize when he discovered that he was in the midst of a debate upon a piece of mathematical legislation. An ex-teacher from the eastern part of the state was saying: "The case is perfectly simple. If we pass this bill which establishes a new and correct value of pi, the author offers our state without cost the use of his discovery and its free publication in our school textbooks, while everyone else must pay him a royalty." The roll was then called and the bill passed its third and final reading in the lower house. A member then showed the writer a copy of the bill just passed and asked him if he would like an introduction to the learned doctor, its author. He declined the courtesy with thanks remarking that he was acquainted with as many crazy people as he cared to know.
That evening the senators were properly coached and shortly thereafter as it came to its final reading in the upper house they threw out with much merriment the epoch making discovery of the Wise Man from the Pocket.
Edington notes that Waldo was writing 20 years
after the event (the account was published in 1917), and apparently did not
check his facts. Waldo put the year down as 1899 (causing Edington much
wasted effort in the records of the 1899 legislature). Waldo was
apparently present for the House debate, on February 5, and remembers having
"coached" the senators that evening. Yet the bill passed the
Temperance Committee six days later. Were these senators still uncoached,
or did they pass it so it could be ridiculed on the floor of the Senate?
Back to the text.
They must have been drunk. Edington (p. 209) speculates that this may have
been "done intentionally, for certainly the bill could have been referred
to no committee more appropriately named." Waldo says he
coached the Senate the week before. Either he had not coached those on the
committee (who were then probably unpleasantly surprised by its reception in the
full Senate), or the Senators on the committee were just having some fun, or
Professor Waldo remembered incorrectly, and he did his coaching on February 12,
after the bill passed the Senate Temperance Committee but before the Senate

RenderMan needed a new other design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 127 designs submitted by 7 freelance designers.
We are a small startup developing cool iPhone/iPad games. We want to develop innovative titles that take advantage of mobile multitouch platforms.
We like design that looks effortless and clean. However complicated the underlying technology, the way the final product is exposed to the user should be friendly, approachable, and almost effortless to use.
Hipnoz is targeted towards teens who like music and dancing, and who have at least a few music albums on their iPhone/iPad. They follow Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, etc. on social media platforms like Twitter.
Hipnoz is a dancing/rhythm game for the iPhone and iPad. The player's goal is to get a 3D character to dance. Once the player has chosen a song from the device's iTunes library, the player starts tapping to the beat of the song. When a steady beat has been established, the main part of the game begins. Icons flow on the bottom of the screen showing gestures the player needs to do (tap, pinch, etc.). The player needs to do one gesture per beat. For every successful gesture, the character does a dance move. The game ends when the player fills the progress bar or when the song ends, whichever comes first.
The design should work both on iPad (10" screen) as well as iPhone (4" screen). We're not looking for two separate designs - we're looking for one design that can be adapted for both (e.g., moving buttons around, etc.)
This is a multi-touch game, so the user interface elements must be big enough to touch. We have 6 game screens that need UI work. The attached brief goes over each screen, shows you what we have, and tells you what we need. We also need the Hipnoz application icon.
You can be creative with the backgrounds in all except the main game level where the background is part of the game. We can change the colors of the main game to match your design.
We're looking for a clean and fun design. One idea is a design centered around clubbing --- this is a dancing game after all.

On Our Radar: 'Princess' Is Not a Career
The Guardian takes a look at Goldman Sachs' biennial partner-selection process, underway this month. Candidates are vetted through a rigorous process called 'cross-ruffing', and those who eventually get the nod join one of the most powerful and prestigious groups in global finance. —Nikki Waller

sincity1821 needed a new web page design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 30 designs submitted by 11 freelance designers.
Awarding creative and unique ideas for brand new company to support our troops!
Adopt A Serviceman
Logo: Corporate Identity
Website: To allow servicemen to post bios as a "potential pen-pal", and for individuals and/or families to adopt them.
Logo: $200
Website: $500
Basic HTML functionality of website: $150
Website w/ logo: $700
Website w/ logo, and "WOW": $800
Website functional w/ logo: $850
Website functional w/logo, and "WOW": $950
Please see legal section below.
Summary : Deliverables
Logo Design
Website coded or uncoded
Extra Money -> Optional
Make the website functional: add $150
Make me say "WOW": add $100
-these extra money options are awarded only if the website becomes fully functional (i.e. users can access pages and content easily, and allow a "layman" to maneuver pages seamlessly), and/or I am actually very impressed with the logo design and website design.
Both of these extra money incentives can be awarded or kept, by me, separately or together, and in my discretion to give away or keep if I do not feel the site and/or logo fits into these terms.
Company Background -> Adopt A Serviceman
Serviceman and Supporter Matchmaker
Adopt A Serviceman will be an event company bringing together individuals and families with local military men and women who are being shipped overseas. The goal is to highlight the human aspect of the military man or woman who is deployed to war, away from his or her, friends or family. Through the sponsors, families will be paired up and be able to meet their Soldier, Airman, Sailor, Guard or Marine at a fun family event, before he or she is deployed. They will then continue to support their adopted Serviceman while he is away through letter writing, sending gifts, email, etc.
By entering this contest you agree to the following:
If your Logo or website design is selected, you agree to forward ALL source files and material for the deliverables, to the contest holder, upon payment.
That your logo and/or website design is not a copy or alteration of someone else's logo and/or website design.
If nothing is found to meet our identity strategy, we reserve the right to cancel this contest without awarding a winner.
You are the legal owner of said deliverables, and hold all rights to said deliverables.
You will transfer ownership and all rights of said deliverables to me upon payment.
Full payment of $950 is only paid if all requirements are met to their fullest, and we reserve the right to pay out the lower amounts listed above at our discretion, based on what is completed and is chosen as a winner in the contest.
Adopt A Serviceman is a company based in the USA and currently supports; only the military of our country. However the soldiers who were born, located, stationed, and/or from places elsewhere than the USA may still be qualified to participate in our program and receive its benefits. (**Note: If you create a design to submit to this contest, that may include flags, images, or any other stock relating directly to a military force, please only use those of the USA only.)
One thing that will be unique to this contest is that, this is - and at the same time, is-not just a single logo design. We need a general design that can be tweaked (in color, images, and wording), by you as the designer, to support the different branches of the military. One idea that came up was to have a main logo (for Adopt A Serviceman) that included, either, all of the hats (NOTE: Does not have to be limited to just hats, it can also be medals/vehicles/weapons/etc.) that showed ranking in the military or just a single generic one that would represent all of them without being specific to a single branch. Included in the same idea, after creating the generic logo, would be to create several logos of the same basic layout, however these would be made specific to branches of the military (i.e. Adopt a/an Airman, Sailor, Marine, Soldier, Guard).
We need a logo and website which projects an image of our company as being or representing:
Strength; Not Weakness
Simple; Clean
Shows Action; Not Idleness
Be creative! If you feel that something you come up with is a good design, POST IT! Fresh ideas are just as much a part of this contest as the ones we feel fall into our exact specifications.
We will not rule out any design, logo or website, just because it wasn't what we had planned on.
We would like to keep the main logo generic, and for the sub-logos - you may use colors that are associated with that sector.
We want a logo for "Adopt A Serviceman" that will be a ground for the other, sub-logos, to be created.
For the font used, we liked the idea of an "old-typewriter" theme, but, again, we are not limiting to this. In fact, we would rather see designs with your ideas of our company, as this doesn't blind us to only what we see as a good design!
We are looking to create a website that will create a professional web presence for our company and include some features that make it interactive. And again coding is NOT REQUIRED. However if coded we just need very basic HTML to allow: navigation between pages, use of links for other web pages and e-mails, and a contact page with text boxes used to input info sent to us. The coding is simply to help when our programmer begins working on the more complicated aspects of the interactivity.
Down the road we want the site to be able to allow servicemen to create profiles where they can post pictures, add information about themselves, create wish-lists, etc. Sort of like a "Myspace.com" or "Facebook.com" for men and women in the military, however the person will have to send proof their military status, and after being approved by our staff, can customize their profile with things they enjoy. Supporters will be able to connect with an individual that they would be interested in by "adopting" (writing letters, sending care packages, gifts, etc) them. None of these features need to be programmed by you, we simply need the pages designed with the same basic layout of the site.
For contest purposes: When you post your website entries, we would just like to see the "Home Page", and if we like your work, we will tell you to show us some examples of the other types of pages.
If you are chosen as the winner, we will need you to supply; a generic template to use for other pages to be created when coded, along complete designs of the following pages:
- Home page
- Sign-up page
- About us
- Search page
- Press (would like to allow RSS feeds on here as well)
- Cities
- Navy - "Adopt a Sailor"
- Air Force - "Adopt an Airman"
- Army - "Adopt a Soldier"
- Guard - "Adopt a Guard"
- Marines - "Adopt a Marine"
- Contact us
- Gallery
- We don't want to see anything that has been copied or altered unless it is your own work and was never used by any other individual, company, corporation, group,etc.
- DO NOT break any laws to create a design for this contest! (Note: includes laws in the country of origin of the design, as well as those of the USA)
- Try not to use colors that would relate our logo to any specific section of the military.
- Do not include anything that would easily offend anyone in the website or logo
- If you use images and/or stock for anything you will be entering, please make sure you do not use anything that is owned by any other individual, company, corporation, etc unless you have received expressed permission to do so beforehand.
- Do not limit your designs, respective of the legal aspects, to what we have said we are looking for in this contest.
- Do not submit entries to this contest that are related to other countries or military', than that of the USAWe look forward to all of your entries and know with all the fantastic designers on this site, that we will be seeing some great ideas!

Police reports and 911 calls released by the Annapolis Police Department depict a dark, frightening scene on Copeland Street on Tuesday, as a man reportedly stabbed a woman to death and was, in turn, shot dead by police shortly after midnight.
Police identified the man as William Ranaldo Brown Jr., 31, who had had a relationship with the woman, Ronnesha Simms, 29.
"He will not get off of her. He won't get off of her. He will not get off of her," a calm but frightened woman told a police dispatcher at 12:22 a.m. When asked to keep an eye on the suspect in case he left, the caller replied: "I don't want to look out the window no more."
A few moments later: "He got a knife, they said. They said he got a knife. Please, oh my God, please. They said he got a knife. He about to stab her. Please come!"
Another 911 call released by police was mostly unintelligible, with what sounds like a female voice crying and screaming.
The next 911 caller, at 12:24 a.m., struggled to describe the scene to a police dispatcher. But she could describe what she heard: A woman screaming for her life.
"I can't see. It's pitch black. I thought I was dreaming. I woke up and I literally, it's six or seven people there. This lady is screaming at the top of her lungs," she told the dispatcher.
She said there were children "running in between them fighting."
Police arrived on the scene moments later.
Officer Gustavo Martinez, the second officer to arrive, wrote in a police report that he heard five or six gunshots as he was getting out of his car.
Police identified the officer who fired the shots as Officer Alfred Thomas, 42. He's been with the Annapolis Police for 14 years, working as a patrol officer and on the SWAT team.
Martinez said in his report that he ran up to the home, where he saw a black man lying face-down on the sidewalk and a black woman, covered in blood, lying face-up on the street.
Court records show that last August, Simms applied for criminal assault charges against Brown, saying he had sent her text messages threatening to kill her. Simms said they had fought for weeks, including Brown chasing her with a knife.
Brown pleaded guilty to second-degree assault in the case and was given a suspended sentence. He was on probation in that case as well as another assault case at the time of Tuesday's incident.
"This woman was asking Officer Thomas for help," Martinez wrote. He used his police radio to report "shots fired" and handcuffed the man.
Martinez said he checked to make sure that his fellow officer was OK. The woman asked for help again. "Officer Thomas told her that he was here to help her and advised her that more help was on the way," Martinez wrote.
Martinez later found six shell casings in the area.
Simms' children, ages 2 and 9, were found next door and were taken to the police station until a crisis team arrived, according to police reports. Relatives later took custody of the children, police said.
Another officer who arrived a few minutes after the shooting described difficulty in taping off the crime scene.
"There was a great deal of highly agitated and upset community members flocking toward the crime scene," wrote Officer Kempton Urban.
The report indicated that Urban was later ordered to report to Annapolis Middle School, which would be used as a medevac helicopter landing area, but later was told that paramedics decided to take both Brown and Simms to Anne Arundel Medical Center instead.
Arriving at the hospital, Urban was told by doctors that paramedics were performing CPR on both Simms and Brown when the ambulances arrived, but both were pronounced dead at 1 a.m.
The incident remains under investigation.

David Walliams' wife Lara Stone is a leggy lovely at Number 10
Wearing a white Calvin Klein minidress, Dutch supermodel Lara Stone shows off acres of shapely pins as she accompanies her husband David Walliams to 10 Downing Street.
Accentuating her endless legs were a pair of towering platform sandals.
Funnyman David was being recognised for his marathon swim down the length of the Thames on behalf of Sport Relief.
During the reception at David Cameron's residence, the couple were joined by other celebrities such as John Bishop who also supported the charity.
The Liverpudlian comedian survived a gruelling challenge dubbed a 'week of hell' which involved making his own way from Paris to London.
He cycled from the French capital to the coast, then rowed across the channel and completed three marathons in as many days.

Why kids are missing breakfast
The Benefits of Breakfast
Sitting down to breakfast helps kids develop a healthy morning routine and take in vital nutrients like fiber, found in fruit and whole-grain cereal, and calcium and minerals, found in foods like milk or yogurt.
"It's the meal that breaks the fast," said Dr. Ronald Kleinman, chief of pediatric gastroenterology and nutrition at Massachusetts General Hospital. Without breakfast, kids may go up to 13 hours without eating between dinner at night and breakfast the next day, he said. Can you imagine powering your body for gym class, a quiz, and a science experiment with food from 13 hours ago?
Breakfast does more than provide energy and satisfy a growling stomach. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) cites these findings from breakfast studies:
- Eating breakfast can help improve math, reading, and standardized test scores, as well as memory and attention span.
- Children who eat breakfast are more likely to behave better in school and get along with their peers than those who do not.
- Children who eat breakfast on a regular basis are less likely to be overweight.
Quick Breakfasts at Home
Making breakfast can be as easy as 1-2-3 "cereal, fruit, and milk," Dr. Kleinman said. "I can probably put that together in two minutes."
Any low-sugar cereal, such as Cheerios or Corn Flakes, will do and all you need is a bowl and a spoon.
"Breakfast is a meal that doesn't require a lot of storage or special equipment to prepare," Dr. Kleinman said. A few other wholesome, fast breakfast options include:
- Low-fat yogurt with fruit and granola
- Whole grain waffles with 100 percent fruit juice
- A scrambled egg with tomato slices and toast
- A banana and a low-sugar granola bar a great grab-and-go option
Just beware of shortcut breakfast options that may not have any health benefit. "Kids should steer clear of caffeinated energy drinks," Dr. Kleinman said. "They make your heart race, they make you jittery, and they can make you irritable. We're talking teenagers they're already irritable enough!"
Also avoid chocolatey or sugary cereals that seem more like desserts than breakfast foods, he said. But do give your kids a choice. "Going through the aisle shopping for cereal, say, �Here we have two choices that look pretty good you pick one,'" Dr. Kleinman advised. "Give a child a choice but draw some lines around that choice. Once children realize there are limits, they stick to those pretty well."

Town of Garner, NCHome Menu
Garner Named Playful City USA for Fourth Straight Year
The national nonprofit KaBOOM! has honored the Town of Garner with a Playful City USA designation for the fourth consecutive year. Garner was one of just 11 cities or towns in the state to earn the recognition this year, joining Raleigh and Durham as the only Triangle municipalities to be named a 2017 Playful City USA.
Playful City USA honors cities and towns across the country for putting the needs of families first so kids can learn, grow and develop important life skills. As the organization notes, the communities it honors are transforming ordinary places into playful spaces and using play as a solution to the challenges facing their residents.
The 2017 Playful City USA recognition includes 258 communities across the nation. In total, these communities feature more than 14,000 safe and engaging play spaces that serve more than 4 million kids.
"We are honored to be recognized as a Playful City USA for the fourth consecutive time," Garner Parks, Recreation and Cultural Resources Director Sonya Shaw said. "Our parks and recreational facilities, programs and events provide numerous opportunities for citizens to be actively engaged in health, fitness and social activities."
Playful City USA honorees—including Garner, with its nationally accredited Parks, Recreation and Cultural Resources Department—are taking bold action to ensure kids have great places to play, no matter where they live.
KaBOOM! is dedicated to giving all kids—particularly those growing up in poverty in America—the childhood they deserve, filled with balanced and active play so they can thrive.
"We are thrilled to recognize Garner for putting kids first," KaBOOM! CEO James Siegal said. "The well-being of our communities starts with the well-being of our kids, and play is critical for them to thrive. It is our collective responsibility to ensure that all kids get the childhood they deserve filled with play."
To see the full list of Playful City USA communities and learn more about making play the easy choice for kids, visit kaboom.org/playfulcityusa.

Few things in a men's wardrobe take less time to wear and have a bigger impact than a pocket square.With a quick fold, you can add a unique character to your appearance in a few seconds. Once you have mastered the plain white linen pocket square, the next step is to add some color.
Consider matching a tone of your tie, bow tie or socks with one of the 10 differnt pocket square's embroidered colors and create a sophisticated look.
Clearly, Fort Belvedere pocket squares are made of Irish linen, but many are not familiar with the origins and characteristics of this classic material.
Linen has been used for thousands of years and is derived from the fibres of the flax plant that is spun into yarn. In order to qualify as Irish linen yarn, it must be spun in Ireland; likewise, Irish linen fabric must be woven in Ireland. Today, the best flax is grown on the mainland in Europe, where we also source our flax.
It is then spun, woven and finished in Ireland. In theory, good linen can be produced anywhere, however Ireland has a long standing tradition of producing high-quality linen, and hence Irish linen is often used as a synonym for top notch quality.
Like so many things, linen comes in different thicknesses & qualities. We thoroughly tested the available varieties, ranging from coarser linen to the finest double damask, and settled on a quality that was particularly well suited for pocket squares - elegant and crisp without added bulk.
Most pocket squares are sized to get the largest number of pocket squares per yard of fabric. Unfortunately, this doesn't result in pocket squares with the right size, especially because every fabric has a different weight and weave.
Most white linen squares are 43 cm x 43cm - 17" x 17" in size, and while they may work as handkerchiefs in the back pocket of your trousers, they are too big for the chest pocket and make pockets looked stuffed. Similarly, a linen pocket square in 33 cm x 33 cm - 13" x 13" is too small, because it disappears into the pocket over the course of a day.
After extensive testing, we concluded that 38cm x 38 cm - 15" x" 15" was the perfect size for our linen pocket squares.
By nature, linen is very prone to wrinkles. Once you are done wearing it, remove it from your pocket and fold it. If your pochette is too wrinkled, iron it hot with steam or a bit of water from the underside and it should look like new again, taking care not to flatten the edges.
Fine men's clothing and accessories are our passion. If you have any questions or need assistance with our pocket squares or other items, please contact us! We are always happy to help you build your wardrobe or choose a unique gift.

If Karen Santorum — mother of six, wife of GOP presidential contender Rick Santorum — had been subjected to Arizona's proposed "wrongful birth, wrongful life" legislation back in 1997, she could have very possibly died.
Doctors informed Karen back in 1996 during her 19th week of pregnancy that her unborn child had a fatal defect and would die if she attempted to carry the child to term. In an attempt to save the life of the child, Karen underwent a rare and risky surgical procedure. She herself became sick soon after the surgery, and according to her doctors, her life was in jeopardy.
As many know, the pro-life Santorums ultimately lost the child.
"If the physician came to me and said if we don't deliver your baby in one hour you will be dead, yeah, I would have to do it," Karen said to Steve Goldstein of the Philadelphia Inquirer in May 1997.
She said ultimately she would have agreed to intervention for the sake of her other children.
I am hoping that Sen. Nancy Barto and other Arizona legislators who are supporting SB1359 are merely ignorant of the potential outcomes of this proposal. I have to hope for that because otherwise I must draw the conclusion that they are interested in endangering the lives of mothers.
SB1359 encourages doctors to lie by withholding critical, life-saving information from their female patients or failing to perform necessary tests in the first place. Many of these women are already mothers who have other children they need to be there for.
If this legislation had been in effect in Pennsylvania at the time Karen was under doctors' care — doctors who specialize in high-risk births — she very likely could have been given false information or no information at all about her medical condition. There is a very real chance she would have died as a result, leaving behind a husband and children.
Are Arizona's legislators interested in mothers dying as a result of this legislation protecting doctors from malpractice suits? I sincerely hope not. I and many others around the country will be watching the outcome to see how many Arizona legislators truly care about women's health and lives.

John Redfern necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 405 diseños de 75 diseñadores freelance.
We are a group of international energy and banking professionals (centered in London but based around the world) who are focused on providing project financing and letters of credit to facilitate energy projects and to facilitate energy trades. We also dabble in some non-energy related investments (primarily building projects), but always in the developing world (very often Africa).
Government agencies, other banks, energy brokers, oil companies, oil service companies, power companies, international aid agencies etc.
Clear simple design, that is fresh yet still seems "corporate". In other words we're looking for something that provides an image of being innovative and helpful but still very solid, stable and trustworthy.
An added consideration is that we're an "oasis" in that we're a source of funds at a time when the rest of the financial landscape is a bit of a desert in terms of startup funding. That said we don't want something that is too literally an oasis... but it is an imagery you may want to keep in mind...
We'll also probably have a preference for corporate colors and at most one or two colors in the logo. So the designer needs to look for something simple, solid, relatively uncolorfu.... that looks bank-like and which could perhaps allude to the concepts of International / Global; energy; and / or Oasis.... or something completely different.
The other thing to keep in mind is that this is going to the logo for a Group of companies... so we may want to add the word "Group", "Finance" , "Energy" or "Power" etc under the name Oasis depending on the subsidiary we are talking about at the time. Just let me know if you have any other questions.

Science Scoops: A Huge Eruption on the Sun!
by Stephen James O'Meara
Last July, a massive eruption occurred on the Sun. The mega-event, captured in graphic detail by the SOHO (Solar and Heliospheric Observatory) satellite, first appeared as a fiery-looking "leg" stretching 30 Earth diameters into space. Over the next 90 minutes, it became apparent that the leg was actually only part of a larger loop of material blasting off the Sun's surface.
Prominences, as these eruptive events are called, are caused by gigantic loops of magnetic fields that emerge from below the Sun's surface. As they rise, they become filled with trapped, superhot gas that is heated to many millions of degrees. Sometimes, as the magnetic fields become twisted and unstable, the magnetic energy collapses and explosively heats vast quantities of gas, which then burst and rise off the Sun in just a few minutes or hours.
If eruptions like these are aimed at Earth, they can trigger the onset of the northern and southern lights (aurora borealis and australis, respectively), or disrupt radio communications. This particular eruption, however, was directed away from Earth.
SOHO has a prime viewing location for these spectacular events, as it sits in space at a gravitational balance point between the Sun and Earth. What's the Sun doing today?
- Which two gases are probably involved in prominences on the Sun?
- Why might prominences on the Sun affect radio communications?
- What are some similarities between reactions inside the Sun and reactions inside the Earth? Write a sentence or two to explain some of the similarities.

Sarah Grimke (1792-1873) and her sister Angelina (1805-1879) were the first women in the United States to publicly argue for the abolition of slavery. They were also strong proponents of women's rights, brought about in part, because they were women participating in the man's domain of public speaking. This paragraph is an excerpt from a long article that was published in William Lloyd Garrison's anti-slavery newspaper, The Liberator. Sarah advocates equality of the sexes including the responsibility of women to financially support their families. The piece was written in Brookline, Massachusetts while Sarah and Angelina were on a lecturing tour of the northeast in 1837. The Liberator was first published on January 1, 1831 and continued until December 29, 1865. It was the most influential anti-slavery publication in the years before the Civil War.

The new hybrids, which will be marketed under the Optimum AQUAmax brand name (previously announced as Drought Tolerant 1 hybrids) , contain a collection of native corn traits that improve water access and utilization, and the company says the hybrids showed a 5 percent yield advantage, on average, over leading commercially available competitor and other Pioneer brand hybrids.
The company says availability of these new hybrids will be limited for the 2011 growing season, and will be targeted to growers in the western Corn Belt. Expect additional product offerings, in an expanded geographical region, in the coming years.

Wishing you all an amazing week and an even better February!
With Valentine's Day being just ten days away I decided to give you two outfit ideas (next one on Friday). I strongly believe that we all have different opinions when it comes to Valentine's Day, some celebrate it and some don't. Although I don't really like celebrating Valentine's Day, if you care about someone you will show it to them for all 365 days and not just on that one (my dad always say this) and now I totally agree with him. Nevertheless, I love spending my day with my boyfriend watching a movie or just going for a coffee and that's why both of my outfits are Valentine's day appropriate, with the one being more chic and suitable for a night out and the other one being more casual/chic and suitable for a day date.
For the first Valentine's day outfit idea, I wanted something chic yet girly and romantic. Lace was the perfect choice and is there anything better than a lace dress? To make the outfit more night date appropriate, I added my black blazer and red-ish heels! I kept the accessories minimal as I wanted the attention to be drawn by the dress and got my hair in an up-do to make the outfit extra "special". Oh, and if you have a Primark in your city, make sure you go and check this dress out!
I am wearing:
Blazer - H&M
Dress - Primark
Bag - Dorothy Perkins
Heels - New Look
Watch - D&G
Necklace - Primark
Rings - Warren James & Primark

Always immaculately turned out and accessorized in the season's must-have pieces, Lucky's new Editor-In-Chief is not only a major fashion player, she's also totally funny to boot. Her frequent "Accessories of the Day" posts—typically taken in the backseat of a cab—never fail to delight.
@ttomasihill, Artistic Director, Moda Operandi
Industry favorite and style star extraordinaire, Tomasi Hill's Instagram is a mash-up of gorgeous photos from the road, loads of silly snaps, and detailed shots of accessories, materials, and dresses that make her feed fashion porn of the highest quality.
@hillarykerr, Co-Founder, WhoWhatWear.com
Here's what we know about our co-founder: you'll get fashion, for sure, but mixed with a very healthy dose of champagne, shoes, and anything punny.
@bevansburg, Style Features Director, Teen Vogue
The well-dressed, always darling editor is having more fun than anyone else in the world, and best of all: he lets you come along for the ride. Expect party pics with his A-list pals and captions that will truly make you laugh out loud.
@mrjoezee, Creative Director, ELLE
The perptually peripatetic super stylist has an always entertaining, totally cheerful feed that showcases his whirlwind schedule and front-row view.
@brittaboutaleb, Editorial Director, Byrdie.com
Byrdie's intrepid Editorial Director lives backstage during NYFW, getting details on every single major beauty look and making sweetly smart observations that most other editors miss.
@MMBVogue, Senior Market Editor, Vogue
MM is serious street style photographer bait, despite the fact that you'll never see her in a topknot or mixed prints. Much like her social media feed, she's super chic and always pared down, in other words: a total breath of fresh air.
@elanafishman, Senior Digital Editor, Lucky
Punny, pithy, and pretty, Fishman's feed always shows the quirky-cool side of life, especially during #NYFW.
@derekblasberg, Editor at Large, Harper's Bazaar &V magazines; Founder, MrBlasberg.com
When he's not attending Kate Bosworth's recent wedding in Montana or taking selfies with pal Alexa Chung, Blasberg can be found front row at every major fashion show in New York, London, Milan, and Paris. He also might attend a party or two while doing it…
@CathyHorynNYT, Fashion Critic, The New York Times
If you're a fashion news junkie—or simply want to sound like one—then following America's first lady of fashion criticism is simply a must.
@carlscrush, Fashion Market Director, Vanity Fair
With his salty commentary—"Girls who have French manicures also love neck pillows"—and over-the-top fear of bagels in any form, Carl writes all of the things you think in your head, assuming you were really witty.
@LaurieTrott, Fashion Director, WhoWhatWear.com
Our own fashion and style guru, Trott's one of the few people who can make a more out-there trend—like teddy bear coats—feel approachable and achievable by juxtaposing it with oh, say, Teddy Ruxpin.
@MeenalMistry, Fashion Director of The Wall Street Journal's Off Duty section
A fashion savant who toggles between tweets about Isabel Marant's predilection for rolling her own cigs to up-close photos of the best looks from shows and presentations, Mistry's smart feed won't disappoint.
@caradelevingne, Model
Delevingne's schedule is total chaos during Fashion Week, but the of-the-moment model never fails to enjoy the ride, as evidenced by the funny faces she posts on a nearly daily basis. (If you missed her beauty secrets story, check it out here.)
@hilaryhrhoda, Model
If you're looking for down-to-earth updates and backstage sneak peeks—plus a healthy dose of music updates—Rhoda's an excellent choice.
@joansmalls, Model
With a feed full of chic selfies, charming party pics with her equally gorgeous friends, and shots from all of the sets she works on, Smalls serves up glamour galore.
@harleyvnewton, DJ/Model
In addition to being one of the industry's most sought-after DJs, she's got a great eye and always has the prettiest photos from the best parties.
@smashleybell, Actress
Considering the online excitement that was generated when Madekwe photographed a rack of clothing she's potentially bringing to New York—lots—we have a hunch her Fashion Week feed is going to be spectacular and inspiring.
@alexa_chung, Fuse News Anchor/Style Sensation/Author of It
Her wry observations and tongue-in-cheek commentary make the always-stylish Chung's feed a pleasure to peruse.
@blaireadiebee, Founder, Atlantic-Pacific
One of our all-time favorite personal style bloggers, Eadie is the preeminent priestess of the high/low mix and her feed offers a fresh assortment of her own inspiring outfits, as well as beautifully curated images of her surroundings.
Occasionally offbeat and always inspiring, Rodarte's social media offers equal parts gorgeous editorial imagery and lots of throwback photos, including an incredibly sweet photo of Kate and Laura Mulleavy's parents on their wedding day.
Of all the designers, Jason Wu's Instagram feed feels like he is actually involved on a very regular basis—with funny cat pictures and night-on-the-town pictures to prove it.
Helmed by digitally savvy and drop-dead gorgeous Senior Vice President of Global Communications, Erika Bearman, the brand's social media curates an amazing range of images. Highlights include rarely seen shots from inside the atelier, incredible fabric and embellishment details, and some phenomenal behind-the-scenes moments with Mr. de la Renta himself.
If you've ever really wondered what a super high-powered SVP of Global Communications for a major fashion brand (or two in this case: Donna Karan and DKNY), @dkny is a must follow. Aliza Licht's ultra-observant commentary on topics like how people go about requesting show tickets will hook you in seconds flat.
The Tory Burch team creates content at a supremely high level and never fails to impress. Their social feed includes everything from what's playing in the office (it's always good) to interesting quotes from luminaries like Albert Einstein and Nelson Mandela.
The public relations powerhouse firm represents cult favorites like Altuzarra, Band of Outsiders, and Maje, and their social media gives you the esteemed (accessory shots from Narciso Rodriguez's resort collection) mixed with an interesting splash of the every day (seating maps from NYFW, for example).
They produce the bulk of #NYFW's most important shows and represent the world's biggest designers and brands. Their omnipotent presence gives them a really fresh perspective and they often break news before the media—pretty compelling stuff.
The team who represents Rodarte, Opening Ceremony, and Kenzo is always clever and unquestionably cool. How many other companies would have a social-media braid-off with us? Not many, but Black Frame sure did.
Okay, so this is a little obvious, but hear us out. You can expect it all on our social media accounts, including the best backstage beauty shots, full-length runway looks, street style stars, and more. And while we might be admittedly biased, our behind-the-scenes office shenanigans are pretty amusing, too.
New York magazine's brilliant fashion-focused blog The Cut is smart on every level. It's a must-follow for of-the-moment fashion news written in a truly clever way.
It'sVogue, silly. That's why.
Fast, clever, scoop-filled fashion news that's honest and hard-hitting when necessary, but also prone to writing things like "holy guacamole" and "oof" on Twitter, this industry-fave is a must-read for all.
Whether they're getting one of the first big interviews with Lucky's new EIC Eva Chen or Instagramming the xx backstage at a Givenchy show, founder Imran Amed has eyes on everything and never fails to inform.
A mash-up of vintage images, beauty product shots, and models, models models, beauty site Into The Gloss' social feed is clean, cool, and perfectly polished.
@GucciWestman, Global Artistic Color Director, Revlon
As one of the industry's most important makeup artists, Westman's social feeds are must-follows, especially since she always has the most amazing inspiration images around.
@OrloPita, Hairstylist
Every season, it seems like Pita is responsible for the hair at more and more NYFW shows. He also works on so many major campaigns (Oscar de la Renta), couture shows (Armani Prive), and editorials (Vogue)—it's astonishing and impressive on every level.
@patmcgrathreal, Creative Design Director, Procter & Gamble Beauty
There is no bigger force in beauty than Pat McGrath. The legendary British makeup artist does more shows, in more countries, than anyone else in the world and basically sets all the beauty trends single handedly.

Texas Rangers start their victory celebration with ginger ale instead of champagne so teammates Josh Hamilton and CJ Wilson can join in. Video here.
Wilson's tweet -- "#gingeralecelebration because josh and I are both polarized on avoiding alcohol but wanted to be in on the party. Straightedge/drug free fun" -- was touching. Good for them.

Down East Maine's enormous tidal range - a bane to mariners - one day could be a boon to the region as a renewable source of electrical energy.
A 60-kW turbine suspended 20 feet under Maine's Cobscook Bay is producing electricity to recharge a bank of batteries that supplies power to a 41-foot utility boat at the Coast Guard station in nearby Eastport.The 13-ton turbine, which looks like a paddle wheel, is in a rectangular frame 14 feet wide, 14 feet deep and 46 feet long. Called a cross-flow turbine, its composite blades - actually carefully sculpted foils - spin in the tidal current, which flows at a speed of up to 6 knots four times a day during the 18- to 20-foot tidal changes typical of the waters flowing into and out of the Bay of Fundy.
The turbine drives a fixed-magnet generator, which powers the unit's monitoring systems and recharges the battery bank - eight 12-volt batteries stored on a 20-foot skiff tied to the turbine's 60-foot barge, Energy Tide 2. Once the batteries are recharged, the skiff is towed to the Coast Guard station and swapped out for a second skiff loaded with batteries, which goes back to the barge for recharging.
Ocean Renewable Power Co. switched on the power for the Coast Guard Aug. 18.
The battery banks supply electricity to the 41-footer's heater, its battery charger, radio chargers and other systems while it is dockside, says Capt. Jim McPherson, commander of Coast Guard Sector Northern New England.
Because Ocean Renewable Power already planned to test the tidal generator in Cobscook Bay, the Coast Guard awarded the company a $100,000 grant to put it to work supplying electricity to its station. When linked to an inverter, the battery banks supply one-third to one-half of the daily shoreside power needs of the 41-footer, says John Ferland, vice president of project development for the power company.
McPherson hopes to take alternative energy to other Coast Guard stations in Maine. "We hope to have a station one day that's completely off the grid," he says. "Zero consumption."

EBay has been has been consolidating after a big move, and the bulls are looking for a good start to the New Year.
OptionMonster's tracking programs detected purchase of about 7,000 January 50 calls for $1.67. A matching number of January 46 puts was sold at the same time for $1.09.
Owning calls locks in the price where investors can buy shares, while selling puts obligates the trader to buy stock if it falls to a certain level. Combining the two strategies produces a highly leveraged position that's similar to owning equity.
In the case of Friday's position, he or she now controls the equivalent of 700,000 shares at a cost of $0.58 — less than 2 percent of their actual price.
EBay shares rose 0.78 percent to $49.01. The online auction company is up 64 percent in the last year, but has been pulling back since hitting a seven-year high one month ago.
Overall option volume in the name was more than twice the daily average, despite Friday's truncated holiday session. The bullish combination trade accounted for more than two-thirds of the total.

I ride all off road. Some trails are rugged but a lot are fire roads and paths in the hills. I purchased 3 tubes to keep on hand and thought that would last me a while. Not the case. I went through all 3 in 3 rides. They were all punctured by the smallest of stickers which are unavoidable pretty much anywhere you ride. I expected a lot more durability from a big name like Bontrager. The tubes were affordable but after losing all three and the CO2 cartridges it took to fill the replacements on the trail it proved to be of no savings. They will probably be okay on the streets as long as your town doesn't have tumble weeds or tiny stickers on the road.

Bloomington, In — Alaska and Arkansas are near the top of the alphabet in the United States. They also are at the top of the recently completed President's Challenge national fitness competition.
Alaska finished first while Arkansas was the runner-up in the challenge, which began March 20 and ended May 15. To complete the online challenge, adults 18 and over needed to do at least 30 minutes of physical activity a day for five days a week while kids ages 6 to 17 needed to be active for one hour a day for five out of seven days.
The competition was based on a participation point value (PPV) system that calculated the number of participants in each state relative to that state's population against the total population of the country. Alaska had 2,868 participants and a PPV of 320.5. Arkansas had 3,607 participants and a 219.5 PPV.
Rounding out the top 10 were Wyoming, the District of Columbia, Maryland, Wisconsin, South Dakota, North Dakota, Minnesota and Colorado. The rest of the results can be found at www.presidentschallenge.org.

The B Series Boats have a 94" beam width. The B20CC has separate yacht finish front and rear decks. These models are more economical and use our standard rub rail, cleats and fittings. The front deck still has the cushioned jump seats built into it with additional storage below. This boat has the CC Console without a front seat as standard equipment and has our custom built triple rod racks mounted on both sides of console. The console is set up for a top mount binnacle control. A 33 gas fuel tank is located inside the console with a fuel fill located on the port side of the console. The instrument panel has a fuel guage, voltmeter and a tachometer with a digital hour meter. A space is provided for a 2" engine monitor gauge. There is a Marinco stainless steel power point in the face of the dash for supplemental power for cell phones and hand held GPS instruments. A four switch electrical panel with circuit breaker overload protection, rule aerator pumps and automatic bilge pumps are standard. We have added wire conduits glassed into the floor at the hull edge for ease in pulling wires forward for trolling motors and other electrical equipment. A standard feature is a trolling wire harness and receptacle set using Ancor marine grade 8AWG tinned wire layed into the port side conduit for trolling motor.The steering wheel is a 15" stainless steel wheel coupled to a Uflex No-Feed-Back helm using the newest planetary gear helm system for solid smooth steering with no transmitted engine torque back to the wheel. The custom molded lexan windshield and stainless steel console hand-rail are standard as well.The stern and bow light poles are stored in clips under the front deck. The long rear deck has an 18 gallon aerated live well with a high speed pick up. The high speed pick up jets fresh water up to the bait well while the boat is in motion without the aerator pump running. The helm seat is a 76 Qt. insulated cooler with a seat cushion and has a swing-back back rest. An excellent option is to mount a 72 Qt. igloo cooler and cushion in front of the CC console.
