Disclosure: If you buy something from the links provided I might get a few cents. So thanks for that!
I have been craving sushi for WEEKS now, but if you follow the blog regularly you may remember me asking for adulting advice. A good friend was able to provide me with an easy-to-use google sheet to help with budgeting. This made me realize that I need to cut back on how much I spend on food. Therefore, I decided to make myself some sushi.
This post is less of a recipe and more of a tutorial for how to put your sushi together. I decided to forgo using a bamboo mat because most people don't have those laying around their house. However, if you do have a bamboo mat, you should totally use it! It helps make your rolls even and round.
I decided to start with California rolls because they're easy to make, inexpensive, and most people will like them. You can use almost any vegetables in your sushi and easy/cheaper proteins to use are crab, shrimp, salmon, and egg. I don't know much about raw fish (because it makes me nervous) so you'll have to find that info somewhere else.
I'll be supplying more tips if you read, but here's a video in case that works better for you! Also, because I enjoy making videos.
1. Gather Your Supplies
- Sushi Rice
- Wax Paper
- Cutting Board
- Sharp Knife
- Sushi Nori (roasted seaweed)
- Spoon
- Avocado
- Cucumber (I prefer the tiny ones)
- Crab or imitation crab meat
- Rice Vinegar
- Salt
- Sugar
- Cooking Spray
2. Cut Your Cucumber into Thin Strips
If using a large cucumber, you'll want to remove the seeds. You can really use any type of veggies you want though!
3. Open your avocado and slice it into small strips.
Make a single slice the entire way around the fruit. Twist your two ends in opposite directions, then use a spoon to scoop the avocado out of its shell. Then, slice your avocado in strips.
4. Spread your sushi rice in a thin layer over your sushi nori (seaweed) sheet.
Bonus info time!
- Sushi rice is a little bit different than white rice because it's a shorter grain AND more sticky. However, if you don't have sushi rice in your house, white rice will suffice. (I haven't tried brown rice though so I can't speak to that.)
- If you want to season your rice: Add 3 tablespoons of unseasoned rice vinegar with 1/4 tsp of salt and 1/4 tsp of sugar dissolved into it to approximately 3 cups of rice.
5. Once you've spread rice all over one side of your nori, pick it up, place the wax paper on the rice side, and flip!
I personally think that sushi tastes better inside out (meaning with the rice on the outside), but if you like having the nori on the outside you can just skip this step!
6. Place your fillings in flat line on the nori about 1 inch from the end.
You won't want to over-stuff or else the next step will be tricky.
For california rolls add your avocado, cucumber, and crab.
7. Carefully roll away from you a little bit at a time.
Each time you roll you'll want to give each part a good squeeze to help the rice stick.
8. Use a sharp knife to slice your roll into bite-sized pieces.
Bonus: If your knife keeps getting stuck to the rice, give it a little spray with cooking oil OR dip it in water.
9. Enjoy!
Some good additions include soy sauce for dipping, topping with sesame seeds, or place a little dollop of yum yum sauce on top!
What are your favorite sushi fillings and flavors? Let me know in the comments below!

Barracks of the Ministry of Communication and Transportation. Oka River
The Oka River is a major western tributary of the Volga, which it enters at the city of Nizhnii Novgorod. The Oka is fed by the Moscow River, which joins it just south of Kolomna. This 1912 view is set within a flood plain along the river near Beloomut (Moscow Oblast), where extensive hydraulic works were under construction. In the foreground is a floating wooden barracks for transportation personnel. A small passenger boat is visible on the left. On the other side of the river (the left bank) three churches with bell towers rise in the background, including one that appears to be the Church of the Resurrection in Liubichi. Because of the dearth of good roads, river networks were critical for transportation in Russia since the early medieval period and they remained so in the 20th century. The image is by Russian photographer Sergei Mikhailovich Prokudin-Gorskii (1863–1944), who used a special color photography process to create a visual record of the Russian Empire in the early 20th century. Some of Prokudin-Gorskii's photographs date from about 1905, but the bulk of his work is from between 1909 and 1915, when, with the support of Tsar Nicholas II and the Ministry of Transportation, he undertook extended trips through many parts of the empire.
Title in Original Language
Барак Министерства Путей Сообщения. Река Ока
Additional Subjects
Type of Item
Physical Description
Glass negative (presented as a digital color composite)
- Prokudin-Gorskii's photographic work survives primarily in two forms: 1,901 black-and-white triple-frame glass plate negatives, made with color separation filters, which Prokudin-Gorskii used to make color prints and lantern slides; and 12 albums of sepia-tone prints, made from the glass negatives, which Prokudin-Gorskii compiled as a record of his travels and studies. The Library of Congress purchased the glass plate negatives and the albums from the Prokudin-Gorskii family in 1948. In 2004, the Library of Congress had digital color composites made from all the surviving glass negatives using a software algorithm to automatically align the color components. As with most historical photographs, title and subject identifications are corrected and enhanced through new research. Current information on the collection is at http://www.loc.gov/pictures/collection/prok/.

Available for dispatch from 4 December (orders with this product included will be dispatched on 4 December or for Christmas if selected).
Selected by Rolf Beeler, produced by legendary cheesemaker Willi Schmid. The Jersey Blue is Willi Schmid's most decorated product: On two consecutive occasions, in 2010 and 2012, it won the "Best of Show" at the "World's Jersey Cheese Awards". The Jersey Blue undoubtedly proves the immense talent of its creator. Willi uses two different Italian moulds. He doesn't reveal which ones, we only know Gorgonzola mould is not part of it. Natural calf rennet is used.
The Jersey Blue is specially appealing cut when you see the fine light blue to dark green veins that grow into the core from the outside. The buttery feel of the Jersey milk coats the palate and then the powerful flavours of the mould burst out. It has an unbelievable long finish, a masterpiece indeed.
The Jersey Blue can be enjoyed young but ages well. When it starts to dry out the flavours get sharper.
Tip: Try it with our Birehong Pear Reduction – devine!
Note: If you choose '1.5 kg' as size you will be sent a full wheel. This cheese looks spectacular on any cheese board but it looks even better in a full wheel!
This cheese will be wrapped in aluminium foil to guarantee maximum freshness. Best before will be 21 days from date of packaging.
How we wrap your cheese
Freshness of your cheese is important to us. That's why – unless noted differently in the description – we package all of our cheese in vacuum bags to help minimize travel impacts. However, we understand that some of you prefer cheese being wrapped in cheese wrap. This option is available to you for a small fee (it takes more time to package the cheese this way, that's why we charge you a little bit more). Unless specifically noted in the description, all cheese will generally have a best before date of at least 14 days, vacuum packed cheese generally about 2 months. Please note that with cheese this is often only a guidance date and does not necessarily mean the cheese will be of lesser quality beyond that date. In fact many soft(er) cheeses are best kept close to or until after that date for maximum ripeness.
How the cheese gets to you
All Alpine Express cheese are shipped in environmentally friendlier, insulated cardboard boxes. The cheese is bolstered with recycled packing paper & kept cold with an food grade ice gel pack. It is shipped via Australia Post's Express Post service. Please check if your delivery postcode is part of it, or see Australia Post's Express Delivery Estimator (origin is 'Brisbane Metro'). Customers residing in the Brisbane Metro area can also arrange a free pick-up from our prep kitchen at The Small Crop, Wynnum or choose the local courier service in which case dispatch and delivery will be on Thursdays (through same day delivery).
Unless noted otherwise, all Cheese Boxes are sent on Wednesdays with an order cut-off time at 9am (Sydney time) that day. You will get a tracking number to follow your parcel's progress.

CHICAGO, May 22 — Cleversafe Inc., developer of Dispersed Storage software, today announced that Jonathan Zakin will lead the company as its new president and chief executive officer. Founder and former CEO, S. Christopher Gladwin will continue with Cleversafe as the company's chief technology officer (CTO) and chairman of the board.
Zakin, a one-time Cleversafe investor who has served on the company's Board of Directors since its formation, was previously a partner in Batterson, Cross, Zakin, L.L.C., an early stage venture capital firm, and owns Seaview Holdings L.L.C., an investment entity that actively invests in early-stage companies. He was chief executive officer and chairman of the Board of Directors at wireless broadband company Proxim Corp. Prior to Proxim, Zakin spent nine years with U.S. Robotics Inc., a leader in data communications equipment, as a director, and in various senior management positions.
"We have asked Jon to take a more active role in Cleversafe to help grow our company into a data storage market leader," said Chris Gladwin, chairman of Cleversafe. "He has an impressive business track record in growing small companies, such as US Robotics, into large market leaders creating billions of dollars in value. The huge opportunity ahead of Cleversafe merits the high level of expertise that Jon has demonstrated throughout his career."
Current approaches to storage backup and archiving rely on multiple copies, replication and synchronization technologies, which compromise security, add complexity and increase costs. Cleversafe's Dispersed Storage software divides data into "slices" using mathematical algorithms and disperses them, via secure Internet connections, to multiple storage locations. An individual slice contains too little information to be useful on its own, but any majority of the slices can be used to perfectly recreate all the original data.

The day had finally come — our first club event as an official student group! We kicked off fall quarter with a short info session in Parkes Hall, followed by a Chopped-style cooking social for our potential members to get familiar with the kitchen and with each other.
We have to admit it was daunting to supervise over 30 students in the kitchen, but it was worth every minute. Everyone made great use of the pantry and wow'd us with their beautifully delicious dishes! Take a look below at their creations!
Cookology wants to extend a special thanks to everyone who attended the event and to Northwestern Dining for providing us with the pantry and making all of this possible. We're looking forward to seeing our members' skills grow even stronger with the events we have planned for the rest of the quarter!

New County Public Works Building on shaky ground
"Have you read the FEMA report?" was a question posed by former Owatonna Ag teacher and soils specialist, Brian Kosel, at a special meeting held by the Steele County Board of Commissioners March 7.
The County Board Room was packed and you could hear a steady hum of hushed conversations going on at several times during the meeting. When Kosel asked that question and then informed the entire room that the building site was unbuildable, you could have heard a pin drop.
The building site in which the county has purchased and designated for the new Public Works Complex has cost over $3 million to date. Public Works Director and County Engineer, Anita Benson was as shocked as everyone else in the building when Kosel's comment came forth.
"This is the first I've heard anything like that," Benson said. When asked what the designated amount was for the sand and gravel fill that is docketed to be hauled into the site, she commented that $300,000 was set aside for that.
"I told Commisioner (James) Brady the day before that I was going to stand up at the meeting and divulge this information," Kosel said. "He told me that I could say whatever I wanted, but that it was a done deal."
When Kosel asked if any of the commissioners had read the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) report, they indicated that they had not. There was no questioning Kosel or asking him to further explain his findings.
Kosel is an expert in his field of agriculture, having farmed and taught Ag classes at Owatonna for 42 years. He has five degrees in Ag sciences and an M.A. in education and yet, there was no questioning Kosel or asking him to further explain his findings.
Commissioner Rick Gnemi has gone on the record in support of scrubbing the current building site and moving forward to examine the possibility of refurbishing another building. When asked for a response to Kosel's comment and whether the site is buildable, he pointed to Benson and said, "ask them."
As the commissioners met at a roundtable work session to review the plans for the proposed structure, commissioners were weary of the cost analysis proposal that was presented to them by Deb Brandwick of Oertel Architects and county project manager Scott Quiring. Many questions were asked about the feasibility of reducing the building size, changing its dimensions and determining if the building was adequate or excessive in respect to the needs of the employees.
It was brought up, that, to date, the county had paid out over $788 thousand for just the architectural plans alone. And still, there is no agreed upon building, with revision costs that could total as much as $150,000.
As for actual building costs, Quiring drew many questions when he announced that the building would cost between $130 and $140 per square foot. That is not counting the $3+ million that is already into the site with much more projected.
Gnemi led the charge with a pointed scenario and a valid question on cost. "Today we had the school district come speak to us at the Lions Club," Gnemi said. "They are doing 150 thousand square feet. And it is $50 per square foot." (Total cost of the school district project would be $7.5 million)
"So, I'm seeing a building like this at 40,000 square feet, bid at $100 should be $4 million. How close are we to $4 million on this. Has anyone given any kind of thought or projection for this building right here?
A number that should have been readily available sent Brandwick scrambling for a number while muttering something about an old estimate.
"Um, there is an old estimate," Brandwick said, "and these (numbers) have not been verified, this is 2 years old. It was $7.6 million and that included the site work. That estimate is going to have to be updated, because it was a 2-year-old number and it was not including splitting the project into two phases."
After that statement, Commissioner Greg Krueger quickly spoke forth to Brandwick. "Your best guess is what we're looking for here so we can get our head around this whole project," Krueger said pointedly. "before we invest all the extra money into the mechanical and the electrical and all that sort of stuff.
"Your best guess on a 40 thousand square foot building of this magnitude. Are we in the $4 million range, are we in the $5 million range, are we in the $10 million range?"
Quiring at that point threw out his cost per square foot figures and following a question from Gnemi asking why the big difference in cost between this building and the school district project, Quiring stated, "I would have to get into the minutia of what they are doing with that 150 square feet. I am going by my market experience."
The unsettling news caused the commissioners to take a fresh look at the project and to question costs. Commissioner Jim Abbe had already looked at a similar building and advised other commissioners to do the same within the coming weeks before they locked in the approval of the proposed plan.
Brandwick stated that she could find similar buildings that they constructed in the same financial frame-work as to what Owatonna has to spend. Abbe stated that it was also prudent for the commissioners to also explore other options and buildings done by other architectural firms.
The Steele County Board's next scheduled meeting will be tonight at 5 p.m. in the Administration building. At that point, commissioners will have researched the financial differences between the building cost estimates and will look at other facilities.
In a related story, Kosel met with Rep. John Petersburg, Minnesota House of Representatives, last Friday. Kosel called to attention concern about the commissioners having to go back and ask for more funding on the project.
"No,"said Petersburg. "That (more finances) will not be given and I assure you that I will be speaking to the County Commissioners concerning these matters."

80's action movie legend Dolph Lundgren has joined DC's upcoming Aquaman.
The Expendables star will play villain King Nereus of aquatic kingdom Xebel (via The Hollywood Reporter) who – you guessed it – wants to kill Aquaman (Jason Momoa).
The movie is a welcome return for Lundgren, who made his name as Russian boxer Ivan Drago in 1985's Rocky IV.
He went on to star as He-Man in 1987's The Masters of the Universe, and played Marvel icon Frank Castle a few years later in The Punisher.
Lundgren was less prolific in the 1990s and 2000s, but made a comeback in 2010's The Expendables alongside the likes of Sylvester Stallone and Jason Statham.
Aquaman is set to star Momoa as the titular DC character, alongside Amber Heard as love interest Mera.
On top of that, Star Wars' Temuera Morrison will play his dad, Patrick Wilson will take on the role of baddie Orm and Willem Dafoe will be Aquaman's advisor Dr. Vulko.
It was also confirmed in the last few weeks that the James Wan-directed movie has bagged none other than Nicole Kidman to play the role of Aquaman's mother, Queen Atlanna.
Opening up about doing the movie, she said: "The reason why I love [Aquaman] is James Wan is an Australian, and I've followed his career since he started.
"He's a really good friend of mine, and he offered to let me play Queen Atlanna.
"As soon as he said I could wear mother-of-pearl and be a mermaid warrior, I said, 'I'm done! Please! If there is one thing I have to do in my life, I have to be that!' Because you've got to have some fun."
It emerged last month that the movie's release date had been pushed back two months, now set for release on December 21, 2018.

In order to keep your hair healthy and clean, it requires maintenance and proper care. John Casablancas Institute's Hair Program graduates reveal the secrets to maintaining beautiful and healthy hair:
Melissa McKenna / @hairbymelissamckenna
The best advice I could give to keeping your hair healthy would be to get regular trims, wash your hair with salon quality products and use more heat-less styles like braids and updos!
Jaden Sware-Stevenson / @beautyby.jaden
The most important rule for girls with blonde hair is, don't throw your hair up in a wet ponytail! It's a sure shot way to break fragile strands. I'd recommend investing in a wet brush which detangles wet hair gently. At my workplace, High Fidelity Hair, we mostly use Goldwell products and I love the KMS moist repair line.
They even have an anti-breakage spray to keep your hair strong, which you can layer under their revival cream for smooth and healthy locks. It's tempting to opt for cheaper drug store products, but you get what you pay for when using Goldwell products.
Most drug store shampoos strip the healthy protective oils from your hair and the drug store conditioners coat it with silicone or wax, leaving it looking smooth with a lot of build-ups, which will weigh your hair down and damage your hair color.
I can't stress enough how important a heat protector is for people who heat style their hair often. I hear from a lot of clients that they apply their hair oils or serums before they flat iron their hair. Always apply your oils after you flat iron, to smooth out the look and to protect your hair from environmental damage through the day. If you use the oil and run a 400-degree flat iron over your hair, you're basically deep frying it!
Brittany Ostash / @hair.by.britt
For me, maintaining healthy hair is getting regular haircuts, even if they are only little trims. Using leave-in condition or oils in your hair right after a good wash is also something you can do to keep your hair healthy.
Having a heat protectant in your hair before styling it is always key. I use Axis Mor Oil right after I wash my hair before brushing or blow-drying!
Jenna Johnson / @blondeandbalyage
My tip to maintaining healthy color treated hair, especially blondes, is protein and moisture! The biggest downfall of lifting hair is losing at the nutrients, so as a stylist, I also ensure that my clients have at home treatments to keep the integrity of your hair.
My go-to products include Redken Extreme Cat (protein treatment) and the EVO Great Hydrator (moisture mask).
Jo Vandenberg-Clark / @_queenculture
In order to keep your hair healthy, I would recommend using healthy hair products such as hair masks, heat protectant and go in for regular trims. My favorite products to date are definitely from AG Hair or Redken.
The AG line has a great heat protectant called firewall and it helps keep your hair healthy, also the entire line smells amazing! I also suggest using Redken Anti-Snap for damaged/distressed hair.
Hair Stylists and Colour Technicians are sought out in some of the most exciting and fast-paced industries in the world including film, fashion, TV and photography. The Hair Art Design Program at JCI is the only accredited hair school in BC approved for a 520-hour curriculum. The program is 20 hours per week and offers the option of morning, afternoon, evening or weekend classes so that students can work at their current jobs while retraining for a new career. Our faculty is comprised of top working professionals and guest instructors whose focus is on the future of hair. This is a modern program providing a strong foundation of cutting and colouring techniques.

Sometimes when I'm surrounded by the darkness that is my Depression and PTSD, I find myself singing Fort Minor's song "Where'd you go" and internalizing it to my situation. Living with mental health issues sometimes feels like I'm a completely different person. It has me questioning if I'll ever completely find myself, who I was before the suffering. When I play this song…I'm think about one person, me; the past, present and future me…in the hopes of rediscovering myself.
Where'd you go?
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone.
She said "Some days I feel like sh%t,
Some days I wanna quit, and just be normal for a bit,"
I don't understand why you have to always be gone,
I get along but the trips always feel so long,
And, I find myself trying to stay by the phone,
'Cause your voice always helps me to not feel so alone,
But I feel like an idiot, workin' my day around the call,
But when I pick up I don't have much to say,
So, I want you to know it's a little f&@%ed up,
That I'm stuck here waitin', at times debatin',
Tellin' you that I've had it with you and your career,
Me and the rest of the family here singing "Where'd you go?"
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone.
Where'd you go?
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone,
Please come back home…
Some days are better than others and on the more difficult days, I now have the strength to think, "I'm not myself today, but that's ok!" In retrospect, I definitely would not have been able to say that during the last couple of years. I thank God for the support and progress I've been making since last year, before my diagnosis.
What's changed? Well first of all, I'm no longer suffering in silence. It's out there. Talking about it helps. Writing about it helps. With every day that goes by, the weight of the stigma I had placed on myself due to my PTSD and Depression dissipates.
Secondly, I've grown accustomed to seeing my psychologist on a regular basis. To borrow a term from a friend, I love going to see my paid friend. Some visits I have lots to talk about and sometimes I don't. Regardless it feels good to talk; to have my feelings reflected back to me. Therapy is a safe space for me to self-assess and heal.
Thirdly, can be summed up in one word, medication. I've recently decided to take medication for my symptoms again. This wasn't an easy decision. After a year of making progress, I often found myself being consumed with the familiar symptoms of my PTSD and Depression. I was reluctant to get back on medication because it felt like a step backwards for me. It felt as though I had failed myself and my family. After many discussions with my wife and many nights of self-assessment, I finally got the courage to pick up the phone and talk to my doctor. Within a day I was back on my medication and….wow what a difference. The edge I was always feeling has left. I know medication is not the lone solution to my mental health issues. However, it is an important tool in my personal journey towards healing.
I feel like a tree shedding its leaves before winter in order to grow more resilient to the harsh & beautiful realities of life.
Thanks for listening,
Your Bearded Cop

It's not been a very encouraging week in the world, has it? I was up in Manchester on a fundraising training course when the indescribably awful bombs blew up in Boston, and lots of my classmates there (being fundraisers) knew people running the London Marathon this weekend. So there was a lot of uncertainty and anxiety.
But the London Marathon is going ahead anyway, this Sunday. The security forces and police have done a ton of extra work. Prince Harry is coming. And Mo Farah is running. And so are about 37,500 other people.
Wilson Kipsang, the defending champion, has declared that he is going to have no fear during the race; that "we are going to run feeling free".
I love that. I love the refusal to be scared, and the deciding to live that out, by actually turning up and actually running. Go people.

No, not some cynical self-penned tune, but one from the first O'Farrell's Pocket Companion. (Where, given the times, the last word is printed as "Wh_re".)
He notes that the tune should be played "slow" and so I guess that this is probably an air to a popular song of the times. Despite some "jiggy" passages (e.g. the opening bars of the 3rd part), its dottedness would suggest that it's not a dnace tune. (However, I stand to be corrected on this if anyone has any further info to add …)
Anyway… I'll admit that I was drawn to this tune on account of its title. I'm reminded of the health advice on fag packets which says "Smoking is highly addictive - don't start". Well, by the time you're down the local corner shop handing over good cash, the sound advice is probably way too late! And so for some who've already made a disastrous matrimonial pact, the cautionary tone of this tune's title will ring true, but the timing will cause them to gnash their teeth…
I know it's not the done thing merely to copy a tune note for note from a source. However, as a basic setting of the tune, O'Farrell's dots are hard to beat. And so I haven't presumed to mess about with them!
I usually find tunes in "C" or "Amin" to be a right pain. F natural is a note that we play so rarely, I have to concentrate to make sure that I don't opt for the F sharp instead. And yet I find that this tune isn't quite as troublesome as some …
Finally … perhaps this tune is an "antidote" to the slide "I'd Rather Be Married Than Left"? 🙂
Two _
In Wh_ _re, in my copy anyway.
Kind of superfluous, that fourth part. I like this tune too, because of the title, but I'd not play the fourth part, I don't think. Then again, I all 6 of O'Farrell's parts of his Welcome to Limerick.
…I *play* all of O'Farrell's…
An Phis Fhliuch
An Phis Fhliuch
is this related to the same mother?
Nice sentiment - though I can't see it apearing on any CD covers too soon. Or in teaching sessions, or on the CCE site or…..
Mind you it's quirky enough to warrent learning as a "party piece" if only to set some on edge!!
Ahh I recognise it now - it's a song I used to sing. Polyglot or micro.
Some of the top notes are wrong (on the wav)
"Már fágím mé sud mara tá sé." - But we'll leave THAT alone.
"I am a bold fellow that oftentimes roamed,
in Castlewest I'm very well known.
In Newcastleconnor I spent many's the hour
with Kitty and Judy and Mary."
The "rogue" goes on to explain that his parents "rebuke me, for being such a rake" but he'd rather be in the arms of his bou then comes the line as Gaeilge - Ach or Már -fágím mé sud/sin mara tá sé." Blás dependant!!
The towns are interchangable as are indeed the ladies names. I haven't heard it sung (except in my head) for over 30yrs so I've no discography.
I think the very last part is a different tune mixed in - but very nice.
Interesting! I came on just to add that I'd just discovered this tune in the tunes of the munster pipers (aka the goodman collection) as "let's leave that be" or "fagbhamaoid sud mar ata se" (with loads of fadas I can't easily write).
I think you may be correct, except the o'farrell collection is much older than the goodman.
Swisspiper, O'Farrell published a 6 part tune as O'Farrell's Welcome to Limerick. It's very nearly the same today as it was then, except the 6th part has been lost and often (but thankfully not always) the 2nd and 5th part are played identically. There are some other minor things, too. Yes it's often known by that name, which has a funny story that hardly anyone knows either. Ah well, such is life.
Writing Fadás
Press Alt Gr as you press on any vowel and áéíóú
Shift + Alt Gr as you press on any vowel and ÁÉÍÓÚ
Ach 'is fághamíd sud mara tá sé.
ps I learnt it of a guy that played at Noah's wake.
What's Gr?
Is that a mac key?
The first two bits are the Gaelic "Idir Aird Mhór is Eochaill" (Between Ardmore and Youghal) which is a beautiful lively yet downbeat song (just listen to Danú's take on it)
the last two bits are either heavy variations or additions to the original Gaelic tune which to my ear sounds like the Old Geese in the Bog
If Ever I Marry, I Am A Son Of A Whore, X:3
Here is my take of the Ulaid 'as-played' version on their CD. They play four parts that are similar (but not identical) to the original and then two parts of their own - six parts in all!

Reimbursement for Medicare Part B Drugs
ASRS is advocating for:
- Fair and adequate reimbursement for Part B drugs
- Removal of the cost of Part B drugs from Physician Compare and other value/comparison tools until apples to apples comparisons can be made
Fair Reimbursement for Part B Drugs Should not Penalize Physicians or Reduce Patient Access
As pressure builds among patients, Congress and the Administration to reign in the cost of prescription drugs under the Medicare Program, physicians continue to get caught in the crossfire. Instead of regulating drug prices, policymakers continue to take aim at Part B reimbursement with proposals to change the payment formula. ASRS is actively advocating to ensure fair reimbursement for Part B drugs for ASRS members thereby preserving patients access to sight- saving drugs administered by retina specialists.
Medicare Part B covers routine medications provided in a physician office or administered in an outpatient setting. Medicare reimburses physicians the average sales price (ASP) of the drug plus an additional 6%. This "add-on" percentage is intended to cover costs associated with procuring, storing, administering, tracking, and obtaining reimbursement for Part B drugs and does not constitute profit. Unfortunately, since Congress instituted across-the-board budget sequestration cuts in 2013, the "add-on" is currently only 4.2%. According to a 2016 ASRS study conducted by Quorum [link], many members, particularly those in small practices and in rural settings, struggle to cover these costs.
ASRS actively opposes policies that would make it more difficult for physicians to administer Part B drugs. In order for physicians to be able to continue to purchase Part B drugs on behalf of their patients, the payment rate must at least cover all overhead costs. If not, patients will be forced to travel to the more expensive hospital outpatient departments to receive monthly treatments.
Base Payment Model on Real-World Cost Data
As proposals emerge for alternative payment structures, the ASRS continues to call for real-world cost data to provide an accurate framework on which to build a truly successful payment model. ASRS presented its Quorum study data (see appendix) to CMS and successfully derailed, along with the AMA and various medical specialties, a proposed CMS demonstration project that would have further cut reimbursement. The Society will continue to support data driven approaches with appropriate incentives to ensure the best clinical care using the most effective drugs. A successful alternative payment system must:
- Provide providers incentive to maximize health outcomes and value while reducing costs;
- Ensure that payment policies do not compromise quality of care or limit patients' treatment options;
- Assess the impact of such payment policies on low-income patients; and
- Implement a sufficiently transparent and adequate exceptions process to allow providers to prescribe more-expensive products when medically necessary.
Cost Comparisons Must be Accurate or Eliminated
Since clinical response in individual patients varies among the 3 most commonly used Part B drugs for retinal diseases (i.e., anti-VEGF agents), ASRS opposes cost comparison policies that provide incentives to prescribe the lowest cost drugs without regard for the most appropriate treatment and patient preferences. Retina specialists must be able to utilize clinical judgment and consider the patient's response to a particular drug when selecting the best course of therapy even if that causes them to prescribe the more expensive FDA approved drug. Until these incentives are accounted for or apples to apples comparisons can be made, ASRS is opposed including costs of Part B drugs in any cost assessment or comparison such as Physician Compare.
Retina specialists who buy and bill CMS for expensive injectable medications appear to spend more than retina specialists in academic settings where the reimbursement for drugs is returned to the hospital that purchased the drug even though the physicians may prescribe and administer the same amount. Therefore, meaningful costs comparisons among retina specialists cannot be made. Moreover, Physician Compare does not provide granularity at the subspecialist level to distinguish all retina specialists from ophthalmologists.
There must be appropriate peer comparisons, including at the specialty and subspecialty levels, of services provided and billed, to assess individual provider quality and cost prior to publishing such comparisons for patients. Absent apples to apples comparisons, the data is not truly meaningful to patients and in fact, may be harmful, not only for the physicians, but also for patients who are forced to make decisions that are based upon inaccurate or meaningless data.

In this posting, you'll www.ballaronyc.com get a collection of valuable web design recommendations that will help your WordPress web-site and the customer projects you work on in 2018 achieve success – if you want to put into practice them or perhaps ignore them in your quest for originality.
When it comes to creating websites, if for yourself or perhaps for your clients, success doesn't come convenient. To increase the productivity and keep your outcome looking fresh and contemporary, not to mention improved for search engines like yahoo and conversion rates, it's necessary that youre always learning as many fresh tips and techniques as is feasible. So , shall we explore one or two different web site design tips which can help you in 2018.
1 ) Use Style Guides
Style guides happen to be popular inside the publishing environment. They can appear in the form of large books or perhaps documents that media periodicals follow to maintain uniform variations throughout the content. This could include from how states and countries are branded to how numbers happen to be written. Web-site designers can generate their own design guides to guarantee the sites that they build possess uniform variations throughout. This is especially useful for designers who collaborate with other self employed. A well crafted style guidebook can help continue a despropósito team on the same page.
The style guide Yahoo produced due to the own Material Design is an excellent example of a comprehensive, well-written style guide. Should you be looking for a even more generic style guide or perhaps set of guidelines to apply to your work, be sure to check out our guide to the primary typography literature for 2018.
2 . Phase Out Sidebars
Sidebars create clutter. These folks were meant to improve the usability of your site by displaying extra navigational elements, such as links to the latest posts and popular content material. Over time, it's fair to they've recently been hijacked simply by savvy internet marketers looking for a approach to display email optin forms and other advertising content this does not always provide much for the user knowledge. While in theory sidebars containing links and other useful content material should improve the user encounter, in reality, not many site visitors actually use them, in least regarding to heatmap tests executed by ConversionXL. Therefore , compromising your site's design for a sidebar for advertising purposes might not deliver the results you want. Try phasing sidebars in your patterns, especially if a web site doesn't require one. Choose your content the most important element on a page by making use of designs that force readers to focus on this. If the considered abandoning sidebars altogether tones a bit intense, look for a look that gives you the option of publishing full-width content, alongside classical layouts that feature an associated sidebar. You can perform a lot with the humble WordPress sidebar and one webdesign tip to get 2016 is to get smarter with the way you will do or do not use them.
Three. Start The Designs Offscreen
Do you develop code and styles on the screen at an instant rate, with out a care of just how things should turn out as you know you'll modify and clean things up at a later point? If so , why not consider using a new methodology in 2016. Instead of getting right in and foreseeing things away as you go, obtain turn to the trusty pencil and standard paper or use a whiteboard to plan an overall site layout offscreen first. Use this way of get a thought of where you want specific elements to continue, much like how an architect uses floor ideas to storyline out exactly where windows, entrance doors, and areas should go. If perhaps adopting a pen and paper doesn't appeal, there are several great wireframing and prototyping web design tools out there that will help you quickly get your tips out of the head, prior to this, in your development environment.
4. Use Much larger Font Sizes
Big typography isn't a new trend or aspect of design and style, but it could be still a fantastic practice to adhere to in 2016. This is because it includes the power to seize the reader's attention and places major on your articles. Readability on smaller screens, such as mobile devices, has played a huge purpose in this trend's rising level of popularity, but it also fits in nicely along with the ever-popular smart and flat design fashion. One web development tip to get 2016 should be to try comprising larger font sizes in your designs, like a minimum font size of 18 points with respect to body text message, where it makes sense. This includes virtually any text you set in header images or use the text over a homepage when you use a large, hero image. Make absolutely certain you concentrate on choosing a web-friendly typeface that scales very well, rather than painful about which usually size to decide on.
5. Build More Space
Too much muddle can distract readers and make a site appear overly complicated. That's one answer why phasing out sidebars highly recommended. However , you should also try creating more space usually rather than aiming to include as many elements as possible on a site. Again, it can help a reader focus on what's important at the time of you the chance to build better-looking designs. This kind of space is usually referred to as "whitespace" or "negative space, ". However , this space doesn't always must be white, especially if you're creating a website that uses large images on its homepage and headers. Minimize the amount of mess in your designs and include more room around and between factors to help lead your users through your web page. Whitespace makes it clear where a reader's focus should be concentrated.
6. Reactive Design is not Optional
Cellular device usage continues to grow, in particular when it comes to getting at websites. Because of this it's do not been essential to ensure your websites will be mobile-friendly. Hence one major web design tip for 2016 is to completely commit to reactive design. In the past, this easily meant checking off the receptive design box on your to-do list. Yet , as this technology grows, you need to start thinking about more than just liquid layouts. Think mobile enhanced images, if hamburger food selection are the correct choice, and a lot more. For 2016, you might actually want to embrace the idea of mobile-first website creation.
7. Take full advantage of Google's Materials Design
Google ramped in the use of the Material Design philosophy in 2014, and digital designers are generally quick to follow along with suit. When you have embraced the flat web site design trend, afterward it's most likely time for you to jump on the Material Style bandwagon boost your style intended for 2016. The core principles of this website development framework contain using tiers to create fashionable shadows alongside the sides of factors, helping to add some much-needed design and interesting depth to the little flat design trend. If you wish to get started, there are some great, cost-free Material Design UI kits around that can help get you up to speed.
8. Expand and Reevaluate Your Toolkit
Are available tasks in the workflow you really feel could be more effective or at least, more fun? Then one web design tips which can help you out is to do a little research and find out if there are any fresh tools that better meet your needs. Just as new web design guidelines are rising all the time, so too are new web design tools. From awesome new no cost apps like Pixate, through to updates to industry faves like the Firebrick CC software for web-site designers, it's often worth keeping an eye ball out for something new that could improve your work and enjoyment levels.
9. Simplify Navigation
Putting tons of links in your routing menu, sidebar, blog posts, as well as the homepage may seem just like a great way to hold people in your site, but it really can actually go the various other way. Challenging navigation systems produce way too many options for people, so much so that they might wish to leave your site altogether. Inserting fewer products in your sat nav menus and eliminating sidebars are great solutions to cut down on the number of clutter that exists on your site. This can allow you to build better-looking patterns without limiting user experience or alteration rate search engine optimization.
10. Up Your Imagery Game
Upgrading the quality of the images you utilize in your do the job is a great website development tip just for elevating your projects. Instead of merely using the no cost images that everyone else comes with access to, it may be time to buy a premium stock image program. The next level up could be to create or returns your own images from the beginning, whether honestly, that is going out and taking top quality photographs, illustrating them your self, or a combination of the two. Merging typography along with your chosen images can be an alternative effective method to make them more main and assist you in delivering the message. Selecting beautiful images for your website is a successful way to assist you in getting your goals and help your content stay ahead of the market.
11. Phase Out Slider
The decision among whether or not to work with sliders may be a highly-debated subject matter. However , normally, they should really be phased out in 2016, specifically if you want to diminish the amount of distractions on your internet site and make it simpler for users to find their very own way about. Sliders would not do both of those factors. They're very similar to sidebars. They will create a lot of00 options for your visitors to select from, and very few people actually utilize them. If it has your home page you're concerned about, opt for a significant header space that uses a unique, well-crafted static design that obviously defines your brand of regarding your client. Again, play around with big typography to make stationary images more visually attractive and formulate better web page designs which make sliders unnecessary.
12. Master A/B Assessment
A lot of these web site design tips happen to be general suggestions based on current and forthcoming trends inside the digital space. However , there are no assure they'll help your site. You also shouldn't automatically feel required to use or perhaps forego a number of design components simply because the new current fad or today an unpopular style. A/B testing may be a skill you can learn to find out regardless of whether your styles are working or not. You may or the client desire to use a slider or a active sidebar and don't prefer to give in to the conventional wisdom that areas they're outdated and unsuccessful. A/B tests is a great way to apply a new design and style and test out its success yourself. Divide testing is also an effective way to negotiate short-cuts between you and your clients, thanks to the evidence that will help back up your recommendations.
Final Thoughts on Web Design and style Tip with respect to 2018: Carrying on to learn and pick up fresh web design guidelines, no matter how much experience you may have, is one of the most significant things you can do to obtain and maintain accomplishment throughout your job. Hopefully, these types of web design hints have provided you with something to take into account and help help you out for more learning and experimentations. Perhaps the last web design hint should be to never rest on your own laurels, regardless of successful the 2017 was.

Berkeley College, local leaders mark
Women's History Month with messages of empowerment
WOODLAND PARK — "You can do it all."
Those were the words offered to female students by Passaic County Freeholder Director Tahesha Way and number of other professional women at a leadership panel hosted by Berkeley College in honor of Women's History Month.
Ms. Way and Assemblywomen Nellie Pou (D-35
), Joan Voss (D-38
) and Elease Evans (D-35
) discussed their legislative passions and the unique challenges women face as mothers, wives and professionals before an audience of nearly 150 Berkeley College students and faculty, politicians and community leaders.
"These professionals are fantastic role models, not just for our young women, but for all the students at Berkeley College," said Berkeley College Senior Vice President of External Affairs Teri Duda, event moderator. "The many successes of our panelists prove that there is no limit to what strong, educated women can do for their communities and the world."
Ms. Duda herself was named one of New Jersey's Best 50 Women in Business by NJBIZ, a New Jersey business news publication, and also has been honored as Garden State Woman of the Year by the Garden State Woman Education Foundation.
"We need to take more control in government," Assemblywoman Voss told the women in the audience, noting that only 36 of the 120 members of the New Jersey Legislature are female. "Thirty-six is still not enough."
She added that it is disheartening that the United States has never elected a woman president, while other countries where women have been oppressed for years have already done so. The panelists said it was encouraging, though, when 14 new female senators and assemblywomen entered the New Jersey Legislature in 2008.
"It's important that as women we have our say," said Assemblywoman Pou, the first woman and first Hispanic to represent the 35
District. "We represent needs that are important to us — what is important to our children, our grandchildren."
The women cited their passions for caregiver support, autism awareness and domestic violence aid, among other topics.
Assemblywoman Evans spoke about her support for A-3160, a bill that would provide a safe haven from prosecution for minors who summon medical assistance for intoxicated friends. Assemblywoman Pou is seeking support to deter high school dropouts by raising the legal age at which teens are allowed to leave school from 16 to 18.
"We have the chance to touch a lot of lives," said Assemblywoman Evans, a former social worker.
Maria Benitez, a Berkeley College student who is active in campus government, questioned the panel about the challenges they have faced as women.
Ms. Way, an attorney, recalled being mistaken for a paralegal in court; Assemblywoman Voss said she was told as a college student, "We don't give this scholarship to
"You just have to be tenacious," said Assemblywoman Voss. "You just have to put your head down and say 'I'm going to do this.' Women have a very hard road to hoe."
Assemblywoman Voss, a former teacher and Fort Lee councilwoman, added that her message was for all women, not only college students.
"I encourage women to never say, 'I'm too old to run for government,' or 'I'm too old to go back to school,' " said the assemblywoman, who began working on her doctorate when she was nearly 50 years old. "It's never too late to do anything you want to do."

Expand Referral Attachment Size beyond 500 KB
We would like to be able to add attachments to referrals larger than 500KB. Most of our medical documents exceed that.93 votesPartially Resolved · Aliza responded
Hello everyone – we are excited to announce that as of 7/27/17 we have removed the file size restriction for attachments on electronic referrals. Electronic referrals consist of referrals sent through the Practice Fusion network (i.e. to another verified Practice Fusion provider) or via Direct Message (i.e. if the recipient uses a different EHR system).
Please note that attachments for faxed referrals must still be 500KB or less, so if you are sending an electronic referral and wish to exceed that file size limit, make sure you un-check the "Send by Fax" box prior to sending.

By Dell F. Sanchez
Mi Casa — La casa de Sanchez ben Judah is my newly released book. It's the intriguing story my paternal grandmother, Mama Juanita, wife of Papa Delfino Sanchez. Century by century, it peels back 3,000 years of our Jewish heritage with focus on the different champions of their era such as renowned conquistadors, philosophers, wealthy nobles and treasurers of kings.
Later back in time, they were grand rabbis over Jewish communities in diaspora that came out of the Babylonian Exile known as "Exilarchs." Some were heads of elite Jewish academies known as a "gaon." I discovered that the kings of the Kingdom of Judah were among my forefathers leading back to King David and way before him, Judah and his son, Perez.
This book on Mama Juanita, or Maria Juana Elizondo Salazar (1879-1974) is easy reading with only 105 pages including nearly 30 pictures and illustrations. The price is $20. Simply go to www.americananusim.org and click on the STORE tab to order your book.
Hag Pesaj Sameah / Happy Passover Celebrations,
Dell (Delfino) F. Sanchez III

Early 2014 LTE Carrier Speed Test: AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, Sprint, Boost Mobile
Now that every major network carrier has LTE coverage. I decided to do my un-scientifc speed test to see who had the fastest LTE network. Mind you LTE speed will differ depending on location and time. So for my test I decided to pair up the 5 carriers that currently offering LTE services in the USA; AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon Wireless, Boot Mobile & Sprint. To make all things fair an balanced. I conducted the test in the Boston area at 1.30am; I figured the time would give the lowest load on all the networks. Here are the results below in the video
Speed break down
SPRINT (5th)
Downloads: 13.30Mbps, 14.33Mbps, 14.89Mbps= Avg 14.17Mbps
Upload: 7.01Mbps, 6.79Mbps, 6.40Mbps= Avg 6.73Mbps
Boost Mobile (4th)
Downloads: 21.96Mbps, 21.71Mbps, 20.30Mbps= Avg 20.32MBps
Uploads: 6.19Mbps, 6.14Mbps, 6.38Mbps= Avg 6.23Mbps
Verizon Wireless (3rd)
Downloads: 34.57Mbps, 29.46Mbps, 38.13Mbps= Avg 34.05mbps
Uploads: 10.57Mbps, 12.91Mbps, 11.48Mbps= Avg 11.65Mbps
T-Mobile (2nd)
Downloads: 36.58Mbps, 35.84Mbps, 38.23Mbps= Avg 36.88Mbps
Uploads: 18.36Mbps, 18.54Mbps, 17.69Mbps= Avg 18.196Mbps
AT&T (1st)
Downloads: 43.06Mbps, 43.05Mbps, 37.81Mbps=Avg 41.306Mbps
Uploads" 19.78Mbps, 20.03Mbps, 19.18Mbps= Avg 19.66Mbps
It quite clear that AT&T has the fastest network, with consistent high download speeds above 40Mbps range and uploads Speeds close to the 20Mbps range, while Sprint had the slowest speeds with downloads in the sub 15Mbps range and uploads sub 7Mbp. Granted this was all in the Boston area. so it will vary from location to location. But the constant here is the fact that all carriers do offer LTE service in the area. With AT&T been the clear leader here witht he fastest speeds all around, T-Mobile show a huge improvement, Verizon wireless fall off a bit with good consistent speeds. Boost Mobile was the big surprise with good LTE performance for downloads (not so much for uploads), while Sprint was the biggest disappoint even with Sprint Spark. So I here is your LTE Carrier networks in terms of speed
- T-Mobile
- VerizonWireless
- Boost Mobile
- Sprint

Link brings years of experience tailoring solutions to meet the rigorous demands of today's various markets. Link's collaborative engineering approach delivers performance for several parts of the trucking industry; enhancing installation efficiency; leading the industry in capacity range; and improving overall driver well-being. We are able to drive down overall cost and extend OEM resources while providing the stability you need and the ride you want.
Since 1980, we have been the premier cab suspension manufacturer of choice for the Class 7-8 truck market. It began with one truck driver searching for a better ride. The result was Cabmate. This extensive history with OEM truck manufacturers provides distinctive capabilities to meet the most stringent strength, durability, and mechanical targets demanded by each application. These capabilities extend into our line of Auxiliary Suspensions, and are exemplified by our partnership in the Volvo 6×2 Program.
With Link suspensions installed on your truck, you will notice a reduction in road shock, cab vibrations, back and kidney stress and truck maintenance. Link suspensions will improve your cab environment to assist driver alertness, safety, and truck resale value.
Link has proven to perform in heavier vocational applications including concrete, construction, cranes, logging, refuse, and utility vehicles. We collaborate with OEMs, including Mack, Terex, Navistar, and Manitowoc to design the most reliable and durable heavy-duty suspensions.
Our Applied Technology Center (ATC) allows our engineers to develop, test, validate and analyze emerging technologies to enhance our components and meet the challenges drivers face each day in the field. Our suspensions have also been field tested in some of the most difficult environments. From line of Auxiliary Suspensions, SWB Tandem Steer Suspension, orAir Link® TD Suspension, Link vocational suspensions are able to provide solutions where others have failed.
We introduced our first fire truck suspension application in 1999 to help remedy ladder breakage for a major OEM. Since then, it has become a standard option for most major fire OEMs. Our Air Link® TD Suspension is a reliable and durable combination of air spring and walking beam technology. It delivers everything you demand in a fire truck suspension – high roll stability, low maintenance, superior load equalization and a smooth ride.
The Link Atlas is also available for fire applications in need of a rear single axle suspension. Atlas provides up to 35,000 lbs. of carrying capacity without sacrificing performance – an ideal application for both aerials and pumpers.
Our history in developing cab suspension solutions for the trucking industry has enabled us to address the unique demands of agriculture machinery OEMs. We have engineer cab suspensions, for sprayer applications, that are the most effective and economical solution for ride comfort and other considerations in the agriculture market. Our collaboration with AGCO includes our ability to design modifications to standard fittings to ensure longer product life. Our in-house paint facility ensures our suspensions meet the rigorous agricultural paint standards to help slow the damaging effects of weather and chemical forces – something most other suppliers are unable to accomplish.

popular dance "Musette" is also a typically French style of
music, born in Paris itself to be precise.
name comes from an instrument: the musette.
place where one could dance in town, with at least one musette playing
the tune in the band, thus naturally became a "bal-musette"
(musette dance-hall).
At the beginning of the 18th century, public dance-halls developed, particularly on the outskirts of the then Paris.
the "Fermiers Généraux" (tax collectors) built a wall around Paris to
better collect taxes and control contraband, the dance-halls found
themselves separated from one another by "barriers" (Ramponeau
barrier, Ménilmontant barrier, Belleville barrier, etc;)
can't talk about the musette without mentioning the Auvergnats (people
from the Auvergne region of France) and the Italians.
in the beginning, the term "bal musette" meant the places where
the musette instrument was played, it rapidly came to refer to all
establishments where one could dance, regardless of the instruments used.
them, the musette dance-hall should be reserved for the musette!
here's the whole story in chronological order...
The pleasant atmosphere and music of these "musette" dance-halls, often called "Family dance-halls" drew large numbers of Parisians and Italians...
latter, at the end of the 19th century, arrived en masse at the Lyon
station and settled in the neighbouring districts.
Italians, with their diatonic accordions, were initially quite well
accepted by some of the musette players. A few years later,
when they attempted to introduce new dances into the dance-halls and, thanks to the change to the mixed accordion (half diatonic,
half chromatic), to make the music evolve beyond the capacity of the
cabrette, a conflict erupted.
A few years later,
when they attempted to introduce new dances into the dance-halls and, thanks to the change to the mixed accordion (half diatonic,
half chromatic), to make the music evolve beyond the capacity of the
cabrette, a conflict erupted.
situation worsened again towards 1900 with the appearance of the
chromatic accordion and its fantastic possibilities.
Italians leave to play in new locations which they insist on calling
"Musette", characterised by the presence of the accordion,
drums and the "waltz".
Here are some names from this era:
Antoine Bouscatel, born 9th March, 1867
Charles Péguri, born 30th October, 1879 .
Emile Vacher, born 7th May, 1883 .
Martin Cayla, born 23rd June, 1889
The dance-halls and theatres closed during World War I.
the end of the war the masses needed entertainment, thus many dance
establishments opened : "musettes", "guinguettes", dance-halls, etc.
this period, one finds three types of establishments sharing the term
"Bal Musette" ("Musette" dance-halls) :
order to experience a "shiver of fear", the classiest of the
bourgeoisie sometimes went and mixed with the "masses" in
these often dingy and sordid places.
for the music, the accordion quickly and definitively "shrugged
off" the cabrette.
so one danced the tango, but also the foxtrot, the java, a polka
variation, the mazurka, the one-step, the paso-doble, the beguine... and
the waltz of course, which characterized the "Musette".
are the names of some of the famous dance-halls and dance
establishments in Paris and its suburbs, during the first half of the
20th century :
far as instruments were concerned, one should note the supreme presence
of the accordion in the groups and orchestras, and also that of the
drums (called "the jazz") which, by audibly marking the beat,
helped dancers to better feel the rhythm in the dance-halls of the time
which did not have sound systems.
The Swing-musette was born at the beginning of 1940 with a repertoire of waltzes allowing for rich improvisation...
by little the groups filled out with the addition of the mandolin, the
bandoneon, the clarinet, the trumpet, the saxophone...
the beginning of its peak, the accordion was the symbol of the Musette.
of the notable musicians of this epoch were :
1945, the "Musette" became THE popular music of its day.
whilst certain accordionists remained discreet and faithful to the
"Musette" style and its origins, others (amongst those mentioned above)
tried and succeeded in becoming "stars".
the image they conveyed ("old-fashioned" and a little too
"common"), their awful smiling grimaces, the media playing
what rapidly became "the same old song" (in the negative sense)
- all this culminated in harming the reputation of the accordion in general
and thus the "Musette" and its associated dances.
people lost interest in this style of music.
by little since the 90's, the accordion is coming back into fashion
among some rock groups.

As an innovator and visionary, Steve Jobs' accomplishments can be held on a pedestal with the likes of Microsoft's (MSFT) Bill Gates, Google's (GOOG) Larry Page and Sergey Brin and Facebook's (FB) Mark Zuckerberg. The aforementioned names are all highly regarded within technology for transforming consumerism and the accessibility of information. While best known as the CEO of Apple (AAPL), the late Jobs has had a profound effect on the world outside of technology. From purchasing Pixar in 1986 to supporting charities and environmental causes, Jobs' achievements and innovations continue to affect industries and lifestyles worldwide.
Steve Jobs And The Apple Story
Most associate Jobs' success with Apple; however, in the early days, Jobs' relationship with Apple proved to be a rocky one. After resigning from the company in 1985, Jobs founded NeXT, a firm that created computers for business and educational needs. While NeXT wasn't particularly successful based on units sold, the company continues to be an integral part of computers today: portions of Nextstep operating systems still live on within Mac OS X. Additionally, the famous "Wolfenstein" and "Doom" computer games were written on NeXTcube stations. (For more, see: Steve Jobs And The Apple Story.)
Job's $5 million acquisition of Lucasfilms' Computer Graphic Division in 1986 proved to be a wise investment. The potential he saw in the company – later renamed Pixar – paid off when he sold it to Disney (DIS) in 2006 for $7.4 billion. Prior to the mid 1990s, Disney was the gold standard of full-length animated feature films, and it wasn't until the success of "Toy Story" in 1995 that Pixar landed on the map. With each subsequent film, Pixar gained steam and created a whole animation industry in Hollywood. The company's movies grossed $3.8 billion worldwide before its acquisition by Disney.
While Jobs lacked expertise in graphic design and video production, he believed Pixar's computer technology and animation would one day match Disney's work. Job's biggest impact was on the strategic direction of the company, including leading and overseeing Pixar's IPO in 1995. The investment capital Pixar received from going public gave Jobs the freedom to rapidly expand the company. Many attest that Jobs' drive and vision for Pixar gave the company the support it needed to prosper and flourish. Today Pixar is recognized as one of the most influential film studios in the world.
Jobs' product launches while at the helm of Apple continue to impact countless individuals. Released in 2001, the iPod was widely recognized as the first user friendly and innovative means of accessing music on the go. Consumers had used portable radios, CD or tape players for remote audio purposes prior to widespread access of mp3 files. Syncing with Apple's iTunes program, the iPod gave users the means to carry and purchase hundreds of songs on a single device. Currently the iPod can be found in three different models depending on user needs.
Jobs' next big product launch was the iPhone. Combining the features of an iPod with those of a phone and computer, the iPhone enabled users to make calls, listen to music, and browse the Internet on one touchscreen-capable device. Besides synchronization to iTunes, the iPhone featured an exclusive App Store that liberated users from purchasing content from wireless carriers. Before the App Store, wireless carriers controlled the distribution of content to phones. As evidenced by the 500 millionth iPhone sale and 50 billionth app download in early 2014, Jobs' iPhone has clearly had a far reach.
Taking their cue from the iPhone, Apple and Jobs then created the first touchscreen tablet without a keyboard. A cross between a laptop and an iPhone, the iPad spurred the development of a new industry that other technology companies have since entered. Jobs' influence on retail products has revolutionized consumer technology, forcing engineers and developers to create new and innovative products. Consumers have benefited most from increased competition, as products remain modestly priced but boast increased capabilities and features.
As seen at NeXT, Pixar, and Apple, Jobs had a visible role in the success of products and companies. However, behind the scenes Jobs was known by a select few as a philanthropist. While his philanthropic efforts were rarely made public, many have attested to Jobs charitable nature. Jobs donated over $50 million to Stanford hospitals and contributed to various projects to fight AIDS. As a philanthropist, Jobs' goal wasn't to be recognized, but to help those who needed it. (For more, see: How To Start A Charity.)
Not only are Apple products considered innovative, they are also environmentally friendly. Jobs promoted an initiative for environmentally friendly products during his time as CEO. Apple utilizes eco-conscious materials such as recycled plastics and papers in its products to conserve global resources. Likewise, all Apple products are ENERGY STAR qualified, which means they are energy efficient. (For more, see: Clean Or Green Technology Investing.)
The Bottom Line
As the initial creator of upscale user friendly mechanisms, Steve Jobs' accomplishments in technology continue to have profound effects today. The competition created from the introduction of the iPod, iPhone, and iPad has revolutionized the technology industry. Consumers have benefited from developments in phones and computing, and have a wider array of choices when purchasing computers, phones and tablets. While Jobs' influence on technology was obvious, his philanthropy has gone widely unrecognized. Jobs donated to a variety of charitable causes, and he also sought to lessen the long lasting environmental impacts of Apple's products by changing the company's environmental policy.

Installation of SX2 ISDN cards and controller number assignment (kb4293)
The information in this article applies to:
- SwyxWare 2011
- SX2 QuadBRI V2
- SX2 DualPRI V2
- SX2 DualPRI
- SX2 SinglePRI
- SX2 QuadBRI
[ Summary | Information ]
This article describes the installation of SX2 ISDN boards and the controller number assignment.
Installing SX2 ISDN Boards
Windows detects new Hardware and starts Install new Hardware dialogue
(A unique Hardware ID is created from the combination of the board´s PCI ID and the PCI slot ID. That is also the reason why Windows detects the ISDN card as new hardware, in case the card is put into another PCI slot)
- User selects a path where The SX2 driver can be found (sx2.inf und data.cab)
- Windows checks if the driver is valid for the installed Hardware and installs the driver. All driver files from data.cab are copied to their respective folders.
- Windows also stores a copy of the *.inf and eventually the whole driver package to be able to install the driver automatically in case the hardware is detected again.( e.g. with server 2008)
- Card installation is completed by starting the SX2 coinstaller DLL (%windir%\System32\Swyx\sx2conf_w.x.y.z.dll)
- which creates the registry path HKLM\SOFTWARE\CAPI20, if it doesn´t exist already and looks for already installed CAPI devices. If no entries are found the board ID 1 will be assigned to the newly installed card or otherwise the largest found value+1 will be assigned. After that the SX2 CoInstaller will generate new entries using this Board ID and also stores this Board ID in the registry.
Taking the new card in service
Windows loads SX2 driver
- SX2 driver is then called with a refrence to the new Hardware.
- Driver reads BoardID vom Hardware related registry hive whre it has been stored by the CoInstaller.
- Driver creates a "functional device object" with \device\CAPI20x where x is the Board ID.
- Windows is starting up the device.
- After the ISDN board is started the driver checks if a boardID has been set up manually using the DIP switches. If so, the driver overwrites the former BoardID.
- Driver creates the device file \DosDevices\CAPI20y where y is the boardID.
- This File can now be used by an application to communicate with the driver or the ISDN board respectively.
Taking the Swyxware 2011 Gateway in service
- after the restart the gateway will enumerate all ISDN boards and create a port mapping table BoardID ⇔ controller number
- When the gateway becomes active, the card configuration is written into the data base (selector is the gateway´s hostname)
- SwyxWare administration then reads these values from the db when configuring the trunks and displays the boardID/PortID assignments grafically so that they can be easily selected.
- after the gateway has received a trunk configuration, it will check if the controller number is unique (update scenario).
- in this case it detects the respective BoardID/PortID and writes these values back into the db, so that these steps won´t be performed at every startup.
- if the trunk is taken in service for the first time, the gateway will also check, if there are controller specific registry entries. If so, they are also stored in the db (expert configuration).
- The registry entries however will be kept so that they can be reused for newly created trunks in the future, but they do not have any influence on the trunk configuration anymore.
- in a standby scenario the trunk configuration is replicated to the standby gateway (to be precise, it uses the hostname of the master gateway for database queries). Therefore in a standby configuration, a trunk must always be created with the active master gateway. For this reason the boardID/PortID must be identical on both gateways.
- This was the same in former versions of Swyxware , but refered to the controller number.
Enumeration of the controller number
refer to http://www.capi.org
For aplications there should be an intermediate layer (CAPI2032.DLL) which hides the device files and makes the CAPI devices accessible via so called controller numbers.
- Controller number start with 1
Controller numbers are assigned following the order of the boardIDs. The controller numbers are incremented for each Port
|Type of board
|Number of ports
|Controller number
|Controller 1 - 4
|Controller 5 - 6
|Controller 7
|Controller 8 - 9
If a card is being disabled or removed from the system, the subsequent cards will be newly enumerated,
Example - DualPRI (boardID 2) is removed
|Type of board
|Number of ports
|Controller number
|Controller 1 - 4
|Controller 5
|Controller 6 - 7
For this reason Swyxware 2011 has changed from controller number to a combination of BoardID and local PortID when configuring trunks.
In contrast to the controller number these parameters do not change anymore after installation. Additionally in master-standby scenarios it is much easier to assign the same boardID to the cards on both gateways which can then be used in trunk configuration.
