As a leader, you're always looking for new ways to increase productivity in your company. It can get complicated when we try to define what productive means. The definition of productive can vary from person to person. But, the company's perspective is usually pretty clear. Productivity is the economic measure of output per unit of input.
In layman's terms—to be productive we must accomplish more by doing less.
For most production managers, productivity is more than numbers on a spreadsheet. You tend to look at productivity from a holistic viewpoint. You look for:
- Improved accuracy
- Increased efficiency
- Stronger company foundation
- Greater economic success
- Happier and less stressed staff
- Better quality in the products and services you provide to your customers
Workplace stress is a major contributor to worker health and job dissatisfaction. So, productivity also means creating a healthier work environment. To be successful over the long term, the health and wellbeing of employees must come first.
Here's some food for thought. Reports show that employees that are stressed out experience decreased productivity and engagement. It makes sense that stress would have a negative impact on a worker's ability to perform their job effectively. But, how can you improve your workplace so that doesn't happen? What can you do to create a more efficient workplace?
The answer lies in implementing an effective and sustainable 5S process.
What is 5S?
There are systems that can transform a workplace from one of disorder and clutter to an organized and productive one. 5S is one of those systems. 5S is workplace organization designed to improve worker safety, productivity, quality and efficiency. And it accomplishes this by removing what's called the 7 Wastes.
Do you recognize any of these 7 Wastes in your workplace?
- Defects: These are products or services that deviate from customer specifications. Most people only think of the scrap cost associated with a defect. The costs of problem solving, materials, labor hours, paperwork and decreased customer retention are much higher than the scrapped item.
- Inventory: This is the amount of raw materials, work in progress or finished goods that a company is holding. Each piece of inventory being carries a cost and is likely gathering interest. There are additional costs from overproduction, storage, transportation costs, damage, loss and paperwork.
- Motion: Just because an employee is moving doesn't mean they're working. Think of all the wasteful steps in a current process in your facility. Are employees forced to take unnecessary steps to perform their job function? Employees that exert more energy on non-value added processes like lifting, retrieving or searching produce less. They're also at higher risk of injuries.
- Non-Value Added Processes: Are employees spending time and energy doing work that isn't part of their job? For example, are they sanding or polishing areas that aren't visible in its final form? Not only does that cost time and labor, but there's also increased material and equipment usage. The more a company uses equipment, the more costs are associated with maintenance, service, repair and replacement.
- Overproduction: This is often considered the worst of the seven wastes. Producing products or services too fast or too often has its own set of problems. Overproduction leads to unreliable processes, unbalanced work cells and inaccurate predictions of future orders. Overproduction is also responsible for holding up capital in raw materials, stocked items and finished goods. As a rule of thumb, companies should avoid overproduction by balancing supply to demand.
- Transportation: The cost of transportation in manufacturing is always a loss to the bottom line. There's a reason why many suppliers are within close proximity to their plants. By limiting transportation distances, companies can minimize the costs of overproduction, transport, storage, damage, loss and material handling fees.
- Waiting: How often do you notice employees standing around? Are they waiting for a previous step in the process to be completed? Are they waiting for parts, supplies or products to arrive? Are they waiting for clear instructions on their next step? The cost of waiting is huge and you can never recover those costs. There are ways to reduce waiting costs. For example, you can implement standard operating procedures (SOP). SOPs ensure clear communication, improve time management and minimize transport between work cells.
By removing waste and developing standardized processes, you can achieve a clean and organized workplace. 5S assesses everything in the current workplace. Then, removes what's unnecessary and performs ongoing housekeeping tasks. Finally, 5S provides storage solutions that allow workers to be more productive and less stressed.
At The 5S Store, it's more than just changing processes. It's a way of changing behaviors for the better. The 5S Store believes that the key to productivity and success is to enable employees to have a personal stake in their job. To do that, employees must have ownership over their positions. Through clear direction, improved habits and standardized practices, employees can become more confident in their abilities. And that confidence inspires problem solving and attention to detail that may have been lacking before.
What are the origins of 5S in the workplace?
5S was developed in Japan as part of the Toyota Production System manufacturing method. On a visit to the U.S., three representatives from Toyota were observing the processes of two major companies— Ford Motor Company and Piggly Wiggly. The enormity of the operations impressed them. They were surprised at the amount of waste that was occurring at Ford, however, they noticed wasted steps that had been leading to overproduction, layoffs and rehires.
At Piggly Wiggly, they were very impressed with their inventory management system. They noticed that the company ordered only what was needed (Just in Time Inventory) rather than storing excess items.
So, they gathered information from the two companies and returned home. They began to analyze the waste that existed in their own plants. They viewed their labor costs, inventory management and lost production hours. They examined their profit margins and total production costs. Then, they created a system that addressed waste through the use of repeatable and replicable processes. That is when 5S began.
The Phases of the 5S System:
- Sort (Seiri): This first step removes all unnecessary items from the workplace. The most common and effective way to do this is with red tags. The reviewer will assess the workplace and attach 5S Red Tags to items that aren't needed. This part of the process eliminates clutter and frees up space.
- Set in Order (Seiton): After red tagging certain items, you then find efficient storage solutions. A place for everything and everything in its place. The Set in Order phase ensures all members of the team know exactly where and how specific items are stored.
Questions to ask during this phase:
- What is needed to get the job done?
- Where should it be located?
- How many of the items do I need?
Organizational systems include:
- Bins
- Clips
- Labels
- 5S floor tape
- Magnetic clipboards
- Peg Boards
- Pouches
- 5S Shadow boards
- Signs
- Trash barrels
- Visual management
Shine (Seiso): The Shine phase focuses on cleaning the workplace. This results in a cleaner and brighter workplace. Now, defects become more obvious. And, areas that are in need of repair can receive much needed service and maintenance.
Employees are also motivated to be more productive in cleaner workspaces. Who wants to work in a dirty area? Workplace cleanliness is often linked to increased morale and job satisfaction.
By developing regular cleaning habits, you can be sure that every work area is ready for use. Tools and equipment are where they belong. This cuts down on time searching or preparing equipment for use. The cleaning phase also makes non-conformance of 5S standards much more visible.
Standardize (Seiketsu): By implementing the fourth step of 5S, you're able to maintain the first three steps. Now you can communicate the procedures, responsibilities and expectations to your team. By standardizing procedures, you ensure that the desired procedure changes remain in place. What's more, you can make sure ineffective conditions of the past don't resurface.
Sustain (Shitsuke): Without proper support, the Sustain phase is often the hardest part of the 5S system. Workspaces have been cleared of clutter. They are cleaned and procedures are clearly set in place. The company must now sustain these changes. It must become part of the company culture to be effective.
Routine inspections are absolutely necessary. Inspections make sure the company doesn't fall into old habits and routines. There's another important aspect of 5S. It's important to remain flexible and adopt new procedures as your company's needs change.
Who can benefit from using the 5S system?
5S can be used in any workplace and in any industry. It's effective in industries such as manufacturing, healthcare, government and service industries. But, production and logistic managers can use the 5S system in a wide array of industries.
- Automobile manufacturing
- Aerospace
- Foundries
- Parts manufacturing
Service Industries:
- Construction
- Plumbing
- Auto mechanic
- Body shops
- Public service
- Transportation
- Medical device manufacturing
- Hospitals
5S can improve worker safety, productivity, quality and efficiency in any workplace.
The Beginnings of The 5S Store
Most production managers are aware they need 5S in their facilities. They understand the value of using lean management tools in the workplace. They know the benefits of a 5S system. But, many fail when they try to implement it on their own. The problem is the lack of support available to them. Most production managers are told to use 5S. But, they are never shown how.
David Visco understands this. He spent many years in warehousing and manufacturing implementing process improvements. He recalls the hours spent worrying and stressing over 5S. He remembers feeling frustrated and overwhelmed every time he would try to find answers. Answers just didn't exist.
Swept up by the entrepreneurial spirit, David and his wife Barbara set out to change that. They were committed to creating a program that helped production managers implement 5S in their workplaces.
They studied leadership, productivity, lean manufacturing, team building, engagement and sustainment of process improvements. David became the 5S expert. He used his experience in warehousing and medical device manufacturing to develop actionable plans for production managers. They've always been passionate about helping others improve their processes. So, they created their own online store for a niche market that was vastly underserved.
The 5S Store was born. Now, there's no need to stress about finding the 5S solutions and products that meet your needs. The 5S Store has all the products you need for successful 5S process improvement. Not only that, they have the expert advice and support you've been looking for. With over 100 vendors in their network, they can help you find the solutions you need. And, they can help you find it at the right price. David says he simply wants to make the work of production managers easier through methods that make sense.

|Can I install RSA Key Recovery Manager without a hardware security module (HSM)?
Is it possible to install KRM without an HSM?
It is mandatory to use an HSM to do key recovery as the recovery process implies that
1. The private key which should be owned by an end user will now also resides somewhere else, on the HSM
Because of those two concepts, the private key must be stored in the most secure way and be also recovered in a secure manner, which the HSM provides.

Sorry to say goodbye to you, Little flappy bird. It's going to be a heart-breaking news for the Flappy Bird lovers, as Dong Nguyen, the developer of virally popular game Flappy Bird, says that the game will disappear within 22 hours, from both Google Play and Apple APP stores.
It seems like that the massive success of the game made him disturbed, and all he wanted to have is not the large stacks of cash, but peace.
"I can call 'Flappy Bird' is a success of mine, But it also ruins my life simple life. So now I hate it."
"Press people are overrating the success of my games. It is something I never want. Please give me peace." Says Nguyen in his tweets.
"I am sorry 'Flappy Bird' users, 22 hours from now, I will take 'Flappy Bird' Down. I cannot take this anymore." Says Dong Nguyen in his latest tweets. He also explained that the takedown isn't due to any legal issue, and he is not ready to sell it. He also added that he'll still be making games.
For those who are not familiar with this Flappy Bird, let me explain. The Flappy Bird is a runaway hit game developed by the indie developer Dong Nguyen under his Dot Gears studio. The game was downloaded more than 50 million times from both Apple App store and Google Play, and generating around $50,000 per day currently. It has vintage 8-bit graphics, and to keep the flappy bird alive, player just needs to tap the screen. Though the game requires simple controls, Nguyen had finished the Flappy Bird to be an extremely difficult game, and that is the reason behind its huge success.

Tigers Of India 2020
Tiger Photo-Tour
In the famous "Jungle Book" Rudyard Kipling acknowledged the undisputed status of the mighty Bengal Tiger by introducing Shere Khan as the King of the Beasts. Although the cat family includes many impressive and attractive animals, there is an aura of power and majesty about the Tiger, where observing a male Tiger patrolling his territory in an Indian Reserve is to watch an unchallenged ruler strolling through his domain. Unfortunately for the Tiger, being the top predator was no protection against the activities of man, and a combination of habitat destruction and hunting pressures have reduced the Indian population from an estimated 40,000 to less than 1500 before the conservation initiative known as "Project Tiger" sought to halt this rapid decline by the establishment of numerous Tiger reserves throughout India, with Ranthambore being one of the best place's in India to see the mighty Bengal Tiger, one of the most stunning, handsome and awe-inspiring creatures on earth.
The Ranthambhore National Park, which is a part of the much larger Ranthambhore Tiger Reserve, is a Project Tiger reserve; it lies in the Sawai Madhopur district of eastern Rajasthan. It is right now the only forest reserve in Rajasthan state and in the entire Aravali hill ranges where tigers exist. The Chambal River forms a natural boundary of the Park towards the east, and on the eastern shore of Chambal lies the central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh.
The Ranthambhore Tiger Reserve is the single largest expanse of Dry-Deciduous Forest left intact in India. Such forests were found all along the North and Central Aravalis but in the last few decades they have been badly degraded and right now this Tiger Reserve is their last strong hold. In 1973 a part of this sanctuary came under Project Tiger Scheme. At that time there were 16 villages inside the sanctuary but between 1976 and 1979, 12 of these villages were shifted outside the sanctuary. In 1980, in order to give greater protection to the forests, an area of 282.03 sq. Km. Of the inner part of Sawai Madhopur sanctuary was declared as national park forming the blue print for today's Ranthambore.
Ranthambhore's unique climatic and vegetational features have given rise to forests that are dry and open with little and stunted ground cover. This makes wildlife viewing relatively easier on the safari. There are over 300 species of birds, both resident and migratory, over 40 species of mammals and over 35 species of reptiles. Besides tigers, the other wild cats found in Ranthambhore are Leopards, Caracals, Jungle cats, Rusty Spotted cats, also Samba, Spotted deer (Chital), Blue bull (Nilgai), Chinkara (Indian gazelle) and Wild boar. Other large mammals that can be seen in Ranthambhore are the Sloth bear, Indian fox, Jackal, and mongoose and Striped Hyena.
Just setting off in search of a Tiger is guaranteed to send adrenalin coursing through the veins, whilst every movement in the undergrowth raises the expectation of a sudden appearance of this animal, striped body, footprints in the dust or the warming cries of deer all serving only to heighten the almost unbearable sense of excitement as you watch and listen for the first clue that a Tiger is around you. This Photo-Tour is designed to enable you to achieve your dream of seeing a Bengal Tiger in the wild at Ranthambore, which has consistently good records of Tigers and this Photo-Tour is designed to maximise your chances of seeingTigers.Even if the Tiger proves to be a little elusive the expert guides I have worked with in the past and I will employ for this trip, you can be assured of the very best guidance in finding this beautiful animal during your safaris. We will have two safaris aday, one in the early morning and the other in late afternoon, early evening. This tour is designed specifically to give you the best chances to see and photography Bengal Tigers. During our time at Ranthambore you will have twice daily safires, morning, evening, rising at dawn and returning at dusk, with a lengthy midday siesta to relax in between.
This Photo-Tour is being run by myself, who has an acute interest in conservation and the need to ensure the long-term protection of species and habitats being such an important part of my life. By staying at and visiting the national park and wildlife regions on in this Photo-Tour, we will be actively contributing and supporting a beautiful and locally-owned lodge/hotel, employing local people, local guides and other staff who have grown up in this region. With our preference for local naturalists rather than imported guides, being the key to a successful trip. Ensuring employment opportunities to local communities, so important in developing the local areas, the perfect recipe for the survival of the Bengal Tiger. This kind of wildlife tourism supports rural communities in impoverished areas and supports them in their ability to preserve their natural and wildlife heritage for their future generations. .
Our tour starts with our arrival in the city of Delhi, where we will be picked up and driven to the railway station where we will broad the train to Sawai Modhopur. Once we arrive we will be picked up and taken to our hotel accommodation which is just on the out skirts of the National Tiger reserve park. On arrive we will be met by our hosts and unpack and realx until the following morning. This whole tour is being run by people with a great passion for wildlife and the Tiger which will make this trip unique.

Day 1
Arrive from the airport, unpack and relax with some food and drink, and then get ready for our first safari first thing in the morning.
Days 2-7
These days are then spent photographing the birds and wildlife within the national park, with the Tiger being top on our list. We will stay until sunset and get those beautiful photographs of the Tigers and surrounding wildlife in some stunning light, its then back to our hotel and prepare for our evening meal in a lovely relaxed setting within our Lodge/Hotel. After which we can go through any tips or advice, review the day's images and share best practices, so that as a group you can get the very best out of your trip to Ranthambore, India. We will also go through tips and advice on wildlife photography covering both practical and theoretical examples that you can apply yourselves in your own time while you are here and back home,camera settings, apertures etc.
An early start on these days at 05.00am where you are woken with a welcoming cup of coffee from the staff, then make your way to the lobby/reception area where we are picked up in our private jeeps at around 05.30am, by your expert guide and driver, then driven to the park as you watch the sun coming up in this beautiful place. The morning safaris last until around 09.45am then it's back to the lodge where after you have placed your equipment away and freshened up your breakfast will be served. You are then free to visit the local shops, sunbathe or sleep until the afternoon.
Evening safari starts at around 03.00pm which then finish at around 06.00pm with the setting sun making for a magical ending to each wonderful day. This will be the routine of your 7 days in Ranthambore, designed to get you the very, very best Tiger encounters, enabling you to witness this animal in its own habitat and capturing these special moments with your camera, making for a fanatic trip.
In the evening our evening meal is served around 09.00pm, where we sit outside in the lovely and comfortable dining area of our accommodation as we are served beautiful food, mostly fine Indian cuisine, but they cater for all pallets and tastes..
Day 8
After breakfast we will say goodbye to Ranthambore on the midday train arriving in Delhi airport at around 7pm in the evening.and head back to Delhi airport and your onward joumeys home..
Recommend Equipment
You will need to provide your own photographic equipment; lenses ranging from a wide-angle right up to a 500mm will be perfect, ideally with two camera bodies, however, this is not essential. A good tip is to have one camera with a wide-angle and the other camera with your bigger lens, this worked so well for me the last time I was there, capturing the habitat alongside the Tiger. A tripod/Monopod and a beanbag are a must, which you can fill up at of lodge with rice, failing that there is a shop on site selling them. Also protection for your camera equipment from the dust and sand is very important, I use a shower cap on the end of my long lens, and a lenscoat cover for the rest of the lens which works perfect.
Additional Information
India's weather is very warm and dry at this time of year, so lose fitting, light coloured clothing is ideal, walking trousers where you can turn them into shorts are perfect, a hat is a must have and a good mosquito spray too along with a high sun factor cream. A good all round level of fitness is ideal, but you will not be walking around these places as you are driven in private jeeps so this won't present you with any difficulty health wise. Three months before departure you will need to visit your GP for a few injections, but once you have booked this tour I will sort out all your needs for this amazing trip.

Google Maps Street View – A Little Close to Home
I had no idea the Google Van drove through my complex. Kind of freaky.
2 Comments
ya i know what you mean. unlike you though, i live on a major street so i wasnt too surprised when i saw my place. however, i was surprised that you could see all the license plates of all the cars that were parked there that day…but it looks like they changed that ;). the resolution isn't as high and the plates are blocked out and you can only zoom in so far.
Comment by jen | September 3, 2008
yeah, never been a fan of street view. it's 1984 come to life. next thing you know, the g-van will be in your shower. 🙂

Kimberly-Clark (NYSE:KMB) more than doubled its fourth-quarter profit, as cost reductions and sales growth lifted the maker of consumer products.
Continue Reading Below
The company reported on Friday a profit of $539 million, or $1.40 a share, compared to $267 million, or 68 cents a share, in the year-ago period. Adjusted per-share earnings climbed to $1.44 from $1.37, beating Wall Street estimates by five cents.
Sales remained level at $5.31 billion, but still topped expectations for $5.28 billion. Kimberly-Clark saw a 5% increase in organic sales, which stripped out lost sales from a restructuring in Europe and other items.
Also on Friday, Kimberly-Clark projected earnings of $6 to $6.20 a share for fiscal 2014. The company also expects sales to be in a range of 1% lower to 2% higher. Analysts were looking for an outlook of $6.10 a share in earnings and 3% sales growth.
Shares rallied 3.1% to $108.72 shortly after the opening bell.
Gross margin widened to 34.2% from 28.7%, thanks in part to a 7.7% decline in input costs. Marketing, research and general expenses were down 6.3%.
Sales in the personal care division, which includes Huggies diapers, fell slightly to $2.37 billion from $2.38 billion. Personal care is the company's largest top-line contributor.
Consumer tissue sales, including Kleenex and Cottonelle toilet paper, also dropped to $1.67 billion from $1.68 billion. KC Professional logged sales growth of 2.5%, and sales were up 1.7% in the healthcare segment.
Kimberly-Clark, which also makes Kleenex tissues and Cottonelle toilet paper, said in November it is weighing a spinoff of its healthcare business, which generates revenue of about $1.6 billion annually but is the company's smallest unit. The business has a portfolio that includes surgical products and medical devices.

Adam Kirk-Smith Achieves Commonwealth Games Standard in Belgium
29 May 2017
Northern Ireland international Adam Kirk-Smith (Coach: Tomaz Plibersek) smashed his 3,000m Steeplechase personal best and reached the Commonwealth Games qualification standard as local athletes performed well at the IFAM International Track & Field Meeting in Oordegem, Belgium this weekend (Saturday 27th May 2017).
Woodford Green Essex athlete Adam, who ran a 3,000m Steeplechase personal best of 8:46.26 at last week's Loughborough International, bettered the Gold Coast standard and set a new personal best with a 8:37.62 finish – this was well under the 8:43.30 standard and now takes the number of athletes who have put themselves in the frame for selection to seven.
Letterkenny AC's Danny Mooney (Coach: Teresa McDaid) narrowly missed the Commonwealth Games 1500m standard (3:41.10) when he recorded an excellent 3:42.74 for the distance - his training partner and former NI & Ulster 10k Champion, Conor Bradley (City of Derry AC / Teresa McDaid), went close to a sub-14 minute 5,000m when he crossed the line in 14:01.86. European Championships 1500m bronze medallist Ciara Mageean (UCD AC / Jerry Kiernan) kicked off her season with a 2:03.12 for 800m.
There was also some excellent early season form from sprinters Christian Robinson (City of Lisburn AC / Rhiannon Rose) and Dean Adams (Ballymena & Antrim AC / Phillip Snoddy) in the 100m – Christian clocked 10.68 (1.11), while Dean broke the beam in 10.90 (0.7). Gareth Thompson (City of Lisburn AC / Phillip Snoddy) was also in action over 100m, running 11.11 (1.5); he then recorded 22.48 (0.1) for 200m. Another City of Lisburn AC athlete, Lauren Roy, ran 12.18 (1.1) for 100m and 25.12 (1.0) for 200m.
In the 400m event, Ben Maze (Crusaders AC) and Craig Newell (Ballymena & Antrim AC / Ian Neely) both ran well, crossing the line in 47.33 and 48.64 respectively. Commonwealth Games athletes Jason Harvey (Crusaders AC / Nick Dakin) and Christine McMahon (Ballymena & Antrim AC / Ian Neely) recorded season's best times over the 400m hurdles – Jason ran 51.22, with Christine also impressing with a 58.31 finish.
In other news…
At the AAI National Combined Events Championships at the Morton Stadium (Santry, Dublin), athletes faced torrential rain on Day 1 and then contrasting hot sunny weather on Day 2 (Saturday 27th and Sunday 28th May 2017).
Carmen Runners' Molly Curran secured gold in the Under 15 girls category. The Omagh based athlete recorded four event personal bests before being crowned Champion with 2300 points (the high jump event was cancelled due to poor weather conditions). Annalee AC's Niamh McCorry claimed 2nd place with 2296 points.
In the senior women's heptathlon, Kate O'Connor (St Gerard's AC) was leading the way after Day 1, but was forced to withdraw due to feeling unwell before competition began on Day 2. Lagan Valley AC's Laura Frey (4034 points) and City of Derry AC's Claire Dougherty (3680 points) went on to claim medals, taking 2nd place and 3rd place respectively.
Poor weather conditions undoubtedly hampered performances at the IMC / Tullamore Harriers Bertie Quinn Track & Field Meeting in Tullamore (Saturday 27th May 2017) – however, there were still some notable outings.
Paralympic hero Jason Smyth (Derry Track Club) clocked 22.33 for 1st place in the 200m event and Northern Ireland men Chris Madden (City of Lisburn AC / Mark Kirk) and Ryan Sharkey (Lagan Valley AC / Frank Sharkey & Tom Chorney) claimed podium places in the 3,000m race. Chris ran 8:40.79 for 2nd place and Ryan recorded 8:47.60 for 3rd place, a new personal best.
There was also a 1500m personal best of 4:15.37 for City of Lisburn AC's Tom Baird (Coach: Heather Ardis).
At the AAI Games at the Morton Stadium in Dublin (Sunday 28th May 2017), better weather conditions greeted many of the athletes who had been in action in Tullamore less than 24 hours earlier.
This was evident when Ballymena Runners man James Hamilton (Coach: Mark Kirk), who had clocked 4:03.59 for 1500m in Tullamore, ran a brilliant early season 4:00.77 for the same distance; this ranks James 3rd in the T20 World rankings.
Fellow Paralympic athletes Michael McKillop (North Belfast Harriers / Patrick McKillop) and David Leavy (City of Lisburn AC) ran 4:16.33 and 4:43.56 respectively.
In the same (1500m) race, Oisin Gallen (Finn Valley AC / Neil Martin) ran a 3:57.89 personal best for 3rd place and Neil McCartan (East Down AC / Mark Kirk) opened his season with a 3:59.25 finish for 4th place.
There were also personal bests for Jonathan Whan (City of Lisburn AC / Mark Kirk) and Claudia Jalon (Marathon A.D / Mark Kirk) over 800m, with Claudia running 2:11.47 (2nd place) and Jonathan 1:56.07 (2nd place).
In the 100m, Ballymena & Antrim AC's Christopher Doherty covered the distance in 11.32, but unfortunately the +2.2 wind will rule out what would have been a personal best for the up and coming athlete. City of Lisburn AC pair Josh Armstrong (Coach: Michelle Rea) and Anna McCauley (Coach: Maureen McCauley) were in action over the hurdles – Josh ran 15.10 (+1.1) over the 110m hurdles and Anna jumped the 100m hurdles in 14.40 (+0.4).
There was a Northern Ireland 1st and 2nd in both the men's long jump and the men's javelin. In the long jump, Ben Fisher and Jonathon Hill, both coached by Rhiannon Rose, leaped to 6.91m (1st place) and 6.44m (2nd place) respectively. In the javelin, Gareth Crawford (Lifford-Strabane AC / Damian Crawford) threw a huge personal best of 62.81m for 1st place and Jack Magee (Ballymena & Antrim AC / Laura Kerr) landed a 60.21m throw for 2nd place. North Down AC's Laura Salters also jumped well in the triple jump, securing 2nd place with a 11.09m effort.
In Arbon, Switzerland, Northern Ireland's T54 Wheelchair Athlete Jack Agnew (Lagan Valley AC / Heather Ardis) has been in competition at the Daniela Jutzeler Memorial (Thursday 25th May 2017 - 100m, 400m & 1500m) and the Swiss National Championships (Saturday 27th May 2017 - 400m,1500m & Sunday 28th May 2017 - 800m).
Jack made full use of the fast track and world class competition, smashing his personal bests at the event, which is considered to be the premier race meet in the world. Jack recorded 15.44 for 100m, 50.33 for 400m, 1:42.04 for 800m and 3:07.05 for 1500m, an exceptional string of performances.
Speaking to Athletics NI from Switzerland, Jack explained:
"This is a big step up in level for me and I'm very pleased with my performances, I've PB'd in every race in a tough 30°c heat.
Looking at the IPC World Rankings and applying the three athlete rule my 1500m PB of 3:07.05 puts me into contention for one of the automatic spots for the Commonwealth Games. I've also set myself up nicely for selection for the Para Athletics World Junior Championships in August in Nottwil, Switzerland.
I'm looking forward to the rest of the season."
At the Great Manchester Run 10k (Sunday 28th May 2017), local man Stephen Scullion (Aldershot, Farnham & District AC) looked back to his best as he and Northern Ireland 10,000m and 5,000m record holder Emma Mitchell (QUB AC) impressed with strong performances.
Stephen, who narrowly missed Ireland's IAAF World Championships marathon standard when running 2:17:59 at the Virgin Money London Marathon last month, clocked an excellent 29:25 to secure 7th place in a competitive field.
He took to social media to talk about the event, saying "Manchester crowd & city were brilliant", and added (in relation to his performance) "it's getting better. Portland track 10km next."
Emma, who is coached by Eamonn Christie, continued her excellent recent form to claim 6th place in the elite ladies field, crossing the line in 34:31.

People know him as Baz, but his real name is Mark Anthony Luhrmann.
His film career didn't start behind the camera, but out in front of it. He debuted as an actor in the early 1980s in "Winter of our Dreams". However, Baz realized almost immediately that acting wasn't his main goal as he preferred directing the actors.
So the Australian (born in 1962 near Sydney) began making a name for himself in musical productions and adaptations of famous operas.
His official debut behind the camera was in 1992, when he transformed his stage play, "Strictly Ballroom" into film. It is a romantic comedy that won him the Award of the Youth in Cannes.
He gained international fame with William Shakespeare's "Romeo + Juliet", a surprisingly alive and touching modern take on the English drama.
Even the dazzling "Moulin Rouge", with its extravagant sets, lavish costumes, photography and brilliant use of fast-paced editing was a great success though it wasn't liked by all. Evidently, Baz loves a good love story, so much so, that last year he released a magnificent and colorful remake of "The Great Gatsby".

One of my goals coming into school was to be able to study abroad because 1.) I've never been outside of the U.S. and 2.) I have dreamt of traveling the world and immersing myself in new cultures since I can remember. This is just the beginning 🙂 I will be sure to take lots of pictures of the beauty that is the United Kingdom and surrounding areas (London, Paris, Belgium), and write about my experiences as I am sure they will be life-changing for me.

Again the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he incited David against them, saying, "Go, number Israel and Judah…" But David's heart struck him after he had numbered the people. And David said to the Lord, "I have sinned greatly in what I have done. But now, O Lord, please take away the iniquity of your servant, for I have done very foolishly." Samuel 24:1,10
Then Satan stood up against Israel and moved David to number Israel. 1 Chronicles 21:1
I am very grateful for the verses listed above. I know. I know. You're probably thinking "Bo, you've lost it!" Stick with me for just a bit while I explain my case.
There appears to be a contradiction between these two passages, but there really is no contradiction. The first passage says that God incited David to take a census of the people. The second one states that Satan moved David to number Israel. This is a major contradiction, right?
Just like in the book of Job, God allowed Satan to tempt Job, and Job still believed that God was ultimately in control of everything that happened to him (see Job 1). Here, God in His anger against Israel allowed Satan to tempt David (as a chastisement) to number Israel. When the people of God turn away from the will of God, God removes His hand of protection against Satan and allows him to wreak havoc over God's people.
It worked, but the hope is in David's response (v.10)—"David's heart struck him after he had numbered the people. And David said to the Lord, "I have sinned greatly in what I have done. But now, O Lord, please take away the iniquity of your servant, for I have done very foolishly."
Here is David near the end of his life and reign as king. He is still making poor choices. He is still sinning against the God that he once danced before with such joy that he danced out of his clothes (see 2 Samuel 6:20-22)! David, at the tail end of his life, is still inconsistent, still in need of repentance, still in need of God's forgiveness.
And David still has the heart and the audacity to ask God to forgive him, after he had sinned so grievously at the end of his life!
Shouldn't he have known better? Shouldn't he have finally come to the place where he learned not to harden his heart against God? (Shouldn't we know better?)
David was a great sinner, but he was an even greater repenter. His heart cut him down (continued to cut him down even in his old age), and he continued to ask for forgiveness. He didn't hide his sin. He brought it to the only One who could forgive him.
David was such a world-class repenter that Acts 13:22 referred to him as a man after God's own heart. "(God) raised up David to be their king, of whom He testified and said, 'I have found in David the son of Jesse a man after my heart, who will do all my will.'"
David is also mentioned in the Hall of Faith chapter, Hebrews 11:32.
Do you see now why I am grateful for these verses? I am grateful for them and for the life of David, a true man of God presented to us "warts and all." David's life brings me such great hope because I, too, am a great sinner, and I need forgiveness. I am grateful because not only am I a great sinner in need of forgiveness, but Christ is a great Savior willing to forgive anyone who asks Him for forgiveness!
You think your sin is too great to be forgiven? Have you ever had a man put to death after committing adultery with his wife (2 Sam.11)? God forgave David of that terrible sin, too and turned that bad situation around to be a blessing. Only God could do that!
This Thanksgiving, give thanks to the God who is not surprised by your sin and who loves you anyway in spite of your sin. Give thanks to Him for being such a glorious God that He can bring forth beauty out of the ash heaps we have created!
Happy Thanksgiving,

You cannot grow taller overnight,observation by Must4care, there is no secret potion for that. But here are some exercises which can make you grow 3.0 inches taller.
Pelvic Tilt
For performing pelvic tilt one should lie back on the ground with knees bent and feet flat. It is performed by tightening our abdominal muscles. Repeat this exercise 5 to 10 times daily to grow 3.0 inches taller.
Be A Superman
In this exercise you have to keep your torso stationary and lift your upper limb and lower limb towards the ceiling to form a U shape. Do 12 repetitions daily, must4care suggest.
Stretching Neck
For this sit straight and keep your neck and head in midline position. Bend your neck towards your chest as far as possible. Then bend your neck backwards as looking towards the ceiling. Must4care recommend to Perform this 3 times daily. It stretches your upper vertebrae which elongates your spinal cord.
Maintaining A Proper Posture
Maintaining a proper posture is a big problem in our daily routine life, observation by Must4care. Standing or sitting with a proper posture not also enhances your personality but also you feel more energized and less worn out. While standing bring your scapula closer together and moves your chest forward.
Chin Tucks
Move your head forward while keep your shoulders straight and then move it inwards. Repeat this 9-10 times.
Wall Stretches
Wall stretches are performed against wall which stretches our spinal cord and helps it grow longer ultimately increasing our height over times.
Cat Stretch
We have seen a cat stretching her body. This stretching can be copied as it is helpful to gain a good height. Make a cat posture on ground by moving your spinal cord outwards.
Cow Stretch
It is opposite of a cat stretch. Tuck your spinal cord inwards by lying in a four limb animal position on ground. Perform alternative cat and cow stretches which will strengthen your spinal cord.
Hip Flexor Strerch
This exercise stretches your abdominal muscles and slightly tilt your pelvis backwards. Perform this exercise daily to stretch your body.
Hanging On Bars
This is an easiest exercise which can be performed by anyone in home or in gym. You just to hang by pull up bars acting like a monkey. Hang for a while as long as you can bear your own body weight. This is the most effective exercise to stretch your body for a good height.
Act Like A Cobra to Grow 3.0 Inches Taller
We all have seen a cobra snake with his head outward to poison his enemy. Lie on ground and do same as a cobra. This pose will stretch your upper trunk and spinal cord. This will strengthen your body and helps it to grow.
Downward Dog to Grow 3.0 Inches Taller
You have to keep your hands slightly on ground with shoulders and pressing them towards ground, raise your knees upwards and also your hips towards the ceiling. Also push your heels towards ground. This exercise will be very helpful in stretching your muscles of legs increasing your vertical growth.
Increasing your height 3.0 inches taller requires the above mentioned exercises to be performed on regular bases.

A woman from Indianapolis died on Saturday after contracting flesh-eating bacteria during a vacation in Florida.
Carol Martin traveled to Clearwater, Florida, for a vacation with her family and to watch racing in February. After her family returned from the trip, Carol noticed she had a sore on her buttock that looked like a pimple.
Carol had the sore checked by the doctor twice, but she was sent home prescribed with antibiotics and advised to use a heating pad. The infection, however, worsened, and biopsy revealed that Carol actually contracted necrotizing fasciitis, a serious bacterial infection also known as flesh-eating disease.
Carol was hospitalized as her symptoms worsened and spent more than two weeks at the intensive care unit, but she eventually died.
Prompt Treatment Needed
Accurate diagnosis and prompt treatment are crucial for treating necrotizing fasciitis since it can be deadly in a short span of time.
"The first line of defense against this disease is strong antibiotics given through a needle into a vein (IV antibiotics)," the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said.
"Doctors often use surgery — in addition to antibiotics — to remove dead tissue. This surgery is often critical to stop the infection and must happen quickly."
Bacteria In Water
Richard Martin, Carol's husband, thinks his wife's infection stemmed from her getting into the hot tub.
The CDC said that the common way that bacteria gets into the body is through a break in the skin such as a scrape, cut, burn, or bite.
The CDC warned people with open wound or skin infections not to spend time in hot tubs, swimming pools and natural bodies of water, which could be teeming with bacteria. Hot tubs in particular can be prone to bacterial growth.
"Bacteria will grow when the water chemistry is not properly balanced. What you can't see is the scary stuff about pools," said Greg Agerskov, owner of pool maintenance company The Pool Surfers. "Hot tubs are a smaller body of water and they're heated upwards of 100 degrees, which means bacteria can grow even faster there."
Agerskov advised checking the tub for red flags such as cloudy or green water. He warned that many people do not empty spas on regular water.
Other Ways To Avoid Necrotizing Fasciitis
The CDC also advised proper wound care, as well as not delaying first aid of non-infected wounds such as scrapes and blisters.
People with strong immune system and those who observe good hygiene also tend to have lower odds of contracting the infection. People with diabetes, kidney disease, and other health problems that weaken their immune system may have lowered ability to fight infection.

Catch Me If You Can, the 2002 true-crime caper film by Steven Spielberg, is made out of contrasting and oftentimes self-contradictory sentiments and elements. It's brisk, breezy, and blithe, with a perpetually jazzy spring in its step, about a teenager who conned his way to riches for a few years and the FBI agent who doggedly pursued him in pre-Vietnam 1950s, cast in an attractively nostalgic hue, where being an airline pilot meant all the good things in the world—especially if you were a fake one. At the same time, however, it resembles a tragic coming-of-age tale, harsh rather than gentle, mean rather than indulgent.
Put it this way: On one hand there are the gauzily golden scenes where Leonardo DiCaprio, hidden behind his Aviators and Pan-Am pilot cap, marches through the Miami airport arm in arm with a oblivious gaggle of giggling stewardesses, who are absurdly successful in distracting police officers and law enforcement agents who are teeming around in wait for Frank Abagnale Jr., the "James Bond of the sky," the mischievous young prodigy with quick wits and quicker feet after whom Tom Hanks runs after comically, the boyish charmer who can stroll up to an attractive teller and, with a few choice words, cause her to blush and chortle uncontrollably and fall in love while he extricates various details concerning bank checks (ah, these wonderful years that were…). Catch Me If You Can, when required, operates on a rough but sustained level of comic incredulity that is required from the audience, like a sweet adolescent fantasy.
And yet, inseparably, there is also the story of a privileged, promising young man wrecked apart by his parents' sudden divorce and financial woes of his father and who runs away from home. He turns to forging checks and swindling millions from the banks with intuitive, innate ease, and proceeds to lie to everyone including his own father. Frank Abagnale Jr. becomes the airline pilot (and the doctor, and the lawyer as well) and flies the friendly skies, but—a telling detail—every Christmas Eve, out of forlorn loneliness, he calls the FBI agent whom he has narrowly escaped from several times to plead to be left alone. This is the epitome of miserableness, and Tom Hanks, on the other line, cackles in glee. Spoiler alert: Frank is eventually caught, and thrown in prison, after having languished for what seems to be a couple of years in a brutal, cold Marseilles lockup. But he's given a second chance on account of his brilliant mind—working dull office hours for the same FBI department that caught him, analyzing fraudulent checks and other things that he knows. (He accepts.)
One would expect Frank Abagnale Jr., the enterprising, fearless young man who refused to be beat down by the dregs of reality, to pull a Shawshank Redemption and escape to some blue Pacific shore, and he does try—not showing up for work one day and running off to the airport all dressed up in his pilot uniform, in a last-ditch attempt to recapture the now unattainable. But Tom Hanks, wiser than he seems, knows the ultimate truth. The viewer does too, and so does Frank. Everyone knows, which makes it all the more depressing. Only half of Catch Me If You Can is sentimental and sweet, and, in context, it gets swiftly overpowered. The ending might be intended as being a somewhat "happy" one, considering the alternatives, but it is not cheerful nor does it bring a smile to one's face. At least, it didn't to mine.
I can't say the sober, even quite despondent dénouement of this film lowers my opinion of it as a whole, because I can't say I didn't see it coming, seeing the emphasis on the non-teenage fantasy parts that forewarned an ending in tune with reality. Steven Spielberg's love of always-complicated-never-easy family relationships (specifically father-son dynamics, one can argue) in his films has become famous, understandably so, and it manifests itself strongly here. But, although some of the exchanges between Leonardo DiCaprio and Christopher Walken, who plays his father, are touching, even wrenching, why were they there?
The thing is that Catch Me If You Can is never as profound as it could be or thinks it is, if Spielberg had been inclined to steer his ship so resolutely in that one direction, nor is it, ultimately, a fun light-hearted little gem, which, in my opinion, is what it should have been. Why can't we just enjoy this sweet adolescent fantasy without feeling the weight of the consequences and the knowledge of the causes of Frank Abagnale Jr.'s daring escapades, so heavy they ground the whole thing irrevocably? I feel fulfilled watching Leonardo DiCaprio charming pretty girls and living the good life while Tom Hanks huffs and puffs after him, thank you very much.

Valerie Tarico holds a doctorate degree in Counseling Psychology from the University of Iowa and has completed postdoctoral studies at the University of Washington. She manages the website WisdomCommons.
In her early teens, Tarico was a Fundamentalist Christian activist. She was pursuing what she called "God's truth." All truth, she believed, was God's truth. Like other intelligent young Christians she wrestled with doubt. She attended Wheaton College in Illinois, a college noted, according to Wikipedia, for its "twin traditions of quality academics and deep faith."
Tarico writes of studying biology while maintaining fundamentalist views: contemplating the mechanisms of microevolution but not connecting these mechanisms to the world of biology that includes humanity.
She does more than pick at points to trash Christianity. She writes that in her youth she was into asking wondering and kept a list of questions she hoped to find satisfying answers to. Three of the fifteen she lists are:
If God is good, and he made nature, why does nature so often reward strength rather than goodness? Why do so many people, including children, suffer excruciating pain, even pain unto death? Why do I feel like I'm lying to myself when I try to make all the pieces fit together?
On page 23 she writes of having spent "hours weekly studying when she was a teenager," and add: "It never occurred to me to ask about the histories of the Bible rather than histories in the Bible.
She writes of the Bible as a collage, as "a collection of documents written over a time span of six hundred years or more," with selection as to what would be included based on the prevailing orthodoxies of those doing the compiling. Written materials that didn't fit that orthodoxy were rejected. She writes that some of what is included "show signs of having their roots in oral traditions, in storytelling or chant. Others appear to be fragments of liturgy."
She mentions interpretations of nature in accordance prevailing awareness, citing Genesis 1-3-5, 11, 16, where she claims God is described as creating day and night and plants before the sun and moon are created.
Tarico wants fundamentalists to ask questions. She writes:
Humans spirituality runs stong and deep, connecting us with a sense of purpose and unity that transcends the varies of day-to-day living. This spirituality takes many forms. Some of these nourish the best in us, others do not — of this I have no doubt. Now as never before, humanity has the means to honor not the answers of our spiritual ancestors but their questions: What is real? What is good? How can we live in moral community with each other?
Someone comments at Amazon.com:
What I really appreciate as a recovering fundamentalist is the sensitivity and humility she demonstrates in her writing. She respects progressive Christians and knows the culture of Evangelical Christianity. Any thoughtful Christian should be able to read this book and benefit. I have read many other atheist authors including Harris, Hitchens, Dennett, and Dawkins but this book spoke my language in a way that touched my heart.
An online search for Valerie Tarico, YouTube, will include: "Christian Belief Through the Lens of Cognitive Science"

Alternative and affordability for the poor: Mother and father can choose personal colleges due to perceptions of higher-high quality educating and services, and an English language instruction preference. Nonetheless, the concept of 'alternative' doesn't apply in all contexts, or to all groups in society, partly due to limited affordability (which excludes most of the poorest) and other types of exclusion, related to caste or social standing.

Apple iPhone Repair ServicePlease select which type of iPhone you have from the options below by clicking on the image.
iPhone 3G Repair
The iPhone 3G can be distinguished by its piano black plastic back and curves. It doesn't have a video camera like the newer 3GS and it is not quite as quick. The hard drive sizes are 8GB & 16GB which can fill up quite fast!

Concerned on the need to reverse the dearth of data in the housing sector, the Real Estate Developers Association of Nigeria (REDAN), will organize a stakeholders' conference on National Real Estate Data Collation and Management Program. The National Conference is scheduled for Thursday September 28, 2017 in Abuja.
A statement issued by REDAN stated that the focus of the conference is to comprehensively collate and manage data for planning and decision making relating to preconstruction, construction and post construction activities in the nation`s real estate sector.
The statement reads, "Specific areas will include land administration practices, formal and informal housing activities, housing affordability mapping and other key indicators that will aid effective policy and investment decisions. More here.
You need a conference to make stakeholders understand the importance of data collation?? Really??!!!

Here is a news report about some Palestinians who had their homes demolished on the pretext that they had been built illegally. This kind of thing happens all the time in Jerusalem, where new homes for Jewish Israelis are built all the time but Palestinians find themselves mysteriously unable to obtain planning permission. If they go ahead and build anyway then sooner or later the Israeli authorities show up with bulldozers.
The odd thing here is that these demolished homes are not in Jerusalem or in some other area under direct Israeli occupation, but rather in Rafah, at the southern end of the Gaza Strip. The homes were demolished by security forces working for the Hamas government that administers Gaza, on the basis that the land was government owned. That some of the people whose shacks were destroyed had previously been made homeless by Israel's invasion in January 2009 seems not to have moved the Hamas cadres.
This is of course incredibly ironic, and not in a good way.

Plastics Technology - Dedicated to improving Plastics Processing.
Issue link: https://pty.epubxp.com/i/63426
No Dryer Is Complete Smart Drying Is Finally Available For Plastics... For years, processors have had to estimate drying times. It's all been guesswork because pellet moisture changes from season to season and supplier to supplier. So most processors and resin suppliers play it safe and over–dry…wasting energy and often over-cooking the resin. It's like putting a meat roast in a 350° oven and cooking it for 4 hours just to make sure it's done inside. Nobody would ever cook that way. Instead, you'd check the internal temperature and remove the roast when it was done. With plastics, this type of resin drying preci- sion has never been available before. You never really knew when the pellet moisture was ideal, so instead, you guessed and cooked the resin for hours and hours. All that changes with exclusive line of MoistureMaster™ Complete Without MoistureMaster™ Dryers. No Dryer is . MoistureMaster™ Wheel Dryers Are available in sizes from 25-5000 lb./hr. MoistureMaster™ Series Features BryScan 100 On-Line Moisture Sensor Technology.
