Deem Announces New Collaboration with Infor
New Integration Delivers Leading Travel Management Services & Integrated T&E Solution to the Enterprise
San Francisco, Calif., March 7, 2018 – Deem, a leading mobile and cloud technology provider for the corporate travel industry, and Infor, a leading provider of business applications specialized by industry and built for the cloud, today announced a strategic collaboration to integrate travel and expense management solutions.
Paired with Infor's flexible and configurable travel and entertainment (T&E) expense management solution, this integration offers customers more choice in travel and spend management vendor selection along with an integrated booking tool that automatically transfers data from the Deem Work Fource platform to Infor Expense Management.
"Our goal is to revolutionize business travel and eliminate the headaches and hassles of conventional travel software," said John F. Rizzo, President and Chief Operating Officer, Deem. "Our partnership with Infor is an important step in that direction. By integrating Deem Work Fource with best-of-breed partner solutions through our Fource Alliance program, companies can make travel booking, expensing and management an automatic and touchless process."
Integrating systems improves travel expense management for both business travelers and their employers. When traveler's book flights, hotels and services using Work Fource, expenses can automatically flow into the expense reporting software. This saves users from having to manually enter expenses and allows corporate travel managers to review and manage expenditures proactively before the trip is taken – providing better control over travel spending.
"By working with leading organizations, such as Deem, Infor is able to drive overall business performance for customers more effectively," said Mark Corsetti, Vice President and General Manager, Infor. "Infor is committed to ensuring that its customers have the most innovative applications, and premiere experiences with its solutions, and we will continue to seek new ways and partnerships in which to drive value for them."
Infor Expense Management offers unique and insightful capabilities for spending control, reporting, and analysis. Customers can actively manage employee-initiated expenses while on the go, thanks to mobile capabilities and cloud deployment, and reduce those costs without impeding their business. Whether an organization has one location, or it's a complex, multinational operation, Infor Expense Management can automate expense-related business processes with social collaboration tools, enforce policy compliance, cut administrative costs, and reduce the risk of accidental errors and intentional fraud.
Deem's next-generation business travel management platform uses advanced technologies to provide optimized solutions for travelers, corporate travel managers, and travel management companies and suppliers. Deem's platform, Work Fource, brings design, machine learning and customization together to provide the business travel ecosystem with a solution for managing travel costs at the beginning of the booking process, and integrating them seamlessly with the back-end expense reporting required by finance departments.
"Infor has enhanced its expense management capabilities with its recent partnership with Deem," said Robert Kugel, Senior Vice President of Ventana Research. "The alliance brings Deem's online booking platform for policy-compliant travel and itinerary management functionality to Infor's Expense Management. The partnership provides Infor customers and their road warriors with the ability to integrate and simplify their travel and expense management experience."

casey and i finished off the theme song at 4 in the morning after the random cartoons wrap party. so turn your speakers up and brace yourself for eleven seconds of mind blowing WARRRR!!!!! brave war.. bravest warriors.
Karl and Jim found out that i'm the reincarnation of Victor Buono. He played King Tut on 1960s Batman.
He died in 1982 and I was born. When I'm older I'll be ripped though. Like John Kricfalusi.
I'm outa here! maybe i'll blog again before my last day is out…. maybe. ooeeoooo
Crunch Time. I'm outa here on FRIDAY!
So I am busy tweaking the last few things I can tweak. I have been watching my animatic over and over .. wondering what .. would make it funnier. When making the animatic.. we cushioned the timing on some scenes so that when we go back in to edit the cartoon we will have some excess slack to cover .. us.(<– that hyper link is a Autostereogram!) Does that make sense? I tried to explain it because I'm excited to edit down the cushions.. to make the timing funnier.
Ahhh.. I've gotta get back to work.
hi.. So I just finished recording… i guess Melissa allready blogged about that. umm.. right now i'm just trying to get everything organized. I'm going back into the boards and fixing things. My BG designer Colin Fleming and I have been discussing holograms.. so I am going back in and drawing Brain Dog hologram characters.
That's about it. Going to edit the dialogue next thursday… then do the animatic on monday. Man, Floyd Bishop has a really nice production blog. It really covers everything and is nice to read.. mine is kinda … eh..
the one by the printer. I used magic tape. somebody flushed it too hard and the chain broke off. but now it works! so pee pees for all!
that's all.
I just came back from auditions for The Bravest Warriors. It went swimmingly. Now I have to listen to them over and over.. and .. decide. Everyone auditioned rediculously well. It's always a good guffaw in the sound booth.
-pendleton ward
I know I know.. you're sitting at home on a Friday night.. you can't sleep.. you're refreshing the Frederator cartoons blog over and over again.. waiting.. and hoping.. and wishing.. please Pendleton.. I don't know anything about your cartoon.. but will there be any fart jokes in it? Please.. Please blog about fart jokes.
and I'll tell yah buddy. Yes. There will be fart jokes. There is only one composed fart joke right now. but.. I can always add more fart sounds during post.
So don't worry. Even if this joke gets canned.. I promise there will be at least one fart sound in my cartoon. Even if I can't find a decent place for a fart sound, I bet I could stretch one out in the computer so it'll be all low and ominous for a general space static ambient noise.
Now rest your heads my darlings. rest and sleep easy.

Ni no Kuni 2: Revenant Kingdom won't be hitting PC and/or PS4 anytime soon, due to a recent delay announcement. Nevertheless, there is good news in that Bandai Namco has a new trailer up for RPG fans to look over that comes in part of Gamescom 2017.
Without wasting any time, the new trailer that Bandai Namco posted up showing Ni no Kuni 2: Revenant Kingdom for Gamescom 2017 can be seen below.
The trailer above, if you haven't noticed already, focuses on Roland — a president from Ichi no Kuni. The trailer also shows Roland transported to Ni no Kuni, who eventually befriends Evan Pettywhisker, the deposed king of Ding Dong Dell. In other words, parts of the trailer stand to be a recap of previously announced information.
Looking over to new content the trailer reveals, two new characters are introduced and brought forth: Nerea, the "beautiful queen" of the land of Thalassea, and Leander, her advisor.
Furthermore, I know the delay has some fans disappointed that the game will not release until early next year or 2018, but I expect it is for the best given that the game will offer quite a bit when it comes to exploration and story… so we hope.
The real question behind the long wait is will Ni no Kuni 2: Revenant Kingdom RPG and gameplay elements be something to remember or will it be a drag while playing? Hopefully it's the former, because I'm really looking forward to this game in all honesty.
As of now, and while we wait, more information can be found on Ni no Kuni 2: Revenant Kingdom by heading on over to bandainamcoent.com, which holds the latest information on said game as well as the option to pre-order it.
Finally, Ni no Kuni 2: Revenant Kingdom is still in development as we speak, but it will release across PC and PS4 on January 19th, 2018.

The Calling by Inger Ash Wolfe
I can't think of a more grisly series of murders in a novel as those that take place in The Calling, Wolfe's first Hazel Micallef mystery. For all the times I wanted to put it down, I just couldn't – the story was far too compelling.
Inspector Hazel Micallef, acting chief of the Port Dundas police is in pain – both physically and emotionally. Her back is giving her grief, her team of officers is unhappy, and her home situation is anything but agreeable. When someone begins murdering the terminally ill in increasingly macabre ways, she pulls out all the stops to discover the motive and in turn, find the murderer. When she finally pieces everything together, Micallef is stunned beyond belief at what has motivated this killer. As a reader, I was too.
The Taken by Inger Ash Wolfe
DC James Wingate is at the helm while DI Hazel Micallef is recovering from back surgery. She's still in pain, and her home situation is bizarre, but at least her team seems to be working well together. Micallef is called back to work when a body is found in a nearby lake, the scenario mimicking a recent chapter in a fictional serial currently being published in a local newspaper. It's apparent that the perpetrator is playing with the police when the body is brought to the surface.
As further chapters in the serial are published, they foreshadow, exactly, what the police find as they continue their investigation.
Obsessive grief and love steer this novel into deep and murky waters and the solution to the mystery of the body and the events surrounding it caught me completely by surprise.
Michael Redhill, aka Inger Ash Wolfe joins the library on October 22 as part of STARFest St. Albert Readers Festival!
Tickets are $5, and available at the St. Albert Public Library or through Eventbrite.

Finding the perfect shop in Otley, Yorkshire, spurred on Helen Parry to open Arundel Travel a year earlier than planned. She tells Abigail Healy how the business thrived.
Creating a business plan from a sun lounger while on holiday sounds unusual but it was vital for Helen Parry, who opened Arundel Travel last December after spotting the perfect store in the summer.
Previously a regional sales manager for Jet2holidays and in retail at Tui for 19 years before that, Parry had always dreamt of opening her own store.
"Circumstances changed when my daughter moved up to high school and over a curry with my husband I said I wanted to open my own shop. He was really supportive and we agreed to look into it the following August (2018)."
But things speeded up when Parry and her mum were walking around Otley and saw a shop available in an ideal crossroads location.
"I always knew I wanted to open in Otley – I spent a while here when I was with Tui – I have family ties here and there is a fantastic local community. Seeing the shop was fate," she says.
Parry wasted no time – joining the Advantage Travel Partnership, recruiting two experienced sales consultants and opening the doors to Arundel Travel in December – just in time for the peak selling period.
"We were busy from the moment we opened the door," she says. "Some of it was intrigue and having Jet2holidays branding drew customers in. They would book a Jet2holidays city break and then go on to book a holiday to Australia or Thailand. Long-haul has done really well for us – we've built really strong relationships with suppliers such as If Only… and we've done well on the luxury side of things."
Arundel Travel now has more than 800 followers on Facebook, and although the team worked really hard at the outset, flyering local areas and farmers' markets, plus sponsoring local teams and events, Parry says the social media channel has been their biggest business driver.
"We post some deals, but it's more about inspiration and encouraging people to think about trying somewhere new," she says.
Of course, there were lots of logistics such as back-office systems and electrics to contend with – but Parry says the biggest challenge she encountered when starting the business was re-educating people to book with a travel agent.
"People are so confident booking online now, but more than two-thirds of our business is people who would normally book online. I've really pushed points such as no booking fees, having more than 200 tour operators to check with, and that everything we sell is protected."
Another smart decision that's paying off for Parry is opting to open seven days a week.
"We wanted to make ourselves available for the modern family. I thought we'd really have to advertise it, but it has been amazing. Sundays are buzzing – we have people sat on the sofas reading brochures and couples, families, the lot all coming in."
Offering opportunities to the next generation is also high on Parry's agenda – having started out on Lunn Poly's Youth Training Scheme herself.
"We work with Craven College, which has a big travel and tourism department, and have had two trainees in every week for five weeks. I'd love to take on an apprentice in the future too. I think it's so important to get that practical experience on the job."
After achieving so much in just five months, Arundel Travel looks set for industry stardom, and with Parry at the helm it seems the local community and the youth of tomorrow's travel industry will benefit too.

Why Goodbye Hurts and Hello Feels So Good, and What To Do About It!
Zofie Lloyd-Kucia
l'll give you a clue to the answer here, and it's one word: focus. Think about it, when you're saying 'hello' to something or someone wanted, it might be a new job, a holiday destination or someone you love, then as a rule you're focused in a positive way upon it or them and what you expect to enjoy. On the other hand, when you're saying goodbye to a person or place or thing that you want, your focus is very different. As a rule you'll be thinking about what you're going to miss, how you'll feel minus that person or thing or place, and so on.
If you were saying goodbye to a beautiful holiday destination and at that moment you were looking forward to getting home to see your pets, or friends, or maybe even get back to work, then under such circumstances you wouldn't feel any angst! Similarly, if you were saying hello to a friend who was coming to stay and at that moment you were focused upon the fact that you were going to have to cook for one extra person and you don't like cooking, or how they might sit in your favourite chair in the sitting room you might not feel as happy or welcoming!
You see, we tend to imagine that it's the stuff of life, what happens to us, where we are, who we are with that causes us to feel good or bad. But the great news is that this simply isn't the case. Sure, for most of us it may well be easier to relax on a beach in some tropical paradise with millions of pounds in the bank than it might be at work on a Monday morning. But still, our focus has a huge impact. You could, for example, be on the same beach, with plenty of money and be stressing about mosquitos or sunburn or getting attacked by a shark or something! And you could also be at work, on a Monday morning feeling absolute appreciation for your job, colleagues, the office space and so on.
So when you're saying goodbye, if you feel angst you can know that a shift in your focus will shift the angst. And when you're saying hello you can also know that even more focus upon the positive aspects fo your current situation can give you even more joy.
Positive focus is key when it comes to living happily and when you practise this consistenly you reach a point whereby you feel invincible and what life brings you, what others do or think or say becomes irrelevant to you feeling good! It might add to your happiness levels but it becomes powerless in terms of detracting from it :-)
Wishing you well,
Zofie x

This is Ken Ham, often a guest on radio and TV on the Bible's authority and reliability.
When we look around, we see many similarities among living things. This is called "homology" and it is often used as evidence of descent from a common ancestor.
But just because something is similar doesn't mean that it had a common ancestor!
After all, a car is more similar to a bicycle than to a boat, but this doesn't mean the car and bicycle share a common ancestor. They look similar because they are designed for the same purpose and to function in a similar environment.
It is the same in the living world. Living things were all made by a common Designer to live in the same world and accomplish the same basic purposes. So it is no surprise that God used a similar design!
Ken Ham is the CEO and founder of Answers in Genesis-US, the highly acclaimed Creation Museum, and the world-renowned Ark Encounter. Ken Ham is one of the most in-demand Christian speakers in North America.
Answers in Genesis is an apologetics ministry, dedicated to helping Christians defend their faith and proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ.

A little bit about me
Currently available for consulting freelance work, product discovery workshops, mentoring and training in London and San Francisco.
The services I offer:
Customer centric and digital transformation strategy/leadership
Set up, lead and mentor CX and Service Design teams
Set up best practice and CX processes within the business
Lead omni channel conceptualising and execution across channels
Lead in-house training
Hands-on CX work when needed
When consulting in agencies and client side roles, my involvement is a mix of design, strategy and team management. It depends on the size of the project and team. I've led projects from discovery to delivery and helped set up design teams and processes of working, ensuring that experience principles are implemented and embedded into the DNA of the agency/organisation. I mentor designers and researchers throughout delivery, while still enjoying getting my hands dirty in solving design problems with my team.
With over 15 years experience in design and creative direction, I have had the opportunity to work with clients from strategy to delivery. I have led projects across platforms in industries such as fashion & retail, hi-tech, fintech, gaming and automotive.
I have led and structured design teams and worked closely with global directors to define strategy and design processes within organisations.
I am always on the look for innovation opportunities that involve new tech and need a holistic knowledge of CX strategy, omni-channel and end-to-end journey thinking. Believing that for any new technology, the fundamentals of user-centred design apply, I am always keen to bring my breadth of knowledge and experience to less traditional briefs. I am a keen follower of latest tech in the fields of voice, wearables and context aware computing.

text: Okay..so as you all know in one of the last questions I posted I said I wanted to be Lady GaGa for Halloween. I had no idea where to look, but I went to this store specifically for Halloween and lone behold there was everything I needed to make the perfect Lady GaGa costume! Awwwww damnit! That, was the first thing I said when I looked at the price tag for just one wig...65.00. Man..that ruined my day. I've been thinking about and I think a pinup girl would be a really cool idea. I just have no idea what to do for the cosutme, makeup, or hair. My hair is considered long, but I don't think it is. It's right to the middle of my boobs. xD It has some long layers and I have straight across bangs that go to the middle of my eyes. Pictures are greatly appreciated and um...if you have any rad halloween costume ideas please tell and post a pic. Btw: I'm only 14 so I can't have a too revealing costume.

UnitedHealth Group
The UnitedHealth Group is a company that offers diversified health care management services. It is based in Minnesota in the United States of America. It is located at Minnetonka (UnitedHealth Group, 1974). It is ranked the 14th on the Fortune 500 List of the best companies and business enterprises in the world. UnitedHealth Group has two companies that offer their services and products to the consumers. The two business entities are Optum and UnitedHealthcare. It has approximated that it serves over 70 million people in the United States of America.
This paper discusses the company in various dimensions. Firstly, the history of its strategic evolution is …show more content…
The UnitedHealth Group Corporation was created and launched in 1977. The professionals formed it so that it could provide a foundation for the reorganization of the existing company. As such, it became the parent company of the Charter Med Incorporated. Its launch came along with several new services that had been lacking (UnitedHealth Group, 1974). Some of them include drug, pharmacy formularies, pre-certification processes before admission in hospitals, cost management and control using physician office software, and the issue of insurance wrap. Other innovations that were incorporated into health care provision included the use of traditional HMO products and behavioral health care services such as mental health.
The changes formed an integral part of the heritage of the corporation. Its priority commitment was to assist the people to live lives that were healthier. The central idea was to use the best practices in the provision of medical care and the best business management policies so as to enhance the health of the patients. That would also assist in strengthening the system of health care in the United States of America. It is through these baseline innovations that the company successfully serves over 80 million people in the US and from other parts of the world.
UnitedHealth Group introduced the Health Plans for Seniors in 1979 (UnitedHealth

Running battles between police and protesters broke out Monday evening in one of Hong Kong's most densely populated neighborhoods, leaving dozens of people injured and arrested on the first night of the Lunar New Year.
In the worst violence to hit the city since pro-democracy protests in 2014, rioters were seen setting fires and throwing bricks, bottles and other projectiles at police. Television footage showed an officer firing two warning shots into the air and then aiming his gun at a crowd of protesters at one point.
Acting district commander Crusade Yau Siu-kei, said 44 people were injured in the clashes and 24 people were arrested.
Hong Kong Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying condemned the violence, describing it as a "riot," and promised to bring the mobs to justice.
The trouble first erupted when police moved in to clear street food vendors from makeshift stalls in Mong Kok, a working-class neighborhood in the heart of the city.
The police said protesters had ignored their warnings to clear the streets and "shoved" the officers at the scene. "To ensure public safety and public order, Police took resolute actions, including using baton and pepper spray, to stop the unlawful violent acts."
In what has since been dubbed the "Fishball revolution," the vendors were supported by local activists who appear to have been led by a group called Hong Kong Indigenous. The group's leader, Edward Leung Tin-kei, was arrested in the early hours of this morning, according to a Facebook post. Leung will be representing Hong Kong Indigenous as a candidate in the upcoming by-election for the city's Legislative Council.
In recent years, a number of "localist" groups have formed in response to Hong Kong's culture and way of life gradually being eroded by Beijing's meddling in local affairs. Frustrated by the lack results achieved through decades of peaceful protests, the groups are promising to step up their actions in order to put greater pressure on the government.
In late 2014, Mong Kok was the scene of numerous clashes during the pro-democracy protest known as the Umbrella Movement or Occupy Central that lasted for 79 days.

"Julian Wiles, the founder and artistic director of Charleston Stage and author of Inga Binga, brings the young Jack Kennedy to life before our very eyes. . . . Anyone who has ever been remotely intrigued by the dashing, enchanting life and times of JFK will enjoy Inga Binga. . .an original play, based on actual events that happened right here in Charleston, Inga Binga is the story of a weekend tryst between Jack and Inga, a Danish beauty queen who caught the young ensign's eye in Washington. . . We won't tell you much more of the story, (go see it for yourself!) but it was wildly entertaining." —Charleston Arts Magazine, 2012
Cast: 7M, 2W
Set: Unit set: a hotel room in Charleston, SC
Recommended for: high schools, colleges, general audiences
Intrigue, espionage, and forbidden romance abound in Inga Binga, based on the amazing true story of Ensign Jack Kennedy's World War II romance with Inga Arvad, a suspected Nazi agent and the former Miss Denmark, whom Jack called "Inga Binga". When rumors that Kennedy was seen in the company of a beautiful blonde bombshell and alleged Nazi began to circulate around wartime Washington in 1942, the FBI is soon on the case. Jack and Inga arrange for a secret liaison in Charleston, SC, checking into a hotel under assumed names. But FBI agents set up recording devices in the next room, where they begin to listen in on Jack and Inga's tryst. When reporters from LIFE Magazine show up, eager for a photo of the clandestine couple, the makings of a full-blown farce are soon in the works. Based on declassified FBI files that were secretly held in the offices of J. Edgar Hoover for more than 50 years, Inga Binga is a fictional and farcical romp through this steamy footnote in American history.

Mega-Producer Just Blaze Fans the Flames with UAD Powered Plug-Ins
Making hot records is nothing new
for Justin Smith, aka Just Blaze. This multi-platinum producer has
helped to shape mega-hits for acclaimed artists such as Jay-Z, Snoop
Dogg, Talib Kweli, Mariah Carey, Saigon and Kanye West. Fueling his
fire, Just Blaze has recently added the UAD-2 SOLO/Laptop DSP
Accelerator Card to his MacBookPro setup, and now mixes with a suite
of Powered Plug-Ins from Universal Audio wherever he goes.
³For me [the UAD-2 SOLO/Laptop] is just perfect, and the plug-ins
translate to the final mixes so accurately,² commented Blaze. ³It
allows me to just work the way that I usually work, with the
convenience of being able to do it on the go, on my computer.²
Just Blaze finds the UAD 4K Channel Strip and 4K Buss Compressor
plug-ins to be the closest emulations he¹s heard of his main mixing
console, the SSL 4000,* and he cites UAD Powered Plug-ins as the most
accurate analog emulations on the market. ³I can definitely tell that
UA really puts a lot of work into not just a faithful [visual]
representation of a unit, but especially getting the actual, real,
sonic side of the modeling into it, which we all appreciate.²
The UAD-2 SOLO/Laptop card is the newest hardware accelerator for the
award-winning UAD Powered Plug-Ins platform, now more than 30,000
users strong. Since the launch of the original UAD-1 card in 2001, the
UAD Powered Plug-Ins collection has steadily grown to include the most
sonically revered audio processors and effects units from the past 50
years ‹ including authentic, licensed emulations from Empirical Labs,
EMT, Neve, Roland, BOSS, Moog, Harrison, Fairchild, Pultec, SPL,
Teletronix, and Universal Audio¹s own legendary 1176.

While most aren't paddling this time of year, the winter is the best time to buy a new stand up paddle board as prices are low and companies are moving inventory out for the upcoming season's models. Black Friday is amazing if you act quickly as you can pick up an unbeatable deal on a new iSUP.
Best 2018 Black Friday SUP Board Deals
iROCKER SUP

The rise in the minimum wage helped lift private sector salary and wage rates 2.1 percent in the June 2018 year, Stats NZ said.
On 1 April 2018, the Government raised the minimum wage by 75 cents to $16.50 an hour. The labour cost index (LCI) salary and wage rates (including overtime) rose 0.5 percent for the June 2018 quarter and increased 1.9 percent for the year to June 2018. The minimum wage will continue to rise in increments, reaching $20.00 per hour by 2021.
"Seventeen percent of all surveyed salary and wages showed a rise this quarter," business prices delivery manager Sarah Johnson said. "Around 3 percent of all wages were influenced at least partly by the minimum wage increase."
If wages affected by the minimum wage had remained constant in the June 2018 quarter, LCI salary and wage rates would have increased 0.4 percent over the quarter, and 1.8 percent for the year.
Annually, private sector salary and wage rates (including overtime) increased 2.1 percent. Along with the rise in minimum wage this quarter, the Care and Support Workers (Pay Equity) Settlement Act 2017, which came into effect on 1 July 2017, continues to contribute to higher annual wage rates in the private sector.
In contrast, public sector salary and wage rates (including overtime) increased 1.4 percent for the June 2018 year. Pay negotiations for both nurses and teachers continue, contributing to the weaker wage growth in the public sector for the year to June 2018.
The impact of the minimum wage change was most noticeable in the retail trade, and accommodation and food services industries, increasing 0.9 and 1.1 percent, respectively, for the June 2018 quarter. It also affected occupations such as clerical and administrative workers, labourers, and sales workers.
The greatest contributors to quarterly wage increases in the quarterly employment survey came from some of the lowest-paying industries. Average hourly earnings for accommodation and food services, and retail trade increased 2.1 and 1.6 percent, respectively, for the June 2018 quarter.

I use a router to cut the holes out of the front for the drawers. This jig ensures the 2 holes are identical.
The corners are made square with a chisel. The holes at the top of the front were where I screwed it down to the jig. These will be removed after glue up.
Another jig was made to shape the curved sides. This was done on a router table where the router is fixed underneath the bed of the machine and the work piece moves rather than a normal router which is hand held and the work piece is stationary.
Once the curve is cut on the sides I can use this as a guide for cutting the groove to house the curved top. I made an auxiliary fence with a curve which matches the curve on the side to cut the groove.
My logo is carved on the inside of the box before glue up.
Now that the groove in the side is cut I reassemble the box and mark the position of the groove for the top in the front and back pieces.
The curved top is made by gluing the burr walnut veneer and the inside top walnut veneer on a piece of bendy ply which is placed on a curved former in a vacuum press. The former is made up of 50mm mdf pieces glued and screwed together.
Here the lid panel is in the vacuum bag waiting for the glue to cure. The air is sucked out of the bag so that atmospheric pressure pushes the top onto the former.
One of the nerve racking stages of the box build is when it is glued up!
After glue the tails and pins which protrude 0.5mm are worked back to the face. I start with a course file shown here.

In addition to the points that I made in my recent post - namely, that some artists can make more money from continuous streaming than they can from a single non-repeatable purchase - I ran across some other points from Daniel Messer. The subtitle on his post about Swift's removal of her songs from Spotify? "That'll Stop That Piracy."
Swift herself has been an outspoken critic of music piracy and streaming services, which is funny because my paying for Spotify means I'd never had to pirate a Taylor Swift song. (Not that I'd want to, but if the need was there….)
But it doesn't just end with music services. Messer used to work in a library, where customers could check out popular DVDs - such as Disney's "The Lion King." In fact, customers checked out the DVDs so much that they got worn out. When the library wanted to replace the DVDs, it ran into a little problem.
We couldn't buy a new copy of The Lion King if we wanted to because it was "in Disney's vaults" and not for sale at that time. Disney used to pull this in order to create false scarcity and keep the demand, and prices, high for their content.
Messer then posted three sentences. One will bring tears to your eyes. The other two will bring tears to Disney's eyes.
I watched disappointed kids walk away from the desk, being consoled by their parents. "Don't worry, honey. We'll just go home and download it or something."
If you can't get something one way, and you really really really want it, you'll get it another way.
Taylor, somewhere some young girl is crying - and learning what "ripping" is.

This high school is bullying a student for speaking up about her sexual assault
'I refuse to be a victim'
A sophomore has spoken out against staff at her high school who she says bullied her after she came forward to report her sexual assault.
Nichole Segay, 15, told her coach that a guy grabbed her ass as she stretched before track practice at Camelback High School in Phoenix, Arizona.
But she told babe that her coach didn't report it to the school even though policy required him to, and dismissed the incident as a "grab-ass game."
In an interview, Nichole said the bullying she faced from staff left her feeling "miserable", "victimized" and "unsafe."
Nichole said the incident took place on April 17 2017 when she was stretching ahead of track practice. She enjoys cross-country best, and comes from a family of runners – her sister is training to represent the USA at the 2020 Olympics.
"I was at track practice and I was walking past him," she told babe, referring to the classmate who she said groped her. "He was talking to one of the other girls and I walked past and that's when he grabbed me. I didn't do anything – I just turned around and looked at him but his hand was still on me."
She told her mom about it, who contacted a school coach – he told her he would handle it. They heard nothing for weeks, and Nichole had to continue training with the guy who groped her. Not only that but Nichole started to notice she was being treated differently by her coach and other students.
"Another classmate told me that I was asking for it," Nichole wrote in a speech she gave to her school board, which she shared with babe. "I had worn that same outfit numerous times before, what made this time so different?"
When she shared her concerns with her coach and athletic director, she was told "girls were more emotional," as she started to get frustrated and cry.
And when her mom Belinda tried to talk to her coach about it, she said the coach told her: "My daughter had no heart, she was never going to make it, she wasn't a leader. She said the whole team is better than her. And he later said I had misheard him when he said those things."
According to Belinda, he laughed, then added: "Good luck trying to get rid of me, and good luck trying to get a meeting with the school."
A petition was launched yesterday for the school to fire the coach, properly punish the student and formerly apologize to Nichole.
The coach later asked the guy to write a short apology letter to Nichole, 20 days after the incident. According to Nichole, it read along the lines of: "I'm sorry for what happened last track season. It was meant to be playfulness between teammates. I hope you can accept my apology."
Nichole said she was unsatisfied by the response she called a "two-liner," and became further motivated to speak out and pursue justice after seeing Taylor Swift win her sexual assault case later that year.
In her speech to the board, Nichole said she arranged for a meeting with the principal and district athletic director to talk about her report of sexual assault.
There, Nichole said Principal Dana Cook told her: "So you know, what happened to you was not a sexual assault."
Under Arizona state law, sexual assault only includes sexual intercourse or oral sexual contact and not groping. Groping, specifically the kind that Nichole experienced, is a lesser crime in Arizona known as sexual abuse.
"Regardless of the appropriate name, I was still inappropriately touched and absolutely nothing was done," said Nichole. "It feels like I am a outspoken victim and what happened to me is being portrayed as a minor thing, in a way like I need to just get over it."
She ended her speech with the questions:
"Why was this student who committed this act not punished?"
"Why is there no protocol to take sexual harassment and sexual assault seriously?"
"Why am I be victimized again for coming forward?"
"Why does it feel like I'm being bullied for standing up for myself by my coach and the school administrators?"
"Why am I not feeling safe at my own school?"
We repeatedly contacted Camelback High School's principal and the coach in question, but did not hear back.
An article featuring Nichole published by Arizona Central in November included the statement: "We take seriously every allegation of harassment and investigate fully in order to determine the most appropriate course of action."
Find out more about the Change.org petition to help Nichole here.
Babe is looking to interview high schoolers who have had similar experiences – email firstname.lastname@example.com to share your story confidentially.

National Institute of Pharmaceutical Education and Research
Drug development has become increasingly complex, time consuming and expensive. As a result there is an increased focus on making clinically established drugs perform better therapeutically in terms of efficacy, safety and improved patient compliance by designing novel and patentable technologies or delivery systems. This has led to a paradigm shift in drug delivery technologies from conventional dosage forms to controlled release and sophisticated delivery systems. These systems are based on the concepts of biopharmaceutics and pharmacokinetic driven by pharmacodynamic activity and therapeutic needs. The emergence of the Biopharmaceutic Classification System (BCS) based on the two tenets of absorption namely solubility and permeability has further simplified drug development program form a regulatory perspective. About 20 drugs, which are not only of clinical significance but also, model drugs representing various classes were chosen by the department to carry out research and projects in the area of conventional and novel drug delivery systems, biopharmaceutics and pharmacokinetic evaluation, bioavailability and bioequivalence testing, preformulation, formulation development and stability testing.
National Institute of Pharmaceutical Education and Research (NIPER) is the first national level institute in pharmaceutical sciences with a proclaimed objective of becoming a centre of excellence for advanced studies and research in pharmaceutical sciences. The Government of India has declared NIPER as an 'Institute of National Importance'. It is an autonomous body set up under the aegis of Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers, Government of India. The Institute is conceived to provide leadership in pharmaceutical sciences and related areas not only within the country, but also to the countries in South East Asia, South Asia and Africa. NIPER is a member of Association of Indian Universities and Association of Commonwealth Universities.
The department of pharmaceutics is one of the key departments of the Institute. It is equipped with state of the art facilities to undertake research in drug development and delivery. More recently, the department has initiated research on Biomaterials and Nanotechnology. In the frontier area of Biomaterial research, the focus will be for synthesis and characterization of new biodegradable polymer, their formulations for various drug delivery systems, to improve surface biocompatibility of medical devices and their invitro/invivo evaluation. To strengthen our research potential, nanotechnolgy will be utilized to prepare effective carriers to deliver the drugs at diseases targets and effort will be taken to initiate gene delivery program in our department.

There have been alot of years ( A LOT) that I have ended the year with a very heartfelt "fuck you" to the months past. This is not one of them.
There's the good versus the not-so-good scales being reviewed this morning in my head and my heart.
To be honest, 2014 was not a great year in many ways.
As far as personal relationships with others went, it was a year of ups and downs of pretty torrential hell at times. Sure, there were also times that I felt such tremendous love and connection that I smiled inside but it was filled with pain and hurt and pretty much wanting to swear off ever being involved with anyone again.
It as a year though, that I made huge gains in my personal relationship with my Self and that is a good balance to keep in mind.
But, looking back, it was also a year that held many highs rather than lows. Sometimes I have a hard time seeing the good but this isn't one of those times.
2014 was the year that I set some significant physical goals for myself… and achieved them.
It was a year that in which I did things I didn't think I could, and I'm owning the pride that I deserve to feel for that.
It was a year that I accomplished some things that people said I couldn't.
It was a year that brought times of absolute joy in my life and for that I'm grateful.
It was a year of experiencing things that made my spirit soar and my heart feel open again.
It was a year of new experiences and new connections to see grow and flourish in the next.
It was a year that held a lot of good.
It was a year that helped me believe that more like that , and better even, are possible.
So goodbye 2014, you haven't been all bad and for that I'm thankful.

Jim Spellos, president of Meeting U., is a technology guru when it comes to what's new, trending and obsolete. He is also a great resource for conference attendees, as he delivers more than 150 seminars annually to share his expertise. He will be speaking at Connect in Salt Lake City, Aug,. 23-25.
As technology continues to push the envelope of what is capable in the meetings and events industry (hello, chatbots) it is important that planners stay in the loop, being innovators or early adopters as Spellos calls them, to new technology developments. No one wants to be a laggard. Spellos recently spoke in our monthly webinar series, presenting on the hot technologies of 2018 and beyond. Here are a few takeaways you should be aware of and start implementing.
Old-School Technology
Conference Apps
Though conference apps are not technically "old school," they are an older technology format that you should already be using at your events.
"Conference apps should be enriching what you already have, rather than trying to figure out what app to use for the conference this year or what service," says Spellos.
Your event should include an app that attendees can download on iOS and Android that's user-friendly, where they can easily access transportation information, the agenda, education sessions and more.
"What your conference app conversation should be like is how you incorporate some of the newer technologies in there, so we can continue to engage attendees properly," he says.
Traditional Websites
"If you're spending a lot of time and money updating a traditional website, be it a desktop or laptop website, I think you're really missing the whole idea," Spellos says. He is referring to is mobile technology's influence. The majority of people are on their phones these days—2,617 is the average number that people touch their phones, with heavy users interacting with their phones 5,427 times a day. To say mobile is not important in the events industry is an understatement. "More and more people are using mobile only as their connection of point or information trying to gather," he says. "Think mobile first, always."
Social Media
Everyone uses social media one way or another, whether it's Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter or Instagram. Social media is ubiquitous in the events industry, so it's considered "old-school" in the fact that everyone knows how to navigate it. "It's not about which tools you should be using, but how do we use the tools to make sure they connect with customers and clients most effectively," he said.
New School Technology
Mixed Reality
Mixed reality—augmented reality and virtual reality—isn't just for gamers or kids anymore; it's starting to impact the events industry. "Similar to the scene from
'Minority Report' where things are floating around Tom Cruise's head," he said. "That's the way I see the future. Not going to have a badge, but your name floating above you."
Some AR and VR features planners are using include: All Space, an app that lets you share your experience with other people in VR; Concept3D's online maps that lets users preview a convention center beforehand; Google's cardboard camera app that lets you record in 350 and do basic 360 pictures; and the Layer App.
Bots/Artificial Intelligence
Chatbots are starting to pop up everywhere. Don't believe it? Next time you go to a website and a box pops up on the screen asking, "How many I help you?" That's a bot.
Chatbots and artificial intelligence are great ways to simulate human interaction. "We create so much data. The question is how are we using it?" he asks.
AI is used every day if you have an Amazon Alexa or Google Home. Spellos states that you can build apps for your organization with Amazon Echo's BluePrint and Google Home's Actions Console, where you can create quizzes, games shows and interesting facts to really extend the conversation you're having with your clients. "As we move from the desktop and into mobile, it's also moving away from hands-on keypads to everything being voice- and gesture-based."
If you would like to see a chatbot in action, Connect will have Connie at Connect Marketplace in Salt Lake City this year, where she can answer your questions.
Wearables are already on-trend thanks to Fitbit. But there are other wearables that are on trend. MYO is a band that you can put around your arm and use muscle movements to advance slides automatically, and ORBI Prime are glasses that do 360-degree recording.
*To learn more about the future of technology, check out the "Hot Technologies 2018" webinar on demand. And don't miss Spellos speak at Connect in Salt Lake City Aug. 23 and 25 at 11:15AM in the ConnecTECH Lounge Sponsored by Visit Denver.

This week, we were working on controlling the pigment flow with ducklings, goslings and a baby owl, and whilst this is a cutesey twee subject, it is rather difficult to perform, not enough water on the brush and we would have hard edges which we need to avoid for this fluffy soft subject, too much water on the brush and the pigment would run too far too fast and spread beyond the boundaries of the drawing and we would have ended up with very long haired beasties.
We practiced our pigment flow on a separate sheet first, including 3 colour mixing to make variations of brown for the duckling using red yellow and ultramarine blue, we also needed to paint high definition wet in wet for the stripe over the ducklings eye, this needed to be done before the head had dried, otherwise the stripe would come out hard edged, and not look like it was made of furry feathers
We applied our pigment to our fowl by editing our brush marks right down to just a few, holding the brush at a shallow angle so we could get a wide flat even coverage, and only lifting our brushes off the paper towards the top of the wash, so that any excess water ran back into the body, rather than down the pear belwow the body
We had several practices at this to gain more confidence in flow control before applying pigment to the beaks and feet using all 3 colours, but applying a clear wash 1st and then the pigment to selected areas using our photo reference as a guide, and making sure not to push the paint around too much resulting in a flat looking wash, please pay attention to the highlights on the beak and feet.
I look forwards to seeing you again next week.

Fair Oaks Bowen Therapy
Apr 06, 2011 05:37AM
● By Style
Photo by Dante Fontana
Describe your business. Did you find it, or did it find you?
Bowen found us! Mike suffered from extreme sciatica pain, but because of Bowen, he no longer has this issue. The original Bowen Technique was developed in Australia by Tom Bowen and is a series of gentle, rolling "moves" over specific areas of the body. It reignites our body's own healing mechanism; generally three to five sessions are all that is needed. It helps with back pain, TMJ, migraines, frozen shoulder, digestive issues, hip issues, asthma, bedwetting, plantar fasciitis, scoliosis and so much more! It's safe, gentle, long lasting and affordable…very different from what we are used to here in the U.S.!
How are you involved with both the community and your customer?
We are deeply involved with the Fair Oaks Chamber of Commerce (past president and committee chairs). Also, Mike is Santa for the Chamber's "Christmas in the Village" program! We are active members of the Citrus Heights Chamber and have been voted "Best of Citrus Heights" two years in a row.
Why is your staff the best in the business?
We are very knowledgeable, thorough and giving. In addition, we've completed all courses including advanced Bowen with the Bowen Academy of Australia – closest institution to the source, Tom Bowen. Remember: Not ALL Bowen practitioners are created equal!
Where do you go when the going gets tough?
Home. We are homebodies! We huddle up with a fire and our three cats and read or watch a good movie. Or we'll putts around in the garden and listen to music.
What's your hidden talent?
Mike is a fly fisherman and Kathy plays the drums.
What's your favorite place to eat out locally?
Mexquite Mexican Cuisine & Tequila Lounge.
Where do you and your family go locally to have fun?
Mike likes to go fishing on the American River and I like going to the gym or the Fair Oaks Village to hang out.
And finally, customer service is…?
Leaving them satisfied and wanting more!
Do you know that our editorial is not paid for, nor can it be purchased? In fact, our Introducing and Dine reviews are not paid advertisements. If you'd like your business profiled, please email Wendy Sipple at [email protected] Once we determine when your business will be featured, we will contact you to schedule a time to come out and take a photograph. Thank you!

IPLab:Lab 5:Neurofibromatosis
Clinical Summary
This 45-year-old divorced white male came to the emergency room with severe hepatic cirrhosisCirrhosis is a liver disease characterized by necrosis, fibrosis, loss of normal liver architecture, and hyperplastic nodules. and aspiration pneumoniaIn alcoholics, aspiration pneumonia is common--bacteria enter the lung via aspiration of gastric contents.. Shortly after admission he developed cardiac arrhythmiasArrhythmias are abnormal heart rhythms. and died. Significant past history included alcohol abuse, cirrhosisCirrhosis is a liver disease characterized by necrosis, fibrosis, loss of normal liver architecture, and hyperplastic nodules., and neurofibromatosis. He had no family history of neurofibromatosis, but his condition was diagnosed at age 17 when he developed neurofibromas along the lateral chest wall. There was no history of continued follow-up after this initial diagnosis.
Autopsy Findings
The patient was covered with variably sized subcutaneous nodules ranging from 0.5 to 2.5 cm in diameter. Other significant findings included micronodular hepatic cirrhosisCirrhosis is a liver disease characterized by necrosis, fibrosis, loss of normal liver architecture, and hyperplastic nodules. (liver weight: 1760 gramsA normal liver weighs 1650 grams (range: 1500 to 1800 grams).), ascites (500 ml)Ascities is the accumulation of fluid with in the abdominal cavity. There should be less than 30 ml of fluid in the peritoneal cavity., and splenomegaly (weight260 grams)Splenomegaly means enlargement of the spleen. The normal spleen weighs 155 grams.: 260 grams).
Virtual Microscopy
Study Questions
This is type 1 neurofibromatosis (von Recklinghausen disease). There is no eighth nerve involvement as is seen in Type 2 or acoustic neurofibromatosis.
- What is the significance of no positive family history in this patient with type 1 neurofibromatosis?
Neurofibromatosis type 1 is an autosomal dominant disorders with a frequency of almost 1 in 3000. The gene that causes neurofibromatosis type 1 has been mapped to chromosome 17q11. This gene encodes a protein called neurofibromin, which down-regulates the function of the p21 ras oncoprotein. Approximately 50% of affected patients have a definite family history consistent with autosomal dominant transmission, however, the remaining cases appear to be caused by new mutations. This case may represent a new mutation.
Although protean in its clinical expression, patients with neurofibromatosis usually have multiple neural tumors all over the body, numerous pigmented skin lesions ("café au lait" spots), and pigmented iris hamartomas (also called Lisch nodules). Other common clinical manifestations include skeletal lesions (scoliosis, bone cysts, thinning of the cortex of long bones) and mild intellectual impairment.
Liver failure.
