From James Madison to Stephen Higginson and Others, 6 September 1802
To Stephen Higginson and Others
Virginia Sepr. 6th. 1802
I have received your two letters of July 23 & Aug. 11;1 the former requesting the interposition of the Executive with the Government of Spain for redressing injuries suffered by American Merchants in Spanish Colonies; the latter suggesting that in the mean time, a public vessel be dispatched thither with an Agent authorized to demand a more prompt justice from the local authorities.
The President feels every disposition to patronize the commercial rights of his fellow Citizens; but he sees very strong objections to the latter expedient of a formal mission to a subordinate authority; especially with the imperfect means as yet possessed for supporting our demands by referring them specifically to the sanctions under which the Several voyages were undertaken.
The mode of interposition pointed at in your first letter, being the more regular one, had been anticipated not only by general instructions to the Minister Plenipotentiary of the United States at Madrid to charge himself with the just claims of American Citizens on the Spanish Government;2 but by a further instruction transmitted in Feby. last,3 reminding him of the complaints founded on detentions of their property and other unjust proceedings in Spanish America, and making it his duty, to comprehend if practicable, all such cases, by terms sufficiently general, within the cognizance of a Board of Commissioners which he had been previously instructed to propose, in conformity to the model in the Spanish Treaty of 1795. At the date of the last letters from Mr. Pinkney he had not recd. this additional instruction; but he had himself adverted to the expediency of enlarging the purview of the article in the Treaty of 1795; and there can be little doubt that the instruction itself would arrive before the negociation for a Board of Commissioners, into which the Spanish Government readily entered, would be brought to a conclusion.
As it is possible however that the negociation for a Board of Commissioners may fail, as it is not certain that Spain will concur in a sufficient latitude to its powers and as considerable delay may attend this mode of redress, it seems adviseable for those interested in the subject of your letters to follow up the representation sent from the spot, with a particular statement to Mr. Pinkney of their respective cases accompanied with whatever documents in support of them may be attainable. To enable him to proceed with the greater precision and effect, in his discussions and reclamations, it is recommended that the several cases be so discriminated by their circumstances as to shew, how far they rest, on general regulations or special licences from competent authorities; how far on licences reasonably presumed to be competent, though in strictness not so; how far on sudden & ensnaring repeals of general regulations, or discontinuances of special indulgences; how far on the calculation from existing circumstances, that the ordinary Colonial policy of Spain would be relaxed; and how far on fraudulent proceedings of Spanish subjects. As in this last case, the claimants may be required to shew that satisfaction has been sought in vain from the regular Tribunals of the place, it will be prudent for them to be prepared to meet such a preliminary.
I shall be glad to receive a copy of the Statement here recommended, as soon as it shall have been prepared. It may furnish a ground for more particular instructions to Mr. Pinkney; and may be made one, for asking the interposition of the Spanish Minister Plenipotentiary to the U. States, with the Vice Government of la Plata. I am Gentlemen very respectfully Your Obedt. hble servt

A force superiority or superiority force was a formation of the Imperial Navy commanded by a systems admiral. It was comprised of three battle squadrons, and a light squadron, for a total average of ninety starships, including three Star Destroyers. Force superiority formations were expected to perform space superiority missions which was defined as "the complete absence of hostile craft within the orbital space of controlled worlds, and no chronic enemy ship activity within the entire system." The Imperial Navy considered space superiority to be their primary mission.

When Roman MacGregor's fiancée Mia is kidnapped by human traffickers while out on a night on the town with her girlfriends, Roman and his ex-soldier brothers Brandon (Shawn Ashmore) and Deklan (Cole Hauser) decide to find her themselves.
Armed, they raid a den run by human-trafficking kingpin Max (Mike Epps), where they find drugs and other women being held captive, but no Mia. This attracts the attention of Cleveland Police Detectives James Avery (Bruce Willis) and Baker (Sophia Bush), who've been trying for two years to get enough evidence to lock Max up.
Just as Avery convinces the McGregors to let the police do their job, Avery is taken off the case when the FBI takes over. He agrees to turn a blind eye for 24 hours to allow the McGregors to find Mia.

Time cover of Leon Jaworski. [Source: Time]Watergate special prosecutor Leon Jaworski and his staff discuss how to proceed with the Watergate prosecutions. The combined trial of Nixon aide H. R. Haldeman and John Ehrlichman, former Attorney General John Mitchell, and three other Nixon aides, is scheduled for September 9, though that date seems unlikely. Most of the prosecution lawyers assume Jaworski will put Nixon on trial along with his aides. Nixon chief of staff Alexander Haig has already told Jaworski that Nixon will refuse to testify or be involved in any legal proceedings, and implied that Nixon's mental and physical conditions are rapidly deteriorating. Jaworski is not sure what to do. His staff calls the entire issue of who should take what responsibility for handling Nixon the "monkey problem." Prosecutors Richard Ben-Veniste and George Frampton later write, "On whose back was the monkey going to end up: the prosecutors, Congress, the White House, the grand jury, the court?"

Judge John Sirica, presiding over the Watergate trial of H. R. Haldeman, John Ehrlichman, and John Mitchell, postpones their trial until September 30. This gives Watergate special prosecutor Leon Jaworski some much-desired breathing room. Jaworski must decide whether to indict Richard Nixon. Jaworski's staff unanimously believes Nixon must at least be indicted, if not actively prosecuted, or history will condemn the entire work of the special prosecution. George Frampton, one of Jaworski's staff, notes that the politicians who could have made a decision on the issue have not done so. In a memo to Jaworski, Frampton writes that no one "can expect you now to abandon your mandate and responsibilities to the administration of justice in order to assume their burden.… I wonder if ten years from now history will endorse the notion that Mr. Nixon has 'suffered enough.' The powerful men around him have lost their liberty and their livelihoods. Mr. Nixon, on the other hand, will be supported in lavish style with a pension and subsidies at taxpayer expense until his death. He may reenter public life, no matter how morally crippled." The breadth and depth of crimes allegedly committed by Nixon are such that Jaworski is not sure where to even start with an indictment. [Werth, 2006, pp. 162-163]

Philip Lacovara, a lawyer on Leon Jaworski's Watergate prosecution staff, is adamant in pushing for an indictment against Richard Nixon (see August 22, 1974). Lacovara is a Goldwater conservative among a coterie of liberals and moderates; it is his role to interpret the team's duties and responsibilities in light of the Constitution. As such, his recommendations carry weight. Jaworski is also discussing legal strategies with Herbert "Jack" Miller, Nixon's lawyer, who intends to argue that Nixon cannot be given a fair trial by an impartial jury due to the incredible media coverage of the Watergate conspiracy (see Late August 1974). Jaworski's prosecutors are solidly behind Lacovara in demanding that Nixon be indicted. "To do otherwise," prosecutors Richard Ben-Veniste and George Frampton will later write, "was to admit that the enormity of Nixon's crimes and the importance of his office automatically guaranteed him immunity from prosecution."

Philip Lacovara. [Source: Oyez.org]One of Leon Jaworski's senior Watergate prosecutors, Philip Lacovara, is incensed at what he and many others perceive as waffling by President Ford on the decision to pardon Richard Nixon. Ford has repeatedly acknowledged that he has the right to pardon Nixon if he so chooses, but he has also said that he is leaving the decision to indict to Jaworski. In Lacovara's opinion, Ford is shifting the burden of responsibility and the possibility of any future blame directly onto Jaworski. Lacovara says that Jaworski should confront Ford, and "put [the matter] squarely to [Ford] over whether he wishes to have a criminal prosecution of the former president or not.… I believe he should be asked to face this issue now and make the operative judgment concerning the former president, rather than leaving this matter in the limbo of uncertainty that has been created." Lacovara also knows that the question of a pardon hangs over the trial of the Watergate "Big Three"—H. R. Haldeman, John Ehrlichman, and John Mitchell. If Nixon is to be indicted along with these three, and then pardoned during the trial, it would wreak havoc on any chance of winning a guilty verdict for any of the three. If Ford is going to pardon Nixon, Lacovara says, he should do it now, before the Watergate trials can commence. Jaworski has an additional worry, fueled by Nixon's lawyers: that Nixon might die during the proceedings, and Jaworski will be held to blame. Nixon's lawyers are calling their client "mortally ill with phlebitis," Lacovara will recall, and are arguing: "Why should the special prosecutor put this man into his grave? He'd suffered horribly enough and been forced to resign in disgrace. Just as a matter of human decency, this fatally ill man should not be called before the bar." According to Lacovara, Jaworski does not want to make the decision to indict Nixon. Later, Jaworski tells former Nixon chief of staff Alexander Haig, with whom Jaworski stays in close contact, that his staff is pressuring hm to push Ford to either "fish or cut bait… and not dangle the possibility of a pardon out there. The president needs to know that this is a call that he's ultimately going to have to make." [Werth, 2006, pp. 229-232]

Nathan Lewin publishes an angry op-ed column in the New Republic calling for a full investigation and prosecution of Richard Nixon. Lewin is the law partner of Herbert "Jack" Miller, who now represents Nixon. It will be Miller's job to argue that Nixon should not be indicted by the Watergate special prosecutor, Leon Jaworski. Lewin writes that Nixon "robbed the Senate" of the opportunity to render a strong judgment about his presidency when he resigned, and notes "the probability that Richard Nixon knows of or participated actively in crimes related to Watergate that have not yet been made the subject of a formal charge." In light of these not-yet-uncovered crimes, Lewin asks, "What possible explanation will there ever be if history records that those who acted on Nixon's instructions, express or implied, were charged and convicted of crimes and sent to jail while their chief spent his retirement years strolling the Pacific beaches, writing about his accomplishments in foreign policy and lecturing to college students?" Nixon is unworried about Miller's partnership with Lewin. Miller will decide that the best way to keep Nixon out of the courts is to claim that, because of the massive negative publicity generated by Watergate, there is nowhere in the country Nixon can go to receive a fair trial from an impartial jury.

- Simon is bringing friends. Bonobo will be performing with his 8-piece band, taking the live aspect of the show to an otherworldly dimension. Seriously, these musicians have serious skill!
Bonobo's love gardens
- It feels like it's meant to be. A bonobo is a type of chimpanzee, so it's fitting that we see Bonobo at the Kirstenbosch Gardens, what with it's sprawling lawns and glorious mountain views- it's a literal breath of fresh air.
- The momentous occasion is taking place in Feb, which will have us in the deep throws of summer- but it's from 18:00- 22:00 so expect a brilliant summer evening, kicking back with friends as you take in the magic that is Bonobo.
- If live music is known to give you goose bumps, then expect the Bonobo show to give you full body shivers- as far as live bands that mix in electronica go, this is the pinnacle.
Bonobo LIVE will be one of those experiences you talk about for years to come- to maximise your stoke-age watch this video of Bonobo's Boiler Room London set.

My relationship with coffee has evolved over the years. Most blog readers probably associate me with carrying a big-ass vacuum thermos of coffee into work and drinking it over the course of a day. And almost never washing out my coffee mug. If that's your impression it might astonish you to hear that many days now I only have a single cup (not mug, single cup) of coffee and at most I have two cups in a day. For a while I had a Senseo (there was a post about that back on Pic-A-Day when I ran that) and nowadays I use plain old French press which just generates a cup or so. I ultimately bought a larger French press that can make three cups at once for when I have guests who want coffee but now I just make one cup, then drink one cup. Simple.
Reasons? Well the reasons are legion. I'm more caffeine sensitive now. I suspect that's a mix of drinking less coffee and getting older but it's tough to separate the two there. If you know me as that "drinking a pot from a thermos" guy you also know me as a the guy who pops Tums all days. Guess what? Less black coffee means less stomach acid. Science! Also as I wrote on the defunct photo-blog I got weirdly OCD about "if I brew a pot of coffee I drink the whole thing". Switching to the Senseo meant I brewed coffee one cup at at time so drinking the "whole thing" was no longer a deal, but it also meant I was drinking mediocre coffee. Switching to the French press meant I could make good coffee and still only make one cup at a time.
OK, swell. Now I just need coffee beans. For a while I was trekking up to Orchard Valley Coffee to buy beans but that's a whole drive and crosses the 17 traffic and can be icky at the wrong time of day. Then for quite a long time I went to the local coffee shop (Lime Tree Espresso) that sources beans from Barefoot Coffee. This was a Good System™. Problem is that the local store is pretty much a one–man shop and sometimes he is just closed unexpectedly. About three weeks ago I went one day and found out he had started closing Tuesdays at noon. I went Wednesday at 2 PM and he was just "out until 2:30". At which point I had to go buy Cthulhu–knows–how–old Peet's beans from the Safeway. Enough. It's 2012, can't I just buy good coffee beans from Amazon and have somebody ship them to my hermetically sealed house of Board Games 'n Code Development™?
Well I didn't actually check on Amazon but the answer is yes! You can get 12 ounces of quality fresh-roasted beans shipped to you every two weeks from Tonx. But don't use that link use my pyramid scheme link a bit later. It will save you $10!
I just got my second shipment from Tonx this week and opened it up today. I have to say, I'm really pleased. 12 ounces/2 weeks is at least really close to my coffee bean consumption and I like the coffee just fine. It's within a buck or so of what I was paying at the local shop and I don't have to drive out and there and hope he's open.
So there you are. If you like quality coffee I'd recommend checking out Tonx. If you want to give it a try use this link. You get $10 off your first month and I think if three people use that link I get a free T-shirt. Or something like that. Anyway it's good coffee. Check it out.

MedPAC has released extensive information to help hospitals reduce readmissions, including these tips:
• Identify at-risk populations.
• Improve communication with providers outside of the hospital.
• Educate the patient on taking charge of his or her care.
• Schedule follow-up appointments and decide on medication before the patient is discharged.

Sydney/Indore, Aug 10 (ANI): Another Indian was attacked by four Australian youth last night.
Mohit Mangal from Indore was attacked when he was on his way to a shopping mall in Sydney.
According to sources, Mohit was attacked from behind with a beer bottle on his head and beaten up with a baseball bat on his waist and leg.
According to Mohit father, his condition was out of danger.
Mohit, who works as a mall supervisor, had gone to Australia about two years back to pursue his study in BE.
Mohit is the fourth Indian to be targeted. The attacks assumes significance as India's External Affairs Minister S M Krishna is currently on a visit to Australia to raise concerns over the recent violence against Indian students in Australia.
About the motive of these attacks, Krishna said: "By and large, I think there are so many other considerations which have led to this attack on Indian students."
"In India itself, we will have to take some measure like regulate unscrupulous agents to ensure students understand what is in store for them when they go abroad to study," he added.
Australian police told Krishna that the attacks had not been racially motivated and blamed Indian media for labelling the incidents as 'racially motivated'. (ANI)

Expect to see a lot of tablets milling about next year. Just don't expect to find Windows 8 on a lot of them.
Market researcher NPD DisplaySearch has upped its tablet forecast for 2013 to more than 180 million units, in a report released Thursday. That forecast, however, shows Windows 8 tablets having only a small impact through 2014.
DisplaySearch had previously pegged next year's tablet market at 168.9 million but now has revised that figure to 184.2 million.
And by 2017, the size of the market will jump to 424.9 million units, compared to 81.6 million units in 2011.
"There's a lot of display capacity that's going to become available from major suppliers," said Richard Shim, an analyst at DisplaySearch. "The television market is in a bit of a slump and notebooks aren't growing like they have in the past. The tablet is a high-growth market right now and there is going to be a lot more investment there."

Open Letter: Stop Wearing Athletic Wear When Not Being Athletic
Have you ever asked yourself, "I wish I was taken more seriously." Or how about, "I wish I felt more confident?" If you have, please know first, you are not alone. Second, you are capable and attractive. Third, that said, it may start with something simple and fixable AF.
It may not be what you're saying or the quality of your ideas. Rather it may be what you're telling people without even opening your damn mouth. Your style, or lack thereof, may be conveying all the wrong things. Oops.
In a perfect world what one wears would not matter how people perceive them. Of course that's not true because the world is not close to perfect AND people judge you. All. The. Time. Perception is reality, right? Say the accurate thing. Say it now. Say it… silently?
Here's the most basic-oh so-simple rule for dressing for success: Stop wearing workout gear in public.
That's right. Unless you are in a gym, at a fitness class, or in the great outdoors in the middle of a hike never, ever, wear athletic gear. No running sneakers. No zip up hoodies. And no certainly no leggings. Sporty gear has its place but only the one place. To be taken more seriously you should, at the bear minimum, wear proper clothes and change right before your workout to suitable gear. And change out of it right after. You can get away with it certain times, right? Think again.
Style Question: Are you going to meet girlfriend for weekend brunch and think your denim jacket over a cotton tunic with tights looks good?
- The Truth to It: It doesn't. You look like a teenager and that's not a compliment. It's lazy.
Style Question: Running to the mall for a few things and you grab a cozy hoodie before you head out the door?
- The Truth to It: No. Don't. Put on a knit sweater or jacket for required layering.
Style Question: Think you can get away with a longer shirt over your tights and top it with a blazer and heels to dress it up for work?
- The Truth to It: Up top and your feet are likely fine but down below you're all wrong. It's a mess. You're going to work so get dressed as if you are going to work. If you are a smart woman you'll turn back around and put on something smart. Look smart = smart. It's style math, duh.
Style Question: Let's say you're heading to the airport for a getaway weekend. It might be nice to be comfortable in leisurewear, yes?
- The Truth to It: You'd be wrong again. Unless you are traveling with your high school sport team put on actual clothes. This isn't hard. Of course dress with comfort in mind but try jeans that are a more relaxed fit or have stretch in them. If jeans are not your jelly how about a maxi dress or skirt (and hosiery if chilly)? Anything but sweats.
An everyday situation aside here is the style skinny: You never know whom you will bump into or where your day will take you. Be prepared. Be honest with yourself. You will not feel as confident in sweats as you will in a proper fitting pair of jeans, pants, or skirt. You just won't. Getting full tough love on you please hear this: if people look at you and think you are too lazy in your dressing, they may start to wonder what else is messy in your life. Doubt is poison. It's gross but absolutely true.
Need a test? Would you go on a date with a celebrity crush wearing west coast athletica? I think not. So why won't you give yourself more credit that that in your everyday life?
If you're up for the challenge try not wearing sweats outside of your home – unless you're working out – for an entire week. You'll likely get a compliment (or a hundred) for stepping up your style. Treat yourself better by dressing better. At the end of the style challenge week take some time to consider how it was. You'll likely look better but it's more that that. More specifically ask yourself, "How did I feel?" Betcha it felt great.
You're welcome.

["2017"] Fall Play Tryouts
|Posted by Wyatt on December 18, 2017 at 6:30 PM
The middle school theater season will officially start, ideally, around 8 weeks before the date of the show. At this time, we will put out announcements through school news outlets as well as hang fliers around the building announcing tryout dates. Information packets and sign-up sheets will be available in the main office. The packet will contain rules, guidelines, lines for memorization during tryouts, as well as other details that may be pertinent at the time for this show season. We ask that the rules and guidelines sheet be signed by student and guardian and returned to our team of directors on the first day of rehearsal.
The actual tryouts will be a little different from typical theatrical tryouts. During NMSTheater tryouts, no one auditions for a specific character or role. Everyone recites the same lines - from the packet - and our team of experienced volunteers will delegate roles as they see fit. Each audition will - usually - take place on the middle school auditorium stage. Each audition will be conducted in private. The only people who see tryouts are judging volunteers and our directing staff. Students will be directed into the auditorium one at a time and they will be asked to recite the lines provided in the packet to the judges. Students are allowed to have the line packet to read from during the audition. We only require that the lines be read. Any characterization that students may want to include is encouraged, but make sure it isn't over the top. Please keep in mind we have several dozen students waiting to audition and to be respectful of their time too.
By the time students arrive at school the next day, call-backs will be posted outside the auditorium. If your tryout number is on the list, then that means we would like you to be a part of our show. If your number is not listed, then we are unfortunately not able to grant you a roll in our show. We encourage anyone who may not have been granted a spot in this season's show to work in their own time on enhancing their theatrical abilities and come back next season.
Now the Middle School Theater season has officially begun. We will pick back up again with early and mid season rehearsals soon.
Break a leg!

Nedim Kulašin, a student of Information Technology at AUBiH and his friend Armin Rikalo, began their innovative Startup Company "WORLD OF TAGS" (WOT), with their first patent called NFC Virtual Advertisings Space®. It represents an interactive smartphone-pocket guide through the city with the taking data from special designed places. The main goal of WOT is to promote Sarajevo, as well as its tourist attractions. The same system is used for quick and easy navigation through the city, both for tourists and locals.
Its components provide a variety of content in a form of 3D virtual representation of an object, a photo gallery, contact information, offline navigation to the every object, including the nearest bus and taxi station, and much more. The whole structure does not consume users 3G internet but uses powerful Wi-Fi "hotspot" (private internet) and NFC tags for easier filtering and opening the desired content.
Near Field Communication (NFC) is a contactless, wireless, short-distance technology which connects two devices (smartphone and NFC tag) when they come close to each other by 4 cm. NFC tag triggers the smartphone to show all information about client mentioned before on just one swipe with the device over the certain point.
The first six NFC Advertising Spaces® will be integrated in a city of Sarajevo by 1st of June.

The built-in sensor activates the heater automatically even if the central heating is working poorly and the water pressure is weak. This allows you to get as much heat as possible out of very little resources.
Lacks a cool air option.
If your central heating system tends to have hiccups often, most hydronic heaters wouldn't be able to provide warmth efficiently. However, the KAC KHCH works well even in poor conditions and makes the most even out of weak water pressure. It's very powerful and will heat up your kitchen in a matter of minutes.
Hydronic (AC connection required)
Overheat protection (Thermal fuse)
49.8 (W) x 10 (H) x 31.8 (D) cm
2 years
You get 2 long hoses with the purchase, which simplifies the process of hooking the device up to the central heating system. Great for getting to angled pipes.
The grille scratches easily.
No longer do you have to settle for a heating device that buzzes like a fridge or takes ages to install, the Myson 3KICK500 is all about convenience. While the grille is a bit flimsy, it looks good and, with proper care, will serve you for years.
Hydronic (AC connection required)
Overheat protection (Thermal fuse)
49.6 (W) x 10.1 (H) x 30.9 (D) cm
2 years
The heating element is constructed specifically to provide nigh-instant heating and maximise efficiency.
The operation indicator is a bit too bright and might be annoying.
This is a pretty affordable and energy efficient plinth heater that's great for small kitchens. It starts heating almost instantly so you can only keep it running when you're in the room, saving money on your electricity bills. If you like to spend your money smartly, this is definitely a good choice.
Overheat protection (Thermal fuse)
50 (W) x 10 (H) x 26 (D) cm
5 years (Labor: 2 years)
The front grille is made out of brushed stainless steel, resistant to rust, damage, and scratches. Your heater will look as good as new even after many years of use.
You'll have to purchase the flexible connection pipes separately.
The Smiths heater can heat up a room of up to 25 square metres without making as much as a noticeable hum. Place it in your kitchen and you won't ever hear it over the sound of the refrigerator running. It's made of high-quality materials, doesn't use much energy, and is overall a good pick. If you don't mind paying more for a good heater, this might be the choice for you.
Hydronic (AC connection required)
Overheat protection (Thermal fuse)
49.8 (W) x 10 (H) x 31.8 (D) cm

The built-in fan is rather quiet and the device won't bother you with noise even when it's set to the top heat mode.
Installation takes a while and the device requires 4 screws instead of 2 so you'll have to drill more apertures.
An affordable heater that will be useful the whole year-round, the CDA APH01SS has several modes to choose from. You can use the cool air function in the summer or the warm/heat options for autumn and winter. Plus, it's a pretty quiet model, running at below 70 dB. A good choice for those working on a budget.

Smart Heater with Automatic Activation
Many people have a good central heating system warming their homes but struggle to stay cosy in the kitchen where no radiator is available. However, there is a simple solution to this problem - the KAC KHCH hydronic central heating plinth heater. This model is designed to be an unnoticeable yet effective addition to your home's original heating system.
At just 49.8 x 10 x 31.8 cm, the KAC kick-heater will fit underneath kitchen cabinets and most IKEA furniture, the front grille covering the device. That way it blends in with the rest of the kitchen area and you'll only know it's there due to the waves of warm air it emanates.
The KAC heater switches on when the central heating activates. A built-in sensor determines how high the water pressure and the in-home temperature are and adjusts accordingly. Even if your heating system is not too powerful, this little kick-heater will make the best of it without overloading. A thermal fuse protects the device from overheating and, if your central heating gets shut down, the KAC KHCH will turn off as well.
You might be disappointed by the lack of a cool air function as a device this efficient would make for a great mini-AC in the summer. But even without this setting, the KAC KHCH will be a treasure for all of autumn and winter, warming your kitchen without anyone even knowing it's there.
Myson 3KICK500
Quiet Heating with No Twists
Want to keep your kitchen warm but have no room to put down a portable heater and most plinth models don't seem to fit due to pipes running in the kickspace? Well, the Myson 3KICK500 may be just what you need!
This model comes with 2 long hoses that connect it to the central heating system. While other devices of this kind require some jumping through hoops to hook them up properly in spite of all the pipes that are usually placed in the kitchen, the Myson 3KICK500 will be easy to install and get running. The hoses will be especially handy if the central piping is placed at an angle or in a tough-to-reach spot.
While the Myson 3KICK500 is out of the way and unnoticeable if you still want it to look good try not to place it near spots where you usually stand when working in the kitchen. The metallic grille scratches easily and accidentally kicking it may cause deformations. Last but not least, we want to mention that this is one of the quieter plinth heaters out there, which means you won't notice it even if you're standing right by the vent. That's exactly what we look for in this kind of device, coupled with efficiency.
To sum up, if you need a heater that's flexible when it comes to the installation and doesn't hum loud enough to scare your pets or bother you, we recommend the Myson 3KICK500 wholeheartedly.

A Little Help with the Bills
Let's be honest, finding a heater that cuts the mustard isn't really tough. Most models can easily meet the bare requirements but it takes a special one to be both effective and energy efficient. We're talking, of course, about the A365 UPH201SS.
This model might run a regular 230 V and take its power from an electric source but it builds on that simple foundation to surpass others. The heating element here is spread out so it warms up a pretty big area quite fast, emanating heat in just a few seconds after being turned on. This means you can keep the A365 UPH201SS off while you're not at home or even out of the room. Only turn it on when you need to stay in the premises for a while, thereby both staying warm and cutting down on your electricity bill.
Now, the design here isn't all that it's cracked up to be with the indicator a bit too bright and, thus, annoying. Plus, the front grille is a bit weak compared to some others and won't withstand too many bumps, which are inevitable, especially if you have pets.
If you need to keep an average-sized kitchen warm on a dime, the A365 UPH201SS is a wonderful option. It's efficient, quiet, and has a reasonable price. While it's not the sturdiest, we'd hope that you're not buying the heater to stress-test it anyway.
Additional Info
Smiths SS3/5
Pay More - Get More
Sometimes true quality requires paying just a bit more, especially when it comes to basic household appliances. Trying to save money on a heater can backfire because the added cost comes from additional safety features, more efficient heating, and an appealing design. And that's precisely why we recommend you to consider the Smiths SS3/5.
You not only get 5 years of warranty and customer support, the device itself features overheat protection via a thermal fuse, which cuts off power when the temperature gets too high. Plus, the front grille isn't made out of cheap plastic like on basic models, it's crafted out of brushed stainless steel, which won't get scratched or deformed from the heat.
The Smiths SS3/5 may be a bit pricey, especially considering that you have to purchase the flexible connection pipes separately, but it makes up for it with a very low energy consumption of around 16-21 W. Pay a bit more once for the heater and save for years on your electricity bills!
All in all, we feel that the Smiths SS3/5 is one of the top-tier options available if you don't mind paying a substantial sum for high quality. It's quiet at just under 40 dB, works efficiently without wasting energy, and won't get in your way as you cook dinner in the kitchen. So consider laying down a few more pounds for this heater just so you can feel secure in your purchase.
Reliable Heater For Years
Tired of appliances giving out on you and the lack of a sufficiently long warranty leaving you stranded? We feel the same and that's precisely why we can recommend the CDA APH01SS, an electric plinth heater. It has a 5-year warranty that will protect you from any unforeseen circumstances and provide you with replacement parts should something in the heater get worn out.
This model operates below 70 dB, not completely silent but much quieter than many other models. You can hold a conversation while standing right next to the heater and you'll neither see it nor hear it. With that said, you will, however, most definitely feel the flow of warmth coming out of the front grille as this device puts out 2 KW of energy, a good choice for spacious apartments. Of course, that may raise your electricity bill somewhat but we'd say the heat is worth it. Besides, you can choose between "warm" and "hot" settings to decide how much energy will be used and how high the temperature will get. By the way, the CDA APH01SS also offers a cool air option, which will certainly come in handy in the sweltering months of summer.
The two things that we're not too keen on are the lack of a remote control that would remove the need to bend down to regulate the heat output, and the lengthy installation process during which you'll have to either wire the heater directly or connect it to a plug, which you'd have to buy separately.
Other than that, though, the CDA APH01SS is a smart, affordable choice. With overheat protection and a 5-year warranty, a shrewd buyer will find it tough to pass this one up.
What Is a Toe Kick Heater?
Toe kick heaters, also known as kickspace or toe space heaters, are a popular type of domestic heating systems. They are installed close to the floor, thus taking nearly no space, and that is their main advantage. Being an excellent alternative to baseboard units, they are less expensive to maintain and easier to install. Baseboards are bulky, so kick space heaters fit in where baseboards don't. There are various types of toe space heaters and the purpose of this review is to help you choose the heater suitable personally for you.
A heated house is good but a heated house with a fireplace is way better, isn't it? Check out our best electric fireplaces review! Kick space heaters have one problem: they are installed into the walls, ladders, and toe spaces, so they are not portable at all. If you are looking for a portable appliance, pay attention to our best gas heaters shortlist! You will obviously need the tools to install your kickspace heater, so here's the review of cordless drills that will help you choose the one you need.
What Features to Compare
First of all, you have to decide whether you need a hydronic kickspace heater or an electric one. Both of them have pros and cons but the choice usually depends on a customer's situation at home. If you have a water boiler, you will surely prefer using hydronic heaters because they are cheaper. Actually, they also require electricity to power the fan, so they can be called electric hydronic heaters.
If the room where you are going to install this heater is quite far from the boiler and you don't want to draw pipes to it, it may be better to use an electric heater. Moreover, keep in mind that hydronic heaters require some time before they start warming the room, while the electric ones will leave you in the cold if the power outage happens.
Heating Area
The second issue to consider is the area of the room where you plan to install the toe-kick heater. Various appliances have a different heating capacity and the heating efficiency will totally depend on how powerful the chosen heater is.
Of course, you don't expect much from an ordinary heater, but there are several useful extra functions that make heaters unique. A built-in thermostat is one of them. This superb feature will allow you to set the desired heat level and the heater will maintain it. Many heaters have safety systems which prevent fire accidents; it's particularly important for electric appliances.
Heater Dimensions
Remember, the size of a kick space heater matters. It affects not only the place where you will be able to use a heater but also its technical specs. The larger the heater is, the more heat capacity it usually has. Make sure to have enough kick space for the heater of the required capacity.
Q: What's the difference between an electric and a hot water coil toe-kick heater?
A: An electric toe-kick heater, as its very name indicates, is powered from the electrical circuit. It's a complete unit usually installed under a cabinet and plugged into a power outlet. Such heating appliances can be connected to the main heating system in a house or work independently. A hot water coil toe-kick heater (also called hydronic), in its turn, is plumbed in with a boiler system in a house. Thus, hot water circulates the coil and warms it up. Yet, even a hydronic toe-kick heater needs to be connected to the electrical circuit for powering the fan. Both types of appliances have a temperature sensing relay for fan control.
Q: My toe-kick heater doesn't turn on. What should I do?
A: First of all, check whether your appliance is connected to the electricity grid and powered. If everything is OK, check the thermostat setting and switch it to a higher temperature. Next, if your heater has a manual reset button, push it and turn the appliance on once again. Finally, if your toe-kick heater isn't new, check if the fan it clogged with dust or some debris.
Q: Can I install an electric toe-kick heating appliance near a dishwasher?
A: All safety precautions and requirements are mentioned in the manual to any heating appliance. As usual, it isn't recommended to install an electric toe-kick heater near a dishwasher (a sink, etc.). Also, you should avoid installing this heating appliance on a carpeted surface as the unit will get clogged too fast, which might be dangerous.
Q: What if my toe-kick heater makes too much noise?
A: If your appliance is too noisy, it might be mounted improperly. Check all the fasteners and make sure they are tightly fixed. Also, check whether it's clogged inside; in this case, the noise may come from the fan.
Q: Is it possible to use the fan only without turning the heat on?
A: No, any toe-kick heater is designed to provide heat, so it's impossible to turn just the fan.
Q: What if my kickspace heater is too hot?
A: It might happen if the airflow inside the appliance is blocked by dust, debris, etc. Remove the front panel and check whether the inner part of your heater is clog-free. Next, the overheating might be caused by the wrong voltage. Use a multimeter to check the voltage your kickstand heater receives and consult the manual to find out what voltage is recommended by the manufacturer.
Q: Which type of toe-kick heaters is more efficient?
A: Hydronic kickspace heaters are more efficient as water has a higher thermal conductivity than metal. However, hydronic kickspace heaters are more difficult to install than their electric counterparts.

Ultimate protection for both horse and rider's back
Protection for riders back
Perfect for custom and well fitting saddles
Provides maximum shock absorption without altering saddle fit or rider feel
Improves rider equitation
Tailored and discrete
Open cell technology creates 100% breathability
Product durability – this pad will last 7-10 years
Textured and supple, it molds for a custom fit when warmed to body temperature
Two shapes – Half pad and Contour pad
Two thicknesses – ThinLinePlus(1/4″) and Ultra ThinLine(3/16″)
Available with border Trimmed or Untrimmed
See sizing tab at bottom of the page for measurements
Why should you purchase a basic ThinLine pad instead of a shimmable ThinLine Pad?
$ Price and Longevity– The ThinLine foam will remain functional for 7-10 years, depending on use. Basic pads will cost you less than $1.00 per month.
Versatility– Basic pads may be placed over any other saddle pad and may be used on multiple horses.
Maintenance– Basic pads require no care or washing.
Half Pad or Contour Pad?
Half Pads offer a discrete amount of protection directly under your saddle. Contour pads add protection under the stirrup bar and will help control left to right saddle slip. ThinLine absorbs impact by moving it laterally along the pad. Unless the price is a serious barrier, we suggest you choose the contour pad; the more ThinLine foam you have, the better it works.
Ultra ThinLine (3/16″) is our thinnest shock absorbing saddle pad. Fitting a wide variety of saddle shapes and sizes, it will be the most versatile pad in your tack room. Thoughtfully designed to protect both horse and rider's backs and create a soft, quiet, elastic connection. If your riding is not in a place where you can focus on nuances, you should likely start in a ThinLine. If you are a close contact rider, you will greatly appreciate Ultra ThinLine. This product reduces rider movement so horses can balance and focus. It does not amplify the seat, it reduces "background noise" so the rider's seat aids are clear.
100 Untrimmed

Warning: SPOILERS for The Man of Steel #3
The newest Superman villain, Rogol Zaar is finally starting to act in Brian Michael Bendis' The Man of Steel series. In The Man of Steel #3, Rogol Zaar has properly made his introduction to Superman by murdering the entire Kryptonian city of Kandor.
Rogol Zaar first appeared in Action Comics #1000. It was in that landmark issue that Rogol Zaar claimed that he was the reason that Krypton died. While it was obvious that Zaar was going to be a huge part of Brian Michael Bendis' run on Superman, the new villain hasn't done much. In The Man of Steel #3, Zaar makes up for lost time by slaughtering the last citizens of Kyrpton and pushing Clark Kent dangerously over the edge.
Related: Everyone Wants Rocksteady's Superman To Be Real But This Poster Looks Fake
For a villain that has done a whole lot of nothing since his first appearance, Rogol Zaar gets off to a raucous start in The Man of Steel #3. The issue opens with Rogol charging into the fortress of Solitude, ripping up Superman's robot Kelex and finally shattering the peace of lives of the citizens of Kandor.
It's a huge but welcome change from Bendis' The Man of Steel series so far which has consisted of Superman investigating and arsonist and suggestions that Lois Lane has left Clark Kent or that Lois and the couple's son Jon have died. (Even though there's no way that the either is true.)
The twist that Rogol Zaar is behind Krypton's destruction, in some way, doesn't have the impact the DC Comics wants but the killing of Kandor does make the monstrous villain slightly more interesting. At the very least, he's become a huge emotional and physical threat for Superman.
Kandor hasn't always been a huge part of the recent Superman canon. The city has drifted in out and of Superman's life and his protection. In the simplest terms, Kandor is a Kryptonian city that escaped the destruction of the planet by being shrunk into a bottle. All the residents survived, Supergirl has even come from Kandor in a few stoires, and Superman vowed to find a way to save the city. Now, thanks to Rogol Zaar, Clark will never have that chance.
The death of Kandor and its innocent citizens rocks Superman to his core. Superman is a complete mess when Supergirl, making her DC Rebirth debut in the Superman series, finds her cousin in front of the remains of Kandor. Together Superman and Supergirl vow to get revenge on Kandor. They use their super senses to locate Rogol Zaar and they finally meet the alien face-to-face.
The Man of Steel #3 ends before Kara and Clark are able to attack Rogol Zaar. Yet, considering the fact that the villain was waiting for them, the battle is probably not going to go in their favor. Rogol Zaar is going to destroy the man and girl of steel but at least Bendis' series will end up going somewhere other than vague teases and repeating the same few plot points.
Kandor probably isn't going to stay destroyed forever too. No death lasts in comics, not even that of a city. However, the destruction of Kandor does add some real emotional and compelling stakes to Superman's villain that hasn't been there before now. Rogol Zaar is nowhere near the villainous heights of Lex Luthor, Brainiac or even Doomsday.
Yet slaughtering an entire city of aliens, is a one helluva way to make an introduce yourself. It's up to the rest of the miniseries (and Bendis' run on Superman beyond The Man of Steel) to determine if Rogol Zaar lives up to the shocking first impression he make for Superman.

According to IT and networking giant Cisco, video is set to dominate the internet in the coming years.
In its white paper Cisco Visual Networking Index, published in June last year, the company predicted that by 2014, video in all its forms, including video demand and TV streaming, would exceed 91 per cent of global consumer traffic. Internet video alone will account for 57 per cent of consumer internet traffic.
This white paper lays down a stark challenge to PR professionals. Master video or miss out. No brand or agency can afford to lose that amount and range of traffic.
And the way consumers are viewing internet video is changing, as a result of smartphones, tablets and the newer Google TV and Apple TV. These innovations, which allow users to view the internet through their TV screens, are already creating consumer interest. A report from research agency Harris Interactive published in January and measuring 'buzz' showed 51 per cent of consumers were very or somewhat excited about Apple TV, while Google TV had 45 per cent of consumers excited. Furthermore, 54 per cent of people who were aware of Apple TV had actively discussed it, and for Google TV this figure was 48 per cent.
'Internet-connected TV has an enormous future,' says Steve Evans, director of technology and entertainment at Harris Interactive.
Whether Apple and Google hit the right formula or another platform emerges, it is certain that internet video will soon be infiltrating living rooms across the UK.
Here PRWeek presents examples of successful use of video, and outlines what every PR professional needs to know.
What can video add to a PR campaign?
- Extend the reach, longevity and impact of a campaign
- Cross international borders
- Get messages to those with little time or inclination to digest traditional media
- Potential for sharing beyond initial placement
- Reach busy journalists tied to their desks
- Help ensure consistent messaging across all media
- Direct engagement with audience
HOW I SEE IT - How branded content is changing
Luke Aviet, MD, GoViral
The big buzz word over the past seven to ten years has been viral. Brands wanted to produce a viral video that would be shared by millions of people. But that is slowly fading away. Now brands are looking to provide a different type of video such as product specification video.
For example, if you want to buy a new phone you might look at a product specification video that shows you all the features of an iPhone4 or the latest HDC smartphone, which is more informative and user-friendly than reading a load of specs or watching a 30-second TV advert.
Content can also help maximise sponsorships. Vodafone sponsors the McLaren Formula One team and Lewis Hamilton, and it is using that to provide content that adds value. There are many F1 sites and publications, as well as sports and lifestyle sites, and they would take the content because it is fresh and unique.

Top 10 things you shouldn't do when applying for a job
1. Don't randomly apply for jobs that you haven't got a realistic hope of getting.
It's a waste of your time and the recruiter's time. Go for roles that are a fit with your experience and qualifications – it's OK to apply for roles that will stretch you and give you that next step up, but if you have higher education qualifications and only a year or two of experience under your belt then applying for the role of Managing Director at Sony probably isn't a good use of your time.
2. Don't include stuff that's personal
Once upon a time we all put down our date of birth, marital status, number of children etc. on our CV's, but it's no longer necessary so don't put it in there – in fact it's illegal for an employer to ask for it from you.
3. Never lie.
Focus on the skills that you have, not those that you wish you had. A survey by CareerBuilder showed that 42% of employers questioned said they would consider a candidate who met only three out of five key qualifications for a specific role.
4. Stick to the two-page rule.
Try and keep your CV to two pages. With an average of over 60 CVs for every role, recruiters want to learn about you quickly. Making them trawl through an auto-biography that's pages long won't help you get through the door for an interview.
5. Don't fall into the font choice trap.
When your PC or Mac has so many fonts to choose from it's difficult to know which one to use. You shouldn't use anything fancy like a Brush Script or a curly style like Comic Sans. Keep it clean and professional with a sans-serif font like Helvetica or Calibri. If you want a more traditional feel then go for Garamond which is a more modern version of Times Roman.
6. Never include a photo
Unless you are applying for a role in-front of the camera or where a photo has been specifically requested then don't include one. They'll see what you look like at the interview.
7. Never apply without a covering letter.
This is your first chance in your application to surface a handful of key points that are relevant to the recruiter and to capture their attention, so make the most of it.
8. Don't ignore the formatting of your CV and covering letter
Getting the structure and presentation of your CV and covering letter is critical as it is the first impression that a recruiter will have of your skills and abilities. We've teamed up with LiveCareer to give you the best possible advice and guidance.
9. Don't send off an application without someone else checking it.
No matter how many times you check your covering letter and CV yourself, someone else will always find something wrong. A misplaced comma or simple spelling mistake such as "form" instead of "from" can make all the difference between you being on or off the shortlist. Do yourself a favour and get someone you can trust to check your application for you. Their input could make all the difference.
10. Don't dress for a night out when going for an interview
It sounds obvious doesn't it? But think about what you are going to wear. Ask yourself if you should dress formally, smart casual or casual. Unless you are going to work in a beach bar, casual is probably something you should never do for an interview. Recruiters will expect you to dress appropriately for the role and the workplace environment. What you wear speaks volumes and will make a big impression on your potential employer the minute you step through the door.

Should your business has any online factors (such as a internet site), then Web optimization is critical to the ongoing achievements within your business. You could possibly contain the most costly web page inside your market, but without the need of world wide web traffic (site visitors) to that web site, it can be effectively worthless. It's not just site visitors which you have to have, but qualified targeted traffic. A Best SEO In Perth can offer applicable, regular net traffic to your web site(s). This guide will allow you, to be a non-expert, to distinguish in between fantastic and terrible Search engine optimisation companies. There are various of each sorts, this guideline ought to assist you to discover the good types.
Search engine optimization needs to be implemented inside of a way that is productive in accomplishing your Search engine marketing targets and furnishing that each one essential significant existence within the Internet.
High quality Search engine optimization is a crucial expenditure in relation to producing productive expansion and advancement approaches.
Ineffective Search engine marketing implementation, renders your Web optimization attempts wholly ineffective as well as a waste of your respective revenue.
six issues you need to know and fully grasp prior to employing an Web optimization service provider:
one) Employing an Web optimization supplier ought to be seen being an expense in your enterprise. You shouldn't view it like a company expense, but instead a company technique and a powerful strategy for improving your organization presence inside of your online business sector. Try out not to start off your search using the intention of "buying some SEO". Using the services of an Seo service provider need to be considered fairly as selecting an personnel that understands and cares regarding your business and its on line aims.
two) The initial web site of Google (or any internet search engine) is everything. Couple of individuals ever drop by the second web site in the search engine results any more. Google is so excellent at becoming a search engine that people blindly have confidence in Google's ability to produce probably the most related success within the initially site. Think regarding how frequently you click by means of to the 2nd website page. This implies that in case your company isn't around the initially web page, it is really pretty much pretty much as good as nowhere. The top positions on webpage a person have the most clicks, which lower while you progress downwards on the page.
3) The 'big' key phrases are usually not all the things. It can be better being about the to start with site for any number of smaller search phrases, than endeavor to rank for more substantial search phrases and never be about the first web page whatsoever. One example is, an accountancy small business in Preston may well not rank with the highly competitive keyword 'accountant' (unless of course they've a lot of Search engine optimisation budget and time for you to hold out for rankings); even so the similar company could conceivably rank really for your search phrase 'chartered accountant Preston'. A very good Search engine optimisation supplier must study the keywords and phrases that the enterprise could realistically rank on web page a person for and also keywords and phrases that have sufficient search quantity being worthwhile to your business to test ranking for.
