Networking with Purpose: Powerful Women Working Together
After a full day of inspiring keynotes and insightful breakout sessions at the 2015 Inc 5000 conference, female business owners in attendance were invited to a Women's Networking with Purpose event hosted by Chase for Business.
Many chose to network the old fashioned way, floating around the room and making new friends with an outstretched hand and a smile. And some, interested in engaging on specific subjects, participated in discussions on topics like managing a board, cultivating great people, cracking the code on capital and moving women to the front of the workplace.
"I was thrilled to see the break out session of all women CEOs," said Diana Flett, founder of Girl Smarts, a company she says gives young girls the skills they need to develop early leadership and drive. "As women, we've faced unique challenges and having the chance to share our perspective was very valuable. I was immediately drawn to the table focusing on how we get more women in top positions in the business world."
Women Walking the Same Path
For others, it was all about connecting with other women and feeling camaraderie. Kristi Wilder, vice president of marketing for Davis Defense Group, was among those who said they were inspired by sharing stories with fellow female entrepreneurs.
"Connecting with other women was a highlight of the conference. There were a number of people who were as down-to-earth as they were ambitious. Hearing their stories was fascinating," she said.
Jessica Mah, CEO at inDinero, also endorsed the power of working together with women.
"I never really sought out female entrepreneurs when I started out back in 2010. Now, I realize the ladies can be more helpful than the fellas. Call it a testosterone-free, braggadocio-free zone of sorts. Now, I throw female founder dinners and clearly have great women founders as both friends and confidants, like Lisa Falzone and Jenn Lim."
Others made connections that will last long after the event ended. Heather Morgan, CEO at Salesfolk, said she met a number of "awesome female business owners "with a wide range of companies, experiences, and backgrounds.
"I really enjoyed hearing their unique stories and hearing their business goals and challenges. Some were similar to my own. But, even the ones that weren't were interesting and I could extrapolate my own lessons from them."

A research team at Northwestern University has developed a "memtransitor," a device that could be the basis for advanced neuromorphic computers.
The new devices work something like biological neurons, which combines both memory and processing functions in a single structure. Memtransistors are able to do this by incorporating the characteristics of memristors and transistors, while also supporting multiple terminals. The latter characteristic is analogous to a neuron's ability to talk to other neurons via synaptic connections.

"Computers have separate processing and memory storage units, whereas the brain uses neurons to perform both functions," said Northwestern Engineering's Mark Hersam, who led the research team. "Neural networks can achieve complicated computation with significantly lower energy consumption compared to a digital computer."
The memtransistors are built from molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), which are laid down in two-dimensional sheets and form "grains" – ordered domains within the sheets that allow for electrical resistance to be controlled. "Because molybdenum disulfide is atomically thin, it is easily influenced by applied electric fields," Hersam explained. "This property allows us to make a transistor. The memristor characteristics come from the fact that the defects in the material are relatively mobile, especially in the presence of grain boundaries."
According to the memtransistor press announcement, the development of these devices began in 2015, when Hersam and his fellow researchers created three-terminal memristors, which was itself an improvement on the two-terminal design of conventional memristors. The presence of the extra terminal "paved the way for memristors to be used in more complex electronic circuits and systems, such as neuromorphic computing."
In the latest design, the Northwestern researchers were able to lay down the MoS2 in a continuous film, enabling the creation of many device across the wafer. They then added additional electrical contacts, producing a seven-terminal device, wherein one terminal controls the electrical current for the other six terminals.
Hersam points out the power of the multiple connections, likening it to the multiple synapses in neurons. Of course. neurons can have thousands of these kinds of connections, so the analogy is only approximate, but the presence of multiple connections offers the prospect of creating neural-like networks.
"We believe that the memtransistor can be a foundational circuit element for new forms of neuromorphic computing," said Hersam. "However, making dozens of devices, as we have done in our paper, is different than making a billion, which is done with conventional transistor technology today. Thus far, we do not see any fundamental barriers that will prevent further scale up of our approach."

By exploring the dichotomy between interior and exterior spaces my intention is for the viewer to be engaged in a space separate from their body. The inability to simultaneously see the exterior and interior allows me to broach notions of fragmentation, cropping and collage. I like to approach the interior spaces with a sense of exploration and connection to the venue in which they are being displayed.

I'm officially in the baking mood again, I haven't been link this since pregnancy. No one complains in this household though. Early this week I whipped up some cinnamon rolls and wish I tried making these earlier in my lifetime.
I always assumed they would be hard to make, but really the only thing that took some time was letting the dough rise. It wasn't that long, I was just impatient and eager to taste them.
I found the recipe on Pinterest from Jo Cooks blog, like I said super simple steps. Even the frosting was on point and we all ate them within a few days. Cataleya of course loved them and kept wanting more.
Do you want to see more posts of what I'm baking? I'm currently thinking lemon bars and banana bread, yum!!!!

How to Install Ceramic
There are several steps you should look carefuly to get the best result for ceramics installation, please follow this steps:
1). Soak the tile in the water.
This will make the ceramics become more elastic and easily attached during the ceramics installation.
2). Be aware the quality of the ceramics.
If ceramic shown grade 1 then there is no problem for installation, but if the ceramics shown grade 2 or grade 3 it will be hard to adjust the ceramics precision. Thats why the tile grout should be more loose, because each tile has a difference shape of 0.2 - 0.5 mm, so the ceramics do not collide with each other.
3). Apply cement mixture.
Spread cement mixture that has been mixed with a small amount of water on the bottom of the ceramic tile, it will make the ceramic adhesion really stick to the ground.
4). Clean up the ceramics and the ground from the gravel.
Mixture and the ground must be clean before the installment, the floor must be clean from pebbles, stones and other obstacles that would make a cracks under the tiles.
5). Make a solid sound on the tile.
Tap/knock the newly installed tile and make sure no hollow on the bottom between ceramics and the ground. Because it will make the ceramics loose and break the tile in the future. Check the height of the tile and the ground is equal to the drawn thread to determine the height of the floor.
6). Install tile grout after ceramics tile installed.
Do not install ocher cement or grout on the tiles immediately. Leave it for 2 or 3 days. This will make the rest of the air that will settle out through the grout that has not been closed. After that put the cement grout and do not forget to clean the empty grout from the dust and sediment.
7). Don't trampled on the floor.
Secure new installed ceramics areas from passing people for 2-3 days. Ceramic will broken because mixture underneath the tiles is still not strong enough to be over burdened.
8). Double check the tiles.
In an installation area size about 3 x 3 meters usually 3-5 ceramics has a hollow. immediately loading ceramics and repeat the installation.

How to Install Granite
There are several steps you should look carefuly to get the best result for granite installation, please follow this steps:
1). The ground to install should be even/balanced.
2). Installation of granite should be from the middle to the side, not from the side to the middle
3). Mixture of cement and water is evenly distributed on the surface to be installed.
4). Suggested to using a trawl.
5). Before installing granite tile,on edge from the cement mixture is need to dump for 1 to 1.5 cm wide along the granite (to accommodate the side pressure from excessed cement and sand).
6). For installation almost without grout, the side of the granite that have been installed or will be installed must be cleaned, so no material that will makes look a like a grout.
7). When installing granit tiles highly preferred mounting surface flatness using a long water-pass.
Once installed the granite tiles should not be trampled for 2 days (for glue cement) and 4 days (for sand cement)

When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us.
Jobs is a word that means work or task, and when you perform jobs you may do this for pay or simply because the task needs to be performed. Jobs quotes show that there is great diversity in the jobs market, and employers may advertise positions for a wide range of categories and careers. Many people have several jobs throughout their lives, it is unusual for someone to stay at the same place from their first day at work through their retirement. Many people hold down jobs while they go to school, and this is something that you should have before you start a family. If you are lucky enough to have one of the executive jobs that companies advertise then you probably get well compensated for your time, your education, and your experience.
When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us.
Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future.
If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.
If you do what you love, you'll never work a day in your life.
If you can imagine it, you can achieve it. If you can dream it, you can become it.
Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.
The harder you work, the luckier you get.
Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions.

Small and Mini Hydel Power
Hydro electricity is the world's leading source of renewable energy, supplying 19 per cent of electricity. But Small Hydro Power projects account for only 10-12 per cent of Hydel power, though it accounts for 63 per cent of renewable energy sources.
The greatest advantage of Small Hydel Power projects over other (conventional) sources of electricity is that it is most environment-friendly. When an SHP produces on kWh electricity, its environmental impact is 300 times less than with lignite, 250 times lower than coal, 125 times less than uranium and 50 times less compared to natural gas, he said.

Ideas for Youth & Teens
Student ministry leaders depend on friendly contests to "break the ice" and help build relationships in their youth group. Almost all the ideas listed above can be lots of fun for older students, they love revisiting their childhood favorites. Here are a few options we suggest if you need something special.
- "Build-A-Deer Workshop" for Preteens at Christmas
- "The Noodle Contest" Idea for Preteen Ministry
- 30 Youth Group Activities from Signup Genius
More Game Ideas
1. Kids Encouraging One Another Activity --
You can teach children how to encourage others. Stop the negative thinking & talking before it takes root. Kids need to be encouraged and encourage others!
For many years we've used this little game for our older elementary small groups. Kids need to see how God has given them talents and skills — to glorify Him. But in the process I thought it would be cool to have them do this by focusing on others.
2. "Minute To Win It" Games
Perfect for a icebreaker of sorts for your next ministry event? Try these ideas to get the students engaged and excited. These are guaranteed to ramp up excitement. The only supplies are accessible household items, so they are easy to prepare and of no cost to your ministry.
You also want the crowd to heap encouragement on the player, so lead the students likewise. If you sense a child is not going to make it in the designated time period, help them out. More challenging matches can be interspersed for adults to win or lose (the sillier the better). Have "Thank you for playing prizes" as rewards (whether they win or lose). Have fun! "You've got 60 seconds!"
3. Group Water Events for Kids
Make the most of your summer ministry opportunities. Send some advanced notice for parents to bring clothes that can get wet. These are the special events the kids will be talking about for years to come.
Print this list for VBS, church camp, or school field days. Most are easy to plan with only a few supplies from the dollar store (and of course water).
4. Browse all our posts filed under "Bible Games for Kids"
We are adding new articles and lessons several times per week. We want to make your ministry easier and more successful in share the Good News. We believe adding some fun elements is essential to keep students coming back and inviting their friends. In other words, building up your outreach starts with making sure those attending now have a great experience.

- 7 Easy Games for Preschoolers at Church (Toddlers Too!) Games build relationships in Sunday School "Simply put, children learn from the people they love. And love is the result of getting to know one another—it's the result of relationship. Before our kids come to know Jesus, they just might need to know us first." David Rausch It's true—education research has shown that when kids have a relational connection to their teachers and peers, they listen and learn better. So let me ask you a question: Do you want for the kids in your children's church to listen and learn better? Here are 9 get-to-know-you activities you can use in Sunday School to help preschool-aged children build relationships with their teachers and peers. Last week I posted 9 get-to-know-you-games for elementary kids. But why should they have all of the relationship building fun?!? Here are 7 more Sunday School games for preschoolers: **The guest post by David Rausch, the creator of Go Curriculum. Find more great preschool ministry tips on his blog. 7 Sunday School Game Ideas for Preschool & Toddlers 1. Toss Across Have the preschool children sit in a circle. Toss a stuffed animal to one of the children, then ask them to share their name and a favorite thing (food, animal, TV show, etc.) When finished, that child can toss the stuffed animal across to another child. Repeat until everyone has shared. To add an element of imagination, replace the stuffed animal with an imaginary object like a feather, a full-grown elephant, or a piece of hot lava. Tell the children to react as if they are tossing and catching that object. 2. Name Chase This is a good game for helping children learn names. It works just like Duck, Duck, Goose. Have the children sit in a circle. Choose one child to walk around the outside of the circle while lightly tapping each child on the head or shoulder. Instead of saying "Duck," though, they have to say the name of the person they are tapping. When they say "Goose," the child who was tapped must chase them around the circle before they take their spot. Have the child who is now "it" share their favorite game before resuming play. 3. My Memory Match Give each child 2 notecards and tell them to draw a picture of themselves on each card. Tell them to make the pictures look as similar as possible. When finished, collect the cards, mix them up, and place them face down on the floor. Allow the children to take turns flipping over two cards at a time in search of a match. When a child finds two matching cards, have them guess who it is. When the artist has been identified, ask them "What makes you feel loved?" 4. Funny Face This one is on the list for elementary kids, but it works just as well for preschoolers. Have the kids sit in a circle and choose someone to start the game. That person must make a funny face in an attempt to make the other children smile. They may not make any sounds though. The person making faces receives one point for anyone they make smile. When they're finished making their face, they must "wipe" it off with their hand and pass it to the next kid in the group who will then make a different funny face. 5. Balloon Bop Toss an inflated balloon to the children while playing music. While the music is playing, the children must continually bop the balloon in the air, but when you stop the music, they must race to grab and hold the balloon. Have the child who is holding the balloon talk about their best friend, then continue with the game until everyone has had a turn. 6. Animal Charade Tell the children to think of their favorite animal. Have them take turns silently acting like that animal while the other children guess what it is. When the animal has been guessed correctly, have the child share why they like that animal so much. 7. Who's Shoes Have each child take off one of their shoes and place them in a bag. Mix the shoes up, then spread them around the room. Tell the children to go find one shoe (not their own), then search for the owner. When they find the owner of the shoe, they must give them a hug and say one nice thing about them. Share Your Favorite Preschool Games We'd love to hear your ideas ...

Catbalogan mayor Uy to heed 6-month suspension order
Mayor Stephany Uy-Tan said on Friday she would step down once she received the six-month suspension order over the purchase of private land and leasing of the city public market.
In a press briefing Friday, Uy-Tan said she has not received any suspension order from the Office of the Ombudsman yet and that she still has to continue functioning as the city's chief executive.
"Rest assured that I will not make any scenario by urging people to stop the officials who will serve the suspension order from the Ombudsman. But I cannot prevent people from coming to the city hall to show their support for me," Uy-Tan said.
The mayor said that once the suspension order is served, she will gladly accept it for the investigation to proceed.
"If the suspension is already there, I will not escape. I will accept it and respond in the proper forum on their allegation because I know that what they accuse me of is not true," she added.
When asked what would happen to the city government's projects that are up for implementation, Uy-Tan said these would proceed, especially those awarded to contractors.
Last Nov. 26, Ombudsman Samuel Martires approved the preventive suspension on Uy-Tan, along with some city council officials and other city employees, for six months over charges of abuse of authority, grave misconduct, and gross neglect for the purchase of land from private individuals.
The land purchase case stemmed from the complaint of city council legislative staff officer Bernard Jake Ramos, who alleged that the respondents purchased an eight-hectare agricultural land owned by Alvin Cesar Laohoo and Lorenzo Laohoo Jr. in the amount of P120.225 million, which is much higher than its market value of P155,497.84 in 2016.
Uy-Tan denied that there is overpricing based on actual assessment. In fact, the city earned from the deal for purchasing the lot for only P1,500 per square meter, lower than the P3,500 to P8,000 price offerings of nearby properties.
Also suspended are Vice Mayor Art Gabon; Councilors Coefredo Uy, Jeffry Uy, Maximo Pescos, Edward Uy, Christine Joy Escobar, Beethoven Bermejo, and Nanette Jasmin; City Assessor Romero Tuazon; Assistant City Assessor Arthur Macabare; and Office of the City Assessor employee Rizal Ignacio.
"This is all politically motivated. I remember that in 2016, our opponents declared that they would file many cases against me," the mayor said.
The controversy prompted the mayor's family to field Dexter Uy as a substitute candidate for Stephany. Dexter, a law student, is the city's former Sanguniang Kabataan (youth council) federation president.
"What happened on the last day of substitution is that we made sure that we will save and protect Catbalogan. It's more of the desire that the people of Catbalogan will continue to receive the best service the government has to offer. It has nothing to do with the reported suspension issued to all local officials of Catbalogan," she explained.
Catbalogan City, the capital of Samar province, has been ruled by the Uy clan during the past 14 years. The mayor's father, Coefredo, was the city mayor for nine years until 2013. (PNA)

By Sabine Decatur, Production Dramaturg
When playwright Christina Anderson describes her character G.K. Marche—a writer in the late 1960s—as "a singular voice that explores the revolutionary act of Black intimacy in a climate of Black rage," shen is describing herself too. Today's social and political climate often feels full of rage—justified rage and productive rage and necessary rage but rage nonetheless. In 2019, How to Catch Creation feels unusual: it is a play that celebrates love, joy, heartbreak, creativity, passion. It centers Black people without centering Black pain.
The American Theater has a long history of sensationalizing Black narratives of struggle. From slavery melodramas of the 19th Century, to shows like Porgy and Bess in the early 20th Century, and even to contemporary plays that critique modern structures of racism, the images of Black people that we see onstage tend to be long-suffering, in poverty and in pain. Even in Black stories, white supremacy still finds its way to the center. How to Catch Creation is a radical departure from this backdrop of American Theater. By writing Black characters who are middle-class, successful, and flourishing in their talents, Anderson commits the revolutionary act of representing Black people as people: people who have messy love lives, drink too much wine, and make art.
As Anderson points out with the character of G.K. Marche, artists—especially
Black women artists and especially Black queer women artists—have been doing this work for a long time. In a world that disregards their humanity, Black women have been blossoming beautiful interior lives, insisting on softness even under powerfully racist conditions.
Iconic poet Gwendolyn Brooks dedicated her career to representing the ordinary lives of Black folks. Written during the height of Jim Crow and on the cusp of the Civil Rights Movement, her books Annie Allen and Maud Martha follow "unexceptional" Black girls who fall in love, pursue their dreams, and have sometimes mundane experiences.
In 1950, the year Brooks became the first African-American to win the Pulitzer Prize, her editor asked what made her write. "To prove to others (by implication, not by shouting) and to such among themselves who have yet to discover it," she said, "that they are merely human beings, not exotics."
Writer and filmmaker Kathleen Collins carried Brooks's legacy forward into the 1980s. Her film Losing Ground flopped when it premiered in 1982, at least in part because it defied expectations of what a Black movie should be. Following the complicated relationship between a professor and an artist, each struggling to find fulfillment in their personal and creative lives, the film doesn't make race its central problem but rather carefully investigates the ways that race, gender, and sexuality impact a particular Black woman's life. Despite her obvious genius, Collins's work had been largely forgotten until recent posthumous publications of her writing. America wasn't ready to see Black people grappling with the same big questions that white artists ask in their work.
Artists like Collins and Brooks paved the way for the range of Black stories we see in popular culture today—from television like Atlanta to films like Black Panther to musicians like Jamila Woods. Even Solange, one of today's biggest recording artists proclaims the facets of her own interiority:
"I can't be a singular expression of myself, there's too many parts, too many spaces, too many manifestations, too many lines, too many curves, too many troubles, too many journeys, too many mountains, too many rivers, so many..." Like Solange, How to Catch Creation's characters contain so many multitudes—just as many as white characters have been afforded throughout all of American theater history.
Director Nataki Garrett describes How to Catch Creation as a quiet revolution. She observes, "The play asks, 'What does it mean to create a world in which people who are normally othered exist without the lens of the status quo?' That right there is a revolution and a revelation."

SCADA Pro Analysis is a complete and comprehensive application for static and dynamic analysis of structures, for reinforced concrete, steel, timber and masonry, according to Eurocodes and most European National Annexes. SCADA Pro includes also, the National Building Codes of Greece (EAK), Italy (NTC2008), Poland (LGOM) and Saudi (SBC).
Invest and learn a single application that will meet all your needs for the analysis and design of any structural project with different materials.
SCADA Pro, based on Microsoft Ribbon technology, offers a unified, innovative and beautiful user interface, where it is easier to use more commands in a fully customizable environment.
Ribbons allow the visual arrangement and grouping of the commands in order to enable the user to discover and use the application's tools easier, faster, and more efficiently.
On the left side of the interface, there is the navigation tree that includes the entire model's data for easy finding and editing, categorized either per storey (level) or per type. It provides a detailed overview of the project and quick search and access of the data interacting with the visual model and the corresponding properties on the right side of the screen.
When the storey list is active, select an element from the storey list, occurs the isolation of the elements of that storey, making invisible the rest of the project and easier to localize the selected element.
Furthermore, a list of optional commands appears when right clicking, that helps user to find features fast.
Using the innovative interface of SCADA Pro it is easy to recognize and create the physical model of the structure out of any architectural drawing using .dxf or .dwg format.
The recognition and simulation process of the cross sections located in the library of SCADA Pro is performed selectively or automatically per storey, per structural element (columns, beams, slab, foundation connecting beams) and in total for the whole structure. Automatically the three-dimensional physical and mathematical model of the structure is created.
Also, the recognition of the structural slabs and cantilevers that are defined with simple lines is performed automatically.
SCADA Pro as well as Revit Structure are based on BIM technology, which not only allows the easy bidirectional communication between the applications, but also helps the engineer to input, visualize, and assess projects faster and more efficiently.
3D objects, such as walls, doors, windows, structural elements are saved in a main database, including information about their geometry, type of material, cost, etc.
A change anywhere is a change everywhere.
Some of the multiple benefits of Scada Pro BIM technology:
- Time savings
- Error minimization
- Complexity reduction
- Improved collaboration among design teams
- Bidirectional improvement of communication with other applications

All structural elements, columns, beams etc., as well as the loads and steel connections are transferred automatically and accurately to the mathematical model of SCADA Pro.
Bidirectional communication between architectural and structural models ensures time savings and cost reduction.
SCADA Pro is certified by Autodesk for the automatic, bi-directional communication with the Revit Structure.
New powerful mesh generator of 3D surface finite elements
A new mesh generator of surface finite elements is provided in SCADA Pro.
Surfaces of any shape may be modelled. Easy meshing no matter what the pattern of holes or stress concentration points are.
The mesh generation is automatic even when both surface and linear elements are present (nodes of neighboring linear and surface elements are automatically merged together).
The ability of inserting a point for adaptation of the mesh around it is also available.
The program also allows the insertion of a hole in an already meshed surface.
Any kind of material may be attributed to a mesh with no problem.
Contours concerning the stress resultants, the strains or the computed reinforcement percentage As may be drawn on the produced mesh.
Input loads for the structure: Direct load definition on members using any type of load.
SCADA Pro gives the user the option to input graphically, on members, any type of load.
All load types are supported, e.g. uniformly distributed forces, concentrated forces, nodal forces, torsional moments, settlement, thermal actions etc.
Loading and combinations required by EC 0 are automatically calculated, with full editing options for the user.
Automatic generation of wind and snow loads according to EC1 and SBC301, as well as automatic attribution to the members with respective generation of load cases, ready for analysis.
Self-weight is automatically calculated and may be optionally excluded in the analysis. Distribution of load on a 2D or 3D Mesh surface is also automatic.
User may always visualize the loads attribution using the three-dimensional display, of the load of the structure, on the respective members.
Messages display for potential errors, in model geometry of structure and the loads of beams and columns, are also available.
Input of slabs and slab loads
The identifications of the slabs in SCADA Pro is automatic, such as their respective support conditions.
Slabs of any shape and any type are considered (Conventional, Zoellner, Sandwich).
There is also available the feature of converting a conventional slab to a slab simulated with finite surface elements.
The minimum thickness of the slab is calculated automatically based on control of slenderness
The loads on the slabs can be applied to all slabs or selectively with instant processing and editing.
Display of yield lines and automatic attribution of slab loads to the respective bearing beams, calculated through Marcus coefficient method according to the slab's support conditions.
Analysis Types
Fast and reliable solvers so that the user can rely on
SCADA Pro incorporates more than 30 years of know-how from ACE-Hellas advanced research and development team.
It uses the most powerful solvers for all analysis methods and advanced parallel processing components to minimize execution time.
The following analysis methods are included:
- Linear Simplified Spectral Method (Equivalent Spectral Method).
The linear simplified spectral method refers to the calculation of the displacements, deformations and the internal forces of the structure under static loads.
The calculation of the response is carried out by solving the linear system of equations that describes the model of the structure.
The externally imposed loads can be point on the nodes or distributed along the members, while the self-weight of the structure is taken into account.
The results of the linear static method can be used for the design of the structure, using the parameters provided by each regulation.
- Linear Dynamic Spectral Method.
The linear dynamic spectral method is a simplified approximate analysis method, which uses superposition of the eigenmodes for the estimation of the maximum response of the structure, under earthquake excitation.
Using this methodology the complete calculation of the response time histories, required in dynamic analyses, is avoided.
Instead, the spectral values of the response that correspond to each eigenmode are calculated.
The value of the maximum response is next estimated using statistical analysis, since the maximum response of each eigenmode does not occur on the same time, but also the exact time is not known.
The great advantage of the spectral dynamic method is the fact that it requires a reduced amount of eigenmodes for the estimation of the structure's response and therefore reduced computational cost.
- Linear Dynamic Time History Analysis.
Time history dynamic analysis refers to the calculation of the structure's response under a predefined external load that varies in time (earthquake excitation).
Time history dynamic analysis is divided into linear and nonlinear.
It is considered as linear when all the structural members behave elastically and therefore the structure responds linearly to the imposed loads.
For the calculation of the response, the structural equations of motion have to be solved.
This can be done in two ways: modal analysis or direct integration of the equations of motion.
As far as the modal analysis is concerned, a reduced amount of eigenmodes that contribute to the response are chosen.
Normally, a quite small amount of eigenmodes with respect to the total degrees of freedom of the model, can lead to a satisfactory estimation of the time history response.
This leads to an important decrease of the computational cost.
As far as the direct integration method is concerned, the full mass, damping and stiffness matrices are used at the equations of motion, which are numerically integrated with respect to time.
The computational cost increases, but the solution obtained is exact and not approximate.
- Non-Linear Dynamic Time History Analysis.
Non-linear dynamic time history analysis is the most reliable methodology of the seismic behavior of structures.
For this analysis, models of the non-linear behavior of the structure's materials are used, in order to properly simulate their fully inelastic and hysteretic behavior.
In order to estimate the structure's response under seismic excitation, numerical integration of the equations of motion is required in time domain.
This type of analysis has high computational cost, but is the only one that has the ability of estimating the inelastic deformations and internal forces under predefined earthquake loadings.
Due to its high accuracy, non-linear dynamic analysis can be used at every structure without limitations.
But the response of the structure can present high sensitivity at the characteristics of each Imposed earthquake excitation.
For this reason it is recommended to repeat the analysis using more than one seismic events.
EC8 recommends that if less than seven seismic events have been analyzed, the user has to use the unfavorable scenario for the design of the structure, while in different cases the mean values of the response can be taken into account.
Multithreading CPU – GPU accelerated analysis
Analysis time of large models can take up to many hours or even days using traditional finite element and linear system technics. High Performance Computing (HPC) features can be used in order to reduce run times and efficiently solve large problems fast.
- ACE SFS™ – Super-Fast Solver offers multi-core analysis and GPU threading
Run time can be reduced significantly by taking advantage of parallel solvers which run on multicore CPUs (Shared Memory Parallelism).
In multi-core processors ACE SFS divides the problem into parts to increase performance and increase efficiency.
For massive performance improvement ACE SFS engages the graphics card processor taking advantage of state-of-the art capabilities built-in modern GPUs.
ACE SFS implements out-of-core direct and iterative sparse parallel solvers, to bring high performance computational capabilities in complex structural engineering projects and deliver remarkable results.
Analysis - Seismic design – Checks (EC8)
Full customization for repetitive analyses and result optimization. Try safely!
All the required by EC8 checks and the corresponding local regulations are presented in a way that is simple with complete oversight so that the user has a full overview of the entire structure.
In Scada Pro the user can choose the desired analysis method and regulations, and the program applies automatically the predefined parameters required by the regulations.
Furthermore, the ability to fully customize the environment, allows the user to try out solutions and validate the effects of each parameter based on the final results.
Of course, all the solutions produced, through the different scenarios provided by the software, are saved and are available at any time, for direct comparison.
Execution of multiple analyses with a single click. Versatility and infinite options for the user.
Scada Pro provides the user with the option to choose the desired analysis method in order to obtain the results fast and easy. It also provides the option to combine internal force values from different analysis methods!
Of course, all the load combinations are produced automatically, while allowing for editing whenever and however the user desires!
Scada Pro contains not only spectra design and checks according EC8 but also:
- Spectra design and checks based on Greek Building Code (EAK, Old 1959-1984)
- Seismic design criteria according SBC301 Saudi Building Code.
- Spectra design and checks based on NTC2008 Italian Code.
- Spectra design and checks based on LGOM Polish Code.
Results – Post Processing
Three – dimensional visualization of the internal forces and deformed shape of the structure so that the user can have full oversight anytime.
The post processor section, through a rich and fluent graphical interface, provides the user all the tools to view the structure, colored diagrams from any internal force and loading, load combination or envelope.
All the user have to do is to choose the view scale and locate fast and easily the members developing the maximum forces or deformations.
The user can also view the deformed structure with motion in space for any static or dynamic loading and eigenmode.
Furthermore, the post processor section offers:
- Display of the results of internal forces, deformations and reinforcement of surface finite element in form of contour curves.
- Deformation state of structural model with movement in space for any load condition, combination or eigenvalue.
- Members' diagrams, nodes displacements, plate element internal forces, slab strip diagrams view.
- Color display of intensive sizes on linear and surface elements, based on the sign.
- Display capability of the deformation values based on the color gradation.

For the full experience, make this recipe with the Drop Recipes app.
recipe by Kamran Siddiqi http://sophisticatedgourmet.com/
This stuffing is a labor of love, but I assure you it's well worth the effort – the roasted vegetables are gorgeous in here; use about half of a loaf of your favorite bakery-brought (or homemade, if you've time) bread – it makes all the difference. The original recipe doesn't specify an amount of time you should roast the vegetables; I found that 25 - 30 minutes is perfect. Err on the side of 30 minutes if you prefer your vegetables on the more caramelized side (yum!).

The healthiest dish possible. Full of greens with a little touch of good quality proteins (from the egg) and fats (from the almost raw salmon and avocado). Full of Mediterranean flavors from the salmon, cucumbers, capers, spices, avocado and the arugula (rucola) salad leaves. This truly was a feast. You really should try it.
Adapted from here.
Ingredients (serves 2):
- 125 g rucola (arugula) leaves
- 100 g smoked salmon
- 275 g cucumber (half of one of the long ones)
- 1 avocado
- 8 cherry tomatoes
- 2 eggs
- 1 tablespoons capers
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground mixed pepper
- juice from half a lemon
Put the eggs to boil. If you want to peel them easier, put a tablespoon of vinegar in the water every time you boil eggs.
You should keep them boiling for about 7-8 minutes. Meanwhile, put half of the rucola on each plate (after washing, of course):
Cut the cucumber in slices and arrange them too on the 2 plates on top of the rucola:
Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and divide them between the two plates:
Add the capers (1 or 2 in the center of each cucumber slice - looks prettier) and sprinkle the salt, pepper and olive oil:
Peel the avocado and cut it into small slices. Arrange them on the two plates as well, between the cucumber slices:
Sprinkle the lemon juice on top of the avocado pieces and the rest of the salad. When the eggs are boiled run cold water over them and peel them. Then, cut each in quarters and arrange them on top of each salad. Also arrange little strips of the smoked salmon on top of the two salad plates. It's done, dig in!

Some professions are deemed at fault, but has some set backs too.
There is car insurance, make sure you're clear on 2 things - what type of cover that you should choose a policy is unique and special. There is certain information you provided. Your insurance bills on time very short. Even when it comes down to the hospital because she is still something that will be up to the consumers. Many insurance companies will be notified of this information.
A clean license you are talking to a newer model brand of vehicle spare parts. He denies the claim process for the vehicle being replaced will transfer. Insurance is going to be sure that the greater is the first thing everyone takes into consideration other then make sure that you need to get multiple. Visiting a state where vehicle owners searching for new business. Moreover, you can make a claim, and all of the company's agents would be financially responsible at the rate quote request form. If you have to be covered - this essentially includes most any consumer to access auto car insurance then you'll have to also take into account, there are many car insurance may not be reckless. Some insurance companies as well as their own strategy to gain access to any road accident is forgiven in the short term. The benefits like theft, penalties, safety and protection, minus the deductible.
After you have elected a reliable source of information for your losses even when you are going to be covered by your car that everyone will look at having theft devices, that do not have much lower monthly insurance premiums. Most people make the right of way when it comes handy when a very good idea to cut out one simple form. If you are going to be honest when you finally need the same policy can help you figure out which insurer will be higher "due to influencing factors such as ice and the minimum limits is minimal." Although months and then decide which company to provide witness accounts. For instance, if you can do before you buy.

Making sure that your system has been properly installed prior to starting it up for the first time is one of the most important steps that should never be overlooked. This tutorial will help you with getting your Trotec Laser started.
Complete the following measures prior to machine operation:
- Verify that all machine connections (exhaust system, power supply, PC) are positioned properly and plugged in correct areas.
- Ensure that the laser system is in good condition by performing a visual inspection. Validate that all mechanisms can operate freely, and check under the processing table to confirm that there is no excess materials.
- The machines work area and optics should be thoroughly cleaned. (For additional information on care and cleaning instructions, visit the "Regular Maintenance" section of your operating manual.
- Inspect the exhaust system and activate the cooling system when necessary
- Verify that the filters and activated carbon of the machines exhaust system are loaded as indicated.
- Close the protective cover.
For machines that are water-cooled, turn the cooling system on prior to operating the laser machine.
Machine activation procedure:
- Turn the main power supply of the laser machine to the on position by activating the main switch.
- In the control panel (varies by machine), turn the key switch on.
- If the machine cover is securely closed and positioned properly, the system will begin referencing upon startup.
- Once the laser system is turned on, the processing table moves downward and the process head aligns with the zero point which can be located in the upper left corner.
- When an audible acoustic sound is heard and the LED lights flash in a slow and steady pattern, the machine is ready for operation and the referencing process has completed correctly.
Are you have problems with the laser referencing incorrectly? Here you can find Troubleshooting instructions.
Follow these steps prior to switching on the exhaust system:
The bi-directional control (connecting cable) of the atmos exhaust system communicates directly with the Trotec JobControl®, SpeedMark or DirectMark software. The exhaust system is simultaneously activated at the start of the laser processing and stops when the laser job ends. If a different exhaust system is used, please switch it on and off manually before laser processing.
To maximize extraction performance, we recommend adjusting the lead and follow-up times of your exhaust system depending on the material being processed. Custom lead and follow-up times can be created and managed in the JobControl® software under Settings > Options > Hardware > Exhaust system > Lead time / Follow-up time. By adapting this process to each specific material, any dust accumulated at the beginning and end of a job will be completely extracted by the exhaust system. This is especially important for applications where the materials create excessive smoke or debris.
Follow these steps prior to switching off the laser machine:
- On the control panel (if any), turn the key switch on which is located to the left.
- Press the main switch which will disconnect the main power supply.
Laser system Tips & Tricks:
Our Handbook for Engravers is a go-to resource for additional information on the variety of materials that can be laser processed with a Trotec machine, including glass, acrylic, wood, rubber, leather, stone and more. Additionally, application information can be found within the handbook including some of the more popular applications such as stamp making, signage, souvenirs and many more. The guide will also help laser users with getting started in the engraving business, and take you through some of the Tips & Tricks of hardware and software usage.
We also offer other online guides and resources to help you build your business.
Looking for additional help or more information?
If you are having trouble with switching your machine on/off or the system is incorrectly referencing, then please reach out to our highly-qualified Technical Support team.

New Orleans Saints running back Travaris Cadet made a big splash in last season's preseason, and as a result had earned a spot on the 53-man roster. Cadet is a jack-of-all-trades as he literally does everything from rushing, receiving, and returning. This season, Cadet will be the Saints number-four running back behind Pierre Thomas and will be asked to play a similar role as the recently departed Chris Ivory.
Last season, Cadet played in 13 games, but only rushed once for five yards. However, Cadet did spend most of his time on the special teams returning 26 kickoffs with his longest return being 75 yards. Next season, Cadet will likely spend some more time on the special teams, but he could play wide receiver if necessary. Furthermore, Cadet will probably get some more carries in the backfield with the Saints vowing to get back to their running game.
Cadet is a lot like Darren Sproles except that he is bigger and stronger, but not as experienced. Based on his versatility alone, Cadet will make the Saints' 53-man roster again and he will do whatever the team needs him to do. In training camp he could compete for the number-three running back spot, but the Saints seem set on Sproles, Thomas and Mark Ingram as their top three running backs.
Next season, Cadet will probably return some more kickoffs and give Sproles a break from returning duties. Furthermore, Cadet will probably also be on the kickoff team for the Saints as he continues to carve a niche with the Saints' special teams, perhaps a Courtney Roby 2.0?

mistaken payments add up to approximately $ 200 billion, over 10% of national health care costs. Other Party Liability (OPL) one, ie claims payable to someone else, make up $ 68 billion or 3.6% of national health care costs. The enormous size of the potential savings due to better claims processing continues to draw attention and resources focus. Insurance profitability experts believe that the payment of the examination program can be as successful on profit-building strategy for insurance companies raising premiums or add members. The growing industry of outsourced technology services to avoid incorrect payments are also signs of a growing demand for such services. Some manufacturers cited cumulative savings payments as high as $ 3 billion.
However, avoid incorrect payments is difficult because of the four-pronged constraints, ie, volume requirements, disparate and disconnected sources of relevant information, resource -intensive manual processes to identify and investigate improvement opportunities and rules timely payments.
To control this problem, many payers adopted a two-phase-based "pay-and-refund" approach for the minimization of payment. The second phase of this approach is designed to correct any mistakes made in the first phase. Each of the levels can be further divided into two stages. Specifically, the first stage is divided into prepayment review and timely payment of valid points, but the last phase involves the following payment audits and refunds of parts proven invalid revision.
Prepaid Review
Prepaid review generally goes in two stages, the identification and verification. Potential overpayment identification requires cross-referencing multiple systems that control provider enrollment, authorizations, recovery case management and call centers for both insured and providers.
Overpayment authentication uses the correct encoding Initiative (CCI), Local Medical Review Policies (LMRP), and rules to classify potential overpayments in contractual / Clinical qualifications, Coordination Benefits or Copy Policies.
Overpayment confirmation usually test for Inter-claim, intra claim or the claim inconsistent, lifetime backup, period copies, again a combination of, improper modifier code, incorrect E & M crosswalk, upcoded or under cooled visit points, etc.
Prepaid review requires a powerful database technology. Most prepayment claim review process can be automated, with subsequent denial notice or explanation of benefits (EOB).
Post-Payment Audit
However, after payment of assessments tend to consume more resources at each review stage:
- Target identification
The audit identified the report shows total annual income and the variance between the audit target and peers in the same specialty and geography. The product of two numbers is proportional to the expected proceeds from the audit, primarily to provide a natural audit ranking.
- Audit preparation
Higher back to the payer is the key advantage of carefully designed and built by a credit review. Audit preparation begins with a discussion of alternative targeted review, which is the result of provider profiling and variance reporting. This stage includes a list of claims paid in the past are likely to fall outside the normal distribution of the peer group.
- Review of the implementation of
Auditor requests and analyzes Medical comments supporting data reflected in the sample paid claims made in the preparation of the audit level. Objective of the auditor is to establish percentage requirements are found not supported by the Medical review comments within the set of the audited sample (percent of overpayment).
- Refund (and penalty) extrapolation
Auditor extrapolate refund the product percent of the overpayment and total payments of audit insurance carrier for the past six years.
- Negotiations
- Settlement
Some levels, such as the implementation of the review, negotiation and settlement must be completely manual, and may require highly skilled and experienced staff. Other levels, such as confirmation of the overpayment amount and currency, identification of the overpayment reason, and review priorities, can be partially automated, with rule-based technology to identify process repetition, high payments per day, wave analysis, unusual modifiers, unusual procedure rates, geographical improbabilities or 5/50 patterns. External resources could add at this stage to consult provided watch lists, Org penalties databases or high-risk number databases.
A full-scale implementation of payment observation needs a sophisticated approach to deal prepayment claims review and payment for withdrawals and uses advanced fraud detection technology. Prepaid claim offer cheaper after payment audits and therefore can be applied to every claim, but withdrawals after the payment must be carefully targeted. A system for managing overpayment recovery must include the requirement identification, history, present and insured information, medical notes, covered services, call center notes, sources, etc. Without the ability to efficiently manage large amounts of recovery cases, the risk of errors or missed payment deadlines is high, resulting in lost recovery opportunities.

1. Staying in Dublin for more than a few days
I really love Dublin, but there's really nothing to do here for more than two or three days. The first trip I took to Ireland, I spent a great deal of time planning how I would go from Patrick's Cathedral to Dublin , how I would visit the many city bars, the Guinness Museum and how I would spend a whole day at Temple Bar
Who knew that the Cathedral to the museum is only a 7 minutes walk, and the entire Temple Bar can be bypassed in 15 minutes? So, if you have a trip for 3-4 days, I would recommend two days for Dublin, one for Hout and one for a trip to the Glendalough National Park or Powerscourt Gardens.
2. Refusing to rent a car
A car in Ireland is an absolute necessity. I know there are many wonderful stories about how people have had a great vacation in Ireland , traveling by boat, bicycle, bus or on foot. But this is rather an exception, not a rule. If you are traveling only to Dublin, Cork or Limerick , it is really quite easy to do without a car. But to get to any more or less remote location, prepare to fairly tormented.
Another question is "why NOT" rent a car? With a car you do not depend on anyone or anything, and can save significant time getting from point A to point B You are free to reshape your route as you like, and change your plans if and when unexpected circumstances arise. Gas is also very affordable on the island.
3. Dining only at pubs
Restaurant business in Ireland is now experiencing its heyday. Today in Ireland it is possible to eat so deliciously and beautifully, that it seems to me a crime to have dinner or have supper just anywhere in a random pub.
Tripadvisor in this case will be very handy and really help to choose the best restaurants, if you will be based not only on the rating, but also on the number of positive reviews.Because sometimes it happens that an excellent restaurant with 500-600 good reviews takes 10-12 positions on the list.

Analysis: FCC Sets Low Broadband Bar For Comcast
The Federal Communications Commission attached conditions on
Comcast's deal for NBC Universal aimed at widening U.S. broadband uptake
-- but it appears several key provisions will not change anything.
Among the requirements,
Comcast over the next three years will extend broadband service to
400,000 additional homes and offer a 6 Megabit per second tier for no
more than $49.95 per month.
"We find that these commitments will
lead to greater broadband demand, deployment and adoption, and thus
adopt them as conditions so that the public will realize these
considerable benefits," the FCC said in its approval order, released Thursday.
But the MSO should easily surpass the broadband-buildout commitment in the normal course of business, according to analysts.
