White sandy beaches and crystal clear, blue waters: you are not in Boracay, but in the coastal resort town of Pagudpud, Ilocos Norte. Pagudpud is found at the northernmost tip of Luzon Island, in the Philippines. Unlike Boracay, however, this seaside town is a bit more tranquil. Natural beaches can still be found, with minimal development for tourism.
Recently, Pagudpud gained popularity among beach-goers because it offered another beach destination option that one can reach without flying.
Read on to find out about the 12 best things to do in Pagudpud, Philippines.
Witness the beautiful landscape of Pagudpud as well as the majestic sight of the Bangui Windmills; the first wind farm in the Philippines.
There's more to Pagudpud than its pristine beaches. Read on to find out the Top 10 things you can do in Pagudpud, Philippines.
1. Enjoy the sand, sea, and quiet at Saud Beach
For travelers weary of crowded beaches and commercialized sites, Saud Beach is the perfect place to be. Because Pagudpud is not as developed as the resort towns in the Visayas like Boracay, there are not as many people and not as many vendors peddling their wares. You can lie on the sand without anyone disturbing you. You can enjoy a dip in the clear waters without jostling for space. Saud Beach only has several beach resorts along its coast, so it is best to book with your resort of choice before going to Pagudpud. During the summer season (March to May), rooms may get booked pretty quickly.
Saud Beach Resort Hotel
Address: Barangay Saud, Pagudpud, Ilocos Norte
Price: from 72 USD (double occupancy) to 120 USD (quadruple occupancy) per night

2. Visit a "Mountain with a Hole" Bantay Abot Cave
Bantay Abot literally means "a mountain with a hole", which exactly describes this attraction found in Barangay Balaoi, Pagudpud. You can marvel at this beautiful rock formation and wonder how the sea was able to carve out this cave in the mountain. This is the perfect spot for a shot for Photography enthusiasts, while nature-lovers can sit back and fathom the power of nature.

3. Check out the Timmangtang Rock
Before you reach Bantay Abot, you will encounter another rock formation called Timmangtang Rock. This rock formation is much smaller, although not as majestic as Bantay Abot, it is its pair. According to locals, Timmangtang is the male in the pair, while Bantay Abot is the female. When one is inside Bantay Abot, you can see its lover, Timmangtang. Both formations make up what is called "Lovers' Rock."
4. Explore the Blue Lagoon, Malingay Cove
From the town center, you can reach Blue Lagoon beach by renting a tricycle. The pristine white beach can be found in Maira-Ira Cove.

During the northeast monsoon season (November to June), the winds from the north can bring waves that are big enough for surfing. This quiet beach will not be as crowded as those in Boracay, perfect for a leisurely swim.
5. Go island hopping: Dos Hermanos Islands
Dos Hermanos islands is named because of the legend of two brothers who vowed to stay together no matter what. Legend has it that the brothers were lost at sea during a storm. Locals could not find a trace of them, after which the two islands "grew" out of the sea. The islands can be reached through a sandbar that appears during low tide. Visitors should explore the islands with extra care because of their rocky and slippery formations.

Their desire to remain by each other's side was so strong that after death, they were transformed into two, side-by-side, identical rocks. Visitors love to swim out to the islands and look out onto the impossibly blue water, swim, or watch the sunset.

Success in today's global market depends on versatility and consumer-oriented services. If the consumer interest is not present, market failure will ensure, the impression of quality of one's product or service. This is the issue facing today's pharmaceuticals industry, where it is becoming more difficult for brands to survive financially. Many organizations within the sector are failing to conduct effective marketing campaigns to meet changing habits seen within target audiences. Further, these companies have not demonstrated the adaptability to function adequately in varying local markets.
In marketing positioning, pharmaceutical firms must have targeted, clearly defined campaigns that support the value proposition. It is not enough for positioning to simply relate on a scientific or attribute level; the quality of a product will not equate to fiscal success. Rather, new drug products must resonate emotionally with the consumers. In order to develop brand loyalty an emotional connection is vital. Firms can strengthen this connection through the support of brand ambassadors. It is these individuals who embody the corporate identity; this is done through their appearance, demeanor, values and morality.
Social media must become a more prominent component of the industry's marketing strategies. Through the careful analysis of comments and views on digital resources, firms can better connect with their target audiences and possible clientele. By engaging with these individuals, rather than merely talking to them via advertisements, drug companies can better grasp what is popular with audiences, and how they can adapt their policies to suit these changing habits and needs.
An understanding of customs and expectations across varying global markets must be an imperative for increased brand success. Different strategies and marketing tools must be utilized in different regions, particularly based on industrial status of the market in question. For instance, the rationale of luxury in emerging markets is distinctive from those in developed markets. Generalized marketing campaigns will not succeed across the board. It is more effective to design more ethnically or nationally structured marketing campaigns conducted on a slightly lesser- i.e. regional-scale.
Cultural considerations are also imperative for the pharmaceutical industry. Each market requires a distinctive and carefully cultivated approach. This is exemplified in the views on dosing habits. In Japan, for example, it is a point of emphasis to design ophthalmic products where more frequent dosing is utilized. This is in contrast to western countries such as the United Kingdom or the Netherlands; in these markets less frequent dosing is preferred. These cultural variations must be taken into consideration when communicating with and educating customers. The brand value must be conveyed in a way that resonates with each target market's understanding the range of aspects at play, in relation to the buying process in each market, is also crucial to building brand proposition knowledge in the minds of patrons.
Pharmaceutical corporations must adapt or crumble. The business world is rife with examples of businesses that failed to adapt to changing habits and are no longer in existence. Consider Western Union telegrams, Blockbuster Video stores, Sharper Image stores or Commodore computers. These were once some of the most dominant brands in the world. However, these businesses fell apart because they became stagnant and were overtaken by dynamic business competitors. Companies using innovative technology and evolving marketing approaches have been able to conquer markets and displace their predecessors. Consider the likes of Wal-Mart, Apple, and Nike. These corporations were late entrants into existing markets; however, they eventually surpassed their business rivals and have become the pinnacle firms within their individual industries. Pharmaceutical companies must learn from these successes and failures, so to shape a brighter future for themselves.

BIU Vice-Chancellor Interview With TV9: Key Highlights: MD In Barbados.
July 29, 2018, Hyderabad, India
Vice-Chancellor Interview with TV9 Telugu, News Media Outlet in Hyderabad, India: Key Highlights
During Visit to India, Mr. Ronald Jones, Vice-Chancellor of Bridgetown International University, Former Minister of Education, Science, Technology and Innovation, Barbados had an interview with the regional news media outlet TV9 Telugu.
In the interview, Mr. Jones was joined by Indian Academic Advisory Board Member of the University, and Dr. Bhanu Prakash Garg, India Admissions Director of the University.
In the interview, Mr. Jones was asked about Barbados and University Facilities, programs of the University, and how the same will benefit Indian students.
Explaining the University's modern facilities and well-equipped campus specially designed keeping the behavior and needs of technology-savvy students in mind, Mr. Jones said: "We have a modern campus with the requisite equipment, requisite technology, and that technology goes quite deep. Today's student is a technology savvy student, and therefore it's not simply talking and reading, and all of that - you have to emerge students in technology through simulation, animation, all of that and the technology that will be exposed to you will bring medicine alive capturing that young capacity."
"You have a well-equipped campus to give them all of the requisite skills, knowledge, and attitude that is in need to be successful. We preach excellence. No student today can be mediocre," added Mr. Jones, while addressing the question of the reporter.
Emphasizing the quality of education and US-based curriculum of the University, Mr. Jones stressed the quality and academic standards maintained at Bridgetown International University with multiple quality checks, including:
✓ Quality of curriculum;
✓ Quality of instruction; and
✓ Quality of teachers/ professors.
Talking about inclusion, Mr. Jones said that Bridgetown International University is open for Indian, Barbadian, and all the medical aspirants worldwide. In the interview, Mr. Jones also addressed the concern over accommodation facilities while pursuing MD in Barbados stating that Bridgetown International University offers a comfortable accommodation to provide the students with a comfortable and normal routine life in a country that invites persons to come to be a part of the entire environment.
Explaining the facilities and infrastructure of Barbados, Mr. Jones said: "Barbados is not a large country, but it has the prerequisites for the people to be comfortable in their studies."
Barbados is not a large country, but it has the prerequisites for the people to be comfortable in their studies." – Mr. Ronald Jones, Vice-Chancellor, Former Education Minister of Barbados
Discussing safety and security at the national level of Barbados, Mr. Jones affirmed: "Currently we have just over 500 Indian students in Barbados, and we never had even one complaint to date."
During the course of the interview, Mr. Bhanu Prakash, India Admissions Director, also explained the eligibility criteria to get admission in the University and study medicine in Barbados. Mr. Prakash emphasized that since Bridgetown International University is being recognized by the Medical Council of India, NEET is mandatory to get admission to Bridgetown International University. Once a student qualifies NEET, he/ she can apply for admission to the University to study MD in Barbados.
Mr. Prakash also apprised the audience that while Bridgetown International University is situated in Barbados, an island country in North America, it provides a gateway to medical aspirants looking for higher medical education, residency or post-graduation medical courses in the United States or willing to pursue a medical practice in the US.
When asked by the interviewer "Why Bridgetown International University," Mr. Prakash went on to explain some of the unique propositions offered by Bridgetown International University making it an exceptional choice amidst a situation when there are so many Caribbean medical universities. Some of the facilities that Mr. Prakash and Indian Academic Advisory Board Member put the spotlight on:
✓ Technology-based medical education;
✓ Animated videos to elaborate medical concepts;
✓ Affordable Fees;
✓ University managed accommodation and food;
✓ USMLE focused curriculum;
✓ English medium of instruction; etc.
Being asked about security, safety, and care of the students in Barbados, Mr. Jones assured all the parents and guardians that their students would be in safe hands and secured environment. He said: "The Barbadian culture is a mixed culture. It provides a kind of ethos which would allow anybody from anywhere to come and to be a part of the total structure and the total environment."
Highlighting the special arrangements for the girls' safety, Mr. Jones added that separate residential spaces are maintained for boys and girls, and appropriate security is maintained in the entire campus area. Mr. Jones said: "Peace must always be kept. That is paramount. We see persons coming to our shores as part of the Barbadian environment. So, the same level of safety and security that is allowed for Barbadians is allowed for everybody else. Barbados is a tourist-oriented society Our major foreign exchange earnings are from tourism, and as a result of that, we have built up very strong structures to ensure that persons are kept in a safe and secure environment. You will have security around and sure not to intrude on the lives of anybody but to ensure that anybody coming from outside would not disrupt the lives of those students. So, I don't think parents need to be worried."
"Peace must always be kept. That is paramount." - Mr. Ronald Jones, Vice-Chancellor, Former Education Minister of Barbados
Emphasizing the infrastructure development and digital progress in Barbados, Mr. Jones, on a lighter note, said: "Our country is extremely well equipped technologically. We have a penetration rate that is about 140%. Everybody has two cell phones, and all of these kinds of things: good Wi-Fi connection, good internet connection. So, you can get to your parents in a click."
"Global citizens, connected globally, get to your parents definitely, stay in contact with them so that you will feel at home in Barbados because your mother or father is next door," said Mr. Jones concluding the interview on a positive note.

So, last night I watched Tina Fey get the Mark Twain Award for American Humor. And I really don't know why I cried. Is there a reason to cry? She wasn't crying!
But, people were saying such nice things about her. And showing clips of everything she's done. And I just thought of Conan's last episode of "The Tonight Show" when he said, "Be kind and amazing things will happen to you." And honestly, look at him. And look at Tina Fey. Look at what these people have done and what they didn't do to get it {i.e. be assholes.}
She mentioned in her speech that she used to go to the Second City and sit on the bench and watch Steve Carrell in awe and she'd do improv with Amy Poehler and imagine the days when they'd be able to write and perform comedy professionally... and they did it! They did it! They moved to Chicago and they had these crazy dreams and they were successful and they opened tons of doors and it just means a lot.
It's like those intense yogis {not the bears} who have yoga gurus who they worship and respect and live by their mantras. Well that's what it felt like. It felt like I was watching my yoga guru. Except my yoga guru uses fake swear words like "nerds" and calls herself a "stone cold bitch". And that, my friends, is the kinda person I worship and respect.

The Boss sits at a conference table with Wally and Dilbert. The Boss says, "Maybe we could form a vision statement of our concepts for requirements." Wally says, "Or maybe we can bound our strawman by the mission-critical functions of our quality vector!" As they walk away, Dilbert says to Wally, "You're shameless."

Have the bad experiences of your friends and family's home improvement projects put you off from doing them yourself? A lot of people end up having a horror story to tell about their improvements, but you can trace that back to a common lack of knowledge about improvements in general. Make sure that you're not the next person on the block with a sad, scary story to tell. Check out this article and learn about home improvements.
Often, rooms that are small in size can have a gloomy and closed-in feel, but they do not have to feel that way. Look for ways to make the room appear lighter and more airy. Clean your windows and make them sparkle. Open the blinds as well. If you make the most of natural lighting, any room will seem bigger. Use pale colors on your walls and avoid clutter. With a few key changes, you will find that even the smallest room can feel larger.
Sponges are great for installing drywall. Don't sand your drywall seams, sponge them. It may take a bit of practice, but sponging drywall seams can be as effective as sanding them down. Sponging can be better because it doesn't make the area as dusty while you do it.
It is important that you focus your improvement work on the visible portions of your home. Home buyers judge housing with their eyes. Old peeling paint and damaged floors can result in a lost sale. Although major improvements aren't usually seen, lesser, more obvious ones are, so take care of them before selling your home.
Painting is one of the simplest and most affordable home improvements you can do, yet it is also one of the most effective. It makes for an amazing visual change. Applying a fresh coat of paint is a fantastic way to increase your home's attractiveness and entice possible buyers.
To prevent heated or cooled air from leaking under and around your doors, install sealant strips and draft excluders. Draft excluders slide beneath the door to prevent hot air inside from leaking out during the winter, as well as keeping warm air in the summer. Sealant strips can be used for this as well. Sealant strips can be purchased at most hardware stores.
Keep children safe and improve your home by putting pads on sharp furniture. Either a corner protector or foam tape from your local hardware store will help curb the effects of any sharp edges. One of the things that you need to do when taking on a home improvement project is to fasten down loose wiring when working, to make sure your children are safe from a potential strangling hazard.
The importance of background research and advanced planning to home improvement projects simply cannot be overstated. Many disasters can be headed off with minimal effort in the early stages of a home improvement project. This article shared some great tips that will help you start on the projects that you have been wanting to do.

Is hormone replacement therapy covered by insurance?
Hormone replacement therapy is generally covered by your medical insurance.
If you have medical insurance, make sure to check with your health insurance provider to see what may or may not be covered. It depends on what type of coverage you have - some plans may cover HRT, others may not.
If you don't have health insurance, the cost can vary from $10 to $85 a month, on top of the initial medical examination which can add another $75-$200.
Before starting HRT, a blood test is usually required to check your hormone levels, which can cost about $1000 without insurance.

Vår sommarstuga ligger i Bäckegren ca 2 kilometer från Segersjön och i Sundsvalls kommun. Här nedan följer en engelsk sammanfattning om Bäckegrens by som Ylva skrivit i samband med en universitetspedagogisk kurs.
Bäckegren sommaren 2015
Oxsta 4:10 in the village of Bäckegren
Our summerhouse (Oxsta 4:10) is situated in the village of Bäckegren, 210 metres above the Baltic sea and 20 kilometres from the central parts of Sundsvall [1]. It belongs to the outfield of Selånger parish in the county of Västernorrland and the estate has a direct border to outfield of the village of Bäckegren (Sättna parish) and the villages of Huljen, Kvarsätt and Oxta (Selånger parish) [1]. The present main building at Oxta 4:10 was established during the year 1904-1905 and is a 75 m2 one and a half floor building build in timber from the nearby pine forest [1,2]. The real estate includes 6 Ha grassland, 20 Ha forest and some Ha waste land and contains a cottage, a stable and some additional out-buildings [1]. Until the 1940s the village of Bäckegren contained five farms and two mountain grazing farms, but since 1947 only three of these remains [1-3]. The reason to the depopulation is that the law that obeyed the farmer to wield their farming land was abrogated in 1942-1943 [2, 4]. Since a majority of the farmers was tenants, this change made it possible for the landowner Skönviksbolaget (today known as Svenska Cellulosa Aktiebolaget, SCA), to fire their landholders in the village of Bäckegren and plant forest on their fields [2, 4]. This company had in 1924 purchased the majority of the land (i.e. Bäckegren 1:5) at the legal redistribution of the Bäckegren village in Sättna [5] and in 1955 also the estates Bäckegren 1:12 and 1:13 was purchased [2, 6]. Thus, the only house that remains today is situated on Oxsta 4:10, Kvarsätt 1:14 and Bäckegren 1:10.

The film was released on July 6th.
A WIFE OF THE HILLS: A 35mm print film from the EYE Film Institute, the film's titles were all in dutch, but the audience could still make out what the film was about.

He is saved at the last minute but his faithful wife, played once again by actress Vedah Bertram. Also starring Arthur Mackley and Brinsley Shaw. Released to theaters on July 20th.
AN INDIAN SUNBEAM: A 35mm print from the Library of Congress, it starred Anderson, True Boardman, Edna Sharpe, Fred Church, Brinsley Shaw, Frank Pementel, Victor Potel, and Harry Todd. The film was released on September 28th.

International ASN must be submitted within 2 business days after Cargo delivery to Forwarders/Carriers at origin ports. All vendors are required to complete EDI testing and certification of five (5) transactions. For PO's that span multiple trailers, the vendor is to send one (1) 856 (Advance Ship Notice) per trailer.

Plans to invest over £700,000 in repairs and maintenance work at Sandal Castle are to be discussed by senior Wakefield councillors.
Members of the Council's Cabinet, meeting on November 21, will discuss a financial package to protect the monument, make improvements to bridges and walkways, and install new signage at the historic site.
Councillors are being recommended to approve the measures totaling £734,000 for the popular Castle and the surrounding site, which attracts over 200,000 visitors a year.
The investment would significantly reduce future cost of maintenance at the site, by replacing the existing wooden decking and structures with more long lasting structures.
Currently, access is restricted to the public after bridges and steps to the Keep were closed following safety checks last year.
Cllr Jacquie Speight, Cabinet Member for Culture, Leisure and Sport at Wakefield Council, said: "Sandal Castle is a very important part of our local heritage which is enjoyed by many thousands of visitors each year. We will be discussing the proposed financial package for this historic site and making a decision on the next step forward."
Councillors are being recommended to approve the investment.
The work would include structural repairs around the monument and see specialist teams removing vegetation and saplings that have grown around it.

Bad things usually occur whenever you aren't expecting it. You should never risk allowing your home and loved ones to be in danger because of your safety negligence. This article has advice to help protect your home.
It is important for your home to always look lived in. You can purchase timers that can control your household electronics such as lights, TVs and radios. This way, it will appear that you are at home. This helps you keep your house burglar-free.
It is crucial that you change the locks as soon as you move into a new residence. You don't know how many keys have been handed out previously. Hire a locksmith so that you can be sure you are the only person who can access your home. Give a key to someone you trust in case you get locked out.
Don't post information about an upcoming vacation anywhere on the web. It can be exciting to tell everyone about your vacation, but you could potentially be letting a burglar in on your whereabouts.
Make sure to clear your yard of brush and dead wood in the summertime. This can be a fire hazard, especially if you live in an area with high heat. Always clear the yard to ensure safety.
You should not be shy. Speak with your neighbors and friends in the area. Watch their houses, and ask if they'd do the same. Pay attention to gossip. You might find out valuable information related to security, like if there have been any strangers hanging around.
Do you live out in the country? If so, you might not be as worried about burglars breaking in as those people in the city are. Some people think that country folk are mainly targeted since they don't have nearby neighbors. Some people think burglaries are less prevalent in rural parts.
Purchase an alarm system that has a few "bells and whistles;" you don't just need protection for your doors. Your windows are easy entry points for crooks too. Be sure your alarm is secured to them all and that monitoring is in place for every point of entry. This is just one more thing you can do to protect your home.
Be certain the wires to your home security system are neither visible nor accessible. One of the ways an intruder can get around a security system is by disconnecting or cutting the wires. To provide maximum security, wiring should be laid underground or installed safely within the walls of your house. This will make you much safer.
Make sure you have several flashlights that are charged and ready to go in the event of a power outage. This is important for you to be able to see should your power go out or you suffer an emergency. Your kids should know how to work the flashlights so that everyone can help.
Unfortunately, burglars can be extremely unpredictable. As a result, knowing when your home may be targeted can be difficult. You should take action to secure your family and your belongings. Keep these tips in mind when researching more about protecting your home from crime.

Utaban (2004.07.29) Morning Musume – Joshi Kashimashi Monogatari (Tsuji & Kago Graduation)
Dear Readers,
Well this was actually a great pick from Chibusasa. Given that we're celebrating our 7th Anniversary, why not also pick a fitting Utaban episode of W's graduation.
Description by Chibusasa:
Yet another oldie but goodie.
This Utaban is (as given in the description) the final appearance of Tsuji and Kago as Morning Musume before they graduated.
Of course Utaban is not Utaban without their crazy logic to send the girls off with a bang and in this situation they did it with a quiz. Not any typical quiz, but a quiz that highlighted the history of Japan through the 17 years of Tsuji/Kago's existence.
They call the quiz 'super easy' and that it is all about common sense however it is just another attempt at making the 'Two Top' look like the idiots they tend to be.
All of it is done in good fun and this episode is a nice reminder of how far Morning Musume has evolved through the past 15 years. It is also a nice flashback of how MoMusu's current leader Sayumin looked back when she first joined. Ah to be young again~

Hey, do you happen to know, where I can watch any missing, non subbed utaban, morning musume etc. episodes? Or have you pretty much subbed all of their utaban visits?
Oh no, there's a ton of unsubbed episodes still.
Although as of now I have no idea where one would find them as sadly the H!P community has died down in regard to the older stuff.

Plantar Fasciitis
Plantar fasciitis is an inflammation of the plantar fascia, which is the band of tissue that runs across the bottom of the foot and supports the natural arch of your bones. This inflammation is the most common cause of heel pain among Americans and frequently occurs when the foot becomes overstressed with repetitive activity.
Risk factors that may contribute to the incidence of plantar fasciitis include obesity, new or increased activity, repetitive strain on your feet, high arches, or lack of flexibility in the foot and leg muscles. If you seem to fit in with some of these risk factors or just have heel pain that won't go away, you may be affected by plantar fasciitis, and your best course of action is to see a professional and begin treatment as soon as possible.
The doctors and orthopaedic professionals at Excelsior Orthopaedics Express can offer advanced knowledge and treatment of plantar fasciitis. Don't live with the pain for one day longer than you have to. Call today, and make an appointment to come see us.
For more information about plantar fasciitis, this guide from the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons is an excellent resource.

If memory serves: Welcome to Friday, friends, and the brink of a well-earned holiday weekend, as we wrap up the week in socioeconomic innovation and unofficially open summer.
It's May 24 out there, and Monday, of course, is Memorial Day, with sales aplenty and a bright forecast. Also worth remembering: For some, it's always Memorial Day.
On that note: It's Website Maintenance Monday for Innovate LI; back at you with fresh content Tuesday and our regularly scheduled Wednesday newsletter.
Moveable feasts: Like Monday's Memorial Day observance – in the States, always the last Monday in May – today marks a number of "floating" holidays around the globe.
May 24 is Victoria Day in Canada (celebrated on the Monday on or before the date), the earliest date on which El Colacho can fall in Northern Spain's Castrillo de Murcia and Bermuda Day (celebrated in the British territory on the nearest weekday if May 24 falls on a weekend).
"What hath God wrought": Quoting the King James Bible (Numbers, Chapter 23, Verse 23), Samuel Morse reached out from the chambers of the U.S. Supreme Court in Washington and touched his partner, Alfred Vail, at a Baltimore train station on this date in 1844, formally opening American's first telegraph line.

About the Brand
About the Brand: Crystal Clear
Crystal Clear was launched in 1995. They have been committed to trying to solve skincare issues for their customer.
Sharon Hilditch: Co-founder and CEO of Crystal Clear International:
"Even after owning and running a number of salons for a couple of years, I was determined to learn more about skincare. I spent the next five years working with some of the most renowned skincare experts in the world, including six months working with American dermatologists in the US, studying the effects of skin peeling on different skin types.
This experience encouraged me to take the next and most important step in my career; launching Crystal Clear. Developing and launching the products and brand has taken all of my clinical skincare expertise and a lot of determination, but I am delighted with the results. In fact, I'm certain that our products will brighten up your life just as much as they've brightened mine."

Hardware vendors are lining up small desktops and back-end servers to coincide with the release of Microsoft's Windows for terminal computers, even as customer interest in Network Computers based around Java appears to be fading.
Network Computing Devices, Wyse, and Boundless all
NCD's ThinStar Windows-based Terminal
The "thin client" arena is likely to capture the computing world's attention during the next few months. Though often regarded as a segment technology, the thin-client architecture has begun to attract corporate customers, hardware vendors, and resellers. Growing interest has spilled over into the debate on which thin systems--Java-based network computers or Windows-based Terminals running Hydra and an embedded version of Windows CE--will emerge as the market leader.
Windows Terminal is a technology for low-end computing devices that are used for very basic tasks, such as simple data entry. The end-user or "client" device has relatively little processing power and instead relies on a powerful server to do the data crunching.
Earlier this week, Intel announced an investment in NCD and said that the two companies would work to create terminals based around Intel microprocessors. The initial Intel terminals, likely to be the first Intel-based machines running the Windows CE operating system, will come out in the third quarter, according to NCD, and use 133-MHz Pentium chips.
Intel-compatible terminals are currently available from other vendors.
Sun, meanwhile, will make its JavaStation available to the general public later this month amid growing customer indifference. Thin-client vendors, analysts, and even Sun resellers say that delays combined with the lack of corporate-level Java applications are causing interest in these boxes to wane.
"The reality is that people are not deploying Java applications today, so we haven't seen the volume," said Lorraine Hariton, senior vice president of marketing and business development for NCD, which manufactures NCs for IBM as well as terminals under its own name.
Even Sun appears to be less than excited. "Their silence [on JavaStations] is deafening," said a Sun reseller.
While the NC architecture is more developed than the WBT platform, momentum appears to be shifting toward the Windows terminals, which operate using the WinFrame system from Citrix
"If either of these are going to make it, WBTs have more potential," said Eileen O'Brien, terminal analyst for International Data Corporation. "I think 1999 will be the breakthrough year."
Beyond operating systems, NCs and Windows Terminals differ in how they work. NCs allow for local processing of applications. Windows Terminals are completely server-centric. The internal processor exists only to relay information to the server, where all computing takes place. NCs cost around $750. WBTs cost slightly less, but will be under $500 in the relatively near future, said Bob Gilbertson, chief executive officer at NCD.
The terminals announced today will be previewed over the next few months and become generally available in the second quarter, when Hydra is released.
Wyse released four versions of its Winterm 2000 terminal today. The machines all use Intel-compatible processors and are differentiated by their design. At the low end of the line sits the Winterm 2310 SE, which comes with no terminal and sells for around $600, said Jeff McNaught, general manager at Wyse. Other models come with built-in monitors or LCD screens and can cost up to $2,500.
Boundless said that its Viewpoint TC 300 is in beta and will be released when Microsoft's Hydra server software comes out. The machine will use an AMD 5X86 processor running at 133 MHz and cost around $749.
For its part, NCD announced the ThinStar, a RISC processor-based terminal that will be released in the second quarter.
Along with the client announcements, Axil and Data General said that they would support the technology on their servers.
While larger vendors have yet to weigh in, executives from Boundless as well as Wyse said that companies such as Compaq and Hewlett-Packard are working behind the scenes to support the terminal market.

1. Build quality & Comfort
JH Audio most likely has the most experience with building custom IEMs in the world. As a result their units are absolutely flawless and they set the bar (high) for the other competing companies to reach. All of JH's CIEMs are handcrafted in the USA.
All of the universal and custom monitors are built in Orlando, Florida. Each set is assembled by hand using JH Audio's proprietary drivers, crossover components, as well as custom finishes including Carbon Fiber to create the most beautiful looking and sounding earpieces. JH Audio is proud to manufacture their in-ears by using old school craftsmanship, while using the most cutting edge Technology.
We'll get into the design of my set in a bit but this without doubt is the cleanest, best built unit in my collection. Everything just is perfect and JH did a more than excellent job with my full carbon set. The face plate closing, canals (length + comfort), artwork, connectors, bores, inside labeling, etc. It's pure perfection: 11/10.
Comfort wise my set probably is the tightest set in my collection. It's the hardest to get into my ears, but the fit, isolation and comfort are – again – perfect. In fact, after listening to the JH13V2 PRO, all my other monitors feel a bit loose and I sometimes wish they were more like this JH. Breaking the seal is impossible, making them fall out of your ear? Never going to happen. The JH13V2 PRO is stage and wild artist proof, it's not going to fail on you doing a show. And that means it certainly will never fail for "normal" audiophiles such as we are.
2. Personalization
JH Audio has one of the best creator tools on the market and I find myself using it most of the time to show other brands the artwork I would like on the new set of monitors they'll be building for me.
The design process has been a real experience and I'm extremely happy with the result. I sent in some of my ideas and a screenshot of my idea to JH creative people and they as a team exchanged ideas, improved the design and came with their own suggestions. Their Art Director in charge also followed the design procedure for this set and they all were a pleasure to work with. He stated: "We're not satisfied unless we create a challenge for ourselves so that's nothing at all to worry about, we take as much pride in our appearance as we do in our sound".
JH's creative team has all the needed skills to build you a unique set of CIEMs taking into account all of your requirements. If you want your set to be build exactly the way you created it in the designer, JH will of course do that but I really recommend implicating the design team as they come up with the most gorgeous designs. Our Lola and Layla samples also prove that JH absolutely has the design part nailed down.
For this design I had only two requests: A full carbon fiber shell and a Valentino Rossi racing theme. I sent in some VR46 logo's and colours and then JH took it from there. To be honest, it turned out completely different from how I imaged it to be, but I absolutely love what they did with the 46. Here's my original design:
It was a very basic design and JH probably felt the same way and so they came up with a different design: full carbon shell, multi-color artwork, a double halo band around the shell in VR's colors and a glossy finish. The halo bands are thinner bands (one yellow brushed titanium and one red brushed titanium) that run side by side around the shell to really give them the racing aesthetic.
It's absolutely stunning to me as a Valentino Rossi fan, even though the colors are more from his earlier days.
3. Cable
JH Audio's cable system is special and unique. Linus has already covered it in detail in his Lola and Layla reviews as well.
Almost all Jerry Harvey IEMs come with a four-pin detachable cable. The connectors on each side can be screwed on or off, which for me personally feels more secure than any other way. Each side can only be connected in a specific way, so you will not end up with wrong connected phases. This connection made it impossible for me to try out different cables though, because all my aftermarket cables and (C)IEMS have a 2-pin or MMCX style finish, except for the UM Mason V3.
The supplied eight-wire cable is built by Moon Audio cable and it's of very high quality already, so there's no pain in not cable-rolling for this review.
As said, these cables feature the proprietary bass module which allows you to set the bass from neutral (0dB) to bassy (+12dB). In order to do so you need a mini screw driver which comes with your monitors. It's a really nice system but I have to say I have never changed the bass level ever since I found my sweet spot.
Your JH Audio monitor will come with the stock 3.5mm single ended cable but JH actually also offers you an optional balanced 2.5mm cable which I definitely recommend getting if you like the balanced sound characteristics your source offers. This cable is also made by Moon Audio and it has the 4-pin cable connection with twist lock collar and a Gold-Plated 2.5mm Input Connector. The balanced cable will set you back $150USD. But to me that's worth it, and that's till cheaper than many aftermarket boutique IEM cables. You can find the balanced cables dedicated page here: https://jhaudio.com//p/4-pin-balanced-cable . A replacement 3.5mm cable will cost you $100 USD from Moon Audio or directly from JH Audio.
4. Price & Accessories
The JH13V2 PRO is now starting at only $1299 without any special options, last year that was $1175 without options when I ordered it, so there was a 10% price increase since then. My unit back then set you back $1855USD with all the options and shipping included ($2050USD with the optional balanced cable). For a monitor of this level from Jerry Harvey that price is more than correct, especially if you see the prices of the 8-drivers of some of the competition. If you don't want any crazy options like me, you can already own this monitor for only $1299, a buy!
The JH package is basic but correct and more aimed to the pro market. The monitor comes in a nice box with the iconic personalized Jerry Harvey Signature IEM case, a wax removal tool, a Comply Wrap sample and the mini screw driver to set the bass.

Dua Lipa's current smash "New Rules" is a cautionary lesson for this generation's boy-crazy youth as well as one heck of a bop to boot. So it's no surprise to see Clean Bandit take the tune on when they stopped by BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge earlier this week.
Like any cover worth remembering, this take transforms the original into something uniquely fresh thanks to a late 90's twist. Incorporating the signature strings of SisQo's ultimate booty anthem "Thong Song," the violin-wielding ensemble manage to create not only a memorable compliment but a standalone mashup all its own. No easy feat when considering the contrast in sources.

Legal briefing template, If you're considering joining the online business bandwagon, then don't allow yourself to fall prey to the common mistakes that rookies make. Be sure that you plan your business plan early on in the match so you can avoid making errors that won't only cost you money, but time too. And though making company plans may look like a daunting task at first, there's almost always a trusted source of inspiration which it is possible to turn to.
If you're going to search for the ideal online business template online, you might discover you'll never run out of options since there's a wide variety of different templates which you can easily make use of today. Besides the fact that they are easily available, yet another fantastic thing about them is you could get nearly all of these for free. Even though there are individuals who sell theirs for a price, it's up to you to decide which one is going to be able to give you more benefits. Always remember to go through the pros and cons of all of the options before you decide on which option you should take.
Another fantastic thing about using online small business templates is that it takes away the guesswork from beginning your online endeavor. All you want to this is to follow what's written about the template and pretty soon you'll have the ability to find a very clear idea on how you can begin your own business. You will find that all the basic details you need in making your online enterprise is in one nifty package. Remember, the more insightful and detailed the company template is, the greater it will serve your company in the future. Just be certain that you opt for an internet small business template that is best suited to your own situation. In this manner, you're going to be able to adapt marketing strategies and business procedures that can work for your business perfectly.
The actual story behind using templates to start your business off right is that the price savings together with the massive time savings. Collectively they allow small start up firms to have exactly the very same chances as the big boys that have designers on staff. I can't think of a more accessible means to level the playing field so keep them in mind that the next time someone quotes you a ridiculous cost for layout services. This author has built his own company on the backs of template designers I have never met.
