Purchasing Homeowners Insurance About More Than Money
You will see more and more drivers on the road every year. This could lead to an increased likelihood of a collision. If you get in a car crash, the car insurance you own can make a big difference in how much you have to pay. But why is insurance required by law and just how much do you need? Required coverage varies based on the state/province but usually includes the following: Liability: This kind of insurance coverage will pay for the damage that you are responsible for. These damages may include personal injury, and property damage. Damages from bodily injury include medical fees, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Property damage includes damaged property and loss of property use. If you are in legal trouble, liability insurance will pay for your legal fees. State laws usually require minimum amounts of liability insurance, but higher amounts can be purchased and are usually recommended. Personal Injury Protection: Personal injury protection pays for hospital bills and other medical treatment for you and other people in your car, no matter who was responsible for the collision. It is commonly called no-fault coverage. The minimum amount of personal injury protection is typically set by local government. Medical Payments: This coverage is available in non-no-fault states; it pays despite who may have been at fault. All necessary medical or funeral expenses will be covered under this insurance coverage. Collision: Damages resulting from a collision will be covered under this kind of car insurance. Comprehensive: Applies if your car is stolen or damaged by something other than a wreck, including fire, wind, hail, flood or vandalism. Uninsured Motorist: If you are in an accident with a driver without insurance, this type of insurance coverage will protect you. Under-Insured Motorist: Just like uninsured coverage, this kind of insurance protects you against people driving without enough insurance coverage. Other kinds of car insurance, such as emergency road service, are also available. Insurance Clermont
What is Auto Insurance?
Each year, more automobiles and drivers hit the highways. With countless vehicles on the road, accidents will happen. Car insurance can be the difference between a minor inconvenience and a large hassle. So how do you know what insurance you need and the quantity you should buy? Insurance requirements will differ by state/province, but typically include the following: Liability: This type of insurance coverage will pay for the damage that you are responsible for. These damages may include bodily injury, and property damage. If you are sued, this type of insurance will pay for your court costs. Recommended, more comprehensive levels of liability insurance can be purchased that take care of more events than the lower, state-mandated insurance. Personal Injury Protection: This type of insurance pays for hospital bills and other medical treatment for you or other people in your car, regardless of who was at fault in the accident. It is occasionally referred to as no-fault coverage. Local law typically sets minimum amounts. Medical Payments: This coverage can be purchased in states that are not considered no-fault; it will pay regardless of who may be responsible. It pays for an insured person's necessary medical or funeral expenses resulting from an accident. Collision: Pays for damage to your car caused by a collision. Comprehensive: Protect your car from all non-collision damages when you buy this type of coverage. This may include protection from burglary, vandalism, and weather damage. Uninsured Motorist: Many drivers are breaking the law by driving without purchasing the proper amount of insurance. This type of coverage will cover you if one of these drivers hit you. Under-Insured Motorist: Pays for damages when a driver with insurance is in an accident caused by a driver who does not have the right amount of insurance to pay for the full cost of the damages. Other types of coverage, such as emergency road service, are also available. Auto Insurance Quotes Clermont

In a recent blog post by Carol Silwa, Dave Russell from Gartner gives us his perspective on the status of current techniques for reducing primary storage. I have huge respect for Dave, and I think he does some fine work. In fact, Storwize is even a client of Gartner. But I must say that in this case, some clarification is in order. Allow me to elaborate:
It appears to me that Dave is thinking about how compression has been used historically, which is from the client perspective. This is old school, and it has been done for years. It is true that LZ compression has been around for 30+ years, as Dave notes. It has recently been re-applied by Microsoft in Office 2007. All of those .docx, .xlsx, and .pptx files are compressed before they are sent using LZ. Bravo! But that does not help overall primary storage, just the Office 2007 application data. Here are Dave's quotes:
"Compression is really looking at a very specific amount of data. One everyday example might be a sound file. An MP3 is an example. Compression is just looking within that individual object, in this case, one single music file, and doesn't really persist any kind of data reduction across other types of files or data that it's going to process later on." "So, the opportunity on primary storage might be a little less, but it's still very significant, especially for so-called unstructured data or things like word processing documents, spreadsheets, PowerPoints, which tend to have not only a lot of commonality but a lot of situations where even one individual saves a file with very, very similar data multiple times."
So what is the issue? Primary storage gets all kinds of file types thrown at it, and it is rarely redundant in real time. That means that deduplication techniques may not provide anywhere near the big savings as they do in archiving and back up. The trick for primary storage is to reduce capacity on the fly, without any disruption to the application. It is important that there is no performance degradation, and when the application wants its data, it's readily available.
Now many have tried to use regular old LZ compression on primary storage in a common form such as WinZip but it is inadequate. Why? Because primary storage traffics active data, and active data gets modified a lot. When you modify a file that has been compressed with LZ, you need to decompress the entire file to modify it, which takes lots of processing and may impact performance. Then if the modification is too large, you need to store it somewhere else. This creates holes in your storage that is akin to 'swiss cheese.' Over time the holes grow, and all of the savings from compressing the data are lost. Heck, we have seen instances where the compressed data actually grows bigger than the original data itself! It's called fragmentation.
I'm sure Dave knows that traditional LZ is not the right solution for primary data. But Storwize does! Why? Because all of our IP is devoted to making LZ real time and random access. 'Real time' makes compressed data transparent to the application, with no performance degradation. Dave recognizes the real time aspect of this when he says: "…this tends to take a certain amount of processing power, particularly CPU, we're going to see more advancement in chip technology and that is going to be much more cost-affordable. The speed of being able to process data and potentially to do that more in an inline process rather than land all this on disk first is very likely to come about in numerous products." But simply throwing CPU at this suggests he is thinking about speeding up post processing techniques. Throwing more horsepower at this problem is not the solution, you need to approach the act of compression from a different angle. Storwize has solved the 'real time' compression riddle asking a different question. Instead of starting with a fixed input and creating a variable size output, Storwize actually takes in variable input from the application and writes a file with fixed output such that the Storwize appliance knows exactly where the compressed 'chunks' of data live inside the compressed file. By knowing this, there is no need to decompress a file in order to edit the file, thereby reducing the I/O required to write data.
Plus, there is an added bonus. Because of the way we store the compressed file we take deduplication to a whole other level. When deduplication vendors are telling end users to decompress their files before they deduplicate, because compressed files ruin deduplication ratios, Storwize doesn't ruin deduplication, we actually make deduplication more efficient. Dave also says that new innovations are coming that combine deduplicaton and compression, i.e. "Today one vendor may only offer deduplication; in the near future, they may offer compression on top of that; and where potentially today they only offer compression, they may expand into dedupe as well." I don't want to tell Dave anything but most deduplication vendors have compression – I know Avamar and Data Domain do.
Storwize compress data in real time and using random access techniques and you can still use your trusted deduplication backup solution. Quite simply we have tomorrow's Storwize compress data in real time and using random access techniques and you can still use your trusted deduplication backup solution. Quite simply we have tomorrow's technology, available today.

Nobody wishes a credit score which is less than perfect. In short, developing Uber-like apps are considered as the perfect business model because these apps can give much value to their customers, drivers, and the companies that operate them. For example, getNEXT offers a cybersecurity product Cloud Secure that can protect your business from threats of Malware. There have been plenty of reports of users installing apps on their phones which can then do anything from track everything you type to taking control of your camera without your knowledge. Thus, if you wish to encrypt your data with VeraCrypt, then first you need to decrypt your data and then you have to re-encrypt it using VeraCrypt.

They are not only looking to develop new recreation options but also to hire professionals who can help take their businesses to the next level.
Managing virtual security is a great challenge for modern users, but using a smart password protection tool can help you to keep Internet threats at bay. Code Reuse – One of the major benefits of using multi-platform app development is code reusability. Do you have any other suggestions for making a high-quality mobile app? Android is an open source mobile platform launched by Google in 2008 and ever-since it became the favourite for people and developers around the world. As discussed in this article, mobile device forensics, and in particular the Android OS, is different from the traditional digital forensic processes used for laptop and desktop computers. how to hack text messages is considered to be low-level data acquisition since there is no conversion or interpretation and is similar to a bit-copy that is done when acquiring evidence from a desktop or laptop computer hard drive. It is compatible with two types of devices that is android based and specific model of barcode scanning mobile computer.
If you are an Android Developer (Fresher/Experienced), Android app development services and tools are an important part of your work and you need to always stay updated on what new tools and services are releasing for you. Overall, it is an invaluable app if we haven't got enough with Google Play, since you'll discover a variety of Android software that's different to a lot of applications. Apart from Xamarin, there are hundreds of tools and websites online that provide a variety of automated tests and make your life easier. If you are concerned there is a problem with your refrigerator get in touch with the Appliance Doctor in you are based in NYC. These can be picked up cheaply in NYC.

Enterprise Application Development: Should You Choose Java or Go With PHP? SoftwareThis blog post showcases the difference between PHP and Java and explains which would be a better option for what type of enterprise application development. In 20 sessions you will see the difference. Apart from this, for creating iOS apps your developers will require expertise in the Objective-C language which is quite complicated, programming languages. If you love computers, mobiles, smart watches, various gadgets and above all, the internet, let me inform you that they all run on programming languages. Thus, it is better to use alternative options to ensure the security of your hard drive's data. Such cyber attacks create a significant data breach in the health care field, which may require millions of dollars to recover the data stolen and repairing the damage due to such attacks. The medical organizations have the database of PHI (Protected Health Information) and other health insurance related data of the patients. It underlies an UI layer for web service calls, database integration, input validation, and backend integration.
The service of renting of jumpers has also been started at jumpers' rentals in Sunnyvale. The service will be obtainable through the Uber app from the cities of Split and Dubrovnik in the southern Adriatic and from the island of Hvar. This app is known as the best Cydia game hack. How would you feel if your employer asked you to install a GPS tracking app on your personal smartphone or in your company vehicle? Tell them you would rather have them calling than driving, so they won't feel bad about doing it. If you feel that your employees are determined to steal corporate/company You can start by ensuring that all possible mediums for copying data are removed from your PC. You don't need to go out and fit a nuclear bunker to your home, but having a torch or candles as well as a supply of water and food can be very useful.

Sigiriya Rock is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Sri Lanka. The true wonders of the Rock, however, is lost if you don't know its history. Here's a short, yet essential, guide.
The Story of Sigiriya is reminiscent of the numerous struggles for power that occurred among countless royal families in the ancient world. In this particular story, the bastard son of the reigning king, Kashyapa, seized power by organizing a coop and overthrowing his father. Kashyapa murdered his father, by walling him up alive, and took the throne from his half-brother Moggallana, the rightful heir. Moggallana escaped to South India for his safety and swore to return to avenge his father and take back his kingdom. Fearing his brother's return, Kashyapa moved the capital of the kingdom and his residence from Anuradhapura to the more secure Sigiriya Rock and built a great fortress atop the rock's summit. Moggallana gathered together a massive army in South India and returned to claim his rightful place on the throne in 495 CE. Kashyapa's armies abandoned him during the war and, too proud to surrender, Kashyapa committed suicide by falling on his own sword.
The famous frescoes of Sigiriya that depict ladies in various poses can be seen about halfway up the rock on its western side. The paintings, though classified as in the Anuradhapura period, are unique in their line and style of application and thus differed from the paintings that were prevalent at the time. It is believed that during the time of Kashyapa, the frescoes were drawn over an area 140 metres long and 40 metres high, and ancient graffiti suggests that over 500 ladies were painted here. Other similar paintings also existed in other parts of the rock face but have since been lost forever.
The Mirror wall is another of Sigiriya's many fascinating features. The wall is made of brick masonry and covered in highly polished white plaster. During King Kashyapa's time, the wall is said to have been so polished that the king could see himself in it. Today, the wall has lost its reflecting qualities and is instead covered in graffiti, some dating as far back as the 8th century CE. Writing on the wall is no longer allowed in an effort to protect the ancient scribblings, some of which include poems about love!
Sigiriya's gardens are among the oldest landscaped gardens in the world. There are three distinct garden types found on the complex: Water gardens, terraced gardens and boulder gardens. The water gardens typically feature pools and moats surrounding or built alongside plots of land. They are all built symmetrically and are connected with a large artificial lake on the south of the rock and the outer moat found on the west. The pools, fascinatingly, are all linked via underground water conduits that are fed by the lake and connected to the moats; these conduits are still functional today. The boulder gardens are made of several large boulders linked together via winding pathways. Most of these boulders actually used to have buildings or pavilions upon them that were used to attack enemies from. The terraced gardens consist of a series of terraces that rise up to Sigiriya's staircases from the pathways of the boulder gardens.
While most of the Citadel's buildings and palaces have been lost to time, Sigiriya still holds onto much of its grandeur, which is apparent the moment you set eyes upon the isolated rock. Visitors can climb to the very top, up ancient staircases and past the famous lion's paws, to see the remains Kashyapa's grand fortress. There are many Sigiriya hotels and resorts in close proximity to the Rock, like Aliya Resort & Spa, where you can stay at. Sigiriya is best climbed during morning hours when the crowds are less and the weather is more pleasant!

I was interviewed on BNN TV (Business News Network – Canada) on February 26, 2018 at 8:40 a.m. ET on Warren Buffett's Letter To Shareholders.
Highlights of my interview:
(1) Warren Buffett has not made a major purchase recently because stocks are near all-time highs and he would have to pay a 25% premium over current market prices to acquire a company. He will pay only a "sensible purchase price". Berkshire has $116 billion in cash and Buffett will participate in only friendly deals. However, Berkshire has been a net buyer of common stocks over the past year.
(2) At current interest rates, Warren Buffett thinks stocks are more attractive than bonds. Buffett is optimistic and expects stocks to rally over the next 1 – 2 years. But if the market should decline, then he is prepared to pounce and acquire a whole company or more.
(3) Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger are in charge of allocating capital and they (primarily Buffett) will decide on major purchases. Buffett's portfolio managers, Todd Combs and Ted Weschler, manage part of Berkshire's common stock portfolio.
(4) In the near future, Berkshire could once again go partners with 3G Capital of Brazil in acquiring another food company such as their joint effort with H.J.Heinz (2013) and then Kraft (2015) (now Kraft Heinz). Berkshire has been the financing partner and 3G Capital the operating partner. Since Berkshire's last large acquisition was Precision Castparts (aircraft parts manufacturer) which closed in January 2016, Buffett might acquire another manufacturing company, or an electric utility, or another business in the same industries as its current 60 businesses are in. He will look for a well run business, with good growth prospects, at a sensible purchase price.

Eva and Kat enjoy a carefree existence on their houseboat on a London canal. Until Eva's dream of becoming a mother is reignited by the death of their pet. Kat just wants to get a new cat. But when Kat's best friend, Roger, visits from Barcelona, they decide in a moment of drunkenness that he can be Eva's sperm donor. But what are the consequences for the lesbian couple, the biological father, the child and their relationships with one another?
Although these thirty-somethings aren't following a conventional path, this bittersweet drama full of comic notes depicts modern characters without stereotyping them. It throws up questions faced by everyone in their thirties. What kind of parent would I be? What does it mean to start a family? The fairytale London canal is also a character in itself. As the seasons change, the flowing water changes too – just like relationships and life itself.

Sunless Sea Creator Alexis Kennedy Talks Working on the Next Dragon Age
BioWare and Dragon Age writer Alexis Kennedy talks his role in the series, quests, and what he's working on.
The idea that BioWare is cooking up another Dragon Age game should come as little surprise , after all the series' latest installment, Dragon Age Inquisition, was a big Game of the Year winner in 2014 and further pushed the series towards a bigger audience.
That being said, a new Dragon Age exists, but it doesn't have a name or official confirmation. However, last September it was revealed that Fallen London and Sunless Sea creator Alexis Kennedy had signed on with BioWare to work on an undisclosed project. His role would see him join Mike Laidlaw, the creative director of the series and lead writer Patrick Weekes. To anyone who knows anything about BioWare, it was quite obvious what project he was joining, but alas, it still wasn't anything more than informed speculation.
Then the first day Kennedy started, executive producer of the series Mark Darrah tweeted out to Kennedy saying "welcome to the Dragon Age franchise," confirming what Kennedy was working on. Fast-forward to today to an interview between Eurogamer and Kennedy, and Kennedy has confirmed that he is indeed working on a new Dragon Age game.
More specifically, while talking about the change from Stellaris DLC and his own work on Cultist Simulator to AAA development, Kennedy had the following to say:
"There are huge differences between all of that and what I'm working on at BioWare [pause] which I can now legitimately say is in the Dragon Age franchise although it has been known for a while. Notionally it was a secret but, because of who I was working with, everyone who cared knew. And then the day I started, Mark Darrah [executive producer of the Dragon Age franchise] tweeted saying 'welcome to the Dragon Age franchise', so I thought, well, I guess that's official now then."
Mild Spoilers for Dragon Age: Inquisition: If you played and beat Dragon Age: Inquisition you may have picked up on hints that the next game is heading to the Tevinter Imperium. If you played the game's final and excellent DLC Trespasser, which acts like a bridge between Inquisition and future installments, you would have saw that in the final moments of the DLC a dagger is literally placed into a map of the Tevinter Imperium, one of the most mentioned and renowned places in the series that has never been visited.
Kennedy adds the following about the work he is specifically doing:
"What I can say is I have been given considerable autonomy to work on a storyline bit of lore which is well-segregated from other parts of the game, which makes a lot of sense with me being remote. And yes, if you've seen a lot of my work before you will probably not be surprised by the choice of subject matter. It's familiar stuff."
"I don't want to exaggerate the degree of the chunk [I'm writing]. It's more analogous to Patrick Weekes writing [Mass Effect character] Mordin than me being told to go off and write a whole different country… It's nothing that grandiose, but it is distinct. It's a bit of lore which has not been addressed much to date in Dragon Age."
Going off Kennedy's work and what he said above it's possible his role has something to do — as Eurogamer also points out — with the Qunari race, a race relatively unknown and separated from the rest of Thedas, aka fitting the bill of what Kennedy describes. Further, Trespasser implies heavily that the Qunari will play a substantial role going forward, which comes as no surprise as they are constantly at arms with Tevinter.
Later in the interview, Kennedy talks how the quests he creates are planned out over a four-day cycle. He specifically says:
"I have one wall of my flat covered with whiteboard vinyl. One day will be breaking the story on the whiteboard wall for a proper scrawly arrows serial killer effect. [After that, it's] one day creating a skeleton of the quest with placeholder text in the editor; one day fleshing out dialogue; one day for contingency and admin."
Kennedy has said he is nearing the halfway point of his writing time on the game, though the project will continue in production long after he departs.
Speaking on the Dragon Age team within BioWare, Kennedy notes: "It started out small… [pause] I have to be careful what I say. Obviously, BioWare has completed one public project recently so that has freed up some resource. The team is growing."

For documentation purposes i started to create a timeline - the steps we used to develop the global OSCEdays 2015 (first edition). Feel free to add, what is missing. To much detail could be counterproductive though i think.
Part I of the Documentation of the global OSCEdays 2015. See here for Part II with Impressions & Videos.
##DOCUMENTATION: How to develop OSCEdays15 - a Timeline with Tasks
###Idea (Nov 7. 2014)
The idea came up in a call with @Lars2i @Alice_Audrey @unteem & @MaxFabian. A few days later @sharmarval @TechnicalNature & @cameralibre jumped on board
###Website Building (Nov 2014 - Jan 2015)
Building the website with a design, a description of the idea, a participation guide, first ideas for a READ ME and so on. HTML Download of the OSCEdays15 landing page, mission statement & participation guide landing page (June 15 version):
oscedays.org landing page(June2015).zip (4.3 MB)
Participation Guide HTML Document.zip (475.8 KB)
OSCEdays Mission Statement HTML (June2015).zip (557.8 KB)
OSCEdays15 Design Files Cloud Folder
###Advertising & Community Building (Feb 2015 - May 2015)
Spreading the word! Trying to reach across the globe. Activating our networks and networks of networks to find global partners (local organizers). Community Calls with people that were interested to become local organizers. Setting up the infrastructure for them. (Community Building Team).
Standard "Welcome to the OSCEdays"-Mail send out to new local organizers after we met them in a video call and agreed to collaborate.
(Before the OSCEdays I had 8 Skype contacts. Now I have 93! So many great calls with great people from all over the world.)
###Development of the Forum (Feb 2015 - Apr 2015)
We developed the forum, set up the tech, created a structure for it and wrote some important topics like "How to Post a Challenge". Of course the development of the forum went on after that and is still ongoing - but in April we published it and announced it to the community.
COMMUNITY MAIL "The Forum is Up" from April 13, 2015
###Building Content & Understanding (April & May 2015)
The second half of April and the whole May was for getting everything together. The forum was up and we started using it so most stuff can be found here. Some of the stuff we did: Further building of the platform, pushing and building the community, constantly updating the webpage, getting in touch with speakers for our five minute video messages, explaining Open Source and much more … ah, and the people who worked hard on the OSCEdays met for the first time in real live
Blogpost: OSCEdays First Meeting in London
[COMMUNITY MAIL May 14, 2015] Let's start developing the OSCEdays
###Setting up Global Reporting (May & June 2015)
Global reporting was one of the key things to connect the community and build a lasting and shared archive of faces and impressions. I was a rather complex setup starting in May and going on till June.
Global Reporting READ ME & COMMUNITY MAILS
Link to some of the Videos in OSCEdays EVENT DOCU Part II - Impressions & Videos | OSCEdays YouTube Channel

###Documentation & OSCEdays Future (June … 2015)
After the event time is to spent for documentation. This topic here and Part II with general Imrpessions, Videos and More are the key parts (so far) of the documentation of the global event. But more important then to look back is to look in to the future. What is the future of the OSCEdays Community? A new category to discuss this in the following months is opened in the forum.
Forum Category: OSCEdays Future

Difference Between Sociology and Anthropology
Anthropology, sociology and psychology are three areas of social sciences which are used to study different aspects of humanity. While the subject of psychology is clearly defined, there is the partially overlap between anthropology and sociology, so much so that sometimes it is unclear to understand both of them. Sociology and anthropology are used to study the human conduct, culture and reciprocal actions with the company or surroundings. Anthropologists focus on the tribes and cultures of the colonized people, the work of sociologists with Western societies is the study of urbanization. There are many similarities and differences between these two subjects in the realms of social sciences and that the differences will be harped on in this article.
Anthropology and the sociology try to answer questions relating to man and his conduct in society. While anthropology studies the whole man and its development whereas society is at the focus in the study of sociology. There are broad classifications topics like archeology, physical anthropology, linguistics and cultural anthropology. It is clear that physical anthropology is concerned with the study of man's physical characteristics as height, skin color and body shape and head and there growth in recent times. Archaeology is the part of anthropology which focuses on artifacts unearthed from beneath the surface of the earth that reveal about the character of the man of that time and his relation with the society. This is used in constructing of inferences and drawing inferences from the analysis of artifacts and instruments. It's cultural anthropology, which is closest to sociology and even here there are differences in approach and methodology that justifies the separation of these two sciences.
Anthropology is concerned with the study of less advanced cultures like the tribes in Africa and Asia, while sociology is concerned with understanding the social structure in our own societies. Sociology and anthropology has there own society.
If you go to the basic principles, we find that sociology is the scientific study of societies and social relations. The main purpose of sociology is to understand human behavior. How and why humans behave in a particular way in a society is the central issue in any sociological discussion. The changes that occur in the conduct of any individual because of the fact that he/she is a member of a society, a group or a family are deeply studied in sociology. Why do humans behave the way they do in societies is what sociologists are trying to find out.
Anthropology is the broadest social sciences as he studies different aspects of human beings in their physical characteristics, the study of their artifacts (archaeology). Yet it is when we speak of social anthropology, cultural anthropology is also there and the distinctions between sociology and anthropology are beginning to blur. The use of language by anthropologists to study human beings has a completely different approach than that adopted by sociologists to deliver there studies.

What problem does it solve?
Dental bleaching is a useful tool to lighten the natural color of teeth without damaging the tooth surface. It does not completely change the color of the teeth but lightens the existing color of different shades.
What is tooth whitening?
Tooth whitening is an aesthetic practice that aims to make the teeth whiter and brighter. There are interventions that can only be performed by professionals: cosmetic dentists and dental hygienists. However, there is also a way to perform the treatment at home (home kit), but before starting you should always consult a qualified dentist.
What is this practice?
The practice of tooth whitening is quite simple. If you go to our clinicall you have to do is make an appointment with our best dentist in Ashok Viharwho checks the state of health of the patient's oral cavity (it is important to remember that bleaching cannot be performed in the presence of a bad state of oral health, as it could aggravate problems resulting from caries, injured teeth and nerve damage). If the dentist confirms a good oral health status of the patient, you can start whitening immediately. It consists of sticking the teeth with a special gel and exposing them to a particular light source for 45 minutes. After a pause of 15 minutes, repeat the operation. The bleaching therefore consists of two sessions of 45 minutes each which allow the patient to leave the studio with a dazzling smile. There is also the possibility of performing this treatment at home without the use of the light source. This means that it is necessary to pass the gel on the teeth, making two applications of 45 minutes each with the help of a special instrument.
Are the effects of bleaching permanent?
Unfortunately, no bleaching is not permanent, but its effects last for at least 6 months. The thing depends however on the lifestyle and the diet that is followed. Red fruits and red wine do not help to preserve the effects of the practice described above for a long time. Coffee, tea, alcohol and cigarettes are also to be avoided.
Anyone wishing to book an appointment only has to call our customer service or send an email. Our colleagues are always at your disposal.

America's Monsters, Superheroes, and Villains
An exhibition by SuperMonster市City!
In different guises, monsters, superheroes, and villains have always been part of America's cultural fabric. They scare us, thrill us, and most importantly, help guide us through the most terrifying and exhilarating moments of our lives. America's Monsters, Superheroes, and Villains uses popular portrayals of these characters as a lens to explore America's changing values during the politically turbulent period of the 1960s to the 1990s.
The exhibition collects figures of playtime icons ranging from well-known DC and Marvel comic book characters to Ed "Big Daddy" Roth's anti-hero, Rat Fink, to Hollywood monsters of the 1960s. These toys are presented alongside their original packaging, posters, and other advertising materials that give further insight into their historical contexts and the evolution of toy design.
Organized around five themes—Unintended Consequences; Truth, Justice, and the American Way; Innocent Monsters; With Great Responsibility Comes Great Power; and Myths and Legends—the exhibition sheds light on the heroes, creatures, and villains that have captured the American imagination and the sociopolitical issues they reflect.
The exhibition also features a history of 'Do-It-Yourself' toys, a discussion of the evolution of materials and manufacturing, and a survey of censorship in American comic books.
American Monsters, Superheroes, and Villains is part of a traveling exhibition organized and curated by SuperMonster市City. Items featured in the exhibition were curated from David Barnhill's collection of over 200,000 vintage toys and memorabilia.

Pardon me while I do a little bit of catching up!
Ahh yes Copper Mountain! For me this is back to the place where my love for skiing all started! It has been a few years since I'd been back here and it was a perfect day to be back at Copper Mountain while of course playing hooky from the office in the middle of the week.
I had downloaded Copper's Sherpa app the night before with hopes of giving it a try, but that didnt happen as I had wanted, so I will have to try it another time. Nothing to do with the app itself, more to do with my equipmentI was able to try out another app I have been wanting to use, called Snowciety. It's of course a social app. Snowciety tracks your runs and give you important data, such as top speed, average speed, vertical elevation and distance. You can post comments and share your stats with your Snowciety friends or even share on facebook and other social media platforms. You can even see where your friends are on the mountain. I'll try to post a screenshot or two later of it if I can.
The pics taken here I took with my phone, so they arent the greatest captures but for the purpose of sharing them with you guys here on the blog they do the job. It was one of those bluebird days at Copper this day as you can see in the pictures. Great weather, short lift lines and not having to work each made for an awesome day on the slopes. Unfortunate for me it was the only time this past season that I was able to get some skiing in. Hopefully that will change for the better in the season ahead.

These Pests Cause Severe Infestation to Paddy Crop at Reproductive Stage
Paddy transplantation has come to an end in most parts of the country, and the panicle stage is about to begin in a few areas. In the event of inadequate care at this point, farmers may face economic losses. Let's analyse the probable pests that attack at this stage and the management of paddy insect pests. • Paddy Stem Borer: Larva feed inside the stem causing the central shoot to dry at the time of the panicle. As a consequence, the emerged panicle turns whitish with no grain filling. Infested shoots can be easily pulled out by the hands. This kind of damage is common in the paddy crop as 'White ear.' • Paddy Leaf Folder: Larva rolls the blade of the leaf by fastening its edges and feeds inside the green material. Transparent patches are seen on the leaves, and when the infestation is higher, the leaves turn white and eventually dry. • Paddy Leaf Hoppers: Hoppers suck the sap from the bottom of the stems. As a repercussion, yellow patches appear, which soon turn brownish and lead to drying. Burning effect seen on the plant is known as the symptoms of hopper burn. Infestation typically begins from the middle of the field and continues to spread in a circular way. Panicles do not emerge or the grain stays absent and the husk stays soft in the infested crops. • Rice Skipper: Larva fastens the edges of the leaf to make rolls and feeds inside. It remains in the fold and cuts off the leaves. • Horn Caterpillar: On the thorn, Larva has two red horns like structures in the head part. It starts to feed from the edges of the leaf and reaches to the middle of the rib. • Blue Beetle: The pest eats the green matter of the leaves. Given the unique feeding habit, white patches are seen parallel to the mid-vein of the leaf. • Rice Ear Head Bug: The pest emits an offensive odour and is therefore also known as the "Gundhy bug." Both nymphs and adults suck the grain sap at the milky stage. Consequently, the grains do not mature and remain empty. • Armyworm: It is also known as "Panicle cutter larva." Larva cuts the panicles that have emerged, which can be seen on the surface of the ground. • Sheath Mites: This pest sucks the sap from the leaves and makes it easier and faster for the fungus (sheath rot) to enter the leaf. As a direct result, not all grains are attached to the panicle and turn brownish. • Crabs: They cut down the plant near the water level. In addition, burrows are also produced on the bund which results in water being drained out of the paddy field. • Rats: They cut the matured panicles and store them in their burrows.
Chemical Management: • Dip the roots of seedling in 0.02% Chlorpyriphos 20 EC + 1% Urea for 4 hrs. prior to transplanting • Apply Quinalphos granules at 1.0 kg ai/ha 10 – 15 days after planting • The newly hatched borer larvae must be flit with 2 rounds of Quinalphos or Phosphomidon at 0.5 kg ai/ha at 7 days interval • Dusting with Malathion IS effective against gundi bug infestation • In case of armyworm infestation, spray the crop in the evening after sun set with Nuvan 0.5 kg a.i/ha Biological Management: • Field release of egg parasitoid Trichogramma japonicum at weekly interval @ 50,000 ha during egg laying stage of rice borer is very effective Release of mired bug Cytorhinus lividipennis @ 50 – 75 egg/ m2 Dr. T.

Building or converting your business premises: remember to think about fire risks
Do you have construction plans for your business? When building or converting premises, critical decisions are taken that have a major impact on the level of fire risk in your building. Are you taking the time to properly weigh up the options and the consequences of your decisions? Our colleague Christophe D'haeyere shares four crucial pieces of advice for keeping fire risks as low as possible.
How do you plan to fit out your business premises? What materials will you be using? What safety regulations and standards do you need to comply with? How do you select your suppliers? These are just a few of the many questions you will face as the project manager of a new construction project. It is not always easy to navigate your way through the endless options. Are you taking the time to consider the risks involved in the choices you make? Do you know what it might cost you if you make the wrong decisions? To help you handle the pressure of making these decisions, we are publishing this series of useful tips.
1) Think carefully about the construction materials you plan to use
During the design phase, you will decide on the type and quality of construction materials for your business premises, including the insulation. Picking the wrong materials can lead to an increased risk of fire during the operational phase later on. "This potential risk can threaten the safety of your employees and the continuity of your business," explains Christophe D'haeyere, construction insurance expert at Vanbreda Risk & Benefits. "Insurers will also be more likely to take a negative attitude and refuse to offer you the best insurance terms, which will make it difficult to negotiate a good insurance premium for your fire policy."
In a rapidly constricting market, where the interests of prevention will be strongly influenced by use of the correct insulation materials, it is worth aligning the selection of construction materials with your company's long-term vision.
2) Organise the layout of your business premises logically
"When visiting a company we sometimes encounter production areas, warehouses or office spaces that have not been designed logically for the business activity performed there," states D'haeyere. "This is often a space that has been extended or converted, but where the specifications and risks of the new activities have not been properly taken into account. In addition, the proper partitioning of spaces is an important fire safety factor for your building. The most important points to focus on here are whether the right zones have been partitioned off, whether the maximum surface area for a zone has been respected, and whether the way in which the partitioning was carried out complies with the current standards.
3) Evaluate the bids from your suppliers with an open mind
When embarking on a construction project, your company will be relying on a number of different parties in order to comply with all fire safety requirements. These include, for example, the installers of sprinkler systems or smoke detectors, the fire brigade with its fire regulations, design experts, etc. "Selecting and depending on certain suppliers can be a complex matter," states D'haeyere. "When comparing tenders, don't let yourself be guided solely by the price levels for a product or service. If you see a price that is considerably lower than the competition, the chances are that if you select this option you will be facing higher costs in the not-too-distant future. We advise you to check every supplier against a number of criteria. For example, is the supplier's attitude to sustainability and safety in sync with your business activities? Is the bid in line with market prices and conditions? Is the proposed product the specific type that you need? Is their approach compatible with those of the suppliers selected so far? Screening suppliers thoroughly provides solid foundations for a successful project."
4) Keep a close eye on standards, such as Annex 6
In terms of technical construction there are many directives and requirements relating to standards. This includes Annex 6, which is well known within construction circles. You may not be familiar with the difficulties or risks associated with these standards. In that case, seek the services of an expert to help guide you.
New construction or renovation of your own business premises: Vanbreda Risk & Benefits can help you figure it out
We are on hand to help you reach the right decisions for your business. Our insurance expertise and knowledge of the construction sector enable us to give you the best possible advice and assistance.
For example, we can help you with a fair evaluation of tenders from different suppliers, and may suggest alternatives. We can also assist with interpreting the various standards and ensuring your company receives the best possible deal. In addition, we can help you find the right insurance solutions: from the design phase through to completion of the works. Ask for a copy of our brochure on construction and conversion.
Has your company prepared a business continuity plan? Please remember to update this plan with the new risks created by your construction project.
We are there for you.

Undoubtedly you'll find our common bumblebee species: buff-tails, white-tails, garden bumblebees, early bumblebees, common carders, and red-tails. You can expect to find some cuckoo bumblebees, too - parasites that invade bumblebee nests, kill the queen, and enslave the workers. And perhaps, if you're lucky, you might find rarer species, such as the red-shanked carder.
Learn about the mysterious and ingenious life-cycles of these remarkable pollinators and the vital role they play in our ecology and food production. You're in the hands of a master.
This is a walking safari, at a gentle pace for about 2 ½ hours, with frequent stops for bee-spotting and catching. You'll need a moderate level of fitness and be able to cope with walking on uneven ground.

We like to switch things up in the summer at The Commons with lots of outdoor gatherings, BBQs, and trips to the beach. To help you keep everything straight here is a list of everything we have going on:
Potluck & Songs & Stories Gathering with Jared Both:
6pm – Sunday June 30th
Outside by Beasley Park (55 Elgin St.)
Bring some food for the potluck supper and listen to song writer Jared Both perform and share some stories that inspired the songs.
Community BBQ & Potluck Supper

Outdoor Worship Gatherings in July & August:
6pm Sundays – Beasley Park (Near 55 Elgin St.)
July 7th, 14th, 21st, and 28th
August 4th, 11th, and 25th
Our summer gatherings are inter-generational and super low key. Bring a blanket and chair to be comfortable. There is a playground, splash pad, and skate park near by so feel free to come early or stay late to enjoy the park. Each week at our gathering someone is going to talk about a song that has taught them something about following Jesus. It might be an old hymn, a new pop anthem or a lost indie song that never got it's fair share of plays.
Lake Church:
6pm, Sunday Aug 18th – Details Coming Soon!
Every year we move one of our summer gatherings out of the park and over to the shores of Lake Ontario. Beach location and bike ride route details to be announced soon. Sign up with Matt: thompsmr [at] gmail [dot] com

Beach Day:
Sun. Sept 1st at Fifty Point
10am Car Pool – 55 Elgin St.
Every year on the Sunday of the Labour Day weekend we cancel our worship gathering and spend the day at the beach just hanging out as a community. There is no plan and no expectations. If you want to read all day, do it. If you want to swim all day, go for it.
Cost: $15 Adults ($5 for Kids) Lunch & supper provided.
Please sign up and pay Krista by Aug. 18th to help us arrange the rides and food.
First Fall Gathering: Celebrating all things Mennonite!
4:30pm – Sunday September 8th – Back inside at St. John's (104 Hughson St. N.)
The Canadian Government has declared Sept 8th-14th "National Mennonite Heritage Week." Most of us at The Commons didn't grow up Mennonite but we joined the Mennonite church as adults because we resonated with the Mennonite values of:
"Jesus is the center of our Faith,"
"Community is the center of our Life,"
and "Reconciliation is the center of our Work."
For our first Sunday back inside we are going to explore what these values mean to Mennonites.

What are solutions, colloids, and suspensions?
2 Answers
These are three types of mixtures that are distinguished by the sie of the particles being mixed, and other properties (discussed below).
A solution is a mixture of two or more pure substances that is homogeneous. This means it is perfectly uniform everywhere, because the mixing occurs at a molecular level. The solution will be transparent, and will not separate over time. You cannot separate the components by filtering.
In a suspension, larger pieces are matter are combined (most agree on
A colloid is sort of "in-between" these two. Particle size is smaller (but not on the molecular level). A true colloid should not separate if left standing, Light passing through a colloid will tend to be scattered, with some light passing through, giving a translucent appearance.
Different numbers of phases and stabilities....
Solutions comprise a solute that is solvated by a solvent. Solvation means that the ions in a solution are surrounded by or complexed by molecules of the solvent (its a slightly more complex process for things such as polymer solutions, so I won't go into that here). The fact that the solute ions are completely surrounded by and/or complexed with solvent molecules mean that solutions are single phase and homogenous.
In a suspension, however, one phase is simply dispersed into small particles that float around in the solvent. There is no surrounding of, or complexing of, any species at the molecular or ionic level. Suspensions are therefore two phase (either solid/liquid, solid/gas, gas/liquid or liquid/imiscible-liquid) and are heterogeneous.
Many suspensions will separate on standing (solid particles fall to the bottom of the container, or gas bubbles coalesce and rise to the top, or two immiscble liquids separate into two layers). Colloids are a specific class of suspensions where the particle size is between 1 and 1000 nanometres (1 x

Community College Students Succeed
Published on Nov 21, 2017
A new study was recently released that addresses a common myth about community colleges. Data, about anything, is meant to tell a story. The data collected and reported by the federal government for many years has suggested that community colleges do not have sufficient student success. These data have systematically undercounted student success outcomes by providing only part of our story. Kevin Carey of The New York Times noted, "For the last few decades, the Department of Education has tracked graduation rates at colleges. Although a handful of elite colleges have graduation rates above 90 percent, many are below 50 percent-often, far below. But colleges have long complained that the federal rates are inaccurate. Back in 2008, Congress directed the department to study the matter." Mr. Carey was a member of the appointed group, the Committee on Measures of Student Success.
The common measures used previously looked at only first-time, full-time students-those who start their college experience at the specific college or university and go full-time. This student is usually an 18-year-old right out of high school. While this measure works for residential, four-year institutions, who serve mostly recent high school graduates, it does not work at all well for community colleges. Carey writes that community colleges serve "adults, parents, people with full-time jobs, people returning to school after years away. They often enroll part-time, taking longer to graduate than the three years.... Many community college students also transfer to four-year colleges before finishing a degree-a good result, but one that wasn't counted for graduation rates." These students and their success have been unreported for years.
It has been suggested that students at our institutions graduated at a rate of 20 percent after three years. The numbers are dramatically different when national data add part-time and returning students, extend the time period to eight years, include students who transferred before graduation, and consider students still in college. The new completion rates added 1.5 million students to the count and brought the completion and transfer rate nationally to over 60 percent. (Specific college results can be viewed at: https://nces.ed.gov/collegenavigator/.)
At BCTC, these new data show that the combined completion and transfer rate for all full-time students over eight years (starting in 2008) changed from 52 percent to 74 percent with 1 percent still enrolled at the original college. The part-time all student success rate moved from 40 percent to 53 percent plus 3 percent still enrolled. The ability to go part-time or to receive credit for prior learning provide an important benefit to our community. Technical and career program students as well as transfer students may need to go part-time or need the flexibility of shorter sessions and online learning. The opportunity to start a bachelors pathway at BCTC saves families money, gets students a solid start with smaller classes and individual attention, addresses transitional academic needs, and helps students hone their career interests-even if they do not receive a degree before transferring.
Carey goes on to say, "The big picture shows that community colleges were unfairly tarred by the old graduation rates. The results produced by including all students-and by looking over the right time frame and accounting for transfers-suggest that many prospective undergraduates may benefit from giving their local community college another look when searching for an affordable path to a degree." That is what we know and hear from our students all the time. While BCTC faculty and staff constantly strive to improve student outcomes, we know that many students would benefit from a start here. Check out what BCTC can do for you to move toward your educational goals!

A new law took effect Jan. 1, requiring that police departments release records involving disciplinary actions and critical events faster and more transparently, records some departments never released at all in the past.
Police Chief John Perez discussed the issue in an interview with Pasadena Now and said balance between the public's right to know and a disciplined officer's right to privacy must be struck.
Perez explained that the law applies to records related to shootings, use of force, serious injury, internal affairs investigations sustained for dishonesty, or incidents where an officer committed a sexual offense on duty.
"The law is clear on that." said Perez, "The question for us is, how far back is the period going to be? Is it 2019? Or going back five years? 10 years, 15 years? And that's where the debate is at in court and we see some [police] agencies in the area shredding some of their documents, so it's all moving very quickly."
The California Supreme Court, on June 2, refused to rule on a request of the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Employees' Benefit Association to determine whether or not the law applies to records retroactively.
The lawsuit sought to bypass the normal run through the Superior and Appeals courts, but did not find a sympathetic ear. The Supreme Court also refused to issue an injunction delaying enforcement of the law until the issue gets a full legal review, as requested by the union representing San Bernardino sheriffs.
The Pasadena Police Officers Association (PPOA), the union representing city cops, did not respond to multiple queries regarding its position on the new law, known as SB 1421 during its legislative life.
"We need the law," said Kris Ockershauser, American Civil Liberties Union of Southern California. "I'm sure our PPOA is supportive of various police unions' operations trying to destroy what SB 1421 is doing. Although I don't think they've come out publicly, they're generally anti-reform in almost any of the incidents that we've talked about with them or the city."
Perez said he foresees an event whereby the request to keep a dashcam video of a shooting under wraps comes, not from the police, but from a victim's family. "They will say this is enough," opined Perez. "We don't want you putting our son or daughter [out in public]. We know what happened on that video."
SB 1421 was authored by State Sen. Nancy Skinner (D-Berkeley).
According to a Senate floor analysis of the bill, the California Supreme Court issued a decision in 2006, which held that the records from a police officer's administrative disciplinary appeal of a sustained finding of misconduct was protected from public disclosure.
After the ruling, California became, the analysis noted, "one of the most secretive states in the nation in terms of openness when it comes to officer misconduct and uses of force. Moreover, interpretation of our statutes have carved out a unique confidentiality exception for law enforcement that does not exist for public employees, doctors and lawyers, whose records on misconduct and resulting discipline are public records."

Original Watercolor Painting on Paper
10" x 14"
$ 900
This beautiful cedar tree is rooted at the very edge of the Jekyll Island beach. Standing under its cool shade, you can see across the channel. Dolphins play in the water and birds nest in the Spanish moss dripping from the live oaks surrounding you.
Next time you go to Jekyll Island, have a picnic under the spreading live oaks, looking out over the water. It's cool and peaceful here, with deep, darks shadows. A brief change from the the bright white beach.
You'll see more wildlife than you would expect, sitting and watching these twisted branches in the sun.
The ancient cedar tree stands guardian against the tide, holding the island together with its roots.
