May 4th to May 10th 2005 Two weeks ago, I went to Sofia and Plovdiv, Bulgaria. I was invited to give lectures at the University of Plovdiv. When I arrived at the Sofia airport, I was not too surprised as to how small and run down it was, but it really looked like a throwback to the Communist times. I took a taxi from there to the bus station (8 Leva or about $3.75) and then the bus to Plovdiv (2 hour ride). I am used to the travels between airports and city centers being less than attractive. Coming from the Budapest airport to the city is not a good impression either. However, I thought that as the bus made its way through the city to leave, I would see some sights of note. All that I saw were old run down buildings in block style without any decoration to distinguish them from one another. Everything looked drab to me. The few statues I noticed looked like the Communist statues that Budapest has since relegated to Statue Park. Plovdiv, the second largest city in Bulgaria was not much different. There were little oasis patches of interest, though. There is one area that they uncovered an ancient Roman amphitheater in tact. One of the Bulgarian professors told me when she was a girl, it was just a hill. Now this entire section of the city is restricted digging. No matter where they dig, they find Roman treasures or ruins. There were some interesting restored buildings in this area, but few. All of the restaurants I was brought to were amazingly attractive once off of the street, but you would never know from the outside or the neighborhoods. I was also taken to the second largest monastery in Bulgaria. Unfortunately, I did not write down the name. It was lovely and very interesting, but very small compared to others I have seen. Lining the road up to the monastery entrance were stalls selling pottery, jams, jellies, and honey. I bought a beautiful 4 gallon sized dutch oven type pot, a large platter, and four bowls all hand painted with a gorgeous design for $16.00. A cooking lesson was included. The dutch oven has been used at least 6 times since returning and it was a great investment. I had to return to Sofia for two days for a conference and although I was cloistered at a university, the bit of city that I saw around my hotel in the center, was nothing to cheer about. The university was fantastic and well equipped, which was an anomaly. It also has a wonderful restaurant on the campus, since there was nothing else within walking distance. I had to take taxis everywhere when I was not traveling from city to city with the exception of the monastery, where I was toured by a professor. Taxis are cheap. Trips ranged from 75 cents to $2.00. My hotel in Plovdiv (Saint Petersburg, formerly the Lenin) was newly remodeled and was far above the 3 star rating it held. My room was huge with a sofa, tables and chairs. They have a huge water 'playground' outside, though the pools were not filled yet. Breakfast was a tremendous buffet each morning. The staff was fantastic and accommodating. My hotel in Sofia was less pleasant, but clean. I have since talked to others who have been in Bulgaria. I heard of one person who was a Fulbrighter who spent a year in Sofia and loved it. Many others thought it was drab and depressing. I understand there are other parts of Bulgaria that are magnificent. At this point, I am only interested in returning for professional reasons or to buy more pottery. : )Pin It Now!

Bulgaria Professional Report0 comments
Ryan James, Ed.D. Trip Report for Bulgaria May 4- 10, 2005 At the request of Ronda Critchlow, Junior English Language Fellow at the University of Plovdiv, I was invited to give educational presentations to the faculty and students. The dates were set based on faculty advice and convenience. The Bulgarian EFL conference was also scheduled during this time frame; therefore it was agreed that I would also attend and present at this conference. A presentation for Oxford Publishing was also included. The list of presentations follows. They were decided after Ms. Critchlow surveyed the faculty for topic suggestions. I arrived in Sofia on May 4, 2005 and took a taxi to the bus station, where I took the bus to Plovdiv. I was met at the bus station by Ms. Critchlow and her Bulgarian counterpart. After settling into the hotel, the three of us went to dinner to discuss the presentations that would follow. Both were most hospitable and made me feel welcomed and relaxed immediately. May 5, 2005 I delivered three presentations. The full schedule is below. All presentations were well advertised. The university had flyers posted on bulletin boards, professors had announced them to their students, and invitations were sent out to the public school teachers. The attendance at the presentations was as follows: At the first presentation there were 28 participants. There were 27 participants at the second presentation. The third presentation at Oxford Publishing had 12 participants. The Oxford Publishing rep was disappointed at the turnout since she had 25 confirmations; however, she was overwhelmed that the participants became so involved in the activities. May 6, 2005 was a national holiday and everything was closed. We originally had plans to leave for Sofia on this day, but it was decided to wait until Saturday morning, due to the holiday. This necessitated booking the hotel in Plovdiv for one extra night not planned, and then canceling one night at the hotel in Sofia. May 7, 2005, Ms. Critchlow and I took an early bus to Sofia. We arrived at the conference during the registration period and spent the entire day and evening at the conference. May 8, 2005 we both had presentations at the conference. I was extremely pleased that the conference organizers assigned me to an extra large room. Every seat was filled and late comers left due to lack of seating. The room held 50 seats. Later in the afternoon, I attended Ms. Critchlow's presentation, which was excellent, well received and well attended. We left Sofia to return to Plovdiv late in the afternoon. Monday, May 9, 2005 I again gave three presentations at the university. Presentation one had 8 participants. Presentation two had 30 participants. Presentation three had 14 participants. I had an opportunity to meet many of the staff and students. Many faculty members apologized for not attending various presentations as they had time conflicts. They admitted that when this was first arranged, they thought they would be able to attend more sessions, but other things occurred in the meantime. Due to issues with infrastructure, there was no possibility to make copies of the hand-outs for attendees either at the university or for the conference. The university only has one photocopier that is not coin operated and it was not working by the time I had arrived. Each hand-out was lengthy and it would have taken an unusual amount of time and coins to prepare copies for the participants. However, all lecture notes and hand-outs were given to Ms. Critchlow on a DVD for reference and to be distributed as needed. I would be remiss if I did not add that Ms. Critchlow was an exemplary hostess. She guided me along the entire stay, to make sure that everything ran as smoothly as possible. She went above and beyond to entertain me in the free time I had and make my stay extremely enjoyable. Even in our free time, we met with and had dinner with students and other professors, so this was productive time also. It is evident that Ms. Critchlow's presence at this university is welcomed, appreciated, and honored. The faculty and students have a great deal of respect for her as a person and as a professional. Being able to work with her, the staff, and the students was a significant highlight in my professional career. I sincerely hope I have the opportunity to be of professional assistance to Ms. Critchlow again. Ryan James, Ed.D.

text: How to Pack for the Beach with Baby Frugal Momeh This post is brought to you by AVEENO® Baby and The Co. A day at the beach is a great way to spend a hot summer day. The thought of how hectic it can get with a baby can be enough to make you want to abandon the sun and sand. It doesn't need to be that way though – with a well-stocked beach bag, you can be ready for anything. Sure, travelling with a baby is not always easy, but it's easier to enjoy if you plan ahead and stay organized for a fun and safe day out. How to Pack for the Beach with a Baby Sunscreen If your baby is older than 6 months, you will want to protect their skin with broad-spectrum sunscreen. Not all sunscreens are created equal, and our family favourite is AVEENO® Baby Sensitive Skin Mineral Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50. It is a naturally-sourced sunscreen with ACTIVE NATURALS® colloidal oatmeal that helps to nourish and hydrate baby's delicate, sensitive skin while providing broad-spectrum protection from the Sun. AVEENO® Baby Sensitive Skin Mineral Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50 is a trusted part of our sun-safe strategy to help keep baby's skin healthy, nourished and protected from damage. It absorbs easily and provides great waterproof coverage for not only our littlest one, but for our preschooler as well. We also use AVEENO® Baby Sensitive Skin Mineral Sunscreen Face Stick SPF 50 which provides all the same protection as the lotion but makes applying to baby's face super easy. Wet Bag Keep wet swimsuits, towels and other damp items separate from dry items with a wet bag. These are available where you find cloth diapers sold if you don't already have one. You can also simply recycle an old grocery bag to help maintain separation. Talc-Free Baby Powder Nobody likes vacuum up a pile of sand at the end of a day at the beach or finding it days later in your stroller, your bag and hundreds of other places. Help get rid of unwanted sand by rubbing a little baby powder onto your baby's skin. The powder absorbs moisture and the sand simply falls right off. Protective swimming hats You will want to protect little heads from the summer sun by packing a hat made with UPF material to provide another layer of sun protection for your baby. Beach Toys What kind of trip to the beach would it be without sand toys? Find a cheap set of beach toys to take along so if a piece gets lost it's not a big loss. You can typically find fun sets including a bucket, sifting lid, cups, and a shovel from your local dollar store or drug store. Insulated water bottles & Snacks Dehydration can be a serious risk in the summer sun, especially for little ones. Be sure to throw some good BPA-free insulated water bottles (baby bottles or sippy cups) filled with cold water into your beach bag. Trust me, you'll be happy to have them when your baby eats a mouthful of sand. Don't forget to pack some healthy snacks too – fresh cut veggies and fruit will help keep hunger at bay but also provide a welcome distraction from all that sand little ones love to stick in their mouths. Hooded Towels Keep your baby dry and warm with a hooded towel. They are ideal for quickly towelling off little ones and keeping them warm and comfortable. Sun Glasses for Baby The sun doesn't just affect our skin, but also our eyes so be sure to pack baby a pair of sunglasses with UVA and UVB protection. First aid kit Your beach bag should include a first aid kit. Bites, scratches, cuts and stings are almost sure to happen at the beach so be ready for it to happen with an up-to-date first aid kit. Regular & Swim Diapers Swim diapers will hold in the solids but won't help you with liquids so be sure to remember to bring along regular diapers for when you leave the beach. Camera You will want to capture memories from your beach day out with baby but leave your DSLR at home and pack a small point-and-shoot camera instead. You won't have to worry as much about the water and sand and it will be easier to lug around in your beach bag. Disclosure: This post has been sponsored by AVEENO® Baby . All thoughts and opinions are honest and my own.

Yeah, I'm trying to dial it in but it's caught between arcade and sim in an awkward spot. I'm on PS4, sadly so I can't crash into you. So far the reviews have been positive too, which makes me wonder what's up with me. Probably the first racer in a decade where I'm needing to spend time learning the tracks.
EDIT: Yeah, learn the tracks, stay upright and you'll be fine.
McLaren are going to be fun to watch this year. Mercedes have been pretty quiet in testing. Not sure if there's much to gauge from that.

The customfishing fishing report

6/1/05 Fox River. & 6/2/05 AM
Jamie here.
Mike and I hit the Fox River last night in his boat. We launched at about 7pm and headed upstream for a half a mile or so to an area that Mike has been fishing for years. Our main baits the we threw were topwater lures like buzzbaits and Chug Bugs. While covering all of Mike's best-kept-secret spots we raised up quite a few smallmouth bass. Mike caught 4 or 5. I got one and a foul hooked carp that I fought for the better part of 15 minutes.
At spot #1 we watched this gentleman fight a monster carp on a dry fly. It was a cool battle to witness.
Mike was the first one to connect with a good size smallmouth bass that exploded on a Chug Bug as we fished shoreline rocks and small wing dams.
I tied into a big carp by accident after Mike caught a couple more smallies. It ripped out 100 yards of line a couple times as it made some tremedous power-runs downstream. I got it in after about 15 minutes of a back and forth fight
Mike nailed a couple more nice smallies as darkness fell.
And I picked up a nice one that slammed a buzzbait in the last spot of the trip.
I had a half hour to kill this morning so i ran down to the river to make a couple casts. I only got one...but she was pretty nice. I caught this fish over the weekend as well on a jig & twister set-up. Today she went after a Chug Bug twitched on the surface of the water. That's a real testiment as to how well catch & release fishing works. I'm going to stay away from this spot for a while because I don't want to catch her a third time.....just wouldn't be fair.

World Record Blue Catfish
We were called on by the State Of Illinois this weekend to do a Life Size Trophy Print os Tim Pruitt's 124lb world record blue catfish that he caught last week in the Mississippi River near Alton ,Il. He'll be awarded honors during a ceremony at the State House tomorrow (June1, 2005) . We got the print out and shipped it overnight.
Not bad, eh? We got a world record fish in on Tuesday morning and it'll be hung up on Wednesday morning.
Congradulations Tim!! You got alot of jaw-dropping-stares here in the Customfish.com shop when that fish rolled off the press!
Thanks to Marc Miller and the State Of Illinois for choosing Customfish.com for this very special project.

Field Service: Step-by-Step Job Guidance, Service Report Enhancements, and Dispatch Console in Communities
Develop easy-to-navigate lists of tasks to guide your team through their work in the field. Enjoy new options on service reports, including the ability to select the language. Help dispatchers schedule more efficiently by creating custom Gantt color palettes and sharing the dispatching duties with Lightning community users.
Point Your Workforce to the Next Step with Lightning Flow for Service
Your agents, dispatchers, and mobile workers often perform the same sequence of tasks for different customers. Standardize recurring tasks with Lightning Flow for Service, and walk your workers through steps in a guided action list. Create a work type to display the list on your work orders and work order line items.
Generate Service Reports in Other Languages
When a field service job spans multiple languages, communication can be challenging. A new field on work orders lets you create a service report in any supported language. For example, for a particular work order, you can create one service report in French for the French-speaking customer, and a second one in German for the Berlin-based supervisor.
Transfer Serialized Product Items (Beta)
Create product transfers to track the movement of product items whose Serial Number field is filled out. The location on a product item auto-updates when a transfer is complete, making it easy for your team to find out where the item is stored or installed. Previously, serialized product items couldn't be transferred.
Write Service Report Triggers
Extend the way you use service reports by creating Apex triggers. For example, set up a trigger to email your customer whenever a service report is created for them.
Quickly Find Signed Service Reports
When multiple service reports are generated for a work order, work order line item, or service appointment, some might contain signatures and others might not. Use the new Signed checkbox on service reports to identify service reports that contain signatures.
Automatically Share Service Appointments and Work Orders
Set overriding sharing rules within Salesforce, so when a service resource is assigned a service appointment, the appointment and its parent record are shared with the service resource.
View Related Product Transfers on Locations and Product Items
The new Product Transfers (Destination) and Product Transfers (Source) related lists on locations show you product transfers to and from the location. The new Product Transfers related list on product items shows related product transfers, which track the movement of inventory.
User Profile Image Storage on Android
To prevent crashing on Android L devices, the Field Service Lightning Android Mobile App 4.1.1 patch, released September 11, 2018, puts user profile images in external device storage. The new permission is automatically enabled with the patch.
Field Service Managed Package: Community Dispatchers, Gantt Color Palettes, and Custom Actions for the Dispatcher Console
The dispatcher's job just got a little easier. Let contractor managers manage their team's assignments by giving them access to the dispatcher console in a Lightning community. Spruce up the Gantt with custom palettes that color-code service appointments based on a chosen field. Highlight key information in the dispatcher console with the help of custom actions, an upgraded utilization view, improvements to the map, and greater control over appointment booking settings.

How do you recognize your role in an unhealthy relationship dynamic? This is the question Tracey and I are asking on this week's episode of Curious and Curiouser. Using the framework of the drama triangle — a social model originally conceived by Psychologist Stephen Karpman — Tracey and I talk about how to recognize when you're falling into an unhealthy relationship dynamic, identify which role you are playing, and start moving towards a healthier version of that role.
Tracey and I also talk about which roles we tend towards and our personal experiences of how recognizing these patterns in ourselves and our relationships has shifted the way we interact with the people we love.
This conversation is good, y'all. And full of useful tools you can start using right away in your life. Tracey and I sincerely hope you find it helpful!
If you do, please consider leaving us a 5-star rating or review in iTunes. We are really trying to grow our audience right now and need your help! Leaving a review only takes a few minutes and goes a long way towards helping us reach more people with the show. Thank you!

Lollapalooza 2008
Grant Park
Ever since I was a youngin' I wanted to go to Lollapalooza. 2008 was the year I finally got to go. As this is a 3day festival, I'm going to review each day seperately.
Day 1: August 1, 2008
I walked a mile in line to get into the gates and that was at 12:30ish before the majority of people showed up. I caught the last two songs of K'Naan's set and it was pretty interesting. very rhythmic angry black rapping. The Black Lips were up next, and they were strait up garage rock mixing 50s-60s style rhythms with grungey guitars. They were very energetic and put on a good show. Back to the Playstation Stage for Butch Walker. This guy comes out with an acoustic guitar and immediately I think he's going to suck... well unless he sang "But Lovin'." The first song he sang was just a mellow ballad, but then on his second song he did a neat trick and looped two bars of music on his guitar, a shaker, a keyboard, and a bass guitar in succession, and rapped out the story of his life in a charlie daniels singsongy way. He was joined by the rest of his band and proceded to rock out.
The Go! Team was up next back on the Bud Light Stage, and while it seemed like it was going to be pretty cool, it really wasn't. For one, they had 2 drummers. For two, they had this crazy frontwoman who rapped all the songs. If you could actually hear what she was saying over the music, it may have been better... oh but then they had to play some Jpop. Public Enemy sounding stuff good; JPop bad. The Kills were playing over on the other half of the park but I caught their set on the jumbotron at Lederhosen's Beer Garden. Wow was it terrible. I'm glad I didn't walk over there to see them. Maybe it's the inner bass player in me, but I'm not particularly big on 2 piece acts. Which brings us to the Black Keys. If you took the Black Lips, got rid of two of them and slowed the two others to half energy, you'd get the Black Keys. That said, they were good, but not great.
After the Black Keys set, I walked over to the south half of the park. It was shitty that I had to skip out on The Raconteurs to go see The Jicks, but before I could see them, I had to overhear Bloc Party's set. The band has so much promise, and yet puts out crap. At least I got move up close to the myspace stage while they played across the field. Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks were right up there with Butch Walker as the best acts of Day One. I knew Malkmus from his Pavement days and knew that he would kick ass live. If only every early 90s indie rock band's frontman went out on their own. Finally the night ended with Radiohead. While walking around during Bloc Party's set everyone was super psyched about seeing Radiohead. I, myself, have never gotten in to Radiohead, but I figured I would give their live show a chance. After the first three songs, I saw all that I needed to see. Im sure it was a great show to Radiohead fans, but I just dont care about Radiohead.
Day 1 Highlight: Tie between Butch Walker's song about Brookyln and Stephen Malkmus interacting with a rabid fan talking about how we need more people like him.... in the White House, and telling him he was going to get a groin injury from screaming.
Day 1 Lowlight: Not getting any cell phone reception during the show. The show is fucking sponsored by ATT and yet I couldn't call or text anyone to find out where they were.
Day Two: August 2, 2008
With no one really catching my eye on the bill, I decided to start out on one of the small stages and saw a New York band known as The Postelles. They were super young and it seemed like all their stage prescence was derived from That Thing You Do. But they were having a blast playing on stage for 200 people or so. After their set, I went over to the Bud Light Stage where Does It Offend You, Yeah? was playing, and they were awesome. A great show featuring raw electro rock, if thats such a thing. Imagine if Dave Gahan got together with Jon Spencer, and you'd have an idea of how awesome it was. After them I went back to the BMI stage where the crowd had tripled for a and called Innerparty System--quite possibly the best thing to come out of Philly since Stevie Richards. The best I can describe them is Orgy, if they were four indie rock guys instead of rivetheads (or as close to rivetheads as Orgy gets). You know a band is awesome when even the keyboard player goes nuts on stage. The Foals were the next band I saw over, on the other small stage. They had jam band sort of feel at the beginning, and I wasn't really big on seeing a bunch of people stand on stage in a circle and play to themselves instead of the crowd, but later in their set they opened up their sound with big melodies and U2 like vocals. Almost as good as the band was watching the group of hippies in front of us do their little hippie twostep.
The next three bands weren't much to write home about, but I will, anyways. MGMT was another band that had promise, but exactly like Bloc Party, they weren't very good. Explosions in the Sky would be an awesome band to listen to in the background, but their almost Ambient, fully instrumental rock doesn't translate the festival stage. Okkerville River would have been good if you were a girl who listens to college rock, but not if you were at a show getting ready for rage.
Lupe Fiasco was an impecable showman and with a live band behind him really tore up the joint. The Toadies played the spot on the Myspace Stage that the Jicks played friday, right before the closer on the ATT stage, but nobody noticed. Well, I take that back, when they played Possum Kingdom, people remembered who they were. And then there was Rage. Wow. You know a show is just exploding when Zach had to stop 3 or 4 times and tell the crowd to take 5 steps back.
Day 2 Highlight: Killing in the Name Of, especially thanks to the guy in front of us who probably exhausted himself rocking out. Despite his buddy bailing on him when the girl his buddy was with decided she wanted sex right then, he went so full force that in betwen songs he had to take a knee. Though some of the "smart water" we gave him seemed to perk him up.
Day 2 Lowlight: Probably the slew of laid back no engergy sets in between The Foals and Lupe.
Day Three: August 3, 2008
The first band I caught on day 3 was called The Blakes, an power trio out of Seattle that were nonstop straight up rock and roll. I only caught the last half of their set, but from what I saw, I was rocked. Half an hour after the Blakes, What Made Milwaukee Famous took the Citi stage, and tore it up. I was surprised that a band that good would go on so early on such a small stage, but then again, I guess they are pretty much the Clarks of Austin. This wouldnt be the only weird choice of stages for the day. We went to the Bud Light stage next to see the John Butler Trio. They were super talented, but as Im not really into jam band music, I left after the first half of their set. We stopped to cool off at the shaded BMI stage, where folk artist Newton Falkner was doing his thing. There was one moment of note when he started to sing a cover of Dead or Alive's You Spin Me.
From there we went to the MySpace stage where Chromeo was kicking it old school. One of the better 3 electro bands of the festival. Nothin' says lovin' like 80s funk, complete with Zapp inspired voicebox. G Love and Special Sauce were up next, and cooled down the whole crowd with their laid back blues. We needed our rest too, because the next band on our queue was the high octane Irish rock of Flogging Molly, who also played on way too small of a stage. There were definately more people crammed into the Playstation stage for Flogging Molly, than the next band up on the Bud Light Stage, Love and Rockets. Love and Rockets are completley meh. It's like watching The Cult but without both Ian or Billy. For their closer, weird black and white beelike costumed dancers came out and jerked around on stage behind the band. It was weird, and unnecessary, but Perry seemed to like them as they showed him rocking out backstage.
The National took the space previously occupied by Flogging Molly and put on a great show. Turning back around to the Bud Light stage, Nine Inch Nails began their set... and thoroughly disappointed me. I dont think there were any keyboards on the first three songs they played. Larry and I weren't really feeling it, so we decided to join up with the rest of the group for Kanye. We got over to the ATT stage just as he took the stage. Kanye had great visuals, put on a great show, but I think that I was the only person in the group of 1000 people in our area of the field that didn't know anything Kanye. I will say this, the super white Sunday news anchor from Chicago's ABC affiliate was right. It was off the hook.
Day 3 Highlight: Kanye givin up to his overwhelmingly honkey crowd by playing Dont Stop Believin' before his closer.
Day 3 Lowlight: poor stage choices. Kid Sister gets to sing about her toes getting painted on the ATT stage cause she's a friend of Kanye, but Flogging Molly and What Made Milwaukee Famous get pushed onto smaller stages despite having more fans.
Overall, I had a blast at Lollapalooza and will go back next year. It must be an amazing feeling for the bands too, especially the smaller acts who start with a loyal cabal of 20-30 fans, but by sets end look out and see that 500 people are digging their sound.

Before editing The Superyacht Book, Tony Harris spent a decade as publisher and chief executive officer of Boat International magazine – which is to say that he's no stranger to the world of luxury yachts.
But researching and assembling the tome, published this month by , was as much a study on nautical design as it was a reflection on the evolution of luxury.
"A few major developments have happened over the last 10 years," Harris said. "Primarily the boats are getting bigger. Much bigger."
They're also getting greener, he said – lightweight materials such as composites and glass make for sleeker designs and more efficient fuel consumption, so yacht-goers get the double-win of feeling sustainable and spending longer amounts of time sailing between refuels. Harris says yachts are the perfect reflection of societal trends at large.
A change in design
"They're no longer just a five-star hotel on the water – they're more an activity centre," he said, referring to the helipads, movie theatres, submarines, and beach clubs now built into the world's most spectacular boats.
"The experience of spending time on a motor yacht has changed significantly," said Harris. "Ten or 15 years ago, you were looking at the water from over a railing on the deck, as you might do on a cruise ship. Now, yachts have beach clubs right at water level and folding balconies on a lot of the cabins so you can take breakfast with the water right below you – you're truly part of the surroundings."
As a lifelong sailor, Harris's favourite ship in the book is the 170-foot (52 metre) Royal Huisman Elfje – it was designed to look timeless and sail from the tropics to the Arctic and beyond. "She's got a fantastic pedigree from both builder and designer, and she'd be perfect for a round-the-world cruise and at some speed, too," he said.
High rollers on high seas
"A yacht is a very public statement of how successful you are and what you've achieved in life – to commission a yacht like this, you need to have a certain amount of liquid assets to fund not only the build but the running costs. It tends to be a pretty exclusive club. But one of the greatest luxuries that yachting of these sorts provides those people is privacy. It's a very public display of wealth, but it affords the owner a huge amount of privacy that they can't get through renting villas or resorts."
Yacht owners are famously secretive about their identities. But Harris says the book represents "successful fashion entrepreneurs who are reasonably well-known, certainly some tech billionaires, and a number of Russian entrepreneurs." He says most are male – but not all. And the youngest, he estimates, is in their late 30s.
The Superyacht Book is available for purchase .

Wedding Photography Articles for photographer
Maybe photography's digital revolution isn't quite all it's cracked up to be. Sure, instant review and multiple-gigabyte memory cards make shooting large numbers of wedding photos easier than ever before, but managing thousands of digital images after the event is quite another matter. Photographers shooting film are most familiar with the process of sending exposed film to the lab for such tasks as color correction, sizing, dust spotting, or retouching. For all digital shooters out there, gigabytes of photographic data demand your attention; an extremely challenging proposition that could quite easily drain any remaining free time from your life. Richard Esposito's workflow setup Fortunately, those working on the bleeding edge of this new technology -- including WPJA award winning photographers like David Jay, Christopher Record, Eric Cable, and Richard Esposito -- have adopted and customized an arsenal of hard-earned strategies and high-tech tools for streamlining their workflow, saving untold hours of time and frustration. All are worthwhile considerations for any wedding photographer looking to thrive in the digital landscape. TOOLS OF THE TRADE Digital media has fueled the rise of an entirely new class of software that focuses on data management, especially critical for anyone dealing with thousands of photos. In addition to letting you tag, sort and perform basic editing operations on your images, photo management tools such as Adobe Bridge, Photo Mechanic, Apple's Aperture (or just Aperture), Adobe Lightroom (currently in beta), as well as traditional image editing products such as the venerable Adobe Photoshop, include batch processing features that automate repetitive tasks across large sets of images. Batch capability is also available within the Windows and Macintosh operating systems, allowing a task to extend across separate software tools. Batching can be a massive timesaver, and makes all the difference in keeping your business viable and your life in balance. Photoshop actions are among the most powerful and widely used batching tools available to digital photographers. They allow you to record all of the steps you would use on a particular photo, and then with a single click of the mouse apply each of those steps in the same sequence to a large set of images that you place in a target folder. Actions can handle such tasks as rotating, resizing, adjusting skin tones or converting to a warm-tone black and white image, lightening shadows, sharpening, adding a border, adding a copyright to a proof and resaving as a high-resolution JPEG, shunting processed photos to multiple target folders, and much more. Actions are fairly simple to access and create, and are controlled from Photoshop's Actions palette under the Window menu, where you'll find a number of prerecorded actions included with the software. You can also choose from thousands of third-party actions packages developed especially for photographers. To increase efficiency further, you can assign actions to the function keys on the top of your keyboard, using all four levels for each key by means of the shift and control keys. For example, you could set one action as F2, another as Shift F2, another as Control F2, and still another as Control-Shift F2. If you're using a Macintosh you can even activate actions by dragging sets of image files over action icons on your desktop. OTHER BATCH-SAVVY PRODUCTS Adobe Bridge has been a mainstay for many professionals who need to organize and generally manage large numbers of digital images. David Jay notes that Auto Adjustment settings for Raw in Adobe Bridge can allow one-click processing of an entire project, correcting color and exposure over a set of photos shot in a single scene. "It's incredible what Bridge can do without me even having to open any files," he says. Photo Mechanic 4.4 from Camera Bits, Inc. now handles Raw images and offers sorting, organizational, and color management, as well as a set of powerful batch editing tools. Digital Transitions' highly popular Capture One Pro 3.7 (http://www.digitaltransitions.com) offers even more robust editing features with similar batching benefits. Both products allow you to work with large sets of photos to automatically resize and rename, assign captions and keywords, print contact sheets and proofs, apply IPTC stationery (city, state, name, copyright, etc.), create backups on separate disks, or open a contact sheet -- all with one click of the mouse. Upon returning from a wedding, Christopher Record uses Photo Mechanic to push images from his cards into five folders -- preparation, ceremony, reception, group formals and portraits -- and sorts them by time. "I then use my own Photoshop actions for sizing, and some third-party action packages to help me create sepia tones and other special effects," he says. Eric Cable notes that batch processing can become especially powerful when combined with parallel hardware systems. He usually shoots 2,500 to 3,200 images per wedding, all Raw. Using two Scandisk USB readers and two Lexar Firewire readers for the 45 one-gigabyte cards holding the files, he uses Breeze Systems' Downloader Pro to automatically back up his images one multiple RAID drives in abut 25 minutes. "I have two dual-processor workstations that I built myself," he notes, "Once I've transferred the files off the cards, they're sent to a second machine which automatically burns the images to DVDs while I'm editing on the first. I can do my work without having to mess with the DVDs" Cable then loads those thousands of Raw files into Photo Mechanic, culling, sorting and tagging them to get down to about 500 final JPEG candidates. He sends those to Photoshop, where he has several custom-coded scripts, which he calls "actions on steroids," that rename, resize, and place the images in separate folders. It's a 12-hour job, but the computer automatically does all of the work while Cable attends to the rest of his life. "Hire good help if you need to," Cable says. "Not too many people use the scripting capabilities of Photoshop, and it is true that it's not simple unless one knows Java or some other programming. Myself, I could not code my way out of a wet paper bag, but it is not too hard to get someone else to write a script, and the time savings are huge." APERTURE AND LIGHTROOM: THE NEW GENERATION A new generation of powerful photo management tools, created from the ground-up for Raw, is now hitting the market and saving photographers even more time in post. Apple's Aperture made a big splash when it was introduced last fall at PhotoPlus Expo in New York. Designed to work seamlessly with Photoshop, it is a deep and elegant product boasting a range of powerful photo management and non-destructive image correction features. In fact, it has already caused significant numbers of digital photographers not already working on a Mac to purchase one (though Apple has wisely announced a Windows version.) Not to be left in the cold, Adobe in January '06 announced Lightroom. Richard Esposito claims that Aperture running on his duel-processor Macintosh G5 has cut his photo editing time in half. He loads 1,200 to 1,500 Raw files into a single Aperture folder, and then uses its highly customizable Viewer Window and Browser to quickly rate or reject images in the master set, eventually pairing down to a final set of 500 to 600. At this point he runs through the set again, applying changes to exposure, brightness, contrast, white balance and crops as needed. "One of the beautiful things about Aperture is that each iteration of an image is stored only as data that describes the changes, not actual changes to the original Raw file," Esposito notes. "This means that each additional version of a master Raw file is only 5K to 20K in size. You can imagine the speed and hard drive savings this makes possible." TEN "BEST PRACTICE" TIMESAVERS Some of the most effective post-production timesavers don't even require programming or the purchase of extra hardware and software, but instead rely on thoughtful planning, preparation and best practices. Here are a few parting tips from our experts: Turn off the television, unplug the phone, and eliminate all distractions. It may sound a little extreme, but this is what Esposito tells the numerous studios who hire him to analyze their workflows. "It's amazing how much time can be wasted when unnecessary diversions are competing for your attention," he says. Get the image right to begin with. Assuming that you'll "fix it in post" is a recipe for wasted time, make sure that white balance is properly calibrated before you shoot, and that exposure is optimal. Esposito shoots a white, grey, and black calibration target, analyzing his histogram each time he enters a new environment, whether indoors or out. Synchronize the clocks on all of your cameras. This assures that when you sort photos later in your studio everything syncs up. This can be a major time-saver, according to Cable. He also recommends numbering memory cards chronologically and keeping them organized in that manner. Make sure your equipment is spotless. Esposito recommends that you clean your lenses and sensors once a week, as a hair or spot on either element will at the very least require hours of studio time to correct -- that is if it doesn't ruin the entire shoot. Shoot in Raw to avoid noise. Cable points out that Raw allows you to shoot at 1600 or 3200 ISO without noise, significantly reducing the need to use noise filters in post-production. Carefully think out your workflow from beginning to end. The sum total of your hardware, software and workflow has to be looked at as a system with thousand of different variables. Take the time up front to make sure each element and sequence is working seamlessly with the others. "Once you get it to work, don't mess with it," cautions Cable. Shoot in Raw and batch color correct in Adobe Bridge using custom Auto Settings. This is a huge timesaver for David Jay. Always save Photoshop files with layers intact. Esposito notes that layer masks and layer adjustments could save significant time in the event that you need to go back to an image to make additional corrections. Learn and use the keyboard shortcuts for your typical operations in Photoshop and other tools. Every mouse movement takes extra time, and those extra seconds will add up, says Esposito. - by Michael Roney for The Wedding Photojournalist Association

Dear brethren,
I hope this report finds you doing well. I thank God for all who are seeking first the kingdom and supporting Tanzania Missions. Your dedication to the task given to us by the Lord is heartwarming and greatly encourages us.
The Lord's church in Kisongo (located at the back of the ACSOP campus) has been abundantly blessed this month and we have enjoyed some significant spiritual growth. With our close proximity to ACSOP we are fortunate to be blessed by:
1. A large number of the student body while they attend ACSOP.
2. The many talented instructors, from all over the world, who teach at ACSOP and in turn, preach and teach at Kisongo.
3. Our well planned, local outreach. The Kisongo congregation is very diligent in seeking out the lost and encouraging the weak. Members are also active in attending conferences, campaigns and seminars – anything that will help them grow.
4. The work and advice provided by the Tanzania Missions missionary team.
We had the privilege of hosting the East Africa gospel meeting August 4-10. This annual meeting rotates countries each year. We had many brethren, and ACSOP graduates, from all over East Africa attend. The meeting was a great blessing! Each day we would enjoy sermons in the morning and then we spent the afternoon doing door-to-door evangelism. This effort resulted in 90 new souls hearing the gospel and 5 being added to the Lord's kingdom. We solicit your prayers as we work hard to follow up and that God will open more doors.
May God continue to bless you where you are laboring for Him.
In Christ,
Ahimidiwe Kimaro
ACSOP, Assistant Director

What is Lorissa's Kitchen?
Driven by a desire to provide real food crafted for a full life, Lorissa's Kitchen makes delicious protein snacks that fit into busy schedules. Lorissa's Kitchen products are made with 100 percent grass-fed beef or chicken raised without antibiotics. All of which are free from added growth hormones, MSG, nitrites, and are gluten free.
Our steak strips and chicken cuts are similar to jerky yet contain higher moisture for a more tender bite. They come in four delicious flavors: Korean Barbeque Beef, Original Beef, Ginger Teriyaki Chicken, and Szechuan Peppercorn Beef. Our grass-fed beef sticks come in three flavors: Original, Smokey Sweet, and Jalapeño.
Who is Lorissa?
Lorissa Link created the Lorissa's Kitchen brand! She's like so many women today, busy juggling a career and a family. No matter how busy her days get, she enjoys the true satisfaction of being there fully for each moment, and real food helps make that happen because it satisfies the body, mind, heart, and soul. When she founded the brand, Lorissa set out to create delicious, healthy snacks she could take anywhere and keep her family well nourished, without sacrificing the quality and responsible ingredients she cares about.
What is the Lorissa's Kitchen story?
The story begins in the kitchen and around the table, where families bond over sharing meals and building traditions. At Lorissa's Kitchen, these bonds are generations in the making.
Lorissa Link is married to Troy Link, and Troy's father is Jack Link, who created his own jerky and other protein snacks using his great-grandfather's recipes. Jack Link's Protein Snacks is the largest meat snack business in the world, and when Lorissa married Troy, the proud legacy of crafting delicious snacks continued.
Lorissa wanted a healthy protein snack to enjoy on the go for both herself, and her kids. Thus, Lorissa's Kitchen. Lorissa brought this new brand to life with clean-ingredient, responsibly raised protein snacks to help everyone stay nourished and satisfied throughout the day.
What makes Lorissa's Kitchen different?
We believe the secret to a full life is feeding an appetite for good. Our busy bodies need nutritious food, our curious minds want to seek out smart choices, and our conscience is committed to things being done right. We have a simple mission: to make wholesome snacking easier, with nourishment that's crafted to fit the pace of your day.
How are Lorissa's Kitchen strips and cuts different than traditional jerky?
Everyone's suffered through tough, stringy traditional jerky. That's not Lorissa's Kitchen. Our premium strips and cuts have a higher moisture content than jerky, giving them a much more tender bite. Slow smoking contributes to the exceptional tenderness and is the foundation for carefully balanced flavor profiles.
Where can I buy Lorissa's Kitchen products?
Lorissa's Kitchen products are nationally available. You can find them at leading retailers such as Target, Walgreens, Kroger, Publix, convenience stores, and online on Amazon.com.
Are there any better-for-you benefits to Lorissa's Kitchen products?

- 100% Grass-Fed Beef
- Chicken Raised without Antibiotics
- No Added Growth Hormones
- No Added MSG

How many calories are in a serving of Lorissa's Kitchen?
Nutritional values vary by flavor for each Lorissa's Kitchen product. There are 80 calories in a single serving (1 oz.) of all flavors of Lorissa's Kitchen strips and cuts. Lorissa's Kitchen's beef sticks (1 oz.) are 130 calories per serving (one stick).
What is grass-fed beef and why is it important?
Grass-fed means the cattle we use have a forage-based diet. It's a practice that's good for both animal well-being and for managing natural resources because grass-fed means animals are grazing freely on open pastures. Grass-fed cattle are more and more common around the globe today. The health benefits of grass-fed beef include more cancer-fighting conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), desirable fatty acids like omega-3s, and nutrients like vitamin D, magnesium, and potassium.
Are any of your products gluten free?
Yes, all Lorissa's Kitchen protein snacks are gluten free.
Your packaging refers to chicken raised without antibiotics. What does this mean?
Lorissa's Kitchen chicken is raised without human or animal antibiotics from day one. This ensures our customers receive the highest quality product possible.
Where are your proteins sourced?
Our poultry is sourced from reputable farms in the U.S., and our grass-fed beef is sourced from both the U.S. and New Zealand. Multiple sources allow us to maintain premium quality and produce enough Lorissa's Kitchen snacks to meet consumer demand.
Where are your products produced?
Lorissa's Kitchen premium protein snacks are made in the USA.
Are any of your products certified organic or non-GMO?

Do you add sodium nitrites, preservatives, hormones or MSG to your products?

I eat like a kid. I like Chef Boyardee, the ravioli. But they have some stuff I've never seen in the real Italian food world. You ever been in a nice Italian restaurant: 'Hi, how are you? Like to start with a nice bottle of Chianti and a couple of Cesar salads to get started and, um, I'm going to have the Beef-a-Roni -- and some Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for the lady.'
You can microwave a Pop Tart. That just blew me away that you could do that. How long does it take to toast a Pop Tart? A minute and a half if you want it dark? People don't have that kind of time? Listen, if you need to zap-fry your Pop Tarts before you head out the door, you might want to loosen up your schedule.
We got so much food in America we're allergic to food. Allergic to food! Hungry people ain't allergic to shit. You think anyone in Rwanda's got a fucking lactose intolerance?!
When I moved out to LA they told me I had to work out. I was like, 'I don't wanna do that.' They gave me this trainer, and the dude was like... 'The most important thing is, you can't eat late at night or you'll get fat.' And I'm like, 'Forget that, you supposed to eat late at night.' He was like, 'No you not.' I'm like, 'Well, why they put a light in the refrigerator?'
I want a black Gummi Bear. You ever see a black Gummi Bear? No, because Gummi Bears are as racist as hell. They come in every color but black. They got orange, yellow, green, invisible -- come on. They must have got somebody on the candy committee like, 'We gave you n*ggers a jelly bean nobody eats. We're not going to take a chance on a Gummi Bear.'
You know how Mexican restaurants always have "border" in the name: Border Grill, Border Cafe. You wouldn't do that to black people: Kunta's Kitchen or Shackles. They don't do it to white people. You don't see the Honkey Grill, the Cracker Barrel…. oh, nevermind.
How did we get to the point where we're paying for bottled water? That must have been some weird marketing meeting over in France. Some French guy's sitting there, like, 'How dumb do I think the Americans are? I bet you we could sell those idiots water.'
When you don't drink, people always need to know why. They're like, 'You don't drink? Why?' This never happens with anything else. 'You don't use mayonnaise? Why? Are you addicted to mayonnaise? Is it OK if I use mayonnaise?'
I know tap water. I grew up drinking it, I did. My mother wouldn't buy anything else. But she tried to make tap water sound delicious. She called it 'city punch.'
How do you feel like a man and order a lemon loaf? I would never get that; even if I wanted one, I'd point to it: 'Get one of these.'
I seen a white lady with yellow teeth today. She looked like a deviled egg.

7 (9) David Wilson and family £725m (£520m)
The record-breaking £2.2 billion takeover of Leicestershire-based property group Wilson Bowdon by rivals Barratt Developments has put more than £700 into the Wilson family coffers.
Former chairman David Wilson - who together with his family owned 33 per cent of the business - welcomed the deal which is the biggest to date in the housebuilding industry. He said it was the best way forward for the business.
There was a bit of a battle for Wilson Bowden in the end, with George Wimpey, and a private equity consortium led by HBOS and Scottish entrepreneur Sir Tom Hunter losing out to Newcastle-based Barratt.
The tie-up has created the biggest home-builder in Britain, worth £4.3 billion and employing 7500 people. Barratt has continued to perform well since the takeover with sales up 47 per cent to £1.03 billion and a land bank up nearly 12 per cent. This was only the second acquisition by Barratt in 25 years.
Of the £700 million Barratt paid to David Wilson and family holdings, £300 million was paid in cash and the rest in shares.
Wilson Bowden is based in Ibstock, Leicestershire and was formed in 1961. Ten years later David Wilson, now 66, joined the business after graduating from what was then Leicester Polytechnic. At that time the company had a turnover of just £1 million.
By 1987 David Wilson was running the company and floated it on the London Stock Exchange. It became among the biggest housebuilding concerns in the country. He is married with four children.

Two Bay Area college football teams are expected to have noteworthy openers next season.
Stanford is close to securing a game in Sydney, Australia against Rice.
As was the case for Cal's 2016 opener in Sydney, the Cardinal and Rice would meet on the final Saturday in August (in this case: the 26th). That's one week before the season begins for 120-something teams.
The matchup is not a done deal: The NCAA and other involved parties must sign off. But the expectation is that the final steps in the lengthy process will receive final approval in the next six or eight weeks.
It would be a Rice home game.
Meanwhile, San Jose State's 2017 season opener against South Florida at CEFCU Stadium gained intrigue Sunday when USF hired Charlie Strong as its head coach.
Strong was dismissed by Texas late last month and quickly scooped up by the Bulls.
The game is also scheduled for Aug. 26. The Spartans are allowed to begin the season one week earlier than most teams because they will play 13 games.
Cal is tentatively scheduled to open play Sept. 2 at North Carolina. The Pac-12 is expected to release the master schedule in January.

U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Robert Bauer instructs Iraqi army soldiers on the proper procedures for engaging a target in Najaf, Iraq, Feb. 11, 2006. Bauer is with Military Transition Team 812, 3rd Battalion, 16th Field Artillery Regiment. DoD photo by Photographer's Mate 2nd Class Katrina Beeler, U.S. Navy. (Released)
Looks like Sgt. Bauer lent his vest to the Iraqi on his right.
UPDATE: Noticed this in Stars & Stripes: Iraqi troops 'saved the day' in attack that hurt ABC newsman Woodruff
"I had a bunch of jundis kicking ass and taking names," [US First Sgt. John] McFarlane said, using the Iraqi word for "private."
"I saw hatches being opened and soldiers pouring out and clearing flanks and returning fire in a disciplined manner," Jason said. "We were getting shot at from four different directions and we were walking around — walking around — because the Iraqis had our backs. I thought we were looking at some show for congressmen. It was that perfect."

text: Deployable Space Systems (DSS) has developed an affordable and ultra-lightweight elastically self-deployable Roll-Out Boom technology that provides affordability and mission-enabling performance features for current and future NASA missions. The Roll-Out Boom technology provides affordability and a significant performance increase in terms of extremely compact stowage volume, ultra-lightweight, broad scalability, high deployed frequency, high deployed strength, reliable/immediate/repeatable controlled deployment, high stiffness during deployment, good thermal/dimensional stability, highly conductive composite materials construction, space environmental survivability, and broad mission applicability. The Roll-Out Boom technology is applicable as an improved direct replacement to competing deployable structures, and is flexible in geometry, length, section, material, and construction to meet the most demanding mission requirements. The Roll-Out Boom is highly applicable as an enabling deployable structure for electric field sensors, antennas, gravity gradient booms, and magnetometer booms, or as a deployable structural platform for solar arrays, sunshades and/or other proprietary payloads. The technology innovation is applicable for practically all NASA and non-NASA missions as a direct replacement for classical state-of-the-practice deployable structure technologies.

This morning I attended a special Remembrance Day Service at my children's school in honour of ANZAC Day tomorrow. It was a lovely service with over 1000 people filling the gym. Our band played beautifully and the School Leaders did a brilliant job of delivering the service. I must admit I had a tear in my eye when my daughter recited the ANZAC Ode.
After the service, parents were chatting about how they would be spending ANZAC Day. There was confusion around if shops and restaurants would be open and if they were, who would apply a Public Holiday surcharge.
Over the years we've seen Public Holiday trading restrictions relaxed and clearly we're a little confused. Luckily, it's now easier than ever for businesses to keep customers up to date and manage this themselves.
If you haven't given much thought to trading hours and assume everyone knows when you're open, consider implementing our quick tips and keep your customers informed.
How To Keep Customers Up To Date:
- Have one person in your business responsible for trading hours and contact info
- Keep a spreadsheet of your actual trading hours, addresses and phone numbers
- Keep a list of all the sites you advertise this information (your website, Google My Business, Facebook, Instagram, etc)
- Start by checking everything is correct and update where necessary
- If you adjust trading hours for Public Holidays, Stocktake, a Cyclone etc, update your listings and use social media to keep customers in the loop
- If you trade on Public Holidays and apply a surcharge, notify customers as early as possible. (No surprises at the register!)
Outdated listings, disconnected phone numbers and being closed when your website says you're open are possibly some of the fastest ways to lose a customer without even serving them. Of course if you're closed you'll lose the sale you might have made had you been open, but poor communication about your trading hours and any surcharges you apply runs the risk of losing customers for good.
You want your customers to have a great experience with your business. Think of Facebook, your website or even Google Business listing as their first point of contact. Make sure it's a good one.
If this article has reminded you to update your listings, or you have another tip to share with our readers, please leave me a comment.

At Above Benchmark, we're passionate about helping our clients deliver exceptional service to improve customer loyalty and increase sales. We believe every business needs a customer service benchmark, so employees know what to work towards.

Maybe You Cannot Travel to the Sun — But Your Name Can. Here is How
The Parker Solar Probe will launch this year on an extraordinary and historic mission to swoop to within four million miles of the surface of the sun — closer than any spacecraft before it — and experience brutal heat and radiation conditions like no spacecraft before it in order to provide new data on solar activity and make critical contributions to our ability to forecast major space-weather events which impact life on Earth…
Maybe You Cannot Travel to the Sun — But Your Name Can. Here is How
…and while you cannot embark as a passenger on this first mission to travel to the sun, your name can: simply submit your first name, last name and e-mail address at no cost to you through the deadline of Friday, April 27, 2018; and it will be included in a memory card which will fly aboard the Parker Solar Probe spacecraft, which will provide humanity with the closest view of a star ever in history.
This mission "is exploring arguably the last and most important region of the solar system to be visited by a spacecraft to finally answer top-priority science goals for over five decades" in order to unlock the mysteries of the corona while simultaneously attempting to protect a society which is increasingly dependent on technology from the threats of space weather.
"One recent study by the National Academy of Sciences estimated that without advance warning a huge solar event could cause two trillion dollars in damage in the US alone, and the eastern seaboard of the US could be without power for a year."
Space is considered the last frontier. Although I would not travel to the sun — the trip itself could get slightly warmer than Florida in the summertime — I would travel to outer space if I had the opportunity as long as I would be able to return to Earth…
…but as I most likely will never have the opportunity, I suppose sending my name to the sun is better than nothing at all…

All of us are urban users and most of us are also bike users, but not all of us use bikes as a form of transport in our day-to-day lives. We have tried to use bikes in our own lives, and I'm sure many of you have done the same, and we have decided to pose the question; why don't we use bikes in our day-to-day lives?
The responses that we have discovered are wide and varied. Think about it! A bike is easy to rob. When it's hot you can't use it to go to work, no one wants to get hot, tired and sweaty on the way in! You can't get your bike into a secure place easily, the office, home, the lift etc. Foldable bikes can help with this but often the folding mechanism is difficult and slow to use. Ultimately, many of us don't have the balance or feel secure enough to cycle safely amongst the traffic found in our cities; many users want this stability and sense of safety.
We love bikes, as vehicles they are environmentally friendly and emission free, quite cheap to maintain with no high maintenance costs, no insurance or drivers license is needed and in addition you can use them on various road types: cycle paths, conventional roads and pavements too (providing you're careful!)
It is due to the above that the Urban M team has made it their goal to create the ideal vehicle for urban users of the city, including in this advanced concepts for the new Smart Cities.
The principal characteristics of the Urban M bike – the bike of the 21st Century are:
The Urban M bike is intelligent, as it incorporates a small computer with sensors, which allow us to use a series of functions such as the anti – theft system or the intelligent paths and routes functions.
The anti-theft system will send notifications to the users mobile if anybody moves or touches the bike whilst it is parked up. In the case of the robbery of the bike, this function allows us to stop, track and block the motor in real time through the users phone or the website.
The intelligent paths and routes option allows the user to have various profiles set up such as shortest route, easiest route, fastest route, route with the best air quality, route with the lowest temperature or the most efficient route taking into consideration all of the variables. The Urban M bike includes data sensors and intelligent control for optimal cycling and of course, it is connected to all of the common social networks.
Electric and foldable. It has an electrically assisted motor, which allows the user to cycle without too much effort and regulate the amount of exercise they complete. For example, the ability to get to work without tiring or getting sweaty. The folding system is quick and easy, in just 3 seconds it is folded using one simple movement. When folded the bicycle turns into a trolley allowing transport without the user bearing any weight. You can take it with you in the lift, house or into work without any difficulty.
It has 2 front wheels to allow for easy balance. This improves the stability and safety of the vehicle allowing for an overall improved user experience. The 2 front wheels make cycling around the city fun allowing you to take your child, rucksack, laptop or packages with you.
Urban M is yours! We personalise it to meet with your needs and requirements. The simple configuration system found on our website will help you to find the perfect model for you.
Urban M uses an e-distribution system, with personalised customer service and attention to detail; we provide a 2-year guarantee with standard repairs, replacements and accessories. We manufacture and sell Urban M directly to the end user allowing us to offer competitive pricing strategies.
When a cyclists uses an Urban M bike, they are not only helping to support the environment by lowering traffic jams and pollution but they are also helping their local community thanks to the data generated and collected by their Urban M bike as they cycle. The sensors allow for example, the detection and correction of areas of high traffic or noise pollution or any other environmental abnormality, which is recorded and used in real time. Users also help themselves, by doing exercise, and why not do your exercise with an exclusive urban touch, using an Urban M bike.
