Case Study: Cryptic and Ludometrics
In 2010 Cryptic identified a need to better communicate with their current audiences by embracing mobile technology. By undertaking audience profiling with Culture Sparks and a technology audit with Call-2-Action, in 2008/09 through AmbITion Scotland, Cryptic created an e-business strategy in which it was suggested that an App for iPhone might be a solution suited to the audience demographic of Cryptic, in addition to implementing other ebusiness developments that would enable the company to build better digital data profiles of and relationships via digital channels with customers. Cryptic's digital objectives were to: • • • • • • interact with audiences in an exciting new way; make it easier for audiences to access information; provide and deepen the 'Cryptic Experience' for audiences; reward customer loyalty; communicate uniquely with early adopters; fulfill their mission statement to be at the forefront of arts marketing and to be leaders in their field using technology in the arts; and • inspire arts industry practitioners to embrace digital mobile marketing.
Having built their own confidence around communicating what their digital needs were, Cryptic reviewed their own team and realised that they did not have the digital capacity or capability in house to implement their ebusiness strategy. In order to develop this area, they were going to have to source skills and competencies from outside.

How did a partnership with a digital company develop?
Cryptic's Artistic Director, Cathie Boyd was introduced to David Thomson Founder of Ludometrics in 2010, by Cryptic's then Chair. During this first meeting it became evident that Ludometrics would be the perfect technology partner for this project because: • • both companies shared a similar ethos for developing the innovative use of technology; and this would be an excellent opportunity for Ludometrics, to creatively experiment with technology, giving David the freedom to explore new ways of working. Ludometrics would: • gain experience in, and demonstrate to the wider market, the company's ability to design and launch an iPhone App within the creative industries; and • participate in the local community. One of Ludometrics' core values is "Be Responsible". With this project Ludometrics could give something back to the wider community by contributing skills and expertise to a local arts charity. Together, Cryptic and Ludometrics built and launched the iPhone App. The partnership and project was so successful that, in 2011 Cryptic and Ludometrics were awarded the Arts and Business Scotland Award for Sponsorship by a Small Business, both companies greatly benefited from the profile and networking opportunities that this award provided. Other benefits of working in partnership with Cryptic for Ludometrics:
• Reputational. As a young company which was set up in 2010, a partnership with Cryptic provided the
perfect opportunity to increase profile and introduce the company's work to new markets with the hope of
Page 2
securing new clients. The partnership directly led to the company securing work with The Comedy Unit; • Working exemplars. The Cryptic partnership project provided the company with demonstrable evidence of its ability to create iPhone Apps and this has directly led to an increased client base; and • Enhanced profile. The company has been invited to speak at several events UK wide such as Digital 2011 in Glasgow and for the DTI in London: which demonstrates the company's expertise in the creation of digital applications that successfully adapt "offline" content to new platforms. This reputation has without doubt been strengthened by the partnership with Cryptic.
Benefits to Cryptic of working in partnership with Ludometrics: • A launched iPhone app. The partnership with Ludometrics was central to the successful launch of Cryptic's iPhone app. Not only did Ludometrics create the software for the app but they were also creatively involved in its development and content. • A continued reputation of being at the forefront of new technology use in the arts. Without this partnership with Ludometrics, the company would not have been able to deliver a product which has strengthened audience relationships and kept the company at the forefront of using new technologies.

An ongoing, current partnership
The relationship with Ludometrics did not end when the product development did. Following the successful launch of the iPhone app in 2010, Cryptic has continued to work with Ludometrics to explore the potential of future technological development. When Cryptic became involved in the FST's Digital Action Research Group in 2011, the main objective was to develop the app further into Android and other mobile platforms. Because of the strong relationship Cryptic had built with Ludometrics over the previous year it felt natural to bring David Thomson on board as a technical advisor and partner.
Further Developments
In 2011, following research carried out by Ludometrics, and consultation with Rudman Consulting (facilitators of the Digital Action Research Group), it became apparent that further app development may not be the right direction for the partnership. This was due to many factors: app technology had moved on; a plateau had been reached in the Cryptic app downloads; and cost of developing the app onto new mobile platforms was prohibitive. In order to find 'the best development path', Cryptic held a brainstorming session with David Thomson, led by Rudman Consulting. The brainstorming session guided the group through the construction of a Business Model Canvas. (Osterwalder & Pigneur, Business Model Generation, 2010.) Through describing Cryptic's business via the methodology the canvas encourages, it became clear that Cryptic had developed good digital assets (there is exploitable IP in the methodologies and products developed); strong relationships with key delivery partners (Ludometrics); had succeeded in building digital resources; and had new understanding of how to produce digital content and through it build audiences digitally. Cryptic's objectives for audience engagement had not changed, but technological developments had diversified Cryptic's offer and the methods in which Cryptic relates to audiences. Technology developments since 2009 also expanded the options (channels to market) of how customer segments could be reached. Through the brainstorm, the group developed a new idea: Cryptic's Digital Stage - a web space that is artist generated and Cryptic curated. Cryptic and Ludometrics are currently working on developing this idea further, thanks to Ludometrics' ongoing sharing of their technological knowledge and creativity. The aim of this project is to: • develop and launch a regularly changing artist generated website, built in html5, so that it is multiplatform; • • engage, stimulate and grow Cryptic's audiences through new interactive content; give audiences an opportunity to experience art in a new way;
Page 4
facilitate cross over skills of both web developers and artists through collaborative working; and
ultimately explore a new business model for online communication.
Top tips for partnership working
• A shared ethos - although both businesses might want to achieve different objectives for their own business it is important that the companies share a similar ethos and vision. • A clearly defined relationship and expectations – Make sure the relationship/responsibilities and expectations of each partner are outlined from the start, for a successful partnership there needs to be mutual satisfaction, so be explicit with each other about what are individual objectives. • A joint approach to artistic and creative content – it is important to remain open to new ideas: a technology partner will definitely bring something to the table which you hadn't thought of. Joint ownership of the idea is also important, to achieve 'buy in' from the technology partner – so they feel they aren't just providing a service. This can be achieved through a contract outlining how the IP and any revenue is shared. • Be open and honest about each other's ideas – for Cryptic, it was important that we trusted David's honesty. If we have an uninspiring, impossible or prohibitively expensive idea we want David to tell us, so we can move on and think of something better! • Communication and a sense of involvement - As a small company David appreciates the opportunity to become involved with a slightly larger organisation, and because he feels part of the organisation, we feel we can ask his advice about other technology issues (not just about the app). David regularly attends Cryptic performances and events, increasing his creative network. On a lighter note, remember to make the partnership fun! The technology partner should feel like part of your team, whether that means inviting them to your social functions or buying them the odd cake. • Give the technology partner freedom - Often technology companies are provided with 'briefs' from a cultural organisation, where they have to follow exactly what the client requires. This is appropriate in instances where the desired outcome is clearly already defined. When the outcome is not as clear, or undefined, then the technology partner needs the space and freedom to have creative input. Working with Cryptic in this environment gave Ludometrics more scope for creative output, challenging David and thus making the project more rewarding. • Review and Evaluate – either formally or informally, it is always important to take stock of how your partnership is developing. This allows for new ideas to come to the fore and also –provides an
Page 5
opportunity to vent any niggles. Successful projects set dates for achieving results and review these on a regular basis. • Be realistic about your time scales/limits – Cryptic's partnership with Ludometrics is ongoing, but it is imperative to be honest if either partner feels like the partnership is coming to a natural close. There is nothing worse than being in a partnership arrangement that has outlived its usefulness. And from the technology partner's point of view… • Listen - Pay attention to what the company is trying to achieve. They may have a particular idea in their head, but you may know a better way to achieve the same end result via a different route. • Options - Arts companies are used to running projects on a budget; don't be afraid to offer options to help them figure out what they can achieve. • Learn - You will learn a lot from working with an arts company. Stay open minded and you will find new ideas to apply to your own business. • Teach - It's up to you to present the best technology approach and explain why that's the best. You will be questioned. Far more so than you might expect.

Insurance & Services for Small Business
With 700 miles of beaches, an endless bounty of sun and sea, Florida's history dates back to the early 16th century, when Spanish explorer Ponce de Leon was searching for the elusive fountain of youth. Not long after, the oldest city in the United States - St. Augustine - was established in Northeast Florida.
Travelers driving south from St. Augustine today would have to put nearly 500 miles on the odometer before reaching the Sunshine State's southern most point in Key West. In between, they would pass through some of the most iconic vacation cities in the world, including Daytona Beach, Palm Beach, Fort Lauderdale, and Miami.
From Pensacola on the western panhandle to the gateway of the southwest in Fort Meyers, Florida covers a lot of territory. The state has long been associated with agriculture and tourism. Today the modern economy consists of industries such as construction, banking, biomedicine, healthcare research, and aerospace and defense. At least sixteen Fortune 500 companies call the Sunshine State home, including Publix Super Markets, AutoNation, CSX, Winn-Dixie Stores, and Fidelity National Financial.
Both employers and employees have much to benefit from Florida's Workers' Compensation Act, which passed in 1935. At that time, Florida was waging a campaign to attract northern companies. According to Lloyd Harger of the Florida Division of Workers' Compensation: "A "workmen's" compensation law was necessary to meet the demands and requirements of the increased and industrial employment in the state and as an inducement and invitation to other industries to move to and operate in Florida…. Lawsuits were on the rise and workers demanded protection."1
The result was the New Act, which created the Florida Industrial Commission to administer workers' compensation laws. Florida's Workers' Compensation Act has undergone several major overhauls over the years. While some of the rules have changed, Florida still requires most employers of four or more part-time or full-time workers to obtain workers' compensation insurance from a state-licensed insurance agent. Some of the small businesses purchasing workers' compensation insurance in Florida are auto repair shops, restaurants, hotels, printers, hardware stores, furniture and clothing manufactures, and colleges.
EMPLOYERS is America's Workers' Comp Specialist® and it has a strong presence in Florida, providing small businesses from Orlando to Tallahassee with workers' compensation insurance that is right for their business. The value added services that EMPLOYERS offer our policyholders such as loss control services, PrecisePay®, Anti-Fraud Programs, Managed Care Services, and Premium Audit, make EMPLOYERS the right choice for Florida based businesses.

I would call this term "Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)" Instead of "Fluorescent in situ hybridization" —Preceding unsigned comment added by E.osimo (talk • contribs) 14:16, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Lab-on-a-chip and FISH[edit]
This section make it seem as though the lab-on-a-chip FISH method has no drawbacks. This is certainly not the case. I am not enough of an expert to be comfortable making these changes myself, but I have flagged the section for NPOV until drawbacks are discussed. Not that the technology is not a step forward, however without any mention of drawbacks the reader would otherwise get an overly positive and unbalanced read. --C4 Diesel (talk) 13:23, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
im with you on this. smells as if its been written with a specific agenda in mind. Reading up, will return to complete the section properly
S —Preceding unsigned comment added by 18.104.22.168 (talk) 08:26, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
I agree with the above comments. It appers to me the author(s) of this section (lab-on-a-chip FISH) have something to sell rather than a scientific discription. Was the photo of the chip contributed by the author(s) of this section? Sounds "fishy". What about the high costs of making these chips. From a manufacturing standpoint, the fact that these lab-on-a-chips are fabricated from glass suggests costs that run into hundreds of dollars for a single test.
I agree with all of the above comments. My recommendation is that all of the "lab on a chip" section should belong on it's own page, not on the FISH page. The FISH page should contain links to all the other related techniques including brightfield ISH, RNA ISH, Lab on a chip, etc.
Siavash ghaffari (talk) 17:47, 16 March 2012 (UTC) Why is this section still here? We all agree this is advertisment placement, and it has nothing to do with the general overview with FISH. I see this discussion has been going on for over almost a year and nothing has been done. This section should be removed!
I removed the section and replaced it with a two sentence description and new references. Mllyjn (talk) 23:45, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
Your reaction is quite excessive. I'm no specialist, but I've heard about FISH being performed in plastic chips (which are cheap, but well, glass chip are expensive but can be re-used), and I don't really see your point. Being able to perform FISH in microfluidic platform is indeed interesting since it open up new targets, like CTCs for instance. If you're not satisfied with the single reference "ad", just delete it, or add some others references. You don't have to delete every line about new improvements of the technique. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 22.214.171.124 (talk) 21:03, 21 April 2013 (UTC)
I remember hearing about STAR-FISH (Substrate-tracking autoradiography-fluorescent in situ hybridization) but can't remember anything about it. Do you reckon that ought to be mentioned here? Abergabe (talk) 14:14, 31 August 2010 (UTC)

It might not be paved with gold, but Salamanca's most famous strip isn't called the "Milla de Oro" for nothing.

Competition For Young Artists
Artproof hereby announces the young artist competition Artproof Grant Finland 2017, which is being awarded for the second time in Finland. The winner of the competition will receive a grant valued at €5000 for the production of works in Artproof.
For the first time Artproof grant competition is open for young artists from all different fields. This means that printmakers, painters, photographers and new-media artists are welcome to send their project.
The grant includes the compilation of works for exhibition with professional printing services and, set-up and transport services for the exhibition itself.
A public exhibition with the winner's works will take place in Art Fair Suomi event in May 2017, in Cable Factory, Helsinki. The aim of the exhibition is to showcase and promote the work of the young artist, the winner of Artproof Grant Finland 2017.
The competition is organised in co-operation with Photographic Artists' Association and Muu Artist Association.
For more info, click Grant Finland link on the left of the screen.
"Sigrid Viir 'Hans55′ detail of photo installation"
In 2016 Artproof improved their grant format and offered Temnikova & Kasela gallery an opportunity to select a project that will be supported and carried out as part of "Artproof Grant Estonia 2016″.
The scholarship is worth 5,000 euros and the funds cover the production of Sigrid Viir's and Jimmy Limit's new works for the exhibition "Import Export" at Temnikova & Kasela gallery. Artproof Estonian scholarship is organised in collaboration with Hahnemühle.
Olga Temnikova from Temnikova & Kasela Gallery said: "Sigrid Viir and Canadian Estonian Jimmy Limit collaboration is high-quality, ambitious, international and based on photo medium, that perfectly fits with the conceptual profile of Artproof. I am very happy that we have Artproof, who understands the project and can carrie out/manage the production creatively and professionally."
Sigrid Viir's and Jimmy Limit's exhibition "Import Export" talks about import and export in a general commercial sense, alluding to the transportation of art works and artists from one continent to another, customs procedures, and the mass migration of people and files. The title of the exhibition also refers to photography, the widespread use and distribution of photographs, and digital importing and exporting.
Estonian artist Sigrid Viir's artistic practice often deals with photography, and installation as a sculptural form. Here, she exhibits a photographic installation using as her material a photo of Surma people in Ethiopia found on the Internet, Polish apples bought in a store, and loosely arranged snow. The visual narrative of the exhibition, which leans towards the fantastical while concerned with current political issues, focuses on the idea of the exotic in the context of import and export, of photography as a transformer of reality, and of the relationship between market and demand.
Jimmy Limit, a photographer and author of playful installations, is a Canadian-born artist with Estonian roots. In his art practice, Limit is interested in the immaterial everyday consumption of images and its consequences. When taking photos, his aim is to free the objects from their original function and conjure up new absurd forms that lack a specific purpose.

Rear drivers side door will not unlock, unable to pull the lock pin up by hand? All other locks work with remote and power door lock button.
3 Answers
The door lock mechanism is probably broken. Its the piece that latches so the door wont open (Inside your door hanging out with your window) .Had the same problem and thought it might of been the "fuse" box behind the door panel. You can probably get one from a junkyard. Would probably take about an 1 or less depending on your knowledge of the car.
Thanks...any ideas on how to get the door open to check the lock mechanism? The door is locked and will not open.
you may have to take off the door handle cover from the inside and see if you can pull the metal rods so it can either unlock the door or open it.unless you have an extra door panel then you can scrap that one

Most Public Advocate Candidates Not Sweating Mark Green
Mark Green is getting a surprisingly friendly reception to the Public Advocate's race. The current PA, Betsy Gotbaum, who will not compete in this year's race, responds, "It doesn't surprise me that the field of strong candidates for the Public Advocate's race continues to grow. I believe that is a sign of how extremely important the office is for New Yorkers."
Politicker NY rounds up other advocate wannabes' reactions. Declared candidate Bill DiBlasio says, "I have known Mark Green for many years and have a great deal of respect for him. I look forward to an engaging debate with all of the candidates..." "I wish Mark the best of luck, but it doesn't change my plan," says Norman Siegel. Jessica Lapin is still thinking of getting in. John Liu "gave a small smile and nodded his head ever so slightly."
Staten Island Republican contender Alex Zablocki gives Green a lengthy brushoff. As Public Advocate Green "often forgot the 'forgotten borough,'" Zablocki says, and has "removed himself over the past eight years from helping out the New Yorkers like myself" to enrich himself as "a writer, political commentator and head of a liberal radio network."
Adam Clayton Powell IV, on the other hand, is getting scared off. Describing Green as an "500-pound gorilla," Powell tells Liz Benjamin, "I don't think Mark Green can be beaten in the current field... I'm not going to waste my time."

"This blog is like a fusion of the Baroque 'salon' with its well-tuned harpsichord around which polite society gathered for entertainment and edification and, on the other hand, a Wild West "saloon" with its out-of-tune piano and swinging doors, where everyone has a gun and something to say. Nevertheless, we try to point our discussions back to what it is to be Catholic in this increasingly difficult age, to love God, and how to get to heaven." – Fr. Z
Some words of wisdom…
The more vigorously the primacy was displayed, the more the question came up about the extent and and limits of [papal] authority, which of course, as such, had never been considered. After the Second Vatican Council, the impression arose that the pope really could do anything in liturgical matters, especially if he were acting on the mandate of an ecumenical council. Eventually, the idea of the givenness of the liturgy, the fact that one cannot do with it what one will, faded from the public consciousness of the West. In fact, the First Vatican Council had in no way defined the pope as an absolute monarch. On the contrary, it presented him as the guarantor of obedience to the revealed Word. The pope's authority is bound to the Tradition of faith. … The authority of the pope is not unlimited; it is at the service of Sacred Tradition.

"We as Catholics have not properly combated (the culture) because we have not been taught our Catholic Faith, especially in the depth needed to address these grave evils of our time. This is a failure of catechesis both of children and young people that has been going on for fifty years. It is being addressed, but it needs much more radical attention... What has also contributed greatly to the situation is an exaltation of the virtue of tolerance which is falsely seen as the virtue which governs all other virtues. In other words, we should tolerate other people in their immoral actions to the extent that we seem also to accept the moral wrong. Tolerance is a virtue, but it is certainly not the principal virtue; the principal virtue is charity... Charity means speaking the truth. I have encountered it (not speaking the truth) many times myself as a priest and bishop. It is something we simply need to address. There is far too much silence — people do not want to talk about it because the topic is not 'politically correct.' But we cannot be silent any longer."

"Where priest and people together face the same way, what we have is a cosmic orientation and also in interpretation of the Eucharist in terms of resurrection and trinitarian theology. Hence it is also an interpretation in terms of parousia, a theology of hope, in which every Mass is an approach to the return of Christ."
Joseph Ratzinger - The Feast of Faith"In those situations where homosexual unions have been legally recognized or have been given the legal status and rights belonging to marriage, clear and emphatic opposition is a duty. ... If all Catholics are obliged to oppose the legal recognition of homosexual unions, Catholic politicians are obliged to do so in a particular way, in keeping with their responsibility as politicians." CDF 2003
One of the most dangerous errors is that civilization is automatically bound to increase and spread. The lesson of history is the opposite; civilization is a rarity, attained with difficulty and easily lost. The normal state of humanity is barbarism, just as the normal surface of the planet is salt water. Land looms large in our imagination and civilization in history books, only because sea and savagery are to us less interesting. — C. S. Lewis

For contemplation…
"One of the few things in life you can be absolutely sure about is that, if Management tells you it doesn't like your Tone, you are getting something right."
"Latin is a precise, essential language. It will be abandoned, not because it is unsuitable for the new requirements of progress, but because the new men will not be suitable for it. When the age of demagogues and charlatans begins, a language like Latin will no longer be useful, and any oaf will be able to give a speech in public and talk in such a way that he will not be kicked off the stage. The secret to this will consist in the fact that, by making use of words that are general, elusive, and sound good, he will be able to speak for an hour without saying anything. With Latin, this is impossible."
- - Giovanni Guareschi

Grant unto thy Church, we beseech Thee, O merciful God, that She, being gathered together by the Holy Ghost, may be in no wise troubled by attack from her foes. O God, who by sin art offended and by penance pacified, mercifully regard the prayers of Thy people making supplication unto Thee,and turn away the scourges of Thine anger which we deserve for our sins. Almighty and Everlasting God, in whose Hand are the power and the government of every realm: look down upon and help the Christian people that the heathen nations who trust in the fierceness of their own might may be crushed by the power of thine Arm. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. R. Amen.

Food For Thought
"The legalization of the termination of pregnancy is none other than the authorization given to an adult, with the approval of an established law, to take the lives of children yet unborn and thus incapable of defending themselves. It is difficult to imagine a more unjust situation, and it is very difficult to speak of obsession in a matter such as this, where we are dealing with a fundamental imperative of every good conscience — the defense of the right to life of an innocent and defenseless human being."

God You Can Know by Dan DeHaan
Book DescriptionQuestions concerning various topics such as knowing God's will, assurance of salvation, home life, and even dating relationships result from a lack in comprehending the Person of God the Father.

Boom trucks are a carrier truck with a telescopic boom over its frame. When the operator needs to use the boom arm, it can be controlled with hand levers on the ground level of the truck or in the cab of the truck. The boom arm swivels at its base, and the arm itself can extend outward, much like some types of cranes. The main function of a boom truck is to move where its telescopic unit will be used: building, posts, electric cables, iron, etc. These cranes should be rented with an operator.
available lift weights
Carry-deck cranes are smaller units designed for both indoor and outdoor work. Also known as industrial cranes, the machines have capacities ranging from 8 tons to 15 tons. They feature telescopic arms and can operate in restricted spaces.
available lift weights
The crucial benefit of the crawler crane is that it is very mobile and requires minimal assembly. It is stable without needing accessory support. It can be effectively used on soft terrains with minimal problem because of its well-distributed mass. More so, it can be used for work on uncleared site with little or no problem. Heavy crane weight and expensive cost of transportation from place to place are its major shortcomings; to transport it, it has to be dismembered and loaded onto another vehicle. Renting the crane requires the services of a crane technician.
