Friday Morning News
The Wall Street Journal is reporting Apple will soon be offering its own scripted TV shows. The paywalled article claims that both "veteran producers" and "experienced marketing executives" will be looking to create and promote these shows, but with the likes of Netflix and HBO already producing great in-house content, will it be enough?
Along a similar vein, Variety has more information on how Apple's Carpool Karaoke will work. Featuring a different host every episode, the series will be more like an interview series than strictly karaoke, with non-musical stars also appearing on the show as well as non-traditional pairings of artists.
After completing a second round of testing with the bugs ironed out of their testing suite, Consumer Reports now recommends the new MacBook Pros with (and without) Touch Bar. Consumer Reports claims Apple has fixed the bugs in the latest beta of macOS, with all laptops posting impressive battery life numbers of over 15 hours.
Over at Macworld, Kirk McElhearn says it's time for Apple to give up its pursuit of thinness for a bigger battery. If Apple sacrificed a little of its desire to make laptops as thin and light as possible, then we'd be able to have the all-day battery life enjoyed by iPads. Who are the people asking for these super thin and super light laptops, anyway?
The original Astropad iPad app was designed to let you interact with Mac apps using your iPad. Now, the newly-released AstroPad Studio wants to bring even more customisability to the process, enabling custom two-handed gestures that work with the Apple Pencil. AstroPad Studio is free for a 7-day trial period, but otherwise you'll need to subscribe, billed either monthly or annually.
A Mac Pro concept design doesn't take into account the practicalities of PCIe lanes or processor architectures, but hey, it looks pretty good. If Apple ever made a return to standard components, then I'd want them to do it in a similar fashion, and they'd even be able to keep their fantastically futuristic cooling tower/trash can-like design.
A former Apple engineer has answered a question on Quora about working on the iPhone project. Terry Lambert wrote about 6% of the Mac OS X kernel, which is now the same kernel that runs on iOS devices, but his post focuses on aspects of the famed Apple secrecy, even within its own walls.
Somewhere along the way I've missed some of the previous beta releases of iOS 10.2.1, so we're now up to the fourth beta which has now been released to developers and members of Apple's public beta testing program. The fourth beta of macOS 10.12.3 has also been released to the same.
Elago's W3 Stand for all Apple Watch models supports Night Stand mode, but best of all, it makes your Apple Watch look like a mini Mac Plus.
Following a rejection from the App Store over a year ago, The Binding of Isaac: Rebith has now been accepted onto the App Store. Touch Arcade has the review, if you're looking for a dungeon-based adventure game with a tonne of secrets to find, then it might just be what you're looking for.

Threaded metal inserts have been made since the early 90s that are used in a multiple range of products and industries. Metal inserts have been used by automotive, aerospace, furniture design, military and medical applications. The first thing to know about metal inserts application is to determine the appropriate size production and the size of the hole that the insert is going into. Next would be to twist the insert into the drill head which will be used to install the insert into the desired location of the part you are using. The way it works is because of the double thread on the insert where the inside thread is twisted on the drill and the outside thread into the hole that is found on the part that is being used. First you drill forward until insert is all the way inside the hold and is secured by the part, then you drill backwards to release the insert from the drill.
Those applications allow inserts to be installed at flush or below surface application, they can be applied to wood, foam or plastic products. There are all types of aviation fasteners used to day from especially automotive fasteners and Aviation fasteners. Fasteners Distributors has become a big industry as the request or the need for them has increased. Annual forums show how the supply and demand curve is increasing every year and that is why it's such a lucrative industry. Technifast has broaden its manufacturing capabilities to produce a wider range of inserts for various applications including a broad range of self-tapping fasteners. This wide range stretches to self-cutting threaded inserts, blind self-tapping inserts and through-tapped metric OD inserts, which can manufactured according to the design and specifications of the customer by simply providing design drawings and specifications.
ASAP Semiconductor made an effort to be a global distributor and include inserts and fasteners to be part of what we supply. ASAP Semiconductor has created a platform where we deal with automotive fasteners and Aviation fasteners manufacturers, we deal with Computer hardware parts at ASAP Sourcing Solutions. If you are looking for parts submit a request at asap-sourcingsolutions.com with your part number and description of part. You can also send a request by email at firstname.lastname@example.com. You can also speak with a sales representative at +1-412-212-0606.

Nevertheless, George Town retained its significance as a vital British entrepôt.[38][39] The booming spice trade experienced led into the opening of spice farms throughout Penang Island, link producing the island a centre of spice creation in Southeast Asia; the export of spices also allowed the British East India Business to include the administrative prices of Penang.[forty][41] Aside from funnelling the exports meant for international shipping strains which experienced bypassed other regional ports, the tin mining increase in neighbouring Perak in the direction of the end of the nineteenth century remodeled the Port of Penang into a major tin-exporting harbour in the Malay Peninsula, directly hard the Port of Singapore.
Until 2001, the pre-war properties in the historic centre of George Town was shielded from city improvement because of the Hire Handle Act, which prohibited landlords from arbitrarily increasing rentals as a measure to supply inexpensive housing on the weak.[89] Its eventual repeal visibly altered Penang's demographic pattern and financial exercise; overnight appreciation of real estate property charges pressured tenants of here many generations out in their heritage houses to the city's outskirts, in which new townships ended up remaining developed.
Befitting George Town's position as a major Malaysian city with several multi-countrywide economic and social passions, quite here a few nations have both set up their consulates or appointed honorary-consulates within just George City.

Basic Beginners Course & follow-up apiary visit for attendees on Tuesday 5 April starting 6.00pm at Stinsford.
The Course has now finished and has been very successful. Most of the attendees will be continuing on a practical basis and the first apiary meeting is at Stinsford on Tuesday 5th April 6.00pm. From Tuesday 19 April all members will be welcome to attend, although the emphasis will be on helping new beekeepers.
Basic Assessment:
If any member is interested in taking the Basic and would like more information please contact either Terry Payne (firstname.lastname@example.com) or Lesley Gasson (email@example.com). Both Terry and Lesley will also help with a mock assessment for the Basic as this will help give confidence and the knowledge of what you need to do to pass it.
- Suppliers: Our County Secretary has been sent information by a new supplier. It is Old Castle Farm Hives and his website is www.oldcastlefarm.com. He is based in Swansea so is not local but apparently offers a courier service. I have also received an email from Connor Jones from Donegal Bees, Ireland. He says 'Our entire product range is available online at www.donegalbees.co.uk and we can accept orders online, by email or over the phone'. There is a more local supplier, Peter Wells at Maiden Newton. 01300 320660. He sells most of his equipment through Ebay but collection may be possible for Dorset members.

- Two of our members have contacted me about having bees to sell. Jon Diggens at Piddlehinton (01300 348189) has got some nucs available and Richard Norman (01305 786585) has some small colonies to move on.
- Swarm List: on the basis that it is never too early to think about swarms the list below gives the names and contact details of our swarm collectors.
Chris Donaghy 01305 852317 ; Ruth Homer 01308 482483; Richard Norman 01305 786585;
Andy Ranson 01305 770730; Chris Slade 01300 320777; Marc Watton 01929 406117
Now that our Beginners Course has finished and we are planning to start the follow-up apiary visits, it at last feels as if we are getting into the start of the practical season. The apiary site is at Stinsford and will be weekly on a Tuesday starting at 6.00p.m. As already mentioned, from Tuesday 19th April we would welcome members to attend, even if it is only to stand and talk to the beginners.
We had a very successful last 'get-together' at The Hive Café in Weymouth. Thank you to Simon & Rachel Gregory who run the Cafe and who have agreed we can use it again. The location is perfect for a Weymouth venue as it is central and opposite a car park. Our next meeting is at The Colliton Club which is a change of venue but may turn out to be worth using, particularly at it is so near to parking.
The clocks have now gone forward, a true sign we are into Spring. Hopefully the weather will turn more spring-like. If the weather does improve, we could expect some early swarms, so we need to be ready for them which brings me on to our next event, the Auction. You may well pick up some bargains so hopefully see some of you there.
A word of advice, don't be in too much of a hurry to remove mouseguards. I removed some a week ago when we had a really fine day but subsequently it seems mice have been in the hive, chewing the comb.
Finally, it is with much sadness that we learnt one of our ex-members, Jenny Eddison (Smith), passed away earlier this week at Joseph Weld Hospice. Jenny had been a member for some years, served on the Committee and was the Branch Secretary for two years. As an Association we owe her a huge debt of gratitude as she allowed us to use her apiary site to start the Beginners Meetings. She was exceedingly good-natured about letting us pull apart her hives and colonies every fortnight. In fact, if she hadn't given us this headstart I doubt whether the Beginners Meetings would have progressed, certainly not to the point where are now. Unfortunately, Jenny had to give up beekeeping a couple of years ago due to her illness but she did keep in touch and she will be sorely missed.

Pretoria - The Southern African Development Community (SADC) guidelines and reforms aimed at bringing peace and stability to Lesotho will be implemented at all costs, Lesotho Prime Minister Tom Thabane said on Friday.
Mobbed by reporters at the end of the double troika summit of the SADC heads of state and government in Pretoria late on Friday, Thabane initially refused to take questions, but as journalists persisted he said he had asked the SADC to assist his nation.
"It's SADC, and I came to SADC because I knew that SADC is SADC. My confidence as a member of SADC is in the total leadership of SADC [that] together they make the right decisions," Thabane responded to numerous questions from journalists as he walked on the red carpet.
On implementing the SADC prescribed reforms, Thabane said: "Yes of course, I'm a reformist by nature. The way forward, [we are] going for reforms and having peace in Lesotho".
Earlier, it was announced at the Pretoria summit that the regional bloc was sending a contingent force which would include military and intelligence components to Lesotho.
"[The] Summit approved the deployment of a contingent force comprising [of] military, security, intelligence, and civilian experts to support the government of the Kingdom of Lesotho and directed the chiefs of defence and security to assess the requirements to determine the appropriate size of the contingent force, and to prepare the modalities for the deployment," SADC executive secretary Stergomena Lawrence Tax said at the end of the summit.
She said the summit had "strongly condemned" the assassination of Lesotho Defence Force commander Lt-Gen Khoantle Motsomotso earlier this month, prompting the SADC meeting to contain the degenerating situation in Maseru.
"The right honourable Motsoahae Thomas Thabane, prime minister of the Kingdom of Lesotho, was also invited. The double troika summit was also attended by SADC facilitator to Lesotho, Deputy President of South Africa Cyril Ramaphosa," said Tax.

The Gift Will Fund Law-Related Projects Aimed at Helping Consumers in Need
The New York Bar Foundation has received a gift of $20,000 from the Business Law Section of the New York State Bar Association to provide grants to nonprofit organizations for programs that assist consumers facing financial hardship due to actual or potential foreclosures on their homes, personal bankruptcy, and related matters. The Business Law Section Fund will provide grant awards to nonprofit organizations in New York.
James W. Orband (Hinman Howard & Kattell, LLP, Binghamton), chair of the Business Law Section, said, "The officers and members of the Business Law Section are pleased to make this contribution to The New York Bar Foundation so that funding will be provided for programs assisting struggling consumers facing the difficult prospect of losing their homes or filing for bankruptcy. Consumers have a need to understand their legal rights and we anticipate that programs, funded through this gift, will avail them every opportunity to actively participate in the court process."
John R. Horan, president of The Foundation said, "We are grateful to the Business Law Section for its generous contribution to The New York Bar Foundation. Individuals and families, overwhelmed by mounting financial pressures from foreclosures and consumer debt, frequently do not know where to turn for help. The Foundation anticipates that the nonprofit organizations awarded grants from The Business Law Section Fund will bring much-needed support and legal assistance to those seeking help during this crisis. The section is acting in the finest tradition of the organized bar as we work together to serve New York's legal profession, the justice system and its communities."
Nonprofit organizations in New Yorkare encouraged to apply for funding through The Foundation's grant application process. Grant applications are available online at www.tnybf.org. The next deadline for grant applications is October 15, 2008. Completed applications should be mailed to The New York Bar Foundation, One Elk Street , Albany , NY 12207.
The Business Law Section, with a membership of approximately 4,500, is one of the largest sections of the New York State Bar Association. Its members consist of attorneys whose practice involves some aspect of commerce or finance although the focus of the practice of the members is quite diverse - ranging from securities to consumer finance. To accommodate this breadth of practice, the section is composed of nine committees which offer the practitioner with commercial clients' information in such diverse areas as: Bankruptcy, Banking, Corporations Law, Consumer Finance, Franchise Distribution and Licensing, Derivatives and Structured Products, Insurance, Securities Regulation and the constantly evolving area of Information and Technology Law. The Business Law Section has been in the forefront of introducing, monitoring and evaluating legal developments in the areas of business and finance on both federal and New Yorkstate levels.
According to Horan, The New York Bar Foundation is dedicated to aiding charitable and educational projects to meet the law-related needs of the public and the legal profession. This year, the Foundation has awarded almost $300,000 in 35 grants to fund law-related programs and anticipates awarding additional grants in June. The work of The Foundation is made possible through the contributions of lawyers, law firms, corporations and others. Go to www.tnybf.org to make an online contribution to support the work of The Foundation.
For further information about The New York Bar Foundation, contact Rosanne Van Heertum, director of development, at 518/487-5650 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Love, the leanest startup
Since today is Valentine's Day and so many tech people are single, I thought I'd talk about love. If you're married or looking for a technology article, you can stop reading now.For everyone else, "love" is perhaps the most loaded word in the English language. We define it in magical terms. It carries with it the unreasonable expectations of a lifetime of love songs and a thousand happily ever afters. We expect it to excite us, inspire us, and ultimately complete us. For many, it is the only religion they still believe in, and the last piece of magic in a world where everything is for sale. But all of these things we ascribe to love have elevated it to an unattainable level. Our ideas of love have become as mystical as a unicorn.
Love didn't always look like rainbows and roses. For centuries, people understood that it required work and sacrifice. It was something two people built over time, something that took effort. People accepted that love wasn't easily earned and had to be nurtured. But that version of love isn't good enough anymore. Work on love? Don't be absurd.
Today, we've all adopted the shortcut hacker mentality to finding love. Or worse, we expect it to just show up without trying. People give us horrendous advice such as, "you'll find someone when you stop looking." Right, just like you'll magically become a successful entrepreneur when you stop trying to start a company. That makes no sense at all.
Why do we work so hard on our professional lives, building companies and careers, and devote so little to our personal lives? Is it unimportant? Some would argue that we need a career to survive but we don't need a love life. That may be true in the technical sense but what about what we want? Do we really want to go through life alone? As loudly as we may protest and make claims that we don't need anyone, I suspect we all want someone with whom to share our lives. We might think we can erase our emotional needs with a Spock-like stoicism but unless you're half Vulcan, it's not going to work.
Despite the current cool factor of geek culture, it often seems contemptuous of love. Perhaps because love is fundamentally illogical and can't be diagrammed on a whiteboard or explained using Boolean logic, many of us treat it as an optional, even foreign thing. Much of geek culture actually seems to be designed as a replacement for dating. Who needs dates when you can fill your Saturday nights with World of Warcraft? Who needs a love life when you're married to your startup?
Contrary to popular belief, I'm a romantic and despite the bleak picture of dating I've painted, I don't think love is impossible. I think we just need to look at it differently. It isn't a magic unicorn dressed in a package that looks like George Clooney or Charlize Theron. It's an endeavor, much in the same way a startup is an endeavor. It usually begins as a minimum viable product and requires a whole lot of pivots. Even then, there's still a chance you won't achieve a customer fit. But it's too important not to try.
So if you're going out tonight looking for love, let down your guard and take a chance. Don't immediately dismiss somebody because they're too short or use a Blackberry or some other silly reason. Think of it as day one of your startup, not the billion dollar company you dream about. Most of all, remember that love doesn't always come wrapped in the perfect package. You might just be surprised by what's inside.

It's not much so dont get too excited, but talk of a third Jeepers Creepers movie is still going on in Hollywood.
In an interview with TV Guide, when asked about the possibility of another sequel, he said, "Victor Salva wants to do a third one, I'm pretty sure, and we have had some talks in the last couple of months. That's definitely on the front-burner." Like I said, its not much, but the possibility is still there.
Of course, if Wise were to return hed either have to do so in a different role altogether, or the film would be set where the last one ended: right before the Creeper wakes up to feed again after his 23-year long sleep. Another film detailing what happened between the first and the second, or even before that (he is awake for 23 days, you know)? Definitely!
But, again, its just rumor as of now. Well keep our ears open for something more official for you.

3 Good Reasons To Schedule Your 2012 Utah Spring Opening Early
2012 is the year! This is the year you schedule your Spring Opening early! Why? Well we've got the answers below:
1. Mild Winter=Early Summer:
When the temperature is 70 degrees in March in Salt Lake City, Utah there's a good chance you could be soaking up the rays poolside in spring this year. And you probably won't be the only one of your neighbors to have the same idea. Call and schedule your spring opening early this year- and don't worry, if the summer-like temperatures don't hold, you can wait to turn on the pool heater until you- and the temperature- is ready.
2. An Ounce of Pool Prevention….:
Hopefully this won't happen to you, but if you have the misfortune of discovering something has gone awry with your swimming pool or hot tub equipment over the winter months, don't wait until the last minute to schedule your spring opening. That way you don't risk spending Memorial Day waiting for a pool repair.
3. It's Just Not Worth the Worry:
Seriously! It's not worth missing those beautiful first days of swimming pool season waiting for your swimming pool company to come and get everything up and running. It's not to early to schedule your swimming pool spring opening. Call us today at 801-208-9527 to schedule your Spring Opening. We look forward to having your pool up and running early this 2012 year.
Swimming Pool Wiki
Did you know there is a wikipedia for the swimming pool and spa industry? Well there is, and it's called http://www.theaquapedia.com. It's a cool resource for pool and spa information, and also is sporting a brand new page on Lifeguard Pools and Spas. You can check out this newest Utah Swimming Pool Wiki Page by clicking here.
And that's not all, we also came across another fun wiki site for Homestar Runner, a guilty pleasure of ours. There is even a page dedicated to the swimming pool. Enjoy 🙂
Why is Ph Important to Your Salt Lake Pool
- Chlorine, your pools sanitizer, is most effective when Ph is between 7.4 and 7.6. You should measure and check the Ph level regularly- or hire Lifeguard Pools for regular swimming pool maintenance so we can watch it for you.
- If the Ph of your pool drops below the 7.4 mark, the water becomes too acidic and the acidity of the water can eat away the plaster, plumbing and equipment- which of course leads to pre-mature wear of your pool.
- If the Ph of your pool rises above 7.6, the water becomes scale-forming and can deposit scale on your plaster, plumbing and equipment- this can lead to your pool heater working less-efficiently.
- Another important reason to monitor the Ph in your swimming pool is swimmer comfort. Ph levels that are too low or too high can lead to dry itchy skin, burning skin, eye irritation, etc.
Mild Utah Winter = Early Summer?
You might have noticed that it's been a bit of a mild winter here in Utah. We can't remember the last time we had to pull out a snowblower- and it's February! Apparently the snow boots we purchased for the winter will have to wait until next winter to get any use. And have you checked out the weather report for the week? The 40's all week long! Hallelujah!
And we definitely aren't complaining about this mild weather front- as long as the water tables hold up. Do you think that means we might be enjoying an early summer? Will everyone be scheduling their swimming pool spring openings in April? Or maybe it'll be too hot to use our hot tubs by May?
Who knows, but we're looking forward to swimming weather!

- Plumbing Repairs
We also feature the following pool or spa services in case you haven't done so in a while:
- Acid Washing the Plaster: Acid wash, like acid trip? No. actually an Acid Wash is more like a facial peel for your inground pool or spa. After you drain your pool or spa, a diluted solution of muriatic acid is applied to the walls of your pool or spa. The acid takes away a fine layer of plaster and leaves your pool looking brighter, fresher, cleaner and with less stains.
- Tile Repair and Cleaning: We recommend repairing cracked tile as they occur, instead of waiting until half your pool needs some TLC.
- Draining and refilling pool: Most pools or spas should be drained every 5-8 years. Don't worry, it won't cost you an arm a leg to refill, thanks to our Utah water prices.

Houston's Menil Collection set to reopen in SeptemberJune 13, 2018 | In the Press
From The Chronicle (https://www.chron.com/entertainment/arts-theater/article/Houston-s-Menil-Collection-set-to-reopen-in-12985315.php)
Houston gets one of its jewels back on Sept. 22, when the Menil Collection will reopen to the public.
The world-renowned museum has been closed since late February for what director Rebecca Rabinow calls a "subtle yet substantial refreshment" of the 1987 building. Renzo Piano's modest, graceful architecture remains unchanged but the Loblolly pine floors have been refinished to look like new again, lighting systems inside and out have been enhanced, a new fire detection system has been installed and restrooms have been updated.
Visitors will find that it's not the same ol' same ol' within the galleries: all but one (the "Witnesses" room) have been redesigned with new installations of artwork from the permanent collection and promised gifts. Many of the museum's best-known paintings and sculptures will be displayed long-term, along with recent acquisitions and other works that have never been displayed there.
Two galleries will feature more temporary, rotating shows by living artists, complemented by public programs.
Rabinow embraced the repair time as "a lifetime opportunity" for the museum's curators to start from scratch and reimagine the familiar installations. She is thrilled with the results, which she said honor the "extraordinary legacy" of John and Dominique de Menil but also illuminate the collection's impressive growth since its founders' passing.
"We actively collect and reaffirm our commitment to living artists," she said.
Among the coming highlights:
Artworks related to the de Menil's "The Image of the Black in Western Art" initiative are installed throughout the museum. That landmark project has also inspired a new presentation of African and early modern European art that explores cultural exchanges from the 15th to 19th centuries.
LIKE A TREEHOUSE: 'Big Bambú' installation invites physical interaction at Houston's Museum of Fine Arts
A new gallery of works from the Pacific Islands will be the only display of art from that region on view in Houston.
A new room of Byzantine icons is a highlight of galleries featuring works from Medieval to Early Modern Europe (the 5th-18th centuries).
Galleries that have featured temporary shows for the last 30 years will instead highlight major works from the collection for the coming year, including 11 paintings by Fernand Léger that have been a little-known strength of the museum.
INSIDE: The Menil prepares for a major reboot
Giants of post-war contemporary art will star in one of the thematic displays.
The Surrealist galleries have been expanded to include entire rooms devoted to individual artists.
The foyer will celebrate Frank Bowling's monumental canvas "Middle Passage," which the de Menils acquired in 1970. It has grabbed attention on an international tour in the past year but has never previously been displayed at the Menil.
Once reopened, all of the exhibition buildings on the Menil Collection campus — including the Cy Twombly Galleries, the Byzantine Fresco Chapel, Richmond Hall and the coming Menil Drawing Institute, which is to open Nov. 3 — are open to the public, free of charge, from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Wednesdays-Sundays.

Metamerism (biology)
In biology, metamerism is the phenomenon of having a linear series of body segments fundamentally similar in structure, though not all such structures are entirely alike in any single life form because some of them perform special functions.[1] In animals, metameric segments are referred to as somites or metameres. In plants, they are referred to as metamers or, more concretely, phytomers.
In animals
In animals, metamery is defined as a mesodermal event resulting in serial repetition of unit subdivisions of ectoderm and mesoderm products.[1] Endoderm is not involved in metamery. Segmentation is not the same concept as metamerism. Segmentation can be confined only to ectodermally derived tissue, e.g., in the Cestoda tapeworms. Metamerism is far more important biologically since it results in metameres, also called somites, that play a critical role in advanced locomotion.
Metamerism can be divided into two main categories:
- homonymous metamery is a strict serial succession of metameres. It can be grouped into two more classifications known as pseudometamerism and true metamerism. An example of pseudometamerism is in class Cestoda. The tapeworm is composed of many repeating segments primarily for reproduction and basic nutrient exchange. Each segment acts independently from each other which is why it is not considered true metamerism. Another worm, the Earthworm in class Annelid can be an example of true metamerism. In each segment of the worm, a repetition of organs and muscle tissue can be found. What differentiates the Annelids from Cestoda is that the segments in the Earthworm all work together for the whole organism. It is believed that segmentation evolved for many reasons including a higher degree of motion. Taking the Earthworm for example, the segmentation of the muscular tissue allows the worm to move in an inching pattern. The circular muscles work to allow the segments elongate one by one and the Longitudinal muscles then work to shorten the elongated segments. This pattern continues down the entirety of the worm allowing it to inch along the surface. Each segment is allowed to work independently but towards the movement of the whole worm.[2]
- heteronomous metamery is the condition where metameres have grouped together to perform similar tasks. The extreme example of this is the insect head (5 metameres), thorax (3 metameres), and abdomen (11 metameres, not all discernible in all insects). The process that results in the grouping of metameres is called "tagmatization", and each grouping is called a tagma (plural: tagmata). In organisms with highly derived tagmata, such as the insects, much of the metamerism within a tagma may not be trivially distinguishable. It may have to be sought in structures that do not necessarily reflect the grouped metameric function (e.g. the ladder nerve system or somites do not reflect the unitary structure of a thorax).
In addition, an animal may be classified as "pseudometameric" meaning that it has clear internal metamerism but no corresponding external metamerism as is seen, for example, in Monoplacophora.
Humans and other chordates are conspicuous examples of organisms that have metameres intimately grouped into tagmata. In the Chordata the metameres of each tagma are fused to such an extent that few repetitive features are directly visible. Intensive investigation is necessary to discern the metamerism in the tagmata of such organisms. Examples of detectable evidence of vestigially metameric structures include branchial arches and cranial nerves.
In plants
A metamer is one of several segments that share in the construction of a shoot, or into which a shoot may be conceptually (at least) resolved.[3] In the metameristic model, a plant consists of a series of 'phytons' or phytomers, each consisting of an internode and its upper node with the attached leaf. As Asa Gray (1850) wrote:[4]
The branch, or simple stem itself, is manifestly an assemblage of similar parts, placed one above another in a continuous series, developed one from another in successive generations. Each one of these joints of stem, bearing its leaf at the apex, is a plant element; or as we term it a phyton,—a potential plant, having all the organs of vegetation, namely, stem, leaf, and in its downward development even a root, or its equivalent. This view of the composition of the plant, though by no means a new one, has not been duly appreciated. I deem it essential to a correct philosophical understanding of the plant.
Some plants, particularly grasses, demonstrate a rather clear metameric construction, but many others either lack discrete modules or their presence is more arguable.[3] Phyton theory has been criticized as an over-ingenious, academic conception which bears little relation to reality.[5] Eames (1961) concluded that "concepts of the shoot as consisting of a series of structural units have been obscured by the dominance of the stem- and leaf-theory. Anatomical units like these do not exist: the shoot is the basic unit."[6] Even so, others still consider comparative study along the length of the metameric organism to be a fundamental aspect of plant morphology.[7]
Metameric conceptions generally segment the vegetative axis into repeating units along its length, but constructs based on other divisions are possible.[3] The pipe model theory conceives of the plant (especially trees) as made up of unit pipes ('metamers'), each supporting a unit amount of photosynthetic tissue.[8] Vertical metamers are also suggested in some desert shrubs in which the stem is modified into isolated strips of xylem, each having continuity from root to shoot.[3] This may enable the plant to abscise a large part of its shoot system in response to drought, without damaging the remaining part.
In vascular plants, the shoot system differs fundamentally from the root system in that the former shows a metameric construction (repeated units of organs; stem, leaf, and inflorescence), while the latter does not. The plant embryo represents the first metamer of the shoot in spermatophytes or seed plants.
Plants (especially trees) are considered to have a 'modular construction,' a module being an axis in which the entire sequence of aerial differentiation is carried out from the initiation of the meristem to the onset of sexuality (e.g. flower or cone development) which completes its development.[3] These modules are considered to be developmental units, not necessarily structural.

SEATTLE (AP) Tight end Aaron Hernandez is active for the New England Patriots on Sunday against Seattle, his first game since suffering an ankle injury in Week 2.
Hernandez was hurt early in the Patriots' loss to Arizona on Sept. 16. He's missed the previous three games, but was a limited participant in New England's first two practices this week and listed as questionable on the injury report.
Hernandez's return is important as the Patriots are without wide receiver Julian Edelman. He was questionable with a hand injury and was downgraded to out on Saturday. Also out is starting linebacker Dont'a Hightower who had a hamstring injury.
Seattle defensive tackle Clinton McDonald is inactive with a groin injury suffered last week against Carolina. He was doubtful on the final injury report.

Ia ia Cthulhu fhtagn!
...a thing which was little more than a protoplasmic mass, from the body of which a thousand tentacles of every length and thickness flailed forth, from the head of which, constantly altering shape from an amorphous bulge to a simulacrum of a man's head, a single malevolent eye appeared.Here is some terrific video of a bioluminescent deep-sea siphonophore — an eerily fantastic creature that appears to be a single, large organism, but which is actually a colony of numerous individual jellyfish-like animals that behave and function together as a single entity. The individual units, called zooids, all share the same genetic material and each perform a specialized role within the colony."
"The best-known siphonophore is the poisonous Portuguese Man o' War (Physalia physalis), which lives at the surface of the ocean, unlike the one shown in this video (filmed at a depth of 770 meters). Some siphonophore species can grow up to 40 meters (130 ft) in length." source

Indeed, if we were giving SVG 1.0 last call comments, I might well be suggesting that, or at least a massive simplification of the markers model.

Most of the spec. is probably already existing in > commercial vector drawing programs, so it is doable. Commercial vector drawing programs are not the same thing as Web browsers. SVG is a W3C language, which means its primary use case is the Web. There is commercial software available that does full 3D rendering of movie-quality scenes with accurate fur and water and so forth (such as Pixar's RenderMan). But that doesn't mean that Web browsers should support that. There are programs that do ultra-high quality professional typography, with hyphenation dictionaries, drop-cap alignment, etc, but that doesn't mean CSS has to do professional-level typography. SVG doesn't have to be the high-end industry-standard vector graphics interchange language for the professional graphics artist. It has to be the Web vector format, optimised for easy implementation and ease of authoring, and integration into other Web languages.

Calla Lily Wedding Theme
A Calla Lily wedding makes me think of pure elegance. These graceful flowers are bursting forth on the wedding scene with vibrant colors that stand alone or blend easily with other wedding flowers.
Standard Calla Lilly or Miniature Calla Lily
When using Calla Lilies in your wedding bouquets, you must decide whether you want to use standard or miniatures. Standard have long, hollow stems and are difficult to use in bouquet holders because of their size.
You would be better choosing to use them as a graceful arm bouquet laid in the crook of your elbow.
Be sure to keep this bouquet in water right until you go down the aisle. It is a very thirsty flower and can become droopy if out of water for a long time.
As you can see by the bouquet below, I love to pair them with the broad Ti leaves and accent with lily grass. Very sophisticated!
This bouquet shows the one of the dramatic colors that calla lilies can come in. They are available in pinks, greens, whites, and many other beautiful hues.
Calla Lily Wedding Centerpiece
These soft blush calla lilies work well with brown hypericum, tulips and chocolate roses. Having a short clear vase works well for these thirsty flowers.
This elegant centerpiece has white calla lilies paired with white veronica on top a an OASIS Design Ring filled with ranunculus and white hydrangea. Roses could be substituted on the bottom for a similar look.
Calla Lily Boutonniere
A calla lily boutonniere give a look of sophistication to any groom's lapel. Simplicity is the key.

John, thank you!!! Wow! I am at a loss for words, that you would even think to mention me is an honor. Gosh, you just made my day!
I have a lot going on today, but I will check out your other mentions when I have a little more time.
My blog is 'bits and pieces', like everything else about me - but I wouldn't have it any other way.:)
Well, I am off for awhile. I hope you have a wonderful day.
And again, thank you for adding me to a witty and talented group of women.
P.S. I'll snatch this and post it when I get back on here later today.

Hey, John! You're a sweetheart! I am going to do it, but am going to do it when I am feeling a little more alive than I do at the moment. It's going to be a long weekend! The funeral is on Monday, a little later than I thought it would be. I have company coming in to stay, so going to go get a room spruced up.
I will definitely be posting this on my blog with a link back to you.

As always John ,you are very flattering to me and I'm honored by your compliments.
I'll be posting this on my blog, along with the other award you gave me. When I messed up my template and lost everything, I just haven't taken the time to fix it.
I need to get back on track with completing that and this is a good motivator!

@Blonde Goddess, No problem! I just loved this award, since it was not a meme disguised as an award! Your blog has a new fresh look and I love the layout. I hope you don't feel like you must put everything back in place. I love your blog and I also know you're a busy Mom & wife, so I'd rather see you add new content and not worry so much about restoring what once was...when you did the new layout the timing and everything worked out perfectly. I think you know what I mean, if not send me a D tweet.

Residency Programs
The College has a rich history in clinical residency education. The Residency in Vision Therapy was the first year-long program in the country. Residencies provide the opportunity to gain increased knowledge and clinical training for the newly graduated optometrist in a particular area of vision care.
Throughout the year, residents participate in grand rounds, workshops and/or a series of lectures and seminars at the College. Emphasis is placed on the development of the residents' didactic and clinical teaching skills. Each resident is required to present a minor and major presentation and submit a paper of publishable quality. SUNY's unique didactic program provides all affiliated residencies the opportunity to interact with residents and faculty at sites other than their own. All residencies are one year in duration and are accredited, or pending accreditation, by the Accreditation Council on Optometric Education (ACOE). The starting date for all residency programs is July 1. At the completion of the residency program, SUNY confers a Certificate of Advanced Clinical Competency.
Watch this video to get a firsthand look at what being a resident is all about:

- Conformed Standard
- About Dimensions
- News & Blog
- Endorsement
Generally speaking, the Dimensions of Data Quality are categories used to characterize data and it's fitness for use. These are needed for humans to define and communicate with each other regarding expectations of information and data quality.
Usage of the Dimensions of Data Quality:
In a 2015 survey of data management professionals, it was found that 35% of organizations use the dimensions of data quality to classify data related defects (see chart at right). Many formal data quality assessment methodologies are framed with the dimensions of data quality or at the very least include a step that incorporate them2.
Brief History:
The concept of the dimensions of data quality isn't new. In fact the earliest published work in this area that we are aware of was by Professors Richard Wang and Diane Strong in their 1996 paper titled Beyond Accuracy: What Data Quality Means to Data Consumers. In their work they identified 15 dimensions within 4 categories. Many other authors such as Thomas Redman, Larry English, David Loshin, and Danette McGilvray have also provided their own versions of the dimensions of data quality. A few organizations have also identified the dimensions and provided their own definitions as well, such as The Data Warehousing Institute (TDWI), and the Data Administration Management Association (DAMA). The principal contributor/steward of the Conformed Dimensions, Dan Myers, compared six authoritative information quality authors and organization's definitions of the dimensions of data quality, in 2013, as part of a series on this topic in Information-Management.com. This was the groundwork for what we now call the Conformed Dimensions of Data Quality.
Relationship with Data Quality Tools:
Data can be characterized for fitness of use through human review, but this process can be slow and introduce errors caused by human oversight, forgetfulness and data entry. Because some of the dimensions of data quality describe the characteristics of data in a formulaic manner, software tools can leverage these definitions to automate the assessment of data quality. As described in the Conformed Dimensions of Data Quality, there are underlying concepts within each dimension of data quality. Each of these concepts and it's associated metrics offer formulas that computers can use to profile or provide reports measuring adherence to definition. Various technology firms offer advisory services when choosing which tool best fits your organizational requirements. Gartner provides a list of the companies offering data quality tools in their publication titled, Critical Capabilities for Data Quality Tools.

We are delighted with them and the standard of work and finish. Our builder is rapturous about them and was very pleased they came completely finished and ready to install with no painting or glazing required. Once again thank you.
Dan Gold
Ranebrook fitted two slide and tilt wooden sashes for us in very tricky locations, one on the fourth floor into a difficult panelled dormer, the other above a conservatory. They were organised, clean, courteous and tidy. The windows were of excellent quality. Vytas was a pleasure to deal with and I would not only use them again but would definitely recommend them to others. I can't really fault their service, prices or quality. And I wouldn't say that very often…..
Valentin Varga
I used Ranebrook on a prestigious project in Hampstead, central london for the supply of 2 sliding sash windows. Products were great, price was right, and delivered on time as promised. I will use them again that is for sure.
Clare Hopping
Great quality windows and service. It's so much warmer and quieter with all this wind we've been having. Highly recommended!
Philip J.
Ranebrook have been excellent throughout the process of purchasing a new window. Great service and delivery , would definitely use this company again.
Tofiq Aslam
The wooden windows which were supplied were very good. They were fitted well and on time. The people were courteous and helpful. I would be happy to use them again and to recommend them.

We have used Ranebrook Windows product & services since 2008, years are the best proof of what you can achieve. I would highly recommend Ranebrook team, specially Vytas, for their professional approach, being always on-time with the best product! Best wishes, Hedi Group
