Sensitivity. It's one of the most common complexion concerns – and also one of the most misunderstood. From redness to burning; break-outs to itchiness, all of us are bound to experience a skin reaction at some point, so it's time to get armed with knowledge!
- How do you know if you have sensitive skin?
- What causes sensitive skin?
- What type of cleanser should I be using for sensitive skin?
- Try the Clarisonic for sensitive skin
- Sensitive skin and your body
- La Roche Posay for sensitive skin
How do you know if you have sensitive skin?
It's important to differentiate between sensitive skin and sensitised skin.
Sensitive skin is a genetic predisposition (generally a Northern European background). The skin burns easily in sunlight and can react to triggers, such as food. This is because the complexion tends to have a lower amount of pigment and a thinner epidermal (top) skin layer.
Sensitised skin can target any skin type regardless of age or race. In fact, it affects over 50% of people! This temporary condition is when the skin becomes over-reactive from external factors, resulting in irritation, redness, itchiness, stinging or tingling sensations and product intolerance.
What causes sensitive skin?
Skin sensitivity can be the result of, or exacerbated by, a wide variety of factors such as seasonal change and temperature, astringent or harsh ingredients, over exfoliation, allergies, stress, hormonal changes and medications. Even coffee and alcohol can be a cause!
The skin has a protective layer, called the Acid Mantle, which is a defence mechanism against foreign bacteria and moisture loss. Over-use of products or excessive treatments like peels and microdermabrasion, will damage the acid mantle, leaving the complexion irritated and fragile.
Expert Answer: What type of cleanser should I be using for sensitive skin?
Cleansing is one of the most basic elements of a skincare routine, and also one of the most important. They help to remove remove excess oil, dirt, and makeup from your skin. However, not all cleansers are created equal, especially for those with sensitive skin. When looking for cleansers, it's important to make sure you find one that's specifically formulated for your skin type.

It's important to choose a cleanser that moisturises. Look for a product that contains hydrating ingredients such as glycerin and hyaluronic acid, which hydrate and attract moisture to the surface of your skin. Avoid foaming cleansers, as they will dry out your skin even more.
Your skin will benefit from cleaners that remove excess oil and dry your skin, which help reduce breakouts and prevent further blemishes. If you want to take an extra step in treating and preventing acne, look for medicated cleansers that contain salicylic acid (to help unclog pores) or benzoyl peroxide (to kill bacteria) as active ingredients.
You'll want to keep that oil balance you have. Opt for a cleanser that has a combination of moisturising and oil-control properties, making sure that it's mild enough for regular use. As your sebum levels are totally under control, the main priority is up-keep – so make sure you're cleansing morning and night for maximum results!
It's best to choose a cleanser that incorporates anti-ageing benefits – antioxidants and vitamins are great properties to look for. Additionally, mature skin is likely to be dehydrated, so it's important the formula is thick and moisturising. You want to lock in as much nourishment as possible!
Try the Clarisonic for sensitive skin
The Clarisonic, the first sonic cleansing system of its kind, has received worldwide recognition as one of the best products you can buy for your skin. Have you thought about purchasing a Clarisonic, but are unsure as to whether it's safe to use on sensitive skin? The Clarisonic can actually help alleviate skin sensitivities – here's how.
How does the Clarisonic Work?
The Clarisonic cleansing system comes in several varieties: the Mia, Mia 2, Aria and Plus. Using 300 rotations per second, Clarisonic works with your natural elasticity and skin properties to remove sweat, grease, cosmetics, environmental pollutants and dirt at depths unable to be reached by traditional, fingertip cleansing.
Moving the device across your cheeks, forehead, nose and chin (some models even have a timer, so you know how long to spend on each section), it works with any cleanser – oil, foam, gel or milk.
Pick the brush head that's right for you. Available in deep pore, sensitive, normal, luxe and body, used once to twice daily, your Clarisonic will begin to alleviate your skin's sensitivity.
- Reduction in dry patches
- Less flaking and chapping
- Better absorption of serums and moisturisers
- Higher cell turnover (so that plump, gorgeous new skin can shine through!)
- Decreased appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
- Smoother, softer texture
- Cleaner, more radiant complexion
Sensitive Skin & Your Body
Eczema and Psoriasis are two very common conditions that affect the body and face of those with sensitive skin. Find out what they are, what the difference is and how you should treat these conditions here.
Eczema usually starts in childhood before the age of five, and is commonly caused by environmental aggressors – these can include food allergies, harsh cleaning chemicals, and animal dander.
Psoriasis usually forms in adulthood, and is linked to genetics. Psoriasis is found on tougher skin areas (arms, knees, elbows) whereas eczema is more commonly found in sensitive skin areas (neck, inside of elbows and the back of the knees)
Maintain a low room temperature as much as possible. Avoid wool garments, instead opting for cotton where possible. Use gentle, soap free cleansers and emollient moisturisers.
La Roche Posay for sensitive skin
Sensitive, soap free formulas and fragrance free products make La Roche Posay the perfect choice for sufferers of Eczema and Psoriasis. La Roche Posay's Lipikar range is Eczema Association approved, meaning it is perfect for those with sensitive body skin. Here are our top picks:

2019/2020 (4th edition) is at University of Minho
2019/2020 (4th edition) is at University of Minho
This PhD program in Applied Mathematics (MAP-PDMA) is intended to foster the development of applied or applicable mathematics, conferring the degree of doctor of philosophy to motivated students from different scientific backgrounds.
The MAP-PDMA is a PhD joint program of the Universities of Minho (Department of Mathematics and Applications), Aveiro (Department of Mathematics) and Porto (Faculties of Sciences, Economics, Engineering and Biomedical Sciences).
The MAP-PDMA is intended for promoting the development of mathematics, applicable or applied, in a broad sense through the granting of a PhD degree to motivated students of varied, but adequate, backgrounds.
The teaching staff consists of mathematicians of the three universities and several research centers with an academic diversity that offers a wide range of applications. This diversity in academic origin provides a wide range of applications that can be exploited at thesis level, as well as a considerable variety of taught courses.
The student enrolling in the MAP-PDMA can choose from a list of taught courses aimed at providing the necessary basis for their research. The courses can be chosen to fill gaps of previous academic curricula, to direct the students to a specific line of research and/or to provide information to guide them in their choice of research area. The courses available vary each year depending on the teaching staff's availability and on the demand of students. Classes will be taught in English, except if all students are Portuguese fluent speakers.
The primary overall goal consists in endowing students with scientific autonomy in the field of Applied Mathematics and its applications in four large domains: Mathematics, Engineering, Economy and Health.
This context is twofold:
Will be admitted graduate students (pre-Bologna) or possessing a 2nd cycle of studies (post-Bologna) in Mathematics, Engineering, Physics, Astronomy, Chemistry, Economics or related fields, if the training is considered appropriate to the course objectives.
The MAP-PDMA PhD program corresponds to 240 ECTS lasting four academic years on a full time basis and includes
The MAP-PDMA PhD structure of the 1st year, with 60 ECTS, is organized as follows: Seminar (9 ECTS) and Research Project in Mathematics (21 ECTS), both mandatory, and specialized optional courses in (i) Mathematics and Applications (24-30 ECTS), and/or (ii) from any 3rd cycle of studies at UM, UA and UP (0-6 ECTS).
Each student must choose the optional courses as follows:
The choice of all optional courses is subject to approval by the Scientific Committee.
The remaining 180 ECTS correspond to the 2nd, 3rd and 4th years which are dedicated to research and writing of the thesis.
The approval in optional courses and Seminar, corresponding to 39 ECTS, confers the award of "Diploma of Advanced Studies in Applied Mathematics".

Risk and security can no longer be separated, if they ever could. In fact, at some companies, cybersecurity is being moved from its corporate silo into a broader basket of risk management. The argument has been made that Target had the right strategy in neglecting cybersecurity; the hit from being hit, they say, still cost it less than the costs and friction of a proper cybersecurity strategy, which may not have been effective anyway. That view is too cynical for most organizations, but a realistic assessment that puts cybersecurity as just one element in a broad framework of costs, risks, and rewards is surely in order.
We'll look at a variety of risks that need to be managed, focusing on those introduced by computer systems, mobile devices, IoT, and cloud computing. We'll also consider the tensions and tradeoffs among security, efficiency, customer satisfaction, and privacy.
We will be visiting the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, a vibrant University Affiliated Research Center that has provided critical contributions to the nation's critical challenges for 75 years. This visit will have a threefold focus: cybersecurity, space, and robotics/prosthetics; recurring themes will be visualization and collaboration.
During our field trip we will experience the cybersecurity-related data visualization resources of the LIVE Lab (LIVE = live data, integration, validation, and experimentation); the collaborative problem-solving environment of Cyber Central; how AR can enhance the process of mechanical design, with the Solar Probe Plus spacecraft as a case study; the high-res imagery from New Horizons Pluto fly-by spacecraft, which APL engineered; and a prosthetic arm with direct neural control and feedback, created in the Intelligent Systems Center.

Last week, I demonstrated that functions exported from Script Modules do not inherit their caller's variable scopes, and how you could get around this by using the method $PSCmdlet.GetVariableValue().
It didn't take me long to decide it was very tedious to include this type of code in every function, particularly when considering the number of preference variables that PowerShell has. (Check out about_Preference_Variables some time; there are quite a few.) I've just converted this approach into a function that can be called with a single line, and supports all PowerShell preference variables. For example, the Test-ScriptModuleFunction from the original post can be written as:
function Test-ScriptModuleFunction { [CmdletBinding()] param ( ) Get-CallerPreference -Cmdlet $PSCmdlet -SessionState $ExecutionContext.SessionState Write-Host "Module Function Effective VerbosePreference: $VerbosePreference" Write-Verbose "Something verbose." }
You can download the Get-CallerPreference function from the TechNet Gallery. It has been tested on PowerShell 2.0 and 4.0.

Please describe your experience with blood transfusion. Submit Your Comment
I had a blood transfusion in November. I had anemia but it was due to too much blood loss. My problem since then is my body sometimes feels weak and I keep having infections, I don't know why; maybe because of the blood transfusion, I don't know.
I had a blood transfusion, it's been 3 days since. I was having endometriosis and I was on blood thinners so my menstrual period ran a little longer, so I ended up needing 4 bags of blood every now and then. Since then I've gotten headaches, and feel a little sick, I guess every now and then. I guess it's the foreign object in my body so I'm reading all of the comments to see if anybody else is going through the same thing that I'm going through.
I had three units (3 1/2 liters) of blood transfusion due to internal bleeding. The next day I got mild gout, which had not really gone away for two months. I also had a fever of about 100 degrees 3 to 5 days after the transfusion. Say what you want, it beats the alternative!
I had about 10 blood transfusions from September 23 through October 30, 2016. I was an inpatient for acute promyelocytic leukemia. It's now April 2017. I wonder if I could be getting side effects this late after the treatment. I'm bloated, tired, weak, dizzy, some back pain, and shortness of breath especially when I walk any distance.
I just had a blood transfusion last week, after having some abnormal vaginal bleeding due to multiple fibroids. I went to the emergency room and was admitted because my hemoglobin had dropped to 7.7 (it was 8.5 a month ago). They admitted me and monitored my levels overnight and in 5 hours, my blood count went from 7.7 to 6.7, so I had to have a transfusion. After 2 bags, I left the hospital 4 days later with a hemoglobin level of 8.0 and a prescription for 325 mg iron pills to be taken twice a day. My experience was pretty calm; no reactions or pain, except for where the IV was inserted in the fold of my right arm (I'm right-handed). It was just weird that someone else's blood was being pumped into my body. I can't say I was happy about that. Now, I still feel very tired and the lightest activity exhausts me. I will be having surgery soon to remove the fibroids and hopefully that will allow my body the opportunity to build its own blood so no more transfusions are necessary.
My face got puffy and stayed like that even after a week of blood transfusion.
I just recently had a blood transfusion. Well, 3 of them to be exact because my blood count was dangerously low to the point I could have gone into cardiac arrest. It went well, and they would not let me have anything at first, no food or water or anything till I got admitted to the hospital for 3 days. After my first blood transfusion they let me eat and drink water. My nurses were awesome. I hope I don't have to have it again but if I do, I know I will be well taken care of.
I had a week of heavy menstrual bleeding last year, and after it ended, I felt really exhausted, to the point even walking was a task. One day at the office, I could feel my heart beating through my chest and I was terrified. I told my husband and he picked me up to go have it checked in the hospital, and after a round of blood test and ECG, the doctor was somewhat shocked and asked me if I felt like I was having a stroke. I said no, I don't think so. But he was baffled that I was coherent, but my readings were all over the place. So after another full blood test, he found the cause, my blood count was low. Dangerously low and my body wasn't producing enough blood that my heart was working overtime to pump blood to my body. So I was admitted to the hospital to do an emergency blood transfusion. It was not an experience I want to endure ever again, but because of my endometriosis, it's highly likely I will. First, they won't let you eat, I was only allowed water. So the entire night I was there, I was put on a fast. My veins were narrow, so the blood had trouble going in. I didn't feel nauseous or anything, but I remembered my arms were always cold especially when the nurses would sometimes have to guide the blood up my arm. After almost 2 pints, and another blood test to verify the count went up, I was allowed to go home. The next few days I felt a little feverish and tired, but felt much better after that.

After blood transfusion the patient is suffering from loose motions.
After my 28th January blood transfusion, today I got my new report and everything is very good. I was anemic with 4.8 hemoglobin which came to 8.1 after blood transfusion of 2 points. And now fresh report says it is 12.6. I'm happy but surprised as well, because during this 1 month I took only tardyferon B9.
I am 47 years old. I lost a big amount of blood during my last period. I realized that I was feeling a lack of energy, and had a headache which I never have experienced before. I was getting tired soon. I got my blood test with 4.8 hemoglobin and immediately my doctor called me and advised to go to hospital. I have so many doctors in my own family so when I told them that I have 4.8 hemoglobin, they advised the same. I went to hospital and was given 2 transfusions which brought my hemoglobin to 8.1 and I left the hospital after 2 days in better condition and all my symptoms were gone. Thanks doctors, thanks researchers for giving me my life back.
Last night I received two units of whole blood for anemia due to chemotherapy. The first unit took almost two hours which I was told was normal because they needed to start slow and watch for reactions. The second unit ran in less than 50 minutes. That seems rather fast for a 71 year old with multiple medical problems.
I received a blood transfusion and the needle slipped so the blood started to go to the tissue.
I need a blood transfusion almost every month. I have had at least 30 the past few years and I want to refuse any more of them.
I have been transfused with 2 units of blood, and both my legs and thighs are swollen.

So many great things to say
I cannot hush enough about this amazing venue. Don was the most helpful- constantly responding to my crazy texts on the day of, answering all questions, and helping with as much as he could. The venue is gorgeous for an outside wedding, with so many great photo opportunities. Our original venue fell through a month before the wedding, and this place fell into our hands. I would recommend the venue to anyone who needs a lovely place to get married, or just a neat venue for an occasion.Sent on 12/10/2018

Shalonda at Arizona Historical Society Museum was very responsive and helpful with all of our needs for setting up the venue for our wedding day. She even agreed to have the temperature in one of storage rooms lowered so we could store all the flowers in there overnight as opposed to having to haul them all over in the morning. The venue looked great during our sunset ceremony and everyone was please with the amount of space to move around, and our out of town guests loved having the natural landscape as a backdrop. The option to choose all our own vendors and supply our own alcohol for the bar makes it the best value for a wedding venue in the Papago Park area hands down.Sent on 03/22/2016
Sarah · Married on 08/08/2015
Part of our criteria for choosing a venue was that the price we paid would feel more like a philanthropic donation to an established institution than a rental, and we found that at the Arizona Historical Society Museum. We even paid a little more to have the museum open just to us and our guests before the wedding, which was lovely. AZHS's prices are totally worth it during the off-season, and you're not even sacrificing anything because their A/C is INCREDIBLE, and the Sandstone Lobby is naturally beautiful. We loved working with Shalonda as well. She was SO flexible with us and put up with my endless emails. Thank you, AZHS! We now have a beautiful place that we can go and enjoy on our anniversaries! I look forward to more exhibits :DSent on 08/14/2015

Abstract Reasoning Test
Check out our comprehensive guide on abstract reasoning tests and find out what they are, what they involve and how to successfully pass one.
What Are Abstract Reasoning Tests?
An abstract reasoning test is a type of psychometric assessment and is designed to measure your lateral thinking skills, or your fluid intelligence. This refers to your ability to quickly identify patterns and relationships, and integrate this information to solve complex and abstract problems.
This is generally achieved by identifying a pattern or relationship in a series or sequence of pictures, shapes or diagrams and choosing the missing item to complete the series.
Abstract reasoning tests are typically used by companies and employers as a means to determine the suitability of potential employees to specific roles. They can also be used on existing employees to shed light on individuals' mental capabilities and behavioural styles, which are otherwise difficult to measure in their job performance.
They can either be taken separately or as part of a series of psychometric and aptitude tests. For example, Career Hunter has developed its own Abstract Reasoning Test which is intended to be taken alongside its five other tests: Career Interests , Work Personality, Career Motivators, Numerical Reasoning and Verbal Reasoning.
The results from each test are then combined to provide accurate career matches based on your professional strengths, interests and priorities, along with detailed test results, relevant course recommendations and a personalised 55+ page career report.
Jobs That Require Abstract Reasoning Skills
Although abstract reasoning tests can be used for the evaluation of almost any job, they can form an integral part of the recruitment process for certain professions where mental ability is an important aspect of overall performance.
They are particularly common for creative, IT, science and engineering roles, including:
Graphic Designers
Landscape Architects
Mechanical Engineers
Medical Scientists
Software Developers
Sample Question
The Career Hunter Abstract Reasoning Test is comprised of 20 questions which you need to answer by correctly identifying the missing item in the accompanying sequence of shapes.
Which of the following images completes the sequence?
The third picture is a small circle, followed by a slightly larger circle in the fourth picture. Likewise, the fifth picture is a small triangle, followed by a slightly larger circle in the sixth picture. Therefore, if the first picture in the sequence is a small square, then the next picture should be a slightly larger square.
This is the standard question format we use in the Career Hunter Abstract Reasoning Test.
Tips for Preparing for an Abstract Reasoning Test
Contrary to popular belief, you can prepare for an abstract reasoning test and, in effect, improve your score and overall performance. Here's how:
Practice Beforehand
There are plenty of free tests available on the internet that you can take to help you prepare for an abstract reasoning test, but bear in mind that these are usually low quality and very basic. It's highly recommended that you take a more accurate test (which could mean spending a little bit of money). That being said, the Career Hunter Abstract Reasoning Test is free to take and includes a number of practice questions, though you'll need to purchase full access to the entire testing system to view your detailed results.
Solve Puzzles
You'll typically find logic puzzles in newspapers and magazines but your best bet would be to buy a couple of puzzle books from your local newsagent or – if you're more on the tech-savvy side – download a dedicated app or two on your mobile or tablet device.
Stay Calm
Like any other test or exam, abstract reasoning tests can be extremely daunting (especially when they're being taken at an assessment centre or as part of a job interview) but the trick is not to let nerves get the better of you. Of course, this is easier said than done, but nothing will damage your performance more than losing focus during one of these tests – so, take a deep breath and relax!
Manage Your Time
It's only natural that you may come across a difficult question or two – after all, abstract reasoning tests are designed to be challenging. However, as most of these tests are timed (depending on the test, this can be anywhere between 10 and 40 minutes), make sure you don't waste valuable time trying to solve difficult questions and simply move on to the next question if you're stuck. You can always come back to the questions you skipped if you've got any time left!
Establish a Pattern
Changes in sequences are central to identifying the correct answers in abstract reasoning tests. Look out for the number of shapes, their position, rotation and colour, as well as things like the number of sides of a shape.
Look Out for Distractors
Some sequences feature shapes and colours which are purely distractors. Beware of these!

CONTEXT: Patriarchs claiming they had married their sisters? Incest? (Ctr Lev 18:9, Dt 27:22) What a strange story, twice about Abraham and Sarah and once about Isaac and Rebecca. It must have been a popular "memory" to have been thus retold. I present the three in parallel columns the better to compare and enjoy them.
Assyriologist Ephriam Speiser, in his Anchor Bible commentary, 1964, offered a charming and plausible explanation for the repeated, though unconvincing (to say the least), themes of deceit and putting your wife at risk to save your life. Speiser argues that the stories were told so long after the events are said to have occurred, a millennium and more, that the writers had lost touch with the ancient meaning and function of the subject. To wit:
In Hurrian society (Bronze age northern Messopotamia) the bonds of marriage were strongest and most solemn when the wife had simultaneously the juridical status of a sister, regardless of actual blood ties. A man would sometimes marry a girl and adopt her as his sister at the same time in two separate steps recorded in independent legal documents. The wife-sister relationship is attested primarily among the upper strata of Hurrian society. Abraham by legend originated from Western Semites who lived alongside the Hurrians with this peculiar practice, uncountenanced by other cultures and certainly by the later Israelites. But what remained in folk memory was the meme of an ancestor occasionally referring to the woman he lived with as his sister. The threat situation in the three stories would then be a literary device invented as an understandable, if far fetched, justification.
GLOSSARY: Note that אשה, ishah, in these stories and elsewhere, means simply "woman," and the practice in this translation is to leave to the reader or hearer its interpretation as "wife." The E version uses a strong idiom for a married woman: "owned of an owner/mastered to a master/lorded by a lord," b'ulat ba'al, בעולת בעל, (cf Deuteronomy 22:22). As ishah is frequently translated "wife," so is ba'al frequently translated "husband," a loss of intent and context. Ironically, B'ulah appears as a tender and loving appellation in Isaiah 62:9.
Sheva, שבע, means both "seven" and "sware." With this word, the final story conflates the oath between Yitschak and Avimelech, the newly dug well where water was found, and the name "to this day" of B'er Sheva.

Have you ever wanted to fake a vomit? Or maybe get revenge. This is the perfect way.
Teacher Notes
Teachers! Did you use this instructable in your classroom?
Add a Teacher Note to share how you incorporated it into your lesson.
Step 1: Gather Materials
You will need:
1. A glass of water.
2. Some Arnott Milk Arrowroot biscuits.
3. A plastic ziplock bag.
Step 2: Place Some Biscuits in the Ziplock Bag
I recommend around 4 biscuits per batch.
Step 3: Add Half a Glass of Water to the Biscuits
Put less water in if you want the mixture to be more thick. Wait until the biscuits become rather soggy and flimsy.
Step 4: Squash Them.
Use your hand to crush the wet biscuits together. Mix them until they look like the image.
Step 5: Drain the Water
Grip the middle of the bag so no solids pour out but some liquid drains. Do not drain too much!
Step 6: Cut a Corner
Using either your teeth or some scissors, cut the corner off the bag, 2cm should do.
Step 7: Squeeze Out the Contents
Squeeze the contents of the bag by gripping the top and squeezing the body of the bag. Be careful or it might backfire.

Latest News
The Plan has been developed by the Islands' Partnership, the lead body for tourism and business on Scilly and has been supported by all of the islands' major stakeholders and funded by the Cornwall & Isles of Scilly Local Enterprise Partnership.
Alongside new investment in transport, quality and service, the plan calls for a stronger emphasis on its hidden cultural heritage, its potential as an eco-destination as well as the need for increased collaboration to help extend Scilly's comparatively short tourist season.
James Berresford, Chairman of the Islands' Partnership: "As a destination, the Isles of Scilly is blessed with some of the most outstanding natural assets of anywhere in the UK. We have a wonderful opportunity to harness these assets in a way that repositions the islands as the escape destination, meeting the growing demand for discerning, authentic, experience-led tourism. The Destination Management Plan will be instrumental in bringing the islands together behind this shared ambition, helping to ensure our industry is both sustainable and fit for the future."
David Jackson, Executive Director of the Islands' Partnership added: "Today's launch marks a really significant moment for the islands. The Destination Management Plan, alongside the emerging Smart Islands programme and a new Local Plan, represents a genuinely exciting opportunity to trigger a real step-change in our industry and for Scilly to become a truly sustainable destination that's economically resilient yet protective of its precious environment and unique sense of place."
Tim Bagshaw, Head of Operations at the Cornwall & Isles of Scilly Local Enterprise Partnership said: "Tourism is one of the region's priority sectors and has been recognised as such in our 10 Opportunities prospectus. For the Isles of Scilly in particular, there's real potential for Scilly's tourism industry to grow and become more competitive and we're confident that the new Destination Management Plan will be a vital mechanism to help drive this growth."
The launch event for the new Destination Management Plan was held this afternoon at Tregarthen's Hotel on St. Mary's and brought together many of the islands' leading tourism businesses, coinciding with the national English Tourism Week.
You can download and read the Destination Management Plan here. (This is a compressed file. If you'd like a hard copy you can request one from the Islands' Partnership office.)

I, JohnPeter Elverding, sold my company EltraPol in 1995 to widen my horizon.
After some 15 years in our family SME, producing traffic signs and metal constructions, followed by a spin off that supplied parking equipment and developed/sold our own software I thought it was about time to go back to my roots, marketing and other things I learned at Nyenrode Businessschool, Rotterdamse Repetitoren and NIMA.
Philips, Dutch Railway System (NS), Mosion software and services, MF informatica, Royal KPN (hosting) and Buhrmann e-Platform were the more larger companies I had the pleasure of working at. Or with.
From that time on, say 2002, I went up and down like a yoyo, driven by yet another kind of passion: Sustainability and renewable resources like synthetic diesel and oil. It made me meet a lot of nice, and sometime terrible people, but it didn't make me money, which in the end lead to selling off our house and start again. 50 indeed was like the new 25.
But some great things came out of that less than nice time like two daughters that developed an entrepreneurial spirit and a loving wife that blossomed from a secretary job to being a well respected consultant on communications and information to the city of Midden-Groningen.
Valentines day 2012 Kim (1988), Fleur (1991) and me went to the chamber of commerce to set up Elverdesign, a vehicle that could help them to pursue their studies and make use of their respective skills. "Sadly" for me they were quickly snatched away by larger companies and since 2014 Elverdesign is more or less alseep, with me building the odd website, design some furniture and create some innovative plans. When needed I could and can rely on my daughters but also on several professionals for graphic design, texts and photography.
Kim is now (2018) working in Australia as a project manager for an ICT company and Fleur is active as a consultant at Kantar Consultancy, one of the best marketing consultancy firms around.
Last but not least: Karin, my rcok for over 35 years, is a senior consultant of Communication in the city of Midden-Groningen, with two exhaustive files "Effects of Gas mining (Earthquakes)" and Care.

Modern data pipelines are more complex than traditional data warehousing pipelines. They must support a multiplicity of data sources, data types, and use cases; they must be designed and deployed in an agile manner; they must support batch, mini-batch, and streaming data flows, and, they must meet service level agreements for data quality, availability, and consistency.
Many organizations are turning to data catalogs to support modern data pipelines. Data catalogs can automate the tagging and organization of ingested content and derived data sets, harmonize data flowing through multiple new and existing pipelines, support data curation processes, and enable business users to explore content for analysis. This Webinar will explore the role of data catalogs in managing modern data pipelines along with supplemental services.
You Will Learn:
– How organizations create, optimize, and manage data pipelines to support multiple use cases.
– The role of a data catalog in a modern data pipeline.
– How to leverage a data catalog to harmonize and curate data
– How organizations use data catalogs to facilitate governed data access and exploration

It's been relatively quiet in the NHL the past few days, and nothing significant to report, so I thought I will write something about the newest signing of the Canucks, Jason Krog.
So who is Jason Krog? First off, he is a local B.C. boy, from Fernie. He plays center, medium built at 5'11 and 191 lbs. Jason played his junior hockey with the Chiliwack Chiefs of the BCJHL, and during his college hockey years at University of New Hampshire, he captured the 1999 Hobey Baker Award as top collegiate player, but this will be the only Hockey award he will receive for the next nine years. [Other Hobey Baker Award winners include Paul Kariya (93), Brian Holzinger (95), Brendan Morrison (97), Chris Drury (98), Ryan Miller (01)].
But for some reason, Krog was never drafted. After capturing the Baker, the Islanders signed him as a free agent on May 14, 1999 only to send him to their AHL affiliates. Then, during the next nine years he floated between AHL and NHL teams, but always showing signs of his offensive abilities. During his stay with Islander's farm team, Brideport Sound Tigers, he finished 2nd in scoring by only playing 64 games, he follow that up with 23 point in the playoffs and winning the Calder Cup against the Chicago Wolves.
Fast forward nine years, during the time he had a decent run with the Anahiem Mighty Ducks, playing 67 games and 25 points (10g, 15a), and 21 games in the playoffs helping the team to the finals in his first year, and 18 points in 80 games during his second year with the Ducks. He played in the SEL during the lock-out and upon his return, he played 14 games with the Thrashers and 9 games with the Rangers.
But not until this year, when he finally settled down to play a full season (80 games) with the Chicago Wolves, the team which he help defeated during his time with the Bridgeport Sound Tigers for the Calder Cup 6 years ago, did he have a breakout year.
He scored a total of 39 goals, and 73 assists for 112 points in the regular season, capturing the John Sollenberger Trophy as the league's top point scorer, Willie Marshall Award as the league's top goal scorer, and the Les Cunningham Award as the league's MVP. Krog led the wolves to a divisional title, and help them reclaim the Calder Cup during the playoffs, while leading everyone in scoring, hence also capturing the Jack Butterfield Trophy as playoff MVP.
Although he individually captured almost all of the significant personal achievement awards in the AHL, Jason Krog was hardly noticed, as usual, just like nine years ago. What Jason accomplished this year, would surely be noticed by the Thrashers organization, one would think. However, he wasn't offered to resign with the AHL club or promotion to the NHL club. No NHL team was interested in him, in fact, just prior to Canucks signing, Krog has planned to play in Russia come the following season.
I heard some people criticizing Mike Gillis on this pick-up, suggesting that Krog will only be an career-AHL player due to his past, and that Gillis has again picked up some trash another team left unwanted. (Sometimes these arrogant fans really piss me off)
On the contrary, I think Mike Gillis did a great job acquiring Krog. Yes, he was given his opportunity during his time with the Ducks, the Rangers and the Thrashers. But I see Krog as a late-bloomer, and one who has developed into a mentally-strong player through his years of failures and disappointment. He has shown that he has the offensive skills this year, and I think coming home to Vancouver, he will have the highest incentive to try to stay in the big club. Combining the above with the lack of offense with the Canucks, which should provide more opportunity and ice-time for him, I think he will have a great year in the NHL this year.

Please forgive this post for being late…between an early schedule and our stellar satellite service (NOT!), try as I might I was not able to get this to load yesterday, due to severe storms in the area. However, I do take responsibility and will be more diligent about watching the weather and having something ready in case of impending winds, rain, slight breezes, light sprinkles or the possibility that an errant leaf might disrupt or distract said satellite.
Now for the good stuff! My love of barns is not something that I only foster in the fall so don't let the picture lead you astray. I'm always on the lookout for these amazing legends of our past. Over the years I've seen too many that are simply neglected and sadly in need of some serious tlc. Unfortunately I've seen even more that are in differing states of deterioration, sagging and leaning here and there and eventually giving up altogether and collapsing into a pile of rubble and rot.
Last year I happened across a barn tour and spent the better part of a day walking in and out and around several different barns; learning about their history and the families who have cherished them. During that first tour I learned about the Iowa Barn Foundation and how they, through their team of volunteers, help qualified barn owners receive matching grants to restore these pieces of our past. For those who are able to do the restoration on their own they offer Awards of Distinction. They even have volunteers who create their bi-annual publication, offer legal and financial advice as well as administrative services.
In an effort to educate people about the history and importance of rural life, they bring people together through varying events and meetings. In the fall they hold their annual barn tour that allows us to witness these beautiful relics up close. Some of the barns are listed on the National Register but they all offer a glimpse into a rich past. I love the feeling of stepping back in time and imagining the people who built them and used them. Many of the current owners have had these barns in their families for generations and their enthusiasm and emotion is contagious as they talk about their late great-grandparents or uncles and aunts and reminisce about stories from childhood. Many have some wonderful photos of not only before and afters of the barns restoration but the people who originally built them and in one case the different horses and a pony who were stalled there.
It's a humbling experience to stand inside these rough, sturdy built structures and in a sense, be surrounded by the generations that knew first hand what it meant to work hard and provide for themselves and their families solely through the land and what their efforts brought from it.

Lifecare Homes uses the Metrapanel construction system to form the "shell" of our houses. As opposed to traditional timber framing and plasterboard, the Metrapanel system uses solid wood panels. These panels are prepared to the desired size specification at the Metrapanel factory and transported to site where they can be erected within two days.
HPA has enjoyed a relationship with Metrapanel for over 15 years, and in this time has constructed over 150 homes using the system. Advantages of using Metrapanel include decreased build times - which leads to cost savings - durability, and low maintenance. As Metrapanel walls take up less space than timber framing we can add an additional 6% usable floor area to your new home. Metrapanel is hardwaring and resilient, making it low maintenance - ideal for both family homes and investment properties.
Contact Lifecare Homes today to discuss your future home or investment.

We found the issue, there was one Config setting missing . below is the path for the missing config
SPRO > Logistic general > Global trade management > Activate Components > Position >.
Once you reach the above SPRO Path, go to the Condition Contract control functionality and tick the option Bill. Doc to settle and Activate Condition Contract pricing should be as X Condition Contract pricing is Active .
Once you activate the Condition contract Pricing , we should be able to see the PCHB Price Condition or DCHB Discount Condition in the Sales order .
Hi all,
Just wanted to share incase helpful,I had the same issue, and to resolve it, updated the condition contract (WCOCO) and maintained the customer and material information on the Business Volume Selection Criteria tab.
I then recreated the Sales Order and the DCHB condition and value as per contract was automatically added to the order.
Im now moving onto getting the settlement working.
I am working with SBB1 which i have copied into ZBB1.

Seems to be a problem here. Gets invalid hostname when trying to connect to the listed URL.
I see that the web service is published based on the Web Server listing. I assume that the default IP 127.0.0.1 (localhost) can be used.
To check that it's not a network problem I have used the third party software Wezarp (evaluation version), and this is working nicely on my IPAD showing the data from the same vi.
Not an expert on this stuff so appreciate any good advice.
The address shown in your screenshot is for the Debug Web Server. The Application Web Server, which hosts the services listed in the web interface (your second screenshot) usually runs on port 8080. You can confirm this port in the Web Server Configuration tab of the web interface, in the Application Web Server section.
The two methods of running a LabVIEW web service (Debug and Deploy) are described in this Help document. Mainly, Start will put the web service on the Debug server and Publish will put the web service on the App Web Server.
Also, 127.0.0.1 is a special IP address that always means "this machine" (whichever machine you're running on). If you try to use that IP from Data Dashboard then it will try to connect back to th iPad, which is obviously not what you want. You need the PC's real IP address.
Here is what I get using the default URL; http://127.0.0.1:8080/WebService_kt/Graph
Not sure if I should expect more numbers here sice the main vi publishing the graph is running.
Same result when changing the IP and browsing from another pc on the network.
There are two different contexts involved here: your editor context, which has the VI window that you are looking at, and the application web server. Your VI is running in the editor, but it's not running in the application web server context. Since you used global variables those are also scoped to the current context, which means when the web service runs in the application web server's context it will get the values of the variables in that context, instead of the ones in your editor context. That is, they're separate variables, which is why you see an empty array.
One approach to fixing this is to use shared variables instead of globals to communicate between the two contexts. That's the easiest thing to do, but isn't as easy to deploy to other machines if that's important.
Another approach is to make your Main VI be a "Startup VI" (by moving it into the "Startup VIs" folder in the web service). That will cause this VI to run when the web service is deployed. The tricky part is that when that VI is run it won't have a UI. You will have to rely on the web services to know what is going on.
Another approach, which I like, is building this into a new application (using an Application Build Specification). You can configure the application build specification to enable the web service when it is run, which will actually start up a new web server (at a port specified in the build spec) for this web service. With this approach you can take that .exe and deploy it to some other machine (along with an installer if needed), and wherever it is run it will carry its web service with it. And the best part is that you still get your UI at the same time.

Introduction: Hack-A-Toy, LED Blaster Style
Hey, welcome to my first Instructable! This project is my first toy hack since I was a little kid melting army men together to form, well, melted army men. My kid picks up toys from school "treasure boxes" and restaurants and dollar stores like it is his job. Sometimes he gets doubles. This particular fella was lacking a missile to launch, but the opening looked like a good spot for an LED...
This project is good for practicing soldering in tight places, basic wiring, and liberating pieces from other broken toys. I would estimate this whole project was free, if we ignore the initial costs of whatever the toys, soldering iron, glue gun, and the like originally set me back. Shall we proceed?
You will need:
1. A suitable toy needing an upgrade. Should be hollow (many fast food toys seem to be) to hold new electric guts.
2. LED of your choosing. I went with a small red one I got out of a broken "Star Wars" style generic toy gun.
3. A resistor of suitable rating to avoid burning out the LED if you think you might like several in series. Calculate using Ohm's law (R = (Vs - Vf)/I, where Vs is the voltage coming in, Vf is the forward voltage of your LED, and I is 0.015 mA. The one I built is pretty mickey mouse and probably doesn't need the resistor I put in there, but it was part of the original toy and I figured it isn't harming anything by being in there. Made me practice some extra soldering at least!
4. A small button switch. You can use any sort of toggle or switch - repurpose something from another broken toy if possible.
5. A 3v button battery. As I got mine out of an old motherboard (the things people throw away!) it had a handy mounting bracket with it.
6. Tools: soldering iron, glue gun, wire strippers, wire cutters, screwdrivers to crack into toy.
Teacher Notes
Teachers! Did you use this instructable in your classroom?
Add a Teacher Note to share how you incorporated it into your lesson.
Step 1: Get Toy. Go Make a Triangular-headed Screwdriver. Disassemble Toy.
Title says it all. I found two of these guys in my kid's junk box and asked Jr if he'd mind if we improved it a bit. Gathered tools and found, yes, those darn triangular-headed screws. Read another Instructable about grinding a nail into the appropriate shape (this one), managed to crank one out with a Dremel and also managed to not have Jr grind his own knuckles off, and got to work on the robot. Looks like a prison shiv, works like a dream.
Step 2: Survey Your Domain.
Cracking this guy open I was excited to see a small spring loaded button that deploys the missile, if he had one. The small button switch I found in the aforementioned toy gun would JUST fit under it with a little bit of work. The chassis is also not filled with extraneous support posts or plastic bracing, so I had lots of options for where I could pack the wiring, batteries, etc. The LED, resistor, and wiring fit perfectly along the length of the arm, too, so long as I kept the joins nice and neat. Just had to pull out that longer spring.
Play around with your components, wiring, and the like before you fire up the soldering iron and glue gun. Oh, and put the legs, other arm, and the ridiculously tiny head in a bag for later. Must've misplaced his head 64 times before this simple project was completed.
Step 3: Breadboards Are Fun.
I started to explain the point of breadboards to Jr, but he figured it out pretty quickly: you don't want to find out that LED you poached from that garage sale toy is, in fact, dead AFTER you've put the whole project back together. We played with a few LEDs we pulled from the gun, made static-y sounds with a small speaker it also had, and made a motor twirl. Parts for future projects! Then we got back to our gutted robot after confirming that we did indeed have a working LED (in red, no less!) and the button still worked.
Step 4: Start Assembly.
LED was secured with a little hot glue, then the wiring was fitted along the arm. The preexisting plunger had a perfect gap to allow the wires through without pinching them against the frame! I had to gently remove some plastic below the plunger so the button switch would fit. It's a bit wobbly in there but should hold for at least the length of the life of the little 3v button battery I'm using.
Sorry there's no wiring diagram. This one is pretty basic. Connect positive end of battery (or battery housing if you are lucky in your scavenging) to the switch, continue with another wire on the neighboring switch post to the LED. I connected the resistor directly to the cathode. From the other end of the resistor we carried the current back to the negative end of the battery. Circuit complete. After giving the plunger a test or two we decided it was sturdy enough to commit to closing it up!
Step 5: Enjoy Your Hacked Toy.
Warn the kids not to shoot it directly into anyone's eye. For the love of Mike.
I hope you enjoyed this short Instructable. I look forward to any comments or questions you may have.

The end of August marks the conclusion of Grief Awareness Month here in Australia. It also means the coming of Spring in the southern hemisphere, a time of joy and hope. Below is a prose poem I wrote to acknowledge this period. I dedicate this writing to those close to me who have suffered grief and loss in their lives. Thanks to my fellow writers at the Open Genre Writing Group at the NSW Writers' Centre for their feedback and input into this piece.
Leaving 1
He drew his last breath at midnight. It was early spring.
By morning he was icy cold.
The empty highchair a raw reminder of his leaving.
Pureed carrot still smeared on the plastic tray.
In the blur of days that followed friends and neighbours cleaned, put flowers round the house, left food at the front door.
The grieving mother's sister took time off work to help with the funeral arrangements.
And to choose the plot to bury the child.
Under a paperbark tree. Sheltered from the weather. As if that mattered now.
The sisters embraced at the site where his little body would lie.
The pock of a golf ball being hit on the course next door anchored them in their despair.
A complaining crow sounded a mournful cry.
The funeral briefly relieved their sorrow; the ceremony and formality of it oddly comforting.
The sister had suffered that loss too; her baby also dying in her sleep.
Now buried with its grandmother. Surrounded by strangers.
Same pointy chin. Same frown. A union under the quiet earth.
She had held her and held her until the policewoman gently said we have to take her now.
They zipped her up in a small blue bag and drove her away in the gathering dark, lights flashing and siren off.
The hardest thing she said was removing her dew soaked clothes from the washing line the next day.
Leaving 2
I didn't know he was leaving.
I thought he was coming back to make amends, to start anew.
After a ten day absence I prepared our reunion with lighted candles and fresh flowers.
The house held the hushed anticipation of a wedding, a celebration.
But he returned to say that he wasn't coming back. That after eight years he couldn't do it anymore.
He closed the front door quietly behind him, as if not to disturb me any further.
He only took his guitar.
I watched him go, his shoulders hunched, and saw that he had lost weight.
After he left, the wedding photos in the lounge room pierced my eyes. I turned them around to face the wall.
The house dissolved around me, as if it was grieving too.
I ate frozen peas for the first few days.
I forgot to shop, to cook and clean, and made a nest on the lounge room floor to sleep in.
This is where I received worried friends who came with hugs, sad eyes and food.
After a month I moved back into the bed. Our bed.
He had come for all his possessions by then. But left the stuffed giraffe from his childhood.
The house became darker, solemn. But for the dust motes dancing in a splinter of light through a part in the curtains.
I rang a cleaner and sat in the bath from lunchtime until after the sun went down, the water cold.

Look, I know what you are thinking of doing just from seeing these caps and I just have to stop you right there! Hear what I have to say about the movie first then go on and waste your bandwidth!
The exception being those who are fans of anything movies and not just yuri movies! You can go and start getting this then. But even then…Nah, I think I have to cut a bit of this negativity down because I feel like I am just wallowing and wallowing these days.
But really, you can't blame me! These movies are already becoming a realty in Japan and yet they keep doing these same mistakes, or maybe it is a formula to them now! I am starting to think it is a formula! The formula of having really bad endings and cold feet in the middle of the story! Now when I say bad endings I don't mean it in a 'OMG the lesbian died' kind of bad end! I mean it literally, and that is if there is an ending at all!

Soon after the economic collapse a few years ago, the United States government and financial industry imposed tougher lending standards that eventually prevented millions of consumers with weak credit from refinancing their mortgage, purchasing a new home or trading up. This may now change for those who have racked up an enormous amount of debt because of medical costs.
The credit rating firm FICO announced that it will be implementing new guidelines at the end of the year that will be more lenient of individuals who have accumulated vast sums of healthcare debt and have been the target of debt collectors. Identified as FICO Score 9, this move may very well assist a large amount of Americans to attain lower mortgage rates.
Essentially, your credit score will feel less of an impact by a bad debt owed to a health clinic or a hospital than if you were in debt to a credit card company, car dealership or cable provider.
"For example, instead of classifying a consumer as someone who paid or didn't pay her bills in absolute terms, the various degrees of the consumer's payment history have been quantified," FICO said in a statement. "The end result is a score with an improved ability to assess the risk of thin files."
The three main revisions in the FICO Score 9 include medical debts repaid in full will be omitted, overdue medical payments will be considered less on a FICO score and new measuring techniques will be incorporated to analyze credit worthiness for those with minimal credit histories.
A majority of credit scores range from 350 to 850. The purpose of these scores is to determine the probability of a consumer entering into default on a loan, which is usually defined as 90 days of non-payment. A credit score is calculated using debt information from Equifax, Experian and TransUnion. FICO scores are utilized in 90 percent of all lending transactions.
Medical Debt & Credit Scores
We reported in June of a Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) study that discovered medical debt is ruining the credit scores of consumers, which then affects their applications for credit cards, vehicle loans, mortgages and rates. In fact, medical debt accounts for approximately half of all collections on credit reports.
Financial and healthcare industry professionals aver that medical debt is far different than normal consumer debt because patients are unaware of the price-tag until after the treatment is conducted. The CFPB report noted that medical debt can have more of an effect on credit reports than an unpaid cellphone bill.
"When you take out a loan, typically you know how much you will owe and the interest rate you will be charged up front. But with medical costs, you have less visibility. Costs are often unknown until after treatment," said Rich Cordray, director of the CFPB, in a statement.
After studying five million credit reports between 2011 and 2013, the CFPB found that credit scores are undervaluing the credit value of consumers with medical debt by about 10 points.

Why is it always so difficult to find answers to simple questions about human anatomy on the net? Let's see if some nice reader can answer these:
1. Why and how does sensation sometimes radiate along a nerve? I mean when you irritate a certain point along the nerve and you can feel it along the whole nerve. I can sort of understand how sensation radiates down - you pinch a nerve in one place and somehow screw up the data that it is carrying upstream - but how does it radiate up? I can irritate some points between my fingers and feel the nerve all the way to the neck.
2. All the site I found talk about radiating pain, and sometime this weekend when I mentioned that a pleasant sensation can be radiated this way people looked like they didn't know what I was talking about. Is pleasant sensation radiating along nerves somehow rare? I find most of the sensations radiating along the nerves of my arms quite pleasant - it's a very sharp shot of pleasure, stronger than an orgasm but much shorter and more difficult to attain - and have spent many boring lectures and meetings in my life trying to find and stimulate the right points. The points are not always sensitive to stimulation, but once stimulated properly it becomes quite easy to repeat the sensation fairly often during the next few hours. Does anyone know what I am talking about? I find it hard to believe that I am the only one doing that.
The places where I usually find these points are on the inside of the arm above the elbow, and also between the second and the third and the third and the fourth fingers, more towards the back of the hand than towards the front. These seem to be situated on the same nerves, on maybe just on the nerves that are very close to each other.
