When the Enactus team at the Academy of Public Administration realized there was a strong desire in rural areas to start family poultry farms but a lack of resources to do so, they saw an opportunity to act. Starting with the research phase, the team met with a number of families to learn more about their situations and learned that not only was farming a dream for many of them, there was also a strong demand in those areas for affordable, organic poultry. After meeting with a number of expert organizations and government agencies, the team had the innovative idea of converting old refrigerators into egg incubators, which they could sell the families at a significantly less cost than industrial versions. In addition to supplying this important tool, they helped the families launch their farms and provided ongoing consulting services to increase their success. To date, 45 new businesses have been launched and 85 new jobs created.

After initially hearing about Enactus two years ago, this past year Tarlan finally got involved, playing an important role in rebuilding the team and making it stronger than ever. And while he was impacting the team, it was impacting him: as a freelance graphic designer, he had struggled in the past to make connections but working with the team has opened up a whole new network of people and business opportunities. With two years left, he is committed to staying involved and is excited to experience the World Cup in Toronto. So excited, in fact, that he has set himself a goal of becoming a world champion.

The GLA's Draft Further Alterations to the London Plan (FALP), intended to update the capital's spatial plan, are currently being examined and Catriona Riddell, the Society's Strategic Planning Specialist, told Planning magazine that she was concerned over the interaction of the FALP and the NPPF.
Riddell commented "If the FALP is adopted ... it will be very interesting [when the first borough creates a local plan] to see what the debate is about their objectively assessed needs, because they have to be in general conformity with the London Plan, but also with the requirements of the NPPF."

It was January 24, 2017. Today on January 25 I met with Mr. Shiva and Mrs. Delrin. They are father and mother of Mr. Ram the owner of The Breeze Residence. Among them the father is a Hindu and the mother is a Christian. But they are leading their life peacefully. Their son Mr. Ram is also a nice man. I always seen him dealing with his boarders nicely. However, people of this land is tolerant to each other. This land is multi cultural in nature due to its inhabitants of different religious group and here Adam's Peak is such a place which is sacred for all the followers of the major religions of the world. However, there are other places to visit. Whatever, the case may be while you are in this country where do you like to live? It is an important question. Those who come here in a package tour of tour organizers this post is not for them but those who come alone or with family it may be helpful one.
For the information of the Bangladeshi traveler I am giving the address of The Breeze Residence. It is near the Negombo sea beach which is in the 09 Perera Place, Kudepaduwa, Negombo, Sri- Lanka. +94 312230187 Mobile +94 771 662621. For information of the potential travelers from any where one may give a ring to Mr. Ram. For the long stay in the Sri Lanka such a residence is cheaper than hotel and they allow cooking. It means you will not face food problem.
So, you will be able to enjoy family life during your travel. Besides Mr. Ram is so friendly that he tries to give all types of comforts to his boarder and arranges transport for reasonable rate from car dealers for the tourists.
However, for the information of the travelers, it is worth mentioning that Train and Bus fare in Sri Lanka is quite cheap. As for example, I have visited Negombo to Colombo by Highway bus and Local bus. Fair of first one is 120 Lankan Rupees whereas other one charged only 56 Rupees. I visited Kudapadua to Palangatu only by 10 Rupees. I paid 2nd class fare of train from Hatton to Colombo about 260 rupees. From Hatton one may travel by Bus to Adam's peak and its fare is very less but due to our fault we missed the Bus and paid a commission agent 5200 Rupees with parking charge for that distance for a micro bus. In the Bus we would had to pay not more than 500 Rupees for one way travel for four persons. So, imagine the difference.
But many of the visitors go to the tour organizers for transport because visitors come here for shorter time and want to complete their seeing in shorter possible time. It is also for your information that such organizations are established for business purpose and are surviving by getting commission and other profits.

This day in WND history: 'Huge surge' of 'unscreened Muslims flood U.S.
Check today's milestone in news site's path to greatness
'Huge surge' of 'unscreened Muslims flood U.S.
March 26, 2015: Muslim immigration from dangerous nations became dramatically higher in recent years, and government assurances that immigrants are being properly screened is "a farce," WND reported.
"It's a huge surge under Obama. In the last three years, he's averaged 100,000 new immigrants from Muslim nations a year. That is very alarming. It's more than we're importing both from Central America and Mexico combined. This is a big shift in immigration flows," said Paul Sperry, who is the author of "Infiltration: How Muslim Spies and Subversives Have Penetrated Washington" and co-author of "Muslim Mafia: Inside the Secret Underworld That's Conspiring to Islamize America."
"It's really insane what we're doing. No one's really talking about it, but this mass immigration from Muslim countries poses a serious national security threat," said Sperry.
The stated reason for the influx in recent years is the rise in refugees from war-torn nations like Syria and Iraq. The number of people accepted from Syria in particular baffles Sperry, who said there is a long standing policy of keeping Syrians at bay.
"Syria has always been on our terrorist list," he said. "We have had very strict restrictions on Syrian immigration. Since Syria's become a failed state, Obama's increased the number of refugees. By the time he leaves office, we will be importing over 10,000 Syrians into this country. This is a concern because Iraq and Syria are now controlled by the Islamic State."
The government insists the case of each refugee is carefully scrutinized before he or she is allowed into the U.S. But Sperry said that claim is laughable.
"At the top levels of the administration, DHS and so forth, they claim that these refugees are being vetted," Sperry said. "But it's a complete farce. We know that from testimony from the FBI officials who are in charge of that type of vetting process for terrorists coming in under visas and these refugee programs."
What has the FBI testimony shown?
"They admit, under oath, that they have no idea who these people are, and they can't find out what type of backgrounds they have, criminal, terrorism or otherwise, because there is no vetting opportunities," Sperry said. "You can't vet somebody if you don't have documentation, police records, etc."
Is the IRS even legal?
March 26, 1999: WND was first to report on a former IRS special agent who determined his agency was illegal.
"The Internal Revenue Service is everything the so-called tax protesters said it was; non-responsive, unable to withstand scrutiny, tyrannical, and oblivious to the rule of law and the U.S. Constitution."
That's how Joseph Banister, a certified public accountant who was an investigator and gunslinger for the Criminal Investigation Division of the IRS, now regards his former employer. His conclusion is based in part on a personal two-year investigation into the agency's history and purpose, an investigation he began somewhat reluctantly, never expecting he'd reach the conclusion he did.

As Arsenal fans cry out for new signings at both ends of the field, I posit that a tactical change from Wenger could be just as important as bolstering the squad with additional players.
The current situation
At present, Wenger sets his Arsenal side up with a fairly standard 4-2-3-1.
The full backs are encouraged to join the attacks, forcing the wingers to increase their defensive duties.
This is why Ramsey has been pushed out to the right, and one of many reasons why Walcott has been keeping the bench warm.
Playing Olivier Giroud as a solo striker often slows the attacking play, especially when the Frenchman is tightly marked.
Furthermore, it leaves the Gunners with no counter-attacking threat, due to Giroud's lack of pace.
Too much emphasis placed on the holding midfielders
Much of the play is dictated by the two 'holding midfielders'.
Typically, Wenger opts for one Deep lying Playmaker and one Midfield Enforcer, meaning only three outfield players are defence-orientated.
This leaves Arsenal very susceptible to counter attacks, particularly from fast strikers, which is only worsened when playing Per Mertesacker.
A perfect example of this was seen against Chelsea at the Emirates last season, where the German was exposed and brought down Diego Costa as the Blues were breaking- he received a straight red card and Arsenal lost the match.
Given their possession-based style of play, Arsenal are relatively easy to play against.
Simply pack your defensive third of the field, and aim to hurt the Gunners on the break, utilizing their defensive fragility.
Recent seasons have been littered with results where, despite dominating possession, Arsenal have come away with nothing to show for it.
How could a defensive-three work?
Assuming there are no more signings in this transfer window, which is looking more and more likely, Arsenal could potentially utilize a three-at-the-back formation in a couple of ways.
The first option would be to go for a variant of the 3-4-1-2. For me, this option gives this current Arsenal side the best combination of attack and defence.
By placing Mertesacker in-between Koscielny and Montreal, you accommodate his lack of pace whilst enhancing his strengths; mainly his aerial ability.
Gibbs and Bellerin would perform essentially the same role as they would in the 4-2-3-1, expected to contribute to both attack and defence.
However, under this system, there is much less concern should they be unable to make it back, as there are three centre-backs there to cover for them.
In the centre of midfield, the roles are again similar to the 4-2-3-1.
One of the deeper two would sit and act as a screen in front of the back three, whilst the other would be expected to start moves from the centre, and potentially get more involved in attacking moves.
The forwards, the biggest benefactors of this change
The front three is where this formation is at its strongest.
By placing Mesut Ozil behind a dynamic and pacey attacking combination of Welbeck and Sanchez, you can really take advantage of his almost unparalleled vision and passing ability.
Sanchez too is given much more freedom, with the ability to drop alongside Ozil to pick up the ball, and then drive up beyond Welbeck.
The main striker is much less isolated, with two players near him to link up play to.
Another variation
This second use of a three at the back formation is one of my own creation. This is a variation of the defensive three that aids and allows for ball playing.
The first major difference you will notice is the absence of Mertesacker.
With the lack of wide defensive support, the outer of the three centre backs push wide to cover those areas, with the two deep midfielders covering them centrally.
This means, ideally, you need a defender with a bit of pace, hence the German's exclusion.
In addition, placing Chambers or Holding on the right of the three gives you the tactical flexibility to change formation if necessary, as both can play at right back as well.
How the holding midfielders can ease the team's flow of play
The two deeper midfielders are key.
Tasked with bringing the ball from the back line, they dictate the direction and pace of the attacks, whilst being required to limit their forward movement as they are needed for defensive cover.
Ramsey in the centre is given the freedom he always craves, whilst still allowing for Ozil to play in the number 10 role and act as the creative focal point for the side.
The two wide men are less restricted by defensive duties, they can either hug the touch line and cross to the solo striker or cut inside and make an attempt themselves.
With effectively four players around him, assuming the central midfielder pushes forwards, Giroud is significantly less isolated and given a greater variety of service.
Crucially there is a greater chance of crosses, which would take advantage of his often overlooked prowess in the air.
Wenger's notorious stubbornness makes any change unlikely
Other than occasional experiments with a 4-5-1, Arsene Wenger has rigidly stuck to the same formation, and same style of play for several seasons.
As a result, this Arsenal side has become stale, their attacking movements are predictable, and they are easy to set up against.
Too often they are reliant on moments of individual brilliance from the likes of Sanchez and Ozil.
No more so has this been evident than at the start of this current season; with Ozil out and Sanchez playing out of position, the Gunners are faltering in attack.
Switching to a three at the back formation would give Arsenal the edge they have been lacking for some time, adding an element of unpredictability to their play style, and allowing them to hurt teams on the counter-attack.
Yet, as has become painfully apparent in recent years, Wenger is a man who firmly sticks to his ideas, meaning it is unlikely we will see a tactical switch any time soon.

"Even after it explodes into a million pieces and burns down and you're standing in a pile of the ash of what it once was, thinking, 'Why did I have to meet this person, why did this have to happen?" Swift says in the November issue of U.K.'s Marie Claire, on stands Oct. 4. "But then, when you make eye contact with someone across the room and it clicks and, bam, you're there — in love again."
And the 22-year-old country crooner makes no apologies for her many chart-topping break-up ballads.
Swift has romanced the likes of John Mayer, Joe Jonas, Taylor Lautner and Jake Gyllenhaal. And though she stays mum on the subject of her songs, woeful details of her love life have found their way into her Grammy-winning lyrics.
"Music is absolutely everything that I am and everything that I stand for," admitted the singer, whose fourth album Red will drop Oct. 22. "It's not my fault if someone gets into a relationship with me and then cheats and I write a song about it."
As for whether dating high-profile beaus poses a problem, "I think I have to trust that you end up with the person you're supposed to end up with," said Swift, who's been dating Conor Kennedy since the summer. "Plus it makes for great stories when you're older."
When she does find that picture-perfect mate, Swift wants to settle down and start a family. "[My] money will be really good for sending my kids to college some day – or maybe I'll have a few more kids than I thought," she said. "I want a bunch of them running around, minimum four. I want to wait a while, but… the idea of pouring everything you are into another person when you become a parent has always been amazing to me."

I can not speak highly enough of the quality of work that Ellen does. She worked on my daughter's wedding dress over a period of 9 months.
Ellen basically redesigned the dress and fitted it and helped with every aspect of the dress, making my daughter love her dress. She was funny and fun and never lost patience with us. She even advised my daughter how to stand and walk with the dress. As an added benefit Ellen sent us to the most lovely veil maker.
We are only sorry she will not be there at the wedding to see her great work.
Lani D.
Ellen is incredibly talented. She took in my dress more than 2 sizes and did a beautiful job. She knows her stuff, she clearly explained things about the material, the cut and why she was doing what she did.
Is it cheap to have your dress altered here? No. Is it worth it? Absolutely. I was super stressed the 2 weeks leading up to the wedding and lost more weight. When I went in for what was supposed to be my final fitting, the dress was now baggy around the hips. Ellen was kind and patient and despite being fully booked the next week, made time for me to come back in and make sure it was right.
I highly recommend Ellen, particularly if you have a big job with alterations.
Jules V.
Fabulous experience. I bought a Nicole Miller wedding gown and was unhappy with the cardboard-y shape the lining made in the bodice. Ellen had worked on a similar dress and had great suggestions on how to reformulate it. She added boning, trimmed the oddly asymetrical lining, took out the useless bra/garter, added cups, took in the sides and let out the hips, and added a bustle. I would have had no idea what to ask for but she knew exactly what the dress needed, and what its weaknesses were.
Julia M.
Ellen is simply amazing. She hemmed and took in my Lela Rose wedding gown and did it absolutely perfectly - what an expert! In addition, I had her make a delicate lace piece to go over my dress since I am religious and she did a tremendous job - the lace piece really made the dress! She made sure to keep the design true to my style and the craftsmanship was excellent. I will recommend Ellen to everyone for any alterations needs.

Why Is American Idol's Casey Abrams in the Hospital Again?
His medical condition comes to light.
One of American Idol's front-runners this season is the full-bearded 20-year-old Casey Abrams, a soul man who's had to take two recent trips to the hospital, including one that forced him to miss last night's show. Producers and Ryan Seacrest have been tight-lipped about his condition, but People reports that the singer is suffering from ulcerative colitis, an inflammatory bowel disease that can be aggravated by stressful situations. "Hey guys, thanks for the well wishes, I got some nice fresh blood in me and feeling better," Abrams tweeted last night after blood transfusions, adding, "This is my dream, I'm going to keep fighting to stay in."

Deleting old windows 7 from secondary storage
I installed windows 7 on my secondary storage HDD since my raptor died. Now I have a new raptor and freshly installed windows 7 back onto it. But how do I delete the old windows 7 from the secondary storage without reformatting the disk.
Every time I try to just select all the windows files in that drive and delelte it, I get the error msg
"You need permission to perform this action.

Hello shadow85, welcome to Seven Forums!
By way of explanation, more than likely the boot files are on the "other" Windows 7 and it won't let you delete them, do as suggested and supply a snip/screen shot of disk management and someone will help you further.

What do you mean you want to "delete" win7 from the secondary? If you intend to install another OS on it, its probably best to format and clean install. If you intend to only store media, again best to format it.

Hi, I have posted a screen shot of disk management. I hope this is what you asked for.
So as you can see from the img, disk 1 (C:) drive is my raptor drive that I use for programs/games/windows7. And disk 0 (D:) drive I use for all other files, media, work documents etc. But disk 0 still has these folders from the Windows 7 that was installed on it from before: Program Files, Program Files (x86), ProgramData and Windows. I want to remove these folders but cannot as I recieve that error message I stated before. BTW I already am the adminstrator.

You may need to copy boot files from old drive to your Win7 drive, before deleting the old drive.
Check to see there those files are.
|My System Specs
|23 Jun 2010
But when I start my computer up it automatically selects my raptor drive to load the windows 7 from. It does not give me an option to chose which drive to load windows 7 from. I think that maybe because I have already deleted lots of windows 7 files from the old HD already, there are just those few folders/files left that I cannot delete.
|My System Specs
|23 Jun 2010
Once I selected to show operating system files in folder options, I could see a list of new O/S files in the old drive, but again it would not let me delete them saying I need permission from the Adminstrator, which is really frustrating me because I am the administrator and there are no other user accounts on my computer.

Eamonn Holmes' Sky News Sunrise replacement has been revealed
Sarah-Jane Mee will take over the reins from Eamonn Holmes as the new anchor for Sky News' flagship breakfast programme Sunrise.
She will be joined by new co-host Jonathan Samuels, currently the senior correspondent for Sky News, as well as sports presenter Jacquie Beltrao and weather presenters Isobel Lang and Nazaneen Ghaffar.
Mee said she is "so excited" to be taking over from Holmes, and that the appointment is "a real honour".
She said: "I feel privileged that I will be starting the day with Sunrise viewers around the UK and beyond. Live news is always such a thrill, you never know where the morning will take you and I looking forward to finding out."
John Ryley, Head of Sky News, said: "I am delighted that Sarah-Jane is to anchor Sunrise. She's enjoying a stellar career here at Sky and will bring a fresh outlook to Sunrise, combining a lightness of touch with sharp journalistic nous; I know she will excel in her new role."
Sarah-Jane's career began at Sky, first of all acting as a runner for Sky Sports before moving to ITV in 2002 to become a sports reporter in the Midlands.
She enjoyed a brief radio career as co-host on Heart FM's breakfast show before returning to Sky in 2008.
Since then, she has worked for Sky News and has fronted Saturday Night Football and Cricket AM on Sky Sports.
Earlier this year Sarah-Jane enjoyed a short stint as lead presenter on Sunrise, and she has said she is looking forward to "returning to the Sunrise hot-seat" permanently.
Eamonn recently confirmed that he would be stepping down as the programme's lead anchor after 11 years.
He said that anchoring his own breakfast show was "the stuff of boyhood dreams" but that it is time for him to step down due to "having so much to do but little time to do it".
Sarah-Jane will begin her new role as Sunrise's lead host on October 17, along with Jonathan.

Kerry turns Bush's carrier landing against him.
"Carrier" was produced for the Kerry campaign by Riverfront Media/GMMB & SDD. To watch the ad on the Kerry campaign Web site, click here and choose your preferred format and download speed next to the word "Carrier." For a transcript of the ad, click
From: Jacob Weisberg
To: William Saletan
The new John Kerry ad, which began running this week in Iowa and New Hampshire, makes its point with labels and costumes. The first shot shows the aircraft carrier USS Lincoln dressed in a banner that says "Mission Accomplished." Since the worm turned in Iraq, President Bush and his spokesman have advanced the dubious claim that the sailors aboard the carrier were responsible for that act of premature signification. But the Kerry ad doesn't go into all of that, settling instead for the simpler irony of the administration declaring victory in Iraq too soon.
The second shot is Bush, in the infamous shot after he landed on the deck of the carrier, dressed in an olive-drab flight suit (military garb and straps were in last season) with a helmet tucked under his arm. The ad suggests that this was a phony costume to go with the false label on the big ship. Bush had no right to wear military garb, because he never served in the real military, only in the Texas Air National Guard, which kept him far from Vietnam. This juxtaposition is a page out of the Bush family's own political playbook: It's Michael Dukakis playing soldier in a tank.
Next we see our hero Kerry—not on an aircraft carrier, but in front of one, and wearing not a military uniform, but necktie and shirtsleeves, the uniform of a hard-working politician who fights for the people. The fourth image is a black-and-white still of Kerry having a medal affixed to his chest. The truthful label "Combat Veteran" flashes across the screen. Then we see more shots of Kerry in action, as it were, on the Senate Intelligence and Foreign Relations Committees. He leans forward with his head bent over, his eyes peering intently at some invisible witness as he gestures, pointing and chopping at the air, as he makes very important points about our nation's security.
Taken together, these pictures say: John Kerry has the right to wear a military uniform but doesn't feel the need to show it off. Bush has no right to wear a uniform but does. The voice-over narration develops this idea further: "Who can take on George Bush and change the direction of the nation? John Kerry. A leader on national security. A decorated combat veteran. Served on the Intelligence Committee and the Foreign Relations Committee …"
The ostensible concept of the ad is decorated veteran (Kerry) versus chicken hawk (Bush). But this ad isn't really directed at Bush; it's a dagger pitched at Howard Dean, the Democratic front-runner, whom Kerry will probably have to beat in New Hampshire to get a shot at the big guy in November. The more subtle message it conveys is that while Kerry has the military and national security credentials to take on Bush, Gov. Dean—who avoided service in Vietnam with the help of a back injury that didn't prevent him from doing some heavy skiing in Aspen, and has no background in military or foreign policy matters—cannot.
This is a well-made, effective ad with one big problem. If you're looking for someone whose authentic military costume and impeccable national security credentials put him in a good position to challenge Bush on Iraq, Kerry's a reasonable choice. But Gen. Wesley Clark is a much better one.
From: William Saletan
To: Jacob Weisberg
What strikes me about this ad is what's missing. John Edwards' latest ads start out with Edwards talking. Joe Lieberman's consist entirely of Lieberman talking. Ditto for Howard Dean. Kerry's previous ads showed him talking, as well. But in this ad, we don't see him talking until the end, and he delivers no more than the "I approved this message" line required by law. At that point, it becomes clear why. You can't sell what you ain't got.
I hate to be such a grouch about Kerry. He's done a lot of good work as a senator. He's had moments of tremendous bravery in the political arena as well as in war. He's often accused of duplicity when he's really just trying to be honest and thoughtful about the nuances of a difficult issue. But the guy just doesn't connect. If you want to sell him, you can't let him do the talking. You have to do it for him.
That's what this ad does. It reviews his career: his heroism in Vietnam, his expertise in national security and foreign affairs, his knowledge of tax and health care policy. It's a strong list. But people don't vote for a list. An ad is a chance to show them the candidate. In this case, they see the candidate in snippets but can't hear him. As you note, most of what they see is a senator gesturing in hearings. You could imagine similar footage of Edwards addressing a jury. He's doing something, but it's just a guy in a suit, talking.
What baffles me is the opening shot of Bush in military gear. I agree that the "Mission Accomplished" banner is now instantly embarrassing to the White House. But I don't think the same is true of Bush in the flight suit. The Dukakis tank ad worked because Dukakis looked ridiculous in the outfit immediately, and the ridiculous footage went on and on while the ad recounted all the military programs Dukakis had opposed. In this ad, Bush appears in the flight suit only briefly at the beginning, and he looks pretty swashbuckling, if you ask me. I'm tempted to conclude that Kerry's team chose this footage not to make Bush look ridiculous but to make him look too tough for Dean.
Kerry's five seconds at the end are painful to behold. His head sways from side to side as he lumbers toward the camera. His eyes are glazed. What he's looking at or thinking, I have no idea. The background—a corner of what appears to be a windowless, brick-walled room—leaves the impression that Kerry is trapped in some underground bunker where a squad of political consultants is forcing him to retake his line again and again. His voice is oddly high and soft, suggesting that something bad is happening to him, but he doesn't quite understand what. I don't want to vote for this man. I want to rescue him.

Have you obtained a short-stay 'Schengen' visa over the past 5 years, or would you like to make your voice heard on how these visas are issued? The European Commission is reviewing the procedures for issuing 'Schengen' visas and would like to hear your views on them. The idea is to modernise the current visa policy and your input via this public consultation will help to make the right changes.
The situation regarding migration and security in Europe has fundamentally changed during the past few years. The visa process is a key tool to prevent risks of irregular migration and security risks to the European Union. At the same time, visa policy fosters economic growth and cultural exchange by facilitating the process for travellers to the EU who comply with the legal entry criteria, such as business people, tourists, students and young people. It is being considered whether the EU's policy on visas still strikes the right balance between these objectives and how it can be changed to address current challenges in terms of migration and mobility, including how visa policy could be used in the EU's relationship with third countries. That is why the Commission wants to hear from the main 'users' of the common visa policy: individuals, interest groups, advocacy groups, think tanks and professional organisations. The Commission wants to hear from as broad a range of users as possible, as it is important to get views and input from all stakeholders.
You can find the entry page to the questionnaire here (available until 2nd of February):https://ec.europa.eu/info/consultations/modernising-eus-common-visa-policy_en

MIDS Technology
Immunoassay tests are commonly used to diagnose a whole host of disease / medical conditions. In general the technology behind them relies on the manipulation of magnetic nanoparticles as analyte labels, as they are easy to manipulate magnetically, moving them through the assay process and concentrating them in a detection area. These particles have the unique property of being super-paramagnetic; they are only magnetic when placed in a very strong magnetic field (bias field), which is critical to their success as labels for analyte detection. These analytes/nanoparticles are usually captured and immobilised in a line, typically on a nitrocellulose strip or on a microfluidic strip deposition area.
Conventional assays detect and measure these analytes on their capture line or trap areas using optical instruments to measure reflectance, contrast, colour change or fluorescence emitted from the nanoparticle coating. However, as the analyte in biological fluids travels through the whole thickness of the test strip a high percentage (over 70%) of these analytes are not detected by the optical measuring device, resulting in poor accuracy, especially in POC devices where optical instrument quality is limited by cost and/or size.
While other devices are limited to imperfect optical detection, MIDS also detects magnetically, to a whole new level of accuracy: Like other devices, the MIDS patented technology not only uses a cost effective, bespoke sensor to measure optically, but crucially also utilises miniaturised highly sensitive custom built "Hall Effect" magnetic sensors embedded within a test strip as a Lab-On-Chip device. Hall Effect sensors are commonplace; to be found in virtually every electronic device from an alarm clock to a zip drive. They sense low levels of magnetic signature from magnetic device components. Immunoassay nanoparticles are paramagnetic, albeit on a much smaller scale: only in an adequately strong magnetic field will they behave magnetically.
The MIDS patented technology can separate the relatively large ambient magnetic field needed to induce the paramagnetic effect in the particles from the tiny, nano-Tesla paramagnetic signature of the particles themselves. A precisely located bespoke Hall effect sensor is then used to detect these tiny passing paramagnetic signatures.
Prior work undertaken by members of our technical team has successfully evidenced that a very low concentration of nanoparticles (less than 40nm size) in a 1% solution can be detected. This was achieved by using specially fabricated, packaged (the sensor being bonded within a protective resin) ultra-high sensitivity Hall effect sensors and creating a relatively strong external magnetic field (external bias field) which interacts with displaced magnetic nanoparticles during the immunoassay test. These fully packaged devices have successfully demonstrated that that we can detect the disturbance to this external bias magnetic field caused by 40nm particles allowing detection of magnetic fields at a few nano-Tesla levels. The result is a direct measurement of levels of antibodies present in the sample by measuring the magnetic signal of the immunoassay particles, rather than solely measuring the optical intensity of an aggregated group of particles, most of which are not detected. Work to date has been carried out on a relatively unsophisticated bench set up and with packaged sensors not optimally located at the detection site. As we optimize the MIDS technology we aim to achieve detection down to nanoparticles of 10nm; the result is expected to be outstanding accuracy in an easy to use POC test strip.
Our technology offers significant innovations:
The highest performing cardiac biomarker POC devices have a coefficient of variance in the 10% range at the 99th percentile (CV), although in reality they are unable to detect very low biomarker levels. By example, the POC device claiming to be the only one which conforms to tightened FDA guidance claims the device only achieves this CV at a detection of 36 ng /L. We believe our ability to measure the nano-Tesla paramagnetic signature of the particles themselves, when applied for example to HS cTn assays, will achieve > 5% CV on assays down to 2 ng cTn /l. Accuracy on this level matches state of the art central laboratory analyzers.
Our measurement technique should also require very low volumes of fluid sample, typically less than 5 μL (one small drop) for a single biomarker test using a finger stick blood sample on a microfluidic test strip for cTn- an industry leading low volume. This untreated finger stick sample innovation is material: competitor POC devices require, as a minimum, several times this whole blood volume. Blood volumes required by competitors are typically 100 – 200 µl, and can be as high as 2 ml (2000 µl). Many competitor blood samples also require pre-treatment (Heparain, EDTA). Our ability to use a very small & untreated sample allows us to contain an assay on a single easy to use lab-on chip strip; after the first touch of finger stick blood to the microfluidic strip the test is entirely automated.
We also expect to produce a quantitative cTn result much faster than any other POC device – within three minutes and a quantitative, multiplexed test, again from a single finger stick sample, over a panel of 3 Cardiac biomarkers on a single test strip, in less than 8 minutes.
A successful development of MIDS Cardiac™ would validate the MIDS technology. We believe that MIDS can be applied to virtually any immunoassay test using magnetic nanoparticles, opening up enormous possibilities – a single device supporting multiple assay types on specific test strips of the same platform design.

This is one cool cake!
Handmade Charlotte shows us how to make this creative cake. Sandra Denneler has simplified the process to make it easier on the rest of us. She recommends using pound cake rather than regular since it will have fewer air bubbles.
You will be baking four cakes, two will be for the tie-dye portion that will be cut with the peace sign. The cookie cutter can be bought at cheapcookiecutters.com. You will need to freeze this portion so it doesn't dry out when baked in the other cake. Another note is when doing the tie-dye, don't use red when using yellow or blue. Sounds like it washes the colors out and ruins the tie-dye affect. Also, you will get richer colors using gel instead of liquid coloring.
Of course you can always use one color and whatever cookie cutter that you have on hand.

Call to Action – ICD-10 Grace Period
You can contact Congress quickly and easily using this tool that creates a letter to be emailed to your local representatives. Read the sample letter below.
Please Note: This important action only takes about one minute to do. We have already prepared the template, and the system selects your representatives based on the address data you enter. If you don't see a text box below, refresh your page and make sure you have the latest version of Java installed.
Sample Letter:
As we approach the October 1, 2015 implementation date of the International Classification of Diseases, Clinical Modification, 10th Revision (ICD-10), I am writing to express my continued concern over the readiness of our healthcare system to transition to this new coding system.
While many participants in our system have invested considerable time and resources to prepare for this transition, the threat of significant disruption remains. Even some of the most enthusiastic backers of ICD-10 implementation publicly acknowledge that implementation will lead to reduced productivity and technical glitches that may severely impact health care operations across all providers and payers. Congress and the Administration should take steps to mitigate the impact that such disruptions will have on health care systems and our patients.
We have seen other HIPAA mandated changes, such as the National Provider Identifier (NPI) and the upgrade to Version 5010 transaction standards, cause disruptions. These changes, which were significantly less complex than ICD-10 transition, resulted in significant claims processing disruptions that caused physicians to go unpaid for weeks and sometimes months. Such disruptions negatively impact patients' access to care.
ICD-10 will require coding to a much greater level of specificity than is required under the current ICD-9 system. Because proficiency with this new system will require experience that comes only by doing, we urge you to support legislative efforts that result in establishing a two-year grace period during which physicians will not be penalized for errors, mistakes and or malfunctions related to adjusting to new ICD-10 coding specifications.
I appreciate your attention to this serious matter and hope that you will work with your colleagues in Congress and the Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services to ensure that the necessary preparations to mitigate these threats are undertaken immediately.

Sunday's thrilling Super Bowl between the Baltimore Ravens and the San Francisco 49ers received the highest overnight rating ever for a Super Bowl.
According to Nielsen, the Super Bowl had an overnight rating of 48.1/71, which means nearly half of all households in the country saw Baltimore defeat San Francisco 34-31 to win the franchise's second Super Bowl title.
The rating, though, excludes the period from 8:45-9:15 PM EST, which was when the power outage occurred that left CBS broadcasters scrambling.
The highest-rated Super Bowl had been Fox's telecast of Green Bay versus Pittsburgh in 2011, which received a 47.9/71 overnight rating. Last year's Super Bowl between the New York Giants and the New England Patriots received at 47.8/71 overnight rating and was the most-watched television program ever with an audience of 111.3 million.

Chlorine Benefits
Through the following applications, chlorine chemistry contributes to the everyday life of Canadian consumers:
Drinking water disinfection
The vast majority of Canadian water systems use chlorine to help provide safe drinking water and return properly treated wastewater to the environment, thereby avoiding the public health risks associated with the consumption or dissemination of pathogen-containing water that spreads disease, and the personal loss and costs of treating those diseases. To illustrate, contamination of the water supply in Walkerton, Ontario by E. coli in 2000 caused seven deaths, made 2,000 people ill, and imposed costs on the community that amounted to about $45 million. The stated benefits of disinfection apply regardless of the specific technology used in the disinfection process. However, the public benefits specifically from chlorine chemistry in water treatment because it is more cost effective than alternative disinfection techniques. In addition, only chlorine-based disinfectants prevent microbial re-growth and help protect treated water as it journeys from the treatment plant to the tap.
Excerpted from "The Benefits of Chlorine Chemistry in Water Treatment" by Whitfield & Associates, December 2008
Recreational water disinfection
Chlorine-based pool and spa chemicals are essential to keeping recreational waters safe and healthy. Proper chlorination helps control harmful microorganisms in recreational waters that can cause diarrhea, ear infections and skin rashes, including swimmer's ear and athlete's foot. Kiddie pools are notorious for bathroom-related "accidents." Chlorine pool disinfectants help sanitize pool water in the wake of kiddie accidents, restoring parents' peace of mind.
Household disinfection
Consumers benefit from chlorine chemistry in their use of bleaches and disinfectants by having access to low cost products that satisfy their needs in a wide variety of applications. Chlorine-based disinfectants are a key ally in the battle against the spread of colds, flu and other infectious illnesses on the home front and in schools, and healthcare and daycare environments. Germs can live on hard surfaces such as door knobs and children's toys for hours, providing opportunities for infection by hand contact. Chlorine also guards against Salmonella and other pathogens in the kitchen. Many familiar and cost-effective brand name cleaners and disinfectants depend on the sanitizing power of chlorine. Alternatives to chlorine-based products and processes are available in all these applications, but consumers overwhelmingly prefer the chlorine-based ones where they are available.
Excerpted from "The Benefits of Chlorine Chemistry in Bleaches and Disinfectants" by Whitfield & Associates, December 2007
Other key uses include
Pharmaceutical products
More than 93% of top-selling Canadian pharmaceuticals are made with chlorine chemistry. The use of pharmaceuticals can be a critical factor in reducing total health care costs as well as improving the quality of life for those who use them. See more…
Excerpted from "TheBenefits of Chlorine Chemistry in Pharmaceuticals"by Global Insight, December 2006
Silicon-based products
Chlorine chemistry is central to the production of the highly purified silicon that is required for the manufacture of silicon-based integrated circuits and solar cells, silicone-based products, glass optical fibers, and high purity fumed silica. No chlorine-free processes have yet been developed that can produce silicon of the required purity, so the chlorine industry provides consumers with valuable products.

Polyvinyl chloride
Polyvinyl chloride, or PVC, is a versatile plastic used in applications ranging from window frames to water pipes for infrastructure renewal.

"Space is big. Really big." So begins The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. But like the void of space, there is a void in strategic space games. None have provided the bigness, that focus on the highest levels of grand strategy, that science-fiction epics in print, film, and television have long delivered. So, to the traditional "4-X" strategy game of eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate, we are adding an important new fifth "X," eXperience. (Yep, it's a 5-X game!) Through game devices adding character, story, and plot to familiar strategy play mechanics, MOO3 will deliver the grandeur and richness of an epic space opera — not in the guise of a traditional book, movie, or TV show, but presented in the medium of a game experience.
In MOO3, players assume the biggest role ever. No longer do players merely represent petty interplanetary dictators. In MOO3, players represent the controlling power behind an entire galactic civilization. The dictators, presidents, councils, and overlords that come and go are merely a player's pawns. One must use these governments and their leaders to secure the destiny of one's civilization and to manipulate its policies of freedom and oppression in both foreign and domestic arenas. It is not enough to be an able economist or a great captain to succeed in Master of Orion 3; considerable political, administrative, and espionage skills must be applied to craft your civilization's glorious chapter in the Annals of Time and Space.
Although MOO3 is a turn-based game and a player can do anything, he can't do everything. Only a limited amount of "Imperial Focus" is available to each player each turn, so players must manage the ultimate resource — their own direct involvement! Therefore, as players build empires, retaining able administrators becomes more important (as does watching their loyalty and ambition!). Growing an empire means growing a bureaucracy and citizens can resort to voting with their feet or their pitchforks if they're not properly led.
So it is up to players to provide direction and focus to drive their civilization to its goals. Left to its own devices, a civilization will slouch forward, but when properly led by a player, their destiny will be forever written in the stars...

|NEW P1849 (CIS/SC) IEEE Draft Standard for XES - eXtensible Event Stream - For Achieving Interoperability in Event Logs and Event Streams
was approved as a new standard by the IEEE-SA Standards Board on 22 September 2016. A copy of the document will be forwarded to the Standards Publications Department. The editor assigned to work on the project will contact the XES WG.
To have the changes that resulted from the comments of the XES ballot approved, a recirculation was required for the XES Standard Proposal (Revision 13, D03). This recirculation has now ended, the changes were approved, and no new comments were received. As a result, this version of XES has now been approved by the balloting group.
The next step is to have this version accepted by the IEEE RevCom.
ProM 6.6 is the successor of ProM 6.5.1, which was released in 2015. Like ProM 6.5.1, there will be no updates to packages in the ProM 6.6 release. As such, this is an immutable release which can hence be used in your publications. If it works today in ProM 6.6, it will work exactly the same tomorrow. Note that for ProM Lite this does not hold, as tomorrow it may work better. Like ProM Lite 1.1, ProM 6.6 contains improvements to the core of ProM. See https://svn.win.tue.nl/trac/prom/wiki/ProM66 for the details. Furthermore, many packages have also been improved. See https://svn.win.tue.nl/trac/prom/wiki/ProM66/ChangeLogs for details.
Both ProM Lite 1.1 and ProM 6.6 can now be downloaded from http://www.promtools.org/ (note that we're still working on the Mac bundles, they will follow shortly).

Open Thread: Everything You're Reading, Watching, Listening To and Looking At
This is your place to talk about the TV, movies, music, books and art that are thoroughly entertaining you.
Depending on your age, Nickelodeon means different things to different people. For so many 30- and 40-somethings, what immediately comes to mind when you ask them what shows were on during their childhood is You Can't Do That On Television.
You Can't Do That On Television debuted the same year I did, 1979, and was produced until 1990, though reruns were played on Nickelodeon into the mid-'90s. If you're not familiar with the show, first of all, congratulations on your recent ability to drink legally and/or welcome to North America, and second, it was a sketch-comedy show with a small cast of kids and teens and two adults who played various parts. They're the reason Nickelodeon is associated with green slime—anyone who said "I don't know" on the set would be doused with it from above—and saying "water" meant getting water poured on your head, because why not? It was actually pretty edgy and irreverent for a kids' show; I think it's the first place I heard the word "abortion," during one of their recurring firing-squad sketches. (Seriously.)
I used to remember You Can't Do That On Television quite enthusiastically. I started watching it when I was very young—probably because I have a sister 12 years older—and I so clearly recall many of the early and mid-'80s episodes. But it's that clear recollection that started getting me thinking about some of the truly terrible jokes on the show.
I mean, yes, that was kind of their thing: knowingly bad jokes. But I'm not talking about jokes that are just stupid. I'm talking about body-shaming jokes hurled at two of the main cast members, Christine and Lisa, in what seems like almost every episode.
You Can't Do That On Television never claimed to be politically correct—quite the opposite, if anything. But in retrospect, it seems so hugely effed up that so many of us were watching and loving a show that regularly picked on young women for being fat.
And they weren't even fat! I know that may not seem relevant in the grand scheme of fat-shaming, but I can definitely remember believing, as a very young child, that they were fat and that it was bad to be fat, because it was a running theme: Christine and Lisa are fat, and being fat is something you tease people about. I can't help but wonder if it screwed up a few perspectives.
You can find a lot of full episodes of You Can't Do That On Television on YouTube these days, and I've cued up 10 of them below to some of the fat jokes that stood out to me.
1. Quite often, it was Christine and Lisa throwing the body insults at each other. In this first one, Lisa makes a quick dig at Christine by comparing her to a certain large animal.
2. Ah, the locker jokes. You could always count on a size dig during this segment of the show. Here, Christine tells Lisa she has a future in the circus as... guess!
3. Christine is a super-supportive friend when Lisa tells her that food commercials make her want to eat.
4. A twofer! After Alasdair makes a joke about the size of Lisa's butt, Lisa tells Christine everyone's expecting her to gain weight. (This one's supposed to be cued up to 21:29 but it's acting a bit wonky.)
5. The adults got in on it, too.
6. Here, Alasdair and Kevin gang up on Lisa and Christine, and ultimately, the "fat" girls are pitted against thin Vanessa.
7. This episode is about bullying, ironically, but mostly the stereotypical physical kind. I'm not sure who they were trying to portray as the bully in this sketch: Alasdair for being rude, or Christine for getting her way and retaliating.
8. Start 'em on the fat-shaming young!
9. An episode about space? A weight vs. weightlessness joke was inevitable.
10. It was rare, but the body-shaming went both ways sometimes. Here, Christine teases Alasdair about being too thin. Of course, this quickly turns into a joke about her being too fat.
Meanness, in general, was pretty common on You Can't Do That On Television. As much as I enjoyed it back then and remember it semi-fondly, I'd like to think that a similarly smart kids' show could be produced today without making being a dick seem cool and normal.
Possible? I don't know.

Everyone loves a bargain and wants to get the best deal possible. So, here are our top ten tips to save on your travel insurance.
- Shop around - You'll be amazed at how much travel insurance quotes can vary. Offers by travel agents or airlines usually have commissions added on. In fact, you can save up to 60% by shopping around, so it pays to buy your travel insurance direct. Doing your comparison online will allow you to compare loads of travel insurance quotes in seconds. The idea is to choose the best cover for your needs at the best premium. Remember that the cheapest is not always the best policy for your trip.
- Consider how often you travel - If you travel a few times per year, you could save by purchasing an annual multi-trip policy rather than purchasing a policy each time you take off.
- Consider the destination - There are two elements to this. Firstly, some insurers will ask you to nominate the region you are spending the most amount of time, where as others will ask you to nominate the furthest region. If you are travelling to multiple destinations and spending less time in a destination that falls in a far away region, you can make significant savings by investigating this. Secondly, destination could determine your level of cover. Taking out insurance with unlimited medical cover is vital if visiting places such as the USA and many European countries, where medical care is expensive. For other destinations, a lower level of cover might be sufficient.
- Be upfront and honest - Be sure to provide accurate information to the insurance company, including disclosing any pre-existing medical conditions. Otherwise they may refuse or void an arising claim.
- Combine policies - If travelling with your family or a companion, a joint
policy is often cheaper than purchasing separately.
- Discounts - Some insurers offer loyalty discounts for pre-existing members. Also, check whether your employer has a group deal with an insurance company as you may be entitled to a favourable rate through them. Group discounts usually apply for 10 or more travellers.
- Increase your excess - Most insurers allow you to lower your premium by opting to pay higher excess in the instance that you need to make a claim.
- Insure as early as possible - Take out your insurance when you first pay for your travel, so that you have immediate cancellation cover.
- Don't under insure - Even most cheap travel insurance policies will cover the cost of medical treatment. But remember you'll pay heavily if you have to claim as a result of an activity that your policy doesn't cover.
Take advantage of credit card travel insurance - As a cardholder, you may be entitled to a certain level of cover if you pay for your trip with your credit card. But be careful as this not likely to be sufficient cover, but you could always use it as a top up to another policy.
If you're looking for cheap travel insurance take a look at our guide on buying travel insurance online to see how much you can save.

In April Helen returned the sketchbook with some interesting additions. She's added some birds to my last page which fit effectively with the glimpses of landscape that can be seen through the gaps in the page.On the next page she made this great face themed collage.
On the next page there's a vibrant red and yellow pattern page and a window with window box revealing a bird on the next page. I like the way we're cutting through pages to reveal further images on other pages. The sketchbook circle craze for stamping is evident in the leaves and flowers in the window box.
The window works equally effectively looking from the other side. I love the next page with the bird transfer and the various fragments of collage and stamping in my favourite colours.
The final double pages continued the printed and stamped approach and one of them (the left hand one) had some folded pieces that opened.
My first additions for April were to work onto the right hand page with some stamping and drawing, trying to pick up on the circles from the page and develop them further.
My next page explored something I've been meaning to try out for a while – representing a collection on a page using a frame or box. I used paper for this but I've since thought I might try corrugated card to get nearer to the box in a museum case feel that I's been aiming for.
I used collage materials from old books, magazines, leaflets and magazines as well as some stamping. They're rather random in choice and I think either having a theme or choosing things that contrast would be better. The facing page has a collage based landscape with some drawing onto it.
My final page was some Gelli plate printing onto the page of a vintage book with the potential for Helen to work onto maybe.
