Renting a passenger van this summer and go on holiday in a group might be saving you lots of money. Money that you can spend on other, more important things. There are many costs that we need to consider when we are planning our vacation, and we need to save where we can. Here is how and why you can save when you are going on holiday in a group and hiring a passenger van.
Save on petrol
First of all, if you are going in a group, and everyone is giving an amount of money for petrol, you don't need to pay for the petrol or fuel yourself. Saving lots of money.
Think what will a trip on your own cost you, just in paying the fuel. Now, divided by the amount of people that are now going with … Read the rest
What's the best auto insurance company in the business? That depends on who you ask and what the criteria are. If you're asking car insurance customers, they will most likely be voicing their opinion based on cost, customer service, and claims service. If you're talking with someone in the financial services industry, they will probably rate insurance companies based on their financial strength and future outlook. Also visit our top article here. Because the criteria are so subjective. It's really difficult to come up with a definitive answer.
Nonetheless, we have surveyed some auto insurance review websites that ask their readers to vote on their insurance companies. We have compiled the results, crunched the numbers, and added the financial strength ratings from A.M. Best to come up with our list. Based on our research the top 10 best auto insurance … Read the rest
If you're in the market for cheap auto insurance coverage, you're not alone. More than ever people are looking for ways to save a few dollars and stretch their budgets further. After reading this visit our top article here. You can do that with your auto insurance by knowing how insurance works and applying some very simple principles. We've listed below a handful of helpful tips that should point you in the direction of less expensive coverage.
Consider Only Liability
The best way to keep the cost of your car insurance down is to consider getting only a minimum liability policy. This type of policy is the absolute cheapest because it doesn't pay for actual damage to your car. It only pays for bodily injury and property damage. But if you're driving an older vehicle with a resale value not … Read the rest
Most of us have loaned our cars to friends or relatives at one time or another. For the occasional run to the store or the drive to and from work, we typically don't think it's too big a deal. But that's not necessarily the case. The laws in most US states make car owners liable to some degree for the actions of anyone to whom they loan their vehicle — even if that person has his vehicle and insurance policy!
For just a moment, consider the possibility of loaning your car to your brother who is visiting for a couple of weeks. Assuming he has his car insurance policy, you figure it will cover him completely if he's in a crash. Then let's assume your brother has an accident, and you find out he only has a cheap car insurance … Read the rest
Up to this point, whatever is left of the world got all the great sprinter for sale, while American vans floundered in average quality, your own frequently moving on the same fundamental frame they appeared back in the 70s. They were great in their lifted JDM radiance, and neither would ever have been sold in the States. They additionally helped me a great deal to remember the van I was driving: the 2015 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 4×4. The Sprinter is without any assistance in charge of the van renaissance we've found in the U.S. the previous 15 years, and in four-by-four mold it's one of the coolest and now a standout amongst the most skilled sprinter for sale vans again and again.… Read the rest

You took a test drive and jumped into the deal but what about your next van? Well, the following are just a few additional features you may want to keep an eye out for when purchasing a new van.
The Parking Sensors
One of the top features to look for when buying a new Mercedes Benz Sprinter has to be parking sensors.

When you have sensors, it makes things a lot easier. Also visit this link http://www.bmwroadsterhomecoming.com/improving-your-van-driving-experience/ for more … Read the rest
A refrigerated van can be one of the best types of vans to buy today and even though many wouldn't agree it can be. Now, let's be honest, unless you are a professional haulage company, transporter or delivery driver, you aren't going to need refrigerated transport. However, if you are a delivery driver or want to get into the transportation business, you may want to consider a refrigerated van. What is a refrigerated van and what are the advantages of using one?
Controlled Temperature
When you are looking for refrigerated vans for sale, you should note that these are specialized modes of transportation. The reason why is because the actual loading and holding areas of the van have the ability to control the temperature. Also visit our top article here. Usually refrigerated vans are used to transport certain foods … Read the rest

Buying a cargo van for sale for the express purpose of using it to go camping can be a great idea. Now, converting a van just for camping may seem a bit strange but actually it's perfect. It allows you to personalize your vehicle however you like without putting in too much time or effort. It also allows you the ability to have a luxury form of camping which might appeal to most of the family. If you love camping then converting your old van can be perfect and it's so simple to do; so how can you start the process?

i wanna be a drag queen
encontré mi drag-name!
here tis:
sí, soy una chica, pero mejor que yo para explicarlo, está la wikipedia:
"A drag queen is a man who dresses, and often acts, like a caricature woman for the purpose of entertaining.(...) Generally drag queens are males who dress and act in a female gender role, often exaggerating certain characteristics (such as make-up and eyelashes) for comic, dramatic or satirical effect. Other drag performers include drag kings, who are women who perform in male roles, faux queens, who are women who dress in an exaggerated style to emulate drag queens and faux kings, who are men who dress to impersonate drag kings.The term drag queen usually refers to people who dress in drag for the purpose of performing, whether singing or lip-synching, dancing, participating in events, or at venues such as cabarets anddiscotheques. In the United Kingdom, alongside traditional drag work such as shows and performances, many drag queens engage in "mix-and-mingle" or hosting work at night clubs or at private parties and events. Drag is a part of Western gay culture."

"Creation of a dynamic world community
in which the peoples of every nation
will be able to realize their potentialities for peace."
- Henry Morgenthau, Opening Address
Bretton Woods Conference (July, 1944)
Ours is a future to innovate. Knowledge Societies - more a function of human beings than technological innovation – should unleash the capabilities of imagination, insight and interaction. We need to convert current fiscal and political threats to opportunities; but how?
In July 1944, in the midst of the last great war, world leaders abandoned gold as a currency in the hopes it would create a less combative world stage. Today, a global knowledge commonwealth is replacing the world of nations. We are dependent upon the knowledge and success of others across organizational and cultural boundaries. The new currency of intellectual capital – properly leveraged through human, relationship and structural capital – is an asset of abundance, not scarcity. Globalization demands new rules. Old rules no longer apply; new ones are being innovated.
Leadership in the Knowledge Economy is different from the industrial or even information economies. It is an economy in which the innovation capacity of every human being, enterprise and nation is fully engaged. It is an economy in which culture and heritage are respected, commonalities are more important than differences, and aspirations can be shared. It requires a fundamental new mindset and common language to harness capabilities across a global, networked world.
The Concept of Knowledge Innovation (KI) is action with understanding and purpose – the creation, evolution and application of knowledge for the success of an enterprise, the vitality of a nation's economy, and the advancement of society. The Concept-in-Practice is a Knowledge Innovation Zone (KIZ) - a geographic, industry or virtual space in which knowledge flows from the point of origin to optimal need or use.
Until the past century, distance and communication made the movement of goods and knowledge arduous. Knowledge moved along trade routes - from the Appian Way to the Silk Road. Today, trade routes morph into trade 'nodes'- or zones of innovation. Nurturing and managing the instantaneous flow of knowledge in these market spaces – Digital Cities, Internet Villages, and Knowledge Corridors – requires innovation strategy to replace traditional business planning practices.
BusinessWeek chief economist writes about 'innovation economics'; and G7 discussions have expanded to G20. Economists and business leaders globally are coming to agreement: Innovation is the best way to build a future within which we all thrive. After centuries of war punctuated by uneasy peace, Europeans formed the European Union – a mechanism to erase old differences leading to ever more efficient wars. They established a common currency; and ushered the dawn of collaborative advantage. The Middle East is doing the same.
The United Nations was created to maintain political stability around the world. The World Bank and IMF were created after World War II to ensure the movement of financial capital. Today we need similar infrastructure for the worldwide flow of intellectual capital. With the recent collapse of old structures, we should architect new rule-sets to guide our collaborative innovation. We need a Bretton Woods for the Knowledge Economy - purposed to create a global innovation platform for peace and the World Trade of Ideas. History will document our success…

The Art Association of Jacksonville boasts three permanent collections. In 1985 William Allen, formerly of Waverly and now of California, and a graduate of Illinois College, gave to The Art Association of Jacksonville his deceased wife's collection of antique dolls as a memorial to her.
She was a Jacksonville woman (Miriam Cowgur) and a graduate of MacMurray College. His gift also included the cases now installed in the upstairs hall where most of the dolls are on exhibit.
Another collection is of Mediterranean artifacts bequeathed in 1988 by Charles Prentice Thompson of New York, formerly of Jacksonville. A graduate of Yale University School of Architecture, Mr. Thompson gained world renown as a Classic architect and spent many years studying and working in Rome. Among his many achievements, in addition to the Aristole Onassis residence in New York, were the residence of Ambassador Clare Booth Luce in Rome and consulates and embassies in Venice, Naples, Addis Ababa, Tehran, Damascus, Kabul, Tripoli and Aden. His interest in the classical architecture of Greece and Rome led to his collection of a few exceptional artifacts prior to his death in December 1987. On display at the David Strawn Art Gallery are a Greek Krater circa 500 B.C., an Etruscan black terra cotta sarcophagus cover with a semi-reclining female figure circa 500 B.C., and a lead coffin end, Tyre, Late Roman. The sale of other collection pieces benefited the Gallery. Other Mediterranean artifacts, not currently on display, are a ridged ceramic jar and nine small clay oil lamps from Pompeii given by Mr. and Mrs. Burdette Kenner of Jacksonville in 1983.
The third collection is the Mississippian Indian Pottery Collection the history of which is available in brochure form at the David Strawn Art Gallery.
Arrangements for tours of the collections can be made at our E mail address or at 217-243-9390.

Dist. 26 mulls dropping neighborhood schools for grade-level centers
District 26 officials have answered 360 written questions about grade-center schools, but questions still linger for some parents.
"The school board is only looking at one option," said Bobbi Viegas-Miller, who prefers the Mount Prospect district retain its two neighborhood schools instead of turning one into a pre-kindergarten-second-grade center and housing third- through fifth-graders at the other.
"Like me, a lot of parents moved to the area because of the neighborhood schools," she added. "I live three blocks from Indian Grove and my kids might not go there."
River Trails Elementary District 26 spent $18,000 to hire consultant James H. Warren to study whether switching to grade-center schools would be advantageous for the district. Warren will make his report to the school board on Feb. 16.
No decision will be made at that meeting, said Superintendent Dane Delli.
District 26's two elementary schools are Euclid and Indian Grove. River Trails, which wouldn't be affected, is the only middle school.
About half of Euclid's student body is Hispanic compared to less than 10 percent of Indian Grove's students.
The move to grade-center schools would be a financial one, not because of low test scores at Euclid, Delli said.
"Euclid is not the problem, which is what some people think because the schools have two different racial and social makeups," Delli said. "We would not shortchange Euclid and we don't spend more resources there. There are some perceptions that Euclid has low test scores but that's not the case."
In 2007 all three schools met the annual yearly progress standards. In 2008, Euclid and River Trails didn't make AYP because of the reading scores of some subgroups. In 2009, all three schools again made AYP, Delli said.
Delli won't express his own opinion until the study is complete. He said there are pros and cons to both systems.
"Right now we have second grade teachers and second grade curriculums at Euclid and Indian Grove," he said. "There is research that says combining everyone together in one building helps instruction."
Viegas-Miller, meanwhile, argues there are studies that say grade-centered schools can cause delinquent behavior and lower grades. She was one of more than 150 parents who attended a District 26 school board meeting on Monday.
To protest the move, she and some other parents started better26.org and a petition drive that has 600 signatures.
Jeff Bradley, president of the District 26 school board, said his board doesn't know much about the financials yet.
"This is not a done deal and I don't know a single person on the board who has made up (his or her) mind," Bradley said. "We all want to see the final report. As a school board we would be remiss if we didn't discuss this."
District 26 has about 2,500 students and about 250 full- and part-time staff members.
Most elementary districts in the area use neighborhood schools, including Arlington Heights District 25, Mount Prospect District 57 and Des Plaines District 62.
The Wheeling Township Elementary District 21 school board may talk about switching to grade-center schools in the next couple of years to save money, say District 21 officials.

A Visual Haiku
This assignment is intended to encourage approaches to the seeing and interpretation of subject matter with as little visual information as possible. It is a technique that can be used not only in your own backyard, but while traveling too. This may sound ridiculous, but have you ever felt overwhelmed arriving at a beautiful location, and then not knowing what to photograph? Then consider this.
There is a method of composition and image construction commonly known in the world of visual art as working subtractively. Think of how other visual artists — like a painter — start with nothing, and through the act of adding subject matter and use of the media itself, form it into an image. Contrarily, photographers typically start with everything, and need to be selective about what to put in the frame. The challenge we need to resolve is a matter of reducing the subject matter down to more simple forms, to capture the essence of moment. To produce images with as little as two or three major elements of design.
If we were to make it a priority to create photographic compositions that are analogous to composing a form of Japanese poetry know as Haiku, then the potential of reducing the subject matter, and producing idea driven work is increased. Think of what you do with the camera as not merely a process of recording facts. Revealing a point of view on the facts is what we are in pursuit of. As a visual artist it is far more compelling to ask questions with images, instead of providing answers.
Haiku is a minimalist form of poetry. The writer has 17 or fewer syllables through which to convey an experience. Writing haiku is a form of meditation that begins with the recognition of something occurring in the everyday. Here's a translation of a Japanese haiku master, Issa. In English it has nine syllables.
reed warblers
sing the great river
Definition of Haiku
• The content of haiku is typically focused on lyrical moments of everyday life.
• The subject matter can be rooted in the experience of other sensory experiences to inform its visual appearance, such as hearing, taste, touching, smelling, and seeing.
• The subject matter is traditionally focused on the natural world, but do not let this restrict you to photographing what you want. The subject matter can be anything. Haiku was created several centuries ago by a monk named Basho, who lived in and among the elements of the natural world everyday — what we have access to today in contemporary culture flies in the face of the original intent of haiku.

What do we do with Olsen if we keep Stammen and Detwiler? Bullpen?
I think the bullpen could be a good spot for him. He can take DCabs place.
Technically I think they belong to me according to the registration agreement that you all signed off on.As if I really cared one way or the other.
It's just one game, and it's not even over yet, but as far as I'm concerned, for tonight, Stammen deserves all the hyperbole sportsfan can buy.
Not like Nick there. Looking at strike 3 is not him, usually.
what does that mean?
That awful MASN commercial
don't jinx him. still 3 innings to go.
And let's just remember, it's just the Pirates.
Zimm is ice cold.
Still, can you imagine where this game would be if Cabrera had been pitching?
Does anyone know if there's a medical condition that makes you orgasm whenever you hear a loud crack? That could explain a lot of things.
are stats required again?
wtf! Are you talking about yourself?

NTSB issues update on Staten Island ferry investigation
The National Transportation Safety Board has issued an update on its investigation of the May 8 accident involving the Staten Island ferry Andrew J. Barberi. It notes that certain propulsion control components on one of the ferry's propulsion unit were identified as possibly defective.

Joss Stone Tickets and Concert Dates
Hailing from Devon, England, pop star Joss Stone was just 16 when her career her first album, The Soul Sessions was released in 2003. Initially a back-up singer for Britney Spears, a chance audition in New York City landed her her first solo record deal. Joss got her first hit single in early 2004, with the funky Fell in Love with a Boy – a sneaky reworking of The White Stripes' hit Fell in Love with a Girl.
Joss is considered a true talent amongst a sea of over-hyped and saccharine teen popstars and has since released six more studio albums, most recently Water for Your Soul in 2015.

I'm pretty sure I explained everything pretty thoroughly in the video below, so here's a list of things I used an a few pictures. If You'd like to vote for my video in the Physician's Formula Contest, here's the link (you can vote on each video once a day).
I also want to mention, that even though these shadows look great in person, they photograph kind of…. well… not so great up-close. This is one of the problems you can have when you use all-shimmery shadows (though sometimes it's ok). Also some of the colors in the palettes are really pigmented (typically the metallic finish and darker colors) and some are sheer. I still think these are a great bargain and they are especially good for people who want color with out the POW, if you're on a budget, plus as far as I know Physician's Formula Doesn't test on Animals.

Why I Will Never, Ever, EVER Get a Tattoo
Would I have to start planning outfits around the tattoo like I plan for weather?
Could I look any happier to be posing with Wenlock in John Lewis? That's just how I roll...
So after nearly three whole days of holding the fort and managing not to burn down the internet or anything, I get to undertake the most enjoyable task of the week and go through all the hilarious and insightful comments from our dear readers and pick those that have been most instructive to me.
Emily's 10 Reasons Why… men like bitches inspired some fascinating and candid observations, including:
"Oh see now I usually practise the bitch technique (out of crippling shyness and adherence to the school rules of dating 'WHAT?! I never fancied X - shut up!') and it fails miserably! I always lose out to clingy women who ban their boyfriends from talking to me! Next time I'm trying wild clinginess." (Squeamish Kate)
"The trick to this (this being hideously destructive relationship) is be a bitch until you have trapped someone and THEN go to wild clinginess. sorted." (Olivia)
I should have known that you all would love Rebecca's slightly creepy interview with Jilly Cooper.
Comments like "I LOVE JILLY. I LOVE THAT YOU DO TOO. What's your favourite? Can we have a book club?!???" (Olivia) and "I really want to be in a book club that does Jilly, Jackie Collins, Jennifer Belle, writers like that. Would be so, so good! It should def be one facet of the xoJane book club. We can video ourselves reviewing them wearing outfits inspired by the characters!! (I realise I may be taking this too far now but I totally would)" (Alisande) are pretty indicative of our big collective Cooper crush.
I also picked up a stingy shopper beauty tip on our Cool Women's Beauty Travelling Companions piece from Jibble which I'm definitely going to try: "Avene Thermal Water Spray, because a £4 mini bottle just feels so decadent and also refreshing."
And finally, I was incredibly moved by your responses to Alisande's feature on the lack of abortion rights in Ireland. The compassion and practical suggestions of support for the women who have to travel to England to have abortions in your comments are what makes me so proud of this site and our readers:
"When I had my abortion, every one of the four other women in the recovery room was Irish. It broke my heart thinking about how they would have to make a long journey home and then probably pretend like nothing was wrong once they got there." Topgams
"I think one of the beauties of xojane uk is that it is more localised to my side of the world. I am so fully versed in American struggles because of the websites I go to for news, and know what I can do to show PP support etc, but I'd love to know if an how I can help with anything Irish- you guys are terrifyingly close geographically but so far away. I never stop counting my blessings about my reproductive rights in the UK." Olivia
"Yes, a good idea, also perhaps people opening their homes for a night so the women don't have to stay at a hotel or in hospital before the abortion could be an idea." Jennifer Porrett
Thanks as always for your feedback - we really appreciate it. Have a lovely weekend!

Earnings per share
From Traderpedia
Earnings per share(EPS) is the earnings returned on the amount invested initially.
EPS is calculated as bottom line net income divided by the number of shares outstanding.
The value used for company earnings can either be the last twelve months' net income (referred to as trailing-twelve-months, or ttm), or analysts' predictions for the next twelve months' net income (referred to as forward).
The number of shares used for the calculation can either be basic (only shares that are currently outstanding) or diluted (includes all shares that could potentially enter the market).
Companies often use a weighted average of shares outstanding over the reporting term. EPS can be calculated for the previous year ("trailing EPS"), for the current year ("current EPS"), or for the coming year ("forward EPS"). Note that last year's EPS would be actual, while current year and forward year EPS would be estimates.

Atlanta police have recovered the green 1996 Toyota Corolla belonging to Olamide Adeyooye, the Illinois State University student whose body was found Oct. 21 in a burned-out chicken coop in Mississippi, authorities said Monday.
"It's a big break in the case. This will really help us put the pieces together," said Lt. Mark Kotte, spokesman for the Normal Police Department. He said police hope evidence in the car would tell them where it had been since leaving Normal, whether Adeyooye's body had been transported in it and who else had been in the car.

The company's new Cloud Private for Data is a dedicated application layer built using containerisation. It hosts a range of microservices for data science and AI, improving the platform's modularity and making it easier for users to understand.
Announced in a press release on Friday, IBM said the new platform will be compatible with "all" cloud networks. It's based on the Kubernetes container architecture, an open-source modularisation system originally created by Google. Applications developed using Cloud Private for Data can be deployed in minutes to cloud environments.
Getting more value out of data
The platform is engineered to assist businesses in building new apps and utilizing data. IBM is specifically positioning the cloud to uncover "previously unobtainable insights" that could help companies streamline their operations. Cloud Private for Data can ingest information from a wide range of sources, including data science utilities, industrial sensors, ecommerce transactions and mobile devices.
According to IBM, the platform will enable enterprises to "bring the AI destination closer" by making it simpler to harness the value of data.
The service will provide a way for firms to convert data into actionable insights, without requiring complex siloed applications. IBM claimed that Cloud Private for Data can analyze up to one million data events each second while supporting cloud applications and microservice containers.
"Whether they are aware of it or not, every company is on a journey to AI as the ultimate driver of business transformation," said Rob Thomas, General Manager, IBM Analytics. "But for them to get there, they need to put in place an information architecture for collecting, managing and analyzing their data. With today's announcements, we are planning to bring the AI destination closer and give access to powerful machine learning and data science technologies that can turn data into game-changing insight."
Compatibility and support
Although the solution is compatible with all cloud ecosystems, IBM will also offer a range of industry-specific solutions. These will be optimised for workloads such as financial services, healthcare and manufacturing, providing insights that are most relevant to these industries. Enterprises will be able to configure AI services and data analysis pipelines without using external services, creating an integrated environment for app development and data science.
To encourage adoption of Cloud Private for Data and its other data services, IBM is also establishing a dedicated customer support team. The company's new Data Science Elite Team currently includes over 30 individuals but is expected to grow to more than 200 people over the next few years. The team assists customers in using IBM's platforms and configuring their workloads, further lowering the learning curve for AI and data science.
New program for female angel investors launched
A new accelerator program for women corporate and technology executives aims to boost the number of women performing deal-making venture capital gains.
The new development comes from Highline BETA, a startup co-creation and a new venture development company operating in the U.S. and Canada. Highline BETA has relaunched the Female Funders Angel Academy, an accelerator program aimed at female corporate and technology executives as they pursue angel investing.
Forging a new path for female investors
In Canada, for example, just six percent of deal-making venture capitalists and 20 percent of angel investors are female. To help address this, Female Funders is collaborating with the National Angel Capital Organization (NACO) to put together a new standard of education in angel investing.
The Female Funders program was acquired by Highlined BETA in 2017. The re-launched scheme will focus on three key pillars, each of which is intended to speed up pathways to enable first investment for women angel investors.
These pillars are:
- blended education
- investment opportunities supported by local experts and peer guidance
- a curated network of women executives, investors and innovators
Commenting on the revamped scheme, Executive Director of Female Funders and the chief operating officer of Highline BETA Lauren Robinson said: "There are a handful of incredibly talented women investors today —but we need more…We talk a lot about the growth of female entrepreneurship, and we see the tides starting to shift."
Creating culture change
However, a culture change is required to make this happen. Robinson adds: "Without representation on both sides of the table — among both entrepreneurs and investors — we won't see real change."
The Academy is central to the structural and cultural changes needed to help bring more female investors forwards. With this venture, those who sign up to the Academy will begin an eight-week self-paced training program. The curriculum extends to the fundamentals of angel investing, like deconstructing the mechanics of a successful deal.
After the program is completed, Angel Academy members will have the opportunity to write their first investment cheque for startups and to co-invest alongside Highline BETA.
Connection Silicon Valley bridges Canadian business and world-class innovation
Joanne Fedeyko, CEO of Connection Silicon Valley, is serious about putting Canada on the map when it comes to innovation.
"I'm incredibly passionate about helping Canadian companies be successful," she told DX Journal in an interview. "Their success equals success in Canada. Ultimately, what I want to see is Canada on the global innovation stage as a major player."
For Fedeyko, a native of Northern Alberta, that means creating a bridge between Canadian business and the vibrant culture and approach of Silicon Valley. Through her work with Connection Silicon Valley, she helps Canadian startups, scaleups and corporate clients connect with all the exciting opportunities happening in one of the world's greatest innovation hubs.
Connecting to the Valley
All of Connection Silicon Valley's work is to encourage Canadian entrepreneurs and investors to branch out in their thinking a little more and gain a global perspective on their innovative projects and practices.
"I connect startups and corporates into Silicon Valley's rich tech and innovation ecosystem to help them build and scale their business," Fedeyko said. "The core of the work that I do is very custom and curated."
Fedeyko dissects what companies might need, problems they might solve, or who they might need to connect with. "It's all about custom connections."
For startups, the biggest thing is funding and investors — but networking with other CEOs and founders can be a huge benefit. Speaking to the right Silicon Valley veteran can help founders determine things like pricing for their product, or even how to avoid a few pitfalls other CEOs have encountered in their previous experiences.
For corporate clients, Fedeyko organizes trips where Canadian companies speak with investors, startups and thought leaders. Through these two-day trips, Canadian companies can learn best where businesses are investing their resources, and get a sense of how to future proof their brand in light of developing technologies.
"When people come down to the Valley, light bulbs go off every single time," she said. "It's eye-opening to see the ecosystem, the pace, the energy, the urgency, the plethora of technologies, and the collaborative nature. People have to see it, not just read about it, in order to grab some of the DNA that exists in the Valley."
HQ2 helps put Canada on the map
Attitudes and perceptions of innovation in the Great White North are changing, both within and outside Canada.
According to @KPMG's Global Innovation Report, #Toronto is ranked among the fastest-growing #tech innovation hubs, outpacing Silicon Valley & San Francisco: https://t.co/uXdXERJslG pic.twitter.com/l0Pq0G3WxA
— NEXT Canada (@Next_Canada) April 2, 2018
With Toronto making the shortlist for Amazon's HQ2, there is a realization that the world is increasingly looking closer at Canada's immigration policy, its stellar post-secondary institutions and its AI expertise.
Fedeyko says there's been a subtle shift in how Canadian businesses approach Silicon Valley innovation, but that Amazon's interest in Canada has been the biggest moment of realization she's seen so far.
.@Forbes reports: "If You Want To Launch a New Company, Head North To #Toronto" #InvestinCanada https://t.co/sclvUGJkvJ … @Toronto_Global @InvestOntario pic.twitter.com/OD1HfCaj8H
— Invest in Canada (@invest_canada) April 1, 2018
"I think Amazon is one of the best things that could have happened to make Canada wake up."
The attention and competitive potential of Amazon has shifted the territory for Canadian businesses on the world stage. As the world's attention turns towards Canadian entrepreneurs and founders, Canadian companies are looking to connect with the excitement of innovation hubs like Silicon Valley, and American founders are looking to get better acquainted with the vibrant world of Canadian tech businesses. That's where Connection Silicon Valley comes in.
Not a lot of people are doing this kind of work specifically for Canadian companies. For Fedeyko, it's a question of passion. "I'm really doing it because I love my country and I want everyone to have the same sort of opportunities to connect with Silicon Valley like I do every day."
Connect with Connection Silicon Valley in Toronto
Part of the Valley experience that Connection Silicon Valley is bringing to Canadians comes in the form of innovation immersion sessions. On April 24, Connection Silicon Valley is hosting a dinner for director-level business leaders to share an open dialogue about how disruption is changing the shape of business, and what's holding companies back from embracing transformative change. Get your ticket here.
Three big examples of DX culture shift
Digital transformation is not just about technology and big ideas. For digital transformation to be undertaken smoothly, a cultural change, involving all employees, need to take place.
Most headline messages about digital transformation discuss the necessity of switching from legacy systems; avoiding siloed data; and focusing on developing the digital understanding of C-suite executives. What is often missing from the discussion is the need to develop a new culture. This is a culture of innovation, understanding and shared values in order to innovate product and service development.
Changing mindsets
Analysis by MIT Sloan and Deloitte into business-focused digital successes and failures concluded:
"The history of technological advance in business is littered with examples of companies focusing on technologies without investing in organizational capabilities that ensure their impact. In many companies, (failures are) classic examples of expectations falling short because organizations didn't change mindsets and processes or build cultures that fostered change."
The survey also found, as Sloan Review summarizes, that the ability to digitally reimagine the business is a key factor of clear digital strategy. Such organizational vision, supported by leaders, fosters an innovative, change-friendly culture. For this to happen, the workforce needs to willingly and determinedly take on the digital transformation path.
Taking employees on the journey
This means every employee in the company should understand and support collaborative practices, innovation, open culture and adopting a digital-first mindset; plus, having the agility and flexibility, customer centricity to deliver change. Once this is in place a data-driven culture will start to form and new technologies can be steadily adopted.
This means companies need to implement systemic changes in how they organize and develop workforces. Organizations also need to seriously consider how they drive workplace innovation, and work collectively to cultivate digitally-minded cultures and experiences.
Coca Cola
As to how this might work in practice, one example is Coca Cola. The company acknowledges that culture change is one of the most difficult aspects of digital transformation to realize.
The soft drinks firm's digital strategy officer, David Godsman notes that changing culture across the marketing team is the hardest thing Coca-Cola has to tackle as it undergoes the necessary transformation to bring the enterprise into the digital age.
Coca Cola is also attempting to alter its customer focus, acknowledging the need to create personalized experiences for consumers and customers, to fit in with consumers seeking multi-channel experiences and fast mobile access, especially when receiving promotions.
Latitude financial services
A second example of digital transformation with a customer focus is with Latitude financial services. According to Caroline Ruddick, who is the company's general manager of marketing, there needs to be a twin strategy of developing and improving the customer experience. This shift in strategy, says Ruddick, must be bound to the process of ensuring that employees are responsive to the changes taking place within the organization so they can successful and emphatically offer high quality outfacing services.
Tied up with this is recognition that customers are increasingly more concerned about the experience of dealing with a product or company, seeking an easier, multi-channel offering, and they are less concerned about the actual product, or at least with having any significant loyalty to one product over another.
Adobe provides a third example of a company that has recognized the value of culture change. According to Vision Critical, when Adobe made the decision to transition from physical software to a cloud-based model, the company recognized that it was necessary to shift its employees' focus towards the the customer.
This was undertaken by developing a staff Experience-a-thon. Adobe had employees role play testing and providing feedback on Adobe portfolio of products, pretending to be customers. This led to an employee engagement strategy and a shift in culture, paving the way for Adobe's evolution into a cloud company.
These examples demonstrate that the 'big moment' for an organization is when it embraces the fact that digital transformation is not a a technical problem to be fixed, but instead it is a cultural change to be enacted through the enterprise.

Forensic entomologists are mostly called upon to analyze insect larvae in cases where they are feeding and growing inside decomposing human tissue. Insects enter a corpse through openings in the body — eyes, ears, nose, mouth, anus, and genitals — to lay their eggs. If they enter through another area, chances are this indicates a wound area.
As these eggs hatch and feed, they attract other predators and parasites, such as flies, beetles, and wasps. Some of these insects have an appetite for human flesh, some preferring a «fresh kill», others the rotting odor. Flies are the most common insect attracted to the odor of rotting flesh, but they will only be active around such flesh when the outdoor temperature is fifty-two degrees or higher.
Insects are remarkable creatures. They're the oldest and most dominant life form on Earth, outnumbering animals by three to one. Compared with humans, they might be said to be inside-out because their skeletons are on the outside and their spinal cords are upside-down. They have no lungs, but breathe through tiny holes behind their heads, distributed throughout their bodies in a system of tiny tubes.
Most have two sets of eyes, two or three simple eyes, and a pair of compound eyes. Hearing is accomplished with eardrums (for some), or by antennae (for most). Most of them have keen camouflage abilities. They can mimic their environment by changing color, or mimic other insects by changing their behavior. Most of them can be frozen at many degrees below zero, and still be revived.
Also, they can handle extreme differences in vacuum or air pressure quite easily. Their most comfortable temperature is the 100-120 degree range. Their social organization, sex control, and egg laying abilities seem to show an intelligence far greater than humans. They seem to be constantly seeking out new, curious, habitats, moving by sense of smell (pheromones), temperature, light, gravity, and air or water currents.
They are not affected by tactile stimulation. Their reproductive process is unique. Their eggs hatch into larvae, then enter a pupae stage, and grow into adults from maggots or grubs (metamorphosis). Insects feed on just about anything. A small number are vegetarian (plant feeders), but most are carnivorous. Some are predatory, some are parasites, and others are blood-sucking.
Most have an appetite for decaying and decomposing material. Their mouths contain very powerful jaws and needlelike parts that function as teeth. In chewing insects, the mandibles move sideways. Sucking insects have a long proboscis and require liquid food. Most do not require water, as their bodies either conserve it or metabolize it from food.
Their digestive systems are not unlike humans. Insect sex is also not unlike humans. In a moist, insect-friendly environment, over 300 species of insects will visit a decomposing human body from death through the skeletal stage.
All living things are classified into a Phylum — Class — Order — Family — Genus — Species system. Phylum refers to how «high» or «low» the life form is on the evolutionary scale. Class usually distinguishes between structural characteristics (insects, for example, belong to the Class Insecta in the Phylum Arthropods).
The Order Diptera is that group of insects where the word «fly» is used as a second word, as in «blue fly» as opposed to dragonfly where «fly» is part of the word. It's often said that Diptera refers to the true «flies». Orders are further subdivided into families, and families into genera, and genera into species.
New «types» or species are always evolving, but a principal rule of zoology is that you cannot have 2 species in the same genus with the same name. For present purposes, we'll concern ourselves with the Order Diptera and certain families of it that prey on humans. Diptera have two sets of wings (front and hind), especially sharp mouth parts, larvae called «maggots», and undergo their metamorphosis either in excrement or animal flesh.
They are politely regarded as «nature's scavengers» since, if given time, they will remove all traces of dead carcass from an area. However, where there's large numbers of dead carcasses and Diptera, there's also usually outbreaks of dysentery. Some Diptera are parasitic, which means that, if they can accomplish it, they will try to find a living animal host to plant their eggs in (horses, for example, are especially sought out for this, with the eggs layed on the horse's mouth, which are then swallowed, allowing maggots to grow in the stomach).
A Family of Diptera exist (shown in the photos) which are predatory. They seek out, hunt, and prey on animals in hopes of killing them in order to lay their eggs. This is the group we are concerned with, and they love nothing more than to find a human carcass. Blow flies are found practically everywhere, and look like an ordinary house fly, or slightly larger. Many are metallic blue or green.
They have especially strong rear legs. Each female lays about 100 or more eggs. A carcass teeming with maggots is usually densely populated by the larvae of blow flies. Flesh flies are also quite common, similar in color, but shaped differently than blow flies (smaller legs, for example). Their larvae tend to be smaller than blow flies, both in size and number.
Their preference is to be parasitic, attaching their eggs to a living host, if possible. One species, Wohlfahrtia, only parasitizes humans. Screwworm flies are rather short, fat, and round, existing in numerous species. They prefer to lay their eggs on the skin of a living host. As the eggs hatch, the larvae burrow down under the skin until they find an internal organ. Some parasitic species are so clever as to lay their eggs on a foodstuff right before the animal eats it.

Defending champions Islamabad United are off to a winning start in the HBL Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2017 as the beat Peshawar Zalmi by seven wickets. United chased down the revised target of 173 runs in 18 overs with two balls to spare after a brief rain spell halted the game brining their 191 run target in 20 overs down to 173 in 18.
Brad Haddin top-scored with 73 scored off only 39 balls, his innings included three sixes and 18 fours, Dwayne Smith scored 55 off 49 balls, Haddin and Smith added 104 runs in a match winning alliance that got their title defence to an excellent start.
Earlier a scintillating 88 run innings by Peshawar Zalmi wicket-keeper batsman Kamran Akmal propelled the team to a score of 190 for nine in the allotted 20 overs.
After losing Mohammad Hafeez on the opening ball of the match and the tournament the Zalmis roared back in contention with a 122 run partnership in only 68 balls between Akmal and Dawid Malan who scored 43 in only 30 balls with the help of three sixes and four fours.
Akmal smashed six massive sixes besides hitting four boundaries in his innings that came off 48 balls. Zalmis suffered with a blip in form during the last few overs of their innings, they lost their middle and lower order in a clutter yet ended with a big score with eight wickets falling for an addition of 60 runs.
Shane Watson took four wickets conceding 44 runs in his quota of four overs

"We revealed a bigger market and showed a competitor was not all it was cracked up to be."
An FT250 PLC helicopter equipment manufacturer
Looking to buy a competitor
Decided to pull out of the market
This PLC helicopter equipment manufacturer asked us to take a look at its market. It was not certain of its full potential and was unsure if it
wanted to put more cash into a specific market area. It had its eyes on the main competitor too.
We researched the market by talking with industry insiders –
including competitors – and found the specific market area to be worth around £20m. Its competitor was on its knees and only had one or two main clients.
The company decided not to buy and to move its focus to other part of the business, which we revealed to be at least ten times bigger.

Check with the admissions office for assistance with prerequisites, course registration deadlines, and associates degree program requirements. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Allegany College.
Research demonstrates that associates degree students go on to complete bachelor degrees at a much higher rate than those students who transfer with only a few credits. When starting your associates degree, plan ahead and be sure that you are picking courses that will be transferable to colleges and universities later on. Further, by choosing your major early, you can take the required classes needed for your degree in a community college, saving both time and up-front investment.
Look at four-year schools in your state first, to decide if any would be a good fit for you, as in-state tuition may be lower for state residents. This will outline what classes you need to take to qualify, and what minimum GPA you'll need to maintain to avoid losing hard-earned credits when you actually transfer. The following state websites provide information about the transfer process within their state. While most states are generally similar, please ask your community college advisor about the specific guidelines for your state. Beyond major requirements within the admissions department, you may consider Lake Area Tech courses for adults for complementary electives to your primary course of study.

On Monday, July 25, 2011, President Obama met with the San Francisco Giants at the White House, honoring them for their 2010 World Series win. The President had very kind words to say to the champs, and it was obvious that whoever wrote his speech was a Giants fan. He singled out Tim Lincecum and Brian Wilson, referred to Barry Zito's Strikeouts for Troops nonprofit organization, and mentioned the team's participation in the It Gets Better campaign. After the speech, Bruce Bochy presented the President with a signed Giants jersey, longest-tenured Giant Matt Cain gave him a signed bat, and Bill Neukom gave him some gloves. It was an enormous privilege for all the players, coaches, broadcasters and staff that were in attendance to receive recognition from the Commander-in-Chief.
Though it was nice to see the 2011 Giants celebrated at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, it would have meant more to see the 2010 Giants standing behind the President. Andrew Baggarly reports that the entire current roster was invited, including the long list of players on the DL. They were told to decide on their own if making the trip would adversely affect their rehabilitation. Buster Posey, Freddy Sanchez, Pat Burrell and Jonathan Sanchez were not in attendance. Buster, who just had screws removed from his ankle on Friday, is in no condition to travel. It is a shame that he could not shake the President's hand, considering what he did for the team last year. He is the reigning NL Rookie of the Year, an award well deserved from what he did with his bat and behind the plate, handling the Giants' distinguished pitching staff. Likewise, Freddy Sanchez was a major part of the Giants' 2010 success. He also made history by hitting three doubles in his first three World Series at-bats. Freddy is rehabbing his shoulder and trying to get healthy enough to play in the majors again this season. Pat Burrell and Jonathan Sanchez seem healthy and able to travel. Pat's absence is a bit of a mystery. Jonathan may feel that he needs to stay in Fresno for appearances. He needs to prove to the front office that his head is in the game, that he is devoted to improving his pitching and earning back his spot in the rotation. Not making the trip may be a way to show his dedication.
Some former Giants also merited a trip to the White House but were left off the list. Travis Ishikawa, who is now a Fresno Grizzly, should have been invited. Bengie Molina, now semi-retired, ended last season opposing the Giants in the World Series. Nonetheless, he will forever be a Giant. He played in San Francisco for three and a half seasons before he was traded to the Rangers. He mentored Posey and the young starting staff. There is no doubt that his guidance was integral to the Giants' success.
There are plenty of new Giants who had nothing to do with last year's World Series that got to meet the President. Jeff Keppinger, Brandon Belt, Brandon Crawford, Chris Stewart, Ryan Vogelsong, and Miguel Tejada, all freshmen Giants, were at the White House. Keppinger had been a Giant for less than a week and was surprised to hear about the trip. He had to buy a suit for the occasion. These newbies did not help bring the trophy home to San Francisco, but it doesn't matter. They are on the team, and they should be there. Once you don the orange and black, you are a Giant.
Those who chose to take off the orange and black are not missed on an occasion like this. Edgar Renteria and Juan Uribe both deserted the team in the off-season. Renteria sneered at a $1 million contract offer, calling it disrespectful. He was quoted by ESPN Deportes saying, "To play for a million dollars, I'd rather stay with my private business and share more time with my family." That prompted some of the Giants faithful to wonder what price tag he puts on his family time. The Giants' offer was low because, even though Renteria was the World Series MVP, he is old and beaten up. He played only 72 games in the 2010 regular season due to injuries, and his salary was quite bloated. He was expected to retire after the 2010 season. He would have been the backup shortstop in 2011, and the offer reflected that fact. After Renteria's comments, it was very unlikely the Giants would provide him with an improved offer. Renteria signed with the Reds with a salary of about $3 million. At that point, Giants fans barely cared. If Renteria wanted to act like a spoiled brat, then so be it. What Juan Uribe did was much more insulting.
Jose Uribe, referred to as either Juan's uncle or second cousin, was the Giants' shortstop from 1985 to 1992. Fans loved him, and they cheered him with the call-and-response, "Ooo-ribe." The same cheer was used for Juan in 2010, but not anymore. Now a traitor, he is Boo-ribe.
This is my understanding of the contract negotiations: the Giants told the defector to find his market worth by getting some offers from other teams. They would then match it. The rival Dodgers offered him a three year, $21 million contract, and he took it without giving the Giants a chance to counter-offer. In another version of the story, the Giants didn't want to match such a high offer, and rather than negotiate to stay with the champs, Boo-ribe took the job with the enemy. Of course, ballplayers will generally take the best contract (meaning the one that pays the most) no matter what team it is with. The 2010 Giants, however, thrived on chemistry and camaraderie. The players really rooted for each other and played as a true team. It came as an enormous surprise that someone who was so beloved by the fans, a postseason hero who appeared overjoyed in the victory parade, a man with roots in the Giants organization would spit in the face of every Giants fan by putting on Dodger blue. It's not just that he left the championship team for another ball club; it's that he left us for our sworn enemy. And why? For more money.
Had the Giants visited the White House in mid-November, the entire championship team would have been in attendance to receive their well-deserved accolades. At that time, Boo-ribe and Renteria were still heroes, rather than villains. Buster, Freddy and all the rest were healthy. San Francisco and northern California were riding a natural high. The future was in front of us, and it looked to be ours for the taking. We couldn't have known how different the active roster would look in July. These Giants are finding a way to win games, and because they are Giants, we love them. But they aren't the championship team. It's bittersweet for the Giants to be honored by the President when so many individuals vital to the World Series win are not there.
We'll just have to win it again, then, won't we?

Event to Connect Attendees With Thought Leaders and Provide Best Practices for Creating an Effective Workforce Planning Strategy for Today and Into the Future
Event to Connect Attendees With Thought Leaders and Provide Best Practices for Creating an Effective Workforce Planning Strategy for Today and Into the Future
NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Jan 9, 2014) - The Human Capital Institute (HCI), the global institution for strategic talent management, today announced details of the 2014 Workforce Planning and Analytics Conference, to be held from Monday, February 10 through Wednesday, February 12, 2014. Now in its fifth year, the conference will provide attendees with answers to their biggest workforce planning challenges and present them with the ideas and best practices that can help them make immediate improvements in their organizations.
Despite the importance of workforce planning for organizational success, many organizations -- perhaps more than 70 percent -- lack a true workforce plan. Even if the right data and skills are in place, companies still struggle to convert those assets into viable plans. Although most companies recognize the need to adopt a comprehensive workforce planning strategy, or transform their current processes, many fail to realize that the biggest barriers to doing so are often tactical in nature and require small hops rather than a big leap.
During the 2014 Workforce Planning and Analytics Conference, HCI will gather some of the foremost thinkers, business leaders and practitioners of workforce planning to share their ideas and strategies to kick start and fine-tune an effective workforce planning strategy. The conference will demonstrate how those responsible for workforce planning can gain the insight needed to construct and implement a future-proof plan, understand the technology infrastructure needed to support today's workforce needs and identify how they can build an ideal, balanced workforce. Through a comprehensive agenda of workshops, educational sessions and networking opportunities, attendees can connect with their peers to discuss similar challenges, while learning about the solutions and best practices that can bring workforce planning success.
"As more companies realize just how essential workforce planning is to organizational success, our 2014 Workforce Planning and Analytics Conference was designed to help attendees -- no matter where they fall on the workforce planning spectrum -- identify the tools and practices that can deliver immediate improvements," said Carl Rhodes, HCI's chief executive officer. "We are pleased to offer attendees high-level insight from some of the most innovative and successful leaders in workforce planning today. We are also confident that the information attendees gain from the conference will help them develop an effective plan of action to enhance workforce planning throughout 2014 and beyond."
The 2014 HCI Workforce Planning and Analytics Conference is made possible by the contributions of many underwriters, including:
Premier Underwriters: SuccessFactors, an SAP Company
Diamond Underwriters: Allegis Group Services, Monster, SkillSurvey and Visier
Platinum Underwriters: Camden Delta and CareerBuilder

Creating an edible garden
By Stephanie Williams for The Listing, October issue
Imagine creating a garden you can draw your dinner from, use as waste disposal and enjoy just being in. Costa Georgiadis. Australia's much-loved garden guru, landscape architect and champion of sustainability, shares his expert advice on creating an edible garden with The Listing, even if you only have a small space.
In his role as host of ABC's Gardening Australia, Costa brings together his two loves – plants and people. A chat with Costa is never dull and his holistic approach to gardening is based on a deep appreciation of 'Mother Nature' and nurturing balance across the cycles and season.
Plan, plan, plan
For Costa, planning is key to making your edible garden a success. "Create a vision and break it down into the elements that make it look the way it looks: materials, textures, scale." When you're ready to plant, he says to simply choose a corner and get started. "Start with one container or pot and put a few more around it with plants you like and then watch it grow from there. Take photos of the space as you transform it, to be encouraged by your progress."
Here comes the sun
It's important to be realistic about sunlight. "Sometimes small courtyards just don't get enough sun to be able to grow vegetables. It's important to get at least five hours of sunlight a day and plenty of reflected light so that the veggies don't struggle," Costa shares.
Going up
Don't be shy about using containers and going vertical – you double your growing area. "Salad greens and cherry tomatoes, peas and cucumbers will bring results that spur on and feed the gardening interest," according to Costa.
Branching out
Costas suggests tapping in to your local community garden to get to know what else does well in your area – chat with the locals and follow gardeners in your area who may have a blog. "There are things like local crop-swaps where you can not only share produce, but growing tips and techniques too," Costa shares.
No waste
"Set up a benchtop composting container in your kitchen", Costa says, "it must have a lid to prevent vinegar flies from setting up shop." As you become more efficient, it's good to have two bins. Costa explains, "so one can go to a worm farm and the second lot can go to the compost, or in my case to the chickens too!"
Gardening Australia airs on ABC at 6:30pm Saturdays. Follow Costa at costasworld.org.

Most of the information and articles in the newspapers and network news programs pertaining to the Plan B or morning after birth control pill discuss primarily social, religious and political issues. I have read a few articles or comments by pediatricians and other physicians saying that these pills are very safe and have no long-term side effects
Our experience with these birth control pills, and that is actually what they are, is very limited in this country. I have reviewed a number of articles from countries where these pills have been used for years, and they outline major risks and complications that are being seen in women of all ages who are exposed to these birth control pills.
In a 2001 Lancet article, the author, Dr. Ellen Grant, points out the complications. The morning after pill is equal in strength to taking 50 regular birth control pills. If the individual taking these pills has any of the known inherited genetic or acquired susceptibilities to clotting, or is a smoker, she is at great risk of developing blood clots. The majority of these are deep venous clots of the lower extremities, but in reality can develop anywhere in the body, including the brain.
I am a hematologist and have diagnosed and treated many young women who have developed blood clots related to the above mentioned conditions, with and without the addition of birth control pills, which can be a major independent risk factor for clotting. I will leave the other complications related to birth control pills to the OB/Gyn doctors.
So, what happens when a 15-year-old develops a major clotting complication associated with the morning after birth control pill? Aside from the obvious medical problems, both acute and potentially chronic, these complications can be fatal.
Who will her attorney blame? The FDA, Planned Parenthood, the Obama administration and, of course, the drug manufacturer and the pharmacy where the pill was purchased.
These legal issues are of secondary concern.
The main problem is that we are introducing another supposedly harmless medicine to be taken by young women who believe the media when they point out that " these pills are safe."

|The retinoblastoma protein, Rb, was one of the first tumor suppressor genes identified as a result of the familial syndrome retinoblastoma. In the period since its identification and cloning a large number of studies have described its role in various cellular processes. The application of conditional somatic mutation with lineage and temporally controlled gene deletion strategies, thus circumventing the lethality associated with germ-line deletion of Rb, have allowed for a reanalysis of the in vivo role of Rb. In the hematopoietic system, such approaches have led to new insights into stem cell biology and the role of the microenvironment in regulating hematopoietic stem cell fate. They have also clarified the role that Rb plays during erythropoiesis and defined a novel mechanism linking mitochondrial function to terminal cell cycle withdrawal. These studies have shed light on the in vivo role of Rb in the regulation of hematopoiesis and also prompt further analysis of the role that Rb plays in both the regulation of hematopoietic stem cells and the terminal differentiation of their progeny.

SanDisk, Record Companies Plan New Music Format
In the latest attempt to shore up sales of music on physical media, SanDisk Corp. and the four major music companies plan to announce Monday a new format called slotMusic.
SlotMusic is be introduced in mid-October at retail outlets including Wal-Mart Stores Inc. and Best Buy Co. Each unit is to contain an album, plus extras, on a compact memory card that can be played on mobile phones, PCs and some portable MP3 players. The cards are inserted into vacant slots on phones and other devices. (The slots are increasingly common on newer phones, but the placement of the slot depends on the phone model.) SanDisk is a maker of flash data storage card products.
People close to the record companies and retailers said they view the effort as an experiment. The initial batch of releases is to comprise 29 albums, from all four of the big recorded music companies: EMI Group Ltd., Warner Music Group Corp. Vivendi SA's Universal Music Group and Sony BMG Music Entertainment, a joint venture of Sony Corp.and Bertelsmann AG. The releases are mostly by current pop artists including Rihanna, Ne-Yo, Robin Thicke, New Kids on the Block, Weezer, Usher, Chris Brown, Akon and Leona Lewis. In a nod to older buyers, Elvis Presley is also represented.
The music is to be sold in the MP3 format, with no digital locks that prevent copying. An adapter is to be included allowing users to transfer their music to PCs via their USB slots. The albums are expected to cost about $15 and are likely to be stocked by retailers near CDs and portable devices such as MP3 players and mobile phones.
CD sales have been decimated in recent years, as consumers have migrated to digital downloads, whether they pay for them or not. Earlier this year Apple Inc.'s iTunes Store surpassed Wal-Mart to become the largest music retailer in the world. The record labels have tried various ways to prop up sales of albums, which are more profitable than the 99-cent single tracks that make up the vast majority of iTunes sales.
The music companies over the years have tried to persuade consumers to migrate beyond CDs to a range of new formats, including DVD-Audio -- all with limited success at best. But Daniel Schreiber, general manager of SanDisk's audio-video business unit, says slotMusic has a unique advantage, since it's compatible with a vast range of devices people already own, including hundreds of millions of mobile phones.
"I don't have to convince you to buy anything; you already own it," Mr. Schreiber says. "I don't have to convince you to carry anything; you're already carrying it."
