We'd like to take a moment to say a big thank you to this week's sponsor, Jumsoft Money
Jumsoft, a developer of high-quality applications for Mac OS X, has completely overhauled its most popular product, the finance and budgeting application Money. It provides small businesses and home users with a simple and remarkably effective way to track their financial records and create budgets. Among other novelties, the new Money 4 features a fully redesigned user interface, allows direct downloads from financial institutions, and institutes smart importing rules and a document-based system that allows multiple users to work with a single copy of the application.
Money was first released in 2003 and has gained wide popularity among small businesses and home users of Mac since then. Fans of Money appreciate its combination of high usability and effective finance management.
Money 4 provides a flexible way of recording financial transactions in multiple types of accounts: cash, bank, credit card, loan, investment, and asset. With Money 4, users can create a budget plan and effortlessly monitor the actual outcome. The comprehensible Portfolio feature displays a well-rounded view of investments. Managing scheduled transactions and creating straightforward income/expense reports is also refreshingly simple with Money 4.
"Whether our clients wish to keep track of their personal expenditures or create monthly budgets for their business, Money is designed for them," says Algirdas Unguvaitis, Jumsoft's general manager. "We have put a great deal of time and effort into the fourth installment of the application, and we truly hope our clients will be satisfied with the final result."
Money is available for purchase on Jumsoft's Web site and on Apple's Mac App Store.

I'd like to take a moment to say a big thank you to this week's sponsor, Jumsoft. In particular, we'd like to highlight a fantastic offer they're running at the moment on two of their Pages products: the Inspiration Set, and Clipart.
Both of these are currently on offer over at the Mac App Store for the reduced price of $9.99. This is a great deal for a large collection of Pages add-ons, which can really boost what the application has to offer.
The Pages Clipart package contains a total of 1,200 polished clipart pieces to help you compose even more thrilling text documents. This isn't your average, boring Microsoft Word clipart – the high quality of design fits what you'd expect in graphics built for an Apple app.

I'd like to take a moment to say a big thank you to this week's sponsor, Jumsoft. In particular, their latest release of Keynote Themes. This is a fantastic selection of fifteen beautifully hand crafted themes for Apple's Keynote, designed to make your presentations stand out from the crowd.
The whole pack includes 15 themes: from the clear and crisp "Subtle Mind", to the cold, stylish "Glossy Metal" and the richly-textured "Nostalgia". Each theme includes 50 master slides – a mix of bullet, text, and photo-oriented layouts – plenty of versatility for any presentation.
If you'd like to find out more, be sure to visit the official Keynote Themes site, and take a look at what's on offer. The full collection of 15 themes is available to buy now for $79. Definitely worth considering if you're a regular Keynote user!
I'd like to take a moment to say a big thank you to this week's sponsor, Jumsoft. In particular, their latest release of Pages Templates 6.0. These are a great way to spruce up your collection of pre-built Pages designs, and some of the new graphical layouts are really gorgeous.
Jumsoft has created a handy mini-site where you can quickly view all the included templates, which gives you a good feel for what to expect.
Pages Templates 6.0 includes 100 different templates, each containing up to 12 sections designed for the type of document. Use single-page templates such as invoice, letter, and poster for basic documents, or choose one of the several multi-layout templates for brochures, newsletters, and other publications.
Most layouts include placeholders for your photos or pictures – simply drag and drop the selected image – and you'll be able to benefit from all the other fantastic page layout features built into Pages itself. Although the stock designs included in Pages Templates 6.0 look great, they are also very easy to customise. You can choose your own font, change graphics, and easily combine multiple designs into a single document.
If you'd like to find out more, be sure to visit the official Pages Templates 6.0 site, and take a look at what's on offer. The full collection of 100 templates is available to buy now for $39. Definitely worth considering if you're a regular Pages user!
For a long time, I have been a very happy user of Microsoft Money. Since making the switch to a Mac, I've played the field, but still haven't found a money management application that really meets my needs (or is fun enough to keep me coming back). There's no going back – Microsoft announced last year that they would no longer be marketing Money, and they're planning to stop support for it in January 2011.
The Mac programs I have tried include MoneyDance (very nice, and capable, but doesn't really look like a Mac app), Cha-Ching (pretty, but simplistic and superficial), and iCompta (the quiet little guy at the back of the class, powerful and easy to use). The application I've used longest is iBank; having won several awards, it's an excellent application. But I'm still not entirely satisfied.
I've known of Jumsoft's Money for several years, and now and then given it a brief try, but never in much depth. Recently, I decided I really ought have a proper look at it – read on to see my conclusions.

During last Tuesday's meeting of the Alachua County School Board, Superintendent Dan Boyd made 12 appointments.
Alachua County Schools' administration is getting rearranged more than usual this year.
Usually, the superintendent makes one or two administrative appointments over the summer. During last Tuesday's meeting of the Alachua County School Board, Superintendent Dan Boyd made 12 appointments.
All the positions will be filled by people within the county.
"I have not had to go outside the school district to fill vacancies, and I don't intend to do so," Boyd said.
The district saw more retirements than usual this year.
Notably, assistant superintendent for planning, budgeting and systems accountability Keith Birkett is retiring this month after 42 years with the district.
His position will be filled by Scott Ward, who is currently chief financial officer for Alachua County Schools.
Karen Clarke, former director of secondary curriculum, will become assistant superintendent of student support and curriculum/instruction services.
Clarke's position in the curriculum department will be filled by Donna Jones, who was principal of Duval the last four years.
Lawson Brown will be principal at Duval in the fall.
Three district principals were reassigned to other schools: Jen Homard will move from Rawlings Elementary to Littlewood Elementary, Katherine Munn will move from Littlewood to Oak View Middle and Kevin Purvis will move from Oak View to Newberry High School.
Former Newberry High principal Shane Andrew was appointed executive director of facilities for Alachua County Schools.
Four schools will get first-time principals: Daniel Burney at Rawlings Elementary, Holly Burton at Waldo Elementary, Bill McElroy at the Professional Academies Magnet at Loften High School and Sue Keller at A. Quinn Jones Center.
"This was a big one," school board chairwoman Eileen Roy said of the wave of appointments.
Later, Roy called for a workshop to discuss alternatives to suspending students from school.
She said research shows even one suspension increases a student's likelihood of dropping out by 30 percent.
"There's nothing good that happens when a student is out of school," she said.
As a former high school teacher, Roy acknowledged there are times when a teacher must get a student out of the classroom, but she said there must be a more productive way to deal with behavioral issues, such as counseling.
The workshop will be open to the public. No date has been set.
"Anything that we can do to reduce suspensions, and to have children in school, and in class, I'm all for it," said board member Leanetta McNealy.
Pupil progression
The board also scheduled a public hearing on the pupil progression plan for 6:30 p.m. July 23.
The plan, which must be amended and adopted every year, will be updated to include sweeping education changes passed this year by the Florida Legislature.

I rarely purchase new books for myself, but reading The Money Saving Mom's Budgetwas a no-brainer for me. I have been following Crystal Paine's blog, Money Saving Mom, since the summer of 2008. Through Money Saving Mom, I discovered "modern" couponing and the frugal blog world, and I have been a devoted follower every since. So when I learned several months ago that she was publishing a book, I knew that that this would be one title for which I would not wait. As it turned out, Crystal was kind enough to give many bloggers, including myself, a free advance reader copy, so I was able to check it out early.
I read every personal finance article that I can get my hands on, and I have read a number of books about saving money. With all the frugal blogs out there now, there is also a wealth of information on saving money on the internet. Therefore, I thought I would approach this review from the perspective of what sets this book apart – why it is different from others and why is it worth reading.
First of all, one of the main reasons that I love Crystal's blog applies to her book as well – it is extreme. I mean this in a good way, not that she never spends money and advises reusing paper plates! Rather, I mean that she goes further than other budgeting or money saving articles and books. I can't count the number of articles I've read that purport to save you hundreds of dollars a month, but are filled with advice like, "stop buying your daily latte and brew your own coffee." While this is not bad advice, it is not very applicable to someone who is not buying $4 lattes and is already frugal but is looking for ways to go further and really stretch a small budget.
Crystal's book, like her blog, does go further. Whether it's explaining advanced couponing techniques or the "drugstore game" or advocating a cash-only budget, her advice is challenging and life-changing. This is not to say that the tips are only for hard-core "frugalistas." On the contrary, most of the tips are simple. Some tips are certainly ones that I have read before, but some are unique or have a unique spin to them. Also, the book's advice is very up to date for our internet-based deal finding world, including many websites and web-based deal finding strategies.
The other main aspect that sets Crystal's book apart from other money-saving books is that it not merely a collection of money-saving tips; it advocates a lifestyle and a philosophy. That is why her book about saving money includes chapters on goal-setting and even decluttering. For Crystal, living a frugal lifestyle is not merely about making money go as far as possible, it is about a worldview that puts money in it's proper place and puts you in charge of your money. Her final chapter on contentment is really the most important chapter of the book. Without this crucial aspect of frugality, no money saving strategy will ever be enough.
Finally, a tidbit that is not part of the book itself but shows how truly Crystal lives the principles of the book, especially the last on contentment, is that Crystal is donating the entire proceeds of the book to charity. I encourage you to read her beautiful post here. I was so struck by her words on why she gave it away, "we already have more than plenty."
The Money Saving Mom's Budgetis reduced to just $8.40 on Amazon right now. At that price, you could buy one for yourself and some to give as gifts. The book would be an especially great gift for a young married coupon or for a college student or graduate. Anyone who is able to start out their adult life living these principles will have a huge advantage over their peers.
Whether you yourself are just starting out or not – whether you are looking to start saving money or are an experienced budget-er in your own right – I think this book has something to offer everyone. It is a chance to be inspired and re-focused on managing your money and taking control of your finances and your life.
I received an advance reader copy of this book to review, but I was not compensated in any other way and the opinions are my own. The link to the book is my Amazon affiliate link.

Hallowe'en isn't just the season of the witch. It's also a time for a scary amount of beer festivals.
One such begins on All Hallows' Eve at the devilishly rebranded Rat and Ratchet.
I haven't seen the Chapel Hill pub's new 'rat on red' logo in the flesh yet but pictures of the mural certainly convey the trick or treat mood.
The pub reopens at 4pm on Thursday and the festival runs until Sunday, with 45 beers promised over the weekend.
Twitter teasers from @RatBrewery have suggested beer monsters may be able to get their hands on its spiced pumpkin ale Rat O'Lantern (4.5%) while the latest litter includes Verminator (6% brown ale) and old favourite Ratsputin (7.4% Russian imperial stout).
On a less scary note but on at roughly the same time is Marsden Beer Festival, which we previewed a few days ago (see below). The three-day event at the Mechanics Hall features 20 beers from breweries near and far. It runs from 6pm on Thursday until the witching hour on Saturday.
That just about gives you enough beer recovery time for a special brewery anniversary festival at the HDM Beer Shop from Wednesday, November 6 to Saturday, November 9.
It will celebrate a "whole annum" of HDM Brewing Company, which launched last November.
We are eagerly awaiting details of the beers that will be on show at Wood Street, but so far all I know is that colab brew with Cats? Eye! Records is being bottled and will be available on the Saturday.

Events Pages
Main Events Page
First you need to create a page that shows the events.
- Go to Pages > Add New.
- Enter a title such as "Events" and any content that you want to appear at the top.
- Under Page Attributes, set Template to "Events – Upcoming" (list format) or "Events – Calendar" (monthly calendar).

Monthly Calendar Tips
Here are tips for using the "Events – Calendar" template.
- You can go to Settings > General to make Week Starts On Sunday instead of Monday (the WordPress default).
- If your theme has a sidebar, it is recommended to hide it to allow the calendar more space. See the Options box when editing your page to hide the sidebar.
See Page Templates for more information.
Event Categories
Optionally organize events into categories such as children, classes, etc. You can then use a widget in the Events Sidebar to list the categories or link to them from your menu. Some of our themes do not have a sidebar. Instead, they automatically list event categories in the header.
- Go to Events > Categories.
- Complete the form to add a category.
- View, edit and delete them on the right.
Managing Events

Recurring Events
Events can be set to recur weekly, monthly or yearly on the same day. When an event ends, its dates are automatically moved forward. You can use this feature by choosing an option in the Recurrence field (see screenshot above). You may optionally provide a date for automatic recurrence to end after.
Install the Custom Recurring Events add-on plugin for additional options like "every 2 weeks" and "every second Sunday". The plugin has its own User Guide.
Are your events not recurring? See the Troubleshooting section below.
Event Widgets
Go to Appearance > Widgets and drag widgets into the Events Sidebar (if your theme supports a sidebar). These widgets will appear on all event-related pages.
You can show any widgets in a sidebar but the CT Events widget is especially relevant. It can show upcoming or past events. It's also useful for showing upcoming events on the homepage.
Read the Widgets guide for more information.
Event Registration
There are several solutions you can use for event registration.
- A basic solution is to use a form plugin like Contact Form 7, Ninja Forms or WPForms to embed a registration form into your event's content (using a shortcode). These are free and will email you each registration (form submission). Ninja Forms and WPForms can also store submissions in your WordPress admin area and you can buy an add-on to accept payments.
- Tickera is a WordPress plugin made specifically for selling event tickets.
- If you are using a church management system (ChMS), it may have an event registration feature that you can link out to. You can use the Registration URL field for this and it will cause a Registration button to show.
- If you need something more sophisticated (e.g. selling tickets), consider linking out to a service like EventBrite (free for free events), Bizzabo or Yapsody. TypeForm is another possibility. You can use the Registration URL field for this also (see screenshot above).
Please let us know what works best for you so we can refine these tips for other churches.
Photo Galleries
Photo galleries can be embedded in event content. This is something you may want to do after an event has ended or to show photos from a previous occurrence of the event. See the Galleries guide for information.
Event Troubleshooting
There are some things you can check if your events are not working as expected.
Event Not Showing
- Make sure the event has a Start Date or End Date that is today or future in order for it to show on Upcoming Events.
- If your events page is not showing events, make sure it is using the Events – Upcoming (or Events – Past) template.
- If events are not showing in the CT Events widget, make sure the widget is set to show Upcoming or Past accordingly.
Event Not Recurring
- Check your event to be sure that it is set to recur as expected.
- Are you using a caching plugin? If so, be aware that caching plugins can interfere with WordPress's ability to run scheduled tasks, such as moving an event's date forward, publishing scheduled posts, etc. You should setup a cron job manually to ensure various WordPress maintenance is completed.
- There are other reasons WordPress may not be firing scheduled tasks. Install Debug Bar and Debug Bar Cron then click "Debug" at the top of your admin area. If the "Cron" section shows all dates in the past then WordPress's simulated cron is not executing as expected and you should setup a cron job manually.

The actors strike has severely curtailed commercial production on public property in Los Angeles County, with August shoots barely exceeding the record low in July.
Total production days last month amounted to only 215, down 61% from the same month a year ago, according to the Entertainment Industry Development Corp.
July's total of 190 — representing a 66% decline from July 1999 — set a record for the lowest level of production since the EIDC began tracking seven years ago.
EIDC rep Morrie Goldman said ad producers are either shooting outside Los Angeles or on soundstages in order to avoid the disruption of pickets. He also noted that the August shoots were likely hurt by the unavailability of permits for downtown Los Angeles during an 11-day period because of the Democratic National Convention.
Steve Caplan of the Assn. of Independent Commercial Producers said overall production levels remain consistent with pre-strike levels. "Production is strong except for Los Angeles and New York," he said. "But I believe there is more of an inclination to start shooting again in Los Angeles."
Foreign shoots
Production company executives say that Canada, Australia, France, Italy and Spain are the most popular destinations for shooting American spots. "The crews in foreign locations are becoming more accustomed to dealing with American spots," one exec said.
Some Canadian locations are so booked up that crews are virtually unavailable, said commercial producer Steve Netburn of Angel City Prods. "Nobody wants to deal with picketers, so they're going to places in the middle of nowhere like Oklahoma," he added.
Leaders of the Screen Actors Guild and the American Federation of Television & Radio Artists, which struck advertisers on May 1, insist that overall production levels and quality have declined significantly since the strike started.
Overall Los Angeles production for August was off 19.5% compared with August 1999 as permitted days totaled 2,284. The downtown slowdown affected motion picture shoots, which were off 28% to 737 days, while TV rose 12% to 1,237.

Director: Zhang Yimou
Country: China
Year 2017
Time: 104 minutes
This story takes place in the 11th Century in Northwest China. A band of soldiers, disguised as merchants, led by William (Matt Damon) and Tovar (Pedro Pascal) are going to China in an attempt to bring back gun powder (black powder in the film) and get rich. Their plans are thrown a bit off track when they are attacked by bandits. They manage to escape but during the night they are attacked by something totally different. William manages to cut off an arm of their monstrous assailant but the next day they face an army stationed at the Great Wall. This is when things really get interesting.
When I first saw the commercials for this movie, I thought "Oh, Chinese movie the monster must be a dragon". It turns out that I was very wrong about that. The monster is referred to as a tao tei. The only thing I will say about that is the CGI people did an excellent job in creating them. The story is a very exciting adventure with some funny lines between Damon and Pascal. The battle scenes were also very well done. Jing Tian as General Lin, the leader of an all female corps does a good job of acting as well as Willem Dafoe as Sir Ballard who had also come to China for gunpowder but became an English teacher instead.
I think that this was a very good example of cooperation between China and the United States. Some US/China movies are not very good due to poor acting choices by the Americans. Matt Damon was a very smart choice as the lead. The script was written by US writers but they did a very credible job creating a Chinese story. I would give this 4 stars out of 5 because one scene was a bit slow and I would have liked a bit more history given in the beginning of the film because I do like history.

Service Provider Voice Core Market Outlook is Stabilizing, Forecasts Dell'Oro Group
Voice over LTE and IP Multimedia Subsystem Are Growth Catalysts
Feb 04, 2013, 09:00 EST
REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Feb. 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Dell'Oro Group, the trusted source for information about the networking and telecommunications industries, reported that service provider voice core equipment spending over the next five years is expected to remain approximately constant at nearly $7 billion per year. This market has been in decline over the past five years. Growth segments such as IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) Core, Voice Application Servers and Session Border Controllers (SBC) are forecast to offset declines in mature product segments such as Softswitch and Media Gateway.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20101012/SF80035LOGO)
"What has changed is that service providers are now offering commercial Voice over LTE systems in Korea and the United States. The underlying IMS architecture enables not just voice, but also messaging, file transfer, and video calls. As service providers deploy these services, they will be more effective in competing with Over-the-Top services that consumers purchase directly with their smartphones," said Chris DePuy, Vice President at Dell'Oro Group. "We expect to see a significant increase in IMS-based commercial deployments over the next year," concluded DePuy.
Projections for the Session Border Controller market remain essentially unchanged despite volatile results from some vendors in this market. The forecast report also includes Voice over LTE (VoLTE) subscribers, IMS Core equipment, Softswitch and Media Gateway equipment, and Enterprise Session Border Controllers. Markets are covered for vendors such as Acme Packet, Alcatel-Lucent, Broadsoft, GENBAND, Huawei, Metaswitch, Nokia-Siemens Networks, Sonus, and ZTE.
About the Report
The Dell'Oro Group Carrier IP Telephony 5-Year Forecast Report offers a complete overview of the Carrier IP Telephony industry with tables covering manufacturers' revenue, average selling prices, license/channel shipments for IMS Core (CSCF and HSS), softswitches, media gateways, session border controllers, and voice application servers. The report also includes an analysis of VoLTE. To purchase this report, contact Julie Learmond-Criqui at +1.650.622.9400 x244, or email at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Charles Tillman isn't wasting time on life after football.
The former Bears cornerback — one of the best defensive players in an illustrious franchise history — is reportedly training to be an FBI agent, according to the Chicago Tribune.
Tillman turns 37 in February and last played in the NFL in 2015 with the Carolina Panthers. His age is an issue, as the Tribune notes, FBI guidlines stipulate a candidate cannot be 37 at time of appointment, meaning Tillman had to act fast if he wanted to become a special agent.
Tillman studied criminal justice at the University of Louisiana-Lafayette.
In his 12-year NFL career, Tillman appeared in 168 games, tallying 38 interceptions, 141 passes defensed and an incredible 44 forced fumbles. He jarred 10 balls loose in 2012 alone and earned his own wrestling move nickname for his ball-smacking prowess — the Peanut Punch.
Now Tillman apparently is taking his punching talents to Quantico, Virginia.

I field many requests from people looking for Wilshire Corridor rentals, so I would like to answer some common questions I receive.
The Wilshire Corridor consists for the most part of high-rise condominium buildings, each unit being owned by a private party. There are a few apartment complexes, but when people think Wilshire Corridor they think of the luxury full-amenity condo buildings.
Below are answers to some of the questions I often get from people wishing to rent on the Corridor.
Q: Is it possible to get a short-term rental?
A: No. Most, if not all, the homeowners associations of these buildings don't allow less than a year's rental. There is no way around this.
Q: Can I have a pet?
A: Yes and no. Some buildings allow pets, usually with a size restriction. Some don't. And even if the building does allow pets, the individual owner of the property may not. Your agent will have to ask.
Q: How expensive is it to rent on the Corridor?
A: For the full-amenity buildings, the minimum lease is going to be around $2,500, but more commonly it will start around $3,000. The median price is around $4,250. The highest leased over the past year was a three-bedroom at The Carlyle for $15,000 a month and there is presently a three-bedroom, unit available at The Californian for $24,950 a month.
Q: Are the units furnished or unfurnished?
A: You may find the odd unit that is furnished, but usually they are unfurnished.
Q: Do I have to pay the homeowners' dues?
A: No. The owner of the unit pays the dues.
Q: What is included in the rent?
A: Your additional expense will include utilities, such as gas, electric and cable. The owner pays for water. However, there may be an instance where utilities are included such as at the Wilshire Regent, but that is rare. Everything else is included in the rent.
Q: Where do I park?
A: In some of the full-service buildings you can park your own car, but in most cases the valet will take your car and park it. You may call down before leaving and have them bring the car around.
Q: Where do my guests park?
A: In most cases, if you just have a few guests, the valet will handle their cars. If you are having a party then you will be allowed a certain number of parking spaces above which you will need to pay.
Q: Do I have to tip the valet?
A: In most cases no. There are a few buildings where it might be O.K. occasionally, but most of the buildings forbid tipping. You can always give a gift over the holidays, which is what the residents typically do.
Q: Can I use the facilities?
A: Absolutely. As a tenant in the building you have almost the same rights as the owner.
Q: What are the rules:
A: When you move in your landlord is required to provide you with the homeowners rules and regulations by which you must abide.
Q: Is the price negotiable?
A : Everything is negotiable. You can always ask
Q: Can I write a lease option agreement?
A: Probably not, since a seller is not going to want to tie in the the option at today's prices. However you can request first right to buy should the owner wish to sell.
Q: Is there a move-in move-out fee.
A: Almost certainly yes, plus a deposit held by the building until they are satisfied that nothing has been damaged.

On another note, the Horse Palace, the stables where these horses were housed was sold. The owners were in their 80s and could no longer afford to keep up the stables. Another condo project? Or will the stables be saved by the city. You can read more on The Gazette site.

Ford Mustang at the Empire State Building: Celebrating 50 Years
The Ford Mustang is one of America's most recognizable icons, so it makes sense to celebrate its 50th anniversary with a trip to another iconic American landmark—the Empire State Building. On April 16-17, the all-new 2015 Mustang convertible will climb 86 floors of the Empire State Building to the famous observatory, recreating the same feat it accomplished 50 years ago.
Related: 2015 Ford Mustang Specs and Details
"New York is one of the greatest cities in the world, and it's the place where the Ford Mustang Story began 50 years ago," said Mark Fields, Ford chief operating officer. "We're thrilled to be visiting the architectural landmark that has been the heart of the Manhattan skyline for 83 years with the newest generation of the car that is the soul of Ford Motor Company."
Because there is no crane that can reach the 86th floor observatory and the high spire prevents a helicopter from placing the 2015 Ford Mustang easily at that level, there is only one viable option for transport—the building's elevators. A technical team is currently disassembling the new Mustang into sections that will allow it to fit easily into the elevators, with the plan to assemble the pony car when it finally reaches its destination 86 stories high.
Will you be making the trip to the Big Apple to check out the Ford Mustang at the Empire State Building this April?

by Thu Huong Le
The typhoon that struck the Philippines several days ago once again reminds us of the vulnerability of humans against nature.
Considered one of the strongest storms making landfall on record in the world, it crushed houses, roads, airports, basic infrastructure and everything in its way with winds of at least 225km per hour.
Photographs of the dead lying and desperate survivors appealing for help are truly heartrending.
While our heartfelt condolences are with the hundreds of thousands of dead and missing, it's also time for Vietnamese officials to re-examine our own cities' capabilities of dealing with such a disaster even if there's only a slightest possibility of it befalling us.
No doubt we were well-prepared for storm Haiyan, with prompt, massive evacuations of more than 500,000 people in central areas, close monitoring of the storm's path and comprehensive information available especially for those living in high-risk areas and working at sea.
Experts suggested that even a weaker storm could cause havoc in Tacloban, a city of about 220,000 people, due to poverty and shoddy construction.
For us, cities like Ha Noi did not suffer a serious blow as Haiyan was weakened by the time it hit northern Viet Nam.
But days before landfall in Ha Noi, widespread worry about the situation was a stark reminder of the historic flooding in 2008 that claimed 18 lives in the capital.
Experts have long warned that Ha Noi lacks a long-term flood prevention plan. Even downtown, streets end up underwater due to torrential rain in the past several months.
In June this year, 20 new flood areas appeared when tropical storm Bebinca dropped 96mm of rain, forcing the city to install new drainage systems. Rains throughout the year have created many new and unmapped flood areas.
In August, heavy rains flooded many downtown streets, with many black spots 40-50cm deep. That month was the second time the city had to open its floodgates to save Ha Noi since the historic flood in 2008.
Back in 2006, the city People's Committee approved a seven-year project worth more than VND6 trillion (US$370 million) to improve the drainage system.
Down south, in HCM City, the rising tide has become part of daily life, disrupting people's lives and causing serious economic consequences.
Last month, experts at the Viet Nam Urban Forum in central Da Nang City invoked the need to develop more climate-resilient cities and foster policies to limit the impact of extreme weather on urban communities.
With 30 per cent of the population living in urban areas, urban planning must take into account the importance of building up the resilience of people living and working in these areas, according to Diane Archer, researcher at the International Institute for Environment and Development.
This includes tasks such as building climate-resilient housing, enhancing neighbourhood activities and promoting social capital to build community resilience, improving infrastructure and developing policies to regulate buildings in hazard-prone areas.
Cities across the world are also taking notice of the need to become more resilient.
During my recent interview tour in the south-central Chinese Province of Hunan, we were introduced to the concept of the "dual-oriented society", which refers to urban planning that is both resource-saving and environmentally-friendly.
The Changsha-Zhuzhou-Xiangtan National Pilot Zone was introduced in 2007 as a pilot area for implementing a dual-oriented society in three cities in Hunan Province.
It requires vast changes in all areas of urban planning to conserve resources, innovate urban-rural linkages and improve urban infrastructure construction.
At the micro-level, they even encourage people to ride public bicycles, with bike rental systems set up in several cities. Residents can ride the bikes for an extremely low cost.
While each city must cope with its own challenges in becoming more resilient, all are facing the pressure of rising urban populations, economic uncertainties, rapid migration and infrastructure development.
But the situation in the Philippines once again reminds us that cities need to act long before disaster takes its toll. — VNS

DURHAMVILLE -- Filling a desperate need in an already ailing population of volunteers lending their time and talents, St. Paul's First United Methodist Church is ready to dispatch its "Cadillac" of shower trailers to Schoharie County.
On Saturday, the 44-foot-long trailer-turned shower facility will "roll out" of St. Paul's on Sayles Street to its first stop in Middleburgh. A walkathon will be held Sunday at the Earlville United Methodist Church to raise funds to support the $35,000 project. The Earlville church has set a goal of raising $8,000 to donate to the project. Project Leader David Woodcock estimated that an outstanding balance of about $5,000 remains on the project's expenses.
After four months, the trailer, donated by CT Express of Durhamville, has been transformed from a typical hauler to a shower facility that will allow volunteers to stay at disaster sites longer and be able to provide more services to help in the recovery of devastated areas.
Six shower stalls were built in the trailer, along a narrow hallway running the length of the space. Each shower is cordoned off with walls and a door and accompanied by a small sink, vanity mirror, light and towel hooks.
A high-efficiency washer and dryer were also installed to allow users to do laundry. Woodcock said a 50-foot cord will provide power to the trailer when plugged into an electric range outlet at its destination. Propane and sewage hookups will also provide service to the facility.
Before it leaves Saturday, the outside will be decorated with the United Methodist Volunteers in Mission logo, along with a list of project donors.
The inspiration was born from Woodcock's own familiarity with disaster relief sites, experienced again in April during a trip to Middleburgh with a dozen others from Oneida, Sherrill and the Utica areas. On that trip volunteers relied on the pseudo-shower facilities in a janitor's closet.
The shower trailer will be finished just in time to be used by teams anticipated to arrive in Middleburgh June 18.
"There's still a long way to being recovered," Woodcock said of the areas devastated by last year's flooding.
Despite the gradual return of families to their homes each week, there's still a significant amount of work to be done. Woodcock said the group originally estimated recovery to take two to three years. They're now guessing it'll be more like five.
In all stages of repair, homes still need to be mudded out, sanitized and rebuilt. Outside of the area, few are aware of the amount of work that remains. "It's a big hurdle," he said.
The need for aid continues as volunteers dwindle, Woodcock said.
Woodcock was recently named disaster coordinator for the Upper New York Conference of United Methodist Churches, which encompasses the entire state, outside of New York City. He will be responsible for unifying all districts of the organization and prompting discussion and planning for disaster relief. In order to efficiently respond to natural disasters, he said procedures, contact information and locations for volunteer centers are all important.
In the wake of a disaster, the scramble to coordinate volunteers always delays a response, particularly when volunteers in the area are dealing with the disaster personally.
Serving in the wake of disasters is important to Woodcock and others in the St. Paul congregation.
A few months after Hurricane Katrina ravaged the Gulf Coast, Woodcock went to Mississippi to help.
"From there I was hooked," he said. "There's so much that needs to be done and there's so much that can be done by volunteers."
Volunteer corps can provider faster, better orchestrated and more helpful response than many governmental agencies, he said.
CT Express, owned by Tim Janes, has made a five-year commitment to transport the trailer to wherever it's needed, which can't be underestimated, Woodcock said. Janes came on board with the project after being approached by Woodcock about donating a used trailer. He considered it and when Woodcock revisited the proposal, Janes responded by showing him a photograph of a house floating down a flooded river.
"We have to do something," Janes said.
While everyone may have a bad day once in a while, it hardly compares with the devastation from disasters, Janes said.
Nearly 40 individuals and more than a dozen churches donated to the project, including, Donewell Trailers, Simchik Trash Hauling, Gibb Corr Electric, Comfort Systems, Bruce Stauffer Construction, Smith Flooring and Decorating, GEA Farm Systems, the Gorman Foundation, Oneida Rotary, Seven O's, Kimes, Oneida Plumbing Supply, Ranz and Cook, City Electric, Zero Draft, Thompson Appliances, Precision Woods, Cornue Woodworking and Liverpool Lumber.
To contribute to the shower trailer project or to volunteer as part of St. Paul's Methodist Church's disaster response team, call the church at (315) 363-1921.
United Methodist Church Shower Trailer Events
A "roll out" for the disaster mobile shower trailer will take place at 2 p.m. at St. Paul's United Methodist Church at 551 Sayles Street in Oneida.
Donors to the project will be recognized and tours of the completed facility will be offered. The trailer will ceremoniously "roll out" to head towards its first stop in Middleburgh where disaster volunteers are currently working on flood relief.
Checks and other donations can be made out to St. Paul's UMC, 551 Sayles St., Oneida, NY 13421, attn: Shower Trailer Project. "Shower Trailer Project" should be written in the memo line of the check.
The 3-mile Shower Trailer Walk-a-thon will begin at 2 p.m. at the Earlville United Methodist Church at 20 North Main Street (Route 12B). Registration starts at 1:15 p.m.
Participants will be walking a loop starting from the church heading north to Craine Lake Road, going around Craine Lake and returning to the church. Refreshments will be served to participants and support individuals following the walk.
All proceeds from the Walk-a-thon will go to the Shower Trailer Project.
Walkers are asked to register so volunteers can estimate the number of participants and refreshment needs. Register online at http://Walkathon.epfumc.org; pledge sheets can be downloaded from the site. For help or questions, contact Joelle Faulks at firstname.lastname@example.com or call (315) 569-2173.

Last Friday President Obama signed into law the Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act (FAST Act), or the transportation reauthorization bill. Funding for policies that provide access to sidewalks, bike paths, and Safe Routes to School was ultimately preserved – and even got a slight increase – in this five year bill. The programs now reside under the "STP Setaside" (formerly known as the Transportation Alternatives Program), and there were even some policy improvements to the programs as well.
Given that at the beginning of this year, the House was determined to completely eliminate all of these important programs that help keep our communities active, being able not only to preserve but to get a slight bump in funding and modest changes is quite the amazing victory.
Importantly, the five year bill and essentially programmatic status quo means that there will be seamless continuity for state and local partners for the next five years as they continue to plan... Read More

Bug Exterminator in Laramie
Making a good decision on which Laramie WY Pest Control Company to choose is very important for all the homeowners. Your home is one of the biggest investments you have made in your life. You and your loved ones live there. Isn't it?
While there are many pests who are very annoying others can completely damage your property and also make your home unsafe. For instance, termite infestation that goes undetected for a long time can damage the structure of your home. This is exactly when you need a good pest control service- it is now a necessity.
Licensing & Background Check
The very first thing to check when you are looking for pest control service is the certifications. Most of the reputed and established companies have license. Be sure to ask the agency whether they have the license to carry out the work. Also, you should make sure that the certifications are current or not.
As a rule, you should have a word with the experts of Better Business Bureau to find if the pest controls company you have chosen has any complaints from the existing customers. This can help you know which specific companies you should avoid.
Choosing The Best Service
Once you have chosen the list of top companies take time to find the best one who can do a quick inspection on your property before proceeding with the process. Top companies won't charge you a single penny and they can also send a qualified professional who can do this job at a price you can easily afford.
The Laramie Wyoming professional should take some time to sit with you and discuss what exactly they can do to get rid of the pests. If they don't answer your question clearly or have confusions you should thank them for their time and look for the next company. Rushed inspectors don't value customers. You are just a number to them and they will offer poor service.
Either the inspector or the company will give you a written proposal. Go through all the small details of the proposal as it helps you learn about the professionalism about the pest control companies.
They will also show you the diagrams of the affected areas and give you a complete explanation of the proposal. Read the online reviews of the company before choosing the experts for the task. Keep all these tips in mind to choose the best services.

Some Common Q & A's
Uk Question: How Much Does Pest Control Cost?
I'M Not Wealthy But I Have Bed Bugs And I Cannot Stand Them Livng Like This. It Has Made My Life Hell And I Feel Like Moving House But I Cannot Afford To. Do You Know Any Ways I Could Get A Pest Control Company Who Charges Less?
In U.S. and Canada, they charge a few hundred per room. The few pest control companies that I asked charge $200 to $400 per room. But be prepared to pay a lot more than this, since it takes at least 3 visits on average to remove an infestation.

What Is The Best Pellet Shape For Pest Control?
Wondering What The Best Shape Of Pellet Is For Killing Groundhogs With. I Have A 100Fps Rifle.
Currently I Use Destroyer Pellets
What is the best pellet shape for pest control(groundhogs)?
You should always use the pellet your rifle prefers(accuracy), but generally speaking, domed pellets perform best on small game, while wadcutters are the best choice for pest birds.
I have a 100fps rifle:
I sure hope you mean, that you have one that "claims" 1000fps. Most air rifles that claim "up to" a maximum muzzle velocity of 1000fps, actually deliver 850 to 900fps with average weight pellets.
Currently I use Destroyer pellets:
Well, since you're already using a 7.9gr Crosman pellet. Why not try the Crosman Premier Domed Light(7.9gr). The Destroyer is more of a pest bird pellet.
Groundhog = head shots only
The exception would be if you were shooting them with a relatively very powerful(50ft-lb+) rifle
Have You Ever Hired A Professional Exterminator For Pest Control? Was It Worth It?
We Have Mice, And My Fear Of Mice Is Unreasonable! I Can'T Even Get Up In The Mornings Without Having My Roommate Check For Mice In The Traps...I Dont' Want To See Them--Dead Or Alive! If I Hire A Professional, Will They Make This Elimination Process Easier? I'Ve Heard That They'Ll Just Set Traps And Seal Up Holes Like You Could Do Yourself, But Idk...If They Can Rid My Home Of Mice And Keep The Mice Out So They Won'T Get Back Inside In The Future, It'Ll Be Completely Worth It!
I hired an exterminator once and he charged $100 to spray around the outside of the house with some kind of spray for ants. They were back the next spring. I called the company and was told I would have to have them come every 3 months (that's $400 a year) if I wanted to be guaranteed that I wouldn't have any more ant issues.
I did some research and found a product that not only worked but wasn't toxic to pets and children and works better than their poisonous brew.
For a mouse problem, no one can guarantee that they won't be back. It helps to fill in cracks, gaps and all that but the little buggers need such a tiny space to get in that it would take years to find all the little holes they use. And all a professional will do is put out traps and baits and you'll still have to deal with the mess. I'd be very surprised if they would even bother to fill in any holes or gaps.
Do yourself and your budget a favor; go get some D-Con tray baits and place those out of the reach of children and pets but where you are seeing evidence of mice The mice will eat the bait in the trays and die shortly thereafter. And with D-Con they won't smell; it dries them up so the body doesn't stink. Can't say that with any other. I know a lot of people who tried other stuff and ended up having to live the dead rotting animal smell in their houses for months.
And remember if they rid your home of pests forever; they won't have any more work! They want the pests to keep coming back so you keep calling them to come take are of it. Just go get the D-Con and be done with it. You won't see a thing. I hate traps just for that reason.
Will An Ultrasonic Pest Controller Upset House Rabbits? (Device Used Upstairs, Rabbits Downstairs..)?
From the Safe Home Products website regarding ultrasonic devices:
"Pests are repelled because they cannot adapt to the constantly changing array of complex ultrasonic and sonic sounds. The ultrasonic sounds will not harm humans, dogs, cats birds or fish. But do keep unit away from pet tarantulas, mice, hamsters, gerbils and rabbits."
Ortho Or Bayer Home Pest Control?
I Just Noticed Over The Weekend A Roach On My Kitchen Floor. I Have Never Seen Any Before The 10 Years I Have Lived In My House. Has Anyone Had Experience With Both The Ortho And Bayer Bug Sprays? I Need Some Advice Which Would Be More Effective Inside And Safe For My Dog As Well? I Would Like To Try One Of These Products Before Contracting With Terminix Or Someone Like That.
Thanks For Your Feedback!
I am not familiar with either of these bug sprays. Generally bug sprays are good for flushing out cockroaches but you would be better off using some gel bait. We use Advion from Dupont
You need to look carefully at where to bait; this is when we would use a spray (to flush them out to identify their breeding grounds).
Where are you finding the roaches and what do they look like?
This info is important so that you can identify where they are; different roaches have different habitats and poisoning can be better targeted when you know more.
A pyrethrine spray would be a fast knockdown but no lasting residual, so won't get to the root of the infestation, do you know what the active ingredient in the sprays are?
Are you in a flat or a large mansion? the source maybe your neighbour if you live in an apartment - take a pic, send it to us and we can tell you what it is (maybe) and where to look.
If you have no success yourself call a local pest controller, not a national !!!
