Here is How Data Analytics is changing the Oil and Gas Industry
In 2006, marketing commentator Michael Palmer had blogged, "Data is just like crude. It's valuable, but if unrefined it cannot really be used." After nine years, the statement still holds true across any industry that depends on large volumes of data. It is true that until and unless, data is not broken down into pieces and analyzed, it holds little value. As the world becomes more receptive to the advantages of big data, the oil industry does not seem to be far behind. If the huge amount of data is just stored, then it has little worth and so, for it to be useful, itRead More →

It's not your imagination – your old iPhone® device has gotten slower!
Is your iPhone not performing as well as it used to? Has it been freezing when you need it the most? Have you felt frustrated as a result? Well, if it helps you feel any better, you're not alone. It's your battery and many others are feeling the same frustration.
iPhone batteries have been in the news over the last few weeks . . . What does it all mean? How does it affect your iPhone device? To keep it simple, Apple Inc.® has confirmed the slowdown is caused by the updates on their older phones.
Today's mobile phones are powered by lithium-ion batteries because they are thin, lightweight, and powerful. Unfortunately, these lithium-ion batteries become less effective as they age which means they no longer hold a charge as well as they used to and your phone, in turn, has a shorter battery life. When the battery fails to provide adequate power, the phone shuts itself off. Of course, there is never really a good time for this to happen because it might mean you missed out on that perfect photo of your kids being silly or you were unable to hear the driving directions to your destination. You might have been on an important business call when your iPhone device decided to shut down so now you're stuck waiting for it to restart so you can call back and apologize.
Apple Inc. addressed the issue of shutdowns in January 2017; they released iOS® 10.2.1, an update to the iPhone operating system which allows the phone to dynamically manage power consumption if the battery is not capable of delivering peak power. The power-saving measures may result in longer app launch times, backlight dimming, and lower speaker volume. These sacrifices are made to reserve full functionality in more vital areas such as cellular connection, camera quality, GPS accuracy, and most importantly, to avoid unexpected shutdowns.
The expected lifespan of an iPhone battery is 500 cycles, which typically correlates to about two years of average use. Most iPhone device users would like to hear their phone will last longer than that. Changing the battery will make a big difference in the useful lifespan of your iPhone device.
Changing the battery in your iPhone device is best left to experienced technicians; the team at Experimac Winchester is here to help. Bring your device to Experimac Winchester today for a free battery diagnostic and same-day battery replacement. No appointment is necessary and we guarantee you'll be pleased with our customer service.

Stephen Hawking cancels lectures over ill health
Celebrated physicist Professor Stephen Hawking has been forced to cancel a number of public engagements because of ill health, his university has confirmed.
They include this year's prestigious Reith Lectures, which have been postponed by the BBC.
A spokeswoman for Cambridge University, where the 73-year-old cosmologist is director of research in the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, said: "Prof Hawking is not very well and a few public appearances have had to be cancelled."
Professor Hawking had been due to record the BBC's Reith lectures
She could not say anything more about the condition of the professor, who is thought to be the longest living survivor of motor neurone disease.
Prof Hawking had been due to record the Reith lectures at the Royal Institution in London on Thursday evening. They were due to be broadcast on BBC Radio 4, starting on Tuesday November 24.
In his talks, the professor planned to describe the nature of black holes and answer questions from BBC Radio 4 listeners.
A BBC spokesman said: " Unfortunately, Thursday's recording of the BBC Reith Lectures with Professor Stephen Hawking is no longer going ahead as he is unwell.
"We are postponing the broadcast of the lectures on Radio 4 and are liaising with Professor Hawking and his team about the next steps once he is better."
Prof Hawking had earlier said he hoped his lectures would "encourage people to imagine and explore the possibilities of science - both the known and the as-yet unknown".
In a statement released by the BBC, he said he intended to describe the "remarkable properties" of black holes, "including the fact that very small black holes aren't black at all, but glow like hot bodies".
He added: " We should never stop trying to tell these extraordinary stories from science and I hope my Reith lecture will enthuse a new generation to develop ideas that will have an impact on our understanding of the world and never to be overwhelmed by the task of discovery."
Although unwell, the state of the professor's health is not understood to be a serious cause for concern.
Prof Hawking, who rose to fame in 1988 with the publication of his best-selling book A Brief History of Time, was diagnosed with incurable motor neurone disease at Oxford University when he was just 21.
He was given only two years to live but defied the odds and is now believed to be the longest-living survivor of the condition, which destroys the nerves that affect movement but does not impair the brain.
The disease robbed Prof Hawking of movement and an operation to save his life ended his ability to speak naturally.
His computerised speech synthesiser - controlled by cheek movements - has given him one of the most instantaneously recognisable voices in the world.

I projected a 120" image on my wall only after one coat of the SW ProClassic Interior Acrylic Latex (smooth enamel finish for trim & doors) Satin, Extra White B20 WQ 8051 (sold in Canada) and was just blown away by the quality of the picture! I am waiting for this coat dry and will add a 2nd coat later. The results are amazing! Real deep blacks, with vibrant colours and so much more POP in the image compare to my old daylite matt white screen. The key to this do it yourself screen is prep work, such as the wall wood studs are flush, install new drywall, smooth out the surface and mudding & sanding. I used 2 coats of primer with sanding after each coat of primer. My wall was so smooth only after one coat of the screen paint, I will not have to sand for the 2nd coat. The time spent so far has been about one week. Thanks for the great advice from Projector Central! This one is winner.

For the first time since 2000, we're going to see the mortgage market dominated by purchase activity as the refinance share drops below 50 percent.
Chicago, IL (PRWEB) November 20, 2013
The Federal Savings Bank is enthusiastic to inform its first-time homebuyer walk in clients that according to a recent economic outlook from Freddie Mac, the housing market is expected to shift from predominantly refinance activity to one dominated by first-time home buyers. The market shift would mark the first-time homebuyers looking to make a new home purchase account for the majority of mortgage activity since 2000.
"With the close of 2013 will also come a major transition in the housing finance industry," said Frank Nothaft, vice president and chief economist at Freddie Mac. "For the first time since 2000, we're going to see the mortgage market dominated by purchase activity as the refinance share drops below 50 percent."
Mortgage refinance activity has represented the majority of all mortgage applications as a result of lower interest rates.
Report Highlights
The economic outlook predicted that the economy would grow at a rate between 2.5 and 3.0 percent. Other estimates expect the economy to slow down slightly in the fourth quarter of 2013 before picking back up again after the new year. The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development recently predicted that the U.S. economy would grow to just below Freddie Mac's prediction of 2.1 percent in the fourth quarter. For next year, the OECD estimated that U.S. gross domestic product would grow by at least 3 percent.
Freddie Mac's predictions also suggested that interest rates would rise throughout 2014 up to the 5 percent range for a 30-year fixed rate mortgage. While homebuyers have been enjoying low cost mortgage options over the past year while rates have remained near record lows, most housing markets are expected to remain affordable next year. Higher rates will end up strengthening the mortgage market as home prices and sales will reach sustainable levels of growth.
"And with mortgage rates rising, we're also going to see the home-sales gains as well as the impressive house price growth begin to moderate to more sustainable levels," Nothaft stated.
Home values will continue to appreciate, but at a more moderate pace between 5 and 6 percent. Multi-family property investments are expected to rise next year at a rate comparable to the early 2000s.
Multifamily Production Report
The National Association of Homebuilders appeared to agree with Freddie Mac's predictions, as the most recent Multifamily Production Index revealed that builders remained positive in their outlook on the multifamily housing market. Despite falling slightly, the index score was above 50 points for the seventh consecutive quarter, indicating the more homebuilders believe conditions are improving.
"Multifamily developers remain positive about where the market is right now, despite the dip in the index," said Dean Henry, NAHB's Multifamily Leadership Board chairman and CEO of Legacy Partners Residential. "There are challenges still facing the industry such as availability of labor and rising cost of some building materials, but the demand for apartments and condos is strong enough for developers to proceed in most markets."
Contact the Federal Savings Bank, a veteran owned bank, to find out more about low rate mortgage options.

Delusions of control seem built into the human mind, even when they aren't comforting. More than a few people, for example, would prefer to think hurricanes are punishments for abortions than to think catastrophes happen for reasons that have nothing to do with us. Secular people like me, who don't believe in a controlling deity, put faith instead in their own controlling intelligence—that combination of technology and willpower that convinces people fate is always in their own hands. Find the right finance guru, and your investments would pay off; find the right personal guru, and you'd have the life you want. Because it's all up to me. I'm in charge of my own life.
Many cultures offer a variety of traditional practices to remind people that this is ridiculous. Monotheistic religions proverbially tell believers they can't know the thoughts of the deity ("we'll be there Tuesday, God willing"); and the Buddhist aphorism that "mind makes world" reminds you that you have sway over your reactions to events, not the events themselves.
But, trust me, an even better antidote is having a big honking tornado (or something very close) rip through your neighborhood. Yesterday I watched a tree bang on my window as if it was panicked to be stuck outside, and then walked through a streetscape of broken branches, a couple of shattered store windows, and at least one smashed car. That was ten minutes in a few neighborhoods of the city. When a hurricane hits New York City, we'll be toast.
People have been congratulating themselves on how well they run the Earth for more than 2000 years (search the word "wonderful" on this page for an example). Yesterday I and my neighbors were reminded that we reign over the world like a spider reigns over a bathtub drain.
I'm fine with living as if we've mastered the universe. Not knowing the future, what alternatives are there? (As the New York hurricane can't be predicted, I can't do much to avoid it, and, anyway, God willing, I could end up missing it). I just think the culture in which I live, stripped of traditional reminders that as if isn't is, has lost a helpful form of human wisdom. (For ideas about the consequences thereof, try here and here. For the more practical among us, there's always bottling some water and having a plan.)

Gangplank Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
This build is all about critical strike damage and taking huge chunks of enemy champion health. It relies heavily on the Parrrley ability. You can earn easy gold early game with an avarice blade and bonus gold from Parrrley if it deals a killing blow. Executioners Calling is an inexpensive item, and its passive deals damage per second along with Gangplank's passive, Grog Soaked Blade. Once you can purchase Infinity Edge you will be doing some good damage to champions and will be able to turn the tide of team battles, assuming the ult is used properly.

This column will eventually address Jurgen Klinsmann's contract extension as U.S. national-team coach, but first, we cannot go more than a day without a mention of David Beckham's quest to bring Major League Soccer to Miami.
South Florida fans are awaiting Tuesday's county commission vote to authorize stadium negotiations. In the meantime, we hear that if this ambitious plan does materialize, Beckham aims to lure at least a few top South American and European players to his Miami team. He thinks South Florida's Latin culture, warm weather, beaches and international cachè will be huge selling points for prospective big-name players who want to extend their fan base in the United States.
MLS has always viewed Miami as a gateway to Latin American markets, and what better way to attract attention than signing recognizable players? Its proximity to South America makes it desirable to players from Brazil, Argentina and Colombia.
A source who has spoken with Beckham's associates said the soccer icon's "wish list" for Designated Players would start with the same three players most any soccer fan would pick — Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and Radamel Falcao. They are three of the best (if not the three best) players in the world, and though the Miami team doesn't even exist yet, and any potential team is at least three years from taking the field, fans are welcome to dream, right?
Barcelona's Argentine star Messi would be 29 in three years. Real Madrid's Ronaldo would be 31 and AS Monaco's Falcao, a Colombian superstar, would be 30. Any of the three would come at a steep price. The transfer fee for Ronaldo when he moved from Manchester United to Real Madrid was $130 million. Falcao's was $90 million. Recent trade rumors involving Messi suggested Barcelona could command a transfer fee as high as $300 million.
And that doesn't even include their salaries.
OK, back to reality.
The U.S. Soccer Federation announced Tuesday that Klinsmann signed a four-year contract extension that will keep him at the helm through the 2018 World Cup in Russia. He also was given the title of technical director, which formally puts him in charge of coaching education and youth development. The timing of the announcement seemed a bit curious, as most federations (including the United States in the past) wait to see World Cup results before they retain or fire coaches.
USSF president Sunil Gulati, who was in Miami for CONCACAF meetings, explained the decision on a conference call: "We've had a very good run and we want to show our support for Jurgen. But there are also pragmatic market considerations. After the World Cup, lots of things could happen. Jurgen may have other interests, we may have other interests. This is a way of making a long-term commitment to each other. Jurgen is a unique coach with unique opportunities."
Translation: Klinsmann is a hot commodity, and they don't want to lose him after the World Cup. His name already was linked to Tottenham and the Swiss national team. Gulati did not dispute those news reports came into play.
"We've obviously read some of those things," he said. "We're not oblivious to the fact that Jurgen over the last two years has had an extraordinary run with the national team and that would bring a lot of interest from the outside."
Gulati said he is impressed not only with Klinsmann's results, but with how the team is playing — with more confidence and aggression. He pointed out the Bosnia game, in which the United States rallied from down 2-0, and rather than sit on the tie, kept attacking and emerged with a 4-3 win. "We didn't sit back. That's a new mentality," he said. "Our players had the confidence to continue to press forward against a good European team, in Europe."
Gulati stressed that the deal was reached before the World Cup draw and both he and Klinsmann said it does not alter their approach heading into a daunting group in Brazil.
"It's a good feeling to know you can now lay the foundation for more things after the World Cup in player development and other areas, but a coach will always be measured by his results," Klinsmann said. "I'm a very ambitious person and I always have high expectations, so I'm not looking for any kind of comfort zone going into the World Cup. I would never take that approach because I expect us to do well and get through that very difficult group.
"There is no protection for anything. You guys are going to measure me on the results in Brazil, rightfully so."
Thumbs up to Gulati and the USSF for making the long-term commitment and not basing everything on World Cup results, like so many other countries do. Klinsmann has so many ideas on how to raise the level of the game in this country, and he needs another four years.

Emeril Lagasse and other chefs go through failed attempts, adding this seasoning, holding back on another seasoning and making other changes before presenting the finished product at their famous restaurants.
That's the way it has been for Cavaliers coach Tyronn Lue this season. He doesn't wear one of those puffy white chef hats while pacing in front of his team's bench, but the taste left in the mouths of fans after the Cavaliers wiped out the Toronto Raptors, 128-93, on May 7 suggests he has hit on the right recipe.
The Cavs battled through the regular season to finish 50-32. It was their worst record on a team with LeBron James on it since they finished 45-37 in 2007-08.
The struggles of the regular season followed them into the start of the playoffs. They needed a seventh game to eliminate the Indiana Pacers, needed overtime to beat Toronto in the first game of the semifinals and needed a buzzer beater by James to win Game 3.
The 35-point victory in Game 4 was more than just a stepping stone to the Eastern Conference finals against the winner of the Boston-Philadelphia series. It was a statement of how good the Cavaliers could be when George Hill, J.R Smith and Kevin Love get involved early in the offensive attack. Players are inspired to play better defense when they know they'll be contributing on the offensive end.
"Defensively, we're playing pretty well," Lue said after the game. "When we get stops, we're able to get out in transition and play with pace.
"This series, we made shots. A lot of guys stepped up. Having four or five guys in double figures every night is big for us."
Hill, one of four players acquired on Feb. 8 at the trading deadline, was a catalyst for the Cavs in the Toronto series. The starting point guard helps facilitate the offense so James doesn't have to do everything.
Hill missed three entire games of the Indiana series and one half of two others with a stiff back. He had 12 points in Game 4 against Toronto to go along with five assists. He had six points in the first four minutes — four of them on running dunks.
Either the Celtics or the Sixers are going to have trouble doubling James if Hill and the rest of the supporting cast continue to play as it did in closing out the Raptors.
"It was good ball movement," Hill said of the Cavs offense that shot 59.5 percent and notched 29 assists. "We set the tone early. We were pushing. It gave LeBron a break. It took (the Raptors) from laying their body on him where he was able to get to his spots and come give us a spark later in the game."
It is no surprise Hill is making the biggest contribution of the players acquired at the trading deadline. The playoff stage doesn't overwhelm the 31-year-old veteran.
Larry Nance Jr. plays only in garbage time now that Tristan Thompson is getting increased minutes. Jordan Clarkson isn't as aggressive shooting the ball as he was in the regular season.
Rodney Hood, the fourth player acquired at the deadline, reportedly refused to enter Game 4 in garbage time. The Associated Press reported Hood is not being disciplined.
The Cavaliers don't return to practice until May 10. They'll be working without knowing their next opponent if Philadelphia wins Game 5 in Boston on May 9.
"(Playing) every other day is tough on your body," Hill said. "I'm glad we got a couple days (off). We'll get to enjoy it and come back locked in ready to play whoever we have to defend."

Electrical cigarettes consist of the achievable for big enhancements commonly public wellbeing
E cigarettes (e-cigarettes) have polarised the health-related and group wellness communities in Australia and internationally.100 VG E Liquid Some experts explain them since the greatest opportunity to make enhancements to general public wellness this century, whilst working with the likely to save a great deal of many numerous numerous 1000's of lifestyle.

E-cigarettes simulate utilizing tobacco by presenting nicotine also as addressing the behavioural, sensory and social matters within the cigarette cigarette smoking cigarettes ritual.
As there's no tobacco or combustion, e-cigarettes won't produce the tar or carbon monoxide that happen to be accountable to the quantity of the wellbeing effects of cigarette smoking cigarettes cigarettes. E-cigarettes do incorporate some toxicants, but at fairly more compact levels which may be not likely to pose considerable over-all wellbeing hazards, they sometimes are thought of to commonly be substantially safer than flamable cigarettes.
When the sale, possession and utilization of nicotine-containing e-cigarettes devoid from the allow are unlawful in Australia, the devices plainly have catch the attention of people who smoke and for that reason are substantially well known. Current usage of e-cigarettes increased from 0.6% to six.6% in existing and former persons right now who smoke greater than a 3-year time period from 2010 to 2013. The pace of responders reporting which they'd "ever utilized e-cigarettes" on this populace increased from nine.6% to 19.7% in excess of the specific precise interval. In 2013, forty two.5% of customers mentioned that their present-day brand name recognize contained nicotine.
The united kingdom awareness
The united kingdom abilities a much more liberal regulatory ambiance for e-cigarettes, enabling the sale and usage of nicotine-containing types by grownups aged eighteen quite a few decades or even more.four E-cigarettes are categorised as purchaser products and may be lawfully requested on the internet and from devoted "vape" outlets, pharmacies and diverse retailers. By far the most normal bring about for making use of e-cigarettes ("vaping") will probably be to cut back the wellbeing risks of cigarette smoking cigarettes by halting or slicing down smoking cigarettes.
E-cigarettes in the intervening time are used by two.six million "vapers" in the British isles.five Considerably much more than a person million vapers are ex-smokers who certainly have switched to vaping to frequently be described as a safer substitute to utilizing tobacco cigarettes in addition to to avert relapsing into cigarette cigarette smoking.5 Long-term utilization of safer nicotine merchandise is supported as remaining a harm-reduction approach though within the British isles on condition that a landmark report of your Royal Faculty of Clinical medical professionals which concluded that:
males and females who smoke smoke predominantly for nicotine, that nicotine by by alone is simply not specifically harmful, which if nicotine may really nicely be furnished in a spread which is suitable and successful as remaining a cigarette substitute, 1000's and a huge selection of lifestyle might pretty effectively be saved.
The remaining one.four million e-cigarette summary customers (about 54%) during the Uk go on to smoke tobacco together with vaping (twin use). The net correctly staying implications of dual use are unclear but quite a few twin purchasers report minimized symptom severity, together with with a existing evaluation found that there was lowered toxicant publicity from twin use, when put up coming with continuing only to smoke as an alternative to use e-cigarettes. It's been proposed by some commentators that twin use might perpetuate making use of tobacco inside a few persons who'd if not have hand about. However, some twin shoppers will go on to stop working with tobacco, equally as a complete great deal of people who smoke who use nicotine substitute get rid of (NRT) although cigarette using tobacco development to abstinence.

A cross-sectional populace critique of almost 6000 English people who smoke identified that folks that made use of e-cigarettes in their most up-to-date give up try happen to be 60% a great deal more potentially (right away just after correcting for confounding variables) to typically be abstinent 12 months afterwards on than males and females quitting unaided or employing over-the-counter NRT objects and responses. Self-reported prevent costs wound up 20% for e-cigarettes, fifteen.4% for unaided quitting and 10.1% for NRT.eleven It's been approximated that of 1 080 000 persons who smoke who attempted to supply up using an e-cigarette in 2014 in England, 20 340 more folks who smoke ended up capable to acquire long-term (1-year) abstinence as becoming a consequence on the provision of e-cigarettes.
A different report in the demo accomplished in a London cigarette cigarette using tobacco clinic prompt that incorporating e-cigarettes to easy behavioural information and also other pharmacotherapies, these as NRT or varenicline, could even further more increase superior outcomes, which option is endorsed from the uk Nationwide Centre for Cigarette applying tobacco Cessation and Educating together with the united kingdom neighborhood wellbeing company, Standard community In general health and physical fitness England (PHE).
A the newest neutral evaluate using the evidence commissioned by PHE concluded that e-cigarettes are close to 95% safer than using tobacco, which their use can be encouraged for smokers which have unsuccessful to provide up with other strategies or currently staying a harm-reduction strategy for people who smoke who're not inclined or able to give up. Throughout the check from PHE, chances are you'll find out enough information and facts to endorse using e-cigarettes even though significantly much more study and examining continue.
The PHE report carries on to commonly be criticised by some commentators who truly feel the unfinished evidence won't ever however permit these kinds of organization conclusions on efficacy and simple safety. Troubles have also been expressed regarding the feasible for renormalising group cigarette utilizing tobacco combined while using the gateway consequence for youthful people today. Numerous folks have recognized which the strong sights on similarly of individuals sides concerning the dialogue are driven by ideology and predetermined feelings, particularly about acceptance of the harm-reduction solution.
Although in the British isles, there isn't any proof that e-cigarettes are renormalising smoking cigarettes. As e-cigarettes have designed to acquire effectively identified, conclude could make an try have larger and using tobacco cigarettes prevalence has ongoing to fall.
There may be undoubtedly also no evidence so far using the gateway result; ie, non-smokers taking on e-cigarettes and later on progressing to applying tobacco. Despite the fact that some youthful young children and youthful people experiment with e-cigarettes, their widespread use in just this populace is phenomenal that's also confined virtually totally to current or before tobacco persons who smoke. In developed ups aged sixteen yrs and about who've not smoked earlier, only 0.2% use e-cigarettes above a common basis, and there's no recorded conditions of every and each performing working day vaping.
The united kingdom details variation with each and every on the achievement of the cross-sectional Polish critique that claimed a considerable increase in cigarette smoking cigarettes and e-cigarette use by 15-19-year-old learners among 2010-2011 and 2013-2014. Cigarette smoking cigarettes prices and e-cigarette use greater from 23.9% to 38% and five.5% to 21.9% respectively during the class of these kinds of intervals. The speed of dual use in 2013-2014 was also important, at seventy two.4% of e-cigarette potential customers.
Implications for Australia
According to the united kingdom come on, e-cigarettes could possibly be a more practical device for aiding Australian men and women who smoke who're unwilling or unable to end using the out there therapies.
The real-world usefulness of e-cigarettes for using tobacco cessation during the English investigation is promising, and it can be in line with the outcome of medical trials. Even so, the traditional together with the evidence all spherical from trials is reduced as being a results of the modest assortment of scientific examinations quickly accessible, as well as the results will need acquiring interpreted cautiously.
Much like NRT, essentially the most beneficial quitting benefits are very most certainly when e-cigarettes are used with behavioural steering. E-cigarettes might be utilized alongside aspect other licensed pharmacotherapies, this kind of as varenicline or nicotine patches for improved effects.
The united kingdom information and details also advocate a crucial intent for e-cigarettes in problems reduction for Australian smokers that are not inclined or inside the placement to supply up nicotine or even the cigarette using tobacco ritual. If a big range of people that smoke switched to long-term usage of e-cigarettes, this could have a suited absent and significant favourable impression on widespread community wellbeing and workout.
There is certainly been no enroll to now within the British isles of numerous of your respective prospective, unsafe unintended repercussions of common e-cigarette use. There is certainly totally no evidence of a gateway effect or of renormalisation of smoking cigarettes conduct. In the course of the alternative; e-cigarettes could possibly be performing to become a gateway beyond cigarette using tobacco cigarettes, acquiring claimed that it is really early in the cycle of e-cigarette uptake, and their impact on using tobacco carry out would require really cautious examining in the extensive long lasting.
It really is obtained appear being evident through the British isles know-how that some vapers will go on on to smoke and vape throughout the long-term, normally with lessened smoke ingestion, but even minimized employing tobacco cigarettes poses some doable pitfalls and twin conclusion persons really have to be encouraged and served to prevent using tobacco to the earliest prospect.
Rather cautious, proportionate deregulation of e-cigarettes could give Australian individuals who smoke accessibility into the benefits of vaping however minimising future destruction to neighborhood wellness. Accurate limits could include banning vaping in smoke-free places; bans on gains of e-cigarettes to minors; and confined promoting and promotion, enhanced wonderful manage, child-resistant e-liquid containers and labelling specifications for e-cigarettes.
The uk functional realistic expertise with e-cigarettes has close to now been constructive. E-cigarettes are aiding some smokers to present up or slash down their tobacco usage. Quite a few others can drastically minimize hurt with the many swap inside your safer nicotine transport gadget. The worries that underlie the arduous Australian approach to e-cigarettes – ie, that they could renormalise working with tobacco cigarettes, carry out to get a gateway to employing tobacco for children, and decrease down quitting premiums – have not been supported by proof through the United kingdom.
Regulation of e-cigarettes in Australia ought to essentially be liberalised to allow individuals who smoke the chance to attain from their use. The popularity and well-liked uptake of e-cigarettes creates the achievable for large-scale enhancements in public well being and health and health in Australia and for speedier development towards the endgame, the final phrase demise of flamable tobacco.

India • 360° Aerial Panoramas
Total Views: 232 056
India is one of the most ancient countries in the world: even 500,000 years from now its territory had already been inhabited. Of course, no monuments of that time have remained till nowadays, and the architecture of India that we got used to know and appreciate so much was born only in the 16th-18th centuries. But still, these architectural monuments have no equals in the whole world. And now we invite you to have a tour over these exotic lands with their most precious cultural heritage.
Undoubtedly, the most famous landmark of India is Taj-Mahal — a monumental complex in Agra, built by the order of the Mughal emperor and descendant of Tamerlane, Shah Jahan, as a tomb to his favourite wife. Around 20,000 workers were engaged in building this monument which took place between 1632 and 1653. As a result an exquisite five-domed construction on a platform with four minarets in the corners was created. In the daylight the palaces looks white, at dawn it looks pink, in the moonlight it has the shades of silver. The majestic construction is surrounded by a park, canals and fountains. It is not just architecture, but a wonderful love story inscribed for centuries.
Another crucial feature of the touristic India is Jaipur city, located in the state of Rajasthan. During the construction of the city, which occurred in 1727, pink coloured stones were used. All these houses are still well preserved and thanks to them Jaipur was nicknamed "the Pink City". Its founder, Maharaja Jai Singh II, was known not only as a politician, but as a scientist as well. He was interested in maths, architecture and astronomy — that's why another major landmark of the city is the giant observatory Jantar Mantar. In addition to this, many gardens, temples, fortresses and other monuments — such as Hawa Mahal (the Palace of Winds) or the 18-meters high tower of Sargasuli — have remained in this city till nowadays.
Fatehpur Sikri ("the City of Victory") probably is not so widely known, but it has a longer and more ancient history. The name for this city appeared when Mughal emperor Babur won at the battle of Khanwa. In between 1571 and 1585 Fatehpur-Sikri served as the main city of the Mughal Empire, and now it is interesting for its well-preserved architectural monuments of that time: Panch-Mahal (the Wind Catcher), the Gate of Padishah, the drum house Naubat Khana, the Jama Masjid mosque and many others.
Delhi is the second largest city in the country after Mumbai and it does not need further recommendations. During the long centuries of history it has received the name of "the Capital of Seven Empires". More than 60,000 precious monuments are situated here; Qutb Minar, the Red Fort and Humayun's Tomb are included into the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
But one modern landmark of Delhi definitely deserves our attention: it is Swaminarayan Akshardham complex (translates as "the Abode of the God"), built in 2005. The construction of the temple lasted five years; more than seven thousand masters and three thousand builders from all the regions of India took part in it. Together they created a temple measuring 42 meters high, 94 meters wide and 106 meters long. It is decorated with 234 ornately carved columns, 9 domes shining in the sunlight, 20 four-sided towers and more than 20,000 figures of Hindu mythology. It is also the largest Hindu temple in the world.
The ancient city of Varanasi is a landmark of another nature: it is famous for its history and special meaning in Hinduism. For Hindu people this city is as important as Vatican for Catholics or Mecca for Muslims. According to the legends, Varanasi was founded by the god Shiva over 5,000 years ago. In Hindu cosmology the city is referred as "the centre of the Earth". The main religious activity is strongly connected to ghats — riverfront step constructions leading to the Ganges River. Every day thousands of people from all corners of the country come here to make ritual ablutions in the waters of the sacred river, and this fascinating scene is one more bright illustration for the life of incredible India.
You are invited to have a fabulous trip to the history and culture of this unique country!

HIS Radeon HD 7970 6GB IceQ X2 (Dual GPU) Video Card Review
The Card
Having a look at the card you can tell we're dealing with quite a big one by the amount of length that ends after the PCIe x16 slot at the bottom. You can see we've got two big fans on the card and behind that we're got a huge pair of heatsinks along with a whole bunch of copper that can be seen. The overall shroud design isn't anything too new as we've seen it with other cards that fall under the new IceQ X2 name.
Moving to the top of the card we can see the huge amount of power that is required to get the card up and running. In this case it's three 8-pin PCIe power connectors. You also get a better look at the thickness of the card here.
Moving to the back quickly before continuing across the top we can see what's going on with the heatsink. You can see looking through the back of the card we're dealing with some massive heatsinks and some massive copper pipes are coming out. It will be interesting to see how well the cooler performs with those two GPUs sitting on the PCB.
Moving closer to the front of the card you can see we've got a single CrossFire connector here instead of the normal two that you'd see on a HD 7900 series based card. This is of course due to the fact that the maximum number of cores we can have is only four and being a dual GPU card means that we can only have a maximum of two of these video cards installed.
Looking at the I/O side of things we get an idea as to just how big the card is thanks to that massive triple slot setup. We also see behind the grills on the top half of the card the massive heatsink setup again. When it comes to the connectivity side of things we've got a DVI Port along with a HDMI port and four Mini DisplayPort connectors.
Having a look below we can see the clock speeds which sees both cores come in at 1050MHz. This is the same speed that we see on the new GHz Edition HD 7970's when boost kicks in. This is of course stronger than the original HD 7970 clock which came in at a lower 925MHz and Boost was not an option.
As for the massive 6GB of GDDR5 memory that comes in at 6000MHz QDR which is again the same speed as the GHz Edition HD 7970 and 500MHz QDR quicker than the original HD 7970.

An environmentally minded house located at the top of Ajax Peak, overlooking Coral Bay and the BVI, High House offers a quiet home to come to after a long day of fun in the sun. Located above the quaint town of Coral Bay, and an easy five minutes from beautiful beaches, Ajax Peak is the perfect place to be; the tradewinds provide a pleasant cooling breeze all day and the morning sunrise is an incredible sight. The shade in the late afternoon encourages drinks on the deck for very colorful sunsets and incredible views. The gardens have many native plants, flowers, and fruit trees. Often, Hummingbirds and Bananaquits visit the bird feeders, and hawks can be seen soaring above.
Completely off the grid of water and power, the house uses solar energy to power everything inside, and it has done so since 1978. The water is collected via rainwater on the roof, and is stored below the house. Rest assured, there is no shortage of power and water, with a full size refrigerator and freezer, four burner stove, dishwasher, and many other modern appliances. In case of many shady days, a backup generator away from the house will come on and you won't even hear it. High House allows you to take a Caribbean vacation and relax while making a lighter carbon footprint than at a busy resort.
High House is an amazing house. Check out how comfortable life can be living off the grid. The house operates on 3 kilowatts of solar energy, a wind generator, and 24 deep cell storage batteries.
It is not difficult to use our natural resources like the sun and wind to live a comfortable environmentally friendly life.:)
High House offers a complete kitchen, a complete entertainment center, and a hot tub to enjoy after a long day at the beach or an evening under the stars.
High House has a very open feel with incredible views. The whole front of the house is sliding glass doors opening out to a deck overlooking Coral Bay, East End of St. John, and all the British Virgin Islands. Facing Easterly, the tradewinds blow throughout the year providing a nice cool temperature all year round. High House is also located at the top of Ajax Peak at the end of the road on a 5 acre estate providing the utmost in privacy. Operating totally off the grid, High House never loses power even if the rest of the island is in the dark.
My wife, 12 year old daughter and I stayed the week of Christmas. Hands down one of the best rentals on the island. This was our third time to the island and High House is just the best. If you don't love what this house has to offer, not only are you in the wrong type of house...you"re on the wrong island. Thank you Martha.
On our third trip to St. John we were lucky enough to stay at High House. Perched all the way atop a mountain, the house is perfectly nestled into a dense tropical forest setting. The house itself gives the impression of being sturdy and built with care. It is cantilevered out over a steep bank and has a wrap around porch that provides endless views to the surrounding hillsides, bays and adjacent islands.
High House is outfitted with anything and everything you would need for your stay. Though the house is off the grid in every way, it is by no means primitive. The power was stable, the showers were hot, the toilets capable of whatever you can throw at em and there is even Wi-Fi! There is ample cookware, a dishwasher, washer/dryer, stereo, tv and cable, plenty of towels and even a hot tub with colored disco lights (highly recommended after a day at the beach and especially awesome during rain storms).
In summary, this place is the best. A great value. Do not hesitate. We will be back next year.
My wife & I stayed a week at the end of May '13. Not once did we fail to be awestruck by the view. No picture comes close to capturing the panorama - easily 180 degrees. You can see from the West end of Tortola on the left to straight down Francis Drake Channel to the hills on the far side of Coral Bay on the far right. The deck is the best, but every room has a great view. There had been enough rain to keep all the hills bright green. Coffee on the deck in the morning - Wow! what a way to start the day. Couldn't help but relax and be in a good mood looking out at the islands.
The layout of the house is excellent. One bedroom and bath on either side of the central living area provided decent privacy. The main deck runs along the entire house. The kitchen is slightly awkward. Check out the picture. The prep area is a step down in an enclosed "horseshoe". The pantry, fridge, dishes & microwave are up and out of the enclosure. Just took a day or so to get used to it. Being "off the grid" resulted in our first island vacation where we never lost power once. The deck furniture lacks a table suitable for eating a meal (a minor flaw, as the main table inside has almost the same view). You can see houses down the hill, but you really have no neighbors - very private.
The house is very well maintained, very clean and fully equipped (both for living in the house and for the beach), but a little "tired". The flip side, is that if the furniture was new and the kitchen had granite & stainless the rental would easily be twice the price. Did I mention the view? That alone is worth the price. The owners are down the road if a problem pop up - none did.
You must rent a car. Way up the hill (paved roads right to the house, easily navigated at night) with nothing in walking distance. Coral Bay is a 5+ minute drive. Pretty good location for getting to any of the beaches. You will have to drive to Cruz Bay for any decent grocery shopping (Starfish Market was excellent).
Stunning location on the quiet side of the island. Very highly recommended.
My wife and I along with our children (7+9) have spent the last two winter vacations (10/12 days) here and could not have found a better place to relax and spend quality time with each other. The care takers are exceptional and have been very accommidating. We love spending the day at the many beaches STJ offers and at night time we use the BBQ and just enjoy the huge deck with the priceless view of Coral Bay and the BVI. It is a short ride to Donkey Junction and Coral Bay if you want to get something to eat and have a drink. Being at the top of the hill allows for cooler nighs and a nice breeze. The house is equipped with everything you need so pack light and just enjoy. Can't wait for Feb 13'!
Our 5th year on the island, and we've stayed in a different place every year. The pictures on line do not begin to reflect the fabulous views. Private, but close to our favorite snorkeling places. We experienced an outage of the cable one evening and it was fixed the next am. Equipped with everything. We have just ordered a hot tub like the one at High House.
High House is a wonderful place to be when you are on St. John. The view is spectacular and the breezes are refreshing. Sitting on the wrap around front porch overlooking Coral Bay is a relaxing place to be at any time of the day. The house is clean, comfortable and since the bedrooms are on opposite sides of the main room, it offers plenty of privacy for 2 couples. Martha and Peter are exceptional hosts - meeting us at the dock and offering wonderful suggestions for things to do and see. We loved the eco-friendly environment and it is a very peaceful place to be. I would highly recommend this property to anyone especially if you want privacy, comfort and a view that is the best on the island.
Rates are based on 2 guests. Additional guests are $45/pp/nt. Children 10 and under are $30/child/nt.
Holiday rentals have a 7 day minimum

First runway test for world speed bid car
The world's most advanced supersonic car has been taken out for its first test drive at Cornwall Airport Newquay ahead of its attempt to break the land speed record.
The Bloodhound SSC reached speeds of 50mph along the 1.7 mile long runway, which enabled the team to test its steering, brakes and tyre grip.
Driver Andy Green took the supersonic car out on eight runs so the team could build up their confidence and experience of operating the powerful prototype race-car. It was not all plain sailing as a carbon brake disc did not come up to temperature as the other three did during one of the early runs.
The brake disc was found to have 'glazed,' meaning it refused to bite and come up to temperature. The glaze was eventually burned off and all four brakes were properly bedded in.
The team is undertaking a rigorous set of dynamic trails this week, which will see the car aiming to reach higher speeds using the higher power settings in preparation for the full-power 200 mph public test runs at the end of the month. The series of trail runs follows the Bloodhound car's state-of-the-art EJ200 jet engine being tested. Data from the sensors on the car during the tie-down test confirmed the jet engine produced the expected thrust during maximum reheat, otherwise known as afterburner.
The Bloodhound is due to be transported to the Hakskeen Pan desert in South Africa next year for the world record attempt, which stands at 763mph. The aim is to raise the mark in two stages by first reaching speeds of 800mph and then to 1,000mph.
Andy Green, said "Throttle response was fantastic and once we'd got all four brakes operating together, it handled like a real racing car.
"The team have been putting in the long hours, working through minor issues of running a brand new vehicle, as we learn how to fine tune and develop the car and operating procedures.
"We must say a big thank you to the staff of Cornwall Airport Newquay for their support. The airfield is proving to be the ideal test and develop centre for the world's fastest car and we couldn't have done this without their help.
Thousands of people are expected to visit Cornwall Airport Newquay to watch as the Bloodhound SSC is put through its paces on October 26 and 28, which will include 4,500 Cornish schoolchildren as part of an education programme that aims to inspire the next generation of engineers.

Lockerbie inquiry petition 'remains open'
A petition calling for an inquiry into the conviction of the Lockerbie bomber has been kept open despite an earlier refusal from the Scottish government.
The Justice For Megrahi (JFM) group handed over a petition to the Scottish Parliament in October last year.
It sought an independent probe into the case of Abdelbaset al-Megrahi, the only man to be convicted of the bombing which killed 270 people in 1988.
The petitions committee agreed to write to the government and Lord Advocate.
The JFM group claimed it was "imperative" that the case be examined once more.
However, the Scottish government has already indicated that it has no plans to hold an inquiry and "does not doubt the safety of the conviction".
Megrahi dropped a second appeal against his conviction in the run-up to Scottish Justice Secretary Kenny MacAskill's decision to free him on compassionate grounds in 2009.
Megrahi had previously been diagnosed with terminal prostate cancer.
About 1,500 people signed the JFM petition before it was lodged at Holyrood.
Dr Jim Swire, whose daughter Flora was killed in the bombing, sat through the proceedings during the parliamentary session.
He later said the Scottish Criminal Cases Review Commission (SCCRC) had already decided there may have been a miscarriage of justice and urged the government to open an inquiry.
Dr Swire added: "I think this will be unwelcome in the dying days of the Scottish government to have had this decision by the committee.
"The issue here is so much greater than Scottish party politics. This is not about the SNP. This is about the integrity and, above all, the credibility of Scottish justice."

Decorating our homes with gorgeous decors, fun accessories and colorful lights during Christmas is a tradition for years and years. A particular decor we never miss to incorporate are Christmas wreaths. The wonder and magnificence of Christmas wreaths can embellish any area of the home, which makes it appropriate for that Yuletide season. Also, this accessory doesn't only allow us to prepare the house for Christmas but additionally supplies a lasting freshness through the entire winter.
Start with Natural Christmas wreaths Decorating ideas
Natural Christmas wreaths are frequently made from evergreen plants, for example carol, ivy and pine, which stay eco-friendly all year long. Adding holiday wreaths to your house brings an inviting spirit towards the visitors or passersby. Whether greeting old buddies or newcomers – holiday wreaths are inviting and may transform a home right into a home. Regardless of whether you pick from our periodic, Or fresh wreaths or perhaps a well maintained dried wreath – these substantial, Northwest artisan made door adornments reveal that someone inside cares.
Natural holiday wreaths are really low maintenance. Unlike what we should normally consider how difficult to correctly take proper care of it, we are able to simply spray mist from time to time and mud the wreaths if required. There's also preserved and dried wreaths that are both easy to store for every year use and every one informs an enduring story of hand crafted craftsmanship and care in the Northwest U.S.
While Christmas wreaths are most conspicuously displayed throughout the holidays, a number of door wreaths – fresh and preserved can be found year-round. Aromatic wreaths work as well indoor and out and dried wreaths stand the ages and economy. A mix of various kinds of holiday wreaths can produce a gorgeous group of points of interest throughout the house.
Wreaths are not only seen used in this season. There's also wreaths that are specifically designed for other holidays or seasons including Spring wreaths, Moms Day wreaths, Easter time wreaths, and Fall & Fall wreaths. Indeed, these fancy holiday accessory can modify a home or perhaps an office right into a place that is more interesting, colorful and significant to celebrate a specific season.

FEMA Section 106 Notices for Louisiana
Comment on "
Public Notice Regarding Historic Review of the St. Frances Xavier Cabrini Church, 5500 Paris Avenue, New Orleans, Louisiana with linked PDF attachments
Click here to close this window
Melissa Eugene
New Orleans
5500 Paris Ave. Future Site of Holy Cross
Poor acoustics, ugly prison-like brick and bad seating configuration made this building a problem for church service prior to Katrina. The Cabrini building (it's no longer a church) cannot serve the parishioners of our parish because we no longer accept it as our place of worship. It is not conducive to the community's needs and should be demolished. The preservations should focus their activities on more deserving buildings. There are so many historic properties that they could help restore, yet they have done nothing. We, the community of Gentilly deserve to have Holy Cross, we want Holy Cross, and we approve of the future designs of Holy Cross. We are ready to put an end to this discussion and move forward with demolition of 5500 Paris Avenue.

Anna Benson is a model, former exotic dancer, and VH1 "Baseball Wife" who is in a contentious divorce with MLB pitcher Kris Benson.
Anna Benson was recently arrested after she put on a bulletproof vest, busted into her estranged husband's home and threatened him with a gun and metal baton unless he gave her $30,000. She has been charged with assault and criminal trespassing. Seems Kris told her he was going to get the money, but called police instead. Police also found her with a knife and an ammo belt.
Anna said she did nothing wrong.
Anna Benson earlier said, "Kris was my whole life. And he left me for someone else and he just abandoned us. I'm scared and I just don't know what I'm going to do or how I'm going to take care of these kids."
Related: The MLB's Hottest WAGs
Anna's measurements are 34E-24-34 and she has appeared in "Sports Illustrated" and "FHM," which named her "Baseball's Hottest Wife."
In 1992, at the age of 16, she dropped out of high school and moved out of her parent's home. A year later she married a dentist and she had a daughter. However, a year later, they got divorced. In order to pay the bills, Anna turned to stripping.
She said of people in Georgia, "They're so judgmental. It's real Bible Belt."
In 1998, Anna met then-minor league pitcher Kris Benson while dancing at a club. Turns out they had attended rival high schools, but never got to know each other. A year later, they too, were married, this time in Hawaii. The couple had two children. Anna then underwent breast enhancement and began modeling and appeared in "Penthouse."

In 2004, Kris was traded to the New York Mets. Anna Benson caused controversy a couple times. First, when she wore a low-cut Santa dress to the Mets Christmas Party; and second, when she told Howard Stern that she would sleep with the entire Mets' organization if she ever found out her husband had an affair.
The couple nearly divorced in 2006, but Anna withdrew the petition. She said, "When I came to Kris, I had nothing – two pairs of panties and one bra; suddenly, I found I was married to a millionaire." The marriage would not last. It collapsed in 2012.
She is also into poker and has the moniker "The Gold Digger." In 2005, she began playing at the 2005 World Series of Poker, but was ejected for excessive cursing.
She starred on VH1's "Baseball Wives" in 2011 and 2012.

The men are filing a lawsuit against their former bosses Gold Coast Tickets, claiming the company has used their names to make money for more than a dozen years.
Terry Rand is accusing the well-known ticket broker of using his identity, without his knowledge to fraudulently secure credit cards to purchase tickets to sporting events, concerts and theater productions which were then sold for profit by the broker.
"All these years. That's years of considerable fraud," Rand said.
Rand worked for the company for a few years starting in 1994 but he says it appears the scheme started more than a decade ago.
According to the lawsuit , that's when Gold Coast Tickets and co-owner Daniel Finkel began the practice of hiring residents of mens' hotels in the city to stand in line to purchase tickets.
In order to be paid for their work, they'd have to supply their names, addresses and social security numbers.
Ricky Cisero says he was friends with Finkel for nearly 20 years and knew his information was being used to apply for both season tickets and credit cards but others didn't.
"I kept asking him is this legal to do and do I profit? And his response, well 'It's my money and I'll pay the bills. Don't worry,'" Cisero said.
Cisero called Rand and a lawyer after he had an argument with Finkel and filed the lawsuit.
"The law is very clear. If you want to use someone's ID for commercial purposes you have to secure their permission," the plaintiffs' attorney Dan Biederman said.
Finkel could not be reached for comment.
Gold Coast Tickets co-owner Max Waisvisz denies any wrongdoing and paints Cisero as nothing more than a disgruntled employee.
"It's not involving me personally. It's a friend that if you've ever had a bff and suddenly you get in an argument, that's what basically happened," Waisvisz said.
The attorney for the plaintiffs plans to head back to court in the next couple of days.
A spokesperson at the Illinois Attorney General's Office said that no complaints regarding this matter have been filed with their office, but encourages anyone who believes they may have been the victim of identity theft to contact them.
