I loved the last album that Nick et al put out a couple years ago, and I really had no idea another one was coming out, so this was a very nice surprise. I've already listened to the new one, which doesn't really come out for a couple days, but rest assured it's excellent. Different from the last, yet similar. You can definitely expect it to be on my end of year best of list. This song is quite a bit... lighter than the others? It's cool, but there are several better ones to be found on it.

Beck - Heaven's Ladder
This was never actually released on any album, just in sheet music form in the Song Reader book slash website concept thingy that came out a couple years ago. So, in a way, this is kind of a brand new song I guess?

Down With The Butterfly - Tanks
Great song from an underrated band out of Halifax. That said I'm not even sure if they're still a thing. It's a shame, if not. Not too many bands like this right now.

The Saturday Beat
It's Saturday, and that can mean only one thing. Beats! Awwwww yiss.
Dub? Trap? I'm bad with genres. Pretty funky whatever it is.
Now this is mad funky, almost worthy of a Friday. I wanted to post the actual link to this one but some marketing 'genius' decided I shouldn't be able to embed the track in a blog. Real smart pal, let's make it difficult to hype dope tunes. You deserve a raise.
Funky. Disco. House.
I love this remix. I used it in one of my mixes a year or so back.
We've had a good little dance party, so let's wind down with this killer chiller.

Saw these guys in a reddit post. Ridiculously funky. I am a fan.
EDIT: That's Antwaun Stanley on the vocals. He's also featured on this track.

Antemasque - Drown All Your Witches
It doesn't take long to hear a pretty distinct voice in this track. Of course it's Cedric from the Mars Volta and At The Drive-In. This is a sort of side project slash supergroup of sorts with him and his guitar buddy Omar, with some help from a little guy named Flea. Not surprisingly, it doesn't deviate too much from their other work. Still sounds cool though, we'll see where they take it from here.

Jonquil - Lions
I couldn't find a video for this anywhere so I'm using this fan-made one. I heard this track on the brilliant trailer for "Tomorrow We Disappear". I'd heard of these Oxford chaps before but never really paid them much mind. There's just a sort of haunting quality to this track though, it's really cool. Think I'll have to check out some more of them now.

Arkells - Never Thought This Would Happen
I missed yesterday. That was not intentional. These guys have a new album coming out. They're pretty popular in the indie circles, I suppose for good reason. Always been kind of hit and miss for me. I feel the same about this track. It's ok. I have an issue with it being labeled as an 'acoustic' rendition when there's a drum track playing in the background. Perhaps 'stripped' would be more accurate.

Pretty Lights - Lost And Found
This fella has drifted quite a ways from the trippy soulful grooves that got him big in the first place, lately opting for big-sounding electro dub. I really wasn't a fan of his last album, which is disappointing because I loved his older stuff. I guess we all have to evolve in our own ways and obviously somebody is really digging his new stuff, but I just ain't feelin' it. This is actually a b-side from the new album, and for me it's better than most (if not all) of the a-sides.

FKA Twigs - Two Weeks
...and this is just crazy. Great track, awesome video. I had no idea who she was until I saw it, now I've got the album and I'm ready to give it a listen. Love the production, a kind of dub mix that sounds a bit like a couple tracks I've got on the go. Dig the vocal mix too, though the lyrics are definitely PG-13. Earmuffs!

So my vacation was nice, thanks for asking. Sorry for leaving that part out of my last post. I'm sure you understand. Lately Mondays have been all about metal, but it's cooler since my last post was pretty heavy, let's change it up today. How about ladies night?

Tool - Right In Two
Since we've been talking about Mr. Carey, it seems criminal not to post a song by his real band. Upon closer inspection, it's been four years since I posted a video by them, and eight since they released an album. Coincidence? Completely.
This is not an official video, since they hardly ever put those out, it's a fan-made one using footage from "The Gloaming", a pretty cool animated short worth watching. Man I hope their next album comes out one day. These guys are unquestionably one of the greatest bands on the planet in the history of all time ever. In the universe. Happy now, metalheads?

The Residents - Hello Skinny
Objection, Your Honor, Primus and The Residents aren't metal bands.
True enough, but nobody declared this an official Metal Monday anyway, and it's dark and dreary and twisted and loosely connected, so I'll allow it.
If you're into Primus you may recall an eerie cover of this song on the re-issue of Frizzle Fry, and in fact the vocals on this original, released in 1978, sound even more eerily just like Les Claypool, only it isn't. It's as if the song were always intended to be written for a man yet to perform it, and a band not yet created. Bizarre, creepy, and wonderful.

Primus - Over The Electric Grapevine
What do you do when you're the world's greatest bass player and you need a stand-in for your world class drummer on your upcoming tour? Why, you get the world's greatest drummer, of course. What a silly question. Haha.
Of course these opinions are subjective, but if you were to ask most aficionados, the names Les Claypool and Danny Carey would, at the very least, be in the conversation as the best on their respective weapons of choice. Herb isn't far behind Mr. Carey in my books, but this is like a present to all those drummer geeks who always wondered "what if?" I envy all who get to witness this guaranteed awesomeness.

The Saturday Beat
Time to revive the old bonus beats again, but slightly different. I used to embed the YouTube links and then minimize the player but it doesn't really work now with the new code so I'll just switch to Soundcloud links instead. Probably for the best anyway.
A bangin' track that's a couple years old but still rock solid. Classic Green Velvet techno groove combined with the Harvard BASS. Yessir.
Funky bumpin' house track with that lick of motown. Classy.
Deep, dark, and delicious. Late night tech house for the moonlight.
Bouncy poolside summer groove. Lovin' this one.
Some nice phat mainline groove action. Really smooth remix.

Bryan Raydio - Into The Deep EP
So it's done. Finally. At last. This one has proved a major roadblock, but I'm through it. Now onto more, and much, much sooner. While it's been a good two years since I put out my last EP, it's actually been about four years since the very first incarnations of these tracks took shape. They've gone through countless edits and I was just never satisfied with them. After chipping away I'm finally where I can say I've had enough.
Production, mixing, and mastering was all done by me, mostly in FL Studio using various VSTs both native and external. The songs themselves are kind of a progressive-techno-IDM mix, I'm never really sure how to describe my stuff in terms of genre unless it's clear-cut. Definitely a darker feel to these ones, pretty intense, which isn't necessarily a reflection of my mood these days, it's just how the songs came out. Hopefully they don't scare anyone away!

Definitely a darker feel to these ones, pretty intense, which isn't necessarily a reflection of my mood these days, it's just how the songs came out. Hopefully they don't scare anyone away!
I'd like to think I've made a few advances technically since the last release. Hopefully these tracks have a cleaner sound to them. I was pretty meticulous in the mixing stage and spent a lot of time making sure everything was EQ'd properly and in phase. That's not to say it will be perfect, because for all I know on some speakers they could sound crap, but after testing on my studio monitors, various headphones and ear buds, and the car stereo, they sound ok on my end at least. Do let me know if there are glaring errors.
One thing I did differently in the mastering stage this time was I left some air in the final cut. Those in the production business will have seen and heard countless tracks that are blasted and squashed and maximised to death. Some refer to it as the loudness war. I'm very conscious of it and after making a couple different versions, I much preferred to leave the volume down and leave the original dynamics. So at the final limiting stage I only compressed the peaks by maybe 1-1.5 db at the most, most of the time it wasn't compressing at all. If you have no idea what any of that means, don't worry about it. It just means you might have to turn up the volume a little bit if you want it real loud.
Now that these buggers are out of the way there will be more, and soon. I put out six EP's in 2012, I expect to have at least two or three more out this year. I'm going to leave this here for a couple days. Click on the album cover below to get to the download page. I'll get back to posting on Saturday.

Tom Petty - Forgotten Man
Meanwhile, outlasting them all, is this king among kings. Not to sell his band short at all, it wouldn't be right without The Heartbreakers, but it's just shorter to write this way. Call me lazy. Anyway the man is 63 years old and just put out a new record. It's an impressive effort if you ask me. Maybe not among his best, but when you've been writing and releasing new music for 40 damn years... rest assured Tom, you are not forgotten.

It's been a little heavy around here, so let's slow things down, waaaaay down. I'm not sure of the date of this one, but I'm guessing it's late '50s, maybe around 1960. That's the one and only Memphis Slim with the intro, and in the band the legendary Otis Spann (piano) and Willie Dixon (bass). Matt Murphy of Blues Brothers fame is on the guitar, not sure about the drummer. Anyone have a guess?

Buildings - Because It Doesn't Matter
Now for something new, that's probably a little more stoner punk than metal, but it's heavy enough for me to qualify. The video has clowns which makes it creepy, so that's bonus marks as far as Metal Monday is concerned. Get into it, man.

Prong - Snap Your Fingers, Snap Your Neck
Nothing like a solid metal one hit wonder to keep us going. To be fair, these guys are far more prolific than that, and it's beyond a stretch to label them like that, but this is really the only song I can really remember getting into. I even bought the album when it came out. Listening to it now, it's pretty ordinary stuff, but hey, it's a blast from the past, so why not.

Let's make this a proper Metal Monday, since I seem to be back on track in the posting department. I remember hearing this track back in '95 and thinking "this is awesome" so I couldn't really understand why I hadn't posted it yet, but then I remembered why because it was near impossible to find a decent version of the video with audio that didn't sound like a bad radio recording. This isn't the greatest quality ever, but it'll do. Now to get caught up on all the stuff they've put out in the last 20 years that I missed...

This looks rather useful for weblogers who are still mired in the out of the box templates: Firdamatic: the Design Tool for the Uninspired Webloggers
Not too sure what the "Fird" part means and the URL is kind of funny, but this is by the same person who did the Book of Styles site (now temporarily offline) a worthy design site indeed.
You simply edit information about your blog in a web form, make some selections for colors and fonts, the name of your blog tool (Blogger, MovabltType) and Shazam! the Firdamatic creates a fully XHTML compliant, table-less template for your blog. It can make two column or three column layouts for you in a jiffy.
In about 5 minutes time, chosing an icon and banner graphic, some font, background, link colors, I created a faux layout for a weblog for a friend. View image
Just fiddle with the settings, generate your template, then scan the first entry and you will find a link to a page that provides the fully copy-paste-able code for all of your blog tool templates.
There is really no reason for thousands of MovableType users to be stuck with the look of "Georgia Blue", "Gettysburg", "Rusty", and friends (although they are solid CSS stylesheets, it ends up like sticking with the default PowerPoint template, yechhhh).

On the afternoon of March 16th, Premier Wen Jiabao met in Ziguangge, Zhongnanhai with visiting Secretary General of the Council of the European Union and High Representative for Common Foreign and Security Policy Javier Solana.
Wen Jiabao said there are a number of common grounds between China and the European Union. Both sides are committed to safeguarding world peace, security and stability. Both insist on strengthening the role of the United Nations and multilateralism. Both sides attach great importance to the development of bilateral relations. Both believed that it is in the interest of both sides to further develop cooperation in all sectors. He said China would like to develop strategic partnership in an all-round manner together with the European Union.
Mr. Solana highly praised bilateral cooperation in political, economic and trade spheres. He said the European Union and China should further enhance their friendly cooperation. As to the Taiwan question, Mr. Solana said the European Union would strictly adhere to the "one-China" policy and the policy would never change.
Vice Foreign Minister Zhang Yesui also attended the meeting.

Many people are curious about the benefits of blogging. If you're wondering about what blogging is and the kinds of benefits you can expect from it, then you've come to the right place. This article will help you to figure out what blogging entails.
Use search engine optimization techniques to help improve your blog's readership. Your goal, of course, is to get people to your site. Most will likely have to get there through the search engines, so ranking is very important. Use keywords throughout your blog to increase the site traffic.
Blog often. A common error that bloggers make is that they start a blog but post infrequent updates. If you blog infrequently, you will soon find that readers who were once quite interested in your site no longer take the time to visit it. Strive for weekly updates of your blog site, and always send out an email letting readers know when you have posted new material.
Don't copy anything you see. People take a dim view of plagiarism, and your reputation will be ruined immediately if people find out you are doing this. You do not need any advanced degree to succeed in writing your blog, but you do need to be knowledgeable and passionate about your subject.
Don't copy anything at all. Plagiarism is really serious, and it can make you lose credibility by doing something like this. You don't need to be professional, simply passionate about a subject will garner a quality blog.
Don't let blogging take over your life. Not giving yourself some occasional free time can affect your enthusiasm and, by extension, your writing. Therefore, schedule some time to exercise, see friends, or simply just take a time out for 5 minutes or so. This time will let you come back to your blog ready to produce some great content.
When you set up your blog, it may be wise to buy a domain name instead of utilizing a free site. It does not cost very much to do so, and you will convey a more professional image. Including your business's name or some other memorable phrase in your title will make it easier to remember.
Blog about interesting things and provide relevant content. Nobody is immune from daily tasks such as sweeping and cleaning the dishes. No one will care about any content related to this unless you find a way to present it in an interesting manner. Pick topics that people will be intrigued by. The goal of your blog is to draw readers after all!
Don't forget about pursuits in your life other than your blog. Not giving yourself some occasional free time can affect your enthusiasm and, by extension, your writing. Fit normal things like taking walks or visiting friends into your day. This will recharge your batteries and make you a better blogger.
Put emotions aside when reading and responding to comments and other reader feedback. Regardless of the subject matter, someone is sure to offer criticism. Use any constructive criticisms to help improve your blog. Negative criticism should just be answered then ignored. Staying mature and professional will tell your readership that you're trustworthy.
Be sincere and authentic in your blog. Don't pretend to know everything. Be honest, transparent and open to new ideas. Do this at all times. A blog can be a singular expression of a person's individuality. Reaching for perfection is great, but don't dwell on it. If you make a mistake, acknowledge it, and move on. You have a specific point of view that is all your own.
Don't forget about the logistics. Make sure that you keep your site up and running and in good working condition. Perform regular maintenance and always be on the lookout for ways to give the reader the best experience. Keeping your blogs up-to-date will keep your readers interested and decrease the chance of boredom, so that your readers will continue to return again and again.
After reading this article, you should be prepared to get started with writing a blog. Reread this article as necessary and ensure you use all the tips here to take your blog to the next level of success!
Let your readers post comments on your blog posts, and reply to those comments. You can develop a good relationship with readers this way and become more active in your blogging community. Additionally, if you respond to their comments, they will come back because they want to read what you have to say.

Canada Goose Chateau VS Nobis Yatesy
outlet stone island leipzig
This is an article from a year ago that really helped folks make that crucial decision concerning a new winter parka. When you need high quality and accomplishment this can often be a challenging choice.
Both the Nobis as well as Canada Goose deliver upon these fronts. Even so, you might be left asking yourself which one of these wintertime jackets to get. To aid with that decision, we've written this article for you personally.
Nobis Yatesy
Windproof: will keep you more comfortable when there's a solid wind.
Waterproof-breathable: protects you together with the down from unexpected rain.
Blowing wind flap with magnetic closures: really convenient and adds an element of sleakness.
Pit-zips: great for avoiding overheating.
Tonal elbow sections and wrist buckles: generally for looks. Does one like
Wind skirt: close it to close out the sneakiest winds.

Canada Goose Chateau
Wind flap with switches: gives it a classic look.
Zippered hand pockets: the easy way keep things secure.
Bright logo area on left neck: sign of quality
Significantly less is more look: you don't want fussy, you want regular.

Let's take a look at what they have in common currently. First off the baseball bat, both these down coats will have you looking and feeling good (warm). His or her fit is rather slender. So if there's virtually any debate about which usually size to get, proceed one up. They also have tunnel hoods. Zipped-up, these are fantastic when weather is raw, but not so good if it's merely harsh and you'd rather something a lttle bit reasonnable-looking. Another appreciated characteristic are the wrist cuffs which usually block out the breeze and keep you warm. Nobis telephone calls them functional telescopic sleeves, which is nice engineering-speak, but additionally describes them nicely. The Canada Goose also offers functional telescopic sleeves, but under another brand.
Inside, the Yatesy and the Chateau have a practical inside pocket at the chest and stash storage compartments at the waist. They also have a removable coyote hair ruff. Speaking of hoods, they've got a mouldable wire at the advantage which makes it really easy to adjust the hood.
Externally, right away you can see those are the same category of coat, mid-thigh length, but with somewhat different looks. The Nobis Yatesy has a more lustrous structure and has a host of pouches: accordion style at the midsection and slanted on the chest. On the other hand, the actual Canada Goose Chateau's texture is much more matte and the pouches, one napoleon and two hands, are much more delicate. Speaking of the storage compartments, both hand wallets are fleeced-lined, making them smooth, just like your hands enjoy it. Over all the Yatesy has a busier, more aggressive confident look whilst the Canada Goose integrates in with its comparable minimalism and seems more youthful.
If you're still uncertain on which coat is good for you, read our own choosing the right winter jacket guide for some helpful pointers.

Premium finance tax tips
Joe Micallef, CEO of FIRST Insurance Funding of Canada, discusses the tax benefits of premium financing
This is an excellent time to remind your clients that premium financing is a tax effective payment option for their insurance premiums. As business owners, your clients will be interested in knowing the following with respect to their premium financing loans:
Read: Essential tax tips for your clients
•The interest on premium financing loans is fully tax deductible;
•Since the insurance premium and interest are both deductible, they can be classified together or separately as an expense, based on the company's accounting policies;
•Premium financing is considered off-balance sheet because the loans are funded directly through the broker to the insurance carrier. Since a premium finance loan is not a balance sheet liability, it does not impact a client's external borrowing covenants or capacity to obtain external financing.

Genome By Accident Or By Design?
Joel Kontinen
Darwinian storytelling has not become extinct. An article in New Scientist says:
"Our genome is far from a perfectly honed, finished product. Rather, it has been crudely patched together from the detritus of genetic accidents and the remains of ancient parasites. It is the product of the kind of crazy, uncontrolled experimentation that would be rejected out of hand by any ethics board."
The biggest problem with this claim is that it is entirely bogus. In contrast to this storytelling, our genome looks designed. Full of tiny interacting molecular machines, we are indeed "fearfully and wonderfully made," as the psalmist puts it. The New International Version (NIV) renders Psalm 139:14 as: "I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well."
The New Living Translation likewise says it aptly: "Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous--how well I know it."
This is obvious to all who are willing to see it.

Rules of Professional Conduct amended re: conflicts of interestRule 2.04 of the Rules of Professional Conduct was amended to implement the policy approved January 2010 on the conflicts of interest standard for Pro Bono Law Ontario short term limited legal services. Full report .
Audit Committee reportConvocation approved the audited Annual Financial Statements for the Law Society for the year ending December 31, 2009. The Law Society remains financially sound. The General Fund balance has increased by $750,000 to $9.8 million over the course of 2009. The Compensation Fund balance in total has increased by almost $1.4 to $20.8 million over the course of 2009. The E&O Fund saw a large reduction in 2009 from $76 million to $57 million primarily as a result of the retroactive impact on the cost of claims of $10.5 million as a consequence of HST legislation in Ontario. Convocation appointed Deloitte & Touche LLP as the auditor of the Law Society and LibraryCo Inc. for the 2010 financial year. Full report .
Law Society settles law suit with former auditors and actuariesLaw Society CEO Malcolm Heins reported to Convocation on the resolution of the law suit by the Law Society and LAWPRO against their former auditors, Ernst &Young and former actuaries Tillinghast. The action was settled in February 2010 following a mediation conducted by the Honourable Warren K. Winkler, Chief Justice of Ontario. As a result of the settlement the Law Societyreceived payment of $8 million from the defendants. The law suit related to the calculation and reporting of claims liabilities incurred in the period 1991 to 1994 in the Law Society's Insurance Plan. No party made any admission of liability as part of the settlement. Full report .
Racialized women drive increase in women lawyersNearly 60 per cent of the youngest lawyers in Ontario are women, a significant demographic shift driven in large part by the increasing number of racialized women entering the profession, says a report released by the Law Society. According to the report, racialized women account for 16 per cent of all lawyers under 30, compared to just 5 per cent of lawyers 30 and older. "Racialization and Gender of Lawyers in Ontario", written by Michael Ornstein of York University, is a comprehensive analysis of 2006 and prior census data commissioned by the Law Society.
"While we are pleased to see the continued increase in the number of women lawyers, we are particularly happy to see the broadening diversity of those entering the profession," says Jose Bouchard, Equity Advisor at the Law Society. "We are witnessing a surge in the number of racialized lawyers mirroring the surge of women lawyers that took place 20 years ago."
The number of visible minority lawyers aged 25 to 34 grew from 6 per cent in 1991 to 20 per cent in 2006. The number of Aboriginal lawyers in that age group grew from .9 per cent in 1991 to 1.9 per cent in 2006. Full report .

While attending a U.S. Navy Oceanography class many years ago, a salty old master chief told us about a scale we could use while flying above the ocean to gauge wind speeds from the appearance of waves and swells.
Later in my naval career, I also discovered that this clear and concise scale could also be used by landlubbers.
In the early 1800s, British Rear Admiral Sir Francis Beaufort devised this wind scale. Beaufort was a clever young hydrographer in the Admiralty.
He was born in 1774 in Ireland to a large family whose well-educated father, Daniel Augustus Beaufort, dabbled in many different careers as he kept one step ahead of the debt collectors.
Daniel was interested in just about everything, including map making. His sense of curiosity was certainly passed on from father to son.
Francis Beaufort, for whom the sea between Russia and Alaska was named, loved to take bearings and produce detailed charts and maps.
From his earliest years, he longed to make observations from the deck of a ship. At the ripe old age of 14, he set sail on the Vansittart, an East India Company trade ship to the Pacific. The ship sank in 1789 in the Java Sea by running aground. He made his way back to England on another ship and eventually joined the Royal Navy. He quickly rose through the ranks.
During Beaufort's time, the world's ships ran on wind and not oil. He recognized the need to produce a wind scale so other sailors could communicate their wind observations.
In January 1806, he devised a scale of 13 wind classes, based on how the canvas on a tall ship would behave. For example, the highest wind on Beaufort's scale was defined as "That which no canvas could withstand."
This standard proved to be immensely useful for mariners. Ship crews knew what to expect when they ventured into waters with a certain wind force.
In 1838, the Beaufort scale became mandatory information for log entries in all British vessels.
The meteorological community took longer and it wasn't until 1874 that the International Meteorological Committee agreed on the appropriate phenomena on sea and land to determine wind speeds.
Today we define the Beaufort scale in terms of actual wind speeds, measured 10 meters above the ground. Over my many years of writing a daily weather forecast, I've always used this scale to describe the winds.
This week's forecast
The emerald green hills of April are transitioning to a golden-brown hue of May. The coastal stratus is making itself more well known on this Mother's Day as we roll toward June.
Dramatic cooling, which occurred along the coast yesterday, will progress to the North County today, resulting in much cooler temperatures. In fact, temperatures will only reach the 60s throughout San Luis Obispo County.
Strong to gale force (25- to 38-mph) northwesterly (onshore) winds will develop along the coast this afternoon.
The upper-level charts indicate the jet stream will flow from Washington state south through the Central Coast later today through Monday.
This jet will drive a late season Pacific cold front southward through California. Clouds are forecast to increase today into Monday leading to areas of night and morning drizzle along the coastline and precipitation as far south as Monterey Bay and across the Sierra.
Snow levels are forecast to drop to around 5,000 and 6,000 feet tonight into early Monday.
A high-pressure ridge will build over California Tuesday and Wednesday and temperatures will rebound with gradual warming both days. Current indications are that more cool and unsettled weather are possible late this week.
Surf and sea report
Strong- to gale-force (25- to 38-mph) northwesterly winds along the California coastline will produce a 4- to 6-foot northwesterly (310-degree deep-water) sea and swell (with a 5- to 12-second period) this afternoon and will continue at this height and period through tonight, increasing to 6 to 8 feet (with a 7- to 11-second period) Monday.
A 5- to 7-foot northwesterly (310-degree deep-water) swell (with an 8- to 14-second period) is forecast along our coastline on Tuesday, decreasing to 3 to 5 feet (with an 8- to 11-second period) Wednesday through Thursday morning.
Another round of northwesterly winds will generate a 4- to 6-foot northwesterly (310-degree deep-water) sea and swell (with a 5- to 9-second period) Thursday afternoon through Saturday.
Seawater temperatures will range between 50 and 52-degrees through this morning, decreasing to 49 and 51 degrees this afternoon and remaining at this level through Tuesday.
Conservation tip
Californians are often the first to try out innovative ways to protect the environment.
So it's no surprise we're gearing up for a greener driving alternative: plug-in electric vehicles, or PEVs.
PEVs are quiet, environmentally friendly and energy efficient. Let us help you move into a gasoline-free future.

With pleasure I submit my references.
What to say…simply the best!!
It's now 4 years we are cooperating with e3 and no money has been spent in a better way.
Happy about the services, happy about flexibility, happy about kindness from people, happy about possibility to choose, upgrade, downgrade and response they give.
In every place for every problem on international phones, VSAT, TV issues…..we just call and promptly they try to help.
Our cooperation will for sure last long.
Well, what can I say, the choice of moving our system to MARLINK was one of the best choices this yacht has made making the owners season problem free from VSAT. The auto tracking works perfectly since one of our biggest problems was mast blockage. All in all a great system and great support team at any hour if you need them.
We don't need the levels of bandwidth required for a good media streaming experience all the time so it's important that we have the flexibility to increase and decrease bandwidth with ease.
Likewise, only paying for services for the duration we spend in a region helps to keep costs reasonable, whilst still having sufficient bandwidth available for guest and crew connectivity at all times. In order to operate efficiently in terms of budget and capabilities, the flexibility we have with MARLINK for our connectivity is vital.
In response to your email and persons associated in cc to this mail, I can confirm that the decision to change to Marlink has been a great success so far in all aspects and so far a vast improvement to service onboard regarding internet.
The increase was noticeable and benefits the busy schedule of 2 Ladies a lot, importantly for one of our owners, especially and as long as we achieve the same as we have in the last month, this is a great success story.
In fact we haven't even touched the 4G yet. But comfortable to know it is there when we (have coverage) and or need it.
AXANTHA II is a busy charter vessel and as such the need for varied levels of service exist, MARLINK was able to switch us up or down in speed and service level at relatively short notice and only billing for the periods used. This saved money and headaches, clients were able to enjoy exactly what service they desired and with no unnecessary costs being incurred.
Depending on location the vessel can have around 15 degrees of mast blockage so it was important to find a reputable service provider that could ensure interruption free data service. MARLINK was chosen for several reasons including the high number of satellites it maintains and the proven platform it uses for the auto switching feature. This gave the vessel an automated wide array of satellite choices no matter where she was located or where her mast blockage was due to anchor or berthing orientation. Throughout the seasons the vessel never suffered a single period without service for any reason and there was no need for any time consuming NOC contact to resolve issues – job well done!
When completing the build of this new vessel I met again with e3 after a successful introduction at the Monaco Yacht Show. They were excellent in listening to the requirements of the yacht's functions and they recommended the most appropriate service for our vessel which in our case is from Airbus.
In fact they advised us to start on a lower package rather than start high. The package they suggested was superb.
I cannot speak highly enough of their service from sales, admin and through to installation. After a full and busy season cruising all over the Med I have not had to call e3 for any maintenance as the system worked flawlessly, which is a godsend for both Captains and Engineers.
The owner of the vessel, after many years of having experiencing substandard internet access and VOIP on other vessels, is finally working with a company that can meet our demanding requirements.
I find working with them means I can relax and have confidence that all my communication needs are met, and I look forward to many years working with them and enjoying all the latest developments in this fast moving area of yachting.
e3 has been our provider for our Speedcast VSAT service, both in the Med and also the USA, Caribbean, central America and west coast of Mexico.
We have found the service very reliable, and I don't remember a time that we have not had coverage. I also found it very flexible, being able to increase the speed when we have owners onboard and then back down when they leave, all done by email. Also any technical questions were easily dealt with by a quick phone call to e3 Support. They also monitor our service with remote access.
I have no hesitation with recommending them.
On board our 70m yacht we used the Kerio Control Software for about a year, running on VMWare; Windows 2008 Server. Starting to use the software was very easy, all settings and configuration on are on the html surface. The control over the users (individuals and/or groups) made bandwidth allocation very easy and effective. After a year we replaced the software with the e3.ARMMS 3120 Kerio Control Box. The hardware gave more options to us for alternate routing, VSAT, shore and 3/4G load balancing, built in anti-virus and restricted content filtering. The list is long. I would recommend this solution to any system administrator network operator.
Having used e3 Systems for a number of years on-board M/Y SAMAX we have found them extremely efficient and most knowledgeable especially on the IT side of the company. We upgraded our Server and on-board IT Network back in 2012 and e3 Systems was our first choice supplier to carry out such a complex upgrade.
We are extremely happy with the service e3 supply and especially with the e3.ARMMS (Kerio) supplied by e3 Systems which is great for monitoring our data usage on-board, we are now able to control all our data usage and allocate bandwidth accordingly, making data allocation easier to control especially in heavier traffic periods, plus of course the added advantage that e3 Systems are only a call away should assistance be needed.
This is the first time I have used the e3.ARMMS Kerio Controller for the Data Service management and I find it very useful and easy to use. I was shown how to use it once by the old captain and have been able to change the settings that I have needed very easily. I especially like the idea of being able to turn off pages like Facebook, Skype and You Tube which eat up a lot of the bandwidth.
I am pleased with the e3.ARMMS Kerio controller installed aboard Velsheda. I can now easily manage all internet sources. I can split a weak wi-fi signal for crew and stronger, but limited, 4G data for administration and guests. This really helps with data hungry race crew when waiting around on a postponed race day – just when I need to submit regatta documentation in a hurry!
When restricted to monthly data allowance, the e3.ARMMS Kerio helps me to manage this usage with relative ease. I recommend it, just don't fiddle with the settings once installed!
The e3.ARMMS Kerio is generally speaking user friendly, easy to navigate and informative. I really like using it!
The system is intuitive and can make its own decisions if not inhibited. For example if reception is lost the system has the ability to automatically select 4G, which if not detected, could prove quite costly. A simple manual would be a useful addition as a starting point during fault finding. It might save needless phone calls to the technicians when they are busy on other jobs.
The system though is brilliant!
I am not sure if you are aware, but I have been dealing extensively with your team regarding M.Y. Samar's IT, VSAT and TVRO issues/maintenance and general system health checks.
I wanted to let you know that your team has been a tremendous help (to say the very least). In each department I have found each individual to be extremely competent and professional with support that extends way beyond the call of duty.
I cannot thank your guys enough for all their hard work and it's the customer service provided by them (and the rest of the team) that makes all the difference and I can assure you that we will continue to remain a proud client of yours.
It was nice to meet some of your team at the MYS. As I explained to Alan Walker, e3s has the best after sales and support teams in the world; of course also everyone from accounting, for their long patience with unpaid invoices and all the extremely nice and professional people I have been dealing with these last 26 months

San Diego, CA (PRWEB) June 04, 2015
Creating an extraordinary music video requires the synchronization of many key elements. To pull off an unforgettable event, the performers, video production crew, sound engineers and the special effects team must be ready to exceed a typical routine. During the third week of April, Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike teamed up with Ummet Ozcan in spectacular fashion to record the official music video for "The HUM."
Martial arts film star Jean Claude Van Damme and Hollywood entertainment icon Charlie Sheen are featured in the music video. The setting is based on a lavish pool party that is held at a mansion in Upland, California.
CryoFX®, a leader in special effects equipment, was on the set to provide cold blasts of liquid Co2. Throughout the music video, team members from CryoFX® used Co2 Cannons, Co2 Jets and Night Club Cannons to enhance the aesthetics and shock value for dancers, as wells the guests who were enjoying the atmosphere in the area of the pool.
A charismatic monkey, a crocodile and an elephant joined in on the fun at the standing room only pool party that lasted until the early morning hours.

|"An adventurous holiday!"
My boyfriend and I were in contact with Omano quite a bit before our trip because we had a tight time schedule due to work. Omano was knowledgeable and very helpful, and was able to fit our trip into three days AND find us affordable travel to Lake Toba afterwards. We did the three day tour, but all of the tours are reasonable prices with clean, great rooms (we did Option B) and amazing food at the restaurant. We got to see the feeding platform and do a three hour trek in the jungle, and the tour guides were very helpful and taught us a lot about the jungle and animals. If you have the time (and you're in good physical shape!) try to do longer than the three hour trek. We saw some cool things in just three hours, and we wished we had the time to go deeper into the jungle to see even more.
They care about the environment and take care of the place and community where they live, and it shows. When we went to Tangkahan, it was the same experience. Friendly guides, adventure, relaxation, and great food are all things you will get if you do a Sumatra Jungle Tour with Omano and his team! I have a blog update coming soon with photos of our trip here:http://chelseamarie1213.tumblr.com.

Breakthrough Enterprise
OUR DYNAMIC GROUP Coaching PROGRAM FOR Entrepreneurs provides LIVE ONLINE coaching that is TRULY TRANSFORMATIVE.
We believe the energy, creativity and culture of startups is the best way to power success in any organization. That's why we created Breakthrough Enterprise. It's our way of reawakening more mature organizations to the startup within, whether that means reinvigorating sleepy bureaucracy, or getting a scaled startup back in touch with its roots.
Like the rest of our programs, Breakthrough Enterprise is built on scientific assessment of your organization, teams and leaders. Using cutting-edge assessment tools, we give every level of the organization a way to see its bright spots and blind spots, while providing specific feedback to leaders and peers through our online 360-degree evaluations.
That's where we start, and then we keep going...
For leaders
We offer comprehensive 360-degree evaluations built on in-depth interviews with peers, subordinates and superiors. These are built on live interviews conducted by our team of experienced coaches (many with deep experience in large organizations themselves) that capture the nuances and desires leaders often can't see for themselves. After detailed analysis, we present these findings along with a remediation and support program. Then we measure progress with ongoing online assessment.
We take that same scientific approach to assessing team effectiveness, whether it's a small operating unit or an entire company. Our proprietary tools surface trends and potentials along with deficits that are holding back performance. Often just seeing the reality of where a team is falling short is enough to stimulate positive change. As legendary CEO Jack Welch said: "The team that sees reality best wins."
We follow up that powerful assessment with a customized action plan, built around coaching for high-leverage players and massively scalable live Breakthrough education programs for teams. These breakthroughs allow diverse and scattered teams to get on the same page, learn new skills and grow together. Current Breakthrough programs target Expanding Time and Productivity, Transforming Fear and Stress, Breaking Free from Burnout, Culture and Courageous Communication.
Our programs for teams continue with deep team building in our Team Forums. These expertly facilitated peer groups overcome dysfunction and build connection by building trust and empathy as colleagues address the non-tactical issues holding them back. This is a way to build on learnings from our assessments and Breakthrough programs.
For high-value and high-leverage players in organizations we offer one-on-one coaching with our diverse team of executive coaches. From C-suite award winners, to thought leaders, and subject matter experts, Good Startups coaches bring real-world experience, seasoned coaching skills and empathetic confidentiality to leaders. And, as always, progress is measured with our scientific pulse assessments.

Last Sunday I went to the markets and can came back with a whole tray of lemons simply because they were cheap. I got home and I just thought to myself what the hell am I going to do with all these lemons *face palms*? They say when life gives you lemons, make lemonade but I think I had my mind set on popping open the Gin! One thing I do love is to use lemons on my skin and that's exactly what I did... I also put some on my fish and chips too! Okay you are now thinking "what is this crazy women on about?", well believe it or not lemons are great for making hyper pigmentation left from nasty spots disappear and to even out your skin tone.
The reason why it works is the citric acid in lemons that basically eats away that old, dull skin and exfoliates to reveal new brighter skin. Not only do lemons help get rid of pigmentation but they are anti-bacterial which helps to heal acne. So there was no need for me to throw away those lemons after all!
I firstly made an awesome exfoliating mask! I just squeezed a little bit of lemon into a small bowl, added a tablespoon of honey and threw in a dollop of greek yoghurt. I still had quite a few lemons left so I made a dark spot treatment and for that just I squeezed a bit of lemon into a bowl, added equal parts water, grabbed a cotton round and swiped over my troublesome areas. If you decide to do this yourself make sure you don't use it on an every day basis as it will over dry your skin and also don't use it straight because the humble lemon does pack a punch *see what I did there!*.
There was a deeper reason why I decided to write this post, I didn't just want to talk about me trying to use up a whole tray of lemons. The lemons strung a chord with my life and what I've been through and I wanted to give a bit of encouragement to everyone that may be going through a difficult time. I have been quite sick for a long time and recently have been in and out of hospital. You could definitely say that life has been handing me it's fair share of lemons. But I believe the same principal goes, when life gives you lemons... you make lemonade! Be thankful for what you do have, make the best of what you got and enjoy the people around you. Sometimes you have to make your own light at the end of the tunnel. So whether you are going through a bit of a rough patch in life, with your skin or you just have too many lemons, I hope I helped!

bergoglio not doing enough to support Islam according to muslim leader in Turkey
Connect the dots... (See below.)
Now that "the Islamic State" is threatening Turkey, the head of the Turkish muslims tries to blame the problem on Christians.
As long as "the Islamic State" was JUST brutally killing Christians the muslim leaders in Turkey were silent while the turkish government (and other Islamic groups) funded the Islamic terrorists and provided military arms and other support.
And now Turkey is caught in the backlash of their stupidity....
And now bergoglio is also caught in the backlash of his stupidity....
The only true peace is through Christ the King.
[H/T Eponymous Flower -- LINK]
Mehmet Görmez
Mehmet Görmez (born 1959) is the President of the Presidency of Religious Affairs (Turkish: Diyanet İşleri Başkanlığı, commonly known as Diyanet) and as such legally the highest level Islamic cleric in Turkey and the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus.
HEAD OF [Turkish] RELIGIOUS AUTHORITY RESPONDS TO POPE FRANCIS
"This problem ["Islamophobia"] cannot be resolved through the organization of interfaith football games or washing people's feet" said Görmez, who expressed that such actions are very ineffective even though they may have good intentions behind.
In Turkey, a late crackdown on Islamist fighters
... but for many months, the militants were able to grow in power partly by using the border region of a NATO member — Turkey — as a strategically vital supply route and entry point to wage their war.
Alarmed by the growing might of the Islamic State, Turkey has started cracking down.
But in a region engulfed by a broadening conflict, Turkey is also reaping what it sowed. It is engaging in border shootouts with rebels it once tactically aided. It is confronting spillover violence, a cutoff in its trade routes and a spreading wave of fear in Turkish towns...
During its push into the northern Iraqi city of Mosul in June, the Islamic State seized 80 Turkish hostages — including a gaggle of diplomats — 41 of whom are still being held. More than 1 million refugees have poured into Turkey since the start of the Syrian conflict, costing the government more than $3 billion. Billions more have been lost in business and trade across its borders with Syria and Iraq.
Yusaf, the Islamic State commander who traveled to Reyhanli [turkish town on the border with Syria] from Syria for an interview with The Washington Post, suggested that the group had the Turks to thank in part for its current success.
"We used to have some fighters — even high-level members of the Islamic State — getting treated in Turkish hospitals," he said. "And also, most of the fighters who joined us in the beginning of the war came via Turkey, and so did our equipment and supplies."
He conceded that the recent crackdown had made it more difficult to continue using Turkey as a supply route. But he added that the group had grown so strong in Iraq — where it won fast allies among the Sunni tribes — that it no longer needed to rely on the Turkish border.
"Now we are getting enough weapons from Iraq, and there is enough to buy even within Syria," he said. "There is no real need to get things from outside anymore."

We commend you on working with our lawyer and sorting though the legal challenges and when ever documents had to be signed you did not hesitate in arranging times and appointments with Pete's Nursing Home and the driving up to execute the task. We appreciated that you kept us informed at all times re the progress of the sale and how smoothly this all went once there was a cash offer particularly in the current poor realestate market. Many many thanks for all you assistance, support and help, it was most appreciated as I did not know where to start with the mammoth clean up and you so kindly arranged, rubbish collection, cleaners, repair men, electricians and the list goes on and on. I really could not have done it with out you. Kind regards, Stephanie B

Craig's very pleasant personality and his compassion at times throughout the sale gave me much needed strength to continue on. His hard working diligence really has been a huge factor in the selling of the property. I have brought and sold a few properties throughout my lifetime and can honestly say that I have never experienced such commitment to the sale of a property like that displayed by Craig. I am one very satisfied customer and as previously said I truly cannot speak too highly of Craig's mannerism and effort made whilst conducting the sale of our property.

Women's Health Takes Fitness, Philanthropy to the Streets to Feed the Hungry
Five years and 4.5 million meals later, Run 10 Feed 10 continues to deepen the Rodale brand's relationship with its readers.
As magazine brands continue to grow from the print books that birthed them into multimedia content hubs stretching across a diverse set of platforms (both online and off), publishers increasingly seek to transform their "readership" into communities — groups of relatively like-minded people connected by common interests, ideals, and behaviors.
Whatever the title, the goal is generally the same: to develop a direct relationship with the consumer, one that motivates them to connect with a brand in whichever way they prefer to consume content. Key to fostering that direct relationship, many brands have found, are live, face-to-face events.
In 2012, seeking to create another audience touchpoint in the real world, Rodale's Women's Health launched — in partnership with Lauren Bush's FEED Foundation — the Run 10 Feed 10 race, an annual event with a relatively straightforward goal: run 10 kilometers and provide 10 meals to your local food bank.
"It's more than just a race," Laura Frerer-Schmidt, Women's Health VP and publisher, tells Folio:. "It's a physical fitness goal for people, across the nation, that is tied to a very quantifiable charitable donation, so they know that when they work towards this, cross the finish line, commit to this, that they are feeding 10 people in their home town."
The decision to launch an event with a distinct and specific philanthropic outcome was a deliberate one. Not only does Women's Health's audience respond very well to brands that give back, says Frerer-Schmidt, but young consumers in particular demand transparency and a clear view of the impact their charity has on a community.
"In New York, the person who's hungry is literally standing right there on the corner," Frerer-Schmidt adds. "We're all part of this community that has a few holes in it. If we can help to make our community healthier, we should."
Now in its fifth year, Run 10 Feed 10 has provided over 4.5 million meals to food banks throughout the U.S. Far more than a single event, Run 10 Feed 10 includes three flagship races: today in Chicago, September 18 in New York, and October 29 in San Francisco.
In New York, thousands of participants will gather on the shut-down West Side Highway, where runners can qualify for the New York Marathon and afterward enjoy a festival in Hudson River Park. In San Francisco, thousands more will race across the Golden Gate Bridge.
And for those who can't make it to any of the flagship events, runners in over 1,000 additional towns and cities across the country will participate all month long by mapping their run on the Runtastic smartphone app.
It's all about making both fitness and philanthropy as accessible and inclusive as possible, says Frerer-Schmidt.
"We added a 5K this year to the 10K run because we want even more people to be able to participate," Frerer-Schmidt adds. "Fitness, for us, is not just for everyone who is going to get involved with something like a marathon or a triathlon. We want to give everyone something to aspire to that they can really do. It doesn't have to be easy, but we want it to be accessible. It's about fitness, for sure, but it's also about socializing."
The presenting sponsor for this year's Run 10 Feed 10 is Macy's, who was attracted to the opportunity to connect with fitness-minded consumers outside of a retail environment. This evening's 10K in Chicago begins and ends at Macy's flagship State Street store, the location of a post-race party sponsored by brands like Aveeno, Hydroxycut, and Vitafusion, among others.
"Activewear and athleisure are taking over. This healthy lifestyle is really affecting retail sales in a very good way. [Macy's] wants to be a part of people's lives beyond just selling them products," says Frerer-Schmidt.
Women's Health expects the number of participants this year to run in the tens of thousands, and while there is certainly a lot of sponsorship and registration revenue to be earned, Frerer-Schmidt insists that very few expenses were spared. The goal is less about quantifiable revenue or brand lift and more about creating a direct and shared experience with consumers.
It's those shared experiences, says Frerer-Schmidt, that has allowed Women's Health to grow its audience across every platform (including print) for the last five consecutive years.
In 2016 alone, Women's Health has increased its print ad pages by two percent and print revenues by six percent, according to the Publishers Information Bureau. Those numbers may not seem gaudy, but in today's media world, any growth in print is worthy of recognition.
On the digital side, visitors to WomensHealth.com are up four percent since January and page views are up 20 percent, according to comScore. In total, Women's Health now reaches over 18 million consumers in the U.S. each month, according to the MPA's Magazine Media 360° report, which would place it well ahead of its competitors in the women's health and fitness space.
"We're seeing continued growth in a year that's been very difficult for most brands in pretty much every category," Frerer-Schmidt concludes. "I think it's because we are in partnership with our consumers about taking some sort of action in the world. This event is the perfect example of that, and we're doing it with brands who really see this as the way forward."

Users seem to see setting up their accounts as one of the more intimidating tasks when setting up a mail program. You have to consider servers, what they do, usernames, mailbox names, passwords, domains, and so on—you get the idea. It's somewhat complicated, to say the least.
To get started, let's figure out as much as we can. First, let's look at how email is done. You start with what is called a Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) server. This server is what moves the mail between users, computers, and domains. You send all mail using SMTP because every Internet email system is SMTP based.

The deal with typeid( … ).name( )
Chalk up one more day of productivity to the loose ends of language standardization. Today's source of pain is the type_info::name...
What's wrong with it? -- it's completely compiler-specific. I've always known this, but the limitations never bogged me until today.
By and large, I would say Visual C++ does the right thing here. It gives you a human-readable name that's actually a valid C++ type declaration. That's what I'd naturally expect, though I'd like it better if it were a bit less verbose.
What about GCC? First they give you their decorated version and you need to use their helper library to undecorate it. But the insulting part is that the __cxa_demangle API can't undecorate all names that type_info::name will give you, particularly if you mix modules compiled with (even subtly) different revisions of the compiler. This is the part that caused new pain for me, as the two GCC versions are so closely related I didn't even think it could be an issue.
This continues the long legacy of Linux "source-level" compatibility, where you need to recompile the whole world with a new compiler whenever one of your components is updated.
I did manage to work my way out of this mud pit, but like many times before, I've ended up with another thousand-line meta-program that's sure to raise eyebrows if it ever becomes an issue. Yarlch. :^(
Some good came out of this though, my solution ended up being portable, and as clean but less verbose than the VC++ solution. It is very limited in scope though (basic types, STL types, boost tuples and unlimited combinations of the same).
No trackbacks yet.

Six years ago, the Other Half and I went on our first proper holiday together. We'd already been together a year and we'd been on the Uni ski trip with our friends, but that didn't really count.
So, we spent all the money we got for our 21st birthdays and splashed out on 12 amazing days in Mauritius (ignoring the part where I got salmonella on a yacht… I digress).
While on this holiday, we took a photo of our feet at sunset. And thus started the 'Feet Photo' tradition. Ever since, we've taken photos of our feet to remember the holiday.
And in 2014, a third little pair of toes was added to the collection.
These photos are incredibly special to us. When I was pregnant, one of the first things we thought of that started to bring excitement rather than shock and panic was the fact we'd be able to include the baby in our Feet Photos. One day, we'll own our own place and be able to put these photos up in a frame, telling our family's story. But for now, they remain in digital format only…
Surprisingly, when I was rebranding the blog over the summer, these photos didn't inspire our new name. But they certainly helped make it feel like the perfect fit.
