The city government will be closely considering connecting the public schools here via wi-fi to enhance the capabilities of teachers through the use of technology to teach elementary students.
The plan came out on Friday after Mayor John Geesnell Yap realized the need to connect the schools via wi-fi so the teachers will have an easier time to teach with the help of tablet technology.
Teaching materials are already placed in the tablets distributed to the teachers here in the city.
Key officials of the city and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) were on hand to grace the distribution of more than 3,000 tablet computers to teachers.
The tablets are said to help enhance teaching and make it easier to teachers to teach students.
USAID mission director Lawrence Hardy II took time to distribute the tablets during ceremonies at a local elementary school located in barangay Mansasa.
The tablets are loaded with classroom observation tool called Standard Classroom Observation Protocol for Educators for Literacy (SCOPE-L).
Other materials installed in the tablet are digital versions of USAID-developed teaching and learning resources, which will be used by school heads in providing instructional support to early grade teachers.
Hardy did a read-along session with Grade 3 students and also observed a class where the the teachers were able to demonstrate the tablet-based application for assessing literacy practices.

Child Support
In Las Vegas, the formula for calculating child support is established by law. If it is set in black and white by statute, you may ask why you would require an attorney.
You must have a child support lawyer, because the process of calculating child support becomes much more complicated when there is a joint custody agreement in place or when other factors apply that could cause a deviation up or down in child support.
Child support in Las Vegas is determined by various factors, including the types of custody that were established and the incomes of the parents. The legal factors are extensive and the facts or circumstances of your case must be understood and applied to those legal factors by a experiences Divorce and Child support lawyer. Learn more and call a knowledgeable Divorce and Child support lawyer for legal assistance.
In the past, Las Vegas child support determinations depended on who won primary custody of the childrenor joint custody of the children. The Nevada Supreme Court opinion known as Rivero has changed this. The court decided that the amount of actual time spent with a child may be a more important indication of the amount of child support payments than the custody label listed in the divorce agreement.
Moreover, other deviations from the statutory formula for child support can be argued by a Las Vegas child support lawyer for a variety of reasons, including:
Health insurance and medical expenses, particularly those for children with chronic illnesses or developmental delays;
Household incomes;
Educational needs;
Day-to-day needs of the child, including day care, clothing and school supplies; and
Relationship factors.
The information about child support contained on this page is not intended to be legal advice about child support. Your child support matter should always be evaluated by a local child support lawyer. You should treat child support with the seriousness it requires. Just as you would not likely conduct surgery on yourself, you should not represent yourself in court regarding your child support matter. At the very least, consult with a local child support lawyer—multiple times if necessary if you insist upon representing yourself.
Because child support is important to you, Las Vegas child support lawyer Anthony M. Wright will fight for you in court if you believe that the child support amount is unfair.

'Scrubs' actress hired as spokeswoman for flu vaccination campaign
WASHINGTON — Just days after Sanofi Pasteur's hiring of actor Chris O'Donnell as a celebrity spokesman for its flu vaccination campaign, the American Lung Association has hired actress Sarah Chalke for its campaign, for which it is also collaborating with Sanofi Pasteur.
The American Lung Association announced the enlistment of Chalke for its "Faces of Influenza" initiative to promote flu immunizations. Chalke, a cast member of the show Scrubs and a mother, will be the spokeswoman for the campaign during the 2012-2013 season.
"Like all mothers, I do whatever I can to keep my child healthy, and an important part of this is having him immunized against the flu," Chalke said. "And, to make sure the people in my son's life don't spread the virus to him, my family and I have all gotten our flu shots and will continue getting immunized every year."
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends annual flu shots for everyone 6 months and older, particularly pregnant women and people ages 50 years and older, who are at higher risk of developing complications. Children ages 6 months through 8 years receiving the shot for the first time should receive two doses approximately one month apart for optimal protection, according to the CDC.

"This team is made up of hard-working journalists whom I respect," she added. "I feel fortunate to have reporters, anchors, photojournalists and a management team who have been covering the Tennessee Valley for decades. That local knowledge and perspective is invaluable."
Denise has called Alabama home since 2004. Prior to moving to the Tennessee Valley, Denise worked as News Director at WSFA-TV in the capital city, Montgomery. She has been a News Director since 1998 at stations in Boise, Idaho, and Charleston, South Carolina. Prior to becoming a News Director, Denise was a newscast producer.

The basic components of Adeli® Approach are the Adeli Suit® and the Adeli Treatment Methods. (1991)
The Adeli Suit® creates a kind of imitation muscular framework to steady the patient's trunk and extremities as close as possible to the norm. It maximizes the course of muscle movements in the way they would have moved if they had functioned naturally. It also makes the pathological synergies less pronounced.
The Adeli Treatment Methods represent a special set of patterning exercises. The Adeli exercises are performed in an Adeli Suit®. Each set of exercises is chosen individually according to form of disorder, age and general condition.
There are also some prior exercises to be performed before putting on an Adeli Suit®. Exercises are performed in a definite sequence during the treatment course. As they load heavily the patient's muscles, they tend to amplify and, to some extent, normalize the afferent flow to the muscular-articular apparatus. As a result, the brain's central structures responsible for motor control are brought into play and the underdeveloped functional systems come under more stimuli.
One of the most useful effects of the use of Adeli Methods is that pathological reflexes become markedly less pronounced and new patterns of movement, closer to norm, develop much faster.
As the patients learn more to move all by themselves, they show dramatic improvements in speech, intellect and visual, auditory, tactile and other sensory functions.

U.S. Department of Homeland Security officials told Congress they need more equipment, cutter fleets, and manpower to fight transnational drug cartels from Mexico, Central and South America, and Europe. Cartels have almost unlimited funds to traffic drugs into the country, they say.
These international cartels who include America in their target are very motivated and quite business savvy. They incorporate sophisticated technology to transport their illegal cargo, officials told a meeting of the House Border and Maritime Security subcommittee. Representatives heard testimony from security officials from the U.S. Coast Guard, the Department of State, and Department of Homeland Security.
Those working to assist in the fight against the drug influx asked Congress for more money this week. The Coast Guard says it needs $1.4 billion dollars for their budget next year (2017), reported Courthouse News. Investing in cutter fleets by itself could result in a 60 percent reduction in criminal drug trafficking. "These entities are capable, sophisticated smuggling organizations that start in the southern hemisphere and end up in New York City. They'll do anything for a profit," U.S. Coast Guard Deputy Commandant for Operations Vice Admiral Charles Ray was reported to say.
Ray said that the U.S. had a historic amount of cocaine that was trafficked into the states from South America. Cocaine is the "predominant drug being trafficked via maritime routes, bringing with it shifts in smuggling tactics."
"The change in flow of cocaine toward the U.S. from South America from 2015 to 2016 was the largest increase the service has observed to date. The rise of cocaine production is attributed to the largest single-year increase of coca cultivation in Colombia ever recorded (immediately following the second largest single-year increase in more than a decade)," he wrote in his written testimony to the subcommittee. He titled his report, "A Dangerous and Sophisticated Adversary: The Threat to the Homeland Posed by Cartel Operations."
The vice admiral wrote drug traffickers use "go-fast vessels" and "purpose-built self-propelled semi-submersible (SPSS)," to disperse loads onto more numerous and harder to detect conveyances."
The Coast Guard, the U.S. Border Patrol, and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) work together to stop the flow of drugs into the country.
"If you can buy it on the open market, they have the funds to buy it. They can communicate with satellites and their ingenuity, especially in the maritime sense, it's impressive. They can build a craft in a ditch in a jungle in Ecuador capable of sailing the distance from Florida to Washington State carrying about 7,000 or 8,000 pounds of cocaine," Admiral Ray was reported to say.
The permeable border on land was also discussed.
Chairwoman of the Border and Maritime Security subcommittee, Rep. Martha McSally (R-Arizona) asked Tucson Sector Border Patrol Chief Paul Beeson about barrier breachs in border fence gates. She relayed that she had personally seen a gate in a border fence where cartel members used welding equipment to penetrate it and use it repeatedly without detection from border patrol agents.
"Do you think this level of sophistication is the new normal for cartel operations? Are there additional tools or authorities we need to give you in order to detect and interdict these types of operations so they don't go on for years before they are detected?" Rep. McSally asked.
"They are very sophisticated in their approach," Chief Beeson answered. "They have the benefit of time. They have plenty of time to wait and seek the right opportunity to engage in their illegal opportunity. They use scouting networks. They utilize encrypted communications."
Chief Beeson also relayed that continued collaboration with local law enforcement, Homeland Security Investigations units, and intelligence gatherers, was critical to combat drug trafficking by cartels. Officials said they also need lawmakers in Mexico and other countries to continue to cooperate with them in the drug war.
"Smuggling drugs and people is a billion dollar business and the individuals in charge have one goal in mind: make as much money as possible delivering illicit narcotics and people across the border and into the United States," Rep. McSally said during the hearing. "As we increase our focus this Congress on securing the border, we have to be clear-eyed about the dangerous and sophisticated threat that we face from our adversaries on the other side."

Hospital Readmission Penalties Increase Mortality Rates
Double-edged sword
By Working Nurse
Readmission penalties have made strides in reducing hospital readmission rates, but these reimbursement penalties have also had an unintended consequence: higher mortality for heart failure patients.
More Fines, More Deaths
Federal regulations established under the Affordable Care Act now impose substantial financial penalties on hospitals that under-perform on various quality metrics, including 30-day readmission rates for certain conditions. In fiscal 2017, 79 percent of U.S. hospitals suffered Hospital Readmission Reduction Program (HRRP) penalties, which totaled about $564 million. Data from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) suggests that the HRRP penalties have indeed reduced hospital readmission rates.
However, a recent study in the November 12 online edition of JAMA Cardiology warns that reductions in heart failure readmissions have gone hand in hand with increased patient mortality. The study compared heart failure data from 416 hospitals before and after implementation of the HRRP penalties. Although the 30-day readmission rate for heart failure fell from 20.0 to 18.4 percent, after implementation, the risk-adjusted 30-day patient mortality rate rose from 7.2 to 8.6 percent.
Heart failure patients' risk-adjusted one-year mortality rate climbed from 31.3 to 36.3 percent, a 16 percent increase.
Patients at Risk
Senior author Gregg Fonarow, M.D., a UCLA cardiologist and professor of cardiovascular medicine, believes these results demonstrate that the HRRP penalties have "incentivized strategies that unintentionally harmed patients with heart failure." Coauthor Ankur Gupta, M.D., a cardiovascular research fellow at the Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, says the real impact of the readmission penalties is reduced hospital utilization, not better quality care.
"To avoid the penalties, hospitals now have incentives to keep patients out of hospitals longer, possibly even if previously some of these patients would have been readmitted earlier for clinical reasons," he explains. "If a patient dies, then that patient cannot be readmitted," remarks Fonarow, who says the HRRP heart failure guidelines should be restructured to "focus on incentivizing improving quality and patient-centered outcomes."

The Study of Graphic Sense and Its Effects on the Acquisition of Literacy. Final Report.
Hernandez-Chavez, Eduardo; Curtis, Jan
This report describes a study on the development of children's conceptualizations of written language, that is, their graphic sense. The study investigated three issues: (1) whether acquisition of literacy is a developmental process common to all normal children, (2) whether the levels of graphic sense tend to be associated with particular sociographic background variables, and (3) whether a relationship can be demonstrated between graphic sense level and performance on traditional measures of readiness and achievement. A total sample of 114 children from kindergarten and first grade were chosen. Of these, 43 children were in the general school enrollment and the others were from the bilingual education program of Calistoga in Napa Valley (California). A card sorting task was devised to test the development of the children's graphic sense. Data were also collected on the children's socialization to literacy, reading readiness and achievement, and oral language proficiency. The data and results of analyses are discussed at length. It was found that: (1) graphic sense is developed by all children, (2) the level of graphic sense is strongly related to the nature of a child's exposure to written language at home, and (3) there is no demonstrated relationship between graphic sense and readiness for school.

Mercury is a brand owned by Ford Motor Company and was founded in 1938. Mercury cars are meant to bridge the gap between the mainstream Ford models and the luxury Lincolns by tapping the entry-level luxury market. Starting 1945, Mercury and Lincoln were united under the same division of Ford.
The brand got discontinued in 2011, when Ford Motor Company announced that they will only be focusing on their regular Ford models and the luxury Lincolns. Production ceased in the fourth quarter of 2010, and the last model that came out of an assembly line was a Mercury Grand Marquis on January 4, 2011. Even though the company has so-called "2011" models for their Mariner and Milan models, they were in fact manufactured in 2010.
There are five popular Mercury models that are still on American roads and available to buy and sell on the used market. In spite of the cars being classified as "luxury", they run on Ford platforms, so spare parts and labor costs aren't outrageously high. They also come with high safety ratings and low accident rates. Insurance costs are quite low too – coverage for the mainstream Mercuries is well below $1,400. Here are the five models and their average yearly premiums:
- 2011 Mercury Grand Marquis – $1,280
- 2011 Mercury Mariner – $1,226
- 2011 Mercury Milan – $1,367
- 2010 Mercury Mountaineer – $1,267
- 2009 Mercury Sable – $1,170.
In other words, if you want a Mercury and your only concerns are about insurance premiums, then stop worrying. They cost way less than average to insure – the average national policy is almost $1,600, so you will even be saving a few hundred dollars each year. If you want a luxury car that's made by the reputable German carmaker and don't want to spend an arm and a leg on a Lincoln, then Mercury is the right choice for your needs.

Grassroots rugby requires tireless work behind the scenes, and one man who has done more than most was rewarded for his efforts at a glittering ceremony at Twickenham on Wednesday night.
Andy Woodruff is a stalwart of Avonmouth Old Boys RFC in Bristol, and his efforts through all aspects of the club earned him the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Crabbie's National Rugby Awards.
A player in his younger days, Andy devotes countless hours to ensure the club is run as smoothly as possible, and two of his colleagues collected the award on his behalf at the ceremony at Twickenham.
Ted Britton, the chairman of Avonmouth, praised the efforts of his club colleague, and felt the award was richly deserved.
"We nominated Andy for the award for the tireless work he puts in in and around the club," he said. "In his younger days, he was an excellent player.
"He was captain of the seconds for about seven years, I remember playing in that team and I think we went two years undefeated.
"He is a stalwart – he took over as fixture secretary and he helps with the pitch. He does a lot of the work himself, and he's also on the committee.
"Basically he will do anything that you ask of him and he's just such a reliable guy. He's talking about stepping back but hopefully this will make him stay a little bit longer!"
Rodney Kennett, the club chairman, was equally effusive in his praise of Andy, who could not make the ceremony due to work commitments.
"Andy has come in and looks after the rugby side of the business," he said. " He deserves the award because of the tireless work he puts in and the number of hours he puts in, considering his job.
"I think he'll be very pleased! He's a modest guy, keeps some of his ideas under wraps and gets them out at committee, I honestly think he deserves it."
Another achievement for the Bristol area from Wednesday night's awards went to Hills Construction, whose partnership with Kingston RFC landed them Club Sponsor of the Year.
The awards profile all that is great about rugby, from elite and international players to people at lower levels who work for nothing to help keep clubs afloat.
England star Chris Robshaw is an ambassador for the awards, now in their third year, and said the importance of the salt of the earth roots of rugby could not be underestimated.
"It's where people find their love of the game," said Harlequins flanker Robshaw. "If you want to grow the player pool in England and continue to produce players who go on play for professional sides or club sides, or international sides, it all starts at grassroots level.
"You've got people from all over the country come down to Twickenham to enjoy the occasion – that's the important thing to remember.
"Everyone plays their part to make rugby clubs successful, whether that's coaching, mini levels, boys, girls, kit, everyone has a role to play and it's really important that awards like these really value those people."
Crabbie's Alcoholic Ginger Beer passionately support rugby at all levels. To help amateur clubs thrive, they have launched Crabbie's Rugby Rewards. Find out how your club can earn kit for every bottle of Crabbie's sold in your clubhouse at www.crabbiesrugby.co.uk

The rubble piled alongside Tacoma's Sacred Heart Church last week had a history beyond the mortar and brick that built it in 1924.
The two-story building became a school in 1929, and between then and its closing in 1980, a few thousand children created more than history. They made memories.
"As a kid, it seemed like a huge building with these long hallways," said Tim Smith. "I went there from second through seventh grade, and it was an awesome place to be."
Perched near 45th Street and McKinley Avenue, the church and school fell into the neighborhood known as McKinley Hill. People didn't just live there, their families were built there, generation after generation.
"My mom lived on G Street growing up and she and her sisters went to Sacred Heart School," Laura Davis said. "When she was married, she moved about six blocks, where her five children were born.
"We didn't just go to Sacred Heart School. Our parents were married in the church there, and my grandfather donated the pipe organ. It was like that for all the families."
The building was the pet project of the Rev. Robert Ryan, the church's second priest. After it was built, he waited five years to open the school while searching for Catholic nuns to teach.
In 1929, the Sisters of Providence opened Sacred Heart School with 89 students between first and eighth grade.
"When Mom was there, they doubled up on grades and used four classrooms downstairs," said Davis, who now lives in Puyallup. "The upper floor was for piano lessons, dance lessons. It had a stage, too."
That lasted until 1943, when attendance reached 235. The stage became a makeshift classroom, and both floors were used. In 1954, a new church was built, but the school was unchanged.
It was the same building in the late '60s, when Jeanne DePaul attended, as it had been in 1929.
"It didn't have a cafeteria, a school nurse or a library," said DePaul.
There was one major change in 1970. The Sisters of Providence no longer taught, replaced by lay teachers. That transition was easy.
"For us, it wasn't just a school, it was an extended family," DePaul said. "Between faculty, students and parents, we all made lifelong friends."
The '70s were not kind to Sacred Heart.
"When I was in seventh grade in the mid-'70s, the school wasn't getting the draw of the students," Smith said. "At the bitter end, it just wasn't worth keeping it open."
The school closed in 1980, its building outdated, its attendance waning.
The church and parish used it for offices, meetings and storage.
"I'd drive by and there it would be, unchanged," said Smith, now 51. "I thought it would be there until the day I died."
A few years ago, the parish had engineers look at renovating the school, said the church's new priest, the Rev. Tuan Nguyen. The price tag was $3 million just to refit the walls and inner structure.
The building was condemned by the city, which cited damage already showing and the fear that an earthquake would bring it down. Last week, the school building was demolished.
"We hope to have a new building there," Nguyen said.
That will depend on community support and grants, he said.
No one, Nguyen said, wanted to demolish the building, but there seemed no choice. They couldn't use it and could not afford to bring it up to standards 90 years after it was constructed.
Throughout the week, former students drifted by and picked up bricks for themselves and friends. DePaul, who lives in Idaho, said a friend took one for her, and she'll put it in a place of honor.
"My garden, maybe," DePaul said.
A community of former students began a Facebook page, finding one another again decades after attending Sacred Heart School.
"The sense of family, of community, never left us," Davis said. "We were all connected. Many of us still are. Everyone has the same memories."
One of those is of Hot Dog Thursday.
"We had no access to hot meals at school, but once a month we had Hot Dog Thursday," DePaul said. "A group of parents would gather in the parish hall and prepare hot dogs. You ordered ahead of time, then they'd deliver them to the school.
"White napkins for plain hot dogs, yellow napkins for those with mustard. And the moms always baked cupcakes, too."

BISAM was pleased to present at last week's Portfolio Risk and Performance Measurement forum hosted by Financial Research Management. Our presentation focused on integrated performance and risk, and the role technology has played (and continues to play) in shaping the topic. We presented a number of options a firm should consider as they deploy performance and risk technology, and the pros and cons of each option.

Not long ago, the notion of an investor requesting multi factor attribution on their fixed income portfolios was unheard of. To a near lay-person, the concept of explaining the movements of a portfolio sensitive to interest rates was crazy. Multi factor attribution was for the front office, and its value was hampered by the limitations of the solutions at that time - unofficial results driven by lackluster data quality, without the ability to control data sources (outside of what the vendor chose for you).
At the same time, vendors and solutions providers were working hard to convince the industry that one attribution methodology was better than the other. Lehman (then Barclays and finally Bloomberg) had "Hybrid Attribution," other vendors provided "Key Rate Duration", while still others tried to convince the industry they what they needed was "Custom Attribution." I'll let you in on a secret: 90% of the time the same story is told in the same way. The brand name of a methodology is actually a marketing exercise.
I recently saw the movie La La Land, and it got me thinking about the current state of technology in our industry. You're probably thinking "he's nuts - how could a blockbuster musical possibly align with technology in our industry?" Easy: the elegance of simplicity.

An article published recently on FT.com detailed the rise in use of ETFs as an alternative to actively managed (or passively managed) Mutual Funds. The piece, ETFs are Eating the Stock Market, notes that the reasons investors choose ETFs over Mutual Funds are well understood, and can be summarized as broad investment allocation across segments with low fees. The article goes on to surmise that ETFs are here to stay, even with a presumed turnaround in active management in 2017. So for those firms selecting ETFs as a quick and easy way to gain exposure to a specific segment, what might be the overall impact on your portfolio, and how can you prepare for the potential of hidden (and unintended) risks?

RIMES hosted their first annual client conference on September 15 in New York City, and invited me to participate on a panel regarding the unification of performance and risk - a topic BISAM has been exploring in some detail throughout 2016. The panel moderated by David Spaulding touched on many of the more practical challenges of this burgeoning topic. In fact, David summarized the dimensions of unification as systematic, organizational and formulaic - essentially the technology, operations, and algorithms that will fuel the continued adoption.
A question from the audience has stuck with me since. What will unification actually look like? What should the industry demand from the solution providers, and what should the solution providers create? Let's explore.

Fixed Income Attribution solutions are notoriously data hungry, requiring immense amounts of data from many sources to seamlessly decompose portfolio and benchmark returns. Acquiring the data is just one small part of the equation - equally important is integrating, matching, and validating the data - not to mention ensuring the portfolio managers and external customers are happy with the selections. When it comes to choosing data vendors and data tools, the priority has typically been to focus first on selecting a vendor of index and analytics data that could meet the requirements of internal users and customers, and then simply leveraging that vendor's data tools for a low (or no) fee.

Investment Performance Standards as Matchmaker? Aligning the Goals of the Investor with the Methods of the Manager
It is well known that the GIPS Standards were designed to provide transparency to investors across investment managers - to effectively create an apples-to-apples mechanism for understanding performance and uncovering talent. When GIPS launched, they were a regionally focused set of optional rules that were quickly adopted on a global scale. In short order, they became a competitive advantage to those firms who chose to follow, and allowed investment management firms to attract customers. A formal GIPS Verification process soon followed and helped the cause even further - to engender trust amongst investors in a given firm's results and help the investor decide to whom their business is awarded.

With the recent volatility in the global markets, proving Alpha to your customers has likely taken on a renewed focus. Some clients may be asking how the instability in Asian markets is negatively affecting their portfolio. Others may view volatility as a buying opportunity and want to know how much they have gained since doubling down in Asia. Still others might be questioning their need for active management and asking you for their YTD results vs. their targeted benchmark. In these cases and others, proving alpha to your customers is a vital part of the Performance Analyst's role within any organization. Just as vital is the ability of your performance application to prove the Alpha you've created for both your customers and your internal clients.
As a Performance Analyst, you're often called upon to provide a wide range of performance results, with detailed explanations when these results don't meet expectations. With this in mind, does your performance application help you or hinder you?

As the title conveniently trough a pop culture reference* suggest, we'll be talking about power.
Engine power that is. The question was, how much power does the used EMAX BL2210/25 engine consume. So a measuring contraption was built:
And after much fun fiddling with it, this is the result:
As expected, almost linear ratio between output power and consumption. Almost linear because the measurements themselves weren't perfect, since they needed to be interupted for the engine to cool off (no flight, no airflow).

|stable surely ...
|its beta rom because you get good user interface and extra features which not available in your stable rom
|if u want to explore ur phone more, then switch to beta, let me tell u one thing, u can't do vice versa means if u switch to global beta then u have to carry beta rom, if u want to switch back then u need to unlock bootloader
|It's Beta Rom for me You can enjoy the features lot before Stable Rom
|I prefer beta ROM . Because beta users get update in weekly basis.And beta user gets more features than stable users .And don't forget one thing beta ROM contains few bugs ..
akshay sinha
It's not necessary to unlock bootloader. We can flash stable rom with Mi Flash tool.
|thnx...frnds for this information
It's depends on you.. if you want early access to new features than you should switch to Beta ROM.. but Beta ROM might have bugs so careful...
stable ROM is bug free ROM and you get all features perfectly working.
Feroz Muhammed
alpha flash tool is not working all the time bro
akshay sinha
It is working Bro. And that is always the safest method. I have flashed many times using Mi flash tool. Unlocking bootloader is necessary (most recommended) for flashing beta rom with flash tool.

Man accused of killing New Castle woman, stuffing remains in suitcase agrees to plea deal
NEW CASTLE, Ind. – A man accused of killing a 22-year-old New Castle woman and stuffing her remains in a suitcase has agreed to a plea deal.
Anthony Dailey faced charges of murder and abuse of a corpse in connection with the death of Kirsten Sidwell. The prosecutor dropped the corpse abuse charge last week.
Dailey pleaded guilty in court Thursday to voluntary manslaughter. The plea agreement calls for a 25-year prison term instead of the state minimum 55-year sentence for murder.
Sidwell's father said the last time he saw his daughter alive was on the morning of March 31, 2015. He said he told her goodbye before she left for work that morning. He tried texting her later that day, but she never responded. His calls went straight to voicemail.
Police arrested Dailey a few days after a fisherman found Sidwell's remains inside a suitcase in a northern Henry County pond on April 2, 2015. The Henry County coroner ruled that Sidwell died from asphyxiation by strangulation.
Dailey, who will turn 39 later this month, was an acquaintance of Sidwell's. Court documents show he made incriminating statements to his sister, texting her that he "messed up" and later admitting to putting Sidwell's body in a suitcase and dumping it in a pond.
He initially told police he'd known Sidwell for years but maintained they weren't dating. Key evidence in the case included carpet fibers found with Sidwell's body that matched the carpet in Dailey's apartment, bedding in the apartment consistent with the colors and fibers of a blanket found with Sidwell and a blood smear on the baseboard of Dailey's bed.
Dailey's trial was originally set for July 15, 2015, but was pushed back several times with the latest trial date scheduled for next month.
Dailey's sentencing hearing is set for 9 a.m. on April 19.

Today is the year's first Feast of Fretting Over Whom we Might be Offending. When we want to celebrate something, but worry we might offend people. And just end up digging ourselves into bigger holes. Like Burton's prayer last Mothering Sunday for "all the men who can't be mothers and wouldn't want to be". Because he didn't want to leave anyone out.
So today we're celebrating Ss Cyril and Methodius. Who, by inventing a script in which to write Slavic languages, became the patron saints of American political resignations.

We are totally overwhelmed by the response to our Special Colour competition with 350 entries received from all corners of the UK, with countries as far and wide as Australia, Spain, Germany, Holland and Canada amongst others.
There were so many fabulous entries, with many of you taking time to explain why you like a colour so much and presenting it in such a creative and beautiful way. Like our judges, Sarah Neal (editor of Lets Knit Magazine), Phil (TheTwistedYarn), Lucy (Attic24 blog), we really could spend hours sifting through them, getting lost in the descriptions, wondering at the found objects from leaves to, bottles of nail varnish and what look like parts of children's toys!
Among the more regular items sent to us were photos of cars, flowers, buildings, fabric scraps and many types of yarns. There were also hand painted tiles, test tubes of spices and even lichen – carefully sealed in a bag.
The background stories were fascinating too, particularly one lady who looked with no luck for years to find a yarn that replicated the colours in earrings given to her by her father, she even tried to blend the shade herself from dyed wool. Unfortunately it didn't work. She describes the colour beautifully 'like water with petrol drops on the top, iridescence – colour changing' and enclosed a selection of buttons to illustrate (the earrings were way too precious to send of course).
Another favourite was a card with a hand printed bird in a lovely shade of red – like 'sunlight seen through closed eyelids' – so descriptive and also described as 'a yummy-orangey-corally-tomatoey red!' – We know exactly what she means but not sure if that name would fit on a ball band!
We even received a lovely piece of machine embroidery with two colour suggestions – Leaf Green and Tangerine – our Stylecraft logo was included too, perfectly reproduced down to the little flower. Another green request (there were a lot of greens) which came with a lovely long letter explaining the colour she wanted was just the same as her baby's bath towel but as she didn't want to ruin it she wouldn't make a clipping. Then she found the same shade was shown on a particular brand of nappies – again she thought it best not to send us a nappy! Luckily for us she found the perfect shade in some beads, 'Minty Green'.
There was inspiration everywhere such as orange post office stickers that reminded the entrant of a recent holiday to South Africa where the sunsets were amazing; a fridge magnet with the loveliest shade of duck egg blue and a few nail polishes and lipstick too.
All in all we have loved each and every single entry and are amazed by the creativity that they show, thank you all so much!
We will be revealing the ten finalists on 15th May both here, on Facebook and in the June edition of Let's Knit magazine. It's then over to you to vote for your favourite which will be added to the Stylecraft Special DK range. We have to warn you it's going to be a hard choice – all ten shades are gorgeous.

Go to Intel
Intel are a relatively late arrival in the 3D arena and their first chip was the i740. An AGP 2X chip co-designed by Intel and Real3D it was fairly well recieved, but, couldn't compete with chips released around the same time. Image quality is among the best you can get, but, the speed, while good, was lacking when compared to the likes of the Matrox G200 and the NVidia Riva TNT. However cards based on the i740 are quite cheap and are a decent buy for the gamer on a budget. Intel is also set to release it's i810 chip, which is again fairly low-end and aimed at the budget gamer. It is part of an integrated multimedia system and will use main memory rather than any local memory to store it's textures, etc. Most cards that do this end up being very slow when compared with stand-alone cards, but, Intel has a few technological tricks to keep the speed up. Might be interesting. You could do worse than an Intel card at the moment, but then again, there are so many REALLY GOOD cards available quite cheaply, that you'd wonder if it's worth taking the performance drop for the sake of a little more money. PCI versions of their cards are also available.
