Vince Gangi and Skate for Steven
When we heard that MKTGer Vince Gangi had pulled together a fundraiser for a local teen recently diagnosed with cancer, we needed to know more. Vince gave us the details about his Skate for Steven event last month and all of the awesome partners who helped him make the day a success.
Steven is my neighbor and always comes over to play with my boys. You would often see him skating in the streets with his brother. He's the sweetest boy you'll ever meet, polite, caring, respectful, the whole nine! Actually, the first thing he did after surgery was thank the doctors for making him better. What 13-year-old does that?
When I heard the news that he had a brain tumor my heart dropped. My father passed away from cancer and that was hard to see, but seeing an innocent child go through this is unbearable. Right away I knew I had to do something for him and his family. I got the impression that his family were just getting by and trying to make ends meet so I wanted to raise money for them. I also wanted to do something that would be fun for kids and also have all his friends involved. My wheels were turning and I quickly came up with the idea of roller skating… the name "Skate for Steven" was created.
Coming from a large Italian family, we were always hosting parties, but this was my first public fundraiser event. Once I had the venue set I started advertising heavily on social media, on local sites and with home-made flyers. Then I started thinking about how to raise additional funds. I ordered "Skate for Steven" bracelets that were sold at the school Steven attended, a local pastry shop donated all the desserts for our bake sale and MKTG donated candy for our candy sale as well as signage items for our raffle. A variety of local businesses also donated gift certificates for our raffle and plenty of food and beverages for the guests. On the day of the event, dozens of family and friends came out to show their support. Even the Greenwich Press heard the news and came to cover the story for their paper. The event was definitely a success!

PGA Championship 2016: Recap
From July 25-31, MKTG hosted dozens of our clients and partners at the 2016 PGA Championship in our private VIP hospitality suite within the historic Club House at Baltusrol. Despite the hot and humid forecast, we all had a blast traversing the course catching some world-class golf.
We also all witnessed history as Jimmy Walker took home his first major title finishing -14 and holding on to the lead the entire time. Walker became the first wire-to-wire winner of the PGA Championship since Phil Mickelson, who won at Baltusrol in 2005. In fact, all four majors this year were won by first-timers including Masters champion Danny Willett; Dustin Johnson, who won the United States Open; and Henrik Stenson, the British Open champ. Walker had missed the cut in his last two majors, never finished higher than tied for seventh at any major and was perhaps best known on the PGA Tour for his unusual hobby: astrophotography, according to the New York Times.
In addition to witnessing Walker's triumph, we saw reigning PGA Champion Jason Day, the world's top ranked golfer, make the final holes crazy intense on Sunday , and even got up close and personal with stars like Jordan Spieth, Rory McIlroy, Dustin Johnson, John Daly, among others. Check out our snaps below and on Instagram and Snapchat.

How Not To Behave
This weekend I was at Rockingham for the British GT & F3 championships where I witnessed Felipe Nasr win the F3 title and ex BTCC driver Jonny Adam win the first race of the season for the Beechdean Aston Martin team alongside Andrew Howard. Also this weekend another ex BTCC driver Steven Kane won the American Le Mans series race at Baltimore with Humaid Al Masaood.
Meanwhile, it was all kicking off north of the border in Scotland as Knockhill hosted the British Touring Car Championships. Whilst there were many talking points throughout the event, the main one involved Jason Plato and Tom Boardman in race three. With the current champion leading, Boardman was close behind seeking his first race win. It was obvious the Seat Leon was faster in a straight line and as the pair started lap 4 the Chevrolet received a nudge from behind under braking for the first turn. However, a subsequent nudge further into the first complex was enough to send Plato off and into the tyre wall leaving Boardman to claim his first BTCC Victory.
Now whilst there was contact, it was slight and probably avoidable but on another day in another situation would not have led to a retirement. However opinions are divided as to whether there should have been punishment handed to Boardman as a result. Obviously, Plato himself was not happy, but had the roles been reversed, I'm sure he would have written it off as a racing incident. While he is never happy to be on the receiving end, he has given out more than his fair share of contact in the past.
We can all argue and debate this subject for a long while, as all the Plato fans will disagree with the non Plato fans and vice versa. That's fair enough. We all love rivalries and let's face it, you get heated debates in all sports from rival fans. However, I would like to think that nearly every fan of Jason Plato would agree that his angry response on Twitter that evening, plenty of time after the 'heat of the moment' was totally unacceptable. To call a fellow competitor a 'Talentless Pikey' stepped way beyond the boundary of professionalism. Whilst there maybe one or two drivers in the championship who's talent could be debated, Tom Boardman is not one of them. Jason's response to a BTCC fan and twitter user who told him it was a stupid thing to say was also unacceptable and showed him for the ungracious and sore loser he can be.
Jason is a well regarded driver, for that there is no doubt and a role model to many. Also, as a representative of the BRDC he should be setting an example and acting in a professional manner. There are many sports stars who have landed themselves in hot water over comments on twitter and I would like to think this situation doesn't go unnoticed by the powers that be. At the very least, a public and personal apology should be made.
There are many good racing drivers out there that struggle to get sponsors and a budget together to enable them to get a race seat. Good PR and a strong fan base help these guys no end. This isn't the case for Jason Plato, sponsorship deals and public exposure come along frequently to add to his extensive fan base and many teams would offer him a race seat at the drop of a hat. If a young upcoming driver had his attitude and behaved the way he does at times, then they would no doubt be kicked out of a team quite quickly. Unfortunately, Plato is a big draw for the BTCC and he knows that. He loves being a big fish in a small pond and is happy to voice his opinions when it suits him. He is quick to criticise others but doesn't consider his own actions and their possible consequences. I've said it before and I will say it again, no man is bigger than the British Touring Car Championships and it will continue to survive without him. I have no problem with drivers showing passion, but he went beyond that and I hope someone makes him realise the error of his ways pretty soon.

Nice one Chris, succinct and to the point. Can you imagine the outrage if Matt Neal acted in this manner? Let's not forget Plato tipped Neal into a spin back across the track at a much faster Snetterton track, sheer luck meant the worst damage was on the Civic and not to a driver, steward or fan.
September 5, 2011 at 4:39 pm
Some very good points there Chris, particularly the one about sports stars and Twitter. A footballer or a cricketer can't seem to sneeze on Twitter without a public backlash and demand of an apology.
Unfortunately, nobody in the mainstream sports media will have noticed his remarks. The only newspaper with half an eye on the BTCC seems to be The Sun, but unfortunately they are one of Jason's sponsors.
As someone who covered the racing yesterday maybe I should kick up a fuss.
September 5, 2011 at 4:41 pm
he'll probably say that someone nicked his twitter account like he did last time he got drunk.
September 5, 2011 at 4:58 pm
I'm glad this article was written as Plato really wound me up and as a BTCC fan I think he's bringing the sport into disrepute. We all know Plato is a good driver, but personally I'm getting sick and tired of him whinging every time he doesn't win, and I beleive he's just showing himself up now. Every race meeting there is gonna be drivers who have bad luck or simply just a disappointing weekend for many different reasons, but these drivers keep a cool head and put in down to experience, even when interviewed on tv, unfortunately Plato seems to think it's acceptable to use tv interviews or twitter to show blatant disrespect to other drivers, the BTCC organisers or his own team who havnt provided him with a win in every race.
I think the Plato/Boardman clash was a racing incident and Plato was clearly holding up Boardman on the straights and even in the corners so no punishment should be given to Boardman as it wasn't done with malice, and afterall BTCC is renown for contact which adds a bit of excitement to the championship and has done for as long as I can remember.
I hope the BRDC discipline Plato for his lack of respect shown to a fellow driver on twitter as he's giving the impression to other drivers young and old that this behaviour is acceptable.
I think its time for Plato to do some historic racing or similar which isn't as competitive as I don't think he's bringing anything positive to the BTCC anymore, and tanishing his (great) name!
September 6, 2011 at 10:04 am
Very good article, whilst the race contact and accident have split views comments like that are out of order, as you have said any other driver would of been in a lot of trouble for those comments and damaged their career.
The fact is Plato has hit a lot of drivers in the past, I was there when he pulled a scary move on the back straight at Silverstone in 06 and sent Chilton the wrong way across the track. He needs to watch his actions on Twitter it can be a very career damaging tool. He has already had his account hacked last month and it upset people so he should know that this stuff is not clever.
Plato should really issue a full apology and be seen to shake hands at Rockingham with Boardman and be seen to bury it there. Plato would really come out better that way. If not its more ammo for the Plato haters and is a real stain on his career. Just as he becomes a member of the BRDC.
September 6, 2011 at 3:02 pm
To be Honest i expected nothing less off Plato as he has cried all season over things not going his way … you only have to look at last race meeting when he took Matt Neal out did you see Matt getting on Twitter nope …..
As for now being on the BRDC well think they will have something to say to him over his actions
And as for the Apology it took 2days for them to issue it ( hmmmm wasnt it TIN TOP TUESADY ) P R stunt incase it was brought up by the fans ……
We dont need drivers like that in BTCC if they cant handle it GET OUT AND GO WTCC where he wants to be ………..

> Your Questions How does capital affect my property taxes?
Capital affects your taxes in two ways.
When we construct, acquire or renew infrastructure, a portion of the cost comes from tax revenue, or the revenue is used to pay for debt which finances some projects.
When capital projects become operational, there are new costs associated with the operations.
Property tax revenue and user fees pay this portion.
In the end, we are able maintain our neighbourhoods and operate our new investments.
This applies to many things such as maintenance on new roads and the wages of lifeguards at our City facilities.

Forum > Today's Puzzles
The April 9 Sunday puzzle
Today's Sunday puzzle -- or perhaps I should say "unday uzzle" -- is by Gail Grabowski and is titled "Spout Nonsense." That first word is to be read as "SP out." The eight theme answers are familiar phrases with the first two letters, SP, removed:
Plumber, at times? ELLCHECKER
Herb-carrying semi? RIGOFPARSLEY
Unlikely to get sick? ILLRESISTANT
Flat-bodied fish depiction? RAYPAINTING
Boxer in the wrong profession? RINGCHICKEN
News of a crude carrier sighting? OILERALERT
One with a questionable sense of fashion? IFFYDRESSER
"Jush one more, bartender," e.g.? LITDECISION
"Spiffy" dates from 1853 and comes from the 17th-century British dialect word "spiff," which meant "a dandy; a well-dressed man." The origin of "spiff" is unknown. The 18th-century British slang word "spiflicated," which means "drunk," might be related to "spiff" -- and it might not. In modern-day British slang, "spiflicate" means "to destroy or annihilate" and "spiffy" is often "spivvy."
A spring chicken is a chicken from two to ten months old which has tender meat and can be boiled or fried. (Yes, I know that sounds inhumane. If you eat chicken, try not to think about how the meat got from the farm to your plate.) The use of "spring chicken" to refer to a young person dates from 1879. The term is usually used in the negative sense, e.g., "That woman is no spring chicken."
"Many an emailer" is AOLER. Many crosswords include ALER or NLER, referring to a baseball player in the American League or National League, but this is the first time I've seen AOLER in a puzzle -- and I've never seen or heard any of those three words anywhere except in crosswords. AOL was formerly America Online. Officially, the letters AOL no longer stand for anything, just as the letters KFC (formerly Kentucky Fried Chicken) officially no longer stand for anything. The word "email," which means "electronic mail," dates from 1982 and was originally spelled "e-mail" but now is more commonly spelled without the hyphen.
"Pet problem" is PEEVE. A "pet peeve" is a minor annoyance which bothers a particular person more than it bothers other people. Among my own pet peeves are people who loudly talk on a cell phone in public, people who say "for you and I" instead of the grammatically correct "for you and me," and people who insist on writing LOL after comments that are not even the slightest bit amusing. The Get Amused humor website has a seven-page list of pet peeves:
There are many nice things about having a pet peeve. You don't have to feed it or have it spayed or neutered or take it to the veterinarian or the groomer -- and you can have as many as you want. They make no noise and the neighbors will never complain.

Comments from Yellow Bamboo Students
We asked some students of Yellow Bamboo why they invest the time and effort to study. Here's some real life quotes from other students;
"Before I joined Yellow
Bamboo my life was a mess and I
--Lisa Kern, SWEDEN
--Nick Good, ENGLAND
"I got involved with the
Yellow Bamboo because I was
--Margret M Northcroft, AMERICA
I am studying the energy system Yellow Bamboo and find the combination of mantras, pranayama and the entire YB system very powerful. You learn how to draw universal energies from outside sources with the help of daily energy exercises, and store this energies in your personal energy center that is known as Hara in Qi Gong, Nei Gong etc. This stored energies mix with your personal energies and make you stronger and healthier. You will also be able to use this extra energies for healings similar as Reiki does.
Yellow Bamboo's techniques also make sense from the energy dynamics point of view. The mantras and pranayama exercises are methods of invoking energies, connecting with them and stimulating the subconscious and superconscious minds, methods of doing this are probably as old as humankind on Earth and have been used in one form or the other (with different words but same intent and same meaning) by shamans, priests, lamas, avatars, etc, since ever.
I feel that it is a great service to humankind that Mr. Pak Serengen combined methods and introduced them as Yellow Bamboo to everybody who would like to learn them, without making a gainful business out of it. God bless them for their dedicated work and generosity.
With warm regards,
Where does this leave healing systems like Reiki Healing?
Reiki, particularly Usui Reiki, is - to my understanding - especially useful for general healing. In the sense of overall stimulation of the patient's self healing process which requires adding healing energies from an outside source via a channel.(The Practitioner, or the healee her/himself) especially if the dis-ease is caused by energy depletion.
MPRUE (Magnussa Phoenix Reiki Universal Energy) is mainly used for energy surgery, it requires the practitioner to actively use the energies and work with them. We remove manually negative (disease) energy clusters, elementals, entity attachments, cordings, implants, blockages in the meridians, etc. You can also use MPRUE for manifestation and energy transformation with the techniques of the higher MPRUE levels. MPRUE is also speeding up the individual spiritual progress with the help of weekly empowerments and meditations.
Yellow Bamboo is an excellent way to store cosmic energy in your own hara and make it available for whatever purpose you need it. As you know, in your Hara you have a storage of your own life energy and when it is depleted, you feel weak, fall sick and eventually die. Now, if you add all this cosmic energies by daily energy exercises etc, you not only regenerate yourself and help your body to function at it's best, but you also have excess energy available for healing others, for manifestation and energy transformation, and - as some whom I know already experienced it - ward off people who attack you. I do not know what else YB can do as I only studied 2 out of 13 levels till now, but I feel that there is much more behind it.
I feel that all three systems can complement each other very well as all of them use universal energy and are based on universal laws and truths, although the individual practical application differs and it is also a question of personal preference what one feels most comfortable with. As for me, I love all three systems and integrate them in my life. One never stops learning, and I might even explore more in future. :-)))))
With love and best wishes,
My experience of Yellow Bamboo so far: Peter Semjonow ( Sweden )
I became Yellow Bamboo member sometime early 2004, I had tried it before and I wanted to explore it even more. During my time with YB i have had the chance to heal people, that have been successfully healed from chronic injuries, I have tried defending myself from attack during a YB workshop in Sweden, and I have had the chance to be the attacker myself three times, and I was knocked down every time I tried attacking. So I am very confident that Yellow Bamboo works very effectively in healing and protection.

Comments from students I have trained in the UK
The first Certified Yellow Bamboo UK workshop was held in March 2005 and it was a powerful few days of lessons, learning's, self empowerment and growth.
Below are the comments of the UK workshop attendees
One of the best workshops ever, received so much in so little time. I am leaving hereEmpowered, you'll be seeing me again
What can I say, from start to finish was a suprisingly great journey, Dez was so accomodating, sensitive to each and everyones needs, an experience that was amongst one of my greatest.
This course was the best ever, the healing was great, there were many great surpises along the way, I feel totally transformed, the laughter, the togetherness, and the well informed teachings, brought us all together in a very special way. Thank you, love and blessings
Even though I had previously done the course with another teacher, Dez's course was more spiritual with more energy work, I really enjoyed the new learnings and lessons that were shared, I know I have more to learn so I will see you in Bali.
A fantastic course to start a fantastic journey, an experience of great energy and Love, I wouls like top thank you for all your guidance and help and healing
A well run professional course, learning, healing, healing,healing, healing, and healing with spirits!
Thank you so much for your dedication and sharing. the course has clarified weak areas in my practice. experiencing the immediate presence of energy and spirit has reinforced my faith and consequently given me Strength in knowing that anything is possible.
The Healing is tremendous and Dez enhanced my own healing pratice and he has given me the answers I needed in relation to my protection.
Love and Light
Hi Dez,
Thank you for a wonderful weekend and for sharing your knowledge so expertly. I gained so much from it and thought that the blending of each and every person there was brilliant.
I can't believe the difference that I feel in myself already. My partner thought that I must of spent the whole weekend washing because I looked so much brighter, and when I gave my youngest daughter a hug she said I think that course must have done something to you, you feel different.
They were both feeling ill, he had a bad head and back and she had a headache, and has had stomach problems for years, and is having hospital treatment for it at the moment, the tablets she is on are giving her quite bad side effects. They have never wanted to be involved in any of my spiritual work, have never accepted any healing, didn't even want to hear about it, but both of them accepted and even asked for Yellow Bamboo healing yesterday. Which of course I was only to happy to provide.
Thank you once again look forward to developing further with you in the future.
Love and Blessings
Shirley ( Student )
Hi Dez,
We're all home safe and sound. Thank you so much for a fabulous weekend. We all fee just fantastic.
I certainly learnt a lot and gained in so many ways. I met my objectives to enhance my healing capabilities and most importantly the confidence in my protection.
I definately have unblocked that old third eye, may awareness was keen and sharp on the way home. We popped in to see a friend of Benita's on the way home for a cuppa. He is a nice chap, as we were talking I could feel messages coming through for him. We were telling him about the Yellow Bamboo, he appeared a little interested so I gave him your numbers and he's taken down the website.
During his casual conversation he spoke of his nan, who has recently passed, she lived in Stoke on Trent! Then he casually said that a medium gave him a message about a Martial Art which would give him his protection, to which we all shouted "yes that's what the Yellow Bamboo will do" And I said it's know coincidence that you also live in Stoke! So may be you'll get a call from him, his name is David. But as you can see, we were not in a hurry to get home!
When I got home I could really feel this horrible energy sitting on the sofa. It has always been there, but I could really feel it now, I was convinced now that it was not my imagination, so I YB'd it!!!! and all feels good now!
Can you post the Bali details on the web or emails please, I will be having a serious think about that, just wanna see how my practise is going for a week or so.
Well, I feel that I have found my spiritual family and it feels like things are just beginning!. I enjoyed your company and out bantering, So holey sock! I stop for breath to draw breath now! shall catch up with you soon.
All love, light and Big Kiss
Helen XXXXXX
Details of the next workshop are here for your interest

Writing desks depending on whether you purchase one from an office supply store a furniture store or an antique shop can range in price anywhere from one hundred dollars to thousands of dollars. Your choice depends on what type of personal statement you prefer to make.
Corner or Free Design - A corner desk is placed in the corner. Generally it is not placed in the middle of the room. The free design is the simple rectangle desk that you can place anywhere you wish. It gives you more flexibility. In future if you want to rearrange furniture and belongings in the room then you can place such a desk at a different place. The corner desk can be L-shaped or I-shaped design. If you choose a corner desk then it should have sufficient width. It is difficult to spread your legs further if a corner desk has a small width. It can put strain on your legs and body if occasionally you cannot stretch your feet in front on the floor.

The rules of the Sign Challenge competition require that our pieces be shipped in a two foot by two foot box and then be pulled out and displayed on top. Rather than drape the box I decided to make it a part of the display. To maximize the size of the centre piece it meant the walls of the box needed to be as thin as possible. Steel construction was the obvious answer and with our MultiCam CNC plasma handy the job was easy.Read more »

The 2016 Sign Challenge to be held at the International Sign Association Expo is coming fast! Peter's and my entry pieces have been ready since the new year but before we sent them off we had one more piece to build. It's the trophy that all of the entrants are hoping for. The design of the prize is meant to reflect the competition itself. The dimensional letters are stacked up inside a crate.Read more »
We also took some studio pictures of the Sign Odyssey piece for your enjoyment. I sure am looking forward to seeing fourteen of these crazy creations lined up in a row in Orlando at the ISA show in a few short months!Read more »
We've now taken proper pictures of Peter's Artistic Android. It is an amazing piece and when we take away the background clutter and add proper lighting the piece really comes alive in glorious detail. What is more amazing is that Peter used this piece to learn the ins and outs of EnRoute to create both the routing and plasma cutter. This was also the first time he operated both the MultiCam router and plasma cutter.Read more »
I had made it my goal to finish my Sign Challenge piece before the New Year. But like all goals the world conspires to keep you from them. I had made a good start early on, bringing the piece very close to finish. Then I got sidetracked with all manners of other projects.Read more »
Peter's Sign Challenge piece would have been almost impossible to accomplish without the new MultiCam plasma cutter. At the very east it made things ten times faster. The speed of the design in EnRoute and the precision of the cutting made fitting the pieces dead easy. The plasma cutter also allowed a complexity which wouldn't have been possible any other way. The top section of the box is removable and slides up into the box from the bottomRead more »


text: > > And can you confirm that David's updated rule fixes this issue? As I said in my other mail, there are many many reasons why things can fail that are unrelated to the udev rule. Just proclaiming "it doesn't work!" without investigating further and then scrapping a good udev rule is non-sense. For example, there are some issues with the kernel loop driver and partitioned devices, that's probably what Zeeshan is running into (support for partitioned loop devices is rather new). I don't know what kernel it's fixed in (if fixed at all). But it's easy to check if the expected block devices show up. Maybe Zeeshan didn't do that, I don't know. FWIW, the updated udev rule consistently works on my box; latest F18 packages, stock no customizations. That is, if the block devices do show up. David

04.10.2004 - German Crossover band SUCH A SURGE is currently working on the follow-up record of "Rotlicht" (2003) in the former EMI Studios in Köln-Ehrenfeld, Germany, together with producer Wolfgang Stach. On February 07th 2005, an EP shall be released, followed by the complete new album on April 04th. All in all, about 16 songs will be recorded, 8 of them are already finished. The band about the new material: "The record will be different from 'Rotlicht', because Lutz [Buch] has a complete other style as guitarist and songwriter than Dennis [Graef] who left the band last year. But don't worry, you'll be surprised but still be able to recognize us.
"There's no real feature on the album thus far, but we wrote a song together with our friend and colleague 'Bosse' from Braunschweig. The title of the song is 'Mein Tag' [='My Day'] and it may sound similar to older stuff like 'Silver Surge' or 'Koma2002'. Other new songs like 'Überfall' [='Raid'], 'O.K.' or 'Crash Test Dummie' will be hard tracks that you have to listen to very loud. In turn, 'Alles was mir fehlt' [='Everything I Miss'] is a slow, spheric and brute sounding song. So all in all, it's again a big and variegated mixture, made out of everything that comes to our minds."

Nology Introduces Zyxel NebulaFlex Hybrid Access Points
Nology Introduces Zyxel NebulaFlex Hybrid Access Points
Nology, the official distributor of Zyxel in South Africa, announced the availability of Zyxel's new NebulaFlex network management platform. "We're excited to be adding NebulaFlex to our existing Zyxel portfolio," said Grant Robertson, Product Manager at Nology. "NebulaFlex frees traditional standalone wireless Access Points (APs) to be managed in two modes, either cloud-managed or on-premises, giving businesses true flexibility in deployment while reducing extra hardware and software costs," explains Robertson. Currently supported by three Zyxel wireless access point models, NebulaFlex frees traditional standalone APs to be managed in two modes – either cloud-managed or on-premises, giving businesses true flexibility in deployment while reducing extra hardware and software costs.
The choice between cloud or on-premises - why not both?
NebulaFlex offers the best of both cloud-managed and on-premise networks
Take the leap with Zyxel Nebula
Created for businesses spread across multiple locations without proper network management expertise or resources, Zyxel Nebula is a 100% cloud-based networking and management solution which centrally and remotely manages all Nebula wired, wireless and security devices from a single pane of glass – the Nebula Control Center (NCC). Without any additional costs, users who own the hybrid access points will be able to reap the benefits of Zyxel Nebula Cloud, including 24/7 access to the Nebula dashboard, device/client monitoring and event log from anywhere in the world, and more. There's also the option to upgrade to Nebula Professional Pack license for granular, enterprise-class features.
"We wanted to make it even easier and simpler for everyone to enjoy the flexibility and scalability that cloud networking could bring to their businesses," commented Crowley Wu, Senior AVP of Zyxel Networking Business Unit. "With NebulaFlex, they don't have to worry about the upfront costs of replacing the entire network infrastructure; there's literally nothing to lose to try it out."
NebulaFlex is currently supported in the following Zyxel wireless access points: NWA1123-AC HD, NWA1123-AC PRO and NWA1123-ACv2 with firmware version 5.20 or above. The top of the range model, NWA1123-AC HD, is a Wave 2 Hybrid access point that supports a combined data rate of up to 1.6Gbps and introduces Multi User-MIMO (MU-MIMO) technology, the next evolution in Wi-Fi. This enables an access point to communicate with multiple devices simultaneously and decreases the time each device has to wait for a signal and dramatically speeds up your network."
The Nebula Mobile App offers a quick approach to network management, with which administrators can use the QR code scanner to register a large number of devices on Nebula Control Center all at once. Additionally, it provides an instant view of different sites for the IT staff to monitor the real-time network status.
- Built-in QR code scanner for adding hundreds of devices quickly
- Photo capturing for uploading and recording locations where devices are mounted
- Overview monitoring of APs, switches and gateways
Zyxel Communications
Focused on innovation and customer-centric technology and service, Zyxel Communications has been connecting people to the Internet for nearly 30 years. Our ability to adapt and innovate with networking technology places us at the forefront of the drive to create connectivity for telcos and service providers, businesses and home users.

AirTies Wi-Fi Mesh Kit – High-Speed Wi-Fi to every corner of your home
AirTies Wi-Fi Mesh Kit – High-Speed Wi-Fi to every corner of your home
With Internet access speeds getting faster and faster, the conventional in-home Wi-Fi architecture of a centralised router is becoming problematic. The weakening of wireless signals through walls and floors results in poor Wi-Fi performance and dead-spots. Unlike traditional Wi-Fi, which relies on a single router, the AirTies Home Wi-Fi Mesh system uses multiple Access Points (APs) placed around the home to create an intelligent and seamless Mesh network that ensures consistent high quality Wi-Fi performance to all corners of the home.
This intelligent mesh Wi-Fi system comes in the form of a pre-paired triple-pack of Air 4920 devices specifically designed for the residential market. The APs automatically establish wireless 5GHz backhaul links between one another to ensure that data transmission patterns are optimised throughout the home. Using super-fast wireless 802.11ac technology the AirTies Mesh system will keep the whole family connected no matter where they are in the home.
A single pack for the Air 4920 is also available and can be used as either an extension to an existing mesh (3+1), or a stand-alone access point.
A New Approach to in-Home Wi-Fi
Previous attempts at solving the in-home Wi-Fi problem include the use of Wi-Fi repeaters, but these tend to come with their own set of problems in terms of set-up and use. Using a repeater generally results in a fragmented Wi-Fi coverage where the client device (e.g. a smartphone, laptop, tablet, etc.) must decide where to connect. It is evident that these mobile smart devices do not make intelligent decisions when it comes to optimal connection. This often forces the home user to manually switch between Wi-Fi networks to ensure connection to the best-performing access point.
Until now, cabling remained the only feasible alternative to carry fast Internet speeds to every other room in the home. Typically, however, little attention is paid to data cabling routes when homes are designed and built, therefore the user is left with a choice of either poor and fragmented Wi-Fi using repeaters or drilling, chasing and general outfitting of unsightly data cables.
AirTies' In-Home Mesh Technology Explained
Founded in 2004, AirTies is the most widely deployed provider of Wi-Fi Mesh solutions to operators around the globe with an installed base of over 15 million devices worldwide. Support for Wireless Video Streaming Consumers love to watch Internet videos on their mobile devices at home, but hate to see them buffering at the most exciting parts. Streaming to moving wireless devices is even more challenging. The AirTies system prioritises video signals over other Internet traffic to ensure optimal performance. This enables consumers to connect their wired or wireless Set-Top-Box and stream HD or UHD content with no cabling required. Intelligent Client and Band Steering The intelligent AirTies 4920 dual-band mesh consistently analyses the location, status and performance of each of the Wi-Fi clients and actively hands-off the client to a better positioned AP ensuring maximum performance. The mesh system also learns the Wi-Fi capabilities of each individual client allowing for the optimisation of band utilisation. If a dual-band capable device is settling for a connection on the slower 2.4GHz band, the system automatically steers this client to the 5GHz band not only improving the throughput performance of that particular device, but also alleviating congestion on the 2.4GHz band, boosting the performance of legacy single-band devices.
Easy Installation and Expansion
Installation and set-up is a breeze for consumers and does not require a technician. Setup is managed by a user-friendly mobile application (iOS/Android) that also sports some excellent management features like an in-home network sitemap, connected client list, mesh-link health and guest access control. In addition, it facilitates a single Wi-Fi network with one name and one password for the entire home.
Each AirTies 4920 AP has two Gigabit Ethernet ports. These Ethernet ports can be used to connect to a wired client device like a NAS or media streamer, or if you already have a LAN network in place, it can also be used for backhaul data transmissions.
Best of all is the price, which is very competitive for a triple-pack mesh system.

Axiros – Nology Improves Quality of Experience for SA Service Providers
Axiros – Nology Improves Quality of Experience for SA Service Providers
Nology, South Africa's leader in Device Management and Provisioning solutions for Service Providers and Telco's have recently expanded their Axiros solution portfolio to include Axtract - a powerful data analytics and Quality of Experience (QoE) module.
Axiros offers the world's most complete CPE vendor agnostic Device Management Solutions and Nology is the exclusive distributor and systems integrator for Axiros in South Africa.
South Africa's ISP landscape has become fiercely competitive in recent years, particularly in the Fibre to the Home market. With margins coming under ever increasing pressure, it has become essential for service providers to reduce operational costs and maximize efficiency.
Riaan Leuschner, Nology's Sales Director says: "The Axiros platform is all about providing a competitive advantage to our Service Provider and Reseller partners. We work closely with these partners, so we understand the challenges they are facing and exactly how competitive the market is for them. By dramatically streamlining their CPE provisioning, logistics and support operations, we have successfully helped these customers to improve their efficiency and margins."
Axtract QoE aims to deliver a complete picture of the total customer experience to the Service Provider by adding the ability to measure the Quality of Experience of one individual customer or across an entire population of devices or customers at any point in time or historically.
Nology's Device Management Business Unit Manager Adriaan Liebenberg says "We are excited by the new dimension that QoE brings to the market. Nology has been offering zero-touch provisioning, monitoring, and support tools for IP phones and routers for over 10 years now and adding QoE monitoring and analytics to allow our partners to have full insight into their customers' experience is going to add massive value and benefit to them."
Traditionally, DMS systems have been extremely expensive to acquire and implement, putting it in reach of only the largest service providers.
"Our Axiros Platform as a Service model is a first in the country and has been met with huge success. By dramatically reducing the barrier to entry and removing the upfront costs, we have been able to onboard partners to whom the system would previously have been beyond their reach. We are proud to say that today we are approaching half a million devices being actively managed by our systems," Leuschner adds.
Visit Nology at this year's MyBroadband annual conference to check out their new Axtract provisioning service and other exciting new products.

By Louis Charbonneau
UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - The U.N. Security Council renewed a U.N. peacekeeping mission in the disputed North African territory of Western Sahara for another year on Tuesday, and urged all sides to respect human rights, but it did not call for the United Nations to monitor abuses as rights groups advocate.
Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, like the advocacy groups, has called for the U.N. mission, known as MINURSO, to monitor and report on human rights abuses in the territory, but Morocco, backed by France, vehemently rejects the idea.
Morocco took control of most of the territory in 1975 when colonial power Spain withdrew, prompting the Polisario Front independence movement to wage a guerrilla war that lasted until 1991, when the U.N. brokered a cease-fire and sent in the MINURSO peacekeepers.
Polisario now runs refugee camps at Tindouf in Algeria.
Tuesday's unanimously adopted resolution had the U.N. Security Council "stressing the importance of improving the human rights situation in Western Sahara and the Tindouf camps, and encouraging the parties to work with the international community to develop and implement independent and credible measures to ensure full respect for human rights."
Earlier this month, Ban renewed his appeals for sustained human rights monitoring in Western Sahara and warned against unfair exploitation of the region's natural resources. The U.S.-drafted resolution, which council diplomats said was painstakingly negotiated with Morocco, did not heed Ban's appeal.
New York-based Human Rights Watch, an advocacy group, also sent a letter to the Security Council, urging the 15-nation body to "extend (MINURSO's) mandate to incorporate human rights monitoring in Western Sahara and in the Polisario Front-run refugee camps near Tindouf, Algeria.
The 1991 ceasefire settlement was brokered by the United Nations with the understanding that a referendum would be held on the territory's fate.
But the referendum, which MINURSO was deployed to help organize, never took place, and attempts to reach a lasting political deal have foundered.
Morocco has resisted the idea of U.N. peacekeepers reporting on rights abuses in Western Sahara, and Paris has long supported Rabat's position due to historical and business relations.
French officials insist that they would have no problem with U.N. rights monitoring but insisted that Morocco would demand an immediate withdrawal of MINURSO if it was ever given that role.
The renewal of the mandate of the peacekeeping mission marks an annual battle in the Security Council between France, which defends Morocco's position, and a number of African nations and the Polisario Front. Algeria is a strong supporter of the Polisario.
Rabat wants Western Sahara to be an autonomous part of Morocco. Polisario instead wants to hold the long-promised referendum among ethnic Sahrawis that would include the option of independence. There is no agreement between Morocco and Polisario on who should participate in any referendum.
