Au fait, pronounced (oh fey), is borrowed from French. It literally means to the point or to the fact. In English we used it to say that someone has the whole picture, complete knowledge of something, or is socially correct. Grammatically it works as an adjective.
In French it's pronounced "oh fet."
No. Oh fey is correct. In French you do not pronounce the last letter with a few exceptions. This is not an exception.
You are wrong. Ask a French person.
Thanks. I asked my French friends who live in Normandy and they told me I am correct.
If one were to say 'en fait' the t is usually pronounced.
You need to learn French before you start talking about it. Source: I speak French.
You are completely and utterly wrong.

Goblins play Naughty Mind Tricks in our heads.
How we engage with them is a key difference between our thriving and striving. If we tame the Goblins, we are freed to reach our higher levels.
Love Letters to Lycra reborn
I'll tell you a story.
I cranked up to week TWO of my new lycra wrapped running regime this week; the lycra holds up my lazy glutes while my brain tries to locate them. This is the all new Love Letters to Lycra; running version.
Enter Supercoach, my husband, rock and running buddy, committed to helping me run like the wind, what could go wrong? Uh oh, I hadn't banked on the power of Goblins and their Naughty Mind Tricks.
Today we decided to tackle Northbridge, suburb of hills. There's one primary challenge right here folks, my husband is well known in cycling circles for his hill climbing guts and glutes. Cue immediate angst and emerge 'The Grump,' who surfaces reliably when I feel stressed or pushed beyond my limits. Goblins and Naughty Mind Tricks were off and running and we hadn't even left the house. This was shaping up to be like spousal driving lessons – not conducive to rosy marital relations.
Off we trotted, and began bickering within three minutes. "Take more steps" he calls, "That doesn't work," I snap, "lift up your legs to engage your glutes," so I picture lifting my feet off the ground. It is futile, the synapses are neural spaghetti. I swear; Grump was well into her stride now, I hadn't planned to bring her out. Damn those Goblins and their Naughty Mind Tricks.
It's really quite staggering just how much Naughty Mind Trickery emerges under stress, and boy did I turn tricks of the Naughty kind when the going got tough today, around hill number four. Inside my head the goblins were partying hard, I grouched, grumped, harrumphed and moaned under my breath until about halfway up the hill. Cursed Supercoach, cursed myself and began to morph into someone I do not choose to be. Naughty Mind Tricks.
Same Same
This time though, something happened about half way up. I decided not to engage with the pesky goblins and their Naughty Mind Tricks, instead pictured them as just goblins, doing their thing while I watched from the side.
Then it struck me, as I huffed and puffed further up the hill, there's a striking parallel between the Naughty Mind Tricks when the body is under physical stress like today's hill run, or the mountain bike meltdown of last week, and the Naughty Mind Tricks which turn up in other life situations.
Let's go for a wander into Naughty Mind Tricks with an analogy, see if they sound familiar to you too. Ready?
Imagine you're sitting on a bench in the corner of a basketball court full of animated children (goblins), running round the court at full pace, all talking at once. It probably sounds like a standard Saturday afternoon to many of you, right?
You're invisible to them, removed from their worlds, yet intrinsically connected by imaginary golden threads to their every sentiment. Each time they speak, you feel empathy with their emotions whether good and bad. Yes it sounds just like parenting and this is itself, notable. The voices say this:
"My knee hurts, my ankle hurts, my hip hurts, oh there's my stomach cramp, my chest is tight, I'm scared, what if I really hurt myself, push through the pain, I can't do this, you've got this, when is this bloody lap ever going to come to an end, there's another two k.m. to go, I can't do it, shut up, I can't, you can, you're weak, you must do this, it will feel good at the end, I'm going to die, don't be pathetic, chill man, Oh my god, it's so like haaaaaaaard….." and so it goes on.
Your boundaries are crumbling, your empathy wants to step in and help them, make it easy for them……meanwhile back on your hill, you're slowing to a walk and stopping. You. Give. In. Your self belief stops and so do you. You've given in to goblins, their Naughty Mind Tricks have worked.
Your moment of brilliant epiphany
But, pause, skip back to the point before you stopped. Suddenly in a moment of brilliant epiphany, you remember the golden threads connecting you to the goblins are imaginary, and incredibly whilst it's interesting to observe their social experiment, it's actually becoming a bit tiresome and you'd quite like to quietly nick off for a coffee and leave them behind.
Do it.
You don't actually have to engage with the goblins at all. Empathy can be made from a distance with curiosity and compassion, allowing you to quietly return to your business of running or cycling (or coffee).
We do not have to engage with every negative thought and doubt we have. They are goblins, playing Naughty Mind Tricks.
Make sense?
So back on the hill this morning, sucking the air through my nose and still determinedly trying to engage my wobbly glutes so my calves could stop doing all the work, I suddenly realised with absolute clarity, the remarkable parallel between sport and life.
The higher the stress levels climb, the louder goblins and their Naughty Mind Tricks become. Yet, if we recognise them for what they are, and have compassion for their presence we are released to carry ourselves forward. We strive, yet slowly begin to thrive
There will be another real or metaphorical hill climb around the corner, there is nothing surer for that is nature of life, but guess what, next time we'll be a fraction fitter and it gets easier.
If you ignore them, goblins will keep chasing you with Naughty Mind Tricks and they will drag you backwards until you LISTEN! Kind of like kids really.
It's true, I almost vomited when I reached the cafe for my morning cappuccino, but hell as I write it's six hours later and I still feel good. Supercoach hadn't even broken a sweat. Dammit. (Thank you goblin, that's enough).
You've got this. We've got this. Truly. Even with Goblins and their Naughty Mind Tricks.

European shares dip but don't sink before Greece summit
By Alistair Smout and Liisa Tuhkanen
LONDON, July 7 (Reuters) - European shares fell on Tuesday before a euro zone summit billed as the last chance for Athens to cut a rescue deal, but there was no sign of investor panic two days after Greek voters rejected conditions for a new bailout.
The pan-European FTSEurofirst 300 was down 0.3 percent by 1131 GMT, while the euro zone Euro STOXX 50 fell 0.7 percent, adding to Monday's 2.2 percent drop.
Coutts Global Equity Strategist James Butterfill said investors seemed to be betting on the readiness of the European Central Bank to smooth over any volatility resulting from the Greek crisis.
"We're surprised with how little markets have sold off following the referendum, but there seems to be faith in the 'Draghi put', and peripheral markets have decoupled from Greece," Butterfill said.
"Markets may well tread water until we get some sort of decision from the European summit."
France and Germany told Greece on Monday to come up with serious proposals to restart financial aid talks, while the ECB kept a tight grip on funding to Greek banks.
Strategists at BNP Paribas said Sunday's referendum results did not mean Greece had to quit the euro zone, but did increase the chances it will leave to 70 percent.
"In light of the referendum, the likelihood of the Greek government acceding to creditors' demands has diminished," they said in a note.
Among gainers, ProSiebenSat1 added 0.5 percent after sources said talks over a merger with German publishing house Axel Springer had restarted.
Axel Springer - which called speculation that its majority owner, Friede Springer, might relinquish control "unfounded" - rose 4.3 percent.
Evonik gained 2.5 percent and SAP edged 0.8 percent higher after UBS lifted its target price for both stocks.
Technip sank 8.8 percent to its lowest level since January after the oil industry engineering and construction group announced a restructuring programme, booking a 650 million-euro ($719 million) charge and cutting 6,000 jobs.
Rolls-Royce dropped 4.9 percent, following a 6.3 percent loss on Monday, as brokers downgraded the stock after a third profit warning in nine months.

2017 Ssangyong Rexton
Perhaps one of the most obscure debuts of the Paris Motor Show is the 2017 Ssangyong Rexton, a midsize SUV from a small Korean manufacturer. The vehicle it replaces was a previous generation of the Mercedes-Benz ML, with which Ssangyong had a licensing relationship to build that and an E-Class sedan primarily for consumption on the Korean domestic market.
Now that Ssangyong has been acquired by Mahindra, an Indian conglomerate best known for exporting tractors to the U.S., this niche manufacturer should be noticed for the global ambitions of its parent. In other words, if Ssangyong is looking to grow, the U.S. market is a likely candidate and what better way to enter than through the hot SUV segment.
Offered in 2- and 3-row trim levels, the Rexton will offer seating for up to 7 passengers. While many of the vehicles in its class are relying on unit body construction, the Rexton remains on a more truck-based body-on-frame approach. While it's expected to be offered mainly with a 2.2-liter diesel engine making 179 horsepower and mated to a 7-speed transmission, it's also expected to have a newer 2.0-liter direct injection turbocharged gas engine. A new gasoline engine mated to an 8-speed automatic is expected after the vehicle is launched.

Earth's Curvature Formula
May 27, 2016 | Flat Earth ||
Below is the supposed formula to calculate the curvature of the earth. Problem is, consistent curvature of any kind has NEVER been found on the earth.
Mysterious, huh?
In fact, recently a research team did a study that showed the state of Kansas is literally flatter than a pancake. Their concluding remarks were: "Simply put, our results show that Kansas is considerably flatter than a pancake."
How is that possible if the earth were indeed spherical in shape?
Exactly – it's not. Earth is flat.

Once Upon A Time Rewatch: Episodes 1.6 and 1.7
The interesting thing about rewatching The Shepherd is knowing that the James that gets killed isn't the Charming we all know is you can tell he isn't Charming. There's some very slight differences that show he's nothing like Charming. And seeing Charming as The Shepherd you can see the person he is as David is who he was as The Shepherd. He thought he could have true love even though because the farm was in financial trouble he really needed to marry for money. And in SB he thought he could have MM even though he was married to Kathryn.
David Nolan is who Charming would be if Rump hadn't interfered in the course of his life and got him to agree to pretend to be Prince James. So it isn't the curse that made David Nolan it was who he really is. It was Rump getting him to impersonate his brother and slaying the dragon that turned him into Charming.
There was also something I didn't notice, which proves you've got to keep a sharp eye and ear in the scenes, because they don't just put stuff in there for the fun of it. King Midas mentioned what happened to Frederick and I never realized his name was mentioned before we met him. It's like Ruby and the wolf figurine. All the little things actually mean something.
One thing that bothered me the first time I watched The Shepherd is I thought Regina directed David to Gold's shop on purpose so he'd do something to David to stop him from getting together with Mary-Margaret. Rewatching the episode I still feel the same way. I know Gold isn't supposed to have any magic, but how do you explain David getting his memory back when he looked at the windmill?
My understanding is that all these people have been stuck in time for the last 28 years. That means David has been in a coma for 28 years, just like for the last 28 years Ashley has been pregnant. Can you imagine being pregnant for 28 years? I don't even want to think about it. But that said David had no memories to remember his life with Kathryn. He had no life. It was all a fiction Regina put in Kathryn's head. So how could David looking at the windmill remember memories he never really lived?
And what about Geppetto's parents being in Gold's shop? And Belle's teacup. That stuff should have stayed in Fairy Tale Land. How did it end in Gold's shop where it shouldn't have been? It hints to the fact Gold does possess some kind of magic. Like the poisoned apple that was stuck back in Fairy Tale Land, all those items should have been stuck back there, too.
In The Huntsmen episode, Graham didn't start remembering his past until he kissed Emma. And when Emma kissed Henry some magic traveled through the town restoring everyone's memory. The strange thing is there was a similar affect when Charming kissed Snow awake. The question is what affect did it cause throughout the kingdom back then? The situations were similar, magic was seen passing through Fairy Tale Land and Storybrooke. While we know what Emma's kiss passed through Storybrooke [making everyone recover their memories], just what did Snow and Charming's kiss make happen throughout the land?
It was like Emma's kiss caused everyone in Storybrooke to come awake to the truth of who they really were. It's what I think her power is; I don't think she ever had the power to end the curse. They only have Rump's word that's true and he could have very easily lied about the entire thing. Yes, Emma helped a few Storybrooke residents get their happy endings, but their happy endings were ruined long before the curse happened.
Hansel and Gretel could find their father before the curse happened because they turned down Regina's offer to live with her and she paid them back by making sure they couldn't find their father. Grumpy's happy ending was ruined by The Blue Fairy. Ella's happy ending was ruined when she double-crossed Rump. The only one who had their happy ending ruined by the curse was Snow and Charming.
The fact that Emma gave Gold the vial that helped him to stop time in Storybrooke again and to bring magic to the town, seems to have reinforced the curse.
One thing that wasn't explained was how could the wolf be in town from Fairy Tale Land. When Graham touched him, he also helped him to remember. And you can't say Graham imagined it because Emma saw the wolf, too. Isn't this the same wolf that caused Emma's accident in the first episode when she was going to leave Storybrooke? So just who is this wolf? How is he in Storybrooke when there's not supposed to be any wolves in Storybrooke?
One thing I couldn't help thinking when I saw Graham and Ruby together was if Graham had lived and learned Ruby's secret, with his affinity for wolves, he could have been Ruby's true love.
And having seen The Stable Boy the scene where Regina crushed Graham's heart seems almost parallel to what Cora did to Daniel when she learned he and Regina were going to run off together.
One last thing. I couldn't help but wonder if Snow didn't purposely write that letter, hoping Graham would read it and wouldn't go through with killing her. Her escaping then sitting down and writing that letter just doesn't seem believable. You're telling me she couldn't hide instead of just sitting out in the open where Graham could easily find her? It just makes you wonder.

Al Sharpton wants to have it both ways: he wants to be both a journalist and an activist. And MSNBC's President Phil Griffin apparently wants that, too. Sharpton's MSNBC show, PoliticsNation, featured him interviewing Trayvon Martin's father. "We want you to know, Mr. Martin that you're not alone," said Sharpton, "and I don't believe in drive-by activism, and we will be there until it's resolved …"
No surprise there. Has Sharpton ever passed up an opportunity for rabble-rousing? Last Thursday night, Sharpton spoke at a rally in Sanford, Florida, Martin's home town, and said, "We are tired of going to jail for nothing and others going home for something. Zimmerman should have been arrested that night … you cannot defend yourself against a pack of Skittles and iced tea. Don't talk to us like we're stupid! Don't talk to us like we're ignorant! We love our children like you love yours. Lock him up!"
The obvious conflict of interest between activism and journalism bothered Howard Kurtz of CNN, who asserted, "It seems to me MSNBC can say, 'Okay, this is such an important case you can go and be an activist and you won't do your show on the subject. Or you can do your show on the subject but don't be standing with the parents at the rally and accompanying them to the Justice Department.'"
MSNBC could say that, but it won't. They knew Sharpton's history when they hired him: fanning the flames of hatred in the Tawana Bradley affair by staging events and arranging TV appearances after she falsely claimed to have been raped and abducted by white men; raising the specter of racism against the Duke lacrosse team falsely charged with raping a black stripper; and most dangerously, inciting the Crown Heights riots with his repeated calls of "No justice, no peace!"
According to the Society of Professional Journalists Code of Ethics, a journalist should:
- Distinguish between advocacy and news reporting. Analysis and commentary should be labeled and not misrepresent fact or context
- Avoid conflicts of interest, real or perceived.
- Remain free of associations and activities that may compromise integrity or damage credibility.
Sharpton is not a journalist, and MSNBC knows it. But considering their history of using leftist political hacks as reporters (Keith Olbermann, Chris Matthews, Ed Schultz), is anyone really surprised that Al Sharpton is now their frontline journalist on Trayvon Martin?

After the Cuban Revolution, Miami became home to approximately 500,000 Cuban citizens. These citizens opened businesses and formed communities which led to more Cubans coming to the United States for economic reasons. These people enjoy authentic Cuban recipes that have been handed down for generations. Visitors to Miami are pleasantly surprised when they taste real Cuban food for the first time. Of course, there are many Cuban restaurants, so we have selected a few of our favorites for your consideration.
Havana 1950
Havana 1950 serves fantastic Cuban food with the flare of the 1950's era. The fully bilingual menus make it easy to order your favorites. They serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner and have a good selection of wine, (fresh squeezed) juices, and mixed drinks. You will have no problem imagining how Havana was during this time period. Before you leave, try the dessert. It is incredible.
Larios On The Beach
This is an upper-scale, very trendy restaurant. You will find people of all ages dine here. However, if you venture to Larios on a weekend, you may be taken aback by the crowds. This ultra-modern restaurant is a favorite for every age group, as evident by the elbow-to-elbow crowd. If you go earlier in the week, you will enjoy a less crowded dining room. Prices are a little more than other traditional Cuban restaurants, but the place is a bit nicer than most.
Islas Canarias
The owners of Islas Canarias and now their children have been dishing up some of the best Cuban and Spanish food in the city since 1977. You will receive generous portions and only the most authentic dishes with the finest ingredients are allowed. They also feature sinfully good desserts, fresh, green salads, and have a wide selection of wine and other drinks.
Havana Harry's
For the longest time, locals tried to keep this gem to themselves. A good mix of Cuban foods with American twists is what is on the menu. This is a casual and comfortable place where you can get Cuban dishes like black beans and fried pork. They have plenty of sandwiches and less fattening options. Expect a lunch and dinner crowd, but this place is worth the wait.
Exquisito Restaurant
This place is small. It seats about 70 people. But, it has been voted The Best Cuban Restaurant in Miami for a reason. Go with pork chunks, tamales, or come early for an incredible breakfast. If it is authentic and it is good, they serve it.
There are so many Cuban and Cuban-American restaurants in Miami that you probably could never try them all. If you ask anyone who lives in Miami, they will have their own favorite. It is well worth taking a little time to research the best places to eat.
Once you have eaten Cuban food in Miami, you will never be satisfied with less, unless of course, you went to Cuba. If you don't know what a dish is, the menu usually explains. But, it is worth bridging the language barrier to enjoy this food. This is the flavor of Miami!

The general rate of VAT on the purchase of a new property is Spain is currently 10% of the purchase price, 4% in the case of social housing, and is one of the lowest in Europe. During 2012, the overall rate was reduced for a short while to just 4% as a government incentive to increase property sales.
Rates in other European countries vary from as low as 3% in Luxembourg, 5% in Rumania, and as high as 25% in Denmark or Sweden. However, recent news from Brussels is suggesting that the Spanish government should increase the rate to 13% or even the maximum rate of 21% in Spain.
As Spain slowly starts to recover from the recession and in particular from a vastly depleted property market, this is surely the last thing they need right now as property sales in Spain have started to recover with an increase in interest from foreign buyers. The domestic market is the most effected, despite prices coming down in some areas in Spain by as much as 50%, so an increase in the rate of VAT would destroy any chances of Spaniards wishing to climb the property ladder.
Whilst the price of property in Spain has reduced significantly in recent years, and if the government was to follow suggestions from Brussels, then more reason for buyers not to wait any longer and take advantage of the low prices currently available as most likely, they won't drop much further. In fact in some coastal areas, there are signs of property prices actually increasing.
- New rates of VAT in Spain to take effect as from 1st September 2012
- Legal costs and taxes associated with a property purchase in Spain

KataKata Brixton restaurant in partnership with LionHeart In The Community (LITC), a local NGO in Brixton, is celebrating the second edition of the 'Healthy Living Brixton" Special Offer on Fresh Juices £2.
Being a part of such a complex and diverse community we would like your help to maintain a healthy Brixton and also promote Healthy living internationally.
As a local restaurant, healthy eating has always been an important part of Katakata's ethos. KataKata is a vegan/vegetarian restaurant they offer a variety of healthy fresh food and pressed juices.
We are encouraging young people to abandon the fast food culture in our community whilst educating them on the benefits of a healthy lifestyle.
Last year the Mayor of London Sadiq Khan, started an initiative that was based around fast food takeaways in the capital, encouraging them to make healthier food, the Mayor of London managed to sign up over 500 fast food takeaways and we are supporting that initiative. There are up to 40 fast food takeaways within half a mile of schools in some London boroughs. Just one portion of chips can contain 69g of fat, the total recommended amount of fat to be consumed in a day, according to the latest research. There are currently no laws to prevent new takeaway restaurants from opening, so the Mayor is trying to change the food that they sell.
Kataka is also supporting LITC's initiative in Africa, Cameroon - Wum. EASI – Entrepreneurship, Education, Sports and Information Technology training for young people in remote areas. The programme encourages young people, particularly young girls to be Educated on Healthy living lifestyles, Coding, Entrepreneurship and self-sustainability. All donations Will go to EASI programme.
To find out more about our programmes please go to EASI and Katakata.
You can contribute to these efforts by visiting the restaurant, Donating, Volunteering, Spreading the word and Living Healthy.

Here is one of the members of the garden team. The lima beans, bamboo trellis, and the pipinola vines provided the habitat and safe eco system where this little guy could grow. He is nearly full grown now after his first year in the garden. He was returned back to his favorite spot where he could continue to watch over me and the snails from his favorite place up high on the bamboo.

Pieces of Me: Talking Backwards
I've decided to dedicate a category of my blog to interests, talents, and aspects of my personality that don't fit neatly into my other categories. These will often, but not always, be short posts. Little "pieces of me" that make up the whole and that I think (or hope!) will be of interest to others.
First up, a useless but semi-bragable talent of mine. I can talk backwards! I've come across a couple other people who can talk backwards as well, but not the same as I do. I don't "read" the words backwards in my head and pronounce them as if they were spelled that way, I say entire strings of words phonetically backwards so that they will sound like the original words if recorded and played in reverse.
Here's an video that I made a year ago demonstrating (with the aid of the "ireverse pro" app on my phone) I decided to make a new one. 🙂

Many people who attend evangelical churches in America are familiar with the music of "Jesus Culture," from the Sacramento, Calif., area. Last month, one of their live albums was the No. 1 album on iTunes, above Adele, Justin Bieber, and Coldplay. See if you recognize any of these lyrics from earlier songs:
So I shout out Your name, from the rooftops I proclaim
That I am Yours, I am Yours
All that I am, I place into Your loving hands
And I am Yours, I am Yours
On and on and on and on it goes
It overwhelms and satisfies my soul
And I never, ever, have to be afraid
One thing remains
Holy Spirit You are welcome here,
Come flood this place and fill the atmosphere.
Your glory God is what our hearts long for,
To be overcome by Your presence, Lord.
You stay the same through the ages
Your love never changes
There may be pain in the night, but joy comes in the morning
And when the oceans rage
I don't have to be afraid
Because I know that You love me
OK, you get the point. Jesus Culture is the worship movement centered at Bethel Church, pastored by Bill Johnson, in Sacramento. Johnson and his church are no strangers to criticism and controversy. In fact, the church was recently the cover story of the April 2016 issue of Christianity Today.
I'm sure I am not alone as a pastor who has been asked, "What do you think of Bill Johnson and Bethel?" In fact, Sam Storms wrote an article by that very name just this week, in which he posts a response by a British pastor in Eastbourne, U.K. As has often been the case, the British Charismatics have some of the most well-balanced perspectives on these matters.
Sam Storms is on the Board of Directors of both Desiring God and Bethlehem College & Seminary, and also serves as a member of the Council of The Gospel Coalition.
I join Sam in a hearty endorsement of this response from across the Atlantic: "On Babies and Bethelwater."

- Marble Mountains: Located 12 kilometers westwards from the city, this place is one of the most charming tourist attractions in Danang.

Amid all the vague talk and some pie-in-the-sky proposals for a "green" economy, here's something real that will move California toward that goal, more slowly perhaps, but surely.
As of last week, Placer County property owners could begin applying for loans to make their homes or businesses more energy efficient. While the focus has been on solar panels, program officials are encouraging steps such as weatherproofing windows or buying more efficient hot water heaters first, saying that it doesn't make sense to install solar panels on an otherwise energy-wasting house.
The loans are expected to average $25,000 to $30,000, with the payments added to property tax bills. Plus, much of the work will go to local contractors and companies.
While Placer is leading the way locally, others will soon be following to capitalize on Assembly Bill 811, the 2008 law allowing cities and counties to make property tax loans to help homeowners with the upfront costs of energy and water conservation improvements.
Next month, the California Energy Commission plans to award $30.5 million in federal stimulus money to support similar programs. The biggest chunk, $16.5 million, will go to Sacramento County, the lead agency for a project covering 13 counties and 12 million people. By fall, the commission says, three-fourths of state residents will live in areas with such programs.

Digital River Joins Mobile Card-Acceptance Fray with Beanstream
Aug. 29, 2013
E-commerce technology provider Digital River today launched a mobile POS system that enables merchants to accept card payments by swiping them on a mobile device. The Minneapolis-based company is the latest to enter the mobile card acceptance space pioneered several years ago by San Francisco startup Square. The company said its Beanstream Mobile service, which—like Square and a host of others—comprises an encrypted card reader and free downloadable mobile app, differentiates itself with the ability to process transactions in multiple currencies.
"Existing mobile payment solutions have fallen short for merchants with multi-currency operations, in-store and online sales, and inventories," said Souheil Badran, senior vice president and general manager for global payments and commerce at Digital River. "Now, merchants will be able to unify their payment channels with one device and accept credit card mobile payments in 140 currencies through an integration with Digital River World Payments' international bank connections."
Beanstream matched Square's pricing on swiped transactions (a flat 2.75 percent per transaction), but the Digital River offering differs from Square on keyed-in, card-not-present transactions (2.9 percent plus $.30 per transaction for Beanstream vs. 3.5 percent plus $.15 per transaction for Square).

With that said though, it would still be a pretty great way for the company to increase awareness about Apple Pay and get more people to start using it in ways that actually benefit the Cupertino giant. Now, Recode has reported that the tech giant is resurrecting the dialogue about introducing a service that would give competitors like Venmo a run for their money.
Do you already use a money-transfer service like Venmo or Square Cash? Right now, Apple Pay supports online and in-app payments and in-person contactless payments, but the app only lets users send money to merchants. The card could also be added to your Apple Pay wallet to pay for goods at stores and on websites. Rumor has it that Apple recently held meetings with other payment industry companies.
Even with the potential lucrative benefits, Apple again might step back from a launch, as some within the company are cautioning that there hasn't been anything set in stone yet.
These services have typically been money losers for the new entrants in the space, but are seen as the gateway to the next generation of payment and personal finance services.
The company is also allegedly looking into offering its own pre-paid debit cards, though the Recode report suggests Apple could face pushback from the banks it partners with to make the rest of Apple Pay work. The service has an uphill battle in physical stores because it is not accepted everywhere and is not widely viewed as a significant upgrade over physical cards. At that time, Apple was said to be working with several US -based banks about the service, but nothing came of the talks.
It looks like Apple Pay is getting a major upgrade this year.
Apple Pay was first announced at the iPhone 6 launch event in September 2014.
Furthermore, this would provide Apple with the opportunity to tie its new service with Apple Pay, which reportedly is producing unsatisfactory results for the past two and a half years. Most of those surveyed used the service sparingly.
Apple wants a piece of Venmo's market. Person-to-person payment services, however, have become incredibly popular, especially amongst millennials.
The greatest wide receiver in Redskins history, Monk also goes down as one of the greatest in football history. Kratch also mentions that the Giants only had "limited interaction" with Robinson during the draft process.
More recently, the site was used in the opening scene of the 1973 horror film, The Exorcist . Hatra flourished during the first and second centuries as a religious and trading center.
Two dates have been confirmed, including a slot in Blackpool at Livewire Festival on August 27th. Will Smith and DJ Jazzy Jeff are officially reuniting, and it's all going down very soon.
Near normal temperatures returned to the state, and the entire state got rain, with some counties collecting an inch or more. Drier and warmer weather over the weekend did allow some producers into their fields to plant corn and oats.
On Monday, Kelly Sotherton was on the brink of getting another Olympic medal due to Tatyana Chernova's drugs cheat. It's a shame Kelly didn't get her moment on the podium, but lovely to see her awarded the medals she deserves.
Because the pitch hit Machado's bat, it was ruled a foul ball so he had to come back to the batters box and finish his at-bat. We won't have to wait long to see where all this is going, as Baltimore will be at Fenway for a four-game series next week.
Bambawale also made a fresh request for consular access to Jadhav, which, according to the Pakistani media, has been turned down. PTI reported Pakistan on Monday rejected India's assertion that it is violating a bilateral pact by not giving access to Jadhav.
He'll have his work cut out for him, with a hot new racer Jackson Storm (Armie Hammer), getting all the attention. A new trailer has dropped, and it promises some deep character study in a movie about talking cars.
However, there is another one which Android phone users will most likely use very much in the near future: the Google Assistant. This involves teaching Amazon products how to learn more about its customers, so it can respond to them as if they were human.
Allowing for up to 12-players to compete, matches in each mode can become chaotic, exciting, and be an absolute thrill. Some of these modes are very familiar, such as the standard Balloon Battle that we've always played in Battle Mode.

TPS Foundation Grants Awarded
It was an exciting day as seven Topeka Public Schools teachers were surprised with shiny, red balloons and large checks when the Topeka Public Schools Foundation Grant Patrol made their rounds on October 23rd. The foundation's board members visited Whitson Elementary, McClure Elementary, and Landon Middle School to award grant money to 29 TPS teachers whose grant applications received full or partial funding. Other recipients received notice of their awards by e-mail.The 2013-2014 TPS Foundation annual Educational Grant Awards distribution to TPS totaled $39,835.20.The money will be used in a variety of ways, from purchasing books, musical instruments and electronics to assisting students with the cost of the Advanced Placement and GED tests. Students from pre-schools, elementary, middle, and high schools, alternative schools, and adult education centers will benefit from the funds. Pamela Johnson-Betts, executive director of the Topeka Public Schools Foundation, said "The grant allocations support educator ideas and invigorate them, which is so important because educators are the critical source for engaging students and providing enrichment." The foundation's board members, Ryan Hellmer, Cheyenne Manspeaker, Kim Minson, Erin Rodriguez, and Aaron Mays joined Johnson-Betts in distributing the grants.

The goals of this homework are to:
Please keep track of how much time, in terms of number of hours, it takes you to solve each exercise, as we will ask you to provide us with this information.
The total number of points for this homework is 115. Of these, 15 are bonus points that can be counted toward future milestones where you do less well.
Please be mindful of the Collaboration Policy. If you have any questions regarding the assignment requirements, ask on the discussion group. If you have any doubts about whether it's appropriate to ask something, check with the course staff. You are allowed to use Web search to find answers to questions.
The deadline for this homework is November 5, 2010, at 23:59. Any assignments (or parts thereof) handed in late will not be considered.
In this assignment, we continue building parts of the Campus Buddy application. We first need to improve the functionality offered by the graph framework developed in Homework #2. We will then start working on modules concerning the schedule of the public transportation to the EPFL, and also on a recommendation system for EPFL courses.
The project skeleton can be downloaded here. The code is organized as follows:
Exercise 1 (25 points)
In this exercise, we are extending the planar graph functionality from the second homework, in order to support multiple levels. The EPFL plan offers the possibility of showing the plan of each level in a building, so we also need to augment our graph representation of the campus with level information.
Exercise 2 (25 points + 5 bonus points)
The previous exercise solved an important task for us: now we can find out, from wherever we are in the campus, how much time it will take us to reach a certain point in the campus -- in particular, the EPFL metro station. We are now concerned with the schedule of the metro, to see what's the next metro we can catch, and thus we switch to the epfl.sweng.timetable package.
The basic abstraction we're using here is to encompass the metro events in a more general IEvent interface, which can represent any repeatable event that can be put in a time table. For instance, an IEvent could be something like "Wednesdays, at 13:15", while the getNextOccurrence method could return a specific moment in time, e.g. "Wednesday, October 20 2010, 13:15".
The events can be compared to each other (via the IComparable interface), in an absolute way. For instance, in the absolute orderings, Mon 12:05 < Mon 20:08 < Tue 00:00 < Sun 15:00.
Hint: The java.util.Calendar class can be useful in manipulating dates. The general workflow is to construct a calendar object from a date representation (a Date object, or individual values for the date fields, for example), then perform all the required operations, and finally export back the result as a date object.
Exercise 3 (10 points)
In this exercise, we put the campus map and the metro schedule together, and offer the "next metro I can catch" service.
You need to implement the epfl.sweng.MetroScheduler class, which takes as inputs, at construction, an EPFLMap object, and a TimeTable<MetroArrivalEvent> object, together with the map point where the station is located.
You also have to implement the getNextMetro method, which takes as input the current location and speed of the student, and returns the time of the next metro that can be caught.
Exercise 4 (40 points)
We now move our focus towards a different problem, that some confused students have: what courses to pick? We want to do something useful in this regard, for the Campus Buddy app, so in this exercise you will create a course recommendation system, based on the EPFL course schedule, and the personal preferences/requirements of the student. Recommendation systems are very complex in general, but we aim for a simple one. In the epfl.sweng.courses package, you will need to follow the next steps:
Exercise 5 (10 bonus points)
Some lazy students decided that the lectures are the only relevant parts of the courses, so they would want a schedule in which only the lecture intervals are non-overlapping, and don't care about the other course intervals.
We will help them with this task by offering a new method in the CourseScheduler class -- scheduleCourseLectures -- with the same interface as the original one. For this exercise, the ICourse interface offers a function for retrieving only the lecture interval of the course (we assume that the lecture part is not split across multiple intervals).
To hand in your assignments, you will use your SVN account. Below, SVNAccount stands for the actual path to your SVN account (e.g., https://svn.epfl.ch/svn/sweng2010-candea).
We will post questions & answers of general interest here, as they appear on the discussion group.
Q: Can I modify the provided code skeleton, in order to make the implementation easier?
A: For this assignment, for the first exercise only, you can adapt the reference implementation of the graph data structures to your own needs. We are providing it for your convenience, in the case you don't have a fully functional implementation of the second assignment.
Please also note that you can make interface changes only in the epfl.sweng.graph package, and not in epfl.sweng.graph.level or any other place in the code skeleton, unless otherwise requested by the homework statement.
Q: Can I make the LevelNode class be a descendant of GeoNode, in order to be able to use the A* goal searcher?
A: Yes, you can do that, since it doesn't break the LevelNode original interface specifications.

I lost my right to drive because I had an accident due to sleeping behind the wheel. I can't stay awake in a car. I usually get very sleepy around 2 pm. I get off work at 3. When I get home, I pass out, and when I wake up, it takes a few minutes before I realize where and who I am... help!!! My Dr is not listening. The Adderall was working, but Protonix was reducing the effectiveness of it. I told him when I stopped the protonix, I was great all day. But, he may need to increase the Adderall dosage so I could take my protonix. But, he changed me to nuvigil instead, and now I am worse than I ever was.

Find a new doctor if he's not listening. You can do bad all by yourself you don't need his help for that. Your paying him to have your best interests. You are the one taking the meds and you know your body. He should be listening to you. He can't help if he won't listen when you speak. Its like blowing a tire, you go to the shop you say I blew a tire and the guy says are you sure maybe its the oil. If he was listening and paying attention he would know its the tire. Your no fool make your doctor hear you or replace him. Good luck
Thank you so much. That makes me want to go slap him. I went to my primary care physician and told her what was going on. She listens very well. She gave the Adderall back to me. I haven't went back to my sleep doctor yet. I have an apt next week. I have to see him again, because he is the one who has to give me my driving rights back. He's going to listen this time if I have to yell at him.
Good for you. It's very important for the doctors to listen to their patients. Sure they have a degree but their not you and who knows you better than yourself. My doctor was listening when I said can we up the Dexedrine I'm taking it works for me but it's not doing what it use to. The only trouble is no one has it and they can't order it. It doesn't come in the dosage I need. So we're back to the drawing board. I'm allergic to everything else we've tried. We're out of options. They need to come up with a new drug I can take.

Date: 12/3/2015
President's Piece March 2015
Being Society President for a year is a real honour and brings with it some very interesting meetings with Government Ministers and Officials. Last week was no exception.
On Monday morning I was invited to attend No.10 for an hour and a half meeting with Gareth Bradford, the Prime Ministers Policy Advisor on Planning, Homes and Local Government. We had a wide ranging discussion over the effects of the budget reductions on local government and particularly on planning services (the most affected area according to the National Audit Office), the benefits and challenges of partnering for smaller councils as a way of addressing budget reductions and how best to improve the planning system. Whilst it was clear that no changes are likely until after the election in May, this is the time to promote our proposals to influence the post-election Government's programme of business. The ideas in our manifesto were received with interest. Incidentally this was my first visit to No. 10 and it was a real experience walking through that famous front door. I have been invited back for a further meeting!
In the afternoon I received an invitation to attend a Neighbourhood Planning summit with Brandon Lewis, Stephen Williams and Oliver Letwin. This too was most interesting. Some 1,400 neighbourhood plan areas have now been designated covering around six million people. 54 Plans have been adopted following successful referendums which had an average 33% turnout and 88% of those voting in favour. The Government's belief, best articulated by Oliver Letwin, is that local communities are likely to object most to top down imposition of new development. But when they feel that they have real influence in the process and help decide where development goes and what it looks like they are more likely to support development in their communities. This seems a good approach to me but I am yet to see a neighbourhood plan which proposed large scale development (say over 5,000 homes) in an area. But it is true that public attitudes to new development appear to be changing. As we heard at the Forum in December the public's attitude to new homes isn't as negative as many politicians think and as the just published research on Public Attitudes to Housebuilding (DCLG, 11th March 2014) shows, the strength of opposition to new house building has fallen dramatically. In 2010 46 per cent of respondents said they would oppose new homes being built in their local area and by 2014 this had fallen to only 21 per cent.
After the meeting I had a useful discussion with Brandon Lewis about the issue raised by a number of those present where appeals have been allowed in the absence of an adopted local plan but where plan preparation is well advanced. This is one of the major problems with the current system whereby significant weight is only accorded right at the end of the process. We discussed weight being given at plan submission stage and significant weight at the end of the Examination Hearing. We will pursue this suggestion with the Minister.
On Friday I had a further opportunity to discuss these matters when I met Oliver Letwin (Minister for Policy in the Cabinet Office). We discussed our two stage approach to the Local Plan system, the first stage of which would be a simple Housing Market Area (or larger) strategic plan which all LPAs would co-operate in preparing. This would set out the SHMA area Objective Assessment of Need, its distribution between authorities and the strategic infrastructure required. Carrots (say a one off grant or infrastructure funding) and sticks (possibly holding back new homes bonus or business rates retention) might be necessary to encourage all to participate. When completed this would then give all participating councils a tick in the Duty to Cooperate box and there would be greater flexibility over the stage two plans.
There is no doubt that there is significant interest in the Society's manifesto proposal and some useful feedback on how we might develop our ideas in the run up to the election. Planning is very likely to be on the agenda for the incoming Government and we need to be ready with well thought through practical proposals to ensure planning delivers the sustainable homes and jobs the country needs.
I look forward to seeing many of you at our joint POS/British Property Federation Conference on the morning of 18th March. We have some great speakers lined up and it promises to be a most interesting morning. Details are on the POS website .
Finally, don't forget the annual two day POS Spring Conference which will this year be held in Dorchester on 18th and 19th June. Again a good line up of speakers is planned and a chance to consider the direction for planning post-election. Do get the dates into your diaries.

Small Flock Series: Incubation of Poultry
Metadata[+] Show full item record
Hatching eggs — watching an egg turn into a baby chick — is a learning experience for students of all ages as well as a practical way for you to start a small poultry flock. The incubation process is relatively simple, though it may not seem so at first, once you learn the procedures and techniques involved. Incubation procedures for other common farm poultry species such as turkeys and waterfowl are similar to those for chickens; however, there are differences in incubation times and optimum conditions. This publication focuses on care of incubating chicken eggs.

THE polls put Obama and Romney neck and neck – and that suggests a very divided and polarised voting public.
Despite nearly £3billion spent on campaigning by the candidates, the result hangs on a handful of swing states.
It seems like both men have to win Ohio in order to get the magic number of 270 votes in the electoral college.
The state has a good number of electoral votes but also has an important number of undecided voters at the moment.
It is a microcosm of what is happening across the country and it could come down to a handful of votes.
A very small percentage of voters will have an incredibly important say in the outcome of the election and everyone will be hooked to their screens to see what happens in Ohio.
A recount would have to be sanctioned by the courts, at state and federal level, and that could be a rather tangled and convoluted situation.
Republicans have led the charge against certain forms of voter registration, which has always been a big Democrat gambit to get out the vote.
In the event of the result being very close, you can imagine there will be a lot of conversations at state level about voter registration.
But legal challenges wouldn't be unprecedented, given the delays that occurred in Florida
in 2000. The challenges were actually abandoned for political reasons, not legal ones.
As a result, if there is a sound legal case, it could roll on for a considerable period of time. It could well be beyond an announcement in the early hours of Wednesday.

The model consists of three componentsˇŞalignments, gene trees and the species tree. This hierarchical model involves two layers; the sequences-and-genetree layer and the genetree-and-speciestree layer. The model assumes that the gene trees are generated from a coalescent process occurring along the lineages of the species tree, while the sequences are generated from a mutation process occurring on the branches of the gene trees.

Outline Topics Leadership Traits Ethics& Values T
s Organizational Culture Leadership Traits Coach Herman Boone Coach Boone displayed a combination of dominance and high energy as it pertains to leadership styles depending on the situation at hand.
Boone's football team did not have to guess at how his legitimate power as coach would impact the camp training. He announced that his method of training was a "dictatorship."
Coach Boone's need for power was indicative to display as it was imperative for the community, faculty, and team to understand who made to decisions of what steps and training the team was to take going forward. Julius Campbell
Julius was the model for the Black players
He proved himself as an emergent leader when he stands up to Gerry and tells he will never know his teammates unless he wants to and that "attitude reflects leadership" Gerry Bertier Leadership Traits Leadership Traits Teams •Coach Boone uses his creativity to form a cross-functional team from a diverse group of people with cultural differences
•In the forming stage, Coach Boone clearly presented the roles, responsibilities, and consequences of the team members
Coach Boone made it clear in the beginning saying, "this is a dictatorship, I am the law"
The team was instructed how to dress and what time to be at the bus and if they failed to do this, they would not make the team. Teams • Ultimate team goal is achieved:
• The Titans win the State Championship beating all odds.
Through all the racial tension, Coaches and players overcame their obstacles, built quality relationships, established commitment that shared a common purpose • The power of culture was one of the driving forces behind the Titans' success
• The team established internal unity by respecting each other and learning to play football like men
• Through external adaptation, the Titans taught the city how to trust the soul of a man rather than the look of a man Organizational Culture •Gerry was the "All American" player and had the need for affiliation from his teammates and his community.
•Gerry attempted to instruct Coach Boone on what plays to run, what position to play, and what player to play and when to play them
•He stated to Boone, "we don't need any of your people." Ethics and Value Ethic Codes was a shown throughout the movie in many ways. Ethics next to values are the two most important traits in the movie. Ethics was shown by a number of characters in the movie.Gary cuts a player (his best friend) when he knows that player was purposefully hurting the team
Coach Yoast jeopardizing his own admittance to the Hall of Fame Organizational Culture • Coach Boone had a major role in influencing the culture
• The team went to camp to adjust to his style of training and coaching.
This aligned with his strategy and structure to the culture he wanted to achieve within the team
• The symbolic action Coach Boone employed was taking the team to the Battle of Gettysburg site
He explained to them that hatred is not the behavior he expects them to model Ethics and Value Values are also important factors throughout the movie; both Coaches shows their values through symbolic actions.
Coach Boone offers Coach Yoast another position, after taking his old position as head coach.
Coach Yoast tells Coach Boone that he was indeed the right man for the job. Summary and Conclusion Name two main leaders mentioned in the presentation 1.Coach Boone
