Federal government shuts down

Federal government shuts down
The impasse means 800,000 federal workers will be furloughed Tuesday. National parks, monuments and museums, as well as most federal offices, will close. Tens of thousands of air-traffic controllers, prison guards and Border Patrol agents will be required to serve without pay. And many congressional hearings — including one scheduled for Tuesday on last month's Washington Navy Yard shootings — will be postponed.
FAQ for federal workers.

For me Christmas is my grandfather's wisdom, my grandmother's holiday cakes, my parent's endless love and my brother's infectious laughter. The joy I get from all those things can't compare with anything in the whole world. I want to wish you a good memory to always remember who can make you happy. Do exactly the same for them. May your Christmas be filled with joy and peace.
It's been a long hard year, but Christmas is the time when we gain peace of mind and a long-awaited clarity. The only true essence of Christmas is to make happy the ones you love, so don't you ever forget about that. May this holiday season be cheerful and lively. Merry Christmas!
When I was a child, I always tried to do only good things so Santa could give me nice presents only. But we all grow up and make a lot of mistakes in our lives. So here is my wish for you: even if Santa doesn't forgive you for what you've done, find someone who always will. Merry Christmas!
As I walk into my Father's house on the Christmas night, I'm becoming a child again.

Wishing you to feel exactly the same and to always be with your family during this holidays. Merry Christmas!
One of the most valuable things my family taught me is that giving is much more important than receiving, and Christmas is the best time to show everyone what I've learned.

The Christmas madness that takes place in different kinds of shops sometimes can be extremely annoying and tiresome. May you find a person who can help you to cope with this. Merry Christmas!

It's not a secret that out parents have always indulged us with expensive Christmas presents and done their best to make us happy on this magical night.

All seasons are great for some reason. Summer is great for warmth and light, spring is for inspiration and autumn is for deep thoughts and rethinking different things. But winter is great for all these reasons, because holy Christmas includes it all. Merry Christmas!
We all stray from the path sometimes. And just as the Star of Bethlehem heralded the birth of hallowed Christ, I wish that the light of this magic holiday would show you the right way. Merry Christmas!
When the stars begin to shine and the moon shows up, just look at the sky and feel the magic of Christmas night and the unity of the world. This wonderful feeling is enough to be happy. Merry Christmas!
May this incredible night bring much love, light and happiness into your house! And may it all stay there till the next Christmas. Wish you a happy holiday!
Let the good times of the present become the precious memories of tomorrow.
Merry Christmas! Wish you lots of joy and happiness!
May the amazing moments spent with your closest people during Christmas keep you warm and cheerful for a long time!
Christmas comes into our homes and hearts, bringing us endless joy and spreading it all around.

Manual typewriter by David Ellingsen
I recently came across these hauntingly beautiful installations by photographer David Ellingsen. The photos are from part one in a series entitled Obsolete Delete, which David describes is "the speed of technological obsolescence, the environment, and the collision of the two."
It's amazing how rapidly technology has changed within the past twenty years. Casette tapes? CRTs? Those are things my children will probably never use when they're grown. The only technology from my childhood that I still keep with me is a VCR and VHS tapes, mostly a collection of Disney Classics that my little dearests watch on occasion, so VHS tapes aren't something are foreign to them. But technology from my parents and grandparents past? Those are historic relics in my childrens eyes.

Readers of the blog know of our love of hops and hop variety. They will also be aware of our desire to showcase the best breweries around. One of those that delivers on both counts is the Pictish Brewery.
Richard Sutton, formerly a brewer at Firkin, (there's a blast from the past!), set up the brewery in 2000 in Rochdale. Why call it Pictish ? Don't quote me but I think his brewing kit came from a Firkin brewery in Dundee, hence the Scottish connection.
Since starting brewing Pictish have won many awards for their many and varied beers. Locally, we often come across 'Brewers Gold', a regular at The Star and often found in the Rat. The Star also takes many Pictish specials.
I had a quick look at the Pictish web site, and along with their regulars, seasonals, and monthly specials there is also a section of single hop variety beers. I will not bore you with the whole list but Richard is obviously a hop fanatic and not afraid to try something different.
The list goes from A for Amarillo to V for Vanguard and fits in many of the letters in between. From Bobek in Eastern Europe, to Mount Hood in North America, from the rare hedgerow hop Susan to the New Zealand Riwaka, they are all there. Just take a look at the list and marvel at the names of hops you have never heard of, and be jealous of those fortunate enough to have sampled them.
Here is a brewery that is not afraid to try something unusual, just a shame that they are not more widely available in West Yorkshire. May be the Lancastrians have got one up on us Yorkshiremen this time.
PS Should you ever be in Stockport, the superb Crown does have Pictish beer usually available. It almost worth the trip just for that !!

Not always that available here either, but usually a treat when you find it.
I think our CAMRA Branch is overdue a visit!

For those interested in pub related trivia (or lunacy !!). Tizzi, the Star cat, recently had 3 kittens, we have one which has been named Pictish, in deference to the brewery, and another is called Malley, after Mallinsons. Seemed logical at the time !! Tim

Nearly always 2 Pictish beers on at the Crown in Bacup. Excellent!

After reading about your bed bug steamers on the Internet, I decided to buy a 500VP for my extermination business. I have a lot of residential and small business customers. This machine has saved me a lot of time. The vacuum speeds my cleanup and my clients are impressed with the fact that it has special anti-bacterial technology. I also like that variable pressure feature.
Brooklyn, N.Y.
I must say that when I got the equipment (the MEGA 500 vapor + vacuum), I thought I would have trouble using it. I read through the user manual and just started using the steam cleaner. I cleaned and sanitized everything in our house (carpets, mattresses, bedspreads, tile and grout, drapes, baths, sinks, showers, upholstery, counters, appliances, walls, mirrors, etc.) and was STUNNED by how clean I could make everything the machine touched! The power I had in my hands to clean anything without chemicals was really something! I'm a 'cleaning HERO' in our home now (my wife and daughter are very impressed)!
I bought the equipment to add services to my existing carpet and duct cleaning business (house cleaning, mattress sanitizing, grout cleaning). The vapor unit and vacuum are both beautiful, shiny, stainless steel. It has the look and feel of real quality. The attachments are all heavy duty. I used it today for the first time, to professionally clean a home and made over $200. The lady was so happy with my cleaning effectiveness that she gave me a $20 tip! I could say nice things about this equipment all day but I think I'll finish by saying - I'm glad I didn't buy the wrong machine!

Thank you so much for the great sales support! My husband and me were concerned that buying a commercial steam cleaner would be too complicated and too expensive. But after we bought a cheap unit that broke (and it's replacement broke as well), we decided to give you guys a call. We were surprised how affordable this machine was. And we love the stainless steel construction and life-time boiler warranty.
I've been using it on everything! Ovens, bathrooms, tile floors. I even used it on the dashboard and leather seating in our cars.
I even recommended this machine to a friend. (We all live in a gated community and have houses with large tiled floors.)

This is my second Daimer purchase. I am enjoying my new Mega 500V steam vacuum cleaner. The steamer is lightweight and is easy to maneuver--and it's cute-like R2D2 a friend of mine quipped. The extra long hose of the steamer made cleaning the outside of my windows quick and easy. Besides the length, this model has a really nice connection mechanism for the hose connections. It is much easier to slide the bright yellow buttons to connect the attachments than the spring connection in the older model. It is also nice that the latches are labeled, so at a glance I can tell if the attachment is locked, or open. It is really a beautiful unit.
Stainless -much easier to clean than this model's predecessor, which had a plastic housing and some pretty hard to get at crevices. I use mine every day. Both for personal use-Allergies, molds, dog pee under the tack strips, getting all that dust out of the baseboard heaters, my mattresses, and in my business to clean out my industrial serger. A serger sews and cuts raw edges at the same time. Mine runs at about 3000 stitches/minute. It is also self oiling. So, the lint that gets stuck all over it is also full of oil. I can blow all of it out-in about 5 minutes.
This machine has paid for itself. Even if I leave out the doctor appts, and medicines we no longer need for allergies and asthma---

If you are worried about how to achieve indoor sanitization, purchase commercial steam cleaners that are geared to remove dirt, allergens, and moisture. Commercial steam cleaners that are fitted with wet and dry vacuum save hours on the cleaning process, and they are therefore a valuable tool for maintaining the quality of indoor environment.
While there are many dealers offering purported commercial steam cleaners, few steam cleaners can match Daimer® in their quality, versatility, and efficiency. Daimer's steam vacuum cleaners are designed for commercial operations. Therefore, these steam vacuum cleaners offer advanced features and innovative technology that help clean and sanitize the indoor areas.
With a commercial steam cleaner like Daimer's KleenJet® Mega 500V, you can achieve what an ordinary steam vacuum cleaner cannot. For example, you can remove allergens from the indoor surfaces. Allergens are notoriously hard to remove because ordinary vacuum cleaners keep releasing them back into the air during vacuuming. The KleenJet® Mega 500V, which contains a HEPA filter, eliminates this problem and keeps pollen, dust, pet hair, and other particles trapped inside the filtration chamber.
A commercial steam cleaner offers many other benefits. This type of steam cleaner has better parts. It is corrosion resistant and handles heat and pressure much better than an ordinary steam cleaner. A commercial steam cleaner such as the KleenJet® Mega 500V has a large boiler (with a capacity of 4 liters), and an extraction chamber, thereby enhancing the machine's performance.
Daimer's commercial steam system has another advantage. It features a stainless steel boiler that is durable and corrosion resistant. Considering that a steam vacuum cleaner operates under high temperature and pressure level, it is only prudent to invest in a steam machine with a tough boiler.

A few weeks ago, a man named Robert reached out to me after I wrote my first piece on the rent crisis in Miami. He said the story had touched a nerve and confided his particular story. It's just one of many from current and former Miamians affected by the prohibitive cost of rents in the city.
Robert was destined to live in Miami. Although he was born here, his birth mother drove to Jacksonville and dropped him off at a children's home because he was an unwanted baby.
Remarkably, he was brought back to this city by his stepfather, who ensured his safe return. Not even being carted off hundreds of miles away from home by a mother who wouldn't keep him could keep him away.
For almost his whole life, Robert lived here, spending most of his career working for the Florida Department of Law Enforcement and Florida Highway Patrol. He led a quiet life, making a modest income, eventually marrying his wife Arletty, a Nicaraguan woman who was living paycheck to paycheck working as a waitress at a Cuban restaurant.
In 2007, Robert moved to Port St. Lucie, which is roughly two hours north of Miami by car, to take care of a sick uncle who had recently moved there. The uncle recently passed away, and Robert wanted to return to the city where he knows he belongs. Unfortunately, that's proven more difficult than he ever anticipated, as rent prices have gone up steeply since he left.
Finding a comparable home to own was out of the question. Currently, Robert lives in a 2,600-square-foot home with two bedrooms and two bathrooms on a quarter-acre lot in Port St. Lucie. He bought it for $165,000 in 2013. A friend of his who works in real estate says a similar home in Miami-Dade or Broward would cost $375,000 to $425,000.
He was willing to downsize, so he began looking for smaller apartments in his desired neighborhoods of Aventura and Miami Gardens. But even when cutting way back from what he lives in now, the rents are still prohibitively expensive.
Right now, Robert pays $1,100 for his home, which includes the mortgage plus taxes and insurance. Although he was paying roughly that amount for a two-bedroom, two-bathroom place in North Miami back in 2007, finding anything that approaches that price now has been an uphill battle.
He has spent months searching in vain for an apartment that would meet his needs, but he says that what he would pay toward rent for a two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment in Miami Lakes or Aventura would be $650 to $850 more than what he currently pays.
He says he isn't the only one in this community experiencing these problems. He has noticed a trickle of new residents who have moved to St. Lucie County after being pushed out of Miami-Dade and Broward Counties due to high rents. Nearly all of them wanted to stay, but none of them could justify the outrageous cost of housing any longer.
High rents in Miami are also affecting his wife Arletty's family, who still live here. Her family comes from a working-class background and the high rents have forced several family members to move in together to prevent their housing costs from eating more and more of their paychecks.
Not being able to move back to Miami has taken an emotional toll on Robert. He says not living in Miami has left with him with a corazón roto, a broken heart. He misses the big things like being part of a diverse community, and the small things like the pastelitos you find at Cuban bakeries dotting the city. He continues to read the Herald to help him stay close to what is going on in his old community.
I ask Robert what he intends to do now that his dream of moving back looks like it will remain just that, a dream. He says that he's a fighter at heart, in part because he's practiced martial arts all of his life.
He says that he will work tirelessly to find a home he can afford in this community for as long as he can, because he knows it is what he desires most, and he could not live with himself if he couldn't do everything possible to move back here.
But he also realizes, as he continues his search, that the prospects of moving back are growing dimmer.
"I just don't want to lay the gloves down, but it looks like I'm being defeated."

May 2010 United States Poverty Rate
by Amy Morina
Submitted : Spring 2015
Based on the Current Population Survey data the United States poverty rate was estimated for March 2010. First, the poverty rate for each household size was calculated using integral calculus and the poverty thresholds released by the United States Census Bureau. Then the weighted average of these results was calculated to find the overall poverty rate in March 2010 to be 19.95%. This estimate was compared to the actual poverty rate released by the U.S Census Bureau to gauge the accuracy of our methods.

Curriculum Policy
Including Early Years, Before and After School Care
The curriculum is all the planned activities that we organise in order to promote learning and personal growth and development. It includes the requirements of the National Curriculum in terms of core and foundation subjects taught. The subjects which are timetabled include
English: grammar, creative writing, reading, literature, speaking and listening; French, Spanish, drama and Latin in year 5 and 6.
Mathematics; investigative, skills based, methodology. Scientific; investigative, skills and methodology.
Technological including ICT, computing/coding, design
PE and games
Extensive PHSEE is taught throughout the whole curriculum and as a specialised lesson. Together with SMSC education, the School aims to have British values of honesty, integrity, tolerance and kindness. We aim to teach children how to grow into positive, responsible people, who can work and co-operate with all others while developing knowledge and skills.
Extra-curricular sessions are an integral part of the curriculum and provide many opportunities outside of lessons to extend and broaden opportunities for learning.
The curriculum is the means by which the school achieves its objective of educating children in the knowledge, skills and understanding that they need in order to lead fulfilling lives. We value the way in which all children are unique, and our curriculum promotes respect for the views of each individual child, as well as for people of all cultures. We value the spiritual and moral development of each person, as well as their intellectual and physical growth. We value the importance of each person in our community. We organise our curriculum so that we promote co-operation and understanding between all members of our community. We value the rights enjoyed by each person in our society. We respect each child in our school for who they are, and we treat them with fairness and honesty. We aim to enable each person to be successful, and we provide equal opportunities for all the children in our school. We value our environment, and we aim, through our curriculum, to teach respect for our world and particularly our country, and how we should care for it for future generations, as well as our own.
These values are embedded in our School Values which is displayed around the school and are reflective of British Values of democracy, equality and tolerance.
The success of the curriculum can be measured quantitively by the progress in speaking, listening, literacy and mathematical skills at the end of year tests and qualitively by the gain in confidence, actions towards each other and views on the world expressed by the children.
The School plans its curriculum to be creative and innovative and as such is a 'Creative Curriculum'. At its heart a Creative Curriculum recognises the professionalism of teachers in being able to plan and deliver the best curriculum for the specific children in their care. This allows for children to receive a rich and varied experience that goes far beyond the minimal entitlement as identified in the current National Curriculum.
The Creative Curriculum is inspirational both for teachers and for pupils. It makes learning motivational and successful for all involved. The creative curriculum is skills based and knowledge supported. It includes not only what to study but also how to study. Hence planning begins with an understanding of the key skills to be developed and the content is selected to support these. These key skills are sometimes subject based. Other times they are key skills for learning than enable children to become good communicators, solve problems, work well with others and ultimately improve their own learning performance.
Aims and objectives
The aims of our school curriculum are:
to enable all children to learn and develop their skills to the best of their ability;
to promote a positive attitude towards learning, so that children enjoy coming to school, and acquire a solid basis for lifelong learning;
to teach children the basic skills of literacy, numeracy and information communication technology (ICT);
to enable children to be creative and to develop their own thinking;
to teach children about their developing world, including how their environment and society have changed over time;
to help children understand Britain's cultural heritage and the importance of British values and way of life;
to enable children to be positive citizens in society;
to fulfill all the requirements of the National Curriculum.
to teach children to have an awareness of their own spiritual development, and to understand right from wrong;
to help children understand the importance of truth and fairness, so that they grow up committed to equal opportunities for all;
to enable children to have respect for themselves and high self-esteem, and
to be able to live and work co-operatively with others.
Organisation and planning
We plan our curriculum in three phases. We agree a long-term plan for each key stage. This indicates what topics are to be taught in each term, and to which class. We review our long-term plan on an annual basis. With our medium-term plans, we give clear guidance on the objectives, activities and outcomes expected for each unit of work. Our short-term plans are those that our teachers write on a weekly or daily basis. We use these to set out the learning objectives for each session, and to identify what resources and activities we are going to use in the lesson. Within this teachers will plan differentiation appropriate for the children in the task set in a lesson.
In the Early Years Foundation Stage planning follows the 7 areas of learning and children are assessed against these areas during their time in this stage and at the end in the EY profile. There is careful integration from Pre-School to Lower I and then from the Early Years to Key Stage I in Upper I. We plan the curriculum carefully, so that there is coherence and full coverage of all aspects of the early learning areas, and there is planned progression in all curriculum areas.
At Key Stage 1 and 2 the curriculum places a greater emphasis on the core and foundation subjects and we teach these subjects separately. This means that, for example, a child may concentrate in one term on a history topic, then switch to a greater emphasis on geography in the next term. Over the three terms of the academic year, each child has the opportunity to experience the full range of National Curriculum subjects.
Each subject has its own policy. The policies for mathematics, English, history, geography and science and other subjects detail the aims and objectives for each one together with the amount of time dedicated to them and the resources available. These policies are kept with the Scheme of Work and are available on request. All policies and schemes are kept in the staff room and each teacher keeps a copy of those relevant to their class in the classroom.
It is the role of each subject leader to keep up to date with developments in their subject, at both national and local level. They review the way the subject is taught in the school and plan for improvement. This development planning links to whole-school objectives. Each subject leader reviews the curriculum plans for their subject, ensures that there is full coverage of the National Curriculum and that progression is planned into schemes of work.
PHSEE has an important role in the School and is taught through timetabled lessons, assemblies, charity work, church visits, parent input amongst others. A scheme of work and policy is available in the staff room and class relevant schemes are kept in the classroom. The scheme reflects the school ethos and encourages respect for other people especially in regard to the protected characteristics in the 2010 Act.
The PSHEE scheme was altered in 2015 to giver greater emphasis to the importance of promoting British values and to extend the economic education of pupils.
PSED and CL are aspects of the Early Years education as set out in the Early Years Scheme.
A Creative Curriculum - Guidelines
Risking: having the self-confidence and freedom to fail and keep trying
Envisaging: being original and imaginative about what might be
Analysing: asking critical and challenging questions
Thinking: taking time for reflection and soft thinking
Interacting: sharing ideas and collaborating

Giving freedom to fail with the confidence to try again
Create a culture of collaboration by:
Sharing values and ethos with the whole school community
Promoting the importance of talk and collaboration in consolidating learning
Ensuring everyone has the opportunity to learn from others
Promoting teamwork and detailed planning
Developing a distributed style that shares ownership and draws others into the organisation
Emphasise cognitive approaches by:
Advocating a range of teaching strategies and learning styles
Promoting the importance of learning across the curriculum
Encouraging teachers to make children active partners in their learning
Encouraging teachers to structure tasks and pace of learning to make it challenging and enjoyable
Make a real commitment to the community by:
Involving parents and carers at every opportunity
Focusing on the importance of the learning environment
Extending involvement into the local community and beyond
Promote child-centeredness by:
Promoting personal, social and spiritual aspects of the curriculum
Encouraging teachers to develop each child's confidence, self-discipline and understanding of their learning
Encouraging teachers to make learning vivid, real and meaningful with many first-hand experiences
Providing for children with special needs, additional needs, those with English as an additional language and the gifted and talented
It is important that all pupils have the opportunity to learn and make progress. This is ensured by a comprehensive SEN&D Policy which has been developed to review individual pupils regularly and to put in the appropriate identified support.
The children at the School are mixed ability and this will encompass those who are gifted and talented, those of more average ability and those who require learning support.
The curriculum in our school is designed to provide access and opportunity for all children who attend the school. If we think it necessary to adapt the curriculum to meet the needs of individual children either by providing further support or by providing further challenges we do so and keep parents informed and consulted.
Generally the teachers plan for all the individual needs of the children in their class in their weekly planner. As the main cohort of pupils are above average ability the plans are set to encourage high standards and enable high attainment whenever possible.
If a child has a special need, our school does all it can to meet these individual needs. We comply with the requirements set out in the DCSF Code of Practice in providing for children with special needs. Class teachers work with the Learning Support group to provide Individual Education Plans which are reviewed regularly. For more information on access to the curriculum by all groups please refer to the Learning Support Policy.
Children who are more able will find the lessons provide plenty of opportunity to challenge their knowledge base and their skills base.
Effective preparation of the pupils for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences for life in British society.
British values are taught as part of the PHSEE and SMSC curriculums and more detail is given there. These areas of the curriculum are part of all subjects and are also embedded in assemblies, PHSEE lessons, school council, house elections, school trips e.g. houses of parliament etc
In essence the character of integrity and grit are already a fundamental part of our curriculum and extra-curricula values and have been at the heart of our education for a number of years. This is ideal preparation for life in British Society.

I bet you received referrals and tons of names of friends who have a cool camera. Here's what you can do to narrow down the prospects:
- Ask the potential photographer to show you a FULL session - all photos included. Because the photos you see on websites are the top photos, when you see a full session you will get a better idea of what the photographer produces consistently. Look for a style that matches what you would like to receive. (Check below for 3 full sessions, including all the photos that the couples received from me.)
- Read true and unbiased recommendations. Online ratings posted to Google or even Facebook are very hard to forge. When someone writes good things about a photographer, look for specifics on why they are so great. (You can read my reviews here, here and here.)
- Don't let price be the only thing that will decide who will be your photographer. A good, professional and dedicated photographer is not cheap. Also, your time is not cheap, so don't spend yours and your fiance's on someone who is cheap that is trying to figure out the direction for your photos as they go. A professional will have a schedule, direct your session and guide you throughout the whole process. Consider investing in someone that will be worth your dollars, your time and, especially, your memories. (You can see my prices here.)

on the value of the lease revenue commitments. Accordingly, the continued
success of the Company will be dependent, in part, upon the performance of the
properties it manages. Such performance in turn will depend in part upon the
ability of the Company to attract and retain creditworthy tenants for the
properties it manages, the Company's ability to control operating expenses
(some of which are beyond the Company's control), financial conditions
prevailing generally and in the areas in which such properties are located and
the real estate market generally.
The Company intends to continue to selectively pursue domestic and
international acquisitions as a means of strengthening its position as an
industry leader, as well as expanding and enhancing its current product and
service offerings and geographic market coverage. The success of the Company's
acquisition strategy will be dependent upon the availability of suitable
acquisition candidates on favorable terms, of which there can be no assurance.
Further, there can be no assurance that any acquisition, including the merger
of Galbreath with the Company, will be integrated successfully into the
Company's operations or will perform in accordance with expectations or that
business judgements as to the value or consequences of any such acquisition
will prove correct. The consideration paid for any future acquisition may be
in cash, debt or shares of the Company's capital stock. The Company could
incur substantial indebtedness or substantial goodwill or both in connection
with its acquisition strategy. In addition, issuances of additional shares of
the Company's capital stock in connection with an acquisition could result in
dilution to stockholders.
Many of the properties for which the Company provides management and leasing
or investment management services are office buildings in the central business
districts ("CBDs") of major urban cities. Approximately 39% of the 132.7
million square feet under the Company's property, leasing and facility
management agreements, and approximately 36% of the $12.6 billion in private
real estate assets under the Company's investment management agreements as of
March 31, 1997, are related to properties located in CBDs. During the early
1990s, rental rates and property values of CBD office buildings experienced
greater declines relative to other property types and locations. This decline,
and the slower recovery of this sector to date, has been largely attributable
to over-supply of new office space and corporate restructurings affecting
large businesses. The cyclical market conditions of the CBD office sector will
continue to have an important impact on the Company's operations.
The Company intends to use the increased financial flexibility created by
the Offering to expand its co-investment activities. The Company's increased
participation as a principal in real estate investments could increase
fluctuations in the Company's net earnings and cash flow. The Company's co-
investments also inherently involve the risk of loss of the Company's
investment. Moreover, in certain of these investments, the Company will not
have complete discretion to control the timing of the disposition of such
investments and, as a result, the recognition of any related gain or loss. See
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Historically, the Company's revenue, operating income and net earnings in
the first three calendar quarters are substantially lower than in the fourth
quarter. This seasonality is due to a calendar year-end focus on the
completion of transactions, which is consistent with the real estate industry
generally. In addition, an increasing percentage of the Company's management
contracts contain clauses providing for performance bonuses to be received if
the Company achieves certain performance targets. Such incentive payments are
generally earned in the fourth quarter. In contrast, the Company's non-
variable operating expenses, which are treated as expenses when incurred
during the year, are relatively constant on a quarterly basis. Therefore, the
Company typically sustains a loss in the first and second quarter of each
calendar year, reports a small profit or loss in the third quarter and records
a substantial majority of the Company's earnings in the fourth calendar
quarter. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations--Quarterly Results of Operations."

How to go paperless with your business card in 2017 ?
I have explored the android app Camcard to digitize the business card of clients I meet and have that information encoded on my davcard server before I leave the meeting, it's a great way to actually encode all these new contacts into your database instead of letting the business cards wait on your desk.
But what about giving your business card paperless ?
in 2017 most phones are NFC enabled so I tested this by buying 10 #NFC tags at https:/
and then used the android app NFC Tools (ended by buying the pro version of this app because it's really good) NFC Tasks + NFC Tools you can have your tags doing pretty nice things just by approaching your phone from the tag. There are other apps outhere that manage to write countless pre-made tags that you just need to adapt to your needs.
So I basically used the VCARD template to share my full contact and wrote this to the NFC tag.
Now when I want to give my business card the other person just need to approach his phone from mine and after a few seconds a new contact popup will ask if the contact is to be saved and it's done.
Writing/reading/erasing/reusing NFC tag is pretty much self evident when you start with NFC Tools even with the non-PRO version.
NFC tags can be used for countless things, including directing a user to a online survey for example, users can be sent to a URL or an image, mp3, or a PDF with your CV.
In a nutshell, to make your WordPress GDPR compliant, you should (1) look into all the different ways in which you're collecting visitor data. Next, (2) put mechanisms in place to make sure that users can control their data. Additionally, (3) it's probably a good idea to avoid collecting user data where it's not necessary (like the contact form example from above). And most importantly of all, (4) even if you're using third-party tools and solutions, you still need to make sure that those are GDPR compliant as well.
If you don't have all of the above taken care of by May 2018, trouble.

Washington: Ahead of the resumption of Sino-US military-to-military dialogue, the Obama administration has asked China to be more transparent in its defence communication with America, saying there is uncertainty about Beijing`s future capabilities and intentions.
"Much like the region itself, China`s future remains uncertain," Michael Schiffer, Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defence for East Asia policy, said in his remarks at the International Institute for Strategic Studies, a Washington-based think tank.
This is a remarkably complex moment in the history for China as it acquires new capabilities and begins to play a greater role in regional and global economic and security affairs, he said.
"And it is this very uncertainty about China`s future capabilities and intentions that makes the military component of the bilateral relationship so extraordinarily challenging and so extraordinarily important to get right," he said.
"It is the question, in fact, that we each have about each other, because China certainly has questions about us, just as we have questions about China, that underscores the importance of developing a deeper dialogue and a more durable military and security relationship between our two countries," Schiffer said.
This is an issue that the US talks quite openly and frankly with the Chinese, he said. "We emphasise on our part that while we understand that China is a growing economic power, it`s modernising its military in ways that are natural aspects of any country`s development, (but) the lack of transparency about the nature of China`s investments, its intents and its doctrine has caused disquiet in the United States and the region."
"It is, therefore, in both of our countries` interest, indeed in the interest of the region as a whole, that we are able to have forthcoming and candid conversations about China`s military modernisation and in particular about some of the anti-access capabilities that we think we see in the pipeline, but which we understand imperfectly," Schiffer said.
"It is precisely because we seek to avoid the sort of uncertainty and insecurity which if not managed properly can lead to a dangerous and unwanted security competition that we recognise the need to build a healthy military-to-military relationship, ... that as we like to say is sustained, reliable and continuous," he observed.
His remarks came ahead of Defence Secretary Robert Gates` visit to Beijing next week for the bilateral military-to-military dialogue. Schiffer noted that both President Barack Obama and Chinese leader Hu Jintao have expressed their commitment to seek a positive, cooperative and comprehensive bilateral relationship.
"They are clear that they see the military-to-military component as an integral part of this comprehensive relationship," he said.
Pentagon, he said, wants what both Obama and Hu want: sustained and reliable military-to-military contacts at all levels that can help reduce miscommunication, misunderstanding and the risk of miscalculation.
Schiffer said the US has made it clear to China that it stands ready whenever the Chinese Army is ready to engage with it and is serious about getting on with the hard work, the critically necessary work, of building a substantive and meaningful relationship.
"Without putting too fine a point on it, there is some reason to believe that the (Chinese) PLA (People`s Liberation Army) is aware of the danger that arises whenever militaries decide to cut off communication with one another," he said.
"... we believe that the fundamental purpose for our two countries in conducting the military-to-military relation is therefore to gain a better understanding of how each side thinks about the role and use of military power in achieving its national security objectives," Schiffer said.
A fully functioning military-to-military relationship can help both sides to develop a more acute awareness of the potential for cooperation and competition, and can help each side find ways to take advantage of the opportunities that exist to cooperate, he asserted.

Grandpa allegedly bashed for gripe over swearing
A MAN has been left with horrific injuries after he was bashed for telling a group of young men to tone down their swearing.
Queenslander Rod Pilling, 63, was on holiday in Western Australia when he hopped on a Perth train just after 7pm on Boxing Day.
While on the Mandurah-bound train, Mr Pilling heard three men swearing profusely.
"After a couple of minutes, I just said 'Guys, can you tone it down a bit? There's ladies here'," he told 7News.
But the three men didn't take too kindly to his request and, right before Mr Pilling was exiting the train at Canning Bridge, he was approached by one of the men.
The man hit him repeatedly in the head and face and even caused him to fall over from the assault before he was helped by another passenger.
The bystanders managed to stop the assault until Mr Pilling said he was going to call for the guards, right before the train approached Bull Creek Station.
"I just said to him: 'I'm going down there, I'm going to push the button and I'm going to get the guards.'
"He didn't like that too much. Didn't take a lot to that."
The man assaulted Mr Pilling again from behind but this time, the Queenslander fought back.
"I pulled both his legs out from under him," he told 7News.
"I wanted to get this bloke down and make him feel some pain," he added.
Mr Pilling feared the man was going to try and assault him again but the offender was stopped by two fellow passengers.
When the train pulled into Bull Creek Station, the men were detained by transit officers and removed from the train.
Mr Pilling now has two black eyes, a swollen lip and bruised ribs from the attack.
Despite the assault, the Queenslander said it wouldn't stop him from using public transport or asking people to watch their language.
"All I did was make a perfectly reasonable request and I'd do it again," he said.
Western Australia Police confirmed to news.com.au one 25-year-old man has been charged with disorderly behaviour.
Police are asking anyone who was on the train that saw the incident to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or report online at www.crimestopperswa.com.au.

What Are Your All-Time Favorite xoVain Articles?
It's gonna get sappy up in here.
As I get older, I become more and more conscious of the responsibility I have to buy and use products that are not only gentle to my body but gentle to the Earth, too. While I'm not perfect (who is?), I still like to seek out brands who are doing their best to produce ethically-sourced and made products that will not only boost my outer appearance, but make me feel good about my choice in using them.
When it comes to clothes, there's the tried-and-true option of wearing second-hand (you're recycling!) or finding lines that do their best to reduce their carbon footprint and use recycled materials -- the sexy and stylish Reformation comes to mind.
But beauty is my number one bag, so here are my current favourite picks for green and groovy products that will not only make you feel gorgeous, but will make Mother Nature love you, too. Bonus? All of these products are cruelty-free, too, because our animal friends are a hugely important part of the planet, too!
Davines OI All In One Milk ($15, davines.com)
Yes, Davines wants to give you beautiful hair, but they want to do it sustainably, too. Relying on the wind, sun, water and soil to power their operations, it's extremely important to them to lower their carbon dioxide emissions as much as possible. The OI All In One Milk is one of my favourite post-washing products. Spritzed on to damp hair, it detangles, protects, softens, smoothes and gives shine,
Rahua Voluminous Shampoo ($32, rodales.com)
This paraben- and sulfate-free formula's star ingredient is rahua oil, collected by women from the Quechua-Shuar tribes of the Amazon rainforest for years to give them strong, shiny and healthy hair. The ingredient is sustainably farmed in partnership with the inhabitants of the local tribes and processed using their traditional methods. The shampoo leaves my hair perfectly clean of any product buildup (I use a lot of styling products ...) yet so, so soft, and encourages my natural curls to come out of hiding.
RMS "Un" Cover-Up ($36) and Living Luminizer ($38, both rodales.com)
After finding herself incredibly ill with a diagnosis of having high levels of metal in her blood, makeup artist Rose-Marie Swift set out to create a line that was high-performance and healthy. Formulated with organic, non-GMO ingredients I can pronounce and houses in recyclable glass pots, these products are kind to the environment, your body, and your face. The "Un" Cover-up is buildable, meaning I can apply all over for a sheer wash of colour-correction, or layer it up to hide a chin breakout. And the Living Luminizer is my holy grail of highlighters, creating a dewy, lit-from-within finish that isn't freakishly sparkly.
Tata Harper Moisturizing Mask ($110, tataharper.com)
I love Tata's products, because they're no B.S. Every ingredient that goes into each formula has a purpose and works toward making your skin better and healthier. There are no pointless fillers thrown in -- just reliable ingredients harvested from her Vermont farm, ingredients that deliver results.
My incredibly dehydrated skin survived this past winter thanks to my favourite Tata product, the Moisturizing Mask. When my face gets flaky and tight, I apply a thick layer of this nectar before bed and let it sink in overnight. When I wake up, my skin is plump, dewy and soft to the touch thanks to Hyaluronic Acid, tamanu oil and soothing calendula and arnica.
May Lindstrom "The Problem Solver" Correcting Mask ($90, rodales.com)
While I keep my skin hydrated with the above, I'm still prone to the occasional hormonal breakout along my jawline. To give my skin a thorough yet gentle clean-out and scare away blemishes, I rely on 'The Problem Solver' Correcting Mask from May Lindstrom.
This organic powder mask, handcrafted in small batches in May's L.A. studio, activates into a mousse-like paste when you add water or May's "Honey Mud," combines clays, purifying charcoal powder and turmeric, and warming ingredients like cinnamon and clove that tingle as they invigorate. You can use it as a spot treatment on stubborn zits or all over to give yourself a happy glow.

To Buyer, With Love Seat
More Sellers Throw in Towel -- And Rest of the Furnishings; Bed, Bureau and Beyond
When Philip Shapiro went shopping for a second home on Miami's La Gorce Island a few months ago, he found a house he called a "home run." It wasn't just that the Spanish-style three-bedroom had a pool and palm trees, or that the seller was pop singer Shakira -- but that it was filled with great furniture, from chairs by Dakota Jackson and Mies van der Rohe to designer Italian sofas and tables, with a sprawling white shag rug.
"I could never put that thing together in a million years," says the 43-year-old...

This happens in Atlanta every year, and it's probably one of the best ways to get a taste of some up and coming artists around the area you don't already know about. What is it? Why, it's Open Mic Madness! I've been the past three years, and it's always a fun week of, well, madness, hence the name. Put on by Josh Rifkind (the same genius behind 500 Songs for Kids), the contest will take place at Smith's Olde Bar (admittedly my fav local venue) August 13-18.
Mr. Rifkind emailed me earlier this evening asking for my services as a judge, which I will gladly do again seeing as I had a blast doing it last year. He also informed me that he's still taking submissions from bands and solo artists. Which means that if you're not savvy on the music front, you can still send him your stuff. So, go do it! (I'll make it easy for you...here's the link to submit.)
In case you need some kind of prompting, the 2003 winners were the Whigs, and uh, unless you've been under a rock, you know that they've been featured in Rolling Stone and got a pretty sweet record deal recently. And I'll attest to the fact that this is how I first learned of the Futurists, who may not have won, but are still on the fast track to being famous with that awesome sound of theirs and their pretty little faces.

A massive gamechanger could be underway if Google plans to move forward with their new gaming console, codenamed, Yeti.
In a market currently dominated by Sony and Microsoft (sorry Nintendo), adding the king of the internet into the mix could really shake things up.
What To Look Forward To
The plan is to start with a newly developed game-streaming service with the possibility of moving on to the physical console. Yeti will also use faster internet in order to carry the service beginning in 2018. Google's gaming service will be similar to that of PlayStation Now; it will use the Netflix concept of streaming titles exclusively online alongside a subscription.
Reportedly, former Playstation and Xbox executive Phil Harrison will be leading the charge on this venture, tweeting out, "Excited to be able to share that today I've started a new role as Vice President and GM of Google – and relocation (back) to California."
Originally due to launch in 2017, according to The Information, though it wound up pushed back for unknown reasons. With this kind of development, Google could host games using cloud services while significantly reducing the need for a powerhouse PC to retrieve the data.
What I Think About the "Yeti" Project
I'm pretty stoked about the possibilities Yeti can bring but Google has tried its luck in the gaming market before. There was the Nexus Q in 2012 and Nexus player in 2014. Both were capable of playing games and even came with optional gamepads. However, these systems were mobile and lacked the power and graphical capabilities that a true gaming console would possess.
Here's to hoping that Google's commitment won't waver and the results are on par or better than the current competition. So long as they prioritize streaming, multiplayer, and maintain an AAA lineup to choose from, then I think it can contend with the big boys. Nowadays, gaming is a service after all.
