Naya Rivera And Big Sean Call Off Engagement
After many accusations and rumors circulating about the possible cause for the split, Big Sean's rep has now released a statement obtained by E! News.
"After careful thought and much consideration, Sean has made the difficult decision to call the wedding off. The recent rumors and accusations reported by so-called or fake sources are simply untrue. Sean wishes Naya nothing but the best and it is still his hope that they can continue to work through their issues privately. We will not be commenting again on this matter."
This statement comes after Star! Magazine claimed that Big Sean had cheated on Rivera. E! News states Rivera was seen without her engagement ring at the Marie Claire Fresh Faces event in Los Angeles.
Rivera and Big Sean announced their engagement in October, just six months after they officially became a couple, according to Perez Hilton.
Perez Hilton also wrote that the two celebrities aren't following each other on Twitter anymore - which is where the couple apparently met.

Swing, Shoot, Save
- Updated: 11/24/2016
Through many seasons of hard work and devotion to athletics, Senior Taylor French deserves recognition for her outstanding accomplishments. This three sport athlete knows how to work hard and be great, but she has also developed humility.
Her year of sports starts off in the fall, where she picks up a club and starts swinging away. Taylor has been playing golf ever since she was little. She started playing competitively in 7th grade, and ever since, she has loved every second of it.
"Golf is never boring for me. I love it and have so much fun playing it," said French.
Taylor has the second lowest 18-hole score in the region with a 78 shot at Crown Pointe. In her best match on a 9-hole course, she shot a 38. French continues to impress, placing 14th at State and receiving an All-State Title her second consecutive year.
"I love being able to achieve things like the all state team. It's a completely different experience than winning a match because these girls are the best of the best at state, and it's really humbling to be able to play with them," said French.
Being a successful three-sport athlete can be stressful, but French seems to have no problem with it.
Although she excels the most on a golf course, French recognizes the importance of having balance in her life. By playing 3 sports instead of solely focusing on one, she maintains that balance. By having variety, Taylor prevents herself from getting burnt out on one sport.
During the winter, Taylor moves indoors where she is a guard/post on the Westminster Girls Varsity Basketball team. She leads by example and has fun doing it. Taylor brings a light-hearted attitude to the team, while also working hard and pushing herself.
Taylor trades the gym again for the outdoors in the spring, where she excels as a starting Varsity goalie on the Westminster Girls Varsity soccer team.
Although French leaves golf behind for awhile during the school year, she seems to always come back to it.
"[Golf season] is probably my favorite season out of the three that I play, not only because I love the sport, but because I love the people," said French.
Taylor loves her teammates as much as she loves actually playing.
"The golf team is so much fun and I love everyone on the team so much. They are all so fun and full of life which makes playing with them so great."
French's teammates feel the exact same way about her.
"I have had such a fun time these past three years playing with Taylor. She knows so much about golf and it's great because I learn so much while playing with her," said French's golf partner, Junior Macie Daniels.
Taylor makes others feel good and makes everything that she is a part of fun. She works hard and realizes the importance of her role on each team she is on, and does her best to succeed, while also helping her teammates succeed as well.
Whether swinging a club, shooting a ball, or protecting the goal, French can always be relied on by her teammates and coaches to get the job done.

The Qualities All Creative People Share

UK Internet Marketing Training - London, Manchester & Portsmouth
August 30, 2012
Webinars are excellent ways to launch a new product or service. They can also be used to bring new life to an existing product or service, presenting it in a way that captures people's interest and makes it hot again. For evergreen products or services, a recorded webinar can be posted to YouTube and continue to inform and convert potential customers for years to come.
There are some key points to keep in mind when creating a webinar to create a webinar that will wow your audience, to have them buying your product or telling their friends about it. Failure to follow these guidelines will result in a webinar that unlikely to move your audience to action, and that will sink into obscurity moments after it is launched.
First, you must be able to both define and reach your audience. Say that your ideal audience is shopkeepers. Is there a way to reach all of the shopkeepers in the UK? Not easily. However, if you define your audience more narrowly, for example shopkeepers in a single city, there is probably an organization that they belong to which would allow you to reach most if not all of them. Be careful of how much you narrow the audience. If you have to restrict your audience to a very tiny segment of your potential customer base in order to be able to reach them, make sure that the size of the audience still warrants a webinar. For example, you may want to narrow the audience to shopkeepers in a specific city so that you can reach them, but keep the presentation general enough that you can later present it to shopkeepers in different cities.
Once you know your audience, determine what topics will prove valuable to them. Ideally, you can string a number of different topics together into a series. This will build upon the audience of the first webinar, and get them excited to attend the next webinar. Of course, it relies upon you actually delivering upon your promised value.
Start as you mean to go on. Do not start with a low-cost webinar provider if it has a limit to the number of attendees and quirky formatting. At some point, your series of webinars will outgrow the service, and it will cause you many headaches to transfer to a new service. Look for something that can be scaled up as your audience grows.
Incorporate email marketing with your webinars, first to drive attendance, and after the webinar, to convert attendees into customers. If necessary, partner with another firm that has a larger email list to try and gain your first attendees. Capture attendees email addresses by making them register for the webinar, and then follow up with drip mail campaigns until they convert.

Decreed by the Government, no less!
Real 'refugees'? White South Africans facing genocide
Puma ByDesign Race Relations, Wall of Shame, World
As not reported by the Communist media complex because they could care less, the victims are White South Africans, mostly farmers and as the world is pretends not to notice, White genocide is taking place in South Africa. The crimes are so horrific, the cries of the victims are so loud and blood curdling, HOW can world leaders not hear them? White South Africans are suffering. The families of White South Africans are being ripped apart and their livelihoods stolen as they are run off their land.
White South Africans cannot sleep at night for fear that they will be raped and slaughtered in their beds.
White South Africans are dying horrible deaths. They are the refugees that no one cares to discuss.
I often refer to the war against the Boer as a gift from Nelson Mandela. Mandela was a Marxist ideologue whose policies (if you could call it that) failed and were devastating to those who did not fall in line and to the White South African.
From WND by Liam Clancy
Since the 1990s, between 2,000 and 4,000 farmers have been murdered.
White South African farmers are several times more likely to be killed than South African police officers or even American soldiers serving in Iraq.
"Often, they only count the farmer and not his wife and children that were also attacked or murdered," South African missionary Charl Van Wyk told WND in an interview.
The omission is intentional "manipulation" of the data by the South African government, and such subterfuge makes it impossible to know the true extent of the attacks on white South African farmers, he said.
The sheer brutality of the murders cannot be overstated. Farmers are often tortured before being killed. One white South African woman was tied up, stabbed and burned with a blowtorch.
Other reports of the torture of white farmers include rape and attacks with power drills, boiling water and hot irons[…]

Fish in the Boat, Cougar Robotics, and Monkey Madness are crowned World Champions.
It still hasn't hit. We did this thing. I can say that I am a world champion. There was one time in fifth grade where I took part in a trivia contest at the library. I came in fourth and later complained that I never won anything. That, my little ten year old self, is no longer true. An the thing I love about FIRST is that you aim to compete with teams at their best and I feel like your job and your goal should be to help teams get to their best. You talk to people and make connections. It's not just running around a field trying to score - don't get me wrong, I love lacrosse - it's making sure everyone is learning everything they can, meeting everyone they can, networking with everyone they can, and meeting others who spend their time in similar ways you do - expanding the new knowledge to everybody else . This is FIRST. This is my life. I wouldn't trade it for the world. ~ Erin

Melbourne Airport – EPMLive WorkEngine Implementation
Melbourne Airport operates the Melbourne International Airport and Launceston Airport under a long term lease from the Australian Government. The organisation has a significant ongoing and growing capital program of work to address the changing needs of travellers, carriers, retailers, authorities and others.
In addressing the increase in planned capital expenditure, Melbourne Airport has undertaken a program to "Grow Project Management Capability". The program acknowledges the need to address process, toolsets and people. It also identified the need to address capability across project management, sponsor and executive management communities.
Core Consulting Group (CCG) was selected to support Melbourne Airport in this program through the Development of Project Management Practice, the Implementation of EPMLive WorkEngine (toolset) and the delivery of training.
CCG led Melbourne Airport through a refinement of their existing delivery methodology and delivered the result through a user friendly online user interface. The result of this is that all projects at Melbourne Airport have adopted a common approach and a common language to delivering projects. This was underpinned by the design, configuration and implementation of an EPMLive WorkEngine to enable project data to be stored and analysed under a common framework. These two engagements were supported by both Instructor Lead and Electronic Online Training modules to support the organisational change.
Melbourne Airport have benefited from an efficient and effective engagement that has provided significant value for a modest spend.

Making the Good Life LastBook - 2003
F. Scott Fitzgerald's famous observation that "there are no second acts in American lives" only goes to show that he never met Merv Griffin, whose life is proof positive that not only can you have a smashing second act, but that a brilliant third act is quite possible as well.
"Merv: Making the Good Life Last" is the quintessential Horatio Alger story of a young man born into modest circumstances who, through hard work, unshakable self-confidence, and an unfailingly positive attitude, dreams his way to the top.
And then he retires and does it again.
Now, at seventy-seven, he is doing it still, reinventing himself and his life in new and extraordinary ways, and enjoying it more than ever.
For millions of Americans, the life of Merv Griffin "defines" success -- a life lived first on stages all over the world as a band s

Bag balm. We have a love hate relationship. It's an AMAZING ointment to use for baby bottoms (it's official use is for milking cows, but whatever). Seriously. My sister-in-law first told me about it when she had my nephew 11 years ago and we've been believers ever since. The stuff will fix diaper rash in no time. It's not exactly great smelling, but it gets the job done. And when you're dealing with a raw baby bottom, anything is worth a shot. The trick with bag balm, aside from its ability to moisturize, is that it is a protectant for the skin. So it is really hard to get off. You can wipe away the excess, sure. But just know there will be a little coating protecting that lovely epidermis of yours for a few more wipes or washings. It's great. No need to reapply multiple times.
That's where the love story ends however. Our first battle was several years ago when our sweet Aden was about 3 years old. He had the most adorable, fluffy, big curls ever. They were thick and fine and they fit his personality just perfect.
Aden decided that Bag Balm apparently looked like a "hair cream" and managed to wipe half a can into his delightful hair before we saw what was happening. Oh. My. Goodness. I didn't know what was worse at first: the fact he had it in his hair or I would have to get it all over my hands just to get it out (as opposed to using baby wipes or a Q-Tip on their bottoms). I mean, what's a little extra moisture in his hair? Especially compared to having antiseptic smelling hands for a week? It couldn't be that bad right? Oh, it was. There was NO way out.
First, we scraped. That got the large chunks out, but it also mushed the remnants into his hair even more. We tried shampoo. Nope. We tried dish soap. That's supposed to cut grease right? Nope. We tried homemade concoctions we found online. Nothing. Not a single thing was working to get that layer of grease out of his hair. So, the final option, a haircut. I was devastated and Aden, of course after being practically water boarded trying to get the stuff out of his hair, was not about to sit for a haircut. It took some patience, but my little innocent, sweet toddler went from his sweet 3 year old self to a small child after that haircut. He just looked so much older! And, it still took a good week to get that last layer of grease out.
At the risk of totally humiliating myself, here is the rest of the story. Bag Balm and I stayed on speaking terms but had grown apart as the big boys were out of diapers and we thankfully didn't have a lot of intestinal bugs. Well, until recently. Thankfully the most recent episode wasn't as traumatizing as the first (at least not yet I hope). You see, it works great on babies, but really, it works great on all ages. When the big boys get a bug where they're wiping a lot and it's getting uncomfortable, we bust out the Bag Balm. Same with the adults. And recently, it had hit me. I don't have the time to sit in a nice warm tub for hours on end (as much as I would like to), so we move to option B- option Bag Balm. Well, of course that day I had errands to run and quite honestly, I have about 2 options for clothing right now- maternity yoga pants and work pants. So, I opted for the comfy route (the yoga pants if you were wondering) and headed to the store. I wandered around Target, enjoying a rare moment at the store by myself, in no huge rush to get back. The bum was feeling better so why not take my time right? Well, I get home and we're unloading groceries and hubs says, "Hey, you have a grease mark on the bottom of your pants". I figure it's just from chapstick someone left in the dryer. I look in the mirror. Nope. Not. At. All. I had a dark, wide, and quite obvious mark up the seam of the pants, basically covering the crack. I either had the sweatiest crack ever for a cool October day or had wet my pants and it had traveled up the seam. Nice. And, to make matters worse, it was a rare day where I was wearing a maternity shirt that didn't cover my butt. So, the entire time I was at the store, I was walking around with my grease mark hanging out. That's where it could get worse, I suppose. Maybe someone took a picture of me, unknowingly, and will post it online. Heck, maybe it's already out there. So if you see it, just let me know. I want to be able to at least benefit from whatever ad money they're making!
At the end of the day, I know I won't break up with Bag Balm. Not with another little one on the way and one still in diapers. It's too valuable not to have around. I just need to remember to keep my bum covered!

There are many reasons why Utah homeowners get behind on their mortgages. The important thing to remember is that virtually any Utah foreclosure situation can be resolved with the right resources.
A short sale in Utah is when a house is sold for less than the amount due on the mortgage. Short sales are considered under certain conditions, and usually only come about as an option when it is clear to a lender that the full value of the mortgage will not or cannot be recovered.
In addition to the lender, there are typically other parties involved which may include the IRS, utility companies, state and county assessors, creditors, and others who are owed money and may have encumbered the property by placing a lien on title.
Extenuating circumstances influence whether or not banks will discount a loan balance. These circumstances are usually related to the current real estate market climate in Utah and the individual borrower's financial situation as well as the negotiating powers of the person negotiating your short sale. Law firms can add credibility, because the lenders/servicers may be worried about the threat that attorneys have.
Law Offices of Ryan E. Simpson, P.C. has considerable experience in handling these complex real estate matters and has successfully negotiated and facilitated numerous short sales. We will perform the following services as applicable to your situation:
Should you have any questions about the services we provide or would like to begin working with Law Offices of Ryan E. Simpson, P.C., please contact us by phone at (801) 432-8682 or by email.

Alberta has one of the lowest numbers of registered organ and tissue donors in the country. In fact, donor rates have dropped by 40 per cent over the past decade. That means hundreds of Albertans are waiting for organ and tissue donations in order to improve their lives, or even save them. And donations from just one person could save up to eight lives, and bring a better quality of life for up to 75 more.
We're working with the province to help turn that decrease in donors around.
Making Organ Donation Easier
Earlier this month, we were honoured to host Minister of Health, Fred Horne and Minister of Service Alberta, Doug Griffiths at a news conference in one of our Edmonton AMA centres to launch the new Alberta Organ and Tissue Donation Registry. The Ministers, along with Don Smitten, the president of AMA, spoke to media about the new service, after which Minister Griffiths stepped up to our registry counter to be the first one to register his consent.
"By letting Albertans register their consent to donate at registry offices, we expect to increase donation rates in Alberta," Minister Griffiths said. "By the end of June, about half of registry agents will be on board, and all registries can provide the service before next April."
How to Register for Organ Donation
AMA is one of the first registries in the province to offer this important service. Now, when you come in to apply for or renew your driver's licence or ID card, you'll be able to register your intent and give consent to become an organ or tissue donor. The consent and your renewal or application is done at the same time at no cost.
You can learn more about the program in this news release from the Government of Alberta. Over 4,100 Albertans have already registered to become donors since the launch of the Alberta Organ and Tissue Donation Registry in April.

...seems to be about the unbending, hard nature of the masculine "metal faced boy". This is a side of one person (himself, perhaps) but any person will do, really. The masculine being the objective self commiserating with the internal, soft, feminine/subjective self. In this case I believe it's a self-referential statement about Bowie's difficult times when "extracting the subjective/psychodelicate" from his mind with chemical means and how this wrought "hard punishment" upon his body. If anyone has experienced a placid mind though constant meditative practice as did Bowie (or in my own case, the placid and boring nature of a mind that is balanced by Chinese Medicine...or in Bowie's case a mind that is boring because he's drained all his neurochemicals through drug-use leaving him on the crash/burn side of the trip (see "Always Crashing In the Same Car"). "Left him nearly out of his mind" is about his difficulties with drug-use...it gained him much by way of creative/human insight but almost took away his sanity.
"Hope I'm wrong but I know" is a reference to this idea that he hopes his view of the world is wrong because it contains no afterlife. "But I know" speaks of his certainty of this worldview.
"But it makes me sad / so I'll dance my life away" is his understanding of the inevitable arrival of death and his fall into oblivion and so he dances while he can. This ties into the larger paragraph I referenced above which ends with:
"They're people I know
People I love
They seem so unhappy
Dead or alive"
He's found a way of making the best of his situation in the face of this tragic, universal demise to come. Some may not take him seriously for staying in the world of fantasy/subjective but it's how he deals with it all...he's "happy" or at least aware, but there are so many that aren't happy/content ("with coping method").
A million dreams (childhood)
A million scars (adulthood)
A million, A million ("years" is implied... a phrase which equals "infinity" or "oblivion")
These three are the choices: you can dream, you can complain, or you can die... but you will eventually die... so why not make the best of it and enjoy your time; be happy, son!
Touching song with a hint of the straining air that surrounds confronting your mortality and how to approach that final period.
"these pieces are broken"... no idea other than it might reference a shattered "metal faceboy"... the body will fail in your attempts to squeeze the juice of life out of it... realize that there is an negative for every great positive... that obtaining the subjective costs an objective price.... and avoiding this will leave you as nothing BUT a "metalfaced boy" that is unhappy "dead or alive".
Hope you've enjoyed my rambling style. It saves me time.

Personal bankruptcy is a debt resolution thousands of people in Florida and around the country have used in order to get their finances in order. But, even though the process is rather common, many consumers still approach bankruptcy hesitantly amid fears that their credit will be destroyed if they file. However, this is not always the case, especially when filers make a conscientious effort to improve their credit afterwards. For example, consumers who have successfully exited Chapter 13 bankruptcy typically become eligible again for Federal Housing Administration mortgages just one year later. With a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, it's two years. And while with more conventional providers the wait could be extended, the point is that ineligibility is not necessarily forever.
Credit repair and loan eligibility possible after bankruptcy
Developer of Palm Beach mansion files for Chapter 11 bankruptcy
In 2007, more than a year before the real estate market was rocked by the recession, an island developer corporation set to work building a Palm Beach mansion. Now, five years later, the 27,000 square foot home on 2.5 acres of lakefront property sits vacant. The limited liability company, which is controlled by the developer corporation, recently filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
Olympic athlete files for Chapter 7 bankruptcy
Anyone can run into their fair share of financial difficulties, including an Olympic gold winner medalist. Take for example Rulon Gardner, the wrestler who in 2000 beat an undefeated heavyweight class wrestler from Russia. The next year, Gardner even won the world title in Greco-Roman wrestling.
Florida condo highlights short sale, foreclosure, complications
When it comes to being in default on mortgage payments, not only is there the fear of possibly losing the home to foreclosure, but the entire process to try and hold on to that home can be quite frustrating and complicated. In fact, the complications that have cropped up in the past are even more proof of just how dysfunctional the current mortgage market is in the U.S.
Securing a mortgage after bankruptcy
We have written many posts in this blog about individuals who have resolved their financial issues through a bankruptcy filing. But what happens after a Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy is complete? Many believe that they do not have any options when it comes to either purchasing residential property or refinancing an existing loan. This however, is not always true.
Employees lose job with furniture company bankruptcy
With the current economy we tend to focus on the companies that have had to file for bankruptcy due to financial struggles. Of course this is hard for the owners, many times having to shut down a business they had run for years and years. But, along those same lines it's also important to keep in mind that there are the people who have worked at these businesses. Often, after the business bankruptcy they find themselves trying to find a new job, which -- again due to the economy -- isn't always easy.
Football coach hopes to repay debts with Chapter 13 bankruptcy
A Chapter 13 bankruptcy allows for an individual or sole proprietor with unmanageable debts to create a repayment plan over the next three to five years to pay back creditors. Typically, this type of plan is attractive to many as it allows for a person to overcome their debt burden without having to forfeit assets to creditors.
Florida homeowners continue to face foreclosure fears
Realizing that you simply cannot afford to keep up with mortgage payments is hard. There's the worry of just what is going to happen and where you are going to live, and for some, a certain amount of shame realizing that you may end up losing your home.
The Federal Nature of Bankruptcy Law
All bankruptcy cases are filed in Federal Bankruptcy Court. Article I Section 8 of the United States Constitution grants the federal government exclusive right to enact laws pertaining to bankruptcy. Therefore the States are prohibited from enacting there own bankruptcy laws.

This post builds on the post Physics for travelers. Passengers are travelers or riders with a specific destination.
In a way passengers are passive; they just sit as a vehicle takes them where they want to go. But that comes after they entered the vehicle, which comes after they accepted a ride or bought a ticket, which comes after they decided to go on a trip, which comes after they chose a destination. There's much activity before (and after) a passenger sits.
A passenger may decide to operate a vehicle themselves as the biker, the driver, the pilot. Even then they are passengers first and operators second, unless they are in the transportation business.
The passenger perspective may be explained by the four causal factors: (1) the passenger determines the destination of their trip; (2) the passenger decides on the mode and manner of their trip; (3) the passenger decides on the means of their trip, such as which route and vehicle; (4) the passenger decides the who and when and what of the trip.
The destination is a place that is different from the place where the passenger begins. Children who sit in a car and pretend they are going somewhere are not passengers. Passengers first need is a destination.
The physics of most interest to passengers is not the physics of an engine or of someone else's transport but of their own transport to their own destination. That is, the physics of most interest is the physics of closing the gap between them and their destination. Passengers begin with a positive distance between them and their destination, which they want reduced to nothing.
Consequently, the independent variable for passengers is a distance, not a time interval. Time is always a dependent variable for passengers. This differs from the physics of scientists and engineers for whom time is the independent variable as they observe and design things in motion.
This leads to the rate of motion for passengers being measured in the amount of time taken (duration) per unit of length traversed. This is called the pace in racing, in which the travel time is minimized. Passengers may be in a race, or may simply have a deadline for reaching their destination. A slower pace means a larger amount of time passing per unit distance. A faster pace means a smaller amount of time passing per unit distance.
What about the increase or decrease in the rate of motion? For passengers this is a change in the pace toward either a faster or slower pace. A slow pace getting slower means an increasingly large amount of time passing per unit distance. A fast pace getting faster means a decreasingly small amount of time passing per unit distance. That is, rate of change of the rate of change is the change of pace distance over which the change is measured.
Consider a passenger on a trip with several signposts that are equally spaced (to make it simple). One can measure the time it takes to pass each signpost and determine whether the time is getting larger or smaller. The independent variable is again the travel distance but it covers the distance of the two paces. The faster the change in pace, the smaller the amount of time per unit distance. The slower the change in pace, the larger the amount of time per unit distance.
The background to these measures is that the passenger would like arrive instantly at their destination, so any time passing until their arrival is viewed adversely. Larger numbers mean slower movements. Smaller numbers mean faster movements. This is the opposite to thinking that larger numbers mean faster movements.
Expedience means the pace value is declining, which means motion will go faster (cf. acceleration). De-expedience is the negative of expedience; it means the pace value is increasing so motion will go slower (cf. deceleration). Expedite means to lower the pace value (i.e., go faster). De-expedite means to raise the pace value (i.e., go slower).

5 Quick Things I Learned from Boustead Singapore's EGM 2015
I've attended all of Boustead's AGMs since being a shareholder for close to five years now. Without fail, shareholders in the AGM will always question how management will unlock the value of Boustead.
Recently, Boustead announced a proposed demerger (a spin-off) of their real estate solution business to unlock shareholder value through issuance of dividend in specie. Therefore, if the transaction is completed, Boustead will own 51% of the newly listed company called Boustead Projects Limited (BPL) while the rest of the entitled shareholders own the remaining 49%.
I attended Boustead's EGM regarding the proposed demerger and here are some of the insights during the EGM:
5 Quick Things I Learned from Boustead Singapore's EGM 2015
- Demerger is part of the succession plan. BPL will have more autonomy to move on its own with less constraints reporting to Boustead's board. Hence, with this in place, BPL is able to make decisions faster making them more competitive as its marketplace is changing very fast.
- Properties held for sale and investment properties stated in the financial statement are based on historical cost. Boustead does not revalue their properties because they do not want the revaluation to cause their profits to fluctuate with market prices. The historical cost of the property value stated on the balance sheet is approximately S$162.5 million. A 3rd-party independent valuation of the same properties is approximately S$367.8 million. Hence, the book value of Boustead is understated due to their conservative approach in accounting.
- Currently, BPL is facing some industry headwinds. The Singapore property market is not as buoyant as before. BPL is facing stiff competitions for their construction and lease back projects, which may see margins affected in the near future. BPL recently expanded out of Singapore into Iskandar, Malaysia with reasonable penetration success.
- BPL's investment properties may see positive rental reversion in the future. Most of the properties are built for single tenants specific to their needs. Mr. Wong, CEO of Boustead, feels that BPL has room for rent increases in the near future as rental prices now are below the current market rates.
- Boustead will not spin off its geo-spatial business segment at the moment. Wong feels that the geo-spatial business balance sheet is not mature yet but mentioned that the business may have the chance to spin off in the future if it grows to a size where it can stand on its own.

Product characteristics
No company in businesses produces anything. In other words, every company in the world has a specific purpose in terms of the kind of goods to be produced and marketed. It is however important to note that different products have unique compatibility with internet marketing. There are those which are very easy to deal with using online marketing whereas others are not convenient.
Many business experts believe that the compatibility of a product to be marketed online depends on the ability of customers to determine its quality online. According to De Figueiredo (2000), there are products whose cannot be exactly determined in a digital environment by customers hence making it hard to adopt internet marketing. It is therefore important for any company to consider the characteristics of its products before introducing it to e-marketing. Many people around the world concur that purchasing decisions greatly depend on the characteristics of products and varying consumer models which are quite diverse. To add on, online stores carry properties of products which are fundamentally different from traditionally stored products. Many customers prefer purchasing products which maximally satisfy their needs through perceived qualities observed from the internet.
According to Haque et al., (2006), human senses play a significant role in decision making including selection of products from the internet. As a result, products which require tangible interaction may not be considered by customers who prefer shopping from the internet. Based on this factor, the banking industry stands performs better with internet marketing compared to other companies like those dealing with automobiles. Tangible goods also require delivery services which may not be possible with immediate effect due to other logistics which have to be followed. This can only be done offline where the customer has to visit the company or be offered door-step service delivery. This indicates that intangible products completely fit in an online marketing environment. It can therefore conclusively be drawn that intangibility is a major factor that needs to be considered in adopting internet marketing for any company.

Noradrenergic agents are medications that regulate levels of a neurotransmitter called noradrenaline in the body.
Noradrenergic agents used to treat people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) include antidepressants, medications for high blood pressure, and medications to improve attention.
Noradrenergic agents are typically used for people suffering anxiety, depression or high blood pressure.
In people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), noradrenergic agents are used to reduce anxiety, depression, hyperactivity, irritability, aggression and self-harming behaviour.
The first trials of noradrenergic agents for people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) were conducted in the early 1990s.
In our bodies, the noradrenergic system is responsible for producing, storing and releasing noradrenaline, which activates the fight or flight response. The idea is that autistic characteristics are the result of problems in this system.
Noradrenergic agents regulate the noradrenergic system. They can therefore help reduce anxiety, depression, hyperactivity, irritability, aggression and self-harming behaviour in people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
This therapy involves taking oral medication on a daily basis. The specific medication and dosage depends on each child's symptoms.
A specialist medical practitioner like a psychiatrist should monitor the child receiving the medication. The child needs regular appointments with this specialist.
The cost of this therapy varies depending on the brand of drug used, whether the drug is covered by the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS), the drug dose or strength, and whether you hold a concession card like a Health Care Card.
This therapy has not yet been rated.
These medications have some side effects. They include the possibility of developing a tolerance, which would mean increasing the dosage. Other possible side effects include drowsiness and high blood pressure when the person stops taking the medication.
A GP, paediatrician or psychiatrist can prescribe noradrenergic agents. These professionals can also give you information about the potential benefits and risks of using noradrenergic agents.
If your child is taking noradrenergic agents, you need to ensure that your child takes the medication on a daily basis. Your child's specific medication and dosage will depend on her symptoms.
You also need to watch your child for effects and side effects and take your child to regular appointments with the specialist who's supervising his treatment.
Your GP, paediatrician or psychiatrist can prescribe this medication.
You can find a child psychiatrist by going to Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists – Find a psychiatrist.
You could also talk about this therapy with your NDIA planner, NDIS early childhood partner or NDIS local area coordination partner, if you have one.

Max Eitingon died in August 1943, 10 years after the inception of the "Chevra Psychoanalytic Be'Israel" (CPI).
To commemorate his death the members of the society published a book "In Memoriam".
The first part is devoted to Eitingon his deeds and contributions. The Second part of the book consists of theoretical papers.
The wide range of the contributors includes: M. Narkis, director of Bezalel, at the time the Israel national museum; the author M. Smelianski; Henrietta Szold, the founder of the Youth Aliya; M. Klausner, founder of Herzelia film studios; and Nobel laureate writer S.Y Agnon, who wrote a special short story for the occasion. The book represents the times of its writing and is written in three languages: German (the main language of the society), Hebrew and English.
Two links to book chapters follow: In Memoriam by Mosche Wulff, who was the president of the society after Eitingon for 10 years and honorary president thereafter.
The second chapter is a summary by Margarete Brandt of the state of the society 10 years after its founding.
Margaret Brandt was the secretary of the society for 10 years. She hosted the institute and the policlinic in her home, which she bequeathed to the society and still serves as the physical home of the society.
These two chapters bring to life the spirit of the time, the enthusiasm of the pioneers as well as the hardships, the ethics of the policlinic and the commitment of the pioneers to the psychoanalytic movement.
Especially impressive is the diagnostic list of 232 patients in the 10 years and the statistics of treatment outcome.
We can see the involvement of the small group in the dissemination of psychoanalysis and its teaching, and the importance given to its transmission to educators, teachers and kindergarten teachers (Heil pädagogen).

Is there a Nesski monster in Russian Lake Labynkyr?
Siberia has its own 'Loch Ness Monster' in the vast and mysterious Lake Labynkyr. Just like Nessie, the Siberian monster was photographed from a long distance and there were local rumors and myths about Nesski for a long time. But there is more. Recently, scientific reports based on measurements with scanners speak of a 'thing' of 10 meters long. These measurements were performed by respected Russian scientists. Will Nesski equally lure curious tourists to Siberia as Nessie to the Scottish Highlands?
Lake Labynkyr monster photo
Paying a visit to this new tourist attraction is an adventure on its own. Lake Labynkyr is a remote lake in the far North-East region of Siberia. It's not far from Omymyakon, the coldest inhabited settlement on the planet. Astonishingly, the 80m deep lake does not freeze over completely in winter, in contrast to all other lakes in the region. The ice that does form can be too thin to walk on. It is not uncommon to drive cars on lakes in Yakutia in winter: but not on Lake Labynkyr. One theory is that Labynkyr is warmed slightly from below by a fissure in the Earth's crust.
Lake Labynkyr
Local monster rumors
The legend of the monster lives for many centuries among the natives: the Evenk and Yakut know of many appearances of Nesski. In the nineteenth century it was known as "The Devil". A testimony from that time talks about a monster with huge jaws.
More recently, fishermen said that during quiet weather when there were no disturbances in the lake, some strange waves were coming from under the water, heavily shaking their boats. As if a big body was moving under water and producing waves which reached the surface and shook the vessel.
Two others were fishing in the middle of the lake in a 10 meter long boat when suddenly the bow began to rise as if somebody was pushing it from under the water. The fishermen were stuck by fear but did not see anything.
Lake Labynkyr
scientific evidence
The legend, and the many sightings also made scientists curious the past decades. A team of Professor Emeliyanova of the University of Moscow dropped down to Lake Labynkyr and came to startling findings. Using sonar scanners, they detected huge underwater objects. Readings told it was clearly a moving object and too big to be a fish. It was very homogeneous and swam just above the bottom of the lake. The researchers could not explain what it really was.
Another witness tells of a group of Russian geologists on a boat trip on the lake who saw a huge creature looming up out of the water. Even people on the shore saw the monster and called loudly to scare it away from the boat.
Lake Labynkyr
In 1953 the respected Soviet geologist Viktor Tverdokhlebov also discovered a monster on the neighboring Lake Vorota, but the Soviet authorities covered up the investigation. Now Professor Emeliyanova wants to investigate this phenomenon to the bottom. There is a theory that the two lakes are connected by tunnels. There are also speculations that the lake is home to prehistoric animals like ichthyosaurs, prehistoric marine reptiles who look like dolphins or sharks. Another theory is that the monster is possibly a plesiosaur with a long neck, just like the Scottish "Nessie".
"Personally, I really believe that something is going on," says Professor Emeliyanova. As local residents for so many years talk about the same strange creature, it just cannot be simply invented. It means that there really is something. Moreover, I know the people who live around the lake pretty good and they are not liars. As icing on the cake, the ancient stories of our Nesski are much older than that of Nessie, so they can't be influenced by the Scottish sightings."

Download Full Faculty Research Profile
Dr Chok's research interests lay at the intersection of entrepreneurship, strategy and the law, which he defines as a set of norms and rules to guide behavior. He is broadly interested in how formal and informal rules influence the institutional arrangements that connect for-profit firms with non-market entities such as governments, non-profit organizations, universities and communities. His current research explores this theme in the science-based industries with an emphasis on institutional arrangements such as the markets for know-how, the capital markets and the labor markets. In his research, Dr. Chok relates this theme both to important research topics in the fields of entrepreneurship, international business, innovation management, and strategy, as well as to the emerging economic sociology of law subfield - a sociological analysis of the role of rules and norms in economic life. He has published articles in Research Policy, Financial Management and PLOS ONE, among other publications.

Peter Jensen Fall 201017 Feb
Marc Jacobs Fall 201016 Feb
Over the past few seasons, Marc Jacobs has been very celebrity friendly to say the least. Movie stars on the front row and Spice Girls in campaigns has been the norm. But 2010 is a departure from the celebrity-friendly ways of seasons past. No singers, movie stars or celebrities were to be on the front row…even Andre Leon Talley was left standing! That wasn't the only surprise, the set was completely stripped bare, the show started with Marc Jacobs and Robert Duffy tearing back some brown paper to reveal the models clad mostly in pretty pastels, unusual for a Fall show. Stunning collection, I wasn't overly keen on some of the skirt lengths and oversize jumpers and jackets but there were some absolutely stunning looks.

NYFW – Wed 10th11 Sep
With all this free time, I've been thinking a lot and coming up with loads of random conclusions. Like the effect of the Internet on fashion. We're free to seek what we like, be it fashion week images or random vintage stores. I'm choosing the fashion week images that I want and I like, rather than what's going to get dictated to me via magazines. Saying that though, magazines still have their place, this month's Harper's is particularly amazing, it's an all black issue of a different kind, paying homage to the dark, Gothic mood that has fallen over fashion this Fall. Ok, so these conclusions aren't particularly deep, Jeremy Kyle, Laguna Beach and The Hills are as intellectual as my days get I'm afraid! But hey, at least I get to pour over fashion week images at my leisure 🙂 And here are my picks for today….

Education becomes a poll issue in SikkimApril 25th, 2009 - 8:16 pm ICT by ANI
By Tashi Pradhan
Gangtok (Sikkim), Apr 25 (ANI): Political parties have made education a key poll issue in Sikkim to woo young voters.
Youth in the age group of 19-29 years form 40 percent of the total 3,00,584 voters listed in the electoral rolls here.
Many voters want education in the state to improve so that they are not compelled to leave the state to acquire better education.
They stress on improvement of primary education.
"I think where the change has to take place is the primary education because there is where everything starts. There are lots of problems at the elementary level," said Jeewan Rai, a voter.
"Any government, which comes to power, has to address the problem of primary education. Once the issue is addressed everything will fall into place," Rai added.
Meanwhile, the ruling Sikkim Democratic Front (SDF) party is trying to lure the voters with assurance that the whole education system in Sikkim would be changed and brought to the world standards.
"After the completion of their (students) 10th, 10+2, graduation and post graduation, professional course will be given. We will assist them financially for pursuing higher education in international colleges and universities. Even in India, we will help them in getting good colleges and universities. We will revamp the education system in Sikkim and will professionalise it. When the education is at par with world standards, then only they can get world class job," said Bhim Dahal, general secretary of the (SDF) party.
Sikkim will go to polls in the third phase of elections on April 30.
The first and second phases of polling were held on April 16 and 23, the rest of the five-staged elections will be held on April 30 followed by May 7 and May 13. (ANI)
