As a core point guard, garage as well as other three split the difference is that they is the team mentor and organizer. In some other words, he can't be similar to novak on the perimeter around awaiting kevin durant shoes someone else to give him the ball. We take novak to a comparison, everything also - reference counted for people like us each a 3-pointer allows objects, and to time period, after statistics, novak found this season hit 3-pointers, 149, 146 is often a teammate's pass and struck; Three-point shots hit your second more this season Ryan - Anderson isn't any exception, he hit curry shoes with 213, has 206 will depend on your friend's passing.

Encompassing basic science research, animal studies and clinical trials in adult patients, the new grant focuses on a potential Achilles' heel in the human immunodeficiency virus: sites on immune cells known as neurokinin-1 receptors. In focusing on those sites, researchers hope to achieve a triple benefit: fighting HIV by blocking the virus from immune cells, improving innate immune function and reducing symptoms of depression that are associated with the disease.
Steven D. Douglas, M.D., professor of Pediatrics, chief of the Section of Immunology and director of Clinical Immunology Laboratories at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, is the principal investigator and program director of the new Integrated Preclinical/Clinical Program grant. Dr. Douglas oversees projects led by collaborators at four sites: Children's Hospital, the University of Pennsylvania, Tulane National Primate Research Center, and Seracare Bioservices, Inc.
The program project is entitled, "Neurokinin-1R (SP Receptor) Antagonists for HIV Therapy." NIMH, a member institute of the National Institutes of Health, issued the four-year, $6.7 million grant award this fall.
The grant builds on more than a decade of investigation by Dr. Douglas into substance P, a neurotransmitter long known to be active in the brain and nervous system. Dr. Douglas and colleagues discovered in 1997 that immune cells produce substance P and its receptor, neurokinin-1, and later showed that incubation with substance P raised HIV levels in immune cell cultures. They subsequently found that a compound that binds to the substance P receptor in immune cells inhibits HIV from entering its hiding place within immune cells.
That compound, from a class of agents called neurokinin-1 receptor antagonists, may represent a new type of anti-HIV therapy, due to its ability to block HIV replication. The new program project grant will allow researchers to explore the potential of neurokinin-1 receptor (NK-1R) antagonists in a variety of ways.
In addition to studying direct antiviral action, the researchers will also look for effects on behavior. Because NK-1R antagonists are known to have antidepressant properties, any evidence of reduced anxiety-related behavior in animals may suggest potential important benefits for human HIV patients as well.
The grant includes four separate projects. Projects 1 and 2, led by virologist Wen-Zhe Ho, M.D., of Children's Hospital, and Dr. Douglas, respectively, aim to better understand the underlying mechanisms behind anti-HIV activity of NK-1R antagonists. The basic science research will particularly examine how these agents affect HIV-infected immune cells and how they also might protect the brain. "We know that substance P plays an important role in both the immune system and the central nervous system," said Dr. Douglas, "and we are testing the hypothesis that interfering with substance P receptors may reduce neurological injury from HIV infection."
Project 3, led by Andrew A. Lackner, Ph.D., D.V.M., director of the Tulane National Primate Research Center, will test whether NK-1R antagonists are safe in animals infected with simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV), which is analogous to HIV. This study aims to provide proof of concept for human trials under Project 4.
Project 4, led by Pablo Tebas, M.D., of the Department of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania Medical School, will be a phase 1 (safety) trial of the NK-1R antagonist aprepitant (trade name Emend) in adults with HIV infection. Aprepitant is currently used to control nausea caused by chemotherapy; this project will determine whether the antagonist may also attack HIV infection in patients.
The grant also includes a private sector collaborator, Seracare Bioservices, Inc., of Gaithersburg, Md., for whom the principal investigator is Janet L. Lathey, Ph.D. This core laboratory will test candidate NK-1R drugs in conjunction with existing HIV drugs, evaluating antiviral activity against HIV-infected cells. "Including a private sector partner is a way to strengthen the goal of moving our scientific studies closer to clinical application," said Dr. Douglas.
Finally, a Biostatistics and Pharmacology Core serves all other components of the project. Directed by Avital Cnaan, Ph.D., with co-director Jeffrey Barrett, Ph.D., both of Children's Hospital, this core seeks to define linkages among the basic science experiments, the animal model experiments to establish pharmacology responses and the human trials designed to assess safety and activity.
The basic science projects of this four-year grant are already providing data, building on existing investigations of NK-1R antagonists. The animal model studies and clinical trials are in their initial stages.
The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia was founded in 1855 as the nation's first pediatric hospital. Through its long-standing commitment to providing exceptional patient care, training new generations of pediatric healthcare professionals and pioneering major research initiatives, Children's Hospital has fostered many discoveries that have benefited children worldwide. Its pediatric research program is among the largest in the country, ranking second in National Institutes of Health funding. In addition, its unique family-centered care and public service programs have brought the 430-bed hospital recognition as a leading advocate for children and adolescents.

YEOTY 2016 - The final balloon launch
Budding Engineers are ready to hit the heights at RAF Cosford balloon launch
May 12, 2016, is a really big day for 23 Staffordshire schools as they prepare for lift off with their weather balloon.
The schools are all competing in the annual KMF Young Engineer of the Year (YEOTY) competition, now in its fourth year.
This year competing schools are tasked with launching a capsule attached to a weather balloon, to a potential height of 33km.
Their individually designed capsule will contain two GoPro cameras, a GPS tracker and electronic equipment to carry out experiments of their choice.
The launch takes place at the RAF Cosford Museum with the cooperation of the RAF who are one of the many sponsors.
Each of the schools involved is matched to a sponsor who provides the finance and support for them to work up their ideas for capsule design and experiments ready for the launch at Cosford.
Abi Betteridge, RAF Museum Cosford Public Events Manager, said: "We are thrilled to be hosting our first Young Engineer of the Year project at the RAF Museum, Cosford. It's been a pleasure to be involved in such a unique and innovative project, inspiring the next generation of young engineers. We look forward to seeing the balloons launched from the airfield at RAF Cosford, as they take off on their journey into space."
Due to reduced air pressure at altitude, the weather balloons will burst at a height of around 33km. The schools then have the task of locating their capsule on its return to Earth, using GPS tracker software.
The launch is coordinated by Sheffield-based Sent Into Space who specialise in weather balloon launches. Sent Into Space director Dr Alex Baker said: "The competition has been a fantastic experience for us as well as for the schools involved. This launch will be the largest number of balloons we have ever sent up at one time since we started our business in 2010."
Sara Buckley, project manager from Staffordshire University who is sponsoring three schools, commented: "We have been involved with YEOTY since 2012. This year's competition has really captured the imagination of students and sponsors alike. It fits perfectly with the University's goal of inspiring and enabling the next generation of scientists and engineers."
Jenny Conlon, training manager at Staffordshire University, said: "For KMF the competition is all about encouraging young people into engineering and inspiring them into wanting to go into science, technology, engineering and maths subjects. It's also an opportunity to promote alternative career options, such as apprenticeships."
Dan Lambert, teacher of Design and Technology at Birches Head Academy commented: "YEOTY is a fabulous opportunity for students as it helps develop key skills like team working, improvisation and leadership. Working with KMF and our sponsor, Staffordshire University, gives the students a real insight into just how rewarding further study and a career in engineering can be."
Competition judging will take place in June for categories including best capsule design; best experiment; best project video; highest altitude; best photograph and an overall prize for Young Engineer of the Year.
Prizes will be presented at a gala awards ceremony on 7th July at the King's Hall in Stoke-on-Trent.

I really don't know if people keep goats as pets, but I do. This sounds a little bit strange right? When I tell people I have goats as pets, they get all disgusted. They call me weirdo and many other stuff, but I never stop talking about my goats. I'm very proud of them. You see, they're not like every other goats, trust me.They're well trained. You see what the bible says about child training, "train up a child in the way he should go and when he grows he would not depart from it"? Interestingly, it's applicable to goats, because it worked for me. Don't worry, you'll get to like them if you spend just a few minute with them.
The sun radiated steaming rays that afternoon. I just took a shower and was half asleep on the sofa in the parlor, the TV was on, and the reality show being aired was getting boring. It seemed like sleep got a hold of me at that point. Just when I was about to transcend into the realm of the natural state of rest and become unconscious, I was disrupted by the bleating of a goat. With my red saggy eyes, I dragged my feet to the window to check how a goat got into my compound. Dad was trying to fix one of the hind legs of the goat to a pole. I had mixed feelings about the presence of the goat, I have phobia for animals (all types of animals). I was scared it'll get lose and get to the house, climb on me, scratch my face with its hoof, pee on me… I had lots of imaginations going on in my head. Then, I was also excited because, I'd get to eat lots of meat if the goat was killed. I really do like eating meat, all types. Ranging from beef, to pork, to chicken. I'd probably try snake meat one day, maybe horse as well.
The goat behaved like every other goats, the continuous bleating, the black faeces and most especially, the smell! It really did piss me off. One day I got so pissed that I angrily asked my dad when we'll kill the goat. To my greatest dismay, he told me she was pregnant. "Pregnant"? I thought she'd be killed soon? Why did you get her? Well, my complains weren't going to change anything.
I decided to accept the occurrence as my fate. First and foremost, I gave her a name "Suzzy". I guess it made me feel at ease a bit, going around her. We give her food on a regular basis, sometimes we even give her cooked food from the kitchen. She grew fatter and fresher. She also changed in character, as she became well behaved. She cries less, stays at a place, doesn't rush her food. She doesn't even eat the food on the ground, it has to be in her plate. Can you imagine? I became fond of Suzzy so much that when I went out, I got fresh peels of yam and plantain from roadside sellers. This would get most people embarrassed, but I did it whole heartedly because I wanted to give Suzzy a treat. I loved seeing her eat, I derived pleasure from it. I couldn't wait for her to give birth.

Most employers know that California requires them to pay every employee at least $10 per hour. Did you realize that an increase in minimum wage requires an increase in salary for exempt managers? If not, listen up.
Exempt white collar employees must meet certain criteria to be considered exempt. Probably the most important is the minimum salary level. Exempt employees must make two times the minimum wage in a theoretical 40-hour work week. Forty hours per week equals 2080 hours per year (52 weeks x 40 hours). That means the minimum salary an exempt employee must make is $41,600 (2 x $10 x 2080 hours). Thus, California requires all managers to make at least $41,600 to be an exempt employee. Of course, that is also the minimum salary for all other white collar exemptions, unless a particular exemption has a different minimum wage requirement. For instance, an exempt computer professional must be paid at least $41.85 per hour or at least an $87,185.14 salary per year. Each year the computer professional wage rates increase according to the yearly percentage increase in the California Consumer Price Index.
I believe that the minimum salary level is the most important criteria to meet for exempt employees because it is the easiest criteria to challenge in a misclassification case. If a manager is not paid the minimum salary, then that manager simply is not exempt. If that manager later brings a lawsuit for unpaid overtime, then the employer will lose and will owe back wages, assuming the manager actually worked overtime hours. Most of the other exemption criteria are not as clearly discernable.
Misclassification cases often create class action liability if enough managers or other exempt employees do not receive the minimum salary. In both individual claims and class action claims, the prevailing employees are entitled to attorneys' fees.
Employers, I highly recommend that all the managers that you want to classify as exempt make at least $41,600 per year. Employees, if you are exempt, make sure that you are making the minimum salary. Local wage laws that have higher minimum wage requirements also increase minimum salaries for exempt employees. Los Angeles, for instance, will have a minimum wage rate of $10.50 per hour starting on July1, 2016. The corresponding minimum salary will be $43,680 (2 x $10.50 x 2080 hours).

If you're someone who cares about the environment, you're probably ready—really ready—for some good news right now. Despite decades of disputes, loggers and environmentalists have recently joined together to craft one of the world's largest forest conservation agreements. And this bold new plan to protect Canada's boreal forest could influence efforts to save other remaining wild areas around the world.
Though often unheralded in the media, the great Canadian boreal forest rivals the Amazon rainforest in size and ecological importance. In fact, it's teeming with billions of migratory songbirds, tens of millions of ducks and geese, millions of caribou, countless moose, as well as numerous black and grizzly bears. Stretching from coast to coast, the vast green expanse of forests also captures and stores twice as much carbon as tropical forests. Further, it supports the world's most extensive network of pure lakes, rivers and wetlands. Canada's boreal forest is a global treasure.
It is also serves, in many ways, as one-stop shopping for an array of industries that produce goods that many Americans use every day. Canada supplies—along with oil, gas and minerals—as much as half of our forest products. This includes a great deal of the lumber, building materials and paper used around the United States. Yet recent studies have shown that boreal forests, globally, are being lost faster than any other ecosystem. And logging is a big reason why.
Savvy U.S. consumers have started requesting greener forest products, like those certified by the Forest Stewardship Council. Environmental groups also have been targeting U.S. consumers of wood from Canada's boreal forest, asking them to demand more responsible practices. Global companies like Home Depot, The Limited Brands and Kimberly-Clark have already agreed to help protect Canada's boreal forest. The governments of Ontario and Quebec have promised bold new forest conservation measures. The trends bode well, promising to eventually make Canada's boreal the most protected forest on earth.
Still, at least one-third of the forest remains at risk due to complicated, long-term logging contracts. So, a few years ago the Pew Environment Group—working with key Canadian partners—convened and facilitated comprehensive talks between the timber companies and environmental groups about those contracts.
It was challenging work, but with both sides committed to looking beyond their traditional differences we knew the resulting agreement could be unprecedented. And coming on the heels of decades of public protests, boycott campaigns and court battles, this cooperation is truly remarkable.
Announced on May 18, the agreement brings together the Forest Products Association of Canada (representing nearly two dozen major timber companies) with nine leading environmental groups (including the Pew Environment Group) in the largest forest conservation plan in history. When fully implemented it will subject 170 million acres -- equal in size to Texas—to strict environmental safeguards. And for 75 million of those acres—roughly the size of Montana—logging plans will be halted to protect endangered caribou.
As all the parties work through the deal, they will be demonstrating extraordinary vision and leadership. If successful, consumers buying Canadian will know that any products from the forests covered under this historic agreement are subject to the world's highest conservation standards.
We often talk about how a healthy environment and economic growth go hand in hand. This agreement proves that it's possible to move past the timeworn battles and develop bold solutions that will change the way conservation is practiced around the world.

Hope everyone had a great week! This week I was living for the weekend, but before I go…..Let's see what book trailer I pulled off the shelf….
To celebrate the upcoming holiday we have TWO book trailers for books on my TBR!
Book One:
Goodreads.com Description: "Eva and Addie started out the same way as everyone else—two souls woven together in one body, taking turns controlling their movements as they learned how to walk, how to sing, how to dance. But as they grew, so did the worried whispers. Why aren't they settling? Why isn't one of them fading? The doctors ran tests, the neighbors shied away, and their parents begged for more time. Finally Addie was pronounced healthy and Eva was declared gone. Except, she wasn't . . .
For the past three years, Eva has clung to the remnants of her life. Only Addie knows she's still there, trapped inside their body. Then one day, they discover there may be a way for Eva to move again. The risks are unimaginable-hybrids are considered a threat to society, so if they are caught, Addie and Eva will be locked away with the others. And yet . . . for a chance to smile, to twirl, to speak, Eva will do anything."
Book Two:
Goodreads.com Description: "Eva was never supposed to have survived this long. As the recessive soul, she should have faded away years ago. Instead, she lingers in the body she shares with her sister soul, Addie. When the government discovered the truth, they tried to "cure" the girls, but Eva and Addie escaped before the doctors could strip Eva's soul away.
Now fugitives, Eva and Addie find shelter with a group of hybrids who run an underground resistance. Surrounded by others like them, the girls learn how to temporarily disappear to give each soul some much-needed privacy. Eva is thrilled at the chance to be alone with Ryan, the boy she's falling for, but troubled by the growing chasm between her and Addie. Despite clashes over their shared body, both girls are eager to join the rebellion.
Yet as they are drawn deeper into the escalating violence, they start to wonder: How far are they willing to go to fight for hybrid freedom? Faced with uncertainty and incredible danger, their answers may tear them apart forever."
Book Three:
Goodreads.com Description: "All Eva ever wanted was the chance to be herself. But in the Americas, to be hybrid—to share your body with a second soul—is not tolerated past childhood. Now Eva and Addie, her sister soul, are constantly on the move, hiding from the officials who seek to capture them. But the tide is changing. A revolution is brewing, and people are starting to question the hybrids' mistreatment.
Then Marion, an ambitious reporter, offers Eva and Addie a daring proposal: If they go undercover and film the wretched conditions of a hybrid institution, she will not only rescue them, she'll find a way to free Jackson, the boy Addie loves. It's risky, and Eva will have to leave Ryan and her friends behind, but if she succeeds, it could also tip the scales forever and lead to hybrid freedom.
As Eva and Addie walk into danger, they cling to each other and the hope of a better future. But the price they might pay is higher than they ever could have imagined."
Have a fantastic weekend!
Keep reading. Keep following.

Just 23, she was the first fatality of a withering July heat wave that struck most of central Canada and the Prairies 69 years ago. According to her family, she had been complaining of the intense heat and rose from the dinner table at her home on Golfview Avenue in eastern Toronto and went upstairs to lie down. Her father looked in on her 30 minutes later and was unable to revive her. She was one of about 30 people to die of the heat in Toronto over a 24-hour period -- 22 of them in just five hours. Most victims were elderly or very young.

KYTKA, Karel (March 24, 1978-June 1, 2003)
Remembering my son Karel, on this day of his tragic passing.
Fighting sadness, despair is again creeping...
Why, I ask! Why! Answer never comes.
Life is fleeting...
So suddenly young life tragically cut short
My only son, my love - just 25 years old!
Karel, very handsome, amazing young man.
Full of life with so many plans!
Great son, kind heart, always ready to give a helping hand.
The love of his life you ask?
Yes, his mom won his heart from the start
dad paved his road in formative years
but his sweetheart got all his cheers.
He taught many, even me. Life is love.
God is love, kindness and harmony.
Thank you Karel for being my son,
the greatest joy of my life.
God Bless you always.... Your loving Mom.
Memorial Mass today, 12 noon in St. Peter's Basilica. 196 Dufferin.

Two years later, while working as a dog groomer at a veterinary hospital she was bitten by a dog. The wound was washed with surgical iodine solution and bandaged. Three days later, the woman left work because had pain at the site of the bite and felt ill. Within 12 hours she had two grand mal seizures and collapsed She was hospitalized and treated for septicemia (blood infection) and kidney failure. She eventually recovered without complications. This patient became infected with a bacterium formerly called DF2, which is now classified as Capnocytophaga canimorsus. This bacterium is commonly found in the mouths of normal dogs. It is probably a common contaminant of dog bite wounds. Most people do not experience problems. However, the organism can cause a serious, potentially fatal systemic infection in immunocompromised people. Alcoholism and absence of a spleen have been associated with many cases. Even intensive antibiotic therapy may not be able to control the infection in such cases. The rapid onset of symptoms seen in this case is typical. Physicians should consider hospitalization for observation of splenectomy patients following a dog bite. Persons who have had their spleen removed should discuss the advisability of working with dogs or cats, with their physician in any setting.

Economic growth in Georgia is on track to reach 4.5 percent next year and could be double that by 2012-2013 as tourism, the banking sector and exports advance and foreign direct investment grows, the country's Prime Minister told CNBC in an exclusive interview on Thursday.
"We had a difficult 2009, but we are on the way to recovery," Nikoloz Gilauri said, adding that Georgia had become a regional investment hub.
Private investors are seeking to expand from Georgia into the Caucasus, central Asia, Ukraine, Turkey but foreign direct investment decreased over the past two years because of the worldwide financial crisis.
The falls were being offset however by investment coming in through international institutions, Gilauri said, adding that this helped keep the country's currency stable.
"Foreign direct investment decreased because of the worldwide financial crisis, but there is a serious increase in the inflows," he said.
International financial institutions such as the World Bank, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development and the Asian Development Bank, which are investing in projects such as hydro power plants and highways, were important drivers of this increase.
"These inflows offset the lack of FDI," he said.
Relations between Georgia and neighboring Russia reached a low in 2008, when the two countries fought a five-day war over the Georgian region of South Ossetia.
But Georgia is now politically stable, and a recent deal with Bulgaria, which plans to buy natural gas from Azerbaijan and transport it across Georgia to the Black Sea, is testimony to that, Gilauri said.
Georgia also no longer relies on Russia for its energy.
"There is gas flowing from north to south, crossing Georgia from east to west…1.5 percent of the world's total oil consumption crosses Georgia and we are electricity exporters to all neighboring countries, including Russia," he said.

This isn't as nice as some of the Kreg Jig boxes other LJers have made, but it's highly functional. Kreg Jig is mounted on top with risers to provide stability for wider workpieces. The interior dividers are pretty much fully adjustable, since I cut dados at every inch of the front/back inserts. Just need to add a handle for easy transport.

What are the blue screws? Just some off-brand screw, or something from Kreg I haven't seen yet?

Nicely done. I like the organizational part. I should do something like this as the screws all take up a drawer or 2 and I am constantly moving my jig around the shop.

Learn Apple Watch Programming Quickly Using WatchKit SDK
How do you get started with learning Apple Watch
I've spent countless hours over the past few months learning Swift and Apple Watch programming. The Apple WatchKit SDK was released only 3 months ago and I got interested right-away. I began building simulation apps within few weeks after starting to learn about Apple Watch.There are very less resources at that time ( even the Apple Documentation is not completed). Many of my friends have started to show interest to learn particularly about building apps for Apple Watch and I should say, and keep asking me if they'd be able to learn it quickly? etc. So I have taken up this task of spreading the word out about where you can learn about building Apple Watch apps and how to get you going in the right direction. I've even started writing tutorials about the topic (they are still in beta and will be public soon). Since, this is a wearable device and many haven't had a chance to play with one, many people are still under the wrong notion that it's rocket-science and is out of the common man's reach to build Apps on James-Bond-Gadget like stuff.
My first and foremost advice to anyone reading this is :
>>>Learning Apple Watch Programming is NOT rocket-science <<<
I have done it in a matter of months with some extra effort. But, you can do it at a fraction of that time if you can follow my advice and avoid wasting time on stuff that doesn't matter. Actually, in my opinion, the total time you'll take to learn and build your first app in Apple Watch really depends on two things
- Your technical/programming back-ground
- The kind of app ideas you have in mind for Apple Watch
Generally I've classified the commons request into these three categories:
- I'm an average programmer but not familiar with Swift/Xcode
- I'm an expert in iOS (Objective-C / Swift) programming
- I'm a total newbie and doesn't know the basics of programming
Chart - Can I build Watch Apps
I am
Learning Curve - Simple Apps
Learning Curve - Advanced Apps
Average Programmer ( knows atleas 1 language)
Easy (2-3 days)
Medium (3-5 weeks)
Good at iOS Programming (Objective C, Swift)
Easy (1 day)
Easy (2-3 weeks)
New to Programming
Hard but possible ( 3-5 weeks)
Hard but possible (1-3 months)
An Average Programmer Guide To Learn Apple Watch Development
Well, I stress very much on this section of the audience here because I'm one of you. And there is a lot of my experience that I can share with you about this. I've been dealing with Java programming for the past 3 years and out of curiosity and obsession towards Apple products, I began learning Swift and later explored building apps for Apple Watch. Both turned out successful in a matter of weeks.
Why is this the best time to start learning Apple Watch Programming?
If you are already familiar with any of the modern language then you are already half-way through the learning curve. Why?
- Because, Swift - the new programming language from Apple is pretty much similar to any other modern programming language. Going forward Apple has declared Swift as the official language that will be supported to build iOS Apps. The name 'Swift' - was given for the fact that you can learn and build apps in a 'swift'. It is a lot easier to learn than the old Objective-C.
- Xcode IDE (mandatory to build iOS apps) is better than any IDEs you've used so far. You wouldn't want to go back to Eclipse/ IntelliJ once you start using Xcode. I've worked on Android Programming for a couple of months and it comes nowhere near the Xcode environment in terms of ease in development and reliability.
Where to start learning?
- Start learning Swift for free at from Udacity
- Being brutally honest with you, I have a course and a website with quality tutorials where you can learn more about Apple WatchKit and learn to build Apple Watch Application. I highly recommend this article to build a quick Hello World in Apple Watch.
- You can also start to learn with the official Apple Watch Documentation
- Search YouTube for video tutorials
- Search Google for new tutorials
Apple WatchKit - Introduction about Architecture
A Newbies Guide To Build Apple Watch Applications
Should I Start with Swift?
If you are new to programming and thinking about picking a language to learn, I'd highly recommend starting with Swift. Because
- It is a new and modern programming language. So a good language to learn the programming concepts in the correct sense. And you can understand other modern languages also very quickly.
- You can start developing iOS Apps straight away and get it published to millions of users in no-time. This is the same with Android but i prefer to stay with iOS as it's more lucrative.
Where can I learn from?
I'll share some top quality resources that will help you get up to speed very quickly and are 100% free to learn.
Free Udacity courses
Intro to Computer Science
https://www.udacity.com/course/cs101 (Good Basic Programming Concepts)
Intro to iOS App Development With Swift
Apple's Official Documentation On Swift
Guide for iOS Programmers to Start Off with Apple Watch
Well, you guys can do it in a matter of days and I'd suggest taking a quick learners course to understand the new UI elements and basic architecture in the right sense without spending much time. Since you already know the concepts very well, you can quickly build and publish once you get the new jargons of Apple Watch development ( which is very easy). The minimalistic approach of Apple has reflected very well on their development eco-system as well. Anyway, lets wrap up with some trivia on Apple Watch for you, in case you didn't know:
- You cannot build native, stand-alone Apple Watch Applications as of now, all apps have their parent apps in iPhone
- The APIs for watch sensors like heartbeat, mic etc were not released for development at the time of writing this article. Only the UI is available to build our apps.
- The crown push is pretty much like the physical home button of iPhone. It's push and turns cannot be accessed programmatically by 3rd party programmers as of now. However, the screen will just scroll automatically on turning the digital crowns.
Are you interested in building Apps?
Are you planning to build and launch an Apple Watch App Soon?

The British government has told English cricket's governing body that it wants them to pull the plug on Zimbabwe's planned tour here next year, The Sun newspaper said Thursday.
The daily tabloid quoted an unnamed government source as saying that ministers had informed the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) that they did not want the tour to go ahead.
"England's cricket authorities wanted assurance from us about what to do and now they have it," the source was quoted as saying.
Zimbabwe are due to play two Tests and three one-day internationals here in mid-2009 and compete in the Twenty20 World Cup, with England due to tour Zimbabwe in 2012.
There was no immediate word from British Prime Minister Gordon Brown's office, but if confirmed it would signal the latest snub to Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe.
Brown stayed away from a key summit of European and African leaders in Portugal last month, saying it would be inappropriate for him to sit down at the same table as the Zimbabwean leader.
The prime minister has accused Mugabe of "ruthlessly destroying" human rights, violently stifling political opposition and presiding over an economic free-fall that has heaped misery and suffering on Zimbabweans.
The Sun's source said the request to shelve the tour means relations between the two countries were now "effectively dead".
"We can't pretend it's not a matter for Government a moment longer," the source was quoted as saying, referring to London's previous position of signalling their unhappiness with England cricket teams touring Zimbabwe while stopping short of banning them from going to the troubled African state.
"It is quite clearly our responsibility to stand up and be counted. No-one should sit on the fence when it comes to Zimbabwe. Mugabe needs to be given clear signals from all quarters that his regime is unacceptable."
The move would also get around the threat of a fine from the sport's governing body, the International Cricket Council (ICC), as any ECB decision to abandon Zimbabwe's visit would have government backing.
Last May, the former Australian prime minister John Howard ordered his country's cricketers to pull out of a scheduled tour to Zimbabwe, saying it would be a propaganda coup for Mugabe, whom he also called "a grubby dictator".
In 2005, New Zealand refused visas for Zimbabwe's cricketers, preventing them from playing a planned tour against the Kiwis.
British PM wants Zimbabwe's England tour shelved

Why is it saying module is missing when trying to set up SDK tools on Windows for Android Debug Bridge?
After installing Android Debug Bridge SDK, it says missing entries "start server" and "kill timer."
So when I connect my phone and open command prompt, it says "can't start ADB services, specified module is missing."
Which component is missing and how can I replenish that? Thanks!
Hello Trushar, if your sole interest is obtaining ADB, I don't suggest installing the entire SDK Tools package because it's an extraordinarily large file and it's also quite complex.
In truth you only need a few megabytes worth of files in order to achieve ADB and complete the root process (if that's what you're looking for).
This guide uses a minimal number of files and, as a result, is quite simple to use. I find that simplicity also helps prevent mistakes. Hope this is of use to you!
Don't have time right now to go through finding a resolution to your issue but I wanted to point you to http://www.xda-developers.com/
Pretty much anything Android is discussed on there and is my go to website when I have questions or a new device and want to check out device specific development information. I'm sure if you go on there and do a quick search you will find a thread that explains exactly how to overcome your issue. Anyways. g2g get ready for work. Hope this helps :)
thankss for your timeee.......buck up
no problem
You need to install additional modules required for your operations.For this,you can see the instructions in the link below which accomplish the task that you want to do -
hey thanks.......

This footage always damages me in a slow, pregnant way; it marks the infancy of my familia, it marks the moment when we were once together, before we broke apart. I decided to loop the video in hopes of producing a kind of fragmentary remembrance.
— "To My Unknown Daughter," Center for Art & Thought's #TalkingBodies Exhibit.
watch video:
[Loop Video]
Sipin family filmed by my uncle in Mandaluyong, Manila, P.I. (1967).
"#1 Dub," World Supreme Funky Fellows 2102: Mellow Beats, Friends & Lovers.
"To My Unknown Daughter: On the Inheritance of Writing," Glimmer Train.
[Artist's Statement]
Here is an essay I wrote about the Pinay body: "To My Unknown Daughter," which was published in Glimmer Train back in 2014. I thought reading this essay for CA+T's "Talking Bodies" exhibit was appropriate but also star-aligning, because I wanted to do something more with it, something visual, something multimedia. I decided against using footage of me reading this essay, or any footage of me really, and instead used this vintage, archival footage of my family in Mandaluyong, Metro Manila, Philippines, in 1967, during the Marcos regime. There's so much lovely irony in this archival, fragmented footage … My father's in there with his older brothers; him the youngest, the most hungry. He's about five years old, such a ripe and innocent age, a persona of my father I've never met or seen before, and he is seen riding a bike or longing for his eldest brother, the chosen patriarch of my family after my grandfather died. The men first seen in the beginning, in the first clip, are my two uncles—both of whom fled to the East Coast right around the time my grandfather passed, almost in defiance, in irrelevance to their eldest brother. All the kids dancing are my familia—my aunts, my uncles, my cousins, my bloodline.
Let me go deeper, and tell you the backstory behind the footage: my white uncle, who filmed this footage, met one of my aunts near Clark Air Base (she was a sex worker), and they married; before he left for America (and subsequently took her, which allowed my whole family to immigrate), he would visit the family home in Manila and bring gifts, like this camera. In this essay, I talk a bit about how this complication, this nuance, this chance meeting between my white uncle and my aunt (who was prostituted) is a consequence of U.S. imperialism, and how all of this—this kind of colonial inheritance—affects the ways I write about the Pinay body. Although I wanted to film new material, these archival, old family videos made by my white uncle—who, ironically, is the only one archiving and recording our family histories, our family tree, and salvaging mementos from our past—obsessed me. This footage always damages me in a slow, pregnant way; it marks the infancy of my familia, it marks the moment when we were once together, before we broke apart. I decided to loop the video in hopes of producing a kind of fragmentary remembrance.

What they came up with was a six-week, outdoor boot camp that involves a variety of exercises and a personalized approach, where campers are side-by-side four days a week and can help motivate one other to work harder to reach fitness goals. It looks like IN readers have felt the burn.

Winner: Best Bank
What separates Gulf Coast Community Bank with many area banks is where it makes its home—here in town. President Buzz Ritchie prides his bank on being able to talk face-to-face with a customer and not be relayed to a corporate branch. And with five branches in Escambia and Santa Rosa County, you're never too far away from "home." Today the bank has more than $280 million in assets and is continuing to grow throughout the area.

In its July, 2002 edition, the National Law Journal recognized Levin Papantonio as the fourth most successful law firm in America based on total jury verdicts.

The firm is also equipped to litigate cases in nursing home and prisoner abuse.

Gigi Tindle is my favorite creative photographer on JPG. Her mastery of double-exposures and unique compositions inspires me to envision different images. No one else on this site embraces its community as much as her. From the JPGers Ball to Project SCANdalous, Gigi is always organizing fun virtual events. Everyone here on JPG owes her a debt of gratitude.
Intentional double exposure of the Federal Court Building and a gondola on the Providence River using my Holga camera. Providence is nicknamed "The Renaissance City" for good reason!
Update 8/31/2010: This photo was published in Light Leaks Magazine #17, the "Ebb and Flow" issue.
Created using a Holga 120CFN with 20(!?!) year expired AGFA Chrome 50 RS Professional (iso 50) slide film. Positive (slide) scanned with an HP Scanjet 4890. No digital manipulation used!

SOUTH EASTON — The Rev. Suzanne Parker Higgins, gifted teacher, minister, chaplain and pioneer, died peacefully on Friday, Jan. 15, 2010, after a 15-year struggle with multiple medical conditions. She was 67.
SOUTH EASTON — The Rev. Suzanne Parker Higgins, gifted teacher, minister, chaplain and pioneer, died peacefully on Friday, Jan. 15, 2010, after a 15-year struggle with multiple medical conditions. She was 67.
Descended from Capt. John Parker, one of the original colonial minutemen, and Richard Higgins, one of the founders of Eastham and Orleans on Cape Cod, Suzanne grew up in Manhasset, Long Island, graduating from Manhasset High School. It was there she met her lifelong partner, soulmate, and husband of 44 years. She earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Education from Goucher College, at the time an all women's college in Baltimore, Md. This special educational opportunity helped forge her pioneering spirit and accomplishments as a young woman. Shortly before she was married, she taught elementary school in Huntington, Long Island, and later in Monterey, Calif., while her husband was serving in Vietnam.
While raising a young family, she attended Loyola College in Baltimore where she earned a master's degree in pastoral counseling. After moving to Easton, she earned a master's of divinity degree with honors from Andover Newton Theological School and was ordained as a Protestant minister two years later. She used this education to serve in a number of positions: a congregational minister, pastoral counselor, hospital chaplain, hospice volunteer, teacher and educator of children and young women. A gifted preacher, she received a certificate for preaching excellence from Andover Newton Theological School. She was a longtime member and chaplain for the International P.E.O. Sisterhood, Chapter Y out of Hingham.
As a young seminary student, she went far beyond her rigorous studies and formed a Single Parents Group in Easton. She led a church youth group and volunteered at The Old Colony Hospice. The Rev. Dr. Gordon Postill, the spiritual counselor at Old Colony Hospice, remarked "She was a lady of remarkable grit and courage, and had a passion for life. Her love for her family was more than just evident; it shone from her being like a beacon." Celebrant Jenn Bete added: "Suzanne was constant beauty, grace and compassion despite living for several years with health challenges we can't begin to comprehend."
A passionate activist for justice and parity for women, she was a remarkable role model for her two daughters, Paige and Brooke. She initiated the first "Clergy Abuse" seminar series. A passionate advocate to prevent abuse of the female clergy, Rev. Suzanne crafted proposed legislation, and offered testimony at the State House in Boston. To the astonishment of the legislative staff, she arrived to testify on heavily swollen ankles, making it difficult to walk. This was the precursor to her kidney failure just weeks later. "My mom was a strong, independent woman who chose to focus on the quality of her life and her love for her friends and family," Paige said.
"She was an amazing wife and mother and an exceptional example of pure tenacity, courage and fearless endurance while battling her many medical challenges," one of her many attending physicians said. "Because of my mom's illnesses, I rediscovered who she truly was for me and for others — amazing," Brooke said. "She exemplified the same persistence in everything she did, always seeking to excel, not compete. To her, no one lost when she did her best," said her husband Craig.
For the last 15 years, "Suzy," as she was known by family and close friends, was beset with multiple medical issues and got to know a wide array of providers in the medical community. Scott Bortman, her primary physician, said, "I met her at the CGSMC when she was the Protestant chaplain there and was struck by how she was with patients: for them, and a healing part of their struggle, no matter the outcome."
Parishioners would regularly praise her sermons for touching the heart and soul. Former members of her congregation, Michael and Sue Coleman, said of her: "Suzanne radiated a genuineness and compassion that few people possess. We always felt very valued when in her presence. She was a talented preacher, a mentor, a friend. She faced a challenge not with 'why me' but with a determination to get through the situation with grace."
Longtime close friends, Pete and Jan Petri, described her in this way: "Sue was a critical thinker, interested in the larger questions in life, thoughtful in her approach to those questions and accepting of all points of view. She was the best of friends because she was a good listener, nonjudgmental and always loving."
In addition to her husband Craig of Easton, and her two daughters, Paige Higgins Souza of Norfolk and Brooke Parker Higgins of California, she is survived by a brother, H. Scott Higgins of Connecticut; a sister, Ruthellen (Kiki) Sanders of New Hampshire; and multiple nieces and nephews.
A private service will be held in the spring.
In lieu of flowers, contributions should be made to the Polycystic Kidney Foundation, 9221 Ward Parkway, Suite 400, Kansas City, MO 64114-3367, in the name of Rev. Suzanne P. Higgins.
