Catalog Data Solutions (CDS), a leading provider of online solutions for industrial suppliers, has published a case study (download it from www.catalogdatasolutions.com) that explains how Tompkins Industries identified their challenges, chose and implemented a thoroughly up-to-date solution and achieved amazing results, including generating over 17,000 "sales ready" leads in the last year.
Tompkins Industries, an industrial supplier of hydraulic adapters and fluid power products, recognized that the buying process had changed because of technology. In response they have used the latest 'Cloud-based' (SaaS) technology. "We changed our sales process to adapt to and effectively take advantage of the new buying process and our customers use of CAD," said Bill Hartman, National Sales Manager, Tompkins Industries. "We now have a more efficient sales process in which time and number of contacts to close the sale are respectively shorter and less. CAD downloads are now a primary driver for our sales lead generation, providing tons of 'sales ready' leads on a daily basis for our sales team and distributors."
"We're delighted that the CDS CAD download solution is proving so successful for Tompkins Industries," said John Major, CEO Catalog Data Solutions. "As Bill and his team recognized the industrial buying process has changed, designers now research and select products online. To ensure they are in contention, suppliers' online content needs to influence that online research by being readily found and intuitively searchable using the industrial parameters of the designer and then downloadable for direct inclusion within a CAD model. Of the many types of online marketing content (e.g. white papers, case studies, brochures, videos, demos, recorded webinars, reviews, CAD model downloads, etc.) only one is known to lead to a sale nearly 50% of the time! CAD downloads may be the most efficient online marketing tool available."
Catalog Data Solutions helps industrial suppliers and distributors grow sales and strengthen customer loyalty through interactive online catalogs, ecommerce, 3D CAD model delivery and product configurator solutions.

Starting 2018 off right with an awesome library unveiling. This is one with our partners San Bernardino County Probation Department. The teams worked together to build the framework of the library and the SBCPD students took lead on creating an awesome design. This one again is a nod to their K9 team and specifically this one is a nod to Moe! It is amazing to see what these students are creating. Can't wait to see the rest of their libraries for their Vision2Read project.
In addition to the library The Literacy Club help to fund new books to fill the library (front and back). We love partnering with SBCPD and stay tuned for more library and more books. These guys know how to Be A Book Hero™.

Joey Arias
August 4th, 2016 | Published in Artists
A fixture of New York City's vibrant downtown performance scene for 30-plus years, Joey Arias is a bona fide NYC icon. In 2012 he appeared in a headlining solo concert at Central Park SummerStage and played the Southbank Centre in London as part of the Antony Hagerty-curated Meltodwn Festival. Then in October Z Chromosome, a short film starring Arias and directed by Manfred (Thierry) Mugler opened the 18th Annual Festival Chéries-Chéris in Paris. Spring 2013 sees Joey Arias in Residence at Joe's Pub over 4 Sundays and on tour in the Western United States beginning with a Valentines Day concert at the world-famous Castro Theatre.
Arias lived and worked with legendary musician Klaus Nomi until Nomi's death in 1983. However, he has long since stepped out of Nomi's shadow to gain fame in his own right as a performance artist, cabaret singer and drag artist. From outrageous performances at seminal New York nightclubs Jackie 60 and Squeezebox to the now-legendary nights at Bar d'O where he held court with Raven-O and Sherry Vine, Arias has distinguished himself with scandalous wit, sleek style and an extraordinary voice… evocative of Lady Day yet uniquely his own.
It was no surprise when Arias was tapped by Cirque du Soleil to originate the role of the emcee in their Las Vegas spectacular Zumanity, for which he co-wrote 3 songs. After 6 years in that role, Arias returned to New York where he became star and co-creator of Arias With a Twist with master puppeteer Basil Twist. The show was a critical and commercial hit and extended repeatedly for a total of 8 months at HERE Arts Center. The show has been subsequently presented in Los Angeles, Washington DC and Paris and returned to New York for another critically acclaimed, encore 8-week run at Abrons Arts Center in Fall 2011. The "Arias With A Twist" docu-fantasy premiered at the Berlin Film Festival and had it's US premiere at the 2011 TriBeca Film Festival.
In 2010 Arias returned to New York City with his first full-length concerts in over a decade. Joey Arias in Concert – featuring new jazz luminary Ben Allison and a band comprised of some of NYC's best musicians – played to sold-out houses for two weeks at Abrons Arts Center. A scaled down version of the show opened the Spiegeltent at Bard SummerScape in 2011.
Arias has performed worldwide at venues including Carnegie Hall, The Freedom Theatre in London and on a transatlantic world tour into the cabaret clubs of Paris, Tokyo, Moscow, Germany, Finland, Estonia, Canada and England. On film, he has appeared in Mondo New York, Big Top Pee Wee, Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, Wigstock – The Movie, Flawless and To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar. Television credits include the infamous Saturday Night Live episode with David Bowie and Klaus Nomi, Ann Magnuson's Vandemonium (Cinemax), Elvira's MTV Halloween Special, HBOs Dragtime, HBO's Real Sex and Gayer Than Gay on VH1, along with numerous appearances on a wide variety of talk shows and programs. Additionally, Arias has produced several of his own recordings including Arias on Holiday, Strange Fruit, Jazzo Lozo, God Shave the Queen and live recordings of StarLust in Berlin, Arias with a Twist and Bar D'o in New York.
Joey Arias is a demigod of the demimonde." – Adam Feldman, Time Out New York
"Eat your heart out Madonna."- Ben Brantley, New York Times
"In a set which spans rock, Phil Spector girl group, Burt Bachaarach and a generous allowance of Billie Holiday interpretations which have seen him hailed a 21st Century 'channel', [Arias is] utterly convincing at bubblegum sweetness, contemplative balladry, pure jazz improvisation and, in the show-stopping and radically rearranged 'Strange Fruit,' Holidays' powerful elegy about racist lynchings, a raspy bluesy howl"
– Rupert Mellor, Out There
"[Arias] makes memories. The kind that last for a lifetime." – Sundance Channel, Sunfiltered blog
"…romantic, post-modern, transgender wonder…"- New York Cool
"…make[s] Lady Gaga look like Greta Van Sustern."

Talbot who has taken the challenge to walk the length of New Zealand or the 3200km Te Araroa Trail has so far raised around $4735 through 80 donors.
He aims to raise $300,000.
In his day nine journal, walking to Lake Te Anau, he said the route from the Aparima Hut to lower Princhester Hut was difficult as he had to pass through one to two metres high tussock fields with swamp underneath and very few markers to help along the way.
He said there were shallow streams and while he got wet - on the positive side he had a good supply of water.
Talbot said the final section was walking through the heart of the Takitimu Forest, which was dense, overgrown and boggy.
He reached Princhester Hut walking 16 kilometres in 8.5 hours.
"As I arrived I had just missed a car leaving (could have got a lift) ... so I sat down and scoffed down some snacks had a big drink and walked out of Takitimu Forest (with pleasure) down the farm road.
"Got to the main highway ... Had just got my shoes off when a car pulled up and this woman Tash (who'd already picked up another hiker) offered me a lift into Te Anau.
"So both of us got dropped into Te Anau both giving her a big hug for the lift ... and went our separate ways. I wanted a campsite as soon as possible."
Talbot said he eventually found a campsite at the Te Anau lakefront holiday park.

TSG IntelBrief: The Islamic State in 2017
January 5, 2017
The Islamic State in 2017
Bottom Line Up Front:
• The new year began with several significant terror attacks claimed by the Islamic State.
• Attacks over New Year's weekend in Baghdad and Istanbul demonstrated the persistence of the group's local and international capabilities, despite facing sustained pressure throughout 2016.
• As it continues to be downgraded militarily, the Islamic State will likely increase its reliance on terror attacks—both inside and outside of Syria and Iraq.
• 2017 will likely bring further large-scale attacks—carried out by both lone attackers as well as small groups—in the name of the Islamic State.
As 2016 came to a close, the so-called Islamic State found itself in a weaker position than it began the year both in terms of territorial control and military strength. Nonetheless, the group enters 2017 as a categorical threat to both Iraq and Syria, as well as a persistent and increasing threat abroad. The gains that have been made against the Islamic State—which have come at a tremendous cost, particularly for Iraqi forces—are crucial for any hope of stability in Iraq and Syria in years to come. However, territorial gains against the Islamic State will do little to negate the more traditional terror threat posed by the group. The coming year will likely see more attacks along the lines of those in Iraq and Turkey over New Year's weekend.
Just after 2017 began, a gunman entered the Reina nightclub in Istanbul and killed at least 39 people, firing more than 120 bullets into the crowded club. The Islamic State claimed the attack, signaling its intention to wage a new and more deadly campaign in Turkey. It is unknown if the gunman—who is still at large—had accomplices; the gunman's level of communication or direct coordination with the Islamic State is also unclear. Unconfirmed media reports indicate the attacker may have trained in Syria prior to the attack. Whatever the gunman's true level of association with the Islamic State may be, the circumstances surrounding the attack indicate he likely did not act entirely on his own.
The attack in Istanbul, as well as the December 19 truck attack in Berlin, provide further illustration as to how much carnage an individual attacker can inflict with just a measure of instruction and exhortation. The unconfirmed reports of the Istanbul attacker's prior training in Syria highlight the long-term and widespread threat posed by persistent conflicts throughout the world, which provide extremist groups with ideal training grounds. Highly-publicized attacks throughout 2016 clearly demonstrated that the Islamic State has no shortage of people willing to kill in its name; the group also has a large candidate pool of potential attackers with direct combat experience.
The external threat posed by the Islamic State will not ebb proportionately with the military setbacks the group experiences in Iraq and Syria. While there is no public estimate of the number of operatives the Islamic State has in Western Europe, the group has repeatedly demonstrated the ability to strike in the EU—even in locations with heightened security postures. The new year will likely see more attacks along the lines of those seen in Berlin and Istanbul, and far more complex attacks such as the November 2015 Paris attacks and March 2016 Brussels attacks remain a distinct possibility. Indeed, 2017 will bring continued and increasing efforts by security and intelligence services to detect and disrupt their respective local threats, which combine to form a global menace.
In Iraq and Syria, the Islamic State will continue its asymmetric slide from a proto-state to powerful terror group. Multiple suicide bombings in Baghdad on New Year's Eve killed 28 people, and were followed by a series of bombings in Baghdad on January 2 that left more than 40 people dead. No longer able to take cities with tanks and armored vehicles as it did in 2014, the Islamic State is still more than capable of waging a campaign of bombings in the Iraqi capital and surrounding areas, and will maintain that capability for the foreseeable future.

What used to be there? The rapid pace of demolitions is reshaping Charlotte
Charlotte gets knocked for tearing down historic buildings and replacing them with plaques, but that criticism hasn't made us any less inclined to demolish the old to make way for the new than we used to be.
Indeed, as the city's building boom wears on, we're tearing down more buildings than we have in years. Commercial building demolition permits are on pace to hit about 175 this year – a three-year high and more than double the previous two years – while single-family tear-downs are reshaping older residential neighborhoods like Dilworth and Sedgefield.
One of the trends that's driving the demolition boom: The ongoing redevelopment of the areas in and around uptown, where the land is often more valuable for denser uses than the buildings already there. That's prompted owners to sell to developers who replace older businesses like Tremont Music Hall with townhouses, for example.
The buildings being demolished around Charlotte aren't necessarily historic, but many of them have long been familiar landmarks for local residents. And the fast pace of demolition means that if you don't visit a neighborhood for a few weeks, you might find yourself scratching your head and trying to remember "What was there?" the next time you drive by.
The demolition boom doesn't look like it will stop anytime soon either. Well-known (if aged) buildings such as the Main Library and the shuttered Board of Education building are slated to come down in the coming years for redevelopment.
Demolition costs can be expensive – permits show the Pepsi Bottling site in South End cost $360,000 to tear down, while the former Observer building uptown cost $4.2 million – but buildings cost far less to tear down than to build. Developers can often save money on their building costs, too, by recycling some of the material, such as grinding up stone from the old building and using it to fill or level parts of the site.
Here are some of the biggest demolitions in recent years across Charlotte, along with what will replace them.
Pepsi Bottling site, South End
What's gone: A soda bottling plant at 2820 South Boulevard that dated to 1938.
What's coming next: A mixed-use development with 432 apartments, along with shops and restaurants.
Who's behind it: Lennar Multifamily, an apartment developer which bought the site for $17.85 million.
Former Charlotte Observer building, uptown
What's gone: The Observer's former offices and printing plant at Stonewall and South Tryon streets.
What's coming next: A huge new development anchored by a 33-story tower occupied by Bank of America, as well as hotels, restaurants, shopping and residences.
Who's behind it: Lincoln Harris and Goldman Sachs paid $37.5 million for the 10 acres of prime uptown land.
Common Market building and shops, South End
What's gone: The former site of the Common Market in South End, along with other retailers and the original Food Truck Friday lot.
What's coming next: An eight-story regional headquarters for financial firm Dimension Fund Advisors.
Who's behind it: Developer Cousins Properties bought the site for $12.2 million.
Former Jackalope Jacks building, Elizabeth
What's gone: The Seventh Street building that used to house Jackalope Jacks, which has since relocated to Commonwealth Avenue.
What's coming next: Apartments from development firm Faison.
Who's behind it: Faison paid just over $5 million for the site last year.
Actor's Theatre building, uptown
What's gone: The Stonewall Street building that used to say "GO PANTHERS" in white letters on the black roof, home to Actor's Theatre since 2004.
What's coming next: A new apartment building called Montage, with 302 units.
Who's behind it: Developer Proffitt Dixon paid $8.6 million for the site.
Atherton Mill (the nonhistoric parts), South End
What's gone: The newer buildings on the southern portion of the site, which housed a bank and businesses such as Bonz, a barbecue restaurant.
What's coming next: A mixed-use development with 432 apartments, along with shops and restaurants.
Who's behind it: Lennar Multifamily, an apartment developer that bought the site for $17.85 million.
Tremont Music Hall, South End
What's gone: A longtime music venue that closed after a 20-year run in 2015.
What's coming next: Seventy-four townhouses.
Who's behind it: Developer Carolina Capital Investment Partners bought the property in June for $3 million.

It doesn't matter if it's you or a family member who needs to learn how to drive, you need to do things the right way and select the ideal school.

These schools aren't as easy to select as you think, you may want to consider the following points to help yourself out.

Not everyone drives cars, in fact, you may be driving a motorcycle; you need to know if the place offers training and licenses for that kind of ride. There is a special kind of training required for people who want to apply as school bus drivers.
What kind of drivers does the school endeavor to train? There are all kinds of drivers in our communities including seniors, teens, and first-timers. When you've identified which category you fall on, you need to make sure the company is well-equipped to train you. There also has to be a unique and effective approach for disabled drivers.
Your driving school training can begin right here. You have to start your journey to being a good and responsible driver right now. Being a good driver isn't just about knowing how to drive a car; find out more about how you can be one by checking out this site. There are photos showing the goings on in driving schools and the kind of training they have to offer; view here!
There are various methods used to train potential drivers; to know more about them, all you have to do is view here. If these driving school details are not satisfying you, make sure to click for more here. It's important to visit a reputable driving academy's homepage for the right kind of information. As you continue reading, you would be able to discover more of the essential steps of a school that would teach you all the ways of driving. You should learn more about driving and the many things it can offer you.
At the end of the day, the most important thing is that you are able to internalize quality info. We hope these information will help you on your driving journey. Get ready for a brand new set of driving skills with the best driving schools out there.

Our nation is facing a severe epidemic: opioid abuse and overdose. This is the public health crisis of our time.
Since 2000, this epidemic has claimed more than 300,000 lives and devastated even more families. Now it threatens to overwhelm communities in our country.
One hundred fifteen Americans die every day from prescription opioids and illicit opioids like heroin and fentanyl. In 2016, drug overdoses killed more than 63,000 Americans – more than 42,000 of these deaths involved opioids – and more recent data showed non-fatal overdoses treated in emergency departments increased by 30 percent from the prior year. Opioid abuse, addiction and overdoses do not discriminate either. The opioid epidemic in our country does not have any geographic, racial, or socioeconomic boundaries.
We must not become numb to these numbers. CDC recently documented a decrease in life expectancy for Americans – for the second year in a row. Each one of these deaths represents the premature end of a precious life worth living and too often cut down in its prime. This is all so heartbreaking, and for me, unfortunately familiar.
More than 30 years ago, America was facing a different deadly national epidemic. AIDS – acquired immunodeficiency syndrome – called on us to make a national commitment to discovery, epidemiologic and therapeutic research, and compassionate care.
I was privileged to be among the early researchers who went to work on the AIDS epidemic. The scientific journey began in urgency to discover and develop effective treatment and preventive strategies. At its peak annual death toll, we lost 44,000 individuals in one year to AIDS.
Thankfully, science has now provided important advancement for both treatment and prevention of HIV infection, such that today the end of the AIDS epidemic in our nation is in sight. Yet tragically, even more Americans are now dying of drug overdoses each year than died from AIDS at its peak.
As I begin my work as Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), it is time once again to direct our collective national scientific focus and energies to overcome this new deadly public health crisis.
Since I co-founded Baltimore's Institute for Human Virology in 1996, our facility has provided HIV treatment to more than 6,000 patients living with HIV infection in the Baltimore-Washington, D.C. community. The evidence-based practice we used to treat HIV complements the prevention approach we now need to prioritize as a nation to more fully confront the scope of the opioid epidemic. We must provide a sound scientific base and rigorous evaluation of current knowledge within the broader strategy of the Trump Administration, and we must always remember that ignorance is the enemy of public health.
Currently, CDC provides funding to 45 states and Washington, D.C., to improve opioid overdose reporting and address prevention activities through enhanced state Prescription Drug Monitoring Programs. These programs provide critical information to health care professionals so they can be aware of the amount of opioids prescribed to their patients, protect patients from an overdose or dangerous medication interaction, and help decrease the potential for diversion or misuse.
CDC also provides up-to-date information about overdoses and other health issues caused by the epidemic, including newborns experiencing opioid withdrawal and infectious diseases resulting from opioid use and misuse, including injected drugs.
States are using this data to speed their public health response. Georgia responded rapidly when a supply of counterfeit pills stamped with a brand name laced with illicit fentanyl was identified in a local hospital emergency department. New Hampshire obtains overdose data from multiple sources — such as public health, law enforcement, EMS — to provide monthly reports on emerging trends, such as upticks in illicit opioid overdoses or county-level hotspots. Timely reporting helps to coordinate and target local action and prevention efforts.
Because all levels of government – local, state, and federal – need the best and most up-to-date data to focus prevention and treatment resources where they are most needed in communities, I am committed to CDC efforts to increase the speed of reporting and achieve data integration with electronic health records and interoperability with health systems. This lets physicians see patients' prescribing histories using real-time data.
CDC is also deploying tools to promote safer and more effective opioid prescribing for pain management. Recent guidelines now include recommendations for prescribing opioids for chronic pain and interactive online training for healthcare providers. Specifically, CDC focuses both on new providers during their training and continuing education opportunities to ensure that clear evidence is translated into everyday best practices.
Finally, CDC is forging and building on partnerships with law enforcement to address the rise in the use of illicit opioids, particularly fentanyl. Overdose deaths involving fentanyl more than doubled from 2015 and 2016. While law enforcement has continued its focus on stemming the tide of illicit opioids flowing into this country, they have also taken bold steps to partner with community-based prevention and treatment organizations to help keep those suffering from the disease of addiction from entering the criminal justice system.
Our nation has faced tragic epidemics before. Each time, Americans have joined together within families, throughout our communities, and across the government to face these emergencies head-on. We must – and we will – do so again to turn back today's devastating opioid epidemic.
Dr. Robert R. Redfield is the Director for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and administrator for the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry.

The Plight of the Rhino
saSafari UK – July 2013
Recently I attended a talk by Tony Hughes who has lived in South Africa for the past 42 years, and Rhino Conservation is a personal passion of his. He highlighted the reality of the Rhino becoming extinct with some interesting and sobering facts.
In South Africa, a Rhino is killed every 11 hours.
The Rhino population has declined by 90% since 1970. As of June 2013 there are 20,000 White Rhino left, and only 4,860 Black Rhino left in South Africa. In neighbouring Mozambique, the Rhino has been completely eradicated through poaching.
The White Rhino has a square lip, and is placid in nature. A grazer, it can eat up to 220kg of grass a day. They can weigh up to 2.3 tons, and run at up to 40km/hour in short bursts. Even though they are short sighted they have a keen sense of smell. Their calves walk in front of the mother where she can smell her calf, having such bad eyesight.
The Black Rhino, which has a hook lip, is aggressive in nature. As browsers they eat from trees and shrubs. They can weigh up to 1.9 tons, and run up to 25km/hour in short bursts. They have excellent vision and sense of smell. Their calves walk behind the mother.
Powdered Rhino horn is used in all kinds of treatments and medicines in the Far East and Africa, and in the Middle East for ornamental dagger handles in Yemen. All based on folklore and myth, the medicines have absolutely no effect on the various ailments they are used for. The horn is made of protein keratin, just like the keratin we have in our hair and nails.
Its the value of the horn that is staggering. Today, Rhino horn costs £60,000 per kg. Thats twice as much as the value of Gold. A horn weighs on average 3kg. A poacher is paid on average £2000,00 per horn.
In 2011 448 Rhinos were killed in South Africa, in 2012 it rose to 668. As of June 2013 408 Rhinos have been killed (of those 265 were in the Kruger National Park). In 2011 232 poachers were arrested, 267 in 2012, and as of June 2013 121 poachers were caught (of which 56 were caught in the Kruger National Park.
The Kruger National Park is 7580 square miles. You could fit Cornwall, Devon, Dorset, Somerset and Wiltshire into that area. The eastern park border with Mozambique has to be patrolled to keep poachers out – it is 190 miles long. Thats like having to patrol a border from Penzance to Bristol. Anti-poaching is a military operation as you have contact with determined poachers who are armed, and who will shoot to kill the special operations that are in place to apprehend them. The way Rhinos are slaughtered is appalling, many still alive when their horns are hacked off and left to die agonising deaths.
Poaching is now being referred to as trafficking as it is being supported by international organised crime, militias and terrorists. SANPARK game rangers in South Africa have huge areas to patrol but they also get support from the South African Police, South African Defence Force, South African Air Force. They also have 2 drones and 2 helicopters, dog units, as well as specially trained forces.
All low flying aircraft over the parks have to switch to a specific frequency. Any unidentified aircraft will be intercepted by the air force. Farmers, residents and rangers in the park areas are also required to be on the look out and report anything unusual they may see on the ground or air.
De-horning Rhinos, relocation, micro chips and looking at way to poison or damage the horn have all been interventions made in recent years. However international pressure to ban Rhino hunting and products is the only way to save the Rhino, as well as donations to relocate them to protected areas. Their plight is going beyond the Africa bush – recently a wildlife park in the UK was put on high alert when they were alerted to a plot to poach the Rhinos in their park following a tip off to Police.
There are many established charities and organisations to help save the Rhino. These include Save The Rhino, WWF, International Rhino Foundations, Wildlife ACT Fund, Forever Wild, WESSA Rhino Initiative, Black Rhino Range Expansion Programme (BRREP), and Rhino Force (Rhino relocation).
Below are some reasons why we need to save the Rhino:
1. Rhinos are critically endangered
Three of the five species of rhino are "Critically Endangered" as defined by the IUCN (World Conservation Union). The Black Rhino It is considered to be facing an extremely high risk of extinction in the wild. The White rhino is classified by the IUCN in the lesser category of being "Near Threatened"; and the Indian rhino is classified as "Vulnerable".
2. Rhinos have been around for 50 million years
Rhinos have been an important part of a wide range of ecosystems for millions of years.
3. Humans have caused the drastic decline in numbers
Poachers kill rhinos for the price they can get for the horn; land encroachment, illegal logging and pollution are destroying their habitat; and political conflicts adversely affect conservation programmes.
4. Rhinos are an umbrella species
When protecting and managing a rhino population, rangers and scientists take in account all the other species interacting with rhinos and those sharing the same habitat. When rhinos are protected, many other species are too; not only mammals but also birds, reptiles, fish and insects as well as plants.
5. Rhinos attract visitors and tourists
Rhinos are the second-biggest living land mammals after the elephants. Together with lion, giraffe, chimpanzee and polar bear, the rhino is one of the most popular species with zoo visitors. In the wild, rhinos attract tourists who bring money to national parks and local communities. They are one of the "Big Five", along with lion, leopard, elephant and buffalo.
6. In situ conservation programmes need our help
Protecting and managing a rhino population is a real challenge that costs energy and money. Rhino-range countries need our financial support, and benefit from shared expertise and exchange of ideas.
7. Money funds effective conservation programmes that save rhinos
We know that conservation efforts save species. The Southern White rhino would not exist today if it were not for the work of a few determined people, who brought together the 200 or so individuals surviving, for a managed breeding and re-introduction programme. Today, there are some 17,500 Southern White rhinos. The Northern White rhino subspecies may just have become extinct, but it is not too late to save the rest.
8. Many people don't know that rhinos are critically endangered
Not just that, but how many people know that rhinos also live in Asia? Or that two species have just one horn? Or that the horn is not used as an aphrodisiac? We have even heard some people say that they are carnivores!
If people do not know about these amazing animals and the problems they are facing, how can we expect them to want to do something to help save rhinos?
SaSafari is going to be launching our first Giving Back initiative in support of the Rhino. Have a look at our Big 5 website page to learn more about the Rhino and the other Big 5 animals of southern Africa http://sasafari.com/wildlife-and-the-big-five/

Get Citation
This collection of important and significant papers examines a wide range of issues. One of the author's main concerns is to clarify the meaning of 'education' and 'quality in education' - a phrase often used in public debate but seldom scrutinized. Long-standing ambiguities latent in the concept of 'liberal education' are also exposed, and Herbert Spencer's question 'What knowledge is of most worth?', vital in the light of the recent vast development of knowledge, is considered. The first section of the collection clarifies different aspects of the concept of education and to reflect upon the difficulties and dilemmas facing teachers who strive to educate their pupils as distinct from just preparing them for examinations. This section concludes with a constructive re-examination of Plato's conception of education with a view to seeing what is acceptable in it instead of just concentrating on what is manifestly unacceptable. The second section is concerned with the role of edcuational theory in the education of teachers.

Intrinsic Announced as a Microsoft Application Compatibility Factory Partner
Chicago, IL – May 7, 2009 – Intrinsic Technologies, a Microsoft National System Integrator and Gold Certified Partner, is excited to announce that they are now an official Microsoft Application Compatibility Factory Partner.
Microsoft created the Application Compatibility Factory (ACF). This was created to help their customers remediate applications that were critical to their specific business. The overall goal of ACF is to reduce application compatibility needs and help customers resolve issues that may occur when upgrading to Windows 7.
ACF is a successful program comprised of global and local partners who are trained in the latest Microsoft technologies and trained to recognize their customer needs. Microsoft's ACF partners are knowledgeable, responsive, and committed to helping customers attain their specific goals.
The ACF Program is a 5-day engagement with a customer, paid for by Microsoft. As part of the 5-day engagement, Intrinsic will:
· Engage with your business and review your custom business applications
· Conduct a 1-day training session with an IT staff member that will cover tools, processes, criteria, and best practices for migrating existing applications to Windows 7
· Successfully remediate the critical business applications to the new platform
· Compile an initial plan that will work with your business needs
"As organizations make the decision to move to any new Operating System, Application Compatibility Testing equates to the largest financial and time costs of that decision. Microsoft's decision to help fund the Application Compatibility Factory initiatives shows their firm commitment to their customer's deployment success," said Kerry Lebel, Practice Manager for Lifecycle Infrastructure at Intrinsic, "We at Intrinsic are excited to have a strong, experienced consulting force with years of experience in the deployment space and look forward to helping people prepared for the migration to Windows 7 and beyond. Our goal is to utilize the Microsoft ACF and our team's experience to make the migration process as smooth as possible."

It's almost been a year since Claire and Stuarts pretty wedding day at Curradine Barns, in Shrawley, Worcestershire and It still gets me every time, as to how quickly time goes by...
Claire and Stuart held their wedding ceremony and reception all together at the wonderful wedding venue that is Curradine Barns. I am always here every year and I capturing wedding here. The venue is not far from my home either, so super handy for me!
Claire got ready in the bridal dressing room, along with her bridesmaids and Mum. All the girls did the usual... make-up... hair... and we were greeted by Claire and Stuarts son Zach too - who totally stole the show on the day! He is such a cutie!
The room was set up for the ceremony, with big C & S lights at one end, the aisle was dressed with buckets of gypsophila and jugs of sunflowers. Their rooms always look stunning at Curradine Barns!
Family and friends all gathered to watch Claire and Stuart say their vows and exchange wedding rings. Claire's Dad gave her away and Zach also joined them for the walk down the aisle!
The weather played ball and it was hot all day long... (unlike today!) I took the couple off for a few portraits, while the guests enjoyed drinks and lawn games before sitting down to enjoy a glorious three course meal. Speeches were done after the meal. Claire's Dad, Stuart and the Bestman all stood up to say a few words.
As the weather stayed fine, more lawn games and relaxing outside was had until the dancing commenced.
Thanks to Claire and Stuart for asking me to photograph their wedding - It was lovely to be a part of such a wonderful day. I hope you both have a fantastic first wedding anniversary.
Lots of love Sam x

After nearly 40 years in operation and countless young pupils, Newton-Wellesley Hospital's Children's Corner will close its doors.
Located on the NWH campus, the nonprofit Children's Corner was established in 1978 to provide childcare for the children of hospital employees, as well as local families, according to its website.
"Our family is somewhat less affected than others because our son will be heading to Kindergarten in the fall, but we have heard from other families with younger children in the center. This turn of events has been wrenching for them," said Children's Corner parent Kate de Bethune, a Newton resident. "Most frustrating is that this decision was made without involvement from Children's Corner families or the community at large."
The "difficult" decision to close was made because the 90-year-old building housing the daycare needs extensive renovations, estimated to cost in excess of $1 million and to require two years to complete, the hospital explained in a statement to the Townsman. However, the building remains safe for children and teachers, according to the statement.
"We understand that NWH has strategic goals and objectives they need to meet. It is also understandable that renovation of the structure housing Children's Corner does not make sense," said de Bethune. However, she added, "that the decision was presented as a fait accompli, makes it a bitter pill to swallow."
The closure will be effective June 28, 2019. The hospital has partnered with Watertown-based Bright Horizons Family Solutions to find childcare options for the Children's Corner's 46 families and employment opportunities for its teachers, the statement noted.
"This partnership gives families a wonderful child care option and teachers an opportunity for employment at a reputable and supportive organization," according to the NWH statement.
In addition to centers in Newton and Wellesley, Bright Horizons has more than 20 locations across eastern Massachusetts, providing both parents and teachers with locations potentially closer to home, the hospital explained.
"We recognize that this announcement is difficult news for some," the statement read. "Newton-Wellesley Hospital cares deeply about our families and teachers and are working closely with them to ensure a seamless transition."
To aid in the transition, the hospital will provide priority placement at Bright Horizons centers and financial subsidies for parents and teachers, according to the statement.
In an ideal world, said de Bethune, the Children's Corner team would be kept together — with or without the hospital's sponsorship.
"Children's Corner is so special, and indeed, I would say extraordinary, because of the people," she said. "The team there has been together for decades; the experience and caring they bring to their work has not only benefitted our son, but many children from Newton and surrounding communities before him. The devotion and love they bring to their work is singular."

Please do a SEARCH for them... you decide. From opur FAQ's
1) research your vendor before buying . Do a search on here. You'll be very confident in your purchase OR...Enough garbage will show up to give you pause!
2) use PayPal. But DO NOT USE THE FRIENDS AND FAMILY OPTION. PayPal considers the Friends and family option a gift and will not reimburse. Even if the vendor asks you to use F/F, DO NOT DO IT. I believe it's unlawful for them to require you to pay the 4% extra if you use the business option on PayPal but that may be a rumor. My vendor asked me to use F/F and I'm guessing it's because he knew PayPal wouldnt rescind his payment if I filed a claim. If you use the business option and the need arises, PayPal will reimburse up to 2k.
3) google your vendor
4) After you do your search on the forum about your vendor, PM anyone who wrote negatively and ask if they got their issue resolved.

While the Pitkin County Police Department has revealed that a weapon of some sort was involved in the domestic dispute between Charlie Sheen and Brooke Mueller, TMZ reports that Charlie was in possession of a knife.
Apparently Mueller told the police in Colorado that her 44-year-old husband threatened her with a knife, TMZ reports.
Charlie was arrested on three charges, one of which was "felony menacing," meaning a threat involving a deadly weapon of some form.
Charlie was taken in by Aspen police on Friday and released on $8,500 bail the same evening, but is due back in court of Feb. 8.

Whether you are building for retirement or already retired, this workshop is for you!
Sixty-three percent of all U.S. households have established a retirement plan, but while retirement accounts provide significant advantages that allow individuals to save for retirement, they are a problematic asset to leave to surviving spouses and heirs.
Furthermore, you don't want to be left guessing about how to maximize Social Security benefits - when to file, how to file, the taxation of benefits, etc. Through estate planning, these problems can be addressed.

Access to each document can be restricted to individual employees. This secures each document on a work flow basis. Access should be controlled to prevent employees from selling the confidential data of employees, vendors, contractors, or patients. Any record has a lifespan and an DMS software package can automatically destroy unneeded records.
The first thing is to work on a document management policy. Determine how long to keep each type of document. Then, determine which employee needs access to which document. This needs to be published to each user.
Next, it is time to clean out all of the unwanted documents. Have everyone who keeps official records eliminate documents that should be destroyed. Also distribute shredding containers around your organization. Ask employees to go through their files, using the official document management policy, and destroy documents past their usefulness. There is no need to digitize documents that are not required.
Step three is to determine what documents will be needed going forward. The economies of document scanning increase with the number of times the document is used and shared. If it will never be used again then just storing the original document is the superior option. What remains is what you need to scan.
Finally it is time for the physical act of scanning. You can buy equipment and assign the work to an employee or contractor. You can also find a scanning service. If you have a box or two, then using an employee should work. But, as you grow, the number of documents to scan can overwhelm your capacity to do the work yourself.
Tucson Shredding Service makes the conversion process easy by partnering with local companies with high speed scanning equipment and people who perform this work daily. They can index the files and then shred them after the work.

With 18 fewer seats this Qantas 787 could feel as good inside as it looks from the outside
Canada mounts tourism mountain in Oz, and wants a bit of the US on the side
There are factors at play in the Australia-EU and UK market that are much more important than Perth-London non-stops in a 787
Australian cities are expected to get some of the first 787-10 services to Singapore from next year, but will we fit into the seats?
Very first international Qantas 787-9 route will be Melbourne-Los Angeles
Perth will be a big plus compared to Dubai for some London flyers, but the 787 isn't adult sized in economy
Nothing can disguise the fact that if you fly economy in a Qantas 787-9 you will be crammed into a small space
The first real test of the discomfort levels of the new Airbus A350 versus the Boeing 787 Dreamliner has been set up on the painfully long Singapore-San Francisco route
There are credible rumours that the seat count in the Qantas Boeing 787-9s due from the end of 2017 will be a low, and comfortable 235, and Melbourne-Dallas will be one of the routes.
One of the best features of the 787 is going dark, or darker. Runway Girl Network has reported that a version of the Dreamliner's dimmable windows that is 100 times darker is in the works.

Runway Rundown: Junya Watanabe
If you've ever thought black is boring, then you should check out these images from the Junya Watanabe fall 2014 show at Paris Fashion Week. The venerable Japanese designer (and notable name in avant-garde fashion) presented a show befitting his incredible rep, with look after look of texturally contrasting, meticulously constructed, thought-provoking pieces. Color would have only been a distraction.

Introduction: oMoi is a hand-made multi-purpose moisturizer which is made from 100% natural ingredients. It can be used as a body cream, hand cream and it's even just as effective and good for the cuticles. Also it is gentle enough to not only use on the face, but also on sensitive skin
The fragrance on this is much stronger than most moisturisers, but a very pleasant one; a mix of pure essential oils: lavender Neroli, Geranium. The consistency of the cream is a thick one but once rubbed/warmed it quickly disperses into a light oil, making it easy to spread around the area in which you wish to apply it too. It does not absorb into the skin as quickly as other moisturiser brands, though once it does sink into the skin it leaves a glow and radiance. Also it leaves the skin feeling supple and moisturised which lasts throughout the day.
Directions: Warm the cream in between your palms and apply to your skin using circular motions.
- Preservatives-free and paraben-free
- Anti-ageing balm with added Vitamin A
- 100% natural product
- Concentrated with no added water
- Hand-made
Available in 50ml size at £23.00 which you can purchase here exclusive to the My Beauty Time website. A new addition has been added to the oMoi range, the oMoi Facial oil which I am dying to try out - I love my facial oils and serums.
Conclusion: As a sufferer of facial eczema I would buy oMoi all-In-One Balm again, it suits my sensitive skin very well, and I love the supple feel it leaves - also leaving my skin feeling well cared for. A little goes a long way when using this, and though it doesn't sink into the skin very quickly it is worth the wait.

April 15, 1912 marks the 102nd anniversary of the disaster that continues to captivate: the loss of the "unsinkable" luxury liner, RMS Titanic.
On that calm, cold night, the Titanic was pulled to the icy depths of the Atlantic Ocean, after striking an iceberg during its maiden voyage. Of the 2,224 souls aboard, a mere 705 survived.
The greatest tragedy associated with this legendary disaster, is that it could have been avoided, but for numerous human errors that were committed before and during the voyage.
"The Titanic is one of the most classic illustrations of that: had just one thing been different, the disaster wouldn't have happened," said Dr. Roger McCarthy, disaster analysis expert, Exponent, Inc.
"Saw much heavy pack ice and great
number large icebergs..."
— One of may unheeded warning cables.
Among those flaws were poor quality rivets, and steel with high sulphur content, which became very brittle at cold temperatures. The temperature of Titanic's icy waters? 28F. Other contributing factors are all too common in life today: rash judgement, pride, lack of adequate safety measures, and failure to heed repeated warnings.
HVAC Angle: MASSIVE Boiler System
29 steam boilers were installed in Titanic, to create the massive volume of steam required to move the great lady. 24 were double-ended (with fireboxes at each end), and five were single-ended.
A total of 162 furnaces had to be stoked with coal by 200 workers, one shovelful at a time. About 600 tons of coal per day were required to maintain a speed of 22 knots. The boilers also provided steam to generate electricity through dynamos that powered the ship's steering motor. The working pressure of the boilers was 215 psi. — rmstitanicremembered.com
Critical Mistake: Too Few Lifeboats
Titanic only carried enough lifeboats for 1,178 people—slightly more than half of the number on board, and one-third her total capacity. And when launched, those lifeboats were filled below capacity.
The race was on to beat past transatlantic crossing records. Speed — so dangerous when
navigating iceberg-dotted waters — was the worst tactic that Captain Edward Smith could
have pursued.
- Ice warnings — 21 in all over the course of the journey's first four days — were either ignored or missed. Above are the warnings sent on the fateful night.
HOW GRAND WAS THE TITANIC? This video from The History Channel tells you all you need to know about the dimensions of the massive ship.
Did Design Flaws Doom Titanic Before She Even Left the Dock? — Source: History Channel.
In 2012, James Cameron, director of the 1997 blockbuster Titanic, explored the wreck miles below the surface, for National Geographic. Their research enabled Cameron and his team to develop a computer-generated masterpiece of how the ship went down.
"I think the Titanic can be used as an analogy to business," wrote Hank Moore, corporate strategist, in TrainingMag.com, on the 100th anniversary of the disaster.
"The Titanic was a monument to human folly and arrogance. It started with pomp and potential. But it turned into a lot of what-ifs and missed opportunities. So, too, is the case with business, which should learn the lessons from the economic downturn and corporate scandals." Moore wrote.
Moore is the author of "The High Cost of Doing Nothing," in which he reveals that, "every year, one-third of the U.S. Gross National Product goes toward cleaning up problems, damages, and otherwise high costs of doing either nothing or doing the wrong things."
According to Moore, on average, it costs six times the investment of preventive strategies to correct business problems (compounded per annum and exponentially increasing each year). In some industries, the figure is as high as 30 times...six is the mean average.
Moore believes the Titanic disaster could have been avoided if there were changes in management, planning, timing, supplies, and regulations. See his article here.
HOW DO YOU MANAGE YOUR BUSINESS? Do you plan ahead on calm days for weather that might require you to batten down the hatches at your business, or warn customers in advance of impending danger? We in the HVAC industry are weather watchers, aren't we?
Do you have sufficient supplies to ride out a disaster in your home and business — and the capital to withstand any financial disasters? Do you have a public relations plan in place in the event your company becomes the focus of a local incident?
And finally, do you follow industry regulations? HVACR professionals work with natural gas, fire, and electricity. Our technicians must be well-trained and must follow regulations at all times. If you think the industry needs more in a specific area, please do what you can to reach the proper gatekeepers for that warning.
DON'T LET YOUR BUSINESS become a mini-Titanic disaster. Plan ahead and work smart.

NFAW's ELECTION 2016: policies and their impact on women, here's their summary on the health policies of the three major parties
Australian women enjoy some of the best health care and outcomes in the world.1 However, the way in which women experience the health system continues to be shaped by gender and some groups lack adequate and equitable access to health services. In particular, Indigenous women, women with a disability, women in rural and remote areas, migrant and refugee women, women as carers, older women, and lesbian and bisexual women, have been identified as at a greater risk of poor health outcomes.2
The current National Women's Health Policy was released in 20103, and requires updating to ensure that it continues to provide a contemporary plan for addressing the inherent inequality in access to health services. Get the full story here…….5 health FINAL for 18 June
|Labor (ALP)
|Women's Health Policy
|Develop a new Women's Health Policy.
Establish women's advisory committees and diversity units in all federal government departments.
|The Greens support:
1. A national women's health policy.
2. Government funding for an independent women's health peak body to provide advice and support in developing women's health policy including $225,000 p.a. for 4 years.
3. Establishment of women's advisory committees and diversity units in all federal government departments.
4. Funding for an ongoing national conversation on sustainable funding of women's health initiatives, Including $100,000 towards a conference on women's health.4
The Greens have also announced a plan to expand access to affordable abortion and contraception services by investing $15 million. The plan would:
1. Support decriminalisation of abortion under State law.
2. Increase access via public hospitals by establishing the Task Force on Abortion and Contraception funded at $2 million p.a.

2015 Healthy Home Makeover
by Christina Meyer-Jax, Tastemaker in Residence
See Christina on Fox 9 News.
It's the same old New Year's story, this year I resolve to:
1. Eat more healthy
2. Exercise more
3. Lose weight
4. Drink less of my calories
5. Etc...
Instead of focusing on nebulous goals and the ultimate fail of "willpower", it's time to make creating healthy eating systems this year's resolution. With the average person encountering 200+ eating decisions everyday, building a supportive food and fitness environment will help you reach your goals far easier than relying on your own self-control.
Top Healthier Home Makeover Tips:
1. Quality, Not Quantity. Time to choose real foods with real nutrients. There is no magic bullet here. Eat high quality (real) foods with fiber, healthy fats, and protein to help fill and fuel you up. Don't grab on to gimmicks. The best snacks are those with nutrient dense ingredients such as nuts, seeds, veggies, and fruit.
2. Size Does Matter. Most of us belongs to the clean plate club. The average adult eat 92% of what they put on their plate. So choose smaller plates, tall thin glasses, small serving utensils, and mini-size containers to help moderate your intake.
3. Out of Site Out of Mind. Research shows that we eat more of the first thing we see in our pantry and fridges. Keep cut up fruit and veggies in the first row and less healthy snacks in lower shelves ideally in dark containers. Better yet, don't buy the trigger foods to begin with. We all know if the ice cream is in the freezer, we will find it and eat it.
4. Prep Ahead and Batch Cook. Invest in some bento boxes and pack lunches and snacks ahead of time. Block out your calendar and make time for it (facebook, twitter, and instagram can wait). Why cook only chicken for tonight's dinner, when you can cook a larger batch and freeze for later in the week? No time for breakfast? Fill up a blender container with plain greek yogurt and frozen fruit and put in the fridge for the next morning. Now all you have to do is pop it on the blender head as you hit go on the coffee pot the next day. Viola...breakfast!
5. Less Variety=Less Eating. Human behavior drives us to consume more when there is more foods to choose from. Any trip to a buffet will confirm that. At your home and meal occasions, keep the daily offerings low. Add variety in the weekly rotations, not at each occasion.
6. Frame Exercise as Fun, You Will Eat Less. Cornell University researchers found when participants framed a walk as "exercise" they ate 35% more of the chocolate pudding offered vs. participants who framed their walk as fun (scenic, added music, social). When we frame an activity as exercise we feel we deserve a bigger reward, vs. if the activity is already fun.

The 2016 election has exacerbated a political climate that was already inimical to academic freedom. We have recently seen legislative and gubernatorial attacks on individual faculty members, course offerings, governing boards, the institution of tenure, and, generally, the institutional autonomy of colleges and universities. Websites such as Professor Watchlist are monitoring activities of faculty members and denouncing departures from what they view as acceptable. These activities have led to targeted harassment of faculty members. This presentation provides an overview of the concept of academic freedom, recent attacks on academic freedom, and how you can defend academic freedom.
Hans-Joerg Tiede is a senior program officer with the national AAUP in the department of academic freedom, tenure, and governance. He previously served as a professor of computer science at Illinois Wesleyan University.
Tiede's contributions as a national AAUP leader include serving on the Council, the Committee on Membership, the Committee on College and University Governance, Committee A on Academic Freedom and Tenure, and the Committee on the History of the Association, which he also chaired. As a member of the Committee on College and University Governance, he was the primary author of two statements: Confidentiality and Representation in Academic Governance (2013) and Faculty Communication with Governing Boards: Best Practices (2014). While a member of Committee A, Tiede served on investigating committees at the University of Northern Iowa (2012) and at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (2015).
For the last several years, he has regularly taught workshops on shared governance, faculty handbooks, and academic freedom and tenure at the AAUP/AAUP-CBC Summer Institute, and at the two most recent AAUP annual conferences, he gave plenary presentations on AAUP history.
