The residential market may have cooled in Melbourne, but an undersupply of dwellings and strong growth in the industrial property market present solid opportunities for property investors, land owners, developers and builders in Melbourne's South East region.
That was the key message at Pitcher Partners' flagship South East region event, held at Bunjil Place on Friday 16 November. The South East Property Breakfast brought together builders, land and property developers, sales and real estate agents, Members of Local Council and Government bodies, bankers, construction companies and property valuers and lawyers.
Guest speakers included Glenn Lampard from Charter Keck Cramer, Sue McMillan from Invest Victoria, and Pitcher Partners' Julian Cheng. It was hosted by David Knowles, Partner-in-charge, South East region. They explored the potential for residential and industrial growth in the South East region, and the impact of tax changes on the property sector.
The breakfast was opened by Brendan Britten who acknowledged Pitcher Partners' commitment to one of Victoria's most economically productive regions, with an extension of our lease at 80 Monash.
Read highlights from the event on our collated twitter feed or explore our event insights below.
Glenn works in direct support of the Valuations team and the greater Charter business and has over 20 years of primarily commercial property research experience.
Although the residential property market has cooled, the fundamentals of the residential market are strong. Strong migration to Melbourne is being driven by job availability, which in turn drives both residential and office development. Melbourne needs more residential development and greenfield sites. There is a strong demand for new industrial development in the South East region, but office space will continue to be centred around the CBD.
Foreign capital: Plenty of foreign capital interested in us at the moment. 6 – 7% return likely to sell. Most things selling on 5%.
Residential: Medium density townhouses. 30% of residential property bought in Melbourne is in the South East region. Plan Melbourne target: deliver 45000 per dwellings per year – 20000 should be apartments. We haven't reached that level.
Greenfields: We need to deliver more land through greenfield sites
Industrial Market: In Melbourne: 26000 hectares industrially zoned land – 37% of it is in the South East. Retail is strong and logistics and e-retail are driving demand for space in the South East. Industrial land price going up and land banking has started again.
Eastlink has been slow to deliver the new office precinct we may have expected to see emerge in the South East region, due to the GFC. We will not see a lot of office development in the South East as this is centred in the CBD.
Immigration decline (potential policy change) – English and Indian immigration in the South East has influenced the type of residential stock.
Trump providing uncertainty: fluctuating stock market, nervousness around potential trade war.
Difficult finance environment.
Government needs to step in and take a realistic look at vacancy rates, as well as incentives for commercial zoning.
Invest Victoria aims to grow Victoria's economy, and actively promotes Victoria as an excellent destination to invest or establish a national headquarters. They connect overseas investors with local partners, and advise on specific industries, infrastructure, migration issues and regulation. Invest Victoria can also support Victorian business in getting a foothold in the international market.
Developers and landowners – alert Invest Victoria to the location of your land so they can direct international investors to you, and support you in conversations with them.
In the last six months the Victorian government invested 300 million of capex – creating 1600 jobs in this region.
Beyond grants, a significant part of this assistance is engagement with council and regulatory bodies and utilities companies, to help businesses navigate their way through the often complicated regulatory process.
Priority areas for investment in the South East: airport at Koo Wee Rup is only a matter of time given the export demands for the significant food bowl in this area.

A change in government following the next election could see Labor implementing a number of tax proposals which could impact the property market. If the Liberal party is re-elected, we expect it to be 'business as usual' except for further cuts to the corporate tax rate for companies with turnover below a certain turnover threshold.
The ATO has also released draft guidance on tax issues affecting the property and construction industry. There are some controversial views expressed by the ATO in its draft guidance.
A Liberal Government
The Liberal Government's key tax policy has been cuts to the corporate tax rate. These were announced in 2015 federal budget but, since the, have been through a number of iterations and changes. Key points to note are:
A company's "aggregated turnover" must fall below a certain threshold ($25m for 2017/18, $50m for 2018/19 and future income years). This takes into account turnover of certain related entities.
The other condition is that the company's "base rate entity passive income" (e.g. rental income, certain dividends, net capital gains) must not exceed 80% of the company's assessable income.
Broader-based cuts to eventually apply to all companies regardless of turnover have been blocked in the Senate. However, the target rate of 25% originally scheduled to apply from 1 July 2026 will now apply from 1 July 2021.
A company that is eligible for the reduced corporate tax rate may also be required to frank dividends at the reduced rate. This may result in wastage of franking credits where franked dividends are paid out of profits that were previously subject to tax at a higher corporate rate of tax. Careful planning around timing of dividends may mitigate this potential risk.
Key takeaways are:
Planning is required in relation to the payment of franked dividends to mitigate any risk of wastage of franking credits.
A Labor Government
Labor has announced it will attempt to tackle housing affordability through:
Based on Labor's announcements, these measures, if introduced, will not apply to investments made before their application dates (expected to be after next year's federal election);
Other measures proposed by Labor include:
The key takeaway is, at this stage, we do not have the detail of these proposed measures and whether Labor will be able to secure sufficient support to pass any relevant legislation through Parliament (if they win government next year).
The ATO has issued draft guidance on various tax issues relevant to the property and construction industry. These include how to determine if gains or losses are capital or revenue in nature, and the characterisation of development agreements, for example, as partnerships or agency arrangements.
The capital vs revenue distinction is important when determining the tax treatment of gains or losses on the disposal of property. If a gain is revenue in nature (usually the case where land is acquired for development and sale), the CGT discount is not available. Furthermore, if the land was acquired pre-CGT, a revenue gain may still be subject to tax. The ATO's draft guidance contains some examples on the characterisation of gains and losses, which we have some concerns with. Pitcher Partners has lodged a submission with the ATO setting out our concerns with the draft guidance in its current form.
The key takeaway is that businesses in the property and construction industry should be mindful of the ATO draft guidance and whether they are potentially affected by any of the ATO's views. Care should also be taken in the structuring of property developments and development agreements in light of the views expressed in the draft guidance.

Hi!I am creating a simulation model where I want my machines (or at least some of them) to stop working during the weekend. My Shift Calendar contains of two shifts (06.00-14:00 mon-fri, 14:00-22.00, mon-fri), and I have inserted all my machines (SingleProcs) into "Resources" of the ShiftCalendar. Do I need to use some kind of method to make the machines stop during the weekend, or is this enough?Best Regards
Go to Solution.
you need to select the shiftcalendar in the tab control or drag the singleProcs on the shiftCalendar. Plant Simulation enters the assigned stations to the list ressources in the shiftcalendar (you dont need to do this).
At the weekend the stations should change to the state unplanned, this you will find also in the statistics tab of the SingleProcs (and gray LED).
If the response to your question is satisfactory, please do not forget to 'Accept' the solution.
Thank you,

High speed machining will generate heat that may cause machine heat displacement. Compensation for machine heat displacement places a considerable burden on machine operators. The INTELLIGENT THERMAL SHIELD function automatically compensates the heat displacement in order to realize high accuracy machining over extended periods of operation. While the conventional heat displacement control function requires parameter setting by machining sample workpieces each time the environment or operation status changes, the INTELLIGENT THERMAL SHIELD realizes high accuracy machining even when the environment or operation status changes by the advanced spindle heat displacement prediction system.
High accuracy compensation for spindle expansion and contraction due to spindle operation has been realized thanks to the advanced spindle heat displacement prediction system that incorporates spindle speed commands - one of the main factors of spindle heat displacement.
Machine Design
Heat Displacement Compensation for Factory Temperature Changes
Yamazaki Mazak has performed extensive testing in a variety of environments in a temperature controlled room and has used the results to develop a control system that automatically compensates for temperature changes. For example the VERTICAL CENTER NEXUS 410A-II realizes machine heat displacement less than 8 μm (0.0003") in a room temperature change of 8℃(14.4 F)。

Players, coaches and fans expressed outrage as word spread that an assistant Jets coach trips a player during a game on Sunday.
Sal Alosi has admitted that he did trip Miami Dolphins player Nolan Carroll during Sunday's game and did so intentionally.
Alosi has since issued both public and private apologies to the individuals and the public. He stated that his actions were inexcusable and did not reflect the organization at all.
That may not be enough for the team or the NFL. Both are looking into the incident to determine which step should be taken next.
It definitely is not enough for those who were shocked by the action. Many have been calling for the firing of the coach over this incident.
Carroll was running along the sideline during a punt. Alosi leaned in and used his knee to trip the player. Fortunately, no one was injured.
The Jets ended up losing the game 10 to 6.

Here are some easy budget minded design ideas that we like from the Better Homes and Gardens site.. You can click on the link for all of their ideas but these are the ones that inspired us.
- Love the white chaise. It would look perfect in our beachy sun room for a cozy place to read, use the laptop or watch tv.
- A coffee table can really add pizazz to a room with flowers, books, and neat storage boxes to house remotes, etc.
- The shabby chic shadow box frame houses family memories which can be switched out occasionally as the family grows.
- A vintage bread box or canister can provide a decorative touch but also provide needed storage.
- How cute are these decorative jars in the laundry room holding detergent, bleach, dryer sheets, and other wash day needs.
- Finally, pillows in natural soft palette colors accent a porch retreat.
Thanks, BHG, for some budget savvy inspiration to put to use at this old house. These are our Picks of the Week for week of July 3, 2011!

Whether you want to renew, realign or reinvent your career, our three-phase coaching process is based on a proven transition model that provides you the structure and flexibility you need to successfully design and navigate your career transformation.
Because the career decisions and transitions for seasoned professionals are more significant, personal and complex in midlife, our work goes deeper than most traditional career coaching service. At the beginning of each engagement, we will map out a plan that is customized to meet your needs, timeframe and aspirational career and personal development goals.
Phase 1 Self-Discovery – REEVALUATE | REFLECT | RECLAIM
This phase is designed to help you "take stock," giving you the rare opportunity to tell your career and life story, appreciate what has influenced and shaped you, gather the wisdom from lessons learned, and get to the heart of what makes you unique. This is the foundation work of all of our programs where you will name your gifts and talents, unique strengths, guiding values, knowledge, experience, and true passions; assess what is working and what's not; and decide what you want to hold on to or let go of for the next phase of your career.
Phase 2 Visioning Possibilities – VISUALIZE | EXPLORE | COMMIT
This phase gives you permission to dream, imagine your next chapter, and describe its essence without censoring yourself. Unimagined possibilities emerge and you become empowered, engaged and inspired by a new dream, a new vision for your future. Your vision is what calls you and compels you to action - bringing focus back to your North Star - the values and priorities that guide your decisions, the passions and aspirations that motivate you, the purpose that gives meaning to your work. It is here, that you'll also identify implications for action and non-action. You'll name potential obstacles, limiting beliefs and assumptions that can stand in your way, but no longer serve your highest goals. You'll devise strategies for overcoming them, so they don't undermine your confidence and success.
Phase 3 Design Plan – STRATEGY | PREPARE | LAUNCH
Although there is much advice in books and on the Internet on how to search for a job, when it comes to creating your next career chapter, we believe it's critical to design a strategy that is personalized for you and have a thought partner to be there for support and guidance. Crafting your next career chapter is a creative process and thus, it rarely happens in a linear way. It starts with a clear intention and followed with a well-thought-out plan that leverages your unique strengths, experience and style. We will help you to create a strategic road map that defines your objectives, identifies steps to take to explore and test options, and prepares you to authentically present yourself and effectively connect with the marketplace. The real results happen when "the rubber meets the road" and you move from thinking and talking to action. We will be there to guide and encourage you as you launch your plan and bring your vision into reality.
Nancy McCaughey Coaching provides a safe environment for you to explore, clarify, affirm, discover, and claim what makes you unique, what matters most, and what you're meant to do.

Berry Patriotic Fruit Pizza Recipe/
Looking for the perfect treat to bring to your Fourth of July barbecue? My mom's famous [Berry Patriotic] Fruit Pizza recipe has got you covered - that's right, sugar cookie covered in whipped deliciousness and topped with fresh fruit.
My mom always taught us to never go somewhere empty handed - and this was her signature dish (especially in the summertime) to whip up for my younger brothers and me to bring to a friend's house. It seemed like she pulled fruit pizzas out of thin air. This recipe is almost that easy - you're not even making the cookie dough yourself (but there's no need to tell anyone that!) Whether it's Fourth of July or another summer event, this is my go-to thing to bring whenever I'm invited somewhere because it's quick, simple, affordable, and people go crazy for it!
Sure, you could spend hours slaving away over a complicated recipe you found on Pinterest (and it's true, sometimes I love doing that) but you could also whip this together in 10 minutes and be out there enjoying your 4th of July already. You can even make the topping ahead of time (it will stay fresh in the fridge for 2-3 days). One thing that's taken me some time to accept is that you can't always do it all in the kitchen (and in life) - making homemade macarons for a 20 person party is just not always necessary. Whether you're a dedicated foodie or have no idea what you're doing in the kitchen, sometimes you just need to simplify. This recipe does just that - and will still leave everyone wowed by your patriotic pie!
Berry Patriotic Fruit Pizza Recipe
makes 10-12 squares
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 8 minutes (while cookie is cooking)
Total Time: 20 minutes
- 1 package or roll sugar cookie dough (Substitute: chocolate chip cookie dough) I love buying pre-made cookie dough, like this "slice and bake" roll or this "break and bake" package. You can also buy sugar cookie mix. If you're an overachiever, you can make your cookie dough from scratch.
- 1 - 8 oz. package cream cheese
- 1/2 of an 8 oz. tub Cool Whip (Feel free to substitute "Light" or "Sugar Free" versions)
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar (Substitute: 1/2 cup marshmallow fluff)
- 1-2 cups cut fruit, for topping (I'm using strawberries and blueberries to keep in theme with Fourth of July, but any fruit works!)
No Grocery Guide for this recipe because it's pretty straightforward. All the info you need is included in the ingredient list and the recipe.
Dietary Substitutions
Gluten Free: Substitute a gluten-free cookie mix as your base.
Vegetarian Friendly
Dairy Free: Substitute the Cool Whip and cream cheese with So Delicious Dairy Free CocoWhip and either 8 oz. of cream cheese alternatives, like the one at Trader Joe's or 1/2 cup of marshmallow fluff. If you're using fluff, feel free to cut the powdered sugar and just use 1 whole cup of fluff instead. If cream cheese substitute is easy to find, use that, but if not don't hesitate to use fluff - my mom adds this to her normal recipe half the time anyway!
Not Vegan Friendly
0. Preheat the oven to 350°F. If you didn't buy pre-made cooking dough, follow the directions on your cookie package to make your cookie dough.
1. Once your cookie dough is made, you'll want to arrange it in a 13x9 baking dish so that it covers the entire bottom of the dish. The best way to do this is to place small scoops of cookie dough throughout the dish, and use your hands to press down the dough into one big, rectangular cookie. You can use a rolling pin (or the side of a drinking glass) to make this easier.
2. Put your cookie in the oven and watch it carefully: nothing is worse than overcooked cookies - and it seems like that happens to me way too often. My best advice is to take it out sooner than you think. While your dough is cooking...
3. Combine 1/2 of your Cool Whip 8 oz. tub with 1/2 cup of powdered sugar and an entire 8 oz. package of cream cheese in a mixing bowl. The easiest way to combine is with an electric hand mixer. You could try a blender, too, or most definitely use a KitchenAid if you're fancy and have one of those already (if so, I'm jealous!). Mix until smooth.
4. Once your cookie is done cooking, let it cool (speed it up by putting it in the fridge).
5. Once cooled, top the cookie with your Cool Whip cream cheese mixture, spreading evenly across the whole surface.
6. Top with fresh fruit. For your "Berry Patriotic" American flag: use blueberries as your "stars" and sliced strawberries as your "stripes". Cut into squares for serving.
Leftovers, Storing, & Extra Ingredients
LEFTOVERS - I have eaten this for breakfast. That is all.
STORING - Store in the fridge. Feel free to make this the night before (or just make the topping the night before, and assemble in the morning). It will store overnight in the fridge. Once you make it, it's best to enjoy within 2-3 days.
EXTRA INGREDIENTS - Top fruit with extra Cool Whip for a semi-healthy fruit salad. Cool Whip is also awesome on pancakes, brownies, ice cream, a spoon, etc. etc. If you have extra of the combined topping, you're only allowed to eat that plain. With a spoon. Just like I do.

Letters from the President
CBC President's Message Spring 2019
Hello All,
Our Chesapeake Bay Chapter has had several members who have been key in the history of the ACBS.
Among them was Ginger Martus (who also belonged to other chapters ). Sadly, she passed away not so long ago. Although she was a small person in stature, her passion was enormous. She had tremendous drive and a commitment to "Save the old boats", a slogan which appeared at the top of her newsletter "Boneyard Boats". Indeed, her knowledge of boats and her efforts to educate people about them, as well as her ability to persuade people to learn to appreciate them, has not been surpassed by anyone that I know of. For those who never had the opportunity to spend any time with her, I can simply say that she was a phenomenal person.
Over much of the last year we had received messages that the Chesapeake Bay Chapter of the ACBS was a beneficiary in her will. We really didn't know the full significance until November, when we received a check. I can't say what the amount is in this public forum, but any member who has questions can contact me and I will be happy to give you full information. What I can say is that for a club of our size, her gift will allow us to do things that we could never have imagined before.
The question is what?
Everyone on the Board of Directors is in agreement that we should take time, perhaps years, to determine what we want to do with her gift. We don't know that we will ever receive a gift like this again. For now it is safely invested for protection and growth.
That said, it is my belief that in the meantime, we should not just forget that it is there. It makes no sense to simply say in a few years that the money has been sitting long enough, let's do something with it. We are not speaking of a fine wine coming of age.
The time to put forth our dreams and wishes is now.
In my business and I'm sure that it is true for many of you, there is a sequence of events to get from concept to finished product. I tend to break things down into 1. Research, 2. Planning and 3. Construction. In my experience the quality of the end product is fully dependent upon the quality of how the previous steps were handled. It is no different from preparing your wood properly before you apply varnish.
In this spirit, I am calling a Membership Meeting on March 3rd, 2019 at 1pm at the Lubrano Building in Annapolis. I am asking all Board Members to attend and equally important, any member of our chapter who can, whether or not you have ever attended a meeting. Attending does not imply any further commitment from you, however, it is an opportunity to be involved in something important.
We are at the very beginning of the "research stage". This is the time to be creative, discuss possibilities, to come together as a group and share dreams that we may be in the luxurious position of bringing to fruition. We need to listen to each other. Big ideas, small ideas – the point is to come out of the meeting with list of possibilities. No decisions will be made at this meeting. Decisions come later.
I expect that this will be a dynamic meeting. Again, if you are a member I urge to you to come. If you can't, but have ideas, please write or call me and I will be happy to share them at the meeting. We will have light refreshments and a good time. If you've never been to one of our meetings, this is a great opportunity to see what a fine club we have and build new friendships.
Stay warm and we'll see you at the meeting,
John Into, Pres. Chesapeake Bay Chapter ACBS-CBC
Meeting Date : March 3rd, 2019
Place : Lower floor Meeting Room
Conte Lubrano Building
130 Lubrano Drive
Annapolis, MD 21401

The popularity of "Fortnite: Battle Royale" continues to surge and the free game is raking in more than $200 a month in revenue for its creator, Epic Games. While "Fortnite" is free-to-play, players can purchase a digital currency, v-bucks, to unlock cosmetic items and other content within the game. Players can also earn v-bucks over time by playing the game, though the rate of return is rather slow.
Items purchased with v-bucks don't impact the game directly, but the coolest looking cosmetics come with a high price tag. There are those willing to pay $50 or more to buy a certain outfit, while others need to play for hours to unlock the same skin. As a result, some "Fortnite" players resort to seeking out free v-bucks offers online, in an effort to avoid investing their own time and money.
Unfortunately, offers for free v-bucks are largely predatory, providing a front for phishing websites and other scams. These free v-bucks offers are primarily shared through social media and redirect the user to a separate website. These websites often ask users to provide their "Fortnite" account login, email, or other personal information. In some cases, they request the user to prove they are human by completing other "free offers" or surveys for things like iPhones and gift cards. Other sites require users to share specific links or invite friends to earn points towards v-bucks.

While most adults should be familiar with these sorts of phishing scams, "Fortnite" has a large audience of young children. Based on its terms of service, "Fortnite" requires players to be 12-years-old or older to make an account, but younger players have no problem accessing the free game on their own. But when parents aren't willing to fund their child's gaming, offers for free v-bucks immediately become appealing.
ZeroFOX Research confirmed more than 53,000 alerts for "Fortnite"-related scams in a one-month period between September and October. The vast majority, 86 percent, came from social media posts while specific web domains and YouTube videos made up the rest. ZeroFox reports that more than 4,770 domains are currently offering v-bucks scams, and roughly 1,400 different YouTube videos have combined for more than a million views. Scammers have also targeted "Fortnite" players on mobile phones by offering fake "Fortnite" apps and downloads for Android devices.

Demand for v-bucks will persist so long as "Fortnite" remains popular, but players and parents should be careful about trying to cut corners with third-party offers. The best way to avoid scams is to only purchase v-bucks directly from the "Fortnite" store — and never share your account information online.

If you work in the creative industries you could be entitled to specific tax reliefs. Also known as cultural industries, creative industries refers to a range of economic activities such as video games, design, new media, television and film production, theatre and orchestra.
The creative industries is now worth £76.9 billion per year to the UK economy, and the government is keen to encourage more creative business activity through a variety of tax reliefs. Specific tax reliefs already exist to encourage further investment in creative industries. These work in a similar way to the less specific R & D tax reliefs, but are often left unclaimed by businesses who are simply not aware of the potential tax savings.
What you could be claiming
Provided the company meets the requirements of a qualifying creative sector company, it could be entitled to:
- An enhanced deduction from taxable profits or;
- If it is loss making, a repayable tax credit.
The costs that are taken into consideration are those associated with, for example, pre-production, design and testing. Therefore, it is just as important to retain the records of such expenditure if you are going to make a claim for the reliefs.
These reliefs are actively encouraged by the government and provide a great cash flow opportunity through potential tax savings.

Sounders Insider
Sounders looking for goal-scorer as window nears
Once the window closes, the chances of a major acquisition for this season's playoff run reduces dramatically. There will still be a couple of weeks left before the MLS trade deadline. And fully unrestricted players could be signed. But that's it.
We spoke today with coach Sigi Schmid about the nearing deadline, and what the club hopes to accomplish:
"We're always looking. We're always looking and following up on things and pursuing things. Sometimes with the transfer window, some things will succeed, some things won't succeed. You never know. I've seen things things blow up at the 11th hour, 59th minute, 59th second; and sometimes you get things in place early and they go very smoothly. … All I can tell you is we're always looking to improve our team when we can.
"I think this year you're looking at the future as well. We really haven't had that really consistent goal-scorer, per se. We're looking for that. We've had different people come in and chip in. Roger Leveque has gotten goals and Fredy (Montero) has gotten goals. We've gotten goals out of midfield, which is a good thing, but that might be something that's there. Sometimes it's a situation, too, where somebody comes available to you that you don't necessarily expect. So maybe it's not a position that you're searching for, but the quality of the player is so great that you say, OK, maybe this is a good move for us because we can make these moves and that makes us stronger. You seek and you look for certain things and you try to find certain things, but sometimes things become available to you. I think Mauro (Rosales) is a good example of that before the season where we weren't necessarily looking for a winger, where we already had (Alvaro) Fernandez and Steve Zakuani. But he became available and he was of such quality where we saw him train we said, 'Wait a second, it would be a mistake to bypass him. He's going to make us stronger.'"

Yes, Barrington Real Estate Co. has been around real estate and property management for over 53 years but you can't call us Old School….
We are constantly evolving to meet the demands of property management in our changing market place. Over the last 3 years we have utilized our software and technology to create a seamless, mobile friendly connection with our tenants and clients.
Tenant Portal
- We all know that writing checks to pay bills is a thing of the past for most, so we have made it simple for tenants to pay their rent online or set up automatic payments through our mobile friendly tenant portal.
- Tenants now have the option to take a photo and upload it to their online maintenance request and submit at their convenience.
- They can check their balance, request copies of documents, send messages, and get status updates all from their phone or tablet.
Owner Portal
- Owners now have immediate access to their current and previous statements with just a few taps on their screen. All statements are generated and uploaded to the owner portal each month and then stored for future access. Copies of receipts, invoices, inspection reports are all available anytime, anywhere.
- We now have the capability to accept credit card and E-check payments through the contributions tab within the portal. This speeds up the wait time for large repairs and allows the owner to take care of emergency expenses even if they are out town.
- Documents can be easily shared and stored under the documents tab. Leases, insurance information, rent rolls, and tenant information can all be requested and received through the portal to be accessed at a moments notice.
- In today's rental market, it's not enough to just put a sign in the yard or post an ad in the paper. Barrington knows that renters have more options now than ever before and we know that our listings must stand out amongst the crowd.
- Each property that we list has a virtual tour available for viewing on our mobile friendly website. Prospective tenants have an opportunity to get a feel for the property with just a tap.
- Each property listed on our website is also submitted to 23 other websites like Zillow, Hot Pads, Rent.com, Realtor.com, and Trullia just to name a few. We have also started posting and linking our listings to all of our social media outlets like Facebook or Linkedin, etc. This increases traffic back to our website where more of our properties can be viewed.
- Once the renters have found their future home, the ease of access continues with the application process.
- Not only can potential tenants apply for the home of their choosing on their phone, but they can also take pictures of their check stubs or drivers license and submit them to our leasing department along with any other requested documents.
- The application fee can be collected online after completing the application and processing can begin without even leaving home.
As demands in the rental world change, you can rest assured that Barrington Real Estate will change with it. We are constantly striving to be leaders in the market place and remaining stagnant in old ideas is not how you become an industry leader. Let us be the property management team to carry you to your success.

I'm sure that academic purists would heap criticism upon me for recommending Spark Notes (http://www.sparknotes.com/), but the website is helpful to writers for at least three reasons:
- The Study Guides section offers potential customers the opportunity to browse for the products they want, on topics ranging from literature and philosophy to math and science.
- The College Search section provides a good search engine for general and demographic data for most American colleges, and you can enter each college's website from there.
- The "Writing" link in the Study Guides section gives excellent tips on grammar, diction, punctuation, and mechanics.
Of course, you may find other reasons to hook into http://www.sparknotes.com/. Happy navigating!

Fall engagement session...better late than never?!
So I know I have done a lot of talking about taking "off" in Dec but mostly what I was trying to do was to get new obligations off my plate so I could get caught up on a few things. Just for the record, I am ALWAYS happy to connect with clients, answer questions or inquiries so please never hestitate to contact me! Anywho...I realized that I had a few sessions from the fall madness that I never shared.
Here's just a small handful from a session this past October. Nicole described their style as little bit country and we had fun making their style come to life. Nicole had some cute ideas via Pinterest that she wanted to try. I am all for creating our own versions of images that clients love on Pinterest. Best of luck planning to Luke & Nicole! I cannot wait for their July 2013 wedding!

Liverpool are closing in on a deal to sign James Milner.
The midfielder is available on a free - he's out of contract with Manchester City.
It could be a case of one in, one out at Anfield with Raheem Stering eager to depart Liverpool. Liverpool legend Graeme Souness reckons Raheem Sterling is "miles off" becoming the finished article and should to stay at the club. He says Sterling should be focusing on improving before looking elsewhere.

We all know that for a woman finding the perfect pair of jeans is like an epic quest: it requires research, planning and the packing of provisions (bottle of water, different heel heights, a snack, Xanax) for an excursion that seems nearly impossible. Many women have left their houses like Indiana Jones, bound for their local retailer on this quest, kissing their loved ones on the forehead because, well, they're not sure when they'll be back.
You've no doubt seen the ads by now so here's the skinny: Levi's has decided to make the process a lot faster and simpler for us blue jean babies by creating Levi's® Curve ID, a fit process and resulting line of custom fit jeans made to fit the curves of our bodies. The fit system is based on – wait for it – the SHAPE of your body, not the SIZE. Oh yes, science has done something right by us, ladies: the process, a result of studying more than 60,000 body scans and listening to us women around the world has resulted in three types of denim that can be used to fit all body shapes and sizes:
Slight Curve (for straight figured) jeans are designed to define a woman's waist while accentuating her curves. Key: if your jeans usually fit in the hips and thighs but are too tight in the waist, this is your jean.
Demi Curve (for even proportions) are created to flatter a woman's waist while smoothing her shape. Key: if your jeans usually fit in the waist but don't flatter your actual figure, this is your pair.
Bold Curve (for genuinely curvy ladies) are designed to hug the waist without gapping or pulling (can we get an Amen from the choir?). Key: if your jeans usually fit in the hips and thighs but gap in the back, this one is for you.
The process has been rolled out in Levi's stores across the country, so put down the torch and the bullwhip, dear Denim Searchers, because the Quest for Fabulous Denim is over! I was fitted for a pair and was honestly surprised to find that I'm a Demi Curve. Which one is right for you? Go to your local Levi's Store (directory here), get fitted and check it out!

You're Damaging Your Brand …
by Erik K. Johnson
You're damaging your brand.
(photo by Lastdays1)
Three comments doesn't equal success.
I really wanted to scream. It is frustrating to see people blindly damage their brand. Today, I read a blog post by a gentleman who is willingly doing just that.
Recently, I wrote a blog post entitled "I think we're lost". I described how the two hosts spent the first 10 minutes of a 30-minute business podcast discussing the weather instead of their podcast topic. Wasting time like this damages the credibility of their show. The hosts are not delivering what any new listener would expect to receive from a business podcast.
As of today, they have received three comments on that particular show. The host has written a blog post proclaiming success with his show, because his tangent received three comments. In the past, he would typically jump right into pertinent content and receive no comments.
Lately, he has been opening the show with these tangents. He received one negative message from a listener who felt these musings before the true content were a waste of time. He feels his "new" approach is justified, because he received three positive comments on the show.
The host stated that since the prior method wasn't receiving any comments, good or bad, this new strategy must be better. This thinking is flawed. Three comments only means three people thought it was amusing enough to comment. That's it. It means nothing more. The fact that nobody commented on the previous shows with the direct content method also does not mean no listener found the shows entertaining or valuable. It simply means the content wasn't special enough to elicit a comment.
This host should judge the success of his podcast by the growth and overall listenership of the show. I think if he continues with this tangent strategy, he will surely see his growth stagnate. He will also probably see the size of his audience shrink, because he is no longer living up to his brand's promise.
If you want more comments, deliver better content that stirs emotions. Comments for the sake of getting comments really proves nothing. Sure, I love comments. However, I'll take a growing, engaged audience over comments every time. Audience growth and engagement will move you forward.
Three comments doesn't equal success. You're damaging your brand.

Our results demonstrate that antigenic strength is a key factor in the generation of IL-10 Treg in vivo, as characterized by changes in proliferative capacity, cytokine secretion, acquisition of regulatory function and protection from EAE. Administration of MBP Ac1–9[4K] i. n. limits induction of EAE in H2u mice, with higher affinity analogs Ac1–9[4A] and Ac1–9[4Y] providing greater protection 1. A TCR Tg mouse on the H2u background (Tg4) was generated in order to circumvent the limitations imposed by low T-cell precursor frequency in the WT mouse 3. As shown in Fig. 1, repeated administration of the highest affinity peptide, Ac1–9[4Y], provided selleck screening library complete protection against
the disease, while i.n. Ac1–9[4A] and Ac1–9[4K] treatment were less effective. This included a graded effect on incidence, day of onset and peak of clinical disease score that correlated with individual
peptide affinity for H-2 Au (Table 1). However, the Tg4 CD4+ T-cell repertoire is heterogeneous with respect to TCR expression whereby a proportion of the cells express endogenous α chains as a result of gene recombination 10. It follows that preferential selection of CD4+ T cells with the alternatively rearranged TCR-α genes could provide a possible explanation for tolerance induction in the Tg4 mouse model. These experiments were therefore repeated using Tg4 mice on the Rag1−/− deficient background and provided similar results (Table 1). These findings show that, similar to the WT model, the affinity of the CYC202 clinical trial i.n. administered peptide for MHC also influences the effectiveness of tolerance induction in Tg4 mice as well as Tg4 Rag1−/− mice. In order to interpret the EAE protection data, we first examined the effect of i.n. peptide treatment on the extent of Tg4 cell activation in vivo using a CFSE-labeled cell transfer model. As shown in Fig. 2, administration of a single i.n. dose of MBP Ac1–9[4K], [4A] or [4Y] to mice previously injected with naïve Tg4 CFSE labeled splenocytes resulted
in their activation, albeit to varying degrees. CFSE+CD4+ T cells MycoClean Mycoplasma Removal Kit from the peptide-treated recipient mice displayed at least one round of division and up-regulated the expression of CD69 on their surface relative to PBS controls (Fig. 2A and B, respectively). Upon challenge with Ac1–9[4K], [4A] or [4Y], CFSE+CD4+ T cells proliferated with a division index, i.e. the average number of times that each responding cell had divided, of 0.11, 0.49 and 1.04, respectively, compared with that of 0.02 upon PBS challenge (Fig. 2A). The percentage of activated, CD69 expressing CFSE+CD4+ T cells (both divided and undivided) increased accordingly, with a total of around 19.8, 30.7 and 38.8% observed in Ac1–9[4K]-, [4A]- and [4Y]-treated compared with 3.3% in PBS-treated recipient mice. Thus, the ability of individual MBP Ac1–9 analogs to activate naïve Tg4 CD4+ T cells in vivo correlates with their affinity. We next investigated whether the differential effects of i.n.

I was watching Russian YouTube videos on ways to create square and rectangle bases in paper baskets. The top is square(ish) and the bottom is a woven rectangle that used a form to hold the "warp" tubes.
Next round of colors starting. I think I'm going to focus on finishing this side before doing the other. I'd like to have the entire piece finished by the end of the month as I have a coupe of sales the beginning of April and would like to be able to use it on the sale table.
Form weaving with sari ribbon again. This ribbon is a lot more supple so I think the finished bag will work much better. EK liked the rainbows coming through the glass door and wanted to catch those as well.
Another Bias lace panel using Darn Good Yarn's Silk Cloud. I still need to seam the *last* one and am working hard at putting that off. I don't like seaming very much (not at all) but I haven't found a better way to make these shrugs. Perhaps I should use my newly made sketch book to figure out a way to make it work out.

For Immediate Release · By Monica Vega · email@example.com
St. Mary's City, Md. – First-year head coach Bernie Stratchko nabbed his first-ever coaching victories Saturday afternoon at the Hawk's Nest with a pair of wins over Mount Saint Mary (N.Y.) College in a home-opening doubleheader. The St. Mary's College of Maryland baseball team posted a 10-2 win in the first game before holding on for a 6-5 triumph in the nightcap.
St. Mary's 10, Mt. St. Mary (N.Y.) 2 (Game 1)
How It Happened
- The Seahawks would have a total of nine RBI as sophomore centerfielder Lucas Kraft (Clarksburg, Md./Clarksburg), first-year first baseman Jay Hammett (Coltons Point, Md./Chopticon), and junior infielder Dan McCann (Laurel, Md./Atholton) would all contribute two RBI each.
- Hammett, McCann, and junior catcher Sean Goodie (Rising Sun, Md./Rising Sun) would grab a team-best two hits while sophomore Holden Marshall (Baltimore, Md./Friends) scored three runs.
- St. Mary's would take a strong lead early in the second and fourth innings, racking up four runs in each inning for an 8-0 lead.
- The Knights would pick up two runs in the top of the fifth as first-years Nick Rizzo (Smithtown, N.Y.) and Peter Knights (White Plains, N.Y.) scored on a RBI single and a wild pitch, respectively.
- The Seahawks would answer in the bottom of the fifth by earning their last pair of runs for the game. Goodie would double to left field to bring in Marshall and then Goodie would score on junior second baseman Joe Bavaro's (Brick, N.J./Point Pleasant Borough) singled to left field for the final run of the game.
- First-year RHP Zach Thompson (West River, Md./Spalding) earned his first career win as Thompson pitched six innings with a season-best five strikeouts. Senior RHP Graham Haliskoe (Middletown, N.J./Middletown North) would make his second appearance of the season, throwing a scoreless inning with one strikeout.
- Junior RHP Christopher Ruggiero (Newburgh, N.Y.) would take the loss, dropping his first of the season.
- St. Mary's would finish the first game with 10 runs on nine hits and no errors.
St. Mary's 6, Mt. St. Mary (N.Y.) 5 (Game 2)
How It Happened
- The Seahawks would face a much closer game with MSMC in game two, capturing six runs on nine hits and two errors. The Knights would take away five runs on seven hits and one error.
- St. Mary's broke a 1-1 draw with four runs in the fourth. Senior third baseman Colin Thatcher (Germantown, Md./Seneca Valley) would kick off the four-run rally when Thatcher cracked a two-RBI single to left field, driving in Marshall and Bavaro. Thatcher would then turn around and score off a sacrifice bunt from senior second baseman Zach Rowe (Davidsonville, Md./Calvert Hall).
- St. Mary's would increase its lead to 6-1 in the fifth inning as sophomore Brandon Snow (Owings, Md./Northern) scored as a pinch runner for Bavaro on a crushing triple by Marshall to right field.
- In the top of the sixth, the Knights would score three runs and pull within with two. A ground out third base ended the inning and MSMC left one on base.
- In a final attempt to rally for a win, junior first baseman Chris Introcaso (Newburgh, N.Y.) knocked one out of the park with one out on the board. With two outs, the Knights loaded bases on an error, a walk, and a single. A fielder's choice at second cut the rally short.
- Senior LHP Jimmy Robey (Kensington, Md./Gonzaga [D.C.]) recorded his first win of the season, giving up one run on three hits in five innings. In first appearance of the season, junior RHP Matt Henigan (Bel Air, Md./C. Milton Wright) collected the save in throwing the last inning.
Up Next for the Seahawks
- The Seahawks will be back in action on Sunday, February 19 against Mt. St. Mary (N.Y.) at 11:00 a.m. to finish up the non-conference three-game series.

So that was unexpected. I guess I should've learned last year to just stop trying to figure this team out (a lesson Bill Barnwell should just embrace, instead of this trying-way-too-hard analysis on Grantland). I – and nearly everybody else – looked at the schedule and said "9-7 with some breaks, 7-9 without 'em." Which could still easily happen. But hell, if you can get pressure and take the ball away, you can beat anybody. Back to "whatever, just along for the ride" we go!
Things I will always like, no matter who they are against: 56-3 wins. Things get interesting next week, though.
I feel compelled to talk about 9/11, even though I really have nothing to say. Being a general geek about history, I was planning to watch a fair share of documentaries, because that is what geeks do. But I immediately learned that I could not pull anything "out" of the deluge of media coverage. Not closure, not value, not perspective. Everything just made me sad. Not just reliving the awfulness of the events themselves, but in thinking about how they changed our country and the world, and not really for the better. So I didn't really watch them. I don't feel like I missed out.

no, i'm not dying right now. i was at the fuddrucker's in el toro the other day, trying to take a few pictures of some really spectacular mercuries that had pulled into the lot. minding my own business, lost in my car zen. zoning out after a day of work.
an older couple came over to inquire about what i do with the pictures. told them i do it for myself, and post them on my blog. they walked away.
five minutes later, the lady came back over and asked if i'd take a picture of their car. said she had some dying relative she was going to be visiting, and wanted to show him/her the car. ok, i'll take her word for it. it was a really nice car anyway.
i wouldn't have shot it otherwise, because both the hood and trunk were up. i took several shots of it, but i think this one probably turned out best. sun was starting to go down, so the shots from the other side had too much of my tripod shadow in them, and i don't feel like retouching them.
so here is the shot, and i think i'm done for the night.
also, anyone who is stopping by here on the referral from my better half's blog, looking for macro shots, search here for hood ornaments, or over at my flickr site for more [search for hood ornaments or check out the flower set].
thanks for the shout out d.
