Wigan's Tommy Leuluai shares thoughts on his future at Wigan.
Former New Zealand International previews February's World Club Challenge against Sydney Roosters.
Excitement for WWC continues to gather pace ahead of highly-anticipated clash of champions.
With two weeks until the World Club Challenge between Wigan Warriors and Sydney Roosters (17th February), hear what Warriors half-back Tommy Leuluai has to say on his future plans at the Club.
Evergreen Thomas Leuluai says 2020 Wigan Warriors coach Shaun Edwards will help determine whether this is the final season of a glittering career.
Leuluai, 35, isn't sure how to broach the subject with the man who will replace Adrian Lam at the end of the year - but he says his 39-Test international career is definitely over after a talk with Kiwis coach Michael Maguire.
"We'll see how the season goes - I think a couple of months in we'll make the call," Leuluai says.
"Either I'll make a call or it will be made for me, one of the two! There's no point me even making the decision yet, we've got a new coach coming in next year. He'll most probably have a say in that. We'll see. I'm not too fussed. I'm not putting any pressure on myself.
"It's really unusual, what's happening at the club but as players we don't really think about it. We come in, get told what we have to do, train…"
But the 2017 World Cup did mark the end of the road for Leuluai in black, he confirms.
"I had a chat with Madge (Maguire) halfway through last year, he was seeing how I felt and it just didn't feel right, I suppose.
"I felt it was enough for me. They've got so many good youngsters coming through. Yeah it is tough … actually no, not really. I'm a realist. You're not going to play forever."
And that means the World Club Challenge against Sydney Roosters on February 17 shapes as one of the last handful of big occasions for the man who won the Harry Sunderland Trophy for his performance in the 2010 grand final.
He knows the WCC is still searching for respect Down Under.
"When I was back at the (New Zealand) Warriors, you see the game and you could see they didn't take it as much as people over this side of the world do," he admitted.
"I don't know, what can you do about that really? It's not up to us. Over here they really like the challenge of playing against the NRL teams. The NRL is looked at like the benchmark in rugby league."
The former London Broncos no.7 says he felt out of place when Wigan beat Cronulla to lift the world title in 2017.
"It was a tough one for me because I wasn't involved in the winning of the premiership the year - it was a weird one, it felt like I was taking someone else's shirt," he said.
"But I enjoyed it. For a lot of players, they don't go to the NRL, they don't play internationals, it's your only chance to play against these guys.
"You look at the team that's coming over this year, some of the best to ever play the game like Cooper Cronk and blokes like that. It's a great challenge for these young guys. We've got a fairly young squad so I know they're really looking forward to it.
"Fingers crossed we can go out there and put a decent performance in."
Leuluai appreciates having a former international half, Adrian Lam, as his new coach. "There would have been a lot of pressure on him, I guess, coming in with us winning," Leuluai observed.
"He's been respectful of what's gone before with Waney (Shaun Wane), he's gone out of his way to make sure there's respect for that. But he's added his twist to things. I think the boys have bought into what he's done.
"We didn't go too bad last year so it would be silly to come in and change everything. He's changed a few things but it might be a few weeks before you start to see it.
"I don't think we're going to say 'it's a transition year, don't tackle as hard'."

Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage.

It's Winter's fault. There's no other explanation. Because I am not the type of person that would, under normal weather circumstances, dye her hair blue. I didn't do it as a teen or in college and yet here I am, with blue hair. Is this a mini-midlife crisis? Is this because I'm turning 40 in a few months? Who knows? But I do know who is to blame: Winter.
For the record, I haven't gone completely Avatar, it's not my whole head, just a chunk–a messy chunk. Here's the skinny: My daughter, for her 9th birthday, wanted to put a little color in her hair. Fun! It's hair right? So a couple of weeks ago I took her to my good friend Barb's salon and Maylie walked out on cloud nine with a cool purplish-tealish non-permanent streak in her almost black hair. It faded quicker than we all expected so a couple of days ago, Barb put in this gorgeous midnight blue:
Before we left, Barb held out the bowl of leftover blue. "You want to take this home?"
I turned giddy. You're sending me home with the blue? I think I even laughed like a crazy person when I walked out with the bowl.
At home:
Elijah! I have blue hair dye! Want some?
Ah, No Mom.
Doug. Blue! Blue hair dye!
Yeah, I don't think so.
I eyed the dog. She could certainly pull off blue. But she doesn't stop moving and therefore the whole house would be blue.
Somebody had to use this beautiful blue. The blue was too pretty to throw away. The blue was making me happy. And it's been SO COLD for SO LONG and that has been making me UNHAPPY. Blue = happy. Cold = unhappy. The blue blob was antithesis to cold! The blue blob is enemy to WINTER! I chose HAPPY! I chose BLUE!
And so, WITHOUT pony-tailing, bobby pinning, or clipping down any of the rest of my hair, I recklessly grabbed a chunk of my hair, plopped a piece of foil under it, and told Doug to give it a good slathering. He did. Maybe a little too good. And I let that pretty, happy blue penetrate my hair for about thirty minutes. Ha! Take that winter! I'll show you!
Rinse. Wash. Dry.
Wow. I have blue hair. Wow. Blue hair. How'd that happen?
My slapdash streak of blue makes me happy, sometimes, and sometimes I want to know who took over my body for a half an hour. Sadly, impulsiveness sometimes means sloppy. Parts look green. Which, on the bright side, in a few weeks I can pin on St. Patrick's day. The point is, Winter is entirely to blame, and, what's more, the blue hasn't made the cold go away. At any rate, I plead
insanity winter. Winter made me do it.
I'm not alone in this, right? Winter affects your brain too, right? Anyone? Some days, it's just too cold to think straight. I propose we make winter perpetual scapegoat. Yes I ran that red, Officer but it's too cold to stop. I gotta keep moving or I'll freeze to death.
I guess that's not entirely fair, so I'll make a list of things I like about Winter.
Things I like about Winter:
- The freezer in the garage doesn't use any electricity
- The Olympics
I feel so much better now. Also, purple is a pretty color…

This is week 28 in our blog circle and our third week working with added light. In this image, of my favorite dog, Sadie, I am bouncing my flash straight up off the ceiling. I got catch lights in her eyes, but they are quite small- a telltale sign of flash I am told. When the kids get tired of being my model, I am left to experiment with the dog. I think she can just about roll her eyes at me too and often thinks, "Mom enough of the camera!"
Please follow along our circle to see my friend and fellow photographer, Cheryl Sawyer interpretation.

It's possible to get or download caterpillar-wiring diagram from several websites. If you take a close look at the diagram you will observe the circuit includes the battery, relay, temperature sensor, wire, and a control, normally the engine control module. With an extensive collection of electronic symbols and components, it's been used among the most completed, easy and useful wiring diagram drawing program. 5 3 Wiring Harness Stand Alone. The wiring diagram on the opposite hand is particularly beneficial to an outside electrician. Sometimes wiring diagram may also refer to the architectural wiring program. The simplest approach to read a home wiring diagram is to begin at the source, or the major power supply. Basically, the home wiring diagram is simply utilized to reveal the DIYer where the wires are.
If you can't locate the information, get in touch with the manufacturer. The info in the diagram doesn't indicate a power or ground supply. The intention of the fuse is to safeguard the wiring and electrical components on its circuit. A typical watch's basic objective is to tell you the good time of day. When selecting the best type of computer cable to fulfill your requirements, it is very important to consider your upcoming technology plans.
Installing a tachometer on your Vehicles can assist in preventing critical repair problems, however. You might have a weak ground issue. The way the brain learns is a subject that still requires a good deal of study. How it learns can be associated by how it is able to create memories.
In a parallel circuit, each unit is directly linked to the power supply, so each system gets the exact voltage. There are 3 basic sorts of standard light switches. The circuit needs to be checked with a volt tester whatsoever points. 5 3 Wiring Harness Stand Alone. Each circuit displays a distinctive voltage condition. You are able to easily step up the voltage to the necessary level utilizing an inexpensive buck-boost transformer and steer clear of such issues. The voltage is the sum of electrical power produced by the battery. Be sure that the new fuse isn't blown, and carries the very same amperage.
Each fuse is going to have a suitable amp rating for those devices it's protecting. The wiring is merely a bit complicated. Our automotive wiring diagrams permit you to relish your new mobile electronics in place of spend countless hours attempting to work out which wires goes to which Ford part or component. Overall the wiring is really straight forward. There's a lot wiring that you've got to tie into your truck's wiring harness, but it's much easier to do than it seems. A ground wire offers short circuit protection and there's no neutral wire used. There's one particular wire leading from the distributor which may be used for the tachometer.
When you have just a single cable going into the box, you're at the close of the run, and you've got the simplest scenario possible. All trailer plugs and sockets are extremely easy to wire. The adapter has the essential crosslinks between the signals. Wiring a 7-pin plug on your truck can be a bit intimidating when you're looking at it from beyond the box.
The control box may have over three terminals. After you have the correct size box and have fed the cable to it, you're almost prepared to permit the wiring begin. Then there's also a fuse box that's for the body controls that is situated under the dash. 5 3 Wiring Harness Stand Alone. You will find that every circuit has to have a load and every load has to have a power side and a ground side. Make certain that the transformer nameplate power is enough to supply the load that you're connecting.
The bulb has to be in its socket. Your light can be wired to the receiver and don't require supply additional capacity to light as it can get power from receiver. In the event the brake lights aren't working, a police officer may block the vehicle and issue a warning to create the repair within a particular time limit. Even though you would still must power the relay with a power source or battery. Verify the power is off before trying to attach wires. In case it needs full capacity to begin, it won't operate in any way.
Replacing thermostat on your own without a Denver HVAC technician can be quite harrowing if you don't hook up the wiring correctly. After the plumbing was cut out, now you can get rid of the old pool pump. It's highly recommended to use a volt meter to make sure there is no voltage visiting the motor, sometimes breakers do not get the job done properly, also you might have turned off the incorrect breaker. Remote distance is left up to 500m. You may use a superior engine ground. The second, that's the most frequently encountered problem, is a weak ground in the computer system. Diagnosing an electrical short can be extremely tough and costly.

Come May 2018, the way businesses and consumers handle the data they hold will alter profoundly. The one-year countdown to the GDPR is now well under way and with the implementation of the European Union's most significant cross-border regulation, the chaotic and rapidly evolving data landscape will be brought into line. Being informed about why it's coming into play and what the regulation is solving will help both organisations and individual citizens understand how they should approach data protection, whether this is becoming GDPR compliant or understanding their new data privacy rights.
Organisations doing business in the EU currently work under inconsistent data protection regulations, varying from country to country. A UK based accountancy firm that sent its sales data to marketing firms in Germany or France would have to understand the different data laws of each individual nation and adapt their processes accordingly, in many cases hiring consultants to ensure they complied with the appropriate regulations.
Outsourcing certain business operations, such as IT systems support, is another common cross-border action. An IT company based in Switzerland, providing systems support across the EU would have to allocate additional time and resources in order understand the patchwork of individual national laws covering processes from handling employee data and customer details to processing payment transactions. A single, all-inclusive regulation for organisations to comply with will make it easier for them to conduct business within the EU, as well as saving them time and resources; according to EU figures, having a blanket law on data protection will save the market an estimated €2.3 billion annually.
A consistent all-encompassing regulation that reduces demand on a company's time and resources is not the only factor behind the introduction of the GDPR. Research from PwC's economic crime survey 2016 reveals that as many as one in five businesses in the UK have not carried out a single fraud assessment in the last two years. Despite the fact that fraud and other economic crimes are on the rise, the findings are perhaps unsurprising. The constant flow of data transcending national boarders makes adapting to individual laws both difficult and time-consuming. As a result, self-regulation has become almost non-existent, with many businesses paying lip service to the 'guidelines' provided by different nations. However, with the implementation of the GDPR, organisations will have to demonstrate the systems and processes they have in place to protect customers from fraud. With the threat of a substantial fine looming over their heads if they fail to comply, more organisations will take measures to ensure they have appropriate measures in place to protect their customers from fraud and any other exploitation that could occur.
Financial scamming has become an epidemic and according to Financial Fraud Action, over a million cases of card, cheque, phone or online fraud were recorded in the six months from January to June 2016 – a 53% rise from the same period in 2015. Email deception, as well as phone and text-based scams, are the go-to methods of attack for scam artists. The ammunition for these attacks is provided by the almost endless stream of data-leak jackpots surfacing on the dark web that include customer and employee information.
The knock-on-effect on consumer confidence has been damaging. Repeated high-profile data breaches have lead more and more consumers to provide incorrect information online. Figures from market research agency Verve revealed 60% of consumers intentionally input false information when submitting personal data such as home addresses, phone numbers, email addresses and company names.
Consumers now see falsifying personal information as their right to protect their privacy. However, it has also led to businesses using invalid data for everything from marketing and sales campaigns to hiring potential employees. The GDPR will force companies to act on data security, putting in place processes and technology that prevents data breaches and data-theft oriented cyber-attacks and this in turn, albeit slowly, will see consumer confidence in business' online security increase. As both consumers and organisations will naturally prefer to purchase from, and do business with a compliant organisation, GDPR adherence will soon be seen as a competitive advantage to wield against rivals.
If self-regulation and pragmatism had worked, there would be far less data-breach headlines strewn across the front pages of the news and the EU may not have required GDPR. However, in order to protect its citizens, they needed to. Even though GDPR will in many cases require organisations to make significant changes to how they operate, the regulation will ultimately ensure greater protection of individual rights, provide organisations with more relevant and valuable data and bring security and stability to the increasingly complex world of data security.

Strawberry Banana Smoothie
Ahhhh, nothing gets me going in the morning quite like a delightful refreshing smoothie. Starbucks has those strawberry banana Vivano smoothies which I love so much but sometimes I don't have the time in the morning or I don't want to shell out the money for something I could easily make at home. These are super healthy and give you the kick start you need for a productive day.
Makes: 1 large smoothie
1- 6oz container of any flavor yogurt
1 Large Banana
2 Cups Frozen Strawberries
1 Cup Milk
Place all ingredients in a blender and pulse until smooth. If you like your smoothies a little thicker put less milk in and if you like them pretty liquid-y then put more milk in. Can't get much easier than that!

After the Swiss parliament passed into law the Federal Act on Financial Market Infrastructures ("FMIA") on 19 June 2015, the Federal Department of Finance, the Swiss Financial Markets Authority FINMA and the Swiss National Bank opened a consultation on three ordinances implementing the FMIA. The consultation closed 2 October 2015 and we expect the FMIA together with its implementing ordinances to enter into force on 1 January 2016 subject to the phasing-in of specific obligations. This briefing expands our more general briefing on Derivative Trading under the FMIA by focusing on the impact of the FMIA on foreign financial institutions and market counterparties with a special focuses on the impact of FMIA on foreign entities.
In the wake of the Dodd-Frank Act in the United States and EMIR, MiFID II and CSDR in the European Union, the FMIA seeks, on the one hand, to put in place a dedicated regulatory framework for financial market infrastructures, a broad concept encompassing stock exchanges, multilateral trading venues and organized trading venues, central depositories, central counterparties, payment sys- tems and trade repositories and, on the other hand, to regulate market conduct in securities and derivatives trading.
The main novelty for market participants and the focus of this client briefing will be the rules on derivatives trading. In this context, the FMIA provides for three duties:
- clearing requirements:
OTC derivative trades among counterparties that are not small need to be cleared through an authorized or recognized central counterparty (CCP);
- reporting obligations:
counterparties are required to report their trades in OTC and exchange traded derivatives to a trade repository on the business day following the trade;
- risk mitigation obligations:
non-cleared OTC derivatives are be subject to risk mitigation requirements, including require- ments regarding timely confirmation, portfolio reconciliation, portfolio compression, mark-to- market valuation and margining.
Furthermore, the FMIA lays the legal foundation to introduce an obligation to trade certain designated derivatives on trading platforms and to introduce position limits on commodities. These last two duties, however, will probably not enter into force before an international consensus emerges on their implementation, which does not seem likely in the immediate future.
As a matter of principle, the FMIA applies only to entities with a seat in Switzerland, including their foreign branches, as well as to Swiss branches of foreign market participants, provided they are not subject to equivalent regulation. Other foreign entities, including their Swiss branches are otherwise, not in scope.
Although foreign entities are not in scope, otherwise than possibly through a Swiss branch, the FMIA has a cross-border reach. Most duties under the FMIA also apply when a Swiss entity trades with a foreign counterparty. In such situations too, the duties depend on the classification of the counterparty, e.g., in connection with clearing obligations or when determining which party should report a trade.
Therefore, foreign counterparties should be able to determine how they would be classified under the FMIA, when dealing with Swiss counterparties. In this context, the draft of the Ordinance on Financial Markets Infrastructures ("draft FMIO") proposes to include in its scope foreign undertakings that have legal personality pursuant to the applicable law as well as trusts and similar constructs, thus using a different definition than the one applicable in a domestic set-up.
Moreover, the draft FMIO does not provide any guidance on how to classify foreign counterparties as financial or non-financial counterparties. It is, nevertheless, likely that, as with other financial regulations, the determination will depend on the question whether the entity would be regulated as a financial counterparty if it were in Switzerland or if it is subject to a comparable regulation in its home country. This classification is therefore likely to characterize unregulated foreign vehicles used by private equity funds and hedge funds as collective schemes under Swiss law.
The determination whether a counterparty is small or not will be more straightforward and will probably follow the same thresholds as for Swiss entities. Under this approach, a non-financial counterparty will be deemed small if its gross outstanding derivative positions over a 30-business-day period for different types of derivatives does not exceed certain thresholds, which are calculated and set fundamentally in line with the standard under EMIR. The Swiss regime for small financial counterparties focuses, by contrast, on a single threshold relating to the overall gross outstanding derivative position over a 30-business-day period, which will be set at CHF 8 billion including hedging transactions.
Substitute Compliance Regime
To facilitate cross-border compliance, the FMIA generally permits counterparties to satisfy their duties under the FMIA by applying foreign regulations. This substitute compliance regime will be available if (a) the foreign regulations are deemed equivalent to the FMIA and (b), with respect to clearing and reporting obligations, the counterparties use foreign central counterparties or trade repositories that are recognized by FINMA.
As a matter of principle, these efforts will be further facilitated by specific provisions of the FMIA allowing counterparties to exchange of information required to comply with the FMIA within a group and to provide information required by Swiss law to foreign trade repositories without seeking prior consent of clients or even giving them notice. However, if by virtue of applying foreign laws, additional information needs to be provided to foreign group entities or trade repositories, it will remain necessary to comply with disclosure and consent requirements applicable under the Data Protection Act and Swiss banking secrecy.
Cross-border Transactions
As a matter of principle, transactions between a Swiss and a foreign counterparty are also subject to clearing, reporting and risk-mitigation obligations as the case may be.
However, in addition to the substitute compliance regime, the FMIA aims to facilitate compliance when dealing with foreign counterparties, by generally allowing counterparties to clear and/or report their transactions not only with an authorized (Swiss) financial market infrastructure provider, but also with a recognized foreign market infrastructure. Thus, allowing foreign counterparties to use their usual channels.
As mentioned above, counterparties are not required to inform and seek the consent of their clients when reporting a transaction to a Swiss or foreign trade repository based on the requirement of the FMIA. Client consent is required only if a counterparty provides additional client data to a foreign repository, e.g., because it complies with the requirements of another regulatory framework.
Cross-border Exemption
Notwithstanding the fact that a transaction is in scope, the FMIA expressly exempts from clearing requirements cross-border transactions with a counterparty with a seat in a jurisdiction with an equivalent regulation if the transaction is not subject to clearing requirement in the home country of the foreign counterparty.
Although no such rules exist for the reporting obligations, the same system applies to the risk- mitigation requirements that require the cooper- ation of a foreign counterparty, including timely confirmations, portfolio reconciliation, portfolio com- pression and dispute resolution as well as the margining requirements. In particular, the duty to exchange collateral does not apply on a cross border basis, if a counterparty is based in a jurisdiction that was deemed to have equivalent regulations and that does not provide for such an obligation.
By virtue of this exemption, the mere fact that a derivative is subject to obligations under the FMIA is not sufficient to trigger obligations for a Swiss counterparty dealing with a foreign counterparty, thus ensuring that foreign counterparties will not be subject to an additional compliance burden merely because their counterparty is Swiss and avoiding putting Swiss market participants at a disadvantage with their foreign competitors.
Intra-Group Exemptions
In addition to the exemptions for cross-border transactions, the FMIA also provides for exemptions for intra-group transactions. Unlike under EMIR, groups will be allowed to take advantage of this exemption without giving prior notice to a regulator.
Thus, intra-group transactions are exempt from the clearing requirements provided that the entities are included in the same consolidation perimeter and are subject to appropriate centralized risk assessment, measurement and control processes.
Similarly, the margining requirement does not apply to intra-group transactions among counterparties that are fully consolidated and have an appropriate common central risk-valuation, measurement, and control process provided that no legal or factual obstacles (other than insolvency rules) prevent the immediate transfer of capital or repayment of liabilities and that the contracts do not seek to avoid the duty to exchange collateral.
Nevertheless, the reporting obligations as well as most risk mitigation requirements also need to be complied with even within a group of companies.
As suggested above, from a domestic perspective, the FMIA provides for a deemed compliance regime and various exemptions for counterparties based in jurisdictions with equivalent regulatory standards. Furthermore, it contemplates the possibility to recog- nize foreign CCPs and trade repositories, provided, among others, that they are subject to equivalent regulations.
Against this backdrop, the question of equivalence will undoubtedly play a central role for the implementation of the FMIA on a cross-border basis. At this stage, it is expected that EU jurisdictions applying EMIR will be recognized as equivalent and that the U.S. Dodd Frank Act will also enjoy a similar status, if only because one purpose of the FMIA was precisely to ensure that Swiss regulations would be recognized as equivalent from the perspective of the EU. The status of other jurisdictions is less clear, although we expect Switzerland to follow the determination of European Commission and the technical advice ESMA and also recognize Australia, Hong Kong, Japan and Singapore as having equivalent regulations.
The Swiss government announced that it expects the FMIA together with its implementing ordinances to enter into force on 1 January 2016. However, due to the complexity of the obligations, the FMIA provides for several phasing-in periods of six to twelve months for most obligations allowing counterparties to adjust their operations to the new regulatory environment.
The margining requirements will be implemented over a longer period starting on 1 September 2016 and extending until 1 September 2019.
Notably, however, neither the FMIA nor the implementing ordinance provide for a deadline for FINMA to determine which jurisdictions are equivalent or for an extended phasing-in period for foreign counterparty, which will therefore need to move in sync with their Swiss counterparties.
Finally, an obligation to trade certain designated derivatives on trading platforms and to introduce position limits on commodities shall be introduced once an international consensus emerges on their implementation, which does not seem likely in the immediate future.

"Dr. Hall and the staff at Ocean Animal Clinic are truly unique. Most vets are compassionate but always peddling unnecessary expensive services and drugs. Dr. Hall is compassionate,
direct and alternative. He really seems to be in tune with the animals.
My baby, Harry, is ill and his prognosis is not what a mother wants to hear. But, Dr. Hall was so good with him and also our girl Roxy.
Just a truly decent, loving Vet. Thank you."
~ Jennifer M
"The Ocean Animal Clinic staff have been caring for my adult turtles since 2011 and I cannot imagine trusting another veterinarian with their care. As a college student he was able to help me find ways to improve the care I provided my pets and his payment options (accepts CareCredit!) helped ensure that my pets received the medical attention they needed on time.
I consider Ocean Animal Clinic a part of my family and would recommend their services to anyone without hesitation.
Thank you, OAC!"
~Alejandra Vargas
"My feline friend, Arturo, means the world to me. He adopted me when he was a tiny, feral kitten who slept in a gallon planting container in my gardening shed. As soon as I was able to catch him, I brought him to the Ocean Animal Clinic where several friends had referred me. That was the beginning of a very special relationship.
Arturo is now 17. Over the years,the staff have been our lifesavers, literally. Due to their knowledge, patience, kindness, and diagnostic skills, he has seen Arturo through at least nine lives and addressed broken hips, eating issues, thyroid problems, diabetes and recently a diabetes miracle recovery, just to name a few.
The staff at Ocean Animal Clinic is exceptional – friendly, knowledgeable and caring. They share my concerns regarding Arturo's health and quality of life. Because they've taken the time to know his idiosyncrasies, I have no doubt that when I bring Arturo for appointments or boarding, he's in the best of hands. I feel that the staff at the Ocean Animal Clinic are and extended part of our family."

Aligning Coordinate Frames in Multi-Robot Systems with Relative Sensing InformationSasanka Nagavalli, Andrew Lybarger, Lingzhi Luo, Nilanjan Chakraborty and Katia Sycara

In this paper, we present both centralized and distributed algorithms for aligning coordinate frames in multi- robot systems based on inter-robot relative position measure- ments. Robot orientations are not measured, but are computed by our algorithms. Our algorithms are robust to measure- ment error and are useful in applications where a group of robots need to establish a common coordinate frame based on relative sensing information. The problem of establishing a common coordinate frame is formulated in a least squares error framework minimizing the total inconsistency of the measurements. We assume that robots that can sense each other can also communicate with each other. In this paper, our key contribution is a novel asynchronous distributed algorithm for multi-robot coordinate frame alignment that does not make any assumptions about the sensor noise model. After minimizing the least squares error (LSE) objective for coordinate frame alignment of two robots, we develop a novel algorithm that out- performs state-of-the-art centralized optimization algorithms for minimizing the LSE objective. Furthermore, we prove that for multi-robot systems (a) with redundant noiseless relative sensing information, we will achieve the globally optimal solution (this is non-trivial because the LSE objective is non- convex for our problem), (b) with noisy information but no redundant sensing (e.g. sensing graph has a tree topology), our algorithm will optimally minimize the LSE objective. We also present preliminary results of the real-world performance of our algorithm on TurtleBots equipped with Kinect sensors.

Books of Mark Manson
Mark Manson's first book, Models: Attract Women through Honesty, was self-published in 2011 and by 2014 it had sold over 15,000 copies.[1] The book teaches men how to attract women through honest communication and creating a lifestyle that's in line with one's values,[14] standing in contrast to many popular ideas in the pickup artist community that have been labeled as deceptive and dishonest.[15]
The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck
Mark Manson's second book, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck: A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life, was published under the imprint of HarperOne, a division of HarperCollins Publishers, and was released on September 13, 2016.[16]
The book is a reaction to the self-help industry and what Manson saw as a culture of mindless positivity that isn't practical or helpful for most people.[17] Manson uses many of his own personal experiences to illustrate how life's struggles often give it more meaning, which, he argues, is a better approach than constantly trying to be happy.[18]
Manson's approach and writing style have been categorized by some as contrarian to the general self-help industry, using blunt honesty and profanity to illustrate his ideas.[18][19]
It first appeared on the New York Times Bestseller List at #6 for the category of How-to and Miscellaneous for the week of October 2, 2016.[20]. It also appeared on the Washington Post's Bestseller List at #9 in the Non-fiction/General category for the week of September 25, 2016,[21] and on the Toronto Star List at #1 in the Self-Improvement category on September 23, 2016.[22] In 2017, it was a featured best seller on Barnes & Noble[23], the #4 best-selling book on Amazon.com.[24], and the #9 best-selling book in Canada.[25]

Future Diets, implication for agriculture and food prices
In the developing world, the number of overweight and obese adults more than tripled from 1980 to 2008. One in three adults in the world is obese or overweight. Obesity, linked with overconsumption of fat and salt, is linked to the global rise in some cancers, diabetes, heart diease, and strokes. However, at the same time the under-consumption of nutritious foods, including protein an micronutrients, still effects hundreds of millions. This is especially so for children in developing nations who face a higher likelihood of undernutrition from birth and live with impaired mental and physical development. The global pattern of future diets is thus a massive public health concern, fostering overconsumption and incentivizing agricultural production of feed crops but not nutritious crops. This report examines the types of policy and projections of future needs for food that we can take to alter the current patterns and foster more nutritious trends. Click here to download a copy.

This page, while not being a stub, still needs some attention, specifically in the {{{1}}} section(s).
Alicia is Maddie's sister in Arkansas.
In "Prisoners of Love," Maddie travels to Arkansas to visit her sister on the anniversary of her divorce.
She wears blue overalls with a plaid pink shirt underneath. She is also seen wearing brown boots and wears pink lipstick.
In "Prisoners of Love," Alicia is shown to be strict and to have a short temper, which she demonstrates via shouting. Despite this, she always seems to want what's best for her sister, even if that means telling her to divorce her husband. She is an individual with a very strong sense of independence and self-reliance, but is not above tearing up from happiness when her sister remembers the anniversary of her divorce or complimenting said sister on her intelligence.
She does not like her brother-in-law, Jack Fenton, who in return dislikes her and describes her as a bitter old hag. Despite her hatred, she really is just looking out her sister and wants what's best for her.

Profits soar as Knock Airport has record year
Pre-tax profits at the company that operates Ireland West Airport Knock last year increased more than fivefold to €642,788.
In a record-breaking year the airport's passenger numbers increased by 7pc or 48,000 to 733,869 as revenues increased by 3pc to €12.6m.
This allowed the company's pre-tax profits to increase by 473pc from €112,161 to €642,788.
An investment by seven local authorities of €7.3m to take 17.5pc in equity in the airport company was finalised last year and places a value of €41.7m on the airport firm.
The directors state that the growth in passenger numbers last year was fuelled by the commencement of new services to Birmingham and Edinburgh with Flybe, to Costa Dorada and the arrival of the first ever charter service from Boston with Aer Lingus.
The directors state that the airport continued to benefit from the development of the Wild Atlantic Way and the airport's location at its centre.
The directors state that in total the airport now reaches 22 international destinations - 16 of which are scheduled services.
The airport last year celebrated its 30th anniversary and the directors state that the airport company would have recorded a pre-tax loss of €324,977 but for the funding received from the Department of Transport.
The directors point out that the airport continues to pursue its balanced brand strategy in regard to its airport and despite continued volatility in the aviation sector, the airport has three mainline carriers providing international connectivity to the west of Ireland.
The airport is forecasting close to 750,000 passengers during 2017 which would be a 2pc increase on 2016.
The directors' report states: "Uncertainty remains in regards to Brexit, potential economic slowdown in our main markets, airline strategic actions and fuel prices.
"Despite these, the airport continues to see positive trends as improving load factors continued for the first quarter of 2017 and at this point, the airport is confident it will achieve the 2017 passenger forecast."
Numbers employed by the airport last year increased from 117 to 130 with staff costs increasing from €4.9m to €5.32m.
The directors state that the airport is continuing its pursuit of an airline partner to establish seasonal US services and is pursuing opportunities with the recent market entrants, Norwegian and WOW air.
Shareholder funds total €2.96m. The company's cash pile increased threefold to €4.7m. The profit takes account of non-cash depreciation of €1.72m. Directors' remuneration decreased to €167,999.

Ideal Standard and the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) have teamed up to launch a competition for architects and design professionals to present their ideas on how bathrooms will look, feel and perform in the future, with a cash prize of £5,000 up for grabs.
The UK bathroom manufacturer has often been at the forefront of innovation including addressing the limited space available in domestic bathrooms, designing products that help save water and using well known designers to produce functional, practical bathrooms with strong aesthetic appeal.
This competition is a chance to showcase what future residential bathrooms may look like in 20 years' time. The design will address the trends, lifestyle, issues, sustainability and demographics of the future. They are not looking for fully resolved designs – more concepts that reveal what today's professionals foresee in future bathroom and user lifestyle trends.
The format of design proposals should be a complete bathroom though it is possible to focus on one or more elements of the bathroom (e.g. wc, basin, taps etc.,) within the design. They are interested in ideas that show everyday bathrooms rather than elaborate futuristic visions, so the response needs to be practical, realistic and within the functional and economic grasp of a future generation.
Entries should assume the bathroom size is 6 square metres, and focus on the following areas: WC and toileting, basin and washing, bathing, showering.
A dimensional plan should be included with illustrations of how the bathroom would look, feel and perform within the house, along with up to 800 words on the reasoning behind the ideas. This might be a written summary and / or combined with annotated designs showing the functionality and performance of each element. The reasoning should include the main areas that are likely to change and trends expected over the next 20 years. These are likely to cover: demographics and an ageing population, water saving and sustainability, space, health.
Submissions should be sent as pdfs to: firstname.lastname@example.com no later than 31 January 2017. Winners will be announced March 2017.
Terms and Conditions:
Deadline for submissions: 31 January 2017
Winner announced: March 2017
Judging will take place in February with the winner announced in March 2017.
The judging panel:

Gathering his few belongings and his trusted Maul .. Bosh (and Boo, on his shoulder) watch the vessel go down below the waves. Had they been on it. Bosh shakes his head. Swimming was just not really his greatest skill. And so far away from shore .. Boo squeeked as if pipping into the thought. "Yes Boo, we have new friends now"

She looked slightly askance at Rrger, her eyes moving over to Bosh as the trollkin spoke of meeting their new companion. She gave him a rather critical once over visually. The ogrun was no taller than she was (without her tricorne), but must have weighed three times her own weight; he looked more than solid enough.
The Llaelese gun mage nodded to Bosh's assessment of his status on the sinking Aggressor. "Threw your lot in with us, eh?" the Rhynnish brunette quipped with a slightly crooked smile crossing her lips. "Well met then, Mr. Bosh." Dany greeted the ogrun bodger, then introduced herself more formally, "I'm Danyka Ydrasyl." She extended her black gloved right hand towards Bosh.
Her left hand rested easily on her lapel of her heavy, voluminous outer coat, a finger hooked into one of the button holes. When the stocky ogrun, engaged in conversation with the small ball of fur on his shoulder, Danyka raised an eyebrow. She extended her left arm and the nose and muzzle of a black-footed ferret presented itself from just inside the cuff of her sleeve. The thin line of fur snaked its way into the cradling fingers of Dany's outstretched left hand. Then the raven-haired pistoleer then introduced her own rodent companion to Bosh's, "Boo. This is Wyck."

"Thank you. These may be of some help, but I fear that our own charts are far more detailed on where we are going." He has a somber expression as he pauses for a moment.
"It's the Law of the Sea, but it is always a sad occasion when a ship sinks. Every ship has a majestic grace when it is sailing, but beneath the waves it is just rotting fish food."
"I will look over these, of course, but a ship's rutters are nearly always in code that only the captain that made them can read."
"However, I can tell you right now that these all bear the mark of the Protectorate of Menoth. That's twice now they've tried to stop us. I doubt if they are done with us yet, but the farther away from land we get, the less chance they'll have of reaching us or even finding us."
"This was not something that was anticipated. Our resources were predicated on a specific plan of action. I'm sorely tempted to go full steam ahead for the rest of the trip. That will use up our coal resources to the point there won't be much left for the return trip. We'd have to go all sail, unless we can refuel where we're going."
Although he appeated to be talking to Rrger, he was also directing it to the few crew he had.
Later, up on deck, as Bosh worked on his mechanical arm, Rrger noticed that Bosh used a technique that looked rather familiar... and finally realized it was the same technique he used... one that had been taught him by Clanker back in his Iron Fist training!
As Dany introduces herself to Bosh, Creswick points out that Bosh was a prisoner on the other ship; he wasn't with the other crew, though they'd wanted him to join.
Katrin and Marco and Nicollo had joined Dany as she surveyed and inventoried all the loot from the Aggressor. It was going to be a toss-up how much they kept and how much they had to deep-six. On the one hand, as they paddlewheeled onward, they were burning up coal, thus reducing weight that way, but it would require a bit more to compensate for the extra mass of the new cargo. On the other hand, this might be valuable 'trade' items where they were going.
Of particular significance is the 1000 rounds of ammunition, plus an extra 100 pounds of powder.
The most significant item, however, might be the altar box. Opening it (after successfully picking the lock), it is full of blue powder. It is only when you notice that there is a pouch-like compartment fastened to the inside of the lid and extract the letter that was concealed there that you understand what you have.
The letter is from Garrick Voyle himself! Menite alchemists, under the guidance and inspiration of Menoth, have been able to make a new kind of gunpowder. Using this 'shockpowder' as it has been dubbed in place of normal red powder causes bullets fired by it to deal extra shock damage (+1d6) to the target it hits. Naturally, this powder is only to be used in the cause of Menoth.
There is enough powder for 200 shots.

"Anyone here," Danyka solicited, "have any experience packing ammunition..." She pursed her lips, "This stuff would be useful ... I can likely," though she hardly sounded convinced herself, "pack the stuff myself." The Llaelese gun mage swallowed hard, before continuing, "Though some might be wasted..." From the sounds of it, that might be an understatement (not to mention just plain dangerous - especially shipboard). Dany had the basics of ammunition packing taught to her - and she had a gunner's kit - so, it was possible that she could manage it. But, it would be stretch to say that she was an expert in the field.
And with the extra punch this powder packed, they probably needed an expert.
She had send Wyck off with Boo to see make sure that the little rodent didn't get into too much trouble. She seemed to trust Boo implicitly.
When Rrger asked Bosh about his training, Dany paused in what she was doing. The answer seemed to pique her interest. Bosh was an enigma, for if what Creswick had said was right, who knows where Bosh was from. Or what his story was...

Bosh looks around seeing Boo was skimming around with Wyck. Smiling to see Boo had met a little friend that didnt want to eat it for a change.
Upon hearing the Llaelese brunette "I am somewhat familiar with gunpowder itself, not overly so. I .. would be more versed in brewing beverages and ointments of sorts. I could take a look to see if we can do something with the pile hummm" Getting up, it is not so much the size in height that made Bosh stand out. Barely qualifying as a tall humanoid. It was more the overal size from the Ogrun.
"Let us get to work .. then"
(Link: http://nl.pinterest.com/pin/165225880048963641/, think of a sort of outer'outfit such as this one, Bosh does keep the hood off 99% of the time. Unless mentioned :))

"If you could assist me, Dany, that would make it go a bit faster and easier. I have a gunner's kit, and I believe there were two put on the ship as part of our supplies."
She starts going through the loot looking for useable guns and spare ammunition.

At the bottom of the pile, there are a number of ordinary weapons:
7 longswords
9 short swords
2 battleaxes
2 rapiers
1 Elvin thin blade (though no one can recall seeing an Elf on board the Aggressor)
12 longbows with 121 arrows
14 crossbows with 143 bolts
51 daggers
There weren't nearly that many people on board the ship, but most of them had two or three weapons, plus the ship had a fairly well-stocked armory. What made that a bit odd is that the crew on the ship weren't trained soldiers who could have made better use of the weapons. It's as if they threw militia or auxiliaries onboard rather than regular marines.

And there was no reason that she could (and apparently, wouldn't) claim the blade as a bit of plunder. If allowed and no other owner for the blade appeared; Dany figured that as an Iosan, Creswick, could claimed precedence. And the Llaelese brunette was fully willing to yield to him on that score.
"Seems that we have a hodge-podge here," Danyka noted to no one in particular, but loud enough for all to hear her musings, "Obviously, these boys were sanctioned privateers. But, the fact that they targetted us seems far too coincidental..." Of course, given what they had just done, and the pile of loot in front of them, the Rynnish brunette was sure exactly what that made them. "The seas are presumably," she added quietly, "are safer for what we have done." Menoth raiders were scary enough. Menoth raiders targeting them was even scarier.
She looked up from her musings at Rrger's prompting. "Rightly so." Dany nodded curtly, tossing the elven thinblade back onto the pile of weapons. Scooping up the Rynnish walking stick in her hand as well, the Llaelese gun mage moved to help port all of their ill-gotten booty into the ship's armoury and below deck storage.
Once everything was stowed properly, Danyka stared at the polished, engraved pommel of the walking stick that they had obtained. She frowned slightly, a tight uncomfortable moue forming on her burgundy lips, as she traced the intricate patterned grooves in the burnished ebony on the long concealed weapon, but remained silent. There was a glimmer of recognition, but little more said or done. Well, other than the young Llaelese woman taking the stick with her.
"Yes," the thin Rynnish brunette intoned, looking up at the rough trollkin, "I'm famished." It was only once the adrenaline high, the euphoria of victory, and interesting pile of equipment was dealt with that she realized just how famished she was. Tiredness was creeping in to the edges of her awareness. But, some food would be good first. Dany started to pad off towards the mess hall of the Resolute.

Bosh gives the weapon pile a once over but shrugs, there was nothing to this pile of 'junk' he thought usefull. With already his trusty Maul in his posession he follows Danyka down towards the mess. Opun entering (those closeby) Boshs' stomach growls loudly. "I could eat like a troll" Turning to see if Rrger had been following them ...

She started to dig into her meal. Danyka didn't wolf her food down, though somehow it all seems to disappear quite efficiently; all of it ending with the bowl of stew fastidiously cleaned with the last piece of bread on the accompanying plate.
The young woman chatted as she cut a wedge of cheese and broke off a hunk of bread to go with it. "I still don't think that it was a coincidence that we met up with the Aggressor." Dany wagered idly, and she didn't seem to be talking about Fate, Faith or Morrow being the reasons, "Though lucky for you, Bosh, that we did. How is it that you were on-board?" Some of his mannerisms bespoke of Iron Fist training - which meant something. The Rynnish brunette just didn't know what; she actually hoped that he might be able to fill them in on that...

She took another sip of mulled wine from her tankard, "Interesting, I didn't know that Clanker was from Khador. Or in a monastery ..." The Rynnish brunette seemed lost in thought for a moment, before the focus returned to her eyes with slightly more determination; it seemed to explain some things perhaps.
Danyka pulled our her dagger and started to slice up an apple that she had apparently pocketed. "And your arm?" she leaned forward for a moment gesturing to the prosthetic with the tip of her blade, before returning to cutting, "There must be a story behind that as well. It is a serious piece of work." She took a couple of slices offering them to Bosh and Rrger.
Then the Llaelese gun mage took two more slices and passed one into her sleeve, where it summarily disappeared, and held out the other to Boo. Only then, did she partake herself, slicing off some of the hard cheese on the central tray and pulling a few apple wedges for herself.

Bosh scoops up some soup and continues "Though that was just one of the many injuries it had sustained outside of the militairy. As after I had found out I was not so much to be cut as a monk nor friar. I left the monastery soon after. Joined the army as an adventurous thought. Join the army, see the world it says. I saw the world. But not the way I had hoped it would be. And along the way unlike him .." Thumbing towards Rrger ".. my arm does not grow back, and thus with what I had learned from this Clanker and with some assets I had aquired while being in service I had managed to replace it. And that is where I got to meet Boo. Being accidentally caught in some metalplates. I rescued the little buddy. And he has been following me eversince"
