Senior Living 55+ Communities
In the months to come I will be blogging about Senior 55+ communities. Denise and I both have concerns over our aging parents, family members and friends who have large, multi-story homes that are getting to be difficult for them to maintain. As parents (& grandparents!) ourselves, we see the difficulties of being empty nesters, of owning a larger home, a big yard and yes, someday those second story stairs being an issue. We don't know if the day will come when we have to down-size, but it may come.
This is why we are so interested in Senior Living communities and Single-Level Living.
So, what is a 55+ community? Also known as senior living communities, retirement communities, affinity retirement communities, active adult communities and more, these communities are for people who want to live by other like-minded individuals with interests and lifestyles much like their own. Don't confused these communities with retirement homes or nursing homes. They are not and far from it. These communities are considered by some as a transition - from working every day, taking care of children and the home for decades - to downsizing and enjoying life during retirement without the worries of a lot of home maintenance.
The law. The US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the Housing For Older Persons Act, says that housing in these communities must include at least one person over the age of 55 in at least 80% of the occupied units. This means that the spouse can be under the required age. These communities are usually noted as "age-qualified" in their marketing campaigns. Also, no one under the age of 19 may be a permanent resident. Other types of communities are termed " age-targeted", which should not be confused with age-qualified. These are not solely 55+ communities. These allow younger couples with kids to live there as well .
Almost 80 million Baby Boomers are in the process of retiring in the United States. Most senior communities are changing to keep up with the times. They won't be like the ones our grandparents may have lived in.

Mixed media installation – liquid emulsion on stainless steel and aluminium cookware, cotton fabric
Cooked was commissioned for the 1999 Melbourne Food & Wine Festival.

"The body is a highly contested site - its flesh is both the recipient and source of desire, lust and hatred. As a pawn of technology, it is sacred and sacrificial, bearing the politics of society and state. The body is our common bond, yet it separates us in its public display of identity, race and gender... "
This body of work has evolved out of Kleemann's concern for the diminishing value of human individuality on a global scale. Print and electronic are full of stories of people cast adrift, literally boat people in many cases. The global economy is increasingly built on humans and cultures being dispensable, having a use-by date, the colonisers literally feeding off the backs of the colonised.
"In a consumerist society the body is nothing more than another commercial product to be monitored and controlled..."
From banquets and ballrooms to bedrooms and boardrooms, from the vulnerable human body to the hard-headed corporate body, humanity is becoming increasingly fragmented, commodified and consumed. Corporate and multi-national gluttony is on the rise. Advertising moguls glorify poverty and addiction, making buckets of money from the misfortunes of others; sporting heroes are bought and sold for unimaginable sums of money; the media feed off celebrity status in pursuit of a story, cosmetic companies bombard us about the need to reshape and sculpt our bodies to fulfil the dominant culture's perceived desires, all in the name of greater and greater profits.
"... as if flesh were just one of the new (sculptural) materials of the age, like concrete, glass and steel... Through photography, ideas about the care and presentation of the body are disseminated and avidly consumed."
(THE BODY, William A. Ewing, 1994/97, pg. 324, 333, 27, 10).

SAN FRANCISCO (CBS.MW) - A warning from 99 Cents Only Stores weighed on the retail sector Monday.
The S&P Retail Index $RLX closed down 1.1 percent at 404.79.
One of the biggest decliners in both the sector and on the New York Stock Exchange was 99 Cents Only Stores NDN, +0.00%, which tumbled $6.38, or 31 percent, to $14.10 on the company's Friday warning that second-quarter earnings and revenue are likely to fall short of expectations. See full story.
Elsewhere, Wal-Mart Stores WMT, -0.18% dipped 82 cents to $56.38 after the nation's largest retailer said it still expects June same-store sales to come in at the low end of its 4 to 6 percent target range.
In its weekly recorded sales update, the company reiterated that it expects the negative impact of the movement of the July 4 holiday out of June and into July's sales quota will be partially offset by the movement of Memorial Day into June's quota.
Turning to ratings news, shares of Ethan Allen Interiors ETH, -0.40% fell 38 cents to $36.20 after BB&T Capital Markets cut the furniture retailer to "hold" from "buy."
In a note to clients, analyst Joel Harvard said the downgrade was based on a weaker near-term earnings forecast, coupled with his belief that rising interest rates could hurt the sector.
"We still believe that an industry recovery is underway," Harvard added, "although the pace remains slower and choppier than originally forecast."
May Department Stores MAY, +0.00% shares lost 54 cents to $28.33 after Fitch Ratings downgraded the company's debt to "BBB," or 2 notches above "junk" status, from "BBB+."
The debt rating agency cited May's agreement to buy Marshall Fields as well as some Mervyn's stores for $3.24 billion as the reason behind the downgrade.
The acquisition will result in a "sizable increase" in financial leverage over the medium term, and lead to "challenges" in integrating an underperforming department store operation, Fitch said.
In economic news, the Commerce Department estimate Monday that retail sales rebounded with a 1.2 percent rise in May, after dropping by a revised 0.6 percent in April. The sales were driven by consumers buying more gas and motor vehicles. The May figures were in line with most economists' expectations.

Stop Corruption of the Political Process by Global Corporatism
Globally we are seeing our democracies ceded to corporate interests. Political parties are becoming more and more beholden to their corporate donors and less responsive to the will and needs of the people. They will pay lip service to public sentiment but when all is said and done they do the bidding of the economic elites who make the largest donations. This is corrupting our political system at its core, robbing the vast majority of Australians of their democratic rights. The levers of power no longer reside in the people but in the hands of corporations. The spectacle of elections is merely the veneer of democracy. Each year power is being moved away from the people and concentrated in the hands of both national, and increasingly, global corporations.
Areas of consideration:
1. Making all political donations real time transparent.
2. Restrictions on politicians working as lobbyists or in corporations associated with their portfolios for a specified period after they leave government. This would prevent conflict of interests resulting from nepotism towards future employers and/or associates.
Why is this important?
Globally governments are increasingly handcuffed in their ability to address serious threats to our species such as climate change, economic collapse and social inequalities. In order to halt this process political power needs to be devolved, big money taken out of out politics and the political process returned to the people. Our democracies, our civilization and our planet are at stake, all of which will be sacrificed at the alter of short term profit if the people do not resist.

How To Wear A CoordinateBy Style Counsel / May 3, 2018 / Blog,Style / 0 Comments
The coordinate is the mother of all spring/summer statement outfits, not only did bold floral-patterned coordinates dominate at Coachella this year, we have seen numerous celebrities wearing chic white or pastel coloured co-ord. But, wearing a one requires careful styling to avoid looking like you are wearing pyjamas.
Be Bold And Brave
With stripes, polka dots and floral patterns being the main prints of the season, make sure you incorporate them into your coordinate. Don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone and be bold, co-ord is an outfit that you might think twice about before stepping out of your door, but you won't regret it when you are receiving looks of envy.
Kill It In The Office
Fashion doesn't have to go out of the window in order to comply with company uniform policies. Rock a black two piece of culottes and a matching vest top for a formal yet stylish outfit, pop on a pair of block heels and a dainty necklace and you will be known as the office style queen.
Be Minimalistic
When wearing a co-ord, particularly a patterned one, the outfit itself makes enough of a statement. Leave the big jewellery behind and keep your look minimalistic. Wear a pair of small silver hoops and leave your makeup looking natural so that you don't draw attention away from your amazing outfit.
Dress It Up Or Down
The beauty of a coordinate is in its versatility, pop on a pair of heels and you have yourself a fantastic outfit for a formal event or heading to a bar. Swap the heels for trainers and you are ready to rock a lunch date or a day of shopping. You don't need to change up how you style the rest of your outfit, just switch up your footwear to transform the outfit with minimal effort
If you are unsure of how to style a specific coordinate you have purchased, then ask our Stylists on the app!

OK, ladies and gentlemen, we will now inform the Libyan rebels that we're going to establish the no fly zone. Everyone please join hands so we can begin the séance.
– President Barack Obama
A note from out attorneys: This is not a real quote.
According to the WH directory, FirstGranny is in charge of all things in the world of spirits. Rumor has it that she was restrained by the SecretService after she tackled MrGingrich while chanting "eye of newt, we need eye of newt".
Spoxperson for the WH had no comment.
High five!
That's funny, SrDem!
DRUDGE was reporting this morning that Joan Baez has now pulled out of the Obama Mutual Admiration Society. Matt Damon turned in his card last week, shaking his head and crying crocodile tears. Other Hollywood Leftists have already left … since Mr. Obama "is not left enough."
By the time 2012 rolls around, the only band that will play for the Democratic National Convention will be 2LIVECREW or Puff Daddy or some other gangster rap group.
He could call in Rev. Jeremiah Wright (who plays guitar), and with Louis Farrakkhan on bass and Al Sharpton on drums, put together 3LIVEFOOLS as an opening act. Chris Matthews could MC.
"3LIVEFOOLS"! Now THAT IS funny!!

Caitlyn Jenner is slated to receive the Arthur Ashe Courage Award during the ESPYs in July. For those who might not know the ESPYs are given in a variety of categories, to individual athletes and teams. The Arthur Ashe Award is given to the individual(s) who contributed "most significantly" to the world beyond sports during a given year. The award has no gender or event qualifications. For many the announcement Jenner will be this year's recipient brings hope, an opportunity to elevate someone who shares part of their story, a chance to educate society by normalizing real life situations which most often bring with them confusion, pain, frustration, and loneliness. Sadly, for others it is just one more chance to demonstrate their ignorance, ugly sides, and God-complexes.
Not being much of a sport enthusiast (I watch my own children play, but that's about it.), I had to do some research into the ESPYs and the Arthur Ashe Courage Award in order to understand the "controversy". I must say, after reading Arthur Ashe's story and the definition of his Courage Award, I hardily agree with the Jenner nomination.
Ms. Jenner has shown courage in the extreme by making her journey public. And, she has contributed to humanity in ways most of us can only begin to measure. But let me try anyway. Ms. Jenner has shown a group of people who are typically ostracized, completely misunderstood and unreasonably vilified that it is never too late to live authentic lives. She has made herself a lightning rod thereby giving transgender advocates a way to expose the lies plaguing transgender people without needing to risk shining a spotlight on their own loved ones.
Additionally, Jenner has shouldered a ton of criticism not only about her personal experience but also about her decision to share her experience publicly. Seriously, if her critics aren't burning her in hell they're trying to shame her into silence. These insensitive, brutish people, who frankly have no dog in the fight and thus no legitimate right to the inordinate amount of attention they've garnered, ought to be quiet. (If I weren't an advocate of free speech I would be tempted to say they don't even have a right to an opinion in the matter). At the very least, they ought to take their petty preaching back inside their tax-exempt buildings and leave the rest of us in peace. (Of course, the religious naysayers aren't the only negative voices but they're the one's I'm most frequently exposed to and often the loudest).
Some may be wondering Since I don't have a transgender child what gives me the "right" to speak out about this issue. I could point to my gay son and claim LGBT people and their families have to stick together. But honestly, if I did that I would be using my son in a way I don't fully believe to be true. You see all LGBT people are not alike any more than all straight people are alike, or all Christians are alike or all… [you get the point]. The truth is I DON'T have a physical dog in this fight. What I have is an emotional understanding of what it feels like to pretend you are someone you are not. For me personally, breaking out of hiding (and perhaps helping others do the same) is how Ms. Jenner has contributed most significantly to humanity.
I understand living with the fear you are going to be "found out". I resonate with the shame and the desperation. I resonate with the feeling of waking up to the realization you can no longer pretend. I have stood frozen in fear then suddenly knowing that even if it meant I would live the rest of my life separated from community, rejected by my loved ones, and eventually have to face an angry, vengeful God, I could no longer continue to live a lie, a lie which ultimately helps no one. As an adult, my entire life inside the walls of religious institutions was spent immersed in a pervasive, manipulative, immobilizing fear. I was frightened to death of death–that nebulous somewhere worse than this. My fear was sucking the life out of me and caused me to deny my strengths, my talents, my discernment, my voice.
If it were not for a former pastor who discovered an escape clause from all the mind controlling religious rhetoric and risked sharing it with me one gorgeously sunny day in June while we ate BBQ at my son's graduation party, I honestly do not know if I would ever have woken from the nightmare of my fear. This all sounds rather melodramatic, even to me. I apologize. But, the truth remains. Fear is a powerful manipulator and I had been in its grips.
So I can say without a minute's hesitation–if by sharing her story, Caitlyn Jenner has shed light on the truth about transgender people, if she's given just one other person hope for a brighter future free from the pain of living a lie, then that's reason enough to recognize her courage and give the woman an award. If you disagree, if you think someone else is more deserving, feel free to advocate for your preference but do so without diminishing Caitlyn Jenner's contribution, since in all likelihood you simply do not understand!
One last note–I am embarrassed by my fellow Christians who claim to worship a God of love but refuse to show compassion to Caitlyn Jenner. I am specifically thinking of those people who have ridiculed and belittled Jenner's experience, who refuse to use her chosen name and thoughtlessly insist on using male pronouns, who have called her names, and who have sought to take away or tarnish the legitimately earned recognition for her superior athleticism. I realize my apology on their behalf cannot undo the pain their words and behavior have caused. Still, I am saddened and I do apologize.

CHEPs first conference was held on 1-2 March 2014 at Nairobi Jaffery Sports Club. The World Federation is very pleased to have had the opportunity to be part of this milestone, by contributing towards this event.
Updated on 12 March 2018
Salaam Alaykum and Greetings of Peace:
We have just witnessed the quick passing of the blessed month of Ramadan.Before we could realize it the month of hope and mercy where we were the special invited guests of Allah (swt) has just vanished like a blink of the eye. What does that teach us? This is a lesson of the reality of life. In the same way, our transient life in this world will also pass away. The time that we are allocated in this world to make our Duniya and Akherat will pass away like a fleeting moment. Let us resolve to continue with the good practices established during this month. Let these good practices, such as looking after the needs of others, and avoiding all type of sins, become part of our life from now on.
On the day of Eid-ul-Fitr, Imam Ali (as) delivered a sermon in which he said:
"O people! Verily this day of yours is the day when the righteous are awarded and the wretched are losers. It is a day which is similar to the one on which you shall be standing (before your Lord). Therefore, when you come out of your homes to go to places of your prayer, remind yourselves about the day when you (your souls) shall come out of your bodies to go to your Lord. When you stand on places of your prayer, remind yourselves of your standing inthe presence of your Lord (on the day of Judgment). And when you return to your homes (after prayer), remind yourselves about your returning to your homes in Paradise. O Servants of Allah! Verily the minimum reward for those men and women who fasted (during Ramadan), is an Angel, who calls out to them on the last day of the month of Ramadan (saying): O SERVANTS OF ALLAH! REJOICE THE GLAD TIDING THAT ALL YOUR PREVIOUS SINS HAVE BEEN FORGIVEN…"
Eid-ul-Fitr is a unique festival. It has no connection with any historical event nor is it related to the changes of seasons or cycles of agriculture. It is not a festival related to worldly affairs in any way. Its significance is purely spiritual as it is the day when Muslims thank God for having given them the will, the strength and the endurance to observe the fast and obey His commandments during the holy month of Ramadan.
Alhamdulillah! May Allah bless us all and grant us the willingness and capacity to use this Eid as a lens to focus the sunlight of good works, which have shone brightly during Ramadan, to enlighten our way throughout this upcoming year until the next Ramadan and beyond.
Imam Ali (as) has defined Eid as 'any day that is free of rebellion (or disobedience) against Allah swt.' He is quoted as saying "'Eid is for those whose fasts have been accepted and whose salaat are worthy of reckoning and every day when one does not commit a sin it is Eid"(Nahjul Balaghah,
Maxim no. 428)
The revelation of the Qur'an in this month was a great success, in that, amidst the surrounding darkness of the Jahiliyah period, among many things, this holy Book brought the light of ethical behaviour, morals, kindness and end of cruelty of burying female children alive. Let us resolve to continue reading, reciting, understanding, and applying the lessons of the Holy Quran. We at The World Federation are working on a program which will make it easier for the interested community members to understand the Qur'an better.
Imam Ali (as) gave one further formula for us to use always: "Remember Allah and He will remember you." The Imam (as) explained that one who adheres to the commandments of ALLAH swt is protected by Him. So, the Imam (as) told his audience to give the fitra of the individuals and their
dependents. The Imam (as) continued his khutba reminding the congregation of the obligations, amongst so many others, that they have towards Allah (swt).
Imam Al-Ridha (as) said that Eid is a day of unity. Hence, it is a day to give thanks and reaffirm faith in His favors and praise Him. Eid day is the first day when eating and drinking is once again permitted during daylight hours. So, for the seekers of Truth, Eid Al Fitris the first day of the year.
In the qunut of the salatul Eid, Imam Al-Baqir (as), beseeches Allah (swt), where he sought that which ALLAH swt's goodly souls wished to acquire from him, as well as protection from those matters that the goodly souls wished to be protected from.. Imam Al-Baqir (as) also reminded us of the sadness that accompanies the day of Eid, the sadness of the usurpation of the rights of the
Ahlul Bayt (as) and the violation of human rights.
The World Federation, with the support of the community, has stretched out to assist mo'meneen in about 18 countries by providing them with a decent meal during this holy month, as well as looking after their daily needs of necessities like clothing etc., However this goodwill has to be extended
beyond the holy month and we must persevere to raise their living standards so that they move away from being the needy to being the needless. This will be a continuous goal of The World Federation and for this noble cause I seek your continued and gracious support.
The Imam of our Time, Imam Al-Asr (atfs), has captured this sadness in the Du'a Nudbah (Supplication of Lamentation), which has been recommended to recite on Eid. The message of Eid Ul-Fitr is that no Muslim remains hungry on this day. It is a day that the rich and the poor enjoy happiness of the day, as the well-off give fitra to the less well off. The fitra ensures acceptance
of the fast as Imam Al-Sadiq (as) has explained that fasts remain suspended between the earth and the heavens until fitra is executed. The emphasis on fitra is so much that a family capable of giving just one person's fitra can rotate that self-same fitra among every member of that family and fulfill this
obligation. Indeed, a poor man receiving charity too should pay fitra from the sadaqat he receives. Thus, the rejoicing on the day of Eid is to obey Allah (swt) and serve humanity, the twin purport of Al-Islam that The Prophet (saw) defined for humanity.
As we witness nowadays, turmoil throughout the world, especially in the Middle East, has continued unabated. In fact it is sad to see that the virtuous standards and teachings of all of the basic religions of the world are violated. The essence of humanity is disappearing. We will continue to speak
out against injustice and use all means available to us to fight this fallacy. We urge the community to stand united in the face of this onslaught and resist any moves to disunite our closely integrated community. The challenge is to stay united, maintain our identity as one community while working within and among the greater Muslim and world community.
In conclusion a humble request to all of us to pray together to Allah (swt) to accept our noble deeds during this holy month and to make us continue the good work and practices attained in this blessed month. Ameen. On behalf of The World Federation I wish each and everyone of you a happy and prosperous Eid Mubarak.

When buying a new laptop, you usually think that it is safe and clean from malware. Well, it should be that way, but this is not always the case. Lenovo, a computer manufacturer, will have to pay $3.5 million because their computers contained malicious adware. There were thousands of customers affected.[1]
The buyers of said laptops had no idea that their device was ridden with threats even before going online. The said adware can steal sensitive information and compromise users' security. This definitely should not happen when buying a new PC. Lenovo will pay the fine, but will the developers restrain themselves from adding another piece of adware to other devices?
Well, the officials at Lenovo claimed that they won't ever do such a thing and will ask users for a permission before adding any similar software later on.[2]
Even though Lenovo implemented adware without the users' knowledge, it didn't really know about the actual dangers of the software. Nevertheless, the company still has to be held responsible for not ensuring that the adware is safe, and not warning the users about its installation.
Lenovo will also have to let a third-party to ensure that it does not use any similar tactics. This kind of security programme will be carried out for 20 years.
What did Superfish adware do?
All of this started in February 2015, when it was discovered that the company added a piece of adware developed by Superfish.[3]
Superfish was an advertising company based in California. Unfortunately, most of its products were regarded as malware by many security specialists. It used bundling techniques to spread its software, which allowed hackers to steal private information via malicious ads. The company closed in May 2015, just after the incident.
After the incident was disclosed, Windows Defender was updated to remove Superfish adware.
The particular piece of software in question is Visual Discovery.[4] Its title says it all – it analyses the pictures of the ads you click and produces its own advertisements related to your interests. That would not be a huge problem if you knew you have such a program. Otherwise, this is a threat to your privacy.
By the end of 2014, people began to notice these ads and started complaining. However, only in 2015 was this fact taken into consideration by security experts, who later discovered that the program did not really evaluate the level of safety of the websites it trusted.
Consequently, the users became exposed to malicious pages, as the password used by Visual Discovery was not complicated and was repeated throughout all the pages, making it very easy to hack. The victims could lose their information such as medical and financial data.
One of the nastiest things by Visual Discovery was making browsers not show any warnings when people visited dangerous pages.[5]
Don't forget to watch out for malware and take immediate actions when you notice suspicious advertisements on your browser. Malicious adware can:
- You might get spammed by an enormous number of pop-ups, banners, and in-text ads
- Your computer can slow down significantly
- You might get infected by a browser hijacker
- Your personal information can get leaked
Adware can really damage your system if not handled in time. You can use a powerful anti-malware tool to delete most of the adware and other malware in order to stay away from threats.

|November 1870
|FRANKLIN, Tennessee
|Church/Religious-Activity, Education, Women
|"Rise And Fall of the Slave South," University of Virginia
|5 (1 votes)
The Williamson Journal of Franklin, Tennessee announced the local marriage of Mary A Stinebaugh and Rev. Henry J. Bradford in late 1870. The outspoken Mary Stinebaugh graduated from Oberlin College and became a Methodist preacher before her marriage. Right before her wedding ceremony she preached before the entire conference in session. Afterwards she promptly stepped down to the altar to get married.
At the end of the report, the Williamson Journal exclaimed what a fix the reverend bride would be in if the conference should appoint her to a church distant from her husband. Though the writer did not Stinebaugh's progress as a woman, he found the occurrence of two preachers getting married strange and rare. In his confusion he ambiguously described Mary's position in society as one who has lately become somewhat noted as a Methodist Preacher, not knowing how to put it in words.
Though women preachers in 1870 were rare, Methodist women in the South were hungry for leadership opportunities and used their churches as an outlet to contribute to society. Edward Ayers, describes the Methodists as those who challenged dominant gender relationships, valuing faith over domestic loyalty and giving women a more prominent place. The Methodists were one of the Christian denominations more accepting of leadership among women though they usually prohibited women from gaining official denominational positions.
Through the church, women found ways to expand their leadership organizing their own special groups and societies. Tomas Frasier in his essay on Women and Religion described the situation of persevering southern female Methodists. As Methodist women began to seek and be denied positions of leadership in the denomination, they developed progressive societies to address the evils in the culture around them. They organized social settlements and a variety of services leaders which was most easily found through. Some created charities, or clubs that were based on women's skills, like sewing clothes for the poor, so that men could not take it over.
Women worked towards becoming influential within their churches and communities through public works. Some like Mary Stinebaugh received and education and did not shy away from speaking out in public. Southern women made fresh marks on society and as reconstruction progressed.

I have always liked the way my school's name is pronounced. Both a layman and an alumni prefer pronouncing YHSS as "Y-CHESS", like how we call the game of chess, a CHESS. There is a gross mistake in calling the words: wrong English!!! It sounds like how we pronounce PA-LAS-TIC BOT-TAL in villages for the plastic bottles, the sound so distorted. Yet I like a lot the sound in the name y-chess and bottals. It is our own calling - there is a whole world behind each of those one words.
To me, y-chess has an air of buoyancy in which the Bubble Universes afloat. Our life is a bubble universe - mine is a small one, yet it contains all aspects that makes it a universe, linked and de-linked with other bubbles.
So, what is a y-chess!

The conference will include a keynote by its CEO, Robert Schena, who will address delegates on data integrity in seaport and maritime industries.
(businesspress24) - The conference will include a keynote by its CEO, Robert Schena, who will address delegates on data integrity in seaport and maritime industries.
London, 14 March, 2018. Rajant Corporation, the world leader of Kinetic Mesh networks, will push its mission-critical connectivity capabilities to control moving port assets and drive autonomous applications from standing still at the Container Terminal Automation Conference 2018 this week.
With the charge toward automation and the unrelenting need for a constant flow of goods, Rajant will hone in on how to successfully manage and eradicate risks such as security, interference and hindered reliability in seaport and terminal environments.
As a recognised expert for mission-critical networks in challenging industrial markets, Rajant CEO Robert Schena will highlight the correlation between data security and the quality of the network during his keynote speech on Wednesday night, when he will address industry leaders in a talk titled, "How important is your data to you?"
"Ports are using technology to create better situational awareness, reduce losses and damage, and provide a speedy first response when security issues do occur," Schena said. "With seaports from Abu Dhabi to Louisiana implementing drones and IP video surveillance devices, the number of interconnected devices, cameras and sensors is fast-growing, but this also increases the need to secure and authenticate the communication traffic moving in, out and around the network."
Schena will explain how, while many are realising the importance of selecting wireless over fixed networks, traditional Wi-Fi networks and LTE suffer from limitations and connectivity challenges which can create several risks. In the event of loss of communication, even for a few microseconds, data sent from personnel or port equipment would be at best delayed, but often completely lost.
Rajant Kinetic Mesh(TM) networks, the only fully mobile and mission-critical network on the market today, use InstaMesh(R) in concert with BreadCrumb(R) nodes to dynamically make peer-to-peer connections, leveraging multi-frequency radios. These wireless nodes can be interchangeably fixed or mobile, and dynamically adapt to self-optimize as environmental conditions change, providing a highly reliable and secure network with no single point of failure. By deploying Rajant''s ruggedized multi-radio BreadCrumb(R) nodes, equipped with InstaMesh(R) networking software, directly onto a port asset - be it a vehicle, quay crane, camera pole or drone - it essentially turns the asset into a network node.
Chris Mason, Director of EMEA Sales at Rajant, will also solidify the company''s reputation as a world expert in a seaport''s automation demands. He will delve into how automated processes can evolve and provide mission-critical connectivity to every corner of the seaport, in a panel presentation titled, "Automation with Exponential & Disruptive Technologies."
"This panel session will be a great opportunity for Rajant to explore and educate on the business-critical implications and experiences of terminal automation, by using the knowledge of a port equipment manufacturer, digital services provider, port research organisation and Rajant''s mission critical communications capabilities," Mason said. "We are looking forward to showcasing our expertise and capabilities in the seaport sector to world experts and industry leaders at Container Terminal Automation Conference 2018."

Hello beauty lovers!
Looking at GLAMGLOW products I was always thinking that it is something from the budget range and was wondering why it is so popular?!? I don't know where those prejudices come from, but those turned out to be completely ungrounded…
First, GLAMGLOW masks really work – you can feel the effect already after the first application! I don't know about the long-term effect yet, but it definitely has the effect of the great skin on the day of application.
Second, the masks are very popular among celebrities in Hollywood, and they know how to Shine Bright Like a Diamond! 🙂 So, if you have some plans for the evening or important day when you'd like to look perfectly – Glamglow mask YOUTHMUD is exactly for those occasions (Red Carpet including ;-)).
YOUTHMUD® TINGLEXFOLIATE TREATMENT is one of the most popular GLAMGLOW masks. Moreover between it admirers are many celebrities of all ages.
Active ingredients: Volcanic Pumice Rock, French Sea Clay, TEAOXI Green Tea Leaf.
The consistency of the product is similar to exfoliator with a more richer structure then the usual one.
If your skin is sensitive, I suggest you to test the mask before applying on the face. As a sensitive skin owner I was worrying how it will work on my skin, but it worked very well actually. In the first 5 minutes after application you'll feel some tingle effect, although I don't like this effect on my skin, it simply means that the mask is working. In 10 minutes the tingle effect completely disappears and the mask becomes dry, thus it is time for washing it up.
The mask helps minimize the pores, lightly exfoliates the skin and refreshes it, this combination gives a great results in only 10 minutes! Now the skin is ready for any occasion, just apply moisturiser and makeup! YOUTHMUD mask is definitely the one that I am going to repurchase again and again :-).
Have you tried other GLAMGLOW masks? Are they good? Would love to hear any reviews and suggestions!

Normally open magnetic switches are intended to be used to trigger a relay
(furnished by others) which disables the paint system. Because of the small
capacity of the switch a solid state relay is recommended. It may be desired
by others to utilize a separate power supply to segregate the relay
(furnished by others) from the lighting power supply.
The magnetic switch IS NOT designed to directly control light operation!
The magnetic switch is rated for 10 watts resistive at a maximum of 300 VAC.

In college football, dominance is not an accident, it's expected. Regional and national powerhouses rise and fall all the time in the sport, but what remains is the mystique and prestige of success from years gone by. Every recruiter from Alabama to Southwest Missouri State uses the same formula to sway prospective blue chippers towards their institution: be the next legend to bring glory to our already storied history. The fact of the matter is that the premier programs win and have always won based on recruiting powers. Snag a future Gator out of Seminole country and you ensure that he will be leading the home crowd in the chomp and not the chop for the next four years.
The ten teams on this list have all achieved greatness at one point in time during the long history of college football. Some have sustained their presence on the national stage, while others have remained high in the wins category without the same status they once attained during their heyday. What all of these teams have in common are the accumulation of victories, trophies, and prestige. No matter their current status, these universities have earned the right to be among the elite. These are the winningest programs in college football history.
10 Penn Quakers - 828 Wins
The University of Pennsylvania has claimed the title of college football's most historic program for itself. Being able to claim John Heisman as an alumnus is a good start to backing up this claim. Sixty-three first team All-Americans is nothing to sneeze at either. 824 wins ranks the Quakers tenth all-time in college football history. Chief among those wins are seven national championships.
The Quakers are no longer a national power because they participate in Division I Football Championship Subdivision. However, Penn is one of the perennial powers of the Ivy League, claiming sixteen conference titles since joining the league in 1956. Thirteen of those titles are outright wins, the most in conference history.
The Quakers are especially dominant at their home, Franklin Field, which is the oldest stadium in college football. At home, the Quakers have claimed 23 unbeaten seasons in their friendly confines. From 1896 through 1899, Penn was undefeated for 35 straight home games, the fifteenth longest streak in history.
9 Harvard Crimson - 838 Wins
At the beginning of college football's history, Harvard, much like Penn, was one of the first football superpowers. From 1890 until 1919, the Crimson claimed nine national championships. The peak of this 29-year run came in 1918 and 1919. Along the way, Harvard went undefeated in 1919, crushing the competition by a margin of 229-19 and winning the 1920 Rose Bowl, the only bowl game appearance in school history.
No summary of Harvard's football history would be complete without "The Game," the rivalry between Harvard and Yale. Not only is the Harvard-Yale game a rivalry, it is the basis for everything the modern game of football is known for: rules, ceremonies, and equipment among other factors. Harvard has won the last seven meetings, closing the gap between them and Yale to 65-60-8.
8 Alabama Crimson Tide - 845 Wins
The Crimson Tide claims fifteen national championships belong to their credit. However, their first five titles (1925, 1926, 1930, 1934, 1961) were only first recognized by the university in the 1980s. In those years, Alabama was selected as national champions by numerous publications along with other universities also being selected as champion. It was not until 1961 when the Crimson Tide claimed its first title under coach Bear Bryant that the school claimed its first unanimous national championship.
Bryant won six national titles while patrolling the sidelines in Tuscaloosa. However, current coach Nick Saban is halfway to that total, winning BCS championships in 2009, 2011, and 2012. Currently, the Crimson Tide seem poised to contend for a fourth championship in six years in the new college football playoff format, further cementing the Saban era as one of the greatest dynasties in college football history.
7 Oklahoma Sooners - 848 Wins
The Sooners own many esteemed records that, in turn, set Oklahoma apart as one of the most successful programs in college football. Among them, Oklahoma has won 598 games since the end of World War II, the most by any team in the last 69 years. To further solidify their consistent resume of winning, Oklahoma is the only university that can claim four head coaches with 100 or more victories at the same school: Bob Stoops, Barry Switzer, Wilkerson, and Owen.
Since 1936, Oklahoma lays claim to sixteen national championships, the most by any team in that span. Seven of those titles are outright victories. Not very surprising when you consider that Oklahoma has been ranked number one in the nation by the Associated Press for 101 weeks in their history. National dominance by the Sooners has only been exceeded by their conference control in the form of 44 conference championships.
6 Ohio State Buckeyes - 856 Wins
Unofficially, the Buckeyes are fifteen-time national champions. However, the crowns recognized by the NCAA and Ohio State total up to seven. Starting with Paul Brown at the helm of the 1942 champs, then Woody Hayes' collection of five titles from 1954 through 1970, and ending with Jim Tressel's BCS championship victory in 2002, Ohio State has enjoyed long-term success.
In the Big Ten conference, of which Ohio State has been a member since 1912, the Buckeyes have won 34 conference titles. Only their chief rival, the Michigan Wolverines have won more Big Ten championships. However, the famous 'Ten Year War' in the 1970s between Hayes and Michigan head coach Bo Schembechler ignited the rivalry that still rages on to this very day. The Buckeyes got the best of the Wolverines from 1972-75, winning four straight Big Ten titles. However, Michigan beat Ohio State the final three years of Hayes' tenure in 1976-78.
5 Nebraska Cornhuskers - 873 Wins
Over the course of the last half century, no football program in the nation can match the Cornhuskers in total victories or winning percentage. The peak of Nebraska's fifty-year run came in the mid-'90s, claiming back-to-back national champions in 1994-95 and another in 1997. These title-winning teams marked the first time a team won three out of four titles since the 1946-49 Notre Dame squads did so. The Cornhuskers' back-to-back titles are only one of three instances of consensus repeat champions in college football history. The 1997 championship was shared with Michigan as was their 1970 title, which was also claimed by Texas.
4 Yale Bulldogs - 876
The Bulldogs, the winningest non-bowl eligible program on the list, are one of the pioneering schools in the sport of college football. Since their inception in 1872, the Bulldogs have tallied 865 victories for third on the all-time list.
27 national championship trophies on the mantle make Yale the most successful program from a title perspective. Not only does Yale have team success to boast, but also the two out of the first three Heisman Trophy winners, Larry Kelley and Clint Frank, belong to the Bulldogs. Among their other impressive individual numbers include 100 consensus All-Americans. Yale's notable alumnus include Walter Camp, who invented the modern game of American football, legendary coach Amos Alonzo Stagg, and the first professional football player, Pudge Heffelfinger.
3 Texas Longhorns - 879 Wins
When it comes to the postseason, the Longhorns are the picture of consistency. Texas's 52 bowl game appearances are the second most all-time with the Longhorns coming away victorious in 27 of them. In the final Associated Press poll of the season, the Longhorns have been ranked in the top 25 in the nation 66 out of 76 seasons from 1936 until 2012.
All in total, five national titles have been credited to Texas. The larger story of Texas's storied history are the 107 winning seasons of the 119 total years football has been played by the university. The Longhorns have eclipsed the ten win mark in 23 seasons and have finished undefeated nine times. All of which are NCAA records.
2 Notre Dame Fighting Irish - 881
Although the Fighting Irish still compete as an independent, Notre Dame is still a national power as far as the bowl subdivision is concerned. Considering that the school owns the record for winning percentage (.734) and total national championships (13) since 1900, it is no wonder that they are one of the premier programs in the history of the game.
Iconic golden domed helmets aside, the presence of Notre Dame reaches beyond autumn Saturdays in South Bend, Indiana. No other university has had more players drafted by the NFL and produced professional players in general than Notre Dame. As of 2014, 486 players have been drafted into the pros. Odds are, if you watch Notre Dame on NBC, which is the unabashed, official network for Fighting Irish football, you will witness a future professional.
1 Michigan Wolverines - 914
Leading the all-time wins list with over 900 victories, the Wolverines have been one of the upper echelon programs since their creation in 1879. A founding member of the Big Ten in 1896, Michigan has at least a stake in 42 conference championship crowds. Oklahoma (44) and Nebraska (46) are the only two universities with more conference titles to their respective credits. Michigan has eleven national titles that the Wolverines can claim as their own.
To put into perspective how ingrained Michigan is into the fabric of college football, consider that they played in the 1902 Rose Bowl, the first college bowl game ever played. History is in the Wolverines' blood. Right down to the winged helmets Fritz Crisler brought over from Princeton or their heated rivalry with Ohio State, Michigan checks all the boxes for what you look for in a program rich in history, excellence, and tradition.

Pochettino To Make 3 Changes: Predicted Tottenham XI vs Huddesfield
Tottenham will look to maintain their recent form when they take on newly-promoted Huddersfield Town on Saturday lunchtime.
Here is the side we think Mauricio Pochettino will select for the game:
Goalkeeper: Number one goalkeeper Hugo Lloris is expected to once again start between the sticks with Michel Vorm on the bench.
Defence: Pochettino will welcome back Jan Vertonghen after he served a one-game suspension in the Champions League on Tuesday night so the Belgian international should make an immediate return at the back.
Toby Alderweireld is certain to keep his place in the back three while Davinson Sanchez should continue in defence after making an impressive start to life in north London.
Midfield: Serge Aurier will miss the game due to suspension following his sending off during the win at West Ham last weekend. Keiran Trippier will therefore start in the right wing-back position.
Ben Davies should retain his place on the left with Danny Rose still injured while Eric Dier is certain to start in the holding midfield role once again with Victor Wanyama still out with a knee injury.
Mousa Dembele is expected to miss out due to injury so Moussa Sissoko could start in midfield – although Harry Winks is an option for Pochettino after impressing in midweek.
Attack: Spurs will be able to call upon Dele Alli once again after he served a European suspension during the win at APOEL while Christian Eriksen should overcome illness to return in attack.
Heung-min Son is expected to drop out while Harry Kane will be looking to continue his sensational form having scored a hat-trick last time out.
Here is how I think Spurs will line-up:

Heat–health action plans
Europe has experienced an unprecedented rate of warming in recent decades. Heat-waves are projected to increase due to climate change, but their health effects are largely preventable.
WHO/Europe recommends countries and regions in Europe to develop and implement heat–health action plans, to prevent, react to and contain heat-related risks to health.
- An online tool provides medium-term forecasting of heat-waves and can support health services' planning.
- An information package provides guidance for policy-makers, health professionals and the public on how to prevent and cope with the health effects of heat-waves.
WHO/Europe supports its Member States in preventing the adverse health effects of heat-waves by providing:
- technical advice;
- support in strengthening surveillance systems to better describe climate-related health effects;
- reliable evidence on heat-related mortality and adaptation;
- guidance on defining criteria for action;
- information exchange on monitoring and evaluation of existing adaptation measures.

|The best web technologies and programming language to learn in 2018
We are already in the early days of the year so why this question, you may be wondering. It is very likely that you have not tried all these languages yet. So this list will allow you to catch up or give you some surprises. Each of these languages deserves your attention.
"What language (programming) should I learn for this year?"
This question is very often asked. But the problem with her is that it's like someone asking what car he should buy. The answer depends on several factors. Do you want to buy a new car or a used one? Which form do you prefer? What kind of engine do you expect?
It's also the same scenario with web development.
Do you want to work individually or for a company? How far are you willing to invest to learn? Do you have enough time to learn? What are your current capabilities when it comes to development? Why do you want to learn to program?
To begin
Note that this list is a simplified and appropriate list for 2018, thus not including all programming languages on the market. We will do our best to answer as honestly as possible the question asked previously. Obviously, it is not so easy to measure the popularity of a programming language.
After researching and analyzing popular designs like PYPL, TIOBE, Trendy Skills, Google Trends, and especially after speaking with experts, we can say that the trend for 2018 is:
Ø JavaScript
Ø Java
Ø Python
Ø TypeScript
If you want to become a front-end developer
(HTML & CSS are not 'programming languages', but I put them on the list to help beginners.
HTML is the plan, the 'shell' of a website.
HTML5 is the latest version of HTML and is dynamic, meaning you can create beautiful websites with fewer codes and do more things. It's a good language to learn for the next 3 years. Read what Steve Jobs said about HTML5 here. https://www.engadget.com/2015/01/28/now-that-youtube-has-jumped-to-html5-heres-what-steve-jobs-sai/
CSS gives a style to websites. You can find the things you can do with CSS by clicking here http://www.mezzoblue.com/zengarden/alldesigns/.
CSS3 is the latest version of CSS and it is also dynamic. HTML5 and CSS3 work perfectly together.
Learn CSS here https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_intro.asp.
JavaScript is the most used programming language in the world. JavaScript can be illustrated with 'if this, so this'. The latest version of JavaScript (ES2017) was released this year and developers are already excited to try it. Once you understand how JavaScript works, you should learn jQuery https://jquery.com/ . The latter is a library of different 'plugins' to add to your code. These plugins will save you time and make it easier for you to add functionality.
Note: JavaScript can also be a back-end language, but to put it simply, I put it in the front-end language section.
Learn JavaScript here https://www.javascript.com/resources
TypeScript is a static language that compiles with JavaScript and is growing rapidly! The new version 2.1 includes all new features with static type options. One of its advantages is also better bug control in your code or against any typos, async / await and more https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/typescript/2016/12/07/announcing-typescript-2-1/ It is also the preferred language for writing Angular 2 applications.
Learn TypeScript here https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/tutorial.html
and here https://www.edx.org/course/introduction-typescript-microsoft-dev201x-1
If you want to become a back-end developer
PHP is the most popular server-side programming language in the world.
It is generally used as a basis for Content Management Systems (CMS) for WordPress and other websites such as Wikipedia and Facebook.
PHP 7.1 was released in December 2016.
Learn PHP here http://www.learn-php.org/
Django on Python
Python is an object-oriented language that is very similar to the English language. This makes it an excellent language to learn for beginners as well as for experienced professionals.
Instagram, YouTube, Reddit, NASA, for example, all use Python.
The Python 3.6 release came out in December 2016 with great features
Learn Python here https://www.codementor.io/collections/learn-python-bwbc63ulz
C # ('see-sharp') is a programming language widely used in the world. It is not just limited to the Microsoft's .NET platform.
It is also used for iOS and Android applications with Xamarin technology and Windows applications.
Version 7.0 was released in August 2016 with incredible features.
Learn C # here https://www.pluralsight.com/courses/csharp-from-scratch
Ruby on rails
Rails is a framework built on Ruby programming language, it's released the first time in 2004, but it became very popular in latest years, ruby on rails now rivals other backend web technologies such as node.js, Django, PHP, you can learn it from its official website and documentation from this link: http://rubyonrails.org/.
Node.js is a powerful environment to let javascript programming language works on the server side, it used in web programming and it has good and powerful benefits especially in chat programming because it works with the non-blocking concept and it builds amazing real-time apps.
In summary
If you want to become a full stack developer, we recommend you learn the basics of HTML, CSS, and Bootstrap. And once you master these 'languages', learn TypeScript and two back-end languages of your choice.
It's NOT KNOW everything that counts, but what you are able to DO with the knowledge you have.
Remember that it's not because you master JavaScript, C #, Ruby, Go, and others as a leader that you will necessarily have a job. This is the biggest of the programming:
It's up to you. We showed you the best programming languages of 2018. Now it's up to you to choose the best for you!

An ideal introduction to understanding the famous composer.
A British broadcaster and renowned Beethoven expert, Suchet (The Last Waltz: The Strauss Dynasty and Vienna, 2016, etc.) is a terrific guide for general readers to delve into the life, art, and times of the great composer. It's like attending a lively, entertaining, and informative lecture, with a slide show of illustrations going by in the background: here's Wolfgang Mozart (1756-1791) as a young boy (Wolferl to his family), mischievously smiling, here's the 16-year-old Beethoven playing the piano for the 31-year-old Mozart, who later said, "watch out for that boy; one day he will give the world something to talk about." Suchet's aim is to truly "reveal the man," warts and all. Leopold, his always difficult, domineering father, saw the genius early on when, at age 3, Mozart could replicate what his talented older sister Nannerl was playing at the clavichord. He was soon playing the instrument (blindfolded, later), composing music, and teaching himself the violin. Leopold immediately saw a moneymaking opportunity and took both on a rigorous road tour, the first of many. Mozart was 6. Suchet notes that no "other composer travelled as much as Mozart." Overall, it was 3,720 days, nearly one-third of his life. He never attended school, was forever on display, and was often ill. He worked constantly at composing, which was "as natural as breathing." The author draws extensively on the many surviving letters to help fashion his discerning portrait of an often witty and happy genius who also delighted in the scatological. He lightly touches on many of Mozart's compositions with just the right amount of analysis and opinion. The Marriage of Figaro "would change the face of opera." Don Giovanni was his "finest, most complex, most dramatically and musically perfect opera." Jupiter, Mozart's final piece, written "with unhappiness around him," is "indisputably his greatest symphony."
Rich with wit and warmth,
this compact biography is thoroughly enchanting.
