Hotel guests want to be able to get online to:
- Cast videos from their Netflix, Prime, or Hulu subscription
- Check and send email
- Video conference
- Research attractions
- Make reservations
- Update social media
- Stream music
- Check flight status
And they want to do it all without making their personal information vulnerable to hackers, viruses, or malware. In the same way guests expect hot water and electricity, they expect to be able to use as much bandwidth as they want whenever they want because that's what they do at home. You can't blame them. The familiarity of online connections is part of what makes a hotel stay feel like home away from home. They feel safe at home. They want to feel safe in your hotel, too.
You make efforts to ensure guests are physically safe on your property: mopping wet surfaces, adding security cameras, hiring late night security guards, ensuring walkways and the parking lot are well lit, installing smoke detectors and fire sprinklers, etc. Why wouldn't you do everything possible to keep guests' digital identities secure as well?
Of course you want to provide those things for guests. It's why you're in the hospitality industry in the first place: to be hospitable. But you're not sure you can enhance wireless connectivity and wireless security at the same time. The two seem to be mutually exclusive in your mind.
They don't have to be. You can do both. Simultaneously. With one vendor.
Start with secure hardware
Not all access points (APs) are created equally. Use Samsung Networks wall plate APs in each guest room to minimize the number of users associated with each AP. Use Samsung enterprise indoor and outdoor APs to provide seamless handoffs across the entirety of the property, from the pool bar to the laundry room and everywhere in between.
Samsung Networks' wall plate APs are engineered to provide in-room connectivity for multi-dwelling units. Outdoor APs are designed to withstand the elements and provide connection outside buildings on the property: balconies, rooftops, poolside, patios, gardens, etc. Indoor enterprise APs are engineered to function in high-density environments with multiple users, for those occasions when the lobby is full, the hotel is hosting a conference, or all of the staff need connectivity at the same time during peak seasons.
How that expands your wireless network capabilities:
- In-room APs provide more consistent connectivity for guests because the signal doesn't have to navigate structural interference like fire walls, stairwells, or elevator shafts.
- Quality coverage throughout the property allows you to use technologies like IoT to help manage facilities and operations.
Manage the hotel wireless network with intelligent controllers
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technologies, when incorporated into Wi-Fi network controllers, empower those controllers to act autonomously. They troubleshoot certain AP problems preemptively, meaning IT managers can handle more APs because they don't have to troubleshoot them all manually.
More importantly for this particular discussion, though, the intelligent controllers can be configured to trigger a specific action when network security is threatened. Such machine learning technology staves off breaches before they can wreak havoc on the hotel or the guests using the wireless network.
Personal Area Networks (PAN)
You want your wireless network to distinguish between different types of users because different users will need it for different reasons. For example, management will use it more for operations, staff for communication, and guests for business, personal, and entertainment reasons. You don't want a guest who is streaming a movie to monopolize bandwidth and interfere with operations or vice versa.
There are a couple of ways to segment the network: statically or dynamically. A static VLAN would segment all guests onto one SSID, making everyone susceptible to each other's activity. That's not the most secure option. Nor does it lend itself to a positive guest experience.
Dynamic VLAN (DVLAN) assigns a personal area network (PAN) to each guest, meaning their activities only affect them and not other guests. This is the more secure option. Additionally, it provides guests with a better connectivity experience since they don't have to compete for bandwidth or deal with network failures caused by the activities of other guests. Personal information is removed securely when the guest checks out of the hotel.
Samsung Networks makes it possible to do what you didn't think you could: expand your wireless network and keep personal information secure. Schedule a free consultation with one of our Wi-Fi experts today.Connect with Samsung

Week 18 – Come Together!
Welcome to the Big Reveal of our Beguiling Mystery QAL! It has been such an amazing journey together and you have no idea how amazing it has been to see all your amazing projects come together right along side of mine.
Beguiling will always have a special place in my heart, along with our Kismet pattern, as my first forays into digital quilt design using Adobe Illustrator. I am totally hooked and hope you're enjoying the results! A giant thank you goes out to Pat Bravo of Art Gallery Fabrics for partnering with me and providing the gorgeous prints from her Artisan and Dare fabric lines.
So, without further ado, here is Beguiling in all her {as-yet-un-quilted} glory!!
Let's break her down a bit! Along the course of the QAL we gave our blocks cheeky little names to hide their true identities … so here they are with their official "quilty" names.
In essence, this is really a traditionally pieced quilt with borders and sashing! 🙂
Now, many of you are already asking about the next mystery quilt along. The short answer is that we will ABSOLUTELY be doing another one … I don't have a lot of information to share yet, but you can read more here.
If you are looking for some new projects in the meantime, consider becoming an official Cora's Quilts pattern tester! You can read more about it here.
Some helpful Quilt Top Construction hints
- Because this project has so many seams intersecting at multiple angles, I chose to press my seams open while putting my quilt top together.
- If your blocks aren't quite lining up, sew with the larger block on the bottom. The feed dogs will help ease a bit of the excess!
- As with our block construction, be more concerned with lining up your triangle tips and the areas where two different prints come together, rather than lining up your block edges … they'll be hidden anyways! 🙂
- If you end up with a "rippley" section, finish sewing up the blocks or rows and then go back to rip out and re-sew the area you're unhappy with. Oftentimes the ripples smooth out quite a bit with the second sewing.
Parade of Finishes
We will be having a parade of finishes towards the end of July, which will include the beauty shots of my own quilted project. I will announce the exact date soon.
If you aren't sharing photos in our facebook community or on Instagram using hashtag #BeguilingMysteryQuilt, but would still like to be included in the parade, you can send me your finished project pics directly by clicking here.

Who is a radiographer?
Radiographers, also known as radiologic technologists, diagnostic radiographers and medical radiation technologists are healthcare professionals who specialise in the imaging of human anatomy for the diagnosis and treatment of pathology.
Radiographers use different kinds of radiation to treat ill or injured patients. There are two kinds of radiography: diagnostic – where you use radiation to find out what injury or illness someone has and therapeutic – where you use different kinds of radiation to treat an illness or injury.
Currently to become a radiographer in Ghana you need to do a degree in radiography that has been approved and accredited by the Allied Health Professions Council (AHPC) and the National Accreditation Board (NAB). Upon successful completion of the degree, you are then required to do a one-year compulsory internship under the supervision of a qualified and accredited senior radiographer. After the internship, you are then required to sit a licensure examination that one must pass to be given a license to practice as a radiographer. It is illegal to practice as a radiographer or seek to perform the duties of a radiographer without being registered with the AHPC as a radiographer.
Who is a biomedical engineer?
Biomedical Engineering (BME) or Medical Engineering is the application of engineering principles and design concepts to medicine and biology for healthcare purposes. Also included under the scope of a biomedical engineer is the management of current medical equipment within hospitals while adhering to relevant industry standards. This involves equipment recommendations, procurement, routine testing and preventative maintenance, through to decommissioning and disposal. To become a biomedical engineer in Ghana one requires a degree from a university accredited by the NAB.
The genesis of the current problem
Sometime in 2016, the National Tuberculosis Control Program (NTBCP) took delivery of some digital x-ray equipment for deployment across the country. The Ghana Society of Radiographers was informed about the arrival of the equipment in the country. The society had not been involved in the planning process this project and at no point was the society involved until after the equipment had arrived in the country. Again, none of the radiography departments in the two universities (University of Ghana and University of Cape Coast) was involved in any way in the project. The Ministry of Health, Ghana Health Services and the NTBCP did not see the need to involve the two bodies to ensure that the human resources needed for the successful implementation of the project were taken into consideration.
Interestingly, the Ghana Society of Radiographers did not get any further information beyond being informed about the arrival of the said equipment. The society, however, intercepted a letter signed by the Director-General of the GHS dated 19th July 2017 which amongst other things requested regional directors of health services to employed people he described as 'unlicensed radiographers' on a temporary basis to operate the x-ray equipment. In this letter, the director general also claims to have gotten a waiver from the Nuclear Regulatory Authority to employ these unqualified persons to operate x-ray equipment. Interestingly, the Nuclear Regulatory Authority is not the body that regulates the practice of radiographers in Ghana and yet it is the body that is supposedly giving a waiver to allow untrained persons to operate x-ray equipment.
The society of radiographers, therefore, protested this action of the Director-General of the Ghana Health Services and also the Nuclear Regulatory Authority. The protest was what lead to the first involvement of the society of radiographers in the whole of this project. In a letter dated 5th March 2018 signed by the Director General of the GHS, the society of radiographers was invited to a meeting to address the shortage of radiographers. The letter listed four issues that were supposed to be discussed at the meeting. These issues are
- The current challenges regarding recruitment of radiographer into GHS
- Efforts made to attract radiographers into the GHS
- Short term measures to be put in place to attract these officers
- Long term measures to be put in place to address recruitment challenges.
The society of radiographers decided it was important to go to that meeting prepared to deal with the fact that the GHS had shown clearly it was interested in employing unqualified persons to handle radiation even though that was not part of the items listed for discussion in the letter. A three-man Committee was put together to draft alternative solutions to the problem at hand. The Committee was made up myself, Kojo DeHeer a consultant radiographer (currently consulting for the WHO on structuring Radiology services in Sierra Leone) and Ntiri Theophilus the Head Radiographer at Akai house. The committee proffered alternative solutions to engaging unqualified persons to handle radiation. Amongst the solutions was to use newly qualified radiographers who would be available from September 2018 to cover these areas where the equipment has been installed. As part of the legal requirement to be registered as radiographers they are required to do a one-year compulsory internship under a senior radiographer.
Our proposal then was to zone all the areas where the equipment had been delivered to and appoint senior radiographers within these zones to supervise their operations. The fear that the students will leave after a year was also addressed in a way that every year new students will graduate and can replace those who are done with the compulsory internship should they decide to leave. It was also anticipated that some of them will wish to stay on at these places if they are offered a job. Unfortunately, the GHS refused this proposal and almost a year later we are back here and they are screaming emergency. If they had adopted this solution the equipment would be working now and operated by qualified radiographers but for whatever reason the GHS rejected it.
This September, the University of Ghana will again graduate 25 radiographers who will be available for this scheme and from September next year, University Cape Coast will also graduate its first batch of 50 radiographers who will also be available for such a scheme. The committee gave the ministry of health and Ghana Health Services the current enrolment figures of students in Radiography in UCC, Legon, UHAS and KNUST and showed clearly in the next 4 years on the average the 4 institutions will be producing in excess of 125 radiographers. From next year between Legon and UCC, 75 radiographers will be graduated.
However, the GHS showed that it is a confused entity that did not know what it was about. It had initially started by requesting the regional health directors to recruit persons to occupy these positions and then after a while it decided it was better to rather recruit biomedical engineers for this job. Clearly, this is just a trial an error thing that is being done at the GHS. This is clearly shown in a letter signed by the regional director of health services in the western region requesting that the staff the radiology department at Effia Nkwanta regional hospital should train an unqualified person to handle radiation.
What is surprising is that when there was a shortage of medical officers in the western region, the regional director of health services in a letter dated 10th April 2018 addressed to all district directors of health services within the region stated amongst other things that to attract medical officers to the region they should be offered the following incentives;
- Decent accommodation furnished with soft furniture and satellite TV.
- Supported with fuel and per Diem to attend CPD programs, monthly meetings with the Regional Director of health services, GMA meetings and occasional transport to see family if they are not together.
- In addition, the medical officers should be sponsored for further studies where he or she decides to go for specialisation.
However, the DG claims radiographers were refusing to take postings to the areas where the equipment would have been installed, his solution is that unqualified persons should be engaged to handle radiation. When it had to do with medical officers, they offered incentive packages to attract them to these areas but in the case of radiographers, they can't be offered incentives because they are fewer Ghanaians than the medical officers. This shows the total lack of respect and regard for radiographers by the DG which is unbecoming for someone occupying his position.
Falsehood by the Director-General
The Director-General of GHS in an interview on TV3 argues that there are just a little over 140 radiographers in Ghana. That is an untruth being perpetrated by no less a person than the DG of GHS, even if he does not have the figures of radiographers in Ghana, a single phone call could give him the numbers of radiographers in the country. The society of radiographers has 300 plus registered members and mind you it is not compulsory for all radiographers to be members of the society; it is therefore very likely there are some few radiographers who are not members of the society. I have personally worked with some radiographers who are not registered members of the Society. Why the D-G of GHS will intentionally peddle obvious untruth beats my mind.
Additionally, the consensus the D-G refers to in his interview with TV3 is the first proposal in the list of proposed solutions offered by the society of radiographers. At the said meeting, it was not agreed that unqualified persons be given a short training to go handle radiation. Agreeing that unqualified persons should handle radiation is equivalent to giving a trigger-happy drunk teenager a loaded gun to protect your life. It is therefore absurd and most ridiculous for him to attempt to create the impression at the stakeholder meeting, the consensus reached was to allow unqualified persons to handle radiation.
Director General Must Resign
The D-G in his interview with TV3 clearly admits that he knows of persons who are operating x-ray equipment who are unqualified and do not have any training whatsoever. He uses that as a basis to argue that what he is proposing is better since in his case the persons will be given some short training. Firstly, to admit that he knows of the illegality being committed but he has looked in the other direction for the illegality to be perpetuated means he is not fit to be in office. Clearly, he has shown that he does not care about the general population in Ghana. For someone who is a trained medical practitioner of his experience he should know the dangers associated with putting radiation in the hands of unqualified persons and for him to know that persons were being exposed to danger by unregistered and unqualified persons and decided to look away makes him an accomplice and unfit to occupy his position. Can he, in all honesty, say that if the said practitioner was posing as a medical officer in a facility without a medical officer he would have looked away?
Secondly the fact that he is aware there is a law ACT 857 2013 that requires that for anyone to practice as a radiographer or performs the duties of a radiographer the person should be registered by the AHPC, failing to do so commits an illegality and yet not only did he look away when others were doing it, he is now actively promoting an illegality to be committed and defending same on national TV. This is not a person fit to lead Ghana Services, he is not just incompetent but he is perpetuating and supporting illegalities.
Again, in the same interview, he argues that the training will be done in conjunction with the Nuclear Regulatory Authority which regulates the practice of radiography in Ghana. It is not just shameful, but embarrassing that the D-G of GHS does not know the body that regulates the practice of radiographers in Ghana. I would want to know from the DG who will regulate the practice of his biomedical engineers since they are not radiographers and can't use the title and the health professional regulations ACT 857 does not make provision for them? He also argues that it is a stop-gap measure, so what happens to them when the gap is filled, what becomes of his biomedical engineers? There is a shortage of surgeons in Ghana and since the biomedical engineers fix the equipment used in the theatre just like they fix those used in the radiology department why don't we train the biomedical engineers to become surgeons as a stop-gap measure? Why will the DG and GHS prefer to use biomedical engineers over newly qualified radiographers to handle the equipment and yet run to the media proclaiming a shortage of radiographer?
In conclusion, I am of the considered opinion that the D-G has shown he is not fit to be in public office by his deed, actions and inactions. The occupants of public office must show some level of integrity and should be seen as upright and exemplary citizens. They should be seen to be law abiding and not acting as accomplices and also perpetuating illegalities and in the process exposing the very citizens whose taxes are used to pay them to danger. The people most at danger are women of the reproductive age and infants. We should not be surprised if Ghana begins to record high numbers of cancer cases if we allow this policy to proceed. That is a scary possibility. I write this piece not just as a radiographer but as a citizen who comes from one of the places where this insensitive and misguided policy is to implement. I will fight this illegality with my blood and as for the bodies like the NRA and Radiation Protection Institute their loud silence has been noted and their support for this illegality is being communicated to the IAEA.

Staying in North Pembrokeshire in a our holiday cottage we came upon a sign nearby at the top of a lane to this small attraction. What a find, it was a little gem.
Castell Henllys is tucked deep within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park and is a reconstructed Iron Age Fort owned and run by the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park.
The Roundhouses are reconstructed on the site of the originals and you can sit inside by an open fire and listen to stories and legends of days gone by.
There is something for everybody whatever your age. Whether you want to take part in activities in the Iron Age Village such as spear throwing, face painting, milling flour and making bread, smelting iron, weaving and building with wattle and daub. Or take part in more varied activities that the National Park Rangers put on every week during the school holidays such as guided walks, Bushcraft with Richard the Ranger or just go for a stroll on one of the many walks that can be downloaded from the National Park website on www.pembrokeshirecoast.wales/default.asp?PID=401
We left the younger ones taking part in Iron Age activities with 'real Celts' whilst we went on a guided tour of the site where we learnt about all the archaeological digs that have taken place here and how people lived in the Iron Age. We ended our visit having a delicious lunch served with a friendly smile in the excellent on site cafe - Y Ysgubor. They also serve coffees, teas, snacks and yummy cakes.
Later in the afternoon we took the dogs for a walk in the close by Pengelli Woods which is a National Nature Reserve and the largest block of ancient woodland in Pembrokeshire and West Wales and is owned and run by the South and West Wales Wildlife Trust.
We spotted ash, alder, wych elm, wild cherry, oaks and birches but there was so much more and it was teeming with wildlife, birds, beetles and evidence of badgers. What an amazing day!PS: we stayed in this lovely property situated at the Dyfed Shire Horse Farm - www.welsh-cottages.co.uk/single-property/2217

The Former French Concession
Hengshan Lu, by Dongping Lu
- add to my favorites
In 1849, much of Shanghai was carved up and shared among the key colonial powers of Europe. Much of what is known today as the Xuhui and Huangpu districts went to the French. And while the concession era is widely regarded as an unfortunate blight on the city's history, there's no denying that France's colonial legacy has made this one of the more atmospheric areas in town. Narrow, tree-lined streets and modernist architecture make it great for a casual stroll. It is home to several consulates -- Poland, The U.S. and France, to name a few – as well as some of the city's trendiest bars, cafes and restaurants, all of which make it a popular area among the city's young professional population.
You may also like
The Bund
If you were to take a postcard snapshot of Shanghai, The Bund is where you'd go. Stately and taciturn, it comprises more than ten blocks of architectural relics from Shanghai's days as a treaty port. In its heyday, this riverside district was the city's commercial and financial center, home to foreign-owned banks, trading houses, luxury hotels and gentlemen's clubs. For nearly four decades, much of it lay dormant as state-owned properties until 1999, when the opening of the restaurant M on the Bund sparked a real estate development renaissance. Today, The Bund is home to some of Shanghai's poshest restaurants and nightclubs as well as some of its swankest hotels. The waterfront promenade is also a perennial favorite for casual strolls and photo opps.
Lu Jia Zui
Across the Huangpu River, Lujiazui thrusts brazenly up to the heavens. 30 years ago, this district was nothing more than marshes and rice paddies. Today, it's home to one of Asia's most audacious skylines. Here you'll find three of the city's most distinctive structures: The 468 meter-high spire of spheres and cylinders known as Oriental Pearl Tower, the 88-floor pagoda-themed Jinmao Tower and the bottle opener-shaped Shanghai World Financial Center, the world's fourth tallest building. Soon to join them is a third skyscraper, the Shanghai Tower, which, when completed in 2014, will be second in height only to Dubai's Burj Khalifa.
Yu Garden
Once a colorful, cacophonous warren of lane houses, Shanghai's old quarter has largely fallen victim to the wrecking ball. But the heart of it, the Yu Garden Bazaar, still remains largely intact. This is your go-to place for Shanghai souvenirs – everything from jade bangles to dragon kites to ornamental chopsticks. It's also a convenient place to tick a few boxes on your "Must Eat" list. You can sample Shanghai's signature soup dumplings at Nanxiang Mantou or eat at Lu Bo Lang, where Shanghai's leaders treat foreign dignitaries like Bill Clinton to dinner. Of course, if that sounds too exotic, the place is dotted with familiar Western chains like Starbucks, KFC and McDonald's as well. Be sure to take a stroll through the elegant Ming Dynasty-era garden in the center of the bazaar.
Nearby Venues
Marienbad Cafe
A coffee shop that is very popular with locals and the odd expat, Marienbad Cafe is a quaint, little retreat hidden on one of the area's quieter streets. The cozy interior's ambiance is more inclined toward that of a used book store then the cold sterility of many of Shanghai's other coffee stops. A typical drink menu is supplemented by a limited food carte du jour.?

Additionally, this will give you a lot of time to take pleasure from the game somewhat than having it the played hard way. This kind of has been made possible with the creation of a new online tool that can be reached relatively easy and fast or others may want to download the off-line tool too, whichever suits best.
I know, there is a lot of critics out there making fun or probably holding out to dish this state off as "to good to be true"but I actually guarantee you what is promised is true, and you could test it yourself, if you have doubtst. Hay Day Hack I have already been a Pokemon Go player for over a month now, and i also performed not believe such website exist, let alone, a tool such as this. I was so skeptical to start with just like any of you here, but something forced me to try this tool. And now, We are very thankful of the because, I can totally enjoy and grasp the concept of the sport, more than any of you here.. Now, I do not have to spend a lot of days waiting or finding or leveling or farming money in the sport, who would want to do that? I realize almost all of you are fed up with this "Free-to-Play" scheme, to play the game for free yet you will face the fact of having hindered to play it the way you want it to be because you are required to spend real money..
For those who are like me that is involved about protection and security of applying this Pokemon Go hack tool, you are assured that nothing harmful will at any time happen. This is a cheats iphone app that was conceptualized with the quantity one priority in brain, that is safety. Therefore, the developer made it a point to combine ip proxy and hiding so to avoid fees on accounts. I, definitely, can attest to this claim since I are personally using this tool for more than monthly and I have never had any issue, whatsoever. Hay Day Crack

Disclaimer: This website is not affliated to Pokemon Go's developer and publisher Nintendo. Pokemon Proceed Hack is a device that is intended not to encourage anyone to trim towards hacking and game imbalance but instead the sole purpose of this is for educational consciousness especially to the designers of the game based on the flaws and how they can be about it to improve their game against exploits.
(Short answer)
Absolutely all of the free gem/resource generator websites are FAKE, and does not work at all. But there are alternative ways to get hacked app data.
(Why they do this)
These websites are just a big scam to get people to download an app and play it for 30 seconds because they get payed for it, just like how YouTubers get payed for having people watch advertisements. It is not possible for a website to give you resources through the games server, as there are many anticheat systems on games like clash royale. Even I tried to hack clash royale with game guardian, but could not because it is on a server. When you click on generate, the texts that say something like 999999 gems added successfully, verification failed are fake and just there for special effects to make it seem more legit. Please spread this imformation so we can stop these people from making money and fools out of us for thinking we can hack an online game with a website.
(Alternative working way for Android)
You might have seen videos where they say you can download a hacked apk and have the download in the description. Most of the videos WORK, but others are just ad redirect links. For example, if you Click on the download button, you get redirected to a fake virus website, or another website that has the word download apk. I have tried this once and it worked. Some of them are complicated, where you have to download a file explorer app to use the apk. In short, Using an apk download works. (Important) If you are new to downloading things off the internet, there are fake download buttons that are really ads disguised as download buttons, which most of them are viruses so be very care full and make sure the download button is the actual download button. Most of the time, to see if a download button is fake, look at the corners of the button. If is shows ad, it is a virus and not the real download button. This is advice from a REAL mobile game hacker.

As in the following figure if you combine a cylinder with a cube you will find the meshing is something like as in the left; we would like however to have it as in the right.
(at least in the render window when we use a wireframe material for the above.)
How to make something like that?

The prospect, and subsequent reality, of central banks winding down asset purchase programs has been a recurring theme in global markets since the "taper tantrum" first exploded into investor consciousness in May 2013. More recently, and particularly in the light of European Central Bank President Mario Draghi's comments at Sintra, markets have focused on the likely pace and timing of European Central Bank (ECB) tapering. Many are expecting further hints at the upcoming Jackson Hole convention on August 24 and 25.
In the first of our articles, Shaun Stevens reviews the Federal Reserve's (Fed) 2014 tapering experience, and the run up to the first rate hike in December 2015, for clues on how ECB tapering might play out this time around, and the implications for listed European real estate.
Most of our Intelligence Report articles look at the bigger picture, analysing macroeconomic and political events, and their impact on financial markets. Our second article differs from this pattern in examining a single transaction (albeit a large one) – Amazon's pending acquisition of Whole Foods Market – but one which, as Pam Woo argues, has the potential to be transformative, not only for the two companies involved, but for the grocery sector and even the broader retail sector more generally.Download to read more

Fan Recaps and Comments:
John Relph wrote in 1988:
- "They played electric, with lots of pre-sequenced parts. Funny, silly, but they've already been described at length in this list. And just whose face is that hanging above the stage? My friend said, about the song 'Why Does the Sun Shine?', 'They could play that song on Sesame Street... they've got all the basic scientific facts down.' Yes, 'The Sun is a mass of incandescent gas/ A great big nuclear furnace...' They had a signing at Tower Records in Berkeley, and someone gave them the stick that they used in that night's performance. I talked to John L., and he said it was basically up to either Ryko or ESD to pick up their newest 12" single on CD."

The Northstar Builders Pre-build pre-construction system is proven, and has garnered us a reputation for accuracy and honesty in the market. We are often asked to provide budget and constructability information for clients and architectural partners for projects that they are planning or currently drawing, whether we are their contractor or not.
We have a variety of elements that we can offer during pre-construction (listed below), but we are careful to remain flexible and to provide pre-construction services that meet the client's needs for specific projects.
- Conceptual budget estimates
- Preliminary and updated construction schedules
- Comparative estimate summaries
- Value analysis and value engineering
- Suggested design alternatives to save time, money, and improve quality
- Cost management
- Analysis of proposed building systems
- Constructability studies
- Sustainability reviews
- Guaranteed maximum price estimate
- Cash flow projections
- Permitting assistance
- Identification and pre-purchasing of items with long delivery times
- Trade prequalification and solicitation
- Purchasing and scope management
Construction Manager
At Northstar Builders Group, we understand working as a team with the owner and architect is paramount. We feel that the earlier our involvement in a project, the better chance we have to be an effective team member. Serving as Construction Manager has proven to be our most successful platform for bringing value to the overall project. Our team approach includes treating other members with respect and is founded on being proactive decision makers while taking into consideration what is best for the project.
Team building begins in the pre-construction phase of the project to establish strong relationships and trust early. We understand that there are multiple stakeholders in each project. We are sensitive to the expectations of the building occupants, the Client's standards, the community (neighbors), the architects/designers, as well as our team's ability to deliver a quality project in an efficient and safe manner.
- Pre-construction Services
- Project Feasibility Studies
- Safety Planning
- Risk Management
- Quality Assurance
- Design and Construction Schedule Development and Control
- Subcontractor and Vendor Management
- Project Accounting
- Project Close-Out, Commissioning and Start-Up
General Contractor
For projects that we feel we can offer value to the client, we will also bid on jobs that have already been designed. In this role, we still approach building the project the same as under a Construction Manager relationship, but the tools to handle changes or unforeseen work are different. We find that this method is most applicable for prototypical or less complicated projects where the probability of unforeseen conditions is limited.
Post -Construction
At Northstar Builders Group our relationship with our clients for many years beyond the project's completion. Completion of a project includes efficient response to any issue discovered during the warranty period, but our relationship isn't limited to warranty periods. Our team stands behind our work and lives up to commitments to our construction partners and clients last far past the warranty period.

HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE (if you celebrate)!
I have been loving coconut rice and shrimp for a long time. In fact, I eat both so often that I should have turned into one or the other by now. But that's how it is with all the food we love, isn't it?
Rice is a staple for a lot of cultures, and shrimp is only a staple if you come from a place that's by the water (am I right? I think so!). Whenever I have rice it's white rice, and whenever I have shrimp it's with something else. I know one benefit of white rice (it tastes good) but brown rice is better for you. Brown rice is high in magnesium (which is good for your heart), it's gluten-free, it has B vitamins, iron, fibre, fatty acids…it's good.
Of course, if you're a vegan, or if you just hate shrimp, you could just cook the rice and serve it with steamed broccoli and tofu or black and white beans. I think I might make it that way next time.
I love making my own spice mixes and seeing where they take me with food (Note: there will be a post on my favourite spices and how I use them later). I went easy on this one, choosing to pick spices which I felt would mix well with the coconut flavouring of this dish.
I really like how this recipe turned out. I think using coconut water and coconut milk and coconut oil really made a difference in this dish. Of course, if you can't find coconut oil, no matter how hard you searched, then just use a good oil that works well in a sautée pan with butter or margarine. I would recommend checking out Well.ca & Silkroadspices.ca in Canada for coconut products and spices, or Nuts.com in the U.S for both. No, this post is not sponsored. I just troll the internet looking for websites which sell the stuff I'm after (all the time). But uh, I wouldn't say no if they offered me free stuff.
Onto the recipe!
2 TBSP Paprika
1 TBSP Dried garlic powder
4 TBSP Dried onion powder
1 TBSP Italian seasoning + more for shrimp
Sea Salt, to taste ( I like 1 TBSP for this recipe for the rice and 1/2 teaspoon for the shrimp)
2 TBSP Black Pepper
Grains, Proteins, & Veg
2 cups of Long Grain Brown Rice
14-16 medium sized shrimps
Liquids & Solids
2 TBSP unsalted butter
1 TBSP olive oil
2 TBSP coconut oil
2 cups Coconut Water
1/2 cup Coconut Milk
1 1/2 cup Vegetable Broth
Items needed
1 Sautee pan
1 medium-sized pot (for the rice)
In your medium-sized pot, add the butter, coconut water, coconut milk, coconut oil, vegetable broth, and the spices ( 1/2 TBSP dried garlic powder, 2 TBSP dried onion powder, 1/2 TBSP Italian seasoning, 1 TBSP Sea Salt, and 1 TBSP Black Pepper) to the measured-out rice. Stir. Let it come to a boil (uncovered), stirring a few times as it cooks. Once it's at a boil, cover, and reduce to the lowest heat, and let it cook for 50-55 minutes. If after 55 minutes the rice is not tender, recover the rice and cook for another 5 to 10 minutes, until it's tender and the water is fully absorbed. Once it's done cooking set it aside.
This won't take long (as shrimp can get rubbery and dried out if it's overcooked). In a sauté pan add 2 TBSP of butter, 1 TBSP of olive oil, 1 TBSP of onion powder, 1/2 TBSP garlic powder, and 1/2 TBSP Italian seasoning to the pan. stir until the pan is fragrant and coated with spices and butter and oil (yum!) about 2 minutes. Throw in your shrimp and sauté for approximately 3 minutes on each side (as that's all the time you need for them to cook through). As soon as they turn pink it's a wrap – they're done!
Distribute and serve!
Please let me know if you try this recipe (as I would love to know what you think)!

MPs given chance to object to government's Commonwealth Games backing
MPs have been given until the 31st October to raise any questions regarding the government's backing of Birmingham's 2022 Commonwealth Games bid.
On Friday, the Commonwealth Games Federation extended the deadline for submitted bids to host the games to November 30th after Birmingham emerged as the only city to bid.
The cost of holding the 2022 Commonwealth Games in the city is expected to be between £600 million and £750 million, although no official figure has been given.
The Government has agreed to fund 75% of the cost. That could mean at least £450 million.
But Culture Secretary Karen Bradley has now invited MPs and members of the House of Lords to tell her whether they object to spending the money.
In a written statement to the House of Commons, she says
Mrs Bradley has also reaffirmed the government's backing of Birmingham's bid.

these are amazing shots – and i love "God's "secret" creations" – makes me wonder how many amazing things we've yet to discover….
Endless Caverns
Recently my summer travels brought me to Shenandoah Valley in Virginia. There at the foot of the Massanutten Mountain range I found and toured Endless Caverns. One of the first questions I asked my guide concerned the reason for the caverns' name. I learned that although five miles of passages have been mapped, much of the complex labyrinth of this underground wonder has yet to be explored. Some of those areas have been declared unsafe due to shifts in the rock tables.
Discovered in 1879 by two boys and a dog when following a rabbit, the cave was wired to provide light for visitors in 1920. Before that time, the caverns were lit by candles. At one point in our tour, when 92 feet below ground, our guide turned off the lights. I have never experienced such depth of ebony darkness. I could not see my hand in front of my face!
Here are a few of the photos I took while on our tour. Notice that the natural color of the cave has been allowed to show, unchanged by colored lights. I appreciated seeing the genuine glory of these unique natural formations. Once more I felt amazed by the beauty of one of God's "secret" creations, deep underground.
This is one of my favorite formations.
There are several caverns in the Shenandoah Valley that are open for public viewing. Several years ago, I visited and enjoyed Luray Caverns. Every cavern experience is unique. In each one the beauty of water dripping through limestone rocks along with mineral staining creates wondrous formations, each a distinctive creation. Viewing them is an experience that should not be missed.

So glad you gave me the excuse to see this natural wonder. It's an experience I will not soon forget! I still can't believe how wonderfully cool it was in the caverns.

The zonal coordinator of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, Ibadan Zone, Dr. Ade Adejumo, Tuesday alleged that the Federal Government was planning to raise tuition of federal universities to a minimum of N350,000.
Adejumo said this while addressing members of the Correspondents Chapel in Ibadan.
He said it was important for ASUU to let the public know that there could be labour crisis in federal universities, adding that the proposal led to the breakdown of the 2017/2018 renegotiation of the 2009 FGN/ASUU agreement.
He said, "The union is again constrained to draw the attention of Nigerian public to an impending labour crisis in the Nigerian universities as a result of the insensitivity of the Nigerian government to issues critical to the survival of the educational system in Nigeria.
"It is no longer news that the renegotiation, which Minister of Education, Mallam Adamu Adamu, promised was going to last for only six weeks, has broken down.

"The union was confronted with a situation where government is bent on imposing tuition fees, beginning from N350,000, on students in the Nigerian public owned tertiary institutions.
"As to how the students will raise such money, we were told that the government will establish Education Bank, where students will access credit facilities and pay back on completion of their studies.
"The union, speaking from the background that education is the right and not privilege of every Nigerian child, made frantic efforts to make pragmatic explanations on the negative implications and the non-feasibility of this scheme to representatives of government to no avail."
Adejumo said that the leader of the government team was bent on the introduction of the high fee, stating that the union would do everything to resist it.

Such a moving tribute. The show is worth is just for that.
Thanks for the review, Brooke. I'm glad you enjoyed the show. I know I certainly did and I wish I could see another one before Bob hangs it up for good. But, none of the upcoming shows are anywhere close to me and right now is not a good time for me to travel to any of these shows.

Have chopped and tamed another wild garden. It is now smooth and ready to receive many bedding plants and shrubs. It is be-fitting a hammock (Which was my main intention) and will become a place of joy and beauty for many years to come.
Sanding down walls is much more tricky than first anticipated. Especially with the discovery that you have to create dust to suceed. All is well in Broombes lane. I believe that the current residents are making good progress and that it won't be long until my best mate moves in down the road permenatly. Look out vineyards and bathrooms everywhere. This spells trouble.

Welcome to the October 2018 edition of Business Travel Quarterly. Since the last issue, we've had the GBTA Global Convention in San Diego, the world's largest business travel event with over 7,000 attendees and nearly 500 exhibitors.
We get a report on the event from the man himself, the COO and Executive Director of the GBTA, Mike McCormick.
American Express GBT has undergone more changes than just its name and ownership structure in recent years. It has also made a number of acquisitions and technology moves. We have a Q&A with Regional Vice President & General Manager, Australia and South Asia, Jo Sully.
My contribution this issue is to give a quick rundown of the several types of audit available to travel managers, and their uses.
Then we do something a little different. Nigel Wardropper, who runs PASA and btTB, regularly remarks how little the basic issues and topics related to travel management have really changed over the past ten or twenty years. So we decided to put it to the test by going back to issues of Business Travel Monthly and having a look at the articles. Nigel is right. Most of the pieces regarding technology are outdated. But most of the others are not. So, we've reprinted one of the best from 2008.

Death Race 2000 (1975)
Overall Rating:
This movie received good marks in all categories. There wasn't quite enough ninjocity to give it a perfect score, but there was quite a bit of gratuitous nudity and the plot line was terrible. All in all, a fairly good bad action movie.
Why We Rented It:
In the year 2000, hit & run has become the national sport. It's a no-hold barred cross-country race, in which the aim is to kill off not only your opponents, but as many pedestrians as possible. David Carradine takes on Sylvester Stallone in this classic adrenaline thriller that will make you look both ways twice before you cross.
Our Synopsis:
If we ever gave out awards for, say, the movie with the worst character names, DR2000 would win the award unanimously. Just to give you a taste, how do Mr. Frankenstein, Machine-Gun Joe and Mr. President sound to you? Ya, that's what I thought.
Alright, on to the basics of the movie, so it turns out that sometime in the future (oh wait, the year 2000!) it's decided to have a transcontinental road-race in which racers drive from the east coast to the west coast and try to hit pedestrians along the way for points. Stop me if I'm going too fast. The story revolves around one racer, the very popular Mr. Frankenstein, whose reasons for wanting to win the race are varied. Of course they've also got to throw something of a love story in there, (because who isn't turned on by running people over?) and naturally, classic Highlander rules^ apply to the ending.
^ = see FAQ #4 for further explanation
- Big Ol' Naked Boobies:
After being shutout in the boobie department for the last little while, redemption finally shows itself in the form of DR2000! Most of them were good old fashioned pointless nudity scenes at that. Early on, when all the cars make their pit-stop for the night, all the racers get massages completely in the nude. And just to prove to everyone that they are in the nude, two female characters decide to get in a fight where their towels fall off. Ooops! However, there were still some scenes in which the nudity had a point. Later on, the main female character decides that she's going to sex-up Mr. Frankenstein every night, so she strips down to the buff and has at him a couple times.
- Profanation:
DR2000 had some pretty good swearing, mostly by Stallone (or should I say Machine-Gun Joe!), but other characters also got in on the fun. There were quite a few combo swears put into play such as bull-sh**, g*d-d**n, and sons-of-bit**es. And, as all of you should know by now, the TBAFS crew loves the combo swears! The profanation score also goes up due to one of the female character being referred to as a "sexpot," and as a result of one of the strangest insults in recorded history. Good ol' MGJ utters the soon-to-be classic remark: "You know
- Ninjocity:
You would think that our rating for ninjocity would be much lower since there was basically only one fight scene in the movie. However, when a movie goes above and beyond the call of making a really bad fight scene, we reward said movie with a higher score. This is the case with DR2000. Not only is the fight absolutely terrible (to the point where I think both actors could pull off the same fight scene at their present ages), but the DR2000 staff goes all out with bad sound effects and music. The punch sound-effects are way off; either the sound would come ½ a second after the punch was thrown or there would be no sound effect for the punch at all. And the music! Oh the music! That's really what threw me the farthest off about the whole scene. It was definitely a bad fight scene with the fighting and the mistimed sound-effects, but when you add the music to that you start to become confused about what exactly it is you are watching. I started looking around my house to find where that strange melody was coming from. I thought for sure that my neighbors just had their bad music turned up too loud again. No people, it's coming from the movie.
- Cannonry:
Cannonry was quite excellent in DR2000. Early in the movie, Machine-Gun Joe fires, what else, a machine-gun into the on-lookers in the grandstand. A racecar blows-up on a landmine, while another racecar is driven off a cliff and explodes. An airplane and two guys try to blow up a car by shooting at it and setting off mines buried in the ground. Another car is blown up with a hand grenade.
- Other Factors:
If you're looking for a short movie to get into the genre, then look no further. For those who do not wish to spend 2+ hrs watching a bad action movie, Death Race 2000 is for you! DR2000 clocks in at an amazing 78 minutes! That's not even an hour and twenty minutes for those keeping track at home.
Also, it's almost compulsory to rent a movie that takes place in the "future" when the year of the "future" is currently a year in the past.
For those who love Howard Cosell and Howard Cosell impersonators, this movie will be great for you! The part of one of the announcers seemed like it was written with only Howard Cosell in mind. It's very painful to watch, and as soon as you recognize that that's what that announcer is doing, it becomes incredibly annoying.
Overall Plot Line:
This plot line is very terrible, and in multiple ways. It's bad in the true bad action movie way, by having a plot that doesn't entirely make sense. But it's also bad in the sense of how horrible the idea of running over people for fun is. This movie can be pretty entertaining as long as you don't try to take it seriously…at all. If you do, you probably won't be watching very much of it.
Of course one of the most interesting aspects of DR2000 is that the reason for the Death Race is never explained. Sure, we now live in the United Provinces of
I have trouble giving DR2000 5 stars for plot line due to the complete lack of character development. I know that some of you must be very confused that a bad action movie loses points due to no character development, but there is a method to the madness. Most bad action movies at least try to get you to empathize with one of the characters at some point in the movie. DR2000 doesn't give any effort at all. I watched the whole movie and didn't like a single character. Why should I? Which character deserves my empathy? Since DR2000 didn't even try to involve their audience, its plot line score must be reduced.
Other items this film contains:
-Characters with really bad names
-Multiple look-alikes of Mr. Frankenstein
-An entire 78 minutes of movie time!
