Interesting speech by Jens Weidmann of Bundesbank. He points how Beatles gave their last performance 5 years ago:
It was on 30 January 1969, to be precise. What I would give to have been strolling down London's Savile Row during my lunch break on what was, like today, a chilly Thursday. Passers-by could hardly believe their ears. Music was blaring from the rooftop of house number 3. But it wasn't just any old music – it was the Beatles, and they were playing live1.
By this point in their career, the Beatles hadn't given a live concert for more than two years, having decided to concentrate on their work in the studio. Recordings for the Fab Four's latest LP, which would later be released under the title Let It Be, were being videotaped, and the highlight of the documentary was to be a live concert at a spectacular location. But the band ended up simply performing a concert on the roof of their headquarters.
What no-one suspected at the time was that it would be the last time the Beatles ever performed live. 50 years ago, then, saw the end of a musical era that we still hold dear today. And that's why the Beatles will pop up at various points during my speech here today.
He discusses outlook for German economy and how it can be improved. Then talks about the monetary union and draws analogies from musical bands:
Not only did the Beatles shape the music of their time in a way that no other group has ever managed, they also showed what makes a good band: it needs to be greater than the sum of its parts. The same is true when musicians come from different musical backgrounds and were previously solo artists.
Which takes us back to the present and to European monetary union. Some 19 countries decided to form a band for the long haul. This band has now been gracing the stage for 20 years, already twice as long as the Beatles. With that in mind, it's more like the Rolling Stones: there is no end in sight.
In order to be forearmed in the long run, euro area countries first need to be proactive by making their economies competitive. Second, they need to keep their finances on a sound footing, as is also set out in the fiscal rules we have all agreed upon.
Going back to our band analogy, this means that every member of the band can and needs to do their bit in order to make the joint project a success – for instance, by regularly practising their instruments, turning up to rehearsals on time and sharing the group's core values.
Nice way to explain.
In the end:
The Beatles' impromptu rooftop concert 50 years ago ended after 42 minutes. In my opinion, speeches shouldn't last longer than rock concerts, so I will now bring this to a close.
Thanks to its University of Popular Music, Mannheim, too, has a special connection to modern music. But anyone who wants to give their ears a rest for the time being will find an interesting alternative on offer at the Kunsthalle Mannheim. Until Sunday, it is hosting an exhibition entitled "Constructing the World: Art and Economy 1919-1939 and 2008-2018".
It's actually two exhibitions in one, and sheds light on the era from 1919 to 1939, during which time the Great Depression raged, and the period following the outbreak of the financial crisis in 2008. It asks exciting questions such as how does art respond to change and crisis, and where there are parallels between the two eras.
Whatever answers await you, I can assure you of one thing: the Bundesbank is working hard to ensure there will be no reason to set up a third section of the exhibition so quickly.
Let's take one last look at that rooftop in London's Savile Row. John Lennon ended the concert with a comment highlighting his trademark ironic humour: "I hope we've passed the audition," he said, before leaving the stage.
I, however, will be staying on stage to answer your questions. I look forward to finding out what you would like to know.
A pretty useful way to connect music and central banking. Or for that matter any policy.

Ghédalia Tazartès, Ben Vida, Rabih Beaini
Official Website + Discogs + Soundcloud
Born in 1947 in Paris, Tazartès has spent over thirty years within musical practice and experimentation, letting his musical work wander from chant to rhythm, from one voice to another. Utilising magnetic tape recorders, he paves the way for the electric and the vocal paths, between the muezzin psalmody and the screaming of a rocker. He traces vague landscapes where the mitre of the white clown, the plumes of the sorcerer, the helmet of a cop and Parisian an hydride collide into polyphonic ceremonies. He recorded alone a dozen of albums, calling his way of working "Impromuz" for lack of a better term. Before the years 2000s, his public appearances remained exceptional events. In 2004, Ghédalia finally decided to do live performances again. He first worked with other musicians (Les Reines d'Angleterre, David Fenech & Jac Berrocal, Norscq & Black Sifichi, Nicolas Lelièvre) and is now a solo performing artist (although his very young son sometimes joins him on stage!).

Ben Vida is a New York–based artist and composer. He has been an active member of the international experimental music community for two decades with a long list of collaborators, bands, and releases to his credit. In the mid 90's he cofounded the group Town and Country and has since worked as a solo artist with releases on such labels as PAN, Alku, Shelter Press, and Kranky.
He has presented works in a range of museums, galleries, and music venues including MoMA, The Kitchen, MCA Chicago, ICA London, Audio Visual Arts, Lisa Cooley Gallery, Leap Gallery Berlin, The Artist's Institute, and the Sydney Opera House.

Lebanese-born producer and DJ Rabih Beaini (formerly known as Morphosis) specializes in grainy, imaginative analogue techno. In the past year however, his Morphine label has telescoped in on key (often overlooked) voices in avant-garde electronic and outernational music.
As Morphosis, Beaini has been crafting away in the nether-regions of the techno underworld since the 90s. Having cut his teeth as a DJ, a move to Italy in 1996 proved the catalyst to start experimenting in the studio.
Beaini's genuine musical ability and a range of influences—from krautrock to new wave—seep into his inventive, dark, and emotional productions and immersive DJ sets. These influences also find their way into Beani's productions with the Upperground Orchestra, a multi-headed improvisational ensemble that explores the terrain between electronica, techno, and improvisational jazz.

CD Review: Across The Dark, by Insomnium (2009)
Insomnium walk a fine line between controlled, deliberately paced but purposeful metal on the one hand, and metal so lacking in energy that it slips into a coma on the other.
Across The Dark does not stray far from Insomnium's home territory: depressed metal that vividly represents the bleakest of grey and cold landscapes. If ever a band was created to reflect its environment, then Insomnium is a creation of northeastern Finland's frozen landscape, with the menacing Russian bear across the border. In Insomnium's world, the journey across the dark is surely happening during the winter day. No wonder the music is moody.
Overall, Across The Dark contains enough focus to remain enjoyable. It starts and ends strongly, with CD closer Weighed Down With Sorrow particularly evocative and among the band's most powerful compositions. There is a flabby middle part to the CD, where The Harrowing Years, Against The Stream and Lay Of The Autumn dip into snoozeland territory. The tracks are not bad -- they just forgot most of their energy in the dressing room.
The music is delivered with polished professionalism, and the Insomnium trademark wall of rumbling sound is always approaching from around every corner, led by the twin Ville guitar work of Friman and Vanni. The tracks often feature tasteful and interesting melodies, but rarely do any of the songs break free and soar. The landscape is just too cold and unforgiving for that.

In a recent Denver Post article, Simple Energy is described as an effective customer engagement platform that leverages the natural human tendency to be social and competitive in order to save energy. "Simple Energy is adopting a social-media, gaming approach with prizes that include iPods and MacBooks for top energy savers… Working with San Diego Electric & Gas Co., Simple Energy launched the 'Biggest Energy Saver' competition."
The electric consumption of the 200 customers who signed up for the pilot program was run through a set of Simple Energy algorithms to standardize it for factors such as the size and age of the houses. Then a 'leader board' was posted weekly, and customers competed by taking steps such as adding insulation and adjusting thermostats. Players were able to communicate through a website and trade experiences.
"It's like 'FarmVille,' where there are a lot of strategies to succeed," founder Justin Segall said, referring to the social-network game with about 62 million active users.
Daily top savers were entered into drawings for $25 gift certificates, monthly top savers could win an iPod 2, and the "Biggest Energy Saver" won a MacBook worth $1,500.
The utility is reviewing the results of the pilot program, which co-founder Yoav Lurie said were "dramatic." Simple Energy has also launched a new game, "Save the Most Energy in Texas."

- Indus Valley, Pakistan
Mohenjo Daro in Sindh, Pakistan and it's northern counterpart Harappa are regarded as the premier examples of the Indus Valley Civilization. Mohenjo Daro indeed gave the civilization it's name on account of being adjacent to the Indus River.
Various theories have been put forward for the demise of Indus Civilization the favourite one at the moment being the drying up of the climate. Whilst that might have been a a factor but I am not entirely convinced of this. My feeling is that whole complex of reasons are behind the demise of Indus. Internal atrophy might have been a siginificant factor. All civilizations eventually decline. Others that were contemperory to Indus also declined like
Nile in Egypt or those on Tigris/Euphrates or Mesopotamia also withered and died died. No single factor can be attributed to fall of those civilizations but gradual decay over time. Can the same have happened to Mohenjo Daro? A slow death of thousand cuts rather than one quick beheading?
Instead of dealing with the wider Indus region I want to just focus on Mohenjo Daro. First because it was premier site of that civilization and second it allows us to focus on the specificity of this site. This reduces the subject area and variables we have to look at in trying to understand what happened. Finally any conclusion we arrive at for Mohenjo Daro might/or might not be applicable to the wider Indus region. Again I reiterate can we focus only the death of Mohenjo Daro.
The first thing that strikes me is how close Mohenjo Daro is to the Indus River today. If we ignore the perimeter of the site and use only one of the excavated points - the distance from River Indus is just over 3,000 feet or slightly less than half a mile. That means Mohenjo Daro is sited right next one of the largest rivers in the world and in many ways similar to Nile in how it flows through sem-arid country giving it life.
So the question that arises is whatever happened 2,500 years ago access to water can't have been a issue as Indus River was and still is adjacent to the site. Indus River has been pretty stable over the last 5,000 years as it is a glacial fed river. There is no reason to believe that it was there, then it made it's escape from Mohenjo Daro and then after taking a hike came back as it is today.
I think we can assume that the alignment has changed over the last 3,000 years like in all rivers. But since it is 3,000 feet from Mohenjo Daro today that tells us any change has been minor and of no drastic consequence. As even today it is only 3,000 feet from Mohenjo Daro.
As comparison further north Harappa in Punjab, Pakistan is about 5 miles from River Ravi today. It is very possible that 3,000 years ago River Ravi was next to Harappa - although frankly even today 5 miles is not a great distance and if it has been moving away rom Harappa over the last 3,000 years it must have been inches per year and Harappans could have easily adjusted to such gradual change.
However going back to the focus of this thread what caused the fall of the mighty Mojenjo Daro? Atrophy or catastrophic event? I go with slow decline like we see in other civilizations. Certainly not water scarcity considering that the mighty Indus was flowing next door.

The settlement of a gamer "influence" case announced today provides a reminder of how tough it can be for consumers to sort out credible online reviews from paid raves.
The Federal Trade Commission says a California-based online entertainment network has agreed to settle charges that it engaged in deceptive advertising by paying "influencers" to post YouTube videos endorsing Microsoft's Xbox One system and several games. Reviewers paid by Machinima Inc. failed to disclose that "they were being paid for their seemingly objective opinions," the FTC said.
Next you'll be telling us radio stations are paid to favor certain songs! Actually, that has happened, of course. But publicity about prominent cases has helped set legal and ethical ground rules there, and this case can perhaps help do so with some 21st century variations of the issue.
While not utterly shocking or unforeseeable, the case may nonetheless prove to have been illuminating for folks used to going online to see what people are saying about games or consoles — but who may or may not have developed a payola-sniffing sense of discernment.
According to the federal agency, Machinima paid endorsers $15,000 and $30,000 for producing YouTube videos that got 250,000 to 730,000 views. Machinima promised to pay a larger group of influencers $1 for every 1,000 video views, up to a total of $25,000 — with no requirement to disclose they were being paid, officials said.
The settlement "requires the company to prominently disclose any material connection between the endorser and the advertiser, and prohibits Machinima from compensating any influencer who has not made the required disclosures," the agency said.
Game over for pay-to-promote deals? Probably not, but the case at least encourages disclosure. And maybe it turns out to be an "influencer" on public awareness.
Update: Machinima submitted a statement.
"Machinima is actively and deeply committed to ensuring transparency with all of its social influencer campaigns. Through collaboration with the FTC, we are pleased to have firmly resolved this matter, related to an incident that occurred in 2013, prior to Machinima's change of management in March 2014. We hope and expect that the agreement we have reached today will set standards and best practices for the entire industry to follow to ensure the best consumer experience possible."

Therme Bucharest. How to get to by car or by bus. Prices
- On 16 March 2018
- In Local Tips Local Tips Bucharest
- Tags: THERME
If you are in Bucharest and are looking for a nice place to relax for a few hours or even a whole day, the perfect spot is Therme.
What is Therme?
Well, as the name points out, it's a huge venue with thermal water.
Here you will find over 10 swimming pools with hot thermal water, exciting water slides and various themed wet and dry saunas. Everythings is inside a huge dome that is decorated with hundreds of exotic flowers and trees.
The reason we strongly recommend Therme is because all the guides and members working at the BTrip Bucharest Free Walking Tour have been here several times and thoroughly enjoyed each moment of the experience.
A day at Therme makes you feel like you go on an exotic holiday somewhere far away from Bucharest.
So, where is Therme?
Because of its enormous surface and the requirement to extract thermal water from the underground.Therme is located outside of Bucharest. Is in the Northen part of the city, 25 km from the city center and around 5 km further North from the Otopeni Airport.
There are two ways you can reach Therme: by car or by bus.
If you take your private car, you can enter the following address on the GPS. Calea Bucuresti 1K, Balotesti, 077015 and drive along the DN1 Soseaua Bucuresti – Ploiesti. If you choose to take a taxi or UBER from the center of Bucharest, the ride will cost around 50 – 70 RON (11 – 15 Euro).
However, there is a way you can get to Therme for free by using the bus. There are free buses provided by Therme which run every day.
The first bus station on the route of the Therme bus is Piata Romana.
The other bus stations in Bucharest are: Piata Victoriei, Arcul de Triumf, Piata Presei, Antena 1, Otopeni. Each bus station being signalled with the Therme logo.
The free bus runs every two hours starting at 9 AM and ending its daily programme at 00:00, at midnight.
You can check the exact schedule of the Therme bus here: https://www.facebook.com/notes/therme-bucuresti/traseele-autobuzului-gratuit-therme/340774736269014/.
For more information about Therme, the cost of entry and what you should take with you, check out their official website: http://therme.ro/en/
Therme has different price packages according to how much time you spend there.
For example, in the morning you can take our free walking tour in Bucharest and discover the city, after which, at noon, you can head for Therme and just chill.
You will definitely enjoy this experience!

If you are graduating from truck driving school next week and your DMV testing appointment looms in the near future, then these tips will help you successfully pass your behind-the-wheel test and get your commercial driver's license.
Tip: Get as Much Behind-the-Wheel Practice as You Can
Just as it takes time and experience to drive a car well, so too does it take experience and time before you can safely drive a commercial truck. Since nothing trumps hands-on experience, you should do as much driving as possible before your test date arrives. If your permit does not allow you to drive on city streets, then set up in an abandoned parking lot and practice all of the driver's test cone patterns you will need to navigate on testing day.
Tip: Proactively Learn to Control Your Pre-Test Anxiety
If you suffer from pre-test anxiety and are worried you will be so nervous on test day that you will screw up something stupid, then proactively learn to control this anxiety by:
- sleeping well the night before your test
- eating a light meal before your test
- limiting your consumption of soft drinks or coffee before your test
- thinking positively about your new career
Also, when you start stressing about the test, make your mind go back to thinking about different aspects of your training. This uses your mental energy in a positive way and will help you with your test.
Tip: Show Confidence in Your Skills and Push Through Small Errors
When you and the DMV's examiner are in the truck, it is important you show an appropriate level of confidence in your driving skills. For example, now is not the time to brag about being the top driver in your class at trucking school, but it is also not the right time to talk about all of the aspects of commercial driving or your truck's mechanics that you don't completely understand.
The best way to handle this is to smile, do your pre-driving inspections, get behind the wheel, put on your seatbelt, and then take a deep breath and drive as your instructors taught you.
Tip: Always be Polite and Courteous to All DMV Staff
In conclusion, it is important to mention you should always try to go out of your way to make an effort to be courteous and polite to everyone you come into contact with at your local Department of Vehicles office. As a commercial driver, you will need their assistance in the future, and you don't want to give them any reason to dislike you. Also, by always being nice to everyone, you become a bright spot in someone's day and prevent accidentally being rude or discourteous to the person who ends up being your driving test examiner!
For more information, contact your local commercial driving license instructor.

The kitchen demo
My wish has finally come true, and my terrible, awful, no-good kitchen was actually, for real, demolished yesterday!!!!
Above you see the old kitchen and then it's remains in the old dining room. The plan is to make these two spaces one with an island separating the dining and working spaces.
This was the initial plan. It has tweaked slightly given some structural discoveries found during the demolition. What I'm learning first hand is that even when plans are in place, sometimes function trumps form, and you need to change the design.
More to come...

Best Birthday wishes for pastor

They receive everyone with open arms and patiently help to find God in all situations of life.

birthday wishes for priest
"Lord, you are the security, the peace, the happiness and the joy." This is how Francis of Assisi once praised God, expressing all the qualities that a person desires to feel in good hands. You too, dear pastor, unite these wonderful qualities of security, peace, happiness and joy in you! We feel good about you and wish you all the best for your birthday! God be with you!
"Go through man, and you will come to God." This advice was given by the church teacher Augustine many hundreds of years ago. You, dear pastor, seem to take him fully to heart. Their humanity and openness inspire us and give us time and again God trust. Go on like that! Our warmest congratulations on your birthday!
You always have an open ear for everyone
and take the worry with humor.
You know, heaven loves you very much
and did not send you without reason.
It is your way and your duty
to help – and you do not suspect
how well your words do us,
which you give us without resting.
But today we come to you
and all are radiant here,
to say "Thank you very much",
the world would be pretty empty without us pastor.
Happy Birthday.
Birthday wishes for pastor
When God created you, he thought,
I'll make you and send you here
to people who need faith
that money and power are wasted quickly.
And that happiness is in yourself.
But only if everyone wakes it up,
then life is easy and cheerful
and everyone passes the joy on.
And when the worries hit you,
then there is your strong back,
to which man can lean,
to you, you god-given man.
Degrees today, on your jubilee day,
God is especially happy and strong
and makes the love shine out of you.
With this band he wants to unite,
what he protects, very quiet and gentle,
You wonderful man he made.
From the heart of all happy birthday
The sun shines brighter today,
because you have your birthday.
The flowers and the birds
are very early your guest.
God send only good things in your life,
He thought it up for you
and I want to give you pleasure,
has always watched over you.
Do you hear the soft word in you?
God speaks here in a gentle voice
and say, "You are my dear child,
I put luck in you quickly,
because today is your birthday,
I think of you, did not miss it. "
The night is sometimes dark,
but in the morning, happiness comes
that is how God created it,
at the beginning, piece by piece.
And today he wants to tell you
what miracle you are,
the greatest of his creation,
so that you never forget
he loves you over everything,
since the beginning of time
and it will never end.
Are you ready for it?

Did you know that the Daffodil is the flower of March? Plant daffodil bulbs in the fall (between September and the end of November) to have plenty of Narcissus flowers in the Spring. Other names for daffodil include narcissus or jonquil. Narcissus is the more botanical, Latin term for the flower. Daffodil bulbs also naturally repel squirrels and other rodents and are a good choice if you have had a problem with small creatures trying to take a bite out of your flower bulbs in the past!
Planting daffodil bulbs:
- In the Fall, choose a spot that is mostly sunny or has only light shade. Also make sure that the location has fairly good drainage and does not tend to get waterlogged.
- Planting daffodil bulbs is fairly simple. Bulbs look much like a small onion, sometimes with a spike or point on one side and sometimes with wiry roots growing out of the other side. Plant with the spike pointing up.
- Follow the rule of thumb when planting bulbs and give the bulbs at least 2 times their height of soil above them. Narcissus like a deep planting in light soil. Dig a 6-7 inch hole, drop the bulb into it and cover with soil.
- Regarding the spacing between bulbs, if planting in beds, leave approx 5-6 inches between each bulb. If you are planting in containers, you can cluster them a little closer together.
- After planting, water well so that the soil above the bulbs settles.
- Daffodil bulbs will flower in the spring. After the flowers die back in late spring or early summer, let the plant enjoy a drier, warmer rest period. After leaves die back, stop watering so that the bulb can rest.
- In cooler zones, you can leave daffodil bulbs in the ground over winter so that they can receive their required period of winter cooling in order to flower the following Spring.

While in the times of old, the term had been adapted from its wooded horse days of ancient Troy to that of semi-modern day protection scheme dreamed of by adolescent boys and adorned in their wallets as a sign of passage. However in today's techno crazy world the term has reverted to that of sneaky malware which invades your computer to tattle on you as well as annoy you with nagging pop up's which you can never seem to kill.
However they have also grown to be somewhat of a tool for state intelligence agency's to spy on the purportedly bad folks out aka 1984 where Big Brother is watching. Yet this might be more a kin to the Minority Report were the idea is to punish now for a future bad. However the ethos of shall I punish you today for a crime you might perform next Tuesdays isn't the purpose of the post as is the political faux paux which Hern Merkel the Chancellor of Germany and seemly the only person in the EU with any money finds herself in today.
As it appears that the German government's "lawful interception" [LI] application, which was supposedly designed only to monitor IP telephone calls, is let us say just a little more powerful than the police originally let on. Of late, the Berlin-based CCC has released its analysis of Germany's "Quellen-TKÜ" (German for "source wiretapping") trojan. As you can guess, the results weren't that pretty and despite a constitutional court ban on the use of malware such as this to crack PCs, the government sanctioned malware makers didn't bother to add any technical barriers to ensure that their mischievous creation would only be used for tapping Internet telephone conversations.
One might say this was even a oops on their part, as on the contrary, the design even included additional functionality which allowed it to clandestinely add more components over the network right from the start. This ability allowed it to make for a bridge-head to further infiltrate the computer past that of just VoIP calls.
So who has used this darling of an app you ask, Well it appears that our brew loving friends in the German state of Bavaria says it has used Quellen-TKÜ. However only legally (of course), its officials insist. However what is more interesting is its reported that Bavaria approached the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in 2007 to learn more about the use of malware techniques in the US. This fact alone points out our friends on the opposite side of the Atlantic aren't the only ones with a Big Brother ego as it seems we (Americans) are doing a dandy job at it too.
As technology increasing "invades" our daily life, it's only natural that the tools used to "watch" this also increase in direct proportion. As time moves on, it's clear the gray line will not change color, only grow in width. Yet if another 9/11 could be prevented (which it may have and we "Joe average citizen" don't know it), would it be worth it…

Who are Create A Gate?
Create a Gate is a family-run business with three generations of experience in manufacturing timber garden products. Operating from our purpose built, automated production facility we supply both the trade and public with high quality self-assembly wooden gates.
Our timber gates are manufactured to the highest quality, adhering to our own stringent quality checks. All our products are made from first grade, pressure treated timber and are impregnated with Tantalith E, which provides protection against fungal decay and insect attack (except our Larch Timber).
We cater to a range of highly valued customers, from one-off landscapers or keen gardeners, to housing developers and commercial builders.
You don't have to be a carpenter or a fitter to build one of our gates.
It's easy. Your wooden Create A Gate comes to you flat packed with everything you need including fixtures and fittings. You can assemble the frame in less than 2 minutes with a superior interlocking 'A' frame design. Simply adjust the gate to your required width and assemble it by fixing the wood sheeting/cladding to the A-Frame. The only tools you need are a hammer, drill, tape and hand-saw. Watch our How To video to find out more.

A recent story in BoingBoing highlighted a Chicago design firm's simple, one page client contract. As someone who writes, reviews, and negotiates a lot of business contracts, I thought it was worth taking a look at the document and seeing if I thought this approach was workable from a legal perspective.
Let's start with this: I think that simplifying standard client contracts and avoiding legalese wherever possible are laudable goals. I'm constantly going through the documents that I'm working on, seeing if there's a way to make something more clear or to resolve any ambiguity. I'd like to give credit to Segura, the design firm, for putting in the work to create a document that's intended to be helpful to both themselves and their clients, and one that reflects their values and goals. This type of effort is genuinely important and worth recognizing.
OK, before we get to the "however…", let's look at the contract itself. Here's the document, from beginning to end:
You give me money, I'll give you creative.
I'll start when the check clears.
Time is money. More time is more money.
I'll listen to you. You listen to me.
You tell me what you want, I'll tell you what you need.
You want me to be on time, I want you to be on time.
What you use is yours, what you don't is mine.
I can't give you stuff I don't own.
I'll try not to be an ass, you should do the same.
If you want something that's been done before, use that.
If you want your way, you have to pay.
If you don't pay, I have final say.
Let's create something great together.
Pretty cool, right? A lot of this is valuable. I'm not going to deconstruct and criticize every word, clause, and sentence. "I'll start when the check clears" – that's good stuff. "I'll listen to you. You listen to me." – that's a principle that I wish more businesspeople would adhere to.
Alright, now it's time for the "However…"
Let's focus on this sentence:
What you use is yours, what you don't is mine.
That's a concept that's common in design firms' client contracts – they often provide the client with a bunch of different concepts, and they reserve the right to re-use those concepts that the client doesn't select. No problem.
Well, not exactly "no problem," because there might be a serious problem down the line for the client.
Here's one scenario: Client X hires Segura to create a logo for their new energy drink. Segura creates a logo, X accepts it, Segura gets paid, X slaps it on their cans and bottles and the product becomes a big success.
A few years later, Big Energy Drink Company (BEDC) comes along and wants to buy X's product for a big pile of cash. X starts planning their early retirement. Meanwhile, BEDC's lawyers start doing "due diligence", combing through X's documents just to make sure everything's taken care of. They come across the contract with Segura and red lights go off.
The issue has to do with the concept of "work for hire." Under the U.S. Copyright Act, if you create something that's subject to copyright protection (like a logo), you own the copyright…even if you've been paid to create it. The only exception is when it's a work for hire. And for something to be a work for hire, there must be specific written language stating that it's a work for hire (in addition to meeting other requirements.)
Need to know more about work for hire? Check out this blog post.
BEDC's lawyer suddenly gets concerned that X may not really own the logo that appears on every bottle, can, ad, social media account, and piece of packaging that X has. Is BEDC going to risk that previously-mentioned "big pile of cash" when one of X's most important assets has questionable ownership? Suddenly X's retirement plans are put on hold while they try to figure out what to do about this.
OK, you say, no problem…Segura is an upstanding company; they'll just sign a new document that has the proper work for hire language and that's that.
But it's been a few years. Maybe Segura is out of business. Maybe their owner is nowhere to be found, or is unable to provide consent. Maybe Segura sold their business, and the new owner sees dollar signs related to a dispute over an incredibly valuable corporate logo they created way back when. Lots of things can happen in a few years.
This isn't some wild, million-to-one nightmare scenario. These are the kinds of issues that my clients deal with on a day-to-day basis. When I'm working on a client's contract, part of my job is to look out for these types of potential problems and come up with a solution that's in black-and-white so nobody has to deal with a nasty legal battle down the road.
Sometimes that means that the short and elegant contract has to give way to a wordier, less user-friendly version…but as long as both parties understand the terms that they're agreeing to, it's usually for the best.
So, whether you're creating a contract or you've been given a document to sign, you definitely should strive for simple, clear language. But the realities of how the legal system works will sometimes necessitate a bit of extra terminology. In the design industry, there may be no such thing as a design that's too elegant or too simple…but the rest of the business world isn't quite there yet.

On Thursday September 27th, 2018 the Nevada Basketball team will be holding its first ever "Proday." Pro-day is an event in which NBA teams are invited to attend practice to evaluate the talent on the Nevada Basketball team for the upcoming season. The NBA scouts in attendance will have the opportunity to get a preview of our team and possibly add some names to their radar before the season even begins. Pro-day is also an opportunity for the scouts to interact with our staff to speak on potential prospects.
The inaugural Nevada basketball Pro-day will be streamed live on the Mountain West Network and the Nevada Wolf Pack Facebook page. The pro-day will also re-air the night of September 27th on Nevada Sports Network (NSN) at a time to be determined.
The Pro-day event will be an hour and a half practice that consists of pressure shooting drills, high energy defensive drills and full court and half court live segments that will showcase the talents and athleticism of our Nevada basketball team.
"We are all excited for the first ever pro-day here at Nevada and we are excited to have over half the NBA teams already confirmed," Coach Eric Musselman said. "I think it is a great opportunity and honor for our players to get a chance to perform in front of NBA personnel and it is a great selling point for our program as a whole. That being said, we are all aware of the fact that this is just one day in a long season and what happens on this day does not mean we can take for granted our goals for the rest of the season."
Be on the lookout for the release our our custom designed pro-day gear for both staff and players

JOHNSON COUNTY, Kan. -- Getting to work could be a hassle beginning Monday morning for Johnson County drivers now that the ramp at a major interchange is closed.
If you live in Olathe or further south and take I-35 North to 435-West, you'll have to find an alternative route until June because road crews shut down the ramp from I-35 North to 435-West late Sunday night so they can reconstruct it. To get around this, drivers heading north on I-35 should go all the way to the 87th Street exit, take a right and then go south on 69-Highway to the 435-West ramp.
KDOT will also close the ramp from I-35 South to I-435 East at 10 p.m., Monday. To get around that, it is recommend that you either get on 69-Highway south from I-35 to get on 435-west or go down to 119th Street, come back north on I-35 and get off on the 435-East ramp.
The project cost $288-million and is the largest road project the Kansas Department of Transportation has ever undertaken, and they are on schedule to finish this three-year project by next summer.
Getting around all the construction may cause delays for many drivers, but once the project is complete, it is expected to ease congestion on one of the state's busiest interchanges.
KDOT says there will be orange detour signs posted to help you get around it.

HOW TO ACHIEVE A PERFECT SET OF BROWS By Elise Firestone
Did you know that your eyebrows shape your face? Having the perfect brows can really make your eyes stand out and enhance your natural facial features. Here are some quick-tips on shaping and maintaining your brows.
Always know where the brow line is. To measure, use a pencil to guide where the arch should be. The front of your brow should align with the bridge of your nose. The arch should be ¾ of the way across the eye, and the tail of your brow should taper off at the end of your eye.
Never over tweeze the hairs. Most people make the mistake of taking off too much hair, and then the hair doesn't want to grow back.
Waxing? Well, just be careful. Again, if you take too much hair off you will regret it. Using a pair of tweezers allows you to control what exact hairs you are pulling.
To fill in your brows use a pencil or a powder. I highly recommend this if you have little hair or perhaps the hair doesn't grow in certain spots.
MEN! Do not shave your brows! The biggest mistake I see is men using a razor blade to cut their brows. No! Find a professional brow person who can shape your brows. Trust me! Having nice full brows is super attractive on a guy.

LG G5 SE Sports A Snapdragon 652 Chipset
Much has been said about the LG G5 SE which received its trademark in South Korea not too long ago, and not only that, it did seem as though the LG G5 SE would be of the same physical dimensions as with that of the regular LG G5 flagship smartphone from the South Korean consumer electronics giant, based on what we have seen in a screenshot of a Quick Cover case. Well, the LG G5 SE is finally released, and it looks as though this is the very same model as the LG G5 that will be marketed in Latin America, as it sports 3GB of RAM and a Snapdragon 652 chipset.
In other words, everything might look similar on the outside, but the major difference can be found when you pry the hood open, with the LG G5 SE being the one that carries the slower chipset between the two, not to mention just 3GB of RAM as opposed to 4GB of RAM on the regular LG G5. As for the rest of the details between these two smartphones, there are more or less the same, including the design. Latin America will not be the only region to pick up this souped down device, as China as well as CIS countries too, would be on the receiving end as well.LG G5 SE Sports A Snapdragon 652 Chipset , original content from Ubergizmo.

Hannah Marshall / Alex Ward / David Birchall / Andrew Cheetham + Al Strachan / Paul Khimasia Morgan / Jules Arthur
Tickets: https://www.wegottickets.com/event/469598
A first-time combo featuring four of the best UK improvisors that have emerged in the last 20 years or so….
Alex Ward is a composer, improviser, and performing musician, working primarily with clarinet and guitar. His involvement in freely improvised music dates back to 1986, when he met the guitarist Derek Bailey. He subsequently took part regularly in Bailey's Company events, and has gone on to become a major figure in British improvised music. His current work includes the avant-rock duo Dead Days Beyond Help, Item 10, and improvising collaborations both regular and ad-hoc with musicians including Steve Noble, Dominic Lash, Kay Grant, Joe Morris and Weasel Walter.
Hannah Marshall is a cellist who is continuing to extract, invent, and exorcize as many sounds and emotional qualities from her instrument as she can. She has been a regular member of Alexander Hawkins' Ensembles and has toured in Europe and South America with Luc Ex and Veryan Weston's ensembles – SOL 6 & 12. She plays with 'String Terrorists' – Barrel (a trio with Violinist Alison Blunt & Violist/poet Ivor kallin). And has been invited by Fred Frith and Suichi Chino in their residencies at café Oto. She also plays with Terry Day, Tim Hodgkinson, Roger Turner, Paul May, Kay Grant, and the London Improvisers Orchestra.
Drummer from Standish, Lancashire based in Manchester since 2004 with a special interest in improvisation. He appeared on numerous releases with free rock group Desmadrados Soldados de Ventura and offshoot duo Yerba Mansa. He plays and tours regularly with Irma Vep and has performed one-off gigs with Rhys Chatham, Damo Suzuki and others. He toured the UK with Nate Wooley (& H Trio) in 2018 and Alan Wilkinson (as a duo) in 2017.
David performs with many Manchester based/related improvisors including Sam Andreae, Andrew Cheetham, Otto Willberg, Greta Buitkute, THF Drenching, Richard Scott, Philip Marks, Adam Fairhall, Luke Poot, London based Colin Webster and Amsterdam native Rogier Smal. One-offs and random stage/studio collaborations have involved working with figures such as Marshall Allen, Rhys Chatham, Mick Beck, Phil Minton and Mark Sanders.
Al Strachan / Paul Khimasia Morgan / Jules Arthur
Al Strachan is a musician with a special interest in brass and electronics. He has recorded with a wide range of artists over the last 20 years, resulting in numerous releases . Along with song-based groups such as Hamilton Yarns and Chop Chop, he plays in a number of electro-acoustic improv outfits, such as Psanck. As an organiser he is a key member of two notable arts collectives: Lost Property and Safehouse.
Paul Khimasia Morgan is an improviser, currently working with acoustic guitar body, objects and electronics. He runs The Slightly Off Kilter Label and Aural Detritus Recordings; imprints releasing new improvised music. He is also a curator of improvised music, live cinema and sound art-related events in St. Leonards and Brighton, UK under the banner aural detritus concert series.
Jules Arthur is a producer and classical pianist, viola player and synth obsessor. His route to composition came through art: trained in sound art and installations at Oxford University, he went on to found the Beatabet Collective, a multidisciplinary coalition of artists, musicians, film-makers and dancers. He also is the co-founder of Brighton's coolest venue – the Rose Hill.

Rome Is The Top European Choice For UK City Break Travellers
Rome is Europe's most popular city break destination according to users of online travel agency www.citybreaks-direct.co.uk
The extensive television coverage of the funeral of Pope John Paul II last year is credited as one reason for Rome's renewed popularity ahead of other city break destinations.
"We have been monitoring the search terms customers use when they visit the site, as well as the actual bookings and Rome is the European city that heads the list." Says Paul Reeve of Citybreaks-Direct.
Billions of TV viewers worldwide watched as over 2 million mourners visited Rome to pay their respects to the late pontiff. The emotional scenes set against the unforgettable backdrop of Rome and Vatican City clearly struck a chord with viewers at home.
Paul explains: "We are aware that different cities are favoured at different times of the year and have taken this into account when assessing the figures. For example, Prague is popular throughout autumn and winter as well as the summer months, whereas, understandably, people prefer to visit cities in Mediterranean countries during the warmer months of the year."
Bookings and searches for Parisian city breaks are also well up on last year. Citybreaks-Direct believe this is partly due to the hype surrounding the film version of 'The Da Vinci Code' which is set in the city. Also, there has been cumulative word-of-mouth interest in the French capital generated by readers of Dan Brown's bestseller since the book was published.
The second book in the series, 'Angels and Daemons' is set in Rome and like 'The Da Vinci Code' prominently features real life settings, such St Peter's Basilica and many churches around Rome and significantly the plot of 'Angels and Daemons' hinges on the death of a fictional pope.
Demand for Roman holidays is higher than for Amsterdam, Dublin and Prague – previously the top choices. Venice was the most popular Italian city for Citybreaks-direct customers in 2005.
This upsurge of interest is welcome news for the Italian capital. Over eight million Euros was spent by the Roman authorities to enable the city to cope with the unexpected extra visitors and concern was raised that the city had been left "in the redâ€Â.
Rome has long been a popular destination for UK travellers. From "The Grand Tourists†in the 18th Century, famously including Lord Byron, through to travellers inspired by the romance in Audrey Hepburn's "Roman Holiday†and "Three Coins In A Fountainâ€Â.
This report is based on an analysis of web searches and bookings for European city flight and hotel deals on http://www.citybreaks-direct.co.uk, an online travel agency.
Citybreaks-Direct is a member of the Co-operative Travel Trading Group.

My daughter started having the same type of bumps on her arms and she did when she was an infant (little white bumps on her face). At first, I was not too alarmed, just kept a close eye on them. Shortly after, I noticed a few bumps on her legs.
As time went on, almost her entire arm was covered. Although she did not complain about them, I was concerned. After talking to several family members, others also had the same bumps. However, no one could tell me what they were or how to get rid of them. Perfect. So, off to researching I went.
After researching, I found she had a skin condition called Keratosis Pilaris (KP), which is a common chronic skin condition that is not dangerous.
Her pediatrician examined her and confirmed she had Keratois Pilaris. Another common name is "chicken skin." I am definitely not a fan of the nickname. The common areas it is located are your arms, legs, and buttocks. Our family members still have it and they are in their 30s, although research indicates the condition goes away after your teens.
So what causes it? Having too much keratin, which is a fibrous protein that makes up the outer layer of your skin. When this happens, the opening to a hair follicle is clogged and the bumps appear. The bumps are either pink, brown, or white and are dead skin cells. You should never try to "pop" or "pick" at them. This only makes the condition worsen. Note: You should consult your doctor to confirm you have keratosis pilaris. If you prefer prescription medications over natural remedies, your doctor can prescribe you medication.
Now that the problem was identified, it was time to find a solution. This part was much more vigorous. Curing keratosis pilaris needs to be done both inside and outside. First, start from the inside by doing a food elimination diet and ensuring you are getting your vitamins and probiotics. Second, use a natural scrub and special formulated lotion, while waiting on the results from the inside. This combination has been known to cure keratosis pilaris.
Food Elimination Diet
There may be more than one food to avoid so you will need to do a food elimination diet. The following are a list of foods that may be triggering your keratosis pilaris: casein (dairy protein), animal proteins, sugar (including honey and fruit), processed food (this stuff should be avoided at all costs!), fried foods, hydrogenated oils, and any artificial ingredient.
The elimination diet should be done for six weeks and you should remove each item one at a time. For example, remove only casein for six weeks. If you still have keratosis pilaris, you know that was not the culprit. On to the next item for six weeks.
Once you do find the source of the problem, if you just can't live without it (I'm a bread person myself!), then have it occasionally. If having the particular food twice a week is too much to keep the condition under control, then try once a week. If that is too much, try every other week. And so on. This way you are not deprived of the food you love, but keep the keratosis pilaris under control.
Whole Food Diet
If you prefer to fast track the solution, you can do a whole food diet. Whole30 is a great plan to get you started! Not only will your skin look amazing, you will feel great too! After six weeks, add one food item at a time back into your diet. When the keratosis pilaris returns, you have found your culprit.
Food Allergy Test
Another option is having a food allergy test performed by your doctor. If the food elimination diets seem too overwhelming, you can have a food allergy test performed. There are two choices for food allergy testing: skin prick test or blood test.
The skin prick test results are immediate, while you have to wait a few days for the blood test results. Personally, the skin prick test did not seem appealing at all, so I chose the blood test. Once you receive your test results, remove the foods you are allergic to from your diet (you should remove them indefinitely!).
Keep track and see if your condition gets better. If not, the food elimination diet will need to be done.
Vitamins and probiotics are essential for your overall health. Talk with your doctor to find out which brand he/she recommends you should take. Always check the labels of your vitamins to know how much of each vitamin you are really getting, as well as, a list of the ingredients. You want natural organic supplements!
Our family uses Garden of Life supplements. This manufacturer makes vitamins for women, men, and children. They can be bought online as well as most grocery stores.
Note: I highly recommend staying away from a store-bought probiotic. You are better off making your own fully cultured kombucha tea at home. You can find great recipes online. Cultures for Health is a great source. If making kombucha tea is not an option, you can go to your local health food store to purchase already made tea. Just check the label because many brands make them!
Natural Scrub
A natural scrub will help remove the keratosis pilaris on your skin. Although there are many products online and at stores, I prefer all natural ingredients. Again, always check the ingredients prior to purchasing. You do not want to put anything on your skin that is not natural. A great homemade recipe can be found at Red and Honey.
If you do not have time or just do not want to make a scrub, Etsy has an array of natural products. This is where I purchase all of my natural skin care needs.
After scrubbing your skin, a natural moisturizer is needed. You need to keep your skin hydrated. There are lotions specially formulated for keratosis pilaris, just like the scrub, both online and at the store. Again, I recommend natural ingredients only. You can find a recipe to make your own lotion at Red and Honey or hop on over to Etsy and purchase an all-natural lotion.
Note: The scrub and lotion I purchase is made to order. This ensures it is fresh and will have a longer shelf life. Be sure to look for this if you choose to order online. And, read the reviews on Etsy! I only purchase from those who have several reviews.
There you have it. Six simple ways to cure your keratosis pilaris for good. If you know of any other remedies, please do share!

Fit4Filter v3.1 from Rexroth now includes an integrated QR code scanner to find the right Rexroth replacement filter elements faster than ever.
Fit4Filter smartphone app v3.1 includes QR code scanner, new search functions
Bosch Rexroth has just released the latest version of its Fit4Filter smartphone app, which allows customers to cross reference and replace their existing hydraulic filter elements with the corresponding Rexroth filters. The app, now at version 3.1, is available for both Apple® and Android™ devices and is an outstanding tool for upgrading filter elements on hydraulic power units in virtually any application—plastic injection molding machines, offshore drilling equipment, machine tools, metal stamping machines, steel making equipment, and more.
Fit4Filter includes cross references to thousands of filter elements, and a unique "sync-on-demand" feature allows users to update the app with new filter elements and other data with just a few finger taps. A highlight feature in the latest update is an integrated QR code scanner, which can be used to scan codes on Rexroth replacement element stickers to quickly and accurately build a list of replacement filter elements. This new scanning feature eliminates part number transcription errors, and the resulting list can then be easily emailed or sent via SMS to Rexroth filter support personnel worldwide for a local price quote. QR-code equipped stickers will be supplied with Rexroth filter elements shipping in the 4th quarter of this year. Users simply apply the sticker in a prominent location on or near the filter element for easy access when replacement is needed. For added convenience, the app now also includes a search feature to determine the correct Rexroth replacement element in any Rexroth filter assembly.
The app also indicates whether the selected Rexroth filter is part of the company's GoTo Focused Delivery Program for North America; and for U.S. users, the app also supplies direct links to specific Rexroth filter elements available on Amazon.com . For users in other countries, the new version offers expanded language support, too, including English, German, French and Portuguese. Additionally, the app also offers the most up-to-date contact information for Rexroth filter support personnel in 29 countries, so that customers worldwide may inquire locally about replacement filters. Connecting with the appropriate Rexroth contact person is easy with built-in e-mail links and one-touch dialing.
"OEMs and equipment owners are constantly on the lookout for mobile apps that will save them time, and the latest version of Fit4Filter includes new capabilities that will make it faster than ever to identify and locate replacement parts right from the job site and the factory floor," said Kerry DeWitt, Product Manager Filtration Systems Sales. "It's a significant upgrade over the previous version."
Fit4Filter 3.1 is the most recent upgrade for users of Rexroth apps. It joins Rexroth's flagship app, GoTo Products, now at version 3.5, in helping customers get streamlined access to Rexroth's Drive & Control technologies. Rexroth's latest versions of iPad® and iPhone® and Android™ Apps for the GoTo program were released in late 2013, with a significant data update in April 2014.
Fit4Filter is available now in the Apple App Store and the Google Play™ Store.

Hearty Breakfast
So many theories on breakfast and what should be eaten and when. My take is that it should hark back to my Grandmothers and be something that "sticks to the ribs". A hearty breakfast that breaks-the-fast of no food throughout the night. I find that if I have a decent breakfast it dampens down my "snacking gene" and sets me up for a day of eating balanced meals.
With my boys a big bowl of wholegrain oats with oat bran either as porridge or muesli (or both, if you're Joe!) gives them sustaining energy and fuels their bodies through until lunch when they are once again "starving" for their next meal. They are also getting a great serving of fibre which is essential for *cough* moving that food through the system.
Getting selective eaters managing a decent breakfast can be a challenge but it makes a big difference to how they are going to feel throughout the day. There are lots of different foods we can offer that provide long lasting energy and they are not all as boring as oats either!
Do you believe in breakfast?

It will not be stunning that forensic science is a well-liked and thrilling discipline proper now. With computers changing into so commonplace and accepted, we seldom have tales like this today – we simply live out that form of science fiction on a daily basis with oppressive company and nationalistic agendas that no one can appear to put a stop to. Society itself has turn into a strong, strongheaded egregore, just like Frankenstein's creation.
Right now when the majority of us are conscious with the advantages of a laptop computer, the know-how has come up with Ultra books that's an addition to the benefits of a laptop computer. Science has adequately, energetically and productively advanced, modified, civilized, enhanced and progressed human life.
Barbara Brennan, former NASA engineer and now world-famend power healer, says that the "human energy subject" has an organizing impact on matter and builds varieties; any adjustments in the materials world are preceded by a change on this discipline. Human life would get transformed into new horizons and heights of prosperity when atomic power is absolutely utilized for peaceful functions.
Horses were painted on cave partitions by prehistoric peoples some 20,000 years ago, They have been featured within the artwork of virtually all the nice empires, such because the Roman, Persian, and Macedonian empires, as well as a lot of history's greatest civilizations, such as the Greek, Assyrian, Etruscan, Chinese language, Indian and Scythian civilizations.
A big contribution of science in our daily life is electrical energy. Second, positive attitude toward a subject makes college students more more likely to engage in lifelong studying both formally and informally. It recounts the life, work and times of the iconic John Tyndall-the first solo climber to summit Monte Rosa, and the primary scientist to measure the greenhouse properties of water vapor and carbon dioxide.

Philharmonic Rise is in a hugely popular area of Liverpool and the 23 properties have kept their external appearance, with the majority of the work being done internally to transform them into high quality, desirable townhouses, with their own private gardens.
The scheme was part of a £50 million investment being made by Marcus Worthington Group and the University of Liverpool in the surrounding area that also includes building student accommodation for 354 students in the Philharmonic Court complex, situated just off Catharine Street.

This young man is amazing. He has a music MySpace -- click HERE for that. The song "the selfish song" is fantastic, as are the others. (He plays all the instruments.)
He has a website that has his art work AND some of his songs. They are incredible. Click HERE for that.
He also has a blog HERE that you can leave a comment on - which I'm going to do right this minute.
[If you don't have the time to give all the songs a listen, just listen to one or two - or parts of some. . . . maybe while you're putting on makeup, going through your mail or whatever. It will be worth your time.]
