Liu Liang San in Tsim Sha Tsui serves up authentic classic Taiwanese food
By YP cadet Kristy Chan
Liu Liang San
3 Ichang Street
Tsim Sha Tsui
Grub: Authentic Taiwanese noodle soup and other classic Taiwanese dishes.
Vibe: Cosy, cheerful and warm, this restaurant is tucked away on a small street. The interior is dimly lit with bar seats facing the chefs, the atmosphere lively with the din and chatter of the staff, and happy patrons.
Who to take: Friends eager to try Taiwanese food. This place is not recommended for large groups, and not for new friends because it can be difficult to make small talk over the noise. It's good for three or four close friends who can eat and slurp noodles without the need to speak.
We tried 7 weird and gimmicky food fads in HK and here are the ones worth your money
What's hot: The beef noodles in tomato soup is one of the restaurant's signature dishes, and it's easy to see why. The freshness of the tomatoes counters the rich beef flavour, and the noodles soak up the tasty soup. You can choose between thick and thin noodles; both are good. The melt-in-your-mouth beef, meanwhile, is rich in flavour and has just the right amount of bite.
Their signature drink – a refreshing melon and lemon tea – had just the right amount of sweetness, although it could have been colder. Service is quick and efficient; all of our food arrived within 10 minutes.
What's not: The dried bean curd appetiser was rather dry and bland; the paltry drizzling of a mystery, rather sour, sauce did nothing to help in that respect. And due to the sweltering summer heat, the hot noodle soups were not as satisfying as they might have been on a cold winter's day.
The restaurant is extremely busy at lunchtime – even though the food arrives so very quickly – and so the only table left for three of us was rather small and uncomfortable to eat at.
Bakehouse is fresh, chic and will surprise you in pleasant ways
Cost: A bowl of braised beef noodles costs HK$68, while a bowl of tomato and beef noodles costs HK$88. The small plate of bean curd costs HK$18, but goes on special for HK$10 at lunchtime. The melon and lemon tea costs HK$23, and only HK$12 at lunch.
At lunch you can get a substantial meal for less than HK$100 that will satisfy your cravings for authentic Taiwanese food.

For the love of Quinoa
March 27, 2016
Gail, our Sandwich clothing rep from Vancouver, makes this great breakfast for us in her showroom every time we see her. She is a very stylish, health conscious woman, I was a little unsure of quinoa for breakfast, but thought I'd give it a try, she looks so good, so it must work! Well, I was converted - I make this at least a couple of days a week, I eat it at breakfast, as a midmorning snack and in the evening.
There are so many benfefits to this supergrain . Here are some health benefits of quinoa that I was able to find.
Quinoa is one of the most protein-rich foods we can eat. It is a complete protein containing all nine essential amino acids, it contains almost twice as much fibre as most other grains which helps to prevent heart disease by reducing high blood pressure and cholestrol. Quinoa contains iron, lysine for tissue gowth and repair, magnesium to relax blood vessels which may prevent migranes, helps in the formation of healthy bones, teeth and energy production. It is high in riboflavin (B2) and has Manganese which is an antioxidant. So if you haven't tried this - you should!
Here is the easy recipe for breakfast Quinoa
Cooled, cooked quinoa - as much as you like. It is very easy to cook 1 part uncooked quinoa to 2 parts water. Bring to boil, cover and let simmer 10 minutes or until the water is absorbed. I make this the night before.
chopped apple - I chop this into smallish, bite size cubes and I leave the skin on, this gives a real nice crunch.
cinnamon - I use a lot of this, but use it to taste.
You can add other fruit into this as well, the apple will be fine for a couple of days, but if adding other fruit (mango, blueberries, etc) add that in when you are ready to eat it.
So, that's it - easy, peasy. I keep mine in the fridge, made up for about 3 days.
Add yogurt on top, I like vanilla, but you can use your favorite and if you're really feeling like you really want to be healthy, mix in a little kefir to your yogurt for some extra punch to your tummy health.

The Manufacturing Careers Internship Program (MCIP) provides youth ages 18-24 an opportunity to explore meaningful and productive careers in manufacturing. Simultaneously, the program addresses the critical shortage of qualified workers in the manufacturing sector. The MCIP has been very successful with a large percentage of the youth currently employed or pursuing post-secondary education. Developed by Business and Career Services in partnership with Medusa Consulting Group; The MCIP is funded by the U.S. Department of Labor and theIllinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO) through the Chicago Cook Workforce Partnership.
It's been nine days since the video of Laquan McDonald was released. Among the millions viewing the shooting are his classmates. CBS 2's Dorothy Tucker takes a look at the killing through the eyes of other teens. Students at Sullivan House High School have not only seen the infamous video of their former classmate, Laquan McDonald, pelted with bullets by a Chicago cop, but they've watched numerous times. One youth says he's seen it "at least 30 times."
Alternative Schools Network would like to thank all the schools that participated in the 2015 ASN Thanksgiving Basketball Tournament! Congratulations to Prologue Early College High School, 2015 ASN Thanksgiving Basketball Tournament Champs!
For some teenagers in Chicago, the Laquan McDonald case is hitting very close to home, stirring up deep emotion and raising lots of questions - about race, and about their city and country.
Despite a growing national economic recovery, a new report by the University of Illinois Chicago Great Cities Institute, Lost: The Crisis Of Jobless And Out Of School Teens and Young Adults In Chicago, Illinois and the U.S., shows that Chicago is one of the nation's leaders in youth joblessness with 88 percent of Chicago's black teens (16-19) and 85 percent Hispanic teens jobless. Nearly 1 of 2 young Black men, 20-24, in Chicago are jobless and out of school – 47%. 44% in Illinois and 32% in the country. In response to these findings, as well as proposed cuts in federal and state employment programs, and the rising death toll as gang battles escalate, a group of youth, legislators, public officials and key agency leaders will tackle the impact of youth joblessness at a public hearing, Solution to the CRISIS: Youth Employment.
Come join the Alternative School Network for an evening of laughter at a Pre-Valentines Day Comedy Show. Three of Chicago's top comedians will be there to bring the laughter and entertainment. This event is a fundraiser for the Alternative School Network to host future events for student benefits. Be sure to stop by the Information table to collect flyers and brochures about The Alternative School Network. Video footage of past events that the schools have participated in will be shown for your enjoyment.

This energy healing series of three works to better the relationships with the people you have around you, society, and most importantly, with yourself.
You are connected to every single person you know. This bond can be thinner or thicker and varies in quality. When working on these energetical connections, not just the relationship itself gets healing. That is because it consists of three parts: you, the other person and your connection, the string between you both. If there is no string - no relationship. Also, when something is connected, it is in resonance. Once your relationship gets healing, all the components get healing too. So you can say that our relationships determine our health, wealth, and happiness.
We recommend listening to the energy healings in the order below. Know, that you can't better the relationship with your parents if you haven't worked on the relationship you have with yourself. Everything you want to change first needs to be changed within.
1. Relationship with Myself
2. Inner Circle: Relationship with your family and close friends
3. Outer Circle: Relationship with the world and society

He is the author of short stories, essays, plays and screenplays. His book Forgotten Settlement With God won the Bulgarian Chudomir Foundation prize.
In 2008 his first novel Autopsy of the Corpse won the annual prize of the Union of Bulgarian Writers.
When the last sluggish bird spread its weary wings and took off from the heated vault of Shah-i-Zinda, Sirin had already forgotten the ominous dream, which had rung out in his head like the cries of a child weeping behind an invisible wall. It was the last day of July in the year 814 by Hegirae*, that same morning when he had opened his eyes and felt lit up on the inside as if he were a cavern ransacked by Barbarians. Even his heart had twitched with a hoarse wheeze for a moment, but the voices of the muezzins were already flying up from the mosques, calling for morning prayer, and he felt at ease, because he felt Allah was protecting him.
The sun was slowly reaching its zenith, but the streets and the squares of Samarkand were still cool. This coolness, coming from the gardens and the vineyards, from the channels crossing the town with their emerald waters, was what the Iranians, the Turks, the Maures, the Arabs, the Armenians, the Greeks and the Jews breathed in, in order to fill with their shrill cries the Sand Place or Registan, as they called the cloth market in the ancient part of town.
The crimson flannel, for which Samarkand was famous, the Chinese silk and the Indian brocades had been unfolded for a while, and Sirin was now enjoying the berries of the famous Sahibi grape, when a noisy throng of fakirs, sword swallowers, fire-blowers, alchemists and magic lamp sellers rushed into the square with gleeful monkeys on their shoulders. The monkeys were no bigger than a man's fist and looked as if they were made of ebony. The motley current of people was kicking up an inconceivable racket and was absorbing in its mass even the Babylonian crowd of merchants with caravans arriving from all known parts of the world. Sirin sprang out of his initial languor and started gathering the cloths closer to himself, following the instructions of his master, the famous medical man Mavlono Nefis. His master had slaves who wove the crimson flannel in warehouses not far from the fortified walls. "Be on your guard," the master had told him, "because those crafty thieves are always looking for ways to charm your eyes. Guard my stock well and you will see, one day I will reward you."
Not much after he was kidnapped from Syria and sold into slavery, when he was barely four years old, Sirin had begun to see in his master the will of Allah. And he thought that Allah was merciful, because he had seen half of the children bought in baskets at the slave caravan abandoned to die at night on the sand, children too weak already to have any value as slaves. And his master Mavlono Nefis appeared to him merciful too, because he seemed to see goodness and obedience in the young man, and he had promised to free him the moment Sirin had bowed and asked permission to get married.
The young Syrian never dared to look over the high walls of the yard beyond which were the women's quarters, as this was punishable by death. But he was always watching covertly the folds in the clothing under which the supple bodies of the women moved with tiny steps, as the holy book ordained, so as to prevent from jingling the jewels spread out like carpets on their invisible heavy breasts. Lust and desire ruled behind the walls of the palace and this worried him in the secrets of his dreams. He knew that at night, behind the high walls of the harem with its green glazed tiles, there were fights between the concubines, the stories of which the eunuchs told on the following day with tired voices. The women hated one another and were in constant war. Most often they would stalk the branded woman in her bath or in bed at night, when a few of the pack would pounce upon the victim at once and tear her hennaed hair, lacerate her lips and flay her shaved pubis until the blood started running.
The name of the woman was Yun Lien and it was a miracle that she came as a concubine in the harem of his master. Only once did Sirin manage to see her eyes: gathered in a stillness before him, while her delicate fingers and wrists twirled in the air in front of his face, writing the words that her lips were warbling in sweet snatches of sound. He stood in front of the hollowed out marble grating, amazed by the mysterious hold women could have over men, without being able to understand it and not daring to take delight in it. Thus, Sirin entered the world of a love which thickened his Syrian blood like a poison.
The Chinese were certainly in the possession of some secret art of love, unimaginable even by gods, because the master took such a strong liking to Yun Lien that she, and only she, began to sweeten his nights. The other women heard the master say more and more often to her: "You are to me like my mother's back." And these words brought deathly paleness over their faces, because that meant the door to the man's bedroom was forever closed to them.
Thus Yun Lien, whose destiny had made her a concubine, found herself in the middle of a violent storm. In addition to the bath fights at night, which took place in blank silence, torn only by the piercing screams of the parrots, twice they tried to poison her by sprinkling the melons she ate at lunch with juice from plant leaves known only to women. Her young body quivered with terrible cramps, while a mucous green liquid trickled from her mouth. The other concubines hoped it was her corrupt soul. But Allah evidently watched over the woman, and the master of Sirin decided to free her and allow her to marry his slave, because she was beginning to cause a terrifying rebellion in the harem. Sirin was already feeling grateful for his luck, when he lifted his head and met the eyes of Death.
She was walking around the market in Samarkand with a despondent look, obviously bored with the noise and the crowd. The sword swallowers did not impress her, and when one of the miniature monkeys tried to touch her red turban, Death squeamishly drew back. At that moment she turned her eyes and met those of the wretched Sirin. Without a word, she wagged her finger at him, and then vanished among the dancing fire-blowers. Sirin suddenly remembered the cries of the child, which reached out of his dream, and he was filled with the feeling of impending doom. The firm hand of despair grabbed at his throat, but he couldn't even cry, convinced that fate had given up on him.
At the same moment, through the big gate of Shir-Dor, the beautiful building with the lions, as they called the religious school in Samarkand, there appeared Mevlono Nefis. The master slowly climbed down the twelve stairs and walked across the market. His stately figure cut through the crowd of the market like a ship sailing through water. When he came closer to his slave, he looked at his face crumpled with misery, and asked if Allah had embittered his poor servant's days.
"I saw Death, master," Sirin cried fervently. He fell on his knees by the ornate robe of Mevlono Nefis.
"Get up, boy!" the master tried to raise him by the shoulders. "Every day we see Death and we feel neither better, nor worse for it. She only reminds us that we owe to Life."
"No, master, it was not like that," Sirin cried out. "She stopped and wagged her finger at me. After that she turned and disappeared."
Mevlono Nefis examined carefully the dark eyes of his slave. He could read there the hopelessness of a failing mind. Then he lifted his head to the sun, which had already reached its zenith, and sighed:
"What can I do for you, boy?"
"Give me a horse, master," Sirin suddenly warmed up, "and I'll run away, I'll go to Mossul."
"Mossul is far..." Mevlono Nefis replied, while watching the rills of sweat furrowing the dark skin of the young Syrian. Then he felt sorrow in his heart and lifting the rosary in his other hand, he blessed the poor slave and said: "Go, and may you find the road which is calling you..."
Sirin ran to the stable of his master and saddled the best horse. He gave a sad look to the walls that separated the women's quarters from the rest of the house and thought of Yun Lien, her yellow skin and promised caresses. "I will come back," Sirin swore to himself, because he was sure Yun Lien's caresses would keep him forever on this side of the ridge of life. Today he only had to run away from Death. And he started to gallop down the hill to Mossul with all his might.
The horse's hoofs were throwing sparks on the cobblestone road of Samarkand and their clinking sound disturbed the age-long dream of the mausoleums, the cool stone chambers of victorious death. And when Sirin came close to the last gate, the people preparing for the noon prayer scuttered away under the porch of the mosque, scared by the hurrying rider. He galloped by the vineyards, the gardens and the channels around the blessed town, and soon he could see in front of him only the deserted, white road to Mossul.
Sirin was riding and thinking of Yun Lien. He knew, he was sure that Mevlono Nefis would grant him his slave and that the woman would illumine his days with those caresses that destine a man to strength and taste for life. He imagined her gentle breasts, formed with a sculptor's hand on her young olive skin, and he could hear her voice in his ears, her short words flying off like the sounds of a small brass bell. He thought of his future family, of which he dreamed in his lonely nights, the two sons he would have, strong and hard like stone, with dark skin and ardent eyes. His family would be like that, like the family he vaguely remembered from his childhood, before the slave merchants took him away.
The mane of the horse curled with the wind and its heart beat in time with Sirin's heart. He never stopped to rest in the fig forests, which every now and then appeared on the side of the road. It was near dusk, the wonderful Arabian horse was starting to gasp and the curb-bit was rattling fiercely between its large teeth. Sirin's eyes were burning from the salt of his sweat, and perhaps from the tears he shed for Yun Lien, but he wouldn't close them even for a moment, waiting to see the towers of Mossul in the distance.
In the meantime, in front of the stairway of the Shir-Dor school, Mevlono Nefis stood face to face with Death, who was still walking around the market with a bored expression, and he asked her:
"What have you done to my slave? Why did you scare him so much that he had to beg me for a horse and try to flee as far away as Mossul?"
Death, who was unconcernedly observing the copper towers of the mausoleums, grown blue with the humidity of the air, replied without turning her eyes:
"I didn't do anything to him, I just reminded him of our meeting tonight in Mossul..."
*Hegirae, "migration" – the night before 26 July 622 AD is the beginning of the Islamic calendar.
The Elizabeth Kostova Foundation and Vagabond, Bulgaria's English Monthly, cooperate in order to enrich the English language with translations of contemporary Bulgarian writers. Through 2009 we will give you the chance to read the work of a dozen young and sometimes not-so-young Bulgarian writers that the EKF considers original, refreshing and valuable. Some of them will be translated in English for the first time. The EKF has decided to make the selection of authors' work and to ensure they get first-class English translation, and we atVagabond are only too happy to get them published in a quality magazine.

Modern Management's Role in the Demise of Sustainable Society (pages 20-31)

This paper examines the development of modern strategic management and portrays it as a major problem‐causer in modern society, rather than a problem‐solver. Frederick Taylor's philosophy and practice of scientific management is alive and well, and stronger than ever, in the final decade of the 20th century. Although scientific management is a vital underpinning to strategic development in a highly competitive, productivity‐conscious, organizational world, its intense, single‐minded and tunnelvisioned application raises the paradox of it being at one and the same time, "saint and sinner". Its "saint" role is that of an economic productivity enhancing, competitive capability bestower. Its "sinner" role arises because of the adverse, and potentially dangerous impact it has on rank and file personnels'commitment to, or acceptance of, the way things are in organizations and society. The paper is intended to give an airing to significant problems which are emerging in a practical and theoretical managerial world which seems otherwise to be blindly, and extremely, embracing scientific management as the rightfully dominant paradigm for modern day management strategy. It suggests tha nature of changes which might need to be made to mainstream management paradigms. The challenge is to create a society based, at least in part, on cultural values of opposite dimensions to those which underpin scientific management.

By Cpl. Giovanni Lobello
| | May 19, 2005
A group of station personnel eat lunch during the station's annual civilian employee picnic at Ramada Field May 13. Attendees enjoyed a catered lunch from the Sonoran Pueblo consolidated club. Additionally 35 random civilian employees also received gift certificates ranging in value from $25 to $150, to businesses out in town including Best Buy, Applebee's and Sears

MARINE CORPS AIR STATION YUMA, Ariz --
The station held its annual civilian employee picnic May 12 from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Ramada Field.
The picnic is held to thank all the civilian employees who help keep the air station functioning.
Civilian employees are the continuity and stability of the base, explained Col. James J. Cooney, station commanding officer, during a speech at the picnic.
"Marines come and do their thing but you guys stay here and keep the station running," said the Weymouth, Mass., native.
A buffet-style lunch was available for those who attended. The buffet, provided by the Sonoran Pueblo consolidated club, included chicken, pork, beans, coleslaw and other side dishes and desserts.
"They did an excellent job of catering the food," said Mike Batson, training chief, Marine Corps Air Station Yuma Fire Department. "The five dollar fee is nothing compared to the meal we received and the opportunity to be around friends. I would have liked to see a couple of more activities for children. That way we would be encouraged to bring our families along."
The club did an outstanding job with the food, said Jan Lawson, range management department archaeologist.
"Previous years we hadn't catered. We just did a pot luck, where everybody brings a dish," said Fely McVey, Installation and Logistics, engineering project coordinator. "This year we decided to cater the event, so that way the money goes back into the system. The catering seemed to work out better; everyone enjoyed the food and they didn't have to worry about what to bring."
In addition to lunch, attendees played horseshoes and tested their golfing skills. There were prizes for both male and female contestants who could hit a golf ball inside a barrel from 15 yards away and for winning in horseshoes.
At the end of the picnic, Cooney gave 35 randomly selected employees. The certificates ranged in value from $25 to $150, for redemption at businesses out in town including Best Buy, Applebee's and Sears.
"I liked the casual atmosphere with a lot of hard-working people getting to know each other," said Lawson. "It's a good opportunity to be with all these people and be a part of a bigger group. This is something that I will definitely continue to attend as the years go by."
Cooney also rewarded the civilian employees who attended by giving them the rest of the day off, said McVey.

The Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) has launched a tender seeking environmental surveying services required for the development of a floating offshore wind turbine at the Atlantic Marine Energy Test Site (AMETS).
SEAI is inviting proposals from individuals or organizations for the provision of marine ecology services at AMETS for the purposes of the installation and operation of the floating wind turbine.
The tender is divided into three lots, including ornithology, marine mammals and benthos.
The review should identify gaps between the existing baseline data and that required to facilitate deployment of the floating wind turbine.
Interested parties are free to submit applications until 26 August by 12:00 local time. The duration of the contract is 27 months, with no options for renewal.
This March, a consortium led by the European Marine Energy Centre (EMEC) secured funding to test Saipem's floating wind technology at SEAI's AMETS site offshore Ireland's west coast.
The EUR 31 million Accelerating Market Uptake of Floating Offshore Wind Technology (AFLOWT) project is expected to demonstrate the survivability and cost-competitiveness of floating offshore wind. Deployment is planned for 2022.

2020 Vault Rankings
About Vorys, Sater, Seymour and Pease LLP
Vorys was established in 1909 and has grown from a four-person office to become one of the largest Ohio-based law firms with nearly 375 attorneys in seven offices across Ohio, Washington, D.C., Texas, and Pennsylvania. Vorys currently ranks as one of the 200 largest law firms in the United States according to American Lawyer magazine. Representing from some of the world's largest companies to individuals and small businesses, Vorys virtually represents every industry: insurance, food service, construction, engineering, pharmaceutical, automotive, banking, manufacturing, higher education and many more. In addition, a significant portion of the firm's work is on behalf of federal, state and local governments.
Vorys To The Rescue
Vorys helps clients in all sorts of work, from counseling clients on corporate governance issues, working to structure and finance corporate transactions, negotiating real estate acquisitions and franchising arrangements, developing and implementing labor and employment law policies and practices, complying with health care regulatory requirements, and even identifying and avoiding potential environmental problems. The firm focuses on recognizing emerging legal issues and developing approaches that allow clients to conduct their businesses and activities in ways that minimize the risk of future liability.
A Nationwide Firm
Vorys's lawyers have tried matters in federal and state courts across the country and have argued cases before the United States Supreme Court. Whether the cases involve toxic tort issues, claims of employment discrimination, allegations of criminal activity, asserted violations of the securities laws, claimed violations of state insurance laws, or large-scale computer data breaches, Vorys's attorneys have tried some of the most complex and challenging legal issues found in courtrooms today.
Vorys was one of 42 law firms nationwide to be named a "Cross-Practice Powerhouse Law Firm" in the 2008 BTI Consulting Group's Power Rankings survey of the general counsel, in-house counsel, CEOs, and CFOs of the Fortune 1000 companies. In addition, the firm was identified by 23 Fortune 500 companies as a Go-To Law Firm in six practice areas: contracts litigation, intellectual property litigation, labor and employment law, labor litigation, patent prosecution and torts litigation.
Instead of focusing on burgeoning success, the attorneys at Vorys rather believe that by taking care of their "clients, communities, and each other," the firm will be taken care of itself and it goes to show that it has. For 14 years, Vorys had more lawyers listed in The Best Lawyers in America than any other law firm in Ohio, with 111 lawyers on The Best Lawyers in America List, and 36 attorneys recognized as "Leading Lawyers" by Chambers USA.

Go wifi and get a mms app. Uses Sprint phones. Also, there's that new Red Pocket $10 a month plan for 500 minutes/500 texts and I think 50 megs of data. Also for Sprint devices. Not free but possible options. 100,000 is a lot of users looking for a place to go.

Release of MCOP source code for MCPTT apps and SDK
The first versions of the Mission Critical Push to Talk (MCPTT) Open Source software development kit (SDK) and sample MCPTT app have been released by the Mission Critical Open Platform (MCOP) project, during the second ETSI MCPTT Plugtests last week in Texas.
The entire source code is available to download from the MCOP repository at https://demo.mcopenplatform.org.
The MCOP SDK and sample MCPTT app facilitate the development of mission-critical services by handling most of the complexity of MCPTT application development.
The SDK implements all the protocols and signalling specified in 3GPP Release 13/14 MCPTT standards while providing neat APIs for both APP developers and UE vendors, the so-called MCOP Unified Open API- MUOAPI, and Integration API, publicly available at www.mcopenplatform.org/mcop_resources.
The MCOP project is designed to remove the entry barriers of multiple technologies and proprietary platforms. It ensures interoperability and provides a catalyst for more players to enter the MCPTT market by making the business case more attractive.
All MCOP components are fully compliant with 3GPP standards.
Released with the MCOP SDK, the sample MCPTT app serves as a simple proof of concept of what can be achieved in a few lines of code using the MCOP SDK.
Both the app and the SDK can be remotely tested in a full 3GPP MCPTT system using the MCOP Testing platform at https://demo.mcopenplatform.org.
Additionally, a SIM-authentication emulation plug-in following the MCOP architecture is provided for those developers that have no access to an MCOP Integration API supporting device.
"We are really excited to release this version of the MCOP SDK to the community," said Fidel Liberal, MCOP project coordinator.
"It will allow us to validate MCOP architecture and check it is proven to be useful for different stakeholders including user equipment vendors, apps and SDK developers, researchers and new mission-critical communications practitioners."
The MCOP project, funded by the US Department of Commerce's National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), aims to meet the challenges of the emerging and complex MCPTT ecosystem.
The project, set to complete by mid-2019, will define, develop and validate an MCPTT client open platform that identifies neat open interfaces between the different technologies and reduce the integration efforts as well as a live and an online testbed for the applications.
MCOP is led by the University of the Basque Country with partners Bittium, Expway and TCCA, supported by Nemergent.

Along with the
confusing mess of a pre-order scheme ability to pre order the game from Rockstar's lovely store, they also released a few screenshots of the PC version of RDR 2. You know, that game from last year?
On PC it's said to have prettier graphics, which is impossible because the console version is already the best looking game ever.

Lt. Brian Redman said vehicles traveling north on Highway 51 had slowed or stopped for a crane walking across the roadway. The motorcyclist was unable to stop in time and rear-ended a vehicle driven by a 55-year-old Madison man. The driver of the vehicle and his son, who was a passenger, were uninjured.
The State Patrol Traffic Reconstruction Team assisted in investigating the crash, which closed the portion of the Highway 51 north for two hours.

Intact Insurance maintains support for Broker Identity Program | Insurance Business
The Insurance Brokers Association of Canada (IBAC) has announced that Intact Insurance has maintained support of the association's Broker Identity Program (BIP) at the full partner level.
As a full partner, Intact will support IBAC's BIP – a national advertising campaign aimed at spreading the word about the "significant value" insurance brokers provide for their clients. Like other full partners of the program, Intact will contribute to IBAC's initiatives, such as the association's technology leadership and professional development of the broker workforce.
In addition, Intact will support IBAC's federal advocacy to maintain the separation and distinction between banking and insurance.
"We are very pleased to continue our support of the Broker Identity Program (BIP) at the full partner level. We work with more than 2,000 brokers across Canada and supporting them is fundamental to growing our business," said Intact Financial president of Canadian operations Louis Gagnon. "We're in a time of unprecedented change in our industry, but insurance is and always will be a people business and brokers are at the core of this."
"Intact's continued partnership with IBAC clearly demonstrates their strong commitment to the broker channel, and recognizes the important role that brokers play in serving and advocating for insurance consumers," added IBAC CEO Peter Braid in a statement. "We greatly appreciate their vote of confidence and their ongoing support."
Intact's renewal of support for the BIP follows the announcement of Wawanesa's induction as a full partner of the program.
