Through boom and bust, BK has continued to help keep us profitable and they are a great source of positive encouragement. Nothing is too much trouble. I would recommend BK without hesitation to anyone in business or thinking of starting a business – BK is a firm of accountants who are professional, knowledgeable, experienced and who will go the extra mile.
The partnership with Seamus [Buckley Kiely & Co.], who was referred to me by my bank, began back in 1996 when I initially formed PCH International.
In the early years Buckley Kiely fulfilled the role of managing the setup and administration of the company, enabling me to focus on business development and the relationship grew on a needs basis from there. Although PCH is now a multi-national organisation we continue to maintain close involvement with Buckley Kiely and use their extensive experience and expertise. Their advice is invaluable as it is based on years of co-operation, integrity and success.

The longevity of the relationship is testament to their quality of service and the relationship we have built with them.

Buckley Kiely was recommended to us [Entercoms – An Analytics and Operations Company Powering Aftermarket and Service Supply Chains] by the IDA when we were in discussions about locating to Ireland.
From our initial contact we have built up a really good working relationship with various members of the team. They have provided us with exceptional tax advice, at pivotal times in the development of the company and we have also benefited greatly from their expertise in areas of accounting, bookkeeping & payroll. They are proactive in putting forward constructive suggestions and the impression is that they are genuinely looking out for our best interests. I'm very happy to give them my recommendation – companies considering locating to Ireland couldn't ask for a better partner!

I am very pleased with the levels of service and attention provided by Buckley Kiely to the financial affairs of Paciv Europe.
In particular, I have been impressed by the recent handling of our tax return, the various options presented and the clarification provided in meetings to the financial management team, both in Cork and in the US. Better yet, Buckley Kiely has provided us with a clear understanding of tax implications/laws in Ireland, which will be of significant benefit to us when making decisions in the future. Based on our experience, I am delighted to recommend Buckley Kiely & Co.

Buckley Kiely & Co was recommended to me by an early investor and supporter of Trustev, as an accounting company that while being large enough to support our needs as we grow, would go the extra mile to assist us in the start-up phase.
Buckley Kiely has been an invaluable partner to us at every stage of the development of our business; providing us with serviced offices (in the early days), outsourced bookkeeping and payroll, accounts compliancy, taxation and investor advice second to none. The team is made up of real experts in their fields, which has given us great confidence and comfort that our affairs are well looked after, and has freed us up to focus on developing our technology and promoting the Trustev brand and business. I recommend Buckley Kiely to every IT start-up I know!
Buckley Kiely helped me to transition from working for a larger company to start up my own business which is growing steadily thanks to support from Team BK.
They take care of all aspects of my business and personal affairs ranging from; Accountancy, Tax, Pension Management through to Specialist Corporate advice. A true "One Stop Shop" provided by a Very Professional, Honest & Dedicated team. I would not hesitate to recommend them to prospective clients.

Buckley Kiely undertook a grant audit assignment relating to a major TV series project for RTE Cork.
The level of preparation and attention to detail on this assignment was exemplary. The professional and efficient service supported a successful conclusion to the project. The assistance of Buckley Kiely meant that the project was brought in within budget and this service was much appreciated in the current climate.

I first got to know Buckley Kiely while working for Trustev. Their coffee machine was the first thing to get my attention, but all joking aside I saw first-hand how having the right advice on a wide range of financial matters could seriously make the difference to the success of any startup. BK advised at every stage of financing for Trustev which ultimately led to one of the largest ever company acquisitions in Ireland. No matter where my path took me after that, I wanted to be sure to stay in contact with Buckley Kiely.
After about 8 months of meeting Fearghal [Collins, Partner at Buckley Kiely] for coffee to bend his ear with my ideas and having received tremendous support and advice from the team at BK, we were finally ready to go – along with business partner Dave Ronayne, chief executive of Irish Mainport Holdings and IBEC's regional president for Cork, we launched Republic of Work in 2016. Buckley Kiely has been of tremendous support to us during our first year of business – I couldn't imagine doing it without them.
If I were to start all over again, I would not hesitate for a second in engaging Buckley Kiely for another 40 years of service!
From a one-man-band to a fully-fletched orchestra – for almost 40 years, we have engaged Buckley Kiely & Co. as our accountant and business advisor. During that time, they have grown from strength to strength and have never backed away from any task given to them. They have always implemented the latest technology and employed top class human resources. In so doing, today they can deliver a full package of services required by any company and their employees.

When my mother fell ill and I was appointed as Power of Attorney over her finances, I needed an independent adviser to help decide where to invest her money to ensure that there is always sufficient finance to pay for her care.
I met Richard Fowler of Buckley Kiely Wealth Management who gave me great advice on the best options. This was invaluable to me as it gave me peace of mind, in particular, given the uncertainties with the Euro and the banks. Many advisers out there are not independent, whereas Richard provided independent fee- based advice on what was in my mother's best interests. The service provided by Richard and his staff is excellent, very efficient and professional. I have no hesitation in recommending this service to anyone looking for professional, independent advice.

Movies @ Dundrum Ltd appointed Buckley Kiely to carry out an internal review of the efficiency of its Accounts Department in 2011.
Their work was carried out in a very professional and time efficient manner while at all times remaining sensitive to the potential concerns that such a review will raise for the personnel working in that department. The final report delivered by Buckley Kiely provided the Board with a number of key system and process improvement recommendations and a capacity and cost benchmarking assessment which have been the foundation for a restructuring of the department into a more cost and process efficient cost centre. The Board of Movies @ are grateful to Buckley Kiely and would highly recommend them.

I was delighted with the analysis completed on my pension. It gave me the opportunity to make positive decisions in my life.
It opened up many possibilities that I never knew I had, in fact, possibilities I thought I didn't have or would ever have. It's certainly worth having a consultation with Richard and Paul as they make things easy to understand. It has definitely changed my life for the better.

The idea behind BuiltInCork was to bring together Cork based people and companies who were all working towards the same goal of making a success of their business and provide them and each other with advice, ideas and support to help them achieve it.
Buckley Kiely was my first choice as accountant for BuiltInCork and they also provide financial support and advise to many of the startup members of the group.
In my second year of running my own pharmacy in Mitchelstown, I made the decision to move accountants to Buckley Kiely – one that I've never regretted.
I can say unreservedly that my experience has been a very good one.
Buckley Kiely are very professional while at the same time being very friendly and approachable. They have an excellent understanding of the pharmacy sector and have been instrumental over the years in helping to redevelop and modernise our business when required. Most recently they played a proactive role in the sale of the business, providing tax planning advice, dealing with due diligence and solicitors. The firm also provides sound, long-term financial advice. Buckley Kiely and I share our 40th anniversary as Seamus set up the business the same year that I qualified as a pharmacist, back in 1977 – I'd like to congratulate them on 40 years of excellent service.
Buckley Kiely have set up very detailed, customised Excel Reports for us, which has enabled us to evaluate profit margin by department.
This [Automated Business Reporting] has completely transformed our monthly financial reporting, making it fast, reliable and so much easier.
Having helped us to identify the information required to demonstrate how our business was performing, Buckley Kiely then set up Excel reports, linked to Sage, to display that information at the click of a button.
This has hugely reduced the time we spent creating reports each month and the information is now more reliable, accurate and comparable!

hello miss pavlova
I had a very lovely weekend that included a lot of laughing and going out with the girls, getting a coffee color
for my hair, buying shoes and trying hats, also testing some summer fragrances (that yellow hypnose senses from Lancome is to die for :)); in addition, I have received some handmade soap for test, thank you miss T, i'm already addicted to the massage bar you made ;)
As I had a bit of time today, I cooked this lovely sort-of-Pavlova cake (sort of because I added up some milk topping as I'm not such a fan of the mixed liquid cream) , it was so sweet and creamy as a smooth kiss early in the morning. (bear in mind i hate waking up early but worth giving a try :)) ; the cake went perfectly with a rose wine I found in the fridge - thank you whoever gave it to me, it was very good.
Imho Rose is the perfect match for summer, please don't tell this to my doctor.
awww meet my latest music obsession :)

As a business and person who lives in Seattle, Washington I am very blessed to be able to attend Emerald City Comic Con over the years. This year I find myself trying to balance my schedule to allow me to attend ECCC 2015 as a vendor and as a fan. Though at times if feels impossible I think I can achieve it. I have to note that I didn't feel this way last year or even this year at Rose City Comic Con in Oregon. However having seen all of the celebrities including the newest addition I need to make it work.
As ECCC grows they tend to bring in more celebrities every year this year they have a notable, let's say cast. I will organize the list starting with least excited and up.
- Clare Kramer
- Janet Varney
- Rachel Skarsten
- Grant Imahara
- Charisma Carpenter
- Brandon Routh
- Emmanuelle Vaugier
- Tyler Hoechlin
- Morena Baccarin
- Gina Torres
- Patrick Warburton
- Julie Benz
- Stan Lee
- Levar Burton
- John Barrowman
……and the man Clark Gregg
I would go into detail why I ranked the celebs as I did but this post is for CLARK GREGG……WOOT WOOT!!! (can you tell we are excited over here?). However I will say that we are most excited for Gina Torres thru Clark Gregg.
If you are reading this post it most likely means that you are a geek or nerd. So you already know that Clark Gregg is Phil Coulson and I don't have to go into the whole ordeal of what happened to Coulson in his course of being a Shield Agent. You know he was awesome, awesome, awesome…..he died (in an awesome way)….then he came back in an awesome way. Did I mention that he is AWESOME?
We are very excited that our home state gets to host him for 3 days in March for Comic con. Though here at GEEK4GEEK we will have to finagle our schedule so that everyone who wants to meet him will be able to, since it is guaranteed there will be no down time for that AWESOME man!

Of course, Furia figured it wouldn't work as much since his target was a female. But, in an effort to stun her, he raised his leg up and back, the heel slamming between her legs.
She held up two fingers the index and the middle. "Carriage of Thunder. Bridge of a spinning wheel. Ye lord! Mask of blood and flesh, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! On the wall of blue flame, inscribe a twin lotus. In the abyss of conflagration, wait at the far heavens. With light, divide this into six!" The golden glow spread around her. "Bakudo number 61, Rikujōkōrō!" She pointed her finger at Furia and six rods of light immediately bound his midsection in a ring like formation. "Hado number 63, Sōren Sōkatsui!" She placed her hands so that they were overlapping each other and fired a massive blast of blue reishi at her opponent.
Furia's eyes narrowed in irritation. Then, he shut them, and waited for the opportunity to rise.
Then, he unleashed a barrage of outward spiritual energy from his body, so violent that the bonds on his body shattered into fragments of reiatsu glass. With another Sonido, he was able to evade the offensive attack once more, re-appearing a safde distance away.

Menchie's is coming to Aventura. Another yogurt spot added to the list, what's your favorite yogurt and toppings combination?
Cupcakes and Yogurt – Two Trending Treats
By Shari Lynn Rothstein-Kramer
So much for the diet, right? When it comes to tantalizing those taste buds after you're done with the salads and sugar free muffins, move on to the good stuff – cupcakes and serve-yourself frozen yogurt. When it comes to this year's "go-to" taste sensations, the sweets have it and they are popping up all over Aventura and the surrounding areas.
The craze actually began a few years ago and has been growing steadily since. It started in NYC, and like most other outstanding trends eventually will do, came south. Cupcakes – meaning oversized, beautiful, and visually delicious masterpieces – began as specialty items that could be found in bakeries and gourmet shops. As their popularity grew, up popped cupcake shops. Not only a feast for the eyes, but certainly for the tummy – carrot cake with whipped cream cheese frosting, marble with Dulce de Leche frosting, vanilla with strawberry frosting and many other basics made their way into fashion. Then cupcake creators began going all out; Imagine biting into a "Tiffani blue" berry iced banana swirl or white chocolate ganache iced mocha chip cupcake…if you can dream it, someone can make it. And that's when we turn to the pros such as Mishka's Cupcakes, Kate's Couture Cupcakes, Gallery of Cakes, Cushy Cakes – all based right here in Aventura. Each offers its own version of the "best" cupcake – be it minis, individual, towers, by the dozen, customized, or "off the shelf" – what was once an afterthought to the special occasion cake has now emerged as one of our favorite everyday guilty pleasures.
And what could be better than replacing "cake's sidekick – ice cream" – then with yogurt (a.k.a. frozen yogurt, which will refer to from here on in as "fro yo"). After researching this often debated topic, I came to the conclusion that fro yo is only lower in fat and calories when compared to full fat ice cream. Those of you who eat low-fat or lite ice cream are taking in just about the same amount of calories and fat as you found in most fro yo. But supposedly, the live cultures and probiotics in yogurt can also survive in fro yo, making it sort of healthy for you. In case you do not know, probiotics are what actress Jamie Lee Curtis talks about in her TV commercials). They're added to yogurt to up the health benefits including digestion. There's no guarantee that they work, but no harm, no foul, right? So why do we like fro yo so much? What's the appeal? Well, first of all it tastes good. Nope, scratch that. It's delicious. And, there are so many flavors. From original tart (my personal favorite) and chocolate malted to pistachio, pineapple mango, or sea salt caramel, one is tastier than the next. But here's the best part of frozen yogurt – most of them are do-it-yourself (D.I.Y.). Love that!
Step into the shop, grab a cup, choose your flavors, and pull the lever. It's all there, as little or as much as you want. Mix 'em as you wish and then top 'em just the same. If you're into food, it's pretty exciting. Over the past year, more and more D.I.Y. yogurt shops have been appearing. Tutti Frutti, Pinkberry, and D'lites (the latter two are NOT serve yourself) are in Aventura, Yogurtland is just north at Gulfstream, There's yogen fruz, Craving Frozen Yogurt, and still others from which to choose. With so many choices, how does one know? The answer: Taste them all. Seriously. It's all about personal preference and you'll know when you find your spot. I am a fan of Yogurtland. The variety is there, toppings are good, service is great, attitude is awesome, and it's not overpriced. But not everyone is the same, so keep the trend going … find your fave. Eat and enjoy!

Gosh, an awful lot happens when you're not paying attention. Sorry about that. I hope things are going well. Jared and Jack have to spend the night at PCMC tonight. It's to see if Jack's O2 levels are dropping when he sleeps. Ironic. Hopefully he doesn't pick anything up while he's there.

Hundreds of students from across South Yorkshire attended a World War One debate at a Sheffield school organised by the Department of Education.
The debate was held at King Edward School in Broomhill, and was the first in a series of five being held across the UK in 2018/19.
With studies showing an increasing detachment between young people and the World Wars, the series has been created to increase young people's engagement with WW1 as a subject.
Wednesday's debate focused on 'Changing Reputation and Memory' and explored how the First World War has been remembered and memorialised over time.
READ MORE: SNOW falls in Sheffield as first flurries of winter hit city
It was chaired by BBC news journalist and presenter, John Young, who was joined by renowned experts in the history of World War One.
This included Professor Benjamin Ziemann, a Professor of Modern German History at the University of Sheffield and a renowned expert in the military, social and cultural history of the First World War.
And, Dr Chris Kempshall who is an Associate Lecturer in Modern History at the University of Kent, a member of the Academic Advisory Board to the Imperial War Museum First World War Centenary projects and an advisor to the BBC on their Centenary projects.

Students learnt about the impact of war on women, the effect war had on the British Empire, how we remember the fallen and about groups that have sometimes been forgotten in commemorations.
Daniel Janicki, a student in Year 13, at King Edward VII School said: "Having the chance to debate with world-renowned experts and hearing so many different perspectives brought the impact of the war to life for me.
"Seeing the actual uniforms and artillery used by soldiers who were not much older than us was also really thought provoking. It made me think about the huge sacrifices that were made just one hundred years ago so that we can live the life we do today."
Last year 90% of students that attended a debate rated them as 'good' with 94% of teachers saying it had helped their students reflect on WW1 from a variety of standpoints.
97% of teachers also said they would recommend the event to colleagues.

Chair of the panel, BBC news presenter, John Young, said: "I was transfixed by the First World War when I studied it as a schoolboy more than thirty years ago. It is as important now as it was then — perhaps even more so, as our political landscapes and alliances shift so unpredictably.
"I welcome this chance for young people to think about it - deeply - and ask questions.
"Everyone on the panel was impressed with the depth of knowledge the students demonstrated and with the energy and enthusiasm they brought to the debate.
"It was so reassuring to hear their own perspectives, and observe their curiosity. If these pupils reflect the next generation of decision makers and leaders, I'll feel in safe hands."
Matthew Harland, Head of History at King Edward VII School, said: "It was a privilege to host The Great War Debate at King Edward VII School. To see students thoroughly engaged in the issue of remembrance and ask far-reaching questions to a panel of academics was an extremely valuable experience.
"Our students not only challenged their own perceptions of the Great War but also challenged the views of leading historians. This not only develops their knowledge of the Great War but also furthers their interest in the study of history. An invaluable experience."
The series, now in its third year, is free to all state schools and has already seen thousands of young people from across England involved.
It will now visit schools in London, Liverpool, Nottingham and Oxford.

Cold food…..
In days gone by humans would salt meat to avoid a tummy, some might even suggest that millenia ago man would graze only on fresh plant life and raw meat……
But these days we tend to rely on a fridge freezer……
A fridge freezer that constantly goes: mhmmhmmmhhmmmhhmmhmhmhhhmmhhhmhmhmmmmhmhmmhmmhhmhmhhmmmmhhhmmmmhmhhmhm
A fridge freezer that is adding an irritating tone to all of my foley work…….
From now on I will be risking food poisoning for the sake of clear takes….
An waiting for the (not so far away) day when I shall once again live somewhere that has more than one room…..

Writing a service
DecentCMS services are just classes that fulfill a specific named contract. Services can consume other services, using existing or new contracts, thus providing a generic mechanism for extensibility, where extensions to core services can expose their own extensibility points.
The constructor for a service class must take the scope object as its parameter.
* My service implements the "do-something-custom" service contract.
var MyService = function MyService(scope) {
this.scope = scope;
The scope will act as the service locator for the service's methods:
MyService.prototype.doSomething = function doSomething(a, b) {
var myDependency = this.scope.require('my-dependency');
// do something with myDependency if it's not null.
The scope can also be used to obtain the settings for the feature the service is part of:
var site = this.scope.require('shell');
var settings = site.features['my-feature'];
var mySetting = settings['my-setting'];
mySetting variable will then contain the value defined in the
settings.json file under the
features.my-feature section:
"features": {
"my-feature": {
"my-setting": "The value for my setting"
A service must export its constructor:
module.exports = MyService;
It should also declare the feature it's part of, the service contract it implements, and the scope it should depend on:
MyService.feature = 'my-feature';
MyService.service = 'do-something-custom';
MyService.scope = 'shell';
The scope is especially important to define for services that must
persist throughout the lifetime of their scope.
For example, a service the instances of which must remain available
for the duration of the request would have a declared scope of
"request", and should be a scope singletons (that's the default).
If a service should not persist throughout the life of the scope, and
should instead have a new instance created every time it's created,
it should be marked
MyService.transient = true;
This way, all code that requires that service during a given request will get the same instance. Within two distinct requests however, you'll get distinct instances.
Features should also be declared in the module manifest, under the
features section of the
package.json file:
"features": {
"my-feature": {
"name": "My feature",
"description": "A specific implementation of 'do-something-custom'."

I'm sure I wasn't the only one up until the wee hours of May 10 biting all my nails (except the ink-stained one) in anticipation of the results of the 14th general election. As the announcements of winners stretched past 3am, it became more and more of a struggle to keep my eyes open. The only thing I wanted, apart from a conclusion to the polls, of course, was a big hot cup of kopi o.
That was the first of many cups I knew I would need throughout the next few days. I was proved right almost immediately when Malaysians had to wait a whole 12 hours the next day to see our new prime minister being sworn in. Between anxiously refreshing our Facebook and Twitter feeds from 9.30am to 9.30pm, my friends and I chugged mugs of steaming hot kopi kow and iced lattes.
Who could blame us? Take a five-minute nap and you would have missed the concession speech of Malaysia's first ever outgoing incumbent party president, calls and assurances by royalty and the police force for a smooth transition of power, and the official appointment of Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad as the seventh prime minister of Malaysia, more than 15 years after being the fourth.
Despite an almost 70-year age gap between us, the newly elected 92-year-old Tun seemed to have 10 times more energy than I did after a busy campaigning period and long wait for his swearing-in ceremony. But even he admitted to sleeping in after a late night celebrating the official victory of the Pakatan Harapan coalition.
Still, within an hour after he was sworn in, he told the country he would not be resting despite having declared Friday a public holiday. It looks like we've got ourselves a government that is not going to rest on its laurels, and if that's not a wake-up call to the rest of the country, I don't know what is.
Now here's a little weather forecast for the weeks ahead: we are going to be seeing skies of uncertainty with showers of hope. Nobody knows for certain how the stock market will react until the opening bell on Monday — will it crash after weeks of global investors being assured that Barisan Nasional would stay in power? Or is the different tune now being sung by local fund managers about equity bulls catchy enough for foreign asset holders to start singing, too?
Whatever happens, this is the perfect opportunity for Bursa Malaysia to debut a new derivative product as soon as the market opens: coffee futures. This won't only stimulate liquidity in our bodies but liquidity on the stock market as well, which is a worthy goal, right?
Here's why it will work: with the amount of work that both our new government has to put into fulfilling its promises for the first 100 days and the new opposition into keeping the new government in check, copious amounts of that liquid elixir are going to be necessary to keep everyone alert and sane. That means that there will be a surge in demand for coffee, not just from the newly elected parliamentarians and their teams, but from journalists, analysts and eager members of the public watching every move of the new leaders and hopefully the change makers they have just installed.
One could even say that it is the coffee makers who are the true winners of this election. They are the ones who will see sales climb as Malaysians grab multiple caffeine boosts to get them through the day. Whether it's OldTown white coffee, kopi from the neighbourhood mamak and kopitiam, or a third-wave latte from a hipster café, Malaysians are going to be needing their coffee breaks to reflect upon and talk about the state of our nation.
Up and at 'em!

What's all this fuss about?
My name is Hacki Dragon. This page is mainly about an activity called nitpicking, i.e. looking for mistakes, in the Ultima series. Ultima is a traditional classical computer roleplaying game series, founded by Richard Garriott alias Lord British in 1981. It came to its end in 1999 with Ultima IX: Ascension - The various Ultima Online spin-offs were never considered true Ultimas by fans.
As the Ultima series provides you with rich storytelling, detailed characters and a huge treasure of background information on the fantasy world, you can also find plot holes and various other errors in there with ease. But why? Easy: Just for fun!
There are currently 847 nitpicks on Hacki's Ultima Page!
Hacki's Ultima Page was once founded with the noble intention of putting Ultima IX: Ascension to shame, a game frowned upon by most old fans, and to show everyone why the older Ultimas were so much better than the last installment of the series. However, I soon opened up a nitpick archive for the older Ultimas, too, in search for completeness. This didn't change anything about my strong opinion on Ultima IX, of course.
I also began to put more general Ultima information on the site, such as articles, infos on the original Ultima IX, multimedia, a collection of press reactions for Ultima IX, and much more.

Suffer Well
Song: Suffer Well
Artist: Depeche Mode
Album: Playing the Angel
Depeche Mode hit their sales peak with the monster album "Violator" in 1990, including the instant hits "Policy of Truth," "Enjoy the Silence," and "Personal Jesus." Although anyone who was deep into New Wave knew their back catalog and semi-hits "People Are People" and "Just Can't Get Enough." While "Violator" was massive, and thought to be their "Joshua Tree" they never built on its success like U2 did. Lead singer Dave Gahan was sidelined by a heroin problem, yet they continued to release good albums straight through with middling success.
Last year they released the very, very good "Playing the Angel," to unfortunately little or no fanfare. They have a strong fanbase that buys the records, but nothing close to a top forty hit. This is unfortunate because the songs are great, but seem to point to a pretty sizable shift in what is popular in music right now. "Suffer Well" is just one of many strong songs on the record and sounds like vintage D.M.

At time of writing there are over 60 strong, articulate and passionate objections posted on SODC's website.
You have said this scheme is not to plan and unsustainable. You have asked how Didcot's road infrastructure can cope with this extra burden and expressed your worries about Road Safety. You have pointed out that our primary schools are full. You have asked why Fleet Meadow's flooding problem will not being fixed. You have also talked about urbanisation, light pollution, lack of economic benefit and the detrimental effect this scale of build will have on East Hagbourne.
This is a great start but we need many more objections to further strengthen our case.
If you have not yet had your say go to the OBJECT page of the website. You will find tips and advice on how to object. You will find links to Grainger's plans and those SODC policies that conflict with them.
If you have already commented and have more to say then comment again. If you responded to the EIA consultation and think the job is done, it's not. Please do comment again.
SODC's deadline for comment on Grainger's plans is 6th November. Join the chorus and have your say before it is too late.

China's ancient capital Xi'an plans to offer visitors a bird's eye view of the city, officials said Wednesday.
For 50 million yuan (7.15 million U.S. dollars), China Aviation Industrial Base in Yanliang, an outlying district about 50 km from downtown Xi'an, plans to buy five to eight helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft that will fly tourists at altitudes of 200 meters to 3,000 m, said project manager Gao Liting. "A ride will last 30 minutes to two hours and will take sightseers over the sacred Daoist mountain Huashan, the mausoleum of the legendary Yellow Emperor and the Hukou Waterfalls in the Yellow River" he said. "Tourists can also try parachute jumps, shoot videos and even do some flying" Gao said the base was negotiating with potential investors, including foreign aircraft manufacturers, travel companies and domestic business owners who are interested in the project.
He said specific plans would be unveiled before the end of this year.
Part of the plan will include opening one of the country's leading aircraft makers, Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group, to tourists, said Jin Qiansheng, director of the Yanliang aviation base.
"According to the developed countries' experience, more people choose to travel by air when per capita GDP exceeds 2,000 U.S. dollars; when the figure tops 4,000 U.S. dollars, there's a growing demand for private planes" said Jin.
He said China's aviation industry would therefore expect another boom when per capita GDP tops 4,000 U.S. dollars, "presumably in 2012".

Knee implants plays significant role in resurfacing a knee damaged either by traumas or by rheumatoid arthritis. Surgical procedure involving implantation of an artificial knee is termed as arthroplasty. Depending upon the severity and need, these knee implants are developed in different forms viz., metal alloys, strong plastic parts and ceramic material. The rising proportion of aging population across the world has increased the number of people suffering from osteoporosis and arthritis. Moreover, the sedentary lifestyle among people has led to increasing prevalence of obesity and diabetes. Owing to these factors, the demand for knee implant surgeries has been growing worldwide. Also leveraging technological advancement in procedures such as minimal invasive surgery, better implant materials has increased the success rates. Rising awareness about the knee implant surgeries will act as another driving factor to the market.
With advancement of technology in the knee implant market, companies are offering diverse product portfolio to patients and surgeons with novel techniques, thus providing better outcomes for patients. Due to heavy research and development in knee implant industry, companies are offering technologically advanced products to the customers. The high cost of knee replacement surgery is acting as a major restraint in the countries facing economic downturn for the last couple of years. Many patients either avoid or postpone the surgery due to high cost of the procedure. This has compelled the hospitals and surgeons to strive for decreasing the cost of procedure to accommodate more patients while providing better care. Moreover, high industry competition is resulting into price negotiation and thus helping the growth of overall market size.
Companies' manufacture knee implants with variety of designs and made up from a variety of materials. Most of these devices are made up of multiple material components constituting medical grade material. Based on the type of procedure, the global knee implants market can be categorized into total knee replacement, partial knee replacement and revision knee replacement. In the total knee replacement procedure, all parts of knee joints are replaced with knee implants. This procedure is further sub-segmented into cemented knee replacement and cement-less knee replacement. In the partial knee replacement procedures single part of the knee is replaced with an implant while the revision knee replacement procedures refers to replacement of an existing implant with new one. On the basis of composition, knee implants are also categorized as fixed bearing prosthesis and mobile bearing prosthesis.
Geographically, the global knee implants market has been segmented into five major regions, viz., North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa, and Latin America. The U.S. and Europe are the two big markets comprising of comparatively significant market share of the total knee implant market. Europe and North America are anticipated to dominate on the global knee replacement market. These two regions are followed by Asia market owing to increasing number of knee replacement surgeries in China and India. The factors leading to an increase in the demand for knee implants in Asia Pacific region include aging population affected with knee joint disorders and increase in awareness level for related treatments. India and China have large population base, and hence foreseen to be a highly potential market for knee replacement surgeries. The increasing disposable income in these countries will further propel growth in the Asia Pacific knee implant market.
Globally, the knee implants market is dominated by players such as B.Braun, Smith and Nephew, Stryker, Zimmer Biomet, Medacta and Depuy. The medical device manufacturing companies are attempting to increase their market share through several product awareness and marketing campaigns. Technology and patient centric approach has been a key factor in driving the overall knee implants market.

The Wind control demo requires three files:
1) NMEATalker.ocx talks to the NMEA 1.5 or NMEA 2.0 wire
2) Wind.ocx draws the wind control
3) MWV.EXE is the program to run that connects the two above
Optional file: Visual BASIC 6.0 source code, in PKZip format.
If you place all three files in the same directory and then run MWV.EXE, you ought to see the wind control show on your screen. The control is resized via its width: if you use the mouse cursor and left mouse button, you can pull the control left or right to make it larger or smaller.
Private Sub Form_Resize() If Me.WindowState <> vbMinimized Then If Me.Width < 2500 Then Me.Width = 2500 ctlWind1.Width = Me.Width - Screen.TwipsPerPixelX * 14 ctlWind1.Height = ctlWind1.Width If Me.WindowState <> vbMaximized Then Me.Height = ctlWind1.Height + (Screen.TwipsPerPixelX * 33) End If End If End Sub
If you "double click" the wind control, you ought to see the set-up window. The defaults for NMEA are COM1,4800,n,8,1 but you may change the COM port and baud rate where needed. The older NMEA uses a baud rate of 1200, while the newer uses 9600.
The set-up screen includes a "Open Talker" button that is used to start the control listening to the NMEA wire. The "Close Talker" disconnects from the NMEA wire. The timeout is 5 seconds: if a connection is not made in that time, chances are good the com port or baud rate is incorrect, or your computer is not wired to the NMEA buss.
Private Sub Talker1_MWV(NMEASentence As Variant) ctlWind1.MWV NMEASentence End Sub
When connected, the control listens to any MWV sentence, and when it hears one it passes that sentence to the control to redraw. The MWV device that speaks ought to be itself selectable for true or relative angle, and the unit of speed.
Note that I could not test the program with a anemometer because I do not have one. I did test the NMEA connection using a GPS receiver. If it does not work, please holler so that I can try to fix it.

Cowdenbeath, 16th June 2018 – Meeting Report and Photos
The biennial journey into Scotland has become one of the highlights of the season; a weekend which brings together the best of all things stock cars. Kicking off with the traditional Cowdenbeath fixture; Saturday evening at the raceway is a spectacle; the atmosphere, incredible.
This visit did not disappoint either, a great entry of 45 cars arrived, fans packed the terraces and whilst the weather might have been less favourable at times, the action was, as ever, first rate around the Racewall. The wall, as it is on so many occasions, wasn't forgiving on a night which saw two smart cars make their debut – Chris Cowley (37) and Martin Spiers (451). Full credit must go to the teams, the cars looked great. I'm not sure I would have picked the Racewall for their debut though chaps!
21 cars on track for heat 1 with Jacklyn Ellis (219) on pole. In to the first turn and the yellow graders are caught out and several smash in to the wall; including John Englestone (520), Steve Whittle (183) and John Fortune (164). The ailing cars limped across the track and caught out much of the passing pack; a clash of bumpers as they scrambled in to the back straight. Fortune ended up balanced on top of Whittle as a result.
After the early skirmish, Sam Jacklin (137) was your leader; with Ellis in close contention. Ellis made a move on Jacklin and took over the lead. Ellis then pulled a gap on Jacklin; leaving the 137 car to battle Paul Hopkins (278) and Daz Kitson (532) for second. Jacklin ended up hard in the wall in to turn 3; which prompted the first waved yellows of the night.
On the restart, the top three to lead them off were: 219, 532 and Karl Hawkins (175). The top 4 were all together, battling for position. Hawkins lost out on third to Lee Fairhurst (217) as Kitson tried to move Ellis wide. Fairhurst then went in on Kitson. The lap boards were out and Ellis was still under significant pressure from Kitson, who, once again, tried a bigger lunge on the back of 219, but glancing off the back bumper, Kitson put himself in to the turn 1 wall.
Into the closing stages and Ellis was now under pressure from Fairhurst. A slight gentlemanly nudge in to turn 3 and Ellis was on the outside, but Fairhurst clearly carried too much speed as the pair locked up and duly collected the wall. Ellis parked up and, with Fairhurst damaged and delayed, this allowed Hawkins through to take over. He then went on to win with Frankie Wainman (515) coming in second after a quiet race.
Result: 175, 515, 464, 259, 278, 217, 37, 461, 24, 211, 127, 212
Heat 2 arrived with 23 cars on track; Martin Spiers (451) in his new car, starting pole position. Into the first bend, much like the first heat, a number of cars went straight on in to the wall. Ronald Ferguson (437) the first there, a couple of others before Kyle Gray (124) slammed the wall too. The Gray machine, while crawling in to the back straight marker tyres, was smacked by the passing pack and the waved yellows were called for.
The lead cars to take the restart: 451, Stuart Shevill (518) and Wayne Marshall (483). After a slow steady rolling lap, Shevill was straight on the attack in to the first bend, but Spiers held his line. Mat Newson (16) put a shove in on Joff Gibson (249) in turn 3 as Tom Harris (84) did the same on Newson in to turn 1. Gibson, sensing opportunity, lands a hit on Newson in to turn 3; the 16 car sideways collected the wall and rode up high against the concrete; with Gibson too climbing in unison; the waved yellows called for the pair on the side against the wall.
The restart saw 518, 84 and 390 your leaders. Harris wasted no time and took Shevill wide in to turn 3 to take charge of the race. Tristan Jackson (101) was making rapid progress after a slow start and put away Neil Scriven (11) in to turn 1 in a cloud of smoke from the wheelspin. Will Hunter (220) moved past Shevill in the closing stages to take third, but up ahead it was Harris who was unstoppable in first, Stuart Smith (390) finishing second.
Result: 84, 390, 220, 518, 101, 25, 543, 451, 126, 372, 361, 11
The Consolation saw a field of 17 cars on track; Ron Ferguson (437) starting on pole ahead of a tough field which included Mat Newson (16), Danny Wainman (212) and Jacklyn Ellis (219). Craig Utley (484) started the race aggressively putting John Fortune (164) up the turn 1 wall; whilst shortly after Wainman put out Daz Kitson (532) in to the same piece of wall.
Approaching the second half and the race settled in to rhythm; Utley moving Ellis aside in turn 3 for the lead, Ellis still struggling with damage from heat 1 nursing the car, but evidently not as comfortable as she would like and dropped down the top 10. Joff Gibson (249) came up against Fortune in the closing stages; Gibson launching Fortune in to the wall in turn 3; the 164 machine sustaining damage which forced retirement on the local. Back up front, Utley led the way and maintained a big lead over Newson in second, and that's how it remained to the flag.
Result: 484, 16, 212, 346, 437, 249, 219, 11, 183, 13, 129, 532
The feature final of the night, the 2018 Scottish Championship, featured 26 cars firing up on track to the sound of "Drivers, start your engines". The atmosphere was electric with the noise of Chevy V8s filling the arena. Could Tom Harris (84) take three Scottish Championships in a row?
Ron Ferguson (437) starting on pole position once more led them off. Karl Hawkins (175), Phoebe Wainman (211) and Will Hunter (220) were the first to collect the wall, whilst the yellow graders smashed in to turn 1. Tristan Jackson (101) coming off worst, ending nose on to the fence, exposed to traffic; but Jackson was largely avoided and quickly got back going. Chris Cowley (37) put in Drew Lammas (543) in to turn 1; but Cowley tripped over Lamas resulting in a brief pile up and Cowley went over the top of Lammas in to a spin against the turn 2 fence.
Tom Harris (84) put Frankie Wainman (515) to the wall in turn 1; as Martin Spiers (451) leads the way, Ferguson in second, followed by Craig Utley (484) and then Jacklyn Ellis (219) fourth. The leaders tripped over one another with some assistance from a back marker, creating a brief melee in turn 3 which saw Utley sent to the inner marker tyres.
The halfway stage was signalled and Spiers still held down the lead; but such is the nature of the raceway; anything could happen and then, Spiers must have had his heart in his mouth as he nearly tripped over the Kelvin Hassell (13) machine in the home straight. Spiers unsettled, but kept going. Lee Fairhurst (217) seemed to go up a gear and rapidly progressed further up the order, moving over Mat Newson (16); whilst Ashley England (346) was sent out hard in to the wall in turn 3.
The lap boards were now presented, Spiers holding a lead over second place Stuart Shevill (518), but the gap closing, with Harris charging hard on both, in close contention in third. Harris bumpered Shevill wide to take second – it was looking ever more likely of an 84 win. Fairhurst then did the same to Shevill moving over the 518 car to take third. At the chequered flag though, Spiers held on for a remarkable, unexpected win; Harris not close enough for last bender. Spiers becoming the first white grade Cowdenbeath F1 final winner.
Result: 451, 84, 217, 16, 518, 437, 515, 464, 183, 212, 219, 25
25 cars returned for the Grand National event; Martin Spiers (451) taking the half lap handicap. Ron Ferguson (437) starting on pole position for the final time. Craig Utley (484) once again aggressive at the start put away Steve Reedman (361) out hard to the turn 1 fence as Lindsay Wilson (461) went out to the home straight marker tyres; waved yellows were called for.
The restart saw Sam Jacklin (137) lead them off. At the green, Karl Hawkins (175) put away Tristan Jackson (101) to the turn 1 wall, with Wayne Marshall (483) on his outside and nowhere to go when Jackson hurtled to the wall; Marshall went up riding the wall, rolling in the process. Wilson, unable to avoid, went in to the back of the 483 machine; thankfully all were ok.
Another waved yellow period, this time it was Stuart Shevill (518) leading the way, Jacklin in second and Steve Whittle (183) in third. On the restart and Tom Harris (84) shunted Frankie Wainman (515) wide in to turn 1; with Lee Fairhurst (217) offering the same to Wainman a lap later. It was the halfway stage and Shevill still led the way, a blisteringly quick Harris now in second and Hawkins third. Harris reeled in Shevill in the second half, taking over the lead as the lap boards were presented. Further back and Danny Wainman (212) was enjoying a closing race battle with brother Frankie and Mat Newson (16). Danny bumpered Frankie; the pair clashed in to turn 1, rattling the wall.
Harris, clear in front at the chequered flag, took the win; again a hard-charging Fairhurst saw him climb positions at the close finishing second; but in to the last bend 515 went for a big last bender on Newson, Newson clattering the wall; 16 quickly tried to get himself across the racing line; but he had no option to follow Wainman by the flag.
Result: 84, 217, 175, 515, 16, 464, 346, 518, 212, 183, 11, 70

The present volume grew out of a double session of the Boston Collo- quium for the Philosophy of Science held in Boston on March 25, 1983. The papers presented there (by Biezunski, Glick, Goldberg, and Judith Goodstein!) offered both sufficient comparability to establish regulari- ties in the reception of relativity and Einstein's impact in France, Spain, the United States and Italy, and sufficient contrast to suggest the salience of national inflections in the process. The interaction among the participants and the added perspectives offered by members of the audience suggested the interest of commissioning articles for a more inclusive volume which would cover as many national cases as we could muster. Only general guidelines were given to the authors: to treat the special or general theories, or both, hopefully in a multidisciplinary setting, to examine the popular reception of relativity, or Einstein's personal impact, or to survey all these topics. In a previous volume, on the 2 comparative reception of Darwinism, one of us devised a detailed set of guidelines which in general were not followed. In our opinion, the studies in this collection offer greater comparability, no doubt because relativity by its nature and its complexity offers a sharper, more easily bounded target. As in the Darwinism volume, this book concludes with an essay intended to draw together in comparative perspective some of many themes addressed by the participants.
