It was already snowing when I woke up and didn't know why I still set off.
Brake pads were frozen and stuck, icicles were forming... horrible times ascending and descending. My pads were completely gone in a day. All I can think of was... its was bloody cold... I can make it down, I can do it...
Taldyk Pass @ 3615m
Nearing Uch-Tyube I was invited to stay with a family due to the bad weather and that its getting late. Father and son were taxi drivers and Papa insisted that I was sent to Gulcha in their car the next day as they were dropping customers off there. They insisted to put my bike on the car and the pressure of 5 other passengers already waiting resulted in a lost fight to go off on my own. Papa said it was too cold... road up and down etc.... then I realised it was a stretch of beautiful landscape towards Gulcha that I can only enjoyed in the car :(
After the crazy ascend and descend in heavy snow, I'm glad to sleep in a warm room with a full stomach
After this pass, it was easy descend and almost flat to Osh
Coming down Chyiyrchyk pass I thought I heard my name between their conversation on the other side of the road, we waved and they came over my side to realise that they were my brother's friends and have been expecting to cross path with me and hopefully camped together but unfortunately we met at the wrong place. This is Luke and Flora from England, they are probably the last to cross the Pamirs in Tajik, gosh it gonna be so cold for them (http://www.180degreesfromhome.com/) and it was here I got another puncture which Luke pointed out... ya I didn't even noticed during my descend
And then I met another British tourer, Dave from Liverpool. Due to work and family commitments, Dave was unable to do long tours like us but this never stopped him... he has been splitting them in sections and joining the dots every year!
Arriving at Osh. Whoopy!
It gets abit cramped when 2 cyclists started spreading their stuff around hehe
At Tes Guesthouse... they say its too cold outside and moved me indoor for the same price. Coincidently Tara (first met in Tajik) and Jochen (first met in Kyrgyz then Tajik) were here too! Then Jean arrived and before we left, David whom I met before Osh arrived back here too!

My latest addiction - Laghman
Jean from France cycling towards Japan (http://jeanjeanenroueslibres.blogspot.com) cooked us dinner
Tes guesthouse's breakfast... there is something new everyday
Left over coffee from Tajik. Cheap but very very bad coffee FYI. Yucks.
Rode out of town with Jean before we split up into different directions
Around Jalal-Abad Bazaar

Hindustan Surkhiyan Desk:Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Friday took on Bharatiya Janta Party government over 50% increase in monetary deposits by Indians in Swiss banks, stating that party made tall and false claims before coming to power over black money.
Taking a jibe at the BJP government, Gandhi said in 2014 promised to bring back black money from Swiss banks and deposit Rs 15 lakh in each Indians bank account. Thereafter, 2016 the government claimed that the demonetization announcement would cure black money; and now after there is a 50% increase in country's black money deposits, the government is claiming that all the money in Swiss banks is white and not black.
2014, HE said: I will bring back all the "BLACK" money in Swiss Banks & put 15 Lakhs in each Indian bank A/C.
2016, HE said: Demonetisation will cure India of "BLACK" money.
2018, HE says: 50% jump in Swiss Bank deposits by Indians, is "WHITE" money. No "BLACK" in Swiss Banks! pic.twitter.com/7AIgT529ST
— Rahul Gandhi (@RahulGandhi) June 29, 2018
As per the latest data, Money deposited by Indians in Swiss banks rose over 50% to Rs 7,000 crore in 2017.
Annual banking statistics, 2017 https://t.co/7dFNkvG2l7
— Swiss National Bank (@SNB_BNS_en) June 28, 2018
As per the latest data, the Indian money in Swiss banks included CHF464 million (₹3,200 crore) in the form of customer deposits, CHF152 million (₹1,050 crore) through other banks and CHF383 million (₹2,640 crore) as 'other liabilities' such as securities at the end of 2017.
The surge has come as a huge surprise given various initiatives by Indian government to clampdown the black money stashed abroad.

Virginia Watercolors Reflect Georgia O'Keeffe's Path To Modernist Innovator
Before Georgia O'Keeffe became famous for her abstract paintings of bones, flowers and desert landscapes, she went through an evolution. Part of that evolution took place in Charlottesville during the summers of 1912-1916. A new exhibit at the University of Virginia's Fralin Museum of Art highlights this unexplored period of her life. For Virginia Currents, Peter Solomon has more.
By the time she was 24, Georgia O'Keeffe was at a crossroads. Her father went bankrupt, her parents split up and her mother suffered from tuberculosis. O'Keeffe won prizes for her work while attending art schools in Chicago and New York, but she ran out of money to pay for school. Matthew McClendon is director of the Fralin Museum of Art. He says she was uninspired by the schools' realistic approach to art and she hadn't found her voice yet. .
Matthew McClendon: And was questioning whether she was going to really be an artist as she had wanted to be.
In 1912, O'Keeffe decided to spend the summer with her mother and sisters in Charlottesville. While attending lectures at UVA, she learned about Arthur Wesley Dow.
McClendon: Dow was approaching art instruction from this rather radical viewpoint that, the artist had a great deal of what we would say agency today
Instead of teaching his students to render subjects with photographic accuracy, he encouraged them to think creatively. Making something beautiful was more important than making something accurate.
McClendon: That the artist should be thinking in terms of selection, elimination,emphasis, so truly composing an image
In the Fralin's exhibit Unexpected O'Keeffe, you can see the artist applying these lessons in her watercolors of campus.
Elizabeth Turner: We're standing here across the street from the rotunda looking over at the grounds of the university.
Exhibit co-curator and Art History Professor Elizabeth Turnerdescibes O'Keeffe's painting of Jefferson's rotunda. Using a handful of colors, she portrays the structure with simple lines and shapes. The abstract foliage in the foreground draws your eyes to the dome.
Turner: O'Keeffe would often say, and this was rooted in the Dow method, 'There is nothing less real than realism.' So what she is constructing here in this watercolor is not an exact description of the setting, but rather a way of conveying her experience of looking up at this building.
In another painting, O'Keeffe frames the building more dramatically with two trees that are as black as night. Other paintings include scenes of the Italianate gardens and buildings from UVA's campus. O'Keeffe painted these watercolors in a notebook that she kept until she died. Professor Turner says this was the beginning of her embrace of abstract art.
Turner: On the one level, it's a credentialing exercise. It's notebook of watercolors that's telling the world that she knows how to teach this Dow method. On the other hand, what she's doing in developing this composition is also assimilating and acquiring a vocabulary of shapes. Thinking about art as a language, a language of design, a language of beauty, a language of awakening and empowerment.
The exhibition includes paintings inspired by O'Keefe's expeditions to places like Humpback Rocks and Mount Elliot. The mountains are reduced to simple contour shapes, basically a few bands of color. Jonathan Chance is a recent UVA graduate who served as a researcher for the exhibition. He says the paintings reflect O'Keefe's rapid evolution.
Jonathan Chance: Once you understand the principles, then you can come to something like these mountain watercolors, which really the primary lines are just sort of a curved shape going horizontally across the picture plane and you can start to work with this and feel confident, like I know how to place this on the picture plane, I know how high up it needs to be and what light color and dark color it needs to be
In her later years, O'Keeffe settled in New Mexico and became known for her paintings of dried cattle bones and abstract landscapes of the arid New Mexico desert. Museum Director McClendon hopes that visitors to the exhibit will come away with a better understanding of her entire body of work.
McClendon: She's one of the most studied artists in American art history, but this is probably the last period that's relatively unstudied in her life and most people don't know about.
McClendon adds that he really wants people, especially students, to understand that art is a process, and, like Georgia O'Keeffe, it might take years and years of hard work and even doubt before an artist finds his or her voice.
Unexpected O'Keeffe: The Virginia Watercolors and Later Paintings is on display at the Fralin Museum of Art until January 27, 2019.

Trying to describe him now defies my ability to avoid cliches: every time I take the minute to look at him, really look at him, I'm stunned by the fact that he's six. That he is my first baby, and now he is this lanky boy, all gestures and adverbs, storm and sunshine, drama and antics.
He came into my room this afternoon in his looking for socks and his little knobby needs just about made me melt: the way they tilt in toward's each other just a little; the way one knee has a scab from when he fell off his bike last week. His hair was damp from playing outdoors in the rain, his eyes huge as always seemed to fill up his whole face.
It's hard to explain to someone who doesn't have children what it's like to fall in love with your child over and over again, even when they annoy the crap out of you, as Bean routinely does. He's pushy and edgy and impatient; he's convinced he's at the very center of everyone's world; he has a hundred questions nearly ever minute; he is inordinately invested in being right. Yet every single day when I see him after I've been gone his presence fills me with a brightness.
He wraps his thin arms around my waist: "let's play alligator, Mama!" he begs.
Alligator, like almost every other game he invents, means tussling and wrestling on the floor.
And though I'm often preoccupied when I arrive, I oblige, wrapping my arms around his wriggling little torso, chomping the air with enormous imaginary teeth. And just like that, I'm in it. In this moment, in this love.

I've been thinking about barns
lately. I don't know why. None of my people were farmers, at least as
far back as great-great anythings. I took my favorite barn photograph
when I was still in high school. It was the side of an old barn,
recently painted white, with a rooster in the only window. My father remembers this photography in color with the white barn and a red roost. When I left
photography, I did not keep track of my negatives. Now all that is left
is a poorly made print I made on RC paper. It is, and was, in black and white. Good black and white photographs can make you think you are seeing colors,
was recently at an antique mall. One of the booths featured items made
from old, weathered barn boards. In the center of the booth as a color photograph
of the aging, leaning barn just before it was dismantled to make picture
frames. end tables, some faux-folk art Adirondack-style chairs. All of
them shitty. They should have burned the barn and saved it from such
I named this
shot Barley House because the word barn is from the Old English, meaning
barley house. It is interesting that today barn has two main meanings.
One is "A large farm building used for storing grain, hay, or straw or
for housing livestock." The other is much more interesting and yet
somehow related, "A unit of area...used especially in particle physics."
Finally, I'm not a big DeLillo fan, but I am fond of this: "What was the barn like before it was photographed?' he said. 'What did it look like, how was it different from other barns, how was it similar to other barns? We can't answer these questions because we've read the signs, seen the people snapping the pictures. We can't get outside the aura. We're part of the aura. We're here, we're now."-- White Noise

Asger Jorn, the Museum – and me

Facebook's "political" and "nudity": Two stories about art censorship
For the sheer fun of it, I had created an image of President Donald Trump as a pastiche on Andy Warhol, a little "old Warhol-style." It took me about 15 minutes and there was nothing political about it – it was merely a fun exercise. Here it is: I posted it on my Instagram account and it was liked at least as much as … Read More Facebook's "political" and "nudity": Two stories about art censorship

The Power and Importance of Commission-Free Insurance
I love the culture we've created at DPL. It's energetic, passionate, team-oriented and highly focused on our mission. We're incredibly fortunate to have a team of talented and driven people working together for a common goal and it helps when everyone believes the mission is important. Our mission is simple yet extremely ambitious: Create widespread industry change to bring low-cost, Commission-Free insurance to market for RIAs.
Throughout my career I have tried to drive meaningful change in the financial services industry for the benefit of the client or consumer. After nearly 25 years, I still get angry when I see people taken advantage of. It fuels me. It's also why I have been drawn to the RIA industry. I love its fiduciary ethos. And when you see what I've seen, there's no room for doubt: Fiduciaries need to be involved in their clients' insurance!
I believe—to my core—that DPL's mission is important and powerful. For clients. For RIAs. For the RIA industry as a whole. Let me tell you why:
Powerful and Important Things Happen When You Remove Commissions from Insurance
For Clients:
The obvious answer to this is the dramatic re-pricing that is enabled by removing commissions (more on that in a minute). But to me, the most important and powerful change that comes from removing commissions is that it enables fiduciaries to implement insurance for their clients. I'll say it again because it cannot be overstated: Fiduciaries need to be involved in their clients' insurance!
I'm not saying that sellers of insurance aren't trying to do what's in the best interest of their clients, I'm just saying that I believe heavy commissions and proprietary (i.e. — rigged — don't get me started on these!) illustration systems cause reasonable doubt. (This is also why we're fans of kindred spirit Barry Flagg at Veralytic, whose company brings Morningstar-like reporting to life insurance contracts.) Removing the conflicts caused by commissions and performing objective analysis of insurance will create better client outcomes through better product selection.
Better client outcomes also occur when products are re-priced by taking out commissions. Commissions cause obvious ethical problems for fiduciaries, but the pricing problems they cause are an issue as well. Reducing the M&E expense of a variable annuity from the industry average of 1.35% for commissioned products to 0.20% – 0.35% in Commission-Free products is highly impactful for the client. From an asset management point of view, this can turn a VA from a problem into a valuable source of tax deferral. Similar powerful examples can be found in permanent life insurance products where commissions are often 80% (!) of initial premiums. Do your clients a favor and explore the wide range of Commission-Free products that are coming to market – whether through DPL or from carriers directly.
For RIAs:
For decades RIAs have been handicapped in their ability to serve their clients by not being able to offer insurance. Insurance is an important part of a financial plan and, when priced appropriately, can provide powerful protections and longevity benefits to client and firm assets. Not to mention income protection, wealth transfer and legacy planning.
The opportunity for firm-level growth by incorporating insurance solutions is enormous. The RIA industry is huge – nearly $4T and growing. The annuity market alone is larger than the RIA industry. The life insurance market is even bigger. How else can RIAs potentially double the size of their firms without adding a single client?
Your clients want, need and already own many insurance products. The psychological and financial benefits of insurance in retirement are well-documented in academic research. And that's before you add the pricing power of Commission-Free products. When insurance was exclusively commission-based you could not be a fiduciary and offer insurance products. Now, with low-cost, Commission-Free products rapidly coming to market, it's hard to be a fiduciary without offering insurance.
Serve your clients more holistically, grow your practice, expand your fiduciary purview. The market is changing – take advantage of the opportunity being presented to grow your practice and better serve your clients.
For the RIA industry:
As I already stated, I love the RIA industry. I am passionate about its fiduciary ethos and share its entrepreneurial spirit. But, for all the growth the industry is experiencing, I can foresee pending problems. The industry's foundational points of differentiation are disappearing:
Fee-based asset management – Once the tangible differentiating factor for RIAs when competing for clients, now nearly every wirehouse or broker/dealer representative also manages assets on a fee basis. It's become the industry norm.
Fiduciary standard of care – Like fee-based asset management, the fiduciary standard is coming to the advisory industry. Whether mandated by regulation or not, wirehouses and broker/dealers are moving to a fiduciary standard – eliminating another of the RIA industry's points of differentiation. Whether they say they are acting in the client's "Best Interest" or acting as a fiduciary, it will sound very much the same to clients.
With these foundational points of differentiation disappearing or becoming muddied, the RIA industry needs to add services to compete in the long run. Due to the size of the market and importance of insurance to a financial plan, I believe adding insurance is a critical piece to that expansion of services.
DPL is working tirelessly to help create this opportunity for RIAs, the RIA industry and its clients. Contact us to see how we can be of assistance to you.

Since 2014 we've given over $2 million to food service workers in need of emergency support. Sponsors and partners have dawned their capes, coming to the rescue for over 1,500 people. You may call them donors - we call them heroes.
Annual Sponsorship
Be a leader among leaders.
Our annual sponsors are our most generous backers, there to support our biggest events of the year and helping us fulfill our core mission.
Annual sponsors are recognized throughout the year, both on our various online platforms and at GK signature events. Your logo will be featured on our homepage and our Who We Are page.
If you would like more information about joining GK as an annual sponsor, please email Naomi Green.
Five-Star Restaurants
Who needs Michelin stars when you can have GK stars?
This year, Giving Kitchen is rolling out its recognition program for restaurants: Five-star Restaurants. It's a "choose your own adventure" for supporting Giving Kitchen and here's how it works: each opportunity to support the Giving Kitchen is a star and the stars add up - the goal is to get to five. We meet with your team and present a complete list of opportunities (such as Multiply Joy, Dining with Gratitude or a third-party event) to support our organization and just like that, you're in the Five-star Restaurant program.
In return, each of our star rating receives its own set of perks, from a decal for your storefront to shout outs in our printed and online collateral, to name a few.
Proudly display your star-rating decal in your restaurant's window to show off your dedication to restaurant workers to your patrons. It's also a constant reminder to your staff that you're dedicated to not only helping them if they are ever faced with an unexpected crisis, but that you're there to help their friends in other restaurants across the city and state, too.
Get your restaurant on the charts - email Naomi Green to start collecting your stars.
Signature Event Sponsorship
Giving Kitchen hosts four signature events a year: Team Hidi, Dining with Gratitude, Sunday at Serenbe and The Pinky
Our Signature Events comprise a massive chunk of our annual budget that translates into helping thousands of food service workers who come to us throughout the year for help.
Team Hidi is our biggest annual fundraiser and the seedling from which Giving Kitchen grew. Initially a fundraiser to support Ryan Hidinger's heroic fight against cancer in 2013, over 50 restaurants now come together on this historic night - which provides a third of our annual funding - to help hundreds of food service workers in crisis as we remember Ryan. For more about Team Hidi, click here.
Dining with Gratitude is officially one of the best weeks of the year! Over 120 restaurants partner with GK to donate 10 percent of their sales from the week to raise money for and awareness about our services. To learn more about Dining with Gratitude or to join our forces as a participating restaurant, click here.
Our newest signature event, Sunday Supper at Serenbe debuted in 2017 from a paddle raise at Team Hidi 5. This beautiful evening of wine, tastings and music is an experience you won't soon forget, which is why we added it as an annual event for the foreseeable future. To learn more about Sunday Supper at Serenbe, click here.
The Pinky is a one-of-a-kind golf tournament held at the East Lake Golf Club the Friday before Thanksgiving in honor of Willy Cellucci, who lost his battle with cancer in 2013. The Pinky, like Team Hidi, began as a fundraiser to help him through his treatments and has evolved into an epic day to celebrate his life and raise money to help other food service workers. To learn more about The Pinky, click here.
Third-Party Event Sponsorship
From Ramen Fest to the Burger Battle, there's a GK-serving third-party event hosted almost every weekend. For a listing of all Giving Kitchen third-party events, please see our events calendar. If you're interested in supporting Giving Kitchen by hosting a third party event, please complete our Join our Forces form.
Cause Marketing PARTNERSHIPS
Every so often we partner with a company to co-brand a special product. We're always interested in hearing a proposal, but please know, we're a little picky because we want the best for our brand. Speaking of the best, have you heard about our amazing partnership with SweetWater Brewing Company to serve up a Second Helping of delicious IPA.

How to Read Supplement Labels/
This morning on Edmonton's CTV Morning Live, I chatted about how to read supplement labels. What's important on the label and how do you know if you're getting a quality natural health product?
1) Natural Product Number - The "NPN" is issued by Health Canada after a supplement has gone through an application process. Products with NPN's contain ingredients that are deemed to be safe and legal in Canada and are of a certain degree of quality. The NPN also allows the consumer extra protection if anything goes wrong with the product. Health Canada has a reporting system for products with an NPN that cause unexpected reactions or allergies.
2) Additives - good additives include things like Soy Lecithin. This isn't the scary soy that messes with your hormones, this is the specific lecithin molecule that can aid digestion and bring down cholesterol. Lecithin increases absorption of antioxidant compounds in the gut by 15%. My favourite product with lecithin? Greens Plus Organic by Genuine Health.
3) Extracts - good quality products will have standardized extracts in them. Plants have many active ingredients in them and the ingredient that has the most research for a given health effect is usually what the extract is standardized to include. When you get standardized extracts in your supplements, you're ensuring that you're getting exactly what you paid for and of a reasonable amount, not just something that's on the ingredients list so that it can say it's on the ingredients list for fun. I call this fairy dusting. No fairy dusting allowed, ONLY standardized extracts with known quantities of active ingredients.
4) Additives - BAD additives are things like artificial flavours or colours. "Artificial flavour" as a term could mean anything. The term is regulated to include a variety of chemicals that you DO NOT want in your body! Artificial colours can be carcinogenic depending on what dyes they include.
5) Health washing - this is marketing labelling designed to trick you. The word "natural" is not regulated. Sugar is "natural" and that does NOT mean it is good for you. Regulated terms include organic, fair trade and sometimes gluten free. Don't get fooled by excellent marketing. Only allow your buying decisions to be influenced by products carrying third party seals of approval certifying these products are "organic" or "gluten free".
Buying and choosing supplements is tricky. Your Naturopathic Doctor or health care provider can help you decide which supplements are best for you based on your unique health condition and your needs.

"Copenhagen scarf was created by combining a big number of colourful elastics. The pattern was born after playing with pieces and spreading them freely on the floor. The result has similarities to a fish net which is a nice link thinking that the city is surrounded by water. "
Twill silk is a type of textile weaves with a pattern of diagonal parallel ribs. This is done by passing the thread over one or more warp threads and then under two or more warp threads and so on, with a "step" between rows to create the characteristic diagonal pattern.

The immigration changes implemented by New Zealand in July 2017 will result in the scarcity of Caregivers in the nation. The changes were aimed at managing the numbers and quality of immigrants arriving in New Zealand. One of the policies was to force Temporary Work Visa workers to exit for minimum 1 year after staying 3 years in the nation.
The Aged Care Association in New Zealand is lobbying with the Government to remove the changes. It is demanding for the removal of the stand-down for 1 year for those with Provisional Work Visas.
Christine Bulosan the Caregiver with Myrna Wooding a resident of New Zealand that she will not return here. This is if she has to exit to the Philippines for 1 year, as quoted by the Stuff Co NZ.
The CEO of Aged Care Association in New Zealand Simon Wallace said that qualified caregivers will be forced to exit the nation. This is even if some other is unavailable to fill the vacancy, he added. The Government has said that these workers can return after 1 year. But the fact is that most of them will not do so. They will seek other nations, said Wallace.
The home industry is expanding and projections reveal that extra 1000 caregivers are needed annually till 2026 said, Simon Wallace. 70% of the workers in the sector are New Zealanders. However, remaining vacancies cannot be filled by them, he added.
The New Zealand labor market lacks the required workers to cater to the market needs said, Simon. The immigration changes are not helping either with retention or recruitment, he added.
Andrew Sheard Director of Dementia Care New Zealand said that the nation has a comparatively lower unemployment rate. There is a just a small group of workers interested to be employed in the aged residential care sector, he added.
Y-Axis offers a wide range of visa and immigration services as well as products to the aspiring overseas immigrants including Y-International Resume 0-5 yrs, Y-International Resume (Senior Level) 5+ yrs, Y Jobs, Y-Path, Resume Marketing Services One State and One Country.

11 Questions That Can Boost Your Self-Awareness and Improve Your Leadership Skills
Successful leaders know how to talk, listen and relate to other people. They can read body language, are thoughtful, have a healthy sense of self-esteem, continually engage with their employees, and are commited to creating a healthy, sustainable company culture.
The more self-aware you are as a leader, the better. That's because if you understand why you respond or think the way you do, you can improve your decision-making and communicate more effectively with others (you can read more about this in my last blog post).
Here are 11 questions to ask that can boost your self-awareness and improve your leadership skills:
- How much do you know about "soft skills," aka people skills? Which skills do you possess?
- Has a boss or mentor ever said anything negative about your people skills?
- Does your boss have horrible, OK, or awesome people skills? How does it affect your relationship?
- Do you ever stop yourself and ask, "Why do I feel this way?" when you are about to react strongly to a situation?
- Do you think of yourself as a "people person?" Do others?
- What people skills would your boss, employees, or team members say you possess?
- Do you place more emphasis on money, success, and power than developing healthy relationships?
- Are you comfortable asking for and receiving feedback?
- Do you ask for input and then ignore what you hear?
- Do you care what other people think of you?
- Are you happy? How can you improve your happiness?
At the end of the day, being a good leader is not that hard. It might take some work, but the effort will reap tremendous results. What steps do you regularly take to improve your leadership skills?
What could you do over the next month to improve your self-awareness? How could you improve one skill that would positively impact your leadership "soft skills?"

The European Commission opened on March 19 a formal investigation to assess whether German grid operator TenneT's limitation of capacity from Western Denmark into Germany breaches EU antitrust rules, the EU's competition chief said.
"Energy should flow freely in Europe so that the electricity produced by a windmill in one country can reach the consumers in another," said Competition Policy Commissioner Margrethe Vestager. "Our investigation into TenneT is part of our efforts to ensure that electricity grid operators do not unjustifiably restrict the free flow of electricity between Member States, to the detriment of European energy consumers. Ensuring that electricity interconnectors remain fully open to cross-border trade is essential to achieve our overall objective of an efficient, sustainable and competitive energy market," she added.
According to the Commission, the investigation will focus on indications that TenneT may be reducing the amount of transmission capacity available on the electricity interconnector at the border between Western Denmark and Germany.
If proven, this behaviour may breach EU antitrust rules, specifically on the abuse of a dominant market position, as it would amount to discrimination against non-German electricity producers and to a segmentation of the Single Market for energy, the Commission said.
On March 19, the EC also sent to TenneT its preliminary assessment setting out in further detail its competition concerns. The Commission and TenneT are engaged in constructive discussions on commitments to address those concerns.
The investigation into TenneT complements the Commission's effort to address the systematic limitation of cross-border capacity on electricity interconnectors across the EU. An opening of a formal investigation does not prejudge its outcome.

A short car ride from Casa Badiola are some of Italy's loveliest beaches, stretching for 130 kilometers. This stunning section of the Tyrrhenian coastline is traditionally awarded the "blue flag" each year due to the crystal-clear waters and the eco-sustainability of the coastal area.

Casa Badiola is part of the L'Andana estate and offers families the chance to settle in and spread out. Its very fuss-free living space includes perfect little kitchenettes, making it perfect for families. There is an excellent kids club which is a great base for the children to come and go. With the main LAndana hotel just steps away and available for all guests offers plenty of pampering potential, thanks to its indulgent spa and two restaurants. Dining with the children' couldn't be easier with Highchairs available, and the chef will happily adapt dishes for childrens tastes. A children's menu (simple pastas, fried vegetables, rice dishes, chicken nuggets and so on) is served in both restaurants.
Charlotte Austin (Staff)
Family's will feel very relaxed here and have the opportunity to experience the true Tuscan way of life. The views from Casa Badiola are undisturbed towards the driving range and rolling hills beyond. Whilst guests are more than welcome to dine in the hotel restaurants they are also encouraged to sample the local establishments meaning hiring a car is key. The drive to the hotel from Pisa (recommended) or Rome is fairly straightforward. Many of the staff have worked at the hotel for some time and are extremely efficiently and friendly. Their passion for the property and Tuscany in generally soon starts to rub off on you!
Charlotte Austin (Staff)
Driving up to the Tenuta Badiola is stunning, the tree lined driveway is breathtaking as there is nothing else like it in that area. The food and the service were impeccable and it was very enjoyable to be around all of the lovely staff. If you do ever get bored of all of the activities at the estate then it is only a 5 minute drive to the beach. I would definitely recommend car hire to make the most of the area, being only 150km from Florence, 80km from Pisa and 150km from Arezzo all with plenty of sightseeing and fantastic food
Fiona Bickmore (Staff)
The west of Tuscany is still very rural and untouristy. Lots of avenues lined with Cyprus trees and beautiful big old farm houses. L'Andana is the only hotel of its kind in the area so a very popular option. Spend your days lazing by the pool or for more active you can explore the nearby villages and national parks. In the evenings either indulge in the michelin star restaurant or dine al fresco at the hotels restaurant - either are very special.
Location & directions
Maremma, Tuscany, Italy
Casa Badiola is in Maremma, one of the most fertile parts of Tuscany, with extensive pastureland and vast stretches of woods, olive groves and vineyards. It occupies a fair part of southern Tuscany and most of the province of Grosseto with its 130km of coastline. The delightful seaside town of Castiglione della Pescaia is 15mins.

Alarm.com ExaminedBy: John Honovich, Published on Jul 27, 2009
Alarm.com is expanding into the video surveillance market with a hosted video offering similar to Axis STS. With 200,000 current customers and 800 dealers, Alarm.com is leveraging its foothold in the security monitoring market to expand into video surveillance. The video service was launched in November 2008.
The service consists of a series of IP cameras (basic, budget class indoor, outdoor and PTZ cameras) with special firmware loaded to automatically connect the cameras to Alarm.com's monitoring center and provide remote recording and client viewing. Alarm.com seeks to differentiate from tighter integration with its security monitoring services (for video verification, etc) and lower prices (since it is leveraging an existing monitoring center and customer base. While Alarm.com declined to share prices publicly, the price levels they cited to me were significantly lower than any video centric hosting provider (e.g., ByRemote, Secure-i, etc.) even for similar entry level packages. Alarm.com also offers a number of mobile viewing/remote control options that is consistent with the broader trend of many hosted providers.
Alarm.com's pricing tends to be fairly inexpensive yet more constrained on storage provided. Additionally, the pricing varies based on whether the customer is bundling video with alarm monitoring or is purchasing video only.
For video only, up to 4 cameras and 50 MB of storage has a $19.95 MSRP per month (note: unlike most providers, Alarm.com does not price per camera). Up to 8 cameras and 250 MB of storage is $29.95 MSRP per month. When bundled with alarm monitoring (the more common approach), the MSRP is $10 less. Cameras are sold separately.
Alarm.com only sells through dealers, ending its direct customer sales 2 years ago. Earlier this year, MicroStrategy, the previous majority shareholder sold their stake in Alarm.com for $27.7M USD.

A pressure measurement has a range of 0-100 psig, a normal operating pressure of 50 psig, and a high alarm setpoint of 60 psig. There is some noise on the measurement as shown in the figure.
Which of the following would be the best choice for the alarm deadband setting on the high alarm?
a) 10%
b) 5%
c) 2%
d) 1%
e) none of the above
Answer A, 10% is not the best choice as it is the difference between normal operation and the high alarm condition, so the high alarm will not clear until the pressure has dropped below 50 psig.
Answer B, 5% is not the best choice as it is more than twice the signal noise and a significant part of the range between normal operation and the high alarm condition.
Answer D, 1% is not the best choice as it is less than the signal noise and will likely create a chattering alarm.
The correct answer is C, 2%, as the noise is under 2%

A tattoo artist's walk on the Vip side
Text: CDLC.CO
Photos: Matti Tirronen
You wouldn't believe that a guy who has some what five other car projects and does tattoos would have time to build something like this? Well Junnu seems to have. When does this guy sleep?
What artists commonly share, is the urge to stand out. That is one of the reasons why Janne 'Junnu' Thusberg decided to build possibly the best Vip build here in Finland. A proper Vip car is a random sight here, nevertheless a car with as many custom modifications as this one has. And all the modifications are done with preciseness and care. The Toyota Crown Majesta UZS151 platform was new and old enough at the same time for the following modifications. Also the body is super rare, as it has been manufactured only on one year in the history of Crown Majestas. Even though it might seem that a very strict Vip pattern is followed here, Junnu is building this constantly evolving build just to satisfy his vision. But as you can see, there's lots of influence and inspiration received from the East.
When you see this car in person you immediately notice the large wheels and the on-point-fitment. The wheel arches have been raised around 50 to 80 millimeters around. The rear door have been modified and the steel arches and the custom bumbers are all Junnu's design. This way the large body rests on the ground and still keeps the wheels not tucking too much. The front bumber is a fusion of the original and surprisingly, a Toyota Hiace's bumber. The rear features Crown Majesta led lights and a custom Lexus Ls bumber. The car was painted with the purest white possible, Toyota Super White, with a dash of black to accent the pureness.
The interior is custom of course, made at TiCaBo. The interior is paired with an Altezza steering wheel, SK-Autosound hifis: Boston top end 2-ways, DLS A7 and JL Audio sub.
Nothing but the best in the chassis. Lots of modifications to improve the geometry. Accuair E-Level, Air Zenith compressor, all provided by the trusty Lowtoys.
The wheels are from, surprise surprise, a small set of 500 ever made SSR Agles. Both ends repping negative offsets to space them out aggressively. To bring out the wheels, Junnu installed K-Sport big brake kit with custom machined faces. Also Junnu's logo can be found from around and inside the car.
Details matter.
This car might seem finished and perfect. But from the quick chat I had with Junnu, he seemed to have lots of plans already.
