Sponsored Post: Small Business in the Big Leagues: A Project Management Tool is Your MVP
Understaffed, overworked, and stressed out, "small business" doesn't mean "less work". On the contrary, SMB employees are often expected to embrace the role of two or three people to keep their company in the game.
As the world moves faster, small businesses are keeping up with the big dogs by bringing a new player onto their teams: a cloud project management tool.
Here are 3 ways a cloud project management tool like Wrike will help your small business step up its game:
1. Better Management: It tracks work responsibilities so you don't have to.
"I thought you were going to do that?"
"No, you said YOU were going to do that!"
Accessible communication is usually not a problem when you have a small team. What is a problem is remembering what's been said and decided. When a task accidentally slips through the cracks, meetings can quickly devolve into arguments and finger pointing between stressed and overloaded teammates.
Creating and assigning every task in a project management tool means that everyone knows who's responsible for work. If you forget who's working on what, or you need a progress update, the tool points you in the right direction.
Meetings stay productive, and no one can deflect responsibility when the tool shows the truth.
Best practice tip: Keep your project management tool open during your meetings to assign or reassign tasks as you discuss them.
2. Better Productivity: It helps you escape the inbox black hole.
Ever open up your inbox to reference a conversation, sigh in frustration ("10 new unread emails? Really?"), and spend the next hour sorting through the noise? Or suffer the painful task of looking for an email attachment you swear someone sent to you, if only you could find it?
Project management tools like Wrike keep important discussions right next to their relevant tasks, instead of getting lost in "she forgot to reply-all" email threads. Same with attachments — they're glued to the tasks they belong with.
The right project management tool makes it easy to immediately find the information you need to keep work going.
No unnecessary and distracting dives into the inbox.
3. Increased Agility: It gives you back hours in your day.
Overcoming size limitations one of the toughest challenges that small businesses face. "We're small. We're understaffed. We have lots of great ideas, but we lack the time and manpower to get them done." Your team wants to work faster so you can get more done, but it's hard without the right tools in place.
Adopting a project management tool adds hours to your week. It eliminates the time wasted when employees have to check in to ask, "What's next? Who's next? I forget, now what?" If you load all upcoming tasks into a project management system, you and your colleagues can switch from one priority to the next without unnecessary downtime. Work moves faster and your team will be more efficient so they can finally get to that "when we have time" assignment. It's like bringing on another pair of hands.

Cloud project management software is changing the way the business game is played. Wrike is helping stressed and overworked SMBs stay on top of every project and actually get work done faster for better business results.

Last Day In Vietnam
Based on what we've gathered here from the witnesses, I'm quite surprised at how consistent it is with the description from the US soldier who fought in Vietnam. Well aside from the guy whose description sounded like a man who hasn't bathed, or shaved in years.
The initial drawing I did, didn't really change much based on the descriptions. BUT, based on my experience in the jungle, the terrain gave Steve and I a few ideas on how this Beast would live, how it would move. Which directed us in making a few modifications to make this Wildman walk like us but be at ease and able to move around quickly and undetected in this thick jungle.

With the new fiscal year fast approaching, we take a look at the 10 most anticipated upcoming cars that are expected to arrive in India this year. Most carmakers will be hoping that the momentum generated in 2015 will continue into the new year. Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Make In India campaign has helped greatly as it has successfully created a buzz among carmakers with huge foreign investments expected to be made in the near future. India's growing auto sector is likely to face yet another boom as the country moves towards becoming a leading manufacturing and export hub. Effects of India's already improved production ecosystem are already evident as can be observed by the launch of the made-in-India Suzuki Baleno in Japan. This is the first time that the Japanese manufacturer is selling made in India variants on its home soil.
More and more foreign automakers are spending big in India which should see localisation, productivity, job opportunities and export figures soar. The Auto Expo saw record footfall and a host of upcoming vehicles were displayed which indicates that the thriving Indian auto industry is set to grow in leaps and bounds over the next couple of years despite tighter emissions regulations coming in to play in order to combat the alarming pollution levels.
2015 did end on a blip as the automotive industry was rocked by a series of emission scandals both in India and internationally. This includes Volkswagen's use of emissions cheating devices in its diesel offerings sold all over the world as well as the ban on sales of diesel cars with engine capacities more than 2,000cc in New Delhi. Nevertheless, carmakers are surging ahead with their launch plans to ensure that 2016 is as successful if not more successful than 2015. Here's a list of the top 10 upcoming cars expected in India this year.
1. Maruti Alto 800 Facelift
(Maruti Suzuki Alto 800 Facelift / Photo Credit: GaadiWaadi)
Maruti's popular A segment hatchback, Alto 800 is up for its first mid-cycle upgrade. The mini-hatchback was snapped at a stock-yard sans camouflage, hinting at an imminent launch. This would be the first facelift for the Alto 800 in four years after its launch in India. Going by the leaked image of the tweaked version, it seems the hatchback has received subtle cosmetic changes with most of the revisions made to the front profile. In front, the hatchback gets revamped head lamps featuring yellow lens on the turn indicators and chrome surrounds. Grille is smaller in size now and the new bumper gets trapezoidal air intake along with a provision for fog lamps, something the first gen model missed out on. Nothing much has changed on the side and rear profile. Cabin is likely to be inspired from the Alto K10 featuring dual tone colour tone, 2-DIN audio system with AUX connectivity and a revised instrument cluster.
The hatchback will not get any mechanical tweak and will continue to draw power from the 796cc, three cylinder, petrol engine pumping out 47bhp at 6000rpm and 69Nm torque at 3500rpm. Transmission duties will be carried out by the similar five-speed manual gearbox that is available in the current version. On the price front, the hatchback is expected to get a subtle price hike, nothing prominent though. Expected to launch later this month, the Alto 800 facelift will be pitted against Renault Kwid, Datsun redi GO and Hyundai Eon in the budget segment.
Maruti Alto 800 Expected Launch: First week of June
Maruti Alto 800 Expected Price: 2.60 lakh to 2.85 lakh
2. Datsun redi GO
(Datsun redi-GO)
Unveiled globally at an event in Delhi,Datsun redi-GO is one of the highly anticipated upcoming cars in India. The near production version revealed lately bears strong resemblance to the concept version showcased at the 2014 Auto Expo. Expected to be placed below Renault Kwid in terms of price, redi GO is based on the same CMF-A platform underpinned by its French cousin. Datsun however has given different treatment to the exteriors and redi-GO does not look like Kwid, even the interiors get a different design. On the outside, redi GO features sharp pulled back head lamps, Datsun's signature hexagonal grille with chrome surrounding, sharp lines on side panels and a modishly styled rear. Inside the cabin, there is decent space for occupants, although, styling is a bit suave. There is no touchscreen inside unlike Kwid which gets one and quality of plastic seems compromised to cut down on pricing.
Power will come from the same 800cc petrol engine which currently serves Kwid putting out 50bhp and 100Nm. The engine is expected to come mated to a five-speed manual gearbox, Datsun may introduce an AMT unit later on. The hatchback is already available for bookings and deliveries are likely to commence in June.
Datsun redi-GO Expected Launch: June 2016
Datsun redi-GO Expected Price: 2.5 lakh to 3.5 lakh
3. Tata Kite 5 / Tiago Sedan
(Tata Kite 5 Sedan)
Now that bookings for the Tata Tiago have begun, its sedan twin is likely to follow closely in its footsteps and will arrive in India the following sometime soon. The sedan version of the Tiago was showcased in production guise at the Delhi Auto Expo 2016 bearing the Kite 5 moniker. Judging by the fact that both cars share the same platform, the Tata Kite 5 will likely arrive with similar interiors and powertrain options.
The Kite 5 looks quite contemporary in terms of design and the show car that we saw at the expo was kitted out with the Tiago's well thought out interior. In the subcompact sedan segment, it does seem to tick all the right boxes, especially if launched at a competitive price point. Tata's new Kite 5 subcompact sedan will sit below the Tata Zest in the company's product line and will likely be available with a choice of 3-cylinder petrol and diesel engine units. The 1.2-litre petrol Revotron engine, also used in the Bolt and Zest will pump out 83bhp and 114Nm of torque whereas the 3-pot, 1.05-litre diesel unit is rated at 67bhp and 140Nm of torque.
The Tata Tiago-based Kite 5 sedan was showcased at Auto Expo 2016
Although the Tiago will launch solely featuring a 5-speed manual gearbox, the Kite 5's later launch date could possibly mean that it will arrive with both a 5-speed manual transmission variant and an AMT variant. The subcompact sedan will rival the Ford Figo Aspire, Maruti Suzuki Swift DZire, Honda Amaze, Hyundai Xcent, and upcoming Volkswagen Ameo and should arrive in India by the festive season.
Tata Kite 5 Expected Launch: October, 2016
Tata Kite 5 Expected Price: 4.5 lakh – 5.5 lakh
4. Maruti Suzuki Baleno RS
(Maruti Suzuki Baleno RS)
Indian small car specialist, Maruti Suzuki, unveiled the new and sportier version of it increasingly popular Baleno hatchback called the Baleno RS, at last month's Auto Expo. The differences between the standard and RS version will not be limited to just cosmetic updates as the RS version will come fitted with the much awaited 1.0-litre BoosterJet, direct injection, turbo petrol engine unit. The 3-pot unit is capable of putting out 112bhp and 175Nm of peak torque. Upon its launch, the Baleno RS will join India's growing list of 100+ bhp hatchbacks which currently includes the Volkwsagen Polo GT, Fiat Abarth Punto and Ford Figo. The RS edition will only be available on the top-spec Alpha trim.
Besides featuring a host of cosmetic add-ons in the form of its aggressive body kit, the Baleno RS will also get better interiors. Improvements will include minimal chrome inserts, all-black theme, sporty front seats with cross stitched upholstery, and aluminium finish pedals. The car will arrive sometime around the upcoming festive season.
Maruti Suzuki Baleno RS Expected Launch: October, 2016
Maruti Suzuki Baleno RS Expected Price: 9 lakh – 10 lakh
(Volkswagen Polo GTI)
Now that India seems to have woken up and taken notice of the growing need of small, fast cars, India is likely to receive a gem of a present in the form of the insanely quick Volkswagen Polo GTI. The German carmaker set the trend of hot hatchbacks when it introduced the 105bhp Polo GT but is now ready to push the boundaries and launch the GT's power-crazed twin. Packed with a 1.8-litre TSI turbocharged petrol unit, the Polo GTI puts out a whopping 190bhp and 250Nm of torque which means that it can do a 0-100km/h sprint in just 6.7 seconds! In terms of transmission, the engine will be mated to the same 7-speed DSG autobox that's available with the Volkswagen Vento and Polo GT. The car features mild cosmetic differences from its comparatively pedestrian twin such as the signature red highlight line on the front grille which runs into its LED headlamps, GTI-specific rear spoiler, sporty bumpers, red brake calipers and GTI insignia, new alloy designs, and LED fog-lamps. Volkswagen will initially sell the GTI in its 3-door form although a 5-door version may arrive at a later time. Alas, the sad part is that unlike the locally manufactured GT, the Polo GTI willarrive as a CBU and is hence expected to cost a pretty penny. The car will roll out in India in September, 2016.
Volkswagen Polo GTI Expected Launch: September, 2016
Volkswagen Polo GTI Expected Price: 18 lakh – 20 lakh
6. Volkswagen Ameo
(Volkswagen Ameo)
Among the various upcoming cars in India for this year, Volkswagen Ameo holds prime significance as it has various firsts to its credit with most important being the first ever compact sedan from Volkswagen for the Indian market.In an event prior to the Auto Expo, Volkswagen globally unveiled its made-in-India, made-for-India Volkswagen Ameo subcompact sedan after which the car was showcased at the German manufacturers pavilion at Auto Expo 2016. Based on the Polo hatchback, the Ameo is the company's first compact sedan offering in India and also boasts of the highest percentage of localisation in Volkswagen's Indian product portfolio.
Volkswagen Ameo subcompact sedan
In terms of looks, the car is very similar to the Polo, particularly at the front. The square tail-lamp clusters at the back are similar to those found in the Polo and new Vento. Engine options are the same as those found on the Polo which includes a 1.2-litre petrol and a 1.5-litre diesel option. The gearbox too has been carried forwards from the Polo as the Ameo will come with a 5-speed manual gearbox and a 7-speed DSG autobox which will be available on the diesel variant.
Volkswagen Ameo Expected Launch: August, 2016
Volkswagen Ameo Expected Price: 5.5 lakh – 8.5 lakh
7. Honda Accord
(New Honda Accord)
Once upon a time, the Honda Accord was one of India's favourite sedan car offerings as not only was it supremely comfortable on-road but was a great car to drive as well, especially the powerful V6 variant. However the lack of a diesel option as well as the introduction of better value competitors like the Toyota Camry and Skoda Superb steadily ate into its market share and eventually, the company was forced to discontinue the model back in 2013.
Despite the category having dried up and lost ground to the more popular SUV segment, the last few years have shown inklings of the once popular segment picking up steam yet again. The Camry Hybrid for example, has been quite successful in India, Based on the Camry Hybrid's success, Honda will revitalize the Accord brand in India and will not repeat last time's mistakes as it will bring the hybrid version of the Accord from the very start.
The facelifted Accord looks sporty and premium and comes packed with a 2.0-litre petrol engine that is paired with a lithium-ion battery pack powered electric unit. The gasoline engine makes 141bhp but when combined with the electric motor, the total output of the sedan is rated at 196bhp with a peak torque figure of 306Nm. The engine will come mated with an electronic CVT autobox designed specifically to handle its high torque figure. A 189bhp, 2.4-litre petrol model may also arrive at the same time paired with the same CVT transmission box. The 3.5-litre V6 may arrive at a future date depending on market reaction and customer feedback. Expect the new Accord to arrive sometime in mid-2016.
Honda Accord Expected Launch: Mid-2016
Honda Accord Expected Price: 28 lakh – 32 lakh
8. Tata Nexon
Tata unveiled the production ready iteration of its upcoming Nexon subcompact SUV at Auto Expo 2016. Developed on the X1 platform, the good looking and well proportioned car will be positioned between the Zest and Safari Storme in Tata's range. The car's design both on the inside and outside, borrows heavily from the Tiago hatchback. The contemporary coupe-like design and aggressive styling makes it one of the highly awaited upcoming cars in India.
(Tata Nexon Subcompact SUV)
Upon its launch, the Tata Nexon (codename: Osprey) will compete with the likes of the Ford EcoSport, Mahindra TUV300, and upcoming Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza. The car was initially thought be powered by a Fiat-sourced 1.3-litre diesel unit that currently powers many other hatchbacks like the Swift, although new reports have suggested that Tata is planning on fitting it with a more powerful 1.5-litre diesel unit. This punchy new engine is good for 108bhp and 260Nm of torque and will likely come mated to a 6-speed manual gearbox. A 1.2-litre Revotron petrol option will also be available. The engine currently features on the Tata Zest and churns out 89bhp and 140Nm of torque.
Tata Nexon Expected Launch: October, 2016
Tata Nexon Expected Price: 7 lakh – 10 lakh
9. Tata Hexa
Tata is all set to create chaos in the people carrier market when it launches is Innova Crysta competitor called the Tata Hexa. On the outside, the car looks to be a heavily reworked and better styled version of the Tata Aria. Upon its launch, the Aria replacement will sit above the Safari and will become the Indian manufacturer's flagship model in India.
(Tata Hexa Tuff Concept)
The Tata Hexa features a muscular design template, Tata's signature honeycomb mesh front grille, a redesigned air dam, and projector head-lamps. The sporty element to its styling is further accentuated by its horizontal LED tail-lamp clusters, huge wheel arches with rubber wrapped 19 inch alloys sat inside them, and blacked out door pillars. The cabin features a host of intelligent driver aids, an intelligent media system, premium quality materials as well as 2 individual bucket seats in the middle row. The 6-seater Hexa SUV comes equipped with ESP, ambient lighting, 6 airbags, auto head-lamps, and rain-sensing wipers.
Power is derived from a 2.2-litre diesel unit sourced from the Safari Storme VARICOR 400. The engine makes 154bhp and 400Nm of torque and is paired with a 6-speed manual gearbox.
Tata Hexa Expected Launch: Mid-2016
Tata Hexa Expected Price: 13 lakh – 18 lakh
10. Maruti Suzuki Ignis
Auto Expo 2016 saw Maruti Suzuki unveil its upcoming Ignis subcompact crossover-SUV. Set to compete in a relatively new segment of sub-4 metre SUV-styled cars, the Maruti Suzuki Ignis will maily compete with the recently launched Mahindra KUV100. The car features tall proportions and a heavily stylized front fascia which includes large U-shaped LED DRLs in the head-lamp units that are infused with the front grille.
(Maruti Suzuki Ignis)
Based on the details obtained from the Japanese-spec model, the Ignis' SUV-like traits should include flared wheelarches, a 180mm ground clearance, and Suzuki's All Grip AWD system. Electronic features will include a USB and Bluetooth equipped media system, Suzuki's adaptive Dual Camera Braking System (DCBS), lane management system, hill decent control, and camera equipped front and rear parking sensors. ABS and EBD will be available as standard as will dual front airbags. Power will be sourced from its 1.3-litre engine although a 1.2-litre offering may also be in the pipeline. Transmission duties will likely be performed by either a 5-speed manual gearbox or a CVT unit. At the expo, Maruti Suzuki confirmed that the Ignis was likely to arrive during the festive season.
Maruti Suzuki Ignis Expected Launch: October, 2016
Maruti Suzuki Ignis Expected Price: 4 lakh – 5.5 lakh


text: Hello everyone, I just wanted to update on the Hold me Up thread. About an hour ago the court called and informed me that Daughters emergency protective order against the three creeps has been granted. So, Im leaving work early so we can drive to the courthouse about 30 miles away and pick up the papers in order for the three individuals to be served. I was so relieved when we went yesterday and the papers were all filled out correctly when we filed. I went Friday, and the girl there was very nice and showed me what I needed to do. Its rather complicated when it is more than one person. Of course, we still have to go to court to make this long term, but at least it is a start. Im just taking it one step at a time. Daughter has mixed feelings. She still has relationships with friends that are still in school and know this will be talked about. She fears retaliation from others on these little monsters behalf. In fact, we expressed this fear in the papers because of what happened before when I went to the parents. She is fearful about facing them even though they cannot approach her. On the other hand, I really think she needs to tell her story to the judge and have the other parents hear it. I so hope it is empowering for her as these individuals have shaken her confidence to the core. As a mother, well, I feel mostly determined with a bit of homicidal thrown in for good measure. Also, the story has a very bizarre twist. The Main Culprit (MC) in all of this offered alcohol to Son. Unfortunately, it took a few days to get the story straight as Son is not very good at relating a situation the way it really happened. Im not sure whether or not to call the police about it. So much time has gone by. It really was a freak meeting and she was out by the side of a road where my Son was playing at a friends house drinking and she offered Son some. She also made a vulgar comment about Daughter. It was last week though and Im not sure whether I should go to the police or not. I certainly didnt want to do anything until I had this protective order in place. Im also picking up the papers to sue for damages. So, that is the status for now.

I have to say a long overdue thank you to TSB I graduated in 2000 and have loved my profession ever since! I can proudly say I own my own home and have built an amazing clientele (booked about a month out)!!! I really owe it to the instructors for always pushing us to do better and to be a step ahead, it has really paid off! I now live in Miami, Oklahoma and have been doing hair for 11 years. Wow time sure does fly. I work at the best salon in the county voted 2 yrs in a row! Thanks again for the best education!!
You're probably not familiar with my companies, or even my name, but you've seen my work on the magazines that you look at with your clients every day to use as reference points for new hair styles, fashion and make-up application.
Showing my 12-year old daughter that she can do and be anything she wants. Follow your dreams. And establishing my business.
TSB had a speaker who was a TSB grad and a famous make-up/stylist to the stars. It was incredible to hear how he had succeeded. He talked to our class about always following our dreams. It was inspirational.
I get the opportunity to be with various personalities. From the employees to the clients, every day becomes a fabulous experience and I never wish the hours in a day to be over.
Partnerships …it's all about partnerships. My wife and business partner Mary, and I were Tennessee School of Beauty "sweethearts". We all knew that TSB supported us as we grew in the industry. Now as salon owners we have a strong partnership with TSB, teaching classes for their students and relying on them as a excellent recruits for our salon. Thank you TSB.
Master hairstylist Phillip Ivey has won an Oscar and been nominated five times for an Emmy. None of these awards, he says, is more precious than being inducted into the Tennessee School of Beauty Hall of fame in 2003. He has also garnered an Academy Award as part of the hair and makeup department of 'Driving Miss Daisy' which also snagged Oscars for Best Picture and Best Actress (Jessica Tandy).
Salon Visage has been successfully hiring TSB graduates for 25 years, and plan on hiring them for the next 25. Need I say more?
Tennessee School of Beauty graduates have always been very well prepared. Their excellent work performance is a direct result of the instructors' hard work and strong focus. We have hired many of their students and have long been impressed by their work ethics.

The California Attorney General has published a Frequently Asked Questions page to help inform students and the public about Corinthian Colleges and its chain of campuses.
Corinthian Colleges have shut down all of its ground campuses, displacing about 16,000 students, amid allegations of fraud. Six of the colleges were located in the Bay Area, including San Francisco, Concord, Hayward and San Jose.
Corinthian was one of the country's largest for-profit educational institutions. It collapsed last summer amid a cash shortage and fraud allegations.
- What is Corinthian Colleges?
Corinthian Colleges is a for-profit company offering postsecondary education through its Heald, Everest, and WyoTech schools.
Heald College has campuses in San Francisco, Concord, Hayward, San Jose/Milpitas, Salinas, Rancho Cordova, Fresno, Stockton, Modesto/Salida, and Roseville. Everest College has campuses in: San Bernardino, Santa Ana, Alhambra, Reseda, Gardena, City of Industry, Ontario, Ontario Metro, Torrance, Anaheim, and Los Angeles. WyoTech has campuses in Long Beach and Fremont. Everest Online enrolls students statewide.
Together, these schools have enrolled tens of thousands of Californians.
- Why is the Attorney General suing Corinthian?
The Attorney General's lawsuit alleges that Corinthian has violated consumer protection and securities laws. For example, Corinthian misrepresented job placement rates to students and investors, advertised for programs that it did not offer, and subjected students to unlawful debt collection practices. The Attorney General filed the lawsuit in October 2013, and the case is still in progress. To learn more about the complaint, you can visit the Attorney General's Press Release.
To download a copy of the most recent complaint, you can visit First Amended Complaint.
- What is the latest update on the Attorney General's lawsuit against Corinthian?
The Attorney General's Office is in the process of obtaining additional documents from Corinthian and taking testimony of Corinthian employees and other witnesses.
In addition, on June 27, 2014, the Attorney General filed a supplemental complaint that added several allegations and asked a court to force Corinthian to tell the truth to students it was attempting to enroll. The Attorney General alleges that these omissions violate false advertising and unfair competition laws. To learn more about these allegations, you can visit the Attorney General's Press Release.
- I heard that Corinthian sold or closed all of its campuses. How do those events affect the lawsuit?
There is no immediate impact. The Attorney General is committed to holding Corinthian Colleges accountable for its unlawful behavior, including the fraudulent misrepresentations it made to California students.
- Do I have an individual claim against Corinthian Colleges?
Our office cannot give you legal advice or represent you. If you believe that you might have a claim against Corinthian Colleges, you might consider contacting an attorney to explore your options. For referral to a lawyer, you may contact the State Bar at (866) 442-2529 (toll-free in California) or (415) 538-2250 (from outside California), or through its website at: http://www.calbar.ca.gov. If you cannot afford to pay an attorney, you may consider contacting your local legal aid office. For a referral, visit http://www.lsc.gov and click on the Find Legal Assistance tab, or go to http://lawhelpca.org.
- I have questions about whether I am entitled to restitution under the 2007 settlement with Corinthian. Who can I contact?
If you believe that you might have been eligible for a payment under the 2007 settlement with Corinthian, please contact Gilardi and Co. at (877) 217-0340 or email firstname.lastname@example.com and include the case name in the subject line. If you have other questions or concerns about the 2007 Corinthian settlement, you can contact our office atConsumer Complaints to the Attorney General.
- I am a current or former student of one of the Corinthian Colleges (Everest, Heald, WyoTech). How does the sale or closure affect me?
The Attorney General is committed to helping victims get the relief they deserve. Current and former Corinthian students have rights under the law, including, for some, the right to get their money back.
To help students find out more about their rights and how to protect them, the Attorney General has created the following tool: https://oag.ca.gov/corinthiantool. Use the tool to learn about your rights and how to apply for relief, along with people nearby who can help you in person.

"some kind of weird Doppler effect"
by JohannaTrew
The Doppler effect is named after the Austrian physicist Christian Doppler (1803-1853) who explored the way a sound wave changes frequency from the point of view of an observer if the source of the sound moves. Thus a police car siren sounds higher in pitch when the car is moving towards an observer and lower in pitch when it is moving away. This is because sound waves are compressed when the car is approaching the observer and elongated when the car is retreating.

The desk clerk was very nice, both personable and professional. Although the sheets were thin, the laundry and room in general were clean and well-maintained. The bedspread was to the bed as a table runner is to a tablecloth: reminiscent of one. I did wish for either a thicker blanket or a bedspread (instead of running the heater all night) due to the missing weather strip on the door (on the other hand, it was nice to have "real" air to breath at night).

Following NASA and Curiosity's successful landing on Mars, Curiosity now needs an operating system update.
Software that was installed originally here on earth was to operate and co-ordinate the landing phase of the process. The new OS update will replace this software with programs more suitable to explore Mars, operate the mechanical arm and navigate around oncoming objects.
So when your waiting for an OS update (ICS, iOS 6 etc…) then remember, what you're getting over your normal phone network, is something that NASA are doing too, only in space.
The new software will be transmitted from Earth and relayed to Curiosity via the Mars Deep Space Communication Complex 'Canberra'.
It really is an incredible feat of engineering, and to think we get impatient with mobile phone carriers for being tardy with their updates due to, 'technical issues'.
You can follow Curiosity's progress via its own personal Twitter account where your kept up to date by Curiosity itself (sort of) or via Facebook.
We just hope NASA have a good roaming data package!

Photography Not Allowed – 26 (Photos of Copyrighted Works)
The Metropolitan Museum of Art has lent to The University of Texas at Austin 28 middle to late 20th century sculptures that have been installed across the campus as part of the university's public art program. While you can look at the sculptures, you are not supposed to touch or photograph them.
As previously reported in my March 20, 2008, blog, courts have disagreed about whether photographing copyrighted works violates the copyrights in the works. UT Austin has taken the position that photographs of the sculptures are not allowed. As explained in its "Frequently Asked Questions,":
The University of Texas at Austin and its affiliates enjoy a limited right to reproduce photographs of Landmarks' projects for educational and promotional purposes. The university does not, however, own the copyright to these works of art and it may not reproduce these images for commercial purposes. Any party who seeks to reproduce art in the Landmarks collection for commercial gain must first obtain permission from the copyright holder, which typically belongs to the artist or the artist's estate.
Until the law is made clearer, it's a risk to photograph other copyrighted works without permission. Always respect the copyrights of others!
Thanks to Rob Strong for submitting this alert and for providing the photograph shown here.Check Photo Attorney on Lynda.com, in the Lynda.com Article Center, and on Twitter!

I was sitting in the back of my pickup truck talking to Mrs. Amano at the ferry port. My husband was driving and I was sitting in the back. As we passed the ferry terminal, Mrs. Amano flagged us down.
The Amanos run the ferry service, and she said she was holding a package for me. She handed me the package, I thanked her, and my husband started to drive away. But something suddenly occurred to Mrs. Amano, something she forgot to tell me, so she cupped her hands around her mouth and yelled out, "Ashita, sanbashi wa chikaku ni na ru yo!"
As we drove away and Amano-san stood there getting smaller and smaller, I translated in my head, "The pier will become closer to you tomorrow." What the heck did that mean?
I live on the other side of the port from Mrs. Amano and the ferry terminal. Every day out my window I can see the ferries come in and out of the port and tie up on the ferry pier as the people get on and off the ferries from the mainland.
The sanbashi is where all this happens. It's a floating dock that rises and falls with the tides. There are many floating docks around the port, but the only one called sanbashi is the one the ferry uses.
Yet something big was going to happen tomorrow. How could the dock move? Would the sanbashi grow out toward my direction? Or maybe she meant "move," as in an earthquake prediction.
The pier will become closer to you tomorrow. Perhaps I will mentally bond with it and become closer to it.
Mrs. Amano obviously knew something about my future that I didn't. Perhaps this was a prophecy. The pier will be closer to me meaning it would be more accessible.
Perhaps I will go on a long trip and should pack my bags. Or maybe it was the Japanese way of saying "Some day your ship will come in," and she meant tomorrow.
Whatever it was, I could hardly sleep imagining the possibilities. I sleep with the windows wide open so that the sea breeze cruises across my bed and out through the back window. There is always a breeze on the port. But even more, I like the sounds that hitchhike in on the breeze and pass over me in the night.
On our side of the port, just below my window, there is a floating dock full of fishing boats. The dock creaks as it moves in the wind and with the tides. There is a soft and constant wailing sound produced from the wind whistling through the metal pipes in the dock and the gangways down to it.
The sides of the fishing boats lazily click against each other as they are jostled by surface ripples in the water.
When a fishing boat returns in the middle of the night creating a wake, the jetty creaks and groans as it rises over the rolls of waves.
Sometimes, when it's really windy at night, I walk over to another dock where the sailboats are tied up. I lie down on my back on the dock and get ready to hear the amazing wind concert the sailboats put on as the wind rushes through the hollow masts and rigging.
It's an eerie sound at first, starting quietly and slowly building up, and then when it is at its highest pitch, the wind literally screaming, it starts to quiet down again.
These masts, all lined up, and all of different heights and with different lengths of wire rigging, each produces a different tone. It's almost as if the sailboats are communicating with each other in their own singing language. Or maybe the masts just have whales inside them. At any rate, these sailboats create the world's largest wind chime.
When I woke up the next morning, I looked out my window and, indeed, saw something very surprising.
A tug boat was towing the sanbashi away!
The ferries continued to come in and out, but instead of going to where the sanbashi had been, they came to my side of the port, and left the people off at the fisherman's dock.
I thought about Mrs. Amano's words again: The pier will become closer to you tomorrow. All I could say was, "Naruhodo!" I get it! I later learned that every 10 years, the sanbashi must be taken in for a safety inspection.

Nikki's Interview: How to Reach a Million YouTube Subscribers
Enjoy some of my favorite parts of the interview!
That feeling, even at this point still comes and goes because it's so different, or off the beaten path. Even now, 4 years in here I am making a full time income off of it, I go through seasons of thinking am I crazy, million YouTube subscribers? It's changed our life in so many ways, but that feeling of, am I crazy? Should I be doing it? I felt that in the beginning a few times where I thought, this is so dumb, nobody gets it. When I first started telling people, they are like, what are you doing? You are filming videos in your bedroom? Even when I first told my husband, he would ask me, what do you do all day? You've been on your computer at home all day? It's so new and not something everyone understands. Have you ever heard the saying, new levels, new devils? Every level you get to, there are new things you are dealing with. One thing that has been a struggle is, I love making videos, taking pictures, creating things, beautiful things, and making amazing food. I love the artistic side of it. The business side has been the hard side for me. Because it's myself, I'm a person, I am selling myself, that has been the bigger struggles and the doubts, I am tearing through contracts. I think, should I just stop? It just becomes a little bit stressful and sometimes I think that is not what I signed myself up for. I know that everyone experiences part of their job they don't like. Also, dealing with people that are not so nice. I want to help impact people in a positive way. When you deal with hate, that is a little harder.
Product placement! I've joked for a long time that I kind of wanted to do the reverse end of what Jessica Simpson did where she came in on her talent and built this whole lifestyle brand. Some people have said that is why my numbers have not rocketed, people don't know what to make of me. For me, it was a conscious decision, I wanted to do lifestyle, I wanted to do a bunch of different things. I wanted to try it. I wanted to see if I even liked it. That's why I rolled out wit the tumbler. It's easy integration, it will naturally be easy for me to promote. So much of what I am doing right now is experimenting with things and finding out the paths that I want to take. I've talked to people about licensing deals and I wasn't sure if that was a path I wanted to go. Now that I experimented with self-fulfillment, is this what I want to do. There are honestly so many different things going on right now, I'm not sure what path its going on. Its interesting in some ways it's doing a little bit better than I thought, in terms of speaking to my fears. But, in reality it's doing exactly how I thought it would. We sold about 1200-1500 since we launched them. Most of the sales happened when I first launched. There has been so much going on, that I haven't gotten to push it much. Its doing about as good as I thought it would. I'm selling it for about $20 domestically and $30 internationally.
Beauty Bonus
Holy Grail:
What are your three Holy Grail Beauty items.
- Tarte Maracuja Foundation: I love it
- For hair, I am going to say the Chi silk infusions, its what saved my hair through going blonde.
- Sugar Lip Balm: Ive been buying it since I had braces.
Beauty Bonus Round:
What are your three holy grail work items?
- My Canon 60D, DSLR is one of them.
- Sony RX100. It is really great because it gives DSLR quality in a tiny, hand-held camera. I found out about it from a subscriber who came to a meet-up and was vlogging. Its expensive yet worth it because you can get such beautiful quality but not draw so much attention to yourself with a big camera. Its more discreet and fun. You end up with this beautiful video that nobody expects from this little camera.
- My iphone. I do so much business on my iphone. Every time a new one comes out, I want the new one. It have the 6 but I'm going to upgrade to the plus. I do so much, I feel like I personally will like having a bigger screen. Everyone kept telling me its too big, but I regret not getting it.
Time Management Tips?
I know people that don't even use calendars. Use a calendar, use your notebook to make sure you are making lists of everything. I try and prioritize. If my list is really long, I will try and prioritize. I don't have a set schedule, I haven't figured out how to do it.
Dream Collaboration:
Pioneer Women
What would you not do again if you were to start your YouTube channel right now?
I know I'm about to sound so corny, everything I have done I have learned so much If I wished it away, I would have still encountered those problems and not know what to do. A million YouTube subscribers is huge and I wouldn't change a thing.
What are you glad you did do?
Researched the crap out of everything. I feel like I went to YouTube school. I'm glad I came in with that, I feel like I came in with a lot of information. I like that I did so much research at the beginning. There was something called YouTube partners projects. There was this series that used to be on Youtube. It's a great series.
What has been your favorite opportunity you have gotten form YouTube?
I had always wanted to go to NY my whole life, a year and a half into YouTube I got to go to NY with Clean and Clear. I was standing at the top of the empire state building and I was crying. I couldn't believe I wanted to go there forever and I tried so many times and couldn't get there and now because I upload videos to the internet I got to go there. It was a really exciting moment for me.
What piece of advice would you give someone who has a YT channel and its not going where it needs to go?
It takes a long time for things to move. It takes a while. I'm over 4 years in, it takes a while. Keep learning. Try to find out, is there something I am missing in the puzzle? It took me a long time to reach a million YouTube subscribers.
What is your unfair advantage?
I think I make people happy. I think people will say that, you made me feel better, I was in such a down mood, you make me happy. People will say sunshine a lot to me. I think that's my thing, I think I make people happy.

TIME, they say, is the greatest healer of them all. It has certainly mellowed Will Carling's first girlfriend to catch the public eye, Victoria Fisher.
She called the former England rugby captain a "sex-mad, serial womaniser" when, in 1995, he dumped her for Julia Smith after a two-year affair.
Now, however, she has changed her tune. "Will has been treated very unfairly; he just doesn't deserve his love-rat reputation," says Fisher, 31, at the launch of a new financial services company, DPA, on Thursday.
"Will is no different to many other people. Yes, he left Ali Cockayne when she had just had their baby, but many other men have done that and they don't get vilified by the press. He's actually a really nice guy and we have stayed friends."
Fisher recently moved back to Britain from America with her husband, Giles, and two young children, and hopes to pursue a career in acting.

I'm back with some questions and to make sure I haven't screwed something up….
1. The tagline (site-description) is too small in the desktop view (IE 11) and way too big on my phone (Android Chrome). On the phone it almost takes up the entire screen. . It's Android 5.0.0, Chrome 47.0.2526.83. On the desktop view it was a bit too big and I tried to make it smaller but got it way too small and I can't get it any bigger now.
2. I've added pages and since the search box is at the end of the line where the menu is, it's causing the menu to wrap around. I'd like the search box up above the social media icons with the phone number (which I'd like darker and bolder) )" /> and email address hyperlink where they are. That way the menu hopefully won't wrap around. If it still needs to wrap, I'd like it to look better. Currently the first menu box in the second row doesn't line up with the first box in the first row and there could be a little space between the rows.

- Beach Scene - 2999
- £1,400.00
Born in 1943 in Brunn, Germany Initially, as a free commercial artist, he was devoted to the colours of painting. The main thread of his work is to find the full varety of light in landscapes and to create an expressive heightening of colours out of it. This is especially shown in mediterranean themes and coastal scenery. The spectrum of his pictures is followed until abstraction. To be inspired from the visual reality, his pictures create a reality of their own and inspire the imagination of the viewer.

John and Cushla Calder
After a very rough start with our initial Auckland based building company going into liquidation, and a huge loss of faith in builders, we engaged Sayers Construction to build our dream holiday home in Matarangi.
Right from our first meeting with Paul we found him to be extremely professional with great communication skills..
Paul carefully managed the different phases of the construction with seamless coordination resulting in no time delays. His expertise and thoroughness also resulted in us coming in on budget.
The Sayers building team was 100% trustworthy, with the most incredible hardworking "Can do" attitude. The quality of workmanship was outstanding and nothing was ever a problem for Paul and the boys.

We have no hesitation in recommending Paul and his team to any prospective clients and we would most certainly without reservation engage Sayers Construction for any future building requirements.

AB 2640 Proposes Repeal Of Like Kind Exchanges
It is estimated that AB 2640 is at least a $350 million tax increase on our industry.
A recently introduced piece of legislation in California is causing much consternation in the real estate industry. If enacted, AB 2640 (Arrambula; D – Fresno) would repeal Internal Revenue Code Section 1031, for California income tax purposes. The repeal would be effective for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2010. Besides Section 1031, AB 2640 would apply to and would repeal non-recognition treatment for, among others, involuntary conversions, for certain seller reacquisitions of real property and for transfers of property between spouses.

Twin Forks' Chris Carrabba is a road warrior after more than a decade of fronting Dashboard Confessional at venues around the world. Still, there's nothing quite like your comfort zone. That's the message of "Back to You," a standout track from his new band's self-titled album.
"We all travel for making music, and it's hard to be away. You're always thinking about your connection to home," Carrabba said. "Sometimes it's through your guitar or your microphone or whatever. And then sometimes it's about your connection to that audience and hoping that they'll want you to be back there. Sometimes I even say this song's about hoping you invite us back to you another time."
For this acoustic session captured before the band's Nashville gig, Carrabba is joined by talented sisters Kimmy and Kelsie Baron. The stripped-down arrangement lends an Americana vibe to Carrabba's skillful songwriting — a development that's been a long time coming. He has said Guy Clark and Townes Van Zandt were two of his favorite songwriters growing up.
"When I started playing acoustic-based music, I wasn't trying to avoid traditional folk because I didn't love it. I just loved it so much and didn't wanna do an injustice to it," he said. "And I had other influences, and I thought, 'Why can't I combine this punk and hardcore feeling with this classic folk feeling?' Because they were both such massive loves of mine."
Naturally, the band's on the road this summer with upcoming dates in the U.S. and Canada. Open your doors to Twin Forks and see their CMT Edge live performance of "Back to You."

Why is the setting significant to the overall meaning of Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men?
- print Print
- list Cite
Steinbeck's novel is, in some ways, a tale of two cities: Weed and Soledad. What happens to Lennie and George in Weed anticipates what happens to them in Soledad. Lennie's alleged sexual assault of the woman in Weed foreshadows the encounter with Curley's wife in Soledad.
The mere names of these two towns also hint at the hardship that Lennie and George face. The name Weed implies an unpleasant growth that might spoil an otherwise pleasant landscape. Even more striking is Soledad, a Spanish word that can mean "solitude," "isolation," and even "grief."
On the barley farm near the town of Isolation, we find many characters who are alone. Curley has a wife who has an eye for other men. Candy has an old dog, but this dog is "put out of his misery", which leaves the old swamper even more lonely. If the farm workers want female companionship, they have to go into town to a house of prostitution. The African-American character, Crooks, is isolated from the other men because of the color of his skin.
Ultimately, the most prominent characters in the story all long to be in some sort of setting where they won't feel so alone and where they will feel needed. Such a dream draws Candy into wanting to go in with George and Lennie in buying their "dream" house. Eventually, the greatest joy in life is having someone with whom to share it. As Lennie cries out,
"We got each other, that's what, that gives a hoot in hell about us..."
Thus, a novel set near the town of Soledad has much to say about solitude and lonliness.
