Lessons from a $40,000 G.P.S. Device
Geocacher Jib Ahmad, Sunshot99, makes his living as a land surveyor. His GPS device is literally his livelihood. A land surveying website lists the occupation as the world's second oldest job. But it now has some of the world's most modern, technical and costly equipment.
Jib says that the GPS device displayed above costs about $40,000.
Let's add a little perspective to the price tag.
With the slumping housing market, $40,000 will not just buy you one house, but in some parts of the world it'll buy you two houses (or more).
Jib was kind enough to answer a few questions about the five-figure device. He says the Global Positioning System is one of his favorite subjects.
Jib says, "I am a land surveyor here in Texas and this is not my personal unit. I use it for work. I have never looked for a geocache with the unit – only verified coordinates with it."
He says that the device's accuracy is certified at two to three centimeters on a horizontal surface.
Two centimeters is about the width of a nickel. Jib says he's found the unit is generally even more accurate.
He says, "This is a 'survey grade' system that would not be necessary or practical for most geocachers."
But in case you're interested, he has details. A lot of details. Jib says the device is made up of a base unit and a rover unit: "The receiver I was using is a Trimble R8 GNSS with a Ranger TSC2 Bluetooth data collector. The receiver has an integrated antenna that is capable of tracking 44 satellites."
At this point you may say, 'Well there aren't 44 U.S. GPS satellites out there.' You'd be right. This GPS device can also track signals from Russian and European Union global positioning satellites.
He says, $40,000 doesn't buy you any more of a geocaching joy. "To search for a geocache that was placed by a handheld GPS would not be much fun with a 'survey grade' GPS device. The coordinates would have the standard handheld error of about 3 meters or 10 feet. So really it would not give the 'survey grade' geocachers an advantage over other handheld cachers. But for those that would place a cache with 'survey grade' equipment, the normal geocachers should have better luck depending on the accuracy of their own handheld unit."
And Jib has advice for you to get the most out of your GPS device: "Geocachers may find that they can get a better signal and accuracy range by simply moving their body around. In North America, the best direction for the GPS system is to have a clear southern horizon. So, if you are having trouble, move around so that the southern sky is more visible."
He says his best advice is to know your own GPS device inside and out. If you want to test its accuracy, you may have some luck in the Houston, Texas area soon.
Jib says, "I am in the process of getting permission from the U.S. Army Corp. of Engineers to set a benchmark/geocache in a Houston area park. The geocache will be a Mystery cache designed to show any cacher how to get different coordinates for the same point. Hopefully this will show them the standard error for their PND (personal navigation device)."

Minnesota Boy Shoots Nine-Year-Old Sister in Chest
ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) - A 5-year-old boy accidentally shot his 9-year-old sister at an Oakdale home, but she is expected to survive.
Police say the girl was shot in the upper chest at about 6:30 p.m. and taken a St. Paul hospital.
Oakdale police officer Michelle Stark says was in stable condition Friday night with a noncritical injury.
Stark says the girl, whose name was not released, was shot in the living room of her family's home. A .22-caliber rifle was apparently left out for repairs.
Their parents and three other children were home at the time.
Police are investigating whether adults who were in the house negligently stored the loaded weapons and where the boy picked up the rifle.

Preparing for the Phase 2 ULDD
Are you getting ready for the Phase 2 Uniform Loan Delivery Dataset (ULDD)? It's critical that you start your planning process now to ensure that you're fully prepared for the implementation. As a reminder, you must begin collecting the Phase 2 ULDD data points for all loans with Application Received Dates on or after March 1, 2014, and delivered to Freddie Mac on or after August 25, 2014. Working together, we can continue to successfully build on the strong foundation of the ULDD by further improving data quality, accuracy, and consistency.
Freddie Mac will support your preparation efforts with tools, training and other resources. Over the course of the next year, we'll assist you by describing the steps you need to take for a successful implementation. You can find a month-by-month checklist of important tasks to complete in the Preparing for ULDD Phase 2 calendar. Below, you'll find information on your first steps.
Conduct Your Phase 2 ULDD Data Analysis
Your first step in preparing for a smooth implementation begins with conducting a thorough analysis of the Phase 2 ULDD data points.
Whether you deliver loan data directly from your own system, use a vendor to import the data, or manually enter the information, you and your team will need to complete the following action items:
- Review the data points in Appendix A – Freddie Mac XML Data Requirements V.3.1.0. You may also refer to the Excel version for easier data sorting and organizing: Appendix D – Freddie Mac XML Data Requirements Reference Tool V.3.1.0, including addenda.
- Determine which data points you currently collect and maintain in your systems or mortgage document files.
- Make sure that the data points that you collect meet the requirements stated within the ULDD specification (Appendix A), and in Chapter 17 of the Freddie Mac Single-Family Seller/Servicer Guide.
- Identify any data points that you do not currently collect.
- Develop a plan to capture the missing data; identify how and where the new data points should be collected and stored in your systems.
- For a complete list of Investor Feature Identifiers, review Guide Exhibit 34: Investor Feature Identifiers.
- Contact your Freddie Mac representative or 800-FREDDIE if you have any questions about the data points or the specification. It's far better to clear up any confusion now, rather than later in your implementation process.
- Check our website for quarterly releases of the ULDD specification.
More Information
We'll provide more information on your Phase 2 ULDD preparation steps in upcoming communications. In the meantime, be sure to review the following:
- Preparing for ULDD Phase 2 calendar.
- Phase 2 of the ULDD fact sheet.
- Exhibit 34: Investor Feature Identifiers.
- ULDD Questions and Answers, updated for Phase II.
- Freddie Mac's ULDD Web page.
- Contact 800-FREDDIE or your Freddie Mac selling system representative with questions.
This communication relates to the Uniform Mortgage Data Program, an effort undertaken jointly by Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae at the direction of their regulator, the Federal Housing Finance Agency.

NHGRI Names New Chief of Cancer Genetics Branch
NHGRI Names New Chief of Cancer Genetics Branch
Dr. Elaine Ostrander Will Lead Efforts to Understand Genetic Basis of Cancer
BETHESDA, Md., Wed., Nov. 10, 2004 - The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) has named Elaine A. Ostrander, Ph.D., as the new chief of its Cancer Genetics Branc
h, one of the seven research branches in the Division of Intramural Research. In its short, 10-year history, the NHGRI Intramural Program has emerged as one of the premier research enterprises working to unravel the genetic basis of human disease.
"Dr. Ostrander brings a combination of expertise and vision in multiple areas of genetics, genomics and cancer biology to the Institute. Under her energetic leadership, the Cancer Genetics Branch will have unprecedented opportunities for elucidating the molecular underpinnings of cancer, and for developing new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for the care of cancer patients," said NHGRI Scientific Director Eric D. Green, M.D., Ph.D.
Dr. Ostrander comes to NHGRI from the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center (FHCRC) in Seattle, where for more than a decade her laboratory has been a leader in mapping genes responsible for cancer susceptibility in dogs and humans. Cancer is the No. 1 killer of dogs, and the clinical presentation, histology and biology of many canine cancers closely parallel those of human malignancies. Consequently, comparative genetic studies of canine and human cancers should yield significant clinical benefits for both species.
In addition to their relatively high rate of cancer, dogs are an especially useful species for genetic studies because selective breeding has generated an extremely diverse range of breed types. Such diversity makes it easier for geneticists to identify the gene or gene combinations responsible for various traits, such as leg length, coat color and enhanced disease resistance. Conversely, this diversity also makes it easier for researchers to identify the genes responsible for susceptibility to cancer and other diseases. Many dog breeds result from a limited gene pool, and as a result have a high incidence of genetic diseases. This creates additional opportunities for researchers to zero in on gene(s) of interest for both human and canine health.
"Because human families are small, it's difficult to use them to discover the many genes involved in cancer. However, dog families, with their larger size, give us the advantage of being able to find many more of the genetic contributors to disease, particularly cancer," Dr. Ostrander said. "By using dogs as an animal model and comparing what we learn in them to what we know about human cancer, we are slowly but surely putting together the basic vocabulary of cancer susceptibility."
In addition to her canine research, Dr. Ostrander studies prostate and breast cancer susceptibility genes in humans. With other collaborators, she recently undertook a genome-wide scan for prostate cancer susceptibility genes. So far, this research has found that prostate cancer is genetically very diverse and that multiple genes are likely involved in its development and progression. She and her colleagues are now focusing their efforts on identifying candidate genes. Dr. Ostrander also is interested in studying the general population to learn more about the frequency and distribution of genetic mutations already known to increase cancer susceptibility in high-risk families. Her laboratory recently completed two large-scale screening studies looking for mutations in the two known breast cancer genes (BRCA1 and BRCA2) in women with breast cancer to identify both protein-shortening and missense changes that are likely to be associated with cancer.
Dr. Ostrander's graduate and postdoctoral research concentrated on DNA structure. In 1991, she moved to Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in Berkeley, Calif., where she began her efforts to create a map of the dog genome. In 1993, she moved to FHCRC, where she began a series of long-term collaborations with investigators from the FHCRC's Public Health Sciences Division. This work lead to an increased understanding of the role of genetic predisposition with regard to hormonally influenced cancers, such as breast cancer. At FHCRC, Dr. Ostrander held joint appointments at the Human Biology Division and Clinical Research Division, and she is an Affiliate Professor at the University of Washington, Seattle, in both the Department of Genome Sciences at the School of Medicine and the Department of Biology at the College of Arts and Sciences.
Born in Syracuse, N.Y., Dr. Ostrander received a B.S. in 1981 from the University of Washington and a Ph.D. in 1987 from Oregon Health & Sciences University in Portland. She has co-authored more than 100 peer-reviewed publications. More information on Dr. Ostrander's research, including a list of her recent publications, is available on the NHGRI Web site at: www.genome.gov/Staff/Ostrander.
A high-resolution portrait of Dr. Ostrander is available at: www.genome.gov/dmd/img.cfm?node=Photos/People/Ostrander_Elaine_2_12_10&id=70547.
NHGRI is one of the 27 institutes and centers at the National Institutes of Health, which is an agency of the Department of Health and Human Services. The NHGRI Division of Intramural Research develops and implements technology to understand, diagnose and treat genomic and genetic diseases.

Hakeem Olajuwon, who was the first No. 1 draft pick that David Stern introduced as commissioner back in 1984, made a special appearance at Barclays Center as Stern made his last pick on Thursday.
Stern, who is retiring as NBA commissioner after 30 years, finished his time at the podium by announcing Nemanja Nedovic as the No. 30 pick of the first round.
Moments later, Olajuwon appeared on stage in a tuxedo (it looked a lot like the one he wore in 1984) to shake hands with Stern.
"I wanted to be here for your final pick. Thank you for an amazing 30 years," said Olajuwon, the UH star who was drafted No. 1 by the Rockets. "All you have done for the league and the players, thank you."

If You Are Feeling Weighed Down
If you are Catholic, and trying to do it (i.e., be Catholic) well, and are paying attention, you probably feeling a little down about all the stuff going on right now. I know I am. I don't have anything really articulate to write. The thing feels to me like a very dense storm cloud, fiercer than normal anti-Church nonsense. It's very incongruous with the weather being so fine outside my window. The cross is not ours to bear alone, though. Please do not give up looking to Jesus, looking to heaven for help.
We should also take comfort in this prophecy of St. Peter, the first pope, who himself came against fierce opposition:
For the time has come for judgment to begin with the household of God; and if it begins with us, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God? (1 Pt 4:17)If you find yourself fazed or perturbed, please remember these words of Teresa of Avila:
Let nothing perturb you,It's going to be OK. Hold fast, pray, enter into the Triduum with your whole heart. Remember Jesus.
nothing frighten you.
All things pass.
God does not change.
Patience achieves everything.
Whoever has God
lacks nothing.
God alone suffices.

Jennifer Nettles Snags Top Two Performances of the Night in Week Three of 'Duets' Competition
In a similar fashion to last week's electrifying Kelly Clarkson & Robin Thicke 'Duets' opening number, Jennifer Nettles and fellow celebrity mentor John Legend kicked off week three of competition with a flashy, choreographed performance of the 1974 Kiki Dee original 'I've Got the Music in Me.' The solid performance set the stage for a big night for Nettles, who remains the judge to beat after three impressive weeks with hopefuls J Rome and John Glosson.
Glosson took the stage first with his hometown hero to perform 'How Great Thou Art,' the hymn the young hopeful first sang to snag his spot on the televised singing competition series. After a misstep in last week's song choice, Glosson redeemed himself, earning critical praise from the the three remaining celebrity judges.
"I'm secretly trying to find a way to get you kicked off the show," said Kelly Clarkson, who gave the performance the first standing ovation of the evening. "You're so damn good! It sounds like you've been singing together forever. Great job! That was so good — I can't stand you!"
Also on his feet was John Legend, who also had nothing but positive things to say to Glosson. "I felt everything," admitted Legend. "You sounded so beautiful together. The arrangement was gorgeous. You should be proud!"
Just before taking the stage, Glosson spoke about his personal reason for choosing the original hymn to spotlight his soaring vocals."It's more special because today is the day my mom found out she was pregnant with me," said singer.
"The next day my parents lost their oldest son to Leukemia," added a somber Glosson. "I would like to dedicate this song to my parents. And a brother someday I will get to meet."
With his story in mind, Thicke was able connect with the performance on a whole new level. "I have a two-year-old boy myself. I was definitely thinking about my son and your family," said the soul singer. "You had me feel every feeling I needed to feel during that song."
Glosson was given an early first place lead, but was knocked to second place by his fellow Nettles protege later in the episode. The Georgia native remained in second the rest of the show.
Also choosing his song for intensely personal reasons, J Rome dedicated his heartfelt duet of the Michael Bolton ballad 'How Am I Supposed to Live Without You' with Nettles to his late grandfather. The pair's emotional performance resonated greatly with the remaining three celebrity mentors, especially a tearful Clarkson.
"Team KC — we love you!" confessed Clarkson. "I love this show. You're so good. I hate you!" joked the Texas native.
"What can I say after that? I'm running out of nice things to say about J Rome," said Legend. "Phenomenal vocals. This is the tearjerker episode. I can't take it anymore." An overwhelmed Thicke was left speechless, offering only a congratulatory round of applause following the performance.
"I'm honored," said the Sugarland singer following the performance. "That was a dedication for his grandfather. I'm honored to be a part of that."
J Rome's performance earned him another first place finish, which he was able to maintain throughout the rest of the show. The impressive young talent has placed No. 1 on the scoreboard every week since the beginning of the series. Glosson's second place finish marked the first time in the competition that the same celebrity mentor held the top two positions with their teammates.
With their high standings, neither of Nettles' hopefuls had to sing for their lives this evening. Thicke's Alexis Foster and Clarkson's Jason Farol placed in the bottom two, with Foster sent packing in the show's first elimination. The ABC reality show will go live in three weeks, when a viewer vote will decide the fate of the remaining aspiring singers.
Tune in to ABC next Thursday night at 8PM ET for another exciting episode of 'Duets!'

Gov. Brian Sandoval (R) signed legislation that legalized online gambling inside the state of Nevada — a move that could signal a potential goldmine for developers of social casino games.
Both houses of the Nevada legislature passed the bill as an emergency measure so the could lay claim to being the first in the nation to sign such a bill into law — ahead of New Jersey. Online gambling firms pray that the Nevada law could be the start of an avalanche of legislation by tax-hungry states to legalize the industry across the country. And the video game industry's social casino game makers hope the legalization will happen and bring a windfall to them as well.
New Jersey governor Chris Christie (R) vetoed an online gambling bill Feb. 7, but he said he was planning on signing an amended bill next week.
Social game companies like Zynga are hoping for legalization of online gambling to help their own businesses. Social casino games — where you can buy virtual chips to make bets but you can't cash out — are considered the "top of the funnel," or the industry that could recruit new gamblers at very low marketing costs for the gambling companies. Indeed, while online gambling may draw about 40 million players, the number of social casino players is about 170 million.
While social casino games are generating around $1.7 billion in revenue, online gambling is a $35 billion worldwide business, according to Morgan Stanley. It is part of a larger $390.5 billion real-money gambling casino business, with the turnover of dollars reaching into trillions of dollars.
The Associated Press reported that Sandoval said it was a historic day and that the law would "usher in the next frontier of gambling in Nevada."
Sandoval is the former head of the Nevada Gaming Commission, and he said the law was critical to the state economy. A.G. Burnett, the current chairman of the Nevada Gaming Control Board, said the state has 20 applications from various potential online gambling operators looking for licenses.
The new law permits Nevada to authorize cross-state gambling with other states that offer Internet poker. Previously, lawmakers passed a bill that positioned Nevada to legalize online gambling if the federal government allowed it. That federal bill failed, leading Nevada to try negotiating agreements with other states.
The potential for online gambling brightened at the close of 2011, when the U.S. Department of Justice issued a letter saying that the federal Wire Act of 1961, which had previously been used to crack down on gambling on the Internet, only applies to sports betting.
Other states could benefit from partnering with Nevada because it has the most mature regulatory infrastructure, the Nevadans argued.

Arbor Snowboards is proud to announce the return of the FACE/OFF amateur and open rail competition at Boreal Mountain Resort on Saturday, April 14, 2012. Arbor team riders, Nick Visconti, Scotty Vine, Sean Black, Ian Sams, Sammy Spiteri, Brandon Hammid, Eli Weiner, Mark Reininga and more will be at the event to ride with competitors and judge the event. "The event went amazingly well at Bear Mountain last year and now we couldn't be more stoked to be bringing the FACE/OFF to the Lake Tahoe area and Boreal Mountain," says Arbor's marketing director, Brad Farmer.
The FACE/OFF will include a 60 minute jam qualifier round which up to 100 competitors of any age, sex and ability may enter. There will be awards and huge prize packs for the top three females, males ages 16 and under and males 17 and over. Fifteen of the top open class riders will be selected to advance to a final round in which the riders will FACE/OFF in games of SNO until the last man is standing. The top three will score prize packs including a new Arbor skateboard with third place snagging $100, second grabbing $300 and first will take away $600 and a new Arbor Draft Snowboard. "The format for this event has wildly exceeded our expectations and created a very exciting event. Once it gets down to the final 15 riders, the event becomes intense as competitors battle it out for the victory. In the end, there is no question about who won the event.
Last season's winner, Erik Leon will be back to defend his title and DJ Jokzilla of Fat Beats LA will make a return to the turntables. All riders should be aware that helmets are required at Boreal events. The Arbor FACE/OFF is proudly sponsored by Red Bull, Boreal Mountain Resort, Electric Visual, Flux Bindings, Sessions, Arieal7, Sand Box Helmets, Arnette and Elm Company. The event is dedicated to the memory of legendary terrain park builder, Miah Peably who worked with Snow Summit, Bear Mountain, Mountain High, Northstar and Snow Park Technologies building parks for world class events including the Dew Tour, Winter X Games and countless high profile film and photos shoots.

The Highlanders are the preseason favorite for the first time in a decade with good reason: the defending conference champs (regular season and tournament winners) still have their skilled twin towers combination of 6-8 Joey Lynch-Flohr and 6-11 Art Parakhouski. RU center and dominant force Parakhouski in particular has the size, strength, and game needed to dominate the opposition (for perspective, last year he averaged a double-double against Big East and ACC competition), playing his way into Player of the Year honors last season and the Preseason POY award for this year. Beyond Radford, the race should be very tight among a few schools with questions to answer: Asheville — can the Bulldogs win away from the Justice Center this year (11-3 home, 4-13 on the road a year ago); Winthrop — can the Eagles return to their once-familiar position of dominance in the Big South with 2009 Defensive Player of the Year Mantoris Robinson now as the unquestioned team leader; and Gardner-Webb — can the Runnin' Bulldogs and playmaker Grayson Flittner iron out some consistency so that they turn their big wins into streaks? Meanwhile, two recent contenders will definitely be rebuilding: VMI — where Coach Duggar Baucom no longer has the Holmes twins to rely on in his rapid-fire scheme; and Liberty –where star player Seth Curry and Coach Ritchie McKay both departed Lynchburg, leaving new Coach Dale Layer to get the Flames burning again. High Point should fit in around where VMI and Liberty fall in the standings, with Coastal Carolina in that mix as well, while Charleston Southern is likely to trail that group despite the sharpshooting of Jamarco Warren. Presbyterian College remains ineligible for a championship as the transition to D1 continues, but PC doesn't have the tools to contend yet in any case, so look for the Blue Hose at the bottom of the standings.
Predicted Champion. Radford Highlanders (NCAA Seed: #15). Last year RU passed early front-runner VMI in the regular season and then knocked the Keydets out in the Big South Championship. The reward for the Highlanders? A #16 seed and a lethal draw against eventual National Champion North Carolina (an experience Parakhouski describes as "short, but amazing"). This season Radford should draw a little more attention and could easily play into a #15 spot, which opens the possibility of getting a potentially favorable match-up down low given the size RU can bring to the post. With that, it's not out of line to think the Big South could see a first round win for the first time since Winthrop's memorable upset of Notre Dame in 2007.

In recent columns, I've talked about the need for greater residential density in the downtown area.
Savannah's older neighborhoods were designed to be far denser than they are now.
Additional residents in the Landmark Historic District would help balance some of the impacts of tourism, a hot topic of late.
In adjacent neighborhoods that would actually like to benefit more from tourism, additional residents will help support neighborhood retail revitalization.
And that brings me to the beautifully renovated Heyward Apartments at the northeast corner of Bolton and Habersham streets. That's just east of Kroger.
The two massive buildings, which together total about 11,000 square feet, are connected by a hallway and have only six apartments.
SCAD students would obviously be the most likely tenants for the newly renovated spaces, but the large, rambling units could be perfect for students at the nearby Savannah Law School and for young professionals.
Just over a century old, the buildings changed hands frequently in recent years and were vacant and in considerable disrepair when Mike Powers and his team took on the project, which was spotlighted here in the Exchange section last April.
The four-bedroom apartments on Habersham Street are $2,600 a month. The Bolton Street apartments, which lease for $2,100 a month, have either two or three bedrooms, in addition to grand porches.
The porch on the third floor is higher than most of the nearby rooftops, with commanding views of the neighborhood. I enjoyed that view last Thursday evening at a packed grand opening hosted by Powers and Powers Property Investments.
Asked about the project, Powers could only rhapsodize about the talented young team that oversaw the renovations, with guidance from the Historic Savannah Foundation.
"These kids are all in their 30s with so many contributions to make to our city in the future," he told me via email.
I didn't check birth certificates to confirm ages, but that young team included property manager Lindsay Thomas, Linn Gresham Haute Décor, Martin + Zittrouer Construction, Doyle Landscaping, Travis Thomas of The Savannah Bank, Amanda Dunn of Cora Bett Thomas Property Management, Jennifer Mafera of HunterMaclean, Quatrefoil Consulting, Daniel Rowe of Deemer Dana & Froehle LLP and Staci Donegan with Celia Dunn Sotheby's International Realty, who handled the original sale.
The Heyward project shows the great potential for some of the old frame buildings in the Victorian District.
Perhaps the apartments will spur other investors and developers to go the extra mile when they take on large rental projects like this one.

Survivor's Rob Cesternino had me as a guest on his podcast Friday, despite the fact that I'd partially lost my normally awkward voice, and despite the fact that I repeatedly referenced pooping in a bucket. Anyway, in the later part of our conversation, he dropped a bombshell: There's a reality TV show called Bikini Barbershop: Jersey on HDNet.
I didn't believe him at first–it sounded like a joke that played off of this effect, even though the title lacks the word "cupcakes"–but it's true. And while I don't pay for HDNet (my cable company doesn't even offer it), and I sure as hell wouldn't for this show, because watching clips on YouTube convinced me that it's basically the worst of everything imaginable, starting with women who are sexually harassed while being interviewed for a job at a place where haircuts are given by stylists in bikinis.
The boss is Jeff Wulkan, who HDNet calls "the Hugh Hefner of hair," and he comes across as a blatantly sexist and homophobic asshole. Talking about two women making out, he says, "It kind of makes me a sick when a lesbian like Kim tries to take the only hot girl and turn her into a lesbian. It's like, don't be a guy-hater your whole life. Don't turn her to the dark side. Keep her for fresh meat for the guys."
Ugh. While this would seem like the perfect candidate for being a fake truTV-style reality show, and even though the intro to the show (watch below) seems like it was developed in three minutes for an SNL sketch, the place is real.
The only thing that could make me watch more than these clips (warning: potentially NSFW) is an episode of Tabatha Takes Over that was filmed there, because I might even pay to watch Tabatha rip this guy apart.

Undergraduate Admission
Welfare offer football online betting_Welfare offer best casino signup bonus no deposit_new online casinos with no deposit bonuses
Even with everything that's going on in town, you'll never have to go far to find it.
Boston is America's college town, with an eclectic mix of college students, young professionals, families, and born-and-bred Bostonians. Many residents are transplants, hailing from across the country and around the globe, all drawn to the city's intellect, scenery, history, and local pride. Boston is a great place to spend your undergraduate education and start your career. You may find that once you've lived here, you won't be able to leave.
Our Neighborhood
Emerson College is centrally located in downtown Boston, at the corner of Boylston and Tremont streets and in the Theatre District. We are on the edge of Chinatown, across the street from Boston Common, and a quick walk from the Financial District, the Boston Public Garden, the Massachusetts State House, and Boston City Hall. High-end shopping, espresso sipping, and people watching are prevalent on Newbury Street, Boston's luxury shopping district (also just a short walk from Emerson's campus). Watch videos of some Boston attractions ?
Boston may be best known for our sports teams and our incredibly loyal and sometimes, well, fanatical fans. Whatever your sport of choice, Boston probably has a local team that you can cheer on. If professional sports aren't your thing, you can catch plenty of college games instead. We're confident you'll get caught up in the Boston pride when the Red Sox parade through our campus down Boylston Street during the Rolling Rally.
Arts and Culture
Cultural events and opportunities abound throughout the city. Visit our superb museums, including the Institute of Contemporary Art, the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, or the Museum of Fine Arts (and many offer discounted admission with your student ID). Catch a ballet performance at the Boston Opera House, a theatrical performance in our own Cutler Majestic Theatre, or enjoy the Boston Symphony Orchestra or a student recital at the New England Conservatory or Berklee College of Music. If arts and culture are your go-to entertainment, you'll never get bored in Boston.
Food and Dining
And did we mention food? Oh, the food. Delicious, delectable, fresh, regional, international, homemade, and homegrown. Boston's dining options range from the traditional New England clam chowdah to the intriguing Ethiopian yasa wot. Every neighborhood has its vibe, its culture, and its prized recipe. There are several farmer's markets throughout the city that are open from May through November. Visit them to purchase fresh-baked bread, local honey, and fresh produce so you can concoct your own signature Boston dish in your kitchen. Watch videos of some great spots to eat ?
We hope that during your time at Emerson, you'll venture far beyond campus and see what this magnificent city has to offer. A great mix of serious academia and a busy social life—perhaps Boston sounds a little like you. So where else should you be?

It sounds like a PR disaster, but recalling 1.6 million faulty cars hands General Motors' new CEO Mary Barra a rare opportunity to polish the company\'s tarnished image, if she plays it right.
GM is under intense scrutiny for how it handled complaints that the ignition switch on its 2003-2007 Chevrolet Cobalt, Pontiac Solstice and Saturn Ion models could suddenly stop the engine and disable, among other things, the front air bags while driving down the road. Thirty-one crashes and 13 deaths have been linked to the faulty switches, which GM says are vulnerable to jarring from heavy key chains or bumpy roads.
What everyone wants to know is when GM first learned of the problem and whether it tried to sweep it under the rug. And by "everyone", we mean the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Rep. Fred Upton (R., Mich.), who has called a congressional hearing for later this month, and, most recently, U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara of Manhattan, who has launched a federal criminal investigation.
This has unleashed a torrent of negative headlines. GM's share price has behaved accordingly. Including Wednesday's 0.8% slide, the stock is down over 7% for the week.
But investors are selling mostly on perception because the company's financial stake in this case is extremely limited. Thanks to its 2009 bankruptcy, GM is not liable for problems prior to going Chapter 11. That means it's only on the hook for repairs to the recalled cars. Wall Street estimates that cost at about $150 million.
Given the limited financial damage, Sterne Agee auto analyst Michael Ward points out that the bigger risk to GM is how its response is perceived in the marketplace.
"We believe the company has an opportunity to go above and beyond what is required and prove change has indeed occurred at the company," Ward writes in a note. "The ultimate goal is to get the events out of the media and change the narrative."
This is exactly what BP faced in 2010 when a leased rig, the Deepwater Horizon, blew up and sank in the Gulf of Mexico, spewing crude all along the Gulf Coast.
BP's liability in that case ran into the billions of dollars, at one point threatening to bankrupt it. But it bounced back, spending vast amounts of time and money rehabilitating its reputation and "making things right" with those affected by the spill.
GM's Mary Barra can now do the same for a lot less money. The company is already offering a $500 cash allowance for owners of the recalled vehicles to encourage them to trade them in for a new GM car.
But time is of the essence. Jack Nerad, executive market analyst at Kelly Blue Book, tells MarketWatch that GM needs to turn growing media attention to the recall in its favor before it affects sales.
"I think the important thing for General Motors now is to get this behind it as quickly as possible. Get a fix in place, make sure it's moving forward, and if they can't get this out of the news, make certain that the general public feels that General Motors is doing all it can to fix the situation."
Given the number of hearings already on the calendar and the inevitable grandstanding by the politicos, this story is unlikely to go away any time soon.

Sully Erna Offers Update on Godsmack Covers EP
Godsmack have a couple of projects in the works for 2012, one of which is an EP where the band covers songs that inspired them over the years. According to frontman Sully Erna, we may hear the new covers very soon.
While gearing up for their co-headlining spot on the Mass Chaos tour with Staind, Godsmack have been busy with a number of things — mixing a live album, recording a covers EP, and Erna has been recovering from knee surgery. Sully told 'That Metal Show' that they also are planning some sort of "special retail piece," which may be related to one of the aforementioned projects.
Despite having their plate relatively full, Erna revealed via Twitter that the EP of covers is almost ready for mass consumption. "Been in the studio last 3 weeks. Today is last day of mixing the covers EP we're working on for you. I think you're gonna love this!" Erna boasted of the project before revealing their unusual release strategy, "I want to suggest to management when they're all ready to hear we throw them up on line and let all of you decide which one is best 4 radio."
Godsmack will hit the road with Staind and Halestorm for the Mass Chaos tour, which kicks of it's 20-date trek this April at Augusta, Georgia's James Brown Arena.

I don't want to buy a travel guide. With Google searches that provide instant info on the latest restaurants, shops and hotels, I'd rather hold on to my money and pass on by the travel section in my local bookstore. Unless of course, something new were to came along- something with style and substance that peaks my curiosity and will stay relevant for years to come. That would change everything.
Georgia native, Taylor Bruce has created a niche in the travel book market with his first independently published field guide, Nashville. As stated on his site, these field guides are "small books with a lot of soul, packed with local lore, interviews, a cultural almanac, vignetted memoirs, a best-of list, hand-drawn maps, and much more." Put another way, it's not your average travel guide.
A lover of essays, I'm quite fond of Taylor's incusion of short stories that showcase the real poetry of a city. It's like having a local take your hand and tell you a story- a story that is significant because it is rooted in place and time. It opens our eyes to a new perspective, which to me, is the most valuable aspect to our travel experiences.
Points of interest in Taylor's guide have earned their spot on the page. They're the places that have endured and have left a mark in the soil. You need to visit there.
I particularly like Taylor's Almanac section which features content reflecting the true soul of the city. For Nashville, this includes fried pies, heirloom tomatoes, Johny Cash's creed and, as featured here, songbirds.
Taylor's next independently published field guide will be Austin, Texas, to be released next month- and you can pre order here. I hope he keeps going, preferably sticking to cities here in the South where we have the best characters, the best soul and the deepest roots. Perhaps I'm biased... or perhaps I just want to visit my local bookstore again, this time stopping at the travel section.

Watch Out for Patulin in Apples
Information provided by Debra Levey Larson at the University of Illinois
URBANA – Fallen apples from homeowners' fruit trees may contain patulin, a toxic chemical produced by fungi such as Aspergillus, Penicillin. Consequently, the fruit should not be eaten or used in baking.
"While pasteurization, which heats product to 180 degrees, will destroy live micro-organisms, it has no effect on heat-stable patulin toxins. Consequently, damaged apples should not be used by homeowners, even for canning, jelly making, or in pies," said nutrition and wellness educator Drusilla Banks.
Banks said the fungi gain easy entry into the fruits that have been bruised or damaged by insects.
The Food and Drug Administration has set a maximum tolerance level of 0.5 parts per billion patulin content, according to U of I Extension local foods systems and small farms educator James Theuri. "To put it another way, 0.5 ppb is equivalent to one teaspoonful of patulin in 2,000,000,000 gallons of apple cider or juice," Theuri said. "This is why consumers who have apple trees should absolutely not use apple drops, or bruised, damaged fruits. It's better to be safe than to be sorry."
U of I Extension Specialist Mosbah Kushad stressed that this is a message that is important for homeowners who have apple trees. "Reputable commercial growers are aware of the pataulin risk and do not sell dropped or rotten apples or use them in cider production."
Theuri warned that patulin is a toxin for which consumers have almost zero tolerance. "Patulin toxins are highest in moldy apples; the more mold growth, the more patulin toxin. Fruit quality must be a top priority when selecting fruit for sale or processing," he said.
Theuri said that the warm spring season prompted apple trees to begin budding earlier than usual. Immediately following the warm spell in March, multiple freezes in April damaged many of the buds. Then in July, drought conditions hampered most of the remaining production. All of these factors contributed to this year's smaller harvest – 14 percent lower than the 2011 crop.
Taking into account supply and demand, Banks says to expect to pay higher prices for locally grown apples this year.

For many people who live relying on paycheck to paycheck, getting a cash loan is a remarkable help. It is also helpful to get out of a tight spot and financial emergency. Perhaps, you need to visit your dentist, changed the tire of your car or you need to pay the mortgage before it gets foreclose. Whatever your reason of needing instant cash, cash loan is here to assist you.
Depletion of cash makes most people apply for quick cash. They find this type of loan as the urgent solution to solve financial issues. Although it seems good to start but if you become dependent on it, you would get hooked to a bad habit. Once you get used on getting loan it would be hard for you to stop and look for other alternative to solve financial problems.
personal cash loans, payday loan 90 days pay, online payday cash loans,
It is important to remember not to obtain instant cash unless you need it most. Beware to use the fund to obtain extravagant things that are not necessary such as buying new outfit, cell phones and many others. Although the lending company would not interrogate you where you will use the fund but it would be worthy if you will use it reasonably. Once you start using it impractically, you would only aggravate your financial restraints.
As much as possible, when you apply for cash loan you should identify first the reason why you need to. Weigh the advantages and disadvantages so that you can decide well. In this way, you can avert from deciding on getting instant cash and have regret in the end. Keep in mind that you will repay the loan with your hard-earned money that is why you should be frugal in disbursing it.

During the 2011 World Bank Annual Meetings, we decided to give the highest visibility to the topic of gender equality in connection with the World Development Report 2012.
The report details the need of the world to close the big gender gaps that exist in order to pursue a path of true development for many countries. There is global progress, for example, in education.
But in other metrics, the data on gender equality is appalling:
Worldwide, women make up the majority of unpaid workers. And violence against women is still widespread.
These last months, mobilization and participation has been strong all around the world.
The hashtag #thinkEQUAL was mentioned nearly 16,000 times on Twitter, reflecting the participation of Internet users. We created special pages, webcasts, chats, videos, photo galleries, polls, and special content in several languages to include as much audience as possible, but also to encourage participation around this main issue.
Five months later gender equality is still our priority. That is why we are launching today "Women of the World," a photo collection that you can download on your iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch.
Our partner, Fotopedia , brings to your device a worldwide photo exhibit of 500 portraits of women.
Through the app, users will encounter women from every corner of the globe and witness their fighting spirit in the face of human, political, and religious events.
The app explores the stunning images of a bride at her wedding in Singapore, a woman whose daughter had just been saved from malaria, women mine-sweeping the fields of Cambodia, nuns in the convents in France, girl-soldiers in Mozambique along with other portraits that compose this magnificent sociological study.
Every photo is accompanied by captions with information from the WDR 2012 report that summarizes the state of gender equality in the country where the picture was taken.
Want to see the portrait of women in a particular country? Use the map to dive on a continent, a country, or a region and find all photos taken at a specific location on the planet.
This is not the first mobile application the Bank has launched – they are all listed here. But this is the first time the Bank has launched a mobile application to support a major awareness campaign.
It's now your turn to give a new dimension to the fight for gender equality: Each picture can be shared with your friends and networks via email, Facebook and Twitter. And each time you do so, the application will offer to add the keyword #thinkEQUAL to your message.
So share the photos and invite people to join the global conversation. We think it's time to increase women's economic opportunity and their voice in decision making.
The time is now.
It's time to think EQUAL!

Once authenticated, a user can be authorized to perform various Message Queue-related activities. As a Message Queue administrator, you can define user groups and assign individual users membership in them. The default access control file explicitly refers to only one group, admin (see User Groups and Status). A user in this group has connection permission for the admin connection service, which allows the user to perform administrative functions such as creating destinations and monitoring and controlling a broker. A user in any other group that you define cannot, by default, get an admin service connection.
When a user attempts to perform an operation, the broker checks the user's name and group membership (from the user repository) against those specified for access to that operation (in the access control file). The access control file specifies permissions to users or groups for the following operations:
Connecting to a broker
Accessing destinations: creating a consumer, a producer, or a queue browser for any given destination or for all destinations

hi guys,
i'm still learning C, and one of the assignments of a tutorial was to code a time calculator, well i did, and it works fine, but i think it can be done a lot easier, just don't know how, perhaps there is some library for it...
here's the source:
i've attached the source and executables (both for linux and windows) so you can take a look yourselfCode:#include <stdio.h> int main() { int time,time_hours,time_minutes; int duration,duration_hours,duration_minutes; int end_hours,end_minutes; time_minutes=61;/*make sure the while loop will start to run*/ time_hours=25;/*make sure the while loop will start to run*/ duration_minutes=61;/*make sure the while loop will start to run*/ duration_hours=25;/*make sure the while loop will start to run*/ printf("\nThis program allows you to calculate the end time"); printf("\nwhen you enter the start time and duration."); printf("\nUsage: 1234 is 12 hours,34 minutes, so always enter"); printf("\nyour times like this.\n\n"); while((time<0) || (time_minutes > 59) || (time_hours > 23))/*bounds check*/ { printf("\nEnter the start time: "); scanf("%d",&time); time_minutes=time%100;/*calculate time hours and minutes*/ time_hours=(time-time_minutes)/100; } while((duration<0) || (duration_minutes > 59) || (duration_hours > 23))/*bounds check*/ { printf("\nEnter the duration: "); scanf("%d",&duration); duration_minutes=duration%100;/*calculate duration hours and minutes*/ duration_hours=(duration-duration_minutes)/100; } end_minutes=time_minutes+duration_minutes;/*calculate result*/ end_hours=time_hours+duration_hours; if(end_minutes >=60)/*check if time minutes + duration minutes exceed the 60 minute limit*/ { /*if so, then add 1 hour for 60 minutes*/ end_minutes-=60; end_hours++; } if(end_hours>=24)/*check if time hours + duration hours exceed the 24 hours, if so*/ { /*then start counting from 0 again*/ end_hours-=24; } if(end_hours<10)/*print exta 0 if hours is lesser then 10*/ { if(end_minutes<10)/*print extra 0 if minutes are lesser then 10 and hours also*/ printf("\nStarttime is %d. Duration is %d. Endtime is 0%d0%d.\n",time,duration,end_hours,end_minutes); else /*print extra 0 for the hours, but not for the minutes*/ printf("\nStarttime is %d. Duration is %d. Endtime is 0%d%d.\n",time,duration,end_hours,end_minutes); char x;/*just to keep the result visible when this program is running in windows*/ x=getch(); return 0; } if(end_minutes<10)/*print extra 0 for the minutes, but not for the hours*/ printf("\nStarttime is %d. Duration is %d. Endtime is %d0%d.\n",time,duration,end_hours,end_minutes); char x;/*just to keep the result visible when the program is running in windows*/ x=getch(); return 0; }
thanks in advance

GPxVentures needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 47 designs submitted by 10 freelance designers.
Green Phoenix Ventures
We're a solar energy start-up in South Asia, specifically Pakistan, looking to deliver electricity to people beyond the grid.
Rationale behind the name: Green for Pakistan's flag and the "green" nature of solar energy. Phoenix because we're launching out of the University of Chicago (the school's emblem). Ventures because it sounds cool.
For the logo, I was envisioning a graphic of a phoenix along with the company name (Green Phoenix Ventures) but am open.
I had searched the web for phoenix images and I liked this image the most: http://phoenix-irc.net/Phoenix.jpg. I like it primarily because the wings look like crescents (the Pakistani flag features a crescent moon) and the sun behind the phoenix. I was thinking that the phoenix in the logo could essentially replicate the image I linked to except less ominous looking, more smoothed edges (e.g., no feathers), and with an overall more modern look. But again, am open.

—Clyde Russell is a Reuters market analyst. The views expressed are his own.—
By Clyde Russell
LAUNCESTON, Australia, Feb 12 (Reuters) - The increasingly strident calls by some Australian politicians to either tighten or scrap the country's controversial mining profits tax ignore that the measure is working as it is supposed to.
The response to the Labor Party government's somewhat sheepish announcement that the tax raised just A$126 million ($129 million) in its first six months, nowhere near the budgeted A$2 billion, has been predictable and unimaginative.
The government has engaged in shifting the blame to volatile commodity prices and the strong Australian dollar to cover its embarrassment that the budget surplus it promised on the back of the mining tax has evaporated.
The left-of-centre Australian Greens, which along with three independents, support the Labor-led minority government, want to change the law so that it raises more revenue.
Meanwhile, the main opposition Liberal-National coalition, which was never in favour of the tax and is leading the opinion polls ahead of the federal election scheduled for September, wants it scrapped.
All of this fails to take into account that the Mineral Resource Rent Tax (MRRT) was designed to extract more money from the big coal and iron ore miners when they were making significant profits.
While the design of the tax is by no means perfect, it was never meant to be a gouge, or an unfair burden, on resource companies.
Rather, as they made more money from selling iron ore and coal, mainly to China, the miners would have to hand over some of the additional proceeds to the government, in addition to normal corporate taxes and mining royalties.
The MRRT was set at 30 percent of assessable profit of coal and iron ore miners once profits reached A$75 million, and it came into being on July 1, 2012.
Companies are allowed to deduct an MRRT allowance of the long-term government bond rate plus 7 percent and there is also an extraction allowance, but the main concession is that royalties imposed by state governments are also deductible.
The tax had a controversial birth, having originally been mooted as the Resource Super Profit Tax in 2010, and it was to be levied at a 40 percent rate and apply to all minerals.
After a concerted campaign by mining companies and the Liberal opposition, the Labor Party dismissed former prime minister Kevin Rudd from his post and replaced him with current leader Julia Gillard, who appeased the mining lobby by negotiating the watered-down MRRT.
Whether this was good politics or not is open to debate, but the Labor government's mistake appears to have been to assume that the commodity price boom was an ongoing story that would deliver a revenue stream they could use to fund their social-spending programme.
However, it didn't quite pan out that way, and the tax's introduction coincided with a slowing of growth in China, Australia's biggest customer for mineral exports, as well as renewed recession in Europe and concern in the United States about the looming "fiscal cliff".
Asian spot iron ore prices .IO62=CNI-SI fell to a three-year low of $86.90 by Sept. 4 from around $134 a tonne at the end of June, before recovering to reach $144.90 by the end of the year.
Regional benchmark coal prices at Newcastle port dropped to $80.82 a tonne in mid-October from $97.31 a tonne at the end of June, before recovering to $92.25 by year-end.
Both have improved further in 2013, with iron ore reaching $155.10 by Feb. 11 and coal $96.09 by Feb. 8, meaning the tax should raise more in the first half of 2013.
But what the pricing shows is that there was a significant drop in both iron ore and coal in the second half of last year, and that would have all but eliminated the excess profits the MRRT was supposed to capture.
It's also worth noting that the MRRT was being put together in 2010, with iron ore above $180 a tonne in April of that year, while coal hit $136 a tonne in January 2011.
Clearly the Labor government expected those sorts of prices to continue, or thought that if they did decline, it wouldn't be to the extent that they actually did.
The government wasn't alone in expecting the boom prices to continue, but the error has severely dented their credibility in an election year and should be a warning to politicians not to spend money they don't actually have.
But the MRRT is not at fault, in fact, it would be more problematic if it was currently extracting more revenue from the mining sector, given the pressure on companies to contain costs in the face of lower commodity prices.
The MRRT is meant to be a "good times" tax, not a permanent revenue collector such as a resource rent-type impost, which levies a charge on each tonne of ore mined regardless of what the producer can actually sell it for.
Such a tax would have accelerated job losses, mine closures and a much bigger scaling back of investment plans than the MRRT has done.
Fiddling with the MRRT to ensure it raises more money, even in bad times, would be a silly and self-defeating mistake for any government, while scrapping it altogether means forgoing revenue in good times.
The risk for Australia is the seemingly never-ending adjusting of the tax system undertaken by both major parties, mainly based on ideology rather than good public policy.
If the Liberal coalition does triumph in September's vote, expect another bruising and counterproductive fight over tax policy, which can only serve to make Australia a less attractive place to do business.

LONDON (Reuters) - Britain's biggest banks were spared a full-blown inquiry into the personal current account market after the consumer watchdog said changes already being implemented could stimulate competition in the industry.
The Office of Fair Trading decided not to refer the industry to the Competition Commission for the time being, highlighting new rules being implemented to make it easier for customers to switch accounts and branch sales by state-backed Lloyds Banking Group (LLOY.L) and RBS (RBS.L) which will create new banks.
Britain's 'Big 4' lenders - Lloyds, RBS, Barclays (BARC.L), and HSBC (HSBA.L) - control about three quarters of the current account market, worth about 9 billion pounds ($13.7 billion) per year, and lawmakers are keen to encourage greater competition.
The OFT said on Wednesday it still had significant concerns about the market and would consider again whether there were grounds for a competition inquiry in 2015 at the latest. However, it noted that there had been a significant reduction in overdraft charges since a previous study in 2008.
To avoid a new inquiry, the OFT wants banks to be more customer-focused and for customers to be better informed and to have a greater choice of banks to choose from. The OFT also wants it to be easier for new banks to enter the industry.
A committee of British lawmakers, tasked with recommending measures to improve banking standards, is expected to put competition at the heart of its proposal when it publishes its final report next month.
In September, new measures will be introduced giving banks a strict seven-day deadline to enable customers to move to a rival bank should they wish to do so. Customers have traditionally been reluctant to move because of the complications involved.
In addition, start-up banks in Britain will not need as much capital as their established rivals from next April.
Competition will also be heightened through the creation of two new banks as a result of branch sales which state-backed RBS and Lloyds must make as a condition of European regulators granting approval for their taxpayer-funded bailouts in 2008.
Lloyds is preparing a stock market listing of 630 branches, which will be rebranded under the TSB banner, last seen on the British high street in the early 1990s.
RBS has similar plans for 312 branches, which will be renamed Williams & Glyn's, a name not seen since the 1980s, prior to a stock market flotation next year.
Many Britons were disillusioned with their banks in the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis and distrust of the industry heightened following scandals such as the rigging of benchmark interest rates and the mis-selling of loan insurance.
Metro Bank became the first new high street lender for more than a century when it launched in 2010. Other challengers such as Virgin Money and retailer Marks & Spencer (MKS.L) have also emerged.

Bill's graph seem to show that Shanghai and Barcelona scale (almost) linearly with the number of cores, whereas Nehalem stops scaling and flattens out at 4 cores. The Nehalem 8 cores and 4 cores curves are virtually indistinguishable, and for very large arrays 4 cores is ahead. Only for huge arrays (>16M) Nehalem gets ahead of Shanghai and Barcelona. Did I interpret the graph right? Wasn't this type of scaling problem that plagued the Clovertown and Harpertown? Any possibility that kernels, BIOS, etc, are not yet ready for Nehalem?

Update: Keuchel has updated his post, indicating that Google has "stepped on the gas" and as such, the plan is to start taking orders through the Google Play devices store tomorrow morning, "around breakfast time" in Germany. (That's early morning Pacific time.) We've updated the article below to include this new information. An earlier post by the Google Germany employee suggested a late afternoon Euro launch.
We know many a smartphone nerd will have been hoping for a midnight debut of the new Nexus 4 and Nexus 10, which were announced a couple of weeks ago with a Nov. 13 launch date. However, it seems Google has other plans for its new phone and tablet launch. Google Germany employee Stefan Keuchel took to Google+ today to inform followers that the new devices would not be available at the stroke of midnight, as some had speculated. Instead, he says he's learned that Germans will be able to start ordering devices tomorrow morning Euro time. There's no information as to whether the devices will go on sale in the U.S. around the same time.
Take this with a pinch of salt, though, as the Google mothership has yet to make any official statement on the exact time of availability. But if devices do show up online around Tuesday morning German time, Europeans can expect to start receiving orders on Wednesday or Thursday of this week.
Keuchel warns against staying up to check the Google Play Store. Nevertheless, we'll be checking store listings regularly over the next 24 hours.

Manufactured hair is produced using acrylic or nylon strands, though regular hair can be human hair or human hair blended with creature hair, (for example, steeds, angora rabbits, or sheep). Human hair is generally the most astounding quality hair, yet just when points of interest of development and preparing are considered. Common hair wigs can last up to five years with appropriate care, are thicker, can be styled with warmth and regularly have a more veritable look, thusly have a tendency to be more costly.
Common wigs are more adaptable and can be colored diverse hues (lasting or semi-perpetual) and styled with different types of warmth. Note: subsequent to washing, a characteristic wig should be restyled, though synthetic wigs ought to never be warmth styled. We are the best manufacturer & supplier of Hair Toupees in Arunachal Pradesh.

Generation: Hand-Tied or Machine-Made Hair Wigs in Arunachal Pradesh?
There are two principle techniques for generation of a wig: hand-tied or machine-made (machine-wefted). A hand-tied wig is one in which singular hairs are appended to the wig top by hand. This procedure is extremely work concentrated however yields more normal outcomes, since hairs will all stream in a similar course and will be less at risk to tangling. Hand-tied wigs permit the hair to be styled all the more easily and separated in various ways. Less expensive wigs are made by a machine that sews the hair into a top or nylon strips. Synthetic wigs are typically machine-made. Regular hair wigs can either be hand-tied or machine-made. At the point when made by machine, regular hair wigs must be handled with chemicals to break down the external cortex and this may prompt a not as much as perfect surface. Most wigs ought to state some place on the bundling, regardless of whether it's hand-tied or machine-wefted. Hand tied is higher quality so the bundle will highlight that refinement. Physically, hand-tied wigs ought to move all the more actually. In the event that you part the hair and look carefully, you ought to have the capacity to see the long tracks of the machine-wefted wigs in Arunachal Pradesh.
Wigs Specialty
There are different strength wigs as of now available. These include:
U-Shaped: This wig has an opening that clasps in so you can pull your characteristic hair through to give the look of a mix, which is like how a weave is done and looks. This works best if the correct surface of your common hair and the wig is a match. If not, then a wig with full scope is ideal.
Full Lace: This has the most adaptability and can even be worn in a high pig tail! This is produced using an extend top as a rule. Singular strands are pulled through the top and gives the fantasy of hair originating from the scalp. It must be connected with glue like tape or holding paste. This gives the most genuine hairline for the full scope yet is extremely sensitive and must be treated with care. It is conceivable to sew brushes or clasps on the full trim when cements are not coveted.
Bind Front: A ribbon front wig is a full wig that has a trim work connected before the hairline that takes into consideration custom fitting and styling. The trim front is stuck to the brow, giving a consistent move to the skin. This wig is hand-tied in the exceptionally front with machine wefts in the back.
Conclusion: A conclusion is not a wig but instead, a connection used to close a weave without the utilization of the characteristic hair. This emulates either a trim wig or a silk beat and is generally sewn in alongside weaving or making a custom wig by hand.
