Today we introduce you a very talented emerging DJ from our area. Pigro On Sofa is the man when it comes to mix classic and new UK urban music just the way we like it, and he is going to prove it with this bubblin' mix. But he is also an expert in the history of the dance/rave culture; we asked him a couple of questions to introduce himself.
M&J: Tell us a little something about this mix, like how you made it and what the selection is about:
Pigro: This is a mini-partymix for the guys at Babylon radio show, on italian national station RAI Radio2 (every weekend from 23.00 to 0.00). The program deals with everything fresh, electronic and indie. I put together this selection trying to match different points of view: my latest picks, playing something fit for a national radio, engaging the casual listener drivin his car, a listener driving an old FIAT Panda, and my absolute anxiety when it comes to record a set from my living room.
M&J: What are your current and future projects and where we can find you spinning records?
Pigro: I'm currently working on a demo-ep, to be released soon on vinyl, produced with Jean, an artist-producer based in Parma, Italy. After this mix I'm going to keep working with Radio2 Babylon with a very peculiar section called "Gabber Eleganza", where every week I'll be exploring the most hidden and forgotten realms of the 90′s rave and dance culture.
Here's a few date for my up-coming gigs:
2 / 06 Vie Festival – Modena
9 / 06 Mit Festival afterparty – Roma
10 / 06 Tbc – Roma
11 / 06 Mencraft Festival w/Machinedrum – Testaccio / Roma
12 / 06 w/Mombu – Terme Caracalla / Roma
15/06 Miami festival – Magnolia /Milano – and I'm waiting confirmation for my first gig in London for July!
Thanx everybody and keep following me!
Well, as usual it's about time to let the music speak: check this dope UK urban music mix, and tell us if you dig the skills! Enjoy.

Mobile Device Management
Cohort has the mobile device management experience and know-how to manage your mobile deployment to successful, secure and cost-effective completion.
Company Owned Vs. User Owned Devices
It has become common practice for businesses to allow their employees to supply their own mobile devises at work. Formerly known as Bring Your Own Device or BYOD, the company configures the device with the employee's work e-mail, calendar and contacts along with other work related mobile services such as VPN and remote file sharing rather than supplying their staff with company owned and configured devices. While doing so may increase employee productivity, job satisfaction and eliminate the need for the employee to carry multiple mobile devices it may also introduce significant risk of data loss and/or theft and can quickly increase support costs if not done right and/or left unmanaged. Cohort has solutions available that mitigate said risk and support costs using industry best practices and highly regarded MDM/EMM services and solutions.
Mobile Device Management Solutions
You don't allow unsecured computers onto your network so why are you allowing unsecured mobile devices? Because smartphones and tablets are now an integral part of conducting business and often have the same access to systems and confidential data as their Apple Macintosh and Windows PC counterparts it becomes equally important that businesses secure their mobile devices against data loss due to unauthorized access, device loss or theft. Fortunately Cohort is well versed in several leading MDM/EMM solutions and related best practices that will not only decrease time and expense of deploying your fleet of mobile devices but will enable you to remotely enroll your devices into a MDM solution, configure devices without the need for IT staff to physically touch the device, remotely lock/unlock/wipe devices and lock-down specific apps and/or services from being added and/or removed and last but not least automatically push out any changes to the device's configuration as required.

Ever since announcing last week that I was going to simplify my home, well I have been on a mad dash to get it done. I know myself and know that if I don't do it immediately then it won't get done. Hence last years failure. I cleaned out every closet, laundry room, every drawer, and basket, etc. I quickly became thankful that I have a smaller home. Now on to some embarrassing photos...
Okay remember way back when Domino folded? Well, the week before it folded I decided to purge about half of my pile. Regretted it ever since and have been hoarding magazines ever since. I get an obscene amount every month. It's my favorite way to relax. I didn't get rid of all of them but I did whittle it down to a smallish pile of favorites. Now double the pile above and you will get the idea of what made its way to the recycling center. Now I plan to only keep my absolute favorites and with issues that only have a few features I like then I will scan them into the computer.
This X2 is what I cleaned out of my closet and the kiddos. The Mr. still needs to go through his, but he has been extremely busy so it will have to wait. As for toys the kiddos got to keep their top 3 favorites. Not top 3 toys, but top three activities. Ellie choose her doll houses, dress up clothes, and kitchen gear. KJ choose all his cars and trucks, legos, and a marble maze thing. I also let him keep his dress up clothes. Of course I kept the books they read and art supplies.
Now each room had roughly this much trash. So embarrassed, but it's the truth. It wasn't all wrappers and such, but things that were not in good enough condition to give away.
I must say I feel FREE!!! Everything has a spot and nothing extra. I even have empty drawers, cabinets, and such. I still have the garage to do, but that will only happen when it gets warmer and when the Mr. isn't quite so busy. From here on out I will be sharing my newly organized spaces. So excited!

June/July 2016 / Spirit of Shokunin
In tribute to our 8 years of art within the Japantown neighborhood and to the craftmanship of each artist, we present to you "Spirit of Shokunin"
"The Japanese word shokunin is defined by both Japanese and Japanese-English dictionaries as 'craftsman' or 'artisan,' but such a literal description does not fully express the deeper meaning. The Japanese apprentice is taught that shokunin means not only having technical skills, but also implies an attitude and social consciousness. … The shokunin has a social obligation to work his/her best for the general welfare of the people. This obligation is both spiritual and material, in that no matter what it is, the shokunin's responsibility is to fulfill the requirement." – Tasio Orate.
This is a showcase of artists we've had the opportunity to work with over the years. We are thankful for all the friendships we've built and look forward to many new ones!

When Everplaces reached out to me earlier this year to propose a partnership that would combine their amazing app development and design skills with my recently discovered wanderlust and (apparently) app-worthy content creation skills, I was elated. Naturally, I said yes without much hesitation.Who could say no to such a venture? Not this girl.
So...I traveled, explored my favorite spots, spent time researching a few new-to-me places, wrote reviews, researched a bit more, edited many, many photos and dug into my archives for favorite spots that I know and love, but couldn't visit this year.
After all was said and done, I was presented with this:
Say it with me now: "ooooooh.....aaaahhhhh."
The app is aptly named Northern California for Nature Lovers and you can download it for the low, low price of $0.99 right here.
As you've probably guessed by now, the app is currently only available for Apple products. I'm hoping it'll be available on other platforms in the near future. If you're searching the App Store on your phone, just type in "California Nature Everplaces," and you'll get a screen that looks a little like this:
{I'm still not over having a 'curated by' line, by the way. Not sure I ever will get over it.}
So, there you have it. I've created my very first travel app with some of the coolest, nicest people I've ever had a chance to meet over the internet. If you want to read up on Everplaces, you can see a few previous posts here and here. You can also check out the Everplaces app here. Obviously, I highly recommend it.
Finally, I'd like to give a little shout out to my friends and family who have been incredibly supportive as I try new things and say yes to opportunities such as this. You. all. rock.
Happy Wednesday, all!

Men's Ice Hockey offers Carleton students of all ability levels an opportunity to play competitive club hockey in the Midwest. Very first, figure out whether you want newbie, middle or best of the line hockey skates. In some collegiate games in the U.S. two referees and no linesmen or two referees and a single linesman are employed, a single of the referees getting the final arbiter of disagreements. Education and coaching is provided to create your abilities and make certain fun and exciting hockey experience.
In 1911 the Pacific Coast Hockey Association (PCHA) was formed by Joseph Patrick and his sons, who constructed two enclosed artificial-ice arenas, starting a boom in the building of artificial-ice rinks. Some genuinely fascinating news for Western Province Ladies Ice Hockey Group, the KFM Breakfast team will be joining us on ice ahead of our Game on Monday 5th September at 18:30 The Ice Station, GrandWest Casino.
If you have been dreaming of the ice but haven't identified your way to the rink, our Hockey Academy is the greatest spot to commence. Hockey players usually adjust these parameters primarily based on their talent level, position, and body kind.
This platform keeps track of athletes development and guarantee that crucial elements necessary to excel in ice hockey are continuously enhancing. For example, if your U.S. Shoe Size is 9.5, Bauer, Easton, Reebok, CCM and Graf advocate that you put on size 8. hockey skates. Exemptions: Teams residing in San Diego, Orange or Riverside County are exempt from the mandatory Hotel Booking Policy.
The peewee (12 and below), intermedaites (13+) and seniors have kicked off with some high paced and intense games thus far and the rest of the season appears to be a nail-biter. Final WP team selections are taking spot and the numerous teams are to be announced soon shortly. The second grouping of games took location at 5pm and the tournament ran from Monday 27th June to Saturday 2nd July.

The Galeria de Paris, in the heart of Porto's Baixa district, is a wonderful late night drinking area with a choice of bars and restaurants.
Galeria de Paris bar and restaurant
With a large square room and very high ceilings, the mostly wooden interior is dominated by two walls full of back-lit display cabinets chock full of historic memorabilia.
As you sit and chat with friends, you can let your eyes wander over old radio sets, telephone switchboards, Monopoly games, glasses, bottles, model boats and so much more. The interior decorator of this bar must have had a ball pulling all this stuff together to create the look.
Nestled in the centre of Rua Galerias de Paris (See map), the bar fills up at the weekend with crowds squeezed in like sardines, and the street filled with smokers and those who just can't get inside. Even on a Monday night, once you hit midnight, you'll find it hard to find a free table. The music is also fantastic.
La Bohème
La Bohème is a place with strong personality. Its identify is inspired by French art deco styles. The bar offers a cosy environment with an extensive wine list and delicious tapas, with live music. It's also a popular warm-up venue for a late night on the town.
Casa do Livro bar
Casa do Livro (house of books), is a bar that was once a bookshop, and the books remain as part of the decoration, making it one of the most interesting bars to visit in Galerias de Paris. The music choice is very eclectic, and sometimes there are live shows.

Having filled the entire front page with filler, Tom and Phil finally return with a new episode of the Game Under Podcast.
There's some stuff about games in it, some stuff about the internet, too, but the real attraction is Phil's new feature, Tom's Five in Five.
Please look forward to hearing it in all the podcasts you actually listen to. But now, at least, you know where it's from!

São Paulo, Brazil
Chácara Santo Antônio is a large mixed use project in the South region of the city of São Paulo designed for developer Lindencorp, in partnership with studio André Luque Arquitetura. Its large scale and the considerable impact it might have over that region of the city demanded careful consideration of the local social, economic and environmental conditions of the site.
The project includes retail, cinemas, restaurants and services on the ground floor, as well as three high-rise buildings above. The first tower is a 16-stories office building for large companies, with an average floor area of 10.000ft²; the second is a 28-stories office building with smaller 550ft² units, and the third a 23-stories residential tower with 650ft² apartments. The whole complex is articulated by a wide semi-covered public plaza that integrates the development with its urban context, offering amenable open spaces for visitors and residents. The design of the modular façades prioritizes sustainable performance without compromising the economic efficiency of the development.
Location: São Paulo | SP | Brazil
Type: Residential | Commercial | Services
Client: Lindencorp Incorporadora
Built area: 83.340 m²
Site area: 10.350 m²
Authors: ARKIZ - Alexandre Hepner, João Paulo Payar, Rafael Brych | André Luque Arquitetura

Custom Designed Augusta Sportswear Stadium Reproduction Jersey
Since 1980, our commitment to customer support has not changed — Herrington proudly stands behind the quality and craftsmanship of our merchandise, and we truly hope you enjoy each and every buy. If executed correctly, Roberts Stadium will host the dinners, lunches, and preliminary events leading as much as the large ceremonies being carried out at our new enviornment which I hope will at some point be NCAA basketball match video games. From these footage our designers are capable of work and craft a dream collectors present for any sports activities fan: a handcrafted, hand painted resin duplicate of a favourite professional baseball park, soccer stadium, hockey or baseball area.
I am ready for some stadium music at ND. I've heard some rumblings that it might be coming in the near future, so we might as well begin now with the Brian Kelly era. We feature nearly every major sports stadium replica for baseball, soccer, faculty, and many others. Yet, right here we are over a yr into the Roberts Stadium debate and they have failed the produce something that will compete with Roberts Stadium.
I'm being informed that items corresponding to curtains and upkeep tools will likely be removed from Roberts Stadium and positioned inside the brand new area. We will still want the center and soul of Roberts Stadium as we transfer forward into future elections and as we plan future smaller arenas in the Tri-State. In 2005, Mattingly launched Mattingly Sports activities , a baseball and softball gear firm, based mostly primarily across the patented V-Grip baseball and softball bats.
Now that demolition has formally begun on Roberts Stadium, it is time to do once more what I hoped I wouldn't ever should do- log out on the efforts to save Roberts Stadium. When Baylor opened McLane Stadium, ZVerse was there with 80 replicas as a part of a faculty giveaway. Fox Sports activities never shies away from making an attempt new things (anybody remember the glowing hockey puck, or explosion sound effects for a landing cross?) Nevertheless, this formidable broadcast was the gimmick to finish all gimmicks.

When your way gets dark, baby
Turn your lights up high
It's been raining and cold since forever. The sky is grey. The people are grey. The streets are grey. In this gentle, gentle Sunday morning the sun greated us for a while. In this gentle Sunday morning.When you have time to bake and to listen to 60s Thai hits and dance around the house pretending it's Summer and that you are catching waves somewhere nice. With palm trees in my eyes, sea foam in my fingers and abandoned swimming pools in my mind.

With the return to school, many families and students are looking for quick, easy meal and snack ideas to get them through their busy days. A lot of people will resort to processed foods to help them along, and as a dietitian, I fully support this decision.
Wait! Aren't I supposed to be the champion of whole foods? The trumpeter of processed-food evil? The promoter of home cooking? The voice of nutrition reason? Yes, I am. But I'm also a mom, I'm also realistic, and I also know that most people can't and shouldn't cut out all processed foods.
Let's get one thing straight right away. There is processed, and then there's ultra-processed. Processed food is tuna, it's hummus, it's milk, peanut butter, canned beans, and frozen vegetables. Ultra-processed is processed cheese, it's sugary cereal, it's TV dinners and canned ravioli and pepperoni sticks. Are you seeing the difference yet?
Processing is essentially taking a whole food and changing it in some way from its original form. This change can be pasteurization, or grinding nuts to make nut butter. Ultra-processing is when a food is manipulated and a bunch of ingredients -- mostly preservatives, flavorings, and colors are added to it so that it no longer resembles its original form at all.
The further you refine a food -- that is, taking it further and further away from its whole form and adding lots of unnecessary ingredients -- the less nutritious it's going to be. I'm sure there are some exceptions to this rule but I can't think of any right now.
There are some people who make a lot of their own food -- their own ketchup, and chicken fingers, yogurt, hummus, and they do things like rehydrate dried beans and peas. I don't have the time or the motivation to do that. I bought my kids' baby food, too. See? It's okay to admit that you can't do it all. Plus, I like the taste of Heinz ketchup.
Here are some prime examples of processed foods that I always have in my house, and that I recommend to family, friends, and clients:
Frozen fruit
Fruit that is frozen basically 'puts the pause on fresh'. You know that any fruit tastes better the longer it's allowed to ripen on the vine, tree, or bush. Raspberries are the prime example here -- any fresh raspberries you buy at the store are picked 10 days prior to peak ripeness in order to make it to you in one beautiful piece. Frozen raspberries are picked when they're at the peak of ripeness and flash frozen, with nothing added. This is called processing, but is it anything to be afraid of? No.
Fresh fruit is great, but frozen fruit is just as versatile.
Canned beans
Call me lazy, but I don't have the motivation or time to soak beans overnight when I want to make them right. This. Second. While I do preach preparedness in nutrition, sometimes I get hit by a wild desire for black beans. While the BPA in the cans makes me a bit suspicious, I do spend the extra buck to get the non-BPA cans of chickpeas and black beans. They're quick, nutritious, and delish and a fast rinse gets the salty water off of them.
Chicken broth
Yes. Yes, you can definitely make your own broth in huge batches and freeze it, but I don't. And I use a heck of a lot of broth, so I have boxes of it lined up like sentries in my pantry, just waiting to be used. I use it in couscous, sauces, as the base for soups, in mashed potatoes, for savory oatmeals... you name it. Chicken broth adds a ton of flavor to your food, but the process of making it is long and to store a big batch, you require more storage room in the freezer than I have. I'd rather store precooked whole meals than bags of broth.
I like Whole Foods' brand for its minimal ingredients, and if you compare the ingredient label on Campbell's with 365 Brand (Whole Foods' store brand) you'll see what I mean.
Does homemade have less ingredients? Yup. But I'm not going to feel guilty if I choose store-bought for convenience.
String cheese
The story of string cheese is somewhat of an interesting one. I do recommend it and eat it myself as a convenient snack. It sure feels processed -- more processed than brick cheese at least, but when I researched how it's made, I relaxed a bit.
Turns out, string cheese is created when mozzarella is heated to a high temperature, re-aligning the milk proteins into a line configuration. This new configuration causes the cheese to become stringy.
Five Processed Foods I Wouldn't Buy
Processed cheese
There's a reason why when I refer to this cheese as "plastic cheese," people know what I'm talking about. An edible oil product, it sure melts well in a grilled cheese, but it's not even vaguely reminiscent of real food. Avoid.
Coffee creamer
Again, an edible oil product. Coffee isn't supposed to taste like hazelnut toffee nut anyways, and you don't need the double dose of trans fats with your breakfast drink. Pass.
Sugary breakfast cereals
Breakfast cereals are wickedly processed anyhow, but the sugary ones add insult to injury. Breakfast is such an easy meal to eat quick and healthy, please don't resort to sugary, low fiber crap. And don't be fooled: that "made with whole grains" claim doesn't mean a thing when the other 90% of the food is refined garbage.
Fat free anything
If you follow my blog, you already know how I feel about fat-free foods. It's time to give the 90s back their disgusting fat-free food, and start eating whole, full-fat foods that are actually delicious and satisfying.
Why anyone would buy fat free cottage cheese or salad dressing is beyond me. Are you really enjoying it? I think these foods are less healthy than their whole counterparts, because of all their additives. Eat the real thing, enjoy it, and eat less. Bam.
A nightmare of inflammatory highly refined omega-6 fats, I not only never recommend it, I also won't bring it into my house. The butter on your toast isn't why your cholesterol is high -- it's probably your overall junky diet. Here's one change you can make right now -- eat butter, not too much, and enjoy it.
We're all just trying to be efficient with our time, and like I always say -- in nutrition, there is no such thing as perfection. Remember the difference between 'processed' and 'ultra-processed', and before you shun a certain food, make sure you know how it's made. It might surprise you!

Offchurch will no longer be home to refugees or asylum seekers after latest plans by the church were scrapped.
Offa House, an unused Church of England retreat, was proposed as safe housing for women and children seeking refuge in the UK this year.
The plans came following an earlier move by the Diocese of Coventry to use the empty space as temporary housing for Syrian refugees - but both have failed to progress.
The future of the space now remains undecided but the diocese said it was clear it could not be used for one of the "great humanitarian crises of our time".
The Diocesan Bishop's Council, which has responsibility for the unused house, said after talks with contractor G4S and the Home Office, it was considered it would "not be right" to pursue changes.
A statement from the council said: "Despite our shared desire to make it work, we have judged that it is not possible to overcome a number of practicalities.
"Therefore, it is with reluctance, and certainly not for want of trying, that we have come to the conclusion that Offa House does not make for the right kind of provision for these purposes.
"I know that there was a desire from many people in the village to find – if possible – a way of using Offa House that would help meet one of the great humanitarian crises of our time.
"Sadly, it has not proved possible to find a feasible way.
"I will seek to ensure that the parish council is informed about future plans as they become clearer."
The diocese has thanked villagers for the "helpful and frank way" they have responded to the proposals.
The bid was supported by Coventry Refugee and Migrant Centre and plans were discussed in the village in May before being formally scrapped in the following weeks.
Options for the future of the space include for it to reopen as a retreat house, merge with another Christian charity, or be sold. They will be determined over the summer.

Valdet Gjeloshi was wanted by police for probation violations on a battery charge. When the came to his home, the officers received some unexpected help with their collar from Gjeloshi's two-year old son.
Police were in the midst of questioning, Megan Merschen, the mother of the boy, who insisted that Gjeloshi was not in the house when her son innocently offered that his daddy was up in the attic.
The police located Gjeloshi and arrested in him on charges relating to his probation violation as well as resisting arrest. For her attempts to hide hime, Merschen is also facing an obstruction charge.
Prior to the criminal conviction for which he was serving probation, Gjeloshi also had a previous arrest for drinking and driving.

We have just entered December which is traditionally the lunch, dinner and drinks month of the year. Traditionally the construction industry is very busy throughout the month out and about socialising and networking. The start of the festivities is usually the Lord Taverners lunch in the North East of England however this year we started even earlier with the Morgan Sindall evening last week.
Most consultants and contractors have an event throughout December bringing together clients and partners.
It is amazing that even in these challenging times priority is placed upon such events and that relationships are still at the centre of what we do.
However this year I am already sensing uncertainty and nervousness from everyone. A jovial festive spirit has yet to appear and often the discussion is about redundancies or individuals setting up their own organisations.
The days of companies exaggerating their overflowing order book are long gone and now people are far more realistic and honest about the challenges we all face.
Whilst times have been tough for the past few years I think this year there is realisation that it is unlikely anything is going to change soon and that we face several Christmases like this.
There is no doubt that the economy and in particular the construction industry has never faced the challenges it faces at present. The simple fact that revenue levels have drastically dropped has meant businesses have had to quickly adjust to a shrinking forward pipeline.
In the past it was possible to look to the future in relation to forward workload. However now opportunities are thin on the ground and generally appear without notice.
Despite all of this I still believe that relationships across the industry are strong and that everyone is supporting each other and looking to get through rather than break any records for profit or turnover.
What I have found particularly heartening is the commitment and energy from the people within our organisation. Whilst obviously all around us there is an environment of fear of the unknown I am constantly overwhelmed by the efforts and commitment our people are making on behalf of the team.
There is no doubt we have never faced a time as we do now however when we get to the other side hopefully we will all recognise that the greatest achievement is responding to the biggest challenge in a generation.
Im sure it is a story and a lesson we will share with our grandchildren.

I use an iPad Pro in college instead of a laptop and I needed a case. My Dad recommended a Waterfield Dash Sleeve for iPad Pro. Over the past two months this case has been amazing and helpful. I keep the case in a bag, which typically also has a few notebooks. I go to college in Florida, so rain is a recurring problem and my bag isn't waterproof. Normally I would be concerned about my devices, instead all I have to do is put my phone in the zipper pocket of the case and everything is safe. The pocket on the back is very helpful for keeping all of my things together. Inside of that zippered pocket there is a dedicated pouch to slide my Apple Pencil into. In addition to the Apple Pencil I also use the zippered pocket to store my headphones and my phone. More things could fit in the zippered pocket if you need it to carry more. Also, the material is more forgiving than it looks. I was concerned that the mesh pocket would let water get through, but it doesn't. I've accidentally spilled my water on the back of the case and quickly took everything out of the pocket and it was all dry. I then proceeded to play with the water to see of it would seep through the mesh, but it didn't. This case is also shock absorbent from what I've seen. I'm prone to only drop it from a relatively low height (like a table, desk or night stand), but it has held up. Just from inspecting the case it definitely cradles the iPad, so it is shock resistant. I have a 10.5 inch iPad Pro with a Smart Keyboard and Waterfield has versions of the Dash Sleeve for iPad Pro available to fit iPad Pro with or without the Smart Keyboard. Be careful about the open top. As long as the iPad is all the way in the case, the edges aren't exposed to damage. It is open to get water in from the opening of the Dash Sleeve, but so far I haven't had any issues with that.
Overall, there is nothing negative to say about Dash Sleeve for iPad Pro from my experience. Being in college tends to be rough on devices. I'd recommend this case to anyone…I love it. It's compact, protective and is easy to carry.

The Scalp Biopsy: Is it the "final" answer or just a piece of the puzzle?
Scalp biopsies are a piece of the puzzle.
Ahh the benefits of a scalp biopsy. A favourite topic of mine. A scalp biopsy refers to a short 10 minute procedures where a piece of skin and accompanying hair is taken from the scalp and sent off for analysis under the microscope. The area where the skin was removed is then stitched up with sutures.
Scalp biopsies are a big help - Sometimes!
The scalp biopsy is a BIG help when performed in the right patient and at the right time in their hair loss progression. However, the scalp biopsy is unhelpful and potentially even detrimental to reaching the proper diagnosis when they are performed "just because". As an example let's look at these two scalp photos. The patient on the left AND the patient on the right both brought in results from their scalp biopsies showing inflammation and scarring. These two features are often seen in a group of autoimmune conditions called the "scarring alopecias" . Scarring in the biopsy from the patient on the left was reported as subtle but the final report indicated possible scarring alopecia (scarring hair loss condition). The patient in the right had scarring and inflammation in the biopsy and the pathology report indicated scarring alopecia. However after closely listening to the story of hair loss from the patient on the left and examining the scalp, patient 1 leaves the office with a diagnosis of seborrehic dermatitis (a type of dandruff) and genetic hair loss and NOT a diagnosis of scarring alopecia. Powerful immune system suppressing drugs were NOT started but rather proper treatments for genetic hair loss and seborrheic dermatitis. After listening to the patient's history and examining the scalp, patient 2 (on the right) leaves the office with a diagnosis of scarring alopecia (lichen planopilaris). Powerful immune system suppressing drugs were started.
Final Point: Never Rely on a Biopsy alone!
The final point is that a scalp biopsy is not the "final answer" to why a patient is losing hair. Information from the biopsy needs to be pieced together with: 1) the patient's history of hair loss and 2) what the scalp looks like "up close" and also 3) what the blood test results show. If I'm planning to do a biopsy on my patient these other three things need to be carefully taken into consideration.

Help by Phone
St. Matthew's maintains one of the nine Help By Phone food pantries located around Prince Georges County. St. Matthew's Help By Phone food pantry is open Monday through Friday from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm. Every year, we provide emergency food assistance to more than 1,000 people in the Hyattsville area. To access services through Help By Phone, call (301) 699-9009.
Aid to Needy Families at Christmas
During the Christmas season, our parishioners donate funds and gifts to help several financially struggling families. Some of the families are identified from the St. Matthew's / San Mateo parish confidentially. Two of the families are usually clients referred by The Abilities Network, a private non-profit in Silver Spring working with disabled families. Wrapping the donated gifts is a joyous part of our Christmas party every year.
Special Collections and Projects
From time to time, we have special collections for charitable causes such as Episcopal Relief & Development and United Thank Offering.
Crop Walk
CROP Hunger Walks are organized by the Church World Service and help to provide food and water, as well as resources that empower people to meet their own needs. From seeds and tools to wells and water systems, the key is people working together to identify their own development priorities, their strengths and their needs - something CWS has learned through 70 years of working in partnership around the world. We participate in the Hyattsville CROP Hunger Walk every year on the first Sunday in May.

IPVM New Features May 2012By: John Honovich, Published on May 19, 2012
We have added in 4 new features to IPVM and have another half-dozen lined up for the second half of the year. In this post, we explain the new features.
Invoice Auto Generation
Every week, many members ask for customized invoices to submit to their accounting department. To make this easy, we have launched a customized invoice generator. You fill out your information, including any special instructions (like your PO number or VAT for Europeans, etc.), submit it and immediately receive an email with a PDF invoice. The process is shown below:
The invoice generator will make it easy to get invoices any time you want.
Receipts PDF - Emailed and Indexed
Similarly, members often need receipts after billing. While we have always included a text-based receipt in each email, we now provide PDF copies accessible online. As the image below shows, receipts is a new option in the member's page. Clicking it shows an itemized lists of all past billings, allowing members to download PDF receipts of any charge.
Request Help - FREE for Members
This new feature makes it easier for non-manufacturer PRO members to ask help. Every week, we informally receive questions from members. We are happy to answer them and want to make it easier for members to ask for help.
To do so, we now prominently display a message for non-manufacturer PRO members to ask for help. Clicking on this message takes them to a form to describe their request. The completed form gets sent to us. We will answer within 48 hours with either recommendations on the right IPVM posts to read or a plan to find the answer.
We plan to promote this heavily to encourage PRO members to ask us for help. It's a FREE feature for any non-manufacturer PRO member that will deliver a significant amount of value.
Reviews Filtered
To help readers find which reviews are free versus require membership, we added a filter to quickly toggle between the two:
- Free IPVM Articles (~300 currently)
- PRO Member Only IPVM Articles (1600+ currently)
Most Recent Industry Reports
The world's leading video surveillance information source, IPVM provides the best reporting, testing and training for 10,000+ members globally. Dedicated to independent and objective information, we uniquely refuse any and all advertisements, sponsorship and consulting from manufacturers.

Dear Members,
From October 2nd, the Tuesday and Thursday evening sessions will now commence at 7.30pm
Monday evening sessions will remain at 7.00pm and Wednesday evening sessions will be at 7.15pm unless stated otherwise
From the President:
A big thank you from all of us to Perelle Scales for working so hard on our behalf as President this year. We all appreciate her sterling efforts.
Thanks to the Giles brothers' initiative, members of the Ballarat Bridge Club visited us again last week, playing at CBC three times, and over the weekend at the CIB Congress at the racecourse. They also enjoyed Canberra's tourist sites — they have seen more than most of we Canberrans have recently. This is a great example of travel and friendship through bridge.
Please don't forget the Southern Cross Club Community Benefits Scheme. Any person who is a member of Southern Cross can assign their benefits to CBC. Once your card is registered with CBC, you simply need to have it swiped when you buy food or drink at the Southern Cross Club, knowing you are helping our bridge club. You do not need to tell any Southern Cross Club staff about it. This scheme is very helpful to CBC finances. We raised $3,000 last financial year simply by people swiping their registered cards.
So please join the Southern Cross Club, encourage friends to do likewise, have your cards registered with Kerry or Keith and then eat, drink and be merry at CSCC, while helping our bridge club.
Enjoy spring.

If you are able to be called at short notice to be a fill-in, please contact the office. If you could provide your name, contact details, and session times you are available, we will retain these to call you if there is a need for a fill-in on your available days.
Dear Hilda Lirsch,
What does the bridge cliche "When in doubt, bid one more" mean?
This proverb is relevant to teams (or Butler pairs) scoring. The opponents have bid game and you are wondering whether to bid higher.
You are doubtful whether their game will make or go one off. You are doubtful whether your higher game will make or go one off.
Now if you bid and are wrong - both contracts go one off - you lose a mere 4 or 5 imps. But if you are right, one contract makes, then you have either scored game or found a cheap save, so at least a 10 imp gain to the good guys. And if you are very right, both games make, then you spectacularly gain about 15 imps.
For example:
Final round of the Canberra Bells Butler pairs at the Canberra in Bloom bridge festival
Only your side is vulnerable. Pard deals and passes. RHO opens 4S. You hold:
so you follow the "when in doubt" principle and overcall 5H. LHO doubles for penalties and all pass. LHO's opening lead is the ace of diamonds and pard provides this helpful dummy:
LHO cashes the ace of spades at trick two. Unlucky for the opponents the ace is singleton, so the spade suit is blocked. LHO gives up with a trump exit. Trumps are drawn in two rounds, then the club finesse is successfully taken. +850 to the good guys, and a double game swing, since the other side is cold for 12 tricks in either spades or diamonds.
Note: LHO should not have given up at trick three, but instead tried a club switch. RHO, void in clubs, would ruff and cash a spade, changing +850 to -500. (But at teams / Butler scoring -500 instead of -480 is a trivial loss of one imp.)
Best wishes,
Produce Table – popular at present
Many thanks to the members who have contributed to the produce table. More are required!
John Dunn's Lisbon (Bush) Lemons are proving to be a big hit as are Patricia McDonald's, and Perelle's home-made jams. We are very appreciative for your donations.
Kerry and Keith

1. Nouveau BLT
There's a lot of room for innovation between A and Z, especially if you can also hit the salty, crispy, soft and sweetly acidic flavor and texture balance of the original.
Try this:
- Swap out the three main elements with an elevated version of each, such as pancetta, arugula and roasted tomatoes.
- Make the sandwich vegetarian with crispy strips of sweet potato or parsnip instead of bacon, and spike the mayonnaise to create a barbecue aïoli.
Menu Examples:
- B.L.Whaat!: Candied habanero bacon, greens, tomatoes, red onion, roasted garlic aïoli and Swiss cheese —The Lunchpad at Noir Lounge, San Francisco
- Crispy Chicken BLT: All-white-meat crispy chicken patty topped with two strips of freshly cooked applewood-smoked bacon, lettuce and tomato —Wendy's, all locations (part of the 4 for $4 meal program)
2. Adventures with Braised Beef
Except for French dips, roast beef sandwiches are few and far between—but lesser cuts can be turned into satisfying sandwiches utilizing meat from dinner applications.
Try this:
- Braise meats in liquids such as Porter beer or Lapsang souchong tea for flavor and flourish.
- Braise and shred brisket for an inviting Texas take on the traditional pulled-pork build.
Menu Examples:
- Braised Beef Sandwich: Slow-braised beef, provolone, charred tomatoes on a hoagie —M3, Reno, Nev.
- Short Rib Philly with caramelized onions, Gruyère cheese —Flores & Sons, Los Angeles
3. Satisfying Veggie Burger
With so much attention being paid to burgers, chefs are taking on the challenges of vegetarian and vegan cravings.
Try this:
- Experiment with a combination of mashed and shredded vegetables to help mimic the texture of beef; mushrooms in particular add umami.
- Use a falafel-style patty with Middle Eastern condiments.
Menu Examples:
- Beachwood Veggie Burger: Brown rice, wild mushroom, cashew, walnut, vegan mayo, avocado, arugula, tomato, ciabatta roll —Beachwood Cafe, Los Angeles
- Veggie Burger: Housemade with quinoa, sweet potato, roasted mushrooms and black beans, topped with pickled red cabbage and guacamole on a toasted multigrain roll —Not Your Average Joe's, multiple locations
4. Tartine and Toast Variations
Whether you call them tartines or toasts, these slices of bread sporting layers of flavors and textures are hotter than ever—as breakfast/brunch items, snacks, bar bites or lunch offerings.
Try this:
- Consider the two-bite version of toasts and minimize the experience into a crostini build.
- Modern toast preps are merging into hearty open-faced territory with toppers like soft scrambled eggs, crumbled chorizo, braised meats, etc.
Menu Examples:
- Whitefish Tartine: Egg, radish, celery —GreenRiver, Chicago
- Chicken Salad Toast with grapes, walnut, tarragon, Greek yogurt aïoli —The Sycamore Kitchen, Los Angeles
5. Beyond the Club Sandwich
Here's a classic that provides room for all kinds of variations on the usual theme of turkey or chicken with bacon, iceberg lettuce, tomato and mayonnaise.
Try this:
- Pile all the desired ingredients (turkey or chicken, cheese, bacon, tomato, mayo, etc.) into a wrap sandwich.
- Substitute toast with another layer-worthy bread, such as lavash or a flagel (thin bagel).
Menu Examples:
- Duck Confit Club: Applewood-smoked bacon, roasted garlic aïoli and pommes frites —39 Rue de Jean, Charleston, S.C., and Savannah, Ga.
- Salmon Club: Grilled Atlantic salmon, "salmon bacon," avocado, butter lettuce, cucumber —Nick & Stef's, Los Angeles
6. Reuben 2.0
Renewed interest in smoked and cured meats and other artisan deli products has spurred a resurgence in this classic hot sandwich.
Try this:
- Go with the Rachel, a Reuben made with smoked turkey instead of pastrami or corned beef.
- Make a vegetarian version using roasted eggplant, topped with sauerkraut, Swiss and Russian dressing, on grilled rye.
Menu Examples:
- Pastrami Deluxe: Swiss cheese, fried cabbage, pickled jalapeño spread, horseradish mustard, brioche, fries —Yard House, multiple locations
- Pastrami Russ: Pastrami-cured salmon, Muenster cheese, sauerkraut, mustard, pickle, pretzel roll —Russ & Daughters Cafe, New York
7. Second-Wave Hot Dogs
Burger King's success with its grilled hot dogs, plus the haute hot dog trend, has focused attention on this under-appreciated sandwich stalwart.
Try this:
- Benefit from branding by using—and calling out—a popular local or regional dog.
- Turkey, chicken and even seafood sausages make for a more healthful build.
Menu Examples:
- The Tony Dog: Local bison hot dog, bison brisket chili, Lusty Monk Mustard, housemade yeast roll —Isa's Bistro, Asheville, N.C.
- The Bratwurst with seared garlic onions, Buttface Amber Ale cheese sauce on a pretzel bun with beer mustard—Ram Restaurant & Brewery, multiple locations
8. A Little Lamb
Innovative lamb sandwiches offer big, satisfying flavor, often tied nicely to global flavor discovery.
Try this:
- Use ground lamb instead of beef for a Sloppy Joe variation.
- Quick-smoke braised lamb shoulder for a sandwich filling.
Menu Examples:
- Braised Lamb Sandwich, tomato aïoli, roasted onion, arugula —Snack EOS, New York
- Shaved Lamb Sandwich with pepperoncini, pecorino, honey mustard —Isa Bistro, Portland, Maine
9. Fried-Chicken Fun
Here's what happens when the fried chicken trend and the standard chicken sandwich get married and have beautiful babies.
Try this:
- Go Southern-style slider with chicken-fried chicken and gravy on a biscuit or waffle.
- Do a katsu treatment, housing a crispy fried chicken thigh and crunchy slaw between two soft pieces of white bread.
Menu Examples:
- Sweet Onion: Chicken schnitzel topped with pickled cabbage, jicama, radish and cilantro with a roasted beet tzatziki —Schnitz, New York
- The Wally: Duck fat-fried chicken fingers, pickles, red cabbage slaw, buttermilk ranch —Sandfly Bar-B-Q, Savannah, Ga.
10. All-Day Egg Sandwiches
The fancy-pants egg sandwich has invaded not only breakfast, but now lunch menus as well.
Try this:
- Combine egg salad with crisp sliced or chopped bacon on a hot griddled roll.
- Play off the neutral flavor of a fried egg with blue cheese, garlic mayo and smoky ham.
Menu Examples:
- Brooklyn Egghead: Two fried eggs topped with American cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato and sweet red onion, served on grilled Texas toast —The Vortex, Atlanta
- Potato Tortilla: Potatoes, onions, egg tortilla, amarillo pepper aïoli —Café Bamba, New York

Redlands Man Ordered to Stand Trial for Killing his Brother
REDLANDS:(VVNG.com)- Redlands resident, Joshua Kevin Gray, 30 pleaded not guilty today after being ordered to stand trial for the murder of his brother, the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office announced. Gray is being charged with one count of murder.
He was held to answer on that charge on July 25 and has a pretrial hearing scheduled on August 14 at the Los Angeles County Superior Court, Torrance Branch, Department L. Deputy District Attorney Richard Magleby said the murder charge includes allegations that Gray personally used a handgun shooting his brother, Isaiah Gray, 28, several times in the back on Wednesday, December 11, 2013.
The victim had been sleeping in a rental unit on the 1100 block of 107th Street in South Los Angeles that was managed by his brother without his permission,the prosecutor said. As the brothers fought over the use of the apartment, the defendant pulled out a gun. When the victim walked away, the defendant shot him in the back, the prosecutor added. Gray had initially told police three men had killed his brother, according to witness testimony. The case remains under investigation by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.

It was a good morning.
After being really sick, I work up from a fever -fee night, finally feeling like myself.
My children got up on time, everyone was good –we even got the bus stop five min early –
As we sat in the car laughing, my girls –my actual biological girls and I,
I asked my youngest if she remembered to take her homework.
She said yes, want to see??
She opened her homework folder only to realize that she forgot something she was supposed to bring to school at home. Her reaction was gut wrenching and all together over dramatic, crazy how I have such over dramatic children right??
"OK ,OK ,relax well go home , and I'll take you to school" I say .
The gods were aligned, I didn't have anything on my schedule, just office work although my inner voice was screaming …
"OH NO!!!I will lose an hour of work, I am so behind blah blah blah"
We zip home, I take them to school .On my way home I stop at star bucks ,felling like I deserve an ice coffee for my good mommy -hood
I have a shmata (rag )on my head, I'm wearing my glasses ,and to be honest ,
I never changed out of my pajamas .
Somewhere about 6 years ago I remember losing my dignity that way, having three kids in 4 years will do that to you.
I get my iced latte, I think to myself OK - I did good time,
my kid is happy ,I'm ok . I take a sip and exhale
As I am walking out of the store my eyes meet a man sitting at
one of the tables and I smile at him.
"Hia gorgeous" he yells out – I amflabbergasted , because let me tell you ,I couldn't be farther away from gorgeous that day – andI spit out my coffee laughing .
He chuckles, and then says
"You have a beautiful day beautiful"
His entire table start to clap, I am burning red (I do not blush lightly) and suddenly grateful that I actually have a bra on.
I get to my car and I am laughing out loud
I know it's going to be a good day,
That man with a few kind words and a smile made it just that .
My girls in Juvie are beautiful.
They are gorgeous, when I tell them this;
I sometimes can actually see them suddenly glow.
When I look at pictures of them that I have, my heart melts.
I have seen their broken, but beneath the broken there is such beauty, beauty my girls aren't even aware of, beauty no one has even acknowledged.
I have had the privilege of being loved, I have had the joy of being adored, parents that noticed me .Lovers that saw me.
In my life I have been told that I am beautiful, yet today I was caught off guard.
I wasn't feeling particularly beautiful and a stranger saw me and made me laugh to be honest, it felt good.
"Hia gorgeous!!" I said to her.
She looked at me, with angry eyes
"Yes you!"
"I am not gorgeous"
"Sweetheart you are, you are so gorgeous"
"You don't know that" She says.
"You are right, I don't know it, I see it" I answer
"That is bullshit" She troughs back at me.
"No, it's the truth" I shrug.
She tried really hard to be angry, that's these kids job, to be angry, not to trust, to not believe .
"I see it" I say
"What?" She tried to be pissed
"Your beauty"
This girl is beyond beautiful, but here is the thing, you might miss it if you don't pay attention because she hides it so incredibly well. Truth is many of us do.
It is so easy to make someone feel good, it's as simple as hi there, it's as easy as hello .
Or an unexpected smile.
At the end of the class she was lingering and following me around
"Do you really think I am gorgeous" she asked
"Yes I answer"
"My mama thinks I'm ugly"
"Is she blind?" I ask
She burst out laughing, kind of like how I spit out my coffee in the am –
"You are funny Ms." she says
"No, I am honest and I see you –even when you are hiding!" I say
Now she was really laughing and she said;
"My Mama doesn't see me even when I stand right in front of her"
"Well, it's a good thing she isn't here" I say –
She gives me a punch on the shoulder .That is as affectionate as she can be now .I push her back gently, then I put my hand on her shoulder .
"You are gorgeous" I say,
She looks into my eyes, years of hurt, pain and abuse are right there.
Years of never being called beautiful.
She looks at me and very quietly whispers
"Thank you"
"You are welcome!!"
The intense moment passes, she turns and walks away, I think she might just a tiny bit taller.
I watch her, I take a deep breath and smile to myself.
Sometimes it can be so simple – as simple as a ,
"you are beautiful" to make someone feel good .
So, I ask you to open your eyes, and your heart ,see the people around you,
even the strangers.
I ask you to say one small nice thing, be kind, and be generous with your words.
You see, in those words sits empowerment.
It is those words that make us a little taller, and a little less broken
"Hia gorgeous" He said to me, and he made my day.
So now you , go, make someone's day.

NORRISTOWN - 'Bear Cat' and 'Peace Keeper' armored vehicles, a 'rolling ballistic shield' and 'flash-bang' and 'stinger' tactical distraction devices were part of a concerted effort to end a Pottstown man's alleged 12-hour standoff with police, testimony revealed.
Montgomery County jurors appeared riveted as police officers, using law enforcement jargon, described their dramatic attempts to flush Albert Dudanowicz Jr. out of his residence during the Feb. 9, 2012, standoff at the Logan Court Apartments complex, during which Dudanowicz allegedly fired multiple gunshots.
Pottstown Police Officer Steven Morrisey, who is also a tactical operations supervisor for the ChesMont Emergency Response Team, or CMERT, testified despite the heavy police presence, armored vehicles pulling up to his apartment and repeated requests over a loudspeaker to leave the apartment, Dudanowicz did not budge. At one point, officers threw a flash-bang device outside Dudanowicz's patio door.
'It's very loud. It's extremely loud and very bright,' said Morrisey, describing the 175 decibel flash-bang device for First Assistant District Attorney Kevin R. Steele. 'We got no response.'
Authorities also relied on a robotic device from the Montgomery County Sheriff's Department to breach Dudanowicz's glass patio door during the operation.
'It was a positive breach. You could hear the glass breaking,' Morrisey recalled, adding authorities then heard gunshots ring out. 'I heard five to six gunshots.'
'I immediately took cover to move myself out of the line of fire,' added Upper Providence Police Officer Eric Smith, also a CMERT member, who was standing outside the Bear Cat armored vehicle. 'I could see debris flying over the hood of the Bear Cat. It was particles flying through the air.'
Hearing the gunshots, a police sniper situated across the street from Dudanowicz's apartment responded with a single shot from his weapon, striking Dudanowicz in the hand, a shot that also damaged the .375 caliber bolt action rifle Dudanowicz allegedly was holding, according to testimony.
Authorities were able to see into the apartment through a camera mounted on the robotic device that breached the glass door.
'He was bleeding from the right side of his body,' recalled Morrisey, adding Dudanowicz, although injured, appeared to be trying to engage the rifle with his left hand. 'He has this angry look on his face. He has a scowl.'
Dudanowicz eventually discarded the damaged weapon. However, he still did not obey police commands to exit the apartment, according to testimony. When the deployment of chemical agents into the apartment didn't drive Dudanowicz out, a team of eight tactical response officers went inside after the robotic camera showed Dudanowicz sitting in a chair.
Dudanowicz did not comply with police commands to surrender and officers then used a stun-gun to detain him about 7:30 p.m.
'He was taken into custody under force,' Smith testified.
Dudanowicz, 58, is charged with five counts of attempted homicide as well as aggravated assault of a law enforcement officer, possessing an instrument of crime and recklessly endangering other persons in connection with the incident. He showed no emotion as officers testified about the dramatic standoff.
The trial before Judge Carolyn T. Carluccio is expected to last several days. Dudanowicz, who remains in jail in lieu of $2 million bail pending trial, faces a possible maximum sentence of 33 ½ to 67 years in prison if convicted of the charges.
Testimony revealed the standoff began shortly after Daniel Wagoner, the property manager and maintenance man who resided directly across from Dudanowicz's apartment, summoned police about 7:35 a.m. to report a disturbance that included Dudanowicz slamming doors, making noise and spraying Lysol on doorknobs.
Officer Todd Istenes testified that he and Officer Michael Glauner responded to the complaint and went to Dudanowicz's apartment but got no response from Dudanowicz when they knocked at the door several times and telephoned the apartment. The officers then left the building and went to the rear patio door of Wagoner's apartment to speak to him again when they heard a gunshot fired into Wagoner's residence.
'It was very loud. I believed that someone was shooting at me or at us. I believed it to have come from inside the apartment building,' Istenes told the jury, adding he and Glauner immediately cleared Wagoner and his wife from the apartment and took them to a safe location.
Wagoner testified he felt 'scared' when he heard the gunshot enter his apartment.
'I just flinched. The officer grabbed me and out I went. I was scared, me and my wife,' Wagoner recalled for Assistant District Attorney Kathleen McLaughlin.
Wagoner, during cross examination by defense lawyer Benjamin Cooper, testified he had never observed Dudanowicz to be a violent person and that he had never received complaints about Dudanowicz from other residents. Wagoner testified that Dudanowicz had previously told him that he liked to hunt.
Testimony revealed the subsequent investigation traced a bullet that traveled from Dudanowicz's apartment, across a hallway, through the door to Wagoner's apartment and into Wagoner's ceiling.
In response to the alleged initial gunfire, CMERT was activated and called to the scene.

What inspires me to cook? Everything.
Since I was 14 and started my culinary career at a tiny Italian restaurant near the train tracks of a small town in Pennsylvania until today, there has been something that has inspired me to cook almost every day. It is that inspiration that carried me through 3 years of cooking school, 6 years of working in restaurants, and many more culinary adventures. It is that inspiration that has seen me through good times and bad, through periods of illness where I was certain I would never be able to appreciate food again. I return to that inspiration, time and again, as I cook, and I want to show you that in every recipe I create.
Three years ago, I started my first food blog, Food, Words& Photos. As I found my way, my niche in this world, I realized that my work was so much more than showcasing my cooking talents in words and pictures. My work is Simply Inspired. I am inspired to take recipes and innovate them to be what I need, yet still be true to the spirit of the original recipe and respectful of the ingredients and the process. So here I am, taking all the inspiration I receive from the world around me and bringing that into my kosher kitchen.
I'm Sarah Klinkowitz, owner and publisher of Simply Inspired Kitchen. I live in Brooklyn with my husband and 3 children, waiting impatiently for the next moment I can get back into the kitchen. You can also follow me and my inspired cooking here, as well as on Facebook and Twitter.

Method to wire tranfer
How to Wire Transfer Money -To send a wire transfer, you need to visit your local branch or you can make it by net banking(online) with the following details
Information about the recipient's account:
- Account holder name and full address
- Account number
- Branch number and full address
- Institution number
- Swift Code / BIC / IBAN code
- Routing Number (international
(Swift stands for Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication. It is a unique identification code for both financial and non-financial institutions
Note-A wire transfer takes approximately 3-5 business days to be processed.
One of the fastest ways to transfer money between two parties is to wire transfer money. A wire transfer allows you to send money quickly and securely.
1- Method to wire transfer -A wire transfer is an electronic method of transferring funds from one person or company to another. One common method of sending a transfer is from one bank to another. To send a wire transfer, the sender provides information on the receiving party's financial institution to their own bank. Once the transfer is complete, the sender's bank provides a confirmation number documenting the transfer
- Assume that Person A wants to send money to Person B. Person A would begin by submitting instructions to his or her financial institution. The instructions would typically include the recipient's bank name, ABA number, the recipient's account number and the amount being sent.
- Bank-to-bank transfers require both the sender and the recipient to be account holders at their respective banks or credit unions.
- ABA stands for the American Banker's Association. An ABA number identifies a specific federally chartered or state chartered bank or savings institution. The sender's bank uses the ABA number to identify the receiver's bank.
- The ABA number is the 9-digit number usually located on the bottom left corner of an account holder's check. The number directly to the right of it is typically the account number. You can also find a bank's ABA number online.
- Once the sender's financial institution receives these instructions, they will send the funds to the recipient. The recipient will typically receive the funds on the same day.
- The sender is charged a fee of $20 to $40 for the transfer. The recipient may also be charged a fee.
2-Process a bank-to-bank wire transfer.- Check your funds. Verify that you have sufficient funds in your account to complete the transaction. You should reconcile your bank account before the transfer. Confirm any outstanding checks or deposits that have not posted to your account. Once you confirm your adjusted bank balance, you can send funds.
- Deduct both the amount of the transfer and any transfer fees from your bank balance.
- Contact your bank or credit union. Depending on the services your institution provides, you may be able to access the forms you need online. If not, you will need to call or visit a local branch. If the process is new to you, call or visit a bank branch.
- Complete your bank's wire transfer form. You will need to fill out information for both you as the sender and for the receiver's bank. For domestic banks, this will include the ABA number and account number for the receiver's bank. You'll also need to indicate the amount you are sending.
- Show or verify any required identification information. Before sending the money to another account, a state issued ID (if wiring in person) or verification information (if wiring over the phone or Internet) will be required to complete the transaction.
- After your wire transfer is sent, your bank will provide a confirmation number to you. Keep in mind that banks process transfers in the order they are received. You may not receive confirmation immediately. The receiving bank's wire transfer department needs time to process your transfer.
3-Complete an international wire transfer.
For international wire transfers, you will need the receiving bank's BIC (Bank Identifier Code). One common type of BIC code is a SWIFT code. Both of these codes refer to a unique identifier for a bank. For wire transfers within the European Union (EU), you will need the IBAN (International Bank Account Number). Ask your bank to assist you with this if necessary
- You will need to complete a transfer form. The form will require information about the sending bank and the institution that receives the transfer. Ask your bank to help you gather the information you need for the receiving bank.
- If you are sending a wire overseas, you may be dealing with a foreign language. Call or visit your financial institution to be clear about the detail of the transfer.
- An international transfer will require your transferred funds to be converted from one currency into another. Make sure that you understand the current exchange rates for the two currencies. If your transfer requires the bank to convert US dollars into Euros, for example, make sure that you understand the exchange rate. If not, you may be not transferring the amount you intend to move.
How long does a wire transfer take to be processed:
A wire transfer takes approximately 3-5 business days to be processed and received, depending on the currency sent and how many intermediary banks are used for the transfer.

When I first arrived in Washington State, I quickly realized that I knew nothing about what the area had to offer. So, I made a point of picking up some tourist magazines and browsing the internet to see what this new place was all about. At first glance, a lot of what I saw was the standard tourist stuff that did not seem all that interesting. But, after looking a little deeper and talking to a few people I had come to know, I was able to pinpoint some cool places to explore. I was recently able to make it out to two of them: The unincorporated community, or ghost town, of Govan Wash. and the Lake Lenore Caves.
Govan, WA
Directions can be found HERE
When searching Govan online, I assumed it would be more of a complete town from the descriptions I read, but upon arrival it was just an old schoolhouse. This, however, did not make it any less appealing. A few of us began to make our way into the building. The schoolhouse had five rooms. An entry way, two closets and what I believed to be two classrooms. The easiest way into the schoolhouse was by climbing up and over the old stoop.
There were holes in the walls, plaster missing in all the windows, doors torn down and the floors consisted of dirt and broken pieces of wood. There was sketchy, but easy access into the rafters, thanks to an old ladder. Overall, it definitely fit the bill for being abandoned in the 1930s. After we all had our fill of the old school house, we took off for the second stop of our little road trip: The Lake Lenore Caves.
Lake Lenore Caves
The hike to the caves was short with a lot of loose rocks. The views from all points in the path were wonderful and the caves are incredible. They are small but there are several, taking up the entirety of the mountainside. The only part of the trail that is marked is the trailhead. Once you get to the top of the staircase, near the beginning of the trail, it veers off in several directions. Sticking to one path didn't seem to be important. Once you're up there on the mountain side and see a cave or something you wanted to explore, you just work your way towards it, making your own adventure.
I would highly recommend both spots. They are within reasonably short distance of each other, taking only about 45 minutes to get from one to the other. At the end of the trip, everyone who went enjoyed themselves, even the ones who were skeptical of the abandoned school house or were afraid of heights.
The key is simply to get out there. Because once you are out, regardless of where you are, good times are bound to happen.

Tire siping is the "secret sauce" to take your tire performance to a higher level at a very minimal cost. Here's a simple explanation of the process and benefits of siping
Passenger & LT Tire
New Truck Tire
Used Truck Tire
The tread surface on your tire is made up of many smaller surfaces known as "Tread Blocks". The reason for so many surfaces is especially important when it comes to icy or wet road conditions. The Tread Blocks get their gripping power not from their many smooth surfaces but from the even more numerous sharp surrounding edges. Siping improves the job started by your tire manufacturer by providing more of these gripping edge
Siping extends the window allowed for maximum braking power by giving the existing tread a helping hand. Take a close look at the photo above and notice how the Siped tire has dozens more gripping edges.
Siping gives your tires Micro-Flexibility reducing the wear on your tire's carcass and sidewalls. This effect not only increases tire life, but will result in a smoother ride.
Heat generation is a common cause of rapid tire wear and even tire failure at times. While heat may be a natural result of friction, the effect it has on your tire can be undesirable. Siping reduces the heat and its effect on your tire by allowing it to cool. Much like your cars radiator, heat is isolated into small groups and air passes between these areas triggering a natural cooling effect.
Siping is done by placing your tires (new or used) on a specially designed machine that rotates your tires while making small virtually invisible 90 degree cuts in your tread. Although the process is actually cutting your tread – don't be alarmed, it does not hurt your tire in any way, it improves on it. Only under very close inspection can the Sipes even be seen, and you're more than likely to tell by your improved driving experience than by visual inspection. Siping will not adversely affect your tire's performance in any way. The tread on your tires retains all of its strength due to the patented spiral cutting process. This process leaves uncut areas known as Tie Bars – keeping your tread strong.

Michael B Jordan, Regina King, and Dulé Hill Recognized For Their Outstanding Performances
Truth be told, I never gave Southland a chance. The television industry was crowded with too many cops dramas and saturated with CSI-type detective shows. That all changed when I watched King as Detective Lydia Adams in an amazing episode– online. Regina King is pure excellence in this gritty cop show. Not only is her performance honest, but the show is actually great too! It has all of the ingredients that make up iconic shows like the original Law & Order. Since my breakthrough, I've caught up on all three seasons, and I'm desperately awaiting a fourth. King is nominated for Best Supporting Actress in a Drama.
Michael B Jordan was nominated for his performance as Vince on the final season of Friday Night Lights. Not only did this actor shine in his role, he has made a lasting impression in Hollywood with roles in the NBC's 'Parenthood' and the forthcoming blockbuster 'Red Tails.' He has been added to our 35 Under 35 (unpublished) list. Jordan is nominated for Best Supporting Actor in a Drama.
USA's Psych is still going strong while headed into it's sixth season. And the network has Dulé Hill to thank for that. The actor is nominated for his comedic performance as Gus, one half of a psychic crime-fighting team. Hill is nominated for Best Actor in a Comedy.
Vote for them here.

Surface sells for a much higher average price than the OEM version of Windows -- it retails for anywhere between $499 (for the lower-powered Surface RT) and $999 (for the highest-end Pro version), and that's not including the keyboard/cover.
Let's assume that Microsoft leaves a reasonable margin for its retail partners, including its own stores. Some analyst estimates put Surface Pro sales around 400,000 for the quarter, and Surface RT sales at maybe 200,000. Let's say that Microsoft collects an average of $700 per unit, including attached peripherals like the cover.
That would be $420 million. That's about 10% of Microsoft's adjusted Windows revenue of $4.62 billion (that's adjusted downward to make up for how Microsoft accounts for upgrade sales made in previous quarters). Even if those estimates are generous and the number was lower -- say 5% -- it means that Surface was material in helping Microsoft make up for a drop in PC sales this quarter. And those estimates could very well be low, which would mean that Surface was an even bigger factor in saving the quarter.
Charles Arthur breaks down the Microsoft Q3 numbers nicely and shows that Surface saved the quarter for Microsoft. But if the consumers are not coming back combined with slow sales of Surfaces, future quarters will look different.

The score was disclosed publicly this afternoon for the first time at the request of the California Stem Cell Report. Directors of the agency approved the loan last May, on a 16-1 vote, during a process that was a major departure from other funding rounds. Normally, the scores of applicants approved for funding are publicly disclosed prior to action by the full CIRM board.
James Harrison, outside counsel to the 29-member CIRM board, said in an email,
"Geron's application received a scientific score of 66. For context, it is important to understand that CIRM utilized new criteria for the Targeted Clinical Development RFA on a pilot basis. As a result, the scores in this round should not be compared to scores for applications submitted in response to other RFAs, in which the piloted criteria were not used; the Geron score is only relevant when compared to other scores for applications in the same round. Here, there were no other scored applications presented to the Board as the other applicants withdrew. As a result, CIRM concluded that the most important information was whether or not the application had been recommended for funding and that presenting the score for the Geron application would not provide meaningful information."In addition to not disclosing the score prior to board approval, CIRM failed to provide the usual summary of grant reviewer comments. The three other applicants in the $50 million round all withdrew prior to presentation to the CIRM board – another first in CIRM's grant program. And no public explanation was provided at the time for the departures from long-established procedures used for more than 400 grants and loans.
Harrison has defended the handling of the Geron application, declaring that it was needed to protect confidential information.

A mere 72 hours after President Obama delivered an encomium honoring the life of Dr. Martin Luther King, he announced his intention to pound yet another country with bombs. The oxymoron last week was noteworthy for how little attention it received. Yes, a president memorialized an anti-war activist who derided the US government as the greatest purveyor of violence in the world. Then that same president quickly proposed yet more violence this time in Syria.
Among a political press corps that rarely challenges the Washington principle of kill foreigners first, ask questions later, almost nobody mentioned the contradiction.
Even worse, as Congress now debates whether to launch yet another military campaign in the Middle East, the anti-war movement that Dr. King represented and that so vigorously opposed the last war is largely silent.
Sure, there have been a few perfunctory emails from liberal groups, but there seems to be little prospect for mass protest, raising questions about whether an anti-war movement even exists anymore.
So what happened to that movement? The shorter answer is: It was a victim of partisanship.
Thats the conclusion that emerges from a recent study by professors at the University of Michigan and Indiana University. Evaluating surveys of more than 5,300 anti-war protestors from 2007 to 2009, the researchers discovered that the many protestors who self-identified as Democrats withdrew from anti-war protests when the Democratic Party achieved electoral success in the 2008 presidential election.
