Universal Basic Income—The Foundation of a Technically Advanced Society
2 comments:
- John Grunwell said...
I support this idea in principle, but how do you answer the basic criticism that the cost of this program is presently estimated at 175% of our the United States' current federal budget?
I hope you also see that this premise idea is entirely too accepting, non-judgmental and rational to ever be accepted and promoted by the political leadership of this nation, much like drug legalization.
- June 22, 2015 at 10:36 AM
- Nicole Sallak Anderson said...
Hi there John. Just seeing this now, I've been out of the country and missed the entire discussion of my article. Yes, I am aware of the fact that the cost of this program doesn't fit in today's economic picture. But there's also a lot of government spending that goes unreported, particularly in the military expense category. Regardless, even with the removal of ALL benefits programs, and subsidies to businesses, and deep, deep cuts to the military budget, there's a gap that would have to be made up through taxation. We're not there yet, but in the second article I wrote on the subject I try to point out that if we want to truly change the world, and make room for a technically advanced society, we have to stop limiting our selves to the way we do business in the now. We have to take risks and begin to imagine a better future before we can make a better future.
As to your second point, I do see that this is not something the current leadership of our country could ever accept. I think you're right when you compare it to drug legalization. Yet state by state, that legislation is changing. The younger generation thinks differently, and their influence is beginning to be felt. The more we talk about it, the more it becomes acceptable.
I have hope that like views on recreational drugs, our views on universal basic income will also grow and become more accepted. Because in the long run, it just makes sense.

2019 Time and Attendance Software Buyer's Guide
Businesses using time and attendance software benefit from increased efficiency in workforce management. By tracking employees' hours digitally, businesses can learn more about their employees' work patterns. Time clock software also helps companies to remain compliant with government and union regulations.
Different time and attendance software programs offer a variety of features, not all of which will be necessary for all businesses. However, companies of all sizes can benefit from tracking employees' work hours digitally.
Benefits of Time Tracking Software
More and more companies are recognizing the benefits of time and attendance software. Here are some of the most important ways businesses benefit from tracking employees' work hours through a software solution:
- Improved accuracy in tracking employees' hours worked
- A centralized system for tracking and approving requests for paid time off
- Ability to compare assigned schedules to hours actually worked
- Increased efficiency in managing payroll
- Greater convenience for employees
- Assistance in ensuring compliance with labor regulations
Key Features & Modules
Software options range from basic to highly advanced, but any time and attendance software worth paying for should include several basic functions:
- Manual time entry: The defining feature of time tracking software, this function allows employees to clock in at work when they arrive and clock out during breaks or when leaving for the day.
- Tracking vacation days and absences: Time and attendance software should allow companies to keep track of employees' paid time off and how much paid time off each employee has remaining. Approved requests for time off can also be processed through time tracking software, informing employees when their requests are approved.
- Employee scheduling: Managers can assign employee schedules, and compare schedules to employees' actual time worked. Features associated with scheduling modules can also notify employees about issues such as tardiness, absences, and working overtime.
- Payroll management integration: Some time attendance software programs have their own built-in payroll applications. If that's not the case, the software should be able to integrate to business' payroll software. This critical feature allows paychecks to be disbursed accurately and quickly.
- Workforce management: Tracking employees' hours helps to ensure that they are taking breaks in accordance with legal and company policies, producing documentation of businesses' compliance.
Other useful functions that many software solutions offer:
- Mobile capacity: Mobile integration allows employees to clock in and out of work on their own personal devices. This feature is particularly useful for companies whose employees work remotely some or all of the time. GPS tracking features may be included.
- Job costing projection:Data obtained through time and attendance software can help businesses to more accurately project labor costs for future projects by using data from comparable initiatives.
Critical Considerations for Buyers
When selecting a time tracking software, there are numerous questions that buyers need to ask in order to find the optimal solution. Before making a purchase, ask yourself some basic questions.
- What features must be included in a solution? Do you just need to track employees' hours, or will you require more advanced functionality that includes features such as a biometric log-in mechanism?
- How much money do you intend to spend on time and attendance software? Note that a more advanced program will cost $600 or more. But in setting a budget for this purchase, keep in mind that you will be saving money on payroll by utilizing time tracking software.
- What is the typical lifespan of time and attendance software? When will you have to upgrade?
- How many employees will be using this system? Ideally, how would they access the system-through a computer or mobile device?
- How much employee training will be required to implement this solution?
- Who will be responsible for administering the system?
- What is the process for installing the solution? How long will the process take, and what supports will be available?
- How does this software integrate with other solutions already in use, such as the payroll system?
- When will your business begin to see a return on the investment?
- Does this time tracking software generate reports? Which data is included in these reports?
- How much customer support does the vendor provide after purchase? Will the vendor be easily accessible in the event of a problem? Are support staff well-prepared to meet your business needs?
Asking yourself these questions should give you an idea of your requirements in a time tracking software solution.
Types of Solutions
Many different types of solutions are available. Here are some types of time and attendance software that you can select:
Many industries have specific requirements for scheduling and tracking hours. There are a number of industry-specific software programs available to meet the unique needs for restaurants, retailers, and other business types.
Software as a Service
With the SaaS model, businesses pay a monthly subscription fee to access software. The software itself is web-based. The SaaS model comes with many advantages, including greater flexibility in upgrading or switching software programs.
In contrast to a SaaS model, on-premises software is installed on computers at the business itself. When using on-premises software, businesses are less vulnerable to network connectivity problems.
Hybrid Model
A hybrid software solution uses aspects of both the SaaS and on-premises software models. Software will still be installed on business-owned computers, but data will also be accessible on the cloud.
Vendor Landscape
Large ERP vendors such as Oracle were among the first to offer Human Resources functions through their software. However, more recently products specifically focused on HR and time tracking functions have emerged. Now, this software has become a category independent of ERP.
Currently, a number of time tracking and attendance software solutions are available on the market, ranging from programs for small businesses to enterprise-scale solutions. Kronos, SuccessFactors, and Ultimate Software are major vendors in this space. Workday is a newer vendor that has received recognition for its innovations.
While major players continue to be a force to be reckoned with in this space, there are also a growing number of companies who serve niche markets, such as small businesses or specific industries. Today, buyers of time and attendance software have a wide array of options available.
Industry Trends
Time and attendance software is a quickly evolving market. Here are some of the most important trends happening right now:
- More products are providing multiple HR functions within one software program, providing greater convenience for HR teams.
- SaaS solutions are becoming increasingly popular among all types of businesses.
- Companies are seeking software solutions that allow them to customize the program according to its needs.
- Predictive analytics are now recognized as an indispensable tool that can help businesses make strategic decisions.
- The ability to use time tracking software on mobile devices is more important than ever.
- Mobile time tracking applications do more than simply track hours. Many systems can take over the functions of identifying swipe cards, keys, and badges.
- The most advanced systems use biometrics (like facial recognition or retinal scanning) to log in users. While this technology doesn't come cheaply, it successfully prevents employees from using a coworker to clock them into work.

Cubo gelatinoso by Manu Saez
As always remember you may find spoilers, so if you are playing the campaign or think about playing it you probably do not want to read more beyond this point (or perhaps you want, who knows).
To write the chronicle of this session I was helped by Laura, who acted as a notary during its development.
|Original image of the cave by absent_friend_79 (Pixabay / CC0)
Cubo gelatinoso by Manu Saez
The situation was very complicated for Flynn and Luna, because a gelatinous cube is not a monster to be despised like that (imagine a shaky and semitransparent cube with parts of a human skeleton and a corroded sword inside, undoubtely the remains of a not very lucky adventurer), so they had to run to avoid the slightest touch from the creature and passed in front of some closed doors until discovering they are heading in to a passage leading to a cul-de-sac with another door at the end, and from inside that door there were shouts...
|Ogre by tinyfroglet (CC BY 2.0)

Meanwhile Alanna and Hassba, who rested inside the pantry, went down to the lower level of the complex and found Belacqua (the half-elf magician who met them in The Drunken Goblin inn in session #21), who appeared in the complex after going out of the blue light fountain, just as it had happened with the new characters that have joined the campaign. After this happy reunion they continued exploring the passages carved in the rock and reached a cave with voices of ogres and humans coming from within, arguing about what it seemed a plan and achieving to understand the words "intruders" and "promises of gold", prompting them to act and combat these new enemies and although Hassba was not so successful in performing his profession (he failed one of his assassination attempts hidden in shadows) and were injured during combat (healing themselves after the combat) they could beat them.
As I said the situation of Flynn and Luna was not very promising and clearly wasn't the time to face the gelatinous cube, so they decided to open the door and had the unpleasant surprise of finding a torture chamber with a ckleric of Penumbra and two ogres as well as one of their victims... They were out of the frying pan and into the fire, so it was not a matter of staying there for a long time and, demonstrating incredible agility (what a good dice rolls!) they achieved to evade the monster who found himself face to face with the cleric and the ogres, occurring the inevitable fight as you can imagine.
|Fire-hell-inferno-flame by Skitterphoto (Pexels / CC0)
After a narrow escape from the cube Flynn and Luna retraced their steps and get interested again in the little man they had seen surrounded by mountains of paper in the cave discovered in the previous session. The little man was a wizard who attacked them with a Fireball spell which seriously affected Luna leaving her with 0 Hit Points and disapearing afterwards, but Luna, recovered thanks to one of the clerical spells of Flynn again manifested one of her misteryous abilities and the little man appeared again with nose bleeding, moment in which they took advantage to kill him.
After the combat Flynn and Luna had the opportunity to examine the large accumulation of papers in the cave and discovered something that caught their attention and recognized as a really useful element that could help them in their mission: Hanging from one of the walls... there was a map of the underground complex!, so they did not hesitate to take it and flee quickly, because the gelatinous cube could appear at any time since probably the torturers could not finish with such a dangerous creature.
Regarding Alanna, Hassba and Belacqua they continue to explore the zone and discover a cave with a cristal sphere resting on a pedestal inside which without any doubt it was the same as the one taken by the dark elf while escaping from the The Drunken Goblin. Without deciding to enter they continued to explore and discovered a lair of giant spiders they tried to avoid but them, atracted by the corpses near, appeared and the characters are forced to fight managing to overcome them, so they could search the treasure and personal blongings of previous victims in the lair and rest while in the distance they heard a strange chant, a chant adoring Penumbra...
Flynn and Luna, who also are listening the same chant, flee from the gelatinous cube moving unstoppable through the maze of tunnels and finally they manage to find the rest of the group (to everyone's joy), but it is not the time of great joys, because the cube certainly seems unbeatable, but it happened that Alanna, with a sudden inspiration, remembers that the cube's weak spots are fire (wow, we go back to one of the topics of my group of players!) and conventional weapons, so they have the means and the opportunity to defeat the creature.
While her partners are prepared to fight with the use of arcs and other attacks from a distance Alanna, caught by a strange sensation, separates from the group without the rest of them noticing and enters the cave of the sphere and looks inisde it, moment in which she receives a vision (you know, the time when the referee writes a note and hand it to he player and the rest of the group begins to stare at them with curiosity and suspicion). However Alanna does something else because she lifts the sphere from the pedestal... which is a mistake, since immediately the shadows begin to grow around her and heavy steps and the roar of a great beast are heared, a beat that without further delay begins to attack her taking advantage of the prevailing darkness. While the group is attacking the cube Belacqua also tries to enter the cave but the darkness has solidified making an impenetrable barrier so, using her infravision, she discovers a dragon-like being who, in addition to trying to bite her partner, also tries to skewer her with a tail ending in a stinger that looks really dangerous, but this not happens because the half-elf wizard is guiding the movements of Alanna so she evades the attacks and finally defeat the beast, moment in which the magical darkness that surrounds her vanishes and can leave the cave without hindrance.
While this was happening the characters have managed to destroy the gelatinous cube (although they they had not taken the loot the creature might have, you know the internal fluids of these beings are somewhat acid) and the praising song to Penumbra still rumbles through the walls of the underground complex...
What will happen in the next session?

A PICTURE of beauty and bounty graced the Davao River and Tionko Football Field on Friday, August 19, as the city's 11 tribes once again paraded their culture and uniqueness through the Subang Sinugdanan (literally meaning, the river where it all started).
The Subang Sinugdanan or the Fluvial Float parade marks the Indigenous People's Day event of the Kadayawan Festival.
The colorful boats, which are uniquely different from each other, kicked off the parade at the Madapo Hills going to Tionko field along Quimp Boulevard for the Panagtagbo ceremony.
As per advice of Vice Mayor Paolo Duterte, this year's Kadayawan Festival was indeed taken over by the 11 tribes.
The Deputy Mayors along with their representatives for the Hiyas sa Kadayawan event starred the boats while they dance to the beat of their traditional music.
At the Tionko field, where the tribes met and shared their respective delicacies, unity was apparent. Not only were they united despite differnces in their cultures but religions as well.
Art Boncato, co-chair for the Kadayawan Festival, was thankful for the success of the event.
While Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio failed to join in the festivity due to her sensitive condition being seven-week pregnant with triplets, Boncato recognized her contribution for the success of the event. (CCC)

Good Oil: Yaris gets the heat treatment
Search Driven for vehicles for sale
A Toyota Yaris that will rival the output of the Volkswagen Polo GTI and Ford Fiesta ST? Ha! Good one!
No wait; it's true. Well, we think it's true.
Now Toyota is making its comeback in the World Rally Championship, a "street" version of the Yaris WRC competition car is almost a given. And at the Geneva motor show in March, it will be showing one off in the metal.
What's more, it's been developed by the in-house team that brought us the Toyota 86 sports coupe, working alongside the recently launched Gazoo Racing performance division of the Japanese manufacturer. Which is surely no bad thing.
Images show the "hot" Yaris — which is based on a three-door version our market doesn't receive — as featuring updated front and rear bumpers, a boot spoiler and a rear diffuser with an exhaust pipe through the middle. The big guards and wings of the gravel monster version have, obviously, been discarded for the civilian model.
There's no word yet on power figures, but it's hoped the hot hatch will walk the talk. The Fiesta ST and Polo GTi have been mentioned as benchmarks, along with Francophile pocket rockets, the Peugeot 208 GTI and Renault Clio RS.
With the Yaris in dire need of an excitement injection — and a brand-new Suzuki Swift on the horizon — it'd be great if Toyota New Zealand saw red momentarily and brought the diminutive hatch here.
But there is no word yet on whether the street fighter Yaris (that's not its official name, but it would be a good start) will be available as a right-hand drive model. Without parts to support a three-door version available in New Zealand either, odds are we won't see it here.
CHiP off the old block
Just when you'd presumed Hollywood had run out of 1970s/80s TV shows to remake for the big screen, here comes the CHiPS movie no one was asking for.
Starring two faces you've seen before but can't quite place (Dax Shepard as Officer Jon Baker and Michael Pena as Officer Frank Poncherello), the new movie looks to be taking on the comedy/drama shenanigans of the original series, but adds the usual blow-'em-up Hollywood set-pieces. And lots of guns (in the original TV show, nice guy officers Baker and Poncherello rarely pulled their guns).
Actually though, the idea of a feature length CHiPS film has been floating around for a while.
It was almost a case of art imitating life imitating art in 2005 when it was announced That 70s Show cast member Wilmer Valderrama — who played foreign exchange student Fez in the sitcom — would be taking on the Erik Estrada role in a CHiPS movie.
There was a certain serendipitous element to this, as in one episode of the TV show, the "most likely to" section of Fez's year book was shown to contain the phrase "most likely to appear as Ponch in a musical version of CHiPS".
That reboot never happened, although half a decade before, Turner Network Television managed to reunite the original small screen cast (albeit greyer at the temples) for a made-for-TV movie called CHiPS '99, that we confess we've never seen and don't wish to.
The new film, which is out in the US in a couple of months, isn't even set in the early 1980s. The period time setting didn't work for the ill-fated Starsky and Hutch reboot of a few years ago, but seeing the freeways of LA once again clogged with all manner of 1970s/80s American iron would have at least diverted motorhead moviegoers from what looks to be a phoned-in missed opportunity of a film.
The rides formerly owned by Prince
Court records have revealed the contents of secretive recording star Prince's garage. The list, issued by the probate court in the late artist's home state of Minnesota, is often light on detail, but does give us an interesting new angle: when it came to motoring miscellanea, the Purple One appeared to be a bit of a hoarder.
Rather than the sort of Euro exotica you might be expecting, the singer/songwriter was a patriotic supporter of the American auto industry, with nine of his 14 cars built by Detroit manufacturers.
Perhaps reflective of a quieter patch in his career in recent years, the newest car in his collection — a Lincoln MKT SUV — was first registered in 2011. Other than that, Prince had a penchant for 90s metal, with a Ford Thunderbird, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Lincoln Town Car, Plymouth Prowler and two BMWs — an 850 and a Z3 roadster — all hailing from one of the least memorable periods in motoring.
A third BMW (a lovely 633 CSi) and an unnamed Mercedes-Benz of 2010 vintage are the other foreign cars in his garage, though there's a Honda motorbike. And this will make fans happy: the original Purple Rain and Graffiti Bridge motorbikes still resided in his collection all these years later.
In all though, it's a rather strange assemblage of vehicles that would have made sense only to the man who collected them. But when it comes to Prince, that's not out of character.

Transcend, Manifest, Celebrate
September 17th
"If you do a good job for others, you heal yourself at the same time,
because a dose of joy is a spiritual cure. It transcends all barriers."
— Ed Sullivan
Three new vision journals for Madison, Katie and Maria — girlfriends who are working toward big goals in life. (Junior high! High school cheer!! Citizenship!) Making these last night felt as good as a long, hard run after a week of no exercise. I've got to make more time to be creative, even when busy. I'm not honoring myself otherwise. Sharing the vision journal idea has been so satisfying. I'm so glad so many of you have received yours in the mail or created one on your own! Luke 11:9-12 gives me extra skip in my step when doing this kind of internal housekeeping.

Kerianne McGovern
Where were you born and raised?
San Diego, CA
What's a short story around the biggest transition you've faced in life?
After being laid off during the 2008 housing crisis in San Diego, I had to transition into a full time college student. The shift in work being my biggest priority to my education was an adjustment, since school didn't pay the rent. Although it was tough, I wouldn't change that experience for the world. I was able to study abroad and learn in a way that wouldn't have been possible if I was still employed.
What's the one piece of advice you'd give a younger you?
Keep an open mind and learn as much as you can, from as many people as you can. Never stop learning.
Your Personal Why?
Cherish the life you have, because you only get O-N-E.
How does your Why drive you to be a part of the THF Ecosystem?
Life is so precious, and showing our Fellows hope that their life will continue to have meaning, and they will be successful outside of the military. Helping them identify their desires and goals, and seeing them being achieved is what drives me.
Top 5 Strengths Finder Strengths and how they influence you?
My strengths are what make me a successful executer. Whether it be my personal life or my professional life, those closest to me know they can count on me to get the job done.
Military Connection or Why do you respect Special Operators?
Both my grandfathers and my dad all served in the Navy. I was born in raised in San Diego and was taught to appreciate our service men and women who sacrifice their lives to protect our freedom. Being able to help our SOF operators through their transition, using my skills and experience, is something I am so honored to be a part of.
Favorite THF Value, and why?
Plan for achievement. The executer in me takes pride in having a concrete plan for everything we do. Being able to to move and pivot when plans change are all a part of the achievement.
Area/Industry of expertise.
As the Director of Operations at THF I am responsible for the following areas of the business: Finance, Accounts Payable, Payroll, HR, Insurance, Compliance, Marketing, Public Relations, Project Management, BOD Secretary, Legal, and Programs.

LGO Energy says that its most recently completed well, GY-669, at the Goudron Field in Trinidad was perforated on 23 January in the C-sands and is now flowing at a stabilized, but highly restricted, rate of 365 barrels of oil per day of 41 degree API water-free oil through a 10/32" choke with an average well-head flowing pressure of 1,900 psi. Over the last 48 hours the well has flowed at an average rate of 445 bopd. The initial calculated open-hole flow rate of the well is approximately 1,000 bopd.
Neil Ritson, LGO's Chief Executive, commented, "Well GY-669 is a further highly productive well from our eight well drilling campaign in 2014 and when combined with future drilling will allow us to maintain Group production in excess of 2,000 bopd for many years. Preparations for the 2015 drilling campaign at Goudron are now well underway and we expect to recommence the drilling of additional new C-sand wells as soon as the next drilling pad is completed."

Logo & Brand Design
The founder of GenericBid was looking to create a memorable logo that represented an auction website for generic pharmaceuticals. This brand idea would later become trademarked for use and appears on various marketing swag and brochures.
A simple name logo intercepted by pills with a playful overtone was chosen as the logo for GenericBid. The colors are cool to represent ease with the exception of the word "Bid" which signifies the urgency to bid on an item as the user would see fit for their pharmacy.
The logo is now used on the company's websites, marketing materials and promotional giveaways to drive users to the website.

Jayson Stark of ESPN.com reports that the Philadelphia Phillies are close to a deal with soon-to-be-free-agent left-hander Cole Hamels.
[blackbirdpie url="https://twitter.com/jaysonst/status/223608708301733888″]
The offer is thought to be substantial, a stark contrast to a franchise that has never signed a pitcher to a contract that included more than the five guaranteed years.
The biggest so far being when the team inked Cliff Lee to a five-year, $120 million deal–a contract that established a then-record average annual value for a pitcher of $24 million per season.
Nevertheless, Philly will need to sharpen its pencil if they want to keep the most winningest pitcher they have cultivated in the past 40 years. All while trying to stay under the$178 million luxury-tax threshold.
Both Phillies' GM Ruben Amaro Jr. and Hamels' agent, John Boggs, declined to comment on any aspect of the negotiations, but speculation is that whatever is offered will no doubt rival or surpass the five-year, $112.5 million extension signed by San Francisco right-hander Matt Cain in April.
The club will have to hurry if they wish to lock their franchise southpaw before the July 31 trade deadline, and I would not be surprised if the Phils end up breaking their own precedent by offering Hamels six or more years.

Grilled Fish At The Gift Tilapia Restaurant
I am too busy to blog for now, so jammed up with finals and presentations") So i decided to take my cousins post")hehe.... so yea here's the post")") Some sort of business my dad ventured in lately")
Okay, I have tonnes to post about, so expect more food stuffs coming this way real fast! Heh! For now, I will be posting the latest ones and slowly work my way back. Hopefully I can get all these out quick enough! *crosses fingers* This time around, I went to my uncle's newly opened restaurant in Seremban! It's called "The Gift Tilapia Restaurant" which specializes in - you guessed it right - Tilapia dishes!
The premise of the restaurant. Very simple set up, but don't judge a book by its cover just yet! *wink* The restaurant's address:
No. 11, Lorong Merbok 6/1
Taman Bunga Blossom
70100 Seremban
The menu...very simple dishes as of now, but there will be more to come! For now, let me show you what we had:
Vegetables...standard fare, blanched lettuce with oyster sauce and a little bit of oil. Simple yet yummy!
Stir fried bean sprouts...also another simple dish.
Then comes the highlight of the day! Yummy fish! Remember the green tilapia that I mentioned in this post? Well, this fish is the main attraction in the restaurant! This is the Portugese grilled fish...a whole fish grilled but still tender and spread with a yummy 'secret recipe' chilli paste that will have you adding more and more rice! The dish is topped with fresh lady's fingers.(a MUST in this dish! The chillies go very well with the lady's finger!)
Not to toot my uncle's horn and stuff, but the fish is just finger-licking good! Not only is it fresh, but the meat just falls away from the bone when you take it up (it's THAT tender!) and when you put it in the mouth, it melts away like pudding...yummmmm! Plus, you don't get that earthy taste that we normally get with the Tilapia here, so it's a win-win situation! *grins*
Another variation of the grilled fish...this is a simple, soya sauce version. Topped with sliced ginger and spring onions it's perfect for those who are not fond of spicy food. You can just taste the 'sweetness' of the fish meat in this dish because the sauce brings that out. If the fish is not fresh, you'll never be able to taste that!
Last but not least, we had the salted prawns! My uncle raises prawns in his aquaculture farm too, so these prawns are guaranteed fresh! Seasoned with a generous helping of salt, the prawns are wrapped in an aluminum foil packet and subsequently grilled. When it's done, the packet is ripped open and you get THIS! You'd have to remove the salt of course, since it's just a seasoning, but the prawns are SOOOOO good! Simple concept as it is, you can't beat fresh food cooked the proper way...*grins*
So, if you're ever in the neighborhood, drop by The Gift Tilapia Restaurant! You'll never think the same about tilapia dishes again! *wink*

Microsoft Makes a Play for Novell UsersBy Channel Insider Staff | Print
Desktop-as-a-Service Designed for Any Cloud ? Nutanix Frame
Microsoft is out to capture NetWare customers before they have a chance to migrate to Linux.Microsoft Corp.'s Linux point man is at it again.
This week, Martin Taylor, Microsoft's general manager for platform strategy, isn't touting any new Microsoft-funded studies aimed to demonstrate that Microsoft's total-cost-of-ownership numbers beat those of its Linux competitors.
Instead, he is targeting one of the newer and increasingly powerful Linux players, Novell, by crusading to capture NetWare defectors before they have a chance to migrate to Linux.
What will be the outcome of Microsoft's programs? Read what David Coursey has to say.
Microsoft is offering U.S.-based NetWare customers a voucher worth $600 toward channel-partner migration services for each NetWare server they are willing to convert to a Windows Server 2003 one.
(The fine print? Each of these Windows Server 2003 systems must include 50 client-access licenses. The maximum value redeemable per customer is 25 systems, worth a total of $15,000. The Microsoft offer lasts until May 1, 2005, or until the first 1,000 redemptions are made, whichever comes sooner.)
Microsoft also is offering NetWare customers considering moving to Windows Server one online training voucher and unlimited technical support via newsgroups at no cost.
"Novell, with its SuSE [Linux] acquisition created a new wave of momentum for themselves," Taylor said. "But they also created a bit of an inflection point," in terms of requiring NetWare users to choose whether to upgrade to Linux or switch to an entirely new platform.
"The NetWare installed base feels a little like the NT 4.0 and Unix installed bases," Taylor said. "They know they are going to move to a new platform at some point. But the question is, to what?"
Taylor said Microsoft's decision to launch the NetWare program one week after announcing that it had settled most of its antitrust complaints with Novell was purely coincidental. He said that Microsoft had been working on the details of the migration program for several months and "we knew we needed to get going."

Lapis Ring
I really like the gold fill band and weave pattern. Otherwise it seems just a bit boring to me. It's missing some kind of pop.
Anybody have ideas to make it pop? All I can think of is to oxidize the bright silver to black and see if that gives me some wow factor.
7 comments:
You're on a roll! I think oxidizing the silver is a very worthy experiment...because any piece I see with black silver and gold looks quite dramatic. Also, the spirals on a similar ring (2 rings down on your blog) really made the ring stand out!).ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJanuary 30, 2012 at 10:39 AM
Add one of your leafy/viney things down the front. I love the stone. You're doing lovely things, Ms. Angsty!ReplyDelete
I agree with the oxidizing, but I oxidize everything!! How about some small lapis beads on the side or across the top at an angle. You inspire me!!ReplyDelete
Deborah! I played with the ring during my lunch hour and decided exactly the same thing. A row of small beads at an angle across the top and the bottom. Your idea will really suit this ring and finish it well:)ReplyDelete
Thanks for the comment!
Hey! I finally made the hinged box! It is faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar from perfect. In fact if you were the maker, you would have trashed it. But for me it is a success, simply because it works! Yayyyy!!! This poor box which was supposed to be a bottle, and then turned into some kind of a box is quite a mess, with me forgetting how I had woven that first bottle, then remembering again when I started the lid...lol. It is now tumbling...will post pictures tomorrow. Thank you for your WONDERFUL tutorial! Because of the tut I could make the hinge and the clasp. :-)))ReplyDelete

Mary, sigh...what can I say, you are always surprising me with your designs. As always, something beautiful and unique.ReplyDelete

Mary, can't wait to see it with the beads. I thought I would try a ring... I think I have forgotten how to weave, been doing a lot of enameling and my fingers feel 'fat'... boy how quick we can forget. Now back to it!!ReplyDelete

Vitoria Setubal vs Sporting Lisbon : Friday at 22:30 Setubal receives the visit of Sporting in a match of round number 29 of the Primeira Liga.
Vitoria Setubal ensured the presence of the first stage of football in Portugal for another season, it currently occupies 9th place with 35 points. Five of these points have been made over the last three games, which include meetings in a duel with FC Porto ended in a draw 1-1.
In fact, Vitoria is a team that depends confrontations than at home, where he managed to collect 24 points, one of the few teams that received less than ten goals in the host posture.
On the other side, Sporting Lisbon is our favorite to win this match, it this season won on this ground, 1-0, but in a match of the Cup of Portugal. Sporting is in a very good shape, the Lisbon team comes after seven wins and a draw in the last eight meetings, but more importantly, they managed to score at least one goal in each of those matches.
Moreover, in the previous stage, Sporting visited Boavista team ehere they managed to win with 4 – 0, remaining in third place in the championship with 60 points, eight fewer than leader to date.
Vitoria Setubal vs Sporting Lisbon : Probable Teams
Setubal : Varela – Fernandes – Venacio – Cardoso – Pinto – Bonilha – Agu – Amaral – Costinha – Carvalho – Edinho
Sporting Lisabona : Patricio – Schelotto – Coates – Semedo – Zeegalaar – Prodence – Carvalho – Silva – Cesar – Ruiz – Dost
Three times this teams met two this season, Sporting leading 2-1 and I think it is more likely to achieve another success, especially they are among teams that are evolving at the highest level at this time.
Betting Tip : Sporting Lisbon To Win

New Fangled Light Bulbs
Incandescent light bulbs are being phased out. Thomas Edison changed the world with his electric light bulbs and they have stood the test of time for over a century, but today there are many new types of light bulbs showing up on retailer's shelves. You may or may not have heard, but the old incandescent light bulbs are finally being phased out. Some types of incandescent bulbs such as appliance, colored, three-way and other less commonly used bulbs are exempt and will still be available. I imagine Mr. Edison would be amazed and enthralled at some of the new lighting technology that is now available. From halogen to compact fluorescent (cfl) to light emitting diode (l.e.d.), the choices can be bewildering. (An l.e.d. light bulb is pictured above). Fortunately we non-scientists don't have to understand how they work, we just have to get used to them. And even though change can be difficult, the new bulbs are vastly superior to the old ones in many ways. Some of the new bulbs are tougher, last much longer, and sip electricity instead of guzzling it. Since lighting can represent as much as 25% of a typical homes electricity use, using bulbs that are much, much more efficient is a big deal. Not to mention a money saver. The old incandescent bulbs wasted about 90% of the energy they use in the form of heat. One of the worst burns I ever saw was when my sister was around 10 years old and got burned by an incandescent light bulb. She fell off the bed and knocked over a lamp. Unfortunately, when she landed on the floor her thigh pressed against the bare bulb, and she was in an awkward position and couldn't get up for a second or two. The bulb caused a severe burn that turned into a blister the size of a goose egg. Cfl's and l.e.d. bulbs don't get hot like this. L.E.D. bulbs barely even get warm.
Compact fluorescent bulbs (cfl's) Cfl's have been around for a while now so you've surely seen them. They're kind of funny looking. A typical incandescent bulb might cost $7.23 per year to operate (in electrical usage). An equivalent cfl bulb will only cost about $1.57 to operate for the same time period. Also, cfl's last about 10 times longer. Early cfl's had a pause after you flipped the switch before they would come on. They also tended to be rather dim for the first minute or so. The newer cfl's don't have these problems. There also are new cfl's that are dimmable.
L.E.D. bulbs L.e.d. bulbs are the newest bulbs out. They cost more, but prices will come down. Even at today's prices they will save you a lot of money because they are so very efficient and they last so long. That same incandescent bulb that cost $7.23 in electricity to run will only cost about 96 cents a year if it is an l.e.d.. That's an incredible difference. Also it will probably last about 25 times as long. That gives it a life of around 25,000 hours. New types of l.e.d. bulbs are coming out. They are now available for chandeliers, flood lamps, spot lights, night lights, and motion sensor security lights. There is one model that is a combination night light (it turns itself on and off), power failure light (it turns itself on when the electricity goes off, powered by it's built-in rechargeble battery), and flashlight (you can unplug it from the wall, and fold up the a.c. plugs). Pretty high tech stuff for a light bulb! There are even children's night lights that project an image of your child's favorite cartoon characters on the wall. L.e.d. bulbs have instant on and some models are dimmable.
What size bulb should I buy? Because the new bulbs are so efficient, a 60 watt bulb is not a 60 watt bulb anymore. Most of the new bulbs have packaging that states the equivalent size of old bulb that the new one is replacing. For example: "same light output as a 60 watt incandescent". If the package doesn't have this information, it will probably have the light output (measured in lumens). The following table lists the approximate light output for common old incandescent bulbs:
40 watt- 450 lumens
60 watt- 800 lumens
75 watt- 1100 lumens
100 watt- 1600 lumens
What color of light would you like? The color of the new light bulbs is listed in degrees Kelvin, but there is also a word description which may be easier to remember for most people. The following table lists some of the typical colors:
2700 * K (Kelvin)- "Soft white" (Warm yellowish light that most of us are used to from the old incandescent bulbs)
3000 * K- "Warm white" (Close to the light quality of soft white, but a bit less yellow)
3500 * K- "Bright white" (Whiter still, with less yellow)
5000 * K- "Natural daylight" (As the description implies, similar to sunlight)
Personally, I'm so used to the color of the old bulbs that the daylight bulbs don't look right to me. I prefer the soft or warm white color.
Give them a try If you're still using old incandescent bulbs, give the new ones a try. Once you get used to them you'll never want to go back. --- Kim Christensen

Vee Bell is certain of one irrefutable truth—her sister's friend Sophie didn't kill herself. She was murdered.
Vee knows this because she was there. Everyone believes Vee is narcoleptic, but she doesn't actually fall asleep during these episodes: When she passes out, she slides into somebody else's mind and experiences the world through that person's eyes. She's slid into her sister as she cheated on a math test, into a teacher sneaking a drink before class. She learned the worst about a supposed "friend" when she slid into her during a school dance. But nothing could have prepared Vee for what happens one October night when she slides into the mind of someone holding a bloody knife, standing over Sophie's slashed body.
Vee desperately wishes she could share her secret, but who would believe her? It sounds so crazy that she can't bring herself to tell her best friend, Rollins, let alone the police. Even if she could confide in Rollins, he has been acting off lately, more distant, especially now that she's been spending more time with Zane.
Enmeshed in a terrifying web of secrets, lies, and danger and with no one to turn to, Vee must find a way to unmask the killer before he or she strikes again. (summary from Goodreads)
A fast-paced narrative, Slide is an original debut novel full of mystery with a small touch of paranormal.
To everyone around her, Vee suffers from narcolepsy. In actuality, when Vee passes out, she 'slides' into the consciousness of another person, seeing what they see, experiencing what they do. All it takes is contact with something another person has impacted on emotionally - a bracelet braided as a token for a best friend, a tshirt bought for a crush, a page torn from a calendar as a threat. No matter how Vee avoids contact or sleep, however, she can't stop sliding - and every slide reveals more secrets about those around her. When Vee slides into a killer standing over the body of her sisters friend, her world changes. Everyone thinks Sophie committed suicide, but Vee knows the truth. A killer is still out there and whoever they are, they plan to strike again. As secrets pile up, Vee doesn't know who to turn to - her father who receives mysterious calls and has hidden files? The new boy, Zane, who Vee can't help but be drawn to? Her best friend, Rollins, who never lets her visit his house and avoids her the closer she gets to Zane? Everyone has a secret...but who is willing to kill over theirs?
I was thoroughly intrigued by the summary of Slide and in some ways it's more than I expected and in others not quite so much. Hathaway has created a unique concept with Vee and her 'sliding' and it's this that immediately caught my attention. It adds just that little bit of the supernatural to the contemporary mystery that Slide mostly is. The wonder for me is that Vee's sliding really just is - there's no apparent cause or explanation, despite some questioning of whether it's genetic and possibly passed along from her mother. The air of "it just is" surrounding Vee's gift - or curse, depending on your standpoint - allowed it to seem not really otherworldly or extraordinary at all. The who, what, where, when, how of Vee's ability certainly isn't the focus of the story and for the most part I enjoyed that aspect. I can't help but wish some questions regarding it were answered, however. It felt to me at times that Hathaway was leading us to believe it was passed from her mother and that her father possibly knew more then he let on...but such ideas went nowhere, and so I was left somewhat floundering for more. Unfortunately, it's this feeling that resonates after finishing Slide.
I really did find Slide an enjoyable read, but turning that last page I couldn't help but feel something was missing. Hathaway wraps up the mystery of Sophie's killer completely, and while I'm glad of that, it felt too clean and too quick for me to be 100% satisfied. Early on the mystery kept me on the edge of the seat - Vee's sliding into the killer was seriously creepy! - but as clues began to be revealed the truth became blatantly obvious, to the point that it was only Vee's finally discovering the truth and the confrontation that would bring that peaked my anticipation. I was intrigued by the killer's identity and motivation, sure, but I suppose I was just expecting a bigger climax when the truth came to light. There simply wasn't quite the confrontation I was hoping for - or any at all, for that matter, and so for me, the ending of Slide fell flat. There was such a build up and where I was eagerly awaiting an explosion the story instead fizzled.
Slide's strengths lay in Hathaway's characters and the relationships between Vee and those around her. It is these that increase the tension of the book and had me wanting to discover all of the truths. Hathaway ensures that despite any unusual circumstances, you will connect with Vee. Her being unable to reveal her secret but being privy to so many else's is a weight that readers really feel. Especially as it also allows for an insight into secondary characters we may not have had otherwise. Every 'slide' added another layer of intensity to Vee's story, laying bare Hathaway's character's struggles and motivations in vivid and emotional ways, which also reverberated through their relationships with Vee. Practically every character and relationship throughout Slide is just that bit more complex then it initially appears to be and very much flawed. They're real. I adored so much of the emotion Hathaway brings to them. The struggle of connection between Vee's father and his daughters, as well as the fragile but burgeoning strength of Vee's relationship with her sister, Mattie. The attraction between Vee and Zane that sizzles at times, full of all of the awkwardness and hope of first love. The quirky yet solid friendship between Vee and Rollins was my most favourite of Slide, their simple but impactful miscommunication causing my heart to hollow out. There's such life to these characters and it was this that made Slide for me where the mystery and climax of the story didn't quite hold up.
While Slide didn't quite reach it's potential in all ways for me, it has characters and emotions that shine. If this sounds like a read you'd be interested in checking out, I'd certainly recommend you at least give it a go.

It may seem forever since we got to the UK, but we haven't travelled far!
We are now at Radford Semele, quite close to Leamington Spa, and that is quite close to Warwick; in fact, all three towns form a rather large conurbation which stretches along the canal and outwards.
Radford Semele is slightly away from the canal where we are, as there is a big park beside us on the towpath side (not readily accessible from it though as there is a bit of a river in between) and a farm across the cut. The only disturbances are cyclists and runners ripping past on the towpath, and walkers who are more sedate and don't expect you to move aside based on some whacky notion that speed equals right of way. For heaven''s sake, they are right next to a waterway where the slower your craft, the higher your priority! But I guess, we are not that far from roads where the very nature of speed and the power it bestows on heavy moving objects assigns it right of way simply through the common sense of slower moving objects keeping out of their way ...
Still and all, I do rather enjoy the fantasy of being nuts enough to poke the handle of my windlass through the spokes of the more aggressively 'speed has the lead' brigade on the towpath.
But to be honest, we have spent most of our time for the last two days either in the boat (yesterday as it was decidedly a rest day with occasional showers of rain, bread to bake, an opus for David to complete and a report and memo for me to finish off) or doing out and back trips from Wetherspoons in Leamington Spa on Saturday.
We needed the rest day yesterday as we had a couple of days of harder work than we have done so far this season. Well, that is not surprising as we are now on a journey in a convoy with Mick and Julia on Unknown No 3 and Laughing John on a truly unknown/unnamed (as far as I can tell) boat. And Mick and Julia are FAST!! That Julia is the most efficient lock wheeler we've ever met, and she still has time to chat and laugh and encourage hire boaters and help single handers. It's the bike and the strong right arm, I reckon ...
We left Jaq Biggs after sharing lunch on the towpath in the reaches between Braunston and Napton on Thursday and got all the way to Long Itchington by 6pm. That was a long afternoon - 13 locks, I think. John and Mick shared the locks and David and I were ahead of them and there was no other boat for us to share with, so David did all 13 on his own apart from the help Julia gave him as she cycled backwards and forwards between and ahead of us and back to the guys behind us, sorting us all out.
Dinner was wine/beer and nibbles and lots of laughter on board Waka Huia - lunch was so huge that none of us could face another meal.
On Friday it was a shorter journey here to Radford Semele. Julia organised a hireboat who had somehow managed to get between Mick and John to come and share with us. That made the locking much easier - the guy was a good steerer although it was his first time, and the two 12 year old boys on board were good on the locks with David. I was impressed that the woman was still wearing make up and had manicured nails - them with the white tips and high polish. I did have to go and get my clippers to cut my ragged talons and clean the rope grubbiness and general grime out of them ...
John had to go back and help his son in law demolish a chimney over the weekend, so we fetched up here on Friday arvo, and here we have stayed! The weather was meant to be pants, but actually it's been OK most of the time, although a bit chilly first thing in the morning. Lots of snuggling together in bed as the summer comforter is not quite warm enough and the winter duvet is too hot. Goldilocks, where are you?
Saturday was our Leamington discovery day. I had read on Tony and Helen's blog (nb Holderness) and on Ray and Diane's blog (nb Ferndale) about Jephson Park and wanted to visit there.
We set base camp up in Wetherspoons on the Parade. The first visit was to have a coffee (I wasn't allowed to order a plate of sustaining chips) and plan the day. From not knowing what we wanted to do apart from the park visit, we quickly established a comprehensive list of shopping needed (Holland and Barrett, somewhere - turned out to be Trespass - to buy hiking sticks [plus a pair of purple sandals like Julia's - we are now twins like Danny de Vito and Arnie, and a lovely red T-shirt and a game for the grandsons], Poundland, and a camera shop for a monocular that will fit in David's pocket and hang around his neck and not get dropped on the side of the lock and break one lens... Julia and David did the google maps thing and found all of the emporiums (is that emporia?).
The first out and back was after the shopping that involved all of us, then Mick, Julia and I waited finishing a sustaining drink while David went to the camera shop, having first established by phone that a monocular was available.
Then it was off to the park - but first we went to the park on the other side of the road and I bought a pack of lettuce seeds - a great variety that will fill 5 trays - yay!! I am going to poke a few seeds in to the current trays where some of my current crop are going to seed already, dammit. Salad till October is my plan ...
Then Jephson Gardens - well, they are beautiful, and we didn't explore them as much as I'd have liked so we will have to come back at a later date.
|We saw this guy resting his knees. I think he may have been the model for the guy Gary Philips always photographs somewhere on the side of the cut.
|Lots of people out enjoying the sun
|We couldn't find anything that explained this - esp not the boy on the elephant and why he was looking tired/distressed. Must look it up online.
|An unencumbered elephant. Tim and Kirsty, we love you 40 million of these - did you know?
|These roses smelt lovely
|David did dinner - cheese and tomato on homemade bread toast
The whole of Leamington Spa centre needs a greater level of exploration, and now we know where to catch the bus from Radford Semele into town, we will be doing that trip again. Perhaps on our return journey, methinks.
|Yesterday was haircut day for David - this is before. I will have to get one of after - looks good though!
Then tomorrow it's the Hatton Flight - I wonder if we will do it as fast this time as we did last time? We will need Julia's assistance to even approach that warp speed!

iPhone in Canada... and the power to the people..
So they finally announced the iPhone 3G in Canada (along with a whole WHACK of other countries) but our pricing plans for data is waaaaay behind what seems to be everyone else in the world.
Even though the prices for the iPhone plans from Rogers (the exclusive carrier for iPhone) were a step in the right direction (believe it or not, just a while ago that type of useage would've cost in to the thousands) it was still way overpriced compared to other parts of the world.
And in an uproar the Canadian people stood up for what was important to them.. affordable cellular data plans! In the course of a few weeks over 50,000! people signed a petition at ruinediPhone.com and started getting media attention from all over the webverse and beyond. But really, do petitions actually make things happen? Especially too Ego centric money hungry media pioneers like Ted Rogers?
Well, today on the front page of the digital The Star,.... voila! ...amazing...
(chanting) ..power to the people.. ..power to the people.. ..power to the people..
I was going to forgo the idea of getting an iPhone in favor for a UMPC (i got the hots for the OQO) and a free promo phone.. but now perhaps iPhone I am bound...

Well, let's get this information out there!
Working on behalf of industrial clients, Larsen has spent the last few years hacking into plants to show what an attackers might be able to do. He's worked in the lab to cause what he calls "unexpected physics" inside pumps, pipes, boilers, and other equipment. So far he's got a list of just over a dozen attacks, with names like "water hammer" and "bi-phase slug with piston effect," that could cause significant damage and even kill people if a hacker set them in motion.
A water hammer, for example, involves setting up a flow of liquid and then suddenly closing a valve. When all the moving liquid is suddenly forced to stop, the inertia can cause pipes to blow out...

All Rhonda Allison treatment procedures are considered superficial; they do not penetrate beyond the epidermis or papillary dermis. They are not to be confused with medical or physician-strength peels that affect the reticular dermis.
A corrective peel is a technique which involves the application of a variety of enzymatic or acidic solutions to remove the damaged outer layers of dead skin cells from the skin's surface. The peels we use are from Rhonda Allison Clinical Skin care and deliver stunning results.
Peels can improve many skin conditions such as:
- hyper-pigmentation
- rosacea
- acne
- sun damage
- photo aging
By removing the build-up of dead skin cells and stimulating the regenerative process, clients notice marked improvements in the formation of wrinkles and fine lines, texture and tone of the skin, hydration, reduced pore size, clearing of blemishes and more balanced oil production and an overall healthier skin appearance.
Peels are not for everyone.
This is why we require a pre-peel consultation and facial that helps us determine the right peel for you.
We have a wide range of active ingredients in our peels - your skin type determines which is right for you. During your consult facial, we'll determine which corrective peel will be most appropriate for your skin.
Progressive Peel... $145
This refers to a treatment that does not usually cause immediate exfoliation and only removes the outer layer of skin or the stratum corneum. As treatments are repeated, the skin will experience a mild sloughing.
Includes 3 travel size products to aid in healing the skin.
Progressive Peel Package... $210... ($20 savings)
1 Progressive Peel
1 Post Peel Facial
3 travel size products to aid in healing the skin.
Mid- Depth Peel ... $180
These peels affect the intra-epidermal layer, and exfoliation occurs within two to three days after application. Peeling consists of shedding and flaking similar to a sunburn peel.
3 Travel size products to aid in healing the skin.
Mid-Depth Peel Package ... $235 ... ($25 savings)
1 Mid Depth Peel
1 Post peel facial
3 Travel size products to aid in healing the skin.
Deep Peel ... $225
These peels affect the deepest intra-epidermal layers. The skin becomes brown and rough in texture, then undergoes considerable peeling, which occurs three to four days after application. The skin peels in large segments as opposed to flaking. The entire process takes about seven to ten days. Includes 4 travel size products to aid in healing the skin.
Deep Peel Package ... $270 ... ($45 savings)
1 Deep Peel
1 Post Peel Facial
4 travel size products to aid in healing the skin.
Our corrective peels range from Progressive (mild), Mid Depth (medium) and Deep.
The entire process takes about 30 minutes. The peeling solution can feel very warm, tingly, itchy and hot. The intensity varies depending on the strength of the peel.
Post peel the skin may be red and feel tight and irritated like a sun or wind burn. The following days after your peel the skin can feel tight, dry and will flake and peel anywhere from 5 to 14 days depending on the depth of the peel.
You will be given post care home instructions the day of your treatment AND the outcome of the peel depends solely on YOU.
You will need to refrain from:
- Vigorous workouts
- Sun exposure
- Steam and Sauna
- Using scrubs or exfoliants
It's best not to use makeup during the peeling process.
*Many makeup lines contain ingredients that will irritate or damage your new, already-sensitive skin.
Why must clients receive a facial treatment from Skin and Tonic before booking a peel.
- This allows us to examine and evaluate whether the client is a good candidate for a peel.
- Determine if there are any contraindications to the products or treatments. The facial will also prep the client's skin which provides deeper exfoliation and better results!
It is important that clients return 7 to 10 days after their peel treatment. This allows us to examine the skin and recommend future treatments. We will also perform any extractions if needed, slough off excess peeling and infuse nutrients into your fresh new skin!
Essential Post Peel Facial ... $85

What our Egham Holiday Club parents say about us...
My son has been so desperate to reach the age of 9 so that he can join King Ks. He was 9 this summer & absolutely LOVED being a King K. It was great for him to spend time with older kids (his 7-year-old sister is usually a limpet) & the greater variety of activities in the extension zone really helped too.
We're planning on moving house soon but have been so impressed with Manorcroft KOOSA Kids that we plan to use the Teddington KOOSA Kids club once we move.
It was a first time at a holiday club for my daughter. She really enjoyed it, especially the variation in what she was doing every day, and was really keen to come again. This is a huge relief for me as a parent, to know that your child is happy to be left when you need to is fantastic! - thank you very much!
It was my daughter's first time at KOOSA Kids and she couldn't wait to go back each day.
Both my girls loved going to KOOSA Kids and we will definitely be booking up again in the future holidays.

Since I've already written about political unions in the past, the inescapable news that the UK has narrowly voted for "Brexit", the UK's exit from the European Union, would seem to have me stuck retreading ground and discussing the same thing all over again, only with a slightly gloomier outlook.
However, one of the interesting things to emerge post-referendum is the demographics of those who voted; broadly speaking, the young were most likely to vote remain, and the old were most likely to vote to leave. This shows a huge divide between the generations in our society – might your fictional society have a similar divide? Continue reading
