Neuromuscular Therapy
Neuromuscular therapy is a system of massage techniques using deep direct pressure ,that was developed in the 1930's by Dr. Stanley Lief in England. It uses a holistic approach towards healing, emphasizing and stimulating the body's natural ability to heal itself. Neuromuscular therapy also enhances the function of joints and muscles, and accelerates the overall healing process by facilitating the release of endorphins.
Trigger Point Therapy
Trigger Point Therapy is a style of bodywork that focuses on stimulating and releasing "trigger points" in your body. Trigger points are tender areas of tension similar to acupressure points, except they occur in the belly of the muscle rather than along the energy pathways of the body. These "knots" are built up throughout a person's life due to physical, mental, and/or emotional stress. During a session, focused pressure is applied through a variety of techniques order to release your trigger points. This process can be quite painful at times, yet the effects are lasting and profoundly transformative.
Cancer/Oncology Massage
Oncology Massage is a special type of massage developed specifically for cancer patients. Cancer patients have unique needs which must be addressed to make sure that a massage is beneficial to their health. I focus my attention on creating a gentle, nurturing environment for you to relax into.
Deep Tissue Massage
Deep Tissue Massage is a form of bodywork that aims to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body. Deep Tissue Massage is a highly effective method for releasing chronic stress areas due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and past lingering injuries. Due to the nature of the deep tissue work, open communication during the session is crucial to make sure you don't get too uncomfortable. Keep in mind that soreness is pretty common after the treatment, and that plenty of water should be ingested to aid with the flushing and removal of toxins that will have been released from the deep tissue during the session.
Swedish Massage
Swedish Massage is a very relaxing and therapeutic style of bodywork. It combines oils or lotion with an array of strokes such as rolling, kneading, and percussion to help the body improve its circulation. The benefits of this type of bodywork are wide-ranging and include relief from aches and pains, decreased stress levels in the body, enhanced mental clarity, improved appearance, and greater flexibility.

My Norwegian experience (part III)
I was able to enjoy amazing landscapes and get to know interesting people that I encountered during the hike.
I was not used to 24 h of light and I was quite hyperactive so basically, I often hiked from 4-5 to 22-23, with only very short breaks to eat or drink when I remembered, I was very focused on hiking and my eyes and mind were lost in the surrounding nature. I only noticed that I was getting addicted to that when I realized that I only used my fishing road for around an hour to catch some Arctic charr for meals during the whole trip.

I'm in the middle of my 2nd Talks with Teachers challenge on Facebook, where educators from around the country are challenging themselves to grow as teachers. This weeks project was to write a letter to my beginning of the school year self as a means of reflecting on the year. It was a great activity, and I would encourage everyone to take a minute and reflect on the great things you have done this year as well.
Dear Josh,
It's that time again. You are heading back into the trenches. This year will be the most expansive, branching out, collaborative year of your short career. There will be times when you want to give up and times when you are so exhausted you can barely stand, but it will be worth it.
When you begin the year you will jump into it with a fire in your step. You will have a lot of great ideas. Follow through with as many new and inspiring things as possible, but don't stress out when you can't get to everything. Sometimes it's better to do a few things well then to do many things mediocre.
One of the newest additions to your list of responsibilities is Cyclone Academy. You will come into the year psyched for the potential this organization possesses. But temper your expectations. Sometimes your gung-ho nature causes you to jump before you planned out how you will land. You need to take your time and give the group direction and a purpose before you begin. Otherwise you are just muddying the waters and will stumble around grasping for direction.
This will be the year you finally get to stop waiting on tables…just kidding. You will still need to work twice a week waiting on tables. I won't lie to you. It won't be the greatest, but hopefully after you've paid off your student loans it will be worth it.
At times it may feel like you aren't making progress or your lessons aren't working, but at the end of the year you will be shocked by how much growth the kids have made. The last unit of the year you will require more of the kids than any previous year. They will toil and toil and at times you will feel like you've gone too far, like you've pushed them beyond what they are capable of. In the end your amazing students will rise to the occasion.
Most importantly you will try a lot of new things. Here are some of the things you will try with your kids: hour of coding (teaching kids about computer coding), the poetry bracket challenge, a new field trip to the Truman Library, a new anti-bullyng campaign project, plus your kids will video chat with Bill freaking Gates.
You will also take some steps to become an active participant in the larger field of education. You will participate in chats, twitter feeds, e-mail conversations, and even be mentioned on a podcast. At times you will feel like a little kid getting to eat at the adult table for the first time, but as time goes on you will feel more comfortable on this playing field. You will start your blog and slowly begin to develop it. It won't be a smashing success, but it will slowly begin to gain momentum.
The most important thing is to keep innovating, keep trying new things, and don't be afraid to take risks. You will fail sometimes, but that will make the successes that much more amazing.
Here are some highlights from your year:
- Your letter will be read on the Talks with Teachers podcast
- Laurie Halse Anderson will Favorite one of your tweets during a twitter chat
- After your World War 2 unit your kids will have some of the best responses to their online posts, signifying that they not only read the books but understood them at a deep level
- Cyclone Academy will be a moderate success
- Through your work on the textbook committee you will help ensure that the new textbook selected will be the best one (the one with the best online elements)
- Again your kids will chat with BILL GATES!
Your future self
P.S. Make sure to spend plenty of time with your family.

Environment variables are managed on a per-package basis in App-V 5 just as they have with previous versions. During sequencing, the Environment Variable Virtualization Subsystem (say that 10 ten times fast) will capture snapshots of the user and system variable list before and after the monitoring process. Then lists are compared and any differences are added to the package manifest. This means the package will default to the variable data entered in during sequencing. The variables are then stored in the package manifest using the following format:
<appv:Variable Name="TMP" Value="[{LocalAppData}]\Temp" />
Where the "Name" is the variable and "Value" is the new, tokenized (if necessary) value of the environment variable. On the client, the named variable will be set to the new value within the virtual environment and properly translated.
The one time there is an exception to this process is when the PATH value is being handled. Applications never "set" the PATH variable – they only append, or add to it therefore if changes to the PATH value are detected during sequencing, the changes will be captured and will appear slightly different in the manifest, with a self-referential value. The PATH variable that is captured in manifest will look similar to:
<appv:Variable Name="PATH" Value="<dirpath1;%PATH%;dirpath2" />
Where dirpath1 would be a prefixed Path segment to the current PATH and dirpath2 is a suffixed path segment to the current PATH.
The sequencer can also detect the deletion of existing variables and will apply those in the manifest using the following format:
<appv:Variable Name="TEMP" />
In this case, the Environment Variable TEMP will be deleted within the virtual environment of the application.
These captured values can be modified and overridden using dynamic configuration. An administrator can modify DeploymentConfig and/or UserConfig to edit Environment Variables. The <Include> element beneath the <EnvironmentVariables> section is where new or modified variables should be placed. The <Delete> element is where values need to be removed. In the example below, the PATH variable is modified, two additional variables are added and one will be deleted (if exists.)
The Virtual Environment Variable Subsystem reads the package manifest and the option deployment and user dynamic configuration files, and produces two lists – variables to add and variables to remove. This is all done when the application launches. As the catalog documents are processed, newly processed values overwrite previously processed values, so last writer wins. It is important to make sure all needed variables from the manifest are transferred over to the dynamic configuration files when leveraging them to change variables post-sequencing.
As with sequencing, there is an exception and it again involves the PATH variable. The PATH variable is injected after a process has completely loaded. This is why it is not a good idea to try to use the PATH value to help a virtual application to find a static binary dependency (even inside the immutable package cache.)
Caveat with Connection Groups
An area that confuses sequencers is how environment variables are handled with Connection Groups. Environment variable lists overwrite each when combining packages into Connection Groups. Like with registry convergence, variable convergence is a last writer win scenario in the case of overlapping variable names. The package with the highest order within the connection group descriptor document wins variable name conflicts.
Exception with Multi-String Values
Be advised though that some variables are treated specially, as they have been identified as having multi-string values. If a multi-string variable is present in multiple packages, the resulting value is the combination of values from all packages, instead of the last writer winning. The list of variable names which are treated as multi-strings is stored in the registry at HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\AppV\Subsystem\EnvVarMultiStrings
Exception with Cross-Bitness
App-V deploys special additional tokens used to denote information that has to be adjusted depending on the bitness of the sequencing machine and the correlation of the client machine. These tokens apply to environment variables impacted by Wow64 redirection. They enable the proper translation when an application that was sequenced on a 32-bit machine gets deployed on a 64-bit client machine.
The two are:
AppVEnvironmentVariableCommonProgramFiles: Can be %commonprogramfiles% or %CommonProgramFiles(x86)%
AppVEnvironmentVariableProgramFiles: Can be %ProgramFiles% or %ProgramFiles(x86)%
The rules for this are as follows:
If the application is a 32-bit application, sequenced on a 32-bit operating system, deployed on a 32-bit operating system, then these tokens are expanded back to the original values.
If the application is a 32-bit application, sequenced on 32-bit operating system, deployed on 64-bit operating system, then these tokens are expanded back to X86 versions of the values.
If the application is a 64-bit application, sequenced on 64-bit operating system, deployed on 64-bit operating system, then these tokens are expanded back to the original values.
Verification of Virtual Environment Variables
When testing environment variables within a virtual application package, the environment variables will not be visible outside of the virtual environment. That is why you will see no changes when you list the variables using the internal "set" command:
However, when you open the command prompt inside of the virtual environment, you will see the variables from above:

Sunday Sermon :: November 16, 2014
Matthew 25:14-30
"For it is as if a man, going on a journey, summoned his slaves and entrusted his property to them; to one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one, to each according to his ability. Then he went away. The one who had received the five talents went off at once and traded with them, and made five more talents. In the same way, the one who had the two talents made two more talents. But the one who had received the one talent went off and dug a hole in the ground and hid his master's money. After a long time the master of those slaves came and settled accounts with them. Then the one who had received the five talents came forward, bringing five more talents, saying, 'Master, you handed over to me five talents; see, I have made five more talents.' His master said to him, 'Well done, good and trustworthy slave; you have been trustworthy in a few things, I will put you in charge of many things; enter into the joy of your master.' And the one with the two talents also came forward, saying, 'Master, you handed over to me two talents; see, I have made two more talents.' His master said to him, 'Well done, good and trustworthy slave; you have been trustworthy in a few things, I will put you in charge of many things; enter into the joy of your master. 'Then the one who had received the one talent also came forward, saying, 'Master, I knew that you were a harsh man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you did not scatter seed; so I was afraid, and I went and hid your talent in the ground. Here you have what is yours.' But his master replied, 'You wicked and lazy slave! You knew, did you, that I reap where I did not sow, and gather where I did not scatter? Then you ought to have invested my money with the bankers, and on my return I would have received what was my own with interest. So take the talent from him, and give it to the one with the ten talents. For to all those who have, more will be given, and they will have an abundance; but from those who have nothing, even what they have will be taken away. As for this worthless slave, throw him into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'
Grace to you and peace, people of God, in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.
Growing up, my dad was a loan officer at one of the local banks, working exclusively with agriculture loans. I grew up with a fairly good knowledge of how interest worked, how savings accounts should be used, and what an investment was. He tried so hard to make sure my brother and I knew how money really worked. I learned that saving was better than spending. I learned that money didn't magically appear, but it was worked for. And I also learned that it's very easy to misuse our resources. But, despite this knowledge, this story we just read, the parable of the talents, has always been something of a mystery to me.
As a young boy, I remember thinking, "What would have happened if one of the slaves lost the money in a bad investment or just spent it?" I mean, the master was pretty harsh with the guy who buried his money and didn't do anything with it, but imagine if he returned and one of the slaves said, "Sorry, lord, but I don't have the money you gave me, but take a look at these awesome new sandals! 50% off! Can you believe it?" I imagined that slave would be paying for that decision for quite some time! Imagine my surprise when, as I looked up exactly how much a talent is worth. Let's number crunch for a bit. A talent is 94 pounds of gold. As of 9:15 on Thursday morning, a traditional ounce of gold is worth $1162.40. 16 ounces in a pound, gives us around $18,600, take that times the weight of a talent gives us $1,748,400. $1,748,400! And one slave had five of those! $8,742,000! That's a lot of money! Can you imagine having that much wealth? It would be unbelievable. I think I would literally start shaking if I had that much money, I would have no idea what to do with it.
It's very easy to read this and just think that Jesus simply wanted us to spend money the right ways. Now, I want you to know that isn't necessarily wrong, but I tend to read it a little differently now than I did as a child. I have a different understanding of who Jesus is, what Jesus has done, and how Jesus used parables. I understand, now, that Jesus isn't just talking about spending habits. He isn't giving us an example of a good retirement plan, wise investment strategy, or somehow trying to tell us that we need to give more money to church. Instead of spending habits, I'm convinced that Jesus is talking about living habits. Jesus isn't interested simply in return on investment. It seems that the master in the parable Jesus tells is simply interested in that we are invested! Invested in the kingdom of heaven that he has been speaking about so much. Invested in what God is doing in the world. Invested in the welfare of our neighbors.
Last week, Pastor Jeni talked about preparation. Being prepared involves thinking ahead to the time when Jesus will come back and doing God's work on earth, participating in what God is doing on earth, until we can't anymore. I know that, often, we don't think ahead that way. Honestly, most of the time, my focus, especially this time of year, is on the upcoming holidays. People who are truly thankful for what they have, like skills, abilities, money, time, energy, and, most importantly, freedom in Christ, use them to prepare for the master's return by taking part in God's work in the world. People who are thankful for what they have don't hoard, but give. People who are thankful are happy that they have anything to give at all!
Now, let's flash back to this parable and take a look at these slaves. Of the 3, two of them had one thing in common. They saw the money as an opportunity to do something. They saw this incredible wealth as a way to achieve incredible things. And my guess is that these servants would have thought that about anything they had been given. They saw the gift as an opportunity to do something. When we think of this story and expand it from simply financial investment advice and look to it as a lifestyle of generosity and opportunity to use whatever is given to us, this has profound implications. We aren't simply talking about giving money, but giving life. We have all been given talents, and I hope you see, now, that I'm not talking money anymore (although if you do have a talent of gold, I'd like to talk to you later this week!). I'm talking about using what we have to offer praise and glory to God. I'm talking about using what we've been given, time, money, skills, energy, and passion, to offer a return of investment.
Now, let me say, right now, that giving money does not make you a Christian. Giving time or energy does not earn salvation. I'm begging with you, I'm pleading with you. Do not take this sermon and walk away saying, "Bryan sure talked about money a lot today!" I'm not talking about money. I'm talking about a response. I'm talking about a response to God for the unending gift of grace that we find in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. I'm talking about using the incredible, untapped personal skills, resources, and passions that make us all unique. Using them, not hoard them. In this scenario, the only way to waste them is to not use them. Don't bury them in the dirt and give them back to God, smelly and dirty.
I'm convinced that the slave who was punished was not punished because he simply gave the money back. I'm convinced that the slave was punished because he gave nothing of himself back. He could have lost money and the master would have said, "Well done, good and trustworthy, slave." I've talked about this before that the economics of the kingdom of God is not like ours. It's not a bottom line, finishing in the black kind of thought process. God is more interested that we use whatever we have been uniquely given to allow God to make a difference. God has done incredible work in us, and God continues to do incredible work in us and the world around us. Now, we have the opportunity to be sent out to the world. We have the chance be the hands and feet and voice of God. We have the ability to invest our time and talents and money into a cause far greater than our own. Because we have been saved by grace through faith, we have the ability to gratefully and thankfully respond.
And that's what we want you to have the chance to do today. You may have noticed some sheets in the pews in front of you. Those are our new time and talent sheets and I want to give you a chance to look at them, consider them, and fill one out if you feel called to do so. I'll sing a song and give you some time to prayerfully consider what talents God is entrusting to you. During the offering, we'll have somebody following the ushers taking an offering just of these sheets. Pass them to the middle and give them as you like. You can also take this home, fill them out, and return them this week sometime. Or, maybe you just need some time to consider what you have to offer, because I can 100% guarantee that we all have something to offer, and see how God is calling you to use it.

Prevalence rates of autism are on the rise in Goa and across the world. It is widey known and esearch as proven that early diagnosis followed by intensive intervention can bring about far-reaching changes in the development and communication of children with autism. However, there are just not enough trained professionals to meet the demands of therapy. To overcome this difficulty, Sethu started conducting 'Asha', a program to train parents and their young children with autism. It is a 25-session program that runs on 2 mornings every week, for 12 weeks.
If you visit Sethu on a Tuesday or Thursday morning, you will be greeted with the melodious voices of therapists and mothers singing the Good Morning song at the start of the Asha session. The next two hours fly past, as mothers are coached on how to promote non-verbal communication like eye contact and pointing, improving sitting behavior, getting children's attention using things that they enjoy and playing together to create a social connection. Through the sharing of ideas and difficulties, the mothers form valuable emotional bonds of support.
The children's progress is monitored through the use of the Autism Treatment Evaluation Checklist. Sethu has successfully executed 6 Asha programs so far and all the children have showed improvements based on data and parent feed-back gathered on conclusion of the course.

Ascot Racecourse: A royal history
As this year's Royal Ascot gets underway in Berkshire, BBC News looks back at the racecourse's history as it marks its 300-year anniversary.
Today, Ascot is world famous for its racecourse, with races throughout the year.
However, it is only called Royal Ascot in June when the Queen attends.
But as racing historian Sean Magee explained, it was royal from the very start.
The 300-year story of racing at Ascot begins in 1711, when Queen Anne put an idea into motion to pursue her love of horse racing.
Also a lover of stag hunting, Mr Magee said that it was on one of her "regular rampages" through nearby Windsor forest when Anne had her "brainwave".
Social event
Her racecourse would appear near Ascot village, which was close to where her hunting hounds were kennelled at Swinley Bottom.
On 12 July 1711, the London Gazette printed that Her Majesty's plates of 50 and 100 guineas would be competed for at the new course the following month, even though at that time the course still needed to be laid out.
"Charles, Duke of Somerset and Master of the Horse, swung into action," said Mr Magee, author of Ascot: The History.
"Royal account books record the payment to 'sundry workmen employed in making and perfecting the round heat (course) on Ascot Common in the months of July and August 1711'".
Payments were also made to William Erlybrown "for setting up posts and other carpenter's work on the said common" and to Benjamin Culcott for painting the posts.
Mr Magee explained that on the eve of the first meeting, held on Saturday 11 August 1711, author Jonathan Swift wrote that "much company is come to town this evening to see tomorrow's race".
"The first Ascot meeting must have been considered a success as a second followed in September 1711," said Mr Magee.
"Ascot races were quickly established as one of the main social events of the court calendar."
'Gambling and womanising'
However, the death of Queen Anne on 1 August 1714 caused the cancellation of the races later that month, and there is no further record of Ascot races until 1720.
Neither successors George I and George II showed any interest in Ascot Racecourse, but its fortunes were revived by George II's third son and keen sportsman William Augustus, Duke of Cumberland.
Known as The Butcher Of Culloden for his brutal defeat of Bonnie Prince Charlie in Scotland, Cumberland was responsible for the racecourse's first four-day Tuesday-to-Friday fixture in 1749.
Years later in 1785, the Straight Mile was built at Ascot when a marked improvement in thoroughbred breeds saw less emphasis on stamina and more on speed.
The next important royal in the history of Ascot was "the notorious Prinny," said Mr Magee.
He was George III's oldest son, who became Prince Regent in 1811.
"The future George IV is best remembered for his profligacy and hedonism, living his life in a whirl of banqueting, gambling and womanising - three activities which came together in his passion for racing," said Mr Magee.
He added: "Prinny's patronage made Ascot races one of the most fashionable social occasions of the year, but coverage of his attendance was by no means deferential.
"A famous satirical print of the time depicted 'His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, with a Lady of Quality, going to Ascot Races' - and the Lady of Quality is anything but."
When Prinny was crowned George IV in January 1820, he ordered architect John Nash to design a new stand, which included a lawn for the exclusive use of guests of the royal family - the beginning of the Royal Enclosure.
But the greatest legacy George IV left to Ascot is the Royal Procession.
"There had been grand entrances before but it was in 1825 that the royal party first made a formal procession up the Straight Mile," said Mr Magee.
"Since then the Royal Procession has provided the most graphic illustration of the connection between royalty and Ascot racecourse."

How to Manage Credit Card DebtJune 7, 2011 // 5 Comments
"How to eliminate your credit card debt", "How to pay off credit card faster" etc, are the topics of discussion in most of the talk show and forums in the recent days. According to the statistics from Moneyzine.com, the average credit card debt per household is $5100 and expected to rise to $6500 by the end of 2011. So, it is vital to talk about how to manage credit card debt and keep finance under control.
A huge portion of the population carries a balance on credit cards from month to month. According to a survey conducted by Federal Reserve, total credit card debt on store or gas credit cards is about $105 billion. Although debt can be overwhelming, it is possible to lower your balances and become debt free.
Here are few tips on how to manage credit card debt and pay off your debt;
1) Budgeting: Know what comes in and what goes out. Understanding personal financial situation is a group effort. Get the family together and spend an evening or so making a budget. Budgeting can be done on a monthly or a yearly basis. Key in all your planned expenditure on a spreadsheet and the actual income that everyone brings in. Talley the balance to make sure the total expenditure doesn't exceed the total household income. If the expenses are more, then you have to come up with a plan, as a family, to cut down the unwanted expenditures. Mymoney.gov offers different budgeting tools to help consumers track their financial well being.
U.S. Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics provides Consumer Expenditure Survey to get an overview of the spending habit of other families within the same income brackets.
2) Make Cash Purchase: Stop using credit cards for day to day purchases. The simplest advantage to paying with cash is the limitation it puts on what you buy. Without a buy-now-pay-later mentality associated with credit cards, you will purchase only items that are affordable and covered by the cash you have on hand.
3) Pay on time: Paying your bills on time is one of the crucial things you can do to avoid damaging your credit. Even if it is just the minimum payment, try to pay it off before the due date. This will be possible only if you have few credit cards. A large number of credit cards can cause a difficult situation to manage as your credit debt grows. The more cards you have, the more likely it is that you will simply miss seeing a bill and making a payment. Also, it is always better to pay the full balance rather than aiming for the minimum payment
4) Pay off high interest credit cards: Try to pay off fully the balance on high interest credit cards. Interest on the unpaid balance keeps growing leading to an impossible situation to pay it off. Try to borrow enough money on low interest credit cards to pay off the debt on all other high interest credit cards.
February 23, 2019
I too agree that these are all pretty good suggestions, especially paying on time. Timely payments will save you from unnecessary charges which can affect you balance vigorously if you have a huge balance. On time paymens can also boost your credit scores quickly.

From my experience I can say, there are financial calculators which show you in detail how to payoff any loan early. The calculator which I use is " Smart Loan Calculator Pro " which is available in app store for 2 bucks. It is awsome. It is not for one time. It is life time useful smart calculator. Give it a try. I guarantee, you would thank me after you download and check it. After checking this, I realized how easy to payoff martgage early.

Radio ActiveM
In times of crisis and natural disasters, Amateur (HAM) radios are often used as a trusted and proven means of emergency communication.
Recent examples include the September 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center in Manhattan, the 2003 North American blackout, and Hurricane Katrina in September, 2005, where amateur radio was used to coordinate disaster relief activities when other systems failed.
TACDA has been a supporter of Amateur Radio communication, and Amateur Radio Clubs, for decades. Clubs can provide information about licensing in their respective area, local operating practices and technical advice.
In the US, Amateur radio operators are required to pass an examination to demonstrate technical knowledge, operating competence and awareness of legal and regulatory requirements in order to avoid interference with other Amateur radio operators and other radio services.
TACDA's Resources & Links area is continually adding more local Amateur Radio Clubs. To add or modify a link, please Contact TACDA .

Epicor updates DocStar ECM Solution
Epicor Software as announced the newest release of the DocStar Enterprise Content Management solution.
The new release includes document capture and DocStar ECM Forms enhancements, expanded mobility, and new DocStar ECM PackageWorks case management functionality. In addition, the solution supports greater productivity and responsiveness by providing anytime access to capture, process, search, retrieve, share, and collaborate around documents critical to business transactions.
"Organizations embrace digital processes to scale and modernize operations and encourage greater collaboration," said Tom Franceski , vice president and general manager of DocStar, a division of Epicor Software Corporation.
"The new DocStar ECM platform enhancements connect enterprise systems, streamline workflows, and enable anytime access with ease to flow transactions more efficiently. As a result, organizations can achieve their growth and digital transformation goals, improving operational speed and efficiency, visibility and auditability, compliance and governance."
Available for iOS and Android devices, the DocStar ECM mobile app delivers secure and quick access to the DocStar ECM repository, enabling users to gain timely workflow approval from their mobile devices anywhere, anytime. Users can email files in the same manner as the DocStar ECM desktop version, where document access is granted in a seamless, secure fashion via a unique URL or attachment and is password-protected.
DocStar ECM PackageWorks
DocStar ECM PackageWorks supports digital document package compilation with intelligent workflows for comprehensive case management. This provides a secure platform to gather, group, review, approve, and distribute documents quickly and easily in a consistent and accurate process. DocStar ECM PackageWorks streamlines collecting and managing key documents as part of the case management process.
Document Capture Enhancements
Key enhancements include improved optical character recognition (OCR) engine speed and accuracy, barcode and patch code recognition, and document splitting. Users can onboard documents more quickly and efficiently with preset, document-specific settings for optimal quality. Additionally, users can extract more accurate document text for easier document indexing and searches. Improved document splitting and automated workflow assignment allow for more accurate and faster document processing with fewer exceptions.
Forms Enhancements
Improvements to DocStar ECM Forms include designer guidance, drag-n-drop, copy and paste, and forms-element placement sizing. Alignment tools enable faster and easier form creation and existing-forms modification.


text: HBO's Vice Principals was one of last season's most delightful hits. The Walton Goggins, Danny McBride led series was planned with only two seasons in mind. Now, the second season is said to premiere on September 17. It looks like the war for VP is still ongoing as the two stars continue to battle it out for the coveted new role.

Mud season comes late in the Adirondacks, and lingers past the advent of spring blossoms in New York's milder zones. From April to about mid-June, hikers are warned to avoid the wet and muddy high elevation trails. But with the temporary loss of trail access comes another seasonal boon–spectacular New York waterfalls. On a mild April day, I had one of New York's most majestic wateralls–High Falls Gorge–nearly all to myself.
I stopped by as I was leaving from a short getaway to Lake Placid. Located just eight miles out of town, New York, High Falls Gorge is one of the most accessible of Adirondack waterfalls. Getting to the falls viewing platforms is pretty easy too. Steel bridges, gravel paths, and glass-bottom platforms protect the environment while bringing visitors up close to the powerful waterfalls rushing down steep granite cliffs. The entire walking loop is 1/2 mile long, with a shorter 1/4 easier loop for those not able to climb steep stairs.
My visit was less than an hour long, but High Falls Gorge offers a number of seasonal activities that could extend the visit. A one mile nature trail is open (weather permitting) to hikers in summer and fall, or to snowshoers in winter. Snowshoes are available to rent in the gift shop. In summer, "miners" can sluice for gems at the Ausable River Mining Co. Year-round, kids are encouraged to earn a Junior Explorer prize by reading about the rocks, trees, and the Ausable River on the informational signs that dot the path.
But the best time to make this trip is now, when melting snow powers rushing waters. Keep in mind that although High Falls Gorge is open year-round, April hours vary. Call ahead or check the website for the schedule.

|Chioma and her SUV
|Appreciative hug
This actually must be the real deal! Mimicking the great music group of yore known as "Whispers" , this is surely or most assuredly ".....the love thang".
Firstly, the undisputed and one and only O. B. O declares his love very openly and very publicly for his boo, he then serenades his heartbeat "Chioma Avril Rowland" with a new song titled "Assurance", maybe as a mark of assurance that no matter what, he would stay good with her. Maybe to take the assurance tbing many notch up further and to seal it, he went further to solidify the assurance with an humungous birthday gift of a brand spanking new "Porsche SUV" valued at about 45 million which totally left his 23 year old Beau, born April 30, 1995 totally gobsmacked!
Even Davido himself was super elated about the whole thing. that he had to declare it, Hear him-
'My baby got a Porsche menh, my baby got a fcuking Porsche menh' lol.
"I give my baby ASSURANCE!!! I love you baby!! WE IN THIS 4 LIFE!! ❤❤❤❤😍😍😍 @thechefchi !! HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHIOM CHIOM !! FROM ME TO YOU!! I BOUGHT MY BABY A PORSCHE!! 🔥🔥" and the gift has elicited so much reactions, both positive and negative too. Anyways, any which way Chioma is driving her Porsche here and there already.

A writer's working library?
My purpose here is to identify the kinds of books a frequent or full-time writer might accumulate. I offer examples from my bookshelves; I have not performed a systematic survey of the books available today in each category.
First, a general-purpose, unabridged dictionary is indispensable for me. Online dictionaries can be helpful for quick reference to common, customary usages of terms. I prefer a book because I can mark it up. Using a fine-line black pen, I encircle each word I study. I underline to highlight one meaning or word-origin among many. I write comments in the margins. Thus, as the decades pass, I accumulate knowledge in the form of notes in the dictionary itself. If I return to a word years later I can read my earlier notes and use them as an advanced starting point.
The dictionary I use is the Random House Dictionary of the English Language, unabridged, 2nd edition. It offers primary, secondary, and less common usages of English words; and it presents a brief history of each word, including its Latin, Greek or other origin. This large-format book (about four inches thick, and nine by twelve on the face) also includes: maps; tables of weights and measures; translation mini-dictionaries for several European languages; a list of commonly confused words (e.g., "ambiguous" and "ambivalent"); and many other features. I keep it open on a stand next to my desk.[1]
The style manual I generally follow is The Chicago Manual of Style, 14th edition. It has 900 pages packed with detailed information about the process of developing a manuscript; writing style (for example, when to write "18" or "eighteen"); and production of a book (design, printing, binding). An example section is 6.19, "Possessives, General Rules." In some sections, the manual's authors discuss alternative systems of style but emphasize the system that The University of Chicago Press prefers. I support many of their recommendations, but not all of them. Their discussions allow me to make an informed decision.
Other aids for developing the sort of style I want (objective, clear, concise, and readable) are works -- from most concise to most explanatory -- such as William Strunk, Jr. and E. B. White, The Elements of Style; Rudolph Flesch, The ABC of Style: A Guide to Plain English; and Theodore M. Bernstein, The Careful Writer: A Modern Guide to English Usage. These stylists do not always agree with each other. Good. Each presents reasons for his view, allowing the reader to decide for himself in each application. Bernstein in particular is helpful in distinguishing meanings, for example, distinguishing "annihilate" (destroy completely) and "decimate" (destroy one-tenth).
The premier guide to the writing process is Ayn Rand, The Art of Nonfiction: A Guide for Writers and Readers. It deserves slow, careful study. It covers big issues, for example, when to use the conscious mind and when the subconscious (for example, Chs. 5 and 6), as well as narrower issues, such as rhythm in writing (p. 134), the writing of book reviews (p. 145), and the error of editing unwritten sentences (p. 73).
I also use a variety of specialized resources to help me achieve my central purpose in life, which is telling success stories from history. For the beginner, Richard Marius, A Short Guide to Writing About History, 2nd ed., covers every phase of researching and writing history.
I love histories that cover vast subjects. I focus on the history of philosophy and its primitive predecessor, religion. I have used W. L. Reese, Dictionary of Philosophy and Religion: Eastern and Western Thought, hundreds of times. For instance, it has a full page on "Faith" offering 16 entries chronologically arranged, from the 1st Century Christian apostle Paul to the 20th Century philosopher-theologian Frederick R. Tennant.
Last is a category for amusement as well as education: myth-busters. Tom Burnam, The Dictionary of Misinformation, sets the record straight on such items as the often-quoted sentence, "Brevity is the soul of wit," from Shakespeare's Hamlet. Burnam explains that "wit" is short for "witan," which meant "knowledge" to Shakespeare.
What additional tools for writers would you suggest?

Wow, I'd love to get a look at that dictionary some day! :)
How about a thesaurus? Sometimes I find I'm looking for the right word and just need a different nuance.

My unabridged dictionary includes, near the end of each entry, a list of synonyms. For "debate," synonyms listed include "disputation" and "contention," among others. I would need to look up each if I were trying to determine shades of meaning.
The advantage of a thesaurus would be that, if it is a large one, it would in one place give you a comparison of similar but distinguishable meanings.
I threw my thesaurus away.

- Bill Brown said...
As a more specialized version of a thesaurus, I'd recommend a synonym dictionary. It has entries exploring the differences between synonyms in a way that lends itself to greater precision.
For example, debate is a conventional, thesaurus-like entry. Further down the page, "debt" is where these books really shine.

Personally, as so much of my writing covers current affairs - which can often mean analysing the miserable, the misguided, the evil and the senseless - I cannot contemplate writing without inspiration on hand. Hugo's Les Miserables, and the latter half of Rand's Anthem are my sources. Both are, to me, the pinnacle of the uplifting - though I know much of them by memory, seeing the words printed on the page is indispensable.
Even when analysing the worst things in the world, literature of the romantic genre without fail inspires me to keep the text useful: as a sort of proud weapon against the very subject it covers, rather than a feeble "woe is me."

The Art of Fiction is within easy reach for me, since I'm working on a novel.
I find "Elements of Style" to be very cumbersome. I never know what section to look in. Even on-line (http://www.bartleby.com/141/), I have trouble with it. Is it easy to find the answer to your questions in the "Chicago?"
- Feb 18, 2010, 10:26:00 AM
- Burgess Laughlin said...
1. Indeed, The Art of Fiction is also well worth close study by nonfiction writers as well. E.g., the sections on slang (p. 158) and obscenities (p. 160) have been useful to me.
2. For most frequent or full-time writers, I would recommend using The Elements of Style or similar books in two ways:
a. Read through the book slowly, perhaps a page or two per day, underlining or otherwise noting the problems that you usually encounter. E.g., some writers have trouble with possessives.
b. After working on a writing project, and developing a moderately polished draft, reread TES (or at least skim one's earlier notes written in the book). Next edit your current draft again with those particular pointers in mind.
An example is section 17 of my 3rd edition copy of TES: "Omit Needless Words." The authors suggest, for instance, replacing verbose phrases such as there is no doubt but that with doubtless.
Haviing reprogrammed my subconscious with suggestions like that, my next round of editing a current manuscript will be more productive. (On very large projects, I often go through six or eight edit cycles, each time looking for a different sort of problem or set of problems.)
After practice, the writer gradually automatizes the key points.
3. The Chicago Manual of Style is at first difficult to use. However once I figured out the numbering system and invested time into examining the Table of Contents and the Index as tools, then finding items became much easier.
Suggestion: Tape a little tab, with a key word, on pages you are likely to visit again. For me, an example is the section on possessives. Until I finally understood what to do, as a rule, I had to repeatedly refer to the section on possessives as a rote guide.
Writing can at times be agonizing, as Ayn Rand notes in The Art of Nonfiction, but in the long-term it can be very fulfilling.
- Feb 18, 2010, 12:18:00 PM
- Amy said...
That seems like excellent advice. I will do just that with "Elements."
- Feb 18, 2010, 12:31:00 PM
- Burgess Laughlin said...
I applaud anyone who makes a serious, sustained effort to become a fiction writer. It is, I think, the most difficult career:

Newcomer Joe Alwyn has been tapped to star in the title role of Ang Lee's upcoming Iraq war drama "Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk" for TriStar Pictures, Studio 8 and Bona Film Group.
Based on the Ben Fountain novel, Billy Lynn is a nineteen-year-old private in the U.S. military who survives a harrowing Iraq battle that is captured by news cameras. He and his team are brought home by the U.S. administration for a promotional tour, culminating at the halftime show of a Thanksgiving Day football game.
Almost the entire movie takes place during the day of the game, with flashes back to the underlying events, Billy's heroism, and his dealing with the imminent return to the war.
No official offer has apparently been made, but Alwyn is said to be the director's choice after rising to the top of the pile last week. He apparently scored final approval from both the studio and director this past weekend, and this marks his first major role in a feature film.
"Tron Legacy" actor Garrett Hedlund is also said to be under serious consideration for the other male lead role in the movie.

Having finally acquired an iphone and being able to enter the world of apps and all that is very exciting indeed. One of the first app I installed was the book-shelf thingy and discovered that I can download loads of classic books for free etc. What a fascinating modern age we live in.
But really, REALLY, it doesn't compared at all with the thrill of being around in Charing Cross or in the second hand books stalls under Waterloo bridge and find unexpected treasures. This jewell Mrs Hurst Dancing was waiting for me in one of those stalls yesterday. The sketchbooks of a lady in regency times. This girl was clearly gifted at drawing. And so witty. It makes me want to forget all my chores today and go out sketching. Again.

So for this exercise we are using LTS version of Symfony2, namely 2.3.* (it was 2.3.11 when this was written). Point is just, we need some version of 2.3 🙂
In order to create a bundle with Sumfony2, we first need to create a Symfony project using composer. Find composer installation instructions here: https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md
After you have composer installed, the following command in the terminal:
php composer.phar create-project symfony/framework-standard-edition path/ 2.3.1
If composer was installed globally, use this command:
composer create-project symfony/framework-standard-edition path/ 2.3.11
After the creation of the Symfony project is done (which basically installs Symfony) you can create a bundle by using the terminal in the above created project root and run this command and follow the interactive prompts:
php app/console generate:bundle
For more info on this, see http://symfony.com/doc/2.3/bundles/SensioGeneratorBundle/commands/generate_bundle.html

TrueChase PRA notes that life, without entertainment, would simply mean not living, but merely surviving. Entertainment as such is vital towards human growth and expansion, it is by viewing that which is beyond the scope of our own imagination that we are spurred towards greater vision and accomplishment.
Entertainment is by definition "an activity that is diverting and that holds ones attention". Simply put, it's that moment where the air is thick with tangible anticipation…
It's that moment where practice and preparation meet like track athletes awaiting the bang of the starters pistol. Each speeding together towards the finish line. It's the moment where these two combine with desire and determination culminating in an awe inspiring moment, a moment where vision is brought into reality.
This is what TrueChase desires to achieve. We aspire to be the coach behind your preparation. We desire to create moments which inspire and build up, to promote and uplift the truly talented, the truly skilled champions. We desire to help you to push the limit, to push the boundaries and boarders of human excellence, and to be a part of something great together.
Join us as we build platforms and look to connect like-minded goal-driven professionals, and together inspire growth of a higher standard of entertainers worldwide. Share and connect. Join us in shaping the world – be a part of history.
Love. Dream. Succeed. Give

"Swagger" isn't a word readily associated with British movies. We've come a long way from The Italian Job… through the 80s; the decade of Mike Leigh and Ken Loach; that sober, serious, socially-conscious hell that movie-goers watched from behind their Guardian newspapers. But in 1998 "swagger" re-entered the lexicon, and despite a few minor wobbles, "swagger" has remained – in the form of Guy Ritchie's movie resume – ever since. His latest, RocknRolla, is pure swagger; a giddy, Technicolor two-fingers to his detractors, suffused with such love of self and London that it's like a French-kiss from Kate Moss.
As usual, there's a very complicated plot, and, as usual, it involves a band of geezers; invincible Russian he-men; sexy dames; a snarling crime boss and lots of camera tricks. Suffice to say: Tom Wilkinson plays a thug who wants to be Bob Hoskins in The Long Good Friday. His lieutenant, Mark Strong, is a dead-ringer for Andy Garcia in The Godfather Part III, and both men want back a stolen painting, which has been stolen by Wilkinson's son (Toby Kebbell), who acts like Pete Doherty. Into the mix Ritchie adds a trio of loveable rogues known as The Wild Bunch (Gerard Butler, Idris Elba and Tom Hardy) and a Russian mob boss (Karel Roden). What follows is a bit like Alfie if Alfie had been addicted to crack.
Ritchie is strongest when he's having fun, and it seems, after two movies spent trying to shoehorn Madonna's world into Ritchie-land, he's ready to have fun again with RocknRolla. Where Revolver was like watching a teenager explain something deep to you ("duality… like, woah!"), RocknRolla plays like Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels had never ended. The movie is shameless in riffing on Ritchie's past conceits; it doesn't care that you've seen this all before… because you haven't seen this with Gerard Butler and the guy who played Stringer Bell in The Wire! And this time one of the geezers is gay! And Tom Wilkinson wears a bald-cap! Somehow – although this should make you want to hit Ritchie – you want Lock, Stock back. Maybe Revolver had to be as bad as it was just to show you how good those Mockney gangster movies were, in comparison.
There are a clutch of great scenes, but I'd call the best a two-way split between sex and violence. The reduction of Gerard Butler and Thandie Newton's coupling to a razor-edit series of oohs and ahs is priceless, but it's easily matched by a robbery-gone-wrong in which the Russian guards of the loot simply Will Not Die. Gerard Butler shines in both these scenes as a hard man with a wicked sense of humour, and he makes you realise how much of his talents were squandered in 300, where he played a male stripper with a sword.
Thandie Newton, who is, quite clearly, living proof there is a God – is pretty good here as a bad girl who struts and grins and comes on all Eartha Kitt-y. She's been the new Eartha Kitt ever since she arrived in Hollywood, except that no-one's stepped forward to be her Orson Welles (I'm thinking of that great Orson anecdote where he bit Kitt on the lip – while kissing her – because he "got excited"). Newton doesn't have a great deal to do in RocknRolla, other than dance with Butler and get him in the sack, but her looks are active.
RocknRolla finds Guy Ritchie prepping for divorce (with any luck). He's paid his dues on the Madonna production line, made one movie for her to act in and another to espouse her religious views. Now, you get the feeling, he's fished his balls out of the jar Mrs. Ritchie put them in, put the kibosh on kabbalah and written his new script down at the local pub. The swagger that Britain (and Brad Pitt) loved in Lock, Stock is back, and it's beautiful. RocknRolla is Britain as if Tony Scott ran the country and London was the setting for True Romance. It's a robber's movie, and it thrills you like cash.

Noun. A strange looking animal with a long nose, huge paws, deadly claws, often green cat-like eyes, and a serious weight problem. The bastard child of a male bear and a female cougar. Similiar to the coubear, except that they prefer domestic areas more. beargars have a particular affection for fish and berries, but are also known to feast on smaller animals, particularly domestic cats and dogs. These are very hardy animals, and although are not generally vicious towards humans, have been known to attack when threatened with socks.
