Saw this and thought it may be true....
Spare a thought for poor ole Michael O'Leary, Chief Executive of Ryanair.
After arriving in a hotel in Manchester, he went to the bar and asked for a pint of Guinness.
The barman nodded and said, "That will be £1 please, Mr. O'Leary."
Somewhat taken aback, O'Leary replied, "That's very cheap," and handed over his money.
"Well, we do try to stay ahead of the competition", said the barman. "And we are serving free pints every Wednesday from 6 pm until 8 pm. We have the cheapest beer in England".
"That is remarkable value", Michael comments.
"I see you don't seem to have a glass, so you'll probably need one of ours. That will be £3 please."
O'Leary scowled, but paid up.
He took his drink and walked towards a seat. "Ah, you want to sit down?" said the barman. "That'll be an extra £2. You could have pre-booked the seat, and it would have only cost you £1."
"I think you may be too big for the seat sir, can I ask you to sit in this frame please".
Michael attempts to sit down but the frame is too small and when he can't squeeze in, he complains "Nobody would fit in that little frame".
"I'm afraid if you can't fit in the frame you'll have to pay an extra surcharge of £4 for your seat sir".
O'Leary swore to himself, but paid up. "I see that you have brought your laptop with you" added the barman. "And since that wasn't pre-booked either, that will be another £3."
O'Leary was so incensed that he walked back to the bar, slammed his drink on the counter, and yelled, "This is ridiculous, I want to speak to the manager".
"I see you want to use the counter," says the barman, "that will be £2 please."
O'Leary's face was red with rage. "Do you know who I am?"
"Of course I do Mr. O'Leary."
"I've had enough! What sort of a Hotel is this? I come in for a quiet drink and you treat me like this. I insist on speaking to a manager!"
"Here is his e-mail address, or if you wish, you can contact him between 9.00 am and 9.01am every morning, Monday to Tuesday at this free phone number. Calls are free, until they are answered, then there is a talking charge of only £1 per second, or part thereof".
"I will never use this bar again".
"OK sir, but do remember, we are the only hotel in England selling pints for £1."
Have a good weekend

You may never fly the Millennium Falcon with a Wookie by your side, but at least you can fly down a hill on a rough approximation of the famous ship. That's still pretty good.
The Millennium Falcon sled is essentially a souped-up saucer sled, allowing you to fly down an icy slope, spinning around wildly and running into young kids who aren't quite sure what someone as old as you is doing on the old sledding hill. It's pretty expensive for a saucer sled at $US34.99, but at the end of the day, it's shaped like the Millennium Falcon. I mean, come on. [Amazon via Oh Gizmo!]

The Cadillac CT6 is built on GM's Omega architecture which is both incredibly stiff and incredibly light. The stiffness leads to a quieter and more controlled ride, while the lightness leads to better handling and a lowered reliance on big, inefficient engines. In fact, the CT6 is lighter than both the smaller BMW 5-Series and the Mercedes Benz E-Class, not to mention the bigger BMW 7-series and Mercedes S-Class, cars that more closely match the CT6's cavernous interior.
Power comes from one of five engine options. The base engine is a 2.0L turbocharged 4-cylinder that makes 265 horsepower. Power is sent to the rear wheels via an 8-speed automatic transmission. For buyers wanting the smoothness of a V6, a 3.6L V6 making 335 horsepower is available, while a more powerful 3.0L twin-turbocharged V6 making 404 horsepower is available as well. Both V6 engines also come with an 8-speed automatic, however all-wheel drive is standard with either V6. The most powerful option is a 4.2L V8 engine, fed by twin-turbochargers, producing 550 horsepower and 627 lb-ft of torque.
For buyers who wants something a little different, Cadillac has offered a plug in Hybrid for 2019. Utilizing the 2.0L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine and a pair of electric motors, the Hybrid boasts 335 hp and an impressive 432 lb-ft of torque.
Building a luxury car in 2019 means equipping it with plenty of toys and the CT6 is no exception. Available features are indulgent and numerous with everything from safety to rear seat entertainment taken into consideration.
Cadillac's OnStar system now adds Wi-Fi connectivity, making the entire car a Wi-Fi hotspot, while a 10.2-inch touch screen multi-informational display mounted in the dashboard serves as the primary input. It's an advanced unit that is even able to recognize handwriting through its touchscreen. It's also cleverly placed to allow usage while the driver or passenger rests their arm on the armrest. An Advanced Park Assist program makes even tight city parking easy, or for those who simply want to do it on their own, a 360-degree camera is available essentially eliminating blind spots.
There is plenty to appreciate in the CT6's cabin besides the various electronic doodads as well. Interiors are swathed in leather, with wood or carbon fiber trim, while LED interior illumination looks modern and distinctive. Seats are heated with woven in heating elements and for the truly indulgent, a seat massaging system is available with five different programs.
Those who spend any time in the back seat of the CT6 can stretch out with over 40-inches of rear leg room. A rear seat package includes articulating 10-inch screens which retract into the front seatbacks as well as adjustable rear seats with up to 3.3-inches of travel. Climate control is, of course, a 4-zone affair while the optional stereo boasts no fewer than 34 speakers.

text: The Nikon Coolpix S3000–and really all sub-$150 ultracompact digital cameras–is a step-up from a camera phone. It has a better lens, shooting options, performance, image quality, and battery life than a mobile device without weighing you down. However, in the world of point-and-shoots this is a lower-end model and it shows under slight scrutiny. Don't get this camera if you're planning to shoot indoors or in low light without a flash, take pictures of fast-moving subjects, or if you want really sharp shots directly from the camera. Consider it for casual photography of well-lit portraits and landscapes that will be shared online or as 4×6-inch prints and the occasional 8×10. It's a Facebook camera that can do things the average camera phone can't.

The state of "being lost" does not have a positive connotation in the minds of most of us nowadays and it's true, it can be a terrifying and even deadly experience.
I recall the first time I got lost—I was just three and on a shopping trip to a local department store with my mother. She was trying on a dress and I grew bored after a while, sitting on a bench with my legs dangling while other mothers came by and pinched me on the cheek.
I could smell the aroma of fresh roasted nuts somewhere and I followed my nose as children often do. Suddenly I realized, from my perspective, just two and a half feet above the carpet, that I could no longer see my mother.
I can still remember the moment of absolute terror that gripped me as I spun frantically in all directions, searching for the sight of that familiar face.
Before I could even begin to get too hysterical though, I heard mom's voice and followed it back home to the comfort and security of her arms.
I suppose all children experience something similar and perhaps that's why we spend the rest of our lives trying to avoid getting lost again. But is it as bad as we have convinced ourselves? Is getting lost always something we should fear and dread?
And do we truly understand what "getting lost" means?
Once, on a Stiles Family Vacation, we were on our way to Clearwater Beach, FL, in the pre-interstate highway days, and my dad had to negotiate the streets of Atlanta. We made a few wrong turns and I could hear him losing patience as we began to travel in circles.
"Are we lost?" I asked my dad anxiously.
"NO!" he said. "I am NOT lost... I just don't know where we are."
Very often that's the case. He knew he'd find his way out of Atlanta eventually, even if it took the rest of the afternoon and only after he'd relinquished a bit of his manhood by asking a local for directions. Still he wasn't lost.
And there was an upside to our misadventure. We saw parts of Atlanta that we would have otherwise missed and the gentleman who found us on the map and pointed us straight was an interesting character that we would have otherwise never met. Being "lost" was at least more interesting than if we'd sailed smoothly through town without a hitch.
Now, not only is it difficult to get lost or misplaced on a road trip, it's damn near impossible. Interstate freeways bypass cities and small towns alike, though I suppose a few inept souls could get lost in the endless loop of a cloverleaf interchange.
If we need directions, there's little hope of finding an interesting character to quiz; the best we can dream of, since they're located at nearly every freeway exit from New York to L.A., is the blank and disinterested stare of a McDonalds trainee.
Tens of million Americans have installed GPS units in their vehicles, so they don't even need to consult the road atlas. Instead a metallic dispassionate "voice" tells us where to go. I'd like to turn the tables someday and tell a GPS unit "where to go," but I suspect the conversation would go nowhere.
The brutal predictability of daily life is, in fact, the reason more of us seek something different in the rural backways of America. But here again, our fear of getting lost has taken the fun and adventure out of the very experience we seek.
Aldo Leopold said, "To what avail are 40 freedoms without a blank spot on the map?"
But guidebook writers, whose literary endeavors stand toe-to-toe with the lofty rhetoric of used car salesmen, are determined to make short change of those blank spots in short order.
One writer, so prolific at his craft that's he's almost made himself extinct, asked a friend of mine, "Can you think of other places that need guidebooks? You know...where people would pay money?" There was a hint of desperation in his voice.
Portable GPS units and cell phones have made backcountry hiking and four-wheeling about as revelatory as a trip to the mall. Lost? Check your GPS unit. Lost with a broken ankle or the Jeep's stuck in mud up to its axles? Call a tow truck or the ambulance on your cell phone after you figure your location on your GPS.
Some adventure. Search & Rescue teams don't even get to hone their tracking skills anymore. At this rate, they'll start getting lost as well.
And if all that life-saving technology is too intimidating, the catered backcountry tour offers the safest option of all. Nobody's going to get lost on a four hour tour when they pay $150 for the experience.
Getting your customers lost is...well, it's just bad business. And be sure of this, the commercial exploitation of wilderness in the American West will someday send cold shivers down the spines of earnest environmentalists who failed to see the threat in the early 21st Century.
Ultimately, the fear of getting lost has more to do with our rapidly diminished self-reliance than anything else. Our inability to take care of ourselves, to be responsible for our own safety and well-being, has left many of us fearful of and intimidated by the Great Unknown. We long for a Mystery, are inspired by Adventure, but we don't even know what they are anymore.
Packaged and marketed beyond recognition.
For myself, I don't particularly long to be lost in the irreversible sense, but I love it when I don't know where I am. Try it sometime—it may be a transcendental experience.

I've done 3 using Model 1 kits all perform flawlessly.
They do not make anything, it's all outsourced from the same suppliers that everyone else uses. CMT upper receivers, Shaw barrels etc.
There are very few kit suppliers who actually make anything, they just buy it in bulk and repackage the parts and assemble uppers.

A Sandwich a Day: The Tunisian Tuna Sandwich at Balaboosta
A new sandwich every day.
In this great city of ours, one could eat a different sandwich every day of the year—so that's what we'll do. Here's A Sandwich a Day, our daily look at sandwiches around New York. Got a sandwich we should check out? Let us know. —The Mgmt.
I had a friend who used to work in an office where he'd go out for a tuna salad sandwich for lunch every afternoon. He'd order his sandwich with extra onions, chopped olives, and pickled peppers, then bring it back and eat it at his desk. Surrounded by co-workers.
Notice I said he used to work there.
I don't often eat a tuna sandwich, but when I do, I do it away from my co-workers. These days, that's usually at Balaboosta, which may just have my favorite rendition of the sandwich ever, and no, it's not exactly office-friendly.
The key to the sandwich ($12) is in the tuna salad itself: High quality olive-oil packed tuna gets a generous mix-in of house-made harissa. I like the stuff from a tube just fine, but Balaboosta's is something else entirely; complex with four types of dried chilies (including smoked paprika and chipotles), and fragrant with a half dozen other spices, with coriander and cumin leading the charge.
On top, you get layers of thinly sliced hard boiled egg, sliced potato, and sweet-tart pickled shredded carrots. The whole thing is sealed up in a soft mini ciabatta-like roll and pressed until crisp, the tuna barely warmed through. Served with a side salad, it's a pretty ideal lunch.
To eat on your own, that is.

Her show(wo)manship is out-of-this-world, but her wardrobe choices: not exactly
something to mirror. In September, the diva made headlines when she hit the MTV
Video Music Awards red carpet donning a dress made of
bloody, raw red meat. Now that Halloween has arrived: the meat dress is the number one
searched costume on the web.
Before you run to your
nearest butcher to create these beefy duds, you might want to hit the
ATM. According to the Daily News, the costume would cost about $1,000 for
custom tailoring (or butchery in this instance). The article quotes New York City
meat carver Andrew Ilnicki, who claims "it would take
10 hours." But butchers across the river in New Jersey told the Star Ledger that revelers should instead put their meat where their mouth is.
you're looking to recreate the gory Gaga look, it's probably best you stick to vegetarian
friendly options. You can start with this faux bacon wallet and tack on these bacon sneakers.

The Classic Small Edwardian Conservatory
Our small edwardian conservatories offer a classic design suitable for every modern home. The rectangular floor makes the most of your available space for furniture, and the dwarf wall gives the conservatory a permanent feel. The pitch of edwardian conservatory roof and the direction of the ridge can be changed to suit practically any property (even those with height restrictions such as bungalows) providing a classic addition to your home.
Create an elegant entrance in and out of your conservatory...
Fitting a set of doors to your conservatory can give it a whole new dimension. It's up to you to decide if they are to swing, fold or slide, a choice that may depend upon how you intend on using the space. Expect only the best security and smooth and easy operation.
Bi-Folding Doors
Contemporary home living and Bi-Folding Doors go hand-in-hand. Stunning, striking, sophisticated, these inventive doors will take your home to a whole new level aesthetically and enable you to completely open out your abode to the outside world in a way you never thought imaginable. Thanks to its concertina effect, whether fully unobstructed or partially ajar, you can eradicate the barrier between the indoors and outdoors whilst maintaining the on-trend visual appeal that every modern residence aspires to.
Patio Doors
Contemporary home living and Bi-Folding Doors go hand-in-hand. Stunning, striking, sophisticated, these inventive doors will take your home to a whole new level aesthetically and enable you to completely open out your abode to the outside world in a way you never thought imaginable. Thanks to its concertina effect, whether fully unobstructed or partially ajar, you can eradicate the barrier between the indoors and outdoors whilst maintaining the on-trend visual appeal that every modern residence aspires to.
French Doors
Fitting French Doors will give your home an irresistible continental flavour that projects double the normal amount of sunlight and ventilation of a traditional front or back door due to its unique opening. Unquestionably a helpful way of connecting together internal and external locations, French Doors can also be used to link up key areas within the family home such as kitchens with living or dining rooms and conservatories. They'll prove a priceless addition for those social get-togethers.
Seeking the modern or antiquated look - we have it all...
Giving your conservatory a personality of its own can make your home extension stand-out from any other in the neighbourhood and the choice of window and door frame will have a strong bearing on its individuality. Determining the dimensions and contours ought to be a top priority as they're what it gives it gives the essential distinctiveness you desire.
The infinite assets of UPVC make it an ever popular favourite with the modern homeowner. It's an enduring material that once fitted needs virtually no care and attention throughout the duration of its extensive lifespan. The thermal efficiency performance of UPVC is another huge draw as it reduces the need for an over dependency on central heating, having the ability to retain heat generated by the sun for long periods of time. Because it's flexible, it can also be moulded and sculptured into many different forms.
Aluminium often solely gets pigeonholed as durable and tough, which whilst completely true, hides its other endearing qualities such as its sleekness which enables a significant glass area to be integrated within it. More glass means enhanced views, a warmer atmosphere and energy efficiency of the very highest order. The plethora of powdered coated finishes compatible with aluminium also makes for a rich and assorted selection of colours suitable for homes both new and old. The woodgrain finish in particular will leave you shaking your head in disbelief that it's not original timber; seeing is believing.
Heritage Design
It looks like timber, it even feels like timber. Such is the meticulous detail and intricacy put into Heritage windows and doors that you can easily be forgiven for mistaking them for wood. Using the traditional 19th Century timber window as a barometer of perfection, the Heritage frame recreates its artistry in design and unites it with all the key features of a 21st Century equivalent i.e. low maintenance, strong, highly energy efficient. Such is its resemblance to timber and the fact that Heritage windows and doors are mechanically jointed, that they're often a viable solution for those living in a conservation area.
The roof plays an integral role in comfortable living...
Colour choice and design are hugely important, but having the correct roof fitted to your conservatory is as, if not even more crucial than anything else. Each roof option offers something completely different and will beautifully in tandem with any windows and doors.
Polycarbonate Roofs
The polycarbonate roof has all the necessary credentials needed of a reliable conservatory roof as has been proved time and time again, hence why even to this day it remains a huge favourite. Whatever the weather, the clear, opal or bronze 25mm or 35mm polycarbonate sheets will safeguard the temperature of the extension so that conservatory living can be savoured 24/7. For added thermal efficiency there's even optional foil inserts available which will help reduce the glare of the sun to enhance your enjoyment.
Glass Roofs
A glass roof will allow you to look up into the heavens and get a crystal clear view of the skies above. Possessing the resistance required to see off the noisiness of heavy rain and hail, so that you can relax in the upmost tranquillity, it also offers a very welcome level of solar control. Don't want to have to go to the trouble of cleaning and maintaining the roof every few months? Self-cleaning glass will do the job for you and remain in pristine condition which is especially useful if access to the area is limited or difficult. In terms of appearances, the conservatory roof will be totally sympathetic to your glazed windows and doors.
Solid Roof
The transparency of a solid roof may not be that of the glass or polycarbonate variety but it endears itself in terms of its external guise and internal view which massively differs from any alternative roofing solutions. Whilst it is true that the transmission of natural light through a solid roof may be somewhat sacrificed, this shouldn't be viewed as a negative, as it brings about heightened privacy and you can always encourage light further by integrating spotlights or implementing roof windows. To further keep your home and extension complementary to one another, opt for matching roof tiles for that perfect finishing touch.
Finding the perfect conservatory takes careful consideration...
Investing in and having a conservatory fitted at your home is an opportunity that needs to be relished and enjoyed from start to finish. Planning is key so that from the first moment you decide to go ahead with the project you're fully up to speed with all the necessary obligations and contemplations. Luckily, you're in safe hands as each of our design consultants has the know-how required to make the buying process a stress-free undertaking. Here are some things to think about.
Determining an appropriate positioning for the conservatory is of paramount importance as it will establish which glazing specification best suits. An extension facing north or east will attract the best of the sunshine in the early hours of the day, but become cooler as the day progresses. On the other hand, those placed in direct proximity to the south or west usually entice solar gain in the afternoons and evenings.
The ways in which you can utilise a conservatory are far too numerous to name here but it's something that should be settled upon at the earliest stage as a suitable style, size, specification and layout will need to be sourced to accommodate your ideas. For the maximum amount of floor space we recommend a square or rectangular extension, although you can always put your own stamp on it by going down the bespoke route.
Sometimes it's the littlest things that make the biggest of differences. Once you're happy with how the finished conservatory design will look, it's then time to consider which other essentials are necessary to confirm luxury extended living. Be sure to call upon your design consultant for a helping hand.
Put two what seem like identical conservatories next to each other and the quote given for one, may be totally different to the other. How can this be? Home improvement firms source their materials from differing suppliers and the materials themselves may be of a varying quality which can result in a massive price differential. But remember, quality tells. Buying cheap doesn't always turn out to be the value for money bargain you were expecting. It's your responsibility to decipher which quote will turn out to be a long-term investment worth your money.
Checking out the terms of any guarantee is essential for added peace of mind. You rightly want and expect your conservatory to endure the test of time so the last thing you want is for anything to go wrong and find out that the validity period has expired or that any failing in the product is subject to exclusions leaving you badly out of pocket.
Your conservatory may be subject to planning / building regulations...
Should your proposed conservatory installation be subject to Planning Permission & Building Regulations which will deal with such obligations with the relevant local authority on your behalf. In some circumstances, Planning Permission & Building Regulations will not need to be met. Our downloadable Planning Factsheet will put you more in the loop.Download Factsheet
We have multiple stylish coloured finishes to suit every taste...
The diversity of colour available at West Yorkshire Windows makes marrying your conservatory with your home a simple job. Whitegrain, black, light oak, grey, cream and green, you name it; we have all bases covered, with each colour guaranteed to give your conservatory an abundance of personality and designer flair. That's not to say that traditional white should be ignored, far from it. But it's always nice to have other eye-catching options.
No matter what design you prefer, our conservatories will go beyond your expectations.

CCM RBZ Junior Skates
The RBZ skate series addresses the need for speed, and was designed to maximize explosiveness and reaction speed. It has a generous anatomical fit profile with a standard heel and a deep heel contour to give you a nice heel lock. Since it does have such a deep heel contour, instead of the typical "1.5 sizes smaller than shoe size" rule of thumb, CCM recommends 2 sizes smaller than shoe size as a starting point when getting fitted for these skates. Of course, personal preference trumps the rules. Fit and performance are further enhanced on the RBZ because in addition to the standard footbed that comes with them, CCM is also including a pair of Custom Support Insoles. They come in three different arch heights to provide full contact to the foot's sole, which in turn stimulates greater reaction in the foot muscles for enhanced speed. To help determine which arch type you are, please refer to our CCM Custom Support Insoles video.
For the quarter of the skate, CCM uses what it calls Action Form™ Composite for the outer shell + Speedcore Technology in the middle. Basically, with the relatively stiff inner layer, it creates a sandwich-like construction that is very receptive to heat molding and provides an excellent combination of lightweight and stiffness. In fact, CCM claims that it is 24% stiffer than the U+ Crazy Light, so you really get a lot of lateral support in these skates. The improved boot cut has been brought in a little and provides a deeper flexion zone and reduced boot fatigue plus the addition of the smooth contour high edge reduces high ankle abrasion. Heel lock from the deep heel counter is further enhanced through the use of high density memory foam. The fact that these react so well to heat molding just adds to the already great amount of customization that this skate offers, which of course is going to further reduce break in time.
The tongue is made of Pro Injected Foam and Felt with Added Lace Bite Protection and you can see that it gives you a good amount of forward flex. The RBZ has the ventilated full lightweight carbon composite outsole which helps reduce weight in a skate and provides excellent rigidity under the boot. This is where you'll find the SpeedBlade + 4.0 holder which is aptly named because of its additional 4.0mm height which provides a significantly deeper angle of attack for tighter turns. You'll also notice what CCM likes to call SpeedRibs near the top of the holder, the structure of which helps increase torsional rigidity. Finally, you'll notice the reflective look of the polished high quality steel that is referred to as the SpeedBlade Hyperglide runner. While the 10 foot radius enhances speed, the quality and hard finish reduces friction for more glide and better edging.
With so many technological advancements that all point to increasing your foot speed, there is a reason that CCM refers to the RBZ skates as Speed to the Extreme. Get Fast!

Physical Penetration Testing
Sat, December 12 - Sun, December 13, 2015
Physical security is an oft-overlooked component of data and system security in the technology world. While frequently forgotten, it is no less critical than timely patches, appropriate password policies, and proper user permissions.

Green Bay Packers tickets
Football is by far the most popular sport in the United States but also hugely popular all over worldwide. With a fervent fan base and some of the affluent athletes in the universe, Football's history can be delineated back to the early part of the 20th century when a number of leagues started cropping up in varied areas throughout the country.
Today the National Football League, or NFL, has become one of the best-known sports leagues on the planet and, depending on where you live in the country, if you're a football fan you generally have defined and distinct alliances to the particular team that either plays in your city or a neighboring one.
For example, if you live in Green Bay you are most likely a Packers fan. Packers fans are, to put it gently, extremely bombastic of their team and have no hesitation voicing their particular opinion about how great it is and how tough the Green Bay Packers players are. They say that if you're an Green Bay Packers fan you bleed Packers colors and, frankly, I for one wouldn't dare test this theory on any lifelong Packers fan come game time.
There are thirty-two teams around the U.S. that are a part of the NFL and your allegiances definitely will be formed based on either where you were born or where you grew up. This actually makes for interesting and exciting games because, since Americans tend to move quite frequently, you can sometimes find many fans of one city's team residing in a different area but still cheering for "their" team when they are in town to play the home team.
Some states, and indeed some cities, have multiple NFL teams that represents them. usually you can find one of these teams representing the NFC, or National Football Conference, while the other represents the Atlantic Football Conference, or AFC.

The Green Bay Packers have announced plans to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the opening of Lambeau Field this season.

"Fans visiting Lambeau this year will have a number of fun ways to celebrate its anniversary. We look forward to welcoming them here and taking part in recognizing the great tradition of our proud stadium."

The earning potential is entirely up to your work efforts. The more you work, the more you can earn. With all of the job programs the pay structure will be different from job to job. If you prefer to make an hourly wage -- we have jobs that pay by the hour. If you want to be paid for each completed assignment -- we have those jobs available. If you want to earn higher income through commissions -- we will provide those job opportunities as well. We cover all the bases.
How much you earn is entirely up to you. If you can only spend limited time (maybe at start) you can earn $100 a day spending as little as an hour a day which is a nice supplement to your current income. Once you dedicate more time you can start earning a very nice income that can replace your current income. Dedicated members of our work-at-home jobs program can earn as much as $500 or more per day!

Mission Statement
The usual failure of work-at-home jobs is that the person does not have the three "D's" of a successful work-at-home entrepreneur. These three "D's" are Desire, Determination and Direction. If you have the first two D's, we will provide the last "D" in the equation!
CNBC featured "Online Data-Entry Clerk" job in their article for Top Jobs You Can Do From the Beach." They list this as the #6 job. This shows the legitimacy of the jobs we will show you with this work-at-home job training program. Read the article

Delcam's 2014 R2 version of FeatureCAM features improvements for roughing operations. The software now supports multiple tools for roughing and rest-roughing operations, including 20-, 10- and 5-mm end mills. A stock model is created automatically after each tool is applied and is then used as the basis for the program created with the next smaller cutter. This regular updating of the stock model is said to ensure that programs for the later tools are only created in areas where material still remains, minimizing air moves and optimizing overall machining efficiency. Rough machining has also been improved with a new option to set the direction in which Z-level roughing tool paths are offset. The user can select whether the part should be machined from the outside inward or vice versa. The software can also automatically choose the offset direction depending on the core or cavity shape.
The new release also provides enhanced capabilities for right-angle heads, enabling milling of internal pockets and drilling of internal holes that would be inaccessible with a conventional head. Additionally, the software is now able to project the curve of wire EDM through the stock and measure the thickness of the feature. Cutting conditions including feeds, speeds and power levels can be set at the values most suitable for the EDM equipment. Cutter compensation can be specified on operation level, avoiding the need to create duplicate features to set different values.

WATERLOO, Ont. - BlackBerry (TSX:BB) has reached an agreement to sell a majority of its Canadian real estate holdings as part of an effort to improve its business.
The company said Friday it will sell more than three million square feet of space and vacant lands and lease back a portion of the properties.
BlackBerry did not disclose the buyer or the purchase price as it said the sale was still subject to unspecified conditions.
"The successful sale of property in Canada will help us move toward our goal of continued operational efficiency," CEO and executive chairman John Chen said in a statement.
The company had announced in January that it planned to sell the majority of its Canadian real estate holdings.
BlackBerry pioneered the smartphone in 1999 and dominated for years, but since the late 2000s the company has been hammered by competition from the iPhone as well as Android-based rivals.
Under Chen — who took on the CEO post permanently late last year — BlackBerry has been working to turn around its business.
Chen said that BlackBerry is still committed to having a strong presence in Canada. It is keeping its headquarters in Waterloo, Ont.
The company said that more terms of the transaction will be announced once principal conditions are satisfied or waived.
The deal is expected to close in the first quarter of the company's 2015 financial year, which ends June 1, 2014.
BlackBerry has been cutting costs and restructuring its business in a bid to stay alive including a plan to eliminate of about 40 per cent of the company's workforce.
In December, the company sold a handful of buildings to the University of Waterloo for $41 million under an agreement that would allow the company to lease back some of them for up to five years.
And earlier this month, BlackBerry sold its U.S. headquarters in Irving, Texas, to Brookfield Property Group for an undisclosed amount. The company plans to lease back at least part of the six-building location.
Blackberry is scheduled to report its fourth-quarter and full-year results March 28.
Shares in the company shares rose 12 cents to C$10.73 in trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange in trading Friday.

By rethinking our relationship to carbon and green waste.
Earth has a natural way of regulating carbon — plants. Plants take up atmospheric carbon (CO2) and convert it into food and oxygen. When plants die, the remaining carbon in their structure decomposes and is stored in Earth's soil. Time, heat, and pressure fossilizes decayed plant (and animal) matter into what we refer to as fossil fuels (coal or oil). This is Earth's long-term carbon storage system.
The mining of these fossil fuels for energy has disrupted this process. Every time we mine fossil fuels, we are extracting millennia's worth of trapped carbon from the soil. When we burn these fossil fuels for energy, we are emitting millennia's worth of trapped carbon into the air as CO2. Due to our reliance on the fossil fuel industry, we are extracting and burning a record amount of fossil fuels everyday, releasing CO2 faster than Earth's natural cycles are able to keep up. According to the IPCC our rate our CO2 emission has caused a 1 degree global increase in temperature, .5 degrees away from long-lasting or irreversible changes. Needless to say, we must do everything we can to slow down our rate of CO2 emission.
At Local Carbon Network, we are turning to waste as the solution.
By bringing together people, plants, and machines we can re-fossilize and trap CO2 back into the soil, preventing it from being released into the sky. We do this via a process called gasification which is high heat with no oxygen. This process effectively re-fossilizes 50% of the CO2 into wood-charcoal, commonly known as biochar. Co-composting this biochar effectively traps carbon into the soil for millennia.
We source local woody biomass waste that would otherwise go to municipal burn facility and convert it into Biochar using technology that allows the simultaneous production of electricity and heat. We find sponsor funding to purchase a supply of the biochar to donate to the local community gardens. We supply the gardens and teach them how to co-compost with the Biochar (and reintroduce it back into the soil, effectively trapping carbon into the soil and regenerating soil health)
If you are interested in composting – become a Muck Boot Arctic Sport High Performance Tall Steel Toe Insulated Men's Rubber Work Boot – you could support the project by signing up for a yearly composting subscription and receive an insulated tumbling composter as well as a yearly supply of biochar. We reinvest the profit into sponsoring other projects. Alternatively you could involve your local community garden and apply for a sponsorship.
If you are producing woody biomass – become a Biochar Producer – our equipment converts 6 tons of woody waste biomass each month, producing 60mw/h of renewable electricity, 120 mW/h of heat and 300kg of Biochar (enough for 3 tons of compost) – you can become a biochar producer if you produce 6 tons of woody green waste per month or can form a community project to reach that amount.
If you are a local business – become a Sponsor – instead of investing only on advertising you can associate your brand to Climate Impact and really enable Carbon Drawdown in your area.

People have put Australia's Ashes defeat down to many things. personally, I put it down to the fact that the best team won, and that the Aussies were lucky it wasn't 3 or 4-1. Nonetheless, i am renowned for stupidity and another oft heard excuse is that Australia were simply below par - which I don't really consider an excuse to be honest, and I'm sure most Aussies will agree with me. If you're below par, you're not good enough, and it's no use using being rubbish as an excuse. Otherwise, by some twisted logic we could have claimed to be the best team in the world in 1999. Anyway, enough of me chatting nonsense. (No, I'm not hanging up my keyboard)
A couple of weeks back, I had 3 or 4 very quiet days in work, and had exhausted the internet. I ended up coming across last year's Official Ashes thread. I actually got quite a long way into it before workloads picked up again, but nonetheless, everybody, and I mean EVERYBODY thought Australia would win. Most felt they would walk it. There was one guy, who I don't think has been seen since, who kept trumpeting on about how we would win 2-1, and was dismissed as stupid. (Spot the contradiction btw)
To me, it seems that the same is happening this year. Our own are pessimistic, and the Aussies are already planning an open bus parade. Is this lessons not being learnt, or have things changed THAT much in the last 12 months?
I know one thing that's changed is that we have been inconsistent. Bottled it at Multan, woeful in Lahore, good at Nagpur, heroic in Mumbai, boring and dreary twice at Lord's, dominant at Old Trafford and pathetic at Trent Bridge. That obviously contrasts with the build-up to the previous Ashes series where we swept all before us. This time, a win and a defeat to Pakistan counter one another, as to the results against India and Sri Lanka. It's fair to say that is difficult to see where we really stand at this point in time.
On the other side, the Aussies have swept all before them since the Ashes, but let's be honest, the only time they were likely to have any difficulties was in South Africa, but they didn't. Instead, Bangladesh scared them, and no #1 side should ever need their #7 batsman to rescue them against Bangladesh. Nonetheless, the scheduling was stupid. and it's fair to say the Aussies were taken aback by what they were presented with against Bangladesh ; who can blame them, we were all surprised.
My point? It's basically this. The last 12 months have taught us little about either side. Various new players have been blooded into each team, but for better or worse? Jason Gillespie and Mike Kasprowicz were both woeful last summer, yet both have played since, despite the initial hardline stance by the Aussie selectors, post-Ashes. Mike Hussey has come in, and no doubt seems to improve the batting. Is it an overall better package from the Aussies though? I have my doubts, and I think if anything befalls Warne or McGrath then their could be humble pie dished out dramatically.
As for us, well the skipper has played just twice, Flintoff has been sidelined, Simon Jones has not played for England since Trent Bridge (except in a couple of warm-ups in India), Ashley Giles is a long-term casaulty etc etc. Yet are we really in a worse position than we were? Allastair Cook is far from the finished article, but has been full of runs - what else do you want from your batsmen in Test cricket? Strauss has returned to form. Collingwood has imrpoved his Test average by about 30+. Ian Bell looks far more confident, and can't stop making Test centuries. Chris Read has replaced Geraint and is scoring runs. We have a spin bowler who has taken wickets regularly throughout the summer.
Sure, the injuries are a worry - but then again, Glenn McGrath doesn't have much Cricket in his legs, and hasn't put in a world-class performance since Lord's. Sure, we have issues with who will be the fourth seamer - if we pick one, as Anderson may not be fit, and Saj and Plunks don't cut the mustard in many eyes - but then again names like Stuart Clark don't exactly strike fear into the oppositions heart. And some might say that Brett Lee is vastly overrated in Test matches. And NOTHING will delight our batsmen more than seeing Jason Gillespie's name on the teamsheet.
Don't get me wrong, Australia are favourites rightfully. But all this talk of England being embarassed and vastly inferior, it's crazy, crazy, crazy. We've not learnt very much about either side since last year. All the learning will be done this winter. We are 7-2. Worth a tenner if you ask me.

Recently I gave a talk at the Personal Digital Archiving conference, in which I described what I've learned from 15+ years of using TheBrain.
It was a really fun talk to give, both because everyone present is working on how to preserve our many-faceted personal information, and because my use of TheBrain has given me many insights.
For a quick intro to my Brain before you watch this, view this earlier post of mine here.
The projected Brain you see in the video isn't that clear, for which I apologize. You can partly make up for that by tracking where I go from my online Brain, starting here.

Prince William and Kate Middleton took a moment on Tuesday to pay tribute to those killed in the shooting at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida, over the weekend.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge looked somber as they signed a book of condolences at the American Embassy in central London. They were greeted by the U.S. Ambassador Matthew Barzun before each of them took a moment to send a message to the victims and their families.
After reading Barzun's note, Prince William wrote, "With our deepest condolences and with our thoughts and prayers to all those affected." Kate stood solemnly beside him before eventually signing her name beside her husband's. Behind them, a flag hung that was previously presented to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton by the Kaleidoscope Trust, an international LGBT rights group.

The Horror in Orlando: Social Media Proves It Has a Real Purpose in Times Like These
The couple also spoke with some of the embassy workers who are part of GLIFAA--LGBT pride in foreign affairs agencies--and donned custom-made badges that featured a combination of the British and American pride flags.
On Tuesday, William also revealed that he's being featured on the cover of the U.K. gay magazine, "Attitude" to speak out against bullying people because of their sexuality.
Though Prince Harry was not in attendance at the U.S. embassy, a source tells US Weekly that he has been "speaking at length to people out in Orlando privately." He recently spent quite a bit of time in the Florida city while leading the Invictus Games.
Omar Mateen opened fire at the gay club on Sunday morning after pledging his allegiance to terrorist group ISIS. The tragedy is now marked as the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history, killing 49 people and leaving dozens injured.

Despite the presence of three headline-grabbing strikers in Freddy Adu, Brian McBride and Jozy Altidore, it was hard-working midfielder Stuart Holden who scored the only goal as the USA won their first Men's Olympic Football Tournament Group B match against Japan on Thursday in Tianjin.
After some cagey early exchanges, the game settled into a cautious rhythm around the ten-minute mark. After 14 minutes the contest saw its first real chance as Brian McBride, doing the dirty work with his back to goal, laid the ball off for Michael Bradley at the top of the box. Despite getting some power behind it, the Heerenveen man's shot flew right in to the waiting arms of Shusaku Nishikawa.
Next it was Japan's turn to look dangerous. Mid-way through the half, a brilliantly conceived corner kick caught the American defence asleep. After receiving a return-ball after an intricate exchange, Atsuto Uchida cut inside and laid on a low cross for Masato Morishige. But with the goal at his mercy the defender could only push wide of Brad Guzan's post.
Both sides had good chances as the half ground to a scoreless close, with Freddy Adu -17 years the junior of strike partner McBride - firing a wicked volley inches over Nishikawa's bar and a cross from Uchida nearly forced USA defender Marvell Wynne to put through his own net.
It took the Americans only two minutes of the second half to find the go-ahead goal. Speedy fullback Wynne roared up the right side and slammed in a cross that the Japanese defence failed to deal with. Stuart Holden of Houston Dynamo roared through and took advantage of the poor clearance, knocking home past Nishikawa who was able to get a hand to it.
Jozy Altidore came on as a late second-half sub for the tiring McBride and nearly put the US two in front with ten minutes to go, but the Japanese goalkeeper did well to come off his line and deny the new Villarreal signing close range.
Up next for the US is a date with the Dutch on 10 August, while the Japanese will take on Nigeria earlier that day.

Award of Merit - 2011
Established in 1950, this award is given to signify that a cultivar is not only distinctive and beautiful, but also performs well over a wide geographic area. The award is made each year to the twelve cultivars receiving the most votes by the garden judges under the following formula: A cultivar must receive votes from at least half of the AHS regions, and not more than one-third of the total votes credited to a cultivar shall come from any one region. If this occurs, the vote tabulator is instructed to deduct an equal and sufficient number of votes from both the excess region total and from the national total until the remaining adjusted figures bear the allowable relationship to each other. To be eligible for the Award of Merit, a cultivar must have received the Honorable Mention Award a minimum of three years previously. It will remain eligible for three years. Two years after winning an Award of Merit, a cultivar automatically moves into competition for the Stout Silver Medal. In voting for this award, Garden Judges must cast their votes only for cultivars observed in their own region.

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) ? An Oregon man has been accused of harassing at least a dozen families of the victims of the mass shooting in Aurora, Colo., telling them the killings didn't happen or the caskets of victims were empty.
Kevin Purfield, 45, of Portland pleaded not guilty at Thursday's arraignment on charges of telephone harassment and stalking counts, both misdemeanors. Multnomah County Judge Adrienne Nelson increased Purfield's bail from $10,000 to $100,000 at the prosecution's request and appointed Cate Wollam as his attorney.
Aurora police spokesman Frank Fania said Purfield was adept online at finding ways to make contact with the family members, and used email, social media and phone calls to get to them.
Then Purfield spun fantastic theories, Fania said.
"It starts out that the shootings didn't really happen," Fania said. "It goes into things such as that at the funeral your relative's body wasn't in the casket."
Sometimes, if he didn't get a rise out of a relative, he dropped the communication, Fania said. In other cases, and particularly if the relative responded, Purfield launched into vile, obscene "flat-out attacks," Fania said.
The attacks changed the communications into harassment, he said.
Fania said the family members were in several states, and Oregon authorities were brought into an investigation in February.
Portland police said they'd had previous contacts with Purfield, including one instance Sgt. Pete Simpson described as a "mental health hold." Public defender Audra Kaleta, who represented Purfield at the arraignment, told the judge that Purfield has had mental health issues.
Purfield was arrested and booked Wednesday. His next court date is May 17.
James Holmes is charged with killing 12 people and injuring 70 at an Aurora movie theater on July 20. A judge entered a not guilty plea on his behalf. Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty.

I picked up a beautiful, heavy and sweet local watermelon at my neighborhood Giant Eagle Market District. I still can't believe that this is my normal, everyday, hey-we're-out-of-milk grocery store – it's humongous. But I have to give them props: for being as huge as they are, they do try for a couple of months to really bring in a bunch of locally grown and raised produce. I really like that.
So back home, I was cutting it up and then slicing up all the leftover rinds so that they would break down faster in the compost pile and it hit me. People make pickles out of this stuff. And thankfully it's less for the compost pile to try to digest, which is a good thing this time of year, just ask my husband, who often gets stuck with the job of carting out all the scraps. He's a good man.
So a quick browse around and it's a simpler method than I even thought. For half of a medium watermelon the brine is

Automatic passage handling - PATENTED
Husqvarna Automower® automatically senses narrow passages and finds its way even through the smallest passages. It will vary its route through the passage to avoid unpleasant tracks.
Guide wire - PATENTED
Our patented guide wire helps the mower to find its way back to the charging station, which will reduce searching times especially for complex gardens.
Manages slopes up to 40%
Large coarse-tread wheels provide excellent traction even if the surface is slippery. The mower handles slopes up to 40%.
Weather timer
Adjusts the working time to the lawn's growth rate, meaning that Husqvarna Automower® will maximise its mowing time during periods of strong grass growth. In sunny or dry weather, or late in the season, the mower will spend less time mowing, which decreases wear on lawn and mower.
Flexible charging station placement
Enables flexible placement of the charging station in the garden which simplifies the installation and secures reliable docking every time.
Balance control
For silent and trouble-free operation it automatically detects imbalance in the cutting system. Imbalance could be caused by missing, double mounted or damaged blades.
Spot cutting
Special mode to quickly mow a limited area of longer grass. This is especially useful for areas beneath for example garden furniture, once the furniture is removed. Place the mower in the desired area and choose Spot cutting mode. The mower will mow in tight spirals and when finished resume in automatic mode.
Spiral cutting
Automatic cutting functionality to even out grass height differences. Cutting disc sensors detect whether the mower enters area with higher grass and switches cutting technology to systematic spiral pattern.
Replaceable top covers
Make your mower unique and personal by changing the colour of the top cover. Available in polar white, Husqvarna orange or in the standard colour granite grey.
Easy height adjustment
The cutting height adjustment is easily done from above by turning one large knob.
Robotic lawn mowing is all about reliability. Husqvarna has during 20 years of development refined its mower concept to achieve the highest level of reliability, quality and cutting results, with a minimum of assistance.
Excellent cutting results
Thanks to the free movement pattern of Husqvarna Automower® the lawn is perfectly cut, achieving a beautiful and carpet-like look. The razor-sharp blades cut the grass gently from all directions, helping it to grow strong. Moss growth is effectively prevented.
Thanks to its unique cutting system, Automower® works discreetly and quiet and just when you want.
Unique cutting system
Husqvarna Automower® cuts just a little but frequently, which assures a nice and healthy lawn. It is equipped with sharp razor-like blades made of strong carbon steel mounted on a robust cutting disc system. This provides for efficient operation and extremely low energy consumption.
No emissions
Because it is electrically powered, Automower® produces no harmful emissions.
Theft protection by alarm/PIN code
Different level theft protection for high security. If the mower carried away a high-sounding alarm starts and can only be deactivated with the mower's unique PIN code.
Automatic charging
When Automower® needs more power, it finds its own way back to the charging station.
Low energy consumption
Efficient energy management means low energy consumption, allowing Automower® to operate at a fraction of the cost of conventional lawnmowers.
You decide if you want Automower® to mow the lawn around the clock and 7 days a week.
Lift & Tilt sensors
If Automower® is lifted off the ground or tips over, the cutting automatically shuts off. In addition, the blades are rotating far from the outer edge of the machine. If Automower® meets an obstacle it will stop and redirect itself without causing any damage.
Weather proof
Automower® can be outside around the clock and is designed to function properly and unattended regardless of the weather conditions. Automower® is built to withstand harsh climates without any problems.

For example, I've got a root object exposed in a SOA service, say
Invoice (
Invoice has line items as children).
Sometimes, I need to retrieve its detail line items. I'm thinking to make it lazy loading, because it's a traffic overhead to transfer line items every time
Invoice is required. But in SOA fashion, it seems unlikely. Because all it can expose are
Invoice POCOs, with contain no logic. Thus I cannot attach my lazy loading logic to
Invoice to instruct it to load lines items when needed.
