Welcome to the Corballis.co.uk blog site. It's great to have you :)
There are a few things that you should know up-front:
- This site is running on a Raspberry Pi.
- The dog on the left is called Otto and his farts are pretty awful, even if he does look cute.
- The dog on the right has signed the model release form so can't be named for legal reasons.
- That's about it for now.

This is book number 1 in the A John Lago Thriller series.
Beware the intern! Instead of the corporate killer instinct, the nondescript young person with perfect coffee making skills may have the killer instinct of the corpse-making kind. Twenty-five-year-old John Lago is just such an intern, and this is his last assignment before retiring. Shadow John and absorb his years of knowledge in the assassination business by learing John's rules of engagement and his life story. Help him uncover the correct executive - out of three potential victims - who is to be killed and along the way, discover whether or not you have what it takes to become an elite assassin. This intriguing premise will not only appeal to readers who like covert operation and conflicted protagonits, but also to those who crave career options where perfection in coffee brewing is paramount.— From Adrean Darce Brent
"I have a twisted sense of humor and so does Shane Kuhn, the author of this darkly funny novel of office work and assassination - something like what you might get if Joshua Ferris and Josh Bazell ever collaborated. It's full of misdirection, red herrings, and characters so layered with secret identities and hidden agendas that even they may not know the truth. If you learn nothing else from this exciting, exhilarating debut, take this lesson to heart: If the intern offers to make you coffee, just say 'No, thank you.'"

The Secret To Neutral Buoyancy Underwater For Scuba Divers
There is no denying that Peak Performance Buoyancy control separates the dive paddlers from the pros. When all the big talk is over and the water closes over your head, there is nothing that pulls the whole scuba diving thing together like perfect buoyancy control. The secret is pinpoint buoyancy control, and it all begins with fine-tuning your weighting – that's how much lead you thread on your belt or put into your BCD integrated weights. If you are carrying just the right amount of weight, you will have the smallest amount of BC inflation. That means less drag and more efficient fining. Less BC inflation, also means less buoyancy shift with depth, so you'll make fewer adjustments. There are many tricks but pinpoint buoyancy control is the fundamental skill. Precise control of your buoyancy is what enables you to hover completely motionless and fin through the water, at any depth, without using your hands at all. Its sounds easy, so why isn't it ?
In fact, pinpoint buoyancy control requires getting more than one thing right. The facts that affect your buoyancy besides ballast weight are BC inflation, your trim, exposure suit, depth and breath control. Your ballast weight and your trim are the only two factors that once you've selected them, stay put. All the others are variables, changing during the dive along with time or depth or both. Some you can control, some you cant. Here is our advice for getting perfect buoyancy, so you can enjoy your time underwater. I learnt all this by taking the PADI PEAK PERFORMANCE BUOYANCY COURSE, which teaches precise buoyancy control, streamlining, weight and trim adjustment, equipment configuration options and relaxation techniques.

Sit You Waiting
By Kim Clark
Caitlin Press
112 pages, $16.95
Reviewed by Candace Fertile
Sit You Waiting is the first collection of Vancouver Island writer Kim Clark, whose poems reverberate between the mental processes we are all captured by and the world we inhabit. Topics include illness, love, desire, travel, and poetry, and Clark infuses several of the pages with bold wordplay and wry humour.
Clark uses square brackets, which can be a bit unnerving until it becomes evident that the recurring technique provides a sub-text. For example, in "A Woman Builds a Body, Post Tsunami," the brackets help build the poem:
Sleep [stealthy] leaves
the makeshift bed, the woman
[a subduction].
Many poems use this technique, almost as a signature.
Clark handles a variety of length with ease. In "Lavender," thirty-two words reveal the force of scent-driven memory. In "Three Days on a Train In and Out of Dreaming," a longish poem of thirteen pages with fabulous use of white space, Clark delves into a train trip across Australia, a place of great space itself. Again the poet employs symbols, this time the number sign (#) and the equals sign (=) to organize the sections. The first is #= and the poem moves to #======= and then back to #= while maintaining more than half a page of space on each page as the traveller observes the landscape and contemplates the journey, both physical and mental. In the poem's middle section, "A herd of stones gets up and walks away on wooly legs. / The treelines in motion are not stones or sheep but alphabetic arrangements. . . . " These poems touch magic.
Even a short poem can tell a story, and "Wishing for a Colt" is a clever and funny look at people in a bar hoping for more than a drink. This poem is completely grounded in the concrete. The speaker tries to talk to a "failed cowboy, / dust-diving rodeo rider, / seven broken ribs with a mighty big / hat, and a real small / herd of hay burners / in the interior" while the bar waits for action. It comes.
I am drawn to poems about poetry, and Clark delivers. In "Primate Remuage," the speaker advises readers to "Be the guerrilla / in the midst." The corny pun works beautifully as the directions continue and focus on destabilizing the domestic environment until the final command: "Warm to this poem / deep in your pocket. / Leave crumbs / to find your way out." Overall Clark's poems appear to be about digging deep within the pockets of our minds, then pulling the treasures out into the light. How lovely.

Our architecture lacks centralized middleware layer. We're about to launch our API program with prime focus on B2B use cases. Some of our backend systems expose SOAP services, others are exposed over JMS and in some cases we require direct access to RDBMS.
How do we address such integration problem? From architecture and security perspectives, is it good practice to solve this on the API layer? Or do we need to invest in lightweight ESB technology?
Answer by anant · May 05, 2016 at 08:05 PM
You should ask what you mean with integration? Of course, in the world of APIs, you need to connect services together, but you do that in the context of either delivering an experience API, or in the context of some new internal, perhaps (micro-)services you are building. A good API layer allows you to chain APIs together, as Apigee does. Many of our customers build out experience APIs that call other APIs (a pattern that Netflix popularized).
But in addition, as you build new services, you will probably code calling of other services, rather than depend on some centralized "integration middleware built on a bus architecture, emphasizing connectors".
You need to manage the APIs, not integration.

Don't miss TBG's final series at the WET!
Program B: BEYOND THE BANG GROUP
A program of works by Bang Group members: David Parker, Chelsea Ainsworth & Jessica Smith (HUMA), Louise Benkelman & Tommy Seibold, Ingrid Kepteyn (HEWMAN), and Amber Sloan
The Bang Group will perform the first second-generation version of Bang, choreographer David Parker's breakout duet from 1992 which gave his company its name. Making their debuts, Tommy Seibold and Dylan Baker perform the roles originally created by Parker and Jeffrey Kazin. This comic, erotic and percussive dance had its premiere at DTW's Fresh Tracks in 1992 and was mentored by renowned choreography teacher Bessie Schonberg.
Chelsea Ainsworth and Jessica Smith of HUMA will perform Stand or be Stood, set to "Ne Me Quitte Pas," sung by Nina Simone, and "Mahalageasca," sung by Shantel. The collaboration touches on the idea of dependency vs independency in this ever evolving world. Juilliard graduate Chelsea Ainsworth worked with Johannes Wieland in Germany and Amber Sloan, among others, and is currently a member of The Bang Group and ZviDance. She is also co-founder and Executive Director of Arts on Site, a non-profit organization dedicated to offering affordable studio space and hosting monthly events to encourage community collaboration. Jessica Smith is a graduate of Dance at Purchase College and also studied at the London Contemporary Dance School. An Associate Director of Arts on Site, Jessica is a member of ZviDance, Kizuna Dance and VIM VIGOR.
Louise Benkelman and Tommy Seibold will perform their newest duet, in which they are thrown into a world of alternating discord and harmony, with moments of attempted reorganization in between. Montana native Benkelman graduated magna cum laude with honors from Roger Williams University. She has created works for many organizations, including Judson Memorial Church, Actors Fund Arts Center, and American College Dance Assn. Gala 2016. Louise is currently a member of The Bang Group. Tommy Seibold began dancing at the age of five at his mother's school in Massachusetts, and continued at the Five College Dance Dept. and U/Mass. He is currently a member of The Bang Group and the NYC-based company Heath in Progress.
HEWMAN has choreography by co-founders Jason Collins, Lindsay Harwell, and Ingrid Kapteyn, who will appear in the solo Almost, from the group's upcoming full-evening work. Almost investigates the dynamics of performance: What is it to see yourself? To be seen? To see others? The solo plays with questions through the lens of being a woman, with varying degrees of deference and defiance to the stereotypes we all know. Music by Mary Costa and Edith Piaf. HEWMAN is a collaborative collective co-founded in 2014 by Jason Collins, Lindsay Harwell, and Ingrid Kapteyn, who were all in the same class at Juilliard. They have self-produced three evening-length installations in unconventional venues across NYC, and have appeared before on the Soaking WET series.
AMBER SLOAN will premiere xxxx, an exposé on the audacity of aging in recognition of her 40th birthday this year. The work is a loveletter to her relationship to performing and the exhilaration and anguish that comes with a lifetime on the stage. Part preparation of battle, part celebration of maturity, the solo pries into her fragile ego and the desire to hold onto her dancing prime. Amber Sloan has been a member of The Bang Group since 2002. She was a 2015 Bessie Schonberg Resident at The Yard, was honored with the 2015 Beverly Blossom/Carey Erickson Alumni Dance Award from the U of Illinois/Urbana-Champaign, where she earned her BFA in Dance, and has received space grants from numerous organizations, including Gibney Dance Center, Brooklyn Arts Exchange, and more. Amber teaches dance composition at the Ailey School, serves on the board of Dance Omi International Collective, and co-directs Women in Motion NYC.

NORTH and SOUTH
by Elizabeth Gaskell
No critic rating
Waiting for minimum critic reviews
'Edith!' said Margaret, gently, 'Edith!' But, as Margaret half suspected, Edith had fallen asleep. She lay curled up on the sofa in the back drawing-room in Harley Street, looking very lovely in her white muslin and blue ribbons. If Titania had ever been dressed in white muslin and blue ribbons, and had fallen asleep on a crimson damask sofa in a back drawing-room, Edith might have been taken for her. Margaret was struck afresh by her cousin's beauty. They had grown up together from childhood, and all along Edith had been remarked upon by every one, except Margaret, for her prettiness; but Margaret had never thought about it until the last few days, when the prospect of soon losing her companion seemed to give force to every sweet quality and charm which Edith possessed. They had been talking about wedding dresses, and wedding ceremonies; and Captain Lennox, and what he had told Edith about her future life at Corfu, where his regiment was stationed; and the difficulty of keeping a piano in good tune (a difficulty which Edith seemed to consider as one of the most formidable that could befall her in her married life), and what gowns she should want in the visits to Scotland, which would immediately succeed her marriage; but the whispered tone had latterly become more drowsy; and Margaret, after a pause of a few minutes, found, as she fancied, that in spite of the buzz in the next room, Edith had rolled herself up into a soft ball of muslin and ribbon, and silken curls, and gone off into a peaceful little after-dinner nap. Margaret had been on the point of telling her cousin of some of the plans and visions which she entertained as to her future life in the country parsonage, where her father and mother lived; and where her bright holidays had always been passed, though for the last ten years her aunt Shaw's house had been considered as her home. But in default of a listener, she had to brood over the change in her life silently as heretofore. It was a happy brooding, although tinged with regret at being separated for an indefinite time from her gentle aunt and dear cousin. As she thought of the delight of filling the important post of only daughter in Helstone parsonage, pieces of the conversation out of the next room came upon her ears. Her aunt Shaw was talking to the five or six ladies who had been dining there, and whose husbands were still in the dining-room. They were the familiar acquaintances of the house; neighbours whom Mrs. Shaw called friends, because she happened to dine with them more frequently than with any other people, and because if she or Edith wanted anything from them, or they from her, they did not scruple to make a call at each other's houses before luncheon. These ladies and their husbands were invited, in their capacity of friends, to eat a farewell dinner in honour of Edith's approaching marriage. Edith had rather objected to this arrangement, for Captain Lennox was expected to arrive by a late train this very evening; but, although she was a spoiled child, she was too careless and idle to have a very strong will of her own, and gave way when she found that her mother had absolutely ordered those extra delicacies of the season which are always supposed to be efficacious against immoderate grief at farewell dinners. She contented herself by leaning back in her chair, merely playing with the food on her plate, and looking grave and absent; while all around her were enjoying the mots of Mr. Grey, the gentleman who always took the bottom of the table at Mrs. Shaw's dinner parties, and asked Edith to give them some music in the drawing-room. Mr. Grey was particularly agreeable over this farewell dinner, and the gentlemen staid down stairs longer than usual. It was very well they did—to judge from the fragments of conversation which Margaret overheard.

I will say there were some technical / sound things that were off in the show overall, that the band kind of shrugged off, but I attributed that to there being sound glitches at every single show I've been to at Cowboys Stadium.
Maybe it was just start of tour jitters? I could see his B stage prompter from where I was last night and it didn't seem like he was referencing it. I only heard one "missed a line" moment and it was very short and he was fiddling with his earpiece so maybe it was a sound hitch. He sounded great last night. The Edge was on fire though. His harmonies sounded better then the album (maybe he's a better singer 30 years on?) And he set that guitar on fire.
Current Setlist Sucks and Needs To Be Changed Up Big Time
kyleblonde replied to kitemaster's topic in GeneralI'm going to be a voice of partial dissent here. Yes, I really wish they would have swapped out Pride or Sunday for A Sort of Homecoming, but they're still both great live. They are touchstones at this point. I really wish Heartland had been in the mix too. But, we can't always get what we want. Here's where I disagree with the majority it sounds like, I wasn't initially thrilled with Miss S on the list, but seeing it live it was a highlight of the show. The visuals were extremely moving. It's a beautiful song and Bono let Pavarotti have the opera which (just for me personally maybe, I don't know how many Pavarotti fans intersect with U2 fans) was a moving memory of their collaboration with the greatest tenor. I really loved it live when taken as a whole. My son who was sitting with my mom in seats during the show said at the end it was his favorite song of the show (it was relatable for him as a child seeing the kids in the video and hearing the girl talk about her dreams). That surprised me because along with Exit, I'm sure it's the song he had the least pre-exposure to. In looking through IG this morning and at the local show review, we're not alone in finding it a powerful moment and moving without being maudlin or schmaltzy. And, to be more contrary, I also like Ultraviolet as a ZOOtv touchstone and found the visual style took you into memories of that show. And as a woman who was verbally assaulted twice (by the same mysoginist) at the show, any message that is pro-female is both needed and welcome. I know we all have our wishlist of songs, but on the whole I loved the show.
From Official AT&T twitter AT&T StadiumVerified account @ATTStadium Following More REVISED GA FLOOR PLAN: GA Floor queue line wristbands will be handed out in numerical order at 6am. ENTIRE PARTY MUST BE PRESENT. Y'all....y'all...why does Dallas always have to be SO EXTRA!!! How many times have the rules changed today. I'm so sorry for those of you who are trying to sort through this muddle.
Just saw a post that the lot closest to cowboys way and Collins is open for in and out until 1pm tomorrow.
At&t said their lots won't open until 2:30. You may want to call and check if there will be designated come and go parking for GA check in. Hope all you GA peeps have a great time.
kyleblonde is attending Dallas - U2 The Joshua Tree Tour 2017
I bought mine the day tickets went on regular sale. We had a nightmare parking at Coldplay and I'm not going through that drama again. Same thing with your bags/purses. Be sure you know the rules cause they're crazy and pretty much all the parking is far away if you have to take stuff back to the car. The last show I was at two women threw their purses in the bushes right outside the entrance rather than take them to the car and thought they would still be there when they came out. They weren't.
The price will be $5 higher paying at the lots if there are spaces. Having been to a half dozen events there with various levels of parking preparedness, I'd pay whatever they asked up front. GA people will probably be early but if you're late and Jerry's lots are full the private places within a mile are usually $75+ when you haven't paid in advance.
AT&T Stadium Purse / Bag Policy
kyleblonde replied to allyson2008's topic in Dallas - AT&T StadiumThey don't make exceptions either. Be sure you measure your clutch/wristlet if you're bringing one.
I did the line in 09 too and I've done the line at the AAC in Dallas as well as lines in Chicago, Charlotte, NYC and STL. Dallas is NEVER as organized as other cities about leaving the queue in my experience, nor are people generally as kind. In fact, I've found them to be kind of rude. But I wasn't at the front with the 3am people. But as long as you're with a few people you know so you can leave someone in line you shouldn't have a problem. Additionally Cowboys stadium is always "special" and has it's own processes (like no purses allowed) In 09 they were adamant that people could not show up the night before or "camp out" on the grounds of the stadium. However, I got there at about 10 am in '09 and got in line and got a spot on the outside rail exactly where I wanted because once you get in the walk is far down to the ground level and they're usually letting in 10+ people at a time so you can make up some ground on the way down (they do not let you run, but I saw people running last time). There are porta-potties that are large (handicapped accessible) on the cowboys lots and a walmart and a few food places (I think there's a Cici's across the street from where we queued last time, they were clever and brought pizzas over to the line that they were selling for $8 or something). If you don't have a pass for a close lot the walk back to your car can be FAAAAAAR. Last time I had my husband come by after work to pick up our chairs and cooler because it was almost a 2 miles to the car and back. Hope y'all have a great time.
Is it allowed/weird/dumb to have a GoPro in the RED Zone?
kyleblonde replied to RockHardly05's topic in Red Zone AreaI so endorse this post. My new dislike, boarding on hate, is people who hold up a phone in front of me for extended periods. I usually tolerate a few snaps now and then throughout the show, but good grief - it has become out of control. The last concert I attended - Foo Fighters- I told the gal (very nicely) "hey, why don't you watch the show with your eyes and enjoy the moment, cause it won't again. You will be able to go online and find 1000s of pics from this very concert posted but you are not getting the eye to brain live connection ever again". She paused, thought for a minute and then said "you know what you are right". Put away her camera and proceeded to jam her ass off to the music instead of trying to take pictures. Thanked me after the show actually. Good moment. Oh my Gosh, I wish had been less shy and said something because it was massively annoying. I had flown in from Dallas on a 5 am flight that day and the light was so obnoxious to my tired eyes. But shyness and fear of starting a confrontation as a solo female alone 800 miles from home kept me from being as assertive as I should have been because he filmed the ENTIRE show. I mean the whole damn thing. Holding his phone in the air from the front barrier of the RZ. The. whole. show. Next time I will say something.
If the stadium has any pre paid parking available it will be for sale on Ticketmaster during the regular sale. But that may not be your best plan if you're arriving in the AM for GA because you have to buy a pass for a specific lot and it may not be open in the am when you arrive. Last time when we arrived in the morning for the GA line the stadium had us park in the furthest lot. 14 or 15 I think. I called the stadium about 3 weeks before and they told me what the process was going to be. If you'll be arriving in the evening, check with area shuttle restaurants or buy on a private lot on park whiz closer to the date. It's a walk even from the cowboys lots. The lots are all flat, no garages, so they spread endlessly.
At least the Rangers aren't home that night... But parking there stinks. Sort out your parking early. They will gouge you. We saw no parking night of under $75 for Coldplay for people who were just showing up. The restaurants do offer a good deal for shuttles if they're offering them that night.
Dallas required a presale code for RZ. Sorry for fans in cities that had mess ups.
Boston, MA tickets-is this OK?
kyleblonde replied to NWebb77's topic in Boston - Gillette StadiumOnce the regular sale has started the mods will open up a ticket want/have/ need section for trading tickets or selling them at face value (including fees). That might be an option for you to avoid giving ticketsatan more money. I've used it before and it has worked out fine. I had 2 extra GAs for Dallas at 360 and I offered them up. A Zootopia subscriber and her friend from Austin drove up for the show and gave me face value for the tickets. It was all friendly and good.

Springville "Fiddle Fest"- July 28, 2018
This was our first appearance at this festival in Scott's hometown. The inspiration for the festival comes from the name "Fiddler's Green," the original name for the town. A WPA mural in the Post Office shows the original settlers making music and dancing in what is now the park in the middle of town. We payed tribute to Jud Strunk in our second set, and took time to visit his grave in Maplewood Cemetery while we were in town that day.

Afghan President Ashraf Ghani is paying a two day visit to Pakistan from Thursday on the invitation of Prime Minister Imran Khan.
The Afghan president will be accompanied by a high-level delegation including Ministers, Advisors, Senior Officials and businessmen.
During the visit, President Dr Arif Alvi will have a meeting with President Ghani while Prime Minister Imran Khan will hold delegation-level talks. The wide-ranging talks between the two sides would focus on strengthening bilateral cooperation in diverse areas including political, trade, economic, security, peace and reconciliation, education and people-to-people exchanges.
President Ghani will also travel to Lahore where he will participate in a business forum attended by business representatives from both countries.
This is President Ghani's third visit to Pakistan and follows the recently held first review session of the landmark Afghanistan-Pakistan Action Plan for Peace and Solidarity.
In a statement, the Foreign Office spokesperson said the people of Pakistan and Afghanistan are bound by fraternal ties reinforced by historical, religious, linguistic and cultural affinities. Closer engagement between the leaders will help foster a stronger and multi-faceted relationship between Pakistan and Afghanistan.

Ever came out of a cave and didn't know where you are? Or wondered if you are standing in a desert or just a really long beach? Say no more.
With this nifty little mod you'l get a pop-up message everytime you traverse into a new biome. And since you're not supposed to know where the heck you are while traveling underground, the panel is only activated when you are standing under the clear blue sky. Stormy weather is also OK.
I strongly suggest using the provided Texture Pack, as the original minecraft resolution leaves all assets in a slightly ugly state.
16x Texture
32x Texture
Adding new Biomes
The mod comes with build-in support for Biomes'O'Plenty, Highlands, and ExtrabiomesXL. Adding any new Biomes or native ones I might have missed out just drop a picture in a TexturePack (see the provided 32xPack for reference). To properly function you will need the Name of the Biome. You can get it by pressing F3 ingame. Name your texture EXACTLY like it's shown ingame, with spaces and capital letters and all.
You are free to put the mod in modpacks as long as you will tell me and give me credits.


text: Busquets, Vidal and Rakitic operated as midfielders and Ansu and Jordi Alba gave breadth and depth on the sides. With Messi and Griezmann in the interior corridors, the structure in attack resembled a 1-3-5-2 or 1-3-3-4, depending on the height of Ansu and Jordi Alba. Barcelona was an expansive team from side to side —42.8 meters wide– and exploited its superiority inside with the football ascendant of Messi and the finesse in the first touch of Griezmann, improved by intervening with more continuity in central places. The supports of both, different in the way of doing them, generated the space for the entrances from behind Vidal or Rakitic or the ruptures from the wings of Ansu or Jordi Alba. No movement that was not made with Valverde, although there was a greater insistence on this type of play. The total dominance of the ball, with a possession quota greater than 82%, also specified the Barca's will to have everything under control. Sergi Roberto, Piqué and Umtiti accompanied the medulla and there were no significant cracks that served Granada to articulate the counterattack. Between the three they stole up to nine balls in the center of the field, data that includes their activation in intermediate areas. Barcelona did not split and this is a positive principle for Setién. Their teams tend to run badly backwards … Do not they are made revolutions in just four days, except with Messi in the field, figure that everything happens and will happen in this Barcelona. There was no time for big changes, but for expose some ideas different that must still be perfected. Setién guaranteed that his team would "play well" and anticipated a change of drawing. In both things, with details to clarify, he fulfilled his staging against Granada.The balloon systemIt was the main novelty in Barcelona. Setién ordered a line of three – Sergi Roberto, Piqué and Umtiti – in the offensive construction, which kept both the exit and the situations in the opposite field. During his career, the Cantabrian coach has always used provisions that would include three players, either leaning on three centrals, going down to the middle center or opening one of the interiors. The particular conditions of Sergi Roberto, a midfielder converted to lateral, allow him to employ him in that alternative double role. In the defensive phase, he assumed his usual side function. Pressure and recoveryNaturally, the change in scheme influenced the attack-defense transition. With three players on the last line, Busquets could launch with more courage. The middle center retains its decisive status in this aspect of the game. His reading is usually adequate and could lead the recovery strategy so high in Barcelona —44.2 meters away from your goal-. Busquets was closer to the Granada area than its own, well escorted by Vidal and Rakitic. Barcelona reorganized with four back in contexts in which Granada exceeded the first pressure. He was neat, serious and together, admitting hardly any chances to the set of Diego Martinez, who signed five shots. The best opportunities of the rival derived from errors in the circulation at the exit of Barcelona as it happened in the shot to the stick of Eteki. The goal to zero contained Setién and a proposal that incorporated different nuances in tactical development. Although the revolution is always Messi.

I Like Balloons
From Plank Road Publishingby Teresa Jennings
The old Vaudeville style of this tune is one of the things that makes it so catchy. The orchestration is deliberately modeled after the sounds of the early 1920s, using muted brass and solo saxophones. The melody is completely unison and singable by even your youngest students. As you might expect, there are opportunities during the song for your students to play with balloons. (from Music K-8, Vol. 15, No. 5)

#SteerClearOfFraud - IFED's campaign against ghost brokers
The City of London Police's Insurance Fraud Enforcement Department (IFED) has launched a national awareness campaign to warn motorists about the dangers of buying fake car insurance from fraudsters, also known as 'ghost brokers', who are potentially leaving thousands of unsuspecting victims driving without insurance. It's no joke.
Extent of the problem
From November 2014 – October 2017, Action Fraud, the national fraud and cyber reporting centre, hosted by the City of London Police, received more than 850 reports linked to ghost broking, with reported losses for both individuals and organisations totalling £631,000. On average, each individual victim lost £769.
Of these reports, 417 resulted in action being taken against the offenders by IFED, following their investigations into ghost broking over the past three years, which included a man who set up 133 fake policies, a teenage ghost broker who was sentenced to jail and a man who made £59,000 from ghost broking.

One of the reasons why I love fall so much is that I get to experiment with layering. Although it's tempting to just throw on a coat and run out the door, there are several ways to create an interesting but chic look through the art of layers. It's also a great way to reinvent old pieces in your wardrobe. While you can find plenty of "how to layer" articles on the web, I wanted to share some new ways to layer that aren't often covered. We all know how to throw a turtleneck top under every dress now, but let's look into more unconventional tips and tricks…Five new ways to layer up for fall!
1. Tie a sweater across your chest (or around your shoulder)
November is one of the trickier months to dress for. The mornings and evenings are always unbearably chilly while the afternoons are quite toasty. So, it's the perfect month to kick off light layers. You can start by tying the sleeves of a sweater together over one shoulder and across your chest. This is a great way to balance out asymmetrical pieces – or to give a classic look a bold twist. You can also add a chunky knit by wrapping the sleeves over your shoulders and tying it at the neck. Although this layering trip isn't totally brand new, it's a trick I haven't seen many utilizing yet.
2. Layer a turtleneck under a wider neck sweater
One of the layering tricks I'm looking forward to using this season is doubling up on sweaters. Nothing looks cozier than layering a turtleneck top underneath a crew or funnel neck sweater. This look also works with deep v-neck sweaters. It's a great way to mix prints and patterns or play with proportions.
Repost from Not Jess Fash
3. Layer a turtleneck under a button down shirt
To keep yourself warm with an oversized button down shirt, layer a turtleneck knit top underneath. It isn't too bulky and looks great with jeans or a maxi skirt. You can then build on the layers with a longline coat and a scarf. Basically, you can wear a turtleneck under anything from shirt dresses to dungaree-like jumpsuits and anything else in between.
4. Layer a skirt over a dress of the same length
I know sweater dresses are huge during this time of the year, so if you get bored of the same old sweater dress and over the knee boots look, layer a mini skirt over it. I love this look with button down skirts – just remember keep a few buttons undone so the layers become more visible. A-line mini skirts with slits are also another perfect option.
5. Layer a skirt or dress over pants
Finally, layer a skirt or a dress over pants for a change. I find that this look works best if you're wearing skinny jeans or leather pants. I always start with the jeans an ill-fitting pair can ruin the whole look. I say wear skinny pants because you want it to look sleek – not bulky, bundled, or lumpy. Then, layer a flowy dress over like a wrap dress, asymmetrical silhouette, or a shirt dress. I don't think this look goes too well with bodycon dresses.

So what are some of the ways you're layering up this fall? I'd love to know! (Click HERE)
Thank you so much for reading. And as always, have a beautiful day! XOXO, Candy

*Disability Liability policies are not yet supported
Workers' compensation insurance is protection for people who get hurt or become ill during the course of their employment. It can be the result of an accident — like hurting their back in a fall or being burned by a hazardous chemical. It can also be the result of repeated exposure to something harmful during work, like losing hearing due to persistent loud noises or rotator cuff damage from performing the same arm motion over and over. Workers' compensation insurance offers five basic benefits:
Worker's Comp 101
Workers' compensation insurance provides payments regardless of who is at fault for work related injuries. The compromise of workers' compensation means that, in exchange for this "no fault" environment, employees generally waive their right to litigation. In these situations, workers' compensation helps ensure businesses won't be financially crippled by costly disputes, but can still address and correct the issue at hand. Providing workers' compensation does not always guarantee an employee won't sue for injuries sustained on the job, however, because there are specific instances that permit a worker bringing his or her case to court.
Workers' comp insurance for the general public is state mandated, meaning that every state has its own worker's compensation laws and programs for this coverage. Check what is the required law regulations for your specific area by visiting the U.S. Department of Labor's State Workers' Compensation Officials and clicking through to your state's site.
Importantly, most states explicitly prohibit employers from firing workers who plan to make a workers' compensation claim, and employers cannot tell workers not to file. Employers who use these types of intimidation tactics typically are trying to protect their reputation or keep their insurance costs from rising, but this should strictly be avoided.
Have a broker or agent lead you through the process. An experienced agent, like an AmTrust Financial-appointed agent, can walk you through the buying process, and help you understand the various laws, class codes and underwriting involved with workers' compensation insurance. The right agent can help relay your risk management strategy to insurers to help you get the best quote — and guide you through the claims process if something goes wrong.
While workers' compensation is no-fault, certain claims generally are not covered, including when:
Costs vary widely from state to state. Workers' comp costs between $0.75 in Texas to $2.74 in Alaska per $100 in employee wages, according to the National Academy of Social Insurance. Cost is also dependent on the type of work an employee does. The riskier the work, the more workers' compensation insurance will cost. A clerical worker will certainly have a lower risk profile than a construction worker. In 2018, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported workers' compensation for sales and office professionals cost $0.22 per hour or 0.9 percent of overall compensation — while coverage for natural resources, construction and maintenance jobs cost $1.16 per hour, or 3.2 percent of overall compensation. The cost is often based on the classification by the National Council on Compensation Insurance (NCCI), an independent council that identified 700 "class codes" representing the risks of different job types.
With an "A" (Excellent) rating by A. M. Best, AmTrust always seeks to deliver superior service at a rate that's both fair and affordable. With a variety of tools and resources at our disposal, we can provide you with a quote for small business worker's comp insurance quickly and easily. We can even write your policy for completely new ventures that fit emerging demands in the market. AmTrust and our agents recognize the importance of flexibility in today's business environment. We work close with the small and mid-sized businesses we insure to design the specific packages they need to comply and succeed. Additionally, we offer advanced reporting, monitoring and audit options so you can always see how your AmTrust policy is performing for you. To get the best policy, it matters which insurance company you choose for your workers' comp – consider these five factors you should look for in your workers' comp carrier.

The 6 Best 360-Degree Cameras of 2019
The first generation of 360-degree cameras were essentially expensive toys with limited applications. Now that the technology has matured, things are starting to get interesting.
The latest generation of omnidirectional video cameras have better sensors, and higher resolutions. There's even video stabilization that results in surprisingly usable footage. Plus you can do things that simply aren't possible with a regular camera.
But which one is right for you? Here are the best 360-degree cameras available right now.
Why Should You Buy a 360-Degree Camera?
Cameras that can shoot 360-degree footage have at least two lenses; one at the front, and one at the back. These lenses capture wide-angle video. The camera stitches the footage together to create a single 360-degree image.
This has its benefits. There's no need to frame your shots since you're capturing everything around you. This is known as overcapture. You can then edit the footage down later to create your video.
Most 360-degree cameras don't feature a live preview screen, although they'll often provide this feature through a companion smartphone app. This has allowed manufacturers to design compact and innovative cameras. These devices can shoot video and still photographs.
Most systems will allow you to export regular videos in 16:9 or square format for sharing on the web. Many even give you the 360-degree video files for immersive viewing in virtual reality. Aside from their technical benefits, 360-degree cameras are a lot of fun to play with too.
1. Insta360 One X
Insta360 One X Insta360 One X Buy Now On Amazon $799.00
The Insta360 One X is one of the most popular cameras of its kind and for good reason. It's the successor to the Insta360 One, and it improves on its predecessor in almost every way. The One X can shoot 5.7K video at 30fps, or 4K video at 50fps (the PAL standard) and 18MP stills.
The Insta360 One X does a stellar job of stabilizing wobbly video too. This is why so many turn to the One X for their 360-degree action camera needs. If you want to maximize image potential, you can shoot LOG video and RAW images.
There's a capable HDR mode, and all of the camera functions can be manually controlled using the companion app. That's the same app you'll be editing and exporting videos with, and it's one of the most intuative on the market.
You can use the app to grab shareable video from your overcapture footage. This includes stabalized hyper-lapse films where you can slow down and speed up footage for near professional-level results. If there's one drawback to the Insta360 One X, it's the 40 minutes of shooting you'll get on a single charge.
Otherwise, it's an impressive package, with a great mobile companion app, at a fair price. You can find out more about the camera in our review of the Insta360 One X.
2. Insta360 EVO
The Insta360 EVO is an action camera with a unique hinged design. The hinge gives you the flexability to shoot 180-degree video in stereoscopic 3D, or full 360-degree video in 2D. The EVO's capabilities largely mirror the One X, with 5.7K video at 30fps, 4K video at 50fps, and 18MP still images.
The EVO also uses the same smooth stabilization seen in the One X. There's even RAW photography and LOG video capabilities too. If the One X is an action camera, the EVO is a camera for creating videos to be viewed in VR. The 180-degree 3D footage will really pop on a VR headset compared to flat 360-degree footage.
The One X has the edge if you're going to be sharing your footage in standard size formats. However, if you're going all-in on VR, then the 3D capabilities of the EVO are hard to beat.
3. Ricoh Theta Z1
Ricoh Theta Z1 Ricoh Theta Z1 Buy Now On Amazon $1,039.00
What makes the Ricoh Theta Z1 unique is that it contains the largest sensor of any consumer 360-degree camera. The one-inch sensor, combined with Ricoh's quality optics, delivers the best image quality outside of professional devices.
That larger sensor will help a lot when it comes to low light performance, particularly night shooting. More sensor space means better color reproduction, and less detail lost in the shadows and highlights. Dynamic range is much improved over standard 1/2.3-inch sensors too. This leads to video and stills coming looking better than footage from many regular action cameras.
Despite the high image quality, the Z1 only outputs 4K video at 30 frames per second, with an option for 2K capture at the same framerate. Still images are captured at 23MP resolution.
The Theta+ app is a capable mobile companion for overcapture and sharing purposes. You could describe the Theta Z1 as a prosumer camera. You might find it worth almost double the price of the Insta 360 One X if the sensor benefits are a top priority for you.
4. GoPro Fusion
GoPro Fusion GoPro Fusion Buy Now On Amazon $289.00
The GoPro Fusion is the company's first 360-degree camera. GoPro is a respected name in the consumer camera space, and the Fusion doesn't disappoint offering 5.8K at 24fps, 5.2K at 30fps, and 3K video at 60fps.
The Fusion is fitted with a decent set of lenses, which means video quality is good, particularly considering the small sensor size. Like GoPro's HERO cameras, the Fusion makes use of impressive stabilization techniques to smooth out bumps without the need for a gimbal.
Still image size is a little low at 18 megapixels, but it's par for the course compared to the rest of the market. The camera is also waterproof, with a rubbery outer case and support for GoPro's mounting system. This makes it easy to add the Fusion to your setup if you already own a GoPro camera.
Unfortunately, the GoPro Fusion desktop app has been the subject of critisism, with users noting that it's very slow to stitch and process footage. Despite this, the GoPro Fusion is still a compelling choice, especially for its underwater capabilites.
5. Rylo 360
Rylo 360 Rylo 360 Buy Now On Amazon $225.00
With 5.8K video at 24fps and 4K at 30fps, the Rylo 360 matches GoPro's impressive resolution and image quality. Also up to standard is the cinematic stabilization. These features are ideal, as the Rylo 360 has been designed as an action camera.
The companion app is well regarded for its intuitive and user-friendly design. You can use it to create interesting videos from overcapture by reframing your footage, playing around with the playback speed, and performing color corrections before exporting to your device.
One thing worth noting is that the companion app cannot live preview what the Rylo 360 is recording. This is less of an issue with 360-degree video since overcapture means you can reframe in post-production. However, it is worth noting since similar cameras do offer a live preview.
6. Garmin VIRB 360
Garmin VIRB 360 Garmin VIRB 360 Buy Now On Amazon $919.99
The Garmin VIRB 360 is another rugged 360-degree action camera. It has a waterproof design with replaceable lenses; perfect for any mishaps you may have along the way. The VIRB 360 shoots 5.7K video at 30fps, with 4K spherical stabilization and 360-degree audio.
What makes the VIRB 360 stand out is its array of sensors. These include a built-in barometer, accelerometer, gyroscope, and GPS sensor. With the additional data captured you can place informational overlays onto your footage, like speed or position on a map.
The VIRB 360 is pricey compared to some of these other options, and the software is a bit of a weak point according to many reviewers. Those issues aside, the best reason to go for Garmin's offering is for the array of sensors that allow you to capture more than just video and audio.
The Best 360-Degree Camera for You
If the marketing materials for these cameras are to be believed, the only reason to buy a 360-degree camera is for high-octane activites. That isn't the case. You don't need to jump off a building to make good use of these cameras.
They make perfect travel companions since they'll see more of your holiday than you will. They're also popular with photographers looking to experiment with new ways of shooting stills and video.
Once you've chosen the right 360-degree camera for you, you'll want to start shooting.

I even made him a pouch (per his request) that attached to the belt to hold his wallet, keys, etc. This costume like all my other costumes was made using an altered commercial pattern.

Thanks to the fact that Motorola build on top of Android, rather than changing it pretty much entirely like Samsung and HTC try their best to, Motorola devices are often guaranteed rather speedy updated to the latest version of Android. Not to take anything away from Motorola, but using stock Android as they do pretty much guarantees a speedy turnaround. Having said that, the Moto G and Moto E have had to wait a little longer. Both the first-generation and second-generation Moto G have had their updates to Android 5.0.2 Lollipop, but the Moto E continues to wait.
Said wait might be coming to an end sooner rather than later though, as users are reporting that they've been invited to take part in a soak test for Android 5.0.2 on the Moto E. XDA Member Rohitagni, who is apparently located in Kolkata, has received the below invitation from Motorola to take part in a soak test for a "new software release", which means that Lollipop or Android 5.0.2 weren't specifically named. Still, considering Motorola has done pretty much everything they can with Android 4.4 KitKat, what else could it be?
After some pretty smooth updates on the Moto X 2014 as well as both Moto G generations, we should expect another smooth update to Lollipop here from Motorola. This update would also make the Moto E one of the first low-end devices to be updated to Android 5.0 Lollipop, so it'll be interesting to see how the hardware handles the latest version of Android. The dual-core Snapdragon 200 at the heart of the Moto E isn't exactly a powerhouse here, so we'll have to see if the new version of Android has any adverse affects on the overall performance of this snappy little low-end device. The Moto X 2013 has been promised to receive new features from the Moto X 2014, so long as they're not dependant on hardware, so hopefully the Moto E learns some new tricks as well.

The holidays may be over but unfortunately, the cold and flu season is not! It's hard enough returning to work, starting your resolutions, and getting back into the swing of things when you don't feel ill! It's almost impossible to be productive when you are down and out with a head cold and sore throat! Instead of fighting through the pain or relying on expensive and sometimes addictive medications to alleviate your symptoms, try these natural remedies! These drinks work in different ways to help support your body in fighting off the symptoms that make sleeping, breathing, and daily living so difficult during a bout of cold or flu.
The power of warm drinks
Warm drinks themselves do wonders for congestion because of their ability to lightly steam your sinuses. Sipping a warm beverage 3-4 times a day helps to soften and loosen mucus, soothe your membranes, and allow you to breathe easier and less painfully. Making an effort to consistently drink also helps hydrate your body, relieve the strain on your immune system, and flush out the sickness. Here are some helpful teas, drinks, and broths to be using and a little bit about why they are so helpful.
Echinacea Tea
The Native American herb Echinacea is one of the most popular medicinal plants used today. It contains active substances that work to support your immune system to shrink the duration of the cold. In one particular study, people with early symptoms of cold and flu who drank Echinacea tea every day for five days felt better sooner than those who didn't (1).The plant further helps by relieving pain, reducing inflammation, lowering fevers, and can even help your body fight viruses! There are some studies that show that it helps reduce the outbreaks of those pesky viral cold sores, so this is a great drink to include if you are prone to them (2)!
Marshmallow Tea
Not the fluffy stuff you put on s'mores, marshmallow root tea (made with the roots and leaves of the marshmallow plant) can help treat a sore throat. Marshmallow is a mucilage, which means it helps to coat dry and irritated membranes to alleviate throat pain. Sipping the tea can be a delicious and soothing option for your throat and stomach. Marshmallow in tincture form is also a great delivery method to relieve sore throats and a dry cough.
Ginger is a powerful plant with antibacterial, antiviral, antioxidant and pain relieving properties. Used by many, especially expecting mothers to treat nausea and upset stomach this medicinal root works wonders while being very gentle. Ginger also stimulates the opening of nasal passages for easier breathing and acts as a cough suppressor. Ginger also has a great flavor so it's a great thing to add to soups, teas, wassails, and other foods when you're feeling under the weather!
Bone Broth
Broths made from simmering animal bones (for hours to days) are rich in nutrients found in marrow namely amino acids, calcium, magnesium, and other helpful nutrients to help give your body a boost when you're sick. Bone broth is especially high in the amino acid cysteine which helps your body breakdown mucus. The combination of hydration, electrolytes, and protein found in bone broths perfectly support your immune system when you're sick.
Honey and Lemon
This combination is both delicious, but nutrient packed to help your body fight off sicknesses. Lemon juice is very high in vitamin C, a nutrient that helps shorten the duration of a cold. Lemon juice also helps support your immune system by fighting inflammation and acts as an antiseptic to fight off the cold virus directly! Inflamed, irritated membranes will also benefit from a dose of honey. Honey is one of the best inflammation fighters and has been used for healing for many years. There are also infection-fighting enzymes found within honey that further work against the cold virus. No wonder drinking a combination of these two foods speeds up recovery when you're sick!
Don't worry next time you feel that dreaded tickle in your throat! Use these remedies as soon as your first symptoms arise and you will be back to work (and play!) before you know it! To get you started, try these throat-soothing recipes below!

Satisfied with the purchase though this was significantly bigger than the quest. Added size is worth it due to the additional specs (i.e. rain cover, bigger sun shade, bigger seat, wheels with suspension) that are not in the quest. Our little one was…Read more

"Smooth ride"
This stroller is definitely easier to steer than the average umbrella stroller due to the suspension in all four wheels. It's also heavier as a result of that and the frame is bulkier. One thing to note is that it does not come with a carrying strap as…Read more

BBQ, pan-fried meat linked to kidney cancer: Broiled, grilled meat carcinogens | Examiner.com
dd BBQ, grilled meat, broiled and pan-fried meat to the list of carcinogens reported the Washington Post on Nov. 9. In October, the World Health Organization said processed meats--hot dogs, bacon, ham, lunch meat--are as carcinogenic as cigarettes and asbestos. Now a National Institutes of Health study found that BBQ and pan-fried meat are linked to kidney cancer. WHO has already connected all red meat to bowel cancer and the list of reasons not to eat red meat just keeps getting longer, and the way you prepare meat is just as dangerous.

Bumeràn Chavez: the Truth about Venezuela?
Last February the agents of the Venezuelan security service arrested the mayor of Caracas, Antonio Ledezma, who is now detained in a military jail on charges of attempting a coup to overthrow President Maduro. It is not the first time that a member of the opposition is arrested, but what happened a few months ago represents an escalation in the regime's repression, because Ledezma is an elected mayor.
The President has ordered the repression of all his political opponents. Many have been barred from the parliament or even exiled. Ordinary citizens who oppose the left-wing regime are barred from jobs in the public sector and from government benefits. Demonstrations, so far, have ended with the death of many protesters, including a number of students.

Millennial love of the term "betch" – a softened mutation of "bitch" – is so rampant that a pair of entertainment companies are warring over its use in Brooklyn federal court.
Betches.com, a popular online magazine founded by a trio of Roslyn High School graduates, is suing a Dreamworks-owned video production company for appropriating the term "betch," court papers state.
An irreverent satire site that focuses on pop culture dramas, dating advice and fashion, betches.com boasts millions of young social media followers and even published a New York Times bestselling book under its umbrella brand.
Flush with success, the company is taking legal aim at AwsomenessTV, Inc., a video production and distribution business they claim is riding the "betch" wave to unearned popularity.
The company began "furnishing a series of comedic episodes which repeatedly and flagrantly use the infringing term 'betch' in close conjunction with the title of each of its episodes with the object of confusing consumers and free-riding on the efforts of Plaintiff…," the suit states.
Betches brass point to specific episode titles in making their claims, including "Betch: A Sketch Show" and "Ariana Grande is Good at Everything – Betch."
"Defendant intends to dilute the distinctive quality of Betches'
family of trademarks and unfairly reap where it has not sown," the suit states.
Dreamworks apparently rebuffed initial demands that they curb usage of the term and argued that "'betch and 'betch!' are slang terms in colloquial American English..," the suit states.
In keeping with their moniker, betches.com snarkily deride their adversary in court papers as "substandard" and that their legion of dedicated fans might become "confused" by their rival's use of the term.
On its web site, Betches boasts: "We're the website, the Instagram, the store, the books, the everything that young females go to experience the thoughts that run through their heads, but are too afraid or uncomfortable, to say out loud."
The suit seeks at least $500,000 in damages and a court injunction prohibiting the defendant's use of "betch."

Unknown post type
Matt Murdock in Daredevil (1×08) "Shadows in the Glass"
Did you blow up those buildings? Shoot those cops? You really even need to ask that? Yeah, I think I do.
Greetings! For those of you who don't know me, I'm Stef, and I make gifsets over here, mostly for Agents of SHIELD. What you might not know is that I'm actually studying graphic design, and I'm addicted to enamel pins. Because of this, I have designed a set of enamel pins based around Marvel Television Shows, including both Marvel Netflix and Agents of SHIELD.
However, designing pins is a costly process and many designers use Kickstarter to set up their pins and to fund them. In order to afford the manufacturing costs of these and to sell them, I need to raise the money first! If you're interested and would like to buy a pin, you can go here and find information about how to pledge money over on Kickstarter in order to get a pin (or multiple pins!) of your favorite characters. Any amount counts, and with luck and success, I hope to do more designs and pins like this in the future. So please, if you want more merchandise for these severely under-appreciated shows or if you just have interest in supporting independent artists, either pledge if you're able to or simply give this post a reblog so that more people can see it!
