- The dollar remains under pressure due to weak US retail sales and rising optimism on Brexit and the trade war
- Brexit negotiations remain tense and we should expect a higher than usual noise-to-signal ratio at this stage
- China said its goal is to stop the trade war and remove all tariffs
- US has a full data schedule; we remain constructive on the US economic outlook
- UK reported September retail sales; Sweden's unemployment rate hit a 4-year high of 7.4%
- Australia reported solid September jobs; Singapore reported weak September trade
The dollar is broadly weaker against the majors on market optimism regarding Brexit and the trade war. Sterling and Aussie are outperforming, while yen and Swissie are underperforming. EM currencies are broadly firmer. ZAR and CZK are outperforming, while TRY and KRW are underperforming. MSCI Asia Pacific was up 0.2% on the day, with the Nikkei falling 0.1%. MSCI EM is up 0.6% so far today, with the Shanghai Composite falling 0.1%. Euro Stoxx 600 is up 0.7% near midday, while US futures are pointing to a higher open. 10-year UST yields are up 5 bp at 1.79%, while the 3-month to 10-year spread has risen 7 bp and stands at +16 bp. Commodity prices are mostly lower, with Brent oil down 0.1%, copper up 0.6%, and gold down 0.3%.
After a strong start yesterday, the dollar came under pressure due to weak US retail sales and rising Brexit optimism. It remains under pressure today. DXY is trading at its lowest level since August 26 and is on track to test the August 23 low near 97.169 and then the August 9 low near 97.033. Break of those levels would set up an even deeper correction towards the June 25 low near 95.843. The 200-day moving average near 97.377 is fast approaching.
Brexit negotiations remain tense and we should expect a higher than usual noise-to-signal ratio at this stage. Sterling has surged after EC President Juncker tweeted: "Where there is a will, there is a #deal." This was followed by comments from the DUP saying there is no change in their position, which tempered some of the optimism. The DUP is objecting on the basis the proposed customs arrangement across the Irish Sea, the mechanics of Stormont's consent, and now the lack of clarity over VAT. Although the math gets very complicated without the support of the DUP, it seems we are closer than ever to the end of this saga. Sterling is trading at the highest level since May 13 and is on track to test the May 6 high near $1.3185. After that is the March 13 high near $1.3380.
China said its goal is to stop the trade war and remove all tariffs. According to the Ministry of Commerce, China is working on the text of the phase 1 deal and discussing the next phase of talks. It added that trade teams remain in close communication and made substantial progress at the last round of talks. Elsewhere, local press reported that regulators are looking to enact more measures towards liberalizing inbound foreign investment, including removing restrictions on businesses. The new measures should impact the financial sector and the automobile industry, while also urging the protection of overseas investors and prohibiting forced technology transfers.
US has a full data schedule. September housing starts and building permits will be reported, which are expected fall -3.2% m/m and -5.3% m/m, respectively. Weekly jobless claims will be reported for the BLS survey week that includes the twelfth of the month and are expected at 215k. Philly Fed manufacturing survey for October will be reported and is expected at 7.6 vs. 12.0 in September. Lastly, September IP is expected to fall -0.2% m/m vs. +0.6% in August.
We remain constructive on the US economic outlook. Please see our piece "What is the US Yield Curve Telling Us?" for an in-depth look at the US. We have one last thought on yesterday's retail sales data. Yes, the m/m readings don't look so good, but the y/y readings tell a better story. Headline sales rose 4.1% y/y, down slightly from this year's peak of 4.4% in August. Ex-autos rose 3.7% y/y, steady from August and the highest since April. Lastly, the control group rose 4.8% y/y, down slightly from this year's peak of 5.2% in August. Bottom line: consumption is still growing solidly.
Canada reports August manufacturing sales. Yesterday, headline CPI came in a couple ticks lower than expected at 1.9% y/y, while common core came in a tick higher than expected at 1.9% y/y. Data have been coming in firm, leading markets to push out BOC easing expectations. WIRP suggests only 3% odds of a cut October 30 and 9% for December 4, rising to only 17% in Q1 2020. Relatively high carry has helped CAD to outperform during this recent bout of USD weakness, with USD/CAD breaking below support near 1.32 yesterday. The next key level is 1.3155 and a break below that would set up a test of the July low near 1.3015.
UK reported September retail sales. Headline sales were flat mm vs. -0.2% expected while ex-auto fuel rose 0.2% m/m vs. -0.1% expected. Up until now, September data so far had been coming on the soft side as Brexit uncertainty continues to take a toll on the economy. WIRP suggests 9% odds of a cut November 7 and 18% for December 19, both down from earlier this week. If our base case of another delay until early 2020 comes true, then the BOE is likely to remain on hold for the rest of this year. Odds of a cut rise as we move through H1 2020, with WIRP putting the odds of a cut by mid-year around 40%. That still seems reasonable to us.
The situation in Turkey continues to develop negatively. There seems to be bi-partisan support in the US for enacting harsher measures against Turkey, despite sanctions already imposed by President Trump. Meanwhile, Vice President Pence and Secretary of State Pompeo are heading to Ankara on a mission to get Erdogan to back down from the military incursion in Syria. Despite all the bad news, the lira has been stable over the last three sessions as regulators step up efforts to constrain trading and state banks continue to support the currency by selling dollars.
Sweden's unemployment rate hit a 4-year high of 7.4%, which may very well be the final nail in the coffin of the Riksbank's plan to hike rates again. While markets have already been moving in this direction, the bank's official communication remains far too hawkish given the state of the Swedish economy. From the September meeting statement: "the interest rate is expected to be raised towards the end of the year or at the beginning of next year." Tellingly, WIRP suggests no hike at all, with 5% odds of a cut October 24 and 19% for December 19.
Australia reported solid September jobs data. Total jobs rose 14.7k vs. 15.0k expected, and the breakdown was favorable as full-time jobs rose 26.2k while part-time jobs fell -11.4k. Unemployment fell a tick to 5.2%. We know the RBA puts a lot of weight on labor market conditions in its reaction function. It just cut rates 25 bp to 0.75% this month and so it is likely to stand pat at its November 5 meeting. WIRP suggests 20% odds of a cut then, rising to 51% December 3 and nearly 70% February 4.
Singapore reported September trade data. NODX contracted -8.1% y/y vs. -7.2% expected, while electronics exports contracted -24.8% y/y vs. -23.0% expected. The MAS just eased policy this week by adjusting the slope of its S$NEER trading band and left the door open for further easing. Next policy meeting is in April, but the MAS has eased intra-meeting in the past if conditions warrant.

Wolves and Boys. (A Jacob Black Love Story)
First Jacob story. So be nice and please comment.
Chapter 1
My Situation
I dont know how he could have said that, we practically raised together. There were some things I didn't know and somethings he didn't know, but to say that I didnt know anything would be a lie.
He walked away from me, his fists clenched.
"Jacob." I took a step forward, trying to reason with him.
He turned around looking at me angrily.
"Dont." he pointed a finger at me. "Get away from me. Go away. Go back to North Dakota."
He turned back around.
I stared after him. Go back to North Dakota? How could I? My family was murdered, I had no other place to go, but here.
I fumbled with my dark hair. This was my home now. I couldn't just leave. Billy had taught me so much about my...situation.
The wind played with my dark black fur as I raced through the woods with ease. Yes, this was my situation. I didnt really want it, and as most people might think that its amazing to be a wolf, its kind of a blessing/curse.
But for now, I thought of it as a blessing.
It felt good to be in this form. To escape the world and live in the darkness of the night...to forget everything and everyone.
The only problem was, I wasn't the only wolf out here. There were many others as well. A pack of them to be more exact.
I steered clear of them.
All of them were in their wolf form as well. Great. So much for the peace and quiet. If these wolves could talk, the whole forest would be able to hear them. They talked so loud.
I shook my head and kept running.
I looked in the mirror as I got dressed. There was nothing like a midnight run to clear someones head.
I brushed my long dark hair and then ran my fingers through it.
I heard a knock on my door. I quickly ran towards the door and opened it to find Jacob standing there shirtless.
His face read that he clearly did not want to be here.
"Look, uh, I just came by to tell you that there is another animal in the woods. So stay out of there, unless you want to get yourself killed. I wont be there if you do." he frowned.
"What kind of animal?" I asked innocently.
Maybe a little too innocently.
Had they been closer than I thought, when I ran through the forest?
"Just dont worry about it. Its big and can kill you, thats all you need to know." he said annoyed.
"Well thanks for the warning. Was that all?" I asked him trying to read the expressions on his face.
"One more thing. I'm sorry for those things I said to you earlier today." he said still not looking at me.
He didnt sound sorry. But that was Jacob for you.
"I have been having a real messed up week." he looked at me finally.
"Yea me too." I agreed with him.

Drivers LED Programmable DLC-W
Programmable DLC-W
Constant current drivers for led modules. Independent type and class II. Fully encapsulated for a better insulation and thermal performance.
They provide very high efficiency and power factor in a wide range of operation, and comply with the most demanding security, performance, and EMC standards. ENEC certification.
They offer the possibility of programming a lot of parameters of operation and dimming (output current and/or power output, CLO, NTC module protection, dimming settings, etc), in a quick and simple manner through a wireless system with the driver off.
The range is composed of three main families:
- Drivers with programming system "WProg", with all the features except DALI.
- Drivers with programming system "WProg AOL", with all performance settings, but three only dimming systems: astronomical AST, "on referenced time" ORT, and Line control LC. In this way the cable for dimming is removed, simplifying the handling and connection of the unit.
- Drivers with programming system "WProg+", including DALI.

Born 16 June 1910, in Llwyngwinau House, Tregaron, third of the six children of David and Elizabeth Davies. The family kept a butcher's shop in Tregaron at the time, but when she was about a year old they moved to farm Cefngwyddil in the parish of Llanbadarn Odwyn, and in 1919 to farm Pontargamddwr in the parish of Caron-is-clawdd. She was educated at Castell Fflemish elementary school from 1915 to 1923 when she went to Tregaron county school. In 1929 she went to U.C.W., Aberystwyth, and took her finals in history and Latin in June 1932, but graduated in 1933.
She was for a period on the staff of Cardiff city library before joining the B.B.C. in 1935 as secretary to Sam Jones . She assisted him in establishing the very fine tradition of Welsh radio broadcasting at Bangor. In 1946 she left the B.B.C. and returned to Cardiganshire as warden of the aelwydydd (youth clubs) of Urdd Gobaith Cymru in Tregaron and Pontrhydfendigaid. The following year she was appointed secretary of the Urdd's monetary appeal, a year later head of the appeals department, and in 1949 head of the movement's programmes and planning department. A few months later she returned to Bangor as producer of radio talks, and in 1955 moved to the B.B.C. headquarters in Cardiff to the world of radio and later television.
In Cardiff she was responsible for editing the literary radio programme Llafar, and was the first producer (and later, editor) of the television magazine programme Heddiw, the first television programme to discuss national and international matters in Welsh. In 1965 this programme won the Western Mail and Echo prize for the best programme of the year in Welsh. She visited the Welsh colony in Patagonia and produced the first film of that country ever seen on television. She was responsible for a large number of programmes such as 'Nant dialedd', 'Shepherd's calendar', 'Bugail Cwm Prysor' and 'Prynhawn o Fai'. In 1969 she retired from the B.B.C., returned to Tregaron where she bought a house called 'Monarch'; she enjoyed only a few months' health there and died aged 59 in Singleton hospital, Swansea, on 7 May 1970. She was buried in the graveyard of Bwlchgwynt chapel, Tregaron, on May 11.

Predicting a Stock's Future Priceby Thomas Smith
Some companies have a history of producing relatively steady, predictable earnings growth. Other companies have a history of producing earnings in a much more erratic fashion. Focusing on the steady growers takes much of the inherent unknown out of the prediction process and leads to a less volatile investment outcome. Predicting a stock's future price can be a simple function of two variables - its future earnings per share and its future price-to-earnings ratio (P/E ratio). Multiply the projected P/E ratio by the projected EPS and you get your projected price per share.

|Crystal Palace Kaya, Funky Chunky Mitts by Lindsey Williard
I needed a quick knit for a gift to someone at C#1's school who has been very helpful and supportive. I knit these quickly, since I didn't make a thumb, but then I realized the buttonhole thumb opening needed some reinforcing. So they sat. They're still here. I have to photograph an accompanying pair of mittens that will go to another wonderful person. Those are complete, but in need of photos.
Construction is over for now. I have a bed, new windows, a nicely painted room and now 2 clean and reorganized rooms. Yay! The dust is awful, but both of the C's helped out by dusting.

Apple Stock Prediction (NASDAQ: AAPL): Apple's iPad Sales Is Getting A Boost From Adobe
Apple Stock Prediction
The article was written by Motek Moyen Research Seeking Alpha's #1 Writer on Long Ideas and #2 in Technology – Senior Analyst at I Know First.
- Adobe is working on releasing a full version of Photoshop for the iPad next year.
- This should help boost sales of Apple's iPad and iPad Pro products. The iPad business is still a massive $4.74 billion/quarter for Apple.
- The introduction of iPad Pro has helped Apple remain the leader in tablet sales. Adobe making the iPad more useful is very important development.
- Aside from increased iPad hardware sales, Apple can profit from its 30%/15% cut from the $9.99/month subscription fee of Adobe Photoshop.
- The one-year algorithmic market trend forecast for AAPL is very bullish. This stock still deserves a buy.
My last buy endorsement for Apple (AAPL) was last May 14. AAPL has since shot up from less than $189 to more than $216. I am still going to rate AAPL as a buy. This stock has more upside potential. Aside from the imminent release of new iPhones, Mac Minis, and MacBooks this Q4, Apple also has a future tailwind from Adobe's (ADBE) decision to release a full version of Photoshop for the iPad next year.
Going forward, Adobe's move to upgrade its x86 software products to run on iOS and ARM-based processors outlines improved future iPad sales. Creative professionals who switched to the Surface Pro to run touchscreen-friendly Photoshop (and other Adobe software products) will likely buy the best and most expensive iPad Pro model after Adobe releases a full version of Photoshop for it.
Apple could sell 1 to 3 million more iPad Pros annually after Adobe releases a native iPad/iOS versions of Photoshop (and other legacy x86 Creative Cloud design software programs). At an average selling price of $900 (inclusive of the pricey Pencil and keyboard accessories), Apple is a facing a potential windfall of $2.7 billion in additional iPad sales starting next year. The iPad Pro models and the new 2017 and 2018 versions of the iPad helped Apple earn $4.74 billion in in FY Q3 2018.
(Source: Statista)
Adobe releasing more iPad/iOS versions of its subscription-only Creative Cloud software products can add new revenue for Apple via App store commission fees. Apple can charge a 30% cut from a $9.99/month Photoshop for iPad (15% cut after more than 1 year subscription). Apple's revenue stream benefits if iPad users choose to subscribe via the iTunes app store.
The long-term implication of Adobe's move is that other major software vendors like Autodesk (ADSK) may also offer subscription-based software products for the iPad. Sales of the iPad Pro can also get a boost once it gets full native iOS versions of AutoCAD, Revit, or SolidWorks. Engineers, Architects, draftsmen will join designers/creative professionals/content creators/photographers/vloggers in using the iPad Pro as their de facto productivity laptop.
There are 25 million creative professionals (and millions more of amateurs, students/social media content creators) who can easily afford a $900 iPad Pro. Adobe and Autodesk can find new customers for their software subscription business from the hundreds of millions of iPad users. Autodesk can certainly find iPad users willing to shell out $49.99/month for AutoCAD LT (2D drafting program).
The iPad Pro Keeps Getting Better
Apple's ever-improving ARM/GPU design is only going to make the iPad Pro/iPad better for professional-level productivity. Adobe likely realized that last year's 2017 iPad Pro already touts better multi-core Geekbench score than a 2016 MacBook Pro with an Intel Core i7 processor. Look at the chart below. Take note that the two 2017 iPad Pro models were only using the old A10X Fusion processor.
Should Apple decide to use the newer A11 Bionic SoC (System-on-Chi) on the iPad Pro, this iOS tablet can hit more than 10,600 in GeekBench 4 multi-core benchmark score. Photoshop, like other professional-grade software relies on multi-core processors to maximize performance. It is therefore important to note that Apple has continuously improved the multi-core CPU compute performance of its iPad Products.
Please refer to the chart below just how much Apple has boosted the iPad's compute performance since the iPad Air. It has more than tripled in multi-core CPU power. Like it or not, Adobe cannot ignore the vast improvement of tablet computers. It is inevitable that Adobe has to grow outside of its x86 software comfort zone so it can find more subscribers.
Photoshop Next Year, Other Adobe Software Products Will Follow
Adobe chose to work initially on creating a new Photoshop for the iOS platform because 90% of creative professionals use Photoshop. After working on Photoshop for the iPad, it makes sense for Adobe to start creating iPad versions for its other web/print design software products. Two or three years from now Illustrator, InDesign, Acrobat, Dreamweaver, and Animate CC for the iPad can become a reality.
Apple will find more buyers of the iPad Pro once it can be used in all aspects of creative production, not just photo editing/compositing via Photoshop. In my opinion, the vector design product of Adobe, Illustrator CC will be less demanding to an ARM-based processor than Photoshop. Adobe will make more money if it can create a full iOS iPad native version of the $19.99/month Illustrator CC.
Apple has long-term benefits from Adobe's upcoming upgrade of its legacy x86 software products to run on the iPad. Apple gets more hardware sales and app store commission fees. I also dismiss the notion that Adobe's move could affect future Mac sales. The thing is that iOS versions of Adobe products cannot be 1:1 replacements of macOS versions. Photoshop for iPad will only be a full image editing/compositing program that won't have the video editing, 3D composition/editing, and animation features of the macOS version of Photoshop CC 2018.
My fearless forecast is that Apple's stock can hit $250 after one year. I Know First has a very bullish 12-month Apple stock prediction – 290.28. The 0.82 predictability score also denotes that I Know First's neural network touts very high historical accuracy in its one-year stock market trend forecasts for Apple's stock. We should put more trust in I Know First's AI stock-picking ability.
Past I Know First Success with Apple Stock Prediction
I Know First has made accurate AAPL stock predictions in the past bullish forecast from August 22, 2017.
The article discussed possible acceleration of Apple's research on Augmented Reality and self-driving car technologies as those are considered to be future diversification areas for Apple. Some key financial aspects were analyzed, including posting of a new record high of $162.51 at the end of August 2017. Finally, we expected that Apple coming up with a real major upgrade to the iPhone 7 could propel the stock to a new 52-week high. Since the forecast's release, where the bullish signal of 131.7 was identified by the algorithm with predictability rate of 0.61, Apple Inc. stock price surged that high that on August 2, 2018 the company's market capitalization became more than $1T and ended up on August 22, 2018 with stock price increase by 38.86%.
This bullish forecast for AAPL was sent to the current I Know First subscribers on August 22, 2017.

I Know First Algorithm Heatmap Explanation
The sign of the signal tells in which direction the asset price is expected to go (positive = to go up = Long, negative = to drop = Short position), the signal strength is related to the magnitude of the expected return and is used for ranking purposes of the investment opportunities.
Predictability is the actual fitness function being optimized every day, and can be simplification explained as the correlation based quality measure of the signal. This is a unique indicator of the I Know First algorithm. This allows users to separate and focus on the most predictable assets according to the algorithm. Ranging between -1 and 1, one should focus on predictability levels significantly above 0 in order to fill confident about/trust the signal.

This week we have part 2 of The Wardrobe, so if you missed the first part, start here.
I hope you enjoy it, kinda.
The Wardrobe, part 2
The next day I turned the key in the showroom door with some trepidation. I had been reluctant to come to work. Heck, I had been reluctant to even go to bed last night, for fear of something, whether a dream or reality. The whispering seemed to echo in my head, like an ear-worm.
I stood in the doorway, looking around like a customer. Various clocks ticked, tocked, clicked or displayed silently turning regulators, catching the morning light. One started chiming the hour. It was slow by fifteen minutes; I kept them all set at different times to avoid a clamour of everything chiming at once. The showroom looked inviting. It felt tense. Everything inside was waiting for me to step in and spring the trap.
I laughed at myself and bustled through the narrow gangway that led to my office at the back. Nothing reached out and grabbed me, or tripped me, or clutched at me. I gained the safety of my office, breathed a sigh of relief and set the kettle to the makings of coffee.
Safely armed with my caffeine, I sat down to check the mail, email and phone messages, and plan the trip to the Derbyshire auctions in March.
Apart from a tension within the showroom that did not extend to the office, nothing was out of the ordinary.
Until dusk.
Dusk comes early in February.
And with it came the whispering.
I ignored it for all of half an hour, then I got up, put everything away, and left for the night. If anyone called it was just too bad. No one was expected, after all.
At first, the late afternoon quiz show and then the news kept brightness and jollity in the room. As Masterchef came on, I realised I hadn't eaten all day and phoned for a takeaway. Sitting back with my chicken dhansak and garlic naan, I laughed at myself for my fancies. It was just a wardrobe.
Despite the uneventful day, I found myself nodding off, so went to bed about nine.
And lay there, unable to sleep.
I heard the church clock strike the quarters, then ten, then eleven.
I realised I was listening intently to make sure there were no whispers.
I got up, made cocoa, and took it back to bed to drink.
I lay down again, smiling at my stupidity. I nestled under the duvet.
The darkness intensified.
I was floating, floating towards an oblong of deeper darkness, surging along like a surfer riding the waves. Sometimes the darkness seemed very close, other times it receded. The susurration of the waves soothed me, and thrilled me at the same time. It was a teasing, taunting sensation, asking me how close I dared go. Filled with bravado I surged towards the dark, only to be caught up by someone speaking in Arthur's voice, telling me not to be so stupid.
I woke, my feet tangled in the duvet cover, my torso bare and cold, yet I was sweating freely. My heart was racing, my mouth dry. I staggered to the bathroom, and rinsed out my mouth.
The grey, lined face that stared back at me could not be my own.
I swivelled my lips and the reflection matched my movements. I lifted a lock of hair, stone grey and lank. How could that be? I clutched the edge of the washbasin, panting, aghast at the change in my appearance. I looked like my father at eighty.
I must be dreaming.
I returned to bed, determined to set this stupidity out of my mind.
Whether I was awake or dreaming, I cannot say, but I could hear the whispering again, all around me now. Some were kindly, saying, 'no, leave him be'; others just laughed, and called to me, name-calling, or wheedling 'come to me'. Now there were faces—strange, diaphanous heads floating and merging with each other most horribly. Arthur floated by and I wanted to reach out to him. Strange, he looked younger than he had when I buried him; younger even than when he'd joined the firm. He grew hale and hearty as I watched, an Arthur I'd never seen before. A young girl linked arms with him, 'don't give the game away' she whispered to him, and he melted back into the Arthur I'd known for years while she herself grew plumper, and greyer, and lined, until I thought I knew her, but then matched her face with a cameo I'd got at the house clearance along with the wardrobe.
Then it was there. The wardrobe filled my vision, approaching me, its doors open, beckoning me, enthralling me, drawing me into its arms. The whispering intensified, a devil's chorus of disembodied beings, pulling me into their circle. I started to scream, 'no, no!' The whispering consolidated into a ghostly hiss of 'yes, yes!' and rippling laughter.
I had to fight it, I had to run. The wardrobe enveloped me, enclosed me. I thrashed about in a frenzy, banging on the doors, kicking to get them away, anything to stop the closure of the ornate framework, feeding on my body. For the sudden realisation that this was what it was, a monster devouring my energy, my life force, keeping the whisperers in their strange half-existence, looking older or younger at will, all stealing the essence of life from me.
I knew that if the doors closed I would be lost. I had to escape. I had to emerge. I had to… wake… up.
I whispered as I watched the contents of my showroom in the dispersal sale. Do not buy me.

text: Riekie 1,152 Report post Posted August 5, 2019 I have been approached by a representative of the department of Home Affairs - see excerpt. Is there anyone in Melbourne or Victoria who is active in the South African community who would be willing to be the "spokesperson" for the South African community in Victoria? If not anyone on this forum, maybe you know of a person who would be ideal for this? Obviously it needs to be someone who is in touch with the South African community and aware of and up to date with current happenings and needs in the South African immigrant community in Melbourne or Victoria. Any ideas, please PM me and I'll follow up. Thanks heaps! I am a Community Liaison Officer with the Department of Home Affairs. We look to build relationships with community groups, so we can know how they are fairing and to be able to report up the line any gaps in government services. The Department makes frequent changes to visa programmes and introduces new visas, and has other initiatives such as announcing grants that community groups can apply for. For example, the Government recently introduced a new Sponsored Temporary Parent visa, and has announced two new provisional visas to encourage new migrants to live outside the main metropolitan areas. We seek relationships with community leaders to pass this information on to, have it circulated, and are grateful for any feedback we receive.

Quark Expeditions Announces Adventure Week at Arctic Watch Wilderness Lodge
Tour Operator Quark Expeditions March 02, 2016
WHY IT RATES: The word 'adventure' is thrown around too often but this truly is an adventure – of a lifetime. Traverse the tundra, kayak the sea, whatever your fancy. – Rich Thomaselli, TravelPulse Senior Editor

Quark Expeditions®, the leading polar adventure company announces a week full of exciting activities to ramp up the adventure and exploration at Arctic Watch Wilderness Lodge, during week one of the summer program.
Guests participating in the June 30, 2016 Adventure Week departure can explore the region on their own steam with special activities such as fat biking on sea ice; sea kayaking on the Northwest Passage; stand-up paddleboarding through challenging Google Canyon; an all-terrain vehicle "ride and hike" through spectacular Mars Mountain; trail running atop the bluffs and tundra of the Northwest Passage, and more. This is in addition to the lodge's popular array of complimentary activities.
"There are so many ways to explore this magnificent region," said Tessum Weber. "We now have fat bikes – specialized mountain bikes – that provide fantastic agility on sea ice and tundra. Stand-up paddleboarding provides amazing perspectives for exploring canyons 154 meters deep and gliding past ice floes. Kayaks are ideal for paddling rivers and swift rapids. And now, you can enjoy this diversity of activities, in the Arctic."

Arctic Watch specializes in providing an immersive arctic experience. Founders and hosts, famed arctic explorer and Order of Canada recipient, Richard Weber, and his wife, Josée Auclair have led expeditions to the North and the South Poles. Their sons, Tessum and Nansen, grew up in the Arctic, and return to Arctic Watch lodge every summer to share their passion for the region with guests.
"We're especially enthusiastic about Adventure Week. From the distinct Fat Bike Tours and the Super ATV Expedition, to the Running the Ridge Trail Run and Google Canyon Stand-up Paddleboarding & Hike, to the All-Terrain Journey & Hike to Mars Mountain - each activity provides a novel, exciting new way to explore the North," Richard said. "Guests will experience the true Arctic from an active and completely unique perspective."
Quark Expeditions® and Arctic Watch Wilderness Lodge began partnering in 2014 to offer a land-based polar safari experience.
"Arctic Watch has already been described as a 'best of the Arctic' tour because of the variety of wildlife and landscapes guests experience," said Andrew White, President of Quark Expeditions®. "It provides an opportunity to see the Arctic through the eyes of real explorers. The caliber of the leadership involved in this polar expedition is outstanding."

Ombudsman Services | Feb 27, 2019
Residential and business customers purchasing broadband from 1 March 2019 are set to benefit from a revision of Ofcom codes of practice - but it's not compulsory for providers to sign up.
Ofcom has updated the codes so that customers purchasing broadband will have clearer information upfront relating to broadband speeds, plus greater protection if the speed they receive is below a minimum guaranteed level.
Broadband purchases before 1 March 2019 are subject to the previous versions (October 2015 for residential customers and January 2016 for business customers).
The codes are voluntary and not all providers have signed up to the new conditions. Signatories to the new codes of practice are:
The existing codes set out a number of commitments to help customers shop around with confidence. For example, customers buying copper-based broadband are given an estimated speed range at the point of sale and a minimum speed in their contract.
Consumers then have the right to exit penalty-free if their speed regularly falls below the minimum level. However, there are several limitations to the current codes, including that they do not apply equally to all technologies and that they do not capture the effect of peak time congestion.
The three main changes are as follows:
Speed estimates given at the point of sale should reflect the speeds customers are likely to experience at peak times. Peak times will be measured as 8 - 10pm for residential customers and 12 - 2pm for business services.
The existing codes only apply in full to broadband services provided over certain networks such as copper and part-fibre. By moving to an approach that measures speeds at peak time, it's possible for the codes to apply in full to all access technologies. Under the new codes, cable and fibre to the premise (FTTP) providers will also be subject to the new speed guarantee conditions.
The right to exit will be extended to apply to bundled products, such as landline services on the same line, or pay TV services purchased at the same time as a broadband service. A new 30 day limit will apply for providers to improve speeds before they must offer the right to exit. Providers will also be required to make information about the right to exit more prominent.
Read the full press release on the Ofcom website
Updated versions of the codes are available on Ofcom's website: Residential and Business.

The news has spread that my book "Scar Wars Forged In Fright" is about my early childhood abuse and having flashbacks that interrupted the first nine years of my marriage. Mental Illness is still a stigma in society today and really it should not be that way. Because if we share our experiences and the healing we have obtained it could greatly improve the quality of someone else's life dealing with their mental illness, a loved one's mental illness, or even your own.
"I pledge my commitment to the Blog for Mental Health 2014 Project. I will blog about mental health topics not only for myself, but for others. By displaying this badge, I show my pride, dedication, and acceptance for mental health. I use this to promote mental health education in the struggle to erase stigma"

We have repaired many of these LG G6 phones with damage to the sim card reader, it looks like it is a very common issue with this phone. The sim card tray gets stuck or jammed inside the reader, and when force is applied to pull the tray out, it ends up damaging the pins for the sim card or memory card reader. It is easily repaired though if you have the correct tools and skills!

INTI Students Recognized at IDEERS for Their Work on Earthquake Engineering
Engineering students from INTI International University won a number of awards at this year's "Introducing and Demonstrating Earthquake Engineering Research in Schools" (IDEERS) international engineering competition. Students traveled to Taiwan from a number of countries including Vietnam, Japan, Korea, Taiwan and Singapore, to compete and learn about the importance of earthquake engineering and seismic protection in the region.
The competition was jointly organized by agencies including the Taiwan National Center for Research on Earthquake Engineering and the Asia-Pacific Network of Centers for Earthquake Engineering Research.
Over the course of two days, students designed and built simple structures addressing common construction issues faced in earthquake prone areas. Students also exhibited their own prototypes and architectural designs, and presented to a group of judges on how their models functioned in minimizing the impact of earthquakes. In one competition, INTI was selected as one of only six designs to be showcased among the best innovations from the competition.
Lee Hoong Pin, lecturer from the faculty of science, technology, engineering and mathematics, and the advisor for INTI's team said, "With the recent earthquake in Sabah, we can no longer remain complacent about this natural disaster and its effects in Malaysia. Participating in this event helped our students to gain hands-on experience in this increasingly important issue," he said.
In addition to receiving the overall second runner-up award for the postgraduate category – the winners of which were the National Taiwan University and the Hong Kong Science and Technology University in first and second place – the 10 INTI students representing Malaysia also secured other awards, including Best Design for Architecture and Aesthetic Design, Best Design Idea for Exhibits and second place for the Innovation Award for Seismic Isolation and Energy Dissipation.
"By enabling our students to participate in such competitions, INTI offers them first hand experiences to work on practical ideas which have an actual impact on the society around them. Our aim is to empower our students to not only develop their skills and capabilities to compete against their global peers, but to equip them with the relevant exposure they need to stand out in their future careers," Hoong Pin said.

Month: July 2014
Training 2014
My training is going to kick in this week for my next race. The Solemates' Tryptophun 100 at the end of November is the next run for me. This is a run in the White Tank Mountains right outside of Phoenix. They have a few run options for this race: 4 mile, 6 mile, 7.4 mile, and 24 hours. Each of these options still tops out at about 100 miles but the degree of difficulty of the trails varies with the longest trail being the steepest. We are aiming for the 4 or 6 mile but we will go run the trails to see how difficult each one is before we choose. My diet has been steadily decreasing in calories to take off some of the weight I have put on since The Old Pueblo 50 and I have started to lift weights and do more core work in preparation. I have run a bit this summer but not in the last couple weeks. Next week I begin a new schedule along with hard core change in diet. I will go a couple weeks on a liquid diet with mainly water and Vega One (an all in one nutritional supplement that is basically a vegan Ensure) and I will begin to run and lift in earnest.
Here is my first two weeks of workouts.
Week Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat Sun
7/28/2014 rest 6 mi road Tempo 6 mi road 5 mi Walk strength/core 12 mi
8/4/2014 rest 6 mi road Interval 6 mi road 8 mi Walk strength/core 20 mi
This is the basic schedule for my entire schedule. My tempo run will be 6 miles with 1 mile easy/4 miles 8min/mi/1 mi easy. The interval run will be 2 miles easy/4 x 800m @4:00/2 miles easy. 800m walks in between each 800m rep. This probably sounds like a light workout but I am also running in heat (100-110 degrees each day) and humidity depending on the time of day. My goal here is to get the long and slow going to increase my glycogen stores. I am also working on speed so I might actually attempt to finish this race with a respectable time. My biggest challenge here is to get my head wrapped around continuing even when I am tired. My Saturday and Sunday workouts will evolve into back-to-back long runs as my schedule moves closer to race day. Not only will the weather be cooler, but I will also be in better shape for those runs. I will also be running some of those at night and finishing between 3 and 6 am so I can be acclimated to running at a time when I would normally be sleeping. In the past, I have been a bit of a night owl so I should be fine for this. I worked the overnight shift for years so I think this might be fun. Not sure I will think this after I have already run 50 miles that day, we will see. I will be using Nike+ to post my runs online and I will also be using my Garmin (until the thing dies for good) to help track my heart rate and my distances.
Meditation will continue to be a big part of my routine to keep me resting better and increase my focus.
Thank you for following along my journey. I think I would post more about my personal life but it seems that is not very interesting to people who read my blog. I have gotten most of my followers and responses when I post about fitness, nutrition, and running. Go figure.
More later,
Summer officially begins for my family today. The kids had summer camp for the 4 weeks after school was out so it was not really summer yet. Even though they only went for 3 hours a day for 4 weeks, it was still school. Tomorrow we go to the LEGO Movie at the summer movies. We have not seen it yet. We bought the Blu-Ray but we wanted the kids to have something to look forward to so we held off watching it at home. They are still reluctant to go to the theater at times so seeing a movie they have not seen yet might be motivation as well.
Summer projects.
Education. We are continuing their education over the summer but we make it as fun as we can. Dictator is getting good at reading and can even sit and read some material by himself. Her Majesty wants desperately to do the same activities as her brother but still struggles. This is a point of contention for him because he wants to do his work by himself. We bought membership to the science museum so we will be going there many times over the month before school starts again. Fortunately, they are now going to the same school so they start and end not only at the same time but in the same location. This saves a lot of travel time.
I am slowly getting the garage not only straightened but also cleared of a lot of garbage we have collected over the years. This task is getting slower as the kids get older because 4 people generate more junk than 2. Stuff that goes in the garage tends to disappear, though if it not remembered within a couple weeks. The real difficulty is getting rid of things that we 'might' need in the future. I have noticed that a lot of the time things we dispose of tend to become useful shortly after they are gone. We also need to have both springs on the garage door replaced. A few months ago I remember the door slamming down harder than normal but I did not think much of it. Right after, the door would not open on its own anymore. I noticed that a couple wires were loose and I have spent a few months problem-solving the door from time to time. It occurred to me that the spring might be broken but thinking back, one of the springs was always broken and it never occurred to me that it was running on one spring until it was pointed out by my mother-in-law. I realize now that one of the springs has always been broken.
We are looking at possibly going to Sea World this summer, if we can swing it. I spent a lot of summer vacations in my youth in San Diego because my uncle lived/lives there. For awhile my grandmother was there as well. Those were fun times. My kids want to go to a beach and I really want them to experience all the fun of Sea World. We would also get to see family.
This has become a travesty. Applying for a cashier job and I do not even get a 'Thank you for applying' letter. I believe I have said this before, applying for a job online is a ridiculous and soul-sucking endeavor. Not being able to contact a real person for a job that requires less skill than it takes to walk and breathe at the same time is silly. Want to know what is even more ridiculous? I will tell you. The jobs I apply for have been open since I first applied a year ago. Even a job like a baker that does require some knowledge and skill could involve training and am fairly sure I could have become a proficient baker in an entire year of on-the-job training.
I may just look into one of these at-home businesses. Maybe I can sell people vitamins or something. I am past doing jobs I can't believe in, though. I have to do some research. I have seen a few that might work but most of the products are just soulless, manufactured crap aimed at making a buck. Of course, this is the majority of what it seems people do these days anyway. Maybe I am just aiming for a standard too high for the workplace today.
I run when I can. I am focusing on mountain running. We are running in the Solemates Tryptophun Run this fall. Fortunately, this is local and we can actually practice/train on the course we will be racing on. It is also a 7 mile loop so, even if someone gets lost, someone can still be easily be found. I need to work because the races I want to race in are beginning to cost a lot more money. The three races I want to race in this winter will cost over $500 just for race fees. This does not include time to train, nutrition, and equipment.
Alta. I have a pair of Alta shoes that I have only used a few times. The sole is coming away from the upper. I am sad about this because I thought these were well made shoes. I might try another model but I think I will try for a pair of Skora or Vibrams for the 100 mile race. Fortunately, the loop is only 7 miles, So I can test different shoes for distance on the day of the race.

Coin collecting raises a lot of questions and concerns for many, especially beginners. Here are some general answers to the top five most frequently asked questions our staff at Bellevue Rare Coins have been asked.
Simply put, supply and demand. A coin's value is determined by how many are readily available and the demand for said coin. If a particular coin has a high mintage and not many people are after the item, its market worth will decrease.
Coin collecting has become even more popular than in recent past due to the fact that there are many more coins existing today that are connected to historical moments. Many collectors are often history teachers or history enthusiasts, seeking tangible items from a time long ago. The thrill of finding such items provides immense joy and fulfillment in ones self and coin collection.
Starting a coin collection can feel as though one is embarking on a never-ending journey without a clear path. For beginners, it does not have to feel as such. Many experts and seasoned collectors advise new comers to dedicate their time and efforts towards a particular type of coin, region or era once a budget has been set.
With regard to American coins, the United States Mint currently produces six denominations: one cent, nickel, dime, quarter, half dollar, and one dollar. However, in the past The Mint also struck various denominations such as half cents, two cents, three cents, half dimes, and 20 cent pieces.
By far, one of the best resources for coin collectors is the coveted Red Book. This book is considered to be The Bible for numismatists. Utilize your local library by consulting other coin collecting books and expand your knowledge of your new hobby. Lastly, and possibly one of the most important suggestions for coin collecting resources is to make friends or find a mentor at your local coin club. These experts have years upon years of experience that will provide you with a wealth of knowledge for your new endeavor.

One of Puebla's best places to see live bands that aren't just 1980s cover bands. Bourbon St. has an old-school style and features soul, new jazz, rock n roll, rockabily, and rhythm and blues, even an all-female jazz band. The food is American-style casual, but everything is made in house and with diliberate care for the ingridients and preparation. This is no preppy hangout or pretentious cocktail bar, this is a place for authentic music lovers who want to sip their whiskey and hangout is a no-frills bar with lots of great ambiance.

Martin Parr has photographed the most famous horse races in the world. He's shot races in England and France, in India and Sri Lanka, in Australia and South Africa and Zimbabwe. And yet he had never made it to one of the most celebrated races in the U.S., the Kentucky Derby in Louisville, Ky.
"The Queen went in 2007," Parr tells TIME. "She's a racing nut as well, and she beat me to it by eight furlongs. So I finally decided to get around to it. I finally put it on my list and I'm very glad I did because it's quite an event."
With more than 170,000 people attending last weekend's "most exciting two minutes in sports," as the Kentucky Derby is known, Parr was in his own version of paradise. "I was delighted," he says, matter-of-factly. "It's very American: there's no place where the prices are so huge. It's American Capitalism at its best and worst. Everything out there was crazy."
Parr is famous for his satirical approach and in an arena known for extravagance being on full display, it was easy pickings for the English photographer. "You just walk around and you take pictures," he says. "You get a little bit tired with people with hats, so it's your job to find something a bit different. That's the aspiration. Otherwise all these races pictures would look the same. But, of course, the hat is irresistible. It's a photographer's dream."
The secret, he adds, is to find the places that will keep on giving: "You locate different hotspots and different places that you keep coming back to. It's a massive space. I probably didn't get to every grandstand, every corner. So you go back to the same places where you know things reveal themselves. And then, you watch the actual race. You're waiting for the person to erupt when their horse looks like it might be winning, and they're screaming and shouting."
Martin Parr is a member of the Magnum Photos agency.

The fire service received notice at around 14:00 on Monday that the building was on fire, sending three crews to the scene. The fire was located in the wooden attic, hampering extinction because of a thermal load wood ceiling, although the team managed to get the flames under control. Early indications suggest that the fire could have been started by an electrical fault.

I have felt that this year is the year of change pretty much from go. Relationships seem to be folding like last weeks laundry or starting with the ignorance of those who still have the Brady Bunch encoded into our lil' brains. Hey some do work, right?
School is back in session and I see that I am going to have to buy a serious mack-daddy pencil sharpener and a wipe off pen as my youngest who hates homework leaves these things at school and I am not the paragon of organization, Oprah could do a show on me. I wouldn't expect gasps more like the oh my face. Dasperately seeking dressers is on of the main problems. I have none and the boys have one tiny one, the girl child changeling has one small that she just will not use. Nothing like spending a couple hundred on her to see it all in the floor two days later.
I am seeing e-buddies come into their own, my friend Graham of One man's travel's, just got asked to shoot a spread for a magazing, you go Graham!I will add a link, but I am just being a bit lazy at the moment.
My daughter and boyfriend are still oil and water. She screams and cusses and makes a fool of herself. He does well most of the time. Putting myself in his shoes I would feel like bailing too. Yes, we are doing the obvious, counciling and therapy and anything else they throw my way.
I remain out of sorts. I think I am stressing myself into more relapse if even just mini one so... nothing all that new here.

Fans hoping to catch Gabriel Vilardi in action at next week's rookie games against Vegas will unfortunately have to wait longer to see the club's top draft pick in action. The Kings announced Thursday that Vilardi, the Windsor Spitfires forward selected 11th overall at the 2017 NHL Draft, will miss all on-ice activity at Los Angeles' upcoming rookie camp and training camp due to a back sprain.
"Gabe has already begun his rehabilitation and continues to work hard," General Manager Rob Blake said in a team release. "The injury is something that flared up throughout the summer."
(In correspondence with Spitfires GM Warren Rychel, Jim Parker of the Windsor Star noted Vilardi has a hip injury and in a separate story said the forward "has been in California all summer" as he rehabilitates it.)
Vilardi did not skate at the club's development camp, held the final week of June at Toyota Sports Center. At the time, that was attributed largely to the conclusion of a long season that culminated in Vilardi hoisting the Memorial Cup on May 28. But he did not skate with Canada at the World Junior Summer Showcase that bridged June and July, and recent correspondence across the OHL did not offer an indication that he had resumed skating.
Vilardi will continue to be evaluated throughout his rehabilitation, but at this point there's no timetable on his return.
Among the younger players in his draft class, Vilardi, who turned 18 on August 16, gutted through a pair of freak ailments during a draft season in which he impressively totaled 29 goals and 61 points in 49 games. He suffered a knee injury at a Hockey Canada camp in August, 2016, and after returning on October 6 and posting nine points in his first four games, was sidelined by an appendectomy that cost him the end of November and almost all of December.
A possession hound who excels in front of the net and is capable of making plays off the rush and the half-wall, Vilardi, who will also focus on improving his skating, was projected as among the very first draft selections after top prospects Nico Hischier and Nolan Patrick were off the board. It's nebulous whether his drop at the NHL Draft was directly related to his injury history, but Vilardi, the fourth ranked North American skater in NHL Central Scouting's final rankings, was seen as more likely to be selected by Colorado at #3 than Los Angeles at #11. The Kings current management group was also high on Owen Tippett at their draft spot, but when he was chosen by Florida at #10, they were very excited to have the opportunity to pick Vilardi one spot later.
By selecting Vilardi, the Kings checked off a major box in their organizational structure by claiming a player with the potential to play in the NHL as a first line center. (Vilardi also saw time on the wing during periods of his draft year but still projects as a center and was strong on faceoffs in 2016-17.) This injury doesn't change that outlook but delays their ability to finally get him on the ice and with their renowned development group that would have been able to more quickly work with him on his skating.
It also delays the start of the OHL season for the competitive young goal scorer and playmaker who grew up a big fan of both Daniel Briere and Jeff Carter.
Though Vilardi won't compete, the Kings will host the Golden Knights for a pair of rookie games at Toyota Sports Center at 5:00 p.m. on September 12 and 1:00 p.m. on September 13. $10 tickets for each game are available for purchase on the day of the game at TSC, with proceeds from all ticket sales benefiting the Kings Care Foundation. Rookie camp takes place from September 8-13, with training camp opeming on September 13. Los Angeles opens the preseason against Vancouver on Saturday, October 16 at Staples Center.

My research focuses on the following topics:
- Software Verification & Validation
- Predictive Models
- Human Factors in Software Engineering
- Recommender Systems
- Technology-Enhanced Learning
- Software Engineering Education
Research Interests
Software Estimation and Predictive Models
Accurate software estimation is important for effective project management activities such as: budgeting, project planning and control. A novel neuro-fuzzy framework that combines soft computing with an algorithmic model has been developed for software estimation, which has greatly improved estimation accuracy in comparison with other well-known conventional models. Our framework has been expanded and generalized, and two patents (US-7328202-B2 and CND-2,477,919) have been granted. This encourages us to pursue the application of our novel and patented neuro-fuzzy framework for different types of predictions in other fields: e.g., in Business for interest/inflation rate forecast; in Medicine for predicting cancer growth, compliance to drugs, evolution of chronic diseases, and other determinants of health; and in software analytics.
Human Aspects of Software Engineering
Software engineering is forecast to be among the fastest growing employment fields in ensuing decades. This investigation correlates the personality types of software engineers to the main tasks of a software life cycle. This research tries to match the MBTI dimensions (extraversion-introversion, sensing-intuition, thinking-feeling, judging-perceiving) with some skills believed to be relevant in each phase of a software life cycle model, skills such as concern for user requirements, ability to innovate, attention to details, compliance with deadlines, and so on. The result of this work may help software professionals find a niche in sub-areas of software engineering, increase their job satisfaction and improve performance.
e-Learning Technologies
Nowadays technology has become pervasive, but instructors still have to tap the full potential of modern technology into their teaching methods and adapt to new e-learning tools that facilitate teaching and learning. There is a broad spectrum of software tools that can be incorporated into e-education and I am beginning to exploit some research avenues in this field. My goal is to incorporate the latest technologies in support of education, research and academic needs. The focus of my research is to investigate the essential technology that can easily be integrated into face-to-face, blended/hybrid, or on-line courses.

When it comes to fund raising, the proof is in the pudding. I can think of no better way to help raise money for an organization than to bring the 1 lb red roaster to an event and roast in front of people. The beans in their fluid bed dance combined with the wonderful aroma of fresh roasted coffee brings people around from blocks away!
Recently, TennyTinyCoffeeCompany participated in two different fund raisers with different but successful results in both cases. The concept of fund raising should be planned but in the case of the coffee roasters, your results as they like to say on television, may vary. In both cases, considering scope and scale, while raising varied amounts, I am able to say it was successful!
Mike Garibaldi of Napa Valley Masters Water Polo and Anni Minnuzo of the Small Business Development Council and an avid water polo player, and I met some months back strategizing the deployment of the roasters at a water polo event. We had already done some events and they were successful but there was no historical average or benchmark to see what would happen if the roasters were at an event. So, we took the proverbial, calculated chance and cast our choice to bring them,
The roasters were brought to the Masters Water Polo event and along with making French Pressed Coffee, people responded well and chose to buy beans and donate money to drink coffee. After two days, of roasting and serving coffee and taking out all expenses for the operation, TeenyTinyCoffeeCompany presented a cashiers check in the form of $200.00 to Mike Garibaldi for use of whatever he wished within his organization to help further water polo. In a post debrief with Mike, he admitted that they had no idea before what would happen but he was sure glad that we did this!
Event two was the Second Annual Porchfest held on the porches of residence houses in Napa. Since we are the Napa Valley Ramblers coffee company of choice, it was only fitting to have the roaster present at the Porchfest event last Sunday July 30, 2012. When you combine coffee roasting with awesome music from this folk band, you have a recipe for success. I am still trying to figure out how to get images off my new iPhone so you will just have to take my word here. lol.
We sold coffee by the pound only at this event and when it was all done, I was able to pay my expenses again and then go have made up a cashiers check in the amount of $50.00 for whatever the guys in the band with Napa Valley Ramblers wants to use it for covering their expenses. Their was talk of having a banner made for future events and that would be an excellent use of the money.
So, their you have it. TeenyTinyCoffeeCompany was also involved in raising monies and awareness at Hoe Down at The Hay Barn at Gordon Huether's Gallery to benefit The Wolfe Center. According to the letter received, we helped raise $65,000 towards that aim and again, people loved the roaster and smelling great coffee!
If you have an idea for a fund raiser or want to raise more monies for your team, business, or charity, please contact Ken Graham at 707-637-3919 and we will work together to create your successful fund raising event with the goodness of LIVE ROAST COFFEE!

Southwark Council cuts services in Trinity Village
TNRA had a meeting on 7 May with Cllr Dennis, Cllr Islam and Council officers to express our unhappiness with cut backs in street cleaning services in Trinity Village. For many years, our streets have been visited daily by a litter picker. Going forward, the litter picker will visit on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays only. The move to alternate days for litter picking took place in much of the borough two years ago. It has been delayed in the north, given the footfall, but five members of the litter picking team have been let go this year and so, since 1 April, the reduced service has applied in the north of the borough as well.
We will be monitoring the levels of cleanliness in Trinity Village under the new regime. If standards slip below the statutory standards the Council is required to maintain, we will complain to our councillors and Mick Lucas, the Council's Acting Director of Environment. The Council has previously circulated to us the Litter Pick "Beat" which includes Trinity Village. Cole Street, Globe Street and Swan Street (north and south) have not been included to date in the list of streets in our "Beat". The Council has agreed to add the three streets to the list.
We discussed the monthly detritus sweeping of our streets. Council officers confirmed that this will be more frequent in times of leaf fall in the Autumn. We will also request extra sweeping in the Spring if the build up of pollen is excessive, as it has been this year. In addition to the litter picker, we are on the schedule for a visit from the "mechanical broom" - the large sweeper van - every Monday and Thursday. We also receive a visit one day a week from the "scarab", the smaller sweeper van.
We discussed the loss of the monthly TNRA skip. The Council has one skip lorry & skip - owned in-house - for use in the borough, mainly on market days. The cost of bringing the skip to Trinity Village - in the Ultra High Emission Zone - will be £200 each time. The Council does not have the £2,400 pa required to fund this.
Murder in Tiverton Street
Over the last weekend, a youth was stabbed to death in Tiverton Street, the cut-through between Newington Gardens and the Elephant & Castle that many use on their way to the Tube. We will be discussing this and other evidence of a growing local crime problem (several recent burglaries, a sexual assault in Avon Place) at the next meeting of the Chaucer Ward Safer Neighbourhood Panel on 20 May.
The police are only able to respond to crimes that are notified to them. So please ensure that you report all crimes. Dial 999 to report emergencies, when something is happening right now, requiring an immediate police response. Dial 101 to report non-emergencies. Please email TNRA with the date of the crime and, critically, your crime/incident number. This information will remain private to TNRA and will only be shared with the police and councillors to support our case for action to be taken.
Update on new contracts for ASTs
TNRA has heard from yet more Trinity Village residents in a position of renewing their leases, many of whom have strongly objected to the new AST terms and the manner in which Knight Frank has introduced the new policy. As reported at the AGM last month, TNRA has continued to seek expert advice on the matter, whilst lobbying Trinity House and Knight Frank's senior management for a face-to-face meeting as a matter of urgency. A meeting has finally been agreed and will take place in early June. An update on the outcome of the meeting, along with our ongoing efforts on this issue, will be provided in next month's TNRA News. Meanwhile, TNRA urges residents who may have any related concerns to continue to contact us. Our AST sub-committee will assist you directly in any way it can.
Porch Sale
Thanks to all who donated items or came to buy at our Porch Sale on 27 April. £245 was raised for TNRA funds. Saturday bookstalls outside 57 Trinity Church Square will start again on 11 May, weather permitting.

2013 Winter Ball marks fifth-year milestone in Sherman Center
On Friday, Dec. 6, 2013, members of the Central Massachusetts community gathered in the Albert Sherman Center at UMass Medical School in Worcester to raise funds in support of the lifesaving mission of the academic medical center formed by UMass Medical School and UMass Memorial Medical Center.
The centerpiece of this annual fundraising event is the Fund-A-Need auction. At the 2013 event, the beneficiary was the Center for Autism and Neurodevelopmental Disorders (CANDO) Clinic, which provides access to comprehensive clinical services for children with autism spectrum and other neurodevelopmental disorders. Proceeds from the auction will go toward matching funds for a $500,000 donation from an anonymous family.
CANDO was established to address the rising prevalence of autism spectrum disorder, which now touches one in 50 children. It offers evaluation and treatment services for children with complex needs who are otherwise unable to obtain stabilizing treatment or have long waits to receive services from other centers outside the region. Care and services are provided by an interdisciplinary team of specialists from UMass Medical School and UMass Memorial Health Care.

Joshua Ledet Remains In Idol's Top 7! [VIDEO]
Good job everyone! Joshua moves on the American Idol's next round of competition. It's only going to get tougher from here, but I'm up for the challenge. Are you? Tonight was crazy!
Joshua was in the bottom three for the first time this week, but was quickly told he was safe. I'm not lying, they had my nerves really bad. Jessica was voted off and given a last chance to sing, but in the middle of her song the judges came up on the stage and used their ONLY save. Drama! In between all of that, former Idol's, Jennifer Hudson and James Durban performed and kept the mood from being too drab. However, I will make one small note. Jennifer was voted off Idol and has become a HUGE star. Winning both Grammys and Oscars, so being voted off can't be that bad, when you're this high up in the game.
Bottom line, Joshua moves on baby! However, seven still remain and now no one can be saved from elimination. Does that mean two will have to go next week? We'll have to wait and see. For now, everyone can breath easily. One thing's for sure, we've got our work cut out for us. We've got to make sure we vote extra hard next week.
By the way, don't forget you can purchase Joshua's songs on iTunes. If you thought he was good performing them on stage, you've got to hear the songs in their mastered form. Trust me, they're UNBELIEVABLE!
Here's a recap of his performance with Jessica Sanchez and Hollie Cavanagh as they performed "What Doesn't Kill You (Stronger)" by former American Idol Kelly Clarkson.

There are plenty of ways to promote a real estate business. The best way might be through word of mouth marketing. Although word of mouth marketing is great, there are inherent issues with word of mouth marketing. Simply relying on word of mouth marketing often won't lead to more potential customers.
In this day and age, even if word of mouth marketing works, it most likely isn't enough. That's because potential clients, buyers or sellers, don't look to buy or sell property like they used too. Check out reasons why advertising on social media is a must for all real estate agents.
Why Real Estate Agents Must Advertise on Social Media
Before getting into why real estate agents must advertise on social media, it helps to define advertising. Advertising can be anything from a television commercial, to an ad in a magazine, to a radio commercial, and even to an Instagram post.
Social media advertising doesn't necessarily try to sell something. Social media advertising is about building and maintaining a brand. It's not the same as a television commercial that talks about the latest coupon offering.
That's why social media advertising could be effective for real estate agents while not being effective at all for something like a cereal company.
Now that's out of the way, check out why real estate agents must advertise on social media.
Message control – As opposed to word of mouth marketing, you can control the message on social media advertising. Word of mouth marketing requires someone else to describe your pros, and hopefully not your cons, to someone else. The person discussing what a great, or not so great, real estate agent you are does so when you aren't around. If something bad comes out of that individual's mouth, you won't be there to defend yourself.
Cost – Social media advertising doesn't cost that much. In fact, it can cost nothing except time. The very best social media advertising doesn't come off as advertising. That's the key to making it work. What does it cost to post a picture, or talk about your day? Not much.
Social media advertising is natural relationship building – Every time you post something on a social media platform, you're building your relationship with your followers. This is why a ridiculous or stupid post can lead to disaster. If you keep this in mind that you're building a relationship every time you post (don't forget it's for free!), you'll do well with your social media advertising.
Advertising on social media isn't for everyone. Retail companies often waste advertising dollars on social media. For real estate agents, social media can be an amazingly cost effective way to build their brands. Advertising via social media also allows real estate agents to build relationships and control the message.
