This page keeps our clients up to date with what is happening on our hosting network. All of our clients should regularly check this page for any announcements we make. Our 'Latest News' is displayed in the left hand column below. 'Unscheduled Maintenance' on the server network, is displayed in the right hand column below. Clients can also subscribe to our free RSS newsfeed services below, which will automatically deliver you our announcements via your newsfeed reader software (eg Outlook), via Live Bookmarks in your web browser, or via your mobile phone (via an RSS news reader). More information can be found here.
Our clients are now able to register a whole new range of recently released Top Level Domain Name Extensions.
At the Lounge Network, we make an ongoing commitment to investing in resource and technology that ensures our servers run at optimal performance & availability - and most importantly - keeps your website or app running smoothly. Recently this has included;
• a complete overhaul of the shared hosting architecture at the Vocus Datacentre in Auckland, including upgrading all front-end servers and SATA drives to HP hardware,
• the implementation of MySQL Governor to regulate usage and prevent a site from affecting others when it requires additional resource,
• over $70,000 and 1000 hours of development/engineering time into upgrading mail systems and storage, providing you with a significantly more robust service.
With our Corporate/Business web hosting plans, there are a small number of shared hosting customers (less than 1%) whose resource use would be considered 'excessive' for the shared plan that they are on. To ensure that your website is never affected by the 1%, we have moved away from offering unmetered diskspace and traffic on our web hosting plans, and instead have implemented some new usage quotas. The updated plan can be viewed on our web hosting plans page. Business Class hosting users can view the updated hosting plan at http://www.loungenetwork.co.nz/nz-business-web-hosting/
If you are one of the 99% - you won't be affected by the changes, and your website and email will continue to work as normal. The new quotas will only affect the 1% of customers who fall outside of what's considered 'fair use'.
If you are one of the 1% - we'll be in touch to look at how we can help you curb your usage, or, offer you a hosting solution better suited to your needs.
Dear Customers,
We are writing to advise that we have scheduled maintenance TONIGHT on one of our mysql servers during the following period.
Start Time: 16/10/2014 00:00 NZDT
End Time: 16/10/2014 04:00 NZDT
The following database server will be affected
mysql5.webhost.co.nz (mysql5.0 server)
We thank you for your understanding while this working is completed and apologise for any inconvenience caused.
Due to the NZRS (New Zealand domain registry) being overloaded, all new .nz registrations are failing. This is affecting all registrations and pre-registrations. Please bear with us while the NZ registry gets this resolved.
Update- This was resolved at around 2:30pm today.
Our upstream providers will be applying updates to MySQL on the different CPanel servers over the next week. In order to do this, MySQL will need to be stopped, the update applied, and MySQL restarted. If your website uses a database, it may experience issues while this update is being completed. We apologise for any inconvenience while this work is done.
As you may already know Wellington and upper parts of the South Island were rocked by a severe earthquake this morning, causing quite a bit of damage. The regions continues to be rocked by severe aftershocks. We hope everyone is safe and ok across NZ.
Our main office has been disrupted by the Wellington earthquakes. As a result of the quakes, we have had periods of no power or internet access. So this may affect our ability to respond to enquiries during this time. We may have more power outages as aftershocks continue to strike our offices.
Our web hosting services however are not affected in anyway. The servers are housed in professional datacentres in Auckland, Wellington and overseas, and are designed to withstand these types of earthquakes. So please bear with us during this time.
We are aware that there are currently intermittent network issues in the Auckland region affecting all providers. This is affecting some customers from accessing systems on the Lounge Networks, and the wider internet. Our network engineers are monitoring this issue and working with upstream providers where appropriate to minimise the impact on our customers.
Update: Our upstream has confirmed that this issue is now resolved.

Tetsuo II: Body Hammer
Dir. Shinya Tsukamoto, 1992
82 min
With Tomorowo Taguchi and Shinya Tsukamoto
In Japanese, with English subtitles
"I don't know what I am," cries a Japanese salaryman, whose rage at his son's kidnapping by violent thugs transforms his body into a living machine. In the big-budget follow-up to his cult classic Tetsuo: The Iron Man, Shinya Tsukamoto continues his surrealist exploration of the blurring of technology and the human body in a postindustrial world. Hailed as a strikingly original masterpiece, Tetsuo II: Body Hammer uses subversive and hallucinatory imagery to vividly capture the waves of technological fear coursing throughout Japanese science fiction in the second half of the twentieth century.Buy tickets/get more info now

The Genetic Opera is a performance that, within the plot of Repo! The Generic Opera, encapsulates Shilo, Nathan, and Rotti's final confrontation. The Opera itself functions as a marketing piece for GeneCo as all the performers and presenters are either recipients of GeneCo products and services, employees thereof, or both. Society seems to have accepted this as a cultural fixture, illiustrating the pervasive nature of GeneCo.
Structurally, the Opera bears little resemblance to an opera, having a set script, songs, and blocking and appears to be more like a talent or variety show with smaller acts and vignettes. One of the acts teased by Rotti, the curing of Shilo, suggests that curing, surgery, or other medical practice is one of the possible acts to appear at any given Opera.
Genterns and the Band Leader perform the opening of the Genetic Opera, wherein GeneCo customers are urged to "Testify!" ("We Started This Op'ra Shit!") about the surgical work GeneCo has performed on them.
Notably, Blind Mag is bound to perform in the Opera or risk the reposession of her GeneCo financed eyes.

For Los Altos Hills residents Kyle and Connor McGraw, Nueva School's 2018-19 boys basketball season wasn't just special because their team had its most successful campaign in program history. It also provided the brothers the rare opportunity to play together.
"It was great playing with him," Kyle said of Connor. "It was one of the first times; I usually just get to practice with him."
That's because the brothers are three years apart. Kyle is a senior and Connor is a freshman who went from being one of the Mavericks' biggest fans to their starting point guard in one year.
"I always watched the Nueva team play and didn't realize what it would be like to play with Kyle on the same team," Connor said. "It was amazing."
Connor added that he's "always looked up to Kyle" – and not just because his 6-foot-3 brother has six inches on him. Forward Kyle averaged a team-best 21 points per game as a junior, leading Nueva to a second-place finish in the Private School Athletic League North Division and to the quarterfinals of the Central Coast Section Division V playoffs.
That's as far as Nueva, which launched its basketball program in 2015, had ever advanced in the playoffs – at least until Connor arrived at the small private school in San Mateo. It didn't take him long to make an impression on coach Chris Brandin.
"He was open about my role, which I loved," Connor said of the coach. "He said that I would start the season on varsity, but my role depended on how I did in practice. By the first game, I was the starting point guard and further on, I secured my role."
By the end of the regular season, the Mavericks secured their first PSAL North Division title. Nueva went 14-0 in league, ending Pacific Bay Christian's six-year reign as champion.
"The highlight was beating Pacific Bay Christian," said Kyle, whose team beat the Eagles 62-49 and 49-46. "We had lost every game to them (before this year)."
After beating sixth-seeded Woodside Priory 48-42 in the CCS quarterfinals, the No. 3 Mavericks avenged another loss. They defeated No. 2 St. Francis of Watsonville – the team that eliminated them from the playoffs the year before – 65-54 in the semifinals Feb. 21.
"It was great to finally beat them and make it to CCS finals and qualify for states," Kyle said.
Although Nueva fell to top-seed Eastside Prep 53-47 in the title game two days later, the team still earned a berth in the Northern California playoffs for getting that far. It was another first for the program.
The Mavericks made more school history by winning their NorCal opener Feb. 26. Seeded 12th in Division V, visiting Nueva stunned No. 5 Liberty of Madera 79-66.
"They were a really tough team with some really nice players," Connor said. "They came out playing better than us, but in the third quarter, we destroyed them."
Kyle credits much of that to his team's defense in the second half.
"They have a player who averages 30 points per game, and we focused on him defensively," he said of Liberty's Makani Whiteside. "He had 27, but we shut him down more in the second half."
The Mavericks' season ended two days later at the home of a familiar foe. No. 4 Eastside Prep beat them 54-51 in the second round.
"We were up most of the way, but they took the lead going into fourth and we couldn't get it back," Kyle said.
Kyle, who averaged a team-best 17 points per game this season, will next play for NCAA Division III college Caltech.
Connor, meanwhile, will try to help Nueva reach even greater heights.
"This season will be a big help for next year," said Connor, whose team went 22-6 overall. "It's a good stepping stone."

Burglar steals safe from St Albans eatery
PUBLISHED: 09:51 19 December 2018 | UPDATED: 10:12 19 December 2018
A burglar has stolen a safe containing £500 from George Street Canteen in St Albans.
The thief broke into the eatery at 11.45pm yesterday by smashing a window with a drain rod, forcing it open and climbing inside.
However they did not come into the property until 12.30am.
After searching the till, the burglar stole a 30kg safe carrying up to £500 in coins - a float from an event the canteen had run at an office in Luton.
They also threw netting over the CCTV camera after it had captured the break-in and got out of the building by unlocking the back door.
It is believed they climbed in over the back wall of the property, which runs between the canteen and the cathedral, before crossing a yard full of wood and then a fence.
The open door and smashed window was discovered at 2am today by the butcher. It is believed someone was in the building until 4pm on Tuesday.
Owner Kevin Lee said replacing the window would be expensive as the canteen is in a Conservation Area.
He expressed concern about the effect on his small business, especially around Christmas.
"I'm still a bit shocked," he added.
Police were called at 2.22am this morning and have asked anyone with information to contact them by calling 101 and quoting crime reference number 41/67286/18.
The canteen was set up in 2015 by Kevin and his wife, Julie, and was nominated for several awards at this year's St Albans Food and Drink Awards.
On its Facebook page, the canteen has posted: "Unfortunately due to a break in during the night and our safe being stolen we will only be able to take card payment until we can get to the bank after sorting everything out!
"If anyone spots a large white safe anywhere please let us know."

By Samuel Oyadongha, Yenagoa
The Bayelsa State Command of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) weekend said its men intercepted a total of 195.92kg of drugs last year in different parts of the state with 103 suspects arrested.
Among the impounded drugs were 82.3grms of cocaine, 39 sachets of psychotropic substance and 8.3kg of indian hemp concealed in bags of dried pepper.
A 23 year old man who was conveying the cannabis concealed in bags of dried pepper was nabbed by narcotic officers at a check point along the along the East-West road.
The state NDLEA boss, Frank Hanachor who disclosed this to newsmen in Yenagoa said two persons were also were arrested with multiple voters' card in their possession and had been transferred to the relevant agency.
According to the anti-drug agency boss, a total number of eighty persons associated with hard drugs in the state were counseled last year by the agency.
Hanachor while lamenting the harm being done to society by drug trafficking and consumption noted that among the drug suspects being prosecuted at the Federal High Court, Yenagoa, were 17 females.
He however regretted that only one suspect was convicted last year due to long adjournments of matters in the court even as he decried the high consumption of hard drugs in the stat.
Hanachor who explained that the agency's responsibility also involved counseling of drug users to enable them disengage from the act said "Drug consumption affects the economy. Drug users are prone to violence, when there is violence, people relocate to other places. We do not only arrest peddlers of drugs, we also arrest the users."
He urged residents of the state to give vital information to assist its operatives in fishing out drug users and peddlers in their midst assuring that the identity of such informants would treated with secrecy.
He also pleaded with the state government to provide the agency with befitting office complex as well as patrol vehicles and water crafts to help enhance its operations both on land in the coastal areas.

And there's a good chance that you've used it in your daily life.
According to GIS Lounge editor Caitlin Dempsey, "GIS has already affected most of us in some way without us even realizing it. If you've ever used an Internet mapping tool to find directions, congratulations, you've personally used GIS."
At CCRC, GIS mapping is being used every day to help with community assessments, outreach and advocacy – and to pinpoint where to put new Head Start locations and child care centers. "CCRC carries out GIS mapping to figure out where our parents and providers are so that we can target our resources and services in those areas." Nineberg added.
CCRC's ongoing community assessments uncover assets (positives like social services and hospitals) and disincentives (negatives like liquor stores and food deserts) to determine the basic health of the community. This is just one example of how GIS mapping at CCRC helps planners and community advocates see what's really needed in the community.
This Assembly District 46 map shows the spatial density of CCRC's child care recipients. A legislature may look at this map and say, "we have X amount of money for child care services, so where are we going to focus this money?" GIS maps like this would help legislatures in that difficult decision-making process.
As part of CCRC's strategic plan, it's currently digitizing and tweaking analog forms, improving its data collection system and looking to post some GIS maps online for all to see.

The Ultimate Guide to Credit Cards
Copyright ©2015 Iron Horse Holdings, LLC
How Does Credit Card Processing Work?
There are quite a few steps that take place to process a payment when you make a purchase from a merchant with your credit card. Below is the four-step process that occurs each and every time your credit card is swiped in exchange for a good or service.
1. Authorization:
This is the only step that happens while you are at the register. By swiping the card, the merchant sends your credit card information to an acquirer, which is the messenger between the merchant and the credit card company. The acquirer sends the request to the credit card company or issuing bank. If the issuer says you have enough money in your account, it will tell the acquirer there are funds available to run the card, and give approval to the merchant. Long story short, someone asks if your card is good to go, and then someone else answers yes or no.
2. Batching:
At the end of the night, a merchant will gather all the transactions from the day and put them into a "batch." This batch is sent to the acquirer who then passes the information through to the issuers. This is done so the merchant can get the funds from the credit card companies and banks.

The Australian axes Adelaide bureau chief
News Corp is again wielding the axe in Adelaide, this time trimming the state office of The Australian.
The national broadsheet's Adelaide bureau chief Michael Owen told InDaily he has "accepted a voluntary redundancy and am seeking new opportunities".
It's understood Owen fell victim to more News Corp belt-tightening, and will depart the Waymouth St office next week. Owen joined The Australian in February 2009 as South Australian political reporter and was appointed bureau chief in November 2011.
Owen is known for his combative reporting and lively relationship with the former Labor Government.
Big changes @australian confirmed.@mjowen has left.
One of the most formidable journalists I have come across, with his own unique style.
— Tom Koutsantonis MP (@TKoutsantonisMP) March 25, 2019
Owen's departure leaves The Australian's Adelaide bureau with a single journalist, Luke Griffiths.
News Corp declined to comment to InDaily about the decision.
At its peak about a decade ago, the bureau boasted an estimated 10 positions, with a long list of senior journalists being based here.
The latest cut reflects ongoing media industry reorganisation as it grapples with digital and social media and revenue earning challenges which have cut a swathe through newsrooms across the country, and globe.

The Advertiser shed an estimated 25 editorial jobs last year, on top of a series of cuts to reporting, sub-editing and photographer ranks in the past few years.
The ABC has also cut an estimated 50 production, editing, journalist, sound library and other jobs from its Collinswood base since 2015 as it centralised operations in Sydney and focused on digital news.
The Media, Entertainment and Arts Alliance estimates more than 2500 journalist jobs have been axed across Australia since 2011.
The union told a Senate hearing last year that Fairfax alone had spent up to $500 million on redundancies between 2007 and 2017.
Fairfax ceased to exist as a media company last year, when Nine took over its mastheads and radio networks in a $4 billion merger.

Deeper and broodier than the '93 Faiveley - far more intense on the nose as well. Classic FM in the background gives it a touch of bombast.
Palate is savoury and rich. Is it over the hill a touch? Perhaps a bit of stewed stone fruits but still wonderful. This may have been a 5 star wine 6 or 7 years ago. Touch short on the finish. Still lovely, but a touch past it.

Before her Front-End Web Development course at General Assembly DC, Kaitlynn worked for a small non-profit on Capitol Hill. By merging her Economics degree, business development experience, and desire to have a career in web development, she landed a job at NASA as a Software Engineer.
What were you doing before your course?
Working at a very small non-profit on Capitol Hill, doing digital media production and content management.
What motivated you to enroll in FEWD?
Wanting to move forward in my career, and be more directly involved in tech innovation. I wanted the capacity to build something creative and functional, and I saw FEWD as a great foot hold to move towards that, and it has been.
Congratulations on your new job! How did you find your role at NASA?
I was looking for new career challenges, so had begun posting and looking online (with a resume that had a nice suite of concrete, tech skills like javascript, which I picked up at GA) and was contacted by a recruiter.
What is your role at NASA?
Software Developer. It's mainly a front-end web application development role.
Tell me about the hiring process.
A few interviews, one on site, with technical and other components. I think one of the things that really helped me was that I have a solid understanding of not just how you can do something they'd ask in a technical question, but why you'd choose one method over another, and the foundational concepts of relevant languages, and what is really going on under the hood of the code.
You had a very big transition between your current role and your new role. Can you tell me about that?
There will definitely be a learning curve, but it's one that I'm hungry to take on, and ready for. This job actually integrates my degree (Economics), real job experience (business/ product development) and the direction I want my career to go (web development) together nicely, and at a time when I was worried that they seemed to be diverging more and more.
In some ways, I'm not sure what to really expect, but I'm very confident that I've got the tools to address whatever comes at me. At some point you have to stop thinking about the safety you're walking away from and realize that the potential value of the risk you're taking on – even just in the trying, let alone success to follow – is worth much, much more.
How does the political presence in DC overlap with tech?
The government certainly has a need for tech innovation (and good developers!) just like everyone else, and DC tech has done a great job of incorporating government as a professional sector into the content of meetups, panels and everything else because it's such a huge part of the economy here. Plenty of tech companies are trying to serve the government, so there's definitely a connection in that way as well as others. It's easy to complain and think of government in terms of popular caricature of big bureaucracy, and for good reason, plenty of the time, but how will that ever change unless innovative people get involved and try to help? That said, I'd love to spend extended-time working in both public and the private sector throughout the rest of my career, and I think there are chances to transition between both, especially if you know how to network and play your cards right.
How has General Assembly been a resource for you post-course?
The structure and community I got at GA definitely sped up and helped me stay consistent in learning. I did quite a bit of self learning before (and after, including still Googling things every day!) but my progress was pretty slow and tough to be as consistent as I wanted to be without buddies to work alongside who shared my desire to grow professionally.
Who is your favorite teacher, and why?
Johnny Austin from iStrategy Labs taught my FEWD class and has been great at encouraging me to take steps that were a little scary, validating my work when it's good, giving me pointers when it's not so good yet, and mostly helping me find strategic approach and tactics to understand the building blocks of the technologies I want master, which has helped me really benefit from the best of being a self-learner and being active in the tech community.

Internet Freedom & Political Space
Internet Freedom & Political Space
Over the past decade, the Internet has become a battleground between repressive governments that would censor content and those who advocate free access for all. In 2011 the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor (DRL) at the Department of State asked RAND to assess the effect of Internet freedom on the relationship between civil society and elected officials worldwide, and to examine such questions as: Does Internet freedom make government more accountable to the people? If, so by which mechanisms? How does expanding freedom online affect political space offline, and in which countries will these effects be most visible? How can DRL maximize the impact of its ongoing Internet freedom initiatives?
This study was conducted during 2011–12 and focuses on the role of the Internet and social media during popular protests in 2011 in Egypt, Syria, China, and Russia. We compare the ways that different political contexts and informational environments altered the opportunities for online mobilization and how, subsequently, online activisms grew into offline mobilization. We also studied Radio Free Europe and Radio Liberty, aimed at the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe during the Cold War as a way of grounding Internet freedom within the broader context of information freedom. The goal of the study is to identify the mechanisms by which the freedom to browse, post, and share information online may transform state-society relations in nondemocratic regimes.
This analysis highlights several mechanisms through which open and free Internet can trigger political transformation. In fully authori-

Doug Peterson RIP.
As the America's Cup today went back to New-Zealand, the Yacht Designer Doug Peterson passed away. I remember when in 1995, after the victory of the N-Z boat in San-Diego, a design team he was involved with; he told me: "Was it a licking or was it a licking". Straight forward alright, and straight forward dedication to his goal of designing some of the most "bestest" I.O.R boats of the time.

A note before we start: We're acutely aware that this episode won't be everyone. If you aren't interested in the Board Game Geek Convention or how a convention of this caliber runs then you may want to skip the episode.
As promised, the guys at I, Geek had a sit down with the one and only guru of the Board Game Geek Convention, Mr. Jeff Anderson. We were given the opportunity to meet Jeff at his house which also happens to hold the massive BGG Library. It was a sight to behold indeed.
Before I forget, Jeff was kind enough to drop some pretty significant convention related news during the episode. You won't want to miss out.
Instead of discussing the interview in this article, we'll simply let the conversation speak for itself. However, a few things before we end. A special thanks to Jeff Anderson and his family for letting us visit with them for the afternoon. Our conversation was insightful and fun to say the least. Second, being able to see the hanger, or warehouse if you prefer, filled with a massive portion of board gaming was simply a sight to behold. If you ever get the chance, and Jeff is willing to have you out to his place, we recommend the visit. Lastly, we'll all be attending the Spring Con coming up here at the end of May. If you're attending and wish to have a game with us, we'd be happy to oblige. Simply drop us a message either here on the site or through Twitter and Facebook.
Happy Gaming!

A Tennessee pastor delivered a passionate rebuke of the leftist freakout on Home Depot.
After the home-improvement store's co-founder Bernie Marcus admitted he'd make President Trump's 2020 re-election campaign one of his beneficiaries, leftist temper tantrums broke out with many claiming they'd never shop there again.
My local HomeDepot was 2nd on my list of most visited stores behind Target. Third was IKEA (still suffering flashbacks from that)
I've refurbished several homes (fixer-uppers)&have spent ridiculous amounts in HD. I regret it now. Lowe's, here I come.#BoycottHomeDepot

In an impassioned minute-long tirade, Pastor Greg Locke of the Global Vision Bible Church predicts Home Depot will continue to thrive in the face of protests from leftists, which he notes probably don't even shop there.
Here's what I think about the stupid #BoycottHomeDepot deal. GOD BLESS AMERICA!!! pic.twitter.com/APWQy1zyb6
— Pastor Greg Locke (@pastorlocke) July 8, 2019
"First of all, Donald Trump is going to win by a landslide with or without Home Depot money," Pastor Locke begins his fiery rant.
"But I appreciate people that can't be bullied into the corner of silence by people that want to threaten them and boycott them."
"Their entire brand is on building stuff – the people that would believe in the hashtag #BoycottHomeDepot have never built one thing in the entirety of their life."
Others on social media also pointed out liberals boycotting the store have probably never set foot there – except of course for Antifa.
A bunch of people who've never used a screwdriver are boycotting Home Depot, which is kind of like me boycotting a yoga studio

Marcus told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution last month he plans to donate to Trump's re-election campaign because America's better off than it was six years ago.
"Now, do I agree with every move that he makes? No, I don't," Marcus said. "But the truth is he has produced more than anybody else. He has. If we look at this country, I would say that we are better off today than we were eight years ago or six years ago."

By Gareth Porter
WASHINGTON – In sharp contrast to the lionization of General David Petraeus by members of the US Congress during his testimony this week, Petraeus's superior, Admiral William Fallon, chief of the Central Command (CENTCOM), derided Petraeus as a sycophant during their first meeting in Baghdad in March, according to Pentagon sources familiar with reports of the meeting.
Fallon told Petraeus that he considered him to be "an ass-kissing little chickenshit" and added, "I hate people like that," the sources say. That remark reportedly came after Petraeus began the meeting by making remarks that Fallon interpreted as trying to ingratiate himself with a superior. That extraordinarily contentious start of Fallon's mission to Baghdad led to more meetings marked by acute tension between the two commanders. Fallon went on to develop his own alternative to Petraeus's recommendation for continued high levels of US troops in Iraq during the summer.

Most of the people on this region are just carrying this out to switch another foreign exchange because of their personal, as an example worldwide companies,that has to spend earnings and also other expenses in numerous nations around the world make use of forex as a method related to forex. However, most of the market is in fact comprising foreign currency traders, who imagine about motions in return rates, much like other people may well theorize on movements associated with discuss beliefs. Forex trading investors attempt to really benefit from in fact tiny variations in return costs.
Inside of foreign exchange there is very little or even absolutely no 'inside information'. Exchange price steps are generally a direct result actual financial techniques as well as logic after globally macro monetary problems.
Foreign currencies tend to be traded against the other person. Every pair of currencies consequently accocunts for a person item and it is typically pointed out XXX/YYY, in which YYY could be the ISO 4217 globally three-letter program code from the foreign currency into that the price of A single gadget associated with XXX currency will be portrayed. For instance, EUR/USD may be the price of the particular dinar expressed within Cash, such as One dollar Equates to 1.2045 dollar.
As opposed to stocks and commodity trade, foreign exchange is definitely an interbank, over-the-counter (Over-the-counter) industry which means there isn't any solitary common swap for particular forex trading set. Forex operates A day daily with the 7 days between individuals with Foreign exchange brokers, agents along with financial institutions, along with financial institutions in addition to banking institutions.

Inside EUR/USD cost of One.4238 any pip will be the '8' at the conclusion. Therefore the bid/ask estimate regarding EUR/USD may be One.4238/1.4239.
This kind of, obviously, doesn't apply to list customers. Most individual forex investors might industry utilizing a broker that may normally have a spread chosen as much as condition 3-20 pips (as a result inside our instance One.4237/1.4239 as well as A single.423/1.425). The particular agent will give their customers often millions of border, thereby aiding clients shelling out more cash across the bid/ask distribute. The brokers aren't governed through the U.Utes. Filing (since they do not market securities), in order that they aren't sure through the exact same boundary limitations simply because share brokers. They just don't typically price boundary curiosity, nonetheless given that forex offers must be paid out in 2 instances, they'll "resettle" open up jobs (again gathering your bid/ask distributed).
For the purpose of reading good benifit, Particular person forex investors usually work in the daytime as well as trade the particular evenings, creating better use of the market's One day extended investing day time.

A problem shared is a problem halved.
Every month, we will celebrate our #MindOurselves campaign in partnership with Butlers Chocolates with a special competition. To be in with a chance to win a luxury hamper from Butlers, firstly follow @theglossmag and @ButlersChocs on Instagram and then post a picture or video on Twitter or Instagram using the hashtags #ButlersChocolates and #MindOurselves, to show us how you are minding yourself and others.

Action Replay XBOX 1.42
Old versionsSee all
ActionReplay XBOX is an application that allows you to copy files to a memory card. Back when the XBOX was the most popular console, there were many uses for an application like this. The main one in my opinion was to modify save games with cheats and upload them to a memory card. Once you have those modified files on your memory card, you can copy them to your XBOX hard drive or run them on the memory card. This application actually comes in a CD that also comes with the memory card and an USB adapter that allows your computer to communicate with the device. If you have a modified console that can read multimedia files, you can also put those files on the memory card to read them on the console. Other than that, the whole application has no other purpose or goal. It is a simple memory card manager that will allow you to move files back and forth really easily. Most memory cards are only 16 megabytes in size, so you are really limited to small files, like game saves and pictures. The application runs great on Windows Vista.

I'M A Celebrity's Myles Stephenson has broken his silence after a brutal attack at celeb hangout Sheesh in Essex.
The Sun's Bizarre column exclusively revealed the 28-year-old was set upon by a gang of thugs while enjoying drinks with friends at showbiz haunt Sheesh in Chigwell, Essex, this week.
But taking to his Instagram Stories today, Myles reassured fans that he was OK.
Filming himself topless, the Rak-Su singer said: "Just a quick message to say thank you to everyone asking if I'm alright and if my friends are alright.
"As you can see I'm perfectly fine there's not a bruise on my body. We are good.
"My friends are all good as well, me and my boys weren't hurt. That's all you need to know.
"We're good and we're healthy."
Onlookers say as many as nine men took exception to where Myles had decided to sit, and promptly urged him to move by shoving their arms into his face.
One witness said: "It blew up in a couple of seconds. Myles seemed to have sat down with his friends in an area where these other guys seemed to think they had already reserved. Rather than talk about it quietly, they went straight in for a fight.
"A few seconds later Myles had been whacked several times in the face and body and his friends had stepped in to try and help protect him too, but they were massively outnumbered.
Most Read in TV & Showbiz
"It was awful to watch and a ridiculous overreaction given what had happened.
"Security quickly intervened and had to manhandle the gang out of the bar before somebody got seriously hurt, and then kept Myles' group inside because they were kicking off outside.
"Glass bottles were being smashed and some cars were damaged too — people were calling for the police."
Sources say Myles was shaken but bravely stood his ground. A pal added: "Nobody could understand what had started it or whether they targeted Myles deliberately."

Apple (AAPL): 3G iPhone A Month Out
One of the things that has kept some consumers from buying an Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) iPhone is that it only runs on AT&T's (NYSE: T) 2.5G network. That makes the device's connection to the internet slow.
Now, the research arm of a major firm, Bank of America, says that the Apple iPhone 3G product will be out in a few weeks. According to AppleInsider "financial analyst Scott Craig points to channel investigations which show an iPhone capable of faster, third-generation cellular Internet access produced in small numbers in May."
The product would not only bring in consumers who want a handset with a faster connection. It could help Apple crack the business market. Most RIM (NASDAQ: RIMM) Blackberry products already have 3G capacity. Apple is targeting the Blackberry as it tries to take a piece of the enterprise market.
A 3G version of the iPhone could boost sales significantly and help Apple's numbers in the June quarter and beyond. It would be the largest single change in the handset since its release.

Kevin Harvick's 'character-building year' still ends with title shot
Kevin Harvick and his No. 4 Stewart-Haas Racing team have practically come full circle since the start of the 2019 NASCAR Cup Series season but it's been a bumpy ride.
While Harvick has ended up in a familiar place – among the four drivers who will compete for the series championship at Homestead – the trip there has been unlike any of Harvick's previous four.
The 2019 season was already going to be taxing enough with the introduction of a new aero package that would greatly alter the style of racing, particularly in what had been seen of late on intermediate tracks.
When the season began, some teams were off and running in the right direction while others struggled. Harvick's team was among the latter.
Read Also:
It wasn't as if the No. 4 team was performing poorly, just not at the standard which they have shown in recent seasons. In the season's first 10 races, Harvick led laps in just three of them.
"I think I'll take as much responsibility for that at the beginning of the year than anything," Harvick's crew chief, Rodney Childers, said following Harvick's win Sunday at Texas. "We looked at a lot of different things going into the year. We went to the Vegas test, and we decided to go different ways on different things.
"You know, obviously you have to pick a direction, right, and we picked a direction, and it wasn't the right direction, but you've got cars built that are six weeks out and then you've already went through six, seven races before you can even react to anything.
"Then, once you react to that, you've got to figure it out. You've got to figure out how to drive it, you've got to figure out how to set it up. So, at that point then you're 10 weeks out."
The good news for No. 4 team was even though it wasn't winning, it continued to run well enough to remain high in the series standings and in no danger of missing the playoffs.
At times, the issues that arose were frustrating to get a handle on, but more often than not, Harvick was still managing top-10 finishes.
"You can't just change things on the fly. You can't rebuild cars. As we've learned, obviously all of our drivers got better, our teams, the set-ups, all that stuff," Childers said. "You want to win as many races as you can just like last year, but on the other hand, you need to be right in the second half of the year.
"It was a big learning curve for all of us and something that we just had to work through."
Getting back to Victory Lane
And once they did, the results began showing much more dramatically.
Harvick earned his first win of the season at New Hampshire in July, out-dueling Denny Hamlin down the stretch.
That was followed by another win three weeks later at Michigan with a similar late-race flurry. Three weeks after that came a much more Harvick-esque dominating performance in a win at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
Harvick performed well in the playoffs (his worst finish was 17th at Talladega) but didn't push through to Victory Lane again until Sunday at Texas, again in dominating fashion. This win brought a much bigger prize – automatic advancement into the Championship 4 at Homestead.
Once again, Harvick will have a chance to compete for a series championship in the winner-takes-all format.
The journey back to Homestead-Miami Speedway, however, was a trying one.
"I don't think we've run as well as we've probably wanted to run week-in and week-out compared to the things that we expect," Harvick said. "But this particular year has been neat for me to sit back and watch the evolution of how we progressed with the race cars, how the conversations have progressed, how my theories and things that I think are right and wrong have changed.
"It's such a process of going to all these different race tracks. You know, there's just a lot of choices of what you can do to the car and the things that you do, and not being the dominant car on the race track has made us work harder.
"It's been a good character-building year to have to battle in order to get yourself in position."
And here they are, right back in the Championship 4.

Barguna district unit of Awami League (AL) has temporarily expelled six of its Taltali upazila unit leaders, including the party's dissident candidate in June 18 upazila parishad election, for campaigning against AL candidate.
The decision came from an emergency meeting held on June 13 night, said Golam Sarwar Tulu, senior organising secretary of the district unit.
The district unit will also pursue permanent expulsion of the six Taltali leaders at the central committee of AL, he added.
The expelled Taltali AL leaders are Moniruzzaman Mintu -- a candidate in the June 18 election and vice-president of the upazila unit and president of Jubo League's upazila unit; Sultan Farazee, forests and environmental affairs secretary of the same unit; and Dulal Farazee, Alamgir Mia alias Alamgir Munshi, Nazir Hossain alias Kalu Patwary and Abul Kalam Sikder -- all members of the unit.
The dissident candidate, Moniruzzaman, said he did not receive any paper with regards to the expulsion order. "If they have taken such a decision, it would be wrongful and against the constitution [of the party]."
Meanwhile, the AL-nominated candidate Rejbi-Ul-Kabir Jomaddar at a press conference on Friday claimed that Moniruzzaman and his men attacked his supporters inside the party office in the upazila.

Its official: YouView, the BBC-backed IPTV project, won't see the light of day until early 2012.
Initial plans were for a commercial launch before the end of 2010, but this start date was delayed as the project underwent scrutiny and eventual approval by the BBC's governing body the BBC Trust.
Plans were re-set for a launch this spring, with later noises by the project's leaders indicating that a summer 2011 launch was more likely.
YouView executives now say the launch will be further delayed by six months, in the light of reports of continuing technical difficulties.
It's a damaging, but not yet fatal, blow to the project's chances of success.
In a statement, YouView chief executive Richard Halton said: "Our focus has always been to deliver a product to consumers that is right, but not rushed. Creating a truly open TV platform that will bring consumers increased choice has required significant technological innovation. Our timings for the launch reflect the scale and complexity of this project."
YouView was forced to make the announcement following a statement on Tuesday by one of the project's backers, the ISP TalkTalk.
It said: "The project schedule is kept under review, but the development of YouView is progressing well and all the partners remain committed to creating a high-quality TV experience for customers."
With connected TV products coming to market from a range of manufacturers including Sony, LG, and Samsung, as well as the 2011 rollout of Virgin Media's TV service powered by TiVo, any delay will increase the competition for YouView's target audience—roughly the 10 million U.K. homes with DTT service Freeview.
However the market for connected TV is nascent and, provided YouView can overcome its technical hurdles and maintain harmony among its backers, the project should still make a substantial impact on the market in 2012.
It will benefit from cross-platform marketing on terrestrial TV channels and the impetus for sales in the run-up to the London Olympics 2012.
YouView still expects trials to take place later this year.

The Wizards intend to bring back restricted free agent shooting guard Nick Young this summer, but they could use the 18th pick to possibly find a replacement, if for some reason they can't reach an agreement. Jordan Crawford played well toward the end of the season as Young sat out with a left knee injury, but the Wizards could certainly complement John Wall with a few more shooters and scorers.
The Wizards are considering Leonard at the sixth spot, and he could improve his position if he can slow down Hamilton in workouts. Hamilton likely won't be around when the Wizards pick at No. 18, but he could be an intriguing option has a surprising slide out of the lottery. Maryland center Jordan Williams, Oakland center Keith Benson, Hofstra guard Charles Jenkins and Michigan guard Darius Morris will also participate in Tuesday's workout.
Hamilton, a 6-foot-9 native of Compton, Calif., averaged 18.6 points as a sophomore and become a more disciplined shooter last season with the Longhorns. He has been training with Rob McClanahan in Los Angeles with fellow draft prospects Trey Thompkins of Georgia, Kentucky point guard Brandon Knight and Morehead State forward Kenneth Fared. He described himself at the NBA combine as "a Danny Granger type."
Although he is known for his scoring ability, Hamilton said he is more versatile than he may have shown in college. "My passing has been very underrated. Shooting the ball from midrange, one, two dirbble pull ups, once I start working out, people will be able to see it. I can post up, do different things. I can rebound. People don't know how explosive I am. I didn't really show that at Texas."
The 6-5 Brooks is in Indiana on Tuesday and is expected to return to action after twisting an ankle in New York last week. He was the NCAA second-leading scorer behind Jimmer Fredette last season, at 24.6 points per game. He roasted Georgetown for 43 points and 10 rebounds in an 83-81 last February and then dropped an NCAA-best 52 points on Notre Dame a few weeks later. He has a 7-1 wingspan and huge hands and could possibly sneak his way into the top 20. "Ever since I was young, I was always the guy with the long legs and long arms," he said during the combine. "I'm not the most athletic guy, but with my long arms and my ball-handling ability, I'm able to get to the rim a little bit easier."
He was a bit of a one-man show at Providence, and he joked that a lot the questions that teams have about him are because his team had few offensive options. "People say, 'He's a volume shooter. He shoots too much.' You ask my coach. He'll probably say I didn't shoot enough," he said. "With me being the only scorer on the team, carrying the load of a young team, I felt like it was my job to try to take the game over. That's just the will to win in me. I think one of the questions is, 'Can I knock down the open jumper?' Obviously I couldn't answer that at Providence, because everybody at the gym knew I was shooting."
Thompson has been leaving an impression with his shooting at every stop, which may make it harder for him to around at No. 18. The 6-6 son of former 1978 No. 1 overall pick Mychal Thompson -- a college teammate of Flip Saunders -- shot 40 percent from 3-point range last season and could greatly help a team that ranked 28th in three-point shooting last season. "I think I can have a really good impact with any team I'm with. Every team needs a shooter and I think I can be a great scorer off the ball, coming off screens, and spacing the floor," Thompson said. "I'm the kind of the player, you can't leave open that much on the perimeter. I think I can help a team with my scoring prowess and my knowledge of the game. I'm trying to use that shot to my advantage."
He said he would like to pattern his game after Ray Allen and Kevin Martin. "They are great shooters and complete guards. I think I can be at all-star level someday, with my ability to score."
The junior guard accepted responsibility at the NBA combine for his suspension last season after getting cited for marijuana possession. "It was a humbling experience, I learned a lot from it," he said. "It was bad judgment on my part. I plan on never making that mistake again."

"Happy are those whose way is blameless, who walk in the law of the LORD.
Happy are those who keep his decrees, who seek him with their whole heart, who also do no wrong, but walk in his ways.
You have commanded your precepts to be kept diligently.
O that my ways may be steadfast in keeping your statutes!
Then I shall not be put to shame, having my eyes fixed on all your commandments.
I will praise you with an upright heart, when I learn your righteous ordinances.
I will observe your statutes; do not utterly forsake me." (Psalm 119:1-8)
I have started, or re-started, a habit and practice. At night when I am tired and feeling low, I read some of the psalms. I just "happened" (because I do not believe those things are really random in the life of the Spirit) Psalm 71 and it comforted me greatly. The next night I read further on in the psalms and found comfort there too. I had not gotten to Psalm 119 but I would look for it on those nights when I need comfort and support.
Many years ago I used to read the psalms as a spiritual discipline and practice, but these days it is more of a spiritual support than a rigid discipline and practice. I think actually that is quite natural and normal. We talk about spiritual "discipline" and "practice" as if it were exercises to keep us from getting "flabby". There is much truth to that, but it is not to be a rigid regime as if we were to do 50 sit ups before bed. At day's end it is more like a comforting bedtime story and being tucked in. In the morning, before the day begins it is a morning coffee and/or breakfast to help us get started in the day. My point is we should come to scripture reading as a reprieve and a delight, not a onerous task. The Lord does not come to us as if it were a terrible chore. The Lord comes to us with delight and love, and we are received that way. May you, beloved reader, approach scripture reading as way to approach the Divine, with love and delight. And the Divine will rejoice at your companionship. Selah!

Ryan: No vote on gun bills that ignore due process
....I thought "What a shame this even has to be clarified."
House Speaker Paul Ryan on Wednesday night dismissed the Democratic takeover of the House floor as a "publicity stunt," and said Republicans wouldn't be goaded into allowing a vote on bills that violate the Constitution.
"We're not going to take away a citizen's constitutional rights without due process," he said on CNN.
Democrats want the GOP to allow a vote on bills to expand background checks, and to prevent people from buying a gun if they are on an federal terrorism watch list. But Republicans say those lists are created without giving the people on those lists any chance to defend themselves.
In this instance, the Republicans have the ACLU as an ally, in particular against an amendment proposed by Sen. Susan Collins (R(ino)-ME).
"The ACLU strongly urges you to vote against the Collins Amendment because it uses the error-prone and unfair watchlist system, along with vague and overbroad terms, as a predicate for a proceeding to deny a firearms permit," the ACLU officials wrote in the letter. "The Collins Amendment relies on both the No Fly List, by codifying its criteria, and the Selectee List, by direct reference."
Naturally this serves as an opportunity for Democrats to engage in hyperbole........
.@ChrisMurphyCT said it right: The @SenateGOP have decided to sell weapons to ISIS.— Elizabeth Warren (@SenWarren) June 20, 2016
.....and cheap theatrics.
Rep. John Lewis and a group of his fellow Democrats took to the House floor late Wednesday morning to stage a sit-in and are vowing to stay for the foreseeable future. Their goal? Pressure Republican leadership to hold votes on gun control legislation, something they have not done in the wake of this month's mass shooting in Orlando, Florida.
Democrats are staging a sit-in on the House floor. They refuse to leave until our Constitution replaces due process with secret lists.— Justin Amash (@justinamash) June 22, 2016
Finally, this pictorial illustration pretty much sums up the whole debate:

In the pros: Dineen will debut with ECHL Elmira tonight
March 30, 2012 Leave a comment
Former Tiger captain Nick Dineen has signed with the Elmira (N.Y.) Jackals as expected and is on the roster for the ECHL team entering its final two regular-season games this weekend.
Dineen said the coaches told him he will make his debut Friday night at home against the Reading (Pa.) Royals. The Jackals confirmed that a few minutes ago. Here is a link to the live video feed. It costs money (probably $8).
He signed an amateur tryout deal with Elmira lasting the rest of the season, which could be a while for the Atlantic Division champions.
The team is connected with the Ducks and Senators and their AHL affiliates, Binghamton and Syracuse, where Gabe Guentzel plays.
Dineen becomes a free agent this summer, when I would expect he will be invited to an AHL training camp.

The Lowdown
Where: The Southbank, London
Theme: Relaxed
Photographer: Next Chapter Photography
Neill and Iggy met in Devon after connecting on a dating app. Neill grew up there with Iggy having spent his whole life in London where they now live together. They lived apart when the engagement took place, and asked Jen, from Next Chapter Photography, to capture their love and relationship, with a dedicated engagement shoot…
"We've been in love for eight months now and will be getting married in Whatlington, on Iggy's parents' property;
"We got engaged when we were living apart. I was still living in Bath and travelled up to London as much as I could to be with Iggy. I was on a visit and we'd had an amazing day out in London together; we had spent hours wandering around the city and visited the James Bond exhibition at the London Film Museum (mainly because I'm a huge fan of Bond but also because the theme song to The Spy Who Loved Me (Nobody Does It Better) is our song); and that night, when we were in bed together cuddling and chatting, I proposed! It just came out!"
"I had been thinking about the perfect way to propose to him but in that moment I knew he was the perfect man for me and I couldn't help but ask him there and then. I don't think he believed me at first, but thankfully he said 'yes'!
"We both hugged each other and cried tears of happiness. I wish I had done a more elaborate proposal but he tells me it was perfect. We went shopping for matching rings the next time I was in London and I let him choose them. I feel so lucky to have found him and cannot wait to see what our future holds.
"We chose to hold our engagement shoot on the Southbank, as it's our favourite place to walk."

Good Evening Gators!
This week at Sam Sherratt Author Lana Button, an Early Childhood Educator in Halton and former actress, presented to our JK-Grade 3's in the Learning Commons. Her presentation was lively and fun. She read her picture books Willow Whispers and Willow Finds a Way to our Gators and left us with 3 important messages:
1. Everybody has a voice and your voice matters.
2. It is important to give everybody a second chance because we all make mistakes.
3. We can all help one another by taking action and getting help. Some of our friends also made "magic microphones" .
Thank you to Ms. Belford for organising this great learning opportunity.

Some of our grade 6 students went on a class trip this week. Thank you to Mr. Charrey, Ms. Litt and Mr. Kerschner for organising this experience. Here is what one of our students has to say about their trip:
On Tuesday October 16, 2018 some grade fives and all grade sixes went on a field trip and walked to the First Ontario Arts Center. The day was so much fun! The students made coil pots with clay, they did this by making long thin cylinders and shaping them into creative pot designs using balls, swirls, triangles and more. The students learned that when you start the pot you have to make a small circular or rectangular base. The clay the students used was a special type because it did not require heating in a kiln. Students had a great time at the Arts Center and would love to go back! By: Madison Carey 5\6-1

Truth be told I have always been a synthesizer. I started learning yoga in Iyengar Yoga, spent a lot of time in Bikram Yoga and some time in Ashtanga Vinyasa, before I got involved in Anusara Yoga in 1999. And anyone who knows me knows that even as a licensed Anusara Yoga teacher I still studied other systems and even took a trip in 2007 to Pune, India to study at the Iyengar Yoga Institute.
The weird thing is that I also love and admire purists and when I am in their world, I play by their rules. For instance, you will never see me in a Bikram class, "doing my own thing" or in an Ashtanga Vinyasa class, "being creative" or in an Iyengar Yoga class "expressing my individuality." Nope, not me. I get the value of pure, undiluted teachings from their source. I really do. Totally into it.
It's just that I didn't do it that way. My path hasn't been a purist path. My path has had twist, turns, circuitous wanderings and repeat visits back to previously charted territory only to see the same teachings again with new eyes. I am so pitta that the purist path seriously appeals to me on one level and many-a-day I wish that was the way it had gone for me. I certainly think it would make marketing myself and my teaching a whole lot easier since I cringe every time I am forced to describe my style as "eclectic." But well, it is the truth and if 2011 and 2012 taught me anything it was the value of admitting the truth to myself. And in the next breath, I have to say, I am pretty happy to have had a diverse yoga education. So, it depends on the day.
Anyhow, we had a great intensive. My personal intention for the weekend had to do with community and establishing my momentum for a new cycle that would allow me to bring forward key pieces from the past and leave behind what no longer serves me. To me, that is an important theme that emerged toward the end of my year. I feel it as a coming full circle at the end of the year and a lovely quality to invoke at the beginning of a new cycle.
The funny thing is that I even with all the challenge and heartbreak of the last year, I found myself reflecting on 2012 as a really great year. I can go back into a lot of the daily moments and remember certain difficulties and yet the sum total of all of that difficulty served me so that I am sitting here now, feeling stronger, clearer, more courageous and more aware. Adversity is a great training ground and if I were to sum it all up, I'd have to say that Rumi said it best in his poem, Lovers:
Stretch your arms and take hold the cloth of your clothes
with both hands. The cure for pain is in the pain.
Good and bad are mixed. If you don't have both,
you don't belong with us.
