9.15.17: Your morning briefing
Show more sharing options

Welcome to the PaymentsSource Morning Briefing, delivered daily. The information you need to start your day, including top headlines from PaymentsSource and around the Web:
Face/off: When describing the new Face ID system in the iPhone X, Apple cautioned that there may be some situations — such as an evil twin — where users want to disable the feature. But what if a user needs to disable the feature on a moment's notice, such as when handing the phone over to a mugger who could then unlock the device by pointing the screen at its rightful owner? Apple took that scenario into account, and created a way to quickly disable Face ID, according an email from Craig Federighi, Apple's senior vice president of software engineering. The email, as quoted by The Verge, states that the Face ID feature can be turned off by covering the screen and pressing the buttons on either side of the phone. Users can also avoid unlocking the phone by avoiding eye contact. The process is reminiscent of the so-called "cop button" in iOS 11, which allows the user to turn off Touch ID after pressing the home button five times, The Verge reports; the nickname comes from the concern that police may force a suspect to unlock their phone with Touch ID or — as happened in one case in Michigan — use a 3D printer to duplicate a murder victim's fingerprint.
The card is in the mail: MoviePass, the startup that sells movie tickets for a flat subscription fee, is able to operate at hostile theaters because those theaters are obligated to accept its Mastercard debit card. So it's problematic that MoviePass can't get cards in the hands of all its new customers. There is now a two- to three-week delay in mailing out cards, Engadget reports, and some of those cards are going out in the wrong order. The alternative for customers is to buy e-tickets, but only a few theater chains support that format; AMC, the largest theater chain in the U.S., refuses to partner with MoviePass and has lashed out against the startup for allegedly de-valuing movie tickets.
Hong Kong wallet draws funds: NewMargin Capital is the lead investor in a $115 round in TNG fintech, a Hong Kong startup that's building a digital wallet platform. KBR Capital Partners also participated in the round, which brings TNG's value to $565 million, according to the China Money Network, which reports it's among the largest Series A funded startup in Hong Kong. TNG supports global money transfers, P-to-P payments, foreign exchange transactions and bill payments. It also recently entered a collaboration with 7-11 in Hong Kong to allow topups or withdrawals at more than 900 locations.
ICO for student housing: Universities often spark payments innovation, and a new initiative will use cryptocurrency to fund student housing. KexGill will conduct an initial coin offering from Sept. 15 to Oct. 14 to produce a cryptocurrency called KexCoin. KexGill will buy back the KexCoins, returning 50% of the profits to the investors and applying the proceeds to expand its portfolio of university housing. KexGill has about $140 million in total assets. ICOs have become increasingly popular as virtual currencies have risen in value in the past year, though there are some challenges for the model. The most notable recent pushback has come in China, where the Chinese government has banned ICOs.
From the Web
Alibaba testing face recognition technology
China Daily | Fri Sep 15, 2017 - Two units under internet giant Alibaba Group Holding Ltd are working in tandem to test facial recognition technology that will allow users to unlock delivery drop boxes. Cainiao Network Technology Co Ltd, an Alibaba-backed courier aggregator, is promoting such an application to its partner delivery firms and parcel pickup facility providers in a test run in Shanghai, the company said during a customer conference in Shanghai on Thursday. The technology is provided by Ant Financial Services Group, Alibaba's fintech subsidiary, which since September has enabled customers to pay by literally flashing a smile in a KFC store in Hangzhou, where Alibaba is headquartered.
Didi adds Apple Pay support across core mobility services
TechCrunch | Fri Sep 15, 2017 - China's ride-hailing giant Didi is this week adding support for Apple Pay to its core personal mobility services — including Didi Premier, Didi Express, Didi Luxe and ofo, a partner station-less bike-rental service also powered by an app. Apple Pay is the mobile payment system baked into iOS, which lets users authenticate payments with a fingerprint biometric (and soon via Face ID — Apple's new facial biometric feature in the iPhone X). Didi already supported other iOS features — such as ride-hailing by using Siri from within the Maps app, and via the Apple Watch. It says it now supports payment through WeChat Pay, Alipay, Apple Pay, QQ Wallet, international credit cards and CMB OneNet Service for core services.
Dems propose data security bill after Equifax hack
The Hill | Thu Sep 14, 2017 - Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.) introduced legislation Thursday that would press data broker companies, including recently breached credit report company Equifax, to implement better privacy and security practices. "We need to shed light on this 'shadow' industry of surreptitious data collection that has amassed covert dossiers on hundreds of millions of Americans," Markey said of his "The Data Broker Accountability and Transparency Act" in a press release. The Equifax breach gave hackers potential access to the personal information of as many as 143 million Americans. Though best known for credit reports, Equifax is also a data broker, selling the data it amasses to advertisers to aid in targeted advertisements and services. The bill, co-sponsored by Sens. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.), Al Franken (D-Minn.) and Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.), would mandate "comprehensive" privacy and security programs at data brokers and allow the public to opt out of having their data included in data sales. The FTC would be in charge of enforcement.

In the digital era, can products become their own merchants?
Despite lowering barriers and eliminating borders for commerce, the internet still makes it clunky comparison-shop for products across multiple sites. It's even clunkier when the consumer wants to fill an order with items from multiple merchants.
Artificial intelligence, blockchain make a powerful team for payments innovation
In the world of financial services and payments technology, a growing asset is artificial intelligence (AI), which is capable of completing tasks with limited human oversight.
Can Amazon make a tech hub out of Whole Foods?
In late August, Whole Foods started selling Echos as soon as it completed its sale to the e-commerce giant. It may seem like an odd item to stock at a grocery store, but there's a solid strategy behind it.
Vantiv, Visa Direct partner to speed up merchant payments
Rather than waiting one to three days for funds through the Automated Clearing House system, merchants will be able to receive settlement payments straight to their debit cards within minutes through a partnership between Visa and the processor Vantiv.

I hear the still small voice. Call it intuition or the Holy Spirit. For me recently it has gotten much more distinguishable. But do I always listen to it? No, I don't. Maybe it's because I don't trust it? Maybe its because I think its just my own unhinged thoughts. Maybe its because it goes against my head-strong will? But I am learning that it is right, and I can trust it.
It warned me about a place that I stayed. Somehow I just knew that something dark lay ahead before I went there and that I would need to leave in a hurry. Did I listen to this? Yes, I heard it loud and clear, but did I choose to make other plans? No, I didn't. And now I sit in wake of the consequences and the ruins of an ended friendship. I did have my doubts from the beginning, but I guess I just ignored them for the sake of what seemed convenient. I will listen and heed that intuition next time. I am saddened by an ended friendship, but I will take this lesson to heart, and listen to the warning signs in the future.
"Look, I am sending you out as sheep among wolves. So be as shrewd as snakes and harmless as doves"Matthew 10: 11-1
On the the flip-side, I am loving this new life. I have been making new friends and great connections. People have been so helpful, and I am being handed work left and right without even looking for it. I even had a guy I just met surfing help me fix my fin with all the tools he already had. God is so good, and I am so incredibly blessed! I am reminded of my time in Taiwan, all the right people came into my life at the right times, I had everything I needed, and I now have some awesome lasting friendships.

The problem is that whenever I try to login to the 32 Channel NVR with built in 16 channel POE from my Samsung Galaxy S4 using the TechproSS Lite app, it keeps saying "Login Timed out" and if i keep trying it then locks the user saying "User Blocked" I am using the Admin account and i am on the same LAN as the NVR.
I can access the NVR from a web browser on my computer but it just wont work on my phone, I tried calling support but the guy was a puzzled and told me to purchase the Plus version of the software to get it to work, that in turn led me to more problems, i cannot find it on Google play by searching for it but when i goggled it however, that's when i find and follow the link right back to Google Play store, When i now try to purchase it, its saying that the software is not compatible with my Galaxy S4.
Please help, I don't understand why the software which was supposed to work with the hardware i purchased is not working, to top it off I have to pay for a pro version to get it to work (Which i am willing to do but i think its ridiculous) and make matters worse, Google is saying it is not compatible with my device when it obviously is, plus its nearly impossible to find it on the Google play store.
PS. the website wont upload my screenshot of the problem, Ive attached a link to the images.
Sorry to hear you are having this issue. This is very uncomment to happen specially when you have access to the unit from the web. can you please tell me how are you typing the username and password? Also please PM me the external address if the unit is accessible for the web also the username and password so we can tested here.

Independence justified is an entire package of political, social, and economic assertions which we must make and have been making not only to the unconverted, but also to the converted. We must make the effort to instil in each member of the movement that England's politics are foreign politics, that they are inimical to our interests. Austerity imposed on Scotland – and on England – by Westminster not only breaks down the individual. It attacks the fabric of the family and the community, all of the necessary supports the individual requires to thrive and to be a productive member of society.
Convenient Fiction
This is the extraordinary power we are handing to these soft Noes. We are casting aside the independence and the new state that could be in favour of an empty IOU from soft Noes who, we may well suspect, we have simply imagined and reified. Yes, you read that right: It is my conviction that these soft Noes are phantasms. Figments of our imaginations. Ghosts. Sure, in a nation of 5.4 million people with 3,925,800 registered voters there are bound to be some ditherers – some.
National Pride
Cat Boyd – writer and "internationalist" – gave us another horrifying example of this pitiful self-loathing attitude at the weekend when she posted to her Twitter page a short video featuring an ad by the Scotland Is Now campaign, a campaign designed to attract tourism and foreign investment to the country, with her own comment: "peak nationalism." As small-minded, xenophobic, and potentially violent supporters of Brexit were marching through the streets of London trailing effigies of hanged politicians behind them, Boyd was doing her best to smear an effort to project Scotland...
Brace Yourself, Effie
Her depiction of the European Union as a new threat from the continent; as an existential battle against Euro-Nazism, is no exaggeration. The featured image of the blog post is nothing less than an updated version of the Dad's Army map – the one with little union jack arrows being chased out of Europe by swastika arrows. In her map Great Britain (Mmm)TM is surrounded by the evil EU empire on all sides, forever dug-in in its perennially entrenched salient. Her monomaniacal representation of Europe, however, betrays her vast ignorance of history.
Answering the Westminster Question
More Scots than ever are of the opinion that, so long as Scotland is a member of the British union state, pro-secessionist parties should follow a policy of abstentionism – having our elected MPs refuse to take up their seats in the House of Commons, until we have secured our independence. Yesterday on the blog I made my own position on the Westminster question clear; writing that "we cannot – as a nation – hope for democracy at Westminster."
On the Reader-Censor
Thanks in large part to the way the internet and social media work we have been herded into tribes of opinion, rarely coming face-to-face – or "interfacing" – with people of radically differing opinions. Trends in the development of identity politics have perceptively homogenised our tribal opinions, making us less independent thinkers than subscribers to our chosen tribal groupthink. What this means is that people are increasingly finding themselves pressured into adopting a package of positions so as to conform to the expectations of the collective.
Britain's Most Influential Women
The internet however, as Sky News has been reminded, is a bit of a swine. Readers in Scotland clocked what was going on and sounded the alarm on social media. Over the weekend Twitter and Facebook did what they do best, and folk all over Scotland rallied behind their favourite people. From their place of obscurity they quickly shot to the summit, with Scots voting in their tens of thousands and sharing the news to the furthest reaches of the internet. By Sunday afternoon supporters in Wales, across parts of England, and all over the island of Ireland were joining in.
Thinking Small: Critiquing the Media in Scotland
So Mike Small thinks we're being terribly childish in our "one dimensional" critique of the establishment media. Bully for him. Right now it is just a statement of fact that we can't do everything. It is not, as Angry Scotland once suggested on Twitter, that we independence-first types want to put all other issues – as pressing as they are – to the "back of the bus." As grown-ups we just know that nothing will be achieved at all if we do not first win the most urgent front in the media war – independence from Britain and a proper Scottish media.

The telescopic belt conveyor is a solution for handling the loading and unloading of parcels. When extended, it minimises the need for operators to carry products manually. The drop-off or take-away point can be placed directly at the operator's side when needed through a simple joystick movement.
Extension and retraction are fully motor-driven, with a fast response to operator actions. Various body lengths and extensions can be implemented to allow access to the full length of the transport vehicle. The conveyor can also switch between indexing mode and fast transport for buffering functionality.
Similar to the telescopic belt conveyor, the roller model also allows operators to move the drop-off and take-away points as required. Powered extension and retraction are also optional. It is possible to have the telescopic roller conveyor mounted in a fixed position dedicated to one dock, while the motorised version offers the flexibility to move from one dock to another.
The benefits of telescopic conveyors include:

What's Trending in Retail in the Holiday Season Run-Up?
Wasn't it just yesterday that we were rushing to pick up last-minute gifts and throw some festive lights on our home? Well, believe it or not, we're now closer to 2016's holiday season than the past one.
The first half of the year was full of excitement for brands, with evolutions like Target's store redesign, the launch of online dollar stores and the biggest sales gains in the past year. But there are a few trends that have popped up over and over again in the retail industry that we can't overlook. These increasingly present factors are shaping the way retailers of all kinds move forward through the latter half of the year.
Many retailers are already taking advantage of technology like retail apps and beacons to increase sales and promote brand loyalty. But some brands are now taking retail tech to a whole new level. Stores like John Lewis, Lowe's, and Rebecca Minkoff are leading the pack in in-store tech advances in incredible ways.

Proper maintenance can extend the life of your boat, reduce the need for costly repairs, and help ensure the safety of your passengers.
Here's a basic checklist of steps to ensure your boat is in great shape all year long.
Wash your boat regularly to prevent the long-term effects of environmental wear and tear. Routine waxing and the use of an anti-fouling paint can also help protect your boat from the elements. Consider using environmentally-safe products whenever possible.
Invest in a cover to keep your boat clean and free from dirt, water, falling leaves and bird droppings, all of which cause damage if left unchecked. A cover can also prevent UV rays from breaking down hoses and fading carpets and upholstery.
Proper boat maintenance means being actively involved in all aspects of your watercraft. Keep an eye on everything from loose fittings, to fraying ropes, to any other areas of your watercraft that may need special attention or replacement. Many times, damages incurred to a boat could easily have been prevented by following a preventative boat maintenance routine.
Check to ensure that it is properly charged and has the correct fluid levels. Always keep your battery clean, as dampness and dirt can drain your battery.
Flush your engine after every outing, and check everything from your fuel tanks to the clamps on your fuel line for rust, damage or corrosion. Check your oil for correct levels, proper filtration, and cleanliness. Finally, remember to keep an eye on your engine's cooling system to make sure it's functioning correctly.
A crucial aspect of boat maintenance is ensuring that your bilge pump is functioning properly. There's not much that can cause more irreparable damage to a boat than having it sink. In the event that you need to use your pump, you'll want to make sure that your battery system contains enough power to run the pump for a prolonged period of time.
Many boating failures occur as a result of corroded electrical systems, so keeping electrical components dry should be a regular part of your watercraft maintenance routine. Electrical fittings can be protected with a water-repellent, non-conductive grease or corrosion inhibitor.

On the Edge of Wrong 2011
On the Edge of Wrong is a festival for exploratory music in Cape Town (South Africa). The festival is six years old, and for the second time in history, a sister festival is held in Oslo (Norway) (last one in 2008). If you happen to be in Oslo 4 - 7 May, you know where to go.
The motto seems to be "Fire walk with me", and the musicians are mostly Norwegian an South African. I have heard only a couple of them, guitar player Morten Minothi Kristiansen and singer Stine Janvin Motland (both of them worth checking out!), but we did visit last year´s festival in Cape Town!

Kristen Stewart's supermodel girlfriend Stella Maxwell has taken social media by a storm as she posed for a sizzling photoshoot in a see-through outfit. With slits running as high as her hip, the lingerie model showed off her toned physique in the lacy black dress, while sending fans into a frenzy.
The 27-year-old Belgian beauty even shared the glimpse of the sunny shoot with her Instagram followers. Alongside the snap, she shared, "wrappeddd thank youuu @zoeygrossman."
Oozing extreme body confidence, Maxwell struck a high fashion pose in the picture, leaning on her back in the meadows with her legs resting apart. Adding to the sultry charm, the Victoria's Secret stunner gazed away from the camera and let her dramatic eyes do all the talking.
The runway vet, who usually goes for a dewy look traded her subtle style for a heavy smokey-eyes style in the picture. Even her golden locks were styled into loose waves to complement the overall vibes of the shoot.
"So incredibly beautiful," a fan impressed with the model's eye-catching snap, shared.
A second user gushed about Maxwell's "sun-kissed" beauty while a third one exclaimed, "You look so hot and sexy."
"You are perfect Stella, stunning!!!" someone else commented.
Maxwell, of late, has been in the news because of her steamy magazine shoots and her Love advent calendar shoot.
Sharing a short teaser from the annual edition, the model teased her fans: "Day #16! You for sure aren't going to see the Love Advent calendar hanging in grandma and grandpas house before the holidays hahaha. Shot by @philpoynter style @sallylyndley makeup @alice___lane hair @benskervin thank i @kegrand @bitton fun shoot ;) Happy Holidays! @thelovemagazine."

Literacy is the ability to read and write in formal and informal settings. Information literacy is the ability to understand when information is needed, locate, evaluate and use the information effectively. The need of information literacy is both crucial to the general public as it is to students. Librarians are among the people who need to be information literate in order to be aware of what information is needed, how evaluate it and to what extend of effectiveness the information plays. This paper recognizes the role information literacy plays on the daily lives of students and how the problem of information illiteracy affects them.

The objectives of this paper are centrally focusing on how to rectify the problem of information illiteracy. The objectives include: to evaluate the effects of information illiteracy in the school setting; to identify and recommend six principal methods of eliminating the information illiteracy problem; and to identify and propose specific aspects of information literacy.
Information literacy is the core pillar of today's communication mostly in the academic setting and also public offices and so on. The importance of this proposal is to make it known to identify and recommend methods that are essential to students, teachers, and the general public in terms of effectiveness and the role they play. This proposal to a personal level is important in that an individual would be presented with methods that can improve his/her effectiveness when handling information. Professionally, the importance of this proposal is central to the elements of professionalism that include efficiency, time sensitivity, and relevance of information. With the two goals of the proposal joined, a general importance to the public is drawn.
In conceptualizing the validity and relevance of literature sources for this proposal, it is important that main focus be drawn to the problem at hand and try evaluating the relevance of sources in consideration of the objectives. Source of information for this proposal would mostly be professional is the academic arena that includes teachers, lecturers, students and the general public.Want an expert to write a paper for you Talk to an operator now
Literature Review
Information literacy is different from any other form of literacy. Reading and writing is considered the ultimate state of literacy, however, the concept of information literacy is drawn from how well understanding of information is vested in an individual's ability of writing and reading. Students go to schools to acquire different forms of education and pursue different courses. With the students in class or around the institution doesn't mean they are information literate and this is where the importance of being information literate takes control of the activities in an academic setting. All students by the time they get to high school and college, they all can write and read effectively, but how many of those can undertake tasks that require information elegance?
Following the concept that students may fall in the class of information illiteracy, six principal recommendations are made and include: Reconsidering the ways in which information is organized institutionally; promotion of public awareness of problems created by information illiteracy; research to be conducted that would bring the existence of a climate conducive to students' transforming to information literates; inclusion of information literacy concerns in teacher education; promotion of public awareness of the relationship between general goals of 'literacy, productivity and democracy' and information literacy. These recommendations are crucial in that they enable the students, teachers, and the general public to be information sensitive. This sensitivity breeds literacy and the end result is a community that is information literate. (
The downside of being ignorant to information literacy leads to scenarios where students after clearing college are enrolled for training before they can be employed. It is time wasting that information illiteracy would result to students being enrolled for training within their fields of interests before they are allowed to fully participate and contribute in professional settings. If the curriculum would follow the principal recommendations of addressing information illiteracy above, this scenario can be eliminated.
To extract information effectively and sufficiently, there is need to acquire appropriate methods of collecting data. For the task at hand, questionnaires will be used to get information from students; interviews will be used to acquire information from teacher and lectures; and internet forums will be used to get information from the general public. The relevance of using questionnaires on student is because of the fact that they are assumed to be numerous. Our target would be 500 students and setting interviews for 500 students can be hectic and time consuming. But with reproducible questionnaires, this number can be served effectively and in case of damage of copies, they can be replaced with immediate effect.
Information literacy is different from general literacy in that it deals with understanding, evaluation, location and effective use of needed information. Literacy is simply reading and writing and by possessing these abilities doesn't qualify to be information literate. Considerations on the subject matter have been made and recommendations have been made. These recommendations include; promoting awareness to students, teachers and the general public the effects and importance of information literacy; promotion of students' and teachers' considerations to take interest in becoming information literate; institutionally addressing the issues of information illiteracy by modifying the organization of information in institutions.

Whether playing a saucy soubrette or an imperious swan, Irina Dvorovenko was always a formidable presence on the American Ballet Theatre stage. Since her 2013 retirement at 39, after 16 seasons, she's been bringing that intensity to an acting career in roles ranging from, well, Russian ballerinas to the Soviet-era newcomer she plays in the FX spy series "The Americans."
We caught up with her after tech rehearsal for the Encores! presentation of the musical Grand Hotel, directed and choreographed by Josh Rhodes and running March 21–25 at New York City Center. It's another tempestuous ballerina role for Dvorovenko—Elizaveta Grushinskaya, on her seventh farewell tour, resentfully checks into the Berlin hostelry of the title with her entourage, only to fall for a handsome young baron and sing "Bonjour, Amour."

Was it always your plan to move from ballet to acting?
All my life I've been acting, living through each character onstage. So I enjoyed this very, very much—for myself, in my head. The year of my retirement, I auditioned for On Your Toes, also for Encores! at City Center. One hour after the audition, I got the mail—"You got the part." It was the first time I opened my mouth onstage and started to acknowledge my voice. And people enjoyed me speaking out, performing, dancing and talking. That was really a great feeling for me. After that, little by little, I got the Broadway bug.
In On Your Toes, Dvorovenko played Vera Baronova, the Russian ballerina who dances the famous "Slaughter on Tenth Avenue." Photo by Joan Marcus, Courtesy New York City Center.
What elements from ballet go into your acting performances? How is theater the same, and how is it different?
Dancing a character onstage, you need to have very strong charisma and stage presence. You give really all your energy for the spotlight, to hold the attention onstage. That's very, very important for every art form—singer, dancer and just actor in a play. So this is pretty much the same.

But compared to dancing, acting is much less painful physically, and of course it's not super exhausting. It's more pleasurable and satisfying just to be onstage and be a human being, not a princess but a real person—a woman acting and moving without restriction. In a ballet, you need to hold the line, control the position, the leg, the pointes—too many concerns in a ballet. When you're stage-acting, it isn't as stressful.
What about singing? In Grand Hotel, you have that big solo number.
I was working with Susan Stroman on the lab of The Beast in the Jungle, and someone kept calling and calling. When I picked it up, it was the casting director for City Center. He said, "Irina, we're doing an Encore with Grand Hotel, with a wonderful, beautiful starring role for you. Can you sing?"
I was like, "I dunno. I may try." He wanted me to prepare "Bonjour, Amour," and he said, "I give you a coach, you practice, and when you are ready, you audition. Then we'll see." And I said, "Sure, why not?" I never sang in my life—my natural voice is very low. But they found the right key for the song, and I was able to manage. Now it's a new chapter of my life.
How do you juggle being a mom to your daughter, running ballet intensives with your husband Maxim and an acting career?
I'm also a designer, designing a collection with my husband for Bloch. We're doing booties, sweatpants, jackets, sweats, unitards, jumpsuits, so that's another side. In this country, when you stop dancing, you're not gonna receive the pension, you're not gonna have the apartment and you're not gonna have the insurance. So you need to be creative and move in a couple of different directions to be secure, especially if you have a family. It's an enormous responsibility.
And acting is just something I really, really desire. I started from scratch—I didn't have any talking experience, and it's not my language, so it's much harder. With me having an accent, it's not easy for me to get roles. So step by step I'm trying. And it's really what's exciting me—it's an absolutely fantastic feeling, and I want to do more. I'm always hungry, looking for more and more.

KSport Big Brake Kit
We can supply kits for most vehicles, please email with vehicle details and we'll get price and delivery. See car specific section for listings RX8, RX7 & MX5.
KSport big brake kits provide the ultimate in stopping power for your vehicle. Integrating new brake technology into the design of the kits allows for a kit that highly reduces brake fade and continually cools and refreshes the brake pads surface under braking. These brake systems are designed for easy installation with minimal tools required.
The KSport big brake kit includes:
- 4,6 or 8 piston callipers
- Stainless steel brake lines
- Machined aluminum hats
- Carbon steel brackets
- Discs from 286mm to 400mm
- Pads EBC Red Stuff (alternatives available on request)
Extreme Lightweight Calliper:
Our extreme lightweight calliper comes in differential bore configuration. It is machined from aircraft quality billet, weighs just over 5lbs. each, and has machined in protection grooves for the bridge tubes. Aluminium pistons, high temperature seals, and stainless steel brake pad wear plates are also standard on each calliper design. The opposed piston calliper design greatly improves pad wear and calliper rigidity over the OEM design. The stainless steel brake lines stop expansion under pressure.
High Performance Rotor:
Most applications utilise the 2-piece disc assembly which reduces weight both rotating and unsprung. The 2-piece design also stops thermal stresses of extreme heat from warping the disc or cupping the braking surface. The unique slot design on the rotor greatly reduces braking noise and expels gas and pad debris faster than conventional slot designs. Every rotor is always heat treated and balanced before shipment for the best possible performance.

The Holzinger Group is working at the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) and promotes a synergetic approach of a human-centered AI to augment human intelligence with machine intelligence. The groups main focus is on explainable AI and interpretable machine learning, particularly in interactive machine learning (iML) with a human-in-the-loop. Our main application domain is medicine and health. We work on contributions to the international research community, so that a human expert can understand the underlying explanatory factors of data driven AI results – towards causality. This answers the question of why an AI decision has been made and enables ethical responsible and trustful AI and transparent, verifiable machine learning. This is highly relevant for human health, for research, business and industry.
Ultimately, to reach a level of usable computational intelligence, we need
- to learn from prior data,
- to extract knowledge,
- to generalize – i.e. guessing where probability mass/density concentrates,
- to fight the curse of dimensionality, and
- to disentangle underlying explanatory factors of the data – i.e. sensemaking in the context of an application domain.
Consequently, interactive machine learning (iML) with a human-in-the-loop, thereby making use of human cognitive abilities, can be of particular interest to solve problems, where learning algorithms suffer due to insufficient training samples, dealing with complex data and/or rare events or computationally hard problems, e.g. subspace clustering, protein folding, or k-anonymization. Here human experience and knowledge can help to reduce an exponential search space through heuristic selection of samples. Therefore, what would otherwise be an NP-hard problem reduces greatly in complexity through the input and the assistance of a human agent involved in the learning phase.
We work consistently on a synergistic combination of methods, techiques and approaches which offer ideal conditions to support human intelligence with computational intelligence: Human–Computer Interaction (HCI) and Knowledge Discovery & Data Mining (KDD).
Successful Machine Learning & Knowledge Extraction (MAKE) pipelines require a concerted effort of integrative research across seven fields:
1) DATA – data fusion, preprocessing, mapping, knowledge representation, environments, etc.
2) LEARNING – algorithms, contextual adaptation, causal reasoning, transfer learning, etc.
3) VISUALIZATION – intelligent interfaces, human-AI interaction, dialogue systems, explanation interfaces, etc.
4) PRIVACY – data protection, safety, security, reliability, verifiability, trust, ethics and social issues, etc.
5) NETWORK – graphical models, graph-based machine learning, Bayesian inference, etc.
6) TOPOLOGY – geometrical machine learning, topological and manifold learning, etc.
7) ENTROPY – time and machine learning, entropy-based learning, etc.

In the summer of 1969, 400,000 people from across the country came together and redefined the music scene forever. Though the legacy and lore of Woodstock lives on in the memory of its attendees, a new generation can experience the real and unedited festival through Richard Bellak's never-before-seen photographs and John Kane's incredible new interviews. Pilgrims of Woodstock offers a vivid and intimate portrait of the overlooked stars of the festival: the everyday people who made Woodstock unforgettable. The photographs and interviews capture attendees' profound personal moments across hundreds of acres of farmland, as they meditated, played music, cooked food at night, and congregated around campfires. For three days, they helped and relied on each other in peace and harmony. For most, it was a life-changing event. Now, as the 50th anniversary of the famed festival approaches, relive their experiences firsthand in Pilgrims of Woodstock.

Tom Antion's Tips For SMS Messaging
Short Message Service (SMS) marketing consists of using text messages to either a phone, web, or mobile communication system of a potential customer. An SMS marketing campaign involves collecting mobile phone numbers by using an opt-in form. Once these numbers are collected, a service is used to send out text messages that promote a new product or service. It can also be used to offer discounts or increase brand awareness. SMS marketing is one of the newest and fastest growing types of marketing. It offers low cost with high return on investment – 95% of all texts get opened within five minutes, which is faster than email and social media updates. Another major factor in SMS marketing's favor is the fact that it gives every business one of the most important factors to marketing, a one on one conversation with their customer.
Services like EzTexting or TextSMSMarketing let you organize your contacts and send out messages.
When setting up a text message to be used for marketing, remember to use good copy and it must fit within a 160 character limit. Other good practices include staggering your messages, don't overdo the messages. Anything above four a month can be considered too much. Every list is different and must be felt out to determine the best frequency of texts. Also, be sure to stay away from using text 'slang'. Messages containing 'gr8', 'omg', and other terms may appear fake when coming from a business.

• Show Bio for Peggy Lee
"Cellist, improviser, composer Peggy Lee was born and raised in Toronto, Ontario. She studied classical cello, completing a bachelors degree in performance at the University of Toronto as a student of Vladimir Orloff and Denis Brott. She furthered her studies on the cello with lessons with Martha Gerschefski in Atlanta Georgia. In the fall of 1988 Peggy began a year residency with a string quartet at the Banff Centre in Banff, Alberta. It was here that she first became interested in collaborating with artists from different mediums and in veering away from the classical path. This led to a decision to move away from the known and thus to her relocating to Vancouver, B.C. where she now makes her home.
Peggy's first forays into improvisation in Vancouver happened with dancers at the EDAM (experimental dance and music) studio at the Western Front and eventually led to her meeting and joining guitarists Ron Samworth and Tony Wilson in their respective bands; as well as becoming a member of the New Orchestra Workshop, which went on to have interesting and fruitful collaborations with Butch Morris, Wadada Leo Smith, René Lussier, Barry Guy and George Lewis.
Peggy continues to collaborate frequently with Ron and Tony and with her husband, drummer Dylan van der Schyff, as well as with many other longtime musical associates including Dave Douglas, Wayne Horvitz, Robin Holcomb, Veda Hille and Lisa Miller. She also leads or co-leads a number of musical projects: The Peggy Lee Band, Film in Music, Waxwing (with Tony Wilson and Jon Bentley) and Beautiful Tool (with Mary Margaret O'Hara).
She has also collaborated extensively in theatre and dance with companies and artists such as Ruby Slippers, Rumble Theatre, Presentation House, David Hudgins, Peter Bingham and Delia Brett.
In 2005, Peggy received the Freddie Stone Award for integrity and innovation in music and in 2010 she was awarded a Jesse Richardson Theatre Award for outstanding composition."-Peggy Lee Website (http://www.peggylee.net/about-peggy.html)

• Show Bio for Bill Clark
"On the Vancouver jazz scene, the Talking Pictures era began in the '90s, not the '30s. Trumpeter Bill Clark has been recording and performing with the ensemble of that name since its initial formation in 1993; his collaborative gait reliably pliable; his long-term dedication a hallmark of his own career as well as the ensemble itself. Clark has been intrinsic to a series of invitations involving musicians from outside Vancouver to work on specific projects with Talking Pictures, a casting call which has brought forth respondents from across the border in the United States as well as across the ocean in Europe -- such as Wayne Horvitz and Jorrit Dijkstra, respectively.
The other original members of Talking Pictures are cellist Peggy Lee, guitarist Ron Samworth, and drummer Dylan van der Schyff. Clark has also performed with another cooperative venture, the Vancouver Ensemble of Jazz Improvisation. He is a freelance composer who is particularly proud of "Pavel and the Puck," a piece originally written to be performed by a theater group on ice. Having contributed to the unusual genre of "ice theater" makes this artist distinct among other performers named Bill Clark, something a trumpet by itself cannot. Thus, this trumpeting Clark should not be confused with the one in the horn section of the Esther Phillips band, nor is he the same William Clark who played drums on many mainstream jazz records."-All Music, Eugene Chadbourne (http://www.allmusic.com/artist/bill-clark-mn0000066134)

A work by local artist Mai Thu Van has beaten 30 others to enter the finale of the Melusina sculpture competition launched by the City of Luxembourg to celebrate its 1050th birthday.
Van's work is also available to public voting on http://www.votemelusina.lu until Feb 23 before the final result is pronounced on Feb 25.
Participating sculptures all represent Melusina, the legendary wife of Count Siegfried, the founder of Luxembourg.
Melusina, a popular figure in European legends and folklore, is a feminine spirit of fresh waters in sacred springs and rivers.
She is usually depicted as a woman who is a serpent or fish from the waist down and resembles a mermaid. She can also be illustrated with wings, two tails or both.
In her works, Van depicted Melusina metaphorically with thin metal sheets cut in curves which accentuate her beauty and resemble white-crested waves. The sphere beneath the figure is symbolic of the full moon and pearls, which are traditionally believed to be formed from Melusina's tears.
The winning work on Melusina will be made into a real statue, which will be erected on the shores of the Alzette in Luxembourg-Grund, one of the country's major tourist attractions.

My name is Rose Mays and I opened Puppy Love by the Sea in Cannon Beach, Oregon in April, 2006. My husband, Rich, and I moved to Cannon Beach from Jefferson City, Missouri in October of 2005 when Rich accepted the position of City Manager in Cannon Beach. Things were going well for Rich but I needed a job. I worked as Director of Volunteer Services for our community hospital in Missouri but positions in that field are limited in a small area like ours.
I decided that I like dogs and there are plenty of dogs that come to Cannon Beach so I opened a dog store. I had been in a Petco one time and another dog boutique another time but that was the extent of my dog store experience. While being a novice in this industry was tough at first, the result is that Puppy Love by the Sea is not the same old – same old but a unique experience for dogs and their people.
My daughter, Christine, visited us several times from St. Louis. Christine was getting burned out in the corporate world and decided to come here for awhile to help at the store and think about her next professional move. Christine moved here in March, 2007, where among the people she met was Troy Crowe, the assistant manager of the Ocean Lodge in Cannon Beach. Troy and Christine began dating and were married November 1, 2008. Christine and Troy were blessed with their baby boy, Carter, on July 14, 2010. What a special gift to us all.
Puppy Love by the Sea is not a boutique but a shop where dogs love to visit, have a treat, pick out a toy and share their excitement of running on the beach and all the fun things that they did that day. Please stop by and say "Hi" when you're in town.

Many parents hate the idea of sending their child to preschool. They worry if the providers ill care for their little one in the same manner and if they'll lose out on precious time with their little one. The good news is that while many parents feel the very same reservations, preschools in st johns county are actually beneficial to the child and to the parents.
Children who attend preschool get a head start on kindergarten and that exciting first year of school. They learn how to be more socially adapt and make friends easier than kids who've yet to attend a school-like environment. It's far easier for kids to adjust after attending preschool. But, that's only the beginning of the many benefits offered when your child attends preschool.
Preschool teaches children that there are other rules to follow and helps them better thrive on that first day of school. They'll have better skills for adapting to various situations and a better understanding of how to interact with their peers and other adults. Kids who are around children their age are less aggressive and learn teamwork easier than other children.
Preschool offers kids the chance to learn new and exciting things, including colors, numbers, letters, and more. It certainly offers an advantage when they begin school. Most kids who attend preschool actually enjoy it, although it may certainly take some time to acclimate to the new surroundings and situation.
Maybe staying home with your little one is ideal but that situation is not always possible. In such situations, be happy to know that preschool does offer a plethora of advantages for kids four and under. It essentially provides them with a head start in life that helps them thrive in a multitude of positive ways.

We all need something to keep us occupied during those long hours at work. Fed up with the stress ball and want to try something new? You might want to take a close look at one of the new office fascinations: fidget spinners. These toys, specifically designed to pass time and release nervous energy, are booming. We're going to have a look at the Rotablade, a $135 spinner that's one of the most popular right now.
Not everybody can afford the mighty $199 price tag on the Torqbar, which is developed by MD Engineering. That has left people searching for an alternative that boasts similar quality at a lower price. The Rotablade Stubby from EME Tools is the best competitor to the Torqbar right now and there are a few reasons why many users may even think it to be better. The Stubby has been on sale a bit longer than the Torqbar, allowing it to become a fan favorite, and subsequently it's developed a reputation for its reliability as a solid fidget spinner. Just like the Torqbar has shown itself to be, the Rotablade Stubby is insanely addictive and is a dream to hold and fidget with.
Adding to Rotablade's respectability in the fidget spinner market, EME Tools have produced a few different Rotablade spinners to show they are by no means a one-trick pony. The Stubby is our focus today though and it comes in four metals. The titanium model is sold at $135 while the brass, stainless steel and copper designs come in nearly $20 lower at $116. The Stubby is very ergonomic and has grooves in which your fingers fit perfectly. You can then spin away with no worry about the spinner hitting anything or stopping. What's the point, you may ask? It can be hard to ascertain until you've had a go, but put simply, fidget spinners are the ideal way of time-wasting quietly when you're in the office, or to keep you away from bad habits such as chewing your nails or eating that additional biscuit because you have nothing better to do.
For small bits of kit, the Rotablade Stubby does feel somewhat heavy, which is actually a bonus when it comes to fidget spinner. It's equally-weighted and stays still in your hand, so you can extract longer spin times from it than you would be able to with cheaper finger spinners. The titanium spinner registers at 45 grams, while the heaviest of the four is the copper Stubby at 79 grams. The stainless steel and brass Stubbies fit in somewhere in between. Once you become a seasoned spinner you should be able to get anywhere from two to five minutes of spin time with your Stubby, although don't worry if you cannot get there instantly – practice makes perfect!
You'll have no worries about keeping your Rotablade Stubby in tip-top shape either since it comes in a well-made screw-cap tin that complements the spinner itself nicely – the Stubby fits snugly inside and won't rattle around. But that's not all. If you aren't entirely comfortable with the finger pads that come with the Stubby, you can purchase some copper finger pads to use instead which are softer. If you have a few spinners you may be able to utilize the connector which stacks them on top of each other.
Each Rotablade Stubby offers a slightly different spinning experience. The spin-time varies, as does the sound that the spinner makes, while evidently the colors change too. What all Stubby models have in common, however, is their remarkably quiet sound, which is essential. There's no chance you will hear it in public and you'd need ears like a hawk to detect the unobtrusive sound in a quiet scenario.
The chances are you're only going to buy the one Stubby so you won't have much use for the stacking connector, but if you do want to expand your range and pick up a few different designs, then it's a handy little tool to keep them altogether and it looks rather stylish too, particularly on an office desk. However, the great thing about finger spinners is their compactness and portability – if you start buying a few then it may be a pain to start carrying around all of them with you.
The desk stand is a beautiful accessory that perhaps accompanies your Stubbies better than the connecter does. Even more impressive, you can still spin your spinners when they're on the desk stand, allowing you to fidget away while keeping both of your hands free. Uniquely, the desk stand can be positioned on its side to fulfil a double duty as a cigar stand. Neat!
Unlike when you're spinning them in your hand, desktop spinning isn't quite as discreet since the Stubby is connected onto the table. Hence, when you spin, the vibrations will be felt through the desk creating a noticeable buzz.
Currently, the main drawback with fidget spinners is their tendency to get dirty and lose performance quickly as the particles inside clog up the bearings and slow the spinning speed, and ultimately the total spin-time. You would hope that with its biggish price that the Rotablade Stubby would be immune to such trouble but it is rather susceptible and frustrating. The gritty sound negates the Stubby's discreet qualities and spin-time can slide significantly.
The good news is there are steps you can take to reverse these effects, and EME Tools have included their own advice so you can treat your Stubby with the required care. Weekly cleaning via an alcohol spray or something similar will help dislodge the particles, lint and whatever else stuck inside the bearings. A few blasts of compressed air will then dry the Stubby far more successfully than by just patting it dry. Do all of this and your Stubbies will get back to somewhere near their best.
The dirt problem is far from unique with the Stubby, with wooden, 3D-printed and metal fidget spinners all having the same teething problems – over time, we imagine these issues will iron out as developers create new designs.
However, that's all in the future, and you should know how to keep your Stubby in the best possible condition. While EME Tools recommends a weekly cleaning, with such a pricey spinner, we advise that you give it a few sprays as soon as you notice a drop off in performance.
Overall, however, the Rotablade Stubby must be considered one of the best fidget spinners on sale. It's a true competitor to the Torqbar, and undercuts it quite significantly on price. There's also more to the Stubby with the connector and desk stand accessories. If you have the means to spend heftily on a spinner, this one should be near the top of your list.
