The similarity lies in the combination of intense classical
skill and a curiosity for other forms of performance, contemporary dance and
art for Khan, monologue and even comedy for Aakash Odedra.
The respected Kathak dancer Aditi Mangaldas choreographs Echoes for Odedra on a stage strewn
with the threads of bells that traditionally adorn the dancer's feet. From the
ceiling and the floor the dancer gradually winds the bells into his movement,
gaining speed and complexity.
Lit in golden beams by Fabiana Piccioli, Echoes promises to show off Odedra's
incredible talent in the rhythmic footwork, flying turns and delicate hands
that define this style.
It is in I Imagine
that Odedra plays to his other strengths. A mixture of dance, mime and spoken
word, he channels the verses of poet Sabrina Mahfouz to dwell on travel and
The suitcases stacked on the stage become alternately a
house, an armchair and the trappings of unknown countries as Mahfouz's refrain
'Home is where the hope is' plays out.
Funny and eloquent as well as beautiful, this programme is
the next step in an intriguing canon of work from Odedra.

As a material or combination of materials, insulation of the building envelope helps keep cold air out and heat in during the winter, while keeping warm air out and cool air in during the summer.
Insulation is widely considered the most effective way to improve comfort and the energy efficiency of a building, and can save significantly on heating and cooling costs. However, any time the insulating layer is interrupted, the effective R-value, or efficiency of the insulation, decreases.
In view of this, national energy codes have moved beyond cavity insulation, encouraging the use of continuous insulation (CI) systems, which provide an uninterrupted insulation layer over an entire wall, not just in the wall cavities. This article takes a closer look at continuous insulation, including types of wall systems, the R-values, differences, and costs.
Changing Design Tactics
Faced with code compliance and the pressing need to design for green building goals and save on energy costs, architects are turning to CI as an effective approach to eliminating segmented insulation with open gaps, blocking thermal bridging, and helping to improve thermal performance of the wall assembly.
In addition to continuous thermal insulation, an effective wall assembly will provide moisture vapor control, water-resistive barrier and air barrier, and be resistant to fire and extreme wind conditions. Insulation can play a role in all these characteristics. From interior furring and insulated cavities to foamed panel systems and next-generation insulated concrete masonry block systems, masonry construction offers diverse insulation options for energy-efficient wall systems. The relative performance of each insulation system should be examined not only in terms of its R-value, but in relation to the aforementioned goals of efficient wall assemblies as well as its potential for aesthetic effect, and the specific needs of the project.
Single Wythe Walls
A single wythe wall is a stone, brick, or concrete wall that is one masonry unit thick. Considered the most economical wall type, the single layer provides the structure, exterior surface finish, and, in some designs, interior surface finish. Single wythe walls are durable and inherently fire proof with fire ratings up to 4 hours. Although the thermal mass and inherent R-values may be sufficient to meet code requirements, particularly in warmer climates, additional insulation may still be required. Rigid insulation inserts, foamed-in place or loose-fill insulation can be applied to the interior or exterior of the unit. Furring strips can be added to the interior and allow for the addition of a finishing material such as drywall and accommodate additional insulation.
Alternatively, an exterior insulation and finishing system (EIFS) can be added to the exterior. According to the definitions of the International Building Code and ASTM International, an EIFS is a non-load-bearing, exterior wall cladding system that consists of an insulation board attached either adhesively or mechanically, or both, to the substrate; an integrally reinforced base coat; and a textured protective finish coat. According to Building Science Digests BSD-146: EIFS, EIFS became very popular in the 1980s and experienced a significant number of serious failures, almost all related to rain penetration.
Early EIFS used a face-sealed approach. Drained EIFS are significantly different from face-sealed systems in that, by definition, they have a provision for drainage. Unlike face-sealed perfect barrier systems, such systems can be successfully used as an exterior cladding system in essentially all climates and exposures. Drainable EIFS are not subject to the same limitations of use as face-sealed or barrier systems. In fact, drainable EIFS are among the most robust and advanced moisture control assemblies available. EIFs comply with building codes that reference energy conservation through the CI.
In single wythe walls, R-values will depend on the density of the concrete, the number and height of the of webs, the depth of CMU as well as the type of insulation calculation method used. With the variety of concrete masonry units and insulation types and thicknesses, R-values from 5 to over 20 are possible. Rigid foam inserts will yield an R-value of 3 to 10, and injected foam or loose fill will boost the R-value from 4 to 20.
While single wythe walls can be a cost-effective solution when building goals include permanence and economy, it is important to note that single wythe walls do not have the redundancy of a traditional cavity wall, and water penetration is sometimes a concern. To achieve the weather resistance of a cavity wall, the single wythe wall must be very carefully detailed and built, with particular attention paid to flashing, base condition, joints, and coatings.
Foam Panel Systems
Far preferable in a number of respects are foam panel wall systems. Rigid foam has been a key driver of energy-efficient construction over the last few decades as it gives a significant boost to R-values of walls and roofs with minimal increases in thickness. Further, it covers the framing elements, decreasing and sometimes eliminating the thermal bridging that is characteristic of cavity insulation. Rigid foam insulation can be airtight if properly sealed and taped at seams; air can go around but not through this insulation.
The InsulTech™ insulated concrete masonry system by Oldcastle APG, A CRH Company, offers high thermal efficiency while simplifying the installation process that a contractor would experience with a traditional brick-and-mortar wall.
Types of Foam
Code- and ASTM-compliant foam plastic CI sheathing materials are available with various characteristics and profiles, to meet specific project requirements, the main types being expanded polystyrene, extruded polystyrene, and polyisocyanurate foam, all produced under various trade names. Each type of product has different thermal properties and associated influence on required thickness and costs. Below we explain what each type of foam is.
- Expanded polystyrene (EPS) ASTM C578 is the most economical type of rigid foam and has an R-value of about R-4.0 per inch. Similar to the foam used for impact protective packaging, soil subgrade load-bearing blocks, and floation augmentation for boating and floating, EPS is one of the most widely used types of rigid foam. In successful use for many years in areas where moisture is a concern, EPS "breathes" so that moisture is diffused. It has been found to resist the growth of fungi and bacteria, and to maintain performance properties when exposed to moisture and/or water. EPS insulation is available in a variety of densities to suit project needs, and is frequently used in commercial buildings for roof and wall panel insulation. ASTM C578 provides performance properties on this type of foam insulation.
- Extruded polystyrene (XPS) rigid foam is usually blue or pink in color, with a smooth plastic surface, and available in a wide range of thicknesses and edge profiles. The R-value is about 5 per inch. Used widely in residential construction, this type of rigid foam will not absorb water like polyiso and is stronger and more durable than expanded polystyrene, making it a versatile type of rigid foam. XPS falls between polyiso and expanded polystyrene in price.
- Polyisocyanurate, or polyiso, foam has the highest R-value per inch (R-6.5 to R-6.8) of any rigid insulation, and is the most expensive. This type of rigid foam usually comes with a reflective foil facing on both sides, so it can also serve as a radiant barrier in some applications. It is used widely in commercial applications and increasingly in residential structures.
Foams themselves can be one of two types: open- or closed-cell. In general, the key difference between the two types is density, which has implications when used in insulation. As closed-cell foam is the denser of the two materials, it offers increased R-value per volume, increased resistance of water vapor transmission, and increased rigidity, providing superior structural integrity. A 1-inch layer of closed-cell foam provides roughly the equivalent insulation factor as a 2-inch layer of open-cell foam, making the former particularly advantageous in tight spaces as thinner layers of insulation can be used.
Closed-cell foams are superior insulators: They are strong and act as structural reinforcement for the insulated surface whereas open-cell foams have little structural strength. Open-cell foams typically have R-values of 3 to 4 per inch vs. closed-cell foams' R-values of 5 to 8 per inch. Another key difference is porosity. Open-cell foam is porous, which means moisture, both water vapor and liquid water, can penetrate the insulation. Closed-cell foam, on the other hand, is non-porous, and thus not moisture-penetrable.
Foam Masonry Panel System
Relatively new to the market, foam masonry panel systems provide continuous insulation and can consist of foam panels, stainless steel screws or anchors, masonry units, and mortar. Type S mortar can be used, which has the advantage of additives to achieve easier pumping, better bonding, flexibility, and dimensional stability. A variety of masonry units are available including durable stone, clay, and concrete brick with others under development. Masonry units are friction fit in the foam, with different types of units having different foam panels.
The foam is the key to the efficacy of the unit, adding good water management with drainage on both sides to take away any water that may infiltrate the wall and protect the structure from damage over its service life of high moisture exposure. R-values are high as well—9.1 Steady State and 13.6 including Thermal Mass. An STC of 51 and an NCMA TEK 13-1B sound transmission rating for concrete masonry walls means loud sounds are only faintly heard and occupants can enjoy their space in peace and quiet.
Some foam systems have been proven to resist wind speeds of more than 110 mph according to ASTM E330 with no lasting deformation, which essentially eliminates the structural risk of damage experienced with lighter-weight veneers. Fire resistance criteria notably NFPA 285 and ASTM E119 assures that tested foam walls have successfully withstood one hour of exposure to temperatures of more than 1,700°F. Foam panel systems should meet the aforementioned criteria.

The view of the river from outside the Shakespeare on the Saskatchewan tents is as appealing as ever, upstaged only by the drama taking place inside.
Shakespeare on the Saskatchewan has delivered a wonderful set of performances for audiences this year, offering two new perspectives on Much Ado About Nothing and Othello.
The company traditionally strives to provide their audience with two different examples of how Shakespeare can be performed, and this year is no exception.
Much Ado About Nothing tells the story of two couples on the path to love, one beginning as a fairytale romance and veering off course, and the other beginning as an openly hostile acquaintance that becomes mutual admiration.
The first pair are Claudio and Hero, who fall happily in love. With the help of friends, they take it upon themselves to convince Benedick and Beatrice — a pair with a history of witty repertoire and derisive commentary — that they are meant for one another.
Director Pamela Haig Bartley, a University of Saskatchewan associate professor of drama, set the production in the 1940s shortly after the Second World War, which is a perfect backdrop for the play's themes of class, honour and a battle between the sexes.
The cast has perfected their witty one-liners and nimble improv in the weeks since Much Ado About Nothing's opening. The audience roared with laughter throughout the majority of the production. The delivery of each line was meticulously crafted, as was the actors' body language — in fact, the hilarious antics and myriad of ridiculous facial expressions made the Shakespearean one-liners even funnier.
Robbie Towns as Benedick was equal parts charming and arrogant, pairing wonderfully with Beatrice — played by Jenna-Lee Hyde, graduate from the University of Saskatchewan College of Fine Arts — who was, as Benedick calls her, "Lady Disdain" in the best way.
The entire performance was energetic, consistently entertaining and managed to hit on both the play's comedic and tragic notes while maintaining an upbeat at feel. Towns and Hyde kept everyoneguessing by ducking in and out of empty seats, handing unsuspecting audience members their props and even aiming questions and comments at those sitting near them.
If those aren't enough reasons to convince you that this play is worth seeing, there are also several spectacular swing-dance sequences that left everyone's feet tapping.
In contrast to Much Ado About Nothing, Othello was every bit as dramatic and emotionally heavy as one would expect from a Shakespearean tragedy.
In a modern interpretation of this classic, Othello is portrayed not as a black man but as a successful Cree businessman — who has eloped with a colleague's white daughter. Tempers flare when Othello passes over his assistant Iago for a high-level promotion, instead giving it to another assistant, Cassio. Iago becomes jealous and begins a malicious campaign against them both.
It is an effective modernization of the original tale of racism, military rank and betrayal. Michael Lawrenchuk as Othello was fantastic in his anger and allowed the character's descent into despair to show in his entire body. The incorporation of the Cree language in Lawrenchuk's lines was a great addition.
Joshua Beaudry as the villain Iago was incredible to watch. He managed to portray a subtle shift between menacing and cunning behind other's backs to innocent and supportive to their faces.
The emotion was tangible in each scene and every actor far exceeded the mark in their performances. It was a powerful play performed to its full potential.
Both plays were performed in-the-round, meaning that the audience surrounded the stage on all four sides. This minimized the set and made for an involved experience, as there were actors appearing from all directions, but also occasionally made it difficult to hear the actors when they spoke.
Nevertheless, both plays were exceptionally well done and are worth experiencing before the season ends. There is something magical about seeing Shakespeare performed and this year's Shakespeare on the Saskatchewan has absolutely captured that magic.
Shakespeare on the Saskatchewan will be running until Aug. 23rd. For more information on tickets and showtimes, visit shakespeareonthesaskatchewan.ca

Through this span of time, pain is an important and influential feature of life. There is a higher probability of certain painful events, including teething, earaches, reflux, and immunizations. Individual differences in reactivity become apparent even at this young age. At about 6 to 8 months of age, improved cognitive competence becomes evident as children learn to anticipate painful events. They display anticipatory distress, exercise effort to avoid procedures, and display anger. Behavioral reactions 16 remain vigorous, although diminishing somewhat in vigor throughout infancy as vocalizations come to control the reactions of caregivers, suggesting that pain is more severe in the earlier months of life than later in infancy [15, 40].

What is a Bank Foreclosure?
When someone purchases a home with a bank loan, the bank uses the home as collateral for the loan. So if the buyer is unable to make the monthly payment, the property reverts back to the bank. The bank does not want to keep the property because they are in the business of lending money. The property is a liability to them because it is an outstanding debt. Therefore they need to find another buyer for the property. This is where foreclosure listings come in. The property can be advertized for sale at a lower price to entice people to buy.
What are foreclosure listings?
Foreclosure listings are a list of available properties that have been foreclosed, or taken back by the bank. They need to be resold to clear the banks accounting balance. So many times the banks will put these properties on a list so prospective buyers will see them.
A Foreclosure Listing Service offers a listing of available foreclosed properties, that is updated on a daily basis. Often the information they provide is; the price, some features or selling points to the property and the amount of yearly taxes if available. These services are offered for a small monthly membership fee, and usually have a free 7 day trial offer so you can try it out with no risk. If you are not satisfied you can always cancel before the 7 days are up.
This is a great opportunity for those looking to buy bargain priced homes. These homes have been reduced in price for fast sale, and may be in need of a little fixing up that will increase the homes value if the buyer decides to resell it in the future. Many people looking to get started in the real estate business, start out buying foreclosed homes.
Benefits of buying a foreclosed property?
The benefits to the buyer are buying a property that is priced below market value, and will not be tied up with liens from other parties. The title will be free and clear to the buyer.
By the way, by researching and comparing the different free foreclosure listing services in the market, you will be able to determine the one that meets your specific requirements, plus the free or cheaper options. This way you will save time through up to date foreclosure listings and money by getting better results over your investment.

Justin Bieber guilty of assault and careless driving in Canada
Justin Bieber's lawyers confirmed on Thursday that the singer pleaded guilty to assault and careless driving charges in connection with a collision and altercation with a photographer near his hometown in Canada.music Updated: Jun 05, 2015 20:11 IST
's lawyers confirmed on Thursday that the singer pleaded guilty to assault and careless driving charges in connection with a collision and altercation with a photographer near his hometown in Canada.
The 21-year-old singer, who appeared at the hearing via video link from Los Angeles, received an absolute discharge on the assault charge and a C$750 ($600.00) fine for the careless driving charge. He was also required to pay a C$100 victim surcharge.
The pop star had originally been charged with dangerous driving following the August incident, but that charge was dropped.
The incident happened during a visit to the Stratford, Ontario, area with pop star
. The two were 'disrupted by the unwelcome presence of paparazzi' his lawyer said at the time.
Local media, citing police, reported there was a 'physical altercation' following a collision between a minivan and an all-terrain vehicle outside the town.
Bieber's lawyer, Brian Greenspan, said the absolute discharge for the assault 'recognised the fact that it was an incident that was somewhat provoked and that it lasted less than a minute'.
"The assault was described even by the photographer as a couple of slaps, certainly three at the most, that he deflected with his shoulder," Greenspan said, adding that Bieber acknowledged his responsibility to the judge.
Bieber, whose songs include the hits Boyfriend and Beauty and a Beat, has been a favourite paparazzi target and has had several run-ins with the law.
In August, he pleaded guilty to careless driving and resisting an officer without violence in Florida, part of a deal to resolve allegations that he had been drag racing in a Lamborghini under the influence of drugs and alcohol.

In July, Bieber pleaded no contest to misdemeanour vandalism for pelting a neighbour's California home with eggs. He was sentenced to two years probation.

James Hicks to play on International Quidditch team this summer
By Jenny Hottle / for The Diamondback
Wednesday, June 6, 2012
Originally posted on diamondbackonline.com.
He just started playing quidditch last fall, but soon James Hicks will be playing the sport just miles from King's Cross Station.
The graduate student earned a spot on the International Quidditch Association's Team USA and will travel to London in July for the Olympic Expo Games. On May 16, a text from the team's former president and now IQA Mid-Atlantic regional director, Logan Anbinder, told him to check online, where Hicks saw his name listed on the first-string roster.
"I honestly didn't expect it," Hicks said. "I knew we got nominated for it, and it was a long wait. When the rosters came out, I didn't think I was going to be on the team."
This university's Quidditch Team captain nominated Hicks and two of his teammates, junior computer science majorZac Connelly and senior Arabic studies and government and politics major Patrick Rardin, both of whom were selected as reserve players for the national team. They're three of 42 students selected from about 150 nationwide teams, Anbinder said.
"It's cool to see that my athleticism has been recognized and that Maryland has been recognized with quality players that can compete at an international level," Rardin said.
Hicks, who played baseball as an undergraduate student at St. Augustine's College in Raleigh, N.C., joined the quidditch team in fall 2011.
Although his mother, Ronda Hicks, knew her son was athletic, she was skeptical of his new hobby at first.
"I couldn't conceptualize it," she said.
But after Hicks explained the game some more, his mother began understanding how his height and experience with sports could pay off. Next month, she'll travel to London to see him play.
"I thought, 'He may be good at this,'" she said. "It's an interesting sport. It's a sport that he's really fallen in love with."
Although Team USA has not held any practices yet, Hicks said it is favored to win because U.S. players generally have more experience than their international competitors.
"We have a better knowledge of the rules," Hicks said. "We have a better knowledge of the team game plan."
While the game may be newer to the other countries competing in the London tournament, Anbinder said he still expects to see some close games.
"It will be interesting to see the different play styles because U.S. teams sort of play in a vacuum where we don't really get to play other international teams with the exception of maybe at the World Cup," Anbinder said.
But other teams' chasers will have to get through Hicks' defense first.
The 6-foot-1 keeper has a long wingspan that helps him easily guard the hoops and catch the quaffle, the ball used to score — a skill his teammates said they admire.
"It's like, what? How do you even do that?" Connelly said. "It's really impressive."
"He'll literally grab the quaffle out of the air instead of swatting it down or something like a lot of people do," Anbinder added.
Once he grabs a quaffle, Hicks then uses his speed and takes the initiative to lead the chasers up the field and call plays, which Anbinder said may make him a leader on Team USA.
This university's team's drill-intensive practices — six every week during the semester — seem to have paid off so far. In addition to having three national players, this university's quidditch team is ranked fourth out of more than 600 U.S. teams.
"We're still an up-and-coming team, but we're definitely making a name for ourselves," Rardin said. "It really started with a group of like five people running around with broomsticks looking goofy on the mall, and now, we've got a travel squad of 21 that's competitive."
Players said the sport is not always about running drills and working plays. On Sundays, they relax a little and take the game less competitively, Rardin said.
"We realize it's a goofy sport, and we just mess around," he said. "It's just a great time hanging out with the team. We are a giant family, so Sundays are always a fun day."
Because of the number of practices of week, Connelly and Hicks said their lives mostly revolve around quidditch and school — not that they mind.
"When we aren't practicing, we are usually all hanging out together, studying together," Hicks said. "We all have a mutual respect for each other from all the work we have put in together to get to where we are today."
The university team will continue practicing twice a month during the summer in preparation for next season.
"We're pretty hard to miss," Connelly said. "We're out there all the time, screaming and running around on brooms. We don't exactly blend in."

This is the story about two guys who met in their search for meaning, and ended up making magic. It all started in Cape Town, when Grant Rushmere, a passionate, creative entrepreneur set out on a mission to answer the question: Can you be healthy and still have fun?*
*Spoiler alert: The answer is YES!
As a South African, Grant grew up doing two things that would forever shape our story.
- Drinking rooibos – a ridiculously healthy plant that only grows in South Africa.
- Going BOS! – for those who don't know … "Go BOS" is a South African expression meaning to go crazy, in a fun way. And that's exactly what he did.
With a new-found inspiration, Grant rolled up his sleeves and got down to business. He started designing cans in beautiful colours and creating delicious recipes with natural fruit flavours. And of course, he started looking for the best quality organic rooibos in the world. As one does.
His quest took him to the Cederberg, a 100km radius of some of the most spectacular wilderness you'll find south of the equator. Here's where he met Richard Bowsher – entrepreneur and enthusiastic farmer of – you guessed it – organic rooibos. The two of them hit it off. The scene had all the makings of greatness compliments to the rugged mountains and ancient rock pools of Klipopmekaar, Richard's rooibos farm and nature reserve. The name of the farm means, "one rock on top of another" and sure enough they shook hands, and one thing led to another and the business of BOS was born.

Unfortunately it's going to get worse as technology development gets faster due to more computing power and more highly qualified professionals with extensive experience. India lacks both in this aspect. India also lacks the manufacturing aspect which will also take decades to reason where China is currently.I wonder how big a gap there is in advanced technology between India and the West and can they ever hope to catch up? Given their tendency to buy a lot of military gear from the West and Russia rather than develop their own, I doubt they ever will.
Huawei has been the biggest target so far obviously, but DJI, TikToc, and others, whichever Chinese companies that are leaders in their fields, are increasingly in the cross-hairs too. The cited reason is either national security threat or ideological nonsense, and is almost always evidence-free. Coupled with mass propaganda and smearing campaigns by MSM and politicians (Xinjiang, Hong Kong, etc.), this kind of viciousness against China is hardly unprecedented, but has been rare in the last several decades.
If you can't beat the competition, accuse them of denying people's rights like helping to rig elections. It's a typical tactic to deflect negative attention on one's self to someone else.
I have forgotten the name of the European company, there was talk in the now closed Huawei threads, that Huawei could reach a deal and use their mobile services.
Remember that huge discussion we had about the future of Huawei? Well, sounds like Hongmeng is out, but the scope is now narrower. Instead of trying to replicate an entire OS, Huawei now only needs to replicate Google Mobile Services.
of course in a general waywell years ago in this forum I heard China should need to avoid
that's why a really high GDP-growth figures are needed (not my personal opinion, as on this matter I have none)
I think you're thinking of that alternative app store, which is something different. Apparently that is not the difficulty, but the fact that many apps simply do not work without GMS.I have forgotten the name of the European company, there was talk in the now closed Huawei threads, that Huawei could reach a deal and use their mobile services.
I gather the company was created a ever-growing market of anti-google users.As well as ever growing user base of millions? it currently has thousands of apps, many of which are found on google android.
Perhaps folks living in Europe might know what mobile service provider I am referring to.
It's a sensationalist title, just like always:new numbers appeared, and while I'm not a fortune-teller I already commented Saturday at 10:03 AM
of course in a general way
follow the links
China will need to battle further economic slowdown in fourth quarter
China's economic growth worse than expected, sinking to new low of 6.0 per cent in third quarter amid US trade war
if interested
you sound more optimistic than the Glob. Times I linked Yesterday at 10:25 PMIt's a sensationalist title, just like always:
"China's growth runs out of steam clocking in lowest rate in 30 years at 6.5%."
"US economy firing on all four cylinders with growth at 2.5%."
"Japan's economy shows strength with surprise return to growth!"
Everything looks fine considering some downward pressure is to be expected from the trade war, though not a whole lot. China's Q1-Q2-Q3 went 6.4%, 6.2%, 6.0%. Very smooth and quite nice. To put things in perspective, 6% growth is a very nice number even for a very poor small developing country, so yeah, China needs to maintain a "really high GDP growth number" to break through the middle income trap but "really high" is not defined in comparison to the steroidal explosive growth that China pulled off when it was poor as hell and just joined the WTO.

Enough time 5 The majority of Useless Site Promotion
Every single owner marathazhunj.com of any website in planet Earth knows that getting a frequent flow of targeted traffic is vital to making money online. The internet attracts such a massive quantity of buyers that regardless of what you sell, you can expect to make several really good funds when you have a lot of traffic.
Online marketers are continuously coming up with modern ways to increase their reach across the net because not any website might survive without enough targeted prospects. In their search for obtain a lot of elusive visitors the website entrepreneurs have come up with some alternatively creative ways to bring in better amounts of targeted traffic in a short period of time and with minimal effort.
My own email mailbox has been overloaded with revenue letters marketing some computerized software or perhaps seldom utilized secret that promises an exlosion of website visitors inside 30 days. The disturbing part of all this is the fact it moves against the teaching of our our childhood; that nothing at all good comes easy and you cannot find any quick way to building a effective business. As a consequence of these promises of numerous website traffic and exploding revenue figures, various have ruin those period tested methods of attracting legitimate targeted readers that are willing to take some form of action. Keep in mind that website traffic isn't really something that you can just get, nevertheless visitors may come to your website for those who have something to offer attracting them to click on the link.
Many folks are benefiting from00 a person's wish to get to the top without much effort by offering several really useless website marketing tactics that could truly kill their search engine rankings. The true fact is these are nothing more than 'Marketing Fads' that may produce a lot of huge brings about the beginning, when the newness wears off their effectiveness will disappear forever similar to the telephone sales space.
Remember the moment pop-ups and pop-under marketing and advertising came out quite a while ago? It was the hottest marketing tool since the moments of placing fliers on cars in the building. But when everyone in the world started out using pop-ups to promore their websites there were house windows popping up each time you seen and left as webpage. Internet users worlwide got so sick of dozens of pop-up glass windows that somebody invented a pop-up great software. The various search engines even began penalizing websites that were employing pop-up screenplay and soon after that means of website promotion faded aside.
I will make an work to identify and explain a few of these useless web-site promotion methods that should be averted at all cost. Employing some of these negative website marketing techniques could absolutely kill your engine positions
Automatic Search Engine Submission Companies
These cost-free search engine submitter websites enable you to put in the url, a keywords and description of your website. Afterward you click Submit believing that your website is definitely on its way to being indexed about thousands of search engines like google. No hence! First of all, the search engines need manual distribution by hand and in some cases implement coding script to stop auto submisson. Secondly, at the time you click on that Submit key you have no idea where you website link find yourself going. Your site link could possibly be automatically uploaded to porno or overseas directory websites that are simply colony of spam links. If
Google crawls your website to see that you have links to your website because of other websites with ruined content, your website will pay for the price in low ratings.
There is absolutely no substitute for manually submitting your websites to the search engines like yahoo directly. You'll have done complete control of where you website link is going, as well as the search engines is going to automatically get your website to get your title and description.
Automotive Submission to Directories and FFA sites
You may have problably seen all those places that claim you are able to blast your website to over a couple of million websites and sites. As a general rule, make sure you stay away from anything that says the term Blast because this is just yet another way of saying Spam. It sounds just like you are litterally placing the link upon millions of different websites and getting tons of fast backlinks to your site. Those FFA or No cost For All websites is nothing but a link farmville farm containing link from sites with undesirable or irrelavant content. The major search engines will never see your website respectable enough to rank high inside the search results getting affiliated with that type of environment.
Lead Generation Software program
I when received a message that said, inches Hello Web marketer, My name is Sara. I have been looking the internet for some business opportunities and came across your internet site. I just wanted to be aware of if you are continue to in business today.
I responded to the person giving them additional information about among our websites. That particular email was overlooked until I received a few other emails with all the same publishing from a different sort of names and email addresses. This matter has sparked my own curiousity and prompted me to do several further study to find out why are these electronic mails turning up therefore frequently. I recently found that this was your work of lead generation software program that components website backlinks and emails from the internet in from virtually any catagory. You only type the keyword in the search as well as the software virtually pulls in millions of email. That program even enables you to mass email all those emails. On the area it appears to be the perfect way to put your site link in millions of email addresses of those inside the same catagory as you. This has the look and smell of spam, nevertheless because the a person sending the e-mail does not make an work to sell you anything, they have not quite spam. This promoting technique is not very effective as the email was generic, gregario and would not give the target audience a reason as a solution. Your e-mails should communicate with the person's requirements and not just in them. Your readers respond to emails because you may have found ways to reach the interests, giving them a reason for this.
Backlink Generating Software
Google loves websites that have a lot of quality one way links pointing to it mainly because they visualize it as having content crucial enough that others will certainly place a hyperlink to if using their website. A person got this crazy idea to systemize the link building that Google loves, wishing they will acquire huge amounts of priceless links and stay moved to the best of the search engine results. Google has now gotten bright and has found to way to discover how you are receiving you back links and even the speed at which you are getting oneway links. So if you remain buying backlinks or using software to get quick backlinks consequently Google will know of it and penalize your internet site. Nothing may substitute for writing valuable articles that will automatically attract top quality backlinks via those who really want to share your valuable content with others.
Computerized Article Submitter and Article Spinning
Writting superior quality articles is a wonderful way to attract targeted prospects to your website. Again, someone features invented ways to automate this procedure as well. That they came out with document submission application that they say will quickly submit your written content articles to plenty of article directories. There is even a software which will take an individual written content, spin the title and thoughts around and submit those to more lookup directories. This application sells like hotcakes because people don't might like to do the time intensive work of writing their own articles or blog posts and submitting them to personally to article directories.
The real authentic article directories that may syndicate the articles are obtaining smart and have installed a special code that disallows automotive submission of articles. They have also installed a special screenplay that can discover articles which were spun faraway from the original. The majority of them manually say yes to articles before they are produced in their listing and can conveniently detect replicate and spinned contact.
Final result: Widespead by using these computerized website marketing software program has removed the need to apply real genuine website campaign that gets real results, and substituted it a push-button marketing. You may observe some quick and good success, but simply for a short period of time. Deal with your website such as an infant; provide lots of focus, feed this some healthy and balanced content, guard it by dangerous unsolicited mail activity and let it grow naturally eventually.

최근 북한의 경제정책 평가 및 향후 전망(Assessment of North Korea's current economic policies and outlook)

Dominating not only the actions of economic players but also the daily lives of citizens, economic policies play a fundamental role in the shaping of North Korea as we know it. Needless to say, analyzing the progress and significance of these policies is imperative in understanding the "enigmatic economy." Accordingly, this paper examines the direct and indirect economic impact of the North's major policy trends and measures upon entering the 21st century. The keynote address on economic policy was delivered every 5-6 years during the 2000s. The main objective of the North Korean government, above all else, was to restore the collapsed planning function of the economy by resolving the disparity between official and market prices. Following the implementation of subsequent measures, however, market prices and the North Korean won rapidly reverted back to their original high levels, even exceeding them in some cases. In fact, the price gap widened further and marketization gained speed. This, in turn, has exacerbated the dollarization and yuanization of the North Korean market, presenting a phenomenon resembling that of the 'informalization' seen in other socialist nations. To confirm, a survey was conducted on 1,010 North Koreans residing in South Korea. The survey results reveal that 52.1% of household income was generated from informal sectors. Specifically, the share of household income from informal sectors increased from 43.4% before 2005 to 63.5% after 2011, presenting statistical significance; the reasons as to why have changed from "survival" to "consumption and business purposes."The diminishing role of the public sector can be conjectured from figures related to the people's daily lives, including the dependency level for food items and consumer goods and share of disposed products as a result of national planning policies. It was also found that informalization is evolving into dollarization and yuanization. Finally, a logistics regression analysis, using the survey results, examined the characteristics of people who claimed to be influenced by economic policies. Accordingly, the results show that those with a larger share of informal income (52%) than formal income and those who actually experienced the 2009 Currency Reform were more susceptible. Meanwhile, the level of education, participation in government, type of job, and income levels were found not to have much relevance. This implies that, the more people are exposed to informal sectors, the more they are influenced by economic policies. Despite the underlying limitations, this paper is significant in several aspects. Firstly, while previous studies only center on specific periods and policies, an diachronic investigation, focusing on the 2000s, was conducted in order to understand the overall impact of and trends in policy. This is particularly meaningful as the government moved back and forth, from permitting then banning market activities and vice versa, in response to the rapidly expanding informal sector from the 2000s, following the"Arduous March" (great famine and economic crisis 1994-1998). Secondly, efforts were made to examine the ripple effects from the North's economic policies and to verify the 'informalization hypothesis' via a survey of 1,010 respondents. Notably, the specimen pool included those who had first-hand experience of the currency reform to see whether the changes indeed correlate with informalization. And thirdly, this paper explored the differing perceptions of economic players with regards to economic policy and how these policies have affected North Korea's current economic landscape via a cross-checking of existing studies, North Korean literature and survey results.

Michael Blosil Suicide: Marie Osmond's Son Dies In Los AngelesQuote:
Marie Osmond's son Michael died Friday in Los Angeles after leaping to his death from his apartment.
Michael had struggled with depression in the past and in 2007, at age 16, he went to rehab.
In March 2009 Marie gave an interview to People magazine saying he was out of rehab and better,
"Those kinds of things are really very hard for a teenager to deal with," she tells PEOPLE. "And if he ever wants to talk about it ... he will, but it has to be their choice. It's not my choice."
Now out of rehab, Michael Blosil is finishing up his last year of high school while living with his mom in Las Vegas (where she and brother Donny headline in a show at the Flamingo). "I couldn't be more proud of him," says Osmond. "He's got a 3.9 GPA in high school. He's looking at scholarships to some wonderful colleges."
Marie and her husband Brian Blosil split in 2007 after 20 years of marriage and eight kids, five of whom (including Michael) were adopted.
Entertainment Tonight broke the news of his death with the following:
Osmond family members have notified ET that Marie Osmond's son Michael Blosil leapt to his death Friday night in Los Angeles. Contacted by phone this morning, Donny Osmond tells us: "Please pray for my sister and her family."
Here are the details: Michael, who was in his late teens and is one of Marie's eight children, died after jumping from his downtown Los Angeles apartment at about 9 p.m. on Friday night. He left a note explaining he intended to commit suicide due to his life-long battle with severe depression that left him, he said, feeling as if he had no friends and could never fit in.

Background Checks: Criminal, Credit and Social Networking Remember that particularly problematic employee you hired? You thought, well, how could I have known the situation would be that bad? Simple answer — background checks.

David Barnett
Founder & CEO, PopSockets LLC
David Barnett is the founder and CEO of PopSockets LLC. He was a philosophy major at Emory University, a physics major at the University of Colorado Boulder, received his PhD in philosophy from New York University, and from 2005-2015 was a philosophy professor at CU-Boulder. His research specialized in philosophy of language and philosophy of mind, before he reached enlightenment, stopped doing philosophy and became an entrepreneur.
In 2010, Barnett was looking for a way to stop his earbud cord from getting tangled, and he achieved this by gluing two buttons to the back of his phone and wrapping the earbud cord around the buttons. As ugly as the buttons were, they worked. In the course of improving on the idea, he developed about 60 different prototypes, making the buttons expand and collapse via an accordion mechanism, so that they could function as both a stand and a grip.
In 2012, Barnett launched a Kickstarter campaign for an iPhone case that would have two PopSockets grips integrated into the case. In addition to getting successfully funded, the KickStarter campaign enabled Barnett to show the world his dancing prowess. Two years later, in 2014, Barnett launched the business out of his garage in Boulder, and has subsequently sold over 110 million PopSockets grips around the world.

Brook Eddy
Founder & CEO, Bhakti Chai
Brook Eddy traveled to India in 2002 and fell in love with two things. The first was "Bhakti" – the idea that no matter your station in life, you have a responsibility to contribute to your community and create lasting impact in ways large and small.
The second was the discovery of the spicy taste and unforgettable aroma of a cup of homemade chai tea. She found that in sharing a cup of spicy chai with families she met, they were also sharing their zest for life and their dedication to the ritual of taking time during the day to drink in the moment.
Brook returned home to Colorado and began experimenting with brewing her own chai, layering fragrant spices and including fresh-pressed ginger for that extra bold zing she had experienced in India. Her friends and neighbors became her first "customers." They quickly became fervent fans and followers of her incredible Chai and the social action principles of Bhakti. Their enthusiasm let her know this was the bold, spicy path her life should take.
Bhakti Chai blends fresh and sustainably sourced (fair trade, non-GMO, organic) with triple-bottom-line and B Corp business practices. Iced Bhakti Chai bottles are available in six varieties: Original, Decaf, Coffee Blend, Semi-Sweet, Almond Blend, and Toasted Coconut Almond Blend. Concentrate products are available in quarts, half gallons, and gallons in Whole Foods, Costco, and cafes across the country.

Arsenal Team News: Injuries, suspensions and line-up vs Crystal Palace
Arsenal will look to continue their amazing run of form on Sunday when they face Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
The Gunners have won 11 matches in a row in all competitions and picked up another victory on Thursday night when they narrowly beat Sporting 1-0 in Lisbon.
Unai Emery's side look particularly impressive in the second half of matches and boast a plethora of options in attack, showcased by Danny Welbeck's winner against Sporting.
Arsenal are currently in fourth place level on points with Chelsea and Tottenham, just two points behind league leaders Manchester City and Liverpool - who also have the same points tally.
Arsenal Injuries
Petr Cech is back in full training following a hamstring injury sustained at the end of September against Watford.
Konstantinos Mavropanos is still recovering from a groin injury while Ainsley Maitland-Niles is fit after a small fracture to his left fibula.
Club captain Laurent Koscielny is also back in training, while Nacho Monreal faces a fitness test on a minor hamstring problem.
Arsenal Suspensions
Arsenal have no suspensions for this game.
Possible Arsenal Starting Line-Up
Emery made six changes for the victory over Sporting in the Europa League and he's likely to do the same against Palace.
Alexandre Lacazette will come back into the starting line-up, as could Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, while Mesut Ozil will return in his favoured No.10 role.
Hector Bellerin looks likely to start at right-back after being rested for the match in Lisbon, with Shkodran Mustafi expected to partner Sokratis Papastathopoulos in defence.
The midfield partnership of Granit Xhaka and Lucas Torreira also looks set to continue if Nacho Monreal is passed fit.
Crystal Palace Team News
Alexander Sortloth is expected to return from a virus after missing the 2-0 defeat to Everton at the weekend.
The £9 million ($12m) summer signing will bolster Roy Hodgson's striking options as Christian Benteke is ruled out with a knee injury.
Wilfried Zaha and Andros Townsend played upfront against the Toffees but Hodgson could decide to introduce a more natural option in the form of Sorloth following the disappointing result at Goodison Park.
TV Coverage & Kick-Off Time
Kick-off is 1:30pm BST (9:30pm ET) on Monday, and the game will be broadcast live on Sky Sports in the United Kingdom. It will be shown on NBCSN in the United States, and on various channels around the world.
Best Opta Match Facts
Crystal Palace have lost nine of their last 11 Premier League matches against Arsenal (W1 D1), losing both games in 2017-18.
Arsenal have only lost one of their nine away Premier League visits to Crystal Palace (W6 D2), a 0-3 reverse in April 2017.
Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson has won none of his last nine Premier League games against Arsenal (W0 D3 L6) since a 1-0 win with Fulham in August 2008.
Arsenal's Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has scored a Premier League goal on average once every 104.6 minutes – the best mins/goal ratio in the competition's history (min. 10 goals).
Arsenal have scored more Premier League goals via substitutes this season than any other team (6).

Lazy Days of summer
We're just hanging out relaxing, and getting really sleepy. We need a strong breeze to get our blood going. Been some pretty slow sailing so far. We have had some spectacular sunsets though. Things are pretty quiet at the marina. That's good for us, bad for business. Been wondering about how my batteries will hold out overnight with the fridge running. I should probably test this before actually hanging on a hook. Don't want my Popsicles to melt. Yesterday we sailed out past the bluffs again, then drifted back, then caught a 10 knot breeze to close haul it back in. Alert handled very nice upwind. We got 4.5 knots out of 9, knot bad :) It was tough to keep our eyes open while drifting. Deb managed to nod off, while I just closed my eyes a few times. It's called geezer sailing. Go out and take a nap. Good thing we don't do this in a car.

MIDTOWN, Manhattan — Have you ever been on the train, put a bag overhead and forgot it? It happens countless times a day! But all hope is not lost.
We're taking you inside the Metro-North Lost and Found where thousands of items are recovered and ready for your retrieval.
It's iconic, the hustle and bustle of Grand Central Terminal. Underground in between tracks 100 and the Police Department is a ray of light for many, the Metro-North Lost and Found.
Vinnie Perito left his Kindle behind on a Metro-North train and it ended up here. "I got an email 3 days after filing a claim, so I came down here and here it is. I wish I had these odds in other things in life."
The Metro-North Lost and Found houses thousands of items from wallets, bikes, strollers, purses and so much more which are all categorized and ready for pick up.
John Daly the assistant director of service quality for Metro-North says the most surprising thing he's seen here are some prosthetic limbs.
When it comes to coats-they have installed a full size moving clothing rack. As for other valuables like wallets they're kept in the safe.
So how do you get your items back? Go to MTA.INFO, Then click on Metro-North Lost and Found and then submit in inquiry.
You'd be surprised at how many items are returned, but you only have 90 days to pick it up.
After that it's pack up-and shipped to an Alabama company that buys the unclaimed items.
John credits the Metro-North employees, the field crews and coach cleaners who he says are the best in the business making sure all that is lost is found.
One important tip from John, is to make sure you can describe your items. For example, saying you lost a black iphone, is not helpful! And if you have a black iphone you may want to put a sticker on it, something to make it stand out.
He also says bikes are often not recovered. If you left a bike on the train more than likely it's in the Metro-North Lost and Found.

Peter Mandel Hall died peacefully on Dec. 8, at the age of 83, with his wife Debra Janes by his side. Diagnosed with cancer in 2011, Peter faced it until the end with grit, humor, and an inspiring positive attitude.
Peter was a professor of sociology, at the University of Missouri-Columbia from 1972 until moving to Fort Collins in 2009, where he was an affiliate professor at Colorado State University. He obtained his BSW/MSW (1957/1959) in social work from University of California-Berkeley, participating in the free speech movement, a precursor to the national anti-war movement. He earned his PhD in sociology from the University of Minnesota in 1963.
Peter published two books and more than 50 journal articles in many subfields ranging from symbolic interaction to environmental sociology. His remarkable productivity continued to the end. At the time of his death, he was at work on numerous projects, including a sociological memoir and an article on hydraulic fracking. Among his many accomplishments Peter was president of both the Midwest Sociological Society and the Society for the Study of Symbolic Interaction, a recipient of the G.H. Mead award for career contributions to the field of symbolic interaction, and a member of the CSU editorial team for The Sociological Quarterly. The Peter Hall lecture series at the Midwest Sociological Society was established in his honor in 2003.
Peter's interests included progressive politics, gourmet food, zinfandel wine, photography, Irish folk music, camping, running, hiking the Fort Collins foothills, Cardinal baseball, Mizzou sports, New York Times crossword puzzles, impressionist art, and genealogy which allowed him to reconnect with cousins Charles and Muriel.
His strong belief in equality and social justice was instilled in him by his parents, Clara and Robert, and passed down to his children and grandchildren. He is survived by his wife of 29 years, Debra; children, Rachel (William), Daniel (Cindy) and Carrie (Nick); grandchildren, Maude, Elly, Kate, Keaton, and Micah; siblings, Robin (Sara), Sally, Tony (Lisa), and Molly (Abe).
