For "Draw my route on map":
- Add data for cycle routes in more countries. Currently only in Switzerland.
- Make cycles routes clickable to display route number, or label route numbers directly on the map
For "Draw my route on map":
The dateline is the +/- 180° meridian, where timezone jumps from GMT-12 to GMT+12.
I removed it.
Little change last week, visible on dev.bikewm.com. Tiles design is now more useful for cycling (our tiles are now based on Mapbox "Outdoors" tiles, instead of Mapbox "Streets" tiles.).
For UK we could think about adding this:
Just because their website displays their own routes doesn't necessarily mean we are allowed or even able to do the same.
I did not find on their website an API for tiles or raw data with the routes, or a download link of the raw data. Did you research? Is their routes data freely available?
I create a repository folder for this task:
Any reason why you set edit permissions on this folder to public ? Somebody outside Bikewithme needs to add data there ? I advice against setting any folder on our Drive to public access.
No, no reason, I did that team could easily see in my mail what i was talking about
I remove access now.
Open Street Map is a worldwide source for cycling routes. See for example this website using OSM data: https://www.opencyclemap.org/
I can convert all cycling routes from OSM and add them as an optional Mapbox overlay layer on our maps.
We already discussed it in mail (below) the main point was : what is a "cycling route"?,and if we should not start only with national roads, because if you look to Belgium in OSM it looks like this:
then you said that cycling routes on OpenStreetMap are not currently available as a separate layer. We have to download and process OpenStreetMap data ourselves. Data is free, but work is required.

Asunto: Re: Cycling Routes
That's cool, thanks. I will add a few layers once we have the data. Though, this will not scale.
Ideally, we should prefer global sources with entire world or continents, rather than many local sources. Like adding cycling routes found on OpenStreetMap. This would bring us routes for the entire world.
**It's a fundamental question: what is cycling route, a route with a cycling path? a nice route with few traffic? what is national cycling route? (attach)
At the end, it's up to the associations or federations (Eurovelo (ECF), Greenways...) or governmental administration to define it, not to Openstreetmap.From the 15 continental Eurovelo routes, i think 8 already are quite well defined, we "just" need to collect the data. i did this weekend a part in France of the maybe most known Eurovelo routes, the number 6. It's really velo highway, so cool. This kind of routes need to be visible in our maps asap.//
A I explained once earlier, cycling routes on OpenStreetMap are not currently available as a separate layer. We have to download and process OpenStreetMap data ourselves. Data is free, but work is required.
At the end the certification/signalization/maintenance of the routes is not made by Openstreet map, so in my opinion better look directly to the source.
That's why i went to Brussels to meet ECF.
It will be a lot of work to maintain all these local cycling routes sources. Makes the UI more complicated for users (too many options available), and the website slower (many sources to download).
I perfectly understand that every route that we upload, need to be maintain, i.e update if there are modifications.
but I see this rather like an opportunity to contact and talk about us: "We saw your route, we would like to include it our map and we would be thankful if you can send us the gpx of the route and inform us if there is any update or modification". I think it's a good way to enter in contact with this kind of institutions and talk about us.
**Also a mouseover could make appear, link to institution with the info. So for me, it would be more important to contact these organizations and have some routes displayed in our map, than if the routes
are not perfectly update etc.But if there is a better way to do it, i'm open to discussion tomorrow. thanks.****

In our Bikewithme map interface, we show the "Cycling paths" in Switzerland, defined by Schweizmobil.
For other countries, nothing is shown yet. For Europe, we already thought about showing Eurovelo routes (ECF, Bruxelles). However ECF doesn't provide the route files, because not all the Eurovelo routes are completed and not all EU countries have the same policy about sharing this info.
So i'm collecting these info but it's demanding.
This week i've been in contact (mail below, Spanish) with associations and organisations in Spain that promotes Vias Verdes (Green ways).
Vias verdes in Spain are railway paths that have been abandoned and transform in cycling paths. They are very nice regional tourism tool.
I've been ask if we could show the Greenways in our map. The good thing is that that their routes are available in their website (nicely done, by the way) so I have collect the 112 Greenways in Spain.
If you would like to help in the task of collecting cycling routes, you can contribute by adding to this folder the Euroutes, Greenways or similar Cycling routes for other countries.
https://drive.google.com/ drive/folders/ 0B2478l0UIq6ATXFKVXRPeTlZV28? usp=sharing
Just as info, in Europe, Green ways are organised under:
http://www.aevv-egwa.org/trip- ideas/online-resources/
OSM has a network attribute for cycling routes, with 4 possibles values:
Source: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Cycle_routes#Relations
On your 2 images, each value is displayed with a different color.
If you don't want to show all cycling routes that OSM provides, then we can easily exclude some for specific countries. E.g. we could say we do not include lcn in Belgium.
See: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Belgium/Conventions/Cycle_Routes
Or we say we show only icn and ncn worldwide.
Another website that may be consider for this task,
We could also try to contact them and ask them they are interested to collaborate with us
I've extracted all cycling routes from OpenStreetMap, including regional and local routes. Now comes the design part. @jose Do you have an opinion how we should display this data ?
For example:
Choice to display each level (national, regional, local).
All routes same blue color on the map with a thick line.
No choice to enable or disable display of cycle routes, all levels are always displayed.
Different color for each level.
At low zoom levels, thin line with icon of cycle route number
At high zoom level, thick transparent line, with cycle route number along the line
In countries like Netherlands where intersections are numbered (not routes), icon with intersection number
How should we proceed?
Some questions before considering design?
Thinking about allow to the user get information about the route by clicking on the route?
First shot visible on dev:
Also on the maps for Ride details. I show international routes in blue, national in red, and other not shown. Every aspect of the cartography can be modified (labels, icons, width, colour, border, etc.) and for each zoom level separately.
- Do the routes you downloaded have an attribute for info, like a website (ECF...) ? If not, could this be added by us?
Yes, there is. As in general in OSM, it is unfortunately not done consistently. It could be added by us by editing OSM directly. (As a reminder, we have an OSM account in Bikewithme name. Password on Drive.)
Use the url key, as recommended here. Some OSM users also use the website key. Example for a EuroVelo route here.
Thinking about allow to the user get information about the route by clicking on the route?
This is possible too, but requires significantly more work than just displaying statically on the map tiles. It's a different and follow-up task, that can be done after.
- Did you also get the info the it's pave or unpaved? I guess so, because this already displayed on OSM with solid and dot lines respectively.
Yes, this could be captured. We can design cartography to look different if paved or unpaved. This adds again more work to prepare the data. It's actually more sophisticated than just paved and unpaved. There are dozen of values for the surface key, but we should categorize them into 2 buckets paved and unpaved. See the reference on OSM wiki.
- Do you know what orange are? I guess MTB but not definition in the key.
Yes, it's MTB. They didn't update their key. MTB routes are also possibly classified as international / national / regional / local. MTB / Bicycle is another possible additional criteria for cartography and selection in user interface.
Ideas from discussion with Jose:
Maybe the following must be consider as separate task:
I observed in the Komoot that the passes are highlighted. I think this can be very useful.
I was wondering if we could do the same after understanding the pass definition (elevation difference, km ...) and the deciding what are relevant.

Tax Strategy
Tax Strategy
The&Partnership is an independent marketing communications group, comprising of a number of different communication businesses, spanning ten disciplines from advertising to design, CRM, media, data, analytics, content, PR and social.
The strength of our business comes from the partnership of senior practitioners from a variety of disciplines and this collaborative approach extends beyond the delivery of our work; it is the foundation of our culture and we pride ourselves on the relationships we build by working together with our stakeholders.
At The&Partnership, we take corporate and social responsibility seriously, and there are various examples in our work that demonstrate this commitment, such as our extensive charitable work with the Princes Trust and Sentebale.
This is the Group's second published tax strategy and in developing this Tax Strategy, we have aimed to align our tax principles below to our commitment to corporate and social responsibility.
Tax compliance and reporting
We are committed to meeting all our legal and regulatory requirements in paying the correct amount of tax and meeting our tax compliance obligations. For example, in the UK, as part of this commitment, we comply with the Senior Accounting Officer ('SAO') requirements and we undertake a review of our tax processes (for Corporation Tax, VAT and Employment Taxes) as part of this process.
We seek to apply diligent professional care and judgement in our tax compliance activities, and provide sufficient evidence to support all judgements made.
Our approach to tax planning
We take a low risk approach to tax planning, and tax decisions are aligned to business and commercial strategy. Like any other business expense however, we seek to create value for our partners. As such, we may respond to tax incentives and exemptions where appropriate and in a way that is consistent with tax authority and government policy.
As appropriate, we will seek external professional tax advice to ensure we apply these incentives and exemptions legitimately, and if appropriate, we seek advance clearances from the appropriate tax authority to ensure we minimise the risk of uncertainty.
Governance and risk management
The Group is committed to the delivery of the tax strategy and this will be owned by the Group's Chief Financial
Officer who is ultimately accountable for Tax, and who is also the Group's Senior Accounting Officer.
The CFO has responsibility over The & Partnership's approach to tax on day-to-day basis which includes the identification, prioritisation and monitoring of tax risk across the business, as well as the escalation of tax risk to the Board. The ongoing monitoring of tax accounting arrangements as part of annual SAO compliance provides part of this process.
Relationships with Tax Authorities
The Group is committed to working collaboratively with tax authorities, through open and transparent dialogue to ensure it is compliant with all of its compliance and filing obligations. Wherever possible, we also seek to achieve early agreement on issues and certainty wherever possible.
This Tax Strategy document
This document meets the requirement for The&Partnership to publish its Tax Strategy as required by section 161 and section 19(2) of Schedule 19 of Finance Act 2016. It is effective for our 2019 financial year and was updated and approved by the Board in September 2019 and published in the same month.

Enterprise Plan
Okay, I'm skeptical about "get rich quick" schemes identical to everyone else. However usually speaking, the promoters of those schemes understand they're aiming at people who can't pay some huge cash to get began in business. Find all kinds of details about small businesses, right from starting a small business, to getting authorities grants, analyzing the market, and so forth.
China represents a huge opportunity to export goods in addition to import merchandise & companies. E commerce, with the advent of the web and peoples affinity for straightforward life, electronic procuring is one other hub for constructing a enterprise in Africa. Work with other well being care practices – Search for business opportunities in therapeutic massage clinics, chiropractic services and therapy facilities.
You also should determine if you will be able to build a consumer base, or whether or not what you provide is a one-time service or product. Make contact and take part on their actions to start out making contacts with different minority companies. Assumptions with elements like market demand, consumer outlook and product competency can prohibit net gross sales with your property based business.
Green businesses are businesses that aid you make a living, and at the identical time make the surroundings a much better place to stay. If a goal market just isn't present for your thought, nobody would buy your service or product. Whenever you participate in most health and wellness coaching programs they will also teach about advertising and marketing your business.
Businesses that concentrate on processing the locally grown food stuffs would in the years to come grow astronomically because of the ever current calls for for their merchandise. Internet enterprise or dot com firms are those that operate virtual. three. Private catering – this sort of business has been round for years, but, only some individuals had taken advantage of this opportunity as a result of they suppose that the market is already crowded.

The devastation in Houston is awful, I find myself unable to even watch the coverage. I want it to be known that our family is praying for those who live in Houston, have loved ones in Houston, and those that have been affected in any way, shape or form. My family and I spent a week in Houston this past February for Super Bowl 51– and needless to say, that city will forever have a special place in my heart. It is important to note that natural disaster doesn't discriminate. No amount of money, fame, status, or the nicest gates at the front of your neighborhood can protect you when something like this decides to strike. We must all stand united and do what we can with what we have– whether that means reaching out to people you know who may have been affected to remind them that they are not alone, donating money to causes that you believe in, simply spending a few extra minutes in prayer, or finally going through your closets to purge yourself of the things that you really don't need (but have had a hard time letting go of).
Rico and I were talking about what we can do to help, because truthfully, we cannot imagine losing everything. I think about how it feels when I misplace a special photograph, note, or item and that in and of itself is enough to make me sick– then I think about losing EVERYTHING, and I cannot even begin to comprehend the feeling.
Donating money is a great thing to do, especially when there is a cause that you believe in, but, we understand that not every person has "extra money" laying around to donate. But, one thing that we do know is that mostly everybody has a "junk drawer", a closet full of things that they haven't looked at in months (maybe years), and if they have children– we know that they have bins or bags of clothing that will never be used again.
This idea kind of happened on it's own while I was (finally) sorting through Luca's old clothes determining what will work for our new baby and what would never be used again (which, before Harvey, was going to the resale store). After realizing the amount of clothing, baby items and other stuff that we had around our house, the idea dawned on me. Get my lazy self together, sort through our things and send it to people that need it far more than we do (and encourage others to do the same). With the help of some amazing women who reached out to me via Instagram, we were able to pull together our connections and resources in the Atlanta area to devise a plan— which you will find below.
Let it be noted that all items are being accepted and are in great need. If you need a few examples, think along the lines of diapers, wipes, baby bottles, blankets, rubbermaid containers, coolers, toothbrushes, toothpaste, pillows, flashlights, paper plates, batteries, etc.
If you live in the Atlanta area, here is how you can help:
If you are able to bring your items directly to 1900 Century Blvd. Atlanta, GA on either Wednesday September 6th or Thursday September 7th between 10am-2pm a truck and volunteers will be waiting to help you package and load your donations, which will then be transported to Houston. All donations will be going directly to JJ Watt's Foundation where they will then be dispersed based upon people's needs in the Houston area. The truck will be trackable as it makes it's way to Houston so that you know your donations are going to a legit place & blessing those who are in need. The truck and volunteers are being provided via Hub Group!
If you are unable to bring your items to this location on Wednesday or Thursday, a few women and I have teamed up and reached out to local businesses who have graciously allowed donations to be dropped off within business hours between this weekend and Wednesday. We will then pick up the items that have been dropped and get them to the truck before it departs for Houston.
Atlanta, GA area drop off locations:
Kid To Kid Buford, GA. 3125 Woodward Crossing #610
Kid To Kid Cumming, GA. 511 Lakeland Plaza, 30040.
Brookhaven, GA: 3450 Blair Circle 30319 (Apartment Complex lobby).
** When you arrive at any of the above locations be sure to mention that you are dropping off donations for Houston that will be picked up!
If you live anywhere besides the Atlanta area, here is how you can help:
American Red Cross: visit redcross.org, call 1-800- RED CROSS or text HARVEY to 90999 to make a $10 donation.
Salvation Army: visit helpsalvationarmy.org, call 1-800- SAL-ARMY or text STORM to 51555
Save The Children US: an international organization devoted to protecting children all over the globe has established "child- friendly" places in evacuation centers in Texas and is also providing food and water. Donations can be made at savethechildren.org, and a $25 donation can be made by texting "HURRICANE" to 20222.
I don't know about you, but I think that it has been beautiful to watch a severely divided country come together to help one another in a time of great need. I am thankful that good people, like yourself, still exist here. xo, Grace

NEW JOS FOR VATELIENS: Julien now is Regional E-Commerce Senior Manager - EMEA at Melia Hotels International (Paris, France). Read about his previous position in the same company.
Are you at ease with figures and new web technologies?
You'll like Julien Marechal's job for the Melia International hotel chain! Let's meet him.
Why did you choose the hospitality industry?
For the many different cultures and kinds of work that this business has. What clinched the deal for me was:
- doing many different types of jobs in my life,
- working with different nationalities and
- travelling as opportunities presented themselves.
Why did you choose Vatel?
First of all because the school's reputation provides outlets for its alumni. When you're a Vatelien, you've already got your foot in the door for many different jobs and places to work. Especially when a Vatel graduate is the one hiring!
Then because I wanted to study abroad and more particularly in Spain. I applied to Vatel Madrid and started my Bachelor Vatel studies in 2011, two years after the School had opened.
Any memories of your time at school you'd like to share?
This will probably surprise you, but I love the almost military like inspections that some of our professors and supervisors carried out for our Vatel uniforms.
One of them was really strict and wouldn't allow a student in his classroom who didn't respect the rules and regulations of the educational values and etiquette and protocol that you have in the hospitality industry, which we were taught. So I had a lot of fun complying with the school's "rules of the game."
Any memories of your internships?
Each hotel in Spain or in England that I worked in taught me something. I would even go so far to say that each department taught me values that I use every day:
How did everything start with Melia?
As soon as I graduated, I was hired by Global Airlines Contracting, after I applied for a job there. Based in Madrid, for six months I prospected airline companies to offer them solutions in accommodations for their crew members.
Then I worked for a year in e-commerce, for the EMEA marketplace - Europe, Middle East & Africa.
Management appreciated what I was doing and in May, 2015, I had a job offer at the Melia Hotels International Headquarters in Palma de Majorca, where I would be working closely with decision-making executives. That's when I became the Digital Marketing Executive – EMEA and then Online Sales Manager France.
Tell us about this job.
The top priority is to generate traffic on our web tools. In other words, to motivate users to reserve directly on our site.
So to do that, I analyze all the communication and promotion campaigns rolled out to see of the goals were met or not.
To be successful in this type of job, you have to be at ease with figures, the web 2.0 and the NICT - new

why?!?!?! just why?
Im going crazy. Im really wanting "it" right now. I want the control. The dominance. Then part of me wanta to be held. But thats not me. I hate affection.
I freaking cried in arp thursday. We were on lesson 3 i think. After we read we talked. Somehow it came out that i cant pray. I cant feel. And in the end i cried. I ran out. I lost control. I hurt.
The 2 people who i would retake my control with are no longer at my convienience. Its taking all my will not to prowl or to call others. My number is at 22 i think. This need sickens me.
Im loosing thus battle. Im loosing myself. Im used to be hardened. I shouldnt want affection more than lust. Its confusing. It hurts.
Another thing. I gained alot of weight to prevent my addiction. I used to be really in shape and semi pretty and now rather than prevent it...... i am ugly and still giving in. I really hate myself.
Past feeling
"Learning to live with, control, and understand our emotions is a difficult process. In many cases it is seemingly less painful to simply bury those emotions rather than face them. But living a life with buried emotions is not really living. Wanting affection is normal, we all want it. Being hardened, past feeling, or numb are just ways of floating through life without facing those emotions.
Buried emotions are similar to getting a root canal at the dentist. The tooth hurts a lot, without going to the dentist it will just get worse, it won't go away on its own. You go to the dentist, he performs the root canal, and now your tooth hurts even worse! However, soon the pain begins to fade. You realize that you had forgotten what it was like to live without the pain and how good it feels. It is the same with Christ's atonement. The only requirement is that in order to do it correctly you have to do it on His terms, which means turning over everything to Him. In return He gives you peace of mind, true joy, love for self and others, and a healed soul. It is not a simple event, repentance is a process, even a way of life, or a change of how you are living your life. He never said that it would be easy, only that it would be worth it. If what you are going through is what will ensure your place in His kingdom will you be more inclined to change?
It sounds like you may have some unresolved issues stemming from poor relationships in your past. This is just a guess based on what you have posted so I may be wrong with the specific issue, but there is something there that is directly causing what you are going through right now.
You are a good person who deserves to be loved. It is important that you are able to love yourself first, because love from anywhere else cannot compensate for a lack of self love. When God sees you He does not see your mistakes, your trials, or your fears; He sees you as His child with a potential for greatness. You have that potential still. The lessons that you are meant to learn from these trials are difficult, but they are exactly what you need in order to come to Him. Don't keep Him out of your life anymore, that only alienates you from your strongest source of power, joy, and peace. Let Christ heal you, but He cannot if you will not let Him.
If you are unhappy with the way things are going then you need to try something different and yes, at times it is going to hurt.
You can pray. There is nothing you can do that would make God not want to hear from you. God is not looking to condemn, blame, shame, or belittle you. He has nothing but love for you. He does worry that you may be lost to Him, but He is waiting with open arms for you to come back to Him.
Go with God and may you find peace."

You are not tainted, you are wounded,
"and if you cried, it's because you felt something deeply. Though I don't know you, it hurts me when you speak negatively of yourself. It shows that you don't have a true understanding of yourself as a person and as a daughter of our Heavenly Father. I know that you have much to give, but you've been so severely wounded so deeply and so many times by so many people that you begin to blame the victim -- yourself.
The root of your addiction is your depression and your agony, your moment to moment torment and your terror (and your PTSD, which I'm fairly certain you have) which are the result of how poorly you've been treated and how you've responded to that treatment by others. The same is true of me and of many others who read and blog here. So we're just like everyone else. And once we understand the roots of our problems and then fill the voids and medicate the terrors and agonies inside us with the Light and Love of Christ (instead of masturbation, sex, porn, drugs, etc.), we will "lose the disposition to do evil and have only the disposition to do good" (see Mosiah 5:2).
On that long and difficult road to recovery, which will likely have many slip ups and relapses, we will learn to forgive others as well as ourselves. We will learn not to be haughty, arrogant, proud and accusatory, but rather we will learn to be meek, humble, gentle, kind, and forgiving.
All of us are worthy enough to help an elderly woman with her yard work, to put food out for the birds, to send a care package to soldiers overseas, to help a child in need, or to submit someone's name for temple work. All of us are worthy enough to volunteer for community service or to prepare meals for the homeless. You can even use some ingenuity in serving others -- think of some ways to serve that might not fit the traditional mode of service (like taking a pet to a nursing home -- but get permission first).
And all of us are worthy enough to take care of our bodies. to run and to exercise daily, to improve our fitness and physiques, and to floss every night. We don't have to commit slow suicide by "letting ourselves go."
You (and I, and many others) need one good therapist and one good friend (maybe a bishop) plus a number of good acquaintances to help us through our storms. We need to stop thinking lowly of ourselves, which is just another way of blaming the victim.
So let's stop being victims and start being winners. The way to start is through positive action. Read the scriptures every day for 20-60 minutes. Speak with the Lord in private prayer morning and night. Pray for a good friend to help you, pray that the bishop will be inspired in his counseling with you, and look for the good in others and in yourself. Prayerfully seek a good therapist to help you understand the roots of your addiction and to help you get to a place where you can heal and be well. And remember that you have your own personal cheering section right here.
So stop beating yourself to death (I say this as one who hated himself for decades, and I have learned that self hatred yields no good results). I think that the first thing you should do is change your handle from "Taintedlove" to "Angel love", or something positive like that. And never give up on yourself, no matter how many times you might relapse or slip up. If you do that, you will one day feel the touch of the Master's hand in your heart, and your life will change forever for the better, much better.
P.S. Get a copy of Elder Boyd K. Packer's "Bright Morning of Forgiveness" talk (I think you can find it online) and read it frequently, and ponder its contents and its meanings and implications daily. Let the Spirit touch your heart and begin to mend your soul."

The Spirit
"Before you blogged about not feeling the spirit. If you do not even like or want, or previously even could feel affection then how could you feel the spirit? the spirit IS one type of affection. It is God's affection and the fact that you are feeling some now and not feeling just lust shows that you are WINNING this battle!!! As far as feeling the spirit is concerned, when you have sinned as much as you have sometimes it takes a long long time of doing the right thing without messing up before God will give you the spirit back again. My entire family has struggled with sexual addiction and we have all been where you are. I went for a very long time in my life without feeling the spirit. ANd once I repented I went for a really really long time before I felt any strong manifestations. Now I have the spirit as a constant companion and he guides me every day, but getting to this point took a long time. I am no longer having sex with people, but I do still masturbate and its really hard for me when it happens. But I know that God will heal me. These things just take time."

Your number
"Forget your number dear. It is not important how many people you have had sex with. Forget it. My father was married in the temple and then cheated on his wife. He was excomunicated and has since had sex with a LOT of women before he repented. Beyond just the sex he started dealing cocaine and went to jail for three years. After he got out he spent over 40 years of having sex at least once a day juggling at least 5 girlfriends at a time, who were constantly changing. The most I have ever seen him juggle at one time is 1 wife and 6 other women. Hes been married and divorced 6 times and he has 12 children. Hes probably had sex with over 100 people. His oldest child is 40 and his youngest is 5. A year and a half ago while I was on my mission he repented. I just baptized him 2 months ago. It was wonderful!! He is 100% clean. I have absolutely no idea how he did it because I went on a mission and I still struggle with masturbation. But my dad is like that, when he decides that he is going to do something it is done, there are no questions, no giving in. In a fight one time he got stabbed in the stomach and still won the fight with his bare hands. I do know that he reads 2 chapters in the scriptures every single day without fail and that I hate it when he prays at meals because it takes FOREVER!! But its not like some prideful long windedness. Its sincere and every single word of his prayer is sincere and needed. He just has that much more dedication and faith than me I guess.
But the point is. It doesnt matter how many people you have had sex with. When you repent GOD FORGETS YOUR SINS!!!! You should too."

"Now brethren, the time has come for any one of us who is so involved to pull himself out of the mire, to stand above this evil thing, to "look to God and live" (Alma 37:47). We do not have to view salacious magazines. We do not have to read books laden with smut. We do not have to watch television that is beneath wholesome standards. We do not have to rent movies that depict that which is filthy. We do not have to sit at the computer and play with ographic material found on the Internet."

What Are the Top Tech Products for Traveling Pet Owners? If you're planning on taking a trip either with or without your pet, you'll be pleased to learn that there are a number of tech products on the market to ensure your four-legged friend is well taken care of:
- Pet-sitting apps and websites
- Automatic feeders and litter box cleaners
- Apps to keep an eye on your pet from afar
How to Take Advantage of Technology During Your Travels
It's 2018 and technology is an enormous part of life, particularly when you're vacation planning. You have apps to book your plane tickets, to find out which restaurants are near your hotel, and to find out the forecast in your destination so you know what to pack. In addition, Siri, Cortana, or Google Assistant can tell you step-by-step driving or metro directions so you don't get lost, and your digital wallet will keep your boarding passes unwrinkled and literally at your fingertips.
There's no doubt about it; every traveler can take advantage of today's latest technology. Lest you believe that apps and other forms of technology are only relevant to humans, think again: There are varieties of tech products for your pet, too, and you can put them to work for you when it's time to take a vacation.
Pet Care Services
When it's time for the humans in your family to go on vacation, your biggest hassles should be trying to figure out how you're going to get from the airport to the hotel and attempting to whittle down your list of shoes to pack. If you have a pet, however, you know that making arrangements for Buster or Fluffy can take more time than booking your own accommodations.
This doesn't have to be the case, however! A great app and site for finding a pet sitter is Rover. (Don't let the name fool you; this platform is perfect for finding a sitter for your cat as well as for your dog.) Type in the dates you'll be gone, and the program will find a sitter in or near your zip code.
This platform allows you to find a sitter who will watch your furry friend at their home or a sitter who will visit or stay at your home while you're gone. Are you going to be taking your pet on vacation with you? In that case, you'll need to find a hotel that will welcome your four-footed family member.
In addition, you might need to locate restaurants, parks, and other places of interest that will allow you to bring your dog along. BringFido will tell you exactly where your pet will be able to go in the city you're visiting. (While the site and app are geared toward dogs, hotels that accept dogs will also generally accept cats, but you should call the hotel to find out for sure.)
Automatic Feeders and Litter Box Cleaners
If you need to go away for just a day or two, your cat, assuming he or she has no special needs or health concerns, will probably be fine left home alone.
Of course, you will need to be sure that your kitty has access to plenty of fresh food and water, and you'll also want to keep the litter box clean. Here are some tech products that can care for your feline friend while you're out and about. While low-tech pet feeders (like the Petmate Pet Cafe Feeder) are an inexpensive and simple way to keep your pet fed in your absence, one issue is that they allow food to sit around getting stale if the cat doesn't eat it. Also, for kitties who tend to overindulge when given the opportunity, this isn't the healthiest way to feed your cat.
Instead, consider a programmable pet feeder such as the PetSafe Eatwell 5 Meal Automatic Feeder. You can pre-fill each section with the amount of food you want your pet to have, then it will turn at the right times, covering any uneaten food and serving up a fresh portion of kibble to your cat or small dog at mealtime.
When you go on vacation (or if you simply hate cleaning out the kitty litter box), having a self-cleaning cat box is a great way to keep your cat's bathroom fresh and hygienic. The Litter-Robot is a highly rated product with a self-cleaning function, so your cat's litter box stays clean no matter where you are.
Apps to Keep an Eye on Your Pet From Afar
When you're away from home, you might feel a bit anxious about your fur baby. What is he doing? Is she just crying and looking for you? Most of the time, cats and dogs settle down quickly when their owners leave for the day, particularly if a trusted sitter is stopping in to refresh food and give dogs a potty break.
If you're not convinced, consider a home surveillance camera designed especially for your four-footed pal. Dog Monitor is an app that can be run on any Apple or Android device to allow you to keep an eye on what your pet is doing. You can even interact with your pet using your voice; for example, if you see that your dog is chewing on a shoe or your cat is gleefully scratching the sofa, you can reprimand them and, if they decide not to ignore you, stop the bad behavior.
While Dog Monitor can be used for both dogs and cats, Candid Catmera is an Apple app that is geared toward feline friends. Get your kitty's attention with a sound or visual effect that is designed to attract a cat to see what they're up to. You can even take a photo from the device you're carrying and post it on social media. Cat selfie, anyone? Keeping track of your cat or dog while you're traveling has never been easier, thanks to these tech products that are designed especially for furry family members when their humans are away from home.

AbstractElectronic structure calculations employing hybrid functionals are used to gain insight into the interaction of carbon (C) atoms, oxygen (O) interstitials, and self-interstitials in silicon (Si). We calculate the formation energies of the C related defects Ci (SiI), Ci O i, Ci Cs, and Ci Oi (SiI) with respect to the Fermi energy for all possible charge states. The Ci (SiL) 2+ state dominates in almost the whole Fermi energy range. The unpaired electron in the Ci O i + state is mainly localized on the C interstitial so that spin polarization is able to lower the total energy. The three known atomic configurations of the Ci Cs pair are reproduced and it is demonstrated that hybrid functionals yield an improved energetic order for both the A and B-types as compared to previous theoretical studies. Different structures of the Ci Oi (SiL) cluster result for positive charge states in dramatically distinct electronic states around the Fermi energy and formation energies.

Cromer Fireworks
Crowds of locals and visitors enjoyed a dazzling and spectacular start to welcome in the New Year in Cromer – one week later than planned.
The annual New Year's Day Fireworks display – the biggest in the country – was postponed a week due to adverse weather conditions on January 1st.
The breathtaking display saw over 2,400 fireworks launched off Cromer Pier and out to sea in a show that was well worth the wait and attracted people from far and wide to the town on a still winter's day.
Spectators lined the cliff tops and promenade to watch the 14-minute extravaganza explode in the skies and on the surface of the sea.
Thousands of fireworks produced 27 sequences in the display – all preceded by a single green shell to mark the eve of the 100th anniversary of one of Cromer Lifeboat's most famous rescues which took place on January, 9 1917 – that of the Fernebo.
On that day in 1917 a green rocket was fired to mark the end of what had been a tumultuous day.
Cromer Mayor Tim Adams said: "We've had a fantastic evening, with a lot of visitors from as far afield as Cambridgeshire.
"People have come a long way to see the display, it's a calendar event for some people and they come every year."
Director of Titanium Fireworks, Simon Page, said: "We are incredibly proud to have fired the display this year.
"It all went to plan and we're very pleased to get the show we wanted to do on New Year's Day up today.
"Cromer Pier is a unique setting, it is in good condition which means we can be quite creative and we're already thinking about new ideas for 2018. It's all about trying to make the most of the architecture of the pier, it's a great shape to work with."
"Some of the 150 displays we fire each year are work but others unbridle our creativity and we relish the challenges and opportunities of firing from an iconic structure like Cromer Pier.
"Chairman of the Fireworks committee Jim Bond said: "It was again, better than ever, it continues to wow year-on-year.
"The weather was perfect so we got patterns of smoke in the air too.
"The display makes the most of this unique setting and has drawn lots of excited and complimentary comments.
"The hard work put in by the many volunteers, and the co-operation of many local services and businesses makes this a particularly satisfying event.
"Local attractions and traders opened up their shops, eateries, museums and businesses on the day.
After the show, people took to social media to share their thoughts on the display with one visitor saying 'Cromer's delayed New Year fireworks were worth the wait', with another saying 'Gorgeous firework bouquet tonight over Cromer pier, good things come to those who wait', another said 'Well worth a 300 mile round trip for'.
Crowds donated a total of just over £8,000 to the event's bucket collection which will be split between funding next year's display and a grant fund for local Cromer charities to apply to.
Mr Bond said: "The committee are extremely pleased with the amount raised and would like to thank everyone for their support."
For the fifth year running the organisers are running a Photography Compeition which is open to all non-professional photographers who attended the event.
Did you take a photo of the fireworks on the day?
If so, you have until midday on Monday, January 16 2017 to enter your images.
The winner will have their image turned into the official poster for the 2018 New Year's Day Firework event as well as use in other promotional material. Local electrical retailer Hughes Plus are also offering the winner the latest 43" HD TV.
Manager of Hughes in Cromer, Simon Morton said: "Once again it is a pleasure for us to support this amazing event in our town.
"This year's winning photographer will be rewarded with a 43" LG LCD television boasting Full HD resolution, built-in Freeview HD and a Virtual Sound Surround.
"The quality and quantity of entries increases each year and, hopefully many will be tempted to place their own entry for the first time.
"I would like to thank all the members and volunteers that help to make such an iconic and eagerly awaited Norfolk event a reality each year and attract so many visitors to sample the atmosphere Cromer has to offer."
Chairman of the Fireworks committee Jim Bond said: "The annual New Year's Day Fireworks have been capturing people's imagination for eighteen years, every year we see hundreds of fabulous photographs of the event in the press and online. We are looking for photographs that really capture the spirit of the event."

Underwater organisms can be quite fragile, so scientists are always working on robots that can capture and handle them gently. As this video by Wyss Institute shows, soft grippers can now 3D printed on ships to sample different types of sea life.
More like this ➡ here
The sampling device is soft, flexible, and customizable, so modifications can be made without researchers having to return to a land-based laboratory. Pretty neat, don't you think?

There are 4 different blood types, and, of course, they have a much greater impact than people think.
There are four groups of blood types – A, B, AB, and O.
In addition, the frequency of blood types is firstly dependent on our origin, that is, the genetics associated with and the group of people we belong to.
When blood types are usually determined:
– Before surgery
– Before giving blood transfusions
– During the first pregnancy examination and also before conception
– Before a person gives blood
– Before a person gives a transplant organ
– In case you want to determine the blood relationship of two people
Experts say that by choosing foods that are advised for your blood type, and by avoiding or limiting those who are not in the group that is desirable, we can put in order their weight, but also avoid health disorders like some autoimmune diseases, allergies, and digestive disorders.
Healthy eating and also consuming foods is the work of Dr. Peter D'Adamo.
Dr. Peter D`Adamo based his work on the relationship between food ingredients and blood groups, or antigens that a certain blood group carries.
Blood types have different diets
Blood group O should avoid milk
People of the blood group O are considered 'hunters', and also possess the following characteristics:
– Carnivorous
– Strong digestive system
– Great bodily endurance
People with this blood type have a lot of gastric acids and can also easily break down proteins from meat.
Because they eat heavy food, they also need to practice physical activity (running, martial arts, fast walking …).
The diet of people with blood type O should mainly consist of foods of animal origin and also certain vegetables.
Fruits are eaten in small quantities, especially figs and also plums are recommended.
At the same time, milk and milk products are completely prohibited.
From meat is especially recommended low-fat meat, lamb, beef, veal, poultry, chicken, and wild meat.
Also, for people in the blood group O, there are foods that stimulate weight gain.
Those foods are all products of wheat, corn, beans, lentils, cabbage, kale, and cauliflower.
Foods that stimulate the weight loss process are meat, liver, fish, seafood, seaweed, kale, spinach, and broccoli.
Nutrition of blood group A should be based on herbal foods
According to Dr. Peter D'Adamo, people of blood type A are breeders.
In addition, accordingly, they should be real vegetarians.
They have a sensitive digestive system and should choose plant nutrition, plenty of fruits, vegetables, and cereals.
On that way, they will not accumulate excessive pounds.
Blood group A is created after people began to grow food during the Neolithic revolution.
The other way was people that eat more and more foods of plant origin (cereals).
Most people with this blood type live in the Mediterranean.
Those are areas around the Adriatic Sea, the Aegean Sea, Spain, Turkey, and the Balkans.
Nutritionists for those people recommend food primarily from vegetable origin, and moderate physical activity.
They need to practice walking, yoga, tai chi …
Nutritionists do not recommend for those people foods of animal origin.
Meat, milk and milk products are not on the list of desirable foods.
It is also desirable to enter nuts and healthy natural seeds as they provide protein in the diet.
Ingredients that stimulate weight gain are meat, dairy products, beans, and also wheat.
At the same time, vegetable oils, soy products, vegetables, and pineapples stimulate slimming.
Of the meat in the neutral category are chicken and turkey, so it can be eaten in small quantities.
People with this type of blood need to avoid the other types of meat.
The fish is allowed to eat in the amount of three to four times a week.
Blood group B can have the most diverse diet
It developed in the area of Tibet and the Himalayas between 10 and 35 thousand years before Christ.
The then people were nomads, who grew cattle, and therefore they were eating all sorts of food.
They ate everything – from meat to dairy products and also cereals.
Most people with this blood type live in the Far East (Japan, Mongolia, China, India).
However, blood group B has reached the German and Austrian areas.
According to Dr. Peter D'Adamo, people of blood type B in their characteristics are nomads.
They have:
– A strong digestive system
– Also, they have the most flexible selection of nutrition
Therefore, they can take foods of both – plant and animal origin.
People on this diet can freely eat meat, fish, dairy products, green vegetables, cereals, and all kinds of vegetables.
From meat, this diet recommends a low-fat red meat.
The most desirable is wild meat, lamb, and rabbit.
At the same time, chicken and pork are not recommended.
Foods that encourage weight gain include corn, lentils, peanuts, sesame, buckwheat, and wheat.
Green vegetables, meat, eggs, and dairy products are foods that encourage weight loss.
Also, shells, ham, bacon, and chicken should be thrown out.
Wheat, rye, tomato, and also corn need to be restricted.
Blood group AB is a mixed diet for A and B
This is the youngest blood group formed during the barbaric campaigns 1000 years ago.
It`s happened by mixing the Caucasian population of blood group A and the Asian population of blood group B.
It has up to five percent of the population.
The people in this group have also inherited the antibodies of both blood groups.
In addition, they developed specific antibodies against infections.
In the diet of people with this blood type, certain contradictions occur.
People of blood type AB can eat everything that people eat blood type A and B but in more moderate amounts.
Therefore, they can consume foods of animal and vegetable origin.
They can eat meat, fish, dairy products, fruits, vegetables, cereals, and legumes.
In order to lose weight, it is necessary to limit the intake of wheat and meat.
They need to use the protein intake that is supplemented with vegetables, soy, tofu (soybean cheese).
Foods that stimulate weight gain are red meat, beans, seeds, corn, buckwheat, wheat.
Foods that stimulate the weight loss process are tofu, fish, seafood, dairy products, green vegetables, sea algae, pineapples (large quantities).
Can you eat accordingly for your blood type?
