First year graduate student Aria Smith has been selected to attend the 2014 Graduate Cohort for Women workshop in California. The workshop is presented by the Computer Research Association's Committee on the Status of Women in Computing Research. The goal of the workshop is to increase the ranks of senior women in computing by building and mentoring nationwide communities of women during their graduate studies.
"I'm excited about seeing all the other women in the computing sciences who will be there. And the workshops! I'll be able to interact and network with so many women from all over the country." In addition to the other participants, Smith will meet with approximately twenty senior computing researchers and professionals who will share information and personal insights on graduate school, internship opportunities, professional networking, and career prospects. The Grad Cohort Workshop is in its tenth year. It will be held April 11-12th at the Hyatt Regency in Santa Clara.

One section in excellent article "Patterns of Parallel Programming" is dedicated to idiom "Speculative processing". In brief we can start multiple computation in parallel (utilizing advantages of multiple cores), take first result and ignore others. Unfortunatly F# library doesn't provide builtin primitive for this strategy. Code below contains sketch of possible solution.
open System.Threading
type Async with
static member Any(asyncs : seq<Async<'T>>) =
let value = ref false
let cts = new CancellationTokenSource()
Async.FromContinuations(fun (cont, econt, ccont) ->
// accepts result value only once, subsequent calls will be ignored
let kont v =
do lock value (fun () ->
match !value with
| true -> ()
| false ->
value := true
cont v
// runs specified computation in new thread
let wrapper a = async {
do! Async.SwitchToNewThread()
return! a
for a in asyncs do
Async.StartWithContinuations(wrapper a, kont, econt, ignore, cancellationToken = cts.Token)
We wrap specified asyncs so they will be started in threadpool threads. After first successful completion result is passed to awaiting continuation and cancellation is signalled. Subsequent results (if any occured) will be ignored.

No matter where we live, all of us want to connect with others. These connections are how we turn the large and anonymous around us into personal, meaningful lives. Tempe Community Council helps build the connections between us all to strengthen the fabric of our community.
Serving the community since 1972, Tempe Community Council (TCC) is committed to addressing immediate and long-term human service needs in Tempe. A nonpartisan organization, TCC serves as a means for individuals and organizations to work together to identify and plan for needed human service programs in our community. Our unique model of including residents to make decisions is an example of what makes Tempe a great city.
TCC nurtures Tempe's sense of community where children, seniors, families and individuals care for and about one another
TCC's mission is to connect those in need with those who care. TCC does this by; convening community, conducting research, determining priorities, implementing effective programs and exemplifying prudent stewardship of resources.
TCC is committed to building a community that:
Tempe Community Council's staff and consultants serve a 30 member volunteer board of directors. Volunteers establish policy, identify programs, and work with the staff to implement programs in the community.
TCC was formed to give Tempeans a central place to discuss needs for human services and ways the needs could be met. TCC incorporated and received its 501(c)(3) tax exemption in 1976 and became a United Way agency soon thereafter.
TCC is dedicated to working in partnership with the City of Tempe, community organizations and dedicated individuals to serve as planner, researcher, advocate and resource to advance the human services in Tempe for all our residents.

It was ALL IN THE WRIST when comic strip artist Chester Gould first outfitted Dick Tracy with that two-way radio-watch back in 1946. And it's still all in the wrist today, as manufacturers try to dazzle us with new gadgets. Yahoo tech columnist David Pogue takes their measure.
This story was originally broadcast on March 23, 2014.
The history of computers has been a steady march towards smaller. Computers were once the size of rooms, then the size of TV sets, then the size of phones.
In fact, computers are now so small, they can nestle quite nicely on your wrist. Eat your heart out, Dick Tracy!
"One good way to think about it is a companion for your smartphone," said Mark Spoonauer, the editor-in-chief of Laptop magazine, "'cause a lot of us look at our phone up to 100 times a day. So a smartwatch could actually save you time."
Spoonauer has reviewed most of the first smartwatches. He showed Pogue the Pebble Steel, to which you can directly download apps from the Pebble AppStore or iTunes.
"There are some big names behind it, like CNN, ESPN and Yelp," said Spoonauer.
You can receive texts (but not send them). "That's why it's more of a companion and not a replacement to your smartphone," said Spoonauer.
There are currently 300 apps available for the Sony SmartWatch 2, including Facebook.
You probably haven't seen a lot of smartwatches on real people's wrists. So far, there's been more hype around smartwatches than sales.
Maybe that's because they're still so bulky -- it's like wearing a VCR on your arm -- or that they need charging every couple of days.
Or maybe because they're unnecessary. I mean, your phone is right here. How much effort do you really save having its functions on your wrist?
But in one area, wrist electronics make tremendous sense: monitoring your health. The FitBit band tracks your activity during the day, and your sleep at night; it sends graphs to your phone, wirelessly.

Asking for a Raise: A Series of Conversations
by Mike Dang
This series is brought to you by TurboTax Federal Free Edition.
November 9th, Gchat
Me: So I just met with BOSS and he's giving me a lot more things to do because DUDE left. I'm doing three people's jobs now. I should negotiate a raise, right?
PROJECT MANAGER: yes, I think you should try.
tell him that the situation was different when you accepted your position
and at this point you're absorbing two jobs.
you def have to make your case….tell him you've made plenty of sacrifices (shortening your vacation after DUDE left) and that you're ready to step up but that you have to be compensated.
Me: Gosh, I'm nervous. I don't have a lot of experience negotiating.
PROJECT MANAGER: this is your chance to get better at it
November 10th, Gchat
Me: So, I was talking with PROJECT MANAGER about what BOSS is asking me to take on yesterday, and I'm thinking maybe I don't want to be that guy who always asks for more money when he's asked to to do something more.
TECH GUY: well, you actually have leverage here
because you're the only one who can take that work on
Me: I guess so.
TECH GUY: no, I'm serious.
you're in a prime spot to get whatever you ask for…
of course, you're not going to be like "give me a private jet and $200,000"
Me: Haha. Yeah. Okay, I'm going to do it.
November 22nd, Gchat
WORK WIFE: have you decided what to do about asking for more money
Me: It's hard! Like, it's easy to say you're going to do it, but it's hard to actually get a meeting. And then actually ask for it.
WORK WIFE: oh, I totally know
but I just feel like it's so important for you to do it!
you work, like, 500 X harder than everyone else.
if you didn't show up to work, there would be no company
Me: I know, I know. You know, I also feel like I'm mostly a writer and editor here, and writers just don't get paid a lot?
WORK WIFE: who cares? the person sitting across from you probably makes 5 times as much as you do
Me: That's true.
WORK WIFE: 🙁 can you do it by e-mail?
Me: I don't think that's how you do it.
I just googled it. "Don't discuss your raise with him by email, at the water cooler, or by telephone." You're supposed to set up a meeting and do it in person.
WORK WIFE: That makes sense. 🙁
November 26th, Face-to-face
Me: Can you schedule a meeting with me and BOSS?
BOSS'S ASSISTANT: I will give you an available time, and you should e-mail him to set it up.
Me: Okay, sounds good. Thank you.
BOSS'S ASSISTANT: Monday at 11 a.m. You have 30 minutes with him. E-mail him and let me know what he says.
November 26th, E-mails
Subject: Time to chat?
From: Mike Dang
Date: November 26
To: BOSS
Hi Boss,
I'd like to set up some time with you to chat. Can you let me know when you're free? ASSISTANT says you are available on Monday at 11 a.m.
Thank you,
Subject: Re: Time to chat?
From: BOSS
Date: November 26
To: Mike Dang
ok. What is the topic?
Subject: Re: Time to chat?
From: Mike Dang
Date: November 26
To: BOSS
The amount of work that I do has changed significantly and though I'm more than happy to step up, I feel that I'm currently undervalued and was hoping to get a salary increase. I'd love to be able to have to discuss this with you in more detail.
Thank you,
Subject: Re: Time to chat?
From: BOSS
Date: November 26
To: Mike Dang
ok. let's do it. set up the time.
November 26th, Gchat
Me: I'm talking to him on Monday.
FRIEND: how much are you going to ask for?
Me: I'm going to ask him to double my salary.
Me: I mean, I'm doing three people's jobs at this point, and I know I'm not going to get that. He's going to try to negotiate whatever number I give him. So I'm going to ask high and then negotiate from there.
FRIEND: well it sounds like you're prepared
Me: It's not like I'm money hungry. I just feel like your salary reflects how much a company values you. And this isn't going to be my last job. I want whatever company I work for next to know that I was valued here.
FRIEND: look at you!
November 29th, Face-to-face
BOSS: Let's get some coffee and talk.
Me: Thanks for meeting with me.
BOSS: Where do you want to start?
Me: Well, I made a list of everything I'm doing right now. Here.
BOSS: Yeah, I know you're taking on a lot. But you just started doing these things. I think I need to see you step up before I can offer you anything.
Me: I understand, but I feel like I have been stepping up. I cut my one week vacation down to one day to get some of those things on that list done. I'm at the office 12 hours a day — more than anyone else here. I need to feel valued here, or else I'll go somewhere else where I'm more appreciated.
BOSS: Okay, how much do you want?
Me: I'm worth $100,000. I know there are people at this company earning more than that.
BOSS: Well, those people are more experienced than you. You're still pretty young.
Me: It doesn't matter how old I am. It matters what I'm doing for you.
BOSS: I can't give you that. I just can't.
Me: What can you give me?
BOSS: Do you want more equity? I can give you more equity.
Me: I want my salary to reflect what I'm worth here.
BOSS: Give me another number. Please.
Me: $80,000. I'm worth it.
BOSS: Will you consider something lower? Plus, more equity?
Me: Sure.
BOSS: Tell you what. Let's see how you step up in the next two months, and we'll revisit this conversation in February. You need to give me some time.
Me: Um. Okay.
BOSS: February. I promise we can discuss this again in February.
November 29th, Gchat
WORK WIFE: how are you doing??
Me: A little sad. I just had a chat with BOSS. He said he doesn't want to give me a raise right now. I feel like I work really hard and am undervalued.
WORK WIFE: whoa
that really surprises me
Me: Well, basically, he said he wants to see me step up a little more.
WORK WIFE: i don't know how that's possible
Me: Right, which makes me sad.
WORK WIFE: get another offer
Me: Oh for sure, if I don't get a raise, I'm quitting — with or without a job.
November 30th, Gchat
Me: So I got the increase in rates for freelancers approved. Everyone gets a raise!
WORK WIFE: everyone but mikey 🙁
December 12th, Gchat
LUNCH BUDDY: are u ok over there?
U look stressed out!
Me: I am totally stressed out. I just have a lot to do. I was here until 9 p.m. yesterday, and then stayed up to 1 a.m. to finish work. And then I came back in at 7 a.m.
i would talk to someone about this.
Me: Everyone here is aware of what's going on.
LUNCH BUDDY: what do PROJECT MANAGER and WORK WIFE think?
Me: They told me to quit at the holiday party.
LUNCH BUDDY: do it.
ur awesome.
U will find another job in a heartbeat
January 16th, Gchat
FRIEND: i'd love to see you. you've been a little MIA
you've been working really hard lately?
Me: Um, yes. Totally hard. The hardest that I've ever worked in my life actually!
FRIEND: oh lord! mike…
is there an end in sight? or anything you can do?
Me: Hah, I guess I can quit and find another job
February 5th, Face-to-face
HUMAN RESOURCES: Have a second to chat?
Me: Sure.
HUMAN RESOURCES: Let's go in the conference room.
Me: Okay.
HUMAN RESOURCES: So the good news is that BOSS is giving you a raise. Everyone appreciates what you've been doing around here. You deserve the world. And we wish we could give you the world.
Me: But…
HUMAN RESOURCES: Listen, we're going to give you a 20 percent raise, and a little bit of equity. Okay? You're okay with that?
Me: That's the most you can offer?
HUMAN RESOURCES: That's the most. And if you decide to go somewhere else, that's up to you.
Me: Well, it's not what I expected, but I'll take it.
HUMAN RESOURCES: Perfect! You'll see it reflected immediately in your next paycheck.
Me: Thank you.
HUMAN RESOURCES: Thanks Mike!
February 5th, Gchat
WORK WIFE: HEY. did you get your raise?
Me: Hi! Yeah. He was like, "We want to give you the world — and you deserve the world — but we can't give you the world." But they increased my salary by 20 percent, which is still disappointing considering everything, but I'm glad I got it.
WORK WIFE: okay whew. im glad they at least did that. and also didn't try to pretend that it was enough.
Me: Yeah, I'm pretty sure I was going to quit if I didn't get anything. Okay. Back to work.
Mike Dang knows what's he's worth.

Sports bodies be freed from politicians: Nitish
"To my mind, the sports bodies, be it committees or associations, should be kept off from interference and entry of politicians, irrespective of one`s stature to help further promote sports in the country," Kumar suggested while talking to reporters on sidelines of the "Janata Darbar" programme.
He was, however, quick to add that his comment should not be misconstrued as it was not not directed to anybody.
Kumar was replying to a query as to whether his comment was directed towards Union Agriculture Minister Sharad Pawar or RJD supremo Lalu Prasad.
"The politicians should refrain from bringing politics in games," he said.
Kumar stressed that the cricket players from the state should unite first for setting up a Cricket Academy in Bihar to pave the way for the state government taking up their cause with the BCCI for recognition.
To another question, he said the new Industrial Promotion Policy of the state would be formulated by May 2011 and the draft policy for according the Information Technology sector the status of industry was ready.
The Industrial Promotion Policy was launched in 2006 and it is still in operation.
Referring to the CAG highlighting pendency of Detailed Contingent bills for over Rs 11000 crore against the drawal of Abstract Contingent bills, Chief Minister said it was "a routine matter."
"It is the constitutional obligation of the CAG to carry on audit and account," he said, adding the Finance and other concerned departments had already been asked to submit the DC bills.
"I have taken a note of the matter during my meeting with Chief Secretary and necessary steps are being taken for expediting the submission of DC bills," Kumar said, adding whatever recommendations were being made by the CAG the state government would strictly adhere to it.
On present power crisis gripping Bihar, the Chief Minister said the state had to depend on the supply from the central pool for another four years. "We will be able to set up power plants in Bihar in next four years to cater to the state`s requirements," he said.

Misadventures of Yoshi and Mario launches!
Today marks the momentous date of the launch of Misadventures of Yoshi and Mario! Comics coming soon!
Misadventures of Yoshi and Mario
An old comic i made/started a year ago involving Yoshi and Mario. Yoshi was basically turned into a little girl instead of the usual dino figure. This idea was first imagined by nejinoki from deviantart and made a comic out of it. http://nejinoki.deviantart.com/art/Yoshi-girl-115466932 Warning: The first pages/chapter might be a bit too disturbing for others but after that, its a bit more acceptable (or mabye not XD)

John Butler Yeats, Frontispiece portrait of W. B. Yeats, 1886. In Mosada: A Dramatic Poem by W. B. Yeats, Dublin: Sealy, Bryers, and Walker, 1886.
The Early Drama
In one of his last publications, an essay explaining how and why he began to write, W.B. Yeats recalls his initial creative efforts. He mentions – in an uncharacteristically modest way – "three plays, not of any merit" that he had written in his teens. 1 Yeats is curiously brief in describing this early work, which he dismisses as imitative and undeveloped. Scholars have tended to follow suit, underrating his plays – particularly his earliest attempts – in critical appraisals of his work. But it is worth noting that Yeats's earliest writing was in the form of verse drama and narrative rather than lyric poems, and that the themes he developed in this work later informed much of his poetry. His interests in the occult and magic, unsatisfied love and desire, mesmerizing women, the supernatural and mythology are all evident in the early plays and return as preoccupations in his later writing.
Indeed, as Bernard O'Donoghue attests, even the "magnificent language of Yeats's later lyric poetry was incubated in the plays" that he wrote as a young man. 2 O'Donoghue divides Yeats's dramatic career into three categories: the early playwriting, which concluded with the first version of The Countess Cathleen (1892); a sustained dramatic period in the first decade of the 20th century, one of collaboration and revision, and marked by the appearance of the nationalist play, Cathleen ni Houlihan (1902); and a final period in which his drama became more experimental, symbolic and esoteric. The early period has received the least critical attention, owing in part to the admittedly rudimentary style of this period's plays and to Yeats's own misgivings over their aesthetic value. Moreover, because the early plays have been described, not unfairly, as "deeply conventional" and "utterly unIrish," they are often overlooked in favor of his later work. 3 But these initial creative attempts reveal the influences that shaped his emerging poetic, and against which he reacted in his later work.
Title page, 1886. In Mosada: A Dramatic Poem by W. B. Yeats, Dublin: Sealy, Bryers, and Walker, 1886.
Each of Yeats's early plays feature dominant female characters as magicians or enchanting temptresses wielding occult powers, and most were written before he had met Maud Gonne, said to be the muse for his mythologizing of women. Vivien and Time, the revised Time and the Witch Vivien, The Island of Statues and Mosada all portray heroines who are by turns sinister, beautiful, dangerous and cruel. Love and Death is no exception; its heroine, Ginevra, callously murders her father and sister in pursuit of her immortal lover. In 1915, Yeats confessed of his younger self, "women filled me with curiosity and my mind seemed never long to escape from the disturbance of my senses, I was a romantic, my head full of the mysterious women of Rossetti and those hesitating faces of [Edward] Burne-Jones which seemed always anxious for some Alastor at the end of a long journey." 4 The sense of unfulfilled desire to which Yeats alludes is evident in his early poetry, too. Female characters assume textual and symbolic significance, but where they are powerful and decisive in the verse drama, they are often dreamy, ethereal and sensuous in Yeats's love lyrics. The context of desire and death remains the same, as does the theme of romantic and sexual frustration. Yeats's lyric speakers are in thrall to the woman's beauty and at her mercy; she is enchanting but potentially dangerous in the power she wields over him.
Love and Death, written in April 1884, when Yeats was eighteen, receives only a glancing mention in his autobiography, Reveries over Childhood and Youth (1915), but his description confirms that the play is of a piece with his other early drama:
I was writing a long play on a fable suggested by one of my father's early designs. A king's daughter loves a god seen in the luminous sky above her garden in childhood, and to be worthy of him and put away mortality, becomes without pity and commits crimes, and at last, having made her way to the throne by murder, awaits his coming among her courtiers. One by one they become chilly and drop dead, for unseen by all but her, her god is in the hall. At last he is at her throne's foot and she, her mind in the garden once again, dies babbling like a child. 5
Like the other plays from this period, Love and Death features an otherworldly setting and a powerful female protagonist, whose death is dramatized as the play's inevitable climax. Class and gender divisions are clear, but the characters exist in a world free from economic concerns. Male characters, like King Ralph, Ginevra's father and the king, are weak compared to the women, who exercise control over the men. Just as he would elegize women in later lyrics, Yeats here introduces the trope of the female protagonist's death; but unlike the love elegies, in which the male speaker describes the female beloved's death, Ginevra "narrates and performs both her claim to power and her death, speaking until language meets mortality." 6 Ireland is conspicuous for its absence from this and other early plays, but when Yeats did begin to dramatize his nation, he returned to mythic and symbolic female characters and to the tension between power and mortality.

A New Direction for Faruniverse
A few days ago on Tenkar's Tavern, the proprietor of said establishment wrote a post in support of a gamer who had lost his wife. At the end of the post, Erik mentioned something along the lines of "it's your community." Since then, that line has stuck with me and got me to thinking about the gaming community. I think I have been reluctant to step into it online just because of online nonsense and negativity in general. But after reading that line, I thought about all of the people that have supported our projects and products. People have sent us pictures of their kids and students playing our games. Gaming is a community and I am part of that. How I choose to handle my participation is up to me. But choosing to remain on the sidelines in the hobby I have loved for 30+ years is bullshit and a disservice to those who have inspired, supported, and helped me along the way. Silence is a sin in this matter and so I seek redemption.
Keeping this in mind, most of the time my posts are about Far Away Land and my own projects and work. I play a lot of games and there are a lot of games and mechanics and people who inspire me. There are projects and games I love that I never speak of. There are Kickstarter projects that I've backed that have never heard from me. There are people posting awesome things constantly that I never respond to, even though I really enjoy what they are creating. I know I can't respond to everything I like, but I can make an effort to crawl out of my own fantasy world and help others as I have been helped.
In an effort to make this crawl, Faruniverse is going to expand into the realm of other people's works. I will begin to put the word out about products and projects I back and play. I will review and talk about the games I play, the blogs I read, and the people who do creative things I enjoy. There is no shortage of awesomeness and awesome people in the gaming community. When I'm told that something I made inspired someone or entertained them, I feel good. I want other people to feel that way as well.

yes I believe "dirty dancing" should be allowed on Dancing with the Stars. Yes it is technically a "family show" but all styles of dance should be able to be showcased, as it is a form of art. Some styles of dance may be considered "dirty" in one country, but not another. I don't think we should censor a stylistic choice. Miley Cyrus has done more "dirty dancing" than Janel Parrish did on dancing with the stars.
I love that description dirty dancing. What does it mean? And to who is it concerned or directed to? When that movie came out, it was considered dirty then for the time period. Now with the younger generation, that dancing is for seniors in senior homes. So what is dirty dancing?
Dirty Dancing is just plain wrong and shouldn't be on TV, much less a show that is watched by kids and teens. We need to ban all kinds of sexual dancing on that show. The show is bad enough with skimpy costumes. Can't we just have some family entertainment already?
No, because dirty dancing is not condoned by most societies and religions.Dirty dancing is a routine that should be done in privacy maybe in the nightclubs and other adult places,moreover this kind of dance should never be allowed in any place where children are present such as the dancing with the stars show.

La Boqueria
Not too long ago, but it already feels like a lifetime, I spent 4 beautiful days in Barcelona with my dear friend and confectionery companion Anina. Being an owner/employee, its difficult for me to vacation since it means that I have to say no to clients, and aside from very rare occasion, that's something I never do. It requires planning ahead, and although I'm a planner, I'm not the type to know what I'll be doing 6 months from now, so this short, sweet impromptu trip was a perfect getaway. Still, all things culinary were never far from my mind, and in fact were a great reason to take on the adventure.
A highlight of the trip was the La Boqueria, a closed in food market specializing in just about anything you could want to eat... and some that no matter how much drinking was going on, I never would try. I'd like to think I'm an adventurous eater, but I'd be lying to myself. But even though there were more things I wasn't interested in eating that there were,
(did you see his teeth?) I just fell in love with the place, and somehow, almost daily, we kept finding ourselves nearby, pretending it was by chance, stopping in once again to stroll the isles and feel the inspiration.
From the moment you enter, you're hit with colors of all kinds... stroll around a bit and hit a tapas bar, buy some calves heads, teeth included, and taste a mangosteen for the very first time.... okay, truth told, I ate the nasty bitter part before I figured out where the sweet juicy part was, but I'm pretty sure the first person to try one did the very same thing.
More than anything, our strolls through La Bouqueria made me long for something just as wonderful at home. Since moving to Williamsburg, BK, I tend to plan my trips into the city along with Union Square's farmers market schedule, and I go out of my way to head down to the Fulton Fish Market for the New Amsterdam market, but still long for those kinds of markets where there is nothing you can't find, arranged and organized into a vivid, almost magical display. Barcelona, Montreal, amazing markets that I can only dream could be inspiration for something just as rich here at home.

Darjeeling: The Darjeeling Himalayan Railway (DHR) has started its regular toy-train service between New Jalpaiguri and Darjeeling from last Sunday.
The service was suspended on January 5, 2016 due to some shortage of diesel engines. Next day, it was again rescheduled for thrice a week, which disappointed huge toy train lovers.
"Following the demand, Darjeeling Himalayan Railway started its regular service between New Jalpaiguri (NJP) and Darjeeling," said New Jalpaiguri station director Partha Sarati Seal.
According to Seal, every day a train from NJP and another from Darjeeling are running between in two stations.
"We usually running six pare "joy ride" but following the tourist season we increased the number of trains and now it is ten. It was very important to increase the fare of the train for its future, toy train lovers definitely cooperate with this for its better future," he added.
On the other hand, welcoming the decision, a tourists said, "it's good that they started regular service. Now anyone can get a chance to ride o toy train. Authority should focus on the services inside the coach like AC, toilets and also on food."
Samrat Sanyal, a local tour operator said that the DHR authority should promote toy train on a larger scale.
"Most of the time it is seen that they suspended their service sometimes not which is a big trouble for domestic as well as international tourists, because it is totally heritage," said the local.
It is noted that two massive landslides, which occurred on 2011 at Paglajora, near Kerseong, totally cut off the toy train service between New Jalpaiguri and Darjeeling.
Later the DHR authority also raised its fares for the 16km Darjeeling-Ghoom joy rides on steam locomotives to Rs. 1300 from February 1st 2017.
The diesel rides for the same journey has also been raised to Rs. 800 per passenger. The fare for the 87 km journey from New Jalpaiguri (NJP) to Darjeeling has risen to Rs.1285 from the significantly lower Rs. 360 in first clas

A study by MYOB Enterprise Solutions reveals the widening divide between online-savvy and online-cautious SMEs.
The March 2014 MYOB Business Monitor, which surveyed 1032 SMEs, indicated that a higher proportion of online-savvy businesses reported revenue growth in the year to February 2014 and expect future revenue growth than those without online technologies. They also reported higher economic confidence and more work/sales in their short-term pipeline.
The growth expectations of online-savvy businesses are likely fuelled by their current workload. Almost half of SMEs who use cloud technology and over two fifths with a website and a social media site reported increased sales or work in their short-term pipeline. In contrast, slightly more than one quarter of SMEs without a website reported more pipeline work.
The study of the SMEs also found an increase in the use of online technologies. The proportion with a website is now 42%, up from 38% six months ago. A similar trend is seen among those using social media (39%, up from 33%), and cloud computing (33%, up from 16%).
The use of tablets such as an iPad or other devices has risen to 27% from 24% six months ago. Smartphone usage was slightly down from 46% to 43% in the same period. A similar proportion of operators don't have an online presence for their business, at 43%.
MYOB chief strategy officer John Moss observes that the difference between online businesses and those that don't have an online presence is marked across a range of business performance measures.
Based on MYOB's research into SMEs' use of online technologies over the years, it can be concluded that businesses with an online presence reach more people and are more engaged with their customers than those without. This translates to stronger business performance. For example, those with a website are 56% more likely to see annual revenue rise, and those who use cloud computing are 30% more likely to do so. Businesses that embrace online technologies also have more work in their short-term pipeline.
Given the increasingly widening digital divide among SMEs, MOYB believes it's time for more business operators to take a look at the benefits of easy-to-use online technology for the future health of their business.
Highlights of March 2014 MYOB Business Monitor
SMEs with a website are more positive about the economy, with nearly one third expecting an improvement within 12 months, compared to nearly one quarter of businesses without a website. Similarly, online businesses are more likely to be making a contribution to wider economic growth, including improved job opportunities for Australians.
The top five online services used by business owners and managers were email at 76%, online banking at 69%, social networking at 29%, buying products and services online at 22%, and email marketing, VOIP and file sharing - each at 21%.
LinkedIn is the most popular business social media platform, with 18% of SME operators using their profiles to connect with colleagues and other business people. 17% have a Facebook page for their business, while 8% have a Google+ business page. 6% communicate via Twitter, while 5% use YouTube as a vehicle to connect with customers.
When looking at online business activity by mainland states, Western Australia is the most connected, with 37% of businesses using cloud computing and 19% with a business website and social media site. South Australia was least likely to use cloud computing (21%) and a business website and a social media site (14%).
In terms of industry, those in finance and insurance were the most likely to use cloud computing (42%) while operators in agriculture, forestry and fishing were the least likely (12%). Operators in retail and hospitality were the most likely to have a business website and a social media site (25%) while those in agriculture, forestry and fishing were the least likely (6%).
Comparing operators via business tenure, operators in establishing businesses were the most likely to use cloud computing (42%) and a business website and a social media site (18%), while established businesses were the least likely to use these online technologies (17% and 11% respectively).
Operators based in city and metropolitan areas were the most likely to have an online presence (57%), while rural-based operators were the least likely (38%).

As the events of the day in Ames unfolded - and as I worked to deal with a myriad of transportation, sanitation, evacuation, and problems during a 13+ hour shift at work - I was reminded of the society-gone-astray thriller The Trigger Effect. It's a movie that landed on my radar back in the summer of 1996 (Which is completely my favorite year, but that's a different story for a different time) thanks to the presence of my beloved Elisabeth Shue and a mixed review from Siskel & Ebert that got me interested in the idea of the film.
Written and Directed by David Koepp, The Trigger Effect opens with a wonderful tracking shot that shows how easily anger can be transferred from person to person in a populated setting. A waiter trips over a cord, spills on a man who doesn't speak English, who then bumps into someone else, who then argues with someone else, and so on. It's all simple human frustration; the kind of thing that happens every day. But it's something we rarely stop to witness, and Koepp's camera does a fine job of pointing out the ease with which our frustrations can boil into aggression.
What happens when we let these frustrations gain momentum? What if we always take the easy way out and avoid them? Those are the questions raised as The Trigger Effect moves on to its setting event, a blackout that shutsdown large portions of L.A. and its subrubs and leaves a married couple (Kyle Maclachlan and Shue), their sick daughter, and a family friend (Dermot Mulroney) fighting for their survival against a sea of troubles. The movie references predators that feed on the weak in early scenes where we see coyotes eating dead animals and get a quick glance at George Romero's Night of the Living Dead (another film in which normal people let their frustrations boil over while facing a change in their reality), but shocks us by making the human condition the host of predatory behavior.
And that's what made me think of The Trigger Effect today. As the river banks rose and conveniences that we take for granted disappeared, rumors spread throughout the town. People took to the streets in search of safe water, and I'm sure more than a few people cursed their neighbor in frustration. While I have faith in my town to not reach the extremes of The Trigger Effect - which definitely has its characters act in a highly metaphorical and illogical manner - I think the message the film sends rings true for Ames today.
In extreme conditions, we have to remember that most everyone is having a bad day. We seem to lose sight of that too often. We point fingers at others and believe that everyone's out to get us, but deep down inside we're all just fighting to survive and trying to feel like we still have some control over our lives when the things we thought were certain suddenly become variable.
The Trigger Effect never quite understands these facts entirely, the same way most people - including myself - don't understand them entirely. But I like where its heart is.
Also, I love Elisabeth Shue SOOOOOOOO MUCH.

We already had green play dough on hand, making this eucalyptus play dough super easy to whip up! All I had to do was add a couple drops of eucalyptus essential oil to our Play Doh brand play dough. You could also make homemade play dough if you prefer. Then, just add a few drops of the eucalyptus.
I personally LOVE Play Doh brand play dough! We purchase ours for under $1 at Walmart. I love that I can buy one container at a time and add whatever scent I want. I love that I don't have to worry about Rosie mixing colors. I love that once it gets dirty I can toss it and open a fresh container! Also, when making homemade play dough from scratch you need LOTS of food coloring to get anywhere near a desired color. I love the vibrancy of the store bought stuff!
The girls play with play dough daily so this was a great way to incorporate the essential oil into their Winter play. If your little ones are anything like mine, they probably have stuffy, runny noses all Winter long! Adding a bit of eucalyptus essential oil to daily activities is a great way to clear the airways, and provide some soothing relief.
Visit our Winter Play Therapy Collection for more ideas
If you do not have eucalyptus essential oil, it can be purchased here or at most major department stores and pharmacies. The bottle we purchased last year has lasted a really long time as you only need a few drops to transform ordinary play into soothing play!

An Iraq war veteran has taken a gun out of his checked luggage and opened fire in a crowded baggage claim area at Fort Lauderdale's airport, killing five people, months after he showed up at an FBI office behaving erratically.
Esteban Santiago, 26, who was taken into custody immediately following the shooting and questioned at length, was expected to face federal charges in the shooting rampage, said George Piro, special agent in charge of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's office in Miami.
Piro said investigators had not ruled out terrorism as a possible motive in the rampage and were reviewing the suspect's recent travel.
Santiago, who had served in the US military, had arrived in Ft Lauderdale shortly before 1pm local time on Friday on a connecting flight from Alaska, authorities said, when he retrieved a 9mm semi-automatic handgun from his checked luggage and began firing indiscriminately.
Broward County Commissioner Chip LaMarca said on Twitter that the gunman went into a restroom to load his weapon and came out firing.
Witnesses told MSNBC television he only stopped after running out of ammunition, at which point he surrendered to police.
Mobile phone video posted on social media showed travellers kneeling and treating victims on the floor next to a carousel.
The gunman, who wore a Star Wars T-shirt, said nothing as he fired, witnesses told MSNBC.
"This is a senseless act of evil," Florida Governor Rick Scott told reporters.
A White House spokesman said President Barack Obama had spoken to Scott and Broward County Mayor Barbara Sharief and had extended his condolences to the loved ones of the victims.
In addition to the five killed, eight others were wounded by gunfire and some three dozen were taken to local hospitals with bruises or broken bones suffered in the chaos surrounding the shooting massacre.
Piro said that Santiago had turned up at an FBI office in Anchorage in November of last year behaving erratically and was turned over to local police, who took him to a medical facility for a mental evaluation.
A federal law enforcement official told Reuters that Santiago told agents at the Anchorage office in November that his mind was being controlled by a US intelligence agency, which was ordering him to watch Islamic State videos.
Santiago served from 2007 to 2016 in the Puerto Rico National Guard and Alaska National Guard including a deployment to Iraq from 2010 to 2011, according to the Pentagon.
A private first class and combat engineer, he received half a dozen medals before being transferred to the inactive ready reserve in August last year.
An aunt said he came back from his deployment "a different person," MSNBC reported.
Flying with firearms is routine and legal in the United States as long as the guns are kept in a locked, hard-sided container as checked baggage only, under TSA rules.
Ammunition is prohibited in carry-on bags but is allowed in checked luggage.
The attack was the latest in a series of mass shootings that have plagued the United States in recent years, some inspired by militants with an extreme view of Islam, others carried out by loners or the mentally disturbed.
Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport is the second largest in South Florida, serving as an intercontinental gateway.

text: I just purchased the DINC 2 and I love it except for two problems. (1) Using the speaker phone is terrible! The sound is bad and the volume is low when set to it's loudest setting. (2) The camera takes good pictures when you have plenty of light, but under low light conditions the pictures come out with a blueish tint. Is anyone having one or both of these problems? If so, is there a fix or any suggestions on what to do to help? Thanks for your help or suggestions!

Sharleen Spiteri - Melody
- Martin C Strong
- 3 July 2008
(Mercury Records)
What's the difference between Glasgow act Texas and its frontwoman Sharleen Spiteri? If listening to the latter's debut solo album is any clue: very little. Wearing her Dusty Springfield influences proudly on her sleeve (once again!), the sultry Spiteri pops back to the Brill-Building and Motown days of the early 60s, her consuming passions showcased on 'Stop I Don't Love You Anymore' and the Shangri-Las-esque single, 'All The Times I Cried'. With 20 years in the business, progress and originality have never been strong points for Sharleen and Co, but if retro-pop be your bag, 'It Was You' (co-produced with Bernard Butler) and the Nancy Sinatra-cloned rock'n'roller 'I'm Going To Haunt You' (featuring the twangs of former Los Straitjackets geezer, Kaiser George) might just be your cup of tea.

Ever heard of it? Maybe you have if you have a Christian background. If not, I will tell you about it. I am a Christian. As a Christian, I believe that God owns it all, and we have things to use here by His will. When we die, it is all not ours anymore. But on to what the 10-10-80 plan is. Simply it is this. Give God 10% of all your earnings ( yes , before taxes). Give yourself 10% as a savings/investing thing, and live on the the rest of it. If you are not doing this now, you might be thinking it is not possible, or not for you in your situation, but if you are a Christian, I believe God is very clear about the first 10%. I know there are various opinions about that, and I won't debate that today, but maybe some other time.
Belief and behavior sometimes go in reverse order. Sometimes you have to start acting like you believe and then the real belief follows. Behavior is far more powerful than good intentions.
Dr. John Harnish gave a sermon back in 2003 titled "10-10-80: Behaving Toward Believing".
In it, he states that "It's easier to behave your way into a new way of thinking than it is to think your way into a new way of behaving."
I think that is so true. Just like the diet I am on, and my goal to lose 10 pounds by March 31. If I only think about losing the weight, it will never happen. If I willfully change my behavior by eating less and keeping tabs on my food amounts, it happens. (By the way, I am doing it. I have lost about 6 pounds already.)
So, how would one start this way of living and investing money? By doing. Make some moves. Start right where you are. If you are doing nothing, then start doing something, even if it is 1%. Setup a automatic withdrawal from you bank for some amount, say 1-5% to start, and have that go into the God fund. Set this up in a different account, and don't touch it. You will find that you can do it, if you want to. Withdraw it every month and give it to God with a big smile.
Set up another automatic payment to go to your savings. Again start where you are and make it at least equal to the God fund. You will see how over time you will adjust to living without this money.
An even better plan would be to do a basic 10-15-75 plan, where 15% is invested in your retirement/savings plan. I can't disagree with that either and I hope to make it to that very soon.
My final point with this. Your personal finance and your life are inseparably intertwined. How and what you believe should influence your investing and your spending habits. If you have gotten out of control on your finances, take action now. This is a plan that can help you get started.
Do you have any comments about this 10-10-80 rule? Do you do it? Leave a comment here.

Using smart-phones for ad-hoc mathematical collaboration poses multiple user interface challenges. In this paper, software agents are used to lessen the cognitive load through automatic line labeling. Researchers in the human-computer interaction community have attempted to alleviate the problem of general usability through user interface engineering conventions. However, these engineering approaches can be improved upon through the application of mixed-initiative principles.

The calm that followed the storm slowed the flow of finishers to a trickle yesterday in the biennial Annapolis to Newport Race, one of the oldest ocean races still taking place on the East Coast.
This year's 435-mile race began Saturday at noon off the mouth of the Severn River, with 55 boats racing in three IMS and three PHRF handicap classes.
By 11 a.m. yesterday, all 18 starters in IMS Classes I and II, were finished or accounted for, as were eight in Class III IMS and Class IV PHRF. But by 5 p.m., only four more boats had crossed the finish line off Castle Hill Lighthouse in Newport, R.I., and there were still no finishers in Class V PHRF or Class VI PHRF Nonspinnaker.

I am an Alzheimers caregiver, I am the One, and if you are here you are not Alone.
To start, I am a curious person. So, when I want to know more about something I really dig in. Take it apart and put it back together.
I'm fortunate in two ways. I picked great parents, and God and my parents blessed me with an ability to read fast, and absorb information.
My brain is wired to view everything as a system. This allows me to see all the parts when I encounter something new, or when I am trying to figure things out.
When focused, I am goal oriented.
