Capital works as a cushion against losses and as protection for account holders when a bank is experiencing economic trouble. Therefore, when it comes to measuring an a bank's financial strength, capital is useful. From a safety and soundness perspective, the more capital, the better.
Citizens National Bank, N.A. received a score of 10 out of a possible 30 points on our test to measure the adequacy of a bank's capital, lower than the national average of 13.13.
One widely followed measure of this buffer is a bank's Tier 1 capital ratio. Citizens National Bank, N.A.'s Tier 1 capital ratio was 13.55 percent, exceeding the 6 percent level regulators consider adequate, but below the national average of 25.65 percent. A higher capital ratio means the bank will be better able to weather financial challenges.
Overall, Citizens National Bank, N.A. held equity amounting to 10.44 percent of its assets, which was lower than the national average of 12.03 percent.
In this test, Bankrate tries to determine the effect of problem assets, such as unpaid mortgages, on the bank's loan loss reserves and overall capitalization.
Having lots of these kinds of assets suggests a bank could have to use capital to cover losses, reducing its equity buffer. It also means that there are likely to be many assets that are in non-accrual status and no longer earning interest for the bank, resulting in reduced earnings and potentially more risk of a future failure.
Citizens National Bank, N.A. scored 40 out of a possible 40 points on Bankrate's test of asset quality, better than the national average of 37.49.
A useful indicator of asset quality is the percentage of problem assets a bank holds compared to its total assets. As of December 31, 2017, 0.61 percent of Citizens National Bank, N.A.'s loans were noncurrent -- in other words, they were more than 90 days past due or were in non-accrual status. That's below the national average of 1.01 percent.
Banks keep a reserve known as an "allowance for loan and lease losses" to deal with problem assets . That reserve's size can be a widely used indicator when evaluating a bank's ability to manage problem assets, especially when compared to the total amount of at-risk loans. Unfortunately, the FDIC did not provide information on Citizens National Bank, N.A.'s loan loss allowance in its most recent filings.
How profitable a bank is affects its long-term survivability. A bank can retain its earnings, increasing its capital buffer, or put them to work addressing problematic loans, likely making the bank more resilient in times of trouble. Obviously, banks that are losing money are less able to do those things.
On Bankrate's test of earnings, Citizens National Bank, N.A. scored 8 out of a possible 30, lower than the national average of 15.12.
Return on equity, calculated by dividing net income (profit, basically) by total equity, is one key measure of a bank's earnings. Citizens National Bank, N.A.'s most recent annualized quarterly return on equity was 4.05 percent, below the national average of 8.10 percent.
The bank reported net income of $3.8 million on total equity of $96.4 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2017. The bank experienced an annualized return on average assets, or ROA, of 0.42 percent, below the 1 percent deemed satisfactory in accordance with industry standards and below the average for U.S. banks of 1.00 percent.
Bankrate.com's Safe & Sound Ratings provide a star rating system to evaluate the current financial status of financial institutions. The information gathered about banks, credit unions and thrifts is updated as set forth in the Terms of Use of Safe & Sound Ratings and Reports. The Safe & Sound Ratings information is grouped by categories of banks, thrifts and credit unions.
Bankrate.com evaluates the financial condition of institutions and assigns a one- to five-star rating for each with five stars representing the highest rating. Institutions with satisfactory performance will generally receive a rating of three or more stars. The majority of institutions fall into the three- to four-star range. An institution with an "NR" rating may be too new to rate or may have limited the publicly available information in their regulatory filings. The "NR" is not an indication of financial strength or weakness. The Safe & Sound rating is believed to be reliable, but the information is not guaranteed. In addition, events since the information was collected may have altered the institution's financial condition.

Pet Surgery
Your pet may need to undergo surgery at some point during their lifetime, either as part of their routine care or to correct an acute or chronic condition.

Our pet surgery services are performed under the safest, most sanitary conditions with the most advanced surgical and monitoring equipment available. We never proceed into surgery unless we have examined your pet, run blood tests to create a profile of their internal health, and determined that the procedure will improve their quality of life.

Once we have determined that your pet is healthy and can undergo surgery, we will advise you to withhold their food and water 12 hours before their procedure will take place. At drop-off, we will obtain your consent, answer any other questions you have, and prepare your pet for our surgical suite. Their vitals will be monitored through the entire procedure, and they will receive fluids and other medications as needed to keep them comfortable and stable.

To finish out our coverage of the 2019 Northwood High School swim team, they participated in the Pacific Coast League Finals which took place on Friday, April 26, 2019 featuring five other Southern California high schools in their league who gave Northwood all they could handle at the Woollett Aquatics Center in Irvine, CA.
Northwood though handled the competition very well as they finished near the top of the standings for both the girls and boys side of competition. On the girls side, they were able to finish in 2nd place behind Woodbridge High School. While for the boys, despite winning the last three Pacific Coast League titles, they still had a great showing at the meet finishing in 2nd place behind league rival University High School. Overall, Northwood put on a great show having many outstanding performances throughout the meet.
For the Northwood girls who finished in second place behind Woodbridge High School, they also had amazing individual and team performances throughout the meet as well. For individual standouts, Carolyn Nguyen and Amanda Hsieh were the top performers at the meet. Nguyen had a top three finish in the 100 Butterfly (57.00) and a top two finish in the 200 Freestyle (1:56.59). While Hsieh had two 2nd place finishes in the 100 Freestyle (51.56) and the 200 Individual Medley (2:05.23). In terms of the team performances, the Northwood girls had two 2nd place finishes in both the 200 Medley Relay (1:49.55) and also the 400 Freestyle Relay (3:33.89).
Now despite the Northwood boys finishing in second place behind University High School, they also had outstanding individual and team performances. In terms of individual standouts, Felix Zhu and David Xue really represented the swim program throughout the meet. Zhu had two 2nd place finishes in both the 100 Freestyle (47.06) and the 200 Freestyle (1:42.41). Xue though also had two 2nd place finishes in the 100 Butterfly (50.95) and the 200 Individual Medley (1:54.26). While for the team performances, the Northwood boys had two 2nd place finishes in both the 200 Medley Relay (1:36.75) and also the 400 Freestyle Relay (3:11.20).
Now after a great regular swim season, HSPN Correspondent David Hill talked to some Northwood High School seniors about the overall swim season and what is next for them after they graduate from high school. Additionally, we were able to also talk to some swimmers from competitor Beckman High School whose swim program is on the rise as they were 5th place for the girls division and 3rd place for the boys division.

Wow! It's hard to believe that three weeks ago, I was in Providence, Rhode Island attending the first night of the 26th Certified Zentangle Teacher Seminar. The four days of seminar were four of the most amazing days. I have struggled since I got home to find the words to write to truly articulate my experience, and at this point, I feel like I just have to put pen to paper (or should I say fingers to keyboard), and see what happens.
Since I had a little of time before my first session, I decided to meet up with my new canadian friend, visit the student gallery and of course...visit the Zentangle store!
I compare walking into the Zentangle store to the first time I walked into a particular teacher warehouse store in Vancouver, I got so giddy I almost passed out.
During my first visit to the store (I think I visited the store 3 times a day each day during seminar), I picked up a CZT apron, and two books. There are many Zentangle books out in the world, but there are only two books written by Maria and Rick. I purchased The Book of Zentangle, and The Primer Vol. 1 in hopes that Rick and Maria would sign them for me.
At 4:30pm on Sunday, April 9, 2017, we started session one of Certified Zentangle Teacher Seminar #26. All 12 of our sessions were held in the most beautiful ballroom I have ever been in (and I've seen a lot of ballrooms from my days working at a party event/decorating company).
Each day was packed from morning to night with opportunities to learn, explore, experience, and connect. The entire Zentangle family (Rick, Maria, Molly, Martha, Sue, Jean, Julie, and the rest of the crew) were so amazing. I really appreciated how well everything was organized and I felt they were taking good care of us (the newest members to the CZT family). After each session, we would have some sort of a break, either a snack or meal. I was so pleased that there was always a gluten free option provided for me (and many others with allergies). Each time I returned to my seat after a break time, I was pleasantly surprised to see a new item at my spot that we would be exploring or learning about. It was like Christmas in April. Each time we completed a tile we would put them in a basket, and Sue and Jean would arrange them into a beautiful mosaic. One of the most beautiful things I have ever seens is a mosaic of tiles created by future CZTs. It always amazes me how different and unique each tile looks even thought we are all following the same instructions. I also found it ironic how difficult it was for me to find my tile. We created 25 tiles using 36 tangles over 4 days.
I was 1 of 110 people attending CZT Seminar #26. There were people from Argentina, Australia, Canada (only 3 of us), Colombia, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Japan, Korea, New Zealand, Macau, Spain, Switzerland, Russia, Taiwan, UK, and USA. Although I did not get to meet every single person attending the seminar, the people I did connect with were pretty amazing.
Along with many beautiful tiles and mosaics we created, we also collaborated on a beautiful piece. One person won the original, and the rest of us received a print of it.
During one of the evening festivities, Rick and Maria held a book signing session. I had them sign my Book of Zentangle and Primer Vol. 1
The last day of seminar was an emotional one. I was filled with so many emotions that even now thinking about it I can't really articulate it. Graduating from Zentangle Seminar #26 was one of the proudest days I have had so far in my life.
I have nothing but appreciation and gratitude for the opportunity I had to be part of Zentangle Seminar #26. I am over-joyed to be apart of the CZT community and family. I am so looking forward to sharing my passion and knowledge of the Method of Zentangle with others, and I really look forward to see what opportunities unfold in the coming years.

So nice to read your reflections, Natasha! Brings back joyful memories of my own training back in 2010 (CZT 4!) in Whitinsville, as well as my daughter's training seminar in 2013 (CZT 11). My daughter got in off the waitlist, and there were no more rooms available at the seminar hotel (which was Hotel Providence at the time) so we got a room at the Biltmore. It was spectacular! A grand venue for an even grander opportunity and gathering of creative souls. Best wishes on your CZT journey! Welcome to our cozy, caring international community!

Cataract Surgery: You are in the Driver's Seat and in Charge of Your Eyecare
Your eye care doctor says you have cataracts and may need to have surgery.
Do you know that you have options? Even if you've been referred to a specific cataract surgeon, you are free to choose your surgeon and the technology used for the best results. It's important to know you have options.
At Scott and Christie Eyecare Associates, we empower you, the consumer, to make the best decisions about your Cataract Surgery.
You Have Options. Make it Count.
You only have cataract surgery once in your lifetime: Make it count.
Scott and Christie Eyecare Associates thrive on innovation. We know recent innovations in cataract surgery, multifocal technology and laser cataract surgery, patients now have the opportunity to experience the vision to meet their lifestyle needs after surgery. Scott and Christie ophthalmologists will review with you the options for your care based on your unique needs and answer your questions so that you can make the best decision for your surgical experience.
Technology and Experience
Scott and Christie Eyecare Associates offer patients options for multi-focal technology and laser cataract surgery. A multifocal lens implant corrects near, intermediate and distance vision, as compared to traditional cataract surgery that corrects only distance vision. The laser corrects astigmatism.
Multifocal plus the laser equals a fined tuned, full range of vision.
The lens can be inserted with the assistance of laser precision or by traditional methods, depending on the patient's specific needs and desires. With nearly 30 years' experience, our team is the Pittsburgh region's premier cataract surgeons, having performed over 30,000 cataract surgeries and over twenty years of multi-focal experience, our doctors were some of the first to use the advanced multifocal lens implant and laser cataract technologies.
Because of this experience, we deliver our patients solid outcomes and compassionate care.
Continuity of Care
We believe the patient should see the surgeon before and after surgery.
Being there for our patients before and after surgery is crucial to our core beliefs and quality medical care. We continually ensure that you are recovering as you should, with a post-surgical care calendar that helps patients improve in a way that creates a full circle of service. Your precious eye sight and care is just too critical to do it any other way.
About Relationships
Established in 1990, Scott and Christie Eyecare Associates have been providing Pittsburgh patients quality care for nearly 30 years. And in that time, patients have referred friends and relatives to us again and again because of the way we treat people. The relationships we build with our patients is vital to the care we provide and the success of the practice.
We are proud to have this long-term history of serving our community, and we will be here to support your needs in the years to come.
Call Now 724-772-5420
Live your best life, today.
Dedicated to You and Your Care
Optometrists and ophthalmologists work together when patients have conditions like cataracts. While the optometrist can diagnose cataracts, only an ophthalmologist (who is a medical doctor) can determine if you are actually a candidate for cataract surgery and, if necessary, perform that surgery. That is why, once an optometrist determines that you have cataracts, he or she must refer you to a cataract surgeon. The referral that an optometrist makes is important, it should be free from any financial incentives to create the referral and should be in the patient's best interest; it's your precious eyesight, its something to ask about and consider.
Click Here – For More Information
Some additional information to consider before you schedule your surgery.
With multifocal lens technology, many of our patients experience the rest of their life buying no more corrective eyewear or significantly reducing their dependency on corrective eyewear. Technology decisions can significantly reduce the costs of buying a lifetime of eyewear.
Traditional cataract surgery, even if recommended by the optometrist, which keeps patients in a cycle of buying eyewear, may not be in your best interest.
Learn about all of your options at Scott & Christie.

Google, Yahoo! Call Off Ad Partnership
Google is calling off its search advertising partnership with Yahoo! "It's clear that government regulators and some advertisers continue to have concerns about the agreement," said Google senior VP, corporate development and chief legal officer David Drummond in a blog post Wednesday.
The companies announced back in June that they had struck a deal to give Yahoo! the opportunity to use Google to service ads on its Web sites, but the deal got pushback from advertisers concerned it would boost prices and competitors in the online search business, notably Microsoft, which complained the companies would be cornering the market on search advertising.
The deal also drew the scrutiny of concerned legislators and the Justice Department, which was investigating the potential partnership.
"Pressing ahead risked not only a protracted legal battle but also damage to relationships with valued partners. That wouldn't have been in the long term interests of Google or our users, so we have decided to end the agreement," wrote Drummond, likening continuing to fight for the deal to driving down the info highway with the parking break on.

I hadn't properly cleaned my boots last time I put them away.
When I unbagged them and sat on the back of the car in the Lakes, a few weeks ago, they still had mud on them from a previous walk. Mud, from snow melting into earth, and white chalk, from the North Downs.
And now, that mud and chalk was translated a few hundred miles north, to be trodden into ground near Derwent Water.
A smile on the inside: how much mud and soil and who knows what else have I moved around the county, mixing tiny samples from one place into another?
My last pair of boots had taken me up hills in France, Cyprus, California, Australia. I didn't clean the Australian soil off them for a few weeks after I returned. I couldn't bring myself to do it; it was a final memento of a huge trip, a little piece of something alien, brought all the way home. I finally replaced those grey synthetic boots with these leather ones around 2016, when the old pair were just no longer waterproof. I was sad to do so; they had so many travels trodden into their soles; the new ones, stiff and clean, didn't feel like they could match up.
But now, a few years later, these ones have really started to get their miles in, slowly – and highly inefficiently – redistributing soil and dirt around the world.
They'll get a proper clean and wax in due course. In the meantime, I still like the tingle of all the previous journeys I see in them in moments like this.
"Specifications and bureaucracies live forever." Or: why a Solid Rocket Booster is the width of a Roman chariot. This is good.
Cracking piece of… technology history and perspective, I guess, from Mike Johnston: a history of the 35mm film frame size, the things that threatened to unseat it, the ways it bounced back, and the ways other inventions embedded it in history. A really good Total Perspective Vortex of the history of a technology.
"The problem is that photography has always been a technical pursuit and the mediating technology required to make a photograph has always threatened to overwhelm it. To quote Donald Kuspit, 'Technology is the last valiant attempt to discredit and devalue the unconscious…. The unconscious is the bête noire in a scientifically and technologically managed world, which is why it must be killed or at least ostracized.' The endless upgrade cycle, the more and more laborious and tedious mastery of imaging software, the solid belief in technical improvement and control as a means to achieve success, all of this leads one further and further away from any possibility of making original or authentic work. This is the bind of the technology treadmill. What it gives, it also takes away. So in digital photography we have an inherent pitfall in the photographic process married to the culturally dominant fixation with technology and control which are themselves obstacles to the unconscious, the very source of creativity itself."
Fantastic quotation and comment from David Comdico over at TOP. I feel this applies hugely to electronic music, too.
Automatic switching between viewfinder/LCD screen on Sony RX100m3 not working? Try this.

If turned on with the viewfinder extended, the viewfinder alone would work; if turned on with the viewfinder shut, the LCD would work. But if the viewfinder was on, raising and lowering it to my eye wouldn't swap between the two. I spent a while faffing with this, convinced it was broken, and failing to find anything on the internet to discuss this.
Anyhow, then I found this video which explains the problem, and takes a full two minutes to get to the point. So I'm re-iterating that point, in writing, for everybody using a search engine!
Long story short: if you'd guessed that the sensor that detects when it to your eye is playing up, possibly, because of dirt, you're entirely right. What you might not have worked out is where that sensor is.
It's here:
It's not in the viewfinder; it's to the right of it, on the lip above the LCD. Mine didn't look dirty, but I wiped it down a few times and sure enough, everything worked fine again. Problem solved, and one of the most useful features of this little camera worked properly again.
"Show up for the work. For me, this means sitting at my loom every day and weaving for at least a few hours no matter what else might be pulling at me in business or in life. I was given this advice early on, in both my studio art education and in writing workshops I attended over the years. This commitment is the gateway to developing a habit, and in turn, a creative practice. The simple repetition of throwing the shuttle across the loom for even an hour has never failed to open up my thinking, ground my anxiety and, ultimately, move the work forward. Even if my thoughts don't dramatically shift, I can walk away from the work and see tangible evidence of a woven yard or two. Affirmation." As if I didn't need reminding. (I bookmarked this primarily, though, for the beautiful photos and workplace.)
"keep some parts of myself severely to myself, am thus able to maintain a deep fruitful disjunction between this real world & the real real world." (and: of _course_ the "Robin" commenting on MJH's blog is Robin Sloan)
"The lineage of luxury in art – from lapis lazuli, to bronze casting, gold plating or diamond encrusting – extends now to graphics cards, ray-tracing, skin rendering, reflection mapping and to processor speeds, hyperthreading, render farms and the complex world of outsourcing, government subsidies or mineral extraction. It's important and interesting! Curators take note!" This is good / the Ed Atkins also sounds good.
Bookmarked for reference – Dan's lists are usually good.
Beautiful. (via Denise).
"King Lear would have killed it in Silicon Valley." More Maciej, and yes, it's great.

Seems like a reasonable set of tools to help out with this.
"MailCatcher runs a super simple SMTP server which catches any message sent to it to display in a web interface. Run mailcatcher, set your favourite app to deliver to smtp://127.0.0.1:1025 instead of your default SMTP server, then check out http://127.0.0.1:1080 to see the mail that's arrived so far." Useful!
"The reason I am able to make Twitter bots is because I have been programming computers in a shitty, haphazard way for 15 years, followed by maybe 5 years of less-shitty programming. Every single sentence in the big preceding paragraph, every little atom of knowledge, represents hours of banging my head up against a series of technical walls, googling for magic words to get libraries to compile, scouring obscure documentation to figure out what the hell I'm supposed to do, and re-learning stuff I'd forgotten because I hadn't used it in a while." This paragraph also represents my experience of both programming and how I write my toys; a slightly round-about set of experience to get to where we are now, with lots of reading the manual and doing things in dumb ways occasionally. Programming!
Yep, this all seems like a very good list to me. Filed away for the next time I have to do anything with maps.
Enjoyed this a lot: Kim Stanley Robinson on California, SF, and the relationship between the two. For me, timely.
"In this film I wanted to look beyond the childish myth of 'the cloud', to investigate what the infrastructures of the internet actually look like. It felt important to be able to see and hear the energy that goes into powering these machines, and the associated systems for securing, cooling and maintaining them." Looks beautiful: Timo's customary look in enveloping, three-screen 4K. Gosh. Also: the uses of stills-as-film is really interesting to me at the moment.
"One-thousand dollars invested at a 20% discount with 5% interest (calculating interest every 3 turns, but simple, not compounding interest) means a player will have starting debt of $1000. After three turns the debt is $1050, 6 turns is $1100, 9 turns is $1150, etc. Totally manageable. The banker is your friend and wants you to succeed."
A lovely game – almost a poem, but definitely Enough Game – by Holly Gramazio, about being a blackbird in a city. It made me feel many things, which is what the best writing does. Also, I shall now probably play it again.
"We foresee an amazing future where not only can your household devices communicate with each other, they can also communicate with us over the same Internet lines. How cool would it be if your fridge could post a Medium here on Medium every time it needed you to buy more milk? And that's just one idea." There are many more ideas in this post.
Write the documentation for your tool to define the interface. Very nifty, and has polyglot parsers.
"a class factory and dsl for generating command line programs real quick" I like the look of this: solves lots of things I've always made clunky workarounds for.
Great set of pictures from Evo 2013; I really, really ought to go sometime.
"…nothing really gets older online; the only aging of things here comes from the erosive force of changing human sensibilities. The black of that North Face jacket looks just as black, but the point of wearing it has faded a little. Here there is only the appearance of getting older because everything else has gotten much newer. The pixels do not outwardly become worn. They are like grains of sand. If one is destroyed, it's too small for us to know it's been annihilated. And there is so much sand."
"I wonder if there's a business to be gotten into where one shows movies the way everyone wants to see them: just the movies, from the very first second you start watching. It's a naive thought; I understand that. But I can't forget that when those lights went down, when that screen went up, and when that twangy riff kicked in, there were audible gasps and cheers in the audience, and someone behind me yelled out "whoa, awesome!" I want to believe that there's a business to be gotten into that capitalizes on "whoa, awesome"."
Stewart Lee's dark, self-referential Christmas tale from this year, for the New Statesman.
"In other words, the more packages you send at once, the shittier job FedEx does of delivering each of them, with each package getting less and less of a delivery attempt. And the limit actually approaches zero, which means that if you somehow send me infinity packages through FedEx, they will not even knock on my door. They will take the infinity dollars and run. I did honestly not intend today to use math to prove precisely how bad FedEx is at delivering packages, but, um, here we are?" I love Ryan North.

Drawing boards and pencils, musical instruments and kids toy telephones should also be introduced in this age.

The Vulli Sophie the Giraffe Teether isn't just a brand new toy, but I am throwing it in my list of the best baby toys of 2016 because it is still so relevant now. It's numerous parts to chew and play safely, and it has a soft feel that reminds them of a mother's soft skin. The brown areas are also intended to be daring to ease the infant's development.
Music and lights are often a winning mix for children's toys, and for the most part, this toy is no exception. The handle can also be chewed on. Though I'd say that it is probably girls would love the Zoobles, I can also find these as toys which boys would also appreciate. Ride-on toys are rapidly turning into one of the most well-known toys that kids ask for. Made to excite the imagination and inspire creativity, ride-on toys can be as straightforward as wooden rocking animals or as complex as electrical kids ride on cars Bicycles, tricycles, and scooters also belong under the umbrella of ride-on toys.
Skip Hop's design and quality is just one I have loved for years. And this new action mat does not disappoint. We had a mat from 3years ago but got this one from a buddy.

A number of the baby shower balloon examples include balloons in the shape of a rattle-toy, or with prints of cute little babies onto them, or perhaps balloons of the shape of infants. Some bows have the images representing baby items like milk bottles, teddy bears, prams, etc. published on them. In summary all these sorts of baby shower designs, in one way or the other represent a baby theme. You can also have your pictures customized with specific messages of your own, or with the image of the mother-to-be.
Nipples are marked with the size and a suggested age range. Do not be concerned if your baby does not follow these guidelines exactly. You may need to try a few different nipple sizes to find one that works best for your baby. Watch to make sure that your baby is not having difficulty getting milk or becoming so much that he is choking or spitting up. And, clearly, discuss any feeding issues with your child's physician.
Aside from pure enjoyment, infant toys ought to be informative, too. Puzzles are very ideal educational toys because they promote psychological coordination and problem solving abilities of the baby. The baby also learns more about distinct pictures, such as their shapes and colors. Puzzles have different difficulty levels depending on the infant age groups; however, the sort of puzzle that is ideal for your infant is also determined by the infant's particular skills. There are infants who can solve puzzles with higher difficulty levels than their own. Other educational toys introduce the concepts of letters and numbers. Sometimes, these toys also include musical and lighting features to make them more stimulating for and intriguing to the baby. In addition to piquing the baby's interest, the baby also gets familiarized with easy musical notes.
Transformers – The 1980s became memorable for a great deal of children from the era due to these trucks that transformed into robots, and vice versa. Earning over $2B in profits from the three live action movies shown alone (using a fourth one nonetheless showing in cinemas from different parts of the world), you can just imagine how much more the toys created considering that Hasbro was producing them for 30 years. With the movies and spinoff animations, these actions figures have gotten much more popular than ever, selling an increasing number of robots each day.
What I love about this toy, other than the stimulating features, is the volume control. These toys have a tendency to get loud, but that can reduce the sound a bit. Ideally, you need to purchase toys which are dishwasher safe. This can make cleaning them much easier. That said, the plan of this toy might not foster the greatest levels of cleanliness. This is especially relevant when the toy squirts water.
To be fair, this would not only be hours of wasted time with your baby; instead it is enlightening as well: with two different modes on the phone, your kid can both understand things and enjoy the music. Did you own one or more one of these toys, or have you ever possessed others that I have missed? I would dearly love to understand since there is nothing really as nostalgic as a trip down memory lane.

As experts in linear technology, we provide the corresponding accessories for a wide variety of linear guide designs, such as pulley (roller) guides and profile rail guides as well as for driven linear axes. These are machine elements that you either install to adapt the operating conditions of the linear systems for special requirements or that are used as spare parts. In general, the accessories for the linear systems we offer have the following functions:
In many cases, the raceway or other machine part must be covered, either to prevent dirt contamination or damage or for safety reasons. We offer various bellows for this purpose. Bellows basically consist of a highly resistant textile material, such as strong polyester fabric. The respective end plates are used for installation.
Wiping units for linear guides and ball screws prevent both contamination (dirt, chips) from entering the system and lubrication from leaking out. Using wiping units increases the maintenance-free lifetime of the machine elements. Depending on the type of contamination, wipers made of steel or rubber can be used. Steel is better for coarse dirt and metal chips. For ball screw drives, we also offer lubrication units for even, economical lubrication. This also reduces maintenance. Sufficient, regular lubrication also increases the service life of the machine parts.
For profile rail guides, we offer braking and clamping elements. These slow the movement of the carriage or stop it in a specific position. Operation is either manual, pneumatic, hydraulic or electric. The elements differ in shape, load capacity and reaction time.
We also provide bearing units for ball screws: either bearing block or flanged bearing units. These are complete units, including the required seals. The bearing units are easy and inexpensive to install. There are various versions for various loads and application areas. In addition, we also offer couplings and coupling housings as well as drives and controls as accessories for linear modules.

Don't tell me there is no justice in Texas. There's no justice anywhere.

Texas Candy Thief Lethally Injected
DALLAS (YU) – Texas retained its reputation as the law and order capital of the world after executing a mentally handicapped prisoner originally sentenced to life for stealing a Snickers bar.
Protests by Tralfamadorians from around the universe failed to halt the homicide by lethal injection of Thomas Paine, 52, who was sentenced to 90 days in 1963 for lifting a ten-cent candy bar from an Ruby Junction grocery store.
"It was a king size," said Ruby Junction County assistant district attorney Carole Doda when asked by reporters after the execution if she thought the punishment fit the crime.

Rabwah Times —
A Palestinian Shariah court in the West Bank city of Nablus has decided to invalidate a marriage after the wife converted to Ahmadiyya branch of Islam.
On 20th June 2016, The Palestinian Sharia court made the final decision to dissolve the marriage of woman named "S.A" to her husband "R.O" after evidence of her conversion to Islam Ahmadiyya was presented to the court. The court declared the conversion to be "apostasy".
National President of Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Palestine, Sheikh Muhammad Sharif Odeh condemned the Shariah Court's decision. He said:
"The decision by the Nablus court to declare the woman an apostate (a person who leaves religion and is at times considered worthy to be killed) is completely wrong, unacceptable and incompatible with Islam"
Sheikh Sharif went on to say:
"President Mahmoud Abbas has to immediately intervene and stop this absurdity which calls for murder due to religious differences."
He also said:
"The court's decision is not based on any law and in fact contrary to the law because it induces murder and killing of Palestinian people, the Ahmadiyya Muslims believe in God, his angels and the five pillars of Islam and all the Islamic religious rituals, even today we are fasting like the rest of the Muslims, because it's the holy month of Ramadan."
Ahmadiyya is a minority sect of Islam which is considered heretic by mainstream Muslims. A small Ahmadiyya community has existed in the region since 1928, But the community's renewed popularity in the Palestinian territories has raised many questions about the status of Ahmadis within Palestine.

The answer may be that almost no scalable startups are actually successful, so people depend on proxies to "grade" themselves.
The best research I'm familiar with looked at 18 million startup companies (including 14 million that have been around for at least six years) and asked the question: how many are successful by Silicon Valley Standards? They defined success as an IPO or acquisition of over $10 Million. Answer: a bit over 5,000, or roughly one in 3,500.
But wait, most new companies are mom and pop stores, the kind of enterprise that never aspires in a Silicon Valley direction. How many of the ones that actually try for that sort of success achieve it?
This is tougher to answer, because you can't know what's in an entrepreneur's mind, and because some companies (e.g. Ben and Jerry's) that didn't start out in that direction get there anyway. The authors looked for indicators of companies that were trying to achieve this sort of success, and found 10 that had some correlation - incorporated as a C Corp, founder's name not in the title, and so on. These things are debatable, but the general conclusion was that about 1.5% of the ones that aspire to Google, Facebook, Microsoft status, actually get any success.
So when you go to an accelerator, or a demo day, or just sit at a Starbucks, and talk to someone about their great disruptive startup, at least 98.5 out of 100 of those people are shortly going to fail.
But meanwhile, they're living the startup lifestyle._ They're agilely programming and lean startuping and getting out of the building and so on. How do they do it?
Funding! When a company is a real company, it has a reciprocal relationship with customers. There are people who buy their products to go about their lives, in the same way that they walk through doors to go into buildings. The people in the company spend their days making the products available to these folks, and receive money for it. The reciprocal relationship is self perpetuating, and enables the company to exist. In other words, real companies are part of the economic ecosystem. Startups don't have real customers. The people they're pleased to call "customers" have never heard of them and wouldn't care if they did. Maybe they clicked on something, or expressed excitement over coffee, that's about it.
But startups do have their own ecosystem. It includes more than accelerators and incubators. It also includes professional money managers who have been hired for the job of deploying their limited's capital, and "angel" investors who have extra money and some reason to want to be along on the ride. When startups can't get access to money from those sources, they at least have their parents, their savings, or their credit cards to fall back on. So money gets injected into the startup ecosystem in the form of investment.
The result is that startups get to dress up and look like companies - with offices and people and laptops and telephones ringing and TechCrunch. They're actually toy companies, like puppets being manipulated on investor strings. Sometimes it's easy to suspend disbelief and imagine the puppet is alive. That's success in the startup world, and that's where the idea that startup success equals fundraising comes from.
Once in a while these toy startups (maybe about 1.5% of them) evolve like Cabrian fish making there way onto land, and join the real economic ecosystem.
Many of those lucky few then look around and say "Damn, I shouldn't have sold off all my equity back in toy land." But that's the way it goes.

Procurement Fraud
A well-structured procurement process is intended to obtain the best goods and services and to promote fair dealing in awarding certain types of contracts. Ideally, the buyer gets what it paid for, while the vendors are treated fairly. Unfortunately, the system is rife with the potential for fraud.
Schneider Wallace Cottrell Konecky LLP is exclusively a litigation law firm founded 25 years ago with a nationwide presence. Our lawyers seek to litigate complex claims involving procurement fraud in corporate and government contracts for goods and services. We are a team of aggressive trial attorneys who fight for our clients' best possible recovery.
Government or Corporate Procurement Process
Corporations and government agencies rely on a procurement process to make multiple purchases of goods and services. A procurement process generally governs purchase of office supplies, food vendors, delivery carriers, driving services, building construction and basically anything else a large corporation or government needs on either a one-time or ongoing basis. Procurement generally involves the cycle of determining requisites, accepting bids from vendors, choosing the vendor, processing the purchase, receiving the goods and invoicing and paying for the products. During the procurement process, bids are typically vetted for price, quality, quantity, timeliness, appropriateness and other factors relevant to the particular project.
A government agency must also maintain standards for fair dealing and transparency. Strict federal, state and local laws govern the government contract bidding process.
Fraudulent action by a vendor may result in the buyer not receiving the product or service as intended or at the prescribed price. When a government contract is at issue, fraud also may preclude fairness of the process to other vendors. Perpetrators of fraud may include the vendor, an employee within the company or a group of vendors and employees working together.
Change Orders that Increase Costs and Fees
Price may not be the only factor in choosing a vendor, but it is almost always considered. One would expect the price to increase above the initial bid if unavoidable situations arise; however, the vendor should be able to explain the price differential. Change order fraud occurs when the contractor submits a lower bid in order to win a contract while intending to submit a change order that substantially increases the price of the project once approved.
Product Substitution
The quality of the product is essential when choosing vendors. After winning the contract, the vendor must provide the level of quality it offered in its bid. Product substitution may include using inferior materials or supplying counterfeit or defective parts to increase profitability to the vendor.
Employee Fraud
An employee who is placed in charge of purchases may engage in fraud by using the position to obtain products for personal use or to sell at a higher price. This scheme can grow costly when high-end purchases such as computers, tools and automobiles are at issue. An employee also may favor a family business or partner with an outside vendor in a purchasing scheme for kickbacks and bribes.

Schneider Wallace represents companies and vendors that have been defrauded by a procurement scheme. Schedule a consult with our litigation lawyers in California, Texas, North Carolina or Puerto Rico for representation in jurisdictions throughout the United States.

The Short answer is yes you can use your fiance's income to qualify for the purchase of a primary residence. here are the important rules:1. your VA guarantee will be limited to your portion of the loan in this case half. 2. you the Veteran with the eligiblity must be able to afford your portion of the payment. while you as the veteran can make more to support your fiance's portion of the payment, your fiance's income cannot be used to support your portion of the payment.
Yes and no.. First, if you are engaged, and will be married before the closing on your loan, then it's possible you can use your full entitlement to purchase as husband and wife, even though your not married when you applied.. VA does not specifically say how long after the closing takes place that you must be married, but the lender will most likely require you to be within 30-90 days.. The other way is by Jointly applying.. VA guidelines address this in chapter 7, section 1 of the Lenders handbook.. Under the guidelines, must be able to qualify for your portion of the mortgage payment with your income only.. and you can only do 100% on your HALF of the purchase price..so you will need to put money down.. however, even though VA allows it, not every lender does.. Understand that VA does not lend money. they only insure loans against default.. the lenders, or those with the $$$ will oftentimes have their own rules above what VA calls for.. it's these "overlays" that makes lending rules different, one lender from another.. and for most, they will not allow for "Joint Loan's" though VA.. Another thing to note is that if you need your fiancee's income to qualify, then she must be on the loan and meet all other eligibility requirements.. credit scores, income, job history, etc.. This can be a tricky loan since very few lenders allow for this type of VA loan, so you need to call around to local mortgage brokers and see if they would allow it..

Akira is a 1988 animated futuristic science fiction film. It is also regarded as one of the best animated movies of all time, and one of the greatest science fiction films of all time. It influenced countless other works. For these reasons, I had seen the movie back in 2014, when I kinda begun setting about to become more literate in film.
It holds up, and I can't really ever imagining this film never holding up. It was awe inspiring the first time I saw it, and just as awesome the second time around. The use of colours in this film is unlike most others. Done with purpose, with meaning, so that audience knows exactly how to feel. And the animation was smooth, even with it being entirely hand-drawn.
My personal experience watching the second allowed me to really kinda see the detail the film used, and the depth of the animation. I felt, unlike usual, I was not bored and was still drawn to the story, the characters and the film overall. The violence was still visceral and actioney, not boring and expected. I admittedly had a dubbed version, but the setting of Neo-Tokyo is not jarring and the film could very easily be set anywhere, which I think is an aspect that has helped the film age so well. Despite being an Asian film, it very easily fits as a World Film, with appeal globally.


text: I still haven't found quite the right ones, but my Pearl Izumi Elite shorts are probably at the top of the list right now. The longer cut ones should minimize the sausage leg. I'd like to try the LG Neo Power shorts, but they're a little spendy for me right now.

Introduction to Cells
The cell is the basic unit of an organism and consists of a jelly-like material surrounded by a cell membrane.
It can be seen with a light microscope (LM) but many of the structures within a cell - organelles - can only be seen clearly with an electron microscope (EM). That is partly because an EM has a greater magnifying power (ability to enlarge something).
However, increasing only magnification has its limits because at some point magnification reveals nothing more - the details only look bigger and vaguer. This is because if 2 objects are a distance of less than half the wavelength of light apart, they cannot be distinguished as separate by a LM. Any object less than half the wavelength of light in size will not be seen at all by a LM.
Using electrons instead of light means that the illumination has a much shorter wavelength than light. This is good because minute detail can be detected. We say that an EM has a bigger resolving power (bigger resolution) than an LM.
There are 2 basic cell types:
Prokaryotic: bacteria and cyanobacteria (which used to be called blue-green algae).
Eukaryotic: all other cells, such as protoctista, fungi, plant and animal cells.
Eukaryotic cells, i.e. animal and plant cells.

By Al3xa. area rugs. At Sunday, May 06th 2018, 20:13:47 PM.
LAURA HUNT. Make sure it's made from natural materials. Any rules to follow when choosing the size? Generally speaking, a foot to foot and a half off the walls. What should people expect to spend for a standard 8' x 10' rug? There is no such thing as a standard price…it all depends on your budget!
Sofas always look better on a rug rather than off or worst still half on and half off. A good modern 10x8 rug should cost you between $7,000 to $10,000 depending on the silk or wool content. A fine antique rug of that size however can cost in excess of $50,000.
CECIL HAYES. I usually choose hand knotted area rugs in my installations because of their durability. A good rule to follow when selecting a size is always choose a rug that is between 1/2 and 3/4 the size of the furniture grouping. The average cost for an 8' X 10' area rug is $3,000 to 3,500.
