On Monday morning, Huma Abedin announced she and husband Anthony Weiner would be separating after a new series of sexually explicit Twitter messages sent by Weiner were reported by the New York Post on Sunday evening.
In 2011, then-New York congressman Anthony Weiner resigned his House seat in disgrace when it was discovered he'd been exchanging in lewd messages with female fans over Twitter. In 2013, Weiner's resurgent New York City mayoral bid was torpedoed by yet another sexting scandal, which was captured on camera in an eponymous 2016 documentary.
Now, Weiner has deleted his (second) Twitter account, seemingly in response to reports that he has, once again, been up to his old tricks—this time exchanging thirsty DMs with an anonymous woman described by the New York Post as a "self-avowed supporter of Donald Trump and the National Rifle Association." Weiner even apparently sent the woman a picture of himself while his toddler son was next to him in his bed.
According to the Post, this latest cyber-dalliance began in 2015, and lasted through August 2016. The woman in question, who provided a screen shots of her flirtatious messages with the former congressman, told the paper that she and Weiner had never met in person, despite his invitation to treat her to dinner at a restaurant owned by his brother, Jason. Weiner admitted to knowing the woman, telling the Post that the two "have been friends for some time."
At this point, the arc of Weiner's protracted fall from grace has moved decisively from "political scandal" to something much less salacious: a seeming addiction, no less deserving of treatment—and empathy—than that of someone battling alcoholism or drug abuse.
Getting off Twitter, the platform upon which his misdeeds have so often taken place, is a good start. The question then becomes: What happens next?

Your Revel Point of Sale is customized for your business needs as a Table Service Restaurant. This includes the ability to create tabs (for bar scenarios), split checks for small or large parties, adding modifiers to orders and many other features. Please use this guide as a tool to learn more about your Point of Sale and for training your employees on the basics.
- Login Page
- Training Mode
- Table Layout
- Bar Tabs
- Table Sheet Layout
- Table Timers
- Getting to Know the Order Screen
- Creating an Order
- Deleting Items from an Order
- Comps, Voids and Returns
- Coursing and Seat Numbers
- End of Day Process
- Credit Card Batch Process
- Locking the Point of Sale with Guided Access
Login Page
The Revel Systems Login page has a few different components to get familiar with:
- To Login and start using the system, enter the four-digit code assigned and press the Login button. For first time users, the manager's default PIN is 1234. If you make a mistake while entering your PIN, you can press Delete at any time to start over.
- To ClockIn to begin your shift, enter the four-digit code assigned and press the Clock In/Out button.
- To Clock Out to begin your shift, enter the four-digit code assigned and press the Clock In/Out button.
- To Login by swiping an Admin Card, swipe your admin card and then select whether you want to login or clockin/out.
- Anytime your Point of Sale needs to be updated with changes you've made on the Management Console, you will need to Refresh each station. To do so, click Refresh, then tap OK to confirm.
- When on the Login Screen you are also able to see if there are any orders and payments that need to be sent to the server. All Payments Sent to Server means that all of your transactions have gone through. If there is a message with a numeric value such as 3 Payments Not Sent To Server, this means that your Point of Sale temporarily dropped connection from your network or Internet connection and they will be pushed through as soon as you regain connection.
Training Mode
Training mode allows you to test various features of the Point of Sale without it effecting reporting. It is a great feature to use when training new employees or learning the system for the first time. To put your Point of Sale station in Training Mode:
- From the Point of Sale Dashboard, click on Settings.
- Tap Training Mode and make sure Enable Training Mode is turned ON with a blue oval. After this is turned on, a red bar displays across the top alerting you that it is on, which will appear an the station until it is deactivated:
- Once activated, an additional option will appear for you to decide if you also want to Print Kitchen Tickets in Training Mode. Any changes save automatically.
- Click on the Dashboard option to return to your home screen and begin testing the system with new orders:
- To deactivate, simply return to the Settings page and disable Training Mode.
Table Layout
Once you are logged in to the station, the system will display the last screen that you were on, which is typically your Table Layout or Bar Tab Layout. Toggle between the two by using the Tables and Bar Tabs options at the top of the screen.
Your table layout is customizable from your Management Console and allows you to rename your tables, indicate the number of seats available and you can rearrange the layout itself. Take a look at Building Your Table Layout for more assistance. To use your Table Layout, it's good to learn the basics of what you see on the screen:
- Sections: Swipe right and left to see programmed sections; if you only have one section, you will not be able to swipe. Section names appear at the bottom left. The indicator in the bottom center of the screen represents the number of sections you have created.
- Table Names/Seat Counts: If you have given your tables names, other than the default table numbers, the table name/number will display on the screen; seat count is identified in parenthesis below the table name. All fields are editable from your Revel Dashboard.
- Assign Orders to Tables: Tap directly on a table to begin or open an order. Then, follow the steps in Taking Orders and Order Window.
Bar Tabs
Bar tabs allow users to create open orders for customers that may not be associated with a table in your establishment. Bar Tabs can be customized in the Management Console by following instructions at TSR/QSR: Preauthorizations and Linking Cards to Bar Tabs, Tables and Orders. Once bar tabs are enabled, you can begin using them on the Point of Sale. To access Bar Tabs, make sure this option is selected, rather than the Table Layout screen:
- Pages of Bar Tabs: Swipe right and left to see different pages of Bar Tabs; if you only have one page of Bar Tabs activated, you will not be able to swipe. The indicator in the bottom center of the screen represents the number of sections you have created. Your Bar Tabs consists of arbitrary tabs numbered from 1-312, depending on how many of tabs you have activated.
- Open a New Tab: To open a new tab, simply click on a bar tab that doesn't have any orders associated with it. Empty tabs will appear grey and Open tabs will appear blue. Additionally, you can click on +New Tab and the order will be assigned to the next available Bar Tab number.
- Searching Bar Tabs: By clicking on the icon, a window with a search field appears. Here, you can search by tab#, Customer Name or Order ID. If there are multiple tabs with the entered criteria, then there will be a prompt to specify which tab corresponding to that customer name you desire to open. Upon an exact match or selected tab, the Order Window will open:
- Though Bar Tabs are most commonly used for starting a drink tab at the bar with the Link Card to Order feature, this functionality is not limited to drinks or bar stations. Depending on your desired workflow, this functionality can be used for any type of order, namely To-Go orders.
- Since tabs can be used in any order, it can be beneficial to assign a tab range or a page of tabs to servers or bartenders for efficiency and ease of use during service.
Table Sheet Layout
If you'd like to review orders in a sheet view, rather than by your Table or Bar Tab Layouts, click the icon at the top right:
You'll see a detailed sheet of all tables and/or bar tabs. A few things to note:
- The default view will show ALL tables/orders. This can be filtered by clicking on the Include option and selecting All Tables, Only In Use Tables or Only Available Tables:
- The default view is also sorted by the column Estimated Time until Available , with the soonest available displaying first. However, each column heading is sortable, so simply click on the column you'd like to use for sorting. If you click once, the table will sort in ascending order, click twice to sort in descending order:
- You can use the Search function in the sheet view as well. When you click on the icon, search by Table# or Customer Name:
- To return to an order and make changes or close it out, tap on a table, highlighting it in blue, then tap Go To Order. The order will reopen for you to make any necessary changes:
- To return back to your Table or Bar Table layout, click on the icon again.
Table Timers
Table Timers are activated by default on all Table Service establishments. This allows your hosts and servers to visually recognize the state and progress of tables and changes your table colors depending on their progress, which you can customize.
Table Timer Colors
The colors on your table layout allow you to easily see the status of each order. To see the key for each color option, on your table layout, click on the icon and the color key will appear. The amount of time that an item moves to a stale state can be customized and is detailed in the next section Time to "Stale" Table Timers: The color of the table shows its current state:
|Table is unoccupied and available for new guests to be seated.
|Table is held; it has guests seated but there are no items on the order.
Green with White Outline
|Table is held and stale, according your stale settings.
|Table is active; it is taken and items have been ordered.
Blue with white outline
|Table is active and stale, according your stale settings.
|Order has been paid.
|Order has been paid and is now stale, according your stale settings.
Time to "Stale" Table Timers
Your table timer indicators can be customized so that you can indicate the amount of time before a table transitions from one state to another. To customize your Table Timers:
- Login to your Management Console [yourdomainname.revelup.com] and navigate to Settings.
- Clear Selections and Search for Time to Stale.
- Check the boxes on the left to adjust the settings on the right.
- Indicate the appropriate amount of time, in minutes, for a stale table to go to held, active and paid status.
- Be sure to Save when finished and Refresh your Point of Sale for changes to reflect:
Once your stale timers are activated, this will indicate when a table will be outlined in white, indicating it is in a "stale" state.
Getting to Know the Order Screen
Before diving into creating an order, you'll first want to learn the basics of the Order Screen. This will help you optimize the efficiency and flow of your business. This section will give you an explanation of the major features of the Point of Sale. You can also see TSR: Orders on the POS
Buttons on the Order Screen
After you select a Table or a Bar Table, the order screen will appear. There are several buttons to review, starting from the top, going left to right, you'll see the following:
|CRM: Allows you to access the Customer Relationship Manager (CRM) and/or call names for your orders. See Managing Customers below.
|Orders: Access any orders from here. See The Orders Tab below.
|Actions: Once an item is added to the order, you can customize the item. See Actions Buttons below.This option also appears once an order has been created; for more info on this, see step 5 in Creating an Order below.
|Expand: Expand or Collapse the screen; a different view of your menu will appear taking up the whole screen. Click again to return to default view.
|Search for menu items
|Logout: brings you back to the login screen to enter your PIN
|Cancel: If a customer changes their mind, cancel order gives you the ability to cancel or remove the entire order.
|Hold: If a customer needs to step away from the cash register before paying for the order, you can use the Hold Order button. This allows you to place a customer's order on hold to ring up the next guest. When the customer returns, you can find their order by going under Orders > Held Order.
|Send: Sends the order to the kitchen for preparation
|Pay: Tapping this icon will direct you to the payments screen.
Managing Customers
Customer Management isn't very common in table service restaurants, but is available if you want to use it.
If you click on the in an order, you can search by the customer's Name, Phone #, Email, Reference Code (a code you use to identify the customer) or Company Name. You'll also notice you can toggle between your Customers - who are saved in your CRM database, as well as Call Names. Call Names are NOT associated with any customer account and thus, will not accumulate any loyalty/reward points; these are simply to call a customer by name when their order is ready. If you choose a Customer from your database, that can also act as their Call Name:
Additionally, you can click on +Add New to add a new customer directly on the Point of Sale. For more details on this, please review Managing Your CRM on the POS.
Orders Tab
If you click on the icon, you're able to see all your orders, with filters to view Open Orders, Today's Orders or All Orders. You can also search by Order ID or Customer Name:
|Open Orders
|Displays all orders that are still open - whether they have been "held" or are simply unpaid. See Closing Held Orders for more info.
|Today's Order
|Displays all completed transactions for the day
|All Orders
|Displays all orders for all time
|Displays invoices locally and those saved on the server. You can also search for invoices by Order ID or Customer Name
Once in the Orders tab, you can view additional search options by clicking on the icon. This will display an option to Manage Orders, Advanced Search and Sort Preference:
|Manage Orders
|Allows you to see open order and pick from which one you'd like to Manage.
|Advanced Search
|Along with Order ID and Customer Name, the advanced search allows you to also search for an order by Credit Card, Date Range, Serial Number (if applicable) or by Loyalty Card Number (if applicable).
|Sort Preference
|Sort preferences for orders includes: Customer Name, Date Opened, Employee Name, Order ID, Table #, Order Total, Order Type and Due Date.
Closing Held Orders
There are instances when you'll have an order held that will need to be closed out, whether paid or unpaid. Otherwise, if the order is associated with a table and is still open, you will not be able to input a new order for that table until the order is closed. In order to close a Held Order, find the desired order as shown in the Orders Tab section above. Select the order highlighting it in blue and the details of the order will immediately display. You have a few options for closing out the order:
- If there are no products on the order and the Balance Due equals the Total, then simply tap Cancel Order to cancel the held order.
- If there are products on the order and the Balance Due is zero, then tap Pay then Done to close the paid for the held order. Be sure that the Tip Amount is correct before tapping Done and closing the order.
- If there are products on the order and there is any Balance Due, you will need to either Void the products on the order (See Comps, Voids and Returns) or Pay the remaining balance bringing the Balance Due to zero.
Actions Buttons
The Action Buttons are customizable options that appear at the bottom left of the order screen. These action icons give you the ability to adjust an entire order, rather than one individual item at a time. This is a scrollable bar, so even though you may only see four options initially, if you scroll to the left, you'll see additional actions appear: All available action icons are defined below:
|Add Extra Items

|Void Item(s)
|Voids are typically for mistakes made in house, whether by the server or kitchen. Generally, items are voided before they are sent back to the kitchen. (See Comp or Void Items/Orders below)

Then, use the First half and Second Half buttons as a way to tell the kitchen to prep only ONE pizza but with different toppings on each half. This will also adjust the price of the item as well.

|Add Special Instructions
|Is a free text box to add any special notes for the kitchen for prepping the order that are not covered in standard modifiers.

Deleting Items from an Order
If you add the wrong item to an order or a customer changes their minds, you can easily remove an item from an order, as long as the item has not been sent to the kitchen or paid for. To delete an item:
- On the Open Order, find the item you want to delete.
- Swipe to the left on the product and you will see a Delete option appear in red. Click Delete to remove the item: NOTE: If a product has a grey background, then you can not delete or modify the product/ instead, follow the steps below in Comps, Voids and Returns.
Comps, Voids and Returns
As highlighted previously, comps are usually used for courtesy purposes, especially if a customer is unhappy with the item(s) received. Generally, a comp applies to food that has already been prepared, whereas a Void is for items that have NOT been prepared. Void Item(s): Voids are typically for mistakes made in house, whether by the server or kitchen. Generally, items are voided before they are sent back to the kitchen.
Both options are only available after you have either sent an item/order to the kitchen or if you have selected the Pay option on an order. Unmodifiable items or orders will be indicated with a grey background on the order. If this is the case, you will need to perform a Void or close out the order with full payment.
Performing a comp or a void works exactly the same. The major differences are:
- With Comps, you cannot return items back to inventory because, generally, the item has already been prepared.
- Your reporting will distinguish comped items and/or orders separate from voided items and/or orders.
To perform a Void or a Comp, follow the steps below:
- Within the order, choose the icon to access the Actions screen. Choose either Comp or Void Item(s), depending on the intent.
- If there are multiple items in the order, you can choose an individual item or multiple. If you want to void or comp the entire order, Select All:
- If you are performing a Void, an additional option will appear for you to indicate if you want to return the item to inventory. Only use this option if the food has not been prepped:
- Once there is a product on the right side of the screen, you can click Next to continue.
- You'll be prompted to enter a reason why you are removing the item. If you have created reasons, you can choose from the options or you can type in your reason. Click OK when finished:
- The item will be removed from the order.
- If any portion of the order has already been paid for, you will get a final prompt asking if you would like to refund payment. If you choose Refund, the customer will be refunded using their original payment method:
Coursing and Seat Numbers
There are two main ways to account for courses and seats on the Point of Sale. The first is through a series of prompts including Guest Count Prompt, Seat Number Prompt, then a Course Prompt, while the second is through the Quick Course/Quick Seating Feature.
Guest Count, Seat Number and Course Prompt
If you want the system to automatically prompt you for Guest Counts, Seat Numbers and/or Courses, you can activate these settings from the Management Console. To do so, see below
- Guest Count - Activate from the Management Console under Settings > Prompt for Guest Count.
- Seat Number - Activate from the Management Console under Settings > Seat prompt for item addition
- Course Fire - See instructions under our TSR: Course Fire article
Once the above are activated, each time you add an item to an order, you'll be prompted to:
- Enter the Guest Count window. Specify the number of guests being seated in this window and press OK, or Cancel to return.
- After choosing an item to add to the order, you'll be prompted to choose a Seat Number to associate with the item.
- After choosing the Seat Number, you'll be prompted to choose the Course Number for that product as well.
- These prompts will pop-up for every product added to an order to ensure that Guest Counts, Seat Numbers, and Course Numbers are set correctly for each table.
- You are welcome to activate/deactivate any of these prompts based on your business. So, if you need Seat Numbers but not Course Numbers, activate/deactivate accordingly.
Quick Course/Quick Seating
If you do not want to be prompted for Course and Seat Numbers with every order, you can adjust this for certain items or orders only. This helps streamline your orders for efficiently. To activate this, from the Management Console navigate to Settings > Quick Course/Quick Seating and make sure this is activated and Save.
Once enabled, two additional action options appear when selecting a product to edit within an order:
If you select 0, then the item will not have a course or seat assigned, depending on which option you have selected.
Coursed Kitchen Printing Ticket
- When an order is coursed, a Summary Ticket will be printed upon first tapping Send This shows the products organized in consecutive courses, with every course included on the same ticket. This ticket will have the Order ID, Dining Option, Seat Count, Date and Time, and any other criteria that you choose to be included on your Revel Systems Dashboard.
- When you are ready for the kitchen to begin preparing the second course, either tap Send Order again, or tap directly on the products in the OrderWindow and select FireCourse
- Tapping SendOrder will send the courses to the kitchen consecutively, as will tapping on the products in the Order Window and tapping Fire
- If you wish for your course tickets to only include the words "Fire Course (x)" to avoid item duplication, this can be activated in the Kitchen View/Kitchen Print advanced settings tab of your Revel Systems Dashboard.

How to Critique Secular Psychology
David Murray:
I've been told a number of times now that if I really want to promote a more biblical, historical, and confessional understanding of the sufficiency of Scripture that I have to prove my bona fides by critiquing secular models of psychology. So, at the risk of writing the least-read blog posts in history, in the coming weeks I plan to analyze the delights of Freudianism, behaviorism, Rogerian therapy, existential therapy, gestalt therapy, and so on. If anyone reads the whole series, let me know, and I'll send you a voucher for the therapy of your choice. My students usually sleep through my lectures on this subject. Sometimes, I do too. Regular readers and normal people, don't worry, I'll only be doing this once a week.
I Married a Same-Sex Attracted Man. And I Am Blessed.
Jaclyn Parrish:
My husband struggles with same-sex attraction. Like me, Sam came into this world with an innate and insatiable desire for things that bring death. Like me, he came into our marriage bearing the weight of pain he didn't ask for and the scars of choices he can't change. And like me, he has chosen to trust Christ—not to make him heterosexual, but to make him holy.
4 Lessons for Christians from the Harvey Weinstein Scandal
Joe Carter:
It's tempting to mock the movie industry for such blatant hypocrisy. They frequently preach to us about their superior values; meanwhile, they were overlooking abuse in their midst. But instead of gloating we should consider what we as Christians might learn from the horrific, decades-long cover-up. Numerous lessons could be learned, but here are four specific takeaways we should consider.
When Simple Gospel preaching Doesn't Seem to Cut It
Mike Leake:
I'll admit that in my darker moments and dumber times this verse is discouraging to me. Or perhaps I should say the painful reality of this verse is discouraging to me. Permit me a bit of foolishness for a moment, so that I can show the amazingness of the gospel and it's power later. That verse is difficult because what it means is that in certain seasons those who preach a truncated gospel will have tons of results, while those committed to sound teaching will feel like they are preaching to posts.
What If Tomorrow Is Even Harder Than Today?
Benjamin Vrbicek:
Over the next few months, when I would talk with her parents, I could see a question in their eyes. The question is a common one. It's the same question those who have been affected by the recent hurricanes might ask. It's the same question I hear in the understandable exasperation of many minorities in our country. And it's the same question survivors of the Las Vegas shooting are left asking.
The question goes something like this: If tomorrow is as difficult as today, or is even harder than today, how will I go on? Maybe you have felt the weight of that kind of despair.
Prayer is a Mirror
Rob Tims:
Before my wife became my wife, I had to court her. The primary obstacle to a successful courtship—other than my being broke, under massive school debt and my physique—was the distance between us: she in Denton, TX and me in Birmingham, AL. We had no mobile phones with "free" long distance. We could not afford conventional long distance calls. We grew weary chatting on AOL. So, I got creative.
Technically, I got crafty.
Why don't they report it?
A favorite from the archives:
As more and more stories of women's encounters with Canadian radio host/musician/producer Jian Ghomeshi have come to light (and sparked an investigation by police thanks to at least three women coming forward to file complaints), Emily and I have spent a great deal of time talking about this situation in specific, but assault in general. The other night, I asked:
Why aren't more women reporting these types of crimes?

Next Man Up For Mizzou at Defensive End
A year ago, solid defense and special teams played a large role in Missouri's second consecutive SEC East title. Defensive ends Shane Ray and Markus Golden were a big part of that, but they're on their way to the National Football League. The "next man up" cliché applies. It's hard to tell about some things during those spring football games. However, the defensive line caught my eye—especially the number of solid players at defensive tackle. They do have to find replacements at end for Shane Ray and Markus Golden. I get the feeling that Marcus Loud may be the next big thing at DE in Columbia. Someone else may step up too. Given the track record, the Tigers will be OK or better up front. Winning football starts with the big guys and that is going to be a strength of the Tigers defense again in '15.
The offense didn't make much of a splash in the spring game. I want to think that the defense had a lot to do with that. That unit includes a lot of familiar guys on the field from a unit that had much to do with the Tigers success in '14. It's also pretty hard to surprise someone when you line up against every day in practice. I also liked seeing a lot of familiar names on the offensive line depth chart. Quarterback Maty Mauk will benefit from that and Missouri generally ran the ball effectively a year ago. Missouri ran the ball well last year and it is reasonable to assume based on the number of returnees that they'll run the ball well again in 2015.
Special teams are the big unknown right now. The Tigers were solid in that phase of the game a year ago and that really helped around mid-season when the offense was scuffling. We won't have a good handle on that until mid to late September.
The 2015 schedule appears to be another favorable one. Admittedly, the non-conference schedule isn't much to look at with Southeast Missouri, a trip to Arkansas State and Connecticut. The benefit is the chance—in theory at least—to get significant playing time for second and third unit players who may be needed later in the year.
As far as the SEC portion of the schedule is concerned, it's a matter of who is healthy and who is not.

#MeToo: The Oscars Could Become the High Point
The Oscars, one of the most prestigious events of the year, is traditionally is characterized by a big theme each year.
Last year, it was the newly inaugurated presidency of Donald Trump; the year before, it was the controversy over whether African-American actors receive enough appreciation in Hollywood, having been omitted from the nominations.
Doubtless, the next ceremony on March 4 will be dominated by allegations of abuse by producers, directors and actors. The evening could even become the high point of this controversy, just as it did two years ago when host Chris Rock ("Grown Ups"), who is black, caused an international stir with nuanced, witty and intelligent opening remarks. Hardly anyone had expected such a critical, forthright and, at the same time, self-deprecating speech. Interestingly enough, his performance was not only the highpoint but also marked the end of the discrimination debate. Overnight, no one spoke of it any longer. Perhaps it was because Rock had already said everything and had allowed every position enough room.
However, for various reasons, one can't compare the topic then with the current accusations. The host of the upcoming Oscar ceremony, however, is in store for an unbelievably important role. Even choosing the host is a highly symbolic decision. Jimmy Kimmel is already scheduled to host. It would be far from surprising if he is replaced by a woman in order to set an example. One way or another, the whole world will be eagerly awaiting the opening remarks in the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles because they will be virtually held as Hollywood's official reaction to the accusations of sexual misconduct. But it will also be an opportunity. Chris Rock used that opportunity by making a statement for eternity.

Last, last weekend, as I mentioned we would be doing, we did fit a massive apartment-hunting spree into 2 days. Let me just say, if you or anyone you know needs advice on any apartment in the vicinity of Raleigh, send them my way! I seriously had to have looked up at least 50 apartments on my phone just while Daniel drove us around, in addition to the gobs that I went through online ahead of time. Even though I'd exhausted the internet resources on the topic, one landlord gave us a thick booklet of apartments in surrounding areas, so I proceeded to go page by page, find each one that listed either a good price or no price, Google map it to see if it was close enough to Daniel's job, then if it was, try to find prices on their website, and if the prices were good, call them for any availabilities. All as fast as my fingers could fly, let me tell you, and while my battery got lower and lower. It was in.san.ity. I knew we only had so much time, and it all really depended on me getting to the bottom of every possibility as fast as possible.
We probably drove by and/or visited 15 maybe? I don't remember at all. But the reason for the rush was that, first of all, Daniel was still at his old job in WV all week, so we only had weekends to get things done, and the new start date was coming fast. So we had two options: find an apartment that happened to be available immediately so we could both move in, or find one available in the semi-near future and he would stay with some distant relatives in the area until we could move into the apartment, and I would stay back home with my parents in the meantime. The latter, while the option lending to less panicked packing and moving, was obviously not the preference, but the one that we ended up with.
We did finally find ourselves an apartment, but it's not available to move in until mid August. So, I'm here, and Daniel is there for 2 1/2 weeks. I never dreamed this long-distance thing would ever happen again--we were long-distance for a large part of our time dating, and it killed us to be apart--even once he lived 25 minutes from me and we saw each other every day. We got rid of that problem when we got married! I'm really just trying not to think about it, or else I would be absolutely miserable. Plus, I ushered in this momentous weekend of him leaving with a cold that gave me the most painful sore throat I have ever had--his last day here I literally couldn't talk. Not ideal.
But my whining is over--ever since my sister's husband was deployed a couple years ago, I definitely have a new perspective on missing your spouse. Two weeks? I'll be fine. ;)
So this Monday, though it feels way too much like we're back in 2011, I am grateful:
~ I am getting better, and have a voice now.
~ I ate at Chickfilla (for the first time in about 9 months) while we were apartment hunting--without any stomach pain after. Can you say exciting? I just discovered their grilled nuggets and cole slaw are gluten-free, dairy-free, soy-free, and everything! Who knew??
~ Moving near a big city will mean more allergen-free food options, both grocery stores and restaurants. And that, my friend, changes everything!
~ Daniel starts his new--potentially incredible--job today!! I felt awful for him every day he went to his last job, and he has deserved this new one for so, so long. He's excited, and I'm excited. :D
~ We did find an apartment--and secured it before someone else got it first! Those things go fast!
~ And we're moving! To North Carolina! Finally!

Проект Земельної спілки України: "Десять кроків для подолання корупції у земельних відносинах"...
Land News from Ukraine

- Категорія: Land News from Ukraine
The State Agency of Land Resources made public the draft law "On Farm Land Turnover," which over three months has been revised at the agency with participation of business representatives.
"The project now should be coordinated by the ministries, in order that in September it was submitted to the parliament," deputy head of the market management and land assessment department of the State Agency of Land Resources Yuriy Nykytenko explained.
According to him, in the new wording of the document, reduction of possibility of speculative land sale is envisaged. In particular, in the repeated alienation of land plots a differentiated rate of state duty will operate for attestation of the purchase/sale agreement. Over the first year of the land alienation, one has to pay 100% of its normative money value (the average norm is UAH 20,000/ha), from the second to the 10th year, the payment will reduce by 10 percentage points - from 90% to 10% of the norm. An initial attestation of the purchase/sale agreement will not be 1% of the agreement amount, but 1% of the land's appraised value.
The government also decided to protect tenant farmers. In case of termination of the rent agreement, the landlord will not hamper harvesting, and in case damage is inflicted, he/she will compensate for the missed profit fivefold. "Let this norm be, it will not hamper anyone," Director General of the Industrial Milk Company Alex Lissitsa commented on this provision in this way.
By the way, the norms on revision of rent rates disappeared from the draft law (on raising the minimum rate to 3%) and introduction of a duty for development of the farm land infrastructure at 1% of the land's assessment value. Those provisions will be included into a special draft law.
To remind, the deputies several times blocked consideration and adoption of this draft law. In 2011, the government draft law has been turned down. And the draft law by Hryhoriy Kaletnik was removed from consideration at the stage of the second reading. As a result, the deputies decided at the end of 2012 to prolong a moratorium for the sale of farm lands until 2016.

The Minister of Agrarian Policy and Food: Direct foreign investments into Ukrainian agriculture increased by 6.4% in 2012

I would like to point out the discussion "Investments into agricultural sector of Ukraine" that took place within it. Thus, agriculture panel was marked as one of the most visited events. Over 500 people attended it. These were the delegates of the largest agricultural sector partners of Ukraine, international organizations and major foreign investment companies," said the Minister.

Thus, 2012 direct foreign investments into agriculture increased by 6.4% compared to 2011. Besides, the Minister has said that last year it was used 16 billion UAH of capital investment that is 11% more against 2011.
"This positive trend is observed due to the measures taken by the Government. Thus, it provides measures to ensure clear, transparent and predictable conditions for the agricultural business. Therefore, foreign investors are more interested in our agriculture. The specialists predict that the Ukrainian agro-industrial companies may attract 20-30 billion USD during the next 5-10 years," Mykola Prysyazhnyuk said.

Their funding will be carried out under the state guarantees on the amount of about 700 million UAH," Mykola Prysyazhnyuk said. According to the Minister, within these investment projects it will be started the production of combine harvesters at «Kherson machine-building plant» in cooperation with CLAAS, as well as at «Paton Welding Plant» together with New Holland. «Ukravtozapchast" will produce modern powerful tractors with Italian company Landini. Besides, wide-seeder and tillage equipment will be produced at JSC «Red Star».
"According to our calculations, these investment projects will increase import substitution of agricultural machinery up to 40%," said Mykola Prysyazhnyuk.

With all the medical treatments that are out there, surely there is something that you can do to improve your knee health and eliminate the pain. That is what you want to do and you can.
Now you can get stem cell therapy for knee pain. It is actually a simple procedure that will leave you feeling much better than you did before. It is easy to do. You just need to find a clinic that will work with you every step of the way, literally. With that in mind, you should go online to find a good clinic in your area.
There is a way to make your knees better and it can now be done without surgery. There is a lot to stem cell therapy for the knees. You will find that out when you do a little bit of research. You will see that it is a real thing that you can do and it is not just science fiction at this point. You can have the knee recovery that you want in a timely manner.
It all starts with your own blood and tissues. The experts take your own stem cells from your blood and they culture them. Then they inject those cells into the knee and you start to experience recovery from all the pain. This is because there is a natural way to heal and the stem cells literally repair the damage that has been done over the years. That is a wonderful thing.
All you have to do is find the right clinic to do the job for you. There is not any need for you to live with the pain anymore. You can find a solution that will last and you do not need to have surgery after all. That is great news to you and to your family. You can experience what it is like to finally be free from knee pain.
Think about the mobility you have lost over the years. It has impacted your life in a negative way and you want to find a solution. Stem cells set everything right again. You do not have to sacrifice a life to get stem cells. Again, they come from your own blood and tissues. It is just a matter of getting those vital cells to the injured area so they can start the repairs.
You can regain that mobility and comfort once again. It is all about the repairs. The natural stem cells will induce regrowth of cartilage and tendons and other tissues. That will be what repairs your knees instead of a surgeon. You could not ask for a better solution that will last a lifetime. You can have good knees again and that is great news.
Many people have done this and now it is time for you to do the same.

We Create Custom Software Solutions
We will manage the whole process – from market analysis through design and development to testing and refinement.
What We Do
Web Development
The development of front-end and back-end apps written in Typescript is our cup of tea. And we are not afraid of swimming against the current if it means achieving better results.
There are probably no currents in the tea anyway, but you get the point. We develop the apps using modern, yet well proven technologies such as React, Vue, NodeJS or GraphQL. We enjoy what we do. And a good beginning makes a good ending.
Mobile Apps Development
We strongly believe in the benefits of native code. Our mobile apps meet the highest standards when it comes to speed and security. In order to place your business ahead of the competition, we are committed to working with the latest cutting-edge technologies such as augmented and virtual reality or Progresive Web Applications.
Specialty of the House
Web Apps
We can serve you elaborate front-end and back-end development. Our web apps are fast and the overall process of development is very time-efficient, thanks to the synergy of our team and close cooperation with the client.
The creation of following projects took us countless mouse clicks. Now you can discover them with just a single one.
Our Approach
We do not work for our clients. We work with them. The client becomes a member of our team and has total control over the progress. Our clients always know what they pay for.
Without proper communication, no outcome is as good as it could be. We know it. However, we also know that the communication itself is not enough. The trust lies in transparency. Therefore, we can provide our clients with a complete access to our intern time tracking software. The project progress is reported regularly, of course.
The client becomes a team member. It takes more effort, but once you see the final product, you know it was worth it. The tasks of our clients are to set the budget and to authorize particular functionalities to be featured in the app. At least once per month we evaluate the progress together and plan the next steps.
Code quality
We develop the apps using solid modern technologies. Thanks to the chosen tools, our work is very time-efficient. However, the technologies are not the only reason. We are meticulous and a bit afraid of our tester, to be honest, so even the first draft must be nearly perfect.

Monitoring your server and security is essential. If your website goes down and you are not aware, it might stay down for hours or even days, is this is terrible, both for your human customers who will not be able to find your site, and to Google.
Don't worry, below you will find 4 tools that will help you with that.
# Pingdom
This is one of the oldest and most popular website monitoring tools around. The starter plan starts at $12 per month, and it will check if your website is up every minute. You can customize what happens in case your website goes down, and you can include up to 10 different websites on the same plan.
# Apica Monitoring
If you need something more sophisticated, or if you are looking to monitor the uptime and performance of cloud or mobile applications as well, take a look at Apica. They offer some very advanced monitoring features like load testing and scale testing. There is a free trial available if you want to test the services at no risk.
# Sucuri
This tool will monitor the security aspects of your site. For instance, it keeps track of all file modifications on your server, to make sure that no malicious code was added without you being aware of it. They also check for known vulnerabilities, and they even have a service to clean your server in case something bad happens. Worth a look.
# Logentries
This service allows you to monitor the log files from your online application (it can be hosted on your own server or on third party servers like Heroku). You can set custom tags, and if those tags appear on the logs, it can take specific actions (like sending you an email). This is very useful for complex applications that might require different actions in case of different crashes or errors.

Profile: Jump studios
With an enviable track record in designing workplaces for a portfolio of big-name clients, this small London studio is now diversifying into graphics and interaction work. John Stones talks to Simon Jordan, one of its co-founders, about the future
Rather than put our names above the door, we wanted something with strategic intent,' explains Simon Jordan about his and co-founder Shaun Fernandes' decision to settle on the name Jump Studios for the practice they set up nearly ten years ago.
'Businesses are looking for someone who can move them, the idea of something that would challenge expectations and redefine markets they are involved in. Not evolution, but beyond that somehow. A jump,' he says.
And that's what the pair have done, using their diverse skills to develop a distinctive way with interiors for some of the biggest brands in the business, from Levi's to Red Bull. Their backgrounds are slightly unorthodox – Fernandes trained as an architect and worked in theatre design before joining Ron Arad's studio as a senior designer, while Jordan has a background in advertising, working as a planner and strategist.
This pairing of skills is reminiscent of the world of advertising – as is, suggests Jordan, the studio's approach. 'We want to find a truth in a brief – we're looking to extrapolate something intangible from the tangibles to create a brand,' he says.
The consultancy's founding client was Nike, which commissioned Jump to design its UK headquarters. The resulting work, completed in 2002, put Jump on the map. It also crystallised its characteristic, heavily brand-focused approach, which has been applied to workplaces for companies such as Red Bull, Wieden & Kennedy, Engine and LG, and now Matalan, too. This shows, suggests Jordan, that the studio's approach has demonstrable value across the spectrum, which he is also justifying with post-occupancy studies.
'Design has a particular reputation and is quite a hard sell – people don't understand its real value, so we need to find the evidence that it works, the proof, rather than just rely on the work as a selling tool. Ten years ago you could rely on winning some awards and catching the imagination, but now it is different,' explains Jordan.
Obviously the past couple of years have been hard as companies have heavily reined in capital expenditure. 'But we have fared reasonably well,' says Jordan. The studio is far from quiet, beavering away on various projects including a redesign of a swathe of Selfridges' menswear department, and office interiors for clients such as Comic Relief.
One of the main struts of Jump's survival strategy has been to do smaller projects in London such as jewellery boutique Belmacz, which is to open shortly in Mayfair, as well as upmarket estate agent Crayson in Westbourne Grove. Another has been to diversify into graphics and interaction design, either on their own or in conjunction with interiors.
'The digital is bleeding into the physical world, and I think this is an interesting opportunity for architects to think about how we can use the digital realm to enhance the physical environment,' Jordan says, before quoting approvingly Rem Koolhaas' dictum about architects being liberated from the obligation to build.
The consultancy has already designed a virtual interior for Fiat's UK website which references its classic Lingotto factory, and is working on a couple of confidential large-scale projects that combine the physical and digital, as well as the 'personal project' Musicity, a website and an app which Jump has evolved in collaboration with DJ Nick Luscombe.
Jump's office is based near Spitalfields in London, and is made up of a relatively small team of eight. 'There was a time when groups like us were in the ascendancy, and being small and fleet of foot could work in your favour as clients looked beyond big corporate consultancies at more directional outfits,' says Jordan, slightly wearily. 'But with the way the world has gone, being fleet of foot now means being able to mobilise in different market places – while it is quiet here it would make sense for us to have a representational presence in overseas markets.'
While he is 'open to exploring strategic options', there's nothing to report yet. But clearly there could be a few more leaps ahead.

Borrowers of home loans can avail several benefits of owning property that the government offers as home loan tax benefit due to income tax deduction under Section 24. Banks and non-banking finance companies such as Bajaj Finserv offer home loans to applicants desirous of owning a home or property.
Under income tax deduction under section 24, homeowners may claim a deduction for a certain amount on their home loan interest, provided the borrower or his family resides in the house property. They can claim the same amount of home loan tax benefit even if their house is vacant. However, if they have rented out the property, they can claim the entire amount of interest on the home loan as deduction.
Borrowers can claim deductions under Section 24 of the Indian Income Tax Act, which offers home loan tax benefits.
To claim income tax deduction under Section 24, the borrower must have taken the loan after 1st April 1999, for construction or purchase. It is also necessary for the borrower to have completed the construction or acquisition within 5 years from the end of the financial year when they availed the loan. The borrower must have the interest certificate available for the interest payable on their loan.

Editor's blog
If a creative industries debate at the House of Commons this week is anything to go by, the Liberal Democrat element of the coalition Government is in denial about 40 per cent cuts to education in the design sector.
Challenged from the floor by Seymour Powell's own Dick Powell about the cuts, Lib Dem MP Don Foster, who co-chairs his party's policy committee on Culture, Olympics, Media and Sport, said he didn't know what the D&AD chairman was talking about. It seems education budgets aren't being slashed, just differently funded, if Foster is to be believed – funded, we assume, through the £9000 fee levy on students.
Oh well, that's okay then. We won't be missing out on top creative talent any time soon, just because prospective newcomers have the wrong postcode or come from lowly stock financially, or educational institutions lack the wherewithal to support them. Tell that to the colleges currently making tough decisions about resources and courses.
It is as well, given Foster's stance, that the design community is prepared to muck in and do its bit to foster young hopefuls with an eye to a career in design. Indeed, Seymour Powell has been working with a girls school near its west London studio to demonstrate to its students that there are careers in design for women. Female members of the Seymour Powell team have been engaging with school students – at the instigation of school staff, which is particularly encouraging.
Seymour Powell isn't the only consultancy 'giving a bit back' in this way – nor is the local school initiative its only foray into education. The Brand Union famously runs college schemes, Elmwood chairman Jonathan Sands has a university collaboration up his sleeve and loads of designers pride themselves on being visiting professors or assessors. Indeed, we'd like to hear more from other individuals and consultancy heads involved in educational projects.
Organisations such as D&AD and the Design Museum meanwhile expend huge effort in delivering education to kids and creatives at all levels – from schools to professional development. It is in their remit, but also in the interests of the communities they serve.
The debate providing a backdrop to the Foster/Powell clash was concerned with 'creative clusters' – the regions of England, Scotland and Wales identified by a report from the National Endowment for Science, Technology and the Arts last year as attracting creative businesses and innovators. The question was how to encourage such clusters by identifying factors that promote growth and those that impede it.
A plus point mentioned in the debate as stimulating creative businesses was proximity to and links with universities – the very institutions currently under the financial cosh. So as a nation we are looking to maintain our creative edge – and presumably international respect for offering superb design education that attract fee-paying students from across the globe. But how?
Sounds like we might find ourselves back with the old atelier system before long, where emerging talents sit at the feet of the master by way of an apprenticeship. It could be that the designers and consultancies devoting time and lending expertise to schools and colleges might be on the right track.

Eighty-nine percent of consumers expect you have to a website, even if your business is just you and a laptop. A website is no longer optional, it's a business necessity. But if you're not quite ready to publish your own business website, registering your own domain name is the first step to securing your online brand and professional image.
«Professionalism: A branded email shows the world your company is established and professional. A generic or free email may project inexperience – or even worse, raise doubts on whether you're a real company at all.
«Brand: Develop your new domain name to feature your brand name products or services. All domain names are unique but there are only so many good ones relevant to your interests.
«Direct Navigation: This occurs when a client types "YourDomainName.com" into their browser directly without even searching to find your site.
«Email: Use your domain name to host email addresses. Use email addresses like firstname.lastname@example.com.
«Credibility: A domain name is more credible to put on a business card or advertisement in a newspaper or magazine than a free or generic email address.
«Marketing: YourDomainName.com is much easier to say, spell and read than Facebook.com/whatever/123z56k. Looks much better in print too.
«Mobility: Consumers are more mobile than ever and now have easy access to the Internet via their cellphones so there are more opportunities for people to use the Internet and visit your domain name or web site.
«Search Engine Results: Most web developers will confirm that having a keyword rich domain will help your website show up better in search engine results.
