The Long Road Back
In the past two months, the topic foremost on the national consciousness has been the trail of devastation left by Typhoon Yolanda. And for good reason. It was, after all, the strongest storm in history to ever make landfall. It has caused untold suffering for which there has been no apparent reprieve. And as it turns out, Typhoon Yolanda has been a baptism of fire for a government that, until Yolanda, was popularly viewed (if mainstream media were to be believed) as one that could do no wrong—or at least that's what all those well-timed surveys told us. And so let me add to the on-going discourse.
Much has been said about the blunders committed in the handling of the aftermath of Yolanda. There have been many. None of the excuses and televised statements have proven sufficient to justify the acts and omissions in response to the disaster; or appropriate to alleviate the anguish and loss felt by so many. After all, what consolation can be had from never before heard bureaucratic terms such as "legalizing" aid before it can be given? Or the abhorrent practice of selective and prioritized distribution of aid to allied mayors (to the dismay of an opposition Mayor in Cebu, for example, whose town was equally devastated)? Don't even get me started on the government's declared policy of keeping the number of casualties as low as possible, such that they have stopped counting the number of dead.
One particular statement perfectly encapsulates, and perhaps explains, the manner and the nature of government's response to Yolanda and its victims: "Bahala na kayo sa buhay niyo".
When those now infamous words were broadcasted on Youtube, thanks to one courageous journalist, it was literally painful to watch. I almost regret clicking on the link that led me to witness such display of sheer, unbridled arrogance matched only by an equal degree of callousness. Those maestro-like hand gestures didn't help either. How could one be so blind as to not notice that the entire orchestra had just lost not only all of its instruments but also all of its limbs to play along to his charade?
A quick televised response to the video followed soon thereafter. No, it was not a mea culpa, but an attempt to rationalize. It is claimed that the statement was taken out of context.
So let us examine the context.
By now, the world has come to know of the anguish and desolation that the victims of Yolanda have had to endure. CNN's no-holds barred coverage put things in the kind of honest, biting perspective never before seen on local television.
But there is nothing quite like being on Ground Zero to really understand, in clear and unequivocal terms, the exact context in which, "Bahala na kayo sa buhay niyo" was said. Over a month after Yolanda, I went to Tacloban with my husband, cousins, and companions from Liloan, to hold a simple gift giving for kids and distribution of relief food packs, water, and sacks of rice to families in various evacuation centers there.
I had been to many other areas ravaged by Yolanda. Nothing prepared me for what I saw in Tacloban. The entire city was in ruins, cloaked with a shroud of despair. In one breath, I could smell the sea, in another, a whiff of death and decomposition. The enormity of the troubles facing the local government and the people that remained there was magnified by the palpable void left by a national government that should be perfectly capable of undertaking comprehensive relief and rehabilitation (especially with the billions of dollars in aid that has poured in), but has been utterly wanting in performance.
And so, after all, it was not that "Bahala na kayo sa buhay niyo" was taken out of context that made it so offensive. It was that the statement was said at all. Plainly, there is simply no context in which one is permitted to be so inhumane and dismissive of the suffering of others—especially when one purports to be there on a mission to alleviate.
So where does this leave Tacloban and its people? On a path, one would hope, to reclaiming their lives and their broken city, aided by those, local and foreign, who have walked with them since the typhoon, to fill the void left by those (one in particular) so hopelessly blinded by the lure of another path—the one to 2016. Will the latter path lead to redemption? Well-timed surveys aside, one can harbor a guess.

2009 Corvette Z06 with 720 Miles on Ebay
Reality shows have made it more popular and maybe even glamorous to go and find out what is in abandoned storage containers. Sometimes it even pays off. The container in this story actually was holding a 2009 Corvette Z06 with 720 miles. The new owner put it up for sale on eBay where the current bidding is in excess of $30k.
Key Takeaways:
1. Opening an old storage container revealed a 2009 Corvette Z06 with only 720 miles on it.
2. The new owner is only interested in turning it for cash and has listed the Corvette on eBay.
3. The current bid, as of the time of the writing of this snippet, is $34,500.
Quote: "What you are looking at is a slightly scratched, but otherwise complete and never registered 2009 Z06. In all respects, it's treated as an abandoned vehicle, and the Duluth-based seller says the VIN doesn't show it to be a stolen car."(Kautomen, 2018)

The disciples were called Christians first at Antioch.
"Meanwhile, the believers who had been scattered during the persecution after Stephen's death traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch of Syria. They preached the word of God, but only to Jews.
"20 However, some of the believers who went to Antioch from Cyprus and Cyrene began preaching to the Gentiles[f] about the Lord Jesus.21 The power of the Lord was with them, and a large number of these Gentiles believed and turned to the Lord.
"22 When the church at Jerusalem heard what had happened, they sent Barnabas to Antioch.23 When he arrived and saw this evidence of God's blessing, he was filled with joy, and he encouraged the believers to stay true to the Lord.24 Barnabas was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and strong in faith.

Rita Ora and Cara Delevingne might be best buddies, but it looks like Cara's 'wifey' has just bagged herself a new boyfriend in the form of superstar DJ and producer Calvin Harris.
Word on the street is that the pair have been hooking up in secret, and the intimate pic Calvin posted of Rita suggests the street may be right. The snap of Rita looking cute on the airport runway was captioned "You again". Yes, again – that's what we thought.
Latest Stories
According to The Sun, close friends have been saying: "They are having a great time and are really into each other." And after Rita's very public break-up with Rob Kardashian (following that Twitter tirade), we're glad to hear it. The source said: "It's early days, but they're keen on each other."
Let's just hope Cara's into third wheeling.

Discussion in 'Pokémon Trading Card Game' started by Water Pokémon Master, Sep 4, 2018.
Whoah, Ingo & Emmet is pretty good
Wasn't it in a previous post regarding this set that stated every booster pack will have a guaranteed Pokemon GX card?
If so this set is huge for making the game more affordable. A lot of good GXs in here.
That Fairy Charm Ultra Beast tho
Never been a giant fan of them, but still it's a shame they only lasted five sets.
Holy crap I love this set! I really hope it comes to the west. Also, do reprint sets usually mean that the generation is soon coming to an end?
The new trainer cards look amazing! Though it's a shame N didn't get reprinted
Some translations!
Spoiler: Cosmog
Cosmog — Psychic — HP60
Basic Pokémon
Ability: Cosmo Guard
As long as this Pokémon is on your bench, prevent all damage done to this Pokémon by user's(?) attacks
[C] — Mutter — 10
Spoiler: Cosmoem
Cosmog — Psychic — HP100
Stage 1 — Evolves from Cosmog
[C] — Recover
Heal 20 damage from this Pokémon
Fairy is starting to look really good with this set though. Anti-Ultra Beast Charm is kind of huge, but at the same time I'm not certain it's needed when you can just play the Fairy version of anti-GX Alolan Ninetales to stop all GX Pokemon since if you're playing something like a Gardevoir GX deck, you're techning in Alolan Ninetales GX from Fairy Rise anyway.
It's mostly that Stadium that's pretty huge. Making everyone else need 1 more energy to attack is pretty massive, but decks seem to run a standard of 3 stadiums minimum nowadays, so it's kind of easy to get rid of.
All translations up, plus shiny Decidueye-GX line!
Looks like I still can't compete with the elite when it comes to translations.
Ah, well. Maybe one day...
They might've clarified "EX Ultra Beasts" on the Fairy Charm either because they just wanted to copy and paste the same template from the previous Fairy Charms, or they might've been preemptively covering themselves in case they ever end up printing an "Ultra Beast Badge" or something (like the old Team Plasma Badge, but "the Pokemon this card is attached to is now an Ultra Beast")
*sobs violently* This set is so good!
It's a little hard to see but the shiny Rowlet and Dartrix definitely have texture akin to the Shining Legends shinies. Just that little extra detail is so nice--I'm REALLY excited now, I really hope we get these in the west.
It's pretty unprecedented for a new era to refer to a retired mechanic – i.e. that the SuMo cards have continued to refer to EX cards, even having replaced it with GXes, is not really something we've seen before. This might hint that rather than retiring EXes or GXes, never to be seen again, they may leave the EX mechanic as an option on the table to use again in the future.
Why they'd do that, I don't really follow, but since this is the same block that brought back the retired Lost Zone mechanic without so much as renaming it, they may be trying to future-proof the TCG so that the expanded format is more viable/coherent (power creep will always kill it, though).
An aside; I think this set is as close to the 'North American style' as I've seen the Japanese sets get – i.e., no cohesive theme, blatantly money grabby (yeah, the card selection is pretty good, but you're buying it for the SRs) and pretty disappointing to see, imo.
Well then. I don't have to get all he Battle Chataleine crew. Hey aren't all stupid situational.
Ingo & Emmet are pretty good.
Wonder Labyrinth Prism is nuts!
Shaymin Prism is good for Rayquaza GX
That is all.
Yep, Team Up will be awesome. Look at that shiny Rowlet : D Thats' what we want to see.
It sure does. Just three more main sets after this one before the next generation drops (fall 2019)
Thank you ^.^
New Ninetales again and shiny Eevee, yay! ^.^
Another very nice looking card. I dont check the site for a week and I'm suddenly bombarded with goodness! The Eeveelution GX artworks, shiny eevee, an alternate Alolan Ninetales, this Shaymin. Man I'm excited for what's hopefully coming here too in the near future.

When I try any website, the computer goes to the Excede Service Activation screen. It worked fine earlier today. My service was activated over a year ago. No one to talk to on Sunday so no service until hopefully tomorrow after work.
Rick I don't know if they are working today or not, try the exede face/book page there might be someone there.
Thanks Bobbie
Hi Rick,
As Bobbie said, this is an admin problem we can't help you with.
Just a question, can you see your modem's status page on this link:

I am having the same problem, tech support said there was an outage in this area
Is that true?
Hi Susan,
You should also start a ticket by emailing Kimberly like she told Rick above:

"Hey Rick, something is off here and I'd like to take a look and see what I can do to help. Please send me your info over to email@example.com. Thanks!"
My internet is back, I restarted everything
I had that problem one time, before I knew about this forum, used a friends computer to cancel 40 listings on e/bay Started to get my old computer out and go back to Dial up. Well this happened twice, but the first time Kimberly walked me thru it, the second time it was the free virus program Avast that wouldn't allow it to connect. I think telling people about this forum should be mandatory. I guess I'll say thanks for all the nice people that don't take the time. Susan,,, most don't even acknowledge they are up and running again.
Having the exact se issue here and it has happened a couple times before, what is going wrong?
That or leave it for now if you can so they can look at it while its broken so to speak.
But do send the email either way so they can look over your account with you and check everything
Hi Charlotte, if you're still experiencing the same issue with your activation screen please send me your account and contact information to firstname.lastname@example.com. We would need to perform modem troubleshooting on our side to resolve. Thank you.
Lindsey, I did! I unplugged the modem and router for the night and next morning connected Excede straight to my desktop (no router) and it connected so I forgot the old network on all of our devices, reset the router, took all my router files off the computer and re-installed the router, connected the new network to all our devices and it worked. I still don't know what was happening but it seems to be something to do with the IP address? I don't know what is going on, it has happened randomly three times in the past several months. It takes me to the Excede Service Activation screen and asks for a Customer Code. Thank you for following up!!! I didn't even know you existed and calling the number for Excede has proved frustrating in the past! :)
Hi Charlotte, that is great news, glad to hear your connection has returned to normal. Feel free to send an email if you need any further assistance. I would love to help out if needed. Have a wonderful day!
Did you get your issue fixed Charlotte?
Hey, yes! I finally just unplugged my modem and router and went to bed. The next morning I connected Excede straight into my modem and got connected on my desktop without the router connected. I then figured it to be a router issue so I removed all my router stuff from my computer, reset the router, and re-installed it again. I took each of our devices (phones, ipads, etc) and forgot the old network and connected to the new and it all worked again. This has happened three times before over several months and it seems to have something to do with the IP address. I know just enough about computers to be dangerous. lol I wish I knew exactly WHAT was making it happen and why it just randomly happens and why I get the Excede Service Activation Screen when it does. :/ Thanks for following up with me, it sure is frustrating to have to go through all that and not understand what the problem is!
Charlotte, did you ever talk to Exede Lindsey or Exede Diana about it to have them look at your account from their side? As most will contest here, and as I had when I had Hughesnet, I had my router plugged in to the modem and never unplugged and never had any issues. Even now with Exede I have the same router plugged in to the Exede modem and have never got that screen. That's why it makes me think it's something weird on the back side that they need to look at for you.
I am having this exact same issue on December 18, 2015. I'm going to call Exede customer service to see whether it's a problem on their end or mine.
Exede customer service fixed my internet connection after only 10 minutes on the phone! Thanks Exede!!! (For anyone who's wondering, one of their satellites was being a little glitchy. They ran diagnostics then rebooted my modem wirelessly.)
Hi Luc, Thank you for sharing your experinece. Happy Holidays!

Meanwhile, I can't get that song from School of Rock ("if you wanna be the teacher's pet...") out of my mind, and it's been almost a month since I watched it. Give me 500 words on "Jack Black - why is he so infectious?"

A big shake-up in the markets world with the planned sale of NYSE Euronext to IntercontinentalExchange.
The deal means the 200-year-old New York Stock Exchange would be taken over by a company set up just 12 years ago.
It is an indication of the pressures on that iconic symbol of US capitalism from new technology.
ICE – as it is known – lets investors use the internet to trade futures contracts for energy and commodities as well as financial products called derivatives.
An ICE-NYSE Euronext tie-up leap-frogs Deutsche Boerse to become the world's third-largest exchange group with a combined market value of close to 11.5 billion euros, behind CME Group, ICE's largest US-based rival.
The 6.2 billion euro deal now has to be approved by competition regulators, in the US and Europe.
If it goes through ICE – which is based in Atlanta, Georgia – has indicated it would spin off the Euronext side of the business, which includes the Paris, Amsterdam, Brussels and Lisbon stock exchanges.
"The Board of NYSE Euronext carefully considered a range of strategic alternatives and concluded that ICE is the ideal partner for NYSE Euronext in an evolving market landscape," said Jan-Michiel Hessels, chairman of NYSE Euronext.
Analysts said the deal will give ICE a strategic boost with control of Liffe, Europe's second-largest derivatives market, helping it compete against U.S.-based CME Group Inc, owner of the Chicago Board of Trade.
"ICE is after Liffe, that is the crown jewel of NYSE Euronext," said Peter Lenardos, analyst at RBC Capital Markets. NYSE bought Euronext, including Liffe, for eight billion euros in 2007.
"Strategically it makes sense for ICE to enter the European derivatives space in a meaningful way," Lenardos added.
ICE Chairman and CEO Jeff Sprecher, who will hold the same roles of the combined group, said the deal had been "well received" by regulators after he and NYSECEO Duncan Niederaur completed a "whirlwind tour" in the United States and Europe ahead of Thursday's announcement.

The story of this Pitch Pine began thousands of miles away across the Atlantic. Pockets of forest dotted along the East Coast of America were the original birthplaces of this reclaimed Pine.
From the sandy highlands of North America to the North Bank of the River Mersey in Liverpool, it's fair to say that this Pine has been on quite the adventure. We unearthed this Pine in a disused warehouse at Garston Dock in Liverpool.
Garston Dock played an important part in the growth of Liverpool during the Industrial Revolution. With an increase in trade Garston went from sleepy fishing village to thriving industrial town and the North Dock was constructed during 1867 to handle ever-increasing coal imports.
Garston Dock still operates to this day, handling around 600,000 tonnes of cargo each year. Bringing the facilities into the 21st century resulted in demolition of some warehouses along North Bank, which is why we are now proud custodians of Northbank.
Sitting high in a warehouse on the edge of the River Mersey were these stunning pitch pine beams. Not one to let great wood go to waste we worked hard to extract these historical artefacts and return them in their full glory to our restoration centre in Cheshire.

I was so happy that Nina and Matt decided to use Bellissima for their wedding day. I actually have known Nina for a while, she lived across the street from my family, and was friends with my sister. So I think she saw something that my sister posted on Facebook, and that's how she found me. Gotta love Facebook!
As soon as we started talking about spots to do their engagement session, they immediately told me they were more of a Starved Rock type of couple. I was really excited, because A. I've never shot there, and B. I've never been there. It's actually only about an hour away from my house, but we just have never gone for whatever reason. There is only one problem with spots that far away, I don't get to scout them out beforehand. So when we drove out there, we took a bit of a long way around, then we hiked to the first location which is the French Canyon in Starved Rock, and we sorta missed the turn and hiked above the canyon. Well, you know how that goes. I truly thought I was going to die though, carrying all my equipment and hiking, I definitely figured out how out of shape I was! And to top it off, it was hot, muggy and buggy. So not a good combo. But once we found the location, I was in awe that this was in Illinois! Just gorgeous. It being a Sunday, it was pretty crowded with people, but we managed. It was a really weird green color cast everywhere, but it was truly amazing. After that we headed to a nearby town to get some shots on an old bridge. Yes, I love my bridges. I love the texture, the lines, just one of my favorite type of places to shoot. Where the old railroad track was, you could actually put your foot through it. We actually had a conversation about how much work it must have been to put all of that together, BY HAND! We certainly have it easy these days! Well enjoy the photos everyone. Thank you Nina and Matt for spending the day with me, I had a great time and loved the locations we found!

(1) The cheapest SIM Cards seem to have been increased to $5 (which is somewhat understandable given the cost of VF and Telecom SIMs although in my opinion the current VF Value offers are quite good for the price)
From http://www.2degreesmobile.co.nz/pricing
(2) Has data really been increased to $1/Mb???
The pricing page still says "50c per megabyte to use the mobile internet " yet the terms and conditions document http://www.2degreesmobile.co.nz/c/document_library/get_file?uuid=a6865062-505a-4895-8980-a2c75911e794&groupId=10128 includes a table which is titled "Calling Plans and Specific Terms and Conditions, The following terms and conditions apply from 12 February 2010".... and says "Data associated with mobile internet usage (non MMS) $1.00/MB, rounded up to the next KB and full cent, Minimum 1c charge per session"....
It is surprising that this has changed in the T&C document from 12 February 2010 when the pricing page itself still appears to have the ?old price and clause 23(c) suggests that there would be at least 10 working days notice and when possible 30days prior notice if charges materially increase - you would think plenty of time to change the pricing page. It is also suprising that 2degrees would increase data prices when they are relatively expensive compared to alternatives - Does anyone know whether they have just made a mistake in their charges table or whether the price of data has actually increased?

Robert Pires has responded to the recent criticism aimed at him by Danny Mills, denying he brought diving to the English game.
Mills moved to claim it was disrespectful of Pires and Thierry Henry to attempt that famous failed penalty combination, but then praised the completed version of Suarez and Messi this week.
"When Messi and Suarez try it, it's magical but when Pires and [Thierry] Henry try it, it's a lack of respect. That doesn't make any sense," Pires responded in The Times on Thursday.
The former England international defender also sniped at the Frenchman by claiming he brought an era of diving into the English game, which Pires also denies.
"I didn't bring diving to England. There was one controversy against Portsmouth, but there was contact," Pires insisted.
"When you run fast with the ball and dribble, a slight touch from a defender or even movement towards you can unbalance you.
"I looked for a foul sometimes, I provoked the defender for sure and most of the time I dribbled past, but I never dived and have never intentionally disrespected anyone.'

Motorstar Fox 125 for sale in the Philippines
The Motorstar Fox 125 is a sportbike produced by the local motoring assembly firm Eastworld Motor Industries Corporation. The Fox is known for its large fuel tank and plastic clad body which gives it a muscular frame with a sport-themed finish.
Why should you buy a Motorstar Fox 125?
Performance and engine specs
Using a 125 cc, 4-stroke, single cylinder, OHC gasoline engine, the Fox is capable of reaching a top speed of up to 100 kilometers per hour (kph) and can pounce from 0-60 kph in under 10 seconds. This is thanks to its superb output of 11 horsepower and 12.2 Nm of torque. When this motorcycle is let loose in highway conditions, it can fetch in a fuel efficiency rating of 60 km/L.
The design of the Motorstar Fox 125
The Motorstar Fox has a twin tube frame chassis partnered with a telescopic front suspension and a single monoshock rear suspension. Its 17-inch alloy wheels can easily be stopped at a distance of 7 meters when runninga at 30 kph thanks to its drum brakes in its front and back tires.
Outlining the Motorstar Fox are sharply styled plastic fairings in a monochromatic color. Its front cowl features a large mask with HID headlamps and in-line elongated side lamps. Its angled seating position offers a comfortable posture for the rider. It also comes with a chrome-plated chain cover that protects its powerplant from the elements. Scaling at 114 kilograms, this motorcycle can carry a maximum load of up to 150 kilograms.
What are the standout features of the Fox 125?
The Motorstar Fox has a very durable body frame that absorbs shocks and vibrations. This electrical or kick started sportbike has a hallowed front underbody that helps it to freely steer its front wheel. The Fox's underpowered engine may actually be its strong point as it adapts more to urban driving conditions without losing its racing identity. Its seating position even allows riders to lean back slightly, much like a professional motorcycle racer when turning into corners. Its windshield also helps prevent drag to hit the rider especially when reaching its speed limit.
Fox 125 price and availability
A brand new Motorstar Fox costs between P60,000 to P70,000, depending on the dealer location. A used model costs P40,000 and below for 2010 models and older, based on its general condition, mileage and amount of customization.
The Motorstar Fox 125 has always been criticized as a half-baked sportbike because of its 125cc displacement. While it won't be hitting the track with the big names in the racing scene, it still has the engineering and design of a sportbike. Locally, it competes with nameplates such as the Kawasaki Ninja, the Yamaha R6 and the Honda CS1.
In general, motorcycle riders looking for a fast urban ride will shortlist the Motorstar Fox because of its:
- Fully-covered frame
- Comfortable seating position
- Bang for the back
- Race bike engineering
Interesting facts about the Fox
Motorstar is known for its affordable lineup of motorcycles. The Fox was once the brand's flag carrier.

Hayley Jenkins, a 22-year-old singer and music major at Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa, moved into Deerfield Retirement Community in Urbandale, Iowa, in January, and performs twice a month for residents in lieu of rent. Here's what the millennial had to say about how the college and senior living dining segments compare.
Q: What is something you think university dining should adopt from senior living?
A: Something I would recommend for Drake to do is a themed dinner—I know they have Thanksgiving and kosher meals. But we do a gourmet dinner at Deerfield with the artists that have paintings in our gallery. We had this beautiful gourmet dinner with steak and lobster—kind of a surf and turf—and amazing desserts. It was very high-class and felt very special.
Q: Do you think other students are also craving a finer dining experience sometimes?
A: I do. I think the older you get, the more flavorful your palate gets. I love going out downtown and experiencing new foods that I wouldn't normally eat; for example, Thai food or French cuisine or high-class dining.
Q: Do you find any similarities in what the collegiate and senior demographics enjoy?
A: [Deerfield] goes all out for their Sunday brunch, and that's maybe a similarity at Drake—their breakfast is really good as well. Breakfast also starts earlier [at Drake] for people with 8 a.m. classes.

DESIGN IT TOGETHER ! – with interdisciplinary cooperation for innovation
Interdisciplinary and holistic thinking is the ability to overcome one's own limitations. This enables new perspectives and forward-looking ways of developing new ideas, optimised products, services or new spaces.
When solving complex problems, design is the central factor for innovation. Design is the link between users and the expert knowledge of interdisciplinary development teams. In a sense, design has empathic interface competence.
Innovation arises at the intersection of the three factors people, technology and economy. The necessity of change and innovation therefore, unites different disciplines and thus helps to create new perspectives. In the Master Design you will learn innovation competence – very close to practice. Being innovative today more than ever requires the ability to master complex processes. With us you will learn design as a living development process in a stimulating environment of creativity and excellence.
The Master Design stands for a holistic understanding of design and for new forms of collaboration between design, architecture, computer science, engineering disciplines and economic and social sciences. You will learn ways of thinking, working and proceeding, taking in the perspectives of various disciplines and thus gaining impetus for new approaches. In this way you will acquire a clear profile in the future fields of design and related disciplines.
The Master Design is modular and allows you to study individually. Here you will find detailed information on our innovative teaching concept and on all questions concerning application and admission to the course.
Target group
The Master's in Design is aimed at graduates in the fields of product design, architecture and interior architecture as well as neighboring disciplines of the "cultural and creative industries".
The teaching concept is based on a holistic use of design and an interdisciplinary transfer of ways of thinking, skills and working methods.
Two study focuses
The Master's degree supports specialisation in the fields of ecological, social or technological product design, interior architecture and architecture.
Two specialisations are available:
· integrated design processes (idp)
· interior architecture & architectural design (iaad)
Students can work on both practical and research-oriented topics.
Mentor-based model
On the master.design course you will be closely supervised by a mentor. This is because people learn most effectively from other people – from experienced experts, that is to say.
Our mentors will supervise your work (Focus Project) from your first semester through to the completion of your Master's thesis.
Free choice of Master's project
You can choose your special subject for research to suit yourself, and will then concentrate on it intensively for three semesters. For this you will specify a 'research or focus project', which you will work on in your first semester through doing a work experience in industry or in a cultural institution.
In the further course of the Master's in Design, this project will continue to be central and will finally issue in your Master's thesis. Over the three semesters you will have individual support as you work on your topic, and in this way can go deeply into your special area of research. This will be supplemented by cross-departmental lectures, seminars and competence workshops, where a number of overarching themes will be touched on.
'Research-based learning' is the name of this approach, whereby students work independently on a project chosen by themselves. The advantage of this is that as you will be concentrating intensively for three semesters on a specific topic, you will acquire a clear profile. You will learn to take on responsibility for your own research, to carry a project through to its conclusion on your own initiative and so will be well equipped to tackle demanding professional challenges at a later stage.
Working as part of a cross-departmental team
The Coburg Design course is noted for its cross-departmental approach. When you develop new products or spaces on our course, you will also be researching intensively into the technical, economic, ecological, social and psychological factors which have an influence on your Master's project.
The interdisciplinary process leads to completely new design solutions. The numerous prizes which Coburg graduates have received for their projects in recent years demonstrates the effectiveness of our approach.
The Faculty of Design at the Coburg University of Applied Sciences comprises the three disciplines of product design, architecture and interior architecture. A lively dialogue goes on between these subjects. Thus you can look forward to working in a stimulating environment that goes beyond the immediate confines of your chosen special subject.
Expert networking
Designers from Coburg enjoy an excellent reputation in industry and in their chosen field. We encourage lively exchanges with companies, design offices and cultural institutes all over the world. Numerous cooperative projects are open to you even while you are still studying, making it easier for you to gain entry to a career subsequently. Our MA graduates can look forward to taking on leading responsibilities in future in the fields of industry and culture.
Individual plan of study
The Master's in Design stands for work that is precisely calculated and made to measure. Rather than mass-produced education off the peg, you can choose from your own completely personal programme of study, with a richly varied range of teaching courses and research projects to choose from.
A wide range of additional study options will complement your concentrated focus on your special area. These include lectures and seminars on subjects like 'Innovation and Project Management', 'Marketing and Communication' and 'Social Spatial Solutions'.
Supplementary semester for students with completed BA at the end of 6 semesters
Requirements for admission to the course are completion of a university degree course consisting of at least seven semesters of study (210 ECTS credits) with an overall mark of at least 'Good' (2.5), plus the successful sitting of a suitability examination.
Course applicants who have completed six semesters of regular study (180 ECTS credits) can be admitted to the course on condition that they make up the missing semester with a 'supplementary semester' as part of their Master's degree course.
Shaping the future
The way in which we shape our environment makes a direct impact on the quality of life. Complicated ticket dispensing machines, for example, marginalise the elderly, while soulless skyscraper ghettos give rise to social problems.
Are there better ways of doing things? Our Master's course trains designers to enjoy making a contribution to the future.
Social, humane and environmentally conscious design, which not only bases itself on state-of-the-art technology but can also hold its own on the market – this is the objective we have in mind in the ongoing development of our disciplines. Not in a naively utopian spirit, but with tools of well-grounded analysis and mature consideration – as they are taught on the basis of the integrative approach of our Design Faculty.
Coburg Design Pilot – a design laboratory
Designers and architects should be creative – there is no doubt about that. But where does creativity come from? Creativity is still often regarded as something mysterious – based on the idea that either you have it or you don't. And yet the American inventor Thomas Alva Edison was convinced long ago that 'Creativity means 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration.' Perspiration, that is, in the sense of 'intensive work'.
Design is intensive work applied to a problem. Experts on the Master's Design course have developed an innovative instrument for the purpose, one that represents a unique phenomenon in the field of design education in Germany: the Coburg Design Pilot.
The Design Pilot is a digital tool which improves creativity, structures design processes and encourages interdisciplinary exchanges. In an extended sense, it offers a complete 'laboratory of design' which has been proven to lead to innovative ideas.
Our Master's degree students learn design with the help of this instrument. What is involved is the combination of inspiration and intellectual experiment with discipline and a structured approach. (www.coburger-designpilot.de)

Is this the face of a 17 year old boy or a 41 year old man? It's a TAY Time Chat Scandal! You see that up there is Joseph Minala, a Cameroonian player who just made his debut in the minor division of the Italian football club SS Lazio, his face tells a different story.
Ahhh... the 14th of February, the only day of the year when I love working with my father, you see my family owns a flower shop here in Venezuela, so umm flower shops are boring, except on Valentine's Day... it's the only day when I feel useful in that environment, I may not do much when it comes to encourage people cause my social skills are close to non-existant, but I certainly know how to plan a project, and the thrill of having multiple deadlines only makes it better... I guess I just can't take a slow day at the office... it's the only day where I don't feel useless at the flower shop...

Nach's Drink for the Weekend
Spiced Cranberry Sangria
You'll need:
- 2 cups of cranberries, rinsed
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup water
- 2 cinnamon sticks
- 15 whole cloves
- 12 whole allspice berries
- 1 star anise
- 1 red delicious apple, sliced thin
- 1 granny smith apple, sliced thin
- 1 orange, sliced thin
- 1/2 Grapefruit sliced
- 1 cup orange liqueur
- 1 bottle of Tempranillo wine
How to:
- Over medium heat, bring sugar and water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Stir to dissolve the sugar.
- Once the sugar has dissolved, add the cranberries and spices. It's best to put the spices in a muslin tea bag rather than loose in the pot.
- Cook for about 3 to 4 minutes until the berries have burst.
- Remove the mixture from heat to let the flavors infuse for about 10 to 15 minutes.
- Remove the spices from the syrup, transfer the syrup to a small bowl and put it in the fridge to cool.
- While the cranberry syrup is cooling, slice your apples and orange and add to a pitcher.
- Add the orange liqueur, cooled cranberry syrup (including the cooked cranberries) and the wine to the pitcher.
- Cover and put it in the fridge for 3 to 4 hours.
- Stir before serving.
For those wondering how things are over here... ermm still the same, which is good, in Maracaibo things have cooled down a little (except the air temperature, today it broke the 105F mark); 600 miles to the east in Caracas the situation is still hairy, and judging by the pictures and the declarations... they are no plans of stopping until the government offers a solution... Anyhoo Have a great weekend people! And remember never trust a Furby ;)

Golf is a game that seems to grow with a person. When a person is young, they may be a better player who has a lower handicap. As they get older, their golf score may increase, but their love of the game usually stays as strong as it has ever been.
Getting a Different Perspective on Golf
When a person is younger, they often have more time to get out on the golf course because of having fewer responsibilities. As they get older, their life becomes more hectic, and the time that they have for getting out on the golf course is less. Many individuals comment that as they get older and as they take on more responsibility, they value the time that they have on a beautiful golf course with their friends or even playing a round or two alone
Getting older and taking on more responsibility means that they will spend a good part of their day inside an office chained to a desk. Playing golf gives a person the opportunity to be out in nature. They are able to take in fresh air, enjoy perfectly manicured grass, and take some time to find their center again or compose themselves.
Taking in the Beauty of the Course
Thanks to the work done by golf management companies, avid golfers are able to explore new and challenging courses. Of course, most people have their go-to golf course. It's usually the course that is closest to where they live or where they work. But a lot of the fun of playing golf is getting out there and discovering something different. Although many courses have similarities, no two courses play the exact same way.
Many avid golfers, especially those who have been playing for a number of years, don't just focus on hitting the ball. They like to take the time to appreciate the beauty of each hole that they play.
For many, the biggest benefit of going out and playing golf is the sense of excitement and exhilaration they get before going out to play the game. Even if the end score is not what they hoped for, they are happy that they had the chance to get out in nature, get away from the stresses of life, and enjoy themselves while playing a game that they love.

Welcome all to our video channel on Jobs and Careers This is Elsa from Freshersworld.com Today I will be talking about the career options in commerce Commerce is a field that deals with business
or trade. It is all about studies of market, economics, industrial policies, fiscal policies
etc. Commerce in a broad way acts as an interdisciplinary field of expertise as it also comprises auxiliary
branches of study like accountancy, business administration, economics, company law, marketing,
banking, e-commerce, advertising etc. Commerce is an important field to be studied and researched
as the nation's economy simply gets affected due to it. The overall policies of nation's
economy depend upon commerce. In India, courses like Bachelor in Commerce
(B.Com), Master in Commerce (M.Com) are available as basic courses. Specialised fields further
include B. Com in Foreign trade, tax procedure, E-commerce, Office management, etc. Apart
from MBA or M.Com, other degrees like Master in Financial Control (MFC), Master of Corporate
Secretary ship (MCS), Master in Financial Administration (MFA), Master in Financial
Management (MFM), M.Com in marketing , M. Com in Co-operative management etc. are also
available. Commerce has a vast and varied scope as a
career. Owing to globalisation, foreign banking and e-commerce, number of opportunities for
employment has increased. Chartered Accountant is still regarded as a coveted career. Apart
from it, there are banking profession, company secretaryship, accountancy etc. to look at
as a career option. Candidates from non-finance sectors also have ample opportunities in mass
communication, law, hotel management etc. Apart from plentiful opportunities in industrial
jobs, a commerce graduate or post graduate can also choose academia. Many commerce students
or degree holders also go for Public Service Commission at State level as well as national
level (UPSC). Apart from Civil Services, there are Indian Economic services, Indian Statistical
services, exams of revenue departments etc. Profession in commerce is the best profession
for those who have liking for accountancy, numbers, business transactions, policies,
management, cost related issues, etc. Banking job is also another option as it is valued
for its fair salaries, job securities and social acceptance. Other jobs like working
as a consultant for investments, insurance, capital market, taxations, commerce related
laws, etc. Thus a new edge of self employment can be created in the form of Stock broker,
Business firm, Trade consultant, Financial analyst, Corporate lawyer, Tax consultant
etc. Remuneration for a candidate having commerce
background entirely depends upon his academic qualification, merits, training, experience,
location of job, responsibilities stipulated and the employer who is hiring the person.
One can never see such a big range of salaries offered in any other field, except commerce.
A fresh commerce graduate till highly qualified commerce candidate with MBA or other doctorate
degree on his sleeves, earn handsomely. From 10,000Rs per month till 5 lakhs Rs per month,
any figure could be a possible remuneration amount for a commerce candidate. Apart from commerce background, the candidate
must possess other skills like interest into working with numbers, computing skills, analysing
numerical data, skills in quick calculations, organisational and administrative skills,
accuracy and neatness, ability to work hard and that too for long hours, logical thinking,
practical business orientation, decision making, general knowledge about investments etc we will be back with more such videos do stay connected with us do not forget to hit the subscribe button

The Elite Manual Pull-down series front projection screen is a great cost effective retractable screen with a dual case design for wall or ceiling installation.
- Manual M84NWV Projection Screen
- Lanyard
Fantastic projection screens. We love their durability and ease of use.
Very simply put I got what I paid for, which is a screen that looks inferior to my wall that is painted with a bright white flat paint. The screen has an easily seen lack of reflective uniformity that is distracting when scenes are panned as the less reflective areas seem to be moving in the...
It is a good screen at a good price, the videos look great, if your budget is not very high, I recommend this screen. I have the 7820HD viewsonic projector, and it is wonderful this add ..
Easy to use and looks good. Wish I had bought a bigger screen.
easy to hang good quality great price if you can do without the coolness factor the screen is identical to the power version. Works great for our 9' ceiling due to the extra drop.
This is a great screen for the price. THe image on it looks great!
This screen, overall, has been acceptable. It's lightweight, has good reflectivity, and the picture is crisp. However, even after a year of being mostly open, the screen has never been flat. Slight vertical warbles can be seen off to the sides, because the edges of the screen aren't tight.

Using Pinterest to Grow Your Business
Using Pinterest to Grow Your Business
Class Description
Pinterest might not be the biggest social platform out there, but some argue it's the best for translating your marketing efforts into actual sales. Research shows that 87 percent of Pinners said they've bought a product because of the site, and 93 percent said they've used it to plan a future purchase.
But don't even think about hopping on Pinterest with the exact same content that you're using on other social sites. Pinners are famous for being passionate about their pinning, and they've got some pretty clear expectations about the types of things they expect to see on their boards.
Alexandra Evjen, known as the "Pinterest queen," has helped countless brands such as Target, Home Depot and Anthropologie create digital content that keeps consumers wanting more and makes products fly off the shelves. With her creative eye and strategic mind, she'll help you find success on Pinterest, too.
In this class, you'll learn how to:
- Establish your brand on Pinterest.
- Foster growth and community.
- Create a powerful, rich and shoppable pin.
- Develop a content strategy for sharing on Pinterest.
- Prep for conversions.
- Understand Pinterest Analytics.
- Adjust your game plan based on the data.
Joshua Proto
Amazing! I had never thought of Pinterest as a meaningful ad platform, but I was super wrong! If one has a physical product or market in the lifestyle or fashion sectors they need to seriously consider this platform. Alexandra is easy to understand and presents her information in an engaging and thorough style. She truly is a Pinterest master!
Crystal Cervantes
This class was awesome! I have never really thought about how to use Pinterst to help build my brand. The only thing I wish she would touch on is how to collaborate and communicate to reach other Pinterest influencers.
This is a really decent class. Good information, still relevant in 2019 and delivered at a good pace. Recommended.

I hate going on a blind date, I really do.. Why? Because I had my shares of blind dates and they were all, without any exceptions, disappointing. I mean when a friend or someone close to you set you up with some one you would think that its ok since they know you enough to know who to hook you up with.. WRONG!!!
They were either too short (as I am 177) , too fat, too stupid, or from a totally different background..
I was going out with my friends for dinner when one of them called and said "they told me not to tell you but I thought I you have to know, they are going to introduce you to a guy today, but please please do not tell them I told you as they might kill me".. Of course I went crazy but did not say anything.. I think it is my right to know..
I tried to act normal but since we have known each other for 20 years they knew that I knew.. they went crazy on me saying ma bi3jibni il 3aba and that I don't even give them the chance to introduce me to guys.. so I went along..
I accepted to go out with that guy who turned out to be related to my X.. we talked on the phone for a couple of times and then he disappeared on me.. to tell you the truth I felt relieved.. I felt that I was pushing my self and maybe he felt it too…
Last year one of my close friends called me saying that she has2 new guys for me.. I was what the hell!!! The first is a very handsome doctor, who is related to her relative, and the second is a friend of a friend that saw my picture on hi5 or something and was interested..
I started to make excuses and then of course had to accept after she went crazy. I told her that I will go out with the first as I hate the internet make ups..
I went out with my friend, her relative and they guy.. he was not bad, a dentist who lives in Canada and seemed to be a nice guy.. he was traveling the next day so he took my email address and promised to email me.. and he did the minute he reached Canada.. he said how much he had fun the other day and that he would like to know me more.. I replied back and then he disappeared on me…
I think all that was a reason for me to meet the third guy.. my friend called again and told me "come on, il talteh nabteh, you have nothing to loose, just meet him once" and I did.. and I am glad that I did..
To be continued…

The mobile Web has gotten a bum rap. It spends most of its time either in the shadow of the desktop or playing the role of the native app's frumpy friend. Luckily, we've got the tools to change that. Progressive enhancement, mobile-first and responsive design can help lead us towards a more unified, future-friendly Web. That's the good news. The bad news? These tools are worthless if you don't have license to use them.
What's holding us back, in many cases, is our clients and the conceptual models they cling to. If our clients are to embrace the potential of the mobile Web, then we need to get them thinking beyond desktops and apps.
The Promise Of The Mobile Web Is a Tough Sell
Let's face it: designing responsively takes longer and costs more.
When we introduce different screen sizes, resolutions and device capabilities, there's a lot more to design. We've got more layouts to wireframe, different gestural interactions to consider, and a broad range of functional capabilities to support. All of this packs on significant testing time as well. Still, time and expense can be justified, especially when compared to the cost of trying to retrofit device-specific optimizations onto your design. You can make rational arguments to justify longer timelines, and most companies can find additional resources when they want to. There's an obstacle much bigger than time or cost: it's the obstacle of change.
Change Is Hard
Changing the way we do things is hard. Breaking from convention is scary. As humans, we're naturally averse to this. Saying, "Got no time, got no money" is much, much easier than investing in a forward-thinking strategy that requires a fundamental shift in our notion of what a website is. We're battling against stereotypes that we've collectively created for the Web. Ask someone to envision a website, and they'll picture a 960-pixel-wide layout, comfortably nested in their desktop browser window. Ask them to envision a mobile website, and they're bound to think of apps. They'll picture a simple task-based interface with limited content, minimal navigation and elegant transitions. Desktop and mobile: two entirely different beasts.
Expectations are Project Baggage
We need to wean ourselves and our clients off the baggage that these expectations introduce into projects. We need to abandon outdated conventions. That's easier said than done, so let's attack the problem head on. Below, I'll share the methods we use to change the way people think of the mobile Web; if you have other or different methods, let's hear about them. How do we get ourselves and our clients to let go of the conceptual models they cling to?
Fact is
With billions of smart mobile devices in the market now, running away from mobile site won't be really a good idea as more people use their mobile devices more than they use their phones.
