Microsoft recently turned the spotlight on some high-profile customers that are using its latest cloud, machine learning and Internet of Things (IoT) solutions as part of what it calls "digital transformation" initiatives.
At this week's Digital Experience event in New York, Microsoft touted over a dozen customers that are piloting or implementing its wares, such as Bank of America, Hershey, Fruit of the Loom, Geico, Maersk and UBS -- all of which are using some of the latest Azure-based technologies.
For example, Hershey is using Azure Machine Learning, Azure IoT and Power BI to better predict the temperatures in the vats it uses to manufacture Twizzlers. The company does this by reading feeds from sensors on the vats.
"This is a beautiful correlation plot that we run in Power BI," said George Lenhart III, senior manager of IS innovation and disruptive technologies at Hershey. "We turned on the Machine Learning, and by adjusting every five minutes with the prediction of whether it was going to be heavy or light, we were able make changes accordingly."
Maersk Transport and Logistics, one of the world's largest logistics providers, plans to use Microsoft's technology to automate its supply chain and predict scenarios that could cause delays, with the goal of reducing its costs by tens of millions of dollars.
"It's all about speed -- how do we go to market faster, how do we do much more with less and how do we increase our return on investments," said Ibrahim Gokcen, Maersk's chief digital officer.
Gokcen said Maersk started using the Azure Machine Learning, IoT suite and other services about a year ago, and has decided to engage in a long-term effort to build out an Azure-based digital marketplace. Maersk is also considering the potential of Azure Stack and of running it on the company's 1,000-plus ships throughout the world.
"It will be great because as we build applications in the cloud, we will be able to just drop them on-premises and do some streaming analytics on data that we generate on the vessels that can't be transmitted to the cloud when they're in the middle of the ocean. Then when they reach a port, they can replicate and synchronize the data," he said.
Patrick Moorhead, principal of Moor Insights and Technology, said the Digital Experience event is a sign that Microsoft is making more progress with customers than it often gets credit for.
"I think they're making a lot more progress with their customers than people realize. And if there's one thing I can fault Microsoft for, is I think they need to be telling this story more," Moorhead said. "They have infinitely more customers using Google Cloud and [Amazon Web Services]."
Before turning the spotlight on its customers, Microsoft officials at the event revealed the results of a Harvard Business Review study it commissioned that validates the viewpoint of Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella and leaders of just about every major IT provider and consultancy: Companies that want to remain viable must embrace the shift toward digitization.
Based on a global survey of 783 people with various roles in business operations and management, the survey found that only a handful (16 percent) considered their operations to be fully digital, though 61 percent said they have started going down that path. Only 23 percent said their businesses rely on many digital technologies. The survey is available for download here.

Sail Beyond Tomorrow by Doug Welch
Modern but mystical, Sail Beyond Tomorrow tells the story of two parallel romances: professors Susan and Richard and their widowed parents, Nate and Kathy (respectively). Welch does an excellent job developing two very different relationships and balancing the attention between them. From the passionate love of Susan and Richard, the reader gets a deep, involved romance. And from the second-time-arounders Nate and Kathy, we see hope for the painful and challenging later years, when mortality seems to play a bigger role than discovering romance. Still, these four characters each have something to share with the reader and each has his or her own lesson to learn.
Add to the mix a plot riddled with past demons coming back to haunt our heroes, plus an ancient foretelling that may (or may not?) come true… Sail Beyond Tomorrow gets you thinking and feeling all at once.
The Three R's
Rating: R, for complicated themes and some intense intimacy… nothing raunchy, but it will get you to pay attention!.
Recommendation: This tale is not what I'd call a "light" read in that the themes really make you think. It's a quick read for it's length and fast pace. Anyone open to reading about love unfolding through the good and bad times… this is worth a look.
Re-read: You may want to skim it again to study the nuances of development, but this isn't one that has to be re-read. You'll get what you need from the first reading, then pass it on to a friend.

Seven is a sacred number in Jewish liturgy. It appears 735 times in the Old Testament and repeatedly in various rituals, including wedding ceremonies where the bride circles the groom seven times as the sheva bruchas (seven blessings) are chanted. So why on our seventh trip to Israel didn't my husband and I run to the kotel (the surviving Western Wall of the ancient Temple in Jerusalem) and immediately immerse ourselves in spirituality and, like other Jewish pilgrims from around the world, push handwritten prayers between the cracks of the bricks? Let me get back to you on that with an impressive (though likely invented) rationale.
The truth is, upon our arrival, Tel Aviv's Carmel market beckoned and the freshly made halvah was a mighty sweet welcome. We bypassed the hot hello of the chili craze that has hit Tel Aviv and dashed past the pepper-laced sesame candy that was on display. As expected, the market spices were aromatic and exotic. I was so inspired that I plan to cook this summer with a Bedouin mix rather than the usual BBQ marinade. We may just have to concoct Arak cocktails as well. Dreaming about how we could wow our pals back home, we hightailed it to the Levinsky Spice Market in search of the freshest zatar and other goodies. Ever distractible, we found ourselves sampling the local craft brews at Beer Bazaar Levinsky, just off the main street. Our favorite? Shapiro Stout. Only in Israel! The bartender was both accommodating and happy to talk — when asked where he was from, he responded "depends on your politics—I am either from Samaria or the West Bank." It appeared to us that he was from a treasure chest, especially when he explained that it was happy hour which meant that for every glass of beer we drank we got to take home a bottle. So with a makeshift six-pack we made it back to our hotel, avoiding (among other things) the casually dressed guy speeding past on the sidewalk with an Uzi strapped to his back and a skateboard beneath his feet.
We stopped briefly at our beachfront hotel to admire Tel Aviv's ability to blend Rio, Fire Island and a pinch of Miami's Fontainebleau before setting off for the rehearsal dinner – we were, after all, in Israel to attend a wedding.
Abulafia is a famous Arab bread shop and restaurant in the old city of Jaffa. The bride, an Israeli Jew, met the owner's daughter at Columbia where both were international students. Pretty fabulous; except that the evening of friendship wasn't quite complete because the baker's daughter had to stay in America while awaiting her green card. Her family took great care of us. The food was delicious and familiar with Middle Eastern flavors that transcended religious and ethnic differences.
One of the guests met the groom's parents when they moved from France to Boston two years ago. I asked what prompted the immigration. Turns out Sophia was held hostage in the kosher grocery when terrorists attacked Paris in 2015, and she no longer felt safe from anti-Semitism in her home city. Quite a conversation starter given the recent events in America—but I won't go there.
Where we did go was to a most glorious wedding in Caesarea, an ancient coastal town south of Haifa. The invitation instructed us to arrive at six and be prepared to stay until 3am. They weren't kidding. The pacing was more akin to a baseball game than a volleyball match, and the food, drink and tributes were plentiful. Everyone settled in for the night. Perched on a bluff overlooking the sea at sunset, we gathered in front of the chuppah while surfers caught the waves below. Inside flowed into outside, formality was limited and once the ceremony ended the attendees rushed the family who never had a recessional.
Almost immediately the dancing began in the adjacent banquet hall, and the newly betrothed couple were carried on their friends' shoulders (forget chairs) as the hora and every form of circular movement filled the room with frenzied joy.
As the evening unfolded some guests revived themselves on beach beds, while those more committed to the dance floor refueled on trays of treats passed among the dynamic crowds.
Israel is a late night nation and a careful one. It's the place where the rental car rep makes sure you know what to do if you get a flat or a traffic ticket before he releases you into the urban wilds. It's also a country with many check points, not all of them military. We hitched a ride back to Tel Aviv with our new Israeli friend, who we'd met at the wedding but who lives most of the year seven (again!) blocks from us in Manhattan. Just as we left the venue, he was breathalyzed. Though he had consumed only a couple of glasses of wine over the course of the long evening, the officer suggested he stop for water and a rest before heading back. It wasn't a punitive exchange, rather more like a parental representative recommending caution. At various points during our journey we were reminded of rules and how to get around them- often by the same person! Ask me off line for more examples.
Which brings me to Friday, or as I think of it, "caper day." We had been advised to bypass the crowded beach in Tel Aviv, and go instead to Hof Hatzuk, or Cliff Beach, in Herzliya, just up the coast. When we got there we discovered that it was not as charming or secluded as advertised, so instead we went to the nearby Ritz Carleton, figuring we could pass as hotel guests and slip in—after all, we are American tourists. Well, not quite. First of all the lobby entrance is several floors above street level and signs to the contrary, the way in is all the way on the other side of the marina's shopping mall. No problem. My husband (a.k.a. 007) found a Ritz room key on the ground so we could swipe ourselves into the back door. Damn. It must have been expired. No worries. We zipped around to the main entrance and walked past the guards with confidence. Then we were off to the pool except—oops. The floor for the pool is not marked. Luckily the nice room service person told me it was on twelve. Almost there. Except you have to swipe into the pool level. What to do? Fortunately the pool attendant appeared and offered to let us in. All he needed was our room number. OO7 told them we were staying in room 821. "Where did that come from?" I asked, once we were safely sipping on lemon water at poolside, taking in the expansive view. My accomplice said he had seen the room number that the couple in our elevator entered as we stopped en route to our destination. Don't leave home without my hubby.
By the time we got to my relatives' apartment for Shabbat dinner we were ready for a drink—or to confess. We were greeted by an overwhelming crowd of Katzman cousins. This is the branch that didn't leave Russia when my grandmother and her brothers did way back at the turn of the 20th century. Following hard Soviet times the descendants of my great aunt moved to Israel in the early1970's and we have been making up for lost time!
The Friday meal was festive as the family just keeps growing. We looked at old and new photos, and caught up on politics. "No," said our (formerly) Russian cousins, "Russia isn't organized enough to rig your election." "Yes," they said, "here in Israel we are also embarrassed of our leader's anti- intellectual pandering." By contrast, conversations comparing child rearing were easy.
We capped off caper day sharing a Shabbat drink with our toes in the sand by our hotel. Remember what I said about it being a late night country? And Fire Island has yet to institute beach bars—let alone ones that serve under the moon at midnight.
The next morning, we had to use the Shabbat elevator which stops on every floor so no one has to worry about "working" on Shabbat by pressing a button. Such a cool work around. So how come no one figured out a timer for the espresso machine? At the Royal Beach hotel, they serve only filtered coffee on Saturday!
It's ok. We had more room for pomegranate juice when we got to Pek'iin—a town where Jews, Druids, Christians and Muslims have coexisted for centuries. We visited the cave where Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai is said to have hidden from the Romans for 13 years, surviving only on the fruit of a nearby carob tree. During that time, he wrote the Zohar, commentaries on Jewish law and mysticism that are the foundational text of the Kabbalah. Now that I saw the genesis of his theorizing I am pretty convinced Rabbi Shimon had to have been tripping during his time exiled amidst the rocks.
I had at least a quasi-mystical experience, but in my case it was in Akko where I ate (for the second time in eight years) at Uri Buri. It's a fish and seafood place where they just keep bringing you new courses until you tell them you're full. My favorite dish was salmon and wasabi ice cream. In addition to the traditional deity, I worship the culinary god and didn't want the delicious dishes to stop. Uri Buri may change their menu policy after we left. I couldn't help myself. We were celebrating that we haven't been living in a cave for a dozen years, and the good news that our dear friends' daughter back in the States had just gotten engaged. Also, that we had survived an insane thrill-a-minute death-defying speedboat ride in the Akko harbor earlier that afternoon. When the women joining our exploit covered their heads I should have understood that they were reciting final prayers. It's a "thing" in Akko to ride a small speed boat over an intentionally whipped up wake that almost dumps you under the nearby vessel that is engaging in the same antics. Oh and you are also meant to take in the awesome waterside views of the ancient city while holding on for dear life.
On Sunday we ended our adventure with even more water. And, as it turns out, drink as well. I guess this was a thematic summer holiday. We continued further north to Rosh Hanikra. The grottos were gorgeous and the cable car down to the sea was a lot more stable than the Akko boat. But the real highlight was meeting the border guard who was from Texas. He did Birthright 15 years ago and made Aliyah. We were overheated wearing shorts. The guard by contrast was dressed in heavy fatigues in the noonday sun, laden with equipment and fulfilling his reserve duty miles away from his wife and kids. So we kept him company for a while and got a great recommendation for lunch in Zichron Yaacov. We stopped at the Tishbi winery and chocolate factory just outside of town, had a fine meal, and we were off to the airport. Interestingly, there's no TSA precheck, and yet you don't have to take off your shoes or show your liquids—the Israelis seem to know everything, whether you tell them or not.
We can't wait to go back for our eighth visit. That's a very lucky number for the Chinese people and I imagine it will be for us as well.

Meet Pace & Kyeli Smith
Last summer, Pace & Kyeli got bitten by the full time RVing bug and jumped head first into the lifestyle.
Inside of a few months they went from never having stepped foot in an RV to selling most of their stuff, acquiring a truck and 5th wheel and hit the road. They already had a life coaching practice that was earning about half their expenses, and aimed to build the business up to support them completely.
In this video interview, which we did at 3 months into their adventure, they talk humorously about some of the challenges they encountered – from trying to find a RV suitable for them and their 15 year old son to each have their space and their first day on the road.
Shortly after we filmed this, they decided to follow their original dream of moving to Portland, OR and sold the truck & RV. They posted their reasonings on their blog, and with their permission we did a live video chat addressing many of the Realities of Full Time RVing.
While full time RVing didn't turn out to be the right choice for them, they have no regrets in having given it a try – and we so appreciate their willingness to share their story. Afterall, isn't life about finding your own unique blend of happiness?

The House of Lords Select Committee Report on AI
Electrification had many consequences: unprecedented opportunities for economic development, new risks of injury and death by electrocution, and debates over models of control, ownership and access, to name just a few. We can expect a similar process as AI technology continues to spread through our societies.
AI is a tool which is already deeply embedded in our lives. The prejudices of the past must not be unwittingly built into automated systems, and such systems must be carefully designed from the beginning. Access to large quantities of data is the factor fuelling the current AI boom.
This House of Lords Select Committee report is the single most comprehensive review of the AI field, gathering evidence from 172 leading experts and concluding with five overarching principles for AI.
- Artificial intelligence should be developed for the common good and benefit of humanity.
- Artificial intelligence should operate on principles of intelligibility and fairness.
- Artificial intelligence should not be used to diminish the data rights or privacy of individuals, families or communities.
- All citizens have the right to be educated to enable them to flourish mentally, emotionally and economically alongside artificial intelligence.
- The autonomous power to hurt, destroy or deceive human beings should never be vested in artificial intelligence.
This is a must read for anyone wanting to stay apace with these rapid advances. Download the report here.

The McLennan Highlanders came from behind to defeat the Blinn Buccaneers 6-3 this afternoon at Bosque River Ballpark. Payton Strambler got the win on the mound for the Highlanders and Daniel Cole picked up the save.
Blinn jumped out to an early lead, scoring two runs in the top of the first inning. Brandon Ashy led off with a single, Hunter Trinidad bunted for a single and Zach Cherry walked to load the bases. Ashy came in to score on a passed ball; and Jake Miller singled to score Trinidad.
McLennan got on the board with one run in the bottom of the fourth as Keaton Milford doubled, advanced to third on a wild pitch and stole home.
The Bucs added a run in the top of the eighth. Gray Rodgers singled, moved to second on a sacrifice bunt by Miller and advanced to third on a wild pitch. Reggie McCalister drew a walk, and Rodgers scored on a sacrifice by Cameron Gibbons.
The Highlanders sealed the win with five runs in the bottom of the eighth. Aidan Shepardson was hit by the pitch, Josh Breaux singled and Milford laid down a bunt to load the bases. Shepardson came in to score on a sacrifice fly by Thomas Santos, and Griffin Paxton drew a walk. Chase Sortor then singled and Blinn's centerfield let it roll all the way to the wall, letting Breaux, Milford, Paxton and Sortor all score.
"I thought that our pitchers all day long threw the ball very well. We sent six different pitchers out there and to strike out 18 batters is outstanding," head coach Mitch Thompson said. "Our stuff was good on the mound. Every one of the guys threw well and that's a good sign for things to come from us on the mound."
"Offensively, we hit some balls hard but we had some poor at-bats at times where we could've scored runs, and missed a few opportunities early in the ballgame. Thankfully we put some at-bats all together in the eighth inning and were able to score five runs to take the win," Thompson said. "It was good win overall and now we have to get ready to start conference Wednesday."
McLennan begins conference play Wednesday with a noon doubleheader at Hill.

Nielsen Adding VOD in 2006
Nielsen told clients Tuesday it will start measuring VOD viewing beginning second quarter 2006.
The phased-in approach will begin by rating "recently aired television programs," i.e. those watched within seven days of their airing on "regular, linear television."
By the fourth quarter 2006, Nielsen will start rating "library product," which it defines as theatrical movies, PPV events, and older TV shows."
To expand its ratings to VOD time-shifted programming, Nielsen will have to expand its use of active/passive meters, which are already employed in its metered markets to measure other time shifted viewing.
Phase one essentially insures that clients are getting credit for time-shifted viewing of their current programming.
Initially, VOD viewing will be combined with other playback ratings, such as from a DVR. But beginning in fourth-quarter 2006, the VOD number can be broken out, though that will require cable MSO's, TV networks and stations to cooperate to make sure that a VOD "flag" is inserted in order to "isolate" the VOD viewing.
for its part, Nielsen pledges to have the technology in place to recognize that flag.
Saying it realizes most VOD is not recently aired regular TV, phase three, also beginning in fourth quarter 2006, means Nielsen will start measuring library product--like HBO movies--which will require embedding a code in each show, since it will lack the Nielsen codes on already-aired fare.
In February, Nielsen promised to get back to clients within 90 days about their plans for
including VOD viewing in its local and national samples, responding to client requests for measurement of new TV delivery and viewing systems.

The floor/area around my humidifier is getting really wet.
Try using a hygrometer with an ultrasonic humidifier to help monitor humidity levels in your home. Moisture collecting around the humidifier is usually a good indicator that there's too much moisture in the air.
Why is there white dust?
With an ultrasonic humidifier, a built-in nebulizer vibrates the water at ultrasonic frequency which causes the water droplets to break into a fine, cool mist that you can see. In hard water areas, we recommend using demineralization cartridges with your ultrasonic humidifier to capture minerals in the water and to help reduce white dust on surfaces.

Literally! I got a nerve block on Tuesday. Hehe, wasn't that a funny title? I'm so witty.
Anyways. Yeah, I got a Stellate Ganglion Nerve Block placed on Tuesday morning. And the results are in: they missed, it didn't work, mah face still hurts. Total bummer, I know! But, at least nothing went wrong, and I haven't suffered any dreadful side effects. So, it could have gone better, and it could have gone worse. It's a draw, and I'll take that over things getting worse, any day!
The plan was to go into my neck and inject some meds to help cool off the nerve area that we suspect of causing my chronic facial pain.
quick background info: since january of 2011, i've been suffering what is being Dx'ed as "atypical facial pain casue by peripheral neuralgia." they at first thought that i had "trigeminal neuralgia," but that was ruled out. my docs believe that an acute exacerbation of the blood disease i have (porphyria) caused this nerve issue to happen – the blood disease, when exacerbated, can cause all kinds of nerve pain and damage. doctors have been trying to find the source and treat my nerve pain all year long, and so far we've only come up with band-aids. the nerve block this week was my first attempt at using a physical intervention directly into the area like that. i've also done rounds and rounds of trigger point injections to try and treat the area in a referred way, as well as taking oodles of meds.
The plan was really solid, and I had been so very hopeful. I had so many people rooting for me and my doctor, praying for us and the procedure.
The procedure itself was rather unpleasant. It hurt a little more than I had been expecting, and just because of old experiences back when I had cancer, I don't appreciate people rooting around in my neck with long needles (when I had cancer, I had this core biopsy of a lymph node in my neck go terribly awry, ugh). So yeah, not the most pleasant way to spend a Wednesday morning, but it was manageable.
I did get about ten minutes of sweet relief, during which I cried happy tears and referred to my face as "blissfully painless." And then… IT CAME BACK. The pain started in my ear, again, and just spread out.
Don't worry though! We have more plans. There are different kind of nerve blocks to try, and we can repeat this very one too. There's a chance the doctor missed the location by just a smidge. Or maybe, the inflammation/aggravation is so intense, it's going to take a LOT of blocks to get in there and hose out this fire. I'm not sure.
Bad news: My face still hurts!
Good news: there are more things to try, hopefully a solution will be found and I'm still optimistic!
For the past couple days my neck has been kinda stiff and tender, especially where they poked me. I woke up today feeling pretty much back to usual though, which is nice.
Yes, it's back to the drawing board. But I'm confident we'll find something that will work soon. It's all a process of trial and error, and I'm okay with that. Thanks for all the well wishes and support, I'll post as things play out and as I find out more info myself!

Turning 50 for anybody is a milestone in itself. It marks the start of a very important chapter in life. By this time, your children have grown up and they're living their own lives out of the house now. You're also probably going to note a few more physical changes in your body.
More often than not, people do start to feel different when they hit the five-o. However, it doesn't mean that the changes have to be bad or spell disaster for how you can live your life.
Being 50 means you're an individual who has a lot of experience. You're aware of what you like and what you don't like. However, when you reach the half century milestone, it does not mean your life is ending there. If you don't want to be one of those people who approach retirement, there are 3 ways to stay fit in your fifties.
Staying Physically Fit
If you're of the opinion that once you cross the 50-year threshold, you can no longer be physically active, you're wrong. One very common problem among people who cross the age of 50 is the prevalence of cardiovascular disease. That's something which can be avoided or delayed by staying physically fit.
At 50 and over, you should consider easing your body into physical activities. Join a gym. There are plenty of gyms out there that accommodate persons in this age range. In addition to joining a gym, walk actively on a routine basis, and adopt other exercises.
It happens to most of us that we've been exercising in a certain way for a very long time and we want to stick to that regimen. However, as you grow older, your body experiences physical change. It's nothing to worry about. You should just consider changing your exercise routine. Mix things up and try to find what suits you and your body better.
Healthy Diet
Gone are the days where you can eat anything you want and get away with it. To be honest, those days should never even have been there. What you eat really affects your general well being, and it is especially the case after you cross 50. Increased risks of cardiovascular disease, hypertension and diabetes are things which will be there as you grow older.
What you can do is get your eating habits right. Improve your diet and limit processed foods and fast foods in your diet. Eat more whole foods and stay hydrated. This way you can keep a better track of what your body is consuming so you can regulate what you need to add and what you need to decrease from your diet.
Keep Your Brain Engaged
With advancing age, cognitive recognition/knowledgeable skills tend to slow down. What can you do to bring it back up to speed? Read books and read plenty of them. Books tend to keep a person's imagination running and the brain very active. Just like the body, your brain also needs exercise. Reading is one very good way to go about keeping your brain active. Nearing retirement, it will give you a good start to the beginning of an amazing aging life.
Use the free time to learn new activities. Start playing chess, start painting and do puzzles.
Crossing the 50 year milestone is not the end of your life. Rather, it is the beginning of a wonderful new chapter with possibilities which only you can limit. Make the most of the upcoming best years of your life.

Remember the Health Power motto: Knowledge + Action = Power!

Ten Silicon Prairie startups to watch in 2013
Eyes were on the Silicon Prairie in 2012 as the startup community in and around Kansas City, Omaha and Des Moines earned attention from the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Fast Company and other outlets.

Peter Meng (above), the founder of AdFreeq, recently participated in a St. Louis accelerator.
Eyes were on the Silicon Prairie in 2012 as the startup community in and around Kansas City, Omaha and Des Moines earned attention from the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Fast Company and other outlets. Startups like Dwolla, MindMixer and Hudl were mentioned in many of those stories, as their milestones have earned them a place in the public eye. But who will be the Silicon Prairie startups in those same stories in 2013?
For the second year in the row, I've put together a list of 10 startups to watch as they work to earn attention and, more importantly, traction. My reasons for choosing these startups range from the experienced entrepreneurs founding them to noteworthy investors backing them to the interesting, potentially disruptive products they offer.

Montessorium (Sioux Falls, S.D.) – After a husband-and-wife team released an educational app in 2010, the duo went on to release three more and, in the last year, added two employees to its team.

"Here is Edward Bear coming downstairs now, bump, bump, bump on the back of his head behind Christopher Robin. It is, as far as he knows, the only way of coming down stairs, but sometimes he feels that there really is another way, if only he could stop bumping for a moment and think of it." —A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh.
Are you falling into passive mediocrity at work or in your life? I know this may sound simple but you need to stop and contemplate exactly what you want and make a plan so that you will no longer sleepwalk through your days.
What humans have accomplished came as a result of identifying problems, finding solutions, discovering that those solutions created problems, and then finding ways to solve the new problems which boils down to creating a plan and taking action.
We know in our business processes that any potentially effective problem-solving process involves recognizing the problem, defining the outcome (goal), and planning what to do about it. For our own goals it is no different – It also requires that we develop an understanding of how we block ourselves from achieving our goals and how to get unblocked. It also includes the desire to change, getting involved in the process of change, and restrictions. In other words you stick to activities that lead to your goal. J. Paul Getty said: "The individual who wants to reach the top in business must appreciate the might and force of habit. He must be quick to break those habits that can break him–and hasten to adopt those practices that will become the habits that help him achieve the success he desires."
Why is it then that so few set goals and maintain them (yet those few are the ones that achieve sustainable success). Much of it is because we allow day-to-day frustrations to rule our way of being. In Swift's Gulliver's Travels, Gulliver woke up one morning and found himself tied to the ground by thousands of small threads attached the night before by tiny people called Lilliputians. The story of Gulliver's encounter with the Lilliputians suggests a universal human experience. Many of us at times feel like Gulliver— bound by restraints and frustrations. While no one "thread" can tie us down, collectively they can.
And while major life frustrations, such as the loss of a valued relationship, can prove especially frustrating, research has shown that the little frustrations of life, such as being stuck in traffic or missing the train, can accumulate and affect our physical as well as our emotional well-being.
Goals help you overcome these daily frustrations, they give structure and organized direction to your life. Just identifying two or three important results in the areas of your life you wish to accomplish provides you with a purpose and sense of direction.
Without purpose our minds are dulled by the 'ordinariness' of our days. A mind without inspiration or purpose falls into accepting a mediocre, unsatisfied life which is also one of the biggest contributors of frustration with yourself and those around you – are you really a good boss, partner, parent, friend when the little things frustrate you?
Achieving small steps in your purpose (or life goals) increases happiness, well being, satisfaction and self-confidence, which motivates you to do more and makes you more enjoyable to be around.
People are biologically hard-wired to feel happier when they recognize they have some sense of control and choice over their lives, which is what setting goals and taking action gives them. They change from feeling like victims of life's circumstances, or at best passive bystanders, into someone who knows they can make a difference.
"You can't just sit there and wait for people to give you that golden dream; you've got to get out there and make it happen for yourself." —Diana Ross

Hi Jehpin,
I recieved the viola today. The look is good. It sounds great. What I really love is the bow. Its beautiful and plays wonderfully. In the next couple of weeks, I may be placing an order for bows, because I have several students that could use good bows like these. I Just have to discuss that with the students parents.
Have you considered making the Vecchio or Balokovic in a viola?? I would purchase that one too if one were to be made :)
Thank you !! :)

HP/COMPAQ: ACCC gives merger the go-ahead
The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) Wednesday announced it will not intervene with the proposed merger of Hewlett-Packard and Compaq.
The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) Wednesday announced it will not intervene with the proposed merger of Hewlett-Packard and Compaq.
When the new privacy laws come into effect in six weeks, companies will be forced to take a range of measures to ensure their data is secure. It's not too late for channel players to get in on the act by providing a totally secure solution
Everyone remembers the Y2K bug issue. How could we not -- it was pasted on the front pages of every IT and business magazine for months. Ensuring compliance was something many companies focused on for years. It was a serious business issue for the most part, which posed a security threat to organisations and was treated with a deserved level of importance. On December 21 this year, a business issue on the scale of the Y2K bug will take effect, the beefed-up Privacy Amendment (Private Sector) Act 2000.
The ACCC has ordered Reckon to offer free software upgrades and refunds to more than 1750 of its customers after finding the Quicken software company guilty of misleading or deceptive conduct.
Communications service provider Dingo Blue has entered into a spate of staff cutbacks with more than 25 employees given notice earlier today, according to a former staff member.
The proposed merger of Hewlett-Packard and Compaq announced Tuesday will arguably cement Carly Fiorina's position as the most powerful woman in IT.
Gartner has hit out at Microsoft saying there is no good reason to update to Windows XP, Microsoft's new operating system scheduled for release on 25 October.
Martin Paech has resigned from his position of CEO at ISP dingo blue, according to unconfirmed reports.
Business intelligence vendor Business Objects, has appointed a new channel manager and will be releasing a new partner program in September this year, in an effort to continue its strong revenue growth in the Australian region.
Software piracy in Australia has risen to 33 per cent, up 1 per cent from last year, according to the Business Software Association of Australia.
The dollar dives again! A new low for the dollar! How low can we go? Sound familiar? These sorts of headlines have become commonplace lately as the Aussie dollar continues to reach new lows. And with many in the channel already struggling to stay afloat in a highly competitive market, the current currency freefall has amplified the woes of many trying to eke out a profit.
There can be no doubt the Internet has significantly altered the way distributors do business and view their future opportunities. Nonetheless, many channel players would argue that the full capabilities of the Internet are not being utilised and that most distributors are limiting its use to advertising and product information, rather than offering a full complement of B2B capabilities.
The hip, happening world of online buying has been making the headlines recently. But it hasn't all been good news, with some e-tailers finding they are struggling to survive following last year's tech stock shakeout. Are these isolated cases or is it an indication of problems with the e-tailing model?
With a lack of support and solutions running dry, the shortage of skilled personnel in the IT industry looks like it's only going to get worse before it gets better.
Companies are working their employees too hard. Staff are coming into the office early, staying back late, and working on weekends. The working week has risen to more than 50 hours. Employees are not taking their annual leave for fear of losing their jobs or not getting the next promotion.

Snails are un welcomed guests in your fish tank. While they help to clean up, algae, uneaten food, waste, and debris, their welcome is always limited. A few snails can have positive benefits. However, when they grow in number, they become a real problem. Since they eat, breathe, and excrete waste just like other animals, they dirty up the water in no time and make it unhealthy for your fish.
Common Types of Snails
The snails acting as fish tank pests come in three main types. Snails are simply pets and can be easily added while decorating the fish tank. Here are the main three snails common in most fish tanks.
- Pond Snails: Tadpoles are the main types of snails. They are common in most fish tanks. These snails breed fast. They are simply small and have rounded shells. They are of the same size as pea and lay their eggs on tank decorations, plants or tank glass.
- Trumpet snails: These snails are very hard to spot. They are approximately an inch in length and include cone-like spiral shells. They don't lay eggs and are normally hidden beneath the gravel all day.
- Ramshorn snails: These snails have spiral-shaped, tall shells. They normally lay eggs in clutches. The only good thing about these snails is that they are quite attractive and don't breed as rapidly as others.
How to Control Snails in Your Fish Tank
For you to have full control over the snails in your fish tank here are some important things to do.
- Do not overfeed the fish: The usage guidelines on most food containers for fish require you to feed the fish a number of times each day. The more the times you feed the fish, the higher the chances are of overfeeding them, which can have negative effects on their health. It's often recommended you feed your fish a maximum of two times a day. This food often sits on the rocks, filter or tank bottom where the snails can easily access them. The more food the snails eat, the quicker they will multiply, and the more difficult it will be to manage them.
- Keep the Algae Level low: The lower the number of algae in the tank, the better. Excess algae will mess up the fish tank and even hurt the fish. Since algae serve as food for snails, they enable them to thrive better which can have negative effects on the fish. You can keep the algae levels low by not over feeding the fish, controlling the light, and scraping it out of the glass.
- Keep changing the water regularly. Keeping the water clean is one of the best ways to maintain a healthy fish tank. The buildup of chemicals and dirt from rotting plants, fish waste, and decaying food often has serious effects on the fish health. By making sure you change the water in your fish tank regularly, you will help avoid such issues. This will end up boosting the health and lifespan of your fish pets.
- Remove waste and debris regularly. There are tons of great water changing devices offered on sale today. Most of these systems are super-easy to use and helps make the process of cleaning a whole lot easier. They come in the form of siphon tubes that includes a scoop end. You have to dig the scoop end into the gravel to aid in the sucking of the debris and dirt. This will also help to eradicate snails and small insects inside the tank.
Controlling the number of snails in your fish tank is one of the best ways to help keep your fish healthy. Snails are good when they are in small numbers; so rather than removing all the snails in your fish tank, it's recommended you limit the number. The above points are some of the best methods you can employ to help control the number of snails in your aquatics world. Don't just employ these tricks blindly. You have to be smart if you are to get quality results. Make sure you get your facts right by visiting this site for more info.

EMMA: It was a moment that had a lot
of Aussie cricket fans worried. During the second Ashes Test
between Australia and England, Steve Smith fell to the ground
after being struck in the neck. COMMENTATOR: He can't
possibly stay on after that. It's very overwhelming watching
someone get hit in the face in that position.
It was kind of scary, in a way. It just happened, like, so fast, and then he was just on the ground. I felt a bit worried for him because it looked like the ball
was going really fast, and it probably would've hurt a lot. After leaving the field, Smith had to pass a series of tests before he was allowed
to bat again. But the next day he felt worse and he was pulled out of the match
because of concussion. Concussion is an injury
that involves the brain. That super-important organ floats around a nice protective fluid
inside our skull. But if our head
were to take a big hit, say, from falling to the ground
or a cricket ball, well, that could cause
the brain to bump around and bruise. Now, not every head-butt
gives you a concussion. But it is something
you should take seriously. That's why experts are trained
to look for concussion clues. So, Andrew, you are a sports doctor and you see a lot of concussions. So, how can you tell
if someone actually has one? The first thing you might
think about is headache. You can also get dizzy, nauseous. Sometimes you have blurry vision. Often you just don't feel right. You might just feel
like your head's in a bit of a fog. But there's more to it than that. While most people with concussion
get those symptoms as soon as they're hurt, sometimes they can take a while
to become obvious, which might be what happened
with Steve Smith. I'd have to say, though,
he didn't play that well when he came back.
Everyone was saying that, so he may have
actually had some signs even though he might have passed
the test. Concussion is an injury we hear
a lot about in sport – from AFL and Rugby League
to basketball and cricket. In the last few years,
there's been a big change in the way players
with concussions are treated. In the AFL,
new rules have been introduced so players have to come off
and pass some tests before they're allowed back on. They'll check if the player knows
where they are, what their team is called, and if they can remember
things they're told. If they don't pass, well,
they spend the rest of the game on the sidelines and can sit out
the next week as well. COMMENTATOR: With that concussion
that he… The same goes for junior sport. And if a kid gets a concussion, well,
they could miss out on school too. Concussions are taken really
seriously when they happen to kids, because brain injuries
when you're young can cause big problems later in life. Even when they're given
the all-clear, young sports people shouldn't
do anything for a couple of weeks that could risk
another knock to the head. Experts have praised Steve Smith
and the team doctors for taking extra time out
after his concussion, even though it meant missing
the third Test. They say that was the right call and it sends a good message to kids that while playing sport is great, there's nothing more important than keeping that big squishy thing
in your skull nice and healthy.

Dent Professional Upstate
San Diego's most experienced cellular paintless dent removal and plastic bumper repair. Limiting elements for a successful restore using PDR embrace the flexibility of the paint (most of at present's refined automotive paint finishes permit for successful PDR) and the extent to which the steel has been stretched by the damage, which relies on the thickness of the metallic, the curvature or flatness the place the harm occurred and the depth of the affect.
Our specialists remove small dents through the use of a way that 'massages' the dents out of the broken space, restoring the panel in order that it seems nearly as good as new. Paintless dent repair involves carefully kneading minor dents and dings without adding or eradicating any paint from the car. Quick Turnaround Time – Paintless Dent Restore (PDR) by Dent Wizard is a similar-day service, making it simpler to give attention to more essential things.
So for plastic bumpers, even in case you try to take off the bumper, it would nonetheless be difficult to push out the dent due to how stiff the plastic is. Remedy this difficulty by boiling some water in a pot and throwing it on the dent. Typically speaking, the shallower the dent, the larger the probability of paintless dent restore being a suitable possibility. Glue and specially designed tabs could also be used to drag out the dents from the skin of the panel.
Quality technicians can mix excessive spots to match the texture of the paint known as orange peel. The cost of Paintless Dent Removal can be as much as 50 % less than standard repairs. Paintless dent removing was invented around the Nineteen Thirties at car meeting plants, 2 and has been popularized a lot later. Paintless Dent Removal is most appropriate as a car dent repair approach for smaller dings and panel dents where the paint has not damaged, resembling parking and trolley dents, and stone dents.
Dents are no match for the technicians at Service King. Restoring dents on this method is the quickest method of dent removal and restore, as it eliminates the need for filling and portray. For those who're trying a paintless dent elimination your self, ordering the tools you want on-line is a good way to save cash. Paintless Dent Removing does not involve any sanding, body fillers, or portray.
