Find a mortgage in the UK can be quite difficult, but when it comes to finding one in another country can be very discouraging to many domestic and foreign suppliers all competing. Keep in mind that you need to look the supply of mortgages before hiring one. With this article we save you time and money.
Look for different mortgage options online is one of the first steps, but should not be the only one.
Europahus brings you in this article the 5 basic types of varieties available for your mortgage:
Depending on the country in which you are resident, some international lenders will offer international mortgage so you can buy abroad. For example, Lloyds TSB in the UK offer British residents who own a house in the UK a plan designed specifically for the purchase of real estate in Spain.
As Spain is geared largely to foreign buyer it is often possible to obtain funding locally in Spain especially if you approach one of the largest international banks.
It is very important to be sure they understand the terms and conditions of the loan and local payment methods, as well as testing and comparing interest rates with those of your home country.
Some people have been deceived with what looked good deals on mortgages with a low price at first, only to find that after some many months the monthly payment suddenly doubled.
If you are already living in Spain and wants to buy in Spain or are thinking of buying a house in the UK for any reason, it can be very difficult to obtain a mortgage.
If you had a strong credit history before expatriation and is now in receipt of income to support your mortgage application there are a number of lenders who are interested in attracting these customers
Usually, you should be able to get a mortgage up to 85% of the value of the property, always showing that it is solvent. This can be done by demonstrating the economic capacity.
This is, of course, the simplest and most popular method currently used for the purchase of holiday homes abroad for many buyers. In the UK, especially, where many people have accumulated substantial savings and are now releasing this "extra money" to buy property in Spain.
If you consider that this method has to accept that the additional amount is added to your mortgage will incur interest, it must be repaid within or at the end of the term of your mortgage and the entire loan is secured on your main property.
You may need to think about buying property off plan as this can give you the option to pay your home through a series of installments or partial payments that can save a good sum of money while housing is built.
After paying the deposit to secure housing, dates, deadlines and amounts will be written in your contract. Clearly, this method is particularly suitable for those with a high level of disposable income.
Once you have determined the most appropriate to meet their needs and circumstances can begin your search for a lender where appropriate method. Consider searching the Internet, using forums expatriates and international property sites. In this choice of banks and lenders it is advisable to listen to personal recommendations from friends, family and colleagues who have already bought property in Spain.

Arabic and contact-induced language change
Arabic and contact-induced language change is a two-year project, running from 2017 to 2019. It is led by Dr Christopher Lucas, with Hanadi Ismail as Postdoctoral Research Assistant, and made possible by a £250,000 Leadership Fellows grant from the UK Arts and Humanities Research Council.
The project seeks to improve our understanding of how and why languages tend to change when they come into contact, with a particular focus on Arabic and the many languages it has influenced and been influenced by in its more than 1500 years of written and spoken history.
The project has three strands:
First, there is a theoretical strand, in which the aim is to construct a general model of the cognitive processes at work in the minds of bilingual individuals that cause them to introduce changes into one or both of their languages, extending previous work on contact between languages that are mutually unintelligible to monolingual speakers of each to changes that result from contact between related dialects.
The second strand of the project involves collaboration with Dr Stefano Manfredi (SeDyL-CNRS) to edit a handbook of Arabic and contact-induced change, with a range of chapters contributed by leading experts, giving accessible summaries of topics including: contact-induced change in the Arabic dialects of various regions, such as Morocco, Malta and Cyprus; the Pidgin and Creole varieties of Arabic spoken in Uganda, South Sudan, the Arabian Gulf and elsewhere; Arabic influences on languages such as Aramaic, Swahili and Somali; and the effects of contact between different Arabic dialects. This handbook will be published by Language Science Press, an open access publisher, so it will be freely available for anyone to read online.
The third strand of the project aims at raising awareness of the importance of language and dialect contact for the practice of 'LADO' (language analysis for the determination of origin) in asylum claims by Arabic-speaking individuals in the UK. LADO is a tool used by some governments to aid in decisions on whether asylum claims are genuine. In this process, claimants are interviewed, and their speech in this interview is examined to see whether it exhibits the known features of the dialect of their stated region of origin. But widely agreed standards of best practice in this process have yet to be adopted. A key assumption of the current project, which a number of LADO practitioners appear not to share, is that the speech of emigrant Arabic speakers will always be affected at a given time by the other languages and other Arabic dialects they are exposed to daily, as well as by the speech of their interviewer. The project aims to provide empirical support for this assumption by collecting and publishing data on the speech of Arabic speakers resident in London and the kinds of dialect mixing that occurs in this diasporic context.
In the UK, LADO may also be used at the appeal stage of an asylum claim, whereby an independent expert is contracted to re-examine the claimant's speech and produce an alternative analysis where appropriate. Here there is a problem in that experts are producing their reports in virtual isolation, without common standards of best practice, while solicitors acting for claimants seem to be contacting potential experts on a haphazard, word-of-mouth basis. The current project intends to address this problem through consultative workshops with a range of stakeholders in Arabic-based LADO, as well as by producing and maintaining an online register of LADO-active Arabic linguists for solicitors to contact.

The January inflation rate, measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI), has further dropped to 15.13 per cent from 15.37 percent recorded in December last year, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) said on Wednesday in Abuja.
The CPI report, which measures inflation, started the year 2018 increasing by 15.13 per cent (year-on-year) in January. According to the bureau, this is 0.24 per cent points lower than the rate recorded in December (15.37 percent).

The sexually transmitted disease syphilis is a bacterial infection. Left untreated, it can cause heart and brain damage, even death. Pregnant women can infect their unborn babies. This can lead to deformities or even death.
People don't talk as much about syphilis today as they did in the past. But people still become infected with syphilis, and it can cause very serious problems.
Syphilis progresses in stages. The signs and symptoms in each stage may be so mild that you do not notice them. During the first stage, there is often a painless sore on the sex organs, anus, or mouth. The sore goes away in 3 to 6 weeks. During the next stage, you may develop a rash or flu-like symptoms. These also go away. But the infection is still there. You may have no other signs until serious problems develop, often years or even decades later.
Syphilis is treated with antibiotics. During treatment, it is important not to have sex, or you may infect someone else. And be sure to return for follow-up visits. Your partner should also be checked for the disease.
As with all STDs, knowing your partner's sexual history is a big step toward preventing syphilis. Know the signs and symptoms of the infection. And use latex condoms to reduce your risk.
Symptoms of syphilis stages
Stage 1: A painless sore on the mouth or sex organs
Stage 2: A rash, fever, sore throat, muscle aches, fatigue, and other flu-like symptoms
Stage 3: Severe diseases such as paralysis, mental deterioration, damage to internal organs, blindness, or death

Dissipative systems generating any structurally stable chaos
Reaction-diffusion and coupled oscillator systems are considered. They possess inertial manifolds and, moreover, in a sense, their inertial dynamics can be "controlled" by some system parameters $\mathcal P$: the inertial dynamics can be specified to within an arbitrarily small error by adjusting of $\mathcal P$. Due to the classical persistence hyperbolic set theorem, this property of their inertial forms yields that any hyperbolic local attractors and invariant sets can be embedded into the global attractors of these systems. The method of the proof is based on recent results from the neural network theory and the ideas connected with the dynamics of localized modes in singular perturbed systems. This approach can be considered as a development of the method of the realization of vector fields pioneering by P. Poláčik and has a physical interpretation. It is shown, in particular, that the fundamental models of neural network type (the Hopfield systems) can generate any structurally stable (persistent) large-time behaviour.

Why settle for an ordinary Valentine's Day box when you can turn that box into something that allows you to run a small business?
We're not sure if that's what two young Zimmer Home children had in mind. Yet these two, who often don't get along with each other, suddenly found themselves with a common vision. They put their heads together and came up with a candy dispensing cardboard creation.
Their Home Parent Dad, Cody Cox, explains, "A few days ago, these two started envisioning a candy dispensing machine that they could make out of cardboard. They worked on it almost entirely on their own. It was the coolest engineered cardboard creation I've ever seen. After they created it, they decided they could turn it into a small business.
"They sold out their entire candy supply at The Hubbell Home. They do need to make some adjustments to their cost and profit margins, though. We'll have to raise the price a bit or help them buy in bulk, because they used their allowance to buy and fill it with $6.00 worth of candy…and made a total of $4.00 selling the candy.
"It was really fun watching them working on that project together."
Whether or not they succeed as candy sales people or inventors, it's exciting to see children's ingenuity at work. It's your support that allows our children the opportunity to play, dream and be imaginative!Related Stories View All

I guess looking at my face while editing really made me self-conscious about the fact that my teeth aren't really the whitest. So when I was asked to test and review the Smile Brilliant at home teeth whitening system, I was super excited to have this chance.

Getting there: Presentation >> Historic background
Historic background
The Brazilian Symposium on Medicinal Chemistry (BrazMedChem) is an international scientific event, which has the main objective of joining Brazilian Medicinal Chemists to the state-of-the-art of the discovery/development of new drugs.
Since the establishment of the Brazilian Symposium on Medicinal Chemistry in 2001 (BrazMedChem2001) under the coordination of Prof. Dr. Carlos Montanari, it has been prone to achieve understanding and gather true information that leads to knowledge.
The second BrazMedChem was held in Rio de Janeiro city, being Prof. Dr. Jose Daniel Figueroa Villar the chair of the event. During this meeting, a set of outstanding researchers in the field was established as a BrazMedChem consulting group with the aim of improving the medicinal chemistry in Brazil.
In 2006, the BrazMedChem was held in Aguas de Sao Pedro-SP, under the coordination of Prof. Dr. Glaucius Oliva. This successful event had a set of renowned international researchers as invited speakers.
BrazMedChem2008 (Porto de Galinhas-PE) had the highest number of participants in the history of the symposium. Prof. Dr. Ivan da Rocha Pitta was the chair of this event that counted with a massive number of researchers from the northeastern region.
A decade of existence was celebrated during the 2010 edition of the meeting in Ouro Preto-MG. Once again, Prof. Dr. Carlos A. Montanari was the chair of the event, which is now one of the most important symposiums in the entire Latin America. The main objectives that led to the birth of this scientific meeting were achieved and reviewed at that time. We wanted to innovate again by offering the first joint DNDi (Drugs for Neglected Diseases)/BrazMedChem Lead Optimization Workshop.
The BrazMedChem2012 was held by the first time in the Southern area, being coordinated by Prof. Dr. Vera Lucia Eifler Lima. This event was another successful case in which a huge number of researchers of this region attended the meeting.

| 12.5°C Dublin
Beyond the trauma unit and the screen of green trees, the row rages on. But then as far as Kodjovi Obilale, who is hooked up to a ventilation machine, is concerned, it might be happening on another planet.
He has the simple imperative to live -- and perhaps one day discover with some wonderment how it was he became nothing less than a symbol of both the anguish and the hope of a continent which sees sport not as a problem but deliverance.
First there is the anguish -- and the anger. South African President Jacob Zuma has joined the argument, denouncing the idea that there is a link between the terrorist outrage 1,300 miles away in Angola and fears for the safety of next summer's World Cup.
The nation's police commissioner, Bheki Cele, is also indignant, along with Danny Jordaan of the South African Football Association. They are saying that their situation is being damned without proper analysis, that although they have crime at worrying levels, they do not have collective anarchy or terrorism. They have problems, certainly, but not uniquely and not insurmountably -- and they point to a largely trouble-free record when hosting front-line sports events.
Yet despite what many feel, the unfair reach of the connection between these two nations and the drama of Obilale's fight for survival taking place in Johannesburg, is undoubtedly making a strange fusion of the arguments. And there is emerging a palpable and passionate hope that the stricken goalkeeper will be healed in their own country.
In all of this, at Milpark Hospital, there is only one significant question. No one can change the world and reduce its risks. No one can know where the terrorists will strike next and for whom the ambulance bells will be ringing. What they can do, though, is win the battle they are fighting in one of the 30 trauma berths in a unit well versed in the effects of gunfire. They can save the life of the 25-year-old Obilale, the Togolese reserve goalkeeper who logically but with huge irony was flown to this city notorious for random violence.
The decision was logical because Milpark has a superb reputation. Included in its patient list over the years are Nelson Mandela, Archbishop Desmond Tutu and the President of Zimbabwe, Robert Mugabe. Now it is the unheralded goalkeeper, who was eking a living in the fourth division of France before two bullets entered his back on a country road last week, who is the centre of all the attention.
His visitors this week have included Mandela's former wife, Winnie and various luminaries of the African National Congress and Sports Minister Dr Makhenkesi Stofile.
The visits are more than anything symbolic gestures. Yesterday morning he remained on a ventilator but a spokeswoman, speaking for the team of surgeons who have been ordered by the South African government not to give one-on-one interviews, insisted that this does not mean that progress isn't being made.
"He is stable and reacts to commands but the decision of the doctors is that it is better for him if he remains on the ventilator and is sedated," said the spokeswoman. "We are very hopeful."
Around about the time President Zuma was declaring his faith in South African security, the surgeons were making a practical decision.
It was that whatever of Kodjovi's life they are able to rescue, including the possibility of his one day playing football again, he will be obliged to carry for ever some evidence from the day his life was changed: bullet fragments in his abdominal cavity.
Professor Ken Boffard, one of the surgeons, explained: "We have treated the major injury. There is no point in removing the pieces of the bullet because it will cause more damage as surgeons would have to make a cut to get them out. The bullet is not going to move and he can live with it."
No doubt he would be grateful for that -- just as South Africa, while acknowledging that it has daunting statistics on individual crimes of violence, believes that its ability to mount effective security in the protection of visitors to high-profile sports events should be respected.
President Zuma insists there is no link between Angola and South Africa, no more than Spain or England when they suffered bomb outrages. "South Africa remains 100pc ready to host the Cup," declared the president.
Cele, the police commissioner, also drew a parallel with the outrages in Spain and England -- and also insisted that the security loophole exploited in Angola (by the Togo team going it alone, off the official radar) would not have been available under South African measures.
He said: "When it happened in Angola we noted that the gaps that could have been noticed were closed in South Africa. We are really fine."
Cele also attacked the decision to withdraw the Togo team. "The final instruction was 'you will play, but not under the flag of Togo'. They were disowned. It gives credence to terrorism when officials succumb. I would have loved them to continue. There is a history of sport and terrorism."
The police minister, Nathi Mthethwa, maintained a united front, saying, "It is just unfair to judge South Africa's preparedness to host the world on the fragility of the situation in Angola."
Such certainties, inevitably, seemed rather remote at Milpark Hospital, where the flow of celebrity visitors is now being discouraged against the priority of the watchful, distraction-free care of Obilale.
The last word from inside the trauma team came from Professor Boffard, who said that the patient was stable and generally satisfactory.
He said: "The medical team is satisfied with the progress of Mr Obilale. He will however remain in the trauma intensive care unit until he is fully out of danger."
'Fully out of danger'. It would be an announcement guaranteed a surge of celebration through the antiseptic corridors of a hospital which, according to an official statement of perhaps unconscious irony, is dealing with a once obscure victim of wounds which it does not find 'uncommon'.
Indeed, the celebration would be the kind that was not so long ago reserved for a successful and unbloodied World Cup.
This is, of course, another and rather more complicated story. In the meantime, Kodjovi Obilale has come to represent more than just one man's fight for a clean bill of health. (© Independent News Service

Thomas Williams is the author of the critically acclaimed Viking Britain: An Exploration (2017), and Viking London (2019), both published by William Collins.
He is also the author of The Tale of King Harald (British Museum Press, 2014), a retelling of the saga of Harald 'Hardruler' for children, and co-editor of a volume on beasts in early medieval England and Scandinavia (Boydell & Brewer, 2016).
Thomas is currently writing about the forgotten kingdoms of early medieval Britain and the landscape of warfare in the early Middle Ages.
The Tale of King Harald
"Long ago, in the days when dragons could still be found and fought (or so it is written in the tales of those times), there lived a Viking king. He was fierce and warlike, brave and strong, cunning and cruel. His name was Harald Hard-ruler and that name was feared wherever it was heard. But … Continue reading The Tale of King Harald
Viking Britain
Then the Lord said unto me, out of the north an evil shall break forth upon all the inhabitants of the land… To many, the word 'Viking' brings to mind red scenes of rape and pillage, of marauders from beyond the sea rampaging around the British coastline in the last gloomy centuries before the Norman … Continue reading Viking Britain
Viking London
Viking Age London is like an old wound, seemingly long healed and oft forgotten. But sometimes in the winter, when a cold wind blows from the north, it still nags – an ache that will never go away. Stumbling around corners, feet catch on stitches, pull back the skin of modernity – an ancient street … Continue reading Viking London

If you have the ability to, it's possible to install the windows yourself and conserve money. Then think about whether you would like to get the windows to give decent insulation, be simple to clean or open and close easily. Vinyl windows must be custom ordered, which makes it difficult or impossible to return them. They are one way to make a home look better and save money at the same time. Installing replacement vinyl windows according to Window Replacement Services can be simple if you follow the correct measures.
The absolute most efficient security solutions want to keep an eye on your windows and your doors. People try to find a number of windows and doors, mainly made from wood. For a home or any industrial location, windows and doors play a pivotal role and aid in ensuring appropriate ventilation and a healthful environment. Moreover, now people are able to even secure sophisticated and fashionable French windows and doors comprising PVC from renowned businesses and add a distinctive charm to their residence.
The windows according to Windows and Doors Replacement Company play an excellent function in adorning your house. Since vinyl windows are made to order you aren't likely to have the ability to return them if it doesn't fit to your window opening. They can change the interior and exterior appearance of your home. Just a couple of years ago replacement vinyl windows weren't really thought to be a superior alternative. Actually, vinyl replacement windows with a very low emission rating can be eligible for a federal tax credit when certain requirements are satisfied.
Several sorts of windows can provide lots of further advantages. A great deal of old windows don't have any screens whatsoever, and the folks living without them just opened the windows and permit the bugs arrive in. Based on the organization you get from, custom double glazed windows might be available also.
People appearing to replace their windows can expect to pay thousands for a complete replacement and in the modern economy many just simply can't afford it. Occasionally it can be challenging to say if you require new windows so here are a few signs that tell you will need window repair or residential glass replacement. Also, new windows increase the property's value and in case you ever choose to sell your home, they will provide among the maximum return on investment.
Installing new windows in your house is among the best things that you can do in order to boost the value, and Andersen Windows are a few of the highest quality products you'll be able to get on the market these days. Picking the most appropriate replacement window for your house can be a complex issue.
Where the window will go and the sum of space you have also creates a considerable difference in the style you pick. Whatever options you opt to utilize for your windows and doors, you should also bear in mind the other sorts of alternatives and accessories which are available to you. Individuals can decide to install specially designed French windows and doors composed of uPVC to boost the aesthetics of their house and maximize indoor comfort.

A selection of over 137 + branches Australia wide
Echuca Branch is holding another get-together at Treetops Camp in Victoria, near Cohuna on 19th, 20th and 21st of July 2019.
All Ulysses Club members are welcome to attend. There is virtually no limit to the amount of campers. There's five acres of camping area.
Christmas in July will again be a feature. (No pressies, just maybe dressup for the occasion). Hope to see many members there.
Here's the report from the previous get-together at Treetops, with some photos.
The Echuca Branch of Ulysses Club recently held a campout at Treetops near Cohuna.
Treetops is situated on the banks of the Gunbower Creek. There are fish in the creek, although they are notoriously hard to catch.
Treetops is a very basic scout camp. It has showers and toilets with nice hot water and a huge kitchen stocked with plenty of cutlery and crockery. Fridges and stoves are there, along with stainless steel benches and sinks. The only thing required by campers is accommodation, ie; a caravan, tent, or people can throw a swag down in the building itself. There are 2 fireplaces outside in the grounds, and a large open fireplace in the main building which has a separate room for sleepers.
The town of Cohuna is 10 k's away and has an IGA that can supply everything required.
On the Saturday night we had a 'potluck' tea. Everybody supplied a dish to share. This made a wonderful dinner for all that attended.
I have attached some pics of the site, buildings and the happy campers.
The word was put out to other branches, and a few different branches either came along and camped, or called in for a visit through the weekend. We had Echuca, Central Vic (Bendigo), Geelong, Central Murray (Swan Hill) branches there at various times.
The weather was just right for the weekend which was themed Christmas in July. (Just dress ups, no presents). Everybody seemed to have a good time, the only complaint was that they had to go home. We had about 40 people overall at lunch on Saturday.

When we're camping, we often take a walking tour of the campground, marveling at the distances some campers have traveled to join us here. On our most recent stay we saw motorhomes with plates from Montana and Texas. During our stroll this afternoon, we spotted a beautiful cruiser whose plate made us look twice. I think this one will hold the distance record for the foreseeable future.

We haven't yet taken any long-distance trips with our trailer, especially since gas went up; but we will. What's the farthest you've ever traveled while camping?

Where do you learn to morph big data, cloud-based technology and executive healthcare experience into a revolutionary, entrepreneurial business that empowers insurance companies to process complex medical claims with quality and integrity while reducing costs and risk? EMHL, according to Deborah Watkins, founder and CEO of Care Bridge International. Care Bridge offers data-driven technology based solutions for future medical evaluations, medical reserve setting, underwriting, claim settlements, litigation, Medicare Set Asides and care coordination.
Watkins credits EMHL for providing the space to launch Care Bridge, and the access to leading experts in data-driven decision making, finance and IT to make it happen.
An experienced clinician and insurance executive, Watkins began her EMHL journey as the CEO of a leading Medicare Secondary Payer financial service provider who wanted to hone her business expertise to improve payer performance in a rapidly changing industry. "I searched for three years for an MBA program but none of them met my needs, with a bend toward our changing healthcare environment. I wanted a program designed to leverage my lifetime career in healthcare and commitment to advancing this industry."
Midway through the program, her company was sold. "Moving on from this job was an opportunity to reinvent myself and EMHL was a great place to do it. People apply to this program because they're high achievers. A striking number of students in my cohort assumed new positions and advanced their careers during the program."
According to Watkins, "The inspiration for Care Bridge evolved during my studies, but the night a guest lecturer spoke on funding and finance, I knew Care Bridge could become a reality. Because of the small size of the class, I was able to sit down with this financial expert, professors and cohort members and brainstorm the options for funding my own project."
From that point on, Watkins dedicated her EMHL experience to building a business plan for Care Bridge. "Originally my Critical Challenge Project (CCP) centered on the development of a new product for the dual eligibility market for my old company. In the course of my research at Brown, I discovered that Life Care Planners have been using a methodology to forecast payments that had never been validated. Using data-driven business models learned during my work at EMHL, I modified my CCP to develop data intelligence- and technology-based solutions to improve payer performance. I incorporated Care Bridge right after graduating."
Fast-forward to today, Care Bridge celebrated its two year anniversary and continues to grow rapidly. "I couldn't have done it without EMHL," said Watkins. "The high-touch access EMHL offered to experts – both professors and cohort members – in data driven decision-making, finance, and IT was absolutely invaluable to my current business success."
Proof of this success: Care Bridge recently announced its selection for the InsurTech StartUp Accelerator program. As part of this recognition, Care Bridge will present in San Francisco at the upcoming InsurTech Silicon Valley 2017 Summit.
We encourage you to visit Care Bridge International to learn more about this exciting company.

text: Travel Think you know how many countries there are in the world? Think again. Matt Hershberger Nov 11, 2013 One of the perennial debates I've had with frequent travelers is over how to count the total number of countries visited. Do you count layovers? What about driving or riding a train through a country or state without getting out? Do you have to eat a meal there? Spend a night there? Have at least one interaction with a local in that place? Then you have more difficult, political questions: What counts as a country? I personally count Tibet, Hong Kong, Puerto Rico, and Scotland as separate countries on my list, but that might be because I measure my self-worth in souvenir flagownership. CGP Grey, YouTube's resident map extraordinaire, has tried to answer the question, "How many countries are there?" and has come up with several answers. Taiwan, for example, is not considered a separate country by a few important entities (like, ahem, the Communist Party of China), nor is Kosovo, Palestine, or Somaliland. But their people see them as separate, and they are all autonomously governed, to varying degrees. As CGP Grey says, "Ultimately, what makes a country a country is that other countries think that country is a country." So we still don't have a definitive answer. What criteria do you use? What did you think of this article? Meh Good Awesome Bookmark Posted In Travel

Dealing with packet networking complexity? It's time to evolutionize.
By Scott McFeely – As I travel around the world meeting with our customers, I hear time and time again about their continued struggles building and maintaining packet networks.
Today's TDM and Packet (Ethernet/IP/MPLS) networks are too operationally complex, making them costly to operate, which results in a slower time-to-market and growing inflexibility to successfully address changing customer demands. Networks still lack the automation and agility to rapidly deploy new services.
If operators are to succeed, they need to make changes – now. The traditional approach to building packet networks, from access to metro, just isn't up to the task.
At Ciena, we believe that the future belongs to the adaptive – those who do more than just recognize the need to modernize, but who see the need to actively "evolutionize" their packet networks toward a more virtual, modular, and automated design. more>

General Data Protection Regulation
ValueMentor has experience in developing & implementing privacy programs that lead to GDPR compliance. We understand that aligning technology with governance, risk and compliance (GRC) is the best approach towards achieving GDPR objectives. Our ADAPT methodology helps organizations achieve GDPR compliance ahead of the compliance dates. Irrespective of your state of current GDPR compliance or efforts, our team can help you continue the GDPR journey without starting over from the beginning.
Why GDPR
GDPR is the most authoritative privacy regulation that affects global organizations. It makes the organizations' entities responsible for privacy and security of personal information. The regulation focuses on the concept of individual rights to be upheld while processing personal data. A maximum fine of 4% of global turnover is an important consideration as it directly impacts organizational profitability. Associated reputation impact and loss in shareholder value would increase the residual risk that organizations need to manage.

Identification, Data Mapping & Data Flow Analysis
- What data you have
- How is the data collected
- What data you need
- What data you want to keep or delete
- Data retention period
- Who has access to these data
- Who is involved in the processes of these data
- Which are the tools used for the processes of the data
- In what business processes are the data used
Based on the information collected, we work with your business team to identify the data flow within the organizations and to external parties. The data flow analysis provides an overview of the systems:
- Where the company stores data
- The process according which the company processes data and
- How data are exchanged between the systems.
The outcome of the identification phase will be a complete overview of the company's personal data, of the systems, processes and people that handle them.
Stages of GDPR Compliance
The GDPR Gap Analysis phase of the project is to help the organization identify the areas where potential gaps to the GDPR compliance exits. This phase utilizes the results of the data identification & data mapping to identify the gaps in GDPR data life cycle management.
Conducting Data Privacy Impact Assessment (DPIA) is a key requirement towards GDPR Compliance. DPIA need shall be performed before the implementation of specific initiatives. Performing Privacy Risk Assessment will provide insights on the capability of the organization to provide CARE (Consent, Access, Receipt & Erasure) for the personal data.
The objective of a DPIA is that extreme cases of data breach is considered, anticipated and thereby addressed by the management in protecting the GDPR personal data. Key stages of a DPIA would include:
- Threat identification
- Impact identification
- Evaluation of vulnerabilities
- Identifying the Privacy risks
- Risk treatment plan development
The implementation phase is for the organization to remediate the gaps identified and implement controls to reduce the risks to acceptable levels. ValueMentor team will provide advisory and governance services towards the remediation. The key focus would be given on process measures and technical measures.
Process measures: We will help the organization develop the GDPR governance structure, policies and procedures, checklists and/or process diagrams etc. This will enable the organization to demonstrate how it implements, maintain, updates and ensures the company adheres to GDPR Compliance
Technical measures: We will help the organization in designing the controls and defining the security and privacy architecture required for GDPR compliance. This will enable the organization to securely structure the systems and infrastructure to support the business process
It is required that all private and public companies/organisations subject to the EU GDPR be able to document at any times that they are compliant with the GDPR
GDPR requires that organizations must perform breach notifications to the relevant authorities within 72 hours of a data leak. The report shall have the following information:
- Type of data leaked
- Number of registered parties affected by the data leak
- Consequences to those registered parties
- Actions taken to ensure that this does not happen again
Considering this requirement, it is important to develop incident response plans, test them so that it can be utilized immediately when it is needed. these plans will detail the procedure to be followed and the responsibilities of the people involved in indent response.
GDPR compliance is an organizational effort. Educating the personnel in the organization who handles personal data is an important step. This will make the employees aware of their specific tasks regarding the protection of personal data.
The capability of the workforce to understand the responsibilities in handling personal data and apply them correctly, efficiently and using the set out tools, process and systems will ensure the company's compliance with the requirements set out in the GDPR.
Compliance is not a one time activity. GDPR compliance is an ongoing task that require continuous monitoring, evaluation and fine tuning. ValueMentor helps you build a governance model towards ensuring the GDPR compliance a "Business as Usual" activity.
We will help you with periodic health checks, compliance audits and required security testing. The result of these reviews would act as an input towards the Board Meetings and progress assessment of GDPR compliance.

Do you find most mid-towers a little too large, but find small form-factor chassis' to have the opposite issue? The latest entry to NZXT's "Classic Series", the Panzerbox, may have you covered. This sturdy aluminum chassis is neither too large nor too small, yet it still offers ample internal room for effective cooling. It doesn't look too bad, either!
Where chassis' are concerned, physical size seems to have been thrown to the wayside as of late. Chassis dimensions have grown to the point that most new enthusiast-grade units are all full ATX (aka "Full Tower"). This is fine for people who want the most robust expansion solution possible, yet it has left those of us looking for something more manageable with a lack of choices. No group has been hit harder than the LAN crowd since their motto is certainly not "bigger is better".
Having established themselves solidly in the enthusiast market, NZXT has thrown us a surprising curveball with their latest release in the Panzerbox. Touting oversize cooling fans and lightweight aluminum, this chassis is also one of the very few mid ATX spec cases that has been released in a fair bit of time. Since they have topped that off with a huge list of features and expansion options, I was excited to get my hands on one for a nice test drive.
Just to put this all into perspective, remember this. Coming in with the overall dimensions of 9 1/2″ (W) x 18″ (H) x 18″ (D), this case could even be called small. My first thought was to grasp at just how they thought we could get all of our high-end gear not only installed, but also kept from melting. Add to that the use of mostly lightweight aluminum in the design… I was not even sure if it had the structural integrity to withstand the abuse of a LAN event. Let's take a closer look and find out just how NZXT set out to accomplish their goals.
When the package first arrived, I was taken back as to how small the box was. It was hard to get past the "size matters" way of thinking, I'll admit. Once out of the box though, I was certainly impressed with both the look and feel of the chassis. Along with the extensive incorporation of mesh paneling, the case felt very sturdy overall – a nice plus.
Looking at the front, we can see the more-than-ample 190mm intake fan nestled neatly below the three 5 1/4″ expansion slots. I was somewhat surprised at the lack of external 3 1/2″ slots, but let's face it, there is little need for a floppy drive anymore, and front-mounted USB ports can handle flash card devices just fine.
The left side panel is cut to form and sports a mesh ventilation section to allow some fresh air to enter inside. The matte black paint job is good, simple, but clean. There is an unusual power supply mounting design with the Panzerbox that places it directly behind the mesh so you can draw cool air from the outside into your power supply area – a nice feature given the small overall design of the chassis.
The right side is a mirror image of the left with another mesh ventilation area included. While there is not direct venting in the motherboard tray, it is still a good idea to allow air inside this area since it is usually delegated to dead space.
The top is also a mesh design which is open from nearly front to back with another 190mm fan pulling out the heat. The I/O panel is simple and effective with dual USB, Mic/Headphone jacks and an eSATA port included.
The power and reset buttons are on the top left of the front panel next to the top 5 1/4″ expansion slot. They're nicely implemented and don't feel too flimsy, and below them you can find both the power and HDD LED's.
Taking a look to the rear we get our first look at the unusual placement of the power supply. Also notice the extra space over the removable motherboard tray to allow for internal installation of a dual 120mm water-cooling radiator when using the included rails. A single 120mm exhaust fan is included here as well.
With the side panel removed we see that the entire chassis is painted pure black, inside and out. This has become a feature that pretty much everyone is expecting to see now. This significantly improves the looks of the final build and enhances the conception of quality. Take note also of the overall open feel the interior has, despite its size. There is little for the front intake fan's airflow to run into before it starts doing its job of cooling down your components.
Everything inside the case is made from aluminum and it is well-designed for the most part. There are mounting points for 2 hard drives under the 5 1/2″ expansion slots. This design is twofold since it will also help wick away some extra heat from your drives.
Down below on the case floor there is a mounting rack for two more hard drives right behind the front intake fan. This cage is supported on rubber bushings and secured with a single thumbscrew. I like this design more than a full cage since it does not block the flow from the intake nearly as much as the usual full sized drive cage we see on most cases.
The power supply is located in the lower rear of the case mounting perpendicular to the case floor on two sturdy brackets. This design works well and uses space that is many times simply dead space. It should be noted that there is not much space left between the video card and supply, so be aware of that if you are not using reference cooling.
The rear exhaust fans are mounted where needed to draw out the heat of the business end of your PC. You can see the ample spacing up top that allows the internal installation of a dual 120mm water-cooling radiator as well as pre-drilled holes for later water lines should you choose to mount your rad externally.
With the removal of 5 thumbscrews, the motherboard tray slides easily out the back. I appreciate the design of this tray and there is plenty of space to allow you to mount the tallest air cooling heat sinks and graphics cards as well (as long as they use reference design coolers). This is a feature I have not seen used in some time and it sure does make assembly a much easier task.
You get all the usual hardware needed to build your PC as well as the brackets I briefly described that will mount to a water-cooling radiator which will allow you to use the factory holes that hold the 190mm fan. This is another feature which is sorely lacking in other designs since most radiators do not have a standard spacing on their mounting holes.
Overall, I'm impressed with both the layout and feel of the Panzerbox. There are no sharp edges to cut yourself on and the design is mostly tool-free. There is a definite feel of solidness despite the very light weight build. If you are going to be moving your PC around a lot, this is another thing that will attract you to the Panzerbox.

A thirteen year test phase is over. Enter Fair Remuneration Regulations Part II
2002 saw Germany adopt unique copyright legislation with the aim to strengthen the economic situation of authors and artists by vesting them with a claim for equitable remuneration. A multitude of legal battles erupted, model cases were litigated, about fair and adequate remuneration, disclosure obligations regarding revenues, adjustments of individual fee and collective agreements.
Forward to 2015 and the German legislator thought he had seen enough quarrelling. And now passed a reform reforming the reform. The new act also seeks to deal with the dramatic impact of the VG Wort vs. Vogel litigation (excluding the publishers from the distributions by collecting societies).
The law's main part is introducing means to improve the enforcement of claims for adequate remuneration and strengthen the overall statutory position of authors and performing artists. The regulatory concept seems driven by a game theory-like concept of "avoiding the burdensome". In several instances, the law allows the industry to escape potentially burdensome statutory obligations by setting-up and entering into guild or collective bargaining-type arrangements – the so called "Joint Remuneration Rules".
In detail:
To cut down unwanted buy-out agreements, if a buy-out is agreed, the duration of an exclusive grant of rights is limited to ten years, subject to certain exceptions:
- where the copyrighted contribution is of subordinate nature for the work, product or service;
- an architectural work or draft is concerned;
- the work is used for a trademark, design or community design; or
- the work is not intended for publication.
The above limitation on the duration of exclusivity can only be deviated from by Joint Remuneration Rules or collective bargaining agreements. However, certain carve-outs are made for works used for films, but namely deals on remake rights remain subject to the 10-year rule.
Authors and artists have the express right, once a year, to request from their contracting partner disclosure of and accounting for the extent of the exploitation of the work and the revenues and benefits obtained therefrom based on information usually available in the course of a regular business operation.
The disclosure and accounting obligations extend to third parties as well, at least to such party (i) which has "substantially determined the process of exploitation along the chain-of-title" or (ii) whose revenues and benefits have rendered the agreed remuneration to become obviously disproportionate. To make the enforcement of such claims easier for authors and artists, it suffices if facts capable of review render indications for either of these situations.
Again, none of the above can be waived by individual contract unless agreed in a Joint Remuneration Rule or collective bargaining agreement. In addition, associations of author's and users of works are provided with improved enforcement powers for Joint Remunerations Rules.
The entry into force should be expected around March 2017, i.e. three months after official publication. It is important to note that the law with only a few exceptions has no retro-active effect, but applies for all agreements to be entered into in the future. What is also expressly carved out is the application of the new rules to any computer programmes.
For most creatives industries the new rules may be a nuisance, but probably not necessarily "the end of the world". It surely makes sense to review and implement an appropriate set up to be able to comply with the new reporting requests. Considering the conclusion of Joint Remuneration Rules or collective bargaining may be advisable as well. Last but not least, properly adapted model agreements and templates should be used going forward.
A further chapter in the law changes the Act on Collective Rights Management. A new rule allows that after publication or registration of a work with a collecting society, the author may approve distribution of revenues for statutory claims for remuneration (e.g. the German private copying levy) by the collecting society also to the publisher.
Maybe this last piece made the political compromise happen a bit quicker than expected as publishers were facing an immense commercial hit from the recent CJEU and Federal Supreme Court rulings banning distribution to publishers which made the collecting societies claiming back those funds which were distributed to the publishers in the course of the last three years, which total well above EUR 100 million.

Staten Island, New York
Kreischer Mansion
This empty Victorian manse on Staten Island is said to be haunted but is actually a real life crime scene.
Sitting just off the Staten Island's poetically named Arthur Kill Road is the last remaining Kreischer Mansion, a lovely Victorian home that is said to be one of the most haunted places in all of New York, which may actually be true if one is referring to being haunted by memories of murder and death.
When Balthasar Kreischer came to Staten Island in the mid-1800s he brought with him terrifically successful brickworks that led to an economic boom in the area which soon became known as Kreischerville. As part of the wealth the elder Kreischer was accumulating he had twin mansions built atop Kreischer Hill for two of his sons. Unfortunately Balthasar died just a year after they were completed, but given what followed it is perhaps for the best. After the elder Kreischer's death, the brick factory his children inherited burnt to the ground. The family tried to rebuild, but the blow was too great and their fortunes soon fell, leading to one of his sons committing violent suicide in the mansion that stands today.
Of the two Kreischer mansions, one was destroyed during the Great Depression, but the other, where one of the Kreischer sons died, managed to survive despite the family's poor fortune. However the ornate gothic house soon became the target of local superstition and all manner of ghost stories involving strange voices and lights began to surround the mouldering manse. Despite its reputation, it was never completely abandoned but no business or resident has managed to stay there for long either.
Adding credence to the creepiness of the house is the very real crime that occurred there in 2005. On the order of a mafia boss, the caretaker of the empty mansion was paid thousands of dollars to carry out a hit at the site, which he did, dismembering the body and burning it in the basement furnace. Strange sounds indeed.
Today the Kreischer Mansion is back on the market and the ghost stories continue. With any luck the next tenants will have better luck than the last century's worth of ill-fated inhabitants.
