We recently conducted a mini-survey of some clients. Here are two results which I thought were very interesting.
Many large companies consolidate their translation needs in a centralised department. Through this consolidation and rationalisation, the company seeks to reduce costs. Every translation request goes through this single department which also manages the external relationships with Language Service Providers.
These centralised departments essentially become an internal supplier of translation services to their internal customers (overseas offices and departments).
We asked them which factor was most important to them.
46% rated the cost of the translation as the most important factor. If you add "On-time delivery", then 60% of their focus is on project management: cost and time.
Centralised translation service: internal supplier
Then we asked their internal customers – those overseas offices which actually make use of the translation – what they consider the most important factor.
Translation consumer
The project management aspects are not nearly so important (totalling only 31%). Far more important was that the translation was accurate and well written (69%).
When creating a centralised department, therefore, a company explicity announces the tension between money and quality. Implicitly, it is pitting the internal supplier against the internal consumer who have demands which appear to be in conflict.
The demands of the consumer meet the constraints of the supplier
This tension is important and it would be naive to think that it didn't exist. But it can only benefit the company if the system is truly in tension. That is, if both "money" and "quality" are exerting pressure.
If the centralised department succeeds in reducing costs to the point where the translations are poor quality, has anyone really won? Remember that a centralised department is also a monopoly and if this were to exist in the free market, there would be a regulator. So the company needs to provide the internal consumer with a method to send feedback to the internal supplier. And this feedback needs to form a real and important part of the overall system. It can't be simply a "nice to have".
A feedback mechanism, where data is collated, organised and reported, can highlight problems, opportunities and successes. A centralised department can use this data to reduce costs, improve quality, increase consistency and shorten project duration.
Only through a robust quality feedback loop can you keep the entire system under tension and only then will you see both lower translation costs and better quality. You can have your cake and eat it: you can improve project management whilst improving quality.
We know it can be done because we've provided consulting to companies on exactly how to do it: how to install a translation quality feedback mechanism that works for both your internal translation consumers and your centralised department.

ADYOULIKE CEO, Julien Verdier, shares his tips on what it takes to expand your native advertising business internationally.
ADYOULIKE has grown phenomenally over the last few years to become a truly global native advertising business.
As the leading global programmatic native advertising technology and exchange we do business globally 24/7. We have staff, partners, publishers and advertisers in all major markets. It's exciting growth that will continue for years to come.
But launching any business globally has it's challenges. Below are a few tips any digital entrepreneur or business leader may want to consider prior to taking your business international.
1. Know your new market
You would never have started your business without researching target audiences. The same rule applies to expanding – even though you may be established in one country, you still need to conduct market research elsewhere.
Start by taking several months to conduct your research – it might be helpful to structure this like a SWOT analysis that includes (among other things): an industry assessment, competitor benchmarking, profiling of potential audiences and potential challenges to expansion. This is also an opportunity to think about more general trends that could pose a challenge to your expansion. Case in point: if you're a UK company looking to expand to the European Union, you'll need to factor Brexit into your plans and come up with plans to handle barriers to recruitment or tariffs on goods or services.
2. It's who you know
Pursuing new business and wooing clients can be time consuming, and if you've taken the time to build relationships, you probably have a reasonably strong network of partners you can call on for help. Given the global nature of business today, chances are good that someone in your network will have contacts in your chosen country of expansion. Do some digging to figure out which partners you can call on – even if they can't do anything themselves, if you have a strong relationship, they'll be more likely to pass you on to local contacts who can be of more assistance.
Don't underestimate this step. Contacts can give valuable advice and help with hands-on experience when launching your company in a new territory. Partners may even agree to continue your relationship into newly established markets, taking some pressure off you to find new partners.
3. Don't copy and paste your strategy
You may have your strategy perfected at home, but this doesn't mean anything when it comes to new markets. Applying the same strategy without doing your market research will not work. Resist the temptation to apply a one size fits all strategy. It may seem easier in the short run, but taking the time to customise and know your audience will save you headaches in the long term. Expansion should be thought of almost as starting a new business, and shortcuts are no way to bring success. Do your homework and build on existing strategy. Some things may translate well, but others may not. Build and scrap accordingly, being sure to personalise your approach. This could be something as simple as creating a new website, or something more complex like totally revamping your pitch materials.
4. Stay calm and carry on
After all the research is done, it's time to launch. The most important thing to remember when you reach this stage is this: like everything else in business, expanding will not be totally smooth – things will go wrong and it's important to stay flexible. Managing your expectations about launching will help you adapt to anything that might pop up, and react to situations quickly.
5. Personally make the move
If you're able, it's worth spending some time in your country of choice, whether you live there for several months or visit for several weeks. Doing this helps to align expectations, visions and understandings as to what approach will be needed. You'll also need to hire local professionals to support the business. Local knowledge is an invaluable asset and working directly with locals means that you can get up to speed more quickly with the intricacies required from your new market. Calls, emails and meetings will not be sufficient bonding for foster any new relationships in new markets. To do this, you need to fully integrate into the country and build connections from the ground up.
The key thing to remember when taking your company international is this: success in one place does not automatically mean success everywhere. Expanding is hard work and will require a lot of preparation and flexibility. That said – if you develop a country-specific plan, and stick to it, the opportunities for success are boundless.

The green nature has always been a source inspiration for designers in an effort to create fascinating designs. To the same amount that flowers and plants exist in the nature, there are patterns to set the framework for designs. This is the same variety of designs which make the hard- woven carpet so colorful. The floral design, Forest design, Tree design, European flower (Rose) design, Four-Season design and the most famous nature designs are Hunting Ground design and Gulfarang.
Golfarang (Rose) Rugs:
Rose flower is an ancient motif in whole Iranian arts and it is a sign for tradition Iranian paradise as well. By interfacing relations between Iran and European countries during Ghajar period and exchanging goods, this original design combine with European flowers which were used on materials and by the innovation of Iranian artists, another new design was added to the pattern treasure of Iranian people. Rose flower is an indication of beautifulness, being young freshness. The special red rose in Iranian culture is a sign for love and enlivening. You can imagine the exquisite and lovely Iranian gardens when we are looking the red flowers in these carpet designs.
Hunting Scene Rugs:
The Persian hunting design is one of the oldest and most elusive carpet styles. Originally created for Shahs and imperial leaders, the Persian hunting rug embodies a regal handsomeness and masculinity that is seldom seen in Persian city carpets. Rugs bearing the classic Persian hunting design include the oldest existent pile carpet as well as the most valuable silk carpets known today. The tradition of hunting is deeply immersed within Persian epic history. Years before the first hunting scene rug was ever woven, hunting stories were passed down orally for over 1300 years.
Animals depicted on hunting carpets include horses, camels, war elephants, gazelle, deer, birds, hares, peacocks and mythical creatures like griffins. The bird has bilateral concept and conveys the meaning of good news and good fortunes for everyone. Also by circling the whole designs and flying all birds around central medallion the life circle will be observed as conclusion.
Because hunting was considered such a distinguished act, these carpets represent a part of princely life. Furthermore, many hunting scene rugs were originally commissioned for nobility and royalty.

When it comes to measuring an a bank's financial strength, capital is key. It works as a bulwark against losses and affords protection for depositors when a bank is struggling financially. From a safety and soundness perspective, the higher the capital, the better.
On our test to measure the adequacy of a bank's capital, Fieldpoint Private Bank & Trust received a score of 10 out of a possible 30 points, failing to reach the national average of 13.13.
One way to measure this buffer is looking at a bank's Tier 1 capital ratio. Fieldpoint Private Bank & Trust's Tier 1 capital ratio was 15.03 percent, above the 6 percent level regulators consider adequate, but under the national average of 25.65 percent. A higher capital ratio means the bank will be better able to weather economic challenges.
Overall, Fieldpoint Private Bank & Trust held equity amounting to 10.04 percent of its assets, which was lower than the national average of 12.03 percent.
This test is intended to estimate how the bank's reserves set aside to cover loan losses, as well as overall capitalization, could be affected by problem assets, such as past-due loans.
Having large numbers of these kinds of assets may eventually force a bank to use capital to cover losses, shrinking its equity buffer. Many of those assets are also likely to be in non-accrual status and no longer earning interest for the bank, resulting in reduced earnings and potentially more risk of a future failure.
Fieldpoint Private Bank & Trust exceeded the national average of 37.49 on Bankrate's test of asset quality, racking up 40 out of a possible 40 points .
A useful indicator of asset quality is the percentage of problem assets a bank holds compared to its total assets. As of December 31, 2017, none of Fieldpoint Private Bank & Trust's loans were noncurrent -- in other words, they were more than 90 days past due or were in non-accrual status. That's below the national average of 1.01 percent.
Banks keep a reserve known as an "allowance for loan and lease losses" to deal with troubled assets . Comparing the size of that reserve to the total amount of problematic loans can be a handy indicator when evaluating a bank's ability to manage troubled assets. Unfortunately, the FDIC did not provide information on Fieldpoint Private Bank & Trust's loan loss allowance in its most recent filings.
A bank's ability to earn money affects its long-term survivability. Earnings can be retained by the bank, increasing its capital buffer, or be used to deal with problematic loans, likely making the bank better prepared to withstand economic shocks. Conversely, losses reduce a bank's ability to do those things.
Fieldpoint Private Bank & Trust scored 10 out of a possible 30 on Bankrate's test of earnings, less than the national average of 15.12.
Return on equity, calculated by dividing net income (profit, basically) by the total amount of equity, is one important way to measure a bank's earnings. Fieldpoint Private Bank & Trust's most recent annualized quarterly return on equity was 4.58 percent, below the national average of 8.10 percent.
For the twelve months ended December 31, 2017, the bank reported net income of $4.2 million on total equity of $93.4 million. The bank experienced an annualized return on average assets, or ROA, of 0.47 percent, below the 1 percent deemed satisfactory in accordance with industry standards and below the average for U.S. banks of 1.00 percent.
Bankrate.com's Safe & Sound Ratings provide a star rating system to evaluate the current financial status of financial institutions. The information gathered about banks, credit unions and thrifts is updated as set forth in the Terms of Use of Safe & Sound Ratings and Reports. The Safe & Sound Ratings information is grouped by categories of banks, thrifts and credit unions.
Bankrate.com evaluates the financial condition of institutions and assigns a one- to five-star rating for each with five stars representing the highest rating. Institutions with satisfactory performance will generally receive a rating of three or more stars. The majority of institutions fall into the three- to four-star range. An institution with an "NR" rating may be too new to rate or may have limited the publicly available information in their regulatory filings. The "NR" is not an indication of financial strength or weakness. The Safe & Sound rating is believed to be reliable, but the information is not guaranteed. In addition, events since the information was collected may have altered the institution's financial condition.

"The Perfect Push-up saved my life," I told Alden. "How?" he said as he looked at me with his intense SEAL eyes.
Here's my story. It started with a small pain in my neck which got progressively worse, to the point that in two weeks I was on pain pills and couldn't sleep or think straight. It took all my energy to just get through a day -- and I've always been a fitness fanatic.
In a desperately weakened state after two months because of the pain, I went back to yoga where I kept hearing "core" this and "core" that. I finally asked my instructor, "What exactly is the core? " She said, "It's your abs or something". Angry and panicky, I went home and did hours of research about the core (basically the body minus arms and legs) and finally found an article written by a Navy Seal on how to develop core fitness with the pushup. I remembered that when a former Navy SEAL was my body building partner, I had never been stronger nor had I ever been able to do so many pushups. Even though Scotty, my SEAL partner, had been burned from head to toe from a propane truck explosion and worked out covered from head to toe in a "Job" suit, his motto was "Failure is not an option."
When I remembered Scotty and his unwavering drive to be the best, I told my husband Barry that we were going to do pushups. He discovered the Perfect Pushup and we were on our way.
When I started my pushups in April of 2007, I could do three from my knees, crying and humiliated and feeling so weak. When I met Alden just 3 months later I was doing 20 push ups on my toes. I had my life back! My body started to get stronger through the arms and around the solar plexus (stomach) first. After that my torso started to support my body and my neck pain subsided considerably. In two months, my neck pain was gone. My natural, functional movements that had become hesitant became confident again. I was able to start doing things again without the constant worry of "Is this going to hurt?" mantra.
I progressed really quickly as my core got stronger. My entire torso and system seemed to re-center. My "I can't" belief was challenged and put to the test. Even though my improvement was gradual, I pushed past what was possible for my intellect to believe that I could achieve. And yes, that involved tears, and anger, and fear. I am now up to a Max set of 40. They really are correct pushups too.
My clothes started looking good on me again as the muscles started filling in. I had become really thin from lack of exercise. The waking up of my muscles was amazing too: from sore and stiff from non-use to toned with beautiful, youthful definition. My posture was another complete transformation, from being hunched forward and closed off to being able to hold my head up. Without a strong core, your body feels very separate from your head.
How lucky I feel to be able to share this story with everyone. Thank you to two Navy SEALs, Scotty and Alden, and Barry, my workout buddy, husband, and the guy who found me the Perfect Pushup. What an incredible journey it's been … and now I know what the core is!
Thanks and Charlie Mike……Laiya Moniak

Thanks, Laiya, for the inspirational post. It was nice to read another woman's perspective. Unlike you, I've never been particularly fit or active. But as I've gotten older, I have realized the importance of taking better care of my body. I've tried various ways to accomplish that -- some more successful than others -- including working with Stew Smith, SEAL friend of Alden's and also a great inspiration. I got my PPU (mobile, because I travel so much) in the mail just before leaving for a European vacation. I tried using it and got pretty discouraged by how little I could do. But having read your post, I'm looking forward to getting home and trying again. Thanks again for posting. -- Mary

Keep up the great energy.
Its all about not getting frustrated because we are not where we think or feel we should be.
I know how that feels.
Keep up the push ups and you will get stronger.

Great Job, I loved your post.
I hurt my wrist about 6 months ago and have been unable to do any pushups. Boy can I tell. I'm ready to get started again. Thanks for the inspiration!!!

Reading your post was a great motivator! It moved me to include my travel PPU in my suitcase last night while I was preparing for a business trip. My goal is to use it each day while on the road! Thanks for sharing your story.

As much as l enjoy — even love — writing this blog, it produces at least one uncomfortable side effect.
I distribute High Plains Blogger's contents along several social media platforms: Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, to name three. It's the Facebook distribution that results in something that gives me the heebie-jeebies.
Blog supporters and critics read my entries. They respond to statements that come from the blog. Then someone else will respond to the individual who is commenting on the contents of the blog.
It doesn't matter who starts the exchange. It can come from someone on either side. When it commences, though, it occasionally gets personal.
It's an intriguing aspect of this community "discussion." Strangers who have never looked each other in the eye presume to know the other person's motives. For that matter, I have total strangers who read this blog regularly who presume to know my own motivations and they respond with some sort of faux knowledge. But … that's OK with me. I let it slide.
When individuals start yammering at each other in response to High Plains Blogger, I find myself feeling badly when someone ascribes nefariousness to someone else's point of view. Or, they accuse someone of ignorance.
I don't intend to dissuade commenters from speaking out freely and passionately. It's an American thing to do. I like that individuals get worked up. However, it does make me a bit queasy when the commenters get personal with their newfound foes over each other's comments.
None of this will deter me from using this blog to speak out. It's what I do these days now that I no longer am a working stiff.
I'll just have to suck it up when readers of this blog — be they friend or foe — decide to go after those on the other side of the gaping political divide.
Stay tuned. Keep reading. And by all means, feel free to offer your own perspective. It's a great country, yes?

Yes, we already discussed pigment powders. But glow in the dark pigments deserve its own category. Party loving and fun loving slimers alike will definitely find these enticing. These can be found in powder form across many different colors. First, shine a light onto the pigment-infused slime. This energizes the crystals of the pigment and stores up energy. Then, you can cloak the slime in darkness and the phosphors in the pigment will slowly emit the stored energy with a stunning glow. Don't forget the first step, or you'll be wondering why the glow-in-the-dark is not working.
Sonic Blue Slime Pigment Powder
I am going to tag you guys in a post of me and my slime @slime_jada_101 I love your pigment so much they're so great and I will be definitely telling my friends and my other friends in the slime community thank you so much for this pigment and I definitely will be purchasing again
Have you ever had a pleasing reaction to something but were unable to articulate how it makes you feel because it makes absolutely no sense? For example, I love the smell of freshly opened tennis balls. I am fully aware that the smell shouldn't be great, it's hardly enticing on paper. If I had to describe it, I'd say it's a musky, muddy, petroleum, rubbery odor. Sounds great, huh? Interestingly, there is a fraction of the population who, like me, loves this smell.

AGFM Films today announced live action feature 'BRAVE THE DARK' starring Jared Harris (currently receiving rave reviews for his role in Chernobyl and having previously starred in The Crown, The Terror, Lincoln, Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows) and to be directed by Damian Harris (Deceived, Gardens of the Night, The Wilde Wedding). In this coming of age feature, Harris will play Stan Deen, a popular drama teacher who tries to help one of his wayward students, whilst dealing with his own issues.
Casting is underway for the role of Nate Busko, Mr Deen's student who has resigned himself to continuing along the path his troubled upbringing has set him off upon.
Synopsis: Nate Busko has spent 12 of his 17 years running from the past. Fed up with being shunted from one foster home to another, he now lives in his car, dining on cornhusks and using track practice as an opportunity for a shower. By the time night falls he couldn't be more different from the confident, swaggering persona of school. Alone, he is haunted by fragments of traumatic memories from his past.
Enter Stan Deen a popular high school drama teacher dealing with his own issues. He sees Nate's latent talent and need for care and guidance where no other teacher has and sets out to help. But in a startling event, Nate is arrested in the middle of school and marched off in handcuffs. Stan follows Nate to the police station and not only organises bail but agrees to take Nate into his own home, despite the raised eyebrows he receives from his fellow teachers.
Stan is prepared to do all he can to help his troubled student. But the question is, can someone really be helped if you're not willing to help themselves?
Commenting from London, GFM Films Partner, Michael Ryan, said: 'Stories about mentors that change people's lives are a perennial success and we've been incredibly lucky to get Jared coming off the back of Chernobyl, which is receiving fabulous reviews around the world. Additionally, Jared working with his brother Damian is a producer's dream and we are excited to be launching this special film to the international marketplace at Cannes.'
Talking about the film, Jared Harris said: 'I've loved this script ever since my brother asked me to take a look at it. Back then it wasn't with a view to being in it. He just wanted me to throw ideas at him as he was organizing his thoughts about structure and character. I saw in it a powerful story of redemption, the toxic effect of a lie, how running from the pain of the past destroys any hope for a future, and the strength that comes from simple acts of compassion. It's a true story, a modern story, and a story as old as mankind.'
Director Damian Harris added 'This is the true story of a good person whose compassion and perseverance not only saved but changed a life, and it comes at a moment when it is of genuine value and service. Jared has become one of the great actors of his generation and I'm excited and proud to be making this film together.'
The film will be produced by Grant Bradley, Dale Bradley and Paul Griffin and is based on a true story.

When searching any country and its attractions into Google, you're usually inundated with thousands of pages of the various attractions in the country and even a bit overwhelmed. A quick search on Tripadvisor will usually yield pages on the top activities to enjoy, as well as various reviews from people having visited.
Search Nauru tourism/Nauru travel into Google, however, and you'll find yourself a bit stumped.
No wonder, since the country is the world's least visited country.
This island of 21 km2 tucked away in the middle of the Pacific may be tiny, but it has a lot to offer.
#5 Yaren
Nauru's largest city, Yaren, is the closest thing the island has to a capital city. Here you will find the island's airport, police stations, and administration offices. You can also visit the parliament house here. As of 2003, the population of Yaren was a mere 1,100.
Here you can also visit the remains of the once-grand Presidents House that was burned down in early 2000s by locals angry at the government's mismanagement of funds.
#4 Scuba Diving/Deep Sea Fishing
There is a couple of companies on the island that offer scuba diving excursions in Nauru. Due to the lack of equipment available, divers must bring their own equipment as it is not always available to hire.
This is some of the best diving since you cannot find coral reefs more untouched than these. There is also a vast array of marine life, as well as a large shipwreck to explore.
There are two main companies who specialize in deep sea fishing excursions, however, many islanders will also be more than willing to offer up their boat and take customers out. This, of course, depends on the weather and weather conditions. The better the weather, the further and deeper out you can travel.
Fish often caught include; Barracuda, yellowfin tuna, marlin, and skipjack.
#3 War remains
In order to explore some of the best war relics, you'll need a car and some pretty exact locations, or a tour guide. You will be able to various things left from Japanese occupation during WWII. Amongst this includes rotating 6-barrel guns and a communications bunker.
If you have a scout about the island yourself, you will find its dotted in Japanese cannons hidden amongst the trees – or even simply right in front of people's houses. There's even an old Japanese prison concealed amongst the trees. Few months ago, local people even found some human bones in a cave of Anibare district. You can also discover various sizes of bunkers in different districts, but you probably need the help from a local guide.
Read more about the island's fascinating history here.
#2 Its beaches
The Anibare Bay is where it's at on Nauru. This is where you'll find the most tropical beaches with the most sand. This is the only place on the island where the water is deep and calm enough to swim.
The palm tree-lined beaches and beautiful untouched beaches are enough to draw any island paradise lover in. White sands dominate the turquoise water, and activities such as surfing and swimming are offered on the beach. However, due to temperamental weather, one needs to take caution when in the water.
#1 It's the world's smallest island & least visited country
If this isn't a claim to fame, then we don't know what is. For country collector's and alternative travel geeks alike, this is the creme de la creme of countries to visit.
Getting there
Saying that getting to Nauru is difficult is a massive understatement. There is currently only one airline that serves the island, "Nauru Airline", and only bi-weekly flights. The only practical routes available to tourists is from Brisbane, Australia. Although, there may be a few occasional flights departing from other islands.

It's time for another interview, this time with Sara! She's an amazing cosplayer from Taiwan, who has quite the array of costumes!
What's your cosplay alias and why did you choose it?
My name is Sara and it's my real English name. By the way, "SARA" in Japanese means "shala tree", a kind of flower. I love the meaning of it.
How many years have you been cosplaying and what got you started?
I have been cosplaying more then 10 years. I was a young student and I knew some friends who love "Rurouni Kenshin". We decided to make cosplays of "Rurouni Kenshin" together to join a comic event. It's a very happy memory to me.
What has been some of your favorite things to work with when constructing costumes and why?
I love spandex fabrics. It's very useful making props or something. It's hard to sew but I still love it. And I love foam, too. I use it to make many props, like armors, elf ears, etc. It's a kind of material that's very useful.
What are you excited to be working with in the future and why?
I want to make more armor from "Saint Seiya", especially the armor of Hades. It's my favorite anime in my life, so I have to think about how to use foam or PVC better to make the armor. It's very fun making it.
What are some of the traits you like to see in other costumes and who do you think does well in them?
The construction? I want to see the image of the character be presented well by cosplay.
There are many cosplayers who do it very well. They always make me think "Wow, He/She is real in the world!"
What is your view of the "cosplay scene"?
I love cosplay because it make me happy. It's fun to be a character from another world, it's fun to see the character you love come true in the real world. It's very fun making costumes and props. Cosplay is a fun hobby; I think it's a very pure desire to do it.
What are some of the things you want to see change in the scene?
I hope that everyone has fun when they are cosplaying. And, I hope that there will be more and more cosplayers that "make" their cosplay by themselves. It's so fun making costumes… I want to see more idea from other cosplayers! There are too many "Garments" here now; everyone wears the same thing and I can't see any idea in it. It's not bad to cosplay with "Garments"; it does make cosplay easy, but I still want to see more fun in "making" instead.
What is some advice you could give people starting to get into cosplay?
Have fun!! Just do it! Make something simple and don't be afraid to fail. Put your work on, and be proud of it.
What are some of your favorite conventions you've attended and why?
I've only attended "Comic world in Taiwan" here; it has been held many years in Taiwan. There are many cosplayers and artists and you can buy many kinds of fan art and take photos of cosplayers. It was my first time cosplaying ("Rurouni Kenshin") with friends many years ago when we attended the "Comic world in Taiwan".
Give a random fact about one of your costumes that you're proud of!
I'm so proud of being a Gold Saint from Saint Seiya. It's my childhood dream. It was hard for me to make the armor at first, and I finally made it. I made 9 total armors of Gold Saints. I was in tears by the time 9 gold saints took photos together. So happy to make my dream come true!
Thanks for the interview, Sara! You can see more of her work on her Deviantart and her website!

Presidents Day Activities Pages Worksheets for Kindergarten Kids: Taking all things into account, by the governing body, the occasion saw on the third Monday in February is authoritatively Washington's Birthday. Regardless, different Americans trust this occasion is straightforwardly called "Presidents' Day," to pay tribute to both Presidents Washington and Lincoln, whose birthdays are Feb. 22 and Feb. 12, freely. Things being what they are whether you respect either or both of these presidents may rely on where you live.
Presidents Day Activities Pages Worksheets for Kindergarten Kids
The states are not obliged to handle government occasions, which just effect picked working situations and work environments. While most states have gotten a handle on Washington's Birthday, twelve of them honest to goodness watch Presidents' Day. A segment of the states that watch Washington's Birthday likewise observe Lincoln's Birthday as another real occasion.
George Washington was conceived on Feb 22, 1732, and Abraham Lincoln was conceived on Feb 12, 1809. Since February was such a decent month for critical American president's birthdays the American government chose it would be an incredible thought to praise every year with a National Holiday.
President's Day is praised on the third Monday of February consistently. It primarily perceives George Washington's birthday yet I believe it's a decent time to discuss your most loved president, consider what you may do on the off chance that you were the president and consider what qualities you think a decent president ought to have.
Happy President's Day

Puffco Peak Review – It's a Bit of a Disappointment for Me
Quick thoughts on the Puffco Peak No doubt that the aesthetics of the Puffco Peak are fantastic. But more than that, the slew of glowing online reviews led me to assume that its performance would blow me away. Heck, some people had gone as far as to say that it performed on par with the

When I'm in social situations I really struggle, I interact because I force myself to but I'm absolutely curling up inside. I've learnt to compensate quite well but not really how to handle the aftermath and general anxiety.
I've had so many bad experiences that I just don't understand why anyone would want me around, I don't hate myself, I think I'm fine and enjoy my own company but when I'm around other people I feel really defective.
When someone is friendly and leads a conversation I'm fine at talking to them, even if it causes me some anxiety. But most people I come across seem to dislike me on sight.
One time in a book club I used the word "distraught" to describe a character and got chastised and asked to use simpler language, I don't feel like distraught is an especially complex word and it made me feel very self conscious and judged. Stuff like that happens a lot in groups. I feel like I'm established as the odd one out a lot and it's upsetting.
I feel like I always stick out, and it's stunning me into silence.
I'm genuinely finding it harder and harder to talk out loud, but I don't want to be silent, or unlikable or alone.

Stay on target
The next wave of RealBotix sex robots are coming soon—and they'll satisfy more than your libido.
Henry, a nearly six-foot-tall humanoid with rippling six-pack abs and a library of quippy one-liners, is one of the first "companions" aimed at women.
Every part of him is customizable—down to the size and shape of his manhood. But, unlike the female cyborgs already on the market, this life-like doll isn't entirely automated.
Nor is he very bright.
During a recent sit-down with the plasticized hunk, Wired's Erin Griffith was left, well, unstimulated by Henry's conversational skills.
"Henry and I are not hitting it off," she writes. "First he ignores my question about how he spent the weekend. Then he tells me, cryptically, that he likes to get up early to spend time 'working on himself.' What does he mean by that? I ask. He isn't sure."
Sometimes, the RealBotix work-in-progress admits, "I have too much information at the same time in my brain."
Nothing new there, right ladies?
Despite their obvious reason for being, these dolls are not really about sex, according to RealBotix founder Matt McMullen.
Many customers just want someone—or something—to prop up on the couch while they spoon Ben & Jerry's and binge Riverdale.
"All of the little things that are nonsexual, I think, are often overlooked," McMullen told Griffith—"surrounded by a bounty of 32F-cup boobs and 11-inch penises."
RealBotix tailor-makes each sex doll based on customer preference: elf ears, vampire teeth, porn star Stormy Daniels' nipples. Still, fewer than 10 percent of its 400 annual orders are shipped to women or couples.
"But female interest in Henry—a robot that, the company promises, will one day talk to you about your day, remember your hopes and fears, cuddle you, love you, and of course make love to you (or something)—has been notably higher," McMullen explained.
"He believes that an extra layer of companionship especially appeals to women," Griffith wrote, nothing that women often ask if Henry can take out the trash (while men just want to know if Harmony will "bite their dicks").
He can't (immobile body) and she won't (rubber teeth). The inquiries, however, speak volumes to what sexbot manufacturers should be working to address.
The RealBotix website primarily focuses on Harmony, an artificial intelligence platform that lets users create a unique digital personality for $20 a year. There is no explicit mention of Henry or the production of any male sexbots.
For now, the niche market—seemingly open only to the independently wealthy, or incredibly desperate—is still in its infancy.
As is Henry: "Be kind, because [he's] a baby," McMullen told Griffith.

Lewis Hamilton said he was baffled by his struggles during the Australian Grand Prix after finishing in third position.
The Briton, visibly unhappy with the result after the race, started from pole position but was unable to stay in first place at the start, with team-mate Jenson Button passing him and leading all the way to the end.
Hamilton was around 10 seconds behind Button when the safety car was deployed 11 laps from the end, and he was then passed by Sebastian Vettel in the Red Bull.
Hamilton conceded he could not understand where his lack of pace was coming from.
"I really don't know, I just struggled out there," said Hamilton. "I got a shocking start which was really the beginning of it all.
"It was obviously a tough race, but congrats to Jenson it was great race for him. It would have been great to have had a one-two, but it just wasn't a good day for me."
The Briton described his result as pretty poor, but has vowed to re-group and fight back next weekend in Malaysia.
"It's okay. It's a pretty poor standard compared to some others."
"[I will ] just re-focus, get my head down and there's lots of races ahead. In these championships it's all about consistency so that is what I am going to focus on."

Once this has been done, you only need to select your bet amount using the slider option. The bet amount you place will determine your share if the Newlette Wheel. Newlette Classic is a single player one, but you will be opposed to one to four computer opponents. While you are placing your bet, you will not be able to see how many opponents you have or how much they are betting. All these, including the pot amount is revealed once your bet amount has been placed. The higher your bet amount, the bigger your share, and the more chances you have to win. As soon as the game starts, the wheel will spin and a silver ball will stop on one of the colours on the wheel. If it lands on the colour of your avatar, you are the winner.
If you win 5 times in a row, you will be awarded the Bonus round. The bonus round of Newlette Classic gives one free spin which is played on the Newlette Wheel itself. Wherever the silver ball stops, you win that prize. Every time you win a round, you are given one golden star which determines how close you are to triggering the bonus feature. But these stars cannot be saved for later. For instance, if you have 3 stars and you change to another room, the stars are lost.
60% of the maximum bet amount can be placed by the computer opponent. If you want to play a specific number of games with the same bet amount, simply click on Auto-Spin feature of Newlette Classic. This option will make the games play automatically. The option can be turned off anytime you like.
Was this modern type of roulette to your taste? If yes, you can play it anytime you wish by registering at Spin and Win Casino anytime you wish, using either your mobile, tablet or laptop. If not, then you can still try other table games such as French Roulette, 3 Wheel Roulette, English Roulette or Monopoly Roulette Tycoon.

Upper Endoscopy Doctor NYC Gastroenterologist | NYC Endoscopy GI Doctor
Upper Endoscopy in Midtown Manhattan and Upper East Side, NYC
The Gastroenterologists at Manhattan Gastroenterology offer endoscopy screening in NYC (including bowel cancer screening), diagnosis and treatment for diseases that affect any part of the digestive system, from the upper oesophagus, stomach and small intestine right through to the colon, rectum and anus.
The term "Upper Endoscopy" is a medical procedure that lets our endoscopy NYC doctors visually inspect the lining of the upper part of your gastrointestinal tract. This includes your esophagus, stomach and duodenum, which is the upper portion of your small intestine.
Our endoscopy doctors, best in class NYC gastroenterologists uses a thin, flexible tube called an endoscope for this procedure. The endoscope has a lens and light source on its tip, and it sends the video it captures to a video monitor so the GI doctor and endoscopy specialist can view and interpret the images.
An endoscopy requires only mild sedation, while the small, flexible video camera is passed through the mouth into either the stomach or intestine to allow the gastroenterologist, NYC endoscopy doctor to identify problems in the gastrointestinal tract and, in some circumstances, remove abnormal growths.
In some cases endoscopy NYC doctors and GI specialists use Capsule endoscopy which is an effective detection method of diagnosing the source of bleeding, anemia, abdominal pain, diarrhea, Crohn's disease, and suspected tumors. For an additional clinical benefits and effectiveness of capsule endoscopy refer to the study published on PubMed "Small bowel capsule endoscopy"
Why You May Need an Upper Endoscopy in NYC
Upper endoscopy in NYC helps gastroenterologist and our GI doctors find the source of symptoms such as upper abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting or difficulty swallowing. It's also the best test to find the cause of bleeding from your upper gastrointestinal tract. Upper endoscopy we use in our New York endoscopy center is more accurate than X-rays for detecting inflammation, ulcers and tumors of the esophagus, stomach and duodenum.
Our doctors also can use upper endoscopy to retrieve a biopsy or small tissue sample. They'll send the sample to a laboratory to distinguish between benign (non-cancerous) and malignant (cancerous) tissues. Keep in mind that the doctor may take a biopsy for many reasons, even if they don't suspect cancer. For example, a biopsy can test for Helicobacter pylori, the bacterium that causes ulcers.
NYC upper endoscopy is the perfect tool for treating medical conditions in your upper gastrointestinal tract. The gastroenterologist can pass a variety of instruments through the endoscope with little or no discomfort to you. For example, they may use upper endoscopy NYC to perform a cytology test, in which they passes a small brush through the endoscope to collect cells for later analysis. They can stretch or dilate a narrowed area, treat bleeding or remove polyps, which usually are benign growths, from the lining of your gastrointestinal tract.
Upper Endoscopy Preparations
For the best and safest exam, you should have an empty stomach when you come for your appointment to our Upper East Side NYC facility for your endoscopy. Don't have anything to eat or drink, including water, for approximately six hours before your procedure. Our doctor will tell you exactly when to start fasting, as the timing can vary.
Medication Questions
Tell your doctor in advance of any medications you currently take, particularly aspirin products or antiplatelet agents, insulin, arthritis medications, anticoagulants (such as blood thinners like warfarin or heparin), clopidogrel or iron supplements. They may tell you to adjust your normal dose before your procedure. Also discuss any medication allergies you may have, as well as any medical conditions, such as heart or lung disease.
You should continue to take your medications as usual unless the doctor specifically informs you not to. Some medications can interfere with your preparation or with the examination.
Upper Endoscopy Procedure in NYC
The doctor might start by spraying your throat with a local anesthetic. An anesthesiologist will be present to administer medication to keep your comfortable during your procedure. Then you'll lie on your side.
Once you're relaxed or sedated, our doctor passes the endoscope through your mouth and into your esophagus, stomach and duodenum. Since the endoscope doesn't interfere with your breathing, you may feel only slight discomfort. Many patients, in fact, fall asleep during the procedure.
Recovering from an Upper Endoscopy in New York Endoscopy Center
After the endoscopy NYC procedure, the office staff will monitor your recovery while the medications wear off. Your throat may feel a little sore, and the air introduced into your stomach during the procedure can cause you to feel slightly bloated. These are both minor and temporary conditions.
You'll be able to eat after the procedure unless your doctor instructs you otherwise. They'll explain the results of the examination to you, although you may have to wait for the results of any biopsies.
If you've received sedatives for the procedure, you must have a responsible friend or relative drive you home and stay with you. Even if you feel alert, your judgment and reflexes may be impaired for the rest of the day.
Upper Endoscopy Complications
Although complications can occur, they are rare, especially when trained and experienced gastroenterologists like our doctors perform the procedure. A perforation or puncture in your gastrointestinal tract lining that may require surgery is extremely rare and very uncommon during this procedure.
Other complications are minor. After endoscopy NYC you can experience bleeding where a polyp was removed or biopsy taken, but it's often minimal and rarely requires a follow-up. This bleeding may last for several days after the procedure, but it's usually minor. You may have a reaction to the sedatives, which is why it's important to discuss your medication allergies. If you have heart or lung disease, these conditions can cause complications.
Although complications are very uncommon, you should learn to recognize their early symptoms. Contact your doctor immediately if you have a fever after the test, if you have trouble swallowing, if you experience increasing throat, chest or abdominal pain or if you notice any prolonged bleeding, including internal bleeding that reveals itself in black stools.
If you have any concerns about a possible complication, it's always best to contact your GI doctor right away.
Important Reminder: This information is only intended to provide guidance, not definitive medical advice. Please consult a doctor about your specific condition. Only trained, experienced doctors like our doctors can determine an accurate diagnosis and proper treatment.
As best in class NYC gastroenterologists, our endoscopy NYC doctors provide highly personalized and comprehensive care. Their philosophies regarding the doctor/patient relationship is based on trust and has earned them some of the most respected reputations in NYC.
For more information about an upper endoscopy in NYC or to schedule an endoscopy appointment with one of our GI doctors, please contact our Midtown or Upper East Side NYC offices.

The science fiction adventure trilogy with a supernatural edge featuring the space heroine, Hickory Lace. Includes the three separate books The Alien Corps, Rise of the Erlachi, and The Scarf.
Fans of The Foundation Trilogy, Dune, and Ringworld will love Prosperine. Three books in one super value volume.
The people on the planet Prosperine are unlike any others in the galaxy. Prosperine didn't have an extinction event, so dinosaur-like creatures continued to rule…and evolve. But in 2179 of the modern era, the Avanauri look human—more or less—but they do hatch from eggs. So it comes as a shock when one of the locals is reported to be performing miracles.
The Alien Corps' Hickory Lace and her crew, space pilot Jess Parker and the young genius Gareth Blanquette, arrive on Prosperine to check out the situation, but all is not as it seams. Interplanetary politics, a bloody revolution, alien mercenaries, a mystic known as "the Teacher," and a sword with supernatural powers are just a few of the things they must deal with. Explosive and unexpected, the story develops with each book to reach its dramatic conclusion.
Included in Prosperine: The Adventures of the Space Heroine Hickory Lace
- Book 1: The Alien Corps
- Book 2: Rise of the Erlachi
- Book 3: The Scarf
If you enjoy epic science fiction with a touch of the supernatural and a strong female lead, then you'll love this captivating story by PJ McDermott.

Project Description
A short story about a unique event for the local community
The University of Surrey's Department of Music & Media brought together 90 musicians from the local area to join forces with the University Orchestra, to rehearse and perform Stravinsky's Rite of Spring … in just one day. It was conducted by Russell Keable, one of the country's most exciting and versatile musicians.
We used two roaming cameras and three fixed cameras to capture the rehearsal and performance from every angle, and we filmed comments from Russel Keable, as well as local musicians. Some musicians had not played for a number of years and came along to "give it a go".
The University is delighted with how the video captures the enthusiam and atmopshere of the day, and powerfully demonstrates how the University is making a difference in the surrounding communities. We are now producing promotional videos for four degree courses for the Department of Music & Media.

Most British women 'not fit for childbearing' due to obesity, boozing and smoking
Potential mums-to-be lacked key nutrients in their diet for a healthy pregnancy
MOST British women are not fit enough to have kids and need to overhaul their lifestyle before starting a family, experts warn.
Researchers found 96 per cent of those of childbearing age lacked key nutrients in their diet for a healthy pregnancy.
Half were overweight or obese, increasing the risk of conditions such as diabetes in pregnancy and birth complications.
Many mums-to-be are damning their kids to a lifetime of illness by waiting until they conceive to address their boozing, smoking and poor diet — habits highlighted by TV comedy characters Wayne and Waynetta Slob.
Medics say dads must shape up too. They warn unhealthy habits can damage eggs and sperm, and affect the development of the unborn tot.
A series of studies in medical journal The Lancet say parents are upping their child's risk of conditions including heart disease, osteoporosis and diabetes by being out of shape before they conceive.
Experts said GPs and nurses should quiz women in their 20s and 30s about their plans to start a family, so they can relay advice.
Teens must also be told being healthy before conception is crucial.
Lead researcher Prof Judith Stephenson from University College London said couples should not wait until pregnancy to "radically overhaul" their lifestyle.

LOS ANGELES — A city councilman took the first step toward crafting a ballot measure that would ask voters to decide whether Los Angeles police officers facing disciplinary action should have the option of putting their fates in the hands of a panel of civilians, rather than a board consisting of top department officials who answer to the police chief.
A motion introduced by City Council President Herb Wesson, and seconded by Councilmen Joe Buscaino and Curren Price, calls for staffers to report back on "options for a May 2017 ballot measure" that would make changes to the city charter to give officers the ability to go before an all-civilian board.
The Los Angeles Police Protective League, the union representing rank-and-file officers, has been in talks with the council president and the mayor's office over the past several months about changing the police department's disciplinary review process.
Union spokesman Dustin DeRollo told City News Service the idea behind the civilian-only board is that its members would "have essentially no vested interest in the department," making the option potentially a "fairer way to do things."
There is a perception that given their role in the department, command staff may have conflicts of interest when doling out discipline.
The union's president, Craig Lally, said the Board of Rights system is "archaic" and there are not many other cities in the country that have captains or other command-level officials sitting on such disciplinary panels.
The department's system "has been broken probably for 50 years and officers perceive it as unfair," and "pretty much corrupted," he said.
Critics of civilian panels say non-law-enforcement members potentially lack expertise in police work and may actually be more lenient. But Lally maintained that civilian members are fairer, and will "listen to the evidence — there's no personalities involved."
"Obviously, they're never going to know the officer or have contact with the officer," and there is "nobody who can potentially call the civilian and say 'Hey, we want these guys fired,' like the chief, who has the ability to do that," he said.
The change to a civilian system would not necessarily take the disciplinary system into entirely unfamiliar territory, according to Lally, since there is an existing pool of civilians who sit on the current Board of Rights panel. Many of the civilian members are lawyers, Lally said.
The department's existing disciplinary process has long been a contentious issue, with promises to change the system a common refrain among candidates who run for the union's board of directors.
While the union's efforts to change the disciplinary process has long had the support of city leaders, including Mayor Eric Garcetti, the idea for the civilian panel did not gain "traction" until the union filed a lawsuit against the city in May, according to Lally.
That lawsuit alleged that Chief Charlie Beck has undue influence on the command members of the Board of Rights, which consists of two top-ranking police officials and one civilian member.
In their lawsuit, union officials proposed that the Board of Rights panel should consist entirely of civilian members. They referred to the examples of four lawsuits filed by police captains who contend they were retaliated against for disagreeing with Beck's disciplinary recommendations.
According to Wesson's motion, a ballot measure would ask voters whether officers should be given the option of being reviewed by a panel made up entirely of civilian members. The proposed alternative to the Board of Rights would be in place for three years, during which its "effectiveness, fairness, transparency" and other "factors" would be assessed, according to the motion.
If the council moves forward with the motion at a future meeting, the chief legislative analyst would be asked to work with the city attorney and the city administrative officer to return in 15 days with a report on the potential ballot measure.

Chapter LXVIII. Concerning the Identity of Mr. Bimby's Guest
It needed but a glance at the huddled figure in the comfortless little attic to assure Barnabas of the identity of Mr. Bimby's "poor young friend"; wherefore, setting down the candle on the broken table, he crossed the room and touched that desolate figure with a gentle hand.
Then Ronald Barrymaine looked up and, seeing Barnabas, struggled to his knees:
"Beverley!" he exclaimed, "oh, thank God! You'll save her from that d-devil――I tried to kill him, b-but he was too quick for me. But you――you'll save her!"
"What do you mean? Is it Cleone? What do you mean――speak!" said Barnabas, beginning to tremble.
"Yes, yes!" muttered Barrymaine, passing a hand across his brow. "Listen then! Chichester knows――he knows, I tell you! He came to me, three days ago I think――while D-Dig was out, and he talked and talked, and questioned me and questioned me, and s-so I――I told him everything――everything! But I had to, Beverley, I had to――he made me――yes he, Jasper Gaunt. So I told C-Chichester everything and then――he laughed, and I t-tried to k-kill him, but he got away and left me alone with――him. He's always near me now――always c-close behind me where I can't quite s-see him, only sometimes I hear him ch-choke, oh, my God, Beverley!――like he did――that night! I r-ran away to escape him but――oh Beverley!――he's followed me, he was here a moment ago――I heard him, I t-tell you! Oh, Beverley, don't l-look as if you thought me m-mad, I'm not! I'm not! I know it's all an illusion, of c-course, but――"
"Yes," said Barnabas gently, "but what of Cleone?"
"Cleone? Oh, God help me, Beverley, she's going to g-give herself to that devil――to buy his silence!"
"What――what," stammered Barnabas. "What do you mean?"
"I got this to-day――read it and see!" said Barrymaine and drew from his bosom a crumpled letter. Then Barnabas took it, and smoothing it out, read these words:
Ronald dear, I'm sorry I didn't let you kiss me good-by. So sorry that I am going to do all that a woman can to save you. Mr. Chichester has learned your awful secret, and I am the price of his silence. So, because of my promise to our dying mother, and because life can hold nothing for me now, because life and death are alike to me now, I am going to marry him to-night, at his house at Headcorn. Good-by, Ronald dear, and that God may forgive and save you in this life and hereafter, is the undying prayer of
Your Sister,CLEONE.
Barnabas refolded the letter and, giving it back to Barrymaine, took out Natty Bell's great silver watch.
"It is a long way to Headcorn," said he, "I must start at once!"
"Ah! You'll g-go then, Beverley?"
"Go? Of course!"
"Then, oh Beverley, whatever happens――whether you're in time or no, you'll――k-kill him?"
"I think," said Barnabas, putting away his watch, "yes, I think I shall."
"The house is called Ashleydown," continued Barrymaine feverishly, "a b-big house about a m-mile this side the village."
"Ashleydown? I think I've heard mention of it before. But now, you must come with me, Smivvle is downstairs, you shall have my rooms to-night."
"Thanks, Beverley, but do you m-mind――giving me your arm? I get f-faint sometimes――my head, I think, the faintness came on me in the s-street to-night, and I f-fell, I think."
"Indeed, yes, sir," added Mr. Bimby with a little bow, "it was so I found you, sir."
"Ah, yes, you were kind to me, I remember――you have my g-gratitude, sir. Now, Beverley, give me your arm, I――I――oh, God help me!" Barrymaine reached out with clutching fingers, swayed, twisted sideways and would have fallen, had not Barnabas caught him.
"Poor boy!" cried Mr. Bimby, "a fit, I think――so very young, poor boy! You'll need help, sir. Oh, poor boy, poor boy!" So saying, the little gentleman hurried away and presently returned with John and Mr. Smivvle. Thus, between them, they bore Ronald Barrymaine downstairs and, having made him as comfortable as might be in the inner room, left him to the care of the faithful Mr. Smivvle.
Then Barnabas crossed to the narrow window and stood there a while, looking down at the dim figures of the Bow Street Runners who still lounged against the wall in the gathering dusk and talked together in gruff murmurs.
"John," said he at last, "I must trouble you to change coats with me." Peterby slipped off the garment in question, and aided Barnabas to put it on.
"Now, your fur cap, John."
"Sir," said Peterby all anxiety in a moment, "you are never thinking of going out, tonight――it would be madness!"
"Then mad am I. Your cap, John."
"But――if you are arrested――"
"He will be a strong man who stays me tonight, John. Give me your cap."
So Peterby brought the fur cap and, putting it on, Barnabas pulled it low down over his brows and turned to the door. But there Peterby stayed him.
"Sir," he pleaded, "let me go for you."
"No," said Barnabas, shaking his head.
"Then let me go with you,"
"Impossible, John."
"Because," answered Barnabas, grim-lipped, "tonight I go to ride another race, a very long, hard race, and oh, John Peterby――my faithful John, if you never prayed before――pray now, that I may win!"
"Sir," said Peterby, "I will!"
Then Barnabas caught his hand, wrung it, and striding from the room, hurried away down the dark and narrow stair.
