Hey, today, I'm going to be telling you about some of the signs you want to be looking for that indicate your ex still loves you and wants you back.
First of all, you should know that if your relationship with this ex was even remotely serious, if you were together for more than a few months,
I can guarantee you that they do still have feelings for you. To a certain extent, they still do miss you. They still do love, to a certain degree. The question is whether that those feelings are strong enough that they actually want you back. That's what we're going to be looking at this video, signs that indicate that. I should also warn you, you don't want to over analyze too much. Don't spend the rest of your life just trying to read meaning into places where there probably isn't anything to be read into. It's not going to help you get over your ex and it really isn't useful. Don't over analyze.
Also, I am going to give you a link to this at the end of the post. Let's get on to it. Let's look at some of the signs that indicate that your ex wants you back.
One of the first signs you want to be looking for that indicate your ex wants you back, is pretty obvious, and that's if they contact you.
If your ex is reaching out to you, especially if they're doing it regularly, if they're sending you messages or calling you daily, that's a very strong signal.
Of course, it's a lot less strong if they're calling you once a month since the breakup. That's less strong. Certainly, if your ex is reaching out to you actively without you initiating any contact on your side, then that's definitely a signal.
Also, in addition to the frequency of this contact, the way they're contacting you can also be a signal. If your ex is phoning you, dropping by your house, these are things that are stronger indications of interest than simply a text message, a Facebook message there.
Another thing you want to think about is, if they are contacting you, what are they talking about?
What's the topics of conversation that you and your ex are having when they contact you? Are they concerned about you? Are they asking about you and trying to stay up to date on your life? Do they genuinely seem interested or is it simply all about paying unpaid bills or dealing with getting back their shoes from your house?
Whatever it is, think about the nature of the conversations and if it's more sincere and they really genuinely seem to still care about you during these conversations, that's obviously a stronger sign.
Also, if your ex asks to meet up. If they want to physically want to meet up and hang out with you, that is a very good sign, at least to some degree, that they're still interested in you, that they're still thinking about you, and that they want to be around you.
Another sign to look out for is, if your ex asks you to be friends. If they reach out to you and say, "Let's stay friends." First of all, this is something I don't recommend, but if they do ask that, it is a good sign and it does mean that they are afraid of losing you from their life completely.
They don't want to let go. They're still some emotional connection there and they want retain you in their life, at least to some degree. That's a good sign.
Similarly, along the same lines of friends, if you and your ex share mutual friends, if you had a shared social circle, and if you find that your ex is asking about you or talking about you to these mutual friends, then that's a very good indication that, not only are you on your ex's mind, but you're on your ex's mind enough that they're actually bringing you up with friends and talking about it.
If you do hear that through the grapevine from mutual friends, that's another good sign that they're still thinking about you and interested in you.
Another thing is, when your ex contacts you, and if we assume that they are contacting you, if they bring up things like inside jokes, shared positive memories that no one else will understand or if they actively say, "I miss you," or they throw out sexual innuendos, these are things that you need to be thinking about and looking for in their context.
Especially bringing up things that are happy memories that you shared together that no one else knows, they show that your ex is nostalgic to some degree and missing these certain elements of your relationship and wanting to bring them up and think about them again. That's a good sign.
Finally, this is going to seem a little obvious, but if they flirt and they touch you a lot, if there's a lot of … Generally, things that they wouldn't do with members of the opposite sex, but they're doing them with you when you're in person, you're seeing your ex.
Obviously, that's a great sign and it does indicate that they're still thinking of you as possibly more than a friend.
Another very strong indicator that your ex is still interested and possibility wants to get back together, is jealousy. This is one that you're definitely going to want to be looking for.
As it mentioned in Ex Factor Guide Program, it's something that will really help you get your ex back and that's jealousy.
If your ex seems jealous when you're doing pretty much anything, hanging out with people of the opposite sex. If they find out that you've been on dates. If they see you posting new pictures on social media of you with other men or other women.
Whatever it is, if your ex is jealous, it's a clear indication that they still are holding on to that romantic or that connection and they haven't let go. Jealousy is a very strong signal to look for that indicates that your ex is potentially interested in getting back together.
Finally, this one's a little bit more ambiguous, if your ex seems particularly depressed, distraught, heartbroken.
All the breakup emotions, if they seem amplified or they seem to last longer than you would have expected in your ex, if your ex seems particularly distraught, if they come to you crying, things like that.
If they just generally don't seem to be handling the break up well, that's a strong signal that they may want to get back together or certainly they're having second thoughts about their decision to break up with you.
That's about it for this post.
There's lots of other signs that your ex still in love with you, you can be looking for, but probably the best way to figure out whether your ex wants you back or not, is to check out The Ex Factor Guide program.

Oct. 13-15, 2015, online poll. p. 5, Asked of "Republicans and Lean Republican," +/-3.2 pts.
10/16/15, "NBC News Survey Monkey"
"The NBC News Online Poll was conducted online by SurveyMonkey October 13-15, 2015 among a national sample of 4,898 adults aged 18 and over. Respondents for this non-probability survey were selected using an algorithm from among the nearly three million people who take surveys on the SurveyMonkey platform each day. Data for this survey have been weighted for age, race, sex, education, and region using the Census Bureau's American Community Survey to reflect the demographic composition of the United States. Because the sample is based on those who initially self-selected for participation rather than a probability sample, no estimates of sampling error can be calculated. All surveys may be subject to multiple sources of error, including, but not limited to sampling error, coverage error, and measurement error.
Polls conducted in one day may include additional error due to the limited time period that panelists have to respond to and complete the survey. To assess the variability in the estimates and account for design effects, we create a bootstrap confidence interval to produce an error estimate, meaning we use the weighted data to generate 5000 independent samples and calculate the 95% confidence intervals for the weighted average. When analyzing the survey results and their accuracy, this error estimate should be taken into consideration in much the same way that analysis of probability polls takes into account the margin of sampling error."...

Come to Ukraine: sun, sea and legalised tyranny
As an investor, I've seen the best and worst of the Euro 2012 host, but I won't give up on it
The European Championship is usually a chance to show the world your best side and bask in sympathetic international media attention. Not so Ukraine. The pre-publicity has already fixed it in the public mind as a place of corrupt politicians, absurd prices, violent policemen and racist football gangs.
This is not a good return on the almost ten billion pounds the state invested preparing for the tournament — and nor is it entirely a fair one.
For almost 15 years I have been a major investor in the country. During that time governments have illegally seized my assets, I have seen court judgments ignored, and even had the police launch a spurious raid against my business. Despite this I am not ready to write off

How do Baby Shark, cows, and hand foot mouth all relate? Lemme tell ya.
Yesterday Cook was real sick. Puked all over me. Wouldn't be put down. Only wanted Mama. That kinda sick.
This morning at 5:30 we woke up and he was miraculously better. Happy baby, we listened to Baby Shark on my parents' patio no less than 50 times. And he danced and danced.
I went to change his diaper to get ready to go to the zoo, and noticed his "chigger bites" from two days ago we're much worse. Dark red and oozy. It was time to take him in.
Hand foot mouth is the diagnosis, which is a viral infection. Very contagious. Guess who's also in for the same weekend? My niece and nephew. Quarantine time.
Because there is nothing we can do other than topical treatments, we went to the zoo. Cook ate a cheeseburger and was awarded some new toys for all his toil. Boy deserves the whole gift shop.
Fast forward past naps, the family has gone out to the cabin and C and I remain at the house. He's down for the night early because he's had a big day, and I'm on the patio enjoying a glass of wine. Grape Creek Vineyard for the win. The property next to my parents holds about 30 head of cattle and they're right next to our fence. Longing for home and my own cattle, I walk barefoot over to the fence. 53 and I make an instant connection. She wants to eat out of my hand, even lets me touch her nose, but then runs away. Her playfulness sparks joy in me, and the simplicity of the country makes me thankful. I'm reminded to count my blessings; that of a healthy, happy baby, that of a loving family that supports me through the rough patches, that of a husband that has answered every FaceTime and phone call today. All of them. Simplicity is often the answer to life's ailments. Overwhelmed? Simplify. Stressed? Simplify.
Cook is healthy, and CC and I had the chance to talk more today than when I'm home. Life is good. And simple.

Service: 615-251-8430
Parts: 615-251-8440
Phone: 615-251-8400
We purchased a car from Beaman, or so we thought we did. today, after we have made numerous inquiries about our new loan we are told we need to bring the car back, 4 weeks later!? We were never told of any problems during the four weeks. Last week I phoned but was assured it was in the dealerships best interest to get it done. And the only reason we found out was we called after our old finance company called and stated that our trade-in had not been paid off yet. My credit with toyota financial ( yes I am already a customer) now has a negative mark that I have to remove. I am embrarrased I have changed my insurance and bought accessories for this vehicle. After a month I never thought anyone would want it back. My family has owned 7 toyotas in 3 years. I will never buy one again
I discovered that the automobile, a 2008 Toyota Camry, which my daughter drives has 4 (four) very rusty rims. I reported this to Beamon Toyota who gave her 3 Rims and informed her that she must buy the fourth rim. Then they told her that she must pay someone to have them put on her automobile. My daughter just had a baby and she cannot afford this extra expense. There should not even be rusty rims like this on a 2008 Toyota Camry. This car was supposed to be new when we brought it but it appears like a car which had been sitting in a flood water zone. I wonder if it was ran on a car fax check would it show up as having been in a flood zone. Is this a car that Beamon Toyota fixed up from a flood zone and then sold it us a new car?
I filed a complaint with Toyota, they informed my daughter that she would have buy the fourth rim and that she would have to pay someone to put the rims on for her. I simply want the right thing done for my daughter who just had a baby and cannot afford all of these extra expenses which Beaman Toyota in Nashville, Tennessee is putting on her.

Do Multiple Audiences Mean Tripled Content Efforts?
How can you have a consistent brand voice and story, but appeal to different types of audiences? How do you do it when you have limited time and resources?
Once you complete your audience analysis and core messaging priorities, both integral parts of your content strategy, you may be asking yourself a questions like these, too. Here's a place to start:
1. Determine Your Audience Types
My clients are communicating with many audience types, including:
- Partners or Vendors/Service Providers/Clients or Customers
- Buyers/Sellers
- Patients/Caregivers/Doctors/Medical Staff
- Students from different generations, cultures, countries, and languages/Paying Parents/Supporting Faculty and Staff
- Customers/Media/Investors/Potential Employees
- Lawyers/Professional Speakers/Legal Bars and Associations
- Beer Lovers/Wine Drinkers/Craft Cocktail Makers
Write down your audience types, then put them in priority order. If they are equally important to your business, consider these factors:
- Who needs and will access the content the most often?
- Which group is bigger?
- Which group is more able to navigate to the content that's most meaningful to them?
As an example, look at eBay. Buyers and sellers are equally important. But Buyers is the larger group. And the seller is motivated to find the information that's just for them, so they will. Buyers is the priority group for messaging architecture purposes.
Another example: Cleveland Clinic. Patients are a priority, yes? But so are partnering medical professionals and staff. But patients is the larger group, and medical professionals and career seekers can easily scan to find information for them.
2. Consider the Topic
Let's say you are creating an email or enterprise web content for an energy services company. Your biggest audience is commercial businesses, but you need to build up your vendor partners first. Who's the primary audience then? You need to know, because your audience helps you decide what you talk about.
The answer is the commercial businesses. Vendor partners still want to first see what you're selling them, after all. Then, they'll seek out information that's just for them. Here are a few options to consider:
- Allow for self-selection. Make sure your audiences can choose a path that's right for them.
- Make sure that path is available from any and everywhere, even if they drop in in the middle.
- Be very clear who you are speaking to, for example, with blog posts. Create categories for each audience type, if that's most appropriate. (E.g., don't switch intended audiences from post to post without warning.)
- Send a vendor-targeted email to a vendor-specific page. Send commercial-business-targeted emails to commercial-audience pages.
- Leverage stand-alone landing pages to test and tweak for different audiences.
- When writing for "everyone," think about the commercial (primary) business first. Then go back and read the same piece while imagining you're a potential vendor. Clear up any confusions.
3. Keep Your Voice Consistent
Let's say you have three different products and three different targeted audiences for each one: wine-drinkers, beer-enthusiasts, and cocktail-lovers. You've determined that beer drinkers want a playful, edgy voice. Wine drinkers want something more sophisticated. And cocktail lovers want a blend of both. Try to prioritize first by considering:
- Which one is the largest audience?
- Which one needs your content the most?
- Which one is most lucrative to you now?
- Which has the most revenue potential in the future?
Can you prioritize them? If so, think about the first priority when you're writing. Just remember, your brand voice — essentially your personality — should be consistent no matter who you're talking to.
Then, as you're communicating about each product type, consider changing your tone as needed. Your brand voice won't change, but if you're talking about wine, for example, try using a more sophisticated tone. Think of it as the difference between raising your voice in a bar to be heard, and speaking in hushed tones while someone is playing piano. Same personality, different situation.
4. Think Regional, Cultural, and Local
Content planning really gets sticky when you're targeting an audience in a specific location or of a specific culture, but you still want the content to appeal to other cultures and places. For example, let's say you're in higher education with an online and traditional university campus in California, and you'd like to attract more students from Japan (a secondary audience). Here are some things to keep in mind:
- Different cultures react differently to marketing and advertising efforts. Hire a cultural expert and create targeted landing pages, ads, or micro-sites just for them.
- Create a section of the site or category that caters to the culture or place, and make it easy for them to self-select content that applies to them.
- Ask your cultural expert to review your primary content to help remove any cultural complexities or potential misunderstandings.
- Group cultures or places into broader categories that might all have similar needs, behaviors, and goals.

Do you have an older Apple computer that you no longer use and want to sell? Are you unsure about how to go about selling it?
The following are some tips and information that you need to know if you own an older Mac computer that you want to sell for a good price.
Putting Things into Motion
The first thing you need to know about selling your used Mac computer is that there is a vibrant second-hand Market for purchasing Apple products. Apple has a name that is well respected around the world and any product that bears its name is in high demand whether it is new or used.
iPhone is sold used around the world and is some of the most widely coveted used products manufactured by Apple. Even the older iPods that only play music are still very popular and command great prices in many countries around the world.
The top of the line Mac products which include laptops and desktop computers are probably the most sought-after Apple products anywhere. When purchased new, they are very expensive and unavailable to a large part of the population. Many people only look for used Mac products because they know that they will receive a quality product that is within an affordable budget for their needs.
They also know that because of the high-quality parts and build that Apple puts into its Mac products, buying a used Mac that has been properly serviced is as good as purchasing a new Mac. Additionally, because Apple is great at making sure that all the computers can utilize its current software, purchasing a used Mac will allow them to use the latest upgrades.
When you look to sell your used Mac, you can typically find high-quality resellers to purchase from you. If you live in the United Kingdom, you can get cash for your Mac from many of the UK's great Mac resellers. Do your research first on what prices you can expect for your used Mac and then approach these companies and choose the best offer. But before you do so, there are a few things you need to make sure of regarding your Mac.
Preparing Your Mac for Sale
You should make sure that it looks its best, and that all of your data and important connections are disabled on the computer.
Clean it Up
Before you sell your Mac make sure that you clean it with a damp cloth. Clean the inside including the screen, keys, and the trackpad. Also, run the damp cloth around the outside of the computer. If you are selling a desktop you should do the same and also use a small vacuum to take out any dust or dirt that might have gotten into the unit.
Delete and Reformat
Before you sell your Mac, you need to make sure that all of your current data on that computer is deleted. First, make a backup of all of the files on the computer in case you might need them in the future. Use a portable hard drive to do this. Now that you have all your data saved somewhere else, delete all your files on the hard drive.
Next, you should sign out from iTunes, iCloud and any of the services where your computer has stored your login information. The next step is to unpair your computer with any Bluetooth devices. Finally, reformat the hard-drive on the computer. The goal is to leave no trace of yourself on the computer so that anyone buying the used computer will not be able to cause you any problems.
Once you've completed these steps, you should have a clean and reformatted used Mac computer. Now you can sell your computer and do something nice for yourself with the money you make.

Wondering how to eliminate oil when sauteing? This episode will show you how...and why! One tablespoon of oil contains 120 calories and 100% of those calories come from fa!. Plus, the amount of micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) found in oil is minimal...especially when compared to the whole food version. But who needs oil when you can saute in water, vegetable broth, coconut water, juice, beer, or wine and never miss the flavor (or the fat)?!
Try out this easy Saucy Glazed Mushrooms recipe from the talented and hilarious Chef AJ's book Unprocessed. These end up in her famous Disappearing Lasagna by the way! For more information about low fat eating, check out my book, The Complete Idiot's Guide to Plant-Based Nutrition.

I've found what appears to be a bug with the latest firmware version V2.01.06 for this router.
It causes the DHCP IP reservation feature to stop working, leaving any devices listed in the MAC address section unable to contact the DHCP server at all.
I've had my router replaced once already, and the firmware that came on the device V2.01.03 DIDN'T have this problem with DHCP, but I had not made the link when I proceeded to upgrade the router to the latest version.
My question is does anyone have a copy of the old firmware version (2.01.03) which I can put back on my router, until such time as Linksys fix the bug?
Any help would be appreciated.

I'm 5'3", 128 lbs and I have menorrhagia (very heavy period). I experience maybe 2-3 days of heavy flow and I definitely needed a cup with capacity and comfort. The Large Fleurcup finally did the job! I didn't leak at night (but did wake up in time to feel bubbling so I was able to get up to empty it. I slept on my back and briefly on my side.) I spot a bit throughout the day, but I guess that's normal. I use a back-up reusable pad. No worries there. (I love Pink Lemonade's minky line. Easy to clean!)
This time around, I no longer experience surprise gushing or leaking due to a full cup. Now, I can kinda feel a slight bubbling which alarms me enough before an overflow happens. I find that I have to empty it once every 2-3 hours on my heavy days. 2-3 times a day on lighter days.
I cut off the stem for comfort and I love the size of the body! It's rounder in the base than other cups I've tried (Diva, Yuuki) which seems to help during times my cervix might be sitting in the cup. I love that the cup has large air holes -- I assume this helps with the helpful bubbling warnings I get which has prevented leaking so far. :) And another 10 points for the prominent finger grips on the base. Very handy for pulling the cup out. The shape of the rim is rather nice, too. It's seamless, sloping edge definitely feels more comfortable when inserted. It doesn't feel like it scrapes the sides of my vaginal wall.
I especially love how soft it is. It's squishier than a Diva. My only complaint is that it seems to be stubborn at popping open when I use the punch-down method, but it's nothing major. It eventually does with a little push & pull action. Since it is a size Large, I DO feel its pressure on my bladder, but I'm willing to look past it because it keeps my flow in check.
So, for now, I'm happy! Thanks!
I do have my Yuukis for sale if anyone is interested. --> http://mc-sales.livejournal.com/151914.html

Building the business case for investing in customer service
According to the Institute of Customer Service, 70% of roles in the UK are customer related.
At the end of last month, the Institute of Customer Service published a groundbreaking research report - the result of the largest study of its kind ever undertaken - that examined how sustained service strategies impact organisational performance.
The report, entitled 'The Customer Service Dividend: How organisations have achieved ROI and greater productivity', analyses the customer satisfaction performance of 124 UK companies using data going back to 2008 from the UK Customer Satisfaction Index (UKCSI) mapped against a number of key financial metrics.
- Organisations with customer satisfaction at least one point higher than their sector average achieved average annual turnover growth of 9.1%, versus flat growth for those with lower satisfaction.
- Over a longer period of time, the growth held true. Over three years there was a 5.3% compound turnover growth and after 8 years, 4.7%. Those with a lower-than-average customer satisfaction score achieved 0.4% growth year-on-year and just 3.5% across a five to eight-year period.
- The average revenue per employee for organisations with higher than average sector customer satisfaction is over £550,000 (£552,409) compared to less than £260,000 (£257,614) for those with lower than average sector customer satisfaction. A difference of 114%.
- Where an organisation outperforms its competitor set in its customer satisfaction scores, it will outperform them in revenue growth too.
- Where organisations see customer satisfaction as a key part of their strategic change or transformation programmes, they are more likely to see a consistently strong performance in terms of customer satisfaction. The suggestion is that where Boards focus on service strategies, satisfaction and employee engagement, there is a real – and sustainable - difference to the bottom line.
- Organisations that improved customer satisfaction to at least the level of the sector average registered typical turnover growth of 9.6%. For those that had fallen below the average in their sector, typical growth was only 1.8%.
The full report can be obtained here.
If you're building a case within your organisation for the areas of investment that will be the most beneficial in raising levels of customer satisfaction, we can help.

Check out these very New England wearable flowers by Sayles Livingston. She uses all fresh flowers and attaches them with hot glue. I love that her look is so defined.

Very INFORMATIVE and just FANTASTIC! I was looking for the related information. Thanks a lot it is very useful for me. Would love to read some pieces on the topic.

That's very nice of you to talk about this. Not many bloggers try to discuss about this, simply because they consider it too personal or want to keep their opinion for themselves only
7/1/2013 09:27:04 pm
It is for the first time that I am hearing about these wearable flowers. This is awesome and it comes in different shapes and sizes. Now we can call them the flower girls. Thank you for sharing this photos and idea. Good luck.

Torchwood The Dead Line
John Barrowman, Eve Myles and Gareth David-Lloyd star in a full-cast radio adventure based on the hit BBC series
When a Cardiff hospital is inundated with patients that have fallen into coma-like trances, Torchwood move in to investigate. They find that the trances were triggered by phone calls, all of which were made from a number that hadn't been active for over 30 years.
Determined to find out who's been calling the unfortunate victims, Jack rings the mysterious number — two, zero, five, nine — nothing. It's a dead line. Until it calls Jack back, he answers — and falls into a deep trance…
With the help of one of Jack's old girlfriends, eminent neuroscientist Stella Courtney, the team have to race against time to find the source of the 'infection' and save the patients…
Written specially for BBC Radio by Phil Ford, The Dead Line stars John Barrowman as Captain Jack Harkness, Eve Myles as Gwen Cooper and Gareth David-Lloyd as Ianto Jones.
The Dead Line was an original BBC Radio 4 audio play. It was broadcast the week prior to series three of Torchwood.
Rhys says that Captain Jack is similar to Captain Scarlet in that they both cannot die.
The Cardiff Rift is capable of interfering with weather and causing freak meteorological events to occur that others do not foresee.
Stella says that Jack might start dancing, "and you were never John Travolta.""Hey! I was the Saturday Night Fever!"
Rhys recalls the events of Meat and Something Borrowed.
Ianto's comments to the comatose Jack about not expecting to live very long foreshadows his fate in Children of Earth.
Rhys and Gwen discuss buying a new home; this leads into Children of Earth: Day One which shows Rhys in the process of house-hunting.

Topical Area: Nutrition Education and Behavioral Science
Objectives : EFNEP helps low-income audiences acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to plan, procure, and prepare nutritionally sound diets. The study objective was to determine EFNEP participants' change in HEI-2005 scores in 2013-2014.
Methods :
This study was a secondary analysis of the 24 hour recall (24HR) data collected from EFNEP participants from October 2012 - September 2014. EFNEP staff entered entry/exit 24HR data into a web-based data evaluation program using the Food and Nutrient Database for Dietary Studies (version 3.0). Initial data set (n=135,021) was cleaned (n=122,961) and categorical variables established for demographic predictor variables of interest (n=97,522). Statistical analysis was performed using the car and lsmeans packages. In addition, linear models including age group, education, gender, race/ethnicity and entry HEI-2005 score were used. To account for testing multiple components, a Bonferonni adjusted ANOVA F-test was calculated.
Results : The mean (sd) HEI scores were 51.1 (13.7) at entry and 56.5 (13.7) at exit, with a change of 5.4 (16.7) after completion of the program (p < 0.05); nine of 12 component scores increased. The change in HEI-2005 scores was significantly greater as age increased, with increasing education, and in women. Thirty-two percent of the HEI score increase was due to increased fruit intake, 17% from increased vegetable intake, 17% from increased intake of "milk" and 20% due to decreased intakes of solid fats, alcohol and added sugar (increase in this component score reflects a decreased intake). Three component scores slightly decreased over the program - total grains, oils, and sodium (decrease in sodium score reflects an increased sodium intake).
Conclusions :
The results reported here are the first known national documentation of change in HEI dietary quality due to EFNEP participation. Results indicate that EFNEP participation improves diet quality based on change in HEI-2005. This improvement was evident in nine of 12 HEI-2005 components and across all demographic characteristics. Results suggest EFNEP improves diets of this vulnerable population, potentially reducing chronic disease risk.

Head Smash
I was practicing karate tonight. I was doing San Ju Wazza (not spelled right. It is Japanese for "30 movements.") The head smash is a horrible move to contemplate. You pull the victim's head into your elbow. In a sense, you use one arm as a knobby club. I don't think I want to get that close to somebody I have to defend myself from. I would rather kick the snot out of them than pull them into me. I hope I never have to use it.

- Service application air pressure on the diaphragm
Air pressure is used to:
- Apply service and release spring park brakes
Brakes convert the energy of motion into:
- Energy of heat
To check the air pressure in a vehicle's air brake system, a driver must:

Trailer spring park brakes are applied automatically when the:
- Trailer air supply valve is closed (pulled out)
The primary service brake circuit is located:
- On the drive axle(s) only
When trailer couples or "glad hands" are cross-connected:
- Spring park brakes will not function correctly
The purpose of the trailer control (hand) valve is to:
- Apply the trailer service brakes
When the brake pedal is pressed, air brakes apply:
- More slowly than hydraulic brakes, as air pressure needs to travel trough the system
An air dryer removes moisture from the air and back flushes it back into the athmosphere when:
- The governor cuts-out the air compressor
In the event of an air system failure, the best procedure is to:
- Hold a steady application of the service brakes until stopped
When traveling on icy roads an air brake equipped vehicle that has properly working Antilock Braking System (ABS) brakes, the brakes should be applied:
- With a firm and steady pressure

Last fall, when the Asheville Area Arts Council chose "Art in Full Color" as its theme for the ninth annual Creative Sector Summit, members of its board of directors knew they needed to include as many people of color as possible in the planning process to best craft a conference focused on equity and inclusion within the creative networks of Buncombe County.
"We took our time to reach out to leaders of color in the arts community to have honest conversations about what they would envision for a conference like this," says Janelle Wienke, AAAC interim executive director. "With their help and the help of AAAC volunteers, we picked a great lineup of local leaders who are really putting in the work to make a more equitable community."
Among the figures presenting on their varied gains on Friday, May 17, at the Dr. Wesley Grant Sr. Southside Center, are grant recipients of AAAC's Arts Build Community program. Created in 2017 along with an organizational equity statement, the grant program funds what Wienke calls "innovative, arts-based ideas that inspire diverse groups of participants to be more active, involved and civically engaged by creating together." In the program's inaugural year, she says, the AAAC immediately knew there was a strong desire for funding of this nature; in April, it received quadruple the requests of the previous year.
The individual 2019-20 Arts Build Community grant awards of $1,000 each went to BeLoved Asheville for an outside gallery that amplifies the culture and history of Latinx, indigenous and African American people to be used as an educational hub for youths of color in Asheville; Martha Skinner to facilitate a gathering and sharing among individuals on the autism spectrum, resulting in a collaborative drawing; Nuestro Centro for a cultural arts program that helps children and youths develop a strong sense of cultural identity through Mexican folkloric dance, music, literature and history; the Shiloh Community Association for a series of murals along the Legacy Art Trail to honor important figures from the community's history; and Word on the Street/Voz de los Jovenes to develop, print and distribute a zine to document artistic responses to thematic questions.
"Everyone involved in this conference has an incredible story. We are bringing local government, arts organizations, artists and community organizers together to have a dialogue about the power of arts to create change," Wienke says.
"All of their experiences are so different and powerful, but by sharing openly and truthfully, we can have discussions that can really make a difference. Not only do I think that some amazing ideas are going to come out of the panels, but if the participants stick around and network with the panelists, there's no end to the possibilities that these discussions can produce."
While having a local emphasis was the AAAC's original intention for the conference, its leaders recognized an opportunity to learn from others doing similar work across the country. In partnership with the Buncombe County Tourism Development Authority, the AAAC was able to bring in Atlanta-based independent consultant Dina Bailey, CEO of Mountain Top Vision, to speak at the opening reception on Thursday, May 16, at the YMI Cultural Center. Through the authority, Bailey is working with Explore Asheville to help facilitate a community-led process to document the heritage of the African American community via the African American Heritage Trail.
Bailey's presentation, "Telling the Whole Story," will include some of her experiences from the communities she's worked with over the years, and both the lessons she's personally learned as well as ones that her collaborators have discovered as they've come together around various projects. She'll also emphasize the complexity of defining what "the whole story" truly means, addressing aspects that influence how stories are told, such as the importance of coming to shared understandings.
"I get to meet community members who are very passionate about why their community is special," Bailey says. "I love being able to hear about a community's strengths and challenges while sharing what I've seen in other places. I think it's often a relief for people to know that they aren't alone — that others are talking about many of the same hopes and concerns for their own communities."
Bailey hopes that the Creative Sector Summit gets participants and attendees thinking about the complex nature of communities and the tremendous good that can come from going beyond one's comfort zones and actively listening to others. Wienke has similar goals for the event, and through the AAAC's initiatives, she and her colleagues believe the arts can be used as a profound catalyst for progress by elevating change agents and untapped talent in the Asheville area.
"At the end of this conference, we want to plan for increased support for underrepresented artists, performers, writers and young artists, and think about how we can retain and attract a diverse creative sector here in Buncombe County," Wienke says. "I know that sounds like a lot, but if we listen carefully to one another and think creatively, we will surely be able to collaborate to support one another in new ways. Together, we can develop ideas to spur long-term changes."
WHAT: The ninth annual Creative Sector Summit
WHERE: YMI Cultural Center, 39 S. Market St.; Dr. Wesley Grant Sr. Southside Center, 285 Livingston St. ashevillearts.com
WHEN: Thursday, May 16, 5:30 p.m. Free with registration; Friday, May 17, 10 a.m.-4 p.m. $25 AAAC members/$35 nonmembers

From me to we: supporting change and transformation with community in the digital workplace by Jakkii Musgrave
With so much focus on digital workplace technology, we have continued to overlook the fundamental element in the digital workplace - the people. And it's becoming more evident: research consistently shows current digital workplace priorities for organizations are dominated by non-technology, people-related issues. Organizations are now playing catch-up, struggling to address challenges like culture, change and the employee experience. Openness, transparency, sharing and collaboration are fundamental in the digital workplace, but does your organization's culture support these behaviors?
Whatever the supporting toolset, the digital workplace is about enabling and empowering people to be effective by creating the conditions for engagement and connecting people to information, knowledge and each other through strategic and effective community management."

I recently returned from Munich and our Aurea Experience 18 held there for our European customers. I was delighted to engage in many meaningful and candid discussions with many customers, and I'm looking forward to more of these in New Orleans at our North American Aurea Experience 18, coming soon in December.
In my last blog post, three of our focus items I mentioned were resolutions times, launching a new customer experience on our portal, and increasing the creation and sharing of knowledge across all of internal Aurea (support, development, services) and you, our customers, through the launch of Knowledge Centered Support (KCS). Here's an update on our progress and what we are continuing to do to improve in each of these areas.
Resolution time is a direct function of product quality (defect count and severity) and the depth of knowledge in all of our Aurea teams (e.g. Support, Development). Let's start with product quality.
The fastest resolution for a support issue is to prevent the issue in the first place! That is why development has been focused on a comprehensive quality framework spanning fixing defects, increasing quality testing, enhancing the underlying quality of the code and ensuring our hosted services stay available. The quality framework initiative will ramp up the correction of high severity issues, add over 10,000 automated tests to the release process to prevent future defects, and add over 30 new monitoring services to hosted components to ensure availability of hosted services. Support will continue to sponsor and advocate for this initiative, because we know how important product quality is and its direct impact on your experience with us.
But support also has to step up its game. Not every issue you raise is a defect and we need to do much better at getting you the relief you need more quickly. One of the main ways we plan to do this is by dramatically increasing the training of our people and via the pending launch of Knowledge Centered Support (KCS).
I mentioned before that KCS is a service delivery method that focuses on knowledge as a key asset of the organization, whereby the use, creation and refinement of knowledge is not secondary, it is integrated directly into the issue prevention and resolution workflow. It puts knowledge at the heart of every interaction, it allows our customers to self-service with speed and convenience, and it allows agents to respond to problems in a continuous learning and improvement cycle - the result is dramatically faster and smarter interactions.
A good number of our agents are now KCS trained and the systems required to support them are being readied for release this month. That means agents will create or refine knowledge in every single issue they encounter, are empowered to quickly and easily share it with you and other agents, and will be surrounded by technology that unifies, aggregates, indexes, scores and evaluates the knowledge to make it available to you in a contextually relevant way. How will you experience this improvement? Both in your self-service capabilities and in the knowledge of our agents managing your issues - both resulting in faster resolution times.
It has been a few months since the Support experience has changed for many Aurea customers and I realize how frustrating those changes were. I mentioned in my last post that we are committed to getting back to a customer experience that meets, and eventually exceeds, your past portal experiences. Our first step in that direction is the launch of a new customer portal experience.
The new experience will be an enhanced way of interacting with us, using Jive for social service in the form of collaboration and community, adding to it our KCS initiative to provide accessible and relevant knowledge via self service, complete with enhanced case management for assisted service.
The initial version of the experience will be made available to our Customer Advisory Board in late November, where we will garner input and adapt. Our current plan is to make it generally available in late December or early January. This is not a static launch. It will be a living, breathing and evolving experience - and we want all of your feedback. Our commitment is to gather it via Aureaworks and work as fast as we can on continuous improvement.
Coming soon in the next 6-8 weeks:
Customer Facing
Internal with Customer Value
Coming Q1
I know we still have lots of work to do on our mission - respond to you quickly, resolve your issues fast, and communicate frequently and transparently at all steps. I strongly believe all of the things mentioned above are supportive of that mission and are moving us in the right direction. I personally will not relent on continuing to improve, and I know that you will continue to hold me and the entire team accountable.
I look forward to your continued feedback and input!
