The developer of a new Sydney high-rise apartment building says he's "stunned" by structural defects which left many residents homeless and insists any blame must placed on the construction company that built the luxury tower.
Up to 3,000 residents were evacuated from Opal Tower and neighboring buildings at Sydney Olympic Park on Christmas Eve after those living in the recently completed building heard and saw cracking in a wall.
While many residents were later able to return home, others were forced to spend Christmas making alternative living arrangements after 51 units in the 38-story building were deemed unsafe.
Developer Ecove released a statement Wednesday where director Bassam Aflak described Opal Tower as a "high quality building."
"Ecove has delivered a project that is well above the industry standard," Mr Aflak said. "The important fact is that there is absolutely no danger for the residents. We're confident this localized issue can be fixed. Most people are now back in their homes."
He reassured residents they were covered under warranty and that the developer would help them through that process.
"We've all been stunned by what's happened, and we've been heartened by the way the community has rallied to support the residents, from the emergency service crews and the Salvation Army, to the local businesses, hotels and other people who have worked through Christmas to help us through this time," Mr Aflak said.
"We, like the residents, are anxious that the builder defines the problem and resolves it as soon as possible."
Daily Mail Australia has contacted the builder Icon for comment.
It's not known when residents from the 51 unsafe units will be able to return home.
Resident Delsa Daryaei told news.com.au her Christmas plans have been ruined.
"We spent all of our money just for two nights in a hotel," Ms Daryaei said. "It's Christmas, when everything is expensive. I've worked all year to have two weeks off, and now I can't do anything."
Top architects are "bewildered" as to how cracks formed in the wall of the brand new tower block on Monday.
Residents said they heard loud cracks coming from the 10th floor through the morning and raised the alarm about 2:45 p.m.
Firefighters and public works engineers found a large crack along an internal support wall after the building moved one to two millimetres.
A photo from inside the building showed a plaster wall collapsed in a heap and a crack down the length of the wall. Yellow tape was on the door handle.
Some residents said the doors to the building were jammed and police had to break them down with heavy equipment to help residents escape.
The cause of the fault in the building, which was completed in March and opened in August, was still unknown, as planning experts slammed the developer.
Urban Taskforce chief executive Chris Johnson said the cracks were "staggering," given the building was essentially brand new.
"It's a bit bewildering to me that something like this could happen. Buildings like that go through all sorts of checks and balances," he told the Sydney Morning Herald.
Mr Johnson said the problem would either be a "fundamental error" in how the building was constructed, or the ground it was built on.
"The only other option is that something underneath the building has changed. That could well create tensions through the structure itself," he said.
Opal Tower was build on reclaimed land that used to be a swamp and is less than 300 meters from another mangrove swamp.
The crisis prompted the NSW Government to urgently investigate "what steps were taken to ensure the structural integrity of that building and other buildings at Olympic Park."
A spokesman for Planning Minister Anthony Roberts said he was "very concerned about the situation with the Opal Tower'.
"Obviously his first concern is the safety of the residents," he said. "He wants to assure the affected residents that this matter is being treated with extreme urgency."
A structural engineer who said he worked as a site inspector during Sydney's building boom in 2015-16 pointed the finger at dodgy business practices.
"I regularly saw poor planning, poor execution, poor workmanship during my limited site inspections, and that's only the parts I was looking at," he wrote on social media. "Several of the projects I've worked on required remedial action during construction due to poor planning and workmanship."
He listed six common problems that stemmed from poor communication during design revisions, corner cutting, and too much time pressure.
The engineer also questioned the propagation of private certifying companies that sign off on projects without public input.
"This whole industry with the private certifying authorities, councils getting kickbacks for developments, it's a mess," he wrote. "I can say there is no one working on any construction project in the residential space that is independent."
The 117-meter Opal tower has 392 apartments over 34 stories along with a childcare center and other businesses and amenities.
Brand new high rise was built alongside numerous other similar blocks in Olympic Park as it transforms into a major population center.
The building was only completed in March and opened in August, and cost $165 million to build by developer Ecove, which built many of the others nearby.
Two-bedroom apartments are on sale for $934,000 and one bedrooms for $620,000.
"Everyone has a vested interest in seeing this thing get built in the quickest way possible. It's frankly disgusting."
However, he believed the issue with Opal Tower was likely not serious – though there could be bigger problems appearing in years to come.
"I think what's happened is that there are structural elements which haven't been grouted or only partially grouted," he said. "The building's not going to fall over because of it but it's not what you would consider serviceable."
Opal Tower was approved by the Planning Department as a "state significant development" in 2015 and certified by a private certifier.
"The private certifier has the original occupation certificate and all related structural, electrical, hydraulic certificates issued by engaged engineers," Parramatta City Council said.
Opal Tower is one of several new apartment towers in Olympic Park and cost $165 million to build.
It was developed by Ecove, which also built many other new towers in the suburb along with One30 Hyde Park tower in the Sydney CBD.
Two-bedroom apartments are on sale for $934,000 and one bedrooms for $620,000.
"We are deeply sympathetic for the concern and anxiety of residents and owners and are actively following up the builder and the builder's engineers to hopefully provide residents and owners with further information," Ecove said.
The tower was designed by architecture firm Bates Smart and built by Icon Construction.

The official Twitter application is just 'OK' to speak the slightest. It acquires the job done, and embraces latest features before any third party Twitter application out there, since it is continued by Twitter itself. But at instants, the application can fling a miserable fit and tends to behave in such a way which is adverse to much. And keeping that extremely same thing in brain, you willll one day run into a issue where the Twitter application will end sending push notifications your manner albeit being turned on from the application itself.

Cell Phones
Cell Phone ServiceWritten by Helen Glenn Court
The key to good cell phone service is getting a signal. Without a good, consistent signal, you can't make and complete a call. Obvious, yes, but you can't assume that because you own a cell phone and have an active plan with a reputable provider you'll always be able to make a call. What matters is how many radio towers the company has across a given area.
After the break up of Ma Bell in 1984, telephone companies have of course proliferated. Now that digital cell phone technology has revolutionized communications, cell phone use has begun competing with land line use. Corporate competition for cell phone service business is stiff. Nationwide vendors include (alphabetically) the recently combined AT&T/Cingular, MCI, Qwest, Sprint, T-mobile and Verizon. The good news is that it is largely a buyer's market--unlike real estate in San Diego, for example.
Checklist for Cell Phone Service Providers
Determining which cell phone service is best for you depends in large part on how you use your phone. For example, let's say that you coordinate academic conferences and travel all over the country for four-day stretches a couple times a month. In this scenario, you'd definitely need a national rather than local service, a generous allotment of prime-time minutes, long distance included, no roaming, and free in-network minutes.
To take another example, let's say you work for yourself at home and travel only periodically and for pleasure. You probably rely on a landline for work. Your cell phone needs will probably be minimal--the odd emergency call, the "I'm on my way but there's a traffic jam ahead" apology, or the "I'll be there in 15 minutes, shall I pick anything up on my way?" question. Ask yourself the needs versus want questions before you start shopping providers.

Savoury comfort foods have always been my weakness, and over the years I've made it my mission to find healthier ways to enjoy some of my favourite dishes, especially when I'm cooking at home. Instead of overdosing on sodium and ingredients that make you regret all of your life decisions as an adult, simple substitutes can help you continue to indulge in your favourite foods without the guilt.
One thing I often crave, but rarely let myself order because of its ridiculous calorie count is Butter Chicken. But, let's be honest, it's not just the Butter Chicken that's to blame when you order in or sit down at your favourite Indian restaurant. No, it's the added sides of fragrant (and butter coated) basmati rice, fresh naan bread, deep-fried pakoras, and the list goes on. At its core, and especially when homemade, Butter Chicken itself is actually not that bad for you, and provides a flavour-packed high-protein dish when you use lean cuts of chicken and high quality dairy products.
When the team at Agropur—Canada's largest diary cooperative and one of the most trusted dairy brands in Canada—approached me about incorporating some of their products into an upcoming post, my mind instantly started flipping through its rolodex of favourite dairy-friendly recipes.
The answer soon became clear: Butter! Freaking! Chicken! Despite its name, some traditional Butter Chicken's ingredients include more yogurt than butter, and I knew this would be the perfect thing to make with iögo's smooth and delicious plain Greek yogurt. Even though this is a 'Greek' yogurt, iögo (and all Agropur products) are made with quality Canadian dairy from Dairy Farmers of Canada that you can feel (extra) good about purchasing because these products help contribute to the Canadian economy. In fact, did you know that thanks to the Agropur dairy cooperative there are 3,290 farmers that contribute to the Canadian economy and more than six billion dollars in sales based on the unique business model of wealth sharing between its members?
As you'll find below, I'm pairing this Healthy Butter Chicken recipe with Cardamom Coconut Flower Rice for a (nearly) Paleo-friendly meal that keep the carb count low and increases your veggie intake. See below for how to make it!
Healthy Butter Chicken Recipe
(serves 4)
What You Need:
For the marinade:
– 1/2 cup iögo plain Greek yogurt
– 3-inch piece of ginger, finally chopped
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tsp dried chili flakes
– 1 tsp ground cumin
– 1 tsp ground turmeric
– 1 tsp garam masala
– juice of 1/2 lemon
– 2 medium sized chicken breasts (approx. 600gr) cubed
For the sauce:
– 2 tbsp Ghee (clarified butter)
– 1 large onion, finely chopped
– 3-inch piece of ginger, finely chopped
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 2 large (or 3 medium) tomatoes, diced
– 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
– 1 tsp fenugreek
– 1/2 tsp garam masala
– 1/4 tsp chili powder
– 2 tbsp tomato puree
– 1 tsp honey (to taste)
– Salt and ground pepper (to taste)
– 1 to 2 tbsp coconut oil (for pan)
– iögo plain Greek yogurt (for serving)
– fresh coriander, roughly chopped (for serving)
What To Do:
– First, combine all the ingredients for the marinade and mix well with the chicken breasts in a large bowl. Cover and leave to marinade in the fridge for at least 30 minutes or over night.
– While your chicken is marinating, melt the ghee in a large pan over medium heat and soften the onions until they become golden brown and soft. Next, add the ginger and garlic, then stir in the chopped tomatoes, spices and tomato puree. Add 300ml of water and simmer for approximately 20 minutes until thickened. At this point you'll want to season with salt, pepper and bit of honey to taste.
– Remove the sauce from the heat and let cool. Transfer to a high-power blend or food processor and blend until smooth. You can also use a hand blender here but be careful of the mess!
– Once blended, return the sauce to the pan and heat over low to medium heat to bring it up to temperature. In a separate pan, heat the coconut oil and add the chicken pieces until they're cooked and slightly browned.
– Once cooked, add the chicken (and what remains of it's yummy marinade in the pan you used to cook the chicken) to the sauce. Mix together and let simmer for about 10 minutes with the lid on.
– Before serving, you can mix in a little extra Green yogurt and fresh coriander, or simply add a dollop of yogurt and coriander to serve.
– To make my Cardamom Coconut Cauliflower Rice, simply add a couple of cardamom pods and a pinch of ground cardamom spice to my classic Paleo Coconut Cauliflower Rice recipe.
Serve and Enjoy!

Commercial businesses are in fact one of the highest energy users in the modern day world. For instance, a business facility can harness a lot of power in lighting up their premises. In fact, this is inevitable as offices require adequate light to operate effectively. Even during the daylight hours we can see business facilities with lights on, resulting in expensive power bills. During this hard economic times, operating a commercial firm can put a lot of stress on the administration. Commercial companies can benefit a lot if they can reduce the power expenses, which is why commercial LED l
Over 40% of power bills in commercial facilities are due to the lighting system. However, this can be brought down by over 75% while using led office light fixtures. One can simply replace the current inefficient lights with an energy saving lighting system to save expenses considerably. This not only leads to better illumination, but also lasts longer when compared to regular lighting system - approximately 50,000 hours! This is in fact a very important factor as commercial premises make use of lights all day long. So you don't have to worry about replacing or changing them as often. Although the initial cost could be a little high, you can take it as a long term contribution. Moreover, this will be covered up by the expenses saved on your monthly power bills.
On the other hand, as commercial or industrial owners, you can take in the responsibility of protecting the planet by installing commercial LED lighting in your premises. This type of lighting system is indeed Eco friendly and absolutely durable. It is indeed the best step you can take initially to be an energy efficient business firm while cutting your monthly energy costs to a great extent. However, before going about the installation process it's better to conduct a full audit of your commercial premises so as to identify the inefficient places that do require better attention. This way, you can plan well and come up with the right lighting solutions to make your office or facility more energy efficient and cost effective at the same time. Switching to led lights can sure be a real turn on for your company's profit investment ratio in the long run.

We will be happy to provide a no obligation, free quote so you get a feel for our competitive rates before choosing our range of repair and restoration services
1. Roof Inspection
Before starting, we will perform an inspection of the roof to detail the materials and repairs required.
2. Colour Selection
Our consultant discusses with you to help you pick your new colour scheme.
3. Care of your Property
We routinely take every precaution to protect your downpipes, gutters and walls from any mess created by the cleaning and repair process.
4. Replace Broken Tiles
As a result of our initial roof inspection all cracked or broken tiles are replaced.
5. High Pressure Water Blasting
High pressure water blasting is required to remove moss, lichen and grime to achieve best results. No chemicals are used, only water.
6. Rebedding and Repoint
The last step before painting requires all ridge caps, gables and hips to be repointed. This completes the process of restoration of your roof prior to coating.
7. Resurfacing and colour
As part of the final step your roof is sterilised, sealed and coated with two top coats of colour sealants. We'll help you choose your selected colour, providing a permanent finish that will withstand all weather conditions.
Terracotta tiles require a slightly different roof restoration procedure to Cement Tile Roof Restoration. Terracotta tiles are mostly factory glazed and very rarely need any form of coating applied to the surface. But we advise using 'Terra Glaze', a clear protective coating containing ultra violet light protectives and silicons developed specially for unglazed terracotta tiles.
1. Roof Inspection
We inspect the roof for any signs of leaks and broken tiles to detail the materials and repairs required.
2. Replace Broken Tiles
All cracked or broken tiles are replaced with the same tile type of a similar age.
3. High Pressure Water Blasting
The tiles are then high pressure cleaned bringing then back to their original condition.
4. Rebedding and Repoint
The ridge caps are rebedded where necessary and fully repointed using a flexible pointing compound.
5. Coating for unglazed terracotta tiles
Apply high quality clear terra glaze using an airless spray system.

Jesus mentioned that he has the Seven Spirits of God (Revelation 3:1). Some have thought these seven spirits are the Holy Spirit. Nevertheless, none of the writers of the New Testament ever mention that the Holy Spirit sends grace to believers or even sends his greeting to them. Why would he, if he indwells the believer? Why would John need to bring a message of grace from the Holy Spirit (Revelation 1:4), if, indeed, the Holy Spirit indwells the believer? Therefore, I don't believe the Seven Spirits of God could represent the Holy Spirit. Read the rest of this entry »

Jesus' Ascension and the Holy Spirit
The text says that Jesus led his disciples as far as Bethany (Luke 24:50), but this location is really on the Mount of Olives. Just as Jerusalem's suburbs included the Mount of Olives, so Bethany's suburbs also extended to that mountain (Numbers 35:5; cf. Acts 1:12).[1] From here Jesus promised he would send the 'promise of the Father' to them (Luke 24:49; Acts 1:4), and Luke tells us that the 'promise of the Father' is the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:4-5). Earlier, Jesus referred to the Holy Spirit as 'another Comforter', who would be with and remain with his followers and teach them what they needed to know about Jesus (John 14:16, 26). Peter interpreted 'the promise of the Father' to be the phenomenon that occurred to the 120 in the upper room and so affected them on that Pentecost day (Acts 2:33). Read the rest of this entry »
Who Were Jesus' Accusers?
For about two and one half years Jesus had been publicly presenting himself as the Jews' Messiah. While he never said in so many words, "I am the long awaited Messiah!" He did read a Messianic passage of Scripture in Nazareth, and immediately afterward say: "This day, is this Scripture fulfilled in your ears (Luke 4:21). He was rejected in Nazareth, but he operated afterward out of Capernaum and performed many miracles there, but the authorities in Galilee challenged his doctrine and even plotted how they might get rid of him (Luke 6:11; cf. Matthew 12:14; Mark 3:6). So, in Luke 9:51 Jesus set his face like a flint to ascend to Jerusalem and present himself as the Messiah there. Read the rest of this entry »
One Spirit and One Body
On their journey back to Galilee, the Apostles began to dispute among themselves who was the greatest. In view of what follows, I do not believe their dispute was over which individual was the greatest. We need to keep in mind that one of the gifts of the Spirit is a diversity of administration or ministries (1Corinthians 12:5). One of the lessons Jesus had been teaching the Apostles concerned what life within the Body of Christ is like. There are four lists of the apostles recorded in the New Testament. It can be verified by comparing these lists that there are a few things that are always so. The lists are found in Matthew 10:2-4, Mark 3:16-19, Luke 6:13-15, and Acts 1:13.

Healing a Young Boy Possessed by Spirit
If the young boy who was possessed by a spirit (Luke 9:37-39) in the sense that a sentient and independent entity seized the boy's body and mind, as one would take one's own property, there is little I can say in defense of such a thing, as far as God permitting it is concerned. Why would God do such a thing, and how would his permission be justified, according to how the Scriptures define God's character? If God wants us to know him (and I believe he does – Philippians 3:10-15), then what he says about himself ought to be seen in what he does and what he allows to be done. If God views a man's will to be of particular importance (cf. Job 1:6-12; 2:3-7), then how can he justify allowing a malevolent spirit taking full control of an infant boy, knowing the child could never develop a desire to know his Creator? If such a thing is wrong, then the only alternative is that what we believe about demonic activity **must**also be wrong. Read the rest of this entry »

Is a Hotdog a Sandwich?
We occasionally get viewer questions on the podcast that really shake our fundamental beliefs. This was one of them. This got so deep, it went over two podcasts. We even delve into state law during this debate. You can check out the videos below and let us know what your conclusion is.
Our conclusion was…Illuminati?
4 Responses to Is a Hotdog a Sandwich?
I think I have it figured out. A "hot dog" is not itself a sandwich, rather that is the name of the type of sausage (as per the wikipedia article, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_dog). When placed on a bun, this sausage becomes part of a "hot dog sandwich," which as the name implies, is a type of sandwich. However, for brevity, we refer to this sandwich as simply a "hot dog." Therefore, a hot dog is BOTH A SANDWICH AND NOT A SANDWICH, AT THE SAME TIME.
Physicists hate KBMOD because of this one simple trick…
Discovering the God Ingredient
its not black and white. a lot of americans consider burgers a sandwich, and theres where it starts to go grey.
because everywhere else usually considers "a burger" to be the entire thing, buns+filling, we dont buy a beef burger on a bun with salad. yet americans will more often refer to the meat pattie as the burger and the whole thing as a sandwich.
where as when 99% of people say "Sandwich" theyre refering to sliced bread with traditional sandwich fillings, i.e ham cheese tomato, maybe some lettuce and mayo.
a burger pattie on a bun with a slice of cheese isnt a "grilled beef and cheese sandwich" its a cheeseburger.
a hotdog isnt a "frankfurt/kransky with (insert condiments and fillings) sandwich" its a hotdog with -toppings-
therefore a hotdog, like the burger, should be its own beast. all coming under the magic over banner of sandwich, because it technically is a filling between bread. but its not truly what people should call a sandwich.
BUT, if americas are going to call a burger a sandwich they should also call a hotdog a sandwich, refer to both as a sandwich or neither
the real question is, Is a hotdog actually food to be consumed by humans?

Hugh Jackman Reportedly Hosting Oscars
The Academy Awards are going away from the typical comedian as host strategy and will name Hugh Jackman host of the 81st annual show, according to reports.
The move to use the Australian actor for the Feb. 22 show comes as award shows in general continue to see ratings challenges. This year's host was Jon Stewart, with Ellen DeGeneres hosting in 2007.
The news was first reported by Nikki Finke's Deadline Hollywood Daily website.

When I was a teenager back in Kansas, we had this thing my sister and future sister in law used to do to boys we liked. We "HEART ATTACKED" them. We went to their room, or bedroom door, or car, or whatever we could get our hands on and taped heart shaped paper, or toilet paper, or write on windows if applicable, etc etc, you get the idea. It was an honor to be attacked by us 3! Well the weekend of General Conference, we didn't have anything to do since all the boys were at the meeting, so we went and "HEART ATTACKED" the boys cars that we had crushes on at the time, or any car we recognized as a friends. It kinda became a tradition. We did it every Priesthood session. When the meeting was almost over we would hide and wait for the reactions. The guys would always come running out to see who got it this time. They might have acted upset, but they LOVED it! We were the 3 coolest chicks around, if I do say so myself!! I miss my sisters and wish we could spend more time together, especially since we all have young kids!! (Just so we all know, Kelli is my twin and Alyssa married my brother. Alyssa is the blonde in the middle and Kelli is the one that looks nothing like me!) TO KELLI AND ALYSSA: I want to thank you ladies for giving me some of the BEST memories! You girls saved me in so many ways. By your example, your love, and your friendship! I miss you ladies and hope one day we can all live on the same block and get together everyday and knit or something together? (I don't knit but in this reality where we all live close, I do!!)

Heart attacking was so much fun! And I miss you and kelli, too. So much. I wish that we could live closer now when our kids are little, but I'm going to wish it when they're older, too. They'd all have so much fun together, not to mention the fun we'd have!
Someday, someday...
p.s. this pic is from the day that I realized I was going to marry your brother!

This pic was taken at Mallory's bridal shower, if I remember right. I always thought "heart-attacking" was the coolest thing ever, and Pennie and I loved that our girls did it together. Even before Alyssa was "OURS".

Meet Convention Edinburgh's Ambassador Executive
Published: 28 May 2018
We are delighted to profile Claire MacGilp, our primary Edinburgh Ambassador liaison. Claire joined the Team as Research and Ambassador Executive in October last year, read on to find out what her typical day in the office is like.
Claire researches conferences which have the possibility of coming to Edinburgh for future events, as well as looking after our extensive Ambassador Programme of 600+ members. Claire joined Marketing Edinburgh after 11 years working with the National Trust for Scotland where she shared her passion for history, culture and holidaying in the great Scottish outdoors in the Holidays Department. Since starting her new role, Claire has met many Edinburgh Ambassadors at events and is leading the way for upcoming networking events.
Describe your average day in the office
My role focuses on both research and the Ambassador Programme, so an average day can be quite varied. From a research point of view, I am responsible for identifying and exploring potential conferences that fit within Edinburgh's areas of expertise, and then subsequently identifying and contacting local academics or business leaders to generate an interest in working with us to attract the conference to the city.
The Ambassador Programme recognises local experts who have an influence over their associations' choice of conference destination. I am responsible for maintaining the contact list for existing Ambassadors, as well as recruiting new Ambassadors from both local academia and business. As part of the programme we also run regular events throughout the year, which are a great opportunity to network with like-minded people, build new contacts, whilst experiencing many of the fantastic locations that Edinburgh has to offer. I plan and execute these events with the assistance of our Events Manager.
I also provide the Sales Team with assistance such as contributing research data for bidding documents; identifying and working on key research projects for the year and feeding these back to the Sales Team; and providing on-site assistance with various industry events and familiarisation trips.
What role do Ambassadors play in attracting conferences to Edinburgh?
Ambassadors play a vital part in attracting conferences to the city – we simply would not be able to bid or host events without their expertise.
While we can provide tailored support throughout the full stage of attracting, bidding and hosting an event, we would not be able to host an event without their specialist knowledge and influence. Their support and enthusiasm in showcasing the advancements Edinburgh has made within their particular field is crucial.
What can Ambassadors look forward to in the near future?
As mentioned, we run regular events throughout the year. The next event, which we are especially looking forward to, is being held in conjunction with the Edinburgh Grand, which opens at the beginning of June. Ambassadors, and their guest, will be given the chance to be one of the first to experience this latest luxury hotel by receiving a private tour of the property, followed by drinks and canapés on the rooftop penthouse, which offers a spectacular 360° panoramic view of the city.
I am focusing on how we can attract more of conferences to the city which fall within Edinburgh's centres of excellence, such as Technology, Life Sciences and Renewable Energy. Do you know of any? If so, please get in touch!
What are you working on at the moment?
Research is always on-going, there is always something new and exciting to explore! With new developments and advances taking place in so many sectors within Edinburgh, there is always something to investigate, which is why my job is so interesting.
What is Elaine doing now?
Having worked for Convention Edinburgh for 17 years, Elaine is a well-known face in the industry. She has been heavily involved in the Edinburgh Ambassador Programme for many years and has seen the programme develop into the 600+ strong group of Edinburgh Ambassadors we know today.
Claire replaced Elaine as the day-to-day Ambassador contact when Elaine took on the role of International Sales Manager in October 2017. As well as bringing international conferences to Edinburgh, Elaine is still very much involved in the Ambassador Programme, overseeing the research and Ambassador elements of Marketing Edinburgh.

Paul Alan Laughlin's
Musical Recordings
"Tom-Tom's Tunes,"
in Celebration and Honor of Paul's
First Grandson, Thomas Alan Laughlin,
born on November 24, 2014 at 2:00 a.m.
("pink and perfect" and "freakin' adorable" @ 6 lbs. 14 oz)
My "Tom-Tom's Tunes" is an ongoing project of recording
lullabies and other child-and-parent friendly tunes in honor of
my grandson, Thomas Alan Laughlin, born at exactly 2:00 a.m.
on November 24, 2014, thanks to the fine "work" of Momma
Jess Laughlin and Papa Drew Laughlin.
All of the selections were recorded after September, 2014 in my
home-based piano-organ-keyboard rehearsal and recording studio,
using a Yamaha P105B electric piano as a controller hardwired
to my MacBook Pro laptop and using Apple's GarageBand, a
software program or app that provides a virtual digital
recording studio. Scroll all the way down the page for
a photo of my layout.
Here is an image of the projected CD album based on the
tunes accessible below. We'll be handing this version out to
family members and extremely close friends; but once we have
the production line up and running, we'll also make a generic
version free of charge for anyone who wants one. Meanwhile you
may enjoy and download the seventeen tunes listed below, and
pass them on your own family members and friends. I'm told by
folks who have previewed these little musical pieces that they are
not only fun to hear, but work as sleep aids to people of all ages!
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
"An Irish Lullaby"
by J. R. (James Royce) Shannon
Background: Since the name Laughlin is
hopelessly Irish, I thought this would be
a good tune for the start of the project.
"Bach's Little Prelude in C Major"
by Johann Sebastian Bach
Background: This is perhaps at the same time the simplest and
most difficult to play of all of Bach's many compositions, perhaps
because its repetitive (but
repetitious!) rhythmic pattern
lulls (!) the performer into inattention to precision. Charles
Gounod (pronounced"Goo-NOD," but often mispronounced
"GOO-know"or Goo-KNOW") used Bach's tune as the
harmonic basis of his melodic version of "Ave Maria." I
have remixed it as such
, using a synthetic alto flute
to play Gounod's haunting melody. (NOTE: One does not have
be a Roman Catholic, or even Christian or religious, to enjoy
its huge cache of beautiful--and
"Beautiful Dreamer
by Stephen Foster
Background: One of the reasons I chose this lovely ballad
was my free association of the words "lullaby," 'sleep," and
"dreams." Another was that it is a rather dreamy tune. Yet a third
was that its composer was that "Father of American Music,"
Stephen Foster, who is probably best known for his "My Old
Kentucky Home," the official song of the state--or commonwealth,
really--and the Kentucky Derby. where I grew up. Imagine my
surprise to learn that Pennsylvania was his birthplace, and
despite the fact that he lived in Cincinnati for a while, there is no
real evidence that he ever bothered to cross the river and visit
even Northern Kentucky! Still, "Beautiful Dreamer" is
a pretty tune and makes a nice lullaby.
"Brahms' Lullaby"
by Johannes Brahms
Background: This is not only the most familiar and beloved
lullaby in Western culture, but the tune for which the
composer is most remembered. It took me a great deal of
time and thought to get just the feel that I wanted for it.
This version is very close to what passes for perfect for me.
"Chuck Mangione's Lullaby"
by Chuck Mangione
Background: Chuck Mangione is a jazz-pop fleugelhornist
and composer who reached the peak of his productivity and
popularity in the 1970s and 1980s. His biggest hit was "Feels
So Good." This "Lullaby" was part of a movie score that he
composed for the filmed-but-never-released "Children of
Sanchez," starring Anthony Quinn. It represents arguably
and ironically, some of Mangione's best work.
by Johnny Mercer
Background: This tune is not really a lullaby,
but lullabies remind me of sleep, and sleep
reminds me of dreams, and this is a totally
dreamy ballad.
by Oscar Hammerstein & Richard Rogers
Background: This song is from the movie
"The Sound of Music." It, too, is not usually
thought of as a lullaby, but can truly serve
as one. It's also my wife Donna's favorite
song, so I just had to include it!
"Farm Fresh Lullaby"
Traditional Children's Songs
Background: The Farmer in the Dell" meets
"Old MacDonald." What could go wrong?
"Grambo's Children's Lullaby"
Traditional Children's Songs
Background: This is a medley of familiar children's songs. At just
over seven minutes, it's also the longest recording in this collection.
"Good Night, My Someone"
by Meredith Wilson
Background: This tune is from the 20th century musical and
movie, "The Music Man." It is really the same melody as
another song in the same show/movie, "76 Trombones," only
set to a slower-tempo 3/4 waltz time signature, rather
than an up-tempo 4/4 march.
"Hi-Lili, Hi-Lo"
by Helen Deutsch & Bronislau Kaper
Background: This song was published in 1952, and
featured in the film "Lili," starring Leslie Caron.
"Infant Lowly, Infant Holy"
Traditional Polish Christmas Carol
Background: This is a Christmas Carol about
Jesus in the manger on his birth day (not his
birthday, the first of which would come a year
later, right?) In my view, all infants are lowly
holy, so I included it here.
"My Melancholy Baby"
by George A. Norton & Ernie Burnett
Background: This song, one of the most frequently requested bar
songs of the late 20th century, was written in 1912 and first sung
in public by William Frawley, the actor who played Fred Mertz
on the popular 1950s TV show "I Love Lucy" and later "Bub"
on "My Three Sons."
"Pretty Baby"
by Tony Jackson
Background: This song was composed in 1912, the same year that
"My Melancholy Baby" was written and that Paul's father and
Tom-Tom's paternal great grandfather, Franklin Murray Laughlin,
was born. It was recorded ('covered") by nearly every popular singer
of the twentieth century, but one of the earliest versions (1916) was
by a pop singer named Billy Murray, which happens to have been the
childhood nickname of great grandfather Laughlin because to a sricking
resemblance he had to an older cousin, Wiliam Murray. Frank's wife of
more than 50 years and Paul's mother, together with many of Frank's
family members and oldest and dearest friends, called him
"Bill" or "Billy" for as long as they and he lived.
"Rock-a-Bye Medley"
by Traditional/Sam M. Lewis & Jean Schwartz
Background: The title of the tune is ambiguous because this
arrangement combines the traditional "Rock-a-Bye Baby"and
"Rock-a-Bye Your Baby (with a Dixie Melody)." Somebody
had to do it, and I live to serve!
"When Irish Eyes Are Smiling"
by Chauncey Olcott, George Graff, Jr. & Ernest R. Ball
Background: Written for a musical about Ireland, this song was
first published in 1912, the year my father, Franklin Murray
Laughlin, was born. Dad was proud of his Irish roots, and
cried at almost nothing, except at hearing this tune and
"An Irish Lullaby." (See above.)
"When You Wish Upon a Star"
by Leigh Harris & Ned Washington
Background: Written for the 1940 Walt Disney film "Pinocchio,"
it was sung both during the opening credits and at the end of the movie
by popular vocalist Cliff Edwards (aka "Ukelele Ike"), who did the
voice of the character Jiminy Cricket. It later became the signature
song for The Walt Disney company, its TV shows, and its theme parks.
* * * * * * * *
Also recorded in anticipation of Tom-Tom's birth,
but not included on on the CD, is this celebratory song::
"Happy Birth Day to You"
Background: This is the most recognized and performed
song in the English language. The composers were allegedly
two Kentucky sisters named Hill in the late nineteenth century,
and its copyright has been claimed and disputed for decades.
I agree with those who consider it in the public domain, and
even take the liberty of retitling it with "Birth Day" rather
than "Birthday," since here it celebrate Tom-Tom's first day
of life, than its first anniversary, which is what "Birthday"
has come to mean. I intended it to be joyous.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
This is my home Keyboard Room/Recording Studio. It was
formerly a living room, but on the other side of the conveniently-
located kitchen, there is a huge family room, where the family
actually spends most of its time when we are at home.
Nearly all of the recording is done in the corner at the far
end of the room. You will notice no microphones in this
photo, because digital recording doesn't require them,
though they are always an option for the acoustic
instruments, like the baby grand piano and the Hammond
B-3 organ, which are pictured, and horns, drums, guitars,
and other instruments that may be used from
time to time. Sometimes the room looks like this:

It prefers growing in a location that provides full sun and grows best when planted in sand, loam or clay soil that is well drained. The foliage is dark green in color. It attracts visual attention and is resistant to deer, drought, insects, diseases and heat. If you like fragrance, Thuja Occidentalis 'Emerald Green' has fragrant foliage.
Emerald Green Arborvitae can be useful in the landscape in foundation plantings, as a buffer or screen, in containers or planters, around decks, swimming pools, and other outdoor living areas, as an accent, as a focal point, in landscape beds or islands, to frame the corners of a home or other building, to accentuate entryways or in small groupings and also in theme gardens.
Noteworthy Characteristics
Emerald Green Arborvitae is a tall, conical-shaped evergreen conifer that features attractive dark, emerald green foliage. It is absolutely low-maintenance, requiring no pruning and is perfect for use in tight spaces in home foundation plants or as an evergreen screen in situations where space is limited.
Emerald Green Arborvitae is useful in the landscape as a single specimen, in groupings, as a hedge, on the corners in home foundation plantings, and in large containers.
Culture & Care Tips
Arborvitea prefer a well-drained soil and plenty of sunshine. When established they are exceptionally drought tolerant requiring little if any supplemental irrigation. No pruning is necesssary and we've seen no serious insect or disease problems.

The virtual learning environment that we use to deliver these programmes is centred around two applications – Moodle (a learning management system) and Zoom (an online classroom).
Moodle provides the information about the course, the lecturer and the timetable. You will find materials and activities here, as well as links to the live sessions
Zoom is an online collaboration tool that enables both the lecturer and the students to interact with each other and the materials being presented on the whiteboard
To use Moodle you will need:
A desktop or laptop PC or Mac, a tablet, iPad or mobile phone
Any internet browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Internet Explorer, Safari etc.) or either the Apple or Android app for your tablet, iPad or mobile phone
Materials are normally PDF, Word or PowerPoint documents. If you do not already have apps that can open these files, these can be made freely available to you for the duration of the course
For the live classes in Zoom it is important that you are able to both see and hear the class, and to be able to interact with the other participants. For this you will need to have:
a microphone
a webcam
Most modern devices come with all of these built in. If yours does not have all of these (or it is broken) there are a few options you can explore:
Use the Zoom app on your mobile phone to attend classes
Purchase an external webcam with a built in microphone (these are available from around €15)
Purchase a headset with a microphone (also around €15)
Use a combination or your PC and phone by dialling in to the Zoom session for the audio (numbers available for most countries)
If you have any questions about any of these requirements please contact the admissions team who will put you in touch with the IT Support Team here at Dublin Business School.
Participants who complete this online digital marketing course will be able to pursue opportunities in managing online marketing and sales campaigns within client-side marketing organisations, manage large volume ecommerce sites, create and manage digital campaigns within an agency environment, and develop careers in online PR. They will have an expert understanding of how to develop and rollout digital and social media strategies within organisations of all sizes that are aligned with corporate objectives.
Our digital marketing courses are great for students who have previous marketing experience but wish to upskill and stay abreast of developments in their field of expertise.

I wore this look on day one of exploring Boston. It was a blistery, cold late fall day. I was excited to finally break out the cooler clothes and winter layers after an unseasonably warm "fall" in South Carolina. This look was both functional for walking miles around the city and cute enough to convince my husband to snap a few pictures next to a old beautiful cathedral. I hope everyone is having a great week! I am counting down the days until my 30th birthday on Thursday, ah! I wasn't too worried about turning 30 until it started to approach quicker... Did anyone else freak out over this milestone birthday? Let me know, I might need you to talk me through this one. Love, Christina

For many, many investors, you either invest in real estate for cash flow or you don't invest at all. Why such a strong statement? Well, that's because cash flow is such a strong force when it comes to rental properties. So strong, in fact, that cash flow is one of the main forms of profit made from rental income and so today we are going to discuss more on "Getting to Positive Cash Flow".
Sometimes when we buy a building its not a cash flowing asset because sometimes the vacancy is too high or the property needs renovation to be able to get the higher rents. Of course, we love to have the positive cash flow as soon as possible. So how we have been able to do it is that we buy properties under agreement for sale because we like to get the good financing right off the start if possible. Sometimes it makes sense to bind an agreement for sale and then refinance at the higher price after we get the values up for the property. So how we get the values up for the property is by reducing the vacancy or sometimes renovating the property to get the higher rents.
Here are some of the factors that affects getting the positive cash flow.
Selecting the right tenant by thorough background check that illuminates any possible reason why the tenant could be late or default on his rent payments. By doing so, we could eliminate future costly court fees to remove the tenant in an eviction proceeding which can effectively eliminate any expected profits.
Cash flow is the income you have after you collect rent monies and pay out all expenses. Common mistakes that lead to negative cash flows are underestimating the cost to operate the rental property and overestimating the expected rental income. Fixed operating expenses, such as mortgage, property insurance and taxes are easily calculated, but unpredictable expenses like maintenance and repairs can be tough to accurately gauge. A simple rule of thumb to follow is that total operating expenses for rental properties should fall at roughly 25 percent of the total gross rental income received.
Knowing and understanding the local market also affects the outcome of the cash flow. If you under price your rental property, you could lose out on hundreds of dollars a month that could have increased your cash flow. Conversely, if you over price your rental property, it could sit empty for months until you drop the price. Research your market by looking for at least three other comparison rentals in your neighborhood. Check newspaper ads, property management companies and online classifieds. Set your price competitively to rent the property as quickly as possible after it goes on the market.
First impressions are a big factor when looking for a home or apartment. You can increase your cash flow by making the property as appealing as possible during the initial showing to potential tenants. A home or apartment that smells good, has a fresh coat of paint and is properly staged can help you set a higher price for your rent. While many landlords balk at the idea of making improvements to rental properties, consider this: if you borrow $50,000 to improve your property at an interest rate of 4 1/2 percent, your loan payment would be approximately $166 per month. In contrast, you could increase the value of your property by $700 or more each month, depending on the improvements and the market.
If you provide utilities such as water or trash service to your tenant, it can eat a big chunk out of your cash flow. By installing low-flow toilets and shower heads, you can save hundreds of dollars each year. If you are not comfortable providing utilities, consider dropping this option. Furthermore, a rental property with a yard may rely on irrigation to stay green. It's best to provide gardening service for your tenant because if he turns off the water, it can kill your lawn and that will require re-sodding or plant replacement. These expenses eat into your monthly cash flow as well.

Winters in the South Lake Tahoe Area
Winters in the South Lake Tahoe area offer some of the best sports and activities in the country.
There are places to go just minutes from the cabin to enjoy skiing, snowboarding, sledding, cross country skiing, snow shoeing or just snow play. Several popular ski and snowboard resorts are nearby. There are ample natural areas to just take off on your cross country skis or snowshoes.
Heavenly Valley Mountain Ski Resort
Heavenly Valley is a ski resort on the California-Nevada border in South Lake Tahoe. Opening on Dec. 15, 1955,[1] it has 97 runs and 30 lifts spread between California and Nevada. The resort has 4,800 acres within its permit area. About 33% of that area is currently available for skiing. Heavenly boasts the highest elevation of the Lake Tahoe area resorts. The peak elevation is 10,067 ft, and the peak lift-service elevation reaches 10,040 ft .
Heavenly is owned by Vail Resorts. Vail also operates Northstar, and Kirkwood Mountain Resorts at Lake Tahoe. They also own seven other ski resorts in Colorado, Utah, Minnesota, Michigan, and Wisconsin. These include Vail, Breckenridge, Keystone, Beaver Creek, Park City Resort (Canyons), Afton Alps, Mt. Brighton, and Wilmot Mountain.
Heavenly Ski Resort receives about 360 inches of snow per year. The resort has one of America's largest snowmaking systems. Their ski season usually runs from mid November to mid April.
Sierra at Tahoe is a ski and snowboard resort in Twin Bridges California. It is about 12 miles south of South Lake Tahoe. People often shorten the name to "Sierra". This resort is contained within the Eldorado National Forest. It is a medium sized ski area, and is well known for being a family oriented resort. The park receives a high annual snowfall due its location. Sierra-at-Tahoe's terrain park contains 25 percent beginner, 50 percent intermediate, and 25 percent advanced runs.
Hope Valley Cross Country Skiing
Hope Valley sits at about 7,000 feet elevation. It offers miles of open meadows surrounded by mountainous hillsides. The valley is perfect for people who enjoy cross country ski or snowshoeing at any level. Just park along highway 88 and take off into fresh powder. We love to take our dogs skiing with us. They love bounding alongside, then drifting behind us to take advantage of the freshly packed snow. Don't forget to pack a picnic lunch and make a day out of it.
Other Great Winter Activities:
Ski Mountaineering
Snow Shoeing
Cross Country Skiing
Sledding, Tubing and Snow Parks
Ice Skating

Organizers of the FORCE2018 meeting, to be held in Montreal, Canada on October 11 & 12, 2018, are now inviting proposals for presentations on new or creative approaches to research communications and e-scholarship. FORCE2018 promises to be a different kind of meeting, where stakeholders come to the table for an open discussion, on an even playing field, to talk about changing the ways scholarly and scientific information is communicated, shared and used.
Researchers, publishers, librarians, computer scientists, informaticians, funders, educators, citizens, patients, and others attend the FORCE meeting with a view to supporting the realisation of promising new ideas and identifying new potential collaborators. FORCE2018 is hosted by the Ludmer Centre of McGill University.
The theme of FORCE2018 is engagement. Proposals should emphasise how presenters are engaging their local communities – worldwide – or how they will engage FORCE2018 participants. This might mean an interactive presentation, showcasing the tangible impact of your work, encouraging the FORCE2018 community to join your efforts, or another way in which others are engaged.

Join Polly Young-Eisendrath for a talk on her new book, Love Between Equals: Relationship as a Spiritual Path.
ABOUT THE BOOK: Learn how to successfully negotiate conflicts and deepen our most intimate relationships in this practical and thoughtful guide by an experienced Buddhist teacher, psychotherapist, and couples counselor. A committed relationship, as most people see it today, is a partnership of equals who share values and goals, a team united by love and dedicated to each other's growth on every level. This contemporary model for coupledom requires real intention and work, and, more often than not, the traditional archetypes of relationships experienced by our parents and grandparents fail us or seem irrelevant. Utilizing the wisdom of her years of personal and professional practice, Young-Eisendrath dismantles our idealized projections about love, while revealing how mindfulness and communication can help us identify and honor the differences with our partners and strengthen our bonds. These practical and time-tested guidelines are rooted in sound understanding of modern psychology and offer concrete ideas and the necessary tools to reinforce and reinvigorate our deepest relationships.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Polly Young-Eisendrath, PhD, is a Jungian analyst and psychotherapist in private practice. She is the clinical associate professor of psychiatry at the University of Vermont, Burlington, and the founder and director of the Institute for Dialogue Therapy. She is past president of the Vermont Association for Psychoanalytic Studies and a founding member of the Vermont Institute for the Psychotherapies. She is the chairperson of the Enlightening Conversations conferences, which bring together participants from the front lines of the interface between Buddhism and psychotherapy. She has published many chapters and articles, as well as sixteen books that have been translated into twenty languages, including The Self-Esteem Trap: Raising Confident and Compassionate Kids in an Age of Self-Importance.
ADMISSION: Free and open to all.
