26 February, 2017, Cairo, Egypt: An array of affordable apartment complexes, coastal residences and ultra-modern villas will be showcased at this year's Cityscape Egypt, proving that the real estate industry is optimistic about the market's prospects for 2017.
"While there has been a strong increase in new exhibitor numbers, we have also noticed a trend, in major exhibitors increasing their presence at the show," says Tom Rhodes, Exhibition Director of Cityscape Egypt. "The show is a sell-out with over 15,000 sqm of floor space confirmed, a clear indication that while there are a few challenges in the market, sentiment and demand remains steadfast. A look at several new residential developments billed to be unveiled at this year's show is evidence of this."
The Cityscape Egypt exhibition will have over 90 exhibitors, including 20 new exhibitors, when the show kicks off on March 31st running until April 3rd at the Cairo International Convention Centre.
Some of the new exhibitors include CBRE, Catalyst, Mangroovy Residences, Life Park for Real Estate Development, Ardic for Real Estate Development, Avenues Real Estate and El Nasr Housing Development, to name a few.
Exhibiting this year is ARDIC for Real Estate Developments and Investments who will be showcasing Zizinia El Mostakbal as part of Mostakbal City, to be completed in 2020. Dr. Eng. Ashraf Dowidar, of ARDIC, said that their participation at Cityscape coincides with the start of construction on Zizinia El Mostakbal. Built on 70 acres, Zizinia El Mostakbal comprises residential apartment complexes with 45 buildings and 1800 units.
The buildings make up only 20% of the total land usage, while the rest is for green lands, waterways and roads. In addition, the complex includes solar panels as a way of reducing its carbon footprint.
Tabarak Developments, Egyptian-based developer, will launch new projects at this year's show, such as the third phase of its Ninety Avenue development, of which 25% of the second phase, is already under construction. According to Ali Sharbani, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Tabarak, the company will also highlight Capital East Residence. "We are happy to be taking part at this year's Cityscape, which is one of the strongest real estate investment exhibitions internationally," said Sharbani. He added that the property market will continue to be a strong sector in Egypt's economy and will remain resilient against any crisis due to demand from its large population.
Dar Al Maghraby, Egyptian-based architecture firm, will show off TurQuoise, the latest in its portfolio located on Egypt's northern coast. The resort is situated on a green cliff overlooking the sea and offers private beach access, amenities, retail and F&B outlets. The exhibitor will also showcase Murooj, a residential complex in 6th October. Special prices will only be available at Cityscape.
At this year's Cityscape Egypt, Hyde Park will launch its new master developer's name, which will encompass Hyde Park new Cairo, as well as any other future projects.
Hyde Park will also launch Phase 2 of its new residential project, Park Corner, which spans an area of 320,000 sqm and will be completed and ready for delivery within three years of the contract date. In addition, Hyde Park's newest project, located in Sahel, will be launched this summer.
Cityscape will also see the return of Cityscape Egypt Awards, which will take place on March 28th. Sponsored by JLL, a professional services and investment management firm, the Awards offer international architects and leading real estate developers a platform from which to communicate a shared vision for the future, from culturally integrated city skylines to sustainable urban communities. The nominee shortlist will be announced on March 8th.
Egyptian-based developer, Misr Italia will be this year's Associate Sponsor and will highlight a range of their developments. Some of the exhibitors at this year's Cityscape Egypt include: Al Arabia Real Estate Development (ARCO), Palm Hills, PACT, Aloula Tameer For Mortgage Finance, Aristo Developers, Beta Egypt for Urban Development, Brouj Property Management, Capital Group Properties, Egyptian Engineering Development and Real Estate Investment, El-Batal Group, Emaar Misr, Invest4Land (API Investment), Madaar Development, Pandora Investments Public Ltd-Leptos Estates, Rooya Group, Talaat Mostafa Group Holding, Tatweer Misr, Trends Real Estate, and Wadi Degla Developments to name a few.

As Dave Tippett's name swirls around Edmonton as a possible head coach after 1,114 games over 14 seasons in Dallas and Arizona, the frontman for Seattle's expansion entry is taking a vow of silence as brand-new Edmonton Oilers general manger Ken Holland gets his list together.
While Tippett, 57, interviewed in Buffalo a month ago with Phil Housley fired after two seasons and Craig Morgan, The Athletic's Coyotes commentator quoted Tippett as saying; "I don't think the fire ever goes out," on Friday he felt it a conflict of interest to be talking about coaching when he's invested in the Seattle situation. The feeling is Tippett was part of the interview process for GM candidate Bill Zito (Columbus) Wednesday.
Holland, who may have five guys on his candidate list, hasn't yet talked to Dallas assistant Todd Nelson, who coached Detroit's AHL team to a Calder Cup, or other NHL assistants like Lane Lambert in Long Island and Todd Richards in Tampa, but Holland may feel a veteran NHL head man is necessary in the Pacific Division.
Richards, now Jon Cooper's right-hand man in Tampa, has been an NHL head coach for six years in Minnesota and Columbus. Nelson coached the Oilers for 46 games in 2015. He's in that nether region: he has been an NHL coach (also 11 years a head man in the minors) but not for very long in the bigs.
Even so, he deserves to be an NHL head coach because he's good with young players, he's been successful in the minors and he's a smart guy. His problem: he may not interview like other more loquacious candidates.
"Where the Oilers are at now they would benefit from some experience and that not only would help the team but help Ken Holland," said former NHL GM Craig Button. "Ken has to deal with an awful lot of things right now and the last thing you want is also trying to mentor a young coach."
That is somebody like Sheldon Keefe. Not Nelson.
They're running Ken Hitchcock's name up the flagpole in Columbus as a possible team president if John Davidson leaves for the Rangers, citing Hitchcock's availability and ties to the Jackets as coach for four years.
But Hitchcock has no interest in running a team. That job would be right up Ralph Krueger's alley.
"I'd like to dig in and help the coaches both NHL and AHL. I think Ken Holland and I would work well together. Just need to find a role for me that would have value," said Hitchcock.
Best use of Hitchcock until next season: finding bottom six forwards. They don't need stars; they need real NHL players.
Here's a list of UFA's: Marcus Johansson, Brett Connolly, Richard Panik, Patrick Maroon, Brandon Tanev, Garnet Hathaway, Noel Acciari, Daniel Carr, Tyler Ennis, Riley Sheahan, Gregg McKegg. Lots of fourth-liners with Tanev, Maroon and Panik as third-line wingers. Connolly and Johansson maybe second-liners. They'll revisit a trade for Toronto's Connor Brown, which stalled at the deadline.
The sixth annual Hockey Helps the Homeless charity tournament at Terwillegar Community Recreation Centre on Friday was a fantastic success as always, raising over $250,000.
The fun team event drew an array of ex-Oilers and NHLers.
Jason Chimera went first in the team draft with another great skater Dean McAmmond second. Georges Laraque, Craig Muni, Ethan Moreau were in the house, too, along with the local Babych boys — Wayne and Dave — amongst a host of others.
Wayne was the first St. Louis Blues player to ever score (50), getting 54 in '80-81.
"Then I wrecked my rotator cuff," Wayne told TSN's Allen Mitchell. His shoulder was never the same after that.
This 'n that: One of the moves interim GM Keith Gretzky was reportedly trying to make at the deadline was getting rid of Brandon Manning's $2.25 million next year to Vancouver in concert with winger Jujhar Khaira for a draft pick … Most likely trade partners for Ken Holland: Detroit (Steve Yzerman) and Dallas (Jim Nill) … Most likely all the Oiler assistants hired by Todd McLellan last spring — Glen Gulutzan, Manny Viveiros and Trent Yawney — had contracts that dove-tailed with the two years left on McLellan's five-year deal … Oilers goalie Mikko Koskinen is not on the Finnish world championship squad, same for Tobias Rieder on the German side … Ex-Oiler assistant coach Craig Ramsay is head coach of the host Slovaks who upset USA in the first game.

This past week while folks fretted about David Carradine's body outside the tuxified Super-Suit, and mass media pushed Obama's glorification of uniformed men from World War II, these heroes remain in the background:
(1) The estimated millions of women (more women than men) who died under top-male leadership, with greater atrocities practiced upon women experimentally, in World War II's concentration camps. Why did more women die? For one heroic thing, women were unwilling to flee the Nazis because somebody (the unsung heroic women) needed to stay and take care of elderly relatives and children. Jewish women were also leaders in movements for the leadership and equality of the next generation of young women. See, e.g., Bernard Cook, Women and war: a historical encyclopedia from antiquity to the present – Google Books Result
Post-torture mass graves, tragic and not so pretty, but here's a small public-domain image:
(2) Two American journalists (Euna Lee and Laura Ling, women who are LA residents) captured while near the China-North Korean border reporting on Korean women being trafficked (abducted and held prisoner as sex slaves) by men. The cameraman and the local guide escaped.
The women as prisoners have now been sentenced by North Korea's top-male government to 12 years of punishing hard labor. When you see cropped photos about South Korean men protesting for the release of these two women, the bigger picture is one group of men (South Korean) vying for power with another group of men (North Korean, headed by Kim Jung II):

There are prohibitions against what a creditor can threaten when collecting a debt. One of those is they cannot threaten to throw you in jail. There are no debtor's prisons in the United States. Any type of threat, in that respect, is a violation of Florida law and federal law. You can file a lawsuit against the creditor for doing that.

I got this from C.S. Lewis via Happy Catholic and just knew I had to do one of these of my own. Of course this is a list of influential and not favorites, so I'll try to keep them separate as best I can.
1. The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien
It is hard to underestimate just how much this book affected me both as a kid and as an adult. My favorite stories have always been of pure adventure, facing the unknown, and coming back alive. But Tolkien was the first to both emphasize both the importance of the journey and the importance of coming home. As I grew older and began understanding more about the spiritual battles around us, I caught a whole dimension to this story that I never saw before. It has hit me from every angle of my life and there will probably never be a book more influential to me.
2. The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton
I heard a lot as a kid before I hit depression in high school (where we, incidentally, stopped reading books) and the one book I could still go back to now, is this book by S.E. Hinton. You see, though it was thrown in the YA genre, it was written by a fifteen year old teenage girl who merely wanted to write a story. Which means she isn't writing down to her audience or pandering to them like 99% of the genre is known to do. It also tells a tale of how your station in life does not determine who you are--only you can do that.
3. Orthodoxy by G.K. Chesterton
This book hit me hard. It was the first book on philosophy that felt like it was written for backwards thinking idiots like me. Everything made sense, the world looked clear, and for the first time in my life I understood in my head exactly why I believed the things I did as I was coming into the faith. I don't read much non-fiction due to catching up on all the fiction I missed (thank you, nihilist literary world, for shielding me from actual good books while you celebrate your meaninglessness as you kill the novel) but this is the first one that hit home. If it was up to me, this would be required reading for every philosophy class. It would scare a lot of people, and rightfully so.
4. Love in the Ruins by Walker Percy
I think a lot about the end of society. Not the end of the world so much, but reflecting on T.S. Eliot's theory that the world will end with a whimper. This is the book that nails almost exactly how I think the western world will end and is, in fact, currently ending. Apathy, denial of the Truth, selfishness and greed, anger and vitriol directed at fellow men, and the death of true spiritual humanism, which we are swimming in now will lead to an end not too far from this. But Love-- true Love, and not feelings, will be what saves us from out self-destruction. If we let it in.
5. Phantastes by George MacDonald
This was the first real fairy tale I read after becoming a Catholic and it hit my imagination hard. The world, both seen and unseen, can be so beautiful, dangerous, and enthralling, that it leaves you with pure wonder for this world we live in. George MacDonald wrote a real classic here.
6. That Hideous Strength by C.S. Lewis
As I said before, fiction is the type of book that tends to affect me the most deeply, and this is the C.S. Lewis book that did it for me. It's also eerie in how true to life the story actually is, but what makes it work is the contrast of good and evil. It's really hard to make pure good not only interesting, but wondrous like it is in the real world, and show evil as how dull and stupid it is while still keeping the story enthralling. But this might be the best book to show both. It has influenced my writing probably more than any other book for it.
7. Frankenstein by Mary Shelley
This is the first horror book in a lot of ways, but I think a lot of people just see it as an entertaining romp and nothing more. Heck, the monster portrayed in every piece of media is nothing like the one in the book! This is a book that stares emptiness and nihilism in the face and literally screams at its banal promises and empty way of living, while throwing in an enthralling story of a man who destroys his own life by trying spit in the face of God. The reason this book has lasted so long is because it will always be relevant. Even after Western Civilization falls, this book will show why it happened.
8. The Everlasting Man by G.K. Chesterton
I think I might just list Mr. Chesterton's entire body of work here. This spiritual history of the world is fascinating, educational, logical, and striking all at the same time. There is a pattern to history that is pretty obvious to all those who look. There is also one event over all others that significantly changed the world in every way. If I ever taught a history course this would be one of the books we would read. My only disappointment is how I had to go out of my way to learn by Mr. Chesterton's work because our empty shell of a society has decided to ignore his work instead of actually dealing with it.
9. And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie
I'm not much of a reader of mysteries. Once you figure it out, it pretty much kills any interest I have in thinking of the story after finishing it, or re-reading it years later. Agatha Christie is one of the exceptions to this, but this book is probably the best mystery I've ever read. The book deals with human nature in such a direct way that touches on mortality, morality, redemption, and damnation, that at some point it becomes more about how it will all end as opposed to who actually did it. I still think about this book from time to time and it affects my thoughts on the right way to live more than I would have figured a mystery novel ever would.
10. Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien
I suppose this should be higher, but it took me a long time to finally sit down and read this epic. And it hit me hard. The importance of hope, the wondrous adventure, the desperate struggle against evil, the decisions we make that affect us all, this book has everything. While it has deeply influenced the way I see adventure and the world of writing, it is still too new to put it higher. But make no mistake, it is incredible.
And that's my list. Maybe it isn't all that different from my favorite books list, but it is a distinction. I still think about all ten of these books on a regular basis and probably always will.
It's the truth underlying the statement that gets me every single time.

Stop! Are you thinking that to help Shelly get 6720 squares to have put together as afghans for the kids that attend Camp Sanguinity means you and your friends have to crochet or knit tons of squares, causing your fingers to go numb because of carpal tunnel, your children to be unfed, your husband to be ignored (more than you MEANT to? Guess what! It really doesn't.
I think many of us - when we mention it to others or in our self conversations - come across as if we want LOTS of squares from them. We are so used to being asked to give all. Even I was thinking that way, losing sight of her REAL quest: to have each afghan show the love of FORTY different people. (Well actually make that minimum of 41 because someone has to crochet them all together).
So, what that means is as few as one or two per person and you have helped! Of course, you could do more, in case not enough people participated or in case they DID and she can start donating them to other camps. So, what is needed is LOTS of people doing VERY LITTLE!
With that thought in mind, if you can do lots, great! Others have and more will have the time, but many don't have the time, why they are wasting it reading this - or are they? I may have an idea that will work for you or someone you know!
It is you out there that is willing to do just one or two or three that REALLY will make this project be as she envisioned it.
So, let's rethink how we approach people, remind them that this is SHARE a SQUARE, not give us everything you have. Maybe then more people will have time to participate. All they have to do is make one SIX inch square, then make a little tag with name and location (or just use your business card) and tie it on and stuff it in an envelope.
Now, that doesn't mean you can't have that twinkle in your eye, that hint of suggestion in your voice, that smile on your face that says, "but I really really want to see you do a bunch!"
I know if you told me just one I would be more apt to do it than if you told me twenty, although I have managed to get eight done.
I give you, Ways to get more people to do it with you:
- The easiest way: simply ask, it actually worked for me, I was floored!
- Challenge your friends, coworkers, neighbors!
- Challenge the men to put out! (You know what I mean!)
- Invite them over for a desert and coffee and a knit just one square night/afternoon.
- Invite couples over and let the men (unless they do needlework) just do the guy thing and hang out by the pool or over the pool table or in front of the TV while you all knit or crochet a square. They will love the opportunity to spend just a few hours with the guys and you will get to chat without them rolling their eyes or saying, "yeah, right!"
- Bribe those that knit or crochet that have tons of kids and really need to relax - offer to watch the kids for a few hours so they can knit or crochet a square! (OK, I may be pushing my luck now with that idea!)
- If you can knit or crochet, offer to show your neighbors or friends how easy it is (OK, so I haven't learned to crochet yet, I can knit though.)
- Teach your school age or teenage daughter and her friends. Once they have learned enough to pull off a decent square, let her have her friends over for a girls night, get them a movie for later, snacks, whatever teenagers are in to now. Then show them an easy pattern for a scarf or hat.
- Get the whole family involved on family night! The little ones can stamp or color tags, the one who knits or crochets can do his or her thing, finishing touches or making more, the others can write out tags or further embellish them, someone can punch the hole, tie it on, address the envelope, put the stamp(s) on, and the littlest can put it in the envelope. See how easy it is! Then have a fun desert or play a game the kids have been begging you to play, heck just do Ring around the Rosy or I spy. Make it fun. Count your blessings!
- Write a letter to a relative or friend you have practically ignored for years, tell them you just need ONE little square made, send them the yarn, send them a beautiful photo, a peppermint candy, a cute card. Here is your EXCUSE to write that note you have been meaning to. Send the website url if they use computers.
- Have your children write a letter or allow them to type their first email!
- Do it for yourself if for no other reason, just get lost in the meditative qualities of knitting or crocheting, that quiet rhythm that slows your breathing and quiets your brain. . . and that quietness will envelope a child in love. You will have made a difference to one child by one square, a few minutes (hours?) of your time, even if scattered here and there over several days will affect more lives than just yours — obviously the child receiving the afghan will have the warmth and cuddle factor, the people around the child, especially, will appreciate the time involved and the love behind the time, as they probably have little to give others, and - you will have shown others it can be done, the children around you, especially will have seen that it can be fit in.
You may not be able to fix the world, but you can fix one tiny corner of someone's heart and expectations of what can be. And that, y'all is one heck of a long term investment in someone's life that will be passed on down the generations!
NOTE! This is one post you can copy, take pieces of, rephrase, whatever. You don't need to give me credit or link back here, run with it. . . This does not just apply to Shelly's Share A Square Project - but to any project. Brainstorming is my favorite thing to do other than tumble words out of my head onto a keyboard. I probably could have come up with more, but I have squares to tag and box up - and I have goofed off long enough! And yes, I am putting this on all my blogs, even their old versions still on Blogspot. Duplicate content, but, hopefully worth your time to read ONCE.
Share a Square, then take on the rest of the world!What a way to revise your thinking on helping!

Earns Second Green Jacket Wearing Limited-Edition 'Bubba Green' Made in the USA Tour Profile Model
(GREENVILLE, SC) – KENTWOOL – the 171-year-old, family-owned American textile innovator – reports that staff player Bubba Watson wore its limited-edition, 'Bubba Green' Tour Profile performance golf sock en route to winning the 2014 Masters.
Relying on KENTWOOL's proprietary, fatigue-reducing blend of air-infused merino wool, Watson finished at eight-under-par 280 and earned his second Green Jacket. Entering the final round tied for the lead, Watson fell back by two shots, but critical birdies on holes six, eight and nine helped the 35-year-old fire a 69 and seal his sixth PGA Tour victory. The win also put Watson at a career-high No. 4 on the Official World Golf Ranking.
"Of the many players that wore our socks at Augusta, 86 percent made the cut," says Mark Kent, CEO and President of KENTWOOL. "While Bubba again captured the greatest prize in golf, they all benefited from our blister-free guarantee."
The KENTWOOL limited-edition Bubba Green model ($19.95) is sold exclusively at www.KENTWOOLSocks.com. Offered while supplies last through May 16, this distinctive green model boasts yellow heel and toe patterns with red brand accents. Crafted from a proprietary blend of fine merino wool and high-tech fibers for superior moisture management, the socks are Made in the USA.
"The first one for me, it's almost like I lucked into it," said Watson. "After giving it away last year, I wanted it back. This one was a lot of hard work and dedication."
An authentic southern textile company, KENTWOOL is devoted to helping golfers feel their best with every step. Each pair features WINDspun technology that infuses the fibers with air to provide unrivaled cushioning at micro-stress points along the foot, enhancing comfort and energy levels while helping reduce injury risk. The full KENTWOOL line includes the new KW Series Pro Light and Sport models, Tour Profile, Low Profile, Tour Standard, The Graduate and 19th Hole designs.
In addition to Watson, KENTWOOL socks are trusted in competition by scores of Tour stars, including Matt Kuchar, Jonathan Byrd, Beatriz Recari, Ryann O'Toole, Peter Jacobsen, Duffy Waldorf, Brendon de Jonge, Tom Gillis, Jane Park, Charles Warren, Kevin Johnson, Kristy McPherson, Shasta Averyhardt, Jenny Suh, Sarah Kemp, Jenny Gleason, Meaghan Francella and Jenny Hong.

The Lady Bulldogs made No.3 ranked Mississippi State sweat and work for their win in an epic Thursday night college women's basketball game over in Starkville at Humphrey Coliseum. Georgia led for over 31 minutes of the game, but in the end, Mississippi state pulled ahead in the fourth quarter to prevail 58-49, handing the Lady Bulldogs their 13th loss on the season.
Georgia jumped out early and led most of the way, building a 42-39 lead at the end of the third quarter. The Lady Bulldogs only scored seven points in the final frame as MSU improved to 26-1, 12-1 in the SEC.
"I thought we were a little hesitant offensively in the fourth quarter," head coach Joni Taylor said. "Credit Mississippi State and credit our team for a really great game tonight. I am proud of our team and we have to get ready for the next one."
Georgia looked sharp early on after Caliya Robinson came off the bench in the first three minutes. She blocked Victoria Vivians' 3-pointer and drove coast-to-coast to give the Lady Bulldogs an early 4-2 lead.
Robinson did not stop there. In fact, she scored nine of Georgia's first 11 points as the Lady Bulldogs held Mississippi State to just 2-of-13 (15 percent) shooting from the floor en route to an 11-6 advantage at the end of the first quarter.
Mackenzie Engram followed Robinson's lead with six second-quarter points. Georgia had to stave off a late flurry by MSU late in the frame to stake claim to a slim 21-19 lead at the half.
Georgia maintained its lead throughout the third quarter, answering everything Mississippi State could throw its way. The Maroon Bulldogs inched back and tied the game at 39-39 with just over a minute to go, but Shanea Armbister nailed a big 3-point basket to give Georgia a 42-39 lead heading into the fourth quarter.
The Lady Bulldogs' slowed down in the fourth quarter as MSU hung on for a 58-49 victory.
Georgia now heads home to face LSU on Senior Day this Sunday at 2 p.m. ET.

- Group announces it has set aside £1.8bn to compensate customers
- Amount was higher than expected as bank expects 550,000 complaints
- Moves made to sell off 33% stake still owned by the UK taxpayer
More than £2billion was wiped off the value of Lloyds bank yesterday as it revealed it had been forced to set aside another £1.8billion to compensate customers mis-sold payment protection insurance.
The announcement comes as the state-backed lender prepares for a public sell-off as early as next month, and takes its total bill for the scandal to £9.8billion.
The spiralling PPI bill stunned the markets, causing shares to drop nearly 4 per cent to 79.9p. City experts said the slump in Lloyds' share price also reflected disappointment among investors who had expected it to announce a 2013 dividend at its results next week.
Divi disappointment: Investors had been hoping that a dividend would have been paid out of 2013 earnings
In a pre-emptive move, Lloyds informed the stock market it expects to make a £6.2billion profit for last year – more than double the figure for 2012. But this does not include 'exceptional' costs such as £3billion set aside to pay PPI compensation.
The bank's 2.7million private shareholders are now likely to receive dividends in the second half of this year, ending the drought since its £20billion bailout in 2008.
Despite the fall in the bank's share price, insiders said the Treasury wants to be able to 'push the button' on a sale as soon as its final figures for 2013 are published in the first week of March.
A swift sale to the public would be a major pre-election boost for George Osborne, who has made it clear he wants to give retail investors the opportunity to buy shares in Lloyds.
It could also heap pressure on Labour, which attacked the Coalition's handling of the banks and pledged to force the UK's biggest lenders to sell off branches to boost competition on the high street.
Last night Mr Osborne was accused of 'playing politics' by rushing through a sale.
Labour's Treasury spokesman Chris Leslie said: 'These new huge provisions for PPI show banks are still in a troubled period. I'm not convinced that selling at this time will gain the maximum value for taxpayers.'
But Mark Garnier, Tory member of the Treasury select committee, said: 'Chris Leslie does not display a huge amount of understanding of banks and the wider economy. There is never a perfect time to do these things but the sooner we can return Lloyds to the private sector the better.'
Last night's share price was comfortably above the 73.6p 'break even' price at which Mr Osborne believes he can sell at a profit for taxpayers.
Lloyds Bank: It separated the TSB brand last year and will sell it when it can find a buyer
Lloyds is still 33 per cent owned by the UK taxpayer after Chancellor George Osborne began selling off the government's initial 39 per cent stake last September.
Most analysts and investors had expected the bank to announce a small dividend for 2013 alongside its full year results, due on February 13.
Lloyds last paid a dividend to shareholders after it published its half-year results in 2008, just before the UK government had to bail it out with a £20 billion rescue.
Richard Hunter, head of equities at Hargreaves Lansdown stockbrokers, said: 'The PPI number is disappointing not only in terms of the cumulative figure now nudging £10 billion, but also because it perpetuates concerns around when this saga will actually come to an end.'
'The dividend guidance is worse than expected,' one of Lloyds biggest 50 institutional investors told Reuters.
Despite the gloomy news Lloyds revealed it had started preparing for a possible second sale of government-owned shares to the public.
The public sale of shares in Lloyds is part of a drive to return the bank to private ownership by next year, boosted by the success of the recent privatisation of Royal Mail Group.
Lloyds, which last paid a dividend in October 2008, said it will apply to regulators in the second half of 2014 to restart payouts, which it said will be at a 'modest' level. The bank is aiming for a payout ratio in the medium term of at least 50 per cent of sustainable earnings.
Chief executive Antonio Horta-Osorio said: 'This will be another important step in our journey to rebuild trust and confidence in our group.'
The further PPI provision by Lloyds brings the total amount set aside in 2013 to £3billion, despite a reduction in average monthly complaint volumes to around 37,000 in the final quarter of the year.
These new provisions largely reflect what the bank said were 'revised expectations for complaint volumes,' and bring the total put aside for compensation to £9.8billion.
Its latest customer surveys suggest that the Halifax and Bank of Scotland owner can still expect another 550,000 complaints on PPI.
The bank has also made a further provision of £130million relating to the sale of interest rate hedging products to small and medium-sized businesses, bringing the total amount set aside to £530million.
In spite of the increased provisions, Lloyds said its underlying profit was £6.2billion for 2013 and it expects to announced a 'small statutory profit before tax' when it publishes full-year its full year results.
Richard Hunter, Head of Equities at Hargreaves Lansdown Stockbrokers said: 'The PPI number is disappointing not only in terms of the cumulative figure now nudging £10billion, but also because it perpetuates concerns around when this saga will actually come to an end. The additional interest rate swap provision is perhaps less surprising but, again, indicative of ongoing regulatory censures.
'The announcement is not, however, all negative. The strong projected profits number, core loans growth, a sturdy capital cushion and the potential return to a dividend later in the year all provide some succour. In addition, the likelihood of finally being able to return to full independence is overdue and welcome,' Hunter added.
'When the dust has settled on today's announcement and, barring no further surprises in the actual results in two weeks' time, the market consensus of the shares as a strong hold should at least remain in place.'
Shares in Lloyds Banking Group were down 2.25p at 81.05p by mid-morning.
Analysts are expecting the bank to pay a dividend of up to 1.5p a share.
Confidence: Lloyds chief executive Antonio Horta-Osorio said: 'This will be another important step in our journey to rebuild trust and confidence in our group'
The payout could provide political cover for Lloyds in the simmering row over bonuses if the bank decides to seek shareholder permission to pay up to 200 per cent of salary to some staff in the coming year.
Under European Union rules, banks need shareholders to vote in favour of bonuses of more than 100 per cent of salary. The leading shareholder in Lloyds and Royal Bank of Scotland is the state.
Separately, The Mail on Sunday said it understands that RBS and Lloyds could yet be hit with demands from the European Commission to beef up their plans to sell hundreds of branches to form new high street banks.
Both RBS and Lloyds have been required to sell a slew of branches as a price for state aid during the financial crisis. Both have missed the deadline for the sales, prompting European officials to push for the sell-offs to be made more significant.
An EC spokesman said: 'The commission is in continuous contact with the UK authorities to define the conditions under which the extensions for the deadlines can be granted.'
Lloyds will sell its newly formed TSB subsidiary, which has 630 branches, while RBS will sell 318
branches under the dormant Williams & Glyn's name. Treasury sources suggested that the talks revolved around whether or not these new banks would be strong enough to provide competition to the existing big four banks.
The Office for Fair Trading led a study in September into the sales, which resulted in Lloyds pumping more cash into TSB, alongside a £4billion parcel of home loans.
The big four UK banks all report this month. RBS is expected to report a loss of up to £8billion. Its new chief executive Ross McEwan will attempt to move on by revealing a new strategic plan.
Barclays is forecast to report a profit of £2.8billion – impacted by weakness at its investment bank.
And HSBC is expected to report a profit of £14.5billion, analysts at investment bank JP Morgan said, hit by issues in emerging markets.

Top deals include Halifax's Reward Account promising new customers £100 to switch and £5 per month if they stay in credit.
First Direct pays £100 to new customers who switch to its First Account. On top of that, the bank is so confident in its customer service that it will give you a further £100 if you chose to close the account within the first 12 months.
Santander's 123 current account, on the other hand, pays interest on in-credit balances - 1 per cent on balances between £1,000 and £2,000, 2 per cent between £2,000 and £3,000 and 3 per cent on balances between £3,000 and £20,000.

I understand how you feel! My 15 month old still nurses, however he sleeps in his own bed so the night nursing has been done for quite some time now.
I guess the easiest way would be to be very gradual. Cut out one daytime nursing session, the least important one, like after a nap, before/after lunch, etc. Keep the most important ones, like first thing in the am and bedtime. Cut one out at a time and space them out, it will be the most comfortable for you and the baby.
I do'ntk now about the night weaning, since he is still in your bed it may be really hard. I'm sorry I don't have any advice for you there!
Congratulations on nursing this long, its a wonderful thing you did for your children!

One of the highlights of the SPA event (senior portrait artists) is the fashion show. The 15 seniors who were chosen in the spaModels model search are used to put on this high energy, exciting show. My studio participates in the spaModels program and hopes to have a model in next year's fashion show. It's such a fun event and the kids seem to really enjoy themselves. Seriously, who wouldn't enjoy an extra long Christmas vacation ending with a few days in a sunny location where you get to be photographed by some of the country's best senior photographers, get modeling advice, walk the catwalk in a fashion show and have all of it paid for? Yeah, that's what I'm talkin' about.
Here are my favorites from the fashion show--imagine yourself there next year!

Ereshkigal sheds tears. Since any who heppen to gaze at her scarlet eyes will be led to death, nobody can understand the reason for her tears. With her magnificent body, she weeps within the night.
- Was acquirable by paying 400 Tribute Points in the Forbidden Bazaar during the Another Night campaign.
- Added to the LCP.
Name OriginEdit
In Mesopotamian mythology, Ereshkigal ("great lady under earth") was the goddess of Irkalla, the land of the dead or underworld. Sometimes her name is given as Irkalla, similar to the way the name Hades was used in Greek mythology for both the underworld and its ruler.
Ereshkigal was the only one who could pass judgment and give laws in her kingdom. The main temple dedicated to her was located in Kutha.
The goddess Ishtar refers to Ereshkigal as her older sister in the Sumerian hymn "The Descent of Inanna" (which was also in later Babylonian myth, also called "The Descent of Ishtar"). Inanna/Ishtar's trip and return to the underworld is the most familiar of the myths concerning Ereshkigal.

On Monday, President Trump officially opened the new U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem, a move that made real the administration's recent, controversial policy change to officially recognize of Jerusalem as Israel's capital. The international community has avoided recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital, as the city is also claimed by Palestine. The embassy opening was met with mass resistance that resulted in bloodshed along the Israeli-Gaza border.
According to multiple reports, at least 60 Palestinians were killed by Israeli soldiers and 2,700 people were injured in the protest.
On Tuesday morning, the United Nations Security Council paused for a moment of silence in respect for those who lost their lives.
A close U.S. ally, Queen Rania of Jordan, tweeted out that it was "A dark and sad day in history, marked with more Palestinian sacrifices."
Per The Associated Press, Hamas, a militant group, claims that many of the protesters killed by Israeli soldiers were members of Hamas. 8 children are also among the dead, according to ABC News.
Moving the U.S. embassy in Israel to Jerusalem was long one of Trump's campaign promises. As evidenced by the protests' deadly turn, many experts believe the decision will strengthen divides in the Middle East.
But for a moment on Tuesday, as seen in the NBC News video above, those present at the Security Council meeting stood together, completely silent, in recognition of the lives lost.

BBFC launches its Annual Report & Accounts 2017
82% more films were classified for cinema in 2017 compared to 2007.
Video on demand continues to receive more BBFC age ratings than any other format
In 2017 the BBFC gave 378 films a 12A age rating, the most ever at the 12A category
Date 19/07/2018
In 2017 the BBFC age rated 1,048 films for cinema release, representing an 82% growth in films classified compared to 2007. With a total of 378 titles, there were more films with a 12A age rating in 2017 than ever before. However 15 remains the most common age rating with 392 theatrical classifications last year. Every film classified by the BBFC comes with detailed BBFCinsight information to help people make informed viewing choices for themselves and their family. BBFCinsight is available on bbfc.co.uk and the BBFC's free apps for tablet and mobile devices.
Although cinema is as popular as ever, digital content continues to grow, with submissions increasing by 25.3% since 2016, with just under 160,000 minutes of digital content classified in 2017.
David Austin, BBFC Chief Executive, said: "Our aim is to support children and families to make viewing decisions that are right for them whenever, whatever and however they are watching, be it cinema, Blu-ray or DVD, or Video on Demand (VOD). Going forward we will continue to carry out research to ensure that our standards are in line with what people across the UK believe and expect. "In February 2018 the Government designated the BBFC with new responsibilities as the age-verification regulator for online commercial pornography, under Part 3 of the Digital Economy Act 2017. This is due to our acknowledged expertise in assessing and classifying content, including pornographic content, and our longstanding experience of online regulation. The new legislation is an important step in making the internet safer for children."
In addition to providing the latest age rating information on our websites, twitter account and free app, the BBFC continues to publish resources for children, teachers and older learners including a regular podcast, a children's website (www.cbbfc.co.uk), case studies and classroom posters.

The NFL needs to get far more consistent making its own personal foul calls. When the Browns lost to the Ravens, I defended the technicality of the rules on a personal foul called on Browns receiver Josh Gordon on Ed Reed. On a technicality, Gordon was moving a bit back toward the Browns' goal line making it seem like an illegal hit according to a strict reading of the rules.
Now this week, the Ravens converted an improbable 4th and 30 with a dump off to Ray Rice that succeeded due to a bad spot and also a very questionable blindside block by Anquan Boldin on Eric Weddle that left Weddle injured. Yet this play by Boldin went uncalled even as he was pretty much running directly toward the Ravens goal line cracking a completely unsuspecting Weddle.
The NFL is going to continue to have issues regarding player safety and also fairness if they can't get some more consistency with regard to handing out 15 yard penalties. Remember that Josh Gordon was not only flagged for his hit on Reed, but also fined $20,000. The Ravens were awarded a first down on the measurement and went on to win the game, largely with the help of a play that should have been 15 yards according to the very rules that were used just a few weeks prior.
Referees do miss things and can't be expected to see every single thing on every single play, but excuse me if I don't consider this along with a little holding or facemask grab that goes unnoticed. This seems more like an inconsistency in enforcement or understanding. The NFL should investigate, continue to educate their referees and make sure they get consistent officiating their own game.

Property vs. Inland Marine Coverage
Unique ID: b228715d-a2d3-4249-b338-97f5a8a2925d
Property and casualty insurance for facilities
A property policy is one of the most basic parts of your facility's insurance management plan, as well as one of the most nuanced. Property policies vary not only in the types of items they cover, but also how payments are made, where property can be, when it's covered, etc. This is why it's of vital importance to review not only what property you have covered, but how and where it's covered.
A standard property policy usually protects buildings and contents at a particular location, or within 1,000 feet of that space. This is perfectly fine to cover ordinary items that are stationary such as office furnishings. However, problems can arise when you have specialty items or property that isn't stationary (ex. equipment that is taken off-premises).
Hence one of the primary reasons to place these items on an inland marine policy, which provides coverage to items that aren't stationary. These policies are often tailored for specific types of equipment – such as forklifts – to offer more specific coverage than a standard property policy. They usually have less exclusions with some even providing flood coverage for no additional charge.
Unlike standard property policies, which often pay the cost to replace damaged property with a new item, inland marine policies usually pay only the depreciated value. Additionally, they require a schedule – or list – of what you want covered.
Because of the significant difference between your standard property policy and inland marine coverage, you should make sure to review your entire plan with your insurance broker. Whether it's your building, your equipment, your stock or something else, ensuring your property isn't only covered – but covered by the right kind of policy – is essential to preserving your bottom line.

I also have a Poochon, half poodle and half bichon. My Gracie is a rescue and had been abused. She, however, is an albino with pink nose, eyes, lips, and skin. I love her to bits.

Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan is so fond of films of the 1950s-60s that he wishes he was an actor in that era, which he describes as the golden period of Indian cinema.
"To me the 1950s-60s were the golden period of Indian cinema. During that time the creative talents be it director, actor, lyric writers, composers, writers and in every department used to be excellent," Aamir told reporters at PVR Phoenix Mill, where he came to attended the screening of "Teesri Manzil" in Purani Jeans Film Festival organized by Radio Mirchi.
"I think that people during that time were more passionate about filmmaking," he said.
"All old films I see, I feel that I should have worked in them. 'Teesri Manzil', 'Guide' and the list is unending. They are so fantastically made. I wish I was born during that period," he added
The actor was all praise for the radio station's initiative for screening Indian classics.
"It's a great opportunity for the youngsters today to see these films, made by such talented people, great artistes, performers, directors, writers and composers. This is actually our treasure," said Aamir.
"In every period of time different kind of talent has come in Indian cinema. So it's quite difficult to compare one period of cinema with the other," he said.
"I don't think that now there is any dearth of talent. It often happens that we like older things, as there is a nostalgia value. But I think that talent at that time was really special. But today's talent, like me, is privileged and proud to belong to this lineage of talented people," said Aamir.

If you were to hear that cybercrime is the primary factor that determines the growth in the cybersecurity market, would you be surprised? Of course not. While some studies predict that by 2021 the cybersecurity market cap will exceed $1 trillion, other studies have looked at the other side of the equation, stating that cybercrime costs will exceed the same amount in a similar timeframe.
Will this inevitably have an impact on your cybersecurity budget? That depends on how you quantify the size and scope of your organization's cybersecurity risks, according to Devon Bryan, CISO at the Federal Reserve System. He believes that's one of the biggest challenges that security leaders are faced with today.
"The challenges we face as practitioners to quantify the cybersecurity risk and to demonstrate with defensible data how cybersecurity investments will lead to marked improvement to overall cybersecurity risk posture using imperial data is among the challenges that we face in tackling that particular problem," he told InfoSec Insider in a recent interview during the InfoSec World Conference & Expo.
In the full interview below, Bryan addresses the topic of over- or under-investing in cybersecurity as a security leader and shares his advice on what practitioners can do to ensure they're taking the right steps to ultimately make the right investments based on their security strategy.

According to the Centers for Diseases Control, 82 percent of Americans take at least one medication every day. This number represents millions of people and millions of prescriptions to be filled. Prescription mistakes can be very dangerous. If a person takes the incorrect dosage of a medication, the person could suffer side effects, and the error could even be fatal. In Rhode Island, pharmacists take steps to avoid these types of medications errors, but some cases still slip through the cracks.
Medication error leads to serious syndrome for woman
One woman is suffering the effects of taking the wrong dose of medicine. As a result of a high dose of the drug lamotrigine, she developed Stevens Johnson syndrome and suffered severe skin problems as a result. The woman is currently in litigation for the medication error, and individuals in Rhode Island who have been diagnosed with Stevens Johnson may be able to learn something from the woman's case.
Drug error leads to $12 million award for injured woman
A contested use of a dangerous drug has led to a monetary award for a woman injured in a hospital. The woman won a $12 million jury verdict after the trial, which will now be applied towards her ongoing medical needs. Although this incident occurred in another state, individuals in Rhode Island may be interested to learn of the details of the drug error case in the event of something similar in their own lives.
Negligent pharmaceutical companies charged with opioid issues
The effects of opioid abuse have reached epidemic proportions across the United States. City and county governments are clamoring to aid the addicted, with treatment and emergency care for abandoned and orphaned children, and staff-strained EMS departments. Some locales blame the opioid epidemic, at least partially, on negligent pharmaceutical companies, as revealed in a recent news story. Rhode Island residents may be interested to learn more about the complex issue.
Prevention steps to stop pharmaceutical error
Medicines are powerful and potent chemicals. They have the power to reverse illness, relieve symptoms and the power to cause harm if administered incorrectly. Under-staffing, rushing and technological errors are all contributing factors to pharmaceutical errors. In Rhode Island, a pharmacist is responsible to dispense medications properly so the patient is not harmed. If a pharmaceutical error is a concern for a pharmacist, he or she may wish to utilize some prevention strategies to avoid patient injury.
Will Rhode Island Lyme disease program cause pharmacist error?
Lyme disease is an illness caused by a bacteria carried by ticks. The disease can cause severe headaches, neck stiffness, arthritis, joint pain, facial palsy and problems with short-term memory. Rhode Island is one of 14 states with Lyme Disease-carrying ticks and is a hotspot for Lyme disease cases. Pharmacies have expanded their role in prescribing medicines across the state under what is called collaborative practice agreements and are now able to give doxycycline to patients who have been bitten by ticks within a 72 hour window. Some feel that pharmacist error in diagnosing and assessing the tick bite will lead to increased antibiotic resistance.
Is it an allergy or a side effect?
When you are sick or in pain, you typically go to a doctor in Providence County expecting immediate relief. When such a visit results in you being prescribed a medication, the hope is that taking it will provide such relief. Yet while a drug may alleviate symptoms related to your condition, it could also produce new (and often unpleasant) issues.
Assigning vicarious liability to prescribing physicians
Have you ever considered if the use of medication by a complete stranger could somehow affect you, as well? Many of those in Providence County that we here at DeLuca and Weizenbaum have worked with in the past may tell you yes based off their own personal experiences. If you were ever to encounter such a scenario, could the prescribing doctor be held liable, just as he or she would be in a case involving a medication error that you experience?
Reviewing the reasons for the under medication of cancer patients
The abuse of pain medication by people in Providence County and throughout the rest of the U.S. has been well-documented. Oftentimes, cases of abuse begin by one having a legitimate need for such medication, yet ultimately becoming addicted to it. Given the potential for addiction, doctors must be judicious in prescribing pain medication. Yet can that apprehensive attitude result in patients being under medicated?
Reviewing the pros and cons of implantable drug delivery systems
If you are required to take a medication to combat a chronic condition, then you may know full well the issues that can arise from persistent prescription drug use. Many of the Providence County residents that we here at DeLuca and Weizenbaum LTD have worked with in the past have reported problems like forgetting to take their medications on a regular basis or suffering side effects such as tissue damage from repeated injections. Some might say that implantable drug delivery systems may be the answer to the challenges you may face in adhering to your medication schedule. However, these devices are not without their flaws.

Ring Video Doorbell Pro Review
ProsStraightforward installation; attractive design; app provides lots of configuration and customization options
ConsAt least $50 too expensive
Star Rating
Here at The Tech Buyer's Guru, we love testing Smart Home gear, but the reality is that most products that fall under the Smart Home umbrella today really aren't all that smart. This is particularly true in the security camera market, where a seemingly endless number of manufacturers are offering what amounts to the exact same product, over and over.
Luckily, one company stands out from the rest: Ring. It staked its name on doorbells (get it?), but has since expanded into stand-alone security cameras and even alarm systems. With that said, it's probably still best known for its doorbells, so we decided to have a look at its newest model, the Video Doorbell Pro, to see what it has to offer, and to discuss why you might choose a Ring video doorbell over another Ring video camera product or any of the hundreds of other video cameras available today.
And by the way, Santa Monica-based Ring was successful enough over the past few years to catch the eye of Amazon, which snapped up the company for a cool $1 billion in early 2018, which suggests at least two things: Amazon saw a lot of promise in Ring's IP, and Ring now has the financial backing to guarantee that it will be around for a long time to come. That's an important consideration in choosing any Smart Home gear, given the requirement of at least some ongoing cloud-based support.
With that introduction out of the way, let's move on to the product!
Description and Features
To provide as thorough a review of the Ring Video Doorbell Pro's description and features, we've created the following unboxing and installation video, which will tell you everything you need to know about what the Video Doorbell Pro offers, and more importantly how to actually install it!
Flip to the next page to read our impressions of the Ring Video Doorbell Pro in action!

Police officers, religious leaders and politicians converge on Vatican for conference on ending human trafficking
Sitting in the splendour of Academy of the Sciences, deep within the private Vatican gardens, top police officers, religious leaders and politicians from around the world have gathered together.
They are here for one reason – to eradicate the crime against humanity that is people trafficking.
As the conference gets underway, we hear testimony from some of those who have been trafficked and we are immediately transported from the tranquil surroundings into the very private hell of women that have been trafficked across borders.
They are called sex workers, but as their testimony shows they aren't workers, they are slaves, forced by violence to sell their bodies.
It is brutal, raw and hard to listen to but as a way of concentrating the mind it is perfect.
The stories we hear are all too familiar to me having spoken to several victims of this terrible crime. Away from the conference ITV News spoke to Maria Grazia.
She was tricked into coming to Italy from her native Albania on the promise of a job, a better life, but instead she was drugged, beaten, raped and forced into prostitution.
Like many of the victims she looks younger than her real age – something that increases her value to her masters.
Thankfully, Maria managed to escape and is now being cared for by a Catholic charity called Giovanni XXIII, run by a young energetic priest Don Aldo Buonainto.
He and his team go onto the streets of Rome to rescue women, give them sanctuary far away from those who would enslave them.
The conference has been the work of newly installed UK Cardinal Vincent Nichols, who reminds the room why we are here.
For the victims, to put them at the centre of all the work that is done and to target not the victims sold into slavery, but the gangmasters, pimps and thugs that terrorise their every waking moment.
All the speeches, all the good intentions, will come to naught, if concrete steps aren't taken but Met police commissioner Sir Bernard Hogan Howe is determined that with the help of Pope Francis, real change can be brought about.
Tomorrow the conference will hear in person from more victims of trafficking. And again we will get a glimpse into their world, their suffering.
And once again the men and women sat around the table in the Vatican will know they must turn their words into action.

In a city that's banned smoking from bars, restaurants, and is looking at parks, and in a country led by a President who's an alleged closet smoker, it's easy to understand the trepidation that comes with being captured on camera taking a long, smooth drag from a cigarette.
Photographer Susanna Howe found many of her friends would "dash to put the cigarette out when you raise the camera to [their] face" while shooting for "Smokers," (NSFW) her current exhibition at Bird in Williamsburg (203 Grand St).
And many of the "Smokers" photos displayed on Howe's site show subjects enjoying a smoke around decidedly anti-smoking New York City; one woman was shot in Prospect Park and another by the Shelter Island Ferry Terminal.
Open through December 3, "Smokers" is an exhibition and video installation that is "a stylish, funny, even sexy look at the remaining few who aren't waiting to exhale," as the Times describes.

Last week, my Honey and I hosted a fun tropical backyard fest and I'm excited to share all the details with you!
The weather wasn't the best on the morning of the big day (which made me slightly nervous whilst setting up the decorations outside and look up 'indoor tropical party ideas' on google a few times) but thankfully the thundery clouds made way to gorgeous blue skies just before we were due to start. Yay!
It was a gorgeous evening filled with good food, laughs, and of course – punch ;) I had so much fun in fact that I completely forgot to take more shots once the guests had arrived, oops – I'll do better next time I promise!
See all the party set-up and details below:
The Decor
To make the outdoor area feels more cozy, we brought some of our indoor furniture out – such as the coffee table, bar cart, rugs, cushions, dining room table etc. This also allowed us to create separate areas so that people could mingle and move around easily.
I wanted the party to have a tropical vibe but to still feel chic and modern so when it came to choosing decorations I *tried* to restrain myself. I picked a few bright, tropical – themed items (pineapples, flamingoes, and greenery) and kept the rest of the decor very neutral. I also mainly focused my decorating efforts on one area – the drinks and dessert buffet table – so that I could make an impact without having to spend tons on decorations.
My hubby actually made the pretty tropical backdrop using palm leaves and flowers we found at the markets and in our garden. I have to say, I was quite impressed by his work! Perhaps I need to add 'florist' to his dj and cocktail-making party skills now ;).
The flamingoes were borrowed from a friend but I kind of wish I had bought them to be honest as I'd be very happy for them them live in my garden forever! Looking at them just makes me happy :)
We decided to have a bbq dinner so everyone brought their favorite meat, veggies and salads.
I also prepared the following items:
- Jerk chicken with mango salsa
- Shrimp accras (fritters)
- Hawaiian-style BBQ pulled pork sandwiches
- Pina colada cupcakes (people raved about them so I'd definitely recommend this recipe!)
- A fruit platter + watermelon slices
It ended up being quite a feast!
'Tropical party' equals 'punch' (in my mind anyway) so I made two big batches of 'Tropical Paradise' punch using the recipe below.
Tropical Paradise punch
- 1 1/2 cup of spiced dark rum
- 2 cups pineapple juice
- 2 cups orange juice
- 1/2 cup cointreau (you can also use triple sec)
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- orange slices ( the equivalent to 1 orange)
- lime slices (equivalent of 1 lime)
- ice
We also offered beer, sparkling wine, and juices. One of my friends also made a yummy virgin cocktail punch.
We started the evening with a 'party in paradise' type mix we found on Spotify. It was a great way to get people into the right mood from the moment they walked in!
Have you ever thrown a tropical themed party? Any favorite recipes or tips you'd like to share? I'd love to know!

MIE Solutions Releases Graphical Nesting Capability
MIE Solutions Releases Cloud-based Managed Services For MIE Trak Pro
MIE Trak Pro Is Now Available On The Cloud!
Monday, February 22, 2016 - Garden Grove, CA - MIE Solutions (www.mie-solutions.com) today announced cloud-based managed services for their MIE Trak Pro ERP offering.
There are a number of areas that set our MIE Trak Pro cloud-based offering apart from others in the industry. A couple major differences are:
1) Overall Cost of Ownership – Many cloud-based providers own their software and charge a monthly subscription fee for you to access it, and your data, on their server. Our MIE Trak Pro cloud-based offering is different in that YOU own the software and licensing. Whether or not you continue to host MIE Trak Pro on our cloud-based managed service, your data and our MIE Trak Pro software is yours, you own it; and because you own it an accelerated depreciation allowance of up to $500,000 can be taken in the first year.
2) Dedicated vs. Multi-Tenant Databases – Many cloud-based offerings are multi-tenant which means your data is hosted on server farms along with other company's data and the software provider dictates when software and features are updated. Our MIE Trak Pro cloud-based offering is different in that your data is stored on a dedicated server, not stored with others, and through our managed services you have control of software and feature updates. In addition, MIE Solutions makes your database available via automated backup when you need it, and as frequently as you want it.
About MIE Solutions
MIE Solutions is a worldwide leading supplier of advanced technology for the manufacturing community. We offer a variety of innovative software products for integrating business data, allowing organizations to make informed decisions for streamlining their business processes, resulting in maximum efficiency and immediate ROI. Companies of all sizes have used our products to bring their business to the next level, improving their manufacturing productivity and quality.

Evolution E02 is a mirror for a small hall. It is composed by a panel with two chromed pvc feet which has to lean anyway against the wall in order to conceal the clothes hangers placed on the back. Jackets, coats and scarves find here their ideal collocation. The panel front is equipped with a full length rectangular mirror and 4 resistant metal hooks for hats, bags and keys.
The vertical panel takes up only 45 cm of width; thanks to its reduced size it is ideal in houses with small entrance halls.
