'Degeneration Punk '76-'79' é un documental dirixido por Claude Santiago para o canle británico BBC en 1997.
Punk rock is an anti-establishment rock music genre and movement that emerged in the mid-1970s. Preceded by a variety of protopunk music of the 1960s and early 1970s, punk rock developed between 1974 and 1977 in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia, where groups such as the Ramones, Sex Pistols, and The Clash were recognized as the vanguard of a new musical movement.
Punk rock bands, eschewing the perceived excesses of mainstream 1970s rock, created fast, hard music, typically with short songs, stripped-down instrumentation and often political or nihilistic lyrics. The associated punk subculture expresses youthful rebellion and is characterized by distinctive clothing styles, a variety of anti-authoritarian ideologies, and a DIY (do it yourself) attitude.
Punk rock became a major phenomenon in the United Kingdom during the late 1970s; its popularity elsewhere was more limited. During the 1980s, forms of punk rock emerged in small scenes around the world, often rejecting commercial success and association with mainstream culture. By the turn of the century, punk rock's legacy had led to the development of the alternative rock movement, and new punk rock bands popularized the genre decades after its first heyday.

Vespoli's 'Devious Daddies & Daughters'
13.08.2015 | Los Angeles, California, USA – Porn fans lusting for the secret thrill of XXX incest, beware: Dana Vespoli's newest video hits close to home.
The depraved director has found a growing audience for content catering to porn's "taboo relations" niche, and her latest entry goes to psychosexual extremes. "Devious Daddies & Daughters" depicts sociopathic guardians and the badass stepdaughters in their charge. Vespoli compares "Devious Daddies & Daughters" to previous "taboo faux incest stories" she's created: "Unlike 'My Evil Stepson' and 'My Evil Stepmom Fucked My Ass,' where the dynamic is more 'predator and prey,' the stepdads and stepdaughters in 'Devious' are complicit in being bad.
Sometimes the dad initiates and sometimes the daughter does. I enjoy the psychological aspects of seduction and sex, and observing how the characters rationalize and justify their relationship. Taboo relations videos are the rage, and Dana's are outrageous," says Evil Angel Domestic Sales Manager Justin Rich. "Every one she does sells more than the last one, so we're excited to see how far 'Devious Daddies & Daughters' can go."

What Disney's Frozen taught me about Catechism
As someone who believes that God has given Christian parents the primary responsiblity for raising their children "in the discipline and the instruction of the Lord" (Eph 6:4), I have always been a strong advocate of catechism.

The oversized invitation to the Raf Simons show on Wednesday night had both the designer's and that of the American artist Sterling Ruby emblazon across its front. It was quite a significant statement from the Belgian designer who felt the collection was a completely collaborative effort between himself and Ruby.
The two men have been friends for almost a decade. And if the duo is to be believed, this collection has been percolating between them for almost as long. "We have a lot of similarities both in esthetics but also, you know, likes and dislikes across the board: music, culture, geography, politics, colors," said Ruby about what drew the two artists together.
What this meant on the catwalk was a riotous sartorial explosion of two creative minds coming together to create something bigger and bolder then either one could have accomplished on his own. From Simons came the expertly balanced proportions. His deftly executed oversized outerwear and slim ankle length pants becoming the perfect foil for Ruby's multi medium forms of self expression. So that a sporty black pullover top would be embellished with "iron on" images of the gaping jaws of a shark, hands clawing the fabric with dagger like nails or random works like "father" or "Abus Lang" designed to provoke a reaction- any reaction- in the audience.
There was a real exploration of texture in the collection. Coats and tops came covered in random strips of fabrics, rainbow stripes lined up along cuffs or hems, and knitted sweaters adorned with thick knitted patches gave the garments an even chunkier silhouette. All of it paired with bulbous toed "Olive Oyl" boots and a few slim attaché cases or mini sleeping bag-esque totes.
After the show Simons said, "I really don't see this as my brand. I see this as our brand." A truism if ever there was one.

In her book, "The Second Sex," Simone de Beauvoir states, "All oppression creates a state of war" (Source here). For the sake of this post, I'm considering oppression in the form of reductive or absent media portrayals, although oppression as a concept can be seen differently in a myriad of institutions today. Regarding representation, bell hooks underlines the absence of black women in television and cinema in "The Oppositional Gaze," stating that "black female spectators have had to develop looking relations within a cinematic context that constructs our presence as absence" (bell hooks 118). Similarly, Patricia Hill Collins examines objectifying portrayals of black men that reduce them to their body or genitalia in "Booty Call: Sex, Violence, and Images of Black Masculinity" (Hill Collins 152-162). These media representations, or absence of representations, further oppress minorities by limiting viewers' perceptions of them. If constantly present in the media, these objectifying images work to dehumanize the identities of the portrayed "oppressed group," both in the eyes of the majority group and the minority groups. I can imagine these forms of oppression enhancing inner conflicts among individuals who feel as though their personal identity does not coincide with inaccurate media imagery. Therefore, in addition to the obvious conflict created between oppressor and the oppressed, I think oppression can create a sort of internal war among individuals that are labeled as oppressed.

7 Ways to Make Your Online Business Stand Out in 2017
As you look to position your online business for growth and better profits this year, here are essential things to do to be on the path of success and your corporate vision.
Keep pace with new technology
With technology advancing at the speed of light, you could be struggling to catch up if you don't keep pace with trends and industry developments as a digital business CEO. In many industries and niches, a lot of things could change within a short time and could mean you could suddenly become outdated or less effective than the competition.
So, you need to always be on the constant updates on existing technology in your market. With increased digitisation and more access to information and their consumerism instincts, your customers are more likely to seek information on the latest developments. If you don't keep up with them as a CEO or marketer, you may be overlooked for the next competition.
Customise your web design
There are thousands of great looking templates to download on the internet and use for your website, but sooner than later you will come across a website that has an uncanny similarity with yours. That makes you less unique and outstanding.
To enhance your distinction and brand appeal in the marketplace, it's advisable to invest in developing a bespoke website that is both aesthetically pleasing and has great user experience. Free Parking is just one of the providers of quality website builders that can allow you to create a unique web presence. You can get started here www.freeparking.co.nz/website-builder.
Build a solid brand identity
In business, it is important to define your brand personality and work towards clearly creating that image in the minds of your target audience.
According to Amazon founder, Jeff Bezos, branding is what people say about you when you're not present.
So, what do present, past and prospective customers say about your business and products, different from what you say about yourself and your brand in adverts? What kind of brand identity do you communicate, consciously or subconsciously?
However, creating the desired brand personality is a highly professional work that should be left for an expert and experienced copywriting and reputation management agency. With hundreds of highly successful branding campaigns for different top global brands using a variety of expertly crafted and widely distributed copywriting services, a reputable writing company can become a reliable business partner for the long haul.
Get active on social media
You certainly are not just becoming aware of the importance of the social media. It's one of the most effective yet cheapest marketing and branding tool available to businesses today, with great potentials to boost your brand awareness, connect more with your audience and drive traffic to your site.
Of course, you know of all these immense advantages, but to what degree have you explored and exploited it? Have you taped into the powers and influence of Facebook and Twitter with your business?
Become an industry resource centre
Customers are always seeking for solutions or answers to their problems. To stand out from the crowd of the competition, you must show you're competent to satisfy these needs, not just with physical products but also relevant, useful information.
You need to develop an integrated contents marketing strategy that makes your business website, blog, social media handle and all other expressions of your online presence a resource hub for your target market. This will in turn boost your SERP ranking and organic traffic flow to your site.
Take more risks
Think about that innovative business idea that occupied your thought or that someone suggested to you, but you've been scared to try it because… well, because no one has tried it before. So, you play safe and continue with the normal, old pattern of doing things and get the normal results as you've getting previously.
In business, getting to the next level is mostly about taking risks; and boldness has a way for rewarding the taker.
Whether it's an untested marketing strategy that sounds and looks exciting, or a blog post that could cause a stir and has viral potentials, or a new logo that's unconventional, it's perfectly fine to experiment and see what works for your business.
It's okay to flow with the rules and standards of the industry, but for less important parts of your business, it's safe to try something new occasionally.
Improve customer service
Regardless of whether your business is a service company or not, or whether it has a already good score on customer care or not, now is the time to show your customers they're king and treat them like royalty.
An important fact most businesses overlook is that customers place emphasis on the way they're treated a lot more than previously thought and make inferences. In fact, one survey shows that 75% of customers assess the competence of a business based on their customer service.

The Internet has proven a raging success for those that like to shop. Though it is a simple thing to do, shopping online with success requires good information. Read this article for some helpful tips you can use when bargain hunting on the Internet.
Scour the Internet for coupon codes. Many stores offer discounts, but you have to search for them. Just enter the word "coupon" along with the name of your favorite store and see what discounts you can find. Doing this will save you tons of money when shopping online.
When you look at a store that's new online, make it a point to read over any terms and conditions they may have up along with their privacy policy. This includes how they use your information, how they protect it and what your responsibilities are as a shopper. If there is something in there that you don't agree on, you should get in touch with the retailer before you buy. With the competition on the Internet, you should not shop with a site that follows shady policies.
Prior to beginning any online fish suppy shopping event, be sure you have updated your antivirus protection. Online aqurium shopping provides a haven for scammers. Con artists attempt to hijack your vital information and even put together entirely phony online stores in the hopes of gaining access to your computer. Take precautions before visiting any online store, even if they appear reputable.
You should think about signing up for Amazon Prime if you are a frequent Amazon shopper. For only $79, you can save a bundle. You are able to get discounts on both same day and overnight deliveries as well as free two day shipping. Plus, you have access to a great library of movies that you can stream for free. This allows you to save quite a bit overall!
Ensure you always conduct your online fish suppy shopping on a secured computer connection, such as your home Internet. Hackers use public connections to steal other people's information.
Online aqurium shopping is very easy. Actually, it's sometimes better to shop online than in stores. But you need to know a bit about the process before you jump in. Hopefully, you have learned all you needed to know from here to shop smarter.

MII also has information, posters, links, lesson plans, and packets for teachers (of at least the elementary grades, maybe adaptable for higher grades). Most of the support material (posters and other things) cost money; the information and "packets" are free. Some of these things are probably more useful than others - a teacher would have to evaluate them.

Catholic Dictionary
The process or fact of accommodating religious belief and practice to the dominant culture of a society. It may be either praiseworthy or blameworthy, depending on whether a religion, notably Catholicism, is strengthened or weakened by the adaptation. It is strengthened when Catholic faith and morality become more effective in transforming the culture. It is weakened when Catholic principles are compromised to make them more acceptable to the people.

In the news today: MINTEL -a global and award-winning provider of market research-
informs today that STEVIA keeps growing as an ingredient.
Following their research, growth is 487% between 2011 and 2015,
and this exponential growth figure represents only the CSD category!
Reason for growth: consumer are increasingly becoming aware of its all natural and zero calorie status!
Furthermore they informed: "Stevia may become more of an advantageous ingredient if governments continue to pursue taxes on sugar-sweetened products"
"in this era of government intervention, Stevia may become more attractive to manufacturers as well as consumers, not only for formulation, but also to help make products more affordable than those that are sweetened with sugar and, therefore, subject to taxes."
HANDS UP FOR MINTEL!Interested to get also STEVIA products on your shelf, speak to SWEET-SWITCH, we have the largest range in the planet of Stevia sweetened products and are willing and eager to get you on board as well. Welcome to the wonderful world of SWEET-SWITCH

Tonight, it's the Sazerac.
Chill a double old fashioned glass.
Pour two to three tsp simple syrup in a 1 cup glass measuring cup. I use two, I like it strong, less sweet.
Add 6 dashes Peychaud bitters, 2 dashes Angustora bitters.
Top off with Rye whiskey (I used Bulleitt) to make 100 ml. That's just under 3 oz whiskey.
Pour into a shaker with about a cup of ice.
Stir. Don't shake.
Rinse chilled glass with absinthe. I used Sirene. Discard absinthe. Your mouth makes a fine drain.
Rub rim with a large twist of lemon, throw lemon twist into glass.
Strain rye mixture into glass.
Enjoy responsibly.

Book Description
Don't be mistaken. Champion's Handbook isn't a motivational book. More specifically, it isn't merely a motivational book. Most motivational books are about following others' lives and reading success stories. But Champion's Handbook encourages you to write your own successful life story. This book doesn't ask its readers to bring about drastic changes in their lives, nor does it contain dozens of foolish exercises that they may even forget after turning a few pages. Written in casual style, this book will help tweak their lives to attain success in their respective fields.It is casual and is meant to invoke a deeper sense of you, in you. Going through it promises to be an intimate experience, one that can actually help you achieve your aims and transcend them. A refreshing view is provided on some previously agreed upon topics, like anger being good, belief even when no one does among others. Beginning with addressing you as the underdog and emphasizing on acceptance as the first step towards betterment, it touches on all the aspects that make and break a champion. The aim is not the destination, but the journey. The journey from underdog, to champion.

I'm an Account Manager based out office in Australia. I actively promote our high quality products by engaging in discussions with our loyal and friendly customer network. My role has opened my professional network; being in contact with scientists within the academic, clinical and industrial sectors.
I started as a research scientist working in the areas of Immunology and Molecular Biology. Working as an Account Manager is a new and exciting endeavour, which has allowed me to use my expertise and understanding of molecular biology to find the right solution to our customers' needs.
I enjoy that no week is the same; holding morning teas, trade displays at conferences or paying regular visits to our customers. Having this constant contact with the scientific community means I am continually updated with the advancements in research and the latest technologies improving our progress of scientific research.
For everything to proceed as efficiently as possible from point of contact with a customer to the sale, there is a lot of behind the scene action from my colleagues, without whom it wouldn't be possible. I regularly communicate with my fellow account managers, sales director, marketing, technical, finance and office support staff. I'm quite fortunate to be in a position with continual support. You really do feel as if you're part of a family network here at Bioline, whether it's within our Australian team or if it's during Skype chats with our colleagues overseas.
It is great to be present at such an exciting time where a company is expanding their product portfolio. Bioline is entering into different markets of the life science industry with both quality and innovative products.
As an Account Manager it is both gratifying and fulfilling when a customer has returned with a glowing review of a product you have discussed with them... or when they believe they've known you for 2 – 3 years plus!

Capability Analysis Tool to enhance training and assessment
VETCAT® is designed specifically to record the skill levels of VET trainers and assessors. Additionally, VETCAT® is designed to capture the demand for professional development among staff.
Following receipt of the VETCAT® data, not only will organisations know the skill levels of its teachers and trainers, they will also have a clear idea of the types of professional development that staff are willing to undertake and the skills they want to develop.
Why use VETCAT®?
VET practitioners need extensive skills to perform their professional work because governments and the community have high expectations that the sector can produce high-skilled, work-ready, adaptable graduates who can continue learning throughout their careers.
VET practitioners will need even more skills in future as VET practice continually changes due to:
- increased competition between training providers, introducing new levels of flexibility and innovation in delivery and assessment
- client and customer demand for more customisation and if possible personalisation of learning services
- the emergence of new technologies in areas such as e-learning
- the need to meet new or revised VET regulatory standards
- the need to accommodate shifts in industry brought about by forces such as new technology, government policies and competition between companies
- the need to acknowledge new trends and priorities, illustrated by recent additions to VET practice to accommodate sustainability issues and the Australian Core Skills Framework (ACSF).
By helping organisations identify areas of demand for professional development activity, VETCAT® can help ensure that the workforce is able to accommodate continual changes in VET practice, and respond effectively to the factors driving those changes.
Skills measured in VETCAT®
VETCAT® provides data about
VETCAT® provides your organisation's senior managers with an accurate assessment of:
- practitioners' current skills and gaps, compared with national averages
- professional development needs of your trainers and assessors, whether they are full or part-time, permanent or casual
- their demand for professional development.
For the individual, VETCAT® provides the practitioner with data that will enable them to review their strengths and gaps, and to plan their own professional learning program.
VETCAT® components include:
- a staff awareness strategy and a launch workshop
- an online survey that generates immediate reports for individual respondents
- provision of group reports and a debrief for the organisation
- advice and direction about ongoing development
- guidance for ongoing reflection and discussion in the organisation about future business growth directions.
The VETCAT® survey consists of 130 questions about 66 skills and includes questions about the respondents' attitudes, motivations and aspirations.

These lovely knickers on a string are carved out of wood, people! I really can't believe the amazing art of Venetian artist Livio De Marchi. He makes the most unbelievable things out of wood. Flick through the picture gallery above to see for yourself. It really blew my mind.
I absolutely adore the lingerie, socks and bras hanging on the washing lines. And the shopping bag with the leaning umbrella. He has even done a dog and a golf bag, complete with clubs. Enough said; just enjoy De Marchi's sculptural wood carvings, they are nothing short of genius.
The artist was born in Venezia and since he was a child he has been occupied with crafting ornamental sculptures. On his website you can see much more of his work, which even includes glass artworks.

Newswise — According to preliminary results of an ongoing study at Columbus Children's Hospital, to be presented at the American Headache Society's June meeting in Chicago, parents of adolescents with migraines may have an influence on the level of pain reported.
Approximately 10 percent of children and adolescents get migraines, and as many as two percent suffer from chronic migraines, meaning 15 or more headaches a month. Nearly nine times out of 10, those kids come from families who have a history of migraines, and although the migraines may be shared, researchers aren't convinced the pain is necessarily the same.
"We want to know how much of a child's response to migraine pain is learned and how much is hereditary," said lead author Ann Pakalnis, MD, a neurologist at Columbus Children's and a faculty member of The Ohio State University College of Medicine.
The study examined the relationship between parental reports of their own disability due to chronic pain conditions and migraine related disability as reported by their adolescents. Researchers looked at twenty adolescents, ages 12 to 17 years, who averaged between one and 15 moderate to severe migraines each month, and their parents. Nearly 93 percent of parents in the sample reported having at least one chronic pain condition. Researchers found there was a significant correlation between the pain reported by parents and that reported by their children or teens.
Preliminary data from this ongoing study suggests those parents who report more disability due to chronic pain conditions rate their adolescents as being more disabled and have adolescents who report being more disabled by migraines. Parental disability was also positively correlated with adolescents' reports of both number and severity of symptoms experienced.
"When talking with children individually, they tend to report less pain and disability," said Pakalnis. "On the other hand, adults with a history of chronic pain tend to over-report their child's perception of migraine pain as compared to parents or guardians that do not have a chronic pain problem."
These results, if supported by further data collection and analysis, may have significant clinical implications for the assessment and treatment of migraines in the adolescent population. Inaccurate pain reporting could lead to unnecessary treatment or excessive medication.
"No one doubts these kids suffer from migraines," says Dr. Pakalnis. "But if we can better understand their individual level of pain, we can develop individual treatments that are best for them."
Since the level of pain tolerance varies from one person to the next, doctors say it's important that parents don't make assumptions about their child's pain or speak for their child during doctors' visits.

Do your customers tell you that your eCommerce site is a joy to shop? Probably not! While some people really do love online shopping, few rave about the actual buying experience.
We shop for goods and services we need or want. Whether or not we enjoy the shopping experience is partly a personal preference, partly the ability of the merchant to read customers. Unlike brick and mortar store owners, eCommerce businesses don't have the opportunity to judge body language and see if customers appear satisfied. At best, they can offer real-time or automated chat assistance.
When it comes to the ultimate shopping commitment, brick and mortar stores have it pretty easy. They take the payment, swipe (usually), and bag items small enough to be carried. Customers rarely change their minds and literally abandon a shopping cart once they get in line to buy.
If only eCommerce business owners had it this easy! Instead, they are presented with depressing website statistics that point out cart abandonment and site bounce rates. They don't have a chance to turn the charm on customers who are about to make a quick exit.
While a creative, thoughtful designer can make an eCommerce site a straightforward and satisfying shopping experience, parting with your money is never fun. But there are ways to make the actual checkout process less of a hassle for customers, and maybe even lower the cart abandonment rate in the process.

South America, Venezuela, Upigma Tepui (2,200m), South Face, The Hospital Breakout
Upigma Tepui (2,200m), south face, The Hospital Breakout. The Gran Sabana holds some of the world's most majestic big walls, rising dramatically above rainforest. In February 2012 Cory Nauman, Alfredo Zubillaga, and I flew to the region to establish a new route on Upigma Tepui in the Canaima National Park.
Chartering a Cessna aircraft we landed at the native village of Yunek. Hiring porters we set off on the approach, negotiating grassland plateau, jungle, and river systems.
Simply reaching the base of a tepui is an adventure in itself. Using machetes we cut through dense jungle. After two days of trail blazing Cory got bitten by an unknown venomous snake. His foot turned black and swelled to twice its normal size. We abandoned most of our equipment to speed up the rescue. Two days later we found ourselves back at Yunek, which had a radio. Miraculously a Cessna was passing through a neighboring valley, heard our distress call, and flew us to Santa Eleana, located on the border of Brazil. Cory received five-star treatment from the hospital staff but after three days wanted to leave for further treatment in the U.S. The hospital refused to release him, so Alfredo and I staged a hospital breakout and got Cory to Miami.
One member down, Alfredo and I went to salvage our equipment. We were now short of time but still decided to try a new line. After ferrying loads for many days, we arrived at the base of our proposed route, which was 400m high and the largest overhang I had ever laid eyes on. We eased into the complexities of routefinding on the first three pitches. After the third pitch the overhanging nature of the rock became more immediately apparent, and the climbing tested my limits as we solved the overhanging puzzle. Crack systems linked to horizontal breaks, providing well-protected climbing, though with occasional unprotected sections for up to eight m.
Alfredo handled the pressure like a heavyweight climbing champ. I'd never seen someone grin so effortlessly while cruxing out on a runout 5.12+ pitch. Most of the climbing was free, with the exception of pitch 11, a tenuous A2+ with two tension traverses, and pitch 12, C2+ with mandatory 5.11-.
It was a relief to pass the last overhang and hit thick jungle on top the tepui. That night, perched on our ledge, we celebrated The Hospital Breakout (520m of climbing, 14 pitches, V, 5.12+, A2+) with a bottle of rum. And Cory is alive and climbing, after receiving further medical attention in Miami. The Hospital Breakout turned out to be more than just a new route—an epic odyssey and adventure.

-Hosting style. Any significant issues anybody had? Namely, I want to make sure that everybody felt that the game was run smoothly and objectively. Any feedback, positive or negative, is appreciated.
- We can do it this day
I can't do it that day, how about this day
That day's no good, I like the original day
Neither of those days works for me, do it this day
repeat ad nauseum
That was probably the best part of the season. It made for some good discussions and challenge additions.-Private forums for each tribe. Good idea? Bad idea? Did it enhance the game for you? Personally I like the format a lot because it gives us some more freedom in running challenges, but I know that some felt it may have made things less exciting.
It was pretty damn great, but it really seemed to drag after the merge. That was when all the self votes and the like happened, so I know I'm not alone in thinking that. I think with the absolute obviousness that Jon was controlling the game from behind the scenes also caused it to be not as great, but that's mainly because nobody else really had the balls to go against him.-Overall take on the season, taking everything into account (challenges, cast, boot order, etc.). One of the best? Worst of all time? I personally would say top 3 but I'm sure some will disagree.
Honestly, the reboot made it better, simply because we all weren't waiting for the last two people to join because we need all new contestants and nobody will join. Personally, I think even if we have practically the same cast as last time it could turn out to be a different game.MIXING OLD AND NEW PLAYERS: My guess is that this is a necessity in the future given the pool of available contestants, but ultimately it's probably something that should be left up to the host of a given season. Unlike the real show, having "veterans" and "newbies" playing together doesn't seem to impact the dynamic, and I think this was probably the best cast ever, at least since season 1. Works for me.
I think the problem here is that the first challenge shouldn't have had an immediate loss if one of the members was MIA. Save that for something like the third, where everyone will know who's contributing and get rid of them beforehand.RANDOMLY SELECTED TRIBES: Not a bad idea in theory, but didn't play out too well. Challenge-wise, I think the tribes were pretty balanced, at least on paper, but a lot of alliances were mapped out by luck of the draw. Plus, the nature of the first challenge almost guaranteed that the MIA FreakyGeeky's team would lose. Maybe a pick'em would've worked better.
That's probably the best solution. I think email reminders or something that someone hasn't voted is probably a good thing because I logged on to vote to find out I had already been kicked. That might be a bit much to do, though.REMOVING INACTIVES: This is the biggest question mark of the season for me, because I didn't have a plan for it in advance and I had to make a call on the fly pretty much. It's something we definitely need to come up with an accepted rule for...you don't want inactive players outlasting everyone else because they aren't threats, but you don't want to disrupt anyone's strategy either. My suggestion in the future: the first time a player neglects to vote, it's a warning. After that, self-votes become cumulative and add up every single round. So basically, players in the minority can use that to their advantage, but it doesn't disrupt the schedule either.

50,000 open data analytics jobs currently expected to double to 100,000 in 2018
The Indian IT industry is expected to add around 1.80 lakh to 2 lakh new jobs in 2018. With a strong focus on Digital India, the industry requires 50 percent more workforce. AI alone will create 2.3 million jobs globally by 2020, said Alka Dhingra, General Manager, IT staffing, TeamLease Services, a recruitment company.
The domestic IT job market is in a revival mode. Job seekers and techies with right skills will be in a 'great' position to capitalize on this trend, said Ravi Kaklasaria, CEO & Co-Founder, SpringPeople, a corporate training and certification provider.
Jump in demand
One in five companies will use AI to make decisions in 2018. It will help companies offer customised solutions and instructions to employees in real-time.
Old generation text analytics platforms were complex. Few companies were successful in analyzing text data. With deep learning in AI, it will be possible to successfully analyze both structured and unstructured text data, he said.
"We expect a 60 percent increase in demand for AI and machine learning specialists in 2018," said BN Thammaiah, Managing Director, Kelly Services India. The increase in the demand for AI and ML specialists will be from 20,000 to 32,000 in 2018 even as the IT sector will continue to hire for newer skills, he said.
An AI professional with 2-4 years experience will earn annually ₹15-20 lakh, while for 4-8 years it would be ₹20-50 lakh, he said.
New age streams
A Kamal Karanth, Co-founder, Xpheno, a recruitment company, said in sectors such as IT, FinTech and e-commerce there would be a scramble for AI engineers to prepare for the next 3-5 years. N Shivakumar, Business Head, Recruitment Process Outsourcing, TeamLease, said auto companies are relying on AI, analytics, business intelligence and Cloud for industrial automation.
The emergence of new age digital disciplines such as BlockChain will start to penetrate the e-com industry in 2018. Data scientists will also be in good demand as they would be able to gather, process, synthesize and analyze both volumes of structured and unstructured data.
Currently, India has over 50,000 open data analytics jobs on the market and this is expected to grow to 100,000 in 2018, said Kaklasaria.

It's March 2012, and Young the Giant have had a jam packed couple of years. Now they're on a nearly sold out U.S. tour, bringing their "sun soaked" sound all the way down to the sunniest places of them all, Fort Lauderdale. Before their show at the Culture Room, we spoke to drummer, Francois Comtois about touring, the VMA's, and what makes Young the Giant so soothing on the ear.
Since your debut in 2010, things seemed to kickstart pretty quickly- With your single "My Body" peaking on the Billboard Charts, and your recent performance at the VMA's, were you prepared for the public's adoring reaction?
Francois: Although most people have only fairly recently gotten to know our work, we definitely feel as though we spent a good deal of time paying our dues on the touring front. It now seems like those years spent feeling exhausted and, at times, frustrated, helped keep us grounded in the face of such a radical rise in recognition.
Speaking of readiness, your live shows seem to be a big part of your appeal as a band. You've received a lot of attention for your shows, such as the aforementioned VMA's, Lollapalooza, and iTunes sessions. Any pre-show rituals that contribute to your on-stage dynamic?
Francois: People are usually surprised to see how mellow we are before we play. On any given night, our pre-show ritual consist of sitting around, drinking tea and a little whisky and trying to focus our energy on the task at hand. Then, as were getting ready to walk out on stage, its as if a switch flips inside of us and the adrenaline begins coursing through our veins. Kind of a silence before the storm scenario.
Nowadays, the industry seems to be coming up with a whole new spectrum of whacky genre names to pinpoint up and coming bands. How would you describe your sound as a genre, without any preconceived notions from critics?
Francois: Hyphy-crunk-pseudo-funk-pop-rock-acoustica.
How does it feel to be headlining such an anticipated excursion?
Francois: There was a whole range of emotions leading into this run, ranging from elation to panic. On one hand, we most definitely felt some pressure to deliver on our first real headlining run. On the other, just the thought of playing our music to fans in some of the most amazing theaters/venues in the country made us giddy as schoolgirls.
The music and lyrics on your record convey a strong sense of emotion and honesty. How would you say you go about the writing process? Do you focus on the lyrics first to guide the sound, or vice versa?
Francois: Our songwriting process is deeply collaborative (every member of the band participates and has an equal voice) so, as a result; there is a tendency for the music to precede the lyrics in many of our songs. That being said, sometimes the vocal melody or lyrical content can help steer the arrangement in a different direction. The most important thing that weve learned in our experience is never to go into the studio with preconceptions about how things should turn out.
Have you started thinking about your next album? If so, what do you think these last couple of years have given you that may contribute to a follow up record?
Francois: I think it's safe to say that weve been thinking about our second record since the day the first one dropped. Recently, we were able to take a few months to settle down in LA and get to writing. As sentient human beings, we draw a lot of our inspiration from the sights, sounds, encounters, etc. in life. Seeing as the last two years of our lives have been heavily dominated by touring, you can bet that good portion of the next record will draw from the unique situations weve been lucky enough to experience and the lessons weve learned together.

text: A series finale is always exhilarating, yet sad experience. Characters and plots may come to fruition, but its always sad to see them go. Such is the case with Prince of Storms by Kay Kenyon, out this month courtesy of Pyr Books. Devoted followers of the saga covering the broad and rich universe of the Rose and the Entire wont be disappointed as the battle comes to a climax in an unforgettable cross-dimensional clash that winds up the questions left by the third book, City without End. The rich universe of the Rose and the Entire created by Mrs. Kenyon knows few equals, and approaches The Lord of the Rings or Frank HerbertsDune in scope. We only regret that we came into this saga half-way; some of the background provided online has been illuminating!

Battalion 5; Information 1
Lebec, CA
Just before 1:30 this afternoon, the Kern County FireDepartment received a call from CHP advising of a Toyota Prius on fire with approximately 20x20 feet of grass on fire. Units from Lebec, Frazier Park, Tejon, Lamont and Greenfield responded to the incident along with Crew 10 out of Lebec. Truck 55 extinguished the vehicle fire while other KCFD units tied into roads and extended hose lines around the fire. KCFD Helicopter 407 also responded from Keene and made multiple water drops holding the fire to 6.7 acres. A fast uphill rate of spread toward homes in Digier Canyon prompted the Incident Commander to order Fire Engines for structure protection. As crews were able to get the upper hand on this fire, those extra resources were cancelled. Environmental Health was responded to evaluate leaking battery acid from the vehicle.
Evacuations: Initiated in Digier Canyon and cancelled
Road Closures: CHP closed the #3 and #4 lanes but they have since been reopened
Assisting Agencies: CHP, KC Environmental Health, USFS (1 Division Chief and 1 Engine)
Additional Information: Earlier today, Kern County Firefighters and community supporters had gathered at Station 56 in Lebec to declare the Re-Opening of Golden Empire Crew 10. The extra firefighters on this 16-person hand crew proved extremely valuable for Initial Attack only hours later on this fire.

My Review: Hey I am posting today about Abbamart makeup cream highlighter.
Highlighter is a product that can completely change your beauty look. If applied correctly, it gives you that glowing look where people can't place what's different, just that you look amazing. When you're choosing a highlighter you have to think about your skin tone; if you have very sallow skin, pink toned highlighters are going to stick out, but if you have very pale skin pink tones are perfect.
I got the pink one for review.

95% of all my Vietnam figures are from FPM and they have great character and dynamic poses.
I met Jimmi the new owner, at CanCon and was immediately struck by his enthusiasm for his line and the projects he has for it. He is now reinvigorating the company website (here: http://flashpoint-miniatures.com/) and is planning to get some new rules out in the next year or so. Excellent!

Food and Wine Festival 'must-try' item: Kimchi dog with spicy mustard sauce
2013 Epcot Food and Wine Festival featured items
The Epcot International Food and Wine Festival starts this week! We got the opportunity to taste some of the new items on the menu for this year and will show you some of our favorites leading up to the festival.
Also see: Must-try item: Frozen s'more
One of the unique items on the menu this year that you have to try is the kimchi dog with spicy mustard sauce at the South Korean marketplace. However, if you don't like spicy food, you can take a pass on this one.
With the first bite, you'll taste the sweetness of the kimchi marinade followed by the spicy kick of the mustard sauce and sausage.
"The most spicy thing is the sausage, because that has a lot of Korean red chile in it," said Disney chef Jens Dahlmann.
The soft bread and soft consistency of the sausage make it easy to bite into.
"The big thing we had to work on was texture. The texture was really off before. Either it was too dense or too soft," Dahlmann said.
Dahlman said the process of creating the dog took six months to perfect. If it's too spicy, get some soju (a South Korean liquor), to mellow things out.

Memorial Day Weekend with Neutrogena Suncare is is a compensated campaign in collaboration with NEUTROGENA® and Latina Bloggers Connect.
Memorial day weekend kicks off summer in our world. Being a home school family has so many advantages and this year I find it more important than ever to not only teach my kids curriculum based knowledge, but I am strongly pushing to lead by example. Often times my husband and I giggle when one of our boys says or does something we do. Our children are sponges and love to be mini me's. As I planned for Memorial day weekend, I wanted to make it as carefree as possible. Every single thing I do in life is a reflection of who I am. I make decisions with my kids in mind. We asked the kids what they wanted to do on Monday. Hit the pool, catch a movie, go bowling… It was a consensus that we hit our local gym for a few hours at the pool. I packed a travel cooler with sandwiches, fruit and hibiscus tea for lunch. It's all about healthy options and skipping the junk food. In our pool bag I make sure to pack my favorite Neutrogena suncare products, sunglasses for everyone and UV swim shirts.
As we enter summer I made it a point to talk with the boys about the dangers of sun exposure and how important it is to have proper sun care. Paying attention to our body and always being aware of skin changes. As we got ready to head to the pool, I couldn't help but marvel at everything they remembered. I had previously talked about how we don't have to wait until we are in direct sunlight to wear sunscreen. It's good practice to apply sunscreen before we head out of the house to go anywhere. We stood at the door way and I reached in my purse for the Ultra Sheer® Face + Body Stick Sunscreen. This easy to apply stick is a great size to toss in my everyday bag. It swipes on your skin easily and doesn't leave a sticky or greasy residue. Perfect for my face, neck and arms.
[Tweet "Adopt healthy habits and #ChooseSkinHealth @Neutrogena"]
For the boys, I opted for the Neutrogena Wet Skin Kids Sunscreen Spray. This easy to apply spray has an SPF 70+ and it can go on wet skin. No need to worry about drying off your precious little ones in between a day at the pool. I opt to use the bodystick on my boys faces and neck, because potentially spraying anywhere close to their eyes makes me nervous.

and add three inches. The butterfly patch can patch a hole from two inches to twelve inches. After you measure the widest part of the damage, add three inches to your measurements and cut a new piece of drywall that size. This cut does not have to be exact. To cut the drywall, but the finished side up and score the cut lines with the razor knife, break at scored marks. Now put the finished side of the drywall face down and score the back of the drywall all the way around about 1.5 inches.
Good day to everyone out there this is Erin with Honolulu Hawaii sheet rock installation in carpentry services, as you can see we try to blog at least once a week here to our audience that understands how important it is to do high quality construction work, moreover the benefits of having a good carpenter to frame the walls prior to installing sheet rock plaster cornerbead or any other type of material that hangs off the original framing and foundation of a condominium, apartment, home, it doesn't matter where it's all about how good you are.
When the mud is dry it will turn bright white and its time to sand. Get out your sanding block. Using your sanding block, lightly sand off bumps and ridges and get it as smooth as possible. Try not to sand too far and gouge into the tape. As you sand, use your shop vac to suck up as much dust as possible because this stuff gets everywhere, and I mean everywhere, so also wear a mask. They sell a new type of drywall mud that creates less dust but I haven't tried it yet, if you have, let me know how it works.
I did not think of photographing this area before starting. Suffice it to say that the damaged area was nearly as long as the patch. It was not nearly that wide, though heavily worn. Since I was patching anyway, I made it as wide as the scrap material permitted, thus reinforcing the weakened area that tends to take the most wear on this type of seat.
