Thought video killed the radio star? Think again!
The American public's consumption of audio content has undergone a major revival in recent years, thanks in part to the emergence of mobile devices and social sharing platforms that have paved the way to more engaged and informed consumers.
Nearly 46 million Americans tune into at least one podcast per month, with avid listeners dedicating some 9.5 hours a week to their favorite serials. Furthermore, music streaming services now account for the industry's fastest-growing monetization source, accounting for 19 percent of global industry revenues in 2015.
With this in mind, it's no surprise that ad budgets are rapidly shifting in favor of programmatic audio's potential to maximize daily exposure and engagement across multiple channels.
Unlike display ads that are far more susceptible to bots, programmatic audio is better equipped to navigate around one of the industry's biggest pain points in recent years: ad fraud. What's more, audio doesn't have to compete with listener attention – which comes in handy in today's all-too-cluttered digital media environment.
Already, popular streaming platforms like Pandora have entered the market with subscription-based, on-demand products of their own; working alongside advertisers and agencies to use its listener data for more precise targeting.
The caveat? Tailoring and delivering the perfect message to listeners is far from an easy task, particularly when there isn't a set standard for measuring the success of programmatic audio against specific campaigns.
While the future of programmatic audio is currently TBD, a push from the industry to reconcile existing measurement roadblocks may very well prove to be a fruitful and worthwhile endeavor.

Wood Composite Privacy Fence
Composite privacy fence – The title of this article may seem like an oxymoron to some. It is often assumed that fence needs constant care. But it may not be the case. The key to building a wooden fence that needs no maintenance its shades of gray. Cedar will turn gray with such beautiful weather. People often stain a cedar fence to keep from turning gray. But shades of gray, the same is a free product called two other maintenance composite decking areas and vinyl fencing.
Composite decking has become the material of choice for many homeowners. One of the most popular car colors are composite privacy fence are grayed out. Composite deck manufacturers sell decking with names such as the Cape Cod gray, natural Cedar weather, wood and others. These colors are meant to mimic a lovely cedar fences are so common in the United States. Vinyl fencing is popular, as it is assumed zero maintenance. Vinyl fencing is the most common white or brown. Grey vinyl fencing costs more and is more difficult to get. Grey vinyl fencing went by the name of weathered cedar, Cedar tone and others. Again, this product is designed to look like cedar wood, which was exposed to the elements. Two popular products that is intended for maintenance is designed to look like cedar weather. This leads to an interesting question. When building a privacy fence, why not just use real cedar and get the same effect for less money?
12 Photos Gallery of: Wood Composite Privacy Fence
True composite privacy fence is made of high quality material. Cedar pickets you need at least 3/4 "strong. Thin the protesters at the box stores cannot be used, as it will warp over time. Beams are a Schmatli cedar 2 x 4 x 8. Never use wood handle as it will twist and warp, as it dries. Only part of a privacy wood fence should not Cedar post. A wood fence will take place only during post. Cedar post looks nice in the first place, and it will also change the gray. But the contribution of the wood, which eventually rots because they are in constant contact with the ground. Steel columns will never rot. Always use a steel post, which can be covered to look like wood.

Leader sports editor
In one of the most dramatic finishes of the season, Jacksonville's Keith Charleston ripped the ball away from McClellan's Terrance Jones, and along with it sole possession of first place in the 5A Central Conference. The steal came with one second left and thwarted a game-winning shot opportunity as the Red Devils held on for a 42-41 victory at McClellan High School in southwest Little Rock.
As the final buzzer sounded, Jacksonville coach Vic Joyner was much more emotional than usual.
"Because it was such an ugly game," Joyner said. "To play as poorly as we did and still fight and claw and find a way to get a win in a game as big as this, that's exciting."
The hosting Crimson Lions led for a total of 31 seconds in the first three quarters. They held a two-point lead for 17 seconds in the second quarter, and a two-point lead for 14 seconds in the third. Jacksonville (18-4, 10-1) led 35-31 by the end of the third quarter, but McClellan (15-7, 9-2) started the fourth period with a 6-0 run for a 37-35 lead with 5:50 remaining in the game. That lead didn't last long either. Jacksonville's Sergio Berkley scored on the next possession to tie the game just 32 seconds later. About two minutes later, he hit two free throws to put Jacksonville back on top.
Jones tied it with a 15-footer with 2:21 to play. After a fruitless possession by each team, Jones missed a three pointer, Jacksonville's Justin McCleary got the rebound, but was stripped by Tronsayne Ellis, who dished to Tyrin Hollis for a layup and a 41-39 McClellan lead with 1:10 left in the game.
Joyner called timeout with 59 seconds left. After the timeout, Jacksonville caught a big break. Ellis got another steal on in the inbound pass, but was called for double dribble as he made his way towards the Lions' goal.
Berkley penetrated the lane on the ensuing possession and missed, but got a trip to the free-throw line on a foul call that McClellan coach Chris Threatt was not pleased with. Berkley hit one of two free throws and Jacksonville set up the press trailing by one point with 16 seconds remaining.
Jacksonville's Brandon Brockman stripped Jones from behind along the sideline just as Jones crossed the halfcourt line. Brockman threw to McCleary who hit Charleston under the basket for a layup and a 42-41 Jacksonville lead with nine seconds remaining. Threatt called timeout to set up the last play, which saw Charleston strip Jones as he penetrated into the lane.
Threatt was vocal about his displeasure in the way the game was called in the final minute.
"If an official wants to swallow his whistle and let the players decide the game, I have no problem with that," Threatt said. "But if you're going to swallow it there right at the end, then swallow it at their end too. How do you call a foul like the one they called down there (motioning to Jacksonville's end of the floor), then swallow it for essentially the same play down here?"
Threatt also wasn't happy with the foul count in the second half.
"How is it that you have both teams pressing, both teams playing aggressive defense, but you have a foul count of 9-3 for the whole second half," Threatt said. "Three fouls for an entire half in a game played as physically as this game was played."
As far as his team is concerned, Threatt was pleased with the effort. He believed his team showed improvement since its dramatic three-point loss to the Red Devils at Jacksonville.
"I think we were better," Threatt said. "We didn't get the win, but I'll just let the game speak for itself on why that didn't happen."
Jacksonville again dominated rebounding against the larger Lions, though not by quite as much as the 36-15 advantage it enjoyed in the last game. The Red Devils won 37-23 on the boards on Friday with Charleston and Brockman leading the way with eight each.
The turnover problem reared its head again for Jacksonville, as the Red Devils committed 24, the most since mid-December.
Aaron Smith was the only Red Devil to score in double figures, finishing with 10 points. McCleary and Brockman scored eight apiece.
McClellan's Derrick Hardy led all scorers and rebounders with 15 points and nine boards.
The Red Devils hosted Helena-West Helena Central on Tuesday, then host a big home game on Friday against Pulaski Academy. The Red Devils needed overtime to beat the Bruins when the two teams met in Little Rock a month ago.

Peanut Butter is now a month old. Here are a few pictures of her. She loves to hide behind her mother.
We have come up with a name for our new baby. Since, the names of the other deer are Smore, Hershey, Marshmellow and Graham Cracker. We thought we would name the baby Peanut Butter and call her Peanut for short. We have a friend who puts peanut butter on her smores. Here are a few pictures of Peanut at 4 days old.
We had to put an ear tag on our fallow deer baby today. They have to be tagged by the time they are 1 year. But, it is easiest to do when they are very little. They are up and running quickly and it gets harder to tag them the older they get.
The first fallow deer to be born at Rosse Posse Acres was born June 12th of 2011, to Graham Cracker. She is spotted like her mother. These pictures were taken on her birthday.
Our first elk calf of 2011 was born on May 23rd. We tagged her today on the 24th. On the 23rd, my friend Cara was over visiting. She said that if it was a girl calf we needed to name her Cara and if it was a boy we needed to name him Cara's Boy. Well it is a girl. So, Cara it is!
We got our fallow deer on March 6th, 2011. We got an older chocolate doe who should be pregnant, an older blond doe who also should be pregnant, a spotted yearling doe and a spotted yearling buck. When they arrived, they were very unsure of their new surroundings and stayed away from us. They have now settled in quite well and even come up to us if we go into their compound one at a time. They weigh about 90 pounds each. To me they look kind of like a cross between an alpaca and a goat. The spike has very small antlers. He will be loosing his antlers soon and will start to grow his second set. The chocolate doe is definitely the lead deer. We should have babies at the end of May or in June, if the females are pregnant. Their compound has lots of grass and plenty of room to run and play.

'Muppets' trailer pays tribute to 'Hangover Part II'
If you think Bradley Cooper, Zach Galifianakis and Ed Helms get up to no good in "The Hangover Part II," brace yourself for some bad behavior from the Muppets. Yes, you heard right.
A new trailer for the upcoming "The Muppets" movie has been released in which Kermit, Fozzie, Gonzo and the rest of the Fuzzy Pack pay tribute to Cooper and his Wolf Pack.
The teaser opens with dramatic music playing over various shots of a grimy, run-down theater that brings to mind the Bangkok hotel montage from the "Hangover Part II" preview.

'Hangover Part II' monkey is not addicted to cigarettes
That little monkey in "The Hangover Part II" isn't just stirring up trouble on-screen.
Director Todd Phillips has landed in hot water after saying that he got Crystal the capuchin hooked on cigarettes.
"I wanted the monkey to smoke so we had to train her to," he told Total Film Magazine, according to Movieline. "Now I have PETA after me because the monkey's become addicted to cigarettes. She was just shooting Cameron Crowe's movie 'We Bought a Zoo.' And the monkey won't stop smoking."

Entertainment Weekly reports that Cooper is being eyed to portray the supernatural crime fighter in director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo's adaptation of the cult '80s comic book.
Cooper would play Eric Draven, a rock musician who is murdered while trying to save his wife from attackers. After Draven is resurrected, he seeks vengeance on his killers.

Liam Neeson cut from 'The Hangover Part II'
He replaced Mel Gibson in "The Hangover Part II," and now Liam Neeson has been ousted from the upcoming comedy.
Variety reports that Neeson's cameo as a Bangkok tattoo artist has been cut, and actor/director Nick Cassavetes has taken over the role.
Call it a case of bad timing. According to director Todd Phillips, the scene immediately following Neeson's cameo was snipped from the film, which meant that Neeson's scene had to be re-shot to help fill in the gaps and move the story forward. Unfortunately, Neeson was no longer available because he was in London shooting the sequel to "Clash of the Titans."

I had another idea! This time to use garden sieves (or riddles as they were known) and thought they'd make useful hanging shelving for plants in the greenhouse. I bought lengths of chain and Al and Matt drilled 3 equally spaced holes in the rims of each sieve and inserted lengths of chain from which they could be hung. So far, they've proved a great success as they allow excess water to drain out ensuring plants don't sit and stagnate. Chains can be lengthened or shortened to suit and, should they be needed, I only have to unhook them for use. Unlike macrame plant hangers, these won't rot in the wet and humid atmosphere of a greenhouse. The smallest galvanised sieve is quite modern and only a few years old whereas the largest is a much older original wooden example. Never to fall of its nail and on my head ever again!!
The green and rolling countryside of Worcestershire, England, is home to the cider apple orchards which surround the gardens of Pear Tree Cottage. They enjoy a sunny south westerly aspect with sweeping views across to Martley Hillside, Woodbury and Abberley clock tower. The Teme Valley lies just over the hill and, not far away, is the Herefordshire border. Although our climate is temperate, our seasons are often uncertain and always a challenge to a gardener! This began in 2010 & follows the weekly ups and downs of garden work chronicling both successes and failures but, above all, demonstrates the fun enjoyed by three people who regularly garden in all weathers

'We're just not going to recruit you': Scott Frost warns recruits about social media conduct
Scott Frost has a stern warning for recruits: watch what you post on social media.
Frost, the first-year Nebraska coach, made it clear during a recent camp that he and his staff take social media conduct very seriously. In fact, he said after looking at a prospect's grade-point average, they will go right to a player's social media accounts.
And it won't be a cursory glance, either. The Nebraska coaches are digging in to see what kind of person they are potentially adding to their football program.
"What you put on social media, that's your résumé to the world," Frost said. "That's what you're trying to tell the world you're all about. That's how you're advertising yourself. Be smart with that stuff."
"Aside from GPA, when we're recruiting kids, the next thing we're going to look at is what kind of kid the person is," Frost said. "And part of that is looking through every ounce of social media we can possibly look at. So if some kid tweeted something four years ago that's bad, we're going to know about it.
"And I'll tell you this right now — if there's anything negative about women, if there's anything racial or about sexuality, if there's anything about guns or anything like that, we're just not going to recruit you, period. Piece of advice for you — what you put on social media, that's your résumé to the world. That's what you're trying to tell the world you're all about. That's how you're advertising yourself. Be smart with that stuff."
Coaches sometimes stop recruiting prospects based on their social media
Frost isn't the first coach to communicate this message.
Texas offensive line coach Herb Hand, back during his time at Penn State, issued a similar sentiment, but did so on Twitter. He said the PSU staff completely dropped a prospect — "another prospect" — because of his social media. It's a point he has made many times.
Dropped another prospect this AM due to his social media presence…Actually glad I got to see the 'real' person before we offered him.
— Herb Hand (@CoachHand) July 30, 2014
Anybody who pays attention to recruiting knows that social media plays a huge role. It's more than a communicative tool. As Frost and, in the past, Hand have shown: it is used to gauge character.
Whether these warnings are taken seriously can make or break the recruiting process for some prospects.

Networks: the engine room for a flexible future
Colin Nicol, the MD of SSE's Networks division, recently blogged for Utility Week on the future of the Distribution Network Operator model. The article is on Utility Week's website and is copied below.
The energy sector is transforming, again. BEIS and Ofgem's 'Upgrading our energy system' report this week is the latest welcome intervention to define a changing energy system.
After what could be described as a renewables revolution we are now embarking on a flexibility revolution. A combination of distributed generation, electric vehicles, demand side response and energy storage will begin to transform our energy system, yet this time the engine room may not be investments in big generation stations but the previously low-profile Distribution Network Operators.
In the past, the role of a DNO has been to provide efficient, reliable electricity supply by distributing power from centralised power stations down to homes and businesses. It's a role they have fulfilled well but beyond that there has been limited involvement with the functioning of the energy market. But these days are gone. DNOs now have to transform into Distribution System Operators (DSOs). This is more than a change in name; it marks a complete change in role. No longer will efficient supplies, connecting new sources of energy and transporting it be enough; the task will be to operate the network optimally and become a "neutral market facilitator". New market models are emerging, for example "peer to peer" selling – akin to an EBay for electrons - and the role of a DSO will be to provide the postal service and visibility to allow these new market models to operate. This will ultimately enable thousands, if not millions, of consumers and producers to buy and sell as they please.
A DSO will allow the creation of efficient and dynamic local energy markets, not only by providing the network visibility needed but also by making investment decisions that balance the whole systems cost of network constraints against the cost of removing or managing them. The DSO needs to be objective and open-minded, working with communities, stakeholders and the Transmission System Operator to deliver a whole-system approach.
The scale of this transformation requires a new mind-set and a commitment to change from network operators. This transformation could be described under the banner of three C's: Customers, Costs and Collaboration.
As well as efficient and reliable energy supplies, Customers, businesses and local communities will want more from their energy system. They will need to be offered choice over where they source their energy and how their lifestyles are integrated into the network. The challenge for DSOs is that engaging in this transformation may not be for everybody. A flexibility revolution driven by rooftop solar panels and energy storage is welcome, but careful consideration is needed to ensure that this doesn't result in unintended consequences, not least some communities falling behind. That's why ensuring reliability and the resilience of the network cannot be compromised. DSOs must therefore transform their role, protect the most vulnerable and continue to deliver a resilient and reliable network for all. It's a tough ask but our customers will expect nothing less. At SSEN we have experience of meeting these customer challenges when we introduced the UK's first smart grids into Shetland, Orkney and the Isle of Wight. We are taking forward the lessons from these projects and sharing them with other network companies.
Cost is paramount and the transition must be efficient for bill payers. As part of its Industrial Strategy this government is seeking the cheapest energy prices in Europe. In support of this aim, I am proud that network charges related to electricity distribution have reduced by 17% since privatisation despite significant investment taking place. One of the major successes of the RIIO regulatory framework is that customer service has improved as costs continue to reduce. Indeed, distribution costs have fallen by 6% since RIIO began and are predicted to remain flat for the remainder of this decade. Ofgem has signalled that energy networks should prepare for tougher future price controls and, despite the scale of the transformation, customers will not accept a huge bill for the DSO transition. However, again, I am optimistic: our Orkney smart grid has been delivered for around £500,000 and using Active Network Management we have connected over 20MW of renewable energy, this is extremely good value when compared to a cost of around £30m for conventional connection, upgrading and reinforcement. Of course, a dramatic increase in electric vehicles and heating won't be cost-free, but if we are smart we can control these costs.
The last of the three C's, collaboration, cannot be underestimated and will be vital to achieving the goal of efficient regional DSOs. That's why we support the ENA's Open Networks Project and welcome BEIS and Ofgem highlighting it as a "key initiative" in their report this week. The RIIO framework provides the right conditions for the evolution of DNOs and this collaborative project builds on this to bring together all of the network operators with the aim of realising the DSO transition through a unified approach, where new systems, trials and learnings can be shared. Collaboration clearly also extends to working with stakeholders locally, nationally and across our industry.
In conclusion, I see big challenges ahead, but also huge and exciting opportunities. Though the transformation will be complex and highly technical, if we look after and listen to customers, efficiently manage costs, and collaborate across the industry, we can be the engine rooms for the flexibility revolution.

BUSTED: Hacker reveals Donald Trump's Twitter account linked to a private Gmail address
The most powerful Twitter account in the world was apparently linked to a private Gmail account that may or may not be protected with two-step authentication.
A hacker known on Twitter as @WauchulaGhost told CNN that the president's account was linked to a personal email account — most likely one belonging to Dan Scavino, his social media chief.
Hey @POTUS, On a serious note. Lets fix your Security settings. Should I email you? #GhostOfNoNation @realDonaldTrump pic.twitter.com/FRdMJnZaNr
— WauchulaGhost (@WauchulaGhost) January 21, 2017
That means a hacker could potentially gain access to that Gmail account, which may have only a single layer of password protection, to ask Twitter to reset Trump's password and then begin posting messages that could potentially move stock markets or start a nuclear war.
Twitter allows users — or hackers — to reset their password code through a hyperlink sent to the email account associated with the social media account.
That's helpful when the account's rightful owner forgets his or her password, but problematic when a hacker breaks in and locks out the legitimate user.
If two-step authentication is enabled, and there's no indication that Trump uses that process to protect his account, a motivated or sophisticated hacker could still break in.
To make matters worse, Trump apparently sends his own tweets from an unsecured Android phone, according to the New York Times.
The consequences could be devastating if a hacker gained access to Trump's account — which has 22.2 million followers and now the power and authority of the White House.
The possibility is also deeply ironic, considering Trump and his supporters frequently attacked his election rival, Hillary Clinton, over concerns about the security of her own online communications.
WauchulaGhost claims Trump and his wife, Melania, along with Vice President Mike Pence, are especially vulnerable to hackers because they're not using two-step authentication on their official Twitter accounts — @POTUS, @FLOTUS and @VP.
That would require anyone who wanted to reset the password to wait until a private code was texted to the user's phone.
Their current security setting, and possibly the president's frequently used personal account, allows any one to request a new password and then be shown a partially redacted email address to which Twitter will send a password recovery link.
"It's not hard for us to go figure out that email," the hacker said. "I've taken over 500 Islamic State accounts."
He publicly tweeted the partial emails associated with those accounts Monday, urging the Trumps and Pence to "change your emails & fix your settings."
Several top Trump administration officials — Kellyanne Conway, Jared Kushner, Sean Spicer and Steve Bannon — are reportedly using email accounts linked to the RNC server hacked during the presidential campaign.
Spicer, the White House press secretary, has his own issues with Twitter security.
Spicer apparently tweeted out a password to some type of account — it's not clear exactly what — twice in three days this week.
#FLASH – Trumps White House Press Secretary, Sean Spicer, tweets out password, not once, but twice in 2 days. Just amazing. pic.twitter.com/dwZFKx4RqB
— JΞSTΞR ✪ ΔCTUAL³³º¹ (@th3j35t3r) January 26, 2017
A second email account, apparently from a WhiteHouse.gov domain, was later linked to Trump's Twitter account, according to an Elite Daily reporter.
The Gmail account was then removed, and a second account — also from an apparent WhiteHouse.gov domain, was added.
Updated to show that additional accounts were added to Trump's social media account.

Blueberries are often the bane of my culinary existence. I don't know what it is about them, but I simply do not enjoy blueberry things. Much as James loathes tomatoes, (which I can eat straight from the vine like an apple, happily), I simply cannot abide blueberries.
There are two exceptions to this rule, and I can't really explain it. The first is fresh blueberry muffins. Blueberry muffins with crunchy crumble topping and a dollop of vibrant lemon curd – well, I'm sold.
The second is Green Mountain Coffee's Wild Mountain Blueberry Coffee. Now, I'll be honest and say that it took me years to try GMC's most popular flavored coffee. I'm sure you can understand my hesitancy, after all, there is blueberry in the name. Much like Casey reviles bananas and would never pick up a banana flavored thing, I usually feel the same about blueberry flavored things.
Then, two years ago, James and I were in Vermont, visiting Waterbury and Stowe. He went off for a skiing lesson while I chose to prolong my life by foregoing such an activity. (If you know me in person, you know that I carry my family's clumsiness gene. Skiing and me? Worst. Idea. Ever.) I met my pal Kristen, who works for Green Mountain Coffee, at the local GMC coffee shop there in Waterbury, at their active train station.
The employees on duty at the counter that day convinced me to try the drink of the day, a Wild Mountain Blueberry and whipped cream concoction that plain old blew my socks off.
This month, Green Mountain Coffee is offering Bluebonnets & Brownies readers a fabulous coupon as part of the K-Cup Ambassador Program. From today until September 12th, use the code below to take 15% off all flavored coffees available in K-Cup Portion Packs, including Brew Over Ice blends!
***cannot be used toward Cafe Express orders or gift certificates***
In addition, I've found this handy dandy reference guide really useful every time I place a Cafe Express order. I lean towards medium and light blends, but James prefers the dark roasts. With a guide like this, you can easily choose what you want.
Disclaimer: I am a paid Keurig K-Cup Ambassador. This post is part of that program. However, I have been a long time Green Mountain Coffee and Keurig enthusiast, and all these opinions are my own.[wpurp-searchable-recipe]Green Mountain Coffee Wild Mountain Blueberry – – – [/wpurp-searchable-recipe]

Use a Good Quality Face Wash
Dependant on your skin, you need a good quality face wash over the hot season. It will refresh your skin, removing impurities and make your face clean and spot free, if you have sensitive skin it's important to use a gentle cleanser, these are tough on acne, kind to your skin. Aknicare's Gentle Cleansing Gel is a superb solution to ensure your skin is kept clean and acne free, whilst being gentle on your face. If you don't have sensitive skin, you can use the normal Aknicare cleanser, this product has been clinically proven to deliver remarkable results. Use either of these products withAknicare's products set, with the fast acting skin-roller containing salicylic acid and the acne creamand say Good-Bye to acne. For good.
Use an SPF at all times
Even when the sun is not out, use an SPF of 30+. This will not only prevent you from getting tanned but will also make sure that your skin is not susceptible to developing age spots due to the constant exposure to the harmful UV rays of the sun, if you already suffer from forms of hyperpigmentation it's imperative to remain in the shade or wearing sunscreen or those dark patches will become instantly more prominent. If this is the case, and you want to dramatically reduce the darkness of your pigmentation then fear not, there is now a solution on the market! Thiospot products are aimed at pigmentation sufferers and even contain a UV filter to protect skin spots from darkening when exposed to the suns radiation. So, this would make your ideal companion for you on your summer holidays
Up your fluid intake
Another way you can protect your skin during this season is by drinking lots of water and fluids through the day. Dermatologists suggest that when you wake up in the morning, consuming a glass of seasonal fresh fruit juice like that of a watermelon will keep your skin hydrated. Further, it will also cleanse your system and keep your skin fresh. Vegetable juices made from cucumber, tomato and kale will keep your skin glowing at all times.
Summer proof your eyes and lips
Last but not the least, your eyes and lips are also prone to pigmentation during this weather. Apply a cooling pack on your eyes — green tea bag dipped in cold water or ice pack on your eyes before you retire for the night. For your lips, use a pack made of cucumber and aloe Vera to lighten the dark patches. You can also use a lip balm that contains SPF during the day so that your lips do not darken.

Anthony Nolan
Robust and secure Cloud infrastructure.
Private Cloud across 3 sites in London.
Anthony Nolan operates an extensive global database of over 500,000 bone marrow, or stem cell, donors. This database enables the charity to provide over 1,000 blood cancer patients with a matching stem cell donor every year.
If the database is not available or accessible, registries are not able to access it and this critical activity cannot take place.
Whilst the database must be constantly available, it also needs to be scalable. Anthony Nolan has a number of agreements with other donor databases, which are set to be incorporated into the same infrastructure – the set-up must be resilient enough to support this growth in data and the associated search requests.
In addition to this growth, the charity has targets to increase the rate of growth of registered donors, and is currently on track to achieve its target of 60,000 new donors every year. Its infrastructure must support this planned growth long-term.
Anthony Nolan chose to adopt Exponential-e's VPLS into the solution, Exponential-e's Tier 3 facilities have enterprise-class connectivity provided over a Network built and integrated for 100% uptime.
By connecting over Exponential-e's virtual private LAN, Anthony Nolan is also able to extend its own Network to capture all of its offices on one private WAN. The Network also provides dual resilience enabling further contingency and security.
Anthony Nolan has safeguarded the future of the organisation and its key business function. By ensuring the database it operates can be scaled up to accommodate additions to the database, as well as new partnerships with other donor registers, it can be confident that its infrastructure can support the growth of the organisation. In addition, by connecting its private Cloud infrastructure using Exponential-e's carrier-class 100GigE VPLS Network, Anthony Nolan can also be sure its data is always private and always secure. Future proofing its infrastructure in this way is critical for Anthony Nolan to continue expanding and increasing the research and services it provides.

text: I have had a slight change in mindset recently. Two times recently I have said out loud "Dave is living with cancer and will be living with cancer for the rest of his life." Please don't interpret this as me giving up hope. I HOPE that the "rest of his life" will be a long long time. I HOPE that one of these chemo drugs will stop the tumors dead in their tracks. But for whatever reason, I need to acknowledge the reality that he has multiple tumors in his lungs and liver that are growing and that he is not a candidate for surgery – the only cure for colon cancer. He is fighting hard every single day to battle down these cancer cells while still working, attending school events and being an incredible dad and supportive husband. He is stronger and tougher than anyone I know. I feel this strong need right now to identify and honor what he is doing.

Home Enchancment Stores Can Help You Complete Projects In Various Ways
In general, home enchancment stores have a very broad variety of merchandise of their vary. This means it is more difficult for dwelling and backyard supply stores to pursue the identical omnichannel strategies that different retailers use. What you are able to do as one of the inexpensive tips for home improvement is to switch the votives hanging in the walls with decorations which are extra stylish and more recent.
In the future, you're going to replace all the wallpapers in your house however, this job will not be difficult to do, as a matter of truth, even consultants mentioned that changing the wallpaper is one type of Infissi home improvement undertaking that is so easy to do.
Different non affiliated stores are positioned in Amarillo, TX; Alexandria, LA; Fort Worth, TX, Lubbock, TX; Mineral Wells, TX and Nevada, MO. In case you have some native residence enchancment stores in your area it's best to begin visiting them fairly recurrently checking for closeout offers.
Discovering house improvement information with all the numerous ways to acquire information today may be very confusing. Purchase online, ship from store was built on a basis of our new customer order administration system, which was absolutely deployed in all U.S. shops through the second quarter of 2016," says Craig Menear, Home Depot's chief government.
In Panama Metropolis and all through the nation you could find hardware stores, but the two largest dwelling improvement stores in Panama are Novey and Do It Middle. That is particularly necessary when buying the product from a web based home equipment store.

About Basking Babies in Romford
Hi I'm Jackie, I am a qualified baby massage instructor and mum to Isabella and Alexander.
I first discovered Basking Babies baby massage when my Son had colic. I was relieved to find someone who could offer a home visit, it was a very daunting thought to attend a group with my Son suffering from severe colic. During my home visit, I was put at ease right away and by the end I felt confident to attend a group armed with my new knowledge of how to relieve my Son's discomfort. Joining the Basking Babies group course was fantastic, with Alexander being my second child, being able to have time out from the daily stresses for just me and Alexander to bond and spend quality time getting to know each other. The classes were very relaxed and friendly, lovely to meet other local mums and chat over tea and cake.

This prestigious award is a memorial and tribute to Michael Middleton CBE, who established the Civic Trust Awards in 1959 and is awarded to a restoration project or new build within a conservation area.
The Mary Rose Museum houses the hull of the Mary Rose warship, commissioned by Henry VIII in 1510, as well as many thousands of the artefacts that were retrieved from the Solent's seabed 437 years after she sank. The iconic new building reunites the ship with its original contents and crew, creating a building and interior that both protects and showcases the Mary Rose to enhance the visitor experience.
The Museum building, designed from the inside-out, uses the form and elements of the historic ship to create a unique visitor experience. The original hull is contained within a carefully controlled environment alongside a virtual port-side hull created on three levels exhibiting the largest hoard of Tudor artefacts in the world. This 21st century building nestles comfortably within the historic area of the dockyard and epitomises Michael Middleton's philosophy of good practice in conservation areas, ensuring the wellbeing of historic towns and cities.
The Civic Trust Awards were set up to recognise outstanding architecture, planning and design in the built environment. The 55th Annual Civic Trust Awards Ceremony was held on Friday 7th March at Blackpool Winter Gardens and attended by Robert Lapraik, Deputy Chief Executive of The Mary Rose Trust.
Robert Lapraik said, "It was a privilege to represent the Mary Rose Trust at the Civic Trust Awards. We are all incredibly proud of our museum and it is fantastic to get recognition for this wonderful building. We would like to thank our architects, Wilkinson Eyre and Pringle Brandon Perkins + Will for designing such a fitting home in which to display these wonderful objects and where they can tell the fascinating stories of the men on board."

This movie came and went, I think. It is flawed but it has a lot to interest me. It is about the Crusades, a subject hard to top for exciting potential.
Orlando Bloom stars, and does not quite get the job done. He is not bad, just lacks pizzazz. I mean, I know he's Hottie in Excelsis, but he is just so earnest and moody thru out, but not compelling. That would, I imagine, owe to the director (Ridley Scott). Bloom is onscreen for most of the first ten minutes without any lines. There is simply a lot of Bloom face time but no dialogue.
Scott directed Gladiator, which also had a fascinating milieu. Russell Crowe held the screen better than Bloom. I do not think the score held interest the way it did in Gladiator, but I am not sure about that.
Anyway, Bloom, we learn at the beginning, is a blacksmith who just lost his wife. She was a suicide, despondent over loss of a child during childbirth. Because of her suicide, the village priest ordered her head removed from the corpse. When Bloom learns of this he wordlessly murders the priest. Yikes!
Liam Neeson had already showed up and revealed himself as Bloom's father, by way of some earlier (obviously) dalliance. I am fuzzy as to how Neeson managed to locate Bloom. Neeson is king of some kingdom in the Holy Land, and invites Bloom to join him in the Crusade, good way for father and son to get to know each other. Bloom refused until he murdered the priest. Bloom, Neeson and their small party of knights are waylaid by the local king's men, to bring Bloom to justice. Some brief butchery follows, with the attackers slaughtered but also most of Neeson's men. This was a surprise because the men were all distinctive, in the way of patented movie crew. Neeson himself is seriously wounded. He dies and Bloom finds himself King of whatever place it was. He heads to the Holy Land, with an entourage of knights. Sailing from Medina, the ships founder, and only Bloom survives, along with a horse. Bloom and horse cross the desert.
At an oasis he is intercepted by the lord of the land, who challenges Bloom. Bloom defeats this man, and has the man's slave lead him to Jerusalem. At Jerusalem, Bloom frees the slave. One mission there is that he tries to believe in salvation, for himself and his wife but cannot quite do it.
Well now, he efforts to tidy up his kingdom and help Jerusalem. He meets the sister of the King of Jerusalem. She is married to a knight seen as the next King of Jerusalem, a templar, I think, and an upper class jerky boy. He is marked as Bloom's competition.
The Templars are hankering to start something, and have it out with the Muslims. The dirty work is especially done but a loutish king or whatever he is. He bad.
The King of Jerusalem and Salah al-Din were understood as the hope for peace in the Holy Land. I will not pretend to enough scholarship here, but think there is some accuracy to this vision, tho Saladin certainly benefits from a romanticizing.
Alas, the machinations of the Templars and the King of Jerusalem's health (he's leprous) make the situation tenuous. Bloom's rival and the rival's troublemaker perform nastiness against the Saracens. This riles Saladin to bring 200,000 against Jerusalem. Bloom and his homeys arrive on scene and see that the the refugees rushing to the city will not make it ahead of Saladin's army. So Bloom and Croo dash toward the enormous army. This is one of several steals from Lord of the Rings, when Faramir et al. rush against the entrenched orc brigade. It is a slaughter.
Somehow, Bloom and a few others survive. And lo, it turns out that the slave that Bloom freed was in fact a lord, and this lord allows Bloom and all to live. Well!
It still looks grim for Jerusalem but the King and it looks like everyone else comes forth grandly. I did not mench that the K of J wears a silver mask to hide his leprous deformities. That and his white robe gives him an exotic, outré aspect.
He and Saladin agree to peace, and the King promises to punish the perp. It was already promised that the King would not survive this excursion and, after beating on the perp, he fails, falls, dies. Bloom is offered Kingship but he refuses Christianly, because his rival would die if Bloom accepted.
And that leads to trouble.
The Templars perform Saracen slaughter, and Saladin reacts. The new K of J is captured, along with his dog. Saladin is gracious, offering a cup of iced water to the King. Historically, Saladin supposedly did this to an ailing King Richard. The King hands the drink to his murderous lackey, who partakes. Saladin says, I did not give that to you. Lackey shrugs. Saladin kills him. And so on.
Now Saladin aims for Jerusalem, and now Bloom is there for the defense. What comes next is much much like the defense of Gondor. It is a bit blah blah blah, tho visually interesting. Bloom gives a totally unlikely speech about defending the people of Jerusalem, not the ideologies. Post modern craperoo.
Bloom's fencing is convincing but in the gross world of Crusade slaughter he is too preppy and slim. And the speechy crap, who is supposed to purchase this? You are. Jerusalem survives the onslaught and Saladin, nice guy, gives good terms. So, with everything made neatly small again, Bloom and the sister of the former K of J leave the city. Bloom returns to blacksmithery. Mushy Christian wawa.
The movie is compelling in its milieu, and not lame, but the imperative under which it works it just a tiresome drone. Which is where will stop.

THE LETTERS OF THEODORE ROOSEVELT, VOLS. I & II (1,549 pp.)Edited by Elting E. MorisonHarvard University ($20).
"My Dear Mamma," wrote nine-year-old Theodore Roosevelt in 1868, "I have just received your letter! What an excitement. How nice to read it. What long letters you do write. I don't see how you can write them."
So begins the first two volumes of a projected eight-volume set of Theodore Roosevelt's own lengthy letters. Before long, the reader is apt to wonder if the ebullient T.R. was not born with a pen grasped firmly in hand. Certainly, few men in or out of public life...

The Eagle Has Landed
The New Year is still relatively fresh, but 2016 has thus far been deadly for music icons.
To date, we have lost David Bowie, Natalie Cole, Motorhead's Lemmy Kilmister and now founding Eagles' guitarist Glenn Frey, who died Monday from complications related to Rheumatoid Arthritis and Pneumonia. He was 67 years old.
Frey burst onto the music scene in 1971 when he, Don Henley, Randy Meisner and Bernie Leadon formed The Eagles, a band known for producing radio-saturating hits like "Hotel California", "Life in the Fast Lane" and "Desperado". They were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1998.
Like many music lovers of my generation, I grew up listening to The Eagles on AM and FM radio—long before I ever knew the names of the band members. In fact, I first learned who Glenn Frey was in the 1980s when he released "The Heat is On" as part of the Beverly Hills Cop soundtrack. I always recognized the talent, though, and I assure you that he will be missed.
Enjoy that peaceful, easy feeling, my man. Always.

PENNY WONG, ACTING LEADER OF THE OPPOSITION: I wanted to talk today about reports in today's papers of another broken promise from Tony Abbott. And this is the fact that the Government is considering a hospital tax, a hospital tax which is another broken promise from Tony Abbott. And it is Australian families who will pay the price.
Now, I don't think parents who are worried about their child's health, who go to a public hospital in the middle of the night should be worried about their credit card. Their Medicare card should be enough. We don't want parents having to worry about a credit card, they should be carrying their Medicare card and get access to the services that they need for their child.
Tony Abbott wants to put a paywall around Australia's emergency departments. And not only is that wrong, it's also a broken promise. Because who can forget, before the last election, Mr Abbott assured Australians, he promised Australians, no cuts to health. He promised Australians no new taxes as well. We've got a GP tax on the table already, and now we have a hospital tax: a clear broken promise from Tony Abbott.
I'm happy to take questions.
JOURNALIST: Shouldn't there be a penalty though to at least deter people from clogging up hospitals who don't need to be there?
WONG: I refer you to the comments from the AMA today, who've said that that is not a problem, that the triage arrangements do deal very well with this and, more importantly, what they say is we know that if you put co-payments into the system, it is a disincentive for people to seek the healthcare they need. And I think any parent knows, if you take a child to hospital in the middle of the night, you're worried about them. And it might only be a sore throat but it might be something else. That's why you're there.
We've got a principle in this country that says we don't have two tiers for healthcare. We don't have one for those who can afford it and another for those who can't. We say, as Australians, we have a Medicare card and we get access to universal healthcare. Tony Abbott wants to put a paywall around Australia's public hospitals.
JOURNALIST: Is there any way Tony Abbott could make the states do it?
WONG: You'd have to ask him. All that I know is this is obviously being put to the papers, being reported very widely, and that the Government's refusing to rule it out. Now, if Tony Abbott were a man of his word, and if he cared about public health, if he cared about health services, then he would be ruling this out pretty quickly. This is quite clearly another broken promise.
JOURNALIST: Speaking of promises – the submarines. 12 submarines was the figure in both the White Papers under the Gillard/Rudd Governments. Why is 12 submarines the right number for Australia as opposed to a different set-up with an ongoing build?
WONG: We made a decision on that capability I think it was in the 2009 White Paper. And I think it was in that that we set up some of the rationale for the capability. But I want to make clear that the broken commitment from Tony Abbott is not just around the number. It's also around where it will be built and what will be built. He gave very strong commitments as a result of questioning not only from the now Opposition but also from, let's be fair, South Australian journalists, who put this question reasonably to Mr Abbott – because it is a big issue for us, here in South Australia.
And he eventually made a commitment around building submarines here and he made a commitment to building 12. If you've read Minister David Johnston's speech, they've not only walked away from 12, but everything's on the table. And the commitment to build in Adelaide is no longer a commitment.
And I think South Australians are entitled to ask what has Tony Abbott got against South Australia? He clearly didn't help Holdens, he effectively showed them the door and now he's walking away from a commitment which is so important for our economy. Making sure we maintain those skills, those advanced engineering and manufacturing skills here in South Australia, but also I believe it's a national security issue. And I think it's a very important capability.
JOURNALIST: Senator Johnston has repeated though that the work will be centred around the South Australian shipyards, isn't that enough?
WONG: What I'd say to you is don't allow the spin to get in the way of what's previously been said. That's what Tony Abbott said previously, before he then made a stronger commitment, frankly under political pressure from people here in South Australia. So they've now junked the commitment and gone back to the language which can only be described as fudging. These are just weasel words to walk away from the commitment that was made.
JOURNALIST: What do you think "centred around" could mean though? Do you think that's indicating modified off the shelf, full off the shelf?
WONG: Well I know "centred around" means weasel words to crab walk away from the commitment.
JOURNALIST: Back onto the hospital issue. As a former Finance Minister –
WONG: I love questions that begin with that.
JOURNALIST: Is the proposal to charge for using emergency services something that's tossed up every budget?
WONG: We're the party that built Medicare and the fundamental principle that underpins Medicare is universality of access, and that is not something Labor will support. We believe Medicare needs to be defended. And what I'd say to you is I think Australians expect that to be the case.
JOURNALIST: How would you reign in the ballooning health budget?
WONG: I'll tell you, one of the things we did do which the Coalition wants to reverse is the means testing of the private health rebate, bitterly opposed by Joe Hockey. Tony Abbott has a commitment at some point to bring it back. I know that wasn't popular but that was an important savings measure that we put in place. And I'll tell what's the other thing I'd do, I wouldn't put in place a rolled gold paid parental leave scheme.
JOURNALIST: Why didn't Labor take the pressure off hospitals by delivering on its promise to build GP super clinics?
WONG: A number of GP super clinics have been built and I would say in terms of hospital reform, we put more funding and more resources into public hospitals than any previous government and certainly more than this government's proposing to put in over the budget period.
JOURNALIST: Senator, are you opposed to means testing for bulk billing patients? I mean why should the wealthy people be able to bulk bill?
WONG: I again go back to this: do we want a system like there is in America, where there are two tiers of health services available, where your credit card is what is important, not your Medicare card, where some people can afford health care and others can't? We made the decision as a nation decades ago, we didn't want to do that. We wanted a proper health system. We wanted a health system that we all contributed to and we all could benefit from. And Tony Abbott, what they're setting to do is starting to dismantle that.
JOURNALIST: Senator you were involved in a pretty well-publicised pre-selection process prior to the Senate election. What's your view on the direct election of Senate candidates and, indeed, delegates to the National Convention?
WONG: I've said and I think this might've been asked yesterday and I've certainly said in a couple of interviews in the last couple of days, I think we should have the discussion about how we strengthen our party. An important part of that is extending the franchise, making our party more democratic, opening up our processes, because if you want people to be members they have to be involved.
I'm a big supporter of the new leadership rules and I think even those people in the party who are concerned about them I think saw the process of the most recent election of the Labor Leader as being a constructive one and a positive one. So I'm up for that discussion, I'm certainly open to that discussion. That's an important suggestion that's being put on the table, but there are others and I think we ought to consider them all very carefully.
JOURNALIST: Just on health again, would Labor ever talk about capping services, for example, hip replacements for 99 year olds or anything like that?
WONG: I'm not going to get into hypotheticals around what else might or might not be considered by the government. What I'd say is as the Opposition we're very clear about what our principles are. And I think Australians are pretty clear about what they're being told today. They're being told Tony Abbott is welching on his commitment that there'll be no cuts to health. Tony Abbott said there'd be no cuts to health, no new taxes. Well a new hospital tax on top of the GP tax – clearly breaking the election commitment.
Thank you, very much.

ALLEN PARK, Mich. (AP) ? The Detroit Lions have selected Mississippi State cornerback Darius Slay in the second round of the NFL draft.
ALLEN PARK, Mich. (AP) ? The Detroit Lions are determined to improve their shaky defense, taking Mississippi State cornerback Darius Slay in the second round Friday after selecting BYU defensive end Ziggy Ansah fifth overall in the NFL draft.
"Our division is a very physical division, the NFC North," Lions general manager Martin Mayhew said. "We've got to be able to physically match up with these guys, and these two guys give us the opportunity to do that."
Detroit drafted Slay 36th overall, seven spots ahead of teammate Johnthan Banks, who won the Thorpe Award that honors college football's best defensive back.
"It didn't matter who went first," Slay insisted.
The native of Brunswick, Ga., said he probably would've been drafted even sooner but an MRI revealed he had a torn meniscus in one of his knees ? he wouldn't say which one on a conference call with Detroit-area reporters ? when NFL teams were evaluating him.
"I was told I don't have to have surgery," Slay said. "I feel like I'm real good right now."
The Lions do, too.
Detroit general manager Martin Mayhew said the team got a look at Slay within the last couple of weeks.
"We are aware that there is a physical issue with his knee," Mayhew said. "We're aware of that and we're comfortable with that."
Mayhew refused to speculate about how much, if any, time Slay would have to miss during offseason workouts. Lions coach Jim Schwartz, though, made it clear he doesn't think Slay has a health issue that will linger.
"This isn't a long-term injury from the information that we have," Schwartz said.
The Lions have a spot for the 6-foot, 192-pound Slay to start opposite veteran cornerback Chris Houston. Slay, the son of two former track athletes, ran a 4.36 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine to provide the Lions with another reason to want him on their team.
"They know my size and the speed that I have, being one of the fastest guys at the combine," he said. "They just said they can do a lot of stuff with my talent."
Slay had five interceptions, returning one for a touchdown last season, in his second year of playing in the Southeastern Conference after attending junior college.
"He's played very well in the SEC and been very productive," Mayhew said. "We've been trying to find that big corner. We've talked about that and everybody's looking for that guy. He's really good in press coverage, he's physical against the run, so we like this player. He's going to help us a lot."
"He's very sticky in coverage," Mayhew said.
The Lions decided to stick with their early pick in the second round after Mayhew said they got "a lot of calls," from teams wanting to acquire the slot.
"We had several teams that wanted to move up and we were weighing moving back and trying to still get Darius, or should we take him," he said. "We decided to just go ahead and take him."

SAN ANTONIO – A team of Haynes and Boone, LLP lawyers successfully represented Keystone-Texas Property Holding Corporation in an appeal arising out of a failed sale of the Marriott Rivercenter Hotel.
Keystone owned the land underlying the hotel, and HMC Hotel Properties II Limited Partnership leased the land from Keystone. HMC later sued Keystone for breach of the lease as Keystone was set to close an agreement to sell the land to a third party. After the sale fell through, Keystone filed counterclaims against HMC for slander of title and tortious interference with contract.
Keystone also asserted the same claims against HMC's parent corporation, Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc., formerly known as the Host Marriott Corporation and Host Hotels & Resorts, L.P.
Haynes and Boone's appellate team worked with trial counsel from Crouch & Ramey, L.L.P. to present Keystone's case during a four-week trial in early 2010. A jury rejected HMC's breach of contract claim, and instead found in favor of Keystone on both of its claims, and awarded Keystone both actual and punitive damages. The trial court entered an approximately $50 million judgment on the actual damages, but declined to enter judgment on the jury's $7.5 million punitive damage award. HMC/Host appealed the resulting judgment raising numerous issues, and Keystone filed a cross-appeal challenging the trial court's failure to include in its judgment punitive damages awarded by the jury.
Partners Alan Wright and Mark Trachtenberg in the Appellate Practice Group, along with Associate Polly Graham, persuaded the San Antonio Court of Appeals to affirm the approximately $50 million judgment in favor of the client. In addition, in a cross-appeal, the team prevailed in their efforts to obtain a reinstatement of the jury's $7.5 million punitive damages award.

Hi everyone,
Today we will talk about the KISS Flight Controller, made by Flyduino, this is one of the bests flight controllers at the moment. Most of the great pilots use KISS FC because of the simplicity, the smoothness that is provided by the great algorithm maded sepecific for this controller.
The KISS FC is based on 32bit STM32 F3 processor with MPU6050 moving sensor, can handle at 6S battery cells, it has a built in voltage regulator for 5V with 500mA current with reverse polarity protection, it can support up to 6 motors. On communication side we can use PWM, PPM, S-Bus and Satellite receivers. One of the greatest features on this FC it supports ESC telemetry, at the moment only KISS ESC 24A allow this feature, with this we can know the voltage, the current and the temperature on each ESC. This is a simple board, no baro and no mag ideal for race quads.
It only weights 4,6gr and the hole distances is 30mm x 30mm. Which means that fits on the standard frame mounts. The idea for this board is to keep it super simple (KISS), thats why we only have the basic sensors on this board thats why the schematic of this is so simple so organized. Currently KISS FC use its own firmware, not cleanflight or betaflight. The firmware developed for this FC suffered many upgrades which means we constantly have improvements. To configure the firmware we only have three tabs on the GUI with simple things to configure, PID, TPA, Auxiliar channels and communication protocols for receiver and ESC's.
This is a great board for user with some experience that want a fine tunning PID, but for other side beginners will learn so much with this board during the configuration process with a really simple and clean GUI. For the price this is a very good flight controller with so much potential.

Cherry Blossom Gentle Foaming Cleanser – Zatik Beauty Essentials
I received this from my Mama a while back and have been using it in my daily skin care routine. I use this as my third step after i've washed with a milk cleanser and exfoliated with a micro gommage. It instructs to massage into skin and leave for 5 minutes before washing off. I usually do this while i'm in the shower and don't massage it too much into my skin.
This is a very gentle cleanser and smells divine. This is a "natural" cleanser, I'm not sure if it is organic or cruelty free though. (sowwy!) It comes with a pump applicator and will foam once you rub it around in your palms a bit.
I personally wouldn't use just this as a face cleanser, but that's because I like my milk cleansers 😛 I can't actually find Zatik online, but the ones I can find online of this cleanser vary from 26 – 34 $. Personally I would not repurchase but each to their own ❤
Thanks for reading!
