As a born and bred Manchester girl, I'm overly happy that this city is known and loved for it's creative streak. As a creative myself (well, I like to class myself as one, seeing as I have always worked in the fashion and journalism industries) I wouldn't want to be in any other city. All you have to do is take a short stroll around the Northern Quarter and see all the booming independent businesses to realise how much creative talent lies in this city.
A trend which has grown from Manchester's entrepreneurial talents and passion for small, independent businesses is the creation of work hubs. If you think about it, a city which is home to so many SME's, freelancers and self-employed bright sparks, needs places for people to work, right? I as a blogger have felt the need for this myself, especially during those days where I have various meetings dotted around the city. Sometimes, during those in-between hours, I get a little fed up of jumping from coffee shop to coffee shop, spending money on copius amounts of lattes and not having anywhere to call 'an office'.
So, the growth of working spaces has resulted in a fantastic new co-working space in Manchester open up. Introducing Workplace – an ideal location for hot desking, renting business spaces, and hiring meeting rooms and office space.
Last month, Workplace become my new home for the day, where I brought along my laptop and work bag, setting up for blogging. It's situated fairly central in Manchester, a little nearer to the Oxford Road/Peter Street end of town. Upon arriving, I was greeted by a lovely lady on reception, who shown me around the place and pointed out all the amenities I could use. This included complimentary use of the coffee machine and the contents of the biscuit tin- winner!
On a more serious note, the place itself is superb in terms of layout, decor, and interior design. The place has a modern and clean look to it, with spacious floor plans and minimal decor. A little bit Scandi style with it's rose gold lighting and glass lamp shades. Along with individual desk areas, there is also a more casual meeting area, great for business catch-ups or more low-key meetings.
When I was walked around the place, I got the chance to explore the more exclusive meeting rooms, complete with all the technology and space you would need to chair a more important event. I also took a little tour further down the Workplace, which features boutique style offices which companies can rent out for longer periods of time. These provide much more privacy and that professional feel – a great step before securing your own office.
As for me, I was there to catch up on the blog and respond to zillions of emails, so I took up a tiny booth type desk area, which looked uber cosy and cute. It had a little desk lamp and was situated right next to the kitchen area – needs must and all.
I'm a sucker for quirky interiors, and this boutique-hotel-style-office impressed me greatly. The atmosphere was calming and peaceful, with the desks taken up by hard working individuals (like myself- of course!). The great thing is, you can hot desk for as little at £10 for the day, which involves all your hot drinks and biscuits. Works out cheaper than a day in Starbucks, with a much nicer working environment.
Check out the Workplace website for more information…

Whoever else thinks you are of little worth – to your dog you are the centre of his universe" (Pam Brown 1928)
Here at Sage's, your dog is our number 1 priority. Time and research has taught us exactly what your dog likes and needs. From the moment your dog arrives to the moment they leave they will receive our absolute and undivided attention. They will be pampered beyond expectation and every treatment they receive will be of the highest quality.
Whether your dog wants, grooming, bathing, or just a day of pure indulgence they will receive one on one attention from Sage, as I we believe this is what your dog deserves. We welcome all breeds, all sizes, nervous and temperamental dogs.

Airsoft and paintball are combat-simulation activities which utilise replica firearms.
With airsoft, the available weapons are pistols and revolvers, as well as shoulder weapons. In addition to the actual firearms, you will need gas cannisters in order to fire (except in the case of pump-action air rifles), and plastic ball ammunition. There are also further accessories available for this activity, such as hand-grenades.
Paintball involves the use of 'markers' which fire balls of paint at your opponent. Protective gear is indispensible in order to practice this sport without getting injured, and other accessories, such as the Spyder charger, are also extremely useful.

Diversey CareNew Product Launch
As a global leader in cleaning, sanitation, and hygiene solutions, Sealed Air Diversey Care has a lot to offer its hospitality clients – with one big exception. So they asked us to create a brand platform for the kind of upscale hand soap and lotion brand you'd find in the washroom of fine hotels and restaurants.
In an upscale hotel or restaurant, guests expect to find established brands like Molton Brown and L'Occitane in the washroom.
Although Sealed Air Diversey Care is the market leader in commerical dispensing systems, they aren't known for luxury product or packaging design.
In order to streamline supply management, the hospitality industry needs a single washroom solution with universal appeal.
The washroom soap and lotion market represents an approximately $1.5 billion global market opportunity.
Consumers prefer personal hygiene products that indulge all the senses – not just touch.
Sealed Air Diversey Care's customers want a cost effective way to achieve that designer washroom look.
Create a luxury-look personal hygiene brand with global appeal that blends seamlessly into any washroom environment.
Working closely with Sealed Air's international team, we refined design prototypes and crafted a multi-channel brand platform to support the launch and subsequent marketing campaign. Although the primary sales channel for the new upscale personal hygiene brand will be existing hospitality customers, we created a number of consumer-facing touchpoints so that Lapē could one day compete with consumer market leaders in the washroom soap and lotion category.

Riley Keough (The Runaways) is apparently close to landing a role in director George Miller's fourth Mad Max installment, Mad Max: Fury Road. If cast, the young actress would join Tom Hardy (Inception), Charlize Theron, and Nicholas Hoult (Clash of the Titans) in the film. According to Heat Vision, Keough would play "one of the 'Five Wives,' a group of women that Hardy must protect from the bad guys." Sounds pretty self-explanatory if you ask me…
In case you're lacking your daily Riley Keough "fun fact," here's one for you: she is the daughter of Lisa Marie Presley and musician/actor Danny Keough. If my math is correct, that makes her the granddaughter of "The King" Elvis Presley. For more info on the film and to see what other rock and roll ties exist within the cast, hit the jump.
While an official synopsis has yet to surface, it is known that the film will take place shortly following the events of 1985's Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome. Moreover, the excellent Tom Hardy is set to take over the reigns of protagonist Max Rockatansky from media darling Mel Gibson. Currently, Miller is eyeing early next year to begin shooting the film.
As for the potential rock and roll team-up, Zoe Kravitz (The Brave One), the daughter of rocker Lenny Kravitz and Lisa Bonet, has already been cast in the film as one of the "Five Wives" which Keough is currently negotiating. There is no word on whether or not the two will be asked to perform a musical number or five within the film.

We love Rainbo food for their flavour packed gyoza and nourishing salads, so we asked them to tell us a little more about themselves and their food.
Where are they?
Well, it depends on when you want to go. Like a lot of great traders, they move around, so keep an eye on their Twitter feed for details.
Who are they?
Rainbo traders James and Jamie tell us, "Rainbo has been on the London street food scene for nearly five years but when the original owners (husband and wife Ben and Xochi) were looking to move on earlier this year I decided it was time to quit the desk job and, alongside best friend Jamie, take over the Rainbo reigns!
"I used to work as a financial adviser and Jamie as an insurance broker but neither of us were happy and after years of talking about making our passion our job and working in food, we finally took the plunge this year.
"Jamie and I are beyond obsessed when it comes to gyoza (and all Asian dim sum really). We started our own dumpling society a few years ago that meets once a month to sample a different dumpling haunt in London and also hosts supper clubs and Chinese New Year dumpling parties.
"I even have a tattoo of an otter eating a gyoza (they are my other obsession but that's for another time I think!). People often ask if I'm bored of gyoza now that I eat them basically every day, but half the reason we decided to this was for exactly that reason! The world would be a happier place if everyone ate at least one gyoza a day!"
What's on the menu?
"We're best known for our Japanese gyoza and Asian salad boxes but are currently in the process of expanding our menu for our winter residencies and permanent Camden location. We like to focus on making street food that is not only delicious but also healthy and vibrant, with our best seller at our lunchtime markets being our Rainbo box — six or eight gyoza (different gyoza available each day) with short grain brown rice, pickles, Asian slaw, edamame beans, beetroot humous, omega seeds and peanut crumb.
"At our residencies, we extend out our menu from what is on offer in the truck with other dishes such as chicken yakitori and our famous RainboJapanese scotch eggs.
At our Camden we will be expanding the menu further, with Japanese soul food in various shapes, sizes and flavours."
What's in store for the future?
"In our opinion the only thing better that a gyoza is a gyoza served with a cold beer or cocktail. Eventually, we plan to open our own Izakaya style bar in London, serving delicious Japanese small plates and cocktails until the early hours."

Disseminating Moon Phase: share, communicate
Moon in Capricorn/Aquarius (Saturday 7:23 pm ET/11:23 pm UT)
Goddess of Wisdom: Chinnamasta (Goddess Who Expands The Mind)
God of Will: Ian (God of The East)
Skill: follow the clues
True Alignment: re-evaluating values, ventures, investigative, heightened intuition, doing things a different way, uplifted, fleeting inspiration, inquisitive, mysteries and revelations, seeing what was missing, return to a state of love, receptive to messages
Catalysts for Change: blaming others, refusing new opportunities, reckless, knee-jerk reactions, wasting time and energy, wound up, collisions of worlds, tempted into a dark mindset, arguments, hiding things, running around, imbalance of power, cowardly actions, out of bounds and over the top, crazed
Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month: "the music of the spheres"
"During the early hours of May 9, a magnetic filament snaking over the Sun's northeastern limb rose up and flung itself into space. While the eruption was underway, another magnetic filament…also erupted. The two wild filaments combined to produce a bright CME."
The CME activated the energetic of the Sabian symbol "a hidden choir singing during a religious service." The message from the Sun is you are not alone.
The beautiful CME occurred Saturday, May 9 at 1:42 am ET/5:42 am UT. The Sun seems to have been careful in the way the CME was launched — via two magnetic filaments and not primarily from the sunspot that was facing Earth. The energetic fields of our bodies are affected, regardless of the direction. Your sleep may have been disturbed if it was sleep time for you. But what a lovely message! In perfect alignment with the mission of Disseminating Moon phase to deliver messages, the day was all about messages and dreams and magic carpet rides of consciousness.
Lofty messages from on high continue this weekend with the Sun reaching the degrees of "wisps of clouds, like wings, streaming across the sky" on Saturday and "a moving finger points to significant passages in a book" on Sunday. So we are receptive to clues, background music or conversation, synchronicities, and patterns. The information and messages we receive are intended to progress and re-align things toward what is more open, supportive, and effective for us.
There is even more to this CME, however. The degree of the CME, "a hidden choir singing during a religious service" happens to also be the degree of the Capricorn New Moon on January 9, 2016. In place with the New Moon in Capricorn will be a Grand Cardinal Cross between the Sun, Moon, Pluto, Uranus, Eris, and the Black Moon. This blows my mind a little and will take some time to process. It follows that clues which provide foresight into what is highlighted for that time would be available now. Overall, this Grand Cardinal Cross is about rebirth. It bodes very, very well for humanity.
This weekend's energetics are expansive and send us into uncharted territory of the mind. We have a solar soundtrack on hand courtesy of the divine being the Gnostics tell us is named Sabaoth – the Sun. Enlarge your sphere of influence or operation. Pioneer into new lands and experiences. Share. Find beauty. Listen to the divine sounds of the music of the spheres.
Happy Mother's Day to all the moms!
(Happy birthday to wise owl and long-time pioneer of the music of the spheres, Constance Demby, who is completing her new album. The world loves and thanks you, Constance!)
(The first recording of "Parliament of Wise Owls" was recorded yesterday and now posted at the top the page and the YouTube version is in process. Andrew, Sol, and I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.)
Thank you for supporting The Oracle Report!

The insanity in the music business continues as artists like Sheryl Crow, Emmylou Harris, and others testify to Congress about how they aren't getting their fair share from radio.
Has everyone lost their collective minds? On the one hand, Crow recently played a private concert for Northern Trust (yes, a bailout money recipient), and you have to wonder whether those uptight bankers would have even known who she was if not for all that radio play she's received over the years. The same is true for every touring band that makes its living during the summers playing sheds, and in the colder weather at theaters all over the world.
It wouldn't be so crazy if radio didn't provide so much support for artists - more than any other medium or outlet. Our Tech Polls continue to tell us this truth. For the survey that's currently in the field (with more than 17,250 respondents already tallied), we used a different question than usual. Instead of just asking the primary way that listeners are exposed to new music (which radio always handily wins, by the way), we asked about all of the sources and outlets in an effort to be fairer to some of the newcomers in the music/media world. This allowed respondents to check as many different options as apply.
And the result (again with about 70% of "precincts reporting"):
Now I know what you're thinking - these are radio listeners - what else are they going to say? Well, since 90% of the U.S. are "radio listeners," that covers a lot of people. But you may argue that these people are all members of email clubs, thus making them more core to radio. Fine - then knock 10 percentage points off radio's totals. And that translates to three-fourths of rockers who say that radio plays a role in exposing them to new music - more than twice as much as the next media source.
And where do you see satellite radio, Pandora, and even iTunes on the list? They are all well down the pecking order, which should come as a surprise to no one - except these musicians who are whining about receiving their "fair share."
Sheryl, Emmylou, Patti, and all the geniuses at musicFIRST: Do you really want to mess with this arrangement? Do you really want to start making it next to impossible for many commercial stations to continue playing your music? Take it from someone on the deep inside of the business. If radio CEOs are willing to initiate the types of harsh cuts they've made in the last year, they will most certainly scuttle music formats if they become financially impossible to justify.
In "Radio, Radio," Elvis Costello intoned "I wanna bite the hand that feeds me." Of course, he had every right to write that lyric and release that song. And radio had every right not to play it. But over the years, Elvis Costello still received a ton of radio airplay, from the "fools" who run the business. He protested all the way to the bank.
Patti La Belle testified that "I never thought I'd be standing here asking for my money."
Well, you shouldn't be. Radio was the main driver that helped tell the world about your talent. To Sheryl, Emmylou, and Patti, if you want to get paid your fair share, start touring around the country and visit a couple of hundred radio stations. Thank them for all the airplay you've received over the years, and while you're at it, thank all those fans who bought your music. By the way, a little promotion and effort on your part will sell a helluva lot more CDs, and it will connect you to the valuable communities that radio has built and created over the years - at no extra charge to you.
These are trying times, and everyone in media is struggling to reinvent their businesses. But for musicians to lash out at the best source of exposure in the history of entertainment that has made the biggest contribution to exposing their songs and personas to the world - now that's just biting the hand that's fed them.

Kudos from Subscribers
I've been a TAAR subscriber for well over 15 years, and wouldn't miss an issue! As an insurance carrier, I need to stay close to my customers – the independent agents that represent us. No one helps me stay current on agency technology issues better than The Anderson Agency Report!
Bill Alexander, Regional Companies Group, Liberty Mutual Agency Corporation
We have been subscribing to The Anderson Agency Report for at least 10 years (probably more) and I have always relied on your reports to keep me abreast of the latest developments in automation for insurance agents. Any others that I tried looked like they were written for geeks only, and 95% of their content was not insurance related. I also like the idea of not having any advertisers that you can't say bad things about.
Mac Keasling, PRS Insurance
TAAR consistently addresses topics on the leading edge of agency efficiency. By adapting many of the suggestions addressed, our agency has been able to thrive in a time when others have failed or merged. Thank you Steve for making us uncomfortable.
Ben F. Gorrell, Jr., VP, Rich & Cartmill, Inc.
Of all the magazines, newsletters and emails I get every month—I specifically dedicate time to look at each issue you publish. Your newsletter is educational and informative—but above all—it is easy to get through quickly.
Frank Sheppard, IIAB of SC
I always thoroughly enjoy reading your reports (and read them from cover to cover) and I am often found highlighting items in your articles as learnings! Thanks for all the insightful articles and facts.
Renee Durepos, VP Operations, Keal Technology
TAAR is the most-read publication in our office. From our view, it is the one publication that every agency should read.
Jim Krzywicki, CEO, Treeno Software
Keep up the fantastic work! Your publication saves me time by directing me to services that are appropriate for me and researching and reviewing stuff that is/is not going to help me.

Let's see if it is plane sailing Mr Bridges
Comments by Transport Minister Simon Bridges that Far North residents' anger over cutbacks to regional flights will be allayed by larger planes and cheaper fares out of Kerikeri, are just pure arrogance, says Labour's Te Tai Tokerau MP Kelvin Davis.
"I'm inviting Mr Bridges to come to Kaitaia – by plane - and then tell those people not to worry.
"The Far North is a huge area. People from Te Hapua, north of Kaitaia, already have a two hour drive to their nearest airport. They now face a six hour return drive to Kerikeri Airport, meaning a business trip to Wellington will include a 3am wake up call.
"Air New Zealand has totally ignored the impact their decision will have on the Far North region.
"Our transport infrastructure is totally knackered: Our roads are a mess, rail is non-existent and now we no longer have flights into Kaitaia.
"For some years now iwi and businesses have taken a step forward in terms of economic development, and then a decision like this knocks them back.
"The regions have held NZ together through the hard times. There aren't too many dairy farms in the main centres, not too much agriculture, apiculture, horticulture, aquaculture, viticulture.
"In fact the only culture the Far North is seeing is the culture where massive profits are more important than any corporate responsibility in trying to grow communities," Kelvin Davis said.


text: In Planet Explorers, it is the year 2287, one of the first colony ships sent out by Earth arrives at the planet Maria, in the Epsilon Indi Star System. During its landing sequence, something appears in front of the massive ship that causes it to lose control and crash into the planet. Some of the colonists survive in lifeboats, but what they find is an unforgiving land filled with creatures ready to outlast the visitors from Earth. Now the survivors must explorer, gather, build, create, fight, and ultimately, build a new home. Story Mode – Story mode is the main meat and bones of the game, it is the action-adventure-rpg-somewhat-4X segment, offering npcs, missions, colony building, farming, training, diplomacy, and of course, a storyline that you can follow or ignore. This story features a 17X8km world map with many unique character, landscapes, biomes, locations, and over 140 types of potential enemies. Even though we've made it seem like a very action oriented game in the trailers, in reality, players can choose to not fight so much as to just plant a farm, make some food, keep the colonists alive, negotiate with the sentient aliens, and defend the perimeter from the local life forms. That can still eventually arrive at the ending. And yes, there is an ending. Story mode also features coop with other players. Adventure Mode – This mode is based on a procedural map generated from a seed. It comes in a 40X40 kilometer map. Players will be able to complete random missions, defeat bosses, dive through dungeons, and explore different landscapes. This mode also features survival and versus. Build Mode – In this mode, there are no enemies and an infinite amount of building material. It also currently comes in a 40X40km map. Players will be able to build whatever they want in this mode, including everything in the Creations Editor. Think of this as the perfect testing ground to test everything you build. Or…it's your place to build your garden without ever worrying about the pesky aliens. Multiplayer allows Local Area Network and player hosted servers. We also have many official servers in the lobby. Coop – Coop comes in many selections, such as adventure mode, story mode, build mode, etc. This is pretty much an open world sandbox. Versus – This mode allows teams of up to 16 players to battle against 16 players from another team. We allow full terrain manipulation in this mode. It's a point based system where one team wins if they reach a certain point level based on kills, built objects, resources mined, etc.

Country Background:
The Federation is a small two-island nation in the Caribbean Basin. The island has been a sovereign nation since its separation from British rule in 1981. However, it remains a member of the British Commonwealth. The island is a member of the United Nations, the Organization of American States (OAS), the Caribbean Common Market (CARICOM), the Organization of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS), the World Bank, and the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

When was the last time you actually had a decent workout? Between work, sleep, having a social life, and the horrendous traffic situation we're forced to deal with every day, it's getting increasingly difficult to put exercise on your daily to-do list.
Like all good things, it's important that you make time for your own health. In as little as 10 minutes, you can work up a good sweat while increasing your heart rate. Here are four exercises you can try from the comfort of your own bedroom. The best part: They require little to no equipment to perform.
One of the oldest exercises ever is still used for a good reason: it works. To start, get into a braced position facing the floor with your arms outstretched supporting your weight. Keep your back and shoulders straight. Bend your arms to lower your chest closer to the floor, then push back to complete the repetition. You'll feel this in your chest, shoulders, and triceps.
Start with your feet shoulder-width apart. Squat down with your back straight, making sure that your knees don't extend past your toes. Once your butt is as low as possible, push back up using your legs, driving through the soles of your feet. You can mix squats and push-ups together for a quick, upper- and lower-body workout.
To perform the exercise, start standing with your arms by your side. Squat down until your hands can touch the floor, then kick your legs back into a push-up position. From there, spring your legs back into a squatting position, then perform a jump to complete the exercise. You can do these in sets, or see how many repetitions you can manage in 10 minutes. After a while, you'll feel the burn in your thighs and lungs. For added intensity, add a push-up after you kick your legs back.
Jump rope
You can buy a jump rope almost anywhere, and just 10 minutes of jumping is enough to work your cardio. You can do the basic jump with both feet at a steady clip, alternate feet to test your coordination, or try and get two swings in per jump for a more high-intensity challenge.
Of course, a nice, long post-workout shower is just as important as the workout itself. Cool down and wash your hair with CLEAR Men—it contains Bio Nutrium for scalp nutrition and protection from dandruff. It also helps nourish your scalp, reduce dandruff, and leave you feeling fresh after every use.
CLEAR Men is available via Lazada and in all leading supermarkets nationwide. Follow CLEAR on Facebook to know more.

Entry #22:
I have met a displaced Jawa and have promised to find a way to get him home. But I am unsure if I can personally go do this as he is located on Coruscant and I have revealed my talents to an Inquisitor. If I do go back, I will need a really good false identity and be cautious in my choice of transportation.
We have started work on Peridia to form a replacement for the Expurgium's shelter and food pantry. Pistolwhip put up the seed money and now I need to write up an informational brochure to get local businesses on board.
Then we have contacted a journalist on Sullust who will help us expose the Expurgium there if we can get video of a member stating their hypocrisy.
So much to do but that is the life I chose, the life of a Jedi.
Entry #22: Part A: Solstice Day celebration
I don't know what prompted me to throw a party but something in me knew I needed to get over this hurdle. I hate most parties. So many couples, so many groupings of friends. Reminders of how alone I am in the galaxy, how separated I am from the others. And the one who would have likely figured out the significance of the date wasn't even there to share it with me.
It has been 22 years since I said this, "Happy Birthday to me". That's over; time to get back to business.
Entry #22: part B:
Timing is right so I will be using my vacation time to go to Coruscant to retrieve a Jawa and back to the Temple of Aepier to speak with the Master. There is information on the Book of Knowledge that he should know and the whereabouts of Stonecutter. Then to ask the difficult question, how will I know I am ready for the Master trials.
Were the Jedi council still in existence, I would not even be asking this question. But they don't exist so I need to ask. In a way I know it is very soon to be asking but we live in a different time. There is almost nothing left of the Jedi order and I keep feeling my time on this plane of existence may be coming to a close much too soon. It would be a waste of Master Sillo's training for me to not be able to take on a padawan. It is what he wanted, a way to perpetuate the Jedi order.
His plan was to have one trained in the traditional way and for another to use the holocron of the Order of the Silver Jedi which he gave to Choth. But I fear Choth has become possessed by his greed as demonstrated by his collection of lightsabers and that the holocron has been horded along with them. It is probably sitting untouched on some shelf instead of being shared.
I feel compelled to continue the Jedi order. Down deep that is and likely has always been my calling. I want to give my padawan what I wasn't given; full training in all areas and not just Force power training.
But do I have time for the Master trials? In good conscious I can't let our work into ridding the galaxy of the Expurgium slide by and sit idle while I do something personal. But think of the training for a padawan to be a part of learning how to deal with such a complex problem like we face in the Expurgium. Talk about being caught in a loop, a Catch 22.
I will just need to wait and see what the Master says.

Most people in the desktop gaming world are familiar with Valve's Steam service. Last year they added a new feature to the regular desktop app called Big Picture. This newer interface for Steam is intended to be more TV and controller friendly while still being perfectly usable with a traditional mouse and keyboard. This year Valve announced its new Steam Machine, which will bring a Big Picture-type interface into a stand-alone entertainment system.
Note: Read more about SteamOS and related hardware on Steam's site.
Powering all of this and more (keep reading) is Valve's SteamOS software. This Debian-based operating system slices out much of the overhead from separate OS tasks like you would expect to find in a normal gaming setup and gets straight to Steam. Valve has made the beta version free to download, so let's take a look at the steps to set it up.
Minimum Hardware Requirements
(from Steam's website: store.steampowered.com/steamos/buildyourown)
Intel or AMD 64-bit processor
500GB hard drive
NVIDIA graphics card (AMD and Intel support coming soon)
UEFI-boot capable motherboard
USB port (and a 1GB+ USB stick to put in it)
Note: The install method presented here will completely erase your hard drive. USE WITH CAUTION!!!
What I Used
This happened to be what was available. If I had time and resources, I'd certainly find a better graphics card.
Intel i7
2TB hard drive
16GB USB drive
NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GTX+
Setting up the USB Installer
You will need to format your USB disk as FAT32.
If you prefer to do this from the command prompt the Windows command for this is "format f: /FS:FAT32" where "f" is the drive letter for your USB stick.
Download the custom installer from: http://store.steampowered.com/steamos/download/?ver=custom
Once downloaded extract it (using 7zip or standard Windows tools) and copy the contents to the reformatted USB. If done correctly you should now have a working installer disk.
Starting the Installer
Insert your USB disk into the computer and boot it up. During the boot process you should be able to get to the "Device Select Menu" by pressing F12 or whatever key your motherboard/BIOS is set to use. This should get you to a menu looking something like this:
Select the installer disk (highlighted above) with the arrow keys and hit enter. You should now be presented with:
Simply hit enter (assuming the Automated install is selected), and it'll go off and do its thing. Eventually it will reboot into a Linux environment.
After this process is finished we still need to do a couple of things manually: (1) set up wifi and accept the EULA, and (2) run the post_login.sh script to finish setup.
From the login screen (above), select "GNOME" as the environment and login as username: "steam" and password: "steam". If you're using wifi like me, you'll need to connect to the internet at this point. Use the wireless drop-down in the top-right to find and connect to your network.
Note: If you use a hidden wifi network you may need to trick the OS into letting you connect to it. Set up a temporary open wifi network (I used an Android phone to create a fake hotspot) and connect to it. Then use the wifi drop-down on the desktop to get to Network Settings. From here you can edit the wireless connection and select "Other" and then "New" from the drop down menus to manually enter your wifi information.
Once you've connected, open a terminal using the activities box in the top-left to search for "terminal." From here run the command "steam" to launch a regular desktop interface to Steam. After you accept the EULA, install updates, and log in you're ready to move on.
Sign out of the "steam" account and log in using the GNOME option and username: "desktop" password: "desktop". Once logged in, open terminal again and run the command "./post_logon.sh" to start the post-install script. It will ask for a password ("desktop" again) and for permission to continue (y + enter) and the rest should be automated. When the system reboots again you should have a functioning SteamOS install.
Checking the Audio
If your audio remains silent after you've set up SteamOS, you may have muted devices. Thanks to an error report on github there's a pretty simple solution. In Steam settings go to "Interface" and enable the desktop mode. Now you can go to Exit -> Return to desktop to get back to the Linux desktop. Launch the browser (iceweasel, again from activities) and download alsa-utils from here: packages.debian.org/wheezy/alsa-utils.
After the download finishes, open a terminal as above and use the following command to get to the file: "cd Downloads". Once there we need to run a command as root, but for some reason the "desktop" user has a different password after post-install. To fix this run "passwd desktop" to trigger a password update (I just changed it back to "desktop"). After that's done run "sudo dpkg –I alsa-utils_1.0.25-4_amd64.deb". When this finishes run "alsamixer" to see your audio devices.
Use F6 to select your sound card and then make sure the volume levels aren't muted (shortcut is "m") or too low. In my case, the master volume was muted by default. Once this is changed double-click the "Return to steam" link on the desktop to get back to the regular interface. If all went as planned you should have working sound!
Setting up your Games
After installation the Big Picture style interface will come up and allow you to log in to your Steam account and download your games. For the moment only Linux compatible games are supported. I tinkered with Half Life 2: Episode 2 and Counter Strike: Source doing side-by-side comparisons with my regular machine and they ran just fine aside from the weak graphics card. Eventually we'll be able to stream games from existing hardware to a Steam Machine over LAN to combine the power of a custom gaming rig with the convenience of a small gaming console and a good TV. If you want to see what the UI will be like check out the Big Picture feature in Steam on your current machine. The interface is nearly identical.
Stuff "Coming Soon" and Others that Should Be
You can read more on the Steam site, but the short version is that streaming (not just normal media, but all of your games from existing machines on your home network) and family options (restrictions and easier game sharing) are coming to SteamOS in the "near future". Personally, I'd love to see some kind of dual-boot option and general setup improvements (see wifi and audio above).

Nike's Air Max 2013 has successfully continued the brand's fully-cushioned heritage, and is now taking on a different shape as we're half through the year. The EXT rendition of the runner is a little more rugged looking than its original counterpart. The first colorway to release is a white/red/black make-up and is a surefire way to introduce running fans into this "v.2"-like sneaker. If you're digging these joints, you can cop them directly from Nike, here.

So I'm all bundled up to face the brisk cool Washington air and I couldn't be happier. Spending time with family over the holidays is so special and important to me. I'm so lucky that both my boyfriend and my family live near each other so we get double the family time in one trip! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving and have recovered from all the Black Friday shopping madness!

We're entering our third round of Hoppus Swappus today. In case you're new to the party, here's what's going on:
Mark Hoppus is getting a new office here at Fuse and he wants to renovate with a swap! He'll give you an item from his old office in return for something of yours. The first 50 responses with links to a photo or video of your stuff will be considered by the Hoppus team, and the best one will be chosen for the swap. Mark will offer up a different item each Monday until he runs out of stuff he's willing to part with. TIP: Don't forget to make the photo public if you're sharing via Facebook.
This time Mark is is trying to unload an electric disco ball guaranteed to add some flare to even the lamest of gatherings.
Want some insight into Mark's taste? Last week's Hoppus Swappus #2 winner, Dakota Tanner Gilliland stole Mark's heart with his painting of a zombie John Wayne vs. robot. Grace Low won Hoppus Swappus #1 with a fun stationary set. We know there's more great sh*t out there just waiting to be swapped, so post yours in the comments now!
UPDATE: This week's winner is Elisa Leon's amazing illustration of Hoppus and a unicorn.

Boiler Installation, Boiler Repair & Boiler ServiceStrongsville, OH, Medina, OH, Brunswick, OH, Wooster, OH & Wadsworth, OH
For an efficient and reliable means of heating your home or commercial space, boilers are a rewarding option. The workhorses of the HVAC industry, boilers are a proven solution to even the longest winters and coldest days of the year. Gene's Refrigeration offers a range of innovative Carrier brand products, making sure you enjoy superior design, engineering, and cutting-edge features. Our factory trained and experienced technicians make sure your boiler perfectly suits the needs of your home and is properly installed. When you count on Gene's Refrigeration, we protect your investment with a 100% satisfaction guarantee on all products, material, and labor for one year after installation date.
Enjoy the benefits of a modern boiler system!
With relatively few moving parts, boilers are unlikely to break down. They are inexpensive to repair and maintain, and are incredibly durable, with extensive lifespans of often thirty years or more. A boiler system also protects air quality, avoiding the excess dust, debris, and contaminants often associated with forced air heating. While boilers have always been recognized for ultra-quiet operation, the introduction of modulation has resulted in systems that fire at varying rates for far greater efficiency. By adapting output to the exact heating requirements of the home, the boiler eliminates frequent cycling, maintains tighter temperatures, and conserves energy.
Proper installation of equipment is absolutely essential to long-term performance. Even a state-of-the-art boiler will fail to meet expectations for efficiency, capacity, and reliability, without skilled and conscientious sizing and implementation. Our level of both factory and in-house training, extensive experience, and adherence to strict installation procedures, ensures that your project is handled properly from start to finish. Whether you're looking for new installation or hoping to update your comfort, Gene's Refrigeration adds value to your home.
Contact Gene's Refrigeration for all your boiler repair and maintenance needs!

Like any type of HVAC equipment, regular maintenance and the occasional skilled repair will result in lasting satisfaction. The fully licensed, bonded, and insured technicians from Gene's Refrigeration are well-versed in all makes and models, and through proactive service, protect the lifespan, efficiency, and overall performance of your boiler system.

How American Soldiers Voted in World War II
Unlike today, voting for the World War Two serviceman was not such a straight forwarded affair. Numerous obstacles were in place to make absentee voting difficult or non-existent. It took a series of changes, each building incrementally to loosen-up the restrictions in time for the armed forces to vote in the Presidential election of 1944. One of the biggest changes was the political shift of the Republicans to allow (or at least not inhibit the Democrats) a federal presence in what is to be considered an area of states rights.

All the while you will grow… -Colossians 1:10
Here we are, still on Colossians 1:10. At this rate we will be studying the book of Colossians until next Christmas. Oh who am I kidding- we all know my attention span wouldn't last that long. Unless, of course, this is one way the Lord is instilling patience into me (insert heavy sigh…)
For those of you who can't remember yesterday (Christmas), let alone what you read about three days ago, here is a quick re-cap:
We are looking at Paul's prayer for the church of Colosse. The first thing he prayed in Colossians 1:9 is that the church would have spiritual wisdom and understanding. We read in Colossians 1:10 that there are four benefits to having spiritual wisdom and understanding. We have covered the first two so far. They are a life that honors and pleases the Lord, and a life that produces good fruit.
According to the next few words in Colossians 1:10, the third result of spiritual wisdom and understanding is growth. But what exactly are we to grow in?
It doesn't tell us in that verse what we will grow in. In order to know what that growth looks like we need to dig a little deeper and let scripture interpret scripture. In doing so I found three areas of growth. I am sure there are more, but as far as I am concerned three are enough for me to work on :).
Here is what I found:
Your faith will grow -2 Corinthians 10:5
The joy of your faith will grow -Philippians 1:25
Your love for one another will grow -2 Thessalonians 1:3
I don't know about you, but that sounds pretty good to me. I could use a little (or a lot) of growth in those areas. I could use a good growth spurt.
Last fall I took my kids in for their annual physicals. My thirteen year old son had growth eight inches in less than a year! At five feet nine inches I now need to look up at him to give him instruction. Though the growth occurred over a period of time, I didn't really notice it until the day I gave him a hug and my head landed in his armpit (not a pleasant place to land).
During his growth spurt, Thomas did not consciously do anything to promote the growth. He did not think tall thoughts, follow hopeful stretches like his sister did (she can't stand that he passed her up in height), and he definitely did not eat a healthy, growth conscious diet. He just went about his business being himself, while his body did what it was designed to do.
We all know the definition of a growth spurt in terms of physical adolescence, but what if we broke down each word into their individual definitions?
Growth: completed development
Spurt: a sudden burst or outburst, as of activity, energy, or feeling
What if we put the definitions together to form a spiritual definition of growth spurt? It would read something like this:
Growth spurt: the sudden burst or outburst of activity, energy, or feeling resulting in completed development
In other words, over a short period of time our faith, joy in faith, and our love for others will grow and be fully developed. Wouldn't that be awesome?
Have you ever experienced a growth spurt in your spiritual life? I am sure if we stop to think about it we can all identify times in our lives when we have experienced a spiritual growth spurt. Often times it comes in a period of trial, pain, and struggle. But what if there was a way to experience a growth spurt without first having to go through the trial? Is it even possible? If so how? We will answer that when we wrap up our verse tomorrow…
Dear Heavenly Father, thank you for loving me. Thank you for giving me spiritual wisdom and understanding. Thank you for growing my faith, my joy, and my love for others. Thank you for the work you are doing in me and through me. Use me today to be a light and a blessing to those around me. In Jesus' name, Amen.
Love, Grace, and a Growth Spurt of Faith,

Privacy PR Campaign to Address MobilityConsumer Education About Electronic Records Planned
The HITECH Act requires the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT, a unit of the Department of Health and Human Services, to conduct a nationwide communications campaign to educate the public about records privacy and security issues. To help it fine-tune its messages, ONC plans to hold focus groups and conduct surveys, interviews and other research while it's rolling out the 24-month communication campaign, according to a notice in the Federal Register. The announcement anticipates involving more than 40,000 consumers and healthcare professionals in that research.
In the notice, ONC describes plans to conduct research to "explore consumer attitudes and preferences regarding the communication of personal health information electronically using mobile devices." Researchers also will attempt to "understand attitudes and preferences regarding how privacy and security information is presented to consumers electronically."
Regarding the two-year education effort, the notice states: "ONC is working with the HHS Office for Civil Rights to oversee the education and communication activities to build approval for HIT [health information technology] adoption and meaningful use, educate the public about privacy and security and increase participation in health information exchanges."
ONC will accept comments on its "information collection request" for 60 days.

The age of microUSB is about to come to an end, and SanDisk is on hand to usher in the new reversible era. The company has just announced a 32GB flash drive with two connectors—one full-size USB 3.0 and one USB 3.0 Type-C. There aren't many things you can plug that Type-C connector into yet, but it'll be really neat when there are.
The smaller, reversible Type-C connector is expected to start showing up on phones and tablets in the next few months. It will eventually appear on PCs and other devices, but SanDisk is pushing the mobile angle. This USB 3.0 drive can be used on your computer with a full-sized port right now. There isn't a microUSB plug, so you can't really access any of that data on a phone just yet. The only Android thing with Type-C that I'm aware of is the Nokia N1, which is only available in China at the moment.
So this new drive is perhaps a little premature, but it's not coming out immediately. More capacities will become available later, but there's no pricing or release date for the first one yet. It's just SanDisk showing that it's ready for the future.

While the therapy is similar the difference is in the delivery method and power. The higher power of Magna Wave provides shorter treatment times and immediate results.
By increasing the blood oxygen in the whole body the sensitive area continues to be helped as super oxygenated blood from the rest of the body continues to flow through the area.
The blood oxygen is increased, lymphatic system is activated and acupuncture points are stimulated. This process reduces pain and inflammation and promotes healing.
Results can last a day or weeks depending on the problem. In a show situation one or two treatments per week is normally sufficient.
Muscle tissue palpitates in sensitive areas because of super oxygenation and molecule movement in the cells.
Normal treatment time is 20 to 30 minutes.
Results are immediate with continued improvement over time with additional treatments.
Immediately, there is no recovery time.
Yes, but at the trainer's discretion. However, we recommend that you try it on the horse ahead of time, since different horses react differently to treatment. We have found that some horses are more relaxed after the therapy, so might not have the same edge before a race. Other horses are not affected in that way. So try it on your horse before a breezing to measure its performance and decide for yourself.
While that's not a measure of its effectiveness, PEMF is actually approved by the FDA for the treatment of depression. Beyond the FDA, there are other mainstream uses for PEMF. Our own space agency, NASA, received a U.S.patent for the application of PEMF on enhancing tissue repair in animals. The research found that PEMF stimulates the growth of the fiercely researched stem cells.
PEMF technology has existed for hundreds of years, dating back to somewhat primitive civilizations, and has been used for a variety of purposes, including seed germination. Magna Wave was founded in 2002, and has been providing an avenue for wellness in both humans and animals ever since, using only top-of-the-line equipment and thorough certification training.
Yes, we offer both.
Lessons are scheduled at half hour intervals and are under instructor supervision. Students are encouraged to spend extra time at the stable for comradery as well as for learning. Teaching moments happen all of the time.
Lesson plans vary by level of ability and rider goals. We encourage and expect our students to learn all aspects of horsemanship including stall cleaning, general stable management and horse care. An authentic equestrian is well rounded.
Saddle seat or balanced seat as it is sometimes called and light horse driving are our primary disciplines. We are proficient in show type western, roadster, side saddle, hunt seat and basic dressage. We teach from a classical balanced seat approach. Jumping is not offered at our location and we will be happy to recommend someone in the area.
American Saddlebred, Morgan, Arabian, Hackney, Standardbred Road horses. We do work with other breeds on a case by case basis.
The Success In Saddles lesson program is based on the teaching pyramid which emphasizes competent basic skills development instilling classical techniques on riders or drivers and the foundation to compete at any level. We encourage participation in the appropriate level of competition as it a rewarding and fun measurement of your journey with a horse.
Hollybrook Farm is located on 48 acres of rolling land in Piedmont area of North Carolina. Twenty 12×12 stalls are housed in a Morton barn with an enclosed 50×50 round pen. There is a 200×70 outdoor arena with all-weather footing. A lovely lounge for clients is available for socializing. Out the front door of the barn is a pond with a fountain creating the most peaceful sound.
Each horse is unique and our program is designed for daily interaction with a consistent exercise program designed for specific goals. Typically, horses are exercised six days a week. We offer controlled turnout, riding, lunging, long lining, jogging and round pen work.
Yes, we do. Once we determine your goals and the level of horse which best suits your needs we can assist you in locating your new horse and will guide you through the purchase process.
Contact us either through this site or by phone or email. Visit out YouTube Channel to see the gear in action.
We love working with the AOT. Our style of training and teaching fits the needs of the amateur owner trainer very well.
Our training, clinic and riding instruction pricing is competitive to the region. Ironwear Equestrian Gear prices are based on individual sizes and quantity. Therapy prices vary from modality, on or off site and frequency of application. Please contact us for specific quotes.
The partnership with a horse is like no other. Horses reflect your instincts and mirror the way you handle yourself. Participation as a equine athlete instills respect, responsibility and empathy. Adults as well as children love the opportunity to unwind after a stressful day and to enjoy the nuzzle of the muzzle. Horse sports promote athleticism and intuition like no other. Riding or driving a horse requires physical fitness, timing, balance, attentiveness, and incredible observation skills. The reward comes in so many forms from knowing you are spending time with a magnificent creature to making lifelong friends. People who love horses and know they can ride or drive a horse with a degree of proficiency share a commonality that transcends boundaries often imposed by other sports.
PEMF Therapy
PEMF for pain therapy treats many musculoskeletal disorders that are a source of pain. These include arthritis, tendinitis, sprains & strains, fractures, post-op pain, osteoporosis, wounds, neuralgias, neuropathies, hip disorders, muscle spasms, spinal cord injury, trauma, burns, neuromas, heel spurs, phantom pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, headaches, tennis elbow, complex regional pain syndrome, etc.
Magna Wave PEMF for pain therapy is an effective & cost efficient option for a wide range of human & veterinary disorders.
