How to Tell if a Contact Receives Email Through Yahoo!
Sometimes, the immaterial nature of online communication can be a little nerve wracking, especially in the case of important business emails. Although Yahoo Mail does not offer a return receipt or delivery confirmation feature as of the time of publication, the company reassures users that if you don't receive an error message in your inbox, your message has been received. Of course, you can't force someone to read an email but you can use numerous simple methods to make sure the message made it to the recipient's inbox.
Log in to Yahoo Mail with your username and password. Check your inbox for an error message. This message "bounces" your email back into your inbox along with a report of nondelivery. Bounced emails occur when the recipient's inbox is full, his address is no longer valid or his mail server is temporarily unavailable. If you receive this message, your contact has not received your email.
Look in your "Sent" folder. Log in to Yahoo Mail. On the left-hand sidebar, click the word "Sent." This brings you to a list of emails you have successfully sent. From left to right, it displays the email address of the recipient, the subject of the message, the time and date at which it was sent and whether or not it contained any attachments. Click any of these items to view the full content of the email. If your email appears in the "Sent" folder, your contact has received the email. Check this folder immediately after sending important emails; if the message does not show up in the folder -- typically due to a faulty Internet connection or closing the Yahoo Mail window too soon -- resend the message. Check the "Drafts" folder, also on the left-hand sidebar, before resending; an in-progress draft of the email saves you from having to rewrite the entire message.
Ask the recipient to reply with a confirmation message. Simply add a line at the bottom of your outgoing message that asks the recipient to email you back upon receipt. You can even explain that you don't require a full response to the email -- a simple "got it" will do. Although it's not a fail-safe method by any means, this may help convey the importance of the message to the recipient.
- Turn to third-party applications to get confirmation that your contact has not only received your email, but has read it as well. Free services such as SpyPig send you notifications when the recipient reads your email. Services like this requires you to enter your Yahoo or other email account information, at which point you'll receive a tracking graphic. Embedding this graphic into your outgoing email via drag-and-drop allows you to receive information including whether or not your contact has read the email, how many times it was read and even the IP address of the recipient.

the center to advance further in clinical trials to gather more evidence on whether its treatments really work consistently or not.
So, what was it about the state of the art in the science that convinced the Bezos family to open up their checkbook? Appelbaum was a lot more talkative about this. He pointed to four important discoveries that have been made at the Hutch. (Warning: I've tried to distill this science into something reader-friendly for non-biologists, but it's still technical.)
—Research by Cassian Yee that showed a long-term complete remission in a patient who got an immunotherapy after relapsing on prior treatment for melanoma that had spread through the body. Yee's team drew some blood from the patient, and found a new way to grow up billions of additional "helper" T cells in the lab that were made to recognize a hallmark on cancer cells. The helpers are supposed to marshal growth factors to the so-called "killer" T cells that fight tumors. When the expanded number of "helper" T cells were re-infused into the patient, without any additional drugs, the tumors disappeared and the patient went into remission, according to this paper in the New England Journal of Medicine.
By provided added helper T cells, that enables the patient's killer T cells to recognize a more diversified array of markers on cancer cells, Appelbaum says.
—Work by Stanley Riddell into how to make immunotherapies last longer. Scientists have long tried to separate out killer T cells of the immune system in the lab, grow them up in greater numbers, and re-infuse them, Appelbaum says. This can sometimes produce tumor shrinkage, but it usually doesn't last very long, he says.
Riddell's insight was to show how certain immune system cells have different kinds of "memory" to attack certain invaders. Most T cells "fight a battle that's short-lived" against certain pathogens like flu, and then die off when the job is done. Yet some T cells, like those programmed by a measles vaccine, can remember the signature of that kind of invader and leap to the body's defense for many years, Appelbaum says. Riddell's work—which has been done in mice, not people—has shown that he can stimulate this longer-lasting immune memory against a cancer cell for a year, Appelbaum says.
—Philip Greenberg's lab has done experiments that take an up-close look at how T cells actually bind with the protein receptors on cancer cells, Appelbaum says. Usually these bonds are "loose," or what scientists call low-affinity. By swapping out certain genes, Greenberg's idea is to grow up T cells outside the body, and filter them so that patients get re-infused with the best type of cells that can form 100 to 1,000-fold tighter, stronger bonds to the receptor that scientists want to hit, Appelbaum says.
—Lastly, experiments by Thomas Spies have identified a molecule secreted by cancer cells that serves as a decoy, so that T cells get thrown off track before they can gang up on the tumors. The idea is to develop a targeted antibody that eliminates these decoys. That drug would be given before the patient has their revved-up T-cells re-infused, Appelbaum says.
Add it all together, and Appelbaum says this is why he wants to accelerate the research. "You can give people helper T cells to get a broader response, you can provide memory to make them last longer, and you can engineer them to have higher affinity for the target," he says.
It's too early to say there's much in the way of medical proof that these ideas will work on a large scale, however. The Hutch may need help from biotech or pharmaceutical partners to commercialize the work. Immunotherapy has long been plagued by promising anecdotal responses that weren't reproduced in the rigorous setting of randomized clinical trials. But Appelbaum insists that he's optimistic about the chances of this new approach for melanoma, kidney cancer, breast cancer, sarcomas, gastrointestinal tumors, and other malignancies.
"It's an educated bet," he says. But, he added, he'd be "very disappointed" if it fails.

Corporate Philanthropy –
is the business of doing good, good for business?
We all know that helping others is good for our individual health. Research at the University of California, Berkeley and Michigan for example has found that people who give back to their communities feel happier, are less stressed and live longer. But what of corporate giving? Is there evidence that helping others to flourish helps an organization to flourish too? At BuzzParent we believe there is and so we donate 20% of what we earn to charity. We think you will find corporate giving is a win-win all round; for you, your employees, your business and society as well.

No one could recall a day when the parking lot of what was once a grocery store was so full of cars.
As the Granville location of Tractor Supply Company made its opening official, the parking lot outside was filled to capacity requiring shoppers to park across the street or in the empty lot in front of the former Ames department store.
"The community has been just great to us and I feel blessed to come out here – it's just been great," store manager Travis Fisher said.
Fisher said since the store's soft opening the business has been steady.
Eyeing the lines at the store's two registers Fisher said he was curious to see what the biggest holiday shopping day of the year Black Friday brings to the store.
Several employees and company officials lined up with Granville Supervisor Matt Hicks, Mayor Brian LaRose and former Mayor Jay Niles to cut the ribbon and make the store officially open.
LaRose and Hicks deferred to Niles, the driving force behind getting the store into the village, for comment on the moment. "I'd like to congratulate Tractor Supply on this moment and for a successful store opening," Niles said. "I'm happy they will be here to provide shopping opportunities to our citizens and to further expand economic development in this area. I'm very pleased," Niles said.
The current mayor said he was equally pleased to have a new business within the village.
"I just want to welcome Tractor Supply to the community and echo what Jay said. We've always been very pro-business in the village and we want to make it feasible for new businesses to come into Granville and still support our pre-existing businesses," LaRose said.
Agreeing Niles and LaRose, Hicks quipped he looked to the added bonus of having the new store in town: "I'm happy I can do all of my Christmas shopping without leaving town."

The van market has always been pretty baffling. It's one of the market crowded with big names and numbers thus needs high-tech analysis. There are many factors anyone looking for a van such as sprinter vans or passenger van needs to consider when planning purchase. The factors include loading space, wheelbase, height, and length among others. Reviewing what is fits your needs is vital for your business.
Here is a list of vans you should consider purchasing in 2017:
Ford transit:
Are you surprised to see this splinter van into our list? Ford has infamously described it as the "backbone of Britain." The manufacturer has already passed the 7 million sales mark by early 2016; reason being it's an incredible van has so much to offer.
Already there 450+ different ways to spec-up a passenger van. Thus two to three variations are appealing to buyers.
The van has short and long wheelbase choices available, body lengths, roof heights and more. The van is made to suit everyone needs. Larger models are available that feel nimble on the roads. The vans have a direct steering and well-judged suspension, the same reason we have so many transit van on the road today.
Volkswagen Crafter
This passenger van brings VW group technology to the panel van market. It's one of the high-quality commercial vans to users. It's a powerful machine, with a 2.0-liter TDI diesel engine with 100bhp, 138bhp or 174bhp.
The van is a front, rear and four-wheel drive version with a choice of 6-speed manual and 8-speend automatic gearboxes. It offers a maximum of 18.4m3 cargo volume and loading heights up to 2,196mm.
The passenger van spec list is very extensive, thus if you'd like to see a full list, check passenger vans for sale. It has a lot to offer, and most users say it's a van to keep selling in 2017. Click here !
Mercedes-Benz Sprinter
The Mercedes-Benz is indeed a big name in the van market, with many types of commercial vehicle available for purchase.
The Sprinter van has stolen the show, with its impressive different body makeup on three wheelbases. It has found different body height and a three roof height. Its fuel consumption goes to 2.2-liters four cylinders deliver 96bhp, 129bhp or 163bhp. The 3.0-liters V6 has 190bhp. Thus no day you will be short of van power.
The sprinter van offers a superb choice to tailor fit to your needs without compromising any technology and the top on the market list.
The Vauxhall Movano
The van now has two sister models named the Renault Master and the Nissan NV400, it's one of the ones that takes center stage among the three. The van has a loading volume of 7.8m3 to 17m3, thus offering plenty of space for your products.
It's the top passenger van offering carrying options, with a 9-sat version and a full-on 17-seat minibus. You are lucky to choose body lengths and three different heights with a simple to get Mavano that fits your cargo needs perfectly.

The inimitable Mission of Burma have graced us with their presence a lot recently – first, back in December at Maxwell's for one of the Yo La Tengo Hanukkah shows, then Maxwell's again this past Friday. But according to fans who saw all three, this bigger show at The Bell House was the king of them all. It is not uncommon for legendary bands of Mission of Burma's generation to get by on autopilot, playing the old songs everyone wants to hear in a lower-energy, lamer fashion that is just good enough to sell tickets. But true the ethos they have maintained throughout their decades-long career, Mission of Burma have managed their comeback with integrity and grit. Along with timeless punk classics, the band has moved forward to produce vital new material that holds up well to the rest of their catalog. This show found the band playing four songs from their 2009 LP, The Sound, the Speed the Light, but after that, it was back to the old days for this amazing and, at 80+ minutes, lengthy, set. With the legendary producer Bob Weston behind the board running the band's sound and tape loops, the sound was dialed-in and, per Bob's custom, ear-splittingly loud. Whether you were a new fan coming to see what the fuss was all about, or a longtime fan, you were not leaving this show disappointed – especially not after MOB closed the set with the song that started it all, "Academy Fight Song."
I recorded this set from our usual spot in the venue by the soundboard with the DPA microphones and a hand-built analog preamp to bring a warm, classic sound. The results are excellent. Enjoy!

Alex Nwokolo (born 1963) was one of the front liners of the Nigeria art scene; he grew up in Lagos before completing a Higher National Diploma at the Auchi Polytechnic in 1991, followed by a Masters of Fine Arts (MFA) at the University of Benin in 2000. He has received numerous awards and prizes such as the American Ambassadors Prize in 1991 and the Guinness Certificate of Merit in 2004.
Nwokolo is a celebrated painter, known for his figures, portraits, natural landscapes and rooftop cityscapes as well as mixed media work. He identifies primarily as a mixed media artist. This identity makes sense given the range of techniques and genres that he has worked in, producing both realistic portraits in oil paint on canvas and totally abstract wall installations in metal.

The phrase "because I like it" does not cut it when it comes to choosing styles and materials for architecture structures and interior design elements. When choosing a stainless steel object, whether it be stainless steel balustrades, a pan or even a kettle, above the aesthetical value of the material, other properties should be taken into consideration.
Determine Potential Causes of Damage
Stainless steel is very robust and durable; however, like all other materials, there are various factors that could potentially cause corrosion, namely:
- Situation. Stainless steel inside a building is protected from elements, such as rain, that would normally affect it if it were outdoors.
- Exposure to salt air. Areas near the coast have a higher level of salt than inland areas. The exposure to salt air may damage the material.
- Weather conditions. High levels of humidity and high temperatures may cause the material to corrode after a while.
- Environment. Pollution, usually more dense in industrial, urban and rural areas, can possibly cause the material to corrode.
The above factors need to be taken into consideration when determining the ideal grade of stainless steel for a project.
Apply Surface Finish
Once you have chosen a suitable grade of stainless steel for your item or project, you can still improve the durability and aesthetic appeal of the material. For exterior purposes, corrosion control is very important. Rough stainless steel surfaces can succumb to more corrosion, while smoother surfaces do not accumulate as many corrosive elements.
To avoid corrosion all together, you can apply a suitable surface finish, PVD coating (Physical Vapour Deposition). The coating is available in a range of colours and surface finishes and is ideal for any stainless steel application.

In a fascinating new book, a former Google data scientist offers a whole chapter about his brief misadventures in trying to apply big data — what we know from massive amounts of Internet searches — to investing.
The chapter, part of the book "Everybody Lies: Big Data, New Data, and What the Internet Can Tell Us About Who We Really Are" by Seth Stephens-Davidowitz, opens with a meeting between the author and Larry Summers, the well-known economist and former Treasury Secretary under Bill Clinton.
Summers is frighteningly brilliant, the author relates, and after some discussion about big data methods, he gets down to business. Could data be used to beat the stock market?
Maybe, the author postulates. So they try. And they fail, for reasons Stephens-Davidowitz explains. In simple terms, investing is just too complex to narrow down to sentiment gleaned from Google searches, even a lot of them.
Now, another data scientist has come up with an interesting analysis as to why Warren Buffett seems to always win big at investing. Essentially, the data say, it's because he's a positive guy.
You've probably heard of Buffett's famously positive outlook. He's a big booster of American capitalism for one.
Lucky babies
As he told investors in Berkshire Hathaway, his holding company: "I'll repeat what I've both said in the past and expect to say in future years: Babies born in America today are the luckiest crop in history."
Is it simply a matter of seeing the bright side of things? An analysis of words used by Buffett over four decades of letters to shareholders suggests so, says Michael Toth, a data scientist and former portfolio analyst at BlackRock.
"He uses words like 'outstanding,' 'excellent,' and 'extraordinary.' To me this communicates that he has strong confidence in his optimism, and that he is comfortable committing to and expressing that optimism," Toth told CNBC. "The negative words he uses, particularly cases like 'unusual', and 'difficult' seem to refer to challenges and unique circumstances."
The few times he dipped into negative terms, it was with reason. His less-than-sunny letters tend to appear during recessions. That happened just five times.
As Stephens-Davidowitz would argue, there's a huge risk in seeing correlation and assuming causation. Just because Buffett talks happy, that doesn't mean stocks are going to go up.
Rather, stocks go up and it doesn't surprise Buffett when they do. When the contrary happens — inevitably, the economy slips and stocks fall back — Buffett doesn't try to dress up bad news as good.
Bad news first
In fact, as he often counsels his own managers, bring the bad news first. He does the same thing when talking to his investors.
All of this neatly lines up with the long-term investment experience. Bull markets last longer than bear markets. Stocks tend to outpace inflation. Prudently invested money compounds.
To reject these ideas as mistaken or naive is to reject the experience of decades upon decades of economic growth. As Buffett told investors in his 2015 letter:
American GDP per capita is now about $56,000. As I mentioned last year that — in real terms — is a staggering six times the amount in 1930, the year I was born, a leap far beyond the wildest dreams of my parents or their contemporaries. U.S. citizens are not intrinsically more intelligent today, nor do they work harder than did Americans in 1930. Rather, they work far more efficiently and thereby produce far more. This all-powerful trend is certain to continue: America's economic magic remains alive and well.
If you turn on financial TV news or head to the Internet, the story often is one of uniform disaster. Things could not be worse. It's all downhill from here. Time to do something drastic.
To which Buffett likely would chuckle and shake his head. Sell your investments if you think it's the end. But don't be surprised when the end doesn't appear on your schedule.

To be perfectly candid, I think the whole Jersey Club movement is somewhat overhyped. Don't get me wrong: there's some really great stuff out there, and some pretty spectacular artists jumping on the genre. After a while though, the bed squeaks start to get a little bit old, ya know?
That being said, this new remix of "It Won't Stop" by Chris Brown and Sevyn Streeter from Hunt for the Breeze & Manila Killa is absolute fire, and should not be overlooked: I've had it on repeat since I got it. The way these guys spun the track shows they really know what they're doing, and not only that, they know how to execute. I think it's safe to say these boys have restored my faith in the Jersey movement. And even if you have no idea what I'm talking about, make sure to show your support because this remix may just be the freshest thing all week.

I have two pictures hanging in my office creatively done by some obscure artist using a mixed media of what else? Butterfly wings.
I acquired these pictures at a sale many years ago. They were not by any well known, or up and coming artist, but they appealed to me.
Brought them home, and wasn't sure where I would hang them, until I discovered that they looked very much at home on my office wall...and they have been there ever since.

Sometimes I wonder how my 2-yr-old finds the will to wake up in the morning. Imagine waking up, minding your own business, reaching to touch those pretty holiday decorations when all of a sudden, "No!" Oh, ok. Well I'll just stick my hand in this porcelain bowl full of cool water. That should be refreshi- "No!" Wha? Ok, well… these walls look awfully drab. I should decorate them with the colors of the rainbow using these magic waxy sticks! That should brighten everyone's da- "NOOOOO!!!"
I wonder how much it would take to finally break a child's sense of wonder and curiosity. What would it take to make him content with all he knows so that he isn't trying to figure out what happens when you stick a fork in an outlet. (PLEASE don't be that kid who puts a glow stick in the microwave. What a ding-a-ling.) All joking aside, it's certainly reasonable to create boundaries for our children to live in. At the same time, giving your children opportunities to hear you say "Yes!" is one of the most empowering things you can do.
I routinely set up situations that allow me to say yes to anything my children ask for. It doesn't take much. Take them out to an empty field on a rainy day. DAD! Can I climb that hill? "Yep!" Puddles! Can we jump in puddles? "YES." Mudballs! Can we throw them at you? "N..Nnnggh… Nnnn… ugh… yes." After giving them permission to be who they are, take note of how they respond to life the next day. They are more content, less irritable, and trust you when you tell them things like, "maybe later." This practice isn't reserved for children but for anyone who looks to you for leadership. If you're a manager, have special meetings where people are able to share ideas and make a concerted effort to not shut them down. If you lead any type of creative group, create moments where people are allowed to step out of the box without being discouraged. People are willing to follow leaders who aren't afraid of their people's mistakes. A person who practices saying Yes will not lose people the moment they have to say No.
TL;DR – Create moments that allow you to say Yes. It inspires those around you to dream and adds weight behind moments when you have to say No.

"Give Me a Wink and an Abused Orphan": A Recollection of Work Nights and Nightmares
I can't write standing up. I've been trying for about 20 minutes now and it's just not happening. I know what you must be thinking:
"Stupid bitch…"
Ok, well not that. I meant this:
I knew that was in there somewhere!
But despite your cruel thoughts I insist that sitting down is not an option. I am currently at the hotel, where I work front desk part time. While I do enjoy this job, I have to say I have never been winked at so many times in my life. I'm half inclined to ask our manager if there is something going on with the ventilation system, as there seems to be an abhorrent amount of eye twitching going down in this joint.
I'm all like, ""What is this? A casting call for "Tour Ettes on a Budget?"
And he's all like, "That's not a movie, yo."
And I'm all like, "Oh yeah."
I'm sorry.
That wasn't funny.
Anyway. I've determined all of these sexually aggressive ocular spasms cannot possibly be related to air flow because that really wouldn't explain all the times I've been asked if I could perform private massage services…
…or if I wanted to see the inside of a king suite
…or if I'd like to try some all-natural cocoa dusted almonds
Word must've gotten around that I'm a sucker for chocolate nuts. Just a regular Wednesday.
Back to my point.
I cannot sit down because the computers are way too attached to the desk (like, totes insecure!) plus I have no chair. So yeah. I can't sit down, so I can't write. Not really. I mean, I can compose really poorly developed Tourettes jokes and hope you don't unsubscribe from this blog. But that's about it.
So in lieu of writing some super kick ass blog entry I know deep down I am capable of despite what I generally publish, I'm just going to tell you about a nightmare I had last night. Because you are reading this and by default you have to pretend to care.
SO the nightmare, or as I like to call it "Le Dream Noir" (that's not real French), was deeply disturbing and some kind of omen I think. Here's what went down:
I was sitting in an all-white room on a chair with a mirror in front of me. Pretty normal right? WRONG! I was wearing some sort of non-descript frock and…
my hair…
cut off!!!!
The torment could have ended there and it still would have been one of the worst fictional moments of my life. My hair is more important to me than my kidneys, so the thought of having it all choppy and gross like some abused orphan was not cool.
But then something much worse happened. I was looking closely at my face…
And my chin…
Was growing…
A beard!!!
And not a few unsightly hairs, but a full on, Spencer Pratt beard. I kept trying to yank out the beard in tufts of stubble but as soon as I would it would grow back, like Tim Allen in the Santa Clause or any Italian woman.
Soooooo, yeah. That was pretty much it. My hair chopped off and a beard growing on my face. I've been trying to look back and figure out what caused these cataclysmic events in my psyche and I can trace it back to one thing. This Facebook conversation with my friend, Jason:
I feel like my subconscious is trying to tell me something along the lines of "chillax you psychopath, beards do not make the man and emasculating men whenever you have the opportunity does not make you any more feminine!!!!!!" Or maybe I just spend an inordinate amount of time thinking about beards and this is what happens. Or maybe I feel hypocritical since, much to my dismay, very few of the men that I date ever have beards. Whatever the reason, I do think this conversation was a direct lead into that nightmare. Mystery solved. Or something.
So yeah.
I'm home now, finishing this blog entry, feeling like a fraud. Just a regular Thursday.
The girl who has a soft spot for the centipede family residing in her bathroom

Help IS Available.
Karyn Seroussi's book "Unraveling the Mystery of Autism and Pervasive Developmental Disorder"
When her son was diagnosed with autism at 19 months, Seroussi, a small-business owner and wife of a research chemist, determined to do everything in her power to help her child achieve normal functioning. In addition to pursuing recommended speech and behavior modification therapies for her son, Seroussi devoted her considerable energies – often against medical advice – to researching alternative approaches. Her own experience and a growing body of scientific evidence pointed to connections between autism and diet.
The use and stories of Ojibwa Tea of Life™ in Karyn Seroussi's book Unraveling the Mystery of Autism and Pervasive Developmental Disorder refer to our brand of essiac tea, Ojibwa Tea of Life™. Our company and participating individuals concerned with autism have designed materials and research for the use of this remedy. Specific guidelines and methods have been created for the way in which to use our product for the use of autism, PDD etc. No other essaic companies are involved in this project.
In the book Unraveling the Mystery of Autism and Pervasive Developmental Disorder, Karyn Seroussi describes the tea as a "homeopathic" Native American herbal tea. However, I offer the following correction: Ojibwa Tea of Life™ is NOT homeopathic but a four herb, organic/ethically wild-crafted blend.

Autism Network for Dietary Intervention
Current research shows that many cases of autism result from an immune-system dysfunction that affects the body's ability to break down certain proteins and combat yeasts and bacteria.
Many parents are convinced of the validity of dietary intervention for autistic individuals, but do not have the resources to try it themselves, especially those with picky eaters and skeptical spouses.
ANDI was established by parent researchers, Lisa Lewis and Karyn Seroussi, to help families around the world get started on, and maintain an appropriate diet. The ANDI mission is simple:
To help parents understand, implement and maintain dietary intervention for their autistic children.

Trademark Symbols, Credit Lines, and Trade Names
Proper trademark attribution through trademark symbols, credit lines, and trade names helps make the public aware of our trademarks, and helps prevent them from becoming generic terms. Credit lines also help clarify that they belong to FileMaker. Accordingly, FileMaker would appreciate you attributing ownership of FileMaker trademarks to FileMaker, Inc. by using trademarks symbols, credit lines, and trade names as outlined below.
Trademarks Symbols and Placement.
On products, packaging, manuals, advertisements and promotional materials, use a trademark symbol ("®" or "™") with the most prominent appearance of a FileMaker trademark. These symbols must be used at least the first time a FileMaker mark is mentioned in the text (after the title). Thereafter, you do not need to use the trademark symbol. For example:
Introducing FileMaker Pro for Windows
The FileMaker® Pro database allows you to manage your information more effectively without having to learn complicated programming commands. FileMaker Pro is a very powerful database application.
Credit Lines.
Credit lines should appear either at the beginning or end of your manuals, publications, or other materials. There are a few general rules to follow when preparing credit lines: You should not include trademark symbols (® or ™) or the extension (such as "Pro" or the version number) in the credit line. You should not include trademarks in the credit line if the trademarks do not appear in the materials.
Sample Credit Line: FileMaker is a trademark of FileMaker, Inc., registered in the U.S.and other countries. FileMaker WebDirect is a trademark of FileMaker, Inc.
Trade Names.
Trade names are the actual business names of companies. trademarks and trade names are not the same, even though many companies use their trade names as trademarks. If you are using "FileMaker" as a substitute for FileMaker, Inc., you are using it as a trade name. Because they are nouns, trade names can be used in the possessive and do not require a generic term or a trademark symbol. Thus, you are not required to use a ® after "FileMaker" when it appears as part of the full corporate name or as a trade name. For example:
Corporate Name: This software was developed by FileMaker, Inc.
Trade Name: This software was developed by FileMaker.
Trade Name: FileMaker's latest software leads the industry.
Trademark: The FileMaker® database leads the industry.
Other Copy Guidelines
You must not use any FileMaker trademarks, logos or designs other than those listed on the FileMaker trademark list as updated by FileMaker from time to time.
You must not use FileMaker trademarks on any promotional merchandise (e.g. shirts, key chains, mugs, mouse pads, etc.).
The size and placement of the FileMaker trademarks must emphasize clearly that you are an independent entity, and not part of FileMaker. In all cases, the visual affiliation between your company and FileMaker must clearly indicate the independent nature of the relationship between the two companies.
You may not represent your company as "official," "exclusive," "approved," or "franchised" by FileMaker.
Depiction of FileMaker products and services must be a fair representation of them as marketed and distributed by FileMaker. You may not use any FileMaker trademarks in any material, which contains subject matter, which FileMaker may deem, in our opinion, in poor taste. Further, you may not use the FileMaker trademarks in a manner or context that reflects unfavorably upon FileMaker or which will diminish or damage FileMaker's goodwill, in FileMaker's reasonable judgment.
You must not make any claims about FileMaker, its products or services, other than presenting current information, which has been published by FileMaker.
You are not authorized by FileMaker to use any other third party marks, even if they are used in connection with the FileMaker products or services.
The FileMaker trademarks are valuable property rights of FileMaker. Please treat them properly in accordance with the foregoing guidelines. Misuse of the FileMaker trademarks may subject you to trademark infringement or passing off claims.

Stamkos scores twice, leads Lightning past Sharks 6-3
Steven Stamkos scored twice and NHL points leader Nikita Kucherov added a pair of assists as the Tampa Bay Lightning defeated the San Jose Sharks 6-3 on Saturday
TAMPA, Fla. -- A three-point night from Steven Stamkos sent the Tampa Bay Lightning into their extended All-Star break with another victory.
Stamkos scored a pair of goals in the third period and Tampa Bay beat San Jose 6-3 Saturday night.
NHL points leader Nikita Kucherov added a pair of assists.
Victor Hedman finished with a goal and two points.
Alex Killorn, Mathieu Joseph and Yanni Gourde also scored for Tampa Bay, which is 6-2 since the Sharks ended the Lightning's 16-game streak of consecutive games with a point on Jan. 5.
Andrei Vasilevskiy made 36 saves and recorded his 20th victory of the season.
Evander Kane had two goals, and Marcus Sorenson also scored for the Sharks, who dropped their second consecutive game since winning seven in a row.
Martin Jones stopped 20 shots and had his personal eight-game winning streak halted.
"I didn't think the score was super indicative of how the game went," said Kane, who has four goals in two games against Tampa Bay this season. "I thought we carried the play to be honest for most of the game. But every mistake we made or when we took penalties, they capitalized on those opportunities."
San Jose played without All-Star defenseman Erik Karlsson, who was a late scratch despite participating in warmups.
"He's been dealing with something for a little while here and he felt that he was going to be able to play through and just couldn't," Sharks' coach Peter DeBoer said. "We'll see how he feels (Sunday). I don't have a full report on what is it. We're not going to risk anything with him."
DeBoer indicated shutting down Karlsson for the final two games before the All-Star break is an option they will consider.
The Lightning pulled away in the third on a pair of goals from Stamkos. He took a pass from Kucherov and scored on a wrist shot high to the stick side at 5:08, and added a power-play goal with a one-timer off a pass from Hedman at 14:15 for his 26th goal of the season. Stamkos reached the 25-goal mark for the ninth time in his career.
"It's been a lot of fun contributing to the team with the season we've been having so far as a team," Stamkos said. "I got off to a little bit of a slow start, but I feel in rounding out my game, I've found myself putting myself into better positions to create offense and score some more goals."
Kucherov's two assists gave him a league-leading 56 on the season. He has 78 points overall.
Joseph opened the scoring for the Lightning with his 12th of the season, taking a rebound of a shot by Anthony Cirelli and netting a backhand at 3:32. Killorn made it 2-0 on another rebound at 17:51.
Kane cut the lead in half with a power-play goal with 20.1 seconds left in the first period.
San Jose tied the game on the opening shift of the second period as Kane pounced on his own rebound off the end boards 58 seconds in.
But Gourde answered at 7:29, while Hedman scored a power-play goal at 12:01 to regain the two-goal edge.
"You have the 2-0 lead and give it up, that's tough," Lightning head coach Jon Cooper said. "But I thought we settled down (after the tying goal) and (Gourde) gets a big one to give us the lead. I liked the way we weathered the emotions of 'we coughed up the lead now we need to go get it back.' It showed a little maturity."
NOTES: Lightning RW Yanni Gourde scored his first goal since Dec. 29. . Sharks' D Marc-Edouard Vlasic missed his ninth consecutive game with a wrist injury. . Tampa Bay played its final game before going into its bye week. . Marcus Sorensen is the eighth San Jose player to reach 10 goals on the season. . Tampa Bay has held the top spot in the NHL standings continuously since Dec. 2.
Sharks: At Florida Panthers on Tuesday
Lightning: At Pittsburgh on Jan. 30

Trump outflanks Hillary after Republican convention – poll
Trump has managed to move ahead of Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton with 48 percent of support against 45 percent in a head-to-head matchup, a CNN/ORC poll released on Monday showed. In a four-way race that also involved Libertarian Party nominee Gary Johnson and Green Party nominee Jill Stein, Trump leads with 44 percent.
The poll involved interviewing 1,001 adult Americans via telephone by ORC International on July 22-24. The error margin is plus or minus 3 percent, according to the information accompanying the poll.
Trump is seen favourably by 46 percent of respondents in contrast to 39 percent before last week's GOP convention. Trump is considered to be honest and trustworthy based on the opinion of 43 percent of people, while last week the figure was at 39 percent. Thirty-nine percent also said that they would feel proud of Trump winning the presidency, while 32 percent had said that earlier.
Clinton has to deal with 68 percent of voters thinking she is dishonest and untrustworthy.
More than a half of respondents (52 percent) say Trump has no bad intentions and is running for the presidency for the good of the country. Nearly half say he understands the problems ordinary Americans struggle with every day.
Trump's bounce was made possible with independent voters. Forty-six percent say they back Trump, 28 percent Clinton, 15 percent Johnson, and 4 percent Stein. Trump also leads among white voters without college degrees, with 62 percent saying they would back him. Hillary Clinton is the first choice of 44 percent of whites holding at least a bachelor's degree.
Trump is now more trusted in settling economic issues, dealing with terrorism and managing foreign policy than Hillary Clinton, the poll continues.
The number of people who believe Trump will be able to unite the country has also increased – from 34 percent to 42 percent after the convention.
This is Trump's best performance in a CNN/ORC poll since September 2015.
The convention itself, however, was not seen as such a big success in the eyes of voters. Almost 58 percent called Trump's speech terrible, the highest number since the question was introduced to the poll in 1996.
It is quite common that parties experience a boost in support in the days following their conventions, which can influence the opinions of a large number of people.
This is the first time since 2000 that a candidate has received such a significant bounce and has taken the lead after a party convention. Last time Al Gore and George W. Bush increased their support in a CNN poll both by eight points after conventions of their parties took place.

|09 - On the Imperfection of the Geological Record
|09-04 - On the poorness of our palaeontological collections
On the poorness of our Palaeontological collections.
That our Palaeontological collections are very imperfect, is admitted by every one.
The remark of that admirable Palaeontologist, the late Edward Forbes, should not be forgotten, namely, that numbers of our fossil species are known and named from single and often broken specimens, or from a few specimens collected on some one spot.
Only a small portion of the surface of the earth has been geologically explored, and no part with sufficient care, as the important discoveries made every year in Europe prove.
No organism wholly soft can be preserved.
Shells and bones will decay and disappear when left on the bottom of the sea, where sediment is not accumulating.
I believe we are continually taking a most erroneous view, when we tacitly admit to ourselves that sediment is being deposited over nearly the whole bed of the sea, at a rate sufficiently quick to embed and preserve fossil remains.
Throughout an enormously large proportion of the ocean, the bright blue tint of the water bespeaks its purity.
The many cases on record of a formation conformably covered, after an enormous interval of time, by another and later formation, without the underlying bed having suffered in the interval any wear and tear, seem explicable only on the view of the bottom of the sea not rarely lying for ages in an unaltered condition.
The remains which do become embedded, if in sand or gravel, will when the beds are upraised generally be dissolved by the percolation of rain-water.
I suspect that but few of the very many animals which live on the beach between high and low watermark are preserved.
For instance, the several species of the Chthamalinae (a sub-family of sessile cirripedes) coat the rocks all over the world in infinite numbers: they are all strictly littoral, with the exception of a single Mediterranean species, which inhabits deep water and has been found fossil in Sicily, whereas not one other species has hitherto been found in any tertiary formation: yet it is now known that the genus Chthamalus existed during the chalk period.
The molluscan genus Chiton offers a partially analogous case.
With respect to the terrestrial productions which lived during the Secondary and Palaeozoic periods, it is superfluous to state that our evidence from fossil remains is fragmentary in an extreme degree.
For instance, not a land shell is known belonging to either of these vast periods, with one exception discovered by Sir C. Lyell in the carboniferous strata of North America.
In regard to mammiferous remains, a single glance at the historical table published in the Supplement to Lyell's Manual, will bring home the truth, how accidental and rare is their preservation, far better than pages of detail.
Nor is their rarity surprising, when we remember how large a proportion of the bones of tertiary mammals have been discovered either in caves or in lacustrine deposits; and that not a cave or true lacustrine bed is known belonging to the age of our secondary or palaeozoic formations.
