Huawei Ascend G7 is the latest midranger in the company portfolio. It's headlined by a 5.5" 720p IPS display or 1280 x 720px and a 267ppi density. It has a quad-core processor with four Cortex-A53 1.2GHz cores, 2GB of RAM, Android 4.4 KitKat with Huawei's Emotion UI 3.0.
The camera set is comprised of a 13MP f/2.0 snapper on the back and a 5MP shooter on the front.
What's most impressive here is the built of the device. The Ascend G7 is 153.5mm tall and 77.3mm but what really stands out is the 7.6mm thickness. The smartphone tips the scales at 165g.
The Huawei Ascend G7 offers LTE connectivity and dual antenna that should be able to enforce a stronger network connectivity.
The Ascend G7 will cost just €299 and make it to Germany, Italy, Spain, Denmark, Hungary, the Netherlands Turkey, Poland, Norway, South Africa and Mexico first before making its way to other markets.
For a closer look at the Ascend G7, be sure to check out our detailed hands-on.

It turned out a bit different than originally intended, but I kind of like the outcome. I was thinking about all the things I think of when I think of Celtic and the result sort of turned out "Woods fairy meets Celtic warrior".
The next challenge I tackled was for the Etsy Bead Weavers again, this time for March and the theme Fashion Through the Ages. We were to choose a fashion style and create a piece of jewelry to complement it. Well, being a child of the 60's and 70's and a dyed-in-the-wool wannabe hippy, I had to choose something from that era. Since it's just a tad too early to list it on Etsy yet, I will delay posting a picture here until that's accomplished. I'll just let you see an in-progress pic. Suffice it to say, I'm calling it Flower Power.
The last challenge I'm working on right now (whew!) is for Kansas Etsy Team. We are a group of Kansas sellers trying to promote each other and the vast talent in our state. We decided to try the challenge approach to generate some interest in our team. Our first theme is Springtime in Kansas and entries will be due the first part of March. Here's a sneak peek at mine.
I'm thinking springtime Kansas skies, new soft green leaves and flowering redbuds. So far, so good, I think. This will eventually become a cuff, by the way.
Ah, challenges! Can't wait to see what the next one will be!

Here's a video of me putting MMA fighter Reuben Duran through a regimen for strength and condition/athletic efficiency.
I have been focusing much of my attention to the details that orient efficient biomechanics when an athlete is fatigued. I have found it all to common to see the fighters I have worked with begin to get sloppy in their stance when they are sparring under fatigue. In this video I cover some techniques to help prevent that neurological phenomenon from happening. Reuben has been progressing in a very rapid way and I am thoroughly enjoying training the guy. Great job brother!!!

Feeling caught up in the "chaos" of bringing your marketing mix up to speed? As a leading digital marketing agency, it's quite common for us to meet with Presidents, CEOs, Marketing VPs and Business Owners that are feeling the crunch of maintaining a competitive presence in the market while trying to integrate constantly evolving methods and technology. It can be tricky to stay on top, particularly if you're in the process of developing a new strategy for your business.
Getting started can feel overwhelming, even for those with previous experience building a marketing mix. There are countless details to keep track of, analytics to factor in, and it's easy to get lost in the noise.
So, how do you make sure you're set up for success? Follow the two points below.
To bring directional clarity to your marketing efforts, you need to make sure you're moving forward with cohesion between all streams and departments. It might seem counter intuitive to slow down, but more often than not, taking a brief pause to regroup can be extremely beneficial. Many businesses surge forward with new tools, but fail to properly understand the role each piece plays in achieving their long-term goal; it's only after the budget is spent that errors and missed opportunities become apparent-Certainly not ideal!
As a general rule of thumb, if you can't clearly identify the projected ROI and purpose of each part of your marketing plan, it's time to stop and evaluate.
Once you've taken the time to regroup, you'll want to focus your energy on decoding your customer base. What does that look like? Creating Buyer Personas can help you hone in on the personality, backgrounds, shopping preferences and goals of your target audience, making it easier to create personalized marketing content that "clicks" with the right consumer.
Tip: Use our FREE persona building guide to get started
If it still seems daunting to put together a marketing plan that maximizes your budget, there's no need to worry. Partnering with a trusted agency (like the award-winning team at Primal Tribe) can eliminate stress by placing your needs in the hands of industry experts. The right marketing agency will want to work with you to determine what your priorities are, and design a custom play that puts you on a smooth course to optimal ROIs.
If the thought of reviewing your current marketing strategy seems like a headache waiting to happen, remember: Stop. Focus. Breathe.
With a little help in the right direction, you'll have a perfect mix in no time!

Recovering from Prohibition
Throughout the 19th century, Americans from New York to California, from Missouri to Ohio, struggled to create a wine industry. By the early 20th century, American wine production, especially in California, was becoming a viable commercial enterprise. And then came Prohibition.
The Eighteenth Amendment to the Constitution, passed in 1919, closed the businesses that manufactured, distributed, and sold alcohol. The law did not discriminate among hard liquor, spirits, beer, or table wine. Exceptions to the law were allowed for religious and health reasons and, in the case of wine, Americans were allowed to make up to 200 gallons per year for their own consumption at home.
By the time Prohibition was repealed in 1933, the damage to the American wine industry had been done. The loss of knowledge about viticulture and winemaking, coupled with the destruction of equipment and facilities, meant that manufacturers had to rebuild an entire industry from scratch.
Grapes for the long haul
During Prohibition, California's vineyards actually expanded. Due to exemptions that allowed production of wine for personal, medicinal, religious, and ceremonial purposes, demand for grapes remained strong throughout Prohibition.
Growers were eager to supply citizen winemakers, and many had to replant their vineyards with grape varieties thick-skinned enough to survive the journey from California to the areas of highest consumer demand—cities like Chicago, New York, and Philadelphia. This favored the production of red wine grapes like Alicante Bouschet, Zinfandel, and Carignane over thinner-skinned red varieties like Cabernet and Merlot and white-wine grapes such as Chardonnay and Riesling.

The Revolution will be All-Ages or won't be at all.
This year we gain participated in the Comics Liberation Day in Espacio Shazam. We didn't take any pictures and this article is a bit overdue. Still, we wanted to share...
Today we woke up all combative and intellectual… as a present, we leave you this messy but lovingly made reflection.
Comics is art, and as such, it is rooted in creativity, the freest human tool of all. Consequently, we strongly believe there is no single way of making a comic. There is no set page number, format or target age, no professional degree that can tell you how it's done, when you don't even need to know how to write or draw. Much like you don't need certificates for art, neither do you need them for comics. You are not more of a comic artist because you work for a big corporate publishing house or because you make DIY fanzines, let alone because of the quality or price of your printing paper, or you artist's technique. A comic is a comic and that's that. Good, bad, average, but still a comic.
In short, there are endless forms of creating. And even though there are wonderful techniques for making our creations look and read great; creation itself is much more mysterious than any of those theories and may surprise us unexpectedly. We don't need (super) heroes, color covers, pinups, narrative acts, story arcs, cliffhangers, or any of these things which act as a crutch on creation, when comics are much more about creation itself than how we create.
We are so afraid of free creation! Dividing everything into panels, production guidelines and narrative acts, yet we're always blown away by some experimental comic. This eagerness to classify and categorize renders out efforts fruitless. Instead, when we take other points of view, when we constantly move and seek new grounds, our work is renewed and refreshed.
Thus, today we rise against all that never made any sense to us. Since we know the audience reads what exists, and if it doesn't exist, feels compelled to invent it, and that's precisely where we come in (we were and are the audience): not to satisfy, but to create. We didn't come to break the rules, but to follow our own, and to celebrate whoever follows their own heart in this endeavor. We want to see comics of all shapes and sizes. The last thing we want is to pose as experimental or groundbreakers, condemning the techniques we use and love (technique is technique and without technique there's no technique, y'know). We don't have lots of experience nor do we want to talk about it, we just draw and write; print and staple; we work with our hearts in our brains (or vice versa), gaining experience as we go along, but we will never be anything but ourselves.
In any case, let us make comics, again and again. Naturally, spontaneously, hypertheoretical, structured, chaotic, professional, amateur, in any way possible… but let us make them… nonstop. And maybe we'll find some meaning to what we are saying with all these comics.
Rodrigo: "Weon, no te vamos a dar nunca más vacaciones"
Feña: "Jaja, si… mucho tiempo para pensar weas".

Author's Notes: Adult content ahead
Chapter 12
Mandy really didn't know what she had got herself into. She was in a long-term relationship and she was about to risk it all. She was now on her knees in front of the man who had been following her. At first she was afraid but Lee was charming and knew how to manipulate her. She opens his pants. First the belt and the button, along with the zipper. He starts to breathe heavier while looking down at her. By her surprise he didn't wear anything underneath. She looks up and sees him smiling.
"You didn't expect that, did you? You know what to do next"
She pulls his pants down and takes him in her mouth. He sighs.
"Oh Mandy. You don't know how good that feels" He grunts and pulls her hair
She takes him deeper in her mouth. She never thought she would like it but he tasted good. She felt like moaning but she didn't want him to know she enjoyed it. He's closed his eyes and every suck she does, he pulls her hair. She uses her tongue and licks the tip of it. He calls out her name over and over again.
Suddenly there's someone at the door. It startles her and she stops.
"Keep going" He looks down at her
She tries to concentrate but the person outside keeps ringing the bell. She's about to stop again.
"Don't stop Mandy. Whoever that is can wait"
She keeps on. Just when he's about to climax, there's a knock.
"Mandy, are you home?"
She stops.
"Oh no, it's Ben"
"Fucking hell" He says upset "Don't you dare stop? You're gonna finish this"
She tries to but can't.
"I'm sorry Lee but you have to go"
"Not until you finish. Get it back in your mouth" He says irritated
"You'll get me into trouble. He will notice something is up"
He sighs.
"Oh damn. Just when I most enjoyed it" He says and pulls his pants back on
"I didn't know he would arrive so soon" She says and stands up
He gives her a passionate kiss but he doesn't want to stop. Ben is getting impatient. He knocks louder.
"You need to leave. Now" Pushing Lee away
"If you left him we wouldn't have to hide"
"Go and wait in the guestroom"
"Mandy" Ben shouts outside
"Does it mean you're finally gonna want to be with me?"
"Will you go already?" She hurries him
"OK" He says and does so
She goes to the kitchen to wash her face and then she goes to open the front door. She opens it and smiles.
"So you are home after all. I forgot my key" Ben says and gets inside
"No kiss?" She asks and closes the door
"I'm still upset at you" He leaves his suitcase in the hall and gets to the kitchen
She looks at the door to the guest room which is closed. She follows him. He's sat down by the kitchen table with a glass of orange juice.
"How was your trip?" She asks and sits down across him
"Productive. I got an acting job in the UK"
"That means what? Are we moving back?"
"No" He replies and takes a sip from his glass "It's for a month only"
"How come you came home so early?"
"I didn't have to stay longer. When the contract is done, there's no reason to stay"
"You could have called"
"Like I said, I'm still upset. Is he still following you?" He asks
"No, that's over"
"So he stopped just like that?"
"That's good then. If it wasn't things would be different. If I see him again I'm gonna get a restraining order against him"
She swallows.
"Well he's not so, no need to do anything"
"I hope so. I'm tired so I'll take a nap" He says and stands up
"Not gonna tell me how the trip went? Did you see your family? What kind of job is it and so on?"
"I'll tell you later" He says and leaves the kitchen
She follows to see where he would go. Luckily he gets to their bedroom and closes the door. She gets to the guest room where Lee meets her by the door and gives her a passionate kiss.
"The coast is clear" She whispers after the kiss
"Such a shame we got interrupted. I would have loved to come into your mouth" He whispers back while touching her lower lip
"That's it then. Goodbye" She says and is about to leave the room but he grabs her arm
"Don't think this is over. You still owe me"
"I don't owe you anything"
"OK as you wish" He opens the door
Instead of walking to the front door, he gets to the bedroom where Ben is resting and is about to knock.
"OK" She stops him by taking his hand
She drags him to the kitchen.
"What do you want?" She whispers when they get there
"I want you"
"Nothing else?"
"Well, I want to take you against the kitchen table. From behind" He gets closer to her
"I can only take you when Ben is not home"
"Afraid that we get caught? I can do it silently but can you? I very much doubt it"
"I don't want to get caught and I don't like what you just suggested"
"I won't hurt you. I'm very gentle" He moves her hair away from her face
"Do you really? I don't think you do. You want to hurt me"
"Make you scream, yes but hurt you. No"
"I don't know why I let you talk to me like that"
"Because you like it. It turns you on"
"Oh Lee. That's where you're wrong"
"It starts with denial. Before you know it, you can't get enough"
"You should leave. Ben is a light sleeper and if he sees you, you're in trouble"
"I already am. I want you right now but we're in the wrong place. Let's go to my car and do it there" He says and takes her hand
"You know I can't" She takes her hand away
"OK I should go. But tomorrow at lunch you won't get away. Bye sexy" He says and gives her a kiss
She stays in the kitchen and he leaves. She sits down by the kitchen table and sighs. He sure could talk. She didn't know if she should ignore him or make passionate love to him. Her feelings kept changing rapidly. It would just be a matter of time before everything would fall apart.

The DIY and Craft movement is infusing the world with color, breaking the monotony of mass produced products.
People are inherently crafty, children learn by creating and playing.
Overtime we often loose that playfulness, we simply say we dont have time to make a mistake and we go with what we know because its safe, or we let someone else do it for us. All of this robs us of the joy of using our hands and our minds to take a chance and create something that is truly special.

This 9 Euro eye shadow still glows in my dressing table and in my utter mood swings it glows eyes too. This is special. This is November Again, which is equally special. 29 November days have already passed and I have been waiting for the rain like previous years. But all this month the sun shone brightly making me more anxious and apprehensive. The more sun shone, the more anxious and apprehensive I became. There were no any signs of rain. Where are the impregnated clouds with rain this November? Where have they gone? For me, rain has something special about it but more special for me are rare rains like those in April and November here. Some memories are hidden at the depth of sub-conscious and it lies there stagnant and safe. Thinking of deleting it? -Not Applicable ~ do you like to erase it – they are inerasable. This is the very photographic memory of yours. Alas! I never let you to photograph me ~ while I snapped you unconsciously through my eyes and kept you safe in my sub-conscious. Like you, November Rain also ensconces in my sub-conscious somewhere. What is special about November Rain is what is special about you. You both are quite synonymous for me that is to say you both are supplement and complement of each other.
People say and I try to believe but never can I on a serious note – "Every ending is a new beginning". But when this comes at the very personal level the depth where it actually ends is never reached. It never ends until and unless one wants to end it. Trying to end is perhaps possible but ending it completely is just not possible ~ it always lies in the sub-conscious. I never let it end. Do you remember April? The month when we met for the first time, wasn't it destined? As soon as I reached home, the tiny droplets drifting away from the sky fell over my head and the very moment I receive a text from you "April Rain". Your short text messages killed me seriously. As I read, re-read your text "April Rain" again and again, the color of my cheeks gradually changed. Continue reading

I only have, like, 10 cutting boards left. I like the weight and feel of the finished work. I'm as concerned with the presentation as the image itself. I bought a bunch of cutting boards and have been working through them slowly. This one might be the first in a series. I think I'm a folk artist(?)!

The IA presents the draft amendment to the two unified motor insurance policies for public consultation
Abu Dhabi, May 17, 2015
The Insurance Authority (IA) called upon policyholders, specialists, experts and the public to collaborate with the IA to improve the draft amendment to the two unified motor insurance policies by providing their comments and suggestions regarding the terms of the draft policies relating to loss, damage and liability.
The IA has posted the two draft policies on the IA's website www.ia.gov.ae and email to receive suggestions and inputs from policyholders and the public.
This initiative came in lines with the IA's endeavor to promote the approach of dialogue, exchange of opinions and ideas, and engaging the stakeholders in the draft laws and regulations developed by the IA, with the objective of issuing two new and advanced policies. The amendments are based on the best international practices, which serve the best interests of both parties of the insurance relationship (Insurers and Insured) given the fact that the insurance policy is a contract that basically depends showing the rights, obligations, coverage and exclusions.
Recently, the IA organized a discussion session for the national and foreign insurance companies operating in the UAE. The session discussed draft amendments to the two motor insurance policies and representatives attended it from the Emirates Insurance Association, managers of companies, and specialists involved in the sector.
The unified motor insurance policy against loss, damage, and liability consists of two chapters. The first chapter is related to loss and damage and in this case, the insurance company indemnifies the insured against loss and damage of the insured vehicle along with its accessories and spare parts when they are attached to the vehicle. This includes many cases arising from loss or damage such as crash, rollover, accident, emergency mechanical failure, or wear of parts because of consumption. Further, loss or damage may arise from fire, external explosion, spontaneous combusting, robbery, theft, willful act from a third party, or in the course of land or maritime transport.
The policy includes some cases, which are excluded from the loss and damage provisions where the company is not liable to pay any compensation for indirect loss sustained by the insured or the failure, defect, or crushing of the mechanical or electric devices. Exclusions include the damage arising from overload or the overload of passengers, provided that overload in both cases is the cause of accident. Exclusions also include damage occurring to the tires or the vehicles arising from the accidents caused by use in purposes other than the specified ones.
Exclusions include the damage occurring to the vehicles due to accidents that take place during the driving of the vehicle by an unlicensed driver or if the license granted was suspended by the decision of competent authorities. Exclusions also include the loss or damage arising from the accidents that take place during driving of the vehicle under the influence of psychotropic drugs.
Chapter 2 is related to the liability policy. In case of an accident arising from the use of the insured vehicle, the company is liable to indemnify the insured, within the limits of its liability stated in the policy, for all the amounts legally due on the insured as compensation for the death or any physical injury sustained by any individual, including the vehicle passengers, as well as the damage to items and property under specific exclusions. Moreover, the policy includes general exclusions that are not covered by this type of insurance.
The two unified motor insurance policies issued in 1987 represent an important insurance issue because it is related to the day-to-day activity of the insurance companies. The motor insurance issue occupies a major space of the business of insurance companies and the activity of the insurance market in general.
The motor insurance premiums increased during the past years, recording a growth rate of (30.7) percent between 2010 and 2014. In 2014, motor insurance premiums solely grew by (16.7) percent, with a reported estimated value of (5.6) billion Dirhams as they represent (22.6) percent of the general insurance premiums. The share of national insurance companies in such premiums amounted to nearly (70) percent while the share of foreign companies amounted to nearly (30) percent.

Paul Lashmar is a Journalist who has covered many of the major stories of the last 30 years. He is now freelance, working for many organisations and also as a TV Producer, film and programme consultant, author and journalism trainer.
Now an Investigative Journalist, Paul started a Broad Media course in 1978, he was a researcher for the Observer, but said he didn't enter the journalistic role in a modern way.
As a 23 year old graduate, Paul joined The Observer newspaper in June 1978. Since then he has become an investigative journalist. Paul also has broadcast experience and for three years he was apart of Granada's: 'World in Action'. Also producing a number of programmes for BBC's Timewatch and Channel 4's Dispatches series. Paul has become the author of three books.
He and a friend, David Lee started working together as a team. David was assigned to work with Paul and did so for eight years. They were awarded for their fantastic reports. Lashmar said "we were always getting our hands dirty with major news stories, then these were backed up by an editor".
After the eight years of working together, they both went onto working for television companies in London. Lashmar went to Brazil to have an interview with a criminal in a Brazilian prison. The man was committed with killing 70 people. It was a documentary about people in Brazil who killed small children because they were a nusence to the community. This involved slaughtering them.
Lashmar specialises in areas that include terrorism, intelligence, organised crime, offshore crime, business fraud and the Cold War. As well as being a freelance journalist, Paul is a part-time journalist lecturer at two universities, which are Southampton University and University College Falmouth.
Lashmar mentioned he usually only works on two documentarys a year, this may be on the radio or for a television production.
He also mentioned that after 30 years of dealing with deadlines he is still finding himself doing that.
Paul turned free-lance when he and his family moved to Dorset, he is a consultant on crime programmes.

"Expanding area with many development to look forward too"
There are many new developments, such as apartments, shopping center, police station, library, fire station, in the near future that will attract more traffic. A plan need to be in place to expand the road. Landscapes and trees need to be added to make the street more attracted. Currently it looks more like a highway than a residential area.

What is the meaning of this phrase?
I'm all the wiser for the many wrongs I've done.
This is from Armin Van Buuren's Take A Moment song.
Wise - having or showing experience, knowledge, and good judgment.
Wiser - adjective.
Particularly, I'm confused with the form I'm all the wiser — I've never heard someone saying I'm all the [something].


text: Media and the world of espionage We look at how the Russian spy scandal made for very different headlines around the world. 29 Aug 2010 16:28 GMT | Arts & Culture, US & Canada, Latin America, Mexico, Portugal On The Listening Post this week: We use the Russian spy scandal in the US to look at how the media can get sucked into the murky world of espionage and we take a closer look at the media landscape in Macau, 10 years after decolonisation. When 10 alleged Russian spies were arrested in the US it made front pages around the world. Like most international stories, how those headlines read in the various countries involved, was a story in itself. In the US, news agencies went back to Cold War templates to tell the story. But in the scramble to file those reports, many journalists neglected to ask some of the fundamental questions relating to the source and timing of this story. Those questions were tackled however, in the Russian media but some of the theoretical motivations given, exposed flaws in their reporting as well.Our News Divide goes beyond the spoon-fed narrative, the political conspiracies and domestic perspectives to look at the bigger picture and how intelligence agencies are still managing to manipulate the media. In our Newsbytes this week: The Pentagon issues new rules that will help them control their military's interaction with the media; the Pakistani government proposes a new media law aimed at stopping terrorists being given airtime, but critics fear that it could be used to silence the press; journalists covering the elections in Somaliland get caught up in the violence there and the death toll for journalists in Mexico continues to rise with two more murders. It has been more than 10 years since Portugal transferred sovereignty of Macau, the last colony in their overseas empire, back to the Chinese. Many there were sceptical about what the transition meant for the region. Freedom of expression has not flourished on the mainland and there was a fear that those controls would be imposed on the media in Macau. On the surface, however, all seems well. There are still laws that guarantee a free press and the Chinese authorities do not appear to be directly influencing editorial policies. However, as our reporter Simon Ostrovsky discovered, there is more to the media landscape in Macau than meets the eye. Finally, we feature a rap music video as our Internet Video of the Week. In it, the artists wax lyrical about their daily trials and tribulations. You are probably thinking money, guns and gangsters but it its more like mini-vans, pay cheques and play dates. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did. This episode of The Listening Post aired from Friday, July 9, 2010.Source: Al Jazeera

The Gundremmingen nuclear power plant located 120 km northwest of Munich, Germany has been infected with computer viruses and malware.
The station's operator said that the viruses appear not to have posed a threat to facility operations since it is isolated from the internet. RWE, the German utility that runs the plant, said the viruses include "W32.Ramnit" and "Conficker". The viruses were discovered in the B unit of Gundremmingen in a computer system retrofitted in 2008 with data visualisation software used with equipment for moving nuclear fuel rods.
The W32.Ramnit worm spreads through removable drives and can steal login credentials. According to Symantec, "The worm also functions as a back door allowing a remote attacker to access the compromised computer."
Conficker has infected millions of Windows computers around the world since 2008.
Malware was also found on 18 removable data drives, mostly in USB sticks and office computers that were separate from the plant's operating systems. Cyber-security measures were increased following the discovery.
RWE informed Germany's Federal Office for Information Security (BSI), which is now working with IT specialists at the group to look into the incident.
"In Gundremmingen nuclear power plant, so-called office-malware has been found under revision preparatory testing work in Block B," said a statement released by the plant. "The incident has been classified in accordance with the German reporting criteria into the N (Normal) category. After the international scale for assessment of events (INES) is assigned to Level 0 (below the scale, zero or very low safety significance). A hazard to personnel, the environment or the system was not involved."

Gartner Predicts 2015: Weak Mobile Customer Service Is Harming Customer Engagement
Published January 4, 2015
Last modified January 4, 2015
We know that customer engagement is at the forefront of conversation in the customer service space, and in 2015 industry leaders will continue to be challenged to innovate and engage customers across all support channels. In fact, today's contact centers are tomorrow's engagement centers.
A recent report by Gartner states, "No rallying principle in the enterprise matters more than the creation of superior customer engagement. IT leaders will need to innovate in engaging customers on all channels and have the metrics to choose the right projects."
Yet how can leaders in customer service continue to innovate, or choose the right projects?
Access your complimentary copy of the Gartner Predicts 2015: Weak Mobile Customer Service Is Harming Customer Engagement report to read Gartner's analysis and recommendations, based on the following strategic planning assumptions:
- "By 2018, 5% of customer service cases will be initiated by Internet-connected devices, up from 0.02% in 2014."
- "Over 100 of the 500 largest global businesses will introduce video-based chat by 2018 for customer-facing interactions."
- "By 2017, one-third of all customer service interactions will still require the support of a human intermediary."
- "By 2018, 75% of social-only customer service agents will be blended into the customer service agent pool."
- "By 2018, 50% of agent interactions will be influenced by real-time analytics."

Topic: What have I done...
Posted: 20/November/2018 at 12:17pm
Hi Everyone!
It's been over approximately ten years since the end of my last study date. I had received a provincial and federal student loan during my studies. Over the years I suffered set backs and was not able to consistently commit to paying the sum back. I never made a single payment....
At one point during this period I called the national office about my federal portion to inquire about it going to collections as I started to receive letters. I realized my loan had defaulted at that point. I believe that was around four years ago.... I still didn't make any payments.
Now I'm trying to get back on my feet so I went to a lawyer who can write a lump sum proposal for this debt, they said that I need to contact them find out my current totals and get other paperwork together.
I did contact the provincial to find out that my loan was forgiven and Would not have to pay anything back. I realize there are consequences to this but it's done nothing I can do about it!
I then call the federal offices and find out that that loan is "not in active collections, but still owing" still acquiring interest daily... and essentially just sitting there forever.
I'm wondering if when I called four years ago, and now for the matter did I just restart this whole thing to never be deleted? I'm fine with the consequences of having it written off as that's already happened anyway with my provincial loan I don't understand why it didn't happen to my federal portion.
If I wait six years will the federal loan be forgiven? Is calling hem preventing this from happening? I feel like such an idiot if so.
Should I just go forward with a consumer proposal? Apparently this loan I have with the federal does qualify for that according to the agent I spoke with. The federal amount is around 12,000
Please help me I have an appointment with the lawyer soon and I'm not rich by any means just trying to figure out how to get out out of this mess considering I basically wasted my time at school, accomplish nothing there, and went on my merry way to owe a substantial amount of debt.

If it is in active recovery then it is a problem. If it is statute barred then it is really not a problem. It is essentially dead in that case. The government doesn't offer forgiveness to borrowers whereas student loans are legally unrecoverable and barred. If you acknowledge them then the government will reactivate. It's pretty simple. This leads me to the next part of this - bankruptcy (Consumer Proposal). A bankruptcy proceeding of any kind is described as an acknowledgment (admission of liability) in the law that applies to limitations. So, once you proceed with bankruptcy)and you have a federal student loan (or any one really) that is asleep in the statute barred bunk, the bankruptcy proceeding of any sort will bring it out.
If you want to make an offer to settle the student loan then I suggest you do so very carefully. If you want cost-effective help doing this I or someone in my group can help - and also see to it that it does not disrupt, but that is a call you will have to make.
If you have a good case for it then it will be a much simpler process.

Thank you for your insight.
I think that I should just move forward and get this debt paid. I've been lucky in some ways with having the provincial portion forgiven....
I understand that offering a consumer proposal is acknowledging this debt and thus reactivating it's dormant status... but given I plan to pay this off I think that's alright.
My concern now, is what will happen if they don't accept my proposal? I plan on offering a lump sum. Do you think I have a good chance? I don't earn a lot of money and am definitely in the lowest tax bracket, so given that, I don't think they could get much out of me if they did not accept this proposal.

What is L.E.E.D. Certification?
Posted by: raindrop 7 years, 9 months ago
Have you heard the term, "LEED certified," but never really knew exactly what it meant?
Something to do with bettering the environment, or going "green"? Is it another marketing tool to help sell a home? Fortunately, we did some research on our own, and are here to help clarify what exactly a LEED certification entails. L.E.E.D. stands for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, which was established in 1998 by the U.S. Green Building Council. LEED certifications help to standardize a criteria for how "green" new constructions and gut renovations are. You can think of LEED as a checklist, in that it sets targets and tracks progress during the design and construction of a green home. You can also think of LEED as a scorecard that gives a clear, concise picture of all the ways a green home performs. It is difficult to meet LEED's requirements, as LEED is considered the most rigorous of all the available home programs, and every home is inspected and tested to ensure that these requirements are met. Higher-scoring homes within the LEED rating system earn higher certification levels (Silver, Gold, Platinum).
There are different categories of certifications from schools, retail buildings and commercial interiors, to private homes. LEED criteria is incorporated into every aspect of the construction, from the pre-planning, all the way through to planting the last tree in the landscaping. Instead of focusing on just one area, LEED homes are green in every way including; energy, water, indoor air quality, types of materials used, thoughtful land use and landscaping, and educating homeowners on the home's green features. When construction on your home is complete, your builder will fill out a LEED checklist. There are 129 available points in the LEED for Homes category, and the requirements are weighted. Using renewable energy like wind or solar power, for example, can get you 10 points, while installing exhaust fans in your bathroom is good for one point. A LEED-certified inspector will then award a level of certification.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
- Certified (45-95 points)
- Silver (60-74 points)
- Gold (75-89 points)
Points can be added or subtracted from this total based on the square footage of your home. Check out the chart in the LEED for Homes Program Pilot Rating System manual for more information.
- Platinum (90-128 points)

Thanks for visiting the page and checking out the new face lift. It was an experiment I did on Fiverr. They have some really good things on there and this was just one of the perks. With the internet there is literally always room to learn just a little more everyday. I can remember my principal telling me to my face in 1st grade to "learn something new everyday". Then I heard my dad say it; so there must have been some truth to it. It's not that I loved school and all of it's standards of learning, but I did love learning. That's why I could never go back to school or Barnes and Noble. Simply, because I will go broke! So before I go to bed I am always surfing the web on my iphone until I temporarily lose consciousness. Hey, some people read and some people surf the net. It all counts as reading, right?
Today was a little different. I came home from work, met my wife at the grocery, put gas in the car, and got home. So when I got home, I decided to take a breather and listen to some old school hip hop songs that I haven't heard since high school. In case you're wondering it was the 90's. The last great decade; especially for hip hop. You know Nas, Biggie, Pac, Cube, Jay-Z, Pharcyde, Digable Planets, Tribe Called Quest, and Leaders of the New School. Okay enough of my frustration with today's music and back to the point. The music I listened to was so rich in lyrical content and beats that I just had to do some type of workout. But, not before I gave my boys their haircuts. I've been cutting hair the last decade and I refuse to pay for a barber to do it with the prices that they charge today.
So then, I'm looking at 7:30pm already. What an evening and I was just getting started. But the energy was great and there was no way that I was going to be stopped. Workout. Check. Haircuts. Check. Wow. 8:30 already?!!! This is the time that I usually let myself go and let the television make background noise just for comfort. Sad, but true. For some reason today, things just took a different turn.
My thoughts on no television
1. I got a heck of a lot done
2. There was a lot of mail that I needed to pay attention to!
3. Squeezing in an intense 20 minute workout was not as big an issue as most nights
4. There was no time to be stagnant. Without being frozen by the set I realized that I really never have enough time to watch television
5. I almost feel like I need another job! Seriously, there is way more time in a day than you could ever imagine. Just cut out the crap and you'll see.
Now it's almost 10:00 and I am exhausted. Busy in a good way could pose a real great outlook on life the following day. Instead of looking forward to the weekend, I'm looking forward to the new that's upon us! As I get older I want the time to slow down so that I can savor the gift of time that I have been given.
God Bless and I look forward to your comments.

Welcome to Karen's Killer Book Bench where, every Wednesday, readers can discover talented new authors and take a peek inside their wonderful books. This is not an age-filtered site so all book peeks are PG-13 or better. Come back and visit often. Happy reading!
Back Cover Burb….
Searching for answers, Joe meets with Angie, an old friend who can talk to spirits, and she tells him of a new threat. Joe and Angie track down Crowley to a mysterious estate in New Orleans, where everything is not as it seems. As Joe digs deeper, Crowley has one more final trick up his sleeve, resurrecting his bloodline for one final battle with Joe.
Joe will throw down the gauntlet, and prepare to make the ultimate choice. Kill the man responsible for Lincoln's coma, or capture the spirit responsible for their best friend's death. Either way, justice will be served.
The Ferrymen by Jason Gehlert
[Special Note: Although this scene fits within Karen's Killer Book Bench PG-13 rating, please be aware you're about to peek into a zombie novel and it may be more graphic than some readers can accept. I did censor the F-word (the only non-PG-13 profanity) used in this excerpt to accommodate any younger readers. Thanks!]
The cemetery…
The cold rain pounded against the tombstone's, dripping down the aging marble. A few drops splattered across Joe's face, forcing an insignificant twitch of his right eyelid.
The residents of the cemetery surrounded the fallen officer, hungry for their meal. A few inched closer, inspecting the bloodied face with curious looks, as the red rainwater rolled off Joe's face.
Joe felt his heart kick start, yet no feeling returned to his limbs. Unaware of his location, Joe's experiences taught him to remain calm, patient, and digest as much information as possible. He pieced together a potential area: outdoors, rain, mud, and soft earth. Joe's inability to open his eyes, forced his brain to ignite any of the other senses, hoping they would recover in time.
The residents stretched out their hands, grabbing at Joe's legs, pulling, tearing at his slacks with curled, shattered fingernails.
Joe could feel something clawing at his legs, tearing away the fabric, and scraping against his skin. A pain so rough and chaotic, Joe's emotions escalated, his voice in argument with his brain to get everything moving once again.
A hard breath pounded against his ears, leaving behind a sticky residue inside Joe's eardrum.
One by one, Joe felt his fingers returning to full power, nudging a hard metallic substance across the wet ground, with his left index and middle finger. He knew exactly what it was: the Glock.
Joe raised the Glock without a moment's hesitation. His eyes slow to reopen, the stampede of growls consumed the dark cemetery, shattering Joe's concentration.
A blurred image appeared before him, a grotesque cadaver besieged by death and years from burial. The creature clamped down on the end of the Glock, furious to chew on its intended prey. Joe's vision, still marred from the toxic drug, delivered the horrifying image before him. A quickened flick of his index finger, obliterated the creature's lower mandible, jarring the attacker backwards. A wave of blackened blood sprayed Joe, the tombstone to his right, and the base of Lancaster's statue.
"Holy Shit," Joe muttered, watching the rest of the cemetery's tenants rushing the wounded creature. Joe's attacker, a man, barely approaching what looked like to be middle age, scurried across the ground, clutching his dangling jaw in his right hand. The series of other mutated men and women, swarmed over him, pecking away at his body with their fingernails and teeth, eventually tearing clear through his lemon colored skin. A stream of black blood spurted, saturating the hungry entities, staining their disjointed, carnivorous teeth.
"Ah, Mr. Cole, would you look at that?" Jonas quietly stoked the remains of the dying fire in the brick fireplace, while gazing out the window to the cemetery. "It looks like Buchanan will not be enjoying the rest of his stay at the estate."
"They are ripping that f*(@er to shreds," added Crowley, swirling a glass of peach colored liquor, "tear him apart!" He raised the glass.
Cole glanced out the window, briefly engaging the other men in this shameless parade of revenge. The cemetery soon filled with pockets of the mutated corpses, enjoying their meal, gnawing through their dead with frenetic delight.
Joe hid behind a smaller collection of tombstones, routinely peeking at the massacre ahead. His senses returning, Joe felt the warmness of blood emerging from several cuts and scratches he endured during his blackout period. "This is insane," he paused, the Glock lowering from his side, touching the soft ground. A series of headaches rocked Joe to the core, stirring his brain in a frenzy.
A small woman, roughly a foot shy of five feet, shuffled her eroding feet, covered in decades old mud, crawling with insects and beetles, across the cemetery. The woman wisely used the small collection of bare trees for seclusion. A bony figure with torn skin and petite eyes sunken deep in their sockets, the woman's physique bordered on frail. Her brittle, stringy hair, dangled above her uneven shoulders, a sign of the woman favoring one side of her body when she walked. A series of small bones cracked through the thin layer of skin on her legs, bleeding black down her calves. A pocket full of rotted teeth displayed their savvy clacking for gnawing on fresh skin.
The woman shuffled closer to the immobile man behind the tombstone, her shadow growing under the full moon's ivory breast.
Joe felt something awry, turning, startled by a crunching twig in the background.
His fingers retrieved the Glock once more, and readied for the defensive.
Nothing. Blackness enveloped a series of skinny trees.
A quick glance to the left, showed nothing more than the quirky calmness of the cemetery.
Then Joe felt it. A hurricane of a hit, out of nowhere. The brutal force knocked him clear on his back, scattering the Glock from his possession. Her face, scowling with an insatiable appetite for human flesh, penetrated his psyche.
Joe threw up his arms, catching the screeching woman in her frantic attempts to devour his skin. A steady stream of sizzling salvia dripped from her mouth, burning red blotches on Joe's skin.
His Glock still unreachable, Joe sucked in deep breath, his fingers grabbed hold her hair, hoping to jerk her to the side. His hands culled countless patches of hair from her head, rendering his intended plan useless.
The woman screeched once more, and buried her chattering, jagged teeth against Joe's upper shoulder, sending a shuddering howl from his trembling lips. Her rogue attacks pierced through his shirt, and uncovered the first layer of skin, bleeding the fresh wound. Her lips soaked in Joe's cherry red blood, the woman went for the brutal kill: the jugular.
Joe, muffled his screams, sending a hard knee to the woman's groin, stifling her attack. Her mouth, slightly ajar, crunched down on Joe's fingers as he grabbed hold of her lower jaw and ripped her head sideways.
"I don't like biters," he growled.
The woman recovered, and baited Joe for another attack, while she crouched on all fours, mimicking a hungry animal. She launched through the air, but this time Joe was ready for her, and grabbed her from underneath and threw the woman against a nearby tombstone. Dazed, the woman rolled over and prepared for another stubborn attack.
Joe, still unable to locate his Glock, refused to accept defeat, and reached down and grabbed the woman by the shoulders. Joe's mind twisted layer by layer, shoving the officer further down a dark road. Joe's forehead erupted in sweat, his heart raced, his veins pumped with blood, now was the time to act.
A sudden discharge of adrenaline, Joe continually rammed the disturbed woman against the bottom of the tombstone, with escalating force, until the screeching ceased, and left the gray marble tombstone saturated in her black blood.
Collapsing, Joe's mind again fluctuated between violence and guilt, leaving him hamstrung for a concrete answer to what the hell was going on.

Is This Your Year? The Time Is Now For Prepping To Sell!
By John Voket
If 2017 is the year you put your home on the market, there are a few important things you can start doing right now to be ready when spring and summer home-buying season hits.
One Upper Michigan REALTOR(r)'s blog suggests restless pending home listers host a pre-market open house. Invite friends, family and three full time real estate agents to a weekend get-to-know-your-home gathering.
The blog says it will help get the word out that you'll be selling come spring. Don't forget to ask for feedback from guests and be ready for what you'll hear - good and bad.
Now is the time to start a to-do list of repairs, updates and streamlining with a timeline to complete before your home goes on market, the blog states. Also gather references for contractors if you need to hire work done - mid-winter months are typically slow for building trades and a good time to schedule repairs.
Don't forget the basement - dark, dirty and musty basements are a turnoff to buyers:
· Add extra lighting, paint the floor and vacuum out all the cobwebs.
· Organize storage areas and take the time to clean the washing machine and dryer.
· To spruce up the hot water heater and furnace, wipe down with a strong cleaner.
· Scrub the laundry tub and sweep left-over leaves out of exterior stairs and window wells.
· Run a dehumidifier to reduce basement moisture.
Dawn Jamison at QuickenLoans.com says another REALTOR(r) in Exton, Pa. says winter house hunters should keep their search going regardless of the weather because a home that meets their ideal criteria and at the right price can pop up on the market at any time.
Another Detroit REALTOR(r) told Jamison that said if a buyer can locate a home that meets their needs, then being a winter buyer is not a hindrance. And because of typical mid-winter lack of inventory, he advises buyers to be certain their financing is figured out ahead of time so that they can submit competitive offers quickly when an appropriate home hits the listings.

The Republic of Kazantip Festival is two weeks of non-stop music, discos, fun, love, freedom and relaxation in the sun at descent beaches of Crimea, right on the Black Sea in the Ukraine.
The best party for beauties, DJs, sports addicts and crazy party animals in the hippest location – so they say.
Every year thousands of young people come together to party by day and by night. The festival is also well known for the sporting facilities and you could find yourself dancing in paint one minute and freefall skydiving the next.
Although a lot is said about Kazantip Festival, there are 5 things you might not know about it:
1. The yellow suitcase
If you are going to visit this very unusual festival of electronic and house music, be ready to pay $260 for the ticket. Yet, anyone can get free admission to the festival. All you need to do is to register on the official website of the Kazantip Republic and take a quiz of several simple questions. Then, you must bring a yellow suitcase with you, and carry it with you throughout your stay at Kazantip. The thing is that a yellow suitcase is considered to be the main symbol of the festival. It comes from an old Russian children's movie about a doctor who made children happy by giving them candies from his yellow suitcase. The idea behind is that when you make people happy in the Republic, this makes you feel happy too.
2. New year party
In order to entertain the public, a big number of various parties are organized during the festival. Normally the parties and lineup are announced in advance, but without giving too much details, which helps to maintain the interest in the coming events. One of the main traditions is a celebration of the New Year that always happens on 31 July. In fact, the New Year party opens Kazantip. The participants get dressed in funny costumes, many have their faces painted. The traditional countdown to midnight is followed by a spectacular fireworks display and rivers of champagne flow.
3. Freak parade
This parade is another traditional show that is always organized during the Kazantip. It features thousands of young people dressed up in orange outfits as well as in weird, funny and crazy clothes. So, if you are planning to visit the next festival, make sure to bring your most creative costume with you!
4. ViZas for the "Republic of Kazantip"
As you may know, the Kazantip ticket is called "viZa" and it has nothing to do with a visa to enter the country. Actually this is a pass to the festival that looks like a plastic card. You must wear it around your neck throughout your stay at Kazantip. To get your viZa, first you need to apply online on the official site of the Republic of Kazantip, fill out a simple form and upload a recent photo of yourself. Once your application is approved, you will receive a notification sent my e-mail. When you arrive in Popovka, you need to stop by the ViZa Department to pick up your pass to Kazantip. Check out thecrimea.org.ua for further instructions.
5. Passes of different colors
There are three colorsofviZas: red, green and white. Most guests have red viZasbut you can also meet girls with green or white passes. The green ones are given to the girls who are hired to promote parties and various events during Kazantip Festival, while the holders of the white passes are the most beautiful girls, true models who escort VIP guests of Kazantip.
