Commercial property management does not count maintenance alone; it is the art of generating business too. It is a whole new concept, one that is different from years ago. A few aspects have to be kept in mind that a building must offer to meet the requirements of the renters. Management of property is not a piece of cake. A timely check on roofing, landscaping and parking areas is very essential. Also, having a management plan as to which strategy should be followed, what you look forward to achieve, what is the holding period that you are considering and what is the optimal value you are looking for.
Certain software to keep track of leases and rents:
It is property management software that helps in storing all the details in regards with tenants and rents. It creates a source for collection of payments, tracking of expenses, preparation of work orders and also credit checking. Further, it lets you have a track on issues and vacancies. This platform offers a few options to choose from, wherein the basic plan is not chargeable. The basic plan provides the same modules as the paid one.
Cozy is software, simple to use and organized in its form. Vacancies are dealt with ease. This platform makes marketing requirements to go with the flow of market trends i.e. to say an overview of forthcoming rentals.
The headache of the landlord receiving the rent from the renters is taken away as each one of them receives an email.
Rentec Direct, just like other above mentioned software provides a platform for the property manager and renters to meet. It performs the function of general ledger accounting, financial reporting, utility billing integration, etc. The software is mobile user friendly and supports systems such as Windows and Mac.
Why a third party background check is necessary?
A background check company helps in assessing the risk for reputation management. A landlord, who is concerned, will be in search of a tenant who is going to add prestige to his unit and that is by bringing in a tenant doing the right business for the surrounding tenants and community.
A third party background check for the applications submitted for lease is essential. Tenants tend to provide false job history and false addresses thinking that the application will get through just by a single glance. Furthermore, protecting your property and other tenants from wrong doers such as drug dealers and sexual predators is necessary.
Remember, the results that will be yielded will depend on efforts you put forth in designing your property management plan so use the right tools.

Hey all,
LEGO announced this upcoming set, Detention Block Rescue:
And it's a pretty awesome set. Notice, for instance, that the white striped Death-Star wall pattern isn't stickers, as you might expect, but rather fully brick-built. Years ago I argued that LEGO should make exactly this type of set - or rather I argued for a series of similar sets - rather than make some huge behemoth $300 Death Star set. Imagine a series of small sets, each featuring one or two key figs - Luke meeting Leia, the droids in the control room, Obi-Wan fighting Vader, Han and Chewie in the trash compactor, maybe a Stormie in each set. They would have sold tons of these - particularly back in the day when Stormies were pretty rare, and Leia could only be found in the Millennium Falcon set (yes, I'm old, I'm talking 15 years ago). Anyway, they finally come out with something like this, and it's an exclusive for a few people who win a raffle for the chance to buy it at one convention. Grrrr.
BTW, speaking of LEGO Death Star, did you see it in the Spider-Man Homecoming trailer?

Popupsters is an online marketplace which is devoted to helping local vendors, businesses and aspiring entrepreneurs. By creating a profile, users can search for events and find a space to PopUp and grow their own business.
We caught up with PopUpsters founder and CEO Aaron Lander to find out more about this business startup. As one of many businesses to have incorporated in 2014, we asked Aaron what makes PopUpsters so unique. "We are a Public Benefit Corporation with a social mission to help strengthen local communities and economies" Aaron explained. Aaron described that this is facilitated by "fostering small business incubation within our neighborhoods and communities".
What's more, Aaron told us that "PopUpsters looks to empower those who are disproportionately disadvantaged." Such groups include women, low-income, veterans, disabled, LGTB and other minority groups. Therefore, one of the greatest reasons that makes PopUpsters so unique, is that it creates the opportunity for employment and adds money to local economies without compromising community cultures.
The Inspiration for PopUpsters
With all this in mind, PopUpsters sounds like a fantastic business, so we wanted to find out more about the idea behind it and how this business came to exist. "I was taking a course on sustainable communities for grad school and realized that PopUp economy has no structure or formality" Aaron revealed. This paired with the fact that his friends had some great skills and practical crafts meant that Aaron spotted those who would benefit from finding places to PopUp. With this realization, only four months passed before PopUpsters was launched.
The Toughest Challenge of Starting a Business
In today's culture, social media is an integral tool for almost all business, so we wanted to know what kind of role social media plays for PopUpsters. Despite highlighting particular vendors during PopUps, Aaron explained that both Twitter and Facebook are used as fantastic lead generation tools as well as offering potential for building strategic partnerships.
Obviously building a humanitarian business is an admirable venture, so we asked Aaron about the toughest part of starting this business; "the unknown is the hardest thing to deal with, but it gives you opportunity to create your own path for the company". Perhaps reassuringly, this unknown is exactly the leap-of-faith stuff that all new businesses face.
Aaron added that, "not knowing when you are going to get paid, if you will succeed, if you will have the intended impact [or] if you will make the right decisions" can be some of the most difficult parts of running your own business. Arguably, it's exactly these points that distinguish the average mind from the entrepreneur; whilst many may share these concerns, only the entrepreneurs among us will actually start or continue to run their business in the face of this "unknown".
Having seen the difficulties which can arise from starting a business, we wanted to find out if Aaron had made any mistakes since starting PopUpsters. "Oh yeah, everyone makes mistakes" Aaron reminded us, "but every time I do [make mistakes] I learn from them." Crucially, often it's not the actual mistakes which matter but as Aaron eloquently informed us, "There's always mistakes that are made, you just have to get up, dust off your shoulder and go at it again."
The Best Moment for PopUpsters…So Far
Finally, we wanted to know about the most satisfying moment since Aaron founded PopUpsters. Naturally, Aaron's response had a lot to do with the vendors that PopUpster supports, Aaron explained that the most satisfying moment is "whenever a vendor comes up to me and thanks me for what we are doing for their business." It turns out, that the driving force behind why Aaron intends to turn PopUpsters into a huge company, is listening to the stories from the vendors who have already benefited from his company.
We wish Aaron and the team at PopUpsters all the best and look forward to seeing what the future has in store for them. If Aaron's plans go smoothly, we'll soon be seeing PopUpsters "making an impact across the world". Good Luck Popupsters!

Located in the region of West Papua, Raja Ampat is renowned as the world's most biodiverse region. Over the years it has become one of the world's most demanded dive destinations with several dive spots among the top ten's bests in Misool & Dampier strait. Wayag is another iconic highlight of some of our itineraries in Raja Ampat.
An Awesome destination that is often considered second best after Raja Ampat. The truth is we can't really decide which one is better between Raja Ampat and Komodo. What we do know is they are both undeniably amazing and should be equally appreciated
Unique marine diversity, land explorations, spice plantations, deserted beaches, caves and stunning scenery for an unforgettable journey.
Beneath the sea, Banda Islands are very attractive for their pelagic - often in schools - like hammerhead sharks, giant trevallies, dogtooth tunas, dolphins & whales.
Visibility is excellent there and can reach 50 meters.
This is the perfect destination to fully enjoy East Indonesia's finest marine biodiversity. The beauty of its amazing soft corals that stick out to the surface is definitely one of the major marine attractions in Triton Bay. There are over 959 different kinds of coral fish and 471 known types of coral in this area. The other highlights include black coral forests, overflowing schools of sweetlips, vibrant macro lives, and a good chance to encounter whale sharks on bagan - fishing platforms - where these giants come to suck the large fishermen nets to swallow hundreds of fishes.
This off the beaten track destination is a gem. Located in the center of the Coral triangle, right on the equator with one of the lowest density of population of Indonesia, Halmahera archipelago has everything a nature lover is expecting...and even more. As far as diving and snorkeling are concerned, Halmahera has all types of diving: wrecks, muck dives, pelagic, drift dives, walls, and everywhere those so colorful corals surrounded by schools of small and big fish.
This destination is famous worldwide for its unbelievable critters. The top muck dives in the world for sure, but not only. Wallacea has been exploring Lembeh strait, the Togian Islands but also the north part of this huge island since its very operation beginning. We offer two itineraries on this destination.
Departing From Bitung, the "central Sulawesi" visits the East coast of Sulawesi and the Togian islands. It ends in Luwuk. Beautiful dive sites of the East coast in the areas of Ratatotok, Tanjung Flesko, Gorontalo, Togian Islands to end in the diving part in Pulau Dua area.
A beautiful diving zone Jacques Cousteau defined as an underwater Nirvana. Macro is extremely well represented but not only. Walls, cliffs, ridges, dries, pinnacles... incredible seascapes, pristine beaches, hundreds of species of corals and fishes. Wakatobi gets it all...

Below is a piece by Israel's Channel 2 evening broadcast of December 27. It shows two other stories of Haredi immorality against two different families, both of them non-Haredi religious. The stories are shocking.
I received some good feedback about the Israeli news clip that I linked to. Then I saw this and wanted to post it but could not find a translated version. So I have become an iMovie user and captioned this piece.
I tried to put the captions at the bottom, but that doesn't seem to be an iMovie option for longer caps. If anyone knows a way around this, please contact me.
More examples of how these thuggish extremist Haredim treat people with different beliefs. It's what my grandparents called a "shande":

Tanned goatskin leather is used to create several different products, including work and gardening gloves. The leather is durable enough to withstand the rigors of labor-intensive projects or an afternoon planting begonias. The goatskin is also breathable and comfortable enough to be worn for hours but strong enough to protect your hands from wear, tear and chemicals. Care for your goatskin gloves by cleaning them properly so they can continue to care for your hands as well.
Fill a sink or plastic basin with 1 gallon cold water. Add 2 tbsp. mild liquid dish soap and submerge the goatskin leather gloves.
Work the soapy water into the gloves with an unwanted toothbrush, concentrating on areas that are prone to dirt and grime buildup, including the fingertips and cuffs.
Submerge the goatskin gloves into a separate basin or sink filled with 1 gallon cool water. Work the water through the gloves with your hands to remove the soapy mixture.
Wrap the gloves in a towel and gently squeeze to remove the excess water.
Examine the goatskin gloves for remaining dirt or grime. Cover the difficult stains with a dollop of pumice-based hand cleanser. Work the cleanser into the stains with your fingers and rinse it away with cool water.
Hang the gloves outdoors to dry completely. Cover the gloves with a layer of leather protectant according to the package directions to keep the goatskin supple.

Governor Cuomo Encourages New Yorkers to Celebrate Women's History Month
Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today encouraged residents and visitors alike to learn about New York womens contributions to history, culture and society and celebrate in Womens History Month. Through the Governors Path Through History initiative, New Yorkers can explore womens heritage sites and key events like the nations first womens rights convention that took place in 1848 in Seneca Falls or the First Lady of the World Eleanor Roosevelts home in Hyde Park.
New York State has been inspired by the great contributions of New York women for over two centuries, said Governor Cuomo. The Path Through History gets visitors started on a journey back in time to discover and celebrate the diverse people whose accomplishments made our state great. I encourage all New Yorkers to learn more about these extraordinary women who helped transform our culture and society.
Womens Rights is one of 13 themes used to organize 500-plus heritage sites across the state through the Path Through History initiative. Those looking to celebrate Womens History Month in March can learn about the important role women played in the womens suffrage and civil rights movement, but also about New York women in various fields from education to entertainment at museums and historic sites around the state. Visitors can locate sites by looking for the Path Through History marker on major state highways as well as additional local signage. In addition, the Path Through History web pagewww.paththroughhistory.ny.gov provides a list of sites.
New York led the way in establishing womens rights and that long journey can be traced and recounted by visiting historical sites and museums all across the state, said Senator Betty Little, chair of the Senate Cultural Affairs, Tourism, Parks and Recreation Committee. Path Through History encourages an interactive approach to learning about our past and developing a deeper understanding of the dedication of those who came before us and fought so hard. Its enriching tourism and something I hope many people take advantage of this month.
Assemblywoman Margaret Markey, Chair of the Assembly Tourism, Parks, Arts and Sports Development Committee, said, New York women had a vital role in the nationwide suffrage movement that led to the adoption of the 19th Amendment. They still provide the same inspiration and determination as the struggle for equal rights for women continues in our times. All New Yorkers should take pride in the Path Through History program that spotlights important sites that reflect the spirit of these pioneering women.
Governor Cuomos Path Through History initiative was created to connect historically and culturally significant locations throughout the state to attract visitors and boost the economy, said Empire State Development Division of Tourism Executive Director Gavin Landry. The hundreds of Path Through History sites identify historical assets and provide a platform to recognize and honor both the struggles and achievements of great New York women in our nations history.
Several of the key Womens Rights sites along the Path Through History are highlighted below, as well as other locales honoring the contributions of women.
The life of a Pioneer Woman. The Adirondack Museum (Blue Mountain Lake), one of the largest museums in upstate New York, is closed until May, but its online exhibit Womens Work in the Adirondacks: 1850-1920 will have you looking at the regions rugged mountains and historic homes with new appreciation. The online narrative is illustrated with photos and historic artifacts from the museum collections.
I Wish You Were a Boy. Abolitionist and womens suffrage leader Elizabeth Cady Stanton was born in Johnstown, in the Mohawk Valley Region. The Elizabeth Cady Stanton Hometown Association offers a self-guided cell-phone walking tour of Johnstown, Walk in the Footsteps of Elizabeth Cady Stanton, that can be reached by phoning 518-406-7081. The tour covers about a mile and is filled with insights and anecdotes, such as the time when her father sighed and said Oh, my daughter, I wish you were a boy. This comment, says the narrator, set Elizabeth on a course to prove that women were indeed as good as men. For information on special exhibits and events, including a display at the Bank of America on Main Street, visit The Elizabeth Cady Stanton Hometown Association.
Arts in the Park. The Saratoga National Historical Park in Schuylerville (518-664-9821 ext. 2985) is featuring a Womens History Month exhibit, The Force of FashionPrettifying the Ladies. Learn that whats practical and whats fashionable are by no means new concepts.
I Love Lucy. The Lucy Desi Center for Comedy in Jamestown honors a hometown entertainment pioneer. Born here in 1911, Lucille Ball was the first woman to head a major Hollywood studio, which produced Star Trek and other popular shows. Visitors can see re-creations of Lucy and Ricky Ricardos NYC apartment and Hollywood hotel suite, a screening area, and vintage memorabilia. You may also be surprised to learn how ground-breaking I Love Lucy was: the show was the first filmed before a live audience using three cameras, and the first to reach over ten million homes.
The Fight for Rights. The Womens Rights Movement has its roots in Seneca Falls, where Americas first womens rights convention was held. For a sense of how revolutionary the idea of womens suffrage was, visit the Womens Rights National Historic Park. A film, Dreams of Equality, and exhibits at the Visitor Center, provide an excellent orientation to the Womens Rights Movement. The Park also offers a self-guided cell phone audio tour of key sites around Seneca Falls that can be accessed by calling 315-257-9370. Other sites on the tour include Wesleyan Chapel, where the Convention was held, and two homes of civil rights leaders, MClintock House in Waterloo, (open May August), home of Thomas and Mary Ann MClintock, and Elizabeth Cady Stanton House in Seneca Falls. Also in Seneca Falls, the National Womens Hall of Fame honors women of the past and inducts new honorees every other year. Visitors can read about these women and be inspired by their stories.
The Ongoing Struggle. A third national womens rights convention, held in 1852 in Syracuse, brought another articulate leader into the movement, as visitors learn when touring the home of Matilda Joslyn Gage in Fayetteville, about 15 minutes from downtown Syracuse. Gage, along with Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, was a founding member of the National Woman Suffrage Association (NWSA) and served in various offices of the organization for twenty years (1869-1889). The museum offers an in-depth understanding of Gages life and work, and serves as a center for continuing education and discussion on current social justice issues.
Arrested for voting. In 1872, Susan B. Anthony and other women were famously arrested for voting in Rochester, but the right to vote was only part of what Anthony was fighting for. Women must have a purse of her own, she said, protesting the fact that once married, a woman could not open a bank account, rent a place to live, or enter into contracts. Visitors to the National Susan B. Anthony Museum & House in Rochester learn about the life of this legendary civil rights leader. In addition, the Learning Center is designed to keep her spirit alive by offering programs that help people to make positive differences in their lives and communities.
The Underground Railroad Stopped Here. Visitors to the region will also want to see the Harriet Tubman Home Museum in Auburn, where the famed Underground Railroad conductor, Civil War spy and promoter of black and womens rights lived. The Thompson Memorial AME Zion Church that she attended, a center for the abolitionist movement is marked by a plaque. Events are scheduled throughout the year to commemorate the centennial of Tubmans death in 1913 and can be found at www.harriethouse.org/events.htm, or phone 315-252-2081.
The Angel of the Battlefield. Known as the angel of the battlefield for her bravery in setting up and manning hospitals at the front lines of the Civil War, Clara Barton is best known for founding the American Red Cross. In Dansville, the site of the first chapter, started by Barton, is still operating. The chapter maintains a small museum that displays some of Bartons personal belongings, writings and letters. Visits are by appointment. Call 585-335-3500.
The Mother of Womens Colleges. Elmira College, founded in 1855 as Elmira Female College, claims the honor of being the worlds first college to grant a baccalaureate degree to women, equal to those granted to men. It remained a womens college until the school became co-ed in 1969. Eight of the sites buildings are on the National Register of Historic Places.
The Generals Lady. It was in the farmhouse at what is now Washingtons Headquarters State Historic Park in Newburgh that General George Washington established his headquarters from April 1782 to August 1783. While here, Martha Washington served as official hostess, managed the wartime household and helped operate their Virginia plantation. Every year, the park celebrates Womens History Month with a special program, The Generals Lady, which presents the Martha Washington Woman of History Award to a woman who demonstrates similar characteristics while contributing towards the education and preservation of history in the Hudson Valley. This years presentation will be made on April 6, 2014.
Sojourner Truth lived in slavery here. About 90 minutes north, the Hurley Heritage Society offers a self-guided walking tour of the Hurley Village Dutch Stone Houses, many of which are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. These well preserved homes, most dating to the mid-18th century and still occupied, include Hardenbergh House, where famous abolitionist and womans rights orator Sojourner Truth lived in slavery for about six years, as well as a home with slave quarters and another house that was part of the Underground Railroad.
First Lady of the World. Eleanor Roosevelt was the longest serving first lady in the United States, but her work didnt start or end with her husbands presidency. Nicknamed First Lady of the World by President Harry S. Truman in recognition of her human rights achievements, she also served as the U.S. delegate to the United Nations and helped draft and pass the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which she described as the International Magna Carta for all men everywhere. Visitors to Val-Kill, her home in Hyde Park, learn about her legacy through a short film and a guided tour. The site is open May through October from 9 am to 5 pm, Thursdays through Mondays. Guided tours are available throughout the day. November through April the site is open Thursdays through Mondays, with guided tours available at 1 p.m. and 3 p.m.
Inspiration for a Prize-Winning Poet. Visitors can draw their own inspiration while exploring Steepletop, the Victorian home and well-tended gardens where Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Edna St. Vincent Millay lived. Her Austerlitz home and grounds include a poetry trail, where poetry readings and other events are often featured. The house is open from late May to the middle of October, except for special events.
Equal Rights N.O.W. Co-founder of the National Organization for Women and womens rights activist, Betty Friedan lived in Grand View while writing her radical book, The Feminine Mystique. The book helped kick-start the modern womens movement, with its demands for equal pay and other rights. A monument to Friedan now stands in front of the Grand View Village Hall.
Honor in a Park. From Cleopatra to Marie Curie, the names of New York City parks and playgrounds read like a Whos Who of women in history. The New York City Parks Department offers borough-by-borough and themed listings as well as a searchable list of special events. Womens History Month events feature a talk, The Iroquois Influence on Womans Rights at the Wyckoff Farmhouse Museum (in Fidler-Wyckoff House Park), in Brooklyn on March 23. Admission is free.
A Pioneering Photographer. Alice Austen, a 19th century photographer and one of the first women to shoot documentary-style photographs, lived on Staten Island. Her former home, originally built in 1690 as a one-room farmhouse and renovated in the 19th century by her father into a Victorian Gothic cottage, is located at the entrance to New York Harbor. Today, visitors to Alice Austen House can tour the historic home and view works by Alice Austen and other artists. The museum is closed January and February; call 718-816-4506 x10 for more details.

A disabled man was forced to crawl on his knees out of a store in Iowa after being told by an employee he couldn't take the store-owned wheelchair into the car park.
Shane Zahn posted a video and pictures to Facebook which show him crawling out of a Mills Fleet Farm outdoor store.
He said in the post's description he wanted to make everyone aware of how the shop treats disabled customers.
"Went to Fleet Farm today to do some shopping. Paid for all my items and went to leave, was told I couldn't use the wheelchair to go to the car.
"Returned all my items and had to walk out on my hands and knees. Just trying to make people aware of how Fleet Farm treats handicapped customers," Zahn wrote.
His post has been viewed 11m times and racked up more than 118,000 shares.
Zahn told KIMT that he usually takes his manual wheelchair with him unless he knows a store – like Mills Fleet Farm – has an electric one. On the day of the incident, he said he was dropped off in front of the store and an employee met him with a cart.
The CEO of Mills Fleet Farm, a retail chain of 35 stores in Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin, and North Dakota, shared a statement on the company's Facebook page apologising for the incident.
Wayne Sales posted: "We are aware of an unfortunate incident at our Mason City, Iowa, Mills Fleet Farm store where a Mills team member wouldn't allow a disabled person to use an electric cart in our parking lot.
"While use of carts in the parking lot with the uneven terrain can pose a hazard, we feel that in this instance our team member made the wrong decision. We apologize to the customer and to everyone who may be affected."

Ok, on to the spoilers. If you don't follow me on Twitter, and really I suggest you should, you missed a couple updates from Friday. Twitter is such an easy tool for me to give people updates on filming without having to come in and write a whole new column. I like to write columns when I have a lot of info, pictures, links to do, but when I was getting information sent to me on Friday, it's just so much easier for me to tweet it out immediately, then get to a column later. So if you missed Friday's tweets, you missed the picture I had of Emily on her hometown date with Chris Bukowski in downtown Chicago near the Wrigley building:
After that, I was able to confirm that the hometown dates would be filmed as follows: Chris (Friday), Jef Holm (yesterday), Arie Luyendyk Jr (tomorrow), and Sean Lowe (Thursday). Meaning the rose ceremony going from 4 down to 3 will be held Friday in North Carolina, then they head out for the overnight dates on Saturday. Until I'm told differently, I'm saying that the overnights and final rose ceremony location have something to do with Madrid. If I hear anything differently, I will report it when I know for sure, but by all accounts of what I was told before the season, Madrid was a place they were going and they obviously haven't been there yet this season, so that leaves it as the overnights/final rose ceremony location.
I'm sure a lot of you saw the first promo of Emily's season, that was released Friday courtesy of ABC.com. DWTS will run another promo tonight, but no word on whether it will be this same promo or a new one. In case you missed it, here it is:
A few things to note from this promo:
-They showed an awful lot of her and Chris' date in Charlotte
-The guy she is kissing with the water in the background is Jef Holm
-And of course, like only ABC can do, they tease you at the end with utter ridiculousness when they show a helicopter landed at the mansion the first night, and had all the guys scurrying outside asking, "Is it Brad? Is it Bentley?" Which is about as stupid as you can get because it's neither of them. They just want you to think it could be which is why voice-over guy is saying, "In a season that'll keep you guessing from the very first night…" Really? Cuz it seems to me that by the time this first episode airs on May 14th, there will be no guessing as to anything that happens this season because I'll have spoiled it all. Regardless, no, that is not Brad or Bentley who arrived via helicopter the first night. It was Kalon McMahon, who no doubt is this season's male version of Erica Rose. Houston socialite, comes from money, and even has an alter ego he goes by which is "Cash McMogulson." No joke. Yeah, I'd say arriving in a helicopter is a rich's man's version of Lindzi showing up on a horse. Cash McMogulson. Really? Can't wait to start writing about this guy. (Correction: Kalon is NOT the Cash McMogulson that gained popularity on the internet writing about the exploits of having money and chasing women and basically trying to be the next Tucker Max. However, I do have a 10 page email written by Kalon three years ago that's in the same mold as those Cash McMogulson entries.
I have two more guys to confirm for you on Emily's season. I've known these two guys first names ever since Charlotte, but I didn't have last names or bios on them until this past weekend, so now I'm finally able to let you in on who they are.
15. Michael Nance: 26 or 27, Austin, Tx. Musician. Here are the pictures of him jogging in front of the mansion back in March, and one of his rather subpar acoustic YouTube videos. I say subpar because, even though I've never heard that song, if I'm gonna play Randy Jackson right now, "That song got away from you, dawg." Sounds like Michael runs out of breath quite a few times trying to keep up with the song. Has a website at MichaelNanceMusic.com that has nothing on it. Also, you can see more of his live performances on his YouTube music channel (Hopps12714).
16. Charles (Charlie) Grogan: Nashville, TN. Graduated Middle Tennessee State University 2007. Volunteer at Monroe Carroll Jr. Children's Hospital. Was the one who gave Emily a lap dance on the Muppets group date. If you google his name, you'll find a tons of articles written about him suffering a head and spinal injuries in October of 2010 at the home of his buddy, Atlanta Braves 2nd baseman Dan Uggla. Dude fell off a balcony 15 feet and sued the construction company who built the balcony. Plenty of links to this story, you can read one of them right here.

|Ahab helped JMB build int'l links
|Militant supremo Abdur Rahman established international links of his militant outfit Jamaatul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) with the help of Ahle Hadith Andolan, Bangladesh (Ahab) chief Asadullah al Galib, sources said. Evidence collected so far is so concrete that both Galib and Rahman must admit their links with two foreign militant trainers, Khaled and Javed, a reliable source told The Daily Star without elaborating. The trainer duo named Galib as their leader after they were arrested in Nepal in 1998, sources said.
The duo came to Bangladesh to train up Rohingya rebels in 1995 and stayed at Galib's Nawdapara den in Rajshahi. They were taken to a house in Arambagh in Dhaka on their way to Chittagong under Galib's supervision, sources said. The foreign militants first trained up Rohingyas and then local militants on Rahman's orders for four to six years. Sources said their primary target was to send the recruits to the Afghan war front as a backup force. The training ultimately focused on rearing militants inside the country following a decision by Galib and Rahman at a meeting at Sadrul Alam's house in Chittagong in 1998, investigators said. Galib's nephew Alam was trapped after the August 17 blasts last year.
Sources said Rahman went to Saudi Arabia for higher studies at Madina University on Galib's recommendation. Galib at a press conference before his arrest claimed he had no contacts with Rahman since his return from Madina. Galib at an Ahab conference in Rajshahi in 1997 introduced a number of guests from India, Pakistan, Nepal, the Maldives, Bhutan and Sri Lanka. The guests include Pakistani Nasser al Rahmani, an alleged leader of Saudi Hizbullah, who carries a bounty of $5 million declared by FBI for his link to al Qaeda. Galib also introduced Abdul Matin Salafi, Maolana Abdul Wahab Khiljee of Punjab, Ahle Hadith leader Abdullah Salafi of Murshidabad from India and Abdullah Abdut Tawat Al Madani from Nepal. Though Salafi was banished from Bangladesh in 1988, he took part in the Ahab meet in 1997. Investigators have found Galib had a joint bank account with him in 1989-90.
A leader of Jagrata Muslim Janata Bangladesh (JMJB) in 2004 told The Daily Star about 20 of their leaders and activists worked with al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden.

Hi Natalie,
You can't really post without registering, other than sending visitor messages, like this. Best therefore just to share Dom's account and sign your contributions with your own name.
What's the problem with the SL-1200? Don't expect it to sound great in stock form - it needs a fair bit of work before it becomes a serious T/T!
Hi Marco, Ive ried to register on AOS but as the server is already being used by Dom the computer wont let me register? Would it be ok if I posted without registering. We have recently purchased a Technics SL1200 and I have not been impressed with it. Dom bought it for me to bling up and I would like to get some idea's from different members as this is going to be a project for us both and to help me become more ofey with turntables. I'm quite aware that some of the members on AOS are avid technic fans, but as most of our work is based around idler turntables, I haven't had a lot of experience with the technics/pioneers. Please can you let me know if that is ok.
Regards Natalie
Hi Marco, hope you are well. We have finally got our first batch of valve amps ready for sale. It's been a nightmare getting this far and we missed our aimed for price point but only just. Do you fancy having a try out of one? I can send one up to you, you can play with it for a week or two and then I can get Parcelforce to come and get it back.
Let me know via pm if you are interested.
All the best,
Hi Denis,
Sorry, it is not possible for members to delete their profiles.
Please pop into the Welcome area and post the introduction you wrote in the classifieds section, and your ad will be restored with immediate effect
I have been looking to delete my profile but couldn't found the right page...
could you tell me how to do it or simply remove it...
Thank you for informations. i go too Drawing board soon !
Hi Richard,
Thanks for your message. Glad you're enjoying your DAS-R1. Unfortunately I don't know the answer to your question.
What I'd advise you do is post a thread in 'The Drawing Board' section of the forum, and ask that question, as there are people there who will be able to help.
If no-one answers, which I doubt, then send a private message to a guy called 'UV101', as he will definitely know.
As an aside, however, you will not be able to send PMs until you've made a minimum of five posts on the forum, therefore what I suggest you do is pop into the Welcome area, and introduce yourself, telling people what system you've got and what music you like. Post a few replies there and on your thread in the DIY room, and then you'll be able to PM 'UV101'.
Hope this helps - and good luck!
Hello Marco, i am Richard. I Have the fantastic Sony DAsr1 too. i have uprgaded my DAC. I have replaced the last black Soshin Capacitor with a MKP Sa cap Red series. i have replaced the Ad 712 Op amp by a BB Op2134. More precise and open space; I have upgraded the capacitors around the TDA 1541 with Mkp Rodenstein. They are better. I have a question for you. i want to replace the Op amp I/V conversion stage. you say Lm49710 in a post but I've seen in others post LM49720? One is stereo, one is mono. what is the truth? Mark of Audiocom not answered me. Sorry if I bothering you with my question but I'm that close to nirvana with this last modification ... Sorry for my bad english...
Dear Marco,
I am new to the forum and ended up here while searching the web for info on Croft Acoustics. I have a small stereo set up in my living room with a pair of B&W CM5, an Oppo BD83 + DAC and my TT Rega P3-24 (modded) and was looking for a new integrated amp.
Glenn Croft's name came up and I am about to receive a piece of kit from Croft's local distributor here in Brazil.
The info I've read so far in here has been vast and amazing as Croft is not really a popular name in Brazil. I wanted to run away from the names we see most here - Rotel, Marantz, Cambridge, Primare, MBLs, etc - and go for something different. I am a classical music lover and was looking for something that would give me the detail I was looking for. I must confess I loved the simplicity of the Croft's - and the prices. Must be the best bargain of the world of Hi-Fi
I am looking forward to hours of pleasure with my new Croft and will post here as soon as the kit arrives.
Warm regards, Claudia

Who comes to steal
Your victor's crown
So close to the day
Of salvation
A rebel from eons ago
Rejected God's rule
An angel of darkness
Was cast to the earth
Not wanting to worship Jesus
Lucifer set his course of pride
He would not disavow his belief
For Lucifer deemed himself
More worthy of worship
He didn't accept
God's laws of love
Dared to promote
Rebellion, Selfishness, and Sin
Satan, this Lucifer
Brought angels to earth
The ones he deceived
Forming his league
He battles against
People who seem weak
Discouraged ones
Who let go of Jesus' hand
Satan brilliantly battles
To tear us all
Away from God
Even His elect
When Satan calls
Don't argue, you'll lose
Cast him away
Using the Word of God
Call to Jesus
He's here beside you
Take His hand
His strength is yours
Abide in Him
Your loving Savior
King of kings
His strength will conquer
Receive freedom and liberty
Abide with God
Block Satan's lies
He'll deceive the mind
Constrict the body
Offer you the world
With a partial release
If you side with him
Shouldn't I walk with Jesus
Some sense an easy way
Out of trouble
Ask Satan to give you
What you really want
Carnal pleasure that covers pain
Success for a lifetime
Fame you deserve
No matter the cost
What does Jesus require
Obedience, sacrifice, discipline
Not much of a life, you imagine
Turning aside
Departing from the Law
So what's so wrong
With little sins, you reason
Most of us tell little lies
Desire what God has forbidden
Neglect the needy
Continue to swear
It's no big deal, you say
Just camp on the fringe
Of the wicked a while
Have some fun
Explore heavenly pastures later
Nobody's perfect
God will understand
But listen
God calls us to holiness
He created us
Loves us
And demands loyalty
We are to worship
Only Him
Not the idols of this world
God gifted us a heart
With a longing for Him
Only in relationship with God
Is there a ticket
To eternal life
Acceptance of Jesus' sacrifice
On Calvary
And in the transforming
Nature of His love
Lies our freedom from condemnation
By the law
For He presents us
Sin free before the Father
Because He has assigned us
His righteousness
O come, all ye faithful,
joyful and triumphant,
O come ye, O come ye, to Bethlehem!
Come and behold Him, born the King of angels!
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
Christ, the Lord!
Sing choirs of angels,
sing in exultation,
O sing, all ye citizens of heaven above!
Glory to God, all glory in the highest!
Yea, Lord, we greet Thee,
born this happy morning,
Jesus, to Thee be all glory given;
Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing!
—O Come, All Ye Faithful; Anonymous, Latin, 18th century
Translated by Frederick Oakeley, 1841, and others
For unto us
The Christ Child is born
His peace and love
Enter our hearts
Christ comes not
Just once a year
But every day
Our hearts can accommodate
His love
A miracle of divine origin
Transforming our hearts
Softening hard feelings
And melting hate
Originating acts of kindness
Propelling us
To go out of our way
To serve those less fortunate
His love
Now our constant companion
Not easily uprooted
From our hearts
A new life
Protected by
Our loving maintenance
Of His gift
By our humble acceptance
He is our Creator
Due all attention,
Honor, and worship
The day of promise
For all generations
A Savior is born
While shepherds tend
Flocks in the fields
A multitude of angels
Announce His birth
A King, yet a Babe
Forever intertwined with humanity
Shepherds worship
This gift from God
Sent to capture hearts
Born to cast light
In the darkness
And through His life
To reign in our lives
As Lord
Our precious Savior
The Christ Child
O come let us adore Him
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God: the same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth" (John 1:1-4, 14).
Scripture clearly reveals Jesus Christ as our Creator and establishes His dual divine and human nature. Further, His life reveals God's glory — His magnificence and astounding character. Christ came into this world to give us life — eternal life. He came to cast light in the darkness, giving us truth, showing us the way. With the promise of His birth fulfilled, mankind could now be assured of a Child to become their Savior who would shower them with grace.
From the time God walked and communed with Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, through the Fall of Man, and with the passing of time, God's intent has always been to dwell with humans. He is a God of relationships. Christ came to save us from our sins and to restore our relationship with God — God the Father whom we had disobeyed. We can now confidently approach the throne of God with petitions and prayers of repentence through the mediation of Jesus Christ our Savior.
This Christmas season as we contemplate the birth of the Christ Child, let us give thanks and praise for His mercy in saving our fallen race and for His everlasting love for us. Let's reciprocate that love by using both His strength and the grace He offers freely to us to honor and obey His Ten Commandments. Our Creator and Savior is worthy of no less worship and adoration.
—Scripture quotations taken from KJV—
God can function as our wellspring of encouragement and love if we turn to Him while we're down, discouraged, or hurting. But rather than seeking Him only when we're in dire straits, God wants us to develop a daily, continuous, love relationship with Him. He has deemed this relationship the most important commitment of our lives. It honors Him and gives vitality to everything else we do.
He is our Abba Father, the One who can heal us when we feel hurt, unappreciated, or misunderstood. Then while supporting us emotionally He partners with us to do His work.
God wants to impart wisdom, courage, and truth to us through His Word. We learn of Him through pryerfully reading His Word. Ultimately, He seeks our love and cherishes our worship of Him, after teaching us how to love through our love relationship with Him.
Humans are inherently self-centered and selfish. God demonstrated His love for us by giving His Son as a sacrifice on the cruel cross of Calvary, thus giving us the opportunity for eternal life with Him. Through Jesus' life, recorded in the Bible, He gives us an example of love born of selflessness. Jesus served people's needs by healing physically, thus drawing people's hearts close to Him. He healed spiritually as well, with teachings that were radically different from the legalistic teachings of the Pharisees, a group of Jewish leaders of the Law when Jesus was on earth. Jesus meant to bring truth and life to all.
Today we have access to Jesus' teaching in the Bible. God intends for us to live extraordinary lives by reading and applying the Bible to our lives.
Everyday of Jesus' life He depended on the strength He received from His Father through prayer. God means for us to carry on a dialogue with Him each day so that we can feel His love and encourgement, leading us to conquer sin. God's love doesn't waver, take sides, or ever fail. Whereas human love, even as wonderful as it is, at times is fraught with weaknesses: jealousy, smothering, selfishness, broken promises, and failure to love fully.
When we connect with God in prayer, He offers us a haven from worry and a place of peace. God's love is the only perfect love. If we depend on His love, we will never be disappointed. Jesus invites us: "Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light" (Matt. 11:28-30). NKJV
The well ran dry
Who knows the cause
Could it be all thoughts
Are straggled and lost
Flowing not from His Word
We need a guide
To stay on track
Lest we derail
Losing the oil of life
Precious God-given power
To just say no
Denying Satan a bounty
Your priceless life
Priceless souls
Christ died to save
Grab your shields now
Cling to His Word
Enter its courts
Fall before the King
In adoration
Praise and honor
Give Him your ear
Surrender your heart
Pour out your soul
For to know Him
Cleanses thoughts
Returns us to the well
That never runs dry
"Sacrifice and offering You did not desire;
My ears You have opened;
Burnt offering and sin offering You did not require.
Then I said, 'Behold, I come;
In the scroll of the Book it is written of me.
I delight to do Your will, O my God,
And Your law is within my heart'"(Psalm 40:6-8).
God desires us to obey the commands He directs toward us and to obey the Ten Commandments, above personal sacrifices and prescribed burnt rituals. Here David speaks of the priest and prophet Samuel's experience recorded in 1 Samuel 15 in regards to King Saul. Saul and his army had just decimated the Amalekites as the Lord had commanded him to do. But Saul did not follow the Lord's command to also destroy all the enemy's livestock, but rather took them as plunder. Saul intended to sacrifice the best sheep and oxen to God, as was the Israelite's religious practice. But God, through Samuel, communicated to Saul that obedience is required above sacrifice and burnt offerings. To fully realize this required an opening of the ears to God's wishes, instead of one's inclination to do what one thinks is best, as Saul did.
God, in His infinite wisdom, always directs us to do what is best for us. Samuel, as well as David, realized this. Sacrificing to the Lord is fine, but true worship of God requires obedience to God, first and foremost. This is a prime ingredient to spiritual growth. If we live our lives in line with God's requirements as revealed in the Bible, we can also say, "Behold, I come. I delight to do Your will, O my God." We can serve God with joyful hearts because His Law is indelibly inscribed on our hearts. Our obedience to Him flows as a wellspring from our hearts.
(Quoted Scripture from NKJV.)
Have you ever thought about it? Is God deserving of our worship? Can someone other than God meet our deepest needs?
Let's explore these ideas. What deep, primal needs does God satisfy for the believer? Everyone needs to be accepted. God does not turn anyone away. He lovingly beckons all to join His family of believers, the Body of Christ. And He takes us as we are. Humans handle this differently. We want people to change to suit us. God doesn't require us to get rid of those bad habits first. He only requires us to believe in Jesus' sacrifice for us on the cross, to come to Him on our knees in confession and repentance, and to obey Him. Obedience, then, is not a burden, but an act of love on our part for a loving Father who knows what we need for happiness. Not continuous bliss, but a journey ripe with relationships that satisfy, including an intimate relationship with our Creator. As we draw close to Him, He embraces us, imparting peace, grace, and a certainty of eternal life with Him as long as we remain true to Him.
Another of our needs is love. No one loves us more than God. His love is unconditional. We don't have to love Him first or obey Him to earn His love. He just loves us. Period. Even though we are flawed and sinful, God extends His arms to embrace us, soothing us with His compassion, leading us on our journey. If we abide in Him, this journey will lead to Heaven.
Who wouldn't want to love and worship a God who satisfies our every need? Sadly, only those without love. The next time you encounter a lost soul without love, extend to him or her behavior that speaks of love and compassion. Just a smile and a few well chosen words can do wonders. Then lead them to God. Tell them what God has done for you. Many will accept a relationship with a God who satisfies needs others can't satisfy.
Why do you worship God? What has He done for you? Share if you'd like.

SIUE men's soccer to join MAC immediately
SIUE won't have to wait to begin play in its new league
EDWARDSVILLE – The SIUE men's soccer team received word Thursday it won't have to wait to begin play as a members of the Mid-American Conference. The Cougars, winners of the Missouri Valley Conference Tounament last season, will begin play as a member of the MAC with the upcoming fall season.
"It's a fantastic opportunity," SIUE coach Mario Sanchez said. "Statistically-speaking the MAC is above the (Missouri) Valley. It's a move that helps to elevate our program and for me, it's what SIUE is about. It's another push toward the national stage."
It was announced last week that SIUE's men's soccer and wrestling teams will move to the MAC. While it was thought the move would become official in the 2018-19 school year, the MAC announced Thursday that SIUE's affiliate MAC membership in men's soccer will become effective this fall.
Men's soccer and wrestling are the only two sports at SIUE that aren't members of the Ohio Valley Conference, since those two sports are not offered by the OVC. The Cougars soccer team has fared well in the Missouri valley conference, winning the postseason conference tournament twice. The wrestling team has been part of the Southern Conference.
Buffalo, which had been part of the MAC, dropped men's soccer, leaving the league with only five members. According to NCAA regulations, conferences must have at least six teams in order for the league tournament champion to receive an automatic berth in the College Cup, the NCAA Division I National Tournament.
With the addition of SIUE, the MAC will continue to have six men's soccer programs: Akron, Bowling Green, Northern Illinois and Western Michigan are full members, with SIUE and West Virginia affiliate members, meaning they compete in the MAC only in that sport. The Cougars will be eligible to compete for the conference title and the automatic NCAA berth.
SIUE has a storied history in men's soccer. The Cougars won the NCAA Division I national championship in 1979. They were national runners-up in 1975, were third in 1977 and were a national semifinalists in 1982. SIUE also captured the College Division national championship in 1972. After dropping to Division II, SIUE was runner-up at the Division II level in 2004 and was a national semifinalist in 2005.
"Being in the MVC was great early on," Sanchez said. "It was a win-win for both sides. Creighton had left and SIUE helped fill their spot. And I think this move may have been helped along with Buffalo (formerly of the MAC) dropping (men's soccer)."

Ever wonder why your gutters act like a magnet for icicles? I ran across a nice little article explaining why:
Icicles form when snow or ice melts off a surface or object and runs or drips into an area where it can freeze again. What makes eaves and rain gutters such great places for icicles to form is their proximity to both direct sunshine and interior heat escaping from inside a home or other building.

THIS WAS THE scene following another weekend bender by the 'Divis Hoods', with the hallways of one of the remaining flats in Ross Street plastered in outrageous graffiti.
Along with the graffiti, which aims vitriol at paramilitaries and the PSNI, the hallways of the complex were left strewn with litter.
One resident told the Andersonstown News: "The graffiti is horrible, explicit, and it covers every surface of the halls and lobby. Every weekend we are tortured and intimidated by these hoods and it needs to stop."
This paper has regularly reported on the activities of the 'DHLA' or Divis Hoods Liberation Army, a gang of young people in the lower Falls and Divis who terrorise residents with car crime and anti-social behaviour.
The Ross Street flats in particular have become a notorious stomping ground for the gang. Several years ago a number of the flats were demolished and replaced by new family housing.
However, thugs regularly break into the remaining flats, drink in the communal areas, verbally and physically abuse terrified residents and vandalise the flats and surrounding area.
There are fears in the area as the holidays approach that anti-social behaviour could worsen as well-known hoods are released on Christmas parole. Last year during the same period cars were raced up and down the Falls Road, with gloating footage posted on social media sites.
Speaking to the Andersonstown News, Gerard Diver of the Falls Residents' Association/ Cumann Áitritheoirí na bhFál, said the most recent bout of anti-social activity was "unacceptable" and added that "a small group of hoods appear to be intent on wrecking their own area".
"I viewed the graffiti today with residents and it's a disgrace," he said. "We are doing our best to attract funding for development and different projects in the lower Falls and these sort of acts run contrary to any effort to improve things for the community."
Following on from the weekend, on Tuesday a 16-year-old male was arrested in Ross Street following a robbery that occurred at commercial premises in Lanark Way. The three males involved in the robbery made off in a stolen car in the direction of the Falls Road, where their car collided with several other vehicles.
The car was found on fire in Ross Street just after 5.55pm and the youth arrested has since been charged with robbery and allowing himself to be carried. Detective Sergeant Kenneth Leckey appealed for information. "I would ask anyone who knows anything about this incident to contact CID at Tennent Street station on the non-emergency number 101."

Political art has come into its own (and moved on to the streets) in recent years. In the run-up to this year's General Election, the excellent Upstart campaign asked for submissions from artists, illustrators, writers, designers and film-makers to come up with an antidote to the candidate election posters. Anti Room's Nuala Ní Chonchúir wrote an election haiku (seen here, nestled cosily between posters for Labour and Independent Paul Sommerville) and gave us an idea.
We want you to embrace your inner Yeats and tap that Seamus Heaney vein and hit us your best election haiku.
We'll even offer a mystery prize for the best one.
Let the 5-7-5 syllable madness begin!

West Ashley's Avondale continues to come into its own. Families and young professionals alike call the 'hood home, enjoying a plethora of social establishments within walking distance, like Charles Towne Fermentory on one side and Mex 1 Coastal Cantina on the other, not to mention a bikeable/walkable grocery store, coffee shop (thank you baby Jesus), a girly dessert-cocktail-coffee spot, two salons, a barber shop (let's hear it for the boys), a thrift store, a consignment shop, and so much more. Residents are grateful to reside in such a welcoming, artsy place filled with outdoor art that you want to show friends visiting from out of town — seriously, locals love these murals like they're part of our own personal collection. And of course, we are thankful for Avondale institutions like Gerald's Tires & Brakes, which gives away more roses than The Bachelor; Gene's Haufbrau, with its baller beers and endearingly ridiculous bathrooms; and Voodoo, because we all like to get a little girl-drink drunk sometimes, am I right?

NEJM, 8 November 2017
Author: Arthur R. Derse
"Health care professionals generally have a respectful, sometimes even friendly, attitude toward law enforcement. We may feel we're on the same team as the police when we're treating victims of crime, and police may be called to protect us from people who seek to harm us in the hospital. Some health care professionals in emergency departments or intensive care units may have frequent interactions with police officers who are investigating alleged crimes. But the relationship may be profoundly tested when health care professionals refuse demands from law enforcement that conflict with what we understand to be our professional obligations."

Why Combine a 360 Camera with Binaural Microphone Head
Shooting 360 video is only half of the story. I know that 360 is a pain right now and getting it to work may be a hassle with all the camera's, stiching and just about everything can go wrong during the shoot. Because of that most people who are capturing in 360 forget just how important the audio is and don't focus on it. Read on with you are shooting of thinking about 360 video, we gathered some research and will be soon publishing actual recordings once this rig is complete!

3D Printed 360 3D Camera Rig model
Its here! I'm releasing it to the public so more people can try out the rig and see te results.
Project is currently documented on http://360cameraonline.com/
360 video currently is a hard thing to pull of and requires investing in multiple cameras. This concept saves a lot of money considering its using mobius camera instead of expensive GoPro's (most 360 3D printed rigs are based on GoPro).
3D Printing a camera rig saves a lot of time, and its super hard to manually make this rig so that each lens is exactly at a 51 degree. The rig enables to shoot panoramic 360 3D footage. Lenses are rotated horizontaly for greater field of view.
Based on Jim Watters design
Prints fine on a standard 20mm x 20mm build plate.
Print stil files.
Buy 14 cheap mobius cameras with wide Lens B + 14 exenstion cables for lens seperation the body of the cameras are out of the way – more compact camera
Put everything together
Add one or two GoPro for top view strap with rubber bands
Figure out a way to start recording all at the same time or use Mobius continuous recording. After 5 minutes of run time all the footage should be in sync. If anyone has an idea how to do this by arduino or any other way let me know!
Enjoy! 🙂

It is clear there is a revolution going on in the do-it-yourself (DIY) or maker movement. In fact, Chris Anderson, Wired Magazine's former editor-in-chief, and others call it the new industrial revolution. At the heart of this revolution is micro-manufacturing, things like 3D printing that are quickly becoming accessible to anyone—and everyone. As 3D printing, and therefore rapid prototyping, reaches our desktops, millions of people are building what they want whenever they want it and innovation is moving at lighting speed.
But with the growing revolution in 3D printing comes growing waste. How can we build integrated system solutions that favor recycling and sustainable, compostable materials (biomaterials) that still fulfill all the technical requirements to be used at the large-scale?
On May 2-4, join swissnex San Francisco, Startup Nectar, and swisscleantech for a series of inspiring lectures and hands-on events that attempt to answer these questions and examine the possibilities (and challenges) of 3D printing and biomaterials.
Hear from leading scholars and entrepreneurs about the bright and sustainable future for in-home manufacturing. Make your own biomaterial and put it to the test in a 3D printer. And discover how innovative companies are taking cues from nature to make their technologies and solutions cleaner.
Thursday, May 2: The Ethics and Sustainability of 3D Printing, evening conference and panel discussion
Friday, May 3: Sustainable 3D Printing Summit, day-long workshop for 3D printing experts
Saturday, May 4: DIY Biomaterials: A Factory in Your Kitchen, afternoon workshop
Stay tuned for more information.
