Nobu Ibiza Bay Hotel Delivers 5-Star Wi-Fi
By Atul Bhatnagar September 8, 2022
Wi-Fi can make or break a hotel guest's experience. It touches every moment of the day. When the Wi-Fi just works, hospitality staff can focus on the more visible aspects of making guests feel welcome and comfortable. Each guest has a great experience and looks forward to their next stay.
Nobu Ibiza Bay hotel in the Balearic Islands in Spain delivers Wi-Fi connectivity the way it should be. Guests can now enjoy access speeds of up to 600 Mbps in their rooms and have a unique system that allows them to maintain clear videoconferencing and other streaming connectivity while roaming from one area to the next.
"The demand for quality connectivity has increased exponentially since the start of the pandemic," says Javier Muñoz, CEO of Spanred, the integrator who designed the solution. "Nobu Ibiza Bay is now at the state of the art of Wi-Fi, offering a premium connectivity experience anywhere in the hotel."
The hotel is part of Nobu Hospitality, the global lifestyle brand founded by Michelin-starred chef Nobu Matsuhisa, actor Robert De Niro and producer Meir Teper, which now has 11 establishments in Europe, five of them in Spain. The hotel recently renovated its Wi-Fi to exponentially improve access speed, expand coverage and grow the number of simultaneous users.
The project was completed in one week and involved the deployment of a new, high-speed, high-capacity Gigabit network. The deployment included the installation of an access point in each of its 152 rooms and another 100 access points spread throughout the hotel's different facilities and areas such as swimming pools, restaurants, beach bars, cafes, the wellness area, stores, the hairdresser, the fitness center and rooftop.
In addition to Wi-Fi, each guest room now also has multiple Gig E ports for connecting game consoles, computers and any other device. Spanred chose Cambium Networks' cnPilot e425H indoor Wi-Fi wall plate access points that include these network outlets, simplifying deployment and eliminating the need for any construction work. For more information check out this recent article in Profesional Horeca on how the hotel offers hyperconnectivity to improve guest experiences.

Appears to be a natural. We didn't get high enough to get a close look as the surface was pencil hard in exposed terrain. Some soft turns were found in the woods though. Flume and Silver Cascade both had pockets of 4F however those are few and far between. Much of the 8cm pencil crust there was faceted beneath all the way to the ice. Bring a rope.

A cover document explaining in detail what type of value is being sought ("purpose") and how the appraisal is to be used ("function" or "assigned use").
A complete accurate description of property written in such a manner that it can be identified without photographs.
A statement by the appraiser that he or she has no financial interest in the property of that such interest is disclosed in the report.
The appraiser's qualifications and signature.
The appropriate "purpose" and "assigned use" are not stated.
Name and address of client requesting appraisal.
Name of owner of property if different from above.
Type of appraisal (i.e. fair market, retail replacement, diminished value, etc.).
Definition of the appraisal terminology.
Intended use or purpose of the appraisal.
Description of items including all pertinent information necessary to distinguish appraised item from other like items.
Condition of item (e.g. "as is", etc.) if applicable.
Value of the items based on specified marketplace.
Methodology used in determining value.
Signature of person or persons who made the valuations.
Statement of compliance to USPAP codes.
A statement of any limiting conditions or assumptions, if applicable.
Whenever there's a question about the value of your personal property, there's also a risk involved. It may be the risk of selling too low, or of paying too much, the risk of being under or over insured, the risk of not getting your fair share in a division of property, the risk of incurring tax penalties or being audited when claiming a deduction for charitable contribution or when calculating estate taxes.
A professional appraiser helps you manage these and other such risks by providing a written opinion of value, upon which you can base your financial decisions.
Rather than just being an educated guess, the professional appraiser's value conclusions are based on prescribed methods of evaluation, research, and report writing.
Below are some of the questions and concerns that a consumer should be aware of and should consider asking a potential appraiser before hiring them to appraise property of any value.
A qualified appraiser has formal education in appraisal theory, principles, procedures, ethics, and law. The appraiser should be up to date on the latest appraisal standards. Continuing education and testing are the only ways to insure this competence.
The appraiser you hire should be familiar with the type of property you want appraised and know how to value it correctly.
Expertise on a particular type of property is not enough if the "expert" does not know how to evaluate an item for its appropriate worth. Without appraisal training, these "experts" have no way of understanding the complicated variety of marketplace definitions that are used to determine appropriate values for appropriate uses.
No. In most states anyone can claim to be an antique appraiser, whether they have had formal training or not. It is important to ask the prospective appraiser what type of formal appraisal education training he or she has received. Obtaining a copy of the appraiser' professional profile or resume can help you evaluate the appraiser's credentials.
No appraiser should claim expertise in everything. A good appraiser knows his or her limits, and is expected to consult with other experts when necessary.
DO NOT hire an appraiser who charges a percentage of the appraised value, or charges a "contingency" fee. These practices are clearly conflicts of interests, and may result in biased values. The IRS will not accept an appraisal done with such fee arrangements. DO NOT PERMIT AN APPAISER TO MAKE AN OFFER ON AN ITEM HE/SHE HAS APPRAISED.
You should receive a formal, type written report that presents the information you need in a complete and organized way.
...that the same item may have many different appraised values depending on how you intend to use the appraisal? For instance, a value for insurance may be very different than a value for estate tax, consumer resale, or charitable contribution. Other assigned uses include investment, liquidation, price confirmation, equitable distribution, loan collateral, casualty loss, and many more.
Qualified, educated appraisers understand the many different types of values, assigned uses, and market levels. He or she works with you to choose the proper type of value so that you can u se the appraisal correctly and effectively.

A Shorten Labor Government will develop and implement a national plan to reduce homelessness through the Council of Australian Governments.
Opposition Leader Bill Shorten and Shadow Minister for Housing and Homelessness Doug Cameron today welcomed Major Brendan Nottle of the Salvation Army, as he completed his 40-day, 700-kilometre walk from Melbourne to Canberra to raise awareness of homelessness.
Major Nottle is calling for a bi-partisan, long-term plan that addresses not only homelessness but all the issues that contribute to it – such as mental health, trauma and substance abuse issues.
Labor agrees with Major Nottle. There is a massive gap in housing policy – and we need national leadership to address it.
At the 2016 election, Labor pledged to halve homelessness by 2025 by immediately commencing work with the states and territories on a national plan to address this national issue.
A particular focus for national reform must be supporting women and children escaping family violence. Increasingly, family violence is forcing women and children out of their homes and into homelessness.
The latest Australian Institute of Health and Welfare data shows that each year about 100,000 women and children are seeking support for housing as a result of escaping violence.
Domestic and family violence is now the main reason women and children have to leave their homes.
Providing $88 million for a new Safe Housing Fund to increase transitional housing options for women and children escaping domestic and family violence, young people exiting out-of-home care and older women on low incomes who are at risk of homelessness.
Establishing a bond aggregator to increase investment in affordable housing.
Improving the National Housing Affordability Agreement, re-establishing the National Housing Supply Council and appointing a dedicated Minister for Housing.
This builds on our other major measures to address housing affordability – including reforms to negative gearing and capital gains tax concessions.
At the 2011 Census, 105,000 Australians were homeless. More than 17,000 of these are children.
No state or territory, city or country town is immune from homelessness – and every government has a role to play to reduce homelessness.
The Liberals under Abbott and Turnbull have cut funding and services to address homelessness.
A new Labor Government will put tackling homelessness back on the national agenda – where it belongs.

A Death in the Family
"I am distressed for you my brother Jonathan. How the mighty are fallen in the midst of battle…" — David's lament for his fallen best friend. These were the words I chose to read from the pulpit to the nearly two thousand people who spontaneously attended our Friday night service on November 22, 1963. And it wasn't easy to read them. It's painful to this day and I am not alone. Not alone, but it remains a singular experience for most of us, our personal loss even more than our collective loss.
John Kennedy's presidency was exceedingly brief. Arthur Schlesinger recounted it as days, not years. Jackie wanted us to remember it as a shining moment. And, I believe, it is precisely because it was a flash in time, that has his legacy became so powerful. Since he didn't have the opportunity to play it out, inevitably (as we all do on some level) to screw it up, we're free to fill in gaps, to dream the dreams. The most powerful myths are those over which we have ultimate control. Heroes are always bigger than life because we need them to be just that. And heaven knows, there aren't too many heroes around these days, making JFK all the more precious.
Given the weight of the myth factor, pundits and talking heads rush in to point out the substance behind the myth, to fill in the gap. They remind us of missiles, of the cheering crowds in Berlin and of a the introduced, though not passed, landmark Civil Rights legislation. All important, all fair but all totally besides the point. There is nothing wrong with myth which has always been far more powerful and enduring for humans than fact. The myth of JFK's short Presidency was its ultimate accomplishment.
Style over substance, was exactly what we needed so desperately after the deadly dull Eisenhower years. When Jack Kennedy came to the fore, in emotional terms America had yet to fully recover from World War II. The FDR antidote personalities were in place -- first Truman and then Ike, both extremely decent men but totally lacking the charismatic electricity of their predecessor. And let's not forget Joe McCarthy who left us dispirited and wondering if democracy had actually prevailed in the first half of the Century. Enter Jack Kennedy. He gave us the lift we needed and, while countless Americans did not realize the magnitude of the gift until he was gone, he made us feel good about our country, proud of it. It wasn't a matter of wearing metal flags on our lapels. It was real.
Which brings me to 2003, the fortieth anniversary. Where is JFK now when we need him again? There's been this death in the family and we still can't seem to get over it.
Another Viet Nam: Wishful Thinking
As we become increasingly mired in an Iraqi morass, it's hard for any of us not to think of Viet Nam. Regardless of whether we compare or contrast, we too are mired, but in the wrong neighborhood. Would that Iraq were a Cold War conflict in which governments and economic-political ideologies were at play. Wishful thinking. 2003 is a very different place. Unlike Viet Nam, we are not putting ourselves in the middle of a civil war because of some domino theory. While long since discredited, at least it had a logic and a consistent context. The idea that entering Iraq, a plan that we now know for sure was hatched long before 9/11, was part of a war on terrorism is more than a stretch. It's not credible. Iraq had to do with egos (personal and national) and oil. Controlling natural resources, harks back to an age-old purpose of Colonialism. But even here, the past is not necessarily the most valuable teacher other than to say that locals still dislike foreign takeovers, even when they are portrayed as transitional and short term.
When I open my day with the BBC news and the New York Times, it's not Viet Nam that comes to mind, but something geographically much closer. Israel and the conflict with the Palestinians. It's here that the parallels are so obvious and so very disturbing. The Intifada, which manifests itself largely in attacks against the innocent, is horrendous. The right of Israel, born out of a Holocaust in which there were enough dirty hands to circle the globe, to exist is not a question. But the response that the Israeli government has mounted, one that I would describe as "a head for an eye" simply isn't working. If Palestinians on the Street were unhappy and frustrated at the start, they are now filled with fury. Sure the lack of constructive leadership from within must be blamed for that as well, but not as much as what military people euphemistically call "collateral damage." I like to say that minor surgery is something that happens to someone else. Collateral damage is much the same.
The idea of turning the other cheek is not only difficult, thoughtful people reasonably argue that it sends the wrong message. Few Americans, caught up in September horror, opposed going after the Taliban and Osama Bin Laden. But were Gandhi and Martin Luther King irrational idealists? I don't think so. Quite the opposite, they were thoughtful strategists who took difficult and unconventional steps to reach their goals. Their rationale was simple. If you want to have significant movement, you have to change the conversation. Someone has to say stop, and more importantly to act on his own call for inaction.
So we are now proceeding with our own "West Bank" retaliation and each day gaining less and paying more. We're facing an Intifada in which terrorist tactics are used by desperate outgunned people who feel colonized and we simply don't know what to do except follow the Sharon strategy. Consequently, the innocent Street is confused and getting increasingly angry. Every day we are looking more and more like the enemy not the liberator. A rush trip to Washington for instructions and a return with frantic cosmetics crafted in the Spin Rooms on Pennsylvania Avenue. A more rapid turn over of "power." And while we're waiting, substantially increased use of force to send a message. The "Peace Process" and the tanks. Sound familiar?
I'm having some serious doubts about the Elizabeth Smart Story, the CBS docudrama scheduled for broadcast this coming Sunday. I'm not sure it's going to be accurate or that all of the conversations between the principals, especially those who captured poor Elizabeth, are going to be true to what was really said, or meant. I'm a little worried about the image of mother Smart and if father Smart might come off a little less up to his game than he really is.
In the day of the reality show (of which CBS claims to be a proud parent), let's get real. Accuracy was never the issue here. There was plenty of time to vet the script of Mr. and Mrs. Gipper's story. And let's also be honest. Television fare of this kind, much less a great deal of the glossy "news" we get today, wouldn't meet the Ed Murrow standard or, in some cases, even the smell test. Using lack of accuracy as an excuse is a slippery slope for a tarnished media that so often seems no longer capable of distinguishing between reporting and editorializing.
CBS caved into pressure. They accepted the direction of Conservative critics, just as the whole country has been caving into those same people with disastrous results. In that regard, it seems almost unfair to blame them. But in doing so, regardless of the logic (which must have included fear of Sponsor abandonment) they have done damage to free expression. If we are not fighting for the right of people to express, even erroneously, what the hell are we fighting for?
I feel for our former President and his family now sharing a dark world that in many ways is worse than no world at all. I think it's always tricky to portray the living which anyone who has seen her or his story on screen can surly attest is likely to be largely fictional and thus painful to one degree or another. But public people chose to be public and along with the adulation and chauffeurs comes a loss of full personal control. You can't build a myth around yourself, or allow one to be built, without risking the balloon being punctured, even if often inaccurately so.
Docudramas are, and always have been, off the factual mark to one degree or another. It's why I generally find them offensive. But that's a matter of taste not censorship. In a time when neo-McCarthyism is afoot in some very high places, we can't be complacent about the "why" of what happened here. Be assured, accuracy never came into legitimate play in CBS's decision, even if they have deluded themselves into the fact that it did. The word disingenuous, however, does come to mind.
Things are Getting Better
The Central Park Reservoir opened in 1862 surrounded by an elegant 5' high iron fence providing an unencumbered view of the growing city around it. In 1926 that fence was replaced a mundane chain-link affair which couldn't destroy the view altogether but gave it a gauze-like, not to mention rusted-out, quality. Surrounding the water is a track, the favorite of many New Yorkers like myself and countless other jogging visitors. It's always been a near perfect place. Early this past summer, staggered work begin on restoring the original fence design. Within the last few weeks a large section has been reopened. One always surmised that the project would enhance this beloved urban space, but what it has done is no less than astounding. Running this familiar track, is a dramatically different and wondrous experience. So, too, is what's happening to the City's Hudson shore line. The long decaying rot of abandoned piers and neglected waterfront is being replaced by wonderful parks. One can now bicycle down a protected path (with a few remaining detours) from the George Washington Bridge to the Battery. Riverside Park is being extended South and will one day join with that new park system below 59th Street. In New York, things are getting better.
Things are getting better in Iraq as well. Right. It seems now that every Thursday and Sunday we're getting the classic half-full, half-empty in the columns of Tom Friedman and Maureen Dowd. Among the issues at hand, for them and for a growing number of others, is whether we're experiencing "déjà vous all over again?" Friedman doesn't see Viet Nam, Dowd does. And so do I in much the same way. It isn't that these wars are identical in cause or content, but much more in the way we Americans come to them. There is an eerie echo in those rosy statements coming out of the Administration. The "we'll be home by Christmas" and the preposterous proclamation that increasing violence is a sign of "enemy" desperation (read imminent defeat). At least as important, and sadly Tom Friedman falls into that pit, is an inability to admit being wrong. We know today that our suspicions about motivation and our doubts about proclaimed immediate threat were correct. Perhaps if that had not been the case, we too might be holding on to our rightness. Perhaps, but we haven't put so many kids at risk and there is no joy or satisfaction in saying we told you so. Far from it. Did you hear that the Defense Department is not allowing ceremonial returns of the dead and that our caring President has not attended a single funeral. Counting the dead just doesn't smack of success and missions accomplished. In downplaying individual tragedy these people are under the illusion that we won't notice its magnitude.
It's not merely that the mission has not been accomplished in Iraq, it's that we're in a global quagmire of terrorism in which we continue to combat symptoms not causes. Just look at the unending terror in Israel where military strike backs have been notoriously unsuccessful while the ongoing issues are not even being addressed and the violence just continues. And look at the other breeding grounds of hopelessness around a world in which the gulf between rich and poor is growing daily. The most disturbing part of it all, however, is not our machismo or our denial, but the fact that, for the most part, we just don't get it. We remain a largely insular people who always want to be in absolute control and are unforgiving to those who won't follow our lead or who resist being like us. How dare they? We are language and culturally deficient which is part of what got us into trouble in the 60's and what clearly is hurting us still in Baghdad and other places. We continue to have a short attention span with a mentality of out-of-sight means out-of-mind and thus not really happening.
I love our renewed running track and our revitalized shoreline. New York needs the boost which these amenities provide. But getting things better, requires more than surface cosmetics. I don't see that happening. I take it back. Things are not getting better.

This is the sixth installment of my review of the late Robert Jordan's The Eye of the World, book 1 of the Wheel of Time series. I'd like to draw your attention to the important caveats I made in part one discussing my perspective, bias and limitations and also my respect for the author.
Catch up on the previous installments: the prologue (part 1), looked at the hook, characters and world-building (part 2), describing characters and authentic in-world dialogue (part 3,), an addendum, character perspectives and how to teach reader's about the fantasy-world (part 4) and the role and character of Thom Merrilin (part 5).
In this sixth installment we look at the Origin Story of the main character Rand, as it unfolds in chapter 5.
As a brief recap the story so far is that there are a mysterious, ominous visitor hanging around town – a black cloaked man riding a horse who has all the young lads on edge. Tam takes Rand back to the farm, unwilling to let the farm remain unprotected with strangers lurking about.
Jordan writes that Tam and Rand were considered unusual because the two of them lived alone, instead of the social norm of a house filled with wider relatives. It could be because they had no other relatives, but I imagine Jordan's foresight is at work in this.
Later in the series we see Rand becoming increasingly isolated; keeping his own council, bearing the fate of the world on his own shoulders, alone. His friends and companions are all trying to get him to open up, but he is firmly resisting. Could it be that Rand is more inclined to be independent because of his isolated upbringing, more so than someone else who grew up with a 'wider team' mentality? Did those early years of 'getting by' build a foundation of self-determination, independence and mental isolation?
The way Jordan describes the farm chores lend authenticity to his writing, and experience to Rand. Rand takes care of the pony, checks in on the sheep, cow and chickens, hoes the vegetable garden and splits a veritable mountain of wood. It is a significant chunk of text, but it shows the passage of time and reinforces Rand's work ethic and competency that we saw earlier in the book. The reader is left with the picture that this is a life in which he is comfortable: queue the dramatic change. In fact, in all of Rand's 'farming' and the ideal setting of preparing a meal before bed we almost lose sight of the danger lurking beyond the horizon.
Here, it was possible to forget the chill beyond the walls. There was no false Dragon here. No wars or Aes Sedai. No men in black cloaks.
(I actually think the dramatic impact unfolding would have been greater without that line, drawing the reader back to the danger).
We also see that there is more to Tam al'Thor than a simple sheep herder. Not only does he have weird 'envision the void' tricks that enable him to win archery contests, but he also has some skills and wisdom beyond that of shearing sheep.
When he [Tam] had made a complete circuit of the house, he did the same around the barn and the sheep pen, still studying the ground. He even checked the smokehouse and the curing shed. Drawing a bucket of water from the well, he filled a cupped hand, sniffed the water, and gingerly touched it with the tip of his tongue. Abruptly he barked a laugh, then drank it down in a quick gulp.
How does Tam know to do this? What does he know or suspect more than the reader? Why is Tam later extravagant with the use of numerous candles? Why does he uncharacteristically (and against the social norm) bolt the doors? Why does he pull out a sword from storage? Why does he have a sword?
Throughout the chapter Tam is acting stranger, the sense of doom is escalating in the reader. Note the order in which he does these things, all are escalations. Had Tam immediately retrieved the sword upon getting home, we would not had the slower buildup of tension. Tam fetching the sword is the climax of anticipation.
Rand nodded and got the tea canister, but he wanted to know everything. Why would Tam have bought a sword? He could not imagine. And where had Tam come by it? How far away? No one ever left the Two Rivers; or very few, at least. He had always vaguely supposed his father must have gone outside—his mother had been an outlander—but a sword … ? He had a lot of questions to ask once they had settled at the table.
Note that Rand was filled with questions to ask Tam… and before a single question could be asked BOOM! they are attacked. These questions that the reader now wants answered have to be delayed until the action subsides. 'You want the answers…read on' I envision Jordan laughing with maniacal enthusiasm.
The intruders break in to the small house and we discover they are Trollocs, a corrupt human-animal blend, a twisted creation. Reading it, I realise that violence against monsters is more palatable than if it had been men at the other end of Tam's sword. Perhaps this reaches back to childhood fears that monsters should be slain, or abstracts out the nature of violence and death.
Note how Rand performs in the ensuing attack: he flees when told to do so (feeling guilty), he manages to yell a warning to Tam, he grappled (mistakenly, in the dark) with a hoe handle, yelled another warning (but nearly giving away his position), he fled and hid (as told to do), scared. And when he later was confronted by a Trolloc, the Trolloc virtually jumped onto Tam's sword. Rand killed him, but more by fluke than skill.
Rand was neither brave nor craven, competent nor incompetent. He did what he was told to do, but recognised his own mistakes along the way. He behaved exactly like we would expect a responsible teenager to act. If Jordan hadn't been as skillful he could have made him appear either ridiculously heroic or pathetically weak. Instead Jordan achieved a masterful balance.
So how do you defeat such as enemy when your outnumbered, lacking weaponry and armour and your enemy is stronger, with more innate abilities?
but they're said to be lazy.
This is a good reminder to me as a writer. Often I feel as though I impose "hard" limits on the capabilities of characters. In the magic system in When Nightmares Wake it uses a manna like system where spells cost energy, and at the other end of the realism spectrum in The Captive the character is limited by their understanding. These are limits which are beyond the control of the character. However something like laziness is an excellent self-imposed weakness. Certainly it's something most reader's can relate to.
they cannot be trusted unless they're afraid of you, and then not far.
Jordan does a marvelous job in painting an idealistic picture of Rand's life. He continues to build on the solid character of Rand, without compromising his adolescent characteristics. It turns up the tension with the attack and the unanswered questions about Tam.

Henry Loving, owner of Lee's Famous Recipe Chicken in Richmond, Va., saw his workers getting hurt by high-cost payday loans, so he found them an alternative.

Even in a strong economy, many Americans live paycheck to paycheck. Forty percent don't have $400 to cover an emergency expense, such as a car repair. And many working-class people turn to payday loans or other costly ways to borrow money. But more companies are stepping in to help their workers with a much cheaper way to get some emergency cash.
Startup companies that offer better options for workers are partnering with all kinds of businesses — from giants like Walmart to little fried chicken restaurants.
"This is where it all happens; this is kitchen here," says cook Keith Brown as he walks past the ovens and big bowls of flour at Lee's Famous Recipe Chicken in Richmond, Va. He and the crew are gearing up for the lunchtime rush.
The restaurant owner, Henry Loving, noticed over the years that many of his workers here were getting burned. Not with fry oil, but by high-cost loans they would get stuck in.
"You know, a lot of times the folks that I have working for me are tight on money and they'll go out and do payday loans or something like that," says Loving. "And by the time I get wind of it, it's too late and they're in all kinds of extra hard trouble trying to get that paid off."
Brown remembers how a few years ago, his brother was in the hospital and he needed to get to New York to see him. So he took out a high-interest-rate payday loan for $400.
"I got the loan. But it kept me in the hole and I had to continue to get loans and maybe for about three or four months to pay it back," says Brown. He says by the time he finally paid all the money and interest back, "I end up paying double the money I had got. I actually paid about $900 back before it was over."
Loving says sometimes he would lend employees money himself, just to help them get out from under these loans. "They are embarrassed to ask, but they'll come to me, and I mean otherwise they'll end up homeless or have to move out of state."
So when Loving heard about a company called PayActiv, a tech startup that helps companies get their workers emergency cash for very small fees, "I thought to myself, now that's a good idea," he says. And he signed up.
Safwan Shah, the founder and CEO of PayActiv, says the need out there is huge because so many Americans are paying very high fees and interest when they're short on cash.
"Our data analysis showed that it was close to $150 a month being paid by the working poor — per employee or per hourly worker in this country," says Shah. "That's a substantial sum of money because it's about $1,800 or $2,000 a year."
Think about that for a minute. According to the Federal Reserve, 40 percent of Americans don't have $400 in savings to fix their water heater or some other emergency. But Shah says they're spending around $2,000 a year on fees and interest to get emergency short-term cash. He thought this was a problem that needed fixing.
Shah also realized that often people don't need to borrow very much money. And he says that actually workers have usually already earned the cash they need because they have worked far enough into the pay period. They just haven't been paid yet.
"And so we said the problem is really a between-paychecks problem," says Shah.
His PayActiv company lets workers get access to that money they have already earned. So at many companies now — including Lee's Famous Recipe Chicken and the country's biggest private sector employer, Walmart — workers download an app to their phone. It's linked to PayActiv and to the payroll system of the employer.
"So let's say they've already earned $900" by earning $100 a day for nine days, says Shah. But payroll is still five days away and they need the money right away. Shaw says they open the app and "they will see a number which is half of the amount they have earned that is accessible to them."
So if they need $400 for a car repair or a trip to visit a sick brother, they tap a few buttons and the money gets zapped to their checking account or a prepaid card. And the fee is $5. (Some employers pay the fee or a portion of it.) And a lot of workers are deciding that's a much better option than getting stuck in a cycle of debt with costly payday loans.
The app also has some creative ways to nudge employees to build up savings accounts so they're not chronically strapped for cash. The system uses some techniques rooted in behavioral economics. Shah says it asks workers to put, say, two hours of pay a week into savings, because workers respond better to that than to a dollar amount.
Such tools are important, of course, because the problem companies like PayActiv are trying to address is not just one of workers not getting paid in time to pay some bills. It's a more complicated problem involving the difficulty so many Americans face of managing and staying on top of their finances amid all the other challenges of daily life.
"Quite candidly, most of America is living paycheck to paycheck and that's not a socioeconomic problem, that's an American problem," says Daniel Eckert, a Walmart senior vice president. "That spans multiple socioeconomic classes whether you're an hourly associate or a management associate."
He says Walmart's approach combines PayActiv's system with an app called Even that helps people better manage their money.
"I really think it's game-changing," says Laura Scherler, the director of financial stability and success at the United Way. She says some other companies work with employers to offer workers actual loans — more than just an advance on hours they've already worked. Those get paid back over longer periods of time with interest.
Consumer advocates say employers should be careful to make sure that their workers are getting a good deal. But Scherler says there are good lower-cost loan options. "There seems to be a couple of things coming together right now that makes this really exciting. I think employers are increasingly aware that financial stress impacts their workers."
And workers seem very aware of that too. More than 100 companies have now signed up with PayActiv. A Walmart executive says there has been an "extraordinary" response from employees. More than 200,000 Walmart workers are now using the system.
To another story now. Forty percent of Americans don't have $400 to cover emergency expenses such as car repairs. Some people turn to payday loans or other costly ways to borrow money. But now, as NPR's Chris Arnold reports, companies are stepping in to help their workers with a much cheaper way to get some emergency cash.
CHRIS ARNOLD, BYLINE: More companies these days are offering this kind of help from giants like Walmart down to little fried chicken restaurants.
KEITH BROWN: This is where it all happens. This is the kitchen here.

My Mother's Smile, 2002
A young boy named Leonardo (Alberto Mondini) distractedly paces outside his home within view of his quizzical mother Irene (Jacqueline Lustig) as he seemingly conducts an impassioned conversation with himself. Distressed by the overwhelming concept of an omniscient God (an idea that he has recently learned during his religion study hour at school) from whom he cannot escape and therefore, can never be truly free, Leonardo attempts to drive God away with his childish obstinacy, prompting Irene to enlist the aid of her estranged husband Ernesto (Sergio Castellitto) to help his son reconcile with the seemingly disquieting ramification of the absence of free will in a God-created universe. However, Irene's well-intentioned request invariably proves counterproductive as the atheistic Ernesto instead offers up his own vision of death, heaven, and the meaning of eternity to his impressionable son: one that is predicated on reaching an age of maturity to decide which life moment to immortalize rather than striving for a state of grace and redemption. Nevertheless, Ernesto's expedient answers to issues of faith cannot be so readily dispensed when he is requested to attend the second hearing for his mother's canonization by a Vatican emissary – a petition for which he had not been involved and whose progress had been intentionally concealed from him by his family – so that he may provide testimony on the nebulous circumstances surrounding his mother's purported martyrdom. Years earlier, his mother had been stabbed to death by his mentally unstable brother Egidio who has testified that she was asleep at the time of the attack and refuses to recant. On the other hand, his brothers Ettore (Gigio Alberti), a converted Catholic, and Eugenio (Lino Bonanni), a monsignor who has dedicated most of his life to overseas missionary work, assert that their mother was killed in the act of trying to cure Egidio's blaspheming with forbearance and compassion. A miracle has already been attributed in her name: the curing of a mentally deranged man who pseudonymously calls himself Filippo Argenti (perhaps after a character in Dante Alighieri's The Divine Comedy: Inferno) after invoking her name in prayer. The path for his mother's canonization has been cleared, but only if Ernesto can break the impasse between his brothers and validate her virtuous attempts to silence her son's blasphemy.
Marco Bellocchio creates a richly textured, incisive, and provocative examination of outmoded faith, breakdown of family, and spiritual desolation in My Mother's Smile. From an early episode of Ernesto digitally embellishing – or more appropriately, defacing – a rendered image of Piazza Venezia on a computer in his multimedia studio, Bellocchio illustrates the integration of surreal imagery within a realist framework that visually reflects the characters' internal reality. Note the unrealistically sanitized re-enactment of the mother's stabbing for a photo shoot that presents the inherent contradiction between Ernesto's memories of his mother's human frailties and her recently cultivated reputation as a candidate saint, and also the curiously coincidental appearance of Leonardo's improbably beautiful religion teacher Diana Sereni (Chiara Conti) into Ernesto's life during hearings into his mother's canonization that alludes to feelings of self-doubt and perhaps even conspiracy. Furthermore, the film's incongruous – and often anachronistic – depiction of empty rituals and cultural traditions illustrate their seeming disconnection (if not irrelevance) from the everyday lives of ordinary people in contemporary society: the implicitly incestuous union between the church and the monarchists at a dinner party that underscores their history of consolidated power, elitism, and privilege; Ernesto's instruction to Leonardo on the proper way to make a habitual sign of the cross before a meal, the supplicants' genuflection on the staircase during their pilgrimage, and Ernesto's early morning duel with Count Bulla (Toni Bertorelli) that is absurdly carried out to preserve the semblance of social nobility rather than defeat an ideological enemy. In the end, it is this resigned (and trivialized) acceptance of religion as afterlife "insurance" and obligatory performance of empty rituals that is reflected in Diana's recited passage "That is not enough" from Russian poet Arseni Tarkovsky (father of Andrei Tarkovsky) to a skeptical Ernesto: a longing to find true spiritual transcendence beneath the seductive ornamentation and ostentatious display of meaningless articles of faith.

Quotes from Cast & Crew
"I seem to be getting a lot of things pushed my way that are strong women. It's like people see Hackers (1995) and they send me offers to play tough women with guns, the kind who wear no bra and a little tank top. I'd like to play strong women who are also very feminine."

In this radiant, highly anticipated debut, a cast of unforgettable women battle for independence while a maelstrom of change threatens their Jamaican village.
Capturing the distinct rhythms of Jamaican life and dialect, Nicole Dennis- Benn pens a tender hymn to a world hidden among pristine beaches and the wide expanse of turquoise seas. At an opulent resort in Montego Bay, Margot hustles to send her younger sister, Thandi, to school. Taught as a girl to trade her sexuality for survival, Margot is ruthlessly determined to shield Thandi from the same fate. When plans for a new hotel threaten their village, Margot sees not only an opportunity for her own financial independence but also perhaps a chance to admit a shocking secret: her forbidden love for another woman. As they face the impending destruction of their community, each woman—fighting to balance the burdens she shoulders with the freedom she craves—must confront long-hidden scars. From a much-heralded new writer, Here Comes the Sun offers a dramatic glimpse into a vibrant, passionate world most outsiders see simply as paradise.

"Here Comes the Sun, like its main character Margot, stuns at every turn, especially when you think you have it figured out. It's about women pushed to the edge, Jamaica in all its beauty and fury and more than anything else, a story that was just waiting to be told." –Marlon James, author of A Brief History of Seven Killings

Wow! Don't take this book to read on a vacation at a resort in a third world country. This story will make you look at the local people in a whole different light. While we are enjoying the sun and cocktails there is another world beyond those walls. This story will take us into the lives of three Jamaican women. Delores and her two daughters will sneak their way into your thoughts long after this book is set aside. When I first started this story I had a difficult time with the Jamaican accent that is used with some of the characters. However, once you get further into the story the transition becomes more smooth and you hardly notice it. I loved that each character had a strong voice in the story and there is something special about each one. This is a book that looks at the dark side of what tourism can do to a small town and the people that live there. It is not a light beach read but a beauty if you like to sink your teeth into something more substantial.
Aerion W, Librarian
What an amazing book! This book captured so many different themes that can be problematic to all people, but especially people of color is desperate and dire situations. The problems of intergenerational damage, the cycle of hurting those around you as a result of you being hurt, the cycle of poverty, environmental racism, modern day colonialism, colorism, homophobia stigmas against women in Jamaica. This book was just everything. Like others have said, do not let the cover of this book make you think this book is some fun island adventure because it is not. But it is a true and realistic story of the types of real life experiences you would find in families and black people all over the world. READ THIS BOOK
Ipek A, Reviewer
What a read! Nicole Dennis-Benn introduces three women with strong voices, secrets and struggles that will stay in your thoughts long after the book is finished. With seemingly sunny Jamaica as the backdrop, a portrait of poverty, racism and sexism is painted. In a lot of ways this is a dark book that you can't really let go.

Perfect for delicate ethical situations, this resignation letter is best for political figures who have to step down due to indiscretions.
I've resigned as press secretary to Senator (name) and as of today's date will not be receiving payment from the campaign fund. Simultaneously, I'm ending my work with the Political Action Committee (name).
My plans for the future are solely to attempt to repair my relationship with my spouse and to focus on our children. I love them all dearly, and no other venture is more deserving of my attention.


"Thick and plush, with muscular tannins and rich fruit, this modern red shows blackberry, currant, licorice, hoisin sauce and vanilla flavors.

The Gogo boot isn't just a Twist, it's a power move of epic proportions. Crafted with love in Peru, these showstoppers feature angular patent leather trim, a dramatic topline and the subtlest little toe ridge for extra oomph. With these in your collection, you'll always have a solid plus one in your back pocket. Twist your mind, trust your heart, get in your groove.
These just arrived in the mail and to my utter disappointment - they are too small. Usually Fluevog provides such good sizing advice online and I have a few pairs of the twists that I never thought twice. Think twice and try before you buy. Also if you have a high instep these take some work to get into. Have NEVER had to return a pair of Fluevogs, gasp!
Bought these boots about a month ago. First time I wore them out for dinner the pointed toe on one boot ripped. Second time I wore them the toe on the other boot ripped. Shipped them to Toronto for repair. Staff at distillery store called and they said this was normal wear and tear, and they are just polishing them and sending them back to me. No warranty. Said this is normal for pointy boots, and they are at least 75% better. Very disappointed!!! There was no warning from the store in Minneapolis where I bought them to take extra care. I would not have bought them otherwise. I have other Fluevog shoes and a friend has several pair of boots and we have never had any issues like this. For close to $500 after US exchange was paid, I expected much better service. Will not be buying from JF again.
I just bought the gogo and they are beautifully elegant, leather is super soft, they fit true to their size. There is only one "but": the leather is very very thin and scrapes off way too easily for the amount of money they cost. Be very careful when you wear them outside because of that. They are better for carpeted indoor areas if you want a long life out of them.
The boot I never knew I always needed!
Carrie in the DC Georgetown store made all my boot dreams come true! These run true to size (I tend to wear an 8-8.5 in most shoes). I also wear 8.5 in Cubist and Nap boots but a 9 in Mitchell. So give those pointy boots a shot, the first wear they need a break in, but they go with 199% everything. I don't need the shoe horn due to the awesome little loop VOG included on the back. I have Valentino boots that cost twice as much in the same shape that are less comfortable and go with less things. You can't go wrong with these stunners. The black will go with everything you own forever. Carrie- THANK YOU!

STEP in through the glazed door. Drop off your bags then park in the lower car park. We have wash-down facilities and secure storage for bikes.
PREPARE nibbles and drinks or cook a romantic meal. Everything you need is in the fully equipped kitchen, fridge with freezer box, three-way microwave combination oven and washing machine dryer.
LAUNCH yourself onto the super-sized sofa and start to relax. If you are staying in, draw the curtains, light the log stove and dim the lights. Later, retire up the stairs, take a last look through the owl hole at the setting sun and climb into your king-size bed.
FRESHEN up after a day in the wilds or before heading out for that special evening with an invigorating rain shower. Enjoy the warm heated slate under your feet and feel the heated fluffy towels. There is a steam-free, lighted mirror so nothing will be missed.
WAKE UP and sit at the dining table enjoying the beautiful view and plan your day. So much choice: walks from the door, a wander around the medieval village of Cartmel, lunch at a famous restaurant or just a soak in the hot tub.
SIT OUTSIDE with your coffee in the morning sun listening to the sound of the countryside all around you. Later, hide round the corner on the stone bench, pour a glass of wine and enjoy the wonderful view up the field in the afternoon and evening sun.

Q: How to make my whole project responsive by using both percentages and pixels on css? I need to make html/css/javascript website responsive.
I read a lot about using percentages instead of pixels. But the thing is, I already used 250+ px's in my css. Is there any way to fix this without changing them all into percentages and using the @media query?
Some examples of my code:
.main-image {
  height: 100px;
}

footer {
  position: fixed;
  height: 50px;
}

.dropdown-content {
  list-style-type: upper-roman;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 40px;
}

nav a.admin_page {
  float: right;
  font-size: 1.5em;
  padding: 14px 30px;
  border: none;
}

.text {
  color: #f2f2f2;
  font-size: 20px;
  padding: 8px 12px;
  position: absolute;
  bottom: 8px;
  width: 50%;
  margin-left: 300px;
  text-align: center;
  background-color: #80af2b;
}

As you can see I used a lot of px's for different. Is there any easy way to fix this?


You can fulfill Alaska's business registration requirements by downloading and filling out forms and applications available on the state's Division of Corporations, Business and Professional Licensing website. The website also provides information about filing fees and about which business transactions trigger the registration requirement. For example, Alaska law doesn't require registration for activities such as maintaining bank accounts, holding meetings or filing a lawsuit in the state. Activities like opening a store or hiring employees would likely require registration.
Each business structure has its own registration requirements, and out-of-state corporations must apply for a Certificate of Authority. You can submit your application online or by mail. Applications must include the business's name, which must comply with Alaska's legal requirements. You also must include the physical address of a registered agent in Alaska, typically the person to whom the state can send official notices and who can be served with legal paperwork should your corporation be sued. The application also must include information about the number of authorized shares, number of issued shares and the names and mailing addresses of your corporation's directors and officers.
Registration requirements for a limited liability company are similar to the requirements for a corporation. You must apply for a Certificate of Registration. Your LLC's name must contain the words "limited liability company" or an appropriate abbreviation, and you must include your LLC's legal name on your application. Like an application for a Certificate of Authority, you must include information about your business in its home state -- such as the date you incorporated your business -- the name and address of your registered agent in Alaska and the names and addresses of your members or manager.
Your business may not be able to use its legal name when operating in Alaska if its name is the same as a business already registered in the state. This doesn't mean you can't conduct business there; you can register an assumed name for your business, although assumed names can create additional costs and hassle. You may wish to reserve your corporate business name with the state even if you aren't yet ready to conduct business there. To reserve a name, you must file a Foreign Corporate Name Registration form, which must include a certificate of good standing from your corporation's home state or U.S. territory.

Thank you very much. I am so lucky I saw it before the crowds became insane. The town had to shut the place down on Sunday. So many people live in SoCal!
Ah, another gorgeous thing to behold. One could easily follow blooms all over the world!
That would be a true pilgrimage.
incredible. I was down that way, not that long ago myself-but before the bloom. By the way, did you happen to see a ton of butterflies down there?
Yes, I saw the beginning of the Painted Lady migration, which was astonishing. They were flying so straight that it was clear they were on a mission! Estimates are in the millions, possibly a billion! Wow, so amazing to see.
Honest to goodness, I think I would be so excited I'd wet my pants. Breathtaking..and giving, I suppose.
Yes, nature can be so amazing.
As spectacular as they are in that region, they used to be just as spectacular over a much larger region. Sadly, they are getting crowded out by invasive exotic specie. I can remember when the hills south of San Jose used to bloom like this.
It was evident that human development is encroaching on a lot of wild land in CA. So many people!!
Nowadays, encroachment extends more into desert regions, such as the Antelope Valley, where California poppies had been safer from invasive exotic plant species.
Here is another blog that I enjoy very much. Check out here recent post regarding the extraordinary bloom of poppies in Southern California.
What a stunning sight to behold.
It truly was – thanks, Alison!
Wow – how utterly gorgeous!
Disregard my question on your recent post. Wow!! Just wow!!!
Ooooh! So glad to have a slideshow of this to enjoy. I saw the pictures from space, but it's nice to see a bit (make that a lot) closer.
Thanks, Susan. Glad you enjoyed the tour. I took hundreds of photos – I couldn't help myself!
Beautifully penned, Lim, thank you!
Thank you. I have added another three lines.
California wildflowers brought by the rains.
Thank you for reblogging, Suzanne.
A big state with lots to see, drought or no drought. Many diverse eco systems in this state; mountains, desert, coastal rainforest, grasslands, etc.
I have long loved the California Poppy, although I have never see it in such wonderful quantity.
Billions in bloom is definitely an amazing sight to see.
So beautiful. I lived in San Raphael when I was in HS. California has so many beautiful places, such as this.
Thank you, Kathy. CA is a beautiful state with many wild places to balance out the urban sprawl. The traffic always amazes me!
You must have been in awe standing there with wide open views of these wildflowers?
Thank you, Holly. It truly was an awesome 180 degree view of miles and miles of flowers. I only regret that the area has since suffered a lot of damage due to trampling, where folks left the road and went into the flowers. The damage will last for years. Sad, but many don't understand just how fragile the habitat is.
Great images. What a great time to visit there!
Thank you, Maria. I really lucked out in my timing, so pleased to see this!

Q: Removing XElements in a foreach loop So, I have a bug to remove
foreach (XElement x in items.Elements("x"))
{
    XElement result = webservice.method(x);

    if (/*condition based on values in result*/)
    {
        x.Remove();
    }
}

The problem is that calling x.Remove() alters the foreach such that if there are two Elements("x"), and the first is removed, the loop doesn't get to the second x element.
So how should I be looping this?  Or should this be rewritten another way?

A: I suspect that Linq may be able to help you out here as follows.
using System.Linq;

void foo()
{
    items.Elements("x")
         .Where(x => condition(webservice.method(x)))
         .Remove();
}

If that doesn't work (i.e. the internal enumerator is still invalidated), make a shallow copy of the selected elements and delete them as follows.
using System.Linq;

void foo()
{
    List xElements = items.Elements("x")
                          .Where(x => condition(webservice.method(x)))
                          .ToList();

    for (int i = xElements.Count - 1; i > -1; i--)
    {
        xElements[i].Remove();
    }
}

A: Create a collection before the loop logic, add the elements to be removed to the new collection, then call the items.Remove on each element in the new collection.

A: Try it without a for instead of the foreach.

MotoGP: Silverstone update on British Grand Prix refunds
British Grand Prix hosts Silverstone have issued an update to fans on refunds for last weekend's cancelled race, telling ticket buyers that they're working on issuing refunds as soon as possible.
Speaking in the statement posted online, they said:
We just wanted to keep you up to date and let you know that the discussions regarding your compensation for the cancellation of race day at the GoPro British Grand Prix MotoGP are still in progress. Tomorrow's 2019 MotoGP presale has been postponed until further notice.
Please be assured we will be contacting you as soon as we have further information. Once again, we do thank you for your continued patience and understanding. If you purchased your tickets through a third-party ticket agent, please contact the agent directly as they are the team handling your booking.
Once again, we're deeply sorry that the event was cancelled and hope to see you back at the circuit very soon.
Speaking exclusively to MCN, Silvertone boss Stuart Pringle confirmed that they're hoping to be able to pass more information onto fans in 'days not weeks,' but admitted that the matter was out of their hands as they liaise with their event insurance company. For more, see tomorrow Wednesday 5th September's Motor Cycle News.
