Signs, signs, signs… in some places there are so many signs telling you what you can't do you start to wonder how you ever managed on your own.
There are a number of signs you need to display, the law ensures that licences, health & safety, smoke-free law, cctv, security, price-lists and other signage must be displayed. What you add to this already crowded field, can make the difference between your sales message getting through and patronising your customers.
Think about the wording on your signs, the best and most effective signs I have ever seen tend to use humour to get their message across. If a smile comes to your face when you are being told not to do something, you are likely to abide by the sign and take it in good humour.
Patronising can be even more destructive to your business; it amazes me the number of places I go and see signs saying 'Please do not stand in front of the fire exit. Keep Clear!!'; as if somehow when the alarm goes off you are going to stop people leaving… I like being stood in front of the fire exit, it means I am the first one out.
'Please do not place furniture in front of this exit' at least makes sense, but is it really necessary?
If your staff training in Fire Safety is up to scratch a member of your team will notice if the exit is blocked and go over and politely explain the situation. This is a double whammy it makes the customer realise that you take their safety seriously and allows your staff to give a quick explanation of the reason rather than 'barking' at your customers from a sign (usually with a tacky clip art symbol included…).

Now that Americans are permitted to visit Cuba after this Caribbean nation was out of bounds for many years, tourism is booming. There are many reasons to check out this once-forbidden destination.
The relationship between the USA and Cuba is changing rapidly. Americans are now permitted to travel to Cuba and American Airlines announced in January that it would be offering commercial flights to Cuba as soon as possible. Other companies quickly followed suit, including Iberia, JetBlue Airways and Air France.
Carnival Corp cruises has been granted a license from the U.S. Treasury Department and it plans to operate a bi-weekly cruise to Cuba departing to Miami. Also, direct flights from Orlando to Havana have begun in July, offered by Island Travel and Tours. The Cuban Embassy in Washington and the US Embassy in Havana, Cuba recently re-opened for the first time in 54 years.
With so much changing in recent times, many Americans are flocking to visit Cuba and see what this beautiful Caribbean island nation has to offer. Americans are permitted to visit for several approved reasons, with cultural and educational travel being one of the options. Cuba has a lot of fascinating cultural attractions to offer, including historic buildings, art galleries, museums and much more.
There many reasons to visit Cuba, from the bright and colourful festivals to the delicious local food to the lively nightlife and the friendly people. Cuba is also becoming a popular eco-tourism location as it offers several beautiful natural parks including Parque Nacional Pico Turquino and National Park Alejandro de Humboldt. Literature buffs will enjoy visiting the home where Ernest Hemingway lived for nearly 20 years. Also, American travellers are now allowed to bring home a limited amount of Cuban cigars and other products – which offers yet another reason to plan a trip.
Another reason to visit Cuba now is to take the chance to see the country before it is changed by the influx of American tourism. Right now it has been untouched by capitalism for more than 50 years, but in the future it might become more modernized and developed – changing the unique and authentic Cuban culture forever.

Would you like your health records online?
The debate over the electronic My Health Record system is one that is heating up and sharply dividing grey nomad opinion.
With Australians being given until October to opt out of the system if they choose to do so, the chief concerns of the 'opter-outers' centre around data security and the fact that My Health Record simply isn't used widely enough yet to be effective and useful.
However, there is also a general acknowledgement that, in theory, grey nomads and other interstate travellers are among the groups who could benefit the most from a well-used and efficient electronic health record system.
A study conducted by researchers from the Illawarra Health and Medical Research Institute and University of Wollongong in New South Wales found that seniors with chronic health conditions had poor continuity of care on their travels.
The project included an online survey and follow-up phone interviews with those aged over 60 travelling with a chronic condition.
While all grey nomads will carefully weigh up the pros and cons of the system before deciding whether to make the effort to opt out or not, there is no doubt that many millions of extra Australians will find themselves automatically signed up to My Health Record in October.
And there is a hope in government circles and elsewhere that that in itself will help iron out some of the not inconsiderable teething troubles the system has been experiencing.
First, we don't have anything in our health records that we care about who does or doesn't see them, they are just about health records, not wealth records.
Second, for any system to work it needs to be used – if we opt out it won't be used and won't be made the best it can possibly be.
The system can only work with doctor participation. We have travelled for six years and have even had medical staff tell us that they 'can't be bothered with it because they're too busy to inpu info.' The system needs to be streamlined and user friendly. The concept would certainly assist travellers Australia wide.
It is a Health not wealth system, not sure what you mean, it is a collection of highly prized personal identifiable information, criminals use this to steal your identity and then drain you financially.
The system is flawed and the changes proposed now make the system even more flawed. The system is now outdated. As travellers surely you have smart devices, your information can easily be held or your smart phone, loose it and a simple process and you can remotely wipe your phones data and simply restore on a new device.

Be a knight at the Râșnov Citadel
Eva Poteaca
One of my favorite holiday activities is to visit historical monuments that are well-preserved and give me the feeling of what it was like to live hundreds of years ago. The Râșnov Citadel is one of those places where people can experience what was it like to be a knight in medieval times. It is one of the best preserved defensive structures from Romania mainly because of its location, on top of a huge hillside near the city of Brașov and surrounded by thick forests booming with wildlife.
Râșnov Citadel
Cetatea Râșnov, Râșnov 505400, Roumanie
The Râșnov Citadel is actually a medieval fortress built at the beginning of the 13th century by the Teutonic Knights, but there are the traces of structures that date from the prehistoric and Dacian period. The defenses evolved with the times as there where many invasions, so the people retreated into the citadel on top of the hill, and they could stay there for the extended periods of time.

The first incursion was during the Tatar invasion in the 14th century, where Râșnov and Brașov where the only cities that couldn't be conquered. In 1600, the Turks defeated Mihai Viteazul (Michael the Brave), the ruler of Wallachia and Moldavia, but he retreated to the Râșnov Citadel because he knew they couldn't conquer it. The only time this city was conquered was in 1612, by Gabriel Bathory the ruler of Transylvania, and this event only took place because he stopped the fresh water supply. A fire and an earthquake destroyed the parts of the citadel in the 18th century.
The legends behind the Râșnov Citadel
There are almost always a few legends behind every citadel and Râșnov is no exception. The 17th century was the time of the Turkish invasions, and the defense became more and more important. This is why large quantities of grain, gunpowder and weapons started being stored here. But there was another problem - the water. In order to ensure the survival during a siege, a huge well was built. Its construction took over 17 years, ending in 1640. The legend has it that the fountain was constructed by two Turkish prisoners, with the promise of being released after the well was built. But the promise wasn't kept, and the two prisoners were thrown into the well. The prisoners managed to escape by digging a way out, and this is how the famous tunnel that led to the hill was excavated.

If you are passionate about medieval activities, there are a few to be done here. If you are eager to enjoy a walk in order to reach the citadel, a breath-taking landscape awaits you. But if you want to get to the citadel faster or are in a rush, you can opt for the panoramic elevator with a route 165 meters long and a one-and-a-half-minute ride. Being a true medieval enthusiast, you may try the archery or riding a horse, I think the landscape is just perfect for that. Paintball games, bungee jumping or a helicopter tour, are other activities one can enjoy here daily.

There is no doubt that one can enjoy being a knight at the Râșnov Citadel. The surroundings are also worth visiting, near the Râșnov Citadel are the famous Dino Park Râșnov, the Peleș Castel and the Bran Castel, where one can detect Dracula.

Olympic lovebirds have a quandary that mere mortals do not when it comes to ranking the best day of their lives: "getting engaged" or "winning a medal"? This year, a handful have decided they'd rather not choose, and combined both events into one eventful day.
The latest to take on the Olympic engagement is Will Claye, an American track and field athlete. He won a silver medal in the triple jump on Tuesday, then climbed into the stands to propose to his girlfriend, hurdler Queen Harrison (who competed in Beijing in 2008 but didn't qualify this time around).
Earlier this week, bronze medalist Qin Kai proposed to his girlfriend, silver medalist He Zi (both divers from China). Other proposals took place after a rugby match and a walking race.
Harrison sported her new diamond ring along with a "Will Power" tee-shirt. It's hard to tell in pictures, but based on social media photos, it looks like Harrison's ring may even match Claye's medal: silver.


This boost converter is for those with moderate electronics experience.
This circuit only takes up 1 5/8″ x 1 1/4″ x 1″ and can operate from 8.4V to 31.2V and output maximum of 500V safely. I recommend using at least a 12V battery.
Each test was done 5 times, the best of which is shown.
Alkaline can be used, but I strongly recommend Rechargeable high current rated batteries.
Lower Voltages May be used, but expect a Lower Power Output.
Drawing too much current from your batteries may reduce there capacity, life, and cause your battery to over heat, Monitor Your Batteries temperature. If using LiPoly please use a battery protector or protection circuit. If this circuit fails it can short and cause the LiPoly battery to over heat and catch fire.

The California State Legislature recently passed AB 1121, authored by Assemblyman Mike Davis (D-Los Angeles), which will allow 10 general law cities to participate in a pilot project that would grant them to use instant runoff voting.
Moreover, this bill will permit these general law jurisdictions the same rights that charter cities now possess in regard to holding an instant runoff election.
"In these economically challenging times, it's a measure to help local governments save money; and it can help produce more people participating in the election process," said Davis.
Instant runoff voting is when voters rank candidates in an order of their preference. If no candidate receives first preference by a majority of voters, the candidate with the fewest number of first preference rankings is eliminated. That candidate's ballots are redistributed to the remaining candidates according to the next ranking on each ballot.
This process is repeated until one candidate obtains a majority of votes among all the candidates that have not been eliminated. Its intended goals are to eliminate costly runoff elections that can sometimes take place months after the original election if one person running does not receive the needed majority.
Robert Dickinson, Executive Vice President for Californians for Election Reform, which was the main sponsor of AB 1121, said the benefits of Instant Runoff Voting far outweigh the traditional runoff process.
Dickinson provided a startling example of how the traditional runoffs can have detrimental ends.
"In Los Angeles, they had a series of local runoff elections that cost $5 million and only had 6 percent voter turnout," said Dickinson.
Los Angeles County does not currently have instant runoff voting, but Davis said because they are a charter city, they have power to develop it.
"Mark Ridley Thomas has proposed an ordinance that will hopefully give LA County this opportunity," said Davis.
A shining area of where this method has worked in California is San Francisco.
According to Californians for Election Reform, San Francisco saw an overall estimated effective tripling of voter participation as a result of using ranked voting (as well as the benefits of being able to combine two elections into a single election) and as much as a quadrupling of turnout among minority and low-income neighborhoods.
For an analysis of how Instant Runoff Voting led to significant improvements in voter turnout in San Francisco, see: http://www.sfrcv.org/reports/turnout.pdf.
"In the end, with traditional runoff elections you're spending a lot of money but not getting a lot of democratic benefits," said Dickinson.
Assembly Bill 1121 may be the beginning of a long process in seeing this voting method implemented all across the state.
Fresno County Registrar Victor Salazar had similar sentiments.
AB1121 received positive reviews from some prominent local government entities. The League of California Cities endorsed the bill and testified on its behalf. A similar bill from last session, AB1294, received support from the City Clerks Association of California.
According to Californians for Election Reform, AB1121 is important in that most local jurisdictions are not able to use ranked voting systems under current law, regardless of the wishes of the governing body of those jurisdictions or the wishes of a majority of voters in those jurisdictions.
Currently, only charter counties or charter cities can use Instant Runoff Voting, but over three-fourths of cities and counties are general law jurisdictions and don't have the option. Over half of Californians live in a general law city, a general law county, or both.
"Instant Runoff Voting provides a lot of local governments the opportunity to save a substantial amount of money when a lot of local governments are struggling," said Dickinson.
However, instant runoff voting does not come without its naysayers.
Some disagree with the Instant Runoff Voting format, stating the traditional simple plurality method is good enough. Many well-known American leaders, such as Abraham Lincoln, did not receive a majority of the vote when he was elected.
The other side also argues that this format violates the one-person, one-vote mandate, and actually cost localities more money when they have to implement the new software and equipment, voter education, testing, staffing, consultants, ballot printing and postage costs.
"We can evaluate the potential success of this through the pilot project," said Davis. "We hope that as a result of the implement of this that more cities will discover that it is a measure that will increase participation and be cost saving.

Drag Me to Hell review
It's not necessarily true that all horror movies these days are sequels, remakes, torture porn or some combination of the three, but it certainly feels that way. This year alone has seen a 3-D remake of My Bloody Valentine, a reboot of Friday the 13th and The Last House on the Left. In a few months, there'll be new sequels to Cabin Fever, Saw, Wrong Turn and The Descent (one of the more original horror flicks of 2005), and fresh stabs at The Wolfman and Night of the Demons, not to mention a sequel to Rob Zombie's remake of Halloween. Almost universally, the remakes in particular are darker, nastier and a whole lot less fun than the originals.
Granted, this is nothing new to the genre. Anyone raised on the slasher flicks of the '80s and early '90s should be well accustomed to series that carry on well past the point of ridiculousness. Still, it's always nice to see someone buck the trend.
That someone is Sam Raimi, the man behind Evil Dead, Army of Darkness and, most recently, the decidedly non-frightening Spider-Man series. His return to horror, Drag Me to Hell, is exactly the kind of movie that got folks like me into the genre in the first place.
From the '80s-style Universal logo that opens the picture to the reliance on practical effects and sound design over CGI effects (for the most part), Raimi's latest makes it clear that it's part of a grand tradition of horror movies. Unlike the recent spate of remakes that take those classics and give them a soulless sheen, though, Drag Me to Hell remembers that the horror flicks of decades past were still fun. Yes, people die grizzly deaths and jump-scares and sinister music get your heart racing, but it's done without the weird prurience that can leave crowds feeling dirty when the picture ends.
Darkness has its place, especially in horror, and sequelitis isn't likely to stop any time soon, but it's nice to have a reminder of what made the genre so appealing in the first place. Now if only that other goofy-horror-fan-turned-credible-director would come back to the genre. The world doesn't need The Hobbit half as much as we need another Dead Alive.

East by North East is a Youth Music funded project led by GemArts and working in partnership with the Sage Gateshead, CHAT Trust, North Benwell Youth Project, Excelsior Academy, Benfield School, Life Transformation Church and Gateshead Council's Resettlement Team.
The project provides high quality weekly music making opportunities for more than 170 young people from the BAME, refugee, asylum seeker and wider communities, based in the West and East end of Newcastle and Gateshead. As well as developing participant skills, East by North East also focuses on further developing the skills of local music leaders to meet the demands of culturally diverse communities, as well as using music as a creative intervention to address issues.
Find out more about the project through two short videos about East by North East.
The project began in 2013, and since then East by North East has been recognised as an ambitious, leading example of partnership work, delivering alternative music making provision for young people who previously had no access to opportunities of this type. The young people working on the project have developed not only new music making skills, but improved confidence and in some cases developed English language skills through this work. More than 30 young people have already achieved Bronze Arts Award, a nationally recognised qualification which documents the hard work they put into the project and how far they have come along the process, and many more completed portfolios in 2018. GemArts East by North East partnerships continue to offer opportunities, develop skills and bring attention to the enormous talent coming from both the young people and the music practicioners working on East by North East.
Through East by North East young people work alongside regional musicians to develop their musical talents and build confidence in their own music making ability. The project champions creativity and diversity, and demonstrates the significant positive impact music making has on children and young people from all backgrounds, and what can be achieved when cultural organisations, community groups and mainstream education collaborate in the interest of a common vision.
The third phase of East by North East began in Spring 2018. Please read music leaders Izzy Finch and Kay Greyson's blogs about their work on the project.
Watch this space and GemArts Blog for more updates.
GemArts created a special CD and DVD pack to mark the achievements of participants, artists and all partners, presented at a very special presentation event for participants and their families. A copy of the CD DVD can be requested from info@gemarts.org.
Participants are also involved in ongoing workshops, professional performance events and certicate presentations, and particpants are also given the opportunity to perform live on stage infront of a packed crowd. The last East by North East celebration event took place at Sage Gateshead in April 2017 and the next celebration will be 16 & 17 April 2019.

Is there any ad network which supports unpublished (not on store) Android apps just like AdMob?
Discussion in 'Mobile Marketing' started by Peter Chan, Oct 16, 2016.
I have an unpublished Android app which is not on any store and will never be on it (don't ask me why). So I've been using AdMob and it's the only ad network I'm using now because I can monetize my app without publishing to Google Play. I found that the eCPM is not good enough so I tried to search for other ad networks.
So I'd like to ask is there any ad network supports unpublished app monetize (which means not on any store)? Will I get ad as well as payment? Will the revenue be affected? Please give me some suggestions. Thank you.

In this paper, an autoregressive (AR) channel model for simulating frequency selective channels in synchronized orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems is proposed. By frequency domain AR filtering, the number of Rayleigh processes for generating the channelfrequency response (CFR) is reduced. Thus, this model is able to achieve a low complexity.

On Body and Soul 2017 Full Movie Free Download Bluray HD Endre, a CFO at an abattoir, and Mária, the newly hired quality inspector, experience a recurring dream of being a pair of deer in the forest, though they are not aware that it is a shared dream.
Mária is immediately unpopular at work for her autistic behaviour and uncompromising grading of the abattoir's meat quality. Though Endre tries to befriend her, she quickly becomes uncomfortable with the interaction and rudely comments on his lame left arm. However, she repeats the conversation to herself that night, analyzing where she made her mistakes. Meanwhile, the abattoir hires a new butcher, Sanyi, who Endre takes a quick dislike to due to his cocky demeanor and unsympathetic view towards the slaughtered animals.
The abattoir is put under investigation when mating powder is stolen from the inventory; Endre and his friend Jenő both suspect that Sanyi is the culprit. A psychologist is hired to perform personality tests on the workers to discover the culprit. The workers are asked questions on the history of their sexuality and physical development, as well as what they dreamed the night before. When Endre and Mária both report the same dream, the psychologist assumes they are playing a prank. Though Endre and Mária are both skeptical, they realize that they are indeed experiencing the same dream and grow closer. Though Mária's behavior temporarily drives Endre away, they eventually form a tight bond. Endre also learns that Jenő stole the mating powder, but chooses not to inform the police as there are no victims, and he apologizes to Sanyi for suspecting him.


Ichthyosaurs and dolphins are the archetypal examples of convergent evolution in action, in which two completely unrelated species acquire near identical characteristics. The discovery of a new ichthyosaur fossil suggests this Jurassic-era creature was even more dolphin-like than we appreciated, featuring warm-blood, blubber, and even similar camouflage.
A remarkable 180-million-year-old fossil found in the Posidonia Shale Formation of southwestern Germany, of the species Stenopterygius ichthyosaur, is providing the best evidence yet that ichthyosaurs—ancient, dolphin-like marine reptiles—were warm-blooded creatures.
The preservation of the new fossil is so good, said lead researcher Johan Lindgren from Lund University in Sweden, that he was able to see outlines of the animal's original, flexible skin, along with evidence of blubber underneath. What's more, he and his colleagues were able to detect internal organs and, at the molecular scale, traces of cellular layers within the fossilised skin. It's now the first example of fossilised ichthyosaur blubber in the scientific literature, pointing to ichthyosaurs as warm-blooded, or endothermic, organisms.
Ichthyosaurs were contemporaneous to dinosaurs, but they were strikingly similar in appearance to modern toothed whales, most especially dolphins. Scientists suspected ichthyosaurs might be warm-blooded, based on estimates of their swimming speed, but this new discovery, the details of which were published yesterday in Nature, is the first to provide evidence in the form of fossilised subdermal soft-tissue.
In modern aquatic mammals, blubber, in addition to acting as an insulating layer against the cold, aids in buoyancy and serves as a fat store. Cold-blooded creatures, which tend to live in warm climates, don't really need it.
But unlike sea turtles, who lay eggs on the beach, ichthyosaurs gave birth to live young, which is associated with warm-bloodedness, according to Lindgren.
To study the fossil, Lindgren and his colleagues applied a multidisciplinary experimental approach to analyse both the structure and chemistry of the preserved soft parts. The researchers were able to identify cell-like microstructures, which held pigments within the animal's skin, and traces of internal organs, including the liver.
Countershading is also present in dolphins, serving as camouflage. In the case of ichthyosaurs, their countershading camouflage may have protected them from predators, like aerial pterosaurs from above, or aquatic pliosaurs from below, the researchers speculate.
Lindgren said his team "conducted the most comprehensive and in-depth investigation ever undertaken on a soft-tissue fossil," but admitted it was based on the analysis of a single individual. Future research "needs to be expanded to also include other specimens," he said.


Government Sports School Bangalore outplayed St. Joseph's BHH School, Calicut, Kerala 2-0 to keep their hopes for the final berth alive in the Final leg of the Mahindra Youth Football Challenge, played at the Bala Gangadharanatha Swamy International Residential School ground, Bangalore, on Wednesday.
Bangalore thus scored their first win from three games and face Don Bosco, Mumbai in a crucial encounter on Thursday, that will decide which of the two schools advance.
The Mumbai School scored a 2-0 win over CRPF, Delhi for their second win from three games.
Meanwhile Sukanta Nagar Vidya Niketan, Kolkata continued their formidable run, scoring their third big win from as many matches, and this time trouncing Infant Jesus High School, Goa 6-0 to virtually seal their berth in the final stage.
CRPF School, Delhi have lost all their three matches, the school from Kerala have one win, one draw and one loss, while the school from Goa has one win and two losses in the six-teams league.
The Mahindra Youth Football Challenge is the Mahindra Group's commitment to promote football at the grassroots level. The company has partnered with Scottish football giants, Celtic Football Club, who will take on the responsibility of training and developing young talent identified through the initiative.
The Bangalore team started the game as favorites and dominated proceedings from the word go. Within 10 minutes they were awarded a penalty for a handball in the box and Mani Maran, later adjudged the 'Star Performer' of the match, stepped up to score.
The Bangalore forwards were kept at bay for the rest of the first half but another goal was inevitable and it came in the 35th minute when Santosh M scored with a long ranger from outside the box, which left the Kerala keeper stranded.

2020 BMW M8 Competition Performance Review
Chris Atkinson takes the flagship BMW M8 Competition coupe around Queensland Raceway to see what it's made of.
Performance Editor
Fantastic engine with smooth, effortless power and torque
Very precise, direct front end
Great seating position for both comfort and support
Stability control very intrusive on the track
Oversteer chassis balance dominates the lap
Needs to shed some weight to be more track-focused
Chris Atkinson takes the flagship BMW M8 Competition coupe around Queensland Raceway to see what it's made of.
Overall Track Performance
The M8 Competition was definitely a challenge on the track! There are some great parts to this car, and you can see a lot of thought and really clever engineering has gone into it.
The challenge is translating that into track performance when there are a few clear obstacles. This car is a beast, in both good and bad ways, and I had my hands full trying to tame it.
Overall Road Performance
On the road the M8 Competition sounds fantastic, and the torque and power just drags you forward so easily. It's a big vehicle more suited to high-speed flowing roads rather than quick changes of direction.
Sitting in the car you feel really connected and part of the vehicle. The M8 Competition is at home as a grand touring machine.
The engine is really solid, as we experienced in the M550i xDrive. This version takes power up a notch to 460kW, but keeps the torque the same at 750Nm. It does everything really well: it's smooth, drivable, and responsive.
The sound is really epic as well, no complaints there. I do feel BMW could have upped the torque, though. I wonder what's holding it back in this regard, as I'm sure this engine is capable of more.
The straight-line difference between the M8 and the M550i wasn't huge, but this was also in part due to the much warmer day on which we tested. That will have had some effect on the engine performance, too.
Overall it's really hard to fault this engine and it's easy to see why BMW has used it across such a wide range of vehicles. It sounds great, performs well, and is user friendly.
The brakes are excellent and really consistent, which is exactly what you want on the track. I really liked the thought being put in with the ability to have a firmer pedal feel when you are in Sport mode.
To be honest, the difference isn't massive and probably doesn't have much of an impact on performance. It would be hard to take the brake pedal feel all the way to the level of a race car, but it shows BMW really is thinking of all the details in the M8 Competition.
I have to say it was very difficult for this car on the track. I can see why BMW did certain things, but in a way the M8 isn't really a complete package, and everything wasn't working in harmony.
There are a few things here that start to overlap and rather than complimenting each other, they actually fight each other.
The chassis is very pointy, the car really reacts to steering inputs – which is great. This is due to the geometry, alignment, suspension, and also the firmness of the racing-specification rose joints. So it ticked that box.
But I felt like the only way the rear would stay in line was with the help of stability control. I found the system way too conservative for how I wanted to drive, but in a way it had to be. Otherwise, you could quite easily watch the rear of the car pass you by when you arrive at the middle of the corner.
The problems get bigger, because the reactive front end wasn't balanced with a progressive rear. Instead, it was unbalanced by a very nervous and firm rear, which couldn't control the mass once it was moving.
In one way I complement BMW for taking this approach. Dialling cars towards understeer has long been a habit of manufacturers, to stop people entering the trees backwards when it goes wrong. But in my experience… I prefer going backwards into the trees.
Back to the issue at hand. This setup gives the car a very nice and precise front end, which is great on the road and up to 80 per cent, but it made the safety systems intervene the minute I started to push the limits.
After taking a few deep breaths and turning all systems off, I hit the track again. Straight away I had my fair share of moments, and I'm very glad I've been a rally driver for the past 20 years. With the M550i xDrive I was actually able to deal with these slides and get a great time out of the car. With the M8 it was harder put it together.
It's almost like a qualifying setup in a race car, and everything needs to be right to do the best lap time.
This setup can be inconsistent and hard on the tyres, causing the tyre pressures to rise quickly, which is something we noticed with this car.
Overall it's not a bad chassis, and certain things make sense. If you're smooth and controlled into the corner it's stable, but it's a fine line and the M8 Competition wasn't in its element on our test track.
Transmission and Differentials
The gear shifts are really nice and sharp, but also very smooth, which is important for acceleration. I liked how, when I accidentally double clicked the gear lever, it only did shifted once and didn't affect the lap time.
The gear ratios worked well and there was no issue. I didn't feel like I was ever in the wrong gear, and always had plenty of power and torque at my disposal.
I felt like the xDrive all-wheel drive system was really good from mid-corner to the exit. By that I mean the traction was really good but it also had enough freedom to adjust the line and really place the car where I wanted. It felt a bit biased to rear-wheel drive out of the corners, which was nice and enabled me to get a great exit onto the straights.
Unfortunately, as mentioned earlier, there was a tendency for the car to lose rear grip very easily on corner entry.
With the traction and stability control on I couldn't carry any entry speed, because it would immediately start controlling the car and stop it rotating. But with those systems switched off, it became a bit of a handful.
I felt like one solution would be a stronger differential on braking, which would control the wheel and stabilise the car more on corner entry without having to rely on the safety systems to do this.
Actual damper support was really nice and, as with the M550i, absorption of kerbs without unsettling the car was excellent.
It's really nice when the unloaded inside wheel can be used on the kerbs, and you'll quite often see this as the difference between different cars in a race category, from V8 supercars to Formula 1.
Usually the best cars have the least impact from the curbs. Both BMWs have done this really well and I have no complaints. For me just a little bit more forgiveness with slightly more chassis movement would have helped me attack the corner entry, and also would have aided traction.
The steering felt a little light and missing some of the detail and feedback I would have liked, but it was nice and precise. Overall? No major issue.
The Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tyres are good, but there is a lot of energy being transferred through them and it really was noticeable on a hot day. It's a big car with huge amounts of power and torque, and as a result the tyres didn't feel connected to the track, which then compounds into even greater pressure rise.
I think you would be amazed how much faster this car would be on a more race-oriented tyre.
Driver Aids (Electronics)
As I've already discussed, with the car in Track mode but and the stability control still on it was really taking over what I was doing, for both corner exit and entry.
The control is excellent if staying safe is the plan, but if outright performance is the goal it doesn't really enhance the outcome. With the settings switched off I was able to achieve a much quicker time, but it was a challenge and not without risk.
Cockpit (Ergonomics)
Seating position was really nice and low, I could get the seat angled back and in a really good position. There was also a lot of support and the seats would suit a wide range of people. It does this without sacrificing comfort, which is great.
I thought the steering wheel was a bit too thick and didn't give me the feeling I was looking for on a track.
Although it's really comfortable for a long trip, I prefer something slightly thinner so I have more control over it. I did like the nice touch of the different texture on the back of the gearshift paddles, this makes it a little bit easier to sense them and stops your fingers from slipping.
Visibility was good on the track, but on the road the a-pillars were a bit intrusive and blocked some of my vision through the corners.
I really liked the M1 and M2 buttons on the steering wheel, which you could pre-program and use to easily select the mode that you want on the track. A simple way to transition into hot laps and back again.
Lap Time
I think it will come as a shock to you that the M8 was a bit off the pace of what we expected. 57.36 seconds is a bit of an underachievement for a car of this calibre, and it was hard work to even get that time.
This car definitely was designed as a grand tourer. Even though the track and ambient temperatures were a bit against it, the M8 Competition just misses the mark on the track.
Atko's 3
Really take care on corner entry, time just disappears when you over commit
Use the RWD balance from the xDrive along with that great engine to focus on the corner exit
Be careful when switching off stability control, you need to be sharp

Connecticut Susan G. Komen Foundation will not pull Planned Parenthood funding
Abbe Smith, Register Staff
NEW HAVEN - As public outcry over the Susan G. Komen for a Cure Foundation's decision to cut off breast cancer funding to Planned Parenthood escalates, the Connecticut branch of Komen vowed not to pull its funding.
"We want to let folks know that this decision was made by national. Connecticut was not involved," said Ann Hogan, board president of Susan G. Komen for a Cure Foundation of Connecticut.
The national breast cancer charity is drawing intense fire for announcing it will stop funding Planned Parenthood while the women's reproductive health care provider is under investigation over whether it used public money to pay for abortions. Leading the probe is Cliff Stearns, a Republican congressman from Florida who is anti-abortion. Women's health advocates have accused Komen of pulling the funding for political reasons, and thereby jeopardizing the health of tens of thousands of women who can't otherwise afford breast cancer screening and mammograms.
Nationally and locally, Komen grants only fund breast cancer prevention services at Planned Parenthood.
Hogan said Komen Connecticut continues to be focused on its mission of raising money for breast cancer screening, treatment and outreach. Last year alone, it gave out $1 million in grants to local organizations, community health clinics and hospitals. Planned Parenthood of Southern New England has received $160,000 in funding from Komen over the past seven years, but does not have an application pending for next year. This year's $38,000 grant ends June 30. So the national decision does not impact the local Planned Parenthood, for now, Hogan said.
"We are hopeful on the national level this thing gets resolved. Planned Parenthood down the road might want to reapply in the future," she said.
Judy Tabar, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood of Southern New England, said she is deeply disappointed by the national Susan G. Komen Foundation's decision.
"We share the same goal as Komen, which is advancing women's health and we just hope they rethink this decision at the national level so this important partnership can continue," she said.
Tabar stressed that her organization has a great relationship with Komen Connecticut, which has funded almost 1,000 mammograms for uninsured and low-income women, specifically in Fairfield County.
Planned Parenthood is a frequent target for conservative groups that oppose the organization because it provides abortion services. However, abortions only account for about 10 percent of Planned Parenthood's services. Tabar said 90 percent of the services cover breast and cervical cancer screenings, Pap smears, birth control, prevention and treatment of sexually transmitted diseases.
The controversy has lit up on Facebook, with hundreds vowing to boycott Komen over the decision and others praising Komen for taking a stand against an abortion provider.
State Rep. Pat Dillon, D-New Haven, criticized the national Komen for bowing to political pressure and withdrawing funding that could save women's lives.
"I know people personally who were affected by breast cancer. It is just mind boggling that they would do this," she said. "To cut off funds for breast cancer screening. They are not paying for abortions."
Dillon said she was happy to hear that Komen Connecticut is supporting Planned Parenthood, but she is more concerned about loss of funding to Planned Parenthood clinics in the south, where more uninsured and low-income women rely on them for breast cancer screenings and other reproductive health services.
"I assume with all the publicity in the short term, there might be a burst in fundraising, but that's not sustainable. It's not a long-term plan," he said.

Q: Utilizing CLMUL in SICStus Prolog How can I get the SICStus Prolog JIT to use any of the following ISA?

*

*Intel BMI:
POPCNT, LZCNT, TZCNT, PDEP, PEXT

*Intel CLMUL: PCLMULQDQ

*ARM AArch64: RBIT
I need them for supercharging clpz. Right now, I got:

*

*http://www.hackersdelight.org/ and

*the non-ISO arithmetic function msb/1.
For a start that's good, but I want more. Please help!

A: Unfortunately, there is no way for users to extend the JIT for cases like this.
I have been thinking about accessing the population count instructions (for some unrelated uses) from Prolog. The way to add this and other similar instructions would be:

*

*Add a new arithmetic instruction to is/2. This needs to be supported by all our code, not just JIT-compiled code, so interpreter, WAM-emulator, various internal byte-code-processors, all the static analyzers in our IDE, etc. etc.

*Add JIT-compilation that just calls back into the corresponding C routine in the runtime system.

*If it can be demonstrated to benefit performance sufficiently, make the JIT compiler emit the special purpose CPU instructions for targets that have them.

(1) requires sufficient user demand (or explicit financing, of course). (3) requires convincing benchmarks. Currently neither of these are available, but that could change, of course.

Following in the tradition of Tom Waits' ramshackle circus train or Gogol Bordello's gypsy rock is Eugene's Unkle Nancy, the vision of a songwriter by the name of Joey Stewart. Somewhat a man of mystery, Stewart left his job two years ago to pursue music full time; he's since discovered a prolific muse and has written thousands of songs.
And there's bizarre poetry in Unkle Nancy's world. It's wobbly and wonky, crooked and cobbled together from spit and worn out shoe leather, composed of cello, washboard, flute, kazoo, resonator, guitar, banjo and, according to Stewart, "three-part harmonies, profane sing alongs, beatboxin' chickens, drunken children songs and so much more." There are songs like "Stumblin' Drunk," with a queasy guitar line and girl-done-me-wrong hopelessness. "Don't Hold Me Down" is a plucky tune about a rambler who just can't stay in one place too long. Then there's "Bobby Bumbleton," with a haunting Waits-ian strangeness. Always, Stewart's voice seems to be scrubbed with sandpaper.
In April and May, Unkle Nancy embarked on a "Dance or We Will Fight You!!!" tour of the West Coast. They're set to release their third CD, Vagabond Tramp, on July 3, followed by another West Coast tour. Looking ahead to the fall, Unkle Nancy will be working with Naima Muntal from Bad Mitten Orchestra on a new project called Dandylion Eyes.
A confession: I didn't believe it when I was told that High Diving Horses are an actual thing. I guess I was just a little too old for Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken, the early '90s Disney movie about a girl who rode horses off a towering platform in Atlantic City. I'm still not quite sure what equines leaping into pools have to do with the music of Danny Allen and Laura Jean Allen — there are no death-defying stunts in their loose-limbed, carefully unpolished songs.
Rocking a banjo, fiddle, guitar and no lyrical filter, the two-man musical experiment Green is for Go has been playing together for five years and building a steady local following, playing more than 80 shows in town over the last year and a half. That's saying something, given that they're only 21 years old.
While the bluegrass/comedy/rock band's lyrics can be silly and sophomoric (think Tenacious D), the songs are loose, light and fun, with an energetic rock factor that'll get most up and dancing. For slower, more serious cuts, think Guster with a banjo — a layered, technically impressive acoustic sound.

No, It's Not Religion That Gets You Dragged Off to Jail
For a while now, there has been paranoid claims from the religious right that society is becoming so hostile to religion that Christians could be arrested for their beliefs. Much of this is over Christians who condemn homosexuality and see hate laws and anti-discriminatory measures as direct legal attacks on their faith. Back in 2009, some Christians fretted that they could face "legal sanctions" for merely expressing their God-given beliefs.
Earlier this year, three congregations were shocked when actual city police officers marched into their churches and arrested three pastors. The police officers and the pastors all claimed in the video of the event that the arrests were for "defending the faith." The congregations later learned that the entire event was staged, the arrests mock ones, intended to show how difficult it had become to preach one's beliefs in current times.
Recently we have seen a series of movies showing Christians being persecuted for their beliefs, from a ridiculous movie about a college Philosophy professor forcing his class to admit God doesn't exist, to a movie literally titled "Persecuted," about a government conspiracy to create laws to, apparently, mute Christianity by mixing it with all other religions, or something. I haven't seen the movie, so I don't know if the reviews or the movie itself is bizarrely unclear. The main character is framed for a crime he did not commit, and stands to be imprisoned.
And just now, Texas Senator Ted Cruz stated that he believes there is a "real risk" that clergy will literally be arrested and imprisoned for advocating "traditional marriage."
All this despite the fact that, not only are Christians not being arrested and imprisoned, but the law is trending very strongly against any such eventuality. While others are being granted legal rights that these religious conservatives deplore and wish to stop, any law which even seems to infringe on religious freedoms, even tangentially, is being struck down—even if it means limiting the freedoms of people who believe differently.
Indeed, if you want to find anyone being sent to prison for their beliefs, you'r going to have to look at atheists. In California, in 2004, Barry A. Hazle, Jr. was arrested for meth possession. California law, in the wake of Prop 36, states that you have to be given three chances to remain sober. Hazle was in the process of being served with his second warning when police serving him found an unopened bottle of Whiskey in his apartment; that liquor got him sent to prison. The sentence was later overturned, as a court decided Hazle was arrested for a third offense which was committed before he was informed he had expended his second one.
In the meantime, Hazle went to prison for a year. After one year, he was offered a chance at parole—but only if he agreed to enter a rehab program. Hazle agreed, and was released on parole. However, a problem soon turned up: the rehab program demanded that all its members "recognize a higher power," i.e., God. Hazle, an atheist, had problems with that. According to records, he "congenially" stated his concerns and requested a different program. Since no secular program was found, his parole officer sent him back to jail for another 100 days.
He sued and won a sizable settlement, and California has since changed its laws not to so discriminate.
However, Hazel essentially served 100 days in prison for being an atheist; a Christian would have been allowed to go free.
In a society where Christians win national news coverage for their alleged "persecution" just because a business refuses to print religious material for copyright reasons, can you imagine what the reaction would be if a Christian were sentenced to jail because they refused to renounce God? Holy Crap, the Internet would explode and there would be weeks of non-stop coverage on Fox. Hazle's story barely made the news, mostly just local reports.
And although California changed its laws, there are many states which have not; and in many other ways, atheists are marginalized and given second-class citizenship—something Antonin Scalia (who calls atheists "irrational," believers "worldly wise," and believes that atheism "certainly favors the devil's desires") recently claimed was completely constitutional.
No, it's not religion that is being persecuted in the United States.

So much of the conservative mindset is wish-fulfillment.
People want the world to end with them, basically, so they don't miss anything.
Thus the millenialism and end-timers.
It's pathological but at a pretty low level of self-cognizance.

Should you buy the Universal Orlando Express Pass?
Are you planning a trip to Universal Orlando Resort? Wondering if Express Pass is worth the money?
My family recently tried the Express Pass ticket add-on at Universal Orlando Resort. We all love Harry Potter, and my kids (ages 10 and 13) are old enough to get excited about big thrill rides, so we used Express Pass on all the most popular rides in both Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure.
We are frugal, so we would not have purchased the Express Pass add-on if Universal Orlando Resort had not given them to us to review. I still do not think that Express Pass is essential if you are willing to wake up early and plan ahead. However, I have to admit that I loved our Express Passes.
Express Pass took away all the stress and frustration that we typically feel at theme parks when crowds get heavy. We rode any ride at any time without worrying about crazy long lines. No planning. No running to kiosks. No fussing with an app. It was awesome.
Here are my tips for getting the most from Express Pass at Universal Orlando Resort.
Universal Orlando Resort extends its Express Pass privileges to practically every attraction in the park. You'll find Express Pass lines at popular rides like Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey as well as kiddie rides like The Cat in the Hat. Most shows have Express Pass lines as well.
The only ride we found without an Express Pass line was Pteranadon Flyers in Universal's Islands of Adventure. Volcano Bay does not offer Express Pass privileges… yet.
Your Express Pass allows you to wait in a separate, usually shorter, line than the regular queue. Show your Express Pass to an employee at the ride entrance, and he/she will admit you to the Express Pass line. Universal Orlando Resort limits the number of Express Passes they sell to ensure that Express lines stay shorter than regular lines.
We found that the Express Pass didn't help much early in the day or on less popular rides where lines were short anyway. We also found that when crowds became heavy, Express Pass lines grew too.
Our typical wait in an Express Pass line was 10-15 minutes on a "mixed" weekday in October. Our maximum waits were around 30 minutes for Harry Potter and the Escape from Gringotts and Hogwarts Express. Even then, Express Pass cut our wait time by at least half.
Universal Orlando sells a limited number of Express Passes each day, so buy early if you want to be sure to get them. Prices and availability vary depending on the date of your visit. So, you'll probably pay more and need to buy earlier for the holiday break in December than for a weekday just two weeks later.
Choose between two Express Passes at Universal Orlando Resort: Universal Express Unlimited or Universal Express. Then decide if you want the pass for just one park, or both parks for each day you purchase this ticket add-on.
We had 2-Park Universal Express Unlimited Passes. This allowed us to enter the Express Line in either park for any ride as many times as we wanted for each day the Express Pass was valid. When our kids begged to ride Jurassic Park River Adventure twice in a row, we rode it twice in a row.
The Universal Express Pass is your other option. This allows you admission to the Express Line once per ride for the date the Express Pass is valid. This option is less expensive than Express Unlimited. It's nice to have an Express Unlimited, but honestly, there were only a couple of rides we enjoyed twice on the same day because there is so much to do at Universal Orlando.
To be clear, an Express Pass will not get you into the park. You must also purchase regular admission. Express Pass is an optional ticket add-on.
A lanyard is the best way to keep your Express Pass with you at all times. You'll be required to leave unsecured personal items like day packs in a locker before you enter most thrill ride lines, but you'll need to show the Express Pass in the line. Tuck the lanyard inside your shirt before you ride anything that turns you upside down, like the Incredible Hulk Coaster or Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey.
You can use any lanyard with a secure plastic pouch and a safety breakaway clasp. Here is an inexpensive example at Amazon.com. We purchased souvenir lanyards at Universal Orlando. There are four people in my family and we each picked a different Hogwarts house lanyard. We can reuse them on future cruise and theme park trips.
My family spends most of our theme park time on rides, and we loved using our Express Unlimited Passes at Universal Orlando. The Express Pass didn't eliminate standing in line, but it cut our wait times dramatically so we could ride a lot more in less time.
Disclosure: Universal Orlando Resort provided my family with complimentary Express Passes for the purpose of review. All opinions are my own.
Have a question? Ask in the comments!
My family is traveling to Universal Orlando and we are planning on visiting both parks to experience the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. Our hotel as well offers the unlimited express pass however we have heard that the queue areas for Forbidden Journey and Escape from Gringotts are not to be missed. Do you know how much of the queue area is sacrificed to be able to take advantage of the universal express feature? Should we wait in the regular line for both of these rides to see everything?
If the line is under 20-30 minutes on your first time through, you may want to take the regular line so you can be sure to see it all. Or decide whether riding fast or taking in the details is most important in the Express Line. If the latter, you may just want to let people pass you while you stop and take your time. I only rode Escape from Gringotts once (the rest of my family rode 2-3 times,) and we didn't stop to watch where Bill explains the ride in the queue, so some parts of the "plot" didn't make sense to me.
We have a party of five going to Universal for my daughter's 13th bday. Tickets for both parks are $180 plus the fast pass is $120. $300 per person for just tickets in one day at Universal is a lot more I budget for; still have to feed them! In trying to cut some expenses I'm wondering if it would be better to do just one park with fast passes, or do both parks without the fast passes. What would you recommend? Thanks in advance!!
Also would be worth mentioning we are going during the first week of April, spring break!
Hi SueEllen! I agree, that's a lot of money. If I had to choose, I would visit both parks without purchasing the Express Pass. The Express Pass is really convenient, but even during Spring Break, there are other ways to cut your time in line and still enjoy what you came to see and do. It would be a shame to miss the second park – especially if you are Harry Potter fans!
If you don't buy Express Pass, I recommend that you arrive at the park early each day and visit your top priority rides first. Later in the day, use single rider lines when possible, or save that time for shopping and shows. If you plan for the crowds, you should still have a great time.
If you were just going to get an Express Pass for one park & visit the other without an express pass- would you choose the express pass for Universal Studios or Islands of Adventure for a June trip with 10 & 12 year old kids? Thank you!
Both parks are fun and both have popular attractions with long lines. All things being equal, I lean slightly towards Islands of Adventure. However, the most important factors are your vacation schedule and which attractions are most important to you. What days of the week will you be visiting Universal Orlando? If one is a weekday and one is close to or on the weekend, you should expect the weekend to be more crowded. If one park has more interesting attractions for your family, then that's the park where you'll want to use Express Pass. If you know you'll have less time/energy on one day than another, then use Express Pass on a day you'll need to get through the park faster. Hope that helps!
Is 4 days too much time for Universal? I was thinking 2 days at the parks, one day at volcano bay and last day back to the parks. We are debating if it is worth it to spring for universal hotel that includes express passes, or stay at regular hotel and splurge on VIP one day. If you could only do express or VIP which would you choose? If doing VIP would you do it on the first or the last day? I don't want the behind the scenes to spoil any of the magic, but I also want to make it the most magical experience given the crowds. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated. Oh we are going in June and the main purposed is to experience Harry Potter World for my 10year old. We want to go in order of the book experience, so plan on going to Diagon Alley side first. When we are on that side is best to get a wand first or ride gringotts first? Sorry for so many questions. This trip planning is stressful business…. but worth it to create a fun trip.
Hi Melissa! Trip planning can be stressful, especially when you want it to be perfect and have so many great options! I think that if you do all three parks and CityWalk, 3-4 days at Universal is just right. Four days gives you one full day in each park, plus an extra day to do CityWalk (which doesn't need a full day), enjoy some pool time at your hotel, do anything that you didn't get to do, or do some favorites again. Keep in mind that if you splurge on Express Passes or the VIP experience that you'll skip the long lines and get through your priority attractions in a lot less time. A 4th day would allow most people all the time they could want in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, or allow you to enjoy Universal on a leisurely schedule.
I have used Express Pass, but have not tried VIP. I would do either on the first day rather than the last because you'll get right to your priority attractions with shorter lines and start your vacation with a slam dunk. You'll have a lot more experience to help you plan your remaining days. I would choose on-property with Express Pass over off-property with VIP because of the added convenience and perks of staying on-property and because Express Pass worked well for us. Again, I haven't tried the VIP experience, so I don't know what I'm missing.
I'm sure that Universal's goal with the VIP Experience is to enhance the magic, however, I can see the concern if your child is really looking forward to an immersive experience in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter and doesn't want to know how they did it. If you do choose the VIP Experience, I would share this with your guide so that he/she can best meet your needs.
Generally, I would recommend doing Escape from Gringotts first thing in the morning to beat the crowds. Plus, this ride (and many others) requires you to store all belongings (including wands) in lockers, which is a minor hassle. However, you can use Express Pass at Gringotts and you can't for the wand experience. Your child's chances of being selected for "the wand choosing the wizard" will be better if you do it when crowds are lightest – very early or late in the day. If you buy an interactive wand, it will do "spells" in the shop windows, which is fun.
Hope that helps! Happy planning!
Hi Alison, this is a really useful page. Thank you!
We're visiting next year and staying at a Disney hotel, but planning on dedicating a couple of days to a Universal. I am looking at the 2 park tickets so we can experience Hogwarts Express. What I can't quite understand is, if we buy an Express pass, does it cover both parks, or just one at a time. Can you help?
Hi Julie. That sounds like a great trip! You have a lot of options with Express Pass… one park, both parks, one use per ride, or unlimited access. Each option is priced differently, with the 2-Park Universal Express Unlimited Pass being about $30 more expensive than the one park, one use per ride Express Pass. You can see all the options on Universal's website here: https://www.universalorlando.com/web/en/us/tickets-packages/express-passes/index.html Hope that helps!
We were blessed with winning 4 One day two Park tickets to Universal Resorts Orlando! While this is a great thing..trying to figure out how to keep the price down for the unexpected trip is stressfull as we have a family cruise planned in the next 30 days with Christmas right behind that. We are family of 4 our children are 4 and 7. However, my mother is a Harry Potter crazed/ obsessed fan LOL who is also a 100% disabled veteran. So with that being said our family of five will be traveling to Universal Orlando from about 2 hrs away.
My question is with December 13th being the day we're going to try to cram in both parks ..do we need the express passes? If so then we should Splurge for the expense of an on-site Hotel. Or do you think the crowds will be so low that we can stay off site and save a boatload of money? We are Disney fans and probably will not be venturing back to Universal until the children are older. Any solid advice would be much appreciated!!
Congratulations on the free tickets! That will be so fun.
Since you live close enough, this probably isn't a once-in-a-lifetime trip. The Express Passes would definitely help you cover more ground in both parks. However, you could instead focus on Harry Potter and get a feel for the parks this trip. Maybe save the rest for a future trip.
I think it's a great idea to get a hotel the night before and pick a day with lighter crowds. Whether you stay off-site or on-site, I would arrive at the gates 20-30 minutes before the published opening time and walk straight to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. Start with the top rides and save shopping, dining and shows for later in the day.
If you can get in an hour early by staying at an on-site hotel, that is a splurge that I would consider. However, I think you could have a great day wherever you stay, as long as you have appropriate expectations for what you'll be able to accomplish in your limited time.

Rowan started as most others do - by trying to build a website that could simply take orders. After years of struggling with multiple systems manual emails and CSV downloads to run his business Rowan knew things had to change if Blonyx was to grow. Taking a deep breath he began to study the platforms and integrations out there that could fit his business needs. After another year of trial and error Rowan and his ever growing team have learnt the art of automation using the Shopify platform.
Today Blonyx is a model of business automation strategy, managing sales across half of the globe from multiple warehouses and with two subsidiaries. The company's marketing, sales and customer management is a well oiled machine that supports growth… and it all exists behind the image you see when you type in the Blonyx url.
TinLabs is a project that has come out of Rowan's experience. A project to help other entrepreneurs turn their web sites into a robot that propels their businesses towards their vision quicker and more efficiently. Working with TinLabs is not a way of getting a website built, it's a way to build your organization.

New Travel Planner Website Makes Life Easier for Disabled Travellers
The new Travel Planner website developed by New Mind | tellUs, www.tourismforall.co.uk, has been launched by Tourism for All, a national charity which is the voice of accessible tourism and travel in the UK.
This new consumer search and booking website for disabled travellers, their families and friends will bring hundreds of hotels, attractions, activities and restaurants across the UK, as well as special offers and a travel planning service, within easy reach of this rapidly growing market.
The site is powered by the National Tourism Data Warehouse from New Mind | tellUs which is a culmination of data from over 150 destinations, resulting in one of the most powerful, rich and accurate databases available in the UK.
Travellers with accessibility needs can search for tourism businesses of all types, based on where they want to go, what they want to do, the type of accommodation they want to stay in or the type of restaurant they want to eat in. Search results can be filtered according to the traveller's individual accessibility needs, based on a set of common accessibility search criteria which has been defined for each category of business.
The www.tourismforall.co.uk website is managed on behalf of Tourism for All by Ignyte, the marketing and account management agency, who will ensure that the accessibility information featured on Tourism for All Travel Planner is accurate, relevant and reliable.
The site takes over from Open Britain, the charity's previous consumer search website. Although Open Britain was the most comprehensive and popular directory of accessible businesses in the UK (it was visited by over 150,000 individuals each year), it largely relied on businesses to update their own accessibility information, which meant that the content was not always 100% up to date or comprehensive.
Tourism for All Travel Planner will feature the same wide-ranging content as before (the site already features over 300 businesses and that number is growing daily) but with the added advantage that the accuracy and comprehensiveness of the accessibility information will be managed by Ignyte.
Kenny Boyle, Tourism for All's Chair commented: "We are delighted with our new relationships with New Mind | tellUs and Ignyte and we are sure that, with their expertise and support, Tourism for All Travel Planner will be the new 'go to', trusted channel for disabled travellers, and their families and friends, to find great holidays and breaks throughout the UK."


You must have heard that old Bollywood saying that Mithun Chowkarborty was the poor man's Amitabh Bachchan. Similarly, the Datsun 510 and Corolla KE70 were called the poor man's BMW back in the day.
Today, however, I don't think this is true, as more and more people choose value for money over luxury. You can't call the newer fully loaded Toyota Corolla as a poor man's BMW, because it has its own value for money.
Similarly, the new Honor 10 is not a poor man's iPhone X. First, it costs around Rs55,999 which by no means is cheap, and secondly, it really is a damn good phone with all the flagship features doing the rounds these days.
As soon as I opened the box, I was pleasantly surprised: the Honor 10 looks great, thanks to its 'aurora' glass body which changes colours as you move it around and view it at different angles.
The phone also feels fantastic in my hand. I love the size of it - just the right dimensions, so your thumb can reach the furthest corners of the phone with little effort. The best part is that it doesn't slip as you're swiping here and there on the screen with your thumb.
It is an all-glass smartphone with the exception of its polished metal frame, and there is a really nice contrast between the blue metal frame and the blue glass back.
The Honor 10 has a dual camera setup: a regular RGB camera with a high-res monochrome camera. The colour camera has 16MP, while the monochrome imager has 24MP, each fitted with a f/1.8 lens.
The key feature is its AI technology - according to Honor, the camera can recognise 22 different categories of subjects and more than 500 scenarios, and adjusts shooting parameters accordingly.
The screen is 5.84 inches in size with an IPS LCD of 2280x1080 pixels, translating to 19:9 aspect ratio and 432 ppi.
Put simply, the display is fantastic and because the black levels are quite deep, you can expect great contrast. It further has three different colour temperatures that you can set as per your liking. You can always create a custom one as well.
You might notice a slight blue tint that comes in as standard, but you can opt for warm to normal settings to get more accurate colors. Lastly though, there's no IP67 rating, so don't splash any water on it. Given the hard summers here though, I think it would fare alright with sweat.
You also have the choice to hide or leave the notch on top, plus two settings for the home screen that makes it resemble the iPhone X.
The phone has a 3400 mAh battery, with its own custom solution for fast charging called 'SuperCharge'. Most reviews around the web report that the charge can get from 0 to 65% in about 30 minutes which is quite nice. Personally, I won't recommend that you use any other charger than the one that comes in the box.
The particular model I received has a 4GB RAM and 128GB HDD, and its performance is right up there with the more popular One Plus 5T and 6. The Qualcomm chip is superior, which the One Plus 6 also utilises, while the processor is on the power level of One Plus 5.
Then again, it's not as expensive as the One Plus 6 because Honor is giving you the same flagship experience on a budget. However, there is no sacrifice to make, and it delivers pretty decent graphics and performance.
The smartphone market has become so saturated that buyer guides and reviews talk to you like you're some kind of smartphone engineer. Your go-to tech person doesn't always have the answers, and replies with 'acha hai' when he's lost on what the damn thing are you talking about. In such cases, we all approach things from the money perspective.
Is it in my budget? Would I be able to afford this smartphone without selling all I own? Is this phone for me?
Those are crucial questions and there are other phones doing a similar, if not a better job at being just smartphones and more.
But then you look at the Honor 10 and its cool set of features, and everything else becomes secondary.
This content has been independently produced by the writer. Honor has paid for association with this content.
Go for Huawei P20 Lite . You will almost get very thing mentioned for Rs.33000/-. value for money !
Costly time-waste for the children of fabulously rich.
Baber- I am delighted to see you writing reviews, that too with less glitches.
The specs these phone vendors claim and the real experience are two different things. I have apple to apple compared Huawei, Motrola, Xiaomi, Sony and Nokia with Samsung and Apple. These two brands are outclass and hardly anyone is close to them even in specs.
Once charged 100%, will it get us through a day?
