In the night from 13 to 14 December the shooting stars of the Geminids meteor shower reach their peak. With a little luck, up to 120 shooting stars can be seen per hour worldwide! Every year between 4 and 17 December, the Earth crosses the orbit of the asteroid 3200 Phaethon. Its fragments burn in the Earth's atmosphere and cause the luminous spectacle.
The radiant of the meteor shower lies in the constellation of the Twins, lat. Gemini, hence its name. The first records of the Geminids date back to 1862. With over 100 ZHR (Zenithal Hourly Rate, the number of meteors visible to the naked eye), the Geminids meteor shower is one of the strongest.
If you want to see the shooting stars at night, it is advantageous to look at them outside the city. Far away from much light, the spectacle comes more to the fore. Pay attention also to local weather indications, since clouds obstruct the view unfortunately.

During the weekend of Oct. 12-14, not a single person was reported shot in all of New York City. The Big Apple is home to 8.6 million people and not a single reported shooting in the entire city.
Compare that to the last full weekend of August in Memphis, Tenn., a population of about 650,000. Seven people were shot and killed. All seven of the victims were men. Six of the dead were between the ages 23 and 49.
The carnage in Memphis pales in comparison to Chicago's deadly first weekend of August. At least 72 people were shot, including 12 fatally. Chicago, with a population of 2.7 million — about a third of New York City — hasn't seen things improve. During the third weekend of August, 61 people were shot with eight dead.
Do you think guns in Chicago are a problem? Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson told USA Today that officers shut down 68 illegal block parties during the most-recent deadly weekend, seizing 83 guns and arresting 29 people on gun charges.
Deadly weekends are not exclusive to Chicago and Memphis. At least seven people were shot and killed during the last weekend in September in Baltimore. Police told WJZ-TV two people were gunned downed Saturday evening, with three more fatal shootings overnight Saturday, and another one Sunday morning and the seventh Sunday evening. Baltimore has a population of about 618,000 people.
If New York City has found the solution to gun violence, why isn't it being replicated?
In 1996, U.S. Rep. Jay Dickey, a self-proclaimed "point-man" for the National Rifle Association, proposed a legislative amendment that removed millions of dollars from the Center for Disease Control's budget earmarked for firearms-related research. Twenty-one years later, things haven't changed. According to a 2017 study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, gun violence research received what amounts to 5.3 percent of the federal funds dedicated to studying motor-vehicle accidents — even though guns and cars kill at about the same rate.

East Village Youth Program
2017 eNewsletters
In May of 1986, Jess Levine, a Chicago businessman, became involved with the Hans Christian Andersen Elementary School through the Chicago Board of Education's Adopt-A-School program. Through this program, which linked businesses with public schools, Levine collaborated with the school's administration, its faculty and parents to establish an extensive after-school program that would provide academic assistance and extra-curricular activities. It soon became evident that a much more comprehensive support system that would extend beyond the students' elementary years was called for in order to make a positive and effective impact in the children's lives.
The East Village Youth Program was incorporated as an independent, non-profit organization in February 1989. It was developed as a model program that could be extended to other schools. From 1989 to the end of 1995, EVYP offered its programs and services exclusively to students from Hans Christian Andersen Elementary School. In 1998, EVYP extended its reach to better serve students by establishing an evening tutoring program, staffed by volunteers. EVYP opened a satellite program in 2001 and partnered with two elementary schools, Mitchell and Chopin Schools. Since moving in 2007 to its current location in the Avondale neighborhood, EVYP has focused on the immediate and surrounding communities, including West Town, Humboldt Park, Belmont-Cragin, Avondale, and Logan Square, providing comprehensive college and career readiness services to more than 1000 youth and their families.

Who will be buying DAB radios this Christmas? Let me take a guess: young people, as a present for Nan so she can listen to old episodes of Hancock's Half Hour. I feel fairly safe in predicting - albeit on the basis of largely anecdotal evidence - that this festive season, a DAB radio will not be the hot must-have item for the cool daddio on the street (forgive me, I lost touch with youth speak around the time Elvis started putting on weight). In that respect, there is little change from last Christmas - or the Christmas before that.
The typical DAB listener is probably not a chap in a hooded top and ill-advised trousers, but someone like me. I was an early adopter because I swallowed the publicity surrounding its launch in Britain in the late 1990s, which led me to believe I was in for a bewildering array of speech and music stations, with a sound quality vastly superior to anything I had heard before.
Both these promises turned out to be about as reliable as the suggestion that a bowl of Special K every morning will make you slim, tanned and toned, or that Guinness is good for you.
Not that I am complaining. When my radio set gave up on me recently, I was down at Argos within the hour buying a new one, not for the bewildering array of music choices - I can hear Elton John oldies on Heart AND Smooth now - or the exciting speech options, but for BBC7's vintage comedy.
If radio is about a listener relating to a voice and building up some kind of relationship with it, I feel that way about Peter Jones. Jones is best known as the voice of the book in the radio series of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, but what I really wanted, and what BBC7 gave me, was the voice of Jones, who died in 2000, on Just a Minute.
Despite the many fine comedians who appear on the show, and Kenneth Williams's bravura performances in the 1970s and 80s, Jones remains my all-time favourite panellist. He always gave the impression of an old actor in a tweed jacket who had just wandered into the studio - which was more or less what he was.
His glorious insouciance worked brilliantly as counterpoint to the eager beaver chairman, Nicholas Parsons. Just as I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue worked because its host, Humphrey Lyttelton, was so funny and knowing, what lifts Just a Minute into the pantheon is that it is a comedy panel game chaired by someone with no discernible sense of humour. Brilliant. BBC7 has also brought us repeats of another work of genius featuring Jones - the spoof memoirs of an actor called J Kingston Platt, first broadcast in 1988.
DAB is great for this sort of stuff because it is not, as advertised, CD quality but slightly lower quality than FM radio - something to do with bit rate levels being too low, apparently - which seems about right for old comedy.
Though there is programming on DAB that younger people may enjoy - football on 5 Live Sports Extra and TalkSport, dance music on 1Extra - carrying a radio set around the house just seems such a baby-boomer generation thing to do. It is no coincidence most DAB radios have a retro look.
TalkSport is currently running an ad that goes something like: "Come on, Grandad, still listening on old-fashioned medium wave? Get up to date with a brand-new DAB radio ... " This could not be more wrong. There is a good chance Grandad is already listening on DAB but, with Channel 4 Radio having failed to take off, unless something compelling for his grandchildren becomes available soon, DAB is destined to be radio's Betamax.
• This article was amended on Monday December 8 2008. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy began as a BBC radio series, rather than as a book. This has been amended.

Q: Title bar buttons lose highlighted state when hovered in D7 on Win10 When you place the mouse over a window's title bar buttons (minimize, maximize, close) in Windows 10, the button becomes highlighted in red color.
However, if you compile a program with Delphi 7, run it, and put the mouse over one of those buttons, the button only stays highlighted for a fraction of a second and then immediately returns to normal.
This also happens with a program that does nothing -- compile an empty form, run it, and the same thing happens...
Does anyone know what is going on, and how to make those buttons behave the standard way?

'Force Awakens' Destroys 'Harry Potter's' Thursday Night Record in U.S.
The Force has topped Harry Potter as "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" took in $57 million in opening Thursday-night preview shows in the U.S., setting its first box office record.
"The Force Awakens" easily beat the previous Thursday-night preview record of $43.5 million by Warner Bros.' "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2," set in July 2011.
The first showings of the seventh Star Wars movie generated 47% of its U.S. preview grosses from 3D screenings, including $5.7 millions from 391 Imax screens, nearly doubling the previous record. "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" has also taken in $72.7 million from its first two days in 44 international markets.
The seventh Star Wars movie — which generated hundreds of sold-out shows and thousands of fans showing up in costume — was so powerful that it grossed about 70 times the amount taken in Thursday night by previews of Universal's Tina Fey-Amy Poehler comedy "Sisters," which drew $769,000 at 2,220 theaters.
The U.S. showings of Disney-Lucasfilm's "The Force Awakens," directed by J.J. Abrams, began at 7 p.m. following months of a massive marketing build-up by Disney. The cast includes Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Adam Driver, Lupita Nyong'o and Domhnall Gleeson along with original "Star Wars" stars Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher.
Rival studios and industry analysts have asserted in recent days that "The Force Awakens" will open to $210 million or more domestically.
Disney hasn't offered a forecast but its marketing campaign has clearly tapped into an enormous pent-up demand for the return of Luke Skywalker, Chewbacca and Han Solo, plus the new characters and story line. The movie is opening three years after Disney paid $4.06 billion for Lucasfilm.
"The Force Awakens" is set 30 years after the events of 1983's "Star Wars: Return of the Jedi." The film will be in a total of 4,134 North American locations on Friday — a record for a December opening.
"The Force Awakens" also debuted in a dozen international markets on Wednesday with a total of $14.1 million at the international box office, then added $58.6 million on Thursday as it opened in 32 more territories and set single-day reocords in the U.K., Germany, Sweden and Norway.
"The Force Awakens" is the first Star Wars movie since Fox released George Lucas' "Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith" a decade ago. "Sith" generated nearly $850 million in worldwide box office.
Anticipation is so high that speculation has already emerged that "The Force Awakens" could set a new record for worldwide gross by passing "Avatar" at $2.78 billion.
"Sisters" will likely pull in $13 million from 2,961 North American theaters this weekend as Universal offers counterprogramming for comedy fans. Fey and Poehler portray siblings throwing a blow-out bash in their childhood home with a production cost of $30 million.
Fox is attempting to draw younger children this weekend with "Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip." The fourth installment in the Alvin series should make $12 million from 3,653 locations.

The attacks of 9/11 were criminal acts committed by legal immigrants inspired by hatred from radical groups origionating in the middle eastern area.
It was not a declaration of war, and if it was, on whom?
The Military went into the Middle Eastern area with other allies to weed out the group's foundations as foreign criminals , not as any declaration of war.
Torture is a criminal act. The act of a person holding another captive and torturing them is a crime by most legal standards, and it is the same (or should be) within intelligence agencies or other government and military groups. They are not above the law. The Constitution clearly defines this. Anyone found to act out torture on any human being should be arrested.
. The Bill of Rights also defines torture going against the fifth amendment.
I recently found this nice internet PDF. It presents a good argument for the need of an end to the irrational fear and unfair no tolerance policies of the "School to Prison Pipeline".
Illegal Immigration: Seriously, Stop the Bigotry.
Are some so blinded and brainwashed into nationalism that Immigrants are ruining america? That we forget their status as humans and simply cast them out as criminals?
Give them some decency. Offer them citizenship instead of ripping their desperate families up and deporting them.


A CFD simulation methodology to calculate blockage due to ice crystal icing of the IGV passages of a gas turbine engine is presented. The computational domain includes the nacelle, full bypass and the air induction section up to the 2nd stage of the low-pressure compressor. The model is a geared turbofan whose fan rotates at 3800 rpm and the compressor rotor at 8000 rpm. The flight conditions are based on the FAA FAR25 Appendix-D for a cruising altitude of 28000 ft., where the static temperature is 240 K, crystal MVD is 50 microns, ICC is 3.82 g/m^3 and the relative humidity is about 40%. The air speed is set at 0.78 Mach. Crystal bouncing and re-impingement is considered in the calculations, along with variable relative humidity and crystal melting due to the temperatures rise within the engine core. Crystal sticking and erosion effects are modeled using analytical methods. Total time of icing is set at 10 minutes. The ice shapes that accrete on the IGV passage are calculated in a multi-shot, multistage approach, with frequent updates of the computational grid to reflect the changes in the surfaces and blockage in the domain. The starting number of grid points in the entire system is around 8 million and increases with the remeshing of the iced surfaces.

As productive as humans are at creating new technology, producing astonishing movies, and helping fellow humans live better at the top of the food chain, we can do better. We now have the option of employing software bots at work to complement our inquiring minds. Robotic Process Automation (RPA) technology from Automation Anywhere can automate mundane repetitive tasks and helps us refocus on work we enjoy the most. With pre-built bots and Digital Workers from the Bot Store, automating tasks has never been easier.
2018 has clocked in as another explosive year of growth in enterprise RPA. HfS just issued an amended forecast for growth in the global robotic process automation market, expecting RPA to reach $4.3b by 2022. The Digital Workforce revolution is gaining momentum—and fast.
Industry experts like Gartner, Forrester, and others consider Automation Anywhere to be a leader in Robotic Process Automation (RPA). And this is for good reason. Over the years, our RPA product has evolved from automating basic, rote tasks to now being a fully cognitive solution which incorporates Artificial Intelligence (AI) including machine learning (ML), optical character recognition (OCR), and more. The combination of RPA, cognitive automation and analytics creates a powerful solution, that is intuitive and user-friendly.
Where do some of the brightest minds in tech go to battle?
Glad you asked. Because we just wrapped up Bot Games – the Robotic Process Automation industry's premier event for developers – in Bengaluru, India on September 18, 2018. This was the largest gathering of RPA developers in a physical location anywhere in the world.
They came in numbers that we couldn't anticipate in our wildest dreams. They fought wars and won feuds. They raised their IQ by a few points and let their genius shine through. They made new professional connections and gained new skills. But not least in the order of importance, they had fun. It was a blast! If you ever doubted that developers, architects and program owners can party, you've got to check out Bot Games.
Buckle up. The pace of change of digital transformation continues to accelerate with Robotic Process Automation (RPA) at the frontlines. Looking to 2025, according to a new report from KPMG in the US, 32 percent of industry leaders expect to increase RPA investment by 20 percent or more, with nearly two-thirds of respondents planning to fully implement RPA within three years.

The experience of motherhood is shared by women across time, borders and languages. Despite massive shifts in culture and technology, modern moms have many of the same questions and challenges as their mothers and grandmothers. However, the resources moms use to manage the complexities of parenthood have changed considerably over generations. Moms still seek advice from a broad range of sources, but today, they're often turning to the internet to do so. The ways in which today's moms prioritize and balance the roles of self, Mom, wife, coworker, sister, friend and daughter may differ, but one thing is evident – digital tools can help make her life a little easier. The challenge for brands today is to cut through the noise and provide value when the volume of information available to moms is overwhelming.
With moms using the Internet more than ever, Laughlin Constable has provided ways to reach and resonate with Mom in the digital age.
Be there for her whenever she needs you: Make it mobile.
Mom's smartphone very well may be considered her savior. Handy mobile apps can help her communicate with family, find nearby locations, snag deals, search for products and recipes and simply save time and energy. Moms are constantly switching between screens, so your content should be moving with them. According a January 2016 study conducted by Facebook IQ, parents over-index on social mobile usage – globally, they spend 1.3X more time on Facebook mobile than people without children. With this, it's imperative for brands to create a seamless multi-screen digital experience for Mom. However, it is also important for brands to avoid overwhelming her even more with irrelevant, unwelcome content at every conceivable turn.
Show her what to do: Use video effectively.
More and more, moms are turning to YouTube for answers to their everyday questions. According to a September 2015 study conducted by Google, TNS and Ipsos, 83 percent of moms search for answers to their questions online. Of those, three in five turn to online video in particular. Today's new moms spend an average of 8.3 hours daily consuming media – about an hour more per day than Gen X moms – with most of that extra time spent streaming video. This presents brands with a great opportunity: to provide valuable content when moms are looking for support, information or ideas. Of the moms surveyed who view YouTube videos, 81 percent watch how-to content. In fact, moms are significantly more likely to watch how-to content than the average viewer.
Respect her time: Be as brief as possible.
Moms appreciate value and efficiency. Especially with an overflowing plate, it's crucial for brands to give Mom the information she needs upfront without forcing her to dig through clutter. Access to information can be a double-edged sword – on one hand, it's great for her to have the brain trust of the internet at her fingertips, but all that information and all those opinions can leave her feeling confused. Nurture quick wins with Mom by serving up concise, crystal clear content that simplifies complexities in a relevant way.
Meet her with an empathetic voice: Motherhood means vulnerability.
Every mom has different fears, dreams, beliefs and values, but they share a mutual understanding that parenting is not all sunshine and roses. Brands that understand and acknowledge the challenges of parenthood and speak to moms with a compassionate voice, no matter the category or platform, resonate best with moms. With Medela, Laughlin Constable built a content strategy that includes motivational, inspirational content in addition to educational blogs and tips for new moms. Rather than glossing over the challenges of early parenthood, Medela has created a social community based in part on support and encouragement.
Empower her to help herself: Self-care is crucial.
Mom has to take care of herself before she can take care of others, but her personal needs are often pushed to the bottom of a never-ending to-do list. Savvy brands help her feel more confident, cared for and capable by offering self-care solutions, time-saving tips and real-time resources.
As with any other audience, it's important to remember that moms lead rich, complex lives and their identities extend far beyond just being a parent. Honor and recognize moms' reality and allow opportunities for her to put on her oxygen mask first. After all, there's no work more important than the work of a parent. Brands that are aligned to help support that vital work can and should meet moms where they are to make a unique connection with consumers.

Austria Increases Russian Gas Imports by 77.2 Per Cent Since Start of 2018
gazprom.com/press/news/2018/april/article416515/?f...

The parties addressed the ongoing and future cooperation, noting that after its record-breaking year for Russian gas imports in 2017, Austria continued to show dynamic growth in the gas demand. According to preliminary data, from January 1 through April 8, 2018, Gazprom had supplied Austria with 3.7 billion cubic meters of gas, a rise of 77.2 per cent compared to the same period of last year.
Particular attention was paid to the high reliability of gas supplies, including during the peak cold period in Europe between late February and early March, when only Gazprom was able to promptly increase deliveries and provide consumers with the required volumes of gas.
The parties also discussed the progress of the Nord Stream 2 project. At present, work is underway on obtaining the permits for the construction and operation of the gas pipeline.

In 2017, Gazprom set a new record for gas exports to Austria at 9.1 billion cubic meters, a rise of 50.3 per cent (3 billion cubic meters) from 2016 (6.1 billion cubic meters) and 33.7 per cent (2.3 billion cubic meters) from 2005, when the previous record had been reached (6.8 billion cubic meters).
OMV is Gazprom's main partner in Austria. The companies cooperate in gas production, transportation and supplies.
Nord Stream 2 is the construction project for a gas pipeline with the annual capacity of 55 billion cubic meters from Russia to Germany across the Baltic Sea.

Nepal's capital city of Kathmandu is one of the world's must-go destinations for wayward travellers looking to experience the vibrancy of Asia's urban landscape. The city is located at the base of the mighty Himalayan mountain range, making it base camp for many a mountaineer looking to set out and conquer those hazardous peaks.
Of course it's not just the mountains that makes visiting Kathmandu worthwhile. If you care to venture forth into the city, you'll find a treasure trove of sights to see and activities to undertake, all the while exposing yourself to the hustle and bustle of the local culture.
Kathmandu itself is a noisy city, a cramped environment full of people and goods and constantly alive with activity. Simply walking down the street can be quite a chaotic experience; looking up at the thick stands of electrical wire hanging from building to building while you're harangued by street merchants selling their wares. That's not to mention the mopeds weaving in and out of traffic with little to no regard for pedestrians, or even cars squeezing down alleyways barely wide enough for them to fit, blaring their horns at everything in their path as they go. Kathmandu is certainly a noisy city, but that noise is the beating heart of a people and culture.
Sharply contrasting the chaos and bustle of the rest of Kathmandu, the Boudhanath Stupa is an oasis of calm and tranquillity in this otherwise busy city. The stupa is one of the holiest and most recognisable sites in the city, it being a combination of Buddhist and Tibetan cultures. While you're visiting, you'll be able to see people practicing their religion which can be rather fascinating. However, you should keep in mind one rule while visiting, and that is to always walk through the temple in a clockwise direction as it's seen to be bad luck not to.
The best time of day to go would be either late afternoon or early morning. These times mean you can avoid the rush of tourists, and if you're lucky in the mornings you can see the Buddhist monks undertaking their morning prayers.
Alternatively, you can choose to take the bull by the horns and dive straight into the chaos of Thamel, the market hub of Kathmandu. For explorers willing to tackle the throng of people, there is a wealth of different things to enjoy. The markets offer up all kinds of different delights, from souvenirs, knockoffs of souvenirs, local food and goods. The place is a labyrinth of sights, smells and experiences and if all of that starts to get to you, there's always the option of visiting the tranquil Garden of Dreams nearby for a respite.
The Pashupatinath temple is another of Kathmandu's holy sites, except instead of Buddhism, the temple is Nepal's most important Hindu place of worship. Although non-Hindu's are not permitted within the temple itself, there's nevertheless much to see. You can behold the exterior of the temple which is constructed in the pagoda style of architecture and sits on the banks of the Bagmati River and is surrounded by smaller temples frequented by Hindu holy men, known as Sadhus. There are also traders that sell souvenirs such as incense, conch shells and marigolds. Or, if you're feeling particularly curious, you can venture down to the Bagmati and bear witness to one of the frequent cremations that occur there. It's a tradition that's very important to these people even if it might seem a touch morbid from a Westerner's viewpoint. Just watch out for the smoke.
Of course, there is one reason so many tourists flock to Nepal every year and that reason is the Everest region. Nepal is home 8 of the world's 14 mountain peaks that reach over 8000 feet (the other 6 of which are also part of the Himalayas). From Kathmandu, the only way to reach the Everest region is by a 30 minute flight in a small plane to Lukla airport, and from there you'll have to trek for two days to Namche Bazaar, the main town of the Everest region. If you want to proceed to Everest base camp, it'll be another week's trekking after that. Well, climbing the Himalayas was never supposed to be easy.
After all off that adventuring in and around Kathmandu, you're going to need someplace to lay your weary head. The Shambaling Boutique hotel is just a 10 minute walk from the Boudhanath Stupa and built in a renovated Tibetan style house. The hotel's design closely follows many Tibetan asthetics and every floor represents the Kalachakra elements of earth, fire, water and sky.

Bengtson, Roger Physics Department, University of Texas, Austin, Texas.
Electric propulsion systems have the possibility of reducing the propellant mass needed for long-range planetary missions and drag compensation in orbiting satellites, as compared to chemical rocket systems. Electric propulsion reduces the mass needed for a given transfer of momentum to the space vehicle and thus its acceleration by exhausting the mass at a higher velocity. Electric propulsion systems are not used to launch payloads from the Earth's surface to low-Earth orbit because the force and energy required are too large. Instead, they are used in a space environment for drag compensation of space stations and for long space trips.


In simplest words, Quality is defined as a determination of how good or bad something is. Or how well it meets customer expectations.
The term 'Quality' gained importance only after Industrial Revolution, when mass production started.The industries started paying attention to quality processes in order to meet the customer expectations and competing others for higher prices. The Quality Gurus - Joseph J. Juran,W Edwards Deming & Philips Crosby have been instrumental in understanding the concept of Quality, further.
Today, Quality is ingrained in each and every function of any organization and not merely limited to manufacturing function. It has become responsibility of everyone in the organization. For any organization to succeed, quality has to be maintained at every level. Having good and consistently improving quality has become crucial for organization of any scale to survive and be profitable.
But, how do we guarantee whether a product or service is of good quality or consistent quality? It is where comes the need of having a proper Quality Management Practice in place. Quality Management System encompasses formalized processes and procedures set in place, which guide the organization to meet the customer expectation and regulatory requirements. It helps an organization improve its efficiency and effectiveness on continuous basis.
What purpose does a QMS Serve?
-> Helps direct the corporate culture.
If products/services meet customer expectations, then only they would be willing to pay more.
->It is essential for customer satisfaction which eventually leads to customer loyalty.
->It helps an organization to design and create a product/service which the customer actually wants and desires.
->It ensures increased revenues and higher productivity for the organization.
->It helps organizations to reduce waste and inventory.
->It helps in maintaining lower costs and increased profits.
It is important to develop a robust QMS in an organization. Such a system should be simple to understand, efficient and effective.
1) Quality Planning (Plan)- The first and foremost step involves taking a commitment from top management to build a QMS plan, followed by creating a detailed QMS Plan along with timeline of implementation.
2) Quality Control (Do)- Once a proper plan is in place,a detailed analysis of the current existing in the organization is done. and document the needed practises to achieve the goal. All the processes have to be integrated in document control process.
3) Quality Assurance (Check)- This step makes sure that all the other processes are in place. Regular audits and inspections can help to track and analyze the quality data. Identification of noteworthy trends is the outcome of this step.
4) Quality Improvement (Act)-Based on data analysis, quality team can continuously improve the quality of raw materials, work in process and finished products.
If all the organizations follow these steps religiously, they can easily gain competitive advantage in marketplace through superior quality.
Quality Management Systems, time and again, have been responsible for substantial increases in the bottom line of businesses in every industry and have given organizations the boost they need to meet overall goals and objectives.

The Suite Life Of Zack and Cody Old Bloopers!!
Dylan Sprouse All About His Art!!!
posted by melikhan
Dylan Sprouse may be better known for his portrayal of smart alec twin Zack on The Suite Life on Deck, but there's another thing in life he's a bit more passionate about: ART!
JJJ exclusively caught up with the 18-year-old actor at Pair of Kings promotional shoot earlier this month and got to chatting about his artistic side. Check out what he had to share with us:
On his inspirations: "I like Goya a lot. He has this crazy dark style and I like that a lot. Kind of a zombie thing too. Joe Ledbetter is another and Hieronymus Bosch."
On his famous zombie Pikachu: "The thought came across my mind where witnessing a Pokemon battle in real life would be pretty crazy. It would crazier if there were zombies."
On if he'd ever sell his art: "Right now I'm doing it for fun. I guess if anyone offers to pay me for it, I would but really it's all for fun."

Snapchat Discover Offers Content from Major Brands
By Andrew S In Social Bookmarking, Social Media, Social Media News Brief, Social Networking, Web 2.0
Snapchat has known for a long time that their platform could be monetized. That's why they turned down billions of dollars that were offered when Facebook attempted to purchase them. However, we hadn't seen many ways that Snapchat was actually pursuing these sorts of endeavors, apart from some occasional ads that have made their way into users' Snapchat apps. This week, however, things changed with the launch of Snapchat Discover, which will be offering content from brands such as CNN, ESPN, Comedy Central, and more.
Snapchat Discover will allow all sorts of different brands to deliver content to users and users can pick which brands they hope to see information from. These brands will be able to regularly launch their own ephemeral content for users to check out and Snapchat Discover will be regularly refreshed with new options for users to browse through. The featured brands will change from day to day. Snapchat Discover launched with CNN, Comedy Central, Cosmopolitan, Daily Mail, ESPN, Food Network, National Geographic, People, Vice, Yahoo News, and Warner Music Group, but these will change daily.
Snapchat is not requiring companies to pay to feature content on their app. The way that Snapchat Discover will work to generate money will be by selling ad space that runs alongside the content that is viewed through Snapchat Discover. For instance, CNN content appears alongside BMW ads, while Vice content shows up with ads for GrubHub. Snapchat Discover could be a real game-changer for the way different companies will be spreading information to their user base. Furthermore, being on Snapchat will allow these brands to expand their user base by offering content to a younger demographic, the group that most frequently uses Snapchat.

Home Lakers Look Back: 1985 NBA Finals and the Memorial Day Massacre
Lakers Look Back: 1985 NBA Finals and the Memorial Day Massacre
Dwight Howard, Golden State Rumors Shouldn't Be Worried About
In honor of Memorial Day, I thought it would be fun to look back on the 1985 NBA Finals, of which Game 1 was dubbed the Memorial Day Massacre. It was the Lakers and Celtics (who else?) in the NBA's final round, with both teams looking to earn yet another championship.
—–Check out the Lakers Nation store to get your LN gear and show off your Lakers pride!——
In Game 1, Boston beat the Lakers 148-114, officially dubbing the game the Memorial Day Massacre. In front of nearly 15,000 people at the Boston Garden, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar scored just 12 points while Magic Johnson pulled down just one rebound.
Boston had a 38-24 lead at the end of the first, and never looked back, sealing what was, at the time, the most lopsided victory in NBA Finals history.
Here's the box score (which consists mainly of just points) for both sides from the game, courtesy of NBA Stats.
Here's the video of the action, as well.
For the Lakers, they would bounce back nicely from the blowout win, defeating the Celtics in four of the next five games to win the series in six games, avenging a loss to Boston in the Finals from a season before. It was the first time in history that the Lakers won the NBA championship on the floor of the Boston Garden.
Looking back on this Memorial Day, what's your favorite Lakers championship year of all time? Be sure to sound off in the comments section below.

Josefina Turns Thirteen!
The Janaro family has another teenager!
Well, "technically" speaking...
Thirteen years ago, on that wacky-and-totally-unforeseen-day-that-we-never-dreamed-we-would-end-up-celebrating-every-year, October 26 in the year 2006, Josefina made her surprising (but necessary) early debut on the ex utero "platform" of life.
She had major health issues that required emergency surgery (and ultimately another emergency surgery months later) and ended up spending nearly seven months in the NICU. I have written about this story many times on this blog and even in my 2010 book Never Give Up: My Life and God's Mercy.
She is fine today. But she has always been a little bit on the small side for her age. Maybe she's just a small person, physically speaking. As I always say, she is the opposite of small when it comes to personality.
And that has been true since the beginning, when she was all big eyes and chubby cheeks, charming the NICU nurses (most of the time).
When I began this blog, she was only four years old. John Paul (our oldest) was thirteen. Now he's into his twenties and engaged. Agnese and Lucia are in university. Teresa just got her driver's licence. And now Jojo enters the teen years, in the strict sense, at least (according to the numbers). But she's hardly your average teenager.
She's still very much a kid. People could be forgiven for guessing that she's ten or eleven ("forgiven" in general, though maybe not forgiven by her😉). She's more on that level physically and in some other aspects too. But Jojo has been growing steadily since toddlerhood, and there's nothing to be concerned about.
There are some ways in which I think she's mature for her age. She can have serious and intent discussions, has a large perspective, shows a great capacity for empathy, and she's got big aspirations. It frustrates her a bit that she's small for her age, but she's going forward at her own pace. We are blessed to live in an environment (and be part of a school like John XXIII Montessori) were there is both guidance and freedom, where there's lots of friendships between kids of different ages (and plenty of interaction between generations).
There is still the dynamic with one's own peers, and that always has ups and downs. Every kid weathers the challenges of growing up in a different way.
Josefina has lots of adventures ahead of her. Meanwhile, I will continue to try to be the best Dad I can be for her (and for the others, because this task - these relationships - always matter, through the whole of life).
I love this family that has been given to me. They keep me young at heart. Again and again they humble me and show me that the meaning of my life is beyond myself. I need to pray. I need to follow Jesus, and trust in Him. But that's a wonderful thing to be reminded of. We are made for relationship with God. This is the glory of life.
Happy Birthday Josefina!!

Home Latest Stories Sea Isle City Ready to Offer Summer of Family-Friendly Events
Sea Isle City Ready to Offer Summer of Family-Friendly Events
Sea Isle's 2nd Annual Wedding Vow Renewal ceremony will be in Excursion Park. (Courtesy visitsicnj.com)
By Maddy Vitale
With a summer lineup of music, movie nights and other family-friendly entertainment, Sea Isle City is ready to not only draw families to the vacation destination to enjoy the pristine beaches but give them a host of activities to enjoy after the sun goes down.
"We have a lot of great things happening this summer. I don't think our lineup of events has ever been as big as it is this year," Sea Isle City Public Information Officer Katherine Custer said during a Tourism Commission meeting Thursday morning.
There will be five nights of city-sponsored events. Monday nights will feature classic movies for old film buffs. Tuesday nights get ready to dance the night away with the dance parties. On Wednesdays, the Chamber of Commerce and Revitalization will host an acoustic open mic night for teens. Thursdays will feature smaller band performances. On Fridays enjoy family movie nights and Saturdays will be an array of concerts. All the entertainment will be at the Excursion Park Band Shell.
"We are hearing a lot of positive feedback from people who are excited about the City's classic movie night and the other events that our Tourism Office is hosting at the Band Shell this summer," Custer said. "Everyone seems very happy about what's being offered in Sea Isle City in 2018."
Tourism Commission Chairman James Bennett complimented the events planned, designed to keep people of all ages entertained throughout the summer.
He said Sunday is left open for other things to occupy your time, including shopping. All the offerings will pack the itinerary of tourists and residents.
Concerts are part of the lineup of family-friendly summer entertainment.
Sea Isle tourism representative Diane Merson said they are expecting an exciting summer. She noted that a lot of work went into creating the entertainment lineup.
She said the chamber-sponsored open mic night will run from July 11 to Aug. 22 from 9 p.m. to 11 p.m.
During the meeting Mickey Coskey, owner of Seven Mile Publishing, the marketing consultant for the Tourism Commission, presented an update on the tourism commission marketing plan for this summer.
"We started with a New Year's resolution billboard," Coskey said.
Since then, the marketing campaign for "The Forecast us Fun!" included a new Sea Isle Visitors Guide, ads in both print and online and use of social media platforms as well as nine short, vacation videos, to highlight the attractions in Sea Isle this summer.
"Video is very important today and throughout the summer," Coskey said. "It is a great way to capture all the great things in Sea Isle."
She said she is turning her attention to updating information about the city online.
Although people go to www.visitsicnj.com directly, or to the city's website and www.sea-isle-city.nj.us, others do Google searches for Sea Isle. Some even search for Sea Isle on www.visitnj.org.
"There are so many places for people to write and talk about Sea Isle. About 71 percent of our traffic is organic," Coskey explained.
The goal is to market the beaches, but also emphasize the night activities at Excursion Park and the Promenade.
The city-sponsored beachcombing tours begin next month and cornhole tournaments will also be a fun activity for all ages.
"We need to market not just for the four or five hours a day people are on the beach, but also Excursion Park and the Promenade," Coskey said, adding that they could add new videos on Google.
They also plan to update Sea Isle information on the state's website.
"This is just something new and interesting we are working on for this summer," Coskey said.
And early indicators that it should be a busy summer include beach tag sales.
Custer noted that beach tag sales are going very well.
She said there has been a lot of "traffic" for purchases of beach tags, including ones for veterans.
She added, "We have a lot of people coming through the door."
Sea Isle has featured the family-friendly theme "The Forecast is Fun" for its summer tourism campaigns. (Courtesy visitsicnj.com)

From: History Channel
The celebrated actor Junius Brutus Booth immigrated to the United States from England in the early 1820s and settled his family in Harford County, Maryland, where the ninth of his 10 children, John Wilkes, was born on May 10, 1838. In 1846, it was revealed that Junius Booth had neglected to divorce his first wife before eloping with his second, Mary Ann, 25 years before. The scandal made an impression on young John Wilkes, who was fiercely proud of his illustrious family name.
After his father's death in 1852, Booth left his studies at the prestigious military school St. Timothy's Hall. In 1855, he followed his older brothers, Junius Jr. and Edwin, into the acting profession, making his debut in Shakespeare's Richard III at the Charles Street Theatre in Baltimore. Booth worked for a year at a Philadelphia theater before moving to the Marshall Theatre in Richmond, Virginia, where he became known for his dark good looks, his intensely physical, almost acrobatic, performances and his popularity with women.
In October 1859, Booth--who, like many Marylanders, supported slavery--was shocked and galvanized by the abolitionist John Brown's bloody raid on Harper's Ferry, Virginia. Booth briefly enlisted in the Richmond militia and witnessed Brown's hanging in December. That summer, he signed on as the leading man in a touring theater company. Booth was about to take on the part of Hamlet in October 1860 when he accidentally shot himself in the thigh with a co-star's pistol. Abraham Lincoln was elected president one month later, and Booth watched the South move toward secession while recuperating in Philadelphia.
Shortly after the outbreak of the Civil War, Lincoln declared martial law in Maryland as part of an effort to keep the state from seceding. Angry and frustrated, Booth nonetheless promised his mother he would never enlist in the Confederate Army. He continued his acting career, drawing crowds and impressing critics from St. Louis to Boston. In November 1863, he performed in The Marble Heart at Washington's Ford's Theatre. In the audience were President and Mrs. Lincoln. It was the only time Lincoln would see Booth perform.
In late May 1864, Booth invested in an oil company in western Pennsylvania. After seeing no immediate profit, he backed out of the operation, losing most of his savings. By that time, he had already begun working on his conspiracy to kidnap Lincoln. He performed less and less frequently, and by late 1864 had gone into debt. Booth attended Lincoln's second inaugural in early March with his secret fiancée Lucy Hale, the daughter of an abolitionist New Hampshire senator. In what would be his last performance, Booth appeared in front of a full house at Ford's in The Apostate on March 28, 1865.
Less than a week later, Confederate forces evacuated Richmond, and within two weeks, General Robert E. Leesurrendered his troops. As Washington exploded in celebration, Booth attended another Lincoln speech on April 11, reacting strongly to Lincoln's suggestion that he would pursue voting rights for blacks. Booth angrily told his co-conspirator, Davy Herold: "Now, by God, I'll put him through." Three days later, at Ford's Theatre, John Wilkes Booth made good on his word.

Poker's news
Alright, we think that it's time we talked about the number one player on the Global poker index. That man is Jason Mercier, one of the meanest and fiercest sharks in the world. With five bracelets under his belt and numerous money finishes, he's one of the most respected players in recent times. So, let's take a look at who is Jason Mercier exactly.
A Boy from Hollywood
No, not that Hollywood. Jason was born in Hollywood on the other side of continental States, in Florida. He was born on November 12th, 1986. He still lives in his hometown, although he tours the US and Europe frequently, looking for the next tournament to add to his belt.
Indeed, Jason has been active in Europe. He holds one European Poker Tour title, has three final table appearances and walked away from the table nine times. He won in San Remo, in season 4, where he earned some $1.3 million. He snatched the victory in front two very influential online poker stars, Dario Minieri and William Thorson. He also made it to the final table in the next season where he finished 6th.
But, time to examine Jason's World Series of Poker wins. The won five bracelets and made it to finals 17 times. With his five bracelets, he entered history as the 24th player to win at least that many. His first victory came in 2009, when he took the $1.500 Pot Limit Omaha tournament, earning about $200.000. he won the next bracelet two years later, taking the $5.000 Pot Limit Omaha (Six Handed) tournament, then another one in 2015 ($5.000 No Limit Hold'em). In 2016 he won two tournaments, the $10.000 2-7 No Limit Draw Lowball Championship and the $10.000 H.O.R.S.E. Championship.
Jason has also been successful in online poker, winning two events, one in 2010 ($1.050 No Limit Hold'em) and one in 2012 ($10.300 8-Game (High-Roller)). He also won five Spring Championship of Online Poker Titles, one in 2014 ($215 8-Game), three in 2015 ($2.100 Fl Badugi, NL 5 Card Draw and NL Hold'em (4-Max)) and one in 2016 ($215 PL Omaha Hi/Lo (6-Max)).
As far as his personal life goes, he married just last year in November. He married his girlfriend Natasha Barbour who is also an avid poker player and earns money exclusively through playing poker. Aside from this, Mercier doesn't reveal much about his life and stays out of the spotlight, like most poker players of his caliber do.

Q: What tools do you use to manage Change requests and Bug Reports The issue we have is for example the customer requests a change or reports a bug which initially gets inputed into our bug tracking software (TFS) but 10 emails back and forth later the initial description in the bug report is out of date. it's a pain to go each time and update it and most of the time it's not.
This becomes a headache as sometimes we can't give a status on a feature and the only way to know if it's been done is to run the application and see if it's there.
Is there a tool that can simplify  this process?
Thanks

A: Disclaimer: I am the CTO at Assembla
Assembla is a Project Management tool with integrated repositories (subversion, git, hg and perforce) with an integrated bug and issue management tool.
You can interact with each other in the system via @mentions or emails to get focus directly to the questions of your customer for your engineers.
Furthermore, your customers can follow the status of the fix, without having to ask, they can just view the status in the system.

A: As a point of clarification, it sounds like your process is flowing like so:
1- Client calls up "help desk" or whomever and requests a change to your software.
2- Call recipient inputs, verbatim, the request into your bug tracking system.
3- Recipient of bug contacts client and gets more details on the request.
4- After the details are worked out, often times the original request looks no longer like the actual request.
Does that seem right?
It sounds like you need to separate your bug tracking system and your CRM system and better train the people that communicate with the clients to ask better questions and log more details.

A: You should set up your bug tracking software to notify appropriate people each time some one touches the bug.  This way the "10 emails back and forth" are generated on changes from the software.
No, of course you don't add a client's email to the bug tracking software (JIRA, bugzilla, etc) but you do forward to the client the changes you think appropriate, and you do incorporate the client's requests into the description of the proposed fix.

A: FogBugz allows you to email the client through its interface, and will track correspondence through FogBugz.  It will only show the client the emails to or from them, but show internal users (developers) internal bug communications as well

Q: How to change transition style for popToRootViewController? I have a navigation-based app where I push several viewControllers (normal right to left) to create an event. When the user gets to the last screen and creates the event, I call...
[self.navigationController popToRootViewControllerAnimated:YES];

...to return to the first screen. This works okay, but when the transition animation is just a simple left to right.
Is there a way to change the transition style to be something other than left to right for just the popToRootViewController? I'd like it to look different than just going back to the previous screen.

A: Hope it helps!
[CATransaction begin];
[CATransaction setValue:(id)kCFBooleanTrue forKey:kCATransactionDisableActions];
CATransition *transition = [CATransition animation];
[transition setType:kCATransitionFade];
[self.navigationController.view.layer addAnimation:transition forKey:@"someAnimation"];
[self.navigationController popViewControllerAnimated:YES];
[CATransaction commit];

A: Supposing that we're talking about iOS 7+, you will need to implement UINavigationControllerDelegate protocol in your navigation controller. From there on, use
navigationController:animationControllerForOperation:fromViewController:toViewController: to provide a UIViewControllerAnimatedTransitioning conforming object that will perform your custom animation. You can take a look at UINavigationControllerDelegate docs for more info.

A: I guess instead of calling popToRootViewController you can do your own method (by subclassing UINavigationController, or doing a category or whatever you want)
and do something like that (the code will be different depending of where you will implement it, but here is the idea) :
UIViewController *rootVC = self.navigationController.topViewController;
[UIView animateWithDuration:1 animations:^{
    // Have fun doing what you want with the rootview
    [self.view addSubview:rootVC.view];
} completion:^(BOOL finished) {
    [self.navigationController popToRootViewControllerAnimated:NO];
}];
