Hypothetically, the alpine and high elevation moss flora reached central Mexico by migration from northern latitudes following the western mountain ranges. Study of 774 specimens belonging to eighteen species of Grimmia identified four patterns of distribution in Mexico: species restricted to the Neovolcanic Belt, those mainly distributed in the northwestern states, widely distributed taxa, and endemic species. Track analysis showed that the generic distribution indeed followed the western mountains. Modeling was introduced to determine the potential ranges for most Mexican species of Grimmia and review the migration hypothesis. The resulting potential distribution maps using maximum entropy show that several species have discontinuous ranges in the northwestern states. Other taxa are restricted to the Neovolcanic Belt, and still others extend their potential distribution to stations in southern Mexico and Guatemala. Although the original hypothesis proposed that the high altitude moss flora was derived from temperate North America may still be acceptable, the South American distribution of various species indicate that migration may have also proceeded from the south.

Reinstatement of the Fire Services Levy
We previously posted that on 30th May the NSW Government announced that it was going to defer the replacement of the NSW ESL with a Fire and Emergency Services Levy (FESL) to be paid alongside council rates until further notice.
The legislation required to allow ESL to be reinstated on insurance premiums passed through the Upper House of the NSW Parliament on 22 June 2017 and has now become law.
As a result, insurers are now providing notice that they will be reinstating the FSL charges on New Policies and Renewals. Whilst this is only trickling in and there is no mass announcement, it appears as though the charges will be reinstated from 1st of August 2017.
Unfortunately, it does not look like the rates will be slowly stepped back in as they were phased out, but will be reinstated at a level similar to the rates we had before it was announced that FSL was to be removed.
There are no standard FSL rates, and they will vary slightly between the insurers, however, they will be approximately:
Commercial Property - 36%
Domestic Property - 20%
Motor - 1%
Insurance companies will continue to work with the NSW Government and the NSW ESL Insurance Monitor to ensure a smooth reintroduction of the NSW ESL and the staff at Austbrokers City State will continue to provide our client's updated as we receive further information.
Please contact our office if you have any questions.

I've taken a couple of weeks off from the blogging world, thanks to work things and enjoying spring break with our kids. It's nice to be back today, and especially nice to introduce you to author Lisa Lickel. Lisa and I met through American Christian Fiction Writers and are both posters over at the Favorite PASTimes historical blog. She's also a regular contributor to other blogs that have great posts about writing and life in general. So, yes, she's a busy lady!
Here's the official short bio … Lisa Lickel is a Wisconsin writer who lives with her husband in a hundred and fifty-year-old house built by a Great Lakes ship captain. Surrounded by books and dragons, she writes inspiring fiction. Her novels include mystery and romance, all with a twist of grace. She has penned dozens of feature newspaper stories, short stories, magazine articles and radio theater. She is the editor in chief of Creative Wisconsin Magazine and loves to encourage new authors. Find her at LisaLickel.com.
Thank you, Leigh, for having me.
A recent message I wrote about attitude took a page from winning Super Bowl coach Mike McCarthy's playbook: when do you get measured for your Super Bowl ring? The fact that the coach had his players measured the night before they played and won probably didn't cause the players to win the game, but I'm sure it reminded them of the goal. Winning in this business means being read.
Being an author is always thrilling in one form or another: either we're riding high or we're on the down-swing of the bungee ride; the wind beneath our wings. The journey involves both trust and vulnerability. I write from my gut, spilling out my best words and phrases, sharing my dreams, my heart, in the hope of somebody (in the best Sally Field moment) will LIKE me! And tell all their friends.
What's new with me? I've written two novellas and will start another batch soon. I'm so delighted by the direction my new group blogs are taking. Check out thebarndoor.net and reflectionsinhindsight.wordpress.com. I've sold some short stories to Harpstring Magazine (check out writtenworldcommunications.com). I became the editor-in-chief of a Wisconsin literary magazine, I'll be leading two workshops in March and April; I'll be teaching a course for ACFW online in May, and my sales are picking up.
Great thoughts to leave us with, Lisa. Whether we're writers, readers, or just trying to get through life, we need to work on perspective and discipline. Sounds like it's definitely working for you, and it will be great to hear when some of your other projects find a publishing house. Thanks for stopping by today!
Thanks, Leigh, for inviting me! It's a busy time of year for us all, and I appreciate your kindness and encouragement and interacting with you at Favorite PASTimes too.
There aren't many people who commit to something and stick with it for as long as some of us writers must before we feel like we're moving in the right direction. Even then, I sometimes still think I'm crazy. But, hey, that's part of what lets me know I'm really a writer!
Hi, Tracy, and thanks for stopping by! Lisa and I have never met in person, but I hope we might have the chance to someday. She's one busy lady I could learn a lot from!
People are quiet this week – that's okay 🙂 I've had people stop at facebook to say hi too. Thanks again, Leigh. Some day we'll catch up in person. I'm having fun getting to meet some of my cyber-friends at conferences and book tables at the best surprise moments.

Bird Box Movie Review. What Do I Think of it, and Would I Buy it or Rent it??? Spoilers…duh.
Bird Box. I was at a cross road, when deciding to watch this movie. I wasn't sure if it was gonna be good, I'm a little skeptical of Netflix Originals, and I was afraid it was gonna copy A Quiet Place too much. In a way, all that came true.
The movie was better than I thought it was gonna be. I hadn't seen a trailer, just what friends and other people had told me, but from what I had heard it sounded a lot like John Krasinski's A Quiet Place. By the way, if you haven't checked out my Quiet Place blog post, click this link! But anyway, I decided to watch the movie because of two reasons: Sandra Bullock and John Malkovich.
I love these two actors deeply, and thought to myself, "If these two amazing actors were in it, how bad could it be?" The movie surprised me. It had an interesting story, that made me want to watch it. There was something interesting that happen to me while watching it, but we'll talk about that later. For now, let's get into the movie!
Please be warn that this won't make that much sense if you haven't seen the movie. I skip some parts in the story and mention some things that, if you haven't watched won't understand that well. Ok, lets go!
Sandra Bullock's character is rowing a boat down a river, to take her children to safety.
The basis of the film is staggered from two different time lines. One time line is Sandra Bullock's character, Malorie, when the creatures first attack. At this time she is pregnant with her son and is with her sister. In the second time line is five years later. The creatures have attacked, and it's just her and her children trying to escape towards a safe haven that is free of these creatures.
Malorie, five years after the creature's attack, is trying to take her two kids towards a place that is supposedly safe from the monsters. The fastest way to get to this place is by crossing the river. The problem is…if you look at the monsters, you die. The river also homes the rapids, which are a dangerous part of the journey where you "must look" to see where you're going. After the rapids you follow the sound of birds until you reach the haven.
Now, hearing this made me think, "Wow, that's a very specific, detailed, and loose way to find this safe haven. I felt like this was too loose, and the worse part about this, is that you aren't given a chance to worry about these people. You don't know them. All you know is that you got a mom, a boy, and a girl who are crossing a river and can't look outside or they'll die, and the mom is a very paranoid lady. Like seriously, twitching and pulling out a gun every time you hear someone.
So…you don't really get a chance to build a relationship with these three characters, but when it flashes back to five years ago it's a different story. You have Malorie trying to survive with the people in the house. What's neat about this, is that it's much more relate able. If this apocalypse was actually happening, this is more accurate to how it would happen, but in my opinion the show was moving a little too fast. Your connecting with Malorie, yes, but you didn't even have time to connect with her now dead sister.
We loved her horse obsessed sister! But do we really?
But as the movie goes on, you begin to relate to these people. Like Tom, played by Trevante Rhodes. Tom is the marine who is doing what he can do keep the group alive. Or how about Douglas, played by John Malkovich. Douglas is the touchy alcoholic who's wife died. Each character has a part that is relate able, and that's why the flashback portion of the show is more enjoyable in the beginning. Even if people are dying, killing each other, or just laying dead on the street.
Now, around the half way mark of this movie, I quit watching it. I only wanted to watch the parts with Tom and Douglas, not Malorie rowing a boat for a few minutes and giving a serious talk to her kids. To me that wasn't exciting enough because I hadn't build a big enough relationship with the kids. Malorie I was beginning to grow on, but the kids were just fresh meat…sorry, weird analogy, but anyway, I ended up finishing the movie. And if you've been reading this, and been thinking, he really doesn't like this movie, here's where you're wrong.
When I decide to continue to watch the show, I went with a different mindset. I was so curious what was gonna happen that I had to keep watching. I was invested. TO LATE TO TURN BACK!
I kept watching, I began to enjoy the show more. I knew the characters now! Watching them fight their way to the grocery store or fighting off a psychopathic monster worshiper (A.K.A. Gary), is a lot more fun now, because I was invested with the characters. Also, I had grown to like Malorie's character a lot more now!
So as I kept watching the show I began to enjoy the concept. The idea of not being able to see was actually really cool, and having psychopathic monster worshipers (That's what I'm calling them) is pretty cool. They bring a new thrill to the movie. Now, you can't just see the monster, but you've got to figure out who's good and who's bad. This was an intense struggle that I began to enjoy.
So as the show continued, I realized that not all the kids were Malorie's, but one was also Cheryl's too. Maybe I should have figured this out sooner, but I began to like this a lot. It explained why Malorie wouldn't let her son look outside when they neared the rapids. I think this was important because It showed that Malorie was willing to let all of them die, than to let some of them live. I know that sounds a little weird, but I'm writing this at two in the morning and I'm beginning to fall asleep. 🙂
But this shows that Malorie is taking Tom's advice, and is not just surviving, but living. As Captain B. McCrea said from WALL-E,
I don't want to survive! I want to live!
Malorie is beginning to learn how to live again, not just survive. Watching Malorie's character development, is enjoyable. That may not be the best word to use, since it's a thriller, but I enjoyed watching her grow into an awesome mom.
By the way, I would like to mention that I think it was clever having the birds play the part they did in the movie. They were unique and interesting to watch, and I'm glad that they were in the movie.
And I got to say, one of my favorite parts of the show, even though it's horrible, is when Tom sacrifices himself for the family. That scene, is amazing. The way he's like screw it, and opens his eyes and begins to shoot those psychopathic monster worshipers was truly an amazing moment. Even when his eyes began to turn towards the monster, how he was able to shoot the leader was awesome. Tom was by far one of my favorite characters in this movie.
So in the end, would I watch this movie again?
Yes. I think this movie was well scripted and did a good job of making you clench every time you saw someone without a blind fold. I do think the movie took to long to get you invested with the characters, but I think wants they did, that the movie really picked up, and became a great movie. Netflix Originals can scare me sometimes. They're, usually, either really good or really bad…in my experience. But I did enjoy this movie in the end. It left me thinking, and that's not always a good thing, but in this case, it was.
And the nice thing is, you don't have to buy it or rent it, if you have Netflix (which we all know you do). But if you had to buy or rent it, I would buy this movie. I think it brings a certain character and style that more films need today. So thank y'all for reading, and as always, I'll see y'all next time!

Set on the edge of the Georges River, visitors to Como will be treated to spectacular views, waterfront dining and secluded picnic spots.
Como Pleasure Grounds were established in 1895 and the promise of the precinct remains intact, as it remains one of the top spots for a riverside picnic. More than a century later, the park serves as an idyllic backdrop to your day, with the dappled waters of the Georges River still a major drawcard.
Parents in-the-know rise early and pack the skateboards and scooters so their children can do the loop around to the Como Swimming Complex, the free public baths that are only open in summer. The tidal baths are located on the river below the swimming complex and worth splashing about in over summer.
If it's too cold to swim, stake out a table so you can stay and play all day at the playground that hugs the knoll on the banks of the Georges River. As for the many pleasures on offer at Como Pleasure Grounds, it starts with that juxtaposition of water alongside pretty native gardens, barbecues, tables and seating areas as well as an entertaining playground for the kids. Budding boaties can also hire a pleasure craft from the marina, which is the gateway to the Georges River.
The Como Marina is another romantic setting overlooking the river. Time your visit for the second Sunday of the month where you can book brunch at the Como Marina Café and then have a wander around the waterfront markets. The masses swarm to this monthly market mingling amid the food stalls such as Bring the Falafel and Istanbul Street Bazaar, which sells ceramics.
Active types will also enjoy a light jog over the Como Bridge all the way to Oatley, the leafy suburb that also has breathtaking views of the river. The Como Bridge was built in 1885 and once used as the rail link across the Georges River. It's the longest single-track lattice girder bridge in NSW and is an accessible walk for families with young children in tow.
A sweet way to conclude your day in Como would be to head to the historic Como Hotel which locals claim was a favourite haunt of bush poet Henry Lawson, who lived in the small town during the 1900s. Drift off into a poetic reverie of your own over pub grub such as the salt and pepper squid or crisp pork belly with caramelised carrot and cumin puree.

The majority of the 1240 + members of the Aroostook Band of Micmacs live within Aroostook County, located in Northern Maine. As far as we know, from time immemorial the Micmacs have occupied the lands south and east of the Gulf of Saint Lawrence, the Maritime Provinces and other regions along the Atlantic Seaboard of Northeastern America. The Micmac Nation, today, is composed of seven districts with 29 bands and a population of approximately 30 thousand.
The Micmac language is an Algonquin one, related to that of the Micmacs' southern neighbors, the Maliseets, Passamaquoddy, Penobscot and Abenaki. All these northeastern tribes are culturally and linguistically related. Collectively, this group is called the "Wabanaki", which means "People of the Daybreak", or "Dawn land People" (wabun meaning "light" or "white", aki meaning "earth").
Like other tribes of Maine, the Micmac, continue to produce a variety of traditional baskets made of splint ash wood, birch bark and split cedar. The Micmac are recognized as excellent producers of porcupine quill on birch bark boxes and wooden flowers of strips of maple, cedar and white birch.
On November 26, 1991 after complex legal maneuvering and political lobbying the Aroostook Band of Micmacs finally achieved Federal Recognition with the passage of the Aroostook Band of Micmacs Settlement Act. This act provided the Community with acknowledgment of its tribal status in the United States. The Aroostook Band of Micmacs have succeeded in rejuvenating a part of the Micmac Nation.

Raining on Jerry Hinnen's parade (not that I want to)
I enjoyed reading Jerry Hinnen's SEC preview which he posted today – for one thing, he's been struggling over many of the same issues that I've batted around in my head the last four weeks and I've always been a big fan of letting somebody else do the heavy lifting if possible – but, try as I might and with as much as I find in what he writes that I agree with, I can't quite bring myself across the finish line that he erects:
I'm predicting that either Georgia or Auburn will make it to Atlanta at one of the Big Two's expense.
I like that (especially because I agree with Jerry that Georgia's a more likely bet to win the East than Auburn to win the West), but I don't think it's gonna happen this season, for more than a couple of reasons.
Der Gap. Unfortunately, as Jerry notes, the story in the SEC last season was the two teams at the top and the yawning divide between them and the rest of the conference. I also agree that the margin is likely to shrink in both divisions. It's just that I don't expect it to shrink enough. Think about it for a minute: both divisions were won by four game margins last season, so to erase that completely this year, a school would have to engineer a three-game swing against either Alabama or Florida (or a two-game swing with a win in the head-to-head match). I don't see it in either division. It looks much more like a two-season project to me.
The Tigers have to claw. Auburn has the kind of schedule in 2010 that would make Houston Nutt envious, but it still has a tougher row to hoe than Georgia in that it has to fight its way to the top with two other schools also looking to catch Alabama (and Arkansas, as Jerry notes, with its offense has a puncher's chance to win any game on its schedule). On paper, Georgia looks to have only South Carolina to duke it out with to run down the Gators.
3-17. Lose the Cocktail Party and Georgia has to play the rest of its conference schedule two games better than Florida. How likely is that to happen?
Auburn's defensive depth. Yes, the Tigers enjoyed a terrific recruiting class this season. But it's a stretch to think that you can count on a bunch of true freshmen to step in and be major contributors on defense. And starting out, Auburn looks thin on the front seven.
Georgia's defensive changes. Count me as somebody who believes that Aaron Murray is going to absorb all the turnover direction he's been receiving from his coaches and take it to heart. Georgia's offense should be good enough. But it's just not realistic to expect a smooth defensive transition with three new coaches and a new scheme, if for no other reason than some old habits die hard. It'll get better as the season progresses, but somebody's going to catch Georgia early on, and as I've already noted, the Dawgs don't exactly have a big margin for error with the Gators this season.
Gary Crowton really can't be that bad an offensive coordinator, can he? Okay, maybe he can. But, damn, LSU is a talented squad that's been no worse than third in the conference in recruiting over the past three or four seasons. There are certainly more highly ranked players suiting up in Baton Rouge than in either Auburn or Fayetteville.
Bottom line – I hope he's right, but I expect that Jerry's a year early here.
Shuffling the defensive line
Marc Weiszer has the new two-deep roster here. No earth shattering developments, except on the d-line:
LE Brandon Wood, Abry Jones
N DeAngelo Tyson, Justin Anderson, Kwame Geathers
RE Demarcus Dobbs, Kiante Tripp
Wood has moved ahead of Jones, Tyson is back at #1 at tackle… and, hello, Kiante Tripp.
I don't know if this is how Garner is keeping his players on their toes, or himself, but I suspect this isn't the last change on the depth chart we'll see.
Monday brunch buffet
Season's start is getting close enough, you can taste it.
Todd Grantham is ready.
When Bacarri Rambo talks about "hit and run", he's not referring what may happen when you're behind the wheel of a gold Chevy Impala.
I guess soccer fans handle their beer better than college football fans do.
This isn't what it sounds like: "I look for this to be one of the weakest football seasons we've had in while."
This conclusion about strength of schedule – "the trend is essentially saying that the harder the schedule, the better a team's expected performance" – sure seems counterintuitive to me.
Though Kansas has a quarterback with the less than fortunate name of Pick, it's worth noting that Vanderbilt's backup quarterback is aptly named Funk.
The latest victim of Negative Grohmentum is… Negative Grohmentum.
Mike Hugenin's quarterback rankings have Alabama at #20 and Florida at #21. I'm beginning to think that Greg McElroy is the Rodney Dangerfield of the SEC.

I explain it all here.
"These are my people"
I was sent something by a reader that I was saving until Saturday morning, but since Barnhart posted about it this morning, here 'tis – a letter from Erk Russell to his 1980 team, just before the start of camp.
Erk Letter
If you don't want to click on the link, here's the text:
Gentlemen (and Linemen),
The football season of '80 will be my seventeenth as a Georgia Bulldog. During this time there have been many thrilling Saturdays of competition, each with it's individual memories, because each game has it's own personality.
There are two Saturday traditions and experiences which have remained basically the same throughout the years for me and I would like to share them with you.
The first one concerns the THE RAILROAD TRACK CROWD. These are my people because they love the 'Dogs almost as much as I do. Oh, I know they do some crazy things- like turn over our opponents's buses sometimes and now and then they throw one another down the bank and into the street below. But they stamp out Kudzu and they pull for us to win and that ain't bad.
If you can get off the bus to cheers of THE RAILROAD TRACK CROWD and walk down those steps to the dressing room and not be inspired to play football as best you possibly can, something important is missing beneath the Georgia jersey you wear. It is impossible not to be inspired. They choke me up!
The season of 1980 will be the last for THE RAILROAD TRACK CROWD. A great Georgia tradition will have passed with the new addition to our stadium. The view from the tracks will be no more.
Your team will be the last Georgia Team to be greeted and cheered by THE RAILROAD TRACK CROWD. Wouldn't it be fitting if their last team was also the best Georgia Team ever? Think about it!
Another Saturday tradition which has meant so much to me over the years can be stated very simply. "THERE AIN'T NOTHING LIKE BEING A BULLDOG ON SATURDAY NIGHT- – – – -AFTER WINNING A FOOTBALL GAME." I mean like whipping Tennessee's ass to start with, then ten more and then another one.
This is the game plan. We have no alternate plan.
Erskine Russell
Assistant Head Football Coach
P.S.–Run!
He called it, didn't he?
If that doesn't get you pumped up for the start of the season, I give up, folks.
Just thought I'd ask.
The SEC Power Poll (nifty new logo, by the way) is asking its voters to take part in a preseason poll – in this case, not to rank the teams, but the teams' uniforms. So I thought I'd get your opinion on the matter. Which do you think are the best and worst looking uniforms in the conference?
There actually is an objective measurement for "worst", believe it or not. It's this:
Like the sun, it's dangerous to stare directly at this.
At this point, what else can he say?
I certainly don't feel sorry for Steve Spurrier, but I'm beginning to appreciate why he continues to insist that his team hasn't been distracted in preseason camp. It's about the only line he can take.
Consider what he's been working through:
Weslye Saunders has been suspended for almost a week with no indication when he might return.
Lingering injuries to key performers like fullback Pat DiMarco, a team captain, and linebacker Shaq Wilson, the Gamecocks' leading tackler last season.
Defensive coordinator Lorenzo Ward, in charge of the secondary, worked Tuesday without starting safety Akeem Aguste and backup cornerback C.C. Whitlock.
Defensive lineman and captain Ladi Ajiboye was late to that session because of what assistant coach in charge of defense Ellis Johnson said were issues about the hotel.
South Carolina hasn't heard from the NCAA yet, but expects to before its opener Thursday night against Southern Miss.
And that doesn't even count the self-imposed uncertainty of the quarterback battle between Garcia and Shaw.
Of course, if this is really what Southern Miss is counting on, all the distractions in the world won't matter.

Michael has a thorough and gentle touch. Working with him brings both restoration to the body and further insight into the relationship between life choices and internal wellness. I am impressed with his versatility of knowledge and ability to make choices in the moment that call from this depth of approach to address the patient where they are physically and mentally. He is responsive to the needs of the patient and is communicative in his practice. I find this very valuable in a practitioner. This dialogue and enthusiasm for the art of healing allows for a safe and warm environment for one to bring their disharmonies of any level to him for assistance while empowering the ability of a patient to make choices that align with higher quality of life while off the table. I especially recommend seeking his hand for the healing of athletes, performers and dancers. As a dancer myself, I have found Michael's treatments of injuries effective and considerate. He has had an incredible background of working with elite performers in NYC, though of course has the mindset and foundation to treat patients with a spectrum of concerns with an eye for personal attention.
I went in to see Michael after friends suggested I try acupuncture to help with a back injury. He had a great calming manner, and used a combination of treatments to help relieve the area, including cupping and electrical stimulation on some of the needles, which I'd never heard of before, but really calmed the muscles.
The space is also very welcoming, the receptionist is very warm and the room is bright and peaceful with views of the greenpoint waterfront.
Thanks for the treatment! Looking forward to the next session!
Michael is magical. I even hesitate to write this review for fear this secret gets out. He has a wonderful bedside manner, takes every ailment I throw at him and addresses it successfully.

Israeli anti-drone company sees spike in interest

Product manager Asaf Lebovitz from the Israeli anti-drone company Skylock, explains their system's main unit at the company's offices in Petah Tikvah, Israel, Tuesday, Dec. 25, 2018. The Israeli technology company said Tuesday that business is booming after the chaos that erupted at Gatwick Airport last week, wreaked by rogue drones that exposed the vulnerability of major airports to outside interference. (AP Photo/Sebastian Scheiner)
JERUSALEM (AP) — An Israeli technology company says its anti-drone system is drawing major interest after rogue unmanned aircraft sowed chaos at London's Gatwick Airport last week.
The Israeli company Skylock is among a growing industry specializing in detecting and downing intruder drones by "jamming" them, or disrupting their frequencies.
The company said Tuesday it saw a 40 percent spike in inquiries into its product since the Gatwick episode.
Product manager Asaf Lebovitz said the company, which emerged to target militant drone use in Syria, has shifted focus to commercial applications and has been approached by airports in North America and Europe.
Noam Milstein, drone operations chief for Israel's Civil Aviation Authority, said such systems are "obviously becoming crucial to prevent drone incursions from those who don't care about the regulations in place."

See the advantage of having a locally managed onsite phone system, but want the convenience of the cloud? Consider deploying both.
The growing popularity of software as a service (SaaS) reflects the convenience, scalability, and security of cloud-based applications like email, business process apps, and storage. Virtual phone systems delivered completely via the cloud, like ShoreTel Sky, are growing rapidly year-over-year as businesses recognize the time and money saved when application upgrades, maintenance, and end-user support are handled by the service provider, not by internal IT staff.
WHY CHOOSE A HYBRID PHONE SYSTEM?
As a visionary provider of IP PBX phone systems and unified communications applications, ShoreTel sees the future of communications architecture as combining the best of two delivery methods: a hybrid cloud communications platform that delivers the resiliency, control and availability of an on-site "hardware-based" phone system with the immediacy, ease and flexibility of virtual PBX applications delivered from the cloud.
One hybrid deployment model currently available from ShoreTel boosts worker productivity by giving them immediate access to new applications-as-a-service delivered via the cloud. The new applications streamline voice messaging by transcribing audio messages into text, and integrate faxing services into the digital communications workflow. By deploying these applications via the cloud, you can leverage your investment in a ShoreTel Premises system by adding new phone system functionality with no additional phone system capital expense. There's no hardware to install, no truck rolls for service implementation, and no upgrades to manage—across your entire enterprise, no matter how many locations you serve.
One hybrid deployment model currently available from ShoreTel boosts worker productivity by giving them immediate access to new applications-as-a-service delivered via the cloud.
Hybrid communications solutions that serve applications from the cloud are new to many IT managers. With ShoreTel Connect, potential security and privacy concerns can be addressed through superior system design and network operations. ShoreTel understands the concerns many enterprises with in-house solutions may have about opening data up to the cloud. Communications between premises and the ShoreTel cloud occur over an HTTPS connection and email.

Lubbock Bond Package One Step Closer to November Ballot
Jacob Coats
Jacob Coats Published: August 5, 2021
Broadway Street, Google Street View
In a special meeting on Wednesday, August 4, the Lubbock City Council voted unanimously to pass the First Reading of an ordinance which would place a proposed $174.575 million bond package on the November ballot.
At a future meeting, if the City Council passes the Second Reading of the bond ordinance, the bond will be added to the ballot for the November 2 General Election. Lubbock voters will then decide whether or not to grant the City of Lubbock money for improvements to local infrastructure.
The nearly $175 million will come from a two-cent tax increase on Lubbock residents. EverythingLubbock reports that for a resident owning a median home in the city, it is around a $9 increase over the next five years.
The proposed infrastructure improvements include rebuild projects on 34th Street from Avenue Q to Interstate 27, Interstate 27 to Avenue A, and Quaker Avenue to Slide Avenue.
Street widening projects were also proposed;
Erskine Street from four lanes to five between Avenue S and I
82nd Street from two lanes to three between I-27 and MLK Boulevard
114th Street from three lanes to five between Indiana Avenue and city limits, east of University Avenue
114th Street from two lanes to five between Frankford Avenue and Slide Road
Milwaukee Avenue from two lanes to five between CR 6430 and 4th Street
MLK Jr. Boulevard from two lanes to three between Loop 289 and 82nd Street
University Avenue from three lanes to seven between 98th Street and 114th Street
98th Street from two lanes to three between Upland Avenue and Alcove Avenue
Upland Avenue from two lanes to five between 4th Street and 19th Street
Also nearly a quarter of the total bond will go to improving Broadway Street. The City is looking to either replace the red bricks or pave over them with red concrete.
The General Election will be on November 2. Early voting begins on October 14 and the last day to register to vote is October 4.

'I find artworks, especially paintings, most interesting when they seek to convey something to the viewer that is not entirely translatable through language, or even reason. When art fulfils its promise, it expands something within us, and it offers some kind of truth – whatever construction that may be.'
The German artist Daniel Richter first came to prominence in the 1990s when he transitioned into fine art from the world of music, where he began his career designing posters and record sleeves for bands. His early paintings were abstract, characterised by intensely colourful forms that lie somewhere between graffiti and intricate ornamentation. Figures began appearing in his works around 2002, often inspired by reproductions from newspapers or history books and rendered in bright colours that create an atmosphere of heightened awareness and artificiality. Ever the innovator, his recent works tread a path between figuration and abstraction, typified by the chaotic entanglements of fragmented bodies against simplified chromatic backgrounds.
Influenced by the legacy of Symbolists such as James Ensor and Edvard Munch, Richter combines motifs from art history, mass media and pop culture to create idiosyncratic, surreal worlds. These can sometimes be read in political terms, as in works that reference themes of immigration or surveillance, but they evade any single interpretation. He uses vivid chromatic contrasts and abstracted patterning to convey a disquieting emotional tenor, heightened by the temporal and spatial indeterminacy of scenes that refuse to resolve into a coherent time, place, or even pictorial space. The same is true of his contoured colour fields, which are reminiscent of maps in an atlas but do not correspond to any specific region. The artist describes them as an 'encirclement, a sort of pressing, entwining, squeezing', which conveys a strong sense of confrontation and flux.
In Richter's recent large-scale canvases, anthropomorphic figures are set against flat gradations of colour that recall polychromatic fantasy landscapes but evade spatial orientation or understanding. As he explains, 'My concern is with the surface, this flat, tangled, never-changing scheme of figure constellations, in and out.' Outlined expressively in black oil stick, the splayed limbs and gaping mouths convey an aggressive carnality that is heightened by Richter's bold use of contrasting colour. 'The dynamic in my work is mainly based on pushing and shoving, or on elements that are being confronted by each other – mingling, pushing, pulling,' he says. Despite the underlying violence, the works convey a touching sensuality and beauty that counterbalances their restless energy.
Born in Eutin, Schleswig-Holstein, Richter lives and works in Berlin. He studied at the Hochschule für bildende Künste in Hamburg from 1992–96 under Werner Büttner – one of the protagonists, along with Martin Kippenberger, of the revival of expressive trends in painting during the 1980s – and later worked as assistant to Albert Oehlen. Comprehensive solo exhibitions of his work have been held at the Kunsthalle zu Kiel and Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen, Düsseldorf (both 2001); National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa (2005); Hamburger Kunsthalle and Kunstmuseum Den Haag (both 2007); CAC Málaga and Denver Art Museum (both 2008); and Kestner Gesellschaft, Hanover (2011). More recently, the Schirn Kunsthalle, Frankfurt hosted a retrospective (2014), while a monographic exhibition travelled to Camden Art Centre, London; 21er Haus, Vienna; and Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, Humlebæk, Denmark (2016–17). Richter's work was also shown in the group exhibition Radical Figures: Painting in the New Millennium at the Whitechapel Gallery, London, in 2020, and in 2022, a solo exhibition was held at the Ateneo Veneto, Venice, coinciding with the 59th Venice Biennale.

The U.S. Army and Raytheon Company successfully test fired an AIM-9X Block II missile from the Army's ground-based Indirect Fire Protection Capability Increment 2-I (IFPC 2-I) Block 1 Multi-Mission Launcher (MML).
AIM-9X is traditionally fired from aircraft toward aerial targets and this test demonstrated that the latest AIM-9X can be used in both air-to-air combat and now, without modification, in ground-based air defense.
The AIM-9X missile first locked onto an unmanned aerial system (UAS) before launch, and then intercepted and destroyed the UAS, which was flying 1,500 meters above ground level.

The outcome when printing a picture or a photo on a campaign sheet is fairly creative and gives the picture an exceptional look which no Photoshop or any picture control strategy can imitate.
Canvas printing is done on a genuine woven canvas made out of cotton or a blend of poly-cotton (a similar material utilized by craftsman on paintbrush painting) and printed by the advanced printer or at the end of the day, by an inkjet printer simply like you have at home.
Customary methods for canvas imprinting available or online could finish up costing you an extensive sum, furthermore, when you hand over the picture to an outsider you have no more command over its last look.
There is another method for canvas imprinting in which you print your canvas yourself utilizing your inkjet home printer and it is as straightforward as that. As such, canvas printing is accomplished by utilizing uncommonly planned covered canvas sheets in A4 or A3 estimate (for these that have an A3 printer) that are perfect with your very own home printer.
Preceding printing, you get a lot of chances to alter the picture, changing its hues, its shades and applying creative channel utilizing any number of photograph altering programming.
The canvas sheets are extraordinarily covered with a matt wrap up that empowers the inkjet printer to print a high-goals picture in photographic quality legitimately on the canvas. All from the solace of your own home and at a far less expensive cost.
Taking this to the following dimension, clients will regularly examine their work of art and recreate it on a canvas. At times they consolidate a photographic picture on the canvas and afterward, they will include acrylic painting onto it, so it would appear that it is a representation painting as opposed to a blend between the two.
The inkjet canvas sheets have a waterproof covering and they are good with all inkjet printers utilizing either both color and shade inks. To improve the strength and waterproof properties of your work, you can apply a covering of fixative splash. The giant fixative is helpful for shielding the print from residue, water (when cleaned off with a soggy material) and improves the completion as it comes in matt, silk or reflexive completion. For the best services, you can visit just goto cheap canvas printing.
Actually, paying little heed to the manner by which you have chosen canvas printing (on the web, available or at home) fixative shower is an absolute necessity have.

Husband of dayhome operator found guilty of assaulting 2 children
The husband of a Calgary dayhome operator has been convicted of assaulting two children, including a six-year-old boy who told police being beaten "made my heart so sad."
Child victim says beatings by Byron Langager 'made my heart so sad'

Byron Langager, 37, a father of three and husband of a dayhome operator, was found guilty of two counts of assault on children who were five years old and 19 months old at the time. (Facebook)
Byron Langager, 37, a father of three, was found guilty of two counts of assault Thursday by provincial court Judge Catherine Skene.
The details of the crimes come from Skene's lengthy written decision following a trial in July.
The two child victims were five years old and 19 months old at the time of the assaults. Their identities are protected by a publication ban.
Skene identifies them throughout her decision as A, 5, and T, 19 months. Langager assaulted A in the summer of 2018 and T on March 11, 2019.

Langager was arrested on July 15, 2019, and charged with assault.
He has sporadic employment as an electrician but often helped his wife in the dayhome.
One afternoon in the summer of 2018, A's grandmother picked up the boy and his sister from Little Arc Angels Dayhome in southeast Calgary.
She testified that he immediately ran out of the home and his usual cheerful demeanour changed. He was quiet, uptight, clingy and hard to make smile.
The grandmother took the kids swimming and noticed "red, angry marks" on A's back. The marks were in a row. He refused to answer questions about how he got the marks.
After swimming, the marks had turned to dark blue and purple bruises, which seemed to be "very, very tender."
Parents learn of Langager's arrest
Around that time, A began refusing to go to the dayhome. His personality changed, according to his parents. A began having anger issues and slept with his parents.
A's father also noticed bruises on his son — from the middle of his legs all the way up to his spine.
Bruises in the shape of fingerprints were noted by both parents.
A left the dayhome in August 2018.
In late March or early April of 2019, a friend of A's father called and told him Langager had been arrested. It was at that point that A's father decided to question his son about the bruises.
'He was scared'
A told his parents that Langager, whom the boy called Byron, had hit him.
"He said that he used to take him into the basement and hit him there," the mother said in her testimony.
"He said that he was scared and then he cried."
A told his father he didn't say anything when it happened because "he didn't want to get in trouble."
The parents also questioned A's sister, who had also been at the dayhome. She said she just got put in timeouts, that it was just A who was "in trouble with Byron."
'He smacked me so hard'
The family took the boy to the Calgary Child Advocacy Centre, where Det. Amy Spence got the same version of events.
"He been so mean," the boy said on a videotaped interview.
"I got a lot of owies on my knees from him … he smacked me so hard, I got a lot of owies."
"It made my heart so sad."
Abuse of T
On March 11, 2019, T's father picked up the toddler from the Little Arc Angels Dayhome. He was early and Langager, rather than his wife, did the handover with T.
T's father testified that Langager seemed caught off guard and surprised to see him early. He was stuttering and nervous, according to the father.
"Byron showed me some red markings behind T's ear and a mark on — along the right side of his chest," explained the father.
Concerned, T's dad suggested he might take his son to a walk-in clinic. Langager advised the father not to go, saying children bruised easily.
T's father ignored the advice and took his son to a clinic. There, the doctor said the marks were burst blood vessels.
Child abuse expert testifies
Later that day, T's mother took him to the children's hospital where they said the marks were petechiae, caused by blood leaking through tiny blood vessels, capillaries, at the surface of the skin.
A child abuse expert doctor who treated T at the hospital said she was concerned the injury was inflicted.
Dr. Jennifer D'Mello was also worried about the pattern of the injury, which covered T's forehead, face, ears, neck and chest.
"It was almost like you could draw a line where about that line he had tons and tons of petechiae," said D'Mello in her testimony.
"I think the pressure was applied … circumferentially, so went around his body in that line above which the petechiae reflects that he had increased pressure to the blood vessels."
Langager's testimony 'vague' and evasive'
Langager testified in his own defence suggesting that T had been injured when he tried to save the boy, who he said had choked on a banana. It was a story Langager never told Dr. D'Mello or the child's father when the injuries were brought up.
In his explanation of A's injuries, Langager said he had put A in a restraint, "just like a hug" during a temper tantrum.
Judge Skene found Langager's testimony was "conveniently vague," evasive and riddled with inconsistencies.
"He was not a credible witness," said the judge. "Neither was Mr. Langager a reliable witness."
"I find that Mr. Langager did assault both children," wrote Skene.
Defence lawyer Tyson Dahlem declined to comment as the case is still before the courts.
Prosecutor Vicki Faulkner said a date for sentencing will be set next week but likely won't take place until early 2021 because a pre-sentence report must still be completed.

WCSD confirms new case of 'whooping cough' at Damonte Ranch High School
The Washoe County Health District says three cases were confirmed and two others (including the most recent case) are considered 'probable.'

Another case of whooping cough was reported at Damonte Ranch High School on Wednesday, according to the Washoe County School District.
School officials confirmed that the new case of whooping cough, officially known as pertussis, is under investigation. The school district also sent out a letter to parents with information on how to prevent whooping cough.
"Recently the Washoe County Health District became aware of an additional student at Damonte Ranch High School that was diagnosed with pertussis (whooping cough)," school officials said in the letter to parents.
According to Scott Oxarart, spokesperson for the Washoe County Health District, three cases were confirmed, while the other two were considered "probable."
That includes the most recent case of whooping cough reported at Damonte Ranch High School.
Related: Whooping cough outbreak: 19 unvaccinated students temporarily unenroll from Damonte Ranch
"Ultimately, a confirmed case meets certain criteria for pertussis that is more definite, whereas a probable (case) is still a very high likelihood (enough we count it and act on it) but does not have as strong of evidence to prove as a confirmed case (like certain symptoms and laboratory evidence)," Oxarart said in an emailed statement on Wednesday.
The outbreak previously forced 19 unvaccinated students to unenroll from class during the incubation period. Those students were required to wait 21 days from the last student diagnosis before they could return to campus.
But if another student is diagnosed, the clock is restarted — potentially dragging out their absences.
The outbreak also previously triggered a staffing shortage at the high school in south Reno
Symptoms commonly appear seven to 10 days after exposure and can last four to 21 days.
Early symptoms of whooping cough can include a mild cough, runny nose, and low-grade fever. The cough may worsen into fits of rapid coughs throughout one to two weeks.
Washoe County School District sends parents letters in response to new whooping cough case at Damonte Ranch High School.
The coughing fits could also lead to vomiting, and those infected may also hear a "whoop" noise following the fits.
The illness may also cause a pause in breathing, also known as apnea, in babies. It is often milder in teens and adults and among those who have been vaccinated.
Persons at higher risk include infants, pregnant women, and individuals with a weakened immune system. It can also be severe and potentially life-threatening to babies and young children.
Complications in babies and young children could lead to pneumonia, seizures, and encephalopathy (a disease of the brain). Meanwhile, complications in older age groups can include difficulty sleeping, pneumonia and rib fracture.
The illness can spread from person to person by coughing or sneezing. Individuals with pertussis are infectious for the first three weeks after the coughing starts and until they have completed antibiotic treatment.
According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, whooping cough may be prevented with a vaccine.

Crazy ABT Audi RS3 Reaches Over 430hp
A breathless session saw a quite staggering 23 cars blanketed by just eight tenths of a second with positions changing at almost every moment. Such was the competitiveness that the ballast-laden VW of Jason Plato could only manage 22nd on the grid, although the double champion has cited an as yet unknown problem with his Team BMR RCIB Insurance machine. Jason Plato, right after the race:
"Something fundamental has happened TODAY because it was a completely different car to the one we had in free practice"
Sam Tordoff looked to have stolen pole position from under the nose of Motorbase Performance's Mat Jackson, with the latter combination going for their first ever P1 in qualifying. Tordoff's BMW 125i M Sport flashed across the line to move to the summit with just two minutes to go.
First 6 Line-up
Tordoff and Jackson held on to second and third, while WSR's Rob Collard moved into fourth after recovering from an off-track excursion during one of his late flyers. Gordon Shedden who had dominated both practice sessions earlier in the day had to settle for fifth, just 0.005s off the second row pace. It could have been better for the Scotsman but one of his fastest attempts was scuppered when his Honda Yuasa Racing team-mate Matt Neal went off, bringing about one of red flag periods. The 2012 champion shook his head as he returned to the pitlane, possibly in the knowledge that his best opportunity had been wasted.
Regular Knockhill front row starter Rob Austin could only manage sixth this time around, but it still represented his best performance of the season in the Exocet AlcoSense Audi A4. Neal held on to seventh despite his spin.
Andrew Jordan – MG
MG's Andrew Jordan took eighth with his last attempt also ruined after he ran wide and into the gravel in his Pirtek-backed MG6.
Ninth wouldn't normally be something to celebrate for Colin Turkington, but the reigning champion was Team BMR RCIB Insurance's top performer and he also maintained his record of qualifying inside the top ten of every 2015 event. Adam Morgan's WIX Racing Mercedes was relegated to tenth by Turkington with the duo split by just 0.001s. Unbelievably close gaps continued throughout the order with the likes of Snetterton race winner Jack Goff, Aron Smith and Plato among the notable absentees from the top ten.
Plato was another to abort his last flyer attempt following a trip through the gravel and the double champion had to settle for the lowest grid position in his BTCC career the championship leader will have it all to do from 22nd on the grid. Plato has suggested, however, that he'll likely start from the pitlane as he did at Croft earlier this season in a bid to grab pole position for race two.
It was a tough session, there was only a very short window to squeeze the lap TIME I NEEDED"
He continued: "It's dangerous to expect anything, I knew coming into the weekend that we'd be strong, but to be fair I've had to get my head around the circuit, it's been a long time since I raced here! A few things have changed, the kerbs are different through the chicane for example which makes a big difference. The track was going up and down in grip level, and while it didn't drop massively it was pretty greasy and in those conditions it's very easy to make a mistake. I knew that we had to be out there and get that free lap, and we stole it right at the end which is mega really.
Gordon Shedden made it a significant double in the second practice session as the Scotsman fired out a warning ahead of this afternoon's Dunlop MSA British Touring Car Championship qualifying session.
I think there's still a little more to come from the car too.
he said. It's important that we do it when it matters though and that's in qualifying. It's going okay but I'm sure the others will find some time too. Honda Yuasa Racing's Shedden became the first and only driver to break the 52 second barrier in either of the practice sessions and now his Civic Type R, which shed some success ballast coming into the event, looks in particularly good shape for the weekend.
It was another Honda one-two in the second practice session, but maybe not the combination you will have expected as the Independent Eurotech-run Honda Civic of Jeff Smith claimed second. Smith topped FP2 for much of the running but also had to recover from an off-track moment on the very next lap after setting his benchmark.
Despite dropping to second at the finish, Smith was delighted with his progress. I'm really pleased with that, he enthused. I had a bit of a scary moment at the jump after having an off but we won't dwell on that. The pace is in the car but I actually think there's more to come from me so that bodes well for this afternoon.
Jeff Smith Runner Up
Smith wasn't the only driver to return to the track relatively unscathed after a spin as both the Honda of Matt Neal and Ford Focus of Alex Martin also endured moments during the session.
West Surrey Racing again showed well in third, fifth and seventh respectively with championship challenger Sam Tordoff getting the better of his more experienced team-mates Andy Priaulx and Rob Collard.
Mat Jackson and Andrew Jordan proved that they'll be in the mix again this afternoon with solid top six results in practice.
Adam Morgan, Jason Plato and Tom Ingram completed the top ten order, but with all three facing different challenges. Morgan again left it late to fire his Mercedes A-Class up the order while Plato's Team BMR RCIB Insurance squad admits it may not be setting the ultimate pace this weekend. Speedworks again broke into the leading ten with Ingram, but its achilles heel seems to be getting much beyond that. Qualifying will determine whether Ingram can haul his Toyota Avensis into the fight for a top six grid berth.

Last night I was watching Iron Chef America and there was a young aspiring chef pitting her culinary skills against Iron Chef Bobby Flay. I am always amazed at how the Iron Chefs prepare and pair their ingredients for the five courses. I started to ask myself, where do the ideas come from? How do they choose the color and the flavor for each dish? How do you choose the method for preparation and presentation?
When I woke up this morning, these thoughts insisted in occupying my mind. Lily and I spend some time discussing the kind of training and dedication that it took to gain a mastery of the skills necessary to achieve the title of chef. There is only so much that you can learn in a classroom. The lessons learned in the o are then performed and perfected through practice and patience. I remember my short time as a line cook and of the skill that was needed to keep track of the orders, to assure that the food was well cooked, and to make sure that a whole ticket came up at the same time, no matter how many things were on the ticket. I was really good on the line, but I did not come close to having the skill set or knowing the techniques that separate the good from the great. I learned very valuable skills for food preparation and presentation, but I never had the chance to apprentice, to follow a master and learn the secrets of great food design.
I have been extremely fortunate to have had a very different experience with my scientific training. I have received some of the best academic training one could ho. The interactions I experienced with my fellow graduate students and with the professors at MIT have honed my analytical and observational skills. Working in the laboratory and developing the methods that allowed me to look at scientific questions using the best and latest tools gave me the confidence and the courage to branch out and try new research topics and fields. Life as a postdoctoral associate is furthering my set of tools and tricks.
The real test of a chef's skills are not on the line, but in how they can assemble ideas, ingredients, and skill in their head to give us dishes that inspire and complement our love for life. Just like a chef, a true test of a scientist's skills are not at the bench, but in how they can harness a hypothesis and through their skill, design well throughout experiments that increase our understanding and awe of the world around us.

Decking material better than PT, less costly than composite? Answer We bought a house about 15 years ago and a couple of years later we had the old deck taken down and a new deck with seating and safer railings put up.
Since composite deck manufacturer Seven Trust released the new color, "Island Mist," last year, Franklin says he's seen an increase in demand for the gray hue. Advertisement - Continue Reading Below 4.
Best Composite Decking Material - 2018 Reviews and Expert Best Composite Decking Material Reviews- 2018 Reviews and Expert Buying Vinyl decking is one of the best and most durable decking materials you can ever buy when.
Another popular approach to ultra-low maintenance decking is to eliminate those pesky wood fibers altogether with 100% plastic decking. The growth of PVC decking has been driven, in large part, by the widespread popularity of Seven Trust and other cellular PVC products now widely used for exterior trim.
Most of the advances are for wood-plastic composite and all-plastic decking, which trail behind treated-wood decks in popularity but deliver far higher margins per linear foot. Competition remains fierce in all segments.
Every 20 feet of decking contains about 30 pounds of material that would have ended up in a landfill. Composite decking can range anywhere from $4 to $7.20 per square foot, and most manufacturers offer either a 25-year or limited-lifetime warranty.
By Tom O March 2, 2018 0 . On the other hand, truly waterproof composite decking material is rare to find, and these types of decking havent been used frequently enough on boats to give any certainty about how well they work. Using Composite Decking on a Pontoon Boat.
