Q: How to create Access User Form to both look up and add data I have an access form that contains two subforms. The main form has three dropdown fields that allow the user to pick what data is displayed in the two linked subforms. The dropdown fields are all unbound as they are referenced in the datasource of the main form.
The SQL of the datasource for the main form is as follows:
SELECT tbl_RptPeriod.RptPrdID, tbl_BusUnits.UnitID, tbl_Categories.CategoryID, tbl_Categories.CategoryTitle, tbl_Categories.CategoryGroup, tbl_Categories.Inactive, tbl_Categories.RptPrdID, tbl_Categories.UnitID
FROM tbl_RptPeriod INNER JOIN (tbl_BusUnits INNER JOIN tbl_Categories ON tbl_BusUnits.UnitID = tbl_Categories.UnitID) ON tbl_RptPeriod.RptPrdID = tbl_Categories.RptPrdID
WHERE (((tbl_RptPeriod.RptPrdID)=[Forms]![Compliance]![cmbReportPeriod]) AND ((tbl_BusUnits.UnitID)=[Forms]![Compliance]![cmbBusinessUnit]) AND ((tbl_Categories.CategoryID)=[Forms]![Compliance]![CategoryTitle]));

This works perfectly to look up records. However, I want the users to be able to add new records to the ones they are looking up. That doesn't work as it should.
I can add records, but then the form elements that I am using to look up the data, specifically RptPrdID,UnitID, and CategoryID are not being populated in the table, thus the new records are unassociated and don't show up if you go to look for them again in the main form after closing it or moving to another record.
This makes sense in so far as the form elements I am using in the "WHERE" criteria of the SQL are unbound, but of course, if I add a new record, I want it to be correctly matched. The user must be able to find the records he adds if he looks up the same criteria again.
Question:
How can I get new records entered in the subforms to have RptPrdID,UnitID, and CategoryID filled in?
UPDATE
SELECT tbl_Activity.CategoryID AS CategoryID_X, tbl_Activity.RptPrdID AS RptPrdID_X, tbl_Activity.UnitID AS UnitID_X, tbl_Categories.SortKey, tbl_Categories.CategoryTitle, tbl_Categories.CategoryGroup, tbl_Categories.Inactive, tbl_Categories.Inactive, tbl_BusUnits.Unit_Name, tbl_RptPeriod.Rep_Month_Nr, tbl_RptPeriod.Rep_Month_Name, tbl_RptPeriod.Rep_Year
FROM tbl_RptPeriod INNER JOIN (tbl_Categories INNER JOIN (tbl_BusUnits INNER JOIN tbl_Activity ON tbl_BusUnits.UnitID = tbl_Activity.UnitID) ON tbl_Categories.CategoryID = tbl_Activity.CategoryID) ON tbl_RptPeriod.RptPrdID = tbl_Activity.RptPrdID
WHERE (((tbl_Activity.CategoryID)=[Forms]![Compliance_EXPERIMENT]![cmbCategoryTitle]) AND ((tbl_Activity.RptPrdID)=[Forms]![Compliance_EXPERIMENT]![cmbReportPeriod]) AND ((tbl_Activity.UnitID)=[Forms]![Compliance_EXPERIMENT]![cmbBusinessUnit]))
ORDER BY tbl_Categories.SortKey;

I had to change the query somewhat, but the key fields are still the same ones, though they are now on a different table.
Private Sub Form_BeforeInsert(Cancel As Integer)
    Me.RptPrdID_X = Me.cmbReportPeriod
    Me.UnitID_X = Me.cmbBusinessUnit
    Me.CategoryID_X = Me.cmbCategoryTitle
End Sub

A: Add code for filling those 3 fields in Before Insert event of main form
Private Sub Form_BeforeInsert(Cancel As Integer)
Me.RptPrdID = Me.cmbReportPeriod
Me.UnitID = Me.cmbBusinessUnit
Me.CategoryID = Me.CategoryTitle
End Sub

David Darmanin, the founder and CEO of Hotjar, a business which helps website owners understand user behaviour and optimise conversions, has won the third edition of EY's Malta Entrepreneur of the Year award. This June, he will travel to Monaco to represent Malta and compete in EY's World Entrepreneur of the Year award together with business leaders from more than 60 countries.
Ben Remfrey, managing director at Praedium Consulting Limited, specialists in training NGOs and governments to clear mines following armed conflict, has won EY's Rising Star award, sponsored by Melita Limited, and will also be attending the Monaco event in June.
In 2019, for the first time, an additional Lifetime Achievement Award was also presented. This year's recipient is Carmelo Debono, who since the 1960s has built Maypole, to become one of Malta's leading baked goods brand.
Ronald Attard, EY Malta's managing partner said: "EY's Malta Entrepreneur of the Year award has once again attracted exceptionally strong nominations. Although website analytics tools, mine clearance and food manufacturing and retail are clearly completely different sectors, all our winners have demonstrated an outstanding ability to build very successful organisations through determination, a clear vision, and a willingness to adapt and innovate. For anyone who has Malta's economic well-being at heart to see such entrepreneurship across generations and sectors is extremely encouraging. I would also like to thank Melita for sponsoring the Rising Star Award and Corinthia Group for sponsoring the awards ceremony."
EY has been holding the Entrepreneur of the Year awards on a global basis for three decades. Now spread to more than 60 countries, they have created a global network of 50,000 entrepreneurs and are the global benchmark for capturing today's and tomorrow's entrepreneurial spirit. Over half of today's top 100 NASDAQ companies have won EY's Entrepreneur of the Year award, and most received the award before they achieved top 100 status.

Traxys Cometals Processing, Inc., Locating at Northeast Mississippi's Yellow Creek Port, Creating 25 Jobs
Jackson, Mississippi — December 13, 2018 — Traxys Cometals Processing, Inc., is locating operations in Burnsville, Mississippi, at the Yellow Creek Port. The project is a $10 million corporate investment and will create 25 jobs.
"Traxys Cometals' decision to locate at the Yellow Creek Port was based on Mississippi's manufacturing-friendly business environment and Burnsville's proximity to rail and barge traffic," Governor Phil Bryant said. "These advantages, combined with the region's talented workforce, position the company for years of success in Tishomingo County."
Traxys Cometals Processing is a part of Traxys North America, a metals marketing, distribution and trading company. The company is constructing a new facility consisting of 105,000-square-feet of manufacturing space, as well as office space. There, Traxys Cometals will produce alloying agents for the molten metal treatment of aluminum and steel.
"The Traxys Group is very excited about this first investment in Mississippi, and we are confident it will lead to additional growth opportunities in the not too distant future," Traxys group CEO Mark Kristoff and Traxys Cometals SVP Ryan Campbell said. "Officials at all levels worked closely with our team throughout the process, and the tremendous support from state, local and county levels was central in our decision to select Tishomingo County."
This investment will allow Traxys to better serve customers with products made in the U.S. and build on a strong track record of supplier and customer service.
The Mississippi Development Authority is providing assistance for the purchase of equipment and building construction. The Yellow Creek Port is financing construction of the facility. Tishomingo County Development Foundation is providing ad valorem and Free Port Warehouse tax exemptions.
"Mississippi's 15 ports provide companies like Tracy's Cometals convenient access to global markets while generating private capital investment bringing promising careers for Mississippians," said MDA Exec Dir Glenn McCullough, Jr. "We salute the leadership at the Yellow Creek Port and the Tishomingo County Development Foundation for their teamwork with MDA, which resulted in bringing Traxys Cometals to our state."
Construction of Traxys Cometals' Burnsville facility is expected to be complete in December.

Comment: Abuse of women continues long after Dec. 6 Montreal Massacre
My only personal experience with violence occurred when I was 10, and didn't always use my words. I beat up a kid named Earl, got into trouble and mended my ways.
In short, when it comes to discussions of serious violence against women, I have absolutely nothing personal to contribute. Like most women.
The fact is, gender-based violence is a minority phenomenon. Which doesn't make it any less horrific.
If a Canadian woman is killed by her intimate partner on average every six days, is that acceptable? If a half-million Canadian women a year report sexual assault (an estimated 10 per cent of actual incidences) is that insignificant? If 3,000 Canadian women are in shelters on any given day with their kids, fleeing abusive relationships, is that inconsequential?
No. Ask the people who patrol our streets and respond to emergency calls in the middle of the night. Violence against women - women, specifically - does indeed exist. And it is no less problematic or sickening because the majority of women are not abused and the majority of men are not abusers.
Today, on the 23rd anniversary of Montreal's Polytechnique massacre, there will be vigils across the country for female victims of violence. They will commemorate the misogynous mass murder by Marc Lepine, tying that event to all crimes inspired by hatred of women.
Predictably, some men will get apoplectic, raging that such observances insult men. We are not all Lep-ines, they'll say. We are not all violent. And that's true.
It also misses the point. Violence against women may be carried out by bullies, criminals and deranged individuals, but it exists because we all facilitate it.
Our evolved criminal and judicial systems now prosecute such violence, but that's not enough. If we don't change demeaning societal attitudes toward women, we simply feed the bullying, criminal or pathologically angry mind.
If the message of our institutional culture is an unwavering suggestion that women are, well, fine - just not quite good enough for starring roles - we keep our collective assertion of gender inequality cast in stone. In men already predisposed toward violence, that embrace of the imbalance can be dangerous.
If we were serious about reducing violence against women, we would be more aggressive in pursuing true equality in the ways we do business, hold governments accountable, respect each other, even pray.
In Canada, for instance, we wouldn't have RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson wringing his hands over the systemic sexual harassment of female officers - or over the dismal fact, as he just admitted, that the force has operated with a "clear bias" against the promotion of women.
Globally, rape wouldn't still be a weapon of war. We wouldn't have to face the disturbing implications of those lopsided male-to-female ratios we keep seeing in the upper echelons of government and big business.
As for big religion? Whether it's Anglicans deciding women aren't good enough to be bishops, Roman Catholics deciding women aren't good enough to be priests, Iranian ayatollahs denouncing women, Taliban nut-bars stoning them to death, ultra-Orthodox Jews throwing rocks at them in Jerusalem - we have pernicious misogyny all dressed up with a halo of benign righteousness.
Then there are the insidious campaigns by social conservatives, who seem to think the full equality of women threatens hearth, home and, most egregious of all, men.
Conservative Suzanne Venker complained in an online Fox News column that men are no longer interested in getting married because "women aren't women any more." With their incessant complaints about inequality and their focus on such fripperies as education and careers, equality-minded women have turned the natural order upside down.
"After decades of browbeating the American male," she wrote, they've unsettled all the poor guys who used to be able to count on being numero uno.
The usual grumbling will be heard when the candles start flickering today at vigils across Canada. The usual men will be affronted by their misperception of insinuated guilt.
But here's something worth remembering. We are, all of us, context. And all violence has a context.

EventsSpeaker EventsClub Lunch: The Miraculous ...
Club Lunch: The Miraculous History of China's Two Palace Museums : How Treasures of the Imperial Palace in Beijing Survived Warlords, the Japanese invasion, the Civil War and the Red Guards
Date: 14 Mar 2016 12:30 PM — 01:00 PM | Venue:
12:30pm for 12:45pm – lunch
Speaker: Mark O'Neill, Author
The speaker presented rare historical images to describe the extraordinary story of the two Palace Museums, in Beijing and Taipei, since their foundation in 1925, especially the 16-year odyssey of thousands of pieces that left Beijing in 1933 and arrived in Taiwan with the Nationalist government in 1949.
Mark O'Neill was born in London and educated at Marlborough College and Oxford University. After working in Washington, Manchester and Belfast, he moved to Hong Kong in 1978 and has stayed in Asia since, working for Reuters, The South China Morning Post and many other publications. He has worked in Hong Kong, Beijing, Shanghai, Taipei, Tokyo and New Delhi. Since 2006, he has been based in Hong Kong and written six books on Chinese history, with three translated into Chinese, for John Wiley, Penguin and Joint Publishing. His new book, "The Miraculous History of China's Two Palace Museums" was available in English and Traditional Chinese, at the talk and at major bookshops in HK, Macao and Taiwan.

View more >This thesis explores the impact on children's development in a preparatory school classroom, when dramatic pedagogies were privileged in the teaching of writing. Using a qualitative case study approach, which included a selection of five illustrative cases, children's progress from role-play to phonetic users of the alphabet was examined. Data included the artefacts produced by the children, reading records, a journal of the year, and the transcripts of videos made of teaching sessions. A self-study of the researcher as an emerging drama teacher was included in the multi-case study, alongside the literacy stories of Edward, Lucy, James and Martin, all of whom were four years old at the beginning of the school year. The pedagogy included guided drama and puppetry events in which new aspects of literacy understanding and skill were progressively inserted. These events were followed by dramatic play periods where the sets, props, costumes and literate tools were freely available for the children's use. Children were explicitly taught alphabetic skills with a synthetic, phonetic approach, and were encouraged to employ these skills for authentic and meaningful purposes within the drama events and in subsequent dramatic play.

The Apple smartphone will be available via mycricket.com/iphone or via phone at 800-853-7682. Customers can sign up online to receive a reminder when Cricket starts selling the iPhone.
T-Mobile is currently the only major U.S. carrier that does not yet have the iPhone, thanks to network incompatibilities. Sprint jumped on board with the release of the iPhone 4S.
In April, a number of regional carriers landed the coveted Apple smartphone, including nTelos, Cellcom, and GCI.
Despite the high subsidies associated with the iPhone and the fact that the device is not a 4G smartphone, most carriers are eager to add the iPhone to their lineups. During recent earnings calls, it was revealed that AT&T activated 4.3 million iPhones during the first quarter, while the iPhone made up more than half of Verizon Wireless' smartphone sales during the same time period, with 3.2 million devices sold.

No. 517 Chapter Bamboo Autumn Kee
Bright moon hangs in the sky, to the earth put on a layer of gauze, so lightsome.
Tranquil wooden courtyard at the moment is like a gradually recovering fu lung, there is an unspeakable breath in slowly gathering.
That is the atmosphere of the unity of the wooden family. They want to bring the wooden home back to the ground and stand firm in Qingshuicheng.
Mu Yu sat alone in the courtyard, with a pot of wine in front of him.
After coming to Qingshuicheng, he really fell in love with drinking.
It was a very strange feeling. He used to drink some wine with the ecstasy. It was a drunkard. He was not. He didn't like drinking before.
Wood Folding Star sat silently across from him, looking at his son, and his heart mixed.
The son who had been separated for many years suddenly recovered in this way, leaving his father a little overwhelmed. He didn't know how to express his emotions because he was completely unfamiliar with what his son was.
Wood Folding Star wanted to know how Mu Yu came over these years, but he didn't dare to ask, because when Mu Yu needed him most, he was not around.
He felt that he was not qualified to ask Mu Yu's past.
"drink wine?"Mu Yu broke the silence.
"I quit."Wood folding star shakes his head.
Mu Yu poured himself a cup: "But I liked drinking recently."
Wood Folding Star smiled and said: "You look very much like her. I felt it before the first day you came to Mufu."
"So you will come to my yard to sleep that day?"Mu Yu asked.
On the first day of the first day, the wooden folding star held the wine bottle and slammed in front of the door of Mu Yu, and did not even call.
"I just want to make sure that I think it's just a coincidence. Plus Xiaoxin is too easy to trust strangers, I don't want Xiaoxin to have an accident. "Wood folding star road.
The moonlight is very quiet, and it is very peaceful to illuminate both of them.
"Do you want to know about your mother?"Asked the wooden folding star.
Mu Yu was silent. There was no memory of Zhu Qiuqi in his mind. Zhu Qiuyi left the Liushui Village when he was two years old.
Zhu Qiuqi left when Mu Yu slept, and did not say anything good to Mu Yu.
Since then, he has followed the village chief, and he has no idea about this unmet mother.
Maybe, but it will never be missed.
"You say it."Mu Yu didn't want to know about Zhu Qiu, but he responded politely.
He didn't want to know because he didn't understand. Under what circumstances would a mother give up her son to see her husband alone?
Wood Folding Star saw that his son had a mustard in his mother's heart, but he still said it himself, as if to speak to Mu Yu, and to say to himself.
Thinking of the woman, the face of the wooden folding star smiled.
"Autumn is a woman from an ordinary family. She is kind and has a high level of cultivation talent. When I was young, I loved to drink, and it was the way to drink without relying on spiritual strength. I like the feeling of being drunk, so I don't have to use my energy to force out the alcohol. Without spiritual protection,
I will be drunk like ordinary people. I was drunk at the door of her house that day, and she was taken care of by her kindness for a night. "
On the face of the wooden folding star, there was a look of nostalgia: "She used the power to disperse the alcohol in my body. I was awake and angry, but she grabbed my ear and warned me not to drink again." drunk. I only know that after I was drunk, I spit her home everywhere, even my body clothes were dirty, and finally she washed.
I saw her for the first time, and she was taught a lesson, but it was really interesting to see her way of teaching me. I secretly recorded the address of her home, and then deliberately drunk again. At the door of her house. "
"Are you a rogue?"A smile appeared in the corner of the wooden feather.
"Okay, every time I get drunk, she will take me in, and then I will lick my ear to warn me not to get drunk. I loved her once and for all, and we were together. After spending time with her, I seldom drink because she doesn't like how I drink. Later, we have you. "
Wood Folding Star met with Zhu Qiuyu by drinking, but gave up his favorite wine because of Zhuqiu.
"But I was the young master of the Mujia, and the cultivation talent was second to none in Qingshui City. The future was immeasurable and had a marriage relationship with Yan. I dare not tell you Grandpa, I know that your grandfather will certainly not allow me to be with a woman from an ordinary family. At that time, we were all in the Yuan Ying period, and we left Qingshui City. I chose to escape marriage. I secretly dig a piece of bluestone. This is the tradition of our wooden family. Every wooden family must have this bluestone. "
"But I found out, and personally arrested us. We both fled and fled away from Qingshuicheng, and eventually they were caught up. I begged him to let us go and tell him that we already have our own children, but because of my escape, the big business of Mujia and Yan's family fell through.
He smashed the face in front of Yan's family. He was furious and wanted to kill my child. I could only let Qiu Jin escape alone. I was caught back. "
There was a anger on the face of the wooden folding star, but it quickly disappeared.
Everything is settled now, nothing to pursue. At that time, Mu Tianhe also regretted it. He was just mad at him. He didn't really want to kill his grandson.
It is to threaten the wood folding star to go back.
"Where are you going to escape?"Mu Yu asked.
"Along the suffocating city, there is a remote area north of the suffocating city, called the Moyun Mountain. I only know this, I don't know where Qiu Jin took you. After I came back, I was shackled by him. He wanted me to inherit the family business, but I did not refuse it and rebelled against him in a drunken way.
Until two years later, at that time, Qiu Jin had already given birth to you. You are also two years old. I saw Qiu Jin, but in front of me, she was afraid that you would be killed by me, so I would not say where you are. "
Mu Yu looked at his father and said: "She loves you so much, choose to abandon me to see you?"
Abandon my son and go to see my husband.
Mu Yu still can't figure this out.
Wood Folding Star shook his head: "When she saw me, I found that she was not right. She seemed to be missing something, but I couldn't tell what it was. Later, I told me that he invited an alchemy teacher from the Danding School to diagnose her. The alchemy teacher said that the five elements of Qiu Jin's body were seriously lacking wood, and the vitality of the wood properties in the body was opened. It has been losing. This is very abnormal. I don't know where it is. "
The five elements are seriously lacking in wood!
Like a thunderstorm blasting in Mu Yu's mind!
Mu Yu opened his mouth and he suddenly understood something.
I am afraid that it is not anyone but his own!
His five elements are wood, and he is seriously short of four lines.
If he did not guess wrong, his mother's death and the strength of his body in the wood Yumeng Mozu are inseparable, it is very likely that he destroyed the balance of the five elements of Zhu Qiuqi!
Mu Yu remembered Qiao Xue. The woman he saw in Qiao Xue's memory was not Qiao Xue's biological mother, but her maiden. Her mother died very early. Qiao Xue told Mu Yu that she was her. Ke died of her mother, it turned out to be the case!
In this way, Cheng Yan, Luo Wei and Xiang Nan, are they killing their mother like themselves?
In the heart of Mu Yu, there was a huge wave.
The source that leads to being an orphan is actually himself, and the power of the Lord Mussin in his body.
If he is a normal child, his mother will not be killed, his mother will accompany him to grow up, and then take him to find the wood folding star.
Mu Yu thought that Zhu Qiuqi left himself because he loved his husband more than he loved him. Now he understands that Zhu Qiuqiu feels that he will soon be handcuffed. He wants to see his husband's last side before he dies, and the fall of the wood feather. Entrusted to the husband, and to explore the mind of Mu Tianhe.
She is worried that if Mu Tianhe does not recognize the grandson of Muyu, the wooden feathers will be killed by Mutianhe. She knew that she was living shortly, and there was no place to place her in Mushui City. Therefore, she could only be placed in the Liushui Village and let the village chief take care of it.
Zhu Qiuqi went to Qingshuicheng Mujia and wanted to secretly tell her husband about this incident. Unfortunately, she did not dare to speak in front of Mu Tianhe, nor did she tell her husband the whereabouts.
Zhu Qiuqi thought that he could hold it, but he was taken away by the lack of wood attributes. This kind of death came too suddenly, and Zhu Qiuqi did not have any preparations.
"I am sorry."Mu Yu murmured.
He has always been worried about his mother's abandonment of him, but now it has been discovered that many things are never as simple as they seem.
"What are you sorry for? Sorry, we are right, aren't we? "Wood Folding Star sighed, "When your mother met me, she told me that I hope you can be with the people you like, instead of returning to the Mujia as a victim of the family like me."
Mu Yu silently, he misunderstood his mother.
Zhu Qiuyu left him in Liushui Village not only to protect him, but also to hope that he can choose his own life.
Mu Yu really chose his life. He likes the people who care about him in this life.
The child chosen by fate is so hard to live.
The evening wind blew through the willows, and the rustling sounded. Only the cockroaches screamed in the air. The sky did not know when it floated over a dark cloud and covered the moon.
There was no more voice in the yard and it was once again in silence.
The wood folding star is immersed in the memory of the bamboo autumn, and the wooden feather is in a state of confusion.
Mu Yu didn't know what to think about it, because the evil spirits once said that the five of them are born with five elements and four people, and they will die soon after they are born.
The five Eumundine Lords chose their physique and attached them to them to survive.
However, Mu Yu now understands that he has survived, and his mother will pay the price of life for this. This is a very cruel choice.
Regardless of whether or not Mu Tianhe had unraveled the couple of wood folding stars, Zhu Qiuqiu and Mu Yu were destined to die, only because the invasion of Mu Youmeng had just let Mu Yu survive.
Mu Yu doesn't know who to hate. Maybe his existence is a mistake at first. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
"If you don't mention the past, let him go!" You will live for your mother, we need to take responsibility for protecting the wooden home. "Wood folding star sighed.
"I will live for my mother."
Mu Yu tightened his lips, and his life today is the exchange of life with Zhu Qiu, who has his mother's life, he
Really want to live well.
But he also thought that the life carried on his own is so simple?
When the grass is about to engulf him, the dead wood scorpion casts "blood care to cover the sky" and exchanges his life for the wood feather, and also avoids his persecution in the white world. He also has the life of the dead wood.
So many people are protecting Mu Yu in various ways, and he has no reason not to work hard.
"I certainly will."Wood feather repeated silently.
He is a child who is deeply loved, fate is playing tricks on him, but many people are helping him.
It was dark at night and the wind was blowing even bigger.
Wood Folding Star suddenly picked up the wooden feathers of the wine glass and drank it.
"You said you stopped drinking."
"I saw her shadow from you, I want to get drunk again last time."
I was drunk in front of my son for the last time, and I was no longer drunk.
"I am drunk with you once."A wooden wine glass appeared in the hands of Mu Yu.


The Austrians held the fortified position with 250 men and 8 guns. They put up a spirited defence against overwhelming odds for four days. All the Austrians were killed, a truly heroic defence to the last man.

The perfect storm produced a perfect event; a combination of rich subjects discussed, enormous business opportunities for vendors and integrators alike, on a backdrop of solving climate change problems and interestingly an awareness of social changes permeating our world.
Anto Budiardjo
President & CEO,
Clasma Events Inc.
With nearly 1,000 people in attendance in Santa Clara this year, it was clearly a watershed event in many ways. The perfect storm produced a perfect event; a combination of rich subjects discussed, enormous business opportunities for vendors and integrators alike, on a backdrop of solving climate change problems and interestingly an awareness of social changes permeating our world. All of these came together in Santa Clara in June.
Beyond a vision
Since 2003, attendees of BuilConn have been chasing a vision, in the intersection of technology and automation with openness as a fundamental and key principle. It seems that the years have seen realizing that vision to be a challenge, many felt that while the "vision" was strong, the driver for business was weak; it has fundamentally not been bankable.
In 2009, that changed. The buzz and discussion was no longer about a vision, but about tangible issues. The presentations, from the 240 or so speakers, were about experiences, best practices, and discussions about what to do now, how to ensure we have the right technologies, products, services and ecosystems to bring value to building owners and society at large.
Energy, the driver
The appetite for energy solutions at ConnectivityWeek this year was clear. From discussions on the stimulus to the role of IT in the future of energy, energy was the substance of almost all of the conversations. This reminds me that Building Automation started off as fundamentally an energy management function and we are now just returning to those roots.
The difference is that now we're talking about energy management in the bigger (and thus more valuable) context. Not just in-premise energy management, but integrating with externalities such as the supply side (utilities), with renewables, storage and with much more energy aware end-users and building occupiers. In the 70's and 80's energy management was just about saving money, an argument that soon vanished as energy costs came down. Now cost savings are only the beginning as people realize that everything from societal benefits to operational benefits and occupier and customer perception are driven by energy conservation, efficiencies and sustainability. They are all interlinked, inter connected!
IT as the enabler
It is no surprise that being held in the heart of Silicon Valley, ConnectivityWeek was very attractive to IT players. Looking at the speaker list you see multiple speakers from Microsoft, Google, Sun, NetApp, VMware, Cisco and many other big names, they are getting the energy bug and they come to ConnectivityWeek to understand how to apply their technologies, products and best practices in the future of energy.
Many people in Building Automation still don't understand why IT players are interested in this space and why they should take note of this trend; this myopic view is unfortunate since it is the reality of the future of energy and buildings. Like the creation of the Internet, the birth of the Energy Internet (or whatever you want to call it) will connect all manner of real-time systems from building automation, the grid, smart homes, transportation and pretty much anything else that uses energy, which is pretty much everything!
Horizontal silos into horizontal enablers
For many, energy has been a vertical silo. The past has seen the generation of energy to distribution and use as being an integrated industry not linked to anything else. This applies to electricity and oil and gas alike. As Smart Grid takes hold and more of our energy consuming devices become electric (such as cars), combined with the birth of distributed generation and storage in large scale as well as in our homes, buildings and vehicles, electricity will touch and be integrated with more and more of our world, in the same way that telecommunication is now integrated into our lives.
At this point, energy is no longer a vertical, specialized sector, but a horizontal subject that will touch everything. The impact of this on Building Automation cannot be underestimated. There is a similarity to telecoms changing from a vertical monopoly to the horizontal subject that it is today. The same goes for news and information, and energy is next – the writing was on the wall at ConnectivityWeek.
The young and social media
One of the most fascinating parts of ConnectivityWeek was the entry of the young into the mix, as well as a discussion of the trends driving societal changes in the world, specifically the way social networking and the expectations of the future generation.
Bottom line is this; the future of energy and buildings has to be designed with full understanding of the future energy users and building occupiers and owners. Here we are talking about catering to the iPod generation, not the professionals of average age 50 that typify both the building automation and utility industries today.
The YoungEnergy Network spoke out loud and clear at ConnectivityWeek; they are ready to take on the challenge; to address the climate change issue and design the future energy systems. They are sharp, motivated and well organized. Ignore them at your peril!
As far as ConnectivityWeek, we are already starting to plan for 2010. The dates are set May 24-27, 2010 in Santa Clara and the growth we saw in 2009 is only the start of the growth of this space. We would welcome comments and suggestions; reach out to me at anto@clasma.com.
In the mean time, on the Smart Grid space, things are just starting to get really interesting. With the stimulus grants and projects about to be announced during the summer, the funding will start to flow into the Smart Grid and green building space. GridWeek 2009 in DC September 21-24 will be another watershed event on the policy front. Utilities, policy makers and those in the consumer side (buildings, homes and industrial) will benefit from taking notice and truly understand how the Smart Grid will impact their world, specially when the climate change bill will start to bite.
The world of interoperability standards will take a leap forward at Grid-Interop in November. In partnership with DOE's GridWise Architecture Council and NIST, this event in its third year, will bring together developers of standards across all disciplines from Smart Grid through to building automation, homes, vehicles, and all other interconnected areas. They will come together to figure out how the systems interoperate, at Grid-Interop in Denver, November 17-19.
Our future events…

In 1954, the station signed on as KFMU and operated under those call letters during the 1950s and early mid-1960s. It was originally licensed to the Los Angeles suburb of Glendale and was owned by Nicolas M. Brazy. KFMU aired an easy listening format known as "Good Music." The station was a subsidiary of Metropolitan Theatres Corp., which by 1959 was program testing KFMW in San Bernardino and held a permit for a KFMX in San Diego, as well as two other stations.
In the late 1960s, 97.1 FM was purchased by Storer Broadcasting and became home to KGBS-FM, as a sister station to 1020 KGBS (now KTNQ). The two stations carried a country music format. Since its AM station was a daytimer, only authorized to be on the air during daylight hours, the FM station allowed the format to be heard around the clock, for those who had FM radios. In the early 1970s, the station experimented with rock 'n' roll and pop music formats before switching to a soft country format in 1973, when it adopted the name "Gentle Country". In 1976, KGBS-FM continued with its country music format while its AM sister station switched to a top-40 format. On August 28, 1978, FM 97.1's call letters changed to KHTZ while continuing with its country music format.
On July 31, 1979, Storer, after having sold the AM radio station which was now known as KTNQ 1020 (Ten-Q), moved its top-40 format to 97.1 FM and began broadcasting as KHTZ (K-Hits). For a few hours the two stations simulcasted the signal until KTNQ switched to Spanish language programming at noon. Within a few weeks the station evolved into a more adult contemporary station, leaving top-40 to others for almost 30 years. On November 27, 1985, the station changed its call letters to KBZT and was known as "K-Best 97".
On September 26, 1986, at 3 p.m., the station was renamed KLSX and the station took on a classic rock format. The call letters KLSX were chosen to sound like the word "classics".
To demonstrate the vastness of the station's on-air library, they advertised no-repeat workdays. The correct caller could win a prize for identifying the one song per day that was intentionally played twice. Additionally, the station hosted an annual event where the entire library was played by artist A-Z during weekday hours, a playlist that ran about 100 hours.
Whenever Neil Young's song "Southern Man" was played, it was always followed by Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Sweet Home, Alabama".
In 1988, the long-running Beatles show Breakfast with the Beatles with host Deirdre O'Donoghue moved here from KNX-FM, a show which she began doing on KMET in 1983. After she died in 2001, the show was taken over by Chris Carter. On September 3, 2006, the station broadcast the last airing of Breakfast with the Beatles, which was then replaced by infomercials, drawing some local protest. Then-host Carter has stated that the departure of Howard Stern can be attributed to why the program was dropped.[citation needed] Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, and Yoko Ono have all called into the program. In late November 2006, local classic rock KLOS picked up the show.
On July 21, 1991, the station began to air the syndicated The Howard Stern Show, and took on the slogan "Howard Stern all morning, classic rock all day."
On July 31, 1995, the station changed to an all-talk format on weekdays and went by the moniker "Real Radio 97.1", and had hosts such as Susan Olsen and Ken Ober, Scott Ferrall, Riki Rachtman, Kato Kaelin, Mother Love, Carlos Oscar, Voxx, and the Regular Guys, the radio duo of Larry Wachs and Eric von Haessler. Howard Stern was critical of this format change and referred to it as "Hindenburg Radio." In 1996, the station dropped the "Real Radio" name and became known as "The FM Talk Station," hired new hosts and in 1997, the station began carrying the syndicated Tom Leykis Show, becoming its flagship station. On April 1, 2002, KLSX temporarily brought back Kato Kaelin and the "Real Radio" slogans and jingles as part of an April Fool's joke.
KLSX was owned by Greater Media until 1997, when Greater Media swapped KLSX and sister station KRLA for three stations: WMMR in Philadelphia, WOAZ in Boston, and WBOS in Boston. The deal enabled Greater Media to operate larger clusters in these two markets while exiting Los Angeles. The swap led KLSX into the ownership of CBS Radio, where it joined radio stations KTWV and KCBS-FM.
On weekends, KLSX played alternative music from 1995 until 1997 when it was acquired by CBS. Instead of competing with now sister station KROQ-FM, it was asked to switch to a "Triple-A" format (a blend of album-rock and alternative music that appealed to a 35+ age demographic). That format continued on weekends until 1999, when the talk format was expanded to weekends, leaving Sunday morning's Breakfast with the Beatles as the only program that played music. During that era and prior to being sold, KLSX boasted the only late-night L.A. talk shows featuring women as hosts: "Dr. X" and subsequently a short-run of "Shrink Rap." KLSX was also the local home of the syndicated show of novelty music host Dr. Demento.
Tim Conway Jr. and comedy writer Doug Steckler co-hosted the evening show ("The Conway and Steckler Show") until June 2005, when Steckler's contract was not renewed. Funnyman/impressionist Brian Whitman was brought in as Steckler's replacement, and the show was renamed "The Conway and Whitman Show". In addition, two new Free FM stations opened up in California, KSCF in San Diego and KIFR in San Francisco, both of which carried The Tom Leykis Show and The John and Jeff Show. The Frosty, Heidi, and Frank Show was picked up and, until January 2007, was syndicated to KSCF.
KLSX was the Los Angeles-area radio home of the Oakland Raiders of the National Football League. Previously, the station aired games from the Jones Radio Network's Sports USA service and NFL on Westwood One. In 2001, it carried the Los Angeles Xtreme of the XFL. KLSX has also aired a sports year-in-review show from Westwood One.
On October 25, 2005, it was announced that Adam Carolla would take over as the station's morning show host in January 2006 due to Howard Stern's departure to satellite radio. On that same day, the station also became known on-air as "97.1 Free FM"—so-called to highlight that its stations broadcast free-to-air, funded by commercials, whereas satellite radio requires a subscription fee.
2007 saw the addition of Danny Bonaduce to The Adam Carolla Show (replacing sportscaster Dave Dameshek), marking the beginning of Bonaduce's career at KLSX. In 2008, he was given his own (local) one-hour show following Frosty, Heidi & Frank, in a timeslot that had been vacant since the departure of entertainment reporter Sam Rubin in 2003. Also in 2008, Brian Whitman unexpectedly left the station in March. Tim Conway, Jr. ended up hosting the evening show alone. Arsenio Hall was a semi regular guest host with Tim on the Tim Conway Jr show on Wednesday nights in 2008-09.
KLSX was the last station to use the Free FM branding, having abandoned the moniker in early October 2008, signaling the official desertion of the Free FM brand nationally by CBS Radio.[citation needed] The program director for KLSX at this time was Jack Silver. The Assistant Program Director and Creative voice of the station was Rich Boerner, who also programmed the weekend music formats.
For a few weeks prior, speculation began on whether KLSX would be soon switching formats. On February 17, 2009, information started to emerge that KLSX was to drop the hot talk format on February 20 and flip to a Top 40 (CHR) format aimed at younger listeners, taking the 'AMP' format that was created by KROQ-FM program director Kevin Weatherly and Assistant Program Director John Michael on KCBS-HD2.
The station's main line up of The Adam Carolla Show, Frosty, Heidi & Frank, Danny Bonaduce (in a solo spot known as Broadcasting Bonaduce), The Tom Leykis Show, The Tim Conway Jr. Show and The John and Jeff Show were all given advance notice of the format shift and afforded the opportunity to host final shows to explain the situation and say their goodbyes.
"97.1 FM Talk" ended on February 20 at 5:00 PM (PT), giving longtime radio veteran Tom Leykis the final sign-off and the opportunity to "blow up" the station (in reference to a catchphrase used by the show's callers, "Blow me up, Tom!").
"AMP Radio" then launched with Paranoid by Kanye West (which coincidentally was also playing on its new rival KIIS at the same time), beginning a commercial-free block of 10,000 songs, similar to the debuts of the current KDAY in 2004 and, in 1989, KQLZ (Pirate Radio 100.3). (Conway would later reappear on KFI as a weekend afternoon host.) The launch of AMP Radio marked the first Top 40 radio battle in Los Angeles since KPWR switched to Hip Hop in 1994.
On June 30, 2009, the station changed its callsign to KAMP to go with the current format, and changed again on July 7, 2009 to KAMP-FM in order to avoid confusion with an AM station with the same callsign.
On January 4, 2010, KAMP rounded out their on-air lineup, which featured Carson Daly in Mornings, Chris Booker middays, Ted Stryker afternoons, and Casey McCabe at night.
CBS Radio would later extend the "AMP Radio" branding to Detroit, Boston, Orlando, New York, Philadelphia, and Dallas. As of 2018, only the Boston outlet remains as the rest flipped to different formats.
On January 8, 2018, Entercom entered a deal to bring the Dance/EDM webcast Pulse 87 to the Los Angeles airwaves as a HD2 subchannel of KAMP-FM, billing it as "Pulse 97.1 HD2." The subchannel replaced the simulcast of KNX, which moved over to the HD2 subchannel of KCBS-FM. On August 31, 2018, Pulse 87 was discontinued to make room for the newly launched "Out Now Radio" on the HD2 subchannel.

If you're over 40, you might have noticed that you're not able to eat or drink the things you used to. This is simply because you're body isn't as resilient as it used to be. As you age your risk for high cholesterol, heart disease, arthritis, prostate issues, cancer and diabetes increase. In fact, adults between the ages of 35 and 55 with moderately high cholesterol levels can have an increased chance of heart disease of up to 39 percent. This is according to findings published in the American Heart Association journal Circulation.
These statistics are not meant to scare anyone, but to merely act as an educational tool to prevent such diseases and negative outcomes. To help further your quest for a healthy life after 40, here are some foods that you may want to avoid so that you are not lead any further down that not-so-healthy path.


Is it March Madness or March Sadness?
Now that March Madness is fully underway and we have our Sweet 16 teams, I've been laughing at the many tweets I've seen about brackets that have been destroyed. A lot of people are referring to the NCAA Basketball Tournament as March Sadness, which I do find pretty witty.
Round 2: Ohio State vs. Dayton– I think it's pretty safe to say that a lot of us messed up this one. For those who don't know, Dayton has been playing really well and not only beat Ohio State but also upset Syracuse in Round 3.
Duke vs. Mercer– I, like Matthew Berry, had Duke in the Elite Eight so that definitely was a big mistake from the start.
Saint Louis vs. N.C. State– Not going to lie, I actually wanted Saint Louis to win, but put N.C. State as the winner of that game instead.
New Mexico State vs. San Diego State– Opposite to my pick for the Saint Louis vs. N.C. State game, I picked New. Mex. St. because they were the team I wanted to win. Backfired again because they lost. It was a close one though and was decided in overtime.
Harvard vs. Cincinnati– Another game that surprised viewers and ruined brackets everywhere.
Kansas, Wichita State, and Duke were my biggest busts so far, because I had all of those teams going pretty far in the tournament. Instead Duke lost round two and Kansas and Wichita both surprisingly lost round three. However, I've still got 10 schools in the Sweet Sixteen, four teams in the Elite Eight, three out of the Final Four, both teams in the National Final, and my National Champion is still in it! I wanted to not stick to the typical Florida, Arizona, or Louisville choice for the tournament winner, so I went with Iowa State. Even though some games didn't pan out the way that I wanted, there have been a ton of really close and exciting games that were fun to watch. Saint Louis and N.C. State was one of my favorites since they came back from a 16 point deficit at the half. Another great game was Manhattan vs. Louisville, and even though Manhattan lost, they really gave Louisville a run for their money, or for the title in this case.
Who do you guys have winning the tournament and what teams were your biggest bracket busts?

SCRANTON, Pa. - Senior midfielder Erica Licari scored the game-winning goal and sophomore midfielder Corinne McDonald as The University of Scranton women's soccer handled Moravian, 2-0, in a Landmark Conference semifinal on Tuesday night at Weiss Field.
The victory advances the top-seeded Royals (15-1-2) to Saturday's championship match against second-seeded Susquehanna at 1 p.m. at Weiss Field. The River Hawks (13-3-2) advanced with a 2-0 win over Catholic on Tuesday night.
Scranton took control midway through the first half and dominated for a majority of the night. Licari broke the ice in the 19th minute when she headed home a cross from freshman forward Steph Lowrey for her sixth goal of the season and second in the last four days.
McDonald doubled the lead in the 26th minute on a mirror image play from Licari's opening goal. Sophomore midfielder Mazie Stiles got free on the left wing and sent in a cross that McDonald headed into the net for her second goal of the season.
From there, the Royals' defense took over, posting its 12th shutout of the season. Senior goalkeeper Colleen Berry needed just to make just one save, but it was one of her best of the season. In the 69th minute, Moravian (9-5-2) created some pressure in the box and got a shot off from close in. Berry dove full out to her left to save the shot, which appeared ticketed for the far right corner of the goal.
Scranton finished the game with a 17-2 edge in shots and 8-2 in corner kicks. Lowrey took a team-high three shots as 10 different Royals registered at least on attempt.
Licari's goal gives her 21 for her career, tied for 18th in program history. Her 59 career points are ranked 19th in team history. McDonald's goal was her sixth of the season and 10th of her career. Stiles now has a team-high six assists, one more than Lowrey. Berry's shutout was her eighth of the season and 21st of her career, tied for sixth in team history.
Scranton will be aiming for its third straight Landmark Conference title and seventh in the conference's 12-year history. It is also the Royals' ninth straight appearance in the conference championship.

TORONTO, ON--(Marketwired - April 14, 2015) - The Canadian Franchise Association (CFA) (www.cfa.ca) announced the recipients of the 2015 Franchisees' Choice Designation last night at a gala awards presentation during the 24th annual CFA National Convention in Niagara Falls, Ontario. This is the fifth year for the Franchisees' Choice program and to recognize franchise systems that have achieved the Franchisees' Choice Designation every year since the program launched, CFA has introduced a special logo that these companies can use to promote their consistent high marks from franchisees.
"The true strength of a franchise system lies in the mutually-rewarding relationship between a franchisor and its franchisees," says Lorraine McLachlan, CFA President and Chief Executive Officer. "Being a Franchisees' Choice designee is a high honour because the high rankings in franchisee satisfaction come directly from the franchisees themselves. To earn the Franchisees' Choice Designation five years in a row is especially significant because it shows that these recipients are consistently earning high marks from their franchisees."
The Franchisees' Choice designees are CFA member franchise systems who voluntarily took part in an independently-administered survey. Their franchisees were asked to rate the franchisor in key areas of the franchise business model, including leadership; business planning and marketing; training and support; ongoing operations; and the relationship between the franchisor and franchisee. Franchisees' Choice designees are participants who achieved a score that exceeds the benchmark established by CFA.
In the due diligence process of investigating a franchise opportunity, speaking with existing franchisees about the opportunity being explored is essential. For prospective franchisees, the Franchisees' Choice Designation identifies that a franchise brand has received solid endorsement and ratings from its franchisees. The 2015 Franchisees' Choice designees are representative of the spectrum of franchise opportunities and the diversity and excellence of CFA members.
Regardless of any awards a franchise system may receive, CFA strongly recommends that prospective franchisees conduct thorough due diligence. CFA offers an array of products and events for prospective franchisees, including CFA's official online franchise directory www.LookforaFranchise.ca, FranchiseCanada magazine, the annual FranchiseCanada Directory and The Franchise Show, Canada's largest franchise-only exhibition held across Canada.
For more information about the Franchisees' Choice Designation program, visit www.awardsprogram.ca.
The Canadian Franchise Association (CFA) is the recognized authority on franchising in Canada. With over 600 corporate members nation-wide, representing many of Canada's best-known brands, CFA is the indispensable resource for the franchise community and advocates on behalf of franchisors and franchisees in Canada to enhance and protect the franchise business model. CFA promotes excellence in franchising and educates Canadians about franchising, specific franchise opportunities and proper due diligence through its many events, programs, publications, and websites (www.cfa.ca and www.LookforaFranchise.ca).
To commemorate the fifth year of the Canadian Franchise Association's Franchisees' Choice Designation program, CFA unveiled a new logo to recognize companies who have received the distinction five years in a row.

It is frequently the most cost effective option to operate systems and infrastructure over an extended life period rather than enter a new build programme. The condition and performance of existing systems operated beyond their originally intended design life are controlled through maintenance. For new systems there is the option to simultaneously develop the design and the maintenance processes for best effect when a longer life expectancy is planned. This paper reports a combined Petri net and Bayesian network approach to investigate the effects of design and maintenance features on the system performance. The method has a number of features which overcome limitations in traditionally used system performance modelling techniques, such as fault tree analysis, and also enhances the modelling capabilities. Significantly, for the assessment of aging systems, the new method avoids the need to assume a constant failure rate over the lifetime duration. In addition the assumption of independence between component failures events is no longer required. In comparison with the commonly applied system modelling techniques, this new methodology also has the capability to represent the maintenance process in far greater detail and as such options for: inspection and testing, servicing, reactive repair and component replacement based on condition, age or use can all be included. In considering system design options, levels of redundancy and diversity along with the component types selected can be investigated. All of the options for the design and maintenance can be incorporated into a single integrated Petri net and Bayesian network model and turned on and off as required to predict the effects of any combination of options selected. In addition this model has the ability to evaluate different system failure modes.
The integrated Petri-net and Bayesian network approach is demonstrated through application to a remote un-manned wellhead platform from the oil and gas industry.


Happy Ostara! UPDATE: photos and videos!
To decide to wait for the rest at the station for reunion, because the one minute at the busstop simply didn't qualify as a proper goodbye... Together, or not at all.
... we will meet again soon.
And that was the Ostara Meet with our own little group Tuatha De Lugh.
Merry Ostara/Spring everybody and may it be joyful and flourishing!
Nice journal , !!! happy and joyfull Ostara !!!
Wonderful dedicated journal to them.
You most certainly had a good Ostara. All the best.
I got a new youtube channel for my videoblog "My Skycastles". It's about my daily life as a Lightworker, or indigo, or.. you know. All the "Lightworker" vlogs I found on youtube were all about... the new era and salvation and evolution, things like that. Of course they can be very helpful for those who seek that information, but I was more looking for lightworkers around the world, who would just show you they were and what they do in daily life..
Since I couldn't find one, I just decided to start a vlog myself. It's very strange and awkward, because I have stage and camera fright, but this seems to be a good way to work on it. Also, I rant a lot.. which becomes very clear, even to me now because of the vlogging.
I cancelled my website Paulien's Art Studio (takes some time to get it offline), simply because... I don't exactly use it for anything else but file storage nowadays. I'm not very good at blogging, often because I can't think of anything relevant to write. My thoughts go from here to there, when there's an external impulse my thoughts can spin into a totally different direction. I'm not so much good at keeping up a journal and writing one-line stories, but I'm like... a pro when it comes to ranting and random weaving of thoughts.
Wow, I just had the most epic newyear of my life.
With Tuatha de Lugh, our pagan brotherhood, we got together at the farm once again, to celebrate the newyear together. We haven't seen the Blue moon turning Red, because of the clouds, nevertheless Milady Moon made us feel that she was filled with power. Dear Gods, the energy surges, the bouncing up and down, the pacing, the laughing, the.. everything!
I've felt so timeless, ageless, for three days. Filled with energy and power, happiness and a sense of pure freedom, featherflight. Dammit my friends, we're a bunch of such different people, yet all bound and brought together by the same kind of forces.
Christmas is passing me by like wind in the fields this year.. I didn't think of getting and sending christmas cards, I even forgot to visit my grandmother. The usual christmas spirit I had always experienced is nowhere to be found, I felt it a little bit a while back, but it's gone now. It seems like these holidays have lost its meaning to me. They say it's a time of peace, tolerance and love, but the way I see it it's more like the time of obligation towards family, fake smiles and a lot of pretending..
Don't get me wrong, I love my family and I like being together with them, but it doesn't feel much different to do so during christmas.
Oh! The Pagan Days!Oh! How Pagan I feel today! All we did, Nina and I, all day long was lying and hanging around on the couch, with my new vest and her sheepskin coat, with coffee, mead and Damh the Bard. We also went outside for a walk through the forest in search of her Grandpa Birch for a while, after which we would slip back onto the couch. We also spent at least an hour sitting back in chairs, with our feet upon the window-sill, staring through the window at the red tree against the blue sky, swaying in the wind.
This weekend, Tessa and I went to see Nina. Friday night time just flew passed as we were doing puzzles, drinking coffee and mead, talking and laughing. In the dead of night we went to a small bit of forest and hang back in a deserted playground, staring at the stars in complete silence for what seems like hours.
Castlefest and the bonds of BrotherhoodYup, it's this time of the year again. Castlefest is over, though only the festival. Everything else that came with it - friends, emotions, light and life - are things we keep carrying with us.
Castlefest is not just a festival. It's one huge pagan gathering, in a tiny country in the world. There, together, we bring traces of the old ways and ancient brotherhoods back into a modern world. Like daimonie beautifully said, Castlefest is the home of a pagan revival-movement.
I had a job, and it's gone again. The guy who started that entertainment company decided to put the start off to the end of 2010, or even later than that. So I'm left with nothing once again.
Just a few more weeks and it's Lughnasadh, time for castlefest. I'm looking forward to it very much.

One of our key tasks on your behalf is the search for bargains. Seeking the best bargains is one of our fundamental investment principles.
When we spot an idea, product or trend that is likely to become more prevalent or profitable in the future, we end up trying to figure out whether that knowledge can be effectively put into client portfolios. In other words, is it investable?
To invest is to put money into something in which you have a reasonable expectation of a return. This is different than speculating, which involves a high risk of large losses or large gains. Last and least, there are many ways to simply flush money down the toilet.
For example, without debating the merits, medical and other uses of marijuana seem increasingly likely to proliferate. But we believe the political risks inherent in federal government policy are so high that it is speculating at best—not investing.
When we look at specific marijuana securities, most of the buzz is about penny stocks. These, in turn, look to us to be more in the "down the toilet" category than either an investment or a speculation. So we have concluded that the proliferation of marijuana is not investable.
Another facet of investability has to do with price. A trend that everyone seems to be talking about is likely already reflected in the price of investments, leaving little room for gains. "What everyone knows usually isn't worth knowing," as the saying goes.
By 1999, everyone knew the internet was going to change how we live and work. The internet did indeed transform life in many ways. But related investments were trading at extremely high valuations, resulting in losses to investors in subsequent years.
We are selective—one might say picky—about the things in which we choose to invest. Our standard of investability is high. We sometimes talk to people who are enthusiastic about an idea that sounds exciting, but is not investable. No matter how good an idea is, if we cannot get it into your portfolio on an efficient basis, it is not investable.
Clients, for examples of things we believe are investable, look at your statements (or positions in LPL AccountView). If you wish to discuss this or anything else, please email us or call.
All investing, including stocks involves risk including loss of principal. No strategy assures success or protects against loss.
