Oh, such silly pictures. From 2010 or later. Most of them depict the characters or concepts of others, I fear.
Eh so two people expressed a willingness to see this lamentable lump of imagined existence again and at least one of them meant it so now everybody has to suffer. The time now is to make a decision. It is too late to change your address.
Ayato drew a dope once (I do not advise this). He has additionally drawn many great things which were not dopes. Lovely backgrounds, also! Not like this. I'm not sure where this is supposed to be. I initially was thinking of some space shippy sort of environment like Ayato often produces but it wanted to look more like a Romanesque era church that was converted into a shopping mall and then into an Amiga game.
The orange creature is an upright walking wolfish being with the appropriate name of Lupine and the grey creature is a space alien called Scott. Although I suppose they're both space aliens because I've never seen either of them around here. With that in mind I don't know what Scott is at all.
My drawing was supposed to be quick and thoughtless, because I don't have time to do substantial things these days. Unfortunately, I spent that time on it anyway and so the thoughtlessness became glaringly apparent, but perhaps that is appropriate given the presence of the blue unmentionable in the lower left. The dope is so dumb that I typed "right" instead of "left" the first time. How dare it make me do that? It is drawn to and in places where thought does not occur. Ayato remarked "somehow I think Scott and dopes would get along all too well." I don't know what dopes are anymore than what Scott is so perhaps they are both dopes. One just happens to be better drawn than the other. Don't need no pair-a-dopes.
So, I found a curious image of a piece of waste being flushed down the toilet lying around in the coffee shop the other day. I have no idea where it came from, but I thought perhaps you might want a copy of it for some reason. It seems like the sort of thing you'd enjoy.
This is a colored and disgustingly over-processed version of a drawing that I did for another person during the 2010 anthro-con-vention of Pitt's Burgh, United America. However, I was not actually within the convention premises and the recipient just happened to live in Pittsburgh and was not attending the event at any point. Then this might have been weird!
Lest I seem hypocritical for denigrating a toilet enthusiast and then posting this, I point out that he draws/arranges for others to draw things on toilets and I have drawn something in a toilet. Far less gross.
That signature in the corner is probably unnecessary.
Would you believe it, hope is still coming. When shall it arrive? And then where is it going? I worry about who gets hope next. This is a most worrisome gang of hope.
The creature wearing a track suit is sort of awkward, but the race occurs in August which is a time to be awkward while wearing a track suit.
I think this far superior to the picture I made last year, as far as it not being boring goes. However, it is terrible in the aspect that so many of these idiots are cheating and also that they are idiots.
I would like to put some green in here, but I am told this is the ideal amount of colors for shirt-printing. However, this is the internet and not a shirt. That explains why I had such trouble ironing it (That joke isn't funny unless you say it in a Groucho Marx voice (and sometimes not even then)).
For the birth-day of the person whose fault it was, I updated this image. I hope you do not mind seeing it again, in the event you have seen it before. The idea is to make her sick of seeing it.
To offset the new addition character being better drawn than the rest, I gave it messed up proportions and put it in a position that unbalances the composition.
I enjoy rain and misty voids. I'm not certain the protagonist here necessarily shares my view, for it seems to have brought an umbrella.
My favorite part about using photoshop is that it doesn't ask you what the eep you're thinking when you accidentally initiate the "revert" command. It has enough respect for me to know I would never do something so silly.
I think I've been putting too much effort lately into pictures only a few people would like. To rectify that I've put too much effort into a picture no one would like.
I've never been that happy to see burnt bread in my entire life.
My pictures have way too many clouds in them.
I wondered why I hadn't colored anything like this in a while. Then I remembered.
I am sensitive to imagery depicting harm coming to eyes, and seem to have become moreso between when the pencil drawing happened and when I made it computery, because I recall trying to insert additional cheek shielding, but I failed.
How ever did this happen? Not the depicted incident, just that I finally got a picture here without a certain annoying red imp in it and another red imp shows up.
I owed a thing to Matugi anyway, I think, but really he is a nice fellow who is well deserving of anything. This took far longer than it ought to have because perspective is my nemesis. nemitz is also my nemitsis but we aren't talking about that.
I have great fondness for unfortunate imps, evidently. Well!
I didn't think to mess with the colors until I had already declared the thing finished. I like the next-to-last one best. This is probably an important point in time, as the things I did after this were considerably more likely to have messed up colors in them than previous stuff had been.
Orange and blue? Who'da thunk it? Yes, but see, this time there is green, also.
We don't get great cellular telephone reception here by the water for some reason.
Also, I suspect this fish is not authorized to wear a hat with so many ridges.
Alsoer, those buildings are supposed to be in the distance, but you are welcome to believe that the foreground creatures are directly beside them, if that lets you like it better.
I considered The Terror of Kraptonite but it struck me as a tad crass and probably not an original wordplay. "Diptonite" also goes unused because I don't know that anybody uses dip as an insult outside of some Garfield comics from the 1980s that I read as a child, and as long as we're going the 1980s I should give batman a crescent moon shaped head and call this "the terror of Mactonite." Feel free to suggest a better title. You could scarcely do worse!
The person who requested this (rather a few years ago, I should say) is not fond of Superman. However, I find some of her preferable characters highly questionable!
A thing much like the archery picture in that I spent a great deal of effort on it which is not at all evident and features a minimum of silly imps (the minimums is ONE). And hey, these colors again.
I'm not entirely sure how the Bat-Man beat Superman here, but it also seems possible to me that Superman merely gave up to protect himself from further bowtie related abuse.
Yes I've seen Dark Knight Returns. The Super-man looks most beaten up in the third version. A pity I didn't pay more attention to that at the time. Although I wasn't necessarily trying to make the picture brutal so maybe this was deliberate. I don't remember. I am writing this nine months from the date I chose to attach to it. I also don't remember why I never bothered to remove that annoying sideways L-shaped black line next to Superman's cape. The only thing I was certain of was that there must be a rope belt.
Mortis, the Angry Mail Rabbit (the left one) of Scurrow has observed that while not the worst customer in the world, nemitz (the crumbag) is nonetheless a bad customer (that eats pens). Nemitz is also a bad doctor.
This was not intended to rip off the color scheme of the famous "HOPE" poster, although with the way that oil leak is going it might as well. Everything is hopeless with nemitz around. I went to a frame shop once (because I didn't want to go twice) and every color limited thing in the place was like this.
I initially intended to replace the title with a better thing once I thought of one, but it turns out this is just dumb enough that I like it.
The human responsible for Koshizu likes to take photographs of things. I think she should instruct her pointy-headed protege to pick up a different hobby, though.
I deliberately limited the colors in this for alleged stylistic effect and tried to keep myself from correcting every blemish because I don't need all these silly animal people thinking they matter to me, particularly when they're content to waste my effort of making them look nice by stumbling into lakes and canyons and such.
They stand together against unknown challenges.
There is no symbolism. The light and dark separation is purely for aesthetic value. I tried putting the plants and the acropolis thing on the "good" side and the evil power plant thing on the "bad" side, but it didn't work. I like pipes and scaffolding. What can I do?
Also, I should really consider making "elpse" (the green creature) be skinnier, also have fur, or wear clothes, or something, simply because I'm generally at a loss as to where muscle definition is supposed to go on body types that don't exist. And on ones that do, also. I have tried to figure this stuff out, but I generally end up more confused or worse. "Muscle" is one of those words that is dangerous in image search engines.
Fairly late in the process, I amended some wrong hands. However, they were more aesthetically functional the old way! Alas. Stupidly enough, I had made them "accurate" in the original sketch and then couldn't figure out what was wrong with them when I went over the picture more recently and so "corrected" them to be wrong. Yes I can see you're enthralled by this story.
Also the whole time I had this on other sites only one person commented on the fact that these idiots are standing on railroad tracks. Which would be understandable usually, but I tend not to make company with a subtle bunch. Like I might draw spaghetti and that would be the point, and thus not necessary to point out, but inevitably somebody would say "lol spaghetti." If that doesn't happen then I probably failed! And in fact it didn't happen because the person who did mention the tracks was sensible and well-spoken. I can't believe people sometimes.
It is a regrettably widely-perpetuated myth that deserts do not receive much rain.
For the title I also considered "Desert Storm" and "Fall Festival," but they didn't sound stupid enough when I said them.
Science Fox is a person who exists and once was keeper of the bird creature. The other one is entirely my fault, but that doesn't stop me from berating it. All the same this is the only picture I ever made with colored pencils that actually looked nice once the computer had eaten it so that much is special. I wonder where the physical matter which together comprise this drawing is now.
It seems to be a picture for TITASH. It is based on a true story, in the aspect that it is true I made this. It looks nice if you zoom out and squint.
I like the rock. I'm not sure it's big enough, though.
And this? someplace else entirely.

Q: Why isn't the area of a cone (also) $\frac 12 r h \times 2 \pi r$? I understand how the area of a pyramid is derived and that a cone is just a pyramid with a circular base.
But I can't help but to imagine the circumference being straightened and being a triangular prism. The circumference is $2\pi r$ and the area of the triangle is $\frac 12 r h$. $\frac 12 r h$ is being replicated $2\pi r$ times!
I think my mathematical intuiton is failing me because things like this keeps me up at night.
Following that, the area of the sphere.
Damn Archemedis is also telling me that the volume of a sphere is a ratio to the imaginary cylinder it is inscribed in. But my stupid mathematical intuition tells me it is half the circumference times the area of the circle. Which can be written as $\frac 12 \pi r \times \pi r^2$. Purge this arrogance from me by explaining simply why my intuition is false without using the method of exaustion.

A: The area of a triangle is $(b\times  h)/2.$
If you consider the area of a cone as the area of a triangle, then the base is $2\pi r$ and the height is the length of the slant, that is $ \sqrt {r^2+h^2} $.
Thus you get $ (1/2)(2\pi r )( \sqrt {r^2+h^2})=\pi r  \sqrt {r^2+h^2} $ which is the correct formula.
On the other hand when you open a sphere you do not get a flat surface so the triangular argument does not work.
Note that the triangular slices on the surface of a sphere are indeed triangles in hyperbolic geometry which have two right angles.

A: Here is a simple way of seing that your formula can't be right.
Imagine that you do not consider the cone at its base (where the cisrcumference is $2\pi r$), but at its summit (where it is $0$).
Then with the same reasoning I would say that the volume is $0 \times \frac 12 r h=0$...

Once your child-like spirit has been broken is it lost forever or is it somethin!
Say good by to the child and hello real world.
I sure the heck hope not. If only we all could remain seeing the world through a child's eyes. Bet things wouldn't be in the mess they are right now.
It should not be broken, but tempered with knowledge.
I suspect you can regain it, if in no other way that because you want to.
Things can never be exactly as they were before the gaining of knowledge, but I think that there can always be moments of wonder if you are open to experiencing them. There are good people, beautiful spots of nature, and other such things out there along with the bad stuff. Have heart and seek out these things.
Good luck I know you can do it.
that depends. do you want that child-likeness because you regret getting older. or is it because you are a dreamer? by dreamer i mean do you have dreams that got put back on the shelf,and life somehow get in the way of you dream.you can regain it,if you really want it.don't let negative people or situations stop you.get positive. read books,listen to tapes that will motivate you to achieve those dreams.
Unfortunately the world around us today, is very confusing, too many temptations, but that is reality, we cannot escape it, but we can choose what we want, keep the childlike goodness in us, even if we have bad experiences. We can grow wiser, realise this is life, there is good and bad, tap onto the good things of life, go away from what you know is bad, but if bad does happen to you of which you have no control, learn from it, never be it, keep the goodness in you, you can do this by keeping some quite moment to yourself, evaluate things, meditation is good, read books by Dalai lama, being more spiritual.
Depends what you describe as a child-like spirit. You learn from your experiences but it doesn't mean that you have to be bitter or not willing to trust others. As an adult you understand that your actions have consequences but you know the level of risk you're willing to take and accept the consequences of your actions and move on. That doesn't mean that you don't have fun in life.
When your spirit is broken,it can be healed,and you can be restored better than you were before. A child like spirit is not something I really understand unless you mean innocent? Yes,I believe it can be regained,depending on the child and how they handle life and situations,people,ect...It can be a test,and how you pass it may reveal who you really were to start with?
According to Erickson and Jung, you will not be able to progress emotionally until the part of your child which was broken is fixed.
I believe you can regain it and really, it's not lost, it's hiding. You may be wiser to the world because you were hurt, but that's okay. When you're wiser, you know when it's safe for the inner child to come out and play, and when to protect it because it's not safe.
Talk this through with a therapist or in a support group. It will help you. It has helped me.
It's NEVER lost forever. It resurfaces from time to time. The good thing is the more you feed it, the more it resurfaces. Remember what you did when it was intact before it was broken, the things that were fun and carefree. Do things like that again. Eventually, the spirit returns. If you "feed it with experiences," it will become stronger and return more often. As you mature, you'll need to keep it tame, though. Good luck and have some fun.

The goal of every company is to reach out to as many potential customers as possible; this is for the simple fact that the more people learn about you, the more likely they are to do business with you, however, considering how competitive the market can be, not many businesses manage to achieve their goal of reaching as many customers.
This is a problem that can easily be resolved by making good use of the Internet when promoting your brand.
The purpose of this post is to educate you on the different ways you can promote your brand more effectively.
The most important thing to branding is consistency. The mistake that you can make is that of saying one thing this week and contradicting yourself next week. This simply means that you cannot be trusted. The question you need to ask before you embark on marketing is this; what is your business really about? The answer to this question will guide you through the process.
Being consistent in branding creates brand recognition. This is what enables you to reinforce your brand. Regardless of the number of channels you are using to promote your brand, you must always make sure that you are consistent in your branding strategy.
One thing you need to understand in online marketing is that your website is the face of your brand. This will be the customer's first stop before they come knocking on your doors. If they don't like what they see on your website, chances are they will never do business with you. It is this reason that makes optimizing your website important.
More often than not, when it comes to optimizing their website, most people only focus on search engine optimization. Although this is important since you want your website to be found by more people, you still need to optimize your content. You need to make your content more appealing to prospective clients. It is also important that you spend a little more time making sure that your web design is user-friendly and that your website loads up at lightning speed.
In the realm of online marketing, social media is the most reliable tool when it comes to brand promotion. This is because it helps you connect with your customers at a more intimate level. It is also important to note that most of your prospective clients are on social media. The use of social media will further help you generate quality links and content for your website.
All in all, just being on social media is not enough. You have to keep your social media profiles alive. Post relevant content regularly and allow your followers to participate. The proper use of social media will promote your business, enhance brand visibility, boost brand loyalty, and also grow your sales among other things. The social media platform enables small businesses and corporations to compete on a level ground. You can also stream your social media feeds on your digital signage screens in your business so that your customers know what is happening on your social profiles.
The quality of the content you produce and distribute has to be of great quality. This is the best way to gain visibility. You need to remember that Internet users are looking for quality content. If you only provide them with information that they can find anywhere, they will definitely lose confidence in you. This will definitely hurt your reputation.
One of the best strategies you can use to create better content is to start by understanding the plight of your consumers. What do they really want? What problems are your target consumers facing and how can your products and services help solve these issues? By providing them with high quality content that solves their problems, you will be able to effectively win their hearts. If you are not a great writer, do not hesitate to work with freelancers or content development companies. They will save you time. However, before giving them the green light, make sure that they completely understand your objectives.
Studies show that people are more inclined to view videos than to read text. This is the main reason why you need to incorporate video marketing in your strategies. Businesses of all sizes can leverage video marketing. Create a unique video that appeals to your target audience and post it on such channels as Vimeo, YouTube and Metcafe. Posting branded videos that are relevant to your niche is considered to be a very effective way of promoting your brand, driving traffic to your site and also making your brand stand out. You can also add the video on your social media profiles and post it on your blog and website.
The distribution of press release is yet another effective method that you can use to enhance your brand visibility as well as recognition. The best thing about this option is that it is inexpensive. If the press release is picked up by the Google News, your brand will get more coverage.
When it comes to online marketing, you have to capitalize on blogging. Setting up a blog is easy and you can post virtually anything so long as it is relevant to your target audience. A blog will help enhance your brand visibility as well as boost your chances of success. Blogging will further improve your search engine ranking, establish brand validity as well as increase your reach. Blogging will further enable you to build stronger relationships with your customers. Whenever you add a new post on your blog, make sure that you add a post on social media that informs your followers of the new post.
When it comes to branding, the key to success is being consistent and authentic. If you are open and honest with yourself, the value of your brand will increase and it will be more authentic.

Châtillon-sur-Marne is located on the right bank of the Marne river, which means north of the river. The village is located just west of the stream Ru de Belval. On the eastern side of the stream, the small village Montigny is located. Its name is sometimes written as Montigny-sous-Châtillon, and it is also part of the Châtillon-sur-Marne commune.

Although the commune stretches all the way to the river, the actual village is located about 1.5 km away in the direction of the vineyards. On a stretch of about 9 km along the right bank of the Marne river, from Verneuil in the west to Binson-et-Orquigny in the east, flat farmland is found next to the river, but no vineyards and no villages are located directly at the river, unlike the situation upstream of Binson-et-Orquigny and downstream of Verneuil.
Pope Urban II, who lived circa 1035-1099 and was pope 1088-1099, was born in Châtillon-sur-Marne. A large statue of him, erected in 1887, can be found on a small hill next to the village.
The Châtillon-sur-Marne commune covers 1169 hectares and has 710 inhabitants (as of 2014), referred to as Châtillonnais and Châtillonnaises.
Cuisles, the neighbouring village, was part of Châtillon-sur-Marne 1973-2006, but is again a commune of its own since 1 March 2006.

The vineyards in Châtillon-sur-Marne are partly located around the village, and partly on both sides of the side valley formed by the stream Ru de Belval, i.e., on slopes both on the western side (closer to Vandières) and the eastern side (closer to Binson-et-Orquigny) of the valley. The vineyards consist of mild slopes of varying directions that include most of them except straight north. Pinot Meunier is the dominant grape variety.
The current vineyard surface in the Châtillon-sur-Marne is 239.1 hectares (590.8 acres). There are 180.9 ha Pinot Meunier (75.7%), 40.9 ha Pinot Noir (17.1%), and 17.3 ha Chardonnay (7.2%). Numbers from CIVC, as of 2013. In 1997, the vineyard surface was 257 ha, but at this time Cusiles was part of the Châtillon-sur-Marne commune. (Today, the two communes have a total of 272 hectares, i.e., the vineyard area has increased from 1997 to 2013.). There are 292 vineyard owners (exploitants) in the commune.
Houses that control vineyards in Châtillon-sur-Marne include Pol Roger.

The closest houses are located in Châtillon-sur-Marne itself, and those beyond to the left are located in Montigny. Picture linked from Wikimedia Commons (photo Serge Ottaviani, 2014).
Single vineyard sites in Châtillon-sur-Marne include the following, among others:
Le Bois du Binson, a northwest-facing to the northeast of the village, situated on the border to Baslieux-sous-Châtillon and just below the edge of the forest. Éric Taillet in Baslieux-sous-Châtillon uses Pinot Meunier from this site for a vineyard-designated Champagne.
Le Bois Sercelin, a mildly eastsoutheast-facing site to the northnortheast of the village, in the lower part of the slope. Charlot Père & Fils uses Pinot Noir from this site for a varietal Champagne.
La Fontinette, a mildly southeast-facing site immediately to the southwest of the village, in the lower part of the slope close to the D1 road. A. Levasseur in Cuchery uses Pinot Noir from this site in their Noir de Terroir.
Les Leriens, a southeast- and southwest-facing site immediately to the northwest of the village, in the lower part of the slope. Cazé-Thibaut produces a vineyard-designated Champagne from this site.
Sous le Bois, a south-facing site to the northnorthwest of the village, in the upper part of the slope. Charlot Père & Fils uses Chardonnay from this site for a varietal Champagne.

SINGAPORE — You don't have to go far to see Singapore's growing appreciation for craft beers. Especially with festivals such as this year's Beerfest Asia, where you can sample a global variety in one convenient location.
It is also a great place to sample the fruits of the local brewing scene, which is slowly but surely maturing.
According to Malcolm Davies, head of Singapore's Archipelago Brewery, more outlets are stocking craft beers from all over the world, but the local beer brewing scene, he affirmed, is not quite moving at the same pace. "There are certain things unique to Singapore that make it very hard to run a production brewery that would turn a profit. That doesn't mean it's not possible, but it is not easy," he shared.
Starker Brewery manager Pang Chin Kiat concurred, adding that the ability to constantly develop new flavours of beer to retain a competitive edge is another advantage a local brewery has over its overseas competitors. He noted that more consumers are willing to try brews that are "skewed towards the sweeter notes" and more aromatic.
"We do see an increase in first-time consumers opting for Starker's Lychee beer at our beer joints these days. Typically, a handful of first-time consumers have the mindset that an imported brew is one that is full of bitter notes and would generally opt for one that is flavoured," he concluded.
The brewery has made beers using osmanthus flowers and coriander — which sold out rather quickly — but Yeo remained sceptical about the rise of Asian-flavoured beers, saying that while he thinks the idea of having pandan leaves or turmeric in a beer is interesting, "there have also been plenty of misses".
"The idea of an Asian ingredient in a beer is novel but the tasting notes usually do not resonate well with the layman craft drinker," he shared.
Still, Archipelago came up with a Juniper Sahti just for Beerfest Asia 2016, a unique beer brewed with rye, oats and barley which are fermented with European baker's yeast and flavoured with Juniper berries. No hops were used.
The result, Beck added, is an almost vanilla ice cream aroma that complements a subtly sweet and slightly sour bodied taste.
Brewed by The 1925 Microbrewery & Restaurant, this pale ale maintains a great balance between hops and malt, and has a slight yeasty nose on the head followed by a malty body with a mildly sweet flavour.

I don't know a ton about science, but I obviously know more than Rick Perry does. This, however, is not the point.
If you read my original post, you'll recall that I argued that Perry's climate science denial and skepticism toward evolution suggested a non-empiricist style of thought that I find uncongenial. Williamson ignores both my broader point and the specific question about evolution. Instead he pretends we're only debating climate science, and he clings to his contention that experts disagree and laymen have no way to know who's right.
What's more, the disturbing thing here is not just the fact of Perry's opposition to climate science, it's the basis for it. He subscribes to the paranoid notion that "there are a substantial number of scientists who have manipulated data so that they will have dollars rolling into their projects." This is pure tinfoil hat thinking. Granted, it's a kind of tinfoil hat thinking that holds enormous sway within the Republican Party, but it is tinfoil hat thinking nonetheless.
If a Democratic presidential front runner started insisted that the sun orbits the Earth, or even began spouting anti-vaccine conspiracies, I would be disturbed.

Sony and Honda will introduce their brand-new electric vehicle, the Afeela in 2026
Sony has joined the EV conversation. With the announcement of a new electric vehicle brand called Afeela at CES in Las Vegas, the consumer electronics giant made its EV ambitions clear after a number of interesting electric vehicle prototypes over the past few years.
Technically, Sony Honda Mobility, a joint venture between the two Japanese companies, is the source of the new electric vehicle concept. They jointly unveiled the prototype of an attractive new electric sedan that they intend to sell in the United States by 2026. It will be part of a new brand called Afeela, but the name of the prototype's production version is still unknown. According to Afeela, deliveries in North America will begin in the spring of 2026 and orders will begin to be taken in 2025.
The prototype electric vehicle has a whopping 45 cameras and sensors inside and outside the vehicle, as you would expect from an electric vehicle that is being presented by the electronics giant. The Afeela concept is more than just a new way to think about EVs when paired with the ECU's maximum computing power of 800 TOPS. From Qualcomm Technologies' Snapdragon Digital Chassis for ADAS and telematics solutions to a partnership with Epic Games on the entertainment side, the EV incorporates entire suites of next-generation software.
The idea itself is a fairly common EV design with aerodynamic wheels and a low profile. Sony and Honda say that the EV concept is here to "create a new value standard for mobility." However, they don't want you to think of the car in terms of power and performance like you would normally. Instead, "software, networks, and user experiences" ought to be the focus here. Specifically, areas in which Sony has some experience.
Over-the-air updates are available for digital features in the concept, but Afeela's initial statements include the expected claims regarding autonomous driving and other connectivity features. Level 3 automated driving will be advertised "under limited conditions" with Level 2 driver assistance accessible in additional circumstances, including urban driving.
According to Sony, the EV will also be made available for partnerships with customers and "our automotive industry partners." The Snapdragon Digital Chassis system-on-a-chip from Qualcomm Technologies will serve as the technological foundation for this capability. Back on Earth, we can see that the simple interior of the Afeela concept was designed to "[wrap] occupants in a soft cocoon." The exterior of the concept uses a "Media Bar" to communicate with humans nearby.

The evening of Day 1 (11th May, 2016) at India Shopping Centre Forum culminated in the 9th edition of the annual IMAGES Shopping Centre Awards (ISCA), which recognized outstanding shopping centres and professionals across the country under 29 different award categories in front of an audience comprising the who's who of retail and retail real estate businesses in India.
at the Images Shopping Centre Awards 2016.
Held at The Renaissance Hotel, Mumbai, ISCA 2016 honored India's leading malls -- from both metros and non-metros -- on basis of ROI and sales metrics for retailers, as well for outstanding marketing drives and social & community activities.
A special honor under the IMAGES Most Admired Shopping Centre of The Year: Socially Responsible category was given to Forum Vijaya Mall, Chennai, for its highly-lauded initiatives during the Chennai floods of 2015. A front runner in relief work and with the support of its staff and the tenants, the entire mall was open for citizens as a safe haven; hundreds spent three days within the mall. The cinema halls were used for accommodating people to rest overnight, the food court and the restaurants prepared food for thousands of people during the four-day period. The mall's hypermarket operated on all days; mall management bought groceries from the hypermarket in preparing food for the flood victims.
To shortlist and rank best performing malls in India for financial year 2015-16, IMAGES undertook a first of its kind exercise in the world -- involving over 200 top brands and retailers with their respective business development/ operations/ marketing & retail team members and associates -- to identify the best malls across India. Tenants in shopping centres with different retail verticals, formats and consumer segments joined in to rank malls on the basis of their overall performance including metrics like marketing promotion initiatives, trading density and ROI.
They voted and analysed centres that they were present in, as well as centres they would like to be present in. Eight of the 29 categories at ISCA 2016 were the RETAILERS' CHOICE AWARDS, decided purely by India's leading national retail chains who voted for their preferred shopping centres from across the country on the basis of Return on Investment or ROI, and sales per square feet.
Hosted by Freishia BomanBehram, the ceremony featured performances by the Manuel Manual Trio, with guitarist and composer Adil Manuel, singer & songwriter Shannon Donald and beat boxer extraordinaire, Alan D-Souza. The trio performed some several popular tracks, including Michael Jackson's Billie Jean and Adele's Rolling in the Deep. Also entertaining the audience was popular comedian and author Radhika Vaz.
The IMAGES Group is trusted as the catalyst for profitable growth of modern retail through knowledge platform leadership.
A strong portfolio of business publications covering all verticals of retail have served since 1992 to inform, advise and inspire the leaders and decision makers of the industry. The key retail verticals served by Images include Fashion, Textiles, Real Estate, Technology, Food Service, Food & Grocery, Retail Support, Beauty & Wellness and Franchising.
The need to connect with businesses, people, knowledge and ideas associated with modern retail is served by Images Business Exhibitions and networking meets. Images Conferences are usually conducted alongside the exhibitions, and feature global business leaders and experts. These powerful knowledge forums inspire not just debate and discussion, but policy decisions as well.
IMAGES Awards are respected as unbiased, transparent and accurate measures of retail performance. Other initiatives in Business Intelligence, Market Research, Retail Training and On-line Community Building also play important roles in further developing the world's most attractive retail destination – India.

The Digital Future of Software Sales
Tackle CEO John Jahnke shares his vision for the future of software sales, and what has to change to get there.
Multi-Marketplace Marketing Strategy Marketplace Strategy
John Jahnke, CEO at Tackle
B2B selling and buying is broken. There is friction at every turn and go-to-market systems are growing more complex by the day. Why is it that, in a software-driven business world, it's still so hard to buy and sell software?
Buyer behavior is changing. Gartner says 80% of sales interactions will be in digital channels by 2025. But most go-to-market systems are not built for this future.
No matter how much chatter you hear about product-led growth, usage-based pricing, and Cloud Marketplaces, the reality is we are currently operating in a human-based era of go-to-market. Leaders build business plans around the people that bring their go-to-market to life. The real question is — given all these new ways of selling — what is standing in the way of these new motions truly becoming the primary way that software companies sell?
I talk a lot about this in a keynote I hosted over the summer, and I wanted to expand a bit further on the idea of human-based go-to-market.
How companies GTM today
It all starts at the top, with the plan. For software companies, building your annual plan is a mix of art and science, and the younger your company, the more difficult and art-based your planning process is.
If you're a CEO, CRO, or CFO you'll start planning with the current number of sales reps, then an estimated quota number, and expected production. Next, you do some math against where you want to be next year to figure out how many people are required to hit that goal.
There are many factors, but it ultimately all starts with people.
Building an integrated go-to-market system is hard. Really hard.
Next, you'll move to the people in the supporting layers of the system — marketing, renewals and expansion, customer success, partners — and see what each of these organizations can contribute.
If the company has a strong product and solid net dollar retention, renewals should contribute new ARR to the plan via expansion, but all other functions tend to focus on lead input into the system. Everyone is doing math around leads and conversion rates and trying to be as accurate as possible, but there are a lot of variables in these layers.
At this point, you have a multi-faceted group of people who all need to work together to deliver on the original plan, but all of these teams work in different ways. Further, these teams often work in different tools, and many of these tools operate in silos where integration can be complex and time-consuming.
CRMs, like Salesforce, are considered a "source of truth" for most organizations, but require manual data entry and upkeep, are built on top of lagging indicators, and lack real-time visibility.
This leads to people-based systems that operate in offline ways and are not truly connected to each other. While more tools are emerging – almost daily – to help improve many segments of this GTM ecosystem, most of these new tools only address a narrow slice of the problem.
The reality is a true GTM system-level observability is not possible today.
As you scale, you start to add more business models, more ways of selling, and communities and ecosystem to support your product and users. This includes multiple packages, free trials, bottoms-up motions, top-down enterprise sales motions, and new digital selling motions like the Marketplaces and product-led growth.
At this point if you tried mapping out your end-to-end integrated GTM system it would probably look more like a maze than a map.
Today's GTM isn't sustainable
Ultimately, something must be working. More software companies than ever are being started and more venture dollars than ever are flowing into these companies. Buyers are buying more software based upon the massive expansion in B2B software dollars year over year.
But when you add it all up, working in this human-based, offline way is expensive, wasteful, and unpredictable. The cost of GTM systems is growing significantly and paying $1-2 dollars for every $1 dollar of ARR is not sustainable.
We are in the earliest days of a massive shift in the way that software companies generate revenue—a digital revenue transformation.
All companies, leaders, and investors want to drive revenue in a predictable way. To paraphrase ex-Google Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt, revenue solves all problems and lack of predictability makes people nervous.
While human-based systems are predictable from a planning standpoint—in the words of Mike Tyson—"everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth."
It is easy for CEOs, CROs, and CFOs to build up and to the right models, but it all depends on people. According to Forrester, average sales attainment is roughly 45%, which means you have to pay for way more capacity than you actually need to make the plan you create. And it's no longer just about sales. It is about all of those integrated layered organizations that make up your GTM system — marketing, partners, sales, and customer success all working together as one integrated system.
Short-term, we anticipate the problem will become even more complex as companies add more channels, business models, people, tools which all equals complexity and cost.
Something needs to change.
This is why I believe we are in the earliest days of a massive shift in the way that software companies generate revenue—a digital revenue transformation.
The future of software sales
Ten years from now, the nature of software sales will look very different than it does today. What does digital revenue transformation mean? A few things:
A new era of buyers: Gartner says buyers spend 83% of their time on other activities before ever engaging with potential suppliers. When buyers do engage, they will look for and desire help, but this help will likely come late in their analysis process.
Review sites are table stakes: Reviews and user feedback will become more important to B2B buying as more buyers spend less time with suppliers and look to leverage their peers as experts
Relationships expand: Communities and ecosystems will play a bigger and bigger role in sharing the social proof of successful users.
Seamless experience expectations: Buyers will look for and expect expert assistance and a seamless digital experience beyond emails, spreadsheets, PDF quotes, and Zoom calls. Think Carvana vs old school dealers with paper and fake managers negotiating prices.
Buyers' desires reign supreme: Buyers will want to buy in the way that makes most sense to them—bottoms-up, tops-down, free trial, usage-based, Marketplaces, or most likely combination of all.
Sellers cater to digital buyers: Sellers will need to sell where buyers want to buy. This will be digital and could be many places. For simplicity's sake, we will say the future of software sales will include multi-channel ecommerce.
Better pricing pages: Pricing pages will be intuitive, transparent, and actionable, unlike most pricing pages today. They will become an actual purchase point for buyers rather than a barrier to speak to a sales rep.
More dynamic pricing: Pricing will evolve to be more dynamic than the traditional annual price change that happens in most B2B companies.
The data rules change: Sellers will no longer tolerate having to enter data into multiple locations (or at all) and buyers will get more restrictive with the information they enter and share.
Leaders will become experts in digital selling and engaging with their buyers wherever they want to be met. The darlings of product-led growth are the best examples of this today. We can all learn from these companies, but their products tend to have simple value propositions to users which makes adoption more intuitive. Most B2B software ends up being more complex.
In the future, humans will complement a software-based GTM system and not the other way around.
The shift is similar in scale to the shift that took place in the pre-cloud to post-cloud era with infrastructure. Non-elastic; expensive; pay for peak, not for usage. How can we bring similar scale principles into go-to-market systems over the next 10 years?
Ultimately in the future, humans will complement a software-based GTM system and not the other way around. If you squint your eyes and turn your head, you can see the leading indicators of this future. Product-led growth, usage-based pricing, and Marketplaces are all strong signals of a software-based GTM system. Also, every software company is struggling with the need to build software to sell software. No one wants to do it—everyone wants to focus on core value propositions.
The future of software GTM will be online; it will be digital. There will be many different solutions making up these GTM systems, but they will all work together in seamless ways with the core premise that buyers will buy in an ever growing number of ways (multi-channel e-commerce), sellers will help buyers buy via digital experiences (online/collaborative), and GTM systems will require seamless integration with deep instrumentation, logging, and observability.
This is the future state we are excited to be part of and are working hard to bring to life.

Reports and Resources
Cost of Cerebral Palsy
The financial impact of cerebral palsy is considerable both to the person with cerebral palsy, their family and the healthcare system.
Kruse et al (2009) estimated that the lifetime cost of cerebral palsy at $1.3 Million USD (approximately £990,000) per person with cerebral palsy, although this is only based on a small sample and is probably an underestimate.
With approximately 165,000 people with CP in the UK (based on UK population data and a 1in 400 prevalence rate), the overall lifetime cost of cerebral palsy in the UK could be estimated at £160 Billion.
The costs associated with cerebral palsy vary considerably with the cost increasing with the severity of impairment.
Petrou et al (2013) states, when looking at neurodisability as a whole states that the annual cost of mild neurodisability is £831 per annum whereas severe impairment is estimated to cost £1662.
Action Cerebral Palsy believes that effective early intervention represents not only the best outcome for children and their families but also the most cost effective use of increasingly scarce health and social care resources. Effective early intervention results in reduced financial burden for both the family and the state as a whole.

PSM Applauds FDA Commissioner Hamburg for Outstanding Service
On behalf of the Partnership for Safe Medicines (PSM), we would like to thank Dr. Hamburg for her outstanding service to our country as the Commissioner of the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) for the past six years.
Washington, D.C. (February 5, 2014) – Scott LaGanga, Executive Director of the Partnership for Safe Medicines, issued the following statement on the announced departure of Dr. Margaret Hamburg as Commissioner of the Food & Drug Administration:
"On behalf of the Partnership for Safe Medicines (PSM), we would like to thank Dr. Hamburg for her outstanding service to our country as the Commissioner of the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) for the past six years. Her departure marks a great loss for the FDA, as her strong track record as a champion of sound, science-based medicine has greatly improved health outcomes for millions of Americans.
"Additionally, PSM is incredibly appreciative of Commissioner Hamburg's tireless commitment to safe medicines, which has placed the U.S. at the forefront of the global fight against counterfeits. Under her tenure, the FDA established the BeSafeRX Campaign in 2012 to educate Americans about the risks of buying prescription medications from fake online pharmacies. PSM was also honored to have Commissioner Hamburg twice serve as the keynote speaker for its annual Interchange Conference. Her commitment to patient safety from the beginning of her stewardship of the FDA has helped build a solid foundation that we hope her successor will build upon and enhance.
"While there is still much work to be done to eliminate counterfeits, patients in the U.S. and around the world have benefitted greatly from Commissioner Hamburg's service. We wish her the utmost success in her future endeavors and look forward to working closely with the next FDA Commissioner."

La prison de Frankland () est une prison britannique pour hommes de catégorie A située dans le village de , dans le comté de Durham, en Angleterre. Frankland est exploité par le His Majesty's Prison Service .

Histoire
La prison de Frankland ouvre à l'origine en  avec quatre ailes d'une pouvant accueillir 108 personnes chacune dans des cellules individuelles. Deux autres ailes ouvrent en  conçues sous la forme de galeries ouvertes et pouvant accueillir 206 détenus supplémentaires. Une unité spécialisée dans les troubles dangereux et graves de la personnalité (DSPD) a ouvert ses portes à la prison en .

La prison augmente sa capacité d'accueil depuis ces dernières années à la suite d'importants travaux de réaménagement, notamment la construction de la nouvelle DSPD « Westgate Unit ». En , le ministère de la Justice annonce que Frankland serait à nouveau agrandi, un permis de construire étant accordé pour la construction de 120 places supplémentaires.

Description
Frankland est une  où sont incarcérés des détenus de sexe masculin âgés de plus de 21 ans qui exécutent généralement  des peines de 4 ans ou plus ou des peines à perpétuité. L'établissement accueille également des prévenus considérés comme étant à haut risque. La prison a été surnommée « Monster Mansion » (surnom également donné à la prison de Wakefield) en raison du nombre important de détenus reconnus coupables de meurtres, de crimes sexuels à haut risque et d'infractions liées au terrorisme. La zone de détention de la prison est divisée en plusieurs ailes, les ailes A à D pouvant accueillir 108 détenus chacune, les ailes F et G en accueillant 208 supplémentaires tandis que l'aile J en accueille 120. Toutes les cellules sont individuelles.

Le centre de santé de la prison se compose d'un service de 4 lits et de 10 chambres meublées, d'un cabinet dentaire, d'une radiographie et d'une suite destinée à accueillir les détenus souffrant de crise suicidaire. Différents types de consultations médicales sont organisées, dont beaucoup sont menées par des spécialistes en visite. Il existe également des services de télémédecine. Les soins de base sont sous-traités au County Durham & Darlington Foundation Trust.

La prison de Frankland dispose enfin d'un centre d'accueil pour les visiteurs dont les installations comprennent une cantine et une aire de jeux pour enfants, toutes accessibles aux personnes à mobilité réduite.

Actions de réinsertion par le travail et la formation des détenus
Les activités de formation à destination des détenus sont assurées par le , avec une large gamme de cours dispensés - allant des compétences de base jusqu'à des cours du niveau de l'enseignement supérieur. La prison de Frankland propose également des ateliers de fabrication de meubles, un atelier caritatif et un atelier de vision et d'ouïe. Elle dispose d'une bibliothèque et d'un gymnase pour soutenir l'apprentissage et les loisirs des détenus.
