The Oasis Hotel and Spa is a boutique hotel situated in the popular and picturesque resort of Kalkan. Remodelled in 2012 the Oasis hotel and Spa incorporates 32 rooms, 8 of which have their own private pool, 2 swimming pools and a spa.
We are an adult only hotel conveniently situated on the Kalamar Road just a 15 minute stroll into town and the harbour front where you can find amongst the narrow cobbled streets highly decorated shops and romantic roof-top restaurants. With its wonderful location it's the perfect base for holiday in Kalkan.
Myself and the girlfriend stayed in a private pool room which is situated above the room and has a great view of the bay while you are relaxing. There is room for a number of deckchairs and with the mini bar downstairs you don't really have to move unless you want to! As others have said breakfast is nice with hot pancakes/fruits/toast and cereals which is probably better than the usual all you can eat fry up for the waist line.
Have just spent a fantastic 10 days here, the underlying thing you notice is that the staff here are quite frankly fantastic,they just can't do enough for you and everything you ask for is greeted with a smile.The surprise here was the food in the evening at the fantastic terraced restaurant with superb views of Kalkan, if you've been to Kalkan you'll already know if you love quality food you can't beat it but the restaurant borders on almost Michelin star quality in both taste and presentation, Chef is top notch. All great but special thanks to Semma, Andy & Gurkan, just superb. Already looking at booking for September.

Blue train in false start
By Shingirai Madondo
The newly re-launched passenger train has disappointed on first day of operation. It failed to takeoff for its Francistown-Gaborone scheduled trip on Wednesday night because of mechanical and electrical faults. The BR engineers spent almost eight hours trying to fix a malfunctioning generator van, a story that comes amid allegations that the coaches are not new, and neither is the locomotive is best of conditions.
The train has returned and it will stop at six (6) strategic stations being Lobatse, Gaborone, Mahalapye, Palapye, Serule and Francistown. The newly branded passenger train was scheduled to leave Francistown at 9pm sharp on Wednesday night but patrons sat through a series of delays lasting up to an unbearable eight hours.
Scores of the re-introduced Botswana Railways (BR) Express passengers were left frustrated and angry after the highly anticipated mode of transport failed to take off as scheduled in Francistown on Wednesday night. This publication gathered that what is seen as a factory fault, the locomotive was mixing water with fuel and electrical signals were being transmitted throughout the train.
Since its stoppage in 2009, Batswana had been longing for the passenger train. And the reinstatement had been welcomed by Batswana with both hands – only to be disappointed at the very last minute.
As if they were clamoring to be in the Guinness World Book of Records, passenger train customers started buying tickets as early 8am on Wednesday in order for them to be the first to embark on the new train.
However, all their ambitions were shattered with the passenger train failing to take off as scheduled. And Wednesday night's wintry weather in Francistown left the passengers disconcerted, angry and exasperated.
Dozens of passengers who wanted to be the first ones to board the new passenger were frustrated and ended up hiking to Gaborone during the night. And when the passenger train left Francistown for Gaborone at around 5am on Thursday, a lot of passengers had already left, sources said.
"I just need my money back. I wanted to be the first traveling with the re-launched passenger train but Botswana Railways have failed me dismally," said an irate James, who could not reveal his second name.
Another passenger added: "After six or so years of no passenger train, my impression was that Botswana Railways will bring a service that surpasses what they used to offer us before. I am really disappointed. And I will never use the passenger anymore."
With a single voice, scores of agitated passengers nearly caused a chaos at the Francistown station in order to get their refund. Passengers have vowed not to spread any good word about the Botswana Railways.
"First cut is always the deepest. And the expectation is that Botswana Railways should have done their homework before rather than selling us a dummy," said Norman Nkageng of Gweta village.
Around midnight, the BR CEO Dominic Ntwaagae addressed the angry passengers and pleaded for restraint as they were still fighting for the restoration of the train service. He revealed that the coaches were experiencing a power failure and the engineers were still working on them.
Efforts to get a comment from the BR spokesperson Kebabonye Morwaagae on the exact number of passengers who finally made it to Gaborone with the new passenger train at around 5am on Thursday drew a blank.
Morwaagae was not picking up his phone until press. He could not live up to his promise he made through a text message: "Can I call you later!" he did not call back as he promised until press time.
At the launch held in Lobatse this week, President Dr Lt Gen Ian Khama said Botswana Railways has procured thirty-seven (37) coaches to operate this Service between Lobatse and Francistown. He noted that the service will be operated as night trains on a daily basis. "Day trains will be operated during public holidays in addition to the night service to cater for demand. The aim is therefore, to complement the road and air services to improve mobility and also to facilitate trade," he said.
Khama said Botswana Railways as a commercial enterprise of the Government with the primary mandate to provide efficient and cost effective railway transportation of goods and passengers within the borders of Botswana started operating its passenger train service in 1991 until its stoppage in April 2009. It is almost nine (9) years since the Passenger Train Service was discontinued.
"Let me also take you a step back so as to understand the circumstances that led to discontinuing the passenger train service. The stoppage was attributed to the fact that the coaches were in an unacceptable condition and there was a high level of risk exposure for the Organisation, as well as to the passengers and no longer viable to continue. Therefore, it was logical to discontinue the Passenger Train Service at that time. However since then, year by year there has been an increase in traffic density on our roads resulting in traffic congestion," he said.
Khama said in view of the above, the Government accepted recommendations from a study commissioned by Botswana Railways, through the Ministry of Transport and Communications, which showed high public demand for the train to be brought back, which is why we are all gathered here to mark the official launch of the re-instatement of the Botswana Railways passenger service.

This short animated explainer video was produced in our Nottingham studio for NCT.
When Nottingham City Transport acquired a new fleet of bio-gas powered buses, they needed a short explainer video to tell people about bio-gas is made and how bio-gas benefits people in Nottingham.
Initially this was going to be a live action video, however after some consultation we suggested an animation, and Mr NCT said Yes!
The video is now being rolled out across social media, and will be used in their schools education program.

Report: Solid Opportunity to Sell Marketing and Data Management Services to Local Merchants
May 24, 2017 May 22, 2017 by David Card
As local merchants increasingly shift their marketing spending to digital tactics, they're becoming more sophisticated in how they manage those programs. Street Fight's latest analysis of its local small business survey shows a much higher adoption rate of digital dashboards and the like compared with previous research, and it's not just driven by the big spenders.
To help suppliers better understand and meet the needs of local merchants, Street Fight in February conducted an online survey of owners and decision-makers at over 25o small and medium-sized businesses (fewer than 50 employees but with at least one physical location). Since the last time Street Fight surveyed this type of company in 2014-15, we've observed an increased movement towards digital tactics that continues to be lead by social media and email marketing.
This year, we also focused in on local merchants that spend $25,000 or more yearly on marketing of all types. These big spenders — comprising nearly 30% of local merchants — are the best targets for new marketing products and services, as they're the most likely to increase spending across a variety of marketing categories and they're the earlier adopters of new technologies. However, they're not the only game in town. Our survey showed evidence of momentum spending at all budget sizes. That is, the more a company spent, the more likely it was to increase spending, even if starting from a relatively small base.
Tactics these local merchants found most effective, e.g., social and email, will see more businesses boosting their budgets for them. But even areas where local merchants said they needed help, such as search marketing of all types, and digital display advertising, should see more spending this year.
At the same time, local merchants are getting smarter about how they measure marketing effectiveness. While the plurality ask customers directly, and just under 20% don't try to monitor where business is coming from, the use of site analytics has doubled, and promotional codes and call-tracking have more than tripled in the last two years.
As shown above, nearly half of local merchants use social media management tools, a figure that's up nearly 15 percentage points versus our previous survey, when it was also the top-ranked tool. More striking, over a third of survey respondents said they used a digital dashboard, which is more than twice as many as before. Other techniques show 20% penetration or better, but these figures are boosted by the big spenders. They're three or four times more likely to use things like marketing automation, listings management, or third-party site analytics than those with smaller marketing budgets. Still, fewer than half use those services, so there's lots of opportunity to sell them to the bigger guys, and, in time, to the smaller spenders.
The survey tells a similar story on customer information tools. Local merchants regardless of budget size use spreadsheets and paper about equally. But the big spenders are three times more likely to use a real CRM platform, systems that integrate point of sales systems with marketing, or third-party data on purchasing.
Our analysis suggests there's a solid opportunity for suppliers and agencies to assist local merchants with their marketing ROI analysis through dashboards that bundle third-party data that they can compare with their own customer info. That data will likely be stored and managed in rudimentary databases, to use the term "database" loosely. So that means either a lot of handholding or simplified data absorption techniques.
These dashboards should help coach the local business what matters and what to do about it to earn their full engagement. That also requires a complex sales and training process, or easy-to-use templates and mocked-up processes adaptable to a variety of industries. Neither approach is easy, but the installed base of tools, while growing, is still under-populated, even at businesses with larger budgets.

At Collage, we believe deep down that there is beauty and value in everyone.
Often times though, we have a hard time seeing that beauty. Perhaps it's buried under the rubble of past decisions or circumstances that life has handed us. But no matter how badly we've been broken and tarnished, the fact is, beauty remains, waiting to be uncovered. At Collage, we've experienced the restoration of beauty in our own lives, and that compels us to help others seek the beauty within them.
Our promise is simple. We'll be a safe place: a place of hope and restoration…a place where those facing the reality of an STD, an unexpected pregnancy or a struggle with a past pregnancy decision can begin to discover beauty despite their circumstances.
We do this by offering complimentary and confidential medical services like pregnancy tests, limited OB ultrasounds and STD testing & treatment.
We also provide early intervention programs for those at risk of unhealthy sexual behavior.
Some in our community have experienced abortion and are struggling with their decision. For them, we're here to listen and help begin their healing process.
All of this is available because of the incredible support of our communities. Because of their involvement, we're able to help those who are experiencing difficult circumstances…those who often feel like they have nowhere else to go.

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho wanted the Red Devils to sign Ivan Perisic from Inter Milan in the summer transfer window of 2017. Unfortunately for the former Real Madrid and Chelsea manager, Ivan Perisic continued with Inter Milan and signed a new contract.

As per the information gathered by the Manchester Evening News, the manager of Manchester United is still interested in the player who made it to the final of the FIFA 2018 World Cup with Croatia. His side lost to France in the final.
Manchester United are ready to revive their interest in signing Inter Milan winger Ivan Perisic in the summer transfer window. To smoothen the deal, the Red Devils are willing to sacrifice their defender Matteo Darmian.
Matteo Darmian has not been regularly used by Jose Mourinho last season and Manchester United want to cash in from his sale in the summer transfer window.
Inter Milan are interested in the Italian professional footballer and the Red Devils could use him as a bait in helping them sign the Croatian professional footballer who was one of the star players of the FIFA 2018 World Cup.
As per the information gathered by the Manchester Evening News, Matteo Darmian's days as a Manchester United player are now numbered. The full back is now expected to return to Italy in the summer transfer window.
Manchester United could use player plus cash offer in signing Ivan Perisic from Inter Milan. Ivan Perisic scored 11 goals for Inter Milan last season.

El títol de baró d'Algerri fou creat el 1541 per l'emperador Carles I per al senyor del castell d'Algerri Joan Comallonga, que també era el seu secretari. Poc temps després, però, la baronia fou adquirida pel Monestir de Poblet, fins a la desamortització. El 1931 el títol fou rehabilitat per a Carles de Camps i d'Olzinellas, segon Marquès de Camps, els seus descendents encara ostenten aquesta dignitat.

Худия (лат. Hoodia) — род суккулентных растений семейства Кутровые, родом из Южной Африки. Входит в трибу Стапеливые (Stapelieae).

Один вид Худия – Hoodia gordonii, добился определенной известности и разногласий после того как его исследовали на предмет использования в качестве возможного средства для подавления аппетита.

Описание
Худия — это стеблевые суккуленты, которые описывают как «кактусовые» из-за их удивительного сходства с неродственным семейством кактусов. Они имеют ветвящуюся кустовидную форму, а самые крупные виды (Hoodia parviflora) могут вырасти до размеров дерева — более 2 м в высоту.

Цветки чрезвычайно разнообразны по размеру — от менее 1 см до почти 20 см в диаметре, в зависимости от вида. Цветки появляются в большом количестве, всегда возле верхушек стеблей. Цветы более крупных видов (таких как Hoodia gordonii) часто имеют розово-коричневый цвет, пластинчатую форму, с неприятным запахом, привлекающим мух-опылителей. Более мелкие и темные цветы некоторых видов имеют гораздо более сильный и неприятный запах, чем более крупные.

Распространение

Род Худия ограничен засушливыми регионами в западной части Южной Африки. Особенно распространен в пустыне Намиб и в долине Оранжевой реки. Типичная среда обитания — скалистые склоны и открытые каменистые равнины. Растения обычно прорастают в укрытии кустов или камней, но выживают также на открытом воздухе во взрослом состоянии.

Таксономия
Группа была впервые описана как род в 1844 году.

, A.P.de Candolle, Prodr. 8: 664 (1844), nom. cons. prop..

Этимология
Hoodia: родовое латинское наименование, вероятно, происходящее от доктора Уильяма Чемберлена Худа (1790–1879), британского хирурга.

Синонимы
Гетеротипные (основанные на разных номенклатурных типах):

 Monothylaceum G.Don (1837), not validly publ.
 Scytanthus Hook. (1834).
 Trichocaulon N.E.Br. (1878)

Виды
Филогенетические исследования показали, что род Худия является монофилетическим и наиболее тесно связан с родом стапелий Lavrania. Незначительно более дальним родством является сестринская ветвь родственных родов, включая Larryleachia, Richtersveldia и Notechidnopsis.

Подтвержденные виды по данным сайта Plants of the World Online на 2022 год:

 Hoodia alstonii (N.E.Br.) Plowes
 Hoodia currorii (Hook.) Decne.
 Hoodia dregei N.E.Br.
 Hoodia flava (N.E.Br.) Plowes
 Hoodia gordonii (Masson) Sweet ex Decne.

Q: HTTP Pseudostreaming using PHP w/ ffmpeg to JW Player We're trying to do HTTP Pseudostreaming from a PHP source that's outputting the results from ffmpeg.
Below is the code we're using to output the stream. If I access this URL directly (../stream.php) an flv file is downloaded. If I use that flv file as the source in JW Player, it works without a problem. However, when I have stream.php as the source, it doesn't work and I get the error : "Error loading player:
No playable sources found"
The code we're using in stream.php is:
 header("Accept-Ranges: bytes");
 header("Content-type: video/flv");
 header("X-Mod-H264-Streaming: version=2.2.7");

 $cmd = 'ffmpeg -re -i source.mp4 -map_chapters -1 -vcodec:0 copy -b:v:0 885918 -bf:0 2 -threads:0 0 -s:0 720x404 -partitions:0 +parti4x4+parti8x8+partp4x4+partp8x8+partb8x8 -acodec:1 copy -b:1 104684 -ac:1 2 -ar:1 44100 -f flv -';

  if ($handle = popen($cmd, 'r')) {

    sleep(3);

    echo fread($handle, 8024000);
    ob_flush();

    while (!feof($handle)){
        echo fread($handle, 8024000);
        ob_flush();
    }

    pclose($handle);

  }

Our JW Player code is:
<script type="text/javascript">
    jwplayer("myElement").setup({
        file : "/stream.php?start=0",
        provider : 'http',
        'http.startparam' :'start',
        flashplayer : '/js/jwplayer.flash.swf',
              autostart : 'true',
              allowscriptaccess:'always',
              modes: [
            {type: 'html5'},
            {type: 'flash'},
            {type: 'download'}
        ],
        height: 270,
        width: 480
        });
</script>

Any ideas what could be wrong with this?
Thank you!

A: jwplayer has problem with reading (urlencoding special characters like ? & ) vars in that format
best way is to do rewrite url for stream.php in htaccess :
RewriteRule  ^stream-video/(.*)/(.*) stream.php?token=$1&file=$2 [QSA,L]

This way you could pass file url with :
http://example.com/stream-video/token-optional/filename-or-id.mp4

Hope this helps..
btw did you have luck with flv streaming via php and X-Mod-H264-Streaming?

Today's Article - Bryce Canyon National Park
This article is for quizzes on Monday February 6th...
Bryce Canyon National Park is a National Park located in southwestern Utah in the United States. The major feature of the park is Bryce Canyon, which despite its name, is not a canyon, but a collection of giant natural amphitheaters along the eastern side of the Paunsaugunt Plateau. Bryce is distinctive due to geological structures called hoodoos, formed by frost weathering and stream erosion of the river and lake bed sedimentary rocks. The red, orange, and white colors of the rocks provide spectacular views for park visitors. Bryce sits at a much higher elevation than nearby Zion National Park. The rim at Bryce varies from 8,000 to 9,000 feet (2,400 to 2,700 m).
The Bryce Canyon area was settled by Mormon pioneers in the 1850s and was named after Ebenezer Bryce, who homesteaded in the area in 1874. The area around Bryce Canyon became a National Monument in 1923 and was designated as a National Park in 1928. The park covers 35,835 acres (55.992 sq mi; 14,502 ha; 145.02 km2) and receives relatively few visitors compared to Zion National Park and the Grand Canyon, largely due to its remote location.
Bryce Canyon was not formed from erosion initiated from a central stream, meaning it technically is not a canyon. Instead headward erosion has excavated large amphitheater-shaped features in the Cenozoic-aged rocks of the Paunsaugunt Plateau. This erosion exposed delicate and colorful pinnacles called hoodoos that are up to 200 feet (60 m) high. A series of amphitheaters extends more than 20 miles (30 km) north-to-south within the park. The largest is Bryce Amphitheater, which is 12 miles (19 km) long, 3 miles (5 km) wide and 800 feet (240 m) deep. A nearby example of amphitheaters with hoodoos in the same formation but at a higher elevation, is in Cedar Breaks National Monument, which is 25 miles (40 km) to the west on the Markagunt Plateau.
Rainbow Point, the highest part of the park at 9,105 feet (2,775 m), is at the end of the 18-mile (29 km) scenic drive.[9] From there, Aquarius Plateau, Bryce Amphitheater, the Henry Mountains, the Vermilion Cliffs and the White Cliffs can be seen. Yellow Creek, where it exits the park in the north-east section, is the lowest part of the park at 6,620 feet (2,020 m).

B&B! Q&A
B&B! Q&A: Michelle Casey and the Super Electric Fountain of Youth
14/04/2014 14/04/2014 / MANY BRAVE FOOLS	/ Leave a comment
Okay, I'm juuuust a tiny bit excited to talk about my experience of the Viora Reaction Skin Tightening Frequency treatment, which I received at Aqua Beauty, Stillorgan, from the hands of the owner herself, Michelle Casey. The clinic was awarded the Guinot Crown Award for 2014, and has been a leader in the beauty field for fifteen years.
Originally from Galway, Michelle had worked in a family business from an early age, and says, 'I was aware of all stresses that a business can bring and the enjoyment, too. My Grandmother used to always say, if you own half a counter, own it yourself! So I decided to move from Galway and open my beauty clinic, the first of its type in Ireland at that time and have never looked back.'
First, a few Qs with Michelle, then the verdict on the process (as if you couldn't already tell how I feel about it, from the headline.)
After all this time, are you still excited to be in the beauty biz?
I look forward to going to work every day, meeting my super team and all my clients. I have a strong passion and absolutely love what I do. I am a people person and love looking after and making my clients feel good!
Has the business changed much in fifteen years? How do you keep everything on the cutting edge?
Absolutely. Clients are more demanding and want immediate results: Irish women and men are very cosmopolitan and travel a lot now. Men are more open and savvy.
I myself travel a lot, and listen to my clients as to the kind of results they are looking for and usually that's what inspires me. I will then go and source the best available treatment — I did this even through the recession. It's so important to stay ahead of the game and that's what I love so much about owning my own business.
Tell us a bit about the procedure you offered to B&B?
It's called the Viora Reaction Skin Tightening Radio Frequency treatment. My clients are blown away by the results, and by how straightforward the whole process is. It's pain-free and there's no downtime required. It can be used on face and on the body and to firm, sculpt and tighten the skin. It's a fabulous treatment for jowls and sagging skin around the neck area and to contour the body.
What is so appealing about this particular treatment?
The fight against ageing will always be top of the list for women in particular. Your future will be written all over your face, so it's so important to look after your skin now. Technology is so powerful today when it comes to non invasive anti-ageing treatments. This will go from strength to strength over the next few years. I'm really excited to be a part of that industry and bring these innovations to Ireland.
Any beauty tips for the readers?
My beauty tips are never go to bed with make-up on, and invest in a good cleansing routine. I adore DR Daniello Profound Advanced Performance Glycolic Cleanser, Dermalogica's Skin Smoothing cream and Guinot's Instant Radiance Moisturising Mask. A course of customised facials are a fabulous investment that keeps on giving.
I really had no idea what to expect from this procedure. I'd had laser, and had rather memorably freaked out about it; at this stage in my career I hop up on treatment tables with a high degree of aplomb.
Michelle explained the process: using three different radio frequency channels, Viora stimulates collagen and elsatin production, the slowing down of which is what causes wrinkles and sagging skin. The applicator looks like a laser thingie, and its tiny zaps of current, at the contact point, felt like I imagine a staple gun feels — but, I also imagine, with far less pain. Michelle worked for 45 minutes on each side of my face. Here's are pictures of that midpoint:
I love the look of delighted shock in my eyes in the second one.
Once I knew what to expect — little blasts of very manageable heat at the contact point on my face — I almost fell asleep during the second half of my face. This is the end result:
I gotta say, four months later, I'm still seeing the benefit. A client is only permitted eight treatments per year, because otherwise the skin overstimulates, and there's the possibility of an increase in wrinkleage and sagging. No thanks!
Had I needed to, I could have put on makeup straightaway: there was no redness, no pain, and absolutely no downtime.
Also: this works on cellulite, and I've seen evidence that it works on bingo wings! Need I say more?

B&B! Q&A: Sebastian Pole and Pukka Ayurveda
Way back in April of 2012, I came across some press info about Pukka Ayurveda, and its founder, Sebastian Pole. I ended up taking a quiz on their website that informed me of my dosha, the designation of which would then inform me as to how to improve my life.
A lifelong taker-of-quizzes-in-magazines, I wasn't surprised by the result, but I was intrigued by the resulting tumble down the ayurveda rabbit hole. The Hindu system of medicine is 'deals with physical health, mental balance, spiritual well-being, relationships and environmental issues', as described on the jacket of Pole's 2011 book, A Pukka Life.
Pukka Ayurveda offer a line of teas and other health remedies, as well as skincare. 'The essence of Ayurveda fits perfectly with what we want to share at Pukka,' says Pole. 'We want to plant, grow, harvest and blend herbal teas and remedies to enhance life.'
There's natural, and then there's organic: could you talk about how Pukka Ayurveda is an industry leader in the latter?
The organic movement is our religion and we pray at the altar of the compost heap! Organic stands for sustainability. You put back in what you take out. You regenerate the soil that feeds you and your family. You try and improve what you have been given.
The principles of organic farming are also embodied within the essence of Ayurveda. They support and nourish the health of the whole: air, sun, water, soil are all equally interdependent in the well-being of our ecosystem and society. Respect for the billions of microorganisms in the soil is as important as practising the highest animal welfare standards. Nurturing wildlife is as important as not spraying toxic chemicals.
Organic farming really does stand for life. One of the best ways to tell that a farm is really organic is by the amount of 'weeds' that you can see. Weeds are an indication of the health of the ecosystem: attracting insects, raising nutrients from the deeper layers of soil. Of course weeds are often healthy herbs themselves, just think of dandelions!
Everything we make is certified 100% organic. The Soil Association, the UK's leading organic charity, says 'consumers who purchase organic products are not just buying food which has not been covered in pesticides (the average apple may be sprayed up to sixteen times with as many as 30 different pesticides), they are supporting a system that has the highest welfare standards for animals, bans routine use of antibiotics, and increases wildlife on farms.'
Can you talk about how you have created a sustainable community for your growers, and by extension, for the brand?
Realising that we could contribute to conservation through commerce was a light bulb moment for us. It seemed clear that if nature has more value 'alive' than 'dead' then we will protect her. And rather idealistically — from our spare bedroom in Bristol — this is what we wanted to do with Pukka.
We saw a society in need of a deeper connection with nature, and communities seeking a more natural life. It was something we craved ourselves, and realised that it was something many other people wanted too. Our dream was to create a pukka-quality company that would bring people and plants together. Our passion for health, for nature and for the wisdom of Ayurveda was the catalyst for founding Pukka Herbs and it still is today.
Through making organic Ayurvedic products we could bring some value to these threatened forests. By paying farmers and collectors above market prices for the herbs we use at Pukka we could help protect the dwindling eco-systems. By making organic farming practices worth more than soil-destroying conventional methods we could incentivise conservation of the earth. Commerce could lead to conservation.
I think that many people may be glancingly acquainted with the principles of Ayurveda – could you explain its essentials for us?
Ayurveda is amazing. It's India's ancient system of health, and yet so much more. It's a way to live and a way to understand and transform your life. It is often translated as 'knowledge of life' and encompasses the idea of how to live wisely. In particular it is the knowledge of how to live according to your unique and individual constitutional make up that puts the choices of how you exist firmly in your court.
At its core, Ayurveda teaches respect for nature and an appreciation of life, by showing how we can empower ourselves as individuals. It understands that our individual health cannot be considered as separate from anyone else's — from our family, work, society and planet's health. It describes in intricate detail how you can fulfil your potential.
What could be a better guide for us to have at the centre of Pukka's values? The wisdom of Ayurveda is an anytime, anywhere, anyone sort of wisdom. It is expressed as a way of life that flows with the changes of the seasons, weather, time and place. It teaches dietary and behavioural adjustments that can be adopted as you mature from childhood through to adulthood and into old age.
It also gives advice on how to prevent illness as one season becomes another, and specific recommendations on how to adjust your daily habits. This way of wholesome living prescribes a routine for all the different climates and geographical regions of the world. At the root of Ayurveda is its focus on the uniqueness of each individual. As such it is a universal system applicable to every individual living in any part of the world. It is personal medicine at its best.
I don't like toners, but I love the Uplifting Toner. I love to moisturise, and I have been using the Deep Moisture Day Cream to great effect. What's particularly special about both?
What is particularly special about these two products, as well as our whole skincare collection, is two main things: the excellence of the ingredients and the brilliance of Ayurveda at rejuvenating the skin.
The Uplifting Toner is 100% organic and like all of our skincare products is certified by the Soil Association. It firms, uplifts, repairs and encourages cell renewal. It's also anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, and the toning and soothing effects are all due to the benefits of the delicate flower waters and plant extracts.
The Deep Moisture Day cream contains premium pressed seed oils and butters with a superior fatty acid profile to hydrate and enhance absorption deep into the skin. Skin active anti-aging plant extracts are used to target mature, dehydrated skin whilst also nurturing, deeply hydrating and restoring. The exotic, sweet scent of ylang ylang and uplifting and regenerating neroli blossom immediately lift your spirits.
I've tried the teas, too! The Pukka ethos seems to be holistic, and health as an inside-and-out proposition seems to be a big part of it. Can you talk about we can actually find better balance in life?
A simple way to find a more balanced life is to learn more about Ayurveda. It contains many insights into wise living.
I realised in my early twenties that there is no difference between our health on the inside and that of the world around us. Working towards a deeper awareness of each helps to nourish the whole of your life.
The best thing to do is to make sure that you spend as much of your life as possible doing what you love and being surrounded by people that you respect and enjoy being with.

Q: Javascript Array Passed to PHP Through Ajax I am trying to pass values from a multiple select listbox through Ajax to PHP.  I saw some examples in Jquery and JSON, however I am trying to accomplish this just in plain old javascript (Ajax).  Here is what I have so far (simplified):
Ajax:
function chooseMultiEmps(str)
  {
    var mEmpList2 = document.getElementById('mEmpList'); //values from the multi listbox
    for (var i = 0; i < mEmpList2.options.length; i++) //loop through the values
    var mEmpList = mEmpList2.options[i].value;  //create a variable to pass in string
    if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
    {
       xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
    }
    else
    {
        xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
    }
    xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function()
   {
   if (xmlhttp.readyState == 4 && xmlhttp.status == 200)
   {
      //specific selection text
      document.getElementById('info').innerHTML = xmlhttp.responseText;
   }
  }
  xmlhttp.open("POST", "myPage.php", true);
  xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
  var queryString = "&mEmpList=" + mEmpList; //query string should have multiple values
  xmlhttp.send(queryString);
}

I can run an alert(mEmpList) and get each value in individual message boxes, however when I retrieve and echo the $_POST['mEmpList'], I get only the first value.  Also, when I alert(queryString), I get only one value.
I think I need to create a comma delimited array, and then pass that through the query string.  From there, I can use the PHP implode/explode feature to separate the values.  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

A: here:
for (var i = 0; i < mEmpList2.options.length; i++) //loop through the values
var mEmpList = mEmpList2.options[i].value;  //create a variable to pass in string

you are redefining your mEmpList over and over again, that means only the last value is send
You could do:
var mEmpList = '';
for (var i = 0; i < mEmpList2.options.length; i++) { //loop through the values
    mEmpList = mEmpList +','+ mEmpList2.options[i].value;  //create a variable to pass in string
}

Also your queryString is not ok, no need for &
var queryString = "mEmpList=" + mEmpList;

That way at the end you will have all values delimite by comma ,
In PHP you can use explode to loop each value:
<?php
    $string = explode(',' $_GET['mEmpList']);
    for($i=1; $i<count($string); $i++){
        echo $string[$i]."<br />";
    }
?>

Rio 2016 Olympics, the most 'consumed' Games ever - Bach
with Reuters
2016 Rio Summer Olympic Games
The president of the International Olympic Committee, Thomas Bach has hailed the Rio Olympic Games for its success, describing it as the most consumed games ever.
The Rio Olympics, the first to be held in South America, was fraught with several challenges in the run-up to its commencement.
Organizers had to grapple with a protracted political crisis, the outbreak of the Zika virus which forced some athletes to withdraw from the games and Brazil slipped into its worst recession in more than 80 years.
In spite of the challenges though, the host city Rio, put up a spectacular event in its famed carnival atmosphere.
The competing athletes also put up stellar performances resulting in 100 world and Olympic records being set with several countries picking up their first ever Olympic medal.
"The Olympic Games Rio 2016 were a huge success beyond all our expectations in many respects," said Bach.
"First of all it was the most consumed Olympic Games ever with half of the world population following the Games with half of the world population following the Games with seven billion views on social media only.
"Secondly, these Olympic Games sent a great message of unity in diversity to the world, with all the 206 National Olympic Committees participating and embracing the first ever Refugee Olympic Team which was highly welcomed by the world.
"And finally we can also see the great credibility the Olympic Games Rio 2016 enjoyed according to an independent study, we can realize that the Olympic values of respect of excellence and peace, for instance, that they were higher rated for Rio 2016 than for previous Olympic Games.
"So we can say, putting all this together, the Olympic Games Rio 2016 were a really marvelous Games in the marvelous city," Bach added.
Rio was awarded the games in 2009 at a time when Brazil's economy was booming.
But as the country's economic woes kicked in, many Brazilians began to criticize the decision to host the Games when the country was in a recession.
Rio mayor, Eduardo da Costa Paes however believes the city has benefited more from hosting the games.
"I would say there is one Rio before the games and another Rio after the Games. Since we won them we said the Games would serve the city, there is always this issue about legacy, the change for the city, obviously Rio has not become a perfect city because of the Games but it has become a much, much better city inspired by the Games," he explained.

Octonions Transcendentals

      There is no log or sqrt provided for octonions in this implementation,
      and pow is likewise restricted
      to integral powers of the exponent. There are several reasons to this: on the
      one hand, the equivalent of analytic continuation for octonions ("branch
      cuts") remains to be investigated thoroughly (by me, at any rate...),
      and we wish to avoid the nonsense introduced in the standard by exponentiations
      of complexes by complexes (which is well defined, but not in the standard...).
      Talking of nonsense, saying that pow(0,0) is "implementation
      defined" is just plain brain-dead...

      We do, however provide several transcendentals, chief among which is the exponential.
      That it allows for a "closed formula" is a result of the author (the
      existence and definition of the exponential, on the octonions among others,
      on the other hand, is a few centuries old). Basically, any converging power
      series with real coefficients which allows for a closed formula in C can be transposed to O. More transcendentals of this type could
      be added in a further revision upon request. It should be noted that it is
      these functions which force the dependency upon the boost/math/special_functions/sinc.hpp
      and the boost/math/special_functions/sinhc.hpp
      headers.

On my recent trip to Lebanon this winter I was introduced to wines from a fully operational winery in Syria. With the utterly devastating and continuing civil war in Syria over the last 7 years, initially I thought it couldn't be possible that such a thing could exist. On tasting the wines at an artisan market in Beirut I was also really impressed with just how good they were. Against all the odds this winery – Chateau Bargylus, continues to produce delicious white and red wines in Syria, which they are successfully managing to sell around the world. I was fortunate to catch up with Ayman Khoury who works for Chateau Bargylus (who for now is based in Beirut) about the project, the wines and the difficulties faced producing wine in a war zone.
The winery and vineyards are based in the north east of the country, 60 kilometres inland from the coastal city of Latakia. The men behind the project, two brothers Karim and Sandro Saade who whilst growing up in Beirut have family ties back to the Latakia, decided to set up the winery there in 2003. Although there is no history of grape growing in the region in recent times they knew historically that the region was used by the Romans to produce some of their finest wines. This gave them the impetus to investigate further the possibility of planting vines and setting up a winery in the region.
The brothers come from a wine production background with their own Lebanese winery in the Bekaa Valley called Chateau Marsyas. At the time of first investing in the site and planting vines at Chateau Bargylus in 2003, Syria seemed a much more stable place than neighbouring Lebanon who at that time was entering into some political turbulence. By the time of their first harvest in 2006 Lebanon was entering into a proxy war with Israel.
The brothers hired Stephane Derenoncourt, one of the top wine consultants from Bordeaux to help them find the perfect spot for their Syrian vineyards. They found vineyard sites with high levels of flint (silex), limestone and clay ideal for fne wine production. This maritime climate makes the wines from Chateau Bargylus very different in style to their wines from the Bekaa Valley in Lebanon. This is because the Bekaa Valley (protected by two mountain ranges) has a unique micro-climate that is very dry and dominated by red clay soils. Latakia on the other hand has much more humidity and is cooler due to the influence of altitude and the ocean breezes. The higher content of limestone and flint in the soil produces a fresher, less alcoholic wine but with no shortage of ripeness.
Finding the right spot was a long process with plenty of soil test and analysis and in-depth weather reports. With no other winery existing in Syria they had to rely on their own data in regard to optimum location. 12 years on from their first harvest they are very happy with their settling place – at least in terms of what normal winemakers are looking for in regard to location and terroir. The immediate problem setting up a winery in a place where no wine culture exists however is finding people to engage with the project and training up the local inhabitants to produce something they are not familiar with. This accomplishment might have come to be the most beneficial process of the operation in terms of its survival through the civil war.
Since the war broke out the brothers have not been back to the winery (for fear of kidnaping or worse). Despite this they have been managing the winery from afar (based in Beirut) but communicating with the local workers every day as the winery continues to operate despite the war). The winery is and always has been run and operated by locals of the Jebel-Al-Ansariyeh trained up since the winery's first vintage in 2006. Their skills and experience has enabled them to keep the winery in full operation without their owners stepping foot in the winery for over 7 years.
The whole operation of wine production (from grape growing, production to bottling and labelling ) all takes place at the winery in Syria. Workers feedback to the brothers every day on the developments in the vineyard and winery and leading up to harvest grapes are taxied in refrigerated containers from the winery to Beirut for final analysis on when to pick. It seems an extraordinary operation that, for the time being, works. The finished wines are shipped from Syria (in refrigerated tanks) to Port Catalytic in Egypt before being split on to boats with one returning to Lebanon and the other going to a central warehouse in Belgium where the wines are distributed more freely around the world.
The logistics to import French oak barrels, French corks and all the winemaking equipment is a logistical nightmare in itself, but being the only winery in the country means everything has to be imported. Yet it is the 30 full time staff working in Syria that are the real heroes behind the fact that this winery has continued to operate throughout the civil war under the most difficult circumstances. Ayman says they are fortunate in some respect that the west coast of the country has been spared the worst of the fighting and it is not as ravaged as other parts but there have been some close shave throughout the war with fire fight between government and rebel forces breaking out 100 yards from the vineyard in 2015 as well as 2 mortars landing in their Chardonnay vineyards. Fortunately there have been no causalities at the winery as it continues to operate. For the winery to produce such delicious wines against such hardship takes incredible dedication. To be able to provide work and income for the locals where many industries have been forced to close due to the catastrophic effects of the civil war is a remarkable feat against the odds.

Covid Report
Huge tech-ed center coming to Indy + 4 stellar startups
"Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn." – Benjamin Franklin
Today's itinerary:
Inside Indy's massive deal with Infosys
Company automates social media
A new way to track workers' safety data
Turning organic waste into electricity
Name that Flyover City!
LAYOVER IN INDY
Infosys invests $35 million in US education center

IT giant Infosys is making a big investment in Indianapolis. The company is building a $245-million, 141-acre-campus on the site of an old airport terminal. The campus will include a 125,000-square-foot training center and a 250-person residential facility.
The U.S. Education Center will be a state-of-the-art training campus and residential center for Infosys employees. It will prepare the American workforce for the technology jobs of the future.
Infosys, which is based in Bangalore, India, is one of the largest IT firms in the world and ranks as the world's 596th largest public company. The company, which had already moved part of its operations to Indy in 2018, has hired over 500 American workers and plans to hire 3,000 people in Indy by 2023.
Infosys made its fortune in the US by hiring Indian engineers and outsourcing their labor to US firms, but now plans to create 10,000 new American jobs. To woo Infosys, state and city officials are offering as much as $101.8 million in incentives, plus $17.8 million in real estate and infrastructure, which is the largest incentive package in state history.
"We're so proud to call Infosys a key accelerator in our state's thriving tech ecosystem," said Governor Eric. J. Holcomb in a press release. "Infosys' commitment to Indiana and their global clientele is making our capital city and state more connected than ever, and I'm thrilled with the progress we're celebrating today."
STELLAR STARTUPS
A social media startup with a $100B business plan
According to Smart Insights, 45% of the world's population is currently on or has used social media, a 9% increase from last year. But according to Joshua Reid, founder of Cincinnati-based Inphlu, many companies are struggling to keep pace and seize new and expanding market opportunities.
Reid noticed this and came up with the idea to automate social media marketing and created an affordable monthly subscription-based service to jump-start businesses who are struggling getting the proper online exposure.
"Even for business owners that know how to create a Facebook page and keep it up to date, many don't know how to study the data analytics to get the most out of their marketing. And they may not have the time or the resources to dedicate to figuring it out. That's what Inphlu is for," Reid told WCPO. He has named the company Inphlu, as in "influence."
The firm has tapped into local resources such as Northern Kentucky University's Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship as well as Minority Business Accelerator Regional Chamber in Cincinnati, which have provided access to both young workers and needed funding.
Reid launched the company in December and said it's on track to have 4,000 paid subscribers by the end of 2020 with millions of dollars in revenue. But he doesn't plan to stop there. "Inphlu is a billion-dollar business plan," Reid said.
He seems to have the right tools and resources in place to get Inphlu there.
Stenovate: Making life easier for legal transcript pros
Just when you thought life couldn't possibly be better for legal transcript professionals, KC legal tech startup Stenovate is set to go live this month—and founder Lauren Lawrence couldn't be more excited. The project management platform for legal transcriptionists already has 860 wait-listed users who are soon to become paying customers.
The service is designed to simplify life for the legal transcript community—court reporters, transcriptionists, scopists, and proofreaders—by giving them a consolidated platform for managing their work.
A freelance court reporter herself, Lawrence is well acquainted with the challenges of the field. In an interview with the Journal of Court Reporting, she explained her reason for launching the startup:
"Have you ever tried something and then wondered how you ever lived without it? I know that's going to be Stenovate. I'm so inspired by the court reporting community's work ethic. My sole purpose right now is to save us time and headaches. I know how hard we work. I know how bad we need this."
Lawrence gives major props to the Kansas City organizations that have helped her venture reach this point, especially the Fountain Innovation Fund, which recently provided a second investment. The funding enabled her to bring on a partner and gear up for more team growth and product updates.
Wearable tech to help keep your employees safe
Following a successful pilot program in 2019, West Des Moines-based startup MakuSafe is preparing for a major expansion in 2020. Loosely similar to Fitbit in terms of technology, the MakuSafe wearable device, once strapped to a person's arm, allows employers to track overall employee safety, measuring workspace environmental factors like room temperature, humidity levels, air quality, ambient light level, noise, and the like. The device will also record sudden abnormal movements, such as falls, or potentially problematic repetitive motions that could lead to long-term injury.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, there were 2.8 million nonfatal workplace injuries and illnesses reported by private industry employers in the U.S. in 2018. 2018 figures from the Iowa Division of Labor, 42,500 workers in the state suffered on-the-job injuries and another 77 died from workplace accidents.
MakuSafe founder and CEO Gabriel Glynn, the son of a former machinist, was motivated to develop a device capable of automatically detecting workplace hazards to help protect workers while also helping companies save on workers' compensation claims.
With more than $1.5 million in investment this year alone, 2020 is shaping up nicely. Glynn plans to sell approximately 8,000 units to 100 companies, with plans to scale significantly in the following years once initial data is gathering and processed.
Bryon Snethen, a Des Moines-based risk improvement executive with EMC Insurance, was bullish on MakuSafe's prospects, stating, "I think it's going to change the game."
Score another victory for renewable energy in Flyover Country. Enexor Bioenergy, a suburban Nashville company, will begin selling its Bio-200 renewable energy systems this year. The company makes small-scale energy systems that turn organic waste into electricity.
The units resemble a small trailer or storage pod and are ideal for commercial clients, especially those in remote areas. The company plans to hire 75 employees over the next three years. It's raised $7.5 million since its founding in 2015 and is currently working on another round of funding.
The company's modular units convert organic waste into electricity, generating 75 kilowatts of power per hour. In goes cardboard and manure and out comes electricity: win-win. The company expects the product to be popular with hotels and hospitals, with eventual plans to move into African and Asian markets, especially those located on islands. Islands typically have a strong demand for electricity and large amounts of organic waste to dispose of, so it's a perfect fit.
It's ... Name that Flyover city!
Useless information that is strangely fascinating.
This city is home to a sports stadium that holds the Guinness World Record for loudest crown roar.
This city is home to the Dana-Thomas House, one of the best-preserved examples of Frank Lloyd Wright's "Prairie period" dwellings.
The city is the site of the National Civil Rights Museum.

We catch up with Ruby and Madelaine and see where they are after 7 months of sugar-babying – how have they changed? What are the upsides and the issues they've faced? Have their sexual fantasies been fulfilled? Has it all been worth it?
Ruby updates us on what's happening with her, FP and the Brit. With her marriage on the verge of breakdown, she has realised that she is polyamourous and in love with both the Brit and FP. FP is deeply unhappy about this. Can they find a way to make it work?

Are You Getting Enough Potassium On Your Low-Carb Diet?
For optimal weight loss, what you put in your body is just as important as what you keep out. Today we take a look at getting the right amount of potassium on a low-carb diet.
The point is that potassium is a very important mineral that is involved in many of our bodies processes. The question is are you getting enough potassium? According to the 2010 USDA's report on potassium intake of the US population, most of us are getting about half of the potassium that we need each day. The Institute of Medicine recommends 4700mg/day and the average American gets 2640mg/day (1). Many people are losing weight and improving their health through low carbohydrate diets in recent years. One issue here is that many of the best sources of potassium come from higher carbohydrate fruits and vegetables like potatoes, kiwi, and bananas.
Getting enough potassium takes some planning but once your get into a routine of eating certain high potassium staple foods it takes no effort at all. Potassium has a blood pressure lowering effect (2) and high blood pressure is one of the biggest risk factors for negative health outcomes (3). By consuming more potassium, you will likely reduce your blood pressure and put yourself into a position to live a longer and healthier life. So how do you know if your getting enough potassium? www.cronometer.com tracks vitamin and mineral content of foods, and this is a great tool to figure out what micronutrients your diet may be lacking. You don't have to track your food intake every day, maybe once a week plug in your diet and see if you are missing any major micronutrients.
