If you're looking for a Fine Steakhouse or a fancy restaurant, the answer lies inside the iconic Fairmont Hotel on Sheikh Zyed Rd, Dubai at The Exchange Grill. The multiple award-winning restaurant has some classy interiors and is very spacious.
We got a Berry Blast mocktail and a fresh Orange juice to begin with! Both refreshing.
Crabcakes with Mango salsa, puree, and caviar on top. One of the finest that I've tried. The combination was excellent. It's also one of their best sellers which I would definitely recommend!
Artichoke Salad looked like a messy plate but the flavors were spot on. We wiped it clean!
Chef Salad was light and full of flavors. A perfect starter of baby vegetables, crispy bacon, watercress, and truffle.
A 12 oz NY Striploin for the lady with scallops on top. It was well marinated with Chef's secret spices. The potato on the side looks like a scallop but was indeed a potato cube.
Pomme Mousseline / Mashed Potato was one of the best I've tried. We had an option of various topping and we were glad to choose truffle. It was the smoothest and the creamiest.
I ordered myself a 10 oz. Kobe Filet which had a butterfly cut and done medium-well. Tasted best with peppercorn gravy.
It was juicy, tender and probably the best steak I've had. We also had a platter of sauces to try with it. I also enjoyed the mushroom sauce.
Fruits with Mango Sorbet and Kiwi Tart. A must try after a heavy meal.
Deconstructed Cheese Cake was very light and compliments the meal after the heavy meal. The plating was a piece of art that we almost didn't want to destroy. But then we did!
We had an outstanding experience. Big thanks to the server for guiding us with the steak. The service was great. The Exchange Grill will be my top recommendation for a steak house! And of course the Mashed potatoes!

ATO, TPB look to new suppliers to future-proof IT systems
The ATO and the Tax Practitioners Board are currently undergoing a procurement process to modernise their IT systems in the wake of the disastrous ATO system outages in 2016 and 2017.

As part of its Improving ATO IT Systems (IAIS) Program, the ATO has issued a request for tender to find one or more replacement suppliers to replace its current managed network services contract.
The ATO's managed network services cover a wide range, including the end-to-end management, monitoring, operation and improvement of all ATO networks, communication services, and the operation of the ATO's contact centre technology services which supports interactions with taxpayers, other government agencies and internally.
The current contract is due to expire on 30 June 2020 and the ATO is hoping that the change will give it an opportunity to keep up with technological trends and deliver a "reliable and contemporary client experience".
According to tender documents, the search to replace its managed network services supplier comes after the ATO system outages in late 2016 and early 2017 that left tax professionals without service access for lengthy periods, with the House Standing Committee on Tax and Revenue referring to the year as an "annus horribilis".
"A number of ATO stakeholders experienced system unreliability between December 2016 and February 2017 that prompted EST [Enterprise Solutions and Technology] to establish the Improving ATO IT Systems (IAIS) Program," said the tender documents.
"The goal of the IAIS program is to address key priorities in the ATO's technology and business strategies.
"These outages brought into focus the critical reliance the taxation community places on ATO digital services, business service continuity and demand from government on new revenue streams."
The contract will have an initial contract period of three years, with three options for the ATO to extend, each for up to two years in duration. The total contract period will not exceed nine years.
TPB change program
The TPB has also announced a procurement process to replace its ageing Customer Relationship Management (CRM) tool and modernise its IT systems.
"We are seeking a vendor to partner with us to develop and implement a solution that will integrate the evolving business of the TPB," said Craig Woodburn, chief technology officer of the TPB.
"This includes not only replacing our CRM, but also enhancing our register of tax practitioners, legal practice management systems, compliance analytics, reporting and workflow systems."
According to Mr Woodburn, the new system will see the development of a streamlined renewal process for tax practitioners, including a "tap the app" solution that will require minimal input by practitioners who have maintained their obligations and have had minimal changes to their circumstances.
"Apart from significantly simplifying and automating our business processes, we expect this solution will make registration and renewals for tax practitioners far more streamlined, and also provide consumers of tax practitioner services better tools to ensure their agent is registered," Mr Woodburn said.
The TPB plans to engage an IT vendor by mid-January 2020, with new systems being rolled out progressively over the next three years.

Monday is the start of the work week for most people, but today being Carnival Monday many find themselves without a care in the world. Their ever pressing problems are for the moment, as some would say, placed on the "back burner."
As many take the opportunity to 'chip' to the rhythmic pulsations of bottle and spoon musicians and the distinctive sounds of pan from Jouvert bands, Dr Varma Deyalsingh had some tips to keep you safe on the road for Carnival. Just as you would have a first aid kit at home, it is good to walk with some essential items in case of minor injuries, he said.
"While on the road you can encounter a number of problems and it is best to be prepared. In case of minor injuries you can act quickly and responsibly offering assistance to someone in need, be it a relative or stranger," he said.
"Especially around Carnival time, there are a number of minor foot injuries ranging from a damaged toenail to a more serious crush injury where a car tyre rolls over a person's foot. I suggest that masqueraders avoid wearing open-toe footwear. To ease foot pain, try to get those arch support in-soles for the two days. If this pain is ignored, a person can develop a more serious condition called tendonitis where the tendons under the feet are inflamed. It is important to wear proper footwear if you plan to be on your feet for a considerable amount of time, he said.
A ruptured ear drum can happen suddenly and the cause usually stems from being too close to large speakers that blare music. A common phenomenon that takes place around Carnival time; persons can experience ringing in the ears that lasts for a few days. To prevent this, masqueraders should walk with ear plugs to use when too near to speakers, he said.
Torn earlobes: Women wearing very long earrings can be prone to injury and should avoid wearing dangling jewelry.
Many people experience sunburn but this can be prevented with a good sun block with a SPF of 45 or higher. If the sunburn is bad try using a steroid cream like hydrocortisone and apply it to the affected area.
Heat rash: In the case of a heat rash, keep the skin cool by throwing water on the skin throughout the day. You can also apply moist wipes and same steroid cream.
Allergy: Skin allergies are quite common and can come about through contact with certain body paints and materials used to make costumes. It can cause itching and swelling of the skin. In cases of body paint it needs to be removed and an allergy tablet like Piriton may be used with steroid cream.
If someone falls and gets a minor cut or wound, clean with water, Flavine and keep covered.
For sprains remember the word RICE: Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevate.
Fainting is caused by a diminished amount of blood flowing to the brain. Very tight neck pieces can block the flow of blood to the brain, also dehydration can cause fainting.
Put the patient to lie down. Elevate the feet above the head level. Loosen any tight clothing and ensure the person has enough room to breathe. They should revive within five minutes, if they do not it might be something more serious and you should seek medical treatment immediately.
Bee stings and wasp stings should be removed carefully. Avoid trying to squeeze the affected area as this can cause the stinger and venom to go deeper into the skin. Try to brush sideways and remove stinger with tweezers instead.
If the headache is because of the sun or glare use sunglasses; panadol is safe for those types of headaches. If the headaches are due to alcohol excess, panadol can be dangerous in that instance since alcohol puts strain on the liver. The combination of alcohol and panadol can lead to liver damage so in this case ibuprofen would be a better choice. Headaches can also be caused by dehydration, so adequate fluid intake is important. Tight headpieces can also contribute to headaches and need to be taken off intermittently.
Dr Deyalsingh said, "It is good to have a medical bracelet. If you should fall unconscious and need medical treatment this indicator would help doctors know what aliments you suffer with. But there are some instances where persons have their medical bracelet or chain taken from them by thieves so I suggest using a permanent marker and writing somewhere on your chest if you are diabetic or allergic to penicillin and a phone number to contact relatives. This can assist doctors to save time and avoid mistakes.
"I advise all my patients if you're playing mas, that it is a good idea to get a tetanus and hepatitis B shot since both are easily contracted through blood, sweat or punctures," he added.

The Barber songbook
The Hub Review
Thomas Garvey
Samuel Barber (near left, with his lover Gian Carlo Menotti) once described himself as "a living dead composer," and indeed, for most his life his commitment to romantic feeling in the modern age consigned him to the dustbin of critical opinion. But history has a way of upending that dustbin, and Barber's gift for lyrical simplicity, cemented in the popular mind by his Adagio for Strings, has enabled him to outlast his detractors. Today Barber's reputation seems secure as a minor, but wonderful, composer, and he's taken his place in the pantheon of 20th century music that people actually like - next to Copland, Sibelius and others who found personal ways to communicate tonally to their time.
Central to Barber's achievement were his songs, which showcase his strengths (a melodic gift supported by intelligent craft) while sidestepping his great weakness (the lack of large, original architecture). So last weekend's "Barberfest," produced by the Florestan Recital Project as part of the "Voice of America" Festival at Tufts (in conjunction with the Boston Modern Orchestra Project) was a welcome chance to hear his entire catalogue. I attended Friday evening, and was struck by how well said catalogue held up; it's rare to hear a concert devoted entirely to one composer without sensing an eventual underlying repetition, but Barber's works (here both early and late), though certainly all sourced in one voice, steadily surprised in their subtle variety.
It helped that the composer, by all accounts a literary man, had terrific taste in texts. Sometimes I think more than half a song's success (or failure) can be traced to its lyrics, and so I was pleased to find Barber's selections ranged from Joyce to Rilke to Houseman to (yes) Elizabeth Barrett Browning. Actually, one of the Joyces didn't really work - Barber's attempt to set the sardonic romance of Finnegan's Wake fell oddly flat. The other selections from Joyce (cameos, really) were far more successful. But then almost nothing on the program "failed," although my favorites were probably the brief, but hilarious "Dere Two Fella Joe," the po-faced "Monks and Raisins," (Villa) the exquisitely mournful "Of that so sweet imprisonment," (Joyce) the gently admonishing "Thy Love," (Browning) and the casually surreal "A Green Lowland of Pianos" (Milosz!). The central thread in the concert was a deep yet somehow luminous sense of melancholy - Barber struggled all his life with depression - and this registered perhaps with greatest force in the settings of five poems from Rilke, "Mélodies Passagères," which were meant as a tribute to the gay French master of modern art-song, Francis Poulenc and his partner, baritone Pierre Bernac (one, "Un cygne," is sung below by Thomas Hampson).
The evening's singers all acquitted themselves well, although the fulsomeness (and vibrato) of Sarah Pelletier's soprano sometimes seemed to overwhelm the material. Better matched to Barber were the more transparent Shadi Ebrahami, who delighted with The Daisies and October Weather, and Joe Dan Harper (at left, with Anne Kissel), who worked wonders with Of that so sweet imprisonment and Mélodies Passagères. Even Pelletier seemed to find the right level of attack with La Nuit and O Boundless, Boundless Evening. But alas, at that moment the evening had to end; would it had indeed been boundless.


ISLAMABAD: National Accountability Bureau (NAB) Chairman Justice (retd) Javed Iqbal on Tuesday directed strict action against housing societies and cooperative housing societies that failed to hand over plots despite receiving payments.
The directives came during a meeting presided over by the NAB chairman at NAB Lahore.
Iqbal said that the bureau would not only recover the looted amount but also punish the people responsible for it. He added that the NAB's utmost priority was to take the mega corruption cases to their logical conclusion, and that the bureau was firmly determined to make the country corruption free.
During the meeting, the overall performance of NAB Lahore was evaluated, especially the progress in the investigations of mega corruption cases of 56 Public Limited Companies, recovery of amount looted by certain housing societies, and cooperative companies in accordance with the law.
"NAB believes in accountability and taking action against the corrupt without caring about their position or status," said the NAB chief.
He added that NAB had apprehended as many as 476 accused in last 11 months. The bureaus, he added, conducted complaint verification against 216 accused, inquiries against 239, and investigations against 79 and filed corruption references against 340 persons in relevant accountability courts.
NAB also recovered Rs2,410 million from the corrupt and deposited it into the national exchequer, he claimed.
The NAB chairman directed the officers to complete inquiries, investigations and complaint verifications within the prescribed time limit. He warned the officers against non-compliance to the orders.
He lauded the performance of NAB Lahore under the DG NAB and hoped that their performance would improve further.


Fifteen years ago we began an annual winter vacation chartering sailboats in the Caribbean after originally catching the sailing bug on our honeymoon in 1988. Each year we stayed a little longer. John reached an epiphany after considerable financial analysis, complete with spreadsheets and graphs, that could only be understood by engineers. According to the data, there comes a point when it simply makes financial sense to own a sailboat rather than charter. Low and behold, the perfect boat became available well before planned but conveniently around the time the youngest of our two sons graduated high school. So off we go on Echoes, a '96 Catalina 42′ MKII, and her dinghy named Sea Alice, who are slipped on Marco Island, Florida. As any boat owner will tell you, especially one of a 20 year old boat, there are mysterious additional costs of boat ownership. John plugged these numbers back into the analysis and found that to make boat ownership affordable we needed to work less and sail more. So we are semi retired, semi sane, semi competent sailors on a completely awesome adventure and we invite you to follow along with us.

Q: How to know when the new value is assigned to global variable in callback function (JavaScript) Is there any trick to know when the new value is assigned to global variable in callback function in JavaScript.
As I read in here,it is asynchronous , so JavaScript does not wait until the response is received.
I need the new value in my Java code which run JavaScript code in my html page.

A: There is no trick because you can't write code the way you're trying to write it.  You do not want to put the data into a global variable and then try to magically discover when the data is there.  That's just not a good way to write async code.
Instead, you need to put the code that uses the result of the async call in the actual callback itself or call some function from the callback and pass it the data.

You don't show your actual code, but here's an example using jQuery Ajax (just for example purposes, you can do this with any code or library):
$.ajax({
  type: "POST",
  url: "some.php",
  data: { name: "John", location: "Boston" },
  success: function(data) {
      // the results of the ajax call are here in the data argument
      //    to this callback function
      // you can either use the data here (write any code here that needs to use it)
      // or you can call some other function and pass it the data
  }
});

A: The code that needs to access that variable has to be within the callback; else the variable would not have been assigned the value yet.
So you need to trigger the Java code from within the callback.  Tough to provide an answer on how to do that without more information.
var callbackFunction = function(arg, callback) {
    if ('an error') {
        callback(new Error('error text'));
    }
    else {
        // set the global variable
        callback(null, 'result');
    }
};

var callingFunction = function() {
    callbackFunction('arg', function(err, result) {
       if (!err) {
           // Global variable is set
           // Trigger call to Java
       }
    });
};

A: No. There is no direct possibility.
One possible solution is implementing an observer-pattern or using something like backbone, where models trigger events for changes of state.
Another possible solution is, working with futures or promises. Q gives a possible approach.

A: You can define yor global variable as object instanse:
var globalVar = {
                  _val: null,
                  changed: function () {
                    alert(1);
                  },
                  setValue: function(val) {
                    _val = val; this.changed();
                  },
                  getValue: function() {
                    return _val;
                  }
                };

Use setValue and getValue to set and get a value of ur global variable:
globalVar.setValue(45); // will set the value and throw an alert box.
globalVar.getValue(); // will return 45

So u can just init 'changed' prop with ur own function and it will be fired if 'setValue' called

Relationships are at the heart of Holly Graciano Photography. I am constantly inspired by people who are genuinely connected to one another and love with their whole hearts. People who seek out joy in their everyday lives and share it with others. I love getting to know my couples and form lasting relationships with them, so I only take on a limited number of weddings each year so that I can serve each couple well.
I grew up on the coast of Florida, but have called South Carolina home for over a decade. After receiving a master's degree in Media Arts from USC, I began photographing weddings in 2006. I was instantly taken by the raw emotions, honest moments, and sentimentality that weddings are built upon and I want to preserve those for you and generations to come.
I believe deeply in providing artfully crafted, meaningful, and timeless images and will pour my heart into your wedding day to make it the best it can be. I want you to always look at your images and feel the excitement, the love, and the magic of your wedding day.
My work has been featured on the pages of The Knot and Carolina Bride magazines, as well as in wedding blogs Carats & Cake, Smitten, Every Last Detail, The Wedding Row, and DIY Bride.
When I'm not photographing weddings, you can find me hanging with my sweet husband and our two children or planning adventures that include travel, good food, live music, wine, chocolate, and laughter. Lots of laughter.

The UK has pledged to get rid of Russian "dirty money," as well as to tighten sanctions against Russian businesses in the country. But why is that an issue for a country that is, as George Galloway puts it, "dirty money central"?
"The City of London is afloat on dirty money and for the money that's too dirty even for the City of London, we have our own crown dependency tax heavens, which are the toilet for dirty money," the politician-turned-broadcaster Galloway told RT.
Ill-gotten cash from Russia does not damage UK security more than fraudulent gains, brought to the City of London from any other state across the world, according to the former MP. "Dirty money is dirty money wherever it comes from, and thieves are thieves wherever they come from," he said, noting the lack of concern by the British government about money coming from the Middle East.
Galloway sees the craze around Russian investments as a politically motivated. "Cracking down on Russian dirty money when you're allowing other dirty money to buy up at least 20 percent of London, is just hypocrisy," he said.
The commentator highlighted London's change of attitude since the early 1990s, when rich Russians began parking huge amounts of money in Britain.
The former politician added that he is for zero tolerance of emigre crime. "It doesn't damage Britain's security except in as much as it helps to pollute the economy here as the use of stolen money always does," he said.

iamnotshane releases 'Punch Me In The Face'

Indie pop singer-songwriter iamnotshane has released his new single, "Punch Me In The Face."
Indie pop singer-songwriter iamnotshane has released his new single, "Punch Me In The Face." The song is his first release via new label, Snafu Records, and is available to stream everywhere now here + watch the official video below.
An airy slice of indie/electro pop putting iamnotshane's alluring vocal and sticky-sweet melodies front and center, "Punch Me In The Face" is a plea for the real deal, no sugarcoating. iamnotshane describes, "The song is about needing tough love from a real friend, not the fake friends who tell you everything you want to hear. It's a wake up call anthem."
In true iamnotshane form, the video brings the song full-circle in a quirky, ironic, and (this time) rather painful way that you'll just have to see to believe.
"Punch Me In The Face" and iamnotshane's additional 2021 output is an addendum to his early 2021 debut album, One Less Year Alive. The songs also serve as a precursor to a forthcoming European + U.S. headline tour, which will traverse 18 cities over January / February 2022. UK listing below. Tickets on sale now here.
Jan 18 // Manchester, UK @ YES
Jan 19 // London, UK @ Omeara
A born performer, iamnotshane began singing and songwriting at just 8 years old and soon discovered his unmatched love for storytelling. After gaining a following on tumblr posting bedroom recordings, his 2016 debut Sad EP inspired a series of VHS videos he produced – an early hint at his video-making prowess. The EP spawned his first breakout moment in the form of the official video for debut single "Insecure," which he cast, co-directed, choreographed, and edited in its entirety. The video went viral and sparked a rabid cult following of fans who appreciate the clever lyricism, visual eye-candy (see: thoroughly unique dance moves), and glaze of irony that make iamnotshane the phenom he is.
Adding to the creative breadth of iamnotshane's work, he also wrote and published a comic book inspired by the "Insecure" video alongside an accomplished artist in the anime community who is also a fan. He also recently finished a fantasy novel that he is currently editing. Describing his twisted artistic vision, iamnotshane reveals: "I aspire to make the world a happier place by being a combo of Walt Disney, C.S. Lewis and Alfred Hitchcock if he was a pop star."

McDonald's Sales Surpass Pre-Pandemic Levels
McDonald's Corp. said its sales are surpassing pre-pandemic levels across the world as more of its dining rooms reopen and U.S. customers try new chicken offerings.
The burger giant reported sales of $5.9 billion for its quarter ending in June, up 57% from a year earlier when it was hit by Covid-19-related lockdowns. Analysts expected sales of $5.6 billion.
Global same-store sales in the second-quarter were 7% higher than in the same period of 2019, with the U.S. business leading the growth, McDonald's said Wednesday.
The company said that menu price increases of roughly 6% over the past year, larger to-go orders and sales of its new crispy chicken sandwiches helped boost U.S. sales. Its latest celebrity-endorsed meal, this one tied to Korean pop group BTS, also contributed to sales, it said.
McDonald's last year was hit by Covid-19-related closures across the world, particularly in Europe where lockdowns have remained in place for longer than in the U.S. The company said Wednesday that it experienced significantly fewer closures and restrictions during its latest quarter.

• Determining the activities that need to be completed to ensure that critical operations and service delivery are protected against cybersecurity risks.
• Prioritizing weaknesses, so the impact of cybersecurity investments can be measured and maximized.
• Allowing an organization to communicate it's cybersecurity posture to customers and interested parties.
• Compliance with HIPAA requirements by demonstrating commitments to due care and due diligence for the protection of PHI.
• Potential limitations in cybersecurity insurance premiums and breach liability.
1. Prioritize and scope – Determine where your organization's sensitive assets (PHI) reside and the risks to that information. Build an inventory of assets and classify them by sensitivity. Sources for identifying risks are regulatory guidance, industry publications and real-life breaches faced by similar companies.
2. Orient – Determine what cybersecurity and risk management practices are in place currently, what practices should be implemented, if not currently, and identify the critical systems where resources should be focused.
3. Create a target profile – Select a HITRUST control overlay and Target Tier for the organization. Target Implementation Tiers identify the specific controls and maturity of those controls needed to achieve the desired level.
4. Conduct a cybersecurity risk assessment – This is an evaluation of the organization's current controls and evaluation of the cybersecurity risks that are outside of desired tolerances based on the target profile. Some organizations may already have similar assessments in place through regular business processes such as Internal Audit Risk Analysis.
5. Create a current profile – This is a comparison of the Risk Assessment performed in Step 4 against the target profile performed in Step 3. The HITRUST framework can provide your organization's current profile in scorecard format, to identify the status and maturity of currently implemented controls.
6. Conduct Gap Analysis – A gap exists when the current control profile falls short of the control profile in the target profile. HITRUST provides several methods to prioritize the controls gaps an organization may have so resources can be allocated to areas with the strongest impact. In the first method, Risk, Likelihood and Impact ratings are calculated for each gap to give numeric values of the gap's overall risk level. In the second method, priority codes are given to controls, signifying which control gaps should be closed first to allow other controls to build upon them.
7. Implement an Action Plan - Execute a plan to track all projects related to closing identified gaps and monitor their status against the desired target profile. Repeat the steps.
Organizations wishing to reap the benefits of the HITRUST (RMF) can complete these steps themselves (self-assessment) or engage a HITRUST Assessor to provide experienced guidance and assurance. Only HITRUST Assessors can provide an organization with a HITRUST validated certification. In addition to providing certification, HITRUST Assessors can provide a HITRUST standard report or SOC2 Plus report with HITRUST that can be provided to customers and interested parties who inquire about an organization's security and privacy practices.
If your organization already has the HITRUST RMF implemented and is interested in the NIST Csf, HITRUST has published control mappings that can be used to demonstrate compliance based on activities already in place. Alternatively, the mappings can be used by organizations with the NIST CsF in place to gain HITRUST certification. The HITRUST guide to implementing the NIST CsF and the control mappings can be found here.
Schneider Downs can assist healthcare organizations and business associates wishing to incorporate HITRUST and the NIST CsF into their business activities and report on those activities via SOC2 Plus with HITRUST, please contact us for more information.

September 2020 Monthly Brief
May 2019 VIP: Schiff Hardin LLP
Each month, The Veterans Consortium recognizes a "VIP" – Volunteer Inspiring Pro Bono. TVC values all our volunteers and wish to recognize those who inspire others.
TVC National Volunteer CorpsSM
Schiff Hardin LLP attorneys Tracy Adamovich and Mir Ali each point to a 2017 Veterans Day panel as the origin of a renewed firm-wide commitment to assist United States veterans. Hosted in their Chicago office, and video streamed to its six other stateside offices, the panel discussion was one of the best attended events at the firm.
It came about while making plans to invite a veteran to speak at the firm to commemorate the holiday. Ali recalls one of the attorneys in that meeting wondering aloud, "Why would we bring in an outside vet when we have our own attorneys who are veterans with incredible military experiences to share? That would be most captivating to us."
So Adamovich was invited to fly from the New York office to join two other Schiff Hardin Army veterans that would take part in the panel, Ali and Sam Bonnette.
"It was such a great thing," Adamovich says of the panel discussion. "I was so appreciative to share my story with the whole firm."
Since then, the firm has redoubled its commitment to serving veterans, expanding on a veterans inclusion network that began in the fall of 2011. Today, the MASH program (Military Appreciation at Schiff Hardin) has taken on three pro bono cases for The Veterans Consortium, helping veterans through the legal process to get the benefits they deserve. The firm has notched three early victories, with the final disposition of the cases still to come. Their efforts are picking up steam and cultivating interest within the firm, according to Ali.
For their commitment and dedication in creating a firmwide program devoted to serving our military veterans, the firm of Schiff Hardin has been selected as The Veterans Consortium's Volunteer Inspiring Pro Bono for May 2019.
"The depth of the commitment Schiff Hardin has made to serve our veterans is incalculable," says Courtney Smith, TVC's Director of Outreach and Education. "They have made outstanding progress with the three cases they have taken on and their plan is to engage many more attorneys in the aid of our veteran service men and women. We could not be more thrilled to be partnering with Schiff Hardin in this venture."
For Adamovich, 40, a native of Garden City, New York, becoming a lawyer "was always the end game." Growing up, she talked endlessly about cases with her step-father, a lawyer, who influenced her greatly with respect to the law. She was also impressed with the nearby United States Military Academy at West Point, which she attended from 1997 to 2001. She found her years at the academy, "challenging, yet rewarding," and was excited for an opportunity to serve her country.
Her five years of military service included an assignment in Bamberg, Germany as a personnel officer supporting the first infantry division and a tour logging casualties in Tikrit, Iraq. Then it was time for Adamovich to pursue her next dream. She attended law school at St. John's University School of Law and spent her first years in New York with Sullivan & Cromwell, an international law firm. Eager to work in the area of wills and estates, Adamovich took a job as a financial advisor, which positioned her to transition to estate and trust law. Adamovich says her role as a casualty operations officer really shaped the type of law she wanted to practice. She's thrilled that Schiff Hardin allows her to mix her two worlds.
"From the top down, the firm is very supportive of our veterans work," says Adamovich who enjoys skiing, traveling and reading in her free time.
The son of immigrants, Mir Ali, 40, grew up in Peoria, Illinois, hearing stories about his parents' journey to become American citizens. He witnessed their work ethic and how they were able to provide for him with their newly earned opportunities and rights. A desire to give back to his country was instilled in Ali from a very young age. He joined ROTC at the University of Illinois and began a three year active duty commitment in 2000. While his unit didn't deploy immediately following the 9/11 terrorist attacks against the United States, he made the decision to voluntarily extend his Army career. He tried out for the Army Special Forces, and after two years of highly intense training, he was the captain of a 12-person team of Green Berets.
While a captain is normally allowed to stay on a Special Forces team for up to two years, Ali was fortunate to command his team for three years, which included two tours in Afghanistan between 2005 and 2007. After his second combat tour, Ali was offered a staff position to continue his military career, but he decided to go to law school instead.
"I absolutely loved being on the ground with my team and our local partners," Ali says. "But, I also always had an interest in law and I wanted to go to law school."
After attending the University of Michigan Law School, Ali deferred a job offer from Schiff Hardin for one year to clerk for Chief Judge Gerald Rosen, U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan. He is married to his childhood sweetheart and together they are raising three children. In his free time, Ali loves hiking and everything outdoors.

Box Dimensions (LxWxH) 7.0 x 4.5 x 1.3"
Multi-Card Read P8 (Black) is rated 4.7 out of 5 by 48.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Nate M from Small, fast, and aesthetically pleasing I've only used the reader for SD cards so far, but it's quick to connect and be recognized, and the transfer speeds are fast. I especially like the functional design of the reader. It is possible to plug in all kinds of cards simultaneously, including micro versions without an adapter, and the thing is very small and thin, fitting perfectly in my camera bag. It has a shiny surface and comes with some protective plastic stuck to it, which is nice to keep it scratch free. The opposite side is more matte and has four little rubber feet, which seem very solid. It uses a standard mini-USB port to connect, which matches that of my camera, so I don't have to carry any extra cords. The only things I'd think could be improved would be to make it USB3, but present cards don't get too close to the USB2 data rate cap anyway.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Chris from a MUST buy i had purchased an aluratek usb card reader months ago and was never too happy with it. Then a few weeks ago i was purchasing my Transcend 32gig SDHC card and this was under the recommended accessories. When i saw how much better it looked, plus all the extra ports, for HALF the price of my terrible aluratek one, i couldnt resist. now this is permanently sitting next to my macbookpro, awaiting my use. which, is always a pleasant exeperience for me. you will not regret purchasing this! great performance at a great price! go transcend!
Rated 4 out of 5 by wangshiyi from nice little card reader I like this card reader although I've only used it a couple of times. It's small and portable. The only reason I'm giving it four stars is because the white USB cable. I don't get it; is this an Apple product?! Why pair a white cable with a black device? I guess I'm a little picky about aesthetics.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Lawrence from Pretty Decent card reader. Use to read CF and SD cards into computers without dedicated card-readers built-in. Faster than reading from the camera, and less fussy. Obviously limited to USB2 speeds, which some built-in readers are not. What's often not obvious in the catalog is the depth (or lack therof) of slots on readers - some are very shallow, and can lead to bent pins. This one is pretty decent - and a deep slot means the pins are lined up well by the time they connect. Mostly an issue for CF cards. Included recovery software I had not even noticed (or wasn't mentioned, I don't recall) was actually able to recover a few images we figured were all lost (many others were lost, but any is better than none) when a CF card died partway through photographing an event. The fact that the cable is a Mini-USB plug-in means you can use whatever length cable you like, and the reader at least won't fail due to the cable going bad. Can't really comment on long-term reliability yet, but it appears to be of decent build quality.
Rated 5 out of 5 by MightyTiki from Awesome Card Reader I did a lot of research for card readers and found a lot of issues with the latest Macbook's (summer 2010 model) using my 32GB 600X Transcend CF cards. If you have one, buy it, you won't regret it.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Get cheap reader Perfect for reading cards. The 5d is pretty slow so this is darn fast. Although not USB 3, still does the job really well. Cable is a little long. I prefer a short cable so it is easier to manage.
Rated 4 out of 5 by vhart from Quality limited The device was tested using: - a netbook (hereinafter referred to as N-7) with the system W7; - a home computer (hereinafter referred to as C-XP) with the system WXP SP3. Tests were performed with some SDHC flashcards of 8, 16 and 32 GB as well as with some microSD flashcards of 2 and 8 GB. No problem arises with N-7: the device was recognized, driver installed automatically, card got its drive letter. At C-XP, the device was NOT recognized, driver NOT installed automatically, cards were NOT mounted. After downloading and installing the driver from Transcend website (nothing was said anywhere about the need for it) the device began to work fast enough (tested as USB device). The strange fact is that it occupies TWO disc letters when the card is inserted, the first of them corresponds to no data carrier.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Dee from Awesome! Very usefull! Great on the go, very small but durable. Awesome buy at a reasonable price.
I have this product but lost the installation disk. Is there a free download for this?
Yes, you will be able to download the software that's included with the disc for free. To do this, please visit Transcend's webpage and this will all be under their support section.
Is this both Mac & Windows compatible? does it connect using USB?
The Transcend Multi-Card Read P8 is compatible with Mac, Windows and Linux platforms, and connects via USB 2.0.
Does it come with a USB cord?
yes, the computer end has USB @ connector on it.
Yes it does. It is a very good card reader and I have never regretted buying it.

Why Snap's Latest Acquisition Is Important
Buying Placed is a step towards correcting a recent fallout for the company
Sean Burch | June 6, 2017 @ 1:00 PM	Last Updated: June 6, 2017 @ 1:08 PM
Snap Inc. — the parent company of Snapchat, the popular disappearing messaging app — took a meaningful step towards correcting the fallout from its recent quarterly report on Monday when it acquired Placed, a company that leverages location-based technology to measure ad effectiveness.
To refresh your memory: Snap reported the dreaded combo of uninspiring user growth and diminishing ARPU (average revenue per user) in its first quarter since going public. Making matters worse, the company had next to nothing to say regarding its ad partnerships. With daily active users only up 5 percent from the previous quarter, and an inability to monetize its existing audience, investors were left scrambling to find where Snap would generate dollars.
That's where Placed comes in. The Seattle-based company specializes in gauging how effectively ads translate into foot traffic for its customers. Its expertise in publishing — its partners include Hearst, Yahoo!, and Conde Nast — will lend itself well to Snapchat's editorial partners.

Coupled with Snap's launch of its similar "Snap to Store" tool, which allows its advertisers to measure if sponsored geofilters are leading to in-store visits, the objective is clear: Snap is doubling down on what it can offer its ad partners.
Considering the "retail meltdown" companies are grappling with, this is a true value add Snap is offering its customers.
Facebook's mobile strategy is relevant when looking at Snap's longterm prospects: it was so inept leading up to its 2012 IPO, it had to warn investors in an SEC filing. Mark Zuckerberg quickly changed course, realizing mobile was a path towards making "a lot more money." Five years later, online advertising is dominated by two companies: Facebook and Google.
The parallels between post-IPO Facebook and Snap are evident. On its quarterly conference call, Evan Spiegel's ad strategy couldn't have been more lackluster, and reports Snap had started to offer discounted rates to lure disenchanted advertisers looked desperate. But Snap seems to have at least acknowledged the issue at hand. That's half the battle. While Placed isn't a panacea for all of its concerns, it is an auspicious sign for investors.

Snap has a great product, but that doesn't guarantee a viable business (read: Twitter). Finding a way to better monetize its users — while looking to bring in more with its rollout of original content and focus on Android growth — is a critical development. It's latest acquisition is a move in this direction.
7 Painful Tech Debacles Since Y2K (Photos)
Some amazing tech innovations have come along since the turn of the millennium. But there have also seen some memorable train wrecks. Take a walk with TheWrap down failed-tech memory lane:
Sega Dreamcast was supposed to be the top-of-the-line gaming console heading into the 2000s. Instead, it quickly fizzled out thanks to lackluster sales. Sega discontinued the product less than two years after its launch in North America. Oof.
Microsoft's answer to the iPod didn't stand a chance. Coming along five years after Apple's revolutionary MP3 player, it was severely behind the eight ball. The Zune looked like a wannabe-iPod, and didn't have the hip commercials or U2 partnerships to go along with it. Microsoft put the Zune out of its misery in 2011.
HD DVD was supposed to go head-to-head with Blu-Ray; instead it was knocked out in swift fashion. Toshiba had the most riding on the technology, but abandoned it -- along with the rest of the industry -- in 2008.
It's hard to call a company that was sold for nearly $600 million a disaster. But when you consider it had the first-mover advantage on Facebook -- which now has a market cap of $440 billion -- it's not a good look. More than 75 million people used Myspace at its peak in 2008, but it's current visitors pales in comparison to its younger social media sibling.
Google has boasted a myriad of excellent products -- YouTube, Gmail, and Google Earth, to name a few. Google Glass wasn't one of them. The only thing worse than the $1,500 price tag was the way the smart glasses looked. Google dropped them in 2015, only two years after rolling them out.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 7 was one of the best phones on the market, until it started catching on fire. Nearly 100 "battery episodes" forced Samsung to recall 2.5 million devices in 2016. The FAA wouldn't even let you get on a plane with one after the recall.
Maybe this whole tech-glasses fad isn't meant to be. Snap's Spectacles were initially met with acclaim, with customers waiting in line for hours from LA to New York to grab a pair. But the excitement seemed to quickly fizzle out, though, with Snap reporting a meager $8 million in sales for its first quarter following its IPO. That's only about one in every 2,600 Snapchat users buying a pair.

Hangover remedies can help restore feelings of vitality after consuming too much alcohol. Since both the short and the long-term affects from the use of alcohol can be so devastating, it is always best to avoid it's over consumption. However, when recovery is needed, natural cures work best. Having a general understanding of what causes a hangover and its overt symptoms is the best place to start when discussing a natural cure for hangovers.
A hangover is a physiological problem that is usually delayed, but occurs after drinking quite a bit of alcohol. Dealing with a hangover can be quite miserable and it can cause a variety of uncomfortable symptoms to occur.
Knowing what causes a hangover can help in avoiding one altogether. In many cases, a lack of sleep, along with heavy alcohol consumption are the main culprits. Most often drinking too much or drinking a lot of alcohol in a short period of time causes it. Other causes include drinking on an empty stomach and dehydration.
Rehydration – Rehydrating the body with fresh water and natural juices is important. Orange juice is especially good since it replenishes vitamin C.
Coffee – Although drinking several cups of coffee is often a cure for hangovers and can help a person feel more alert, this should be used sparingly, as the caffeine in coffee can also contribute to feelings of nervousness, shakiness and can inhibit sleep, as well as cause further dehydration.
Probiotics – Taking probiotics, such as eating yogurt or taking them in supplement form, helps reduce the balance of flora within the stomach.
Honey – Widely touted as an effective cure for hangovers, honey can used by taking a couple of teaspoonfuls every 20 minutes or so to help reduce the severity of the hangover.
Exercising – Though it is often the last thing that a hung over person feels like doing, one of the best hangover remedies is physical exercise. This helps to get the blood circulating, carries needed oxygen to the brain and helps to rid the body of toxins, which contribute to a hangover.
Natural cures and home remedies can work wonders on restoring one's good health. This is particularly true for the hangover remedies noted here. However, the best way to assure good health is to practice a lifestyle that mostly avoids the over consumption of potentially harmful substances, such as alcohol, synthetic drugs and processed foods.
Focusing on a healthy natural diet, getting the proper amounts of rest and exercise, as well as engaging in spiritual practices that help in managing stress, can go a long way in keeping the body strong and resilient. Those who target holistic health lifestyles are less likely to develop illnesses and are in a better position to ward off conditions, such as a hangover, dehydration or other physical symptoms known to cause high levels of discomfort.
