We helped create
A well-earned gold.
A noted place-maker and community-builder, Mack-Cali is leading the transformation of New Jersey's Gold Coast with a winning portfolio of iconic residential and commercial destinations. Driven to build places of positive impact, they take an integrated, holistic approach to every project, incorporating and reinvesting in local voices, interests and spaces for results that create new ways of belonging, engender neighborhood pride and enrich the lives of the community.
Continuing a long-standing collaborative partnership, Mack-Cali engaged REA to help shape a brand story, strategy and brand identity aligned with their mission to capture an ever-increasing share of the New Jersey waterfront, while celebrating their ongoing pursuit of excellence.
Pivoting around the notion of "going for gold", the new identity is vibrant and enthusiastic. Alluding both to the Gold Coast and exceptional achievement, a warm, rich palette pops with gold, while upbeat copy employs a can-do language. The brand logo, though retaining its historical wordmark, has been simplified and refined to feel clean and contemporary.
A central element of the rebrand is a responsive website that serves as Mack-Cali's calling card. Light, open and user-friendly, the site combines both lifestyle and aspirational moments with a clean, rational design for easy browsing of the firm's extensive portfolio and new strategic plan.
Subversively bold and impactful, a print outreach campaign across key trade magazines and newspapers drew attention to the new positioning, while also supporting and enhancing it. A suite of additional internal and external materials, from video presentations to market brochures to sell sheets, extends and reinforces the new identity, ensuring that when it comes to asserting its influence in the market, Mack-Cali is golden.
The new brand and color palette is unapologetically norm-breaking in a saturated market of corporate convention.

Better Health's Red Apple Run Invites Residents to Get Running in the Fight Against Diabetes
Diabetes, often referred to as "sugar" in the South, is a serious condition that affects nearly 26 million children and adults in the United States. In Cumberland County, one agency that takes diabetes seriously is Better Health of Cumberland County. In an effort to raise awareness of the potentially deadly disease, Better Health is sponsoring the 2nd Annual Red Apple Run for Diabetes on Nov. 22.
The run, which begins at the Medical Arts Building, commemorates American Diabetes Month, which takes place throughout the month of November. The 10K run starts at 8:15 a.m.; the 5K run/walk starts at 8:30 a.m.; and the 1-Mile Fun Run/Walk starts at 9:15 a.m.
"We want to welcome people and remind them that they can walk and do not have to run," said Judge Laura Devan, board president of Better Health and co-chair of the run. "We hope to have a big turnout to bring attention to our mission at Better Health."
The event includes a 5K run/walk, a 1-mile fun run/walk, and a 10K run for elite runners. The categories for the prizes are first place with a stroller, first place running with a dog, an award for the largest team that participates together, super hero for fitness and more. Trophies for the top three male and female finishers are awarded for the 5K and 10K. Medals are given to the top three finishers in each age group for the 5K and 10K. Teams are encouraged to walk or run in honor or memory of a loved one with diabetes.
"This is a family fun event and many runners love to run with their children, strollers and dogs," said Devan.
Better Health of Cumberland County is a nonprofit, charitable organization that relies upon local foundations, community members and business donors for funding. The organization provides diabetes awareness, education and self-management programs, childhood obesity prevention and education, loans of medical equipment and financial assistance for emergency medical needs.
There will be a fitness fair with health conscious vendors such as Breathing Space Yoga, fitness instructors and more at the starting line for runners to peruse as they are waiting for the race to begin.
"Our certified race routes are new this year. This is the second year for the 5K and the first year for the 10K," said Judy Klinck, executive director of Better Health. "We welcome sponsors and in order for their names to appear on the T-shirts and various literature we will need the donation by Nov. 7."
Fees for the 5K and 10K are $15 for ages 10 and under and $25 for ages 11 and over if you are registered by Nov. 12. After November 12 the fee is $30 for all ages. The fun run registration fee is $10. Registration is available online at www.Active.com and www.FSSeries.com or you can download the form at www.BetterHealthcc.org.
Individuals registered by Nov. 12 are guaranteed a T-shirt. The Medical Arts Building is located at 101 Robeson Street.
For more information about the race or Better Health programs, call 483-7534.

However cruel or depraved a man may be, his heart clings to some person or thing, his nature impels him to love some object. If he does not love God above all, he needs must love a creature above all.
1. The love of the world consists in loving, above all, money, or the gratification of one's appetite, or earthly honors or any thing else in the world, instead of giving the first place to God.
The love of creatures is not in itself sinful, only when the creature is more loved than the Creator. All who love creatures more than God are idolaters, because they give to creatures the honor due to God. One loves money, like Judas; another eating and drinking, like Dives; and many others whose god is their belly; a third sacrifices all to ambition, like Absalom; others have an inordinate love of amusements, gambling and the like. All these resemble the Jews who danced round the golden calf at the foot of Mount Sinai. The maxim of the man of the world is: "Let us eat and drink, for to morrow we die." The love of the world is worse than high treason; it makes a man a traitor to the King of kings.
2. Through love of the world we incur the loss of sanctifying grace, and eternal felicity.
The lover of the world does not possess sanctifying grace. As the dove does not rest upon anything that is unclean or corrupt, so the Holy Spirit does not dwell in the soul of the carnally-minded and evil (St. Ambrose). The Holy of holies cannot dwell in the soul that is stained with sin. "If thy heart be full of vinegar, how can it be filled with honey? It must first be emptied, and undergo a toil some process of cleansing," says St. Augustine. He who is destitute of the presence of the Holy Spirit, that is, of sanctifying grace (the wedding-garment), shall be cast into exterior darkness (Matt. xxii. 12). Hence Christ threatens the votary of the world with eternal damnation: "He that loveth his life (who endeavors to get out of it all possible enjoyment) shall lose it" (John xii. 25). Again, "Woe to you that are filled, for you shall hunger. Woe to you that now laugh, for you shall mourn and weep" (Luke vi. 25). No more than a ship lying fast at anchor can sail into harbor, can a man who loves the world reach the haven of eternal felicity. "Which dost thou prefer?" asks St. Augustine, "to love the world and go to perdition, or to love Christ and enter into life everlasting?" He is a fool who for the sake of this passing world plays away eternal life.
3. The love of the world blinds the soul of man, and leads him away from God.
The love of the world blinds the soul of man. When earthly things intervene between God and the soul, the soul becomes dark, just as does the moon when the earth is between it and the sun. As Tobias the elder was blinded by the dung of a swallow, so earthly cares destroy the sight of the soul. Hence worldlings cannot comprehend the teaching of the Gospel; it is foolishness to them (1 Cor. ii. 14). As the sun's rays cannot penetrate muddy water, so the lover of the world cannot be enlightened by the Holy Spirit. The earth is like a limed twig; the bird that rests upon it cannot soar upwards. The cares of this world stifle the word of God in the heart of man, as thorns choke the sprouting seed. The votaries of the world resemble the men in the Gospel who were invited to the heavenly banquet, but who did not go because of their wife, their farm, their oxen (Luke xiv. 16).
4. The love of the world destroys interior peace, and makes men fear death greatly.
The worldling is a stranger to interior peace. It has been well said: A man must choose between indulgence of the senses and tranquillity of soul. The two are not compatible. One might as well try to fill a vessel that has holes in it, as to satisfy the heart that only strives after the pleasures of time and sense. And since the votaries of the world can never attain interior peace, they want a constant change of amusement, as one who cannot sleep turns restlessly from side to side in the hope of finding rest. Christ alone can give us true content. He said to His apostles: "Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you; not as the world giveth do I give unto you" (John xiv. 27). St. Augustine exclaims: "Our heart has no rest until it rest in Thee, O Lord!" The lover of the world fears death so much, because he will be parted from his idol, and because death will put an end to the happiness he makes it his object to attain. He has, besides, an inward presentiment of what will follow after death. On account of this all who love the world are filled with apprehension and even despair in the hour of death. The prisoner fears nothing so much as the summons to appear before the judge; and the sinner, though he is never free from alarm, dreads the moment above all when his soul will leave the body and enter the presence of her divine Judge (St. John Chrysostom). The fish that is caught on the hook scarcely feels pain until it is drawn out of the water; so those who are entangled in the meshes of the world first feel real anguish when their last hour comes. Think, O worldling, if the joys which the devil offers you are thus mixed with bitterness, what will the torments be which he prepares for you hereafter?
5. The love of the world gives rise to hatred of God and of His servants.
6. The love of the world ceases at death.
This article, IV. THE LOVE OF THE WORLD IS OPPOSED TO THE LOVE OF GOD is a post from The Bellarmine Forum.


One of the things that can happen to soap is soda ash. This is a white powdery looking substance that appears on the top of you soap. There are a number of theories of why this happens. And a number of things that are suggested to stop it – cover your soap, spray it with alcohol several times during the first few hours, use beeswax in your recipe are a few. There are draw backs to each of these. So if you make more than a few batches of soap, you are bound to have soda ash at some point.
What is soda ash and does it matter? Soda ash is sodium carbonate that formed when sodium hydroxide (lye) in the soap contacted carbon dioxide in the air. It is completely harmless. In some cases it adds character and interest to the soap. Other times it is unacceptable.
This is an example where soda ash added interest to the top. This is Castile Soap that is slightly yellow from the olive oil and the ash is a nice white.
3. Rinse under cool running water.
The best results were obtained by the rinsing the soap under running water followed by steaming it. Perhaps if the ash was not so thick the other methods would have worked better. This soap cleaned up nicely but not without a lot of effort. One important point – be sure you wear gloves when handling your soap avoid finger prints. Also have a rack to drain and dry the soap ready.
In conclusion, the most difficult method proved the most effective and the easiest way (spraying with alcohol) the least effective. No surprise there.


Telespazio, a subsidiary of Leonardo - by means of Spaceopal, a joint venture with DLR GfR of the German Space Agency - was awarded a contract with a value of up to 1.5 billion euro to manage Galileo, the European satellite navigation system, which is officially starting its initial services today. Thales Alenia Space, a joint venture between Thales and Leonardo, has signed contracts for 180 million euro.
The 10-year contract signed by Spaceopal as "Galileo System Operator" covers the operation and maintenance of the Galileo system and its committed performance level: in particular, the operations and control of the system, the logistics and maintenance of the systems and infrastructure as well as the user support services. The "Piero Fanti" Space Centre of Telespazio in Fucino (Italy) will hold a key role in carrying out these activities. Telespazio is also engaged in providing a wide range of applications based on Galileo and EGNOS (European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service) in sectors such as civil aviation, rail transport, dangerous goods management and unmanned aircrafts control.
"We are proud to contribute with our technology and skills to the Galileo satellite system, which will deliver quality services to citizens around the world and will be a key driver of economic growth and competitiveness", said Mauro Moretti, CEO and General Manager of Leonardo. "Following the ESA's Ministerial Council, which confirmed the funding of the space programs in which Leonardo is a key industrial partner, first and foremost ExoMars 2020, contracts signed today are a further acknowledgement of the leading role of the company in the European space sector".
The contracts signed by Thales Alenia Space relate to the supply of engineering activities to support the European Space Agency (ESA) and GSA (European GNSS Agency) in infrastructure development and Galileo services from 2017 to 2022.
Leonardo has always been a key industrial partner of the Galileo program, for which it also provides the attitude sensors to control the position of the satellites and the hydrogen atomic clocks to mark the time, together with a receiver for the PRS service, designed for government entities and critical infrastructures with special security requirements.

Coffee Brake: Halloween Costume Time
DailyTurismo Uncategorized Coffee Brake, Halloween, Horrorod 3
As the festival of women dressed like skanks known as Halloween approaches, it is a time to consider appropriate costumes for grown men…particularly grown men who like cars. So, pick your favorite automotive hero (dead or alive) and build yourself a costume. In classic DT fashion, the cheaper the better, and who doesn't love an obscure reference to the engineer who invented the side view mirror?
South African born Tesla Motors CEO Elon "Iron Man" Musk makes an easy costume. You just need a fitted black t-shirt with a Iron Man style heart/power core that has a Tesla emblem in the middle. You could just get it digitally printed on the shirt, but bonus points if you put blue LEDs inside the shirt.
Swiss born Maximum Bob Lutz makes another great and simple car related costume; just wear some classic 60s style business wear, some big sunglasses and a cigar. Be obnoxious. Done.
If you really need to pull off an awesome costume, you might want to consider sourcing your idea from a movie, like Jack Lemmon's iconic Professor Fate in The Great Race. You'll need a top hat, curled mustache, long coat and gloves. Scream MAAAAAAXX, press the button!! at random times.
Have a suggestion? Comments below.
5k: Batteries Not Included: 1979 Marathon C-360 Hybrid Tin Death Trap 3k: When Life Gives You Lemons…Engine Swap: 1981 Chevrolet Citation X-11 with V8
Here is an easy one: a red Ferrari 308 and a big bushy mustache

Don't forget the short Op cords and NAVY baseball cap.

David Fischer, CEO of Landmark Capital joins TD Ameritrade, now as a regular contributor. Ben Lichtenstein, a well-known analyst, trader, and host of TD Ameritrade FUTURES asks David about his thoughts on Gold and it's trading range within this interview. Reiterating what David has previously said on TD Ameritrade, he called for Gold and Silver to pull back in their values, as there is a recent flight toward the Dollar. David's comments obviously go against most of the Precious Metals Industry, which touts gold always going up no matter the environment. David comments about Tariffs drawing down the market. Additionally, David speaks about how Tariffs have even affected the Dow, breaking through a major support level of the 200-day moving average. David also touches just briefly on a significant fact of what the Federal Reserve is doing this month and the global supply of money. One might think they see where the trend is headed, but David warns that the investor should not be lulled to sleep. This will all change, and some analysts like Bank of America/Merrill Lynch says they expect $1400 Gold by the end of the year. David also comments on Silver and Copper, yet maintaining that Gold is the key to the metal markets moving up.
Tariffs affecting the DOW could have a large negative impact.

Q: databinding to data still being processed on another thread in wpf Just wondered what that best approach is for this scenario - trying to databind to a collection which is being populated in another background thread.
My background thread is adding items to the collection in a processing loop which may run for several minutes.  Every now and then it raises an event to the UI and passes a reference to the data from the collection, for the UI to visualize, (so the user can start to interact with what they have) and carries on processing.
Trouble is the UI starts to render the visualisation (which is quite complex itself), which involves a foreach() loop over the collection of data, and understandably that loop craps itself if my background thread changes the data  in the collection during the enumeration.
So my brainstorming has gone like this:

*

*pause the background thread; but I really don't want to pause

*take a duplicate snapshot copy of all, or some the data in each event, and databind to the snapshot.  Doubles my memory usage but would probably work

*implement some kind of lock{} on the syncroot or whatever of the collection so while the UI is updating the background process has to wait.  Not confident about that working anyway

*fire the event all the time and just pass one bit of data at a time, which has the same result as #2 but with more overhead..

cheers
  ewart.

A: The easiest way to fix your problem is by changing the foreach loop to a for loop that loops from 0 to the number of items in your collection before you start to loop.
instead of:
    var coll = new List<string>();
    foreach (string item in coll)
    {
        //do your stuff
    }

use:
    var coll = new List<string>();
    int length = coll.Count - 1;
    for (int i = 0; i < length; i++)
    {

    }

OR
I don't know how complex your UI is but with WPF you can almost always change the code to advanced databinding bound to an ObservableCollection. The Observable collection triggers an update of the binding when an item is added or removed.
But to provide a solution for that requires a lot of information on how your UI is build.

Holistic drugs is a type of healing that considers the whole person – body, thoughts, spirit, and emotions – in the quest for optimum well being and wellness. Integrative Medicine combines conventional western medicine with complementary and various therapies As we encourage the physique's innate tendency for therapeutic, we endeavor to increase the conventional definition of therapeutic to incorporate psychological, emotional and spiritual features.
Today, there are a variety of natural therapeutic colleges that provide primary holistic workshops and seminars to most of the people; which can embody newbie classes in self-therapeutic massage, house natural cures, holistic diet (together with vitamins and dietary supplements), iridology, reflexology, and different pure well being specialties.
On one hand, the integrative Hippocratic view; on the opposite, the specialization view, with an ethically problematic depersonalization of the patient that coincides with the rise of pathologic anatomy and medical expertise in the early modern era.
Whereas the latter group would seemingly profit tremendously from the incorporation of holistic medicines into their life, the previous has — perhaps unsurprisingly — co-opted one of these health care, lowering it to a different indicator of 21st-century wealth.
The word holistic – sometimes wholistic – is derived from the Greek word holos, meaning complete or unified, and refers to an strategy which recognises that dwelling techniques have to be regarded of their entirety, and that an organism is greater than the sum of its parts. Typically this leads to what is known in various medication circles as a "therapeutic crisis." This comes about when the cells eradicate poisons into the blood stream all on the similar time, throwing the system into a state of toxic overload until it may well clear the "backlog." Symptoms comparable to nausea, complications, or sensitivities to noise and different stimulations could also be experienced.
This strategy differs radically from that of orthodox drugs, the place the emphasis is on the diagnosis and therapy of the symptoms of illness, and where illness is often regarded in terms of native problems affecting specific organs or parts of the physique.
The word holistic – generally wholistic – is derived from the Greek word holos, that means full or unified, and refers to an approach which recognises that living programs must be regarded in their entirety, and that an organism is greater than the sum of its parts. This reality is usually neglected by media or deliberately stored hidden, with alternative follow being portrayed positively when compared to "huge pharma" The lobby has efficiently pushed for various therapies to be topic to far less regulation than standard medicine.
As of the yr 2000, many insurance coverage corporations will present for some type of different, or complementary treatment. Holistic medicine is an overall philosophy that considers the entire physique of an individual, including the body, bodily, psychologically, socially.
The Journal of Holistic Healthcare is revealed each quarter. Prevention is the first aim, together with tapping into sufferers' innate healing abilities. Essentially the most value-efficient strategy evokes the affected person's own innate therapeutic capabilities. Facilitating healthy life-style changes leads to prevention and treatment of illness as a by-product rather than the primary concern.
Holistic veterinarians follow holistic or complementary veterinary medication. Whether or not you need doctor oversight to manage a severe sickness or are in search of acupuncture treatment or a therapeutic therapeutic massage , our aim is to provide the partnership and sources you should optimize your total health and effectively-being.
Sickness, pain, and the dying process could be studying opportunities for patients and physicians. A superb supply for certified practitioners is the American Board of Holistic Medicine, (AHBM), which was incorporated in 1996. The Bendheim Integrative Drugs Heart affords companies designed to boost high quality of life, improve self-consciousness, and forestall and handle a broad vary of bodily and emotional signs.
If a affected person is being treated with allopathic medication, holistic therapies might a minimum of help the body during treatment, and alleviate the signs that often include drug therapies and surgical procedure. In this means, if individuals have imbalances (bodily, emotional, or religious) in their lives, it might probably negatively affect their general well being.

Leading beauty product retailer Coty (NYSE:COTY) trailed the market last month by shedding 19% compared to a 1% uptick in the S&P 500, according to S&P Global Market Intelligence. That drop still left shareholders looking at significant short-term gains, with the stock up over 50% so far in 2019 compared to a 14% increase in the broader market.
July's slump came following a lukewarm reception on Wall Street for Coty's updated financial targets. On July 1, the company laid out a turnaround plan that calls for improving profitability and reduced debt. However, several pieces of this plan concerned investors, including its projection of essentially no sales growth between now and 2023. Coty also suggested that it may take impairment charges of at least $3 billion in connection with its restructuring initiatives.
Investors will have to wait for the results of Coty's asset review before learning the exact size of its impairment charges, which are partly tied to a massive acquisition that hasn't panned out as investors had hoped it would. But botched buyouts aside, the company's outlook makes it clear that management isn't expecting a quick return to growth ahead. Investors will get more details on both short-term and long-term goals when Coty reports earnings results on Aug. 28.

Who doesn't love something sweet and healthy? Never ever can you have too much sweetness if it's actually doing your body good. I was not born with an inherently natural sweet tooth like my mother. She can honestly eat an entire bag of Dove chocolates and call it "dinner" with no remorse. It's astonishing, actually. I very rarely get a craving for sweetness, but when I do, I tend to opt for something less... guilt ridden. Typically, I spoonful of peanut butter is enough to satiate my craving, but sometimes, I need fruit. And chocolate. And brown sugar.
I came up with this salad based on my love for yogurt parfait... and quite honestly, it's to die for. The best part is that you can customize it with whatever fruit/toppings you like.
I added in the brown sugar first to make sure it mixed with the yogurt. I didn't want it getting stuck to the fruit and clumping.
Next, I added the fruit and just mixed it all together.
Along with some mini caprese's and tortilla chips, guacamole and salsa, we had the perfect snack table for a movie night with Jen and Pat. I cannot wait to whip up some more tasty summer snacks and share them with you! This is also the PERFECT Memorial Day picnic salad. Pack it up in the cooler and take it to the park or the pool and dig in!
What a delicious and gorgeous salad!
I would happily eat this all day every day!

Benin: Farming couple breaks taboo by taking HIV test
Mikaila Issa | November 27, 2017
health social-issues
It's 10 o'clock in the morning. A couple walks hand-in-hand to the health centre in the small village of Ayou, 50 kilometres from Cotonou, the largest city in Benin. Their names are Koba Essou and Nan Aballo and they are farmers. Today, they will take a voluntary HIV test.
At the health centre, they are welcomed by staff from an NGO called CPADES that works on social and economic development. The NGO started working with the health centre to test villagers in 2005.
As the couple enters the screening room, a doctor from the NGO congratulates them. Dr. Ahovi Jerome says it's important for everyone to get tested. He adds that protection is essential when having sex with multiple partners.
Radegonde Aihou is the director of CPADES. Her organization studied the risk of HIV transmission in the village of Ayou. In 2005, the village had an HIV prevalence rate of 13.5%. By contrast, official statistics show that the national HIV prevalence rate in Benin was 1.7%. By 2016, the national prevalence rate had dropped to 1.0%.
Despite the risk associated with high prevalence, the decision to get tested went against social and cultural norms in the community. At first, Ms. Aballo was hesitant to talk with her husband about HIV and AIDS. But she finally broke the taboo. Her husband would not listen at first. But eventually they made a joint decision to get tested.
Ms. Aballo says, "We have a responsibility to save our own lives and the lives of the people we love from HIV and AIDS."
In the past, Mr. Essou did not believe in the existence of HIV and AIDS. But the death of his friend from an AIDS-related disease, along with public education by the NGO, changed his mind.
Mr. Essou no longer doubts that HIV and AIDS are devastating his village. He worries about the burden of HIV on households that are already in a precarious situation. He notes, "When the body fails, crops fail."
While couples like Mr. Essou and Ms. Aballo are breaking taboos, myths about HIV and AIDS persist in Ayou. Many villagers believe that HIV is caused by women's infidelity or that it is a curse.
Fear of being stigmatized leads many to avoid testing. This worries Ms. Aballo. She says, "If nothing is done to encourage voluntary testing, [HIV] prevalence in Ayou will remain high."

Today's IT systems with its ever-growing communication infrastructures and computing applications are becoming more and more large in scale, which results in exponential complexity in their engineering, operation and maintenance. Recently, it has widely been recognized that self-organization and self-management / regulation offer the most promising approach to addressing such challenges. Self-organization and adaptation are concepts stemming from the nature and have been adopted in systems theory. They are considered to be the essential ingredients of any living organism and, as such, are studied intensively in biology, sociology and organizational theory. They have also penetrated into control theory, cybernetics and the study of adaptive complex systems. Computing and communication systems are basically artificial systems. This prevents conventional self-organization and adaptation principles and approaches from being directly applicable to computing and communication systems. The methodology of multi-agent systems and the technology of Grid computing have shed lights for the exploration into the self-organization and adaptation of large-scale complex IT systems. This book provides in-depth thoughts about the above discussed challenges as well as a range of state-of-the-art methodologies and technologies for the entirely new area. We refer to this newly emerging area as Self-Organization and Autonomic Informatics, which has represented the future generation of IT systems, comprised of communication infrastructures and computing applications, which are inherently large-scale, complex and open.
Today's IT systems with its ever-growing communication infrastructures and computing applications are becoming more and more large in scale, which results in exponential complexity in their engineering, operation, and maintenance. Conventional paradigms for run-time deployment, management, maintenance, and evolution are particularly challenged in tackling these immense complexities. Recently, it has widely been recognized that self-organization and self-management/regulation offer the most promising approach to addressing such challenges. Consequently, a number of autonomic/adaptive computing initiatives have been launched by major IT companies, like IBM, HP, and others.
Self-organization and adaptation are concepts stemming from the nature and have been adopted in systems theory. They are considered to be the essential ingredients of any living organism and, as such, are studied intensively in biology, sociology, and organizational theory. They have also penetrated into control theory, cybernetics and the study of adaptive complex systems. The original idea was to understand complex systems behaviour by understanding the systems' self-organization and adaptation mechanisms, i.e., to understand a system by observing the behaviour of its components and their interactions. However, as stated, the study of self-organization and adaptation has mainly been related to living systems so far.
Computing and communication systems are basically artificial systems. This prevents conventional self-organization and adaptation principles and approaches from being directly applicable to computing and communication systems. The complexity attributes in terms of openness, scalability, uncertainty, discrete-event dynamics, etc. have varied contexts in large-scale complex IT systems, and are too prominent to be solved by procedures pre-defined at off-time. Rather, they have to be tackled by means of run-time perception of the complexity patterns and the run-time enforcement of self-organization and adaptation policies. The current knowledge about large-scale complex IT systems is still very limited, and a framework has yet to be established for their self-organization and adaptation.
The methodology of multi-agent systems and the technology of Grid computing have shed lights for the exploration into the self-organization and adaptation of large-scale complex IT systems. A multi-agent system is one that consists of a collection of autonomous and intelligent agents that have the ability to interact with each other and, thus, may by themselves constitute organizations at run-time. The global behaviour of a multi-agent system stems from the emergent interactions among the agents. Multi-agent systems have been studied widely, not only in computer science, software engineering and artificial intelligence, but even more widely under the heading "systems theory" in economics, management science and sociology. In fact, multi-agent systems permeate social, economic, and technical domains. Essentially, multi-agent systems provide a generic model for large-scale complex IT systems. Exploring and understanding the self-organization and adaptation of multi-agent systems is of profound significance for engineering the self-organization and self-management/regulation of large-scale complex IT systems, comprised of communication infrastructures and computing applications.
Grid computing is the new generation of distributed and networked information and computing systems which have the capacity to enable users and applications, in an emergent manner, to transcend the organizational boundaries and to gain access to the distributed heterogeneous computing resources owned and administrated locally by different organizations. A Grid computing system is by nature a large-scale, complex, and open multi-agent system. Grid computing compounds various areas such as distributed computing resource management, semantic web technology, service-oriented architecture and service management, distributed workflow management, distributed problem solving environment, etc. A Grid commutating system exposes all the complexity attributes typical of large-scale complex IT systems. Investigating the self-organization and autonomic systems for Grid computing has remained a huge challenge.
This book provides in-depth thoughts about the above discussed challenges as well as a range of state-of-the-art methodologies and technologies for the entirely new area, that is, self-organization and autonomic systems in computing and communications. We refer to this newly emerging area as Self-Organization and Autonomic Informatics, which has represented the future generation of IT systems, comprised of communication infrastructures and computing applications, which are inherently large-scale, complex, and open.
We are sure that you will find the book interesting.
In a complex dynamic system the centralised control and local monitoring of system behaviour is not achievable by scaling up simple feedback adaptation and control models. This paper proposes using a variety of concepts from distributed artificial intelligence (DAI) to logically model an abstract system control using adaptable agent federations to induce self-organisation in a swarm type system. The knowledge acquisition and updates are handled through a modal logic of belief for team dynamics and the system as a whole evolves to learn from local failures that have minimal impact on the global system. Self-governance emerges from innate (given) action thresholds that are adapted dynamically to system demands. In this way it is shown that such a system conforms to the prerequisites that have been specified as necessary for a system to exhibit self-organisation and the intrinsic benefits of agent teamwork are established for a robust, reliable and agile system. The approach is illustrated by looking at team formation in a swarm scenario from a proposed NASA project. The Situation Calculus is used to formalise the dynamic nature of such systems with a dynamic logic implementation to reason about the ensuing programs. Subsequently the model is encoded using the Neptune scripting language and compiled to an object-oriented system for its deployment on distributed systems architecture.
When designing self-organising emergent multi-agent systems (MASs), a fundamental engineering issue is to achieve a macroscopic behaviour that meets the requirements and emerges only from the behaviour of locally interacting agents. Agent-oriented methodologies today are mainly focussed on engineering the microscopic issues, i.e. the agents, their rules, how they interact, etc, without explicit support for engineering the required macroscopic behaviour. As a consequence, the macroscopic behaviour is achieved in an ad-hoc manner. This paper proposes a way to define a full life-cycle methodology based on an industry-ready software engineering process, i.e. the Unified Process, which is customised to explicitly focus on engineering macroscopic behaviour of self-organising emergent MASs. As such, the MAS paradigm is integrated into an existing and widely accepted methodology and we can systematically develop a solution that exhibits the required macroscopic behaviour.
This paper motivates research into implementing nature-inspired algorithms in decentralised, asynchronous and parallel environments. These characteristics typify environments such as Peer-To-Peer systems, the Grid and autonomic computing which demand robustness, decentralisation, parallelism, asynchronicity and self-organisation. Nature-inspired systems promise these properties. However, current implementations of nature-inspired systems are only loosely based on their natural counterparts. They are generally implemented as synchronous, sequential, centralised algorithms that loop through passive data structures. For their successes to be relevant to the aforementioned new computing environments, variants of these algorithms must work in truely decentralised, parallel and asynchronous Multi-Agent System (MAS) environments. A general methodology is presented for engineering the transfer of nature-inspired algorithms to such a MAS framework. The concept of pheromone infrastructures is reviewed in light of emerging standards for agent platform architecture and interoperability. These ideas are illustrated using a particularly successful nature-inspired algorithm, Ant Colony System for the Travelling Salesman Problem.
In Multiagent systems there are several agents with cooperative or competitive goals. Here, we are especially interested in zero-sum games which contain exactly two players with fully opposite goals. We describe a method based on Maximum-Expected-Utility  principle that learns the ingenuity of the opponent based on the moves of the opponent through a game and exploits this knowledge to play better against that opponent. Then we demonstrate an application of proposed method in the popular board game of Connect-4. The results show that the proposed method is superior compared to previous methods for adversarial environments especially when there is not adequate training for appropriate adaptation against an opponent.
Bayesian approach to decision making is successfully applied in control theory for design of control strategy. However, it is based on on the assumption that a decision-maker is the only active part of the system. Relaxation of this assumption would allow us to build a framework for design of control strategy in multi-agent systems. In Bayesian framework, all information is represented by probability density functions. Therefore, communication and negotiation of Bayesian agents also needs to be facilitated by probabilities. Recent advances in Bayesian theory make formalization these tasks possible. In this paper, we bring the existing theoretic results together and show their relevance for multi-agent systems. The proposed approach is illustrated on the problem of feedback control of an urban traffic network.
The motivation of this paper is to realize an energy-driven self-organising architecture of Social Behaviour Networks(SoBeNet) for the Web application. Internet agents can sense changes in the web environment via virtual web sensors and behavior selection is based on the energy spreading mechanism from the bottom-up paradigm of AI. There is no global coordinator module to control behavior selection and the cooperation between the two agents is implicitly. A social behavior network is formed spontaneously.
In today's hyper-competitive business environments virtual organisations are becoming highly dynamic and unpredictable. Individuals may want to work together across organisation boundaries but do not have much prior knowledge of others. The semantic web and its associated new standards appear very promising as candidates to support a new generation of virtual organisations. In this paper a behaviour based organisation, Social Behaviour Networks, is proposed. In order to sense the changes on the web this paper focuses on a virtual sensor for allocating tasks amongst agents based on the announcements of tasks and capabilities of agents in DAML (DARPA Agent Markup Language). Due to the autonomy of agents the announcements are often vague and in a very high dimensional space. The ontology can provide useful information for achieving variable-resolution sensing from an individual agent's perspective and reducing the dimensions of the virtual space. The variable-resolution virtual sensors are based on hierarchical clustering analysis to reveal the level of similarity of announcements in the web.
The development of multi-agent based solution for outdoor mobile robot navigation is a complex multi-level process. Model Driven Generative Domain Engineering is one domain engineering method aim to developing optimized, reusable architectures, components and aspects for application engineering. According to MDGDE, we designed a set of event-driven agents, which enable the robot to initiate action adaptive to the dynamical changes in the environment. This paper describes our approach as well as its motivations and our practice.
We present a novel approach to enable decision-making in a highly distributed multiagent environment where individual agents need to act in an autonomous fashion. Our architecture framework integrates risk management, knowledge management, and agent deliberation to enable sophisticated, autonomous decision-making. Instead of a centralized knowledge repository, our approach supports a highly distributed knowledge base in which each agent manages a fraction of the knowledge needed by the entire system. Our approach also addresses the fact that the desired knowledge is often highly dynamic, context-sensitive, incomplete, or uncertain. Thus risk management becomes an integral component which enables context-based, situation-aware decision making, which in turn supports autonomous, self-managing behavior of the agents. A prototype system demonstrating the feasibility of our approach is being developed as part of an ongoing funded research project.
The medical milieu is an open environment characterized by a variety of distributed, heterogeneous and autonomous information resources. Coordination, cooperation and exchange of information is important to the medical community. Efficient storage and acquisition of medical knowledge requires structured and standardized organization of data. We design a new ontology, called Generic Human Disease Ontology (GHDO), for the representation of knowledge regarding human diseases. The concepts of the GHDO ontology are organized into the following four 'dimensions': Disease Types, Symptoms, Causes and Treatments. We align and merge existing ontologies against the four dimensions of GHDO. The designed ontology makes our query system suitable for different user categories. The process of problem decomposition into smaller sub-problems within a multi-agent system becomes much easier as well. We also design a multi-agent system framework over different information resources. The multi-agent system uses the common GHDO ontology for query formulation, information retrieval and information integration. This intelligent dynamic system provides opportunities to collect information from multiple information resources, to share data efficiently and to integrate and manage scientific results in a timely manner.
Customer relationship management encompasses all the aspects of the interaction with customer and it joins all the customer related elements within an organization together in an intelligent manner. Despite its numerous benefits for organizations, there are some serious concerns regarding the implementation of CRM. Customer relationship management projects are usually complicated, long-term and resource-consuming with outstanding results for far future. The new conceptual model of CRM introduced here is a Multi-Agent System (MAS) called 'agent-based CRD'. It is the process of developing electronic context and content within customer relationships on a collaborative basis using intelligent agents. Agent-based CRD comprises three essential building blocks: single view, intelligent electronic dialogue, and opportunity spotting. A general structure for agent-based CRD framework, which is easy to understand and implement is presented graphically, theoretically, and technically in full details.
This document presents a study for the securing of Java-based systems based in the Mobile Agent paradigm. Security is an important issue for the widespread development of applications based on software agent technology. It is generally agreed that without the proper countermeasures in place, use of agent-based applications will be severe impeded. This document gives an overview of the threats associated with software agent systems focused on the elements of our simplified model: Agents and Agent Platforms and also describe a general method for controlling the behavior of mobile agent-system entities through the allocation of privileges. This approach overcomes a number of problems in existing agent systems and provides a means for attaining improved interpretability of agent systems designed and implemented independently by different manufacturers.
This paper employs the methodology of Agent-Based Computational Economics (ACE) to investigate under what conditions trust can be viable in markets. The emergence and breakdown of trust is modeled in a context of multiple buyers and suppliers. Agents adapt their trust in a partner, the weight they attach to trust relative to profitability, and their own trustworthiness, modeled as a threshold of defection. Adaptation occurs on the basis of realized profit. Trust turns out to be viable under fairly general conditions.
Grid computing environments are being extended in order to present some features that are typically found in pervasive computing environments. In particular, Grid environments have to allow mobile users to access to their services and resources, and self-adapt based on mobile user location and context. Moreover, mobile users have to have the possibility of changing their location without wondering about their pending computations. This requires that the environment be able to self-manage mobile users implicit disconnections, who may also reappear later and be willing of resuming their computations. In this paper, we present a session manager service for distributed federations of pervasive grids. The service makes mobile users able of leaving a pervasive grid and resuming later, and even in another grid of the federation, their computations. The service relies on the mobile agents technology. In particular, a personal agent is associated to every mobile user active in the environment. The personal agent offers the list of application services available at the location of the user and handles the list of activated services. If the user moves in another grid, the personal agent migrates in the new grid, handles the list of pending services, and updates the list of available services for the new location.
Avalanche Dynamics in Grids: Indications of SOC or HOT?
Complex systems such as those in evolution, growth and depinning models do not evolve slowly and gradually, but exhibit avalanche dynamics or punctuated equilibria. Self-Organized Criticality (SOC) and Highly Optimized Tolerance (HOT) are two theoretical models that explain such avalanche dynamics. We have studied avalanche dynamics in two vastly different grid computing systems: Optimal Grid and Vishva. Failures in optimal grid cause an avalanche effect with respect to the overall computation. Vishva does not exhibit failure avalanches. Interestingly, Vishva exhibits load avalanche effects at critical load density, wherein a small load disturbance in one node can cause load disturbances in several other nodes. The avalanche dynamics of grid computing systems implies that grids can be viewed as SOC systems or as HOT systems. An SOC perspective suggests that grids may be sub-optimal in performance, but may be robust to unanticipated uncertainties. A HOT perspective suggests that grids can be made optimal in performance, but would then be sensitive to unanticipated perturbations. An ideal approach for grid systems research is to explore a combination of SOC and HOT as a basis for design, resulting in robust yet optimal systems.
We investigate approaches for the automated configuration of distributed Grid services. In particular, we implement several approaches for combining configuration information specified by a group of collaborating institutions (a Virtual Organization or VO) with local configuration parameters. We describe our implementation of merging strategies for configuring the Globus Replica Location Service. Based on our initial work, we describe outstanding issues for merging local and VO configuration policies and for resolving conflicting policies.
We consider that the concept derived of the integration of pervasive, context-aware and grid computing is suitable for building the next generation of the grid applications which assist to nomadic and mobile users. To demonstrate our ideas we have implemented a pilot application, called GeneAl, using the API provided by EXEHDA middleware. EXEHDA is adaptive, service oriented and was conceived to support the execution of pervasive grid applications. The main concept embedded in middleware and application design is the context-awareness expressed by their adaptive behavior. This is also a key to provide functionality adapted to the constraints and unpredictability of the large-scale mobile environment. To achieve this objective, EXEHDA employs a lot of strategies in its services to allow the adaptation to the current state of the execution context, such as on-demand adaptive service loading and dynamic discovery and configuration. The middleware manages and implements the follow-me semantics for pervasive grid applications. In that sense, it provides services for distributed adaptive execution, context recognition, pervasive storage and access, anonymous and asynchronous communications.
A Grid information system should rely upon two basic features: the replication and dissemination of information about Grid services and resources, and an intelligent distribution of such information among Grid hosts. This paper examines an approach based on ant-based systems to replicate and map Grid services information on Grid hosts according to a given semantic classification of such services. Information is disseminated by agents (ants), which traverse the Grid by exploiting the P2P interconnections among Grid hosts. An entropy index is used to evaluate the performance of the proposed Ant-based Replication and MApping protocol (ARMAP), and control the dissemination of resource information. This approach enables the use of a semi-informed search algorithm which can drive query messages towards a cluster of peers having information about resources belonging to the requested class. A simulation analysis has been performed to evaluate the performance of the ARMAP protocol.
The emerging Grid technologies hold out the promise of a global information channel that is far more powerful and uniquely distinct from the existing internet framework. This paper aims to provide a state of the art of work addressing the need of resource discovery in computational Grids. The various resource discovery models, techniques and approaches are discussed along with their pros & cons, and recommendations are made with respect to practical implementation and directions of future research in Grid resource discovery.
This paper presents a high level model for the reliable use of mobile distributed services within Grid applications arising from research within the European research project Akogrimo. In the paper we discuss reliability and mobility in respect to static and mobile Grid services. We then introduce current research from the project into a high level blueprint/model for the architecture surrounding the provision of reliable distributed Grid services in a mobile environment.

IMMACULATAM HOSTIAM=IMMACULATE VICTIM
In the days of Pope Leo XIII (1878-1903) he often found himself having to explain Catholic teaching. For example, only priests are ordained to "say Mass" and only priests have the "power and authority" to confect the sacraments. Laymen are not so authorized.
Catholic prayer books with Latin Mass translations were non-existent. Popes did not authorize Mass prayerbooks with English translations. Despite this papal prohibition, Catholic publishers produced these prayerbooks with English translations and American bishops stamped their "imprimaturs." To this very day, there is no English translation yet approved by the proper authorities in Rome.
Why did the Church not approve such prayerbook translations? Perhaps the answer can be found in the aftermath of Vatican II when "New Mass" in English (the Novus Ordo) made its appearance. Many deacons, lay readers and often lay preachers actually believe that they also are "priests of a sort, who also say Mass." Some very proud laymen seemed to have the attitude that they could say it even better than the priest!
In the times following the Anglican takeover from the Catholic Church, many Catholics in England believed the Anglican service to be rightfully and validly Catholic since the Anglican was presented to them by their own local Catholic Church. [This is similar to our day when Latin Mass was forbidden and New Mass was imposed by the local bishops.]
Because Catholics were confused by the use of the Anglican translations used in Catholic prayerbooks, Pope Leo convened a commission to study the Anglican question once more, despite the fact that it had already been declared invalid. He appointed Abbot Aidan Gasquet to head his study. The commission found the Anglican to be "null and void." But the damage had already been done. While the translations were correct for the Anglicans, they were incorrect for Catholics and were infecting Catholic doctrine. [Pope Leo issued Apostolicae in 1896.]
Why did Abbot Gasquet come to America in 1913? He gave sermons in which he compared the canonized Catholic Latin Mass to the Anglican service. Now we know how "immaculata hostiam" is mistranslated to "spotless host." Non-Catholics like the Anglicans believe the bread and wine to be merely symbolic of Christ.
Immaculate Victim, Christ, is offered! Is this not why He was born–to be offered in Sacrifice, to rise from the dead and to be "active and alive" among us in the Holy Eucharist and Sacraments?
From the earliest days of the Church, efforts were made to change Christ's teaching and to change the Faith. It was the devil's plan. Satan had to destroy the Church before he could then destroy every vestige of Christianity in the world and all its governments.
In our day, in the recent past of the 1960s, the false media played up all manner of errors the Church was fighting and made news heroes of all the experts of Vatican II who spoke out in favor of the Church men changing the rules to embrace the errors. The Church became politically correct to the world while becoming politically deaf to the need for God's law and order in its Catholic people. This breakdown of the Church led to the present attempt to destabilize the governments of the whole world in favor of satanic chaos.
There appears to be an effort to bring back the Latin Mass. Let us pray that this is accomplished soon and that the Church becomes prayerfully attuned to God and His Will "By the very fact that you changed the words indicate that you do not have the intention to do what the Church has always done." (paraphrased Pope Leo to the Anglicans.) See The Abbot & Me on Liturgy by Fr. Paul Trinchard.
A final note: Pope Leo was petitioned to add St. Joseph to the Canon of martyrs in the Mass. He refused explaining that no one, not even he as pope, could change what Christ had ordained.
Also: Not even the priest on the altar had an English translation of the Latin Mass in his altar Mass Book!
"SISTER SAID" What Did Sister Say?
In the golden days of yesteryear when the good nuns taught in Catholic schools, whatever "Sister said" was accepted as coming from God.
Sister said:
The Church never changes.
The Mass has to be in Latin.
Let us Read and Remember.
Let us Pray.
Has the Church changed?
CHRIST or SPOTLESS HOST?
Offertory Prayer in Latin
Suscipe, sancte Pater, omnípotens ætérne Deus, hanc immaculátam hóstiam, quam ego indígnus fámulus tuus óffero tibi, Deo meo vivo et vero, pro innumerabílibus peccátis, et offensiónibus, et negligéntiis meis, et pro ómnibus circumstántibus, sed et pro ómnibus fidélibus Christiánis vivis atque defúnctis: ut mihi, et illis profíciat ad salútem in vitam ætérnam. Amenw.
St. Joseph Daily Missal, Catholic Book Publishing Company, 1956, pp 658-659 and every single Latin/English prayerbook.
* Incorrect English Translation *
Accept, O Holy Father, Almighty and Eternal God, this * spotless host, * which I, Thy unworthy servant, offer unto Thee, my living and true God, to atone for my numberless sins, offenses, and negligences; on behalf of all here present and likewise for all faithful Christians living and dead, that it may profit me and them as a means of salvation unto life everlasting. Amen.
* SHOULD BE: IMMACULATE VICTIM * not "spotless host."
Offering of the Victim in Latin
Unde et mémores, Dómine, nos servi tui, sed et plebs tua sancta ejúsdem Christi Fílii tui Dómini nostri tam beátæ Passiónis, nec non et ab ínferis Resurrectiónis, sed et in cœlos gloriósæ Ascensiónis: offérimus præcláræ majestáti tuæ de tuis donis ac datis hóstiam puram, hóstiam sanctam, hóstiam immaculátam * Panem sanctum * vitæ ætérnæ, et Cálicem salútis perpetuæ. * "Panem" translates Holy Bread.* see below
Since the same terminology "immaculatam hostim" is used in both the Supplices Sanctae Pater prayer, why is the first translated "spotless host" and the other in the Per Upsum prayer translate "immaculate Victim?"
Since "panem" means bread and "hostia" means "victim," what is a "spotless host?" Since Latin offers Christ, the Lamb of God, is spotless host "a piece of white unleavened bread" just as the Newmass prays: "We offer this bread made with human hands...."
Correct English Translation
Mindful, therefore, O Lord, not only of the blessed passion of the same Christ, Thy Son, our Lord, but also of His resurrection from the dead, and finally His glorious ascension into heaven, we, Thy ministers, as also Thy holy people, offer unto Thy supreme majesty, of the gifts bestowed upon us, the pure Victim, the holy Victim, the all-perfect Victim: the holy Bread of life eternal and the Chalice of unending salvation.
St. Joseph Daily Missal, Catholic Book Publishing Company, 1956, pp 678-681
"Spotless host" does not appear in Latin anywhere in this prayer.
Is "spotless host" referring to bread? No: PANEM is the Latin word for bread.
Is "spotless host" a result of infiltration of the Anglican which denied Latin and "anything pope-ish, in its departure from the Roman Catholic Mass? See Pope Leo XIII, Apostolicae Curae, 1896. See The Abbot & Me on Liturgy.
Since immaculatam hostia translates "immaculate Victim" in the Offering of the Victim Prayer, should it not translate the same in the Offertory Prayer? The Holy Catholic Mass does not offer bread; Christ is offered.
Are mistranslations the reason why the International Commission of English in the Liturgy (ICEL) did not accept the American Bishops' translation of English in the Latin Liturgy? Has the American Bishops' Church departed from Christ's One, Holy, Catholic, Apostolic Church?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"The Novus Ordo is a striking departure from the Catholic theology of the Holy Mass."
__so stated the Cardinals' Commission (Ottaviani and Bacci) of upper clergy and theologians to Pope Paul VI regarding the version of the Novus Ordo which was close to being orthodox than the (American) Novus Ordo English Liturgy.
The Novus Ordo version imposed by American Bishops via the International Commission on English Liturgy has never been approved by the Vatican.
Should today's bishops form a commission to study the orthodoxy of this English New Mass to validate its legitimacy as Catholic theology?
Why not mail your favorite book to your Bishop with a prayerful note regarding this matter?
Can today's American Bishops fix the errors imposed by their 1960s' predecessors–Bishops in Revolt against the Sacred Tradition in both Human and Liturgical Morals established by Christ Himself and handed down to us from His Apostles? The Revolting Bishops' "new Mass" is a new religion!
Today's Bishops certainly can fix the problem, but first they need to recognize the vast differences between the Mass from Christ and Christ's religion versus the Bishops "new Mass" and its "new religion." If one is not "for Christ," then one is against Christ; one is anti-Christ. History, Holy Tradition and Apostolic lineage all support Christ's Holy Mass and religion.
Lex orandi; lex credendi.
What is prayed is what is believed. What is believed is what is prayed.
Hence, "new Mass" is a "new religion."
Let us pray the Rosary–which the Revolting Bishops denigrated in their day. The Rosary, let us pray that today's Bishops at least "begin" to fix our problem.
Why not mail your favorite book to your Bishop with prayerful note? God bless this effort.

A Priest for Our Times
Fr. Paul Trinchard was ordained a Jesuit priest on June 7, 1966 by Archbishop Philip M. Hanna in the Archdiocese of New Orleans. He had already graduated from Loyola University with a degree in physics and had been working in the aerospace industry when he answer his call to the priesthood. Thus began his introduction and indoctrination into Rogerianism and liberalism, leading him to become a Novus Ordo priest.
Despite his Latin Rite ordination to "say Mass for the living and the dead" and to "forgive sins," Father Trinchard explains that neither he nor his classmates were taught, nor practiced the sacred rituals for celebrating the Holy Sacrifice of the Latin Mass. Despite the fact that t…

The Bliz Velo XT sunglasses turned out to be good for all my sports activities.
Only a bit "un"good for their marketing.
What do you think when you see an eyewear (sports sunglasses) company advertising "Ultra Lens Science," "the ultimate in lens technology" with "9 features in 1 lens"?
When I saw that claim at the 2016 ISPO sports fair, at the booth of Swedish brand Bliz, I wasn't sure what to make of it. It was the very last day, when everyone starts packing up, so I didn't get to ask about it, either.
It stuck with me, though, and so I contacted them a little while later.
Another week later, and one of their Velo XT glasses was in my mail, provided by them for my testing.
Full disclosure: So, yeah, I got those sunglasses for free, to try out. Without any conditions, influence exerted, etc. The review is fully mine and, as I hope you'll see, as objective as anything so subjective can be.
Here we are, two years later… and I'm glad they didn't ask for anything in return; I don't think most companies who send out sample products to test would be very happy if they only got reviews published years later.
I'm also happy things went this way because it gave me a chance to try these sunglasses over a long period of time, on many a run and hike.
In fact, if you have seen any of my race reports or trail descriptions of the last years, there is a good chance you have seen those glasses, the Bliz Velo XT.
I.e., the sun glass's lenses adjust to the sunlight hitting them by becoming lighter or darker.
This they definitely do, and pretty well.
There are times I feel that they should be a little darker in glaring sun, but the only sunglasses that are darker would be ones made for glacier use.
Most of the time, anyways, the only "problem" I have with that feature is that it makes the sunglasses so not-noticeable, whether under forest cover or out in the sun, especially as they are also pretty lightweight and nicely fitting, I just don't need to think about them.
To reduce glare. Frankly, I can't say that I noticed the effect – or any problematic glare, for that matter.
Well, that's certainly where it becomes very good that I could test these glasses for longer, through the winter. For the most part, they were at least as good as the Oakley Wind Jacket, I feel. There can still be some fogging when the temperature difference is high enough.
In winter conditions, I tend to have issues with any and all sunglasses, though.
They don't fog, then, they ice over (from my breath coming out directly onto the glasses from underneath a wrap around my mouth).
As usual, anti-scratch coatings are nice to have, work to some extent, but not perfectly. After these 2 years, there is some scratching. But, again, that is something happening on any and all sunglasses, just even worse when their lenses don't have an anti-scratch coating.
My Oakleys have suffered to the point where I cannot use them anymore; the Bliz are still no problem to use.
Another one, like anti-scratch, of those features that are always nice-to-have, but also always a bit problematic in terms of expectation management.
The expectation is that such a feature will mean that water just glides off, smudges from touching the lenses with one's hand don't appear – but that all doesn't quite work that way.
This is, in fact, the one point of contention I would have, as the glasses clean quite well, but only once you figure out how you have to hold a cleaning cloth – tight, because it doesn't slide over these glasses.
Raindrops that I get on there also stay on there, so this doesn't go the way I think it should.
We checked out another pair of Bliz Velo XT at a booth of theirs, though, and it seems like maybe there is a problem with that coating on the glasses I have; water pearled off the ones they had there rather better.
Nothing too surprising from sunglasses unless you get ones for 2 bucks from a street vendor; they don't let UV rays through, helping to protect your eyes. This is something one just has to believe, but looks to be working as they say.
A lens that curves so that one's view is not distorted by them.
Like the photochromatic property, I think this works perfectly – given that I can't remember ever noticing anything about it.
Some of them are a bit of an over-promise. Maybe.
But, I have discussed that before with people from Oakley as well as Bliz, and it tends to be a result of over-expectation, as well.
And then, where things work perfectly, instead, they are just not noticeable.
I still like some other glasses for the looks (and features).
For my Oakley Wind Jacket, for example, I would need to replace the lenses, though. And I don't want to spend the money, knowing that they will just get scratched again.
With that, I have been more than happy to use the Bliz Velo XT for doing sports now.
That isn't just a result of my having got them for free. They also look quite alright (even if I still could do without the "B" logo squat in the middle of the nose bridge). More importantly, they have served me perfectly well.
I want to go out for sports and have my eyes protected – which I always want, summer or winter, rain or shine, because of the contact lenses I wear for sports?
I grab the Bliz Velo XT.
No questions asked, no doubt they'll work.
