To examine effects of input and learner characteristics on morphology acquisition, 60 adult English speakers learned to inflect masculine and feminine Russian nouns in nominative, dative, and genitive cases. By varying training vocabulary size (i.e., type variability), holding constant the number of learning trials, we tested whether learners required a "critical mass" of vocabulary to generalize case marking patterns to new nouns. Cattell's Culture-Fair IQ Test mediated the effect of type variability on success in generalizing case marking to new vocabulary: only participants with above-median Culture-Fair Test scores showed the predicted critical mass effect of better generalization with larger training vocabulary. These results demonstrate how individual differences in central executive functioning and attention allocation capacity can affect adult second language learning.

Assure Home Inspection offers unbiased, third-party home inspections services to the greater Chicago metropolitan area. We've been in business since 2005, providing our clients with a comprehensive understanding of their current or prospective home so that they can go on to find success with any real estate transaction they choose to make. We adhere to ASHI's strict Standards of Practice.
Our buyer's inspection involves a thorough examination of a home's visible and readily accessible features. We stay up to date with the emerging technologies of the industry, utilizing specialized instruments during our inspection services wherever necessary.
Thermal imaging is used to scan the temperature signatures of select components, revealing potential areas of energy loss or moisture intrusion (a moisture meter may also be used).
If the home's roofing system is visibly damaged or built with slick materials, we'll use aerial drone photography or a Spectoscope to accurately and comprehensively evaluate the roof's condition.
If you schedule a Radon Test at the same time as your home inspection, we'll include the Radon Test for only $175!
This inspection is meant for commercial properties of virtually any size. We'll arrive on-site to comprehensively evaluate the property, looking for any defects or safety issues that may be present in the structure or mechanical systems of the building.
If defects are found, we'll report the nature and extent of the issue so that you understand what investment in the property may entail in terms of repairs and maintenance.
When the time has arrived to sell your home, it's a good idea to know exactly what you're dealing with. This inspection will give you a clear understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of your home, giving you an opportunity to schedule repairs and maintenance as necessary.
You'll also be able to disclose known issues to prospective buyers in order to prevent stalled negotiations once they've brought in their own inspector.
Our new construction inspection services are a great way to establish peace of mind with the quality of your new home. Before the builder takes you on the final walkthrough of the property, we'll thoroughly inspect most readily accessible features.
Our subsequent report will explain any defects or safety issues that we've come across, providing you with any pertinent information that you need to address with the builder before the project is complete.
When you invested in a brand new home, it more than likely came backed by a 1-year warranty from the builder.
This inspection should be scheduled before that year has passed so that we can identify any potential issues that could be covered under the warranty agreement—keeping you from having to pay for repairs out of your own pocket.
This inspection is for clients who have had us complete another inspection that led to the discovery of defective components, safety issues, or areas in need of immediate maintenance.
Once any necessary changes have been put in place, we can return to the property to re-evaluate the component in questions so that you can have peace of mind knowing that your prospective home is safe and sound.
When moisture penetrates the structure of a home, developing mold can be the next step. We offer thorough mold inspection services and testing to make sure that your home or business is free of this dangerous substance.
Our services include a visual inspection plus a wide variety of sampling services including Mold Spore Air Testing and Swab Testing. These samples are analyzed by certified professional and impartial labs. We know the signs of mold to watch out for and can track mold back to the source.
Once you are aware of a mold issue inside your home, you should seriously consider having Assure Home Inspection perform Mold Mitigation services. This process involves the removal of mold and the repair of damaged areas as necessary.
We'll also spray the affected areas with an encapsulate that will prevent mold from returning in the future. Assure Home Inspections guarantees that mold will not return to any of the areas that have been treated for a period of 20 years.
Radon is an invisible and odorless gas that releases from the soil over time allowing it to enter into your residence. It is the second leading cause of lung cancer and is responsible for approximately 21,000 deaths per year.
Radon testing is not something you should overlook. It only takes 48 hours to run a professional radon test. Assure Home Inspection utilizes Continuous Radon Monitors and electric ion chamber methodology to ensure radon levels are captured hourly for the most accurate results. DIY kits purchased at stores are not true integrated devices; therefore, they bias their results toward the end of the test period.
If a home is known to be contaminated by radon, you should schedule Radon Mitigation with Assure Home Inspection. We'll take the necessary steps to exhaust radon from the home, installing a system that will reduce the gas to safe levels and prevent future exposure. Our mitigations include a lifetime warranty for maintaining radon levels under the recommended exposure levels of 4.0 pCi/l.
Asbestos is still a component of many building materials and is a known hazardous carcinogen. Any building material that is not made of wood, metal, or glass may contain asbestos.
An asbestos inspection is required any time a homeowner, landlord or contractor is remodeling, demolishing, or disturbing materials that may contain asbestos.
If asbestos is found, Assure Home Inspection will let you know the severity of the problem and what can be done to fix it.
At Assure Home Inspection, we want you to close on a home that you and your family can truly enjoy—without the headache of unforeseen repairs or unreasonable amounts of maintenance. Our thorough home inspection services will ensure that you know about any pre-existing issues before you make a decision.

The answers people get to these questions from defense attorneys vary greatly. My first response when I am asked this always begins with, "First, you shouldn't be drinking and driving." However, the reality is, there is no law in the State of Georgia that makes it illegal to drink and drive. It is only illegal to drink and drive if, due to the alcohol you consumed, you are "less safe" to operate your motor vehicle.
Therefore, when I get asked the question posed above, I don't think it is prudent to answer the question with an advisory opinion, it is better that people understand the repercussions of the decisions that they have available to them on the side of the road and make a decision given their threshold for potential ramifications.
Take field sobriety tests or not.
Take the State requested breath/blood test or not.
Ask for an independent test or not.
Standardized field sobriety evaluations (more info about these evaluations will be discussed in a future blog) are tools that an officer can use to help him/her determine if the subject of their investigation is under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Many things can affect the results obtained on these evaluations (environmental, personal, officer proficiency, and subjective interpretation). If an individual submits to these evaluations, the officer will use all the factors of the encounter in making an arrest decision, including the field sobriety evaluations. If these fields are refused by the subject, the officer will be forced to make his/her determination off the limited contact that has occurred, including but not limited to, any physical manifestations of impairment exhibited by the driver. How much information you feel comfortable giving the officer is what dictates this decision.
Once you are under arrest, you will be asked to submit to a test of your blood, breath, urine, or other bodily substance. If you refuse this test, the officer can file paperwork to start the suspension of your license prior to you even going to court. If you take the test, that test will be offered into evidence against you in court.
Whether you have a right to ask for an independent test is determined by whether you took the State's test. You have no right to your own test if you have refused to take the State requested test. However, if you did take the State's test, there is no downside to asking for your own independent test other than those results coming back consistent with the State's test. If that happens it leaves less arguments to be made that the State's test must be wrong.
Ultimately, I tell people that whatever decision you make at the time of your encounter; that is the right decision. It is very hard to advise people as to what they should do. Only you know how much you had to drink, only you know how coordinated you are, only you know if there are other factors that would impact your ability to perform tests, and every officer has different proficiency levels with DUI detection and enforcement.
Therefore, I say again, it is best not to drink and drive. However, if you do/did, and you are facing a DUI charge, contact our office immediately so that we can assist you in this difficult time.

The job search can be a long, tedious process. No matter how strong you are as a candidate, it might be filled with frustration, annoyance, and disappointment. Often, for reasons entirely out of your control, the job search may take a whole lot longer than you expect. For all these reasons, you might start feeling burnt out by the entire process.
But you can't let that stop you. Finding a new position is crucial to your continued career progression and financial health. If you're feeling burnt out by the job search, there are a few things you can do to get back on the path to success.
If you're like many job seekers, the job search isn't just draining you while you're on the computer actively looking and applying. It's constantly on your mind, weighing you down, and giving you fatigue.
That drain also happens when you're employed, but you avoid it by taking the occassional vacation. You take a week or two to go to a tropical paradise, a new country, or even a drive to the beach. If you treat your job search like a full time job and it's taking longer than you expected, it's only logical that there might come a time when you should take a brief vacation.
You don't need to have a ton of disposable money available, either. Go visit a friend a few towns over or take a few day trips in a row to get out of and away from the house. Just like burning out at work or in school, you're doing yourself a disservice by not resetting your clock and recharging your batteries. Your motivation will dwindle and your passion will disappear, leading to a poor showing at interviews and putting you into a cycle of rejection.
So take the time to rest, recharge, and replenish your energy for another round of job hunting. Hit the slopes, go to the beach, or simply lounge in front of the TV for a few days straight. You'll thank yourself when you get back to the grind with new gusto.
When you fall into the same exact routine every day for hours on end, you lose the focus and drive necessary for a successful job search. If your process is becoming monotonous, you risk miscommunicating passion and excitement because you're just churning through steps.
So instead of trudging forward with the same tactics, try a complete refresh on your job search to get some life back into it. Write a brand new resume from scratch by gathering five to ten top job descriptions and catering your experience to the language contained within. Instead of using a template cover letter, write each cover letter from scratch. Instead of applying to every single job you think is suitable, be more precise in targeting the specific companies that truly excite you.
Starting from scratch doesn't just allow you to refresh your job search. It also allows you to take all the lessons you learned from your various mistakes, failures, and successes, and combine them to run a smarter, more optimized hunt.
Try new outreach tactics that you haven't tried before, such as foregoing the online application and instead directly emailing the hiring manager. Test a different approach to your cover letters, going for casual rather than formal. Get a job search buddy. By switching things up, you learn what works and improve yourself as a job seeker.
If you're so disillusioned by the job search that you simply don't want to continue it, there are options that will allow you to take an extended break. You don't have to go for a full time job to have financial stability and make career progress. Instead, you can go for some alternatives that will give you the finances you need while still adding to your resume.
One of these alternatives is freelancing. Websites like Elance, Freelancer.com, or even profession-specific communities on Reddit, will give you the opportunities you need to do some freelance work for businesses and individuals that need your talents. If you're a good writer with a quality portfolio of work, find media outlets that would pay for your work.
Build out a portfolio of your work and display it online in one of the many available portfolio sites. Start advertising your services. Reach out to different want ads for freelance projects.
Plenty of alternatives to full time employment exist. You can treat them as your full time job or a way to make some money while you continue your job hunt. Either way, they're a great way to show yourself as an active professional.
How you respond to job search burnout can be the difference between a long extension to your job hunt or a faster positive result. It all depends on your willingness to change your mindset about how you approach the process. Get the rest you need, make some changes to your routine, and you'll have the energy to power through the hiring process.


Part of Texas's unique climate are the cold temperatures that typically span from November through February. Although trees have a more distinct presence in Spring, Summer and Fall, the cold temperatures of Texas can present unique challenges for the beautiful trees of our landscapes.
Over the past week we have had a steady amount of precipitation compounded with freezing temperatures at night. There are several reasons this can have a negative impact on trees. One of the first being that some trees have biologically weaker wood and limb-to-trunk unions. A perfect example of this is the Bradford Pear tree, a prevalent and slightly contentious tree of DFW. Although a full and well-shaped tree after blooming, the limbs of the Bradford Pear are extremely weak, and it is known to have a lifespan of under 25 years. For specimens like this, the additional weight of frozen precipitation on the branches and limbs can be the "straw that breaks the camels back" or rather a large limb off the shade tree in your front yard.
Another direct way that damage from the cold can impact your trees is if the tree has previous decay, damage or existing cavities. The first and most obvious reason is that the additional weight of frozen precipitation on the canopy can push those already compromised areas over the breaking point. Alternately, moisture that builds up in these areas can freeze and expand, causing a variety of damage.
As a home owner it is important to understand some of these potential negative impacts, especially if the tree in question has potential targets; A target being anything of value, including homes, cars, (or God forbid) a bystander, that could be damaged from limb or tree failure. Although some tree failures are unforeseeable, there are steps and monitoring that can be implemented to mitigate the chances that this happens to your tree. This highlights the importance of receiving consulting from an ISA Certified Arborist.
Some steps in prevention of tree or limb failure due to cold include thinning and structure pruning. Thinning involves lowering the density of the canopy that does not impact overall tree health. Thinning can provide a variety of benefits including more airflow and sunlight that passes to the deeper portions of the canopy, as well as reducing the overall weight of a tree's canopy. Structural pruning is the method in which limbs are cut to give the tree the optimal structure for growth and strength. An important detail in structural pruning is the observance of included bark. Included bark is a portion of bark between limb-to-trunk unions that is relatively weak and depending on the situation can be a determining factor in removing large and high break-potential limbs. These pruning techniques must all be done properly to prevent damage or the creation of cavities which could lead to future problems.
Overall, it is a crucial step to understand the type of trees you have on your property, any defects a tree may have, opportunities that could lead to tree or branch failure and potential targets of failure. With professional consulting from a Certified Arborist and proactive steps to mitigate future problems, prevention and education can help move us in a direction of mutual benefit for the trees of our landscapes.

Irked By Broadcast Coverage, Gymnastics Sites Aim To Raise The Bar As the Olympic trials loom in women's gymnastics, an informal group of blogs and podcasts called the "gymternet" has been shaking up how the sport is covered — focusing on athleticism, not sparkles.
Words You'll Hear
Irked By Broadcast Coverage, Gymnastics Sites Aim To Raise The Bar

Simone Biles took first place overall in the U.S. women's gymnastics championships on June 26 in St. Louis. Biles is expected to win several gold medals in the Olympics.
There are two types of people in this world: those who know their Stalder Shaposhnikovas from their Pak Saltos — and those who have absolutely no idea whether the first half of this sentence was even written in English.
For the group that does know, though — the hard-core gymnastics fans — a set of blogs, podcasts and resources has been emerging to fill a gap in the major broadcast coverage of women's gymnastics. It's called the "gymternet," an alternative group of sites that are shaking up the ways the sport is covered.
Specifically, these superfans are moving to correct what they see as condescension in broadcast coverage of the sport.
"It was very much focused on these 'little girls dancing on a playground.' That's a cliche you would hear on NBC over and over again," says reporter and gym fan Elspeth Reeve, who wrote about the gymternet in the New Republic. "Even at the 2012 Olympics, you had the Russian gymnasts referred to as 'divas' and 'temperamental.' It was honestly a bit sexist."
Reeve points to one example in particular, when an NBC commentator compared a gymnast's injury to getting a tear in her wedding dress right before walking down the aisle.

McKayla Maroney, unimpressed — possibly with the state of broadcast coverage of women's gymnastics.
But starting around 2008, Reeve says, blogs began popping up to give gymnastics addicts the in-depth coverage they craved. The gymternet was born around the same time as Tumblr — the site popular for sharing animated GIFs — perhaps because watching a gymnast do a backflip works out to be a good GIF length.
Sites like The Gymternet and the site and podcast GymCastic "provide the real necessary pushback that's not about the sparkles and the girlishness," Reeve tells host Ray Suarez on All Things Considered. "It's about the crazy workouts, the incredible athletics, the injuries, coming back from injuries."
The Gymternet website covers gymnastics from all over the world, not just the U.S. You'll find results from competitions in South Korea, South Africa, Turkey, Russia and more.
But here in the U.S., the big action is the upcoming Olympic trials in San Jose on July 8 and 10, which will determine the members to represent the country in the Olympic Games in Brazil next month.
Nineteen-year-old Simone Biles leads the way and is expected to rack up gold medals in Rio de Janeiro. Last weekend she won a fourth consecutive national title at the P&G Championships in St. Louis. She's already a three-time world champion.
5 videos of @Simone_Biles's amazing gymnastics routines to get you excited for the Olympics: https://t.co/VCIQxdck9Z pic.twitter.com/bOKs2eKj7J
— The Cut (@TheCut) June 27, 2016
"If she stays mentally healthy and physically healthy, she could walk away with five golds," Reeve says.
The athletes embrace the clout of the gymternet too. Biles has almost half a million followers on Instagram and more than 57,000 on Twitter. Reeve writes that McKayla Maroney, a gold medalist, announced her retirement on the GymCastic podcast instead of a major network.
Women's gymnastics qualifying in the Olympics starts Aug. 7 — and there's a good chance the gymternet will have full coverage.

Far Cry Primal review round-up
By Matt Gander	Blog 23 February, 2016
We've come full circle – an early Far Cry tech demo, from back when the series was unofficially known as X-Isle, featured huge lumbering dinosaurs. That was in 2002. Skip forward fourteen years, and Far Cry finds itself revisiting its prehistoric roots. No dinos, mind, but plenty of primal rage.
The new setting allows for some fun ideas (rideable woolly mammoths! Pet bears!) but some sacrifices have been made along the way, such as a far smaller assortment of weapons. Stodgy melee combat is one apparent downfall; the poor story another. Most critics agreed though that there's plenty to get your carnivorous teeth into – this is a fully-fledged Far Cry, and not a mere Blood Dragon style spin-off.
As you can see for yourself below, Far Cry Primal has arrived to a steady slew of 7s and 8s:
4.5/5 – The Escapist: "Do you like Far Cry and survival games? Play Primal right away. You won't regret it"
8.75 – GameInformer: "Don't let the lack of a number fool you: This is a full Far Cry experience, with top-notch production and another massive open world to explore"
8.5 – Polygon: "I don't want every Far Cry game from here on to trade bullets for arrows, motorcycles for tigers, but Primal is an invigorating example of how to reimagine a tired franchise while keeping its soul intact"
8.5 – The Jimquisition: "Far Cry Primal is a great example of trying new things in a smart and relatively safe manner, demonstrating how a popular series can keep itself invigorated"
8.5 – God is a Geek: "Far Cry Primal retains the framework of previous entries, but introduces enough to breath life into the series"
8/10 – GameSpot: "When it uses the Stone Age setting to elevate the combat and reinforce the brutality of nature, it thrives"
4/5 – Examiner: "Far Cry Primal is an unexpected but wholly welcome entry to the series, and serves as an example of something you didn't see coming, but can't see yourself without"
4/5 – Digital Spy: "It feels like Far Cry Primal is a refresh of the series that we didn't know it needed. Basic combat makes you think more about your approach, while the addition of animals makes you feel powerful"
7.9 – IGN: "Far Cry Primal comes to the table with a quiver of neat ideas but it forgot to bring much of a story with it"
7/10 – The Metro: "The prehistoric setting adds little to the Far Cry formula, while taking away several key features – even if the overall experience is still enjoyable"
7.0 – EGM: "Far Cry Primal really wants you to know that there are tons of things you can do in its prehistoric, open world. Unfortunately, you may not want to do any of them"
7/10 – Destructoid: "In some ways, Far Cry Primal is a breath of fresh air, but the methods it uses to shake things up are largely superficial or ancillary. There's a dissonance between what is new and what is not"
7/10 – VideoGamer: "Far Cry Primal is a very fun video game (which sounds like a sentence a child would write), but it is a video game you've played before"
3.5/5 – GamesRadar: "Lacking a map-editor, co-op, and charismatic central villain, Primal sacrifices its forebears' 'big event' status, but this back-to-basics approach makes for an all-natural off-the-reservation romp"
3/5 – Giant Bomb: "There's nothing inherently wrong with Primal, and I found the game's combat systems to be pretty exciting at times, but the structure of the game and most of the tasks you're given are one-note"


New levels, new mode, new character and more!
Today, Super Mario Run has received a rather hefty update on iOS and Android devices. This update adds Remix 10, World Star, playable Princess Daisy and more, yet smaller surprises.
The highlight feature in this update is Remix 10. In this mode, you play through 10 extremely short levels in a row to eventually find, and then play as, Daisy. During this mode, you will be collecting rainbow star coins, switching characters at random, and obtain decorations for your kingdom. All of this while listening to a crazy medley of various Super Mario level themes.
Super Mario Run's new update also included World Star, a 9 level pack with special levels that have to be unlocked through certain criteria such as clearing World 4-2 without defeating a single goomba.
Finally, there have been a few small changes to the game such as a music mode where you can listen to music from your device. Characters that originally didn't shrink when hit such as Yoshi and Peach have now been given an extra hit and a new shrunken sprite.
To celebrate the launch of this update, the full Super Mario Run game will be on sale for $5 from now until October 12th, 2017.

Q: Why this code is not showing the background image? My HTML code-
 <html>
 <head>
 <style type="text/css">
 {
 /*for setting background image*/
 background-image: url('C:/Users/SONY/Desktop/CSS/images.jpg');
 background-attachment: fixed
 }
 </style>
 </head>
 </html>

This code is for setting the background image. But it's not showing the
result. I've not created two files. Like one for CSS and another HTML file.
I've compiled both the files into one.
Why am I not able to see the background image? Despite giving the
correct path for the URL.

A: You need to specify the element for which want to give particular CSS properties like html, body, .class, #id.
body {
   /*for setting background image*/
   background-image: url('http://lorempixel.com/400/200/sports/1/');
   background-attachment: fixed
}

Here is the link of working fiddle.

A: You are applying background image to none of the class/id or any html tags like html, body etc. either you need to add a class or id or need to apply style to the inbuilt tags. you can try this
  <html>
   <head>
   <style type="text/css">
   html{
   /*for setting background image*/
   background-image: url('C:/Users/SONY/Desktop/CSS/images.jpg');
   background-attachment: fixed;
   }
   </style>
   </head>
   </html>

Hope this helps.

A: I think your code under css folder, so the line should be :
background-image: url('images.jpg');

A: Use this style in your code. If want to pick image from local computer.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

<head>
    <style type="text/css">
        html {
            background-image: url(./images.jpg);

        }

3. That the local amendment does not reference a different edition of the national fire codes or other national standard than the edition provided or referenced in the uniform or minimum firesafety codes adopted by the State Fire Marshal or prescribed by statute.
(b) Any local amendment to the Florida Fire Prevention Code adopted by a local government shall be effective only until the adoption of the new edition of the Florida Fire Prevention Code, which shall be every third year. At such time, the State Fire Marshal shall adopt such amendment as part of the Florida Fire Prevention Code or rescind the amendment. The State Fire Marshal shall immediately notify the respective local government of the rescission of the amendment and the reason for the rescission.

(c) The local authority has adopted, by ordinance, a growth management plan that requires buildings and structures to be equipped with more stringent firesafety requirements required by the local amendment when these firesafety requirements are used as the basis for planning infrastructure development, uses, or housing densities.
Except as provided in s. 633.022, the local appeals process shall be the venue if there is a dispute between parties affected by the provisions of the more stringent local firesafety amendment adopted as part of the Florida Fire Prevention Code pursuant to the authority in this subsection. Local amendments adopted pursuant to this subsection shall be deemed local or regional variations and published as such in the Florida Fire Prevention Code. The act of publishing locally adopted firesafety amendments to the Florida Fire Prevention Code shall not be construed to mean that the State Fire Marshal approves or denies the authenticity or appropriateness of the locally adopted firesafety provision, and the burden of protecting the local fire safety amendment remains solely with the adopting local governmental authority.
(11) The design of interior stairways within dwelling units, including stair tread width and riser height, landings, handrails, and guards, must be consistent with chapter 10 of the Florida Building Code.
(12) Notwithstanding other provisions of this section, the State Fire Marshal shall study the use of managed, facilities-based, voice-over-Internet-protocol telephone service for monitoring fire alarm signals.

Telegraph Sport's daily digest from the summer Games.
Operators of the zip-wire at Victoria Park have concluded their investigations into how Boris Johnson, the Mayor of London, ended up dangling in mid-air last week when the apparatus jammed.
Johnson thought someone had applied a brake but it turns out that the calibration of the equipment had not been quite right for Johnson's weight. How the correct weight was not provided is anyone's guess.
The British Olympics Association is fine-tuning the route of the victory parade for Team GB Olympians and Paralympians on Sept 10. It is likely to start at Guildhall and wind its way down to The Mall. Do not rule out a reception at Buckingham Palace.
The Queen, who was the unexpected star of the opening ceremony, is tipped to formally thank athletes for their hard work. Gold medallists are expected to be invited to 10 Downing Street.
There may have been doubts about the country's enthusiasm ahead of the Games but there can be no mistaking the noise coming from home supporters. Several athletes, including the silver medal winning eventing team and Alistair Brownlee, the triathlete champion, have said it is impossible to hear stopwatches or rivals while competing.
The volume at the ExCel for the women's boxing reached 113.7 decibels, louder than a car horn. But the biggest roar was saved for the lionhearted Sir Chris Hoy in the velodrome, where the noise reached 120 decibels.
Locog's branding police might take an interest in footage of Steve Cram clearly showing his Nike trainers on BBC One. adidas, the official Games sponsor, is not impressed. Nike named a shoe after Cram.

Many marketers are still concerned about how to reach their target groups on the mobile web, and the next big turning point is already in sight: voice search and voice assistants. The short, purposeful interactions with Alexa, Siri and so on hardly leave any room for advertising messages. On top of this, many conversations do not require a display.
SEO in times of voice search
Search engine optimization in this world means delivering the best responses. Google's assistant doesn't want to return the famous "ten blue links" as a result, but correct, understandable and helpful information.
So it is no coincidence that Google's search results pages have been transforming more and more into response pages in recent years. Often you don't even need to click on a website at all. The "Knowledge Graph", for example, provides information about people, places or institutions. The "Featured Snippet", on the other hand, presents the response to a question right at the top of the results page.
Google is not yet smart enough today to formulate such responses itself. Therefore, pages with frequently asked questions and the answers to these ("FAQs") are a useful tip for gaining the edge here. Backlinko has shown, for example, that Google likes to draw on such templates.
You don't need to create a separate page for each possible question. Google will find the answers even if they are embedded in a larger text. Rather, it is about keeping such naturally formulated questions and answers in mind when creating content. And every webmaster should address the matter of structured data to make work easier for Google and so on. For example, Google has just initiated a new specification which can be used to mark parts of the text as "speakable".
At the same time, Google's developers are already working on becoming more independent of what they find on the Internet: in a paper, Google describes how they could evaluate different content and provide an automatically generated summary from this.
Marketing for a world without displays
Voice search is already an important element for stores and other local companies. Increasingly, users are demanding results close to them. Here it is important for companies to be present in the relevant directories such as Yelp, which search engines like Google often make use of. It is also important that all essential metadata such as specific location information is stored on your own website in machine-readable form.
However, how advertising content can be integrated into this new world is still an unresolved problem. A mixture of responses and ads is an irritating experience for users. Today, it seems most promising to add features to the assistants – similar to an app. "Skills" can be developed for Alexa. Apple's Siri offers individual "shortcuts" with the next version of iOS. In both cases it's about adding features or making them easier to access. If you already have an app today, you should certainly take a closer look at this. This is particularly useful as a customer loyalty tool, because it is another way of making use of the company's products and services.
Closing remarks and outlook
The voice assistants from Google, Apple and Amazon are still in their infancy today. They haven't had their "iPhone moment" yet, like the mobile Internet a good ten years ago. For example, it was recently revealed that the assistant Alexa isn't really paying off for Amazon yet: only one percent of users have tried to order something from the online department store by voice command. And 90 percent of these users only did that the one time.
However, usage is generally increasing. Mary Meeker's annual Internet Trends Report already established in 2016 that 20 percent of all mobile searches were performed by voice command. ComScore estimates that by 2020 half of all search queries will be made by voice command.

Battlefield 1's monthly updates will end in June
Time to wind down
EA DICE has announced that as of June 2018 Battlefield 1's monthly updates will come to an end.
Writing in a new blog post, DICE content lead Jonas Elfving said that up until June, players can continue to expect the regular content additions as well as changes and bug fixes. That doesn't mean that after June support for the game will just end. It will, however, wind down slightly.
This is to be expected given that Battlefield 1 has been out for around a year and a half. Not only that, the studio is now gearing up for the next game in the franchise, which is rumored to be set in WW2 and called Battlefield V. So, it makes a lot of sense for DICE to start pulling away from Battlefield 1 in preparation.
Marching on
Elfving does finish up his post by entreating players to "keep jumping in to Battlefield 1 regularly", adding that they "don't want to miss what's coming" in the next couple of months.
Already, the Rupture map from the They Shall Not Pass expansion has been made freely available to everyone, with more maps coming in May. A brand new mode called Shock Operations is also due to launch in June.
This mode will support 40 players and will split them into attackers and defenders of sectors. Although this mode sounds similar to Operations mode, it's focused on one single map making it a good alternative for players who don't have the time to play through a full Operations match.
As attention turns away from Battlefield 1, we're expecting to see and hear more from the next Battlefield at E3 2018.

'To the End of the Land' not pleasant, but a…
'To the End of the Land' not pleasant, but a must-read for every president
By Rachel Kapen |
PUBLISHED: February 10, 2012 at 2:45 a.m. | UPDATED: June 17, 2021 at 9:34 a.m.
From a daily briefing I received from Hadassah, a Jewish Women's organization which supports the Hadassah Hospital in Jerusalem, I learned that among the books our president took for his recent vacation reading is "To the End of the Land," a novel by Israeli author David Grossman. This was an English translation of a book which first appeared in its original Hebrew a few years ago under the name, in translation: "A Woman Running away from News." The news to which the title refers to is of the death of a child serving in the army.
Frankly, with all the problems our president has to contend, even on a well-deserved vacation with his family, I doubt very much whether he was able to read this excellent book, but I really wish he would get to it and read it. Although written by an Israeli author and reflecting an Israeli narrative, it can resonate with any parent, in any country, whose child is in harm's way and who is dreading the unfathomable news of the death of his child.
I am not suggesting that our president is not agonizing over every soldier who loses his or her life while fighting on behalf of his country, but he is not a parent who has to send his child to the army, like it is in my native country of Israel, or in the volunteer army like it is in the United States. Reading "To the End of the Land," depicting a mother who rather than receive the unimaginable news that her son was killed decides to leave her home and not be there, in case the dreaded news arrives. As illogical as it must sound, it actually reflects the true emotions of a mother. It so happens that the author himself and his wife were the recipients of this kind of news not long after writing the book.
War is cruel and every attempt has to be made to avert it so parents everywhere won't have to revert to extreme and seemingly illogical action of the woman, the mother, in "To the End of the Land." I wish every leader in every country will read this extremely insightful book and be impacted by it and perhaps some wars could be prevented and parents won't lose their children as the author of the book did.

When it comes to organic food versus non-organic food, one of the most important questions that most diet-enthusiasts and food curious people want to ask is how to tell the difference. In other words, how to identify or differentiate organic food from the conventional food?
Frankly and honestly speaking, there's really no way to tell the difference between organic food and the conventional food we are forced to rely on the people selling us the food to be truthful. Luckily for us however, there is hope in the form of labelling which tells us which foods are organic and which foods aren't. In the USA, the USDA requires farms which are organic to follow a strict set of guidelines to be certified as organic.
Over and above this legislation, there are private organic farmers associations which have their own brand of certification as well. And the common factor among all of these is the fact that besides the certification, they also have seals with which they stamp foods and food products.
When it comes to the identification of organic food versus non-organic food, one of the easiest methods is of "labelling" or ingredients' profile. So, if you don't feel too comfortable about going over to your nearest farmers market to get your organic produce, you can always check out the labels in your grocery store. If any of the foods deemed organic in the store carry one of the many organic certified seals and labels you can be assured that it has been organically produced. The one thing that you might want to look out for, however, is exactly what the labels say. As ever, although there is certification and labelling stating that the food you buy is organic, there are different levels of organic. This is the case not for the fruits and the vegetables which you buy fresh from the store, but the case for the many processed and pre-packaged organic foods which tend to have more than one ingredient.
Therefore, although you might believe product you're getting is fully 100% organic guaranteed, you might want to check again on what the label says to get the real story. If you take packaged organic foods, the labelling would consist of not only the seal stating that it is made from organic produce but also a few key words which will tell you exactly how much organic foods are in the package, if only you know how to understand what they are telling you.
