Everon is een Duitse progressieve-rockband waarvan hun eerste album uitkwam in 1993. De leden van de band zijn:
 Christian Moos, (Moschus), drums, percussie
 Oliver Philipps, zang, gitaar, piano, keyboards
 Schymy, basgitaar
 Ulli Hoever, gitaar

Everon combineert een sterke elektronische synthesizer georiënteerde muziek met agressieve jankende gitaren. Ondanks dat er ook invloeden zijn van Europese klassieke muziek kan de muziek het best omschreven worden als een mix van progressieve rock en progressieve metal.

Biografie
De groep is geformeerd door Ralf Janssen (gitaar) in 1989 samen met Christian Moos (drums) en Schymy (basgitaar), die enkele jaren hebben met zijn drieën hebben samengespeeld. De band Everon werd pas compleet toen Oliver Philipps, de voormalige zanger van Jester's Palace, erbij kwam. Hun eerste album Paradoxes kwam uit in 1993 en was song-georiënteerde progressieve rock a la Marillion en Rush. Dit album is geproduceerd door EROC (ex-drummer van Grobschnitt), die ook Flood in 1995 produceerde, met iets steviger werk, gevarieerd met zachtere nummers met keyboards. Daarna ging hun platenlabel SI Music failliet, waarna Venus bij een ander label uitkwam in 1997. In 1998 verliet Janssen de band en werd hij opgevolgd door Ulli Hoever, waarna Fantasma in 2000 uitkwam, nog steviger dan de voorgaande albums (progmetal a la Savatage). Omdat alle bandleden naast hun Everon-werk ook een gewone baan hebben is de frequentie van nieuwe albums niet erg groot. Oliver Philipps speelt ook in Serenity, een Progressieve Metal groep uit Tirol (Oostenrijk).

Genre
Everon is beïnvloed door Rush, Saga en Pallas. Het album North wordt tot de neoprog gerekend. De muziek leunt aan tegen de Progmetal waarbij een naam als Dream Theater vaak als referentie wordt genoemd.

MITCH DANIELS: The values learned on the farm are important for all

Editorial: We need a charging network to accommodate electric vehicles
Along with the rise of women and the expansion of civil rights, the most important social transformation of America's first quarter-millennium has been the triumph of modern agriculture over the famine and ceaseless, backbreaking effort simply to feed one's self that had been the dominant fact of human life throughout history. Most of those who preceded us lived their entire lives on the farm. A little more than a century ago, a third of all Americans were farmers.
Successive revolutions in mechanization, horticulture and biotechnology have been an enormous blessing, enabling a tiny percentage of Americans—today fewer than 2%—to feed the rest of us and much of the world. Incalculable human talent has been liberated to invent all the other miracles we enjoy. We spend less of our income on food than any society ever.
But this blessing, like most, is not an unmixed one. Other valuable talents, and much precious social capital, have diminished with the share of Americans living and working on the land.
During a decade in elected office in Indiana, I made it my practice while traveling the state to stay overnight in Hoosier homes rather than hotels. Because of geography and, candidly, personal choice, probably a third of those 125 overnights were with farm families. There I witnessed virtues that one sees too rarely these days—hard work, practical manual skill, a communitarian ethic—woven tightly into the fabric of everyday life.

I saw teenagers and even younger siblings rising at 5 a.m. to feed animals or do other chores before cleaning up and heading to school. It was fun to return home and tell those stories to four suburban daughters whose idea of a tough assignment was clearing the table and washing the dishes.
At county fairs, I would always ask that the 4-H officers be the ones to take me around. Every one of those young people had raised animals for competition, and they showed me projects—artistic, scientific or community service—with the special pride that comes from creative, arduous individual effort.
After shooting the breeze with some Future Farmers of America members in their northwest Indiana town, I was musing to a local friend about what fine characters and purposeful attitudes farm kids seem to have. "Absolutely," she said. "Our circuit judge has been on the bench here for 20-plus years. Once I asked him, in all that time, how many FFA or 4-H members have come before you? He said, 'Uh, none I can remember.'"
At the Gerber family's farmhouse near Boston, Ind., (population 130), I learned about the year that Doug, the father, was hit and nearly killed by a train while trying to clear storm debris off a railroad crossing. He said that when he returned home after weeks in a coma, the first thing he saw was his neighbors sowing his crops and feeding his livestock so that his family would have income that year. "They wouldn't even let me pay for the diesel fuel," he recalled.
At the Indiana State Fair, held on grounds now surrounded by inner-city Indianapolis neighborhoods, urban kids can witness, in person, the birth of pigs and calves. Once I asked a boy who had arrived at the fair on a school bus from across town, "Do you know where milk comes from?" He said, "Sure. The grocery store." A couple of hours later, he knew better and just maybe had a little sense of awe and gratitude for the work and skill it takes to fill that grocery store.
Thomas Jefferson believed that democracy could work only in a society of agrarian yeomen, living in small political units, who would be invested in their society and resolute in defending their liberty against the encroachments of government. We'd better hope he was wrong or, to the extent that he was on to something, that we can recognize and preserve the characteristics that make yeomen (and women) such good citizens.
The cultural fiber that an agricultural upbringing once brought to society will of course not return through numbers. But there are ways other than state fairs to expose modern young people to its value and its virtues. One-third of today's 4-H members now live in urban areas. Summer jobs detasseling corn or baling hay are still occasionally available as an alternative to Fortnite practice or soccer camp. In their constant quest for diversity, universities should not overlook the benefits that rural students can bring to their big-city and suburban classmates.
The distance that has opened between the producers of our food and the beneficiaries of their hard work, and between rural and urban Americans in general, has been sadly apparent in our politics and popular culture. More than tolerance is in order. Some true appreciation, and even some emulation, would be helpful right now. There's a lot to learn down on the farm.
Daniels, a Washington Post contributing columnist, is president of Purdue University and a former governor of Indiana. His column appears monthly in IBJ.

The generosity of spirit that marked the grand opening of the Datuna Art Space in Long Island City was evident the moment we entered. David Datuna founded - and funded - the space, not to sell art, but to give back: to fellow artists and the community at large. This was a sprawling, open yet personal party in a 4,000 square foot former garage overlooking the Hudson that Datuna has reclaimed as his latest big idea. True to David's magnanimous nature, two walls of tables groaned with a panoply of dinners and deserts to feed his 600 guests: foie gras, ceviche, fried fish, chicken, and wild rice salads; cheesecakes to chocolates. It was stunning: At most openings, you're lucky to get cheap wine and a potato chip!

The real burden is on Wilbur Ross, the Commerce Secretary, to explain why such a dramatic change is worth the risk.
On Monday, the Department of Commerce announced that it was adding a citizenship question to the 2020 census. According to the Trump Administration, this step is "necessary for the Department of Justice to protect voters." The Justice Department had requested the change in December, on the grounds that it needed to better enforce Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, which is designed to prevent violations of voting rights. It was an odd claim: in 2013, when the Supreme Court struck down part of the Voting Rights Act, Attorney General Jeff Sessions, then a senator from Alabama, called the decision "good news . . . for the South." A raft of state voter-suppression laws targeting minority voters followed, including in Texas, which passed a voter-I.D. law that a federal judge later found to be racially discriminatory. During the Obama Administration, the federal government filed a lawsuit against the state, but last year Sessions decided to drop it. "The idea that this question is being added to the census to protect minority voting rights so that the lines can be redrawn in a fair way is just too absurd to be believed," Rick Hasen, an election-law expert at the University of California, Irvine, told me.
This week's announcement caused an immediate outcry. Six former heads of the Census Bureau wrote to Wilbur Ross, the Commerce Secretary, registering their "deep concern," and twelve states, including California and New York, said that they plan to sue the federal government over the move. Adding the citizenship question, Eric Schneiderman, the New York Attorney General, said, "will create an environment of fear and distrust in immigrant communities that would make impossible both an accurate census and the fair distribution of federal tax dollars." He was reiterating a point that's been made, repeatedly, by demographers, civil-rights advocates, and current and former government officials. Last November, a researcher at the Census Bureau named Mikelyn Meyers reported that there was an "unprecedented ground swell in confidentiality and data-sharing concerns among immigrants or those who live with immigrants." In a presentation before the bureau's National Advisory Committee, she described the panicked responses of immigrants who were afraid to answer survey questions in the current political climate, due to fears about deportation. "This behavior was an extreme departure from behavior that we have seen in the past," she said. "This seems to be related to questions of legal residency or the perception that certain groups are not welcome." By adding a citizen question to the census, the federal government may scare off residents from participating, and thus alter the results; that, in turn, could short-change future federal funding, and, if it caused district lines to be redrawn, cost Democrats congressional seats.
Ross, in his announcement, claimed that there was no solid evidence that the response rate would drop under the newly adopted policy, but the real burden is on him to explain why such a dramatic change is worth the risk. "When you do this once every ten years, for three hundred and forty million people, you've got to get it right," one demographer told the Times. The last time the government asked whether respondents were citizens was in 1950. The question has come up since then, but only as part of a canvas called the American Community Survey, which is conducted on a rolling basis and has a smaller sample size. The results of this survey are widely seen as being sufficient to account for both the immigrant and the voting populations. "The courts are not complaining there's a data problem," Hasen told me.
So, who is complaining? One person seems to be John Gore, the acting head of the civil-rights division of the Justice Department. According to an investigation by ProPublica, late last year Gore drafted a proposal to add the citizenship question to the census. An attorney formerly with the firm Jones Day, Gore has been involved in Republican redistricting efforts for years in states such as Virginia, South Carolina, Florida, and New York. He has also defended Republican-backed voter-I.D. laws, including one effort, in 2012, to purge the Florida voting rolls of non-citizens, which had the effect of cancelling the registrations of some eligible voters, who were assumed to be foreign. An analysis conducted by the Miami Herald found that "Hispanic, Democrat, and independent-minded voters are the most likely to be targeted in a state hunt to remove thousands of non-citizens," whereas "whites and Republicans are disproportionately the least likely to face the threat of removal." The justification usually given for such measures is that ineligible voters might otherwise cast ballots illegally to sway the outcome of elections. Researchers and academics have categorically refuted these claims, and several state Republican officials have even admitted to drumming up the specter of voter fraud as a way to gain an edge over Democrats.
President Donald Trump has taken up the argument for a combination of personal and political reasons. After he lost the popular vote, in 2016, he claimed that three to four million undocumented immigrants had voted for Hillary Clinton. ("I won the popular vote if you deduct the millions of people who voted illegally," he tweeted.) Once in office, to lend credence to his claims of mass voter fraud, Trump created the Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity, naming Vice-President Mike Pence and Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach to head it. It disbanded in January, having proved nothing.
In the meantime, Republican officials sought to make examples of immigrants who had voted illegally, even if they'd done so unknowingly. Last year, in Texas, a thirty-nine-year-old mother of four from Mexico, who had voted in 2012 and 2014—because, as a green-card holder, she thought she could—was sentenced to eight years in prison; if her legal appeal fails, she will be deported after serving her time. In Kansas, a Peruvian mother of three who also had a green card voted in a local school-board election more than a decade ago, without realizing that she was not allowed to, and was deported after years of court battles. Isolated examples like these were supposed to be the "tip of the iceberg," in the words of Kris Kobach, who has staked his career on devising onerous voter-I.D. requirements to combat a nonexistent problem. Earlier this month he was in federal court, in Kansas, defending himself against a lawsuit brought by the American Civil Liberties Union on behalf of the League of Women Voters and five Kansas voters. The groups argued that a 2011 law that he enforced in the state, which required that voters show proof of citizenship, may have cost up to thirty-five thousand eligible voters their ability to cast ballots in local, state, and federal races. A verdict is expected next month, but the trial was a disaster for Kobach, who presented questionable statistics and relied on cartoonishly incompetent experts.
What's ultimately most striking about the Trump Administration's efforts to retool the census is the transparency of its motives. They aren't just political but existential. The new census question marks a return to a policy from the middle part of the twentieth century, which is roughly where the Administration's immigration policies are designed to take us, too. For the first time in decades, an American President wants to halve the number of immigrants who come to this country legally each year. The model that Trump and his advisers seem to have in mind is that of the period prior to 1965, when immigration laws expanded to admit more immigrants from an increasingly diverse range of non-European countries. Since then, tens of millions of people have come to the United States to join the work force and start families. Their children (and their grandchildren) are citizens, who study in local schools and depend on local, state, and federal resources. There's no more obvious sign of disdain for these lives than to accept that, when the government takes stock of who counts in the United States, they may not be included.

Consumers Vote Volt No. 1 At Edmunds.com
In addition to being one of the nation's premier resources for online vehicle research, Edmunds.com also provides a key opportunity for owners themselves to review their vehicles, creating a unique—and important—measure of quality from consumers who know those vehicles best. And this year, it was the Chevrolet Volt that came out on top of its class in the website's 2011 Consumers' Top Rated vehicles list, besting all other vehicles in the "Hybrid" segment. (Note: As Edmunds.com admits, the Volt "isn't really a hybrid like the Toyota Prius," but the site didn't have another category in which to put the unique Chevy!)
Comments from new Chevy Volt drivers included:
"I have owned my Volt since mid-March, and have used exactly 20 gallons of gas over 3,100 miles. I also own a Prius and feel that the Volt, though a bit smaller, is a big leap forward over that fine car. The Volt is quicker, handles better, is quieter, has much lower operating cost/mile (I pay only $0.10 per kWh), and has been totally glitch-free. It's an astonishing achievement."
"The Volt is my first American car, ever. I currently also have a VW and SAAB. The ride and handling to me are very much like a European vehicle. The fit and finish are impressive. This is an extremely well-thought-out vehicle."
"My Volt is incredible. My lifetime mpg is 112 and rising. I've driven over 1,000 miles without any gas. I didn't buy any gas the first month I owed it. It has a sport mode that makes it fun and sporty to drive with speed to jerk your head back. It's as powerful as a V6. I'm loving it.
"The car, the concept, everything about it is game changing. My other car is a CTS-V and it has been parked ever since I got the Volt. Saving gas $$ is not my objective—using the cutting-edge technology and proving it in everyday use is the fun part."
"The Volt is absolutely the best car I've ever driven. It's quick, nimble, stylish, and simply incomparable from a technology standpoint."
"Now in my second month and still have not used more than 2 gallons of gas. The car is surprisingly responsive, feels solid and has had no bugs, defects or annoyances that sometimes accompany new purchases. My average battery range is about 42 miles, but with the range-extending on-board generator, there is no anxiety whatsoever about 'getting there.' Moving from my prior Mercedes S 430, I find the Volt to be a remarkably well-engineered product."
Perhaps even more remarkable: When the 2012 Volt goes on sale later this year, it will have a starting price that's more than $1,000 below that of the 2011 base model. Showcasing an MSRP that begins at $39,995, and a net cost to consumers of just $32,495 (after a full $7,500 federal tax credit).

Cracking Adobe Photoshop is not as straightforward as installing it. It requires a few steps to bypass the security measures that are in place. First, you must obtain a cracked version of the software from a trusted source. Then, you must disable all security measures, such as antivirus and firewall protection. After this, you need to open the crack file and follow the instructions on how to patch the software. Once the patching process is complete, the software is cracked and ready to use.
Adobe Creative Cloud has always been about not just increasing the potential of the user, but also of the photographer. CMYK support and the new support for JPEG XR gave us more options for creative control and the power to work in various color spaces, but the more I use Creative Cloud, the more I appreciate and see the use cases for RAW and JPEG.
I've been taking some old slides from a series of photos where I was shooting in the RAW format, and then converting to JPEG and TIFF to create an ivory white. There is something that takes a straight white and still manages to look authentic. It's hard to find a color that captures and represents the true white of the image. I realized that I was using #FFFFFF in Preview and noticed that the Render Preview window had no such color. This seemed the obvious tool to use to adjust:
After that, I just went straight into ACR and set up my white board. I can't just stick my light off on the wall and get the true ivory, so I had to deal with getting this to happen on a computer. I did some research on how to get flat white with the ProPhotoRGB color profile:
Photoshop CS6 is the flagship of their creative software and is one of my favorite applications in the whole world. I've been using Photoshop for over a decade and a half now. I've purchased a lot of hardware along the way, coping my workflow into hard drive space, RAM, storage, etc. It really sucks to be so damned lucky to get such a great piece of creative software for such a low price, only to find out the new version hasn't necessarily scaled that well. I'm sure other creatives will have similar complaints.

Cardboard sort of works. With the new features of Elements, you can achieve photo quality that wouldn't have been possible before. Photo quality, you ask? Yes, the results are indeed visually impressive and impressive when you get them in the hands of a software set that, for years, has been the go-to for photo editing.
The interface of Photoshop on Windows is good, but not great. It has a tiny problem area—that is, how you use it. It's been a while since it was the Photoshop for Windows. It seems from the pack that the power-user's Photoshop was inevitably superseded with the advent of Mac. The one ingredient that originally set Windows apart from Mac was the developers then that would use "the Mac" (or "the best version of a Mac") mindset, to create the tools that we have today. With Windows 10, the developers have been working to bring a new generation of tools.

Adobe Photoshop users have long enjoyed the advantages of using Adobe Lightroom to organize, manage, and evaluate their photos. Now with Lightroom Collection 2, users can also merge digital images or movies into a single photo project. Collection 2 also provides new media management tools so that you can quickly tag, label, and upload your files to the cloud for backup. You can even organize your files into collections and scenes for easy browsing.
Adobe Lightroom has a popular feature called Merge to Layers that allows you to group your photos into various folders and scenes. Now, you can group clips from different video content into a single project. When you shoot a video, Lightroom will automatically recognize when the clips are contiguous, removing the need to shoot photos between transitions. This means you can create longer, more interesting videos with fewer individual clips.
In Photoshop CC, with some advanced features, you can now combine elements from multiple photos or other files into one file, merging or editing them. You can categorize images and organize them based on their content or by combining them. This feature also allows you to edit multiple files simultaneously. This feature is critical for the new job you are doing.
Photoshop is a powerful image editing software, and is designed to work with photographs. You can use it to edit photos that have been taken with a mobile phone, or any digital camera. With Photoshop, it is possible to turn a digital photograph into a print, a poster, or a home décor item. Photoshop lets you edit, retouch, or improve the photo, making it look more professional than the original. With Photoshop, you can crop, rotate, pick, color, make adjustments, and adjust the color palette.
Adobe has also improved the AI-powered selection tool. The new tool was developed using machine learning to recognize and learn a wide range of elements in images, including shapes, text and objects, as well as recommend similar or related content.
The auto-Hair tool now intelligently detects hair and other facial elements in different sizes for both genders. It also uses the best-fit strategy to intelligently find the right match for people with any hair or facial features.

Adobe Photoshop is a huge player in the industry and provide a lot of powerful features. There are countless articles, tutorials, and best practices that you can check out on their site for even more. Find these at
You may be tempted to learn all there is to know about Photoshop's features in a course, but in reality many of the features in Photoshop are so simple to use, it's best to learn their basic steps and shapes in the order you use them most often. Follow the steps below and you'll be well on your way to creating your first masterpiece.
It was originally developed by Walter S. Liedtke for the purpose of modifying photographs and he published it as a shareware program. The first version of the Photoshop (known as Photoshop 2.0) was produced in 1987. With the addition of the Layer Command, there was a significant time and cost savings by using the layer as an image canvas for a high level of flexibility and recompositing of layers.

"The addition of Share for Review and one-click editing tools set a new bar for convenience in Photoshop," said Garth Clark, vice president of Product Management, Creative Cloud. "Adobe is committed to work with top photographers and designers to create the best Photoshop experience possible. We want to make sure all our features make you more productive every day, and these features will help you get the most out of Photoshop and Photoshop Elements for your personal home and professional editing requirements."
The new features are available to existing Photoshop customers and the public in the Apple App Store. As part of the Photoshop on the Web Initiative, Adobe is continuing to enable users to edit their images anytime, anywhere, using any device.
"The introduction of these new features is all about helping users explore creative possibilities," said Tim Wescott, Adobe vice president of Creative Technology. "We are putting the power of creativity into the digital hands of all users — no matter where they are."
Share for Review A sharing application within the Photoshop file editor, Share for Review opens your most recently modified images in Photoshop for editing. You can even use a pre-existing document or a Photoshop file as your canvas. This means you can easily collaborate on projects without leaving the application. For example, you can work with the designer on a design concept and quickly switch back and forth to show the client what you created. When the project is complete, you can share the file with the designer to ensure you both have the best quality results. The Share for Review application is available in the Mac App Store, and as a beta application for Windows.
Adobe's new Content Aware Fill is a dynamic, intelligent, and superior non-destructive alternative for masking, even for objects that blur when using layers for masks. This includes skin, hair, feathers, meshes, clouds, and more. This new feature is more than a replacement for the skills to mask and composite layers. It essentially allows you to create content-aware masks and shapes with minimal touch.
Creating a mask by setting a specific point on an image, or at a corner or edge is not new, and it still works. However, Adobe has made the process much easier with this new Content Aware Fill feature.
When using Digital Asset Exchange (DAE), the latest version of Photoshop and Bridge can now synchronize your metadata and salt and pepper at once so you can share and collaborate on content. Additionally, with Bridge, it has improved the search feature to find related content easier. Preview and document coherency is maintained when exporting files from a linked project, and there is reduced loss of efficiency so you can share files without the chance of delayed rendering. This new collaborative feature is a key force in making sure that your Digital Asset has a positive workflow at end user level.
One new enhancement in Photoshop's user interface is that the life history of the document is now persisting, and is highlighted in the sidebar. This feature allows you to go back, and review what you worked on for a particular document, so you can easily reference and locate any element within that document. Using the Life History sidebar will allow you to save documents and workspaces for specific purposes only, along with providing a history of changes for a document.

Adobe announced that Autodesk, Inc. and Adobe are collaborating to bring the Autodesk Exchange to the Adobe Creative Suite platform. With this new feature, developers can now build interactive features and applications with the web-based, code-free and often free Autodesk Exchange, expanding the application programming interface (API) to provide even greater opportunities for applications that were previously out of reach.
Photoshop CC and Photoshop CC subscribers can now save and use presets for their Sketch and Dimension tools, which makes it easier to return to your favorite settings for consistent results. As part of the new update, Photoshop CC subscribers can also rotate, mirror, flip and crop layers with the tap of a finger. Additionally, Photoshop has a Photo Presets pane lets users automatically adjust things like exposure, white balance and shadows / highlights.
Users of Photoshop on macOS, iOS, or Android devices can now minimize the app and take a photo directly to the cloud using the new Capture button. Users can also bring photos into Photoshop all at once by the use of the new batching feature. These new features are available as a free update to all existing CC and CC subscription users.
Photoshop is also adding the ability to edit interactive web and mobile sites in the new Scenes panel. Users can create and customize four interactive web panels, and easily crop, rotate, mirror and more on mobile devices.
Adobe is releasing a second major software update for Photoshop CC, which boasts new features that make it easier to manipulate photo-realistic images and animate them, and gives users more control over output.
The design tools platform known as Adobe XD has been around for two years now and is increasing the design workflow not only for designers working in a team, but also for those working alone. So if you've picked up PhotoFlow, or Pixlr Smugmug has announced some new features in Pixlr.com for all AI Livelovers.
The major shortcoming of sRGB is that it's missing the full gamut of the color space you're creating. The solution is to convert an image to a wider color space at the highest quality possible, using an Adobe type product, or third party software.
In this next generation of Photoshop, we are offering a new workflow that will give designers a new tool for designing, as well as a new vision and direction. For those who like the concept of Photoshop's leading now, it's time to think again:
A large part of the problem with the current approach is that designers are looking for the perfect balance between functionality and workflow. Of course, this is no easy task, and it's something we as product designers need to be aware of, but it's just not realistic to expect that every user's workflow is going to be the same, especially when working from home or traveling for work.
It is one of the most powerful and widely used image editing app, which used by designers, photographers, and web developers. Though it is available for Windows, Mac and Linux, it is available for only the latter two OS.

The magnetic property of a natually-formed magnic can either be permanent or temporary. Permanent magnet are also called hard magnets. Their magnetic property can be retained forever and that is why they are called "hard magnets". Temporary magnets are magnetized temporarily and can only create magnetic fields when they are under the influence of a hard magnet's field, but they can retain its magnetic property for a short period of time after leaving the magnetic field of a hard magnet. They can be easily demagnetized. Based on this property, we can magnetize and demagnetize screw drivers based on our needs.
Another type of magnet is electromagnets. Its magnetic property is caused by electricity. And that is why we hear terms like electromagnetic field. Electromagnets are extremely useful. We use them in motors, computer hard drives, speakers, and many devices in hospital. Besides these, there are many other uses of electromagnets. We use electromagnets because its magnetic property is easy to control. The strength of electromagnets can be controlled by the number of coils and strength of current.

Chef Mike Sheerin of Fine-Dining Fame Opens Fast-Casual Concept
After weathering several months of delays, classically trained Chicago chef Mike Sheerin, and business partner Aaron DiMaria, a self-proclaimed locavore with 20 years of restaurant operations management experience, have opened PACKED, a fast-casual restaurant in Chicago's Hyde Park neighborhood.
Chef Sheerin, executive chef of Embeya and formerly with Lutèce, Atlas, Jean-Georges, WD-50, Blackbird, Trenchermen, and Cicchetti, is widely known for transforming the traditional into the delightfully unexpected, which is the expectation as he takes his high-end kitchen talents to the fast-casual realm. At PACKED, a seasonal menu of dumplings will rotate on a monthly basis and diverge from the classic Asian style that usually comes to mind. Over 90 percent of the seasonal menu's local ingredients are organic, while the few non-organic ingredients are non-GMO.
"I've been blessed with a continued career in full-service restaurants that have been unbelievably kind to me. With PACKED, I was presented with an opportunity that allows me to use my 'cooking life' experiences to further broaden my horizons as a chef in the ever-changing and exciting fast-casual portion of the foodservice industry," Chef Sheerin says. "We're having a lot of fun learning what we can do with dumplings, and we've fallen in love with our nook of the Hyde Park neighborhood."
Crafted with ingredients sourced from Chicago's corner of the Great Lakes region, the dumpling menu's selections rotate monthly and include options such as Pastrami with pumpernickel, beer-braised onion, pickled green tomatoes and violet mustard, as well as the vegetarian-friendly Butternut: a squash dumpling with sage, lady apples, a curry wrapper, and balsamic caramel. The menu also includes a section with soup dumplings such as the Posole with braised pork shoulder, pasilla peppers, and hominy, as well as a section of sweet dumplings, such as a Banana dumpling with chocolate, Brazil nuts, nori-peanut butter, and whipped cream.
A significant part of the space pays tribute to PACKED's sustainable ethos with a visual nod to the farmers who supply the restaurant's responsibly sourced ingredients. The counter-service eatery also uses compostable service-ware, and features a to-go window to accommodate guests looking for a faster, more casual dining option.
"I think the beauty of PACKED is the fact that we're taking the high caliber of Mike Sheerin's cooking and making it casual enough that people can come in to enjoy it on a regular basis," partner Aaron DiMaria says.

Thank you for contacting me about the Open University's use of a restricted countries list in its application process.
The Open University is an autonomous institution and it is for them to make decisions about how best to meet the needs of their students and structure their workforce. As such, I know that the Secretary of State has not held any meetings with the Open University regarding its use of a restricted countries list in its application process. I welcome, however, that higher education institutions are responsible for meeting their legal obligations under the Equality Act 2010. I know the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) is investigating whether the Open University is in breach of the Equality Act 2010 and I will continue to follow this matter closely.
The UK welcomes international students and I am encouraged that the number of international students studying at UK universities is at a record high - there were over 170,000 entrants to UK higher education institutions for the sixth year running. The latest Home Office data shows that university-sponsored visa applications have increased by around 11 per cent since 2011.

In the north broad acceptance of slavery evaporates quickly after Patriots demand that all men are born basic rights to liberty. Even in the north, slavery would not end for many more years though.
In the south, where slave are much more critical to the economy, colonists prove unwilling to bend on the issue. Many in the deep south support the Patriot movement out of concern that Parliament might someday try to emanciapte slaves in the British colonies.

Main difference is that casting to wrong type throw an exception and an "as" keyword just return null. So if I would like to search specified type in VisualTree I can use "as" keyword and check is object not null or I can use "is" keyword. But when I would like to take not reference object like generics KeyValuePair from object type I will have to use casting to unpack the value type. This is because value types do not inherit from object so they are not objects and cannot use keyword as.

That's something of a trick question. While there's no question that certain websites are literal conversion machines, true optimization is technically impossible. The most effective marketers continue to refine, improve, test, and iterate to infinity.
Are your website's current conversion rates due to a failure to simplify your design? Is it a matter of load time optimization, or is it another factor? Implementing A/B testing is the most measurable way of identify exactly what your site needs to convert and why. This is simple using a marketing software or one with focused testing functionalities, like HubSpot or Unbounce.
Every page on your website needs to have a single strategy objective. That's not to say you can't have multiple calls-to-action on certain site pages, such as your homepage. However, each page on your site should have a primary conversion objective. It might be downloading an eBook, signing up for a free trial, or subscribing to your blog.
Selecting a focused conversion purpose allows you to optimize your page around a single CTA, and direct the visitor to engaging in that single action.
If your loyal customers visit your website, using marketing software with personalization capabilities allows you to greet them by name. For first-time visitors, welcome them by source such as "LinkedIn." Too much personalization can be disturbing, but just enough shows your visitors that you're paying attention and care.
Your chances of conversion - and creating sticky pages - are much lower if your pages carry clear intent. A user should never be confused whether they've clicked on a list of your brand's content resources or blog, or whether you're offering a free 30-day trial or reduced rate on their first three months of service.
Pages with a clear purpose often have an exceptionally descriptive header tag, concise text, and design that directs towards a single call-to-action button.
One of the simplest ways to optimize for conversions is to eliminate the navigation bar from each and everyone of your landing pages. This conversion best practice is recommended and implemented by many marketing experts, including the team at HubSpot and Chris Brogan.
Does your site include the official logo of your payment gateway? Logos in the footer to show your visitors that you are BBB-accredited? Have you taken the time to purchase and install an SSL certificate for site security? Trust signals are a critical factor for conversion, especially if your buyer personas are relatively savvy.
Join the 70,000 marketing pros who subscribe to our blog!
You might feel like it's abundantly clear that your landing page is centered around a case study, but your website visitors might not agree. When you take the behavior of today's rushed consumers into account, you'll be even more amazed at just how clear your landing pages need to be.
If you're unsure how effectively you've eliminated ambiguity and showcased your offers on your landing pages, engage in 3rd-party testing. Honest feedback from fresh eyes, especially individuals who can use websites like your ideal customers, is the best litmus test.
When your first-time visitors leave your website, they might not return. Offering a final, parting call-to-action via a popup can be a powerful way to collect any final conversion opportunities that are left on the table. Alternatively, consider special deals and coupons to combat cart abandons or individuals who quit part-way through trial signup processes.
Retargeting is really in it's infancy stages, but there's little question that it's the conversion optimization methodology of the future. It's about personalized content recommendations, much like the algorithm that helped shape Amazon.com into it's current status as an Commerce giant.
When visitors return to your website, offer conversion opportunities, deals, and content offers that are a logical progression from their last interaction with your brand. If they downloaded a whitepaper, perhaps they're ready to read a case study. Individuals who've been engaged for a while and reviewing product comparison sheets might want a consultation with sales. Retargeting allows you to showcase your best and most relevant content opportunities to prospects, exactly when they want to see them.
Have you done any of these intermediate or advanced conversion optimization actions? Why or why not?


Bio: I've been teaching at the elementary level for over 20 years. I've taught grades 1-5, Special Education, Computers, and now I'm a Technology Integration Specialist and an aspiring school administrator. I'm an advocate for STEAM Education and authentic problem-based learning. As for augmented reality, I'm still evolving. I am awed by it, but still relatively new to the phenomena.
Favorite Quiver Resource: Pukeko! The first time I ever even HEARD of augmented reality was at a conference where someone just asked me to color that paper. I had no idea what was about to happen. When the presenter held the iPad over my paper and made my rainbow-colored bird actually come to life, tears literally sprang from my eyes! I'm not kidding. I was so overjoyed and in awe of the technology! I LOVE to give others that same experience!
Moto: Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path – and leave a trail.
What is your Favorite Teaching Moment? To be honest, I seem to have new ones every day.
Why do you use Augmented Reality in your classroom? It is so outrageously engaging and fun for students!
Why did you want to become a Quiver Ambassador? I am absolutely enamored by the power of augmented reality for engaging students and creating such personal interactive experiences. Quiver is the most fun, kid-friendly, easy-to-use app for my elementary students, and I love that the QuiverVision is dedicated to creating educational resources and lesson plans that tie AR to curriculum. I wanted to be an ambassador because I want to learn from and with others who find this all so fascinating, and because I'm driven to find creative implications for using AR to enhance learning.
How do you share Quiver's Resources with other educators? As a technology integration specialist, I teach teachers about ways to infuse purposeful and meaningful technology into their teaching. I do staff development sessions, workshops, presentations in & out of district, and best of all – I do model lessons in class with students so that teachers can see how fun and easy it is to provide these experiences for their students.
Where have you presented? I have demonstrated Quiver as part of a presentation that I have done on Makerspaces and STEAM education. I've presented this at the NJEA Convention, the NJAGC Conference, and at Edcamp Garden State.
This lesson can be done with students as young as kindergarten, but may work better with students in first or 2nd grade after they have learned about primary (red, yellow, blue) and secondary (purple, orange, green). Make sure each child has crayons, pencils, or markers of these colors.
Distribute the QuiverVision Pumpkin coloring page from the Dover Vol.1 coloring pack.
Explain to the students that there are five matching pairs (partners, twins) of pumpkins, and that their task is to find and color each partner pair so that they match exactly.
The teacher will be able to assess visually whether students are able to identify matching pairs by assessing whether each pair was colored in a matching way. Similarly, teacher will be able to visually assess students' understanding of primary and secondary colors.


I like it when I smell a bit of lemon and pepper on those fingers that have just switched off the kitchen light. I am happy when hair rinsed clean by shampoo still gives a hint of herbs and coconut. Or when your neck smells of salt even when you have washed the beach away under the shower. I like it when you hold a man close, and the warmth of his skin lingers deeper than his deodorant. I love the adorable smell that babies have around their mouth that no powder puff can take away. Or when the white lilies in the vase fill up my room with their scent even though they are dying. I like it that with every breath I take, life gives me so many little things to live for.

House and Senate conferees today approved a $445.6 billion budget for the Defense Department and the national security programs of the Energy Department for fiscal 2005, that increases funding for science and technology, establishes a rapid acquisition process and sets a deadline for DOD to submit transition plans to move to Internet Protocol Version 6.
The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2005 will soon go before the full House and Senate for a vote, before it is sent to President Bush to sign.
"A lesson learned from the ongoing global war on terrorism is that DOD's current acquisition system cannot respond in a timely manner to urgent requests for combat equipment by commanders in the battlefield," according to the report. "The goal of the rapid acquisition process is that the time from a combatant commander's request to contract award shall be no more than 15 days."
To that end, conferees approved a plan to allow the Secretary of Defense to waive provisions of law, policies and regulations, research, development and tests, and the solicitation and award process in order to procure equipment when combat casualties have occurred.
In the spending plan, conferees also gave the Defense secretary until March 31 of next year to submit his plans to transition to IPv6 from Internet Protocol version 4. The secretary's plan should outline the networking and security system equipment that will need to be replaced, and the timing and costs of the replacement.
The act also directs the Defense secretary to detail how the current and new networks and security systems will be managed, and submit finished tests and evaluations of how the new protocol faired over the department's networks.
The committee also instructed the Defense secretary to establish a joint program office to improve the interoperability of battlefield management command and control systems.
The goal is for the military to access a common operational picture of the battlefield via a common systems architecture.
$11.2 billion for the DOD science and technology program, including funding for basic research, applied research and advanced technology development. If approved, this would increase the president's budget request for science and technology by more than $500 million.
$4.3 billion for Navy and Air Force development of the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter. This proposal decreases the request by $126 million for the Navy and $134 million for the Air Force.
$1.5 billion to continue development of the high-tech DD(X) surface combatant ships, which marks an increase of $40 million over the request.
$2.9 billion for the Army's Future Combat Systems program, which will include 18 manned and unmanned vehicles connected by a common network. If approved, this decreases the president's budget request by $270 million.
$75 million for space-based radar, a proposal that slashes the budget request by more than $240 million.
$40 million to procure 2,241 movement tracking systems. MTS is a satellite-based communications system currently being used in OIF and OEF to give troops real-time Global Positioning System vehicle tracking and two-way text messaging.
$60.2 million for the Combating Terrorism Technology Support Program, which looks at technologies that may help combat terrorism.

Gta 5 should be made for psvita. players would love to have it on the go and at home they can play online when connected to wifi. I'd bet sony would make thousands in this game was brought to psvita. Some that dont have a ps vita would buy one just to have gta 5 ona handheld.
Make this possible sony and rockstar.
Won't happen. Vita's dead and Rockstar and Take-Two have said GTA Online won't be around for long.
I'd like to see them try and get GTA V down to a small enough size for the Vita without removing half the content.
It doesn't exist, so no you cannot buy it here.


Women! Have you asked your friends yet if you have cancer?
On Monday, I got a call from the ombudsman's office to say they had received their copy of the letter. As we were talking, I mentioned that, in my letter, I had not raised the point that no one ever suggested or did a biopsy of my uterine myoma (reason for the hysterectomy) when it was first detected and that if it had been malignant I'd probably be dead now. (Since I had conflated the symptoms of the myomas – there were several now – with those of menopause, there had been a long delay before the problem was addressed.) I realize malignant myomas are very rare, but if you don't check, how do you know?
My friends are supposed to diagnose my cancer?
A Ouija board? A divining rod?
First, women do not necessarily discuss menopause amongst themselves. For me, it's a private matter I've discussed with very few people, including family. (Are men assumed to discuss prostate problems amongst themselves?) Second, as a foreigner living in another country, the circle of friends with whom I discuss intimate problems is very small. Third, the symptoms for both malignant and non-malignant myomas, as far as I know, may be the same so why would my behavior have been any different?
I answered that I probably would have assumed my symptoms were related to menopause and done nothing. (And there's no reason to think my friends would have come to a different conclusion.) I may be dumber than most women, but that's probably what I would have done.
In fact, it's what I did.
Sometimes we think the U.S. is the only place with bad health care, but your post proves that some of the problems are universal. The human tendency to try to "save face" by making excuses--no matter how absurd--also seems to be universal!
What kills me most was this was the Ombudsman's office - they're "supposed" to be on the side of patients or, at least, give patients the benefit of a doubt. The complaint had nothing to do with her office, yet she apparently felt the need to defend the clinic/hospital and "the system." When you have to convince your advocate of your "rightness," you're in for an uphill battle!
In Sweden, it's very important to show humbleness and humility. There's even an understood guide to change - two steps forward, one step backward. I guess I had not taken my step backward and remained sufficiently humble during our conversation.

A maturação de afinidade (em inglês affinity maturation) é um processo do sistema imunológico de  mamíferos, cujo resultado é a melhora da eficiência da resposta imune em um segundo contato com um antígeno. A maturação de afinidade ocorre em linfócitos B maduros nos centros germinativos dos linfonodos e se baseia no processo de hipermutação somática, com um aumento da taxa mutacional em determinadas partes do DNA nessas células e Seleção clonal. Ela ocorre muito tempo após da recombinação V(D)J, que é responsável pela diversidade "inata" de linfócitos B. O processo natural de maturação de afinidade pode ser executado em condições artificiais através  da melhora de anticorpos recombinantes e fragmentos de anticorpos, sendo então denominado maturação de afinidade in-vitro.

Fisiologia
Após o primeiro contato com antígenos de linfócitos B expressando IgM, a maioria dessas células se diferenciam em plasmócitos responsáveis pela produção de anticorpos do tipo  IgG. Uma outra partem ruma aos centros germinativos dos linfonodos, onde provavelmente ocorrerão diversas mutações nos domínios variáveis das cadeias leve e pesada de imunoglobulina. A taxa de mutação, em comparação com outras células somáticas é até 1.000.000 de vezes aumentada e leva a, em média, uma mutação dentro dos domínios variáveis por geração celular. A enzima " Activation Induced Cytidine Deaminase (AID) possui um papel importante nesse processo. Para a sobrevivência desses linfócitos B mutados é essencial  que seus anticorpos ligados à membrana interajam com  células dendríticas foliculares apresentadoras de antígeno. Dessa forma, as células "competem" entre si e com as responsáveis pela resposta primária. Através desse processo, apenas as com afinidade melhorada pelo antígeno sobrevivem, sobrando apenas uma pequena  população clonal. Após essa seleção, os linfócitos B sobreviventes diferenciam-se em células de memória, que mantém a informação genética do anticorpo mutado e selecionado. Em um novo contato com o antígeno, esses anticorpos otimizados permitirão uma resposta imune humoral mais rápida e eficiente.

Uso biotecnológico
Baseado no processo da maturação de afinidade  In-vivo, desenvolveu-se a maturação de afinidade In-vitro para otimização de anticorpos e fragmentos tecnológicos para uso laboratorial através da biotecnologia.  O modelo de mutação e seleção é usado para aumentar a eficiência. A maturação de afinidade In-vitro  é particularmente importante para anticorpos e fragmentos deles derivados que não passam por  maturação de afinidade in vivo. Entre esses, destacam-se principalmente aqueles selecionados por screening de bibliotecas de anticorpos sintéticos ou "naive"  O princípio pode ser utilizado também para a maturação de afinidade de outras biomoléculas, como anticorpomiméticos.

Para a maturação de afinidade In-vitro são utilizadas técnicas de display, como, por exemplo, o "Phage-Display". Eles se baseiam no fato que, cada anticorpo está ligado diretamente a  uma sequência de DNA codificante.  O DNA codificante pode ser modificado com a técnica de "chain shuffling" ou técnicas de mutação como o uso de radiação beta, agentes mutagênicos químicos ou "Error-prone PCR". Com o uso de técnicas de display par seleção, anticorpos com uma afinidade da ordem de nanomolar pode ser obtida com 2 ou 3 mutações (ou ciclos celulares)

Roland DJ-808 Mixer Review
Roland has been among the best audio brands for almost half a century now. They create various equipment but their DJ gear is what stands out the most. The DJ-808 controller is coming at the respectable fourth place but not because it isn't great but because the top 3 models we reviewed have a slight advantage in some aspects. Still, this is one of the most expensive models we've reviewed and with the such a high price you can expect a huge bump in terms of quality and sound.
Before we dive deeper into its features, make sure to check our Ultimate Buyer's Guide on DJ mixers where you will find which are the top 5 models we chose and learn more about controllers and mixers in general.
Our Verdict: If you're looking for a pro-quality DJ controller, this model by Roland is an excellent choice and one that features a wide variety of customization options and a drum machine that sounds like the real deal. This isn't a model we would recommend for beginners considering the lack of an LCD display screen, the elaborate setup and complex controls, not to mention the poorly written user's manual that leaves beginners and experienced DJs feeling a little lost and left to fend for themselves. For the price, the beginner is better off with a more basic setup, but the pro DJ will appreciate everything this Roland model has to offer. Click to see if it's still available today…
Keep reading to learn more about this leading DJ controller.
The Jog Wheels And Touch Pads
The Drum Machine
Other Interesting Features Of The DJ-808
This DJ controller comes equipped with the following:
Vocal processing and built-in drum sequencing, and a four-channel mixer.
Four integrated Channel FX
Roland TR drum machine
The ability to control the sample via the TR-S sequencer
VT voice transformer
Low latency platters
First, let's briefly talk about the looks. The green-lighted buttons make for a matrix-like feeling which looks absolutely stunning during night time. The jog wheels look professional but we will discuss them in greater detail further down the line. There is a built-in drum machine, 16 pads (8 below each jog wheel) which shine in different colors, a mixer, and tons of other keys which can be customized to your needs. The whole controller weighs 15 pounds which isn't too much but is still a lot compared to other controllers such as the Numark Mixtrack Pro 3.
Every DJ has his own style but more importantly every DJ has a different setup and a different set of equipment. This is something Roland understands and are aiming to help with. The 808 gets an insane amount of expansions and I/Os in it. There are two AIRA link USB ports. You can use them for all the AIRA compatible products you got. There is a DVS-ready audio interface which is good in integrating timecode vinyls into your setup.
In terms of the quality coming out of this audio interface you will be amazed. This is one of the most expensive mixers we reviewed and it sure brings the highest quality with it both in terms of sound and materials.
Unlike most of the jog wheels on today's DJ turntables and controllers the ones on the DJ-808 are quite sturdy and thick. They are regular sized – not too big, not too small. These platters have one of the lowest latencies on today's market (as per our tests). On top of that there is a visual feedback middle part which allows you to know exactly what you're doing at any point. Apart from that and being decent for scratching, there isn't anything further to add to their resume.
Beneath each jog wheel there are eight pads which control tons of functions including:
Your Sampler
The Hot Cue
Cue Looping
Pitch Play
All of these apart from the "TR" and "Pattern" pads are standard for all Serato Pro controllers. The TR lets you trigger drum sounds from your TR-S machine, while the Pattern pad lets you take step sequence patterns that are saved in your directory. Each of these pads is velocity-sensitive and have an RGB customization option to them.
The drum machine isn't something extravagant but it brings a lot of options with it, additionally, it's realistic sound is nothing short of impressive, despite the fact that the setup itself feels a little too basic
At first, it seems like a simple four-voice drum machine which gives you bass, snare and hi-hat voices and also lets you transform these voices along with whatever is playing from your controller. Then you realise that the sequencer can be synced with your music and you can mess as much as you want with the drum voices, as well as mix sounds on the go. This is where you realise you bought a very cool piece of technology.
On top of all that you can also add the Serato DJ Pro 8 slot sampler which will automatically use the sequences you programmed earlier. If you got your own drum voices which you want to use, you can just drop them in the sampler. Then they will be synced with what is playing at the moment.
First of all, as with most high-end DJ controllers you get a free software. In this case it is Serato DJ Pro which is (in our opinion) one of the better DJ softwares today. Everything on this controller is made to work perfectly with Serato. This means that there are buttons and controls for almost everything which exists in the software.
The mixer on this model is one of the best we've used. It has a high quality sound to it and its buttons and knobs feel sturdy. There is no noise to your sound no matter what cables you use or what type of connection you have (USB or outlet).
The "Dual Deck" mode allows you to control your two decks simultaneously without an issue.
As we already mentioned, there is an integrated Voice Transformer which has Formant, Ducking, EQ, and Pitch controls. This is the only controller from our top 5 models that have this feature.
The "Auto Pitch" function works perfectly as well. It matches the vocals of your current track to the key of the next one for flawless transitions.
The audio interface integrated into this controller is Serato DVS ready (24-bit/96kHz) but the DVS doesn't come with your purchase sadly.
This DJ controller is definitely pro-quality. The pads offer decent feedback and emit a clicking noise that tells users the hit was registered. Mixing is simple although we did notice that the knobs and sliders tend to start feeling a little loose over time.
Some DJs also weren't fans of the included Serato DJ software program, which seems to cause plenty of major dropout issues. This can be a matter of a sluggish Wi-Fi signal, a slow running computer, or a software upgrade may be needed. If you're dealing with TR-S desynchronization or frequent dropouts, even after following troubleshooting advice on the Serato website and closing all other programs, including those that run in the background, contact customer support for more troubleshooting advice. While this isn't a common issue, it does happen.
There were some reports that users had issues with the jog wheels, which are perfect for scratching, but tend to have issues with backspin, even if you adjust the length via the firmware settings.
The pads don't offer much give, which can make finger drumming very frustrating. The pads have very a rigid feel to them which can make it difficult for DJ's who need pads that can easily press.
Another issue beginners will have involves the user's manual. Most of the information is generic and vague. If you need more support regarding how to use this DJ controller we recommend visiting DJ'ing forums or contacting customer support.
Ultimately, if set up correctly, this DJ controller performs like a pro, however, there are still some bugs to be worked out, although the known issues will not be deal breakers for most potential buyers.
Not too heavy
Tons of customization with the built-in voice controllers, drum machine and 16 pads
Two very low latency RGB jog wheels
Comes with a free Serato DJ Pro
Not beginner friendly
High price tag
No built-in screen
Final Words On The Roland DJ-808 Mixer
All in all, the DJ-808 is a model which is targeted at a more professional audience. It has a ton of customization options on it in the face of buttons, knobs, and pads. Having all that makes you think that you don't need anything else for your DJ set. Well, that would've been entirely true if Roland had included a set of screens on their controller. Alas, they didn't, so you will need to bring your laptop along. Apart from the high price and lack of display, there are no other major downsides to the DJ-808 and therefore we gave it a four and a half out of five stars rating.

Have St. Paul residents planned for long term care?
On behalf of Dan Duffek of PFB Law, Professional Association posted in Long Term Care Planning on Wednesday, February 5, 2014.
While every Minnesota resident hopes for the best, nobody can predict the future. Unfortunate events occur from time to time, with little or no advance warning. While it may not be possible to avoid these incidents, a little bit of planning can go a long way toward dealing with these incidents when they happen.
Perhaps nowhere is this more true than with long term care planning. Most individuals do not know if or when they will need to live in an assisted living facility or nursing home. While this uncertainty exists for everyone, proper long term care planning can help make it easier for an individual and their family to deal with the situation when the time comes.
However, it is important to recognize that long term care planning is unique to each individual. A plan that works well for one person might not work for another.
Even long term care insurance itself varies between different individuals, with females bearing higher premium rates than males. Premium policies for single women in particular rose 12 percent last year across the country, even though rates for single men decreased. The rate disparity was said to be due to the longer life span of women, which results in more long term care claims being paid out to females than males.
Faced with increasing costs of insurance and health care, many individuals rely on government programs, like Medicaid. However, these programs have certain financial eligibility requirements, and many individuals might have too many assets to qualify for the programs, despite the fact that they need the assistance.
Fortunately, through proper estate planning, individuals can properly plan for long term care. Spend down techniques, for example, can help individuals qualify for Medicaid, while protecting the person's family at the same time. By transferring non-exempt assets into exempt assets, individuals can safeguard their assets while ensuring they will be protected for long term care assistance.

We Asked a Futurist About the Jobs That Don't Exist Yet
Eventually, robots will write articles like this one. Thankfully, there'll be new ways for me to earn a living.

When I rang up futurist Ross Dawson—an Australian guy who basically predicts the future for a living—to ask what the next century of employment holds, I didn't expect him to say that robot writers were already starting to phase me out, and cyborg brain implants might only be ten years away. But he did, and I panicked.
Thankfully Ross assured me things weren't going in a Bladerunner direction, and so long as I'm any good, I'd keep my job. Since he's a nice bloke, he also suggested plenty of alternative careers that don't even exist yet. Potentially, in ten years, I could be living a dream I didn't even know I had.
The future of jobs, in Ross's eyes, is bright and full of robots—less Terminator, and more Tamagotchi. Here's what we talked about.
VICE: Ross, let's get right to the point. Are we going to lose our job to robots in the future?
Ross Dawson: That's a big question. There are many jobs of today that will be replaced by automation. The big question is: Will we be able to create new jobs as fast as we are losing them? Throughout the history of humanity, we've destroyed jobs and we've created new ones. Now, the pace of job destruction is increasing.
What jobs are we losing?
Straightforward mechanical tasks, mainly. We've already lost a lot of blue collar work to automation, though more skilled trades are safe for some while. Now, we're starting to see white-collar middle manager jobs replaced.
OK. I'm a writer, am I safe for the next decade?
There are jobs being lost in journalism, because the shape of journalism is changing. We're seeing the rise of algorithmic journalism. Simple stories in sport and business reporting are being written by automated systems. We will, absolutely, see more of what is currently done by journalists done by machines.
What are some of the new jobs we'll need to create?
There are three domains where humans continue to beat machines: expertise, creativity, and relationships. So, we're going to see more jobs in design, because design is a combination of expertise and an understanding of people and creativity. As we have more and more wonderful machines, we'll need people to design better and better ways to use them. We'll see more jobs focused on user experience, to make sure these machines serve the people who create them.
Let's say my job title is "user experience designer." What am I actually doing?
One job like that would be an emotional interface designer. So you'd design a robot that will respond to us emotionally. We've made a lot of progress in designing systems people will respond to emotionally.
So basically making the movie Her come to life.
Well, yes. It's only a matter of time until we have something which not only has the capabilities of the operating system in Her, but also has a visual representation that is essentially indistinguishable from a real person. It is very feasible; we're already on the verge of systems that are emulating Her. Not to the quality depicted in the movie—for now. But there's a lot of value in those systems, and we need humans to create them.
If that's something we're already working towards, what's a job that doesn't exist yet, but will?
A brain implant surgeon. When the technology is advanced enough, more and more people will choose to have implants in our brains so we can more directly interface our minds with the technology around us. That's an entirely new industry. People will need to create the interfaces, to implant them, and to train people to use the technology. That's another entirely new job: brain interface trainer. Those that are more skilled at using these brain interfaces will be better at their work, so we'll have trainer to help us use the interface.
That sounds very sci-fi.
Not really, people are already using brain interfaces. We've only just begun, but think of the emotive headset for controlling games. That's a brain interface.
So brain interface training will be like the future equivalent of learning to touch type. What's the time frame on this?
Certainly within the next ten years we will get strong emotional engagement with the technology around us. Not just with emotional interfaces, but things like robotic pets. Just the other week, Hasbro released a robotic pet to keep elderly people company. We're going to see significant improvements in the quality of those pets. That's one example of how we'll engage with the technology.
That technology actually sounds really nice.
As a futurist, I believe we need to be very aware of the power and the ethical implications of the technology we have. But certainly, there are many way this technology could be extremely beneficial. Really, the possibilities are limitless.

My boys recently watched the movie E.T. and loved it! They really wanted E.T. made out of food so we came up with this breakfast. We made this E.T. Breakfast using pancake mix, 1 strawberry, 1 dark grape, whipped cream, and nutella.
This is actually easy to make. I am pretty sloppy with pancakes…really! I just poor out the mix onto the pan and try to shape out a blob of something close enough for me to clean up around the edges with kitchen scissors.
We shaped the head, arms, neck, nose, etc.. in the pan with our pancake mix. We cut around the edges to shape and used the scraps for the details. My 12 month old also loves the scraps!:) We put a little Nutella in a squeeze bottle (you could use a baggie and snip off the corner) and added the mouth and nose (you could also use mini chocolate chips or raisins for this as well). Cut the end off of a strawberry for the tip of his finger. We sprayed on whipped cream for the eyes and cut 1 dark grape in half for his pupils.
There are so many things you could use…just go with what you have and your little E.T. fan will love this breakfast!!
« Previous PostSpaghetti and Turkey FOOTBALLS!
Oh my goodness….that's the funniest breakfast I have ever seen!
ha…thanks! The kids definitely got a kick out of it!
This is the best – brings me back to the 80s!
this made me seriously laugh out loud, love it. The pie up there is cool too!
this is adorable, and also to me, hysterical. my boyfriend has what i lovingly refer to as "et toe." writing this out sounds ridiculous, but his one toe is like et's finger. i forwarded this link to him so that he could see. thanks for the smile this morning!
That is great! I never in a million years would have thought of making ET with pancakes.
Oh my gosh, I totally love this! So cute!
