Americans sign up for thousands of new cell phones every day, and most are honest people who intend to honor their contracts. A very small number are the bad apples in the bunch, criminals using stolen identities to steal valuable devices.
In our synthetic identities blog post we discussed the use of synthetic identities by fraud rings to defraud wireless carries of handsets, but a newer kind of customer may be committing a crime that's much harder to detect: stealing the device without using a fake identity.
These people sign up for wireless phone service, and obtain a new device, using their real names, Social Security numbers and personal information. They don't intend to honor the contract, but they're not falsifying their identities.
ID Analytics researchers, studying data from two billion customer transactions reported by companies in the ID Analytics network, identified this behavior among a group of people who are known as "mules" – the same label used by smugglers for people hired to carry (or tricked into carrying) illegal drugs across a border.
In these "muling" cases, groups of fraudsters recruit, or dupe, other people into acquiring phones for them. In some cases, the mules are tricked into becoming part of the scam.
In other situations, people willingly sacrifice their future financial health. For some, having short-term cash flow is more important than potential long-term damage to their credit record, so they are knowing participants in the scam.
Another type of mule is the unsuspecting consumer who's tricked into helping a fraudster. Imagine a well-dressed person with a clipboard and a stack of forms approaches you at a mall. They identify themselves as a representative of a secret-shopping service who's been hired to measure the quality of customer service at the mall's wireless store. They explain that if you are willing to be a secret shopper you'll make $50 in 15 minutes.
You agree to participate, and you're given the following instructions: Go into the store, sign up for phone service, get the phone, and bring us your receipt. We'll ask you a series of questions about the quality of the service, we'll reverse the transaction to cancel the account, and we'll pay you $50 for your time. Just leave the phone with us.
The consumer who falls for that scam earns $50, only to find out weeks or months later about an overdue bill for that new account and phone. The scammer spent $50 for a phone that can be resold for hundreds of dollars.
In another twist on muling, the buyer of the phone is a willing participant in the scheme. Fraudsters prey on those with lower incomes, offering a chance to make some quick money. In one case documented by a television reporter in Colorado1, referred to as an 'iScheme', homeless and low-income people were sent into stores to sign contracts for phones in their own names, and then given cash in exchange for the phones by a man whose business sold the phones overseas.
Some low-income people have clean credit records because they've never applied for a credit card or loan from a traditional financial company. Combine that with wireless companies that are anxious to sign up new customers, and it becomes relatively easy for many people to qualify for a phone contract.
In Colorado, the scammer approached people who need money – in one case, he was recruiting outside a clinic where people could sell blood plasma to raise cash – and offered them $200 to go into a store, sign up for contracts for several phones, and then give him the phones. He told those people they could cancel the contracts afterward, which was not true. That leaves the scammer with hundreds of dollars in profit per phone, and the "mule" with unpaid debt that will make it harder to get credit, or an apartment, in the future.
While the victim of the "secret shopper" scam might be innocent, or choosing to ignore the "too good to be true" aspect of the deal, the homeless or low-income person who participates in exchange for quick cash likely knows there's something shady about the transaction. But when some quick cash means a hot meal or a roof over your head, it's harder to contemplate the long-term effect of an overdue debt and a damaged credit rating.
Among transactions identified as the riskiest, a large number took place in two adjacent New York City neighborhoods, both in the Bronx.
The transactions occurred in the fall of 2013, just as Apple was launching its newest iPhone. The phones often command the highest prices overseas when the model has just come out.
With such a strong concentration of potentially fraudulent transactions in one neighborhood, the ID Analytics data suggests an organized ring that recruited mules and resold phones in large numbers during the iPhone. Plotting addresses from the wireless-service applications showed clear geographic patterns.
Geographic pattern mapping doesn't always identify the perpetrators, but having that kind of data available in real time can help merchants decide which transactions carry the highest risk. That means most transactions can be cleared quickly, with minimal friction, while only the ones with true risk are delayed for additional review and further verification.

/Posts with tag [ Earl of Bothwell ]
14 April 1556 – Conspirator cheats executioner
1 year ago Author: Claire Ridgway
On this day in Tudor history, 14th April 1556, in the reign of Queen Mary I, Sir Anthony Kingston, died at Cirencester. He was on his way to London to face charges that had been laid against him, and it's likely that he would have been executed.
Why? What had he done?
7 May – The wife Bothwell divorced to marry Mary, Queen of Scots
On 7th May 1567, eight days before James Hepburn, Earl of Bothwell, married Mary, Queen of Scots, the Catholic court granted him a divorce from his wife, Lady Jean Gordon.
Who was Jean Gordon? Why did Bothwell divorce her? And what happened to Jean afterwards?
Find out more about Bothwell and Jean's marriage, and about Jean's life, in today's talk.
29 April – Bothwell prepares to marry Mary, Queen of Scots
On this day in Tudor history, 29th April 1567 (some sources suggest 26th), James Hepburn, Earl of Bothwell, who had recently abducted and allegedly "ravished" Mary, Queen of Scots, had a suit of divorce made against him by his wife, Lady Jean Gordon.
Lady Gordon was persuaded by Bothwell to make this divorce suit as he was planning to marry Mary, Queen of Scots, which he did on 15th May 1567.
In this talk, I explain what led up to this day, what happened next, and also what a truly horrible man Bothwell was.
14 April – The death of the insane Earl of Bothwell, husband of Mary, Queen of Scots
On this day in Tudor history, 14th April 1578, Mary, Queen of Scots' third husband, James Hepburn, Duke of Orkney and 4th Earl of Bothwell, died at Dragsholm Castle in Denmark. He'd been held at the castle in appalling conditions and it was said that he'd gone insane.
Find out more about the life of this earl who'd risen to be the husband of Mary, Queen of Scots, but who'd died in prison, far away from home, in today's "on this day in Tudor history" video.
James Hepburn, 4th Earl of Bothwell
James Hepburn, 1st Duke of Orkney, 4th Earl of Bothwell and the third husband of Mary, Queen of Scots, was the son of Patrick Hepburn, 3rd Earl of Bothwell and Lord High Admiral, known as the "Fair Earl", and his wife Agnes Sinclair, daughter of Henry Sinclair, 3rd Lord Sinclair. In 1556, on his father's death, James became 4th Earl of Bothwell and Lord High Admiral of Scotland.
In 1559/1560 Bothwell visited Denmark on the way to France and met Anna Throndsen (Anne Thorssen). He is alleged to have seduced and even married Anne but deserted her. In 1566, he married Jean Gordon, second eldest daughter of George Gordon, Earl of Huntly, but the marriage was not a happy one, as Jean accused Bothwell of adultery with her maid and seamstress, Bessie Crawford. The marriage was annulled in May 1567 on the grounds of consanguinity. Eight days after the divorce, Bothwell married Mary, Queen of Scots.
January 31 – Henry VIII's death is announced
January 30 – Sir William More of Loseley

Q: output Tree from string input I need to solve a problem but i don't know how !
With JS i get a string input like :
`#Animal>
#Reptile>
#lizard;
#crocodile;
\\;
#Feline>
#Tiger;
#Cat;
#Leopard;
\\;
\\;
.`

With this rules :
'#'  => line start
';' => end of line
'>' => branch Start
'\' => end of branch
'.' => end of string
And the output will be ( with tab and sorted branches ) :
Animal
  Feline
     Cat
     Leopard
     Tiger
  Reptile
     crocodile
     lizard

I can make the tree with this but i don't know how to sort branches.
const transformText = (text)=>{
  const enter =  "\n" ;
  const tab = "\t";
  const special =  ['#', ';','>','\\','.'];
  let nbTab = 0;
  result = '';

  text.forEach(bloc => {
      [...bloc].forEach((caracter)=>{
              if(special.includes(caracter)){
                  switch(caracter){
                      case '#': break;
                      case ';': result += enter + tab.repeat(nbTab);
                      break;
                      case '>' : nbTab++ ; result += enter + tab.repeat(nbTab);
                      break;
                      case '\\' : nbTab--;
                      break;
                      case('.') : break;
                  }
              }else{
                  result += caracter;
                  // console.log(result);
              }
          })
  });
  return result.normalize();

}

A: There are 4 rules in your string
#section>
#childItem;
\\;
.

You could create a regex to match them and process them one by one.
([#\\.])([^>;]*)([>;])*

You can see the matches and explanation here: https://regex101.com/r/Rz5kUB/1
Then loop through each match and process them. Create a root object and keep a variable current to keep track of your current section. In every section add a parent property to help you go back up the chain when you get a \\;.

let input =
  `#Animal>
#Reptile>
#lizard;
#crocodile;
\\;
#Feline>
#Tiger;
#Cat;
#Leopard;
\\;
\\;
.`

let regex = /([#\\.])([^>;]*)([>;]*)/g,
    matches = Array.from(input.matchAll(regex)),
    root = { children: [] },
    current = root

for (const [match, start, text, end] of matches) {
  if (end === '>') {
    const section = { text, children: [], parent: current }
    current.children.push(section) // add the child section
    current = section // go down to nested section
  }
  else if (start == "\\") {
    current.children?.sort((a, b) => a.text.localeCompare(b.text))
    current = current.parent // go back up to parent section
  }
  else if (end === ";")
    current.children.push({ text })
  else if (start === '.')
    break;
}

// removing the parent property from JSON to avoid circular structure
console.log(
  JSON.stringify(root.children, (k, v) => k === 'parent' ? undefined : v, 2)

AYODELE Fayose, governor of Ekiti State has called on former president Olusegun Obasanjo to stop acting like a woman and face his travails like a man.
Mr Fayose made the call today Saturday in a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr Idowu Adelusi in Ado-Ekiti, the state capital, while reacting to Obasanjo's allegation of frame-up which he said was targeted at him by President Muhammadu Buhari's administration.
The governor while urging the former president to submit himself for probe advised him (Obasanjo) not to make his predicament a Yoruba issue.
Fayose making reference to Obasanjo's book, 'My Watch' wherein the former president stated that 'he prefers to be jailed by Buhari rather than former President Goodluck Jonathan being reelected into office' said it is good that he is now being served the goodies he saw in Buhari that made him a Buhari's promoter during the 2015 general election.
"To me, former President Obasanjo should submit himself for probe and trial. He gave us the impression that he is a brave man who is not afraid of anything. He is a retired general in the army who has seen a lot and should not be raising alarms now. Obasanjo said Buhari was the best for Nigeria while promoting him for the 2015 general elections.
"In his book 'Under My Watch', Obasanjo said he prefers to be jailed by Buhari rather than former President Goodluck Jonathan being reelected into office. Now prison is beckoning on him and he wants to dodge. He set up the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) and among others.
"Obasanjo even used those bodies to hound and lock up many people including state governors, why is he now afraid of being probed. Let him tell Nigerians how he made his money. People can recollect the level he was before he became president and how he left office. If Buhari is now telling the whole world that Obasanjo stole money, it is incumbent on Obasanjo to prove his innocence.
"Moreover, Obasanjo should stop giving the impression that he is the leader of the Yoruba people. He is not. We have more eminent people who qualify to be our leaders. And he should also not try and sell any dummy that his travails are that of Yoruba people. I have been tried a number of times by the EFCC and faced the challenges as a man. He should also do so.
"In fact, I am laughing at the whole scenario. That Obasanjo could cry out. I don't know he can act like a woman. It is amazing that he is behaving this way. If he has anything to clarify, let him do that," he said.
Fayose, who described both Obasanjo and Buhari as analogue leaders, urged them to step aside and allow the younger generation to take over the stage.
On his criticisms of Buhari, Fayose said they were always done in good faith. The governor said it was unfortunate that some people failed to heed his admonition that whoever brings and rides a tiger may end up in its belly.


Well, We finished up another Freightliner M2 recently; however, this one was kind of different as it was an extended cab. If you have been following our builds and rebuilds of Freightliner M2 trucks, you've noticed that they have all been 4 doors. This one we got to do something a little different.
As usual, we started with cleaning up the wiring that was in the truck from previous installs and possibly the conversion company. We made up a new door pod shape that will allow more versatility in speaker mounting. We also had a chance to do something a little different. We installed a quasi-3way kit into this truck. Using Focal Integration Line speakers, we installed an 8″ midbass into the new door pod, and used the 5.25″ Coaxial speakers in the factory dash location. This gave us much more output, while being able to play much lower than the 5.25″ will allow. While it was all run off of radio power, it sounded far better than any non amplified projects we have done…in a Freightliner. We also equipped the truck with a new Encore E3 alarm and keyless entry system.
Take a look at the pictures below. Believe it or not, that really is an 8″ Speaker on the door.

The Star Trek universe is growing faster than ever, with the possibilities of the franchise multiplying like a pack of tribbles in heat. A major part of this Trek resurgence is due to the success of Star Trek: Discovery, which airs on CBS All Access.
At the end of Season 2, the show truly took the Discovery and her crew where no Trek show has gone before — they are no longer in the timeline of the original shows, but flung further into the future than any show has gone before. They're now playing in a sandbox far past the events of Star Trek: Nemesis, and further than the upcoming spin-off series Star Trek: Picard. We don't know where they've gone exactly, but we know that they've gone there boldly.

A Short Treks character is making the jump to this week's Star Trek: Discovery episode
Fans got an update on what is in store for Star Trek: Discovery's Season 3 during the "Star Trek Universe" panel at San Diego Comic-Con, and SYFY WIRE ramped up its spore drive to be there and get the full briefing.
The admiral of all things Trek, Alex Kurtzman, took the helm and let us know what we can look forward to, joined by producers Heather Kadin and Michele Paradise. The biggest news by far was the announcement that David Ajala, recently seen on SYFY's Nightflyers, will join the show for Season 3. His character is named Cleveland Booker, but he'll usually be referred to as Book.

Alaja was also on the panel, as was Sonequa Martin-Green (Michael Burnham). According to Kurtzman, Season 3 will be going 1,000 years into the future. He added, "Every conversation about how we create Star Trek is filtered through Roddenberry's essential vision of optimism, because it is the soul of Star Trek for us."
That said, he mentioned that there will be "lots and lots of changes" in Season 3. "Things you recognize, things you won't recognize. We're shaking up canon — we're not erasing anything, but we're shaking it up quite a bit. I want to assure you all first and foremost that it is still Star Trek, and it will be Star Trek the way Roddenberry wanted it."
Ajala then talked about his new character, saying, "He's gonna break the rules a little bit. It's always fun to break the rules and we're going to do that right from the start." He'll apparently have some scenes with Burnham, as a photo was shown of the two characters walking along a rocky shore wearing heavy coats.
Sonequa Martin-Green then revealed that Jonathan Frakes (Commander Riker himself, frequent Discovery director) said that Season 3 reminded him of Star Trek: The Next Generation. "There's this sense of brewing passion, fire, and heart, and we're really excited for the next stage of what we're doing," she said.
Kurtzman teased that the Discovery is going to have some issues right from the start, saying, "When they get out of the other end of the wormhole, they have some big problems." It was also made clear that though the captain's chair of Discovery was left (somewhat) unfilled at the end of Season 2, it is something that will be determined at the beginning of Season 3.

After a long day, who hasn't stumbled into the grocery store without the faintest idea of what to put on the table, when suddenly the tempting whiff of a freshly roasted chicken puts everything into perspective?
Here are 25 easy dinner ideas incorporating rotisserie chicken. These aren't formal recipes but rough outlines you can tweak to suit your family's or friends' tastes.

And with so many ideas, you're bound to find something to please even the most picky dinner guest.

Destiny 2: Vostok Guide
In this guide to Destiny 2's Vostok, we provide you with tips, tricks and the strategy you need to win.
Vostok is a new Control map in Destiny 2 and a familiar location for many players; the location takes place directly next to the Iron Temple, a social space from Rise of Iron. In Destiny 2, the PvP map is situtated Felwinter Peak and sees players fight over competing towers and a network of caves. With three control points and a particularly large layout, Vostok is undoubtedly the largest map seen so far and provides a variety of combat encounters (snipers look likely to excel here, alongside close-quarter weapons for the variety of buildings).
With IGN having provided a hands-on look at Vostok, we've pulled together some tips and tricks that might help you.*
1. Like any Control map, it's often best not to run through the most common routes. You'll be easily spotted and killed.
2. Snipers and close-quarter weapons excel in Vostok due to its wide open spaces and tight buildings.
3. If you've a long ranged weapon (sniper rifle or pulse) you should be aiming to head straight into one of the tallest buildings in order to lay down covering fire.
4. As is customary, when attempting to take a Control point, try not to do it by yourself. It's much safer to do it in pairs, as you can gaurentee that when you do attempt to contest, they'll be defended.
5. Vostok's cave system allows for travel between Control points without having to face the barrage of ranged fire. Use them to reposition.
6. Be careful when skirting around the edges of Vostok - you can be knocked off the edge (or fall if you're clumsy enough!).
*Please note this guide will be heavily updated when Destiny 2 goes live.

It's official: Kevin Durant signs with Nets, to have new number
Written By Ameer Tyree

The Brooklyn Nets have officially acquired Kevin Durant and the star has a new number.
The team on Sunday confirmed the news first reported on June 30.
🚨 OFFICIAL: We have acquired 10x All-Star and 2x NBA champion Kevin Durant! 🚨
Hello, @KDTrey5 ⚫⚪ pic.twitter.com/WBgKGnm5Id
- Brooklyn Nets (@BrooklynNets) July 8, 2019
As reported earlier, the Nets got Durant and a protected 2020 first round draft pick from the Golden State Warriors in exchange for guards D'Angelo Russell and Shabazz Napier and forward Treveon Graham.
"Kevin is a champion, perennial All-Star and one of the great players of this, or any, generation," Nets General Manager Sean Marks said in a statement. "Adding a player of Kevin's caliber to our organization elevates our ability to compete with the elite teams in this league. His tremendous abilities and dedication to his craft have made him as talented an offensive player our game has ever seen and we, as well as all of Brooklyn, are thrilled to welcome Kevin and his family to the Nets.
Russell Westbrook trade rumors: Rockets in pursuit despite deal being a 'long shot'
NBA free agency rumors: Mavericks acquiring Delon Wright from Grizzlies in sign-and-trade deal
Earlier in the day, Durant announced an unexpected change.
The Nets star has worn No. 35 for his entire 12-year NBA career, but he announced that he'll don a No. 7 jersey when he hits the court for Brooklyn. Durant explained his decision via Instagram on one of his business pages, Thirty Five Ventures.
A post shared by Thirty Five Ventures (@35ventures) on Jul 7, 2019 at 4:00pm PDT
Durant credited his old number for allowing him to honor someone close to him, travel, gain new experiences and form important bonds, among other things. But he says the change signifies the next chapter in his basketball career.
The 30-year-old forward won back-to-back NBA titles with the Warriors in 2016-17 and 2017-18 and averaged 26.0 points, 6.4 rebounds and 5.9 assists per game last season. He got off to a hot start in the playoffs but suffered a calf strain against the Rockets in the second round. Durant wouldn't play again until Game 5 of the NBA Finals against the Raptors, where he ruptured his Achilles.
Durant declined his player option with Golden State to team up with his close friends Kyrie Irving and DeAndre Jordan in Brooklyn and is expected to miss most if not all of 2019-20. However, once he does return, he could make the team a serious contender in the Eastern Conference.
The Nets posted a 42-40 record in 2018-19 and were eliminated from the postseason by the 76ers in the first round. But their newfound star power could drive a surge to the top in the near future.

A lot of us hear these terms per diem whereas, how many of us have truly grasped the essence of assets and liabilities? Read on to find out more about these terms with stimulating examples that form an integral part of the current market scenarios.
Assets are something your company owns that can provide you with future economic benefits. Assets add value to your company and increase your company's equity. The more your assets outweigh liabilities, the stronger is the financial health of the company. More assets mean, the company has resources to fulfill its obligations.
For example, when Facebook was initially founded, very few people had smart phones. Until recently, Facebook was primarily known for its website and only a few people used the app launched later on. This all changed when in 2012, Facebook paid $1 billion dollars to acquire Instagram and later on in 2014, $19 billion dollars for WhatsApp. Although this mounted to a huge amount of money for the company, as of now it gives the company large profits along with letting the company stay on the edge of technology. These would be considered as assets for the company.
Company's future obligations are called liabilities. This includes money that must be paid or services that must be performed. Liabilities decrease your company's value as well as equity. A company whose liabilities exceed its assets is most probably in a financial crisis.
For example, Kingfisher had accumulated dues worth $2551 million in 2012. The airline was operating on a cash and carry basis for the last six months with daily payments amounting to ₹8 million. This comes under liabilities which could bring the company under immense trouble financially.
The aggregate difference between assets and liabilities is equity, which is the net residual ownership of owners in a business.

The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland consists of four countries: England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland (not to be confused with the Republic of Ireland). The sovereign state is a constitutional monarchy, headed by Queen Elizabeth II, with a parliamentary government. Its capital, London, is the most populous city in the European Union, with almost nine million inhabitants. The UK has sovereignty over 17 territories which are not considered part of the United Kingdom itself: the independently administered islands of Jersey, Guernsey, and the Isle of Man, and 14 overseas territories, including Bermuda, the British Virgin Islands, the Falklands, Gibraltar, and Montserrat.
The British economy is the fifth largest in the world, with nearly three-quarters of the GDP derived from the services sector. Despite close ties to the European Union and European Economic Community, the UK employs its own currency in the form of the pound sterling. The UK is the sixth most popular tourist destination and London the single most visited city in the world. The "green and pleasant land" is composed primarily of low hills, plains, lakes, and rivers, with some mountainous regions in the Scottish Highlands and Wales.
The UK enjoys a moderately temperate climate with four distinct seasons, including wet but mild winters; however, temperatures can vary significantly from the colder northern reaches of Scotland to the southeast portion of England nearest to the continental mainland. The country's population is majority white at 87.1%, although the percentage of ethnic minorities is markedly higher in the London metropolitan area than elsewhere in the country. 95% of British inhabitants are monolingual English speakers, though immigration has recently led to a rise in secondary spoken languages, particularly South Asian (Punjabi, Urdu, Hindi, etc.) and Polish. Welsh, Irish, Scottish Gaelic, and Cornish are protected regional languages. The Church of England and the Church of Scotland are their respective countries' national churches, but the Church in Wales and the Church of Ireland are no longer extant.
The United Kingdom is usually represented by four distinct country teams in international sporting events, with the notable exception of the Olympics, during which the UK is represented by Team GB. Association football (soccer) is the country's most popular sport, and its Premier League is the most watched professional football league in the world. Rugby, cricket, tennis, motorsports, equestrian events, golf, boxing, and snooker are other beloved British sports. The country's cultural exports, from Shakespeare and J.K. Rowling to the Beatles, Radiohead, and Adele, have led to its reputation as a "cultural superpower." The British Broadcasting Company (BBC) is the oldest and largest broadcaster in the world, with branches dedicated to television, radio, and digital coverage. Some of the world's oldest and best universities are located in the UK, including Oxford and Cambridge.
Here is probably the most extensive ebook on Everything You Ever Wanted To Know About Eliminating Your Taxes, Protecting Your Assets And Regaining Privacy Over Your Life And Investments. It is called The Ultimate Guide To Going Offshore. Visit our bookstore to purchase it today!

Xyber Force Technology was founded in 1998, the research team has made this first discovery of combining two top-notch technologies of "bioinformatics" and "far infra-red ray" (FIR) to transmit bio signals to human body without the use of any medicine or electronic devices. This breakthrough is by encoding "sequence re-alignment bio signals" and over 90% FIR energy onto a small piece of tape (energy tape) which creates instantaneous transmission of "bio signals & FIR" into the human nerve fibres. The stimulated nerve fibres which transmit signals to the spinal cord and brain, activating the body's central nervous system then release hormones and stimulate the activities of human cells to enhance pain relief and overall well-being. Xyber Force energy tapes have been proven to achieve instantaneous results as if acupuncture treatment.

I have decided to round up some of my favorite photo series with the hope that they may serve as inspiration and promote creativity. This selection is inspired by A Whole New Mind: Why Right-Brainers Will Rule the Future, a book by Daniel Pink that has changed the way I think about creativity and what it means to us in this day and age.
These images offer great photo series ideas with examples of "big picture thinkers" finding their own, unique way to express themselves.
With 6 stunningly beautiful kids, Michelle Dupont is not only blessed with a large and lovely family, she's also a gifted fine art portrait and wedding photographer who gets to spend her days capturing other people's memories.
A few years ago, French photographer Sacha Goldberger found his 91-year-old Hungarian grandmother Frederika feeling lonely and depressed. To cheer her up, he suggested that they shoot Grandma's Superhero Therapy, a series of outrageous photographs in unusual costumes, poses, and locations. Grandma reluctantly agreed, but once they got rolling, she couldn't stop smiling.
British photographer Tim Flach sees animals in a completely different way. Having completed postgraduate studies at St. Martins School of Art London, Flach shoots stylized animal portraits that look more like fine art than framed shots of puppies.
Like Valerie Chiang or Kalie Garrett, Alex Stoddard is one of those talented teenage photographers who knows how to express themselves. His striking self-portraits are incredibly unique, and, after viewing them, you're left wondering where he's going to take you next.
Bring Everyday Objects to Life!
Artist Terry Border is one of those lucky people harboring a hidden talent. He can take boring, everyday objects and make them come alive. His art can be appreciated for the clever thought behind it.


When writing a visual novel, or any highly interactive story, one challenge faced by the writer is keeping track of all the different story branches and where they go. Do they lead to a bad ending? Do they go off in a different direction? Do they eventually merge back together? Do some decisions have consequences that don't show up until later in the story?
Some writers are very good at keeping all their plot details straight in their head, with a minimum of a notes, outlines, and the like. I'm one of them. However, once you start adding interactivity and branching paths, that quickly becomes impossible for all but the simplest stories. If you want to write that kind of story, no matter how good your memory and organization, you need something to track the story flow.
Being a game designer and writer, I've seen a lot of different methods used to chart interactive stories. Word documents and Excel files are easy to make and access, but tend to get extremely unwieldy the larger they get. Html sites and wiki are easy to browse and update, but make it difficult to get an easy view of the story flow at large. There's even a very nice professional program designed specifically for working with interactive stories, but it's moderately expensive and limits you to a single proprietary file format.
If you don't need to cram a lot of detail into each node on your story chart, the best method is probably to make a standard flowchart, which is what I'm doing with Aurora's Nightmare. While they lack detail, they make it easy to take in the flow of the story at a glance and trace all the different paths. They also make for a nice walkthrough of sorts for players, if they're released publically.
My problem was finding a good way to make my flowchart. Word has some barebones flowchart drawing tools, but they're fairly limited (especially by page sizes). I've also drawn flowcharts in Photoshop, though it lacks any actual flowchart tools, so it's basically free drawing and can be a bit of a pain. I started out doing the AN flowchart in Word, but recently switched to a free flowchart program I found online. I may talk about it more in a future post if it works out well. In the end, I may even make my development flowchart available to players on this site, GameFAQs, or some such after AN is released, as it will help completionists looking to see every single scene.

Das Delhi Cantonment, kurz auch Delhi Cantt., ist eine der drei kommunalen Verwaltungseinheiten der indischen Megastadt Delhi (National Capital Territory of Delhi, kurz NCT). Sie umfasst eine Fläche von rund 43 km², bei der indischen Volkszählung 2011 wurden 116352 Einwohner erhoben. Wie auch die anderen Cantonments Indiens dient es der Zivilverwaltung von Gebieten mit signifikanten militärischen Einrichtungen, die entsprechende Verwaltungsbehörde heißt Delhi Cantonment Board.

Geographie

Das Delhi Cantonment ist zusammen mit dem in unmittelbarer nordöstlicher Nachbarschaft gelegenen Neu-Delhi sowie der Municipal Corporation of Delhi eine der drei kommunalen Verwaltungseinheiten des eine einzige große Agglomeration bildenden NCT. Dabei nimmt es mit 43 km² nur einen relativ kleinen Teil des 1483 km² großen NCT ein, ebenso entsprach seine 2011 erhobene Zahl von 116.352 Einwohnern nur einem Bruchteil der insgesamt rund 16,8 Millionen Einwohner.

Parallel zur Unterteilung in kommunale Verwaltungseinheiten ist das Hauptstadtterritorium Delhi auch in elf Distrikte gegliedert, wobei das Delhi Cantonment dem Distrikt Neu-Delhi zugeordnet ist.

Geschichte und Verwaltung
Das Delhi Cantonment wurde im Jahr 1914 zur Zeit Britisch-Indiens gegründet. Nach der Unabhängigkeit wurde hier das Hauptquartier der Indischen Armee angesiedelt, ebenso wie eine Reihe weiterer militärischer bzw. verteidigungsrelevanter Organisationen sowie Unterkünfte und Dienstleistungseinrichtungen für Militärangehörige.

Das Delhi Cantonment hat zwar eine eigene Zivilverwaltung, untersteht dabei jedoch stets der Kontrolle des Verteidigungsministeriums. Der Stadtrat des Cantonment Boards setzt sich aus 15 Personen zusammen. Acht Mitglieder werden alle fünf Jahre gewählt und vertreten jeweils ein Stadtviertel (ward). Drei aus dem Militär stammende Mitglieder werden ernannt, drei Mitglieder erhalten ihren Sitz ex officio als Vorsitzende militärischer Einrichtungen (der Station Commander dient gleichzeitig auch als President des Cantonment Boards) und ein Mitglied wird von der Distriktverwaltung entsandt.

15-см важка польова гаубиця М.15 () стояла на озброєнні Ц. к. артилерії Збройних сил Австро-Угорщини під час 1-ї світової війни. Вироблялась компанією "Škoda" впродовж 1916-1918 років у кількості 57 штук.

Історія
15-см гаубиця М.15 була розроблена під набої гаубиці М.14, але мала більшу за неї дальність стрільби. Після Аншлюсу Австрії, захоплення Чехословаччини 1939 потрапили на озброєння Вермахту як 15 cm schwere Feldhaubitze 15(t) (чеські) і 15 cm schwere Feldhaubitze 15(ö) (австрійські). Перебували на озброєнні до 1941 року.

Після завершення радянсько-фінської війни 20 гаубиць закупила Фінляндія (150 H/15) для озброєння 21, 22, 28 дивізіонів важкої артилерії. Були зняті з озброєння до завершення нової війни 1944 з СРСР і розміщені у фортифікаціях.

N+2 (A 2Pu ¬X 2S+g) excitation in the charge-exchange collision with caesium: two-electron effects at keV energies
J. Phys. B , Volume 27 p. 5037- 5053
Charge-exchange collisions of 5 keV N+2 on Cs are examined using translational spectroscopy to identify the internal energy states of the fast neutralized products. Optical pumping of the reactant, N+2(A <- X) or Cs(2P <- 2S), is used to change selectively the electronic configurations and the reaction energy defect, while monitoring the resulting changes in the product state distribution. The N+2/Cs charge exchange yields N2 Rydberg states. A simple model of their formation would involve the transfer of the single outer electron in Cs into a Rydberg orbit built on the N+2 core. However, the present studies identify a surprising and highly efficient reaction mechanism in which the electronic configuration of the N+2 reactant is also changed during the electron transfer. This facile two-electron process, which occurs for both near-resonant and non-resonant reaction channels and has not been observed in other molecular charge-transfer reactions, is believed to be related to the very small energy separation between the ground and first excited electronic states of N+2.

Obesity occurs when, over a long period of time, the amount of food we put into our bodies each day is not used. In essence, this means that there is consistently more energy going in than out. That energy has to go somewhere, so our bodies store it as fat.
We all over indulge every now and then, and it isn't this occasional overeating that causes obesity; obesity is caused when we over do it most days, for a sustained period of time.
Unfortunately, we live in a world where it is very easy to gain weight. Our environment encourages us to eat, and discourages us from being active.
MoreLife understand this. We know how complex our environments are, what drives weight gain, and we know how hard it is to lose weight in the long-term; obesity tends to be a chronic and relapsing condition.
Did you know….? It only takes 100 extra calories per day to gain 10lbs over the course of a year.

Operationalizing the neighborhood effects of the built environment on travel behavior
Steven R. Gehrke, Liming Wang
Geography, Planning, and Recreation
Evidence of a connection between the built environment and individual travel behavior is substantiated by multidisciplinary research. In general, compact development patterns exhibiting high concentrations of activity locations and a traditional street design support sustainable travel. However, uncertainty in the magnitude of this connection remains due to how the built environment has been operationalized, usually at a geographic boundary chosen out of convenience. This Portland, Oregon study uses household travel survey data to systematically examine variation in the magnitude of this association when measuring land development pattern, urban design, and transportation system features at various scales. Specifically, this study measures 57 built environment features describing an individual's trip origin and destination at 12 combinations of zonal systems and spatial extents, and assesses their effect on home-based mode choice. First, correlations between individual- and household-level walking behaviors and each combination of indicator and geographic boundary were measured to examine scaling and zoning effects associated with the modifiable areal unit problem (MAUP). These sensitivity test results informed the specification of home-based work and non-work multinomial logit models estimating the effect of sociodemographic, economic, and built environment features on mode choice. Our study findings offer new insight into the MAUP's scaling effect on measuring smart growth indicators and their connection to sustainable travel behavior.

These sensitivity test results informed the specification of home-based work and non-work multinomial logit models estimating the effect of sociodemographic, economic, and built environment features on mode choice. Our study findings offer new insight into the MAUP's scaling effect on measuring smart growth indicators and their connection to sustainable travel behavior.",

N2 - Evidence of a connection between the built environment and individual travel behavior is substantiated by multidisciplinary research. In general, compact development patterns exhibiting high concentrations of activity locations and a traditional street design support sustainable travel. However, uncertainty in the magnitude of this connection remains due to how the built environment has been operationalized, usually at a geographic boundary chosen out of convenience. This Portland, Oregon study uses household travel survey data to systematically examine variation in the magnitude of this association when measuring land development pattern, urban design, and transportation system features at various scales. Specifically, this study measures 57 built environment features describing an individual's trip origin and destination at 12 combinations of zonal systems and spatial extents, and assesses their effect on home-based mode choice.
