Jon Stickley Trio Independently Releases 'Lost at Last' Today
Rapid-fire Flatpicking Guitar
Combined with Melodious, Sultry and Wild Violin
And Deep Groove Drums
The Bluegrass Situation Premiered Jon Stickley Trio's
New Music Video for 'Point to Point'
Jon Stickley Trio independently releases Lost at Last, their 2nd album, on October 6, 2015. The originality and sheer energy of this genre-bending ensemble serves as a welcome wake up call for those who experience it. With roots in gypsy jazz, bluegrass, and hip-hop, Jon Stickley Trio combines Jon Stickley's rapid-fire flatpicking guitar with the sultry and wild, yet refined, melodies of Lyndsay Pruett (Futureman) on violin set over the deep groove of Patrick Armitage (Atmosphere) on drums. The three have fused their collective styles into a repertoire of exciting and innovative original music along with some captivating covers. The album is now available on CD Baby and iTunes.
The New York Times' Nate Chinen writes "… there's hardy cohesion among the players — no less on the Gypsy standard 'Valse de Wasso' than on 'Darth Radar' a turbocharged original with a ska upbeat and a shredding melody. And when Mr. Stickley and friends turn to bluegrass, as on 'The High Road,' by Tim O'Brien, they sound both respectful and free."
Fan-funded through Kickstarter, Lost at Last features eleven tracks including six original tunes. It opens with "Point-to-Point," a song that could sum up the Trio's personality, ranging from delicate syncopated pizzicato interplay to a powerful electo-rock climax featuring Jon's distinctive flat-picking style. "Darth Radar" is already a crowd favorite at the Trio's live shows; it was originally inspired by the modern dubstep artists, Skrillex and deadmau5, but over time has settled into an upbeat groove, with elements of ska and the fleet single string tremolo one might hear from Dick Dale, and other surf guitar gods. "Rice Dream," is Jon's subtle prayer for Tony Rice, who is one of his biggest musical influences. The song highlights Jon's nimble picking style and soft harmonic chimes as well as the haunting beauty of Lyndsay's violin.
Other tracks include the hypnotically enchanting "Goa," penned by Pruett on the shores of the Indian Ocean, the cinematic and neoclassical "Octapickin," in which Pruett's beautiful string arrangements and improvisations take the listener through an emotional dreamscape, and the relaxing and poetic "Pamlico Sound."
Lost at Last features a handful of covers including The Bad Plus' "Never Stop", Tim O'Brien's "The High Road," set to a grooving half time feel and break beat reprise, held down by Patrick Armitage on the drums. Lost at Last also features a 'Stickley" version of Strength in Numbers' "Slopes" (written by Bela Fleck, Mark O'Connor). The record also includes a traditional gypsy jazz waltz, "Valse de Wasso,"and ends with "Flight of the Durban," penned by Stickley's longtime friend Leftover Salmon's banjo ripper Andy Thorn.
What Folks Are Saying About Lost At Last:
"Lost At Last takes the listener on a winding musical journey where the unexpected is the expected… Sweeping melodies, precise pickin', thumping percussion and frenzied violin are just some of what await you… " –The Daily Country, Tara Joan
"Probably the best thing about reviewing music is finding artists I've never heard of and falling in love… When I first put on Jon Stickley Trio's sophomore album, Lost at Last, I listened for a few minutes and thought, 'that's bold–opening with an instrumental.' I dig it. I soon learned it was an album of sell-your-soul-to-the-devil quality picking instrumentals." –Grateful Music, Dan Fugate


The document from which this information is taken is in German. There is no publication name given but the document was sent to Mr. Samuel Weicker in 1998 from Otterstadt. It is believed to be written by Alfons Schreiner but no publication name or author is listed on the photocopied pages. Here is the story it tells.
Those wishing to emigrate from the area of Otterstadt were to first apply to the local board and district office. If approved, they were to prove they had no outstanding debts then show proof of a valid ticket and declare any valuables they were taking with them. They also needed a passport, a birth certificate and approval of the country to which they were immigrating. The rules were very strict for men of military age.
The people who were thinking of emigrating, in this case, were the poor of the village of Otterstadt. Failure of the potato crop in the previous years and lack of work prompted the village to consider sending their poor abroad. They would raise the money to assist the emigrants to leave, thus easing the load on the village in poor relief.
When the community first decided to assist their poor to emigrate, it was suggested they go to New Orleans. However, an official in the Berlin office responsible for emigration suggested the party go to Brazil as a colonization scheme was underway to settle that area. The government made very generous terms but the emigrants did not wish to go to Brazil as many of them had relatives in North America.
The party then decided that New York or Quebec would be their destination. Quebec was chosen because a change to the emigration regulations in the United States were seen as a possible hindrance. These regulations, they said, restricted the emigration of sick, invalids, elderly and women with children, without their husbands. Fearing they would be sent back, Quebec became the destination of this party.
G.A. von Moers with the Shipping Company of F.J. Wichelhausen and Co., in Bremen was asked to be the agent. In June,1852, permission to emigrate finally came. The party had to be transported from Otterstadt via Ludwigshafen to Bremen where they would board the ship. The party was to depart on the 28th or 29th of June with the mayor or other town official accompanying them to the port. In the end, Commissioner Pfeufer was sent with the party as he had some knowledge of emigration matters.
Pfeufer states that the party left on Thursday, July 16, at 3p.m. arriving in Ludwigshafen at 6:30p.m. They slept in the open that night and then boarded a steamboat heading to Aschaffenburg and Frankfurt. "Therese," the steamboat, had difficulty as the water level was very low but the party was landed on July 17, at 2a.m. They arrived at Köln and then boarded a train to Bremen. They stayed over Sunday, July 19, and on Monday boarded two boats and sailed to Bremen harbor. With bad sailing conditions to contend with, the party arrived on Wednesday, July 22, around noon.
Since it was late in the season a German ship would not make the trip as it would not be able to return to Breman before winter. Thus a ship, the Arthur [some records list it as Prince Arthur], was sent for from Hull, England. The vessel was to arrive on July 22, but it was delayed and did not arrive until August 1. A German doctor was to accompany the party and see to their needs. When the ship arrived in Quebec, if there were no complaints made against the captain and crew, a bonus was to be paid to the captain.
172 persons by the "Prince Arthur," from Bremen, appear to have been sent out under the sanction of the Bavarian Government. They were from the parish of Ollerstadt [sic] near Speyer, Bavaria. They had orders on a commercial firm in this city for a small sum of money, equal to about 8s. currency each. Their destination was stated to be Rochester, but as their money was insufficient to carry them to that quarter, and being aware that a demand for their services existed at Hamilton, they all decided to proceed there, this department contributing a portion of the expense.
A party of foreign paupers, 172 souls, chiefly female and children, were sent out by the Bavarian Government. They were from Otterstadt near Seyer [sic]. A remittance was made to a commercial firm in this city for their benefit on arrival, amounting to 8s. 6d. currency each, but which was wholly insufficient to provide for their support, and enable them to reach such points as would afford them suitable employment. They consequently had to be assisted by this department to reach Hamilton, and arrangements were made which secured employment on the public works in that district for all the men able to work.
Although the party had thought of going to Rochester, New York to obtain work on the Erie Canal, Mr. Buchanan directed them to the Hamilton, Ontario area as they did not have enough money to make it to Rochester. Many of them settled in Waterloo, County, Ontario.
The following list, it is believed, was made sometime before the departure. The reason for believing this is the fact that Johannes Remünder, according to one of his descendants, had a child born in April, 1852 and this child does not appear on the list.


Renal transplant biopsies are performed to identify graft pathology such as sub-clinical rejection, chronic damage and donor factors such as vascular disease. Surveillance biopsies are performed in patients with stable renal function at set time points following transplantation. Biopsies are performed to aid clinical decision making including optimising immunosuppressant regimens and may assist in graft survival estimates. There are no current standards or guidelines for the optimal time to perform a surveillance biopsy. Surveillance biopsies are not without risk although complication rates are low. We investigated management changes of protocol renal transplant biopsies taken at one-year post-transplant and identified whether abnormal findings in surveillance biopsies altered patient management. A retrospective analysis of all patients who underwent a 12 month renal transplant surveillance biopsy between Jan 2007-Dec 2010 was performed. Surveillance biopsies from 9-16 months were included. Diagnostic and clinical trial biopsies were excluded. A total of 315 transplant patients were investigated, with 95 (30%) having had a protocol biopsy. 84% of the surveillance biopsies identified pathological findings. 3 patients (3%) had histological evidence of sub-clinical rejection and were treated with intravenous methylprednisolone (3x500mg). Overall, 17.7% of patients had their immunosuppressant regimen altered based on the biopsy results. No significant complications requiring hospital admission occurred. Twelve month surveillance biopsies identified pathology in a large proportion of patients. 18% of patients had a change to their immunosuppression based on the biopsy results. 12 month surveillance biopsies are a safe and effective tool in identifying potentially reversible graft pathology.


Last weekend, I went out of town with a bunch of friends for a bachelorette party. I knew many of the ladies would be giving the bride lingerie as a gift, so I thought I'd go a different route.
For my wedding, my Maid of Honor put together a bridal emergency kit that was really helpful. It contained little items that you might not think you would need, but are really useful if you do. Ever since then, I've helped put together little emergency kits for most of my bride friends. I thought this would be a perfect gift to give.
To start with, I bought a small travel-sized make up bag. I got my hands on one from the Lilly Pulitzer collection from Target in the bride's favorite color – green. Then, I picked up items for the kit as I would find them/think of them while out shopping. The following made it into the kit: band-aids, alcohol swabs, disinfectant wipes, cough drops, an emergency sewing kit, Eos lotion, gum, Kleenex, deodorant, bobby pins, hair ties, and a piece of white chalk. Yes, chalk. in a pinch, you can use it should anything spill on your dress. Chalk won't remove the stain, but it will cover it pretty well for photos.
Some other items you could include would be a nail file, clear nail polish, pain reliever, double sided fabric tape (to keep dresses in place). Really, you could include whatever you think the bride would find helpful on her big day. Include a pack of her favorite candy or her go-to snack. Anything goes.
I couldn't find a cute bachelorette party bag or card, so I improvised and made my own. I found some cute pink girly stickers at Michael's and stuck them to a plain black bag. For the card, I found a pack of blank cards with a hot pink stilletto on them at Homegoods.
I highly recommend making this for any bride friend. It's one less thing she has to worry about for her big day, and she'll be able to enjoy the make up bag on her honeymoon and all her trips to come.

Republican Party, the New American Nazis?
Republicans, the Party of Hate.
What next? Brown shirts, Jack-boots and a hunt to cleanse "our White, Christian, Fatherland"?
NO. I refuse to accept that ANYONE is out there, not supporting the hate platform of the Republican Party and still calls himself/herself a Republican. If you are a Republican, you are a party to the hate against Muslims and Islam, you are a party to the hate against Hispanics, Blacks, LGBTQ and everyone else that the party of "Grab 'em by the p***y" hates.
The GOP website "Listen to America" has a questionnaire online right now that focus hate against Muslims behind the ploy of "asking questions", leading questions that they would not DARE ask about anyone other than about Muslims.
"Radical Islamic Terrorists"! In almost any given year, Radical Christian Terrorists (sorry, Patriots) have killed more in the US than Muslims. Oh, and about slaughtering Americans, ask the Natives and the Blacks how many hundreds of thousands, how many MILLIONS have been killed just in the US but White Christians and then look at me and tell ma Islam is a problem.
"Are you concerned about the potential (emphasis added) spread of Sharia Law"? Do these self-serving, bigoted numbskulls even understand what "Sharia Law" is do they even know that Sharia is NOT "law" and that it can be different from group to group? Whose Sharia and Whose spread?
Exactly WHERE has "Sharia Law" spread to? I am not aware of a single state that says or is considering it will abandon the US constitution and adopt Sharia.
What next, "Do you agree that the US must stop the oppression of Muslim women by Muslim men"? That sounds like a question that every unthinking idiot (and there are many) will nod and say "yes" to.
I have friends who are Republicans, a couple of them are close friends too. Now I must ask myself, "What must my friends believe of me and people like me because of their support for Republican Party"?
I am tired of people trying to tell me the party and Republicans as people are two different things. No, I'll say this again, if you call yourself a Republican and if you support the Republican Party, then YOU also support Hate as an important part of being an American.

Q: How can I capture the complete commandline in Perl? Suppose the call was
/usr/local/bin/perl verify.pl 1 3 de# > result.log

Inside verify.pl I want to capture the whole call above and append it to a log file for tracking purposes.
How can I capture the whole call as it is?

A: $commandline = join " ", $0, @ARGV; does not handle the case that command line has quotes such as ./xxx.pl --love "dad and mom"
A Quick Solution:
my $script_command = $0;
foreach (@ARGV) {
$script_command .= /\s/ ?   " \'" . $_ . "\'"
                :           " "   . $_;
}

Try to save the following code as xxx.pl and run ./xxx.pl --love "dad and mom":
#!/usr/bin/env perl -w
use strict;
use feature qw ( say );
say "A: " . join( " ", $0, @ARGV );
my $script_command = $0;
foreach (@ARGV) {
    $script_command .= /\s/ ?   " \'" . $_ . "\'"
                    :           " "   . $_;
}
say "B: " . $script_command;

A: $0 has the script name and @ARGV has the arguments, so the whole commandline is:
$commandline = $0 . " ". (join " ", @ARGV);
or, more elegantly (thanks FMc):
$commandline = join " ", $0, @ARGV;
I don't however, know how to capture the redirection (> result.log)

A: There is way (at least on unix-systems) to get whole command line:
my $cmdline = `ps -o args -C perl | grep verify.pl`;
print $cmdline, "\n";

e: Cleaner way using PID (courtesy of Nathan Fellman):
print qx/ps -o args $$/;

A: Here virtually same Linux-only variants (of course, after shell intervention):
pure perl
BEGIN {
    my @cmd = ( );
    if (open(my $h, "<:raw", "/proc/$$/cmdline")) {
        # precisely, buffer size must be at least `getconf ARG_MAX`
        read($h, my $buf, 1048576); close($h);
        @cmd = split(/\0/s, $buf);
    };
    print join("\n\t", @cmd), "\n";
};

using File::Slurp:
BEGIN {
    use File::Slurp;
    my @cmd = split(/\0/s, File::Slurp::read_file("/proc/$$/cmdline", {binmode => ":raw"}));
    print join("\n\t", @cmd), "\n";
};

A: See In Perl, how do I get the directory or path of the current executing code?

A: Example which handles more special cases (and without adding own name) and with processing the line with GetOpt:
#!perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Getopt::Long qw(GetOptionsFromString);
use feature qw ( say );

# Note: $0 is own name

my $sScriptCommandLine;
my @asArgs = ();

my $iRet;

my $sFile = '';
my $iN = -1;
my $iVerbose = 0;

# ============================================================================
my %OptionsHash = (
    "f=s"               => \$sFile,
    "n=i"               => \$iN,
    "v:+"               => \$iVerbose);

$sScriptCommandLine = join( ' ', @ARGV );  # useless for argument with spaces
say 'A: ' . $sScriptCommandLine;

$sScriptCommandLine = '"' . join( '" "', @ARGV ) . '"'; # all arguments in "", but not suitable for arguments with '"' (given as '\"')
say 'B: ' . $sScriptCommandLine;

$sScriptCommandLine = '';
foreach (@ARGV) {
  $sScriptCommandLine .= ' ' if ($sScriptCommandLine);
  $_ =~ s/\\/\\\\/g; # needed for GetOptionsFromString
  $_ =~ s/\"/\\\"/g;
  if (/\s/) {
    $sScriptCommandLine .= '"'.$_.'"';
  }
  else {
    $sScriptCommandLine .= $_;
  }
}
say 'C: ' . $sScriptCommandLine;

my ($iRet,$paArgs);
($iRet,$paArgs) = GetOptionsFromString($sScriptCommandLine,%OptionsHash);
# remaining parameters in $$paArgs[0] etc.
if (!$iRet) {
  # error message already printed from GetOptionsFromString
  print "Invalid parameter(s) in: \"$sScriptCommandLine\"\n";
}

say 'D: ' . '<<' . join( '>>  <<', @{$paArgs} ) . '>>';
say 'f=s: "'.$sFile.'"';
say 'n=i: '.$iN;
say 'v:+: '.$iVerbose;

Alchemy Film and Moving Image Festival
Alchemy Film and Moving Image Festival is an international festival of experimental film and artists' moving image. Alchemy Film & Arts was founded in 2010 and has produced seven editions of the Alchemy Film and Moving Image Festival. The festival is produced in partnership with Heart of Hawick in the Scottish Borders. The 2017 festival screened 139 films from 21 countries over five days, with 46 world premieres, 14 European premieres, 39 Scottish premieres and over eighty filmmakers in attendance. Alchemy Film & Arts also engages in developmental projects for experimental film and artists' moving image production in Scotland, including artists' filmmaking residencies, a year-round exhibitions programme, filmmaking symposia, touring programmes and community filmmaking initiatives. In 2017, Alchemy Film & Arts curated Scotland's national exhibition at the Venice Art Biennale, presenting a major new film commission by the artist filmmaker Rachel Maclean.
The Festival was initiated in 2010 as a collaborative project between Alchemy Film & Arts (a registered Scottish charity), Heart of Hawick (a venue and cultural regeneration initiative run by Scottish Borders Council) and Creative Arts Business Network (CABN). It is now run as a partnership project between Alchemy Film & Arts and Heart of Hawick. Richard Ashrowan, a Scottish Borders based moving image artist, has been the festival's Creative Director since 2010.
Heart of Hawick and Alchemy Film & Arts are again working together to create the eighth edition 2018 festival. Heart of Hawick is the central venue and festival hub, while the Creative Director coordinates the creative input of the festival partners.

ISLAMABAD: At the Historians Moot, on Thursday, organised by the National Institute of Historical and Cultural Research, Quaid-i-Azam University (QAU), historians lamented that history is an important discipline which remains neglected in Pakistan.
Over 100 prominent historians and university and college teachers from Islamabad and Rawalpindi region attended the one day moot. Historians Professor Dr Khurram Qadir, Dr Rafiq Afzal, Dr Naeem Qureshi, Dr Riaz and Dr Javid Haider Syed were among those who attended the moot.
Participants passed a resolution and vowed to establish a forum for Pakistani historians to collaborate for research and development in the discipline of history.
QAU Vice-Chancellor Professor Dr Javed Ashraf, who was the chief guest at the moot, said that QAU is carrying out high quality research at the M.Phil and PhD levels. He said that he would play a role in promotion of teaching and research in history.
Senior research fellow Dr Sajjid Mehmood Awan told Dawn there is a serious need to promote history as a discipline. "Pakistan has produced several progressive writers such as Mubarak Ali, Dr Mubashir Hussain and Tariq Ali but unfortunately, they have not received recognition at the official level. These writers are not mentioned in any national historical narrative," he said. Dr Awan added that there is a dire need for the documentation of regional history.
Earlier, in his welcome address NIHCR Director Professor Dr Syed Wiqar Ali Shah said the moot was the first step towards the promotion of the discipline of history. "The purpose is to offer a platform to historians and history teachers of the twin cities to offer their views on the current state of the discipline," he said.
Dr Shah said the moot was aimed at discussing the role of historians in the currently changing environment, strengthening the discipline of history, identifying research areas and facilitating research and development in the domain of historical research.
He said the proposals of the participants would help advance the discipline of history in the larger national interest and ultimately pave the way for exploring new avenues in historical research.
A platform would be offered to historians to share their knowledge for the greater benefit of historians, teachers, scholars, researchers and students alike.

Cadillac Eldorado, Sandy Point Site, Albuquerque International Sunport, New Mexico, U.S.A.
Patrick Nagatani
1996; printed 2001
6 in x 8 in (15.24 cm x 20.32 cm)
This photograph depicts a view looking down into an archeological site. A vertical wall of dirt fills the entire frame of the photograph, and arrayed throughout the composition are various archeological tools: shovels, pickaxes, and sifting screens, as well as various crates, fuel canisters and other unidentifiable mechanisms. In the center of the photograph, partially emerging from the wall of earth, is the form of a car. Still covered in a patina of dirt, the car's side window is open, making its cab appear dark and tomblike. The vision conjures up associations of catastrophes, such as the remains of Pompeii and Herculaneum, ancient Roman cities buried under five meters of volcanic ash. The form of the car however—a Cadillac Eldorado, as the artist's inscription informs us—is an unfamiliar sight in this archeological context.
On closer inspection however, it is evident that the scene is actually a view of a miniature model, an elaborate diorama. This photograph is a part of the series, the Ryoichi/Nagatani Excavations, in which the artist created a narrative surrounding a fictitious Japanese archaeologist named Ryoichi. By chance, Ryoichi discovers a mysterious set of documents that lead him to various sites of ancient cultural importance around the world. Excavating this locations in secret, Ryoichi's team discovers buried evidence of an ancient automobile culture that inexplicably parallels our own. Nagatani presents himself as the photographer for these secret excavations, claiming his photographs are the sole evidence of the project's existence. The elaborate, outlandish story reveals Nagatani's interest in photography's supposed verisimilitude, and explores the intersection of documented facts and contrived fictions.
This photograph depicts a view looking down into an archeological dig site in which a buried car is being excavated.

Hertz to Rent Mitsubishi i-MiEV Electric Cars in UK
The Hertz Corporation has signed an agreement with Mitsubishi to add the i-MiEV electric car to the fleets of Hertz and car sharing club Connect by Hertz in the UK.
The rollout starts today, with two Mitsubishi i-MiEVs now available for Connect by Hertz members to zip around London. Hertz plans to add further i-MiEVs to its fleet throughout the year across the UK.
Customers will be able to charge their vehicles at Hertz charging stations located across the capital as well as at Heathrow and London City Airport. In addition, customers will have access to the Source London public charging points which are being rolled out across London by 2013, as part of the Mayor's plans for London to become the electric vehicle capital of Europe.
The Mitsubishi i-MiEV can park in tight spaces and breeze through traffic while comfortably accommodating four adults. It has a range of over 90 miles and can be charged up to 80% via a quick charging unit in as little as 30 minutes or fully charged overnight via a standard 3 pin domestic plug socket.
On sale officially from August 2010, the Mitsubishi i-MiEV is also the world's first ever pure-EV to have received the Euro NCAP 4-star Rating.

"This new agreement lays the foundations for the two parties to continue their sound economic and trade relations once the United Kingdom has left the European Union", the Swiss government said in a statement (here in English). He has also faced pressure from some of his MPs to push for another public vote on Brexit.
"The point of the exercise is to say there is a majority for a close economic relationship if you are prepared to try to find it and I said we should test that by having a vote on the customs union", Sir Keir said.
Mr Reidy said: "It's really important that a consensus is built across the House of Commons but a credible consensus that also gets the assent and agreement of the EU27".


LAHORE, March 10 A one-day Sahir Ludhianvi festival will be held at Bagh-i-Jinnah Open Air Theatre on Friday (tomorrow).
The Punjab chapter of the Progressive Writers Association has organised the event.
The festival will open with a seminar titled 'Sahir's personality and works'. The seminar will be presided over by Hameed Akhtar. The participants will be Nisar Safdar, Husain Majrooh, Ahmad Aqeel Ruby, Amjad Ali Shakir, Asad Mufti, Dr Ziaul Hsana, Abib Husain Abid and Khalid Mehmood.
In the afternoon there will be a poetry sitting which will be presided over by Aslam Gurdaspuri.
A music concert is also part of the festival in which Ustad Hamid Ali Khan, Suriya Khanum, Saieen Zahoor, Jawad Ahmed, Aqeel Manzoor, Muhammad Jawad, Rustam Fateh Ali, Shafqat Salamat Ali and a few other vocalists will perform.
Born into a landlord family in 1922, Sahir Ludhianvi's early education was in Khalsa High School, Ludhiana.
In the college, he was quite famous because of his revolutionary nazms. After being expelled from the college in 1943, Sahir settled in Lahore. Here, he completed his first Urdu work, 'Talkhiyaan' (Bitterness).
He then began searching for a publisher and after two years, he found one in 1945. After his work was published, he began editing some Urdu magazines. Later, he became a member of the Progressive Writers Association.
However, inflammatory writings in 'Savera,' an Urdu magazine, resulted in issuance of a warrant for his arrest by the Pakistan government. Somewhere in 1949, Sahir fled from Lahore to Delhi.
After a couple of months, he settled in Bombay. He was a popular Urdu poet and a songwriter.
He won the Filmfare Award twice in 1964 and 1977, and was awarded the Padma Shri award in 1971. He died in 1980.


Palo Alto, CA – Today Xage Security announces the first and only tamperproofing system for Industrial Internet of Things deployments. This new system extends the Xage security fabric's blockchain-protected IoT tamperproofing technology beyond the core security and authentication architecture into individual controllers and devices, providing a patented security foundation for millions of industrial control systems and processes.
The Xage security fabric already distributes authentication and private data across a network of decentralized nodes to facilitate continuous machine-to-machine cooperation and trust at scale for industrial organizations. The company's newly developed, blockchain-protected fingerprinting technology creates a unique digital replica of every physical machine and an immutable machine fingerprint record. Deployed on top of the Xage security fabric, digital replica fingerprinting creates identities and authentication for systems that don't have them and detects changes made to a controller or device in real-time. If an unauthorized change is made, the Xage fabric will flag and isolate the affected device, securing the network against malware attacks that are otherwise undetectable.
Security for existing industrial systems – including remote terminal units (RTUs), SCADA-master (supervisory control computers), PLC (programmable logic controllers), and human-machine-interface (HMI) computers that have access to RTUs, SCADAs and PLCs – is often limited and reliant on the "air-gapping" or network-layer-blocking of local networks. These distributed components are particularly vulnerable to attack, especially as digital transformation leads to increased connectivity between networks, applications, and access in industries like energy, utilities, and manufacturing. Built to avoid single points of security failure and designed to protect legacy components, Xage's solution is the first designed to fully tamperproof these mission critical systems.


Buy Raspberry ketone: Why Use Raspberry Ketones Weight Loss Supplements?
Why Use Raspberry Ketones Weight Loss Supplements?
Statistics summarized by the American Weight-Control Information Network identify more than two-thirds of adults in the United States as being overweight (68.8 percent). Of this group, over 35 percent are considered obese. Most people understand that being overweight or obese can lead to serious health problems, such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Although for many people, losing weight can be incredibly difficult. Some people turn to liposuction and other surgical procedures to remove excess pounds. However, this can be expensive, potentially dangerous and there's no guarantee that the weight will stay off. Another popular alternative for weight loss is dietary supplements.
When it comes to supplements for burning fat and redefining the body, there are many options to consider. This can be daunting for any perspective consumer, especially when not fully understanding the science behind the supplement and how the ingredients work in relation to each other. There has been a great deal of focus for the use of raspberry ketones weight loss supplements recently and the popularity is justified.
Raspberry ketones - This compound is a botanical extract also known as rheosmin or frambinone. These ketones are responsible for the fruity scent of raspberries. Scientific studies have discovered a range of important health benefits from taking raspberry ketone extracts. This compound elevates adiponectin concentrations within the body; adiponectin causes fatty acids to oxidize which allows for weight loss. With an increase in adiponectin, it's possible to lose weight much faster. This promotes slimming and also reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease. It can help protect against Type II Diabetes through regulating blood glucose levels.
Calcium carbonate - Many know that calcium is essential for the promotion of healthy bones and a strong heart. However, few people are aware of the link between calcium and weight loss. Calcium plays a number of roles in the body; this includes minimizing the activity of hormones that lead to a build-up of fatty tissues. Calcium can also intercept fatty acids and attach to them before they can be deposited as fat cells. Taking a quality supplement with calcium carbonate will build up calcium levels to make fat loss possible while simultaneously protecting bone density.
Raspberry Ketones weight loss formula is clearly based on grounded scientific knowledge and an understanding of how the body stores and expels excess fat. Both raspberry ketones and calcium carbonate are both safe and work well together when combined to promote healthy weight loss. One of the great benefits of this supplement is that it not only helps with the weight loss, but it also improves overall health.

On what to pay attention to when buying a crossover for 700,000 rubles? The car must be reliable, and, of course, comfortable. Before you decide, you should study the features of several models from different manufacturers. The most popular today, new crossovers to 700,000 rubles, which perfectly cope with their tasks in the city, and in light off-road. Used cars can also serve faithfully. When deciding which SUV to buy for 700000, is to decide, whether you want a new car with a warranty or used with several great options in the configuration.
If you need a new SUV to 700,000 rubles note on Russian UAZ Patriot, which comes in four trim levels: Classic, Welcome, Comfort, Limited. Basic package starts from 500,000 rubles, the charged Limited a little not up to 700000.
Among the options Patriot there are also models with a diesel engine, however, they are not included in the price category of "SUVs and crossovers up to 700,000".
There is also a possibility to buy a SUV for 700,000 rubles, produced by Russian TagAZ plant together with the Hyundai. The model Tagaz Vortex Tingo comfort is much higher than the UAZ Patriot. As a result, for relatively small money you can buy a crossover to 700000, reliable, convenient and undemanding car, suitable for going to the country and for the city. Efficiency and comfort combine in this car. The cabin is spacious for a small crossover is rare, but Tagaz Vortex Tingo this implemented as well.

Crossovers to 700,000 rubles from new French group is also the Renault Sandero Stepway in various models. For example, the variant with the 84-horsepower, engine displacement 1.6 l, manual transmission will cost up to 500000. If you add about a hundred, you can buy a car with forced to 103 HP engine of the same volume, but with automatic transmission.
SsangYong Actyon is a representative of the Korean automotive industry. This car can also be attributed to the category of SUVs to 700,000 rubles, but only in the basic configuration. SsangYong Actyon is a full-size crossover, with the same characteristics with European cars is much cheaper. The machine is quite reliable and comfortable, although it has a more rigid suspension and some problems in high-speed running.
If you want to buy a crossover for 700,000 rubles, which would be universal, practical Lifan X60 can be an excellent choice.
If you need to buy the SUV up to 700,000 rubles possible to pay attention to used cars. When the warranty expires, the machine is already significantly cheaper, so you can for less money to purchase a model with a large number of options.
New car of this class with automatic transmission in the configuration above, the base can cost 800000-900000 rubles. After 2-3 years of operation, its cost will be lower. Thus, real to purchase the machine with the necessary qualities, with limited means.
On what to pay attention to when choosing Boo crossover to 700,000? Of course, mileage, year of manufacture and operation conditions.
However, when there is a good host vehicle crossovers with mileage up to 700,000 rubles can become a reliable assistant when driving in an urban environment and travel even on easy road.
The result is what would be the best crossover to 700000 only you can decide. For some, it is a new car with a warranty and, as a rule, with basic equipment, and for other good SUV with mileage and a wide range of additional options.

List of Padma Bhushan award recipients (2010–2019)
The Padma Bhushan is the third-highest civilian award of the Republic of India.[1] Instituted on 2 January 1954, the award is given for "distinguished service of a high order", without distinction of race, occupation, position, or sex.[2] The recipients receive a Sanad, a certificate signed by the President of India and a circular-shaped medallion with no monetary association. The recipients are announced every year on Republic Day (26 January) and registered in The Gazette of India—a publication used for official government notices and released weekly by the Department of Publication, under the Ministry of Urban Development.[3] The conferral of the award is not considered official without its publication in the Gazette. The name of a recipient, whose award has been revoked or restored, both of which require the authority of the President, is archived and they are required to surrender their medal when their name is struck from the register.[4] As of 2019[update], none of the conferments of Padma Bhushan during 2010s have been revoked or restored. The recommendations are received from all the state and the union territory governments, as well as from Ministries of the Government of India, the Bharat Ratna and the Padma Vibhushan awardees, the Institutes of Excellence, the Ministers, the Chief Ministers and the Governors of State, and the Members of Parliament including private individuals.[3]

When instituted in 1954, the Padma Bhushan was classified as "Dusra Warg" (Class II) under the three-tier Padma Vibhushan awards, which were preceded by the Bharat Ratna in hierarchy. On 15 January 1955, the Padma Vibhushan was reclassified into three different awards as the Padma Vibhushan, the Padma Bhushan and the Padma Shri.[3] The criteria included "distinguished service of a high order in any field including service rendered by Government servants", but excluded those working with the public sector undertakings with the exception of doctors and scientists. The 1954 statutes did not allow posthumous awards; this was subsequently modified in the January 1955 statute.[4] The design was also changed to the form that is currently in use; it portrays a circular-shaped toned bronze medallion 1 3⁄4 inches (44 mm) in diameter and 1⁄8 inch (3.2 mm) thick. The centrally placed pattern made of outer lines of a square of 1 3⁄16 inches (30 mm) side is embossed with a knob carved within each of the outer angles of the pattern. A raised circular space of diameter 1 1⁄16 inches (27 mm) is placed at the centre of the decoration. A centrally located lotus flower is embossed on the obverse side of the medal and the text "Padma" is placed above and the text "Bhushan" is placed below the lotus written in Devanagari script. The State Emblem of India is displayed in the centre of the reverse side, together with the national motto of India, "Satyameva Jayate" (Truth alone triumphs) in Devanagari script, which is inscribed on the lower edge. The rim, the edges and all embossing on either side is of standard gold with the text "Padma Bhushan" of gold gilt. The medal is suspended by a pink riband 1 1⁄4 inches (32 mm) in width with a broad white stripe in the middle.[3][4] It is ranked fifth in the order of precedence of wearing of medals and decorations of the Indian civilian and military awards.[a]
As of 2019[update], a total of 218 individuals have been conferred with the award in 2010s – forty-three conferments were presented in 2010, followed by thirty-one in 2011, twenty-eight in 2012, twenty-three in 2013, twenty-four in 2014, twenty in 2015, nineteen in 2016, seven in 2017, nine in 2018, and fourteen in 2019.

Controversies and refusalsEdit
The 2010 conferment on an Indian-American businessman Sant Singh Chatwal created much controversy. Awarded in the field of Public Affairs, Chatwal is known for his association with former US President Bill Clinton and his wife Hillary Clinton and pled guilty to violating the Federal Election Campaign Act and witness tampering during the United States presidential election.[36] He was also accused of lobbying for the award by leveraging his contacts in the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) and United States Congress.[37] The Government of India, however, issued a press release defending the conferment. The statement mentioned Chatwal as a "tireless advocate" of the country's interest in the United States. It also clarified that out of five Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) registered cases against him between 1992 and 1994, three were closed by CBI itself and in remaining two cases, Chatwal was discharged by the Court and as per the reports that were made available to the selection committee, there was "nothing adverse on record against him".[38][39] According to media reports, there were several cases filed or registered after April 2009 which includes three criminal complaints with Kerala Police and four cases in Delhi High Court and Kerala High Court. Chatwal also served summons in January 2010. However, the then Union Home Secretary Gopal Krishna Pillai said that "no probe has been ordered nor any report sought from anyone".[40]
Earlier in 2008, Chatwal was considered for the Padma Shri but the Indian Embassy in Washington, D.C. declined to nominate Chatwal when asked by the PMO. Ronen Sen, who was then serving as the Indian Ambassador to the United States, had told the PMO that the conferral would not be appropriate because of the controversy associated with Chatwal's financial dealings in two countries. Sen had also mentioned that though positive, Chatwal's contribution are much less compared to other Indian-Americans and the bestowal would not only "demoralise the others who had done much more" but also would create "the impression that India did not regard lack of transparency in financial dealings as a disqualification for its highest honours".[41]
In 2013, playback singer S. Janaki refused to accept her award and stated that "the award has come late in her five-and-half-decade long career". The singer also mentioned that she is not against the Government and expressed happiness for the recognition but requested the Government to "show some more consideration to the artists from the southern parts of the country".[42] In 2014, family members of J. S. Verma who served as 27th Chief Justice of India refused the posthumous conferral stating that "Verma himself would not have accepted" the honour as he "never hankered or lobbied for any acclaim, reward or favour".[x][44]

Former Liverpool defender Sebastian Coates has been banned from wearing red boots by Sporting Lisbon.
Details of the defender's contract have been revealed via Football Leaks, and the Uruguayan, who is on loan in Portugal from Sunderland, is prevented from wearing the colour red on the pitch due to the apparent association with rivals Benfica.
Coates is also unable to wear blue boots due to a potential link with Porto.
Sporting are current top of the Portuguese Primeira Liga, one point clear of Benfica who have a game in hand.


Many retailers who are looking to leverage the power of mobile technology to enhance customer service, need a solution that ensures rapid deployment, low risk, minimal setup costs, and faster ROI. That's a fact.
That is why we've created the Turnkey Edition of Tulip Retail Clienteling, an out-of-the-box mobile solution for store associates that is easy to install, configure and launch in retail stores. This entry-level edition offers the key clienteling features and maximizes the return on investment in Tulip.
Clienteling has proven to have a positive impact on sales and brand loyalty, and we understand the need and urgency that retailers have for this solution. That is why, all the features of the Turnkey Edition are designed for ease-of-use and ease-of-integration, and the deployment is executed within weeks (not months).
Armed with a powerful clienteling solution that incorporates an intuitive user interface, store associates can anticipate the customer's every need before they even step into the store. They can quickly gain access to customer information such as past purchases, appointment notes, etc., thereby allowing them to assist customers shoulder-to-shoulder, with an intimate and personalized approach.
Turnkey Edition empowers the associate with an omnichannel catalog that provides a 360-degree view of all product information. This allows the store associate to sell more effectively by leveraging real-time product information, product reviews and ratings, and engaging product images and videos.
Store associates have mobile access to the online as well as in-store inventory, allowing them to sell products that are available in-store, in other stores, or online, thereby offering customers an endless aisle experience.
The key Clienteling features in the Turnkey Edition equip store associates with vital customer information such as birthdays, anniversaries, and other special events. The app notifies the associate to send custom or templated texts or emails to customers, greet them on their special days, interact with them through emails and texts even after they leave the store, thus adding a more personalized touch to the customer-associate relationship.
Store associates and their personalized interactions with customers often play a vital role in driving future online and in-store sales. However, in most cases, associates are not credited for the impact that their communication and personal relationships have on these sales. The sales attribution feature in the Turnkey Edition ensures that the associates who drive in business via their follow-ups and personalized texts and emails are given due credit for the same.
The Turnkey Edition paves the way forward for retailers who are looking to invest in a clienteling solution but want to minimize risk and their upfront costs while accelerating time to value and maximizing ROI. The launch of the Turnkey Edition is an opportunity for retailers to explore Clienteling with minimal implementation risk and at an economical price point. It is easy to deploy, has best practices built in, involves lower setup costs and minimizes deployment risks. The edition covers up to 50 retail stores and contains a Quickstart Consulting Package from Tulip to accelerate the launch.

OK, so I am fighting off a cold. I thought it was sinuses, but I am feeling crappy this morning.
Also, I moved THE WIFE up to the top of my blogroll because she thinks I love Jenny more than I love her.
I am STALKING Jenny... Deranged infatuation DOES NOT equal love.
You are my one and only. I love you, Wonder Woman.
I love all your chicks. They are my favorites.
The hairy legged boys are ok too, but they are still boys.
That's okay. I like your wife more than me too.

Hollywood Celebrities and the Drug Scene
by Savitha C Muppala on October 1, 2010 at 5:41 PM
Analysing the drug scenario has revealed the manner by which Hollywood celebrities get their fix.
Sources have revealed that anyone from club promoters, to drivers, to doormen, to VIP concierges can be "appropriately connected" with the "right people", and L.A. has no shortage of suppliers.
Decriminalise Cannabis, Says UK Police Leader
The Observer newspaper reported that one of Britain's most senior police officers favours decriminalising the personal use of drugs such as cannabis
"All it takes is one phone call," Fox News quoted a prominent L.A party boy as saying.
"The celebrities are rarely the designated drivers, and they like to have fun inside the clubs. So you know there's definitely some 'partying' going on," he revealed.
It is Not Always Emotional Problems That Cause Kids to Take Drugs and Alcohol
A new study has found that teenagers take drugs and alcohol mostly to 'look cool' and not due to emotional troubles, as we usually think.
Insiders say that some club owners even "pay" celebs with coke to entice them into their venue, and other celebrities have their "friends" and assistants make the necessary arrangements.
And there are times when celebs get a freebie or at least a good discount from a seller who, in exchange, wants to hang out with the "in" crowd.
The Los Angeles Police Department said that they are taking great measures to deal with the local drug scene, but said they do not specifically target celebrities as suspects for illegal activity.
A representative from the Drug Enforcement Administration in Los Angeles said that often small, celebrity-based drug busts can lead to progress in combating the drug epidemic on a larger scale.
While the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the National Institute of Health do not track drug use by occupation (like model, actress or musician), many closely connected to the entertainment arena say recreational drug use is on a dangerous rise.

If there is a poor man among your brothers in any of the towns of the land that the LORD your God is giving you, do not be hardhearted or tightfisted toward your poor brother. Rather be openhanded and freely lend him whatever he needs. Give generously to him and do so without a grudging heart; then because of this the LORD your God will bless you in all your work and in everything you put your hand to.
