Not wanting to clutter other threads, I'll post this here. Will also give me something to look back on and refer to if there are future problems.
AHP installed in x86 folder, Opens fine and shows Registered with three plugins.
CM15a installed and updated with timers downloaded to it. Disconnected from PC and plugged into a centrally located outlet.
PLC01 also plugged into a centrally located outlet.
TM 751 plugged in out in garage (distant physically from units mentioned above) with antenna collapsed. This is to help with coverage of remotes. I had noticed some 'doubling' of commands when this unit was inside the house. That may have been due to conflicts between it and the CM15. That doubling is not happening currently since relocating it and collapsing the antenna. It is NOT included as a module for any purpose in AHP. The (HomeCode) 1 address is assigned to an appliance module in AHP and currently works fine.
For the moment, I seem to have coverage for all installed modules including those that were not working (garage and old style wall switches).
Unsure of Macros yet which is what started this latest quest. Speculation is that the lack of Registration and the SmartMacros plugin may have been responsible. I'll see if they work tonight and in the morning.
CM11 plugged in out in garage (distant physically from units mentioned above) with antenna collapsed.
The CM11A is a serial port controller. With NO X10 RF receiver or transmitter. So it has no antenna to fold over.
Typo. Corrected. I'm very, very tired. Did some concrete work today in between everything else.
PLC01 acted up the next night again, so I unplugged it. Appeared to start at about the time the Macros should have triggered, but none of the lights came on.
The next night (with the PLC01 removed), the macros still did not activate any lights even though they show in the AM.
AHP now shows 'Registered' including SmartMacros, and the file was downloaded again to the CM15 which is disconnected from the computer and plugged in at a central location.
Remote does activate all lights. Macros do not activate any. They're not even really macros, just 'On at night' set for each of three appliance modules with lamps plugged in (dimming not required, low wattage LED bulbs) and one with an On and Off time set for a battery charger in the garage. Time Zone is set correctly in Hardware Configuration.
Note that these timers DID work with the same LED bulbs for months and the remotes DO turn them on and off, so the bulbs are not likely causing interference. I don't know why they stopped working, but that's when I started trying to figure things out and thought the CM11 went bad. Now I'm wondering if I've wasted $40 on the PLC01 and $50 on the CM15 since there is no change.
There is no coupler other than a simple capacitor inside the breaker panel, but given everything else, I'm not sure about spending more money on a different coupler. There are some LAN devices on 2.4G, but since the remotes work without fail, I don't see them being the root cause.
Are the remotes being transceived by the TM751, CM15A or both?
Are the TM751 and CM15A in different locations of the setup?
There could be some signal suckers and noise makers on the CM15A AC power or you have poor phase coupling.
As the simple capacitor across the incoming lines is not an ideal coupling solution. The typical .1uF across power line rated capacitor is 13.26 Ohms at the 120kHz X10 power line frequency.
If you have not looked yet. Jeff has a great set of X10 troubleshooting tutorials.
The 2.4GHz RF signals should not effect the X10 310MHz RF Signals.
Macros do not activate any. They're not even really macros, just 'On at night' set for each of three appliance modules with lamps plugged in (dimming not required, low wattage LED bulbs) and one with an On and Off time set for a battery charger in the garage. Time Zone is set correctly in Hardware Configuration.
So are these macros or timers? There is a difference!
Different issues will apply to a macro verses a timer.
In the files you sent me I didn't see any macros in the ahx file.
You say your using appliance modules, your AHP file shows lamp modules. There is a difference and AHP sends different signals to softstart then nonsoftstart modules, the file I have shows they are softstart.
Also your file shows you have 4 modules set to come on at the same time does the upstairs desk come on /go off when set?
that is the only timer set to an appliance module.
Not setting up AHP with the correct module types will always cause unexpected results.
Two lamp modules and two appliance modules I believe is what you'll see. The other (P2?) is an old style camera 12VDC power supply running a small DC LED in a display cabinet.
I get confused with the terminology of Timer vs. Macro. They both show in different sections of AHP, but the Activity Monitor flags Timers as Macros as far as I can see.
I'm getting frustrated to the point of forgetting about AHP entirely and trying a console of some kind. But I'm not sure that will work either and I really don't want to put any more money into this.
The TM751 is currently out in the garage with the antenna collapsed. It's about 40-50' physically from the CM15 and there are several walls in between them including two concrete block walls. There is a 220 VAC 30A line going from the main panel to the garage where there is a sub panel with local breakers. It's there really only so I can use a small two device remote (KR19A) to turn the charger on/off if I need to.
The CM15 is plugged into an outlet that was previously used for a window AC unit that is wired on a separate 115VAC 20A breaker by itself.
ALL of the remotes work fine. There is no stuttering or apparent duplication of signals that indicates a collision between the CM15 and TM751.
The only issue at this time is that the timers do not turn any of the devices on/off as scheduled.
I have explored the SmartMacro screen and set one for 'On at night' now that the add-on is registered, but I have not downloaded to the CM15 yet.
The units that do not work with timers, can you turn them on/off within AHP?
timers work on time of day as the trigger, work for one device these can have on and off and don't have a run time.
try making a macro with a trigger of say A2 in it turn on the devices in question.
now click on the timer icon in the a2 macro and set it to come on at a time.
if it works make another macro A3 in it place your devices as off then set a timer to run it so it starts at the time you wish devices off.
TM 751 plugged in out in garage (distant physically from units mentioned above) with antenna collapsed. This is to help with coverage of remotes.
A better antenna for the CM15A can eliminate the need for the TM751.
OK, let's see if I can remember all of this. Still doing some concrete work outside in the heat, so my brain is not doing real well. No, I don't let myself get over heated, which is why it's takiing so long.
Plugged the CM15 into an outlet near the computer, plugged in the USB cable, got the Windows ping/acknowledgement.
Tried each module by clicking the onscreen icon. Screen icon changed status and AM logged the event, however NO module reacted.
Unplugged the TM751 (PLC01 was already unplugged) and tried each module again. No change.
I don't know why, but I got the idea to delete one of the modules from AHP and recreate it. Clicked the new icon and the module worked. Proceeded to delete and recreate all of the others. The two LM465s worked, but the two AM486s did not. Plugged the PLC01 back in and the two AM465s worked. As of the moment, all now work from AHP. There is one more AM486 (P1) and the old camera PS (P2) that also work as of now.
Deleted all timers and macros. Created two new ones using the SmartMacro tool. One to turn P3 (LM465), P4 (LM465) and P12 (AM486) On at Dusk/Off at Dawn. The other to turn P15 (AM486) on and off and certain times each day.
CM15 is plugged in and connected to the PC.
TM751 is NOT plugged in.
All modules work from AHP.
We'll see what happens tonight when Dusk rolls around and again at Dawn.
Wake up this morning and none of the lights that should be on are on. Everything is off. Look at AHP, Icons are off. Activity Monitor screen is blank (I had cleared it last night).
Click the button on A3 that says Run Macro and the devices turned on.
Why didn't the Macro fire at the scheduled time?
Since the macro works when clicked I suspect the issue is in the timer.
However as a test try the macro set to run from the PC.
if that still fails then Post your timer settings (screen shot of advanced settings page).
Is there still a box to tic labeled "issue ON instead of bright 100%"?
Yes, tools/preferences/macro options, and worth a try. >!
Hope this works for you and others who might be having similar problem. >!
My utility seems to be having a problem reading my meter remotely. I don't know if it's me or them, but it seems to have started (maybe only coincidentally) around the end of June, not long after I got the CM15a.
I'm trying to pick their brain, but they're not the easiest folks to talk to.
In your link in an earlier post.
The company making the meters have some specification sheets for various models.
I looked at some of them. IF you can read the model number on it. Maybe I have it to look at.
I did not see anything close to X10 power line or RF frequencies. 120KHz line 310Mhz RF.
Now if you where talking Insteon. A few of them use an RF frequency of 910MHz-920MHz or 902MHz-928Mhz.
I have been down this road with Duke Energy after they installed an iTron on our house. Slightly different from your comment, in that I wondered if X10 codes on the powerline would make the iTron calculate a higher power usage than actual.
If you are with Duke our meters are likely the same. According to a Duke engineer in Ohio, my meter uses WiFi to periodically transmit my usage to an aggregator which then uses cell phone technology to get the information to Duke office ( I don't know if that is HQ in Charlotte, or Duke in my state). This engineer was heavily involved with the Duke Energy / X10 problem in Cincinnati after Duke's installation of Eschelon meters.
My short answer to your question is No.
I have about 135 X10 "entities" and X10 powerline transmissions are very active. Duke has not indicated any problems reading my meter (and they know me and would not hesitate to contact me). IF you are with Duke you can PM me and I can give you the name of the Duke engineer in Ohio. Your rep can get his number from the Duke corporate directory.
OK, I have an "Open Way" iTron meter. If yours is an "Open Way" you can at least say you know of X10 / iTron Open Way installations that have no problems. They should just try another meter.
Mine has "Open Way" next to the iTron logo, so meters may not be the same.
You can down load the iTron slick sheets by googling "iTron Open Way" and "iTron CS1".
Thanks for the link to the technical data.
I found an assortment of models on their web site and downloaded the sheets. As you said not too informative.
How it communicates also was not 100% clear but indicated it depended on the option modules installed.
I saw some used a spread spectrum RF 910Mhz-920Mhz or 902MHz-928MHz.
Some used PLC communications at 9.6KHz or 12.5KHz.
The Wi-Fi and ZigBee maybe in one of the options modules I found no data on.
Half correct. The programming is stored in an EEPROM, so not affected by the batteries. However, the batteries supply power to the entire CM15A, not just the clock, so will also maintain things like unit status and flags (which are stored in RAM).
If you keep the CM15A connected to an always on computer and don't care about flags and unit status (on monitored house code), that is fine as the clock will set itself automatically to the computer's clock. If you don't, it will lose its clock in a power failure and not only will none of the timers work, but macros with time delays won't work either until you connect it to a computer to set the clock. Either way the flag and unit status will be lost.
Y'all tired of me yet? Probably not as tired as I am of X-10. Sometimes I just have to walk away from something for a few days.
Read back over the posts about not losing memory (really not a big issue if it did) and gave it a go. Opened the battery door and found one of the four Eveready Alkalines with the label distorted. Pulled it and found it had leaked in a way I've never seen on an Eveready. No idea what happened. Replaced it and I have access again.
Not sure where I am with programming though. Copied the ahx file from the other computer and downloaded to the CM15a again. We'll see what happens tonight. I've added another AM486 into the mix and set a dusk-to-dawn timer on it, so I'm curious to see if that works tonight. I can operate it from the remote, so that's one good sign.
I had tried the 18" wire taped to the antenna ... made no difference in range that I could tell. Moved it to another location closer to where I use the remotes though.
Somehow, I gained access to the SR227 with the "O" address and can trigger it from the remote now. Don't know how or why.
However, I'm back to not being able to trigger modules from AHP. Same as before, screen icons change, but the modules don't react. Not too worried about that right at the moment since this installation on this notebook is not registered yet.
Do you have a good phase coupler?
Have you tried to see if you have any power line noise makers and signal suckers?
Icons changing but modules not responding. Can be a power line signal issue.
No phase coupler, but suddenly I have a new meter. They told me they were going to try this, but didn't say when. I'm gone for a few minutes and this is what I find when I get back.
Appears to be this one, but mine doesn't have the FlexNet logo.
I had unplugged the CM15a and PLC01 sometime Wednesday to see if it would make any difference and still didn't see any new readings show up on the Utility company customer portal. I really wanted to talk to this guy and didn't get a chance.
Guess I'll plug them back in today.
So .... plugged them back in, waited for when the macro should fire ... nada .
Plugged the USB cable in ... malfunction, no connection. Can't communicate with CM15a.
Replaced all 4 AAA batteries, back to working. These were new batteries (or so I thought) when I put them in a week or so ago. Anybody have a problem with CM15as eating batteries?
I'm the horse, X10 is the beater.
You may want to see the CM15A area of the X10 Wiki.
There is a question on eating batteries and a few on USB issues.
Just keep in mind. Now that X10WTI and its registration servers are gone. Not all answers are now valid.


Looking to cure those back-to-school blues? Use the "10 Days of Action" to get your kids energized and equipped for the new school year. Set them up for success with challenges, activities and conversations that address everything from goals and homework to friendships and behavior. Lay the foundation for a great year while having fun and prepping everyone to have their best school experience yet!
One of the most expensive and time-consuming shopping seasons for families is getting kids ready to head back to school. This presents a great opportunity to get those brains working again and make learning fun at the same time. Put the shopping power in their hands! Before you go to the store, provide them with a set budget and the list of supplies. Have them look for any coupons or sales and help decide where to shop. At the store, let them pick out whatever they want. The only rules are to stay on budget and to get all the supplies on the list. This type of experience is a fun and powerful way for kids to begin learning lessons about responsibility, money and how to budget. If they are old enough, get yourself a coffee and relax in the store while they get to work. For extra learning, take a look at the Boys Town Social Skill – Being a Consumer below.
After a summer of late nights and relaxed mornings, it's important to help your kids adjust to the earlier bedtimes and wake-up calls that come with the school year. If you haven't started easing back into school bedtimes and morning wake up times, start now! If your schedule allows, many of these daily activities can be done in the mornings to get kids used to getting up and moving earlier and earlier each day. Once you get where you need to be, stay there. It's a good rule of thumb to create and maintain consistent bedtime and morning routines even on the weekend.
Boys Town Pediatrics recommends that elementary school students should get 10 to 12 hours of sleep each night. Pre-teens through high school-age youth need 9 to 11 hours. These guidelines will vary for individual children, but making sure your child gets enough sleep is one of the best things you can do to ensure he or she will be attentive in class, have energy for the school day and maintain good physical health.
Getting children motivated to study can be a challenge. One way to encourage them to do their homework is to create a designated study space for them. Get your child involved so they feel positive about the space. Challenge them to spend some time making the space their own. Print out the 9 Tips to Building a Good Study Spot below and let them loose. This is a great way to get them excited about studying. For more on study-friendly environments, take a look at the links below.
Back to school means back to morning routines. As you well know, mornings can be particularly challenging times for children to get up, get ready and head out the door on time. To help your child and family be successful, take time before school starts to write down, review and post what the new morning routine will look like during the school year. For younger kids, use the behavior chart below to customize your morning routine. For older kids, simply write out the steps they will take in the morning and discuss how much time they will need for each. Display the timeline in their room as a reminder each morning. For more tips on how to develop an effective, hassle-free morning routine, visit the article below.
Discuss what is most important when it comes to choosing clothing; That they are trendy? That they make you look good? That they are comfortable? That they are unique? Use this as a litmus test when deciding what to and what not to buy when shopping.
Agree upon a budget and build your shopping strategy based off of that. Avoid arguments by avoiding stores that have prices far above your budget.
Make a list so you don't get off course but leave room for one or two fun items if they fit within your budget.
Discuss how clothes can impact what people may think about you. What do you want your clothes to say about you? What can certain pieces of clothing say that others may not. Do you need to build a list of exclusions before you go?
For more support, download the Boys Town Social Skill on Choosing Appropriate Clothing below.
A healthy balance of academics and extracurricular activities is key to a successful school experience. Having an imbalance in one or both areas can cause poor performance and can lead to stress, frustration and anxiety.
The way to work to achieve a healthy balance is to sit down with your child and have a discussion of realistic expectations and goals for grades, school and extracurricular activities. The key here is to make sure your child isn't overloaded with too much or not challenged enough. Remember each child is different with unique academic abilities and likes and dislikes regarding activities.
Talk with them in a positive way. Go over what last year was like, paying attention to what went well and what didn't. Rather than focusing on the negative, discuss what your child learned from last year and how you as a parent can support them in meeting their goals for the coming year. These discussions become more important as children grow older. Write out the goals for the year and display them in a prominent place. Revisit the goals and the short-term strategies that they are using to accomplish them at least once a quarter.
At the start of a new school year, some kids are excited while others are anxious and worried about things that are out of their control. For example, they might worry about not getting the best teacher or not having a good friend in their class. If your child has a case of the "what ifs" or is worried about something beyond their control, resist the impulse to try to solve things for them. Instead, look at the situation as a teaching opportunity to help them learn how to solve problems. A great way to do this is to ask them questions to help them problem solve on their own. Download our list of What If Questions to help guide your conversation. The key with the "what if's" is to not automatically try to fix your child's problems but to instead teach them problem solving skills they can use with the inevitable difficulties and frustrations they'll encounter as they move though life. The questions are based off of the SODAS problem-solving method, for more information on SODAS, take a look at the link below.
Having friends, developing new friendships and maintaining healthy relationships is an important part of your child's development.
When children make friends, they develop important life skills like how to get along with others and successfully work through conflicts and problems. These skills are important for your child to learn because children who get along with others are less likely to have social and emotional difficulties later in life.
Talking to your children about how to be a good friend and develop and maintain healthy friendships is an important discussion to have since relationships are such a big part of the school setting. Make sure your children know what a good relationship entails, especially as they get into the tween and teen year. Check out the articles below for more information on friendships and relationships for different ages.
It's often challenging to get children and teens to ask for help and talk about the areas where they are really struggling. A good way to help your child learn to open up with you is to create situations where your child is relaxed and more likely to be talkative. The activity for today is to plan a short one-on-one mini-date. It can be as simple as a long walk or as extensive as dinner and an activity. The point is to have one-on-one time where you can really talk. Use this time to set up more dates throughout the year. The conversation starters below can help you and your child come up with ideas for future dates and conversations. Letting kids know that communication is important and that you will always make time for it makes them more likely to seek your help when faced with difficulties beyond their capabilities.
Your child will experience difficult and frustrating situations throughout the year with school and academics; relationships with teachers, classmates and friends; and extracurricular activities. Another tool you can give your child to set them up for success when facing issues they are unable to solve, teach them the skill of asking for help. The step-by-step skill is included below.
Day 10: Summer Send Off!
The end of summer and beginning of school can be a bittersweet time for kids and parents. Relaxed summer days filled with fun activities like swimming and playing with friends is coming to an end.
Before your kids head back to school, make sure to help them enjoy the last bit of the summer season while also celebrating the beginning of a new school year. Take a day and surprise your kids with a family outing. It's a good chance to reconnect and relax before the school year stressors set in.

Background: About 209,000 adults experience an in-hospital cardio-pulmonary arrest (IHCA) every year in the US. Known early warning scoring systems (e.g., MEWS, eCART) have shown low efficiency in predicting a patient's risk of deterioration. We assessed the possibility of using the Rothman Index (RI) as such a tool.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective case-control study with 248 adult inpatients at Yale-New Haven Hospital. The IHCA group was comprised of 124 patients who had experienced an IHCA between February 2013 and September 2014. The 124 control group patients did not have an IHCA and were matched by date and time of hospitalization, level of care and principal diagnosis. Patients' RI scores on admission (first RI) and during the 48 hours preceding the IHCA time were used. A mixed linear model statistic and change-point analysis were used to compare RI trend by group.
Results: Baseline characteristics (age, gender, first documented RI) did not significantly differ by group. The final regression model (p=0.022), adjusted for first RI and principal diagnosis, showed significantly lower RI scores in IHCA group beginning at 46 hours and 8 hours before IHCA for ICU and non-ICU patients, respectively. The change point analysis of RI scores trend in IHCA group showed a significant breaking point in the RI scores' declining trend at 2 and 3 hours before IHCA in non-ICU and ICU patients, respectively.
Conclusions: The changes in the RI scores over time showed a significant discrimination in patients who developed IHCA. Our results suggests that the RI may be used as an ancillary tool in inpatient clinical management.

As photographers, sometimes you're lucky enough to have a bride with the best smile and laugh in the whole entire world. Jessica was one of those brides.
She and David tied the knot on a lovely fall day at The Venue in Leawood, and it was absolutely fantastic. From the most adorable kids ever, to Jessica's dad being overcome with emotion during their dance, to Bob Ross socks, to the unity tree during the ceremony [LOVE that idea!], and of course, that smile we talked about earlier. It was all just about perfect.
Jessica and David, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for including us in your day. We'd do it again in a heartbeat!
Are you getting married? We'd love to find out about your plans!

The total assets of these five community banks were $154 million at the end of 1990. The consolidated capital was $6 million and acquisition debt was $9 million.
From this mix of community banks, and an original bank charter from Lancaster dating to 1865, First Southern Bancorp was formed. Original Board Members were Jess Correll, Randy Attkisson, Ward Correll, Vince Correll, David Downey, Doug Ditto, John Ball and Jimmy Rousey.
In the late fall of 1990, we bid on a group of bank quality commercial real estate loans offered by the Resolution Trust Corporation (RTC) from a failed savings and loan in Norfolk, Virginia. We were the successful bidder on loans totaling approximately $6 million. Over the next several months, we had more success in purchasing performing loans at substantial discounts. A separate division was formed in our holding company to acquire low risk, high return commercial real estate loans and properties from the RTC and large institutional lenders. In the early 1990s, we pursued a new growth strategy and began to start new banks in strategic locations. We entered the Nicholasville market in 1991, Lexington in 1992, Richmond in 1996, and Somerset in 1997. Also in 1996 we acquired Lincoln Federal Savings and Loan in Stanford, growing our presence in Lincoln County.
It was also in the early 90s that we experienced a dramatic shift in course due to our exposure to Crown Financial Ministries. Jess, Randy, Doug, John and Jimmy went through a Crown small group bible study for the first time, learning the Biblical perspective of money and possessions. The impact of that study completely changed how we operate this company and also our personal view of stewardship.
We began to tithe our corporate earnings and starting in 1991, 10% of our after tax net income went to the River Foundation, a private foundation we established for just this purpose. In 1996 we increased our giving to the River Foundation and other charities to 10% of pre-tax, rather than after-tax net income.
The Crown study also convinced us of the wisdom of being debt free. With earnings from the loans we purchased from the RTC and the performance of our community banks, we retired our debt in 1994. We resolved to remain a low debt company and to only make acquisitions we can fully fund in three years or less.
The mid 90's was also when we began offering "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" training to each employee. This three-day workshop is an investment in the lives of our team members – helping provide tools and exercises for keeping balance in their personal and professional lives. Since 1994, more than 225 First Southern team members have completed the training.
In 1998 we acquired a substantial interest in a publicly-traded life insurance company headquartered in Springfield, Illinois - United Trust Group (UTG). With the acquisition and merger of another life company, ACAP, based in Houston, Texas early in 2007, UTG has total statutory assets of approximately $400 million.
Our Web site, www.fsnb.net, was launched in 1999, and we expanded our service offerings to include online banking.
In February, 2003, First Southern acquired South Central Bancshares, a $300 million bank holding company with strong community banks in Russellville, Princeton and Wickliffe. In 2005, the names of Citizens National Bank in Russellville, First Bank and Trust in Princeton and Citizens State Bank in Wickliffe, Barlow and Kevil were officially changed to First Southern National Bank.
After more than 20 years in operation, we felt the calling to formalize the purpose and values that guide our thinking. During 2006 we spent a great deal of time collecting ideas and input from every First Southern Team Member. From the information we collected came a strategic plan, as well as a firm grasp on our purpose, our mission and our core values, which continue to guide our decision making and define who we are and what we stand for.
Our passion for building a great company has never been stronger. We recognize that we have been given an opportunity to use our example, our influence and our resources to help others make wise financial decisions, and our desire is to do just that.
We continue to refine our strategies to fit an ever-evolving industry, while holding true to our small town roots. Our home office is still in Stanford, population 3,000. Regardless of the never-ending potential for change and growth within our industry, our company and our communities, we vow to never forget where we came from.


These are after 6 months results from a 3315 graft operation. The patient had FUT operation before coming us.
This is a good example for an early grow case and the patient is quite happy with the result at this stage.
The quality of the pictures may not be consistent since the result pictures are from the patient.
I once e-mailed Dr. Dogany's office regarding beard donor hair. I was advised that he did not use beard hair because he thought it was unsuitable.

So, It'S Not Just An Ordinary Coffee Shop As Usual, But It Looks Like A Coffee Shop With Home Living Gallery. 'Kedai Kopi 89' Serves Various Kinds Of Asian Menu Like Rice & Noodle Dishes. But, At That Time I Just Ordered Their Coffee & Cake. Their Coffee'S Pretty Good, But Unfortunately Not For Their Dessert (And The Cookies Also). I'M Not A Fan Of Green Tea But At The Time, There'S No Another Options Of Desserts. Overall, It'S Such A Cozy & Right Place For Having Your Coffee Moment Or Casual Meeting With Your Colleagues, But Still Not Satisfied With The Dessert.

Q: The type '' cannot be used as type parameter 'TEntityDto' in the generic type 'ICrudAppService' I was going through a tutorial on abp.io:
https://docs.abp.io/en/abp/latest/Tutorials/Part-1?UI=MVC#create-the-application-service
and I created the service:
using Abp.Application.Services;

public interface IBookAppService :
    ICrudAppService< //Defines CRUD methods
        BookDTO , //Used to show books
        Guid, //Primary key of the book entity
        PagedAndSortedResultRequestDto, //Used for paging/sorting on getting a list of books
        CreateUpdateBookDto, //Used to create a new book
        CreateUpdateBookDto> //Used to update a book
{

}

but the interface is showing an error:

The type 'BookDTO' cannot be used as type parameter 'TEntityDto' in the generic type or method 'ICrudAppService<TEntityDto, TPrimaryKey, TGetAllInput, TCreateInput, TUpdateInput>'. There is no implicit reference conversion from 'BookDTO' to 'Abp.Application.Services.Dto.IEntityDto<System.Guid>'.

BookDTO is as follows:
using Volo.Abp.Application.Dtos;

public class BookDTO : AuditedEntityDto<Guid>
{
    public string Name { get; set; }

    public BookType Type { get; set; }
    public DateTime PublishDate { get; set; }
    public float Price { get; set; }
}

A: CreateUpdateBookDto must be the same primary key type.
public class CreateUpdateBookDto: AuditedEntityDto<Guid> {
}

A: You are mixing:

*

*Abp.Application.Services.ICrudAppService<TEntityDto, TPrimaryKey, ...>

*Volo.Abp.Application.Dtos.IEntityDto<TKey>
For ABP Framework (abp.io), use the Volo.Abp package:

*

*Volo.Abp.Application.Services.ICrudAppService<TEntityDto, in TKey, ...>
Related: Which is the real ASP.NET Boilerplate project?

Files to change
IBookAppService.cs:
// using Abp.Application.Services;
// using Abp.Application.Services.Dto;
using Volo.Abp.Application.Dtos;
using Volo.Abp.Application.Services;

Cytogenetical diagnosis in paraffin-embedded fetoplacental tissue using comparative genomic hybridization
Tulin Ozcan, Nicole Burki, Vinita Parkash, Xiaohua Huang, Tanja Pejovic, Maurice J. Mahoney, David C. Ward
Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) is a FISH-related technique used to assess global chromosomal aberrations in a variety of human tumours. Recently CGH has been applied to cytogenetic analysis of fresh frozen fetoplacental tissues. Here we report the application of CGH to paraffin-embedded placental samples. Ten samples from paraffin-embedded blocks of 6 control placentas and fetoplacental tissue from 10 aneuploidies, and 2 unbalanced aberrations were evaluated. Balanced karyotype profiles were obtained from samples of healthy placentas and all samples from the same placenta appeared to have similar confidence intervals. CGH analysis of four cases of trisomy 21, three cases of trisomy 18, one case of trisomy 13, one case of trisomy 15 and one case of trisomy 7 all showed overrepresentation of the respective trisomic chromosome. The CGH profile was also in accordance with the karyotyping of a case with isochromosome 21. The CGH profile of a case with der (2)t(2;6)(q37.3;q22.2) revealed partial trisomy for chromosome 6 between q21 and q27. CGH may be a useful adjunct in prenatal genetic diagnosis when retrospective diagnosis is needed from archival samples. Copyright (C) 2000 John Wiley and Sons, Ltd.

Thomas Blass (December 25, 1941 – December 29, 2021) was an American social psychologist, Holocaust survivor, and professor of psychology at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. He is known for his work regarding Stanley Milgram and the Milgram experiment.

Early life and education
Blass was born in Budapest, Hungary, during World War II. In 1944, when he was a child, Nazis invaded Hungary and murdered over 550,000 of Blass's fellow Jews there. After the war ended, he left Hungary with his mother, originally settling at a displaced persons camp in Hallein, Austria. They remained there for a number of years before moving to Toronto, Canada, where Blass spent part of his childhood. He went on to receive his B.A. in mathematics from Yeshiva University, where he received his Ph.D. in social psychology in 1969.

Career
After graduating from university, Blass worked at the University of Maryland Psychiatric Institute, Sheppard-Pratt Hospital, and Downstate Medical Center. He spent most of his career at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County.

Writings
Blass is the author of the 2004 book The Man Who Shocked the World: The Life and Legacy of Stanley Milgram, the first biography of Milgram ever published. He has also written numerous journal articles about Milgram and his experiment.

Entertainment // Playing Games

Screenshot from "Hotel Dusk: Room 215" Courtesy of NintendoCourtesy of Nintendo
HOTEL DUSK: ROOM 215: ADVENTURE GAME. NINTENDO FOR DS. $29.99. ESRB
RATING: TEEN.
When you consider how much the Nintendo DS is known for open-ended and nontraditional games -- say, Animal Crossing or Brain Age -- Hotel Dusk: Room 215 is unusual in that it takes at least some experience with old-school adventure games to fully appreciate it.
The old point and click adventures that were so popular on PCs about 15 years ago would seem a perfect fit for the Nintendo DS. These games involved searching for certain items within an area to advance the story (usually something that more or less serves as a key), and the DS's touch screen streamlines the process and makes the interface much more intuitive.
It also helps that you hold the DS sideways, as you would a book, so when you scribble notes to help unravel the hotel's many mysteries, it only maximizes the effect. These features may be an old gimmick on the DS at this point, but tapping the stylus to do little things like knock on doors or pick up objects still seems fresh and immersive.
Otherwise, the game embraces a throwback mentality in everything from its noirish 1979 setting to the pencil-sketched characters animated in a slideshow fashion. The effect is not unlike A-Ha's "Take on Me" video, though the clean lines in Hotel Dusk aren't nearly as fussy and bear a closer resemblance to manga drawings. The individual images are surprisingly expressive -- aided in no small part by some spot-on pulp dialogue -- and are a nice reminder of how the simplest approaches can work wonders.
Most of the game is dialogue driven and plays off protagonist Karl Hyde's inquisitive nature as an ex-detective. The conversations are where most of the exposition takes place, depending on whether you ask the right questions, though early on the dialogue trees appear to lead to the same result.
In fact, Hotel Dusk in many ways seems like less of a game and more of an interactive story, albeit a very slow one. While you do get to explore the hotel and engage in some puzzle solving, the result of your actions inevitably triggers a conversation that advances the plot.
Seen from this perspective, the rigidly linear game play begins to make sense, though it also suffers. You can't so much as pick up a paperclip -- even though it's highlighted right there in front of you -- without talking to the right people first. These constraints haven't been part of the gaming norm for at least a decade, and it can be strange, if not tedious, to feel so aware of a set narrative unfurling.
At least the story itself is strange and multifaceted in a no-such-thing-as-coincidence way to keep things interesting. There's some very good presentation at work here, and your limited involvement in it is either a bonus or detriment, depending on how much reading you like in your games.


FEATURES This is a cashmere jacquard scarf shawl dual-use scarf, soft and skin-friendly. The big flower pattern is more temperament than the floral one. Exquisite curling, flat and easy to hook. Thickened design, suitable for spring, autumn and winter, good warmth.


A scholarship founded more than a decade ago by members of a former student organization at Arkansas Tech University continues to grow and evolve to serve Tech students.
The Cavaliers was a male social and service group at Arkansas Tech from 1964-76. Approximately 100 young men participated in the organization, which was a forerunner to the introduction of fraternities and sororities at Arkansas Tech in 1976. The Cavaliers transitioned to become a chapter of Phi Lambda Chi fraternity at that point, and an annual October reunion has kept the Cavalier tradition alive for more than four decades.
In 2007, Cavalier member and 1974 Tech graduate John Womack of Bentonville established the Cavaliers Scholarship within the Arkansas Tech University Foundation following the death of two Cavaliers — his brother, Mike Womack, and Danny Cameron.
Womack approached his Cavalier brothers at their fall reunion about joining the effort to help fund this scholarship and benefit a student at their alma mater. The going was slow in the early years, but following the 2013 death of another Cavalier, Kevin Caughman, the effort was reenergized.
Arkansas Tech Class of 1975 member Tad Lowrey of Newport Beach, Calif., offered to match all gifts in 2013 and 2014, and Womack and Lowrey both offered matching gifts for all 2017 contributions.
As a result, the fund is now $55,000, and two scholarships have been awarded. Because of the Cavaliers' close relationship with the former social group known as Alpha Lambda Zeta that became Zeta Tau Alpha, the former Cavaliers recently made the decision to partner with their former members and the current members of the Zeta Tau Alpha sorority to benefit a qualified student. Therefore, future grants will be made to qualifying members of Zeta Tau Alpha.
With this change, the 2017 challenge was extended to all Cavaliers, Phi Lambda Chi, Alpha Lambda Zeta and Zeta Tau Alpha alumni with a goal of reaching an endowment level of $100,000.
"It is through the generosity of the Cavaliers that the fund has been established, and it is our hope that all would join us in our effort to benefit a current qualified member of the Zeta Tau Alpha sorority," said Womack.
Alumni and friends wishing to donate to the fund may do so online at www.techties.atu.edu/cavaliers or by contacting Carolyn Ishee in the ATU Office of Advancement at cishee@atu.edu or (479) 498-6055.


Hair fall is a natural daily occurrence. Human head contains over 100,000 hairs and one normally sheds 100 to 150 hairs a day, every hair is genetically programmed. In general 85% of the hair on your head grow approximately 1 centimeter per month for about 2 to 6 years and then fall off. Hair loss is primarily caused by a combination of ageing, a change in hormones and a family history (genetic) of baldness. As a rule, the earlier hair loss begins, the more severe the baldness will become.

Is it allowed to for example set jump to left click that it jumps, unplug your mouse that it keeps on going until the person dies/opens inv etc... In the context of doing quests like spend 30m in a warp zone. Ofcourse in wilderness or claimed land you can build a afk water pool but for warzone?
nope. Afk jumping is bannable.
As everyone in this thread has stated, it's not allowed.
Yes, wild and claimed land you can build an AFK pool, but with warzones the whole point is there has to be player interaction. Setting your keyboard/mouse to do something with requires player interaction, but removes that interaction is not allowed.


Target Audience: Anyone who works with youth including counselors, educators, medical professionals, etc.
Dr. Beale will introduce how brain research has influenced our field in the last decade. Reflecting on the work of Bruce Perry regarding key brain concepts, we'll review how factors like poverty, neglect and trauma make it very difficult to intervene successfully with our clients. By increasing our understanding of their reactivity, reviewing strategies to manage crises, and following a specific sequence in treatment, providers will learn how to support and heal wounded brains.
Utilizing guidelines from the National Child Traumatic Stress Network, Dr. Beale will define Secondary Traumatic Stress/Compassion Fatigue. She will identify strategies to build resiliency and address Compassion Fatigue, first at the organizational level, then at the personal level, for both prevention and intervention in working with adolescents.

Country Homestead at Black Sheep Farm is delighted to announce another House Concert, as part of the Villani Piano Quartet's 2019 Northland tour – an afternoon of fine chamber music.
The group is the result of previous collaborations between the four players in various combinations and come together to present the unique richness of the piano quartet experience, and promote chamber music to audiences of all ages.
Piano quartet denotes a chamber music composition for piano and three other instruments, in this case Italian Flavio Villani on piano, Scot Sarah Spence with cello, Macedonian Marko Pop Ristov on violin, and New Zealand's Helen Bevin playing viola.
With their wide international experience, playing clarity, expression and balance, this promises to be an exciting concert with some of the best works of the repertoire: Mahler's only chamber music work with its haunting melodies, an indulgence in Spanish harmonies with the piano quartet by Turina, and NZ premier of the thrilling piano quartet by Vasks.
This promises to be a unique opportunity to experience a high calibre quartet in an intimate location. Don't miss out.
An opportunity to see a high quality quartet in an intimate setting.

Police recruit horseplay incident could cost City of Racine $50,000
RACINE, Wis. (CBS 58) -- Horseplay from a Racine police recruit could cost the city $50,000 in workers compensation benefits.
The City Attorney's Office says the recruit was messing around during a training class in Kenosha last year. The recruit grabbed the legs of a Kenosha police recruit, hurting them. The injury led to more than $70,000 in medical bills.
Kenosha and Racine have reached a $50,000 settlement.
The Racine Common Council will vote on the settlement next Tuesday.

Q: SQL use a certain field if another is null i have an sql2008 server in which i need to calculate a discount.
the fields at play are SuggestedRetailPrice, BasePrice, and AdPrice
The logic is like this:
if AdPrice is null
   return baseprice/suggestedretailprice
else
   if AdEndDate < GETDATE() // Ad is still valid
       return adprice/SuggestedRetailPrice
   endif
endif

if the above is confusing, here's what I need to do:
Determine whether to use AdPrice or BasePrice depending on if the Ad has expired by comparing AdEndDate to GETDATE(). Then use that field and divide by SuggestedRetailPrice and compare with a value. i.e. (AdPrice/SuggestedRetailPrice) >= 0.6
is something like this even possible to do with one query? i know there are case statements but i am not sure if they are applicable to this situation.

A: You can also embed a CASE statement within ISNULL() to simplify it still further:
SELECT
    ISNULL
      (
        CASE
            WHEN AdEndDate < GETDATE()
            THEN AdPrice
        END,
        BasePrice
      ) / SuggestedRetailPrice

A: Yes indeed - CASE allows you to project a derived value, even through multiple branches or switch statements. The general format is as follows:
SELECT ...
    CASE WHEN AdPrice is null THEN baseprice/suggestedretailprice
       WHEN AdEndDate < GETDATE() -- Ad is still valid
       THEN adprice/SuggestedRetailPrice
       ELSE 42 -- Project a value for the column if the other branches aren't matched
    END AS MyValue

Local student-athlete earns top honors in essay contest
Eastside High School senior Nylee Alston is one of just a handful of winners of a nationwide essay grant competition for student-athletes. Her essay was among 10 chosen for top honors from a pool of more than 1,000 entrants to the U.S. Tennis Association Foundation's National Junior Tennis and Learning (NJTL) competition. She earned a $5,000 award.
For the last five years, Alston has been involved with Aces in Motion (AIM), a free after-school program for middle and high school students that, according to its website, "promotes academic achievement, life skills development and healthy lifestyles," primarily through tennis, but also through such activities as college trips, tutoring, and other enrichment activities. AIM is a chapter of the NJTL Network.
"The program and the coaches really push you to be the best you can be," Alston said. "It's helped me feel more confident."
"We are so proud of Nylee, not only for winning such a prestigious award but for being the first AIM participant to do so," said AIM Executive Director Addison Staples.
The topic for this year's essay competition was "Everyone measures success differently. How do you measure success in your academics, tennis and character development?"
Alston wrote about using a 'tennis mindset' to achieve success — working with people, patience, leadership and pushing oneself.. Her essay also stressed the importance of education.
"Success is more than being famous or having money, because you can lose it at any time," Alston wrote.. "But education is something that you will always have and you could take that and be something better with it."
According to a news release from the Alachua County School District, Alston and her fellow national award winners were recognized at a special virtual ceremony in late September that included such guest speakers as 18-time Grand Slam champion Chris Evert, Daymond John of ABC's "Shark Tank" and WWE star and former Gator football player Thaddeus Bullard.
Four other AIM students were state level winners in the essay competition. They include: Howard Bishop Middle eighth-grader Jadah Clark in the 14 and Under Female category; Eastside High senior Audrianna Mosley in the 16 and Under Female category; Eastside High junior Javon Marshall in the 16 and Under Male category; and Eastside High junior Jeffery Hamilton in the 18 and Under Male category. Alston was also state winner in the 18 and Under Female category.
Lauren Asmus is the new full-time director of the board of directors at startGNV, a non-profit dedicated to growing the innovation ecosystem of Greater Gainesville. Asmus follows Lauren Hemingway, program director for startGNV's Tech Talent Initiative.
"The placement of a full-time staff position is a growth milestone for startGNV, allowing us to continue to expand our organizational capacity and community impact. Lauren Asmus's strong background in community relations and project management is a great asset and we are so excited to welcome her to the team," says Aidan Augustin, startGNV Board president, co-founder, and president of Feathr.
According to a news release from startGNV, Asmus brings nine years of experience as a communications and public outreach strategist, serving a diverse array of corporate and nonprofit clients. She specializes in community organizing, public relations, and public affairs. She moved to Gainesville in 2019, and served as communications director for CareerSource North Central Florida. After completing her master's degree in Communications and Media at Florida State University, Asmus served two years as an Americorps Volunteer in Service to America in Billings, Montana.
For the past two years, the volunteer-run organization has been facilitated by a working board. "All of our efforts at startGNV are a result of the enthusiasm our local employers have about the potential of a thriving tech and startup scene," says Lindsey Day, Hiring Committee board member at startGNV and assistant director of Talent Acquisition and Development at Infotech.
Hemingway was recognized for her "outstanding role" in the launch of the Tech Talent Initiative, including a full organizational rebrand, website, and jobs portal. "Her hard work and commitment to the volunteer network has resulted in a great year for startGNV and the Greater Gainesville innovation ecosystem.

Good morning good people of Calaveras County.
Just curious does anyone know if we have something like this in Calaveras County, it was in My Mother Lode.
'Sonora, CA — A local senior group wants to find some wood splitters willing to donate their skills for a good cause.
The Sierra Senior Providers, Inc. (SSPI) is asking for the public's help to keep seniors toasty this winter by a nice blazing fire. Volunteers are needed to chop or deliver firewood for the Senior Center's Firewood for Home Heating Program this year and assist in preparing for next winter as well. The program is directed toward lower-income, homebound and frail Tuolumne County residents age 60 and older whose primary source of heat in the winter is firewood.
For more information about volunteering, contact Leon Casas Jr. at (209) 770-5986.
I'd Really appreciate any info or a number to call to help out our elders and keep them nice and warm here in our county.
There is nothing normal about Bret Harte High School.
Have not heard of such a thing in Calaveras but a wonderful idea indeed. I'll even suggest a name if we could get some high school kids to help - Seniors Helping Seniors. Perhaps call the Calaveras Senior Center (754-3967) or Area 12 Agency on Aging (532-6272).
^ Do Wooders have been around for ages!
How much good does a do wood do if a do wood could do wood?

Dull-yellow fluorescent lights and the smell of industrial-strength antiseptic meet you when you enter the mortuary at the very edge of Braamfontein.
A sense of dread, of being in a mortuary, accompanies you when you enter the grey building wedged between Constitutional Hill and the Wits Esselen Residence.
What these experiences don't prepare you for is the warmth and passion of the Wits medical students you find inside – there to fulfil the requirement that they learn to work with "fresh corpses".
"A lot of these students see an autopsy for the first time and get turned off," said Lawrence Hill, research student and entomologist at the Johannesburg Forensic Pathology Service (FPS) medico-legal mortuary in Braamfontein.
Hill explained how the small number of medical students who specialise in forensics end up working as pathologists. Most choose lucrative jobs as anatomical pathologists for private labs.
This leaves state pathologists working in one of the two main mortuaries in the province ̶ Germiston and Johannesburg ̶ doing nothing less than 20 autopsies a week, almost double the weekly average.
Hill was frank about the difficulties of dealing with corpses on a daily basis and the kind of effect it can have on you.
"We see everything from [people who were] stabbed to death, jumped off of buildings, car accidents and burns victims who mostly came from informal settlements," said Hill.
He said counselling was provided to students at the Charlotte Maxeke Hospital and they were encouraged to talk in groups about their experiences.
A student called Trudie said the "scary reality didn't really hit you" until you were faced with a recently deceased body.
Kirsten Morley-Jepherson said she was "really lucky to have a good support system at home".
"Once you vent you really feel a lot better".
Masello Phasha recalled how she was "literally shaking" when she faced a corpse for the first time.
Phasha said Monday was "very different".
"The child was still fully dressed and still had shoes on," Phasha said.
Despite this, Phasha said she'd "surprisingly" had no nightmares and she hoped to go into trauma surgery but feared the always-on-call lifestyle would be "too demanding".
Abigail Keane is a student whose entire family is in the medical field. She said, despite realising "how quickly things can go wrong and how many lives we lose", it was the daily opportunity of helping people in a tangible way that made it all worth it.
The mortuary serves as the "academic seat" of the Wits division of forensic medicine and pathology. It provides forensic pathology services to the SA Police Service and the Department of Justice and families of the deceased. This is over and above its teaching and research responsibilities at the university's Faculty of Health Sciences.

Rohit Sharma, Navdeep Saini Ruled Out Of 2nd Test vs Bangladesh | Cricket News
Dec 20, 2022 cricket ndtv sports, INDIA, rohit gurunath sharma
India captain Rohit Sharma and pacer Navdeep Saini have been ruled out of the second Test against Bangladesh. He had incurred a thumb injury in the ODI series and is yet to recover. In a release, the BCCI confirmed of Rohit's absence from the second Test and also suggested that Sanii will be unavailable too. "Rohit Sharma is under the care of the BCCI Medical Team following his left thumb injury, which he sustained during the 2nd ODI against Bangladesh in Dhaka," BCCI said in a release."The Medical Team is of the opinion that the injury needs some more time to heal completely before the Indian captain can bat and field with full intensity. He will continue his rehab and will not be available for the second and final Test against Bangladesh."Navdeep Saini is also ruled out of the second Test owing to an abdominal muscle strain. The fast bowler will now report to the NCA for further management of his injury," the release further read.Earlier on Monday, reports of Rohit's unavailability had surfaced, suggesting the India skipper hasn't yet fully healed from the thumb injury he had sustained in the 2nd ODI of the series. Though Rohit had come out to bat lower down the order in that match, he himself had confirmed that the injury didn't look good.Rohit then flew to Mumbai to get an expert's opinion on the matter. He was subsequently ruled out of the third and final ODI of the series while a big question mark was put on his availability for Tests.India, having comprehensively beaten Bangladesh in the first Test, would look to win the second Test as well, and complete a 2-0 sweep.India's updated squad for 2nd Test against Bangladesh:KL Rahul (C), Shubman Gill, Cheteshwar Pujara (VC), Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant (WK), KS Bharat (WK), Ravichandran Ashwin, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Shardul Thakur, Mohd.

Middle East government, politics and policy
Radicalism and Political Reform in the Islamic and Western Worlds
Author: Kai Hafez, University of Erfurt
Date Published: July 2010
Over the last decade, political Islam has been denounced in the Western media and in the surrounding literature as a terrorist or fascist movement that is entirely at odds with Western democratic ideology. Kai Hafez's book overturns these arguments, contending that, despite its excesses, as a radical form of political opposition the movement plays a central role in the processes of democratization and modernization, and that these processes have direct parallels in the history and politics of the West. By analyzing the evolution of Christian democratization through the upheavals of the Reformation, colonisation, fascism, and totalitarianism, the book shows how radicalism and violence were constant accompaniments to political change, and that these components - despite assertions to the contrary - are still part of Western political culture to this day.
First stringent comparison of political developments in the Islamic world and the West
Academic revision of the view of Islamic fundamentalism's contribution to political change
Reassessment of the role of political Islam between liberal modernity, democracy, and 'Islamofascism'
Critical debate of political violence as exerted by authoritarian systems, terrorists, or Western foreign policies and of its impact on political stagnation of large parts of the Muslim world
'This well-thought, well-written, well-argued book is a welcome addition to the debate on Islam, democracy and modernity. It aims at shattering stereotypes and well-ingrained ideas about the alleged militancy of Islamism or 'political Islam' and its anti-democratic character as well as its opposition to modernity. The remarkable ease and clarity with which Hafez writes render this book a joy to read.' Joseph Alagha, International Affairs
Part I. Modernity:
1. Concepts of modernity: reform, reformation and radicalism
2. Political cultures and social movements: the social rationality of cultural change
Part II. Democracy:
3. The discourse of democratization: grey zones on the intersection of religion and secularism
4. Political system change: the radicals' democracy
Part III. Political Violence:
5. Authoritarianism: dictatorship between fascism and modernization
6. Imperialism: autocracy, democracy and violence
7. Terrorism and non-violent resistance: extremism and pacifism across cultures
Conclusion: from 'holy war' to democracy? The current state of Islamic and Western modernity.

"They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread."
Go to a church where you can learn more about Jesus. You must turn to God in repentance and have faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. Every Sunday, church should also offer enjoyable company. The apostles devoted themselves to fellowship - togetherness in harmony. Church isn't supposed to be a place where you walk in, do your thing, and walk out. It is meant to be a fellowship experience. Do you take an active interest in those around you? The disciples devoted themselves to fellowship. That is part of the balanced diet of Christianity. Authoritative teaching and making church an enjoyable place for fellowship.
What abut the Lord's Supper - Communion. grateful remembering of what our Lord did at Calvary. They have a very simple name for it -- breaking of bread. The original Eucharist was an entire meal given in honor of Jesus. We continue to stress that it is about remembering Jesus, because the basic bottom line of what he said at the Last Supper is "When you do this, do it in remembrance of me."
Cal to mind Calvary. Call to mind sacrificial death. Call to mind love for you. Call to mind that God cares about you. Call to mind that Jesus died for you.
There is one more thing that you should expect at church. Earnest prayer from the heart, Earnest prayer is a part of the Christian balanced diet.
"You should love the Lord your God with all you heart and mind and soul and strength, and you should love your neighbor as yourself."
Awe - "Everyone was filled with awe, and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles." (vs. 43) Love does that. Love prepares us for divine activity. Whenever God is at work in a church, it has one particular aim...to bring hearts closer to God.
Love makes church a gathering for giving to needs. You need to attend a church where there is a believer's disposition. Are you disposed toward giving? You can give without loving, but you cannot love without giving. It is about friendly commitment, a believer's disposition. The disciples sold their property and possessions to give to the needy - a benefit distribution. Only love can do that.
Love makes church a gathering for growing character. There is a joy in being able to help people. Believers visit each other, meet for a meal at a diner, take journeys together, and have a buoyant dedication in their Christianity. That is where character-growing often takes place, because even when there is trouble, we share heartaches and cares too with buoyant dedication.
Church needs to be a place where people are growing in their character. That is when God adds new people.
Have you discovered a life for praising God? The key is to be thankful for the small stuff. It will change your life. Looking for things to be grateful for will make you a God-praiser. People around you will be blessed by your attitude. This is a result of the Holy Spirit living inside your heart.

Virtual Instruments Opens R&D Center in London's Tech City
Original post by Yahoo Finance
Team to Focus on End-to-End Product Development to Drive Continued Innovation
Virtual Instruments, the leader in Infrastructure Performance Management (IPM) for physical, virtual and cloud computing environments, today announced it is opening a research and development center in London's Tech City. Building on the company's strong European presence, the center will serve as Virtual Instruments' EMEA Engineering Headquarters, with the team focusing on end-to-end product development and working with customers across the region.
The Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, said:
"I am pleased to welcome Virtual Instruments into Tech City, recognizing the talent pool of engineers London is able to provide through its universities and dynamic cluster of tech firms. The arrival of another fast-growth company not only generates important new jobs for the city but underlines London's position as global leader in this sector."
Initially, Virtual Instruments will be recruiting for software engineers and software QA engineers. Over time, that will be expanded to add support, management and hardware engineering roles to the team.
"Innovation is the foundation of Virtual Instruments' success, and it will enable us to continue delivering industry-leading products," said Barry Cooks, vice president of engineering, Virtual Instruments. "The vibrancy and drive of the Tech City community matches our engineering culture, which is built around small teams of very smart people working hard to solve real-world customer problems. Our goal is to hire the best and the brightest people and provide a creative environment where they are free to design and deliver their ideas."
After considering a number of locations around the world, Virtual Instruments chose London's Tech City because of its strong engineering talent base, proximity to world class universities with top computer science and engineering programs and an engineering culture driven by innovation. The Virtual Instruments office is at 81 Rivington Street, right in the heart of Tech City.
Virtual Instruments partnered with the Tech City Investment Organisation (TCIO) and London & Partners on its search for a location in London. These organizations provided information on the business and talent landscape in the United Kingdom, introduced Virtual Instruments to similar companies in the area and arranged for the company to meet with and explore research activities in local universities.
Benjamin Southworth, deputy CEO at the Tech City Investment Organization, said: "We are thrilled to welcome Virtual Instruments to Tech City, a move which is further proof of East London's status as the top European location for international tech businesses. Throughout our discussions with Virtual Instruments, and as we showed them around the area, London's strong talent base and Tech City's unique vibrancy really stood out as selling points for the capital. We look forward to them becoming part of the community here."
Driving Continued Innovation
Global 2000 organizations are looking to leverage virtualization and cloud technologies to deliver more flexibility, but contend with an increasing amount of risk as they migrate mission-critical applications to private cloud environments. Ensuring that the private cloud can deliver the necessary levels of performance and availability requires new capabilities for an Infrastructure Performance Management platform that can provide visibility throughout all system layers in a multi-vendor environment.
