Triasicul târziu este cea de-a treia și ultima dintre cele trei epoci ale perioadei Triasice pe scara timpului geologic. Extincția Triasic-Jurasic a început în această epocă, aceasta fiind una dintre cele cinci extincții în masă majore ale Pământului. Din punct de vedere cronologic, Triasicul târziu se întinde de la 237 la 201,3 milioane de ani de ani în urmă. Acesta este împărțit în vârstele: Carnian, Norian și Rhaetian.

Mulți dintre primii dinozauri au evoluat în timpul Triasicului târziu, printre care Plateosaurus, Coelophysis și Eoraptor.

Extincția care a început în timpul Triasicului târziu a dus la dispariția a aproximativ 76% din toate speciile terestre și marine, precum și aproape 20% din familiile taxonomice. Deși Triasicului târziu nu s-a dovedit a fi la fel de distrugător ca și Permianul, care a avut loc acum aproximativ 50 de milioane de ani în urmă și a distrus aproximativ 70% din speciile terestre, 57% din familiile de insecte și 95% din viața marină, totuși, a condus la o scădere semnificativă a numărului de populații ale multor populații de organisme vii.

Mai exact, Triasicul târziu a avut efecte negative asupra grupurilor de conodonți și amoniți. Aceste grupuri au servit odată ca fosile stratigrafice, ceea ce a făcut posibilă identificarea duratei de viață fezabile a straturilor multiple ale Triasicului. Grupurile au fost grav afectate în timpul epocii și au dispărut la scurt timp după aceea. În ciuda populațiilor mari care au dispărut odată cu intrarea în Triasicul târziu, multe familii, cum ar fi pterozauri, crocodili, mamifere și pești, au fost foarte puțin afectate. Totuși, alte familii, cum ar fi bivalvele, gasteropodele, reptilele marine și brachiopoda au fost afectate foarte mult și multe specii au dispărut în acest timp.

Cauzele extincției
Majoritatea dovezilor sugerează că principala cauză a extincției a fost creșterea activității vulcanice. Ca urmare a rupturii supercontinentului Pangeea, a existat o crestere a activitatii vulcanice pe scară largă, care a eliberat cantități mari de dioxid de carbon. La sfârșitul Triasicului, au avut loc erupții masive de-a lungul zonei de ruptură, cunoscută sub numele de Provincia Magmatică a Atlanticului Central, pentru aproximativ 500.000 de ani. Aceste erupții intense au fost clasificate ca erupții de bazalt, care reprezintă un tip de activitate vulcanică la scară largă, ce eliberează un volum enorm de lavă, pe lângă dioxidul de sulf și dioxidul de carbon.

Creșterea bruscă a nivelurilor de dioxid de carbon se consideră că a mărit efectul de seră, care a acidifiat oceanele și a ridicat temperatura medie a aerului. Ca rezultat al schimbării condițiilor biologice din oceane, 22% dintre familiile marine au dispărut. În plus, 53% din genurile marine și 76-86% din toate speciile au dispărut, permițând dinozaurilor să aibă o prezențî dominantă în Jurasic. În timp ce majoritatea cercetătorilor sunt de acord că activitatea vulcanică a fost principala cauză a extincției, alte teorii sugerează că extincția a fost declanșată de impactul unui asteroid, sau de schimbările climatice sau creșterea nivelului mării.

Coffee Cup Phillies: Mike Sweeney
27 SEPT 2010: Roy Halladay, Mike Sweeney, Brian Schneider and Ben Francisco
Phillies clinch the NL East Championship after an 8 - 0 victory over the Washington Nationals
Mike Sweeney (first base / pinch hitter)
Acquired: August 4, 2010 - Traded by the Mariners to the Phillies for cash considerations
Mike Sweeney was contemplating retirement after the 2009 season. He returned to the Mariners on a minor league contract at the start of the season. At the time of the signing, much of the sports media did not expect Sweeney to make the team, but after batting .500 in Spring Training, he earned his spot as the 25th man on the roster and he hit a respectable .263 with 6 HR in 30 games.
Fast forward to the first week of August; a time when things didn't look great for the Phillies. The team entered the month trailing the Braves in the NL East and both Chase Utley and Shane Victorino were sidelined with injuries. To make matters worse, Ryan Howard sprained his left ankle and was put on the DL on August 3rd. Needing to keep pace in the division, the Phillies acquired Sweeney from the last place Mariners to cover first base while Howard recovered.
Although he only bat .231 with 2 HR as a Phillie, Sweeney became a fan favorite in Philadelphia, referring to the city as "baseball heaven" and bringing a youthful enthusiasm to the game that is not often seen from a 36 year old veteran in the twilight of his career. He was often shown in the dugout giving massive bear hugs to everyone within arms reach. In his 16 year career, Sweeney had never appeared in a post-season game, and he referred to this stage of his career as a chance at a storybook ending.
The Phillies were knocked out of the playoffs by the Giants in the NLCS, but Sweeney was able to add a post-season appearance to his major league career. His last career at-bat took place in the second game of the League Championship Series against the Cincinnati Reds on August 8th. In what would be his only post-season appearance, Sweeney pinch hit for Jose Contreras in the bottom of the 7th and singled off of Aroldis Chapman.
Due in part to his late season arrival and in part to Topps holding an exclusive MLB licence, Sweeney did not appear in a Phillies uniform on any baseball cards. The closest this came to happening was a sign that was produced for Citizens Bank Park that was hung at the right field gate entrance when Sweeney was in the starting lineup (seen in the photo above; top right). It was done in the style of a 2009 Topps card to match the style of the rest of the lineup.
Earlier today, Sweeney threw out the first pitch of the season for the Kansas City Royals, for whom he played as catcher, first base and designated hitter for the first 13 seasons of his career. He signed a one day contract with the Royals to retire with his original team.

Fulfilling the Promise of Virtual Worlds
Posted on February 25, 2014 Updated on February 25, 2014
Guest blogger Darren Keegan, Director, UK, Tycoon Systems, lets us in on the secret of why businesses have been wary of virtual worlds – and explains why they are missing out.
At a recent Future of Work Masterclass event I presented on the use of an IndustryMasters business simulation within a bespoke Virtual World named VirBELA. The talk included inworld footage of globally dispersed virtual teams grappling with business issues in a highly-charged competitive environment with the only real difference being that we were watching avatars instead of the people themselves. We heard and were able to watch arresting behaviours such as team conflict, negative and positive body language, exceptional levels of engagement and critical decision making as it happened in-world. All of which had very clear and obvious applications for business use. Which is why the question I was asked almost immediately did not come as a great surprise: "Whatever happened to Second Life?".
In this article I'll try to give a more detailed and thoughtful response than I gave at the time, but even there I was able to recognise that the answer had as much to do with what happened to virtual reality and its value to business as it did the progeny of Linden Labs. For further context, it's worth considering that in Gartner's 2013 Hype Cycle for Emerging Technologies Virtual Reality still finds itself rooted firmly in "The Trough of Disillusionment" with an expected wait of 5 to 10 years before potentially reaching the "Plateau of Productivity" where mainstream adoption begins. And whilst Second Life's 10th Anniversary last year was an opportunity to celebrate a marketplace with over 2m virtual goods for sale and revenues of $3.2bn – hardly a failure – its use by business has all but disappeared. So what happened?
Firstly, it is arguable that the very public failure of many virtual world projects has had an arresting influence on its growth. Research has indicated that over 90 percent of corporate virtual world projects failed within 18 months and less than 10 percent of virtual world registrants become active users, figures largely attributed to technology issues with bandwidth requirements, rendering speeds and the stability of virtual world platforms. A more significant yet largely unheralded issue is likely to relate to issues of privacy and security within virtual worlds, where firms simply do not trust them enough to openly discuss or work on sensitive material.
Yet, technology has improved immeasurably in the past decade and many of the issues which beset the first forays into virtual worlds by pioneering companies such as Cisco and IBM have been largely addressed with bespoke and secure platforms such as VirBELA offering further solutions to issues of security. From research across a staggering range of disciplines we know that virtual worlds offer a host of benefits, particularly where team collaboration across multiple geographies is a necessity. With numerous studies accentuating the superiority of virtual worlds over alternative collaboration modes such as videoconferencing, both in terms of cost and bandwidth requirements.
Our own work demonstrates that the missing link here may, in fact, be purpose. Simply put companies have been unsure what use to make of virtual worlds. Now, simulation technology has progressed to the point that almost any business issue can be modelled in an effective way allowing organisations to address issues such as M&A activity, Diversity and Innovation, Talent Management processes and so on. Yet the potential now exists to build models within a virtual world where the environment itself can be leveraged to reflect the themes being discussed. Genuinely global teams can be formed around business issues which resonate with employees in an environment specifically adapted for synchronous and asynchronous use, where geography can no longer be responsible for the distance and dysfunction common to virtual teams. A place where the potential of virtual worlds may finally be realised.

Exploring mega-trends with GEA
Posted on February 25, 2014 Updated on March 18, 2014
by Emma Birchall, Head of Research, Future of Work
Earlier this month I was in Dusseldorf delivering one of our new workshop formats for engineering firm GEA – a combination of our latest research, insights from the Future of Work Research Consortium and company-specific data.
GEA holds regular monthly meetings of their senior HR leadership and wanted to initiate discussion about their future HR strategy by preceding one of their meetings with a workshop discussing the mega-trends and how they are impacting GEA, and in particular its HR function. It was a useful opportunity to take time to think about these mega-trends, which affect and drive much of the company's HR strategy.
The workshop we devised was divided into two parts: a morning session during which we discussed the mega-trends we've identified during our research and an afternoon session which applied these trends to GEA and extrapolated the challenges they are likely to face in light of these trends.
The one thing we needed to make the afternoon session work was data on how GEA is currently dealing with major challenges. To obtain this we sent our Future of Work diagnostic to all attendees in advance of the workshop, and invited them to complete it and send it to other members of their teams.
Using this information, we were able to give the attendees three different perspectives on mega-trends: how they will affect the corporate community as a whole; the trends FoW members feel will be most important over the coming two decades; and the trends and challenges GEA considers most important. There were often differences in these data sets: for example, a number of things FoW members thought would be important were less important to GEA. We were then able to examine this at a deeper level and encourage attendees to consider the reasons for the different perspectives, weighing up whether their industry make some issues less relevant than others, or whether there are some trends to which they need to pay more attention.
The real value of this for GEA is that we were able to give them access to what we know about trends and help them apply it to their current challenges and to a specific rather than speculative future.
We're hoping to run some more of these workshops over the coming months – contact tina@hotspotsmovement.com if you'd like to learn more.

Five insights on engagement
We had a busy start to the week as we hosted our Engagement 2.0 masterclass in London. It was a diverse event offering a wide range of perspectives on the topic, so towards the end of the day, we asked our delegates to think about – and then share – the key insights they were going to take away. Here are the top five…
The link between engagement and performance
In her keynote, Lynda pointed out that the popularity of engagement surveys is based on the belief that measuring engagement is a way of measuring performance. But some recent research suggests that low performers can be highly engaged and high performers disenfranchised. If this is true, and engagement isn't as reliable an indicator of performance as previously thought, what does that mean for the future of the engagement survey? And, what are the implications of tying managers' bonuses to engagement scores?
Is HR ready for Big Data?
There's no doubt that Big Data holds a lot of promise. Guest speaker Guy Halfteck gave us his perspective on the potential of Big Data has to help companies identify the best talent for each role. Guy's company, Knack, uses gaming to generate real-time data about people's skills that can predict an individual's performance in a role. But, as one of the videos we commissioned with Central Saint Martin's highlighted, there is still a lot of work for companies to do when it comes to ensuring they are extracting the most relevant data and interpreting it correctly.
Appreciating diversity
One thing our delegates were concerned about was how to customise engagement approaches to reflect diversity. While organisations have traditionally focused on adapting their offerings based on gender, race, disability and other visible indicators, our members felt that diversity ran deeper and that truly customised approaches must now reflect life stages and aspirations.
Renegotiating the employee/employer relationship
The workers of the future won't be looking for a "permanent" role – they'll be looking to organisations to add to their career portfolio by providing them with opportunities that will help build their own personal brand. In light of this, how can organisations prepare themselves to renegotiate the deal? How can they create portable credentials that employees can transfer into their next role?
Managing intangible assets
As our recent newsletter highlighted, health and wellbeing is at the forefront of many workers' minds. At the masterclass, it was pointed out that in the days when jobs were for life, employers took care of employee health and wellbeing – a priority that fell by the wayside as careers models shifted. The big question is how organisations can re-integrate health and wellbeing into their outlook given that in future employees will be on the scene for a few years at most.
And finally…We all need more sleep!
One of Lynda's key take-aways from Davos was the need for a solid eight hours' sleep. Lack of sleep causes poor decision-making, poor health, and can even trigger conditions such as Alzheimer's. But does anyone but the most eccentric of senior executives have the opportunity to take a nap in the middle of the day? One of our delegates said their company encourages naps – and perhaps in future this practice should become more widespread.

Michael C. Hall Sings Bob Dylan's "I'll Keep It With Mine" on Tits of Clay Belasco EP - Available on CD, Vinyl and iTunes
Few months back Michael C. Hall's role as Hedwig on 'Headwig and the Angry Inch' was a hit. One of his performances on the show of him singing Bob Dylan's 'I'll Keep With Mine', will be available on CD, Vinyl, and in digital form via iTunes. Out on 9/11. Click here and here for more.
Tits of Clay is an alter ego for the band that plays the Angry Inch on Broadway. A mostly punk rock cover group, Tits of Clay have been referred to as the punk rock Sha-na-na! Over the past year they've performed with Neil Patrick Harris, Fred Schneider, David Johansen, Michael C. Hall, Theo Kogan and Chantal Claret…. A Pledge Music campaign was run to raise money to make an EP called "Belasco" the name of the theater Hedwig plays in, as well as the man who built the theater (the legend is that David Belasco still haunts the theater, though as much as we've tried to taunt him we've yet to see anything!)

Starting Monday May 10, Fast Company will have a new star on the team: Rick Tetzeli, 48, joins us as executive editor. Rick has a unique background. He was the top editor at Entertainment Weekly for six years and previously was an editor at Fortune, where he oversaw technology coverage and had a meteoric rise to the No. 2 position. Entertainment Weekly was a National Magazine Awards finalist five times under Rick's leadership, including three times for the coveted General Excellence award; Fortune was twice nominated for General Excellence when Rick served as the No. 2.
Over the past year, Rick has been running Assignment Detroit, an ambitious journalistic effort that utilizes the joint resources of Time, Sports Illustrated, Fortune, CNNMoney.com and other Time Inc. properties. "I loved the project," Rick says, "but what's happening at Fast Company is so exciting, I couldn't resist. The magazine has amazing momentum, and the website is on fire."
Tetzeli's talents should help us expand further, as we continue to seek compelling, unexpected content that is both useful and engaging. "I worked alongside Rick at Fortune in the late 90s," says Fast Company editor Bob Safian, "and I've always wanted to work with him again. He's a good guy, a great editor and understands how our world is changing. He knows Hollywood, Silicon Valley and Wall Street, and he knows how to keep things fun." Fast Company's digital lead, executive editor Noah Robischon, says: "Rick and and I go way back. We talked at length before he made this move, and he's exactly the right editor to take this magazine into the future. I'm thrilled to be working with him again."
Fast Company was named a finalist for Magazine of the Year earlier this year by the National Magazine Awards, received the 2010 Best in Business General Excellence award for magazines from the Society of American Business Writers and Editors, and for the third consecutive year was named to AdWeek's Hot List. Traffic to the fastcompany.com website has more than tripled in the past year, attracting 3.6 million unique visitors in the month of April, according to Omniture. Fast Company's print edition has an audited, paid circulation of 725,000.
I was previously the Special Projects Editor at Fast Company. I curated content and booked speakers for Fast Company events such as Innovation Uncensored, Most Creative People, and Masters of Design


Gulf Savannah Region is around the Gulf of Carpentaria.
Gulf Savannah Region is a large area of savannah grasslands, open woodlands and melaleuca swamps in north western Queensland.
Its northern parts are covered in mangroves and tidal creeks inhabited by crocodiles, and known for Karumba, Normanton and Burketown.
In the western parts are some outback national parks like Lawn Hill Gorge and the world famous Riversleigh Fossil Field.
In the south east are some gemfields around Croydon, Georgetown, Forsayth and Einasleigh.
There are also the famous Undara Lava Tubes, Gobbold Gorge, and some history of Australian explorers such as Burke and Wills expedition.
The road from Innisfail on the coast takes you first past Millaa Millaa and Ravenshoe in the southern Atherton Tablelands, then Innot Hot Springs and the mining town Mt Garnet, past Fourty Mile Scrub National Park to Lynd Junction - the roadhouse that is known for the smallest bar in Queensland. South from here, the Gregory Developmental Road goes past Greenvale and Bluewater Springs Roadhouse to Charters Towers. Greenvale is a tiny town that has the pub that Slim Dusty sang about in his song "Three Rivers Hotel". There is a caravan park in town.
If you turn west in the Lynd Junction, you first come to the famous Undara Lava Tubes, left behind by a shield volcano that erupted here 190,000 years ago. In the eruption that lasted for three months, the outer layers of the huge lava flows cooled and froze into a crust. The hot lava kept flowing inside the tubes, and finally left behind the huge hollow basalt chambers. You can visit them on tours that depart from the restaurant, accommodation and camping ground.
Back on the main road, the next town west is Georgetown. It used to be a busy town but today it's just a quiet little place in the middle of gem fields. The town's tourist attraction is the Ted Elliott Mineral Collection in The Terrestrial – a huge collection of colourful gemstones from all around the world, very beautiful, and interesting. If you happen to stay over night, there is a pub with hotel rooms, Latara Resort Motel, and Midway Caravan Park.
West from Georgetown is Croydon - once a large gold mining town with more than 30 pubs and 5000 mines around it. A historic Courthouse, a jail and an old school are still here, as well as a few old miners cottages, a Chinese Temple site, the "Oldest Store in OZ", the Town Hall and the modern train station. Gulflander shuttles once-weekly between here and Normanton; and you can stay at the Club Hotel, which is the town's pub, or the Golden Caravan Park.
North-east from Croydon is Normanton - once the port for Croydon gold rush, and still the busiest town in the Gulf Savannah region. The most famous buildingis of course the Purple Pub, but Albion Hotel and the Central are nice too. Other pretty buildings include the Shire Council, Westpac Bank, the Burns Philp & Co Ltd which is where the library is today, and there is also an amount of colourfully painted tackle shops, butcheries, fuel and car mechanic shops. Normanton has also got two of Australia's Big Things: the Big Barramundi and Krys the Big Crocodile - a replica of an eight metres saltie found in the Gulf Savannah region, the largest ever shot in Australia. You can stay at the pubs, at the Gulfland Motel, and in Normanton Caravan Park.
North of Normanton, right on the shore of the Gulf Savannah, is Karumba – a town mostly known for its excellent fishing. Its permanent population of 500 triples in the Dry Season (southern winter), when a lot of people come here to fish; and the town itself is kept alive by fishing and prawning industries. An interesting place to visit is the Barramundi Discovery Centre that continuously restocks the waters with barramundi fish. Karumba is also famous for its beautiful sunsets, best enjoyed from the Sunset Tavern in Karumba Point. Most tourists head here, while the locals and fishermen are more likely to be found in the famous Animal Bar. In Karumba, you can stay at Gulf Country Van Park and Ash's Holiday Units, and at the Karumba Point there are the Sunset Caravan Park, End of the Road Motel and Karumba Point Tourist and Caravan Park.
West of Normanton and Karumba is Burketown, in the middle of Gulf Savannah's flat saltplains. Burketown is actually not on the Gulf Savannah but in the mouth of Albert River about 30km away from the ocean waters. It was founded in 1865, but yellow fever wiped out the most of the towns's population only shortly after. Just above the high tide level, Burketown is often cut off the rest of Australia during the wet season and in 1887 the town was devastated by a tidal surge. Today it is the centre of the vast cattle country of the Gulf Savannah region and famous for its "Morning Glory" cloud formations that can be seen between September and November. In the town, there is a colourful artesian bore, an interesting cemetery, and a good old pub. You can stay at the Burketown Pub or Burketown Caravan Park.
South of Burketown is the remote but beautiful Lawn Hill National Park - one of the real gems of the Gulf Savannah region. It has got a beautiful gorge surrounded by red rock walls, and there are 25km of bushwalks to lookout points. You can rent a kayak to discover the gorge, which has been carved into ancient sandstone and surrounded by pandanus and cabbage palms. There is camping in the national park, but other than that, a popular place to stay is Adels Grove just outside the park.
Here's an Australian outback map showing the Gulf Savannah Region, where I have tagged the places that I mentioned on this web page. You can click on the tags to see what places they are, and double-click anywhere on the map to zoom it in and see the places closer. Drag the map to move around, and if you want to see the satellite image with Google Earth, click on "Sat" in the top right hand corner.
Did you go to Gulf Savannah?
Went to the Gulf in 2006, Karumba, Normanton, Burketown, Lawn Hill NP. Great places - and great fishing!!


Investment inquiries from China into Manchester property have increased by more than half as excitement about the Northern Powerhouse initiative continues to grow.
Juwai.com is a Chinese online property portal for buyers looking to invest in property overseas and it has stated that in November the amount of Chinese interest in Mancunian property has increased by 53.8%, compared to the same month in 2015.
At the same time, Manchester Airport Group has doubled its estimate of the value to the local economy of direct flights from Beijing to Manchester, the Telegraph reports.
The group states that, ten years from now, the economic impact of Chinese visitors to the region will be worth £500m, doubling the current value.
The Manchester-China Forum, a group promoting commercial ties between the two places, estimated that in 2016 a total of £2.1bn worth of development have had Chinese involvement.
One of the biggest projects of the year was by Beijing Construction Engineering Group's (BCEG's) involvement in the Middlewood Locks in Salford, worth £700m and providing 2,215 homes.
Part of the reason for this increase is Manchester's future growth, as it plans to add 227,000 homes and 200,000 jobs by 2035. It was also prompted after President Xi Jinping toured Manchester in October 2015.
Only months later, in December, a Chinese company decided to buy the pub that the President drank in.

I want to make it into one column that represents the date in a format 'MM/dd/yyyy'. How can I do that? I tried quite a while to no avail, but I believe someone may know it immediately.

A: Suppose you have a table with three columns with your values. As your table must contain the same type of data, you must first make sure that your values for the month, day and year are in the string format. If they aren't, convert them into strings (use B(:,1)=int2str(A(:,1)) for example)
Once your data in the string table, concatenate them in a 4th column.
for i=1:length(B(:,1))
B(i,4)=strcat(B(i,1), "/", B(i,2), "/", B(i,3));
end

Hello darling and welcome to my blog! My name is Tina, I live near Milwaukee,WI. My 'real' job is in the technology field. Any free time I get is spent writing, cooking yummy food, spending time with family and friends, window shopping, and walking around downtown with my 35 mm film camera.
This blog is always a work in progress. As creative can never be defined in one way. I love writing about fashion, beauty, music, and life in general. At times posts will seem random but that is a part of the adventure in life.
I love to get feedback on posts and on the blog in its entirety. There is never bad criticism it's all in the way you look at it.

a Victoria Soccer Supporters Group for fans of Pacific FC at Westhills Stadium and the Victoria Highlanders at Centennial Stadum
2013 PDL Finals Preview Part 1
This is a collaboration effort between the Lake Side Buoys and three other football writers/bloggers from around the PDL. This will be a four part series showcasing the participating clubs that qualified for the 2013 PDL Finals in Austin, TX August 2-4. All VHFC supporters knows that the USL PDL is not given much press. This collaboration will bring PDL Finals to the forefront and highlight a great year for all our clubs. Because this is a collaboration effort, all four club profiles/previews will be posted on each of the writer's sites for all to see. I hope you enjoy the reading and looking forward to the PDL Finals in Friday as I am.
First club preview is our very own 2013 Northwest Division and West Conference winners, Victoria Highlanders FC
Written by Michael Schlodder
President of the Lake Side Buoys Supporters Group
Secretary of the VHFC Supporters Board
Victoria Highlanders FC
Manager: Steve Simonson 2013 season: 1st NW Div. (8-4-2)
Best off season signing: Blair Sturrock (SCO) One to watch: Brett Levis (CAN)
The Victoria Highlanders FC, based out Victoria British Columbia Canada, was formed back in 2008 through the vision of Alex Campbell Jr. He wanted to bring competitive football to Victoria, both entertainment on the pitch but also to grow an academy style basis here for the local U11-18 and a have a competitive women's program. He realized that the youth are the future for this sport and he wanted to bring the best coaches/trainers to Victoria. Victoria, and Vancouver Island in general, is football frenzy geographically. Football is played throughout the calendar year from men and women to children. No matter where you go through the city, you will always find a kick about or even a 5-aside match going on somewhere. As of 2013, Victoria Highlanders FC have become the first soccer team in North America to be part supporter-owned (30%). We have an elected Supporters Board which is a democratic not-for-profit society of supporters, committed to strengthening the communities' support of the club. A strong working relationship with the club put forth in an effort to providing a true supporters' voice to ownership and senior management at the club. The club sees this as an opportunity for the Supporters' Board to assist the club in growing our membership base, and the best way to do that is to allow for opinions when decisions are being made.
Currently the club's First Team plays their home matches at Royal Athletic Park, a multi-sport complex, just on the outskirts of the downtown core. Royal Athletic Park was first built in 1908 and has hosted numerous sports throughout the years, most notably matches at the 2007 FIFA U20 World Cup.
(RAP during 2007 FIFA U20 World Cup Canada)
Going into the 2013 season, the Highlanders were undefeated in their last five matches. The current manager Steve Simonson took over as interim manager in mid-2012 and changed the side's style of play from long ball passing to a patient build up pass through the middle and wings. The club signed a variety of talent, both in experience and age, from throughout British Columbia, western Canada and overseas prior to the 2013 season. There is a large contingent of University Of Victoria men's soccer program on the First Team but that just continued to follow the ethos of the owner of local development. The club finished the 2013 regular season as Northwest Division winners (8-4-2, 28pts) in a division comprised of three clubs that are feeder systems for MLS clubs.
(Possible starting XI v Thunder Bay on Friday)
The Highlanders goalkeeper and back four are by far one of the strongest in the Northwest Division if not in the Western Conference. This was proven throughout the 2013 season. Leading from the back is keeper Elliot Mitrou. He is a presence in between the woodwork, commanding the back four with a good vision of the match. It's noticed that he can see weaknesses and gaps in the opposing side and exploit it using his commanding presence. He is agile and is quick to get from one post to the other, not afraid to take a knock or two in the process.
The center backs of captain Tyler Hughes and Ryan Ashlee are one of the tougher CB pairings in the NW Division. They are the Knights for our back four. They have a chemistry and work ethic that allows one another to know where the other player is without even talking. Both of Hughes and Ashlee started all 16 matches and have played every minute of the 2013 season showing their longevity. The left and right backs, Andrew Ravenhill and Kalem Scott respectively, are the stalwarts on the wings. Neither of our wing backs has a problem making runs from time to time with good results. Our back four are strong both in the air and on their feet. They are willing to go to ground if needed and can out muscle almost any striker or midfielder that comes into the 18 yard box.
Player(s) to Watch
There are numerous players to watch on the Highlanders' First Team. University of Saskatchewan standout and first year midfielder Brett Levis has been a complete revelation for the club this season. Levis leads the club in goals scored (12), assists (5), shots (51) and has started every match so far in 2013. Levis is strong on his feet. He shows both brilliance with his dribbling techniques and his pure natural speed on and off the ball. Plus Levis' shooting range and power can be compared to the top players in MLS and NASL, if not lower league football in England. The other player to watch is former U20 Canadian member Riley O'Neill. The midfielder has been the general for the Highlanders this season. He is strong in the air using his height as well as his strength to his advantage. As well, O'Neill uses the wings to his advantage when he is allowed to go for runs from time to time. But his strongest asset is his vision of the match unfolding in front of him. His passes are crisp, accurate and weighted precisely.
The so called X-factor for the Highlanders is the depth of experience and team unity we have. We have players who have played in Scotland, England and Scandinavia bringing a wealth of knowledge of the European game to our shores. We have players who are young and have the willingness to learn from the older players, soaking up the knowledge and experience like a sponge. Then reproduce it on the pitch on match days. But what is a sight to see is the team unity. How this little club has bonded and come together in such a short time frame to not just win on the pitch (first ever NW Division and Western Conference titles in club's history) but win off the pitch as well. The growth in support from the local community has grown immensely over the last few years. The Lake Side Buoys (the unofficial and only supporters' group of the Highlanders) bring the European flair and environment to each and every home match, plus some away matches. Unfortunately, no Lake Side Buoys will be making the trip to Austin to support our lads. Just this season alone, we broke the highest attendance for a home match twice. The most recent mark of 2,347 at the home finale v Portland Timbers U23. Football has never been more popular in Victoria and on Vancouver Island.

It's just a one-day series, but as it happens England's home win and India's World Cup win have made this quite an appealing prospect. Plus it's only five matches, not seven matches like it will be next winter.
What's that, you say? Seven one-day matches next winter? You don't mean between England and India, surely?
Yes, we do. After playing four Tests against India in November and December (probably in the space of four weeks), the two teams will then play a Twenty20 and seven one-dayers in January 2013.
Bunsen burner. Nice little earner.
I hate getting news from this website.
As the architect said – More is More. How could it be otherwise? If someone likes something and you give them twice as much, you will DOUBLE THEIR ENJOYMENT. That's simple mathematics, that is. And it doesn't stop there. Double it again and it still works. And again. And again. It is an unavoidable FACT that even when you are preventing them from sleeping so as to fit in all the ODI cricket, they will STILL BE ENJOYING THEMSELVES.
True, they might not look like they are enjoying themselves, and they may be threatening to kill you, but that will just be a ruse. Of course they will be enjoying themselves.
– The response from the ECB.
I find it staggering both sides are playing a near full-strength squad.
That is EXACTLY what we were trying to describe.


Relieve your pain. Restore your ability. Regain your life.
You can't really enjoy life when you suffer with constant pain. That's why Pain Therapy Associates established a center where you can find real pain relief; a center where you'll never be told that your pain is all in your head.
Pain Therapy Associates is a multidisciplinary team of board-certified pain specialists – in rheumatology, pain management, anesthesiology, internal medicine, neurology, physiatry, physical therapy, massage therapy, chiropractic medicine, acupuncture and Eastern medicine – all under one roof. All dedicated to pinpointing the real source of your suffering, relieving your pain and restoring your life.
Here, you'll find doctors and allied health professionals who are trained and experienced in both traditional and alternative pain relief therapies, Eastern and Western medicine. Their goal is to help you overcome or eliminate your pain and give you back your life even if you have tried other pain treatments without success or if you have suffered years of frustration with the inability of standard medical care to help you.
At Pain Therapy Associates, you'll find caring, compassionate physicians led by Wajde Dabah, MD, and chronic pain pioneer Carey B. Dachman, MD, FACR. Dr. Dachman is triple-board-certified (rheumatology, internal medicine and pain management) and has been recognized as a Castle-Connolly Regional Top Doctor in rheumatology for five consecutive years. He has also been honored as one of Chicago Magazine's Top Doctors and Best of the Best for Chicago Magazine.
Together, Dr. Dabah and his colleagues have already helped well over 30,000 chronic pain sufferers since 1982. Together, they can help you, too. Using a wide variety of traditional and alternative therapies, Pain Therapy Associates can help people with over 150 different pain conditions.
We serve the communities of Schaumburg, Chicago, Arlington Heights, Elgin, Elk Grove, Palatine, Hoffman Estates, Wheaton and nearby areas. To schedule a referral or appointment, please call our pain management specialists at 847-352-5511 or use our online appointment request form today!
Neck pain can be caused by any number of things – arthritis, ankylosing and cervical spondylitis (arthritis of the spine), degenerative disc disease and other disc problems, whiplash injuries (often caused by auto accidents) and other types of trauma.
Shoulder pain may be caused by several conditions including arthritis, overuse, muscle tears and hyperextension. Rotator cuff tears are common among athletes and non-athletes. Frozen shoulder is another common condition that causes pain.
Common pain-causing conditions that affect the elbow include arthritis, tennis elbow, golfer's elbow and another repetitive hand, wrist or arm movements. The elbow is typically less prone to wear-and-tear damage than other joints.
There are many causes of back pain. No matter what the cause is, your back muscles will form trigger points (hard, painful knots). This can cause persistent back pain even after the original cause of the pain has been resolved.
The ankle is subject to pain from arthritis, Achilles tendonitis or rupture, sprains, strains, fractures, gout (sudden, severe attacks of pain, redness and tenderness in joints, especially the joint at the base of the big toe).
Most often caused by different types of arthritis, pinched nerves, bursitis, tendonitis, muscle tears or trauma, hip pain can also be caused by bone cancer, leukemia, osteoporosis or sciatica.
Knee pain is often caused by injuries to ligaments that support the knees, including, ACL, MCL and PCL, cartilage or meniscus tears. Arthritis also affects the knees and causes stiffness and swelling.
Pain can be caused by various forms of arthritis, bruises, stress fractures, peripheral neuropathy (common among people with diabetes), gout and broken bones in the feet.

Why don't I feel like I'm saved? Am I really saved? Can I lose my salvation?
A Christian might think, "I know that I'm saved today, but how do I know that I'll still be saved tomorrow? Is it possible for me to lose my salvation?" What does the Bible say about the security of our salvation?
The Bible's answer can be summed up in the phrase, "Once saved, always saved." Once you are saved, you are always saved. Watch here to know why.


Discussion in 'Apple TV and Home Theater' started by ryanpfw, Dec 12, 2013.
Looking for suggestions. I have a lot of media on external drives connected to a Mac mini and ever had a playback issue. I recently upgraded from a 2009 Mac Mini core duo with 4gb ram to a 2013 model with 16 gb ram and set up three Apple TV 3s throughout the house. Especially when video is 1080p I am experiencing very sluggish video. Audio is fine but video slows, crawls, speeds up, repeats.
Last night I grabbed an Ethernet cable and connected it to the Apple TV and Mini, stopped playback and resumed and it still was choppy. I checked one of the other TVs and it was choppy there as well.
For a router I use a 2009 extreme basestation, although I am not sure that is a factor as the Ethernet cable did not seem to affect things.
how are you playing the videos?
from the aTV, accessing your itunes library, using home sharing?
on the mini, have you set the order of your networks, so wired is preferred?
you want wired to be higher up the list in network preferences.
if it's not, click the cog at the bottom of the list, and "set service order"
downloaded from the itunes store?
ripped from blu-rays and left in the native format?
depending on how you answer that, a 1080 file can be anywhere from 4 to 40 GB.
so at least a file extension (.mpg,.mp4 etc) and how big the file is can help.
In all cases it has buffered with room to spare past the point of viewing. I did plug the AppleTV directly into the Mini using Ethernet last night but did not touch the priority order. The AppleTV could no longer see the iTunes Store but did stream the file, albeit jerkily.
You mentioned you don't think the router is a problem, however have you tried giving the router a reboot?
Anytime I had airplay issues a reboot of my router solved the problem.
I can certainly try that. I had done the direct connection with Ethernet and had not noticed a change and had assumed that meant it was not a wireless issue.
While my files are stored on an external drive, I was unsure if pulling them by USB and streaming to the Apple TV could have been a factor, but never has been before.
USB2 should be more than able to handle those files.
Have you tried playing the files on your mac? both the original and handbrake converted versions.
I don't use eyeTV, but use similar (mythTV on linux) occasionally, the television signal drops off and the recording freaks out a bit. make sure the coax connection to your tuner is tight. it's possible that it backed off a bit and you've lost some signal strength.
So far so good news to report!
I did a router resets and it did not seem to do the trick, so I updated the software on the Apple TV and did two restarts and it played a movie flawlessly. I still haven't tried two of the others and haven't used the first one again today but am cautiously optimistic. I will let you know what happens!
I just wanted to add another data point to this, I just experienced the exact symptoms you mentioned here last night while watching the new Muse: Live at Olympic Stadium video I purchased on iTunes. It is the HD version.
I had seen some stuttering at some point last year with my aTV, but a quick router power cycle fixed it. Last night this didn't help. I noticed that I didn't have the latest aTV firmware, so I updated last night and went to bed. This morning I watched several minutes of the Muse video, and another twenty or so minutes of Pacific Rim HD, and didn't see a repeat of the issue. Hopefully this means the firmware update addressed the issue.
For all of this I am selecting airplay from iTunes on my wired Macbook Pro running latest Mavericks. My aTV is using wifi.

In the World of Aragon there are many non-player character cities. These are major cities in the World of Aragon that provide much of the commerce, and action, that you will encounter as you adventure. Some of them are friendly, and some are not so friendly, depending on the race you've chosen to play.
Richard Human Male Ranger Aladda sits in the strategic Aladda Gap on the northern shore of the Rastilin River. Populated primarily by humans, Aladda is centered in the middle of Aragon. She leads the alliance that bears her name. The Aladda Alliance encourages economic strength and diplomatic shrewdness to defend its members.
Badok Human Male Warrior Brocada is located on the lower reaches of the Rastilin River in south western Aragon. Known as the Gate-Way to Pudawala, the city of Brocada is inhabited mainly by humans and is a founding member of the Pillars of Men, an order that seeks defensive agreements with like-mined humans, elves and dwarves.
Charghak Ogre Male Warrior Enclosed within the brutal lands of the Char Hills in far south west Aragon stands a city known simply as Char. The lure of mineral wealth has made this the land of ogres, a race that thrives in difficult environments. Adherents to the Order of the River Hold, Char ogres favor trade as the best path to wealth.
Droon Giant Male Priest Dersh is the southern most city in Aragon and sits on the edge of the Barriers of Dersh. Most giants that inhabit the city and surrounding mountains follow the ways of the Blood Crescent Pack which makes them completely non-threatening to their neighbors eleven months of the year.
Dereck Human Male Ranger To the far south west corner of Aragon, on the edge of the ocean lays Dunsfeldt, a land of bountiful with natural wealth gleaned from both land and sea. Surrounded by covetous green races, the humans of Dunsfeldt subscribe to the philosophical tenants of the Pillars of Men.
Elminstra Human Female Priest Estallah sits at the exact center of the fertile Estallah Plain in north central Aragon. Climate and soils are perfect for agricultural bounty. As leader of the Estallah Confederation, the city seeks harmony with her neighbors of either green or tan races.
Franklish Human Female Knight Forthumberland is a young and rapidly growing city in southern Aragon. The city's remoteness from its more violent neighbors to the north, attests to its adherence to the Frankish Order, non-aggressive, but economically strong and diplomatically adroit.
Flaherty Human Male Mage Freehold occupies the isolated north western edge of the Continent of Aragon. Its human inhabitants are followers of the Children of Avion and thus, isolationist from the outside world. The land is sufficient though not overly rich in resources.
Laurghard Dwarf Male Warrior Though resource poor, Gambrivax is location-rich. The goblin city occupies the junction of the Rastilin River and the Justinid Pass. Following the ways of the Gore Stripe Tribe, the inhabitants seek their fortunes in commerce, not conquest.
Guntillizi Ogre Male Knight The ogres of Gernok practice one of the most fearsome blood rage cults that thrive among the green races. This northwestern land is not particularly endowed with great resource wealth, but constant war has enriched many ogres in the land.
Gardus Dwarf Male Warrior Gloimli lays at the southern edge of the Gloimli Hills in north central Aragon. Agriculturally poor, The Hills are rich in many types of ore and gems of unusual quality. Dwarves are in the majority and many of those follow the Black Tower while others seek martial glory in the Clan of the White Hammer.
Hornblogh Titan Male Warrior The population of Harkworth consists entirely of titans. Harkworth rests on a peninsula covered with wooded hills in the northeast corner of Aragon. Like all titans who bear the heraldry of the Lambda Council, they are isolationist and defensive.
Seybke Dwarf Male Priest The Dwarven city of Hildesheimenste occupies the desolate western edge of the Paritan Peaks. Though not isolationist, Standards of the Clan of Black Tower can be seen aloft all important settlements indicating a defensive pose on the part of the inhabitants.
Hildebadt Goblin Male Warrior Overlooking the vast Plains of Pudawala to the southwest, the goblins of Inmark occupy a strategic hold in central Aragon. Mineral and forest wealth are abundant within the Inmark Hills. Being members of the Blood Shield Tribe, the goblins of Inmark have few friends, green or tan.
Justian Dwarf Female Priest Far to the north in the mysterious Jagged Peaks sits the defiant dwarven city of Jaggedorn. The threat from the skies is offset by the fabulous mineral wealth deep within the earth. Many believe that worship in the Ruby Clan will provide protection. Others have taken to worshiping other cult.
Xutjia Orc Female Priest East of the Ullthorn Forest, astride the Rastilin River sits the orc city of Keb Roz. Rich soil and dependable precipitation provide enormous potential for a wide variety of food stuffs. As followers of the agriculturally oriented Disciples of Terra, Keb Roz orcs are a bit of an oddity among green races.
Kendrick Human Male Knight Kembolt sits several leagues from the Bay of Aquar. A stretch of land between the Bay and the Zarnix Mountains known as Kembolt Downs provides Kembolt with abundant food supplies. Though they are strong supporters of the Pillars of Man, relations with other human city-states are strained.
Lavinia Human Female Priest The south eastern corner of Aragon is occupied by the mostly human city of Lucedia. Abundant forests and copious food from the land and sea allow Lucedia to be largely self-sufficient. Though devoted to the crusading Avion Worshipers, Lucedia is isolated and peaceful.
Margdud Orc Female Warrior Within the continent's largest swamp, in northern-most Aragon sits the orcish city of Marinia which has recently been wrenched from human control. Marinia is resource poor, yet mysteriously, wealthy. The House of the Red Eye dominates economic, political and spiritual institutions.
Meretheri Elf Female Knight In far eastern Aragon sits the elven city of Medeval. Nestled in hills within the Medeval Woods, it is home to a secretive eleven society. As members of the militant Order of Forest Protectors, contact with Medeval elves by non-elves is very rare.
Normania Human Male Warrior Nuralia is a predominately human settlement in northeastern Aragon. Forests and rich soil provide the basis for Nuralia's economy. The question of alliances with other humans is paramount in Nuralia.
Obghatta Orc Female Priest Deep within the dense Oakwrath Forest lays the orcish city of the same name. The forest provides for most economic activity. The geography of the land fits in well with the precepts of the House of the Crossed Bones.
Pitlag Orc Male Knight Paritan sits within a broad valley surrounded almost entirely by protective mountains. A diversified economy provides the orcs of Paritan with most needs. Membership in the feared House of the Fist, give an indication to the aggressive nature of the city's leadership.
Fuokhui Targhun Centaur Male Ranger Centered in the Plains of Pudawala is the centaur settlement known as Pudawala. The vast plains and far off hill provide for the centaurs needs. No single philosophy dominates Pud society. All orders of centaur heraldry can be found on the plains. They are very suspicious of outsiders.
Qu'borax Orc Male Warrior Qutok is an orcish city in central Aragon. Deep within forested land encircled by the Qutok Hills, the orcs have created a wealthy yet turbulent society. Banners of many orc clans and orders fly above the city.
Roda'zix Orc Female Warrior The distant and barren steep of northern Aragon is home to a land known as The Reaches. The land provides suitable economic means for its orcish residents. As adherents to the House of the Red Eye, dwarven neighbors to the south should be forewarned.
Senetherien Elf Male Knight The Sothhold Woods in south eastern Aragon is the site of the elven city of Sothhold. Its isolation fits neatly within its philosophical adherence to the non-aggressive Order of the Sun. The elves of Sothhold are entirely self-sufficient and retiring from all outsiders.
Tzornix Troll Male Warrior The troll city of Sur Nova can be found in north eastern Aragon atop the Sur Nova Mountains. Abundant mineral wealth is found everywhere within the mountains. Chaotic in nature, no one order dominates Sur Nova. However, the Slaver Kin has a strong following.
Threlessia Elf Female Mage In western Aragon deep within the Tentula Forest is the elf city of Tentula. Mostly self-sufficient economically, Tentula is free to pursue its goals as outlined by the tenants of the Order of the Raptor. Few non-elven cities would call Tentula friendly.
Thonorien Elf Male Ranger Sandwiched between the Tranavan Forest that bears its name, and the expansive Lake of Ella, sits the eleven city of Tranavan. Highly timid, the elves have developed a deeply spiritual connection to the land through the Order of the Spirit. Material wealth holds little value here.
Ullidak Goblin Male Knight In the center of the Ullthorn Forest rest the enormous goblin city of Ullthorn. Sitting atop a wealth of natural resource has made Ullthorn wealthy.

The Velodrome was built on the site of the former Werner-Seelenbinder-Halle. It was planned by the internationally known French architect Dominique Perrault during the Berlin candidacy for the 2000 Olympic Games.
Berlin is known as the international Mekka of track cycling, especially because of the Winterbahn - today's 6-day race.
After the Velodrome was opened in 1997, the brand new Velodrome hosted several high-profile competitions such as the Track European Championship in the same year, the 1998 Track World Cup and the 1999 UCI Track World Championships. Since 1997 the Velodrome is also the new home of the traditional Berlin 6-day race.
In preparation for the 2017 European Track Championships, this very fast track has been rebuilt due to UCI's new safety rules. Also, the driving surface was completely laid with new Siberian wood.

Tekashi 6ix9ine Wanted to Donated Money to Feed Hungry Kids But His Offer was Turned Down!
All kinds of help are typically welcomed during times of crisis like the one the world is facing now. That said, many celebrities and public personalities have used their wealth and influence to help those affected by the coronavirus pandemic.
Controversial rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine is one of those who wanted to donate to the many nonprofit organizations working to aid children and their families survive the ongoing crisis.
Unfortunately, his donation wasn't welcomed like he thought it would be.
Donation Declined
No Kid Hungry/Instagram: The organization is currently working to feed millions of children who lost access to healthy meals when schools closed
The 24-year-old musician, whose real name is Daniel Hernandez, was reportedly turned down by No Kid Hungry. The charitable organization refused to receive the rapper's $200,000 donation hours after Hernandez made his intention to give known.
The 'GOOBA' singer went on his Instagram to say that he wants to help hungry families during the pandemic and even encouraged his own fans to not forget about the people who depend on public schools for their meals.
While No Kid Hungry shares the same goal with Hernandez, a representative from the organization said that they had to turn away the rapper as his actions do not fit their mission and values.
Sordid Background
Sara Molina/Instagram: Molina's ex-girlfriend The rapper's ex-girlfriend Sara Molina has also accused him of child abuse
As can be expected, Hernandez was disappointed by the organization's decision. He even wrote a now-deleted post calling out the group for choosing to take food out of the mouth of children.
On the other hand, No Kid Hungry's decision was justified by the controversial rapper's unsavory past. Hernandez has just been released from prison as his asthma made him at risk for COVID-19 while incarcerated.
He's currently serving a two-year sentence due to his involvement in several gang activities. Hernandez was supposed to get out of prison in August as his sentence was shortened due to good behavior.
Tekashi 6ix9ine/Instagram: The rapper is already back to making music while he is in home confinement
Worse, Hernandez doesn't seem to be too remorseful for his actions as was evident by his sentiments in a recent Instagram livestream. He said that he had no regrets about his betrayal of the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods gang.
For now, he's focused on carrying on his music career after signing a $10 million record deal while he was still in prison. It is believed that his intended donation for No Kid Hungry was part of the money he made on his latest single.

How do you impress your date? Perhaps you bring a bouquet of flowers or maybe even a box of chocolates. But I bet you've never made a sandcastle to swoon her? Believe it or not, that's what male Cichlid fish do to attract a mate and intimidate fellow rivals.
These sandcastles that Cichlid fish create are called bowers. The bowers vary slightly in shape and size based on the species of Cichlid. There is also research suggesting that the shape of the bowers has a direct relation to how many fights the male fish gets in with his neighboring pals.
The male Cichlid fish creates these sandcastle mounds by sucking up sand with their mouths and spiting it out into piles. It's almost as if they're creating art to catch the eye of a female Cichlid swimming by.
Cichlid fish vary greatly in size, shape, and appearance, depending on what species it is, ranging from as small as an inch to just over three feet in length. There are over 1,500 known species of Cichlid fish across the globe, with many more going undiscovered or unnamed. The most recognizable species of Cichlid fish has to be tilapia.
The fish are found mostly in freshwater ecosystems across the globe. From South America to Africa, and Europe to North America, there are specific species associated with different locations. They are also very popular fish for freshwater aquariums.
So next time you're out to swoon a date, why not take the Cichlid's advice and build a sandcastle!

The way we work has forever changed, business is now an anytime, anywhere digital workplace.
The new generation of digital users needs the freedom to explore, integrate and pull information in short order – when and where they need it and from any device. Companies that can't deliver these types of omni-channel experiences face being obsolete. As a result, businesses are challenged with how to reinvent their existing systems of record for the digital future that are needed to drive innovation, modernize and streamline business processes and capitalize on untapped revenue streams.
Mobile is the new scale and business mobile apps are fueling growth for the enterprise. Gartner predicts that by 2022, 70% of software interactions in enterprises will occur on mobile devices. However, most organizations have deployed less than 7 apps due to complex systems, a lack of skilled resources and high development costs. As a result, this slow time to value has driven business leaders to take their budget elsewhere to get the job done, creating more risk and friction for IT.
That's why PowWow Mobile is redefining the mobile enterprise. Our SmartUX Platform simplifies and extends business apps to mobile, delivering new and intelligent "enterprise to edge" experiences that empower employees with actionable insights wherever they are and whenever they need it. Unlike traditional development that relies on specialized, scarce resources, or lightweight, insufficient tools that are unable to scale, our product enables the business to decrease time to market for the apps users crave while giving IT the command and control they need to ensure enterprise-grade security and compliance. And all of this for a fraction of the cost and time.
The consumerization of mobility is fueling the need for enterprises to support next-generation apps that are secure from the start, context aware, simple and intuitive, and provide a seamless experience for end-users across all devices. With PowWow SmartUX, there are no limits to the apps you can create. Seamlessly connect to anything and everything, build an app once and provide device-optimized experiences from office to edge device – smartphones, desktop, tablets, wearables and more – with the click of a button. Leverage pre-built templates for the ultimate in speed and reusability, ensuring rapid time to market. Deliver right-time experiences with context aware notifications, enabling users to never miss a beat.
Seamlessly connect to any application, workflow or data source, with or without APIs. PowWow SmartUX is the only rapid mobile app platform that can transform all your systems of record into powerful modern app experiences.
With BYOD you never know what device the users are using, which forces organizations to find ways to simplify and streamline omni-channel app design, development, deployment, and management. Hand-coding apps for multiple devices is no longer an option, it's too expensive, slow, and complex to manage. PowWow SmartUX allows you to easily design and build for any iOS, Android, Windows 10 or HTML5 compatible device without the need to use device specific programming languages.
Create connected, proactive and context-aware experiences across all platforms. With SmartUX Studio, easily drag-and-drop smart device features like camera, GPS, Fingerprint sensor and more. Extend to the edge with voice based assistants and location-based notifications for right-time interactions.
Mobile users are looking to perform specific tasks within specific contexts and apps must be thought of in terms of 'right-time moments'. Right-time moments enable the right user with the right data at the right time on the right device. Mobile users do not want to navigate through multiple screens to do what they need so understanding how to deliver the right app experience is key. SmartUX has just what you need to deliver rich, right-time mobile moments to a diverse workforce.
Templates deliver the ultimate experience in speed and productivity. With pre-built universal app and screen templates, users now have access to everything they need to quickly create amazing mobile apps with simple, codeless drag-and-drop capabilities, as well as the ability to add unique touches with custom code, when needed. Templates both decrease time to market and ensure design consistency across mobile apps in an organization, resulting in increased adoption and compliance.
Run Anywhere. Run on any public, private or hybrid cloud, or on-premises.
Your Device, Your Choice. Deploy your apps purpose-build for PC, laptop, tablet, phone, or watch. Design Once, For All Devices. With SmartUX Studio, design once and run on any OS – Windows 10, iOS, Android, HTML5.
Despite the mobile-first world we live in, the majority of work still takes place using important legacy desktop and web-based applications. These business-critical systems are not going away anytime soon and as a result, organizations need to equip their employees with simplified and modernized access to the workflows and data they need most. However, the effort to integrate custom workflows, data and logic can be daunting and traditional mobile app development tools are unable to meet the rapid demands and pace of modern business. It's time to re-think your path to enterprise application modernization and transform your systems of record into systems of engagement.
With PowWow's SmartUX, create more sophisticated, intuitive and simplified user interactions that leverage and extend existing investments in applications, data, logic, rules and integrations without having to start from scratch or alter source code. Whether you need to provide a new modern interface to existing systems or you need to simplify and extend application workflows to mobile – SmartUX is the only solution that can transform any application into a modern, intelligent system of engagement with no disruptions to your business.
All logic in your enterprise's application UI migrates to the mobile app, saving valuable time and effort when deploying the new app.
Rebuilding integrations and logic is over 80% of the cost of building mobile apps. PowWow SmartUX preserves the existing logic, back-end data integrations, and all of your data sources. SmartUX uses a transformed version of the UI component so that it's integration to back-end systems is still intact. You don't need to rebuild existing integrations.
Rather than building a parallel infrastructure, use your existing one. SmartUX preserves logic and integrations so that updates to the original desktop application migrate forward into the new app. Upgrades to lists and dynamically created fields are automatically reflected in your mobile apps.
The traditional app development processes that long required IT departments to have an army of developers with extensive coding skills and backgrounds is quickly being replaced with codeless and low-code solutions that dramatically increase time to market over traditional approaches. With increasing pressure from the business to create and deploy new mobile apps, IT is embracing citizen development initiatives to handle the surge in demand, deliver apps faster, mitigate shadow IT and close the app gap by democratizing app development at scale.
PowWow's rapid mobile app platform, SmartUX, empowers citizen developers with a self-service, drag and drop, composite environment that allows users to easily create modern omni-channel experiences that connect to any enterprise or cloud data source, with or without APIs and securely deliver hybrid apps to virtually any device.

Access powerful native device capabilities by simply dragging and dropping features like bar code scanning, voice assistance, camera, maps, and geo-fencing.
After you deploy your mobile apps, you can add features or make immediate changes without having to repeat the app store approval process. New changes flow seamlessly through to the mobile app.
to all your users with role based apps for specific personas such as managers, power users, and infrequent users, delivering personalized apps that solve specific problems.

Camilla The Bride: Both being photographers we met at work and clicked (excuse the pun!) straight away.
We got engaged in Justin's homeland of Wales, he took me for a beautiful walk in the Brecon Beacons, we stopped off for a dip in a river then sat on an old bridge for a picnic when he popped the question. I was absolutely bowled over and was even more stunned by the incredible opal engagement ring he presented me with.
Being a wedding photographer myself (Camilla Arnhold Photography) and one half of Millie & Belle Photography choosing our wedding photographer was a no brainer. My business partner Helen Cawte and the wonderful Hayley Savage are going to be photographing our wedding and we know they will do the most amazing job.
We are planning a very personal, festival style wedding with lots of live music, beautiful details and an unconventional wedding dress. We just want all of our friends and family to have the most fun ever and share the most important day of our lives.
We all contributed to the engagement shoot, everything apart from the flowers were made by us or brought from our own homes.
The amazing Owen from Little Lillies Florists contributed the beautiful sculptural bouquets, table decorations and the leafy head piece.
That cake does look beyond delicious!
I'm looking forward to seeing their wedding too – hopefully we'll be sharing it here on RMW.
I am looking absolutley foward to your wedding, i hope it Is featured here! Your engagement shoot is too beautiful!!
That cake! The golden pumpkin! It's a veritable fairy tale and Camilla's locks could belong to a real-life princess! Completely luscious!

Q: If $a$ is irreducible and $a\nmid fg$, then $a\mid f$ or $a\mid g$? I'm trying to understand the proof of the following:
Theorem. Let $D$ be a unique factorization domain and let $a\in D$ be an irreducible element. If $f, g\in D[x]$ are such that $a\mid fg$, then $a\mid f$ or $a\mid g$.
The idea is to show that
$$a\nmid f\quad \textrm{and}\quad a\nmid g\implies a\nmid fg.$$
Let us write
\begin{align*}
f(x)=f_0+f_1 x+\ldots+f_n x^n\quad \textrm{and}\quad g(x)=g_0+g_1 x+\ldots+g_m x^m.
\end{align*}
If $a\nmid f$ and $a\nmid g$ then we can find $i\in \{1, \ldots, n\}$ and $j\in \{1, \ldots, m\}$ such that $$a\nmid f_i\quad \textrm{and}\quad b\nmid g_j.$$
We can then define
$$p:=\min\{i\in \{1, \ldots, n\}: a\nmid f_i\ \textrm{and}\ a\mid f_j\ \forall j<i\}$$
and
$$q:=\min\{i\in \{1, \ldots, m\}: a\nmid g_i\ \textrm{e}\ a\mid g_j\ \forall j<i\}.$$
By definition
$$a\nmid f_p\quad \textrm{and}\quad a\nmid g_q.$$
Consequently, since $a$ is irreducible,
$$a\nmid f_p g_q.$$
I have already shown that if $a$ is irreducible and $a|bc$, then $a|b$ or $a|c$.
Now, define
$$h_{p+q}=f_0 g_{p+1}+\ldots+f_p g_q+\ldots+f_{p+q} g_0$$
where $f_i=g_j=0$ if $i>n$ and $j>m$.
I'd like to conclude that $$a\nmid h_{p+q}$$ using the fact that $a\nmid f_p g_q$, for this will imply $a$ does not divide the coefficient of $x^{p+q}$ of the product $fg$, and hence does not divide $fg$ (for I have already show that if $a\mid f$ for some $f\in D[x]$, then $a$ divides every coefficient of $f$).
So, my question is, why
$$a\nmid f_p g_q\implies a\nmid h_{p+q}?$$
It does not seem straightforward because there could be a term in the sum which defines $h_{p+q}$ that could cancel $f_p g_q$. Why can't this happen?
Thanks.

A: Your expression for $h_{p+q}$ seems off to me.
Writing the coefficient of $x^{p+q}$ in $fg$, $$h_{p+q}=f_0g_{p+q}+f_1g_{p+q-1}+\cdots+ f_{p-1}g_{q+1}+f_pg_q+f_{p+1}g_{q-1}+\cdots+f_{p+q}g_0.$$
Now by the assumption on divisibility of $a$ and $p, q$, we have that $a$ divides all the terms in RHS except $f_pg_q$.
Thus, $a|h_{p+q}$ iff $a| f_pg_q$.

Q: Subcategory Descriptions not always showing for every subcategory I've got one of these situations which now is taking me already 2 days but I cannot get my head wrapped around it.
I just cannot find out why on two different subcategory pages, on one the description is shown, and on the other one, no matter what I do, it will not whow.
Here it works: https://www.persempretoys.nl/seo/kidkraft-poppenhuis all the way down on the page is the standard description for this category.
But here it doesn't: https://www.persempretoys.nl/seo/kidkraft-keuken
And these categories are built up in the exact same way.
So in the app/design/frontend/{package}/{theme}/template/catalog/category/view.phtml there is this section which invokes the description:

<?php if($_description=$this->getCurrentCategory()->getDescription()): ?>
        <div class="category-description std">
            <?php echo $_helper->categoryAttribute($_category, $_description, 'description') ?>
        </div>
    <?php endif; ?>

It is a Magento 1.7.0.2 shop, but I cannot get this one solved quickly.
Any ideas from you ? Or anymore people who have encountered this ?
Edit: Background info added

A: Admin - System - Index Management - Category Flat Data - Reindex data. That should do it.
