Last Sunday Don and I were relaxing in the living room. I was typing away on my computer, as usual, and Don was watching something on National Geographic. I wasn't watching. It was just noise in the background. When suddenly Bentley, our little Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, started barking and growling at the TV. What the heck? "Don, what is he barking at?" I say. "The TV. He's barking at the dogs on TV." Ha! He was actually watching TV.
He was mesmerized by the action. His head and eyes were following the dog from left to right, and when they barked, he barked. Too funny. Now Don has someone to watch animal shows with.
Look at this sweet little face.
Now picture him growling and barking at these cute dogs and kids!!
They were watching a show called And Man Created Dog on National Geographic. Don loves these shows. Actually Don likes any and all shows with animals - dogs, sharks, whales - he's kind of obsessed. So Bentley has plenty of opportunity to watch fellow doggies on TV. The three men in my herd (Don, Sam and Bentley) will sit there watching these shows for hours. Don snacks. Bentley growls and barks, and Sam naps. Pretty much what guys do when they get together.
Shows over. Back to napping with Sam, his BFF.
So?Guys like animals. Guys also like to eat. Guys like girls. So, a guy with his best girl sitting on the couch, snacking on large size shrimp and watching "Lassie" movies! Heaven on earth!
Too funny. You forgot to mention Sir Aston sitting in your lap!


Keeping stops tight means very well considered entry positions if we are to have a chance at profitability.
09:00 My watchfulness of the market has, I think, increased. I take very early exits as required. Here's the trade from this morning. I entered on bar 1, a type of pattern break pullback (pbp); seemed reasonable at the time. My concern was the significant number above the entry position. However, if bar 1 had closed even slightly above the close of the previous bar, I would have exited. If bar 1 had pushed up – before closing to one pip above the high of the last two bars – I would have exited. When bar 2 closed, as a combi long, I exited which coincidently was breakeven.
When the reason for entry changes, I get out.
An odd-looking entry. My reason was in the price action of the three bars before entry. Also, I'm looking for opportunities where the stop (and therefore the risk) is small. Not a perfect 'Bob' entry, but this time it worked.
Of interest, I moved the stop to its position at two pips above entry only after the bar below the 7,160 level closed. I took the scalp due to the ranginess of the day which was also the turning point and the ceiling test of the bar to the left at 08:20.

CCA 2013
The Schedule (CCA 2013)
Conciliation is an alternative dispute resolution process whereby the parties to a dispute refer a dispute to a conciliator. The conciliator generally meets with the parties both separately and together in an attempt to resolve their differences.
The Standard Irish Forms of Building Contract provides for conciliation as a dispute resolution process (as per the example above). Whilst arguably it is likely that with the commencement of the adjudication procedure, under the Construction Contracts Act 2013, will reduce the use of conciliation, it still provides a useful procedure to settle parties differences. Each party is responsible for their own costs and are jointly and severally liable for the cost of the conciliator.
Having acted in several conciliation hearings we can help you through the preparation and present your claim (or defend as the case may be) during the conciliation hearing.
In addition, Mark Etherington is on the Society of Chartered Surveyors Ireland ("SCSI") conciliation panel and is available to act as conciliator.
13.1.1 If a dispute arises under the Contract, either party may, by notice to the other, refer the dispute for conciliation under this sub-clause 13.1. The notice shall state that it is given under sub-clause 13.1 of the Contract.
Public Works Contract Clause 13.1
Conciliation Services
If both parties are willing to engage, conciliation offers the ability of introducing an independent third party to facilitate discussion, or alternative make a recommendation on the merits of the case.
Early assessment
ACUA can review your issues, and provide an early assessment on your contractual entitlements.
ACUA can substantiate your entitlement, draft opening statement and assist you throughout the conciliation process.
Appointments as Conciliator
Mark Etherington can act as conciliator. This can be from agreement by both parties, or, application to the Society of Chartered Surveyors Ireland, requesting such appointment.

Dr. José F. Cordero to receive APHA Sedgwick Memorial Medal for Distinguished Service
University of Georgia professor José F. Cordero has been awarded the 2017 Sedgwick Memorial Medal for Distinguished Service in Public Health, the oldest and most prestigious award bestowed by the American Public Health Association.
An international leader in infant and maternal health, Cordero will be honored for his "remarkable record of service in the advancement of public health knowledge and practice" at the association's annual meeting in Atlanta on November 7.
Cordero is the Gordhan and Jinx Patel Distinguished Professor of Public Health and head of the department of epidemiology and biostatistics in UGA's College of Public Health, where he mentors graduate researchers in infectious disease studies and infant and maternal health.
"Dr. Cordero has positively impacted millions over the course of his career not only through his scholarship and practice, but also by teaching and mentoring the next generation of global health practitioners," said UGA President Jere W. Morehead. "I commend him on his achievements and on his receipt of this singular distinction."
Originally trained as a pediatrician, Cordero has dedicated his career to addressing maternal and child health as well as minority health and health disparities. His many contributions to public health include identifying nutritional deficiencies of infant formula, advocating for nutrient fortification in corn and flour to prevent neural tube defects in Hispanic children, promoting child immunizations in the U.S. to eliminate measles, mumps and rubella, and championing early diagnosis for children with autism.
For 27 years, Cordero served at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, where he focused on improving the health of mothers and children. His most prominent roles were deputy director of the National Immunization Program and founding director of the National Center for Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities. In the U.S. Public Health Service, he attained the rank of assistant surgeon general.
"The College of Public Health was very fortunate to recruit Dr. Cordero," said Phillip L. Williams, dean of the college. "He is an inspiration to our faculty and students in public health, and it is an honor to know him as a colleague."
Cordero currently co-directs the Puerto Rico Test site for Exploring Contamination Threats (PROTECT) Center as well as the Center for Research on Early Childhood Exposure and Development (CRECE), both of which examine how exposure to environmental contaminants contributes to the high rate of preterm birth in Puerto Rico.
At the advent of the Zika epidemic in 2015, the PROTECT Center was poised to assist the CDC with Zika surveillance and prevention efforts in Puerto Rico, and Cordero regularly flies to there to check on expectant mothers at risk for preterm births or contracting the Zika virus.
"At the outbreak of the Zika virus threat, he was the first to organize a conference with physicians and other health professionals to educate them and implement plans for managing the threats of Zika for people in Puerto Rico," said Carmen Velez-Vega, an associate professor of social sciences at the University of Puerto Rico Graduate School of Public Health and principal investigator with the PROTECT and CRECE programs. "In my opinion, Dr. Cordero talks the talk and walks the walk."
Cordero is a former national trustee of the March of Dimes Foundation, a nonprofit organization that works to improve the health of mothers and babies, and he is a longtime member and past president of the Teratology Society, an international and multidisciplinary group of scientists who study birth defects, reproduction and disorders of developmental origin.
"Throughout his career, Dr. Cordero has been a dedicated and passionate teacher, mentor, and leader in public health," said Dr. Hani K. Atrash, director of the Division of Healthy Start and Perinatal Services within the Maternal and Child Health Bureau at the U.S. Health Resources and Services Administration. "He has touched and affected the lives of hundreds of public health workers in the United States and globally, including my own."
UGA Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost Pamela Whitten lauded Cordero for his contributions to advancing health and also for inspiring students.
"Dr. Cordero's record of accomplishment underscores his unwavering commitment to helping people lead healthier lives," Whitten said. "His students go on to make significant contributions of their own, resulting in a far-reaching, world-changing impact."
The APHA notes that the Sedgwick medal is "a true accolade of the profession—the recognition by an individual's colleagues of outstanding accomplishments in the field of public health."
"I'm honored for this recognition and in awe for the many distinguished heroes of public health that have been recognized with this award," said Cordero. "Public health work requires a community, and this recognition goes to the many wonderful colleagues that I have worked with during my career."
The award was established in 1929 in honor of William Thompson Sedgwick in recognition of his service and advancement of the public health field. Sedgwick was president of APHA in 1915 and led the department of biological and public health at Massachusetts Institute of Technology until 1921.
Previous recipients of the award include epidemiologist William H. Foege, credited with eradicating smallpox and Nile River Virus; nursing pioneer Margaret G. Arnstein, whose national leadership in public health nursing helped modernize the profession; and immunologist Hans Zinsser, who first isolated the typhus bacterium and developed a protective vaccine.

If you want to safely degrease your vehicle the Optimum Power Clean is an excellent choice for you. It is an environmentally safe product that can help you clean your paint, wheels, tires, engine bay, wheel wells, trim and so much more. The strong cleaning agents break down bug smear, road grime, brake dust, dirt, etc. The washing process can be prone to adding ultra fine scratches to the surface when you have to scrub extra hard or large contaminants become trapped in your wash mitt. Before washing we highly recommend you pre-treat the surface with the Optimum Power Clean. Simply spray areas with heavy build-ups and it will safely break them up, then just rinse the surface and you'll instantly notice the build-ups quickly dissolved. For extra stubborn stains apply a second treatment and let it sit for at least 1 - 2 minutes and then agitate with a paint-safe mitt or sponge. It is not just effective on paint, use it on wheels, tires, engine bay and so much more! The Optimum Power Clean is a great value because you can dilute it 3:1 with water or use it full strength. It is unbelievably easy to use, highly effective and a perfect product for virtually any detailer.
Power Clean really is a wonderful APC. If you are looking for a powerful yet safe APC, look no further than Optimum's Power Clean. It really is an amazing all around cleanser that does dirty work and gentle cleaning.
Optimum Power Clean is a revolutionary product that is specially formulated to clean wheels and tires as well as all other automotive surfaces. It's environmentally friendly, and safe for the user. Power Clean will work on everything that is dirty! Use it at full strength for the toughest dirt, grime, and brake dust, or dilute it up to 3:1 for the lighter jobs. The special polymers and emulsifiers will work to break down and dissolve the toughest problem areas of a vehicle. Use it on everything!
For use on wheels and tires: can be used at full strength or diluted up to 3:1. Agitate as needed and rinse off. For use on painted surfaces, dilute at 3:1 for the best results. Spray on, agitate and rinse. For use on interior panels, dilute at 3:1. Spray on and wipe off.
DO NOT APPLY TO SURFACES OVER 120F or ALLOW PRODUCT TO DRY ON SURFACE.
Cleaned paint from tough winter grime located at the rear of oxford white car easily using prescribed 3:1 dilution ratio.
I figured I would try a product that Ive heard recommended so many times on forums. I diluted the product 3:1 at first and then went to 10:1. Dirt and debris melt away with little agitation. Door jambs are spotless, interior is dirt and grease free and most of all there is no sticky residue left behind! Definitely a top 5 APC.
I'm used to buying dollar store degreaser so it was a little hard for me to spend the money on this, but I'm glad I did! This stuff works great and different dilutions give you different results! I'm now a believer!

The European City: Suggestions for further strategic positioning of the C.E.U.
Eingeordnet unter Artikel
Harald Kegler
Meanwhile the C.E.U. has acquired a little history: five years ago the initiative emerged, getting transatlantic support and needing enormous efforts during the first years. In this way, it didn't take very long to compose and to adopt a charter, which, in addition, was extended in special fields in the individual national groups or chapters, as for instance in Germany. During several conferences in Stockholm or Lisbon, the content of the profile was successfully improved. A foundation for future projects was set up, and furthermore, medial means of communication inclusive own internet web sites were arranged, where the initiative of the British partners should be emphasized, and contributions were published. Apart from this, participants in Norway managed to establish an EC educational project, which has meanwhile achieved a second stage. Here the C.E.U. serves as a "medium" of initiative.
All the facts mentioned above are all the more remarkable, as they are caused by the activities of a small non-profit-initiative, having no organisation apparatus and no finances of its own. The "offices" in Oslo and London do their work very commendably; otherwise we wouldn't have achieved so much. Unquestionably, the highlights of the activities done up to now were the conferences. After the preparatory convention held in Brussels/Brügge and the foundation congress held in Stockholm, we succeeded in holding the 1st International Congress in Berlin with well-known participants. A second congress was held in Leeds, and the third congress, which will be held in Oslo in 2008, will improve the outline of the C.E.U…
The C.E.U. has not yet become a movement or a mass organisation, but nevertheless it is beginning to show, that there is a need for such a network institution dealing with the topic of the "European City". At the same time, overseas (especially in the U.S.A., but also in Australia, Israel and Latin America) the New Urbanism is actually developing into a movement characterized by remarkable content and extension. Many people do still smile at it and are suspicious of it, but it has managed to be discussed and to present answers to urgent practical questions with regard to urban and regional development. The C.E.U. would not be conceivable without this movement, which is organising itself formally for 15 years. The C.E.U. sees itself absolutely as a part of this movement, although being entitled to have an own profile. There are good reasons for this.
We have overcome the initial stage of the C.E.U. It is a success which was possible only as a result of the persistent efforts of many people, not at least the efforts of the first chairman and the secretary of the initiative. But now a stage of a new quality seems to begin, even to become necessary. Despite of the Charter, the conferences and publications, the importance and perspective of the C.E.U. and its individual chapters is still relatively indistinct outwardly, although all the participants and a certain number of sympathisers appreciate the formation of such an initiative which feels itself bound to the traditions of urban development and architecture, and which seeks for taking them up into the planning for the future (at least, that's the way outsiders often see it). So now, after the beginnings have been managed, it is important to determine the exact position, to intensify the effectiveness and to clear the profile of the C.E.U… But one thing shall not get lost: we must remain open for as much as possible views and opinions, professions and backgrounds within a programmatic framework, as just this bears an essential chance for shaping the profile of the C.E.U. as an open network (in contrast to professional or interest organisations). Nevertheless, this will not be enough to get noticed and to gain more influence.
Apart from the content and concrete projects that we can offer, we "own" an especially important thing: the "European City". As the name of the network shows already – it is an initiative FOR European urbanism.
The European City stands for a model that was built lived in and planned for a relatively successful way of urbanisation in the course of the centuries. The European City has proved to be a flexible and at the same time long-lasting social-spatial system, that has come through great changes and is embedded in the consciousness of the people not only in Europe. It is not only an economical and social, and definitely not only an academic property, but also an emotional one that is the embodiment of such things like home and European identity. Furthermore, the European City represents a model, which was successful in comparison with other models, as for example the so-called American City, especially with regard to coping with crises, phases of development and recession, social stability, economical prosperity or ecological maintenance. Well, THE European City actually does not exist. It rather concerns a spectrum of built, lived and planned city-regions with a relative variety of shaping, which, nevertheless, share several characteristics, like compactness, limitedness, social variety, differentiation of public spaces with mixed use, cultural requirements, integration of historical sections or architectural variety – a reference to all this is embedded in the Charter of the C.E.U.
Meanwhile this model is being copied and newly invented world-wide, and it is regarded as especially attractive for economical, cultural and tourist projects. The European City as a type is particularly characterized by different epochs, as the medieval town (and – the medieval village, which should not be forgotten), the unique baroque town (a phenomena in the world), the city expansion in the years of rapid industrial development, the Garden City – a model, that has kept its attractiveness until today, the socially and structurally ambitious housing and public buildings of different architecture between the wars in the 20th century, the new cities that were built after the war referring to traditions of the European City (from Le Havre to Eisenhüttenstadt), the reconstructed towns (as for instance the old parts of Ypern and Warsaw, nowadays world cultural heritage), but recently also the city of critical reconstruction and ecological renovation.
A special mark of the European City is the decentralised city region. This is generally an important key for future prospects of urban systems. With regard to construction, but also to planning / conception Europe has made decisive contributions in this field. Especially in the United States just these contributions are adopted, thus trying to ban the urban and social scourge, the sprawl, and to head for a social-economical future. Even among sceptics, the European City is regarded as benchmark of the international disputes on urbanisation.
Naturally, during the last 50 years the European City could not escape the car dominated transformation of inner-city districts, sprawling expansion, expanse demolition, overdevelopment of landscapes and change of city and village centres into facades for tourists or sterile uniform ensembles. The requirements of the climatic change affect Europe, too. The European City is not a result of an automatic process. Someone thought that the European City will lose the importance in the future. The opposite is the reality. The European City has proved to be a type of lasting development and can be represented world-wide as a successful development model for an urban future under changing conditions. The European City will also be a successful model in the post-industrial age and in the period after the cheapen energy.
And there things have come full circle: the C.E.U. can and must function as a networker as well as an advocate, as a specialist, valuator, adviser and mediator, but also as a planner of concrete model projects in the sense of the European City.
Here it is necessary to bring out the historically durable structures of the European City (of various epochs) and to make it available as a challenge for actual planning. At the same time it is important to integrate international experiences supporting the planning and further development of the European City, as for instance the method of Charrette, the LEED-standards or the Transect-concept developed in the U.S.A… Furthermore, the planning and building practices in Europe – particularly those developed since 1975 -, the aim of which was to recover the European City, should be integrated into the actual discussion on the planning of the European City. Some of them are:
The system Shared Spaces by Mondermann (Netherlands);
The City-regional energy autarky (Austria, Germany, Italy…);
The urban protection of historical monuments/buildings and the
Careful renovation of cities / critical reconstruction (Poland, Germany, Italy…);
The Urban Renaissance, that means strategies for reviving of city centres,
Old industry areas and city quarters (England, Ireland, Poland, Germany, Spain…);
The redesigning of the public space (Scandinavia, France, Germany, Spain, Italy…);
The strategies of interim use and of the dealing with shrinkage (Germany, France…);
The 3rd International Congress of the C.E.U. in Oslo is an important opportunity to strengthen the profile of the C.E.U. and, in addition, to convey the message, that the European City is a model that can effectively be regarded as a means of prevention and after-care in connection with the climate change. That does not mean that this goes automatically. We must rather find out carefully, which elements of the built and planned European City can be considered to be future-orientated under the point of view of the climatic change. In this connection the congress has an important task: to work out specific solutions with regard to the challenges of the climatic change with reference to European urban development – from the historical as well as from the actual point of view.
Naturally, these aspects have to be completed by non-European experiences and knowledge. This is demonstrated by the articles for the Oslo Congress announced from all over the world.
The C.E.U. would become the promoter or the European City – as a platform for discussions and for international exchange of experiences, offering qualification and concrete model projects. The future of the city, of city quarters and rural areas asks more and more for feasible solutions beyond the understanding of modernity, which ignores the identity of the European City. Insofar, the C.E.U. can put its objectives and aims in more concrete terms, and it can more often take the offensive. Furthermore, this should be used as an opportunity to talk to the American, Australian, Israeli and other partners, in order to sharpen the profile of the C.E.U. in the ensemble of the New Urbanism Movement and to strengthen the movement as a whole.
Under this point of view the effectiveness of the internal organisational and cooperation structures of the C.E.U. should be improved. This should be discussed in connection with the preparation of the Oslo Congress. At the same time it is necessary to force up selectively the expansion of the European partnerships. A very important partner is Romania, but also Poland, the Baltic countries, Russia and of course South Europe. The question of a (representative) headquarters of the C.E.U. must be settled as well as questions of the forms of cooperation, internal democratic procedures and public relations work. The basis has been created, on which we can build up our further work.
With regard to the prospects of the C.E.U., the congresses should be the anchors of cooperation, extension and content of the work. The places and subjects of the next congresses should be fixed in Oslo, whereby the middle of Eastern Europe and the South should be considered primarily. A two year interval could be helpful, so that there is enough time for making preparations. Between the congresses events of the national Chapters could be organized. The C.E.U. should be visibly represented at the annual CNU congresses in the U.S.A. as well as at the events in Israel or Australia and make there own contributions. Joint projects and events, as already practiced in initial stages in Brussels or Stockholm would support the transatlantic exchange. Nevertheless, in this connection the C.E.U. has to make up a lot with regard to systematic introduction of own contributions.
An important means for improving the communication are model projects, which can clear up the opinions and conceptions of the C.E.U… Under this point of view the national Chapters should consider, which projects can be regarded as representative for the European City and its future.
The Congress in Oslo is the right time for the C.E.U. to bring before the public a clear declaration of belief in the European City at a new stage as a suitable model for the future.

Can you believe that this is the same Master Bedroom? Well it is. What did we do to change the look and feel of this room? Several creative things were done.
1. If you want to make an immediate change to any space, change the wall color. Paint is your best friend when Staging or Decorating a room. This burgundy color was too strong and dark for the room. When selling your home, stick with neutral colors to visually enlarge the space. We used Sherwin Williams #6071 Popular Grey to lighten the space, and what a difference the new color made.
2. You may have noticed that we changed the orientation of the furniture. Furniture placement is important when Staging your home. Buyers want to see space, and when you walk into the Master Bedroom, the positioning of the bed will be important to how the room will show. Re-position furniture pieces so it makes sense to the floor plan.
Contact Captiva Design for all your Redesign needs. Use what you have to create looks that potential Buyers want. We can help you! Contact us at 954.205.6555 to schedule your Consultation. ALL Budgets, ALL Styles.
We can add the finishing details to your bathroom by adding custom frames to any existing mirror. It's so simple, you select the frame you like, we'll measure and place the order. Within days, we will install your frames, and BAM! You have a amazing new look.
Installation is so easy. No mess. Frames can be pre-assembled for quick installation.
Finishing touch! Looks so nice. This client wanted a clean and contemporary feel. The brushed nickel frame was an excellent choice.
Cool & Calming. We used light grey as the accent wall color. Coupled with white low-profile furniture and clean lines, this bedroom conveys a South Beach look and feel.

FICTITIOUS PARTY PLEADING - EX PARTE YONUS ISMAIL, M.D.
In Ex parte Yonus Ismail, M.D., [Ms. 1100726, Aug. 12, 2011] So. 3d (Ala. 2011), Randy Paradise ("Plaintiff") suffered fall-related injuries while a patient at Highlands Medical Center ("HMC"). Plaintiff filed suit against HMC. Plaintiff's complaint named 17 fictitious defendants. Through pre-trial discovery, Plaintiff filed discovery requests asking HMC to identify the physician in charge of Plaintiff's care. HMC objected to these requests. Plaintiff then filed a motion to compel HMC to identify the physician in charge of Plaintiff's care, which was granted. After two months had passed and HMC had not yet identified the physician in charge of Plaintiff's care, Plaintiff filed a motion for sanctions. HMC filed a response to Plaintiff's motion and simultaneously supplemented HMC's previous discovery responses. These supplemental responses identified Ismail as a physician in charge of Plaintiff's care. This supplement was provided after the statute of limitations had expired. Plaintiff amended his complaint to substitute Ismail for one of the fictitiously named defendants. Ismail then moved for summary judgment, arguing that the statute of limitations had expired. The trial court denied Ismail's motion. Ismail petitioned the court for a writ of mandamus. Relying chiefly on reference to Ismail in Plaintiff's medical records and on Ex parte Snow, 764 So. 2d 531 (Ala. 1991), the Alabama Supreme Court held that Plaintiff "did not exercise due diligence in identifying [Ismail] as a party." The Court granted Ismail's petition and issued the writ.


Recently, adidas real yeezy boost announced that the Yeezy Boost 350 V2 "Triple White", a key market, will be released for the first time on Tmall.
Tmall's sales figures were even higher than adity.com itself, according to sources.
The timing of the launch may have put adidas in competition with longtime rival Nike: sales in greater China were up 27 percent in the prior report, with sales growth of more than 20 real yeezy boost percent for 10 consecutive quarters. And just a few days ago, Nike released its latest earnings report, and its greater China region also had a brilliant performance, which not only topped $5 billion in revenue for the first time, but also recorded 16 consecutive quarters of double-digit growth.
The rivalry between the two giants will intensify as earnings reports follow. Industry analysts point out that the Chinese market will become a new battleground between the two brands. And Tmall is a huge market that both sides have to grab.
The YEEZY shoe, dubbed "coconut" by fans as one of adidas's top-of-the-line products, was previously only available for members to buy on the company's website and was sold every time. And, according to sneaker lovers, most of those shoes go to well-informed scalpers, who sell them for many times more than the item itself.
Therefore, in order to real yeezy boost grab a pair of genuine coconut shoes with a customer price of nearly 2,000 yuan, coconut powder needs to set an alarm clock ahead of time to make a good strategy, and at any time to prevent the official website server from collapsing due to the massive influx of users. And this year because it's available at Tmall, that's no longer the case. Not long ago, Tmall just launched a fashion shoe queuing system, consumers can fairly shake the number to get the qualification of buying fashion shoes, and when the goods go online, buy again.
The strong sales of coconut real yeezy boost shoes on Tmall means that adidas is forward-looking in its marketing strategy. Compared with Nike, which has been sluggish in recent years in fashion shoes, coconut shoes firmly occupy the market with the largest consumption power and are still the benchmark of the most fashionable sneakers.

The page provides a depth of field (DOF) calculator for photography. The depth of field is the section or range of the photo which will be sharp. The section is defined by a near sharpness limit distance and a far sharpness limit distance. Anything between these two limiting distances will be sharp. The sharpness limes are based on the f-stop value, lens focal length, subject distance and the circle of confusion of the camera.
Note, if you manually enter the lens focal length, subject distance or circle of confusion, the ENTER or RETURN keyboard button needs to be pressed. This will cause the calculations to be updated.
Manufacture/Type/Model Select the manufacture of your camera. These selections set the circle of confusion parameter. The calculator uses a circle of confusion of 0.030 millimeter for a 35mm format. The circle of confusion is adjusted by the crop factor if needed.
f-stop This is the aperture setting to be used when shooting your photo.
Lens focal length The focal length of your lens in millimeters. Note, do not multiply the focal length by the camera body's crop factor. This calculator automatically adjusts and calibrates the lens.
subject or focus distance This is the distance from the camera to the subject being photographed.
circle of confusion This is related to the final resolution of the image. It is based on the sensor size, image size and the viewing distance.


Very personable. Great doctor to keep me out of a wheelchair and low pain after 30 years of RA.
Beautiful and clean facility. Loved it! I would never go anywhere else. Staff are very friendly and helpful.
It's nice to be able to do labs and some imaging in the same building as your doctor.


Last Saturday night, Irish time, the Roll Tide of Alabama beat the Bulldogs of Georgia 35-28 in front of 77,141 people.
One of the biggest games in College American football saw Nick Saban's Alabama side confirm their number one seed for the upcoming College Football playoffs.
If you don't watch College American Football, you should.
It is like the NFL which may be more familiar to some, but it is a hell of a lot bigger.
You see, every state has a college football team, while not every state has a NFL franchise.
The NFL is not the be all and end all of people's week, their college team is.
Like with everything in life, lessons can be learned from the sporting melting pot that is the US of A.
I am not saying that college soccer or hurling or rugby will every replicate 77,000+ crowds or anything like that, but we can take some lessons from the collegiate structures in the US.
They are basically breeding grounds for the tier above them. The best, each year from the college football landscape are 'drafted' into the NFL.
Is this something that might suit some sports in this country?
If we were, lets say, to draft players each season from club sides into the professional leagues, it might give more of a clear pathway for our professional sports.
Would it be possible for top Leinster Senior league soccer players or LDMC players, should they want to turn pro, to be offered contracts by the lowest ranking Airtricity sides? Maybe even look at the academy slots of Munster, Leinster, Connacht and Ulster being filled by players who would 'declare' for a draft and be picked up on a four rotation system. Meaning the best player each season would go to the lowest ranked team.
It may be (American) pie in the sky, but it is food for thought, no?

As you have been aware, the developing of a plan for Arizona's use of the Colorado River between Glen Canyon and Lake Mead has brought forth many attitudes and positions from within Arizona. The reconciling of these sincerely held attitudes and positions has been a problem, but we are happy to be able to show you, through this memorandum, that the views of those agencies who have thus far expressed to us active interest in Arizona's use of this stretch of the river have been accommodated in a plan of procedure to which all subscribe.
Arizona's first concrete step toward development of this stretch of the river was its filing with the Federal Power Commission in 1938 a request for a permit to investigate the hydroelectric potential at the Bridge Canyon site. This request, made by Arizona through the now defunct Colorado River Commission, drew adverse reactions from other interested states and from the Bureau of Reclamation, and Arizona chose to leave the request dermant.
The Arizona Power Authority succeeded to the Colorado River Commission's interest in this filing in 1944, but by then Arizona was well into studies, with the Bureau of Reclamation, of the Central Arizona Project, of which the high Bridge Canyon Dam was a most important feature. (In this memorandum, we shall use the term "high Bridge Canyon" to designate that development which, with a headwater alevation of 1866, would encroach upon the Grand Canyon National Fark and Monument. We shall use the term "low Bridge Canyon" to designate the development at Bridge Canyon for which Arizona is presently seeking a Federal Power Commission license; with a headwater alevation of 1610 the backwater would not invade either the Park or Monument. "High Bridge Canyon" would require Congressional approval; "low Bridge Canyon" would not.) Arizona was actively pursuing the Central Arizona Project course until 1951, when Congressional committees made it apparent that Arizona must litigate its rights to Colorado River water before it could bring its development plans to fruition. Arizona has been in that litigation since that time and is apparently well along toward a favorable conclusion.

A Reader's Guide to Book Pairings: Fiction and Nonfiction by Linnea Benton
Hello again, and welcome to this edition of Campbell Unclassified!
It's a brand new year, full of new horizons to explore, new challenges to overcome, new books to read! Have you made a reading goal for yourself this year? Maybe you want to try revisiting all your old favorites. Or head off on wild adventures with some epic fantasy. You could try some new skills with some how to books and our Library of Things. Read every James Patterson novel? Check out our new travel guides and plan your dream vacation? Try one of those "100 books to read before you die" challenges?
Whatever your fancy, one of the first decisions many people make is whether or not they are going to read fiction or nonfiction. Me? I say, "why not both?!"
With that in mind, I would like to share some great book pairings with you; books that go together like Doc and Marty, peanut butter and jelly, Kirk and Spock, like wine and cheese!
Fans of Bridgerton Unite!
Whether you first met Julia Quinn's Bridgerton family on Netflix or in the novels, you may be interested in The Time Traveler's Guide to Regency Britain: a handbook for visitors to 1789-1830 (for other novels set in Regency Britain, try authors Mary Balogh or Georgette Heyer).
American Tragedy
I highly recommend The Nickel Boys by Colson Whitehead. Then check out The White House Boys by Roger Dean Kiser--on which it was based--and We Carry Their Bones: the search for justice at the Dozier School for Boys, a new book detailing the recent forensic work done on the ground of the old reformatory school.
Journey to the Red Planet
There is a lot of great science fiction out there about space travel. For adventures on our planetary neighbor, try The Martian Chronicles by Ray Bradbury or The Martian by Andy Weir. Then pick up Packing for Mars (comes in a children's edition, too!) or Dinner on Mars if you'd like to know about the science behind making a visit to Mars possible.
Digging Up Dinosaurs!
Who DOESN'T love dinosaurs?! We have so many books about dinosaurs, you're sure to find something you like, but have you read about Mary Anning? Check out Tracy Chevalier's Remarkable Creatures for a tale of female friendship and fossils, and The Fossil Hunter: dinosaurs, evolution and the woman whose discoveries changed the world by Shelley Emling. Share her story with the kids with these children's books: Mary Anning's Curiosity, Dragon Bones, or Fossil Hunter!
Crime on the American Frontier
The infamous Bloody Benders are thought to be responsible for the gruesome murders of over a dozen men and one infant in Kansas between 1872 and 1873. The excellently researched Hell's Half-Acre by Susan Jonusas is thoroughly engrossing. I can't wait to check out the novel All the Blood We Share by Camilla Bruce!

Avila Perspective, Chap. 140: Colbert vs Nyambayar and Other L.A. Fights
Finding the next big thing may seem as easy as finding a Chris Colbert. It's not easy.
Brooklyn's Colbert (15-0, 6 KOs) tangles with Tug Nyambayar (12-1, 9 KOs) of Mongolia on Saturday, July 3, at the Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, Calif. Showtime will televise the TGB Promotions fight card.
Colbert's speed will test Nyambayar's toughness in a super featherweight battle for the interim WBA title. It's set for 12 rounds.
Most believe speed and reflexes can out-match anything including strength. Go on believing that and you will be severely disappointed in the end.
Though Colbert does have the gifts of athleticism he's shown more than sizzling combinations and speed afoot. He's also shown fighting instincts and most importantly of all, the ability to take a shot and keep going.
Nyambayar has only one loss on his resume and that came against world champion Gary Russell Jr. for the WBC featherweight title back in February 2020. No one else has beaten the 2012 Olympic silver medalist.
The famous outdoor stadium where so many "Fight of the Year" bouts took place like Timothy Bradley Jr. and Ruslan Provodnikov in 2013 or Israel Vazquez and Rafael Marquez in 2008, will finally be open to 100 percent capacity.
Few places rival the Dignity Health Sports Park which was formerly the StubHub Center and before that the Home Depot Center. It's a tennis stadium that seems perfectly suited for prizefighting.
"This is my first 130 pounds (fight) but I'm ready for this," said Nyambayar who trains in Los Angeles. "We are here to win. My team is here to win. That's it."
Colbert doesn't believe anyone from 126 pounds can move up a weight division and compete with him.
"He knows he is in for some trouble. Nobody can take a fight in a week and fight me," said Colbert. "I know damn well he ain't beating me."
Lightweight contenders Michel Rivera (20-0, 13 KOs) and Jon Fernandez (21-1, 18 KOs) also clash in a 12-round bout.
Rivera hails from the Dominican Republic and trains out of Miami, Florida. He's eager to prove himself.
"I know this is my opportunity. This is my time. I know he hits hard," said Rivera.
Fernandez is nearly six-feet-tall and fights out of Spain. Knockouts are his game.
"He is a good boxer but this is a fight to be in the big leagues," said Fernandez of his foe. "This Saturday fight is a 50-50 proposition."

Closer to the heart of Los Angeles another large boxing card takes place in one week at the Banc of California Stadium on Friday, July 9.
Golden Boy Promotions, based in downtown Los Angeles, finally brings a show in walking distance of its offices when Gilberto "Zurdo" Ramirez meets Sullivan Barrera in a light heavyweight clash. DAZN will stream most of the card. The first half will include six televised fights including two female world title fights featuring Japan's two premier world champions clashing with top American fighters. Seniesa "Super Bad" Estrada meets WBO light flyweight titlist Tsunami Tenkai and Sulem Urbina fights WBA flyweight titlist Naoko Fujioka.
These two female battles should not be missed.
Others included on the Golden Boy card are Jojo Diaz meeting Javier Fortuna in a lightweight match. It was Fortuna who was scheduled to meet Ryan Garcia but now finds himself against former super featherweight world titlist Diaz who is moving up a weight division for this fight.

Flyweight Contender
Southern California's Ricardo Sandoval (19-1, 14 KOs) traveled to Bolton, England for a June 25 flyweight title elimination bout with Welsh fighter Jay Harris (18-2, 9 KOs) and won by knockout in the eighth round. Body shots were the method of destruction.
Sandoval fights out of Riverside, California and was recently seen on a Golden Boy Promotions fight card at Fantasy Springs Casino a year ago. He's a slick fighting power-puncher who was able to stop Harris by knockout. Not even WBC champion Julio Cesar Martinez could stop Harris.
Last weekend Gervonta "Tank" Davis (25-0, 24 KOs) exhibited a few of the skills not always seen when he defeated Mario Barrios (26-1, 17 KOs) for a version of the WBA super lightweight title in Atlanta. A large crowd of more than 15,000 witnessed the fight.
Though not very tall for 140-pounds, Davis showed that he's more than just a puncher; he can also carry out a fight strategy and figure out how to neutralize a taller fighter with power. It was another side of Tank.
The fight between Tank and Barrios will be shown again on Saturday by Showtime along with the Chris Colbert versus Tug Nyambayar super featherweight match.
Now it's up to Davis and Mayweather Promotions to decide which direction to go. He's a proven star and fan attraction and that means he can go where he wants to go. He has world titles in three weight divisions so his options are pretty limitless. Plus, he's one of the most exciting fighters out there alongside Saul "Canelo" Alvarez.
Fights to Watch
Sat. Showtime 6 p.m. Chris Colbert (15-0) vs Tug Nyambayar (12-1); replay of Gervonta Davis (25-0) vs. Mario Barrios (26-1).

Is Gervonta Davis Boxing's New "Money" Man?
Arne K. Lang
It's now official. The twice-postponed "grudge match" between Jake Paul and Tommy Fury will come to fruition on Sunday, Feb. 26, at Riyadh in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. An 8-rounder contested at a catch-weight of 185 pounds, the match and several supporting bouts will air in the U.S. on ESPN+ PPV at a cost of $49.99.
The hook for this promotion – a come-hither that will be hammered home incessantly in the coming weeks – is that Jake Paul will finally touch gloves with a legitimate professional boxer. Paul's previous opponents were a fellow YouTube influencer (AnEsonGib), a retired NBA player (Nate Robinson), and three former MMA champions: Ben Askren, Tyron Woodley, and Anderson Silva. He fought Woodley twice.
Tommy Fury, the half-brother of reigning WBC world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, made his pro debut in December of 2018 in a four-round bout in his hometown of Manchester. He was two fights into his pro career when he became a contestant on the TV reality show "Love Island." An enormously popular show in Great Britain, especially among the coveted 18-34 demographic, "Love Island" was in its fifth season.
Fury was paired with supermodel Molly-Mae Hague with whom he finished second. They developed a great chemistry, on and off the set, became engaged, and purportedly welcomed a baby girl this week.
What about Tommy Fury the boxer? How legitimate is he?
Fury's record currently stands at 8-0 (4 KOs). His first opponent was a professional loser from Latvia whose current ledger reads 10-113-3. His next six opponents were a combined 4-73-2. Finally, in his last fight, which occurred in April of last year, he met an opponent with a good record, Poland's Daniel Bocianski, who was 10-1. But look closer and one discovers that all but one of Bocianski's 10 triumphs came against opponents with losing records. The exception was a 6-round decision over a fellow Pole whose record currently stands at 18-16-1 and who has been stopped 13 times.
Fury bloodied Bocianski and won a wide 6-round decision, but his performance was underwhelming. "Fury had the Hollywood teeth, tan, and diamante-colored shorts," wrote Chasinga Malata of the London Sun, "leaving only his performance without sheen and sparkle."
There is nothing in Tommy Fury's background, aside from his biological pedigree, to suggest that he has the tools to become a world-class boxer. If he were a member of the Three Stooges, he would be Shemp.
Jake Paul, by contrast, may actually be legit. Those in the know that have watched him train have come away impressed. It says here that Paul isn't moving up in class on Feb. 26; it's the other way around.
In the co-feature, Ilunga Makabu (29-2, 25 KOs) will make the third defense of his WBC world cruiserweight title against Badou Jack (27-3-3, 16 KOs). A Congolese-South African, Makabu is the older brother of heavyweight contender Martin Bakole. Jack, four years older than Makabu at age 39, formerly held world titles at 168 and 175 pounds.
Although Badou Jack was born in Sweden and keeps a home in Las Vegas where he has long been affiliated with the Mayweather Boxing Club, he will have the home field advantage in Saudi Arabia where he has cultivated a loyal following. A devout Muslim, Jack will be making his fourth straight start in the Persian Gulf Region. In his last outing, he outpointed Richard "Popeye" Rivera at Jeddah, winning a 10-round split decision.
Badou Jack
Big money prizefighting returns to the Los Angeles area with back-to-back shows. First, Serhii Bohachuk heads a 360 Promotions card on Friday and then Alexis Rocha is featured on Saturday in a Golden Boy Promotions production. And on the same day Riverside's Saul Rodriguez fights in his hometown.
Bohachuk, Rocha, and Rodriguez are aggressive big hitters.
Ukraine's Bohachuk seeks to regain footing in the super welterweight division. He was rapidly climbing up the ratings ladder when first he was defeated by Brandon Adams two years ago. And then the invasion of his home country Ukraine stalled him even more.
On Friday Jan. 27, at the Quiet Cannon in Montebello, Calif. Bohachuk (21-1, 21 KOs) meets Nathaniel Gallimore (22-6-1, 17 KOs) in the main event. UFC Fight Pass will stream the 360 Boxing Promotions card.
Few fighters are as well-liked outside of the prize ring as Bohachuk. Always amiable, he's one of the handful of fighters that always smiles. Inside the ring, he's a killer. No one leaves without someone getting knocked out.
Gallimore, 34, is no slouch. He has a knockout win over former world titlist Jeison Rosario and has battled almost all of the top super welterweights. He is a veteran and very crafty.
The Quiet Cannon venue is not very large, but it does have a patio and good food and drink. Most of the crowd ventures from all over Southern California to attend the fights at that venue. It gets packed.
Golden Boy in Inglewood
Welterweight contender Alexis Rocha headlines the Golden Boy Promotions card on Saturday, Jan. 28, at the brand new YouTube Theater in Inglewood, Calif. DAZN will stream the fight card.
Rocha (21-1, 13 KOs) faces George Ashie (33-5-1) in the main event set for 12 rounds. Finally, there is an opponent for the left-handed fighter from Santa Ana. It didn't look like he was going to fight after opponent after opponent fell out for one reason or another.
"You have to be ready for anybody they put in front of you. If it's you or George Ashie, I have to prepare for it. I have to focus on what I can do," said Rocha.
Others on the card include super middleweight Bektemir Melikuziev (10-1) vs Ulises Sierra (17-2-2) set for 10 rounds. Also, good looking lightweight prospect Floyd Schofield (12-0, 10 KOs) meets Alberto Mercado (17-4-1).
Schofield fights out of Austin, Texas and looks like someone to watch.
Doors open at 3 p.m.
Neno Returns in San Bernardino
Garcia Promotions stages a boxing card on Saturday Jan. 28, at the Club Event Center in San Bernardino. Garcia Promotions is associated with trainer Robert Garcia and family whose training compound is located in nearby Riverside.
A primarily local fight card featuring all fighters from Garcia's gym will be performing.
Headlining is Saul "Neno" Rodriguez out of Riverside, California.
It's been nearly three years since Rodriguez (24-1-1, 18 KOs) last fought and he faces Mexico's Juan Meza Angulo (6-1, 3 KOs) in the co-main event.
At one time Rodriguez was a big fan favorite because of his fast work and knockout ability. Once he got to the top plateau he ran into another knockout puncher in Miguel Angel Gonzalez and lost by stoppage.
Prizefighting is a tricky road. One loss can mean difficulty in finding a big-time promoter or it can mean discovering what you need to do to re-establish your skills. A fighter can go the road of Kermit "The Killer" Cintron and find out other ways to win without a kill-or be-killed style. Or they can travel the road of Marco Antonio Barrera who was knocked out by Junior Jones but adapted a more boxer-puncher style that allowed him to defeat Erik Morales twice and Prince Naseem Hamed.
Rodriguez, 29, still has time to make a good run for a title bid. It all starts on Saturday.
Others on the Garcia Promotions card are fighters who are part of trainer Garcia's stable including Gabriel Muratalla, Leonardo Ruiz, Jose Rodriguez and others.
Doors open at 4 p.m. with amateurs opening the boxing program.
Fri. UFC Fight Pass 7 p.m. Serhii Bohachuk (21-1) vs Nathaniel Gallimore (22-6-1).
Sat. ESPN+ 11:30 a.m. Artur Beterbiev (18-0) vs Anthony Yarde (23-2).
Sat. DAZN 5 p.m. Alexis Rocha (21-1) vs George Ashie (33-5-1).
J.J. Alvarez
Russian Artur Beterbiev, triple champion of the 175-pound division, is the only current world champion who, thanks to the enormous power he wields in his fists, has won all his fights inside the distance.
Beterbiev has 18 victories by way of chloroform since he debuted as a professional fighter in June 2013 when he anesthetized retired American, Christian Cruz, in the tenth round at the Bell Center in Montreal where Beterbiev currently resides.
Beterbiev, who turned thirty-eight last Saturday, will defend his WBC, IBF, and WBO titles against Brit Anthony "The Beast from the East" Yarde (23-2, 22 KOs) on Saturday, January 28th at the OVO Arena in London.
Beterbiev obtained the WBO belt on June 18th this past year when he defeated American Joe Smith (28-4, 22 KOs) in the second round at Madison Square Garden. This was Smith's second defense of the belt.
Earlier, in November 2017, Beterbiev won the vacant IBF belt after defeating German Enrico Koelling (28-5, 9 KOs) by knockout in the twelfth round in Fresno, California.
Two years later, Beterbiev seized the WBC belt from Ukrainian Oleksandr Gvozdyk (17-1, 14 KOs) in Philadelphia. Three knockdowns in the tenth round forced referee Gary Rosato to stop the lopsided bout with 11 seconds remaining in the round. Beterbiev maintains that although his intention is to win each fight, in no way does he want to harm his rival and that his greatest wish is for both of them to leave the ring healthy.
Referring to his upcoming matchup, Beterbiev told BoxingScene that "after the fight, I just hope he (Yarde) is okay."
He acknowledged that he does not know much about the British boxer, although he has watched several of his fights: "He's a good fighter, has good experience as a professional and he's a boxer. He's dangerous so I have to prepare for this fight like I always do."
Beterbiev said that his main motivation is to successfully defend the three belts he owns and that is why he will try to be one hundred percent ready and then it will be evident who is the better fighter.
Regarding his knockout streak, Beterbiev emphatically denied that he enjoys knocking out his opponents: "No. There's no pleasure in it. I just hope everything is OK with them. I just want to do good boxing, not hit people."
Beterbiev smiles enigmatically and stares at the horizon when they ask him to what he attributes the strength of his fists to. "I know for sure, 1000 percent, that the secret to my power is somewhere in my boxing gym but I don't know exactly where," he adds. "I don't know which exercise or bag gave me this secret. I don't know where it comes from. I wasn't always like this either, it has come from working every day. But really my dream is to be a good boxer one day."
Aside from the upcoming fight with Yarde, Beterbiev acknowledges in each interview that his goal is to be the undisputed champion of the division, which means facing (and defeating) the undefeated Russian Dmitry Bivol (21-0, 11 KOs), who holds the WBA light heavyweight super championship belt.
"I need Bivol," Beterbiev admits. "I'd prefer to fight Bivol because he has the one thing I need. I hope I fight him in 2023 but the hold-up is not from my side, it's from their side. In the last three years he always says he will fight me next but in this time we've done unification fights against Oleksandr Gvozdyk and Joe Smith. We've done that whereas he has just been talking about it.
Beterbiev recalled that he was with Bivol on the Russian national team where they were amateurs. "I knew him then, but he is younger than me. We haven't talked for 10 years now. He was 75kg back then, too small for me. We were never friends."

I want to discuss the idea that faith is voluntary. This is a traditional teaching, at least in the catholic tradition that I know better. Many things can be meant by such a general statement, but one privileged interpretation, offered by Thomas Aquinas, has received a very large welcome, and is given as an expression of the Magisterium in the recent Catechism of the Catholic Church. There, Aquinas is quoted for this quasi-definition of the act of faith : « Believing is an act of the intellect assenting to the divine truth by command of the will moved by God through grace. » (Ipsum autem credere est actus intellectus assentientis veritati divinae ex imperio voluntatis a Deo motae per gratiam) . The voluntariness of faith is then the voluntariness of the act of believing (credere) the divine revelation. Now, though this sentence is not exactly Aquinas's definition, nor his main statement about what faith is, it certainly contains what Aquinas thinks is necessary and sufficient for the existence of faith.

We are specialists in the construction of complex engineered control structures, spill ways, retention ponds, bridges, and all form of drainage works. With a background in private and public engineered projects, we excel in quality and time tested engineering solutions.
Nestled in the foothills west of Bragg Creek is a constructed lake with a 12 meter high dam, spillway/control structure, and emergency spillway. During routine inspections, it was discovered that the 50 year old wooden spillway was failing and causing increased nutrient loading downstream. SCOPE was retained to project manage the design for a new larger concrete replacement and obtain the necessary approvals from Alberta Environment. With the approvals in place SCOPE under took the complicated construction in fall, winter and spring conditions.
Pre-construction tasks involved design of a syphon system to ensure minimum flow, while a dam blocking the flow was put in place. A large spring uncovered in the constructed area was redirected downstream to assist in maintaining flow in Iron Creek. With the concrete work completed, SCOPE was in the process of completing the channeling and armoring in front and downstream, and modifying the emergency spillway, when the region was subjected to a 100 year flood event.
A combination of circumstances resulted in portions of the lower end of the 100 cubic meter concrete structure being under mined by the raging floodwaters. Immediate steps were taken to secure the structure and pressure fill the void with a custom liquid slurry. Lessons from watching the flood were used to make modifications to the emergency spillway, top of the dam, entrance way, stop log level control structure and downstream rip rap. The completed project is operating in accordance with the modifications and has received the necessary engineering and government inspections and approvals.
As part of a subdivision road construction project SCOPE, was asked to conduct the necessary design and permit requirements for the construction of a secondary highway bridge across Bragg Creek. The structure would link a planned second phase of the subdivision. Environmental considerations required a clear span of 14 meters and frozen winter construction conditions.
The final engineering design completed by a structural engineering group involved the placement of seven 16 meter long 5000 pound steel I beams on 4 meter deep concrete lego block abutments. The road surface and railings were constructed with special order dimensional treated wood products. The completed structure met the stringent standards set by the County of RockyView, Alberta Environment and Alberta Lands.
Through a tender process, SCOPE was awarded the construction contract of a 32 hectre site to reclaim an existing class II wetland adjacent to Ralph Klein Park. Working with 02 planning and design we were responsible for the entire construction and maintenance of the site. Upon completion the wetland surpassed all design expectations and was reclassified to Class4/5 category.
A unique construction project that included complex earthworks and shaping, over 300,000m2 of various seed and plug plantings, and an overland control structureto create a usable recharge area for water shed coming off of the existing crop land and future cemetery site.


The main purchasing factor for discount coupons platforms are with no doubt the price. Groupon, Letsbonus, Groupalia and oferplan amongst others, have succeeded by offering great value for money proposals, reaching up to a 70% discount in some cases.
What are the prices in the competition for offers in the same category? When the client is interested in purchasing a service, for example a spa treatment, will choose the most competitive offer in terms of price amongst the different coupons companies. In this case it will be very important to monitor similar offers in the competition in order to determine the right price according to the quality of the service offered.
Exclusivity in suppliers and offers: It is frequent that service suppliers sign exclusive agreements with coupons companies in order to avoid offering the same service in different platforms at the same time. By monitoring our competitors we can be aware if our suppliers are complying with our exclusiveness policy.
As we can see it is essential to use a price monitoring software in industries based in aggressive price policies.
