PennDOT seeks private partner to revitalize Middletown train station
Posted 4:57 PM, September 9, 2016, by Howard Sheppard
HARRISBURG, Pa. – PennDOT announced today it is starting a request for qualifications (RFQ) process to solicit a Public Private Partner to develop parking and retail around a revitalized Middletown train station.
In addition, PennDOT will host an industry forum on September 28 from 10 am to noon at the Sheraton Harrisburg-Hershey Hotel on Lindle Road to outline the P3 concept for the area around the station, which is on the Amtrak Keystone line.
"The Keystone Line offers an attractive travel option for more than one million riders a year and enhancing stations along the route can help attract even more riders," PennDOT Secretary Leslie S. Richards said. "Renewed stations also help build strong surrounding communities and that is the goal of our P3 plans."
PennDOT's vision is that the P3 partner will develop, design, build, finance, operate and maintain parking facilities that provide a minimum of 400 parking spaces in an eight-acre tract near the newly relocated AMTRAK station as well as undertake possible commercial/retail development.
In addition, the partner will construct an Emaus Street extension as well as a pedestrian bridge over Route 230 to the Penn State-Harrisburg campus. The partner will be required to maintain the project site for at least 30 years.
Interested parties have 60 days to respond with a statement of qualifications.
The P3 development will complement the work PennDOT, AMTRAK and Norfolk-Southern are doing to build the new Middletown station. Site preparation under a $2.6 million contract is underway and is expected to be completed in May 2017. Norfolk-Southern is expected to start an estimated $6.5 million in track work later this year. AMTRAK's track work, estimated to cost roughly $4.3 million, will start late next year. Work on the new station and platform, estimated to cost $24.4 million, is expected to start late in 2018.
"Our goal is to build transit ridership at the Middletown station and add an attractive transportation and commercial hub for the community," Richards said. "This is part of our mission to build a better Pennsylvania and mobility for its citizens."

When silverfish (or endermites) move around, they don't make any footstep sounds or subtitles. There are sound events for footsteps (entity.silverfish.step, entity.endermite.step), but the game doesn't use them, nor does it use the default footstep sounds.
All other mobs (including blazes and withers on the ground) make footstep sounds, so this seems inconsistent.
Silverfish and endermites override the method net.minecraft.entity.Entity.canTriggerWalking() to return false. This causes them to not make walking / swimming sounds and does not slow them down on slime blocks or causes magma block damage (see also MC-102267).

TODAY'S COMEX GOLD SIGNAL AND DAILY REPORT
Gold prices held steady near recent highs on Monday, as fears of a potential trade war and political uncertainty in Europe continued to support demand for safe-haven assets. Comex gold futures were little changed at $1,324.1 a troy ounce by 08:25 a.m. ET (12:25 GMT), the highest since February 27.
U.S. shale oil output is set to surge over the next five years stealing market share from OPEC producers and moving the country, once the world's top oil importer, closer to self sufficiency, the International Energy Agency said on Monday. A landmark deal in 2017 between OPEC and other oil producers including Russia to curb output to reduce global oversupply materially improved the outlook for other producers as oil prices rose sharply throughout the year, the IEA said.
Japan's aluminum industry wants the United States to scrap plans to impose tariffs on the metal since it would hurt business and raise volatility in the metal markets, causing increased uncertainty for future trade. U.S. President Donald Trump said last week that he would impose a 25 percent tariff on imported steel and a 10 percent levy on imported aluminum to protect U.S. producers, risking retaliation from major trade partners like China, Europe and neighboring Canada.
The Swiss government has amended its mandate for negotiating a new treaty with European Union authorities to explore having an arbitration panel settle some disputes over single market rules, it said on Monday. Brussels has put pressure on non-EU member Switzerland to sign a treaty that would see it adopt EU laws governing the single market as the price of enhanced access. At present a network of 120 bilateral accords governs economic ties.
U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday appeared to suggest that Canada and Mexico could win exemptions to his planned sweeping tariffs on steel and aluminum if the two countries sign a new NAFTA trade deal and take other steps. He made the comments as the United States, Canada and Mexico were wrapping up their latest round of talks on revamping the 1994 NAFTA deal, and as world shares dipped again, partly on concerns that Trump's tariff plan could spark a global trade war.
Ministers from the United States, Canada and Mexico meet on Monday to wrap up the latest round of NAFTA talks under the shadow of U.S. President Donald Trump's proposed steep tariffs on steel and aluminum imports. Trump is expected to finalize the tariffs – 25 percent on steel and 10 percent on aluminum – later in the week, posing a tough challenge for U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer, Canada's Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland and Mexican Economy Minister Ildefonso Guajardo.

(Not) Startling new news from the World of Science: Men's Brains and Women's Brains function differently under stress.
Using a functional magnetic resonance imaging machine (fMRI), researchers at the University of Pennsylvania have shown that men and women differ in response to stressful situations: Men experience increased blood flow to the left orbitofrontal cortex, suggesting activation of the "fight or flight" response; in women there is increased activation of the limbic system, which is associated with emotional responses.
The researchers studied the brains of 16 men and 16 women and were able to directly visualize – in real time – what the human brain does during stress, according to Jiongiong Wang, Ph.D., a research assistant professor of radiology and neurology at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia.
Moderate stress was induced by asking subjects to count backward by 13, starting at 1.600. researchers monitored the subject's heart rate and blood flow to the brain; they also checked for the stress hormone cortisol. They In men, stress resulted in increased blood flow to the right prefrontal cortex, responsible for the "fight or flight" response, while will had increased blood flow in the limbic system, associated with a more nurturing and friendly response.
The researchers also found that the changes in the brain during stress response also lasted longer in women.
In stressful situations, the adrenal glands produce adrenaline and cortisol, which are released into the blood stream, speaking up heart and breathing rates and increasing blood pressure and metabolism. These are all important (and advantageous) physical changes, allowing us to react quickly and effectively under pressure. However, even low levels of stress can be detrimental if they persist for too long; the nervous system will continue to be slightly activated and pump out extra stress hormones – leaving a person feeling depleted or overwhelmed, and weakening the body's immune system.
"I'm frequently amazed by the unnecessary stressors clients create for themselves," observes Francis J. Flynn, Psy.D., CAP, director of clinical services of the Brain Training Centers of Florida. "Often the single most controllable stressor is their calendar; they set unrealistically close or impossible-to-meet deadlines and, as those deadlines approach, their stress levels go through the roof.
"The world doesn't come to an end when we turn off electronic devices on a plane; it won't end if we turn them off for a couple of hours of personal down-time every day," says Flynn.
At the Brain Training Centers of Florida, Brain Wave Optimization is being utilized everyday to assist men and women to understand the functioning of their brains and to train their brains to handle situations the way they want them to.
This was a win-win. I had nothing to lose and everything to gain; and I did. The integration of a balanced brain allows all of your organs to operate in a balanced way. Your intuition will be unlocked and allowed to flow with a new sense of living.

Drummond's Achiever of the Month
Drummond Golf (Maroochydore) is proud and delighted to sponsor The Invincibles Achiever of the Month Award. Recipients of this Award will receive a $50 Drummond Gift Voucher to be used in their store along with a sleeve of Callaway golf balls courtesy of Callaway Australia. The Invincibles Tour wish to thank Roy & Kim McClean, Terry Young and their team at Drummond Golf Maroochydore and Callaway Australia for their very generous support of Junior Golf on the Sunshine Coast, where this month's winner of the Drummond Golf Achiever Award is...............
Cassie Porter (Peregian Golf Course) for her outstanding performance "achievement" in jointly winning the Toyota World Junior - World Cup in Japan, with scores of 71-70-67-69=277, 11 under par, to be named joint winners and World Champions!
Cassie was also named Drummond's Achiever because of the way she considered others at such an important moment in her life, which was fantastic to witness and be associated with.
Particularly when you consider, Cassie along with Di and Jon (mum & dad) left the Brisbane Airport at approximately 12.30pm after her flight from Japan and made a beeline straight to Pelican Waters to walk the last nine holes with her fellow Invincibles Team-mates, was more than impressive.
And then to take the time (given she must have been exhausted) to stay back and present the awards to those that won their respective divisions in The Invincibles Matchplay Championships was very impressive to witness and talks volumes about the character of a world class competitor and epitomizes what The Invincibles Tour strives to achieve!
Like Bailey Arnott (Caloundra) winner of the Drummond Award for May, our juniors are sending out a strong message to everyone that there is more to our great game than hitting a golf ball around the course!
The Invincibles committee congratulates Cassie on behalf of everyone on Tour for her outstanding achievement and sportsmanship, that most certainly makes her a very worthy winner of our DRUMMOND GOLF ACHIEVER of the MONTH AWARD for June 2019!!!
Other Invincibles members that could consider themselves extremely unlucky not to win the Drummond Award for June were, Justice Bosio (Caboolture) for defending her Katherine – Kirk title and Teeren Hannan (Pelican Waters) for winning the Rod Pampling division of the Pampling – Kirk Junior Classic "Zone and District Open and Closed Championship" hosted by Pelican Waters.
Also, Zoe Maxwell (Virginia) Will Bowen (Royal Queensland) Daniel Cho (Indooroopilly) and Kai Schloss (Wynnum) for winning their respective divisions of The Invincibles Matchplay Championships.
And Tyler Duncan (Redcliffe) for winning their Men's Club Championships on the 37th hole.
The Tour is aware that some of their members could be overlooked for the Drummond Award, so if you believe you know someone that is deserving of this award, please feel free to nominate them via gmmiller@bigpond.com and they will certainly be considered!
For our juniors that are just starting out, it is important to note that there is a history where our juniors strive for excellence and develop the appropriate people skills to take them to the highest level, if they have the passion, dedication and focus that's required!
As we've witnessed from our past members (now seniors) who are doing an incredible job representing The Invincibles Tour, The Sunshine Coast and Australia at the highest level, which we are incredibly proud of, members that include Rhianna Maree - Lewis, Lochie Coleborn, along with Cameron Smith, Shae Wools – Cobb, Charlie Dann, Cassie Porter, Karis Davidson, Jed Morgan, Doug Klein, Chris Crabtree and many others who are all doing a great job representing us on the world stage.
The above Invincibles members epitomise the sportsmanship, camaraderie and etiquette that's associated with The Invincibles Tour and golf in general.
Our 5, 6 or 9-Hole "Drummond Golf Achiever Award" for June, is Sam Wilson (Maroochy River) for not necessarily winning an event, or setting the world on fire, but more for his attitude and friendly demeanour on and off the golf course, win or lose.
Sam like so many of our Invincibles members, creates a great atmosphere on Tour and that's something we should all appreciate, because it helps create a fun, friendly and competitive environment for all juniors and their families to enjoy their golf!
Sam will receive a $25.00 Drummond Golf Voucher along with a sleeve of balls courtesy of Callaway Australia for his fantastic achievement, an achievement that certainly makes him a very worthy winner of our Drummond Achiever of The Month award for June.
As mentioned above; to suggest that The Sunshine Coast and South East Queensland is a breeding ground for our future junior champions, would be stating the obvious, but we think it's fair to say that the best is yet to come, and we would like to invite you to be part of it?
"It is important to note; that to win or qualify for the Drummond Achiever Award or any other Invincibles awards (except The Invincibles Sunshine Coast Junior Masters Championship) one has to be a member of The Invincibles Tour"
The Invincibles season starts on the 1st of January, through to the 31st of December.

The Invincibles Tour, on behalf of their juniors and families would like to take this opportunity to thank Roy and Kim McClean and Terry Young "Drummond Golf Maroochydore" and "Callaway Australia" for their continuing and very generous support of junior golf.
There's no doubt that programs like The Invincibles Sunshine Coast Junior Golfing Tour could ever exist or be the outstanding success it is, without the very generous support from organizations like Drummond Golf Maroochydore and Callaway Australia!

App aims for hassle-free travel experience

The app provides you with the services, mediating between the hotel and you, thus catering to your needs.
To make this entire process a lot easier, a group of young entrepreneurs from VIT Vellore called 'Amvuk', have come up with an app called 'Carson'.
Most of us get tired of following up on our hotel bookings and checking out services at the hotel we're staying at or searching for tourist spots, instead of actually enjoying the trip we are into. To make this entire process a lot easier, a group of young entrepreneurs from VIT Vellore called 'Amvuk', have come up with an app called 'Carson'. Literally serving as a private butler, this app will bring every service at your fingertips.
The in-hotel app makes your 'after-booking' frenzy a lot smoother. From the housekeeping to serene spa sessions this app will keep you updated on every detail relevant to the hotel. The app provides you with the services, mediating between the hotel and you, thus catering to your needs.
"A traveller using hotels frequently don't have to download the app every time. Once Carson is in mainstream at every 4 and 5 star hotels, it will become easier for the guest to communicate with hotel staff. After you check in, the app gets configured according to where you are staying. One can have a hassle-free travel, as you just tap your smartphone rather than making several calls. Carson does it all for you," says Udit Pandoh, founder and CEO of Amvuk.
With chats between various departments, you will be able to extract the top-notch provision of the facilities. But the best thing about this is it comes with a dual profit to not the travellers alone, but is also of great help to the hotel industry.
At a subscription rate of just 30,000 per month, a hotel can avail the App, "Generally, hotels want to have apps to have a proper engagement with their customers. But creating an app and maintaining it with engineers, costs a lot making it affordable only for big chains of hotels. So this app makes it an inclusive forum for smaller hotels as well," says Udit. Due to this convenience, it also helps increase the in-hotel sales.
Carson is a self-maintained and updated app. The user doesn't need to install a new app each time they go to a different hotel; it works anywhere and at any time. This app is being tested and is currently in the marketing stage.
Amvuk has made agreements with five hotels as of now. The app is a one-stop destination for all the irritating follow-ups that one needs to do while travelling; making your trip an enjoyable one.

I subscribed to this in MY early 20's way back in the magazines infancy. Back when the cover photo's were black and white and most of the cover "models" were female athletes. It's changed since then, catering a little more to the "Cosmo" crowd. Which is fine, just not for me. It just doesn't feel like it applies as much to someone in their thirties married with kids as someone in their twenties who apparently has the money and lack of self-control to spend $90 on a designer t-shirt (really).

Women have also been the subject of abuse in health care research, such as the situation revealed in the Cartwright Inquiry in New Zealand (1988), in which research by two feminist journalists[165] revealed that women with cervical abnormalities were not receiving treatment, as part of an experiment. The women were not told of the abnormalities and several later died.[166]
What you eat is even more important as you enter your 40s. Women need protein (meat, fish, dairy, beans, and nuts), carbohydrates (whole grains), fats (healthy oils), vitamins, minerals, and water. These foods have been linked to some disease prevention, such as osteoporosis, high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, and certain cancers. The American Academy of Family Physicians supports the development of healthy food supply chains in supplemental nutrition programs so as to broaden the availability of healthy food.

Although growing bodies need plenty of energy in the form of calories, many children and teenagers consume way too many, says Ruth Frechman, RD, a spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association. The latest findings from federal surveys show that 18% of adolescents and teenagers are fatter than they should be. Kids who are obese are 16 times more likely than healthy weight children to become obese as adults, other findings show.
Poor nutrition may be one of the easiest conditions to self-diagnose. Look at the food pyramid and the suggested servings. Look at your diet. Are you getting the recommended daily amounts of fruits and vegetables? Enough calcium? Read the labels and compare what you eat to what you need. You may discover that even if your weight is ideal, you are not getting enough nutrition.
I joined WFOB two years ago after my gym closed down without any notice. I wasn't used to working out at an all woman's gym but I have to tell you this place is great. I look forward to going everyday. It's a no judgment zone. Everyone is there for the same reason. The woman all work hard and are very supportive of one another. The classes are diverse enough to find something you can do. And if you can't there are free weights and machines to do your own thing. Julie is always switching things up to make it interesting. She always has new ideas and is a very wise business person.
Granted, WFOB got me started working out on a regular basis but it wasn't very effective. I was kinda happy there until I started to try another gym (TFW Boston, also local gym in downtown crossing). TFW is definitely pricier than WFOB, for a good reason. There, not only I saw results quickly (toned and stronger), but also my mindsets about fitness has changed (why hour long cardio is bad for you, how to have a sustainable diet plan, etc.) The coaches cared about who you are, what your goals are, pushing you to your limits but not over.
Women who are socially marginalized are more likely to die at younger ages than women who are not.[21] Women who have substance abuse disorders, who are homeless, who are sex workers, and/or who are imprisoned have significantly shorter lives than other women.[21] At any given age, women in these overlapping, stigmatized groups are approximately 10 to 13 times more likely to die than typical women of the same age.[21]
Focus on the long term. Diets fail when people fall back into poor eating habits; maintaining weight loss over the long term is exceedingly difficult. Most people regain the weight they've lost. In fact, some studies indicate that 90 to 95 percent of all dieters regain some or all of the weight originally lost within five years. Your program should include plans for ongoing weight maintenance, involving diet, exercise and a behavioral component. While there are some physical reasons for obesity, there are also behavioral reasons for excessive eating. For example, many women use food as a source of comfort (perhaps to deal with stress). For these women, a weight loss program with a behavioral component will offer alternatives to replace food in this role.
Violence was declared a global health priority by the WHO at its assembly in 1996, drawing on both the United Nations Declaration on the elimination of violence against women (1993)[134] and the recommendations of both the International Conference on Population and Development (Cairo, 1994) and the Fourth World Conference on Women (Beijing, 1995)[140] This was followed by its 2002 World Report on Violence and Health, which focusses on intimate partner and sexual violence.[141] Meanwhile, the UN embedded these in an action plan when its General Assembly passed the Millennium Declaration in September 2000, which resolved inter alia "to combat all forms of violence against women and to implement the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women".[142] One of the Millennium Goals (MDG 3) was the promotion of gender equality and the empowerment of women,[143] which sought to eliminate all forms of violence against women as well as implementing CEDAW.[101] This recognised that eliminating violence, including discrimination was a prerequisite to achieving all other goals of improving women's health. However it was later criticised for not including violence as an explicit target, the "missing target".[144][85] In the evaluation of MDG 3, violence remained a major barrier to achieving the goals.[31][37] In the successor Sustainable Development Goals, which also explicitly list the related issues of discrimination, child marriage and genital cutting, one target is listed as "Eliminate all forms of violence against all women and girls in the public and private spheres" by 2030.[109][145][138]
While the rates of the leading causes of death, cardiovascular disease, cancer and lung disease, are similar in women and men, women have different experiences. Lung cancer has overtaken all other types of cancer as the leading cause of cancer death in women, followed by breast cancer, colorectal, ovarian, uterine and cervical cancers. While smoking is the major cause of lung cancer, amongst nonsmoking women the risk of developing cancer is three times greater than amongst nonsmoking men. Despite this, breast cancer remains the commonest cancer in women in developed countries, and is one of the more important chronic diseases of women, while cervical cancer remains one of the commonest cancers in developing countries, associated with human papilloma virus (HPV), an important sexually transmitted disease. HPV vaccine together with screening offers the promise of controlling these diseases. Other important health issues for women include cardiovascular disease, depression, dementia, osteoporosis and anemia. A major impediment to advancing women's health has been their underrepresentation in research studies, an inequity being addressed in the United States and other western nations by the establishment of centers of excellence in women's health research and large scale clinical trials such as the Women's Health Initiative.
Nutrition is particularly important during pregnancy to ensure your health and the health of the baby. It's normal to gain weight during pregnancy—not just because of the growing fetus, but because you'll need stored fat for breast-feeding. The Institute of Medicine (IOM) recommends a gain of 25 to 35 pounds in women of normal weight when they get pregnant; 28 to 40 pounds in underweight women; and at least 15 pounds in women who are overweight when they get pregnant. The IOM has not given a recommendation for an upper limit for obese women, but some experts cap it as low as 13 pounds. If you fit into this category, discuss how much weight you should gain with your health care professional.
While what works best for one woman may not always be the best choice for another, the important thing is to build your dietary choices around your vital nutritional needs. Whether you're looking to improve your energy and mood, combat stress or PMS, boost fertility, enjoy a healthy pregnancy, or ease the symptoms of menopause, these nutrition tips can help you to stay healthy and vibrant throughout your ever-changing life.
Most vegetarians eat milk products and eggs, and as a group, these lacto-ovo-vegetarians enjoy good health. A healthful vegetarian diet falls within the food pyramid guidelines offered by the USDA. However, meat, fish and poultry are major sources of iron, zinc and B vitamins, so pay special attention to these nutrients. Vegans (those who eat only plant-based food) should consult a health care professional about adding vitamin and mineral supplements; make sure you consume sufficient quantities of protein, vitamin B12, vitamin D and calcium.

Charles S. from Blacksburg, VA, USA for submitting photos of installed OEM Seat Covers.
"These are so close to OEM that I had to tell my wife I had installed them after she had ridden on them 3 times! The purchase was great, had a couple of questions that the staff helped me with, the install was easy and only took about 45 minutes. The bonus is the weave is tighter on these so the dog hairs don't stick nearly as much making cleaning much easier. I love them, well worth the price!"

Homepage layouts from startups to agencies have adopted the common technique of feature descriptions. These are often little boxes or sections on the page which go into detail about a company's services or product. But as most people know, block of text can be rather monotonous.
Thus designers have started to incorporate icons beside each major feature. This way visitors can catch a glimpse of the feature and put together its purpose without reading all of the content. Feature icons have become a prominent piece to website design, and this post will take a look at how you can squeeze these icons into your own layout.
Both design and placement of feature icons can dramatically affect a website's overall composition. Many icon styles of this nature tend to go with a matching pattern to make the iconset feel more "natural".
The goal with consistency should be to create icons that both match and perfectly illustrate the point being drawn. Try using similar design features with your icons or find a free iconset online. The whole page will look so much better if you can use icons designed in a similar pattern.
Knowlla has a bright homepage full of various icon styles. A consistent design type is used to describe various bits of content ranging from services to various user statistics.
The actual features area uses icons which are wrapped inside a circle. Each circle is colored in a different hue but matches the same level of saturation. In this way the features panel appears like one cohesive unit and should draw much more attention from the average visitor.
Another great example can be found on 15Five. Instead of circular-shaped icon containers these are shaped like squares. Each icon uses the same shade of aqua for the background and they all have drop shadow effects. These may be called flat squares or even flat shadow icons – but regardless of their moniker these icons are consistent and beautiful.
Another point to mention is that icon usage shouldn't just be random. You shouldn't just grab icons that look cool or designs that seem to blend with the website's color scheme.
Each icon should do it's job to explain the content. Visual context can be powerful when used correctly. Apply a relevant icon beside each section of content which can be improved by the graphic. This way users can get a taste of what the text is about without reading.
Take for example the homepage of Boxana. Their site uses rectangular blocks of content with small thin icons above the feature text. Not all of the icons are perfect but many of them directly relate to the content being displayed(ie: a chart icon for analytics features).
Even just a semi-related icon is better than an unprepared desultory iconset thrown together at the last minute. Take some time to plan out the webpage copy so you can put together icons that truly match.
I really like the icons on ZenPayroll because they don't even use large multi-sentence descriptions. Their icons are used to display businesses who actually use the product. But instead of just listing professions they've organized small icons that relate to each one.
Even brief descriptions can be spruced up with a little bit of icon amity. Take this advice with you on every project and try to seek out a purpose for each icon placed into a webpage.
Perhaps the most useful reason to include icons with feature text is for direct explanations. These could be mini-tutorials or just brief overviews of how a product works.
Icons are like visual elements for conveying information along with text. The two mediums work hand-in-hand to provide visitors with a clear explanation of what the website actually does. Your job as a designer is to figure out which topics need to be clarified and how to do so.
The homepage for LeadGenius has a number of different icons. The top icons serve to elucidate the different product features. But underneath is a small flowchart using icons to explain the process of how LeadGenius works.
Step-by-step explanations are great for new visitors. These give a clear overview from start to finish outlining how a typical user might benefit from the product. The choice of a simple design is also a factor because the icons are so much easier to comprehend.
Sqwiggle has a beautiful homepage for their collaboration software both from a UX and aesthetic perspective. But what I truly love is their use of simple icon styles to delve deeper into features of the product.
As you scroll down the page you'll notice a few sections detailing how to use Sqwiggle. The icons in each section are fairly large and certainly meant to draw attention. Although ostentation is not always a reliable design technique, I feel it works well in this case. Sqwiggle definitely wants to draw attention to these icons because they add to the existing content rather than detract from it.
The use of color is an important design choice for all areas both digital and print work. In icon design the use of color is exceptionally important because it will draw a certain crowd of attention.
There's a very wide margin between hyper-realistic icons and thin line icons. Varying shades of color quality, depth, and light/shadow can be applied to icons to create a more realistic look or a more vectorized cartoony look. There is no right or wrong answer because each website has their own needs.
The icon set found on Home Light is simple but very effective. The colors match on a monochrome scale of blue ranging along many different hues and levels of saturation. The icons draw attention but don't jump off the page. They're noticeable but not extravagant.
On the other hand take a peek at Upcomer's homepage. Their icons are still somewhat "flat" but the use of color is more pronounced. These icons are supposed to look more realistic with varying shades of color matching similar objects in real life.
There is no doubt that the icons found on Upcomer's website stand out against other similar examples. The design style is flawless and blends naturally into the layout.
When crafting your own icons be sure to think about how much color would be needed. The choice is going to be different for each project but it will have a lasting effect on the layout.
Icon style is something which takes years of practice to develop. Professional icon designers typically have the skills to craft icons in any style they choose. This comes from hard work and years of training to learn methods for creating great styles from scratch.
Icon styles are comparable to traditional art. Some like to draw realism from life while others prefer to exaggerate with cartoony ideas. Levels of detail, shading, and depth all vary and have a direct effect on style.
Style is also something that you recognize right away whether it's obvious or not. If a set of icons don't match it'll be glaringly obvious. But you'll be just as aware when finding a set of icons that do match – it's just more subtle. You may not be able to explain a style in words but visually the cues are all there.
If you want to improve your icon design skills the only real solution is practice. You'll need to learn how to create icons in various styles which extend far beyond the simplistic trendy modern line icons. Although icon design is a lot of work, the payoff is well worth the effort offering much more control over your creative process.
I truly hope these examples and suggestions can help designers craft more straightforward feature displays in homepage layouts. Icons are the perfect extra tidbit for improving a page layout. Granted icon design is a tough profession and if you lack the skills yourself it may be quicker to look for free alternatives. But there's no doubt that feature icons can radically improve a website by offering visual clarity and drawing attention from visitors.

Miscommunication can cause a great risk to your project. Make sure that the developers you hire understand your exact requirements. Stay in touch with the developers throughout the development phase to exchange ideas.
When you are dealing with an offshore company, you would need to keep in mind their working hours and you may have to communicate with them at that time only. You should ask the developers about their working hours and plan the things accordingly.

Terry Allen Jones, Jr., 48, resident of Abercrombie Pointe, husband of Heather Simmons Jones, died Sunday, July 23, 2017 at Hospice House after winning a courageous 18 month battle against pancreatic cancer.

From bull riding to shagging, Terry always got every second out of life. Terry loved out loud and got it right. Because our love for Terry was so big, our loss is so great, but knowing God loved him the most brings us comfort.
Terry demonstrated a life of richness, courage, faithfulness to his Creator, adoration of his family and through his journey strengthened others' faith and relationships. Terry never once complained during his battle and met each new day with gratitude.
Surviving in addition to his wife of the home, his father of Palm Beach Gardens, Florida and mother of Round O, is his son, Terry Allen "Trace" Jones, III of the home; a brother, William Thomas (Beth) Jones of Gaffney; a sister, Alexandra Corie Jones; step-mother, Deb Michaels Jones, both of Palm Beach Gardens, Florida; uncle, Joe Barry of Round O; two aunts, Kathy (Paul) Martin of Round O, and Cindy (Bill) Berl of New Smyrna Beach, Florida; a nephew, Reid Jones along with a number of cousins.

SPH To Cut 5% Of Media Division Jobs As Part Of S$8M Restructuring, About 130 Staff Affected
Zafirah Salim
Singapore Press Holdings (SPH) reported yesterday a 23.4 per cent decline in net profit for financial year 2019.
In line with this finding, SPH announced that it will be laying off 5% of its staff in the media group to restructure and streamline its operations.
About 130 employees from the group's media solutions division, magazines and smaller subsidiaries will be affected by this move, of which 71 employees will be retrenched.
No newsroom staff members will be affected by the cut.
The staff redundancies are expected to be complete by end November at a retrenchment cost of about $8 million.
SPH Restructures Its Business
It is restructuring its media and magazine operations to enable integrated selling across all platforms — print, digital, radio and outdoors.
"Readers will benefit from the greater sharing of content resources within SPH across platforms and titles. For example, Hardware Zone's tech expertise will help beef up the tech columns of news titles such as The Straits Times and The Business Times," said the company.
"Some of the content can also be ported over to radio and even SPH's out-of-home screens in lifts and commercial areas. This has been happening for a while, and SPH will intensify efforts to make content liquid across audience-centric platforms. This ultimately will drive subscriber and advertising revenue."
This new consolidated approach basically allows a marketer who wants to reach a mass audience to dive deeper into a niche like fashion or technology via one of SPH's magazine properties.
It could also help advertisers initially drawn in by a special interest audience to spread their message to the wider network of SPH consumers.
"The restructuring will enable us to deliver more effective integrated solutions across various media platforms to meet the evolving demands of our advertising customers as well as audiences," said SPH chief executive officer Ng Yat Chung.
"We continue to invest in the newsrooms and digital media capabilities while remaining disciplined about costs. This restructuring exercise is necessary to enhance our operational efficiency and strengthen our position in this challenging economic and media environment."
Support For Affected Staff
SPH is currently working with the Creative Media and Publishing Union (CMPU) on the compensation packages and job support they will be providing to affected staff.
CMPU will partner NTUC's e2i (Employment and Employability Institute) to have e2i's employability coaches at the company's premises to provide advice and assistance to the affected staff.
The union will also arrange for affected employees to access the NTUC-Korn Ferry Advance service, which will provide them with job-profiling and other employment-related tools.
To help the affected employees find new skills for new jobs, the management has agreed to provide a training grant for each of the affected employees so that they can use it for skill-upgrading.
Union members can also tap the Union Training Assistance Programme fund for their training.
SPH said it has informed the Ministry of Manpower and National Trades Union Congress (NTUC) on its retrenchment exercise, and that employees who are laid off will receive compensation based on terms negotiated and agreed with the staff union.

Eind vorige week heeft NTT DoCoMo middels een persbericht bekend gemaakt dat het de eerste succesvolle tests heeft afgerond.
Het is de Japanse techneuten gelukt om, al rijdend, een mobiele downloadsnelheid van 2.5Gbit/s te halen, twee-en-een-half keer sneller dan DoCoMo's vorige 4G tests in mei van het afgelopen jaar.
This time, by increasing the number of MIMO*1 transmission antennas from four to six and by using 64-QAM*2, data volume per transmission was increased from four bits to six bits. As a result, DoCoMo achieved a maximum speed of 2.5Gbps, which is faster than the International Telecommunication Union Radiocommunication Sector (ITU-R)'s proposed standard.
Frequency spectrum efficiency*3, which is expressed as information bits per second per Hertz, was also increased from 10 bits per second per Hertz during the last experiment to 25 bits. This figure is the maximum frequency spectrum efficiency for 4G as defined by WINNER*4.
Notes *1 MIMO: Multiple-Input Multiple-Output. Data transmission scheme to increase the achievable data rate, in which different data streams are spatially multiplexed using multiple transmitter and receiver antennas on the same frequency.
*2 QAM: Quadrature Amplitude Modulation. Modulation scheme which conveys data by changing the amplitude and phase. For example, 64QAM transmits one of 64 signal points and conveys six bits per one symbol.
*3 Spectral efficiency: Defined by the ratio between the transmission data rate and the channel bandwidth. The spectral efficiency of this experiment is 2.5Gbps/100MHz=25bps/Hz.
*4 WINNER: Wireless world INitiative NEw Radio. WINNER is a EU research project started in January 2004. This project aims to develop a ubiquitous radio system concept based on global requirements for mobile communication systems beyond 3G.

The 5-2 victory in the second match against the BARRACUDAS lifted them into the finals. A 15-2 rout in game three completed the sweep. ROUEN and SAVIGNY finish the playoffs with 7-2 records. MONTPELLIER, which was tied with both teams before the weekend, fell to 4-5 in the end. SENART stayed winless in nine games.

Thomson Reuters Cuts 3,000 Jobs
TEHRAN (Tasnim) - Thomson Reuters Corp said that new sales of its financial terminals outpaced cancellations in the third quarter for the first time since 2011, and it announced 3,000 job cuts to reduce costs.
The global news and information company's stock rose more than 2 percent to hit a two-year high on optimism that the positive turn in net sales will translate into stronger revenue growth next year, since terminal subscriptions are signed on an annual basis. Thomson Reuters also announced a $1 billion share buyback program, Reuters reported.
"Clearly what we are seeing is progress on the turnaround efforts at Thomson Reuters," said Piper Jaffray analyst Peter Appert. "Getting back to positive net sales was significant."
Still, revenue rose just 2 percent in the third quarter, underscoring a tough business climate as banks and law firms cut jobs and curb spending.
Appert acknowledged that the company still faced challenges. "It's not out of the woods, but it's definitely moving in the right direction," he said.
Thomson Reuters has lost market share to Bloomberg LP since the financial crisis, mainly due to weakness in its business catering to financial institutions, which accounts for more than half of revenue. It has undergone a series of structural changes during this time.
The company announced a $350 million charge to accelerate a cost-saving plan and eliminate about 3,000 positions, mainly in its Financial & Risk division. Including other jobs that were cut earlier this year, Thomson Reuters' workforce of 60,000 will be reduced about 9 percent.

Now the kids are back at school it's time to think about what to put in their lunch boxes. The list of banned items can be very long these days. Crisps, biscuits or chocolate are usually top of the forbidden list. There's also the problem of making sure everyone gets their 5 a day quota of fruit and vegetables. Whether you're packing up a school lunch box or throwing some bits in your bag to munch on throughout the day keeping fruit and vegetables fresh and in good condition is tricky. This is where the Nothing But. range of snacks come in.
Nothing But. produce a range of fruit and vegetable snacks but in order to preserve the slices they are freeze dried. This means nothing is added to the snacks giving rise to the name Nothing But. I've tried the Sliced Beetroot and Parsnip variety and Mange Tout and Red Pepper Snack before but the fruit varieties were new to me.
One thing you have to realise with the Nothing But. snacks is that because they are freeze dried and no other flavourings are added the flavour of the snacks is very strong. If you don't like the fruit and vegetables in their fresh, whole form you are not going to like them as these snacks. I think the fruit versions work particularly well as they are more familiar as flavours you are used to. Both the Apple and Fig Snack and the Pineapple and Grape Snack are naturally sweet. The apple does look a bit like a prawn cracker but it is far from it! Some people many find the texture of the freeze dried fruit and vegetables slightly odd at first but it is something you get used to.
What is pictured in the bowls above is the entire contents of each of the packets. It doesn't look much but because the flavours are strong it does seem to make up for it as it allows you pick slowly at the slices.
Now for the technical details – With no added fat, salt, sugar, colour or preservatives they are all suitable for vegetarians and vegans and naturally gluten free. Of the varieties I tried none of them were more than 45 calories per pack. If you're interested in trying some yourselves Nothing But. is available through online stockists and a number of independent health food stores.
I was sent a selection of Nothing But. snacks for review purposes. The words, photographs and opinions are my own.

China's central bank launches spot checks on bitcoin exchanges
By By John Ruwitch and Winni Zhou Reuters
China's central bank said on Wednesday it launched spot checks on major bitcoin exchanges in Beijing and Shanghai, knocking the price of the cryptocurrency down by more than 6 percent.
The probe of bitcoin exchanges, including BTCC, Huobi and OKCoin, was to look into a range of possible rule violations, including market manipulation, money laundering and unauthorized financing, the People's Bank of China (PBOC) said. It did not say if any violations had been found.
On the Europe-based Bitstamp exchange, the bitcoin price fell as much as 7 percent. By 1030 GMT (5:30 a.m. ET), it traded down around 4 percent. On Huobi's website, the price quoted in yuan slid nearly 10 percent before pulling back to trade about 6 percent lower. =cfxs> =btsp>
Chinese authorities have been ratcheting up efforts to stop capital outflows and relieve pressure on the yuan to depreciate. The currency lost more than 6.5 percent against the U.S. dollar last year.
With bitcoin's soaring price and the relative anonymity it affords, some believe the digital currency has become an attractive option for tech-savvy Chinese to hedge against the yuan and circumvent rules that limit the amount of foreign exchange individuals can buy each year.
The Shanghai arm of the PBOC said it visited BTCC on Wednesday.
"The checks focused on whether the firm was operating out of its business scope, whether it was launching unauthorized financing, payment, forex business or other related businesses, whether it was involved in market manipulation, anti-money laundering or (carried) fund security risks," it said.
In a separate statement, the PBOC in Beijing, where officers visited the offices of OKCoin and Huobi, said "the spot checks were focused on how the exchanges implement policies including forex management and anti-money laundering".
Shanghai-based BTCC's CEO Bobby Lee confirmed the visit, but said he believed the company was not out of line.
"We're definitely vigilant. We think we are in compliance with all the current rules and regulations of running a bitcoin exchange in China," he told Reuters by phone.
"I wouldn't call it an investigation. I think they are working closely with us to learn more about our business model and the bitcoin exchange industry. We had a very fruitful meeting today," Lee said.
A Huobi executive who declined to be named confirmed the PBOC visited their office on Wednesday, but declined to provide details. A spokeswoman for OKCoin told Reuters its platform was operating normally, and it was working with the authorities.
Last week, PBOC officials meet with the three exchanges, and the central bank publicly urged investors to take a rational and cautious approach to investing in bitcoin.

Q: How to reduce congruence power modulo prime? If I have a congruence equation, says
$$x^{15} - x^{10} + 4x - 3 \equiv 0 \pmod{7}$$
Then can I use Fermat's little theorem like this:
$$(x^{6})^2 \cdot x^3 - x^6 \cdot x^4 + 4x - 3 \equiv 0 \pmod{7}$$
$$ x^3 - x^4 + 4x - 3 \equiv 0 \pmod{7}$$
Update
Should it be
$$x^{14}x - x^7x^3 - 4x - 3 \equiv 0 \pmod{7}$$
$$x^2x - x.x^3 - 4x - 3 \equiv 0 \pmod{7}$$
$$x^3 - x^4 - 4x - 3 \equiv 0 \pmod{7}$$
?
Thanks,

A: Not quite. Look for example at the congruence $x^6 \equiv 0 \pmod{7}$.  If one assumes that $x^6 \equiv 1$, things go bad.  In this case it is easy to spot that there is a problem, but perhaps in a more complicated setting one might miss it.
I would advise using the fact that $x^7 \equiv x \pmod{7}$, basically a variant of Fermat's Theorem that holds always, not just almost always.

A: Yes, if you're looking for solutions of the equation mod $7$ then, since $\rm\:x=0\:$ is not a solution, you can in fact deduce that $\rm\:x^6 = 1\:$. If you couldn't exclude $\rm\:x=0\:$ then you'd instead need $\rm\:x^7 = x\:.$
