An iPhone application called iTether that would let iPhone users run their Mac or PC over the phone's data connection without paying their carrier extra fees appeared in Apple's App Store last night, to the surprise of many familiar with Apple's review process. The app lasted just under 12 hours before being removed by Apple (NSDQ: AAPL) Tuesday morning, but briefly became the top-grossing app in the App Store.
Tethering can be a life-saver when you're stuck at a location without Wi-Fi or hardwired Internet access and need to do something that requires a keyboard and processing power. But carriers don't like the idea of their customers running data-thirsty PC apps over wireless networks, and many charge a significant monthly premium in order to allow people to use their phones as wireless modems.
iTether appeared to be a way around that restriction. For a one-time $15 fee, Tether (the company behind the app) promised to "help iPhone users find a simple, affordable and effective way to use their laptops while traveling," said Tim Burke, the company's CEO, in a blog post announcing the release of the application.
Patrick Hankinson, the company's chief marketing officer, bragged on his Twitter feed that iTether quickly became the top-grossing app during the short amount of time it was live on the App Store, besting such iPhone juggernauts as Zynga and Rovio. And Tether's servers sagged under the weight of those curious about the app. But a little after 9 a.m. Pacific Time (NYSE: TWX), it all came to a halt.
The app is no longer available in the App Store, to the surprise of very few. Apple is famously circumspect about the types of applications it will allow into the App Store, unlike other mobile application stores that don't have such a strict review process. (Tether makes an Android and BlackBerry version of its app.) And it would seem that the approval of the app, much the same way a games-subscription app was made available and then pulled in quick fashion last week.
Tether thought it was playing by the rules. "We were very clear with Apple what our app did. They asked us a bunch of questions and then approved us," the company said on its official Twitter feed in response to a question from a potential user. Certain carriers around the world may not be as restrictive when it comes to tethering as AT&T (NYSE: T) and Verizon are in the U.S., but it's hard to imagine that an App Store reviewer would be unaware of the app's potential to anger those key partners.
In any event, those who managed to download Tether before it was pulled from the store found a cheap way to use their PC or Mac anywhere, so long as they also have their iPhone. So long as they don't start downloading pirated HD movies over their carrier's network (or other bandwidth-intensive files), their carriers may never know that their iPhones are skirting the rules.


"Quality of Life" Insurance – combinations of life insurance, living benefits, and interest-crediting options.
AIG delivered solid scores in this year's Best Life Insurance Companies survey with an overall score of 85.22. AIG's highest ranking was second for ease of website and apps, which earned it a score of 86. Eighty percent of the surveyed policyholders said they would recommend AIG for life insurance.
AIG's roots began in 1919 when an American named Cornelius Vander Starr created an insurance agency in Shanghai, China. Nelle Vander Starr became the first female executive after joining the operations in Shanghai. The company opened its first U.S. office in 1926, and continued to grow its American operations. C.V. Starr and his company were actively committed to taking care of military families during WWII, helping to relay Red Cross correspondence and opening new offices abroad to provide for U.S. military.
AIG provides life insurance through its company, American General, which it acquired in 2001.
American General Insurance Company was launched on May 8, 1926 in Houston, Texas and was one of the first multi-line insurance companies in the nation. In 1945, American General completed the first of its own strategic acquisitions, Seaboard Life Insurance Company, making American General the only company in the southern United States to underwrite fire, life, automobile and casualty insurance.
The ability to keep pace with the rapid changes of today's world is a point of pride for the insurer. Today, AIG is one of the first insurers to receive FAA approval to use drones to conduct inspections for risk assessment – also pioneering unmanned aircraft insurance.
AIG offers four versions of a unique product called "Quality of Life" Insurance. The goal of these arrangements is to provide more flexibility and access accumulated benefits or interest – dubbed "living benefits." These benefits can help with chronic, critical and even terminal illnesses or conditions. Individuals or families that might benefit from the flexibility of these accounts might consider AIG.

CCMC Recommends 15-Day School Closure
CCMC recommends 15-day school closure.
Image by OpenClipart-Vectors from Pixabay
In the face of the mounting omicron danger, a new strain of the coronavirus in Nepal, schools across the country have been advised to provide a mandatory 15-day winter holiday.
The resolution was recommended to the Cabinet for approval and implementation at a meeting of the COVID-19 Crisis Management Coordination Centre (CCMC) held on Sunday.
Schools of all types and grades have been advised to provide a minimum 15-day winter holiday beginning January 15, according to the proposal, said Sunita Nepal, joint secretary and spokesman for the CCMC.
The CCMC has also advised guardians and students aged 12 to 17 years, as well as those above the age of 18, to acquire COVID vaccinations during the vacation time.
The Ministry of Health and Population, as well as the District Immunization Coordination Committees, have been advised to gather the necessary vaccines and launch a campaign to distribute them.
Similarly, the CCMC has suggested that the general public be required to carry a vaccination card or provide proof of completion of the COVID-19 immunizations when visiting government offices.
Similarly, showing the immunization card is required while entering offices, hotels, restaurants, movie theaters, stadiums, and parks, among other places.
When visiting restricted regions and public locations, residents can produce proof of complete immunization using their cell phone or any other online system, according to Nepal's spokeswoman.
Similarly, the DCCMC and the Ministry of Health should work together to make the antigen test more efficient at Nepal's entrance ports and to place persons who test positive for the virus in isolation as soon as possible, according to the CCMC.
The CCMC has also advised the government to limit public gatherings, mass functions, and political party meetings with more than 25 guests until further notice.
Furthermore, the CCMC has advised the government to begin the process of procuring the necessary vaccines and medications in a quick and simple manner.
Similarly, the CCMC conference proposed that the government conduct regular and pre-scheduled yearly and semester examinations at various institutions and colleges in Z-shape seat planning and enforce public health guidelines.
Every exam center should be required to wear masks and use hand sanitizers, according to the report.
CCMCC Recommends Closing Schools Till Jan 29

Q: How export a network and the attributes in graphml with networkx?
*

*Hi I'm quite new with networks and I've been trying to programme a code that gets all the .edges and .nodes files of a folder and generate a graphml file so I can visualize it in another software. But I also need to add some colours in my nodes but when I tried it I got: KeyError 29

*I was running a loop through my array of nodes to add the color of each node.

*Here's the part of the code where I try to add the color attribute. So the nodes will be coloured with 4 different colors: the best fitness, the worse, top 10% best fitness and 10% worse.
for i in range(len(nodes)):
   if nodes[i]==top:
   NetGraph.node[i]['color']='r'

*Hope you can help me! Cheers

A: If you are trying to "merge" relationship data that are stored in a number of different .nodes' and.edges' files into one graph, then it is possible that as the files are read from the disk you come across a node that has not yet been added to the graph.
In general, I feel that more information is required to provide a more meaningful answer to this question. For example: what is the format of the .node and .edge files? What is in the top variable? (Is that a list or a single number variable representing a threshold?).
However, based on what is mentioned so far in this question, here are a few pointers:

*

*Try to build the graph first and colour it later. This might appear inneficient if you already have the fitness data but it will be the easiest way to get you to a working piece of code.

*Make sure that your node IDs are indeed integer numbers. That is, each node, is known in the graph, by its index value. For example 2,3,5, etc instead of "Paris", "London", "Berlin", etc (i.e. string node IDs). If it is the latter, then the for would be better formed as: for aNode in G.nodes(data = True):. This will return an iterator with each node's ID and a dictionary with all of the existing node's data.

*If top is a single variable, then it doesn't make sense to compare the node's ID with the top threshold. It would be like saying if 22 (which is a node ID) is equal to 89 (which is some expression of efficiency) then apply the red colour to the node. If top is a list that contains all the nodes that are considered top nodes, then the condition expression should have been: if nodes[i] in top:.

*You seem to have skipped an indentation below the if (?). For the statement that assigns the colour to the node provided that the condition is True, to work, it needs to be indented one more set of 4 spaces to the right.

*The expression to assign the colour is correct.

*Please note that Networkx will make an attempt to write every node and edge attribute it comes across in a Graph to the appropriate format. For more information on this, please see the response to this question. Therefore, once you are satisfied with the structure of a given graph (G), then you can simply call networkx.write_graphml(G, 'mygraph.gml') to save it to the disk (where networkx is the name of the module). The networkx.write_* functions will export a complete version of your graph (G) to a number of different formats or raise an exception if a data type cannot be serialised properly.
I hope this helps. Happy to ammend the response if more details are provided later on.

Floors…. It's what we do!


During the final weeks before graduation day from PMSIA (Philadelphia Museum School of Industrial Art) now the University of the Arts in 1948, Wilbert Wilkins, Ben Siegel and I found our dream come true "studio home "at Sixteenth and Sansom streets.
The studio was hidden on the top floor of a row of business buildings anchored by a luggage shop on the street floor. Our private entrance to the building was next to the shop with a stairway leading up to each floor landing. Of course, since we wanted to be on top of our world, this palatial studio was a real find and being in our youth we didn't mind the climb to the fourth floor. We surveyed the suite consisting of four rooms and a lavatory facility. Additionally, the four walls surrounding the stairwell would provide us with gallery space where we could display our paintings. It was wonderful. Suddenly, for some unknown reason, Ben Siegel, who initiated the search for a studio, suddenly withdrew from the partnership. However, after some quick calculating, Wilbert and I decided to go ahead with the studio but at a greater expense to us, via a two way split instead of three for rental costs and expenses, but then we were used living on a shoe string within the monthly stipend we received from Uncle Sam's GI Bill benefits for veterans. Good old Uncle Sam.
After several weeks of cleaning, sweeping, sweating and applying five gallons of battleship grey paint to all the walls, we were ready to occupy our center city studio and begin producing such art works as had not yet been seen, by the hoi polloi of our fair city.
Well, during the next two years of Bohemian living and painting like starving artists (and that is the truth), we followed the same routine, except for Sundays, when I would return to my family home in New Jersey for a decent meal. Six days a week, however, we would paint and sketch, have breakfast at Needik's Orange Drinks store, which for our convenience was located right across the street from our studio and have a hot dog or a donut plus an orange drink (with two glasses, one for each of us), then for lunch, we feasted at Horn & Hardart's Automat, consisting of one order of three or four (5 cent each) vegetables ( for each of us, if we could afford it) and finally for supper back to Needik's, for a hot dog, which we shared along with a cup of coffee. It is amazing how little food was necessary to keep the body functioning, but then, as they say, great art can be generated from an empty stomach, if you live long enough.
As days and weeks passed we had visitors, friends and would-be friends and other artists who dropped in on us to chat and commiserate on the hardships of life. One day a friend of a friend visited us with a young woman to see our work. The young woman was attractive and interested in art and artists and as we continue talking she accepted our invitation to pose for us, at least long enough that we completed several paintings including the one shown in this blog.
Then, some 40 years later, I was married and widowed; my two daughters were also married and had their own families. My older daughter, Jean, reminded me of the girl in the painting, so I gave it to her and it now hangs in her home in Levittown and time marches on . . .

On trips to Osogbo, we always buy Wara from the same ladies. It is a type of milk curd sold fresh and is delicious cooked either boiled or fried with lemon, and quite healthy, it turns out. Click here for more info and recipes. The ladies are familiar to us and come over to our car if they see us around town, as we will usually buy from them. This time around I asked for photos with a view to using them later. The girls were happy to pose with and without their bowls balanced on their heads. For this first painting I've used the light to describe the girl's features, complete with tribal scars, as she poses in the shade. I covered the canvas in dark washes using a very limited palette and painted thinly throughout, doing just enough to describe what I was interested in and no more.
Alan, this is incredible, you have captured her beautifully. I especially like the dark palette it makes the portrait even more striking.


Its reach may exceed its grasp, but with Berberian Sound Studio, director Peter Strickland assembles a suitably twisted, creepy tribute to the Italian Giallo horror movies of the '70s that benefits from a strong central performance by Toby Jones.
While it's a loving homage to movies like Dario Argento's Suspiria and is crafted with tons of style, it leaves out one key ingredient: being even remotely scary.
Radishes, cabbages and melons meet horrific ends in Berberian Sound Studio, a down-the-earhole psychodrama where what you hear is more terrifying than what you see.
Writer/director Peter Strickland intriguingly weaves into the story a movie-within-a-movie that we barely see, but we hear.
A sometimes interesting, sometimes head-scratching movie that pays homage to the old ways of the sound mixing world and to the "giallo" genre of horror that was prominent in Italy during the 1970s.
[It] not only exploits one of cinema's most important modes, it also attempts something more difficult: turning a genre movie into a work of art.
"Berberian Sound Studio" may be the finest tribute to the old-school cinematic craftsmanship of the sound mixer and Foley artist I've ever encountered.
This is a real cinephile's delight - with Peter Strickland almost gorging on the four cinematic elements of sound (quite literally), cinematography, editing and mise en scène.
You have to hand it to Berberian Sound Studio for originality.
I have never encountered anything quite so auditorily menacing... I promise you have never seen, or heard, anything like it, and Toby Jones's performance is fantastically gripping.
Strickland has created a sublime piece of cinema that is intelligent, comic and one of the most profoundly disturbing films to be seen in recent years.
An imaginative and expertly-edited psychological thriller/meta exercise that dissolves the barrier between reality and fiction using a fantastic sound design, beautiful scene transitions and a smart cinematography that nicely references the style of the Italian giallos of the '70s.
Total waste of one and a half hours. Made no sense whatsoever. I don't mind weird or something that doesn't quite add up until the end, but when it's both those things and still doesn't have an explanation of some type, I get a bit annoyed!
This second feature from director Peter Strickland (following "Katalin Varga" in 2009) is certainly an interesting bag of mixed opinions. Some have claimed it to be a five star experience, while others simply didn't get it. I suppose it depends a lot on your approach beforehand but there's no mistaking that it's one of those film's where your left to make up your own mind. An experienced British sound-engineer is hired to work on a low-budget Italian horror movie called "Equestrian Vortex". Throughout his work, he struggles with the language-barrier and constant exposure to horror movie images and finds himself drawn into a vortex all his own, as he begins to lose his grasp on reality. The thing that strikes you most from this film when it opens is it's good sense of atmosphere. It possess an almost strange sepia tint, as if the proceedings have been desaturated. There's a permeating feeling dread and unease that courses through it as time, itself, seems to stroll by. Strickland is certainly in no rush to tell his story and he also abandons any conventional method in doing so; a good chunk of the dialogue is in Italian and there's a deliberate omission of subtitles. This may put some people off but it serves to create an understanding and affiliation with the loneliness and isolation of the protagonist, Gilderoy (played brilliantly by Toby Jones). Although deliberate, and an interesting method, I also found it somewhat frustrating. What's also very interesting is that the story takes shape in the sound that's provided for film's rather than the images. How many times have you ever seen a horror movie that relies solely on audio rather than visual? Cabbages are stabbed and plunged into water to provide the perfect accompanying sound of someone being stabbed or drowned. It's an interesting insight and the suggestion of horror is actually captured very well using this approach. When we do, eventually, see the images that have been getting dubbed, it throws the film into a completely new surrealistic direction that shares similarities with the mind-bending talents of David Lynch and his art imitating life theme of "Inland Empire" or "Mulholland Drive". Of course, thats where the similarity ends as Strickland doesn't have the ability to construct his story with any real meaning in the way that Lynch excels at. I'm no stranger to surreal cinema, in fact I love it but this leaned a little too far to self-indulgence for me. Anyone familiar with the 'Giallo' horrors of Italian cinema during the 60's and 70's will, no doubt, take a lot more from this film than I did. That being said, there's no denying it's grasp on atmosphere and it's impressive ability to build tension. However, as our protagonist becomes increasingly withdrawn and descends in madness, we descend into obscurity without any real satisfying conclusion. For me, the film just ended. I was aware of it's nature and prepared for any subtext or symbolism that it might throw my way, but in the end, it didn't quite come together. I was hoping for a more satisfying conclusion. It's certainly not to everyone's tastes. For some, it will bore; for others, it will confuse. However, if your open minded enough, it will draw you in. Basically, it's an art-house horror that can either be seen as pretentious clap trap or an astute homage. I find myself somewhere in between.

By moving into the automobile industry, the company bought the Automobilwerk Eisenach in the year 1928 and using that, the rights to build the Dixi car. In the beginning, the cars were named as BMW Dixi, but the name was dropped in the year 1929 when the DA-1 was replaced by the updated version, the BMW 3/15 DA-2. The car went on sales about 80 years ago in the year 1929.
In the year 1959, the company was close to bankruptcy because of the cold wars. The Mercedes parent company Daimler-Benz attempted a hostile takeover. At the same time, BMW made a counter attack, by enlisting even the lowest mechanics in the company's help to buying back shares. In the end, they found help from a significant private investor, whose family owns a lot of shares of the company today. Due to this battle, it caused a significant rivalry between the companies, which is still evident till date.
The headquarters of BMW has a similar design to that of a four-cylinder engine. It also represents the four-cylinder heritage of BMW. They made about every fuel-efficient car in the history of the car industry. The same technology was used directly into the engine of the car used by Red Baron called the greatest war engine in the war. They race in the Formula 1 tournament and won the championship with 20-year-old motor design.
BMW started during the world war I because Germany had few planes and plane parts. After the war, the German companies were banned from producing any warplanes and warplane engines by the terms of the Treaty of Versailles. The company then shifted to motorcycle production and followed by automobiles in the year 1928.
The very first BMW "M" car, known as the legendary M1 was supposed to be a Lamborghini. The company and Lambo came into an agreement in the year 1970 to jointly build a race car. The Germans were supposed to give the engine, and even some suspension bits and the Italians will the do the rest. Due to some financial reasons, Lamborghini pulled out at the last minute, which was supposed to be one of the most significant moments in the automobile industry.
Musk joined the company in the year 2004 where led the company's investment round and chaired the company's BOD. He also worked as the company's controlling investor by personally funding the majority of series A capital investment with about $7.5 million. As he became the face of the upcoming famous Tesla, his relationship with the founders sparked a legal battle that was settled out of court.
Driving an EV is very comforting but when it is the time to plug in the car for those who rely on the EV for the long trips cannot just slip into garages to recharge their vehicles. The company has tried to avoid the problem by placing about 1332 stations which are equipped with more than 10,000 superchargers around the world. The cost of using these stations incorporated into the price of the car when you are buying it, and it is very convenient. The company even gives maps to the travelers so they can find where to recharge.
The company's name was given in honor of Nikola Tesla, who is a Serbian inventor and an engineer who developed the very first modern alternating current motor. On the first versions of the Tesla motors website the company's leaders announced "without the belief of Tesla's vision, our car would not be possible. The co-founder of the company selected the name after struggling for months in an idea that is then-girlfriend sounded appropriate. They decided the name over dinner when he suggested Tesla as the company name.
There many electric cars in the present market, varying from Nissan Leaf to the new Mercedes Benz B class, but the company won over the customers with its unique blend of power and its range. The reason behind this was that other manufacturers used a specialized large format lithium-ion cell. The company's battery pack is made of thousands of inexpensive commodity cells that is similar to the ones in the laptop, but more refined. There are more than a billion of these cells produced in a year for all kind of industry, meaning their design and its performance has a lot of fierce competitive pressures in the market.
Even though Elon Musk is known as the company's CEO and the product architect, the firm existed before he got involved. Tesla was started in the year 2003 by Martin Eberhard and Marc Trapenning in an attempt to solve a real problem, that is the dependence of oil. They decided to build a beautiful, yet expensive aspirational car to improve green cars and ease them. The team spent about three years developing the product and also seeking new capital.
Karl Benz patented his three-wheeled, Motorwagen in the year 1886, which his wife took on a 120-mile tour through Germany without his knowledge. It was equipped with a 954cc single-piston, four-stroke -engine with a blistering-for-that-time 0.9hp.
Most of the company's race cars, the special and their flagship models have the company's recognizable silver shade but the color only a mere improvisation. In the year 1934 at the Nürburgring, Mercedes-Benz's white, aluminum-bodied W 25 race car had to be under the weight of 750 kg to race, but it came in over one kilogram above the standard weight. The racing team manager decided to take out the paint which resulted in a sparkling silver racer that ended up winning the race and even cementing an archetypal color.
Early car companies experimented with a mixture of electric and gasoline-powered vehicles before cars powered by petrol took over, the company's Mixte model was the very first manufactured hybrid car. It had a gas engine in the front along with a dynamo that supplied the spark for the two motors in the rear. The model claimed a top speed of 75 mph.
When Daimler manufactured a vertical, one-cylinder engine back in the year 1885 that ran on gasoline, he attached it into a wooden frame that is based off a bicycle. This cool invention brought in the Daimler Reitwagen and is considered the very first motorcycle.
In the year 1951, when most of the American cars subscribed to the more-metal-is-safer attitude, the company's engineer Béla Barényi's research led to a patent on a variety of specialized cells within the car body that can deform upon any impact. These "crumple zones" helped them to redistribute the force of impact during a crash and ended up being implemented on Mercedes-Benz cars ever since the year 1959.
By the summer of the year 1924, all the company's cars have been equipped with brakes on four wheels, and it also helped in solidifying the company's commitment to safety. Then in the year 1931, they brought in the Mercedes-Benz 170, which was well-equipped with a suspension on each corner of the car, also with leaf springs in the front and even an innovative coil spring at the rear.
Toyota has a lot of patents with them. They have the record for holding the highest number of patents. The company has over 1000 global patents and its far ahead of any automotive company. The company's patents increase as it brings in more developed and innovative technologies in the future.
The company always had a huge budget for its research and development because for them providing safety and innovative vehicles to their customer is the top priority. Every year, the company puts in more than 9 billion dollars into their Research and development. All these create new and innovative ideas, technologies and design. The company is striving to develop better safety features to make roads a safer place and also to keep their customers happy.
When the company was on the verge of bankruptcy, the Korean war boosted the car economy. In June of the year 1950, the company made about 300 trucks, and the Korean war increased this number to over 5000. It helped the company to rebuild their business, and it began to thrive.
Toyota's brand name has a long history to it. The initial name was spelled with a "d" after its founder Kiichiro Toyoda. It was then changed to Toyota due to the Japanese script as the spelling contained eight strokes. It was also considered as a lucky number in the East Asian Culture.
The company's Eco-Friendly cars are very popular among Toyota vehicles. It puts a lot of time and research into manufacturing quality hybrid vehicles. They are even the leading company for hybrid vehicles in the industry. Their main objective is to go greener. Toyota cares about the environment and wants to help others reduce the carbon footprint. The Toyota Prius introduced by the company is the very first hybrid vehicle. At present, there are more than 11 million different hybrids across the globe.
Toyota has an excellent history in the automotive industry. It was initially known for being a textile business called the Toyoda Automatic Loom Works. In the year 1937, Toyoda's oldest son turned the business into an automobile manufacturing company, and even the changed the name to Toyota Motor Company. He then traveled to the United States of America in the year 1929, where ideas of manufacturing the Toyota vehicle inspired him. He also believed that Japan needed to produce more domestic vehicles to boost their economy to support their war against China.
When it comes to automobiles OWMBC provides a wholesome and a perfect solution. They have good quality parts and do great work..

Italian GP race 2 was a really disaster in many ways. In the start Maritimo 11 with Tom and Pal got a okay start but was behind Victory 1 and Victory 77. The famous blue sandwitch did as usual in the start unfair stunts. Both Victory boats closed the door for Maritimo. Tom and Pal had to slow down because of a possible flip. They where forced to change lane to the inside to avoid a bid accident.
Pal says - After all the issues yesterday me and Tom had really a lack of motivation. We felt like winners in race 1 but was punished in a wrong way in our and almost everybodys eyes but not WPPA (the federation for Class-1). We tried to stay focused on race 2 but it was for sure a challenge.
I am also very upset on some of our rivals in the race. They pay no respect to other competiotors and they are for sure are on a mission out there. We got really a nasty situation when to boats closed the door in the start. Several other incidents during the race make me feel bad about the situation our sport (Class) is in for the moment. I hope now things get sorted and that we can play a fair game on and of the track in the future. On lap ten our day was for sure over when an engine stopped and made a lot of smoke from the boat.

Scott Meenagh selected for ParalympicsGB Team
Posted by Help For Heroes | Categories: Sports Recovery , Special Events
Help for Heroes athlete Scott Meenagh has been selected to ParalympicsGB for the Winter Games, meaning the team will be represented in Para Nordic skiing for the first time since Nagano 1998.
On his Games debut at PyeongChang 2018, Scott will represent ParalympicsGB in both cross country and biathlon. His selection means that the team will be represented in an historic five sports.

Scott previously competed in Para rowing at an international level, however he made the switch to Nordic Skiing in March 2016.
He said: "It's an incredible feeling to know my name is on the team sheet and that I'm set to achieve my goal of representing Great Britain at a Paralympic Games. I can't wait to get out to South Korea to compete and I'm determined to give my very best performance.
"I've totally fallen in love with this sport and I hope that I will encourage others to follow me so that we can develop Para-Nordic skiing further for Beijing 2022."
Jayne Kavanagh, Performance Pathway Manager at Help for Heroes said: "We are all incredibly proud of what Scott has accomplished. Sport has given him a second chance at life post-injury and through support offered through Help for Heroes and his own determination, he has regained his purpose and been empowered to compete on a world stage. He is an inspiration to others who suffered a life-changing injury or illness and we can't wait to experience more achievements with him at the Games."
Penny Briscoe OBE, Chef de Mission for ParalympicsGB, said: "I'm absolutely delighted for Scott and I'd like to congratulate him on his selection to the team. He is a talented athlete who has made impressive progress since he started competing on snow and I look forward to cheering him on in South Korea.
"His development in the sport is also testament to the support and commitment from Help for Heroes and the Armed Forces Para Snowsport Team and I'd like to thank them for their work to help get Scott to the start line in PyeongChang."
The announcement takes the number of athletes currently selected for ParalympicsGB to 17 after athletes were selected in Para alpine skiing, Para snowboard and wheelchair curling.

If you are a wounded, injured or sick Service Personnel or Veteran interested in trying Para-Nordic skiing or any other Winter Sport, please email sportsrecovery@helpforheroes.org.uk


We have these every time we have chili. They are so quick and easy to make. See Notes for a gluten-free option.
Preheat oven to 350. Fill muffin pan with liners, or spray lightly with cooking spray.
Add applesauce, non-dairy milk, corn and sweetener. Mix until combined.
Filling muffin cups 3/4 full and bake for 25-28 minutes until toothpick or small knife entered in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Immediately transfer muffins from pan to cooling rack.
Gluten-free option: use an all-purpose gluten-free flour in place of the whole wheat (I like Trader Joe's), 1/8 tsp xanthan gum added to dry ingredients, and 2 tsp apple cider vinegar and 2 tsp olive oil added to wet. I don't usually cook with oil but this small amount seems to help make these muffins moist and not seem like they are gluten-free (let's be real here - a lot of g/f baked goods are just bad). You can leave it out, the muffins will be fine, but I prefer to use it.
This entry was posted in Blog, Recipes and tagged chili, cornbread, gluten-free, low-fat, muffins, oil-free, vegan by Shelly Detken. Bookmark the permalink.
By 6 servings do you mean 6 muffins? Or does this make a dozen and a serving is 2 muffins?
6 muffins. Sorry for the delayed response – I didn't get notified for some reason.
If the corn is omitted will the muffins cook up the same?

Welcome. I have an 04 S as well and absolutely love driving it. Post some photos after you take ownership. This is a very helpful forum and you can find tons of info if you use the search function.
Picked up, drove a bit, had fun - what more is there to say?
Picked up from the dealer Saturday afternoon first two pictures. Spent part of Saturday/Sunday figuring out the bells and whistles and a few quick trips with friends and family. Pictures of the engine were bone dry, no leaks of any kind noted.


There is just so much to do and experience. So much to see, and so many fairy houses to build.
There are food trucks to wait outside of (Seoul Sausage from the Great Food Truck Race 3) and lemonade to be consumed.
Summer for me is about experiencing the excitement with my children and experiencing the joy of my little ones.
I tend to go on a sort of blogging vacation during the summer months. I am still here, stalking creative ideas on pintrest and sewing t-shirt goodness. I just do it at my own pace.
So if you are looking for regular updates, never fear, they will be back in the Fall. I will be here, but on a very casual basis. The blog will be around forever, but my children won't be young for that much longer.
So keep popping by, just don't be sad if I don't update too often.

A Discrepancy in Comprehension and Production in Early Language Development in ASD: Is it Clinically Relevant?
Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > Uitgave 7/2017
Meghan M. Davidson, Susan Ellis Weismer
This study examined the extent to which a discrepant comprehension-production profile (i.e., relatively more delayed comprehension than production) is characteristic of the early language phenotype in autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and tracked the developmental progression of the profile. Our findings indicated that a discrepant comprehension-production profile distinguished toddlers (30 months) with ASD from late talkers without ASD (91% sensitivity, 100% specificity) in groups that were comparable on expressive language, age, and socioeconomic status. Longitudinal data for children with ASD revealed that the discrepant profile steadily decreased from 30 to 44 months until there was no significant comprehension-production difference at 66 months. In conclusion, results suggest that lower comprehension than production may be an age-specific marker of toddlers with ASD.

Our TA Expert Interview Series highlights a variety of B2B technologies through conversations with industry leaders, in collaboration with our Tech Conference partnerships.
In each conversation we seek to uncover the story behind the technology and examine some of the innovation happening in business technology.
Many of our conversations are with entrepreneurs and tech founders. However no matter what industry or category the company is in, a common theme is the amount of dedication, or "hustle," they've invested in their careers.
There are many definitions of "hustle." Here's how Jon Acuff, the New York Times Bestelling Author of Do Over, defined it when we spoke to him at the Nashville Entrepreneur Center.
Jon: I think that one of the phrases I often talk about is that hustle is fuel, it's the fuel that makes you actually do the things you want to do. So you can have the best intentions, the best hopes, the best dreams but unless you actually do them, they don't matter. So I kind of look at a dream like a car and the most amazing car that doesn't have fuel is a really amazingly heavy well-designed paper weight. For me that's what hustle is and it's that fuel. Sometimes, I say it's doing the important things others don't to enjoy the results others won't. That's kind of how I look at hustle. Again it's about focus, not frenzy. I think sometimes we think it's become a workaholic and that's not what it is at all.
Jon also elaborated on the importance of getting out of your comfort zone and interacting directly with your customers.
Speaking of hustle, it's a topic we've covered a few times here at TechnologyAdvice.
