DAN HESSE INTERVIEW - SPRINT CEO ON TECHNOLOGY AND FINANCE
Dan Hesse, Sprint Nextel CEO, shares some of his valuable strategies for choosing consumer products, evaluating early adopter/consumer demand and his philosophy on managing the budget for Sprint... and the US. Sprint Nextel has revenues of $36 billion and Dan's successful track record with the company certainly makes him someone I love to get advice from.
It is my pleasure to welcome Dan Hesse back for Part 2 of our interview (Part 1 of our interview focuses on leadership and Part 3 focuses on parenting/teaching children to excel.)
Gabrielle Reilly: Now that technology changes so rapidly, how does a CEO today make a decision on which new consumer product to offer given the initial expense to develop a product and anticipating consumer demand for the product?
Dan Hesse: I think the most important thing is you have to know what you and your company stand for. Call it your brand principles.
I encourage our people to come to me with innovative ideas around the basic foundation of what the Sprint brand stands for: simplicity. Internally, we call these innovative concepts "nukes."
Simplicity means using wireless technology to make customer's lives simpler. Just a few examples: three years ago we came out with "Simply Everything" which was the wireless industry's first rate plan that included "everything." $100 a month included unlimited data, unlimited text and unlimited voice. You can't make it any simpler than that, so Simply Everything became the first "proof point" of the new Sprint brand.
Later, we introduced "Ready Now", which offered the industry's first thorough retail one-on-one smart phone education and set up. Smart phones have been getting more and more complex. You could argue that once you get to know how to use a smart phone, they make your life simpler, but learning how to use one the first time can be complicated. At a Sprint store, we can set up your phone, even pair your Bluetooth ear bud with your phone, teach you how to use the phone's features, and customize your home screen. This was another innovation to make a customer's life simpler.
Our brand also stands for Open. We are the only carrier to offer Google Voice, which offers simplicity with your calling and voice mail setup. Google Wallet allows a phone with an NFC chip to become your credit card. Only Sprint offers Google Wallet. Software is an important area in the wireless value chain, so we decided to be uniquely open and allow our software partners, like Google, to help us simplify the customer experience.
Social responsibility is also an element of our brand. We worked with hardware manufacturer Samsung to develop the industry's first green, energy-efficient phone made of recycled and recyclable materials.
These are all examples of innovation, but each reinforces brand principles.
Gabrielle Reilly: How do you balance early adopter risks versus consumer demand?
Dan Hesse: Compared to the Twin Bells, we're relatively small, even though we produce $36 billion in revenues and have over 50 million customers. We need to innovate and be first, to stand out and to lead because of our relatively small size, which includes taking the additional risk which comes with being a "first mover."
We don't try to anticipate demand. Take Apple for example. Customers weren't demanding an ipod, an iphone, or an ipad. I believe the most successful products and offers are based upon vision and innovation, not market research. Market research might help with the other 3 "P's": price, promotion or place, but doesn't play a key role in creating a breakthrough "product" (the 4th "P" from Philip Kotler's famous Marketing books). Customers often don't know what they want, but they'll recognize the utility of something new when they see it.
Gabrielle Reilly: With the great debate raging in Washington on whether to cut spending or cut costs and invest in the future... how do you weigh-in philosophically and practically on this topic?
Dan Hesse: I believe very strongly in investment, but you can't invest money you don't have. When I arrived at Sprint, it was clear we needed to invest in a number of areas to stay competitive, but we needed to cut expenses so that we had money to invest. Sprint can't print money.
So we prioritized and cut expenses radically. We cut our labor costs by more than 1/3 so that we could buy a prepaid company and put the most advanced wireless technology into our network. It's easier said than done, but you have to make choices.
So looking at the U.S. economy, we need to make choices, no matter how difficult this may be. For example, we need to prioritize and choose: What is more important, the elderly or our youth, entitlements versus infrastructure investments, etc.? To re-state the obvious: you can't invest what you don't have.

Naomi Osaka vs. Tatjana Maria - 8/7/19 Rogers Cup Tennis Pick, Odds, and Prediction
By: Avijoy
Tatjana Maria vs. Naomi Osaka
Wednesday August 7, 2019, 5:00 PM (EDT)
The Line: -- Over/Under:
Susan Mullane-USA TODAY Sports
Japanese tennis superstar, Naomi Osaka is set to play at the 2019 WTA Rogers Cup in Toronto. Osaka will begin her tournament in the second round where she will play against Tatjana Maria from Germany.
Naomi Osaka automatically made it through to the second round as she received a bye in the opening round due to her high seeding. Naomi Osaka has been in terrible form as she has failed to make a quarterfinal appearance since the Italian Open which was in May. Osaka last played at Wimbledon where she was eliminated in the opening round. Osaka looked hugely low on confidence during her loss at Wimbledon as she lost in straight sets. Moving onto the hard-court season should be a boost for Naomi Osaka as most of her success has been on this surface. Osaka has won the US Open and the Australian Open in the past 12 months. This will be a challenging match for Osaka as Maria is a very experienced opponent.
On the other side of the coin, Tatjana Maria enters this match having won her previous match in straight sets. Maria was very impressive during the match, especially with her receiving. Tatjana Maria won 48% of her receiving points which allowed her to break her opponent's serve on 4 occasions. The serving was also solid from Tatjana Maria as she won 80% of her service games. Tatjana Maria looks in good form and she will be confident in her ability to challenge Naomi Osaka.
Tatjana Maria and Naomi Osaka have played each other twice in the past with both players winning on one occasion. The most recent match between these two players was in 2016 at the China Open where Tatjana Maria won in straight sets.
Naomi Osaka is a terrific player and she has proven herself at big tournaments. That being said, Osaka looks very low on confidence and she seems to be struggling with the pressure of being a highly ranked player. Tatjana Maria is a hugely accomplished and she is a very solid tennis player. I see Osaka's confidence issue costing her another match as Tatjana Maria gets the victory.

I decided to take a drive on Sunday and take some pictures of the area because it looks so different because of all the rain we have been having.
Of course some things about driving in Phoenix, Arizona never change.
Don't Expect This to Ever Happen - Are You Hungry For Chinese Food?
How do you feel about telemarketers? Maybe they would be more fun if you had any interest at all in their product.
This is Episode 1 of "Don't Expect This to Ever Happen"
Episode 2 is written and it has special effects. Good Stuff!!!!
Botox is a neurotoxin. Shooting it into your head just doesn't sound like a good idea to me. Of course I look really young for my age.
A Convoluted Review of "Healing Through Stealing"
First off I hate my profile. I mean if anyone needs a jawline it's me. WTF!!!
Anyways this video documents my experience after reading "Healing Through Stealing" written by Karl Miller one of the tireless employees at Serious Magic.
So the only thing I really know about Hunter S. Thompson is that he was big in the 60's and wrote "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas". I did see the movie though.
NOTE: Please don't bother to tell me the book was better. The book is always better. We all know that and don't need to hear it again.
I hope you work at a bank or the post office or some federal job and got today off. I just happen to have the day off but still have a ton of work to do. I made a vlog anyways... gotta keep my priorities straight.
So my neck and back are really sore today. Probably from slouching in that chair for 7 hours last night. NO WORRIES though -- a few Vicoden and I should be good as new. Speaking of medication this oldy but goody is about just that. (Serious Magic viewers may have seen it before.) See you Monday.
This is just to let my viewers know just how much I appreciate it when they take a moment to comment.
This is also the first video I shot using my Logitech webcam that I have had but almost never used.
The Mac switch parody is cliche at this point but I had an idea and I just couldn't resist.
The toughest part was finding the music.
I thought I have released this video here already. I was wrong.
What are they going to do with your body when you're dead?
This is a somber subject that we all need to consider.


It's 2015 and a blank canvas is in front of you! There's a year full of opportunities to fill your AT-A-GLANCE with outstanding memories you'll never forget. Every time you write something in your planner, you're documenting your day. Once the month is done, you'll be able to look back and see everything you've accomplished and remember all the fun you had!
What are your big goals for 2015? Are you aiming toward a promotion at work? Running a half marathon? Starting your own blog? No matter how you're challenging yourself, track your goals in your AT-A-GLANCE planner. Break down big goals into smaller, weekly or monthly accomplishments to check off. Write these stepping stone goals on each monthly tab or at the top of the week. After all, it's easier to conquer big goals with baby steps.
What big events do you have coming up in 2015? Going on any fun vacations? Start looking, booking, and getting ready for an exciting trip ahead of time. Don't let the time slip away before your vacation; figure out the details ahead of time so you can relax and enjoy your trip when the time comes. Have a special date planned for a wedding this year? No matter if it's yours or if you're attending, use your AT-A-GLANCE to schedule what you need to do before the big date. You'll have quite a few reminders like when to buy a gift, attend a bridal shower, or book a hotel for the reception. Even a little event, like your kid jumping from elementary to middle school, make it a big deal! Plan something special to celebrate the day—go out for pizza and bowling. After all, time flies and sooner than later they'll be in high school.
Get out of your comfort zone this year—start a new hobby and stick with it! Write down what you want to do in your AT-A-GLANCE and hold yourself accountable. Decide when you're going to start, and write down the date in your planner. Make it an event! Who knows what will happen; if you decide to join a book club you may end up meeting your best friend.
It's the beginning of a new year, your opportunities are endless, and this is your year! Use your AT-A-GLANCE to help you achieve anything you put your mind to! Dream big and plan for every exciting moment!

Rediscovering His Home: Gregg Allman's Low Country Blues
Any assessment of a musician, in whole or in part, can only be made with the hard facts. On Low Country Blues, the new release by Gregg Allman, we have the musical evidence of a great and unadorned player. Produced by T-Bone Burnett, Allman's new record features the weathered, but soulful voice of a long, often turbulent life, too.
Low Country Blues is not a bumpin' and grindin' record. It's pure, plain and simple while featuring Allman's inspired vocals backed by the "Burnett Band" featuring Jay Bellerose on drums and percussion, Dennis Crouch on acoustic bass, Doyle Bramhall II on electric guitar; all rounded out by Mac Rebennack, aka Dr. John, on piano. The result is a balanced mix with different acoustic colours and shadings. It's a style Burnett has applied to some of the most significant albums of the past few years such as, Raising Sand by Robert Plant and Alison Krauss and Elvis Costello's under-recognized, National Ransom, released last year. And like those records, which married the innate talent of the artists to their love for genuine American sounds, Burnett has successfully done the same with Gregg Allman. Low Country Blues is the perfect music mix featuring Burnett's "sound" and Allman's desire to re-discover the home of his life-long journey found in the blues.
Gregg Allman at the organ
It's been 14 years since Allman has released a solo album. But you wouldn't know it on the opening track, "Floating Bridge" by Sleepy John Estes. It's the perfect start to the record as the story of the blind bluesman from Tennessee who, poor of sight, fell into a river and was saved by a stranger. Clearly, the blues means the same thing to Gregg Allman because it's often in the blues that a musician, who's metaphorically lost his way, finds the truth about himself. Low Country Blues is a cross-section of the genre that features re-imagined versions of such classics as "I Can't Be Satisfied" by Muddy Waters and the ever constant "Rollin' Stone,"now in the public domain. The latter is still fresh in its new version arranged by Allman, Burnett and Dr. John. This closing number also reflects the steady pulse of the whole album. Unfortunately, that can't be said for everything here.
Some tracks sound deliberately sluggish such as "Checking on My Baby" by Otis Rush. It's a great blues song, but I don't feel any forward motion from the band. The performance sounds restricted and reined-in, as it were. "Little by Little" has the fastest tempo on the whole album and is particularly strong because Allman is featured on Hammond B-3 organ. He likes that comfort zone, often seen when he once fronted the Allman Brothers Band, which results in a stronger vocal performance. The Amos Milburn song " Tears, Tears, Tears" features a good horn arrangement, as does the B.B. King standard "Please Accept My Love," but the vocals are too self-conscious to my ear.
Greg Allman with T-Bone Burnett
But what the album may lack in some of the performances, it makes up for in the buoyant "Just Another Rider," "Blind Man" and "Devil Got My Woman." These songs are successful because of Allman's familiarity with the material and what their meaning holds for him. He sings these standards with just the right balance of angst and inner pain.
Recording with T-Bone Burnett is as much about the history of the music as it is about the artist performing it. That brand, as it were, is evident on most of the albums he's produced over the years, including his own. It's not that everything he touches turns to gold, witness the rather disappointing Elton John/Leon Russell collaboration last year, but this time his magic works with Gregg Allman.
The liner notes are graced with several photographs of Allman standing among, what appears to be, the magnolia trees of the South. But inside is a portrait of the Allman sitting, bare-armed, in a high backed chair. On his right forearm is a large tattoo of a treble clef. To quote Joni Mitchell, "blue songs are like tattoos." For Gregg Allman whose love affair with the blues started when he was 10-years-old, Low Country Blues reveals his love with passion, commitment and soul.

Lord Mayor Graham Quirk and Lady Mayoress Anne Quirk of Brisbane, Australia, announced Next Generation Athlete grants and scholarships to 17 local athletes at a reception held at the Town Hall on Tuesday (25 July).
The fourth round of the programme is intended to help athletes realise their sporting dreams and is supported by the Lord Mayor's Charitable Trust. It could also assist in their preparation for the 2019 International Federation for Intellectual Impairment Sport (World Intellectual Impairment Sport) Global Games, which are being held in the Australian city.
"Over the last 50 years the Lord Mayor's Charitable Trust has improved the wellbeing of the most marginalised and vulnerable members of our community. I would like to congratulate all recipients today and take this opportunity to thank Sport Inclusion Australia for their hard work and dedication to facilitate inclusiveness in all sports across the Brisbane community. It is our pleasure to make a positive difference in the lives of these young athletes," Quirk, who is also an World Intellectual Impairment Sport Global Games Patron, said.
Inspired by fellow Brisbane resident and world welterweight boxing champion Jeff Horn, the Lord Mayor also provided some encouraging words to athletes: "Follow your dream to be the best that you can be in your sporting endeavours."
Athletes acknowledged the support of the Lord Mayor's Charitable Trust and the importance of the grants in helping them meet the costs of training, equipment and competition as they strive to reach their potential.
Grants and scholarships were awarded to athletes across athletics, cricket, indoor cricket, netball, swimming and tennis.
"Sport Inclusion Australia is delighted to have developed the Next Generation Athlete programme with the support of the Lord Mayor's Charitable Trust. The Next Generation Athlete programme is an innovative way of identifying and supporting young athletes with an intellectual impairment in the Brisbane metropolitan region on their athletic pathway. It will assist aspiring young athletes with the help of state sporting organisations and Queensland school sport to provide an opportunity to compete at local, state, national and international level and if possible the 2019 World Intellectual Impairment Sport Global Games here in Brisbane," Robyn Smith, Chief Executive of Sport Inclusion Australia, said.
The presentation also provided an opportunity to release the latest Next Generation Athlete promotional video highlighting stories of current scholarship holders.

Having been drawn in by the striking green tiled exterior we settled into a table parallel to the long bar. Having ummed and ahhhed long enough I settled on the standard brunch option – eggs benedict whilst my manlier half opted for the more adventurous american pancakes, crispy wild boar bacon and frangelico syrup. That was it, we were sold!
The MARKET is, in their words; 'a Marketplace; a hub; a hive of activity where you can indulge your taste buds with great food and drink.' And they aren't kidding. After pondering over plans for the typical "perfect night out" for Valentines weekend I decided upon MARKET. Brunch had proven a winner, therefore how could they go wrong with cocktails and dinner?!
They couldn't, after many dishes – mostly containing truffle thanks to our addiction – and many cocktails we were left feeling tipsy and satisfied. The busy, buzzing atmosphere was great. The staff are chatty and friendly but not intrusive and we had a great night. No better way to spend an evening than perched at a bar eating mouthwatering food and ordering magical cocktails.
If you get one of the bar stools, you can both eat your own food and admire the food and drinks of others whilst it is freshly prepared right in front of you. We spent our evening playing guess the dish whilst getting more and more giggly. I definitely recommend!

The New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services (NHDES) has announced that construction activities on the Suncook River stabilization and infrastructure protection project are currently underway in Epsom, NH.
"This is a NHDES led project in partnership with the New Hampshire Department of Transportation (NHDOT) with work being conducted by F.L. Merrill Construction Inc. out of Loudon, NH," NHDES said in their announcement.
The Mother's Day Flood of 2006 caused the Suncook River to create a new channel to the east of Bear Island between the Huckins Mill Dam and the U.S. Route 4 Bridge.
The Suncook River is continuing to adjust to this shorter channel length by migrating across a sand dominated valley and down-cutting steadily.
This ongoing process is visible just downstream of the U.S. Route 4 Bridge where the shortened length of the Suncook River now threatens the structural integrity of the bridge footings and has already damaged agricultural fields adjacent to the Suncook River.
There are two active construction sites on the Suncook River; the first is located immediately downstream of the U.S. Route 4 Bridge, and the second is just downstream of the confluence with the Little Suncook River.
Heavy equipment will be accessing the project sites from U.S. Route 4 and Black Hall Road.

NeuroNews International
Non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation may provide clinical benefit to patients with COVID-19
Peter Staats
An article accepted into the journal Neuromodulation has concluded that, based on two case reports, non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation (nVNS) might provide clinical benefits in patients with COVID-19 via "multiple mechanisms".
While most COVID-19 cases are mild, the authors, Peter Staats (electroCore, Basking Ridge, USA) and colleagues acknowledge that a minority of patients develop moderate to severe respiratory symptoms, which they say appears to be due to a hyperimmune reaction—otherwise known as a "cytokine storm".
"While the search for an antiviral, or a vaccine effective for SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing COVID-19, remains a priority, we also need to put resources and an effort to solving this cytokine storm," Staats tells NeuroNews.
As VNS has been demonstrated to block production of cytokines in sepsis in animal models and in many other medical conditions (including PTSD, Sjogrens disease, rheumatoid arthritis and stroke), Staats and his team hypothesised that nVNS might provide clinical benefits in patients with respiratory symptoms, such as those exhibited in the novel coronavirus.
The information on the two case reports was obtained via email correspondence and phone interviews with the patients.
According to the authors, in Case 1, the patient used nVNS to aid his recovery at home after hospital discharge, and was subsequently able to discontinue use of opioids and cough suppressant medications. In Case 2, the patient experienced reliable relief from chest tightness and dyspnea within five minutes of using the stimulation. He also observed an improved ability to clear his lungs when he used nVNS to manage his symptoms at home.
"Avoidance of ventilator dependence in both cases and lack of hospitalisation in Case 2 cannot be causally attributed to nVNS, but it is reasonable to speculate that nVNS therapy may have been a supporting factor, via either bronchodilation or inhibition of cytokine release," argue Staats and colleagues.
They add, given the concerns about number of intensive care unit beds and ventilators amid the pandemic, that it is "imperative to consider all viable therapeutic options". Thus, they put forward that "the well-established safety and tolerability of nVNS therapy make it a particularly attractive treatment modality that merits immediate study".
Underlying mechanisms
In terms of how VNS can help patients with respiratory distress brought on by COVID-19, Staats and colleagues allude to two main mechanisms. They write that when the body's inflammatory response is dysregulated, bronchoconstriction can occur, which limits the flow of air to and from the lungs. "VNS may inhibit this airway constriction through a parasympathetic-sympathetic reflex arc, whereby stimulation of an afferent vagal nerve causes an efferent sympathetically mediated release of catecholamines that results in smooth muscle relaxation," posit the authors.
Secondly, they argue, based on available evidence, that the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway (CAP) is believed to be the vagus nerve-based arm of the inflammatory reflex. "The use of CAP to regulate the inflammatory response has been investigated broadly using varying forms of VNS for more than 20 years, [and] the use of nVNS to target neural pathways to treat inflammatory diseases represents the most recent exploration of this pathway.
A future for nVNS in the setting of COVID-19
Staats and his team believe there is a strong scientific and clinical foundation for the hypothesis that nVNS can improve disease outcomes in patients with COVID-19. They reiterate that the robust established safety and tolerability of the modality strengthens the case for additional investigation and use of nVNS to fight the pandemic.
According to the investigators, an Emergency Use Authorization application was recently submitted to the US Food and Drug Administration (on 2 April, 2020), which aims to facilitate use and further study of nVNS amid COVID-19. Meanwhile, randomised controlled trials are being initiated at multiple sites in both the USA and Europe.
While enrolment has been slower than anticipated, given the impact the pandemic has had on clinical trials, Staats tells NeuroNews that there is now an international consortium investigating whether VNS can have a positive effect that meets once a week.

Women's basketball: Kemph, Billiken offense dominate in win over Bonnies
(Gabby Richmond Photo Credit: GoBonnies.com)
By Cameron Hurst @CameronNHurst
In her four years as head coach of the Saint Louis women's team, Lisa Stone had never won a game at the Reilly Center.
"I've never come to Olean and jogged around the campus and left this place happy," said Stone, following the Billikens' 74-58 rout of the Bonnies on Saturday afternoon. "This will be a happy flight home. I'm really proud of our kids."
The Bonnies (9-16, 4-9 A-10) struggled early as Saint Louis started 12-of-16 from the field in the first quarter thanks to 12 early points from Jackie Kemph, who would finish with 20. And, while St. Bonaventure kept it close, only trailing 26-16 after the first quarter, the Billikens (20-6, 10-3 A-10) would hold the Bonnies to only four points in the second quarter, heading into halftime with a 36-20 lead. That lead would set the tone for the rest of the game.
"Saint Louis is better than us," Fleming openly said following the loss. "Jackie Kemph is a great player …. They just have a lot of pieces. I was disappointed with our fight in the middle of the game. I thought we finished stronger just like out there.
"We've got to get back to defending and playing for each other a little more … we've just got to keep working."
Positively, the Bonnies did hold Saint Louis, typically a 36 percent three-point shooting team, to just 3-of-24 from beyond the three-point line. They also, impressively, out-rebounded Saint Louis 35-34, which Fleming attributed to strong play from Gabby Richmond and Mckenna Maycock on the inside.
"There were some good things there," said Fleming. "With [Saint Louis] shooting 50 percent, there weren't a lot of rebounds to be had. Eight offensive rebounds shows our effort a little bit there. There were some positive things mixed in there. But, when it really mattered, we just didn't have it."
The Bonnies did also receive solid contributions from Mariah Ruff and Gabby Richmond, who finished with 18 and 20 points, respectively. The performance from St. Bonaventure's duo of upperclassmen has been something that Stone has gotten used to coaching against.
"I think they're great players," said Stone after joking that she had seen them for "too many years". "[Ruff] is great off the ball. She hunts her shot. You look at them statistically and she's going to take 100-150 shots more than anyone else. [Richmond] is just a handful down low. She's had a really bright career. She's played well in the system. She did for [former St. Bonaventure] Coach [Jim] Crowley and she is for [Jesse Fleming]."
While Ruff and Richmond had a great afternoon, offensively, the Bonnies received very little contribution from their remaining three starters in that of Terry, Hart, and Britvar as they combined to go for 7 points.
"I've got to back off of them," Fleming said of specifically Hart and Terry. "My freshmen are out of gas. That's the only thing that I can come up with and it's both ends of the floor … I've got to find a way to get their legs back to get them through the rest of the year."
The Bonnies now move forward to a matchup with George Washington (16-8, 9-3 A-10) on Wednesday as the conclusion of the regular season nears with just three games remaining on the schedule. For Fleming, the focus will be on finishing strong.
"It's about us now," said Fleming. "We've got three hard games to finish the regular season … We need to get in gear and compete a little bit more and not have those stretches where we get out of the game or have a 26 point first quarter. It's got to be important to the kids to finish strong and it's my job to figure out a way to have them finish strong and play with passion for 40 minutes."

TruTV Picks Up 'Six Degrees Of Everything' From The Fine Bros.
By Bree Brouwer • 03/12/2015 •
The Fine Bros are set to make their second leap from digital media to traditional television. The fraternal YouTube stars, who boast over 11.7 million subscribers on their main channel, will come to TruTV with a new show titled Six Degrees of Everything.
TruTV has ordered ten 30-minute episodes of Six Degrees of Everything, which will be hosted by the two Fine brothers, Benny and Rafi. The comedy show follows the Fine brothers as they try to prove that any two things in the world can be connected within six degrees. The duo will use sketch pieces, original songs, reality clips, and on-the-street interviews with random strangers to connect their two topics.
Benny and Rafi will serve as executive producers alongside Max Benator. Marc Summers will join the executive production team under his Marc Summers Productions banner. William Morris Endeavor negotiated the Six Degrees of Everything deal with TruTV and the Fine Bros.
The TruTV show is just another example of the Fine Bros. efforts to break into traditional television. The duo already had a version of their popular Kids React series, called ReactToThat, picked up by Nickelodeon in late 2014. More recently, Benny and Rafi hired former Hell's Kitchen executive Brandie Tucker to help them develop more television opportunities. On the big screen, the Fine Bros. are also prepping their first feature-length movie.
No release date for Six Degrees of Everything has been announced as of yet, but a release notes the show will be available on TruTV in the summer of 2015.

February 1951 the entire staff is gathered. In the background, the "KNM Rapp"
The actual beginning of today's Båtservice started in August 1948 when Westermoen Båtbyggeri AS in Mandal, located on the South coast of Norway was established. The name was subsequently changed to Båtservice Verft AS in 1964. The initial production at the shipyard consisted of small pleasure boats.
1949-Design and MTB Prototype Production for the Royal Norwegian Navy
In 1949 Båtservice entered into an agreement with the Royal Norwegian Navy for the design and prototype production for the MTB "Rapp". After the torpedo boats we continued to deliver three minesweepers of the US AMS-60 class. In total 42 MTB vessels of the "Tjeld" class were built for the Royal Norwegian Navy, western Germany, the US Navy and the Greek Navy. In addition six MTBs of the "Snøgg" class were built and delivered.
1955-The first civilian steel ship
Our first civilian steel ship was a small coastal liner ordered by the Stavangerske DS, she was built and delivered in 1955. Our production has also included car/trailer ships, ferries, heavy-lift ships, tugs, barges and chemical tank carriers. From this period and forward Båtservice delivered approximately 100 vessels in sizes from 299 BRT to 1599 BRT. Also to be mentioned, Båtservice built a number of fishing vessels in plastic, wood and steel. One of our major projects consisted of the building and delivery of 20 pieces - 45 ft patrol boats to the Indian Customs Services.
Adjusting to modern times
Our shipyard has managed to adjust to the demands of todays modern markets, with deliveries in the maritime and offshore areas. In 1972 we delivered the first Norwegian built offshore supply vessel for a German ship owner. In addition a number of vessels were built and delivered for standby, seismic and ROV survey purposes. during the last 20 years, we have focused on the building high speed vessels in aluminium and recently passenger catamarans in carbon fiber. In recent years our production has consisted of passenger catamarans, oil pollution cats, crew cargo cats, pilots and search and rescue vessels. In 2019, Båtservice Mandal Verft as took over the activity and business from Båtservice Mandal as. Given the changes in the world economy in the last decades, in order to maintain its competitiveness, Batservice has moved the production part of its contracts to lower cost countries, primarily Turkey and China, leaving engineering, management and supervision in Norway. This has given lots of opportunity in utilizing and combining our technical legacy with production power and experience of our local subsidiaries and partners.
Innovation since 1948
Today our focus is on building quality vessels that are fast, fuel efficient and have low fuel emissions. With over 60 years experience we now count a total of builds to be around 1000 vessels, during this time the main materials used have been, wood, steel, stainless steel, aluminium, fiber glass and carbon fiber.
With quality shipbuilding knowledge and craftmanship, we are able to deliver quality that is higher than the price.

03/1938 Ne peut, contrairement à ce qui était prévu, faire escale à Casablanca en raison de l'état sanitaire dans ce port (typhoïde) et poursuit sa croisière directement vers Fort-de-France.
01/05 Arrivée à Dakar, où le SURCOUF reste dix jours. Il visite ensuite Conakry, Port-Bouet, Lomé, Cotonou, Douala, Libreville, Port-Gentil et Pointe-Noire, où il reste chaque fois deux ou trois jours.
01/07 Retour à Brest du Surcouf après sa croisière dans l'Atlantique.
07/03 Le SURCOUF appareille de Brest pour une croisière de quatre mois sur les côtes de l'AOF et de l'AEF. Il doit relever les sous-marins de 1e classe PÉGASE et MONGE à la base de Douala.
29/09 Escorte le convoi KJ2, appareillé de Kingston, à destination de Brest.
18/02 Perte du sous-marin - La version la plus courante de sa disparition concerne son abordage par le cargo américain THOMSON LYKES. Une autre version fait état d'un bombardement par un avion américain.
À partir du point donné par l'Amirauté britannique, le SURCOUF était à 55 nautiques, à 22H20, dans le nord du THOMPSON LYKES qui déclare l'abordage à 22H30. De plus, la route du cargo est au 356 et celle du SURCOUF au 190, c'est-à-dire deux routes presque parallèles, en sens inverse. Or, tous les témoins de l'abordage déclarent que l'abordé passa de tribord à bâbord. Pour le SURCOUF, une présentation sous cette inclinaison est exclue.
La longueur du cargo est de 125 mètres mais celle du SURCOUF est de 110 mètres. Les tonnages sont de 4 700 tonnes pour le cargo et 3 300 tonnes pour le sous-marin. Les tirants d'air des deux passerelles sont identiques, le pont du sous-marin se trouve 2 mètres au-dessus de la mer. Les témoins confirment que l'abordé était bas sur l'eau et qu'il disparut sur l'avant de la passerelle, c'est à dire à 40 mètres depuis l'étrave (le SURCOUF mesure 110 mètres). Lors du passage au bassin, aucune trace de dégât ne fut relevé au-dessus de la flottaison et la vitesse du cargo fut à peine ralenti lors du choc. Or, si le pont est à 2 mètres au-dessus de l'eau, l'ensemble tourelle-baignoire est à 7-8 mètres de haut par rapport au pont, sur 30 mètres de long.
La coque épaisse du sous-marin en acier à 50 kg a une épaisseur de 22 millimètres contre 6 millimètres pour celle du cargo. Les dégâts sur le cargo étaient insignifiants par rapport à ceux des destroyers abordant volontairement les U-Boot.
Le SURCOUF possédait 54 tonnes de munitions d'artillerie. Pourquoi n'ont-elles pas explosé ?
Enfin, sur les 350 m3 de gas-oil, près de 80 tonnes avaient été consommées. Les 270 tonnes restantes n'ont jamais été aperçues en surface. Quant au pont en bois, aucun morceau n'a été repêché. Un simple sac de ciment avait suffi à boucher le pic avant du cargo. Aucune analyse de peinture sur la coque du cargo n'a été effectuée.
Aux Caraïbes, l'US Army Air Force avait basé, après l'attaque de Pearl Harbor, deux escadrilles, la 6ème (bombardement lourd) et la 3ème (bombardement).
À 07H13, le 19 février, le quartier général signala à la base d'attaquer un sous-marin dans le carreau R-13, soit à quelques 50 nautiques de Panama. À ce moment, le SURCOUF se trouvait entre 30 et 50 nautiques de Panama, selon sa vitesse, protégé par son sanctuaire (une bande de 15 nautiques sur chaque bord et 120 nautiques à l'avant et à l'arrière de sa route). Ignorant cette restriction, les trois avions (deux A-17 et un B-18) attaquèrent un « very large submarine » avec huit bombes de 50 kg. Le premier avion (pilote STALEY) rapporta qu'il l'avait observé, bas sur l'eau, comme sur le point de plonger, et ayant lancé ses quatre bombes, estima qu'il l'avait touché et, tournant pendant dix minutes, le vit disparaître (déclaration de STALEY en 1990, confirmée par le journal de la 3ème escadrille). Selon les habitants de San Blas (50 nautiques à l'est de Panama), les corps de plusieurs marins furent repêchés sur la côte en février 1942 et enterrés dans le cimetière du village.
L'amiral Émile MUSELIER en accord avec le général Charles DE GAULLE décide de rallier Saint-Pierre & Miquelon à la France Libre.
Le 22 décembre les trois corvettes MIMOSA, ALYSSE, ACONIT & le croiseur sous-marin SURCOUF appareillent d'Halifax (Canada) avec à leur tête l'amiral Émile MUSELIER. L'objectif officiel est de procéder à des exercices.
Le 24 décembre la flotte arrive l'entrée du port de Saint-Pierre.
L'amiral Émile MUSELIER décide d'entrer dans le port. Le SURCOUF restera en rade en raison de son grand tirant d'eau. L'ALYSSE s'amarrera à l'extérieur, à l'appontement frigorifique afin de pouvoir y organiser une tête de pont en cas de difficultés. Le MIMOSA et l'ACONIT accosteront à l'intérieur.
Les ordres sont précis. Il ne doit pas être fait usage des armes sauf en cas d'absolue nécessité et de légitime défense. D'ailleurs, à part quelques irréductibles, une grande majorité de la population est favorable au ralliement des îles à la France Libre.
En Grande-Bretagne en juillet et août 1940 Étienne SCHLUMBERGER tente de persuader les marins français rassemblés par les anglais dans des camps près de Liverpool de continuer le combat.
Lors de l'expédition de Tentative de ralliement du Sénégal, il fait parti, le 23 Septembre 1940, de l'équipe des parlementaires conduite par le commandant Georges Thierry D'ARGENLIEU. La vedette à bord de laquelle il a pris place est atteinte de plusieurs balles : le commandant Georges Thierry D'ARGENLIEU est blessé. Il tente ensuite de débarquer à Rufisque (Sénégal), au cours d'une riposte de la terre, trois de ses hommes sont tués.
Le COMMANDANT DUBOC amène le général Charles DE GAULLE à Douala le 8 Octobre. Il embarque sur le SAVORGNAN DE BRAZZA avec le commandant Georges Thierry D'ARGENLIEU pour le Gabon : le BOUGAINVILLE, aviso de « Vichy », qui avait ouvert le feu, est malheureusement détruit le 09 Novembre. Il contribue au ralliement de Port-Gentil (Gabon).
En Janvier 1941 il remplace comme officier en second le lieutenant de vaisseau Georges ROSSIGNOL désigné pour le SURCOUF. Ce dernier disparaîtra avec le SURCOUF.
Le COMMANDANT DUBOC part en mission en mer rouge : Massawa (Érythrée) est prise le 17 Avril 1941. Il retourne ensuite vers la Grande Bretagne par La Cap. Lors de l'escorte d'un convoi entre Freetown (Sierra Léone) et Gibraltar (Espagne), le 22 Septembre, le cargo SILVER BELL ne peut être sauvé.
• les 23 et 24 Octobre 1941 le COMMANDANT DUBOC parvient à sauver soixante dix-sept rescapés.
• le 17 Novembre débarquement d'armes et de matériel radio à MEFJORD dans l'île de SENJA.
Le 25 Mars 1943, il prend le commandement du sous-marin JUNON. Le 12 Mai 1944, il part pour l'AFRIQUE du Nord. La JUNON est désarmée à Oran (Algérie) le 11 Août.
En Novembre 1944 il est nommé au commandement du sous-marin MORSE, en armement, cédé par les Anglais. Il rentre en FRANCE en Janvier 1945. Il fait partie de l'État-Major de l'amiral Nord.
Après la capitulation de l'Allemagne, il entre au Haut Commissariat en Indochine comme chef du bureau fédéral de documentation. Il est nommé directeur des études à l'ÉCOLE NAVALE. Il commande le SÉNÉGALAIS puis le KLEBER.
Il quitte la Marine en 1953 avec le grade de capitaine de frégate.
Son pire souvenir est en arrivant à Alger (Algérie) avec le sous-marin JUNON, on refuse de lui serrer la main devant le front des troupes lors des cérémonies officielles.

Given Name Yoshio
Born 1 Nov 1923
ww2dbaseYoshio Shinozuka was born in Chiba Prefecture, Japan in 1923 as the second of five children. In Feb 1939, at the age of 15, he passed the examination for assignment with Unit 731, the Japanese Army's human experimentation program located in northeastern China, and arrived in Harbin, China in May 1939. As a junior member of the team, he assisted in the care of various bacteria samples. Between Oct 1942 and Jan 1943, he personally took part in experiments and vivisections involving seven Chinese civilians. In Mar 1943, he was released from Unit 731 and served in various roles with the Kwangtung Army in China from Mar 1944 until the end of the war. He remained in northeastern China after the war to assist in keeping peace until Chinese forces could re-occupy northeastern China. In Feb 1946, he was arrested by Chinese communist partisans. The Chinese communists initially thought he was an ordinary Army medic, and thus forced him to train communist counterparts, and then forced him to lecture at the Tianjin Medical University. In 1953, he admitted that he was a member of Unit 731, and the Chinese communists detained him at the Fushun War Criminals Management Center in Liaoning, China. He was released in Jun 1956 and was sent back to Japan. In 1984, he apologized for his participation in Unit 731. In 1997, he gave testimony on the activities of Unit 731 on behalf of 180 Chinese who were suing the Japanese government for compensation and apology; he said "I was a member of Unit 731 and I have done what no human being should ever do." In 1998, he was scheduled to give a speech at a peace conference in the United States and Canada, but he was denied entry at the O'Hare International Airport in Chicago, Illinois, United States for being a war criminal. He passed away in 2014.

Background: You are utilizing the Universal Worklist and presently have configured a substitution rule which is no longer valid e.g. the assignee is no longer with the company. Despite you're best efforts you seem not to be able to delete or remove the substitution rule.
Errors: With such an occurrence exceptions can be quite generic and may sometimes grammatically appears as "Cannot Connect to Provider " or "Problems Reported (Repairable).
When substitution is invoked on the Manage Substitution UI, it happens for all connectors. So if you have 7 systems set up in the Universal Worklist Administration there will be 7 calls to each respective system to try to invoke a substitution. If there is any issue whatsoever, with the id, password, * etc, substitution will not work and will not be set up.
If you see a link appearing as "Problems Reported (Repairable)" in the rule activation column. Then in this case there is no mapped user to the backend user.
In many cases the reason the "delete" action for substitution is not working properly is because of "problems reported". This means that there is an issue with the connection.
If you are maintaining substitution from the UWL, the rules should *only* be deleted from the UWL. It is not support to mix substitution maintenance between the UWL and the backend.
How to Approach the Removal of a Substitution.
The general method to delete a substitution revolves around checking the entries in Database table KMC_WF_SUBSTITUTE in Portal DB and then subsequently deleting any entries against the user.
So a method of manual deletion must be done for every system that the UWL (Universal Worklist) is connecting to.
Go to System Administration->System Configuration->Universal Worklist & Workflow->Universal Worklist – Administration and for all the R/3 systems that are registered there go and delete the records for substitutions in all the HRUS_D2 tables connected to the deleted users and the user * is experiencing the problem – as substituting and as substituted users.
Delete all the records in the java engine's database table: KMC_WF_SUBSTITUTE, that are connected to the deleted users and the user * is experiencing the problem.
Clear the cache for all system from the Universal Worklist – Administration.

Le , est un groupement de cinq lacs de cratères situé au pied du mont Bandai dans le nord de la préfecture de Fukushima au Japon.

Formation
Le lac Goshiki s'est formé lors de l'éruption du mont Bandai le , détruisant des dizaines de villages et tuant environ  tout en créant des centaines de lacs et de tarn (lac).

L'éruption transforma complètement le paysage, créant le plateau Bandai et barrant les rivières locales. Par ailleurs, l'éruption transmit des gisements minéraux aux cinq lacs colorés donnant à chacun leur propre délicate couleur, allant du vert rougeoyant au bleu cobalt. Les couleurs de chaque lac se modifient mystérieusement tout au long de l'année selon les saisons. Depuis l'éruption, Goshiki-numa est devenu une destination touristique populaire.

Circuit de randonnées
Une promenade d'environ  depuis le lac Bishamon, le plus grand des cinq lacs, jusqu'au Lac Hibara présente une vue sur l'ensemble des lacs.

Supporters want more Sound Transit lines; cost questions remain
Seattle to Portland in an hour: WSDOT releases results of ultra-high-speed transportation study
By: KIRO 7 News Staff
Supporters of the Sound Transit Link light rail network are pitching a new public vote in 2024 – one they hope will extend light rail to areas including Lake City, Shoreline, White Center, Sand Point, Georgetown and South Park.
"The only way to avoid short-changing the potential of our investments in ST3, including a brand-new downtown subway tunnel, is to plan ahead with a Seattle-focused ST4 plan," a release from the volunteer pro-transit group Seattle Subway reads.
The total costs for a potential Sound Transit 4 plan are unclear.
In 2016, voters approved a $53.8 billion Sound Transit 3 package – the largest voter-approved measure in state history. The property tax, car-tab and sales-tax increases are expected to last at least three decades. See KIRO 7's previous coverage of Sound Transit 3 below.
The costs are already more than expected, in part because estimates for the West Seattle to Ballard project was done in 2014 without adjusting for inflation. Follow this link to see details of those overruns, which could be as much as $2 billion.
