text:
Sam Arnull (c. 1760 – 1800) was a British flat racing jockey of the 18th century.  He won the inaugural running of Britain's foremost flat race, The Derby, on Diomed, one of the most influential horses in Thoroughbred history, and won again on a further three occasions.

Career

Arnull hailed from a family of jockeys that dominated British horse racing in the latter part of the 18th century and early 19th. He was the younger brother of John Arnull and uncle of Bill Arnull. Between them, the family won twelve Derbies in the race's formative years. He himself won four of them – 1780 (Diomed), 1782 (Assassin), 1787 (Sir Peter Teazle), 1798 (Sir Harry) – as well as an Oaks on Hermione in 1794.  Such was their dominance that "Newmarket [the home of British racing] without an Arnull would ... have seemed strange"

Sam was described as a "quiet and unassuming man" and was a man of some means, being able to ride out at hunts on well-turned out horses, with a well-dressed groom. He and his family were known for being more trustworthy than other jockeys of the day.

Although his brother won more Derbies, Sam was perhaps the better of the two; when he died in 1800 he "is supposed not to have left a better" His dedication to the sport was certainly undoubted.  For example, in spite of the fact he found that "wasting was a sore burden ... [he] performed the unrivalled feat of knocking off 7 lbs in a single day" to meet the weight for a horse he wanted to ride.

1780 Derby

The inaugural running of the Derby was low key compared to the event which it was to become.  At the time it merited but a small notice in the London Evening Post of 6 May 1780 but in retrospect was said to have "fairly caught hold on the public imagination".

Arnull is said to have been seen going to post wearing:

His main rival in the race was Colonel O'Kelly's Boudrow, also recorded as Budroo, who came in second.  Diomed, owned by Sir Charles Bunbury, won at odds of 6/4. The breeches that Arnull wore on the day now hang inside the Jockey Club.

At Nottingham the following year, suspicion turned on Arnull when Diomed lost to what was considered "a very far inferior horse", losing Bunbury a large sum of money.  The defeat sickened Bunbury and was a factor in Diomed's retirement.

Death
Arnull died in Newmarket in 1800. His death notice declared that "he is supposed not to leave a better behind him."

Q: React state change not showing changes when going back I have an app that lists books on a users shelf and then on a subsequent search page.
The user goes to the search page, finds a title and selects a shelf for the title to be shelved on. When they go back to the home page this title should then show on the correct shelf.
The functionality works in that the changes are made to the objects, but when I click on the home button or back button in the browser the changes do not show until I have refreshed the browser.
What do I need to do to ensure this change is shown when the user browses to the home page?
I've put the bulk of the code into Codesandbox
App.js
import React, { Component } from 'react'
import ListBooks from './ListBooks'
import SearchBooks from './SearchBooks'
import * as BooksAPI from './utils/BooksAPI'
import { Route } from 'react-router-dom'

class BooksApp extends Component {

  state = {
    books: []
  }

  componentDidMount() {
    BooksAPI.getAll()
    .then((books) => {
      this.setState(() => ({
        books
      }))
    })
  }

  updateShelf = (book, shelf) => {
    const bookFromState = this.state.books.find(b => b.id === book.id);
    if (bookFromState) {
      // update existing
      bookFromState.shelf = shelf;
      this.setState(currentState => ({
        books: currentState.books
      }));
    } else {
      // add new one
      this.setState(prevState => ({
        books: prevState.books
      }));
    }
    BooksAPI.update(book, shelf);
  };

  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        <Route exact path='/' render={() => (
          <ListBooks
          books={this.state.books}
          onUpdateShelf={this.updateShelf}
          />
        )} />
        <Route exact path='/search' render={() => (
          <SearchBooks
          books={this.state.books}
          onUpdateShelf={this.updateShelf}
          />
        )} />
      </div>
    )
  }
}
export default BooksApp

A: So I checked your code. You had problem updating your state actually. The books wasn't changing after you selected a book from within the search screen. Here's the code from your App.js:
updateShelf = (book, shelf) => {
  console.log(book, shelf)
  const bookFromState = this.state.books.find(b => b.id === book.id);
  if (bookFromState) {
    // update existing
    bookFromState.shelf = shelf;
    this.setState(currentState => ({
      books: currentState.books
    }));
  } else {
    // add new one
    // the following lines of yours were different
      book.shelf = shelf;
      this.setState(prevState => ({
        books: prevState.books.concat(book)
    }));
  }
  BooksAPI.update(book, shelf);
};

So you merely had books: prevState.books instead of actually concatenating the book to the prev state. And just before that the shelf of book has to be changed to the one you pass.
PS: I might have left some console.log statements. Hope that is not a problem and you will clean the mess.

Amanda Bynes hasn't starred in a film since Easy A in 2010, but the actress has found herself making lots of headlines lately after questionable behavior and a series of run-ins with police.
The actress, 26, who has been charged with a DUI and two counts of hit-and-run, has been spotted acting increasingly erratically over the last several months, including "bizarre" behavior at her gym, according to a source, and being involved in a string of car accidents.
Although Bynes doesn't seem bothered by her legal drama, others who know her are, according to sources.
And Bynes's friends are not the only ones worried. The star's parents have relocated from Texas to Los Angeles to be near her, according to TMZ.
Just this week, the former Nickelodeon star appeared "a mess," according to an onlooker who saw her working out at Equinox gym in West Hollywood on Tuesday evening.
Bynes, who spent the next few minutes adjusting her bra and hair extensions, then picked up her Louis Vuitton handbag and "pulled out her makeup kit and started reapplying her lipstick and eyeliner while looking at herself in the large mirror in front of her," the onlooker says.
After doing her makeup for approximately 10 minutes, Bynes put her shirt back on, picked up her things and left.
And Bynes's trouble doesn't stop there. On Wednesday her attorney, Richard Hutton, appeared in a Beverly Hills courthouse where the judge denied a $50,000 bail request from prosecutors for her April DUI arrest. At the hearing, however, the judge said if Bynes breaks any road rules going forward, a high but unspecified bail amount will be imposed, according to TMZ.
Bynes's lawyer did not return a request for comment.


It is a long-held perception that America is a nation where the government typically stays out of day-to-day business activities. Yet the U.S. federal government is in many ways the biggest and most influential financial institution in the world, with $10 trillion in federal guarantees and loans going to the private sector. Even before recent implementation of massive interventions meant to stave off financial calamity, the federal government directly or indirectly provided significantly more credit than any of the country's largest private sector banks. And, of course, the government's credit activities have recently expanded far beyond this core of traditional programs in the face of economic crisis. What does the true picture of this sector look like, and how does it affect the overall economy?
Uncle Sam in Pinstripes is an accessible primer on U.S. federal lending, providing an instructive look at one of the most important interfaces between the U.S. government and its citizens as well as the transactions that result. Douglas Elliott's introductory chapter makes clear the critical importance of federal credit programs and hints at some of their complexities. The remainder of this book fills in the details—the how, what, why, and the ramifications—allowing readers of all stripes to understand the history, current state, and key policy issues surrounding federal credit provision. No picture of the U.S. economy is complete without a fuller understanding of this increasingly important sector.
• Target borrowers more carefully. • Take into account more fully the relative risk of different loans. • Use the same budget rules for all federal credit programs. • Use risk-based discount rates for federal budget purposes. • Create a federal bank to administer all credit programs.

The 1912 Imperial Block in Vermilion
It was not until 1902 that a significant number of settlers arrived in this area of Alberta, mostly of British ethnic background coming from the east. Just west of Vermilion is the line between British and those of Ukrainian ethnic background having travelled mostly from the west.
In 1904, a post office was established at Breage approximately 5 km (3.1 mi) east of the present townsite.[4]
In 1905, the Canadian Northern Railway arrived and a station was built. The post office was relocated from Breage. Throughout the days of steam, the railway was important to Vermilion. Vermilion was used as a divisional point. It had a water tower to resupply engines, a large roundhouse, an extensive yard, a wye, a turntable, and a bunkhouse for engine crews. With the decline of steam power in the late 1950s and early 1960s, the railway became less important.
In early 1906, Vermilion was incorporated as a village and then as a town later in the same year. The name Vermilion comes from the red clay found in the river valley. In fact, one of the first businesses in Vermilion was the brick factory which operated from 1906 until 1914. Some Vermilion buildings built from brick from this factory are still standing.
The first newspaper to publish in the Vermilion area was the Vermilion Signal which was founded and edited by William Bleasdell Cameron. (a survivor of the Frog Lake Massacre).[5] In 1909, S.R.P. Cooper established the Vermilion Standard, which continues to publish to this day.
In 1911, the provincial government established three demonstration farms near Olds, Fairview, and just west of the Vermilion townsite. The Vermilion Board of Trade had lobbied the government for a demonstration farm and or college. When the Vermilion School of Agriculture officially opened on November 17, 1913, it became the first of the provincial agricultural colleges to open its door. The Vermilion School of Agriculture has had several name changes in the intervening years including Vermilion Agricultural and Vocational College and Vermilion College before becoming Lakeland College in 1975.[citation needed]
Looking northeast along 49th Avenue, 1912
Like other communities on the prairies in the early years of the 20th century, Vermilion experienced an extensive fire. Occurring on April 10, 1918, the fire destroyed 28 stores and business blocks.[4]
Two Vermilion businesses have operated since before the town was incorporated. Craig's, a department store, and Long's, a drugstore, have been at the same downtown locations since 1905.[citation needed]
The population of the Town of Vermilion according to its 2017 municipal census is 4,150,[6] a change of −8.7% from its 2012 municipal census population of 4,545.[7]
In the 2016 Census of Population conducted by Statistics Canada, the Town of Vermilion recorded a population of 4,084 living in 1,753 of its 1,988 total private dwellings, a 3.9% change from its 2011 population of 3,930. With a land area of 12.93 km2 (4.99 sq mi), it had a population density of 315.9/km2 (818.1/sq mi) in 2016.[2]
In the 2011 Census, the Town of Vermilion had a population of 3,930 living in 1,651 of its 1,845 total dwellings, a -2.6% change from its 2006 population of 4,036. With a land area of 13.69 km2 (5.29 sq mi), it had a population density of 287.1/km2 (743.5/sq mi) in 2011.[8]
The economy is largely service industry to agriculture.
Arts and culture[edit]
The Vermilion Agricultural Society hosts an annual fair which started in 1906. The fair begins with a parade on Thursday morning. The fair lasts a total of three days the last weekend in July.[9]
Attractions[edit]
The Vermilion Provincial Park is located on the northwest side of the town. It includes camping, fishing, canoeing and trails for hiking, cycling and cross-country skiing.[10]
The town has two public schools: Vermilion Elementary (K-6) and J.R. Robson Secondary (7-12), and one Catholic school, St. Jerome's School[11] (K-12). The School of Hope, a home school, has its central office in Vermilion.[citation needed]
The town also attracts students from throughout Canada to Lakeland College.[12] Lakeland offers certificate, diploma, applied degree, university transfer, apprenticeship, and pre-employment programs. Programming at the Vermilion campus includes agricultural sciences, business, environmental sciences, fire and emergency response, human services, interior design technology, and trades and technology. Lakeland's residence village is home to more than 500 students.
Vermilion's local weekly newspapers are the Vermilion Standard[13] and the Vermilion and Area Voice.[14]

LeAnn Rimes: Eddie Cibrian and I Are "Talking" About a TV Show
By Allison Takeda and Travis Cronin
LeAnn Rimes tells Us Weekly that she and husband Eddie Cibrian are "talking" about a scripted comedy based on their lives. Araya Diaz/WireImage.com
LeAnn Rimes is done with the drama. After four emotionally draining years of public feuding and personal struggles, she's more than ready for a little lighthearted comedy — which is exactly what she and husband Eddie Cibrian are hoping to create. Speaking to Us Weekly recently about her new album (Spitfire) and her plans for the future, the 30-year-old "Where I Stood" singer revealed that she and Cibrian, 39, are "in talks" to develop their own sitcom.
PHOTOS: LeAnn and Eddie's controversial romance
"We've been talking about a show," she told Us of the project. "It's not a reality show. If anything, it would be based around our normal lives, but it would be scripted. We want to take our lives and laugh as much at ourselves as we think other people do."
Rimes — who married Cibrian in 2011, two years after the couple met and fell in love while still married to other people — said that she hoped the series would also be an opportunity for her to set the record straight about her relationship with her husband.
PHOTOS: Stars caught cheating
"I think people think we take ourselves so seriously, and it would be fun to be able to play with it, make fun of it, and have fun," she explained. "Everyone seems to think they know who we are, but to be able to show that — but not have it be a reality show where cameras follow us around 24/7 — would be so fun."
PHOTOS: LeAnn's skimpiest bikinis
"It would be taking our regular life and elaborating on it to make it really over the top and funny," she added. "After all these years of having stuff thrown at us, it would be great to laugh at it all."
Us Weekly first reported that Rimes and Cibrian were developing a sitcom back in April. At the time, sources said the two were "shopping around a scripted comedy based on their lives together," in which they would play "versions of themselves, kind of like on Curb Your Enthusiasm." One insider said there would also be a "crazy ex-wife" character based on Cibrian's former spouse Brandi Glanville.
PHOTOS: Women who've been cheated on
"They've met with a few networks," a second source told Us of the couple. "Nothing is finalized yet, but they're seeing where the show could go."


It is 50" LED, very user-friendly, great picture. I am 100% solar so I am very energy use conscious, it is very frugal on energy use. My previous flat screen just was a power sucker even when off, we had to put it on a surge strip and turn off the power. This one is great, the only feature we cannot use is the internet option. We are in satellite internet so we have a limited amount of bandwidth compared to cable. Great overall value. Very happy with it.
The TV was too big for the room, the bulbs needed to be replaced periodically, and I was the one who had to order and install the new bulbs. Please consider the maintenance required (if any now) on a TV, the SIZE of TV and where to put it before you bring it home.
Our JVC TV was probably the best television we've ever purchased. It lasted many, many years and we'd not hesitate to purchase another.
We replaced a broken Magnavox with a new JVC television of the same 42" size for economic reasons (it was on sale). The JVC has as good a picture but the sound quality has us trying different equalizer settings constantly. To be fair, it can be difficult to tell whether the audio engineer on a movie or TV program should not be in the business at all or that the TV just has 1) bad speakers, 2) bad audio card in general, or 3) both of the former. And the combination of bad unenforced FCC guidelines for TV sound and commercials that can blow one out of the room without muting them entirely having the audio "headroom" or amount of good, listenable audio smashed up against a tech ceiling that distorts the sound badly further clouds this issue.
After some serious note-taking, it became obvious that most audio engineering in the business both television and cinematic has been relegated to a cheap, idiot brother-in-law rather than someone that has actually passed a hearing test and can at least read a spectrum analyzer. The television itself is also not without some of the blame. When watching a music program, we find it prudent to mute the third-rate audio provisions in the TV and run the audio through the Cerwin Vega stereo house system. Television manufactures in general do not give due consideration to the sound, just the picture. But the truly terrible deaf-eggs that make up the bulk of those in the industry doing most of the audio mixes need to go away.
Our JVC is over 10 years old and works great. It has a 35" screen. It is heavy so we don't move it much. When it no longer works, we will replace it with a flat screen HDTV.
How do I know I can trust these reviews about JVC?
JVC used to be a good brand in analog TVs. We have one almost 20 yrs old still working. This LCD TV just stopped working. This is a bedroom TV 32-inch which probably has less than a month's actual viewing time on it. We just do not use it that often. These TV are not worth fixing unless under warranty even if you could get someone to work on them. I think we will stick to Samsung from now on.
We have had our smart tv for a year and we have had this issue since the beginning. Regardless of what we are watching we encounter the same issue. The speaking volume will be fine then when any other sound comes on it gets extremely loud. It is very frustrating having to hold the remote in our hands and adjust the volume every few seconds.
In August 2014, I purchased a 42 inch JVC television and it went blank in February 2015. I was advised to Innovation Group as it was under warranty, they sent their technicians to pick the TV in March and was sent to Ital Video cc for repairs. After 6 weeks, I was told that there is no spare in the country for this Tv and they are waiting for the power supply from overseas. I call Innovation Group end of May, I was told the Tv is lying at one of their centers as it is not repairable. It was only send back to me on 29 May with instruction that I must take back the TV to the store for replacement. Public, beware! There is serious problem with this product. Once broken, no one wants to carry responsibility. There is no support services, no spares for it. My repair job no. **.
Remote control/TV does what it wants. Everything about the functions is designed to cause the utmost annoyance. I will never purchase such a ill conceived appliance again.
I purchased the tv last week and a week later I'm still staring at pink dashes on the bottom half of my screen. The retail store I bought it from says I have to go through the warranty. It's 10 days later and I'm still waiting for a tech to fix it.
I purchased a JVC 37 inch TV from HSN in April 2012 for my husband. We had no problem with it until we was watching it in February of 2014 and the screen went blank but the sound was still working. We thought it was a bulb so we contacted HSN and was referred to JVC. They were not helpful at all and could not find the product in their system. We took it to a local shop and was informed that it was the main board. We purchased that part and then was told that is not the problem. We were told that the display panel in is not working and it will cost $1200 to repair. That is double what I paid for it. I have never had a TV that stopped working after such a short period of time. I have emailed JVC and I am waiting to hear from them. I believe that the TV is defective.
I have had this 2005 jvc hd projector screen for a while. Recently it broke and I'm stumped. I have taken out the lamp ballast and it's brand new. I have no idea where the fuses are. I'd hate to get rid of this tv but I still can't get it to work. Anyone know of the locations of the fuses, lemme know. Thanks.
For starters, I purchased this set in 2005... It is now nearly 2014. I have been totally happy with MY set... I have replaced the lamp 3 times at no more than $50 a pop, online... It has always had the most beautiful color.... 6 mos. ago my sound went out so I got a sound system... I feel so sorry for those who had such problems. Just saying not all JVC's are bad... PS... I use this set nearly 12 hrs a day... every day, so I don't think 3 lamps in 9 yrs is all that bad!!!
We got our tv and ever since from beginning, if the power goes out, the tv won't turn back on until the next day. I tried unplugging and waiting and using the tv power button but nothing. I will never get another JVC tv again.
I have a JVC loader version lLT-32de9bj model TV. I am unable to record a full program. Set it to record, it does so for perhaps half an hour and that's your lot. I have spent 100 of pounds trying to have it fixed but none of the TV experts have succeeded. Some say it's the hard drive, other say there is a modification. Anyone offer any help?
Purchased a JVC 24 inch led TV 2 years ago for the kitchen and have been more than happy with it. Recently bought a Toshiba 24 inch led TV for the guest bedroom but not a patch on the JVC, so I got my money back and paid another tenner for a second JVC TV. Fantastic picture quality on the JVC (as was the Toshiba), but where the JVC scores is in the sound quality (the sound of the Toshiba was awful and suffered from a continuous buzzing sound at low volume levels). Would recommend JVC TVs.
I bought a 39" JVC TV at Costco which boldly advertised that it came with a Roku Streaming Stick installed. The Roku stick was wonky right away and soon did not work at all. The technician was not given a Roku stick, only a main board, which when replaced made it clear that it was the Roku stick (cable and DVD still worked). I went and bought a Roku Stick myself so I wouldn't have to start the process all over (JVC is very slow to return phone calls so it took over a week to even set up an appointment) and now they will not reimburse me for the Roku Stick, which they should have given the technician to bring. I have spent HOURS dealing with this. I would not buy from JVC again.
Purchase JVC TV at Sam's on 9/23/12. It stop working on 12/7/13. They pick up and had it for 4 weeks and return it and it stop working on 5/19 /4 again. They still have it. It is 6/21/14 and have not call to tell us what they are going to do. I am out two months at $80.00 and still no TV.
Purchased television 2006, light bulb works for about 2 years and felt the same as everyone else. Replace bulb and it lasted about 3 months and I put the television the way up until recently not at the balls are affordable and tried again and with the same result, cloudy and barely able to see picture. Not worth the trouble. Shame on you JVC.
I called customer service to get some help. I advised them that the color blue is out. What shall I do? The representative asked me the part number before he could help me. I told him I don't know. I was told by a repairman that the blue bloc was going and needs to be replaced. According to the technician, it would cost $1300.00 (thirteen hundred dollars) to repair. I wanted the representative to give me the price of the item. He directed me to a JVC technician near me in San Antonio, TX. I think a big ticket item should be honored by the manufacture. I know some parts have to be replaced, but I think the electronic part that control the colors, which is three separate part, the company should replace and I pay the labor. The part that need to be replace, in my opinion is defective. The TV is a JVC HD/ila, model number is hd-56g787. I don't have a picture. What shall I do. Thanks.
Light engine died after only 7 years. Poor quality, ** support. Don't deal with these weasels.
These are the worst. The remote control works sometimes and because of that, we cannot operate the input buttons when my husband mistakenly hits the wrong buttons on the TV itself. (My husband thought he hit the power button, but hit the channel button instead. Now, it won't work at all.) I've never seen anything like it before. Never again.
JVC post-service is so bad! I sent them the Marshmallow Remote + Mic headphones (HA-FR36) on the same day that I bought it. After they claimed that there was no problem found in the first few weeks, they called me that they found the interference problem when sending and receiving WhatsApp message and emails. However, they said they can't do anything and not going to refund! So what's the aim to set up the warranty? Never buy JVC products! Otherwise, you'll gonna suffer.
We purchased our 52 HD ILA TV back in 2005. At the time, it seemed like the best picture and option. We loved the TV and still do. I stumbled on this site after we just got a little spot on the screen and was trying to figure it out. After reading all of the bulb complaints, I hate to say this but it is the operator's fault and not JVC. In almost 8 years now, we have only replaced the bulb 2 times, with the latest about 2 months ago. It only costs about $90, about 2 minutes to put it in.
It clearly states in the manual that if you turn your TV off, you cannot immediately turn it back on or it will damage the bulb. You have to wait - I think it is 5 minutes. So if the power goes out or you turned it off and changed your mind, just wait a few minutes and you won't have any troubles. It's not really fair to blame JVC for premature bulb failure. When you replace it, you also cannot touch the bulb with your fingers; it will quickly ruin it. Same as with a halogen bulb. So if you keep having issues, take note of these 2 things and you should not have more problems.
Do not buy a JVC Procision projector! I am a home builder and I have professionals install media rooms for my houses. We purchased two JVC DLA-X7 for the media rooms and both of them are defective. JVC has horrible customer support. You either are holding on the phone for 45 minutes or you are listening to people's voice mails. We paid an average of $6,000.00 per unit!
Lamp on a 61" DLP TV - It seems that everyone that has a JVC TV has had this recurring problem. I have had to replace the $250.00 lamp every year I've had the set. This year, I replaced it with a 65" LED 3D TV and by the way, it isn't a JVC. Sorry JVC, but your products just don't cut it anymore. I suggest anyone thinking of buying any JVC product to not buy JVC unless you want to be $100.00 to death. Their products are very unreliable and don't last long without expensive repairs.
I had to replace the lamp kit for the 4th time since 2006, and the pictures keep getting darker and darker. There's no way to adjust it myself; the only option is to have it repaired, which is never going to happen! I don't repair TVs. What a joke to even think people would. Nor will I ever purchase another JVC. I purchased a cheap TV (less then $200.00) 20+ years ago (Symphonic) which I have never had a problem with. The worst thing that has ever happened to this TV was I have to dust it off once a week. Hello JVC, get where I'm coming from yet!
My advice to anyone, never buy a TV for which you have to replace a lamp kit, bulb, etc. It's a never-ending task, and you'll end up having major repairs. Sad part is that JVC is aware of this problem and does nothing about it. Shame on you JVC! Why would I want an attorney to contact me about my complaint? What are they going to tell me? Should have checked out the TV before you bought it! I don't even want JVC to contact me. I'm finished with them!
I, too, have owned my 52-inch JVC LCD TV for about 3 years. I have changed the bulb 3 times and I am waiting on the fourth (as a replacement). The third one is only 3 months old. With the current price of flat screen TVs, it does not pay to attempt to fix or buy any more bulbs. I would not buy or recommend JVC products in the future.
Again, like I am finding out, I replaced bulb for the 3rd time since 2006. Not too bad. Three days later, the light engine went out. Over $900.00 to fix. Then I found out the parts can't be purchased anymore. I paid over $2000.00 in December 6. That's $500.00 per year. JVC will do nothing. I purchased a new Samsung.
Please do not buy JVC TVs because the projection bulb will continue to burn out and cost you hundreds of dollars to repair.

Ray White backs 'end-to-end' proptech platform
Larry SchlesingerReporter
Feb 5, 2020 – 5.02pm
Ray White has pumped $3 million in a new "end-to-end" proptech platform that uses data, automation and market intelligence to help agents generate leads, market themselves better to vendors and improve the overall performance of their businesses.
The platform, known as NurtureCloud, was developed over the past three years by Adam Rigby, the founder of fast-growing fixed-fee agency Upside Realty, and tested and used by Upside agents.
Ray White's investment will give the country's biggest real estate agency a 50 per cent stake in NurtureCloud, which it plans to customise and roll out in stages across its franchise network.
Investing in proptech: Dan White with Adam Rigby. Steven Siewert
The enterprise-level platform combines the functions of customer relationship management, marketing and lead generation into an app on an agent's phone.
For vendors, it gives them access to an online dashboard, which provides real time information on the progress of their sale.
Ray White managing director Dan White will take on the role of chairman of NurtureCloud with Mr Rigby remaining as chief executive.
Mr White told The Australian Financial Review one of the appealing aspects of the platform was that it had been developed and tested at the "coalface".
"We get a lot of proptech offerings coming across our desk. Most of it comes from tech businesses that operate outside of the agency world and want to be all things to all people. This offering tracks very close to the agency process," Mr White said.
"It puts agents at the centre of everything. It improves their engagement with customers, helps them generate and prioritise leads and helps them market themselves better, including through social media.
"It digitalises the relationship with customers, but still requires the direct personal connection."
Mr Rigby, whose Upside Realty has taken over from Purplebricks as the country's leading fixed-fee agency, said he had taken a "holistic" approach to developing NurtureCloud.
"It touches on all aspects of what an agent does everyday," he said.
He said bringing Ray White onboard gave the start-up a partner with "not only scale, but who are actually quite technologically ahead of most of their competitors".
"It's the beginning of a journey and partnership. Our desire is to roll it out both locally and abroad," Mr Rigby said

I was a tiny little one when I used to see mom's come to school to feed their children during lunch break. A plastic basket filled with rice, sambhar, curd, vegetables and fried poppadum's. Yes, to most it would seem preposterous but I saw it every single day during the five years I studied from 1st to the 5th standard in the 90s of Bangalore. (And yes, it will always be Bangalore for me).
At that time, I was thankful to God that my mom didn't do the same. I felt independent. I was not a mumma's boy. I carried my own tiffin and ate it myself too.
When after two decades, I moved on my own to study in Mumbai, I fell in love with street food. Bhel, vada pau, pau bhaji and the works. But as the months passed by, the true blue Indian son in me started poking inside.
Through STD calls made after 9pm from public telephones, I would talk to my mom back home only about food. The hostel mess was a mess, sorry for the pun. While my dad was worried about my academic progress and my pocket money, mom was worried about my health because of my gastronomical misadventures.
And one day, she mentioned that my uncle was coming to Mumbai and if I needed anything? Before I could say anything she herself mentioned a laundry list of food items she was sending.
Next morning, I woke up at 4.30am and reached Bombay Central station at sharp 4.55am to receive my uncle. As soon as he waved to me from the S1 boogie, I ran towards him. He gathered his luggage, removed my parcel and rushed to grab a kaali peeli as he had an early morning business meeting.
And what did I do? Well, I just sat on the station bench, opened the parcel and smelt mom ke haath ka khaana. I could smell the ghee in the parantha's, the mustard in the ghar ka achar, the spice in the aloo ki sabzi.
Tears rolled down my eyes as I took the first bite. Mom ke haatho ka jadoo…this is what I was missing. And from that day, I was proud to be called a mumma's boy.


Set about five years after the first film, a pregnant Sophie (Amanda Seyfried), who is in a similar position her mother was, is preparing for the grand opening of the Bella Donna hotel in honour of her mum (Meryl Streep) when she learns all about her past.
Another gorgeous sun drenched backdrop, the original cast, Abba's glorious (remaining) greatest hits and the legendary Cher singing Fernando to the Hispanic silver fox Andy Garcia.
What is there not to love about this second helping of uplifting unadulterated slice of happiness and joy?
Plus writer director Ol Parker – not Oliver Parker, who made the recent Swimming With Men – has very cleverly made a prequel within a sequel, which is no mean feat. It will have you dancing and laughing in the aisles one moment and then moved to tears the next (particularly in one key moment) as the action moves from the present to the past and vice versa throughout, during the course of which it also explores motherhood and the need for young women to assert themselves and their independence.
So the film initially takes you back to 1979 and young Donna's (Lily James) graduation ceremony from Oxford University in which she bursts into a show stopping "When I Kissed the Teacher," in front of Abba's Bjorn Ulvaeus playing a University professor, which sets the tone for the rest of the movie.
Waterloo gets its very own dance number as young Harry (Hugh Skinner who has a striking resemblance to James' real life other half Matt Smith) performs it to win over Donna.
While Dancing Queen is the anthem of the flotilla of boats (Dunkirk style) which brings Sophie's long awaited hotel guests, including her dads Harry (Colin Firth) and Bill (Stellan Skarsgard) mimicking the Titanic's "King of the World" scene, to the island (the stunning Croatian island of Vis doubling for the Greek one). It is one of the most surreal and yet joyous moments in the film.
The charming and charismatic James is a revelation, delivering a powerhouse performance as she channels Streep. Her acapella rendition of Mamma Mia, before it turns into a full blown spectacular number alongside the young Dynamos (Jessica Keenan Wynn and Alexa Davies) is exquisite.
Thankfully Brosnan, who makes a welcome return, isn't required to sing this time round.
Of course there is a hilarious post credit scene which is definitely worth the wait, as stand up comedian Omid Djalili, who plays a beleaguered passport checker, bursts into "Take a Chance on Me," which you should all take on this movie.
I defy even the greatest of cynics not to be won over (okay raise a smile) by this uber upbeat, feel good, Abba-licious, heart-warming sequel. A much needed antidote to our current worrying times.

Why Fracking Is a Breast Cancer Issue
By Karuna Jaggar
Most people consider fracking a climate change issue. They are able to make the connection between a potent greenhouse gas like methane and its impact on warming the planet. But methane emission leaks at well sites are only one of the many concerns of the fracking boom. The toxic process also uses more than 700 chemicals, many linked to breast cancer. Fracking threatens the necessities of life, and just as this process drives climate change, it also increases our risk for breast cancer.
So what else does climate change have in common with breast cancer? Both are a growing threat that demands urgent action to prevent irreversible harm.
Breast cancer is a public health crisis. Each year, nearly a quarter of a million women are diagnosed with invasive breast cancer and 40,000 women die of the disease. Disturbingly, the chance a woman will be diagnosed with breast cancer at some point in her lifetime has risen over the last fifty years from 1-in-20 in the 1960s, to 1-in-8 today. And as the incidence of breast cancer has risen, so too has the incidence of other cancers such as liver, thyroid, brain and pancreatic cancers. Adding to the alarm, the incidence of childhood cancers associated with environmental factors is also rising.
Nearly five years ago, the President's Cancer Panel declared they were "particularly concerned to find that the true burden of environmentally induced cancer has been grossly underestimated [and] … the American people—even before they are born—are bombarded continually with myriad combinations of these dangerous exposures." Yet, since this powerful declaration, our federal legislators have failed to act to protect public health.
In truth, we currently live in a toxic soup of chemicals. In the absence of a federally adopted, nationwide, state-enforced precautionary approach to health and environmental safety, how are we to protect ourselves and future generations from breast cancer? Our chemical regulations fail us and need to be strengthened in so many areas: from consumer products to industrial chemicals to medical products to food packaging, to name only a few. And one of the most important and growing pathways of exposure to cancer-linked chemicals that endangers our health and increases our risk of breast cancer is fracking.
Fracking is an extreme form of energy extraction that involves mixing tens of thousands of gallons of chemicals with millions of gallons of water and pumping the mixture underground at extreme pressure to break up rock formations and release oil or natural gas. Despite the dangers inherent in fracking, the industry-friendly Energy Policy Act of 2005 exempts oil and gas industries from more than a dozen environmental regulations, including the federal Clean Water Act, Safe Drinking Water Act and Clean Air Act. What is widely called the Halliburton Loophole to the Safe Drinking Water Act (pushed by Vice President—and former Halliburton CEO—Dick Cheney) allows oil and gas drillers to inject known hazardous materials directly into or adjacent to underground water supplies.

Fracking is growing at a scale and pace that threatens the health of everyone in the U.S. In our highly interconnected world, it is not only the millions of families that live in communities affected by fracking whose health is on the line; we are all at risk of toxic exposures as water is pumped from fracked areas to cities, as fracking in agricultural regions contaminates food put on kitchen tables across the country, and as air carries contaminants in unpredictable and untraceable ways. Unlimited and poorly regulated fracking wells threaten the basic necessities of life: our food, water and air.
Across the U.S., millions of women and families are already at risk for exposure to these chemicals and the health harms that come with them. Tens of thousands of fracking wells have been drilled since 2000—placing more than 15 million people within a mile of a fracking well. And that number will only continue to grow steadily if the oil and gas industry has its way. Environment Americacalculates that there are 82,000 wells in 17 states that have been fracked since 2005. They further calculate that in just 14 states, 22,326 new fracking wells were drilled in 2012.
The oil and gas industry attempts to guard the specific combination of chemicals used in fracking under "trade secrets." But environmental and health activists have been working hard to research and reveal just what, exactly, industry is pumping into the Earth and, by extension, our bodies.
In just the last two years, scientists and researchers published the available science on the environmental and health impacts of fracking, exposing the more than 700 chemicals—including carcinogens, neurotoxins, hormone disruptors, plastics, heavy metals and radioactive agents—that are commonly used in the process of drilling and fracking for oil and gas. Many of these chemicals are associated with breast cancer, as well as a variety of other health harms. Twenty-five percent of the chemicals used in fracking have been linked to cancer. More than a third disrupts the endocrine system. And up to 50 percent of fracking chemicals cause nervous, immune and cardiovascular system problems.
Capitalism, the State and the Drowning of America
Let's consider just one of those chemicals used in the fracking process: benzene, a known carcinogen that has been linked to male breast cancer through occupational exposure. Benzene has been found in the urine of workers exposed to fracking fluid despite the fact that as early as 1948, the American Petroleum Institute's own toxicological review stated that "it is generally considered that the only absolutely safe concentration for benzene is zero" and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has set a maximum contaminant level goal of zero for benzene in drinking water.
Many of the hazardous chemicals used in fracking are not biodegradable, which means that once pumped underground and released into the environment, fracking produces a toxic and radioactive legacy that threatens our health for years to come. There is no safe option for dealing with fracking wastewater. Fracked wells, as well as injection wells used to dispose of toxic wastewater, have already contaminated drinking water and threatened the safety of countless drinking water aquifers. In fall 2014, the Center for Biological Diversity revealed that the oil industry had illegally dumped almost three billion gallons wastewater into central California aquifers that supply drinking water and farming irrigation. And earlier this month the worst fracking wastewater spill in North Dakota since the boom began in the state, leaked 3 million gallons into the river.
While we may not know everything about the long-term health impacts of spills like these, we certainly know enough to take action on fracking. Last month the Governor of New York did just that, announcing a ban on fracking shortly after the release of a long-anticipated study of the health effects of fracking. The acting state health commissioner, Dr. Howard A. Zucker, presented the study at a cabinet meeting, saying there are "significant public health risks" from air pollution and water contamination associated with fracking. Dr. Zucker urged caution, saying he would not want his family to live in a community where fracking takes place: "We cannot afford to make a mistake. The potential risks are too great."
Russia stood up for breastfeeding protection when other countries yielded to US pressure
The reality is: fracking harms the climate and our bodies. We cannot separate one from the other. For women's health activists and environmental activists alike, the time to act is now. We must act together to protect the health of communities affected already and those whose health will be threatened in the future. We need to proactively protect public health before further harm occurs. Before the ban in New York, Environment America estimated there could be as many as 60,000 wells drilled! Today, thanks to the commitment, perseverance and bold action of thousands of activists, New Yorkers have faced down the powerful oil and gas industry. This year, Californiansand other activists across the country are poised to do the same.
The organization that I lead, Breast Cancer Action, was founded 25 years ago by women living with—and dying from—breast cancer who wanted to end the complacency of scientists, government agencies and the general public in the face of an emerging epidemic. They cared about prevention and refused to sit idly by and watch as more and more women got sick. Today, we carry on their fearless and truth-telling legacy.
For all the women exposed to harmful chemicals because they live near a fracked well, we say: Don't frack with our health. For all the breast cancer patients who fear exposure to chemicals that affect their treatments, we say: Don't frack with our health. For all the families concerned about future generations' risk of breast cancer, we say: Don't frack with our health. And for all the women who have lived through a breast cancer diagnosis only to fear the health harms of fracking, we say: Don't frack with our health.

'Freedom Convoy' lawyer sued over Nazi flag claim
December 21, 2022 Canuck
A lawyer who represented "Freedom Convoy" organizers during the public inquiry into the use of the Emergencies Act is being sued for defamation by a Toronto consultant he suggested carried a Nazi flag to the protests in Ottawa on Jan. 29.
Brian Fox and government relations firm Enterprise Canada filed a statement of claim against Calgary lawyer Brendan Miller on Wednesday, calling the allegation "malicious" and "character assassination without foundation and without regard for the impact of his words."
The lawsuit alleges Miller falsely suggested Fox condoned hate associated with the Nazi flag and had engaged in a conspiracy with the Liberal government to discredit the protesters.
During the Public Order Emergency Commission, Miller suggested to witness David Vigneault, director of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, that Fox was the person photographed carrying a flag with a swastika.
Vigneault denied any knowledge of the claim.
Miller's allegations at the hearing echoed a conspiracy theory circulating among convoy supporters on social media, based on partially obscured images of a man carrying the flag.
The claim drew an immediate response from Enterprise Canada, a Toronto-based firm where Fox serves as a communications and crisis response consultant.
The company called the allegation "absurd" and "despicable" and said Fox wasn't even in Ottawa at the time. Further, the firm said Fox was a Conservative and had supported Pierre Poilievre in the leadership race.
In the statement of claim, filed in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, Fox and Enterprise allege: "These assertions are patently false. Mr. Fox has not been in Ottawa since 2019 when he attended the Manning conservative action conference. Neither Enterprise nor Mr. Fox were in any way involved, either for or against, the Freedom Convoy protests."
The defamation action seeks a total of $2 million in damages against Miller and demands he publicly retract and apologize for the allegations.
None of the allegations in the lawsuit have been proven in court and Miller has not yet filed a defence against them. He did not respond to a request for comment Wednesday.
Miller had also filed an application at the hearing to call Fox as a witness, saying there was evidence, "the flags, and purported protestors using them, were not protestors with the convoy at all, but provocateurs."
The application was supported by an affidavit from protester Shawn Folkes, who claimed he had spoken to the man holding a Nazi flag on Jan. 29.
"I went onto the website for Enterprise Canada and found Brian Fox's profile thereon, including a photo of him," Folkes said in the affidavit.
"I can confirm that Brian Fox is the man I met with the Nazi Flag on January 29th."
But the lawsuit filed by Fox and Enterprise says even Folkes questioned Miller's charge, saying in a social media post, "I hope Miller knows what he's doing because he's gotta have something. How did he get this name?"
Miller also alleged that the photographer who took pictures of a man carrying a Confederate flag was the prime minister's photographer.
In fact, the pictures were taken by longtime Parliament Hill photojournalist Dave Chan, who did work as official photographer for then-prime minister Paul Martin in 2004 and 2006.
During the inquiry, Miller was also involved in a strange incident outside the hearing room, where he appeared to have mistaken Ottawa lobbyist Greg MacEachern for Fox and invited him to testify at the hearing. He acknowledged to reporters afterward that he had made a mistake and said, "Apparently, there's a lot of people out there that look like Mr. Fox."
Lawyers are typically protected from defamation action for things they say in legal proceedings. However, the lawsuit claims Miller "went far beyond the role of counsel, elaborating on, repeating, justifying and amplifying the false assertions against the Plaintiffs outside the Commission hearing, to numerous media, on social media and to anyone who would listen."

Agriculture has always been an industry rooted in science, but more and more it seems the advancement of technology is exploding in the number of applications that improve the way we grow food and fiber today. Leading this technological movement is the Farmers Business Network. Established only two years ago, it is the fastest growing company in agriculture right now. RON's Associate Farm Director Carson Horn had the chance to speak with FBN Co-Founder and Vice President of Products Charles Baron who says FBN can save farmers tens of thousands of dollars on their inputs and significantly increase their bottom line.
FBN can save participating farmers upwards of 50 percent on major inputs, simply by working directly with manufacturers for products including agrochemicals, seed treatments and even fertilizers and ships the product directly to the buyer. The online community built through FBN essentially creates a national price system so a producer in Oklahoma can expect to pay the same price as a grower in Illinois or North Dakota for whatever product they buy.
Also, by participating in the network, farmers have access to local information derived directly from the farmers in their area. This creates real understanding of what tillage or fertilizer practices or what seeds are working best in the region where you farm. With this knowledge, you will know exactly how to plan for the inputs you need to buy, regardless of what the retailer may be saying. FBN is extremely user friendly, too. If you can send an email, says Baron, you can use FBN's analytic tools.
FBN is hosting a national conference in Omaha, December 12-14, 2016 called Farmer2Farmer. Interested in attending? Click here to learn more.

Back in August when I had just launched my site, I wrote about how Blizzard.com can do better with their website. I talked about how their website inspired me to learn web design and development a decade ago and how they seriously needed a makeover.
In a past article, I've already talked about how Drupal bests Wordpress in out of the box page optimization techniques but also, how Wordpress is not far behind. Today, I'd like to continue my series by talking about how Drupal and Wordpress both differ in their implementation of WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get) editors for content.
WYSIWYG editors seem to be standard issue these days. Blogging platforms like Blogger and forum packages like PHPBB have them pre-installed to help users add styling and HTML to their content. In content publishing, having those quick and handy buttons on the top help writers to quickly pull together styling the content without having to know any HTML or CSS.

Charles and Devin Williams aren't brothers, but they do belong to hockey's goaltending brotherhood and have a lot in common.
Both are African-American Michiganders – Charles from Canton and Devin from Saginaw.
Manchester Monarchs goaltender Charles Williams.
Both were go-to goalies: Charles led tiny Canisius College to its first Atlantic Hockey regular season championship last season and Devin backstopped formidable Erie Otters teams in the Ontario Hockey League that featured a young phenom named Connor McDavid .
Both were skipped over by National Hockey League teams in recent drafts. Now both are enjoying impressive rookie seasons in the ECHL.
Charles, 25, has continued his winning ways from Canisius to the ECHL's Manchester Monarchs, a Los Angeles Kings farm team that signed him to a contract in March.
He has a 7-3-1 record in 11 games and a 2.15 goals-against average, third-best in the ECHL. He has a .932 save percentage.

Devin, 22, has been hot for the Tulsa Oilers, a St. Louis Blues ECHL affiliate. He has a 4-2-2 record, 2.80 goals-against average, and a .912 save percentage in 11 games.
Tulsa Oilers goalie Devin Williams.
He was named the CCM/ECHL Goalie of the Month for October after going 4-0 with a 1.83 goals-against average and a .949 save percentage in five games.
Devin signed with Tulsa in September after playing a season of Canadian college hockey at Acadia University in Wolfville, Nova Scotia, where he posted an 8-4-0 record with a 2.80 goalst-against average and .896 save percentage.

He enrolled at Acadia after he watched Erie teammates like McDavid, Nick Baptiste, Alex DeBrincat, and Dylan Strome get snatched up in NHL drafts.Teams took a pass on Devin despite his being a top OHL goalie, winning the Dave Pinkney Trophy in 2013-14 for having the league's lowest goals-against average, being a second-team OHL all-star in 2015-16, and posting 73 wins in 102 games between 2014 and 2016.

While going to college helped keep Devin's pro dreams alive, switching colleges helped re-ignite Charles' pro ambitions.Charles had a decent career at NCAA Division I Ferris State University, posting a 22-15 record, 3.00 goals-against average, and a .899 save percentage over three seasons.
He missed the entire 2014-15 season at Ferris State because of injury. He was granted a fifth year of NCAA eligibility and transferred to Canisius, a D-I school in Buffalo, New York.
Goaltender Charles Williams was a finalist for the Hobey Baker Award, given to NCAA Division I's best college hockey player, for his 2016-17 season at Canisius College in Buffalo, New York (Photo/Canisius College).
There, he compiled a 15-6-4 record in 34 regular season appearances last season and helped lead the Golden Griffins on a 17-game unbeaten string.A 2017 Hobey Baker Award finalist, Charles led all NCAA D-I goalies with a .946 save percentage, tied for second with 6 shutouts, and his 1.83 goals-against average was second-best in the nation .
No wonder that Canisius named Charles its Male Athlete of the Year for 2017.


I chose Kyoto apartment 13 because it was perfect for my needs.
I'm a student and the apartment is just few minutes away from my school.
It has great access to the convenience stores, sightseeing areas and famous shopping district with all the new cultures of Kyoto combine.
Kyoto apartment staffs are very friendly and the apartment is maintained perfectly.
I am completely satisfied living here, in Kyoto Apartment 13.
Since 2008, every summer of every years, i used to travel in kyoto and go in apartment 1.
I chosed this apartment because his location. You have 2 conveniant stores and 1 supermarcket at 5 minutes of walk.
and hankyu line in 5 min. So I could go to visit a lot of place in Kyoto, and even Osaka very easily.
You share a big apartment with one people, or you can rent an apartment with someone you know.
Living in Kyoto Apartment 7 is a great experience!
(Japanese, Taiwanese, Korean, French, Spanish,..).
and it's very close to the geisha neighbourhood, so you are bound to run into a real geisha now and then.
There are also 2 supermarkets and plenty of smaller shops/restaurants nearby.
The apartment itself has only been opened a few months, so everything is brand new. I highly recommend this apartment!
I'm very happy with everything about this place – the room, the building, the area and the service provided by the company.
The neighborhood is quiet but conveniently close to many shops and interesting sightseeing spots.
Transportation is also very convenient, and if you have a bicycle you can easily cycle from here to most places of interest in Kyoto.
I'm a longer-term resident and have had a great time here. I can recommend this place to anyone, for any period of stay.
If you are looking for a hassle-free, fun place to live in Kyoto and care about the quality of your house, this is a great option to consider.
We choosed Kyoto Apartment 1 because of its possibility to stay in original japanese style rooms (tatami-floor).
The accomodation is very conveniently located, close to various bus and subway lines.
We´ve been there for three times and planning to come again next summer.
The appartement is really well located, Shijo is really at the heart of the city.
The staff is very friendly & helpful. The bathrooms are usually not very clean, but the rooms are nice with Tatami.
I choose this apartment because it's quite close the the Hankyu.
station. Furthermore it is not so complicated to move in. Everything is there for the start.
Starting from the bed, internet etc. ending with the microwave .
Nice country, nice people, nice apartment, it is really convenient and comfortable.
This apartment is really comfortable to reach a lot of places, since it's located near Hyakumanben and Demachiyanagi Station. The inside is very comfortable and really bright! If I'll come back to Kyoto, I will definitely stay there again!
I chose this apartment because the rent is cheap and it's quiet near from my university. I really like living here because the apartment is nice, the people are friendly, and there is a Torinosuke at the first floor where I can have fun with my friends. I absolutely enjoy living here!


Integrated Query (LINQ) includes a standard query operator to concatenate two sequences of the same type, but nothing to append or prepend a single item to a collection. However, these useful methods are simple to create.
Sometimes you will wish to add a single item to an existing sequence, either appending to the end of the collection or prepending as the new first item. LINQ includes the Concat operator, which concatenates two sequences of the same underlying type, but this does not allow the addition of just one object. You could convert the single item to a sequence with only one element and combine this with a collection. However, creating a pair of new, reusable methods for appending and prepending can make your code easier to read.
In this article we will create two such methods, naming them Append and Prepend. Each will be called in the same manner. You'll pass the sequence to be extended and the additional item. Both methods will follow the standard LINQ pattern by being extension methods that validate their parameters immediately but return the adjusted sequences using deferred execution.
To follow the examples, create a new console application project and add a class file named, "AppendPrependExtensions". This is where we'll create the extension methods.
Let's tackle the Append method first. The public part of the method is responsible for validating the arguments. To allow any type of collection to be appended to, we'll pass it into the method using the IEnumerable<T> interface. The new item will be of the type "T", declared as a generic type parameter. We'll check that the sequence is not null but we'll allow the single item to be null, as this is a valid case. If the sequence is valid, we'll call the AppendImpl method to perform the actual append.
AppendImpl is quite simple. All we need to do is loop through the provided collection, returning each item in turn using yield return. This generates the iterator we require for deferred execution. Once the sequence is exhausted we only need to yield the appended item, which will appear last in the new sequence.
The Prepend and PrependImpl methods are almost identical to their appending counterparts. The only difference is in the implementation method, which returns the prepended item before, rather than after, the contents of the provided sequence.
We can test the methods by appending and prepending items to a sequence. The code below creates an initial sequence as an integer array. It then uses the Append and Prepend methods to extend the sequence twice.


Early Bird Herbal Tea is an herbal tea hand-blended to perfection.
This herbal tea blend is perfect for first thing in the morning as a nice vibrant wake up tea without the excessive caffeine of coffee or tea. The herbs in this tea all work together to promote increased energy and concentration, improve digestion, and help ward off illness.
This tea includes Ginkgo Biloba Leaf, Bilberry Leaf, Peppermint Leaf, Cloves, and Ginger Root.
this is one of my favorite blends :) perfect in the morning or anytime during the day . the flavor is delightfully crisp and is a great pick me up and also works nicely with a big meal . i absolutely love it iced too; very refreshing !!! thanks savvy !!!
This is a great tasting tea blend. I used 1 teaspoon in a tea filter and brewed it for 4 minutes. It was sweet enough on it's own that it didn't need much additional sweetener. My husband is trying to get away from coffee to promote a more alkaline body but still needs something to help him wake up in the morning. This could be the tea!

Unter einem Kundenleitsystem beziehungsweise einer Aufrufanzeige versteht man eine Art elektronischer Wegweiser für die Steuerung von wartenden Personen. Sie kommen dort zum Einsatz, wo relativ viele Kunden gleichzeitig eintreffen. Ein Kundenleitsystem kann den Kunden die Wartezeit angenehmer machen, braucht er doch nicht mehr in einer Warteschlange etwa vor einem Schalter anzustehen. Das hat aber auch für den Betreiber des Systems Vorteile. Der Kunde hat Zeit, seine Auslagen anzusehen oder Informationen zu lesen.

Ein solches System besteht grundsätzlich aus vier Elementen:
 einer Ticket-Ausgabe
 einer Aufruf-Anzeige
 den Aufruf-Modulen
 einer Steuerungseinheit

Ticket-Ausgabe
An der Ticket-Ausgabe bezieht der Kunde ein Ticket, eine Wartemarke. Dieses Ticket besteht im Wesentlichen aus einer Nummer, kann aber auch noch weitere Informationen wie geschätzte Wartezeit und Reklame enthalten. Technisch kann die Ticketausgabe in der einfachsten Form ein Halter für eine Rolle mit vorgedruckten Tickets sein. Die am häufigsten verwendete Form ist ein Gerät mit einem kleinen Rollenpapierdrucker ähnlich der Kassenbondrucker und einem Taster, über welchen der Kunde die Ausgabe eines Tickets auslöst.
Die modernste und vielseitigste, aber auch teuerste Variante ist die einer Touchscreen-Konsole. Diese Variante kommt vor allem dann zum Einsatz, wenn mehrere Warteschlangen (z. B. bei der Deutschen Bahn Fahrkarten, Gepäckaufgabe, Geldwechsel, Information im Bahnhof) und eine Benutzerführung in mehreren Sprachen benötigt werden.

Aufruf-Anzeige
An der Aufruf-Anzeige wird den Wartenden angezeigt, welche Wartenummer sich zu welchem Schalter oder Beratertisch begeben soll. Die Aufruf-Anzeigen verfügen über einen Lautsprecher oder zumindest einen Gong, damit ein neuer Aufruf den Wartenden auch akustisch (auch Sprachaufrufe für Sehbehinderte sind möglich) angezeigt werden kann.
Es gibt Aufrufanzeigen in Form von Fallblattanzeigen (veraltet), LED-Displays und Flachbildschirmen beliebiger Größe. Die LED-Displays haben in der heute verbreiteten Flut von Flachbildschirmen etwas den Vorteil, weniger übersehen zu werden; die Flachbildschirme dagegen sind günstiger und sehr viel flexibler in deren Konfiguration.

Aufruf-Modul
Die Personen, welche Kunden aufrufen können, benötigen in irgendeiner Form eine Einrichtung, um dies zu tun. Je nach Kundenleitsystem kann dies ein einfacher Druckknopf, ein etwas komfortableres Gerät mit gewissen Anzeigefunktionen oder ein kleines Programmmodul sein.

Steuerungseinheit
Bei den günstigsten Kundenleitsystemen mit Papierrollen-Tickets ist die Steuerungseinheit reine Elektronik. Ansonsten handelt es sich um eine spezielle Software, welche die gesamte Kommunikation zwischen den Einheiten und Modulen steuert, die Ticket-Warteschlangen kontrolliert, aber auch in der Lage ist, zusätzliche Funktionen wie beispielsweise die Ansteuerung eines Relais für die automatische Öffnung einer Tür zu übernehmen.
